Hi!
I've been given several Microsoft word forms to fill out, which contain checkboxes and drop down menus. Does anyone know if it is possible to fill these out correctly with voiceover on the mac or iPad? Even if it involves a third party app.
I just want my forms to look presentable, so I'm hoping someone has an answer.

Using M1 Mini with Big Sur 11.3 and Microsoft 365. Typing echo is not working. It works fine on Textedit as well as all other browser and apps. Tried various tricks, but I can't solve the problem. Is there a setting with 365?

Hello there, hope you are staying warm.
For sometimes, I am facing a huge problem with the word application and the voice-over.
The voice-over does no announce any letter when I type it, or it does not say when the cursor moves in the text field.
Does anyone know the solution? Thanks.

Hi,
I'm not sure if someone has already asked this, but I'm wondering why sometimes, when I go to the next page in Word, VoiceOver reads the text as if it were in the same line and it is not. Also, when looking on my Braille Display, I see the new line marker and then the words which should be on the next line, but are placed exactly after that marker. Furthermore, often words are cut in half, the first part appearing on a line and the second on another, and VoiceOver reads them like that and my Braille display shows them in this way, even if word wrap is enabled.

Anyone else experiencing VoiceOver issues with Word on Mac? When I cursor through a document instead of VoiceOver reading line by line as I cursor down it just reads the whole document. Don't know if it's something I've done but I have contacted Apple accessibility and they said they have received similar reports.

Hello everyone. As we all know Microsoft Office for Mac even the 2016 version isn't fully accessible. However I spoke to an Apple Advisor about this and what I really want to use is Microsoft Word. The Advisor says that there are 2 options in this situation. I could use Apple's Pages app which contains an option for creating Word Documents. The second option is that I could get the original Microsoft Word app from the App Store. Has anyone used the Pages app which I have read is a beautiful Word Processor. How accessible is it with Voiceover?

I'm using Microsoft edge on sonoma. I'll be on only one site this does this and suddenly, i'm back in the apps folder. When i open Edge again, it's just on the new tab screen. The site is e-rewards It's easy side hustle. If anyone wants a referral link contact me off list. Btw, i'm just mentioning the site, not trying to promote it or push anyone into anything.

Hello all,
I have been using MacOS for a little under a year now, and I am interested in finding an accessible way to create, edit, and sequence MIDI files. In Windows, programs like Lime Aloud and QWS are available, but I have yet to find any information about MIDI in MacOS using voice-over. Is Garage Band an option for accomplishing this task? Are there other programs that you have found to meet your MIDI sequencing needs? Please let me know your thoughts.

Good Evening,
i'm trying to migrate from Safari to microsoft Edge.
I can't get my bookmarks or history to import.
Does anyone know why this might be & what I can do to fix it?
In case it helps, I'm running the latest version of Microsoft edge under MacoS Sonoma.
Since I'm running the beta, I wasn't sure where to put this topic, since its not directly related to the beta itself.
If the admins would like to move it, please feel free to do so & i'll make note of the change for next time.

Now that I have acquired a refurbished MacBook Pro( 2015, 8GB memory and 128GB SSD), I am curious to know how you guys manage with the missing Control key on the right. I am facing some teething issues with VO commands like VO-A, VO-F, VO-G etc. your suggestions are appreciated.

Hi, yesterday I realized that there are a lot of missing loops in my garageband.
It is supposed that I have downloaded all the library, and the only way to correct it is reinstalling the whole library, but it took a lot of time downloading 16 gb of loops and at the end the installation failed.

Hi all. i wrote a long email, and spell checked it with command semicolon. Then, as I sent the message and the normal spelling dialog come up. I don't think I understood the other spell check, but that's my fault. Anyway I heard the send swish, but I can't find the message in my sent items. Any idea what i've done? It's not in my drafts folder. Thanks for any help.

Hey everyone. This isn't necessarily a problem for me, but merely a curious bug perhaps? I've been going through all the free voices available for my Mac, and trying them out. These include the ones available from Nuance, or whatever they're calling themselves now. I seem to be missing Sangeeta and Emily. I think those are the only 2 that have gone missing, but there may be more. I've checked everywhere in the Voices tab of the Speech category in the Voiceover Utility, but can't find them. When I say Emily I'm referring to the British-English voice, not the French one.

Hi all. I figured now that the Flexi thing has cooled, we can get back to the real discussion and that's accessibility of apps and things. I'm posting this here, because i've only used the mobile southwest air site on my Mac. It used to be fantastic. Now when you go there, there are a username, password, and login buttons, or a continue as guest, button. For some reason nothing seems to happen when I click on them. The main site is, ok, but I enjoyed the convenience of the mobile site.

Hi. I have been playing Cyclepath for quite some time now. I am in the process of trying to figure out how the modern turning feature works. I read on another thread that if you listen for the sounhd of your wheels, you are in the center of the road, and you just have to try to keep that sound centered, at least that is what I thought I understood. I have been playing with modern turning for two or so hours, and the most I can get is a crash after about 20 seconds. How in the world does one keep the bike centered?

Hi all: anyone having the same problems or a solution (if it is just me having messed up my settings)? I've got a 13 inch Macbook PRO with touch bar, Mojave, Focus Blue 40 (connected with adapter <for USB, ethernet etc.), Cap Lock as VO-Keys and Zoom off/disabled and Security Vault enabled/On. I can only activate buttons etc with the braille display (Cap+space bar) does not work. When the braille display is disconnected, the Cap+spacebar works most times. But not always and never on pop up menu's.
