Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V. VMWare Fusion
Wow, this is a good thread! The other thing that should be considered is the cost. I'd have to look it up, but I remember VMWare Fusion costing some money. I believe it was somewhere around fifty bucks or so in USD. I don't know if Bootcamp costs anything, being that its capabilities are built into OSX as far as I know. I could be basse-ackwards on this, but that's what I've heard. - Original Message - From: Eleanor burke eleanormarthabu...@gmail.com To: OS X iOS Accessibility mac-access@mac-access.net Sent: Sunday, April 26, 2015 23:51 Subject: Re: [Mac-access]: Bootcamp V.

I like the idea of having VMWare, so I can flick between different operating systems. However, precisely please what are the advantages of running it in Bootcamp as opposed to a virtual machine? If I ran it as a Virtual Machine, what disadvantages would I notice? For example, would there be any kind of delay when using a Windows screen-reader? My other question relates to installing Windows. I've read a lot, and there does not seem to be an easy way described with complete accuracy as to how to install Windows without vision. This may seem like a strange question, but if I booked an appointment at an Apple store to get some sighted help, is that good etiquette? Are they likely to say no because I need to install Windows?

Laurel, I hear that Apple uses LibLouis, but I don't know the particulars.

Do any of you happen to know how Apple's braille tables that are used with Voiceover are written? I'm trying to research this a bit for a project I am working on, but I am struggling to find good resources. Is Apple basing their braille tables off of a framework, something like Duxberry Braille and that's how they are getting their braille tables? Or are they using a particular computer coding language to write their tables? If someone could point me in the write direction for me to learn a bit more than I already know, I would appreciate it. For what it's worth, I do know how to write a braille translation table, I've done it for several braille codes in several different languages, so I am somewhat familiar with how they can be built or written.

[Mac-access]: iTunes won't play consecutive tracks.
Hello all, Every now and then, my iTunes seems to decide that it won't play successive tracks. I'll start playing track 1 of an album, but then it stops as if that were the end of the album when I know good and well that it isn't. Would you know how to rectify this?

Re: [Mac-access]: Major irritation, and Baffling Wifi Trouble
Chris and all, Wow! Her wifi card must be eighty-sixed, as I've had no such issues with mine. For those who don't know, I've got a mid 2010 Macbook. it's neither an Air nor a Pro. It's literally one of the old Mac Books. The only issue with wireless connectivity has been with my old iPhone Five, but that's not what this thread is all about.

Actually, I'm writing this message on her behalf in hopes that we can figure this out. I told her that I fear, she might have a shot wifi adapter, but God only knows! So, here's the situation. My mother went about a month ago at the beginning of December, to the Verizon store, and activated service with an IPad Air... Not the newer Air, just the older first generation. Nice unit, by the way. I bought a wifi only model about half a week later, if that tells you all how jealous I was. LOL! Anyway, one thing about my mother that you have to understand is, first off, she's not computer savvy at all. She can do e-mail, and maybe incredibly basic internet browsing which mainly consists of shopping on Amazon if needed, shopping on the Keurig web site, then doing her online banking. She can do more than that if she really puts her mind to it, but it's extremely rare. It literally took almost 3 years to convince her to get a newer IPad. She jumped from a wifi only first generation up to what she now has. One thing about my mom, too is, she never ever runs software updates. I don't care if it's a major update, or not, she simply refuses. Every time that an update comes out which addresses some of the issues she's having, she tells me she's not going to do it, as quote unquote, it'll screw up her system. A lot of times, I wind up having to do the updates when she is at work and I'm at home alone, just because otherwise, she'll find out and throw her usual tantrom about why she doesn't want me doing anything. I could go on to tell you about how she didn't believe a word I said when I told her Verizon won't take a 1st gen IPad, it's so old, never mind the fact that it's not on their network, and is wifi only. Never mind that she didn't believe me when I told her you can't sync a backup of I O S 4 to an I O S 8 device. Finally the lady at the Verizon store had to basically set her straight since my mom wouldn't listen to a darn thing I said. Anyway, my point is, God knows what she's done, if anything to cause this. It's really hard to say. So, she gets her IPad, and she and I go back and forth, forth and back, about how for her needs, Yosemite would be a good free update, and would insure that things worked optymally with her new IPad. It took me almost 4 nights to finally convince her. Finally, she told me to do it, and run the update. So, I get it updated for her, and all is working flawlessly. I turned on automatic updates, so that when one came out, it would notify her. I figured that might make her feel a bit more confident to update things if she sees it pop up on her screen, as then she doesn't have to take her stupid little son's word for things. Pardon my insult to myself. LOL! So, finally, about half a week ago, she comes practically screaming! her head off at me from down stairs, Chris, what the hell did you do to my mac! I was like, um... for one, you mind being a bit more polite? Secondly, I didn't do anything... Why? She starts barking about how it doesn't work. I ran an update and now it's gonna crash, she knows it, as she's seeing early signs of it. When I asked her to describe to me the symptoms, she told me her wifi isn't working. So, I'm going, mehh, this'll be an easy one! Let me go down and show her how to get the blasted thing back online. Well, that went over real! well, as I wound up eating crow. Here I am saying this is an easy fix, well, it's not. I've been trying to figure this out for quite some time. Basically, her wifi is dropping offline literally every 10 or so seconds. The icon up in the menu extras keeps saying no signal. This is very very strange, as the very little it does connect, it has 4 of 4 bars. I went online and looked, only to find that for Yosemite, Apple somewhat recently released an update which fixed wifi issues for some users. I'm not totally sure what the specifics are of this, or if my mother was one of the effected people, but I made her aware of this, and told her, this is why you need to run updates when prompted. She still yelled at me, telling me I didn't know jack crap, and to leave her quote unquote, broken mac mini alone. So, I dropped it until last night. Well, last night, she gets off work, in an absolutely fowel mood, and tells me, Fix my mac, and do it now! I can't get online, and I need

It took me almost 4 nights to finally convince her. Finally, she told me to do it, and run the update. So, I get it updated for her, and all is working flawlessly. I turned on automatic updates, so that when one came out, it would notify her. I figured that might make her feel a bit more confident to update things if she sees it pop up on her screen, as then she doesn't have to take her stupid little son's word for things. Pardon my insult to myself. LOL! So, finally, about half a week ago, she comes practically screaming! her head off at me from down stairs, Chris, what the hell did you do to my mac! I was like, um... for one, you mind being a bit more polite? Secondly, I didn't do anything... Why? She starts barking about how it doesn't work. I ran an update and now it's gonna crash, she knows it, as she's seeing early signs of it. When I asked her to describe to me the symptoms, she told me her wifi isn't working. So, I'm going, mehh, this'll be an easy one! Let me go down and show her how to get the blasted thing back online. Well, that went over real! well, as I wound up eating crow. Here I am saying this is an easy fix, well, it's not. I've been trying to figure this out for quite some time. Basically, her wifi is dropping offline literally every 10 or so seconds. The icon up in the menu extras keeps saying no signal. This is very very strange, as the very little it does connect, it has 4 of 4 bars. I went online and looked, only to find that for Yosemite, Apple somewhat recently released an update which fixed wifi issues for some users. I'm not totally sure what the specifics are of this, or if my mother was one of the effected people, but I made her aware of this, and told her, this is why you need to run updates when prompted. She still yelled at me, telling me I didn't know jack crap, and to leave her quote unquote, broken mac mini alone. So, I dropped it until last night. Well, last night, she gets off work, in an absolutely fowel mood, and tells me, Fix my mac, and do it now! I can't get online, and I need
Re: [Mac-access]: Major irritation, and Baffling Wifi Trouble
Chris and all, Wow! Her wifi card must be eighty-sixed, as I've had no such issues with mine. For those who don't know, I've got a mid 2010 Macbook. it's neither an Air nor a Pro. It's literally one of the old Mac Books. The only issue with wireless connectivity has been with my old iPhone Five, but that's not what this thread is all about.

Actually, I'm writing this message on her behalf in hopes that we can figure this out. I told her that I fear, she might have a shot wifi adapter, but God only knows! So, here's the situation. My mother went about a month ago at the beginning of December, to the Verizon store, and activated service with an IPad Air... Not the newer Air, just the older first generation. Nice unit, by the way. I bought a wifi only model about half a week later, if that tells you all how jealous I was. LOL! Anyway, one thing about my mother that you have to understand is, first off, she's not computer savvy at all. She can do e-mail, and maybe incredibly basic internet browsing which mainly consists of shopping on Amazon if needed, shopping on the Keurig web site, then doing her online banking. She can do more than that if she really puts her mind to it, but it's extremely rare. It literally took almost 3 years to convince her to get a newer IPad. She jumped from a wifi only first generation up to what she now has. One thing about my mom, too is, she never ever runs software updates. I don't care if it's a major update, or not, she simply refuses. Every time that an update comes out which addresses some of the issues she's having, she tells me she's not going to do it, as quote unquote, it'll screw up her system. A lot of times, I wind up having to do the updates when she is at work and I'm at home alone, just because otherwise, she'll find out and throw her usual tantrom about why she doesn't want me doing anything. I could go on to tell you about how she didn't believe a word I said when I told her Verizon won't take a 1st gen IPad, it's so old, never mind the fact that it's not on their network, and is wifi only. Never mind that she didn't believe me when I told her you can't sync a backup of I O S 4 to an I O S 8 device. Finally the lady at the Verizon store had to basically set her straight since my mom wouldn't listen to a darn thing I said. Anyway, my point is, God knows what she's done, if anything to cause this.

Pardon my insult to myself. LOL! So, finally, about half a week ago, she comes practically screaming! her head off at me from down stairs, Chris, what the hell did you do to my mac! I was like, um... for one, you mind being a bit more polite? Secondly, I didn't do anything... Why? She starts barking about how it doesn't work. I ran an update and now it's gonna crash, she knows it, as she's seeing early signs of it. When I asked her to describe to me the symptoms, she told me her wifi isn't working. So, I'm going, mehh, this'll be an easy one! Let me go down and show her how to get the blasted thing back online. Well, that went over real! well, as I wound up eating crow. Here I am saying this is an easy fix, well, it's not. I've been trying to figure this out for quite some time. Basically, her wifi is dropping offline literally every 10 or so seconds. The icon up in the menu extras keeps saying no signal. This is very very strange, as the very little it does connect, it has 4 of 4 bars. I went online and looked, only to find that for Yosemite, Apple somewhat recently released an update which fixed wifi issues for some users. I'm not totally sure what the specifics are of this, or if my mother was one of the effected people, but I made her aware of this, and told her, this is why you need to run updates when prompted. She still yelled at me, telling me I didn't know jack crap, and to leave her quote unquote, broken mac mini alone. So, I dropped it until last night. Well, last night, she gets off work, in an absolutely fowel mood, and tells me, Fix my mac, and do it now! I can't get online, and I need

[Mac-access]: Very perplexed about MS Word and OSX
Hello all, A friend of mine had downloaded Microsoft Word for OSX. he thought that he had read somewhere that MS had released an accessible version for the Mac. Office has been inaccessible on the Mac for some time now, so he was looking forward to trying it out. What's the status on this? I saw on AppleVis an article from July of this year stating that it still wasn't fixed. I understand that he uses Pages. It works flawlessly. But why should we not try to get to the bottom of this issue with Office itself? Belated merry Christmas, Ben --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Re: [Mac-access]: Confused about podcasts on iPhone 5S
Paul, Aleeha and all, Apple redid how podcasts are dealt with, but I really, really, really recommend that you check out Downcast for iOS. Whilst I was using it on my old iPhone Five, I had more than three hundred podcasts sinked with iCloud. Then I used Downcast for OSX, and it kept my settings etcetera. I do admit that it was sort of nice that podcasts were sinked with the music app on the older iOS devices, but I'm telling you that Downcast is a better solution, even though the OSX iteration is a wee bit deer!

A bug which I had thought was a setting!
Hello List, I had thought that this bug was a setting, but upon absolutely scouring the Voiceover utility and Mavericks' System Preferences, I'm discovering that it's a very cool, but very annoying bug. Before I go any further, I'm using OSX 10.9.3 Mavericks on a Mid 2010 White Polycarbon stock Macbook. When I'm typing text, be it in Text Edit, iWorks Pages, Male, Safari, OSX dialog boxes, etc., with key echo set to words, it speaks the text which I've just typed even though I have not pressed the spacebar or a punctuation mark which would invoke the key echo. There's about a one second to a second and a half delay between the key press and VO speaking, and when I'm typing words, numbers, letters and numbers or whatever. It does not matter where in the OS I am or with which voice I'm using. I deal frequently with foreign languages, and it does it with those voices, in those keyboard layouts and in those languages. it doesn't matter whether it's Alex, Fiona, Ava, Allison, Aleksandros, Melina, Tingting or what. It does it everywhere. If I'm typing the word hello for example, if I pause after typing h, VO will say h. After the e, it'll say he. After both l's, it'll say h ell. After the o, it'll say hello. The same is true for sets of numbers. I type a 5 and pause, and it says 5. Type a 0 thereafter, it'll say 50. I'm not normally a thorough person, and I don't prefer to be such for various quirky reasons. I have literally looked through every tab and option in the Voiceover utility and OSX's System Preferences. The only thing I haven't done is to read the bloomin' VO user's guide. This only happens when the key echo is set to words under VO+v. A friend of mine who is thrice as thorough as I has also scoured the system prefs and VO utility, and he's come up empty too! If there are any Apple developers up here with access to the developers' bug reporter, please submit this as a bug to Apple on my behalf. It's something I've gotten used to and kind a like in a strange way, but it needs to be rectified so that blind and VI businessmen don't get outed when they type financial or other confidential data into their Macs.

Does the internet work for you outside of YoruFukurou? Second of all, when's the last time you checked for updates to the app? I wonder if either something in your account broke or maybe it's having issues communicating back and forth with Twitter's API? I don't necessarily mean your API calls. I'm talking more generally about the API in a whole which allows YoruFukurou or any other twitter client to connect to their servers. The other thing too you may wanna try, Jeff, is to completely remove all broken Twitter accounts from YoruFukurou's preferences, then re-add them, and see if that helps. Also, are you sure you're on your timeline tab? Open up the app, and hit command+num row 1. This will reset your view, and confirm beyond a doubt that you're truely on your timeline. Also, if you have multiple accounts set up, try command up and command down arrows I think it is, to move through the different accounts. See if all your accounts in there are broken and are consisting of this unusual behavior.

I did get the message that I was rate limited once or twice, but that never even happens now. I went into preferences and made sure the refresh was set to a sensible time in case that was truly the problem. So the problem is that I can’t figure out how to completely remove Yorufukurou and reinstall it. Whenver I remove it and reinstall, the same situation occurs. I have looked for its associated caches/preferences and it doesn’t seem to have any that I can find. I am using the App Store version.

Braille layouts beyond the pail of OSX and VoiceoveR?
Hello all, The recent thread regarding the sad demise of the LouisBraille translator for OSX has sparked a question which I've had since my arrival in the world of OSX in June of 2011. Is it possible under Mavericks or any release of OSX to somehow install Braille tables/layouts which are not directly supported by Voiceover and the OS? For example, I remember my tired glee a couple years ago when I discovered that one could modify the .jbt files within Jaws for Windows, allowing the screen reader to access other languages whose character sets were previously out of reach. It was quite tedious, but my eyes were opened when my Braille display cranked out crisp Arabic letters and vowel diacritics! Is that sort of thing possible in OSX? I admire how they sneakily added Braille support for loads of Indic languages into the Hindi Braille table, such as Tamil, Gujarati and Bengali. Could we do that with Burmese and Khmmer in the Thai table for instance?

Mail isn't saying unread.
Hey All, I’m really liking OSX Mavericks. Voiceover seems to be ever so subtly snappier. I’m having a very slight issue in mail, which is confirmation of what Christopher Gilland has already said. When I’m in the new messages area of Mail, I’ll locate a message to determine whether or not I want to read it. Formerly, Voiceover would say, “Unread, Joey Bird; Why do I like birds?” The punctuation is not reflexive of what actually happens. I just used it to create pauses in speech. Now, in Mavericks, that flag doesn’t appear, and Voiceover reads everything except the read/unread status of the message. Is there a way to reenable that flag?

Re: Mail isn't saying unread.
Note to all you guys, I am so sorry for all the bounced messages from incorrect accounts. I have multiple email addresses, so I often am sitting on other accounts. I’m much more vigilant about this now, and it shouldn’t happen again from here on out. I agree that it’s not a great solution on another note, but it does indeed work. Man, Persistent Pete don’t take no for an answer, does he? :) ;) LOL!

Re: Tickers: Enough to drive, me, intoxicated!
After being alerted to this problem, I took a look. This is definitely a big bug with a stinger and a nasty bite.

Re: Question about playing music specifically on the IPad
Chris and all, Even though my music is best accessed via the Albums tab, my experience in the artists tab is equal to yours. I only use it if I want to play all the music by X artist in a row. For example, if I have two albums by Genesis, I would start with Face Value, and I'd let it play that album entirely. Then it would go to Invisible Touch as it did with your Bishops' stuff, and it would play that album entirely. I hope that that has added to the discussion. Ben J.

It's only seeming to happen with the IPad, so beware of that. Anyway, today was really the first time I've done much with playing music on my IPad from the built in Music app. I'm totally loving it! The only thing that I have really as a question is, I have about 4 albums by a really great southern gospel group called The Bishops. If you've never heard their stuff, I'd really really really! highly recommend them! Start with an album called Stories. I think it's their best one yet. Anyway, So I noticed that when I double tapped on the artists tab, I was presented with all my artists: Alan Jackson, Avalon, the Bishops, etc. etc. I double tapped on The Bishops, at which point, I saw that each album is in its own heading. I absolutely love! that approach, as I can use my rotor in headings navigation and flick quickly album by album. That is incredible! The problem however is, I double tapped on the first track from the first album listed by the Bishops. It started playing, and away I went! The problem is, that disc finished . I was hoping that it would just stop, and that would be the end of it. Unfortunately, what it actually did, unlike on my IPhone, is it finished, but then it immediately went down to the next album in the list by them, and kept playing. It's in other words, like it's wanting to play all the albums and all the tracks from that artists starting from where I double tap. Being that there were more albums below the one I initially played, it continued on to those albums. I would have wanted it to just play that first album, but then instead of continuing on to the second album, I wanted it to just stop after that album was done. Is that where I need to be using the albums tab at the bottom instead of the artists tab? Sorry, I'm just ever ever so slightly confused.

Re: Backing Up iPhone to 2 Different Computers
To my knowledge, you can only backup to one computer. Therefore, you need to choose whether to back your phone up to your MacBook air or two other computer. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. Ben J.

Although I haven’t gave much of an opportunity to play around with VoiceOver yet, from the visual perspective iOS7.02 is gorgeous. I love the way that applications can now interact, and the gestures which were there in iOS6 have been improved upon. Of course, Apple’s errors which only came
