Re: [Mac-access]: Compatible Mac Keyboards
speaking of this, I am looking for an ergonomic keyboard which is compatible with the mac. I’ve tried the microsoft wave one and the intellitype one, which are supposed to be mac compatible. Both were recognized as a laptop keyboard, even though they both have the num pad attached. I really want the full set of keys on the right side of my spacebar so I don’t have to do hand gymnastics for some commands!! thanks, Cait On Apr 5, 2015, at 9:21 AM, Ann Byrne ann...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Because I don't like the touch on the Apple keyboard, I bought a McAlly keyboard instead. it was inexpensive, had a great feel, and only some of the time would it respond to the VO keys.

I'm looking at other keyboards to use with my Mac other than the one shipped with the Mac or the one you buy from Apple, I've been using a Bluetooth keyboard and there's nothing wrong with the board per say though I'm very much impressed with the look and feel of the latest Logitech offering I'm using on my Windows machine, the MX800. I did a Google search on compatible Mac keyboards and discovered the Logitedh diNovo keyboard, its a Bluetooth board and seems to be very highly regarded so I thought I'd give it a try, I've ordered one and I should have it after Easter though I do warn anyone considering this keyboard that it will set you back around $100. If anyone on the list has tried one of these boards then I'd be most interested in hearing hwat you think or perhaps you've tried another Mac compatible keyboard offering. -- ** Those who need help are those who are prepared to help themselves --- 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 the list's public Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/.

I am currently running Windows 8.1 Professional under Fusion 7 and Lynne is as I write finishing off the setup of the sane operating system under Parallels.

We will post it in an accessible place and let you grab it at your heart’s content. That aside, I can honestly say that running Fusion now with this new version is just like running Windows in a native environment. They’ve obviously done a lot of fine tuning and the result is staring me in the face right now. And it honestly could not have come at a better time.

Re: applescript code to count words in text edit
Travis, thanks so much! After we get the scripts, where do we put them? Cait On Nov 18, 2013, at 10:33 PM, Travis Siegel tsie...@softcon.com wrote: Well, Since I wrote the last reply, I've fixed the issue with the file not found error. But then I decided the script was worse than junk, and rewrote the whole thing. Now it counts words, lines and paragraphs, as well as presents the results in a nice dialog box with the name of the document so you know for sure which file is being counted. I'm not sure it's word counts are all that accurate, as it told me on one of my documents that I had only 605 words, but over 2700 lines, and 94000 characters in the document, so clearly, the word count was off, but It could have been an issue with the formatting of the document, since it was a converted html document. So, there it is. I'd wager it could be used with other editors too, if they support scripting, but I've not tested any, so can't say for sure. hope this helps.

refresh memory about installing lion
Hi, Ok, I think I might need to reinstall lion here, but can't remember exactly the steps on how to do it. My keyboard doesn't seem to be sending the correct characters to the mac. For instance, when I try and rename a file, it says apple, in between each character I'm typing, but it does type the correct character. It's taking an extraordinarily long time to boot and sometimes I have to hit the space bar to get it to finish booting, but not always. I also can't seem to get some videos to work on the 'net, although others work fine, and these same videos work fine on Mark's I Mac. I've spent a couple of hours with apple support today, and the only thing they've done so far is try and select the correct language for my keyboard which didn't fix the weird apple problem. The tech guy did a remote session and he didn't see any menus pop up while voice over was saying apple. Things didn't seem to be tracking properly, either, British was selected in the language menu table while Canadaian was highlighted, for example. My cursor tracking is on right now and I have mouse follows voice over cursor in the vo utility, fyi. The tech person said that he had to escalate this to engineering because this shouldn't be happening and that he'd call me back, but as of yet, nothing has happened. He was supposed to email me a ticket number, but all he emailed me was a stupid link for my support stuff with apple. He also said I might have to reinstall Lion. Does anybody have any ideas about what might be going on with my system and how to fix this and how to reinstall lion if I need to do that? How do I do a clean install, if that's possible? Mark made a disk, if that's helpful, when we first installed lion. I'm running the latest lion update. Thanks for any help! Nothing like having a computer start acting up right before finals!

problems with videos in safari
Hi, I'm having problems with a particular web site and accessing videos on it with my i mac. I'm using the latest build of Safari, whatever number we're up to now, and I've also tried it with Chrome, I think the version I have is 16. anyway, the videos are supposed to be embedded into the site's pages and play automatically when you select them, but they don't, at least, not on my mac. I contacted the guy who runs the site and he said he developed the web site on a mac and it works fine with his and to try rebooting and also to try chrome. Well, I did those things and nothing works. What I have done is to uninstall click to flash from my machine. I've tested the site on Mark's mac and it works on his, but you have do a mouse click with vo shift space on the video title to get it to play. I've gone to the site on our windows machine with the screen reader he uses and it works there no problems. I can watch you tube videos fine on here otherwise. any ideas?

partitioning an external drive for a bootable backup
Hi, Can somebody refresh my memory on how to create a bootable external disk for snow leopard using disk utility? I want to upgrade to lion finally and want to make a back up of my mac which is now running snow leopard. I have carbon copy cloner, but I want to make a bootable external drive with my external drive, just in case something goes wrong. Also, is anyone currently running fusion version 3 with win xp under lion? I heard it doesn't work, so don't want to do this upgrade if that's so, since I need fusion and k1000 for my school.. thanks, Cait Caitlyn Furness caitlyn.furn...@gmail.com --- 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/.

knowing the length of an mp3 file
Hi, Is there any way to know the running time of an mp3 file while viewing the file in the folder list?

Re: MobileGeo replacement?
coming in late on this.. I still have my old htc phone, running without a sim card, no phone number attached to it, and geo works fine, despite what both sendero and code factory have said. I have navigon, ariadne and sendero look around on my i phone. Only reason I am keeping geo is I just got it last summer and spent oodles on it! All these things are good, comparisons are hard, though, at least for me they are.. hth, Caitlyn Caitlyn Furness caitlyn.furn...@gmail.com On Oct 14, 2011, at 4:25 PM, Bryan Jones wrote: Hello John, I'm sure you'll get lots of opinions here regarding the best IOS based replacements for Geo. Three other resources you might want to check out are: 1. You can search the mail archive for this list by using the link provided at the bottom of each email. 2. You can find reviews of apps including navigation apps on www.applevis.com. 3. You can also listen to some good podcasts by `mike Arrigo comparing various navigation apps. Those can be found on the www.blindcooltech.com site. With regard to keeping your old phone number, if I remember correctly Geo and it's maps are loaded locally on the phone or SD card and thus require no cellular data connection, just a GPS signal. If that is still the case, then you should be able to use your old winmob phone as a standalone device dedicated just to Geo and this would allow you to transfer your existing phone number to your new phone if so desired.

Now I expect with the builtin compass I should be beter off knowing if I am walking in the right direction from the start, but will I need a 32GB phone to store a GPS app on it or am I fairly safe with a smaller phone. Also, should I initially get a new phone number, so I can keep my codefactory license live until I learn the iPhone?

Re: anybody else having problems upgrading to ios 5?
Hi James, Ok, I can certainly try that. I've tried a couple of times now with varying results, but still no luck getting it installled. I do think it successfully downloaded to my mac, though. It keeps saying my phone can't be restored because of an internal error, which seems weird to me. I forgot to say I'm still running snow leopard, if that matters, but don't think it does in this case... Let us know how Lynn makes out. The update just became available in our area about an hour and a half ago, actually, according to the sms my carrier sent me on my phone.

keyboard question
Hi, I was at the apple store yesterday during al the Lion madness and mac book air goings on for my friend to get a new iphone and I found out there are actually drivers for my ergonomic keyboard so I canuse it with my i mac. I got the latest onesand put them on, but now I've got no control and option keys on theright side of the keyboard. The physical keys are there, but they don't work now. obviously, this is frustrating,since I can't do vo commands with the right side, nor can I now use my time apple script with the right option key and t. anybody got any ideas? This is the microsoft intellitype pro keyboard(unfortunately, but it's nice for typing if you've got carpal tunnel). I haven't used it long enough yet to see if other things aren't working as expected. I looked in system prefs to see if there's a place in the keyboard section to tell the mac this is the right control key, etc, but didn't see anything.
