RE: captcha program for Mac computers?
Is Firefox usable with voiceover yet? I heard Mozilla was working on accessibility but heard that the busy problem with VO and Safari was magnified exponentially on Firefox at the moment. Still if Firefox could just be used for capture pages then that would be a real advance.

Re: Naval Combat
Hi Krystal, You wrote: in the game Naval Combat are they going to make it a i pad app to? there is no way to contact the dev You should be able to use Naval Combat, like many other apps designed for the iPhone, on the iPad. When you launch it, try to locate a button in the bottom right corner of the screen when held in portrait mode that will be announced as Switch to full screen mode and double tap it. The app will expand to fill the iPad screen. The button in the bottom right corner will now be announced as Switch to normal mode if you touch it. Leave this button alone, so you can continue to easily use the app in full screen mode. Some apps are designed as universal binaries, and will auto-detect when they are used on an iPad, and either use the full screen version of the iPhone screen design, or use a design that is specially tailored for the iPad layout. According to their support web page, you can write to the developer at: navalcom...@mindrecursion.com They also have a twitter account: @mindrecursion HTH.

Re: How do I do what's listed in the link?
Hello, This is possible, but it depends on how your mouse follows voice over and also how the exact javascript to expose the hidden links works. In any case, this process will be easier using the IOS inscructions. If for some reason this is not possible, and you have mouse follows VO then: Go to the hover area, and then turn off cursor tracking. If the javascript was written to conform to Section 508 of the ADA then the hover link must be accessible with keyboard actions. In any case, once you turn off tracking, and do a list of links you should find the hide link. I can't try this week, since I am only around iPhones.

Re: Sound output option wanted
Yes, That works. I do that for two rooms now. But my computer is also hooked directly to my main stereo and that has several sets of speakers in several rooms. I'd love to be able to separate out the iTunes output from voice over. I may just purchase a third airport express but I'm told too many of these will start to degrade the network.

Re: audible app problems
Hi Esther, You are correct, it was on my iPhone 4. I have a 16GB iPhone, and there is about 10GB available. I almost never have more than 2 or 3 apps running, as several times a week I close everything from the app switcher. I had downloaded it directly to the iPhone, via my home wireless connection. It is like it froze, it was in 2 parts, and it seemed that both parts read downloading after the titles. But for some strange reason, it started working, and now I have finished the book. So I cannot explain why it did that. Thanks All for offering some assistance. Glenn - Original Message - From: Esther mori...@mac.com To: Mac OSX iOS Accessibility mac-access@mac-access.net Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2012 4:37 PM Subject: Re: audible app problems Hi Glenn, As Sean says, it would help to know whether you tried to download your Audible book to your computer or to the Audible app on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. And if you have downloaded a book to either your computer or to an iOS device, what system or device you are using. My guess, based on your earlier posts, is that you are using the Audible app on an iPhone 4. First, can you check whether your device is close to full? I usually use apps to report on my system status (there are also several free ones, like System Status Lite by Techet, but you can find this information on disk usage in the Settings General About screen.) As with all devices and computers, downloading uses available cache storage, and you may get better performance when you're not short on available disk space, or have cleared off active apps in your AppSwitcher, or have cleared off multiple tabs in Safari or even gone to Settings Safari and used Clear History. (Most of this is not necessary, but are steps that you can take to minimize existing use of resources before you download.) Occasionally a file just doesn't download correctly. This can be due to heavy server traffic at the time you tried to download, or the status of the connection at that time with your ISP, etc. I've rarely had this happen with Audible downloads now, and it's unlikely unless you try to get a newly purchased file just after they've run a big sale. However, if this was a problem download, you can delete the file and try again. (You can start playing an app even when the download is incomplete, so the fact that you were able to start listening doesn't indicate that the complete download was OK.) To delete an audiobook from the Audible app: 1. Go to the book's playing screen. If you have selected My Library (the first of 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen), there is probably a Last Played button at the the top right corner of your screen. Double tap that. 2. On the screen with player controls at the bottom, there is an Info button at the top right corner. Double tap that Info button. 3. The Info screen for the book has three buttons at the bottom: Bookmarks, Details, and Chapters. Double tap the middle Details button that is just above the Home button. 4. Do a three finger scroll up to move to the bottom of the page, and find the Remove from device button (just above the Details button, which itself is just above the Home button at the bottom of the screen). Double tap this to delete the book from your device. 5. You should be taken back to your library screen and the entry for the downloaded book.

Re: Sound output option wanted
lol. I was hoping audio hijack could work as well but I'm not up on today's tech. lol! Take care and be blessed. On Jul 11, 2012, at 6:52 PM, Eric Caron wrote: Yes, That works. I do that for two rooms now. But my computer is also hooked directly to my main stereo and that has several sets of speakers in several rooms. I'd love to be able to separate out the iTunes output from voice over. I may just purchase a third airport express but I'm told too many of these will start to degrade the network. Thanks for the suggestion. I was hoping a inexpensive sound card of some type might work.

Re: audible app problems
Glenn, You cannot download anything larger then 20mb via 3g/4g. You have to use wireless. I don't remember if you were trying it via Wireless or not.

And if you have downloaded a book to either your computer or to an iOS device, what system or device you are using. My guess, based on your earlier posts, is that you are using the Audible app on an iPhone 4. First, can you check whether your device is close to full? I usually use apps to report on my system status (there are also several free ones, like System Status Lite by Techet, but you can find this information on disk usage in the Settings General About screen.) As with all devices and computers, downloading uses available cache storage, and you may get better performance when you're not short on available disk space, or have cleared off active apps in your AppSwitcher, or have cleared off multiple tabs in Safari or even gone to Settings Safari and used Clear History. (Most of this is not necessary, but are steps that you can take to minimize existing use of resources before you download.) Occasionally a file just doesn't download correctly. This can be due to heavy server traffic at the time you tried to download, or the status of the connection at that time with your ISP, etc. I've rarely had this happen with Audible downloads now, and it's unlikely unless you try to get a newly purchased file just after they've run a big sale. However, if this was a problem download, you can delete the file and try again. (You can start playing an app even when the download is incomplete, so the fact that you were able to start listening doesn't indicate that the complete download was OK.) To delete an audiobook from the Audible app: 1. Go to the book's playing screen. If you have selected My Library (the first of 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen), there is probably a Last Played button at the the top right corner of your screen. Double tap that. 2. On the screen with player controls at the bottom, there is an Info button at the top right corner. Double tap that Info button. 3. The Info screen for the book has three buttons at the bottom: Bookmarks, Details, and Chapters. Double tap the middle Details button that is just above the Home button. 4. Do a three finger scroll up to move to the bottom of the page, and find the Remove from device button (just above the Details button, which itself is just above the Home button at the bottom of the screen). Double tap this to delete the book from your device. 5. You should be taken back to your library screen and the entry for the downloaded book.

Re: Sound Hound
Thanks. I truly appreciate your explanation of the buttons. I would never use a vague expression such as poorly labeled, I was very specific about these buttons not having ANY text label. The help for this app refers to the big orange button and a black button, I wrote to the dev that those of us who are totally blind cannot distinguish the color of a button to determine its function. I like this app, more than chazm (sp?), because I can read the lyrics, without them scrolling and wrapping on the screen. However, I would like to see the name of the song and artist without having to press another button after doing a search.

Lets call them UK1 and UK2 going left to right. Directly below UK2 is a button labeled with the name of the artist. Just from playing around in order to prepare my post, it would appear that the button I named UK1 will play a preview, or if the song is already in your library presents a choice between the standard preview, or your version. The other two above and below the artist will display a review of the album including it's contents. There are unlabeled buttons corresponding to every song title which will play samples. Remember that you can use the two-finger-double-tap-hold gesture to label elements, or relabel ones where you don't like the name -- for example, in the SoundHound search result window, you might want to change control infopage save to save. Bare in mind that we are a very small segment of the population, hence we often have to meet developers half way. Most have never had cause to use VoiceOver, so won't know what is meant by a badly labeled element, unless you can explain where they are and how they vary from the nicely labeled ones. Just my two cents. Best regards.

There are a few unlabeled buttons, which in my experience don't preclude the ability to fully exploit all features of interest to me. I understand your frustration with the developers response (kind of analogous to the 1980s vintage office sign reading: the beatings will continue until employee morale improves), but to be honest, I had the identical question upon reading your post. Perhaps if I try a different approach? 1. Can you verify that you're using the current version of SoundHound? 2. Is it the free or paid version (this probably doesn't affect the interface)? 3. Are you using the current IOS public release (5.1.1)? 4. What happens when you launch SoundHound -- is all text unreadable, and you see no discernible buttons? 5. If so, try using the back button in the upper left hand corner until you're on the home screen where all buttons are clearly labeled without any need for the label element ( two finger double tap and hold) gesture. If you cannot locate a back button, try the scrub gesture which is supported throughout the app). One of the available settings is to have SoundHound listen for music on startup, but for me, this screen is very clearly presented via VoiceOver. I can't imagine where you might be landing. Please let us know how you're getting on, and perhaps the list can be of more help if we know a bit more about where you're getting stuck.
