Re: one password for mac

2016-02-29 Thread Sabahattin Gucukoglu
Thanks.  1Password looks great, and like the right overall choice for Mac and 
iOS.  A touch expensive, but the Wi-Fi sync feature alone is worth it.  I’m not 
going with LastPass because (1) LogMeIn owns it and (2) let’s be honest, it’s 
lock-in.  And it turns out that KeePass for iOS isn’t official and only 
supports cloud storage.

The 1Password data storage location for folder sync can be managed, and it 
performs regular backups.  The OPVault format is the cross-platform way to get 
the data out.  I don’t think the SQLite database is meant to be manipulated.

Yeah, going to have some fun with this. :)

That's not the point.  The point is that they put a lot of hard work into 
creating the book, and they deserve to be paid for it.  Few of us would be very

Weird problem in Keynote

2016-02-29 Thread Mitchell Smith
Hi list,

I am having a pretty serious problem I was hoping someone might be
able to help me with.

I was giving a presentation today using Keynote when I noticed some
very strange symptoms.

I open my slide deck and click play on the toolbar, I can interact
with the current slide, but as soon as I navigate to the next slide
VoiceOver refuses to interact with that slide.  It will read the slide
title, but I can't interact with it to read the slide content.


I have used this same slide deck, same version of keynote and same
version of VoiceOver several times in the past with no issues, so I
have no idea what might have changed to cause this problem.

I restored the slide deck from backup and even tried a different slide
deck, same issue.

I checked in app store under updates and nothing has changed in the
ast 30 days, and I gave this same presentation two weeks ago with no
problems.

This is Keynote 6.6.1 on OSX 10.11.3 on a 13" Macbook Air.

Any suggestions on what I can try would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help.

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-02-29 Thread Jonathan Cohn
The most likely suspects are TImeMachine if you have it enabled, and do not 
have the backup disk connected.
Bittorrent clients.

In any case, I love to use du 

the command 
cd / du -s * | sort -n | tail - 20 

While this command will take a while to run it should give you the directories 
that are the 20 largest.

Take care,
Jonathan

Hi all,


I'm pretty new to the refreshable braille reader and the
associated technology in general, so please bear with me. I'm
probably goofing something up.

I have a Humanware Brailliant Bi 40 and I have a Bookshare
membership. I want to read the books in braille as I am hearing
impaired, so I hate listening to books. I'm using the Bookshare
Read2Go app, but I find the app clunky and difficult to use on the
braille display. For example, some pretty basic commands, such as
"scroll page down" doesn't work with the Brailliant.

I know I can download a file specialized for refreshable braille
readers on the website, but I prefer to read away from my desktop.

Has anyone found a good way to use Bookshare with a refreshable
braille reader? Or am I missing some tips?

Any help would be enormously appreciated!  Thanks.

Best,
Cristina

 I'm pretty new to the refreshable braille reader and the
 associated technology in general, so please bear with me. I'm
 probably goofing something up.

 I have a Humanware Brailliant Bi 40 and I have a Bookshare
 membership. I want to read the books in braille as I am hearing
 impaired, so I hate listening to books. I'm using the Bookshare
 Read2Go app, but I find the app clunky and difficult to use on the
 braille display. For example, some pretty basic commands, such as
 "scroll page down" doesn't work with the Brailliant.

 I know I can download a file specialized for refreshable braille
 readers on the website, but I prefer to read away from my desktop.

 Has anyone found a good way to use Bookshare with a refreshable
 braille reader? Or am I missing some tips?

 Any help would be enormously appreciated!  Thanks.

 Best,
 Cristina

That is so stupid, frankly. First of all, you are doing something
illegal by distributing copyrighted work. Second, you say it on a public
list. Third, you said you shouldn't have to pay for the book, yet you
seem to have done so. Fourth and finally, how impolite and rude of you
to talk on the same list as the author and publisher of the book about
giving it away. Have you never had a job? Have you never worried about
feeding yourself, a dog if you have one? Have you really had everything
handed to you for your entire life? I should be so lucky. Until you know
what any of this is like, there is no way you can understand the true
value of a good day's work. If you went to work one day and expected a
check, but were told that you wouldn't be getting one because your
talents are of benefit to everyone, so you don't get to be paid.
Wouldn't that upset you? People deserve to be paid for their time,
energy and hard work. I train people with Mac, iPhone and Windows and
only charge $15 per hour for that training, even though I am recently
JAWS certified. This book, which doubtless contains several hours of
information, costs just over what it would to get two hours of training
from myself. I find this more than reasonable. I for one will probably

Where did my iCloud Drive go?

2016-02-29 Thread Jenine Stanley
My question is probably better stated as where did the stuff on my iCloud Drive 
go? 

I had to change my Apple ID recently and after signing out of iCloud on my MBP, 
I made the change and signed back in, thinking for sure that the next time I 
looked for something on the iCloud Drive, all the stuff would still be there. 

It’s not appearing there. The folders and files that were there prior to me 
signing out are indeed still there as I can see them on my iPhone but there 
seems to be nothing on the MBP. 

If anyone can explain where it went and how to get it to appear again, I’ll be 
eternally grateful.

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-02-29 Thread Brian Fischler
Unfortunately I could not find the program you mentioned and just bought one 
that of course does not work with VO, so back to ground zero here so if anyone 
knows of an accessible program that will tell you what is taking up space on 
your computer do let me know just something basic as this is getting ridiculous 
as it should not be this hard and take this long to find out what is taking up 
space on a mac. Ridiculous that you even have to get a third party program to 
do this.

Re: It's finally here, a comprehensive guide to Pages on the Mac with VoiceOver

2016-02-29 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

Aleeha,

I could not have said your words any better, and I don't think I could agree 
more with you, if someone asked me to do so.


I, too, would sincerely like to thank Anne for her hard work.  You cannot 
know how much it's appreciated, and rest assured, I will support you until 
the very end through this mess.


Chris.

That is so stupid, frankly. First of all, you are doing something illegal by 
distributing copyrighted work. Second, you say it on a public list. Third, 
you said you shouldn't have to pay for the book, yet you seem to have done 
so. Fourth and finally, how impolite and rude of you to talk on the same 
list as the author and publisher of the book about giving it away. Have you 
never had a job? Have you never worried about feeding yourself, a dog if you 
have one? Have you really had everything handed to you for your entire life? 
I should be so lucky. Until you know what any of this is like, there is no 
way you can understand the true value of a good day's work. If you went to 
work one day and expected a check, but were told that you wouldn't be 
getting one because your talents are of benefit to everyone, so you don't 
get to be paid. Wouldn't that upset you? People deserve to be paid for their 
time, energy and hard work. I train people with Mac, iPhone and Windows and 
only charge $15 per hour for that training, even though I am recently JAWS 
certified. This book, which doubtless contains several hours of information, 
costs just over what it would to get two hours of training from myself. I 
find this more than reasonable. I for one will probably purchase this book 
at some point and will gain a lot of information from it. I cannot afford to 
right now, but I will not pirate the book just so I can have the knowledge. 
Thank you Anne and Jonathan for yet another awesome book.

Congratulations on that, I guess.

As much as I enjoy free information, I’m going to go buy a copy of the book 
sometime before this week is out. Finding the time to sit down and delve into 
it is going to be the tricky part.

DFTBA!

   While looking for a Screenflow download (they offer a trial) I
looked for Piezo.  Piezo and Audio Hijack also have trials. Would
either of these do the job? Don't need anything fancy.

Get a copy of Screenflow.  You don't need to buy a license, trust me

days,
it'll put a watermark in your video.  Now, I understand you don't

screenflow
is, it has the ability of not only recording from whatever sound 
input
you want to use, say like, your microphone, but it also can record 
all

system audio, which would include Voiceover.

So, what you'd do is, being that once the trial runs out, all that
happens is that watermark, you're not concerned about that anyway, 
and

the audio would still be fine.  So, record the video.  Let it put a
watermark.  Then, just go back, open up that video created by
Screenflow
in Quicktime, then export it out as an M4A.  there you go.  Mission
accomplished.

Piezo probably could do this, but I think you'd have to do it in
combination with something like Soundflower which could get a little
tricky.

Most of when I need to record my mac's audio, I just run the mac
through
my mixer, so, I'm admittedly not the most up on doing it totally from
the software side of things.

Hopefully, this at least gives you a few ideas though.  Let me know

you need any further clarification.  I'd be happy to help.

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to the refreshable braille reader and the associated

I have a Humanware Brailliant Bi 40 and I have a Bookshare membership. I
want to read the books in braille as I am hearing impaired, so I hate
listening to books. I'm using the Bookshare Read2Go app, but I find the app
clunky and difficult to use on the braille display. For example, some
pretty basic commands, such as "scroll page down" doesn't work with the
Brailliant.

I know I can download a file specialized for refreshable braille readers on
the website, but I prefer to read away from my desktop.

Has anyone found a good way to use Bookshare with a refreshable braille
reader? Or am I missing some tips?

Any help would be enormously appreciated!  Thanks.

Re: Custom Voice Settings

2016-02-29 Thread Anders Holmberg
Hi!
Not from what i am aware of.
All voices use the same setting.
I agree though that this would be really nifty as i am reading much faster with 
the swedish voice than the english one.

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

Hi!
There is a program called Drive Pulse.
I think it can do what you want and for me it was quite accessible.
I don’t remember their site now but i can check it out for you if you don’t 
want to search on google yourself.

Heard the same before. I don't think the authors will die if the book is 
freely available. There are other ways of making money other than 
sharing beneficial knowledge.

something as long as it’s well researched and full of useful 
knowledge.


Also, as a person who has as one of his duties teaching Mac OS with
Voiceover to clients, I’m more than willing to grab this book and
encorporate some of its information into training sessions as
appropriate.  Also, even though $35 may seem like a lot of
money—indeed it certainly may be for many people—it’s not, in the
grand scheme of things, a bad price.  I could see a book like this
priced at or above $100, though I’ve come to expect reasonable
prices from Mosen Consulting, and would be shocked if they ever
tried to charge that much for this knowledge.

That’s all. Back to silently observing I go.

I don't know if you have an Apple Watch, but if you do, you can supplement
BlindSquare with it. It gives you tactile turning directions (2 vibrates
for right, 10 for left). It also vibrates in a different pattern when you
arrive at your destination. You have to use this in conjunction with Apple
Maps.

Molly Watts, a deafblind woman in the UK, writes a bit about this feature:

Good luck with your interview!

Re: Best Way to Read Bookshare Books on a Refershable Braille Reader?

2016-02-29 Thread Cristina Hartmann
Thanks, but I'm looking for a solution that would work for mobile as I
don't like to read books at my computer. (Bookshare's website offers a
download file specifically for refreshable braille reader, but as I
mentioned, I hate being stuck at my computer for leisure reading.)

Thanks for the idea of VoiceDream, though. I'll have to investigate that.

Get a copy of Screenflow.  You don't need to buy a license, trust me

it'll put a watermark in your video.  Now, I understand you don't want

Piezo probably could do this, but I think you'd have to do it in

Most of when I need to record my mac's audio, I just run the mac through

It'll be

Re: recording from the 'net

2016-02-29 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Screenflow is admittedly quite pricey, but it's definitely worth it, and it's 
fairly accessible for making a simple video with both your system audio 
including Voiceover, as well as your microphone of choice.

If you want to then edit the video, I'm nhot sure how accessible that would be. 
 Last I checked, it didn't look all that doable.  You might have to take the 
video into IMovie to do things like that, but as far as just simply recording 
goes?  That much is 100% doable.

I

believe, I could be wrong about this. The only difficult part about Hijack
is setting up a audio block, but with Vo it’s completely accessible, and
they do provide you with several templates to choose from, which also
includes Vo-IP apps like Skype. The Hijack Pro 2 is not really meant to 
work

on OS X version higher than 10.10 Yosemite so the compatibility might be
reduced than newer Hijack v3, but both versions could probably do the job.
It’s heck of a lot better than other cheep Skype recorders out there.

One that I recommend is Audio Hyjack. It doesn't record Skype but it

be used to record other audios comming out of Mac and it's accessible.
The

only downside is that it's paid, though it's worth a purchase once you

Re: recording from the 'net

2016-02-29 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

E.T,

Audio hijack definitely will do the job, but I'm sorry.  I haven't been able 
to figure out its new interface, so I probably won't be of much help there. 
I'd rather just be up front with you about that.  This said, unless they've 
changed things, which I don't think they have, in the past, it worked, so I 
see no reason why you couldn't get it to record things in the new version as 
you're needing to do.


Piezo is great, but I don't think it'll natively record your voiceover 
speech as well as record your mike at the same time.


Now, one thing you could! do to maybe ghet around that is to get an app 
through the app store, which by the way, is totally free, called "Line IN." 
What this app basically does is to let you monitor any input device through 
any output device.  So in other words, you could monitor your mike through 
your internal audio.  Then, once you've done that, where your mike is now 
audible, then, you'd load up Piezo.  You'd set the input to capture from all 
system audio.  Because of the fact that line in is feeding the audio being 
picked up by your mike back out your internal system sound, Piezo would not 
only now hear Voiceover and what not, but it also would hear your mike, 
thereby recording both.  That would be another way you could do it, if you 
want to use Piezo.

Get a copy of Screenflow.  You don't need to buy a license, trust me
with this.  Here's what'll happen.  After, I think it's like, 15 days,
it'll put a watermark in your video.  Now, I understand you don't want
to record video, but hear me out on this.  What's cool about screenflow
is, it has the ability of not only recording from whatever sound input
you want to use, say like, your microphone, but it also can record all
system audio, which would include Voiceover.

So, what you'd do is, being that once the trial runs out, all that
happens is that watermark, you're not concerned about that anyway, and
the audio would still be fine.  So, record the video.  Let it put a
watermark.  Then, just go back, open up that video created by Screenflow
in Quicktime, then export it out as an M4A.  there you go.  Mission
accomplished.

Piezo probably could do this, but I think you'd have to do it in
combination with something like Soundflower which could get a little
tricky.

Most of when I need to record my mac's audio, I just run the mac through
my mixer, so, I'm admittedly not the most up on doing it totally from
the software side of things.

Hopefully, this at least gives you a few ideas though.  Let me know if
you need any further clarification.  I'd be happy to help.

Hi,
The reactions work in that you can actually add them to a post accessibly 
but there seems to be no way of seeing what those emoji actually are, so if 
someone reacts on a post that you follow or have made yourself, it doesn’t look 
as if you can see what they’ve actually done.

  Hey all,

  I saw this article on Twitter about these new reaction emoji that 
Facebook has added to the like button. I hadn't heard anything about it, so I 
tried it. Indeed, it worked on my iPhone. I haven't tried it on the mac yet, as 
the article indicates that one would hover with the mouse over it. What are 
your experiences on iOS and OSX with this?

  Here's the article:

Re: Accessible Program to Tell Me What is taking up so much space

2016-02-29 Thread Scott Granados
Just use the du command.  It’s a unix command that is available under the hood 
in terminal.  If you need some examples of how to use it from your command 
prompt type “man du” with out the quotes.  This will display a man or manual 
page.  You can use this on the whole disk or sub directories and it’s very 
scriptable.

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Re: skype recorder

  The only thing is that the company no longer sells older version of Hijack I 
believe, I could be wrong about this. The only difficult part about Hijack is 
setting up a audio block, but with Vo it’s completely accessible, and they do 
provide you with several templates to choose from, which also includes Vo-IP 
apps like Skype. The Hijack Pro 2 is not really meant to work on OS X version 
higher than 10.10 Yosemite so the compatibility might be reduced than newer 
Hijack v3, but both versions could probably do the job. It’s heck of a lot 
better than other cheep Skype recorders out there.

The 

Best Way to Read Bookshare Books on a Refershable Braille Reader?

2016-02-29 Thread Cristina Hartmann
Hi all,

I'm pretty new to the refreshable braille reader and the associated
technology in general, so please bear with me. I'm probably goofing
something up.

I have a Humanware Brailliant Bi 40 and I have a Bookshare membership. I
want to read the books in braille as I am hearing impaired, so I hate
listening to books. I'm using the Bookshare Read2Go app, but I find the app
clunky and difficult to use on the braille display. For example, some
pretty basic commands, such as "scroll page down" doesn't work with the
Brailliant.

I know I can download a file specialized for refreshable braille readers on
the website, but I prefer to read away from my desktop.

Has anyone found a good way to use Bookshare with a refreshable braille
reader? Or am I missing some tips?

Any help would be enormously appreciated!  Thanks.

Best,
Cristina

Re: skype recorder

Hi everyone,

Thank you for your imput. Chris, this is the $29 I'm working with on
call recorder for Skype. Where can I get the highjack? That may be a
little easier for the recording of Skype conversations. I'm willing to
try both.

 One that I recommend is Audio Hyjack. It doesn't record Skype but it
 could

 be used to record other audios comming out of Mac and it's accessible.
 The

 only downside is that it's paid, though it's worth a purchase once you
 have it.

Re: recording from the 'net

2016-02-29 Thread E.T.

Chris,
   While looking for a Screenflow download (they offer a trial) I 
looked for Piezo.  Piezo and Audio Hijack also have trials. Would either 
of these do the job? Don't need anything fancy.

You know, I haven't totally looked into it as far as that goes.  I'll
tell ya a trick though that I know works.  It's a little involved, but
it does work.

Get a copy of Screenflow.  You don't need to buy a license, trust me
with this.  Here's what'll happen.  After, I think it's like, 15 days,
it'll put a watermark in your video.  Now, I understand you don't want
to record video, but hear me out on this.  What's cool about screenflow
is, it has the ability of not only recording from whatever sound input
you want to use, say like, your microphone, but it also can record all
system audio, which would include Voiceover.

So, what you'd do is, being that once the trial runs out, all that
happens is that watermark, you're not concerned about that anyway, and
the audio would still be fine.  So, record the video.  Let it put a
watermark.  Then, just go back, open up that video created by Screenflow
in Quicktime, then export it out as an M4A.  there you go.  Mission
accomplished.

Piezo probably could do this, but I think you'd have to do it in
combination with something like Soundflower which could get a little
tricky.

Most of when I need to record my mac's audio, I just run the mac through
my mixer, so, I'm admittedly not the most up on doing it totally from
the software side of things.

Hopefully, this at least gives you a few ideas though.  Let me know if
you need any further clarification.  I'd be happy to help.

Chris.

OK, I would try going to the mac app store and getting an app called
Piezo. Then, basically all you need to do is open it, then select your
input source as Safari, or whatever browser you're using, then in the
app, hit command+R to record, go over to the browser and start the
audio, and then Piezo will record it.  When done, command+Tab back to
Piezo, hit command+R to stop recording, then go find the file.  It'll be
in your music directory off your home directory.  You then  should,
under Music, see a folder called Piezo. Open it up, and the mp3 file
should be right there.

Well, I agree there is value in sharing knowledge but in capitalistic 
economies, value is usually given for value received. That's why educators and 
others who advance knowledge are paid for their services. Maybe you should 
explain what you mean by free knowledge because it seems as if it's your 
singular opinion.

Re: It's finally here, a comprehensive guide to Pages on the Mac with VoiceOver

2016-02-29 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello George,

Thank you for buying the book.

Below my signature are instructions for printing a batch of envelopes from 
Contacts.

Cheers,

Anne

Use Contacts to address envelopes.

• Put the selected card or cards into a new group;
• Press Command-P to bring up the Print dialogue;
• Navigate to the last visible item (VO-End) then go left twice. If you find 
Show Details button, click it;
• Use the Item Chooser to find the label Style;
• Go right to the pop up button;
• Pop it and select "Envelopes" if it is not already saying "Envelopes";
• Navigate right to Layout and select it;
• Navigate right past the other two tabs and click the button to the right of 
where it says "layout" again;
• Navigate down the menu, past Save as, delete and so on, until you find either 
International envelopes or North American Envelopes submenu;
• Select the appropriate envelope type;
• Navigate right to see the exact dimensions of the envelope, the position and 
size of the recipient's address panel (how far from top, how far from left and 
how big);
• Continue to navigate right, past the field telling you the number of 
addresses selected and the zoom slider and you'll find the position and size of 
the Sender address panel;
• Use the Item Chooser menu to locate the Label tab and select it;
• Navigate right to the checkbox "Print my address", clear this checkbox if you 
don't want your address to appear on the envelope;
• Navigate right to the address category pop up button and select the one you 
want to send from (Home, Work, etc.);
• Navigate right to the Addresses pop up button where you select the category 
of address for the recipient(s);
• To the right again, you select the print order (alphabetical or Postal Code);
• Continuing right, you can select to print your company name, the recipient's 
company name, both or neither;
• To the right again, if you check Country, all country names will be printed 
unless you check the checkbox Except my country, in which case only other 
country names will be printed;
• To the right again, you select font colour (default black);
• Now use the Item Chooser menu to select the Orientation tab;
• The first radio button to the right shows the printing to be perpendicular to 
the feed direction of the envelope, and the second radio button shows it to be 
parallel;
• You can now print your envelope.

Fortunately, Contacts remembers the settings for next time!

 Hi everyone, Anne Robertson is one of the most helpful people on this 
 list, particularly when it comes to using Pages. She clearly knows it 
 inside-out.
 Last year, I contacted Anne and asked if she and her husband Archie would 
 be willing to distill their Pages knowledge into an eBook. They agreed to 
 do this and Mosen Consulting has published it today. The book is called 
 "My Mac Pages" and contains over 40,000 words of essential info for making 
 the most of the application.
 You can learn more about the book here

 Thanks to Anne and Archie for doing this. It definitely meets a real need 
 out there.

Re: skype recorder

2016-02-29 Thread Seyoon Choi
The only thing is that the company no longer sells older version of Hijack I 
believe, I could be wrong about this. The only difficult part about Hijack is 
setting up a audio block, but with Vo it’s completely accessible, and they do 
provide you with several templates to choose from, which also includes Vo-IP 
apps like Skype. The Hijack Pro 2 is not really meant to work on OS X version 
higher than 10.10 Yosemite so the compatibility might be reduced than newer 
Hijack v3, but both versions could probably do the job. It’s heck of a lot 
better than other cheep Skype recorders out there.

Re: recording from the 'net

2016-02-29 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
You know, I haven't totally looked into it as far as that goes.  I'll tell 
ya a trick though that I know works.  It's a little involved, but it does 
work.


Get a copy of Screenflow.  You don't need to buy a license, trust me with 
this.  Here's what'll happen.  After, I think it's like, 15 days, it'll put 
a watermark in your video.  Now, I understand you don't want to record 
video, but hear me out on this.  What's cool about screenflow is, it has the 
ability of not only recording from whatever sound input you want to use, say 
like, your microphone, but it also can record all system audio, which would 
include Voiceover.


So, what you'd do is, being that once the trial runs out, all that happens 
is that watermark, you're not concerned about that anyway, and the audio 
would still be fine.  So, record the video.  Let it put a watermark.  Then, 
just go back, open up that video created by Screenflow in Quicktime, then 
export it out as an M4A.  there you go.  Mission accomplished.


Piezo probably could do this, but I think you'd have to do it in combination 
with something like Soundflower which could get a little tricky.


Most of when I need to record my mac's audio, I just run the mac through my 
mixer, so, I'm admittedly not the most up on doing it totally from the 
software side of things.


Hopefully, this at least gives you a few ideas though.  Let me know if you 
need any further clarification.  I'd be happy to help.


Chris.

I'm sorry, y'all, for being the one to whine this time. I'm getting to used to 
free books and all from NLS, lol. Gosh they spoil us. Anyways, I am considering 
saving up money for it. Is it on the iBooks store? If so, iTunes cards will 
take care of it. If not, that's okay. I'd just have to go a few steps more. But 
if I don't buy the book, I'll still try and figure out a few things at least,

Heard the same before. I don't think the authors will die if the book is freely

that the author could be using to do other things for themselves and

something as long as it’s well researched and full of useful knowledge.

Also, as a person who has as one of his duties teaching Mac OS with
Voiceover to clients, I’m more than willing to grab this book and
encorporate some of its information into training sessions as
appropriate.  Also, even though $35 may seem like a lot of
money—indeed it certainly may be for many people—it’s not, in the
grand scheme of things, a bad price.  I could see a book like this
priced at or above $100, though I’ve come to expect reasonable
prices from Mosen Consulting, and would be shocked if they ever
tried to charge that much for this knowledge.

That’s all. Back to silently observing I go.

DFTBA!

 Hi everyone, Anne Robertson is one of the most helpful

 Last year, I contacted Anne and asked if she and her husband
 Archie would be willing to distill their Pages knowledge
into an
 eBook. They agreed to do this and Mosen Consulting has
published
 it today. The book is called "My Mac Pages" and contains over
 40,000 words of essential info for making the most of the

 You can learn more about the book here

 Thanks to Anne and Archie for doing this. It definitely
meets a

Re: recording from the 'net

2016-02-29 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, I would try going to the mac app store and getting an app called Piezo. 
Then, basically all you need to do is open it, then select your input source 
as Safari, or whatever browser you're using, then in the app, hit command+R 
to record, go over to the browser and start the audio, and then Piezo will 
record it.  When done, command+Tab back to Piezo, hit command+R to stop 
recording, then go find the file.  It'll be in your music directory off your 
home directory.  You then  should, under Music, see a folder called Piezo. 
Open it up, and the mp3 file should be right there.

And why do you think they should go to the bother of sharing their heart one 
knowledge if there is no incentive for them to do so. I'm talking about earning 
a living here.
If you've ever had to earn your way in this world you'll know what I'm talking 
about. Innovation doesn't come cheap and neither does knowledge. If you want to 
enjoy the fruits of these things be prepared to compensate people for their 
time and effort. When and if you ever use your mind to create something of 
value, you will write fully expect to be compensated for your labors.
