VoiceOver users cannot create nice neat tables in Pages. We have to do it in 
Numbers and paste the table into the Pages document. We can only read them in 
Pages if we can locate the tables, highlight them and use the Format menu 
command Convert table to text. I prefer to read documents containing tables in 
TextEdit. However, we can produce very professional-looking documents with 
Pages.

Have you looked at Applevis for information on accessible applications? It's a 
very useful resource.

I can't help with the application for recording as I don't do that.

question about a braille display

2012-07-05 Thread Eugenia Firth
When I went to the exhibit area at NFB, I went fully expecting and maybe 
interested to buy the new Focus 40 Blue. However, I found that my hands are too 
small to type on it comfortably because the spacebar is separated from the 
other keys by the display. I did find another display that I like and doesn't 
have this problem. It is a Braille Edgde 40
from Hims. They told me, after I told them I didn't want any display that 
didn't work under VoiceOver, that it will run under Mountain Kitty and 6.0. It 
also has a note taker option so you can put brf files in it and write files. I 
specifically asked about brf files. It costs the same as the Focus 40 Blue, and 
the Focus 40 Blue doesn't have the ability to take files into itself. Since 
this thing worked first under Windows, has anybody on this list used it before 
and did you like it?

Press VO F2 to hear the current window. Press it again to open the window

When I interact with the drawer in YoruFukurou, sometimes it displays

At other times, it just says n/a.
So, how can I open a particular user's information in the drawer?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Sandi. 
I will tell you that the book page they had scanning was extremely good. I was 
considering going back to the hotel to try it on a textbook, but I never have 
gotten back to do it. The gentleman there, whose name is Igor Feinberg, said 
there is a 30 day money-back return policy. He gave me a card with the 
company's information on it. He was passing them out at the exhibits, so here 
is the information on it. The phone number of the company is 978-635-0202. I 
called this number, and the lady was more than happy for me to tell this list 
the number.

Re: VoiceOver saying, Busy, Formatting in Pages, and recording on the Mac

Hello,

Regarding recording, Garageband does work very well. Once you create a proejct, 
just press r to start recording.

I have also started using Podcast Publisher for simpler things where I don't 
need to mix tracks together, and it is very easy to use.

Thanks,

 Hi all,
 
 This is my first time posting to this list, and it's nice to have a community 
 of users to discuss things with.  Since I have three very distinct areas to 
 discuss, I will divide them up.
 
 First, has anyone noticed VoiceOver saying busy in certain programs, but 
 when Voiceover is turned off all is fine?  It is as though VoiceOver is 
 hanging programs, or causing itself to hang.  I have 4gb of RAM, which I 
 thought would be enough.
 
 Secondly, I use a BrailleNote 32 cell with Voiceover running Lion 10.7.4, and 
 I wondered if anyone else has noticed how VoiceOver skips lines when reading 
 in Pages and Mail, but oddly, not in text edit or on the Internet.  Sometimes 
 it seems as though full screen will help, but since I read on a daily basis 
 in Spanish, it would be nice if there were a way to stop this behavior so I 
 could be confident.
 
 Going back to Pages, I am curious if anyone has had success with creating 
 tables in pages in order to put information (such as columns with words and 
 definitions, dates and events, etc)?  It doesn't seem to work for me.  I can 
 do it in Numbers, but VoiceOver is way too chatty.  I would much rather hear 
 it say, a1, b1, c1, etc instead of a1, selected cell, blah blah blah, a1.
 
 I am also interested in any free recording solutions available for the Mac.  
 I've heard that Garage Band works, but it seems complicated.
 
 I will apologize in advance for all of my questions; I merely had never had 
 anyone to ask these questions of who may actually know.  Anytime I call Apple 
 Care, it is a struggle to have them transfer me directly to the Accessibility 
 department instead of some specific product area, and no one ever seems to 
 know what I'm even talking about.
 
 Thanks, guys, and take care.

Re: what Voiceover bugs people want or are hoping will be fixed or squashed in Mountain Lion?

2012-07-05 Thread Blinkin
Here is something I want fixed.
Every now and again when I use the Force Quit Application thing the 
window will stay open after it closes the application.
I can't command tab to the screen and can't interact with it at all but 
my wife will say it is covering my screen. 
Pretty annoying.

 Interesting, because I'm the opposite. I would rather use eloquence and I
 would rather use male voices than female. I guess it all comes down to
 personal taste in the end.

 12 years or so, but on the whole, I think Eloquence is seriously 
 over-rated. True, it's the only thing I use on the PC side, but that's 
 out of necessity, not because I find it pleasant or anything. I don't 
 use the RealSpeak voices on the mac either, though. I even bought the 
 acapella voices, but still find myself only using Alex as a general 
 rule. So, while I can see both sides of the coin on the eloquence 
 thing, it's nothing I'd get all excited about if Apple ever incorporated
 it. In most cases, Alex is responsive enough for my needs on the mac. I'd
 love to see a female equivelent of Alex, though. Alice, perhaps? It's just
 that when it comes to those higher quality voices, I find the female ones
 slightly easier to understand in most cases.

 eloquence 100% is for me. If I had this, then I wouldn't be using 
 windows anymore there's something about the voice that I can listen to 
 it and I don't get tired of it. I have a hearing impairment and find 
 it is more clear understandable in words than these silly nuance 
 voices. I don't want that to be offending to anyone who uses the nuance
 real speak voices but for me, I just don't understand them clearly, to slow
 no matter how much I speed them up I can't understand them when they are
 really fast anyway and lastly too slow even when I can follow them.
 Ohand caps lock gets my vote too.
 If the day comes where Apple have eloquence added to the list of VO 
 voices, will be the day where I differently upgrade my OS!
 
 How do others feel about eloquence being added?
 You got me started on this one! LOL

Re: Hazel Help.

2012-07-05 Thread Darcy Burnard
Hi.  Love Hazel, been using it for years.
Basically the way you set up a rule in Hazel is the same way you set up a rule 
in Mail, or a smart playlist in iTunes.  Once you've set up a condition, you 
can press the menu button to add another condition.
You can filter based on the kind of file, or its extension.

Speeding up internet access in Lion

2012-07-05 Thread Chris Moore
I came across this very useful master class on Macworld UK.  It contains some 
very useful tips.

Macworld Masterclass

Intro

Speeding up your systems isn’t just about tweaking the operating system. For 
many of us, the mains applications and storage we use are now in the cloud. 
Whether that’s iCloud, Dropbox, Google Docs or any number of social media and 
productivity services - that’s the direction app provision is going in.

To get the best response from the apps you use, you need a steady, stable 
connection. You need a web browser that’s optimised and running at full speed. 
You need email that’s reliable and quick. You need our tips for making all 
these things work faster.

These three - connection, browser and email - are the trinity of network 
computing. Optimise these for speed and the rest will fall into place.

We show you how to improve the response of these features in Lion. In some 
cases we even suggest faster replacements for the defaults supplied with OS X.


Step 1: Change the Channel

Dropped connections? Channels 1, 6 and 11 are the most widely used wireless 
broadband and conflict between them causes interference. Try another WiFi 
channel to avoid this. Use your ISPs instructions to log in to the 
configuration screen from your web browser and find the wireless settings, then 
select a different channel - 3 or 8 may give better results.


Step 2: Reduce the Guesswork

Don’t want to guess which wireless channel is least cluttered in your area? 
Fair enough. There area a number of apps you can use to determine which WiFi 
channels are active in your vicinity. We currently like AirLock It’s pretty top 
look at, simple and free - but it’ll only work if your Mac, connects to WiFi 
using AirPort.


Step 3: Eke out Speed

Your router is probably configured to work in mixed mode, talking to legacy 
devices as well as those that understand contemporary WiFi protocols. You can 
eke out more speed by logging into your router’s control panel and setting your 
WiFi’s WLAN settings to “G only” - or “N only” if your equipment’s up to it.


Step 4: Fixed IP

You can speed up network connectivity by specifying a fixed IP address for your 
Mac. Go to System Preferences  Networking and select AirPort (or Ethernet if 
the connection is wired).  Click Advanced then TCP/IP. Make a note of the 
currently assigned network settings. Choose “Manually” from the “Configfure 
IPv4” drop down.


Step 5: Entering Details

For IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router, enter the numeric addresses you noted 
down at the previous stage. In the DNS section enter 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 - this 
will use Google’s open DNS lookup service, which is faster than most ISP’s. 
Click Apply to enjoy your new, faster and more stable settings.


Step 6: Corrupt Plug-ins

Safari plug-ins can make your browser slower than a Slow Loris. Conflicts, load 
times, connectivity issues - who needs them? You can troubleshoot plugins by 
going to the Preferences in the Safari menu, clicking the Security tab, then 
unchecking “Enable Plugins”. Restart Safari to see if your slow browsing issues 
have been fixed.


Step 7: Deleting Extensions

Did that work? A plug-in could be the culprit if it did. You’ll find plug-ins 
for Safari in the folder: ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins. This location contains 
plug-ins available to all users. You should also look in the Library/Internet 
Plug-Ins in your user folder.  Trash plug-ins you don’t need first, then 
restart Safari, If you’re in luck, then you should be up to speed.


Step 8: Top Sites

Safari’s Top Site feature creates a screenshot of every site you’ve visited and 
stores. After a while, the footprint of those stored screenshots can get pretty 
big and Safari has to search through the folder every time it starts up, adding 
valuable seconds onto your browser’s boot up time. The solution? Disable 
preview caching.


Step 9: Stop Sites

Open up Terminal and type ‘touch desktop/Webpage\ Previews’. This creates a new 
folder on your desktop. In Finder, browse to ~/library/caches/com.apple.safari 
in your user folder. Delete the Webpage Previews folder that’s currently there 
and replace it with the new version. No more preview caching.


Step 10: Clear Cache

Corrupt cookies, broken cached images, bad passwords - any and all of these can 
slow down your browsing experiences, so why not just zap the lot of them.  Go 
to the Safari menu and choose “Reset Safari”. A menu full of stuff to remove 
appears. Picking “Remove all Website data” deletes cookies and cached files.


Step 11: Change your Browser

Sure, Safari’s fast - but is it as fast as Chrome? Most tests suggest that the 
Google app has a slight edge over Apple’s default Internet browser. They’re 
both similar in terms of HTML and CSS support, but we find Chrome’s a bit 
speedier when it comes to AJAX and JavaScript powered sites. Give it a try.


Step 12: 32 Bit Mail

Mail causing problems post-Lion? Here’s a widely reported fix. Find the Mail 
app in 

one to one

2012-07-05 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi Guys. 
I didn't know you could do this. I just got an email from Apple saying I could 
renew you One to One for another year. Say, with Mountain Kitty coming out, do 
you guys think it's worth doing it or not? I have until July 19. They taught me 
so well this year and I learned so much from this list, that I don't need it in 
Lion.

Burning playlist to disc in iTunes keeping original order

Hi all
I'm trying to burn a playlist to disc in iTunes but each time it burns
the mp3 disc with the songs in alphabetical order and not the order of
my original playlist. I googled it and it looks like there's a way to
let it burn in the original order but problem is the post is not verry
helpfull. It says you must click on the sort by songs button or
something, but I'm not seeing a option like that anyware, I even asked
some sighted assistance to look but they also can't find it. O and I
have the latest iTunes version.

Hi.

I found an artickle on www.indexbraille.com that describes how to imboss in

we will have to use from libre office was both inaccessible. E2u is not 
accessible at all. That is really anoying, because if that had worked, we could 
use a danish service called www.robobraille.org for preparing our documents

Now to my question. Would it be possible to print a pef file by using the 
command line.

I hope someone can help.

 I'm pasting in the reply I gave Teresa three months ago about how to change

 email address you want to use for receiving list subscriptions for all 
 mailing lists that you subscribe to via Google Groups.  This and related

 I personally use the search facility of the Mail Archive site to find these

 the viphone list, since it has the information on changing email subscription 
 options, too.
 
 The mail-archive page for groups that are archived there is simply the 
 posting address appended to the www.mail-archive.com address, so for 
 macvisionaries the URL is:
 http://mail-archve.com/macvisionaries@googlegroups.com
 and for the viphone list the URL is:
 http://mail-archive.com/viphone@googlegroups.com
 
 I also use these web pages to read the list contents if I am traveling.  If I 
 am using an iOS device, I can type my search term in to the text box and 
 press enter to find results, and then copy the URL of the relevant post to an 
 email reply.  If I am at my computer, I can read up and down the threads with 
 access key combinations (Control-n for next message and Control-p for 
 previous message in Safari on a Mac; for other browsers and platforms 
 substitute the appropriate access key prefix -- such as Alt-n and Alt-p for 
 Internet Explorer, or I think it is Alt-Shift-n and Alt-Shift-p for Firefox, 
 etc.)

 Hi Teresa,
 
 You can find a single page listing of all the Google Groups you belong to 
 using the URL:
 http://groups.google.com/groups/mysubs?hl=en_USpli=1
 This page has the entries for Manage My Memberships.   There's a link to 
 My Google Account that will let you change your email address, password, or 
 nickname.  Continue to navigate through the page to find your entries, which 
 are form controls, for each one of the Google Groups you subscribe to, with 
 your nickname, and pop up menus for your email address and subscription type. 
  Here you can change your subscription options, for example, to No email, 
 Digest email, Abridged email, or Unsubscribe.  For some of the other 
 options, you have to use the My Google Account link.  The pop up menu for 
 changing your email to an alternate email address on this page only works if 
 those alternate email addresses are available from your main My Google 
 Account settings -- you can't type in a new option directly on this page for 
 managing your settings if you're entering completely new information for your 
 account.  But you can visit this page to turn off email temporarily while 
 you're away on vacation, or opt for the digest format.  And if you want to 
 shift the list subscription email to a different email, you can visit the My 
 Google Account link, make the changes and add other valid email addresses, 
 and then come back to this page and set the pop up menu for that address.
 
 If you are not logged into your Google Groups account, when you try to use 
 the URL link for managing your membership settings, you'll be prompted to log 
 in with your email address and password.  The email address you type in here 
 is the email address you used when you created your Google Groups account.  
 It does not have to be a gmail address, and it may not be your current email 
 address.  The current email that you want to use by default is one of the 
 account settings that you can change in this process, if you use the My 
 Google Account link on the page for managing your membership settings.  
 
 To log out from your Google account, you need to navigate to the menu pop up 
 link that has your name.  (This is in the old Google Groups page layout, so 
 it might be different for you.)   You could use item chooser menu (VO-I) and 
 type in your name (e.g., Teresa), then navigate to the first match in the

Re: embossing on the mac with lion

2012-07-05 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi Eric.

I tried this app too, but I do not seem to be able to open this app too.

We need a mac app, that makes embossing possible.

I will try to contact both braille blaster and e2u, to find out if I can solve 
the problems.

Best regards Annie.

 that we will have to use from libre office was both inaccessible. E2u is not 
 accessible at all. That is really anoying, because if that had worked, we 
 could use a danish service called www.robobraille.org for preparing our

 Now to my question. Would it be possible to print a pef file by using the

Re: Changing list email address and subscription options [was Re: How to stop receiving mail from the list without unsubscribing?]

2012-07-05 Thread Esther
Hi Daniel,

If you're reading my post in mail on your Mac, when you're focused on any part 
of the link that I gave:
http://groups.google.com/groups/mysubs?hl=en_USpli=1
bring up your contextual message with VO-Shift-M, arrow down to the Open Link 
option and select it by pressing return.  This will open the linked web page in 
Safari and change your focus to that application. You can Command-Tab to switch 
back to the Mail app if you want to keep reading your mail, or you can choose 
one of the other contextual menu options, such as Open link in background 
which will open Safari at the linked address but not switch your focus to 
Safari, or Copy link which will let you paste in the link with Command-V into 
another location, such as your own notes.  You could also create a bookmark of 
the location in Safari with the Command-D shortcut.

Remember if you are not already logged into your Google Groups account that you 
will first be taken to a login page, and will need to enter your login (which 
is the email address you used to create your Google account) and password.  You 
should leave QuickNav mode so you can enter your login and password information 
in the text boxes. 

HTH.  Write back if you have questions.  It's also possible to do this from an 
iOS device -- if you're reading mail on an iPhone or iPad, just double tap on 
the link or activate it with your Bluetooth keyboard to bring up the link in 
Safari, and follow the instructions for changing your mail options.  You just 
get a picker item instead of a pop up button, and change the value from Email 
to No mail for your macvisionaries settings. 

Cheers,

 The mail-archive page for groups that are archived there is simply the

 macvisionaries the URL is:
 http://mail-archve.com/macvisionaries@googlegroups.com
 and for the viphone list the URL is:
 http://mail-archive.com/viphone@googlegroups.com
 
 I also use these web pages to read the list contents if I am traveling.  If 
 I am using an iOS device, I can type my search term in to the text box and 
 press enter to find results, and then copy the URL of the relevant post to 
 an email reply.  If I am at my computer, I can read up and down the threads 
 with access key combinations (Control-n for next message and Control-p for 
 previous message in Safari on a Mac; for other browsers and platforms 
 substitute the appropriate access key prefix -- such as Alt-n and Alt-p for 
 Internet Explorer, or I think it is Alt-Shift-n and Alt-Shift-p for Firefox,

Re: Hazel Help.

2012-07-05 Thread Emilio
For those unfamiliar with Hazel, it is a file manager application.
Like Darcy indicated, you can set various conditions for particular
files or folders, and once those conditions are met, the specified
result will be automatically executed.
I understand the concept of assigning particular conditions to certain
folders. However, I am slightly confused when assigning certain
conditions because either my rules are not performed, or my rules are
performed, but include other data that is not desired.
For example, I select my downloads folder as the source from which
Hazel will monitor and move only .mp4 files to the automatically add
to iTunes folder, but this does not happen, or when changing the all
to any conditions includes other data. This similar result occurs
when attempting to set certain conditions that deal with time limits
on particular folders either within the downloads folder or within
particular folders within dropbox. Searching for tutorials has been
semi-fruitful, but I guess I am needing a step-by-step guide because
while I understand the ease of this program, it is proving most
challenging.
Any other feedback or sites where detailed explanations are provided
would be greatly appreciated - sorry for the length.

thanks

 You can filter based on the kind of file, or its extension.

 use the RealSpeak voices on the mac either, though. I even bought the 
 acapella voices, but still find myself only using Alex as a general

 thing, it's nothing I'd get all excited about if Apple ever incorporated
 it. In most cases, Alex is responsive enough for my needs on the mac. I'd
 love to see a female equivelent of Alex, though. Alice, perhaps? It's just
 that when it comes to those higher quality voices, I find the female ones
 slightly easier to understand in most cases.

 it and I don't get tired of it. I have a hearing impairment and find 
 it is more clear understandable in words than these silly nuance

 real speak voices but for me, I just don't understand them clearly, to slow
 no matter how much I speed them up I can't understand them when they are
 really fast anyway and lastly too slow even when I can follow them.
 Ohand caps lock gets my vote too.
 If the day comes where Apple have eloquence added to the list of VO

 How do others feel about eloquence being added?

Hello list,

I am a new mac user--so I am not at all familiar with VO commands or gestures, 
but am learning as I go. My mac is two weeks old and I have just installed 
Fusion in virtual machine with Windows 7 with a screen reader. I am having lots 
of difficulties and am  hoping for any help. I have lots of questions, but I 
will keep them to a minimal. I apologize for any silly questions. Here are my 
questions.

1. Is there a specific command or gesture to startup Windows? I can sometimes 
get it to start by muddling around, but I am hoping for a specific command to 
save time and  frustration.
2. When I do get Windows to start, VO often speaks over my screen reader. What 
can I do to avoid VO to speak in Windows.
3. When I am in Windows, I cannot  use any of my arrow keys. If I do press any 
of the four arrows, VO speaks such options as: Suspend, Snapshot, Enter Unity, 
etc. What should I do to have full function of the arrows when in Windows with 
a screen reader?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello.

I can answer some of your questions.

1.  When starting VMWare, turn voice over off.

2.  I do not know of any gesture to start VMWare.  I just go into my 
application folder or if VMWare is in the Doc Hit the letter V and press VO 
space bar.  When VMWare is loaded, VO right until you hear Button Button and 
press VO Space Bar.

3.  You need to map your keys depending on what screenreader you are using in 
windows.

Now you may have more questions.

Just write back to the list and anyone can help I'm sure.

 Hello.
 
 I can answer some of your questions.
 
 1.  When starting VMWare, turn voice over off.
 
 2.  I do not know of any gesture to start VMWare.  I just go into my 
 application folder or if VMWare is in the Doc Hit the letter V and press VO 
 space bar.  When VMWare is loaded, VO right until you hear Button Button and 
 press VO Space Bar.
 
 3.  You need to map your keys depending on what screenreader you are using in 
 windows.
 
 Now you may have more questions.
 
 Just write back to the list and anyone can help I'm sure.

 Hello list,
 
 I am a new mac user--so I am not at all familiar with VO commands or 
 gestures, but am learning as I go. My mac is two weeks old and I have just 
 installed Fusion in virtual machine with Windows 7 with a screen reader. I 
 am having lots of difficulties and am  hoping for any help. I have lots of 
 questions, but I will keep them to a minimal. I apologize for any silly 
 questions. Here are my questions.
 
 1. Is there a specific command or gesture to startup Windows? I can 
 sometimes get it to start by muddling around, but I am hoping for a specific 
 command to save time and  frustration.
 2. When I do get Windows to start, VO often speaks over my screen reader. 
 What can I do to avoid VO to speak in Windows.
 3. When I am in Windows, I cannot  use any of my arrow keys. If I do press 
 any of the four arrows, VO speaks such options as: Suspend, Snapshot, Enter 
 Unity, etc. What should I do to have full function of the arrows when in 
 Windows with a screen reader?
 
 Any help is greatly appreciated.

 I just took a look at ClamxAV; and, it looks good alright.  I really

 Hi all
 I'm trying to burn a playlist to disc in iTunes but each time it burns
 the mp3 disc with the songs in alphabetical order and not the order of
 my original playlist. I googled it and it looks like there's a way to
 let it burn in the original order but problem is the post is not verry
 helpfull. It says you must click on the sort by songs button or
 something, but I'm not seeing a option like that anyware, I even asked
 some sighted assistance to look but they also can't find it. O and I
 have the latest iTunes version.

I use MacKeeper to maintain our Mac.  The virus component is just one module, 
you can clean your system of wasted files in order to optimize performance.  
Once purchasing the package, I think it's $10 annually to maintain and continue 
to use the virus protection module.
