Hi John, Feel free to reach out off list and I can help you sort it out. Yes, it's not something that you have to deal with often but, I assure you, it's smooth once you have the hang of it. Best, Slau > On Apr 24, 2017, at 5:35 PM, John Covici wrote: > > No, I really

No, I really did mean the ilock license manager. I could not sign in, or anything else using voiceover. I think I have it set to remember my credentials, I will have to check, and thank goodness I don't have to do this very often. On Mon, 24 Apr 2017 16:44:08 -0400, Slau Halatyn wrote: > > Hi

Hi Slau, Yup, I've played around with it a bit. It looks like it's built on qT, or one of those cross-platform UI frameworks in which case they've done very very very well to make it as usable as they have. Cheers, Dónal > On 24 Apr 2017, at 21:42, Slau Halatyn wrote:

Hi John, I'm assuming you're referring to the Application Manager rather than the iLok License Manager. Slau > On Apr 24, 2017, at 3:59 PM, John Covici wrote: > > I have found that program completely inaccessible and had to get eye > balls whenever I use it, thank

Hi Dónal, My experience with the iLok License Manager has been extremely consistent. For what it's worth, it's not, strictly speaking, a Mac application and is fully cross-platform between Windows and Mac. The instructions in the user manual as well as my demo both suggest that, for best

hi Slau, OH the behaviour is more or less as it was, it's just choosing the wrong iLok for me and I see no way to change it. In other words, the one selected in the application isn't the one connected to the device. I'd also comment that from a User Experience perspective, it's very

Hi Dónal, I've seen no issues with the iLok License Manager. In fact, it has never changed behavior. What issue are you having? Slau > On Apr 24, 2017, at 1:35 PM, Donal Fitzpatrick > wrote: > > Hi Slau, > > Yup I've had the login issues until a recent update.

Hi Slau, Yup I've had the login issues until a recent update. I've now disabled it completely. On a related topic: how are you finding the iLok license manager these days? I still find it a challenge, I have to say. Regards, Dónal > On 24 Apr 2017, at 18:23, Slau Halatyn

Hi Dónal, Well, you're not the only one to have troubles. Sweetwater's engineers most often encourage users to simply disable the Application Manager because so many have had trouble with it. I've personally had no issues with it until only very recently but, when it works, it works great.

Hi Chuck, Perfectly happy to do that. It's weird, none of the standard cursor routing keystrokes will bring either the mouse or keyboard to where I want them to go. This thing reminds me of my four-year old: It has a mind of its own, and takes some serious pressure to do what it's tole. :)

Hi Donal, The app manager is sad to say the least! :( Almost every "beta teem" conference call I bring this up but still no joy! If you have an Avid support plan I suggest you call them and have them do it for you to save time! This will bring this issue up again from your having to call and let

Hi there, Sadly, no joy with that whatsoever. Interestingly, VO doesn't report anything under the mouse once I execute the move. I had thought of the off-screen issue, but not the page-down solution. However, even after executing this command multiple times, no joy. Tis most odd indeed.

Hi Dónal, Depending upon where in the physical list the item appears, it might actually be off screen even though voiceOver will still read it. Since the Application Manager really only responds to mouse clicks rather than default actions, it's necessary to take steps to ensure things are
