I agree, I just wished someone could write a itunes replacement program that would make it very easy to transfer content to your ios device!

Sorry, but it's not the job of the screen reader manufacturers to make iTunes accessible, it's Apple's; from what I've been hearing about the latest iTunes update, they've failed rather spectacularly regarding accessibility. Doing anything with apps has been a problem in iTunes 12 from the beginning. Ringtones still work like they used to, and I wish apps would go back to being checkboxes that you could check or uncheck, and then hit the apply button to sync or remove them from your device. Also, file sharing in iTunes 12 has gotten really, really crappy!


Thanks,
Ari

Hello Rick,

I spent quite some time using iTunes 12.4 on my Windows 10 laptop with the latest version of Jaws. I must say that, while some aspects of iTunes remain somewhat accessible, my experience was definitely disappointing.

Now I say this realizing that one's mileage may vary depending upon how they use iTunes.

I was certainly able to obtain and manage various resources from within iTunes but the overall experience was, somehow deflating, to say the least.

Having said this, I have full confidence in the developers of both Jaws and Window Eyes to step up to the proverbial plate on this and smooth out the rough-edges.

I am sadden, however, at the fact that those of us who use Windows screen-readers can so easily lose access to what has become a vital tool even with all of this so-called marvelous technology around us.

I am not going to get on my soapbox, here, but this kind of thing is exactly what motivated me to purchase my first Mac 7 years ago.

I am not trying to convert anyone, I'm just saying.

Mark

Hi Mark. Perhaps visually, it may look like the old sidebar but from a screen reader's perspective unless I'm missing something, it doesn't feel like the old sidebar at all and I am not in the phone view. The sidebar is enabled but not even close IMHO. In addition, several lists are broken where focused isn't being voiced as you arrow throught them.



Best regards,

Rick Alfaro

Hello Everyone,

I am posting this to both the V iPhone and Mac Visionaries Mailing List.

I am so surprised that no one has mentioned the return of the iTunes SideBar in iTunes 12.4. (smile)

If you didn't know it, it's back and looks almost like it did in iTunes 11 and earlier.

Yep, it's true.  From the View menu, select Show SideBar.

Enjoy,

Mark
