Hello all,
Right now I have my MacBook air set up in a dual boot configuration with windows10. How can I remove the windows10 bootcamp partition so I only have mac OS on my computer?

Thanks,

Hi all. Me again, with another question, because apparently I do things with my Mac that nobody else does. LOL.

Prior to Ventura, I had configured my Mac to automatically mount a NAS drive at startup. I did this in system preferences, under either users or accounts. As I recall, it was almost identical to where (and how) you would configure an application to automatically start at login.

Now I'm on Ventura, and I'm aware that login items are now under system settings, general. And when I go there, I see all the apps I've configured to launch at login.

How does one save images (photos etc.) that are sent to me and I open in the message app? The Apple help wasn't that helpful. I can navigate to the JPEG file in the message, but can't figure out how to save it from there using VoiceOver.

I'm running Sierra on a Mac Mini if that matters.

Thanks.

Hi AppleVisers,
In Windows you can simply scroll through folders with many files by pressing the page down or page up key. Under MacOS, this actually doesn't work. When I select a big folder and open it and then press page down (FN+Arrow down), nothing happens. So, how can I scroll quickly or in larger steps through such a big folder?

Best,

Hi,
Since updating to Catalina I haven't been able to search for messages from within the mail app. Previously I would use command opt f, type a query, and things would work more or less smoothly. Now when I press command opt f I hear "mailbox search" but it doesn't appear my focus moves to an edit field. Typing the first letter seems to maybe move me to a message that starts with that letter, but subsequent letters don't seem to work. Is this a bug, or did I some how mess up a setting somewhere.

Hi everyone,

So... Not sure really where to post this.
I tried Claude AI very late but I have been blown away by its depth, in the bigger conversation style. I love the ios app, it's honestly the best among all ai apps I've tried, chatgpt, gemini and perplexity.
How do we change the style on the web version on mac? The lack of headings is less of a problem but if we can't reliably change the style mid conversation...
Like in the prompt style before the first message I see 5 options but they are not quite the same thing that we have on mobile?
Thanks!

Hello all, I am writing for clearing my doubt due to my inability to find the correct way of doing this. So I am in finder and manage to navigate to a particular folder. But now if I don't want to open the folder but just compress it to zip file then how do I do it.

Hello,

I know one can use drag and drop to send files over Wi-Fi from Mac to nearby iPhone using Airdrop. However, since drag and drop is problematic using VoiceOver, could someone tell me how can I transfer files some another way over Wi-Fi using VoiceOver? I am not looking for iCloud Drive file transfer or an other way which uses transfer over Internet, I am looking for a way how to achieve that using AirDrop.

I am running macOS 10.15.1 Catalina and iOS 13.2.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I am a new Macbook user. I just bought a Mac air m3 and I have become pretty much comfortable with it. My questions come from the fact that I come from Ubuntu Linux background with Orca as my screen reader. Also I just mentioned emails but my question applies to several notifications. So I have successfully configured apple mail and I am able to read, reply and compose emails. My problem is that while mail is opened all the time, I don't here a new mail notification when one arrives in the inbox. I have herd such alerts in Ubuntu (and I suppose in Windows also ).

Hello,
I searched a lot, but couldn't find how to set row and column titles in Tables, mainly in Numbers. I think it should also work in Pages.
Thanks in advance,

Well, this could be of interest to many people fancying VoiceOver switching automatically from one language to another.
I have recently moved to Mac, and emailed Apple Accessibility Team about implementing this feature into future releases of OS X.
Meanwhile, I had to find a solution for this. I purchased InfoVox iVox voice credits. A friend was nice enough to come up with idea on how to make this available in VO.

Hi all. I just upgraded and wow 50% is pretty fast. I can't slow it down no matter what i do. can anyone help? also for some reason, it double speaks when I backspace, super annoying. Thanks. Also this is ventera 13.1 though i'm on the beta cycle i don't think that's it. One last thing, I set the verbocity to low, and now when I'm in the mail app, it just says messages, I was used to the table, then the first message. any help would be great.

For the life of me, I can't seem to figure out how to sort finder items. I press VO+SHIFT+\ to get into the headers, then I can press the header title to sort by that column in the table. However, I can't sort by multiple columns. I need to sort on filename in ascending order, then by type, making sure that folders are on top of the list. This is what Windows does by default. Does anyone know how to do this?
