After all the confusion with iTunes 12.1 Apple is back swinging.
12.1.1 Has fixed all the navigation issues, and works nicely out of the box with Jaws 16, so I suspect it will work well with other screen readers.
You need no scripts or add ons.
If you had installed the fix for 12.1, you already know the added features, but if not, if you do upgrade, you’ll find iTunes is easy to use, and gives you more information on your library.
Enjoy.
Since I've posted, I've been using it.
I'll now go so far to say I believe it is the best accessible iTunes Apple has released.
I even think it is the best iTunes period, due to features.
It is plain beautiful as far as controls, and all that is available.
Braise for this one.
Keep a copy someplace in case you don't like the next installment. This one you'll greeve for.
Yes, it seems to also play well with NVDA. I did not try Window-Eyes, but am glad Apple got right on this one. Too bad they won't do that with VoiceOver fixes, but they're busy with the Apple Watch I suppose. Thank you for the heads up, I went ahead and installed based on your post. Works fine with JAWS 14 also.
I tested Jaws 15 and 16. Works great.
Yay!!!!! Now I'll update. Woop woop! As always, thanks, Wayne.
Okay, last brag or boast.
I liked this version so well, I wrote Apple a praise note.
I'm serious, it is the most accessible I've ever used.
The wish list works, sending links, copying music to my computers library, playlist.
You name it, it just rocks.
I've not had so much pleasure using it before at all. Even with scripts, it seemed to have something that was difficult, or not available, but not this version.
Do yourself a favor and read the keybord shortcut, and set it so you can use them. These make it simply a dream.
If you use Jaws, there are some for it as well.
now I find this out after I downgraded? go figure.... lol oh well, i'll just upgrade. although I do not like running it on this aging puter.
I find it soooo confusing. I guess its not for everyone.
I'm sorry, but I wouldn't agree that this is the best itunes version yet, I liked v 11 better.
Since this board and Apple Music it has updated several times.
The current version works nicely.
It's up to 12.3 something now on the Mac.
I believe it is also up to like, 12.3 or something similar on windows. I updated a week or so ago, I think.
That sounds right, my update for iTunes happened on the 15th I believe. The
App store on the mac shows this.
