Does speaking while typing not work in every program?

We are trying to use Pages (iWork '08) as word processor with VoiceOver. While typing, VoiceOver does not seem to read the characters and/or words. This works fine, when using e.g. TextEdit, so the VoiceOver preferences seem to be correct.
Does anybody have the same problems?
Thank you for any help.

You're perfectly correct! Pages is not accessible to VoiceOver. VisioVoice from AssistiveWare has a spoken interface which provides some assistance with this, but it's clumsy and awkward to produce and edit documents in Pages.
This has already been reported to the iWork development team, but please do submit a bug report to Apple via the feedback page. The greater the pressure, the quicker we'll get iWork accessible throughout!
Thanks in advance!
Archie

  • Why does my While loop not work?

    I was using the SetInterval timer but this kept causing problems getting the timing right,
    So I thought - get the loop to work infiitely...
    var cond=0;
    while (cond !=1){
    $("#DivStage1").fadeIn(1000);
    $("#DivStage1").delay(6500).fadeOut(500); //8000
    $("#DivStage1_1").show("slide", {direction:'left'}, 1000);
    $("#DivStage1_1").delay(6500).hide("slide", {direction:'left'},500);
    $("#DivStage1_2").delay(1000).show("slide", {direction:'left'}, 1000);
    $("#DivStage1_2").delay(5500).hide("slide", {direction:'left'}, 1000);
    $("#DivStage2").delay(8000).fadeIn(1000);
    $("#DivStage2").delay(17000).fadeOut(500); //8000 to 16000
                            $("#DivStage2_1").delay(8000).show("slide", {direction:'left'}, 1000);
                             $("#DivStage2_1 h2 #1 style='color: #FFF;'").show();
                             $("#DivStage2_1").delay(16000).hide("slide", {direction:'left'},500);
    The page does not execute the loop.
    Thanks in advance for any feedback

    Create a function for the loop and call the function when the document is ready.
    Don't forget to include the jQuery library, jquery.js or similar.

  • Why does my card reader not work on my iPad since upgrade?

    I use my iPad mini to download photos from my camera when I'm on the road. In the summer I bought the "3 in 1 Card Reader Adapter Cable Camera Connection Kit, 3 Port Card Reader for iPad 4 and iPad Mini by Eurekka" and it worked wonderfully. I was able to download photos (jpg and RAW) directly to the iPad and off the camera, and once home it was a flawless upload to my iMac.
    However, once I upgraded to iOS 7 last week I get a message saying the device is not supported. What gives? Will this be fixed or will Apple products only accept Apple accessories from now on?

    No but I was just trying to find a way in to your help desk. I didn't find 
    your web page very helpful in this regard.

  • HT1688 I have a speaker that is not working

    It has been less than a year and I have a speaker that is not working on my phone. How do I get this problem resolved?

    If you are referring to the speaker at the bottom of the phone, there is 1 speaker, one microphone. Otherwise contact Apple for repair or replacement under warranty.

    Why does drag and drop not work?

    Do you mean that when you move files on the Desktop, they don't stay where you put them ?.
    If so - use Finder - View menu - Show View options & choose 'Arrange by' : none
    If not - please describe exactly what the problem is.

  • Why does my free trial not work?

    Why does my free trial not work?  This is intentially misleading.

    You need to provide a better description of what isn't working, system info and all that. This could be all sorts of technical issues or your trial could simply have bombed itself. In the latter case there is nothing you can do:
    Adobe trial software expired early
    Anything else like iunstall issues can in most cases be sorted out...

  • Two part question 1) what happens if you  sign into messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5 after it expired? does the whole application not work or just imessage? 2) does installing messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5  delete ichat?

    Two part question
    1) what happens if you  sign into messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5 after it expired? does the whole application not work or just imessage? can you stil use AIM, jabbar, google talk, or yahoo?  if you open messages beta does it immediately tell you that messages beta expired?
    2) does installing messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5  delete ichat or just transform ichat into messages beta giving the illusion that ichat is deleted?

    Hi,
    It was never completely clear whether it was just hidden or whether Apple ran a download page for iChat 6.
    As the Download for Messages Beta was separate and "Deleted" iChat it would seem it would be another download for iChat 6.
    iMessages will not function as it is only an Account type within Messages and iChat 6 does not have it.
    Therefore messages on the iPhone will not sync to the Mac. (until you get Mountain Lion and Messages in that OS X version).
    Mountain Lion and it's full version of Messages will not sync the iMessages that have happened in between the 14th December 2012  (end date of Messages beta) and the Install of Mountain Lion if you decide on that route.

    Yes, I am connected to the Internet through my wifi. Everything is working fine with the e  eption of youtube.  I have reset all Internet settings and have tried synching to iTunes followed by rebooting.  This is all the advice I have found although none of it has been helpful.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?

  • Why does my command c not working?

    why does my command c not working?

    Hi,
    In relation to what ?
    Your post has ended up in the iChat Community and does not appear to have anything to do with iChat or Messages.
    My first thought would be have you highlighted something that you want to copy from one place to another ?
    My second would be that you have created a CMD + C custom keystroke and there is conflict with the OS use of this.
    My third would be there just is not enough info to work on

  • When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator)

    Mac OS X 10.6.7
    CS 5.5
    When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator). This happens only when Firefox is open and when I close it the zoom functions work fine again without having to restart the applications.
    This is intermittent but happens quite frequently each day if Firefox is active.

    MDN doesn't mention -chrome being used for ordinary web pages: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options#Chrome
    When I use
    firefox.exe -chrome about:permissions
    I get a usable window, but zoom doesn't work as you noted.
    How about using an intermediate page and window.open() for the target page? You can (mostly) restrict the chrome of windows opened that way, but it will leave behind the intermediate window...
