Re: the cat and cd commands
Hi Sarah, First of all, if you are in your home directory you need to take the leading / off the path. / is the root directory and I don't think that's where you have your Pictures folder. There are a couple of ways to get there: cd Pictures/iphone pics cd Pictures/iphone\ pics The best way is to use tab completion. When working with files and directories on the command line, tab completion is your friend. Just type enough of the letters of the path and hit tab. You may have to repeat it several times for a long path.Also, remember that it is case sensitive. the ~/Pictures starts with a capital p. Strictly speaking, unix is case sensitive. The file system that OS10 uses isn't, but the tab complete is. The command line has it's quarks and just takes a little practice. I think it is worth it though. Hope that helps.

Re: reading down a table column when on the web

I use Magic Jack all the time to call family and friends in the States. While the ability to call for free is great (well, I did pay the annual fee) the program, in terms of friendliness leaves much to be desired. I have found three ways to quit Magic Jack: 1. From almost anywhere, go to the Apple Menu by pressing Voice Over M. Arrow down until you get to the Force Quit option. Click on that and then interact with the table that lists the programs that are currently running. When you get to the Magic Jack entry in the list, stop interacting with the table and VO Right until you get to the option that lets you force-quit the program. 2. If you don't want to navigate through the Apple menu to get to the Force Quit Applications option, type Command Option Escape from anywhere, and you will be put in the same program dialogue as in Number 1. Proceed as described in 1. 3. My preferred way of quitting Magic Jack, since the Command Q never works is to go into Finder and from there, find the Magic Jack volume. Once there, VO Shift M brings up a list of options, one of which is the command to eject Magic Jack. Press Enter on this option, wait a couple of seconds, and then remove the Magic Jack plug from its USB port on your Mac. I hope this helps just a little.

Re: Skype users vo suggestions
Hi. I would suggest, if we could get an answer button added to the call menu, so we would be able to create a hotkey for answering calls, and that again would make it possible to use a lot of wireless headsets. Best regards Annie.

ot playing m4a songs in Windows
Hi all, Wasn't sure where to take this question, since it involves both Mac and Windows, so thought I'd start here. I am noticing that some of my m4a songs play just fine in Windows Media player, while others won't play at all.

Hi Donna! I do not know if I'm barking up the wrong tree!

Re: the cat and cd commands
Sarah, Hit control-c to shut down the cat util. It doesn't mater if a file name has spaces. you can saround it with quotes, escape the space with \, or use tab. The tab completion applies at any time. The cat command expects a file name, and if it doesn't have one in it's parameter list it just sits there. Any time that happens, use control-c.

more on dpulicate messages
Hi all, I think the problem was on my end. I think my Mac woke up possessed this morning! :) At first I was only seeing the duplicates on this list, so thought the problem was on the list end, but then it started happening with other list too. Sorry for sounding off an alarm, and also for all the duplicate messages you all got. I've repaired permissions, and installed the update it wanted me to install, so hopefully my Mac will behave now.

Re: Safari and Google?
Courtney, Another method that seems a little easier to me, is to press command L and arrow to the right two times which will put you in a Google search field.

Re: navigating a webpage by headers, pre-snow leopard
Hi John, Teresa's suggestions of VO-Command-H to navigate headers will work for you to navigate web pages in Leopard. The most useful commands I found to use were VO-Command-H to navigate to the next header (with VO- Command-Shift-H to go to the previous header), and VO-Command-M to navigate to the next header at the same level (again, adding a Shift to the combination will take you to the previous header at the same level). As she mentioned, I also use the same sequences with L for links ,V for visited links, and J for next control. Using Shift gives you the previous instance. I'll paste in the complete list of commands from the Appendix of the VoiceOver Getting Started Guide for Leopard, which I still have as a bookmark under Preview, though the earlier summary is probably more useful: VoiceOver Shortcut Combinations for Searching (Leopard) Find VO-F Find the next font change VO-Command-O Find the previous font change VO-Command-Shift-O Find the next bold text VO-Command-B Find the previous bold text VO-Command-Shift-B Find the next style change VO-Command-C Find the previous style change VO-Command-Shift-C Find the next italic text VO-Command-I Find the previous italic text VO-Command-Shift-I Find the next color change VO-Command-K Find the previous color change VO-Command-Shift-K Find the next hyperlink VO-Command-L Find the previous hyperlink VO-Command-Shift-L Find the next plain text VO-Command-P Find the previous plain text VO-Command-Shift-P Find the next graphic VO-Command-G Find the previous graphic VO-Command-Shift-G Find the next underlined text VO-Command-U Find the previous underlined text VO-Command-Shift-U Find the next item of the same type or the same text style VO-Command-S Find the previous item of the same type or the same text style VO-Command-Shift-S Find the next control VO-Command-J Find the previous control VO-Command-Shift-J Find the next element that is different VO-Command-N Find the previous element that is different VO-Command-Shift-N Find the next table VO-Command-T Find the previous table VO-Command-Shift-T Find the next heading of the same level VO-Command-M Find the previous heading of the same level VO-Command-Shift-M Find the next heading VO-Command-H Find the previous heading VO-Command-Shift-H Find the next blockquote VO-Command-Q Find the previous blockquote VO-Command-Shift-Q Find the next visited link VO-Command-V Find the previous visited link VO-Command-Shift-V HTH.

More Navigation tips on Snow Leopard
Teresa, Your tips sent me searching and, in addition to the ones listed in the Commands help menu, I began checking the keyboard to see if there were others that weren't listed. To my pleasure, I found that VO Command X will take you to the next list on a web page. This helps me a lot with a couple of the web pages I visit. These keyboard commands are good additions to the Quick Nav. So thanks for sending me on this path.

Re: joining mov files?
Well, it is going to get a little more involved, but you can do the fallowing. this will strip the header from file1, contatinate it with file2, and write the final result to final_file: sed 1d|cat file2 /dev/stdinfinal_file This is assuming that the header is 1 line. you need to know how many lines it is and replace the integer in the sed command accordingly. if you have a bunch of files who's headers need to be stripped: ( sed 1d file1sed 1d file2 so on )|cat file /dev/stdinfinal_ file It might be a good idea to play around with this on simple text files just so you know what order you want the files to be in.

Re: exporting music from itunes?
Hi Donna! I hope you are sitting comfortably! I've gone through it on mine and this is what I have for you! To convert to mp3! 1, Open Itunes and select preference's by pressing cmd and , If it's like mine you should be on general if so very good, if not go to the tool bar and interact with it by pressing vo and shift and down arrow, in there you have a selection of different options the 1st being [ general button ] use vo space bar to select then stop interacting with the tool bar! So if you are on general you'll have options to scroll along right arrow, go along until you find import set press vo space to open menu, in there you can select different formats including mp3, scroll down to it then vo space bar to select this! After that scroll all the way to the right until you get to the ok button and vo space bar that! You should now be back in Itunes! Now find the album or track you want to make mp3, [ if it is a whole album I think you have to select all tracks ] but if just one track sit on it and then press vo+shift+m and scroll down to make mp3 version and press vo space bar! There will now be 2 versions of the track\album one of which will be the mp3! Note if you leave that import setting the same way! All future imports from cd will also be mp3! So if you want to always have mp3 versions leave it that way, if not go back to import settings and change it back! Next getting the track's from hd library! All your songs are stored in the hd library and this is where I get them from to put on my nokia! If you know how to get to your hd list open and scroll down to Itunes open in there should be an music folder in side should be all your music, Scroll through them until you find the track you are look in for! There should be 2 versions one of which will say mp3 at the end the other will say acc or something else! So get on the mp3 one and then copy and paste on to your phone! If it helps when I've got my phone connected by usb open at the place where i'm putting the songs, I can scroll through windows from hd list to phone by pressing cmd tilde, that way I go to hd copy track then cmd tilde and then paste to phone! I hope you are not asleep now! Colin :-] ps maybe someone else can give you a better way!

Re: joining mov files?
Hi Sarah and Barry, First, Barry's instructions about using the cat command in terminal to concatenate files are quite accurate, but they won't solve Sarah's problem about how to join .mov files and end up with a playable result, and this has to do with the structure of these files. Such a file joining program has to both put the data in the individual files together, and update the header information so that it reflects the new total length. Further, there can be potential incompatibilities between the different files being used -- an easy example would be if you were joining constant bit rate audio mp3 files, where one of the files was encoded at a different bit rate. If all the files are constant bit rate and encoded at the same rate, it's relatively easy to just concatenate the individual files (with a cat command), and then to update the file header information to reflect a new total time. However, once you include a file with different properties, simply sticking that file into the middle may no longer work, and you might have to re-encode the information. The structure is actually more complicated for movie files, since instead of a single header with tags, you have a container that holds both the audio and video parts of a movie, with separate atoms (like tags) for the various metadata. I believe QuickTime Pro (paid) will join movie files, and allow you to operate through the GUI interface. I've also heard that MPEG StreamClip will handle this kind of operation. Probably someone like Darcy Burnard could comment on this, since I don't know whether these work with the output formats that Sarah wants.

Re: navigating a webpage by headers, pre-snow leopard
Hi Linda, This morning in the original post that started this thread, John D. Lipsey wrote that he used quick nav to get to headings, but that the leopard machines in the school he works in of course don't have quick nav. That lead me to wonder if there is another way to perform object navigation. I thought John might be implying that quick nav offered an alternative to control option command H or control option command shift h. If you read right down to the bottom of the thread below our two messages, you can see what John wrote.

I'll give that a go and hopefully post back with results.

I am jsut curious. Thanks. On Aug 18, 2010, at 2:57 PM, Esther wrote: Hi Sarah and Barry, First, Barry's instructions about using the cat command in terminal to concatenate files are quite accurate, but they won't solve Sarah's problem about how to join .mov files and end up with a playable result, and this has to do with the structure of these files. Such a file joining program has to both put the data in the individual files together, and update the header information so that it reflects the new total length. Further, there can be potential incompatibilities between the different files being used -- an easy example would be if you were joining constant bit rate audio mp3 files, where one of the files was encoded at a different bit rate. If all the files are constant bit rate and encoded at the same rate, it's relatively easy to just concatenate the individual files (with a cat command), and then to update the file header information to reflect a new total time. However, once you include a file with different properties, simply sticking that file into the middle may no longer work, and you might have to re-encode the information. The structure is actually more complicated for movie files, since instead of a single header with tags, you have a container that holds both the audio and video parts of a movie, with separate atoms (like tags) for the various metadata. I believe QuickTime Pro (paid) will join movie files, and allow you to operate through the GUI interface. I've also heard that MPEG StreamClip will handle this kind of operation. Probably someone like Darcy Burnard could comment on this, since I don't know whether these work with the output formats that Sarah wants. I've only really explored this subject in the context of working with audiobook files.

a change in how to play Audible.com samples
Hi there, Just thought I'd post that the normal procedure we use to play Audible.com samples on the results page no longer works. I have called Audible about this. Now, to play a sample, it is necessary to actually click on the page for the given book from which you wish to play a sample and then play it from there. Here's how you do it. 1. Find the book from which you wish to play a sample. 2. Open that book's page. 3. Find where it says sample on the page. 4. Now, manually rout the mouse pointer to the word sample by pressing command+VO+shift+F5. 5. Now, lock down the VO keys via command+semicolon. 6. Press F5 to ensure that the word sample is under the mouse. You may wish to press VO+command+shift+F5 to make doubly sure. 7. Now, move your mouse directly in an exactly straight line to the right. Make very certain you move directly in only a straight line going neither up nor down or at an angle of any sourt. IF you're using a track padd, you can place a finger directly on the very left uper corner and move right. Move very slowly as you do so. 8. As you move your mouse, press F5 one time after another to make certain of what the mouse is resting over. 9. When you hear, empty scrol area you will know to stop moving the mouse. 10. Now, press and hold down your control key and actually click press the mouse itself or else, if using your track padd, physically press the padd. 11. At this point, a menu consisting of thirteen items will appear. Just arrow down and press the space bar on the play button. Note that, after you've started a sample playing, you will need to turn off Voice Over and turn it on again. Otherwise, You will not see the thirteen item menu when you go to play the next sample.

Re: Performance settings for voice over
I believe this is an issue with all applications in general. I tend to find that Safari, iTunes and Mail can become a bit sluggish, as well as Voiceover. This is on a Macbook Pro that gets put to sleep more often than it gets shut down or restarted. A quick restart often fixes the problem. Having said this, take into consideration that times between restarts are very long—possibly a week or two—and that my MBP is running on 8 GB of RAM with a 256 GB HD.

the joining of mov files
Well I managed to join the mov files using mp stream clip or what ever that software was called. I somehow misplaced a whole thread of messages on this. lol. for some reason I did not get any audio when exporting to avi and I know not why but it's my lack of knowledge on this subject that is probably a hindrance. Thanks to ester and everyone. Take care.

Re: Performance settings for voice over
Kevin, I have a Macbook Pro with 4Gb of ram and a 500Gb hd. I generally end up bouncing the box every three days or so. Since I work from home three days a week I will leave the machine up during the day and just put it to sleep at night. I can't recall that I have left it without a reboot for more than a week, but perhaps I will give this a try and see if I experience the same issue.

RE: a change in how to play Audible.com samples
Good lord. I wish Audible would just put a sample link to the MP3. It's exposed if you view the source of the page, so why not just have a link? If you don't feel like messing with the mouse in any way, you can get the mp3 link from the source of the page. HTH, Blake From: rfore...@comcast.net Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2010 19:00:14 -0500 Subject: a change in how to play Audible.com samples Hi there, Just thought I'd post that the normal procedure we use to play Audible.com samples on the results page no longer works. I have called Audible about this. Now, to play a sample, it is necessary to actually click on the page for the given book from which you wish to play a sample and then play it from there. Here's how you do it. 1. Find the book from which you wish to play a sample. 2. Open that book's page. 3. Find where it says sample on the page. 4. Now, manually rout the mouse pointer to the word sample by pressing command+VO+shift+F5. 5. Now, lock down the VO keys via command+semicolon. 6. Press F5 to ensure that the word sample is under the mouse. You may wish to press VO+command+shift+F5 to make doubly sure. 7. Now, move your mouse directly in an exactly straight line to the right. Make very certain you move directly in only a straight line going neither up nor down or at an angle of any sourt. IF you're using a track padd, you can place a finger directly on the very left uper corner and move right. Move very slowly as you do so. 8. As you move your mouse, press F5 one time after another to make certain of what the mouse is resting over. 9. When you hear, empty scrol area you will know to stop moving the mouse. 10. Now, press and hold down your control key and actually click press the mouse itself or else, if using your track padd, physically press the padd. 11. At this point, a menu consisting of thirteen items will appear. Just arrow down and press the space bar on the play button. Note that, after you've started a sample playing, you will need to turn off Voice Over and turn it on again. Otherwise, You will not see the thirteen item menu when you go to play the next sample.

Accessible Tivo App with Snow Leopard
Hi all: I don't know if you remember me asking for help transferring Tivo shows from my Tivo to my Mac?I said that was the only thing I couldn't do on the Mac. Well, I found an accessible, Free app that will transfer, and decode. You can even enable the iPhone decoder, and the app will sync your Tivo shows to your iPhone. It is called iTivo. It appears to be accessible so far. The only drawback is that the downloading and decoding can be slow. An average hour long show is about 760MB so you couldn't put many shows on the phone. They even have an audio only decoder which will extract the picture, and a decoder that is supposed to skip commercials when decoding the program. It's a neat app. Sarai Bucciarelli Personal Come join me on www.swagbucks.com/refer/sdbuccia -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
