As far as I know, all you can do is select your default send account. This
isn't as pretty but still does the same thing. The setting from memiry is in
the compose page in mail preferences but apple have my mbp so I can't look it
up sorry.

Hello Josh,
Pages is an advanced word-processing application. However, if all you want in
the way of formatting is bold, italic, indentation and so on, TextEdit would be
good enough.
In Pages, you can use the templates that are provided, or create your own
templates including placeholder
Thanks very much. I've heard things about it, both good and bad, so what did to
get some feedback from users that seem to use it on a regular basis. I don't
mean to sound… Rude, but was just saying. I think it's $20, am I correct?

Hello Josh,
In my previous message, I failed to mention that you can indeed write college
papers using Pages. I have templates for both APA and MLA formats.
Around $20 sounds right for Pages, but I wouldn't know for sure as I'm in
France so prices are in euros.
I've been using Pages as a
Hi Josh,
We just purchased pages and it is indeed $20 from the Apple store.
Just having come from windows I figured I should get pages because I never
liked notepad which was the default text editing program. Maybe text edit
will work well enough for me. I don't know, I suppose I will now check

Hi there, thanks very much. That seems a bit steep when you look at it at

This is a fantastically useful list and is sure to reduce the time I spend
ploughing through the user manual as I have been doing for the last couple
of days.
Is there anybody who can tell me how I can execute a command in an edit box?
Specifically in Safari I can get to the address
Hi all
Today is really the first opportunity I have had to sit down and play with
iTunes 11. My first impressions, and this view could well change over time, is
that the interface is now utterly dreadful for the VoiceOver user. Unless I am
totally missing something here, without having to
Go to the iTunes menu in the menu bar with ctrl f2, the arrow down to check
for update and it will let you know if the app needs updating or not.

Hi Gordon,
There is only one thing worse than iTunes 11, and that's the Podcasts app on
IOS. I described iTunes 11 on twitter recently thus:
if an undergraduate submitted this as a final year project I'd fail it.
I stand by that assertion. Leaving voiceover out of it, the UI doesn't work.
Hmm. there used to be a way to drag the order of accounts so your account you
always wanted to send from appeared at the top of the list. I did this in lion
when both methods of dragging and dropping became more accurate. I've also
read articles that say to do it as well and I did manage it
I actually prefer the new interface. It took me a little while to understand
the layout, but everything is doable and quite accessible. I listened to a
very good podcast on iTunes 11's new interface from AppleVIS, and that also
helped a good deal.

Hi,
I agree. It's important to give it time, and not dismiss the whole project as
dreadful without fair examination. One of the things I've noticed about
VoiceOver as I've used it this past year is that it tends to make it possible
for two people to have utterly different user experiences,
Oh yah David's podcasts rock. I use the side bar layout or what ever they call
it as I manually manage music and stuff on my ios device and for me I like th

I have a little residual sight, and with the great monitor on the iMac and the
right contrast I can sometimes track the mouse pointer. I'd like to know, what
it means to:
1) select multiple items with the mouse.
I know that clicking the left mouse button is synonamous with VO shift
spacebar.
Hi Phil,
I think you have the general idea correct. Selecting multiple items is done
with the shift key, I believe, and noncontiguous ones with the control key.
Someone with more experience will have to correct me on that point.
Drag-and-drop is pretty much what it sounds like, you use the left
You will either have an enterr, a search or a go button on the bottom right of
the keyboard depending on the application/situation and this will close and
often activate the function if your not in a multi line edit field. If you are,
touch the screen outside the edit box and flick or move
Hi Donø
Unfortunately, I have so far seen absolutely nothing which I can honestly say I
like about what Apple has done to iTunes.In fact, I am finding myself even
lowering myself and going over to W*s gto do simple things like play music.
Again, my views may change radically over time, it
Hi Phil
I agree that one can keep moving the radio buttons to change the lighlighed
options. But to be honest, at this time, I would go so far as to say that it
isn't an upgrade, it is a significant downgrade.

Hi Zack
OK, perhaps one of these people who say they like the interface better now
might care to explain how one would do things like search for items. When I
tried that, it failed to find the item even though I knew it was present in my

Hi Everyone,
If you use parallels to set up windows on the Mac, can you still use Voiceover
or do you have to use JAWS when switching to windows? Does Bootcamp work
better then parallels or are they the same? I'm just trying to eliminate a
second computer while I make the transition to the Mac
Paralells isn't accessable *at all* with voiceover. Unless you have some
useable vision, don't bother. I can't speak about boot camp since I don't use
it. Imho, Fusion is your best bet as you get the best of both worlds. You
might run into problems with access keys with jaw, but again, since
Hi
Just to remind the group before anybody does respond to this, we don't discuss
Jaws and Windows configurations here. However, it is safe to tell you that

If you're looking for music in your library, you can type in what you're

Firstly, don't take this the wrong way but a lot of your questions will be

Hi there!
Well are you asking for [to update iTunes] or update APPs that you've bought in
iTunes!?
If you want to update iTunes as Sarah said but for Apps pick Apps in iTunes and
it should tell you if you have some updates and if so you should find a button
in there!

I do not know if you've already done this but if not it might help!
In System pref's under Accessibility you can pick the display's section and go
to the Cursor size and make the Cursor much larger to help with tracking its

Oh I know I should use the help file. My husband told me the same thing. But

You might thane to enable that in key board short cuts under Keyboard Text
