Well,
Did you read my entire e-mail? I mentioned that if it didn't work with vo+F1,
then try fn+vo+F1. Basically, just add the fn key as well.

Hi Scott. I appologize for that whole Apple Hater comment. I said that

Apple products I take that back. Yeah, when I updated my Itunes, I didn't like
a few things that it did. That whole grid view thing was stupid though
That's pretty cool updates to this game will be released just like that.
On the Windows version I think only one version was released and no

Been a while since I posted here but i just listed a fully accessible App
on Apple's App Store. The App is a Braille reference tool called Braille

What I find interesting is that, when I first got the thing, all I had to do

Hi guys
For those of you who have trouble pushing a lot of keys, do you know that you
can lock your voiceover keys? If you press the voiceover keys plus the
semicolon key, then it locks your VO keys. Doing that again unlocks them.

Hi,
I found out that locking the vo keys, the Command key loses its function, and I
cannot type when I'm on the edit field.
So I think locking the vo keys affects the general functions.

Yes it does. It is basically as though you had managed to glue your control and
option keys down, so any other key you press will automatically have those two
keys added to it. I have never found it a helpful feature, particularly after
mapping my vo keys to caps lock.

Hi guys
I just want to comment on my observation so far on adding memory to my Mac Book
Pro. I had 4 gigabytes before and now I have 8. I have noticed a difference
when using a braille display with grade 2 braille. I am not finding as many
mistakes where keys are left out of the translation.
I have used this feature in Safari, although I guess I could have used Quick
Nav just as well. I sometimes have used it if I needed to use three or four
keys together which involved the VO keys. I didn't feel like changing my VO
kemys to anything else, so I use it sometimes.
On Dec 14, 2012,
I'm not sure why this function is useful, but maybe it was before Snow
Leopard? I think that QuickNav also pretty much eliminates the need
for this.

I've already recommended to the few people that I know who are

I'm a very big fan of the Trackpad. It makes navigating the Mac so so

Hi all,
I just got an Air for my business, so I can't use it for personal stuff, but I
can still play with it! I'm unboxing it now, and I found two cables. One is a
normal charger, but the other is just a thick cable with prongs on one end and
what looks like a Mac Mini connection on the other.
That's the extention cord for the charger. The little piece that has the
foldable prongs on it can be removed from the charger, and that extention
cord attached to make a longer cord.

Hi,
Maybe I'm misunderstanding but, Smart Playlists normally cannot be pasted into.
Smart Playlists are populated using search and matching criteria that you set

Dear Listers,

This option makes sure that your backups are actually usable. According to what

Once you do VM-M twice to get to the various widgets in the menu bar you
