Re: Considering Mac, questions about Voiceover/access
Hi If you are on a budget don't forget that apple do a good deal on refurbished machines that are covered by a full one year guarantee - check out their web site for details. I can honestly say that switching to mac was the most liberating move I have made, I'm sure you will never regret the move should you go ahead. Regards G From Bridgerule in glorious Devon, England.

I've got a lot to think about then. I googled VM fusion and discover it's a way of running Windows on a Mac right? So I would need a copy of Windows and whatever else I wanted to run in Windows. I wonder where in the UK I could buy a full copy of Windows. I don't know much about this as I have always bought systems with Windows already installed and as far as I know the CDs that came with them were not full Windows CDs, just recovery CDs. Does anyone know anything about where I might buy Windows CD? There are several things that appeal to me about Mac, having heard a few podcasts and a friend demonstrating his to me recently. But one reason I was thinking of keeping my costs down. Because I have a dying laptop running Windows Vista and JAWS 10. The kinds of Windows laptops I'm looking at cost around £600. Plus to upgrade JAWS would cost £400 something. So I was thinking if I went for Mac with built-in screen reader that would be slightly cheaper. But if I decided for some reason I would need Windows sometimes this would increase the cost significantly, and I think I would need to use tables a fair bit. So I guess I'll keep this laptop going as long as possible and maybe I can get the money together to get a Mac plus Windows and VM fusion and JAWS latest version...and in the meantime start at least reading about how to use Mac and Voiceover. --- 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: My first mac
Hi Chris, regarding the free Mountain Lion upgrade, I found it easier and much less hassle to just pony up the $20 and buy and install it directly from the app store. It seems you have to qualify for the free upgrade which involves sending in prooff of purchase, waiting a few days for a code, typing the code into a PDF document they send you, then sending in the updated PDF, at which point they send you another code. At least, that's how it was explained to me by apple customer support - they didn't make it seem very easy. Fortunately, it's only $20 and paying for it lets you have it on your machine within a few hours at most with no hassle or hoops to jump through. As the old saying goes, nothing in this world is really free. This was my first disillusionment with Apple. Hopefully, not too many more. - Original Message - From: Chris christopher...@gmail.com To: Mac OSX iOS Accessibility mac-access@mac-access.net Sent: Friday, August 17, 2012 3:25 AM Subject: My first mac Good morning all.

How to set a due date for Mountain Lion Reminders | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews
good tip, but redundant. and ICloud is not the most friendly place to visit w voice over. http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57495293-263/how-to-set-a-due-date-for-mountain-lion-reminders/?part=rsssubj=newstag=title How to set a due date for Mountain Lion Reminders While somewhat replaced by Notification Center options, you can still set a due date for reminders in Mountain Lion. 1 comment Facebook1 Twitter30 Linked In1 More Apple's new Reminders application in Mountain Lion can be used to make a quick to-do list for various projects. One feature in previous implementations of reminders in iCal was a due date option where you could set when a specific task was to be completed. While this option is a bit redundant with the new notification options in the Reminders application, it can be implemented for tasks if needed. When you create a reminder in the Reminders application, you can double-click it, select it and press Command-I, or click the i character to the right of the reminder text to reveal an information window that displays options for setting a notification. By default you can have the system notify you about the task on a specific day or at a specific network location, and be set to repeat if the task is recurring; however, there is no option to set a due date for the reminder. Similar to the old due date feature, if the remind me option is set then the program will color the task pink to indicate its due date has arrived; however, this behavior now comes with the notification that will appear in Notification Center. To prevent this notification but still have a due date, you can still set the contemporary due date feature; however, there is no way to add a due date from within the Reminders program, so for now this has to be done in iCloud and not in the program. Setting the due date at iCloud.com will reveal this as an editable option for the reminder within Reminders. (Credit: Screenshot by Topher Kessler/CNET) Log into iCloud.com Select the Calendar option Double-click the reminder of interest in the Reminders list to the right Check the due date box and set a due date for the reminder Click OK to save and close the reminder When this is done, if you then go to the Reminders program and get information on the modified reminder, you will see a new due option under the remind me settings that contains the date previously set. This date can now be modified within the Reminders application. Ultimately while it may have its uses for some people, the due date option is a bit redundant with the remind me feature. Both will change the reminder's color to indicate past-due, with the one exception that the due date will not trigger Notification Center whereas the remind me option will. If you prefer to have the system issue a warning when the due date for your task has arrived, then using the default remind me feature may be preferred to enabling the old due date option. Questions? Comments? Have a fix? Post them below or e-mail us! Be sure to check us out on Twitter and the CNET Mac forums. Don't Miss 1 comment Join the conversation! Add your comment Thanks for the tip! But I respectfully submit that going to the website is not setting a due date in Mountain Lion. Considering that the feature is not available in iOS, and has actually be REMOVED from OS X, I wonder how long this will be available on the website. I love Apple products for the most part, but I really hate when they decide what's best for my workflow, especially when features are removed. It's a little insulting.

Re: power nap was: Re: Software update on Mountain Lion
Hello, Does all this mean that only the latest Macs can automatically download and install software updates while in sleep mode? Does it mean that my 4 year old iMac cannot do automatic download and install of software updates while in sleep mode? If so that is a pity as it would be a nice feature. Are there any Apps on the Mac App store which would support automatic software update download and install on a 4 year old iMac? Many thanks.

Re: power nap was: Re: Software update on Mountain Lion
Hi Paul, the answer to your question is unfortunately no, only the latest macs support this feature. It has to do with hardware as well as software, so no apps would be able to I'm afraid.

Re: power nap was: Re: Software update on Mountain Lion
Hi Paul, Josh, Will, Sarah, and Other, Power nap also requires a firmware upgrade to work for the supported models. This is a hardware limitation, because you can't run power nap without excessive heat generation except on the newest processors, which are built with on-board flash memory modules that connect directly to the logic board. This means that even if you replace your hard drives with solid state drives, you don't achieve the power consumption savings you need to safely run this. And the newer Intel processors also use less power. For more details, read the recent Macworld article by Dan Frakes, Up close with Mountain Lion: Power Nap, and navigate to the header Why isn't my Mac supported? http://www.macworld.com/article/1167970/up_close_with_mountain_lion_power_nap.html By the way, members who are new to the Mac should use the Safari Reader feature (Toggled on and off with Command-Shift-R) to read this page. This provides an uncluttered version of the article content that saves you having to navigate through extraneous links, ads, and graphics that appear on the same web page as an article. HTH.
