Re: garmin GPS iphone app
Hello, I was trying the gamin app on the Belgium app-store but it seems not to exists. There are some apps with gamin and gps in the name but this sounds like something else. Can you give the exact name of the program pls?

First, this app does not store its maps on the device, it downloads them as needed, this means that you could have problems if you end up in an area with no coverage, I think most areas are covered these days though. One feature I really hope will be added is to have spoken instructions when in walk mode, currently it just beeps to indicate when you need to turn, but spoken instructions are only provided for driving roots. I emailed them asking for this feature in an update. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: learning voiceover the old fashioned way?
I signed up for one to one training and schedule my classes so that I get the same trainer. We built a working relationship and she is learning voiceover as we work together. I also learn from manuals podcasts and this list. The best way to learn is teaching. Also remember that the Apple store primarily works by appointment.

Hi Karen: A couple of things come to mind here. I'm not big on podcasts, and, like you prefer to learn hands on or at least with something hardcopy braille. There are a couple of options. If you read braille, there is a braille version of the getting started guide availaable from I believe the san Fransisco lighthouse. There is also a tutorial available through Handytech USA though I'm not sure which format it comes in. Last I knew the cost for that one was $75, and you can get it through Handytech usa. Another option is to check out the text tutorials on the Apple website,. There are also workshops through Handitech, and one to one from Apple directly, if there is an Apple store near you.

I prefer, especially if I cannot get hands on training, or if I have seen that others may have issues, to read as much as I can in advance. so, has anyone put together a solid users guide specifically for voiceover? I realize any such guide would be in flux, changing as apple upgrades the system in general, and voiceover in particular. Still a solid guide, more for reading than say someones audio tutorials would be fantastic. Say the sort of book one would use in a classroom, or that would have come in the box with your old style screen readers? thanks in advance, Karen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: VLC iOS developers respond to app's removal:
Ricardo, the point is, there is some problem with apple's app store policy and opensource software (which VLC is supposed to be). believe me, I have read the gpl up and down more times than I would ever want to, and there is a clear conflict with apple's app store policy (specifically placing DRM on everything). I am not sure about this alleged letter purportedly from apple about having the app pulled by the developer. what I have seen so far looks like the blame game. anyway, its pretty much a dead issue as far as the app store goes. However, since that app is open source, you should be able to transfer a copy to your computer and share it with whomever you wish. since apple no longer has it on their app store, they cannot say anything about it. -Eric On Jan 11, 2011, at 2:46 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: Am I in the minority that doesn't care? :).

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
James, I am not loyal to any company, which I feel has to be stated up front because of what I'm going to say next. I have been with ATT for nearly two years and to be honest I have not had any problems with their customer service. Only once did they make an error, which was something to do with the system and a change I made. They corrected the problem quickly and offered me compensation. Now I have had little reason to call customer service in any case with either company. I will point out though Verizon made life very difficult for me when I opted to switch to ATT and tried charging me early termination fees even though my contract had ended. It took me a couple of months to get the issue resolved. So, a lot of this in my opinion is expectation about service and of course everyone will have different experiences and of course different experience with the service as a result of where they live. I have a Verizon cell phone for work and I get better coverage in my house with ATT then I do with Verizon, as an example. THe point is none of these companies are more interested in making as much money as possible. What will be interesting is if Verizon can live up to the hype. What I hope as a result of this is more competition in plans. For example, Verizon apparently is going to offer unlimited data to new iPhone customers and I wonder how long this will last. I would hope it would push ATT back to offering the same to current and new customers. Now I do have an unlimited data plan, but I always felt it was unfair to introduce such crappy plans at 200Mb and 2Gb for those price points. Another thing that will be very interesting is what net neutrality will do to the cell industry and that is something brewing in the pipeline.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
well, I had my moments with t-mobile. However, they are still the lowest price point for cell service. They also worked with me on my current contract. Even though the phone I have requires a data plan, they waived that requirement because of my blindness. This clinches it for me. unless ATT, Sprint or verizon can say the same thing and offer the same. -Eric On Jan 11, 2011, at 3:56 AM, Scott Howell wrote: James, I am not loyal to any company, which I feel has to be stated up front because of what I'm going to say next.

And conversely, is there one to hang up? 2. Once I type my sms message, how do I send it? 3. Should I not be able to type the name of the contact I want to call or sms once in the list of contacts and have that person come into focus? 4. Is the chat feature accessible and if so, how do I see what is being typed to me? 5. I see names from my address book repeated, some as many as four times. Can I get rid of the extras and if so, how? Thanks in advance for any help; I was pretty proficient with skype in windows with window-eyes, so I sort of know what should be happening but in some cases is not.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
Hi Scott: I'd have to agree with you that att has generally given me very good and responsive customer service when I've had to call in. Their network is imperfect, as they all are. BTW: I'm unfamiliar with the term net neutrality. Is that a Scottism, or an actuality?:) And what does it refer to?

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
Carolyn, The short version is that carriers want to charge on a tiered system. My advice to you and all is do a little research on this topic and get familiar with it. There may be a time when you will want to make your voice heard. I think it is save to say that you do not want to be charged based on the content you access for example. I am no expert, so I will leave you to your own thoughts with this.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
hi, the way this may all play out is with competitive pricing. for example, when i switched to the iphone and thus att, i got 100 fewer minutes and a $20.00 price increase. att tried to tell me i was getting a good deal because i get calls free if i am calling another of its customers. but most of my contacts do not have att. also, there was nothing for those of us wishing to upgrade from the 3gs to the 4g. and if you did that, kiss your unlimited data plan good-bye. i do not know how clear the call signal is on verizon. a friend of mine has a blackberry with US Cellular, and talking on her phone is like talking on a land line. so i suspect these will be considerations when discussing customer satisfaction.

Re: I am now on dropbox but need help with the app
Hi, When I attempt to access Dropbox preferences with VoiceOver, VoiceOver does not read this window on my machine. The Window Chooser menu doesn't see it and when I tab, VoiceOver is silent. My sighted son reports that I am tabbing through the preferences but nothing from VoiceOver. This is version 1 of DropBox. I believe that the preferences window was accessible to VoiceOver in the earlier version but doesn't appear to be in the current release. Can anybody else verify this?

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
What? If you had the unlimited plan and upgraded to a iPhone 4, you didn't lose unlimited data. Not unless you changed your plan when you upgraded.

Thanks Carolyn H On Jan 11, 2011, at 3:56 AM, Scott Howell wrote: James, I am not loyal to any company, which I feel has to be stated up front because of what I'm going to say next. I have been with ATT for nearly two years and to be honest I have not had any problems with their customer service. Only once did they make an error, which was something to do with the system and a change I made. They corrected the problem quickly and offered me compensation. Now I have had little reason to call customer service in any case with either company. I will point out though Verizon made life very difficult for me when I opted to switch to ATT and tried charging me early termination fees even though my contract had ended. It took me a couple of months to get the issue resolved. So, a lot of this in my opinion is expectation about service and of course everyone will have different experiences and of course different experience with the service as a result of where they live. I have a Verizon cell phone for work and I get better coverage in my house with ATT then I do with Verizon, as an example. THe point is none of these companies are more interested in making as much money as possible. What will be interesting is if Verizon can live up to the hype. What I hope as a result of this is more competition in plans. For example, Verizon apparently is going to offer unlimited data to new iPhone customers and I wonder how long this will last. I would hope it would push ATT back to offering the same to current and new customers. Now I do have an unlimited data plan, but I always felt it was unfair to introduce such crappy plans at 200Mb and 2Gb for those price points. Another thing that will be very interesting is what net neutrality will do to the cell industry and that is something brewing in the pipeline.

OK, I didn't get Dropbox to show up in the app chooser menu, but when you're in the Dropbox menu, press space on Preferences - enter or VO space don't seem to work.

queztion about Optical drives in the MacBook Pro
Hi all, Well I encountered a rather odd problem that a total reinstall resolved once before, but that just is not going to be an option whenever this comes up. I have no idea what is causing this problem, but my internal DVD drive will no longer view the contents of a disc. In fact every disc I insert is being reported to the OS as being blank. Of course this also means the drive will not burn any discs either. The last time I encountered this issue I was able to read discs, but not write to them. I have to admit that this problem makes no sense, but I'm leaning toward a bad plist file that is not apparently showing as being bad (if that makes sense). So, does anyone know which plist files I could trash or what else I could possibly do to address this issue? I do not have any DVD burning software installed, which was my initial thought. I did take the machine in about a year and a half ago and had the drive replaced, which at the end of the day turned out not to even be the issue. So, I am pretty confident the drive is not the problem. Now what is more curious is an external drive works perfectly. So, is it possible the internal drive has gone bad? Sure. However, I'm inclined to think it may be a software issue. Of course I may just install SL on an external drive and see what happens, but thought I would put the question out there as well. Thanks, Scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
Denise, If you upgraded from the iPHone 3GS to 4, you did not loose your data plan. I checked this out very carefully, but opted not to upgrade at that time. I checked again recently and was told that the only way I would loose my data plan, which is unlimited, is if I switched to one of the existing data plans, (i.e. unlimited to 2Gb etc.) So, changing equipment has no affect on your data plan. As far as quality of calls, I have yet to hear any cell phone provide the same level of quality as a landline phone. The cell call always has some digital artifacts that landline calls do not.

Re: queztion about Optical drives in the MacBook Pro
Hi, Do yourself a favor and set-up an appointment with the Apple store and bring it in if this is an option. As long as you can reproduce the problem the should be able to fix it at no cost to you and get he matter resolved and over with. I had a problem with my track pad about a month ago, met with a tech, left my machine with him and the next morning it was back at 100 percent. They don't care where you got the machine because as long as it is a Mac it's all in the family as far as they're concerned. Best, Earle On Jan 11, 2011, at 8:44 AM, Scott Howell wrote: Hi all, Well I encountered a rather odd problem that a total reinstall resolved once before, but that just is not going to be an option whenever this comes up. I have no idea what is causing this problem, but my internal DVD drive will no longer view the contents of a disc. In fact every disc I insert is being reported to the OS as being blank. Of course this also means the drive will not burn any discs either. The last time I encountered this issue I was able to read discs, but not write to them. I have to admit that this problem makes no sense, but I'm leaning toward a bad plist file that is not apparently showing as being bad (if that makes sense). So, does anyone know which plist files I could trash or what else I could possibly do to address this issue? I do not have any DVD burning software installed, which was my initial thought. I did take the machine in about a year and a half ago and had the drive replaced, which at the end of the day turned out not to even be the issue. So, I am pretty confident the drive is not the problem. Now what is more curious is an external drive works perfectly. So, is it possible the internal drive has gone bad? Sure. However, I'm inclined to think it may be a software issue. Of course I may just install SL on an external drive and see what happens, but thought I would put the question out there as well.

RE: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
Just out of curiosity, is anyone following the live coverage of the Verizon press event scheduled for 11:00 AM EST in New York? If you are like me and waiting for another class to start as snow pounds silently down all around you (and are devoid of a life:), then CNet is where it's happening. Of course, I myself have doubts as to whether or not a iPhone will be announced today-why come out with a CDMA iPhone when the iPhone 5 will probably come out this June and will have 4G? Apple (and the carriers) can't be banking on everyone to get the hypothetical iPhone 4 for Verizon and then upgrade to the 4G version sure to come out this fall. If Verizon is going to get an iPhone at all, you would think it would be when the 5 comes out this June and ATT has launched their 4g network. I know this skews a bit off-topic, but I find it interesting as I am sick of Windows Mobile phones and would love an iPhone.

Re: Inserting bullets n Pages
Question here that you might not be able to answer... WHen you use the option 8 it tells the Mac to enter the 'bullet' character. Does pages turn a set of paragraphs each starting with the bullet character into a 'bulleted list'? The best way to tell this would be to save as HTML and then view it in Safari. If scanning the bulleted items it says something like list of 20 items at the start then Pages does do this.

Re: qtkitserver process
Yes this is some process associated with the Quicktime framework. I found some discussions of this process constantly increasing thread counts until it crashed.

Re: I am now on dropbox but need help with the app

If it is not too much trouble, could someone give me a brief or not so brief explanation of how the heck I use this? My friend has things like a my drop box folder and other folders which I do not have. She says that all she does is paste files into her drop box public folder, which I do not seem to have, and she can then send links to those files to whomever she wishes.

Re: Good news about VueScan 9
I am a bit new to scanning on the Mac. Well that is a small lie, a year ago when I had sight I used my Canon MP630 to scan photos etc. But now that I have no sight I would like to get into OCR for the Mac. I have an iPal Solo which is fine for reading most things, but chuck a bank statement or an invoice at it and it can then fall over. So how much is this Vuescan and is OCR built in?

Re: queztion about Optical drives in the MacBook Pro
I would love to do that, but we do not have an APple store handy and well um, it is not under warranty any longer. Hell, this one stumped the techs when it was under warranty. Yeah, I somehow neglected to get the Apple care, but won't next time. :) Of course I want an answer more than I just want it to work. THis is so that next time it occurs, I can correct the problem myself. Scott On Jan 11, 2011, at 10:02 AM, Earle M.

Re: queztion about Optical drives in the MacBook Pro
Thanks, but I am more than certain it is not the drive. The drive was replaced nearly a year ago. Again, this turned out to be a software issue since a complete install of SL resolved the problem. SOmething is messing things up and I'm going to try and figure out what. As I said, the one good thing is I have an external drive. Of course I do not use the drive often, so at some point I may just remove it and stuff another hard drive in there.

If shit or damn or screwed is good enough for prime time television, BBC over the air or over the air radio it's definitely OK for the list or one should assume that. If people don't like that language the can crawl back from under the rock from where they came and hit that big button on the front of their computer that says power.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
Hi, Personally, the language doesn't bother me. But I don't think that people not liking that language and asking someone not to use it is some sort of slap in the face. After all, those this look like the type of list were that kind of language is condoned? I can read hundreds of messages from this list and not come across 1 word stronger than hell. So I guess I'm saying, you often find yourself needing to conform to the people your conversing with at large. And since when was ones moral or social compass calibrated by what is done on primetime television? :). And just because your an adult doesn't mean your want to be subjected to senseless profanity.

Re: Good news about VueScan 9
Hi Chris: Ocr is built in, and I've started having success with it after a little help from another user. If you're in the US, it's about $39.95. I'm using a canon mp160 successfully. Just have to figure out how to fill in the edit boxes to tell it what to name and where to save. I'm feeling particularly dense, as I keep scanning and getting the same page ack, even when I put in other material. go figure. Guess if all else fails I could plow through the users guide.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
I totally agree. It is simply a matter of respecting everyone on this list. Also such language is not acceptable on prime time TV, that's what the watershed is for, not that that is relevant. Those who use such profanity obviously have a limited vocabulary, restricting their ability to express themselves. Paul.

iPhone and iPOD Touch differences?
Hi all, I'm curious what you all know about the differences between the iPhone4 and the iPod touch, other than the obvious phone capabilities of course. I've had my eye on the iPhone since shortly after getting a mac, and as anyone following me on twitter could tell you I kept a close eye on any rumors about when it would get to Verizon. Strangely, now that Verizon has finally made it official, I'm suddenly not sure. The idea of adding another $30 to my bill for a smartphone data plan is a little hard to swallow. From what I can tell, the iPod touch can run all of the same apps, and I'm satisfied with a phone that places calls and does text messaging. Of course the touch can only use wifi, but if I'm away from a wifi connection, I'm probably quite busy doing something and don't need those distractions anyway. From what I have been able to gather, the phone has a far better camera, which is only compelling if there is a great OCR app available to use it with. More important is that the iPOD doesn't appear to have GPS functionality. One would hope that standard bluetooth GPS receivers would work with the touch and allow the use of apps such as Navigon. If not, it would seem odd if there wasn't a GPS receiver among the hundreds of add-ons designed specifically for the iPOD touch. Does anyone know if this is possible? Other than these, what other differences have you guys noticed? Thanks, Justin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
As much as I would normally avoid chiming in on this discussion, it is necessary to keep in mind that that no one knows who is on this list. Furthermore, what you say and how you say it is how others view you as a person. Perhaps you do not care (not pointing at any one person); however, keep in mind that people take you more seriously when you present yourself in a respectful and respectable manner. Personally language does not offend me, but I'm only one person and thus I have to consider the group as a whole. And yes, this is aside from what the moderators have already stated with regard to what has been deemed inappropriate language. So, guess that makes me a kid too and at my age I think I like that idea. Scott On Jan 11, 2011, at 1:45 PM, Carolyn Haas wrote: Hi Michael: It's an issue of tact and a modicum of professionalism.

QTKitServer slowdowns associated with problematic video files [was Re: qtkitserver process]
Hi Yuma and Sarah, I haven't personally run into this problem with QTKitServer, but I did some searching on the Apple Support Discussion forums, and came across a thread titled QTKitServer hogging CPU. Most of the cases where this process starts running and hogging your CPU can be traced to a corrupt or incompletely downloaded video file. The QTKitServer process only appears when you select files with a non-native Quicktime Codec in Finder, or play one of these files in Quicktime player. That means, it's not associated with files that have extensions like .mp4 or .mov (unless you have been trying to generate such files from problematic video files), but file types like .wmv, .avi, .divx, etc. may cause this to launch. QTKitServer streams data from QuickTime X to QuickTime 7 either because the codec for the movie isn't directly supported in QT X, or because the action (most filtering, transcoding, and editing functions) aren't supported under QT X. The process will disappear (if the file was not problematic) when you close the Finder window or when you close the file in Quicktime player. The original poster of the thread discussion I found traced his problems to a corrupt .AVI file that he had downloaded. In his case, on a brand-new MacBook Pro, selecting this file in Finder immediately caused QTKitServer to make his CPU activity to spike, and even when he closed the Finder window the process remained active and hogged the CPU. He realized that this file was problematic when playing the file in VLC threw up error messages, and some experimenting showed that whenever this file was selected in Finder he got this behavior. The reason it's associated with Finder, is that Finder attempts to generate preview images for QuickLook from the files. This may also happen for files in certain locations (e.g., one user conjectured that when problematic video files were located in either the Downloads or Documents folder in his Dock, the QTKitServer would launch to try to generate preview images from the files for Finder; since that process might be unsuccessful, either because these were partial files (e.g., incomplete torrent downloads), or corrupted files. One user claimed that moving the problem files to a different folder location solved the busy problems. (I think this must assume that he doesn't afterwards specifically select any of these files in FInder). Another user, who also didn't want to delete any files, handled this by opening Terminal, and typing in the commands: killall STOP quicklookd killall STOP QTKitServer This seems a bit of overkill, since this means that QuickLook and QTKitServer processes are stopped until the next time your restart your session, and you can't use QuickLook to sample any other files that aren't generating these preview image problems -- that is, you also can't QuickLook PDF attachments or music files if you want to just play samples without opening iTunes, and you can't use QTKitServer to play non-problematic files. I don't use torrents or do substantial video downloading, but if I were trying to fix this for FInder, and I didn't want to try to track down the problem files, I might try selecting a group of video media files on your media drive (e.g, hold down the shift key and select multiple files), then Control-click (where this means pressing the Control key and clicking your trackpad or mouse), and arrow down to Show View Options on the menu. (You should also be able to get to this option by pressing l a for Labels and arrowing up once.) Press return, and on the next menu, VO-Down arrow to the checkbox for Show Icon Preview and try unchecking it with VO-Space. I can't check this out, because I don't have any problem files to test this on, but this might work. It would probably be better if you could identify the problem files, but in case there are too many to check, provided your system doesn't come to a stop, you could try selecting multiple files and doing the uncheck of showing the icon preview for these all at once. If things get really bad, try stopping QTKitServer from Terminal with a kill command, then go and select the media files in Finder, and go through the process of trying to uncheck the Show Icon Preview checkboxes en masse. Then restart and see whether the problem has gone away. The restart should also restart QTKitServer, except it may no longer be automatically started up if the problem is the generation of preview icons from corrupt or incompletely downloaded video files. Note that I don't know how this will affect your ability to QuickLook these files with VoiceOver, since tag information about the artist and work is usually also written into the preview information, I think. Just some thoughts for you to experiment with. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Jan 10, 2011, at 20:47, Sarah Alawami wrote: Quicklook helper runs at about 120 percent for me some of the time and I have
Re: QTKitServer slowdowns associated with problematic video files [was Re: qtkitserver process]
Hi Yuma, As a followup to my suggestion to try unchecking the Show Icon Preview option in Finder, I realized that an easier way to disable this en masse is simply to use Command-J (shortcut for Show View Options from the View menu on the Finder menu bar), and then VO-Down arrow to the Show Icon Preview option checkbox in the menu and uncheck this with VO-Space. If QTKitServer is starting up because it's trying to generate preview icons for corrupt or incomplete video media files on your media hard drive, this will at least stop it from automatically firing up when you display directories with these files in Finder. And this method doesn't involve selecting any files at all -- it will work from a directory level (if this is, indeed, a solution). You wrote: My macbook was fanning like a ventriloquist every time i connected to my media drive in the network, snip So i checked activity monitor, the more logical explanation, and looked at the processes. The qtkitserver, short for quicktime kit server i guess, was running at a whopping 160% of CPU usage. snip I killed the process, but really wondering what the QTKITserver does in general.

Re: iPhone and iPOD Touch differences?
Hi Justin, You can't use an external bluetooth gps with the IPod touch. There is a specially made cradle for the Touch that gives you gps capability. And you can use Navigon, but many other helper apps like around me or where to require a connection, so you'd either have to plan ahead when you had wifi or go without and rely solely on Navigon or perhaps tom-tom. I haven't heard anybody mention using that one with the Touch. If you commute, having streaming audio with the 3g connection would be nice, I'd think. I don't have an IPhone, just a Touch, and not the latest one. So I can't comment other than on the situation with gps.

Now I have had little reason to call customer service in any case with either company. I will point out though Verizon made life very difficult for me when I opted to switch to ATT and tried charging me early termination fees even though my contract had ended. It took me a couple of months to get the issue resolved. So, a lot of this in my opinion is expectation about service and of course everyone will have different experiences and of course different experience with the service as a result of where they live. I have a Verizon cell phone for work and I get better coverage in my house with ATT then I do with Verizon, as an example. THe point is none of these companies are more interested in making as much money as possible. What will be interesting is if Verizon can live up to the hype. What I hope as a result of this is more competition in plans. For example, Verizon apparently is going to offer unlimited data to new iPhone customers and I wonder how long this will last. I would hope it would push ATT back to offering the same to current and new customers. Now I do have an unlimited data plan, but I always felt it was unfair to introduce such crappy plans at 200Mb and 2Gb for those price points.

Language was Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
I think it's pretty clear then that you've never had a gig.:) To say that the language in our department is salty is an understatement and that's not unique to my company or even profession. I've worked on the inside for everything from banking to medical and mostly Internet services / carrier businesses and they are universally that way. Look at expressions like RTFM or similar. When something goes wrong real humans don't say oh fudge or holy shnikeys. Further more in the business world this is very common. Sales droids trying to sell products to companies I have worked for have used such tactics as taking the engineers to strip clubs, excessive liquor and or combinations of these and worse.

bluetooth assistant
Hi all I took the big leap yesterday of purchasing a Mini Mac. Now comes the fun of learning how to use it. My only previous experience with Apple is using my iPhone which I love. The problem I have run into is that I didn't purchase a mouse and bluetooth assistant comes up automatically when I start and wants to find one. I found on google that you can disable looking for a mouse in advanced bluetooth preferences but how do I get there from within the bluetooth assistant. I can move around and see things like no mice found, but I don't see advanced in the assistant itself and the close is dimmed. Are there any good tutorials or podcasts I could listen to that would help me get started with understanding layout etc? Cheers Paula. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com.

Just hit control-option escape to open Force Quit. Vo-right arrow till you hear force quit, and as long as it's on bluetooth assistant, it'll shut it down.

Moderator note - Cussing and such -was- Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
Hey Scott and All; First off, -not sure you were intending to target me or the other mods with your post, but hey, I kind of need to speak for the group. So here goes. -My request has nothing to do with my blindness, and as to whether I'm a wack-job or not, well, I suppose the proof that I am, is that I'm still moderating this list and no one's paying me to do it! lol! so yes, I accept that one completely! -Touche! lol! Now, as I've said before, while I personally have no serious issue with language (within reason) I need to consider listers who do. -And yes, there are plenty and no, they're not wack-jobs just because they don't think the way you'd like them to. For myself, my request comes partially (as others have said) from a sense of demeanor for the list. If I go to audition as a guitarist with a bar band, then the F bomb etc won't make a bit of difference to me getting the gig. However, If I go into IMG or Ford Models (super nice peeps btw!) to chat with an agent, Guess what, a few F bombs etc are not only going to make me look like a total idiot, but I'd probably be asked to leave in short order and never, ever get work from them again! -And justifiably so… There's a time and a place for that sort of thing, and this list represents neither. :) Furthermore, the fact is that the people complaining the loudest over this and saying that others are acting like children, are essentially, themselves, stomping their little feet and whining about not being able to do every single thing they want, when they want to. -Sounds kind of childish to me… :) This list represents an intelligent community of friendly, helpful Mac users, Apple Enthusiasts etc. -And we, the list mods would really like to see this list continue in this vein. So basically, if you'd like to use more colorful language you have two options. 1 YOu can grow up, stop acting like spoiled little brats and learn to get along with the wonderfully wide variety of peeps here on this list. -And 2 You can leave. Neither the world nor this list will stop because you go away. :) -And, if the list does stop, then guess what, the web will lose a really good resource, and we the mods, will have a bit less work (and occasionally grief - like now) to deal with. -But another resource will eventually take its place, and the exact same issues will eventually come up again! lol! What I'm saying here is that this has happened before, will happen again, and is just not that big a deal. :) -Either we get along or we don't. It's just that simple. If we don't, then we eventually fall apart. If we do, then we have a great community. -It's not rocket science! Just show a bit of understanding and it can go a long way. :) Scott; I personally get where you're coming from. I do, and you have no idea of the kinds of 'passionate' language I've been moved to grace the world with sometimes. lol! -But just because I'm capable of such, would that make me somehow cooler if I went into a tirade here on the list, just to show that I can? Sure, I think it can be pretty freaking humorous and downright artful to here a very well-executed, extraordinarily long and colorful tirade, but the fact is that it really takes no skill to cuss. -and takes great skill to use language eloquently. -Cussing just for the sake of such, doesn't elevate you or those around you. -yeah we all do it from time to time. but this list is just not the place for it. K? -Very simple… So, it would just be a tremendous courtesy if you and others would simply consider showing a little bit of respect to the other people on this list whom may not think exactly like you do, and show the slightest bit of colloquial restraint? I hope for your sake, as the obviously intelligent people that you all are, that this really isn't truly that much of an imposition?… -Surely you can let any pent-up cuss-words fly in any number of other corners of the web rather than this one. Yes?… The list would certainly appreciate this. :) It's obvious we all have a lot to offer, and are passionate about it. This is good. Without that, this would be a lousy place. People's passions about helping others here, are what make this list continue on and grow. In order for that to continue to happen and to flourish, we need to be a community, all be it on the web. Yes this is only a mailing list, but it's what we bring to it that makes it rule! :) -Please be considerate of each other. Sometimes that might be letting an errant accidental cuss-word slide. -Sometimes that might be holding your tongue and taking a breath before writing. All these simple things (little thoughts in our day) go into making this a really cool group of peeps. So please just be nice to each other. K? :) Have a great day!… Smiles, CQ :) --- View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn Follow me on Twitter! https://twitter.com/ModelCara On Jan 11, 2011, at 9:48 AM, Scott Granados

Re: Good news about VueScan 9
Hi Chris: Funny you should ask. I just wasted a vast amount of time trying to figure out how to correctly tell the is program how to file things I scan, and getting ... getting ... back on my d*** PC.:) Ok, to be fair, I don't know that Vuescan does orientation, (such as page is upside down.)

Re: =What the Verizon phone means for Apple
You can but you have to jailbreak your device and use some special non approved applications. The verizon device will have this feature. That's a real edge. I'd almost switch for that but honestly I think the ATT network will be faster than VZ's EV-DO 3G system. I may jump ship on the IPhone 5 but for now I'm not wanting to take the hit in performance. If you want to do something similar you could use the Sprint Overdrive or 4G MyFi. Not sure if you live in a 4G city but it works quite well and provides WiFi access up to 5 devices.
