I’ve often thought about getting back into that but I’ve decide that SSL 
authentication certificates offer a better alternative for mail.  Obviously, if 
you want file encryption that’s a different matter.  I can see why PGP would be 
a better option there.  Think I’ll pop over to the Synamtec site now and see 
what’s kookie’, if I can find it.

Kind regards

Hi Gordon,
How does it compare to Carbon Copy cloner?  They seem to do the same thing more 
or less.

Yes, I use it to encrypt mails with people who have also a public PGP key.  
Also en- or decrypt files is possible.

Just look for GPG suite for Mac, that is all you need.


All works well with VoiceOver.

Yes, CCC is another one of those excellent value utilities.  It’s a flip of the 
coin which you choose.  I personally bought a license for both because I am 
always keen to support small developers who produce amazing software.  Speaking 
of which, stand by for a major new partnership announcement between Mac Access

Aha makes sense.  It’s actually why I tend to buy from the developer’s own site 
rather than the mac appstore.  Given how much Apple take I reckon I’m competent

You need to go into the Security preferences under System Preferences and allow

Jim,
there is one called Mac Sword.  I think it used to be called eloquent.

Imho, though, it’s not as good as the online bible you can get for windows.

I also, unfortunately, don’t have a link to point you toward for mac sword.

Yep thanks, I've installed the GPG Tools Suite on my Mac and anyone can find my

I must say the package is incredibly accessible, seems that someone's been

RE: Good accessible Bible program for the Mack.

2013-11-30 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

Kait, you have it actually backwards.  It used to be called Macsword.  Now
it's called Eloquent.

Jim,
there is one called Mac Sword.  I think it used to be called eloquent.

Imho, though, it's not as good as the online bible you can get for windows.

I also, unfortunately, don't have a link to point you toward for mac sword.

As I said, Eloquent is great!  It's somewhat of a pain in the kneck to set

you get it set up though, it works like gold.

RE: Is Super Duper! Worth The Bother? [Yes, Of course it is]

2013-11-30 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

They pretty much do, do the same thing.  The only thing really I saw about
CCC, which SD didn't have was the ability to make a USB bootable installer
drive of Mountain Lion.  I'm not even totally sure if they have updated that
feature yet to support Mavericks.  Aside that though, I didn't really find
that much difference.  I think it's more in which you like better as far as
the interface, and which one you can afford, although both of them are about
the same cost, roughly, if I recall correctly.

Chris.

As the Mac Access Dot Net administrators, we do our very best to ensure that 
the Mac-Access E-Mal list remains malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and 
worm-free.  However

safari and mavericks, I think I some how broke it.

Hello to all. I'm having issues with safari and mavericks when it comes to 
organization of book marks. I did a series n this  and got it to work the first 
time but with the new patch update I believe something broke and broke in a bad 
way. 

1. trying to cut and paste a folder to be in ABC order no longer works. it 
still ends up at the bottom of the list. I even tried dragging and dropping 
both methods with no results. 

2. when you cut and paste a book mark in to a new folder, that is, create a 
folder and paste a book mark in to it from the book mark editor, you cannot do 
this. It still ends up at the bottom of the list. AgainIv'e tried dragging and 
dropping both methods with out success.

3. Some how when I open safari now I end up in my book marked editor. I want to 
know how to fix this. This happens weather I open a web page via launch bar, or 
open safari with my vo quick key and open a web page that way. 

Any advice on all of this?

Thanks.

BookMark the app

Hi All,
I recently got the app called BookMark.
As I opened the app on my iPhone, it appears that it only works with audio 
files.
I recently bought an eBook called Monumental Myths, which is in PDF format.
I have converted it to RTF and to TXT, but perhaps it reads better in the 
original PDF within an app.
My question is, will BookMark read an eBook, or is there a native app on the 
iPhone for eBookks?
Thanks

Glenn

Using GPG isn't a huge task of mind mangling complexity, you just import the 
public keys you want by searching for them on the GPG sever and that's it! by 
default GPG will Encrypt when the appropriate key is available for the eMail

Sarah,
I do have iBooks, and I was wondering how I can easiest put the book into

I did already put the book into DropBox, but I don't know if I can get it

I am hoping to avoid iTunes here.

I don’t use numbers all that much, but I heard there are some work arounds  you

adding songs and albums to iTunes on the mac.

 

 

Hi all,

 

What are the correct steps to add song to the iTunes library on the mac?

 

I am slowly adding music to my music folder on it and having trouble adding
songs to the iTunes library.

 

Thank you,

Re: adding songs and albums to iTunes on the mac.

2013-11-30 Thread Zachary Kline

Hi Linda,
If you use the Open item from the file menu, you can select individual songs or 
whole directories, which will be added and copied to the library. This is a 
little easier than adding stuff to the Music folder yourself, as iTUnes 
generally tries to keep that organized on its own.
Best,
Zack.

Re: Anyone Using GPG

you probably knew that, great way to protect all those things you have up on 
Dropbox or wherever else in the Cloud you have them, share your key with those 
you trust and only they have access to your content.

Re: numbers documents

2013-11-30 Thread Dónal Fitzpatrick

Hi there,

I think the latest version is significantly better than the old one.  The UI (I 
presume you’re talking Mac?) is far simpler and cleaner.  In my view, the 
usability doesn’t quite match Jaws and Excel on Windows, but it’s certainly a 
damn sight better than the iWork 09 version.  Voiceover is much less sluggish,  
though there are still latency issues.  For example, if you hold the down-arrow 
key to fly through multiple rows, and then stop, VO is likely to repeat the 
cell contents on which you land ad nauseum.  

Things like sorting data is, in my view easier.  Put it this way, I’ve actually 
managed the grading of student assignments using numbers this year;  something 
I certainly wouldn’t have dreamed of until now.

Cheers,

Dónal

I just paste albums I want to add into the Automatically Add to iTunes folder.

On my computer it's under Music/iTunes/Automatically add ... or whatever that

installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

2013-11-30 Thread Eileens Misrahi

Hello Folks,

I have a PlusTech 3600 and found this statement when I Googled it. "In Mountain 
Lion you will need to turn it on." What does this mean? I found the drivers for 
OS 10.7 as a beta., but my Mac Air in system preferences does not recognize it 
and it is not listed in the table to add the scanner to the computer. Can 
anyone give me advise on how to procede? 

Thanks in advance.

Re: Screenflow for video tutorials [was Re: Black Friday Mac App Sales on ABBYY FineReader Express, Checkbook Pro, and Audiobook Builder]

Hi Sarah, Dónal, and Others,

Remember to check vendor web sites for educational discounts (and trial 
downloads).  Telestream, the maker of ScreenFlow, offers a 10% educational 
discount to students and instructors on any of their products when purchased 
from their web site.  This can't be used in combination with the current Black 
Friday coupon code, which gives a larger (30%) discount.

Vendors of popular software who give educational discounts on their products 
include Hairersoft (for Amadeus Pro), Nisus Writer, and others.

Also, some of these applications occasionally show up as software bundle deals 
from the MacUpdate Promo and other such sites a few times a year.  ScreenFlow 
was actually part of a 10 app MacUpdate Bundle for $49.95 back in early 
October.  (It was about the only interesting app in that bundle) I think it's 
worth it to negotiate the one-time CAPTCHA involved in creating an mupromo 
account for those few times that you'll want to purchase one of their highly 
discounted promotions on short order.

I notice that right now they have a Paragon mini-bundle running for the next 2 
and a half days.
Paragon mini-bundle of 4 apps for $29.99, reduced from $100
https://deals.macupdate.com/deal/15068#comments
"Use NTFS for Mac and HFS+ for Windows to transfer files back and forth with no 
compatibility issues, or use ExtFS to create error-free transferability between 
your Mac and a Linux-formatted drive."

I don't know how many of those apps work well or accessibly, especially since 
one of them claims to let you resize bootcamp partitions, a second lets you 
read/write Ext 2, 3, and 4 files between Linux and the Mac, and a third lets 
you read Mac HFS files from Windows.  The program I've heard that other 
VoiceOver users make successful use of is their NTFS for Mac program, that is 
also part of the bundle, and normally lists for $19.95.  There's a link in the 
comments on that discussion page that lets you purchase the NTFS for Mac 
program as a download from the Paragon Web site for $9.95 (or half price):
http://www.paragon-software.com/newsletter/2013/20131107_NTFS4Mac11_CamptuneX10.4_SPO_50.html
Here's  the shortened link, if that one wraps:
http://bit.ly/18uz1Em

Note that this discount expires today (November 30, 2013).  But as far as I can 
tell, this doesn't require getting a MacUpdate account.

The mupromo deal of 4 apps runs for a few more days.

HTH.  Cheers,

Estger

 Hi Esther,

 I’ve actually tried Camtasia and haven’t had much success with it.  I have 
 also been in contact with their dev team and, to be honest the exchange 
 was less than fruitful.  In essence they said: Yes we know it’s not fully 
 accessible, and if we get around to it we’ll sort it.  I’ve struggled 
 through, and put together some less than adequate screencasts.  This is 
 why that one jumped out at me as for my sins, I’ve never even heard of it.

 I think I’ll give it a whirl.  Many thanks for this one I do appreciate it 
 as I have to do a lot of this kind of work over the next few weeks so it’s 
 rather serendipitous.

 Cheers,

 Dónal

Re: BookMark the app

Hi Glenn,

Sarah's instructions will work for opening either PDFs or ePub ebooks from 
Dropbox into iBooks.  Just select the PDF eBook you want to transfer and use 
the export button.  The other way you can handle this is by mailing the eBook 
as an attachment to yourself.  When you double tap on the attachment, you'll 
bring up an "Open in" window with options to either open the attachment in a 
default app, which might be iBooks, and a second "Open in …" button that when 
you double tap it, gives you a list of other compatible apps on your iPhone 
that you can open the attachment in.

I highly recommend getting Voice Dream Reader while it is on sale for half 
price ($4.99 instead of $9.99 through this Sunday), because it will handle all 
the document formats you mention (not just PDF, but text and RTF files, ePub, 
DAISY 2.02, etc.) and let you set up separate voices and voice speeds for each 
book, as well as remember your place, and many other features, including direct 
downloads from Bookshare (if you are a member) and searches from Gutenberg.

Re: installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

2013-11-30 Thread Mary Otten

Unfortunately, that 3600 scanner is worthless for us vo users.  I tried it when 
I had snow leopard. The only thing you got access to was there button manager 
thing, and it was VO not friendly. So the short version is, forget it. That is, 
unless they have come up with something new and better than the older drivers.

RE: adding songs and albums to iTunes on the mac.



Zack,

I am sorry, I don't know if I understand. Maybe I am making harder than what
it should be, but after I add my music to my music folder in the mac, do I
go to iTunes and go to file menu and arrow to add file to library. Then I go
to music folder and highlight the song and tab to open?

Thanks so much.

Re: adding songs and albums to iTunes on the mac.

2013-11-30 Thread Zachary Kline

Linda,
I think you can do this a lot easier than you describe below. You don’t need to 
manually add music to the folder, it will be automatically copied there by 
iTunes and sorted properly. If your music is, say, on an external drive, you 
can go to the File->Add to Library menu item in iTunes, and find the folder 
where your music is kept. Hit Open on that folder and it will be copied 
automatically.
Hope this is clearer,
Zack.

Re: installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

2013-11-30 Thread Eileens Misrahi

Hi Mary,

i was dishearted to read your email just now. I went ahead and purchased Prizmo 
for the Mac, but I will not have the luxury of using a quality scanner. I have 
my multi-function Brother laser installed, so I'll be able to use Prizmo with 
it (I hope(. I remember that the installation on the PC side I needed sighted 
assistance to get it working there. I have been thinking about installing a 
virtual machine on the Air, but I was hoping to keep everything separate to its 
own operating system. Oh well!!! Another device bites the dust. 

Thanks for your candid response.

Cheers,
Eileen

After reading your message, and with Sarah's instructions, I swiped to it in

Thanks to both of you.

Re: installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

Hi Mary and Eileen,

The Hamrick Vuescan site claims that the Plustek OpticBook 3600 is supported on 
Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) and later, if you first install the Plustek drivers.  It 
also says that you might have to use the x32 version of Vuescan with this 
scanner.  This suggests to me that the drivers Eileen found for 10.7 and above 
might get this device working, but that it wouldn't apply to Snow Leopard 
systems (Mac OS X 10.6) like the one you were running.  It also suggests to me 
that the drivers might have been written for machines that natively run a 
32-bit kernel (essentially, all older Mac models), and that since all recent 
Macs, including Eileen's MacBook Air, boot into 64-bit systems by default, and 
since this is enforced by all systems running Mountain Lion and above, this 
might be why she isn't seeing the device.

I think that the option of booting into 32-bit mode went away in Mountain Lion 
and above.  There's an Apple Knowledge base article on booting into either 
64-bit or 32-bit mode, but it's now marked as archived.  Here's the link:
• Archived - OS X: Starting up with the 32-bit or 64-bit kernel
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3773

This has left me puzzled, because I don't see a way to install the drivers on 
the new MacBook Airs that ship with the newer operating systems.  Maybe Hamrick 
means this might work on upgraded operating systems that managed to install the 
drivers under Lion or earlier? Might be worth asking the VueScan folks directly 
if this is at all possible on a recent MacBook Air.

Eileen, I haven't tried Prizmo 2 on the Mac (although I did have version 1, 
which I didn't like), but I think that Anne and some others prefer ABBYY 
FineReader Express over Prizmo 2.  ABBYY is currently on sale at the Mac App 
Store for half price ($49.99) for Thanksgiving.  I know Prizmo 2 is much better 
than Prizmo 1, but you seem to be a serious scanner, so I thought I would 
mention the ABBYY option while it's still active this weekend.

Cheers,

Esther

Re: installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

2013-11-30 Thread Eileens Misrahi

Hi Ester,

Thanks for your detail explanation. I will check out the article you mentioned 
in your email and report back either way on the outcome of getting the PlusTech 
3600 to work or not. Maybe this was what the other site was talking about in 
turning on the driver. 

It might seem like I just wasted some iTunes credit I had on Prizmo. Since I am 
relatively new to the Mac side of things, I think about what I use with the 
iPhone. I guess I will need to purchase ABBYY app also. Live and laarn. I know 
I will make other mistakes along the way. 

Thanks again and I'm off to the computer to read up on how to get the scanner 
working on the Air.

Cheers,
Eileen

Re: installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

2013-11-30 Thread Mary Otten

Hi Esther and Eileen,
Well, I certainly don't want to be the bearer of false bad news. I do recall 
looking on the plus text site not too long ago, because I was interested in 
perhaps getting a new scanner. I didn't see any Mac drivers for any of the book 
inch scanners except for the one for the 3600 that was marked as beta. And I 
don't recall it saying supported lion or mountain lion. I'll have to look 
again. Eileen, where did you get the drivers that are supposed to work under 
10.7?
Mary
When I was using Snow Leopard, I did try the beta drivers in conjunction with 
Dockie scan plus. Unfortunately, the scanner was not seen, so I didn't get 
anywhere.

Re: installing PlusTech 3600 Drivers On My Air

2013-11-30 Thread Mary Otten

If you do manage to get this scanner working Undermountain lion, I would really 
like to know. I still have one which I use on an old windows XP machine with 
Kurzweil. I love Kurzweil. And I do have Boot Camp on my Mac mini. So my plan 
had been to simply move my plustek to the window side on Boot Camp . But it 
would be nice to be able to use the scanner on the Mac side with Dr. scan. I'll 
be interested to see what you find out.

Reading eBooks on the iPhone [was Re: BookMark the app]

Hi Glenn,

You can have speech rate as one of your rotor options.  If it's not already one 
of the rotor options go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > 
Rotor and make sure that "Speech Rate" is selected.  Then, you can set the 
rotor to speech rate and flick down to lower the speech rate in 5% intervals.  
Voice Dream Reader has a slider setting that allows you to set the speech rates 
and selected voice individually for the books you are reading, which is another 
reason I like that app.

By the way, the Bookmark app you got is designed for playing audiobooks and 
podcasts that are in the music app.  If you want to learn more about it, you 
can read my archived list post from November 6:
• Bookmark App for iOS is free today

 I recently got the app called BookMark.

 I recently bought an eBook called Monumental Myths, which is in PDF

 I have converted it to RTF and to TXT, but perhaps it reads better in

 My question is, will BookMark read an eBook, or is there a native app on

 Hello Folks,
 
 I have a PlusTech 3600 and found this statement when I Googled it. "In 
 Mountain Lion you will need to turn it on." What does this mean? I found 
 the drivers for OS 10.7 as a beta., but my Mac Air in system preferences 
 does not recognize it and it is not listed in the table to add the scanner 
 to the computer. Can anyone give me advise on how to procede? 
 
 Thanks in advance.

Hi Esther,
Yes, it was from your message that prompted me to get that app.
I appreciate all the notices for free or discounted apps.
Thanks.

Hi Glenn,

You can have speech rate as one of your rotor options.  If it's not already 
one of the rotor options go to Settings > General > Accessibility > 
VoiceOver > Rotor and make sure that "Speech Rate" is selected.  Then, you 
can set the rotor to speech rate and flick down to lower the speech rate in 
5% intervals.  Voice Dream Reader has a slider setting that allows you to 
set the speech rates and selected voice individually for the books you are 
reading, which is another reason I like that app.

By the way, the Bookmark app you got is designed for playing audiobooks and 
podcasts that are in the music app.  If you want to learn more about it, you 
can read my archived list post from November 6:

 Hi All,
 I recently got the app called BookMark.
 As I opened the app on my iPhone, it appears that it only works with
 audio
 files.
 I recently bought an eBook called Monumental Myths, which is in PDF

 I have converted it to RTF and to TXT, but perhaps it reads better in
 the

 My question is, will BookMark read an eBook, or is there a native app

Black Friday Savings on ABBYY products for Students and Teachers

Hi All,

ABBYY Is running a Black Friday sale with up to 80% savings for Academics
(students and teachers) up through December 2, 2013 from their web site:
http://finereader.abbyy.com/finereader_for_mac/
Here are the direct links for students:
http://www.abbyyspecials.com/abbyy-student-savings-program?from=abbyycom_product_visual
Shortened version of students link:
http://bit.ly/18uP7Or
Here's the link for educators:
http://www.abbyyspecials.com/abbyy-educator-advantage-program?from=abbyycom_product_visual
Shortened link for educators:
http://bit.ly/1ajQ7ij

FineReader Express for Mac is $20
FineReader Professional 11 for Windows is $34 or $20 for upgrade.

You have to give information about your academic affiliation, and provide an
email address that shows this is an academic institution (e.g., ".edu" for the
U.S.). You're limited to two products.

I don't know how the final checkout works. this just goes to show that I
should follow the advice I gave Sarah earlier about checking the developer's
web site for academic discounts. But I only found this because I wanted to
check reviews of ABBYY FineReader Express vs. Prizmo 2 for Mac at the MacUpdate
site.

HTH. Cheers,

Esther

Hi zack and all,

Excellent! I got the music added. Now there is a problem.

When I press spacebar on the song I want to play, iTunes plays another.

However, when I press enter, it plays the right song. How do I fix this?

Thank you,

2013-11-30 Thread Zachary Kline

Linda,
If i’m understanding you properly, you are using the ordinary space bar and not 
VOiceOver Space. The best way I can explain this is to say that you’re probably 
accidentally hitting the play button without actually selecting a song in the 
way a sighted person understands it. Hitting enter, for us, is the equivalent 
of double-clicking on a song for the sighted people. So if you hit enter you’ll 
play the right one, all the time. I’d just get used to doing it that way for 
the most part.
Best,
Zack.

Re: Anyone Using GPG

Hi!

you probably know all this already but I thought what you said about SSL/TLS 
and GPG was interesting so here's something from another System Administrator I 
know which makes it sound that both systems can be used with great effect 
together.

SSL stands for secure sockets layer, it is a technology used to encrypt an end 
to end connection between two machines.

When you encrypt an email using pgp, its hidden from anyone who doesn't have 
the appropriate decryption key.
When you connect to a website (or email server) using ssl, only that connection 
is encrypted, if the original email is unencrypted, and sent on by whatever 
server you delivered it to, its unencrypted for that part of the journey as 
well as when it arrives at the recipiant.

So, you would use pgp when you want to guarantee that an email can only be 
decrypted by the recipiant.
You would use ssl (or tls these days) when you want a connection between you 
and a remote machine to be secure from evesdropping by people along the way.
