Re: Accessible Internet Browsers For the Mack and VoiceoverwithMountain Lion
Basically hit cmd down arrow on the dmg to open it. This mounts the virtual disk in the computers list. YOu can then if nothing happens hit cmd shift c to open the list then cmd down arrow to open the now mounted virtual volume When you copy the app from that to the apps folder, getting there with cmd shift a then hitting cmd v to paste, after hitting cmd c to copy the file from the virtual disk you then go back to the computer's list with cmd shift c to eject the virtual volume with cmd e. It sounds like a lot but trust me it is not 1. mount the image with cmd down arrow. 2. hit cmd shift c and then down arrow on the folder on of the virtual disk. 3. find the .app file then cmd c to copy, 4. hit cmd shift a and cmd v. 5. hit cmd c and cmd e on the disk.

Re: Accessible Internet Browsers For the Mack and VoiceoverwithMountain Lion
Hi Anne - Thanks for the link. Just took a look, and it seems this is only for TV? My main requirement is to be able to access missed BBC radio programmes. Have I got it wrong, will this download give access to radio as well as TV? - Andy - Original Message - From: "Anne Robertson" To: "Mac OSX & iOS Accessibility" Sent: Monday, July 08, 2013 11:59 AM Subject: Re: Accessible Internet Browsers For the Mack and VoiceoverwithMountain Lion Hello Andy, Don't despair!
