Help with Night Owl Twitter Client

2011-10-22 Thread Brianna Snyder
Hi, 

I'm having two problems with this client that's stopping it from becoming my 
main Twitter client and replacing Syrinx. Firstly, even though I went into 
general prefs and unchecked automatically scroll to the top of the list, 
whenever I'm in another app, like Adium and I get a new tweet, when I go back 
to Yoru, I have to hit down arrow before I can read the new tweets. Unchecking 
the option to automatically scroll to top seemed to help, but then it stopped 
working. 
Second, even though conversation view was working right earlier, now when I 
press command 3, it reads me who the tweet was from, and maybe a bit of the 
tweet itself, and then it makes a noise at me, stopping VoiceOver from reading. 
I've quit and relaunched the app, as well as VoiceOver, but it hasn't helped. 
Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can do to change this behavior? I've 
looked through both VoiceOver and Yoru preferences, and I can't find anything. 
Therefore, any suggestions would be welcome. 

Thanks, 
Brianna

Direct links to many BBC streams: was; Re: bbc iplayer

2011-10-22 Thread Ray Foret Jr
IF you click on the "listen Live" link, you  should hear audio in about 
30 seconds or less.  The "listen" link is just to the right of each station's 
area.  IF you are attempting to listen to five livve extra, you will notice 
that they often do not have events playing or else sometimes do not have the 
license to stream content.  What I will now do to make it a little easyer for 
you is to provide you the direct links to each station I have in my book marks. 
 Just click on any of these and you should be off and running quickly.

Radio 1 live stream:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_radio_one

Radio 1 Extra live stream:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/bbc_1xtra

Radio 2 live stream:

Radio 6 Music live stream:

Talksports live Stream:

Note.

For most BBC dramas, you want the Radio 4 Extra stream.

If it's Rugby you want to listen to, be advised that the BBC does not have the 
license to broadcast the Rugby world cup games; but, Talksports does.

HTH.

Re: Question about Safari and Snow Leopard

2011-10-22 Thread Sarai Bucciarelli
Hi:
Have you tried using DOM VS group mode? Some sites work best in the opposite 
setting. IE if you are on DOM, switch to group. I'd also suggest downloading 
the latest nightly build of webkit. Sometimes webkit handles sites better than 
Safari.

Re: downloading from the BARD site

2011-10-22 Thread Tom Frank
Hi there,
I learned by my mistakes. Just be patient. For a large book, it might take a 
few minutes to expand, but, it will be done automatically.

You will first notice  your book in the download folder as a zip file. Go have 
a cup of tea or something. Come back and it will be an uncompressed DAISY book 
folder. Copy the file.  Go to the finder, find your drive's icon, open it, and 
paste in the book. I hit escape first just to make sure I don't have any other 
files selected in the drive's folder.
If you interact with the progress alert, you can listen to the number of books 
remaining to be pasted. Remember, Daisy books actually are a number of files 
kept in a common folder.

Question about Safari and Snow Leopard

2011-10-22 Thread Shannon Dyer
Hi, all.

I'm still running Snow Leopard, and I've been having trouble with Safari. I've 
never been as comfortable with it as I was with Internet Explorer, but, for 
most things, I've managed to make it work.

However, I'm having difficulty navigating a large site. I need to find an edit 
box where I can post a comment, and then, the button beneath the box to 
actually post the comment to the site.

It doesn't matter what I set the web router to. No matter what I do, it refuses 
to find the box. I can find the "post comment" button with the item chooser, 
but, once I find it, I just sort of know it exists on the page without knowing 
where.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been using Internet Explorer on the 
Windows side of my Mac to do this, because fighting with Safari is proving too 
time-consuming. However, I would like a solution, if there is one.

Thanks so much for any advice anyone can offer.

Shannon

Before, when I pressed entre on a message I would enter the message window
and I could do a two finger down swipe on my track pad or cursor down to
read the message.  Now I get a header field at the top, followed by text,
and I have to interact with the text field.  I have tried resetting the
shift-command h header rotor,but the only settings are all headers and
default headers.  

 

Can someone suggest what setting I may have changed?  Thanks.

That is incorrect. VoiceOver does not read the file itself that is done by an 
application. You just have to find an application that will read the file 
format.

Re: an easy but time consuming fix for those having Lion issues

2011-10-22 Thread Matthew Campbell
Hi.
If you go in to the go menu in the finder, I heard that if you hold down the 
option key while scrolling through, the library option will show up. 
Alternatively, there are other ways to do it. I'd run a google search and find 
some. Once you find one that works for you, create an alias so you'll be able 
to go back there again.

Should I upgrade to Fusion 4?

2011-10-22 Thread Eric Brinkman
Hi listers,

I am running a MacBook Air with 4 gigs of ram and a 2.13 GHZ core2 Duo
under Lion.  I currently use Fusion 3 with Windows 7 and Window-Eyes
7.5.  I remember reading a boatload of negative comments about Fusion
4.  Are there any positive aspects of Fusion 4 that might make it
worth upgrading or should I stick with Fusion 3?

Thanks in advance.

Eric

Re: Lion Mail question

2011-10-22 Thread bill holton
Are you using the standard Lion layout or have you gone back to the previous 
version.  In the newer layout I can't figure out how to go down by files.  A 
single field seems to include all the info, there doesn't seem to be a way to 
change to table or list view to easily go down the subject fields.  Wondering 
if there is any way to rearrange these so the subject reads first.  Thanks.

Re: A Quick Tip for Those Now Using Control-Tab in Lion Mail 7.2

Just a note: the VO-J key combo takes you straight into a single message area, 
whereas control-tab, if you're viewing conversations, takes you to the 
conversation level.

Hi,

Is anybody still running fusion version 3 under Lion with win xp?  If so, is it 
ok?  I'm asking because I'm still running snow leopard, but am wanting to 
upgrade to lion finally, but only if I can still do the fusion 3 with win xp 
because I need that for school.  I have a lion disk my husband made, so I can 
install lion that way.

Thanks,

I forgot to say that after you put in the dots 4 5 6 ing sign, then you quickly 
put in the st sign for the slash or the for sign for the equals. You have to do 
it quickly or the translator will grab the ing sign the others and misinterpret 
them. 
If you use the second option of turning on uncontracted  braille and dots 7 and 
8, then you do that in the VoiceOver utility under Braille. This gives you

Re: Terminal problem: speech getting interrupted when new text appears

2011-10-22 Thread Jon Cohn
The only solution I have heard that really works is to use a terminal window 
within emacsspeak.  I have not tried this, but I have terminal fairly under 
control.

The first thing to know is that by default terminal continually keeps the full 
scroll back by default, so after 20,000 or so lines of text it gets unbearably 
slow.  You can reduce the scrollback, in the preferences or you can hit 
command-k before doing a significant command and this will clear the scrollback 
history and then the entire command will be in the scroll buffer.  One thing I 
will often do for local files is to pipe the output to 
open -a textedit -f 
This will push the output into a textedit window.  

If you search the archives I have a few other suggestions wrt terminal and 
being friendly.

Re: an easy but time consuming fix for those having Lion issues

Hi.
A lot of things are saved up on iCloud if you are using it. If not, you can 
copy a lot of other items from you're backup drive. I'm not to sure about mail 
rules though as I don't employ any at this time.

Hi.
What he should have done there was went in to system prefs and selected the 
bootable flash drive as the startup disk instead of trying to deal with that 
not so good boot manager.

Terminal problem: speech getting interrupted when new text appears

2011-10-22 Thread Johanna Herranen
Hello,
I am new to this list -- actually I am also a complete newbie with Mac. I got 
my very first Macbook Pro just couple days ago. So far
I'm very impressed and happy with it.However, I seem to have a small issue with 
the Terminal application: I am using ssh to connect
to another machine from Terminal. There I'm using a program that puts lots of 
text on the screen. Some times then I see that
VoiceOver doesn't speak everything, because every time there is a new event on 
the screen, the speech gets interrupted and only the
newest text is spoken. I have been going through VoiceOver settings trying to 
find a way to fix it, but can't find anything. Also, I
love Alex, but am finding it a bit slow some times. Is there somewhere a 
setting to tell Alex to stop breathing and pausing between
words? Or could someone recommend some other less human-like voice to use when 
needed?

Any help is much appreciated.

Johanna

Searching through digest mail

2011-10-22 Thread Graham Roby
Hi, 

Until yesterday when I received messages as a digest, I could quickly flick 
from topic to topic by typing topic in the search field then hitting vo-g to go 
to the next occurrence of the word. 
The word topic now appears to have been removed from the start of each subject 
under discussion. 
Can anyone suggest an equally or even easier way of moving from topic to topic 
without having to actually type the subject being discussed each time? 

Kind regards

Graham

A Quick Tip for Those Now Using Control-Tab in Lion Mail 7.2

2011-10-22 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

As has been noted in previous messages, it is now necessary to add the
[Control] key to the [Tab] key in order to quickly jump to the Message
Content Area when Lion 7.2 Mail is set to its default 3-column view.  

Let's hope that Apple addresses this so that we can, once again, return to
only needing to press the [Tab] key to accomplish this jump.  

For those of us using an Apple keyboard that only has one [Control] key,
said key being on the same side of the keyboard as the [Tab] key, this new
key combination can quickly become uncomfortable.

I am delighted to report that, for the time being at least, you can use the
[Command]+[Option] keys as modifiers to the [Tab] in order to quickly jump
to the Message Content Area; this means that you can press the
[Command]+[Option] keys on the right side of the Spacebar while tapping the
[Tab] key, iliminating the need to press the [Control] key altogether. 

Mark
PS
I wonder how many times I can squeeze the word key in to one paragraph?
(Smile).
