Hi Mary,
If it's what I noticed today on my MBA running sierra then it's definitely not
just you.

Hi Tim,
Can you confirm this for me,
Is it the username log in prompt popping up while the user is doing other
things?
I've not yet updated to high sierra but I've just noticed on my MBA running
Sierra I had a prompt to enter user and password details while I was working in
disk utility.

Hey there Chuck,
Yeah he’ll get his in court as they didn’t kill him when they shot him,

Can anyone put some confirmation on this one?

I believe that if you just create a shell script file that starts with
#!/bin/bash
ensure it has the execute privileges and then associated that with a keyboard
commander that the terminal will launch and execute the command.
Will the command you are thinking of produce output? Depending on th

Hi. A few things. First, Mary, that response that you got is complete BS. As a
beta tester for Sierra, I've sent feedback many times about this issue so they
can't really say that nobody has reported it. Granted, I haven't had time to
report that it's still present in High Sierra, and since I'm
You can use AppleScript, wrap your Terminal command in the syntax:
do shell script "/usr/bin/command --argument 1"

I don’t know if this has been present in Ios 11 since it’s inception, since I
only just now upgraded. But the problem is that when you have links in an email
which you need to use because they expand segments of the email, they don’t
work. Two examples are the Blind Bargains newsletter and eig

Is it possible to set an alias,ie. a keyboard shortcut to run an application in

If so, how might one do it?
Thnks.

Hello Everyone,
To those of you using the NFB Newsline app in iOS 11.x, does the latest
released, posted today, resolve the bug that prevented the viewing of
previous issues?
I just want to make certain before I update to iOS 11.x or to the latest
version of the app, itself.
Thank you,

Hi,
Live regions are usually present on web pages like Google Hangout, or I believe
it is called "Meet" now. In this sort of situation, you may have multiple
areas on your page that are active as in a video feed and a chat region. So,
if you're involved in a "Meet" session, and someone enters
Tim,
Showing my ignorance now, but what are live regions? Any use for them?

Hi All,
I may have a fix for now. It has worked for me in two different scenarios. In
the VO Utility, under the Web category, make sure that the "Enable Live
Regions" checkbox is not checked. This seems to allow VO to remain speaking
for an extended length of time. During this testing, I ha
Hi,
Yes, you are correct with respect to the identical twins aspect of this
feature, although photos, masks and such have no bearing in this process as the
identification process is a 3D process, therefore, 2D photos are immaterial.
This can be affirmed in the same article you partially posted

Less Secure than its NEW FaceID

Hi,
Further to Mary's request. If you have the original response from Apple
regarding the receipt of the report, ask for a follow-up on its progress. Be

Well, all I can say is for all of those of you who have reported this, please
do it again. Either that individual I got an Apple accessibility is clueless.
They don’t communicate. Or whatever. And any case, maybe the squeaky wheel gets

Hi Robin,
do you have some credible source to support your belief about the level of
security of a Face ID vs a finger-print sensor? I'm not sure if one is
actually more secure than the other, just another method to do things. As I've
mentioned a few times before, when the finger-print sensor

Hi,
Try turning up the volume to see if VO is actually starting but just not being
heard. It should have VO abilities at this point. The other thing to do is to
ask your sighted friend to enter your pass-code for now. This should get you
past that barrier, then you can change your pass-code

That's interesting. People have been experiencing this issue since, at least,
Sierra. I'm sure that I also heard that someone submitted a report quite a

I received a response saying that they had forwarded it on to the necessary
