[Mac-Access]: Is anyone still around this list?

[Robert Hill]

Hi all,

With all the furor of the past while, I temporarily unsubscribed from the list.

I thought I'd subscribe again, and see what's happening here.

Just wondering who's still left here.

That sure is a puzzle, about why it doesn't work for everyone.
It seems like it's easier to subscribe than unsubscribe for some reason.

[Mac-Access]: Re: [Mac-Access)': I would like to un subscribed from this list

[Robert Hill]

Hello everyone,

Well, maybe things are getting more toward normal or something, but I was able 
to use the following procedure to unsubscribe, and resubscribe this morning.

Send an email message as follows:

mac-access-requ...@mac-access.net

Leave the subject blank.

In the message body put the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotation marks)

That should get you unsubscribed.

If you want a list of commands that you can use send an email to the above 
address, and in the body of the message put "help" without the quotes.

What I found is if I have the mailbox list hidden I can jump between the

Re: Important info for Gmail users to read before updating to Mavericks

[Robert Hill]

Hi all,

It has been awhile since I made the changes to gmail, and now I am having 
difficulty getting through the interface to make the midifications to the "all 
mail" item so gmail and Mavericks will play nice.
Any refreshers on how to get the basic html interface for gmail, so I can find 
the correct spot in settings to get this done?

Thanks for any suggestions.

iPod 4th generation upgrade to iOS 6.1 stuck

[Robert Hill]

Hi all,

I attempted to upgrade my wife's iPod 4th generation to iOS 6.1.
The device froze after it was supposed to reboot, and now we can't do anything 
with it, no shut down, no reset, etc.
I tried connecting it to my Macintosh  , but iTunes doesn't recognize it.
Is there any keystroke combination  to get the device "unstuck"?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: Recovering from VoiceOver problems

One other thing to try, as long as you're using the Magic Trackpad, do a 
three-finger double tap to unmute VoiceOver, and see if that works.
I have heard that that will solve the problem.

Re: Something Weird

[Robert Hill]

Would it be possible that the screen curtain was inadvertendly turned on.
It would only be active when VoiceOver is on.
Try a three-finger triple tap to see if Screen curtain toggles on and off.

Re: Braille Screen Covers for iPad

[Robert Hill]

I just looked at the SpeedDots web site, and they say the iPad will be getting 
screen covers soon.
With the national conventions for the organizations for the blind coming up, 
I'd guess that there will be news soon.

Go to:

Hi Margaret and all,

The name of the program is bean, like the vegetable.

Take care.
