This is the Apple, Mac and Voice Over page on Blind Crawler.com. On this page you will find programs and links that should be Voice Over friendly, or at least usable by the blind and sighted. One tip I will give Mac users is as follows: If you find an application that is written in the Cocoa programming language, install it and give it a try because there is a good chance it will work with Voice Over.

Here is a lady that is no mermaid out of water when it comes to Mac knowledge. If she doesn't have the answer for you about your Mac or iOS device, then the knowledge has been deemed far too dangerous for you to know.

If you have stumbled on this site looking for Voice Over compatible applications for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, here is a site to visit. It has a community of iPhone users who have taken the time to find what apps, games and so on are accessible on them. Because users are able to submit and review what they find, there is more being added every day. They also have a section for user submitted tutorials that is also growing. So if you are trying to find, or have found iPhone, iPad, and iPod accessible apps and games, definitely give the Apple Vis website a look.

Adium IM is one of those Mac programs that has become sort of essential to most Voice Over users that use instant messengers. It is a multi-messenger that will work with Windows Live, Yahoo Messenger, AOL, and many other messengers including IRC.

In my opinion, here is another essential. This is the download page for Skype for the Mac. If you don't know what Skype is, here, let me lift the rock you have been living under and provide you with a link to download and try it.

This is the Mac version of Open Office. A free alternative to Microsoft Office. Now for those who have experienced Open Office on Windows with Jaws, and were less than impressed with its accessibility on Windows? Fear not, this is one of those programs where the Mac does actually work better than Windows. In fact, so much better, you may even enjoy using it.

Amadeus Pro is a multi-track editor available for the Mac, and is also accessible with Voice Over. It is much easier to use than Garage Band that does come included on most Macs with the iLife suite of applications. It unfortunately is not a free program, but $40 is much less than the $400 that Adobe Audition costs on Windows. Now, does it have all of the functionality that Adobe Audition would have? No, but I bet it would do everything that 99% of the people do on a sound editor.
