RE: Lion 10.72 is now available.

2011-10-12 Thread Missy Hoppe
Um.. I don't know how that song got attached to my previous post. Am very, very 
confused. If it went through, and you like
it, I guess that's OK, but I didn't attach anything deliberately. I wonder if 
my computer is possessed! I'm tripple checking
this message, and there definitely are not any attachments at the time I'm 
hitting send. If another one goes through, then I
guess I've got problems I need to investigate once I've had sleep. Anyway, 
sorry for any confusion; I'm definitely not trying
to cause any problems, and even without the song, I stand by my comments about 
lion.

I agree. I think the com.apple.doc.extra thing may have been resolved, but VO 
running at start-up seems to be hit or miss
now, and I certainly can't find any other improvements that make me want to 
officially switch to Lion. I also noticed that
Pianopub still isn't read accurately under lion while it reads great in snow 
leopard. In fact, the only thing I like better
in lion than snow leopard is the way skype contacts are read. I have no clue 
what the difference is; so far as I can tell,
I'm running the same version of skype under both operating systems, but it just 
reads slightly better under lion; none of
those favorites checkboxes and stuff. Apart from that, though, I still have 
absolutely no desire to run lion, and will
continue using Snow Leopard as long as it works and meets my needs.

Yeah, it still seems like they're sidestepping a lot of the issues that VO has, 
such as the freaky pitch changes with the
Nuance voices and the annoying "Safari busy" messages are still there too when 
doing easy tasks like reading forum posts in
Samnet and such. Speaking of Samnet, I know this is OT but, has anybody with 
Samnet accounts tried using the socializer with
Chrome? I'm thinking of giving Chrome another chance and I'm not too happy that 
I can't change my screen name with Safari.
And I say another chance because last time I used Chrome it was completely 
inaccessible. Since this is off topic, just write
me off list about it please and thanks.

Re: writing to NTFS drives under Lion?

2011-10-12 Thread John D. Lipsey
I installed a little program that somehow enabled it to work. I don't recall 
what this program is called, nor do I know where it resides on my mac.  If I 
did, I'd remove it and try reinstalling it.  It was discussed on this list 
though. One was MacFuse, and the other was something I don't remember, but I 
think that was the one I used.

Re: More issues with option click.

2011-10-12 Thread Austin Seraphin
Hey. I had the exact same problem. You have to disable VoiceOver when you do 
the actual click. So go to the button, route with Vo-Command-F5, then disable 
VoiceOver with Vo-f5. Wait a moment, then hold down the option key and click on 
the lower left corner of the trackpad. Then release and reload VoiceOver and 
hopefully it will have worked. A little harrowing.

Hello,
I suppose this is a really dumb question, but here it goes anyway.
When setting up the free @me account, do you type in the whole address, or just 
the stuff before the at sign? According to the prompts, this is a one-time 
shot. Furthermore, it appears is if there are a few examples, but VO doesn't

Hello Paul. Your statement about Microsoft word is not accurate. If you launch

How do I uninstall my current trial copy and buy from the Mac app store? Is it 
enough to move the application file to the trash? 
Is the version of amadeus pro the same version on their web site and the app 
store?

Thanks for any help.

Re: I killed my Iphone!

2011-10-12 Thread Andy Lane
Press and hold the home key and power key at the same time for about
10 seconds.  That will hard boot the phone.  I have had a nightmare
this evening, I killed mine too.  Had to re-install iTunes, find and
replace the iPhone updater file, restore about 300 times or it felt
that way and kept getting error 3014 which looks like they think I
tried to JB however I haven't ever even been tempted.  Got it sorted
in the end though.

accepting follower requests through the twitter web site. How is this done?

Hi peoples.
I've got a twitter follower request that I'm trying to accept. When I log in to 
the site, go to my profile, and then to the friend requests section, I see an 
item labeled as "Accept Clickable." I VO spaced on it but apparently it didn't 
go through. How do I accept the request? Do I route the mouse and then VO mouse 
click?
If accepting isn't possible, can you do it through one of the other twitter 
apps? If so, which one?
Thanks for all the help.

Hold off. As of a few minutes ago, only about half of the upgrades

Re: bookmarks

2011-10-12 Thread Chris Blouch
I think this was described in a previous email in the archive but the 
basic steps are to open the bookmarks page with commnad-option-b and 
then in the first table interact with that to choose which set of 
bookmarks you want to edit such as Bookmarks Bar, Bookmars Menu etc. I 
most often am adding or removing items in the bookmarks bar since those 
get keyboard shortcuts to activate (Command-1 for the first bar mark 
etc). Anyway, once you've done that then stop interacting with the table 
then navigate right a few times to a second table which will list all 
the bookmarks you have. Interact with that and then you can arrow up and 
down to inspect the bookmark rows. When you find one you don't want just 
hit delete and it's gone.

Re: pages documents

2011-10-12 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Matthiew,

Placeholder text is text that disappears as soon as you start typing over it. 
It's used to show the layout of a document.

When creating templates, I make all replaceable text, placeholder text, but I 
enter it in the format that should be used. So, for instance, in a template for 
an APA-style document, I give examples of the various formats for references, 
and the user can navigate into this text which is then highlighted, and copy it 
into another document where it can be referred to.

The creators of the included templates put fake Latin as placeholder text.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: program my husband wrote

2011-10-12 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi Ben. 
I may not have explained very well. I'm not needing a total line count for the 
whole file. What I meed to do is to know what print page, what braille page, 
and what line number a given mistake I find is located on if it were brailled 
on a braille printer. That way, I don't have to count the things. I don't know 
if you're a braille reader, so forgive me if I say something that you already 
know. 

When a transcriber produces a brf file bewh stands stands for braille ready 
file), the file is done like a print to file only it's a braille to file. If i 
don't have a program, then I have to roll the braille up until the print page 
number is on the display and then start counting the lines. That's why I don't 
need a line count for the entire file because the line numbers start over when 
a page break is encountered. 

Having said all that, does that still mean that Apple Script is what's needed? 

Regards,
Gigi

Re: pages documents

2011-10-12 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Gigi,

To create tables with different width columns, you have to use Numbers then 
select the cells you want to copy, press Cmd-C and paste the table into your 
Pages document. Pages with VO can only create equal-width columns.

I have to use Pages all the time as I'm a translator, and get MS Word documents 
to translate. The vast majority of the time, everything works great, it's just 
text boxes that cause trouble, because Pages puts them all at the end of the 
document.

Cheers,

Anne

Thanks Anne. This kind of blew me away because it never occurred to me to 
interact with the image. I'll do some more experimenting with this. 

I have been typing material into TextEdit which eventually would be converted 
into a table in Word by a reader. This works pretty good because I can get the 
reader to double check my stupid typing while he's at it. What I need are three 
fairly narrow columns and then one bigger. I couldn't figure out how to do 
that. Now that you showed me how to read these templates, is what I just 
described fairly easy to do in Pages without taking a long time to do it? 

I could use Word, but I was getting some errors from Jaws when typing in tables 
anyway, and editing when not in a table is easier for me.

Re: playing iphone video on a normal tv

2011-10-12 Thread Chris Blouch

While I haven't tried it, there is also an iPhone/iPad to VGA adapter:

http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC552ZM/B?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY

Main limitation with all of these it the apps have to support it. So 
video players like the ones that ship with the phone are usually fine 
but it's not video mirroring. SCART is pretty much a European analog 
video connector created in the 70s so direct support for it will 
probably be unlikely. You might be able to find a VGA to SCART adapter 
since SCART will handle RGB, but then it's not clear what resolution and 
scan rate.

Re: program my husband wrote

No idea if this works on BRF files, but you can display the line count in a 
file by running `wc -l ` in Terminal.
Example: wc -l ~/Documents/Report1.txt
As Ben has already mentioned, Apple Script could indeed be useful to either you 
or your husband in this case.  The WC command could even be ran from a script 
if you don't want to execute it manually.

Re: pages documents

2011-10-12 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Gigi,

The templates in Pages contain quite a lot of placeholder text that disappears 
as soon as you start typing over it. You can actually read it if you want to. 
The inportant thing to remember is never to use Quick Nav in Pages, and that 
you have to interact with the text, then use the arrow keys without the VO keys 
to find the placeholder text which is highlighted as soon as you move into it.

Just using the arrow keys is also the way to find tables and other elements 
that VoiceOver doesn't read. If you find a highlighted space, chances are it's 
a table. But you can find out easily enough by using the Services menu item, 
New TextEdit Window Containing Selection. I've created a shortcut for this 
since I use it all the time. You have to create the short cut in System 
Preferences.

Cheers,

Anne

No way. However, if all you want to do is count line numbers then you
should be able to do it through Apple script. If he is still up to
scratch on general programming concepts then Apple script shouldn't be
that hard to learn, so I wouldn't go installing windows just yet.

What language did he use? Python is a great cross-platform language

anything written for something as old as an Apple II would run on a

2011-10-12 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi guys. 
This is not a sales announcement or anything. My husband wrote this program for 
me which right now runs under Windows. He used to write custom programs for 
small businesses for both the Apple 2 and the PC. 

I got tired of counting lines and finding page numbers in brf files. As a 
proofreader, I have to do reports and turn that information into  transcribers. 

I'm not wild about installing Windows on my Mac just to run this program. 
Excuse my ignorance here, but if he were to rewrite the program like it was 
going to run on the old Apple 2, would it run under Lion? I know that may sound 
weird, but if he had a 2 E here he would be able to write programs for it, so I 
thought I would find out if that knowledge could be used to rewrite this 
program without a lot of trouble. If not, I can either put Windows on here or 
do this some other way.

Re: skype for mac and listening to voicemail

2011-10-12 Thread Mark BurningHawk Baxter
Find the name of the person who sent the voice mail; it will either be in the 
the table right below the tool bar or, if it's very old, in the history list 
table.  Select it and press Enter to exit the tables and go back to the main 
window.  Find the HTML content frame and interact with it.  VO right until you 
find the "play or stop voice mail button."  Click it.  That should start the 
playback.  How you delete them, I have no idea, and I shudder to think how many 
voice mails are stored somewhere that I don't need any more...

Re: playing iphone video on a normal tv

2011-10-12 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Hi,

You'd probably get better responses if you posted this on viPhone. To
answer your question though, if you have an iPhone 4 then you can get
an Apple adapter that lets you convert the 30 pin doc connector into
hdmi. For older devices you can get third party component out adapters
which should do what you want, but Apple are quite picky about what
will work and what doesn't. I have a belkin one for my 3GS which I've
only ever used once actually and it seemed to work well enough.
I'm not sure what the 3GS outputs at, but I'm guessing it wouldn't
look amazing on a large screen - my iPad 2 does upto 720P, compared to
DVD's which are only 480.

Cheers,
Ben.

playing iphone video on a normal tv

2011-10-12 Thread Paul Erkens
Dear list,
I would like to have a solution for the following. I often find video stuff 
that my partner would like to watch on tv. I download a video on my iphone, and 
I can play it there, but that is not very comfortable for her. Is there an easy 
way to plug something into your iphone, so that this signal can be received by 
our tv? What hardware do I need? Will it work with scart connections?

Mac not Accepting any DVD

2011-10-12 Thread Brianna Snyder
Hi, 

My friend has a Mac, and he wanted to reformat to get a clean install of Lion, 
however his Mac kept ejecting his DVD's. It even did this when he tried to 
restore to Snow Leopard. Does anyone have any thoughts on why this is 
happening, and why the Mac keeps ejecting the disks, and ways to fix it? 

THanks for your help, 
Brianna

skype for mac and listening to voicemail

2011-10-12 Thread Paul Erkens
Dear listers,
I just noticed that I have voicemail from skype. I turned it on, and I thought 
I would get a notification inside Skype if a new voicemail arrives. However, I 
now see that, on my spambox, I have a message from skype saying I received a 
new voicemail from a list member here. I looked into skype to find how to play 
voicemails, but I don't know how to do it. Closest I got was in the history 
list. At the end of September, I got this voicemail message, but trying to 
bring up a context menu on a history list item won't let me listen to the 
voicemail in question. Once I know from email that I have a message, how do you 
play it?
Paul.

Re: iclaude and winxp

2011-10-12 Thread Chris Blouch
My understanding of iCloud is it is a set of APIs and backend systems to 
store and sync media between different devices. I would have to assume 
that just for supporting this on iTunes for Windows Apple will have to 
port and allow developers on Windows to integrate it into their apps. 
Specific to your question, XP was discontinued last year after being 
released in August 2001. I doubt Apple or anybody is going to be putting 
effort into developing anything new for that platform. You can't even 
buy it except for the clearance stores that still have inventory. Having 
just looked for a copy of XP, like getting a copy of OSX 10.5, these 
places figure you must be desperate to want to buy a copy of XP and so 
they charge accordingly. While iTunes currently supports Windows XP, I 
wouldn't be surprised if that gets bumped off or has exceptions for 
iCloud down the road. It's a conundrum for app developers because up 
until October last year XP was still 50% of the internet web users but 
as of July of this year Win7 finally passed XP and currently sits at 42% 
while XP is at 36%. This according to w3schools stats:


http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_os.asp

Nice to see the Mac climbing and currently showing at 8.6%. Of course 
w3schools caters to a more techie crowd so stats might be skewed. 
Gartner shows Mac at 10.7% and the #3 Q2 shipper of machines (1.8M) 
after Dell (3.8M) and HP (5.4M). Apple grew market share 8.5% over the 
last 12 month period while Dell slipped 9.8% and HP 1.2%.


http://www.macrumors.com/2011/07/13/apple-soars-to-third-place-in-u-s-pc-market-with-10-7-share/

Curious what the Q3 numbers are.

But, perhaps there are or will be some third party solutions to solve this

Re: pages documents

2011-10-12 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Ann,
Very clear. So, to enter plain text with only blank lines between paragraphs, 
there is no downside to stick with text edit? Do you happen to know if, just 
like notepad does in windows, text edit prints the filename as header on each 
paper page when you print your document? Wordpad just prints the text in 
windows, but notepad also makes a heading of the filename the document came 
from, which can be undesirable. Does text edit do this, that you know of? Or 
can I safely print out a document I wrote without the filename being made into 
a page header in text edit?
Paul.

Re: pages documents

2011-10-12 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Paul,

A template can save you a lot of work. You can, for instance, have a template 
for personal letters and another for business letters. You can set up the top 
of the letter and the end, choose the appropriate font, create paragraph styles 
and have hotkeys associated with them.

You can also have templates for writing documents such as course papers for 
students.

Pages comes with quite a number of templates already defined, but they follow 
American styles which are not always appropriate elsewhere in the world.

Cheers,

Anne

Someone with more OS X experience than I may correct me on this, but an 
application isn't limited to having just one toolbar.  Consider using hotspots 
to jump to frequently-used toolbars in your favourite applications.

Hello Denise,

In Pages Preferences, under General, you can select the template with which you 
want Pages to open by default. This does not prevent you from getting to the 
Template Chooser as there is a menu item with a shortcut for this.

And if you create your own templates, you can simply open the template you wish 
to use and Pages will be launched.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: growl 1.3 accessibility

Re: Editing audio files

Hi Marco,
Amadeus is wonderful. Especially its batch converter is amazing. Not only can 
you convert from one file format to the other, with all your options for the 
target format in place such as tag info and even album art, but it also lets 
you perform file operations during the conversion. For example, say you have 16 
songs, and you would like to create a summary of each of them. Itunes does 
that, to allow you to preview them before buying. Amadeus can do that in a few 
seconds. You open the batch converter, in the first tab sheet you tell amadeus 
to which new file format you want to convert, and you set its options, and in 
the second tab, you can create a list of actions, that amadeus will carry out 
from top to bottom. The order in which the actions appear in this list can be 
important, depending on what you're doing. After pressing an add button next to 
the actions list, you can choose what you want to do. Say you want to cut off 
the first 30 seconds, because you want your summary file to begin there, and 
not at the song intro. Then you tell amadeus to move ahead 30 seconds, which is 
one minute into the time line of the song, and cut off everything from there to 
the end. This leaves a chunk of audio, from 30 seconds into the song, lasting 
half a minute. Now, the second action could be to perform a nice fade in and 
out at the beginning and end. It's not difficult, you just select what you want 
and read the manual. After you have your fades in place in the actions list, 
you could also normalize the chunk, and then pass it to the encoder. The 
possibilities are not endless but they are impressive. It can save you a lot of 
manual loading, editing, saving etc, if you let the batch converter do it for 
you.

One thing to be aware of when starting to play around with amadeus, is that you 
have 2 different cursors running along the time line of the sound file. One is 
the play head, just like you had with old tape recorders, and the other is the 
insertion point. So, stopping playback somewhere, will always require you to 
first get the insertion point over to the play head, because otherwise, you 
won't edit as you intend.
Hth,
Paul.

Re: shutting down with lion

2011-10-12 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Craig,
Yes all apps must be closed before you can shut down. I had a similar issue 
that was nagging me, and the solution was to use the voiceover application 
chooser, to find out what was running. I discovered that a program was still 
running, that I was not aware of. Moreover, this program had a window on screen 
asking me to type my password, because the program wanted to make changes. I 
don't know which changes, so every time it happens I hit cancel and I don't 
provide my password for it. But when I want to shut down, this window asking me 
to confirm changes to be made, is sometimes still open, and using the vo app 
chooser, you can find out if something similar on your machine is the case, 
close it, and shut down again.
Hth,
Paul.

Re: problem withinstalling braille display drivers in bootcamp

2011-10-12 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Iona,
Did you check to see if the driver location on disk that you are browsing to, 
does contain .sys and/or .cat files? I've had this problem as well, and it 
usually means that I need to go one more level down the folder tree, like into 
a folder x86, 32-bit or something similar.
Hth,
Paul.

Re: growl 1.3 accessibility

2011-10-12 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Darcy and Teresa,
Wow. Life can be so simple sometimes. It worked right away. Thanks Darcy. 
Teresa, would you mind explaining how you deal with invisible icons in the menu 
bar? Still very interested.
Paul.

iclaude and winxp

2011-10-12 Thread William Windels
Hello,
I was wondering if there is or there will be a way to use iclaude on a winxp 
computer?
I have red that Apple , same as Microsoft, only should support vista and win7 
from now.

But, perhaps there are or will be some third party solutions to solve this 
problem.

Thanx for your answers,

Best regards and a wonderful day from Belgium

William
