Re: Audio Hijack Questions

2015-01-21 Thread Jonathan Mosen

It's completely rewritten, and there is one minor focus issue when adding the 
first block to the grid if you are creating a session from scratch, but other 
than that, they have done a fantastic job with accessibility.

 Hi all,
 Today, a major (paid) update was released for Audio Hijack Pro, version 3. 
 This version makes constructing recording flows far easier, among other 
 usability improvements… At least according to the review I read. I don't own 
 the app, but I've heard a lot about it. Now that Soundflower isn't working 
 on Yosemite, and hasn't been updated in a couple years, it might be time for 
 me to look into Audio Hijack again. Before I plunk down any money, though, I 
 have a few questions for anyone who uses this app.
 
 First, is this new version accessible? I know it's early days, but maybe 
 someone tested it, or just got it, or it's been a few days since I sent this 
 and now you know? It's worrisome to me that the new interface is so visual, 
 and I wonder if the developers included VoiceOver support.
 
 Second, how does it do with recording VoiceOver? That's the biggest use for 
 me: recording VoiceOver on the Mac as well as input from a microphone. If it 
 can't do that, it's not very useful for my situation.
 
 Third, is there a way to record line in on a Macbook Air, while monitoring 
 somehow? I'd like to record audio from my iPhone, but also speak into a 
 microphone. Perhaps there's a way to do this with Quicktime's new ability to 
 record iOS screencasts?
 
 Thank you for any information or ideas you might have.

Re: Using a BrailleNote Apex with an iPhone 4S

Thank you very much, Eileen.  Your latest missive arrived about five minutes 
after I got it to work.  As I indicated to Sarai, I now need to learn how to 
make the display work seamlessly with the iPhone while reading Kindle and iBook 
books. Actually, I am hoping that the BN also works in Voice Dream Reader as 
well.

Take care and kindest regards,

 Hi Mike,
 
 I'll try this again because I checked what you meant by my message being cut 
 off. 
 
 1. The iPhone needs to be off totally: The sequence is to turn on the Apex 
 first, set it in terminal mode and make sure that bluetooth is turned on by 
 pressing the letter B. 
 2. Now, open the iPbone: Go to settings blucsooth and make sure it is also 
 turned on. 
 3. Swipe down (one finger swipe to the right) until you hear Apex. 
 4. Do a single double tap on the pair button. 
 Note: I change the typing mode to standard, so I can use a split double tapp 
 to quickly input the code and catch the pair button. The pair button is in 
 the right hand corner just under the battery percentage. 
 5. The code that Sarah gave you is correct of 4 zeros. 
 
 In using the above method, I usually can pair my Apex in 1-2 tries. Once the 
 Apex is paired, you will need to turn on the apex first, with the iPhone 
 turned off. Then turn on the phone. It may take a few seconds for the Apex 
 braille display to respond, but it will. HTH.

BT keyboard stops working on iMac

2015-01-21 Thread Donna Goodin

Hi all,

A few times a week, after my iMac has gone to sleep, when I go to get back on 
something weird happens with the keyboard.  Basically, everything except VO 
plus arrow keys and Cmd-Tab stops working.  I’ve tried turning VO on and off, 
I’ve tried turning quickNav on and off, but so far the only way to get out of 
this mode is to force the Mac to shut down and then reboot.  Anyone know what’s 
going on here?  And anyone know of an easier way to get my keyboard back?  This 
never happens on my MBA, so I’m wondering if it has something to do with the 
bluetooth keyboard?
Thanks,
Donna

Re: Keeping a journal, both on Mac and iPhone?

 Hi Everyone, 
 
 I only just saw this thread, so hopefully I don’t repeat too much of what’s 
 already been said. 
 
 Mac Journal has been a wonderful app for me. I have been using it for the 
 past four years with no issues. The iOS app used to be somewhat inaccessible, 
 but I tried it again over the weekend and it worked well for me. I performed 
 a sync with my mac and it went without a hitch. The first time you sync, you 
 need to enter a passcode which appears on the phone and is accessible with 
 VoiceOver. Enter this into the dialogue box that appears on the mac and 
 everything will sync automatically. 
 
 The iOS app supports multiple journals and, so far, has been very easy for me 
 to edit in with VoiceOver. I can highly recommend both apps.

 Thank you both for your input.
 
 I can forego nested journals, so it looks like probably the best 
 approach will be to try MacJournal.  
 
 Using notes for journaling has been a real pain, hence my desire to find 
 something better.
 
 Here in Europe, it is easy (or so I have been told) to get refunds on

 The little bit of experience is so far promising. I have not used the

 set everything up in order to sync across devices. I think you can 
 choose to sync via drop box or through macJournal but I do not know 
 how to do either and do not know if the iPhone version is accessible. 
  I believe the macJournal for Mac has a downloadable trial for free 
 on the website not through the app store.
 
 Also, I know you can create multiple Journals but I don’t know about 
 nested journals. I don’t know what that is and how in the world you

Re: Changing iTunes location

2015-01-21 Thread Tim Kilburn

Hi,

Similar to Jonathan’s reply, what I’ve done is move the entire iTunes folder 
from your Home directory to the other location.  So, cmd-c the 
/Users/My_Username/Music/iTunes folder and cmd-option-v it to whereever you 
wish to put it, such as an external HD with more space.  Now, when you go to 
open iTunes, it will say that it can’t find the iTunes Library at which time 
you locate the copied iTunes folder from the dialog and click Choose.  This 
will automatically fix everything and life will be good.  The only concern, is 
that you must have the external source turned on when starting iTunes, 
otherwise, it will bring up this dialog again.

HTH.

Re: Using a BrailleNote Apex with an iPhone 4S

Hi. Powering down the iPhone and doing a hardware reset on the Apex was the 
ticket.  Thank you very much for your input.

Do you know where I can find a list of BrailleNote keyboard commands to invoke 
the VO commands from the BN qwerty keyboard.

At least, is there a command that can be invoked so that while reading a Kindle 
or iBook, using the advance bar will scroll the display through what is being 
read?

Again,you were very helpful.  Thanks!

 double tap in the 4 zeros. I'm  usually successful on the first or second 
 attempt. 
 
 You may need to go to the accessibility menu in general through settings 
 to amke all necessary setting changes for braille input and output. Once 
 the Apex is pair, the order of having the apex paired with phone is turn 
 on the Apex first to turn on the Apex and place it in terminal mode and 
 then the phone. HTH.

Re: Using a BrailleNote Apex with an iPhone 4S

2015-01-21 Thread Eileen Misrahi

Hi Mike,

I'll try this again because I checked what you meant by my message being cut 
off. 

1. The iPhone needs to be off totally: The sequence is to turn on the Apex 
first, set it in terminal mode and make sure that bluetooth is turned on by 
pressing the letter B. 
2. Now, open the iPbone: Go to settings blucsooth and make sure it is also 
turned on. 
3. Swipe down (one finger swipe to the right) until you hear Apex. 
4. Do a single double tap on the pair button. 
Note: I change the typing mode to standard, so I can use a split double tapp to 
quickly input the code and catch the pair button. The pair button is in the 
right hand corner just under the battery percentage. 
5. The code that Sarah gave you is correct of 4 zeros. 

In using the above method, I usually can pair my Apex in 1-2 tries. Once the 
Apex is paired, you will need to turn on the apex first, with the iPhone turned 
off. Then turn on the phone. It may take a few seconds for the Apex braille 
display to respond, but it will. HTH.

Bast,
Eileen

 Hi Sarai,
 
 Your suggestion did not work for me.  When I typed , I was unable to pair

 further.  After a pause of about ten seconds or so, the iPhone said: 
 “Connection unsuccessful. Could not load driver for APEX001890”
 
 Any other thoughts?  I guess that I can always power down my iPhone and do a 
 hardware reset on my BrailleNote.  However, I’m really not sure what is going

Re: Audio Hijack Questions

2015-01-21 Thread Anders Holmberg

Hi!
Last time i mailed them they were aware of some accessibility issues.
So i guess and hope its accessible.
/A
 20 jan 2015 kl. 19:18 skrev Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com:
 
 Hi all,
 Today, a major (paid) update was released for Audio Hijack Pro, version 3. 
 This version makes constructing recording flows far easier, among other 
 usability improvements… At least according to the review I read. I don't own 
 the app, but I've heard a lot about it. Now that Soundflower isn't working on 
 Yosemite, and hasn't been updated in a couple years, it might be time for me 
 to look into Audio Hijack again. Before I plunk down any money, though, I 
 have a few questions for anyone who uses this app.
 
 First, is this new version accessible? I know it's early days, but maybe 
 someone tested it, or just got it, or it's been a few days since I sent this 
 and now you know? It's worrisome to me that the new interface is so visual, 
 and I wonder if the developers included VoiceOver support.
 
 Second, how does it do with recording VoiceOver? That's the biggest use for 
 me: recording VoiceOver on the Mac as well as input from a microphone. If it 
 can't do that, it's not very useful for my situation.
 
 Third, is there a way to record line in on a Macbook Air, while monitoring 
 somehow? I'd like to record audio from my iPhone, but also speak into a 
 microphone. Perhaps there's a way to do this with Quicktime's new ability to 
 record iOS screencasts?
 
 Thank you for any information or ideas you might have.

Re: Using a BrailleNote Apex with an iPhone 4S

Yes, restart your phone. Whenever you see that could not load driver message, 
that's the thing that seems to help. Your report is very odd, since  has 
always been the pin for doing this (I don't doubt you, I just can't figure out 
why that would happen). You might want to go to Settings  Bluetooth, find the 
Apex, tap More Info, and tap Forget Device. After that, go back to VoiceOver's 
braille settings and try the pairing again.

Re: Changing iTunes location

2015-01-21 Thread Jonathan C. Cohn

You need to start iTunes while holding down the option key. I believe you can 
use commandoption-downArrow todo this, but I am not positive right now. Both 
iTunes and iPhoto will prompt you for a library location when double clicking 
the mouse while holding down the option key. I expect if you completely remove 
your iTunes library folder it will also prompt you for the location of the 
library. 

Are there the ability to do this from the dock contextual menu also?

 There is no way of creating a new style. Neither from the first menu at the

 I’ve reported this to Apple.

Re: Keeping a journal, both on Mac and iPhone?

What about making a second journal just as a text? That way, you can play with 
syncing. If you ever see it on sale, please let me know!

 Sarai,
 
 If you are truly interested in a powerful journaling app than I personally 
 believe the price could be worth it if Journaling is important. Get on their 
 mailing lists and they often have specials on their products but you might 
 have to be patient. They especially have the specials for certain holidays or 
 events. I got both macJournal for iPhone and Mac for half off. The price was 
 worth it to me for the plans I have. :) Fingers crossed on the syncing. That 
 is the part that boggles my mind and I am afraid to sync incorrectly and for 
 example have the most up to date version on my iPhone and then go to sync and 
 have it accidentally replace the older version with the newer version. I 
 believe there are two ways to sync. One is through drop box and the other is 
 through macJournal itself. I do not know if they have added iCloud drive 
 support. I do not think so but like I said, this really confuses me and I 
 can’t wrap my brain around it. Once I understand it, I will happily start 
 journaling. I really really want to understand this syncing so that I can 
 Journal when out and about on my iPhone. Often I want to make a quick Journal 
 on my iPhone to note an important moment before I forget. I just want to make 
 sure I understand how to sync first. :)

 Hi Everyone, 
 
 I only just saw this thread, so hopefully I don’t repeat too much of what’s 
 already been said. 
 
 Mac Journal has been a wonderful app for me. I have been using it for the 
 past four years with no issues. The iOS app used to be somewhat 
 inaccessible, but I tried it again over the weekend and it worked well for 
 me. I performed a sync with my mac and it went without a hitch. The first 
 time you sync, you need to enter a passcode which appears on the phone and 
 is accessible with VoiceOver. Enter this into the dialogue box that appears 
 on the mac and everything will sync automatically. 
 
 The iOS app supports multiple journals and, so far, has been very easy for 
 me to edit in with VoiceOver. I can highly recommend both apps. 
 
 Cheers,
 Chantelle

 I can forego nested journals, so it looks like probably the best

 Here in Europe, it is easy (or so I have been told) to get refunds on

 1. The iPhone needs to be off totally: The sequence is to turn on the Apex

 pressing the letter B. 
 2. Now, open the iPbone: Go to settings blucsooth and make sure it is also

 3. Swipe down (one finger swipe to the right) until you hear Apex. 
 4. Do a single double tap on the pair button. 
 Note: I change the typing mode to standard, so I can use a split double tapp 
 to quickly input the code and catch the pair button. The pair button is in 
 the right hand corner just under the battery percentage. 
 5. The code that Sarah gave you is correct of 4 zeros. 
 
 In using the above method, I usually can pair my Apex in 1-2 tries. Once the 
 Apex is paired, you will need to turn on the apex first, with the iPhone 
 turned off. Then turn on the phone. It may take a few seconds for the Apex 
 braille display to respond, but it will. HTH.

Re: Any disadvantages with file volt?

2015-01-21 Thread Grant Hardy

I’m a proponent of using FileVault. Depending on what model of Mac you have,
when you turn on the machine you can press CMD+F5 to either hear a series of
beeps or spoken announcements indicating where you are (e.g. one beep to
indicate that you’re being asked for your username, two beeps to confirm that
the username was entered correctly and you’re now being asked for the password,
and three beeps to indicate that all the information was entered correctly and
the machine is now booting up). This is all explained when you’re setting up
FileVault with VoiceOver enabled. Of course, you can login without pressing
CMD+F5 if you’ve memorized what to do and don’t need audible feedback.

FileVault makes your machine much more secure and in my opinion doesn’t impact
the user experience at all. FileVault prevents any unauthorized person from
getting at your data without the correct password or recovery key. Another
benefit of encryption comes in when you choose to give away or sell your
machine. Without encryption turned on, if you don’t want the machine’s new
owner to be able to recover your data, then you need to erase your drive by
writing data to every part of the drive. This can take many hours, and might
not even be effective with flash storage. With encryption, this shouldn’t be
necessary. Chances are you’re already using a device that is using data
encryption. For example, iOS devices encrypt a lot of your important data by
default.

Information overload: By default, you’ll log in with your normal username and
password and you’ll get a recovery key that can be used if you don’t have the
password. You can also grant other user accounts the right to authenticate when
the machine is powered on. Once the machine has been turned on and unlocked,
any user can log in and out normally. The functionality of the Guest account,
however, will be impacted; guests can only access a special secure mode where
they can only access Safari. It’s sort of like starting up from the recovery
partition of your Mac. You can store the recovery key with Apple as well as
storing it yourself. If you’re feeling very adventurous, you can use the
fdesetup command in the terminal
(https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man8/fdesetup.8.html)
to configure many more parameters, including changing/deleting/validating the
personal recovery key. Be sure to only do this if you know what you’re doing
and have good backups. It’s not necessary for normal FileVault operation.

use the access site. Both with Audible and Amazon, I much prefer to use 
the main site. So I'm a little puzzled as to how one person could see a 
captcha while another doesn't. You do have to sign in with your username 
and password and you do have to enter the claim code. You even can get 
around reading a claim code by having people email your gift cards 
instead of sending them by snail mail or giving them to you when the 
person involved uses email. It's not that i'm doubting your statement 
that there was a captcha; I personally simply don't see any request for 
one and never have in my own experience. Maybe they have started doing it 
for some accounts and others will follow though that doesn't totally make 
sense to me either.


Secondly, some other form of security besides username and password in 
some instances is not, in my opinion, overkill. At least from what I know 
about passwords being stolen or hacked, i don't think it's overkill. We 
can argue about whether that other form should be captcha r not and we 
can argue about whether or not there should be an accessible alternative 
and what that alternative should be, but i don't really think we can 
argue that something in addition to username and password is overkill, at 
least in some situations.


It is true that Amazon does require captchas in some instances; I rarely 
run into this on Amazon but I think when you set up an account and 
perhaps when you change your password you might have to enter a captcha, 
but I'm not going to change mine just to test this out. There may be some 
other instances.

Fwd: (Case RA-107910) Creating a Setup with VoiceOver

 Begin forwarded message:

 Date: January 21, 2015 at 10:33:22 PM EST
 From: Rogue Amoeba audiohij...@rogueamoeba.com
 To: Alex mehg...@icloud.com
 Subject: Re: (Case RA-107910) Creating a Setup with VoiceOver

 Hi Alex,

 My name is Grant and I'm an engineer here at Rogue Amoeba. I'll try and 
 answer your questions point by point.

 1. How do I know where a block will go when I paste it into the grid? Are 
 there keystrokes to more easily move blocks around once pasted?

 Good question.  When pasting a block copied from the library, it’ll either 
 paste at position 1x, 1y, or alternatively, if a block in the audio grid is 
 already selected, it’ll paste on top of that block and the existing block 
 will then be bumped one position to the right.

 One important detail:  In the current build, a newly pasted block is not 
 selected as the VO target - making this more confusing than in should be. Use 
 cursor keys or VO navigation keys to jump back and forth after pasting and 
 it’ll be selected. We will fix this.

 In cases where you copy existing blocks from the audio grid, they remember 
 the position they were in when copied, and aim for that position again when 
 pasted. The exception again is that pasting one block when there is already 
 one selected block will paste at that selected block’s location, bumping the 
 existing block to the right.

 2. I know that blocks have popovers, but how do I access them? Perhaps I 
 just haven't yet used a block with one, but I see no way to do this, and 
 vo-shift-m (the control-click command in VoiceOver) does nothing.

 Some blocks don't have a popover, just controls on their face (VO interact 
 with the block to visit them). You can use VO-spacebar or just spacebar to 
 open popovers, escape or spacebar to close them. Some blocks have both a 
 popover and controls on their face.

 3. What exactly does the grid signify? I get that it is a visual layout of 
 the audio chain, but how do the numbers VoiceOver reports explain what is 
 where? That is, while audio flows from left to right (thus larger x values 
 are later in the chain), what is the y axis for? Why are numbers reported to 
 the hundredths place? It seems like whole numbers would be faster to listen 
 to and give just as much positional information. This is probably very 
 obvious to look at, but just hearing it, I can't see the logic.

 Very good question. I'll explain a few things as best I can and hopefully 
 it'll start to make sense to you. We'll be trying to turn this information 
 into a knowledge base article for VO users soon, so if you wish to provide 
 feedback on this explanation, please do!

 The block size corresponds to 1 unit of the grid.  So a block at 1x, 1y and 
 another at 2x, 1y are next to each other and as close together as they can be.

 The grid allows positioning blocks on quarter unit increments. Say for 
 example 1.25x 1.5y. Most users never see grid coordinates and wouldn't know 
 if their blocks are on whole numbers or not. VO users might prefer to put 
 blocks on whole number coordinate just to avoid hearing decimals all the 
 time, I know I did that during testing!

 You can navigate between blocks using just the arrow keys.  Left, right, up 
 and down will move the selection to the nearest block in that direction. You 
 can also use VO navigation between blocks, and when doing so you'll visit the 
 connections, so they are described to you.

 Blocks can be moved in 1 unit or quarter unit steps with Command-arrow and 
 Option-arrow keys.

 Connections are made automatically between blocks. Users don't control 
 connections manually, so moving blocks around is the key to creating the 
 connections you want. Since all audio flows from left to right, its helpful 
 to think of connections as being made from left to right. Connections will 
 head to the nearest block on the right, can span as many as 6 grid units and 
 can be made at angles less than 45 degrees from horizontal. Source blocks 
 (the Application, Input Device and System Audio blocks) don't accept audio 
 connections from their left, but all other blocks will allow connections to 
 and from them.

 So, the simplest audio graph is one source block and a recorder on its right, 
 next to each other.  If you want to listen to the audio as well, you need an 
 output device - add that to the right of the recorder and you are set.  
 Exploring the template sessions will give you some idea of what is possible, 
 you don't need many blocks to do many regular things.

 The Voice chat session is a bit more involved, because the application block 
 is set to split the two sides of the conversation onto the left and right 
 channels, then it records both channels while you only listen to one.

 At its most elaborate, the audio grid is designed to support multiple 
 sources, arranged above each other, each with effects and recorders to their 
 right. This connects up to create

 For a simple chain, I have just been dropping in reverse order and this seems 
 to work, e.g., drop headphones than recording block and than system audio for 
 example. This creates a simple chain to record and monitor the recording of 
 voice over. 
 
 How though do I create a more complex chain with multiple inputs etc. 
 Basically, I can drop whatever blocks I like in the grid but getting them to 
 go where I want is the problem since VO doesn’t seem to see the empty grid 
 positions.
 
 Thanks for any assistance.

 Hi all,
 Today, a major (paid) update was released for Audio Hijack Pro, version 3. 
 This version makes constructing recording flows far easier, among other 
 usability improvements… At least according to the review I read. I don't 
 own the app, but I've heard a lot about it. Now that Soundflower isn't 
 working on Yosemite, and hasn't been updated in a couple years, it might 
 be time for me to look into Audio Hijack again. Before I plunk down any 
 money, though, I have a few questions for anyone who uses this app.
 
 First, is this new version accessible? I know it's early days, but maybe 
 someone tested it, or just got it, or it's been a few days since I sent 
 this and now you know? It's worrisome to me that the new interface is so 
 visual, and I wonder if the developers included VoiceOver support.
 
 Second, how does it do with recording VoiceOver? That's the biggest use 
 for me: recording VoiceOver on the Mac as well as input from a microphone. 
 If it can't do that, it's not very useful for my situation.
 
 Third, is there a way to record line in on a Macbook Air, while monitoring 
 somehow? I'd like to record audio from my iPhone, but also speak into a 
 microphone. Perhaps there's a way to do this with Quicktime's new ability 
 to record iOS screencasts?
 
 Thank you for any information or ideas you might have.

How do you do this and not just record voiceover output? When I did it and 
tried to record a game as well, i only got VO output and not the game audio as 
well. Do I need to turn off vo for this to work?

Re: BT keyboard stops working on iMac

Hi. Try to disconnect and reconnect it. Or have you already tried that.

 Hi all,
 
 A few times a week, after my iMac has gone to sleep, when I go to get back on 
 something weird happens with the keyboard.  Basically, everything except VO 
 plus arrow keys and Cmd-Tab stops working.  I’ve tried turning VO on and off, 
 I’ve tried turning quickNav on and off, but so far the only way to get out of 
 this mode is to force the Mac to shut down and then reboot.  Anyone know 
 what’s going on here?  And anyone know of an easier way to get my keyboard 
 back?  This never happens on my MBA, so I’m wondering if it has something to 
 do with the bluetooth keyboard?
 Thanks,
 Donna

interesting behavior of MBA waking up with only the enter key

I have a password set on my mBA running latest build of Yosemite. If I let the

command tab to wake the computer up, I am not required to enter my password. 
Has anyone else experienced this?

Here's hoping it was somebody's piece of toast or bag of popcorn and not your

Be My Eyes: Information needed for potential sighted volunteer

Hi.

I have been using Be My Eyes for the past few days and, in general, I have been 
more than satisfied.  However, I have encountered several situations in which I 
had to wait ten minutes or so before I was able to speak with a sighted 
volunteer.

Some of my sighted friends would like to become Be My Eyes volunteers.  One 
person who signed up to be a sighted volunteer lamented that she had not 
received a single call.  She has an iPhone.  My question is from her.  She 
wants to know if Be My Eyes can run in the background or whether she has to 
have the program open.

Kindest regards to all,

Mike
