Voiceover disappearing and Audio Hijack update

2011-07-09 Thread Chris Snyder
Hi Folks,
As some of you may remember, I noted that Voiceover did not begin randomly 
disappearing until I upgraded the system audio plugin on Audio Hijack. I used 
App Zapper to try to remove it, but somehow, the plugin or what it did to the 
system audio has remained in the system. Any ideas or observations?

Friendly,
Chris

Re: Voiceover disappearing and Audio Hijack update

2011-07-09 Thread Zachary Kline
Hi Chris,
I uninstalled Audio Hijack by moving it to the trash, but first used its plugin 
window to uninstall the plugins, as recommended by the documentation.  Thus 
far, I've not had a crash in over a week of frequent use.  Before, they came 
fairly regularly.
Hope this helps,
Zack.

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap

2011-07-09 Thread Teresa Cochran
I've used both pop and Imap with Gmail and they both work. I'm really liking 
Imap, because I'm using online labels and filters so I don't get tons of 
mailing-list messages on my IPod, and I can simply check whichever label I want 
to online.

Re: Permanently Removing Downloaded Apps From all Devices

2011-07-09 Thread Teresa Cochran
Perfect, Carolyn; thank you. I didn't even notice that apps playlist in the 
library. Then I had an adventure with the apps displayed, because I'd somehow 
gotten them into a grid view. Once I switched them to a list, everything went 
great. Thanks again.

 Hi Teresa:
 If I understand what you're asking here:
 All you need to do is to go to your apps table in iTunes, (the one from the 
 actually library, not the device).  Command delete on the ones you don't want 
 anymore, then resync should get rid of them from the iDevice.  I think You 
 can also keep apps in iTunes but have them not sync, by unchecking their 
 checkboxes in the apps. table.

I think I'm going to attempt the upgrade and also make a dVD in case it goes

Re: voice over hints question

2011-07-09 Thread Scota Bess
Hi

You can do VO and v and you get options for typing echo, numbers
verbosity etc which you move through with the left right cursor keys.
When you get to the one you want you use up and down cursor keys to
select the right value. return selects it and escape takes you back to
whatever you were doing.

Verbosity can be high, medium, or low. I suggest you just give each a
try to see which you prefer. It's so easy to change that you needn't
worry about messing anything up.

It's just like the VO and command thing which is how you adjust the
voice, which you may be familiar with.

Regards

Adrienne

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap

2011-07-09 Thread Andre Nuno Soares
Hello,

I second that.

POP is a protocol meant for the downloading of all the messages that the server 
as received for you, since the last time you connected. 
It has no notion of folders or message status.

IMAP was designed to synchronize messages between your mail client and the 
server, so it's perfect for sharing mailboxes across multiple computers and/or 
IOS devices, or to keep a permanent copy of all your mail in a server, as a 
backup, to also access it via webmail, etc.

There's a very useful article on how to best use IMAP, GMail and the Mail.app:
http://db.tidbits.com/article/10253

Boot Camp version question

2011-07-09 Thread Vince Mistretta
Well I'm taking the plunge and installing Win7 HP on my late 2009
iMac.  I've already reduced the size of my partition on my 1TB drive
to accomodate the other partition which went quickly and easily.

I was looking at the version of Boot Camp on my iMac and it's version
3.0.6.  Did I read somewhere that I should use 3.1 or later or will
this version be ok.

I found the newer version of drivers if necessary both 3.1 and 3.2
though I believe 3.2 version is only for the newest models.

My iMac cam with 10.6.2 installed and I have upgraded to 10.6.7.
Anything else I need to be aware of?  Is this the version of Boot Camp
with the Create DIsk problem?  Can the boot camp assistant be upgraded
to a newer version to safe guard from any potential issues?

Thanks
Vince

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap

2011-07-09 Thread Jon Cohn
If you like to keep your folder structure of e-mails the same on all of the 
systems  then IMAP is the only stand  solution.  POP just allows scanning, 
downloading and deleting of e-mails on your e-mail providers server.  Actually 
my first sentence is a bit off,  IBM and Microsoft provide Domino/Notes and 
Exchange/Outlook respectively which also synchronize items.  Both Domino  and 
Outlook also provide synchronization of contacts notes, tasks and todo lists in 
addition to e-mail.  The Macintosh Address Book, Calendar, and mail program 
have plugins that minimally support the Exchange protocols.

Now to your question of which to use...  If you will always read e-mails using 
the same client then it does not really matter. Only advantage to IMAP is that 
if your computer dies your e-mail provider has a copy of every message.  One 
disadvantage of IMAP if you do not go into  the deep configurations, is that 
the Mac mail client will only download partial messages when it connects to the 
server and then once you ask to read the message there is a usually slight 
delay while the Mac gets the rest of the message.  

Another case where you can use POP is when any secondary locations where you 
read e-mail, you do not care about any messages other then the most current.  

Best regards,

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap

2011-07-09 Thread Jon Cohn
Two more quick notes specificallly about GMail...

1.  In addition to the previously mentioned Tidbits.com article about using 
IMAP with GMail, there was a more recent series of three articles about how to 
handle large amounts of e-mail using the GMail web client.  The Web client 
updates things a bit too much, and by default it uses flash for uploading 
attchments, but I sometimes do find it quicker then my IMAP client.  It does 
however highlight an area where the Safari / VoiceOver do not work well with 
some dynamic elements.  A great example is the move message in the  when 
reading a message.  This brings up an edit box that I seem to only be able to 
find when I turn off cursor tracking.


2. GMail does support a  simulation of the Outlook protocol for use on Windows 
5/6 version cell phones.  If you are a user of Mobile Speak then I suggest you 
contact me off list if you want to know how to configure this.

this when you can just assign this task to a command with the keyboard 
commander or the trackpad commander?

thanks.

Re: Restoring files from a Time Machine Backup

But you can always just turn that off and backup manually.

 True. So it's a bit smarter about that then I described. Still the end result 
 of backing up multi-GB files from virtual machines can really reduce the 
 amount of history you can keep. My backup drive is 500GB so a full day of 
 backups was hitting 80GB plus whatever else I touched. A month of dailys 
 (about 20) would add another 200GB. So my backup set wasn't going much beyond 
 a month or so when it should have last much longer.

 This isn't quite correct.  Time Machine only keeps 24 hours worth of hourly 
 backups.  It keeps daily backups for the past month, and weekly backupsfor 
 as long as there's space to keep them.

This is a great point Scott.

I guess just doing an upgrade is fine, and if you see that your experiencing

make sense to go through the extra work if you don't have to.  lol

Re: lion

2011-07-09 Thread Scott Howell
Well now you know come to think of it, no pain no gain. :)
For those of you who have never upgraded, the process is very painless. You 
should not have any problems with VmWare or virtual machines for that matter; 
however, you are strongly encouraged to backup, backup, and backup. There are 
never any guarantees that something won't go wrong. There is sufficient 
information available to you for checking compatibility of software and 
hardware. If you fail to take these steps and you break something, you get to 
keep the pieces. I know it is tempting to just ask questions on the list, but 
you would do to conduct your own research as well. Information is power and 
best laid plans etc. :)

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap

2011-07-09 Thread Scott Howell
I will chime in and say that you should avoid pop like the plague. Most ISPs 
that offer pop only offer insecure pop, which is sending your password in the 
clear on port 110. Also pop just sucks in general since I have never seen a 
case where you remove messages from the server and they end up being downloaded 
on another device. This is in the case where you have mail accounts on more 
than one machine/device.
Use imap wherever possible and you will be much more satisfied.

RE: lion

2011-07-09 Thread Missy Hoppe
I think that's what I'm going to do too: just upgrade to Lion. If it works, 
great. If things start acting exceptionally
oddly, something which I might not even notice due to unfamiliarity with how 
mac is supposed to behave, then I can always
work out how to do a clean install at that point. I just really don't want to 
reconfigure things like Adium if doing so can
be avoided, and if upgrading will preserve my registration info for software 
like the infovox voices and VM fusion, than that
will be an added bonus. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens 
when Lion is officially released.
My youngest cousin actually works for Apple now, so I'll probably try to get 
his advice as well.

 Actually it seems that from what I have been hearing, more folks will be 
 performing the upgrade. I have considered this myself and I think what it 
 will come down to is how recently you installed SL.
 For example, I installed SL from scratch a few months ago because of 
 something (well um) something bad happen that was my fault. I  would think 
 that if one had been upgrading machines since Leopard and dragging all 
 their old junk along, it would be time to do a nuke and pave.
 I think unless some are really in tune with how to do a fresh install 
 (which means burning the DVD etc. for Lion) they might find the whole thing 
 daunting. WIll be interesting for sure.

2011-07-09 Thread Ricardo Walker
Hi,

Yes,  I assume you have an external drive?  You can make a partition with disk 
utility.  Just make sure the partition is formatted so it can be used as a 
start up disk.  Then you can just pop in your snow leopard dvd and install to 
the partition or, you can install a time machine back up to the partition.  
After you have snow leopard set up on the external, you can just switch OSs by 
going to system prefs/start up disks.

 work out how to do a clean install at that point. I just really don't want to 
 reconfigure things like Adium if doing so can
 be avoided, and if upgrading will preserve my registration info for software

 will be an added bonus. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens 
 when Lion is officially released.
 My youngest cousin actually works for Apple now, so I'll probably try to get

 I guess just doing an upgrade is fine, and if you see that your experiencing

 clean instal afterwards.  Doesn't make sense to go through the extra work if 
 you don't have to.  lol

Porting qwitter to mac?

2011-07-09 Thread Ashley Cox

Hi all,
For those of you who don't know, qwitter is a free twitter client, 
written in python. It's an accessible twitter client, but is only 
written for windows.

http://www.qwitter-client.net

Now to my question. For those of you who are experienced programmers, 
would anybody be willing to work in porting this twitter client to mac?

It's open source, and it would be awesome to see it on the mac platform.
I'm not a great programmer myself (i know very little python, as I tend 
to keep to web-related programming languages such as php). However, if 
any people are interested in working with me to port qwitter to mac, 
I'll contribute all I can to the project.


I don't know, maybe the qwitter devs are on this list...!

If anybody's interested, it would be awesome to work to get this awesome 
app on to the mac!


Ash

Copy that playlist and paste it onto the music, playlist, where it becomes a

a couple of trackpad commander questions

2011-07-09 Thread Donna Goodin
Hi all,

I've finally decided to spend some time messing with the trackpad commander, 
and have a couple of questions.

1.  Is there any way to view a list of commands?  when I go into the assign 
Commands table I can see the gestures, but none of the commands are displayed.

2.  How do I navigate in Mail?  Single-finger flicking takes me out of the 
messages table unless I interact, and if I interact, VO only reads the column 
that I'm on.  I'd like to be able to hear all columns like I do when not using 
the trackpad commander.

3.  How do I open a message in mail?  I would have thought you would do this 
with a double-tap like on the iPhone, but that isn't working.
Thanks,
Donna

Re: itunes question

2011-07-09 Thread Esther
Hi Denise,

When you insert a CD (e.g., for ripping) and this automatically gets selected 
in the sources list of iTunes, the songs table shows you the contents.  To save 
this as a playlist in your iTunes library, the fastest way is to navigate to 
the songs table while the CD is inserted and select all with Command+A, and 
then press Command+Shift+N (keyboard shortcut for New Playlist from 
Selection).  Those two keyboard shortcuts executed in succession will generate 
a playlist in your library.  You can accept the default name (which has artist 
and album) or type in a new one.  (I usually just want the album name without 
the artist as a prefix).

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

   I mean, everyone I ask says assign this much ram, this much hard drive 
 space, but fusion isn't showing it to me in ram or hard drive space, at 
 least not in the way I'm  use to seeing it.  Any takers for this one?

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?

2011-07-09 Thread Jonathan Chacón Barbero
Hello,

there are some problems to develop a ported version of Qwitter:

* keystroke management is very different in OSX than Windows... We have to 
rewrite all modules about keyboard
* window dialog management is very different in OSX. 
* there are few diferences in IO file system for OSX and Windows


well, I have a good news... I'm developing Blindtweet for OSX. It is a twitter 
client for OSX managed using keystrokes and it uses speech capabilityes to show 
the twiter information.
I hope finish it for september and it will be in the Mac app store

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?

2011-07-09 Thread Geoff Shang

Hi,

There's apparently been some work done on a mac port of Qwitter, but if I 
recall @Mongoose_Q's tweets correctly, there's some issue with keyboard 
intercepting on the mac which is making it a problem.


I don't know where there's any official status on this.  There's a mac 
list on the Qwitter Client website but it doesn't have any messages in its 
archives.


Geoff.

Which version of Fusion are you using?

When we fiddled with 3.1, we were able to change these things without much 
trouble, but I believe earlier versions had accessibility issues.

Re: a couple of trackpad commander questions

2011-07-09 Thread Esther
Hi Donna,

1. There's a section in the VoiceOver Getting Started Guide (Chapter 11 on 
Using VoiceOver Gestures) that describes using TrackPad Commander. Use VO-H to 
bring up the help menu and press g to go to the Getting Started Guide and 
return.  Open the web item rotor with VO-U and press g e s to get the two 
relevant sections (Chapter 11 and Appendix A listing the Commands and 
Gestures). If you want the list of standard gestures, go directly to Appendix A 
and navigate to the section on VoiceOver standard gestures. (I'd use VO-U for 
the web rotor and press s t.)  A lot of these will be familiar to you from 
using the iPhone, but there are some other ones like going to the dock or menu 
bar (two finger double tap near bottom or top of trackpad), or opening the 
application or window chooser menus (two finger double tap along left or right 
sides of the trackpad), and changing how VoiceOver reads text (word, line, 
sentence, paragraph) by pressing the Command key while your finger touches the 
trackpad, that are different.

2. I don't know of a way to get all the columns in the messages table announced 
at once with TrackPad commander.  

3. I press return to open a message in mail

I'm probably not the best person to answer your questions.  Maybe somebody else 
can give you better answers.  

Cheers,

Esther

 Hi all,
 
 I've finally decided to spend some time messing with the trackpad commander, 
 and have a couple of questions.
 
 1.  Is there any way to view a list of commands?  when I go into the assign 
 Commands table I can see the gestures, but none of the commands are displayed.
 
 2.  How do I navigate in Mail?  Single-finger flicking takes me out of the 
 messages table unless I interact, and if I interact, VO only reads the column 
 that I'm on.  I'd like to be able to hear all columns like I do when not 
 using the trackpad commander.
 
 3.  How do I open a message in mail?  I would have thought you would do this 
 with a double-tap like on the iPhone, but that isn't working.
 Thanks,
 Donna

 Hi Teresa:
 If I understand what you're asking here:
 All you need to do is to go to your apps table in iTunes, (the one from the 
 actually library, not the device).  Command delete on the ones you don't 
 want anymore, then resync should get rid of them from the iDevice.  I think 
 You can also keep apps in iTunes but have them not sync, by unchecking their 
 checkboxes in the apps. table.

Re: itunes question

2011-07-09 Thread Denise Avant
hi,
when i press command-shift-n, is there to be some sort of dialog box. i did 
select all my songs, and pressed the next keystroke and nothing happened.

On Jul 9, 2011, at 12:31 PM, Esther wrote:

 Hi Denise,
 
 When you insert a CD (e.g., for ripping) and this automatically gets selected 
 in the sources list of iTunes, the songs table shows you the contents.  To 
 save this as a playlist in your iTunes library, the fastest way is to 
 navigate to the songs table while the CD is inserted and select all with 
 Command+A, and then press Command+Shift+N (keyboard shortcut for New 
 Playlist from Selection).  Those two keyboard shortcuts executed in 
 succession will generate a playlist in your library.  You can accept the 
 default name (which has artist and album) or type in a new one.  (I usually 
 just want the album name without the artist as a prefix).

Formatting problem in Pages and Text Edit + Sharing with MS Word users.

2011-07-09 Thread Joshua Loya
Hello Folks,

I currently write a monthly column for my mother's web site, and I have 
unrelated projects I'll be submitting for publication in the very near future.. 
I'm using a Mac, and my mother is using a PC with Jaws. When I send her Word 
documents that I have created with Pages, many of the words get split between 
two lines. For instance, the word depression, is split between 'dep' and 
ression' on two separate lines. I also have similar issues with other word 
processing documents, n Pages and Text Edit, which I have written for my own 
use. The only writing software I don't have any trouble with is Mac Journal, 
Story Mill, and Mars Edit. I would really appreciate any advice you can 
provide. I originally got my Mac for use with audio production software like 
Pro Tools, but I would also like to use it for all of my writing, regardless of 
the platforms the people I am collaborating with are using.

Thanks much,
Joshua

 Hi Teresa:
 If I understand what you're asking here:
 All you need to do is to go to your apps table in iTunes, (the one from the 
 actually library, not the device).  Command delete on the ones you don't 
 want anymore, then resync should get rid of them from the iDevice.  I think 
 You can also keep apps in iTunes but have them not sync, by unchecking 
 their checkboxes in the apps. table.

Re: itunes question

2011-07-09 Thread Esther
Hi Denise,

Sorry about that, you're going to need to select the tracks from the ripped 
information that is in your iTunes Music Library in order to create a playlist 
for your Library.   After you've ripped your CD, you can find the tracks you 
just ripped if you select the Recently Added smart playlist in your sources 
table.  This playlist contains all tracks you've added to your iTunes library 
in the last two weeks (not including podcast subscription episodes), and is 
listed in time order.  So you can just select the tracks from your album in 
that playlist and create a regular playlist.  If you need to distinguish your 
current album from previously imported tracks in the Recently Added smart 
playlist songs table, just filter the displayed results by pressing 
Command+Option+f to go to the search text field textbox in iTunes, and type in 
part of the album name (it can even be part of a word).  Then navigate back to 
the recently added table, interact, and do a Command+a to select all (where 
all has now been filtered to only match the contents of your recent album).  
Then do a Command+Shift+N to generate a new playlist from your selection.  
You'll get a dialog box and VoiceOver will say New playlist from selection. 
Enter a name for your playlist. There will be a default name that is the 
Artist and Album, e.g. Vangelis - Chariots of Fire.  You can accept the 
default or type a name of your choosing for the playlist.

Using the Recently Added smart playlist always works to find recently 
imported items -- even when they are not properly tagged.  However, the usual 
way that I generate playlists for albums is to use the iTunes Browser (toggled 
on and off with Command+B) in my Music Library playlist.  This lets me select 
tracks by any combination of composer, artist, or album. After selecting the 
Music Library playlist in my sources table, and toggling on the browser with 
Command+B, I navigate to the browser (VoiceOver says playlist browser and 
interact. Then, in the browser, I navigate to albums and select the name of 
my album.  I can do the Command+Shift+N new playlist from selection shortcut 
here to create the playlist, but if you want to check that these are the tracks 
listed in the songs table, you can stop interacting with the browser and 
navigate to the songs table.  The browser is a more flexible way to find and 
create playlists for tracks, because I could decide to select multiple albums 
by a single artist and create a playlist for them using the browser.  All the 
methods of doing non-contiguous selection will work in the browser lists, too, 
so I can select an artist, then navigate to the albums column (which now only 
lists albums by that artist), and select albums that I want and use 
Command+Shift+N to create the playlist.  Toggle the browser off with another 
Command+B when you're done.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

 Hi Denise,
 
 When you insert a CD (e.g., for ripping) and this automatically gets 
 selected in the sources list of iTunes, the songs table shows you the 
 contents.  To save this as a playlist in your iTunes library, the fastest 
 way is to navigate to the songs table while the CD is inserted and select 
 all with Command+A, and then press Command+Shift+N (keyboard shortcut for 
 New Playlist from Selection).  Those two keyboard shortcuts executed in 
 succession will generate a playlist in your library.  You can accept the 
 default name (which has artist and album) or type in a new one.  (I usually 
 just want the album name without the artist as a prefix).

It's open source, and it would be awesome to see it on the mac platform.
I'm not a great programmer myself (i know very little python, as I tend

any people are interested in working with me to port qwitter to mac,
I'll contribute all I can to the project.

I don't know, maybe the qwitter devs are on this list...!

If anybody's interested, it would be awesome to work to get this awesome

RE: Formatting problem in Pages and Text Edit + Sharing with MS Word users.

2011-07-09 Thread Missy Hoppe
I'm interested in an answer for this as well. I don't think I've ever 
encountered the problem in text edit, but in pages,
words are frequently split between lines, and that bothers me a lot. I've 
looked everywhere for some menu or preference
option that would enable wordwrap or some sort of equivalent feature within 
pages, but haven't had any luck. So, at least for
me, I don't think word processing on the mac is practical. So, if there are any 
programs that you all would recommend that
are accessible and actually honor wordwrapping, I'd really love to hear about 
them. I primarily work with .doc, .rtf and .txt
files, and would like to be able to share them between the mac and pc if need 
be.
Thanks!

Hello Folks,

I currently write a monthly column for my mother's web site, and I have 
unrelated projects I'll be submitting for publication
in the very near future.. I'm using a Mac, and my mother is using a PC with 
Jaws. When I send her Word documents that I have

instance, the word depression, is split between 'dep'
and ression' on two separate lines. I also have similar issues with other word 
processing documents, n Pages and Text Edit,
which I have written for my own use. The only writing software I don't have any 
trouble with is Mac Journal, Story Mill, and
Mars Edit. I would really appreciate any advice you can provide. I originally 
got my Mac for use with audio production
software like Pro Tools, but I would also like to use it for all of my writing, 
regardless of the platforms the people I am
collaborating with are using.

Thanks much,

Re: configuration for VM fusion?

2011-07-09 Thread Andre Nuno Soares
HelloKliph,

I'm not using Fusion currently, but maybe the RAM configuration is just showing 
in megabytes instead of gigabytes?
1 Gigabyte (GB) is 1024 Megabytes (MB), so to give 2 GB of RAM to your VM, for 
instance, just specify 2048.
This has the advantage of allowing you to specify less rounded numbers, like 
1536 (1.5 GB).

Likewise, maybe the disk space is showing as a percentage of your free disk 
space. So, if you had 400 GB of available space, specifying 25% would mean your 
VM could at the most use 100 GB of disk space.


Hope I added to the solution, not the confusion :-)

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?

2011-07-09 Thread Justin Ekis
You know, I am a huge fan of qwitter, and it has done a truly amazing thing for 
windows twitter users. I'm still devoted to it, and still volunteer to maintain 
the Readme even though I'm almost exclusively a mac person now.

Having said that, I'm not sure I see why it is necessary to have a mac port of 
qwitter. There are several high quality mainstream twitter clients on the mac 
that work just great with voiceover. YoruFukurou has many of the features that 
I thought I would have to live without when I switched.

One big advantage of qwitter would be much harder to do in OS X, unless lion 
fixes a particularly annoying issue. You have seen this if you use the speech 
output of growl, or even adium's built-in speech notifications. Whenever some 
other program has something it wants to speak, whatever voiceover is saying 
gets interrupted. On windows, if qwitter wants to announce that a new tweet has 
come in, it waits for a pause in the existing output, such as a gap between 
sentences. The current mechanisms for speaking text on OS X do not seem to 
provide any facilities for doing this. This annoying behavior is why I don't 
keep adium or skype signed in, because I'd lose my place just to be told that 
someone came online. This would be a dealbreaker for qwitter.

last fusion question, I hope!

2011-07-09 Thread KliphSharrie
Okay, this might be a dumb question, but this experience is new  to me.  Does 
the drivers and utilities get installed the same time the OS  does, or do you 
have to fetch them from another disk?  Or perhaps download them yourself from 
the internet?  Reason I'm asking, is I installed windows 7 home premium and I'm 
getting no sound at all.

I thought I saved the messages regarding drop box, but I guess I deleted them 
in my mass delete. I could use some help. I'm trying to share my books folder, 
but it's saying the the each file is 0 bites which I know is not correct. What 
am I doing wrong, help help!!

cleaning up mac?

2011-07-09 Thread KliphSharrie
Okay, how do you defrag your hard drive?  And what other tools can I use to get 
rid of things I'm not using and have already uninstalled?  I am having an issue 
with my available space.  I had over 700 gb avialble before I tried to install 
windows with vm fusion, realized that I did somethings wrong, and deleted the 
entire vm, but my available space didn't return to what it was before I 
installed the VM machine.  How can I fix this?

Re: Formatting problem in Pages and Text Edit + Sharing with MS Word users.

2011-07-09 Thread Esther
Hi Joshua,

Hyphenation is automatically set to on in Pages, and to turn it off on a 
document wide level you need to go to the Inspector in the toolbar, then select 
(VO-Space) the Document radio button (first entry), and on the Document tab 
(1 of 3) you'll find a checkbox for Hyphenate that you should uncheck.  I set 
this up quite a while ago, and couldn't remember exactly how this worked, since 
I don't use Pages that often.  So here's the pasted in information from Apple's 
Help and the web page source URL:

• Pages 4.0 Help: Using Automatic Hyphenation
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Pages/4.0/en/sl1503c622.html 
begin quote
Using Automatic Hyphenation

By default, Pages automatically hyphenates words if they need to break at the 
end of a line.

Here are ways to turn hyphenation on or off:
• To turn hyphenation on or off for the entire document, click 
Inspector in the toolbar, click the Document button, and then select or 
deselect Hyphenate (in the Document pane).

• To turn off hyphenation for a particular paragraph, select the 
paragraph, click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Text button, click More, 
and then select “Remove hyphenation for paragraph.”

• To turn hyphenation on or off for a word, click the word while 
holding down the Control key, and then choose Never Hyphenate or Allow 
Hyphenation from the shortcut menu.

Turning hyphenation on or off for a word will affect every instance of that 
word in your document.
end quote

Also, since you mention routinely converting your Pages documents to Word 
documents, you might be interested in an AppleScript that will batch export any 
selected Pages documents to Word format.  Yuma asked  whether there was 
something like this on the list at the beginning of the year.  The Mail Archive 
site for this list has a wonderful search feature, so typing in Yuma pages 
convert brought up the post right away.  I'll paste in the relevant 
information:
begin quote
A Google search turned up the following source from MacScripter (subject was 
Pages 09 export as word doc):
(From Yvan Koenig):

Go to my iDisk :

http://public.me.com/koenigyvan

Download :
For_iWork:iWork '09:for_Pages09:batch_exportPages2DOC.zip

Yvan KOENIG (VALLAURIS, France) 

According to the instructions you can run this and select the folder 
of Pages documents you would like to batch convert to .doc format.
end quote

You can save the AppleScript to the Library/Scripts folder of your home 
directory.  Then you could select it from the AppleScripts menu on your status 
menu bar.  When the script runs, you would select a folder with documents in 
Pages format.  The script creates a second folder named was_old 
name_now_Doc with Word formatted versions of the same files.  The easy way to 
use this would be to assign it a keyboard shortcut of your choosing under 
System Preferences  Keyboard under the Keyboard Shortcuts tab.  But this is 
only something to consider if you create lots of Pages documents and want to 
batch convert all of them at one time. This isn't something I use myself.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

 Hello Folks,
 
 I currently write a monthly column for my mother's web site, and I have 
 unrelated projects I'll be submitting for publication in the very near 
 future.. I'm using a Mac, and my mother is using a PC with Jaws. When I send 
 her Word documents that I have created with Pages, many of the words get 
 split between two lines. For instance, the word depression, is split between 
 'dep' and ression' on two separate lines. I also have similar issues with 
 other word processing documents, n Pages and Text Edit, which I have written 
 for my own use. The only writing software I don't have any trouble with is 
 Mac Journal, Story Mill, and Mars Edit. I would really appreciate any advice 
 you can provide. I originally got my Mac for use with audio production 
 software like Pro Tools, but I would also like to use it for all of my 
 writing, regardless of the platforms the people I am collaborating with are 
 using.
 
 Thanks much,
 Joshua

BootCamp, so far so good.

2011-07-09 Thread Georges Zaynoun

Hi,

Yesterday evening I made two installations of windows xp one on the 
imac mc508 and that was the English version and another on the mac mini 
and that was the Swedish version.  Must tell everybody to my surprise 
the mouse and keyboard that came with the imac worked all the time 
during xp setup, no need was necessary to a chorded input device.  The 
drivers worked like a charm on both units and I used oem version in 
both cases never installed any screen reader or the like.  I am 
expecting to try install windows7 later today and hope all goes well, 
the only thing I had to bypass were some error messages on second 
reboot of xp so just pressed enter twice or thrice, so long.

Re: [Bulk] Re: Will It Be Easy To Install Lion?

2011-07-09 Thread Kevin Gibbs
I've also discovered that my 2010 Mac Mini, which I bought to learn VO
last December, only has 2GB of RAM.  Do I have to upgrade to 4GB of
RAM to run Lion?  And, do I have to find my iWork disc to reinstall
after Lion?  What about migrating mail, docs, etc?

Normally you won't need to defrag the drive on OSX. Just to check the 
basics, did you empty the trash after you got rid of the virtual machine?

Re: last fusion question, I hope!

2011-07-09 Thread Chris Blouch
VMWare installs something called VMWare Tools after you have installed 
whatever Windows or Linux OS you wanted. These tools make the 
video/audio/mouse etc. hook in better with the Mac. It's been too long 
since I did a Win7 scratch install but I suspect that until the VMWare 
tools are installed you may not get audio.

Re: ASF streaming format won't play in anything I have.

2011-07-09 Thread Chris Blouch
Generally having Flip4Mac installed will allow QT to handle .asf streams 
unless they are encrypted (DRM). In that case Microsoft has not released 
their stuff on Mac so it can only be unencrypted on Windows. The joys of 
proprietary copy protection.
