Hello all, about doing a clean install, I have noticed that I can't import all my vo-settings , saved in a .voprefs file into a clean install of Lion. Specially, I discover that the commander-settings are not imported. I have also tried to import only the trackpad-commands of a sl-install but none of them where detected.
Is it a known problem that vo-settings can't be imported completely in Lion and , if this is so, is there a solution/workaround? Accessibility knows about this but isn't doing more then reading my possible bug report. kind regards, William Windels Op 13-nov.-2011, om 23:28 heeft Missy Hoppe het volgende geschreven: > I'm using 1.5.
