Hi Geoff. In your message you say that you've unchecked a box in the Voice Over Utilities category, so wish to know (as I read my messages in threaded view which are displayed as separate windows), if I were to uncheck the box and pressed enter on any message, would the Voice Over read my

Hi Kawal and others, The following old post may offer a modicum of clarification. The short answer to your question is that message text is automatically read for me regardless whether the focused mailBox is in threaded view either when I press enter or tab into the preview pane. I believe

You are giving me ideas for upcoming podcasts. To install an app: 1. Open the .dmg file with command-O. (Most apps come in dmg files, which are basically virtual cds.) However, If the app comes with the extension .pkg, that's just like the setup.exe file that you've seen a billion times in

You are all fantastic, I cannot express that enough, and indeed, those instructions were absolute perfection. :) Spent today playing with Safari a little more, downloaded and installed Skype, and have played around the app store a bit. Thanks for your patient instruction; this is what
