Re: [Mac-access]: IOS BT keyboards was re:: Iphone 5 or 4S
where is the key that turns on and off the virtual keyboard on the bluetooth keyboard for use with the iphone? On 14 Apr 2015, at 23:24, Diane Bomare bomon...@earthlink.net wrote: I have the Amazon Basics keyboard, and an Apple bluetooth keyboard. Here are advantages of each. Amazon Keyboard : less expensive; on/off switch separate button for pairing; smaller than Apple keyboard, so keys are smaller and there is not a vertical T for arrow keys; Most of the keys are the same size; Up/down arrow keys are sandwiched between left/right arrow keys; Uses AAA batteries; Made of plastic; Apple bluetooth keyboard Aluminum; Nice spacing between keys Inverted T for arrow keys Good responsiveness Difficult to know when keyboard is turned off, after using; Toggle button to turn keyboard on/off is flush with one end of the back of keyboard. It has to be pushed in for several seconds, to toggle on/off. There is no tactile/audio feedback to know when this status changes. Tapping a key will let you know if it is still on, but I have had times when I thought it was off, then try to use the virtual keyboard from another room, and it won't come up because the BT keyboard is still on. The Amazon keyboard has a slide switch on the bottom, abd ut us easy to know if it is on or off. Both keyboards have a key to turn the virtual keyboard on and off, in case you want to use both of them. The batteries last a long time in each, and are easily replaced. Both keyboards have the apostrophe/double quote key to the right of the simicolon/colon key. Each have function, control, option, command keys, in that order to the left of the space bar. To the right are the command and option keys. I prefer typing on the Apple keyboard, because of its responsivemess, but it probably isn't worth the difference in price. Regarding the phone choice, I would suggest that you get a 5s, rather than a 5. It is a 64-bit phone with the touch ID feature, a faster processor, and will support future versions of IOS longer than an iPhone 5.

[Mac-access]: Mac Questions
When I am logging in to my Mac the volume of voice over is just fine but once I get to finder the volume is greatly increased. I have reduced this volume when at the finder but again next time I login again the volume has again reverted to very loud. How can I make it that it does not do this? I would also like to make one of my three e-mail addresses the default one, currently I have to keep changing it as iCloud is the default. Finally I seem to have 2 groups of Contacts in my contacts app, iCloud and Google. Is it possible simply to merge these as I would rather have all together. I also do not know how to navigate to the information in a contact from the contact table where the particular contact is highlighted.

I note that there is an option called other in this sub menu but I then get lost trying to navigate the screen when I press enter on this item. VLC is already downloaded and in my applications folder.

[Mac-access]: Connecting A Nokia Phone to My Mac
Hi All, I want to connect my Nokia E6 to my Mac in order that I can access the Memory Card, copy a file from it and paste the file on the Mac. The file I want to copy is Talks which is used on Nokia phones as a screen reader. I then want to cut and paste the Talks file to another Nokia phone’s memory drive. How can I do this? Presumably my Mac can see my phone’s memory card as an external drive. it is not showing up on the desktop as a drive and when I go to computer I am not finding it. Can someone please tell me how to locate this memory card as external hard drive.

However there is now a problem with the iPod Nano and so I instead want to access podcasts on my iPhone 5S. When I had an iPhone 3GS running IOS 6 podcasts appeared in the Music App on the iPhone and were synced with iTunes just like they are on the iPod Nano. that worked fine. Now on the iPhone 5S I cannot see podcasts in the Music App at all. I see that there is a Podcast App on the iPhone and if I open that I see the same list of podcasts as in iTunes on my iMac. However my iPhone contains a large number of podcasts which I have already listened to on the iPod. I would really like the iPhone 5S to behave like the iPhone 3GS and sync podcasts with iTunes in the normal way so that podcasts appear in the Music App on the iPhone 5S. How can I accomplish this? If the above is not possible is there any way to mark a large number of podcasts or even all podcasts in the iPhone podcasts App as played to reduce confusion? Many thanks for any help….

Sorry this is a bit late, but I've been going through my email and deleting unwanted messages to try and find the root cause of a rather odd problem. But here is a tip I found yesterday on AppleVis, which can help with email verbosity. Apologies in advance if this is a duplicate post. But you can actually control how much of the message is read when just arrowing to it or going through email for the first time or whatever. To do this, bring up the View menu by going to mail Preferences with Command-Comma, and then tab to the View menu. I had to turn Quicknav on in order to find the exact setting, but it is called List Preview. You will find a pop-up menu which lets you control the number of lines read after announcing the message.

Re: Mac Keyboard Key and Word Echo
Well I am not so sure this is what I want though I am not doubting your instruction. I did not set up an activity, just that vo is saying finder activity and when I open Mail vo says mail activity.

Re: General Mac Query - A Clarification
Ah I am going to attempt a reply here so that I am participating as well as asking questions. The Dock is a designated area running along the bottom of the screen and your commonly used apps are housed there. Some people have a lot of apps on the dock whereas others do not. The advantage of the dock is that it saves going in to the Applications folder which you would have to do once on the Desktop. Visually sighted people get a quick glance at all their apps and for us we get there very quickly. If you have Mail on the dock, then once in the dock you can hit the letter M. However if you have more than one app starting with the letter M such as messages it is quicker to press the initial two letters of the word as hitting M twice does not jump you to all the different apps starting with the letter M. Now the desktop has some icons on it but mainly shows up volumes which are referred to on Windows machine as drives. You could have a lot of items ion the desktop but it i s not designed for that purpose. Finder is the app that controls the desktop. Apologies to experienced users if this is simple and basic and hopefully not inaccurate. I just want to get some experience also of answering questions for others.

At this point I would like to say I have good experience of Windows and it is because of this I am finding some of these Mac concepts difficult rather than them being intuitive. Here goes then, 1. I think as a rule of thumb quic nav is mainly used for navagating the web but not otherwise. Is this correct? 2. While I know that single key navagation can be used with the tab key, I cannot work out when I need to tab and when I need to vo right arrow. 3.

When someone has guided me they have said to interact and now uninteract, left to my own devices I cannot make a decision as to when to interact and when not to.

Re: Time Capsule

I personally do not use one. as I don't need one. If you had a router and felt comfortable using it as a network storage device, NAS, then you could go that route. Otherwise you could just get a 2tb drive for probably under $100 and do your time machine back ups that way. I know you will get other opinions on the list about what to use, but as for me since I am the only mac user at home, this is all I need, I have a cheap 1tb drive for my time machine back ups that will hopefully soon be replaced with a 2 or 4 tb elements drive by WD.

Re: How Do I Tell IF A Programme Has Installed
Thank you for such a comprehensive reply David do I get clean my Mac from the App Store Sent from my iPhone On 30 Mar 2014, at 14:49, David Griffith d.griff...@btinternet.com wrote: Well first of all you will never encounter this if you only install appps from the App Store. However not all the useful programs are available from the App Store and I believe that Audacity is in that category. Traditionally Mac programs Were distributed on CD and the disk image was intended to replicate this on the Mac. What happens when you open the dis image file is that a virtual drive is created on your desktop much as if you had inserted a CD or DVD into your Mac.. With most applications originating from Mac programmers you will tend to find that the disk image simply contains application files which you copy to the application folder to run. In this sense the Mac was much neater than Windows as you did not have a setup process to go through. You simply copied an app to the application folder and then deleted it from the application folder if you no longer wanted the program. So there was no need for an add remove programs function like in Windows. However life is not as neat as that and many programs, including I believe Audacity, are ported across from Windows and may insist on a setup process. You will find for another example, that Adobe will even on the Mac, insist on a windows style setup program. This and other issues has created a situation where debris can be left on the Mac much like a Windows machine which is why people use utilities like clean my Mac nowadays. Anyway the basic rule of thumb when you open the disk image drive on your desktop is to 1. if there are simply appp files just copy everything to your application folder. 2. If there is however a program called install or setup you will have to run that from the disk image.

Matthew Hello, Thank you for your email. As you described the issue, it sounds like the contact list may not be releasing VoiceOver focus correctly when you leave that window. We recommend that you contact Skype and provide them with this feedback so they can verify they are using the accessibility frameworks correctly. We will also forward this on to our Developer Relations group to see if they can reach out to the developers at Skype and assist them.

Re: Minimising Maximising on the Mac
Yes thanks the last tip is good too as sometimes I don't want to close the window that is inactive but I don't want it sitting in the middle of the screen either. What key press do people use to answer a Skype call? I know you don't use Skype David. - Original Message - From: David Griffith d.griff...@btinternet.com To: 'OS X iOS Accessibility' mac-access@mac-access.net Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2014 9:44 AM Subject: Minimising Maximising on the Mac As far as I am aware there is no inbuilt OS level Maximisation function in the Mac OS. This is one of areas the Mac works differently to Windows. Having said that you can achieve the same affect often within programs. This is often achieved using command F or command shift F. So in Preview you will find full screen which by pressing command F and in VLC you can put DVDs into full screen mode by pressing command shift F. I may have got these commands mixed up but experiment and you will find the one which works. So generally in the program you are using you need to look in the View Menu and look to see if there is a full screen option or alternatively there may be a full screen button on the toolbar. I believe that a similar result can also be achieved by pressing the zoom button on toolbars in some programs but as I cannot see the screen I cannot confirm that this is the case. I have heard also of third party apps which provide a minimisation function but I have no experience of these. In terms of minimising windows try using command M or alternatively command H to hide a window.

Beginner's Questions The Web
I am having problems accessing links, headings etc on the web in an effecient manner. Quick Nav is turned on and I have also checked that navagating by single character is checked. Now my problems are that the only way I am able to navigate a page is by using the right arrow so 10 presses of it will take me to the 10th link, that is if there are no headings in between, in which case it will take me even longer. I can bring up the roter with vo and u and this tells me how many links, headings etc there are but pressing enter once or twice on any of these just gives me a beep. Finally if I move on to another web page and want to go back I do not know how to do this, so quick on a Windows machine with a 2 key press and I am back. Please help! Thanks.

Re: Magnification with Mac
Hi Brian, you will be aware that I have looked at the in-built Zoom on my Mac. While it reaches a satisfactory magnification level for me what I have found that I need to use a mouse to get around the screen due to the magnification. To this end, I have used an Apple Magic mouse which is a bluetooth mouse. What I have encountered is that the mouse movement is very sluggish indeed so unlike using a mouse on my Windows machine with Supernova. Now my question to you is if the student found the same problem with the mouse and furthermore with Zoomtext is there a sluggish mouse on high magnification? - Original Message - From: Bryan Jones openses...@me.com To: OS X iOS Accessibility mac-access@mac-access.net Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2014 1:37 PM Subject: Re: Magnification with Mac Hello Eleanor, On my Mac running OS 10.9.2 I am able to activate the Zoom hotkeys by going to System Preferences / Accessibility / Zoom.

Re: Magnification with Mac
Hi Brian, I wish to try both forms of magnification but I have asked on a few lists about a hot key to put on magnification but nobody has responded. I am fairly sure that a key combination on the fly using one of the function keys brings it up and increases it, once I try this out I will then move to the Zoomtext but as you say a hefty price at £375 sterling.

The student did say they liked Zoomtext’s larger mouse pointer options and that Zoomtext did a better job of keeping the cursor in focus, but this student decided the extra features provided beyond what comes built into OSX’s Zoom functions were not worth the price. YMMV of course, and I’m interested to hear your opinion after you’ve tried the demo. Richie — There is a version of Zoomtext Magnifier for the Mac.

Re: Magnification with Mac
OK thanks for that but can you tell me how to bring up the magnification on Mac, how to increase and decrease it. Thanks. - Original Message - From: Haghighi,Amin haghi...@oclc.org To: OS X iOS Accessibility mac-access@mac-access.net Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2014 1:18 PM Subject: Re: Magnification with Mac I use zoom text on MAC.
