Re: Adding Widgets on Mac OS

2023-12-27 Thread joseph hodge 
Thank you so much for posting this! For widgets like you showed for text it
seems to work pretty well however with widgets where you can interact with
buttons it didn't seem to work very well. For example YouTube has a widget
that you can do a search I'm assuming because the Mac doesn't actually have
a YouTube widget it doesn't know what to do with that. I wish Apple would
just eliminate that from the list as it really doesn't work on the Mac
unless I'm missing something. Same goes for alexa. They had a widget so I
was like I'll try it but of course it doesn't work because there's no Mac
Alexa app.

Re: Adding Widgets on Mac OS

2023-12-26 Thread Michael Babcock 
Hi Joseph and all!

Find "Using widgets from iOS 17 on macOS 14’s desktop”, this was the episode I 
was thinking of:

https://unmute.show/2023/10/01/using-widgets-from-ios-17-on-macos-14s-desktop/

VO+O to open notification center
Locate edit widgets button
Locate the widget
Interact with the preview, find the size you want
Use actions menu on the size you want, and choose Drag to desktop.
You can also press vo+Space on this widget to add to the desktop.
It looks like it’s easy to add both Mac and IOS widgets to the desktop, however 
I also am not seeing how to move those widgets or add new ones to the 
Notification Center.
It does say "Drag a widget to place it on the desktop or Notification Center…” 
but doesn’t make it clear how to drag or add to the Notification Center.
I did try VO+ < and VO + . As well as vo+command+shift+space
To drag and then toggle the notification center and attempt to drop in the 
widgets there, and that didn't work either.

Hey there,So first, if you haven’t yet, try checking under the actions menu, VO plus command plus space and see if there’s an option to add there. I did a recording for adding widgets to the desktop on Mac, and don’t quite remember how to do it, but will be glad to share steps tomorrow.

Adding Widgets on Mac OS

2023-12-25 Thread Kelly Ford 
Hello,

Can someone point me to the proper method to add/remove widgets on the latest 
Mac OS.

I tried this article from Apple but it doesn’t seem to work.

I know how to open the Notification Center, indicate I want to edit widgets and 
find those I want. This is where I get stuck. I can activate the widget and it 
shows up in the preview area. At that point I’m stuck.
