Re: 30-second Delay Before Voiceover Speaks Time

Re: 30-second Delay Before Voiceover Speaks Time
Thanks for the feedback, guys. i have a late 2009 Mac Mini running Mavericks. It doesn't lag if I invoke the command immediately the second and subsequent times. I don't use dictation at all on the Mac. Do speakable items have to do with dictation? I'll try disabling them and see what happens. Teresa On the other hand, there are different fingers.

Re: 30-second Delay Before Voiceover Speaks Time
I found my speakable items settings in Accessibility. I understand now that it has to do with speech recognition and not with dictation specifically. The speakable items setting was off all along.

Re: IOS apps and TV access
This is probably what the sales person was confused about. You can get an Apple iPhone app to control the TV but that's not AppleTV. That said, this is the battle currently being waged. Should the TV be 'smart' and support apps, web surfing etc or should it be a dumb screen which you connect to smart boxes like AppleTV or whatever you like? For me, I like to choose my stuff and want to plug in the device of my choosing, which currently is a Mac Mini. My in-laws have some kind of big flast screen with web surfing and such but they don't even use it. Just to cumbersome with a remote. I did get to go to Comcast's unveiling of their talking set-top box at CSUN which was impressive. They had an iPhone app and when you hit the button and said tune the weather channel the set top box changed the channel as expected. The whole interface on the box itself had speech so, like an iPhone, everything you navigated to would speak what it was. Quite nice. I was talking to some of the folks and they apparently took the Siri approach where they render the speech on their server farm and download it to the box on the fly. This makes it much easier to fix/improve things in the future without having to push out major software changes to a jillion boxes. CB On 3/30/14 8:19 PM, David Chittenden wrote: Go to the app store.

Assigning braille commands with the Braille Edge 40
Hi guys I think I have figured out the problem that is causing some folks some grief. I went to the VoiceOvg Utility and tried to assign a new braille command to a braille key. I wanted to assign one for the Mac command accent symbol for going between windows. I could not get VoiceOver to let me add a row to the table, even though the directions says that you can add a row. As far as I can tell, the Mac just ignored me when I pressed the add button. If I am right here, this means you can only use the ones that are already assigned, the ones that are in the manuals from Apple and HIMS. This may be a problem with other braille displays, too, I don't know. I think in order for this to work you have to able to type in the meaning of the key and then be able to press command b like the instructions say when you are in the section for the braille key description. You also have to be able to type in the text for the key description and what it does, or it's useless. As far as I can tell right now, this does not work, for this braille display.

Re: iPad drops contact with shared library
As some background, years ago I had an 802.11B or G router (can't recall which) that would drop connections when I used my particular Panasonic wireless phone. Apparently that phone ran on the same 2.4GHz radio band as the Wifi which is also the same band as my microwave oven. In other words, that radio band is crowded such that using my microwave made noise on the phone while using my phone would cause my wifi to slow to a crawl or drop. The oven is old so apparently it is not as shielded as newer ones. Anyway, I never could get the wifi and phone to cooperate and ended up having to get a newer phone. Apparently the newer ones are 'frequency agile' and will hop around noisy parts of the spectrum such as my wifi and microwave. After that I had no more problems. I ended up giving the old phone to my inlaws who put it in their detached garage, away from everything else. CB On 3/27/14 8:13 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote: Hi, Nope.

Re: Assigning braille commands with the Braille Edge 40
Ok, John. How did you get to the bottom of the table? That is an obvious question, I guess, but obviously I'm doing something wrong. VoiceOver says to go to Add so that's why I did it that way. The other thing is, when you press command b, how does it know what command you are telling the key to set itself to? Or, can you set commands for the ones on the table?

Re: login and keychain password
Tim, I know I saw the Display name option somewhere and am certain my full name is there. Here is what I have so far. In the display login window part are 2 radio buttons, one for 'list all users' and one for 'name and password'. If the first one is selected. I have to navigate to my account and then only have to type in the password. If the other option is selected, I have to type in both name and password. I will leave this the way it is for now.

That should do it. A few things to note though. If you have iCloud keychain turned on, this is definitely a bad idea as your saved passwords and such are more easily accessed by anyone who gains access to your machine. If you don't use that feature, then it's not such a big deal other than what I mentioned earlier. If the Automatic login pop-up is dimmed, then you did not unlock the pane yet.

Re: login and keychain password
Hi, OK, if that is working for you and your comfortable with it, then that's the best thing for you. Later...

Here is what I have so far. In the display login window part are 2 radio buttons, one for 'list all users' and one for 'name and password'. If the first one is selected. I have to navigate to my account and then only have to type in the password. If the other option is selected, I have to type in both name and password. I will leave this the way it is for now.

Your Short Name cannot be removed, so the account remains OK. You can fix this by going into the Users Groups pane again, clicking the lock at the bottom of the pane and entering your password to unlock this pane, then you should be able to navigate around and find the field for the text of your Name. What you've done by changing the format to actually require typing of both your name and password will do the trick but you may wish to fix the Display name as well. HTH. Later...

That's not a recommended behaviour because if your machine is stolen or accessed by someone else, they have easy access to all your personal files. Now, if that isn't a concern to you, then do the following: * go to the Apple menu and choose System Preferences. * Select Users Groups. * Unlock the pane by pressing on the lock near the bottom of the pane, then enter your password. * Interact with the Users, Groups Login Options List near the top of the pane. * navigate to the last item in that list, it should be Login Options. * Stop Interacting with the list then navigate right to the Automatic Login pop-up. * select which user you want to automatically login to on startup. * close System Prefs. That should do it. A few things to note though. If you have iCloud keychain turned on, this is definitely a bad idea as your saved passwords and such are more easily accessed by anyone who gains access to your machine. If you don't use that feature, then
Re: iPad backup and restore
Hi: You can either restore from iCloud in the setup, or you can connect to iTunes, and restore from your backup with in iTunes. Both ways work fine.

Re: iPad drops contact with shared library
Well, if it's 802.11G then it's not going to interfere with phones running at 5GHz. Maybe the device is reaching its end of life? I poked around in some forums and apparently there have been firmware updates for this device. Have you ever done a firmware update? Is this hardware supplied by your ISP? If so, maybe you can contact them about dropouts. They might have a few suggestions. CB On 3/31/14 5:53 PM, Agent086b wrote: Hi, the router is a Billion BiPac 7300G running 802.11G.

Apparently that phone ran on the same 2.4GHz radio band as the Wifi which is also the same band as my microwave oven. In other words, that radio band is crowded such that using my microwave made noise on the phone while using my phone would cause my wifi to slow to a crawl or drop. The oven is old so apparently it is not as shielded as newer ones. Anyway, I never could get the wifi and phone to cooperate and ended up having to get a newer phone. Apparently the newer ones are 'frequency agile' and will hop around noisy parts of the spectrum such as my wifi and microwave. After that I had no more problems. I ended up giving the old phone to my inlaws who put it in their detached garage, away from everything else. CB On 3/27/14 8:13 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote: Hi, Nope.

If it is an older router and a newer iPad, they often don’t like each other that much and this sort of thing isn’t out of the ordinary. The other option is signal interference from things like cordless phones and such. These sorts of wireless devices often interfere with the WiFi signal at those older frequencies. Make sure that those kinds of devices are not set close to the router itself and you may wish to change which signal frequency your router emits. If it is transmits using channel 6, maybe change it to channel 11.

folder groups and text groups in ML
Hi all, I put ML on a 2010 model Macbook Pro. It was as clean an install as it could be. now when I go to my browser, instead of the normal column view, it says stuff like Folder Group and text group, and it's behaving quite strangely. Is there some obvious thing I'm overlooking? On my other computer with ML on it, it seems to be the normal column view where the name of the folder or file is announced, and that's it. I could really use some help here. Friendly, Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
