Hello all, I am new to this board and realtively new to v/o on the Mac so I apaaologize if this has been addressed but in the realm of Skype type program, I am trying to use IChat and can not seem to show myslef as online/available even I go to that menu and choose "available" ... I wanted to give permission to a friend to gain access to my screen and I understand that is only available if I start an IChat video chat with him

well, not sure about shortcut keys. You can find the contact in the table, and press VO shift M on it to bring up a menu. In the window that appears when you are calling a contact, is a toolbar, which has a hang up button, as well as many other things. You can also change volume and mute microphone in this window.HTH ash Check out my website: http://www.ashleycox.co.uk and the AC tech podcast: http://www.bavis.co.uk/theactechpodcast----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Moore" <bmoore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, February 12, 2010 11:27 AM Subject: [macvoiceover] mac skype for a beginnerHI all. Just started teaching someone the mac for the first time as she sees many advantages over learning a windows computer. ONe of the first things she wants to do is make skype calls. Got that going with little difficulty, but I wonder if there are hot keys for starting a call andhanging up. I know I can do vo m to get to the menu and go over to call and find the appropriate items but windows use has turned me into a lazy person. I had a hunt through preferences but couldn't find any place wehre Ican setup hot keys for these things. Did I miss something?Also, the getting started with vo manual which is very well done only seemsto be available in an html format now as well as gade ii braille as a brf file. I know someone did a daisy version of the last one. Anyone got a direct url for that as it was a very valuable tool for a beginner and Ilearned a lot about using my mac from it so I would like to be able to shareit as a daisy version. Thanks.
