So, I'm forever doing Command F5 before logging in. It's getting old, but I'm also not finding where to undo this choice and choose to have Voice Over auto-enabled on startup for the login. I'm poking around in Users and Groups but not finding this as a login option. Seems I'm missing something obvious, but I am stumped. This is Big Sur 11.15.2. Any help gratefully accepted.

You would probably have to run the audio out of the iPad and then back in. That really isn’t practical. I think the Macintosh solution is a good idea. Do you need portability or can you make do with a Mac mini and a wireless keyboard? Do you have a budget for this project? Audio recordings can eat up a great deal of disk space quickly. A 1TB or larger hard drive is a good idea.

I really appreciate all the great information, and thoughts. It has really helped me to understand things, when it comes to Macbooks. Karen asked if I would like to explain my goals. I appreciate this, because I think that could be helpful. I think it might help me figure out what exactly I might need. So my main goal is to be able to purchase a device, such as a Mac, or an iPad, so that I can record audio. I am huge into collecting audio described content. We have Spectrum cable. Some of the channels that carry audio described content that I would like to capture, don't carry the audio description over my cable box. However, I can get it, using the Spectrum App. So I would like to be able to use a program like audio hijack, and capture the streaming audio. I want to go to the Spectrum site, and stream the channel I want, and capture the audio description. That is the main thing I am hoping to do. I could use my windows laptop. But in order to do this, I would have to go through many steps to make this happen. Including purchasing a sound card. But then I would not be able to easily access my laptop for other things. Such as checking mail, and all the other things that I do. These are my thoughts. What do you all think? I would consider purchasing an iPad. I am open to doing this. But when I had one years ago, the main thing I didn't care for, was how the screen would sometimes be in colomns. There didn't seem a way to make this optional. Or stop it from happening. I found this to be rather frustrating, and chalenging for me. But also, does the audio hijack program even work on an iPad? Thank you, and I look forward to hearing what you all might have to say.

The programs you use have their own requirements. If you use external recording related equipment, that will matter as well. I hope? this offer comes from a reliable source, so the machine is as advertised etc. Do you want to share more on your goals?

I am very interested in purchasing this. However, I would like to get some opinions on it, if at all possible. I don't know much about using a Mac. I have always wanted to use one. I know in some ways they can have limits though. I would mainly like to be able to do a lot of different audio recording. I currently use an HP laptop for the majority of things. And probably still will. Anyway, this Macbook Air has 4 Gigs of RAM, Intel Core I 5, 1.6 GHZ, 128 GB SSD. It doesn't state what version of the operating system it comes with. Does this possibly mean it doesn't include one? Also, how likely is it that this could be updated, if at some point I wanted to do this? Any thoughts are much appreciated.
