If you press VO-H and then go to sounds help, there are 75 different VO sounds. Now I know that triple beep after moving to an item in the dock is that actions are available. Jonathan > On Nov 20, 2020, at 17:33, joseph hodge wrote: > > If you do vo f1 twice do you have a system

Re: mac OS big sur: repeating ping sound

If you do vo f1 twice do you have a system notification? Mine was doing this and I realized it was trying to get me to confirm something. Once I did f1 twice told it whatever it is gone. > On Nov 20, 2020, at 4:22 PM, 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries > wrote: > > Hi, > > I can understand

Re: mac OS big sur: repeating ping sound

Hi, I can understand how this would be annoying. Regretfully, I have not heard such in my Mac experience, so can't give you anything specific. I have two thoughts: 1.) Call Apple Support in a manner where they can hear your Mac making that sound. After all, they sold you the machine, right?

Re: mac OS big sur: repeating ping sound

Hi, Here is the link to the audio: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d86etaiungfma41/repeated_ping.wav?dl=0 When I mean ping, I don't mean the CL tool to ping servers, but a ping sound. Thanks, Yuma > On 18 Nov 2020, at 7:55 pm,

Re: mac OS big sur: repeating ping sound

Hi, I don't see the link. Could you maybe paste it into the body of the message? Alternative, you might want to search running processes for an instance of ping and kill the process id. The following terminal command may help: sudo killall ping Best, Janina Yuma Decaux writes: > Hi All, >

Re: mac OS big sur: why does it have to behave like I'm using an iPad

Least path to resistance is really what I am objectively looking for, and in this case there's spurious actions required to get there. on the long run, as large numbers tend to explode over multiple iterations, this becomes a waste of my productivity. The tabbing was great for the messages app,

Re: mac OS big sur: why does it have to behave like I'm using an iPad

You are correct. I too have realised that we have to perform extra steps to accomplish certain outcomes. Yes, in some edit boxes you have to press vo+spacebar to make them editable. This happens regularly in Messages app. In the same app, it’s much harder to navigate now and be sure you

Re: mac OS big sur: browsing save dialog boxes

Well, there is a bug in column list view where the standard arrow keys do not work to move left and right. As for your question I just created a folder in list view in the finder and focus went right to it. See if this was a single occurrence and perhaps if your view was different.

Re: mac OS big sur: why does it have to behave like I'm using an iPad

I'm not seeing this either. command-option-F still brings me to the search dialog, and just typing characters works fine when in the message list. Do you perhaps have quicknav turned on? Best wishes, Jonathan Cohn > On Nov 15, 2020, at 07:47, Yuma Decaux wrote: > > Hi All,

Re: mac OS big sur: web navigation using arrow keys only

I haven't ben on a lot of sites since seeing this message, but I don't believe this is the case. Some sites do put in keyboard handlers that forget to allow default actions for keys they don't use perhaps you are running into that? There is an option in the web area of VoiceOver utility to

Re: mac OS big sur, compact list of questions after upgrading

Hello, I am also seeing the issues with column view in the finder. A work around is to use VO plus left and right arrows instead of just the arrow keys. Also make sure you interact using VO plus shift plus down arrow. This is a bug that has been reported to apple. Greg Wocher > On Nov 14,

How are you trying to expand/collapse subdirectories in the finder’s list view? Move to a subdirectory and type VO-Backslash to expand/collapse it. Let us know whether that works. > On Nov 13, 2020, at 23:15, Yuma Decaux wrote: > > Hi ALl, > > I've upgraded to mac OS big sur, and it has

Re: mac OS big sur, compact list of questions after upgrading

I will answer some of yours and ask one of mine. First, column view, you now have to VO Right and Left Arrow to get in and out of folders. The extra sound you are hearing I think is the image recognition which you will find options for in VO preferences. My issue. I use Siri to make phone

Re: mac OS catalina, selecting multiple files

Hi, Make sure that you have interacted with the table, scroll area or wherever the files are located. Use VO navigation, not arrow navigation. Navigate to the first file you wish to select, press VO-cmd-return,continue with VO navigation to the next file then press VO-cmd-return to select
