How to Reduce Delay Between Successive Keypresses on Mac

[Dave Carlson]

What I’m referring to is the following example:

I’m in the folder view in Mail.
I press the “J” key to jump to the first folder starting with that letter.
If I want to then type another letter “J” or even if I want to type some other 
letter, I always have to wait about 3 seconds before it will respond.
Unless of course I press a down/up arrow first and then type the new character.

That seems very silly to me. Of course, I’m an old Windows user and I liked 
being able to tap a letter key repeatedly and skipping from one item to the 
next with that letter to speed up searching.

So for all the clever terminal command folks out there, is there a way to 
significantly shorten the required “dead time” before the Mac will wake up and 
respond to another keypress?

And I’m thinking this is a system-wide restriction, because it exhibits the 
same behavior in Finder, Dock, and others aside from Mail.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Some Questions Regarding Pages and Voiceover

[Jonathan Cohn]

If you are checking the word count often in your document, you can set a hot 
spot for the word count.
For example press VO-Shift-5 to set hot spot five.
You can then check the contents of that hotspot with VO-command-5 without 
losing your place. 
THe VO-command (number) commands will read the hot spot in question and not 
move any cursors. 
I suppose if you doing this quite often it might be worth while setting a 
commander to read the hot spot. Option-W or numpad minus are probably easier 
for most people to type than the standard VO key.
 
Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

RE: USB Headset and Mac M1 Issue Resolved

Well, it is annoying, but I’ve seen this in Windows as well.

At least I didn’t lose speech this time when the headset was connected.

If the developers of the Web site aren't following the standards, it

Re: Help with Combo boxes, radio buttons and pop-up menus in safari.

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

Another option beyond return, or VO-space, is just the space button.  
Basically, it’s not really Apple that needs to fix that part of things, it is 
the developer.  If they develop their site using accessible API’s, then all 
screen readers will be able to work well within their environment.

I have also experienced situations where the element did not behave properly in 
Safari, but was able to manipulate it within Chrome or Edge.  That, again, is a 
developer issue.

Later…

RE: Help with Combo boxes, radio buttons and pop-up menus in safari.

[Rebecca Skipper]

This may be a problem only the site’s developer can fix.

The Mac and iPhone support third party browsers.

Hi team,

That’s what I thought. Apple should do something with that. I visited the 
Classter.com  web page. there I had to choose something on the pop-up menus and 
combo boxes, and neither VO space nor the return button worked.

Thank you very much for your help. Have a good one!

Hi,

 

It kind of depends on how the developer coded the web-site.  You have multiple 
ways that you can address these elements.

 

Radio Buttons:  If the radio buttons are grouped, as in a scale thing, like 
“Select 1 through 5 depending on your degree of satisfaction”, then I can tab 
to the item, and the first item will be selected.  Using right or left arrows 
should move through the other possible buttons in that group.  Note, coming 
from before will land you on, and select the first item, whereas tabbing from 
after will land you on and first select the last item.  You can also use VO 
navigation to move through the radio button choices, then either VO-space or 
just space to select the radio button.

 

Combo Boxes or Pop-up Menus:  these are often handled in a similar manner.  
Again, it depends on the method that the developer coded these elements, but 
basically, try VO-space, then arrow down.  If that doesn’t work, press return 
on the menu, then arrow.  Sometimes, I’ve had to press return to open the combo 
box or menu items, then use VO arrows within.  You have to use everything in 
your toolbox as there doesn’t seem to be a one option fits all when it comes to 
web elements.

Re: Recording radio programs on an iPhone

[joseph hodge]

I’m not sure of any iPhone app that can work with this maybe screen recorder. 
The only way I would know how to do this is to hook it up to like a Mac and use 
audio hijack. iOS is pretty restrictive when it comes to recording app content.

Re: A Question About How to Get VoiceOver to Read Notifications on Apple Watch 7

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi Mark,

I have an Apple Watch 7, although this was similar on my Series 3 if I recall 
correctly.  I’m currently using the Australian Voice 2.  That is, I have it 
checked to use my Siri voice in the VoiceOver settings under Accessibility.   
If I remember right, it was no different when I was using Samantha or 
Australian Voice 1.  In the Notification settings, I have the Notification 
indicator turned on as well as the Notification Summary.

I did get a text message this morning, and was able to read it on my watch 
right away, as I checked it within the first bit where it automatically show 
the notification.

Recording radio programs on an iPhone

[Michael Busboom]

Hi.

I recently heard a program on local radio that fascinated me. I would like to 
record it before it disappears. The local radio stations let you listen to the 
program for up to a week before it is removed from their list of offerings.

I am looking for an app that will enable me to record such offerings and listen 
to them whenever I would like.  While I own two apps that let me record live 
radio streams, I don’t have anything that allows me to record audio output that 
comes directly from a URL.  Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

With warm regards from Austria,

Mike

Re: Requesting Over the Ear Headset for Mac and IOS

[Kliph]

I’d just use any of the AirPods models.  Pair with all apple devices with no 
effort at all.

RE: Requesting Over the Ear Headset for Mac and IOS

[Rebecca Skipper]

Yes, but no sound unless I disconnected the headset and adapter.

I suspect that I need to tell the mac to use the headset for output and the mic 
for input but without Voiceover this is impossible.

When you say it didn’t work, what happened? Plug and Play should work with most 
headphones. The issue is that in there wisdom, Apple made the Mac and iPhone 
hav  different connections. What you will have to do if you want the same 
headset is get a pair for your mac and then get an lightning to USB adapter for 
your iPhone.

Requesting Over the Ear Headset for Mac and IOS

[Rebecca Skipper]

Hi,

Can you recommend a over the ear headset with a mic similar to a UAV headset
that will work both with the M1 Mac, iPhone, and iPad?

I would like to have a wired option for zoom and Facetime.

I tried using a USB headset with an adapter on my Mac but it will not work
with Voiceover.

Plug and play isn't working.

Thanks.

RE: new iPhone se

[Rebecca Skipper]

Call Spectrum and give them the IMEI and they should be able to send you a Sim 
card in the mail.
be sure to get them to deactivate your old phone so you are not stuck paying 
for two lines.

Help with Combo boxes, radio buttons and pop-up menus in safari.

[Steve Z.]

Hi list,
Yesterday I was trying to fill out a application  in Safari that included Radio 
buttons, combo boxes and pop-up menus. Some  things have lately changed and I 
couldn’t activate them.
Could you tell me how this can be done? Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
