Re: Skype fishing scam

2010-12-11 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi!

Yep, I see the same until I realized Skype had for some reason changed my 
settings back. One tried to send me a .exe file, claiming there was a picture 
inside. The same contact sent me a .zip file later, claiming that inside, there 
were hundreds of naked pictures of her in various positions.

Of course, I think it's sad that some take advantage of PC-users this way, but 
I couldn't help but chuckle slightly over the fact I'm  not running WIndows. 
It's sad just the same, though. Part of me wonders when we will see this on our 
Macs.

Nic

Hi, do you have the latest version of growl installed?  Growl notifies me if 
some one else puts something in my dropbox, so I'm assuming it can notify you 
about finished uploads to your own dropbox as well.  I don't have mine set up 
that way, but it might be possible.

My Eyepal demo is here.

2010-12-11 Thread erik burggraaf
Well boys and girls...  I was all gung hoe to spend the morning with my demo 
eyepal, testing it on various printed material and working up a podcast on the 
thing.  Unfortunately when I got it out the box I discovered that mac software 
was not included.  Further to my irritation, there's no demo download of the 
thing.  You have to buy it for $150.  I dano guys this could be a show stopper 
for me.  I don't really want to give up on the eyepal just yet, but I don't 
want to get ripped off either.  It's just unbelievably irritating to have the 
thing sit here and not be able to play with it.  I might have to rig up a 
windows solution just to try it out, but that really wasn't the idea at all.

Hi Eric,
Did you try calling abisee to see about getting the Mac software? I thought I 
had read somewhere that you could get it as a download, although I sure didn't 
see any downloads on their site. I figured maybe they sent folks a link or 
something when you actually bought the unit. I know that when you order, you 
have to pick between windows or Mac software; they don't ship both which, 
frankly, given the cost of the device, seems just a bit ridiculous. Its not 
like they had to actually write mac-specific software that takes advantage of 
voiceover. Good luck with it.

Hi Mary, it's the weekend, so I'm assuming nothing's open.  I have to go to 
humanware for support since it's there unit.  You can bet your life I'll be on 
the phone to my contact first thing Monday morning.  Not only did I get no mac 
software, but neither did I get current windows software. I've got 1.0 and 
they're on 1.2.

Now I'll grant you it's been running in my virtual machine, but still, I've had 
at least 6 or 8 crashes in the hour I've been using it.  The previous and next 
page commands don't seem to be working.  The quality of the speech is nowhere 
near what the synthesizers are capable of.  It's fine for scanning regular 
black and white, but it doesn't do so well with pamphlets.  The documentation 
is sketchy, and the tutorial videos are impossibly boring.  I'm sure I'd like 
this thing better if I had the most up-to-date software for my current platform 
of choice and documentation that was complete and didn't suck.

Right now though it's just not impressing $2000 worth out of me.

having some really weird network problems.

2010-12-11 Thread Oriol Gómez
Hi all,
I'm having some very very weird network issues.
I use a router with dhcp enabled and I have my windows box configured
to connect to it.
As soon as I connect my mac to the same wireless, internet dies on my
windows box in a way that I am able to use my open connections but I
can't open new ones such as creating websites etc.
If I disconnect the mac it stays the same way until I power cycle the router.
Has anyone else experienced this?
It seems very weird to me.

I personaly wouldn't have jailbroken my 3gs if it was a tethered

Some cool things I've been doing with jailbroken apps:
Turn your iPhone into a wireless hotspot with pdaNet.
Use 5 icon doc to put 5 icons onto your doc.
Use fullscreen safari to have a full screen browser.
Use pwnTunes to drag and drop music onto your device or wifiSync to
sync wirelessly.
And for the more geeky amongst us, theres always open ssh.

RE: my apple mail keeps crashing! Help please?

2010-12-11 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Well, the error looked like a IMAP sync issue to me. If you have time
machine, iwould suggest deleting your IMAP accounts and adding them
back in.
Also, are you using google email i believe? Make sure you do not have
an all mail folder. These are known to cause issues when you handle
lots of mail. FOR one person, I had to remove the SPAM folder, since
they were getting 1000 spam messages every c
Hours.

Well got what I believe to have a final responce. I don't have the
time to take it in to the apple store and this happens randomly
remember.

Hi Sarah,

If Mail is not accepting attachments, then it sounds as if there is
more going on with the OS or the application itself.  Looking over the
log you pasted in, Mail is encountering an issue with rendering the
message you are viewing.  You may need to contact AppleCare or visit
an Apple Retail store to see if they can help repair the Operating
System.

Apple Accessibility

thoughts:
 why would it randomly have trouble rendering messages? and if I read
line by line why won't it happen then? so this seems to me this is a
voice over issue.

Re: having some really weird network problems.

2010-12-11 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
The non closing dialog really does make it sound like a ip issue. I
don't know the mac command, but I'd try an ipconfig /release then an
ipconfig /renew on both computers.
Failing that, make sure that both devices are set to use dhcp, clear
any reservations on the router side, reset the router and see what
happens.

 Subject: having some really weird network problems.
 Hi all,
 I'm having some very very weird network issues.
 I use a router with dhcp enabled and I have my windows box configured
 to connect to it.
 As soon as I connect my mac to the same wireless, internet dies on my
 windows box in a way that I am able to use my open connections but I
 can't open new ones such as creating websites etc.
 If I disconnect the mac it stays the same way until I power cycle the
 router.
 Has anyone else experienced this?
 It seems very weird to me.

Re: jailbreaking?

2010-12-11 Thread Rose Morales
WHoa whoa whoa! SOme of your responses to the original jailbreak question are 
killing me here! I have done three successful jailbreaks of a 3gS. I use Cydia 
accessibly, and I have my phone running on t-mobile. I enjoy using quite a few 
jb apps, and I've even got a few themes and ringtones from the jb app store. 
You can read more about all of this on applevis.com. My introduction to 
jailbreaking guide can be found here.

 I'm away from a computer.
 
 Some cool things I've been doing with jailbroken apps:
 Turn your iPhone into a wireless hotspot with pdaNet.
 Use 5 icon doc to put 5 icons onto your doc.
 Use fullscreen safari to have a full screen browser.
 Use pwnTunes to drag and drop music onto your device or wifiSync to
 sync wirelessly.
 And for the more geeky amongst us, theres always open ssh.

 To use the one I am giving here you will need to use a PC and teather the

 You need the IOS

 You can get that download here,

 Also this file ran under windows,

 Now there are some draw backs to this and no cydia is not useable with

 can not be turned off or the will have to be broke teatherd again.
 But, if your like me, I hardly turn mine off anyway.

speech volumes

2010-12-11 Thread William Windels
hello all,

I find no way to change the system volume of my default voice for voiceover.
I can adjust the speed in system preferences but not the volume I think.

The problem is that, growl is announcing events very loudly.

I have also set the volume to 21% in stead off 31% in the volume-settings in 
the system-menu but this seems not to make any difference.

so, my question:
can I adjust the default volume of the speech ?

Thanx for your answers,

William

Hi,

The only thing I woulld recomend is if you are going to get a mini is that you 
get a vga addapter and connecgt a monitor so that vo will run smoother, but if 
you are only looking at just using the mac for e-mail, web browsing, some word 
prossing and the like then the mini is something I would go for.  I have a mini 
which I am using to write this message and it is wlorking fine.  i have it noew

Re: location of trash folder

2010-12-11 Thread Jürgen Fleger
Hi All,

the trash folder is in your home folder. All you have to do is to make hidden 
items visible. You can do this for example by using TinkerTool. But I'm sure 
there are many other possible tools for doing this.

Regards 
Jürgen

Hi!

An easier way is to use the Terminal to do this. A command such as this one 
will do it.
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

Then, kill the Finder to apply the changes. Simply replace TRUE with FALSE 
to reverse.

Re: My Eyepal demo is here.

2010-12-11 Thread Hai Nguyen
Good afternoon Erik, 
Please let me know if you would be interested in trying out the Mac version of 
the software. I've been told by Abisee that the software should be available 
for download, however I have not been able to find it. I've since gotten a copy 
of the application directly from a representative.

 Hi Mary, it's the weekend, so I'm assuming nothing's open.  I have to go to 
 humanware for support since it's there unit.  You can bet your life I'll be 
 on the phone to my contact first thing Monday morning.  Not only did I get no 
 mac software, but neither did I get current windows software. I've got 1.0 
 and they're on 1.2.
 
 Now I'll grant you it's been running in my virtual machine, but still, I've 
 had at least 6 or 8 crashes in the hour I've been using it.  The previous and 
 next page commands don't seem to be working.  The quality of the speech is 
 nowhere near what the synthesizers are capable of.  It's fine for scanning 
 regular black and white, but it doesn't do so well with pamphlets.  The 
 documentation is sketchy, and the tutorial videos are impossibly boring.  I'm 
 sure I'd like this thing better if I had the most up-to-date software for my 
 current platform of choice and documentation that was complete and didn't 
 suck.
 
 Right now though it's just not impressing $2000 worth out of me.

 Did you try calling abisee to see about getting the Mac software? I thought 
 I had read somewhere that you could get it as a download, although I sure 
 didn't see any downloads on their site. I figured maybe they sent folks a 
 link or something when you actually bought the unit. I know that when you 
 order, you have to pick between windows or Mac software; they don't ship 
 both which, frankly, given the cost of the device, seems just a bit 
 ridiculous. Its not like they had to actually write mac-specific software 
 that takes advantage of voiceover. Good luck with it.

Hi,

How come it's that ridiculously priced? It's actually the price of two macbook 
airs, and i thought apple was going premium with their stuff. I understand the 
cost of manufacture/quantity of sale/specialization of the device but 2k for 
something like that is basically laughing at the blind man's difficulties and 
adding more fuel to the fire.

Sorry for my language but i cannot comprehend the level of anger mustering out 
of me in regards to these so called accessiblity solutions when all it does is 
one function, and not even that great as i read on this thred.

Hi Erik,

I'm not sure where you might have read that you have to pay for the mac 
software, since it is available for download directly from the abisee support 
page. Here is the link

http://www.abisee.com/support/software.html

I'm not sure why it's such a huge download though. It's about a gigabyte. 
Anyway, I downloaded it when it first came out but haven't had the opportunity 
to connect my eyepal and try it out yet.

Hope this helps.
