Oh--because I dont have the old machine that was causing problems with the
recover partition (although those were also fixed), as my new machine has
arrived, thus getting rid of the need to "upgrade" a recovery partition.
If a new machine doesn't have the latest OS, that's a different serious
probl
The recovery partition is updated when you upgrade your OS, either by
downloading and installing a new release of the OS from the App Store, or by
running a system update (also from the App Store since Mountain Lion).

Hello,
Just curious. Why will this be moot?

It does, actually. Do you know if it's possible to upgrade the recovery
partition? Although this will be moot shortly, according to the order
status notification I got yesterday.

Just a follow-up to say that I verified that the recovery system of Yosemite
does in fact let you access the menu extras. My iMac’s Internet Recovery was
for Lion, which definitely doesn’t support this, requiring Ethernet to perform
the install accessibly.
Hope this helps someone.

FileVault login prompts are announced only on recent Macs. On older Macs you
get the beeps. The reason is that the login window isn’t an OS X app but is
loaded from the booter partition by the firmware directly. Once you log in the
main system will come up speaking.

For various reasons, most particularly the use of Internet Recovery, I suggest
getting yourself an Ethernet adaptor regardless.
As to your question, though, although I know the menu extras are accessible
from within a fully-booted live system, I’m not sure that the same holds true
for the recov
I have a few mid/early 2015 MBPs.

Interesting. My late 2011 unit beeps twice for username and three times
for password with FileVault active, and I have the latest updates installed.
Also, I'm still encountering the VoiceOver menu extras bug with the
recovery partition. I assume theres not anything special I need to do in

I'm running 10.10.3 with all software updates installed.
Here's another weird issue:
I have multiple Macs with File Vault encryption. One of them self-voices
when enabling VoiceOver on the lock screen, the other beeps for username
and password. They are both fully updated to the latest software.
Hi. I don't have that bug. I'm able to access the Wi-Fi menu with in recovery
partition just fine. I'm running the latest public beta of Yosemite 10.10.4, if
that helps though. Although seeing as it's recovery partition, it should
reinstall 10.10.3, and not 10.10.4 cents is not released publicly
Actually
There is a bug with VoiceOver where you cannot get into the menu extras
with all software updates installed. VoiceOver restar
ts itself and takes you out of the menu.

Hi Chris. No, that bug was fixed a couple of years ago. I can't remember and
which version of OS X it was fixed with.

Greetings.
So one bug I remember from years back was that, if you tried to access the
menu extras (like, for example, connecting to WiFi to download the
operating system), VoiceOver refused to acknowledge their existence. Is
this still a thing? Will I need to procure an Ethernet adapter in the
