how to fix rebuilding services

2010-10-31 Thread Ray Foret Jr
Sarah,

I suspect I've found an answer to your rebuilding services dilemma.

Per Apple’s Services Implementation Guide, you can trigger an immediate rescan 
of Services using the

pbs
tool:

/System/Library/CoreServices/pbs


Try that and let us know.

Never heard of that but all I did was restart that computer and it worked.. if 
i have to launch this pbs tool via terminal forget it. I'm not comfortable with 
it yet. lol!
 I could probably use onyx to do the same thing maybe.

Hi,
I have only started to work with keyote as well and you're right that it
does seem complicated. To move from slide to slide I hit page up and page
down. That moves you consecutively through the slides. Hittin home or end
will take you to the first and last slide. There must be a way to jump to a
specific slide but I haven't figured it out. 

Hope this helps,

 Hi folks,
 I was wandering if any of you uses keynote, and how accessible it is.
Numbers and pages work great for me, but when I want to view a presentation
(for example a power point one that someone has sent me) it is complicated.
I first interact with the layout area and interact with the slide and then
with the text to read it, and sometimes vo doesn't read all of it. Then i
have to stop interacting with all of that and interact with the scroll area
an then the slides table to change the slide and go back to read it.
 Do you know if there is an easier way of accomplishing reading a
presentation?
 Also, is it easy to create one?
 Thank you for your help,
 Rafaela

Go to your applications folder (CND + SHFT+ A, then, highlight the app you

Alternatively, open the app, go to the doc, find the app, VO+M on the icon,
then, go to options, then, keep in doc.

I have also experienced this as well!
I'm using a Imac, what I've found is when I'm changing a file name and just 
pressed the return key to select edit the name and start typing the new name it 
says apple in a few letters  like you've said!
However when i've let vo say [1-01 abba .m4a edit text]
That apple thing does not happen so I presume that typing before it's ready 
will cause this but what it means by saying apple I do not know!

Re: free antivirus for mac

2010-10-31 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi all,

I've been watching these virus protection threads for a while and still ask the 
question:

• What makes you feel the need to have such an animal on your Mac?

There are really no virus threats within MacOS X.  There were a number of them 
in OS 9 but most of you, if running Snow Leopard, don't have any OS 9 matter on 
your computer anyway as Classic is no longer supported.  There is the argument 
that you may unintentionally pass things on as you forward eMails from Windows 
users but that can be easily managed by watching what's attached to the 
messages you pass on.  check out this article for your own interpretation:

http://www.silvermac.com/2008/why-there-are-no-viruses-for-osx/

FYI, I haven't used a virus protection package myself since OS 9 and I don't 
use them at my place of work either where we're running close to a 1000 Macs.

Just my opinion and you can take it however you choose.

Thanks.

Re: free antivirus for mac

2010-10-31 Thread Karen Lewellen

Tim,
terrific article, and I agree with you.
Perhaps I am an innocent, but even those bugs one might get from a windows 
user are not going to harm your mac.   I tend to guess that those who are 
seriously running virtual environments where windows remains an important 
part of their computing life have a reason for concern, but even there 
I may be wrong.

Re: free antivirus for mac

2010-10-31 Thread Scott Howell
Tim,

I have to concur since I have not had any issues in five years. Now at work I 
do have a Mac and it does have an antivirus program. I believe it is NOrton, 
but that was not my choice. The antivirus program is a standard part of the 
core load, so I just ignore it. Actually I do not believe I have ever noticed 
it running, so might be it just scans flash drives and the like.

Re: free antivirus for mac

2010-10-31 Thread Bryan Jones
IMHO it all boils down to the last line in the referenced article. That line 
is, No system is totally safe, but Macs have a lot of architecture working in 
their favor.

Wen somebody tells me my system is not totally safe then I'm the type of 
person who is willing to spend a little time, energy and maybe money to move my 
system closer to being totally safe.

Any computer and any O S is subject to misuse. While the security holes, 
malware and attacks targeting OSX are well documented, it is important to 
remember that security involves much more than preventing malware attacks. OSX 
and the products running on it are not immune to the malicious web sites, 
phishing emails, remote access to unsecured systems and numerous other 
malicious goodies floating around. Also remember that OSX incorporates many 
open source components whose code is publicly available for perusal. And if 
you're in the open source is safer crowd, then we also have plenty of closed 
source products with versions running on OSX which are frequent targets of bad 
guys.

Like it or not, there are good reasons why developers invest time and money to 
produce software to enhance the level of protection built into OSX. 3rd party 
security products for OSX such as Little Snitch, ClamXav and TrueCrypt all 
exist to fill important holes left open in the current version of OSX.

 There are really no virus threats within MacOS X.  There were a number of

Re: viphone and dropbox

2010-10-31 Thread Paul Erkens

Hi William and all,

Here's an observation concerning dropbox which I find alerting.

I am using it on a laptop with a u s b dongle, so that I have a 3g internet 
connection on my laptop. Thanks to te dongle, I can see the upload and 
download activity of my machine. Now when you start dropbox, it starts 
indexing and synchronizing all the files in your computer's dropbox folder 
to the website. After half a minute or so, if nothing changed, dropbox will 
tell you so. Nothing to synchronize.
However, I noticed that my upload bandwidth is still being entirely taken up 
by something. I closed down all other aps as far as possible but it remained 
uploading. Then, I closed dropbox. Dropbox was idle according to its system 
tray icon, but still something kept uploading stuff to who knows where. So I 
turned off dropbox, and the ghost upload immediately stopped. To verify that 
dropbox had been uploading stuff even though it told me that it had 
everything in synch, I restarted dropbox and indeed, after the initial phase 
of indexing and comparing, it told me all was in synch, yet the ghost upload 
had started again.


Does any of you have an idea what is going on here? Do you think that 
dropbox may be sending out stuff that we don't want to be sent anywhere? If 
all is in synch, what is dropbox uploading? I'm just wondering. I stopped 
using it right away, until I understand what has been going on. Do you 
experience the same, if at all you can reproduce this behavior? Very 
interested to know.

Hello all,
I have installed dropbox on my iphone and it seems perfect accessible and 
works great together wit windows and mac.


But, I have discovered that the files on the dropbox on the iphone, are 
not readable when the iphone has no internet-connection.
I have set the cache memory to the max of 1 GB but , the dropbox is 2 or 
more GB so, perhaps not all is available on the iphone because of that.


My question:
- can I set the cache-size of the iphone to the max of my dropbox and 
should this solve the problem?
Or , can I save all the things in my dropbox , offline on my iphone (with 
a external program)?


On the mac an windows, this is stored offline on the hd and synced from 
there.


Any hints are very welcome

Best regards,
William

Re: free antivirus for mac

2010-10-31 Thread Ruud Bemelmans
1. The internet isn't a safe place, so always be aware of possible 
threats, just don't get too paranoid about it (which is what people tend 
to do regardless). When filling in a form with personal info, like 
creditcard info I tend to check if the url starts with https:// rather 
than http://, the former is secure and seems to get used more an more now.
2. No Virus, spyware, malware or other security program is full-proof, 
because they update after the virus, spyware or malware has been 
identified leaving a time to get infected without detection. Aside from 
that they can't catch everything, in fact you'd need about a dozen 
virus, spyware or malware protection programs to catch all and that may 
still leave a little gap. This mostly applies to Windows as I'm quite 
new to Mac and haven't really worried about adding security yet, nor 
which program does the best job.
3. People are creative. Writing a virus on windows can be quite simple. 
On Mac this may be more difficult, but  where there's a will, there's a 
way.


Do I think mac is completely safe? As it's an annoying habit I have I'll 
answer that with another question: is anything?

2. The m box mini comes with Protools L E,  is Protools L E accessible using VO?

Hi.  In short, all three versions of pro tools, le, m powered, and hd have
the same level of accessibility.  I'd go for the avid m box if I were you.
From what I've read thus far, the mic preamps and other components are
improved when compared to the previous digi m box line.  Also, according to
avid, the drivers have been rewritten and are compatible with other major
daw applications.

Pt won't give you midi event list editing at the present time, but, a lot of
people are using it successfully with vo in terms of working with audio.

I'm sure others will chime in.

It would be a good idea to check out the podcast of the pro tools

connecting via bluetooth when in windows 7 using VMware.

2010-10-31 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hi.

Don't know if anyone can help.

I wanted to connect my braille display via bluetooth using VMware when in 
windows 7.

I first went and searched on google as to what to do, i.e. how to install 
bluetooth drivers.  This is what I did after listening to someone demonstrating 
it on youtube.  Once the drivers were successfully installed, it I thought 
would be straight forward.  However when I tried adding a device, the list box 
was empty even though in settings allow bluetooth devices was checked.  It's 
the wit com bluetooth software  which I stalled once I put the bootcamp CD into 
my CD drive when VMware was loaded.  Has anyone had this problem?  I can 
connect my braille display via bluetooth to the Mac when not in Fusion so I do 
not quite understand why it's not happening in VMware even though I've 
completed the steps.

Kawal.

Re: A Question for Musicians on the list

2010-10-31 Thread Ruud Bemelmans
I'm not very familiar with the MBox mini. What I could quickly find is 
that it has a mic and an instrument input and that's it as far as inputs 
go.  This is enough for personal recording, but if you want to record 
multiple instruments at the same time this may be a bit too limited.


The more important question to me would be, how are you going to hook up 
your instruments and are you happy with the sound you get that way. for 
example, your keyboard may have a USB port (most keyboards nowadays do), 
if not it may need a midi interface if you want to go for midi, but it 
can also be hooked up directly into the MBox using the amp output. All 
will work, but may give you advantages and disadvantages to what you 
want to do with it.
I don't know what kind of guitar you have, semi-acoustics and electrics 
you should be able to hook up directly. But if it's all acoustic you may 
have to look into various microphones to see which one works best and 
gives you the sound you want.  Same applies for banjo.


I recommend http://www.recordingreview.com/. it's a truly huge site with 
articles, reviews and much more. They probably have stuff on the MBox 
family as well on there. Killer Home Recording, which is a set of 
E-books and audio samples you can buy from that site is honestly the 
best and most comprehensive guide to recording I have EVER seen; from 
setting up to mixing to instrument specific resources.

your keyboard may have a USB port (most keyboards nowadays do), if not it may 
need a midi interface if you want to go for midi, but it can also be hooked up 
directly into the MBox using the amp output. All will work, but may give you 
advantages and disadvantages to what you want to do with it.
I don't know what kind of guitar you have, semi-acoustics and electrics you 
should be able to hook up directly. But if it's all acoustic you may have to 
look into various microphones to see which one works best and gives you the 
sound you want.  Same applies for banjo.

I recommend http://www.recordingreview.com/. it's a truly huge site with 
articles, reviews and much more. They probably have stuff on the MBox family as 
well on there. Killer Home Recording, which is a set of E-books and audio 
samples you can buy from that site is honestly the best and most comprehensive 
guide to recording I have EVER seen; from setting up to mixing to instrument 
specific resources.

Re: A Question for Musicians on the list

2010-10-31 Thread Ruud Bemelmans
There are multiple options for hooking up an electric. too many for me 
to mention here really.


Check: 
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/music_creation?mco=MTM3NzE2Mz


It does list some external sound cards with 1/4 inch jack inputs and 
other guitar-specific  interfaces that may suit your needs. Plus this 
way you know for sure they are compatible with a mac.

I'm not quite sure what do you mean. It says blank instead of the message lines 
or before them? because, sometimes there are blank lines between lines of text 
and vo will read them when arrowing because they are there and you are passing

Managing Music Library Outside iTunes and Using within iTunes

2010-10-31 Thread Kelly Ford
Hello,

 

I have a mixture of Mac and Windows computers in my house and am trying to
figure out the best way to handle my music library so iTunes knows about the
music but where I don't want to manage the library in iTunes.

 

I keep the music in a directory that is shared so multiple computers in my
house can access the files.  In Windows I just point WMP Media Center and my
Squeezebox server to the folder as a place to look and when I addnew
content, WMP Squeezebox and Windows Media Center automatically update.  I
can tell iTunes to add files from this directory but that seems to be a
one-time action.  If I add new content, I need to tell iTunes to look at the
directory again.  This is both tedious and time consuming.  Is there a
better approach?

 

The reason I'm using iTunes at all is because I want to be able to put some
of the music on my iPhone.  If there's a better way to do this outside of
iTunes, I'd consider that too.  I do not use the Mac in the house for music
that often.

 

Kelly

Re: vo saying blank

2010-10-31 Thread Tim Kilburn
 Hi,

I don't think that there would be a way of turning that off.  VO is reading 
whether a message has been replied to, forwarded, unread or something to that 
effect.  The blank refers to when a message has been read.

Later...

 i was wondering if there was a way to stop vo from saying blank blank while 
 arrowing through message. i did not see a say blank option in the utility

Financial software

2010-10-31 Thread Sarai Bucciarelli
Hi All:
I've decided to demo Checkbook Pro. So far, this app is very accessible, and 
very promising. You can create as many accounts as you want, with as much 
details in your entries as you want. The demo is only for the first 50 entries, 
then the cost is $27. I think it will be worth it. You can even manage credit 
card accounts.

Re: A Question for Musicians on the list

Thanks to all who've posted suggestions on hooking up my Strat.  I've got a 
Rolland MicroCube which has a line-out, but don't know if I can plug that into 
my line-in port on my Macbook without an impedance mis-match frying something, 
or without getting a purely mono signal; also, the ports are the wrong size, so 
I'd need to convert it to a smaller size for the Macbook.  I'm sure I'll figure 
it all out. :)

Re: connecting via bluetooth when in windows 7 using VMware.

2010-10-31 Thread Scott Granados
you have to connect your bluetooth device.

Take the vmplayer out of full screen mode and tab over until you hear connect 
Apple Bluetooth.  Remember when you do this the Bluetooth isn't available on 
the Mac side but your VM will have it.

Hope that helps.

 I wanted to connect my braille display via bluetooth using VMware when in

 I first went and searched on google as to what to do, i.e. how to install 
 bluetooth drivers.  This is what I did after listening to someone 
 demonstrating it on youtube.  Once the drivers were successfully installed, 
 it I thought would be straight forward.  However when I tried adding a 
 device, the list box was empty even though in settings allow bluetooth 
 devices was checked.  It's the wit com bluetooth software  which I stalled 
 once I put the bootcamp CD into my CD drive when VMware was loaded.  Has 
 anyone had this problem?  I can connect my braille display via bluetooth to 
 the Mac when not in Fusion so I do not quite understand why it's not 
 happening in VMware even though I've completed the steps.
