Re: OT: automatically mount drive at startup?

All mounting of disks is done with auto mounts , perhaps you can put a map there for your smug. Also launched agents would be a way to run a command at login. I know you can get it to start a process if a specific directory exists. Jonathan Cohn > On Nov 16, 2015, at 11:16 PM, Alex Hall

Re: OT: automatically mount drive at startup?

I don't know if this will work, but I just added it as a login item. Turns out that, when I was trying to do this yesterday, I was in the wrong place. If this fails, I'll have to look at the auto-mount you mentioned. Thanks. > On Nov 17, 2015, at 08:56, Jonathan C. Cohn

It sounds like your voice over cursor is not following your keyboard cursor. This could be either a VO shift F3. Or a option with in the voiceover utilities the 0F8. What is your max say when you had PO shift at three? Jonathan Cohn > On Nov 17, 2015, at 2:31 PM, Zoe Fiogkos

Re: pages help please?

Hello Zoe, First of all, make sure that Quick Nav is off. Interact with the area that says: “Body”. This is where you enter text. You should be able to navigate using the arrow keys without the VO keys and you select text by adding the Shift key. So, Shift-Right Arrow will select one character

Re: upgrading my mac

Hi Zoe, do you perhaps have QuickNav on? Try pressing the left and right-arrow keys together, and see if VO says "QuickNav off". If it reports "QuickNav on", press them again, because off is the correct state for the kind of navigation you're trying to perform. Jonathan Mosen Mosen Consulting
