Re: Focus Issues since Sonoma Upgrade

2023-10-08 Thread 'Mary Ward' via MacVisionaries
I think that I would like a bit more of a delay in the speaking of the auto 
corrections.  It’s so in my face that I can’t address the issues.  I find it 
extremely distracting if not disruptive.  However, the corrections themselves 
are much more accurate than they used to be.  I just hope that I can eventually 
get the improvement and still lose the disadvantages of this new way of doing 
things.

Are you only having problems with editing or is it actual focus?  I am finding 
the changes to auto-correction to be very difficult to work with, even though 
it is much more accurate than it was before.  But this is both in iOS and Mac 
OS.  I don’t want to turn it off, of course, but sometimes I am tempting just 
to get it to shut up.

Re: Focus Issues since Sonoma Upgrade

2023-10-03 Thread Suzanne Erb
Hello,
I’m on the phone with Apple Accessibility now.  Apparently, someone else has 
reported this issue.  Someone thought I was referring to iOS, but they did 
actually find a report of something similar happening on Sonoma.  Apparently, 
they are aware of the issue and are working in it.
I am on hold.  If I learn anything, I’ll report back.
Cheers,
Suzanne

Re: Focus Issues since Sonoma Upgrade

Did you check to see if cursor tracking was inadvertently disabled? If this 
setting has not been turned off and you are continuing to experience issues 
with cursor focus, I’d recommend backing up and resetting your VoiceOver 
preferences to defaults to see if that resolves the problem.

Re: Focus Issues since Sonoma Upgrade

2023-10-03 Thread 'Jason J.G. White' via MacVisionaries
Do all of the settings under VoiceOver -> Navigation seem correct?
I’m not having any focus issues, so, without a clue as to what it might be, I 
can’t help any further. You may need to reset everything to defaults and 
reinstall applications. I would suggest taking this up with Apple support 
before making any drastic changes, though. They should be better at diagnosing 
the problem than anyone on this list.

   What kind of focus issues are you experiencing? I’m not fully understanding. 
Have you rebooted the computer since you upgraded?
