RE: Help with Ical
Thanks for your help on ical. I have followed your suggestions and I now am able to navigate around ical quiet well. I have one question which is where do I find view by month. I went into preferences and found how to do it by week or day not by month. I hope you can help.

Re: Help with Ical
Margaret, Go to the View menu on the iCal menu bar. You will see view by month there. Alternatively use the shortcut command+3.

Re: Recommending between pages and nisus writer pro
Hi Margaret, another word processor I would like to suggest for you to go and check out is called Bean. I don't know what you are wanting in your processor but I use this one for my college work and I have come to prefer it over pages and also it is free. Just google the name and try it out. If the worst comes to it, all you need do then is remove it from your apps folder. I hope this is helpful for you.

Backing up an iPhone [Was: Re: renaming files with mac?]
Hi Maria, If I'm understanding your request, you want to back up your iPHone and you have a Mac Mini available. If that's the case you can connect your iPhone to your Mini using the USB cable that came with the iPhone. You can then launch iTunes if it doesn't launch automatically. iTunes should recognize your iPhone and it will appear under the list of devices in the sidebar. Use VO to navigate there, then press VO+Shift+M to open the contextual menu, arrow through the menu until you find Back Up. Select that option and it will back up your IPhone. That's the short answer, but you might encounter some roadblocks depending on your settings, so I'd suggest consulting the following link to an Apple article detailing how to back up an iPhone using either iTunes or iCloud http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 HTH, Bryan On Feb 4, 2012, at 8:06 AM, Maria Chapman wrote: another question i have is since my computer at home died and i don't have a good enough wireless connection to back up to the cloud. is there a programme out there that will let me back up my iphone? it doesn't have to be accessible as i have sighted help at the moment. mac or pc is fine. i can access a note book and my mac mini of course. --- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net --- To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages postedto the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html or at the public Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/.

I am trying to edit some music. I have hopefully placed markers in the approximate position indicating the start of various music sections. I would like to start playback at each of these markers to determine that they are in the correct place and if not I would like to move them a bit while retaining their names.

Re: Keyboard Shortcuts for Skype on the Mac
Just control click or hit vo shift m on the name you want to call from your contacts list and then hit enter on call. There then is a interface for when you do make calls. I have a podcast on how to use skype 5 here. Give it a bit of time to upload though. link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1672188/a_look_at_skype_5_for_mac.mp3 On Feb 4, 2012, at 9:47 AM, Matthew Chao wrote: Hi, Sarah.

Margaret -Original Message- From: mac-access-boun...@mac-access.net [mailto:mac-access-boun...@mac-access.net] On Behalf Of Paul Hopewell Sent: Wednesday, 1 February 2012 2:55 AM To: Mac OSX iOS Accessibility Subject: Re: Help with Ical Hello Margaret, I am running the latest version of Mac OS 10.7 (Lion). I have set iCal up to only have a single calendar and have checked the box saying show event times in calendar preferences. I use the view by month. I can use the Tab key to move forwards through calendar entries in chronological order and Shift+Tab to move backwards in chronological order (that only works correctly if you only have a single calendar). I avoid all day events as these are shown out of sequence using the tab key. Instead I show the all day event as starting at 07:00 and ending at 23:00. I also avoid having a separate birthdays calendar for the same reason. At the end of the month I press command+right_arrow to got to the next month. The easiest way to add an iCal event is to press command+n to create a new event and then type something like Dinner with Ken 23 February 19:30 to 23:30 and then press Enter. This will bring up a short dialogue with one line titled event details and a line delete and a line done. If its just a simple one off event just move the Vo cursor to the done button and press that button. If its complicated like a repeating event interact with event details and enter the repeat pattern. then stop interacting with event details and press the done button as above. iCal works very nicely for me this way and is very easy to use. I have several complicated repeating events like one which alternates between the second tuesday of one month and the second Wednesday of the next month. I can tell you how to do this if it is not obvious. I use iCloud to replicate with the calendar on my iPhone. On my iPhone I use the list view which then shows the events in chronological order. Hope this helps. Please get back to me if you need more.

Re: Problem with Voxie and large files
Hi Paul, I'm sorry I can't help you with the Voxie question as I have not used the app for some time now. I did notice you mention using the high quality recording option. Because I've been doing a lot of work lately with List Recorder I noticed it records up to 44 KHZ. Is that the same or better then Voxie? It was described as CD quality. Anyway if you can't get Voxie up and running and or if you want a higher level of recording you could consider this app. Voxie served me very well when I first got my iPhone but I stopped using it because I found it difficult to organize the many quick recordings I needed to make. One thing to be away of though is that List Recorder has a bug ever since iOS 5 that stops recording when the phone goes into locked mode. This will be fixed in the next release but in the meantime users have to set the phone to not lock when doing long recordings.

I am recording my piano playing and so am using the high quality recording option (22 KBPS). This works fine for recordings of about 2 minutes or less, but if I try to record say 5 minutes Voxie does not want to stop recording and save the results. Even at 2 minutes Voxie does not immediately end the recording but instead seems to take half a minute or so to catch up and save the recording. this catch up time seems to grow substantially as the recording gets longer and at 5 minutes I not convinced Voxie will ever catch up. Do others see this problem? WOuld it be better on an iPhone 4S with its faster processor? Is there anything I can do other than record the piano piece in 2 minute sections and use Amadeus Pro to join them together after the event. that is tricky as it is more difficult to maintain the same rhythm across multiple short recording sections.

Re: Navigating in Preview.
Hi Geoff, I have read PDF files on the iPhone in ibooks. Is that a option? Or is using the iPhone not a good option for reading this file? I'm pretty sure you have a iPhone as I believe I remember several helpful and several humorous posts you have made regarding its use. Best, I still find PDF reading on the Mac and on PC challenging. eric Caron On Feb 3, 2012, at 2:01 PM, Geoff Waaler wrote: Thanks to all who responded.

Re: Navigating in Preview.
Fileapp is also a good choice for reading PDFs on the iPhone.

Re: editing playlists
Hi Margaret, You can also navigate to the LCD section by starting from the search text (Command-Option-F keyboard shortcut to go there), and then doing a VO-Left arrow twice (or Left arrow twice with QuickNav on, or flick left twice with TrackPad Commander on). If you interact with the LCD section you get detailed information about the currently playing track. Sarah, as another way of answering Ian's question, I thought that you could always press Command-L to go to the currently playing track in the songs table. If you started playing it from a playlist, you'd get the other song tracks in that playlist showing up in the songs table, the original playlist you selected would be highlighted in the sources table, and you would be able to edit the playlist contents in the songs table. Does this not also work? HTH. Cheers, Esther On Feb 4, 2012, at 7:50 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: It's right by the volume control.

iBooks and punctuation - was Navigating in Preview.
Hi Eric, James and others, Using iBooks would be an excellent suggestion, especially if there is a setting in VoiceOver and/or iBooks that I'm missing. While using the two finger swipe down gesture to read take control of the command line in epub format, it was often necessary to ascertain the exact text or punctuation. In read-all mode I could not find a way to have voiceover say all punctuation, which would have made things more understandable when items with vowels were pronounced as words. The only way to really know the exact syntax was to stop VO, and move via word or character navigation to the start and flick through it one character at a time. This process is rendered harder by the fact that stopping from read-all does not appear to place the insertion pointer anywhere near the desired content. The other thing I noticed was that image captions are often read. Therefore in the case of the missing manual series where images are described in detail and that identical text is used to caption the associated image, the result is many time consuming entries from the department of redundancy department (DORD). My thought was that if I could instead read on the Mac, I could cut/paste examples from the take control book into terminal, and perhaps blow off image captions. Thanks to all who contributed preview and PDF reading suggestions also!!

Fileapp is also a good choice for reading PDFs on the iPhone. Interestingly, although Skim is touted to be a better PDF reader than Preview, for some reason, if you are reading in single page view, when you move to a new page in Skim, VoiceOver does not start reading from the top of the page when reading manually with the VO keys.

I may buy Skim though its primary function seems to be features I don't care about. Travis stated that its not hard to get where you want to go, and that is a reasonable expectation. After hiding the tool bar it seemed to work better, but now when I quit interacting, and bring up the go to page dialog via command-option-g and interact immediately, my focus remains where ever I was previously. Page up/down also have no apparent affect. Reading this 900 page file one page at a time (toggling interacting every step) is not a viable option. If this is in fact not hard, perhaps you can offer a suggestion? TIA and best regards.

If you're having trouble with previews continous view, try the single page view instead. This will only allow one page at a time to be vissible to vo, so that you won't be dropped back at the beginning of the document. There's some tricks for staying where you want to be in the preview app, but it's all dependent on whether or not you're interacting, and how your cursors are set, and (apparently) sometimes where the real cursor is. It's actually not hard to get where you want to go, but it is a bit tricky, and takes timing sometimes (since you need to catch vo before it starts reading from page 1, interact with the text, then (usually) you're back where vo was, but occasionally, this doesn't happen, so you get dropped back at the start, which can be quite confusing, especially if you're new to preview, and don't know how to move around. But, if you turn on single page view, this problem goes away, with the only caveat being that you can't read the whole pdf from start to finish with a vo-a like you can if it's in cntinuous mode. hth. --- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net --- To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages postedto the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive:
