Re: [Mac-access]: Mail with Yosemite

2014-12-08 Thread Fred Smith


After much frustration with the vo j command, I had the hard disk on my 
macbok air erased, followed by a clean install of Yosemite, and now the 
command works perfectly, at least in Mail and the Finder. So, if anyone 
is having the same problem, it's worth persevering -- it can work in 
Yosemite.

I'm just setting up a new macbook air, running Yosemite, and I've struck a 
problem with mail. I prefer to use classic view, and on my old machine, running 
Mountain Lion, I use the jump command (VO j) as a quick way to jump between the 
mailboxes list and the messages table. But with the new machine, this no longer 
works, and VO j does nothing at all. As far as I can tell, all the mail 
settings and Voiceover settings are the same on both machines. Has the VO j 
command been removed, is this a bug, or have I just missed a vital setting? Any 
suggestions welcome.

PS: The problem isn't confined to mail -- though that's the biggest issue for 
me. On the new machine, the jump command isn't working in the finder either.

Thanks,
Fred

 Hello Judy,
 
 My first thought would be to make sure your Mac has the latest ICA 
 compliant driver for your scanner model installed. If I remember 
 correctly, FineReader Express used TWAIN scanner drivers while FineReader 
 Pro uses ICA drivers. You can probably get the latest driver by either 
 running software update on the Mac or by going to HP’s website and 
 checking the available drivers for your scanner model. You might also 
 look at Apple’s website listing compatible printers/scanners. The US 
 version of that page can be found here:
 http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201465
 
 If that does not resolve your issue, can you provide the following 
 information?
 1. What model is your HP scanner?
 2. What version of MacOS are you running?
 3. How is your scanner communicating with your Mac? (USB, Wi-Fi, etc)
 4. What is your FineReader version?
 5. What is the version of your installed HP scanner driver?
 
 HTH,
 Bryan

Re: [Mac-access]: Mail with Yosemite

2014-12-08 Thread Bryan Jones
Clean installs of 10.10.1 on 2 different Macs here have yielded no love with 
VO+J in either Finder or Mail in Classic view. I wonder what might be different 
between our systems.

Interestingly, it seems to be the sidebar VO+J has an aversion to. If I show 
the path bar in Finder, VO+J will reliably hop back and forth between the list 
of applications and the path bar, and if I have the preview pane showing in 
Mail’s classic view, VO+J will gladly hop between the message list and the 
preview pane; however, if the path bar and preview pane are hidden, VO+J will 
jump from the sidebar to the file list or message list but will not hop back.

[Mac-access]: Getting back a Login Startup Application

2014-12-08 Thread Martin G. McCormick
I accidentally removed an application name from the startup
list. It is the Speech Synthesis Server which surprisingly does
nothing bad to voiceover but kills the time announcements and other
non-voiceover text-to-speech. I did find the very long path and
file name I need to put back but I can't seem to make it happen.

I go to system preferences and then users and login
options and find the login options containing the remaining
startup items plus the add startup application button. After pressing
that button, I get several file tree viewing options and a
search field plus the default button to add the application. 
Here is where the confusion happens. I have the path
ending with the application's name in the clipboard buffer so I
dump it in to the search field. A new menu opens up that has two
rows. The top row is called file names and the bottom row is
named matches and the path and application name appear to the
right of that header.
After closing the menu, the default button is greyed out
so you can't add the application name.
To be clear, I did not delete the application, only it's
name in the list of applications that automatically start up
when one logs in to this account.

Thanks for any ideas or explanations that blow the fog away.

[Mac-access]: Answering phone calls on a mac

2014-12-08 Thread Christopher Hallsworth

Hi all,
For the first time I answered a call on my mac since upgrading to 
Yosemite and iOS 8 on both iPhone and iPad, needed to confirm that I 
really wanted to add a recipient to my online bank account, they call it 
phone authentication, anyway they got me to enter four digits correctly, 
this I was able to do all with no difficulties. FaceTime opened on my 
mac with the incoming call being displayed. So pressed return to accept. 
Then, amazingly, could use the number row of keys to answer the voice 
prompts and to enter the four digits, sound quality was amazing as well.

[Mac-access]: disabling accented characters on iPhone data entry

2014-12-08 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello, 
I have an iPhone 5S running the latest level of IOS 8. I use the data entry 
method where you slide your finger over the virtual keyboard until you find the 
desired character and then lift your finger to enter that character. 

As I use my finger rather than a stylus I am rather slow finding the desired 
character and often wait for the phonetic version e.g. Victor for V or Bravo 
for B to confirm that I am entering the correct character. Alas this technique 
often triggers the option to select and enter accented versions of the desired 
character which I have trouble escaping from. 

Is there any way to disable the option to enter accented character mode, or if 
not what is the correct way to escape from this mode and revert to normal 
characters? 

Many thanks for any tips. 
Best regards…..

Paul Hopewell

Re: [Mac-access]: Answering phone calls on a mac

2014-12-08 Thread Ann Byrne

How do I tell the Mac to answer phone calls???

Hi all,
For the first time I answered a call on my mac since upgrading to 
Yosemite and iOS 8 on both iPhone and iPad, needed to confirm that I 
really wanted to add a recipient to my online bank account, they 
call it phone authentication, anyway they got me to enter four 
digits correctly, this I was able to do all with no difficulties. 
FaceTime opened on my mac with the incoming call being displayed. So 
pressed return to accept. Then, amazingly, could use the number row 
of keys to answer the voice prompts and to enter the four digits, 
sound quality was amazing as well.

It should just  happen with hand off. Now, I am aware that it is broken for 
some, me included and I did get it set up right, how ever I cannot get this to 
work.

[Mac-access]: invert colors on Yosemite

Re: [Mac-access]: invert colors on Yosemite

2014-12-08 Thread Colin Matthews
Hi!
I hope this still works in Yosemite!
1, go to system pref's and select keyboard.
2, select the shortcuts tab.
3, select the accessibility category in the table.
4, in the table of key strokes find invert colours and interact with it until 
you hear VO say editing text, then press the key combination you wish to use 
[making sure that key stroke is not used for anything else]
and VO should say selection replaced, arrow left and back to see if your 
selection is now there and if so just quit Pref's and off you go!
The default key stroke to invert colours is the same as one of the hotspot 
options VO+command+8 [describes item under hotspot 8]
I've successfully changed that to option+command+0 [in my case]
And now pressing those keys change from white on black to black on white!
I hope this is still the case and can be changed.
Colin.

[Mac-access]: Help setting up mac-Access mail account

2014-12-08 Thread Eric Caron
Hi folks,

I’m having trouble setting up Mac-Accesss  in mail on my new iPad.

I suspect i’m messing up the out going and in coming server names.

Can someone tell me exactly what to place in those fields?

I’m looking at my mac to get the info but I don’t seem to be able to get it 
right.  also my account was set up several years ago so perhaps I need updated 
info now that mac-Access has been updated.
