sounds like i would be fine. want to be able to host and join in on live events 
through blab periscope and youtube live as well as use Skype face time and 
zoom. i find that my current mac book pro sometimes doesn't have enough horse 
power but then that's partly because i went cheap and only got 4 gb of ram and 
passed on the flash or what they were calling SSD hard drive at the time.

Hi Tim; My main concerns are video conferencing and managing my websites. So, I 
think it has to be mac book air or pro. I actually miss my 12 inch ibook 4 
because like you say what blind person needs a big screen. I would probably go

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

How does it perform when using Skype youtube live blab etc? I do  a lot of 
online audio and video and plan to do even more in the near future. I want as 
much ram as possible. I also wonder if the cameraa is different on the air than 
it is on the pro. I'm starting to think that a mac book air 13 inch might be 
what I need. thanks, Max

Re: mac book pro, mac book air, or iPad pro?

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

my brother just got an iPad pro and is really impressed with the processing 
speed and quality of the sound. I don't need a larger screen obviously. but 
sometimes I need to display images or video so someone can help me sort them 
for use on my website. that is why I'm settled on a 13 inch screen or there 
abouts. thinking of a mac book pro and just dropping the cd rom to lose a 
little of the weight. another thing i'm sure of is this time I'm maxing out the 
ram and going with a SSD or compact flash hard drive. thanks, max

Re: mac book pro, mac book air, or iPad pro?

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

I think I'm still wanting a full computer and not a tablet. Maybe I'll go all 
in and get a mac book and a 9 inch iPad. but assuming I am staying with a mac 
book do i want a mac book pro or a mac book air? I'm thinking pro but without 
the dvd cd rom. I mean I hardly ever need one, and when I do; it would be so 
much more convenient to just carry a little external drive or portable dvd 
player instead. what do you think? Max

Re: tweeting via email under iOS

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

my friend yvonne garris says that if you have a blog or website and use jet 
pack which is a free plug in you can do posts via email to your blog and to all 
the major social media networks. you can also schedule them in advance or so 
she tells me. don't know more but thought this might point one of you in the 
right direction. good luck max

Re: recording a video

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

walter; I do it all the time. I use the quick time pro app to record. what you 
need to do is find a sighted friend in person or via Skype who can help you 
figure out how to set your monitor so your face will be roughly in the middle 
of the screen. I had a friend named robin hallett who did this for me a few 
years ago and i still use the guide i created after talking with her. one tip 
though be sure that you turn the lights on in the room before pressing record. 
and i don't have to tell you to do a few test recordings to check your audio 
levels. from what i hear online people are more tolerant of video that is a 
little off center than they are of audio that is too loud too soft or has to 
many interruptions from outside noise. and remember the most important thing no 
one is perfect. even the sighted people who have lots of help and who have 
recorded many videos still have to get to a point where they go that could have 
been better but trying to make it better is a waste of time. good luck, max

Re: 2 questions about email

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

when you get to preferences you want to go to accounts. after selecting 
whatever account you created you can then arrow or tab through the screen name 
password and smtp info. on mine the default sound was an air plane taking off 
when an email has been sent. did you hear that or some other sound when you 
tried sending your test email. in the account settings will be one button in 
the advanced tab that says include this mailbox when checking mail. make sure 
that one is clicked. i'm sure there are other members who will be able to give 
clearer instructions, max

Re: Can anyone tell me how I go about editing the bio of my Twitter profile using voiceover please?

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

when you log into twitter go to settings. you should find an option for your 
profile from there. you don't have a lot of characters so you have to be 
creative. and yes it is easier to edit using one of the clients. like the 
twitter client for iPhone good luck max

 Hi all 
 
 Just a quick question. I'm trying to edit the information/bbio in my Twitter 
 profile using voiceover. I've tried  it on all 3 of my devices (IPhone, IPad 
 and Mac) and every time I get to the place where I can edit the text it all 
 of a sudden seems to become completely inaccessible. Voiceover stops reading 
 the text in the field I'm editing, so I've  no idea where abouts in the 
 information I am, so consequently can't delete/amend/type anything 
 different. My Apple personal ttrainer  spent 35 minutes in my lesson today 
 trying to do the same thing using voiceover, but with absolutely no joy at 
 all. 
 
 So does anyone know how I can successfully go about editing  the 
 information/bio in my Twitter profile using voiceover?? Is it actually 
 accessible? Or am I always going to have to rely on a sighted person to 
 change things for me?? 
 
 Any help/information anyone  could  give on this would be most  gratefully 
 appreciated. My personal trainer has sent  an e-mail to Twitter complaining 
 about their inaccessibility in this regard. Would encourage anyone  else  
 who's having this problem to do  the same in the hopes  that Twitter will 
 listen and improve things for us.

Re: Taking Video for Youtube

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

good advice but don't forget someone can help you with setting the camera via 
Skype. they don't have to be in the room with you. my friend robin did that 
with me. we figured out how i should set my laptop whether i was sitting at a 
table in a chair or leaning back. i love quick time. its much more basic. you 
press record and then stop. what i like to do is record several small videos as 
its easier to get them right than recording one long video. then i use the add 
clip feature in the edit menu. when i have all the clips tied together I go to 
files and do an export. then i have one whole movie file. as for youtube i 
record in hd but then i do a second export to 480 p because it doesn't hurt the 
viewer's ability to enjoy the video and it allows for much quicker uploads and 
smoother playing on mobile devices. the window is about 530 380 . hope this 
helps, max

 Brandon, currently I'm using the built in QuickTime app to do all my video

 sorry to say you can forget about that. I have a little bit of site and I 
 always take a few test shots to see if I'm in the frame or not. If you can 
 get some cited assistance they can help you get in the frame, and then you

 Secondly, on a more practical note, is there a way I can do this

 My issues with this app: 
 
 1. The timeline scrolls always to the top automatically and it seems to be 
 insignificant which settings I’ve set. I tried different settings but it had 
 no impact on this behaviour.
 2. I’m not able to find a support address except for twitter accounts of the 
 developers. But I’m not able to send direct messages to people who don’t 
 follow me and so there’s no way to reach them.
 
 Any ideas?

documentary tv show producer needs a blind marketer

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

hello group; i am very active on linked in and a friend referred a gentleman to 
me this week. he currently works for cisco and is starting his own company to 
produce documentary television projects. their first four episodes will 
concentrate on marketing. he is seeking a visually impaired or blind person who 
is primarily a marketer whether that be as an employee of a company or as a 
business owner. the key is your main focus and most of your duties need to be 
in the area of marketing. he determined that with all i have going on i am 
really more of an entrepreneur. he said we would do a different project down 
the road. I'm not counting on that even though he is a nice guy and comes 
highly recommended. but when i realized i wasn't a good fit for it, i told him 
i would do my best to find someone who is. if you think you fit this 
description and are interested in being featured in a tv show that will be more 
about what you do than the fact you are a blind person doing it; then please 
email me off list and I'll get you together with him. thanks for reading this,

Re: new iPhone user

hi alex; well i expect that the iPhone will do more than the phone i had. but i 
generally try to keep my expectations low when it comes to new hardware or 
software. your reply was very comprehensive. I appreciate it and will save the 
email. i have had fun playing trivia crack although i hate the ads. and i'd 
love it if the rs games had an iPhone version. i love their versions of uno and 
monopoly. will check out the link and the apps and get back to you, max

 Congratulations! I'm glad to hear you're already enjoying the iPhone; some 
 people who get it with the expectation of loving it straight away end up 
 struggling for a while before they get the hang of things.
 
 For Facebook, your best bet is the official Facebook app. It's not perfect, 
 but it works. Their other apps--Messenger, Rooms, and Stories--are also 
 accessible.
 
 Twitter has an accessible, official app too, but I prefer third-party ones. 
 Twitterrific is really nice, and is currently my primary app. Tweetings has 
 some cool features and is worth a look, and I've heard that TweetLogix 
 (possibly not spelled correctly) is another good option.
 
 As for other apps, that all depends on what you're looking for: games, word 
 processors, book readers, social networking, navigation, money identifying, 
 bar code readers, object identifiers, light detectors, and plenty more. As 
 always, I highly recommend www.applevis.com, specifically the page for new 
 iOS users, as a great place to start. Personally, the apps that pop into my 
 head right off the bat are:
 
 * Voice Dream Reader, for reading just about any text/audio book or file that 
 isn't encrypted. This includes Bookshare, Instapaper, Dropbox, and plenty 
 more, all built into the app, and you can use third-party voices from the 
 likes of Ivona Neospeech, and others to read.
 * Dice World is a collection of six dice games, and is beyond accessible.
 * Lire is an RSS reader with tons of great features, and is so accessible the 
 developer has a section in the app's settings for VO users to decide what 
 information to hear when reviewing article lists.
 * Red Laser is a free bar code reader that works really well, once you get 
 the hang of it.
 * Downcast or Overcast are two nice apps for handling podcasts. I use 
 Downcast, but I've heard great things about Overcast as well.
 * Carrit Fit, Carrot Hunger, and Carrot Weather are all fun apps. Fit and 
 Hunger are for exercise and calorie tracking, respectively, and Weather is 
 (not surprisingly) a weather app. All three are fully accessible.
 
 Anyway, AppleVis has a lot more information, including an entire page of apps 
 we recommend for new iOS users.

 Guys,
  
 I must admit that I am fairly familiar with the Mars Edit application, but 
 when it comes to the Wordpress side of things, modifying, editting, and 
 composing content, what really are the main differences between Mars Edit 
 and Ecto, aside the obvious of price?
  
 Does one of them gain or lack more features than the other, or is it more 
 just mainly a matter of user preference?
  
 I'm very very much willing to try out Ecto and see how much I like it in 
 comparison, but I'm just wonderring if any of you have used Ecto, and maybe 
 can give me some pointers as to the differences, should there be any.  I 
 know for a fact that both of them are totally 100% accessible.

 I understand that a script exists that will allow one to get a word count

Re: Podcasts Needed

hello; i'm still hopeful of getting an iPhone or iPad soon. i'm wondering if 
you would like some stuff on my early days with it such as unpacking it, using 
it for the first time, pairing it with blue tooth if necessary, etc. plan on 
sharing some of this on my blog but it never hurts to be seen in more than one

 Guys,
  
 Recently, on my web site, we have implemented the ability for users to not 
 only communicate with one another via a social media like platform, but we've 
 also implemented the ability for you, the user, to submit podcast recording 
 material to us to include in our podcast.
  
 My point is, firstly, no!  This isn't a plug for the web site.  All that I'm 
 doing is trying to determine anyone who might be interested in contributing 
 some podcast material for our web site in general.  Being this list is mainly 
 about the Mac, and IOS, I'd like to get some content put together about 
 either/or.  It doesn't have to be Ajpple related, although that certainly is 
 one topic that I'd like to definitely cover.  No, I am absolutely not! trying 
 to compete with Applevis.  I still consider that site to be a great resource. 
  I'm only stating that the option is now open on my web site as well in 
 addition.
  
 If you'd like to help out, then go ahead and record the podcast episode, and 
 upload it by going to:
  
 http://www.clgproductions.net
  
 Then, once there, click on the link that says, Submit a podcast.
  
 From this page, just follow the instructions, upload the file, and I'll then 
 be in touch with you shortly.
  
 Chris.

 QT can only record one audio track at a time so either you have to use

 QT can only record one audio track at a time so either you have to use 
 something that will mix your system audio with the mic under the hood, such 
 as SoundFlower, so QT will see it as a single audio source or use some real 
 audio editor which can do things like ducking, where the original audio 
 track level ducks down whenever you speak. How's that for a one sentence 
 answer?

 Incredible? No, but it's adequate. You have to tab through most popup

 certainly good enough for me, and it's not worth the $70--or however much 
 Amadeus is--to switch from free to paid.

music question

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

hello; recently i started recording myself singing some of my favorite songs. i 
recorded them without instrumentals. a few friends have asked me if i plan to 
record any with the music behind them and the answer is yes if i can figure out 
how. so it seems to me there are two parts to this question. one how do i find 
audio without the lyrics. is there a site where i can download these. and 
second how do i record myself singing so that people hear the instrumental 
tracks along with my voice. and oh yes if i can manage both of those i'd love 
to be able to record video of me singing where people can also hear the 
instrumental tracks. i'm not great at using editing software. so cheap and easy 
would be best. and if someone want to help me through it or even do the editing 
for me i wouldn't turn them down. i believe in learning new skills but i also 
believe we can do so much more by concentrating on what we are good at and 
getting help with the things we aren't so great at. thanks for any help, max

Re: .ogg to mp3 or aac audio conversion?

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

hi i tried the quick time solution. i selected 480 p as the format from the 
drop down menu. the resulting file was only 1/3 the size and allowed me to 
upload it to a website that was refusing it because it was too large. the 
difference was that the end file is now 640 by 360 much smaller than 1080p but 
its all about people seeing your work. also this screen dimension is probably 
better since so many people are accessing the web on their phones and tablets.

 Hi,
 
 When you do the Quick Event process, enter the first incident of the event, 
 like, Staff meeting on Dec 11 at 2:00 pm and press return.  The basic info 
 will be applied to your event, but the Info window for the event is still 
 open.  Navigate around adjusting frequency, location, invitees etc.  The 
 Calendar is very configurable, you can set events to happen every specific 
 day, like every Tuesday, every second Friday of the month, bi-weekly and 
 many other patterns.  The Quick Event is just the initial set-up and 
 everything else is configured after.

once i have files playing i can pause it with the space bar and then go into

Re: Following a user with Yorufukuru

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

what i do is to open the menu and select open in browser. then when it opens 
the page in safari i go to the follow button there. works lots easier than 
trying to do within the app. good luck, max

 I can’t seem to find a user actions menu.
 
 Many thanks,

 I am using Mac OS 10.9.5. Does anyone know of a way to move files from one

 Two ways:
 
 1. The faster method in most cases is to use the mv command from your 
 terminal
 shell prompt. It's even faster if you use tab completion to save typing, and
 you also have the advantage of wildcard expansion for moving multiple files
 and directories. People who don't know how to use command line interfaces 
 well
 are at a serious disadvantage as computer users.
 
 2. From the finder, use command-c to copy the file to the clipboard, then
 navigate to the destination directory and type command-ctrl-v (I hope that's
 correct). It moves the file instead of copying it as the plain command-v
 operation does.

 actual Apple mouse which admittedly I'm not very good with. Tabbing passes 
 it up. Absolutely nothing allows me to click my payment option. When I

Re: sending mail

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

when you send a new email there should be a field to select which account. it 
will be a select bar so you will have to press space then arrow down til you 
find the account you want and then press space or enter to accept. if you have 
different signatures enabled for different accounts these will automatically be 
added to the email after you choose where to send from. hope that helps, max

Re: downlaoding youtube videos

['Maxwell Ivey' via MacVisionaries]

most youtube videos now have a link to download th video. click download and 
then it will give you instructions. the only problem is the owner of the video 
can choose to make the video protected or whatever they call it so you can't 
download the video. good luck, max
