Re: VM Fusion and Window-Eyes
Cool! I just had help Installing Windows 7 on my Mac yesterday and I have NVDA installed. Since I’m really new to accessabilty, did you needed help installing Windows 7? Also do you know how to get more than two OS on a Mac? I heard that Bootcamp won’t allow you to have more than two. Thanks! Daniel Hawkins - Posted from my Macbook Pro 2012 15in.

Re: VM Fusion and Window-Eyes
All, I have set up a bootcamp partition and I have Windows7 running on it with Jaws 15. This works very well . I used SharpKeys to swap the command and option keys when in the bootcamp setup. I have also installed the keyboard hack and keyremap for macbook stuff to allow me to use the caps lock key for a screen reader modifier. So, all is well in bootcamp land. I also used VMWare Fusion 6 to import my bootcamp partition as a VM. I am having a problem though that has been discussed on the list before although I don’t believe I have seen a solution. When working in VMware in Windows7 with JAWS running, I am having trouble with some JFW commands not working. Commands that use key combos on the left side of the keyboard work fine, but, commands that use keys on the right hand side of the keyboard are not working. For example, Jawskey + I is not reading the current line. My guess is that this has something to do with the VMWare key mappings, or something with all the variations of key remappings that are being done. I have removed the Sharpkeys settings while in VMWare as the remappings can be done with VMWare itself, but, still no luck. Do any of the JFW users out there have a solution that will fix this issue? Most of my work is required to be done in Windows, however, I would rather do it on the VM side so I still have my MAC apps available to me.

Re: VM Fusion and Window-Eyes
I used the keyboard settings in the Mac settings to switc h them one for the other. It makes it a lot easier to use a PC keyboard. But even on my Mac keyboard Window-Eyes seems to be interferring with my ability to use Option-tab to tab between programs, that keyboard has factory settings.

That's odd. On my keyboard, the Windows key is the command key. -- Shawn Sent From My White MacBook Using SamNet -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: VM Fusion and Window-Eyes
Yes, that is the key I am pressing. The Windows key is the option key on a Mac keyboard.

Hi, Try option-tab. On Dec 10, 2013, at 10:03 AM, Bill Holton wrote: Hi. I have the latest version of Window-Eyes working well in a VM Fusion machine, except for one minor problem. When in a VM machine, Windows-tab is supposed to move you from program to program, like alt-tab usually does. It works fine using Narrator, but with WE, it doesn’t.
