lousy web page
Hi all! I am trying to use my supermarket's web page to read the current weekly ad specials. Just wondered if somebody would take a look at this page to see if you have any ideas. Just general feedback would be good as well. I think its a pretty poorly designed web page and I've talked to the store several times with no success. I can find popup buttons with the departments listed such as dairy, produce and the like but once there there is an image and truncated text info. Sometimes if I mouse over the information I can get it to read a better description. This is not always reliable. Any ideas would be very helpful.

Re: getting started with garageband
Hi. Thanks for all your help. Im making my self familiar with garage band. I have another problem. I am unable to insert loops at specific positions in tracks. I am playing the arrangement until I reach the point where I wish to insert the new loop in a new track. I am navigating to the loops, selecting the desired loop, performing a mouse down(VO+command+shift+space). I am releasing the mouse curser after i interact with the tracks contents and VO says area below tracks. This does the job in most cases but inserts the loop at the wrong place at times. What is the correct way to do this? Thanks in advance. Cheers Venkatesh On 4/9/14, Kjsc Radio kjsc.ra...@gmail.com wrote: Since we're talking about GarageBand, I have a question.

Re: lousy web page
Hi Jim, I've just visited the page of your supermarket. I'm afraid you are right: I was able to choose the department but thereafter things get complicated. I too can read only a part of the text label for an item. I wonder whether the labels are also truncated for a sighted user who probably has an advantage over you because they can see the image of the product. I had trouble selecting further pages unless of course it was because there was no more than one page of products. I visited bakery department. I tried to set Safari to imitate a different browser under develop menu but that did not seem to improve matters. I have no more suggestions.

Re: lousy web page
Hi Andrew! Well there probably was only one page for the bakery. Thanks for taking a look at it. I have been able, sometimes, to route the mouse to the image and have it read the text in its entirety. The text is expanded for sighted users and I can't figure out what they have done to make it abbreviated when voiceover reads it.

more on my keychain problem
Hi, Last week I wrote in with a problem with my keychain. On my MBA, somehow my keychains got out of synch. I got suggestions from this list on how to fix this, and I thought it was fixed, but yesterday it started happening again. I got security alerts asking me to enter the keychain password for both local items and for log ins. Sooo, I googled the problem and got directed to an apple help page on fixing it. What I had to do is to go into the system library, find the keychains folder, and then delete a file with a very long file name that is particular to each mac. In my case, this was the only file with this long string of letters, so it was easy to find. After that, you immediately have to restart the mac. After this, to fix the log in keychain, open the keychain access app in the utils folder of your applications folder. here, go into preferences and under general, pick the option for resetting your log in keychain. After that, yuou can pick your password and then hit ok. This will create a whole new keychain. Leave the app. Now you can enter all your keychain info when prompted and everything should be hunky dory. I hope this wasn't too confusing and that I didn't leave out steps.

two pages questions
Hi all! I have a situation in pages where I have a line of text and part of it needs to be at the left margin and part needs to be aligned flush right. When I select the text that I need to align right it moves the entire line. Any ideas? Maybe with tabs? I have not figured out how to set a tab stop at the right margin. My second question is regarding using the business card templates with pages. Has anybody successfully used the templates to create printable cards? I have a lot of perforated card stock that I need to use. I may have already asked this question here but can't remember.

Re: statusbar in 10.9.2 mavericks
Hello all: I'm getting the same problem here as well. I've got two third party items in my status bar. The first is the dropbox icon and the second is the icon for 1Password Mini. If I Vo+Space on Dropbox I get the window opening sound and hear the word app which is then cut off. The window closes too fast for the screen reader to render the message. If I press Vo+Space on the 1Password Mini icon I get the 1Password dialog where I can enter my master password. So it seems like the problem is with the DropBox application and not with the OS.

Re: Styles context menu in pages - assigning shortcuts
Thanks Anne, What threw me off was that the styles are called buttons, which doesn't usually indicate an element that one can interact with. (I've been coming across a lot of these non-standard naming of elements lately). This makes getting to that context menu a lot easier than my method. As to these general notes you spoke of, are they part of your Pages training materials? I think I'd be interested in learning more about them and purchasing the training materials if available. I'm trying to make the transition from MS-Word to Pages and I think your materials would make that possible. I've already transitioned from Excel to Numbers and am favorably impressed with Numbers vs Excel. I'd like to get to that same place with Pages. I don't want to be locked into using only one product for what I need to do on computers. Thanks again.

First of all, I would recommend that you have your mouse set to ignore the other cursors. Then, set the delay to zero for speaking what's under the mouse. Now for working with paragraph styles. Here's an exerpt from my general notes on Pages. Renaming, deleting or setting short cuts for paragraph styles * Press VO-Space on the Paragraph styles button. * Navigate to the styles table. * Interact and find the style you wish to delete, rename, or for which you want to set a short cut. * Interact once more and navigate right once. * Bring the mouse. * If you hear menu button, press VO-Space to open the menu. * Otherwise, scoot the mouse away somewhere by swiping a finger across the trackpad and bring the mouse again. * This time you should hear menu button, so press VO-Space. * Select the appropriate action from the menu and press Return. * If you are renaming the style, just type the new name. * If you are deleting the style it will be deleted. * If you're adding a short cut, choose the one you want from the submenu and press Return. Cheers, Anne On 10 Apr 2014, at 01:15, Phil Halton philh...@gmail.com wrote: I spent some time today trying to figure out the styles procedures in Pages. After reading the help files extensively, I tried to locate the context menu for the styles in the paragraph styles table of the styles popup and here's what I found. by setting VO to speak text under the mouse with a short delay, I routed the mouse to the style button, then slowly moved the mouse right until I found menu. that's the context menu and clicking it brings up the menu where I could rename, delete, update the style etc and also assign shortcuts. It's tricky though, I found that hiding all other apps first helps. Also, routing the mouse the something like the title style, and then slowly dragging down, I could find each style in the style list, and then drag right from the style I wanted. Sometimes I had to go a long way right and even went off the window, then slowly back left I would hear popup and then a little further left I'd find the menu button. It appears that, visually speaking, it is a list with the style name and an arrow/submenu symbol at the far right of the menu item. so dragging exactly straight is necessary so as not to slip down or up onto another styles menu button. If in doubt, I simply moved left until I heard the style name, then straight right again onto the associated menu button. with some practice I was able to reliably find the context menu button for any style and assign a shortcut (F1 thru F8). For all I know, this is old hat to all you Pages veterans, but it's a discovery for me. I also found how jumping to the formatter will deselect any text in the body area unless you turn off cursor tracking. I don't know the full significance and implications of this yet, but I have at least discovered the deselecting problem and can account for it. Does anyone care to elaborate on any of this stuff for a new Pages user, and potential convert from MS Word? Thanks, BTW: I have a 1 hour Pages one to one training session coming up in a few weeks and I'm going to put that Apple store trainer through his paces. in particular, I going to grill him on working the whole styles question. I have found that it is a big help to have a pair of eyes supposedly well-versed in the software looking on and commenting as I try to work this thing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Accessible Packet Sniffers?
Hi Alex, I don't know of a Mac specific utility, but I used to use a console utility called mmap quite a few years ago when I was doing a lot of experimenting with Linux. I don't have the links handy but do a search for a package called home-brew. It is a packaging system for Mac OS that will allow you to install a huge list of unix utilities that Apple does not provide. Nmap may be among the list of packages available through Homebrew. You can find Homebrew through Github.

Re: can somebody help me about microsoft one note
Hi, It will likely stay on the list of apps that were upgraded in the last 30 days until those 30 days are past.

Re: getting started with garageband
ÎHi, Try this. Navigate to the tool bar interact with it. VO-Right-arrow to the Control bar interact with it. I believe you'll land right on the BPM group. Interact with it VO-Arrow to fro between the Bar, Beats, Tics. Set each one, as desired, by arrowing up down. Remember, if you play the track again, you change all of this. I've made this easier by setting some hot spots, which are very stable in this version of VoiceOver GarageBand. With your loops, just find the one you want, copy it to the clipboard with Command-C, move to the Regions area, paste with Command-V. No need for all that dragging dropping. It works, for me, every time. Hope this helps, CJ On Apr 10, 2014, at 12:18 AM, Venkatesh Potluri venky...@gmail.com wrote: Hi. Thanks for all your help. Im making my self familiar with garage band.

Re: pages questions
Hello Jim, This was a hard nut to crack but here's how to sort out the alignment. * Type the text you want to have at the left then jump to the Formatter. * Select layout and interact with the scroll area. * Go down to Tab stops and expand it with VO-Space. * Click the Add tab stop button and interact with the table. * Bring the mouse to the field showing the position of the tab stop and Double-click using VO-Shift-Space. * Type in either 16 for centimeters or 4.5 for inches. * Interact with the field that says Alignment Left and bring the mouse. * Turn on Mouse keys. * Move the mouse right by pressing the letter o on a laptop or the 6 key on an extended keyboard 52 times then click with the letter i or the 5. * Move the mouse down the way with either k or 2 until you hear Right then click with i or 5. * You should now turn Mouse keys off again. Back in your document, navigate to the end of your line and press the Tab key. * You can now enter the second part of your line and the new text will be right aligned. It took my husband and me over an hour to figure this one out and I need to report it to Apple. Cheers, Anne On 10 Apr 2014, at 18:19, Jim Gatteys jgatt...@gmail.com wrote: Hi!

Re: pages questions
Hi Jim Maybe I missed something or I'm off base or something, but have you used the VO v command to turn on VoiceOver's announcing attributes. When I check this, I turn two things on. I first turn on where it says When Status Changes--right now mine is set to do nothing, but if I use the up and down arrows I can get play tone or speak. I usually use speak. The other thing I change when I want to check format is Text Attributes; it has the same choices. Then I press ESCAPE to get out. I set both of these options to check for format.

(I've been coming across a lot of these non-standard naming of elements lately). This makes getting to that context menu a lot easier than my method. As to these general notes you spoke of, are they part of your Pages training materials? I think I'd be interested in learning more about them and purchasing the training materials if available. I'm trying to make the transition from MS-Word to Pages and I think your materials would make that possible. I've already transitioned from Excel to Numbers and am favorably impressed with Numbers vs Excel. I'd like to get to that same place with Pages. I don't want to be locked into using only one product for what I need to do on computers.

Re: bard mobile question
How do you tell Dropbox to put files into BARD Mobile? When I did it with Access Note, that program sent to Dropbox to add it. You can read brf files in Access Note, too, but I think BARD Mobile would be better. The last time I looked at a brf file in it, the control characters were not displaying, and it was in lower case.

Re: pages questions
If you press the VO keys and V at the same time as in verbosity, you can go left and right arrows to find the various choices. Then when you get those two I talked about before, you go down arrow to get the one you want. Then you don't have to do anything except press escape and it should talk the various options.

Family Trees
Hi all, Has anyone researched their family tree and used any Mac apps to build your tree? I'm doing a lot of googling, ancestry .com, family search org. I'd like an easy to use program to actually type in the information and build my family tree. I have it going on ancestry right now, but I don't find it easy to read follow.

Re: iSee - eBook on how to use Apple products from a blind perspective
Hi, Coming late to this, but I absolutely agree. It's the worst example of iBook accessibility I've ever seen. Pity, because it's a great book but really very difficult to read with VO. Personally, I would not have released it in this state. Sorry if that sounds blunt, but it's how I feel.
