Hi John,
Nice to know that you are on the group too.
Sadly it's not working out for me on Text Edit. I have tried all the 
options that you suggested.
Also, I don't want to open the document in a web brouzer. This is because I 
want to have the option of editing it if required.

Hi

What is the best way to read book length documents on Mac?


I have large Word files from my Windows computer. These files take a lot of time loading on Mac when I open them on Word.


With Pages and Text Edit, I am facing a strange problem. I prefer to read paragraph by paragraph. But whenever Voiceover encounters a page break, it starts reading character by character.


I have taking this issue to Apple Accessibility and they have not been able to help.


My Word documents are 300 to 400 pages long. Can anyone please advise?


Thanks,


Moiz.

Reading book length documents with Text Edit and Pages

2024-01-12 Thread moiz tundawala


Hi All,

I am an academic and a new Mac user. I have started reasonably well, 
learning from John Panarese’s tutorials and other materials available 
online. As a researcher and scholar, I need to read and engage with 
multiple book length documents at the same time. My initial impression 
about Microsoft Word is that it does not work well with large documents on 
Mac. So I am trying out Text Edit and Pages. But here is a strange problem.

When I open a book length document on Text Edit/Pages/Word on Mac, I first 
interact with it to read the text. I use the quick arrow keys and my own 
commander shortcuts to read paragraph by paragraph.

Voiceover starts alright, but as it moves to a new page, it announces page 
break and I hear the beep sound indicating either entering invisible or 
visible section. After this, Voiceover weirdly begins to read character by 
character. It works fine when I go to the next paragraph. But the same 
problem occurs once again when Voiceover moves to the next page. This is 
extremely annoying, and I want Voiceover to read paragraph by paragraph 
smoothly across pages.

The books I am reading are in Word format which I am opening in Text Edit 
and Pages.

What settings do I need to change to stop Voiceover from getting stuck on 
pagebreaks?

As I mentioned, I need to work with large documents and I am looking for 
the best way to do this on Mac.

Warmly,

Moiz.

If you're looking for version history, then it's discussed in this article:

According to the article, you can obtain a list of prior versions of a

Re: Text Edit on after Mac sleeps

2022-10-14 Thread Jürgen Fleger
I do experience this bug as well. Turning VO on and of often works as CMD Tab 
does. But it doesn't work always. The last option I foundt is to duplicate the 
document to be able to navigate in te document. To me this is a very annoying 
bug because I use Textedit a lot.
All the best

Text Edit on after Mac sleeps

Hey all, I am finding when I use TextEdit and I step away for a minute, my Mac 
may go to the LockScreen. When I come back and unlock it, VoiceOver will not 
read inside the text and a document. I need to turn VoiceOver off and on again. 
Does anyone know why this is happening? Anything I can do about it?

also, in the Text Edit info, it does say version 1.5 and last modified in  
February. I do not see it listed in the app store, but like Brad I would assume 
it would be updated with the OS.

Yes, I am awaiting the day you send me your new Mac Studio. A restart seems to 
have solved the problem. It’s odd, since I had just started up the machine this

Herbie,

Check the version of textedit.app in your applications folder. It should be 
version 5 or higher. If not, maybe download a new copy from the App Store.

Re: Problem with Text Edit on latest Monterey

I tried all the things you described, and I'm not experiencing any issues with 
TextEdit on 2021 14 inch MacBook Pro with M1 pro processor and 16 GB RAM, 
running macOS  Monterey 12.3.
Did not try anything with pages.

Perhaps it is an Intel thing.

Re: Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

Hi, 

Could it be a problem with the drive itself? What happens if you copy one of 
the files in question to the harddrive or another USB drive and try editing it 
from there?

Re: Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi,

Flash drives are notoriously unreliable.  I suggest that you copy the files 
from that drive to your Mac.  You can then likely make the changes you want to 
make.  If you wish to keep using that flash drive, then after copying them to 
your Mac, go into Disk Utility, select the flash drive, and erase it using the 
MacOS Extended (Journaled) scheme.  You can then copy the files back over and, 
as long as the drive is not damaged in any way, you should be good for now.

Later…

I just checked, and found it to be doing this on multiple documents.  I’m 
really confused as to how this could’ve happened, because I have no idea how to 
make changes to this, so I know for a fact that I haven’t touched any of the 
settings, and under the sharing and permissions section under the drive itself, 
I’m finding nothing useful in order to find out what got toggled on/off.

Re: Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread 'Robert Cole' via MacVisionaries
Check to see if this problem is only the one document, or the entire USB stick.
If the entire usb drive is protected, you have unknowingly hit the switch to 
enable protection.

Can't save changes to existing text edit document.

2021-12-03 Thread Jessica Moss
I’ve just updated an existing text edit document I’ve had on my USB drive for 
years, and had no problem saving changes to it in the past, and now all of a 
sudden am getting a strange message that I don’t have permission to make 
changes to the file.  I’ve gone into “get info” in finder, and under the 
sharing and permissions section, all it displays is “you can read and write” 
then the rest of the text is cut off and I can’t scroll any further.
  Has anyone else had this issue?

Re: Text edit

2020-10-21 Thread Herbie Allen
Maybe somebody will have a better idea, but the only way I can think of is to 
paste the text file into an RTF file. I looked into Save As, but all that does 
is allow you to choose various Text formats.

Re: How to set Font Size in Text Edit?

2019-11-12 Thread Barry Hadder
Another way that I just found is to make selected text smaller or larger with 
command-- or command-+ respectively.

I believe Tim was referring to the show font dialog with command-t.
So, there you have it.  You can forget about the mouse all together.

Donna,
Just to be sure, these are rtf or doc or docx files and not plain text ones?
Hope you are well.

Hi Donna,

I am able to do this if I rout the mouse to vo and either click the combobox or 
click a value in the list.
Did you rout the mouse to vo before you tried clicking with the track pad?

odd observation with Text Edit

2019-02-06 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay,

Some feedback would sure be appreciated.  Earlier today, I was filling out a 
three page application for Section 8 recertification which the local section 8 
office converted to .rtf for me before they sent it.  I noticed that, while I 
was going along answering the questions, as I got further down the form to the 
bottom of page 1, and all the rest of the way down, I could read the questions 
fine:  but, I could not focus the curser so I could type my answers in the 
correct places so as to preserve the formatting.  Every single time I needed to 
put an X by a check box for either yes or no, or needed to type specific 
information, I had to go in to the view menu and choose zoom in.  Even going 
full screen was no help.  IS there something I overlooked in the process of 
opening the form?  Some setting I should adjust for next time?  Thanks.


Sent from the first computer with built-in screen reader access for the blind:

Sincerely,

The constantly barefooted Ray

Re: obtaining document word count in either Pages or Text Edit?

2018-02-21 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Donna,

In Pages under the View menu, you have an option to show or hide word count.  
It has a shortcut key attached to it.  Have a look.

Best wishes

Re: Text Edit question

2017-04-12 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Ah, wonderful Emacs style commands. Control Q says quote the next
character. Generally, control-L in old emacs systems would re-paint the
screen with TextEdit that shouldn't be needed, so perhaps if it is defined
to do a re-paint then we can just drop that function and a control-L would
then work as a page break.

The other option would be to enable VI style keyboard in TextEdit and then
a long as you were in insert mode, control-L would insert your page break.

Hi,

David's solution still works: control+q followed by control+l.  Also, 
alternatively, you can go to edit/insert/page break and get it this way. The 
insert submenu under edit also has insert line  option.

Re: Text Edit question

2017-04-10 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

That sounds like a rather convoluted method.  I am a huge fan of keyboard 
shortcuts, but this one sounds more trouble than it's worth.  Alternatively, 
you can insert a page break by going up to the Edit menu, down to Insert, then 
choose Page Break from the sub-menu.  You could also create your own keyboard 
shortcut for this fairly easily.

1.  Go to System Preferences.
2.  Open the Keyboard pane.
3.  Select the Shortcuts tab.
4.  Interact with the table and navigate down to the Apps item.
5.  Stop interacting with the table and navigate right past the Application 
Shortcuts table to the Add button and press it.
6.  Choose TextEdit from the Applications pop-up menu.
7.  Enter "Page Break" exactly as quoted here in the menu item field.
8.  Choose a keyboard command for the shortcut.  I chose cmd-return since 
that's what I've used in other apps.
9.  Press OK or Add or whatever it is to confirm.
10.  Close System Preferences.

The shortcut is now ready to be used.

Later...

RE: Text Edit question

2017-04-10 Thread daj.griffith
I had to look this up myself once and this is what I found on Google.

To insert a page break, choose Format > "Wrap to page" (or press 
Command-Shift-W) so the break is visible. Position the cursor where you want to 
place
the page break. Press Control-Q, then press Control-L. To remove the page 
break, press Delete.

This is a little weird as it uses the control rather than the command key but 
it certainly used to work for me. I have not tried it recently though.

to work in Text edit.  Many thanks.

Re: Text edit very sluggish when opening and saving documents

Hi!
Can it be the fact that it saves the files to Icloud Drive.
Not sure though why this should slow down things but just a thought.

Re: Text edit very sluggish when opening and saving documents

2017-03-22 Thread Phil Halton
I also have a sluggishness problem in TextEdit save dialogue, and my solution 
has been to turn voiceover off and then back on again. This seems to bring 
everything back right. I am running Sierra on a MacBook air with eight gig ram. 
Although I don't think the ram or even the model of computer is an issue.

Hi,
What model of Mac do you have? I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro and ever since I 
have updated to Sierra I find everything to be very sluggish and get busy 
messages in most apps. The only solution I have been able to come up with or

I would also be very interested to hear if anyone else on this list as any 
other suggestions or solutions.

Text edit very sluggish when opening and saving documents

Since I have upgraded to see Aira, I have noticed that text edit is very 
sluggish when opening and saving documents. It takes for ever to arrow through 
the dialog box. In fact I am writing this email why I am waiting on it to catch 
up. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is about to drive me crazy since I 
use it quite a bit.
Thanks in advance

Saving Files in Text Edit

2017-03-14 Thread Kat DeNicola
There is probably a simple answer to this that I knew at one time, but my 
brain is fried, and I need to work with someone on it tomorrow. So... When 
you save a file in text edit, how do you find the specific folder where you 
want to save it instead of the folders it suggests in the popup area? I 
know there's a sidebar, but I'm not seeing how changing the selection in 
one affects the other. I usually just save the file in the folder it 
defaults to and then move the file later, but I think my client would 
rather avoid that extra step if she can.
Thanks for any help.

Re: fonts in text edit and sharing documents with iPhone

2016-12-15 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

In TextEdit, select all the text in your document, press cmd-t to bring up the 
Font dialog, then navigate to the size field and enter 12, or whatever size you 
prefer.  Note that you may wish to change the font as well so that the document 
has the same font throughout.  Size 12 in Aerial is different looking than size 
12 in Times.  Also note that only attributes that are changed will affect 
what's selected.  So, if you don't change the size number, then none of the 
font sizes will be changed.

One other note, as David has mentioned, it's Google Drive that you're likely 
wanting, not Google Docs.  Google Drive allows you to use whatever document 
type you wish, whereas a Google Doc is a specific document type itself.  It is 
a web-based document only editable within a browser.

HTH.

Later...

One additional note to add to the already good suggestions. If you don't
want to upgrade to a MacOS that supports continuity and/or handoff, or at
your hardware doesn't support that. Then you could get wi-Fi sharing on
your iPhone so that the computer could use your cellular connection to
reach the Internet. Depending on your carrier, this might cost money.

Re: fonts in text edit and sharing documents with iPhone

2016-12-14 Thread Larry Thacker Jr.
Those commands adjust the size respective to the existing size, so everything 
would stay proportionally the same, just smaller or larger.  To make it all 
uniform you will want to open the font 
dialog with Command-T.  Or at least that’s a way I know that would do it.  
However it will also probably set everything to the same font and style and you 
would then need to go and re-apply anything like headings, bold, italics, etc. 
that you actually wanted.  I assume in Pages there’s probably a way to get at 
just the size and make it uniform, but I ended up bringing Word with me to the 
Mac and haven’t really gotten comfortable in Pages or Text Edit for that matter.

If using Pages, and using iCloud, and both devices are using the same iCloud 
account, and Pages is backing up to iCloud, open pages on the iOS device and 
Pages will be able to access the file.

I also do the same using Google Docs with Google Drive.

fonts in text edit and sharing documents with iPhone

2016-12-13 Thread Gabe Griffith
Hi all,
I work on a weekly news letter that contains content that comes to me from many 
different sources. As a result it apparently also comes in many different font 
sizes and I would like to try to make the font size uniform. This was not 
pointed out to me until recently and of course as a VO user I haven't ever 
really paid attention to that. 

OK, so now here is my problem. I have found the command in text edit to change 
font size by pressing command with either dash or plus. I assumed that if I did 
a command a to select all then either of these commands it would change the 
font for the entire document to what I wanted it to be. Apparently it isn't 
doing that. Does anyone know why or what I need to do differently?

Now the next dilemma I am facing is that when I have to send this out to a 
couple of different email lists I am not always necessarily with my computer 
and internet access. So, what is the best method any of you have found for 
sharing a document from the mac to an iPhone so that I could copy all the text 
from the document and paste it in to the body of an email? I have tried dropbox 
and don't appear to be able to select the text from the document.

I am using OS 10.9.5 maverics on a late 2011 macbook pro and an iPhone 7 
running iOS 10.2.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Gabe

Re: Finding special characters in Text Edit

2016-11-26 Thread Larry Thacker Jr.
Thanks.  I’m hoping this is a temporary problem.  I’m doing some file 
manipulation to get around bugs in a beta version of a program that hopefully 
will soon be fixed.  Mostly asking to get a feel of how folks that have been 
using the Mac a lot longer than I have would deal with it.  Based on tricks 
I’ve seen in a Windows editor I use, your script just prompted me to do a 
little digging.  There is limited capability built in, but it requires you to 
perform an action that is apparently inaccessible with Voiceover.  I could not 
do this without looking.  It’s an old article.

TextEdit’s search feature (tap Cmd+F) appears not to let you search for tabs or 
paragraph breaks.
There is a way. Click the magnifying glass to the left of the search field, 
then click Insert Pattern. This will cause a small menu to appear on which you 
can select from a range of invisibles.
The Insert Pattern menu also lets you insert wildcards, which are symbols that 
stand-in for any letter, word or number.
To close the search field, just tap Esc when the cursor is within it.

Also, if this is something you are regularly doing then creating a sed or perl 
or python script might be worthwhile.

The line 
s/\t/   /
will find all tabs and replace them with 8 spaces. There are "tidy" programs 
that are often used for learning up program source code that are just more 
complicated versions of the above.


Best wishes,

2016-11-26 Thread Phil Halton
I'm pretty sure that option T will insert the tab character, and most likely 
option return or perhaps shift return or some combination thereof will insert 
the line separator character. I know you can get linefeed with option return.

Finding special characters in Text Edit

2016-11-26 Thread Larry Thacker Jr.
I need to be able to find formatting characters in a text document and change 
or remove them.  I’ve found that I can copy them to the clipboard and then 
paste them into the search and replace fields, but I wonder if there’s a better 
way.  For example, I frequently want to change something Voiceover is calling 
“line separator” into “new line.”  I think I will also have a need later today 
to change tab characters into spaces.  Is there a way to enter these things 
into the search fields without having to first find one in the document and 
then paste it in?

Hi Anne,

That switch makes sense.  On the occasions when I did use those commands, I 
remember that the results seemed unpredictable, and that sometimes nothing 
would happen at all.  This probably explains that.

Hello Donna,

The commands you’re thinking about are Go to first or last visible item and Go 
to First or Last Item. These were switched round in El Capitan. To me, this 
makes sense for a VO user who normally doesn’t care what’s visible or not. So 
now, VO-Home goes to first item and not first visible item.
I use VO-Home and VO-End a lot to save time.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Moving by page in Text Edit/Pages/etc?

2016-08-26 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Alex,

Wrap to Page does indeed show what the document would look like if printed, and 
allows VO users to find the page breaks.

Cheers,

Anne

In TextEdit, you need to adjust the window to the page for VO-Page

In Pages and in TextEdit, you have to be interacting with the text

The Page Down key only has a visual effect, so it’s actually
useless for us.

The VO-Page Down command works for me in both Pages and TextEdit,

Re: Moving by page in Text Edit/Pages/etc?

Thanks. Interacting was one step I was missing, as I never interact with text 
unless I need vo-a to track my position. I also never knew what wrap to 
page/window in Text Edit do. Are they visual changes only, or is there 
something they do that is helpful to VO users aside from allowing page-level 
movements? For instance, does 'wrap to page' show what your document would look 
like, and where page breaks would be, when printed out on paper?

Re: Moving by page in Text Edit/Pages/etc?

Hello Donna,

The Page Down command is VO-Page Down, on a laptop, this is VO-FN-Down Arrow. 
Not difficult at all.

Cheers,

Anne

Can someone refresh my memory about the VO page-Down command?  All I remember 
is that it is some impossible command that requires 27 fingers.

Re: Moving by page in Text Edit/Pages/etc?

2016-08-25 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Alex,

In TextEdit, you need to adjust the window to the page for VO-Page Down to 
work. The command to change this is Cmd-Shift-w.

In Pages and in TextEdit, you have to be interacting with the text area for the 
Page Down command to work.

The Page Down key only has a visual effect, so it’s actually useless for us.

The VO-Page Down command works for me in both Pages and TextEdit, but not in 
Preview.

Cheers,

Anne

Moving by page in Text Edit/Pages/etc?

2016-08-25 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
I'm not normally in need of a way to move by page, but I find myself suddenly 
trying to figure it out now. VO's help reports that the command is vo-pageDown, 
but that doesn't seem to do anything. I'm also wondering if there's a macOS 
way, much like vo-right moves by word but you should use option-right instead. 
I'm aware of how to make the page up/down keys on the Mac, I just don't know 
what to pair them with to get them to actually move the cursor by page. Thanks 
in advance.
