Re: decription tool for dvds

2012-08-31 Thread Travis Siegel
The one I use is called mac the ripper.  Works perfectly, is free,  
and can be found readily with a google search. :)

Finding it is left as an exercise to the reader.

Boom--a fantastic app when it works, but not very accessible

2012-08-31 Thread Marcia Yale
The subject line says it all--if and When I have accidentally succeeded in
getting it to work, the volume increase on my little Macbook Air is very
nice! However, the interface is not great, and I'm hoping that someone out
there with some usable vision has also purchased it and can give me some
tips and tricks to get it working well. Here's hoping!

Re: Reading PDF files in ML.

2012-08-31 Thread Sarah Alawami
Hmm did my link I gave not work? It  did work when I tried it.

Take care. As for stanza some of the letters and words come out oddly and they 
have never fixed it. It might com rout like so

This is a test might come out like

T his is a t est

something to do with ascii characters and stuff but that problem has been 
around for a while hence why I don't' use stanza to read stuff.

Re: Reading PDF files in ML.

2012-08-31 Thread Esther
Geoff and Others,

Don't get the version from the Mac App Store which is a Skim rip-off, and an 
old version to boot.  However, I'd say that this won't fix the Preview problems 
you're encountering.  You might try reading in Stanza desktop, since that's a 
different interface.  Oddly enough, PDFs read in Preview under Tiger just fine, 
very stably, and with none of the problems in column reading that Paul 
encountered.  It's something Apple will have to fix in the underlying operating 
system.  Skim has more options than Preview and has better stability of focus  
in some situations, but is using the same underlying structure as Preview.  And 
when in doubt, just Google Skim at the MacUpdate site to find the link.

Cheers,

Esther

Re: decription tool for dvds

2012-08-31 Thread Esther
Hi Gordon and Others,

At the end of July/beginning of August Fairmount became separately 
acquired/distributed by Mac DVD Ripper Pro.  So Annie is correct that getting 
Mac DVD Ripper Pro will handle the decryption.  If you downloaded Fairmount 
from Metakine's web site for use with earlier versions with DVD Remaster Pro, 
you can probably continue to use it.  I don't think that the terms of the Mac 
App Store allowed for distribution of Fairmount along with DVD Remaster Pro, so 
It was always a separate (albeit free) download item from Metakine's web site 
for users who bought the DVD Remaster in the standard or Pro version.  I 
believe the Pro version is the only one that is sold through the Mac App Store.

Another option for a straight rip with decryption is Ripit! from the Little App 
Factory.  But I believe that recent purchases of DVD Remaster Pro do not 
include Fairmount.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Updating my IToys

Hi there

 

I think my subject line gives an indication of what this is about.  I am
updating my IToys (as I like to call them).  I am getting the new IPad
today, and wanted to know if people have any tips for maximising it's
efficiency.  Any good apps for example?  I have ordered a Bluetooth keyboard
whis on its way to me.

 

Any help is greatfully accepted and valued.

 

Thanks

 

Take care

Re: A Dilemma

2012-08-31 Thread Diane Bomar
The main reason I have been hearing to wait, is that the 4s will drop, even 
more, in price, when the new iPhone is released.
I  am happy with my 4s, which I purchased last April, but keep my 4  to use as 
an iPod touch.

Hi Desi

We all have 4S's here in this house and we're more than happy with them.

I've heard rumours and counter-rumours, but I guess ultimately it's a personal 
decision.

I don't know of any compelling reason to wait, but I don't know what's coming 
in 
the new iPhone.

here because though I understand the decision is ultimately mine, I'd love to

find 
myself in desperate need of a new cell phone!  My dilemma is this.  I know the

buy an iPhone 4s knowing that I will be buying into another 2-year contract? 
Has anyone heard of any compelling reasons to wait, given that my current

a Haven, is dropping calls and no longer holding a charge?  My Apple friends 
are 
encouraging me to wait, and because the timing is so close, that approach makes 
perfect sense to me.  On the other hand, my current phone is going down more

more each day and I don't have a land line.  Have those of you who have the 4s 
been happy with it?  Any help with
 this would be most appreciated!  If you don't want to answer on list, please

Re: VoiceOver friendly RSS reader

Sometimes you just want everything in one place.  I have a numerous array of 
news sites I like to visit, this gets all the data and puts the headlines all 
in one place and only shows me the new content too in date order.  This can 
save on a lot of surfing time on the move.  I use Twitter in a similar way also 
.

 Now that Apple mail in Mountain Lion no longer supports RSS feeds I am 
 having trouble reading Apple Hot News items. I have been trying the Shrook 
 RSS reader and am confused! I managed to subscribe to Apple Hot News and 
 can see a list of about 20 news items in a table. I can press Enter on an 
 item which opens Safari for the web page for that item. However when i 
 have read that item there does not seem to be any accessible way to remove 
 it from the list of items. 
 
 Maybe Shrook is the wrong RSS reader. Is there a better alternative? It 
 was so easy when Apple Mail supported RSS feeds. 
 I would appreciate any tips. 
 Best regards

Re: sending text messages from the mac.

That's where GoogleVoice comes in handy, though I'm not sure whether they've 
expanded outside North America.  The free account includes unlimited calling to 
the US and Canada as well as unlimited domestic texting.

  and it's generally more expensive as well. I think it's like 3 or 6 sense a

Re: A Dilemma

2012-08-31 Thread Gordon Smith
Hi Desi

We all have 4S's here in this house and we're more than happy with them.

I've heard rumours and counter-rumours, but I guess ultimately it's a personal

I don't know of any compelling reason to wait, but I don't know what's coming

current phone, a Haven, is dropping calls and no longer holding a charge?  My 
Apple friends are encouraging me to wait, and because the timing is so close, 
that approach makes perfect sense to me.  On the other hand, my current phone 
is going down more and more each day and I don't have a land line.  Have those 
of you who have the 4s been happy with it?  Any help with
 this would be most appreciated!  If you don't want to answer on list, please

Re: sending text messages from the mac.

2012-08-31 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello, 
You can send SMS text messages from a Mac to a mobile phone by using Skype. YOu 
do of course have to deposit some money in your Skype account to pay for the 
phone call. 
Best regards

Re: sending text messages from the mac.

2012-08-31 Thread christopher hallsworth
Apparently there is Type2Phone that uses your mac as a bluetooth keyboard for 
your iOS device. You can then type the text directly into the app once the iOS 
device is in the text field, then send the message. You can also type text in a 
Mac text editor, copy it, and paste to your iOS device.
Hope this is what you are looking for.

2012-08-31 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi,

What's actually really nice about this is that it uses your system speech to 
read the dialogs, too. If you tab through the options, it reads the status of 
the checkbox you're on, and what the option does. This is if Voiceover is off. 
The article didn't seem to mention that.

Regards,
Nicolai
