I find it helpful for quickly sending tweets or messages, opening

I'd taken the previous day, so simply told Siri to "show pictures I
took yesterday". Yes, it's easier to do things on a Mac than an
iPhone with a keyboard, but it's often easier with Siri, even on the
Mac. I might not have Messages open, or I might be in the middle of
something and want to dash off a reply as soon as I can. Or I might
be writing something, and just need to check a definition before
typing a word; Siri is far faster than typing the word, looking it
up, and finding the web content holding the definitions. The latter
is more thorough, but all I need is a quick check. Finally, Siri is
great for quickly playing music, especially for Apple Music
subscribers. Even if you don't use that service, Siri can play any
song, artist, or playlist in your library, just like on iOS. Don't
want to deal with iTunes? Just tell Siri to play a song, or that you
love or don't like the current song, or any similar commands.

I don't know why Siri is on the Mac as I find it very weird being
able to tell Siri what to do as I'm use to it on the I phone but not
so on the Mac.  You see, I'm use to typing on the Mac and dictating
on my I phone.

So out of interest, what will people use Siri for on the Mac?  Apart
from asking Siri daft questions, and asking Siri to send your
messages and short replies to your e-mails, what else can you do as
you can't  take your I Mac or Mac Mini out of the house!

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Jonathan Mosen
I've taken a read of what's available about the new Karabina Elements, as I'm 
really keen to get this functionality back. I wasn't able to work out how to 
create a configuration file that remaps the capslock key. If just one of us 
could get to the bottom of the way to do this, we could make the config file 
available. I've written to the developer but haven't had an answer as yet.

 Hello all, 
 I did a stupid thing and upgraded to Sierra without properly checking to 
 see whether *everything* worked. I guess it never occurred to me that 
 karabiner and Seil would be the things that would break, but there ya go. 
 Ergo, functionally my virtual machines are broken, since now I can't use 
 the Mac's keyboard to interact with JAWS or NVDA, since my caps remapping 
 is gone. I also used Karabiner to remap my mechanical keyboard at work in 
 some very specific ways, since it's a very strange little keyboard and the 
 layout was just very fiddly, so that's not much fun either. But the upshot 
 is, has anyone found another solution that works for remapping? Ideally, 
 something that still allows me to remap caps lock, since I still actually 
 use some of the other commonly remapped keys like the tilde key, etc. I 
 know I can't be the only person who relies heavily on VMWare and Windows 
 along with Sierra, and someone else must be looking for a solution as 
 well. 
 thanks for any advice!

Hi Kawal,

Correct, VO-Left and VO-Right work fine in the mail app. It’s just the tab 
order which is not working correctly. Since tabbing can interact automatically, 
it’s often a very efficient way to navigate through a MacOS application.

where the number is being entered as you enter a phone number. Double tapping

Not sure if this is just me on my iPhone 6s+ but I’ve just found a couple of 
oddities.

Firstly the delete button on the phone keypad says button not delete like it 
used to,

I’m sure in the public beta it said delete but can’t be sure of that one.

It is still there just not labelled and it works fine.

Is anyone else seeing the same thing?

The second thing I’ve noticed is that during a phone call where I had to setup 
a pin number for something  during the call I hadn’t noticed my phone had 
locked the screan while I was talking

When I had to insert my pin code details I unlocked the phone and the keypad 
was no longer being picked up as as having the keys pressed  yet the pad was 
giving the tones each time the keys were touched.
Another oddity,
Just wondering if this is happening with anyone else on other devices

Re: universal copy/paste not working

2016-09-24 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
You're lucky for even some of the time working, as I tried literally 
probably about 30 times doing identically what was mentioned with Text Edit. 
It doesn't work over here, trust me.


I wasn't gonna say anything, as I know there are those on this list who'd 
say I was being a cry baby, and wouldn't believe me.  I was therefore just 
waiting for others to say it don't work, before I, too, confirmed.  Now that 
you all know I'm not! just complaining, it really doesn't work, what's with 
it?

Hallo Anouk,
I experienced both: sometimes universal clipboard works and sometimes not. I 
additional experience sluggishness related to iCloud. Ones I deleted a pdf 
file in iCloud Drive and it took several hours until it was gonne on all my 
other devices, even though all devices were connected to the internet. That’s 
one reason why I personally haven’t left Dropbox yet. It’s much more 
reliable and faster then iCloud, unfortunately. I’d love to shift completely 
to iCloud Drive. And so my guess is universal clipboard sometimes needs more 
time as well to sync.

All the best
Jürgen

 Hi John.
 
 What I'd like to do is if I have an I phone, Mac or Mac Mini and 
 because I'm using the same ID for all, because I have composed my 
 signature in my mail I Cloud account, regardless of whether I'm 
 sending from an Alias or my main e-mail, I can select the same 
 signature that I might have written regardless of what device I'm 
 using.  Just like if I had composed an I message on my phone, and then 
 finished the same on my Mac.  Do you understand what I'm saying?  I 
 want a globabl signature that will work any where despite what device 
 you are composing from.  May be the same as the universal copy

Grant, thanks for explaining this.  I wasn’t aware you could remap external to

Re: Whart will people use Siri for on the Mac?

I like Siri, I can yell at my computer now and it responds.:)

No I like opening applications or quick dictation.  Sometimes you want to know 
something random like the net worth of Mountain Man or something odd. :)

Re: Signatures again.

2016-09-24 Thread John Panarese
   I’d have to check to see if mail signatures are supposed to actually sync 
over. For some reason, I recall having to do them myself again on each system. 
You might want to uncheck Mail and recheck it again on the Mini in System Prefs 
in iCloud settings.

I was so happy with the fresh install as there were no hitches.  I just found

I am sure we will all have a use for Siri at some point as at the moment, I 
love mail as it's so clean and the whole interface for the new operating system 
is one of the best I've seen to date.  We should thank all the testers for 
working so hard sending in bug reports and most importantly persuading Apple to 
fix things.

Re: Bugs in Apple Mail with MacOS 10.12

2016-09-24 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
I locate the mailboxes table with VO left and right arrow with no problem.

I hardly use the tab and shift key when operating mail.  It's always vo left 
arrow or VO right arrow.

I don't even use the command J for jump either.  I work in the modern view and 
just expand messages and read that way.

 To the left of this message there is a signature pop up button and I can't

 Sierra but can see all the text in my I cloud signature settings.  I find 
 this so frustrating.

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Grant
Hi Traci,

I don’t see why not as this is exactly the kind of use case for Karabiner. But 
I’m going to wait until the Sierra version is a little more mature before 
giving it a go as it’s only in the pre-release stage and everything has to be 
edited manually in configuration files. On their website, there is info that 
you can read through to learn how to build the configuration files.

Re: Bugs in Apple Mail with MacOS 10.12

Hello Kawal,

The bug is that you cannot locate the mailboxes table while navigating through 
the window with Shift-Tab. If you’re using the Tab key, you’ll be able to see 
it without any problem. Again, this only applies to MacOS Sierra.

 Wondering if you folks can confirm the following:
 
 1. You can't Shift-Tab to the mailboxes table as it will not appear in the

 need to tab several times until you wrap back around to the mailboxes 
 table.
 2. If you are in the mailboxes table and press VO-Fn-Right Arrow (that’s 
 VO-End), Mail freezes and needs to be restarted to continue using it.
 3. I’ll admit I haven’t exhausted all possibilities here, but can’t change 
 the contents of the favourites bar via VO’s drag and drop or via the 
 “mouse button locking” method that used to work.
 4. Unless you hide the favourites bar, each folder in the favourites bar 
 now appears in the tab order. I’ll admit this is more of a “change in 
 behaviour” than a bug.
 
 Would love to hear your thoughts.
 
 Thanks!

Hey guys,

The jump command, VO-J, is useful but only works if you are either in the 
mailboxes table or the messages list. It won’t work if you are in any other 
part of the window. Still, it’s a great suggestion and I’ll work on retraining 
my muscle memory until the tab order bug is addressed. Again, thanks guys!

Has anyone tried doing VO-End, that’s VO-FN-Right arrow, while interacting with 
the mailboxes table? On my machines, this causes the mail app to lock up.

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Grant
Hi Scott,

Unfortunately not, the caps lock key is not passed directly through to a 
virtual machine unless you use a third-party utility to remap it to something 
else. A few of us were using a couple utilities called Karabiner and Seal to do 
this, but those do not yet function under Sierra.

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Grant
Hi Megan,

A new version of Karabiner is being developed for Sierra. Currently however, 
you have to remap the key by creating a configuration file manually. Here is 
the info in case you’d like to give it a shot: 
https://github.com/tekezo/Karabiner-Elements 


Until it’s released, I’ve gone back to using the accent key as my screen 
reading key as E.T. has suggested. But I really do miss having the caps lock 
key working as the screen reading key.

Re: Whart will people use Siri for on the Mac?

2016-09-24 Thread Alex Hall
I find it helpful for quickly sending tweets or messages, opening apps, getting 
the definitions or spellings of words, and looking for files/pictures. For 
instance, I needed to find a particular picture I'd taken the previous day, so 
simply told Siri to "show pictures I took yesterday". Yes, it's easier to do 
things on a Mac than an iPhone with a keyboard, but it's often easier with 
Siri, even on the Mac. I might not have Messages open, or I might be in the 
middle of something and want to dash off a reply as soon as I can. Or I might 
be writing something, and just need to check a definition before typing a word; 
Siri is far faster than typing the word, looking it up, and finding the web 
content holding the definitions. The latter is more thorough, but all I need is 
a quick check. Finally, Siri is great for quickly playing music, especially for 
Apple Music subscribers. Even if you don't use that service, Siri can play any 
song, artist, or playlist in your library, just like on iOS. Don't want to deal 
with iTunes? Just tell Siri to play a song, or that you love or don't like the 
current song, or any similar commands.

Re: scanners and the mac for use with docu scan plus

2016-09-24 Thread Erik Burggraaf
Docuscan plus should use any Twain compatible scanner on your Mac. my guess 
is that you forgotten to install the can and drivers and utilities that 
came with your scanner for the Mac .if they didn't come on a CD with your 
scanner you'll probably have to download them off the internet. hope this 
helps, Erik

Whart will people use Siri for on the Mac?

2016-09-24 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hi.

I don't know why Siri is on the Mac as I find it very weird being able to tell 
Siri what to do as I'm use to it on the I phone but not so on the Mac.  You 
see, I'm use to typing on the Mac and dictating on my I phone.

So out of interest, what will people use Siri for on the Mac?  Apart from 
asking Siri daft questions, and asking Siri to send your messages and short 
replies to your e-mails, what else can you do as you can't  take your I Mac or 
Mac Mini out of the house!

Kawal.

In Mail preferences, when you are looking at the iCloud signature, there is

Hi John.

What I'd like to do is if I have an I phone, Mac or Mac Mini and because I'm 
using the same ID for all, because I have composed my signature in my mail I 
Cloud account, regardless of whether I'm sending from an Alias or my main 
e-mail, I can select the same signature that I might have written regardless of 
what device I'm using.  Just like if I had composed an I message on my phone, 
and then finished the same on my Mac.  Do you understand what I'm saying?  I 
want a globabl signature that will work any where despite what device you are 
composing from.  May be the same as the universal copy and paste feature that 
people have been talking about.  I must find the Apple Viz Podcast which 
explains it.  If anyone has that link please post it or send me off list please.

To the left of this message there is a signature pop up button and I can't 
select my signature that I wrote a few months ago because I have installed 
Sierra but can see all the text in my I cloud signature settings.  I find this 
so frustrating.

Thanks.

Re: Difference between smart and ordinary mailboxes

2016-09-24 Thread Alex Hall
A mailbox is essentially a folder. Some, like inbox or drafts, are pre-built; 
others are created by the user. The best these can do is have messages filtered 
into them by simple rules, usually set up on the server side for IMAP accounts.

Smart mailboxes also hold messages, but they can get their contents by much 
more complex rules. For instance, you might make a smart mailbox that has all 
messages sent in October 2015, with attachments, from Alice or Bob. Think of 
the full power of a mail search, but with the ability to save the results and 
have them update in real time. If your mailbox is for all mail with some 
specific phrase in the subject, that will update itself anytime you get an 
email with that phrase in the subject. If you've ever used smart folders in 
Finder, or smart playlists in iTunes, this is the same thing.

Weird issue here.  I cannot capitalize letters.  It is like my shift keys are

Difference between smart and ordinary mailboxes

2016-09-24 Thread Agent086b
Hi all,
after installing Sierra the other day I could not get Mac Mail to work at all,. 
It kept crashing. After an hour and a half with Apple care we resolved the 
problem. I now have to rebuild my previous mailbox structure. What is the 
difference between ordinary mailboxes and smart ones? 
Sure glad I purchased Extended Apple Care when I got the Mac. It runs out at 
the end of this month! Got to be lucky sometimes!
Max.

A Bug in File volt

2016-09-24 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hi.

Have found a bug in File Volt so if you report to Apple, please report this bug 
for me.

Once you set up File Volt, before you restart the computer to enable the 
process, please do turn off Voice Over to make the Mac restart or the process 
will not complete and you will be going round in circles my friend and I 
figured it out.

Thanks.

Signatures again.

2016-09-24 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hi.

Just have installed Sierra on to two of my computers namely the Mac Mini and I 
Mac after a clean install.

Process went well and I'm very happy with it all.

Now I'm just setting up my Macs as I like them and have one problem though.

I have a signature in I Cloud which I can see meaning I can read the signature 
name and all the text I wrote in it but I can't add or drag it to where I want 
it to be so that it won't appear at the end of my text.

How does one do that please?

I'd like a step by step guide if possible.

Thanks.

Kawal.

PayPal digital gift store

2016-09-24 Thread Traci Duncan
Hello, I usually use the PayPal digital gift store to purchase iTunes gift 
codes, however, I’m having a hard time with the website today.  For some reason 
I cannot get past the shopping cart page.  Actually, even though the webpage 
title says it is the shopping cart, I cannot locate anything inside the page to 
tell me so, nor can I find a log in or sign in link/button.  This isn’t typical 
behavior.  I’ve tried on both Safari and Chrome.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Please Join Me in Requesting That The New Night Mode Feature, introduced in the Latest Version of the iOS Twitter App, Be Made VoiceOver Accessible

2016-09-24 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

Recently, Twitter introduced a new accessibility feature called Night Mode.

As posted by I-Accessibility, Quote, Twitter for iOS has updated their app
with a feature called Night Mode that changes the app's color scheme to
allow for higher contrast text. This feature allows for users to read tweets
easier by showing text on a dark background with light colored text. ...
Turning on this feature will instantly switch your device to Night mode, End
Quote.
http://iaccessibility.net/index.php/2016/09/24/quick-tip-enable-night-mode-i
os-twitter-app/

Unfortunately, as was the case when Moments was introduced, the Night Mode
feature cannot be accessed when VoiceOver is enabled.

Please join me in requesting that Night Mode be made available even when
VoiceOver is enabled.

Post your request in the App Store as a review, send a tweet to both
@support and @Twitter, and send your request to Twitter via email at
supp...@twitter.com.

Thank you,

Mark

Also, you probably have local shops that can do this less expensively.

Re: found IOS 10 bugs

2016-09-24 Thread Scott Granados
I have noticed the second not the first and the return to call has worked for 
me as well.

Could I add a third?

In the public release / 10.0.1 production release the phone app freezes and 
either needs to be killed or will crash and you need to press again from the 
doc.

Happens once in a while, not sure what sets up this condition but I notice 
especially while in the recents tab.

Also I tried my cannon scanner  that, is used on my windows machine and the

Re: Selecting photos from albums in iMovie?

2016-09-24 Thread Alex Hall
I eventually got this to work. Don't ask me why, but it looks like some file or 
database got only partly upgraded, or deleted and not re-created, during the 
update to Sierra. After following some leads online, I opened iTunes, iMovie, 
and Photos all at once, and there were the albums, right in iMovie like I 
expected. I also checked that the Mac was set to download all files from 
iCloud, which it already was, but had it not been that would have caused 
problems too. In any case, it seems to work for the moment.

A Happy Follow-up to an Audio Described Movie Question Originally Posted back in February, 2016

2016-09-24 Thread M. Taylor
Hello All,

I am posting this to both the V iPhone and Mac Visionaries mailing lists.

Back in February of 2016, I posted a question with the subject line of "A
Question About Audio Descriptive Movies in iTunes".  I will paste in the
original message, below my signature.

In that message, I wanted to know if movie rentals contain the audio
description track just as the purchased movies do.

More specifically, however, I was commenting on the fact that one of my
favorite movies, "Edge of Tomorrow", starring Tom Cruz, did not appear to
have the audio description track, available in theaters, included in its
iTunes rental download package.  A short time later, a friend of mine
actually purchased the movie and confirmed that it, also, did not contain
the audio description track.  In all fairness, however, nowhere in the movie
description did iTunes claim that the movie had an audio description track.


Okay, a short time after confirming that "Edge of Tomorrow" did not include
audio description, I sent an email via the iTunes movie portal, requesting
that the track be added to this particular title.  I made it very clear that
such a track existed as I personally enjoyed it in the theater.  If memory
serves, I received some kind of reply from Apple, back in February stating
that they had received my request and would look into it.  To be honest, I
did not take them very seriously as their reply felt very much like a boiler
plate, (smile).

Well, last night, as I was cleaning up my Wish List, on my 4th generation
Apple TV, I decided to take one more look at the information for "Edge of
Tomorrow", before removing it from my list, permanently. 

I was stunned and delighted to see that, as part of the description, the
letters A D had been added.  I was not certain that A D meant audio
description available, as many newer films are more explicit in this area
but, taking a chance, I decided to rent the movie.  

You guessed it, the audio description track was included in the download.
What a wonderful thing.

>From now on, if I discover that a movie, for which I am certain contains an
audio described track, as published in a commercial theater, is not included
in an iTunes movie offering, I will request that the track be added to the
download.  You may want to do the same.

By the way, I enjoyed watching the movie, with the audio description track,
even more at home than I did in the theater as I (1) could see the video
much more clearly and (2) could control the playback.  Be that as it may,
the social aspect of enjoying a movie with friends, in a theater, does add
enormous value to the movie-watching experience that cannot be dismissed.  

Mark

Original Post, Dated February 24, 2016:

Subject:  A Question About Audio Descriptive Movies in iTunes

Hello All,

I am posting this question to both the V iPhone and Mac Visionaries mailing
list.

My primary question:
Is the audio description track included when renting a movie from iTunes? or
must one purchase the movie in order to receive the audio description track.

My secondary question:
If a movie debuted with an audio description track in the theater, does it
follow that the movie will include that track in the iTunes store version of
the movie?

Here's my situation:
Last summer I saw the movie entitled "Edge of Tomorrow", in the theater,
complete with audio description.  To me, it was a fabulous movie.  Just so
you know, the film is now marketed and sold under the title, "Live die
Repeat".

A couple of days ago, a sighted friend of mine rented Live die Repeat, from
the iTunes Store.  She watched it on her iPad.  Even though many titles, in
the iTunes Store, are not listed as having audio description, I was hoping
that, like so many others, given that the film was released with audio
description in the theater, the track would be included on the download.  

According to her, she could not hear any audio description despite having
the settings on her iPad configured correctly.

I should probably add that, to my dismay, I discovered that the DVD copy of
this title, I purchased when it was first made available, did not include
the audio description track, either.

I would so much like to enjoy this movie again but I fear, that, unless I
can locate a version that includes the audio description track, I will not
be able to relive the experience of "Edge of Tomorrow".

All replies most welcomed.

Mark

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread E.T.

Megan,
   I am not yet running Sierra. Unless the scheme changed in the latest 
Fusion, you can remap the NVDA key in VMware Fusion settings. I remapped 
to the accent key which is above the capslock key.

Hello all,
I did a stupid thing and upgraded to Sierra without properly checking to
see whether *everything* worked. I guess it never occurred to me that
karabiner and Seil would be the things that would break, but there ya
go. Ergo, functionally my virtual machines are broken, since now I can't
use the Mac's keyboard to interact with JAWS or NVDA, since my caps
remapping is gone. I also used Karabiner to remap my mechanical keyboard
at work in some very specific ways, since it's a very strange little
keyboard and the layout was just very fiddly, so that's not much fun
either. But the upshot is, has anyone found another solution that works
for remapping? Ideally, something that still allows me to remap caps
lock, since I still actually use some of the other commonly remapped
keys like the tilde key, etc. I know I can't be the only person who
relies heavily on VMWare and Windows along with Sierra, and someone else
must be looking for a solution as well.
thanks for any advice!

Re: Selecting photos from albums in iMovie?

2016-09-24 Thread Larry Thacker Jr.
You may have better luck using the photos app itself to create the slideshow 
and then you can export that to a video.  Now if you want something you can 
stick into a DVD player and have it run, that’s where I also got stuck and 
eventually gave up.

Re: universal copy/paste not working

2016-09-24 Thread Jürgen Fleger
Hallo Anouk,
I experienced both: sometimes universal clipboard works and sometimes not. I 
additional experience sluggishness related to iCloud. Ones I deleted a pdf file 
in iCloud Drive and it took several hours until it was gonne on all my other 
devices, even though all devices were connected to the internet. That’s one 
reason why I personally haven’t left Dropbox yet. It’s much more reliable and 
faster then iCloud, unfortunately. I’d love to shift completely to iCloud 
Drive. And so my guess is universal clipboard sometimes needs more time as well 
to sync.
All the best
Jürgen

Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Megan Bening
Hello all, 
I did a stupid thing and upgraded to Sierra without properly checking to 
see whether *everything* worked. I guess it never occurred to me that 
karabiner and Seil would be the things that would break, but there ya go. 
Ergo, functionally my virtual machines are broken, since now I can't use 
the Mac's keyboard to interact with JAWS or NVDA, since my caps remapping 
is gone. I also used Karabiner to remap my mechanical keyboard at work in 
some very specific ways, since it's a very strange little keyboard and the 
layout was just very fiddly, so that's not much fun either. But the upshot 
is, has anyone found another solution that works for remapping? Ideally, 
something that still allows me to remap caps lock, since I still actually 
use some of the other commonly remapped keys like the tilde key, etc. I 
know I can't be the only person who relies heavily on VMWare and Windows 
along with Sierra, and someone else must be looking for a solution as well. 
thanks for any advice! 
Megan

Selecting photos from albums in iMovie?

2016-09-24 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
I'm trying to help my (sighted) mother use iMovie under Sierra on a 2012 
Macbook Pro. We're trying to import photos from an album in Photos, but not 
having luck. I go to the sidebar and choose the photos library option, and 
that's where things go wrong.

At first, it seems fine. I find the popup menu, choose "my albums", and get 
some filters and a search box. However, the group of albums after that has no 
meaningful labels for VO, and my mother says it shows only a single album which 
is not the one she wants. Then, stranger still, the whole thing vanishes if 
either of us try to do anything with it, and both "my albums" and "albums" 
disappear from the popup menu. I have to select "years" before they come back, 
which makes no sense at all.

We're both new to iMovie, and are both very confused. Why does "my albums" only 
show up sometimes? Why does the list of albums, when it does consent to appear, 
show only a few albums and then vanish when you try to show more? I hope this 
made some sense. Thanks in advance.

3. I’ll admit I haven’t exhausted all possibilities here, but can’t change the 
contents of the favourites bar via VO’s drag and drop or via the “mouse button 
locking” method that used to work.
4. Unless you hide the favourites bar, each folder in the favourites bar now 
appears in the tab order. I’ll admit this is more of a “change in behaviour” 
than a bug.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!

Re: Sierra beta 10.12.1 and IOS 10.1 public beta 1 released

2016-09-24 Thread Blee Blat
I'm seeing this as well sometimes. It seems to be random, would also like to 
retract some stuff I said earlier about Mac OS updates. The kernel fixes are 
more obvious if you play with it a bit. I have had a bit of time to heavily 
load the system and run regular workload through it. Seems to be a large 
improvement even though I don't use a lot of the new   features. The universal 
clipboard thing is really neat though and the music fixes. And it takes more 
tabs to be open before Safari becomes unusable.
 Will report this bug if I can produce it consistently as well as one other 
bug. It seems if you have muted voiceover sounds, then you mute speech, when 
you unmute the speech it also unmutes the voiceover sound effects. This doesn't 
happen on iOS, only Mac OS.

Just installed the iOS 10.1 beta and works fine here.  Have not decided if I 
will rejoin the beta program for Mac OS as I just did a clean upgrade from gold 
master of searria to the final build and things are fine so far except, mail 
keeps putting vo at the bottom of a conversation every time I delete a message 
in a conversation.  Anyone else seeing this.  I reported this to apple 
accessibility already.  Thanks.

Re: A strange observation about the speed of system on both Mac mini and macbook pro

2016-09-24 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

Yes they can.  It can be done when you order your Mac, or after the fact.  Some 
of the newer Macs must be ordered with your desired specs as they are extremely 
difficult, or almost even impossible to change/upgrade.  Those with the 
spinning drive though are often more easily upgraded to the SSD.

possible resolve of adding Audio Facetime to your favourites in the phone App.

2016-09-24 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hello Everyone.

As an experiment, I added a contact to my favourites in my phone app, as like a 
few people on this list, I could not add Audio Facetime.

Well, I did this again a few minutes, ago, by deleting a contact from my 
favourite.  However, I added the same contact and rather than double tapping 
the person’s name, I flicked up as voiceover said more info.  So I doubled tap 
and in there, I found Audio Facetime.  So those of you who do Audio Face Time a 
lot, can now do Audio Face Time calls from the phone app rather than opening 
the Face Time app on your phone.

Kind regards.

Kawal.

I am not a CapitalOne 360 bank customer.  However, I can tell you that, 
recently, they have made some major changes to their mobile online interface 
that is affecting all of their iOS mobile apps.  

Based on my experience, I am confident that they are dedicated to making all of 
their products accessible to those of us who are sight challenged.  

Having said this, I strongly recommend that you add your voice to the 
proverbial accessibility chorus by:

1.
Informing them of your recent experience via the mobile app's feedback tool.

2.
Posting a review in the App Store, explaining your issue.

3.
Email your comments to soc...@capitalone.com.

4.
Contact them via social media.  I think the best Twitter account to use is 
@AskCapitalOne.

Generally speaking, when I discover a VoiceOver bug/problem, I send feedback 
via as many channels as possible.

Mark

The 360 bank is what I use. It has always worked before.

If you miss the intro, no worries. Just press the play/pause button, bottom 
right hand side of the remote, three times.

 Hello
 
 First, the 3rd generation, as far as Apple Support is concerned, is long
 gone. So your chances of support may be slim. Not impossible, but slim.
 Now onto your questions.
 
 This remote, does not charge, unlike the 4th generation. Therefore, you
 change the batteries when it is low. To set it up with VoiceOver, make
 sure your TV is tuned into the correct HDMI input channel. You should
 then hear it talking you in how to turn on VoiceOver to set up Apple TV
 with VoiceOver.

No it’s just for iOS and no tvOS either. It’s only a small update to fix a few 
issues discovered in the Golden Master/public release.
