Query about iTunes album's and groupings

2009-04-14 Thread Scott Rutkowski
HI all.

Can anyone please advise how I can do the following in iTunes?
OK the deal is I have a box set the metallica collection I just purchased.
Now alll the albums in the box set are all named the metallica collection then 
under this title all the albums are grouped in to groupings and all the tracks 
for each album are part of the box set.
My query is if i use the browser to look up metallica then look up the album 
then under the grouping column I can see all the albums listed. I want to sort 
all the albums in to their own playlists by using the grouping column. Is this 
possible and if so how is it done?

At first when I looked up metallica in the browser i thought i would be able to 
sort by albums but no it shows up as the metallica collection and each album is 
grouped in their own grouping.
Thanks to anyone who can assist.

Removing office 2008

2009-04-14 Thread Scott Ford

Hello everyone,
I need to remove office 2008 From my Mac.  How do I do this and  
restore the system to the oem state so that I can read things.  I  
cannot read anything including pdf's or files.  The system tells me  
the file name or I can go full screen.  This sucks.  I can open and  
read the documents with the text editor though.   Thank you for any  
assistance.
Scott

Re: webkit vs. safari beta?

2009-04-14 Thread Mike Arrigo

I think the newest official release of safari is 3.2, not completely  
sure on that though. I would use software update and get the newest  
official release of everything first. I use the nightly builds of  
webkit and several issues have been fixed since the last release of  
safari, so I would give that a try.

Greg Kearney's new job

2009-04-14 Thread Greg Kearney

As many of you know I was looking for work for the last few months,  
well I am happy to announce that I have secured employment. I have  
accepted the position of Manager of Accessible Technology at the  
Association for the Blind of Western Australia in Perth and will start  
immediately working form the U.S. while I await the clearance to enter  
and work in Australia.

You can think of my job as the Western Australian version of what  
Andrew Furlong does in Melbourne with Vision Australia. I will oversee  
the conversion of the tape library to DAISY format,  help to manage  
the Beyond Books Beyond Barriers project for ABWA and the State  
Library of Western Australia (www.cucat.org/library/ and work in other  
areas of accessible media. I will also have a more formal position  
with Curtin University and the Curtin University Centre for Accessible  
Technology working on research and development of accessible technology.

My wife, Tamara, will be working with me at ABWA developing a training  
programme for blind massage therapists and in braille production.

I want to thank all of you for your help and suggestions over these  
last few months. I look forward to working more closely with the Daisy  
Consortium in the future.

webkit vs. safari beta?

2009-04-14 Thread Arthur Pirika

hi all, I'm helping a friend with her new mac, and I'm noticing that 
seemingly in some cases, when downloading disk images, the machine seems to 
freeze. My friend still uses safari 3.1 that came with the system, so the 
question is, would upgrading either safari or webkit solve the problem, and 
what would people recommend, safari 4 beta, or latest nightly webkit build?

thanks,
Arthur.

Re: Copy to Clipboard in Twitteriffic

2009-04-14 Thread Josh de Lioncourt


It will play the default sound, usually an error beep of some kind, if  
it can't paste. It's easy to miss though. Also, I recommend  
interacting with the text of the tweet, moving past the name, then  
using VO_Down to read just the message. Pressing VO-Shift-C at this  
point will copy only the message and not the person's display name,  
which will usually keep the tweet from being too long to paste.

IBM Lotus Symphony

2009-04-14 Thread E.J. Zufelt

Good morning,

Has anyone tried IBM Lotus Symphony and can you say if it is  
accessible with Voiceover?  I believe from the little research that  
I've done that it only implements IAccessible2, like Firefox, and is  
likely not accessible.

Wouldn't it be nice if:

1. Voiceover supported IAccessible2, or
2. Someone would write an UA to IAccessible2 bridge / wrapper.

Thanks,
Everett

RE: syncing my nokia phone

2009-04-14 Thread Simon Fogarty

It is possible but it's a 3rd party tool that you use to connect nokia
devices to mac machines.

Re: Airport Exstream with DHCP issues

2009-04-14 Thread Scott Howell

Tim, ok I see the reason why I didn't find it. Being that Apple  
changed the menus a great deal, the directions you provided are  
correct. However, since I use Verizon's ADSL service, I have to use  
PPPOE and you have to changed that to eathr net to enable or disable  
dhcp. I suspect it was setup this way because as far as I know you can  
only have dhcp when using PPPOE or that may be an industry standard  
way of implementing PPPOE with providers who use that.

thanks,

Re: Airport Exstream with DHCP issues

2009-04-14 Thread Scott Howell

Hey Tim, you know I was looking for that setting on my Time Capsule  
and I could not locate it at all. I wonder if the Extreme is slightly  
different? Should not be the case, but I will follow your steps and  
see if I can locate this option. I have the latest software for my  
Time Capsule which is 7.41. I can't imagine that Apple would have  
removed the ability to turn off dhcp. :) I accessed the setup in a  
similar fashion, but maybe I missed it in some way, but will check  
again.

RE: Mac mini

2009-04-14 Thread Simon Fogarty
yes, 900 usa dollars, that's in the area of $1800 NZ dollars, so as I'm in
new Zealand, I'd rather spend $1300, on a mac mini than spend $1800 on a mac
book. but I do also think that portability would be great and yeah the
macbook has that where the mac mini don't.

I wonder if a small laptop would be a better long-term solution. You can
then take it anywhere to do stuff while on the couch or while traveling. You
can get a basic 13" 2GHz MacBook for US$999 at the Apple Store today. You
might also check Apple's store for refurbished items which can save you some
more. Generally these will get you a better machine for the same or higher
cost rather than a bargain basement price.

Hi alex,

apples are a truck load more costly than the prices you quoted.



 20inch imac is $2500  startting price.



 The mac mini starts at $1300.00  these are prices for new devices so not

second hand.

Hi,



A cheap Apple Branded Keyboard/Mouse is easy to come by if you get a Mini

for less than $100. If you are in the Education Market, Apple sells a 17

Inch IMac for $899.



Thanks,

Alex,

Hi Simon,



the MacMini is a great device if you don't need to be mobile with it 

and if you already have a screen and/or a keyboard which you want to 

use.

Otherwise

the small 20" iMac is a good alternative because it might be cheaper 

than a MacMini with screen and keyboard. The internal hardware of the 

Mini and a small MacBook is nearly the same so this is only a 

secondary criteria in my opinion. I would recommend this to you:

- take a Mini if you don't need to be mobile (e.g. for

school/university/work) and you already have a keyboard and screen

- take a iMac if you don't need to be mobile and you have neighter a 

keyboard nor a screen

- take a MacBook if you need to be mobile



I've once taken the Mini because I didn't need a scrren and an iMac 

was too expensive for me at this time.



hth, Pierre

Hi.

All mac computers are intel based today, and therefore you can run 

windows or linux or any other operating system that runs on intle 

computers in a virtual machine.



Whether you buy a mac mini or mac book laptop depends on your

  

requirements.



Be ware that the mini is the cheapest of the mac systems and that it 

comes without mouse, keyboard and a screen.

While of corse the laptops and the Imac is fully configured machines 

with everything contained such as a keyboard and screen.



Best regards, Jesper.

hi folks,



I'm contimplating buying a mac,



and I'm thinking that the mac mini might be a good deal as it will 

be based in the house rather than a laptop for carrying round.



Is the mac mini a Intel based device or not?

As I'd be wanting a windows VM also is it going to be a worthwhile 

purchase or should I be looking at the mac book instead?



Thanks for any input here.



Cheers
