Hi All,
TextGrabber + Translator, the iOS OCR app made by ABBYY, is on sale for $1.99.
This is a substantial reduction from the regular price of $9.99 that went into
effect shortly after the version 3 revisions of two months ago, that both

Some people, myself included, prefer the Skim interface. Skim has long been
more compatible than Preview with a lot of types of PDF documents and quite a
lot of long-time Mac users just prefer to use that application.

The majority of changes in the 10.8.4 build everybody is using relate to

Hi Esther and all,
Just to add an observation re Text Grabber since the newer interface: TG is
now much more forgiving of slight skewing. So, for those who don't have a

way too.
This is definitely an app

I have tried these suggestions and can find the table with the collection

There is a splitter next to the table with your folders. Interact with
the splitter and try collapsing it. YOu might have some problems and get busy
signals with Safari, but eventually, you should then see the second table of

You have to add each person one at a time. You have to VO-space on each
contact and they are added. However, I am not certain if this is just for
audio and not for video.

oh thanks so much! it was the horizontal or vertical splitter that was causing

When you go to the bookmarks menu from the menubar, navigate down to,

Make sure in settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver that use compact voice
is still turned off. It should be by default but odd things do happen. For that

Well firstly I suspect if your on the wifi and you haven't changed any settings
from the default it will choose wifi as 1st preference.

There are apps that can identify your model of iOS device, and I think that
