• The parameters visually impaired have disappeared. How to recover this featurs or reset?

  I'm seriously visually impaired. I have Windows 7.  I used parameters - arrow cursor black "BOLD", extended test. etc. - until these capabilities missing rewcently.

  All of a sudden all the texts and other long were too small for me to see with any degree of ease and prompt recognition.  I went to the option of customization (Control Panel) and apply the larger text setting - 150%.

  All the computers I've owned came with the function of accessibility for people with disabilities. What happened to mine? How can I get it back and how?  -DEW

  Hello pink,

  The starter edition of Word/Excel is just a very hobbled version of the real programs - more designed to frustrate you when buying the main period shows you in them. This is not to say however that it is not a potential problem.

  I have a similar, though not as serious problem on my system, and here's how I deal with it. I also have my set screen at 150 DPI because of vision problems. For many programs, including my e-mail program, this causes problems when they are not "DPI aware. Engineer-speak for programs that do not and are not able to deal with ppp parameters such as you and I use it.

  Workaround: right-click on the icon of the program on the desktop and select Properties. Then select the tab compatibility on the top row. Mark the following settings:

  (1) (check the operation in the area of program compatibility mode and the menu drop-down select Windows 7.

  (2) check the box in front of the line that reads turn off display timing of high DPI settings.

  (3) check the box in front of the line that reads run as administrator.

  4) click on "Apply" (from the second row of buttons).

  (5) click on apply to all the users box.

  (6) repeat these same settings for all users.

  7) click on 'Apply' (from the second row of buttons).

  8) click on 'OK' and 'OK '.

  In addition to my e-mail program, my 3 rd-party and Firefox need file manager this tweak in order to maintain the font size, I put in them.

  Unfortunately, it must be done individually for each application behave badly and settings don't always hold, but it is the best and so far only, workaround that I found the problem.

  Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

  Kind regards

• I'm visually impaired, and due to changes in UI v29, I see is no longer the menu bar where it is hidden in the title bar. How can I move it back to where it belongs?

  I have two computers at home and their improved to 29 of Firefox not knowing it contained UI heavy Exchange. I use the menu, bar and it is now superimposed on the title bar, where due to a visual disability, I can no longer see. Both systems have contrasting colors lit (white on a black background - forget Aero and trick themes), and Firefox is configured to use the system colors.

  Prior to version 29, the menu bar has white text on a black background. now it's on a background of colorful and almost completely invisible to me. The expansion is via the Windows Magnifier and Magnifier added to some Microsoft mouse top of range.

  As you can see on a brand new Virgin of installation of Firefox, no addons, no pre-existing profile, version 29 puts the menu bar on the taskbar. And Firefox, set up as I have, on a configured system with contrasting colors (black in my case) enabled, Firefox is unthemeable.

  But no matter, I Solver this myself. I started in XP and not update Firefox to find a new addon named "Classic theme restaurant" Who did the trick. This mark as resolved. But...

  I wish (not just Firefox) developers who want to fancy to the top of their interfaces would think how it would affect people with visual impairments. We use computers too.

• Can I have 2 completely different set ups for FF (different users - visually impaired)

  I've been using FF for several years and love the way I can make the text larger and the size of fonts on the toolbars, among other things. My wife, however, is very limited vision and has been using IE and she can't do it all and she had other problems of IE. I just installed Chrome to check it out and it doesn't seem to be a way to do this either (so much Chrome). There are the 'high contrast' themes, but they didn't do enough, are the wrong colors or cause a lot of problems with some pages. Is there a way I can use 2 completely separate FF, with different toolbars versions, screen fonts, colors for toolbars, sizes of fonts, a way to have 2 completely separate lists of bookmarks and preferences, etc. ? As the computer is shared, it should be able to switch between users and configurations. The ability to configure FF you like is really so far in front of other browsers.

  You can create another folder of Firefox profile for your wife if you both use the same Windows account.

• IOS10 FONT size of email problems

  Resizing fonts in email threads has always been consistent with IOS9. Not with IOS10. In fact, the police is smaller and makes it difficult to read if you are visually impaired. This is not an improvement, and I was very happy with IOS9. Why fix something that isn't broken?

  Hello and welcome to Apple support communities, BryanCBT.

  If I understand your message to the right, the font size of the e-mail messages in your mail app is too small, and you have trouble reading. I am happy to help you with a solution for this then you can start to take advantage of Mail in iOS 10.

  You can actually very easily change the font on your iPhone in settings > brightness and view > text size. If you need even larger font sizes, you can do it in the accessibility settings. Here are the steps:
  
  

  Larger font

  1. Go to settings > general > accessibility > bigger text (or more big Type of iOS 7).
  2. Turn on the accessibility of size (or more big dynamic Type in iOS 7) for larger font options.
  3. Drag the cursor to select the desired font size.

  Turn on the other accessibility settings

  Go to settings > general > accessibility to make the "BOLD" text, increase the contrast or invert the colors on your screen.

  Change the font size on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

  There are also a few additional accessibility features available for the needs of the vision. You can view all here:iOS. A wide range of features for a wide range of needs.

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  Take care.

• Outlook for Mac 2016 Question - not color the backgrounds of emails - no response from MS

  Can I add background color to an e-mail message in outlook 2016 for mac? As a solid green or yellow, for example? I can't in 2011 using the tab options. Which is available in 2016 to Outlook for Mac?

  No indication of support for MS and Google comes to nothing... Maybe some poor soul like me uses MS Outlook 2016 and knows.

  I'm still in 2011 (as part of 365) but have a client who pays me a lot of $$$ but is visually impaired and needs a dark background and a red font. Don't want to upgrade until I know the answer.

  Any response - mucho appreciated!
