Re: Kindel books and the iOS app etc.

[Cameron Strife]

also, yes, I did google this and while I found an older tutorial on
the AFB web site, the level of accessibility they walk you through
does not appear to be the case in the current version of the app.

Kindel books and the iOS app etc.

[Cameron Strife]

Hi everybody.

There were a few books I wanted to read that were not available from
the iBook store so I had to use amazon and buy the Kindel editions of
them.

Does anybody have any tips for using this app on an iOS device? iBooks
is great in terms of navigation etc but with the Kindel app, while I
can read the book from the beginning, I can't seem to do anything
else.

If this won't work with vo on iOS, is there a way I can somehow
load/convert these kindel format books and read them on mac or windows
somehow?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Cameron.

Re: Sophos Home

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

To date, I don't have any virus software running on my Mac.

I don't know if I should as I don't download any third party apps for my Mac 
and only use the built in sotware provided by Apple.  Touch wood, I don't get a 
virus.

RE: Sophos Home

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Chris,

 Yes have been using Sophos for almost 9 years now.

 They released the home version approx. 18 months ago.

 We use it at work and recommend it for students and staff for personal 
machines,

We have a corporate licence for anything business owned 

The fact you can have 10 machines from either platform running it makes it a 
great deal and it's very easy to use / configure for your use.

Thought I would spread the word about Sophos Home. If you want a free, fully

Best of all, you can install on up to 10 Windows and Mac computers per Sophos 
Home account, which is also free. Nothing else more to say, so go here

Re: Urgent, urgent Apple Logo appears with a message Installing Progress has not windows sometimes when I turn on My Mac computer!

[E.T.]

Traci and all,
   I no longer pay any attention to such messages at login. My system 
seems to run just fine after I am logged in.


   I have a suspicion this anomaly is due to timing of events that take 
place during boot up. In other words, these events are not totally in 
sync and VO may be slightly out of sync and speaking events that are 
already done with.


   I see this occasionally when opening or closing apps or doing other 
tasks and I will hear something like "has no window".


From E.T.'s Keyboard. . .
  I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.
