Decreasing startup time, any tips and tricks?

2013-12-03 Thread christopher hallsworth
Good morning all.
Using a Macbook Pro 13 inch non-retina mid 2012 running Mavericks, any tips and 
tricks on how to decrease startup time? I tried repairing the disk but all was 
ok there. Somebody suggested repairing disk permissions or so I thought. So 
should I try this?
Any responses greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Kind regards
Chris

Re: garage band help, how to add loops to a track

2013-12-03 Thread Phil Halton

 give some advice.

 Hey guys,
 I like the tutorials that Sarah referred me to, their great! I do need 
 help though. I can't figure out how to add an apple loop to a track. I 
 know the normal directions say to drag and drop the loop into the track, 
 but I can't seem to do that. Some of the older garage band tutorials were 
 using the perevious version of Garage Band, so it's hard for me to follow 
 their directions because the older version's layout is very different from 
 this one, and I don't have any experience with the older versions.
 Can anybody who has experience with this help me out? Maybe I just don't 
 know where to drag and drop the tracks, or maybe there's a voiceover trick 
 I can't figure out? I've also tried just copying and pasting the loop into 
 the track, but no dice. If somebody has it on their computer but doesn't 
 have a lot of experience, maybe if they have more vision than I do they 
 could still look at it and help me out?
 Thoughts?
 Thanks

Re: Decreasing startup time, any tips and tricks?

2013-12-03 Thread Sarah k Alawami
What I do is use a tool called “tinker tool” I think I spelled that right but 
you can find it on mac update’s site.

I then go to the log in items tab and uncheck all my start up things. I also 
try and not have any externals start up at start up if I can help it. I’ve 
gotten it down to about 45 seconds or maybe 50 which is pretty darned good for 
my older machine.

Take care.

Re: Mavericks and reinstallation or I guess installation for that matter

2013-12-03 Thread Sarah k Alawami
At stand by sleep yes.  At reinstallation no, as I created a pen drive with my 
mavericks install on it. If you want to know how I managed to do that read the 
blog post at http://tffppodcast.com/listen/ or for an audio tutorials of one 
way to do this go to http://tffppodcast.com/premium and you might find 
something of interest, or maybe not. I do go kind of fast in that particular 
tutorial but I”m working on an alternative one that talks about an alternative 
more complex  way to do this so that you don’t have to dl the one from the 
internet. 

Take care.

 and maybe I should do a 2 parter for my supplement I want to release

 As to what it’s doing the last time I reinstalled it did actually give

 Hello, what does the Mavericks installer do after you click agree to 
 agree to the terms and conditions? All mine seems to do is sit there 
 for ages and then finally bring up the disc thingy where you want to 
 install it. Really really annoying and the last time I just tried it to 
 try to reinstall because of random sleep wake issues, I got no 
 voiceover feedback, I did turn off but when I tried to turn it back on 
 it wouldn't do anything. Guess it's also worth noting that in the 
 services submenu it says  building.
 What in the heck is it doing, and it would really be nice to have more 
 feedback than that if it's actually downloading it.

Re: Decreasing startup time, any tips and tricks?

2013-12-03 Thread Dane Trethowan
Most of them I knew but I did apply those concerning software that starts at 
Login, thought I'd take a look and there were several things I didn't need or 
that had been deleted from the computer entirely, I made the necessary changes 
and that has made a difference so regardless of whether these tips work or they 
don't they're still good maintanence tips if nothing else.

I was most interested to read the discussion about how much free drive space is 
optimal for a Mac, that's something I've never considered before and probably 
because the drive on my Mac computers is or never has been anywhere near full 
as most of my content is written to and read from external media.

Curiously the page doesn't discuss disk defragmentation though I can possibly 
see why, Drive Defragmentation on a Mac computer isn't a serious performance 
issue for most Mac users, it only becomes an issue really when you start doing 
heavy disk dependent tasks such as Audio and Video editing.

For those who don't want to worry about the defragmentation of your drive then 
there's always the quick fix, backup your drive, erase the drive and restore 
the backup back to the drive.

 What in the heck is it doing, and it would really be nice to have more

I need a VO accessible metronome or beeping app

2013-12-03 Thread Chris Goodwin
Hi all,

I do a lot of cycle training on a static bike and my coach sets me sessions 
where I need to cycle at 70 revs per minute, 80 rpm, 90 rpm, 100 rpm and so on. 
 I therefore want an app that beeps at these kinds of rates.

I've looked at about 4 or 5 musicians metronome apps where all but one wasn't 
usable with voice over.  the one that I could just about use though wouldn't 
let me set the rpm as I wanted - it kept to 4 bpm intervals.

I've googled the topic without luck.

Can anyone suggest an app where I can set the beeps per minute so I can then 
cycle along at that speed for up to about 6 minutes at a time?

Many thanks all,

Chris

Re: I need a VO accessible metronome or beeping app

2013-12-03 Thread Esther
Hi Chris,

I have a slightly different suggestion that might work well for you.  There's a 
musician's app called GigBabyFree! by ioMetrics LLC that is quite accessible, 
and that has a built in metronome:
• GigBabyFree! (free) by ioMetrics LLC
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/gigbabyfree!/id306833575?mt=8
I have the paid version of their GigDaddy MultiTrack Mixer app which is also 
accessible, and this is a cut down version.  This is actually better than a 
straight metronome, because it comes with a list if backing rhythm tracks that 
you can play at the tempo that you set up on the first screen.  So let's say 
you open the app at the tempo screen (the selected first of four tabs at the 
bottom of the screen).  Flick right to the text field for the tempo, double 
tap, and then use the on-screen keyboard to change that value and type in the 
number of beats per minute you want to use (e.g., 100.0), and double tap 
return at the bottom right corner of the keyboard to enter the value. There's 
also a slider, but it works in percentages, so just use the text box. Now you 
could just flick to and double tap the start button that is just above the 
Tempo tab at the bottom left of the screen to start the beat, and double tap 
again to stop it, but let's make this more interesting.

Double tap the Rhythms tab that is the 4th tab at the bottom right corner of 
the screen -- also the last element in the screen, so you can navigate there 
with a four finger tap on the bottom half of the screen.

On the GigBaby! Rhythms screen there's an alphabetical listing of rhythm 
tracks with a table index along the right side.  Let's sample the track Funk 
1. Flick to it and double tap.  On the screen that comes up, flick the 
Listen button and double tap. Double tap again to stop the sample playing, 
then move back to the previous screen of rhythms. Double tap the Tempo tab to 
get back to the Tempo screen. Now when you double tap the Start button you'll 
hear the rhythm track you selected playing at the specified tempo.  If you 
navigate to the first element of the screen with a four finger tap in the top 
half of the screen, you'll hear VO announce the name of the track that is 
playing, Funk 1. Flicking right will give you the bar number, and them the 
beat number. (In this free version of the app, the tracks are on a 4/4 count.) 
So you can easily work out how many minutes you've been playing the track by 
counting the number of bars, multiplying this by 4 for the total number of 
beats and dividing by the beats per minute you used for the tempo. If you want 
to reset the beat and bar counters, after double tapping the Stop button, 
flick right to the Restart button and double tap.

The other thing you could do is simply identify songs in your iTunes music 
library according to their beats per minute (BPM).  That's actually one of the 
fields you can fill in for each track.  Then you can make workout smart 
playlists where you choose your music according to the BPM, and for a total 
playing time up to some fixed total.  Or you could simply loop the playback of 
some of your favorite songs with the correct BPM.  There are some famous 
examples of songs with certain BPM values.  When people are trained to 
administer CPR to heart attack victims, they should optimally press at a rate 
of about 100 BPM.  The common way of getting people to remember the correct 
tempo is to get them to keep the pace of Stayin' Alive - the song the Bee 
Gees sang for the John Travolta movie, Saturday Night Fever. (It's actually 
about 104 BPM).  You could use the metronome feature to identify songs in your 
music collection that are close to the BPM rates you want to train with.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: Merry Christmas From the Sky.Fm Radio App

2013-12-03 Thread Dane Trethowan
About as accessible with Voiceover as you can get smile.

The free service should be fine though I don't know what to expect from the 
free service these days as I haven't used that in years.

If my memory serves me correctly you'll probably cop a little advertising, an 
announcement every now and then and obviously the quality won't be as good as 
it could be but then again its free so enjoy!

 The Sky.Fm Christmas channel is back up until around the middle of January 
 next year so download the Sky.Fm App and Have Yourself A Very Merry 
 Christmas and an even better quality one if you have the Sky.Fm premium

 I've googled the topic without luck.
 
 Can anyone suggest an app where I can set the beeps per minute so I can then

Re: I need a VO accessible metronome or beeping app

2013-12-03 Thread Phil Halton
Tempo Perfect by nch software is an excellent metronome for the IOS platform. 
They probably have a version for Mac OSX as well. Of course, it deals with 
beats per minute, not revolutions per minute, but that's not a big problem as I 
think you just want a steady beat that can be adjusted faster or slower.
