Subject: Anyone using a Logitech MX keyboard for Mac?

Hi all,

I just bought one of these keyboards to take to Europe in lieu of my Mac.  
Anyone else using one?  One thing I’m wondering about is the Logi Options app.  
From what I can find, it’s for Mac only.  Can anyone confirm or deny?  Second, 
if you’ve installed it on a Mac, how accessible is it?
TIA,
Donna

Re: Zoom H1 essential recorder with voice guidance

2024-03-10 Thread Michael Babcock
If, for some reason, the voice guidance isn't heard on your H1E, please follow 
these troubleshooting steps.

Number one, turn the device on by pulling the slider switch toward you on the 
left side of the device holding it for a second and then releasing. You will 
hear startup sound, even if the volume is turned all the way down.

Number two, slide your finger up the left side of the device until you feel the 
knob to turn up the volume. Push this knob up or away from you. And continue 
until you can no longer push it.

Note, you will hear the start up sound even if the volume is turned all the way 
down. You will not hear the device speak to you.

If pressing the knob all the way up, does not allow the device to speak to you, 
press the button on the right edge of the device. This takes you into the menu.
At this point will use the four buttons directly below the screen to navigate 
the menu:
press the second button in from the left under the display twice. 
Next, Press the right most button once and this will take you into the system 
menu. 
Press the third button from the left, once to highlight accessibility, 
Press the fourth button from the left once to enter this menu
Press the fourth button from the left once again and this will take you into 
the guide sound. 
Press that fourth button from the left again to enable English plus beep.

Please let us know if these directions do not assist.

Re: Using Parallels

2023-12-29 Thread Michael Babcock
Someone shared this on mastodon the other day, and it blew my mind. Hopefully 
it'll help you!

What I suggest is map these to either numb pad or keyboard commanders, and then 
you can toggle the behavior of your caps key on the Mac. I'll copy the read me 
below.


I'll share a link feel free to check out the Apple, scripts on your own, but if 
you set the caps key to an insert key, then using laptop, layout, with jaws on 
windows in parallel, seems to be fairly well for me. The only major pain that I 
have is control, left and right arrows tend to not move me word by word…

https://github.com/TyflosAccessibleSoftware/ChangeKeyForVM

readme.md

# Change keyboard for Virtual machine

AppleScript to change the behaviour of the caps lock key for Virtual machines

## Description

This repository includes some apple scripts to modify the behaviour of the 
physical keyboard.

### KeyboardForVM
 
This AppleScript modifies the behaviour of the **caps lock** key changing it 
for other key.

This function is usefull for blind developers who needs to use a screen reader 
in a Virtual machine.

When a Windows virtual machine is running the screen readers usually use the 
**Insert** key as the *HotKey* for the screen reader but this key is not 
available in a MacOS keyboard.

Using this script the key *Caps lock* can be changed for other key to manage a 
screen reader in the Virtual machine.

 Usage

Run the script to show the behaviour selector for the **Caps lock** key and 
press *Enter*.

You have to use this script when you will start a Virtual machine app.

### KeyboardRemapper

This script allows us to remap a key with other one.

The available keys are: caps lock, left shift, right shift, left command, right 
command, left alt, right alt, left control and right control.

 Usage

Run the script to remap one of the available keys to other one.

If you need to remap more keys you have to run the script again.

### ResetCapsLock
 
This AppleScript resets the behaviour of the **caps lock** key.

This function is usefull for blind developers who needs to use a screen reader 
in MacOS.

 Usage

Run the script to aply the remap to the **Capslock** key.

You have to use this script when you finish to use a Virtual machine app.

### RemapCapsLockToInsert
 
This AppleScript modifies the behaviour of the **caps lock** key changing it to 
the **Insert** key.

This function is usefull for blind developers who needs to use a screen reader 
in a Virtual machine.

When a Windows virtual machine is running the screen readers usually use the 
**Insert** key as the *HotKey* for the screen reader but this key is not 
available in a MacOS keyboard.

 Usage

Run the script to aply the remap to the **Capslock** key.

You have to use this script when you will start a Virtual machine app.

## Information

These scripts use the command **hidutil**.
These changes are not permanent and the changes will be back when you reboot 
your machine or when you close your user session.

### Tips

You can convert these scripts in an application to run it easily.

To do this follow these steps:

* Open this script in the *Script editor*
* In the File menu choose the *Export* option
* In the Field *format* select *Application* and press the button *Save*
* Copy the new Application in your applications folder.

## Localization

The scripts are translated to English and Spanish.

You can translate each script changing the values in the **on setup()** 
function.

Please, contact me to include new translations for these scripts.

Re: Converting HDIC to PNG

2023-12-28 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi!

Firstly, you can convert the current photos with shortcuts or tools on the Mac. 
Let us know how you have your current images and what you’re trying to do with 
them.

If you want you can go to settings, then camera and change the format to most 
compatible and this should give you more of a compatible format.

Hope this helps a little.

Re: Adding Widgets on Mac OS

2023-12-26 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi Joseph and all!

Find "Using widgets from iOS 17 on macOS 14’s desktop”, this was the episode I 
was thinking of:

https://unmute.show/2023/10/01/using-widgets-from-ios-17-on-macos-14s-desktop/

VO+O to open notification center
Locate edit widgets button
Locate the widget
Interact with the preview, find the size you want
Use actions menu on the size you want, and choose Drag to desktop.
You can also press vo+Space on this widget to add to the desktop.
It looks like it’s easy to add both Mac and IOS widgets to the desktop, however 
I also am not seeing how to move those widgets or add new ones to the 
Notification Center.
It does say "Drag a widget to place it on the desktop or Notification Center…” 
but doesn’t make it clear how to drag or add to the Notification Center.
I did try VO+ < and VO + . As well as vo+command+shift+space
To drag and then toggle the notification center and attempt to drop in the 
widgets there, and that didn't work either.

Hey there,So first, if you haven’t yet, try checking under the actions menu, VO plus command plus space and see if there’s an option to add there. I did a recording for adding widgets to the desktop on Mac, and don’t quite remember how to do it, but will be glad to share steps tomorrow.

Re: Fantastical

2023-10-12 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi!

I’ve also had this issue Jürgen.

My friend Damashe suggested that I use the mini calendar, control+option+space 
and then choose from the event list.

Thanks for your email.

Re: Voiceover announces "Annotation Grammatical Error" in MS products

2023-10-10 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi!

What I would try doing is the following:

Access, the VoiceOver Utility, choose verbosity, choose the text tab, then 
locate:
Choose how to announce misspelled words in spoken text.
Try either setting this to sound or disabling it. Then return to the document 
and see if you still get the same feedback.

If you don't, then you can set this as an activity for when you access 
Microsoft Word. If you do still get the feedback, it's probably worth reaching 
out to the Microsoft disability answer desk to see if they have any feedback 
for you.

Re: Mac mini as laptop replacement?

2023-09-01 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi!

I did move from a MacBook AIR to just a Mac mini with a wireless keyboard.

It obviously won’t let you use it on the GO, so if this is important for you 
then you would need to likely stick with a laptop (MacBook Air or pro).

If you do not move around it will work just fine with a wireless keyboard. I 
use the MX Keys personally.

Hope this helps.

Re: Saving Audio

2023-08-04 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi,

It wasn't clear as to where they posted the audio, if they posted it to 
YouTube, use a tool to download the video, such as Downie - The Fastest Video 
Converter

https://www.hitpaw.net/sem/video-converter-youtube-b.html
Alternatively, what I would do is simply use Audio Hijack and capture the audio 
from the tool that actually playing it if it wasn't available on YouTube or 
couldn't be downloaded with the aforementioned tool.

Hope that helps a little..

Re: Since upgrade to Ventura, unable to read tables in Safari

2023-06-24 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi Donna,

I'll second that I have issues with tables in some instances in Safari.

It would be interesting if anyone can share some site that they experience 
issues with to see if other people are, as maybe it's a configuration issue 
that some of us have not made an order to navigate tables. All of the tables I 
have problems with our internal tools that I cannot share access to, however, 
it does pop up occasionally, and this is what pushed me to actually purchase 
parallels. I wanted to actually work, and could not do that in Safari, or edge 
with VoiceOver on the Mac, as the table would not allow you to use your 
VoiceOver plus up and down, left and right keys in order to navigate it at all. 
And, disabling the ability to group tables had no impact.

VOCR will take a photo of the screen and let you as the user navigate the 
screenshot and click on items in it.

It is my go to app if a Mac app isn’t accessible.

Re: Capture audio from YouTube

2023-04-06 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi

Several ways of doing this.

Firstly if you use a tool like Downie you can drop a YouTube url on the app and 
it will download the audio if you configure it. You also can use a tool like 
audio hijack to do this as well.

NOTE: Downie is in SetApp , you can save money and help me out if you use this 
referral link , but you also can get 
Downie independently if needed . 
Especially if you don’t need any other apps in SetApp.

I hope this helps.

Re: tabs in Safari on an iPhone

If you’d like your tabs to automatically be closed on your iPhone, access settings. Then, choose Safari, and under the tabs heading you’ll find a button that will say something similar to.Close Tabs Choose this button to determine how often safari automatically closes tabs.Note, if you triple tap or double tap and hold on the tabs button in the lower right hand corner if your tabs bars at the bottom of the screen, there’s an option to close all tabs. I hope this helps and you have a beautiful day!Sent from my iPhoneOn Apr 3, 2023, at 6:41 AM, Jonathan Cohn  wrote:I believe there is an option in the options to expire tabs after a time period.

Re: New HomePods?

2023-03-30 Thread Michael Babcock
I have not heard the HomePod in person, but do own a couple of HomePod minis.

I also have 2 of the Sonos 1 speakers. With Airplay 2 it is quite nice to get 
the minis and Sonos talking with each other.

Start music in the kitchen and then tell SIRI to Play it in the Living Room.

I'm just using the Sonos assistant on the two Sonos ones that I have in the 
living room, and Siri for now is working though I'm hoping come WWDC in June 
there's some improvements To the entire experience with Siri!

Re: New HomePods?

2023-03-30 Thread Michael Babcock
I didn't hear them personally, but it's my understanding and my observations 
over an Internet connection that the new HomePods have a more brighter sound, 
and do sound a little cleaner. Everyone who I've heard that owns these devices, 
loves them and feel that the investment into them is well worth it. Hope this 
helps a little! Have a beautiful day and safe travels.

Re: How does one compensate for PageUp and PageDown keys or Home and End keys on a MacBook Pro without an external full keyboard?

2023-01-08 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi Donna!

OK, I see now!

I can verify that this is the case for me as well.

E.G.

1. Open a email message (this one I’m in now for example)
2. Press fn+left or fn+right
3. Nothing Happens, focus stays in the current position.
4. Press fn+VO+Left or FN+VO+Right will move you to the start or end of an edit 
field.

Thanks for this.

2023-01-08 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi Donna!

To verify, when you press and hold FN, while pressing left or right in keyboard 
help mode with VO+K your saying your computer doesn’t say home or end unless 
you press the VO keys as well?

That is strange, on this MacBook Air, I can do the following steps:

1. Press VO+K to enter keyboard help mode
2. Press and hold the FN key, bottom left key
3. While still pressing FN, press left or right and I hear Home or End 
respectively.

Have a beautiful day.

Re: Time Tracking

2022-12-02 Thread Michael Babcock
I have used a tool called timery , which uses toggl  as the back end, and just 
gives it a lot cleaner of an interface. Available on iOS, and if running a M1 
or M2 Mac available on it as well.

Hope this helps.

Changing command, shift, a destination

Everyone:

Is it possible to make this keystroke referenced in the subject open the 
applications directory with in my home folder, versus the systems applications 
directory?

Recently I’ve started sharing a computer with my wife, and I have been working 
out of my own home directories applications so that my apps are use don’t 
interfere with her work flow.

However, I still find myself pressing this keystroke, and I’m wondering if I 
can remap it to a different folder?

Thank you

Michael

Re: vpn services

2017-08-26 Thread michael babcock
Jonathan:
Thanks for all of this information.
Right now I’m using OpenVPN to give me a dedicated IP from my Linode box.
However that’s the only reason I’m using it, not to secure anything but to 
allow IPTables to be locked to one IP no matter if I’m on my home network or 
mobile.
That way the SIP phones I’m using can connect to my PBX system,
But anyone not within the VPN can’t connect because IPTables just makes the 
server appear to be offline when someone is trying to find the server and not 
on the allowed list of IP addresses.
I’m sure there is an easier way to do this.
But for my use case this is working just fine now that it’s all set up!
Now if only twilio and I can get along, though now I’m looking at Plivo
(Now that’s off topic :)

Twilio Console question re: phone number selection

2017-08-25 Thread Michael Babcock
Hi all:
Working on a few projects that require me to use Twilio…
OK, so the fact that Twilio integrates with Zapier and the new IP PBX system I 
just built may have a little to do with my  needing to go with them.
And I love there number selection two…

Hears the problem I run into though

When I select a phone number from a search page, e.g.

https://www.twilio.com/console/phone-numbers/search/buy/results?Country=US=number=tt=right%5B%5D=any%5B%5D=any%5B%5D=any%5B%5D=true
 


(You may need an account to see the above page).
I select a number that I want in the table, and to the far right of it is 
a"buy" link.

When I select this link, voiceover doesn't appear to do anything, however I 
noticed that there's a confirmation dialog box voiceover seas towards the 
bottom of the page.

Most of the time, when I inquire dialogs like these, I can interact with them 
and then select the desired auction.

However using Safari or chrome, I can't seem to access the option to allow me 
to buy the phone number.

My next step is to contact  their support team, but I was curious if anyone had 
encountered something like this and if they have any suggestions I might try?

Hoping all are doing well.
best.

PS, or do you know of a Sip based provider that will allow me to both send and 
receive SMS messages?

Re: Accessibility of constant contact

2017-05-27 Thread michael babcock
Donna:
Thanks for your message, and as I wrote Laura  off list, I’ve not used constant 
contact however have had good experiences with Convertkit.
I used AWebber. For 4 years and loved them, until they released campaigns.
When campaigns was in beta, voiceover users could not independently create 
workflows because an accessible way of dragging and dropping didn’t work at the 
time (March 2016).
Has this changed?
I ask because I currently am working on a Convertkit with your eyes closed 
course:
http://yourownpay.thinkific.com/courses/convertkit-with-voiceover
And understand that Convertkit isn’t right for everyone.
I would love to suggest AWeber, and possibly consider creating a second course 
based around AWeber if this feature has ben improved.
If you don’t use campaigns I would love to know if you have noticed any 
accessibility improvements in the past year as it’s ben about that long since 
last I worked with AWeber.
If you would rather mail me off list:
mich...@yourownpay.com
Is my best email address…
best.

Re: wordpress VoiceOver content management solutions

2017-04-21 Thread michael babcock
Hey Chuck:
I just saw this.
A blind user can manage his own wordpress site, and I have a course that is 
being re done as we email, (some how I ended up creating 3 courses at the same 
time ;) funny how that happened)
Send me a message off list, or connect with me via the information in my 
signature; I don’t want to share the link on list if you want to learn more, 
however next week on my podcast people are going to get information about 
switching web hosts from shared to a VPS (Virtual Private Server) and why one 
may want to do this.
This is in follow-up to my podcast I recorded 
The Your Own Pay Podcast: Self Hosted, Or wordpress.com -
Nov 23, 2015
(Wow how quality has improved ;)
)

http://yourownpay.libsyn.com/self-hosted-or-wordpresscom-your-own-pay-podcast 

Anyways my email is below and some additional resources to help you get started 
 on your own
mich...@yourownpay.com 
It depends on how much time you want to put into your website, and how much you 
want to outsource, just like with any task.
I’ve also heard good things about the book Jeff wrote called Word press for bad 
eyes:

http://wpforbadeyes.com/ 
The website "Make WordPress Accessible – Equal Access For All” may be 
 worth a read:
> https://make.wordpress.org/accessibility/On Apr 21, 2017, at 10:49 AM, CHUCK 
> REICH
And the other site that comes to mind is:
"A Blind Developer's Perspective on WordPress & Accessibility …”
with Amanda Rush on August 06th, 2015 

https://officehours.fm/podcast/71-2/ 
"WordPress Accessibility: Create a website, blog or app | Paths to …”
http://www.perkinselearning.org/technology/posts/wordpress-accessibility-create-website-blog-or-app
 

Hmmm, looks like a wordpress accessibility PDF article is in play ;)

Re: Accessible web conferencing: zoom.us

2017-04-20 Thread Michael Babcock, Host of the Your Own Pay Podcast
Cara:
I’ve forwarded this message on to zoom.
supp...@zoom.us 
This is in hopes that they reply and we can find a positive resolution to the 
issues users are facing with it.
Everyone’s use case scenario is different, for example I schedule my meetings 
and webinars on my account page in Safari. 
(Sign into the account you want to schedule a meeting in and go to:
https://zoom.us/meeting/schedule 
)
The way to get around the date issue on this page is to press your voiceover 
keys plus Space Key on the date, use table navigation to jump to the table, 
select the date within the table, , interact with the sell, press vo+Space, and 
then type in the time in the edit box, 
NOTE: after you select the date, (available dates are links, unavailable dates 
are just numbers), voiceover automatically stops interacting with the table. 
Focus for me is then brought back to the top of the page, so I typed find for 
the number of the day I selected, which jumps focus back to the date. I press 
tab and you can then select the time by typing it into the edit box.
E.G. 10:24
When you press tab again your asked to select"a.m., or p.m.", if you press VO 
Left once, you'll hear either option selected, and this is a link. Selecting 
this link will place voiceover in a edit box, press voiceover right arrow to 
select which option you would like the meeting to be scheduled for.
The timezone selection is the same way FYI.
I don't know if you can view your meetings from the zoom application on either 
Mac OS or iOS, I live out of Google calendar so my links I need to attend our 
either in the event or there in my email notification that comes 10 minutes 
before the time I need to be there.
However, I have seen the focus issues with the chat window, most especially in 
a presentation I gave yesterday showing other users how to use zoom.
Additionally I've also seen at focus issues in the members list, for example 
voiceover doesn't seem to keep focused on the list of members and if you're 
trying to quickly switch between members list and chat Focus tends to become 
lost. I don't know how to explain it…

I've also explained how individuals viewing a webinar or attending a meeting 
cannot interact with the pole feature at least on the Mac, and hosts on the Mac 
cannot either interact with the pole or read the results live in a previous 
communication with zoom, so am hopeful that they look into this.

I do not know how accessible the reports are, I'll be testing those over the 
next couple of weeks as I'm hosting some webinars for a few clients.
Additionally, as noted in this message I forwarded, I also have found pressing 
the broadcast button when a webinar is in test only mode, seems to be 
impossible with voiceover on the Mac. How I've gotten around this is to set my 
iPhone as a alternative host, and then press the broadcast button from it.
Now I will say as outlined in this video I recorded it on YouTube:Accessible 
webinar software for the blind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJXzEYfG8NM 


That accessibility has changed from one update to another, so be sure that you 
are running the latest update of zoom just to verify that some of the mentioned 
things you brought up are not remedied.
"Good Day:


As I know it’s likely your team doesn’t monitor forms like the one below, I 
thought I should send this to you and give it to your team for feedback.
I’ve seen this type of behavior when trying to use the “broadcast”button on the 
Mac with zoom for webinars, as Voiceover doesn’t ever allow me to press it.
I suggest someone form your team subscribe to this form and to
http://applevis.com/ 
To acquire feedback from the users of your platform who are using it on a daily 
bases.
Hoping this finds you all well.
Best.

I use 1 password family, so for me it’s having the ability to quickly share

passwords on anything I pick up that’s connected to the internet… Also one 
example is when clients need to share information with me with there passwords…
And I don’t think apple needs all my passwords anyways, they already have 
enough of my information. Last feature, generating passwords…

Re: bookshare

2016-12-03 Thread Michael Babcock
thanks for that, 
I just wish i had more reliable navigation, and it could be that i’m just not 
use to navigating books in iBooks as i think this is the first or second time 
i’ve used iBooks on the mac; the iPhone on the other hand is very user friendly.
 I am sure i’ll grow to love Bookshare and iBooks once i get use to this 
workflow; just as i said in the OP i was curious if others had different/better 
workflows!
hope all are doing well.

2016-12-03 Thread Michael Babcock
good day:
This is for Bookshare members.
I could be doing it the most efficiently, however figured out that at times i 
have been missing a tool or service that can simplify my workflow. It’s time i 
bite my pride and acknowledge  that others know more then me in most situations 
;)

right now i’m finding the book i want, selecting the EPub file format and 
downloading the book. Then opening the book in iBooks on the mac. 

This works, for the most part, but if others are doing things differently i 
would love to learn what and why…
NOTE: not looking for voice dream reader on the iPhone; this is just for 
reading BS on my mac…
(BS is BookShare, not that other meaning)

Best

Re: 1Password Accounts

2016-11-30 Thread Michael Babcock
It's a lower-cost entry-level for someone who's interested in a service like 
this, and I never owned it prior to them offering a subscription-based 
opportunity, so I'm not sure if it worked this way or not in the past, however 
I can add a login item on my phone or the computer and it shows up on both of 
which are as well. My wife and I also have a shared vault, since we have the 
family addition, and anything either one of us add to that vault is instantly 
on all of our devices to
They do offer a trial if I recall right, so it may be worth exploring just to 
see if it's something that you would use the added benefits for as I assume you 
already own the standalone product?

Hope you're doing amazing

Re: Here's an interesting question for all iOS users

2016-11-08 Thread Michael Babcock
The other aspect of this is when I was living in Alaska, we used  satellite 
Internet which had limitations on the bandwidth. There  was not sell phone 
service, so the only logistical wait to make a backup of your phone would be to 
use a hardwire and back up it to your computer. That's what has gotten me into 
the routine of making weekly back ups through iTunes.

Re: Easy iPhone wireless charging hack

2016-11-06 Thread michael babcock
as it’s not ethical to just send a link to a list without information, let me 
copy and paste the article below for your reference.
Tired of waiting for Apple to add wireless charging to the iPhone? Here's how 
you can do it yourself, no screwdrivers or soldering irons required.
Here's how you can add wireless charging to your iPhone, quickly, cheaply, and 
easily, and without risking your warranty.
Here's what you need:
• A wireless charging receiver card for your iPhone. A quick search of 
somewhere like Amazon will turn up a number of solutions, such as 
BEZALEL I6 Qi wireless charger receiver patch module
http://amzn.to/2fS5XPY 
(price at publication is $16.25). 
• A Qi-compatible charger. Any of the Ones listed here will work fine:
http://www.zdnet.com/article/wireless-chargers-for-the-samsung-galaxy-s6-galaxy-s6-edge/
 

, but there are many more you can choose from out there. 
• A non-metallic flexible case or cover no thicker than 5mm (only required if 
the receiver coil you've chosen doesn't come with a case). Apple's own silicone 
cases work well (although they are expensive), as do the cheapo versions you 
can pick up from eBay or Amazon. 
Fitting the charging coil is easy. Just pop the wireless charging card into 
your iPhone's connector, fold it over the back, and pop it into a case and 
you're done.
You do lose the port on your phone (unless you're willing to disconnect the 
card) but if all you use it for is charging, then this won't matter much.
With a compatible in-car charger (such as this one:
http://amzn.to/2eDFUKC 
) you can continue to charge your iPhone when on the move. 
In my experience, these wireless charging systems work very well, and are far 
more convenient than having to plug a cable into the handset every time. The 
only time it isn't is when you want to use your iPhone while it's charging, 
then a cable is easier.

Re: Microphone Input Volume Changing

2016-11-06 Thread Michael Babcock
I wonder if the checkbox directly to the right of the slider "Use ambient noise 
reduction checked” has anything to do with it.
I have not experimented with this but just saw it as i was exploring, see i 
thought i was going crazy and was the only one with this issue. Then i found 
this article:

In this video i just published 2 hours ago, i walk you threw the process of 
Scheduling a video on youtube with voiceover to be published. The only add on 
that I want to add to this video is you can only select for the time the 
section of the video to be posted at the top of the hour, or the half hour. So 
for example you could only schedule a video to be posted at 12 AM,, or 12:30 
AM… but you do have all 24 hours to choose from.

I only mention this because I forgot to explain that better in the video, 
however here's the video and hopefully it helps someone…

Re: How To Increase the speed of a youtube video using safari and OS X (Video inside)

2016-10-22 Thread Michael Babcock
Thanks for your kind words…

I'll try to explain this in more detail!

When I'm recording videos on my Macintosh computer, I use an application I 
purchased for US$99 called screen flow. This will allow me to record the camera 
from my computer, the screen from my computer, VoiceOver from my computer, and 
my voice. I can also record in any combination of the four mentioned recording 
abilities. So for example I could record just my screen and voiceover, or my 
screen, my voice, and voiceover, or maybe just my voice and my camera…

Regarding videos on my iPhone, I use the Camera application that comes natively 
installed on iOS. I find the camera mode selector, flick  to video, make sure 
the proper camera is selected  rear facing or front facing, then press either 
one of the volume keys to start recording. Press either one of the volume keys 
to stop recording.
Let me know if any more clarification is necessary.

Hope you're doing amazing

Re: How To Increase the speed of a youtube video using safari and OS X (Video inside)

2016-10-21 Thread Michael Babcock
glad you got some use out of it. I haven’t found a way to speed videos up on 
IOS, though i did find Speedeo (i have not tested for accessibility) and it 
apparently will let you increase the speed of YT videos on IOS to 2X.

In other web based   apps, that i use daily, e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Trello, 
Slack, etc the keystroke to show keystrokes is a question mark, however google 
products is a command+/ on the mac.
That’s what i get for assuming!
sorry for the confusion all, and next time i’ll consume coffee before i reply 
to list messages :)
best.

I don’t think there is a way to type it differently, but maybe :) always stand

you can set in the drop down of the third column  of that table an app if you 
want VO to handle that Pronunciation globally or within one app.

I seen the second one; don’t have phone with me so can’t check the first one.
When the second one happens, double tap “return to call” on the status bar and 
then use that keypad.

screenflow 5 in OS X 10.12?

2016-09-20 Thread Michael Babcock
can anyone confirm if this works in OS X 10.12?
That’s the reason why i downgraded from the beta, is because SF 5 didn’t work 
in 10.12.
thanks.

Re: IOS10 Mail app changes

2016-09-15 Thread michael babcock
Apple doesn’t make there products and services to work for everyone.
All this talking about leaving because you don’t like there updates, means 
nothing honestly.
Apple is doing there marketing the right way; they aren’t in the everyone 
business and the people who do like there products and services obviously pay 
more.
What is a Mac in most cases?
A PC…
A Personal Computer … 
But apple markets a Mac as a Mac and the people who want there changes will 
continue paying for them.
I’ve seen a few people say that they don’t like the way apple is doing there 
updates, and just had to say, so what…
Switch to android, back to a Nokia N82, (Side note do they still make that 
phone?), windows 10 touch phone, etc.
#choices.
And regarding the new mail problem, yes i complained to a friend that i 
couldn’t use preview in my mail and listen to part of the messages. He didn’t 
know how to get this working, however the podcast AppleVis released helped me a 
lot.
Thanks for reading my rant.
Best.
