RE: Microsoft word on the Mac.

2020-04-11 Thread Simon A Fogarty
With office 365 you have a range of products you can purchase and that’s what 
it is,

I 2 have the office 365 suite on my notebooks both mac and windows,

I also have office 365 applications word excel powerpoint sway teams sharepoint 
outlook tasks
And groups in stalled to my iPhone and ipad

Yes there is a office suite that can be installed to the ipad and the iPhone,

The main thing is that with office 365 it’s an email / password activation to 
get these software packages working in a full state on the computer or mobile 
device.

With my package I also have the ability to share with 5 other people and 
install to up to 5 devices and also I can access documents on my web interface 
office applications
Also as for accessible office 365 web applications  are very accessible from 
what I can tell,

I use excel mainly on the net via teams and it’s fine,and with co authoring of 
documents you can see who does what in a document and with sharepoint tied in 
you can  version check

The only thing I’ve not used in O365 is skype for business but then I’ve got 
zoom and a phone for that.

Subject: Re: Microsoft word on the Mac.

Hello Mr. Carlson, yes that is correct let me explain. When you have office 365 
you have the choice of either using the web version of an application or the 
version of the application that you actually install. Or at least that’s the 
way it was initially. These days I believe it is only the application install. 
The difference they were blind users is huge. If you use the web version of the 
application a screen reader can’t figure out where exact because it’s all based 
on a webpage. If it’s on the computer, then of course the screenreader is based 
on what’s presented to it locally. So to some of my answers yes I use a local 
version of the application but the subscription really is to office 365. I have 
the five device pack. That means that I can use Windows, Mac, a tablet if I 
wish, and even a smart phone if I wish. Because all of those devices are 
natively covered by my subscription. However I believe the tablet and the phone 
are restricted to the web version not the installed version. Now that I think 
about it, the phone does use and version meant for the phone. But I think the 
tablet version is  indeed a webpage. All versions have the account pain. It 
basically shows the fact that you are using one seat of the license. I hope 
this clarification, and explanation helps?

 And closing I’ve been using office three $0.65 late 2015.

Sincerely Maurice Mines.

Hello David.

I did actually have problems using the word application on the Mac yesterday as 
I was trying to update my CV. I was also trying to use the Braille display with 
it but I found that voice-over was not always tracking what the speech said I E 
I don’t know if there is a braill e cursor, a bit like jaws, as sometimes when 
I tried to get to the end of the line the focus was somewhere else. I found 
that very annoying. In the end, I had to use text edit. I also had to use 
Windows to make sure that the document was okay.

Re: Microsoft word on the Mac.

2020-04-10 Thread 'Andrew Lamanche' via MacVisionaries
Hello Maurice,

Have you tried working with tables in a Word document on the mac side?  It used 
to be impossible so I was wondering whether you had any experience of tables in 
Word on the mac.  Another word processing app on the Mac, Nisus Writer, was 
very promising but for the tables again.  It seems to be one of those features 
whose implementation with accessibility in mind has always been a problem.

Re: Microsoft word on the Mac.

2020-04-09 Thread maurice mines
Hello, I use Microsoft Word for the Mac practically on a daily basis. The ways 
that I’ve made it work for me, is by first going to that ribbon. I stop 
interacting with it then I get to the point where it will show me the text 
that’s currently in the document. I interact with that and I’m able to read the 
document. At least that’s a whole lot better than Microsoft Word to the max 
started out back in 2016. Back then it wasn’t usable for very much other than 
you could create a document but you had to leave it in draft mode. Today’s 
version at least is usable and all of its modes.

When I talk about my experience with Microsoft Word to the math I want to be 
clear that it is the version that is actually on the local machine. Not the web 
version of Microsoft Word which I believe still is virtually inaccessible. And 
when I deal with documents that I  create an word on the Mac and read them in 
the version of the same program and Windows live had very few compatibility 
issues.

For extremely short Word documents, such as the signature file or something of 
that nature. I can even use TextEdit or doubt in terms of reading it. I’m going 
to include my signature file which actually is a Word document just as an 
example. Please note however my signature file is not an endorsement or 
discrediting my position which the file mentions. I did not write the actual 
text of the file. But in order to make it work for me I converted the document 
that was originally in HTML format into a Word document for use as an email 
signature. In addition I use word for the Mac for most of not all of my 
academic work that requires the use of Microsoft Word. And ideas it depending 
on how long the document is for meeting assignments. Yes I think there could be 
many improvements to the Mac product but it is at least functional right now 
and can be used easily.

So here’s the file. Remember this is just for an example. Of a Word document. 
Although I did not write this document, I am responsible for its layout since I 
had to make a few adjustments. Thank you very much in advance for reading this. 
Everyone stay safe and if possible stay where you are. Have other nice day.

Please note, the above text of this email have spent dictated to the computer

Re: Microsoft word on the Mac.

2020-04-09 Thread 'Andrew Lamanche' via MacVisionaries
How is the issue of accessibility of Tables in Word on mac?  That used to be a 
major stumbling block as it has been on all the other ones on the Mac platforms 
apart from Pages.

Re: Microsoft word on the Mac.

2020-04-09 Thread Julie Rattray
Yes I find when using word on the Mac that it is less responsive and it does 
not always respond to commands to move by para etc so I typically still use 
pages but do use word for a couple of things - normally sharing files to one 
drive for collaborative working with peers. Interestingly I find the IPAD 
versions of ms office much better than the desktop versions.

Hi,
You can download Word for Macintosh from Microsoft. It does require you have an 
office 365 account. And it is a paid app, but it runs in MacOS. It’s not as

Word documents will open in pages and you can export a pages document to word 
again which is relatively ok - I think some features of the document can change 
but it seems this is linked to fonts I don’t think you loose formatting etc but 
someone else might know.

Re: Word On The Mac?

2019-07-03 Thread Pete Nalda
Hi, 
You can download Word for Macintosh from Microsoft. It does require you have an 
office 365 account. And it is a paid app, but it runs in MacOS. It’s not as 
elegant as the windows version, but it works. 

Egun On, Lagunak! (basque for G'day, Mates

Re: Word On The Mac?

Thank you for mentioning this point. I will look into what the differences are. 
I am still primarily a Windows computer user, but if I am trying to open up my 
documents on the Mac Book it would be helpful to have Word.

Hi, eileen, 

Office 365 requires a subscription.  There is also a stand-alone version of 
Word for Mac.  It works pretty well.  Depending on what your needs are the 
stand-alone version may be cheaper in the long run.
Cheers,
Donna

Change spelling if it announces correct word on the Mac.

2015-10-23 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hi.

I was writing an e-mail tonight and misspelt a word.  When I went on a word, 
Voice Over announced the correct word.  Please could someone tell me how to 
make sure the correct word is selected as even though it is on auto correct 
whilst typing, I could not find how to change the word as it would not change.

Thanks.

Kawal.

Re: Microsoft Word on the mac does not want to read more than a few pages out of a long document

2015-08-12 Thread 'Eleanor Roberts' via MacVisionaries
Hi all 

Just a note which is probably stating the obvious, but if you're having trouble 
with Microsoft Word or any part of the Microsoft sweet then please please  feed 
it back to them! I have!! The only way they'll listen to us and improve their 
accessibility for us is if as many people  as possible feed back and tell them 
what's wrong and how it needs to be  fixed. If we don't all feed back then 
it'll just get ignored/brushed under the carpet, which none of us want! Having 
said that, if you find positive stuff then please let them know  about that 
too, so they don't always think we're just a bunch of moaners. 

Thanks, and sorry for the rant, but really, if we want things fixed then the 
only way it'll be achieved is  by feedback from as many as possible. 

Eleanor

The problem I get is that the further down the document I go the more flaky 
VoiceOver becomes, and it stops indicating paragraph and line breaks properly.

Re: Microsoft Word on the mac does not want to read more than a few pages out of a long document

2015-08-12 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Hi Krister,

Thank you for confirming this.  I think it's fair to say that I've given 
Microsoft Office a good chance on the mac but I find it difficult to justify 
subscribing to Office365 any longer.  I shall have to pull the plug on this and 
just stick to Pages and office on the Windows side I run in virtual machine - 
not very convenient.

Thanks again

Andrew

Hi,
What i’m going to say now will not help you in the least and for that i’m 
sorry. However, I can partly confirm the behaviour you see, only i can’t read 
anything but some changes in attributes such as font, style etc if i’m lucky,

Microsoft Word on the mac does not want to read more than a few pages out of a long document

2015-08-12 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Hi Listers,

I have opened a document in the latest Microsoft Word on the mac.  I know this 
document has 29 pages since I had opened it before in Pages.  However, I don't 
seem to be able to transit further than 4 pages and I'm thrown back to the 
first page.  it's driving me crazy.  Any suggestions?  I feel like I'm gonna 
ditch Microsoft suite altogether and cancel the Office subscription.  Waste of 
money if I can't use it properly.

Thanks for any suggestions

Andrew

Voiceover and tables in Microsoft Word on the mac

2015-04-20 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Hi,

I've just tried inserting and navigating a table into a microsoft word document 
on my mac.  The inserting of the table was easy and accessible.  Navigating the 
table also seems to work without having to interact with it.  I tried using 
both tab key and voiceover keys with arrow keys, both seem to let me navigate 
the table and Voiceover gives the cell coordinates very well.  The only thing 
that seems the problem at present is that when I have actually written some 
text into a cell and then tried to modify it by deleting some characters, 
VoiceOver doesn't give feedback on what letters are deleted.  Could someone 
confirm this?  This is really promising and provided Microsoft can fix some 
problems like the one above, we might actually get another word processing app 
on the mac that handles tables well.  Also page transitions in a document 
longer than one page seems fine.  I have set my preferences for Word to wrap 
text to window in preferences.

I've also just noticed the same behaviour when typing text into text areas on 
the feedback page in Microsoft Word.  VoiceOver doesn't give me any feedback.  
I have to move away from the text area and back to read the entire text.

How do I report any problems with Word and voiceOver to Microsoft?

Andrew
