Adium and an Ipod question
Hey all. The topic says it all. First, in Adium, is there a way to display contacts that are offline as well as online? And lastly, yesterday I bought a 5th generation Ipod Nanno. I didn't realize at first that it was touch screen, but whatever. I think I've nailed the touch screen stuff with Voice Over. My question is, will it harm the battery if I have it plugged in to the USB port on my Mac? I know it won't effect the battery on the Mac because I have it plugged in. Thanks.

mac book
Hi everyone! I'm thinking, about getting a mac book pro, and I heard that the web navigation is more difficult with safari, than what i'm use to with jaws, and windows. I'd love some opinions, and really enjoying the iphone as i do I was thinking about going with the mac. cheers gerry skype gerry.cook1 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: mac book
Hi Gerry. I'm a jaws user as well as a Mac user. I find that the ease of web navigation on the mac with Voiceover depends on your needs. its' different from the jaws method, but how good or easy it is is strictly a matter of opinion. there are certain times when I'm using a Mac that I wish Voiceover would navigate the web in the same way as jaws or window eyes, but that's rare and usually pertains to reading and handling programming code. I and others have written to Apple about this style of navigation and asked for it as one of the options/methods of getting around a web page. Apple' accessibility division seems to be pretty receptive to feedback, so I wouldn't be shocked to see this implemented in the future.

Re: mac book
Hi, As I am typing this response on my Mac Air, it has been three months since I took the plunge and bought it. I am a committed Jaws user since the early days. I use Jaws at work exclusively. I find the navigation of Safari somewhat less than that of Jaws. However, with time I have come to navigate web sites quicker and with more confidence. I am able to move through a site with the same ability as in Jaws. In the Journey, Ron On May 22, 2011, at 5:06 AM, gerry cook wrote: Hi everyone!

Re: mac book
Hi there, For me it was the most difficult part of my switching experience, but like with everything else my difficulties arose from the fact that I expected certain types of behavior and didn't get what I had expected:). It did take me about 4 or 5 days to embrace the differences and find new ways to do old tasks, however once that curve had been climbed, I use safari exclusively at home for all of my surfing needs.

Videos, iPad and Apple TV
Hi all, I am confused about how to arrange my Library with things that I have moved off my iPad. Let me back up and explain. My wife took some video of my daughter's concert the other night. I thought that I would be able to sync that video to my Mac and then use my Apple TV to play that video. It is in iPhoto but I cannot get to it from the Apple TV. I suppose that I can export it from iPhoto and import it into iTunes but I thought that I should be able to access both from the Apple TV. This double library seems messed up. Am I missing something?

Re: opening documents with attachments
Hi, If you've saved the actual eMail to the Documents folder, then when the eMail is opened in TextEdit, simply navigate to the area of the document where the imbedded file is announced and then VO-space on it. This will open the attachment. Otherwise, you'll need to save the attachments prior to saving the actual eMail message. In this case the attachments will thus be outside the eMail message and easier to locate. Later...

Re: Percentage of CPU for VoiceOver?
I would expect that Voice Over is very sluggish for you. Usually when something is between 93-110 percent CPU I have found that one of the threads of the process is in what computer scientists call Infinite Loop. Yes, I know that Apple HQ is at 1 Infinite Loop, but still this is not a good thing and the sometimes the only solution to this is a force quit or kill. My VoiceOver when working normally is at 10-15% CPU.

Re: Percentage of CPU for VoiceOver?
If you're talking about the number at the start of the table (like 106, 160, 240, etc) it's no the cpu usage.

Re: mac book
Hi, I just got my new Mac Book at the beginning of the month. *grin* I've always used Jaws or most recently NVDA once my Jaws demo ran out. I haven't had any trouble adapting to the new way of navigating websites. I actually enjoy it, most of the time. I have had occasional issues but those are to be expected learning a new operating system and screen reader.

Re: Adium and an Ipod question
Hey. Thanks to the person that replied last night, I've got the Adium thing about showing offline contacts fixed. Apparently it was turned off. Don't ask me why it was turned off, I never touched the view settings when I installed it. My next question for that is can you have it set to display email addresses after each contact, for example, my MSN address which is bigbigshawn@gmail.com? If not that's ok. And finally, thanks for correcting me about the Ipod Nanno. I didn't realize that it was the 6th gen that I had until you told me that the 6th gens have the touch screen. And also, I meant to say, will it hurt the battery if I left it plugged in for a long time after it's charged? Obviously I was either day dreaming or half asleep when I wrote that question, lol.

Re: Percentage of CPU for VoiceOver?
1. Generally the ID you mention is called the PID, to distinguish it from the UID or GID or PPID. 2. The Percent of CPU is percentage of a single processor. It is calculated by dividing the CPU used by a process by the time change since when the CPU was last checked, or the Process Start time. It can be greater then 100 percent if two conditions are met. 1. If your computer has multiple processors or cores. 2. The process has multiple threads. A thread is one way for a computer program to divide a task into distinct tasks. Voice Over probably has one thread for speech output one thread for receiving keyboard input , one thread for understanding a windows elements.

Re: mac book
I would not say it's more difficult, but it is a bit different. You navigate more by item than by line, if you've used the web on the iphone, it's very similar to that. Personally, I enjoy surfing the web on the mac. The only time there is a problem is if you need to access flash content, and that's Adobe's fault. I think voiceover is the best screen reader for handling dynamic web pages, these are pages that change their content when you click a link, but it doesn't load an entire new page.

Re: Adium and an Ipod question
With lithium ion batteries, they will not overcharge. When the charge is done, the charge circuit turns off. It's not necessary to totally discharge these batteries, actually they prefer to be recharged at around 40 percent or so. The one time you may want to do this is to reset the battery gauge, but you should only need to do that once every few months.

It's probably a good idea to run the battery down to around 5 per cent on occasion. But, leaving it plugged in should not damage the battery.

And lastly, yesterday I bought a 5th generation Ipod Nanno. I didn't realize at first that it was touch screen, but whatever. I think I've nailed the touch screen stuff with Voice Over. My question is, will it harm the battery if I have it plugged in to the USB port on my Mac? I know it won't effect the battery on the Mac because I have it plugged in. Thanks.

Re: Hurray for GarageBand!
Hi Ed, Thanks for the feedback. :D Sadly, I can't claim ownership of the song. The music is for a song called F**k You by Cee Lo Green. The words that I am going to add to it are parody words.

Re: Percentage of CPU for VoiceOver?
Hi Doug, I just checked my activity monitor, and it says my voiceover is using between 5 and 13 percent of my CPU. It seems to vary from moment to moment, but it hasn't yet gotten over 12.8 percent. I can't imagine what's making it go as high as 100 plus. Yikes!

Re: Hurray for GarageBand!
Hi Jes, Thanks for the kind words. The instruments provided with GB and those also provided with Logic are samples of actual instruments. I dug around and found the aiff files of the various instrument samples, and it appears Apple went to a lot of trouble to get really nice samples. Even though I find logic to be terribly inaccessible, I'm glad I bought it if only for all the new instruments it provided GarageBand. I use an MAudio Key Studio 49 USB keyboard to interact with the instruments. Friendly, Chris On May 22, 2011, at 8:17 PM, Jes Smith wrote: Nice job.

Re: Percentage of CPU for VoiceOver?
Hi Chris and all: Just took another look at the Activity Monitor and VoiceOVer is running at about 9 and 11 % and has 20 threads running. The number of threads seem to be based on how many windows are open at once. I conducted the following test. I have three programs running at the moment; Mail, Activity Monitor, and finder plus other services which are running in the background. The number of threads that VoiceOver is using at the moment is 20. In Mail I did a Shift+Command+a to open the address panel and took another look at the Activity Monitor. The number of threads increased to 21. So the results I am seeing here seem to show that a VoiceOver thread is opened for every window opened on the system. This makes sense since VoiceOver has to interact with every window that is presented by an application.
