It was interesting, anda little peculiar. My training ws held in the middle of the store, with all the noise and bustle of a Friday afternoon. I got familiarized a little more with the visual layout of the screens, the menu bar, and some of the voiceover utility. As part of this program, I receive access to a special page of tutorials, and other tools. Gee, I have a long way to go. So, I was exploring this page, and came across a very bsic question, the answer to which will probably enable me to move along independently and set goals for my next training session. On this page, are a number of links, headers, levels, etc. clicking on links (using VO/spacebar, what then appears are text elements that say clickable. Probably very simple, but nothing I do brings the clickable text elements to life. Tia for any help with this.

RE: A Question Regarding MS Office for Mac
Office on the Mac is fairly inexpensive when compared to the PC version. Mail won't do any of that stuff. Apple doesn't want to license the full tech that would be required to completely integrate with Exchange. It would be nice if they did, since Exchange isn't going away for a very very long time. It's great that you can read basic e-mail and look at your Exchange calendar with Mail or on an iPad/iPhone, but that isn't enough. Exchange is a full personal information management system that automatically syncs, over the air, between all of your devices. I can start Outlook on any of my computers, or grab a phone or PDA, and I'm looking at all of my critical work info. I don't sync it. Its just there, on all of them, when I need it. That sort of tech is mandatory unless you have your own personal secretary. So, it will be good to have Office as an alternative to Mail. Would be nice if Apple had something like Exchange that could even be used as an alternative, but they don't. If you don't use Exchange, you most likely wouldn't see the point to these features or care. That's alright. I can't tell you how much it increases my efficiency, and helps me earn more money with less time. Paying a silly $100 - $200 fee is nothing, as it will make that back easily.

RE: A Question Regarding MS Office for Mac
Yes, but there are actually two interfaces. There is a rich client and a simple client. The rich client is a powerful web app, but depends on Windows features in order to work. The simple client will work on the Mac, but, since it's targetted at cell phones, it lacks a lot of features, including setting mail rules.

RE: A Question Regarding MS Office for Mac
Olivia Yes from what your saying, mail me does sound very much like MS exchange. Exchange is a mail / messaging / calendaring server. Outlook for mac is men to allow you to sync with exchange as outlook on a pc / windows machine will. But mac mail in OSX10.6 will also sync with an exchange server. It just allows for real time updating of email and calendaring / tasks etc. as well as a lot of other things to boot.

Re: Focus Blue display 40
Hi, He was talking about the Mac. :) It's a good chance that the Mac does not support that particular display yet, as I believe it has just recently been released. An update to the operating system most likely has to be released before it will be included, and the driver has to be written for it to work. And permissions have to be obtained, blah blah blah.

As part of this program, I receive access to a special page of tutorials, and other tools. Gee, I have a long way to go.

I have a Gmail account, and know from reading, that you may set up Gmail to work in apple mail using either pop or imap, I just wondering, does it make a difference in terms of voice over, whether I use pop or imap? I don't think it does, Kerie. While I use IMAP with my Gmail account, I have never heard anything to the effect that POP wouldn't work. Next, are the mail boxes which can be created in apple mail meant to be used as substitutes for folders like those which can be created in outlook using windows, say for lists? And if I subscribed to many lists, can I, and do I, need to create rules so the messages from lists go to the mail boxes, and don just go to my inbox? Mail lets you create mailboxes into which you can organize materials. You can create rules to automatically have specific messages placed in specific mailboxes or, alternatively, you can manually move them to these mailboxes from the inbox. Next, when it comes to instant messaging, can aidium connect to windows live, or am I best installing windows live for Mac, which I believe, correct me if I wrong, is available from Microsoft? This was the question I couldn't answer. And lastly, for now, is there a way to find out the title of a window, like in jaws for windows? Kerie, using the Voice Over keys (Command Option) along with F2 tells you the title of the window that you are currently in. This command works very well in the Mail program. I hope you all won mind me asking what could be considered by some as silly questions, but like I say, I very new to apple and voice over, so just thought someone might give me some advice.

RE: A Question Regarding MS Office for Mac
Well, sort of. Mobile Me is kind of the light version of that sort of thing. Mobile Me can sync your calendar, but you can't access the calendars of other people in your org. Mobile Me has no server-side filtering of e-mail. This means that it can't sort messages in to folders based on e-mail listss, sender, etc. It is totally dependent on the client to do that. Maybe you're reading e-mail on your iPhone, but your desktop is off, so then everything will fill up your in-box. Mobile Me doesn't do forms. And, most importantly, Mobile Me only works with Apple stuff. My Windows machines and non-Apple devices could get to its imap e-mail box, but can't use most anything else. I like Apple stuff, but my whole computing universe isn't Apple.

IPod Nano sync problem
hay all, well I have tried absolutely everything to solve this and its still not fixing so hoping you all might be able to shead some light on it. I am using a fifth gen IPod Nano under windows 7. Every time I sync the device, even if it is only an update of say, a 20 mb podcast, the sync will take literally 45 minutes to complete, mostly it says its generating voice over messages...but there is only one to generate! I am using a 2.4 ghz I5 with 4gb of ram, there is no way that it should take this long. I have reset the IPod, reinstalled ITunes, updated IPod firmware, done everything to fix this difficulty and it has done nothing. Can anyone please suggest something? thanks very much MJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

as it stands, I don't think braille refreshable displays will work currently with the iPad.

Re: booting taking forever?
Hi. You can try the following: Restart your RAM by holding down option, command and the characters p and r while the machine is booting up. you have to hold down these 4 keys just after you've heard the Apple chime sound, and keep holding the keys down until the sound has been repeeded 3 or 4 times. You could also try to insert your Mac OSX install disc, boot up from it and choose to repair your harddrive using disc utilities. An other great idea is to close all your running wegits if you don't use them. You can do it by doing the following: 1: Press f12 or fn f12 to bring up the dash board. 2: Bring up the window chooser by pressing Vo f2 twice, just so you'll know how many running wegits you have. 3: Choose one of the wegits you wanna close, and press Vo command f2 to close the wegit. Keep press Vo command f2, and confirm by hitting the return key to close the selected wegit, until you've closed all the wegits. I hope this will speed your computer up a bit.

Re: Itunes hanging and crashing after update
Standard Mac repair answer - did you try repairing permissions, if so you might want to delete your iTunes-related preferences. CB Mark BurningHawk Baxter wrote: Did not know that--thanks! When I force-quit it the third or fourth time, I choose relaunch, and it asked me for the library. There was no better choice, so I stuck with Itune library. After a few more quits and relaunches, it now works, although a problem report was generated and sent to apple just now when I quit Itunes; apparently it failed to shut down correctly. I just now tried to launch it from Dock again, and it hung and then shut down. I had it working, and now it's back to crashing.

Re: parelells a complete waist of my time
As you discovered VMWare is pretty much the only accessible virtualization package on the mac. Sun's VirtualBox doesn't have an accessible GUI but it does have a command line interface, so it can still be used that way. As far as speed and performance goes, Windows beats on the hard drive a good bit so it can take a while to un-sludge after starting up, especially if your Mac is trying to access the drive at the same time. Also need to check how much RAM you have left. My MacBook has 3GB so if I run 1.5GB for VMWare that only leaves 1.5GB for the Mac. If the Mac runs out it starts doing 'virtual memory' which swaps older chunks of RAM to the hard drive which is orders of magnitude slower than real RAM. So, if your Windows virtual machine pounds the hard drive and you trigger some virtual memory swapping to hard drive you're in for a world of hurt. You might actually be faster with that 512MB virtual machine and not triggering memory swapping. CB Sarah Alawami wrote: Hello.

Re: iPad and bluetooth refreshable braille
Hi sean, your student is going to be brailleless for a little while longer yet. When braille arrives in IPhone OS4, there's not a guarantee that it's going to be as functional as say, braille on the mac, although it will almost sertainly support bluetooth which mac OS didn't support until snowleopard. If it were me, my first choice of display would be a braille connect, followed closely by the alva bc640. The braille connect is far and away the better of the two displays imho, but braille displays are a matter of strong personal preference. What feels good in one man's hand doesn't necessarily feel good in another's. I suggest you let your student hold and use both of these displays and pick the one that feels good in his hand. Otherwise, you might buy something he's not comfortable with and it will go into a closet.

Re: test driving an iphone?
Dunno if this was mentioned in the reviews but the first time a friend and I tried a 3gs iPhone was at the ATT store and it was a bit hard to hear from the built-in speaker. Lots of ambient noise in some stores. You might want to bring your favorite headphones along to really be able to tell what's going on. CB Karen Lewellen wrote: Wow Esther, Even better and I thank you. I suspect based on my short phone chat with the cell phone store I will visit that they are already a tad aware of voiceover and the iphone. the provider originally given rights to carry the phone in the Toronto area got some very bad nasty press when one of their reps told a customer that voiceover did not even exist let alone being apart of the iphone. Your detailed description plus the combination of links here and in Scott's note lets me really get a feel for the phone. Also explains why the term gestures is used. finger flicks indeed. Should stop in there early part of next week and report. I asked the ipad question because an uninformed person from another list insisted that a keypad was required to use it at all...which made little sense. Thanks all around, Karen On Sat, 24 Apr 2010, Esther wrote: Hi Karen, I concur with Scott's suggestions. Before you go to the store to check out the iPhone, review the section on VoiceOver gestures in the iPhone User's Guide: http://help.apple.com/iphone/voiceover/en/ The direct link to the section on VoiceOver is: http://help.apple.com/iphone/3/voiceover/en/iphddd0db38.html VoiceOver gets turned on and off in Settings General Accessibility VoiceOver. I assume the store will have to turn this on for you. Once you're on that screen, you can do a two finger flick up to have VoiceOver read out the screen contents. If you want to stop it, tap with two fingers on the screen. Then you can also navigate to the next item and hear it announced by flicking right with one finger, or listen to the previous item by flicking left with one finger through the page. You'll probably want to change the speaking rate, which is done with a slider near the bottom of the VoiceOver screen. If you used a two finger flick to read through to the end of the page, flick left with one finger to get to the slider, or simply move your finger up from the bottom of the screen to touch it. Then, flick up (to increase) or down (to decrease) to adjust speaking rate. The Settings General Accessibility VoiceOver screen also has a Practice VoiceOver Gestures area that works like keyboard practice mode: once you activate it (by double tapping) VoiceOver will announce the gestures it thinks you made and the associated action (e.g., Flick right; move to next item). Double tap on the Done button at the top right of the screen to exit the Practice VoiceOver Gestures area. Another point: when a button or link has focus (because you've touched it, or flicked to it), you can double tap anywhere on the screen to activate it. Also, to go back to reach a previous screen in a tree, you'll generally double tap a button at the top left of the screen. So, if you choose to set up the triple-click home as a toggle switch for VoiceOver, after leaving the VoiceOver Screen by double tapping the Accessibility button at the top left, flick right until you reach the Triple-Click Home button (or just move your finger to the bottom of the screen to touch it), and double-tap. Then, flick right past Off to Toggle VoiceOver and double tap to select it. You can leave the various Settings menu screens by simply pressing the Home button at the bottom of the screen once. On your iPad question, it should be possible to use the iPad without an external keypad. However, what's very intriguing is a report from TUAW that some people were able to use the iPad Camera Kit attachment to hook up a USB keypad. This doesn't seem to be universal, since some people commented that they got a USB Device Not Recognized when they tried this, so we don't know which models this might work with. It may just work as a feature that is not officially supported. Here's the link to the TUAW article, Dear Aunt TUAW: Can I use a USB keyboard or headset with my iPad? by Erica Sadun, April 23, 2010: http://www.tuaw.com/2010/04/23/dear-aunt-tuaw-can-i-use-a-standard-keyboard-or-usb-headset-wit/ HTH Cheers, Esther Karen Lewellen wrote: Hi all, I just learned today that my mobile phone provider here in Toronto has the i-phone.

Re: Finally got my Mac Book Pro, and, freeware recommendations anybody?
Hi, I confess I haven't done much more than basic audio editing with Amadeus. I can say that if you choose an effects plugin, you're usually presented with a dialog box in which you can specify parameters. Scrubbing is doable although could be better in my opinion, arrows basically scrub. The trick to Amadeus Pro is that there is a play head and an insertion cursor. For reasons I'm sure I'll never understand, these two elements can not be linked. There are keyboard commands, however, to route the insertion pointer to play head, or route play head to insertion pointer. A pain to have to remember the keystrokes every time you want to make an edit, but eventually, it sort of becomes second nature. Yep, definitely no Sonar. :) Hope this helps and I'll try and research the EQ question a bit.

First, although nowhere near as good as Sonar, Amadeus Pro is a great, accessible audio editor for the Mac. The program costs $40 I believe, but it's well worth it. Second, you can burn DVDs directly from theFinder. Simply put whatever you want to burn in a folder, select that folder an under file, choose burn folder.

Re: removing widgits
OK, do you want to close the widget or get rid of it completely? Closing the widget will not cause Dashboard to load it, but it will remain available under your widget bar should you ever need it again. Uninstalling it completely, well, uninstalls it completely. :) To close a widget, i.e. one you don't use often but want to keep around, bring up teh the widget and vo-cmd-f2 (window close command). Press enter to confirm action. IF you ever need it again, go to widget bar in your window list and it'll be there. Now, to uninstall the widget completely, you have two options. I believe within the dashboard itself there is a way to manage widgets, I think this gives you an option to mark and remove specific widgets. I never use this approach, but remember it being relatively easy to use. My preferred method is to go to home/library/widgets and just delete the widget from there. As far as I know, the Mac doesn't keep any sort of widget database, so simply deleting them from the library/widgets folder really gets rid of them.
