Re: e-bay audio verification won't play
Hi, This won't really solve your problem, but I thought I'd let you know that as of a couple of days ago, this stopped working on pc's as well, so its not a Safari / osx thing. Cheers, Ben.

Re: steve Jobs in 1994.
Hi, There wasn't any mention of accessibility in the biography at all, but then again, hardly any of the individual features of osx or iOs were mentioned iether.

Re: steve Jobs in 1994.
Hi, Thats true, but he would have done the exact same for any other feature of iOs - that won't have been exclusive to accessibility. I'm not saying that he didn't care about it all, but people talking about him as if he was some sort of missionary is a bit over the top imo; he won't have made voiceover out of the good of his heart, he will have done it because there was a market that the iPhone hadn't entered. I do agree that they've done an amazing job with vo and I find it quite ironic that arguably the best phone for a blind person to purchase is one with a touch screen. On 30/10/2011, Joanne Chua shuang.an...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Another arguement i have from some other sources are that, considering how hand on person he is, won't be surprise if he has a major impack on their accessibility. Regardless, does it matter? After all, come to the products, and the products are useful, accessible, and become an essential in our life. Considering how much Apple take on their Grapic approach, and how much it can be also accessible, that prove something isn't it? After all, who would have thought, graphics and accessibility can go together hand in hand. 5 years ago, if you are blind, and tell someone that you want a totally touch phone they think you insane too. I wonder what sort of biography will people like founders of Freedom Scientific, Humanware, GWMicro, and so on gotta write?

Re: Can I stop the backup and begin it later without likelihood of a problem?
Hi, Its probably too late now, but no, I really wouldn't do that if I were you. iTunes isn't always 100% truethfull about what its doing what stage its at in the process - e.g. It says its restoring the firmware when its actually upgrading it, so I really wouldn't feel confident enough to remove the device half way through an upgrade. You could be lucky though, but if not, you'll probably have a broken phone until you can restore again. Cheers, Ben.

Re: playing iphone video on a normal tv
Hi, You'd probably get better responses if you posted this on viPhone. To answer your question though, if you have an iPhone 4 then you can get an Apple adapter that lets you convert the 30 pin doc connector into hdmi. For older devices you can get third party component out adapters which should do what you want, but Apple are quite picky about what will work and what doesn't. I have a belkin one for my 3GS which I've only ever used once actually and it seemed to work well enough. I'm not sure what the 3GS outputs at, but I'm guessing it wouldn't look amazing on a large screen - my iPad 2 does upto 720P, compared to DVD's which are only 480. Cheers, Ben.

No way. However, if all you want to do is count line numbers then you should be able to do it through Apple script.

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?
James, I'd argue that the only people that look stupid are those people who reffuse to use a piece of software because of its target market. You should use what ever application works best for you; if that turns out to be a mainstream twitter client thats great, if it turns out to be a (For want of a better term) blind client thats great. I do agree that its great that we have more mainstream applications being made available for us, but I'd venture to guess that not that many (If any) mainstream twitter clients have the same sort of interface that qwitter has. For me, this is something I've grown to like. Perhaps I along with everyone else who use it instead of spending time trying to get another client to work are contributing to the typical image of a blind person that you seem to hate so much. I disagree with this, but it has the potential to become very off topic, so I'll reitterate that people should use what ever is best for them, both on and off the computer.

The only reason I wanted to see a port of qwitter was simply because it provides features that most of the other twitter clients do not, or if they provide those features they are either more hidden away or in the wrong place. It would be great if someone would write a twitter client that had 4 columns lined up; timeline, direct messages, mentions, and sent. Then you could add more columns for specific people who you are interested in, so only there tweets showed up. Then a simple tweet box. The ability to follow people, unfollow people, and a button to go to their twitter profile. You could customise the time before new tweets are received. That's it; that, in my oppinion, would be the perfect twitter client. Many of the other clients (including qwitter itself) have a lot of unnecessary features.

Re: complex networking question (double nating)
I've slept on this one. Is it possible to set the scope of the dhcp on the comcast device so that it will only ever assign 1 ip address? This should mean that its dhcp server just won't respond to any requests for ip's from clients after its 1 ip has been assigned, leaving the airport to do all the work. I know this would mean that you have 2 dhcp servers on the same network which I'm sure you know isn't advisable in most situations, but hopefully this will be as good as not having the comcast box do dhcp. In this situation,that 1 device could be the airport. Technically the airport wouldn't have a static ip in as much as its lease would expire every now and again and it would request a new ip from the comcast device, but if the scope of the dhcp is set to 192.168.0.2 / 192.168.0.2, it wouldn't be possible for the airport to ever get anything other than .0.2. Doesn't really solve the nat issue though, let us know if you find a solution. On 11/07/2011, Scott Howell scottn3...@gmail.com wrote: Mike, the goal was not to complicate anything.

That may very well end up being necessary in the end; however, before I do so, I wanted to ask if anyone had any thoughts. I did a little searching around on Google, but unfortunately I'm not sure exactly what to look for either. I don't think Google would take my message as a search term either. :) Although I do not have any plans to do this, the advantage of double nat in this case is I could strap three more routers onto the gateway (SMC) and have some fun. Now maybe there is a way around all of this, but seems the current issue is IP6 tunneling, but I am more concerned if this could pose problems with other services. So, thoughts welcome and I'll keep poking around and see what I can learn. The good thing is that all seems to be working for the most part, so this is not a critical need situation.

Re: complex networking question (double nating)
Scott, If I've understood you correctly, the comcast device is doing dhcp for all of the computers on the network, but the computers are actually connecting through the airport; you're wanting to make the comcast box act just as a modem and nothing else because of the airports ip reservation features? You're also having problems with the 2 nats and setting up vpn? I *think* the first problem would be quite easy to sort out. I'd start by turning dhcp off on the comcast box and just make the airport do it for the comcast box and all the other devices on the network; this should give you back the control that you don't have on the comcast box. As far as port forwarding through 2 nats, can both the comcast and airport do port forwarding? If so, assuming that every ip is static, have you tried forwarding the ports on the airport and then forwarding the ports on the comcast box so that when someone connects from the outside on the desired port, the chain would look like: some outside computer the internet your isp comcast set to port forward to the airport airport set to port forward to the machine?

Re: Usb or NAS revisited
Hi, I'll answer this on list since people are wanting to use iTunes with a nas. Like any other nas, the linkstations have a web interface that lets you control its features and setup shares. It does have some client software for pc and mac, but it doesn't really do that much; all it does on windows is map a drive for easier access. It has a dlan server, which is pretty much like home sharing except it works with more media players, but I'm not sure if it works with iTunes out of the box. As I said, if you're up for a bit of a hack, you can get it to run debian which is much more flexable than the stock firmware, so you should be able to get something sorted that way. Note that sometimes if you flash the firmware it will for some reason switch languages to japanese which can take a bit of time to change, but you shouldn't have to do this if you purchase one with the drives included. Remember to double check iTunes compatibility before you buy it; I would check but I'm not running the stock firmware.

Re: NAS or USB?
Get a nas. Chris is correct in saying that you can just share a usb drive, but most nas units come with other desirable features like an http downloader, bit torrent support, ftp server, dlan server and iTunes support. You're basicly getting a very small (But probably not as small as the mini to be fair) low power (but still capable) computer. I have a buffalo Linkstation which I grabbed on eBay without any drives for just over £20 but you can still by them new. If you buy one and are feeling adventurus you can install debian on it and then, you can do pretty much anything you could ever want on it - mines even acted as a mail server for a couple of days. One other thing to remember is that if you use a USB drive shared using the mini on a gigabit lan, you could start to notice the usb bottlenec but essentially, if you don't mind leaving a computer on all of the time, get a usb drive, but once you buy a nas, you'll never want to have it any other way.

The Mac can share out the drive as an SMB volumen (Windows file share) so you should be able to get to everything on it from the PC just as easily. Another thing to consider is how reliable the storage has to be. If the drive fails, what is the impact. Will you have to re-rip all your CDs and such? For me right now it's not that critical but I've been thinking about going to a Drobo down the road if the 500GB drive I have now fills up. The Drobo has slots for multiple hard drives and it mirrors the data across them. If one of the drives fails it transparently continues on with the remaining drives. When the failed drive is replaced the mirroring is reconstructed. I think the smallest 4-slot version is about $300 empty. That also means I can add capacity over time and eventually retire older smaller drives, if they don't fail first. Of course this doesn't help if the Drobo is knocked off the table or whatever. So it might still make sense to have backups. My drive is mostly rips of media so while I'd hate to waste the time doing all that again, it's not irreplaceable.

Re: average ram for a blind user?
That sounds like a problem with disk io, not a lack of ram. Problem is, if there is one fairly technical computer word that consumers are aware of, its ram, so shops / people who don't really know what they're talking about suggest a ram upgrade for everything. I would be willing to put money on the problem going away or not happening as much if you went from a 5400RPM drive to a 7200RPM or an SSD, assuming we're talking about a laptop.

Now I will admitt, that apple is a little pricy when it comes to ram, but there are third party sellers out there with compatible memory for just about any system. Thoughts?

Of course, she can answer for herself, but I helped make the decision. you say you upgraded your iMac, and you are pleased with the results, how much did you have in the past, what speed of RAM, which Mac do you have, what bus speed, what processor, how fast was the spin speed on your hard drive, what cache level etc. This is a 2011-model iMac withan I5 quad-core and a 500 gb 7200 RPM hard drive. We bought it with the extra RAM. you are implying that the pure RAM improvement made this difference, but the implication is that you had a perfect machine and that the RAM slowed things down, you may have had a lesser machine, and the RAM made things better for you. Actually, she didn't imply this. She actually said: I upgraded my iMac to 8gigs of ram and I am not sorry in the learst. This is not to say that she would have been unhappy with 4 gb of RAM, just that she's happy she opted to buy the extra 4 gb. It is quite possible that a recent iMac will operate just fine on 4 gb of RAM for the foreseeable future. But macs are not cheap. As things are, we could not really afford to make this purchase, but we did because another computer died and we felt it was time to make the switch. As such, we felt that 8 gb of RAM would future-proof the machine as much as possible without being a major expense. It's worth remembering that the iMac by default comes with 4 gb of RAM. Yes, it also comes wiht Garage Band and iMovie Maker, and quite possibly that 4 gb of RAM is to accommodate these sorts of software. But the fact is that it does ship with it and we use VoiceOver on top of these things. Someone already mentioned the system requirements for Lion. I can't help but wonder how much RAM the 2012 or 2013 era iMacs will ship with. I guess my view is that if you can afford the upgrade and plan to get the most out of your mac, there's no harm in doing it. Certainly it won't harm anything. If things are running fine and you can't really justify the expense, don't worry about it for now.

I know most of you don't play video games, but if you heard it on the radio, you'd know that Sony's Playstation Network has been down for the past month. As it was down, people were concerned about identity thef, because the reason why it was down is because someone hacked into the network.

Re: Advice on opening Imac
Send it to Apple, especially if its still under warranty. The iMac will probably have a compartment that lets you access the ram; perhaps even the harddrive and the airport card, but without looking at the mac in person, I'm fairly sure that you'd be needing to remove the motherboard or logic board in order to really get at the sd card slot.

Re: accessible install of snow leopard in VMWare Player
Hey, I've done quite a few hackintoshes in my time, all of which from memory have needed sighted help to get up and running. I mainly make hackintoshes on desktops that have been built for that exact purpose - E.G. picking a compatible motherboard and CPU. this has made things much easier. The basic method is: Build a box with components that other people have got to work. Usually, ahci needs to be disabled in the bios. Boot the box using boot132. Once boot132 has booted, insert snow leopard. Cary out the snow leopard install with sighted help and restart the machine. Boot to boot132. Boot into the osx install. Install a bunch of packages from places like ihackintosh to get stuff working such as audio, ethernet and propper video. Also install something that allows osx to boot without boot132. Thats pretty much it. When ever I do them, I always try and base the install from a retail dvd for maximum stability. The one exception was when I installed snow leopard on my Samsung NC10 which required a modified version which had been created for the MSI Wind line of netbooks. Like I say, its not really something that you would want to be doing every day and its not really for the faint hearted. Having said this, if you plan ahead and make sure your hardware is supported, you get a great hackintosh that runs just like a normal mac.

Re: couple hard ware questions
It really doesn't sound like a quad is required in this situation. If someones doing the type of work where a quad would come in useful, they will probably have some idea that they require the extra cores. Obveously the quad will perform better doing audio and video coupled with an ssd, but for every day stuff, theres really no need for a quad. On 24/03/2011, Frank Carmickle fr...@carmickle.com wrote: Hello The new mac book pro is a dual core i7 in the 13 inch and a quad core in the 15 and 17 inch models. Deciding between the 13 and the 15, dual and quad core, will make quite a bit of difference. Other than that I wouldn't worry about it. Moving up to 8 gb of memory is something worth doing for sure. The solid state disk makes all the difference in the world. You should determine what you want to do with the machine. Let that drive your choice of machine. If you are going to be writing documents, sending mail, browsing the web and using iTunes than a upgraded mac book air would be the least expensive way to get great performance. If you need a bit more processing power for audio recording, editing and mixing or photo editing than the 13 or 15 inch mac book pro would be the way to go. Solid state disks really make a difference and you get one by default in the mac book air. The minimum amount of memory one should have in a computer with 10.6 is 4 gb in my opinion.

Re: Finally got Boot Camp going, but now more trouble
Perhaps I'm missing something, but surely you can just ethernet it up to see if you need to download any updates? On 19/03/2011, Brent Harding bhard...@doorpi.net wrote: Hi there. After taking my 13-inch Macbook to a little shop a friend of dad knew of, they finally got Boot Camp and XP going on this somewhat older white Macbook. One of the major problems, well, the only thing I've noticed so far is that no matter how I reconfigure my router, the wifi either times out connecting or says that I might be out of range. If I'm across the room from the thing, it better not be out of range because if I hit connect on other ones I have no clue who owns them, those will ask me for the password. The strange thing is that my own wifi works fine booting up from Snow Leopard, but not XP. I tried lowering security all the way down to WEP as believe it or not, all the other routers according to the network table in the airport thingy say WEP in them, how aweful from a security standpoint but I don't know who owns any of them to get into temporarily to download some updates and see if that solves this. At the place I live at, doubt anyone would know their SSID because they're all non-descript, some 2-wire and numbers, one real long and random one and a cellular-connected one through a local provider, so wouldn't know who to ask permission from if they knew the default keys. With mine, there's 5 in total I can see from here, but the one that refuses to ask for a key has to be mine. I have Charter for Internet, and my modem is a SMCD3GN Docsis 3 Wireless gateway, all the latest and greatest from what I can tell, even with gigabit hardwired ports. How do I force this thing to take on the XP install on my Macbook? I really have to wonder if these modems do Mac address registration and OS analysis. It lets MacOSX on without a hitch, but when I reboot to XP it says I'm out of range almost immediately or it sits there as long as you can wait like a firewall would respond if it's decided the answer is no. Is there a way I can reset what my gateway thinks about the Mac address for the laptop so that it will allow the XP side on? I wonder then if it will forbid OSX? I don't even know if that shop downloaded that 300 mb update there is to the Boot Camp drivers, at least there was when I installed those into a demo of fusion. Is there a way to download them with a PC and install via USB stick since I can't find an open network? If not, what kind of 2Wire Docsis 3 modem can I buy myself to replace this thing, figuring if I have my own, this silly detection won't be there? I suppose if I convinced Charter to send another one, I have to be careful to connect wirelessly with the windows side first and see if it then locks Mac out, but I'd rather not go through that mess.

Re: Jailbreaking and some solutions?

Re: Jailbreaking and some solutions?
Pdanet (The hotspot app) is pretty handy to be fair. I'm lucky that my 3gs is old enough that it can work untethered - I don't really like the idea of my phone rebooting for what ever reason only to find that at best some of the apps won't work or at worst that it won't boot at all.

Re: Jail breaking an IPhone 4 from a blind perspective, can't find the thread
Assuming your on 4.2, jailbreak on the iPhone 4 is tethered at the moment, meaning that when ever your phone reboots, assuming that you want to run jailbreak apps, you'll have to rejailbreak the phone from a computer. Even if you don't want to run any jailbreak apps, safari will crash every time you open it if you don't run the tool. In other words its really not worth it.

Re: Apple screwing iPhone users to block them from opening the hardware they paid for.
Scott. Whilst I do agree with you, I feel that in this situation, Apple did make the right choice by making there iPhones harder to take apart. You talk about computer repair. When you ran the shop, did you ever get someone who tried to upgrade or fix the computer themselves? Did you ever find that it ended up quite a bit worse because of the attempted fix? Now, picture a really small device, with lots of surface mounted components inside it - those components that are removable will be connected via ribbon cables. I don't know if you've ever encountered a ribbon cable, but you can't mess about with these things if you want them to work after. Lets be honest. If someone has the required knolige to fix an iPhone, it would be a trivial matter for them to research the correct tools needed to open the device. Whilst I do agree that the way that companies protect there devices is getting slightly over the top, what sort of crazy mods do you think people would be able to come up with for the iPhone? Do you think that people would be able to uncover a secret dipswitch and suddenly be able to overclock there cpu's by 200%? I do intend to open my 3gs soon to replace the glass and the battery, but I know that if I break it, it's my fault. Do you remember those old dell optiplex machines from 10 12 years ago where the cases were a nightmare to remove? That wasn't to stop the hardcore geek from upgrading there hardware, it was to stop the kind of person who would break there computer by attempting an upgrade from upgrading it and lets be honest, there are quite a few of those people. As a side note (and I'm more than happy to take this off list if you want), as a total, did you ever find a way to replace capacitors on motherboards in the repair shop? I've been investigating component level repairs on both desktop and laptop boards and would be interested in speaking with people who can replace dc jacks, usb ports, capacitors and people who are able to reflow the nvidia gpu's that suffered from cracked solder due to overheating.

I would like to begin by saying that I feel the topic is certainly news worthy. Furthermore I am quite disturbed at how readily folks on this list are willing to just bow to the omnipotent Corporation looking out for our well being. I feel that Apple is only protecting its bottom line and that is where it begins and ends. Fifty years ago the Sears catalog included schematics so that one could self troubleshoot issues whit products that were sold in their catalog. Today we have covers to cover covers, layering the electronics and mechanical parts of our cars and hundreds of other devices that we use every day. As an American I love our traditional spirit of adventure and personal independence to take a product designed or meant for one purpose and transform it into something completely beyond what it was designed for. In pushing this envelope we have been a market leader and produced some of the sharpest minds in our century. I know for a fact that a few funky shaped screws are not going to stop the people that I am describing. I am objecting with the status quo, and the consensus of the people on this list. Before I went blind I was a Heavy equipment Mechanic. Whenever I would hear about situations like the one outlined I would be frustrated. We have an amazing amount of competent electronic specialists who would not bat an eye at removing the back of their iPhone to do a minor repair. I am a ham radio operator and that spirit is certainly alive and flourishing. The amount of money that folks with these skills are saving by doing their own repairs, are nothing short of amazing. When I owned a computer store and we would frequently have computers come in where their capacitors had dried out and exploded. This action is so dramatic, that when my friend and business partner who happened to be one of these skilled electronic technicians that you are saying have no business tinkering around in a iphone, would replace the capacitors. Our customers would think that he had performed nothing short of a miracle. Along those same lines I had dropped my BN PK and the cards had become dislodged. He simply reseated them and I went on my way. The company had just charged me 250.00 for new batteries. He researched it in four minutes and could have replaced them for me for 18.00. How much do you think that Humanware would have charged for reseating my cards, not to mention the time. Please do not tell me that this is not news worthy, because it certainly is.

Re: Apple to Remove the Home Button from Future iPads and iPhones?
I was thinking about that as well actually. The only way I can see it working is if your fumb is at the bottom of the screen and your other 4 fingers are at the top. Even then, it doesn't sound overly smooth. I do like the idea of controling multitasking using jestures though; I always thought that the app switcher could have been a bit better ad that it could load a bit faster come to think of it.

Re: What could make an internal hard drive suddenly decide to die?
What an interesting problem! First of all, I'd make sure that you have a complete backup of everything just incase. It seems like the drive is malfunctioning on both reads and writes, but it's not like using torrents or opening music in itunes is putting a large amount of strain on the drive, surely booting would stress the thing more? Are you sure that the drive is actually spinning down? How functional is the rest of the os? Would it be possible to put the drive in a usb enclosure, boot to osx, use it for a couple of days like that and see how well things work?

The reason I suggested using usb was so that we could rule out the motherboard and so that if the os was for some very strange reason sending ata commands to power the drive down it wouldn't be able to since you can't do that over usb. At any rate, storage is really cheap these days, so if you don't mind playing with internals, you could just put a new drive in there and see what happens. Chances are it'll be a 5400RPM drive in there atm, so you will see a performance boost if you go up to a 7200.

What could cause the hard drive to do this? This happens when i use ITunes or µTorrent to get files. Can you strain a hard drive too much? It's not a question of energy saving either since i have the hard drives set to not shut down at all.

Re: Apple Seeds iOS 4.3 Beta to Developers
Lets be honest, the fast speech bug probably isn't going to be fixed. I've noticed and perhaps it's just me beeing picky, but apples bug pattern for ios goes something like: Release new version of ios. Fix 1 or 2 bugs that were introduced in the previous version. Introduce a few more. Repeat. Don't get me wrong, ios is probably the best operating system for a phone that there is, but accessibility must have got hundreds of emails from us about that fast speech bug, so I'm not hopefull.

Re: Hopeful news on the future accessibility of Star Breed, a Science Fiction gamebook for iOS
This game sounds awesome! Hopefully everything will work out, although perhaps a very gentle email every couple of months might not go a miss just to see how / if things are working out. Infact, I'd probably go as far as saying that based on your description, this sounds like it could become my favourite ios game.

Possible outcomes either you could probably die, get injured, get critically injured, etc. Since i paid $2.99 for this app, I was slightly disappointed that the battles weren't playable, as that's what makes up most of the game, besides telling a sweet story in the process. Right now, all we can do is read the introduction and start what I think is a tutorial. The problem? You have to hack the security of a Tank, where it becomes unplayable. Was surprised to get a response back. Took a few days, but here it is. P.S. Anyone know how to contact EA Mobile?

Being blind, text based games are a great way to pass the time since very little graphics are involved. In the case of Star Breed, using VoiceOver it was difficult to get through the first two intro screens or so, but I figured it out eventually. The part where I get stuck though is when I have to help an engineer with a Tank. When I jack in, I see a screen that says security threat detected or something like that, with something that says chip timer sequence and medium. When I double-tap either one of those, the VoiceOver gesture for click, nothing happens. Is there possibly anything you can do to make this accessible for VoiceOver blind users? The story parts are great, but so far I'm unable to hack to get passed this tank thing. Love the music I've heard both in the main menu and in the game, on the intro and getting briefed, hope there's a few more tracks. And I hope you guys can somehow make this accessible so my money would be well spent and I can continue the game. Thank you.

Re: ITunes not properly updating podcasts
Note: this post is a bit windows orientated; for some reason I thought you'd sent this to viphone, but I'm sending it anyway in the hope that it may help others as well. John, I've also had this happen and it's really really annoying. Unlike you, I like to download / sync my podcasts every morning while I shower so that there on my iPhone for the rest of the day, so this tends to be a huge problem. I've actually given up on using iTunes for podcasts and have switched over to juice. I'm not sure if it's the best podcatcher out there these days since I've stuck with it for a few years now or if theres a mac version come to think of it, but it always seems to do the job. Heres where things start to get interesting though. I like things to be as seemless as possible, especially in the mornings, so I had to figgure out a easy way for the podcasts to be downloaded via juice and then imported into my iTunes library more or less automaticly. So, heres how I have everything set up. You should be able to duplicate this using apple script but I can't provide any examples I'm afraid. 1: Juice downloads my podcasts when ever it wants to; this is usually with in minutes of them being uploaded. They then get saved in the automaticly add to itunes library folder. It would be great if iTunes would simply add all of these files to it's library, but alas, that would be too simple. Itunes only adds files that are in the root of the automaticly add to itunes folder, completely disregarding any sub folders. This is a problem since juice makes a sub folder for each podcast that I'm subscribed to. 2: I wrote a batch script that inspects the automaticly add to itunes folder and any sub folders that exist with in it. The script grabs all the mp3's that are in the different sub folders and moves them to the root of the automaticly add to itunes folder after which, the now empty sub folders automaticly get deleeted. This is set to run every morning, just before I get up. It was a bit of a pain to set up, but it actually works quite well now. I always get my podcasts and everything is done automaticly. Hope that helped someone. Ben. On 09/01/2011, John D. Lipsey johnl1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi list: I've now had this happen twice.

The non closing dialog really does make it sound like a ip issue. I don't know the mac command, but I'd try an ipconfig /release then an ipconfig /renew on both computers.

Re: jailbreaking?
I'd echo what Jim has said. There are quite a few apps that you can download that are accessible, but since there are so many apps floating around, it's probably best that you tell us what you are wanting to do then we can advise you. Bare in mind that the steps for jailbreaking are going to vairy based on the device that you own.

Re: The iPad 2?
It already has the a4 cpu in it which is working out very well for speed and battery life, so I don't really see why they would want to change this, although as you said, we'll probably see a ram increase. I'd considder purchasing it if we had standard usb and an sd card reader, but until then, I'll stick to my android tablet thanks.

Re: The iPad 2?
Since the a4 seems to have been designed exclusively for apple products, I would argu that given the cost of research and development, they probably won't have scene a big enough return on there investment to start killing it a year after they first announced it. Plus, they can do other things to the iPad to make it run faster - e.g. ram or nand flash upgrades. On 08/12/2010, Ricardo Walker rwalker...@gmail.com wrote: Are you serious? Isn't that just the natural progression of computers. The next generation is almost always faster and more efficient. The only reason to change is because what they can put in it now is better than what they had at their finger tips last year. No more reason is needed.

I don't really like replying when I don't know the exact answer, but you could always take the format part out of the answer file. Mine sits at the partitions screen waiting for me to do something.

Re: confirming apple tv has vo support
From wikipedia: Apple TV is a digital media receiver made and sold by Apple Inc. It is a small form factor network appliance designed to play IPTV digital content originating from the iTunes Store, Netflix, YouTube, Flickr, MobileMe or any Mac OS X or Windows computer running iTunes onto an enhanced-definition or high-definition widescreen television. Apple offered a preview of the device in September 2006 and began shipping it the following March.[1] It initially shipped with a 40GB hard disk; a 160GB version was introduced two months later and the earlier model was ultimately discontinued. In September 2010, Apple announced a second-generation version of the Apple TV. About a quarter of the size and one-third of the price of the original Apple TV, the new device can stream rented content from iTunes and video from computers or iOS devices via AirPlay.[2] The new version has no hard drive; however, it does have 8 gigabytes of flash storage for caching purposes.[3] All content is drawn from online or locally connected sources.

If you don't bring your laptop anywhere and if you generally use it on a desk, there's probably no good reason for choosing an Air. And if you've got the need for a Firewire port or something else that the MBA doesn't have, or if you are constantly using some application that requires blazing fast processor speed, the Air might not be the most logical computer for you.

Re: I think I may have made a $99 mistake...
I've included the message below. I'm hoping that the jailbreak community will inadvertantly make things better for us at some point. Larry Wanger lsw...@gmail.com 30 September 2010 23:00 I sent the following note to Apple Accessibility. No Voice Over on the ATV and the remote app is rendered on the iPhone and iPad such that it can not really be used either. Things will improve somewhat with Airplay once implemented but not entirely. I hope others will consider writing as well. Hi, I want to share my displeasure with Apple as I’ve just learned that the new Apple TV product does not currently offer any kind of access to blind and low vision television viewers through implementation of Voice Over. I learned of this by calling and speaking with a sales representative at Apple who checked with one of your engineers to find out if accessibility features were built in to the product. Whether Apple recognizes it or not, blind and low vision people enjoy watching television and movies as well and Apple has unfortunately missed out on an opportunity to continue to be a leader in this important area of technology. While I was somewhat surprised to learn the actual Apple TV box did not offer Voice Over, I was even more surprised to learn that the newly updated remote app fails to provide a meaningful solution. Had Apple implemented the remote app for the ATV in the same way that it has allowed end users to use Airtunes I suspect things would have been different. Recall that the remote app essentially rendered the user’s iTunes library, showing music, podcasts and other media content. The user could scroll through content and choose what to play. Best of all, Voice Over worked well with this app. A similar implementation would have offered an accessible solution. Beyond this, my understanding of the technical specifications of the ATV would indicate that the box itself should have enough horse power to handle the same implementation of Voice Over that we currently enjoy on other Apple products. I also would be remiss if I did not mention the recent passage and pending presidential signing of the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act. One of the provisions of this legislation is the requirement for industry to develop set-top boxes that offer accessibility features for blind and low vision users. While this has happened after Apple developed this product, I mention it in hopes that Apple will consider being a leader in this area by making its new ATV accessible in the near future. Please know that like so many others, I am very appreciative of Apple’s efforts and leadership by including Voice Over on the iPhone, iPad and other products. However, it seems that Voice Over could have been implemented on this device as well. I look forward to being able to purchase and use the new Apple TV in the future.

Re: XCode compile.
Geoff, My understanding is that whilst you are able to code in xcode, running the program in the iPhone simulator will not be accessible. The suggested workaround is to sign up to the developer program, although $100 does seem a little bit steep to here vo say hello world. If you have jailbroken your phone however, I'm fairly sure that you would be able to put it onto the iPhone without having to pay apple. The ipa's (applications) that are on your phone are all signed y apple. Once you sign up to the program, I'm assuming apple will sign your ipa's there by allowing them onto your phone. However, if you have jailbroken, you can install an app called AppSync which will let your phone run unsigned ipa's. Sorry it's not the exact answer; I just thought I'd let you know about what you might encounter before you start.

The developer site indicates that XCode is included with Snow Leopard, however I don't see it recursing into the application or library folders. I did see folders for sample scripts and a few programming languages in the library folder, but am giving up and thought I'd ask here for help getting going with XCode. TIA for any pointers.

Re: New Apple TV runs IOS 4.1
If people come out with some cool hacks for the thing, I'll be more than happy to buy one, report on it's accessibility and then if the worse comes to the worse, I could just sell it again since the resale value on apple products is huge.

Re: New Apple TV runs IOS 4.1
I wonder if the remote app is advanced enough to let you purchase content for the tv? What's the point in having an app that will let you control the tv when it doesn't have any content on it? One solution could be to link an itunes library stored on a computer to the tv, purchase the program on the computer and then view it on the tv, but I'm just guessing here and I'm not even sure if apple will let you do this. Who fancies buying one to find out exactly how accessible they are? On 29/09/2010, Sarah Alawami marri...@gmail.com wrote: Well here hear is my second failed attempt.

I would suggest being in the sources table before hitting add anew library on the remote app. Then remember if your devices is connect to your computer that you will see 2 names. For example, Ricardo's iPhone followed by the battery percentage, and Ricardo's iPhone followed by the word sources. This is the one you need to be on in the sources table. Then tab twice and you will here unknown. Now type in the 4 digit code displayed on your device in the remote app. You will then be able to brows and control your iTunes library via your Remote app. hth On Sep 28, 2010, at 11:18 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: Actually the code for itunes for the remote is changed.
