Ok, a simplified VMWare Question

[Sharon Hooley]

Hi again,

Well, I hope this is my last question on this topic.  I’m having a hard time 
finding the old podcast by Mike Arigo about using VMWare.  I’ve searched on 
Mystic Access and Cool Blind Tech, as well as Google, and so far I haven’t 
noticed it.  Is there a direct link I can use?  So my million-dollar question 
is:  Since cmd+g is not listed in the key routing menu in VMWare Fusion 8.5, 
how do I get to the mapping area, with Mac Book Air, El Capitan, with 
voiceover, and  are there special instructions I should follow?  By the way, I 
followed some other instructions for routing my capslock key to become an 
insert key for the screen readers modifier key, using Carabiner and Seil, so 
I’m wondering if they could be used to make the toggle work?

Thanks again,

Well, if you can, wait for the Creators Update, as that will let you perform a

Back on the List with VMWare Question

[Sharon Hooley]

Hi all.  It’s good to be back on the list, and I hope everyone is doing well.

I’ve recently installed VMWare Fusion, the recent, if not most up-to-date 
version, 8.5.3….  I'm using Mac OS Sierra on a mac book air.  How does one go 
about installing Windows 10 using an image?  I would prefer to use a flash 
drive than a disk.

Thanks,

Hi,

Not sure.  I have not tried it.  I wanted to be sure it was possible before I 
tried it.  I have not come across anything that I needed to copy, but wantd to 
be sure that If I needed to do that it would be possible.  I will have to try a 
test and see and report back.

I think this is default behavior or it's been so long that I forgot that I had 
turned it on in some preference. Anyway, it's certainly possible to copy/paste 
text from VMWare Fusion to a mac app. You just do control-c for copy in Windows 
and command-v for paste on the mac unless you have vmware set up to use 
command-c as well. Is it not working for you?

Re: Quick VMware question

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

Are you checking the boxes as you can clear what is set and do your own 
mapping. I think I have an e-mail saved which may give more detailed 
instructions. If so I will e-mail to the list.  Also if you want an instert key 
and you create one, you will have to go in to jaws setting centre and search 
for insert key mode and make sure it is checked so that when you do let's say 
command J, it will do the insert for you so you can type B and the dialogue box 
will be read if you did set an insert key in Vmware preferences.

RE: Quick VMware question

[Bill Holton]

Hi.

Thanks for the help.  I must be missing something though.  Currently I am
using a PC keyboard on my Mac, and I used the Mac's keyboard layout to swap
the two keys on my PC keyboard so that the alt key is the Mac command key
and the PC Windows key is the Mac's Option Key.  I can't seem to find the
right combinations to change these back to their proper PC usage during a VM
ware session so that what is now the Mac's Option key becomes the Windows
Key and what is now the Mac's command key turns into the Alt Key.  No matter
how I try to remap them I keep coming back with the PC's alt key calling up
the Windows Menu and the Windows Key F combination calling up the file menu.

 

I have tried remapping several ways, and also restarted the VM machine after
resetting.  Any further help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi.

 

You can go in VMWare preferences, Interact with the tool bar, VO right twice
until you hear Key mappings one of 4.  Stop interacting,  then vo right
until you hear VO say map certain combinations on your machine etc and then
follow the instructions.

 

Or if that does not work for you, google sharpe keys and you should find it.

Hi.

I wouldn't advise Voice Over and your virtual machine screen reader
running at the same time as your Mac might struggle. Also your window
keys may not work properly if you have voice over on.  Best to turn it
off.

RE: a vmware question

If the function keys are not behaving like normal pc function keys, then you
need to change the keyboard settings in the mac preferences 
By default a mac doesn't use function keys like normal pc function keys.

Hello Sarah,

I'm not running Fusion, but what's happening, at least with the F10 key, is
that you're running into conflicts with the existing key definitions for the
Mac.  The F10 key is used for Exposé on the Mac side, and you definitely
want to disable the key definitions, because you're not going to use it, and
if you press these keys you'll think that your computer has frozen up.  Read
the archived post for a description of what's happening and how to disable
the Exposé key definitions:

http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg08197.html
(What is Exposé, and how to use its assigned keys in Fusion)

Since I'm on a laptop, my keyboard doesn't include an F13 key, so I'm not
sure what's going on there.

Cheers,

RE: a vmware question

[Bryan Smart]

Its easier to use Sharp Keys inside Windows and remap keys that way, rather 
than using VMware's mapping tools. VMware doesn't do so well with remapping 
modifier keys, for example. Sharp Keys will remap anything.

Re: a vmware question

[Esther]

Hello Sarah,

I'm not running Fusion, but what's happening, at least with the F10 key, is 
that you're running into conflicts with the existing key definitions for the 
Mac.  The F10 key is used for Exposé on the Mac side, and you definitely want 
to disable the key definitions, because you're not going to use it, and if you 
press these keys you'll think that your computer has frozen up.  Read the 
archived post for a description of what's happening and how to disable the 
Exposé key definitions:

http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg08197.html
(What is Exposé, and how to use its assigned keys in Fusion)

Since I'm on a laptop, my keyboard doesn't include an F13 key, so I'm not sure 
what's going on there.

Cheers,

Esther

a vmware question

[Sarah Alawami]

Hello to all.

I am running xp on a vmware setup and i cannot get the f13 key to map so I 
could use nvda  for my  screen reader. I tried the map function in the 
preffences but no joy and falso if I have to right click on something ,shift 
f10 causes the vm to freeze. Is there another way aroun this?
