Voiceover disappearing and Audio Hijack update
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?

Re: Voiceover disappearing and Audio Hijack update
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
I've used both pop and Imap with Gmail and they both work.

Re: Permanently Removing Downloaded Apps From all Devices
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.

Re: voice over hints question
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.

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap
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 HTH, André On Jul 9, 2011, at 7:31 AM, Teresa Cochran wrote: I've used both pop and Imap with Gmail and they both work.

Boot Camp version question
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?

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap
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.

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap
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.

Re: lion
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. :) Scott On Jul 9, 2011, at 8:39 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: This is a great point Scott.

Re: Apple Mail or gmail, pop or imap
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. On Jul 9, 2011, at 2:31 AM, Teresa Cochran wrote: 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: lion
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.

Re: lion
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.

Porting qwitter to mac?
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 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

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

a couple of trackpad commander questions
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.

Re: itunes question
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.

Okay, got windows all installed thanks to my sited wife.

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?
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...

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?
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.

Re: a couple of trackpad commander questions
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.

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

Re: itunes question
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.

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

Re: configuration for VM fusion?
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 :-) André On Jul 9, 2011, at 6:33 PM, KliphSharrie wrote: Okay, got windows all installed thanks to my sited wife.

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?
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.

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 :-) André On Jul 9, 2011, at 6:33 PM, KliphSharrie wrote: Okay, got windows all installed thanks to my sited wife. The thing that is getting me, when I go to assign the ram and hard drive space, it's not showing me my choices in ram or GB's, it says something about 1024 MB and 32.26 percent. Is there a way to change this? 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?

errasing history items in the new Skype
Say, anybody got any notion how to erase history items or deal with them in the new Skype. Interacting with an item in the history seems not to be possible; nor is deleting an item. No short cut menu either. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

last fusion question, I hope!
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.

cleaning up mac?
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.
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.

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.

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.

BootCamp, so far so good.
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. -- Georges Zeinoun Timmerv. 6A, SE54163 SKÖVDE Tel: +46500201623, +46500482929 Mobile: +46707567315 E-mail: humorlessg...@samobile.net Email services provided by the System Access Mobile Network.

Re: [Bulk] Re: Will It Be Easy To Install Lion?
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? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: cleaning up mac?
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!
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.
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.
