Are you pressing FN to adjust the volume? or trying to adjust the volume without pressing FN? I am wondering if the behaviour of your function keys has changed? On 30 Jul 2012, at 04:19, Donna Goodin doniado...@me.com wrote: Hi Chris, That's one of the weird things. Pressing those keys

Both of my machines always now speak on login, but when I upgraded my Macbook I was not hearing speech at login. After selecting the option in System Preferences and enabling function keys in the keyboard prefs, I was then able to start VO at login by pressing command + F5 and turned up the

It should still be in system preferences under the users and groups setting. Choose the log in options group and click the lock to enable making changes. Then there'll be a check box to have voiceover start at the login screen. Good luck, rachel On Jul 29, 2012, at 8:56 AM, Teresa Cochran

Hi Teresa, the option is in System Prefs under Users and login options, but checking it doesn't same to make it work. I've written to Apple about this, you might want to do so as well. Best, Donna On Jul 29, 2012, at 10:56 AM, Teresa Cochran vegaspipistre...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, all, ML

Donna, I did at first have this issue on one of my Macs. After ticking the box in login options for VO to kick in on login did not work for me. So I hit VO + F5 at login and turned the volume up and it worked. I am going to assume you have already tried this. One thing I have noticed though

Thanks, folks. I had forgotten that the login options were in a list and I kept missing it. I checked the box and tried logging back in, and it works. As far as I'm aware, VO-f5 simply describes the item in the VO cursor. Thanks, Teresa On Jul 29, 2012, at 8:19 PM, Donna Goodin
