running windows under a virtual machine using Vmware?
Hi all, I've got some software that I am trying to run that is pretty nitch, and requires the use of windows, so I am trying to install windows on to a virtual machine on my mac using VMware fusion . I've figured out how to create the Vm, but how to you install windows in to the area where the Vm is located? This away it doesn't have to run from the Usb drive that I have mounted.

Re: accessible flight simulator or racing game etc for OSX or iOS?
readme for blind users using flight gear written by Sandi Jazmin Kruse. First of all, let me say this right out making manuals is definitely not what i do best, so please bare that in mind and fill free too ask questions if something is not clear enough. Flightgear is a flight simulator that was written for about i believe 10 years ago, i joined it when it was about 5 years old as a totally blind person, and well it was clear too me that making it work so i could use it would be relative easy. And with that off the plate lets get too the easy stuff. either you have some know how about the terminal, or you write exactly what i say or it will not work. Sounds harder, than it was meant so here goes. 1:you got a image called flight gear blind install open that = stand on it and press cmd o on it . in there you got a few different files. lets start with speak.nas. copy it from the image too the folder below in a terminal type this cd /Volumes/flightgear-blind-install and hit enter now type cp speak.nas /Applications/FlightGear.app/Contents/Resources/data/local and again hit enter. After that go back too your image and type . cp speak_keys.xml /Applications/FlightGear.app/Contents/Resources and last go back too your image and type. Cp fgfsrc too your home folder, in my case it would be cp fgfsrc /Users/sandra ; rn fgfsrc .fgfsrc Voiceover does not say this but you can see that i am renaming the fgfsrc too a file with a period in front of it. See? you almost there or as Lonestar says, Im already there, or was it something with Mr Mom? All these commands makes me so air-headed. Okay at last go back too your image, you ought too know the drill by now. type cp festival-server.pl / note it is a slash at the end of the line, why? just too lay it somewhere. And now for the part i am not so good at remembering you need a copy of Espeak, but I'm sure that if you gootle it something should come up, we are eventually considering making a version that uses voiceover, but that part is for later. blind related keys: below i have listed some of the most important keys for when you wanna fly the plane. f tells you how fast you go h your heading u what is under you and your altitude above it. l your rate of climb in feet. k your pitch, minus means you are diving, plus means going up. j your bank ankle, minus means you are banking it left, plus means banking right. o is your VOR radio, you need that when you wanna land it again. t is your throttle in % usually in a Storch you will be needing 50% of throttle for straight and level flight. d, presses your throttle all the way too its max. Normal flight controls. 2 will make the plane climb up, 8 will dive it , use ctrl p for locking your pitch. 4 will bank it left 5 will place all services back too neutral 6 will bank it right if you wanna use the wing leveler you press ctrl w and press ctrl w again when you wanna bank it too a new heading. 3 will decrese your throttle and 9 will increase it so now lets say that you take off from the standard airport that will be ksfo, it si a airport in the US and its runway is like 3 kilometer long so it should be more than enough for what you need. press d too max the throttle out, and monitor your airspeed with f, wait till the plane is up on about 50 knots and press 2 a few times, you will see that your plane is taking off and slowly raising through the air. If you use l you can see how many feet a minute you are going up, 400, 600 is a good climbing rate for starters. set your pitch too about 2 and press ctrl p too lock the pitch, and slowly bank the plane right, set your banking rate too 10 or so till you are at a heading of 80ish so you head away from the airport,try too press u too see how high you are over the ground, if you are about 1000 feet up, try too press ctrl p again and press 8 and 2 so you get a feel for diving and raising with the plane a few times. you will hear as the plane dives your engines rpm goes up, and as you go up it will slow down. In the perfect world in gods own creation you will want a altitude at 1400 feet. Try hold that for like 5 minutes, fine adjust your altitude. It is harder than it sounds, try change your application of your throttle till about 50% whilst you still hold the same altitude. Now after these 5 minutes try press your o key, and see what it says, it is as i told you before your VOR radio or too use another word your radio Compus. It will say something like this Vor 290, 4 miles out. it is the way of getting back too the Airport. What it means is this if you wanna go back too the airport head your plane more or less in that direction the radio says… it would in this situation be 290. There is much more too air navigation than this but this is just too give you a little taste of how it is. As you head back too the Airport you will hear your miles going down, you will wanna dive just a little you can do that either by taking the throttle off the engine, or simply
Fit-Headless Works!
Hi all, Just wanted to report complete success with the HDMI-connected Fit-Headless on the Mac Mini 6,1. The performance is now every bit as good as though a real display were connected, which is especially noticeable in the Finder.

Re: running windows under a virtual machine using Vmware?
I'm running an i7 MacBook air with 8 gigs of RAM, and the Air handles Windows better than any of my high end dedicated Windows laptops ever had. I dedicate one core to Windows and 4 gigs of RAM while it's running, leaving 4 gigs and the other Core for the Mac. I use a combination of Karabiner (Previously keyRemap4Macbook), Siel (Previously known as PcKeyboardHack), and Sharp Keys in the actual VM. If you want more information, I can help you off list. I have a setup where my Windows, alt and ctrl keys are all set up to a PC layout inside the VM only, and my capslock routes to the insert key for JAWS/NVDA. I also have it set so I can use capslock as the VO modifier (ctrl+option), which is easier in some cases, but not all. The key remapping process can be rather extensive, so again, if you want to use the layout I described, shoot me an email off list. Hope this helps.

Re: highlighting text
Use shift-up and shift-down instead. You'll get line by line, so might end up needing to trim some text from what you paste, but it should work. You can also use the VO method: interact with the text to select, vo-enter, then use vo-left/right to move by word, or add shift to move by character. Once you have selected all your text, use the normal cmd-c keystroke to copy what you've selected. The key to this method is to interact with the text first; interacting with the html content of the page is not enough.

Re: sling player on osx
Hello Hank and all. I have tried the www.slingbox.com site. I cannot access the information on either the Mac or Windows sides with the plugin installed. It appears to be imbed flash and I can't access the listings. I have been using the SlingBox 500 successfully with the SlingPlayer on my phone. The iPhone Version actually reads out the channel list as well as the program description. . I had to Label many of the buttons The power button for the receiver being really important. On the iPad I get channel numbers but no listing. I can enter a channel number. The only way I have found to stop play is to lock the screen on either unit. Now if memory serves me correctly Jonathan Mosen was a SlingBox user so Jonathan perhaps if I am correct are you still using the beast and if so, how? In my opinion they have a lot of work to do in terms of making their apps accessible out-of-the-box. I can say with certainty the iPhone definitely works if you are willing to take the time to label the buttons. Most of the time you can figure out these buttons from the existing labels. I do not use the DVR features. Hope this helps. Barry Abbott As of Monday I will be training at the Seeing Eye so will be looking forward to checking my sling player out while there as I miss Canadian news when away.

Re: Fit-Headless Works!
The Fit-Headless is the HDMI adaptor; it plugs into the HDMI port and has no other end. Presumably if you wanted to use a telly you could without one of these; the whole point is to avoid the silly performance degradation that results from having no monitor attached at all. And of course audio comes from the usual audio jack or speakers; the device doesn't output anything itself. HTH.

Re: highlighting text
Hi, another way you may want to copy text. I just learned this recently from this list is the last thrase copied to the clipboard. You do this by holding down the VO keys adding shift to the combo and finally hitting the letter C and it will copy what was last spoken. So say Voiceover read a paragraph with the Safari, and you liked what you heard, you could use this command to hopefully copy what's already been said and paste where ever it needs to go. While I'm sure its not the best method to go about copying text from web pages, its a pretty handy command to have in your tool kit. Like I said, I didn't even know it existed until recently on the Mac. I knew it was on IOS but I'm glad to know that it is present on the Mac too. So give it a shot. I can see it being handy for things like: phone numbers, addresses etc. Good luck with getting your text for your class this coming Monday.

Re: Fit-Headless Works!
Nice. So for $15 US you have a little dongle that you plug into the HDMI port to make it think it has a real HDMI display attached. It's actual purpose is that many servers are run headless and folks screen share to them only to discover the default display resolution is very low. This tricks the machine into running at high resolution because it thinks there is a screen there. For the MacMini issue of bogging down with no screen attached this is a perfect and fairly cheap solution. Here is the Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/CompuLab-fit-Headless-computer-display-emulator/dp/B00FLZXGJ6/ and here is the manufacturer's link: http://www.fit-pc.com/web/products/fit-headless/ CB On 7/10/14, 11:27 AM, Sabahattin Gucukoglu wrote: The Fit-Headless is the HDMI adaptor; it plugs into the HDMI port and has no other end.

Fwd: highlighting text
how do you copy last phrase using iOS? On 10 Jul 2014, at 04:52 pm, Daniel McGee danielmcgee...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi, another way you may want to copy text. I just learned this recently from this list is the last thrase copied to the clipboard.

Re: highlighting text
To copy the last spoken phrase to the clipboard, press Vo-shift-c. To speak the last phrase without copying it, use vo-z.

Re: sling player on osx
Tivo is the way to go, their app is 95% accessible. While the actual Tivo box is like a DVR you would get from your cable company meaning it is not accessible although at least it has sound feedback meaning hoops when you move up or down a menu so at least you know you are doing something, but the app is fantastic. You can view the entire channel guide, set season passes, record programs, edit your season passes, cancel recordings, start a program playing on your T.V. from the iPhone app, with the new boxes you can watch on your phone, and you can watch on your phone anywhere in the country when you are connected to Wifi. It's the best option out there for us.

SD Card reader for the MBA
Hello Folks, I attempted to connect an old multi-card reader in both the bootcamp Win 8.1 and Mac OS ML. On the bootcamp side, it seems like it wants to connect because I hear the chimes, but no additional drives are listed in windows Explorer. On the Mac side, this card reader is not recognized. Can someone recommend a multi-function card reader for my MBA 11 2013 that will be compatible for both the Mac and Win OS? Thanks in advance.

Re: New iTunes seems to fix navigation
Prevented us from buying from the ITunes store? I have never ever ever had any issues at all buying from the ITunes store. Given that Tim also has seemed not to have had any trouble, you might have brought your problem to us and perhaps we could have helped. After all, look how long I fought even using ITunes. I got my Mac in 2009 and didn't really begin to sink my teeth in to ITunes until this year. I won't claim to know everything: but, I'm finding it ain't as bad as I was afraid it was gonna be.

Re: Fit-Headless Works!
It's good that this is available since the mac mini is very sluggish without a monitor. I know lots of people that use their pc without a monitor and it works fine, so I would say this is a design flaw. I wonder if it happens when using windows with boot camp?

I just learned this recently from this list is the last thrase copied to the clipboard. You do this by holding down the VO keys adding shift to the combo and finally hitting the letter C and it will copy what was last spoken. So say Voiceover read a paragraph with the Safari, and you liked what you heard, you could use this command to hopefully copy what's already been said and paste where ever it needs to go. While I'm sure its not the best method to go about copying text from web pages, its a pretty handy command to have in your tool kit. Like I said, I didn't even know it existed until recently on the Mac. I knew it was on IOS but I'm glad to know that it is present on the Mac too. So give it a shot.

Once you have selected all your text, use the normal cmd-c keystroke to copy what you've selected.

Re: Fit-Headless Works!
Right. I used to fake it by hooking up something to the VGA connection to make it think there was a monitor but this sounds like a simpler/cheaper solution. I think PCs just default to the lowest possible resolution when no monitor is connected but the Macs, for whatever reason, perpetually scan for a non-existant monitor and turn to sludge.

Re: highlighting text
Sorry, I made an error. As mentioned, it is three fingers tap screen four times. Then it should say copied to paste board.

Re: Fit-Headless Works!
Hi, I'd tend to disagree, sorry. Apple used to sell Minis with Server software specifically as a Mac Mini Server. I purchased a few of them for work. They had two 500 GB HD's and no DVD/CD unit. This was back when Snow Leopard Server was out and XServe's were still being sold. Not sure if their stand has changed since then but I doubt it. The new Server software is simply an app available from the Mac App Store so they likely promote it being useful on most Macs. Later...
