RE: My Braille Edge 40 and myApple devices
Hi iOS 6 does not work with the Braille Edge 40. At least, I had a customer who couldn't get it to work. If they ran iOS7 the edge paired with no problem. I have an edge here and it's working fine with both Mavericks and iOS7. Make sure you are running firmware 1.1 build 20130809 Happy to help you off list with specifics to fix this. Cheers.

Poor Apple is just going to love this when they find out the latest because it makes my case a little more weird. The folks at HIMS kept insisting that the Braille Edge 40 would work with Mavericks. I wasn't sure I agreed, what with the trouble I had been having. I finally got the Bluetooth connection, which was my trouble to work, but in a strange fashion. I'll tell you guys about the iPhone in a minute because that's still a problem for me. To make the story short, when I chose to add the display, it still came up with Braille Edge 0011, which HIMS said was correct, although it sounds strange to me. Ok fine. When I chose to pair, it failed like always. Then it said Options, and when I chose it, then I got to type in the code. This time it worked, whereas before it didn't. The only difference is, and this may explain it, I had done a hard reset on the braille display today, which I had not done earlier. The weird thing is that I can't pair this display without it failing first, at least I can't figure out how. I have never had to let the pairing fail first before being asked for the code. The iPhone, however, is still a problem. It won't even search for the braille display, and I have restarted it and given it a hard reset as well by pressing the power key and the home key together and holding them down for a few seconds. So I still have a problem, but for now it's a little better, except the iPhone is worse.

Re: Safari 2 items, 3 items and internal link?
Hi, Have you looked at the advanced verbosity settings within the VO Utility? When in the Verbosity pane of VO Utility, check the box for Advanced Speech Verbosity options, then Interact with the Table and go down the list. You could change the verbosity level for specific elements to a lower level. This may reduce VO’s verbosity for those sorts of elements to a level you more prefer. Later… Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On Nov 16, 2013, at 6:43 PM, Nicholas Parsons mr.nicholas.pars...@gmail.com wrote: The two items three items thing you're hearing is most likely lists with several items. Whenever VoiceOver encounters a list or sub-list, it announces how many items are in the list. I agree it's overly verbose and not really necessary. It's VoiceOver treating the HTML ol and ul tags as a separate element, which it's not. I wish there was a way to make VoiceOver read a paragraph or whole HTML element at a time without being interrupted by links and the like. I like the way I can navigate through webpages with JAWS on Internet Explorer with control down arrow — I wish there was something similar with VoiceOver. For internal links, however, it's important that VoiceOver distinguishes these from ordinary links. Ordinary links take you to another webpage, whereas internal links take you somewhere else on the webpage you are currently on. They are usually used to navigate from the top of the page to the start of the main article or substance of the page. You probably come across those on many pages called skip to main internal link and the like. Best, Nic On 17/11/2013, at 7:53 AM, Ray Foret Jr rforet7...@comcast.net wrote: Well, if you interact with the two items and three items things, you will notice that you can see items on the page that you cannot see without interacting with those items. Not everything on the page is visible on the surface look of the page. So, if you see an item with a label on it that says something like info tab with five items, and you interact with it, you will notice things there that you would not see until you interact with it. Why? Much of it has to do with the way the page is written and how Voice Over is seeing that code. So, in other words, it’s not a bug, rather, it’s got to do with the new designing of pages and how we interact with it. Same with the internal links. I suspect that clicking on these internal links reveals parts of the page that could not otherwise be seen. the web is not going to stand still for our benefit. It’s changing, and, the way Voice Over sees and deals with the code must change with it and, frankly, so must our old and now outdated perceptions of how we understand the web.

RE: Finding audible books once downloaded to your computer
Audible books will download into whatever folder you always use for downloads, but iTunes will find them and read them, wherever they are. Once the download is complete, iTunes will launch the book and you will find it under your Books section in iTunes. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Andrew Head Sent: Sunday, November 17, 2013 5:54 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Finding audible books once downloaded to your computer Hi all, I saw on the audible website, you don't need any extra download software, the books will download to itunes. I haven't tried downloading from audible on my mac yet, but a friend of mine said he couldn't find his books in the books section of itunes. Would they be in the downloads section? or would they be in Ibooks?

soft/sip phones for mac
Hi all. I was just wondering, is there any soft/sip phone software for mac? I found a couple on the app store, but not accessible with VO. The reason is is that I’m setting up a VPX voip server on my linux server and I would like a way that I can communicate with users on my mac rather than on my server… all though I think I might install one on my server just to be safe. so does anyone know of any soft phone software for mac? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: radium
Why are you VO right arrowing? I have an alias for the app on my desktop. So I VO space on it, then go to the extras menu, then hit the number pad five and then down arrow and find all the things I need to find. No right arrow involved. Maybe there are better ways of doing it, but that is what works for me.

And other saved stations are not playing. I wonder if something is down on Radium's end somehow. This has been working perfectly, and there have been no updates that I am aware of. Very weird.

Re: New Member and a question
Hi George, Here is the instructions you wanted I found this in the mail archives Move vo to the mailbox in the favorites bar, then route the mouse there (vo-cmd-f5). Disable cursor tracking with vo-shift-f3, then lock the mouse down with vo-cmd-shift-space. Move vo to somewhere in the mail window that has nothing in it, like a splitter, and route the mouse again, then unlock the mouse button with another press of vo-cmd-shift-space. That should do it, but if it fails, close Mail and re-open it, then try again. Also, don't forget to turn cursor tracking back on with vo-shift-f3.

Hello Andrew, If, like me, you have the option to open downloaded files automatically turned off, your Audible books will be in your Downloads folder. You can open this by pressing Cmd-Option-l.

RE: My Braille Edge 40 and myApple devices
Hi Lisette, That's interesting. The customer was using Braille Edge Firmware 1.1 and iOS6 on an iPhone 4S or 5 I think and it would fail every time. Once he upgraded to iOS7, all was well.
