He asked me if I had one of the Synology NAS (network attached storage) devices.

Actually what you describe doesn't sound that tedious or complex and would be quite cool if it works, which it obviously does. Do you need to use another program, Sound Flower I think, to also set this whole thing up or is that only if you want to record your Mac's audio as well? No idea why I'd want to do that but just saying. :) Jenine Stanley dragonwalke...@gmail.com On Aug 26, 2014, at 7:47 PM, Jonathan Mosen jmo...@mosen.org wrote: Hi Jenine, if you are going to be doing this sort of thing for broadcast purposes or for anything other than your own archival purposes, I'd highly recommend using Audio Highjack pro to record your Skype calls. You can choose the file format you want to use. This is important, because most file formats are lossy. If you save a Skype call in a lossy format, like MP3 or something compressed, you will eventually have to bring it into a sound editor, where it will get edited, saved, and eventually compressed a second time to a lossy format. The more times you do this, the more artefacts you'll introduce to your recording. You can tell Audio Highjack to save in .aiff format, which is the Mac equivalent of a .wav file and is therefore completely uncompressed.I know you also use Amadeus Pro, so let me talk you through how I use the two together. I set up Audio Highjack so that my voice is on one channel, and the Skype caller's voice is on the other. The advantage of doing this is that you can then bring the file into Amadeus Pro, and put each channel in a separate track. Once that's done, convert each track from a mono to a stereo track, and you have you and the Skype caller in both ears. Because you are both on separate tracks, you can apply different effects as appropriate. For example, normalise each track separately so you are both sounding similar in volume. If the Skype caller sounds too bright or too dull, you can apply equalisation just to the caller, and not to you. Finally, if you wish, you can pan each track to get a stereo effect. Then when you're done getting things sounding just how you want, mix it all down back onto one stereo track. It sounds a bit complicated writing it down, but i do this all the time and now it's just a routine. The other advantage of Audio Highjack is that it isn't specific to Skype. I use it to record FaceTime Audio calls and calls from more obscure chat programmes where appropriate, so it's a very powerful tool that doesn't lock you in. And finally, while I am not testing Yosemite, I would think Audio Hijack will work with the new continuity features of iOS 8 and Yosemite. This means you can make a call on your iPhone, and record it on your Mac with Audio Hijack. If you have a carrier that offers HD Voice for instance, then you'll get brilliant sound doing that. Hope that's of some help. Audio Hijack is one of the coolest things about a Mac I reckon.

Re: Help Needed on Uninstalling An Application from my Mac Running Maverick
VMWare has an article about how to manually uninstall.

(smile) I know that Apple states that all one need do to uninstall an app is to simply put it into the Trash but I have heard through the years that one must do more than this to really uninstall it. I'll be honest, my fear of uninstalling incompletely or incorrectly comes from my many years of working with Windows which, as many of you may know, can turn ugly with just the click of a mouse. In years gone by, if one didn't uninstall something correctly, it could cause major startup problems. While I'm certain this is not the case in OSX, some fears are difficult to dispel.

Service battery?
Has anyone ever gotten this message before? I was just checking my battery status on my MacBook, and I heard service battery right before I heard 64 percent charged.

What I found was that when in Windows in Fusion, turn on keyboard help with Capslock+1 on the number row so you can play. FN+semicolon, This should activate the JAWS cursor. FN+slash This will activate the PC cursor. FN +CapsLock+semicolon This is the route PC to JAWS FN +CapsLock+slash This will route Jaws to PC Experiment with FN + the keys on the righthand side of the keyboard . What is happening is that the FN key + the keys on the righthand side of the keyboard are acting as a numpad. So, you can also find the combos to right and left click and page up/pagedown just like on the numpad. I do find this to be a pain and will take some getting used too, but, it does work.

Carabiner also gives you a numeric keypad which you can access using the fn plus the keys on the right side (7 8 9 u i o j k l m / ; p 0).

I have a MacBook Pro running Fusion. I use Seil and Karabiner to remap my caps lock key to the Insert key. I use SharpKeys to flip my alt and window key mappings and all of this is working as I expect, with one exception... I normally use a full sized Apple keyboard while at the office with a numeric keypad on the right. So, this means that the caps lock key doesn't play a role here for the most part and everything works well for me using the JAWS desktop layout. I have found that if I use the insert key on the numeric keypad or the caps lock key while in Laptop mode that none of the keys past the J key work. Meaning, I can do things like insert-t, caps lock plus s, etc., etc. but anything on the right-hand side of the keyboard doesn't work. Something interesting to note is that the laptop keys don't work whether using caps lock or the insert key on the numeric keypad past the letter J. Has anyone run into this issue at all? If so your advice is hugely appreciated. I am wondering if the newer versions of Karabiner or Seil have broken something here?

Re: Service battery?
There's an app called Battery Health that can give you a ton of info about your battery, including the general health of your battery based on the number of charge cycles it's gone through, the max charge it can take, etc. I just found it yesterday when it was mentioned on a podcast. This app exposes a lot of the battery metrics you can't get to with the built-in battery/charge menu.

Re: Service battery?
My wife's ancient 7 year old MacBook gives this as it hardly lasts an
hour on battery. I'm hoping the tape continues to hold it together until
we can afford to replace it with a new one. That said, from terminal you
can find out the stats on your battery by copying and pasting the
following line:
ioreg -l | grep -i Capacity
You should get back something like this:
| | MaxCapacity = 6716
| | CurrentCapacity = 6648
| | LegacyBatteryInfo =
{Amperage=415,Flags=7,Capacity=6716,Current=6648,Voltage=12575,Cycle
Count=197}
| | DesignCapacity = 6900
which if you skip through all the Vertical Line junk you'll find the
Max Capacity (in mA), Current Capacity and Design Capacity. The above is
from my fairly new MacBook Pro.

I was just checking my battery status on my MacBook, and I heard
service battery right before I heard 64 percent charged. I got
it to repeat two or three more times.
Has anyone gotten this message before?
The battery has been charging fine, and has not run down more
quickly than usual.
One thing I did notice today is that the magnetic end of the
charger which plugs into the MacBook is quite hot, which is not
typical.
Thoughts?

I found that if I skip this step and used mp3 converter directly on the .mov file, only one side of the conversation got converted. I don't understand why this is. I would rather not have to use two steps, but it works for me and until I get some mental space to find another solution it does the job.

It makes a .mov file (even if you choose not to record the video), which is quite a large file. I convert this to mp3 and then compress it some. The mov file plays fine in quick look (press space on the file to open). Definitely money well spent for me. I know people will say they use audio highjack pro, but I can't get my head around that programme I'm afraid. This literally records all the voices without you having to turn anything on at the start of the call.

Re: how to change a page document to a word document on the mack using voice over
Becky, In Pages,this is easy. Go to File menu Select Export From the submenu, choose Word... You'll be prompted again for the format you wish to export to, Word will be selected, but to double check, VO arrow to the Word option and confirm. You'll be presented with the typical save dialog box. Choose the location, change the name if desired and press return. Your file will be saved as a .doc file.

Has anyone ever used Band Camp?
Good day/night all. A friend sent me a link to his music on a site called band camp. There is an app, but it looks like it cannot be used until one has an account, and one does not get an account until one purchases music from the site. I attempted to purchase a song or two of his, but though the buttons are clearly labeled: buy now and add to cart nothing appears to be happening. I cannot find the cart after adding to it, and check out is not giving me anything either. I have read their support materials, but unless I am missing something, I am not finding a way to purchase the items. Could this be a VoiceOver issue, even though all buttons appear to be labeled? Has anyone ever used this who can provide me with assistance? I cannot locate any contact links for getting to an actual human for assistance. http://www.bandcamp.com Christine -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: blind square help.
The only thing I think I can say I don't like about Apple Maps, is that if you want it to announce turn-by-turn directions, unless there's something I'm missing, you have to have it running in the foreground, which is a serious inconvenience, considering the fact that most people multi-task with their phones.

The app was accessible for playing my songs though you can also download the song to your computer from the website once you purchase and purchasing as I recall does not require an acount but using the app does; then you can see your collections on the website and in the app. . At first there was an issue with the back button not being seen in voiceover on my i-devices so I would be stuck in an album and not be able to go back and see the single song I had bought that was not in the album. I emailed them about the problem. they did reply. and I don't where whether this happened as a result or not, but shortly after the app was updated and the back button became accessible. If I get time I will go back and pretend I am going to purchase something to see if there are any special instructions you should have. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash! Then God gave me a new heart and life: His joy for my despairing tears! And now, every day: This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

Re: Has anyone ever used Band Camp?
I was able to use an email address to report the problem with the app as I recall but again, I don't now remember the process so it must not have seemed difficult to me at the time. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

Re: Has anyone ever used Band Camp?
You don't specify if you were trying to buy a song on an i-device or on a Mac computer. Here's what I did on my Mac with Safari. I'm writing down the steps as I do them. I searched for the artist I wanted and then went to the link for the album and then the individual song (there was a buy now for the whole album too). I found the buy button but actually I interacted because there were four items, so I interacted to make sure I specifically did vo-space on the button. It brought up a dialog where I could pick my price ($1 being the default but even if the default is your choice you still have to put that in the blank; otherwse you won't go to your shopping cart and you may not see the reminder to put it in a price; that may be what you left out.) and where I could put in a a discount code or ask to be emailed when the artist releases new music. I found the checkout now button and further on an add to cart button with various choice about checking out now or later etc. I did vo-space on add to cart; I could have just bought but I wanted to check everything for you. Then I found my shopping cart and did vo-space on the checkout button and found myself at the paypal options (you don't have to have a paypal account to do this). From there you should be okay. I suspect that you just assumed you didn't need to type a price in the field if you were going to pay the default. If you still have problems, post again more specifically. If you did this from your i-device instead of your Mac, I can probably take a look at that approach for you too. Of course you had a direct link so didn't have to do the searching steps. Hope this helps. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash!

Need a Tip for the new Garage-BAnd.
Hi all! First of all, thanks hugely to the dude who gave me the tip a while back about using the comma nd period to do what the arrow-keys used to do even though VO doesn't speak it. That totally got me back up and going, and was a huge help! But now I'm kind of stuck again, and I'm hoping some one can help? So I've got a loop that extends beyond where I want the end of my song to be (it didn't before, but it does since I imported it into GB10.whatever it is now and started working on it there). And I used to be able to fix that by just resizing the loop or region, but resizing doesn't seem to quite work the same way now! I mean, the VO command seems to be the same, VO+shift+accent, but the resize function itself doesn't seem to do quite the same thing as it used to. And I can't detect any other way to make my loop cut off at the end of my song. :-( What am I missing? :-( And, since they seem to have changed what a lot of functions are called, I couldn't quite figure out where to look in the help files either! :-) Thanks!

RE: Help Needed on Uninstalling An Application from my Mac Running Maverick
This is exceelent, Chris. Thank you so much. It worked like acharm. Fortunately for me, I had version 3.x of VM Ware.

Believe it or not, I've never uninstalled a single app. On the other hand, I've only installed 5 third party apps and use all but VM Ware Fusion. So I guess that's a good average, eh? (smile) I know that Apple states that all one need do to uninstall an app is to simply put it into the Trash but I have heard through the years that one must do more than this to really uninstall it. I'll be honest, my fear of uninstalling incompletely or incorrectly comes from my many years of working with Windows which, as many of you may know, can turn ugly with just the click of a mouse. In years gone by, if one didn't uninstall something correctly, it could cause major startup problems. While I'm certain this is not the case in OSX, some fears are difficult to dispel.
