Re: Create playlist in iTunes 10.5 in Lion

Just find such a message, interact until you find the correct button, and label it with something else. And of course, if you don't have a forwarded or replied message on hand, just forward or reply to yourself, to have the buttons appear in your inbox. :) *** John André Netland - Voice/SMS/MMS (+47) 971 68 794 Visit online at www.a-pro-studio.no *** On 24. okt. 2011, at 20:53, Bill Holton wrote: Thanks.

If there is a conversation going on, and you still have the previous messages stored, the number of new messages in the thread is shown. If there is only one new, the number will be 1. This way, you always know how many messages have been added to the conversation. This will vary a bit from your setup and use of Mail, but in general, this is a way to explain it. For the announcements, you have the ability to restrict much of what VoiceOver says in VoiceOver Utility. For example, you can go to the Verbosity category, choose the Speech verbosity tab, click the checkbox to show the detailed list of verbosity options, and find the Disclosure triangle control. Set this to Custom, and uncheck the Type checkbox. This will make VoiceOver only say the number, and if the triangle is open or closed. HOpe this helps!

Hi Denise, To add the Bcc field to a message you're composing, press the Customize Header menu button directly after the Subject field in a New Message window. As far as Always Bcc Myself goes, open Mail preferences with Command comma, interact with the toolbar and press the Composing button. Check the Automatically check box. It's the control directly after the Check Spelling popup button. The next control should say Cc: popup button. Press this button and select Bcc from the menu that appears. That's it!

Hi Denise! If you do need to remove some voice's in the future [or now] Someone suggested you can find them by going to, /System/Library/Speech/Voices.

Re: Skype again
Hi there! Well have Skype changed the lay out again! I'm running a 5.2 version and on mine in the online contacts when on a name I just have to arrow right to either instant message or video call or just call!

Re: steve Jobs in 1994.
I've just read the biography, too. I'm amazed he lived as long as he did. I also think the author was a bit harsh, pointing out that Steve Jobs wasn't into philanthropy — for me, he went one better, he aimed to make Apple products accessible to everyone. That attitude is much less patronising!

Re: accessible apps from the mac app store
I seriously doubt it, though I'm not 100% sure. I am not aware of an accessible Mac application for editing pdf files. There is a long-standing incompatibility between Mac an Adobe as regards accessibility. Teresa I'm a pantheist; I worship Pan. On Oct 29, 2011, at 2:09 PM, Eugenia Firth wrote: Hi Teresa.

Did Lion update break my mail behavior?
Hi all, Been away from the list for a bit and trying to catch up on my mail. I haven't seen anything thus far on the list about the Lion update I got when I checked my software updates. It was a 47 minute, 900 meg update that kept me up past my beauty sleep start time. grin Then, after getting back into mail today, I am unhappy to see that my mail messages behavior is changed. Before the update, and since I installed Lion, When I opened a message, VO would automatically start reading the message for me. No longer. After Lion says the word group, which I never heard it say before after opening up a message, VO goes silent and I am left at the top of the body of the email message. Has anyone else downloaded the Lion update? Does everything still work as expected like before the update? Now I know that some of you power users out there are scratching your eggheads, shaking them and saying: Johnny me lad, this is no biggy. But please understand that the only power this four month old baby MacBook Pro user demonstrates is pushin the old power button to turn Mac on! smiley Anyway, I would like to get things back to my expected normalness. Now, I had originally set up Lion mail to be in simple, non thread mode where, status, number, sender, subject and date sent were the only things I would hear when left and right VO arrowing on a closed message. This seems to be the same. Oh and another funny thing too: It seems that at least once in a while, two finger swiping down on the trackpad hadn't work either. I saw a couple of messages on repair permissions, so I took the wise advice and did just that. But after getting back into mail, nothing was changed. Well I said all that to ask two questions: 1. How can I tell what mode my Lion mail program is in? 2. Any other ideas on what may have happened to my nice mail reading capabilities and how I may go about fixing it?

Re: Did Lion update break my mail behavior?
Mail has a different default layout in Lion, but you can change it to classic layout in the viewing area of Mail preferences. Once you do this, it should behave as it did in SL. In the new layout, there are three panes displayed horizontally, plus a favorites bar that, once you add mailboxes to it, will open them with shortcut keys. I've actually started using the new layout successfully, and I do like the new keyboard shortcuts. But it's really a matter of personal preference, of course. HTH,, Teresa Visualize whirled peas.
