OK.  I won't be posting anything I find on the Apple community forum again.
I had not looked at iTunes 12 when I search for information and some idiot
claimed that the library and such was under playlists.  It didn't make
sense, but I thought it might be a reliable source.  Just another example of
you can't believe everything you read, especially on the internet.

 

So, now that I have updated to iTunes 12, it isn't that bad, just very
different.

I am using Windows 8.1.

Here are some hot keys that might help:

control+1 = Music

Control+2 = Movies

Control+3 = TV Shows

Control+4 = Podcasts

Control+5 = iTunes U

Control+6 = Auydio Books

Control+7 = Apps

Control+8 = Tones

Control+9 = iTunes Radio

Control+j = View Options

Control+Shift+U = Show Up Next

D = Show Duplicate Items

Control+Shift+3 Show Downloads

 

You still have to do some tabbing around and experimenting to see what works
best for you, but you can still get to songs, artists, albums, etc.

I'm using Window-Eyes and so far, everything seems to be accessible.

As a Windows user, I don't use VoiceOver when using iTunes.

Maybe I am misunderstanding what is being discussed here because I don't
understand why you would tab all over the place. There are still radio
buttons which you can get to perfectly fine with voiceover and arrows.
Besides that, there are shortcuts: try starting with cmd-1 and see what
happens. But all they do is check the radio buttons which you can also check
with vo-space.

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper

thrown in the trash!

Then God gave me a new heart and life:

His joy for my despairing tears!

And now, every day:

"This I call to mind,

and therefore I have hope:

The steadfast love of the Lord

never ceases;

his mercies never come to an end;

they are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness."

(Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV)

I'm curious. Are there keyboard shortcuts for the buttons, or do you use
tab? I don't think I would like tabbing all over the place. I know iTunes
for the Mac used to have some shortcuts for getting to music, movies, etc.,
like option f5 or some such. Barring that, I'd probably use a touchpad. But
the idea of tabbing everywhere seems very clunky to me.

Hi David,





So, if this is the case, are the icons accessible with VO? I haven't yet
upgraded to iTunes 12 yet. Can you access these icons using VO-M? 





Thanks:





Eileen

Acording to my sighted partner, these are now all icons at the top of the
display. She finds it to be much more visually appealing and easier to use.
,the device icon appears when the device is plugged in. There is no longer
anything that is labelled library. There is home, music, movies, more
(podcasts, iTunes U, audio books, apps, tones (ring tones), internet radio,
exit), and finally the device icon. Visually, these are on the bar directly
underneath the bar with the play buttons.

Certainly the sidebar is no more so will take some getting used to for those
accustomed to it. Don't think the device and library are in playlists.

I just heard that iTunes 12 really does not have the sidebar we are used to.

Apparently, the devices and library are under playlist.

Anyone updated that can confirm how this works on the Windows side of
things?
