Learning the mac sure is a big learning curve. Simple tasks you knew how to do
under windows suddenly become tricky until you know the correct keystrokes.
Ultimately however, once you've mastered the basics of what you want to know,
you'll pick up on things much faster and everything will make
I've had my mac for around 2 years now, and the thing that really makes me

The fact is, learning any computer operating system environment is difficult

Hi Everyone,
I gather that word processing is very accessible on the Mac. How about
spreadsheets? How well does Numbers work with Voiceover?
Thanks,

I don't bother with formatting data, and as far as I can tell, charts are just

In IOS, in the vo settings, there is a on off switch for pitch change. Not

Well you may be able to get the model name and by doing a google search you can
determine if it supports wireless connectivity, but if your sister is sighted
