Re: Best scanners for text scanning

Re: Best scanners for text scanning
Why not use a OCR application and copy the text to the clipboard then paste it onto a note which you can then share on to your Dropbox that you can access on your Mac? You should be able to do this task fairly easy. Having the Dropbox software on your Mac would make things a lot easier since what you upload on your Dropbox app on your iPhone will sink on the computer.

Re: Best scanners for text scanning
I'm not contradicting anybody else's experience but I have gotten excellent scans with vuescan. It is my experience that page numbers can possibly be missing no matter what method you use though this has not happened to me as a rule with vuescan. But then I usually take my books apart because no matter what method I use, I find that scanning books with the book left whole doesn't give me the level of accuracy I need; probably a lack in my own technique. However, with Abbyy Pro you now don't need vuescan, though I think it's going to be a while before I am totally comfortable with Abbyy Pro. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

Re: Is There an Easier Way to Access and Download Google Drive Documents?
Thanks both Tim and Deb (think that's it). I was definitely hoping for something as seamless as Dropbox. I'll give Insync a go, but I'm guessing from what Tim said that it might only work if the documents are in my Drive, and the documents I'm interested in were shared with me by someone else so I'm guessing they're not in my Drive. Really, the way Dropbox works is so much simpler. I'll check out Insync but am guessing I'll probably have to fiddle about pressing x on every document then exporting them somehow. Still, this is easier than opening each one up and downloading as I was doing. So thanks so much to you both for your help!

Right, but first you have to install sox. So if the files are already on your desktop you could just do cd ~/Desktop first and then run the command to combine the files.

Re: saving text of page source code
Didn't notice a reply to this. I'm assuming you want the 'rendered source' as the html which is downloaded is usually heavily modified after the fact by scripts running the browser. You might want to give this Safari plugin a try: http://www.awarepixel.com/safari/bettersource/ It adds some controls to the Safari toolbar, one of which is Better Source Generated which pops a new window or tab with all the source code and line numbers. The annoying bit is that the line numbers are actually injected as a blob at the beginning of the page so if you select all and paste into your favorite editor you can strip all that off the top until you hit the opening html tag. Depending on what editor you use, the easiest way to do that might be to search for html which usually will select it, then arrow left to put your cursor before the opening and then do a shift+home to select all the junk at the top. Then you can just delete it. What's left is the actual HTML in use at the time you did the copy command.

Kenwood software for Mac
Hi, I have a Kenwood HamRadio and was looking for programming software for use with VO on Mac. I forget the model I use, all I can say is that. When it turns on, it has a lady that says. Channel mode 1. So perhaps, hopefully someone in the US who has that radio could tell me their model and it might match mine.

LastPass and Safari - Major Problem!
I noticed with some recent changes to Safari and LastPass that now whenever the LastPass plug-in is active, I can't keep focus from jumping over into the LastPass HTML pane. I never had this problem before. It makes it impossible to spend any time on a given site such as filling forms without the cursor suddenly jumping over to the LastPass page. Is anyone else seeing this? I'm running latest prod version of Mavericks, Safari and LastPass. This is so bad now, I might have to dump this and go with 1Password or something.

Re: problems with trying to reinstall lion
Unfortunately, that didn't work. There was no password dialog of any kind on there and using the cmd+tab or CMD+~ yielded no results. I even had a sighted room mate come in here and take a look. There was no visible password dialog at all. It just sat there displaying the dialog verifying illegibility with the Appstore Mind you, this was in recovery mode.

Re: Restoring from a Time Machine backup
I did just that. I opened Finder, hit cmd-shift-c for Computer, and opened my Time Machine drive.

A bookedge type would be nice too but I don't think I'll get that with my other wishes. A camera instead would be a wonderful solution but honestly I've tried that, both with the iphone and a stand-alone scanner, and no matter how hard I try to follow the instructions, I can't get the quality I need to scan books; I know other people do it but it just doesn't ever work quite for me. Being able to just turn pages and snap pictures sounds ideal but it hasn't measured up to my hopes. But don't get me wrong; I do like my 110 and I'm not griping; just sharing what I would really like to have! I pretty much take my books apart to scan them which means I don't scan library books.
