 - open the book on the mac once as well.

 paste the following path
 ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books
 this is the folder where apple stores the ibooks that you have downloaded

 The books are given a random number, in my case since the book was the last

 - go to that folder and then to the underlying ops folder. Here you will find 
 the chapter files.
 Its perhaps a good idea to copy the whole book to a different folder so that

Hi, my problem is that i only seem to be able to do it by using the item 
chooser and even that stops at a certain point.
If i try to read it normally then i cant get to the next page or chapter. Also 
i could never seem to figure out how to use the table of contents to navigate 
to a spot directly.
Admittedly it has been a few months since i tried this though.

Re: tip: reading 'mastering the macintosh with vo' ON THE MAC

2014-08-09 Thread Caitlyn Furness

Ah, OK.

Well, to get to the next chapter, I have made my own shortcut, control n.  
Control p is for previous chapter.  You can set these up in keyboard in the 
system prefs.  The given shortcut for next chapter in i books doesn't seem to 
work for me, it's supposed to be command shift right arrow, but all that does 
is highlight the current line here.  that's why I made my own shortcuts.
For me, after I hit control n, I have to stop intereacting with the current 
chapter and then vo right arrow to the next one, then interact again.

The table of contents doesn't stay on the screen long enough to actually 
navigate to things.  As soon as you try to move the vo cursor up or down to 
read the contents, it goes away, so this is useless for me.

I have sent email to accessibility at apple to make them aware of these things..

 - then go to the finder and use the go to folder commando (cmd+shift+g) and 
 paste the following path
 ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books
 this is the folder where apple stores the ibooks that you have downloaded 
 onto your mac.
 The books are given a random number, in my case since the book was the last 
 one i added it was easy to find just by looking at the date modified column.
 - go to that folder and then to the underlying ops folder. Here you will 
 find the chapter files.
 Its perhaps a good idea to copy the whole book to a different folder so 
 that it will be easier to find in future.

Re: tip: reading 'mastering the macintosh with vo' ON THE MAC

2014-08-09 Thread Anouk Radix

Hi, 
I have mailed aple accessibility as well.
These things should just work imho without you having to make your own 
shortcuts, the default ones should just do their job.
I am happy that it works for you though.

 Ah, OK.
 
 Well, to get to the next chapter, I have made my own shortcut, control n.  
 Control p is for previous chapter.  You can set these up in keyboard in the 
 system prefs.  The given shortcut for next chapter in i books doesn't seem to 
 work for me, it's supposed to be command shift right arrow, but all that does 
 is highlight the current line here.  that's why I made my own shortcuts.
 For me, after I hit control n, I have to stop intereacting with the current 
 chapter and then vo right arrow to the next one, then interact again.
 
 The table of contents doesn't stay on the screen long enough to actually 
 navigate to things.  As soon as you try to move the vo cursor up or down to 
 read the contents, it goes away, so this is useless for me.
 
 I have sent email to accessibility at apple to make them aware of these 
 things..
 hth,

 Hi, my problem is that i only seem to be able to do it by using the item 
 chooser and even that stops at a certain point.
 If i try to read it normally then i cant get to the next page or chapter. 
 Also i could never seem to figure out how to use the table of contents to 
 navigate to a spot directly.
 Admittedly it has been a few months since i tried this though.

 thanks for the tip.
 
 Just curious, what sorts of problems are you having trying to read in 
 ibooks with braille?  I've been doing it for about a week now and don't see 
 a problem?

 Hi everyone,
 I am not sure about the legalities of this but since ibooks on the mac is 
 rather inaccessible with a braille display and even though you can use a 
 braille display on ios it just does not feel as comfortable as reading 
 braille on a mac to me.
 So, i got this tip from an acquaintance of mine and thought i would share.
 Since this is a free and apparently unprotected ibook (this does not 
 neccessarily go hand in hand, some paid ibooks are protected others are 
 not).
 It is actually possi ble to read the ibook on the mac with safari. Epub 
 apparently is just a container, at least the text of the ibook  is some 
 kind of html.
 to do this:
 - imho its easiest to download the book on ios, make sure to open it as 
 well on that device. 
 - then open ibooks on the mac, it will ask you for your apple id so it can 
 sync with icloud
 - open the book on the mac once as well.
 - then go to the finder and use the go to folder commando (cmd+shift+g) 
 and paste the following path
 ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books
 this is the folder where apple stores the ibooks that you have downloaded 
 onto your mac.
 The books are given a random number, in my case since the book was the 
 last one i added it was easy to find just by looking at the date modified 
 column.
 - go to that folder and then to the underlying ops folder. Here you will 
 find the chapter files.
 Its perhaps a good idea to copy the whole book to a different folder so 
 that it will be easier to find in future.
