I Thought That Some Might Be Interested To Hear This
I thought that some of you might be interested in hearing this interview with my wife Bronwyn. She has come such a long way since I first introduced her to the iPhone more than 3 years ago and I am very proud of her. From: Bob Branco mailto:branco...@verizon.net Sent: Sunday, February 22, 2015 7:40 PM To: Robert Branco mailto:branco...@verizon.net Subject: tomorrow (Monday, February 23) on Branco Broadcast, Brie Rumery of Fedora Outlier, 3:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time Tomorrow (Monday, February 23), Brie Rumery of Fedora Outlier will be our featured guest on Branco Broadcast at 3:00 p.m. Eastern, 2:00 Central, 1:00 Mountain, and 12:00 Pacific Time. Fedora Outlier assists people with today’s computer technology in many ways. To participate on Branco Broadcast, please call 712-432-3645. When it asks, press 1 for the main menu, 1 for the rooms menu, and 6 for my conference room. Bronwyn “Brie” Rumery is a Junior Partner along with being the Public Relations/Social Media Liaison for Fedora Outlier, LLC. She is also the co-author of Fedora’s “Old Hat Guide to iPhone Accessibility” e-books and also moderates a weekly interactive Twitter chat entitled, #AccessChat-A Twitter Chat Committed to Access. Fedora Outlier, LLC was founded in June of 2012 by Managing Partner VaShaun Jones and it is the nation’s first provider of consulting, teaching and support for Apple’s range of accessible technologies (including the Mac, iPhone and iPad), Fedora Outlier, LLC, partners with private consumers, agencies and government organizations to provide better than excellent products and services to encourage, equip and empower users to do more with their technology. The entire team, including Brie, are either blind or visually impaired and use some or all of Apple’s products on a daily basis. Therefore, the knowledge and experience she and her fellow colleagues offer their clients is not only innovative but “Top Down Better Than Excellent.” Brie’s claim to fame at the firm is the fact that she suffers from technophobia and that there was a time that she was quite terrified to even think about learning how to use an iPhone. Thus, the first e-book for the firm was conceived which is a true depiction of Brie’s journey from being “scared to death” to becoming not only a loyal iOS fan but an experienced teacher as well. Brie is also proud to be the moderator of a weekly interactive chat entitled, “#AccessChat-A Twitter Chat Committed To Access,” which takes place on Tuesday evenings via Twitter at 8:00 PM Eastern. This chat allows the blindness community the opportunity to interact with individuals, organizations or brands that are making and continue to make a difference within the blindness community. When Brie is not busy working she enjoys spending time in Jasper, Georgia with her husband Scott, daughter Makayla and their two German Shepherd Fidelco guide dogs. She also enjoys writing short stories poetry, crafting, listening to various types of music and of course playing word games on her iPhone.

Re: My Amadeus Pro Tutorial is Now available
Hi Jonathon, I just purchased your new audio book in both mp3 and Daisy audio and it has made me curious. What tool do you use to create the Daisy audio, and do you do it on a Mac or on Windows?

Re: Request for resources
There are many free and paid resources out there if you look. Because we all learn differently it is hard to know if you would benefit from just listening to podcasts on the subject or if you would be better off going with a paid instructor or something. In full disclosure I can tell you that I work for Fedora Outlier, LLC and that we do offer one to one teaching on the Mac and we also have a do it yourself product called the Mac Master Series in which you will go to our website http://www.macmasterseries.com http://www.macmasterseries.com/ and sign up and then you can go through all of the content on learning how to use your Mac with VoiceOver that we have created. To learn more about these services go to http://www.fedoraoutlier.com http://www.fedoraoutlier.com/ or http:www.macmasterseries.com I hope that this helps.

A WordPress Question
For those on the list that are experienced with using the hosted version of WordPress I have a question for you. I am currently working on a project at work that requires me to write up blog posts that have a video recording in them. I then upload this video to our YouTube page. Now I know that I can just put the link to this video link the post, but I would actually like to have the video embedded on the page so it will show up as a frame. This was working a few days ago but for some reason it no longer works. I have tried using a YouTube plug in but still it doesn't work. In reading some of the WordPress documentation for our installed version of WordPress which is 3.9.1 I have learned that this should work automatically by just pasting the url on its own line in the post but again this doesn't work for me. My question to those who have experience with using the WordPress back end is: does the pasting of a naked url in a post on your site automatically embed the video in the post? Thank you for any help with this issue.

Re: Stability of the Mac
Hello Scott, You will probably get a lot of varying opinions on this topic so you will have to decide which ones you will take seriously or not. Having said this let me first tell you that ever since I switched to using a Mac more than 3 years ago I have become probably one of the biggest Apple fan boys that there is, so my thoughts on this subject are going to have a strong Apple bias to them. If you are wanting a computing environment that is very stable compared to what you are currently getting on the Windows platform then in my opinion you would be very happy with a Mac. The instability of my Windows computer is exactly what helped me to make the decision to make the switch over 3 years ago. I used to have to restart my Windows computer several times a day and now that I am on a Mac I hardly ever need to reboot. You will notice that I said hardly. I have had to restart my Mac once in a while due to lost speech or something, but as I stated with the use the word hardly this does not happen with any regularity. Now having said all of this let me give you a little word of caution about switching platforms. I teach blind people who make this switch how to use their Macs for a company called Fedora Outlier, LLC and one the biggest mistakes that people make is thinking that switching from a Windows computer over to a Mac computer is going to be easy. It isn't as easy as one might think. After all you are going to have to learn how to use a totally different operating system and a new and different screen reader. Now having said this if you are determined to learn the new platform and you do it correctly by this I mean that you don't try and learn everything in one day you can definitely learn how to use a Mac very quickly. One more thing. In response to your question as to whether or not a Mac is more stable than a Windows computer. Remember earlier when I said that when I was still using a Windows computer I would have to restart the computer several times a day, well with my current Mac which is 2012 Mac Book Pro with 4 Gigabytes of ram I haven't had to restart it in about 2 weeks. My Mac is on 24 hours a day. During the day when I am working I am actually using it, and at night the Mac will just sleep, but it hasn't been turned off in at least 2 weeks now and VoiceOver is running flawlessly . I hope that all of this helps you with your decision and if you need anything else please just ask. Have a great day, Scott Rumery On Apr 1, 2014, at 11:44 AM, Scott Duck scottduck1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Everyone, As I said previously, I am thinking about getting a Mac and the main reason is that I am tired of the increasing instability of the PC environment. My first question is, is this really different on a Mac? I am using JAWS 15 with Windows 8. Both are not all that stable. I have been a JAWS user for 17 years and I have noticed a definite progressive increase in instability with the last few releases. JAWS crashes frequently and, even if it doesn't crash, it often stops talking when errors occur with other applications. Then, there's Windows 8. I don't mind the Windows 8 interface but several times per week, I will have a problem that requires me to restart my computer. I did not have that nearly as much with Windows 7. Also, it isn't unusual for me to install a program which will, either directly or through add ins, make Windows and/or JAWS more unstable. I then have to decide rather the additional functionality is worth the increased instability. I'm just tired of all the crashes and reboots and having to use three or four screen readers because I have to run one when another one crashes. By contrast, my iPhone and iPad, while not perfect, are certainly more stable. VoiceOver seldom just stops working. Of course, every single app is not accessible and they do not all work correctly but any problems with an app are almost always confined only to that app. When an app crashes, it usually does not also cause VoiceOver or the device to crash. Is this also true of the Mac? I have certainly used technology enough to know that none of it is perfect. However, I would like something that is better than the PC, when it comes to stability. Over all, in your experience, is the Mac more stable? Thanks, Scott Duck -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Using FaceTime Audio
After updating to OS 10.9.2 yesterday the first thing that I wanted to try was making an audio only call from my Mac. It took me some digging around to figure out how to place the call and then when I did figure this out my call kept failing. After doing several searches on Google I stumbled across an Apple Support thread on the failure of FaceTime calls and I was able to follow some instructions that someone had posted to get it working on my Mac. Here is a blog post that I wrote about this.

I hope that if anyone else is having this issue that this will help them to fix it. http://www.fedoraoutlier.com/facetime-audio-calls-finally-come-mac/ Scott Rumery Whatever happens keep your sense of humor -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Facetime Audio Fails Using Mavericks
Here is what I had to do to get FaceTime Audio to work. 1 Click the Finder icon in the Dock. 2 Choose Go to Folder from the Go menu. 3 Type: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration 4 Click Go. 5 In the Finder window, locate the file named NetworkInterfaces.plist and drag this file to the Trash. 6 Restart your computer.

I have heard it said that you should forget about everything you ever knew when you are switching from one to the other. VoiceOver is different from WindowEyes or Jaws. However, I sort of don't agree with what some have said because computer is a computer. There are differences, true, but there are a lot of samenesses as well.

Re: Help From The Community
Okay just to be clear on this. I am not asking anyone who has already purchased this program for Windows to purchase it again, if fact this is one of the reasons why I would like to get this project completed because Christopher the developer says that he would have a model in which if you owned one version such as the Windows version that you would also be able to use that program license on the other platform without having to purchase another license. When I first approached him about making a Mac version of Q-Read, my intentions were completely selfish because I would like to have something like this available to us Mac users but as he and I talked via emails and he told me what it would take for him to put the time and expense into this project I told him that I would try and get him the 40 Mac users that he said he would need before getting started on this. If you are not comfortable with agreeing to purchase a program sight unseen I am sure that we will have an opportunity to beta test this application before it is ready for release but don’t hold me to that one because I haven’t yet asked him if this will be the case or not. I am just assuming it is so because most software developers do like to have their software tested before they deem it done. Again, I am only trying to get someone who has a talent for crating accessible software to realize that there are a lot of us on the Mac platform that would probably enjoy the chance to use some of his soft ware on our Macs and I thought that if I put the message out to the community that I would be able to round up the 40 Mac users that he has requested. If after reading this you would like to be involved in making this project a reality just let me know and I will add you to my list, if not then that is fine as well, but please don’t bash someone for trying to do something that he believes would be a good thing for the blind Mac users out there. I am only trying to come up with a solution to a problem that I have on a daily basis and that is the lack of a truly accessible eBook and PDF reader on the Mac platform. Thank you all for your indulgence and letting me get this out. Scott Rumery On Dec 3, 2013, at 3:30 PM, Scott Davert scottslistm...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all. You can't blame a guy for dumping a project that was free. if it happened to QRead itself, or Hope, you'd have a valid point, but for things that are free, it essentially means you support it out of your own free time. This seems like a good Kickstarter campaign to me. Since I purchased the QRead software for Windows, I'm not sure I'd rebuy it. I'd certainly not commit to buying something that doesn't exist yet, and would require full braille support of the text before I would consider it. IN other words, self voicing is useless to me specifically, so I wouldn't support such a venture.

If there are bugs, he has the responsibility to correct them. Simply taking the money and then abandoning the software project would be considered theft in most places.

Hello everyone, I hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving holiday and that now that we are all back to reality with work and all of the other things that we do on a daily basis that you will allow me the opportunity to let you in on a little project of mine. I recently learned of an accessible ebook reading application called Q-Read. This is currently only available on the Windows platform but I have been in contact with the developer who is blind and he has told me that if I can gather at least 40 Mac users who will agree to purchase the program once he builds it that he will indeed build it for the Mac. My question for you all is, would you be interested in such a program on the Mac and if yes would you please let me know if you will purchase his application for $30 once it is built? His ultimate goal is to create cross platform software for the blind on Windows and Macs so once you buy one license you can use his software on whatever platform that you need it on. Please let me know privately at blindfait...@gmail.com if I can add your name to the list of participants for this project.

Re: Help From The Community
Again, all great points and thank you for putting the information up about the different formats. I agree, we should not simply dismiss the potential of this program just because we may not agree with things that the developer has done previously. Having said this I would hope that people would at least give it a look and make an educated decision on whether not they want to back the project.

Yes, Qwitter was quite a big deal, but as I recall there were problems beyond users asking questions. Hope has not been updated, but honestly, it works well and is not lacking any features I can find, so does it really need an update? I'm not saying I would commit to buying Q-Read for Mac, since I know I would not use it enough (I read mostly on my iPhone) but look into this more before dismissing it out of hand. Yes, iBooks is now on the Mac, but can anyone really call using it a good reading experience?

Evernote On Mac
Good morning all, I am trying to use Evernote on my Mac and I can’t seem to locate the Sign In button. When I launch the application I am presented with 3 edit fields, Email, username, and password. After the password field I have some unlabeled buttons and a Register button. I already have an Evernote account so the Register button does not do me any good.

Re: Anyone Using a Logitech K750 or K760 Bluetooth Keyboard
Thank you for letting us know what you think of this keyboard. David Woodbridge's podcast on this keyboard is where I first heard about it and it is the ability to quickly switch from one device to the other that has me thinking of getting it. Scott On Jul 10, 2013, at 2:24 PM, Brian Fischler blindga...@gmail.com wrote: Hey Scott and others. Amazing as the Logitech K760 got here today. First impressions are pretty good. I had been using the Apple Bluetooth keyboard that comes with the iMac. I notice that this keyboard is a little further raised up than the Apple keyboard, but I am sure once you get accustomed to it, you won't even notice it. The touch of the keys are a little different but comfortable. The Apple keyboard feels much sleeker. If you have been using the Apple Bluetooth keyboard than the layout of this keyboard is identical, and the keys feel exactly the same size. The key size was a concern of mine, as some times they are a little smaller and that really annoyed me on my bluetooth keyboard that folds up as I was constantly typing a key off at times. The ability to switch between the mac and iPhone by just pressing F1 and F2 is the reason to get this keyboard. It switches in seconds once you get them paired. Listen to David Woodbridge's AppleVis podcast to learn how to pair it, but it is pretty simple, as I got both the mac and iPhone paired in minutes with little problems. I believe there is an app or some kind of software for the keyboard, but I haven't explored that yet. The keyboard was $50 from Amazon, and being that I rely on a keyboard to do everything, it is nice to now have two in case anything ever happens to one. Hope this review and feedback was helpful.

VM Ware Help Needed
Hello, I have a client who is trying to use VM Ware with a Windows 7 install on their Mac Mini and he has run into a problem. When he tries to use his Virtual install of Windows whenever he presses a key on his keyboard Windows is registering the key press several times. This is making it unusable by my client. I instructed him to check the Ease of Access Center on the Windows install to check and see if Sticky keys is enabled, but beyond that I am not sure what else could be causing this problem. Is there anyone on the list that has had this happen to them? I would really like to know how you resolved this.

Re: Announcing the Beta of Talking Dashboard
Hi Alex, Thank you for these. I want to at some point learn how to write my own Apple Scripts but as of yet I haven't started that task. As I clicked on your link Safari opened but all that I had was an empty html content area, so thinking that something went wrong, I clicked on it again, and again, and then one more time before I got the bright idea to check my Downloads folder to see if what I was actually doing was downloading this file over, and over again. Sure enough, I had about 4 copies of the file which brings me to my question for you. Would it be possible for you to write an Apple Script that could give the user some confirmation when a download had actually started and ended? This would be a great piece of information to have.

Mission Control
Hello All, I am exploring Mission Control on my Mac because I have heard that you can set up multiple desktops in it. For instance, I have a work related Safari website that I need quick access to during my workday and I would like to be able to use Mission Control to make this a desktop so that I can quickly flip over to it when I need it.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
I have recent as my sorting order and they still show up. She does not need these titles any more but I can't delete them because when I view my library on Amazon the delete link is in an image, at least this is what Voice Over is telling me. I have talked to Amazon and I was told that the Delete from Library link is actually a piece of JavaScript that the screen readers are having trouble with. The person that I was talking to said that he will forward this to the appropriate person and that they needed to get this fixed, but I am not holding my breath. Scott On May 1, 2013, at 1:13 PM, Mary Otten motte...@gmail.com wrote: Scott, Does your daughter still need access to those kindle titles? If not, then I believe you can sign in to your amazon account, go to manage my Kindle, or something like that, and in there, you can actually delete the books, which means, should you need them again, you'd have to repurchase them. If you don't want to do that, then I don't think there is a way you can stop those older books from showing up when your Amazon app is set to view the items in the cloud. But if you sort by recent, wouldn't all those older titles show up after anything you buy? This is assuming you have not been buying Kindle books for yourself until now, of course.

1 Password again
Hello listers, I almost hate to post on this subject as I got blasted the last time but I am still having some difficulties with 1 Password. Let me see if I can explain what is happening. I cannot seem to get the program to auto submit my saved log in information for a particular site. I have several of my accounts set up inside of 1 Password and upon successfully logging into the program I then go to the log ins table, and focus on the item that I want to log into, then I press the keyboard combination of option, command return which is followed by Voice Over saying Auto Fill in Browser. At this point Safari will open to the desired website but I will only be on the page in which I need to enter in my log in info. Am I wrong for thinking that the program should log me into the site upon pressing the keyboard command, or am I mistaken? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: 1 Password Help
Thank you Rod, you are the first person to tell me that the 1 Password extension is not accessible with Voice Over. I guess that I will just have to teach our client how to use it without utilizing the extension. Do you have a list of commonly used keyboard commands that you can share with me that will make using 1 Password a little easier?

YoruFukurou
Hello listers, I have been using YoruFukurou since I moved over to the Mac more than a year ago. I tried several Twitter clients since I have been using a Mac and I find that YoruFukurou is about the best when it comes to accessibility, but I do have one problem with the program. When I am trying to reply to someones tweet by pressing the return key on my keyboard for some reason YoruFukurou is selecting a different tweet than the one Voice Over is reading. The only way that I can seem to get YoruFukurou to reply to the correct tweet is to interact with that specific tweet and then press return. My question to the group is, is this the way that YoruFukurou is suppose to behave or am I doing something wrong?

Re: YoruFukurou
Yes this was the issue here. I found the solution just after posting my message. Another thing is that you need to have quicknav turned off and you need to use the dedicated arrow keys instead of using the number pad.

Odd Problem With Amadeus Pro
Hello, I am having an odd problem with Amadeus Pro. I installed the 30 day trial of the program and I was having an issue where every time I launched the program the previous sound file that I was working on would always open on launch. That in and of itself is not unusual but the problem is that I cannot close this window. When I press command Q, or command W all that I get is a buzzing sound. The only way that I can exit the program is to force quit. The other problem is that I cannot open a new sound project or do anything with this open project. All of the items are dimmed. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. I have also repaired disc permissions thinking that this would fix the problem, still no luck. Does anyone out there have any suggestions as to what the problem could be? I would love to get this fixed as I would like to be able to use this program. I should also mention that I did purchase the program thinking that maybe the problem was some kind of limitation that the demo version had, still no luck.

Re: Google Plus?
Hi Mike, We were going to try and use Google Plus for our podcast but we found it to be very hard if not impossible to use. I do agree with you that this would be a great option if it were completely accessible, but it isn't at this point. Do you plan on using Skype for the podcast? If so, we might have some trouble with the sound quality at times. By this I mean that on my end when I am using Skype will become a bit choppy and the person on the other end will have some trouble hearing me. I think that we might be able to do something about this though. If we are going to do this through Skype then maybe if we make sure that nothing else but Skype and Voice Over is running on our computers. I am not sure if this will help, but it couldn't hurt.

Re: Google Plus?
Plus with that approach of having all participants record their part of the podcast and then send it to you for the final edit I would think that you would lose the interactivity of all participants as they would not be able to talk to one another in order to have a conversation. I think that that the conversational aspect of doing a podcast like this is crucial.

That is the plan as of right now. The only other way I have heard it done is to have each person just record their own voice, then everyone sends it to the same person who then lines them all up in an editing program and then you have nice quality for everyone. the problem is that aligning the recordings correctly can be a pain and honestly this is much more work then it's worth with it comes to multiple people. We will make due with what we have and go from there. We'll talk more about this sort of thing tonight.

I do agree with you that this would be a great option if it were completely accessible, but it isn't at this point. Do you plan on using Skype for the podcast? If so, we might have some trouble with the sound quality at times. By this I mean that on my end when I am using Skype will become a bit choppy and the person on the other end will have some trouble hearing me. I think that we might be able to do something about this though. If we are going to do this through Skype then maybe if we make sure that nothing else but Skype and Voice Over is running on our computers. I am not sure if this will help, but it couldn't hurt.

Well, for those of you that wish there were more alternatives besides Nuance, Cepstral, and Acapela, these same Cereproc voices for the Android are also available for the Mac. I went to their website to see how good these voices sound and, in my opinion, they beat both Nuance and Acapela. They are really good! As a matter of fact, if I can't, ahem, find a torrent for them, I'm thinking of buying a few of them. The price is pretty affordable, about $42 US. I don't know how much that converts to in Canadian dollars, but I really like them and want to get them. So thanks Mike for introducing me to these voices.

Drop Box Issue
Hello, I am having some trouble with DropBox. More specifically, I have 2 team members that are having an issue with their DropBox folders do not update when I add something to a shared folder. The files will be visible if the go to the DropBox website and log into their account, but if they open their DropBox on their computer the file or files will not be there. I have tried to unlink the accounts and then relink them but still the problem persists. I should mention that both of these team members are on Windows computers but that should not make a difference. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try to fix this?

No, this is not a blog post about The Rolling Stones classic, or for those of us that grew up in the 1980's the Billy Ocean hit either. This is a blog post about all of those cloud based services that you hear about these days. In this post I will talk about two cloud offerings from Apple and why you may want to use them. So, sit back and launch your Pandora application on your iPhone and listen to your Rolling Stones station, or if you must you can launch that favorite Eighties channel and listen for that Billy Ocean classic that I was talking about before.

If you all like this would you please consider passing it on to any lists that you are on? We really need your help with getting the word out.

View it in your browser. In this issue: 1. Empowerment 2. Firm Update 3. Call To Action 4. From The Blog 5. Empowerment Quote __ EMPOWERMENT Empowerment is a mechanism by which individuals, groups and communities gain mastery over their affairs. Our firm seeks to empower the blind to find or create a career they find meaningful, purposeful and profitable. __ FIRM UPDATE What is just shy of leaps and bounds? I guess it would be a hot skip and a jump. Whatever the case we are growing by the week. We not only have new team members we also have new accounts in two states, putting the count at 3. Our goal by 2016 is to be in all U.S. states. We can't say too much about the book we will be releasing later this year but what we can say it's going to be like one you have never seen before. It will have audio, video, and photos right in the book. It will be the first ever multi-media book accessible to the blind and at a cost that will knock your socks off. That sounds like the price will be high, but its going to be really cheap for what you get. The teaser is it will be written on the Apple secrets on how to master iOS. The truth of the matter is that we are excited about the lives we change, the fun we have doing it and the pleasure we derive from the Apple WOW factor and our ability to bring to the blind community something they have never seen before. LOL __ CALL TO ACTION OK, here's the deal! The numbers on new subscribers to this newsletter for this month is low based on our goal of 40 new subscribers per week. We are at 82. If you love us you'll tell us that you don't like all or a part of our newsletter and tell us what you would like to see in future issues, so we can improve them. The changes we are making on our end is that we've brought on a social media maven and she's going to help promote and boost the numbers and help with subscribers. Twitter is going good and Facebook has a face of its own with 2 page LIKES this week. We'll need to get these numbers up if we want to make an impact in the social-verse, so tell your friends, family and enemies to follow us. We thank you for your help thus far. _ FROM THE BLOG Reading Is Fundamental Posted under:Blind,Empowerment,Story,You and Technology by Brie How are you able to enjoy reading a book if you can’t see?
