Look at the dictation area of the Keyboard system preferences. I generally prefer using the hit Fn button twice to associating with a keyword. I have found otherwise sometimes Voiceover causes dictation to start. All the commands listed in the Accessibility area should still be available.

Hi, To clarify. What's likely happened here is that when you attempted to create the BootCamp partition, something went wrong. Obvious, I know, but it needs to be said first. So, you now have the Macintosh HD partition using up half the space of the 250 GB drive and the rest is unallocated

Re: mac partition questiohn

What you're missing is the way Apple does the math. Your available storage space is being dynamically allocated between what is actually used and what's still available for use by Mac or some other installation, like BootCamp. At least, that's what apfs is doing. The wolf writes: > the mac book

Re: mac partition questiohn

You need to learn to use diskutil from the command line. This is best accomplished by ssh into the Mac from another machine, because you're more likely to get good screen reader support that way. Voice Over isn't the best when run in Terminal, which is the native way to do this. Note that

If you go in to computer and find your harddrive or possibly Macintosh hd, And do a get info, command key I gives you get info, Then work your way through and find the size and storage useage of your drive. Unless you have a lot of stuff being stored on your drive then something sounds wrong.
