Goggles works okay too. I was able to get my computer restarted with no sound or braille using that and then able to fix it from there. On 5/15/2017 4:13 PM, Aleeha Dudley wrote: While KNFB is excellent and I do own a copy, Prizmo Go is a very nice free option that will work almost as well

I'm a bit of a Johnny-come-lately on this thread, but has anyone mentioned the BlindTunes scripts? I haven't used iTunes in ages, but I used these scripts with a fair degree of success when I did use the program. I've since changed computers and simply haven't gotten around to putting iTunes

Hi all, Sometimes I want to get rid of the on-screen keyboard in order to get it out of the way to look at parts of the screen that it obscures, but I have not been able to figur a way to do this without scrubbing to go back, which leaves the screen I'm working in and then going back to that

Hi, Judging from what I am reading here, though I haven't tried this myself, it sounds like what it takes is a click of the actual hardware mouse. Perhaps it would be useful to try grabbing the mouse with one hand, holding it perfectly still, routing your mouse cursor to the button that
