Re: GTK and Voiceover
Hi Brandon, peace to you too. Under Windows GTK is totally inacessible. I don't know under macOS but I guess you're right.

Disk permissions repair
Hi folks, I just did a permissions repair and everything said it was repaired except this first row which reads Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent” has been modified and will not be repaired. I'm not highly technical so haven't a clue what this means. I've no idea what this file is or how it could have been modified? Should I worry about this or leave it alone. The Mac seems to be working fine. Thanks for any guidance on this. Cheers Lisette -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Office for Mac 2016 Preview
Hello to the list. I have just now downloaded and installed this Microsoft office for mac 2016 preview, and what a bitter disappointment this is so far. Voiceover does not seem to read any of the text in my preliminary try out of the Microsoft Word application, everything else seems to read just fine.

Re: Office for Mac 2016 Preview
Hi guys. I realize this is some extra money, but if I ever have to run Windows because I really need a program I can’t get on the Mac, I have thought that I would just spring for a little Windows laptop. I know you can put windows on the Mac, but I have read a little about what some of you have done, and I think that if ever have to do it, I would rather have a separate system running the Windows program. I still have JAWS, and I could just update it. The Mac and Windows computers can read files produced on the other one, so I see no real advantage to mixing the systems. Maybe I am wrong about that, but at this point, I’m going to stick with iWorks.

Re: keystroke I can't make work. What am I not doing?
Hi Pamela. When I do this, I first select all the files I want to delete. Then I press command delete to send all the files to the trash. Then use command shift delete to start the emptying the trash process. I do it in Finder while in the downloads folder. This may be an extra step, but it helps if I happen to delete something I didn’t want to delete because the computer asks you if you really want to empty the trash.

Re: keystroke I can't make work. What am I not doing?
Hi folks, Thanks for your assistance with a keystroke I should have known. Much appreciated. I accomplished the deletions with no errors. If I may I would like to ask another mundane question. When I type text in to a text box on a website, in the same text box attempt to enter a url, a space is entered in the midst of my url. An example would be mac visionaries.com Do I need to have my roter set in such a way to stop this? Thanks again for all of your help.

Re: Office for Mac 2016 Preview

Re: Touchme 5 display braille.
Hello Gigi. Firstly I did what you have suggested and it doesn’t work. After that, I have rebooted the iPhone and went to settings / general / accessibility / VoiceOver / braille. From there I was able to pair the devices together. My question is what command I can give to iOs throw the Braille display. For instance I would like to know how to press home button to close apps and return to the main screen, if it is possible. Anyway, I’ll look on its website searching for information in that sense. It could be also possible that this display is output only and there is no possibility to give commands. Have a lovely time.

Re: AmadeusPro, audio data and track characteristics
Hi Phil, Amadeus will down-sample to the format you're pasting to. I suppose it's possible that some aliasing issues could occur and people might suggest you do the original recording at the same bit rate and depth, but I doubt the human ear will hear much discernible difference. From what I've read, there's no advantage in recording at a higher sampling rate and bit depth if you know the final product is going to be down-sampled, unless of course you keep the original recordings for use at the original specifications at some future time when technology has moved on a bit. To that extent, recording at the maximum possible sampling and bit depth is kind of future-proofing you, if you're going to hang on to those original recordings.

Re: Touchme 5 display braille.
Galriel, have you tried pairing it yet with your IOS device? That is, when you go into Settings, and get to VoiceOver, is your braille display on the list after you have turned Bluetooth on on both devies? If it is, I bet the paccping pin is either or 1234. If not, maybe the pairing pin that is listed for screen readers will work. It will cost you only frustration to find out. If your display is not shown once Bluetooth is turned on with both devices, it may not be supported with VoiceOver. Hope so.

Re: Touchme 5 display braille.
Hi there Most of the braille commands are pretty standard for most braille displays, although there may be some differences like extra buttons on some displays. If you could give us some information, many of us could help you, even if we didn't have that particular display. For instance, does your display have keyboard input?

Hi, If using ios 7 or later, do a four finger double tap on the screen. If IOS 6 or earlier, visit settings, general, accessibility, voiceover, voiceover practice. Here you can press buttons or combinations of buttons on your braille display to find out what they do. Best, Erik Burggraaf .

VMWare Fusion: success with directly passing the CAPSLock key through to Windows
Hello all, I am very happy to report that I have found a solution to give Windows complete control of the CAPS LOCK KEY while using it in a VMWare virtual machine. I now have full use of my CAPS LOCK KEY while using Windows in VMWare. For example, with JAWS, I can use it as my JAWS KEY, and I can press it twice quickly to toggle CAPS LOCK on or off. While I was willing to settle for using another key like the GRAVE ACCENT KEY as my screen reading key, or even to map my CAPS LOCK KEY to an INSERT KEY, I wanted to see if I could find a solution that would allow the CAPS LOCK KEY truly to be passed through to Windows. The reason is primarily because screen readers don't always treat the CAPS LOCK KEY identically to how the INSERT KEY is treated, even while using a dedicated laptop layout. In JAWS, for example, there are many key mappings which are different, such as INSERT+8 (open the keyboard manager) as opposed to CAPS LOCK+8 (perform a left mouse click). While JAWS key mappings can be changed, and while I love using VMWare Fusion and find it very efficient, I really wanted my keyboard to work in a more familiar manner. If anybody is wondering whether the CAPS LOCK KEY can be passed through directly, the answer is yes, and here is my solution. The short version is that in Mac OS X, we’ll be mapping the CAPS LOCK KEY to something entirely different. Then in the VM, we’ll install SharpKeys and map that different key back to CAPS LOCK. While this sounds a little crude, it’s the best solution I’ve come up with thus far and really isn’t too complicated to set up if you know your way around Mac OS X. The irony is that while you have this configured, you won’t be able to use CAPS LOCK within Mac OS X itself. It will only work when working with your virtual machine. You can select text then choose “Make upper case” or “Make lower case” to compensate for this. These options are located in the menu bar under Edit Transformations. 1. Open up System Preferences. Select the Keyboard button, then the Modifier keys button. Change CAPS LOCK to “no action” then hit OK and exit out of System Preferences. 2. Download and install Seil from https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/seil.html. It is a small app that lets you customize the functionality of the CAPS LOCK KEY as well as some other, international, keys. I believe this software is reputable, but I definitely understand and share the hesitation that many will feel about installing an app from outside the App Store that you may never have heard of. 3. Once installed, open the Seil app from your applications folder. You can navigate through this app by tabbing around. Find the tree of settings. At the top you will see text that says, “expand tree, then change settings and change key codes”. Arrow down and the first group within the tree view should be “change the CAPS LOCK KEY”. Expand with a RIGHT ARROW then DOWN ARROW to the first and only setting you need to change, “change the CAPS LOCK KEY”. Reassign the caps lock key to something else. I assigned it to key code 110. This is the super key in Linux or the applications key in Windows. Since my Mac doesn’t have this key anyway, this shouldn’t cause any other key conflicts and I think should be a safe bet. Tab to the checkbox that indicates you want this setting to be applied and check it, then TAB to the edit box and enter the appropriate keycode, 110 in my case. You can now close the window with CMD+W. 4. Now, whenever you press the CAPS LOCK key in Windows it will open up a context menu. This is not what we want, so go ahead and install SharpKeys to your virtual machine from https://sharpkeys.codeplex.com. It is very easy to navigate. Open it up. Reassign special@_Applications Key to caps lock, and hit the write to registry button. Then reboot the VM or log out and back in. Voila, you now have full use of the CAPS LOCK KEY within Windows. 5. You should easily be able to undo this change in Seil if desired. Sorry that this was so long winded but I wanted to provide a reasonable amount of detail for those interested. It may well be that somebody else has a much more brilliant solution than mine. Cheers. Grant Grant -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Touchme 5 display braille.
One option is VoiceOver's help mode. Tap four fingers on the screen twice, and everything you do from then on will be described instead of acted out. This works for touches, but you can also do it while the display is connected to get VO to describe the function of any buttons. To exit this mode, do the same four-finger double tap again, or do a two-finger scrub.

Re: Disk permissions repair
Hi lisette i’ve been told from apple specialists that it’s a desktop remote message and can be ignored, having, having had that same! message over time.

I'm not highly technical so haven't a clue what this means. I've no idea what this file is or how it could have been modified? Should I worry about this or leave it alone.

Re: Office for Mac 2016 Preview
Hi, Partial sight should be just fine with Office. It’s the absence of hooks for VO to latch onto in the editable area of the Document pane that makes it inaccessible to a VoiceOver user. If a developer uses custom elements in their design, without some major accessibility hooks programmed in, we’re lost. Later...

However although i haven't got Windows on my Mac and when I did have, it was much better. I remember on this list, there was someone who said they were working for Microsoft and she or he were going to look at the Mac to figure out how to Make Microsoft Office accessible for the Mac. I remember how much people questioned her or his commitment as she/he was adamant that Microsoft would be coming to the Mac. So never believe what anyone says unless it really happens. I so want an accessible Microsoft application to come to the Mac. I have heard though, that someone who has partial sight can use word on the Mac. Is this true? A colleague's husband has a Mac and he is using Microsoft Office so his wife says and when I said it could not be used with Voice Over, she got in to a strop with me as she said her husband was using Office applications.

I realize this is some extra money, but if I ever have to run Windows because I really need a program I can’t get on the Mac, I have thought that I would just spring for a little Windows laptop. I know you can put windows on the Mac, but I have read a little about what some of you have done, and I think that if ever have to do it, I would rather have a separate system running the Windows program. I still have JAWS, and I could just update it. The Mac and Windows computers can read files produced on the other one, so I see no real advantage to mixing the systems. Maybe I am wrong about that, but at this point, I’m going to stick with iWorks.

Let's see how this will pan out when the full version is release.
