Hi, I tried installing the Kindle for the Mac software, and it isn't accessible. But maybe some low vision users can report back on their experience? If you do get the app, you'll start up in the (unspoken) text field for your Amazon login name. Type that in, press tab, then type in

It's a problem with gmail rather than Mail, specifically. Sometimes taking all accounts offline, restarting and taking all accounts online again solves this problem. I've seen it on multiple machines with other people using gmail accounts. On Mar 18, 2010, at 11:13 AM, Sarah Alawami wrote:

Thanks for the tip. Seems that they have gone up to $189.95. I'll check around some used stuff sites to see if I can turn up something. I was expecting the price to drop after being discontinued, not shoot up. CB Esther wrote: Hello Shaun, Chris, Scott, and Others, This is an answer to a

Hi all, I have a strange problem with pages: I was reading the manual of pages with the hotkeys to look for the command to take a new page. I found the command: command+enter to take a new page. Unfortunately, when I was in the textfield, this command was not possible at that moment (I hear a

Enter is not the same key as return. It often times does the same thing while editing text but for commands they are treated differently. On a full-size keyboard Enter is the bottom right on your numeric keypad. On My laptop it is the button to the right of the command key to the right of the

Hi Christina, OK, I misunderstood your question and assumed that, when you were speaking of birthday fields, you were speaking about iCal. I now understand that you're referring to Address Book instead. OK, this is a complicated explanation. I'll try to make it as clear as I can. Sit back and

Thanks so very much. That is a lot of work. :) VO keeps pushing me out of the date field while I'm using the vo plus up or down arrows to change the values. I appreciate your explanation and I'm relieved to know I don't seem to be doing anything wrong. It's just a lot of work. I will play

Christina, Remember, in Address Book, don't use Control-Option-up or down arrow. That's only for iCal. Again, in Address Book, just use the up and down arrow keys by themselves once you've interacted. Follow the instructions carefully. HTH Slau On Mar 18, 2010, at 5:55 PM, Christina wrote:

Hello William, Let me try to expand on Chris' answer about differences between the Enter key and the Return key. On older Mac laptops, such as my PowerBook G4, there is a separate Enter key located along the bottom row of keys where the right Option key is located on your MacBook --

I think this is inconsistent with the general VO behavior and should be reported as a bug to Apple. What would be the best way to reach this to Apple? Thanks, mani On Mar 18, 7:55 pm, Christina blindmaclo...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks so much.  I got it to work now thanks to you.  If I don't use
