Menu bar issue resolved but it brings up a larger issue
Hello, I posted yesterday about an issue I was having with Google Drive's Extra Menu item not working when clicked. This turned out to be an issue with to many items on the Menu bar. Meaning, after closing a number of items it worked. This brings up a couple of things. While VoiceOver does see items they can't be clicked if to many items exist on the menu bar. This is also true of clicking them on the Magic Track Pad. I tried BarTender which is an app that allows you to control icons that appear but it has a number of accessibility issues with it and so far the vendor/author hasn't been to responsive to email messages. Has anyone else found any other alternatives that work well and that are VO friendly? Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

RE: Menu bar issue resolved but it brings up a larger issue
Yeah, this is the part that is confusing to me. I am unsure if the icons are not visible but VO is seeing them or what is going on here. All know is that multiple icons can not be clicked if you have to many but VO sees them.

Was the menu issue within the OS itself or did it have to do strictly with voiceover? Why would the OS allow for more menu items than voiceover could read? That makes no sense. Has this always been an issue? I hope it does not mean the decline of accessibility within the Mac software.

RE: recording VoiceOver and a microphone with Audio Hijack 3
Brilliant, thank you! -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Darcy Burnard Sent: Friday, January 23, 2015 2:16 AM To: Mac Visionaries Subject: recording VoiceOver and a microphone with Audio Hijack 3 Hi. Earlier tonight, I listened to Jonathan Mosen's excellent demo of the new Audio Hijack 3. Jonathan mentioned that it was possible to record just VoiceOver and the microphone without recording system audio. Well I managed to accomplish this, so I thought I'd write up how I did it, in case other people may want to do this. My goal was to have three output files. I wanted an isolated VoiceOver track, an isolated microphone track, and a mix of the two. I probably would only ever need the mix, but if the levels were really uneven, I could fix it later with the isolated tracks. Also, I wanted to ensure that while I was recording, I didn't hear the mic echoing back. In order to record VoiceOver, you need two application source blocks. One for VoiceOver, and one for com.apple.speech. If you just do VoiceOver, all you get are the VO sound effects. In order to select those apps, when you're in the pop over for the source block, and you're focussed on the choose application popup button, route your mouse there, and do an option click. This shows you all the running applications that are normally hidden. Note that when you set up those two source blocks, you need to make sure the fill gaps with silence checkbox is checked in the advanced section of the pop over. If you don't do this, the audio from VO and the audio from your mic will quickly go out of sync. I think the best way to explain the session will be to first describe how it works, followed by the block layout with co-ordinates. First we have our two VO source blocks. These are arranged vertically. They are both connected to our output device block. This ensures that we can hear VoiceOver once the session is running. This output block, goes to a record block. You might change the output file name created by this block to something like VoiceOver. A few rows down from those blocks, we have our microphone source block. This connects to a second record block. You might have the files created by this block called something like Microphone. Between these two sections of blocks, we have a third record block. Our other two record blocks connect here. Call the files created by this block something like Mixed. So here is the actual block layout for the session. x1 y1: application source block: com.apple.speech x2 y1: device output block: probably your headphones x3 y1: record block, VoiceOver x1 y2: application source block: VoiceOver x4 y2: record block, Mixed x1 y4: device source block: microphone x2 y4: record block, Microphone If you lay out the blocks like that, all the connections should happen properly. Well hopefully that made at least some sort of sense. If it didn't, it's probably my fault, as I'm writing this at 4 in the morning. Which now that I think about it, probably wasn't one of my brightest ideas. Darcy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

insert key remapping not working on right side of the keyboard under Fusion ...
Hello Everyone, OK, this is a very strange one and I am hoping someone can lend some advice here. 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?

Hi Jeff, Through some trial and error with JFW in Fusion, I found a couple interesting things when working on a Mac keyboard with no number pad. 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. Try it out and good luck. Hope this helps.

In fact, Mail kind of gets rid of folders all together for gmail. Instead, just like gmail on the web, there is only one folder per se, and that is All Mail. Messages get given labels like inbox or whatever other personal labels you have, which act much like folders only different.

There are definite snafus with Gmail and Mail. basically, the all mail folder gets placed in the archive folder, and it's necessary to have it enabled in Gmail settings on the website. Depending on how much you use Gmail, this may or may not be a show-stopper. If you switch to Pop mail, you can no longer use your labels from the Gmail site, and you'd have to set up local rules for filtering messages in apple Mail. Also, you can't move Gmail folders in apple mail. Since I use Gmail for about 20 mailing lists I'm on, and I sync my mail with my iPod, I'm going to try not to ditch Gmail for now. Whatever you do, do *not* go into the all mail folder on your devices if you sync with them, because a huge bog-down will possibly ensue.

Fusion and Sound sometimes stutters or sounds robotic ...
Hello Everyone, I am using a MacBook Pro (a 13 inch duel core I7 Retna) with VMWare Fusion. I notice sometimes that speech either with Window-Eyes or JAWS using Elloquence that it sounds robotic or slightly stutters. Simply pressing the control key stops speech and returns it to normal working order. This is with Fusion 5.03. In earlier versions of VMWare you could tweek the sound buffers. Do these same configuration changes apply to version 5? Have any of you experienced this issue? It isn't a show stopper by any means, just something that if I could would love to get resolved.

If this is the case, any return signal is not being generated by the monitor but the circuit is made at the socket and passes it back to the mac.

a friend having issues with Mail in Mountain Lion
Please see this message. Does anyone have any pointers that I might be able to pass along? Hello all, My name is Amber and I'm having some problems with Mac Mail in Mountain lion. I am using Gmail along with Mac mail. I have set up Gmail with its accompanying folders. I find that I am having trouble with voiceover in the conversations that I have created in Mac mail. I like the option to thread my replies, but I am finding that voiceover repeats the conversation disclosure triangle quite a bit when I arrow through messages. In addition, I am also having trouble deleting emails within threads. Sometimes when I use the backspace key, the messages within the threads are deleted. However, sometimes they are not, or the messages seem to be deleted, but the same message is read to me a few times. It is almost as if voiceover cannot catch up with my deletion of certain messages within the thread although I am not deleting them very quickly. In order for them to be permanently deleted, I have to hit command and W and close the entire thread. Another issue I am having is that sometimes command delete will delete the message and sometimes it will not. There are a few things that I have done to try to fix this problem. I have removed my Gmail account and put it back onto Mac mail. I have also gone into the view menu and changed it to classic mail view.. In the mail preferences under the view tab, list previews are turned off. Show headers is also said to none. Include all messages is also unchecked. Mark own messages as read this unchecked. Should this be checked? I am running Mountain lion OS 10 on a MacBook. Not a pro. It is about two years old. I have done all updates to Mountain lion just today. I have also noted that voiceover is a bit sluggish on my machine. Sometimes it takes a while to catch up to what I'm doing. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciated. You can email me at amber.wall...@gmail.com. Thank you. Sincerely, Amber -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

VMWare has just released VMWare Fusion 4 today. For those that don't know or who are new to the mac, Fusion lets you run windows on you're Mac without having to reboot in to a separate OS. Fusion is $50 until the end of the year but will go up to $80 after that point. Now for some great news. Fusion works amazingly well with Vo as far as I can see. There's a couple unlabelled buttons hear and there but these can be figured out quite easily. The easiest thing to get stuck on is the Virtual Machine Library but I'll give steps here on how to best navigate it. When Fusion is opened for the first time, you will be presented with the Library screen where you will find a scroll area. Interact with this and you will see some unlabelled buttons. The number of buttons you will see depends on how many OS's you have running. I had two, one for windows and one for Ubuntu. In order to see which button is which, just Press VO down arrow and the VM in focus will be announced. So to recap, the power button is on top and the name is underneath kind of like you'd find things in a store where the product is on the shelf and the price is on a little tag on the front of the shelf. Hope this helps and feel free to email the list if I can possibly help further. Matthew Campbell -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Here's a little hint for all us VoiceOver users. Once you've set up CCC and have entered your password to start what ever process you are using, for example, a complete clone, here's a way to make sure you are able to track what's going on. After the process has started, just toggle VO off then back on. Then you will be in the actual results window. I've tried using the keyboard to switch to the actual activity window, but for some reason, I cant get it to work. So again, just toggle VO off and then back on to be where the action is. Then just VO right or left to examine the different parts of the activity as it's taking place. In the past, I've used Super Duper and Time MAchine. So I decided to take a really close look at CCC. In my humble opinion, CCC tops them all. Again, just how I see it. HTH! Dan On Jul 7, 2011, at 9:37 AM, Christopher-Mark Gilland wrote: Wow, Dan! Thanks for such a great heads up about CCC.

I set up CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) and I really love it. It's extremely easy to use and it's 100% accessible for VO users. Not only is it easy to make a complete clone, or a incremental backup, it's also really easy to boot from and use it on the external drive. The log details are well written andeasy to understand. Restoring the original drive is also really easy to do. CCC is produced on a shareware kind of concept and it uses a donation request field. This is available within CCC as well as on the site. http://www.bombich.com/ So, why am I posting this? In light of Lion's upcoming launch, I just wanted to really be prepared. No matter what you use as a backup utility, CCC or Super Duper or any other backup package, I strongly suggest that you cover all bases and be completely ready for the new exciting move to Lion!

Move files and folders using Command-X / Command-V. 2. Merge folders of the same name. There are some other ways to add these functions, or you can switch to Windows where they've existed all along, or maybe they'll even be built into Lion, but I think US $4.99 makes this an easier choice if you want to have these functions. Also, when you open the installer you will find a folder named Accessibility. Within that folder is a PDF note from the Developer giving an overview of the accessibility of the application and asking for feedback if you encounter any inaccessible elements. That folder also contains the MoveAddict Preferences application which you can paste into your Applications folder and launch anytime you need to make changes. There are very few options and you'll probably not need to use the preferences app very often if at all. Here's a link to the MacUpdate promo for MoveAddict.
