Re: Beginners question

[Petrus Tuerlings]

I’ll try that later as I’m about to get ready to go to work, I don’t want to be 
late as I’ve been off work fore two months now with a broken wrist and this is 
my first evening back. 
I was playing round and discovered the VO+h twice and then I was able to arrow 
down until I found speech and was able to adjust the rate from there.
But thanks again for that key combo as that would be much quicker.
Take care

Re: Beginners question

[Dave Carlson]

Raymond,
I’m confused, also. I do not get any change when pressing Shift-VO-Right/left, 
nor any effect with Shift-VO-Up/down. Is there a VO setting that we need to 
activate to get this to work?
If I run the keyboard help (VO-K) it also does not identify those keystrokes 
you gave.

Beginners question

[Petrus Tuerlings]

Hi all,
I’m going to ask a really simple beginners question. Is there a quick way of 
speeding or slowing down Voice over on the Mac? I can’t remember how I did it 
but in certain places voice over is just a little too fast for me to hear 
correctly. If I’m reading an email then the speed is perfect, but if I open the 
messages app and read the last message someone sent me it is so fast I can 
hardly hear it. I looked in Voice over preferences and can’t remember what I 
did. I was hoping there was a simple key stroke I could use if I’m on a spot 
when it is talking too fast.
Thanks, 
Petrus

Manage Health data on your iPhone, iPod touch, or Apple Watch, Apple Support

[M. Taylor]

Manage Health data on your iPhone, iPod touch, or Apple Watch

You can set up apps and accessories to send data to the Health app, enter
data manually, and change how Health prioritizes data from those sources.

How Health handles data from multiple sources
The Health app takes similar data from different sources, like steps
recorded from your iPhone and activity from your Apple Watch, and organizes
it based on where it comes from. By default, Health prioritizes data in this
order:
1.  Health data that you enter manually.
2.  Data from your iPhone, iPod touch, and Apple Watch. 
3.  Data from apps and Bluetooth devices.

When you add a new data source, it appears above all other apps and devices
that contribute data for steps in Health. You can change the order of
sources at any time. 
 
View your data sources
Here's how to see which sources update data for specific Health categories:
1.  Open the Health app and tap the Health Data tab.
2.  Tap a category, like Activity. If you don't see the category, swipe
down to reveal the search bar, then enter a category.
3.  Tap a data type, like Steps.
4.  Tap Data Sources & Access. Only the sources that contribute to that
data type will appear. 

Here's how to see all of your sources:
1.  Open the Health app and tap the Sources tab. 
2.  Tap an app or device. 
3.  Choose categories that you want the source to access or update in
the Health app.
 
Prioritize data sources
Here's how to choose the sources that Health uses first:
1.  Open the Health app and tap the Health Data tab.
2.  Tap a category, like Activity.
3.  Tap a data type, like Steps.
4.  Tap Data Sources & Access, then tap Edit.
5.  Touch and hold   next to a data source, then drag it up or down in
the list. 
6.  To turn off a data source so that it doesn't contribute any more
data for that category, tap the checkmark next to the source.
7.  Tap Done.
If multiple sources contribute the same data type, then the data source at
the top will take priority over other sources. Any new apps or devices that
you add go to the top of the list automatically, above your iPhone or iPod
touch. 
 
Enter data
You can enter data that isn't tracked by an app or device. For example, if
you get your blood pressure from a doctor's visit, you can enter it.
1.  Open the Health app and tap the Health Data tab. 
2.  Tap a health category, like Vitals.
3.  Tap a data type, like Blood Pressure.
4.  Tap  , in the upper-right corner.
5.  Enter the date, time, and data for that activity.
6.  When you're finished, tap Add.

Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

[Petrus Tuerlings]

Now I wish I was a little more organised with my email folders, I had a similar 
set of questions a few months back where I was trying to change the genre in 
iTunes. With lots of help and patients from Tim, ET and others I got there. If 
I find the old emails I’ll re-post  them. 
Now this might all change when iTunes dies, so we will have to wait and see if 
it is easier. But once I got the hang of it, it wasn’t too  bad.

Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

Yeah, because it's a complicated element, where it's a combo-box, entry field 
and pop-over thing, VO doesn't necessarily handle it as consistently as other 
elements.  It used to be easier, but in the upgrades for the sighted user, it 
made it more cumbersome for that field for us.  I've just found that it's 
easier to press VO-space on the combo-box, then arrow and return then go back 
to VO-navigation after that so that I don't have to Window Chooser all the 
time.  I don't do this much anymore as most of my music has already been fixed 
up.

Later...

Subject: Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

Tim,
Starting to get the hang of this. Thanks for all the tips. One question has to 
do with changing the genre. This is a combo list inside the scroll list inside 
the dialog — I think you can wrap your head around that. So I VO-arrow to the 
genre I want, and then I get into some serious trouble. Pressing spacebar jumps 
me back to the main iTunes windows, so I use the windows chooser to get bak. 
Pressing VO-spacebar does nothing. Pressing VO-shift-uparrow gives me an 
announcement to press Escape to get out of the drop list. When I do that, I’m 
back up, and the genre had not changed. Seems like the only thing that works, 
sort of, is pressing the Enter key and then I’m apparently back out of the 
combo list. Any hints to why this is so unpredictable?

RE: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

[Simon A Fogarty]

Hi Dave,

If each album is in it’s own folder then you don’t need a different product or 
batch file to change this data,

As tim said if you highlight the files in the album folder or all te tracks 
then use get info to change the album name, artist etc

Give it a try and see how you get on,

Don’t  knock it until you try it

Tim,
I have a few hundred songs that have no album and no artist information in 
their tags. So when I paste these into iTunes, they end up in a group of blanks 
with just the song titles.  So trying to grab a group of them from an 
alphabetical list does not work. They are in separate folders in my original 
collection of music files, so I do know what artist and album names they are 
supposed to have  — it’s just that none of these ever got properly tagged.
So even though I can use the info dialog in iTunes to work on changing songs 
that are already grouped or single songs, I do need an app to do this from the 
folder/file list in Finder.

Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

If it's a genre you use lots, just type the first few letters of it.  So, for 
example, if you have a genre called "Easy Listening", just type the word "Easy" 
then either tab or use VO-right to move on.  If you have "Easy Listening" and 
"Easy Rock", you'll usually need to enter "Easy r" to make it be Easy Rock as 
Easy Listening is first alphabetically, so just typing "Easy" would default to 
"Easy Listening".  You can also add your own genres just by typing it into the 
field yourself.  If you do choose to use their list without typing, use just 
the arrow keys, no VO keys, and press return when you're done.

Pressing VO-spacebar does nothing. Pressing VO-shift-uparrow gives me an

Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

So, using your setup, import the folder group that you wish to modify the tags 
on.  Thus, these will be the only ones with the missing album/artist info.  If 
you sort things by the Date Added, then you'll have easy access to the newest 
imports.  Then you can select those newest items, cmd-i to Get Info on them and 
make the necessary changes.  If the Date Added column is not available to you 
in your Songs table, press cmd-j to bring up the View options, navigate through 
them and check the box for showing Date Added.  Now, with the Date Added column 
present, interact with the Music table, press VO-shift-back slash to bring 
focus to the headers, and press VO-space on the Date Added header.  Pressing it 
a second time will toggle sort direction between ascending and descending.  I 
like it descending so that the newest items are at the top.  You can then 
select them and modify the tags as you wish.

Later...

Re: VPN’s?

[jeff `greene]

Hi I currently have ExpressVPN and have used Nord in the past. Nord
really slowed down my connection so I dropped them. ExpressVPN is very
accessible both on the mac and iphone. The one problem I have with it
on the iphone is after its active I can't get email. I think I just
have to change some settings or call Express and it will be solved.
Hope this helps! Jeff

Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

That's a rather exaggerated and incorrect evaluation of the process in iTunes.

1.  Select the items you wish to modify.
2.  Press cmd-i to Get Info.
3.  Navigate through the Info dialog editing the fields you wish to modify.
4. Press OK.

All done.  Maybe you can add a few steps if you plan on modifying numerous 
fields, but that's not particularly complicated or inefficient as far as I can 
tell.  I guess that we all have our own opinions, but that sort of exaggeration 
does not help anyone.

Re: Tag Editor for Batch Editing Music Files

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

What sort of issues are you having when doing this in iTunes?  Using the Info 
dialog in iTunes, you can easily do what you want individually or in bulk.  
I've used it extensively for this exact process.  There are likely other tools 
out there, but I haven't bothered to look since iTunes is fully accessible and 
does the job efficiently.

I think I’ll plug one of my computers directly into the router and see if I get

Re: A Strange Speaker Sound Scenario with Mark's Apple Watch, Series 4, with LTE

[Angie Nutt]

I’ve had the problem with the first watch which came out and now again with the 
3rd gen. It’s been like it for a while, never clears up. When I get round to it 
I’ll try repairing again  and see if it works.

All the best

RE: Speed Test Results

[Simon A Fogarty]

Petrus is using a rather up to date device which is able to run 1gigabit speeds.

 As is my own device.
But like anything including your list of possible reasons
We can include the limits behind or with our nations fibre connections 
including each connection having a limit of I believe 25 users per connection 

As our our fibre connections  run on the ADSL 2 plus protocol which is still 
pretty much old tech

Hello,

I get a bit confused also, (no pun intended). In terms of the internet, when 
you are transmitting data, such as when talking about speed, it is always in 
bits rather than bites. As far as the question of why wi-fi is slower than 
wired, it is nearly always that way. A wired signal always transmits along the 
wire, and does not weaken until it reaches a certain distance, whereas a wi-fi 
signal may have to go through walls, be accessed from an angle, experience 
interference, etc. Also, there are two different kinds of wi-fi signal, 2.4 
GHZ, and 5.0 GHZ. The 2.4 will transmit for a longer distance, but will be 
slower, and the 5.0 will weaken at a shorter distance from the box. I don’t 
know how much difference it makes if you are using fiber though. I would call 
the internet service provider and let them know what is happening. It could be 
the box needs to be moved, a channel needs to be changed, or something needs to 
be updated. It could also be that the device you are using to access the 
internet with is simply not built to process one gigabit of speed. Okay okay, 
the nerd is shutting up now. Hope at least some of this was helpful.

Holly
