That's the ticket! I guess I'm a stickler for precise language. But It comes 
in handy when dealing with computers and such.

To all who are on a limited data plan like me, please check out the
mobile data section under Settings, General. Towards the end, under
"use mobile data for", you can turn on or off certain features, like
iCloud documents, iTunes, etc. Turning this off means these services
will be restricted to wifi, therefore preventing you from going over
your data plan without realization because one or more services are
allowed connectivity over mobile data. For those living in the states
substitute mobile data with cellular data.
Thanks and hope this helps.

problem with the Eloquent Bible app.

2013-07-09 Thread Jim Noseworthy

Hi Folks:

I am unable to access any Bible text in the Eloquent Bible app using 
Mountain Lion.  I found an article on the "I Can WorkThis Thing" web 
site and I think I followed the instructions.  Any ideas?


Are there more accessible Bible programs out there whether payed or free?

Thanks all over the place gang.

Re: Accessible Internet Browsers For the Mack and VoiceoverwithMountain Lion

2013-07-09 Thread Sarah k Alawami
Basically hit cmd down arrow on the dmg to open it. This mounts the virtual 
disk in the computers list. YOu can then if nothing happens hit cmd shift c to 
open the list then cmd down arrow to open the now mounted virtual volume When 
you copy the app from that to the apps folder, getting there with cmd shift a 
then hitting cmd v to paste, after hitting cmd c to copy the file from the 
virtual disk you then go back to the computer's list with cmd shift c to eject 
the virtual volume with cmd e. It sounds like a lot but trust me it is not

1. mount the image with cmd down arrow.

2. hit cmd shift c and then down arrow  on the folder on of the virtual disk.
3. find the .app file then cmd c to copy,

Hi there!

could you tell us something about your system? What sort of Mac do you have? Do 
you have a monitor connected - where appropriate -, do you have any accessaries 
installed such as a Mouse or Trackpad? What sort of keyboard are you using? etc.

2. go to view
3. hit enter on show side bar and it should look like the old iTunes once

Good luck.

Re: 1 STEP FORWARD ... 5 STEPS BACK!

2013-07-09 Thread Phil Halton

Hi Carol,

as a new mac user, I would suggest making extensive use of the help system, 
especially reading the online VoiceOver help system. Read it through and 
through until you feel you have a handle on all the features of VoiceOver.


I believe that online help system also has a few appendices containing all 
the VO keystrokes and what they do. The keyboard functions are laid out in 
levels. Example, level 1 is just VO keys as modifiers, then level 2 adds the 
shift key to VO keys, then level 3 adds command to VO, and so forth. Try to 
recognize the various key shortcuts according to their Level and you won't 
be so overwhelmed by them.



Also, the keyboard help function is incredibly useful for familiarizing 
yourself with VO and its features. Turn it on with VO+K and then explore by 
holding VO while pressing various keys. Then add shift, command, shift 
command etc to explore all the shortcut levels. Turn it off by pressing 
escape.



Where is this help? Just press VO+h.
good luck,

Hi all,

I'm another newby Mac user and have struggled for a couple of weeks, 
sometimes losing speech, oftentimes getting stuck in tables and not 
knowing quite what to do next and ... well!  I thought I'd succeeded in 
downloading purchases from Itunes but then couldn't even find them on 
Itunes ...  I have managed to get email reading nicely but that may be 
considered my most useful thing to date and have answered a number of 
messages but got stuck this afternoon filling in the email headers and 
trying to write mail from scratch!


Anyway, I have heaps of questions and am trying the best I can to help 
myself but, maybe, this Mac will beat me.


I have been working through the tutorials from Vision Australia with, at 
last, some improved results.  However, I have reached the conclusion that 
everyone's Mac is set up differently and, unless starting from scratch 
together, with the same setup and operating system, I'm not going to find 
things exactly as others do.  In trying to tweak my MacBook I reach a 
point where something is not the same and is "dimmed out" and just don't 
seem to work out what to do to solve these kind of problems.  I therefore 
need to get some concepts into my head to further my understanding.


I would really like a "How To ..." step by step manual to work through. 
I've looked at a couple of Mac Tips and Tricks etc but really they're not 
sufficiently explained for me to be able to work through the steps.


Apart from the "Vision Australia" beginners' tutorials, is there anything 
else I should read?  I can access and know VO keystrokes quite well but 
get lost when trying to search around for HELP on specific system 
settings.  I found what appeared to look like a good set of tutorials on 
Lion by Noteboom but hesitated to spend money only to find out that the 
video tutorials were all so visual that they wouldn't work well for me.


If anyone has some suggestions to move me on from this startingpoint then 
please, I'd be glad to have them.


Thanks!

1 STEP FORWARD ... 5 STEPS BACK!

2013-07-09 Thread Carol Pearson

Hi all,

I'm another newby Mac user and have struggled for a couple of weeks, 
sometimes losing speech, oftentimes getting stuck in tables and not 
knowing quite what to do next and ... well!  I thought I'd succeeded in 
downloading purchases from Itunes but then couldn't even find them on 
Itunes ...  I have managed to get email reading nicely but that may be 
considered my most useful thing to date and have answered a number of 
messages but got stuck this afternoon filling in the email headers and 
trying to write mail from scratch!


Anyway, I have heaps of questions and am trying the best I can to help 
myself but, maybe, this Mac will beat me.


I have been working through the tutorials from Vision Australia with, at 
last, some improved results.  However, I have reached the conclusion 
that everyone's Mac is set up differently and, unless starting from 
scratch together, with the same setup and operating system, I'm not 
going to find things exactly as others do.  In trying to tweak my 
MacBook I reach a point where something is not the same and is "dimmed 
out" and just don't seem to work out what to do to solve these kind of 
problems.  I therefore need to get some concepts into my head to further 
my understanding.


I would really like a "How To ..." step by step manual to work through.  
I've looked at a couple of Mac Tips and Tricks etc but really they're 
not sufficiently explained for me to be able to work through the steps.


Apart from the "Vision Australia" beginners' tutorials, is there 
anything else I should read?  I can access and know VO keystrokes quite 
well but get lost when trying to search around for HELP on specific 
system settings.  I found what appeared to look like a good set of 
tutorials on Lion by Noteboom but hesitated to spend money only to find 
out that the video tutorials were all so visual that they wouldn't work 
well for me.


If anyone has some suggestions to move me on from this startingpoint 
then please, I'd be glad to have them.


Thanks!


Carol P

Re: Ripping audio cd's on the Mac

Hello George and all. What bit rate and filetype  are you ripping to? 
That might have something to do with it. Also are there any fingerprints 
or small scratches on the cd's? Just two things to think about. I have 
had a lot of luck ripping at 192 kb and in mp3.

Re: Listening to BBC radio with a Mac

2013-07-09 Thread Chris H

Andy, glad all is well, I said it's not accessible and not not compatible.

Hi Anne -

Just got it to work by choosing a different episode. It appears that the
one I wanted has been removed, I kept clicking on the date, and nothing
happened. when I used vo shift down arrow to interact with the link, it
said "empty link." So, trying a different link has shown me that the
iPlayer is indeed available and working with VO.

So, it looks like I don't need another browser to use the BBC iPlayer,
and yes, I did download and install Flash, the very first day I started
using this Mac, so again, those that say Flash and OS X aren't
compatible, perhaps haven't got the full story.

Thanks again for your help -

Andy

Hello Andy,

First of all, you need to install Flash player if you haven't done so
already.

On the BBC 5 Live page, type Victoria Derbyshire into the search box
and press Return.

When the page has loaded, use the Web rotor to find the heading with
iPlayer and the number of results.

When you locate the date you want, click the link, there are two for
each result, both of which work.

On the next page, use the item chooser to find Listen now and click it.

Cheers,

Anne

Hi Anne - I've changed the subject to reflect where we are with this
topic.

I am able to listen live to BBC stations, but can't use the listen
again feature. For example, I wanted to listen to the Victoria
Derbyshire show from last Friday, and although I could go to

www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive

instead of going strait to the BBC Iplayer. When I found the
programme, I still couldn't see how to play it. I could see that
there were four days left to listen, and a summary of who was on the
programme, and even going from there to the Item Chooser, still
couldn't find a play link or button.

Any more you can add?

Thanks -

Ripping audio cd's on the Mac

2013-07-09 Thread George Cham
I'm not sure if I've asked this question about ripping audio cd's on the Mac. 
But I'm wanting to know is there's another app  apart from itunes. 
When I rip a cd   it's taking a long time
And the  tracks are corrupting.
