mavericks folder attributes
Hi, under mavericks I can't seem to find a way to have windows open in a new window without closing all others. I prefer to work with lots of windows open and used to do so in mountain lion, but there doesn't seem to be a preference for this in mavericks.

Type2Phone and IOS 8.0.2
Hello, I have recently acquired an iPhone 5S which is now running IOS 8.0.2. I also have an iPhone 3GS running the latest IOS 6. On the 3GS I found it very handy to use type2Phone on my iMac to emulate a bluetooth keyboard for entering passwords and the like on the iPhone. With their mixtures of characters, numbers, cases and symbols these are rather tricky to enter using the iPhone virtual keyboard. to my dismay type2Phone does not work with the iPhone 5S. Pressing the cursor left and right keys moves between fields on the iPhone but typing letters or numbers does not do anything on the iPhone. I have keyboard and numpad and trackpad commanders turned on and quicknav turned off. I tried turning numpad commander off but that made no difference. Presumably these problems are related to the other posts on IOS 8 and bluetooth keyboard issues. Are there any workarounds to this problem? Many thanks.

Re: Type2Phone and IOS 8.0.2
Hi all My guess is since Type2Phone emulates a bluetooth keyboards the same bugs that affect physical bluetooth keyboards will also occur with emulations such as this app. Sent from my laptop On 28/09/2014 11:41, Paul Hopewell wrote: Hello, I have recently acquired an iPhone 5S which is now running IOS 8.0.2.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard on IOS 8 I Am Not Happy!
This is exactly what I have found on my iPad and my iPhone 5. I thought apple were supposedly improving things on the accessibility front. After updating to 8.2, as Martin said the caps lock is permently on, and, for some reason known only to apple, quick nav is also on by default when you start up the iPhone or iPad. with quick nav on, you can navigate left and right through the apps but V O space does nothing, nor, does enter. It is absolutely useless and not worth bothering with. Someone at apple has really messed up this time and I hope they put it right quickly. Trevor -Original Message- From: Martin G. McCormick Sent: Sunday, September 28, 2014 5:27 AM To: OS X iOS Accessibility Subject: Re: Bluetooth keyboard on IOS 8 I Am Not Happy! As one who works, at least for a few more months, in networking and computing, I think we should upgrade our operating system whenever possible to the current state of the art for one's own security if nothing else. The hackers and crackers out there have usually figured out how to break in to older systems and the script monkeys happily spread the mischief around. It used to be they did it for bragging rights or because they were angry at someone else but now it's even more important to stay current because organized crime is involved and some of these exploits even have the backing of governments. So, stupid me, I decided to go ahead and upgrade my iPad to IOS8 today. Big mistake! This is a copy of the message I sent to accessibil...@apple.com. I suspect it will have no effect whatsoever, but I sent it after much thought and some cooling down. Message follows: Subject: IOS8 is Almost Totally Inaccessible. I am a systems engineer with Oklahoma State University who specializes in unix system programming and who enjoys solving technical issues as well as building electronic and mechanical things. I also happen to be a computer user who is blind and have used accessibility features in Linux andApple's OSX and IOS platforms. When I bought my iPad a couple of years ago, it came with IOS6.x installed and I was happy with the way voiceover worked. I did also buy a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard which is almost indispensable when entering large amounts of text or passwords. The on-screen keyboard is not impossible for a person who is blind to use, but it is awkward. Frankly, I much prefer real keys to hunting and tapping any day. When IOS7 came out, I upgraded to that and the BT keyboard was a little more quirky than before, but I had no trouble using it. One just got used to the way it behaved and there were no real show stoppers. If anybody knows that complex systems do not always work has hoped, it is me so one expects the occasional glitch or bug when something new comes out but the following is beyond ridiculous. On September 27 of 2014, I upgraded to IOS8.0.2 and that was a huge mistake. The bluetooth keyboard now is completely useless except for two very specific conditions: 1. All the control functions such as Escape, F11 and F12 actually still work. 2. The letters and numbers will still work when inside an application such as within a text-edit field but they do nothing when trying to navigate the screen. The iPad does emit a sound when the keyboard is switched on and off so it is not loosing contact. The Caps-Lock key always reports that Caps lock is on each time it is pressed but the resulting characters sent to a text application do reflect the correct case so all the scan codes are obviously being received and translated correctly. I would love to have my iPad back. It's loaded with possibilities and I downloaded the upgrade in good faith that it would cause the system to work better and be more secure. I was wrong and I am not happy at this time. Sincerely, Martin McCormick WB5AGZ Stillwater, OK Systems Engineer OSU Information Technology Department Telecommunications Services Group End of quoted message. At this time, I don't have any apps on the iPad that are very important so I wasn't too worried and wasn't really watching out for things like bluetooth keyboards not working any longer as that support is part of the OS and should be something that gets caught very early. It should be kind of like shipping ten-thousand washing machines without their power cords or drive motors. I have had a Linux upgrade go really badly, once, but that was totally my fault and hey, it's free anyway and I had backups of all the important stuff. One kind of expects better out of a multi-million-dollar corporation but I am not sure real adults are in charge of much of anything any more. Oh well, I am just blowing off steam now.

Arranging home page on IOS 8
Hello, I am having a very frustrating time trying to move all my Apps on my iPhone 5S into sensible folders on home page 1. . I currently have folders on 4 columns and 4 rows on page 1. Now there are App Icons on page 2 which I want to move into the appropriate folder on page 1. When I move an App from page 2 onto page 1 it seems to go into row 5 on page 1. If I then press the home key and go to page 1 and double tap and hold any Icon on row 5 I do not get the ability to move that Icon into any of the folders on page 1. In fact I do not get the ability to move Icons on row 5 of page 1 at all. Any ideas? Many Thanks.

Re: Arranging home page on IOS 8
Hello Paul. Here is what I do. I first take 2 apps i want in a folder and put them on the first blank page. This makes it easier to overlap them to create folders. if i already have a folder i move that and an app i want in it to the blank page.

Re: mavericks folder attributes
I also find this intensely annoying but I am not sure that there is anything we can do about it. It was suggested to me that I turn off the tabbed open in tabs feature of Finder and also hide the sidebar. I have done both but it has failed to do anything so if I am working across multiple windows it is , as you say highly inefficient as you have to tediously keep on locating and reopening these windows.

Hello Ian David, I’m not sure if I’m understanding you correctly, so please excuse if this reply is off target.

McCormick Sent: Sunday, September 28, 2014 5:27 AM To: OS X iOS Accessibility Subject: Re: Bluetooth keyboard on IOS 8 I Am Not Happy! As one who works, at least for a few more months, in networking and computing, I think we should upgrade our operating system whenever possible to the current state of the art for one's own security if nothing else. The hackers and crackers out there have usually figured out how to break in to older systems and the script monkeys happily spread the mischief around. It used to be they did it for bragging rights or because they were angry at someone else but now it's even more important to stay current because organized crime is involved and some of these exploits even have the backing of governments. So, stupid me, I decided to go ahead and upgrade my iPad to IOS8 today. Big mistake! This is a copy of the message I sent to accessibil...@apple.com. I suspect it will have no effect whatsoever, but I sent it after much thought and some cooling down. Message follows: Subject: IOS8 is Almost Totally Inaccessible. I am a systems engineer with Oklahoma State University who specializes in unix system programming and who enjoys solving technical issues as well as building electronic and mechanical things. I also happen to be a computer user who is blind and have used accessibility features in Linux andApple's OSX and IOS platforms. When I bought my iPad a couple of years ago, it came with IOS6.x installed and I was happy with the way voiceover worked. I did also buy a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard which is almost indispensable when entering large amounts of text or passwords. The on-screen keyboard is not impossible for a person who is blind to use, but it is awkward. Frankly, I much prefer real keys to hunting and tapping any day. When IOS7 came out, I upgraded to that and the BT keyboard was a little more quirky than before, but I had no trouble using it. One just got used to the way it behaved and there were no real show stoppers. If anybody knows that complex systems do not always work has hoped, it is me so one expects the occasional glitch or bug when something new comes out but the following is beyond ridiculous. On September 27 of 2014, I upgraded to IOS8.0.2 and that was a huge mistake. The bluetooth keyboard now is completely useless except for two very specific conditions: 1. All the control functions such as Escape, F11 and F12 actually still work. 2. The letters and numbers will still work when inside an application such as within a text-edit field but they do nothing when trying to navigate the screen. The iPad does emit a sound when the keyboard is switched on and off so it is not loosing contact. The Caps-Lock key always reports that Caps lock is on each time it is pressed but the resulting characters sent to a text application do reflect the correct case so all the scan codes are obviously being received and translated correctly. I would love to have my iPad back. It's loaded with possibilities and I downloaded the upgrade in good faith that it would cause the system to work better and be more secure. I was wrong and I am not happy at this time. Sincerely, Martin McCormick WB5AGZ Stillwater, OK Systems Engineer OSU Information Technology Department Telecommunications Services Group End of quoted message. At this time, I don't have any apps on the iPad that are very important so I wasn't too worried and wasn't really watching out for things like bluetooth keyboards not working any longer as that support is part of the OS and should be something that gets caught very early. It should be kind of like shipping ten-thousand washing machines without their power cords or drive motors. I have had a Linux upgrade go really badly, once, but that was totally my fault and hey, it's free anyway and I had backups of all the important stuff. One kind of expects better out of a multi-million-dollar corporation but I am not sure real adults are in charge of much of anything any more. Oh well, I am just blowing off steam now.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard on IOS 8 I Am Not Happy! A fix
I got my iPad Back. Am I sorry about all those nasty things I said about Apple? Not in the least because this is big business at it's worst. Okay. Enough whining and griping from me. Here is the fix. It was aimed at iPhone users, but it does work on the iPad just fine. As in most software bugs, things aren't what they appear to be. The Caps-lock works correctly but the reporting of it's status is what is broken. I will condense what little I have learned so far. From:Sarah k Alawami marri...@gmail.com She reported that turning quicknav on helps. You do that by pressing the Left-arrow and Right-arrow keys simultaneously. The system reports that quicknav is on. This gives you your arrows back but I would call this teaser mode because you can't yet click on/select any of the fields that are tantalizingly now reported as you arrow back and forth. Also, another bug in IOS8 is that voiceover crashes when one is using the arrow keys plus probably a few other things. The system goes silent briefly and you here Voiceover on and find that you are now back at the start of the list of available links to arrow through. This is annoying but if you arrow through things a little more slowly, it seems to crash less often. Time to go down another rabbit hole. One of the google searches I did turned up the following set of instructions on applevis. Follow these carefully. The following words are not mine but lifted from the email being referenced. Quoting: AppleVis If your Bluetooth keyboard doesn't work with VoiceOver except just a few functions in iOS 8.0, try the following steps to resolve the issue. Once the problem disappears, it doesn't appear again unless you change the iPhone language in Settings, General, Language Region. To make the problem disappear from your iPhone, follow these steps: 1. If you use just one software keyboard, temporarily add an arbitrary one in Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards, Add New Keyboard. 2. Open the Notes app. 3. Create a new note. 4. Press the left arrow key and the right arrow key simultaneously to turn off the quick navigation option. 5. Hold down the command key and press the space key several times to cycle through the list of software keyboards. 6. Press the left arrow key and the right arrow key simultaneously to turn on the quick navigation option. 7. Now your Bluetooth keyboard should work fine except other iOS bugs. 8. You may delete the software keyboard temporarily added at Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards. This is a copy of the email sent to RiVO customers to resolve the issue (http://goo.gl/GiBvWy) since it should also resolve the problem for other Bluetooth keyboards as well. End of quote This is Martin speaking now. After activating notes from the touch screen, I selected compose and did as the instructions said. I had selected a Spanish keyboard as the software keyboard so I typed Command+Space and heard Espaniole then English and then Espaniole again as there were now two software keyboards. I left it on English. You then just get out of notes and the BT KB now works as well as it did in IOS6. The IOS8 accessibility stack was simply not ready for prime time. While I do not have any inside knowledge of how the OS works, it appears that various parts of the system are not speaking to each other during installation and setup. If your are using an English or Russian or Chinese locale, all important modules such as the keyboard translator should understand which character sets to use without the end user having to essentially initialize them. In unix, we call this the environment and make use of environmental variables and it generally works beautifully. IOS is not unix but the concept is an old and tested one. We are using XYZ language so everything that deals with text and fonts knows this and behaves accordingly unless specifically told otherwise. I hope this helps somebody. Knowledge is worth a lot more when it is concentrated in one place. Treasure hunts are fun and challenging but sometimes, we just want stuff to work.

Re: Abbyy fine reader pro help please
Hi Bryan, Again, this information is most helpful. Will certainly move quickly to get this software…. Sincerely, Leo On Sep 27, 2014, at 9:56 PM, Bryan Jones openses...@me.com wrote: Here is the workflow I generally follow when using ABBYY FineReader Pro on my Mac in combination with a WiFi connected scanner to scan, import, OCR and export single- or multipage documents. These instructions were written based on FineReader Pro version 12.0.6, MacOS 10.9.5, a 2013 Macbook Air, and a Canon Pixma MX922 MFP. These instructions assume the User has a working knowledge of VoiceOver and a compatible and functioning scanner connected wired or wirelessly to a mac with the proper scanner drivers and the latest version of FineReader Pro installed. 1. Load the paper document(s) into the scanner. 2. Launch FineReader Pro. 3. If FineReader does not automatically open to a “New Task” dialog, press Command+N to open the New Task dialog. The New Task dialog Is laid out roughly in the form of a table and is relatively intuitive, but there are a few confusingly labeled items, so I will include some additional notes at the end of these instructions. 4. In the New Task dialog, highlight your scanner in the Sources table, make sure the correct Document Language(s) are selected, and then press VO+Spacebar on the desired export format. This will open a new window where you can specify various scan options specific to your scanner. I assume these options will vary depending on the make, model features of the selected scanner. On my system I have options such as flat-bed or ADF, duplex mode, scan area, color depth, resolution and detect orientation. 5. After you have selected the desired scan settings, navigate to the button labeled “Scan” and press VO+Spacebar to activate it. Your scanner should begin scanning. I’m not sure if there is an official VO-accessible way to monitor scan progress, but I normally either listen to the scanner or monitor the Scan button, whose name will toggle between “Scan” and “Stop Scanning” depending on scan status. 6. When all pages have been scanned, navigate to the button labeled “Finish import” and press VO+Spacebar to activate it. A dialog box will provide progress information as FineReader recognizes the text. 7. When the recognition process has completed, a standard OSX File Save As dialog opens where you will name the file, choose the location where you’d like it saved, and click the Export button to complete the process. A few notes regarding the “New Task” window. 1. I suggest spending a few minutes familiarizing oneself with the items in the New Task window by exploring with the VO+left and VO+right arrows. 2. There are two items in the New Task window that don’t seem to do anything: one spoken simply as “Label” and the other spoken simply as “Image.” 3. There is a mislabeled button spoken as either “Go right, unchecked” or “Go left, unchecked.” Pressing VO+Spacebar on this item will toggle it and will also toggle between the “Quick conversion” and “Conversion format” labels. As far as I can tell, all this does is switch the list of available export formats between the short list displayed in the “Quick COnversion” list, and the full list shown in the “COnversion Formats” list.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard on IOS 8 I Am Not Happy! A fix
You know, this is one thing (not just on this list, but everywhere) where folks get ribbed because they upgrade, then have issues. Yet, if anyone mentions that they're not running the latest release (such as I've done on a number of occasions) because of issues with that release, you get ribbed, because you're not upgrading and taking the issues, because they can and will be worked around. Honestly, I find it a bit irritating. I have learned to ignore it, mostly because I don't care about tech support, rarely call for it, and have no issue fixing my own hardware (most of the time), so for me, having 10 or even 20 year old equipment doesn't bother me in the least, but when I mention to someone that I have a computer running windows xp pro, that is 10 years old, or that I have an iphone 3gs, or 4s, or that I'm running osx 10.5 or 10.6, the response is nearly always, You need to upgrade That's all well and good if someone can afford to do so, and/ or if they want to do so, but some folks are perfectly happy with what they have, and don't want or need the latest and greatest, and perhaps have other equipment in addition to what's being discussed, yet, it seems to be antisocial, or anti technology, if someone doesn't want to upgrade for whatever reason. Could we please stop casting aspersions on the versions of hardware/software folks are using, and just offer help where possible, and keep quiet otherwise? Honestly, I don't care if someone is running 10.4 tiger, or 10.9 mavericks, if they have a problem, and I know how to fix it, then I'm always willing to assist, and the version of their hardware/software should have no bearing on that issue. Sure, sometimes, problems are fixed in later releases, and there's nothing wrong with pointing that out, but it really needs to be done in a friendly optional manner, not in a rude direct confrontation method, as I've seen all too often here and elsewhere. I'm not a moderator, and I have nothing to do with the running of any portion of the mac-access sites or anything else relating to the list or equipment running it, I'm simply a list user who has withdrawn, and participated less and less as time goes on, because frankly, the level of snobbery on this list has truly astounded me. I realize this isn't really a matter for me to raise directly on list, but sorry folks, it's just finally gotten on my nerves one too many times. Responses like the below do nothing to help, and often cause antagonism, which really isn't necessary. Can we please keep things civil, and stop with the sniping at folks who aren't running the versions others have? Please?

Re: an ssh question with osx and a remote server
Actually, you can use just about anything to perform your transfer, ftp, telnet, rsh, ssh, any thing that allows a connection between machines. Remember, unix oses are 1, process based, and 2, socket based. This means, you can tie commands together using the vertical (|) character, and you can chain as many commands as you need to accomplish a task. I've used tar to move entire drives from one place to another, simply by running tar on the source machine, then using rlogin (telnet isn't 8-bit clean) and running tar again on the target machine. It's all doable, and you need no special software or timing, a simple crontab entry will do the job for you if that's what you need. You could do something like this: tar -zc *.txt|ssh user@host 'tar -zx' and all the txt files would be compressed, and tared up into an archive, which would then be transferred over the pipe via ssh to the remote machine, where upon tar would run and untar and uncompress the txt files on the remote machine. With this example, you'd need to be at the keyboard to type in the password, but if you had proper key pairs setup, and you used the proper command line parameters, you could remove this requirement. hth.

I then want to do an scp from my home computer to my remote server at like 3 am this morning as I don't want to tie up my 8mbps up bandwidth whilst everyone is awake. This I don't know how to do. I red the manual on SCP but have no idea if what I want to do is possible. 1. do I need to log in to my remote server via ssh before I go to bed tonight then some how schedule the scp 2. if not how can I do this effectively as ncftp is no longer being developed and lftp is not installed on my remote server? --- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net --- To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages postedto the Mac-Access forum at the list's public Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/.
