Re: intro and switching from windows/jaws to mac/voice over
Hello Laurel My name is Lynne, and I'm one of the list owners. :) I'm going to try and answer your questions but first, I should tell you that I am not visually impaired, although I have a very keen interest in accessibility. On 24 Apr 2012, at 19:02, Laurel laurel.stock...@gmail.com wrote: 1, what were some of the most important changes from using jaws to using voice over that you who made that switch had to get used to? My first piece of advice is to try and forget the concepts of Windows and Jaws; many of them do not apply. Do not expect things to behave the way they do under Windows because really it's a different operating environment in many respects.\ 2, what are the biggest things I should know about switching? Again, forget about JFW, and allow yourself to be flexible during the learning process. 3, what are the best web tutorials for learning voice over? That one I cannot answer; but there are some very good guides built into VoiceOver itself. For instance, try pressing Control+Option+Command+F8, which will bring up the quick start guide. It will give you exercises to follow which should help you learn the basics. 4, if any of you used Kurzweil1000 for Windows, what did you do for a mac? Are there any other OCR programs that work with voice over and are as good as Kurzweil? There are a number of OCR programmes for Mac; but be mindful of the fact that they are not written along the same principals as K1000. Therefore, there's far less hand-holding. But you could try either ABByy FineReader Express by Nuance, ReadIRIS Pro, or VueScan. I forget who develops VueScan but a google search will find it for you. The process isn't as seamless as K1000 but again, it's worth investigating because one can achieve excellent results with a Mac and a scanner. 5, I have office for mac, how vo accessible is this and what can I do to make it more accessible? Unfortunately Office for Mac is not accessible at all. 6, this is a mac question in general, what programs did y'all use to run windows programs on your mac, did you all use boot camp or something else and what's the cheapesst/easiest? It depends on how you want to do it. If you want your Mac running OSX and Windows together, then try VMWare Fusion from http://www.vmware.com/fusion/ which will allow you to run a virtual machine and is totally accessible. If you want Windows to run naively then you'll need help to set it up because as with any PC there's no talking or accessible installation process. Please don't be afraid to ask questions on list; that's why we are here. Also, feel free to use the list archives, (detailed below) where you'll find a number of discussions regarding what you've asked. Please also be aware that we have strict policies regarding the discussion of off-topic things like Windows and JFW. Anything on the Mac side is fine; but if you want to discuss Windows with us, feel free to join one of our sister groups: Techno-Chat which you can join by sending an email here: techno-chat-requ...@techno-chat.net or Window-Access, whose subscription address is: windows-access-requ...@techno-chat.net I hope some of this proves helpful.

Re: running windows programs on mac
Hi, Regarding ram, I really need some. Can anyone recommend a good third party provider where I can get ram for a 2007 iMac? This one only has two gigs of ram and the VM runs slower than it should. I wonder if Newegg is good and if I can get it relatively cheap. Getting eight gigs would be nice because the Mac could then use four gigs and Fusion could use four. That might be rather pricy though.

Re: running windows programs on mac
This is really good information. I study foreign languages and do lots of word processing. How much RAM do I need for fusion, I have 4 gb of ram now. The only other thing I wanna know, is does the version of windows that you hafta have need to be windows for mac? I have a windows vista cd that I used to put windows on my dell. Can I use this same cd or do I need to buy windows for mac. I will definitely learn voice over, that's the reason I switched. I just think it would be helpful for me if I could switch to JAWs and windows, or Kurzweil and windows, when I really need to.

Re: calender
HI Mark, I find that the week view is much better than the month view. When I used the month view and tabbed through the calendar items I found that some items were not announced especially for days on which there are multiple items. With the week view I can tab through all the items including items on days where there are multiple items and items from multiple calendars. I set the calendar preferences to display event dates and times so that these are spoken as I tab to each item. Hope this helps Paul Hopewell On 25 Apr 2012, at 20:21, Mark Furness wrote: What do I need to change in order to have calendar announce the dates of the events I put into it?

Re: default email address
You didn't say what device, OS or Mail client you're using, so I'll assume Mac OS Lion's Mail.app. Try going to Mail Preferences / Composing / Send New Messages From, and select the account you want to send from.

Re: running windows programs on mac
Hmm. I never had trouble copying text from web pages if I was in dom mode. I usually used groups mode though, and if the text I wanted to copy crossed groups, it didn't always work well, but vo-enter to start highlighting, then vo-enter to stop highlighting, then command- c to copy the text always worked for me in snowleopard and up. (haven't used lion, nothing here that will run it) --- 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/.

Re: softcon yahtzee game
Grr, did it again. :) re-uploaded the game (forgot to use binary mode when uploading the file, so file got corrupt. No documentation with it at the moment (that got corrupt too) but the game is there, and it should work, though I don't remember if I compiled it as a universal app last time or not, so may not work on some osx versions, but I figure folks will let me know if it doesn't. :) Anyway, there ya go, hth. again, the url is http://www.softcon.com/mac/games/ Softcon yahtzee is up there for the download now. Sorry for the hassle, and the lack of docs, but it's pretty self-explanatory. --- 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/.
