Hi all
OK, this one might be a bit of a challenge. I've been enlisted to assist a
teacher who has a pupil aged four, with dexterity issues, who she wants to try
and educate in the use of the iPad. Does anybody happen to know whether this
kind of accessibility is supported at all? This
Overall, iTunes 11 is certainly no worse than iTunes 10 on the Mac when it
comes to accessibility. However, Apple could do more to improve Voiceover
support (I can't comment on Windows, as not tested it there yet).
The first item/button Voiceover lands on is the rewind button, and there is a
find where it says toolbar, interact with it and use the
voiceover arrow keys, go to where it says favourites, and inside
that menu there are different options and checkboxes and audio
description is mentioned before an unchecked checkbox. check it
with vo space before you download your tv
Morning Chris,
A superb summary. Have you ever thought of passing this very information on to
Apple via the accessibility team? It would probably be ignored but worth it
nonetheless in my view.

Hi Gordon!
Well I do not know if this will be useful but under accessibility there is
assistive touch which is as far as I know is for this kind of situation!

hi chris, another annoying thing i've found in the store is that you have to
interact with a song's group to play a preview of the song, where as before the
button was visible.

Good luck.

I doubt this will work as apple I don't think apple will do this over the
