I'll paste the text below. This is the Markdown text I keep locally, so you'll
see some links and bits of syntax here and there. It's quite readable, though,
and isn't HTML or anything that will be a headache. That said, the Unhand can
go online, and AppleVis should be pretty nice to mobile devices, so if you want
heading navigation you can try loading the link I sent on the Sense.

###What Is Night Owl?
[Night
Owl](http://www.applevis.com/apps/mac/social-networking/night-owl-aka-yorufukurou)
is the only accessible Twitter client for the Mac, or at least the most
popular among VoiceOver users. With it, you can retweets, manage lists, send
direct messages, save searches, and much more. While most of the app is
relatively simple, some parts can be a bit confusing, and there are some
undocumented shortcuts and features. This guide will walk you through the
basics of the app, and explained most of the features. If audio is your thing,
AppleVis has has a
[Night Owl
podcast.](http://www.applevis.com/podcast/episodes/introduction-yorufukurou-mac-twitter-client-actually-works-voiceover)

This tutorial assumes that you have a basic level of familiarity with
VoiceOver. You don't need to know any advanced commands, but the
basics--navigating the screen, activating buttons and pop-up menu's,
interacting, and so on--are required. Of course, you will also need to already
have a Twitter Account activated–you need to know that accounts user name and
password in order to login. If you don't yet have an account, creating one is
simple and free. To learn more about twitter, and to create your own account,
visit the
[Twitter website.](http://www.twitter.com)

###Signing In
When you first launch Night Owl, you will be prompted to sign into your Twitter
account. If you are not, or if you are already signed into one account but want
to sign into a different one, open Night Owl's preferences with command-comma,
choose the accounts button from the toolbar, then find and activate the Ad
button. You will be taken to a webpage where you enter your Twitter username
and password, and Then press enter to sign in. Assuming your credentials were
correct, you will be asked to grant Night Owl access to your Twitter account;
do so, and you will be returned to the main window. Now that you have
successfully signed in, it's time to see how this app works.

###the Main Window
This is where you read and manage tweets, compose new tweets, find users, and
more. There are several important things here, and we'll examine them one at a
time. To make things easy, we'll go from the top of the window and use vo-right
to move from item to item. Press vo-shift-home (vo-shift-fn-left on Apple
keyboards with no Home key) to get to the top, and you'll land on a text label
telling you the current tab (which is probably Timeline) and the name of the
account you're using. Press vo-right to get to….

The Toolbar
The first important thing you'll find is a toolbar. Interact with it and you'll
see buttons for viewing a user's timeline or the conversation, marking a tweet
as read, and more. While you can certainly use all these buttons if you like,
all of them also have keyboard shortcuts which you will probably find much more
convenient. Stop interacting with this toolbar once you've reviewed it, and
press vo-right. You'll next come to…

The Drawer
Once you land on this item, which VoiceOver identifies simply as Drawer,
interact with it to explore the contents. The Drawer is where information and
management tools for the author of the focused tweet will appear. For example,
you can follow/unfollow, block, or report the user; you can view their profile,
location, and picture; you can see how many followers they have, how many
people follow them, and how may tweets they've posted; and you can see details
on the tweet in focus over in the list.

The one item in here with which you can actually interact is the User Action
Menu. Once you activate this menu, you have several options, all of which are
self-explanatory--Reply, Retweet, Direct Message, etc. The Following Status
submenu is where you go to follow, un-follow, or block a user, and it also
shows you if the user is following you (you'll need to vo-up arrow to see that
last one; plain old arrow keys will skip over it as it is dimmed). Once you're
done, stop interacting with the Drawer, vo-right, and land on…

New Tweet
There are three items associated with writing tweets, and they start just after
the Drawer. Note that you may see an item called just image first; I have no
idea what this is, and it has no label or help tag. Anyway, the first item
we're interested in is an edit field, where you type your tweet. If you are
retweeting with a comment, direct messaging, or replying to a tweet, text will
appear in this field with your cursor at the start or end, as necessary for the
action you're performing. Note that this field is not automatically

 Hi Jürgen.  In Nightowl pressing the spacebar will take you to the oldest 
 unread tweet.  So if you're at the top of the list, pressing the spacebar 
 should do what you want.  As a matter of fact, I mainly use the spacebar to 
 browse tweets.  What I do when launching the app, is hit control 2 to go to 
 my replys tab.  If you get through all unread tweets in a tweet, spacebar 
 will take you to the first unread tweet in the next tab.  So pressing 
 spacebar moves me first to replies, direct mentions, all my list tabs, and 
 finally my main timeline.  When reading through my main timeline, the 
 spacebar moves me past tweets I may have already read in other tabs.
 Hopefully this made sense.

Re: Audio Description from Netflix largely an epic fail

2015-04-20 Thread Brent Harding

I wonder if others had the bug come back several times after doing the sign 
out and back in drill? I found that erasing the data under storage 
management for Netflix had more success, but had to be done every 2 to 4 
episodes. The show itself was absolutely well done with some of the better 
description I've heard, when it wants to work, but it's frustrating when it 
doesn't. I wonder if it's like the CSR said that Apple Accessibility is the 
one to get this one fixed?

Re: A question about making headings on different levels with ms word.

2015-04-20 Thread Barry Hadder

Hi Annie,
I have been able to use the outline, but it does have problems.
I prefer Pages over word, but the outline mode is a feature that Pages really 
should have.  The old one did and I would have thought that they would have 
brought it back by now.  So, it will be good to have another option.
The main problem I have with Word at the moment is that it doesn’t really 
behave and feel like a native OS X app.

Yes of course the outline view, but I can not get the outline view and the

I figured out that command option 1-3 works for headings level 1-3.

 You can choose a style such as a heading level by going to the Home tab of 
 the ribbon area by activating the styles menu and interacting with the styles 
 gallery.
 You can easily assign a keystroke to a style in the keyboard preferences in 
 the tools menu.  Just select format in the categories table and then select 
 the style you want in the other table.  To apply heading 1, the current 
 shortcut is command-option-1.
 
 You can brows the heading levels using the outline view, but note that it is 
 buggy at this time.

 2. When I have got the heading on e.g. level 2 added, the only way to see it 
 is a heading on level two is to press voiceOver +t, and when you will get the

 Hi Jamie, 
 
 Thanks for the tip on activating all the style selections. However, I 
 haven’t found a keystroke that will work like on the PC side. I did locate a 
 list of keystrokes for Word 2016, but the ones for heading styles don’t work 
 for me. It would be nice if I had a keystroke to evoke the various heading 
 styles It would make my work more efficient. On another note, have you been 
 able to create an envelope or label? Since I’m coming from the PC side, the 
 dialog box for this on the Mac side is not as straight forward to me. I 
 struggled for a while trying to make a simple mailing label the other night, 
 but was not successful in the printing of it. It came out blank. I was able

Audio description is not showing up for episode 2, no matter what I do. Close

Audio Description from Netflix largely an epic fail


I called Netflix Customer Service and the woman I spoke with was very friendly 
and sympathetic, and essentially said that the only instructions they had was 
the article I posted earlier. The audio description for Daredevil is completely 
unreliable on my end.  I have it working on episodes 1 and 3, but cannot get it 
to work on 2. At all. No matter what I do.
I have been fussing around with Silver Light on my MacBook, trying every which 
way, trying different browsers and the like to see if I can somehow manage to 
find the controls while it is playing to access the subtitles menu, but 
absolutely no luck. This is proving to be extremely frustrating for my son, who 
really wants to continue to watch Daredevil.  They should have never released 
this until it was more reliable. Fed up.
All that undeserved positive publicity, certainly at least at this time. I am 
grateful they are willing, but this is frankly almost worse than having 
nothing, at least under the circumstances I’ve got.

Re: Audio Description from Netflix largely an epic fail

2015-04-20 Thread Pablo Sandoval

Hi everybody;
Here’s my experience for what it’s worth.
Last week I was able to watch the first 3 episodes on my AppleTV. I did 
initially have to sign out and in a couple of times to get it working.
When I tried to watch episode 4 today I could not get it to work. I ended up 
calling Netflix, and they told me that audio description is temporarily broken 
with regards to AppleTV.
I have not tried yet on IOS.

 I know there are ways of running the above synthesiser on a Mac. 
 
 But it's horribly unstable. 
 
 Putting aside the Infovox voices are there any text to speech products 
 that can be used on OS X that rival eloquence for responsiveness?

He won't see it, because the wording is slightly, only slightly, incorrect. He

This is Chenelle,
I wanted to thank you I have been trying to get help for two months now and no 
one knew what I was talking about? I was wondering if you can give me 
step-by-step instructions on how to download the BrailleTouch able to my

do it right!
Thank you so much I really appreciate it.

 I had a chance to go into an Apple store this morning, so decided to take a

 because they weren't able to demo voiceover, but I liked the form factor, 
 and thought the stuff I was hearing from the video demo was pretty cool.  
 Since I have fourteen days to return it if I don't like it, I decided to go 
 ahead and pre-order one.  I just got the aluminum sports model, because I 
 figure it's highly likely that I'll want to upgrade when newer generations 
 are released, so didn't see the sense in shelling out the extra $200.  
 Looking forward to its arrival and getting to actually put it through its 
 paces.

Place your cursor in the paragraph where you want to apply the style. Then, go 
to format and choose styles. I had to choose all styles before I could see the 
different heading levels. I am doing this from memory, so please forgive any

First, the fact that you cannot send direct messages to people who do not

As to other clients, forget it.  Nightowl is the one and only Twitter client

Voiceover and tables in Microsoft Word on the mac

2015-04-20 Thread Andrew Lamanche

Hi,

I've just tried inserting and navigating a table into a microsoft word document 
on my mac.  The inserting of the table was easy and accessible.  Navigating the 
table also seems to work without having to interact with it.  I tried using 
both tab key and voiceover keys with arrow keys, both seem to let me navigate 
the table and Voiceover gives the cell coordinates very well.  The only thing 
that seems the problem at present is that when I have actually written some 
text into a cell and then tried to modify it by deleting some characters, 
VoiceOver doesn't give feedback on what letters are deleted.  Could someone 
confirm this?  This is really promising and provided Microsoft can fix some 
problems like the one above, we might actually get another word processing app 
on the mac that handles tables well.  Also page transitions in a document 
longer than one page seems fine.  I have set my preferences for Word to wrap 
text to window in preferences.

I've also just noticed the same behaviour when typing text into text areas on 
the feedback page in Microsoft Word.  VoiceOver doesn't give me any feedback.  
I have to move away from the text area and back to read the entire text.

How do I report any problems with Word and voiceOver to Microsoft?

Andrew

Hello, 

Night Owl was updated yesterday. 

The release notes claim that some issues relating to account management were 
addressed. 

You should be running version 2.83.

Re: Eloquence for the Mac.

2015-04-20 Thread sadam ahmed

Not a bad notion at all. 

I’m currently drafting an email to 

accessibil...@apple.com mailto:accessibil...@apple.com so will mention it. 

The perfect solution would be for them to include ETI eloquence in the next 
version of OS X. I can’t be the only person who would like that synth on the 
Mac. 

It took a while but we did get Alex on the iOS products eventually. 

Thanks once again for your feedback regarding this matter.

 Hmm. When you tried it, it worked but you are no longer using it yet you 
 wish it was supported. This is confusing. I don't want to waste the time 
 with it if it really isn't useable. However, I do enjoy Eloquence and if it 
 really worked well, I would use it exclusively on the Mac OS.

 I know there are ways of running the above synthesiser on a Mac. 
 
 But it's horribly unstable. 
 
 Putting aside the Infovox voices are there any text to speech products 
 that can be used on OS X that rival eloquence for responsiveness?

Re: Maybe a stupid question, but does a web site service like this exist?

2015-04-20 Thread Lisette Wesseling

Hi Chris,
Sorry I don't know. I used to do some contract work for them producing braille
letters, but don't have time anymore. They seem a pretty friendly bunch so
perhaps you could contact them and ask how much it is for one letter.
Sorry I can't help. Braille was more expensive than print, but it wasn't 10
pounds. They might have changed their pricing since I last worked for them.

Cheers
Lisette

Importance: High

Guys,

Even if I have to pay a small fee for this, I'm very much willing to do so
within reason, and am totally 100% prepared to do so.

Here is the very most basic of the situation without going into a lot of
detail. I need to send a letter to someone. The issue is, they do not
check their e-mail hardly at all. This however is a letter that needs to
be written. Again, I would much rather not go into the specifics. I will
however at least give you this much information... no. It's is not legal
related in any way, and there is absolutely nothing legally binding that
says I cannot write this person. It's nothing like that, as much as it's
just that they most likely 99.999% chance will not see my e-mail. Trust me.
Physically mailing a hard copy letter would be more reliable. I definitely
do have their address. The question that I have is, I don't have a
printer, and even if I did, I don't have a very reliable way to address the
envelope. I'd have to basically have someone help me do so. The thing is,
due to certain circumstances, the people who would help me address the
letter, as well as print it out for me are very very nosy, and have been
known in the past to read my mail, without my prior concent. Yeah, I know,
downright illegal. I'm not even touching that one. The point is of this
message, does anyone know of a web site which would be accessible with
Voiceover that I could use to either A, type my letter directly into the
web site, or B, upload it as a word document, or text document, etc. then
type the address to be sent to, pay a small printing/shipping cost,
securely check out, then have this service basically print and mail the
letter on my behalf. I'd say on average, this letter won't be more than
probably 2, maybe! pushing it, 2 and a half 8 by 11 pages long. We're not
talking a huge huge lengthy letter here.

I don't have very good access to a public library nor post office to ask
for help. I'm kind a in a rural area. Otherwise, I would.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Chris.

 Hi,
 
 is Night Owl the only accessible twitter client for the Mac you know of?
 
 My issues with this app: 
 
 1. The timeline scrolls always to the top automatically and it seems to be 
 insignificant which settings I’ve set. I tried different settings but it had 
 no impact on this behaviour.
 2. I’m not able to find a support address except for twitter accounts of the 
 developers. But I’m not able to send direct messages to people who don’t 
 follow me and so there’s no way to reach them.
 
 Any ideas?
 
 All the best
 Jürgen

Re: A question about making headings on different levels with ms word.

2015-04-20 Thread Eileen Misrahi

Hi Jamie, 

Thanks for the tip on activating all the style selections. However, I haven’t 
found a keystroke that will work like on the PC side. I did locate a list of 
keystrokes for Word 2016, but the ones for heading styles don’t work for me. It 
would be nice if I had a keystroke to evoke the various heading styles It would 
make my work more efficient. On another note, have you been able to create an 
envelope or label? Since I’m coming from the PC side, the dialog box for this 
on the Mac side is not as straight forward to me. I struggled for a while 
trying to make a simple mailing label the other night, but was not successful 
in the printing of it. It came out blank. I was able to print a label on the PC 
side in Word 2010, so I know that I’m not out of ink. Again, thanks for the 
tip. 

Cheers, 
Eileen

Hi Jamie and Eileen.

Ok this is a little tricky, I figured it out, but I have two comments.
1 It would be great if we could use some keystrokes.
2. When I have got the heading on e.g. level 2 added, the only way to see it is 
a heading on level two is to press voiceOver +t, and when you will get the 
fontsizes and you can guess, which level the heading is on, is there a better

Re: A question about making headings on different levels with ms word.

2015-04-20 Thread Eileen Misrahi

Hi Jamie, 

I was successful in adding a heading 1 level in a doc, but what is missing is 
having VO announce what type of style one has used. This is obtained with JAWS 
on the PC side. The only way I knew it was applied was using the speak 
attribute VO keystroke of VO-T. I know the font size of heading 1 style is 16 
ptc. So, I’m not sure if obtaining more description of attributes in a Word doc 
is a MS or an Apple glitch. Hence, I guess I will place this on my running bug 
list to MS. Hopefully, MS will improve their Mac keystrokes in order for more 
advance users of Word will think about making the switch. so far, even with a 
learning curve, I am not convinced to use Word on the Mac. To me, it’s very 
labor intensive, which would slow down productivity. 

Thanks 

Eileen again.

Re: A question about making headings on different levels with ms word.

2015-04-20 Thread Barry Hadder

You can choose a style such as a heading level by going to the Home tab of the 
ribon area by activating the styles menu and interacting with the styles 
gallery.
You can easily assign a keystroke to a style in the keyboard preferences in the 
tools menu.  Just select format in the categories table and then select the 
style you want in the other table.  To apply heading 1, the current shortcut is 
command-option-1.

You can brows the heading levels using the outline view, but note that it is 
buggy at this time.

CargoLifter

Hi all,
Since the invention of MailDrop, I don’t believe I will be needing CargoLifter 
anymore. How can I remove it from the Mac? Thanks.

Re: A question about making headings on different levels with ms word.

2015-04-20 Thread Eileen Misrahi

Hi Jamie, 

I was successful in adding a heading 1 level in a doc, but what is missing is 
having VO announce what type of style one has used. This is obtained with JAWS 
on the PC side. The only way I knew it was applied was using the speak 
attribute VO keystroke of VO-T. I know the font size of heading 1 style is 16 
ptc. So, I’m not sure if obtaining more description of attributes in a Word doc 
is a MS or Apple glitch. Hence, I guess I will place this on my running bug 
list to MS. Hopefully, MS will improve their Mac keystrokes inorder for more 
advance users of Word will think about making the switch. so far, even with a 
learning curve, I am not convinced to use Word on the Mac. To me, it’s very 
labor intensive, which would slow down productivity. 

Thanks 

Eileenagain.

Re: Automatically enabling and disabling Quick Nav when apps gain focus

2015-04-20 Thread David Griffith

Well I achieved precisely this under Mavericks with no problems but to 
be honest I disabled all activities when I upgraded to Yosemite as there 
was a suggestion that Activities were setting up a Voiceover Performance 
lag and I concluded it was no real hardship to press the left and right 
cursor keys to turn Quick Nav on and off. It may be then a possibility 
that a problem was introduced in Yosemite but I will check later when I 
am on my Mac.


But yest in theory there should be no difficulties with setting up 
activities to have the status of quick nav disabled or enabled when Mail 
or Safari are loaded.


You may have to be more specific about what steps you took in setting up 
the activity for us to comment on whether you are doing anything wrong.

I tried to create an activity associated with the Mail program, in which I 
disabled quick nav.  However, when Mail gains focus, the status of quick nav 
remains unchanged.  I tried to create a second one that enabled quick nav and 
associated it with Safari thinking both might need to exist, but the state of 
the quick nav toggle doesn’t change when I command tab between the two apps.

Is what I want to do possible, and should I be using activities to try and 
accomplish it? If so, does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Re: Night Owl

Hi Alex,
here’s the issue:
I’m on top of the tweet list in the timeline table. I leave Night Owl for 
several hours while I’m away doing other things but the Mac is still switched 
on and Night Owl is running. When I’m back at my Mac and check Night Owl for 
the next time I’m still on top of the tweet list but on the newest tweet and 
not at the position in the tweet list I was before when I left my Computer 
alone. All I can do now is to scrol down manually to find the position where I 
left several hours ago.
Is this more clear? Do you know this behaviour?
All the best

Re: A question about making headings on different levels with ms word.

2015-04-20 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen

Hi Barry.

Yes of course the outline view, but I can not get the outline view and the 
draft view to work, but things are promising, as far as I can see.

I figured out that command option 1-3 works for headings level 1-3.

Best regards Annie.
 Den 20/04/2015 kl. 18.05 skrev Barry Hadder bhad...@gmail.com:
 
 You can choose a style such as a heading level by going to the Home tab of 
 the ribon area by activating the styles menu and interacting with the styles 
 gallery.
 You can easily assign a keystroke to a style in the keyboard preferences in 
 the tools menu.  Just select format in the categories table and then select 
 the style you want in the other table.  To apply heading 1, the current 
 shortcut is command-option-1.
 
 You can brows the heading levels using the outline view, but note that it is 
 buggy at this time.

 2. When I have got the heading on e.g. level 2 added, the only way to see it 
 is a heading on level two is to press voiceOver +t, and when you will get the

 Thanks for the tip on activating all the style selections. However, I

 for me. It would be nice if I had a keystroke to evoke the various heading 
 styles It would make my work more efficient. On another note, have you been 
 able to create an envelope or label? Since I’m coming from the PC side, the 
 dialog box for this on the Mac side is not as straight forward to me. I 
 struggled for a while trying to make a simple mailing label the other night,

Re: Automatically enabling and disabling Quick Nav when apps gain focus

Hi Ed,

just tried it on an existing Activity of mine and it worked fine. Did you check
1. Quick Nav on in the settings of this Activity?
2. the checkbox to enable the Quick Nav settings section?
So you need to check two checkboxes then it should work. Sometimes Activities 
seem not to work for I don’t know what reason. Restarting VO should help.

Re: Maybe a stupid question, but does a web site service like this exist?

2015-04-20 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries


l-mail's prices are here:

https://l-mail.com/scripts/static/pricing.php

So in the US it's $1.47 for credit and $2.08 for debit cards for a 
three-page letter. There is also a $3.74 surcharge if you don't open an 
account with a deposit, which implies that you can use their service 
without setting up an account. There is also a charge of $.15 charge for 
removal of their logo from your letter.

Importance: High

Guys,

Even if I have to pay a small fee for this, I'm very much willing to 
do so within reason, and am totally 100% prepared to do so.


Here is the very most basic of the situation  without going into a 
lot of detail.  I need to send a letter to someone. The issue is, 
they do not check their e-mail hardly at all. This however is a 
letter that needs to be written.  Again, I would much rather not go 
into the specifics.  I will however at least give you this much 
information...  no.  It's is not legal related in any way, and there 
is absolutely nothing legally binding that says I cannot write this 
person.  It's nothing like that, as much as it's just that they most 
likely 99.999% chance will not see my e-mail. Trust me.  Physically 
mailing a hard copy letter would be more reliable. I definitely do 
have their address.  The question that I have is, I don't have a 
printer, and even if I did, I don't have a very reliable way to 
address the envelope.  I'd have to basically have someone help me do 
so. The thing is, due to certain circumstances, the people who would 
help me address the letter, as well as print it out for me are very 
very nosy, and have been known in the past to read my mail, without 
my prior concent.  Yeah, I know, downright illegal.  I'm not even 
touching that one.  The point is of this message, does anyone know 
of a web site which would be accessible with Voiceover that I could 
use to either A, type my letter directly into the web site, or B, 
upload it as a word document, or text document, etc. then type the 
address to be sent to, pay a small printing/shipping cost, securely 
check out, then have this service basically print and mail the 
letter on my behalf.  I'd say on average, this letter won't be more 
than probably 2, maybe! pushing it, 2 and a half 8 by 11 pages 
long.  We're not talking a huge huge lengthy letter here.


I don't have very good access to a public library nor post office to 
ask for help.  I'm kind a in a rural area. Otherwise, I would.


Does anyone have any thoughts?

Chris.

 Hi all,
 
 Here is something else I am going to venture in to: VoiceOver training 
 voluntarily. As a refresher I am going to use this tutorial-based site 
 located here

 I may have work very soon.

I second that. Espeak would be far better.

 Hi!
 Why not ask them to add espeak.
 It has more languages.

 Hmm. When you tried it, it worked but you are no longer using it yet you 
 wish it was supported. This is confusing. I don't want to waste the time 
 with it if it really isn't useable. However, I do enjoy Eloquence and if it 
 really worked well, I would use it exclusively on the Mac OS.

 I don't think this will be doable because I can't  get the wine.app.  
 Anybody have it? Even when I go to the homepage, the download link for the 
 wine app don't seem to exist. And the one that is in the README file simply 
 isn't found.

 I know there are ways of running the above synthesiser on a Mac. 
 
 But it's horribly unstable. 
 
 Putting aside the Infovox voices are there any text to speech products 
 that can be used on OS X that rival eloquence for responsiveness?
