Re: Anyone upgraded to IOS 17?

Hi. What he's talking about is text tones not ringtones. If you select a new text tone, you can't go to your custom tone because it's not there. I heard a rumor that resetting your phone's settings will get the tones back but I'm taking it with a grain of salt until someone else tries it. I'll

Hey Mark. Welcome back. Well for me I bought my M1 MacBook Air at the beginning of the month and I'm still in love with her. I named her Diva. I named her after a certain girl I'm interested in. I don't have a lot of features I'd like to see, just a few fixes I'd like to see across all

Re: App for using Facebook on the mack

As Herbie said, you have to use the website. There used to be an app called Trillian that worked very well with Facebook but unfortunately, like Twitter, Facebook discontinued support for third party apps. With that being said however, there is a Mac app for Facebook Messenger on the app store.

Re: QuentinC's Play room?

Hi. I know this is late but I find when using the Playroom on Safari with screen reader mode which of course uses Voiceover, speech interrupts itself when I play games on it. My speech is at a normal rate which is what I like so that could be the problem. For that I use Microsoft Edge with the

Accessible Whatsapp Client

Hey all. If you're still looking for an accessible Whatsapp client, I have good news for you. The developers of Whatsapp have made a catalist version of the client that is supposed to mimic what you see on your phone. I've been testing it out for the past week and it's very accessible. And yes,

Re: Accessible Twitter client for mac

Yeah. But according to the Tweezecake group I follow on Telegram, they say that it only works for people that have previously used Tweezecake for Twitter. So if Andrew tries to create an account it'll probably deny him. > On Jan 20, 2023, at 2:55 PM, Herbie Allen wrote: > > There are a

Re: Accessible Twitter client for mac

Hi Andrew. Unfortunately as I've been stating all week that now that Elon Musk has decided to do what he did, there are no third party apps that work with Twitter. You either have to use the native website or the native app. > On Jan 20, 2023, at 1:38 PM, Herbie Allen wrote: > > For the

Re: Anyone Having a Problem with Nightowl?

Well Eric, I want to believe your three other possibilities, but due to Musk's previous actions like firing the accessibility team and forcing almost all the employees out of there by their resignations, it sounds like he don't give a damn about us who don't use the native Twitter app or the

Re: Anyone Having a Problem with Nightowl?

Hey guys. Well for what it's worth, it seems like this was an internal decision to end support for third party Twitter clients. Twiterrific still works on the Mac, but for how long Twitter and Elon Musk lets it remain active is to be seen. It's a sad time for sure, and because of this, I've

Re: How to stop always being asked for the password

Keep in mind though that if you were to get rid of the password option, you won't be able to set certain preferences in privacy and security like allowing third party apps from Safari. They've done this since macOS 10.10 and it's really annoying. I'd rather not have a password but it is what it

Hi. I know this thread ended a few days ago, but I just wanted to add that 2017 MacBook Air models can't be upgraded to Ventura natively. I say natively because it can still be done. There are just a lot of steps involved and Apple frowns upon it. I won't say how you do it on here but if you're

Re: MacOs Ventura is Out.

I love Ventura. I've been beta testing it since its release back in June. The one thing I love is we finally have the Zoe voice. Zoe premium is awesome. I wish they would bring it back to iOS 16. And Anders, I'm with you. I'll never use Eloquence because I came to the Mac ecosystem to get away
