Mac

Hi
Subject says it all. Is it possible to some how turn off the clicks when one is typing in a secure text field on mac? I have typing echo set to nothing, but the clicks still remain.
On a related note, if anyone has a fix for the same thing in iOS, it'd be greatly appreciated (though let me know if cross posting would be prefered).

Best

Hello all!

I've spent the last week or so building a new screen reader for the Mac, called TurnOver. I've been pretty vocal about how poorly VoiceOver now behaves in some apps: Mail, Safari, Terminal and Microsoft Word. So I built something to take over in exactly those apps. The aim is no more unexpected behaviour in Mail, more consistent reading and control in Terminal, a Word that behaves itself, and fewer "Safari not responding" announcements.

I've noticed this behavior ever since updating to macOS sequoia.
If I go to watch a show in the TV app on my mac, whether the show is from Apple tV Plus or Paramount Plus, both of which I subscribe to through the tV app, I am no longer immediately presented with the audio described version of the content. It is necessary for me to find the audio pop up button, and choose english AD. This step should not be necessary, as I have audio descriptions enabled under system settings.

Trying to install Tweesecake on an m2 Mac. When I can get it to where it will open but that's all it will do. Any further attempts to launch the app just get me a Tweesecake is not responding message. I have not had this problem with any other app. I checked system Dialogs, nothing there. Also checked Privacy and Security and I am set to allow apps from the App Store.
I an using the latest version of Sanoma and the latest version of the app despite the Mac insisting said app needs an update.

Hi everyone happy New Year hope you're all doing well and staying safe. Does an audio walk-through for tweesecake on Mac OS X exist? I'm a complete beginner and want to learn how to use it and I think in this case an audio walk-through may be best. Thanks for your help everyone hope to hear from you soon :-)

Hi,
I've just recently begun getting into twitter, and I have heard several times on the podcast about Tweetings. I have it for my iPhone, and that one seems to be working correctly. The OS X version however, seems to have a bug. When I open it, Voice Over becomes very sluggish, and I hear "busy" whenever I try to hit keys. All in all i cannot use it at all at this point. Any suggestions on who to remedy this?

Hi, all. I get immediate notifications for Twitter in Night Owl, but how do i review the ones in Twitter, such as who has followed me, etc? Is this all done in the notification center, or is there an interface in Night Owl that will show this info? Thanks.

Could someone please point me to a guide or reference for how to accessibly use the twitter.com website in Safari on Mac OS? Yes, I know I could use an app like Easy Chirp or NightOwl, or something on iOS, but the Twitter website claims it is accessible. I'd love to see an overview. Thanks for any help.

hi
I am trying to report a bug that I have noticed on the latest version of Mac OS> I am running a Mac book Air early 2014.
I am running Mojave version 10.14.1 the bug I am experiencing is this:
when in the log in screen I have my voice set to Karen compact but for some reason the compact Daniel voice is still speaking certain aspects such as when entering text on the log in screen. I double checked and my voice is not set to "automatically based set on language" option.

Greetings everybody,

I noticed there are two Macintosh HDs on my Macbook Pro - one is named "Macintosh HD volume" and another "Macintosh HD data volume" while I was learning to navigate on my braille device. Macintosh HD data is empty when I opened it to find out what it's for.

Is this standard for Mac computers? Or should I just have my laptop's hard drive wiped out and re-installed?

Happy
Holidays,
Jator

Hi,

I have noticed two bugs for VoiceOver in MacOS 26.0.1. I have already reported this to Apple using the feedback website (https://www.apple.com/feedback), but would encourage anyone reading this to see if they experience the same issues and independently report it to Apple as well if so. In addition, I would like to hear any comments from you if you are experiencing these and any work arounds you may have found. The two issues are as follows:

Hi all. Since restoring to Yosemite, i've found two strange things. First, I have an HP deskjet 6940 printer. I keep seeing the update come across, saying I need version 3.0 for the printer software. Keep in mind the printer wasn't connected. Anyway every time i install it, maybe a day later, I see one update, and that's what it is. Anyone have any idea? Second, whenever i write anything with a B either in a text field like this, or any other site, Voice over won't saythe letter B when I backspace over it.

Working with someone trying to get their mac up and going. Two weird things.
1. Have set VoiceOver to come on at log on through System Preferences, Screen Lock, Accessibility, VoiceOver, made sure it was ON and hit Done. But the setting doesn't stick. It works once or twice and then reverts back to no VoiceOver at logon.
2. The word "Authentication" seems to randomly appear sometimes and blocks the user from logging in. VO+Left Arrow or VO+Right Arrow doesn't move to anything else and the computer beeps.

Hi all.
So i reinstalled mac os 10.10. I really am enjoying it so far.
I did wonder two things though:
I am trying to tell voiceover to allow apple script to control it. Did they manage to break this feature in the latest 10.10.3 build/
Also, in pages, are you able to use templates to fill in information?
Thanks for any help.
