Re: GPS Apps

2011-02-14 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Dear Geoff,

I in the past have tried to make a pedestrian route to the railway station and 
although I have put my home address in the App already, when it asks where you 
want to start from, Let's say my house and I select the railway station, I 
can't seem to get to the next button  and it keeps saying that I have to select 
where I'd like to go from even though my house adress is in there.

Send/Receipt requests in Mail

2011-02-14 Thread Michael Busboom
Greetings to all of you,

Here at work, there have been several misunderstandings about mail that was 
allegedly sent to me, but was ignored by me.  For my own protection, I need to 
be able to know when people read my mail, and I also need to be able to 
generate receipt requests.  this is critical, unfortunately.  If I can't get 
the problem resolved, my only alternative is to use either Thunderbird or 
Outlook running under Windows, which I will do, though I would much rather 
stick with Apple's Mail.

Can anyone give me definitive suggestions?

Thank you very much in advance,

Mike

Re: GPS Apps

2011-02-14 Thread Scott Howell
Hi Carolyn,

That is what attracted me to the Garmin app because it is a bit less 
complicated than Navigon. However, Garmin has a little work to do, but from 
what I have been reading, maybe they are not all that far off and there seems 
to be some interest in accessibility. I still find Navigon to be helpful 
despite the interface, but simplicity is important for sure.

 Hi:
 My opinion is that one has to jump through a lot of hoops to make Navigon 
 work.  Sure, if someone wants to simply enter an address, that part would be 
 obvious.  But, having to go to speed profile, or route profile, tell it if 
 you're riding a boat or motorcycle,  bike or walking, figure out where it 
 thinks you are and so forth all seem like a lot of steps..  
 
 In my humbled opinion, a good gps app would have you enter an address you're 
 leaving from, an address you wish to get to, and your mode of travel, and 
 then provide appropriate direction.  
 So, I guess I find Navigon not as simplified as your post implies and think 
 newcomers should be aware of that side as well.  So, scratch away, guess I 
 just like things simple.:)

iPod to iPhone

Hi folks,
Sorry for the crosspost, but I really need some help with this one.
I have an older 32gb iPod Classic that has a lot of my older music on it. I'd 
like to get that to transfer off that iPod and into my iTunes library so I can 
put it on my iPhone. Is there any way to do this? I'm kinda at a loss here. 
Transferring stuff from iPod to iTunes just isn't intuitive as far as I can 
tell.

Quite correct.  IF you ask me, this is getting just plain f.  IF the intention 
is to encourage us to visit the site for the story, why not just post the 
blasted link and be done with it for goodness sake.  I'm also growing very

Re: iPod to iPhone

2011-02-14 Thread Carolyn Haas
Hi Chris:
If you plug in your old iPod to iTunes, it will ask you if you want to sync it 
with the current library, and/or transfer what is on the iPod to your computer. 
 There is also a way to force it to do the transfer.  There's a key you can 
hold down when opening itunes to bring up the sync/transfeer dialog.  I 
unfortunately don't recall which key.  But, if you make sure you've checked 
manually manage music, you shouldn't have any trouble getting that music into 
the library.  If all else fails, you may use the import feature.

Re: Send/Receipt requests in Mail

2011-02-14 Thread Jim Barbour
Hello Michael,

Anyone using standard SMTP based mail (whether it be Mac Mail,
Thunderbird, Outlook, or something else) will not be able to track
when an email message they've sent out gets read, it just isn't
possible.

So, the question is, what are your workmates using to read their mail,
and would it benefit you to use what they're using?  What exactly
are the requirements that are driving this question?  If the
requirement truely is that you need to know when someone has read your
mail, or they someone needs to know when you've read their mail, then
I'd say it isn't possible unless you are all using some proprietary
email system that supports this (not sure which one that would be)

I'd be happy to help more with this, if you can provide more
information.

Jim

Ok I'm no expert but could you be able to set up a rule to put work emails into 
there own box!
That way you can keep track of all sent to you and you can get to them quicker!
Hopefully the work emails can have something to differential from others to 
achieve this!

Greetings Scott G,

Since you mentioned business location I thought I'd mention the $3.00 app named 
WhereTo? by future tap.  It has a list of categories and results which IMHO 
absolutely puts geo to shame and more over, the business can be seamlessly 
passed to either Navigon, TomTom or the built in maps app where it launches 
the preferred helper app and sets  the desired POI as the destination

I can't speak for Garmet or TomTom, but IMHO the POI location feature in 
Navigon is okay, but you can only get so many pois into a 1.6 GB app.

The URL for WhereTo? in the US app store is:

 Scott,
 
 I have not had sufficient experience to comment on Garmin. I find that of the

 I have seen the interface and liked it a lot and I would like to have someone 
 comment on POIs and if it speaks while in walking mode. My conversation 
 with Garmin was it did not, but I suspect the person I spoke to did not 
 understand what I was asking and was not willing to check it out. Of course 
 not having an actual route to walk, I suspect a lack of a simulation mode

 Robert,
 
 Navigon only receives map updates when the app is updated. If you want the 
 most current maps possible, the Garmin app is the way to go. I have not 
 tried Tom TOm, but I find the Garmin interface to be a bit better than 
 Navigon; however, both apps are quite good. I know the most recent version 
 of the Garmin software apparently includes improvements for accessibility, 
 but not sure what exactly those are. I believe either will meet your needs 
 and it may come down to which interface you prefer and if you can live with 
 the data use of Garmin with the understanding the tradeoff is in more 
 current map data. I again cannot speak about Tom TOm since I have never 
 used it. I think the reason you hear more about Navigon and TOm TOm is 
 simply that both have been around a bit longer on the iOS platform.

 Before even getting into the question I wish to ask on this post, let me 
 stop and acknowledge that I am indeed aware of the fact that the word 
 “best”, so often used, is just a four letter word incapable of nearly 
 anything. With that being said, I will be receiving my iPhone tomorrow and 
 wish to fill it full of delicious apps. I would like one of the apps to be 
 a GPS package.
 At this point, I have arrived at three possible 
 conclusions via friends, this list, and the Applevis web site. I am 
 considering the Garmin app, Navigon, and Tomtom, the latter mainly because 
 I hear it’s accessible and the primary rival to Navigon. What are the 
 benefits for each app? Why should I choose one over the other? I know that 
 the Garmin app doesn’t locally store map information and the maps are 
 constantly updated as well as traffic and weather information. How does 
 Navigon compete with this? Are there updates to Navigon’s maps? Does it 
 provide the same type of information? And what of Tomtom? Does it store 
 maps locally or are they accessed remotely like Garmin?
 Another reason I am undecided is that Garmin looks the most impressive, 
 yet it is only ever Tomtom and Navigon about which I hear—so is there some 
 drawback to Garmin which prevents it from competing on the same level? I 
 read on the Applevis web site that Garmin is very accessible, as well as 
 Navigon. Any information is welcome—if I have to have multiple solutions, 
 I guess 

Knox | Simply secure file encryption

2011-02-14 Thread Dane Trethowan

Hi!

Glad to say this software has come a long way since I first purchased 
it, back then you could make it accessible but one had to have a little 
knowledge of the Terminal and command lines to do that.


Now with the latest updated version Knox is as accessible as anyone 
could ever want it to be with Voiceover on your Mac.


If you want to secure everything from drives to files then Knox is the 
software with which to do it.

RE: Installing Windows XP with Bootcamp.

2011-02-14 Thread Cameron
Hi.  I've done an unattended install of win xp pro 32 bit using bootcamp
multiple times on multiple macs over the past few years with no trouble.
Like you though, the driver cd burn button does nothing.

Use your Mac OS X disc instead once you've installed windows.  There is a
noted issue with bootcamp on the OS X 10.6.4 and up discs.  It's best to
install bootcamp off of an OS X 10.6.3 disc according to Apple.

You can use a USB headset or USB speakers as an audio driver so you can run
narrator until you get the drivers installed.

Re: GPS Apps

2011-02-14 Thread Esther
Hi Neil and Others,

Where To? by FutureTap is certainly worth the $0.99 (U.S.) Valentine's Day sale 
price.  It was the first of the helper applications for GPS points of interest 
(in the same class as the free AroundMe app by Tweaker Soft) to add the 
capability to send results to GPS apps such as Navigon and TomTom, as well as 
to the default Maps app.  AroundMe only added this feature later.  As Geoff 
described, the primary difference between Where To? and AroundMe is the more 
detailed divisions of categories and sub-categories for Where To?  This can 
make it easier to locate specific points of interest more quickly -- for 
example, Geoff gave the example of restaurant food sub-categories.  Also, the 
feature access can be set up differently.  Here's an example of where I'd use 
Where To? in preference to AroundMe (and where Navigon's POIs falls short).  
For my location, Navigon doesn't bring up any bus stops among the public 
transport POIs, although these are easily found in the Maps app.  In AroundMe, 
I have to type in bus stops into the search field, and I'll be presented with 
a list of matches ordered roughly (but not exactly) by distance.  In Where To?  
if I first double tap on Travel and Transportation and then double tap on 
Public Transport, and the bus stops will be exactly ordered by distance.  
Moreover, I can double tap the next menu or previous menu buttons and be 
taken to the next or previous menu in the list, and the page for each stop has 
a link to the web home page that shows the next bus scheduled arrival time.  
This is not available through AroundMe.   The point here is merely to show that 
the Where To? app can provide information that is different from, or 
complementary to what you get from AroundMe.  

Where To? is also an international app, and with both AroundMe and Where To? it 
is possible to search for points of interest in different locations.  For 
example, after selecting search categories, double tap the Search button in 
the top right corner of the screen, and then enter either the postal code or 
the name of the city into the search field and double tap the Search button 
at the bottom right of the virtual keyboard.  (If you use a Bluetooth keyboard, 
just press the Enter key to start the search.)  Your search results will come 
up for the postal code or address you entered in the search field.  (Note that 
this works for zip codes in the U.S. and postal codes in the U.K., but not for 
lengthy French postal codes -- you have to type in a more complete address.)  
To return the search to your present location, double tap the Start Tracking 
button in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Since Neil is in the U.K., I'll just mention that a check of a U.K. location 
brought up reasonable search results (though I can't verify how up to date the 
entries are, if there are recent changes.)  This app has been used by U.K. 
members on other lists.  I'll also mention that I've never understood why the 
Navigon MobileNavigator app for Great Britain requires a separate in-app 
purchase for searches by postal code (or the use of a dedicated third party app 
for this), when it's simple to enter the postal code in AroundMe or Where To? 
and then send the address location to Navigon.

As Geoff noted, the URL in the App Store for Where To? is:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/where-to-discover-your-next/id314785156?mt=8

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned on list before, so I thought I'd 
pass on the good word.  Telephone is a free VoIP application available in 
the Mac App Store.  It is intended for people who have existing Internet 
phone services through a company such as BroadVoice.
It provides a completely accessible softphone, with some fairly advanced 
features which I've admittedly not used very much.  Account set up is easy 
with the right information from your phone provider.  In searching the 
program I haven't yet found an unlabeled button.  Dialing works quite well, 
and there are keyboard shortcuts to handle most functions.
I was pleasantly surprised to find a program both this accessible and free. 
I don't know how many people might be in the market for a VOIP softphone, 
but this one certainly seems capable.

All the best,
Zack.

Re: GPS Apps

2011-02-14 Thread Brett Campbell
Hi everyone,

I just purchased Where to?  My first concern is there is a message selling 3D 
that gets in the way.  I can't find a way to dismiss it.  The message says the 
window will be skipped after purchasing.  If I purchase the 3D just to get rid 
of the message, do you think the 3D will mess with VoiceOver?
I also have a question about the Bus stops.  I'm able to find the stops just 
fine, but I'm not able to get additional information on bus times.  When I tap 
on the more information button, I seem to just get the stop labeled as a map 
pin.  I don't appear to get more information by double tapping the map pin.  
I'm not seeing the Next Transport option Esther mentioned.  I'm also not seeing 
the next or previous menu mentioned.  I'm wondering if the 3D sales pitch is 
getting in the way.  I usually do quite well at figuring apps out, but I'm a 
little stumped here.

 Hi Neil and Others,
 
 Where To? by FutureTap is certainly worth the $0.99 (U.S.) Valentine's Day 
 sale price.  It was the first of the helper applications for GPS points of 
 interest (in the same class as the free AroundMe app by Tweaker Soft) to add 
 the capability to send results to GPS apps such as Navigon and TomTom, as 
 well as to the default Maps app.  AroundMe only added this feature later.  As 
 Geoff described, the primary difference between Where To? and AroundMe is the 
 more detailed divisions of categories and sub-categories for Where To?  This 
 can make it easier to locate specific points of interest more quickly -- for 
 example, Geoff gave the example of restaurant food sub-categories.  Also, the 
 feature access can be set up differently.  Here's an example of where I'd use 
 Where To? in preference to AroundMe (and where Navigon's POIs falls short).  
 For my location, Navigon doesn't bring up any bus stops among the public 
 transport POIs, although these are easily found in the Maps app.  In 
 AroundMe, I have to type in bus stops into the search field, and I'll be 
 presented with a list of matches ordered roughly (but not exactly) by 
 distance.  In Where To?  if I first double tap on Travel and Transportation 
 and then double tap on Public Transport, and the bus stops will be exactly 
 ordered by distance.  Moreover, I can double tap the next menu or previous 
 menu buttons and be taken to the next or previous menu in the list, and the 
 page for each stop has a link to the web home page that shows the next bus 
 scheduled arrival time.  This is not available through AroundMe.   The point 
 here is merely to show that the Where To? app can provide information that is 
 different from, or complementary to what you get from AroundMe.  
 
 Where To? is also an international app, and with both AroundMe and Where To? 
 it is possible to search for points of interest in different locations.  For 
 example, after selecting search categories, double tap the Search button in 
 the top right corner of the screen, and then enter either the postal code or 
 the name of the city into the search field and double tap the Search button 
 at the bottom right of the virtual keyboard.  (If you use a Bluetooth 
 keyboard, just press the Enter key to start the search.)  Your search 
 results will come up for the postal code or address you entered in the search 
 field.  (Note that this works for zip codes in the U.S. and postal codes in 
 the U.K., but not for lengthy French postal codes -- you have to type in a 
 more complete address.)  To return the search to your present location, 
 double tap the Start Tracking button in the bottom left corner of the 
 screen.
 
 Since Neil is in the U.K., I'll just mention that a check of a U.K. location 
 brought up reasonable search results (though I can't verify how up to date 
 the entries are, if there are recent changes.)  This app has been used by 
 U.K. members on other lists.  I'll also mention that I've never understood 
 why the Navigon MobileNavigator app for Great Britain requires a separate 
 in-app purchase for searches by postal code (or the use of a dedicated third 
 party app for this), when it's simple to enter the postal code in AroundMe or 
 Where To? and then send the address location to Navigon.
 
 As Geoff noted, the URL in the App Store for Where To? is:
 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/where-to-discover-your-next/id314785156?mt=8
 
 HTH.  Cheers,
 
 Esther

2011-02-14 Thread Esther
Hi Brett,

The 3D is a brand-new feature, and I'm not sure that it's accessible with 
VoiceOver.  My understanding is that it uses the camera and superposes the 
letters for the search results on the field, with larger letters for closer 
matches.  I think it's a visual only feature -- the idea is that if you hold 
your iPhone with camera up in different directions, you'll see the locations of 
nearby POI matches in the direction that they lie, with the matches that are 
closer in bigger fonts.  So, if you're trying to find out which direction to 
walk in, you'd view the words for the match of a particular POI in that 
direction as you move your iPhone around, and you can tap on the entry to find 
more information.  I don't think this is usable with VoiceOver if you don't 
have vision.  You have to remember that I'm using Where To? on an iPod Touch or 
iPad -- without a camera.  So these options don't come up for me.  Also, 
whether you get links to public transportation web pages may depend on your 
location. This is just how it works for me.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

I'm afraid I don't know what NetTalk is, but my gut instinct says no, that's 
not what Telephone is designed for.  It's intended for use with a company which 
gives you a SIP account, of which there are many.  THe company runs the server 
which Telephone connects to.

MobileMe web interface not accesible. Is it just me?

2011-02-14 Thread Matthew Campbell
Hello listers.
Seems like all I do lately is pick on mobile me isn't it?
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone else is having issues with the mobile me web 
interface?
The biggest problem I'm having is that none of the clickable elements activate 
if I use VO to activate them either with pressing them or using mouse commands 
to click them. This is extremely crippling as I can't even change my password.
Thanks for any feedback.

 Perhaps those who believe  Navigon's interface to be overly abstruse might
 consider posting which tasks they would like to perform and what steps they
 tried rather than a general statement lacking specifics that might scare off
 people who might otherwise find this app very useful.
 
 Many of us who have Navigon are scratching our heads since it does not take
 a technical wizard to ascertain, for example  that from the main screen one
 can locate an address by selecting enter an address, or select: search
 for a POI to start a business search.  VO identifies both of these as
 buttons.
 
 Best regards.

 hoops to jump through, just to get directions somewhere.  Or, perhaps I'm
 just too much of a homebody to make it worth my while to work with.  I have
 a secret notion that only wizards and geniuses can really get anywhere using
 it.:)

 I'm not very successful by giving Jaws key commands. To be honnest it

Re: Creating Apple Scripts, wasWord Count

Hello,

A sighted person was helping me with a computer task on the mac, and apparently 
changed a setting for my inbox in mail.

My messages are showing up in reverse cronological order, old messages first. 

How would I change this to the original view?

Thanks for any help,

Re: mail sorting issue

2011-02-14 Thread Antonio M. Guimaraes Jr.
The VO-Shift-backslash command opens up some sort of VoiceOver help, and does 
not change the sorting of messages.

I execute this command from the date received columt from the message grid 
view, as well as the field once the message is opened with command o and get 
the same results.
