Hello, There are many people on this list who have got it to work. What version are you using? Make sure you are using the latest before bashing their first beta release. It isn’t bug free but at least MS is stepping up to the plate to address the accessibility issues. The version Version 15.

Hi. I am wondering why the product is referred to as Office Preview. Is it because it isn’t yet available as a full-fledged functioning program? Does anyone know if Word works on an iPhone with a bluetooth keyboard, or does it just work on the Mac? Best to all, Mike > On 22,Apr,2015, at 19:2

Good morning list, in response to this I can’t get Microsoft Word preview for the Mac to work at all. Should I be just uninstalling it until this program actually does something other than take up space on my hard drive? Because so far I do the program and the Microsoft Office preview as a whole

Hello, A thought i got, isn’t there a setting in Voiceover where you make the cursor behave like it does in Windows rather than how it behaves on the Mac? What if you made an activity where you turned this behaviour on or if it’s on turn it off? /Krister > 22 apr 2015 kl. 22:59 skrev Anne Rober

Editing in Word is Weird. When I do Option-Right Arrow, then just Right Arrow alone, it reads each letter of the word I just thought I’d jumped over. Also, Option-Left Arrow apparently takes me to the left of the word before the one I thought I’d jumped over. I also have insertion point issues,

I can’t reproduce this particular issue; reading by word works fine on my machine. That said, it’s entirely possible that this is a focus issue which only occurs in certain situations. Grant On Apr 22, 2015, at 10:44 AM, 'Jim Fettgather' via MacVisionaries wrote: Hello, In the latest Office
