Thanks, but I use Face Time for a weekly music lesson that now has to be done 
virtually so I can’t use headphones. I will keep this in mind as a possibility 
once I dig up a pair of headphones that have such a buttone on them for other 
calls.

Hi! 
If you have headphones connected to your Mac you can just press the answer 
button on your headphones.

     It’s hit or miss. I’m not sure if it’s based on what you are doing at the 
moment, but sometimes, the focus is in the window for me, sometimes it’s not. I 
haven’t paid enough attention yet to figure out that mystery yet.

        If the focus is on the window, you should be able to VO-arrow to the, 
accept, button and then VO-space. If you have to use the notification center to 
answer, then use the approach I mentioned before. Usually, for me, the 
VoiceOver focus is right in the FaceTime call window and I just have to 
navigate to the, accept, button.

        John,

        Thanks, but just to make sure I understand, should I do these steps 
after doing a VO+O to get into the notification area, or as soon as the call 
comes through do it right where the VO focus is at?

          VO-command-space on the notifications and VO-down arrow down the 
options. You can then VO-spacebar.

          Hello All,

          Since I updated to Big Sur on my 2014 Mac Book Pro, I have not been 
able to answer incoming Face Time calls on the computer. I know that VO+O takes 
me to the notification center, but I am unsure what to do to try and find the 
answer/accept button on incoming calls. I am able to place out-going with Face 
Time, however.

          Does any one else have this problem and know the solution? And, 
second, is it a bug or just my problem with not knowing what to do?

          I called Apple Accessibility to ask for some assistance and I was 
told that I really should not update as soon as the OS updates come out, but 
rather wait a year or even two. It used to be so simple to either swipe on the 
track pad or VO+ Left/right-arrow to the needed button.

          Seems to me it has something to do with accessing the notifications 
since I could not even get a screen sharing session going with their tech 
support. 

          Thanks for any pointers in the proper direction.

          Eileen
