It is called say overdue reminders.scpt and works on my machine, but please test it thoroughly as it is, um, a bit fragile. You must have overdue reminders (that is, reminders with a due date set where that due date is in the past). Once I know this works, I can expand to speaking other reminders, like those due today. Other changes include fixes for the markdown in the readme file, a fix for that ram bug that affected systems with 16gb or more of ram, renaming the battery script to match the rest of the scripts (re-assign it if you assigned it already), and a couple more things you can find in the changelog. To install the scripts, just erase your old Talking Dashboard folder and replace it with this one (any commander assignments you made should not break as long as you put this folder in the exact location as the old one).

The dots are actually lined up as they appear in the Braille cell. Moreover, they fit on the iPhone screen much better that way and it allows you to hold the device at the same time as typing. If you had six fingers all in a line, how would you hold the device? You would have to put the device down somewhere and this is inconvenient when you're mobile, and being mobile is the main point of an iPhone. I can see how having the dots all in a row Perkins style would make sense on an iPad, but not an iPhone. I timed myself when I first got BrailleTouch before I had much practice and I was still more than twice as fast as I am using Flexy or the regular touch typing touch screen keyboard.

Re: Mbraille new Braille keyboard iPhone app
Hi. I haven't used mbrial enough to be sure but I think it's slightly more responsive. Yes, I do also like the contracted braille. Will probably keep braille touch at least for a bit but I am thinking i may like mbraille. I need to get all the gestures down pat though. I also like the fact that you can edit what you are typing and hear what you are reading at any time. Again I need to practise with how to get all this straight but there are some of the features I think will be useful. Also the fact that you can email someone and put recipient and subject in etc. regards Maria and crew from australia email: bubbygirl1...@gmail.com check out www.95-the-mix.com where we play lots of great music On 27/06/2013, at 1:08 AM, Chris H christopher...@gmail.com wrote: In what way do you not like BrailleTouch?

Sure enough, I had about 4 copies of the file which brings me to my question for you.

Re: Questions About Numbers
HI. could this be an accessible way to create a table? e.g. paste it in to numbers then paste it back in to your document? Maria Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. - Mahatma Gandhi On 22/06/2013, at 12:05 AM, Eugenia Firth gigifi...@me.com wrote: I guess it depends how big your files are and how complicated. I use Numbers all the time quite fine in running my business. It works better for me since I upgraded my memory, but I can see where some people would have trouble. There are some things that can be done if you want to enter text quickly into Numbers so that you don't have the hesitation whenever you edit a cell. If you go into TextEdit, you can type text with carriage returns between each entry and then paste it in. If you have more than one column, you can put tabs between the columns, putting in a carriage return when you go to the next row. I do this all the time when I type entries into my invoices. This saves time on data entry, and you can edit the ext easier before you put it into Numbers.

I have spoken to Apple countless times about Numbers and Accessibility. If you have a large spread sheet, there is no way to do a find or search to jump to a cell, as they broke that function in mountain lion. Apple is aware of this issue, and they told me numbers and pages have not been updated since before Voiceover came out, so it doesn't fully work with Voiceover. Kind of frustrating when you consider productivity. I used to use numbers all the time, and several times a day all of the sudden I couldn't enter any data into the spread sheet. I would have to quit numbers and restart. I have switched over to a database program as numbers got so frustrating to use.

How can I select a whole row or column? A trainer at the Apple Store says you have to click on the row number or column letter. I cannot find a keyboard shortcut to do this nor can I find a way of navigating to these points with the touch pad or keyboard. I am sure there must be a solution so please can someone tell me what it is? 2. Even though my spreadsheets have been very small so far I keep getting busy messages and often have to force quit the program and on one occasion even this solution did not work. I seem to remember someone saying that increasing RAM makes a big difference. I have 4GB so would it be worth doubling this, or maybe adding even more RAM than that?

So the question is should MSP (or the Mud Sound Protocol) be ON or OFF by default? It is easily accessed through the preferences menu either way, but knowing how most users have reacted to iMud so far I can say some people may find it confusing that the mud is playing sounds (if they haven’t read the docs or checked the preferences).

That said, I had no official training so had to rely on this list and twitter to learn everything about the mac. Since I still needed to use my computer on a daily basis, and since the mac was my only machine, I felt that being able to use native windows would be the best solution for me, until I was either comfortable with the mac or decided it was not for me and stuck with only windows. Needless to say, I got used to the mac and now hardly ever boot windows, and am looking into replacing my bootcamp setup with a vm solution. If you are close to an Apple Store, you could go in there and get help, especially in the first thirty days while your machine is still under warranty. So, since you have access to help, I think a virtual machine solution is better: no partitioning of the hard drive, not needing to shut down to do something in the other OS, and you can even run a vm of win7 and one of win8, or a linux distro, if you wanted to. None of this is final, too - if you bootcamp now, you can also use a vm solution and erase your bootcamp later, or vice versa. As to virtual machine applications, I have no information on Parallels, but I know Fusion is accessible. Virtualbox, another program, is not very accessible, but it can be used. However, I had sound problems when I tried to use it, so i'd stay away from that one. Really, Fusion seems the best option, unless (as another poster said) Parallels has been updated to be accessible. Please don't hesitate to ask questions about the mac as you learn it. We are all here to help, and some of us are even happy to talk to you on the phone or skype if necessary.

Bootcamp requires some sighted help to set up, unless you can find a guide to help you, which I honestly still wouldn't recommend. As far as Parallels, that's completely inaccessible, the last time i heard anything, but they may have changed. A lot of people on this list use VmWare Fusion.

I have been using windows for 13 years and IM a little afraid to convert to the Mac. I use an iPhone, and that has opened up a new world for me. The accessibility that I have gotten with voice over in my humble opinion, is excellent. Even though I love my iPhone, the truth of the matter is I am used to windows. Having said all this I really want to make the transition to Mac I believe that I can learn a lot, and I also further believe that my experience will be great. Here is where I need everybody's feedback. The person who assessed me for my new computer suggested I use Boot Camp which comes with the Mac computer. a second person later on suggested that I use fusion because it is easier to toggle between windows and the mac side. When I went to the Apple Store the gentleman who helped me, a very very nice man and knowledgeable invoice over told me I should not go with boot camp or fusion, but I should go with something called parallel.

It's so easy to scan things and convert them. I can create MP3 files and add them to iTunes. It automatically rotates pages, gives you feedback if the page looks blank and generally produces fantastic results. I think the problems most people have with it are twofold: 1.The price tag. It's $299 for a lifetime subscription, which is not cheap. 2.The scanned files are not editable. This means it's only really useful for books or letters and things which you want to read only.

Re: App Accessibility: Please Read!
HI. when I review an app, I try to mention it's status regarding accessibility. I think if we mention it in reviews then possibly this might help to give a new buyer an idea. I have been hesitant to buy mac apps because usually I have no idea whether or not they are accessible. If I can find a free version or trial version that is a good thing. but I digress. Blessings!

Since Apple has a centre in a lot of countries. The laws for that country apply. In the example of a $150.00 app isn't accessible or meets the users needs. In Australia you have grounds to get a refund. In fact, I believe there is an link on the Apple web site to permit you to get this refund. I believe the UK has similar laws to Australia. I do not know if the USA has these consumer laws, in protecting your rights. In relation to rating apps or even having a method of tagging if it is accessible. If it is left up to the end-user. Then software houses can game the ranking. This has occurred on any platform where you can rank the application. So it isn't a Apple specific issue I am referring to here. Example: I create an app that claims to be accessible. Then I spend a day ranking it high with the accessibility ranking flag. Result, you cannot trust the ranking system completely. Since Apple provides the libraries to be used by developers. Then I am sure it would be possible to have a script that detects the usage of the libraries for Voice-Over. Then a flag could be raised indicating there is possible accessibility in this app. The only true way to test an app is by a person.

It was enough to where it almost caused me to boycott and never ever use Apple products again. I bought an app which the dev kept swearing left and right would work with Voiceover, though didn't offer a trial. I tried making special arrangements with him for a serial number which he could activate for me for 8 to 12 hours, just long enough for me to try it, and see if it worked, with the promise that I'd buy it if it worked. Even still, he refused. This app was around $150. So, not cheap, to say the very least. I finally bit the bullet and bought the app on the app store. Not only was it not accessible in the least, thus proving the dev's assumption incorrect, but when I wrote the dev, he never replied back to me, and never cared that I had bought the product but was having an issue. suffice it to say, Finally, I took it up with Apple. They gave me the whole shenanigan of: well, it's not our problem that you bought an inaccessible app, you should have done your research more thoroughly, blah blah, blah. I explained to them I did everything! within my power to test the accessibility before buying, but the dev was totally uncooperative. They still maintained that it's not their problem, and to get over it young. When I explained it was $150, all they seemed to be capable of saying was, ouch! that's a lot, followed by their canded appologies. I finally requested a refund. As this point, they told me flat out, even if it was music in the ITunes music store that had been corrupted, the bottom line was, accessibility not withstanding, quote unquote: we don't refund blind people. That was literally their exact words, I swear, to, god! We? do not? refund, blind people! I almost puked when hearing this! I couldn't believe my ears! Needless to say, I contacted a lawyer her works for the NFB, and we'll just say he didn't even have to take the case pro-bono. He called them on my behalf, and well... we'll just say by the end of the day, I had not only a refund, but I got twice! the amount I initially paid refunded back to me. Needless to say, people don't wanna F with me, on the level of bad customer service ediquet, cause believe me: I will! get things done, case closed. Anyway, my point is, I totally! agree with you that a polacy should be made, not necessarily to refund people who get inaccessible apps, don't get me wrong, but at the very! least, one that says in both the IOS app store, as well as the mac app store, there needs to be a requirement to submit some form of a trial version of your product. Maybe I'm over-reacting, but come on! $150 later and now you're gonna tell me you don't refund quote: bl'l'lind people? I'm sorry, but, that's a crocka, you know what... Chris. -

I wonder, do you know, how can I de-authorize the bootcamp install, and so make the serial# available for a new install in the VMWare side. We're getting closer. I sense a Fusion purchase in my near future if all goes well. I have to assume if everyone is using fusion/windows with such great success, there's no reason I can't as well. I admit I don't use the windows installation solely because of the whole reboot requirement. - Original Message - From: Paul Erkens paul.erk...@gmail.com To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, April 21, 2013 10:10 AM Subject: Re: Help with VMWare Fusion Hi Yolanda and Phil, Let's not make this more complicated than it is. 1. After having started fusion, you can start windows by opening the normal menubar with vo plus m, m for menu as a mnemonic. Then, vo arrow right until you find the item called virtual machines. Hit vo space to open this menu, and then vo arrow down. You will either find a dimmed text item that says: windows is running, or windows is off. If you find that windows is off, vo down arrow some more, and you'll ind the option that reads: start windows. Easy, isn't it? 2. If you are inside windows and you are still using the default settings in fusion, then you may run into several strange issues. One of them is, that the key next to your spacebar, is functioning as the windows start key, and the mac option key, which you would love to have as your windows key, instead functions as an alt key in windows. That can be confusing. If you are used to the layout of a windows keyboard, then the way fusion has it is not what you want, because by default, on a fusion virtual windows, your alt is windows key, and the windows key does alt. To change, or swap this, you need to go into fusion's preferences. When fusion is up, and windows is off, hit command comma to get to tfusion preferences. Once in there, there are many settings, devided into different screens. You can switch among these different screens, using the toolbar at the top of the screen. Interact with it, and hit vo space on keyboard and mouse shortcuts. The screen for that will open. Stop interacting and look at the screen. Now, I think you will find out how to handle the interface here, but let me tell you this in advance. You have a listbox here, that tells fusion what to do when a certain mac key is pressed. For example, here you have the command key, defined to perform the windows logo key function, which is what you want to get rid of. Further more, fusion also assigns command c to do what control c does in windows, which is copy, but you don't want alt c to be the same as control c in windows, do you? So, clear out all definitions in this listbox and start over with what you want yourself. Next to the listbox with key definitions, you will find 2 unlabled buttons, button, button. The first is add, the second is delete. Put the vo cursor on the second one, and hit vo space until the listbox is empty. Now, all key definitions are gone and you must create some of your own. Hit the add button, being the first unlabeled button next to the list box. The add key definitions dialog appears, and here, you have a from, and a to, field. In the from field, to defind command to be alt in windows, in the from section for this key, check the checkbox that says: command. For the rest, leave the entire from section for what it is. You only need to check this command key box. Now in the to field, find the checkbox that says alt, check it, and hit okay. There you have your command key, the one next to spacebar, defined as alt in windows. All you did was hit add, check command key in the from section, and make that key do alt, in the to section. Now, go on with the option key, to do the windows logo key function. In other words, when you are inside windows later on, and you then hit option, the second key to the left of the spacebar, you want that key to become the windows key, that opens the start menu and search field. To do this, hit add again, check option in the from section, and in the to section for this definition, find the unlabeled checkbox. That very

easy music converter
Hi. I converted one file that I had downloaded from itunes to mp3. the app is totally accessible. there is a toolbar where you go to add files, the dialog is a standard one you get on your mac. Once the file or files you want to convert have been added you click start. I don't know if it will do it every time but the app then asked me to choose an output folder. I now have a folder that says mp3, followed by another folder with the date as it's name and then the converted song. There is also a settings button where you can change bit rate and stuff. Oh and a pop up button to choose the format to be converted to. I hope this description helps. Blessings! Maria Joe and loving guide Karly.

I know it is a weird subject line, but when you are done reading i am sure you are in full agreement with me. But first things first. For some time for what ever reason i installed boom on my mac mini generation II. I dont know but i never got too use it, it is a mini 1 gig of ram, and have as well as all my other macs been raped and brought too hyperventilation on a daily basis with ocring over a 1000 pages books, flying with the flight-simulator, etc. None of that have actually ever brought it too its knees as the story i am about too tell. For a few evenings back i am sitting on irc, chatting, having a grand and cheerful time, when my mac suddenly stops, not just stops but shots totally down like 3...2...1...off. Too a new mac user this, indeed might look like the order of things, right? but no, actually not , we are still and hopefully always will have some sort of unix under the hood so shutting a mac down if it have been running full tilt over a few hours, do actually take time. Much too my amazement i look down, say a few unwritable words, better suited for a us core mariners bar, and hit the poweron botten, there contact! clear prop! so now i sit high and mighty and wait for my trusty mac to do what it does next-best of all things , right? booting up, problem is, i wait, and wait, and wait, and ... yes you got it oh girl am i waitin., i wait! and well after a smoke i am, still, waitin'! okay, i do believe this computer is about 5 or 6 years old,and it have never, ever, done this before. as flighty as i am, and yes i can be pretty flighty i sit back and think. It turns out too make a very long and frustrated story short that boom is indeed the sinner! Lets go alittle back, i said i had installed boom, not actually used it, installed as in copy from image, lay in apps folder, Period.. And i tell you when it expires, all hell breaks loose, not just loose like in a lil labrador waggin' its tail loose, but more like 105 tons of old russian tank down over a hill unstoppable, kinda hell loose. For the trained terminal user it is not a huge problem, you find all references too boom and coldly and with great glee rm them, and that is that. But for the new and untrained mac user, do simply not ever use boom. It is not worth it. And what, have all this too do with a british landrover, ever tried too get one out of a lake, too the trained its childs play, else, dont do this at home... /sandi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Three of them, and you will probably have to google at least one, because the links are broken. Once you get all of those installed, you do the following. You change directories with cd followed by the file path. You want to be in the game folder. For me, it's applications/games/soundrts/ and then you press enter. Then you start it by typing python soundrts.pyc . This is the file you want to open, so this will launch the game. Here's what I typed in Terminal once I downloaded it and moved it to my applications folder: cd /applications/games/soundrts python soundrts.pyc The first line changes my directory. The second line executes the game, which is inside that directory.

Generally the VGA to NTSC adaptor can run very high resolutions so you should be fine if you still need that. Would be nice to find out my little contraption is no longer necessary. In reality, we just need the VGA connection to have certain pins connected to make it think a monitor is there. Companies used to sell VGA terminators which did this but I couldn't find anybody who still sold them, so the VGA to NTSC adaptor was the cheapest equivalent I could find.

Re: Nisus writer pro VS anything else
HI. I find doing a control a in preview and then pasting the text in to something like text edit or whatever sometimes helps Maria Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. - Mahatma Gandhi On 19/04/2013, at 1:42 AM, Jürgen Fleger apple-engl...@fleger.net wrote: Hi Nicholas, at first: I'm using Preview in OS X 10.8.3 Mountain Lion and it's a catastrophy. I'm really experienced how to use programs on the Mac but I can't understand why some people in this list say it's good to use. I also discussed the issue with an Apple Senior Adviser and he confirmed all my issues in a phone call. We went through the issues step by step. I guess the satisfied users use Preview in Snow Leopard or Lion. Here's what I criticize on Preview in Mountain Lion: When I interact with the text area and use VO + arrow up or down, right or left, the VO cursor jumps around in the text. It's especially obvious in the head area of a letter where you have the addresses. When I read a normal text line by line it works partially but at some point VO beginns to read ends of the former line once more and mixes lines completely. Not to speak about pdf files with a certain structure like columns or tables. It doesn't matter what view I use. I'm not sure wether this might be an issue of the german version of Preview but a lot of my friends also complain about that. They are as annoyed as I am. That's what I don't like about Preview.

I'm actually now really happy with Preview, thanks to a few people on this list. It does everything I could want in a PDF reader. Even working with properly marked tables of contents.

I guess it doesn't read well by paragraph, or at least I haven't discovered this yet, but the main thing for me is reading by line, word and character.

Re: Some Mac questions
Hi. there were a couple of commands i didn't know about mainly some of the highlighting commands. thanks for this comprehensive post. Maria Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. - Mahatma Gandhi On 16/04/2013, at 2:29 AM, Tim Kilburn kilbur...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I've copied and pasted below a portion of a web-page I used to have regarding TextEdit. Editing text within TextEdit is similar to using other Word Processors on the Mac as the MacOS tries to make actions similar across similar applications. This has not been updated in a couple of years but I believe that all of this is still relevant. With respect to your questions about copying and pasting within the Bookmarks Bar, you'll need to use the Show All Bookmarks option under the Bookmarks menu if you wish to Copy and Paste things within the Bookmarks Bar. There are Contextual menu commands available within the Bookmarks Bar when you press VO-shift-m on any of the Bookmark Bar buttons but things are far more accessible when in the Show Bookmarks window. Getting Started To use TextEdit, simply open it from your Applications folder then interact with the Edit field. To open Word documents, you can select the given document, open a Contextual menu (VO-shift-m) then choose Open with, then choose TextEdit. You can tell the Mac to always open these sorts of files in TextEdit by selecting a .doc file, pressing cmd-i (Get Info), then navigating to the Open With area. Once there, you can tell the OS to always open these file types with a specific application, in this case, TextEdit. VO Commands in TextEdit When navigating through text in TextEdit, you can use the following commands. These commands can also be used when navigating through text in some other applications. A reminder that VO means CTRL-Option. VO-a: Read all the text. If you are interacting with the text, you will read from the VoiceOver cursor location to the end of the text. VO-s: Read the sentence in the VoiceOver cursor. VO-Page Down: Read the next sentence. VO-Page Up: Read the previous sentence. VO-p: Read the paragraph within the VoiceOver cursor. VO-Shift-Page Down: Read the next paragraph. VO-Shift-Page Up: Read the previous paragraph. VO-l: Read the line within the VoiceOver cursor. VO-Down Arrow: Read the next line. VO-Up Arrow: Read the previous line. VO-w: Read the word in the VoiceOver cursor, press a second time to spell the word and a third time to spell it phonetically. VO-Right Arrow: Read the next word. VO-Left Arrow: Read the previous word. VO-c: Read the character at the VoiceOver cursor. Press again for its phonetic. VO-Shift-Right Arrow: Read the next character. VO-Shift-Left Arrow: Read the previous character. VO-Home: Move to the first visible word and read it. On a laptop computer, press VO-FN-Shift-Left Arrow. VO-End: Move to the last visible word and read it. On a laptop computer, press VO-FN-Shift-Right Arrow. VO-Shift-Home: Move to the beginning of the text, scrolling if needed. On a laptop computer, press VO-FN-Shift-Left Arrow. VO-Shift-End: Move to the end of the text, scrolling if needed. On a laptop computer, press VO-FN-Shift-Right Arrow. VO-t: Get text attributes. Editing Text Editing text within TextEdit is similar to editing in other word processors although it's good to note a few differences in the way VO travels compared to other screen reading software. When navigating with the down arrow, VO will land at the end of the line of text that it is reading. When navigating with the up arrow, VO will land at the beginning of the text that is read. When navigating with the right arrow, VO will land at the end of the word or letter announced. When navigating with the left arrow, VO will land at the beginning or to the left of the word or letter announced. Setting Tabs To set tabs in TextEdit, navigate to the ruler and Interact with it: VO-space: Set a tab stop at the given location on the ruler. VO-Delete: Remove the tab stop at the given location on the ruler. VO-shift-Down Arrow: Interact with a set tab stop. Then use the left or right arrows to move the stop accordingly. Line Spacing To set the Paragraph and Line spacing in TextEdit, navigate to the ruler and Interact with it, then navigate to the Paragraph and Line Spacing pop-up menu and choose the spacing you desire. Selecting Text To select text in TextEdit: Shift-Right Arrow: Highlight the next character. Shift-Left Arrow: Highlight the previous character. Shift-Down Arrow: Highlight from the cursor position to the same position on the next line. Shift-Up Arrow: Highlight from the cursor position to the same position on the previous line. Option-Shift-Right Arrow: Highlight the next word. Option-Shift-Left Arrow: Highlight the previous word. Cmd-Shift-Right Arrow: Highlight from the cursor

You can, for instance, do a lot of typing in reminders or contacts on the mac, and then the changes will appear on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch. I'll not talk about the other advantages of the Mac, since they are basically the same for sighted and blind users so any Gogle search can give you more than I could think of. I will mention the cost of screen readers, though: vo is free, whereas most Windows screen readers cost money. However, the free NVDA screen reader nullifies this point somewhat. I still don't like browsing the web on the mac as much as on windows, but I have grown used to it. Still, I like the windows approach to the internet much more (well, technically, I like windows scree readers' approaches to it). Aside from that, and having less hotkeys in dialogs (balanced by the ability to assign custom hotkeys to items in the dropdown menus), I can't think of disadvantages except, of course, the price. I use both Bootcamp and a virtual machine solution, so both avenues are open to you assuming you have a license key for your copy of windows. I'm not suggesting you have an illegal copy, I'm saying you will need the 25-character code to re-authorize your copy of windows if you want it to work normally. You can find isos of Windows online and use them, but they will expire and you could run into some problems if that happens. The bootcamp vs vm debate is also something I will not get into here, as it has little to do specifically with the blind and so information you find online will apply to you as much as anyone else. If you have additional questions, let me know.

What I mean by this is I would love to get some feedback from you guys on the list about an unbiased bit of feedback on your experiences with the Mac. I also would like to know what you guys have experienced as being pros to the switch from a windows machine to that of a Mac system as well as cons if there is any. Have any of you used boot camp or another way of running windows successfully on a Mac? The reason I want to get this information is because my wife just recently had her Toshiba laptop give out on her after just three to four years and is rather disappointed with her experiences in windows laptops so she is tossing around the idea of a Mac. However, before making the decision to just jump into the decision she would like to get as much information as possible and weigh the advantages and disadvantages first so that she makes the best decision for her in the long run without being stuck shelling out money on a system she won't like. I ask about running Windows in boot camp or through another avenue because she enjoys mudding and uses VIP mud which is made only for windows so will likely need to use this in the short term at the very least until she can find a client that works as well with voiceover on the Mac. I thank all responses you guys can give us and thank you all in welcoming me to the list.

Re: Serious question about Mac vs. Windows
HI. I've owned my mac for over a year now. I do run a vm from time to time but am finding less and less need to go in to windows. It did take me a while to learn, but the thing I love about the mac is that it just seems to work. No laggie pauses when you hit a key and wait for 5 seconds for a screen reader to tell you what's happening etc. I feel like I have the best of both worlds, I can use windows if I need to, and I can have the stability of the mac.

beat box and voice over?
HI. I successfully paired the beat box speaker with the mac and was using the speaker out of the room quite successfully until voice over went quiet. Because I had voice over set to the beat box everytime I logged back in to my account, voice over would try to default to the beat box speaker and I had no speech. Any suggestions on how to get voice over back if I lose connection with the speaker? Toggling vo on and off didn't seem to help. I ended up having to log in to the guest account and remove the device then log back in to my account. My system sounds were there but vo wasn't. any advice would be very much appreciated. God Bless!

Re: Extremely irritating problem when playing DVD's.
Hi. this wouldn't really bother me as I use a pair of usb headphones and have voice over going through them and other stuff going through the speakers. I just take the headphones off if I'm listening to something like a dvd. Could you not just turn vo off and then turn it back on if you need to navigate? Just some thoughts. take care. Maria Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. - Mahatma Gandhi On 24/03/2013, at 1:34 AM, Chris Gilland clgillan...@gmail.com wrote: OK, guilty as charged, I confess, I've been using a mac now for over a year and a half, and only now have tried playing a DVD with the native DVD player app. I absolutely love it! Talk about accessible! Holy Cow! the only issue is that I have it set where once my DVD starts playing, I hit command+control+F to enter full screen mode. I do this so that I can see the movie over the entire screen and not just a small little portion. The issue is however, when I enter full screen mode, Voiceover keeps saying DVD Player has new window. It keeps doing that every few seconds. OK, yeah, I could set up a key map, being this is a mac mini, so I can't do track pad commander, which would let me toggle muting and unmuting of speech, and sure, I could even set up an activity for DVD Player to mute speech entirely when the app is opened, but that defeats the whole purpose, as sometimes I may want access to the player interface so I can navigate the menu bar etc. So really, though those options definitely would work, don't get me wrong, they seem a bit extreme. I just wonder why in the first place, it thinks there is a new window. No, it isn't doing it every time the screen visually moves from one frame/scene to another. It seems to be doing it more on a fix timeframe, like, say... oh?... I dono,... maybe like, every say... 5 seconds or so. It's really! really! irritating! I suppose I could use VLC, but is that really necessary? Has anyone up here had any luck with the default DVD Player.app native app that comes with OSX? If so, how'd you get rid of that message? I remember this being an issue very vaguely in Snowleopard, but I'd think they would have fixed it by now, in Mountain Lion. If I dont' wanna use this app, nor VLC, are there any other DVD players I can get that're freeware, that will work? I'll wait to hear what you all have to suggest, but I'm wonderring if an e-mail up to Apple Accessibility may be in order here.

Interact with whatever slider you want to change and you can do it that way. Hope that helps.

HI. just search for stations, e.g. I put in Australia and got quite a few australian listings. There is also an option to add a Url.

I love stanza
HI guys. I found another use for stanza. I have a pdf with recipes in it. the recipes read really strange with preview. The ingredients were in one column and amounts in another etc. I think you kind of get the picture. I was going to launch windows and see if I could get any sense out of adobe reader, but before that, I thought I'd convert the document to epub using stanza and see how it then read in itext express. Ok, this isn't perfect everything is on one line instead of having blank lines between each ingredient, but at least I can now read it, do a bit of editing and perhaps put the recipes in paprika. When I first got stanza I got it just in case, now I'm not only converting things to epub so I can read them on the iPhone/ipad but it's helping with troublesome pdf files. Blessings!

The graphical interface is inaccessible. To install the command line tools requires opening the advanced preferences of the program. I believe that I'll be able to convert ebooks into different formats from the command line. As I do currently on Windows. However, Calibre will not convert books that have DRM. You'll have to use another tool to remove DRM. Depending upon what country you reside will influence your personal feelings about removing something that the producers have employed to stop such activity. I personally, remove DRM from books I've purchased for personal use. Simply, in order to access it. But I respect that some people wish to obey the strict letter of the law of their country. I would rather buy an iBook version of a book than have to remove DRM from another format.

Re: more on converting files to ebooks, Caliber?
HI. is it possible to download a kindle book to the mac without sighted assistance?

I'm not sure whether the mac version of this program is accessible, but the Windows version of Apprentice Alf's removal application, which incorporates Pithon scripts and on which the calibre plug-ins are based, is accessible and free. See http://apprenticealf.wordpress.com/ Once DRM is removed, you can convert the books in your favourite application, I prefer to use a Batch file to do it, which does support multiple files at one time of input. It does them in parallel, so far as I know, so you can use your multicore CPU to its potential. I hope that's of use.
