Hi all,
I'm almost embarrassed to ask this question but I can't seem to figure out how
to get VO to start automatically at my log in screen. Currently I'm waiting
until I'm sure the mac is at the log in screen and then start VO with command
f5. I'm then able to navigate to my password field and
Go to System Preferences and then Users & Groups. At the very bottom of
that you'll find the "click the lock to make changes button" which will
ask for your username and password. Once authenticated you'll be able to
make changes to Login Options. In the Login Options you should find a
checkbox
An inexcusable defect as far as I am concerned.

Hi Kevin, to which defect are you referring? VO can indeed be configured to
speak at the login screen, as per the message posted by Chris. Even if you have
FileVault enabled, a full disk encryption system, there is audible feedback as
you are unlocking your drive. I don’t think there’s a defect
Thanks Chris
I fumbled around a bit before finding the right list item to select and then
the check box but it is now set.

The defect is that the OS does not automatically
invoke VO when VO has been previously turned on
in an account. It refuses to do this even if
there is only one account and it has VO turned on.
In addition, the setting you describe is not exactly in an easy to find place.

Great! I left out some of the exact detail as I hoped you could figure
out some of the inbetween steps without my having to say VO-down 9 times
and then right twice etc. Plus I wasn't 100% sure those would be exactly
right if we were on different versions of OSX.

Its not a defect for there exists a setting to enable this. Perhaps
not all want or need VO speaking at login. Have you emailed Apple and
asked them to make this on by default? Its not a defect tho perhaps you
may think its a defect in reasoning. Maybe Apple knows why its been made
an option
