Hi all
my Macbook Pro 2012 model running Os X 10.9.2 is slow booting up. Once booted
all is well. I'm thinking of doing a clean install as never done one since
owning this mac nearly two years ago. So should I go ahead and do this? My
processor is Core I5 and memory is 4 GB. Any responses greatl
1. Open System Preferences.
2. Click on Mission Control.
3. Disable all the keyboard shortcuts by setting them all to - (dash) which
appears at the bottom of each of the popup buttons.
By doing this you have effectively disabled Mission Control and the Dashboard.
Hope this helps.

Hello Eleanor,
Mission Control is a way of managing open applications and organising them into
Spaces. Since VoiceOver does not take account of Spaces (groups of applications
used together for a given task), Mission Control is useless to us. So this is
why I disable Mission Control on my comput
Is there a way to disable the mission control without disabling the dashboard.

Thanks Anne. The experience I have been having, is that a common one for VO
users? Mission Control popping up out of the blue when I am executing
another command?

No as it's for managing other windows. I don't find it the least useful but
that's just me who soly relies on VoiceOver. Maybe those with vision may
disagree on this.

Yes. Mission Control often interferes, especially while editing a text
document. It’s all too easy to hit a wrong key from time to time, or not to
press all the keys of a command at once, and to find that something unexpected
has happened.

Hello Henry,
I’m not sure what you mean by the keystrokes for System Preferences. You get to
System Preferences by going to the Apple menu (VO-m) then going down to System

Once in System Preferences, interact with the scroll area and you’ll find lots
of buttons

The Dashboard is where you find all your widgets. Widgets are tiny applications
that are very simple to use. There are a dozen or more preinstalled widgets
such as Weather, Contacts, Calculator, etc. The default short cut is F12. You

Hello all,
Is anybody having trouble with getting to the App Switcher in IOS7.1 in
their iDevices? I am, with both my iPhone5 and my iPad Mini. Sometimes, it
just doesn't work when you hit that home button twice to get there. The ony
way I seem to get it, at times, is to highlight something

is, is this. Whe

this?
Good luck.

I realize I'm going in circles here but try a permissions repair in the recover

I've done the permission repair/disk repair, replaced the hard drive and
reimaged everything back over, and, this is happening on about 3 of my mac
systems, so the likelyhood of it being a ram problem is unlikely.

How do you get into widget manager? Can you explain exactly what widget is used
for. I have seen posts talking about widget manager but I have never worked out
what it is all about.

First you have to install widget manager. Next go in to system preferences then
go to widget manager then choose the widgets you want to disable or delete then
tab to the move to trash or disable button. Widgets are like iCons to
applications such as weather and other apps.

I am using an iPhone5, and iOS7.1, and no problems here with

double press of the Home button seems to work everywhere I try it. I
