Re: A very handy way to deal with junk mail

[denise Barajas]

Hey, this certainly sounds like a very nifty and helpful tip. I'll 
totally give this a try. I will admit though, sometimes there is the 
occasional email that truly should belong in your inbox,so this is 
something to just thoroughly go through it at first. Maybe a few a day 
should work out, that way nobody needs to enslave themselves to the 
task. Anyway, hopefully this also finds you well.



Warm and sincere regards,


Denise Barajas

Hi all,

I’m posting this to the list because it was something I only just learned 
about, and it has turned out to be very handy.

Apple has an email address that you can use to report junk mail.  All you have 
to do is forward the offending message to ab...@icloud.com.  I was skeptical of 
whether this would work, but it really does.  Forwarding these messages has 
taken me down from about 250 junk mails a day, to one, if that.  When you’re 
getting as much junk mail as I was, it’s kind of a pain to have to forward 
every message, but it really does work.  It was only a matter of a few days 
before my junk mail started dropping off dramatically.

As I said, I didn’t know about this until I started googling what to do about 
excessive junk mail, so I thought there might be others here would benefit as 
well.
Cheers,
Donna

Re: Skype Issue on My MacBook Air 11 inch computer

[Denise Barajas]

Hi Helga, when you reinstall a new version of Skype, I know that you don't move 
updates as far as the contacts and I do think your conversations are intact as 
well. It's been a while since I've checked myself, so maybe I should. God bless 
to you as well and I hope this helps.

Re: Skype Issue on My MacBook Air 11 inch computer

Hello Helga, online I know of one way you can uninstall an application only. 
When you are in the Finder window, you can press command shift plus a to go 
into the applications folder. Next, do you find the Skype application and you 
simply delete it and that's how you uninstall an app. I hope this helps

Re: Anyone install OS X 10.11.4?

[Denise Barajas]

I've installed it, but I don't see mch of a difference. the only thing that is 
currently odd is that VO sometimes goes from speaking through my internal 
speakers from the USB. It's every so offten, so I'll try and flip VO off and on 
again to see if that fixes the issue. blessings to all.

Yes, he is using safari and shift plus down arrow, but voice over would always

issue from a friend

[Denise Barajas]

Hello all,
I recently was talking to a friend of mine who claims to be having issues when 
trying to copy and paste text from the Internet fromhis Mac onto a different 
location. I heard him try and mess with the command, but Voiceover kept 
repeating the first thing he was selecting all the time, and we made sure that 
things like quick nav were off and the like. I believe he's using a Macbook Pro 
2013 but he is also using the latest version of Yosemeti. He's tried to restart 
the machine and VO, but to no avail. If any suggestions could be offered, that 
would greatly be appreciated.
Blessings to oyou all.

Re: OSX 10.11.2

[Denise Barajas]

Hi, I never had any problems since upgrading. The only locational issue I had 
was with voiceover crashing and sometimes I had issues deleting a message 
immediately after reading which in turn, what force me to close the message and 
have to delete it that way. Other than that, I never found any other issues 
with instability.
May God richly bless you.

Re: Apple car, anyone?

[Denise Barajas]

This certainly would be very interesting. I haven't really heard or read very 
much of anything, due to the fact that I myself find myself extremely occupied 
more or less on the daily basis. When I'm not going to school, I kind of just 
chill out and try to either run my own errands out of the house and usually 
when I'm in the public transit system, I like to get lost in my favorite music. 
Otherwise, if I stay home, I try my best to try and catch up with important 
email, or I just play my mud client game. It certainly does think a few 
questions though. How safe and how credible could a project like this be 
especially for those of us with no vision? There are many more that can come to 
my mind at the moment, but I can't really think of writing them, as I'm barely 
starting my day myself. Either way though, I have posted this on various places 
and if they do turn out to be well equipped and well established, I might 
consider going to try one of them myself. I hope these thoughts don't sound too 
general or two simple. Blessings to all of you

Re: VoiceOver On, Speech Off, on a MacBook Pro

[Denise Barajas]

Hello, this option can usuallybe toggled if you have a trackpad active by
tripple finger double tapping on the trackpad in the middle of your screen
to switch the setting. If you are not having this option active with the
trackpad, then you will have to solicit assistance from someone that's
sighted. I hopet this helps you.

Blessings to you.

 Good morning, all.

 I have a MacBook Pro that I booted up this morning. It didn’t speak the
 usual “voiceover is running” greetings, so I did a command f 5 to turn
 voiceover on. I was told that VO was on, but speech was off. Is there an
 easy way to get speech back on? I’m not sure how it got turned off in the
 first place, but, since it says nothing once it tells me that speech is
 off, the machine is not usable at this point.

 Thanks in advance.

question about audio hijack 3

[Denise Barajas]

Hello all,

I can’t remember how to make a new sesion for audio hijack pro so I can have 
certain things as they once were on the previous version of audio hijack. So, I 
need VLC to work with soundflower to make it work with skype and I also want 
the system audio to be transmited so that I can play stuff say from safari to 
someone over skype and stuff. I dont want to make tons of blocks to help me 
with a huge chain of a project. If someone could please tell me how to do this 
again, as I’ve had this work only once with a friend of mine guiding me through 
the whole process, I’d greatly appreciate it.

 Hello everyone,
 
 The subject line summarizes my inquiry.
 I note that “custom” sounds can be assigned to FaceTime callers, but how can 
 additional sounds be added to this default list, so that personalized sounds 
 and ringtones can be options from which to select from?
 Or, if this is not possible, how can the default sounds be accessed, so they 
 can be modified to reflect the personal ringtones and sounds of choice?
 If neither is possible, again, another customization element where Apple 
 seems to be late to the game.
 
 P.S. I note that when inserting the set of personalized sounds into  either 
 “~/library/sounds,” or into “~/library/audio/alerts,” or into 
 “~/library/audio/sounds,” they do not appear for me to select in other 
 applications as well. If I am misguided in my attempts, then I welcome any 
 correction that will solve this problem.
 
 Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Re: Howdy, everybuddy!

Hey Keith, glad to hav you hear on the list! I really hope you can get those 
dreams of yours to come true. I do know what it's like to not always have the 
means to do whatever your heart desires. as for me, my absolute biggest dream 
before anything else is still to attend the southern California Conservatory of 
Music, or SCCM for short. I actually had a chance to do a research paper during 
my senir year of high school, one of which I'm very glad about. But like you've 
said, vocation rehab doesn't really care t help me with such an idea, so I'll 
look around and see how far I can manage with family. Hope yo have a blessed 
day  and again, it was nice to see you here.

 Hi to all members, new or long-time to Mac Visionaries:
 I wanted to take a second to intraduce myself in general to the rest
 of you.
 Some of you, I've heard on Podcasts, voice wise at least, and I've
 even talked to some of you throughout the years in several online
 forms, Skype being the latest method.
 To start off with, I live in a small town called Prescott, located in
 the awesome state of Arizona.
 I'm 24 years old-and in just s few short months, on May 23, I'll be
 turning 25, so that should be pretty awesome!
 
 I've grown up computer technology wise first starting with jAWS for
 DOS in the second grade, and even  what I suspect in the first grade
 as an Apple two E machine, though i never used any speech technology
 or screen-readers back then, and always had sighted help.
 Windows, as years whent on, later became the primary platform, and for
 specific screen readers like Serotek's System Access that I pay a
 monthly subscription for, I'll generally use Windows (though more and
 more often on a VM in VMware fusion,) for that kind of purpose.
 Finally, as of June 2011 I finally had something I could sel on
 BlindBargains to a Technology Specialest who wanted this Alva Braille
 Display I wasn't using, and with the money I earned I was able to pick
 up the MacBookPro for $1,366 on Amazon. I got my macbOok Pro, 13
 intch, Core I7, 2.7GHZ, 4GB RAM, 500GB internal hard-drive, Super DVD
 drive, with Lion already the default oS as no dVD shipped, back in
 November, 08, 2011.
 One of my friends who is a member of this list, was actually around
 for the unboxing on Skype, a rather fun thing to experience.
 At first, I thought that maybe I'd use it for a lot of the things I
 kno some folks have, being a listener of both the MacCessibility
 roundTablePodcast, and of the ScreenlessSwitchers podcast, just to
 name a few, and of course a lot of the Mac podcasts that mike has done
 on BlindCoolTech being some of the things that got my mind finally
 made up.
 Now we get into some of the real background stuff that I'm sure you
 folks will be interested in.
 I've been a pianest for over 11 years, I first got myf irst little
 keyboard when I was like 4 or 5.
 Over the years I got better stuff, until I finally was able with some
 help from one of my teachers down in tucson, to get what i had most
 wanted..the yamaha P85, 88 key waited-keys keyboard, with the coolest
 thing that at the time I couldn't take advantage of, MIDI ports.
 Finally, just a week or two back, I purchased on recommendations from
 a  new skype friend I've made in south Affrica, The EMU-XMIDI1X1 USB
 MIDI interface cable, and began to try, and record with the already
 isntalled iLife11 GarageBand application.
 I enjoy the quality of the garageBand instruments, but then I quickly
 found out some things about the program.
 First, I need a way to export the raw MIDI instructions as a MID (Dot
 Mid) file, prefered MIDI type one, but in garageband itself after my
 firend and i did some looking around, we concluded that this is not
 possible.
 Sure, you can export stuff to MP3, etc, but you cannot export the
 actual MIDI data.
 Also, the ability to edit the MIDI data for mistakes, etc, doesn't
 seem to be possible, within the GarageBand editor is a Scrol Area
 that appears to not be accessible entirely to VoiceOver.
 So, I next began looking around for something else I could use that of
 course has software instruments (and not cruddy ones, at that.)
 I had considered logicPro, because I  can actually afford that within
 my extremely tight budget that I have to work with, but found a post
 from this group that prompted me to subscribe Don't recall the names
 of the two posters off hand..sorry about that.
 But anyhow, two people posted to some thread, one poster considering
 logicProNine, and the other poster a former musician I believe
 explained that ProTools is far more accessible to VoiceOver, and that
 Apple must reright LogicPro entirely, or something and to go with
 ProTools.
 So I started looking around at ProTools on places like Sweetwater,
 only to discover that basicly as things stand I'll never be able to
 save up enough money, not even in a five month basis to afford
 ProTools, at least not any time soon,and no, my 

a rather difficult question about converting e-mail

Hello all,

I've been dying to ask this question for a long time, but I thought I would get 
some outside source  help, but to no avail. I have a Windows XP computer which 
contains several sentimental e-mails on a few programs I've tried. Is there any 
way I could get step-by-step instructions on converting these to send these to 
the Mac Mail application? I know this might be a very dificult question, but if 
someone could please help, I'd greatly aprpeciate it. thanks so much,

Re: a rather difficult question about converting e-mail

[Denise Barajas]

That's a lot more hassle. I would like to simply find a way to transfer these 
e-mails to an external or some removable medium, convert these to whatever form 
the Mac will recognize for the mail client and simply get rid of those 
programs. It's either that or I have to switch out systems, as these are both 
desktop computers and I would simply not have to have the windows machine 
connect to the internet. If you have skype, please write me privately and we 
can have a chat to better understand each other with this query. Thanks, and 
hope to read from you soon. Blessings!

Re: The Mac and bookshare books

[Denise Barajas]

Hello Shannon, I being a Bookshare user only read these files with saphari from 
time to time. When I interract with the html content, I can see the contents of 
the book. But for the most part, I use my VR Stream. I usually never have seen 
such an option to save such books as texts. I thought I'd try and help in this 
manner by telling you my experience only. I've always been wondering about an 
app that will let me read Daisy books from Bookshare for the Mac, but haven't 
found or heard of much development to date. Hope this helps you with something. 
Take care and God bless!

 Hi, all.
 
 I'm wondering if anyone has an answer to this question. I imagine someone, 
 somewhere, must, which is good, as I am quite baffled.
 
 When I used Windows, I could open an .xml file that I had downloaded from 
 bookshare. Internet explorer would open, and I could read the book, save it 
 as a .txt file, etc. However, I can't figure out how to get safari to do this.
 
 I opened an .xml file, and safari opened, but it wouldn't show me the 
 contents of the book. It just kept showing me a list of things like top 
 sites, and a checkbox that was related to book marks. It said I could 
 interact with the .html content, but, when I did, it was blank.
 
 Does anyone have any ideas as to how bookshare books can be read on the Mac? 
 If so, I would appreciate the help.

 How To View Only Upcoming or Active Appointments In Mac OS X Lion’s 
 Calendar Application
  
 Hello Everyone, 
  
 One of my favorite features in Microsoft Outlook is the ability to view 
 only upcoming (active) appointments in the calendar. 
  
 Apparently, Apple does not think I need this feature in the latest version 
 of iCal.  (grimace)
  
 While there are certainly some very fine third-party applications that will 
 allow me to see only upcoming appointments, I am of the opinion that less 
 is better; therefore, I resist installing such applications unless 
 absolutely necessary.  Besides, there is no guaranty that said third-party 
 applications, for which I may have to pay a premium, will be VoiceOver 
 (Apple’s software screen reading solution for the blind and low vision) 
 accessible.
  
 Enter the Mac OS X Lion Dashboard of which I am growing quite fond, and all 
 its marvelous, and for the most part free, widgets.
  
 It is with such a widget that we can view only upcoming or active 
 appointments.
  
 Oh, keep in mind that iCal refers to appointments as events. 
  
 Let’s get started.
  
 1.
 Download and install a free Mac OS Dashboard widget called iCal Events.  
 Its description is as follows: 
 iCal Events... Face the day! Always know what's next on your schedule using 
 iCal Events. iCal Events displays upcoming events from multiple iCal 
 calendars in a beautiful, resizable widget for Dashboard. You can see up to 
 two weeks of upcoming events in the same widget without needing to open 
 iCal.
  
 2.
 After installing the widget, I suggest that you close the web browser used 
 to download the widget.
  
 3.
 Now go to the Dashboard and see the widget in action.  I suggest using the 
 key combination [Option+LeftArrow] to quickly jump to the Dashboard.  
 Please note that you can change the number of days shown in the widget by 
 clicking on the Info button.
  
 Enjoy,
  
 Mark
