Good Day:

The converter is in a frame following the first heading on the main 
page. If you interact with it, it guides you through the four phases of 
conversion. When the page updates, you may have to refocus VoiceOver, but the 
web interface is certainly useable.

You need to first download the books from the site using Safari. Then you open

Re: Battery revisited

No, it's not there on Yosemite 10.10.3.  The closest thing I see is to 
automatically speak alerts when displayed, but I gather that is for all 
alerts, not just the battery.  I don't want the things speaking every single 
God forsaken alert.  I only want it telling me when my battery's low.

Subject: Navigating to the ribbon in Office 2015

Hello All,

Okay, so I updated to Word 2016 current version and I have toggled on to
show the ribbon with COMMAND-OPTION-R. Maybe I’m missing something, but I
can’t navigate to it, so I can see if an additional edit field has been
added to send my report to Microsoft. This has been very exasperating to
say
the least in sending my input on how to make Word 2016 more accessible to
the blind. If anyone can shed some light on how to move to the ribbon bar
with ease would be most appreciated.

The only item I have tried out so far is the spell checker. At first, the
automatic correction was turned on, so I made the necessary changes in
preferences. I like to have control on making my corrections. However, the
same problem exists where when the spell checker is activated, that the
word
that is misspelled is an image, so voiceover has no chance in voicing the
word in question. It’s only when I tab over to the suggestion table that I
am able to know what is the problem. I thought I would comment on which 
bug

is still a bug in Word 2016 that I wanted to send to MS.

Thanks for your assistance.

Best,
Eileen

Subject: Navigating to the ribbon in Office 2015

Hello All,

Okay, so I updated to Word 2016 current version and I have toggled on to
show the ribbon with COMMAND-OPTION-R. Maybe I’m missing something, but I
can’t navigate to it, so I can see if an additional edit field has been
added to send my report to Microsoft. This has been very exasperating to
say
the least in sending my input on how to make Word 2016 more accessible to
the blind. If anyone can shed some light on how to move to the ribbon bar
with ease would be most appreciated.

The only item I have tried out so far is the spell checker. At first, the
automatic correction was turned on, so I made the necessary changes in
preferences. I like to have control on making my corrections. However, the
same problem exists where when the spell checker is activated, that the
word
that is misspelled is an image, so voiceover has no chance in voicing the
word in question. It’s only when I tab over to the suggestion table that I
am able to know what is the problem. I thought I would comment on which bug
is still a bug in Word 2016 that I wanted to send to MS.

Thanks for your assistance.

Best,
Eileen

If you press vo+shift+up arrow a few times to verify that you are not 
interacting with anything at all, then move to the top of the screen, can 
you not find your ribbon, then interact with it?  I'm seeing it over here 
just fine.

Just to clarify my suggestion: if you use Ctrl-Option-Left-Arrow/Right-Arrow
keys to navigate, the ribbon will be announced as "ribbon tab group". Interact
with that and you'll have the layout that I described earlier.

[Eileen]

Hello All,

Thanks for all of the suggestions. Currently, I'm waiting for MS Outlook to 
finish its update. I'll look at these suggestions when the computer settles 
down. It was a fluke that I was able to find the edit field to send the 
feedback to MS in the help tab. I know that there are veteran users of VO here 
than I and I need to switch and not use the familiar keystrokes on the PC side. 
It's hard to do. Thanks again.

Best,
Eileen

I'm sure there are project planners in Microsoft who know, but I doubt they'll
announce it publicly until the release date.

It's supposed to be in the third quarter of 2015.

Re: The Audible Player on the Mac.

I don't like playing books through iTunes.  I did try it on the Mac and at the

Thanks so much.

Re: Navigating to the ribbon in Office 2015

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Eileen,

Whenever you have a problem finding an element on a page in any application, 
try using the Item Chooser (VO-i). It can save you a whole lot of frustration.

In Word, I just tried it with Home and it put me in the ribbon. When I entered 
Help, it found Help MicroSoft improve Office, or whatever it said.

Cheers,

Anne

Hi Kawal,

Just tried it on the Mac and it’s working fine here.  I’m running Yosemite and

RE: The Audible Player on the Mac.

[Marcia Yale]

I play Audible books all the time in iTunes. I think the first time you play 
one you will need to authorize the book with your user name and password, but 
it has been a long time since the first one so I may be wrong about that.

Hi.

Can anyone tell me if anyone has tried playing their audible books on the Mac 
by going into their Library, choosing a book and playing it straight on their 
Mac?  I know that one can do it by using Windows.  I am trying to do this by 
using my Mac and see all the controls and buttons which are perfectly 
accessible as before when I did this, the Mac Cloud player for Audible was not 
accessible and thus you had to use the app on your I phone to play books.

Thanks.

Kawal.

Hi, No I’ve never tried that! But, itunes on the mac plays audible books fine. 
And you can jump through books by chapter in itunes too.

Ctrl-Option-Left-Arrow/Right-Arrow should get you there. Then use
Ctrl-Option-Space on the tab that you want to access, followed by
Ctrl-Option-Fn-Right-Arrow to move to the "scroll area" where the controls of
the selected tab appear, then interact with that area and access the controls
in the usual way.

Hello All, 

Okay, so I updated to Word 2016 current version and I have toggled on to show 
the ribbon with COMMAND-OPTION-R. Maybe I’m missing something, but I can’t 
navigate to it, so I can see if an additional edit field has been added to send 
my report to Microsoft. This has been very exasperating to say the least in 
sending my input on how to make Word 2016 more accessible to the blind. If 
anyone can shed some light on how to move to the ribbon bar with ease would be 
most appreciated. 

The only item I have tried out so far is the spell checker. At first, the 
automatic correction was turned on, so I made the necessary changes in 
preferences. I like to have control on making my corrections. However, the same 
problem exists where when the spell checker is activated, that the word that is 
misspelled is an image, so voiceover has no chance in voicing the word in 
question. It’s only when I tab over to the suggestion table that I am able to 
know what is the problem. I thought I would comment on which bug is still a bug 
in Word 2016 that I wanted to send to MS. 

Thanks for your assistance. 

Best, 
Eileen
