Hi Donna, Yeah I just thought though that may be using sirii might bee away to get around the new VO command,
Just ask siri to turn vo on? I wonder if it will work? It does on the IOS devices if they have Siri enabled. As for recovery mode, I use it a lot for machines I’m dealing with at work as it can give you a few extras such as resetting an admin password. I’t really comes down to a case of if you need it you’ll figure it out From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Donna Goodin Sent: Wednesday, 28 December 2016 2:25 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: command for turning on VO on the new Macs? Hi Simon, I didn't get to spend a ton of time in the store, but my sense is that there will be a learning curve with the touch bar. Maybe not so much a learning curve as a significant adjustment period. :) In the seven and a half years I've used the Mac, I've never needed recovery mode, so I can't say anything about that.

Hi everyone it’d be interesting how you turn on voiceover in recovery, because i heard on a podcast that triple tapping the sensor 3 times when holding down command key doesn’t work in recovery I’m curious about that! Thanks. have a great festive season. cheers gerry have a nice day Email: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Skype: gerry.cook1 Twitter: @gerrycook52 On 26 Dec 2016, at 2:04 pm, Donna Goodin <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Actually, there is an F5. If you hold down the FN key, the touch bar displays all the traditional function keys. If VO is on, they are announced as F1, F2, etc. Cheers, Donna On Dec 25, 2016, at 8:43 PM, Simon Fogarty <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: On the new MBP there is no F5, I believe it's command and tap the power key 3 times Or at least the key with the finger print sensor -----Original Message----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>[mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of E.T.

I'm enjoying a quiet moment between two Christmas celebrations and wanted to post this question to the list. I had the chance to test drive the new MBP the other day, and Santa was generous, so I think I'll be getting one soon. When I was in the Apple store, I couldn't remember the command for activating VO. Can someone refresh my memory? The salesperson did get VO turned on, but he did so in a way that would be tricky without eyeballs. I know this question has come up before, so sorry for asking again. I thought I'd saved that message, but can't seem to put my hands on it. Cheers, Donna -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
