Re: watermarking photos
thanks for the help. will have to check if there is a mac version. no ipod, ipad, or iphone here. the problem is my site is commission based. the only way to make sure i get paid is to conceil the names and contact details of the owners. and if people are going to steal my pics and then post them on forums asking other people in the industry who owns the ride; then I'm in trouble. I don't think the watermark is a whole solution but a beginning.

I/o5 for iPad
Dear Listers, I have just upgraded my operating system on iPad to number 5. I've noticed first of all, to my distress, that Samantha's voice has been substituted with David. Can I have Samantha back? Secondly, I don't seem to be able to launch my applications like iBooks, Guardian, etc. I doubletap the icon and I can hear the sound of the application being opened but when I touch the screen or flick, I am still on the home pages where all my applications are listed. Is anyone else having similar issues? Is there anything I should read about regarding the new operating system? Thanks for your help.

Re: iTunes column browser
Yes, I checked my view settings. Although I'm not sure what you mean by checking it. Unless there is some specific setting I need to have, nothing seems to make any difference. I also noticed the same thing is happening with the iTunes Sidebar. If it says show iTunes sidebar it is being hidden, and remove iTunes sidebar it is being shown. Very strange.

Re: I/o5 for iPad
Hi Andrew. Got the same issue on my iPhone I'm using at work. Solution that worked for me was open settings and then go to store and check your apple id so there is the one you used when you purchaed the apps. If not, enter it and then go to appstore and do a check for uppdates. That solved my issue.

Also, I have seen around the web that people like the iOS5 update because they can read brf files more easily now.

I understand these days that the iPad has Pages on it. When I called up brf files on my Mac, I had to do a transformation in TextEdit to get the file to display in lower case so that dots 7 and 8 were not turned on for every single letter of sign in grade two. I looked n Pages and I don't see a transformation option to change everything to lowercase like there is in TextEdit. Is there one that I have missed or is that not necessary with the new update?

You can swipe, use the rotor (though speech comes on even if muted when you change the rotor setting, a bug I have reported a few times to Apple), double tap, select, mute/read with speech, control system volume, toggle the screen curtain, enter text, action a back button from anywhere on the screen, and so much more.

itunes burning a cd after purchasing
Dear listers, I just bought 2 albums from the itunes store. it is much easier to do than I thought it would be, even being a VoiceOver user. I would like to burn these to CD's. I googled and this is what I found so far. I need to create a playlist, add the tracks I want, and then burn. This works, but to do it right, you need to select exactly those tracks you want to burn. Isn't there an easier way to transfer the album in its entirety to a cd, because after buying, itunes knows which tracks it contains? Just wondering. Every time I work with itunes and I get to know it better as time goes by, I'm starting to like it more. What else could you do to organize a fantastically large library of music, films, podcasts and so on? I think Apple did a good job with itunes and making it so accessible on the mac, and it isn't bad either on windows. But for my question, just after purchasing, can I burn that right away, or is the playlist a must do, step?

I am not sure what you are trying to do here.

cannot seem to find samle book in ITunes library
, I obtained a sample book which, I suspect I would love to read. I have it on my Iphone and want to get it over to my Mac. I used Wify synch to synch my Iphone to my Mac, and, pressed the button in the file menu to transfer purchases from my Iphone to my Mac; but, now, I can't seem to locate the sample book I got. Could it be that I needed to check syncn books in the books radio button? IF so, I get the dialog which indicates that all books on my Iphone will be deleted and replaced with the content from my ITunes library. I did synch my Iphone without doing that. Could it possibly be that the sample book cannot be transfered from my Iphone to my Mac? I think it's in the EPUB format so once I actually buy the book, I can just maybe transfer it to my Stream and read that way. Any advice Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

Re: iPad and Bluetooth Braille Display
Hi Alex and others. You said you were not familiar with dots seven and eight. Some of us on this list discovered that that is how you acquire computer braille on the Mac in VoiceOver, by turning on dots seven and eight. By the way, this was not explained in the VoiceOver information as far as I can remember, and this should be explained because it was not obvious even to experienced braille users like myself. Dots seven and eight are used by many braille displays to indicate capitalization and control characters in computer braille. Dot seven appears right below dot 3. Dot 8 appears right below dot 6. The thing is, when you turn on dots 7 and 8 to get computer braille so you can read grade 2 files on the Mac, this causes, I found, all the letters and grade 2 signs to have dots seven and eight displayed in the file. On my braille display, I can turn them off while displaying in grade 2, so this doesn't happen. On my Mac, when I read grade 2 files, I have found it necessary for easy reading to do a transformation which means taking out all the uppercase. This works great in TextEdit. One of my options also is to read brf files on the Mac and do reports in Pages on the iPad. I have tried doing both on the computer, and find it a little bit time-consuming because of the need to go back and forth between files. Has anybody here been writing with Pages on their iPads under the new update? I have a few theories about how folks are reading brf files on their iPads, but unfortunately, I can't test it because I don't have a Focus 40 Blue. The person I was working with at Apple yesterday said I could test it, and that's great. However, I can't since I don't have one. Sorry for this being so long.

Re: Don,t understand braille status cells signs
Ioana, I don't have your particular braille display, but the purpose of these things is to give cursor position, line position, that sort of thing.

Hello, You can find out what the Braille status cells mean by pressing the router key above the cell you want to know about. The meaning of each dot is explained.

Re: iPad and Bluetooth Braille Display
Hi there. The way I had in mind would involve using the Mac and TextEdit and Pages to set up the file. It takes about thirty seconds to do a transformation in TextEdit to take out the uppercases. Then it could have all the text selected and saved out into a Pages file. That wouldn't take long all total, and it would only be worth it for a long file that you needed to have with you on your iPad. I guess that means you have to get Pages as an ap on your iPad? It doesn't come on there already? Gigi On Oct 20, 2011, at 10:14 AM, Alex Hall wrote: I see, and that is indeed strange.

Re: iPad and Bluetooth Braille Display
Pages is $9 U.S. in the App Store. I haven't noticed any accessibility issues with it on the IPod. Filer is a great app for IOS that downloads weblinks and displays, them in its own browser. It can play media files, display text (read brf files) etc. It's very handy. It's a few bucks (I think 3?) but well worth it in my opinion. It also works with Dropbox, but I haven't familiarized myself with this feature yet. Teresa I'm a pantheist; I worship Pan. On Oct 20, 2011, at 8:29 AM, Eugenia Firth wrote: Hi there.

Re: iPad and Bluetooth Braille Display
Good to know; I'll have to look at filer. I already have too many wordprocessing apps, so it would be good to find one that can do everything and get rid of some of these I never use. Nebulous has to stay, but other than that... On 10/20/11, Teresa Cochran vegaspipistre...@gmail.com wrote: Pages is $9 U.S. in the App Store. I haven't noticed any accessibility issues with it on the IPod. Filer is a great app for IOS that downloads weblinks and displays, them in its own browser. It can play media files, display text (read brf files) etc. It's very handy. It's a few bucks (I think 3?) but well worth it in my opinion. It also works with Dropbox, but I haven't familiarized myself with this feature yet. Teresa I'm a pantheist; I worship Pan. On Oct 20, 2011, at 8:29 AM, Eugenia Firth wrote: Hi there. The way I had in mind would involve using the Mac and TextEdit and Pages to set up the file. It takes about thirty seconds to do a transformation in TextEdit to take out the uppercases. Then it could have all the text selected and saved out into a Pages file. That wouldn't take long all total, and it would only be worth it for a long file that you needed to have with you on your iPad. I guess that means you have to get Pages as an ap on your iPad? It doesn't come on there already? Gigi On Oct 20, 2011, at 10:14 AM, Alex Hall wrote: I see, and that is indeed strange. I don't have pages on my iPod since I have heard that there are accessibility problems.

On 10/20/11, Eugenia Firth gigifi...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Hi Alex and others. You said you were not familiar with dots seven and eight. Some of us on this list discovered that that is how you acquire computer braille on the Mac in VoiceOver, by turning on dots seven and eight. By the way, this was not explained in the VoiceOver information as far as I can remember, and this should be explained because it was not obvious even to experienced braille users like myself. Dots seven and eight are used by many braille displays to indicate capitalization and control characters in computer braille. Dot seven appears right below dot 3. Dot 8 appears right below dot 6. The thing is, when you turn on dots 7 and 8 to get computer braille so you can read grade 2 files on the Mac, this causes, I found, all the letters and grade 2 signs to have dots seven and eight displayed in the file. On my braille display, I can turn them off while displaying in grade 2, so this doesn't happen. On my Mac, when I read grade 2 files, I have found it necessary for easy reading to do a transformation which means taking out all the uppercase. This works great in TextEdit. One of my options also is to read brf files on the Mac and do reports in Pages on the iPad. I have tried doing both on the computer, and find it a little bit time-consuming because of the need to go back and forth between files. Has anybody here been writing with Pages on their iPads under the new update? I have a few theories about how folks are reading brf files on their iPads, but unfortunately, I can't test it because I don't have a Focus 40 Blue. The person I was working with at Apple yesterday said I could test it, and that's great. However, I can't since I don't have one. Sorry for this being so long. Regards, Gigi On Oct 19, 2011, at 5:50 PM, Alex Hall wrote: I've never used brf on the Mac, so am not quite following why dots 7 and 8 would pop up all the time or what a transformation is. However, I can tell you that you now have contracted or uncontracted options, as well as an 8-dot option, all of which can be quickly toggled on or off. Also, I have seen around the web that people like the iOS5 update because they can read brf files more easily now. I am still stumped as to how people are reading brf files in iOS at all, but I have seen that it is better in iOS5, however one does it. On 10/19/11, Eugenia Firth gigifi...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Hi Alex. thanks for the info. Now I thought of another question. I currently have my Mac set so that TextEdit calls up brf files. I understand these days that the iPad has Pages on it. When I called up brf files on my Mac, I had to do a transformation in TextEdit to get the file to display in lower case so that dots 7 and 8 were not turned on for every single letter of sign in grade two. I looked n Pages and I don't see a transformation option to change everything to lowercase like there is in TextEdit. Is there one that I have missed or is that not necessary with the new update? I would need to read a lot of brf files if I did get an iPad and put braille on it.

VO F takes me, at least, to a google search box. Were I to type Download in the first forms field VO came to after pressing VO F, I would not get the same download link, but would rather be searching for the word download, throughout the whole web. The procedures would not yield the same results at all. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: itunes burning a cd after purchasing
Hi Paul and Nektarios, Paul, if these are your first purchases made with iTunes on your Mac, the tracks will already appear in two playlists that iTunes keeps the Sources table named Purchased (under the Store heading) and Recently Added smart playlist under the Playlists heading. The Purchased playlist contains all the (non-app) items you have purchased from the iTunes Store from your computer, listed in time order. The Recently Added smart playlist contains all tracks (excluding podcast subscriptions and apps) that were added to your iTunes library in the last two weeks. So an easy way to create a playlist of each album that you can burn to audio CD is to select one of these playlists in your sources table, then navigate to the search text field with the Command-Option-f shortcut, and type in the name of the album to filter the results to only include matches. If you now navigate to the songs table, you'll find either the purchased tracks or the recently added tracks that correspond to the album title you typed in. Use Command-A to select all, and then use Command-Shift-N to create a new playlist from your selection, and assign the playlist a name of your choosing. You can now burn this playlist to a CD by selecting the File menu from the iTunes menu bar and choosing the Burn Playlist to Disc menu option. Select the radio button for Audio CD as the format in the Dialog window. However, a better way to create an album playlist is to use the Column browser, as Nektarios suggested. Select your Music folder in the sources table and then press Command-B to toggle the browser on. Depending on what options you have checked for it to display under your View menu in the Column browser submenu, you can select alphabetically ordered matches to genre, artist, and album. The search text field filter matches all fields, but the column browser lets you find only album titles, or display all albums by a given artist, for example, by first selecting the artist and then examining the list of albums. When you select an album in the column browser, you can also use the Command-Shift-N New playlist from selection shortcut to generate a playlist. Furthermore, the tracks will probably be ordered the way you want them, without your having to sort them by album or track number. And if you want to find specific tracks within a selected Album or Artist field, you can also use the Search text field to type in additional search terms to match, which will show up in the songs table. As with all other entries in the iTunes sources and songs table, you can move to selections in the column browsers lists either by using your arrow keys or by typing the first few letters of the entry. Pressing another Command-B toggles the browser back again to hidden. The combination of the column browser and the search text field is a very powerful yet simple way to quickly locate content in a large music library, and will answer most of your needs. The next step up is learning how to create and use smart playlists, that let you apply rules for selecting your playlist contents, so that you can do things like create a playlist of all tracks by a given artist that were added to your library within the last 6 months, that you rated 4 star or higher, and that you haven't listened to within the last two weeks. You can also specify that the playlist be no longer than 30 minutes (because you want it to fit in the time for a gym workout), and to prioritize selection to those tracks that were least frequently listened to. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Oct 20, 2011, at 02:57, Nektarios Mallas wrote: I am not sure what you are trying to do here.

This works, but to do it right, you need to select exactly those tracks you want to burn. Isn't there an easier way to transfer the album in its entirety to a cd, because after buying, itunes knows which tracks it contains? Just wondering. Every time I work with itunes and I get to know it better as time goes by, I'm starting to like it more. What else could you do to organize a fantastically large library of music, films, podcasts and so on? I think Apple did a good job with itunes and making it so accessible on the mac, and it isn't bad either on windows.

For sale: iPhone 4
I am looking to possibly sell my iPhone 4. The ear piece has randomly stopped working on me, but the rest of the phone is functional as it should be. It will probably cost me to get the thing replaced because I don't have apple care or anything, so I might as well get the iPhone 4s. This phone is black, 16 gb, and for verizon coma. If anyone is interested, please let me know. Cody -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: bluetooth keyboard with iPhone and macbook pro
You may think the APple bluetooth keyboard is expensive; however, it is one of the better keyboards on the market and it will obviously work perfectly with the Mac and iOS devices.

(re)installing dropbox
Hello all, Since I had problems with dropbox the last weeks about files that weren't synced , I was thinking to (re-nstall dropbox. I was looking on the accessibility.net site for the procedure with voiceover and I was trying to install it: I toke a look at the package contents of the dropbox.app file in my applications folder and I fond there a binary-file dropbox in contents/macos/dropbox. After opening that file , dropbox, I had a terminal with no setup information. I am speaking about version 1.1.45. Any help would be very appreciated. If there are also others that have problems with dropbox and files that aren't synced, it will be also very interesting to know. kind regards William Windels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Basic item chooser question
Hi, VO F is Voice Over find. You are not doing a Google search. Pressing VO F and typing in characters allows you to find instances of those characters. So for instance, if you pressed VO F then typed Download, then enter, you would get the first instance of the word download on that page. Press VO G to find the next instance. I use this all the time to search for links, such as download and find it very useful; but if the item chooser works better for you then that's great. On 20 Oct 2011, at 19:11, Mark BurningHawk Baxter wrote: VO F takes me, at least, to a google search box. Were I to type Download in the first forms field VO came to after pressing VO F, I would not get the same download link, but would rather be searching for the word download, throughout the whole web. The procedures would not yield the same results at all. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Basic item chooser question
My mistake I confused VO F with Command Option F, which I usually do on the right hand of the keyboard. That would be my one complaint about that keystroke, its slightly awkward placement when touch typing. However, there's nothing inherently wrong with either method. When I use Items Chooser menu to find a download link, it will also announce the type of item I'm looking at--E.G., download.png, which lives next to the Click here to start download from SendSpace, link, for example, or if itself was a link, or a word within a text element, etc. Honestly, I've never used VO F for much, but will have to remember to try it when looking for things from now on--thanks. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Here's how I tried to punch it in: 5.13+5.13% but the percent sign doesn't work. So, I tried 5.13/3.6 Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here. Either it's an issue with the couculater or it's the way I'm trying to work the problem. Any advice? Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Re: Issue about iOS5 at iPhone4
I am also disappointed that they had to go and take that out. Why couldn't they leave well enough alone? A way around it is to go into reply and then select forward to get the message you want to copy into an edit field and then you can select all on that editable field. That is not IMO an excuse for the select all to not be there like it use to be on the read field, but it is a work around.

rosetta stonesand voiceover?
Hi all, In case you do not know what those are. Its a program for learning another language that totally submerges you into the process. Would the mac edition be voiceover compatible?

Re: bluetooth keyboard with iPhone and macbook pro
Hi, I just got a iogear multilink bluetoth keyboard for about 60 $. It is smaller than the appe keyboard and slightly more thought for windows layout. I can do basically anything wth it but I have small hands. The true winning feature fr me is that it allows fast swtchng between up t 6 devices. With a key stroke I can use t with iphone or mac or other computer. Don't know about battery life but love it s far. Haven't tried to remap modifiers but might experiment. An other nie thing is that it has a slighdng switch to turn on and off nd cmes with a carying pouch. Sorry for typos I am not using it as I wrte this in case you are wondering.

I text quite a lot from my iPhone and texting using a touch screen for long duration is strenuous and time consuming. I am planning on purchasing a bluetooth keyboard that works both with my mac and my phone. my questions: is there any other 3rd party keyboard that allows me to do both these tasks? I find the apple bluetooth keyboard quite expensive. if there isn't any other alternative, how is the apple bluetooth keyboard in terms of use with the iPhone and battery life? Your opinion will help me a great deal. Thank you. Cheers -- Venkatesh Potluri -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: rosetta stonesand voiceover?
Don't think you need VoiceOver for Rosetta. Had it on my iMac G4, running Panther, then upgraded to Tiger; and, cannot remember needing to use VoiceOver. But that was 3 years ago when it died in a dozen rapid-fire property lightning strikes. I believe that the CDs/DVDs (?) had its own voice. When trying to learn Dutch, I turned off the visual [spelling of the words] and just listened to the Dutch … learnt it much easier that way. Surely do miss my Rosetta Languages; but, don't think I'll ever be able to buy them again. They cost me way over $400.00 back in 2003! Good luck, have fun with Rosetta; and, please let me how it is working out for you. Would love to buy the discs again for my Leopard and Snow Leopard MacBook Pros!

IOS5 and IPhone4
Hi all, oppologise if someone posted this before and if its not related to Mac... I have Iphon4 and recently upgrate to ios5. I love IOS5. In some way i feel like i have a brand new phone with existing hardware. However, i found some issue with voiceover on IOS5. It seems somehow, voiceover losing focus on certain thing such as when selecting something, etc. Have anyone of us here having the same issue and how to solve the problem? I asume is something to do with the screen being unlock in one position? I had it lock screen for a while before ios5, but i prefer it to be unlock, as its easier when working on something when you need a lanscape screen e.g. reading a book etc. All helps will be very much appreciated Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
