Re: i love applescript
Hello: I am really interested in knowing a little more about Apple Script. I am a Mac user 2 years ago, but I have not developed any skills with it. Is there something where I can learn about Apple script, for what could we use it and how to deal with it? Thank you so much! SALUDOS, DANIELA R.T. MACNETICOS, APPLE Y ACCESIBILIDAD A TU ALCANCE.

Re: i love applescript
Hello, Applescript requires, at least at the beginning, quite some getting used to and is not for those who don't like puzzling things. If you really want to start figuring it out, there are plenty of beginner's guides via google search. Try applescript tutorial or applescript for beginners. The rewards for understanding the language, as it is after all a language, with dictionaries and grammar, is that you can basically do anything you want to do on your mac, save graphic stuff on certain applications but that's even perhaps conservative as you might be able to draw with expressive functions. The best use of applescript is as follows: Automating repetitive things Automating between applications Shortcut creation Creative text Bots and monitoring agents Speech recognition enhancements The list goes on. At this moment, i just found an applescript extension which allows you to assimilate any scientific math functions into an applescript. This might actually beat any scientific calculator as i can make it customized to my needs. Man, i really recommend anyone technically enclined to take a few months just figuring it out. It's great Best regards, Yuma On 6/03/2012, at 9:45 PM, Daniela Rubio mabuha...@gmail.com wrote: Hello: I am really interested in knowing a little more about Apple Script.

Re: Still trying to get Fusion running

tools for blind osx developers
Hello, Since friday , I have a developers-account for osx and I have installed osx 10.8 on a external disk to test with me macbook. The main reason why I do this is to debug some voiceover problems before the public release. I also hope that I can provide a list with faq's about voiceover in 10.8 when the os comes out for everyone. But, for the developers here, I have some questions: 1. what is the best and easiest way to report accessibility/ voiceover problems? Can I use accessibil...@apple.com? I found also 2 links but I haven't test this yet: https://bugreport.apple.com/ https://bugreport.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/RadarWeb.woa/wa/signIn 2. is there a mailing list for blind developers of Apple products? 3. Are there other projects where I can help so that 10.8 runs better with voiceover when it comes out? 4. Is there some other interesting or usefull info I should know? If you want, you can also mail privately. Kind regards, William Windels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: tools for blind osx developers
Hi, As a developer, for submitting voiceover's or other bugs, you should fill the fields at www.bugreport.apple.com. Consider also the fact that as you install the os in to an external hard disc, you may have some other problems because that disc could be slower then the computer's internal hard disc. irid domnori irid.domn...@gmail.com contatto skype: superirid Il giorno 06/mar/2012, alle ore 13:55, William Windels ha scritto: Hello, Since friday , I have a developers-account for osx and I have installed osx 10.8 on a external disk to test with me macbook.

My thanks to those at CSUN and on MacVisionaries and VIPhone!…
Hello All! I'd just like to take a minute to say thank you and acknowledge those listers whom took time and said hello at CSUN. I saw a whole lot of support for both these lists there, not only from listers themselves, but from venders / speakers as well. So to MacVisionaries and VIPhone members, know that we are known. :) You're being heard and know that what you say matters. To those I had the pleasure of meeting, thank you! -And I wish we could have spent more time chatting and getting to know one another. To those on these lists I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet, be afraid, be very afraid!… ;) lol! just kidding of course… :) To those here, I haven't met yet, I look forward to more of your posts and interactions here. -Not only with me, but among yourselves as well. I always say that you are what makes these groups as successful as they are and I truly mean it! Without you we wouldn't have a community. So please continue to contribute your intelligence, your wit, and your kind assistance and respect to each other. when you do this, these qualities are what these communities become and reflect. So thank you All! Have a terrific day / evening, wherever you may be!… Smiles, Cara :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: My thanks to those at CSUN and on MacVisionaries and VIPhone!…
Hi David and all; The subscription process is the way it is because it prevents bots / spammers, or at least does a pretty good job. :) Yes, it is a bit slow, and for that I apologize. -As I said though, the benefits for filtering out spam are quite good. On the subject of Skype / Google Hang-Outs, that sounds like a great idea, and listers are, of course, really encouraged to connect up off the list if they so choose. So the two options you mention might work really well for people. Anyway, thanks for your note and keep enjoying the group! Smiles, Cara :) On Mar 6, 2012, at 6:11 AM, David Hole wrote: Hi.

Re: changing interface language of the mac with lion
Hi. I assume you have Lion, so the following steps should change the language: 1: Open the language and text settings in System preferences 2: Navigate to the language table and interact 3: Find the dutch language with your VO cursor and not just by pressing the arrow keys 4: Press VO comma to start the drag and drop feature in VOiceover and wait a few seconds until VOiceover says the process has finnished 5: Move the VO cursor up to the very top of the table and press VO period to place the dutch language at the top of the table. Now the dutch language should be at the top of the table. Restart your computer and the whole system should be back to dutch again.

Re: Is the I phone 4s worth it?
Hello, and consider the upgrade operation is painless. I mean: you can transfer your life from the 3gs to the 4S in a completely painless way, the only condition is you constantly back your iPhone up, both via iTunes, on the computer, and via iCloud. If last backup was yesterday, and today you just got your 4s, just restore yesterday's iCloud backup and that's all! The only attention to take, is about connection: better if wi-fi, during restore, as iPhone must download all apps from the app store; what you do not get, until you sync it with your physical iTunes library, are possible apps which have been removed from the app store for some reason. For the rest, no pain, no fear -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com.

Re: The best Mac alternative to MS Office
Hello David, To add to Aser's explanation, you cannot choose MS Document formats to be the default saving format type in iWorks, although you can export to these file types, Pages and Numbers save in their own formats. Yuma asked about batch converting from Pages to Word documents a year ago, and I posted an AppleScript solution that can do this. You can find the description in the Mail Archive post: • Re: word documents on macs? http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg43720.html That post links to the AppleScripts on a MobileMe web page, so if you think you might use them I would download these before MobileMe web pages disappear in June, or before the owner decides to migrate to iCloud. (The links still work.) HTH. Cheers, Esther On Mar 6, 2012, at 6:26 AM, Aser Tolentino wrote: IWork apps will open new office files but they export the pre-2007 format.

Re: Looking for a good English Dictionary for the iPhone that does just a little bit more
Hello Mike, I agree with Aser that jDicitionary Mobile's Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus app would be a good choice for you; I actually tried typing in your sample word search of Potemkin as a test. What happens is that the app filters the results as you type, so you if you're not sure of the spelling, you can type the beginning of the word and start reading off matches in the results listed in the lines below the search text field, then double tap to select the entry you want. I'm going to paste in the text from a two-year old list post I wrote about dictionary apps. It includes a description of The Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus, and also of the WordBook app. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary app was not released at that time, in case you're wondering why it isn't included. I would add that I no longer recommend getting the Dictionary.com app, at least for the iPhone, because over a year ago they changed the app so it is more difficult to use with VoiceOver. The iPad version continued to work OK for some time after. I haven't updated the iPad version of the Dictionary.com app, because I suspect the same issues are now present. begin quote From: Esther Subject:Summary on Accessible Dictionary apps for the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad [was Re: Looking for a dictionary] Date: May 7, 2010 Hi Paul, comment: Dictionary.com app for iPhone is no longer recommended as accessibility with VoiceOver is not as good now I agree with Enjie that the Dictionary.com app is a very good choice for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad users who use VoiceOver. It's free, has nearly 1,000,000 words and 90,000 synonyms, a thesaurus, and will pronounce words if you double tap on the link image that follows each word. Furthermore, all these functions work (excerpt for the pronunciation of the word) whether or not you have an internet connection. There's a nice history function, and also a Word of the Day, and it's all accessible. To answer your question, the WordBook Dictionary is accessible, also has a thesaurus, is modestly priced ($1.99 for iPhone or iPod Touch; $2.99 for the iPad) and has some nice functions like allowing you to choose the voice used for pronunciation. It also has some nice links to other web dictionaries. bookmarking features, word of the day, etc. But what makes this app rather annoying for the VoiceOver user is the fact that the basic definition portion of the dictionary has linked nearly all the words in each definition. Although you can double tap any one of these definitions to go to the linked entry, the definition gets read out by VoiceOver with link following nearly every word. You might want to explore this yourself to see whether the added features outweigh the annoyances. I think that the voice selection gets turned on when you do a search and then you are given options for the voice to choose for the pronunciation under the audio button. The other dictionary app that I've used is the Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus ($0.99 or £0.59) by jDictionary Mobile, the same people who produce The World Factbook 2010 ($0.99). The Advanced English Dictionary is more of interest (to me) for its thesaurus use and links to related terms that come up in general contexts. These could be, for instance, cooking terms, popular science words, economic terms, etc. (Linked terms are kept under a separate entry, so definitions are read out fine.) Here's a link to a review of jDicitionary Mobile's Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus app that outlines some of the strengths in the way this app links to related words: http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/09/19/review_iphone_app_advanced_english_dictionary/print.html Their quick summary: AED cleverly fits words into a structure of meaning rather than a simple alphabetical list. One for explorers of language rather than crossword buffs. I'd suggest that most list users will want to check out the freeDictionary.com app first, and leave these other apps for additional exploration. Here are links to the apps mentioned in this post. All should be available internationally, All apps for the iPhone work on iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad (according to the store listings). However, the WordBook andDictionary.com apps have separate versions optimized to use the larger screen of the iPad. Please note that the Dictionary.com apps in particular can take a while to load -- they're over 42 MB and best downloaded over a WiFi connection. Remember that all these apps work independent of a network connection, so the database must be held on the device. • Dictionary.com - Dictionary Thesaurus (free) by Dictionary.com http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dictionary-com-dictionary/id308750436?mt=8 • Dictionary.com - Dictionary Thesaurus - For iPad (free) byDictionary.com http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/dictionary-com/id308750439 • WordBook English Dictionary Thesaurus

Re: Lion Installation Question
lol love that bit. well done. It's a straight foward Command F5 at bootup. from there, it's a pretty straight forward navigation. it's worth noting as an advisory that if installing lion, I'd recommend a clean install rather than an upgrade as there are some known bugs around regarding stability. so back up all your essential files or data you want to keep, then boot the lion installer, wipe the HDD and start afresh, this is of course assuming that your installation media ( OS X lion is on a DVD if burnt or mounted to a pen drive. lew On 6 Mar 2012, at 19:37, Emilio Hernandez wrote: Hello everyone, Finally considering the King of the Jungle upgrade.

Re: voiceover keyboard reference?
Hi Erik, How about just bringing up the VoiceOver Getting Started Guide and going to Appendix A that lists commands and gestures? If I navigate to Appendix A, and then copy the URL in Safari, it's: http://help.apple.com/voiceover/info/guide/10.7/English.lproj/_1131.html If I select all with Command-A and use the New TextEdit Window Containing Selection services menu option (that I've previously activated under System Preferences Keyboard Keyboard Shortcuts after selecting Services in the Shortcut Categories table and then checking this option in the Shortcuts table), I can save this as an RTF file from TextEdit.

Guys, I finally got it working. While Daisy Worm was a no go for this, InDaisy seems to work like a champ. It took a minute to get the file to open.

Re: Looking for a good English Dictionary for the iPhone that does just a little bit more
Hello Esther and Aser, I would very much like to thank the two of you for your recommendations. I have downloaded the jDictionary App and though I haven't done too much exploring, it seems to be just what the proverbial doctor ordered. Any future complaints I might have certainly won't be accessibility-related. Again thanks so much to both of you! Mike and On 6,Mar,2012, at 9:24 AM, Esther wrote: Hello Mike, I agree with Aser that jDicitionary Mobile's Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus app would be a good choice for you; I actually tried typing in your sample word search of Potemkin as a test. What happens is that the app filters the results as you type, so you if you're not sure of the spelling, you can type the beginning of the word and start reading off matches in the results listed in the lines below the search text field, then double tap to select the entry you want. I'm going to paste in the text from a two-year old list post I wrote about dictionary apps. It includes a description of The Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus, and also of the WordBook app. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary app was not released at that time, in case you're wondering why it isn't included. I would add that I no longer recommend getting the Dictionary.com app, at least for the iPhone, because over a year ago they changed the app so it is more difficult to use with VoiceOver. The iPad version continued to work OK for some time after. I haven't updated the iPad version of the Dictionary.com app, because I suspect the same issues are now present. begin quote From: Esther Subject:Summary on Accessible Dictionary apps for the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad [was Re: Looking for a dictionary] Date: May 7, 2010 Hi Paul, comment: Dictionary.com app for iPhone is no longer recommended as accessibility with VoiceOver is not as good now I agree with Enjie that the Dictionary.com app is a very good choice for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad users who use VoiceOver. It's free, has nearly 1,000,000 words and 90,000 synonyms, a thesaurus, and will pronounce words if you double tap on the link image that follows each word. Furthermore, all these functions work (excerpt for the pronunciation of the word) whether or not you have an internet connection. There's a nice history function, and also a Word of the Day, and it's all accessible. To answer your question, the WordBook Dictionary is accessible, also has a thesaurus, is modestly priced ($1.99 for iPhone or iPod Touch; $2.99 for the iPad) and has some nice functions like allowing you to choose the voice used for pronunciation. It also has some nice links to other web dictionaries. bookmarking features, word of the day, etc. But what makes this app rather annoying for the VoiceOver user is the fact that the basic definition portion of the dictionary has linked nearly all the words in each definition. Although you can double tap any one of these definitions to go to the linked entry, the definition gets read out by VoiceOver with link following nearly every word. You might want to explore this yourself to see whether the added features outweigh the annoyances. I think that the voice selection gets turned on when you do a search and then you are given options for the voice to choose for the pronunciation under the audio button. The other dictionary app that I've used is the Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus ($0.99 or £0.59) by jDictionary Mobile, the same people who produce The World Factbook 2010 ($0.99). The Advanced English Dictionary is more of interest (to me) for its thesaurus use and links to related terms that come up in general contexts. These could be, for instance, cooking terms, popular science words, economic terms, etc. (Linked terms are kept under a separate entry, so definitions are read out fine.) Here's a link to a review of jDicitionary Mobile's Advanced English Dictionary Thesaurus app that outlines some of the strengths in the way this app links to related words: http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/09/19/review_iphone_app_advanced_english_dictionary/print.html Their quick summary: AED cleverly fits words into a structure of meaning rather than a simple alphabetical list. One for explorers of language rather than crossword buffs. I'd suggest that most list users will want to check out the freeDictionary.com app first, and leave these other apps for additional exploration. Here are links to the apps mentioned in this post. All should be available internationally, All apps for the iPhone work on iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad (according to the store listings). However, the WordBook andDictionary.com apps have separate versions optimized to use the larger screen of the iPad. Please note that the Dictionary.com apps in particular can take a while to load -- they're over
Re: moveing the itunes library
Just grab the whole iTunes folder from your current drive and copy it to the external. Then hold down the option key when you launch iTunes to make it ask you where the library is. Point it to your new copy on the external drive and you're done. After that you can toss the old iTunes folder that you copied into the trash. Note that if you don't have your external hard drive and you launch iTunes it won't be able to find the iTunes library and will revert back to your internal hard drive. Then the next time your external drive is hooked up again you'll need to re-point iTunes to the external iTunes folder. There was discussion of work arounds previously on this list if you are concerned about having to re-point iTunes when the external drive is not present.

Re: Turkish language and the Mac.
Nektarios, First of all, you need to go to system preferences and choose language and text button and then the text input tab, which is the last tab. If you move to the right, you will come across a table of all available keyboards. You need to check the box in the first column, next to the Turkish keyboard. Once you have more than one keyboard enabled, unless you have done that before, it would be helpful if you enabled text input icon to appear in your menu bar so that you can always go there with control f8 and change your keyboards. There is a way of changing your keyboards by using a shortcut key but you may already know this. If not, contact me, and I shall try to help. I've just tried to speak to you on Skype, but as before, when I try to connect to you, the connection gets dropped. Hope this helps. Good luck with Turkish.

Textual IRC client
A long time ago, someone recommended this IRC client, and I just bought it. Only one problem. I can't figure out where chats are. I see channel info (with like the channel banner and stuff), list of channel participants in a table, but can't find chats. I don't suppose it's possible to have it read off chats automagically, is there?

Tables in Word Documents on the Mac
Good Day: Firstly, this being my first post to this list, I should probably give a brief introduction. As you can tell from the name field, my name is Henry Hollithron. I am a college student, and las October, I acquired a MacBook Pro. As you might expect, Mac OS has become my primary operating system, and though I still have my windows computers, I prefer, if possible, to accomplish what I wish on, what to me, is a much more intuitive system. In any case, I have been wondering for quite some time whether there is any word processor currently available which can handle tables. As I said earlier, I am a college student, and I some times receive documents with tables. My experience thus far has been that neither Nisus Writer Pro nor Pages even acknowledges the tables. As for Text Edit, I can at least get the content from the tables, but if I have to make some modifications to the file in question and send it back, the table formatting disappears, which is a problem. From checking the list archives, I have gotten the impression that there is not currently a way to get tables to work. Am I correct? I would be glad to be told that I am wrong, since I'd rather not have to add working with tables to the very small list of tasks for which I still need to use Windows. Any help is much appreciated. Thank You: Henry Education never ends. It is a series of lessons, with the greatest for the last.

Re: Tables in Word Documents on the Mac
Hi Henry. If you are creating your own table, then you could, if you are using tables with equal width columns and rows do it through Numbers. I got it to work in Pages, and it would have been fine if I didn't have to export the file to Word. That's where things got messed up for me. Actually, I not real fond of doing tables in Word either because it's a little bit fun, she said sarcastically, editing the cells within the table, even in Word. I did quite a few of those things before I got my MacBook Pro. We've had some rather extensive posts before you joined this list on this subject. You might want to look through previous posts to get more information. Also, one thing you can do in TextEdit I have done lately is type a column at a time and paste them into Numbers. The advantage of that is that you can get them nice and edited first without the restriction of editing in a cell. I have started doing this when I enter several entries at once into my invoices. It's a lot faster, and by the way, I had a terrible time pasting anything into a Word table and having it come out right back in the days when I was using a Windows computer.

Re: Let's hear each other!
You are absolutely correct! GSM networks actually use a narrow band 3.1KHZ codec called AMR. The 8KHZ you are referring to is commonly associated to the sampling rate of the G.711 ULaw codec. It would be amazing to have an 8khz audio bandwidth codec on our cellphones… Some european carriers are almost there with a tentative adoption of the G.722 standard.

Editing PDF files on the Mac
Hello all, Is there a way to edit PDF files on the Mac? For example, many of the tax forms on the IRS web site are editable electronic forms. Do we have a way of editing those kinds of documents?

Re: Let's hear each other!
Hmm, I live in Spain. I don't think I could call a US 800 network... On 3/7/12, Emrah li...@kavun.ch wrote: You are absolutely correct! GSM networks actually use a narrow band 3.1KHZ codec called AMR. The 8KHZ you are referring to is commonly associated to the sampling rate of the G.711 ULaw codec. It would be amazing to have an 8khz audio bandwidth codec on our cellphones… Some european carriers are almost there with a tentative adoption of the G.722 standard.

Re: Upgrading RAM in a Macbook Pro
the upgrade is very simple in deed. it's a simple case of removing a set of case screws located under the macbook pro. the lid underneeth simply lifts off revealing the HD drive, logic board and ram, etc. the ram is held in place by 2 retention clips per stick, so simply touch the two retention clips and gently spread them so that the sticks pop up then remove them. remove the new memory from the packaging and then install. re install the lid with the screws and then reboot the laptop. please note the following... unplug the laptop from the mains and other conections you may have like ethernet cables, USB, etc and ensure your laptop is TURNED OFF. lew On 7 Mar 2012, at 07:02, Ricardo Walker wrote: Hello list, I have a stock mid 2010 Macbook Pro.
