Re: Right clicking links on a web page?
hello; it sounds like your cursor tracking isn't on or isn't working. when this happens to me, which it does on some pages, I use the command control option f-5 to make sure I'm on it. then i press control and the track pad, but i believe you can just do control option m for the menu and get the same list. hope i haven't made things harder. take care, max On Jan 29, 2012, at 1:19 PM, Christina wrote: I encounter this problem with almost every link. The option return is not a solution as I do not want to download the link. I often just want to open the link in a new window. My mouse cursor is set to follow the VO cursor. Then I do a right click with the actual mouse by holding control then clicking the mouse. In my case it's actually a track pad. So, I am just careful to not touch the track pad or moving the mouse cursor. I have an old track pad with an actual button for mouse clicking.

Re: Right clicking links on a web page?
what would be a good compromise as it works well with the save as features is if when clicking the link safari would prompt you as to where you want to save it. Then after the first file it changes the default to the folder you used in your last save as. probably wouldn't be too hard to do for them. take care, max On Jan 29, 2012, at 4:28 PM, Matthew Campbell wrote: Hi. Still, it'd be nice if Safari and VO would play nice together so I wouldn't have to jump through hoops to get my files where they need to go. I really don't like comparing Apples and Oranges here but at least this can be done in FireFox in my windows VM and that's what I've had to resort to several times just because Safari and VO don't play nicely at all on certain web sites especially those with very large web pages.

Re: Accessible HTML editing?
Hello; I have a templett page i made for myself in text edit. It has all the elements i want in most of my pages. I just add the alt tags and whatever new text or html code i want and then press shift command s to save as. at this point i can change the folder or file name i want it to go to or i can just let it update the file i was working on. It prompts me that my document is html and asks me to save it in html text or cancel. i press html and then it tells me a document already exists do you want to save the changes. If i like them, then i press yes and i'm done. don't know why you need the rtf at all. of course i'm still running leopard and your problems might be being caused by your operating system if you are running snow leopard or lion. good luck, max On Jan 18, 2012, at 8:32 AM, Bill Holton wrote: Trying to make it simplier than just doing innotepad on my PC.

He then came home to find that his parents had been murdered by an evil blind man. From that day on, he swore that he would get revenge and make a social networking site that was deliberately as inaccessible for blind people as possible. Goodness knows why they didn't put this in the film; it was a bit of an oversight, but that's just typical hollywood. What is so frustrating about this is that the mobile site was so accessible. They're also doing image statuses now as well, so blind people can't see people's statuses because they're not always text.

Smiles, Cara :) --- Adobe discontinues mobile Flash Player Sylvie Barak 11/9/2011 3:51 PM EST MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--Adobe Systems Inc. announced Wednesday (Nov. 9) it will restructure its operations, a move which will result in layoffs for some 750 employees and the discontinuation of Flash Player for mobile devices. The upcoming release of Flash Player 11.1 for Android and BlackBerry PlayBook will be the last update to the software. In a shocking 180-degree twist, Adobe said in a blog post it would no longer be working to adapt Flash Player for mobile to new browsers, OS versions or different device configurations, and that it would instead focus on building applications for mobile and investment in HTML5 - long considered a rival standard. “HTML5 is now universally supported on major mobile devices, in some cases exclusively,” wrote Danny Winokur, vice president and GM of Adobe’s interactive development team, adding that this now made HTML5 superior in terms of creating and deploying content in the browser across mobile platforms. “We are excited about this, and will continue our work with key players in the HTML community, including Google, Apple, Microsoft and RIM, to drive HTML5 innovation they can use to advance their mobile browsers,” he added. Winokur said Adobe would now urge developers to continue packaging native apps with Adobe AIR instead. “The announcement to no longer develop Flash Players for mobile devices is an admission by Adobe not so much about the superiority of HTML5, but more about HTML5 momentum and the incredible amount of resources it takes Adobe to maintain the Flash player for so many different chips sets and mobile OSes that change generations two to three times per year,” said analyst Jack Gold of Gold Associates. Indeed, in the mobile space where OS versions and chips change so quickly, Gold says Flash for mobile has been a “resource nightmare” for Adobe. “We could have seen this coming,” he added. The war of words over whether Flash was right for mobile has been raging for years now, with Steve Jobs and the Apple Inc. camp firmly

This will just go to show you just how much we have come forward with accessibility, thanks to Steve and all his folks. This friend was having difficulty with his old phone, and he was thinking about getting an iPhone. I think he eventually will when his current contract runs out in a few months. He thought it was time because he thought his current phone was dead. He asked the salesman at Sprint to show him the new Siri iPhone. The man, with all the confidence of someone who thought he knew what he was doing blurted out: I don't think it will work for a blind person. It's got a flat screen. After making this incredibly uninformed statement, he handed the iPhone to my friend at his request. Luckily, he had some experience with iPhones from his sighted iPhone using friends; he's never seen mine. He said to the guy: just let me show you something here. Luckily they were so uninformed that they hadn't messed with the defaults on the Siri iPhone. So, my friend pressed the home key three times, and when it came up he said into it: show me the weather in Miami, Florida. It did, and VoiceOver started reading it. The salesman, pretty much in shock, said: I will never say a thing like that again. That shows me.

Re: Apple is Awsome wasFor sale: iPhone 4

I have just had my iPhone 4 replaced at no charge. I do not have Apple care either. I had dropped my phone on concrete and the screen was completely shattered. The Apple rep said that it would normally be $179 to replace the phone but as I had not had any physical damage to the phone previously they would cover it under the normal 12 meh warrantee. I have heard on some of the tech podcasts that apple have a semi unofficial :we're Awsome policy. Supposedly one of the criteria is that you don't lie to them. You just bring in the phone or whatever and tell them exactly what happened cause they'll know anyway. I guess this is more relevant with things like water damage then it is for dropping. There would be other criteria as well of course but I have heard lots of stories from friends etc about how Apple have gone above and beyond what they would have to. This has been with things like mine which were obviously user damage. With something like an ear piece not working properly, I would be extremely surprised if it cost you anything at all to get fixed. You would probably find that they would just take your old phone and go e you a new one. You could then look at selling the new iPhone 4 on eBay and using the money on a new iPhone 4S.

Re: iPhone 4s and Siri
my brother has tried to ease my worries about the data usage by reminding me that the iphone is very good at switching from your cellular network to wifi when one is available. I'm still concerned. take care, max On Oct 5, 2011, at 2:26 PM, Chris Blouch wrote: Interesting. So it's like the Dragon iOS approach where they encode an audio snippet, send it off and the real work is done on some cloud processor? So what was all the claims about using the new A5 chip and being 4S only because of compute requirements? Maybe it's just compute intensive to quickly encode the audio snippet. That said, spoken word audio is pretty small. 64 or 128kbs is only 8 or 16 K per second. A typical command is probably only 5 seconds or 80K at the higher data rate. So just 1MB would handle about 12 transactions. So a 200MB a month plan would handle some 2500 Siri commands. Twice that or more if they are able to compress 64kpbs or lower and/or if the commands are less than 5 seconds. All that said, there is a brewing storm over mobile data caps because all the new cloud, sync, mobile innovation is going to hit a wall soon. While I got grandfathered in on an unlimited plan for my iPhone, my wife has the paltry 200MB plan on hers and we've already been dinged once for $15 when she went over. Caps on home cable/dsl plans are much more liberal but today's expansive pipe is tomorrow's soda straw. It's a cycle that's happened a dozen times or so and I do recall the days when 300 baud modems were 'fast' and who would need anything faster? Then it was 1200, then 2400, then 9600, then 14.4, then 28.8 then 56kpb then 128, 256, 512, 1Mbps and today it's multiple Mbps. Difference is that back then when you bought a 256kbps DSL connection it was expected that you could use it all you want. Today you can get 25Mbps or higher but there is a cap. What good will new faster 4G networks be when you can consume your entire plan allotment in a day? This will start to get ugly soon.

quick time question
hello list; I've made some progress today with quick time, but I could use just a little help. I figured out how to select audio and video. I can copy segments from the beginning or end of a file. I can select the part in the middle i want, but I can't figure out how to save the piece i want into a new file. I hope someone can help. thanks, max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

mac user needs help with his website
Hello group; I know this is somewhat off topic, but I'm hoping the mac users who operate their own websites will help me out where other lists have failed me. I'm wanting to create a rotating banner for my website to show one advertisement each time a page loads or is refreshed. I'm hoping for free and very simple. I understand that it will probably involve modifying a java or php script. I'm ok with putting my data in someone else's form, but that's the limit of my skills. No money in the budget for a webmaster and still have trust issues even if it wasn't a matter of money. but I will give one of the spaces in the rotation to whomever can help me solve this problem. My site is www.midwaymarketplace.com if you want to check out the site or its rankings. I really hope someone here can help me. I'm hoping that if I put some sample ads up or a this space for sale here i might be able to generate enough income to start doing some other things like conferences, trade shows, or advertising myself. Thanks in advance for any help. and i hope the moderator will excuse me. If you have to put me on monitored or something, that's fine; but i didn't know who else to ask. take care, Max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: The inaccessibility of Flash with VO
Hello; ON my site i sell people's amusement equipment. Given differences in bandwidth and internet speed outside the u s, many will send me you tube videos. I have taken to stripping the video and converting it to mp4 so that it can be viewed on all the i devices. My brother gives me grief because he thinks i should just embed the youtube video. Problem is when i do that using my mac i lose the audio. and trust me no ride is better without the music and screaming or laughing customers in the background. a shame we have to have the problems with flash, but even if it goes away; it will go away very slowly. take care, Max On Mar 5, 2011, at 3:23 PM, Mike Arrigo wrote: Thi depends on what sites you need to use.

However, there is also a less technically intensive and likewise completely accessible method of pulling YouTube videos. Although I have only used this a few times, I believe it to be completely free and in order. If you go to http://www.keepvid.com, you will find that you can enter the URL of the YouTube video in the edit box and press the download button. A page will then appear that includes the name of the video and various formats in which to download it. MP4 is among the formats available. These videos can be successfully tagged and imported into iTunes (or vice versa). This bypasses the potentially arduous process of obtaining the video and then converting it.

solve my safari instability problem
Hi list; for the last few days my computer has been acting very weird opening webpage links that i didn't click having the cursor bounce around while entering text. I thought it was the most recent software updates, but there really wasn't anything in there to cause the problems i was having. when speaking to my brother this morning he diagnosed my problem. it was a bad keyboard. We verified this by hooking up an external keyboard to it. he says it might be cured by a good cleaning, so I was wondering how you would do that. he told me he'd use a vacume with the small brush attachment. he says if that doesn't fix it, then he'll replace the keyboard for me. well, its so nice to have a cooperative macbook again. take care, max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

You may have to assign pet names to the ones you don't want to get the order the way you like it. good luck, max On Dec 21, 2010, at 4:54 PM, Marlaina Lieberg wrote: Great, thanks Colin but I can't reorder them, right?

Re: default to plain text e-mails questions
Hello; I don't know where the setting is for sure but I imagine it is under the compose tab in mail settings where you can put the default mail to plain text. then if yo send one that is rich text or has attachments it will just prompt you to either stay in plain text or convert to rich text. that's how i handle it. hope that helps, max On Dec 13, 2010, at 11:44 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: Hello. hit cmd shift t to switch between rich and plain text.

Re: Some Apple Mail Questions using voiceover

My husband took the mouse and put it on the to field, which was macvisionar...@gmail.com and then he clicked the triangle to the right which brought up a menu o choices which included copy address and add to addressbook. How do I do that using vo? 3. I'm reading a message and decide to keep it, but I don't want to move it; I want to leave it in my inbox for now. How do I close it and be returned to my inbox list of messages? Right now I do cmd-w then cmd-1 to reopen the inbox; I have to believe there is a better way! 4. I've read the message and from within it, I press backspace to delete it. This takes me back to my list of messages in the inbox, but I hear all this verbiage about inbox table one row selected before I hear from whom the next message was sent or its subject. Can I make that stop? 5. I am desperate for help in fining attachments; vo tells me there is one, but I can't seem to find it. I've done all sorts of itterations of turning long headers on, interacting with toolbar, interacting with message text, and the list goes on! It just escapes me! 6. I know what the attachment is and decide to save it. I go to file and save attachment and when the filename dialogue box comes up, it doesn't read the name of the file. Is there a way to hear that? Ok, those are my questions and I know they are many and basic. However, I would be so grateful for any insight people can give me.

I wouldn't think twice about blogging without it.

Re: VirusBarrier X6

Re: Recommendations for FTP blient for the mac?
i use cute ftp, and i'm very happy with it. Its simple. I never feel like I don't know what I'm doing with it.

new real player and converter
Hello group; Has anyone else tried the new versin of real player for the mac? I recently had some problems with my old version, so i removed it and downloaded the newest one. with that you also get a program called real converter. I was disapointed because it wouldn't let me convert from og to mp3, but something it does claim to do that you all might be interested in is converting videos from youtube and other online sites like youtube to regular video or even just audio. don't know if it works because I don't have any youtube files to play with, but thought I'd mention it since I've heard some discussion about this problem on the list. I'm sure it does a lot more. let me know. thanks, max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Navigating to the top or bottom of a table.
hello; how is your email displayed? I'm asking because I can't get the go to top or go to end working either. I like to keep my active emails in my inbox, so sometimes i have over a hundred messages in there. so, what i do sometimes is when in the list press a letter like a for the top or w for the bottom. this isn't perfect, but often it will get me close enough to where i want to be to save a lot of time. another thing i like to do before checking mail is to note the name of the sender for the last message in the list so i can enter those characters to get back there. Of course, sometimes i have more than one email from the same contact and have to do it several times. Hope this helps until you can work out the preferred way to do it. thanks and take care, max Aug 16, 2010, at 11:13 AM, Geoff Waaler wrote: Thanks to Anne, Kevin and Carolyn who sent me a private note, but I remain stuck in the middle of my in-box with no quick way out.

Nike+ software is on your iPhone or iPod Nano, you purchase some Nike+ ready trainers and a Nike+ sensor into the left trainer under the inner sole. As an alternative (and much cheaper one) you could download iTreadmill for your iPhone. Personally I like the Nike+ system better as I do not need to keep the phone in my pocket or even touch it once I have started my workout. Depending on what workout you choose, the coach gives you regular feedback on your progress. Out of interest, which treadmill did you get? I have got the York T302 which enables me to use the built in speakers for the iPhone and the buttons are easy to feel and remember. Each press of the speed + or - buttons increases or decreases by 0.2 km, so its easy to work out how many presses I will need to hit a good walking pace of 6 km per an hour. Prior to the Nike+ I used the built in timer on the iPhone so I knew how long I had been walking for, well that was if I was not using the phone to play music or podcasts.

There are many different types of shoes that go from reasonable to very expensive. When I work out I use a treadmill. I start the niki plus and than start the treadmill.

Re: iPhone signal loss
Hello; this is one of those things that is universal to computers and technology. ever since the heartache and pain i caused myself by upgrading to internet explorer 5.0 on my old windows xp machine I've had the additude of I'm not going to upgrade to new versions until they have been out a while. even without the complaints of members on the mac visionaireis list i held off on safari 5 and am still hesitant about moving up to snow lepard. my life is complicated enough without my old friends deciding they don't want to play any more. thanks and good luck, max On Jul 16, 2010, at 5:43 AM, Chris Moore wrote: H think I will wait until 4.1 On 16 Jul 2010, at 10:59, Bryan Smart wrote: Well, 4.01 came out, and I tried to install it. Half way through, iTunes gave me error 3004 (what-ever that is), and stopped. Now, the iPhone won't talk, won't reboot (black screen), and, when I attach it to the Mac, and iTunes starts, iTunes says that it is unable to connect to the iPhone software update server. I'm obviously online, since I'm sending this message from the same computer where I was trying to update. Looked online, and some other people are having this problem, too, with no solution. Been trying to re-update for about 3 hours now, but no luck. Doesn't look like there is any way to back out the update, or reset the phone and restore from a backup, since I get this error every time I attach the iPhone. Looks like my phone has been successfully bricked. Maybe Apple tech support will have a suggestion tomorrow, but, since it appears that the phone isn't actually turning on anymore, I'm not sure what they'll have me do. Take out the battery and put it back in? That will be a trick. I'm out of town on business. It was a stupid stupid thing to do to let anything of mine be updated while I'm out of town. I suspect I'll be wasting expensive time tomorrow tracking down an Apple store, instead of working. This sort of stuff is what we supposedly pay more to avoid with Apple products. Extremely disappointed.

The issue of signal los will still be present, but since everyone will appear to be getting less signal all the time, it won't be as noticeable.

Re: ftp clients
hello; a friend on another list sent me a copy of cute ftp. its a very simple program. even i can use it. I've had it for a couple years now and no upgrades. I entered my ftp info and the folder on my harddrive. then i tell it to sink the folders. you can do from to your website or website to your computer or simultanious. I usually have mine set to from site folder with a check to delete files that don't agree with what i have here. I hope this helps. i know managing my website on the mac almost made me get fusion so i could do it in windows. but now i'm glad i didn't. good luck, max On Jul 6, 2010, at 5:26 AM, Allison Manzino wrote: Hi Donna, I have used Cyberduck, but I could never get it to do what I wanted to do.
