Since notifications on iOS demand your attention by blocking what you?re doing until you click either ?Cancel? or ?View?, it can get annoying if you receive a notification every two minutes. Luckily, there is a way to disable notifications on a per-app basis. In order to change which apps can send you notifications, open your device?s Settings app, then tap Notifications. In here, you?ll find a list of all the apps you have installed which are able to send notifications, as well as a switch to turn off all notifications at once. However, I don?t recommend killing all notifications, since you?ll probably want important ones, such as those from to-do list apps to remind you of deadlines, to stil show up. To edit what notifications a certain app will send, tap its name in the list. You?ll see up to three switches ? Sounds, Alerts and Badges ? depending on what options the app supports. From here you can choose how you?d like the app?s notifications to behave. Alerts is the option you?ll want to switch off if you?d like to stop the blue message boxes appearing. Badges determines whether an app should show a number badge (in a red circle) on its home screen icon. And sounds, as the name implies, controls whether or not you?ll get an auditory notice when a new notification arrives. In my opinion, for an application which isn?t important, the best thing to do is turn off alerts and sounds, and just leave badges on. That way, you?ll still be able to tell which apps need your attention by glancing at their icons, but they won?t pester you with alert messages. I much prefer the iOS experience without having to tap on a blue message box every three minutes. Adding the option to turn them off was a good decision on Apple?s part, and one that it pays to know how to use.

I mainly bought it because I wanted VO keys on the right side of my space bar. Not having these on my Mac Book and Blue tooth keyboard slowed me down and led to many hand tangles trying to press keys. I also wanted to try out the keyboard commander on the num pad. I suspected I would find it a good experience but I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I have. Advantages: Having VO keys available to the right hand makes a big difference in entering commands. For example doing a search with VO F is much easier. Also, the typing experience over all seems easier and faster for me on the full size board. The num pad commander works very well and I like the fact that I can assign many of the keys as I like However, I did notice a few things about the commander. I noticed that if I hold down the shift key and then use the num pad commander I get additional commands that are not listed in the VO Utility on the table showing commands. They are there but not assignable. Also there are other commands that happen when holding down the option key. When holding down Control I can press number 5 and make a mouse click. I don't remember reading about any of these key commands. I find the additional power useful. Finally, there are three keys on the top right above the keyboard commander. When I use Keyboard help nothing is said when I press them. Does anyone know what these three keys are? How can they be made useful? finally the period on the num pad is supposed to be Escape but apparently it only works as escape when not combined with VO. Thus I can't use VO escape to get out of some menus. Do others experience this? I hope these observations help others using a full size keyboard or possibly others might find using a full size keyboard would improve their Voice Over experience.

But I can give you a good idea of why Gordon finds it so advantageous. For a start, you can proof-read what you type in, for instance, Pages documents or emails before you commit them to either messages or to files where you want them. In fact, most anything that you can do with speech on the iOS devices, you can do with Braille. Unlike Talks where I am given to understand Braille support is patchie at best, on iOS devices it works all the time and with your localised language. Gordon can also partially control the iPad and iPhone via Braille using the router keys on his display. I don't know which display you have, but the Humanware ones work really well. All I can say in summary is that, if you get the opportunity to do so, try Braille on an iPad, iPad II or iPhone 4. I'm sure you will be impressed.

Admittedly, rar seems to be pretty good at squeezing out those few extra percent of compression for a file, which is why I use it, but it's commenting abilities aren't unique. _______________________________________________ To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access at mac-access.net You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at: The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free!

Today is Worldwide Backup Day, when we celebrate taking precautions so as not to lose data (well worth celebrating). The best backup strategies take a layered approach to provide different levels of protection. I?m going to focus on three layers for protecting your Mac: online, nearline, and offsite backups. Online Backup Online backup refers to copies of files that are directly accessible. Some examples of online backup would be copying files to USB thumbsticks or an external hard drive, and cloning a drive with Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. Online backup is convenient because you don?t need any additional software to get access to the backup files and you save the time that would be spent on restoring files from some other type of backup archive. Cloning is particularly good for system drives because you can boot up your computer and get to work right away instead of waiting to reinstall everything or restore files from a backup archive like you would with Time Machine. Examples:USB thumbdriveExternal hard driveSuperDuper! cloneNearline Backup Nearline backups are usually saved in an archive format that is saved to storage that is directly attached to the computer, or available on the same local area network. Nearline backups use additional software to manage the copies and provide some additional benefits like compression, incremental updates, versioning of files, and maybe even centralized administration and security. The disadvantage of nearline backups is that you can?t boot from them if your startup disk is down and you can?t directly access the files if you take the backup drive to another machine. Time Machine is the most familiar example for Mac users, but other software like Retrospect can be used this way too. Examples:Time MachineRetrospectTape drivesOffsite Backup Offsite backups are simply copies that are stored in another physical location from the computer. The purpose of offsite backup is to protect you in the case of fire, theft, or some other disastrous event like a lightning strike or flood that would destroy both the computer and the backup storage next to it. Offsite backups, by nature of being physically removed, take time to recover and restore and are really only there for catastrophes. You can rotate physical drives offsite, use cloud backup service like CrashPlan or a filesync service like Dropbox. Examples:Second Time Machine driveCloned driveCrashPlanDropboxThese different layers can be combined to provide you with the right amount of protection for your needs. Here are three ways that a casual, moderate and hardcore user might implement online, nearline and offsite backup for their important files. Casual OnlineCopy your most critical files to a USB thumb drive. Repeat this process every quarter.NearlineBuy an external hard drive and turn on Time Machine.OffsiteTake a second USB thumb drive with critical files to work.Get a free gmail account and email an encrypted disk image (use Disk Utility) of your files to yourself (don?t forget the password!).Get a free Dropbox account and copy up to 2 GB of files.Moderate OnlineClone your system drive to an external hard drive with SuperDuper! Update your clone at the beginning of every month.NearlineUse Time Capsule for automatic network backup. If you have a laptop, don?t underestimate the convenience of having Time Machine just run while your computer is on without having to remember to plug anything in.OffsiteBuy more storage from Dropbox or?Sign up for CrashPlan, possibly the best cloud backup service for Mac usersHardcore OnlineClone your system drive to two different eternal hard drives with SuperDuper! Take one clone off site and rotate them every week.NearlineTime Machine with Time Capsule.OffsiteCrashPlanDropbox in addition to CrashplanSecond cloned driveIf you?re really, really hardcore, set up a second Time Machine drive and rotate that offsite as well. You will have to manually switch drives in Time Machine preferences each time you rotate the drives.Whatever your level of preparedness (or paranoia), there?s a backup strategy for you. Take a little time this Worldwide Backup Day to choose one and implement it before you have a reason to regret putting it off any longer. http://bit.ly/hj82eJ From marrie12 at gmail.com Fri Apr 1 02:52:54 2011 From: marrie12 at gmail.com (Sarah Alawami) Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2011 18:52:54 -0700 Subject: How to extract media files from your iPod or iOS device Message-ID: This is a good read and there are a lot of tips here.

This might cause less grief for me. Apple's Mail and Gmail don't get along very well, as anyone who has tried to use the latter with the former knows. They each take very different approaches to managing e-mail, but with a little configuring and planning, you can work out the kinks. http://bit.ly/ed3uVG From marrie12 at gmail.com Fri Apr 1 03:07:20 2011 From: marrie12 at gmail.com (Sarah Alawami) Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2011 19:07:20 -0700 Subject: Mac 911: Directly downloading iOS 4.3 updates Message-ID: I wonder why apple does not tell us this? read more at the bottom.

Well, it seems that you have to turn on Quick nav to do this which I find very strange, actually. I'm guessing this is probably a bug, though, but I'd like to know if anyone can reproduce this. Also, since iOS 4.3.1 it seems like it's become more unstable and introduced some new bugs.

Interestingly enough, it looks like it didn't put the subject where it said it'd put it. This is pretty disturbing, after all, and rather worrying in my opinion. Hopefully, changing the subject to what it should have been will take care of that. If not, then I'm sorry for making it worse. Of course this is not Gmail, and I'm not terribly familiar with how Mac OS X Server handles mailing lists, but I hope this works anyway.

Just select the key you'd like to assign the function to, (maybe the 9 key with the shift key selected) then simply click on the pop-up, and scroll down until you find the next item on html (or whatever it's called, you'll find next item, next web item, so be sure you select the right one). Then when you press shift 9, it will advance to the next item on the web page. (I'm on the tiger machine at the moment, which does not have numpad commander, so can't give exact namings.) hth.

When you are on the field that describes the function for the NumPad Commander key you wish to assign, and VO-Space to bring up the menu options, arrow down past "Web" to "Find", VO-Space to access the sub-menu and navigate to "Find next control". These options for navigating to headings and controls in web pages are grouped under "Find". I'll also mention as an aside that we've discovered that you can run the unmodified NumPad Commander definitions on a a Mac laptop if you have NumPad Commander enabled and press the corresponding number key on the top row of number keys while holding down an arrow key. This includes the "-" and "=" key on that same row. (There's a discussion in last year's archives with posts by Anne and myself.) Also, Edovia's "NumPad -- Wireless Numeric Keypad" app for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad works with the NumPad Commander definitions, including with modifiers. HTH.

Travis, Your comments helped as I didn't understand that in the utilities by selecting the modifier key I was accessing more commands without disrupting the commands that were available in the No modifier category. This opens up a lot more power and flexibility. Two related questions. I'm still wondering if anyone knows what the three keys at the top right are as Keyboard help does not read them. Also, Travis mentioned a Incert key, is there such a thing on this full size Apple Keyboard? Where?

Scroll across until you get to [allow vo to be controlled by applescripts] and check it! Then go back to the table of items and interact with it! Scroll down to commanders and stop interacting! Next scroll to keyboard tab and select it! Then choose which option key you might like to use [ it might be set on the right one] or you might prefer the left one! Then after that there is a table of items which you can add to! You should see in there a few already [like] option+m for mail option+s for safari and option+t for the current time! And a couple of others! When you are ready you can set your own! Like I've got right option+g to open Skype and option+z to toggle between dom and group on the net! So if you go to the add button and select it! You'll be given a place to put the letter you wish to use! next to that is a menu of commands you can choose from! I chose to select items for my left hand hence g for skype! But as for which keys I think any 1 to 0 and a to z! So have a look through the menu of commands to see which ones might be of use to you!

In which case I couldn't afford it in the 1st place having to get funding for it. But on the plus side of things I do have an apple product and that is an Ipod Nano 4th Genaration and I love it! One thing I really want for the later models is for apple to support male voices I'm not being sexist or anything like that but because I have a hearing inparment as well as being blind I find I can understand the male voices of TTS more understandable compared to female ones. LOL I have emailed apple at accessibility.com about it on a few times but as of yet I haven't heard nothing on it.

This is because I was worried that I wouldn't get use to a Mac computer with voiceover. Not only that but I question myself would the money be worth spending? Yes, the money would definitely be worth spending, in my opinion. This is because for Blind users, buying a Mac does not require you to buy extra software just to use your new computer. Secondly, if or when you get a Mac, you need to approach it with an open mind. I know it seems obvious, but Mac OS X is not Windows and Voice Over is not JAWS. You'd be amazed at the number of folks I've spoken to since moving to the Mac in 2005-6 that expect the status quo. If possible, try to look at this as a new adventure and a chance to grow. Maybe you remember what it was like for you when you first experienced Windows and JAWS. Because you had never used a computer or Screen Reader before, you had no pre-conceptions or expectations. You'll find the transition a heck of lot easier if you apply this to using Mac OS X.

I am loving every moment i work with it, so I also say "Hello to this exciting world of Mac!" I had made the decision to jump off boat from Windows not only for economic reasons, but for pragmatic ones. I stay here in Zimbabwe where we do no't have any accessibility software companies to talk off. While computers are bought like hot buns, it is unfortunate that we tend to be left behind by this development. I once used an old licence of JAWS and more recently NVDA, but I used to find my regular crashes and hangups frustrating. Not to talk of viruses and other pests. However, I think Mac is not only the best because of Voiceover, but the way the OS runs really blows the world apart. I was motivated to get a Mac by some podcasts made by Mike Arigo and Dane Trethowan on Blindcooltech. They answer most of the doubts one may have on Mac OS 10.xx. You can also try reading some literature from Apple on accessibility before getting a new computer. There are also other great podcasts prepared by David Woodbridge from Australia. Once after learning all this, it won't require another nudge for you to jump into the exciting fray. Of course you have to unlearn a few Windows habits, but you can be helped by your experience on IOS. I found it relatively smooth considering that I had been using iPhone 3GS for a year, so you can start with the Trackpad which is like the touchscreen on an IOS device. However, keyboard experience won't be challenging after this. well, I say welcome and I am so excited about prospects on this list. Already before I even had read a lot, I found help with reading time on Mac. Cheers! On 02 Apr,2011, at 11:26 PM, JAMES AUSTIN wrote: > Hello Daniel > First off, welcome to the list.

I know it seems obvious, but Mac OS X is not Windows and Voice Over is not JAWS. You'd be amazed at the number of folks I've spoken to since moving to the Mac in 2005-6 that expect the status quo. If possible, try to look at this as a new adventure and a chance to grow. Maybe you remember what it was like for you when you first experienced Windows and JAWS. Because you had never used a computer or Screen Reader before, you had no pre-conceptions or expectations. You'll find the transition a heck of lot easier if you apply this to using Mac OS X. > > HTH > TC :) > James > > You can contact me in the following ways; > > EMail: james.austin at mac-access.net > Skype: saulky1984 > > >> Dear all, my name is Daniel and I have just recently joined this list mainly to hear about apple stuff. >> Currently I am a jaws user and haven't swiched to the Mac Platform yet. This is because I was worried that I wouldn't get use to a Mac computer with voiceover. Not only that but I question myself would the money be worth spending? But I come to realise that now that one day I might take the plunge and buy one at some point and learn it gradually. I hope to be able to get rid of windows I mean at least it will be free and I wouldn't have to worry about paying upgrades for jaws. In which case I couldn't afford it in the 1st place having to get funding for it. But on the plus side of things I do have an apple product and that is an Ipod Nano 4th Genaration and I love it! One thing I really want for the later models is for apple to support male voices I'm not being sexist or anything like that but because I have a hearing inparment as well as being blind I find I can understand the male voices of TTS more understandable compared to female ones. LOL I have emailed apple at accessib > il >> ity.com about it on a few times but as of yet I haven't heard nothing on it. I just hope they are listening because until they put in some male english/US voices into there voiceover product for there I OS platform (not the mac) I won't be able to move forward. >> I look forward to receaving your welcomes on this list and would be interested in what other topics come up on hear. >> Best Wishes >> Daniel >> _______________________________________________ >> >> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access at mac-access.net >> >> You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at: >> >> >> The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free! >> >> Please remember to update your membership options periodically by visiting the list website at: >> > > _______________________________________________ > > To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access at mac-access.net > > You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at: > > > The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free! > > Please remember to update your membership options periodically by visiting the list website at: > From support at mac-access.net Sun Apr 3 08:10:33 2011 From: support at mac-access.net (Gordon & Lynne Smith) Date: Sun, 3 Apr 2011 08:10:33 +0100 Subject: Mac Access; Subject Lines [Re-Re-Revisited] Message-ID: Hello everybody Despite our recent requests that people take care when choosing subject lines for messages to the group, it is apparent that this is still not being heeded. We really can't allow this to continue; it's causing members significant waste of time and inconvenience. Subject lines such as "Did Not', "Have Not", "It won't Work", etc., are very unhelpful and I'm sorry to say that the time has come when we have to stamp down on this kind of behaviour. It's pretty obvious that some people are hanging out, for want of a better term, in groups where this kind of sloppy thing is tolerated, perhaps even encouraged. If so, then I'm sorry but Mac Access is not such a place. if you cannot find it in yourself to adjust your behaviour in accordance to list policy, then this isn't the place for you. So, be aware that, from this point onwards, (Sunday, 3 April 2011), it is now considered a breech of official list policy to use inappropriate, inept or misleading subject lines. This kind of behaviour is making it more and more difficult to effectively use the list archive, and it's wasting people's time. We won't tolerate it any longer. Those who will not desist, despite repeated requests and, now, warnings, will be removed; it really is as simple as that. Please consider this an official list policy update. An appropriate update will be posted to the list policy document which, after all, each and every one of you agreed to abide by when you joined this group.

In keeping with that tradition, we are delighted to welcome Ishe, (no surname available), to our number. We are gratified by the fact that Mac Access is growing globally. We hope that you will find Mac-Access at mac-access.net a pleasant, friendly and worthwhile place to be. In here you will find a wealth of knowledge, and people with a variety of skill levels ranging from the total novice, to the application developers with advanced skills. Then there are those who don't yet own a Mac, but have a keen interest. We hope you will feel free to post your questions and constructive comment, whatever your skill levels may be. Be assured, there will be none of the ridiculing and flaming which we know takes place in other groups. That kind of behaviour is not tolerated in Mac-Access. Anything Mac OS and iOS is on topic for this group. In the case of virtualisation applications such as Fusion and Parallels Desktop, the configuration of the applications themselves, plus the configuration of the virtual machines is on topic. However, the configuration of Windows or any other operating systems within that virtual machine is off topic. The exception to that is if you're using another instance of OSX within the virtual machine. This has always been a bit of a grey area; but we hope this clarifies the position.

Please be aware that we have to strictly stick to Apple here, and it's great that you want to learn. The worst mistake you could make though is to compare OSX to Windows. There are few comparisons which are helpful, aside from the concept of navigating a GUI which, of course is similar; but not identical. I suggest that you try and either pop into an Apple Store or find somebody who has a Mac who will let you try VoiceOver. You might be encouraged to hear that the default voice, (Alex), is a male voice. Many people will use nothing other, although it is good that there are alternatives. regarding the iOS devices, you have to be aware that there is limited space. If Apple starts cluttering up the devices with voices and things which, let's be honest, the majority of people will never use, it wouldn't go down well I would think. But it would be nice if they could offer such support as an "option" extra, maybe downloadable from their site for VoiceOver users. In any event, welcome to the group; we hope you find it of value and please don't hesitate to contact us directly, if you think we can be of assistance with list-related issues.

Currently I am a jaws user and haven't swiched to the Mac Platform yet. This is because I was worried that I wouldn't get use to a Mac computer with voiceover. Not only that but I question myself would the money be worth spending? But I come to realise that now that one day I might take the plunge and buy one at some point and learn it gradually. I hope to be able to get rid of windows I mean at least it will be free and I wouldn't have to worry about paying upgrades for jaws. In which case I couldn't afford it in the 1st place having to get funding for it. But on the plus side of things I do have an apple product and that is an Ipod Nano 4th Genaration and I love it! One thing I really want for the later models is for apple to support male voices I'm not being sexist or anything like that but because I have a hearing inparment as well as being blind I find I can understand the male voices of TTS more understandable compared to female ones. LOL I have emailed apple at accessibil ity.com about it on a few times but as of yet I haven't heard nothing on it. I just hope they are listening because until they put in some male english/US voices into there voiceover product for there I OS platform (not the mac) I won't be able to move forward.

The group is growing rapidly and that, whilst most welcome, means that the amount of traffic inevitably increases as members post in reply to others and also raising new topics. As you may or may not be aware, (depending on whether you took the time to read the relevant documents upon joining), we have two assistants who have kindly agreed to help us to keep the group running smoothly. Specifically, Anne Robertson, and James Austin . The purpose of this announcement is to inform the group that we are giving Anne and James some wider powers, effective immediately. This is a measure which we think is necessary in order to avoid extended breeches of policy, as have occurred recently. As of now, (Sunday 3 April 2011), we are authorising Anne and James to use their discretion and issue reminders or take any other appropriate action regarding posts to the group which do not conform to list policy. This is something which Gordon and I have been considering for some time; but we haven't done this because we are mindful that Anne and James both have their own respective projects and we didn't want to impose upon either of their time. But we feel that the time has come where this is now a necessary step; as things are clearly becoming difficult here and we know that both of them are more than capable of using discretion and sensibly doing what needs to be done. The final decision on any disputed issues rests with us, but we would ask you to please respect any requests which Anne or James may make of you regarding on-list behaviour. Our only goal here is to facilitate the harmonious and mutually productive running of the group, so that all members may get the full benefit from it, whilst at the same time making it an easier job for those of us who need to do so to administrate the group. I shall also be contacting Anne and James privately in the next couple of hours, in order to ensure that they are aware of their access to the servers directly. If they detect any conduct by any member which warrants suspension from or, in the worst cases, removal from the group, the member concerned may appeal to us by contacting but it's likely that they won't get a reversal of the decision since we know that neither Anne nor James would take such action unless there was little option. We would like to firstly, publicly thank Anne and James again for their help on this. And secondly, urge all members to think carefully before simply replying to old subject lines. Subject matter often changes as topics are discussed and, where a subject line is inappropriate, we urge members to use their initiative and change them, rather than simply replying without thought. Thank you for your time, we will be posting an update policy document shortly for those who wish to view it. The link to that document will appear on list shortly.

I have two partitions running MAC OS on my iMac. I would like to create a documents alias folder in partition 1 which takes me to the documents folder of partition 2 so that both partitions can share the same set of user data. So while running MAC OS in partition 1 I located the Paul Hopewell folder in partition 2 and made an alias of the documents folder therein. I then copied this alias into the Paul folder of partition 1 and expected that I could use the copied documents alias to access the documents data of partition 2.

I then found that while running in partition 1 I could create an alias to the Paul Hopewell folder in partition 2 and then copy this alias into partition 1 and use it to access the Paul Hopewell data in partition 2. However I do not want to do this as it exposes other folders such as the library folder of partition 2 to the users of partition 1. Note that the user folder of partition 1 is called Paul while the user folder of partition 2 is called Paul Hopewell.

I think maybe the simplest way to do what you want would be either through Dropbox or through the creation of a Smart Folder. I'm not certain this will work, at the moment, this is purely theoretical. Unfortunately, I don't have a second partition to try this on, but here goes anyway... 1. Dropbox After installing DB from http://www.dropbox.com and configuring it, unless you have it already, try placing an alias there are see if it does what you expect. I know that this is not strictly what you want, but it might be a workaround until a more satisfactory solution can be found. Or you could try... 2. Creating a Smart Folder This approach is a little more involved, as you will need to use the "Inspector" (Command+I) to add search criteria to the "Spotlight Comments" section of the inspector. When I do this, I usually precede my criteria with a symbol such as the and symbol. This is to ensure that the search does not include words or combinations of words that might appear in a document for example. I don't think there is a limit to the number of search criteria, so go nuts! :) You try for example &partition2. That is the and symbol which on a US keyboard is Shift+7 followed immediately by the words partition 2. If you do this for all of the documents in your Documents folder on the second partition, you should see them all appear in the "Smart Folder" on the first, always assuming that Mac oS X can see across both partitions.

But let me outline here the major change in policy which results from recent consultations. Be aware also that Gordon and I have made this change with the greatest of regret, as we both believe in mutual cooperation, rather than moderation. But our hand was forced, we simply couldn't allow the problem we're trying to cure to get out of control, as it was in danger of doing. So, here's the deal whether those offending like, or agree with it or not. Those members who deliberately and persistently refuse to comply with the policy of topical subject lines will be subject to: 1. A polite request off-list by the list owners or one of the list controllers. 2. A formal off-list warning if the polite request is further ignored, issued by the list owners or one of the list controllers. 3. Moderated posts; meaning that all posts from that member will be held for approval by the list owner or one of the list controllers for a limited time. If, at the end of that time, the member's behaviour has improved, and they are adhering to list policy, the moderation will be lifted and the member will be free to post as before. If they then resume their previous behaviour, they will be removed from the group. If, at the end of that limited time there has been no change in the member's behaviour, in other words they are still not showing themselves willing to adhere to list policy, they will be removed from the group. Gordon and I very much regret the necessity to enforce this; we honestly do. We oppose the concept of moderation. But the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one, as a famous Vulcan once said, and the needs of the many shall prevail. If you wish to view the updated policy document in full, you can find it here: and if you have any questions or comments you wish to make, feel free to contact the support address as usual. Please be advised that, at this point, we do not have any specific individual under focus here. Heaven knows that each and every one of us, including both Gordon and I, have inadvertently strayed off topic from time to tie. We don't expect perfection. Our target here is to eliminate entirely inappropriate subject lines such as: "It doesn't work" or: "not better" or: "broken" which tell the rest of the group absolutely nothing. Further explanation is given in the document.

Alas though this is the documents folder and it seems I am not allowed to rename it. I suppose I could create another folder under documents in partition 2 and move all the user folders into that and then create an alias to that new folder. However it would be nice if I could just edit the document alias to add the rest of the path. I will explore more. Many thanks.

Have you tried Chronicle from http://www.littlefin.com/chronicle.html There is a demo, and when I tried it, it seemed almost 100% accessible. I know you asked for something that was 100% accessible, but perhaps others on the list will come up with other choices too.

I was just wondering how voiceover and mail go about the look when one has multiple email accounts on there system. I don't know how to describe it but if anyone on this list has used microsoft's Assentials mail programme version 2009, I am looking for a way to have it like that sor of layout. Basicly in the treeview you get your email accounts as you arrow down you go into your inbox keep arrowing down you get to your next account and tab from there to the message list to see your emails. sorry I'm not very good at explaining so I'll leave it there and just simply say again that if anyone on this list has used microsoft's assentials windows live mail 2009, I'm looking for a layout/view that's like that with voiceover and the mail programme on the Mac. Of course if it is laied out differently then I would love to know the different approach that apple has taken.

This is how I do it: On the desktop, you first have to interact with the Mailbox table by either flicking two fingers to the right on the track pad or pressing the CTRL-Options, shift, Down Arrow keys. You will then see the accounts you have on the system. You navigate through the main accounts by pressing CTRL-Options, down or up arrow keys. Here you can also see other folders like Sent items and Junk. However, if you get to the account you wish, you just stop interacting with the mailbox table by pressing CTRL-Options Shift, Up arrow keys. You then move to the message Content area by CTRL-options right arrow key and start navigating the messages. After you're through, you just return to the Mailbox table and interact with it to choose another account.

Sim links are something that have been around in unix for years and years. What it does is to allow you to keep things organized, without physically taking up additional space on the hd. I.E. if you had recipes, and each one was in a different file, you could have a recipes folder, then under that, you could have categories like mexican, italian, favorites, and so on. If you had a zesty speghetti sauce, you could physically place it in the italian folder, but then use a sim link to drop the same file into your favorites, and again, perhaps into your sauce categories. That way, the recipe would show up in all three places, but only one of those would be the actual physical file. This eliminates the need to maintain multiple copies of files, but still gives you the flexibility to have those files anywhere you like. Ok, now for the creation of said files. Let's take Paul's issue here. He wants to have one folder to cover two different user accounts (or that's how I read it, forgive me if my quick perusal of the info is incorrect) What Paul needs to do to place the same documents folder in two locations is this: First, create a documents folder in the first user's home folder (this is already done by the os at install time, so no issue here) Second, sim-link that folder to the same location in another home folder on a different partition. (word of warning here, sim-links have two modes, hard and soft links. Hard links will not work across devices like Paul wants here, so a sim-link (or soft) link is what we'll need here). At your terminal prompt (terminal can be found under utilities in your applications list) you would create such a link like this: ln -s /Volumes/Users/Paul/Documents/ Documents You would want to run this command from the location in which you'd want the new documents folder to appear. I.E. on the second user's account from their home folder, not from the first user's folder, as this would place the new link in the wrong place if it was run from the first user's account. The first parameter (after the -s) should be the full path name to the item you need to create the link for. This can be either a file or a folder. The second parameter should be the name you want it to have in the new location. There's no restrictions on what this name can be other than normal unix file-name restrictions. I.E. you need not name the new link anything at all relating to the original file/folder if you don't want to. The -s tells the ln command to produce a sim-link. Sim-links are going to be what you will use 99 percent of the time when you create links. There's hard links which would be made with a -h instead of a -s, but it's not likely anyone will need the -h, it's just here for completeness. Now, some caveats with this system that may or may not be of concern for you. First, remember, every single folder and file has permissions on it as to what can be done with those files and folders based on the user id. Having multiple users on a single documents folder is likely to experience some of these issues, though in general, if you only edit files with the user id it was created with, and only read it with the other one, you will experience no issues. If the user ids match on both os boots, there will be no issues as well. However, if you're having issues with permissions, it may be necessary to create a group, andplace each user on each os into the same numbered group, which will help aliviate some of these issues. There's other things such as umask settings that can help permissions issues even more, but aren't likely to be needed in a simple two-user setup like this one, and generally are only useful on large systems with lots of users needing to access data in same locations, or where security is an even greater concern than on a single-user system, so I won't discuss that here. If anyone really needs to know about umask details, feel free to email me off-list, and I'll see what I can do to help. I think it may be helpful if I created some apple scripts to do simple things that require terminal, such as this sim-link tip, and other posts I've placed on the list in the past, just to make it easier for our non-terminal users here. I sometimes forget not everyone has a feel or desire to use the terminal, so apple scripts may help to soften the culture shock most folks first experience when being introduced to the terminal commands. Hope this helps, and do feel free to ask for further clarification if some or all of this doesn't make sense.

For whatever it's worth, I am playing with the voices now but maybe it's just my ears but I really can't see a problem with the British voices. I tried this on an iPhone and on an iPad, and will do so on the iPod Touch shortly. I can imagine there is a problem on the Touch because of the tiny speaker. But on the iPhone and iPad I don't see any problem. Again though I am mindful of the fact that some people do have hearing impairments. But what we have to remember here is that space is limited. The more functions supported, the less memory the user has to play with. VoiceOver users are in a minority and that's probably how Apple has to look at this.

For whatever it's worth, I am playing with the voices now but maybe it's just my ears but I really can't see a problem with the British voices. I tried this on an iPhone and on an iPad, and will do so on the iPod Touch shortly. I can imagine there is a problem on the Touch because of the tiny speaker. But on the iPhone and iPad I don't see any problem. Again though I am mindful of the fact that some people do have hearing impairments. > > But what we have to remember here is that space is limited.

So after you interact with the "layout area", you can then use VO Up/Down arrow to move between individual pages and then interact with the page. You can then interact with the header (top), body (the main text area) or footer (bottom) as you need. Once you've found the page you want, you can try using VO+A to read the current page or from the cursor.

No question is too weird or too simple for this lsit :) It's only obvious when you know the answer. So, now you're going to know. :) Uninstalling 99% of apps on Mac is really simple. You simply delete the .app file from the Applications folder with Command+Shift+Backspace. This will put the app in the Trash so you can get it back if you like. You may find that that there are related files still sitting on your Mac though, and you'll generally find them in ~/Library/Application Support. You'll also find .plist files in ~Library/Preferences You can leave the Preferences files though if you like, as they are just text files and will not take up much space..

You can actually interact with pages individually by using VO interaction. So after you interact with the "layout area", you can then use VO Up/Down arrow to move between individual pages and then interact with the page. You can then interact with the header (top), body (the main text area) or footer (bottom) as you need. Once you've found the page you want, you can try using VO+A to read the current page or from the cursor. Well; I'm not Caitlin, but out of curiosity I went and played with Pages just now. I have the advantage of having Gordon here to help me. But I have to admit, I found Pages very strait forward to use with VoiceOver. As you say, interacting is quite necessary; but once you get used to the concept of interacting with each area, it's very very easy and accessible. Of course, I do not require VoiceOver, but as you know I like to use it on applications now and then because I want to know now it works for those of you who have no vision.

Please, don't anybody feel inhibited by a lack of knowledge. That's why this list exists. You will never ever be flamed for asking simple questions. ? Uninstalling 99% of apps on Mac is really simple. You simply delete the .app file from the Applications folder with Command+Shift+Backspace. This will put the app in the Trash so you can get it back if you like. You may find that that there are related files still sitting on your Mac though, and you'll generally find them in ~/Library/Application Support. You'll also find .plist files in ~Library/Preferences Just to correct you James, it's Command+Backslash. Command+Shift+Backslash empties the trash. ? You can leave the Preferences files though if you like, as they are just text files and will not take up much space.. There are utilities, such as have been discussed in another thread on list which can help you in this regard if you're too faint-hearted to go hunting for preference files and, lety's face it, who could blame you!

I find it's sometimes easier finding the file on my network from Finder or the Spotlight search but couldn't find how to email the file. Well, of course, I[vex now found where to do this, but others new to the IMac may miss it too. Once you[ve selected your file, use VO-M to go to the Apple menu, arrow right to the Finder Menu, go down to Services and then right arrow. There you will see New Email with Attachment. No need to right click or anything like that... How easy is that? I'm sure I once knew this but have since forgotten it, :) but hope this may be of use to others. Dennis.

Uninstalling 99% of apps on Mac is really simple. You simply delete the .app file from the Applications folder with Command+Shift+Backspace. This will put the app in the Trash so you can get it back if you like. You may find that that there are related files still sitting on your Mac though, and you'll generally find them in ~/Library/Application Support.

NOw htat I've switched to the Mac, I've gotten out of that, as I could not really find an app that was similar in functionality to the stationplaylist line of products, which is what I used under Windows. A friend of mine told me about an app called radiologik DJ from http://macinmind.com. I tried this about a year ago, and it was pretty much inaccessible. Just tried the latest version of it now, and there are still a lot of unknowns everywhere with it. A lot of buttons are labeled but probably the ability to see what you've queued up etc is not exactly there. When I'd tried this app before, i'd contacted the dev about it, sent an email probably two or three times in the span of about a year, and got no response. I'm sure there are those on list that are more of the developer type then I am, that could give the developer some very useful feedback, and Work closely to make this thing accessible. It looks very good from the descriptions i'd read on the site, and totally what I, or anybody looking to do the broadcasting thing would want.

If you interact, you can use the VO command "Go to first item" which is, on a laptop, VO-FN-Shift-Left Arrow and Right arrow for last item. You could use "Go to first visible item" (VO-Shift-Left arrow), but that only works on relatively short lists. Remember that you can find all the VoiceOver commands by pressing VO-H-H. You can also try out commands you think you remember by going into Keyboard Help (VO-K_, which you leave by pressing Escape.

Interestingly enough, though, these tags don't stick nor apply all the way across the board. At least, they never have for me when I do it in iTunes.

If you give the ln command more than two parameters, all additional arguments are used to create new links into the target folder for files in the current directory. So, if you have three files 1 2 and 3 that you want to show up in a new folder, something like ln /users/otheruser/documents/ 1 2 3 would do the job. Each linked file will retain it's original name in the target folder, which may or may not be what you want, depending on what you're trying to do. However, this only works if all the files you wish to link are already in the current folder. If you have multiple files located in different places, each one will need to be linked separately. Hope this helps.

This works in mail, and other places where the lists are very long. I use it all the time to go to top and bottom of mail lists among other things. Of course, if you don't have a keyboard with the extra home, pageup/ down, delete and arrow keys, this won't help, but if you do, this is an excellent way to get quickly to top or bottom of any list.

In fact, I was doing it differently: I did not interact with the mailbox lists: I just used to press VO and right arrow on a highlighted mailbox and started navigating. Now it works. Of course, I was not successful with the Option-Up or Down arrow keys, so I had to resort to the second method you pointed out. Thanks for the VO-H shortcut for opening the help.

With this in mind, I would like to know what file extensions the Mac uses for music, textfiles and Mac's own word-processing facilities, assuming these may well be included with the Mac? Second, what recognised Windows filetypes can the Ipod Touch read if put into Itunes and are there editors out there that will enable me to edit Windows files on the Mac and Mac files on Windows, should I have need to do so? (I'm primarily only interested in music sound files, word processors and perhaps spreadsheets.)

If you give the ln command more than two parameters, all additional arguments are used to create new links into the target folder for files in the current directory. So, if you have three files 1 2 and 3 that you want to show up in a new folder, something like ln /users/otheruser/documents/ 1 2 3 would do the job. Each linked file will retain it's original name in the target folder, which may or may not be what you want, depending on what you're trying to do. However, this only works if all the files you wish to link are already in the current folder. If you have multiple files located in different places, each one will need to be linked separately. Hope this helps.

We were "mail bombed" last night / this morning by a Google Mail user determined to crash our list server. He sent us 300,000 messages in about 4 hours before our servers finally decided enough was enough, and blocked every message from Google. Gordon intercepted the filters this morning and after we reviewed the logs, he sat down and made some filter rules. We hope, really really hope, this will solve the problem. But we just wanted to make sure that the genuine traffic wasn't blocked.

Doing this, your software won't be able to tell the difference between the linked files and real files physically located in the same folder. That should solve the problem for you. As mentioned before though, this won't work if it is on a different partition/disk, but if both locations are on the same partition or physical disk, it should work just fine. Perhaps that will save at least some aliases, since creating them is such a pain. On Apr 6, 2011, at 4:16 PM, Mrs. Lynnette Annabel Smith wrote: > Hello Travis > > I guess our bubble is burst!

Macc runs mpeg files, no to wma log and others in terms of media files when fresh out of the box. I think the addition of VLC might remedy this. As for word processing, I use iworks and the macc reads the .doc files though unsure about .dox files. XLS files are read on the mac through numbers. The other way around I have no idea as my windows machine is scheduled for termination as soon as I have time to learn about my macc. I think if you get a macc, you may wish to take notice of this advice I have been given as it is brilliant. Dump the windows machine and get your head into macc. Forget what you know on windows and the transition will be much easier.

When it comes to these sorts of things, apple is no different from microsoft. They set rules, and then proceed to do whatever they like, regardless of the rules for others. This only doesn't surprise me in the least, I would have been surprised if someone didn't turn up at least one app that broke several rules. How many times do we need to report to apple that this app is broken, or that this and that item isn't labeled with vo accessible options? Apple produces the guidelines, but there plenty of guys working for apple that either don't follow, or outright ignore the coding standards, including the accessibility ones. Maybe they're high up in the seniority chain, maybe they're real popular, or maybe nobody at apple gives a hoot. The actual reason makes no difference, in a large company, you'll always have someone who for whatever reason doesn't follow the rules and (repeatedly) gets away with it. Apple's folks just get more scrutiny because of their stores and policies. Intel has an app store, and nobody publishes articles yelling that an intel guy didn't stick to it's own guidelines, so why yell about apple's failure to do so? Is it embarrassing for apple? Maybe a little, but does anyone here think the guy who wrote that app is even going to get a slap on the wrist for this? That's the way companies work. Is it right? Not really, is it likely to happen again? You can bet on it. Is it something to complain about and broadcast to the world? Probably, but honestly, who really cares other than those folks who were turned down for their apps doing the same things. Face it, it's apple's store, they have the right to reject any app for any reason, and nothing is going to change that, so yelling about what rules one of their own apps brok isn't going to do anything except cause a whole lot of griping all around.

For example, let's assume I have a folder tree consisting of untagged media. The tree looks like Artist/Album/tracks.mp3 Using this utility I can set things up to specify that the folder name(s) go into the appropriate tag fields, as does the track title etc. So I can get the artist from the folder, the album from the folder, and the title from the filename. Oh and I can trim the ".mp3" off as well. I can also look at tag data in files, and generate a folder structure from the tag data. Sorry Mac zealots, nothing, and I have looked, compares to this program it's absolutely fantastic. -----Original Message----- From: mac-access-bounces at mac-access.net [mailto:mac-access-bounces at mac-access.net] On Behalf Of Colin M Sent: 07 April 2011 01:33 To: Mac OSX & iOS Accessibility Subject: Re: Is there a way to tag .mp3 files?

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <945B0834-BA45-4EAF-A7B7-0BFFDEBB5A3F@fastmail.us> Hi Caitlyn, I can't access anything there without an account, but I can take one guess at what may be happening. It could be that the site is using flash or silverlight to play the mp3 files. Even if you install these plugins, they are not accessible on the mac. You might want to try a safari extension called click to plugin. It attempts to convert this content into normal html, which is then accessible with voiceover. You can download it here. http://hoyois.github.com/safariextensions/clicktoplugin I sure hope this makes the site work for you. Let me know how it goes.

This site has a feature of having mp3's on it for us which we can rehearse along with. I can't get them to play in safari, nor can I seem to download them. Does safari need a plug in to play mp3's on web sites? The site is www.planningcenteronline.com, in case anyone wants to check it out, if you can do that without user info. thanks, Caitlyn _______________________________________________ To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access at mac-access.net You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at: The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free!

I have firmware version 4.53. It is great that you are confirming that an older version of the firmware works. I have written to Apple Accessibility as well and have suspected that the problem is firmware related. When I called Freedom Scientific they informed me that there is no way for me to download older firmware. I would encourage you to make sure and clarify with Apple accessibility that a version of the FOcus with older firmware works. The only way that this will get fixed is if Apple gets there hands on a unit with the updated firmware version that is failing and tries to figure out what Freedom Scientific changed. -Kevin On 4/7/11, J?rgen Skov Nielsen wrote: > Hi All > I have a strange problem. > When i use my focus 40 display on bluetooth it works fine. > When i try to connect it with usb, it don't work. > I have tested my usb connection in windows with jaws, and there it works > great. > My display is revision 4.53. > My sister have a focus 40 display with a older revision number, and it works > great on usb. > Have anyone tried this before? > I have sent a message with the problem to Apple accessibility. > > Best regards > J?rgen Skov Nielsen > > _______________________________________________ > > To reply to this post, please address your message to > mac-access at mac-access.net > > You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the > Mac-Access forum at: > > > The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus > and worm-free! > > Please remember to update your membership options periodically by visiting > the list website at: > > > -- Kevin Fjelsted B Harris, Inc. http://www.bharrisinc.com kevin.fjelsted at bharrisinc.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinfjelsted Phone: 612.424.7333 EX. 301 Direct: 612.424.7332 From chojiro1990 at gmail.com Fri Apr 8 00:27:14 2011 From: chojiro1990 at gmail.com (Nicolai Svendsen) Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2011 01:27:14 +0200 Subject: Twitter app, TweetList Freemium - It's Free!

Let's say hypothetically that Freedom Scientific makes a future firmware change that makes BlueTooth incompatible as well. THen we will be out of luck unless it is fixed. I am sure that Apple will focus, no pun intended lol... on resolving any issues with the displays that are most in use.

If they'd released specs, or even a few drivers for these braille devices, it's possible one of us whohas some programming skills, and access to the affected device, could solve the problem for them, and make a lot of braille display users happy too, and apple wouldn't have to do a thing. Unfortunately, my protests and persuasive arguments have fallen on deaf ears. Apple has no intention of releasing either sdks or sample drivers to allow this to happen. They feel it's their responsibility to make maintain and release the drivers, and refuse to release info that would allow others to do so. Honestly, I see no harm in releasing specs allowing folks to produce their own drivers especially if it's for a device apple doesn't support themselves, and lord knows there's hundreds of devices out there that apple doesn't support, and won't support any time soon (if ever) so releasing such info would only help make the transition easier, but as with most things they feel strongly about, this isn't going to happen. Is it possible to develop a driver from scratch to handle the devices in question? Sure it is, but it's nearly impossible for someone like me who knows neither the apple internals, or the equipment internals, so if I did try to make such a driver, most of it wuld be guess work, and as a result, the end result would be hardly worth releasing. I dn't understand why apple won't allow third-party developers to make such drivers. They do have usb development kits, but those are of limited utility, since folks like freedom scientific, humanware, and others aren't willing to offer up the necessary information to help the process along, and as we've seen recently, even actively modify their behavior rendering existing interfaces useless. I really wish someone could force these folks to work together and allow others to take some of the workload from them simply by offering docs necessary for us to do our job, and that is to fill the gap left by official support avenues.

Just a bit confused on that one now! There is a plugin for ITunes for playing .ogg files, but VLC can do much more than just play .ogg files. You might consider giving it ago. Also, because it's cross-platform, it can be used on either Mac or MS Win Hope that helps TC :) James > Thanks for the explanation ... > > So, are you saying that you need VLC to play Ogg files on the Mac, or just to use it in Windows?

Yes, the Take Control series are published in either PDF or Epub. If you've got an IOS device, you might find FileApp useful. It is an app which can read; PDF, HTML,Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Open Office format, Text, Pages, Numbers and Keynote files. It comes in either a free or paid flavour. You can find them in the ITunes store. If you're wanting to read this on MS Win, then Adobe should be able to handle the PDF just fine. However, if you can, it might be better to get your hands on a Mac, so that you can get an idea of what the book is talking about. Without one, the concepts the book discusses might be a little abstract and difficult to get a handle on.

This is a downloadable eBook that is available in both PDF and ePub format. It is incredibly good value for $2. Here's the brief description of the book that you would get if you followed the link that Gordon provided to the specific page for this book in the Take Control series: Switching to the Mac is a big step, and if you're helping someone make the leap, Scott Knaster is here to help with concise, real-world guidance. Scott has worked at Apple and Microsoft, so he has the chops necessary to explain the Mac to someone who has known only Windows. He starts by helping the potential Mac user feel good about switching while acknowledging that it's a big move. Then he gets into the nitty-gritty: how to set up a Mac, how the Mac interface compares with Windows, which Mac applications replace common Windows programs, and how to move datato the Mac, including documents, music, an iTunes library, email messages, address books, and Web bookmarks. Scott next helps a switcher translate Windows know-how to Mac proficiency, covering how to set up users, work in Finder windows, search with Spotlight, manage applications and windows, use the network, print, download software updates, and more, all anchored by ten essential Mac tips. Finally, Scott has some quick advice for sharing documents with Windows usersand running the occasional Windows application. I sometimes think that Gordon and Lynne should put up a few of the archived posts from list members about their experiences with using the Take Control books purchased at 80% discount throught Mac-Access, except that it would look like advertising. You'll be able to read this entirely on your iPhone.

Here's a link to the article in TidBITS (by the same people who publish the Take Control book series) that appeared yesterday: http://www.tidbits.com/article/12100 "iBooks Now Opens EPUB Files Directly" by Adam Engst I'll excerpt a bit: Back in ?Take Control?s Problems with Apps and Docs in iOS? (25 July 2010), I complained about how hard it was to distribute files to iOS users via the Internet due to limitations in iOS. Although some limitations went away in iOS 4.0 and 4.2, others (no centralized file storage area, no OS-level support for Zip files) remain. Luckily, one notable limitation ? iBooks failing to register itself as being able to open EPUB files from other apps ? has now been rectified. The practical upshot of this fix is that you can now transfer EPUB files into iBooks far more easily than before, when the only way was to drop them into iTunes and do a USB sync. For individual users, that means you can send yourself an EPUB via email and transfer the attachment to iBooks, and you can also copy EPUB files into Dropbox and use the iOS Dropbox app to send them to iBooks. This now works transparently. If I use my iOS device (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad) and double tap a link to an ePub version of a book on a web site, I'm offered the option to "Open In" either a default app (like iBooks), or other eReader apps on my device like Kobo Books, Stanza, etc. The iBooks app will actually open in the book I've loaded (unlike when I used to send PDF attachments to mail, and double tap on the attachment -- iBooks would open if I selected the option to open in iBooks, and the PDF would get added to the library, but iBooks would open in my current book -- not the attached PDF. I'd have to exit the current book to find the new PDF book in the library and switch to it.) I've tried this from a number of sites, including the original Take Control Books account site. (I started reading these books over 5 years ago -- well before the current mac-access list offer became available.) This is great because they reorganized the Take Control user account site a few weeks ago so that you couldn't as easily access the ePub versions compared to the situation of the previous 5 or 6 months. Now they've reorganized the site again, and I can directly download the ePub versions to iBooks on my iOS device by double tapping the link. Similarly, I can go to ePubbooks at: http://www.epubbooks.com/ and browse their catalog for books. On the web page for the selected book, set your web rotor to "image". (I think this is not one of the settings included in the web rotor by default -- you have to configure it in Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Web Rotor by selecting it (with a double tap)). Then flick down so that you first hear the title book cover image announced, and then flick down a second time so you hear the title, download size in kB, and the words "link image". This is the ePub download link for the book. Double tapping this link (the second flick down when you have set the rotor to "Image" on the page for a specific book at the ePubbooks site) will let you download the ePub file for the book. Safari will come up with the two button options "Open In?" and "Open In iBooks". (I do a 4 finger flick down to move to the last element on the screen, which is "Open in iBooks". On the recently updated iOS systems this is now a four finger tap on the bottom half of the screen instead of a 4 finger flick down.) Then I double tap the "Open in iBooks" button. So James, no need to use the File App to open these eBook files. Just go directly to iBooks. This should also work for the ePub files you create under Stanza Desktop or Pages, and that you put onto your own web page, Drop Box, or MobileMe iDisk.

But ultimately I decided against it because I don't want to make too big a deal of this, and we prefer to let the members do the talking. We are here to simply provide a service, and that is how we think it should stay. If members have a question or six, we're more than happy to answer them, on or off list. Also, I think it's important to remember Travis's part in all of this. Without Travis's efforts, it wouldn't ever have happened. So let's not forget that. :) But yes, Carol and anybody else on list is more than welcome to come and ask questions and buy the books. Once again I must point out, as I always try to do, just to clear up any possible misunderstandings. We do not do this for profit. It is simply a courtesy service, and we pay what you pay, not a bean more or less. We're not looking to make money from our venture, just to help those who need it, and who want to take advantage of the offer. We are working on a couple of things, and hope to bring you more offers in the months ahead. Gordon On 8 Apr 2011, at 21:39, Esther wrote: Hello Carol, I've changed the subject line to reflect your question about "Take Control of Switching to the Mac". This is a downloadable eBook that is available in both PDF and ePub format. It is incredibly good value for $2. Here's the brief description of the book that you would get if you followed the link that Gordon provided to the specific page for this book in the Take Control series: Switching to the Mac is a big step, and if you're helping someone make the leap, Scott Knaster is here to help with concise, real-world guidance. Scott has worked at Apple and Microsoft, so he has the chops necessary to explain the Mac to someone who has known only Windows. He starts by helping the potential Mac user feel good about switching while acknowledging that it's a big move. Then he gets into the nitty-gritty: how to set up a Mac, how the Mac interface compares with Windows, which Mac applications replace common Windows programs, and how to move datato the Mac, including documents, music, an iTunes library, email messages, address books, and Web bookmarks. Scott next helps a switcher translate Windows know-how to Mac proficiency, covering how to set up users, work in Finder windows, search with Spotlight, manage applications and windows, use the network, print, download software updates, and more, all anchored by ten essential Mac tips. Finally, Scott has some quick advice for sharing documents with Windows usersand running the occasional Windows application. I sometimes think that Gordon and Lynne should put up a few of the archived posts from list members about their experiences with using the Take Control books purchased at 80% discount throught Mac-Access, except that it would look like advertising. You'll be able to read this entirely on your iPhone.

Now select Text to Speech where you'll find the System voice, and to the right you should hear Announce when alerts are displayed checked check box. Uncheck this check box and all should be fine.

No, I don't think you can. Apple seems very keen on locking IOS users into ITunes for their syncing needs. There is however a third party appp called "IPhone Explorer", info and downloads for which can be found here: http://www.macroplant.com/iphoneexplorer/ I've never got this to work properly though. Once your audio has been synced with ITunes, you should then be able to go into the ITunes Media folder and copy your files directly from there to wherever you wish. You can also burn your audio files to CD, which can be quite involved. Another option would be to copy your ITunes Library to an external HD, thereby saving space on your main drive. I think you just need to copy your ITunes folder, which can be found in your Music folder by default. You will then need to ensure that the external HD is plugged in every time you want to modify the Library or sync your IPhone with it. Finally, you might want to check out "Take Control of ITunes 10: The FAQ", which as Gordon said in a previous post can be bought rom Mac Access at an 80% discount, or from Take Control Books directly.

I have a directory structure of lab exams. All directories have a name like dfex2_101. These directories contain three C++ files named q1.cpp q2.cpp and q3.cpp. THe directories also contain a bunch of other nonsense, contained in very very large files and folders I'm not interested in. So what I want to do is copy all the C++ files to a new location, but preserving the directory structure. Note that I can't simply delete the large files before copying, as the original must remain in place and absolutely as the student left it at the end of the exam. Anyone any ideas?

I have several audio books from Audible in my itunes library. Whenever I play one of these iTunes requires me to enter my Audible name and password for the first such play in an itunes session. I am sure that on my prior MAC I only entered this information once and iTunes or maybe someone else remembered it across iTunes sessions. Alas I cannot remember how I did this. The above is a problem as I like to sync my Audible books to my iPod Nano generation 6. If I do not first play an Audible book on iTunes to cause me to enter the Audible name and password then iTunes deletes all the Audible books on my iPod presumably because it considers I am not authorised to play them. I keep forgetting to initially start an Audible book on iTunes before doing any sync for any reason and so keep deleting my library of Audible books on my iPod. So any ideas on how to have iTunes permanently remember my Audible name and password? Many thanks.

You can send the output to standard out, pipe to the new location, and then extract. Say you want to move the files to a new directory named /exam/results and preserve the structure. You previously created this directory: mkdir /exam/results Your command will look like: tar cf - ./*/*.cpp | (cd /exam/results && tar xf -) The first part of the command does a tar (archive) on all files with .cpp extensions in all subdirectories of the present directory. The "c" indicates you are creating the archive and the "f" indicates that the next argument will be the file name of the tar saveset. Since we don't really want to keep this as an archive file, but just use it to move to another location, I use the "-" to pass this to STDOUT (standard out), and then send the result in a pipe ("|"). The next part of the command in parentheses says that I first want to change my directory to /exam/results and once I am there, extract the tar archive. The double ampersand ("&&") separates the two commands -- one to change my directory, and the second to unpack the tar saveset in that location. The fact that I use two ampersands instead of one means that the second command will only be executed if the first command is successful. The "tar xf -" says to extract ("x" or unpack) the tar saveset with filename ("f") specified as STDIN (standard in) by the "-". If you want to use other regular expressions for the naming (e.g., if the "dfex2" files are mixed with others, and you want to separate these out), you can add the specification. Similarly, you can also break the command up, and actually make a tar saveset file with a name of your choice. tar cf results.tar ./*/*.cpp Then copy results.tar to the new location, and do tar xvf results.tar in that location to unpack. I added the "v" for verbose mode here, and you can add it if you want more information as you create ("cvf") or extract ("xvf"). Technically you might need to worry about reblocking if you are piping to another disk with different block size formatting. I don't think the Mac OS X tar commands supports the -B switch for reblocking (or I would use "tar xBf -"). I did test this out by moving all the small jpg album files for my OverDrive audiobooks to subdirectories by book in my Dropbox/Elements file: tar cf - ./MP3\ Audiobooks/*/*.jpg | (cd /Users/esther/Dropbox/Elements && tar xf -) That worked. HTH. Travis may be able to suggest some alternatives/refinements.

SO the command I came up with was: (note I'm assuming that I've executed cd into the backup directory) find . -not \( -name "*.c" -o -name "*.cpp" \) -delete which is great, but it doesn't work. It claims to have an issue with the "-not" operator. any thoughts?

COuld you remind me, can I use *.c* to get all files with a ".c(something)" as the extension? Reason I ask is that (not unusually *smile*) the students didn't follow instructions correctly, and some used a ".c" extension, and some used a ".cpp" extension.

You can send the output to standard out, pipe to the new location, and then extract. Say you want to move the files to a new directory named /exam/results and preserve the structure. You previously created this directory: >>> mkdir /exam/results >>> >>> Your command will look like: >>> >>> tar cf - ./*/*.cpp | (cd /exam/results && tar xf -) >>> >>> The first part of the command does a tar (archive) on all files with .cpp extensions in all subdirectories of the present directory. The "c" indicates you are creating the archive and the "f" indicates that the next argument will be the file name of the tar saveset. Since we don't really want to keep this as an archive file, but just use it to move to another location, I use the "-" to pass this to STDOUT (standard out), and then send the result in a pipe ("|"). The next part of the command in parentheses says that I first want to change my directory to /exam/results and once I am there, extract the tar archive. The double ampersand ("&&") separates the two commands -- one to change my directory, and the second to unpack the tar saveset in that location. The fact that I use two ampersands instead of one means that the second command will only be executed if the first command is successful. The "tar xf -" says to extract ("x" or unpack) the tar saveset with filename ("f") specified as STDIN (standard in) by the "-". >>> >>> If you want to use other regular expressions for the naming (e.g., if the "dfex2" files are mixed with others, and you want to separate these out), you can add the specification. Similarly, you can also break the command up, and actually make a tar saveset file with a name of your choice. >>> >>> tar cf results.tar ./*/*.cpp >>> >>> Then copy results.tar to the new location, and do >>> >>> tar xvf results.tar >>> >>> in that location to unpack. I added the "v" for verbose mode here, and you can add it if you want more information as you create ("cvf") or extract ("xvf"). >>> >>> Technically you might need to worry about reblocking if you are piping to another disk with different block size formatting. I don't think the Mac OS X tar commands supports the -B switch for reblocking (or I would use "tar xBf -"). >>> >>> I did test this out by moving all the small jpg album files for my OverDrive audiobooks to subdirectories by book in my Dropbox/Elements file: >>> >>> tar cf - ./MP3\ Audiobooks/*/*.jpg | (cd /Users/esther/Dropbox/Elements && tar xf -) >>> >>> That worked.

I had to: 1. copy the exams folder tree to a backup location: cp -r df* ~/backup_exams 2. now I had to go to this directory: cd ~/backup_exams 3. now this was the tricky bit. I had to find all files which were not either ".c" or ".cpp" and delete them: find . \! \( -name "*.c" -o -name "*.cpp" \) -exec rm -f {} \; Some of this command may be new to some of you so I'l take a second to explain it. Find takes as its first argument the path where you want to start. I had changed to the backup_exams directory so I could just put the dot "." here. Now the \! means the logical "not" operator. After this is a \( followed by the -name "*.c". This is one group of files. then comes the -o operator, which is a logical "or" followed by the second group of files, followed by the closing \). So what this first bit is doing is telling find to look for, files which are not ".c" or ".cpp". Now comes the -exec command, followed by the standard Unix RM -f. This removes the files when they are found. THe last bit (the {} and the \;) simply replace the path of the file that has been found, and then end the command sequence. 4. The final bit was caused by the fact that I had lots of empty directories left over. SO again, I had to issue a find command to locate all empty directories, and then run rmdir on them. This worked because rmdir only removes empty directories. Sorry if this is useless information, but I strongly recommend people who are learning terminal to get familiar with the "find" command. It's extremely powerful.

COuld you remind me, can I use *.c* to get all files with a ".c(something)" as the extension? Reason I ask is that (not unusually *smile*) the students didn't follow instructions correctly, and some used a ".c" extension, and some used a ".cpp" extension.

You can send the output to standard out, pipe to the new location, and then extract. Say you want to move the files to a new directory named /exam/results and preserve the structure. You previously created this directory: >>> mkdir /exam/results >>> >>> Your command will look like: >>> >>> tar cf - ./*/*.cpp | (cd /exam/results && tar xf -) >>> >>> The first part of the command does a tar (archive) on all files with .cpp extensions in all subdirectories of the present directory. The "c" indicates you are creating the archive and the "f" indicates that the next argument will be the file name of the tar saveset. Since we don't really want to keep this as an archive file, but just use it to move to another location, I use the "-" to pass this to STDOUT (standard out), and then send the result in a pipe ("|"). The next part of the command in parentheses says that I first want to change my directory to /exam/results and once I am there, extract the tar archive. The double ampersand ("&&") separates the two commands -- one to change my directory, and the second to unpack the tar saveset in that location. The fact that I use two ampersands instead of one means that the second command will only be executed if the first command is successful. The "tar xf -" says to extract ("x" or unpack) the tar saveset with filename ("f") specified as STDIN (standard in) by the "-". >>> >>> If you want to use other regular expressions for the naming (e.g., if the "dfex2" files are mixed with others, and you want to separate these out), you can add the specification. Similarly, you can also break the command up, and actually make a tar saveset file with a name of your choice. >>> >>> tar cf results.tar ./*/*.cpp >>> >>> Then copy results.tar to the new location, and do >>> >>> tar xvf results.tar >>> >>> in that location to unpack. I added the "v" for verbose mode here, and you can add it if you want more information as you create ("cvf") or extract ("xvf"). >>> >>> Technically you might need to worry about reblocking if you are piping to another disk with different block size formatting.

This is a downloadable eBook that is available in both PDF and ePub format. It is incredibly good value for $2.

Scott has worked at Apple and Microsoft, so he has the chops necessary to explain the Mac to someone who has known only Windows. He starts by helping the potential Mac user feel good about switching while acknowledging that it's a big move. Then he gets into the nitty-gritty: how to set up a Mac, how the Mac interface compares with Windows, which Mac applications replace common Windows programs, and how to move datato the Mac, including documents, music, an iTunes library, email messages, address books, and Web bookmarks. Scott next helps a switcher translate Windows know-how to Mac proficiency, covering how to set up users, work in Finder windows, search with Spotlight, manage applications and windows, use the network, print, download software updates, and more, all anchored by ten essential Mac tips.

Yes, after I finished my post! Came back to see that you already posted that you had changed your Itunes! :] Now from what you've said in the past I think you might not have much space left! But my idea is if you can set up a new user [ temporary] and see if the Itunes on that user account works! And if it does then I think you might have a problem with your user account! But if the Itunes on the other one does the same as yours, then I'm stuck again! Hope you can get this sorted! Colin Qapla!

It appears it might have been too edgy for Apple?s tastes. The label?s first game Unpleasant Horse has been sent packing by Apple because of mature content. The company went public with its rejection on Twitter with a tweet that read: ?WTF? Apple rejected Unpleasant Horse cuz of ?mature content?? We thought horses dying in meat grinders was wholesome family entertainment!? The tweet was later removed. Since then, the studio has taken a more upbeat approach saying it would appeal the ruling and resubmit with a higher rating. I reached out to PopCap and a spokesperson said the company has no comment right now but may issue a statement later. It?s unclear what age rating Unpleasant Horse was submitted under. The 4+ rating is for apps with no objectionable content while the 9+ and 12+ ratings state there can be some mild or occasionally intense cartoon, fantasy or realistic violence that is not appropriate for younger audiences. PopCap?s super popular Plants vs. Zombies, for example, is rated 9+. It could be that 4th & Battery needs to just resubmit under a higher rating, perhaps the 17+ rating, to get approval. That might still prompt a debate about where Apple should draw the line on things like violence and issues of taste when it comes to apps. Unpleasant Horse has some violence but it?s done in a cartoony style. The game allows players to smash more well-adjusted horses and birds to the earth, where they?re fed through ?a perpetual meat-grinder.? Without having seen the game, it?s hard to know what rating it should deserve. But with a lot of violent and unpleasant apps already available in Apple?s mobile marketplace, it?s likely Unpleasant Horse will eventually find a home in the App Store. It?s not exactly the reception 4th & Battery might have wanted, but it shows that PopCap is indeed looking to break away from the more wholesome image of its existing brand. Or perhaps, 4th & Battery intentionally set the rating for the game too low knowing it would get a little attention by being rejected. Now that would be edgy. http://bit.ly/gJTkot From chinyoka.consultant at gmail.com Sun Apr 10 06:49:57 2011 From: chinyoka.consultant at gmail.com (Chinyoka on Macbook) Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2011 07:49:57 +0200 Subject: Reading text in Pages Message-ID: Hi all, It appears I've got a small problem or two which I trust you may help me with. First, it's about reading long documents in Pages continuously. Whenever I do a two-finger flick down for say all, VO will faithfully read to me up to the point where a physical page ends. For instance, when I am reading a 10-page document, VO will read all the contents of Page 1 and stop when it gets to page 2. Is there a setting or a tweak which allows me to just read continuously even between different pages? I like Pages' display of text, but this somehow takes away my breath. This also happens in TextEdit when I am reading a document in RTF or RTFD which is not plain text. With plain text, TextEdit reads the document continuously without any hiccups. This also takes me to a related problem. This time is in TextEdit. While TextEdit may read plain text documents continuously, yet I find it annoying when VO announces "Return New line" whenever there is a paragraph. I thought it should be silent on blank lines when saying all: Is there a setting to disable announcement of blank lines? This only happens in TextEdit: this time Pages seems to hide these blank lines, or at least VO is silent about them. Hey, this seemed to be a mouthful, but I wanted to be clear as possible. I would appreciate if you gonna lead me to pointers and clues to stop this. . Thank you all in advance.

It is called ESPN's streak for the cash. I started without the app, then one day I looked on the app store and found the app by searching for ESPN. The app is pretty well put together, and seems to be accessible. Before you go and download the app, you have to create an ESPN account on http://espn.go.com/ This is the direct link to the registration page. Then you can start playing on the website, I didn't find this to fun, so I downloaded the free app, this was way more fun and a lot easier to deal with. You might have to login before you can join the group I have created. I have created a group called blind streakers you can search for the group on the streak for the cash main site or goto http://streak.espn.go.com/en/group?groupID=184731&entryID=4049278 Thanks and hope to see lots of you joining the group.

Using the find command, you can grab all files with a .c?? extension, then pipe that result to the cp command (or the command of your choice, including tar or zip, rar, etc. Since you want to preserve the file structure, tar would probably be the easiest, but you could have a shell script simply write the files to a scrap file, like names.txt, then tell the archiver of your choice (or heck, a perl script for that matter) to read the file, and copy the files accordingly. Lots of options here. Esther had a good idea, if you take her post, and use find as you tried here, it should do the trick nicely. If you don't have a solution yet, I'll put something together for you to do the job using the minimal amount of pieces. :) From tsiegel at softcon.com Sun Apr 10 20:30:41 2011 From: tsiegel at softcon.com (Travis Siegel) Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2011 14:30:41 -0500 Subject: Uncompressing in bulk In-Reply-To: <2E48C274-DC47-4074-9059-0552B293C94A@mac-access.net> References: <2E48C274-DC47-4074-9059-0552B293C94A@mac-access.net> Message-ID: I know you're not a terminal fan, but uncompressing multiple zip files on the command line is as simple as typing unzip *.zip That's really all there is to it. It would be easy enough to build an apple script that does this using the terminal commands, but allowing selection via finder if it's really a problem, this would be relatively simple.

I guess I just feared the unknown. Commandline computing was a new area to me until recently but, I decided that if I was going to help Gordon to administrate our servers properly, I may as well learn to get my hands dirty.

Thank you very much! Piece of cake. ? It would be easy enough to build an apple script that does this using the terminal commands, but allowing selection via finder if it's really a problem, this would be relatively simple. I'll see if I can throw something together and get it posted in the next few days. I have a couple web interfaces to build first, but since this one shouldn't take long, I may be able to get to it sooner. Please don't go out of your way; I think even a techno-dumbo like me can manage to type "*.zip" after an "un`ip" command. It will be interesting to see what happens with folders. I mean that when you unzip a file in the Finder using Archive Utility, it creates a folder when there are a number of files inside the archive. Thank you again.

Message-ID: <654D235A-ADBC-4AAD-A3C7-E78B32995468@mac-access.net> Hello all For almost the entire time that Gordon and I have owned our iPad, we have been using a couple of "aFrames" which are Aluminium stands for the iPad which allow you to have the iPad either standing up, or laid down on an angle beautifully raised at the back for typing. Well, it seems Griffin has now modified the design of the fantastic "aFrame", and make it suitable for the iPad II. If anybody on list has either the origianl iPad, or the brand new iPad II, you're stark raving bonkers, mad, barmy, out of your mind, demented, insane, (or is it me who is insane)? But you're crazy anyway if you haven't got one of these little beauties. The aFrame is a rugged sturdy aluminium stand, as I said, which folds on a hinge. The cradle of the stand is rubber padded to protect your iPad which fits snugly into the stand whether it's standing up with the legs of the stand fully apart, or whether it's laid down forming a cradle with the iPad positioned just right for typing. You can stand the iPad in either landscape or portrait mode, and it allows you easy access to all connectors and controls. It even allows you to keep the iPads in one of many types of cases so that you get the extra protection. In short, a wonderful product well worth the money. Cost us about ?29 GBP but it's something we have never ever regretted buying.

Using the find command, you can grab all files with a .c?? extension, then pipe that result to the cp command (or the command of your choice, including tar or zip, rar, etc. Since you want to preserve the file structure, tar would probably be the easiest, but you could have a shell script simply write the files to a scrap file, like names.txt, then tell the archiver of your choice (or heck, a perl script for that matter) to read the file, and copy the files accordingly. Lots of options here. Esther had a good idea, if you take her post, and use find as you tried here, it should do the trick nicely. If you don't have a solution yet, I'll put something together for you to do the job using the minimal amount of pieces. :) _______________________________________________ To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access at mac-access.net You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at: The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free!

Mac OS X Keyboard Shortcuts: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1343 There is a separate Apple Knowledge Base article giving "Keyboard shortcuts for Shut down, restart, and sleep": http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2448 In practice, in order to keep from overwhelming new users with lots of keyboard shortcuts, I find that it's easier to tell new users with laptops to simply briefly press the Power button to bring up the dialog window, "Are you sure you want to shut down your computer now?" with the button options for "Restart", "Cancel", "Sleep", and "Shutdown". Then I have them press "R" to restart or "S" to sleep. For dialog windows I press "Escape" to cancel and "Return" to perform the default action, so pressing "Return" here would perform a shutdown. Since you can wake the machine from sleep by pressing any key, I usually press the "Fn" key in the bottom left corner of the keyboard to wake the device. (And I do use the Command-Option-Eject shortcut for sleeping the computer without going through a dialog window on my own computer). The other shortcut I'll usually teach people to use is Command-Option-Escape to force quit applications that aren't responding. This brings up a dialog window that lets you select the app that is not responding (VO-Right arrow to navigate to the table of apps, interact, and choose the app) and force quit.

Gordon On 11 Apr 2011, at 16:35, Esther wrote: Hi Lynne and Others, Those shutdown and restart shortcuts for the Mac were listed in the general Knowledge Base article of Apple Shortcuts I posted for Cait and others on this list near the end of last month (March 21). Mac OS X Keyboard Shortcuts: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1343 There is a separate Apple Knowledge Base article giving "Keyboard shortcuts for Shut down, restart, and sleep": http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2448 In practice, in order to keep from overwhelming new users with lots of keyboard shortcuts, I find that it's easier to tell new users with laptops to simply briefly press the Power button to bring up the dialog window, "Are you sure you want to shut down your computer now?" with the button options for "Restart", "Cancel", "Sleep", and "Shutdown". Then I have them press "R" to restart or "S" to sleep. For dialog windows I press "Escape" to cancel and "Return" to perform the default action, so pressing "Return" here would perform a shutdown. Since you can wake the machine from sleep by pressing any key, I usually press the "Fn" key in the bottom left corner of the keyboard to wake the device. (And I do use the Command-Option-Eject shortcut for sleeping the computer without going through a dialog window on my own computer). The other shortcut I'll usually teach people to use is Command-Option-Escape to force quit applications that aren't responding. This brings up a dialog window that lets you select the app that is not responding (VO-Right arrow to navigate to the table of apps, interact, and choose the app) and force quit.

I just went ahead, and what I get is this. After the partition is set up, I put in my WIndows 7 DVD and let it restart, after the Bootcamp volume is on my desktop. Then, it boots off of the DVD. Windows 7 asks me which partition I want to install to, and I then click the "Drive options (Advanced)" link after selecting Bootcamp in the name column. Then, I click the "Format" link and making sure the Bootcamp volume is still selected, then I click ok to proceed. That's all I do. Then it just installs, which is really a fairly boring process.

The one in your home folder will make them usable by your user id only. If you place them in the root's library folder, then they will be usable by everyone on the system. And, with that said, let me remind folks it really is a good idea to have at least two accounts on your system at all times. One you use for software updates, system maintenance and the like which has administrator access, and then another one you use every day that doesn't have administrator access. Use this one all the time so that if something mean does get into your system (not likely, but it doesn't hurt to be prepared) nothing critical can be broken. Bad software can't break what it can't access, and running as a non administrator user will severely hamper any attempts to break your system by removing major system files. It won't impact your daily usage at all, since no program needs to do administrator type things anyhow, unless it's writing to system files, which only software update should be doing on your system, and not much else. And, anyway, if osx needs to do system type things, it will prompt you for a user-id and password, so you'll know what's happening, the non admin user will simply remove the access of malicious programs if any do manage to get into your system.

But VueScan produces beautifully clear scans, and ABBYY FineReader can handle two pages at a time. I just scan a whole book with VueScan, then FineReader opens automatically and I tell it where to save the output.

The configuration of Windows itself is off topic for this group, but the configuration of the virtual machine is fine.

Anything Mac OS and iOS is on topic for this group. In the case of virtualisation applications such as Fusion and Parallels Desktop, the configuration of the applications themselves, plus the configuration of the virtual machines is on topic. However, the configuration of Windows or any other operating systems within that virtual machine is off topic.

I have about 35 apps, about 20 of which I've gone through thoroughly and found mnostly inaccessible ones of those.

If you are using any of these apps with great success, please share your secret. I've contacted developers of all of these apps, provided comments about poor performance with VoiceOver, and hope they'll improve it.

On many sites, each individual web page can stand alone so that clients can enter the system from many levels and be able to navigate from wherever they came in to other parts of the site. Consequently, many of the same links and instructional text repeat each time one loads a new page. For example, there is a very chatty tutorial on how to navigate the Microsoft ribbon at the top of the page. This is really not a safari issue as safari is only relating what it just received. Our brains are the only part of the equation that remembers we just heard all this and are getting really tired of hearing it again. Is there any sort of setting for voiceover that would at least remember the last text and just report new links or information? I did go in to the Voiceover menu as in VO-F8 and uncheckd the box under the heading of web that tells Voiceover to read incoming web pages. This also had the side effect of killing off the ability to click on any of the links on a given page. As soon as I checked that box again, the site in question worked normally. What I expected to happen was that it would not automatically read the page but navigation would be uneffected. Having to listen to and kill all this verbose output has another effect. It makes one take longer to go through a given task and some sites have an inactivity timer that dumps you off if you take too long to do whatever you came to this site to do so the war against auditory chaff continues. As a command-line user for about 20 years, I find listening to unwanted repetition one of the biggest annoyances of navigating in the graphical world. Seldom ever does one just hear the relevant information first but instead it's 3 minutes of chaff and 1 little nugget on some pages. At least we can press Alt or Shift or even Control to abort the monolog, but that always runs the risk of missing some new piece of knowledge tacked on at the end. I will not be surprised if there is no way to filter out this sort of thing because it is complex to do without introducing problems of its own.

I'm also wondering about another approach, that is are there accessible alternatives to the apps you mention? As I know nothing about them I can't offer an answer to my own question I remember the stink some people kicked up about the Awareness application last year. The fact that the developers went out of their way to produce a VoiceOver friendly version was apparently totally misrepresented by a magazine article and the author or the owners of the company took a hell of a lot of needless flack over that. My point is that, whilst it's great if users can liaise with developers to produce accessible applications for any platform, care must be taken and people need to remember that the developer is under no obligation to make their applications accessible. And it's for that reason that we always try to remain very polite and cooperative when dealing with developers. It pays off in a lot of cases, as members of this group will shortly discover. Something is being finalised between us here at Mac Access Dot Net and a software developer which will, we hope, be to our mutual benefit and that of our members.

It does keep track of visited links on web pages, but by its nature it parses everything on the web page. But I think that it only tracks whether you've visited links from a particular web page -- not whether or not you've visited those same links before from some other path. That's a browser issue. Your explanation of what you were trying to do some weeks ago made perfect sense, I can understand not wanting to hear extraneous information repeated. However, short of finding the optimal navigation track to take for a site, and using your control key to interrupt the discourse, and type ahead to quickly navigate the links you want, I don't know of a good solution. This reminds me of the web sites that give you advice on the shortest number of steps you need to take to get in touch with a human recipient, after being prompted to press all sorts of codes. If this were a command line situation, you could capture the information and send the results to "diff", and only look at the new information. Not sure how you would proceed on a web site.

Gordon has tested Bento 2, 3 and now 4 on the Mac. Be aware that the version 4 we tested is not the light version which I think is the one you get when you buy it in the App Store. This is the full version. Anyway, we can report now that Bento 3 is about 95% accessible, with just a couple of scroll bars which created an issue or two on rare occasions. Bento 4, however, is 100% accessible in all fields. So if you are looking for a good database manager, look no further.

I'm guessing that in most cases the answer is no, but with text output you could "diff" the results. This falls into the category of unix open source for Mac.

Unfortunately, I've not found many iPad apps that are VoiceOver accessible. Above and beyond my original list; I've taken a thorough look at, tested, and provided suggestions to iPad app developers of: ABC Player, Tweet Library, WebEx, Calculator Pro, Jetsetter, TED, Twipple All of which fit one of the following categories: * Completely inaccessible * Mostly inaccessible * Somewhat inaccessible I'm more than open to suggestions of iPad VoiceOver accessible apps, tips on using these apsp that I've deemed to be inaccessible, or anything about iPad with VoiceOver.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Justin, That was probably my post about being able to download ePub files directly into iBooks. What this means is that if you access the ePub files as links in web pages (which can be to your MobileMe account or to a Dropbox account), and try to activate the links in Safari on your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad, you'll be given the option to open the file and download directly in iBooks. You can also open ePub files (or PDF files) that you append to mail messages that you read on your iOS device directly in iBooks, when you double tap on the attachments. You're presented with the same range of options to Open in a specific app (probably iBooks, or another program if you last opened this file type in a different app, like Kobo Books or Stanza.) The ability to open such ePub files in iBooks from web pages in Safari means that if a publisher provides download links to ePub files on a web site, and you point Safari on your iOS device to that web URL, you'll be able to double tap the links and download directly to iBooks. Actually, there will be an option that says "Open in iBooks" and another that will allow you to "Open in Other" where you'll get a list of all the apps that you have loaded that your iOS device recognizes can open ePub books. I've checked this out on several different sites, including my own MobileMe site. I haven't tested this out for other browser apps on the iOS devices (like Atomic Browser or Perfect Browser). You can go read the article in TidBITS: "iBooks Now Opens EPUB Files Directly" http://www.tidbits.com/article/12100 If you're using Safari, you can press Command-Shift-R to read the main article in Safari Reader.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <2BD2C62F-DF83-4D50-9BE9-2BBFA5DE7863@mac.com> Hi Justin, Books on Board at: http://www.booksonboard.com/ uses Adobe Digital Editions for its digital rights management (DRM) scheme. Any application that I've tried that uses ADE for its DRM has not been accessible. With Bluefire reader, which is what the U.S. public libraries use for downloadable ebooks -- either that or the OverDrive app -- none of the text can be read. You can navigate through the app and select books, but as soon as you try to display it on the screen, the text is not exposed to VoiceOver. If you actually take a screen capture and send it to an OCR program like Prizmo you can find out the actual text on a page, but since you can't navigate through the book and since VoiceOver won't read anything, it doesn't do much good. There are several sources of ePub books that do not use DRM. The Take Control Books produce ePub editions without DRM. So does O'Reilly. The Baen Free Library of science fiction books (free to blind and others with reading disabilities) is another example. (They also sell ebooks commercially in many formats, all without DRM; I know Jane likes this site.) I've heard that you can read the Kobo epub books in other ereader apps, but I haven't tried this. My experience is that any app that is designed to handle Adobe's ADE format will not be accessible for reading books without DRM either. I have some very old Random House books that were issued through Stanza when I first got my iPod Touch. I think these may have DRM, but they are readable with Stanza. (Random House spearheaded the publishers' efforts to promote Stanza as an eReader platform on the iPhone before Amazon produced its Kindle.) Stanza was meant to accommodate both DRM and DRM-free ebooks, and to convert between the multiple eBook formats, which is why so many VoiceOver users of iOS devices have been using Stanza's Desktop app to convert text to ePub, even if they never think about using Stanza as an eReader on the iPhone.

My original reason for trying out Perfect Browser is that I wanted to check MobileMe web accessibility on iOS devices, and you can't open the MobileMe web pages in Safari. One of the TidBITS editors mentioned that you could use Perfect Browser. If you want to try out another browser, the two that have been most discussed are Atomic Browser ($0.99) and iCab Mobile (Web Browser) ($1.99). The typical reasons for trying these are the support for tabbed browsing and, on the iPhone or iPod Touch, you can make the browser display results as though you were using Desktop Safari. This was a way to get more detail than the Mobile Safari version web pages would give you for the iPhone. There are a huge number of settings options to explore, however. Everything I tried was accessible, but I don't use this a lot. I have found some odd web pages that seem to display in weird fashion on the iPad. (There's one web site called ireaderreview that discusses the Kindle and other ebook readers that has recently developed a really weird page display when viewed on the iPad -- I think you have to toggle VoiceOver off and swipe to reach the content, and so that's an instance where I tried viewing the page in Atomic Browser instead, where it behaves like a normal web page.) Atomic Browser was discussed on some other lists back in November of last year. According to some reviews, it displays faster than Safari. (None of these reviews were written by VoiceOver users). I'd take a look at either this or iCab if you want to explore.

Message-ID: <379A785C-C0EB-461F-A1DF-EDEB79036770@mac-access.net> Hello everybody Thanks to Gordon Atkinson, a silent but no less valued list member. Gordon doesn't currently own a Mac; but found this gem and I thought I would pass it on. He sent this to Gordon, (my Gordon, that is), and it's a really interesting article for Mac users. "Jaksta is a breeze to use - 9 out of 10" -Mac Tech, February, 2011 The First-Ever Streaming Media Recorder and Converter for Mac You know how recording and converting online streaming audio and video on Windows PCs is pretty easy and convenient with Applian products? Now you can enjoy the same freedoms and convenience on the Mac, thanks to Jaksta for Mac-the world's first streaming media recorder and converter designed specifically for Macintosh. Jaksta supports all popular stream formats and protocols, enabling it to capture audio and video from your favorite websites like YouTube, Pandora, and Facebook. Using Jaksta couldn't be easier-just open it, and then play the video or audio you'd like to capture. Jaksta will grab the files directly from the websites where they're hosted, recording the media up to ten times faster than playback speed. This technique ensures that the quality of the recorded files matches that of the originals. In addition to making exact copies of the original media, Jaksta can automatically convert the downloaded files to a variety of devices, including iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, PS3, and Android. Jaksta is available at for $49.95. Try a free demo and see for yourself how Jaksta has revolutionized streaming media recording for Macs. Requirements Jaksta supports Mac OSX 10.5 or later on any Mac with an Intel processor. We are going to look at this software; thank you again Gordon. Just one more thing; if anybody on list has queries such as this, could you send them to the support address, rather than our private addresses. That would be helpful.

If you can find a Microsoft Sharepoint site that does this, it is a perfect example. Each ribbon has instructions on how to navigate it with keyboard commands which is a wonderful thing but it takes probably a minute or so to just let it play and I may have heard it all not 30 seconds ago so one's foot begins to tap impatiently as the litany repeats again and again. Voiceover under snowleopard is defaulted to read each new page as it loads and I really appreciate that. It would be better if we could modify that behavior to make it not repeat any blocks of text recently stored, say from the previous page to now. This would make the experience more like conversation and less like trying to force our auditory processing system to behave like vision. There are times when that is necessary, but not all the time so we should be able to turn the filter on and off at will or it will also bite. There is a school of thought that is as old as computing, itself, that says we humans should just get used to the way machines interact with us even though we built the machines and designed the input/output systems. The graphical user interface has been a challenge to make accessible because it doesn't work like speech which is sequential rather than parallel. If all computer folk were blind, the GUI would have never happened but it did and systems like Voiceover and the Windows screen readers have solved a huge number of issues but we humans are still wired the same way as we have been for millions of years and we hear things one thing at a time. Reducing auditory clutter or chaff makes the wheat or gold nuggets come to the surface more easily and quickly so we can all do our jobs more efficiently. If there is no way to block what I call nuisance text, then that should be the next frontier. We have an application here in which one must log in and change one's password every 4 months. It wins the grand prize and I wish I could share that site with you, but I would get in a lot of trouble if I did. It takes a good 5 minutes to listen to each new page and 98% of it is unchanged from the previous page except the very last thing you hear is that your new password didn't make it in because it uses too much information from the previous password or that the change was successful and you can now close the application. This application also has a timer that has bitten me more than once because I just didn't get the password changed fast enough. Had there been a nuisance filter, it would have been a 1 or 2 minute operation in total. Nicolai Svendsen writes: > Hello! > > Can you please give an example of a website?

OK going by what you've said you already got a password and user name! So when you are on the home page of the sight and there should be a place to put your name and password ! It will say something like column 1 user name column 2 user name edit text! When on that edit text field make sure your mouse cursor is there as well! [with vo+fn+command+f5 ] If you do not have your mouse cursor following your vo cursor! Then when the mouse cursor is there do a mouse click! [ vo+shift+spacebar ] Then you can enter your user name as normal! Then move to the password field and do the same Mouse click and you'll get the clicking sound as you put in the password!

I like it, although there's two things I haven't been able to figure out as of yet: 1. How do you play your files it downloaded within the program? Says you can right click but I thought we'd at least be able to hit VO-SHFT-M to get that. 2. Has anyone figured out how to convert to the specified format that you can enable in preferences? With these two issues solved and figured out, it's yet another way to get music. Confirmed to work with Rhapsody at least with getting the audio but I guess it has problems tagging them. I guess I can manually do that. It also works with Pandora but I wonder if it can get the audio from an app such as PeerCast or PianoPub.

Creating another account for everyday use that does not have admin rights will severely restrict what bad or malintentioned software can do if it does manage to get into your system. I do have a second account for verification purposes (I.E. vo is broken, and I need to know if it's a system problem or an account issue) but for my purposes, I actually do use an admin account on this machine, but that's because this one is the family machine, and I'm always being asked to fix things, and it's tough to do some of those things w/o admin access. On my own machine, I do have the two account setup, and use the admin one for updates and such, and the other account for normal everyday things (most of the time) :) Having fast user switching enabled makes it quick and easy to switch between admin and non-admin accounts too, so that makes it fairly easy to get at things if it becomes necessary.

Osx already plays midi files. Just click on them in finder, or use the preview option (by pressing space when the file is highlighted in finder) and they will play just fine. I don't remember if they open in quicktime or itunes by default, but either way, when not using the preview option, they do load up in a program, and you can fast forward, rewind, pause, and the like.

However, whenever I am writing a document in an email or in any other app, and write a word like "realise", the word is flagged as an error. How do I make it apply my language options to all apps? I am worried because some of the documents I prepare are professional in nature and people around here are strict with the usage of English spelling. I believe that if you want to use British English as the default spelling rule for your spell checker under Snow Leopard, you'll need to set this under System Preferences > Language & Text > Text by pressing the pop up button for "Spelling" that is set to "Automatic by Language" and then pressing "s" (to move to the "Setup?" option at the bottom of this menu) and return. Navigate to the table in this dialog window, which will tell you to drag languages into the order you prefer, and select those that should be used when spelling is being checked automatically by language, and interact. Under the entry which is checked for "English", uncheck the check box for "U.S. English" (VO-Space), then navigate down to the entry for "British English" and check that check box (VO-Space). I suspect that although you may have included "English" as one of the languages (on the "Language" tab of the "Language & Text" pane), and checked "British" (or "U.S." or "Canadian English" or "Australian") under the "Input Sources" tab -- which controls the input keyboard layout setup when you switch input languages -- that you haven't specified anything under the "Text" tab (which allows you to set the spelling convention used.) For British users of Macs, this option would normally be enabled by default, when they set up their computer. Just for completeness, the remaining tab, "Formats", on the "Language & Text" pane allows you to set default measurement units (currency, length, weight, etc.) and format for reporting date and time according to your "Region" selection. I think the spell checker setting applies to all applications, although I read that if may not be applied to Pages in iWork '07 (if anyone is using this old version), or to Word '08 for Mac (which is not accessible in any case). I find Snow Leopard's ability to identify spell checking in different languages quite useful. If I'm in a TextEdit window and typing in French, it will often add the correct accents to words without my having to explicitly type them in. You may want to experiment with this, or perhaps other users can give you more suggestions since I use U.S. English spelling. HTH.

Sure I had not seen anything about "Setup" till you pointed out the steps. It worked like a charm that I am one of the happiest people on the planet after these easy to follow instructions. Well, I setup my computer in a hurry and I guess US English was the default (even on my iPhone it appears as the default, but I quickly figured out how to set it up to British). What's fun though is that with other operating system, once it figures your region as Zimbabwe, it automatically switches to British, so I was thinking it would do the same on Mac. Anyway, thanks for this and I am happy like nobody's business!

However, whenever I am writing a document in an email or in any other app, and write a word like "realise", the word is flagged as an error. How do I make it apply my language options to all apps? I am worried because some of the documents I prepare are professional in nature and people around here are strict with the usage of English spelling. > > I believe that if you want to use British English as the default spelling rule for your spell checker under Snow Leopard, you'll need to set this under System Preferences > Language & Text > Text by pressing the pop up button for "Spelling" that is set to "Automatic by Language" and then pressing "s" (to move to the "Setup?" option at the bottom of this menu) and return. Navigate to the table in this dialog window, which will tell you to drag languages into the order you prefer, and select those that should be used when spelling is being checked automatically by language, and interact. Under the entry which is checked for "English", uncheck the check box for "U.S. English" (VO-Space), then navigate down to the entry for "British English" and check that check box (VO-Space). I suspect that although you may have included "English" as one of the languages (on the "Language" tab of the "Language & Text" pane), and checked "British" (or "U.S." or "Canadian English" or "Australian") under the "Input Sources" tab -- which controls the input keyboard layout setup when you switch input languages -- that you haven't specified anything under the "Text" tab (which allows you to set the spelling convention used.) > > For British users of Macs, this option would normally be enabled by default, when they set up their computer. Just for completeness, the remaining tab, "Formats", on the "Language & Text" pane allows you to set default measurement units (currency, length, weight, etc.) and format for reporting date and time according to your "Region" selection. > > I think the spell checker setting applies to all applications, although I read that if may not be applied to Pages in iWork '07 (if anyone is using this old version), or to Word '08 for Mac (which is not accessible in any case). I find Snow Leopard's ability to identify spell checking in different languages quite useful. If I'm in a TextEdit window and typing in French, it will often add the correct accents to words without my having to explicitly type them in. > > You may want to experiment with this, or perhaps other users can give you more suggestions since I use U.S. English spelling. > > HTH.

We are checking this. Greetings all, I wish to transfer all my music over to my new iMac, but don't necessarily want it going into iTunes, rather choosing to do this as and when I require it. Where then is the best place to store it? There is approximately 150GB of music, and I am not keen to import that lot into iTunes all in one go. Many thanks, and apologies if this question seems rather simple to some of you experts, but I am very new to the world of the Mac.

When I go into Pages, I am greeted with several templates I can execute from newsletters to newspapers, graphics and all kinds of other interesting layouts. If I choose any of these, does it mean that what I then type ends up in that format, for example, newsletter or newspaper style? So far, I have chosen the blank template to practice with. Any help welcome as I am very new to this environment, and apologise in advance for what may appear to be simple to some of you experts! Thank you very much.

If any of you are national park enthusiasts like me, you may want to get any or all of these 5 apps for national parks. I haven't used any yet so don't know how VoiceOver friendly they are. But, heck, they're free this week. Jeff P.S. just search the App Store using the term Chimani to find all 5. > Chimani Announces Free iPhone Apps for National Park Week http://www.benzinga.com/press-releases/11/04/p999101/chimani-announces-free-iphone-apps-for-national-park-week Posted on 04/13/11 at 7:00am Download all the national park apps for free between April 16-24. Yarmouth, ME (Vocus/PRWEB) April 13, 2011 Chimani, LLC announced today that all iPhone national park apps will be free during National Park Week, which runs from April 16-24. The Android versions of each national park app will be available for only $.99 cents. The Chimani national park apps normally sell for between $4.99-$9.99 each. The Chimani suite of national park apps include Acadia National Park, Cape Cod National Seashore, Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Grand Canyon National Park and Yosemite National Park. "Entrance to the national parks is free, and so too should our apps", says Chimani President, Kerry Gallivan. "Chimani develops apps for national parks because they are special ? and we want to encourage as many people as possible to get out and enjoy them.? Each of the five national park apps are an indispensable resource for anyone exploring some of the most visited national parks. Each delivers constantly updated content, including ranger led activities, free shuttle bus schedules and news alerts. Users can view sunset and sunrise times for the most memorable scenic overlooks, access tide schedules along the coast, review lodging options, plan hikes, and much, much more. Each of the apps boasts a rich and impressive map interface that is custom-made, GPS enabled, and includes all hiking trails in the parks. Designed from the ground-up using the National Park Service geographic information system data, the maps are all pre-installed in the app and work without any cell or WiFi connection. ?When Google Maps stops working, Chimani maps begin.? says, Kerry Gallivan. ?Most smartphone users who visit the national parks find their traditional navigation tools are useless because they depend on a cell or WiFi connection. The Chimani national park apps are designed to work completely offline.? Kerry Gallivan, Chimani's President, knows a thing or two about connectivity challenges. In the early nineties he worked in Sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia setting up remote computer networks for health workers. ?When designing the Chimani national park apps, I applied many of the same lessons I learned by living overseas in places such as Zimbabwe and Nepal.? The national park apps also include an audio tour designed to work while visitors are driving, walking or taking the shuttle buses around the parks. All content is written by professional travel writers and include the most essential information, such as the location of every restroom. ?The #1 most asked question in every national park is the location of the closest restroom?, says Kerry Gallivan. ?Chimani apps give you just-in-time information, just in time!? Each of the Chimani iPhone apps can be downloaded from Apple's iTunes App Store and the Android versions from the Android Marketplace (keyword: "chimani"). The iPhone apps will be free, and Android version only $.99 cents, for the entire National Park Week which runs from April 16-26. After that, the apps will return to the regular price of $4.99-$9.99. __._,_.___ Reply to sender | Reply to group | Reply via web post | Start a New Topic Messages in this topic (1) RECENT ACTIVITY: New Members 8 Visit Your Group This group is moderated by Donna Goodin.

I don't know but what I can see is that the menu system is certainly very accessible, plenty of features, functions and shortcuts. Preference panes are well laid out. For $40.00? If Reaper can be used then its a real bargain, looks promising.

But I don't want to put everything into iTunes, rather, be able to choose what I want to make up playlists. Where then would be the best place to store the music I send over without putting everything into iTunes? Perhaps this sounds a novice question, but that's exactly what I am, so please forgive me, and thank you in advance for your help.

Whenever I open Pages, I am greeted with a selection of templates that range from newsletters to newspapers and all sorts of other weird and wonderful topics, as well as the blank one I generally choose to practice with. My questions then: if I choose a template such as a newspaper or newsletter, for example, does it mean that everything I do within that template will contain that layout? If these templates are not accessible, however, is there a way of bypassing them when Pages opens? Again, I am a novice to the Mac, so apologies in advance for what may seem basic questions to some of you experts.

You can either get just the UK version or the Europe version which, of course, is more expensive. The beauty of Navigon is that its maps are held on the iPhone so you don't waste your data allowance when using it. With Navigon, you can plan a route and check where you are using the Direct Help feature. However, it does not have a public transport option. As for Kapten, I use this app, too, but only for planning trips using public transport. I find it pretty good for that here in France, but I don't know how good it is in the UK.

Create your own file structures, there's nothing that says you need to use itunes and it's organization methods. You can turn that nonsense off from the preferences (command-comma), then itunes will leave your music exactly where you put it. For instance, I have my audio books in a completely separate location from the music I have in itunes. I dohave my stuff organized into artist/album folders, but itunes sometimes used to move things around if the tags on the files didn't match my file structure, and it drove me nuts. I actually lost several songs because of this, due to overzealous programs removing things I didn't tell them to remove, and a few typos on my part, so I have told itunes to leave my files alone, and now they stay where I put them. I like that much better. Now I have my audio books in one place, music in another, and videos in yet another (different partitions actually) I could of course do this via sim-links, but I just find it simpler to put them where I want them without resorting to file system tricks to keep my library organized. My stuff from audible is in one folder, and my stuff from ripped cds is somewhere else, and downloaded material from other sources is in yet another location, something itunes auto organization routines would not allow. So, the short answer to your question is to turn off itunes organization options, (keep itunes library organized or something similar) then you can import just the stuff you want as you want it, and itunes will leave it where it is, which means you can put it anywhere you like without regard for how itunes will deal with it.

Message-ID: <4daf53e7.8735e50a.7c2c.2336@mx.google.com> I just did a little research and this is what I have come up with. VMWare wants $80 USD for version 3.0. Newegg will sell me the same version on a CD for $70. However, it seems 3.1 is actually the current version and to get that you have to get it from VMWare for $100 which includes a year of updates. Now, I don't mind paying some extra for the assurance of updates but I mind very much having to pay extra just to get the most recent version while they're still selling an older version.

I'd guess the upgrade price from 3.0 to 3.1 is either free, or somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 bucks if it isn't free. Really, check around the site, often the upgrade pricing is not on the same page as the main prices, sometimes you need to dig a bit to find them.

So, there ya go, 39.95 to upgrade from 2.x to 3.0, so my guess is that upgrading from 3.0 to 3.1 is a free upgrade, since it's not mentioned anywhere on the site, but this is only a guess, and is of course open to intrepretation. :) But, this does prove that vmware offers upgrade pricing. The page on their site where this upgrade is mentioned is: http://www.vmware.com/vmwarestore/upgrades/ So, feel free to check it out. Also, they do have forums, you could always join the forums and either ask directly, or search for others who have already asked the question. I'd do it myself, but I have no interest (at the moment) in vmware, so for me, it's not worth the hassle of joining just to find out. :) Of course, it's probably just as likely I can search w/o becoming a member, but I didn't check.

You can either get just the UK version or the Europe version which, of course, is more expensive. The beauty of Navigon is that its maps are held on the iPhone so you don't waste your data allowance when using it. With Navigon, you can plan a route and check where you are using the Direct Help feature. However, it does not have a public transport option. As for Kapten, I use this app, too, but only for planning trips using public transport. I find it pretty good for that here in France, but I don't know how good it is in the UK.

As a new Mac user though, where do I go to turn off these preferences as this is exactly what I want to do, just like your own structure. I have so much music that I don't want its order, which is alphabetical folders, being screwed up. I like to know where to get it so I can move it when and where I want. Good one!

Create your own file structures, there's nothing that says you need to use itunes and it's organization methods. You can turn that nonsense off from the preferences (command-comma), then itunes will leave your music exactly where you put it. For instance, I have my audio books in a completely separate location from the music I have in itunes. I dohave my stuff organized into artist/album folders, but itunes sometimes used to move things around if the tags on the files didn't match my file structure, and it drove me nuts. I actually lost several songs because of this, due to overzealous programs removing things I didn't tell them to remove, and a few typos on my part, so I have told itunes to leave my files alone, and now they stay where I put them. I like that much better. Now I have my audio books in one place, music in another, and videos in yet another (different partitions actually) I could of course do this via sim-links, but I just find it simpler to put them where I want them without resorting to file system tricks to keep my library organized. My stuff from audible is in one folder, and my stuff from ripped cds is somewhere else, and downloaded material from other sources is in yet another location, something itunes auto organization routines would not allow. So, the short answer to your question is to turn off itunes organization options, (keep itunes library organized or something similar) then you can import just the stuff you want as you want it, and itunes will leave it where it is, which means you can put it anywhere you like without regard for how itunes will deal with it. _______________________________________________ To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access at mac-access.net You can find a monthly formatted archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at: The Mac-Access mailing list is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free!

Are you referring to the "chord" which plays when you turn on your Mac on? If so, I don't think it can be changed as it's part of the firmware and it happens as soon as the Mac does its "POST", ("Power On Self Test") Lynne On 22 Apr 2011, at 12:32, Roger Firman wrote: Hello, I'll probably not describe this brilliantly, however, I'll have a go.

Message-ID: Hello everybody; with particular emphasis on those who bought Take Control books from us at any time. We have just become the victim, yet again, of the death of a Western Digital hard drive. This is the final such drive in our array, and will not be replaced with a similar model. In fairness, this drive has been running continuously, 24/7/365, since January 2002, so it's given rather a lot of service. However, it chose quite an inconvenient time to expire, as it appears we didn't have it backed up which, in itself, is a very unusual occurrence for us here at Mac Access Dot Net. So to the problem; this drive was the home of the Take Control bookshelves. So we need to re-create everybody's libraries. No problem; it can be done. But we would be grateful if everybody who bought books from us at any time in the passed please send us a list of the books they bought so that we can verify its contents with our database and therefore, we can re-create the bookshelf. Please do not, I repeat, do not send your list to the group. That has happened in the past; people hitting the Reply button and simply being too lazy or forgetful, which ever it might be, ;-) to modify the recipient's address. So, please send your list to if you want your bookshelf back. No list, no bookshelf; that's how it is. Thank you.

It's hard to read your messages sometimes Sarah because words are split and it looks a little garbled. Not a criticism, just thought you aught to know. Yes; you can turn down the volume but that isn't the same as muting the sound really. What happens when you're system boots? If you have no Braille, no vision and, therefore, rely on speech totally, you're going to get no audio at boot-up. I'm guessing but I would think that application of Roger's does exactly that; turn down the volume and then turn it up again. I am no expert; and somebody with more knowledge must feel very free to correct me. But it's fact; the audio is played long before the operating system boots. So other than turning down the volume, it simply isn't possible to tinker with it. I asked Apple about this very thing a long time ago because our servers play the sound via their speakers even if there is a 3.5MM stereo jack in the headphones/line out socket and I wanted to stop it. I was told that it isn't possible to stop or reroute it because it's firmware controlled. That is why I am sure Roger is mistaken.

We need to set the library to a network resource so that it's available to all of our machines. But I can't find a way to browse to the library; so I tried entering it manually by typing in: /Volumes/volume name/iTunes/iTunes Library where = the actual name of the volume. But when I try to use iTunes, it's not apparently using that library even though it is set. The contents are all blank, and all I have are the intro texts and a tutorial button. Can anybody tell me please how I can fix this? It really is causing problems as it's preventing a lot of things from working, especially our new Squeezebox Boom.

Message-ID: <0D3B9E5C1E744DD8987FCD2C7C58BD49@FABIAN2> Hi all, Some will know of my questions and frustrations around syncing Outlook Express (Windows Address Book) contacts to my IPod Touch and how, in some desperation, I ended up importing those contacts into Outlook. However, for whatever reason, that did not work and obviously the information itself was missed when I synced using Itunes with Windows and my IPod. Tearing my hair out a little, I tried again. This time, using Jaws 12 (for any who need to know), I was able to tab around and then cursor down the relevant combo box, which I hadn't been able to do with Jaws 10). I eventually found that tick box for Windows Address Book and was in business! Yahaha! I have only checked at random two contacts but these appeared to be fine and I am so pleased it has worked. Thank you to all who suffered my constant questions in this respect. Well, it's certainly got me to be a little familiar with ITunes, which I only like when it's working properly for me -- Carol P From mattchao at verizon.net Sat Apr 23 19:06:09 2011 From: mattchao at verizon.net (Matthew Chao) Date: Sat, 23 Apr 2011 14:06:09 -0400 Subject: getting Cursor to Announce Letters Instead of Words in VoiceOver Message-ID: Hi, Folks!

I know how to do this on the iPhone but I still get Apps into the wrong folder and extra spurious folders get created from time to time which are tricky to get rid of. I have just been playing wit the iPhone Explorer Ap on my iMac. As it snake suggests this lets you browse files on your iPhone as if the iPhone were a normal external disk. I can see how to locate my iPhone Apps using iPhone Explorer and wonder if this, or a similar iMac App, could b eased to allocate iPHone Apps to the appropriate iPHone folders. Using iPHone Explorer I can see how to locate my iPHone Apps but have not yet figured out how to determine which folder each App is in and ideally modify that. Any thoughts?

It has one nice feature which Navigon lacks which is that the Tom Tom help me function tells you where you are relative to the nearest two cross streets e.g. "I am on Kingsway between rufus Close 20 yards and Lake road 350 yards". However when I try to use the Tom Tom App for turn by turn directions on a walking route it keeps telling me to "Turn around when possible" even when I know I am heading in the correct direction. Do you know why it does this and what I can do to stop it? I could simply ignore these directions but sometimes the instruction to turn around might be correct! If I knowingly deviate from the route Tom Tom has calculated will Tom Tom automatically calculate a new route after a while or will it keep trying to direct me back to its originally calculated route? Many thanks for any tips on using tom Tom for walking routes.

In this area I think Tom Tom is better but Navigon does not constantly tell you to turn around! I think the Navigon turn by turn instructions are more accurate and less confusing than those of tom Tom. If you try to get the best of both worlds by having them both running at the same time then GPS accuracy is greatly reduced to the extent that they claim you are off road when you are clearly on the road! I await the next release of Kapten to see how that copes. Currently it it just tells you which street you are on and not whereabouts on that street. All the best....

All modern-day Mac machines have audio inputs and outputs, both digital and analogue though if you're into high quality audio you'll want to look at some external audio devices, a wide range of microphones, the Imic sound card and so on. How big a hard drive? Depends on how much audio you're going to process, I do a lot of audio work and my Imac has a 300GB drive though I have additional hard drive storage connected to my Mac systemOn 27/04/2011 3:02 PM, Atlasonic Productions wrote: > Hi, > > Is an apple mac mini good enough for audio production? > If so, how much memory and how big the hard drive should be, please. > Thanks for your help. > > Hatch. > > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dane Trethowan" > > To: "Mac OSX & iOS Accessibility" > Sent: Wednesday, April 27, 2011 4:59 AM > Subject: Re: Apple TV and Subscribing to Sky.FM > > >> No it isn't exactly what I was asking but you've answered my question >> by the look of things all the same . >> >> >> >> On 27/04/2011 1:49 PM, Mary Otten wrote: >>> I had to go to the sky.fm site to subscribe, and I don't see a way >>> to do that on the Apple tv.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Annie, I think there are few accessories for the iPad 2 except for the redesigned dock (the one without a keyboard). I find that I can still record directly to the iPad using a Griffin iMic connected to the USB connector of the iPad Camera Connection Kit. But I'm not sure whether this works with USB Mics after the iOS 4.2 update, although I have the impression from the Audiofile Engineering forums (makers of the FiRe field recording app) that users can still use the iMic connection to connect from an audio output source. But I know that the iPhone 4 and 4G iPod Touch can't use the Camera Connection Kit, and that some of the flexibility for the iPad 1 went away with the iOS 4.2 update. (Before then, I could connect a USB keyboard, and also data card readers, although I still could only transfer from these to the Photo Album section; afterwards I get "Device not supported" warnings. This is supposedly what happened to a lot of USB mics that used to work through the Camera Connection Kit, but I don't know whether any of them still work.) One new mic that does work with the iPad, and also the iPhone and iPod Touch, is the iRig Mic: ? Article at AppAdvice: 1K Multimedia's iRig Mic is Now Shipping http://appadvice.com/appnn/2011/03/ik-multimedias-irig-mic-shipping ? iLounge News (April 21, 2011) with link to their earlier review of device and software http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/mobile/news/ik-multimedia-releases-irig-recorder/ ? Product site: http://www.ikmultimedia.com/irigmic/features/ The interesting feature is that the audio in is split, so you can plug in a headset to monitor. If you use the dock connector for a microphone, like the Blue Mikey (only for iPhone 3GS and earlier models -- not the 4G devices and iPads), sound (including VoiceOver) is redirected. But the iRig plugs into the headset jack, so you can run a second headset (one that does not have attached Mic, or you get feedback pickup) into the split input of the iRig Mic plug. VoiceOver may still get picked up by the iRig Mic, if you don't mute it, but it means that depending on the app, you can toggle VoiceOver on and off, and still get information when your recording is finished. Hopefully, other users can tell you about the experience of using Braille displays with the iPad.

You get over 30 free radio stations from Sky.FM in very good quality. If you're prepared to upgrade to the "Sky.FM Premium" service you get more stations with even better quality and commercial free listening. The App will help you upgrade if you don't already have a "Sky.FM" Premium account. Extra features of the Premium service also include customizable playlists, hear what you want when you want it. If anyone knows of any other radio services around then please let me know, I believe there's one called Pandora or something, is this correct? Cheers!

Okay, if you have a Squeezebox Server or "My Squeezebox" account with various Squeezebox players assigned such as Boom or Duet - and you want a very nice Ipad app to manage everything - then look no further than Ipenghd which can be found in the Itunes store. Its not a free app but certainly worth the $05.00 you'll pay. The app is completely accessible so far as I'm aware and also comes with tutorials, help files, manuals and other stuff to help you get the best out of your Squeezebox and its players. What I really like about this app is the way you can control the Players, you can for example switch them between servers and "My Squeezebox" accounts if you have multiple, this can be useful if you're taking the Squeezebox player or players to other locations, want to switch to "My Squeezebox" account if server is down etc. Sent from my iPad From motten53 at gmail.com Thu Apr 28 02:13:39 2011 From: motten53 at gmail.com (Mary Otten) Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 18:13:39 -0700 Subject: sky.fm app for Iphone and Ipad is accessible In-Reply-To: <1FD85143-6C89-4E51-AB9A-8F44DFF30CD3@internode.on.net> References: <1FD85143-6C89-4E51-AB9A-8F44DFF30CD3@internode.on.net> Message-ID: Yes, there is a pandora app, but I think it is USA only.

Mac Access Dot Net is the official trading partner of BPS and, as such, Gordon and I are proud to be handling all of the network administration for the company. So, you may find the following of use; and read on for discount links on the rest of their software range: BPS Email forum may be found by: 1. Sending a message to with the word "subscribe", (without the quotes) in the subject line. 2. Visiting the list's dedicated web page at: 3. Going directly to the subscriber option page at: Follow the links and you'll be able to join the group as one of its founder members. I should point out that this group might seem strange to some of you because it is not intended for blind users only, nor will it ever be. It is probable that we will establish a secondary coup devoted specifically to accessibility in their products; but we urge you to join the main group as well. Now, discount links; Mac Access Dot Net members may purchase all of BPS software at a discounted rate on the usual price. This deal took some work to negotiate and I hope Mac Access members will support this small but enthusiastic developer. Yuriy Georgiev is keen to add/improve accessibility in all of his products. So, feel free to take advantage of the following: 1. sBackup may be purchased here: < http://bitpersecond.com/bps/sbackup_macaccessnet.html> reduced from $19.99 to $14.99. 2. iTunes Controller may be purchased here: reduced from $9.99 to $7.99. 3. @nonymous may be purchased here: reduced from $9.99 to $7.99 These links are exclusive to our members and must be treated as such. However, anybody wishing to purchase may join at their leisure; there are no restrictions. Mac Access Dot Net will be notified directly as soon as any of our members purchase and we will make sure you get satisfaction. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us; we are happy to liaise if required between you and the developer. Mac Access Dot Net strives to provide its members with a valued and worthwhile service. We will do whatever we can to help our members. We are aware of some unfortunate and very false rumours which are circulating amongst certain hostile elements of the visually impaired online community and we think that's unfortunate. We urge you to correct these if you hear them. We do what we do entirely at face value; there are no catches, no cons. But please help us to help you; if you are associated with any computer groups whose membership is at all Apple orientated, please spread the word that we are here.

Yep Lynne is write, its a cloud for your music though its a lot better than Dropbox being designed from the ground up to cope with various media applications such as Itunes you can thus upload an Itunes playlist for example and have MP3 Tunes do the rest, well that's how the theory goes anyway. MP3 Tunes has 2 "Sync" clients available, 1 for Mac and 1 for Windows and - in my experience they are some of the most inaccessible peices of software I've come across to date so that rules that method out of uploading content and its a shame as that's the most practical way of uploading as the software monitors for changes to your Itunes library and uploads accordingly. So waht about manual uploading? Well I managed to get this working on the Mac with Safari a few weeks back but can't remember what I did but, forget about uploading with a Windows machine through Internet Explorer or firefox, the uploader isn't even visible, looks like a complete Java page, Flash or something. I've written to the support people at MP3 Tunes about this but as yet I haven't received a reply, wrote to them on Monday. I had planned to use MP3 Tunes with my Squeezebox system, there still may be a way of doing this now I'm using Ipad Apps to control the whole Squeezebox system. There's supposed to be an App for Ipad and MP3 Tunes itself but as yet I haven't found it, will keep looking.

However, you can always try to find your scanner on Cannon's site to double-check, since they have FAQs for every one that's been made, including driver updates.

Does anyone know if this will work, or know of a way to find out? In our limited experience of FRE and Cannon scanners, they don't get along well because, so say ABBYY, the Cannon hardware drivers are not native Intel. This is something which is going to become an even bigger problem soon for those who happen to have invested in Canon hardware and Macs because the drivers don't seem to be future-proofed. Fortunately we personally don't have the need for much oCR currently; but that doesn't mean I don't care about the issue just because it doesn't impact on me personally. There seems to be a lot of that attitude these days, people who just don't want to know. :) In any event I would suggest you save your money for the moment and wait a while to see what develops. I am no techspert; but I know the feeling of having wasted money on software and hardware like that. I wouldn't like to see it happen to others. Just my little bit for whatever it's worth; take it or leave it. :) Lynne From chojiro1990 at gmail.com Fri Apr 29 10:49:10 2011 From: chojiro1990 at gmail.com (Nicolai Svendsen) Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2011 11:49:10 +0200 Subject: Abbyy Fine reader express In-Reply-To: <161AE06D-3CA9-41F0-A448-53BA977CED0D@mac-access.net> References: <7FC9F6DD-AA5F-47BC-8FB3-9FAC6CFC0B14@fastmail.us> <161AE06D-3CA9-41F0-A448-53BA977CED0D@mac-access.net> Message-ID: Hi Lynne, Actually, I'm not sure if the whole Intel issue is true. I know that, at least for my own model, Canon updated their driver a while ago to be native Intel. I never have any issue with my own, even though it's a slightly old model. While the generic Canon driver may not work for you, the chance is that there might be either an update via Software Update or Canon's support websites. I've received several updates from Canon websites, but even more recently these were offered through Software Update.

I know that, at least for my own model, Canon updated their driver a while ago to be native Intel. I never have any issue with my own, even though it's a slightly old model. While the generic Canon driver may not work for you, the chance is that there might be either an update via Software Update or Canon's support websites. I've received several updates from Canon websites, but even more recently these were offered through Software Update.

The company even has a finance program, so you can pay on a monthly basis at a low price to eventually pay off the full price. I haven't seen a lot of companies do this, particularly those catering to the needs of visually impaired users.

I won't bother following this one up any further. Maybe I'm being over skeptical here also; but I'd want a gold-plated scanner included for that price! As you say, far cheaper options available and without the ability to try it fully first, "umm umm", no chance! Of course, that might be possible; but it's starting to sound like somebody got a bit sick of working for Kurzweil and opted to go it alone. Well probably not; but you get the drift. The original message said "It won't set you back an arm and a leg". Well; maybe not; but the $299.99 U.S. is steep enough a price. Why is it that products developed supposedly to "Help" the visually impaired always seem to be the most expensive across the board? I'm not blind, nor do I have any other obvious disability unless you count the ability I lack to keep a strait face. But I object to the disabled in general being "conned" and I'm afraid I see this kind of inflated price as a "Conn". That said, if there were really justification for the price in the product, maybe that would be different. But I'm certainly not about to rush out and buy it based on "hear-say" alone. I've made that mistake before, never again. All that having been written; I hope this programme is an exception to, rather than the rule. I hope very much it really does have cost-justifying functionality rather than just using the label "For the visually impaired" as its main reason for the high price. But I could buy Vuescan, FineReader Express and a scanner as well, a couple of times over for the price of this software on its own.

The results came out on par with my iPal Solo, but I like the way Docuscan creates html links for web addresses and email addresses etc. I was hoping it would be a tad better at tables, but overall I am very impressed and love the way it works with VO. I used my Canon MP630 All in one for the first time (only ever used it for printing in the past) and I found it quite quick. Mind you I do have a 100mb broadband connection, so that might be one of the reasons. I think my iPal Solo may move to another room to allow more space on my desk, as I am for sure going to purchase this app. Chris On 29 Apr 2011, at 16:32, Nicolai Svendsen wrote: > Hi Dane, > > I'm glad for your response. :) > > I don't doubt the company, since I honestly think that it's fantastic that they're offering screen readers and a lot of other services at a very good price.

You can also pay monthly, and it offers things that abby can't such as DAISY, audio MP3, output, braille output too etc. Also, if you wanted to use this on Windows or iOS versions when they come out, you would not have to buy additional licences. You could keep some of your scanned documents in the cloud and eventually access them from your iOS device (providing you have 3G or WI FI access of course).

You have the ability to use the service on any internet-connected Mac or PC that has a scanner. You can create daisy books, mp3 files, or even braille ready files that you can emboss if you have an embosser. I don't think there's any Mac software similar to Duxbury for preparing documents to braille, is there? You can also email the document to yourself if you are at a different computer. For these reasons, I feel it is worth the price. It's slightly high, but not ridiculous. It's about 50 or 100 dollars above my current level of affordability, but I may hold off on FineReader and save up for this. However, I also think a 7 day trial is a little too short to really get a feel for it.

Might be worth dropping Serotek an email as maybe this has to b set up with them directly. Incidentally, there was the option during the payment process to enter a discount code, maybe if you contact Serotek they might provide an educational discount code. For those in the UK, I purchased this item via PayPal and it cost me ?183. Not bad at all considering my iPal Solo cost ?1650.

I've been using a Squeezebox system to listen to audio for nearly a month now, I've learnt more about the Squeezebox system and how it works than I ever would have thought possible in the last few days thanks to the Ipeng HD app which allows full remote control of your Squeezebox system from your Iphone or Ipad including full interactivity but that for another time perhaps. If you own Audio Hijack Pro and you regularly record such things as radio or TV broadcasts then you can use the Squeezebox system in conjunction with Audio Hijack to allow you convenient access to your recordings. Let's say that you record the evening news every day with Audio Hijack Pro, you can write an automator workflow to add each recording as its made to an Itunes playlist. Using Ipeng HD or any other method to control your Squeezebox system, you can access the playlist your recordings have been added to and play them in whatever order you fancy, usually the most recent order is preferred . Examples of how to write such scripts are given in the Audio Hijack Pro help manual. The playlists can be accessed in the normal way through Itunes too as you'd expect.

I find that I can still record directly to the iPad using a Griffin iMic connected to the USB connector of the iPad Camera Connection Kit. But I'm not sure whether this works with USB Mics after the iOS 4.2 update, although I have the impression from the Audiofile Engineering forums (makers of the FiRe field recording app) that users can still use the iMic connection to connect from an audio output source. But I know that the iPhone 4 and 4G iPod Touch can't use the Camera Connection Kit, and that some of the flexibility for the iPad 1 went away with the iOS 4.2 update. (Before then, I could connect a USB keyboard, and also data card readers, although I still could only transfer from these to the Photo Album section; afterwards I get "Device not supported" warnings. This is supposedly what happened to a lot of USB mics that used to work through the Camera Connection Kit, but I don't know whether any of them still work.) > > One new mic that does work with the iPad, and also the iPhone and iPod Touch, is the iRig Mic: > ?

If you use the dock connector for a microphone, like the Blue Mikey (only for iPhone 3GS and earlier models -- not the 4G devices and iPads), sound (including VoiceOver) is redirected. But the iRig plugs into the headset jack, so you can run a second headset (one that does not have attached Mic, or you get feedback pickup) into the split input of the iRig Mic plug. VoiceOver may still get picked up by the iRig Mic, if you don't mute it, but it means that depending on the app, you can toggle VoiceOver on and off, and still get information when your recording is finished. > > Hopefully, other users can tell you about the experience of using Braille displays with the iPad. > > Cheers, > > Esther > > On Apr 26, 2011, at 11:56, Annie Skov Nielsen wrote: >> Hi all. >> >> I have finally decided to buy an IPad 2.
