Quickstart voiceover mistake in documentation
Hi there
How does one slow down the voice in the voiceover tutorial? It is currently too fast. I am trying to teach my father how to use the computer and he is visually impaired. I have adjusted the voice by slowing it down in the settings but it doesn't appear to affect the tutorial at all which seems rather odd. I am using Snow Leopard with all the latest updates. Is this behavior the same in Lion?
Also I just spent 15 minutes trying to figure out how to get the voiceover start up tutorial to run a second time in Snow Leopard. According to Apple's Web Site: http://www.apple.com/accessibility/voiceover/ they tell you to press [Control-Option-Command-F8]. However whenever I press those keys nothing happens. I tried this on more than one laptop and could not get this to work.
After 15 minutes I worked out that it needs to be [fn-Control-Option-Command-F8]. At first I thought perhaps the keys had changed for Lion but I went to the way back machine archive and it is just the same for Snow Leopard [http://web.archive.org/web/20110207212757/http://www.apple.com/accessibility/voi ceover/]. I would be grateful if someone from Apple could adjust their documentation.
Kind regards
