Re: if i get a Mac, how do we set up VoiceOver?
Brenda, The keystroke to turn on voiceover is command + f5. Same to turn it off, and same to turn it back on.To change the name of the personb, the speed and pitch is control option command plus left or right arrow or up or down arrow. The control and option keys are known as V O. V o command + the up or down and or right or left arrow keys. Artie.

Re: if i get a Mac, how do we set up VoiceOver
@btinternet.com IBELIEVE THAT ALL MACS STILL COME WITH VOICEOVER STARTING UP BY DEFAULT. YOU WILL HAVE THE OPTION TO RUN THE GETTING STARTED WIZARD. IF YOUR MAC HAS THIS TURNED OFF THEN THE SHORT ANSWER IS USE COMMAND F5 TO TURN VOICEOVER ON. IF THIS DOES NOT WORK YOU CAN THEN TRY FN COMMAND F5 IF YOUR FUNCTION KEYS ARE SET TO HARDWARE RATHER THAN software . YOUR Voiceover keys are CONTROL AND OPTION AND YOU COULD START WITH hitting vo H to bring up Voiceover and help and select the Quick start tutorial. This should happen by default anyway if it is a new Mac I think. David Griffith d.griffith On 12 Sep 2013, at 15:48, meadowlar...@cox.net wrote: Hello. if I get a Mac, how do we set up VoiceOver?

Re: if i get a Mac, how do we set up VoiceOver?
My Apple is a Mac Book Pro 13 [laptop]. However, I bought a full keyboard to attach via USB plug. The full keyboard has the large black keys and supersize characters in white. Of course that doesn't mean anything to me, but we marked certain keys so I can feel where my fingers are. From the space bar going left, first is the command key, [which is the alt key on the ms keyboard, then the option key, [which is the logo key on the MS keyboard,] then the control key, [same as the MS keybord]. From the space bar going right; first is the command key, [which is the alt key on the MS keyboard], then the option key, [which is the logo key on the MS keyboard], then the control key, [same as the MS keyboard]. I had to grasp the concept that the control key and the option key together are called v o. Combos such as v o + space, and v o + right arrow at first blew my mind. Now we've lerned: v o command + h; and v o command shift + h in safari. Say what? For Brenda; doing some of the functions in apple are similar to the MS keystrokes; similar. To copy selected text [to the clipboard],cmd+c instead of ctrl+c. To cut to the clipboard is cmd+x instead of ctrl+x. To paste is cmd+v instead of ctrl+v. To undo is cmd+z instead of ctrl+z. Artie. =. From: Mike Arrigo When using a windows keyboard, the windows key is command and the alt key is option. So, the voiceover keys would be control and alt. . --- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net --- To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages postedto the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html or at the public Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/.
