In terminal there are a few ways to do a selective backup. This one
allows one to choose which folders and if wished to backup only those
files that have changed since the last backup.
Better than Time Machine: backup your Mac with rsync

Hi David,
I've seen similar studies. Glad we're finally figuring that out. :)

Hey Scott,
You know, your posts always have so much that I want to respond to, that I
hardly know where to begin. :)
I didn't know that your blindness was illness-related. That truly must have
been frightening for you and your parents. No one has ever really figured out
the cause of my blin
Hi Anne,
That's really interesting. I didn't do as well as you with the Optacon. I was
a very fast braille reader, and at age 11, lacked the patience for the slow
speed of reading with the Optacon. But I can see where it would have been
different having a specific purpose in mind. I was usi
Hi Chris,

Hi,
I love reading this personal historical info on folks. Sure, off topic, but
totally acceptable in my world. The common thread here is supportive and

I guess we should take this off the MV list, but perhaps the person that

That's why Apple went to the RISC PowerPC in the not too distant past as

Hello,
I have a few questions regarding the suite of Avast products for an mbp.
1. Is the interface completely accessible for VO users?
2. I was somewhat confused with the pricing of these products. What was the

Thanks.

hi,
Docs is actually just a web-based word processor. I'd agree that it's probably
easiest for you to use on your iPad. It's actually quite accessible, although
you may need to use arrow keys while in the text area of the shared document
instead of VO navigation. Haven't been in a collaborat

Hi Donna and Scott. I thought I would chime in too.
Yes, you're right about Apple starting accessibility over 30 years ago, even
before we had voiceover and the mac. It sounds like my experience is somewhat
similar to yours, even though I was born a few years later and I started using
computers
Hi Tim,
I agree. I think it's really fun and interesting getting to know a bit about
list members' history and early computer experiences.

Hi Katie,
Isn't the VarioUltra the best? Earlier tonight I was thinking about how bulky
things used to be. My first braille display was a TSI Navigator. The thing
was huge. I used to carry around what was basically a large briefcase, just to
carry around my PC laptop and my braille display,
It has and accessible G you are right, but it also has full punctuality from
the commandline. The commandline is accessible. If not confusing.
Best wishes,

Hi, Donna.
Yes, I’ve been learning to use the VarioUltra since May and love it! :-) its
the best braille display for me so far. I think its great you can just connect
a device like your phone via bluetooth and it works once the pairing is
successfully connected. I can also text or email people
I guess I will chime in here. I was congenitally (born) blind. My brother, who
is two years older, is also blind.
We started school at a blindness school, and then attended a bording school for
