Checking Battery Status
My hard drive needed to be replaced and now I'm using the Battery Menu to check battery status. When I navigate to it, hours remaining is all over the place. When it was fully charged, battery remaining showed at a little over 4 hours which I thought was quite low. Then, at 94%, that number went over 5 hours. Then I checked at 86% and it was showing as a little over 3 hours remaining. Now at 85%, the number is back over 4 hours. Is this specific to my machine or is this a bug in the software itself?

Re: Checking Battery Status
the ammount of time remaining can change alot depending on wha tyou are doig at the time for example I can get 7 hours when i fire up th emac and am not doing anything but it settles down to a reasonable 5 hours after a littl ebit it is based on current power consumption rates and such screen brightness makes quite a difference as does disk and optical drive use and processor load screen set on bright listening to a cd or dd and in a skype call and my mattery will go down quickly an dthis will be indicated on the time left display for me it seems to be fairly accurate if you continue to do what you are already going with the machine at the time of your check On Dec 29, 2010, at 3:20 AM, Les Kriegler wrote: My hard drive needed to be replaced and now I'm using the Battery Menu to check battery status.

Re: Using new Mac Mini without a display connectedn
I run windows on it now, but I did have 2.6.4. I also now have my LG TV plugged into the hdmi port now, so I didn't really use the OSX partition for very long. It could be a recent thing, I plan to re-install OSX on that machine soo, so I'll do it without the tv pluged into it, and see what happens! Vaughn.

It might have been after the 10.6.5 update, but not positive. I'm wondering what might be different between your mini and mine. Can you tell me what Mini model you have, what keyboard/mouse you're using, what other peripherals you have connected, and what OS version you have? I've got the Mini 2.66 server version running 10.6.5 client, not server. I use the Apple USB extended keyboard, bluetooth magic trackpad, a wi-fi connection and a Samsung USB DVD multi drive.

Re: Checking Battery Status
When I started checking the battery, I was reviewing e-mail, I don't think I had been on the internet, so the variation in the report threw me.

Adium and Facebook chat
Hi guys. I'm having a slight problem with Adium and Facebook chat. When I sign on to msn, all works fine. However, if I am signed in to both, it will only show my msn contacts, and will not hsow any of my facebook ones. The only time it will show a facebook contact, is if they start a conversation with me first.

Re: apple TV and choppy speech
Hi, I connected a set of RCA cables from my TV to my home theater system as I couldn't get the optical out working. Only disadvantage to this is the TV must be on.

These audio element control tool bars are doubtless familiar to you if you've pressed VO+space on an mp3 file from say www.blindcooltech.com to play the file right off the servers. anyhow, I decided to take a closer look, so, I searched for a title I knew was there; I mean on the site. When I found the book I was looking for, I nnavigated to it and, guess what, next to the word sample, there was an audio element control tool bar. At this point, I would have to conclude that the people at audible have heard us and made some major change to their page so that we no longer need to use the mouse method to play samples. As a qualifier, I must hasten to add that I have the anti flash extension, (I forgot the proper name of it for the moment), and, when I looked at the settings I had made for it, I found that it was set to buffer and start playing the video content automatically. With this in mind, I have two questions. 1. For those of you who also have this flash extension, have y'all noticed this difference in audible.com? 2.

Re: very peculiar behavior change with audible.com
Okay, 1. Is Click to flash turned on? 2. In the settings, do you have it set so that the initial behavior is set to load but not play videos automatically? If so, you should notice a difference. ONe small detail. When you VO+right over an audio book, and you pass the book title, you might need to VO+left and right to get the Audio element control tool bar to show up.

Re: Interact with Messages Table
Hi Jim! Yes you can! But you might need to do a bit of customisation depending on what you like or need! Anyway open vo utility vo+f8 and interact with the categories table! Pick verbosity and stop interacting, then press vo+space on the general tab [ it might already be selected ] and scroll to the verbosity setting button and choose low! Now you will find a lot of things are no longer spoke to you including the item you wish to stop! But before you change the verbosity have a look at what is set in the high settings! When on the general scroll to the disclosure and expand it with vo+\ then there will be a table of everything and how its set, just interact and have a look! You can change what and how things are in there! Each item has the option to go from high to custom! So pick one that you think might solve your issue and change it to low! Then leave the window and see if it worked! If not go back and put that one back to high and change another! You might set it up in other ways to help you that I cannot think of! ::] Sorry for the long post but I hope this helps! Colin I'm far too bad for Heaven! The Devil is afraid I'll take his place!

Either a recent click to flash update has added support for converting audible samples to html 5 elements, or the folks at audible have switched to using a different flash player that the extension already knows how to convert. Either way, this is excellent news. Thanks for the tip. On Dec 28, 2010, at 1:28 AM, Ray Foret Jr wrote: Just now, when I went to Audible.com I experienced something that never before happened. I opened the page, and, suddenly, all the samples on the page started to play at the same time. When they all finally stopped, I took a look at the page and noticed numorous audio element control tool bars all over the page. I mean they were all over the place. These audio element control tool bars are doubtless familiar to you if you've pressed VO+space on an mp3 file from say www.blindcooltech.com to play the file right off the servers. anyhow, I decided to take a closer look, so, I searched for a title I knew was there; I mean on the site. When I found the book I was looking for, I nnavigated to it and, guess what, next to the word sample, there was an audio element control tool bar. At this point, I would have to conclude that the people at audible have heard us and made some major change to their page so that we no longer need to use the mouse method to play samples. As a qualifier, I must hasten to add that I have the anti flash extension, (I forgot the proper name of it for the moment), and, when I looked at the settings I had made for it, I found that it was set to buffer and start playing the video content automatically. With this in mind, I have two questions. 1. For those of you who also have this flash extension, have y'all noticed this difference in audible.com? 2. Now, for those of you without the extension, are you still needing to play samples using the mouse method? Thanks. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

question about compalation cds
All: I have the latest version of iTunes 10 on a MBP. When I transfer a cd with verious artists to my new Nano, and set it for album view, it will say something like Passion The Awakening Various artists. When I switch to artist view, then I can see all artists. However if I transfer the same album to my iPhone 4, it will say Passion Awakening Hillsong. Hillsong is an artist on that particular cd, but not the main artist. How can I fix this to show correctly on my phone? It shows correctly in iTunes, and on my Nano. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Click to Flash Now Working with Audible
Hi Teresa, I think I see your problem. You certainly don't want to add audible to the whitelist. The whitelist tells click to flash to allow the site to load it's original flash content instead of converting or blocking it. It kind of feels backwards, but by adding a site to the whitelist you are disabling click to flash and letting the site do it's own thing. Hope this helps.

Re: Click to Flash Now Working with Audible
Hmmm, I see your point. However, it wasn't working before I added Audible to the whitelist. I will try it again, as I believe I updated the extension after I modified the whitelist.

The whitelist tells click to flash to allow the site to load it's original flash content instead of converting or blocking it. It kind of feels backwards, but by adding a site to the whitelist you are disabling click to flash and letting the site do it's own thing. Hope this helps.

Re: Click to Flash Now Working with Audible
Ok, that did it. Thanks a million, Justin. I've got it set to buffer video so it won't start playing everything, and audible is not on the whitelist. It's pretty cool, because no way was I going to move the mouse in incremental pixels just to hear samples. :) Thanks, Teresa On Dec 29, 2010, at 5:40 PM, Justin Ekis wrote: Hi Teresa, I think I see your problem.

A dropbox issue.
Hi guys. I'm having a slight drop box issue on my MBP, which I've never had on my Mac Mini. I just downloaded and installed the latest version of dropbox, and all went well. Once I tried to open dropbox, almost nothing happened. When I say almost, I mean almost. Dropbox opened, but voiceover treated it as if there were no windows, and nothing I did worked. I tried to click the mouse, but voiceover said it couldn't bring the mouse into that area. I turned cursor tracking off, but it still didn't do anything. It was as if voiceover was focused on 2 things at once. Both the partly opened dropbox, and finder. The only thing I could do, was press enter. Once I pushed enter, dropbox would completely close altogether. I tried to go into the menu bar with this partially opened dropbox, and VO just treated it as if I was still in finder. Therefor, it showed me all the finder menus. Has anyone else had this issue? and most importantly, how do I fix it? Cheers, James. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com.

Re: A dropbox issue.
Hi, Yup, this has always happened to me. There is nothing you can do about it. If you want to make changes to dropbox, you need to access it from the dropbox icon in the status menu Ricardo Walker rwalker...@gmail.com Twitter, Skype, and AIM: rwalker296 Google Voice: 1-646-450-2197 On Dec 29, 2010, at 11:42 PM, James Malone wrote: Hi guys.

Making Music on a Mac
It always amazes me how Mac users have a family vibe. We feel empathy when we hear of the death of a fellow Mac user. Because of this, I first wanted to pass on the sad news that a long-time Mac user and professional musician has passed away. Peter Sleazy Christopherson helped found such legendary industrial bands as Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV, and Coil. He died in his sleep on November 24th. While reflecting and self-reflecting upon these reflections, I decided that this marked the time to finally get into making music on my beautiful iMac. I've started using Amadeus Pro at the excellent recommendation of list members. That does multi-track editing. Now I guess I need a sequencer. I don't even know exactly what I want. I created .mod files as a teen-ager, if anyone remembers those. I also toyed with some Windows sequencing before my installation crashed fabulously for the final time. I've heard about the new Garage Band, supposedly with improved accessibility. One guy told me he didn't find it so, but others seem to like it. I've also seen some other music programs in the Apple store and elsewhere. I want something I can easily learn, something with which I can start making trance music as soon as possible, and something that will give me room to grow, with a shallow learning curve. I also plan to do strange and wonderful things with instruments, including using sacred mathematical scales, as researched by Hans Cousto. http://akashaproject.de gives examples of this. I'd appreciate any recommendations anyone may have. No doubt others have asked similar questions, so I apologize in advance. - Austin PS: I have iLife 11 on my MacBook Air. I would rather have it on my iMac. I wonder if I could just transfer it from one machine to another? If not I guess I'd have to pay the $49 if I want to go that route. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
