Re: Apple TV 4th generation woes

2024-04-05 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
I have an Apple TV fourth gen.  Just where are you having trouble?

What ever you do, don't throw it out the window.  It does work.  First, you can 
turn on voice Over by pressing the back button three times quickly.  The back 
button is the concaved button just to the left and below the down arrow button. 
 Be aware that the navigational area can both be tapped and pressed physically. 
 Mostly, you'll be physically pressing rather than tapping it however.  
For further, you might check Apple Vis or else the Apple web site where you 
should be able to find what you need.  There's just too much for me to cover in 
one message.

Re: Zoom H1 essential recorder with voice guidance

2024-03-10 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Those instructions are exactly correct. But they are predicated on the assumption that when you first enter the menu system you go into the record settings. A previous user may have left the device on a different menu. In which case, those instructions will not quite apply. Nevertheless. They make a good starting point.Sincerely:The constantly barefooted RayStill a very happy Mack Xfinity Mobile iPhone and Apple TV userSent from my iPhone:The first ever cellular phone equipped with Full accessibility for the blind built him! On Mar 10, 2024, at 9:55 AM, Michael Babcock  wrote:If, for some reason, the voice guidance isn't heard on your H1E, please follow these troubleshooting steps.Number one, turn the device on by pulling the slider switch toward you on the left side of the device holding it for a second and then releasing.

Re: Zoom H1 essential recorder with voice guidance

2024-03-10 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Phil,

I bought a brand spanking new Zoom H1 Essential recorder.  It does indeed come 
up talking first thing.  Dave's spekulation must be correct.  IF your unit did 
not come up talking, some sighted light dependent person must have turned 
speech off.  I suppose you might use a service like Be My Ehes or Ira to get it 
turned back on at first then go from there.

Re: Setting up Apple tv 4K without sighted help

No need to be nervous at all.  First thing you do once you've plugged

That will turn on Voice Over and you're good to go from there.

Okay.

I am running the latest version of Ventura which is all this 2017 Mac book pro

When I first set it up, my e-mail was so configured that I would be in the list 
of mail boxes and if I wanted to get to messages in a particular box, I just 
selected the box with the arrow keys and then tabbed once to access the list of

Re: quick apple 4k tv question?

2023-03-10 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
With respect to Auxiliary connectors on the Apple TV 4K, forget it.  None at 
all.  Your only option is an HDMI conector.  Whether you might be able to buy a 
special breakout box is another matter.

As for voices, every voice available from the Apple lineup is now available on 
the Apple TV box.

HTH.

2023-02-28 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Yes it is.  Be aware, however, that if you switch to the US Siri voices, and 
you try to click on Amazon prime video, it will switch back to the Samantha 
voice for the duration you're using prime video.  When you switch back to 
anything else, you will be back to the US Siri voice you chose.  That's why on 
my Apple TV, my Mac and my Iphone, I use the US enhanced Nathen voice.

navigating the app store on my new Mac

2023-01-24 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Hi there,

I have now upgraded to Ventura 13.2.

Navigating the app store on my new 2017 Mac is a living nightmare.  I can 
search for an app I want and see the results, but, no matter how I try I cannot 
seem to read any information about the chosen app I’m considering.  If I press 
VO+space on the app, it seems I select the get button.  If I try to interact 
with the choice I want, I see nothing.  What am I missing here?

 I’ve noticed a subtle difference when experimenting in the VO keyboard

 With just Fn and the left/right the announcement is Home and end, as 
 reported.
 
 However when holding Fn plus VO and pressing left arrow, a moment after 
 saying home it will also announce “Go to beginning, moves the cursor to 
 the beginning” and similar additional information for the right arrow.
 
 I think there is a difference in behavior for these two scenarios that may 
 indeed affect how it works inside documents, etc.

Re: Mail Question: VO-J does not Read Email Message?

2022-12-28 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
I just use it like this.  When I’m in the all inboxes selection, and I want to 
read messages there, I just tab over to the message table and I’m there.  I 
should point out that I have preview set for five lines.  I’m not talking about 
the preview pain here.  YOu get rid of the preview pain the way Herbe described 
and it works like a charm.  I also have my messages set so that they are in 
assending order going down from the top and I did that in the view menu.  
When I want to look at my sent folder, all I kneed to do is just 
shift+tab over to the mail boxes table and arrow down to it then tab over right 
in to it and I’m there.  Want to get back to the all inbox selection?  Just 
shift+tab back to the mail box table and then up to the inbox then tab right 
over.

I’m using the latest in Ventura and, to the best of my knowledge, not using the 
classic view.

some weirdnesses on my new Mac

2022-12-07 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay,

I am noticing two occurances of my main hard drive on my Mac.  I can’t seem to 
get rid of what appears to be a duplicate drive.

Second, I’m noticing system dialogs which always appear to be empty are precent 
when I press VO+F1.  No matter what I do, I can’t seem to get rid of them.

Any thoughts?  I’m using Ventura, the latest updates.

custom presets from one Mac to another

Okay,

I need to move presets from my LCapitan Mac to a new one (actually 2017) Mac I 
just bought.  I need to know where the custom presets get stored so that I can 
move them manually.  The presets have to do with Amadeus Pro but they are for 
the Apple paragraphic equalizer.  I need to move them manually because 
migration assistant won’t recognize the old Mac so I  can move stuff to the new 
one.

a most piculiar tae and tool bar problem

2022-11-14 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
OK I am going to put this down to just me not knowing what I am doing in 
Ventura.


It used to be that when I was navigating in System Settings, I could navigate 
the table on the left with VO up and down, and then stop interacting with the 
table and move to the table to the right of the item that I stop focusing on on 
the left table would be selected. But today, I can't do that. Something I did 
change that so that I cannot navigate it that way at all but I have to press 
the item I want on the table to the left of the old space before it gets 
selected in the table on the right.


Also, tool bars are a problem I don't seem to need to interact with them, but I 
can't get out of them without pressing VO right again and again until I’m 
focused on gthe first item after the tool bar. Can anybody familiar with this 
new operating system advise me what settings to look at and change?

Thanks in advance.

Re: A Question for Apple TV Plus Subscribers

2022-10-03 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Sure, here’s what to do.

One. On your Apple TV box, go onto settings.
Two. From there click on accessibility.
Three. From there, click on motion. The item you want is the one right below 
the top. The second item. By default this will be on. Turn it off. Hope that 
helps.

Wait.  Don’t give up yet.  Do this.

1.  Open Safari.

2.  Now, click on show book marks.  You should see history in the selections at 
the top of the screen.  
3.  Click this and everything will show.

Re: signature in mail question

2022-05-26 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Unfortunately, I seem to have forgotten how to do it. I did turn cursor 
tracking off, but, nothing I tried there after worked.


I may have to re-create the account again anyway. The need for a password to 
login to the SMTP side keeps turning off. And so Comcast keeps rejecting my 
attempts to send email. I’m going to add SMTP, but, somehow, the way enter a 
password and check that as the means of authentication, it does not seem to 
help. Either my Mac is just getting too old, or my memory is on how to set this 
up correctly. Sho Should I do it through Mail? Or use Internet accounts?





Also, I have had to delete my iCloud account from my Mac because somehow, every 
time I go to try to create just the mail account, Internet accounts keeps 
telling me that the account already exists when I know that it doesn’t because 
I had to delete it. Sorry for all the jumbled and confusion, but, that’s just 
how things are for me right now.

internet almost useless to me on Mac now

2022-04-18 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay,  Until I can get a new Mac somehow, does anybody out there know of a good 
more text based browser that I can actually use with El Capitain?  I know, 
that’s old but it’s all I’ve got now because this old Mac (a mid 2009 moddel) 
will not support anything more recent.  So, I figured that if Safari is getting 
less and less useful to me, and Crome is not much better now, is there any 
alternative that I might try?

Re: cannot browse walmart.com on my Mac at all now

2022-03-30 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Thanks Herb. I appreciate your answer.


Let me tell you, yesterday I tried to shop with the Walmart app on my iPhone. 
What a disaster. Things kept jumping around, the focus kept jumping, I couldn’t 
concentrate on anything in that I put all. I couldn’t focus on any of the 
information I was looking for. I got so mad, I deleted it from my phone. I I’m 
using an iPhone 12 pro max with the latest iOS, by the way.

cannot browse walmart.com on my Mac at all now

2022-03-30 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Y’all,

It’s been half a year since Hurricane Ida struck here and I’m home in a 
new  apartment and all.  I went to browse walmart.com just now and found that I 
cannot move through the site at all.  I’m using El Capitain on my Mac because 
it’s too old to support anything more recent.  What settings should I have in 
Safari to be able to browse walmart.com again on my Mac?  This is very 
frustrating.  Thanks.

Re: Rumble

2021-06-25 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Yeah, I can play it on my phone also.  Their app is kind of okay but their 
search configuration on the app is real weird.  You actually have to turn voice 
over off to press the search button to get it to work.  The only place I can’t 
seem to play stuff from them is my Mac which is a mid 2009 mac and so it can’t 
support anything past ElCapitan.

Honestly, it still gets me that way to from time to time.  I recently was sent 
a link to a video which, despite my best efforts, just would not play.  I once 
contacted them about the issue but their response did not give me much reason 
for hope they were willing to look at it.  Perhaps the only thing is to keep 
trying to reach out to them and point out the problem.  Some videos I can play 
but others will not.

Re: Amadeus Pro gliche

2021-04-28 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Check your general preferences to make sure that the space bar only plays the 
selected material.  Sounds like this is unchecked.  you want to be sure to 
check this.  Also, Command+y does in fact move the insertion point to the play 
head.  That is, Unless Marv changed something I am not aware of.  When I want 
to select something, I do this:

1.  Play until I hear the beginning of the thing I want to select.

2.  Press space to stop playing.

3.  Press command+y to move the insertion point directly to the spot where the 
playback head is.

4.  Press P to drop a marker at that spot.

5.  Now, move to the end where you want the selection to stop.

6.  Press space to stop then command why to move the insertion point to the 
playback head and then p to drop your next marker.

7.  Now, by doing it this way, you give yourself the flexibility to make that 
selection any time you need to afterward by just pressing option+left or right 
until you get to the beginning marker then press command+right to move the 
selection directly to the next marker.

Alternatively, you may prefer to use the M key to drop a marker.  This will 
open a dialog which will allow you to name the marker for future reference.

HTH.

Re: Rumble

2021-01-30 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Easy.  When you are in Safari, you kneed to go in to the developer menu and 
there, disable styles.  That seems weird but after you do this, refresh the 
page with the video on it.  Now, you want to look for the word “loading” on the 
page.  IF you press VO+space on this word, it causes the video to play.  IF you 
don’t disable styles in the developer menu before you try this, it will not  
work.

Don’t know why but HTH.

further keyboard trouble

2021-01-21 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Looks like no matter which window I’m in, (whether I’m in Amadeus Pro or not) I 
cannot move directly to the beginning or end of a window.  Also, when I press 
keyboard help and then press the FN key plus up or down or right or left, I’m 
not hearing page up page down or home or end as I should be.  It seems like the 
FN key on this keyboard is not functioning correctly and I have no other 
keyboard since the built in one is not working correctly because the entire 
bottom row is gone.  Any thoughts?

Oh, I’ve tried switching the FN key to let function keys work like normal 
function keys but that doesn’t seem to make a difference.

Re: keyboard focus all messed up now

2021-01-21 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Well, Brad, that’s exactly what I’m trying to do but either the “mission 
control keeps coming up or the keyboard doesn’t let me jump in the way it used 
to do.

The only thing I can think of is that I’ve changed something but can’t tell  
what.

keyboard focus all messed up now

2021-01-20 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay.  I’m really frustrated with this now.  Something I did means that I can’t 
jump directly from the top left of a window to the bottom right of the window 
using FN+control+command+right or left arrow.  Im running el capitaine and I’m 
loosing my mind over this.  Every time I try to move focus using 
FN+control+command+right or left in Amadeus Pro to jump directly from the left 
most to the right most end of the window I wind up just opening the wigit 
window instead and I can’t think how to restore behavior to the correct way.  
I’m using a blue tooth keyboard and the regular keyboard has the bottom row all 
completely gone so it’s no good now.  This Mac is a mid 2009 and I can’t afford 
a newer one.  Got any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

looking to replace video downloader

Hi,

It appears I can’t download youtube videos anymore via Downie because they made 
changes and I can’t use the latest version of Downie because this old mid 2009 
Mac book pro will only go up to El Capitan.  So,  What is the most accessible 
alternative video downloader out there Thanks.

Yes, in fact, Youtube TV is accessible.  Be aware that it does not yet support

All I will say is this.  I’m not attempting to tell anyone here what to 
believe:  Just saying that I refuse to apologize for what I am.  Three things 
about me andthat I keep being told are wrong by those on the left.  I have 
concluded to make the kind of stand which will best defend my positions while 
not imposing them on others.  However, to directly answer your question as best 
I can.  The recent Firefox thread will contain some examples of this.  I’m done.

First, If he’s got the latest version of Drop Box for Mac, it can be found in 
the applications folder.  Open it from there.

Now, with respect to the public folder, that’s not how it’s done 
anymore.  He can just put the file he’s trying to share with you at the route 
of the Drop Box folder itself and create a link directly to it from the short 
cut menu.  He sends you the link and off you go.

Re: commands for navigating the web

2020-05-16 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Can’t give you all of them but here are some.

Navigate heading by heading, use Vo+H.
Click on a link, use VO+space.

Navigate to next text area, N.

For many more commands, use VO+K and in the keyboard help mode, use VO plus 
various letter keys to discover what they let you do.  
Get out of keyboard help by pressing escape.

Re: cannot erase disk partitions on my Mac

2020-04-26 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Just decided to hard format the external USB drive and loose my iTunes library. 
 Not mind you that I have been fooling around with iTunes much on this mid 2009 
Mac book pro.  I’ve now set my Drop Box to online files only and redirected it 
to the home folder on my Mac’s 512GB.  That leaves me with an entire 4TB USB 
drive as a spare disk.  My Drop box account has 2TB on it but that takes up no 
space at all since it’s set to online only.

cannot erase disk partitions on my Mac

2020-04-25 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay,

Here’s the thing.  Using L-Capitan on my mid 2009 Mac book pro, I am trying to 
erase partitions on my external USB drive but I can’t do it.  I think the 
problem occurs when I try to select the partition to be remove in the pie view. 
 Instead of removing partitions, I just seem to be creating new ones and can’t 
remove them.  Is there any way to accessibly do this without totally formatting 
the entire drive?  It’s a 4TB USB drive and I’ve got a lot of audio I don’t 
want to lose on it just to do this.  HELP!

Re: Weather app

2020-01-13 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Weather office is free and very nice and basic and accurate also.  It has never 
gone wrong on me yet.  Couldn’t ask for better if basic weather is what you’re 
after.

Re: audio description

2019-11-28 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Yes.  IF you go in to the accessibility pannel off system prefs, you will 
notice a table.  Choose the “description” option from this table and make sure 
it’s checked.

Re: What happened to the status bar in iOS 13

You need to swipe down very very slowly from the upper right or left corner to 
get to it.  You’ll hear a lot of clicking going on while you do this but it is 
possible.  This one threw me at first too.

Re: Was anyone disappointed with Apple?

2019-09-11 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
You need to remember that Apple never ever ever talks about accessibility when 
they do these events.  You also need to realize that because people are visual 
by nature, the videos are going to look a certain way but we will never know 
what they contain really because the live event versions are not described on 
the live broadcast.  Also, with respect to the focus on the camera, you should 
actually care because without a good camera, how you going to scan anything?

Sounds like this defunked address is in your past recipients table.  You need 
to go in to your windows menu off your main menu and find this table and from

Sure is.

1.  Open the message you want to forward.

2.  Now, focus on the name of the person who sent the message and swipe down 
with one finger until you here “More.

3.  Double tap here.

4.  Now, within the menu which opens up there will be a forward option.  Double 
tap it.

Nope.  Sure didn’t.  Tried Classic Weather and it turned out to be a dud.

Still looking.

Re: a good weather app for Mac

Not yet.  But I saw something in the Mac app store called Classic weather.  
Bear in mind I can’t run the latest Mac OS so I’m rather limited.

a good weather app for Mac

Okay,

Since the people at the Braille underground weather page seem not to be 
interested in fixing the 500 internal server error which is still there, I 
guess it’s time to go looking for a good weather app for my Mac.  Something 
text only or close to it.  Any ideas?

On my Mac book Pro running L-capitan, it’s option+home to jump to beginning and 
option+end to jump to end.  home is pressed on Mac book pro by pressing FN+left 
and end is pressed by pressing FN+right.  Make sure you set your function keys 
to operate as function keys though.

what's this "imbedded" buisness

I notice that when I go in to the body of many e-mails these recent days, I see 
“imbeded” a lot.  Somebody else asked this a day or so ago and got no answer.  
So, what’s with this “imbeded” business anyhow?

Re: Clean My Mac X verses Onix

2019-04-04 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
It looks to me like it’s all tables you need to interact with one at a time.  
If you do this, you can pretty much tell what’s going on.

Also, if you use the smart scan, you can look just to the left of the clean 
button and see an area where there are three sections.  Each section needs to 
be interacted with before you can see what’s there.

2019-03-15 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
That is exactly the reason I refuse to buy one of those Orbit readers.  The 
BrailleMi is just exactly the same way from what I hear.

Very interesting:  but, do you really think that Nasa actually believes a blind

CleanMyMac worth the price

2019-03-02 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay,

I couldn’t care less if I sound like a commercial here.  But, fact of the 
matter is this.  I bought CleanMyMac and it’s totally worth the $39.00 I paid 
for it.  It’s made my this here dinosaur of a mid 2009 Mac book Pro a lot 
snappier than it was before.  Mail is opening and behaving much much faster, 
Safari is both opening and browsing much much faster than before and overall, I 
can’t say enough about how much faster this thing is.  I’m just wondering if 
there’s any way to fix the time it takes to boot up from either restart or 
having been shut down.  It used to only take about 40 seconds now it takes 
about a minute and 30 seconds.  The only thing I’ve got starting up at the 
beginning is Drop Box.  That routs to a spinning 4TB drive but the Drop Box 
partition is only 1TB on that disk.  Anything I might be overlooking?  Oh, 
needless to say, I cannot upgrade to Mohavi because this here Mac is way too 
old.

odd observation with Text Edit

2019-02-06 Thread Raymond Foret Jr
Okay,

Some feedback would sure be appreciated.  Earlier today, I was filling out a 
three page application for Section 8 recertification which the local section 8 
office converted to .rtf for me before they sent it.  I noticed that, while I 
was going along answering the questions, as I got further down the form to the 
bottom of page 1, and all the rest of the way down, I could read the questions 
fine:  but, I could not focus the curser so I could type my answers in the 
correct places so as to preserve the formatting.  Every single time I needed to 
put an X by a check box for either yes or no, or needed to type specific 
information, I had to go in to the view menu and choose zoom in.  Even going 
full screen was no help.  IS there something I overlooked in the process of 
opening the form?  Some setting I should adjust for next time?  Thanks.

 I have been asked to create a sound file in OGG format. Anybody have a 
 reasonable tool for doing this?
 
 Thanks,

Done through iCloud.  Just sign in to iCloud and check the internet box to 
synch it.  Good and done.
