I too don’t understand what Alice’s problem is. When I download something it goes straight into my downloads folder. If incomplete, I hear …part. Which tells me the file is not completely downloaded a

Sounds complicated. The interesting thing is with Zoom some sighted persons cannot tell if they are muted or not. The host is constantly telling them to mute themselves. Myself, I just do the alt A co

I’m in twice a week meetings and have used zoom since the inception of the meetings via zoom in March 020. The controls are simple, Alt A to mute or unmute yourself, Alt V to turn on or off your video

I agree. 98% of the time the dictate function gets what I am trying to say. Yes, it is ultimately the responsibility of the sender to make sure what is being sent is what one is truly saying with no g

Perhaps I never used the word wake.

I did not know it even existed. I tend to stay away from voice assistive things if at all possible. I've had some interesting experiences with the dictate function on my iPhone as in saying , "Thrift

This in no way is a reflection on the moderation of this group. However, the comment was made if you have any complaints to contact the moderator. In theory that should work and often does. However, i

Someone had a good dose of their cranky pills this morning. Smile.

Glen, your post reminded me of when a blind person taught a class on how to use a screen reader. He suggested we turn off our monitors. His sighted live in came around and told me my monitor was broke

For the trainer to wear a blind fold it shows whether the dog is indeed guiding them properly or they are in a sense directing the dog. Some students have washed out at a guide dog school because they

The school that requires all students to wear a blind fold does this so everyone is on a level playing field. True instructors can do wear a blind fold, but they can take it off at the end of the day.

A guide dog trainer told me when she wore the blind fold for one day at the end of the day she had such a headache when she had to drive home. After seeing nothing, all of a sudden she was flooded wit

Here is a twist, A group of O & M instructors were at a seminare with some of their students. The power went out and they panicked. They went so far as to put candles on the rug so they could be guide

I agree with Brian. At one of the guide dog schools, one of the days all students have to wear a blind fold or night shade from after Breakfast to supper. This is generally a total of 8 hours. Point?

It has been a while I just remember nothing on that suite was of interest to me. It to me was like, I can’t stand Opera music, no matter where it comes from, it is still opera. I don’t think any of th

That’s nice, if you live in the U K. But, a lot of us don’t. I myself did download Speak on a while back, then deleted it as it is strictly UK content.
