Re: iPad
Hello, I might to also assume that you are a brand-new iOS user if so there is a gentleman on Apple this VIS Apple this.com who works primarily with visually impaired and has done many podcasts dealing with iOS software and how voiceover works. His name is David Woodbridge. If you go through there podcasts section, you will find your share of podcasts relating to Iowa software done by David Woodbridge also you can find his podcasts in iTunes. I hope this helps.

Re: Sirus XM app iPod iPad
Matt please ask a question? Since when did Sirius XM app become accessible at thing has always been a piece of junk. I had a friend who told me that he could get around it a little easier, however it still was not quality that it should've been. I dump Sirius XM primarily because their app was so crappy.

When you use this shortcut, or equivalently, when you navigate to the File menu after going to the Finder menu bar with VO-M or COntrol-F2, your new folder gets created in your current directory. So if I've navigated to my home directory with Command-Shift-H, using that shortcut will create a new folder under the top level of my user account, while if I use Command-Shift-O to navigate to my Documents folder before issuing that shortcut, the new folder will be created in my Documents folder. (I can also navigate with my arrow keys in Finder to subfolders if I want to create the new folder somewhere else.) If you want to place a folder in the Finder sidebar, first create it in the location that you want, then select it and use the Command-T shorcut for "Add to Sidebar". You can also find this option under the "File" menu as "Add to Sidebar" if you don't remember the shortcut. To remove an item from the sidebar, when you're focused on that item bring up the Contextual menu with VO-SHift-M, and select the "Remove from Sidebar" option. Smart folders are folders whose contents are specified by rules rather than by selecting specific items. They can also be the saved results of specific searches that you do in Finder.

Re: Protecting a file with a password
I don't think you can do this natively in OS X. You can use disk Utility to create an encrypted disk image of a folder. FileVault encrypts the entire system disk. You could lock a file or folder or change it's permissions to grant no access, but I am not aware of a way to place a password on a file or folder. However, I surely could be wrong and there may be third party solutions for this. Take Care John D.

hi all, i'm frustrating myself no end here. i relied on open office under sl to run my whole business. i have spreadsheets up the ass going back years tracking clients, resellers, billing, expenses, the works. i was relying on it to fill in reports with complex tables that text edit wouldn't handle nicely. When i jumped from sl to ml, open office was no longer compatible. So, i updated open office and now accessibility is completely pooched. Fortunately i have iWork here. it will do my spreadsheets, but it runs slow as molasses and i have to relearn a lot of shortcut keys. At least it sort'a works. pages won't read my complex monthly report document. it completely ignores the entire table that has the guts of the report. What am i to do? i'll buy other tools if they are reliable and compatible. That's no problem. Any recommendations?

Re: Finally!: An Audio Action/Adventure Game on the Mac!; BlindSide

Problems with Airserver
Hi, Just wondering if others are using Airserver? If so, how have your experiences been? Mine have been spotty at best. When I try to Airplay from my iPhone to my iMac, with most apps audio may not start at all, is choppy, or stops altogether. MlB At Bat doesn't work at all, the iMac pops up an airserver window with a URl and an unknown error code. I've played with Airserver settings, audio buffers, etc, but to no avail. The interesting thing is, this iMac is running Bootcamp. if I boot into Windows, I can run Shareport4w, a free Airplay utility, which works perfectly. So, same iMac, same network. Shareport4w works flawelessly in Windows, while Airserver under Mountain Lion gives me nothing but grief. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: Am I crazy or is there no longer a way to reply only to the sender of a message in mail?
I just tried it and the context menu came up with 5 items; one item was "New email" and the others were things like copy, Add to VIP, etc. I don't think any of these options will enable replying to the original thread. I could be wrong though. If so, then we may need to settle for copying the original address and then do a normal reply and paste in.

Re: Create folders in Finder
I've run into a similar problem while using column view; it is probably same behavior that is being told about list view. Where it is most problematic for me is if I have previously expanded a folder like Documents and then left arrow to come out of that, it is still selected and is thus the folder that a file will be copied into. I need to play with this further to find a consistent way to select the parent folder instead.

When you use this shortcut, or equivalently, when you navigate to the File menu after going to the Finder menu bar with VO-M or COntrol-F2, your new folder gets created in your current directory. So if I've navigated to my home directory with Command-Shift-H, using that shortcut will create a new folder under the top level of my user account, while if I use Command-Shift-O to navigate to my Documents folder before issuing that shortcut, the new folder will be created in my Documents folder. (I can also navigate with my arrow keys in Finder to subfolders if I want to create the new folder somewhere else.) If you want to place a folder in the Finder sidebar, first create it in the location that you want, then select it and use the Command-T shorcut for "Add to Sidebar". You can also find this option under the "File" menu as "Add to Sidebar" if you don't remember the shortcut. To remove an item from the sidebar, when you're focused on that item bring up the Contextual menu with VO-SHift-M, and select the "Remove from Sidebar" option. Smart folders are folders whose contents are specified by rules rather than by selecting specific items. They can also be the saved results of specific searches that you do in Finder.

Re: menu tab for facebook?
Hey guys, I started using it about a month ago when the Facebook site decided to start saying combo box on any text field, and you couldn't hear what you were typing. This app isn't a perfect solution but at least you can use a lot of it with VO. Regarding the question of how to search for friends, here is what I do, and it doesn't always work, sometimes you need to click on things more than once to get them to load. From your home page, you have to click on Friends than use the rotor and go to form controls and you will see the search box, type in your friends name, then use the links to find it and click on it. That has gotten me to friends pages to write on their wall. Good luck On Sep 23, 10:48 pm, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi folks. > > I downloaded this a little while ago, but just now started using it.

Hi, Download Xcode from the app store. It's a complete IDE for the Mac, which is completely free. And, based on preliminary usage, it works well with VoiceOver.

Re: iPad
Try the accessible-ios google group. I can answer your question, though: go to settings, general, accessibility, Voiceover, and turn it on. From there, use the list I emntioned and/or find some primers on applevis.com that might help. Googling specific questions will also help as there are many tutorials and articles out there, plus the official Apple documentation for voiceover.

Drop Box Issue
Hello, I am having some trouble with DropBox. More specifically, I have 2 team members that are having an issue with their DropBox folders do not update when I add something to a shared folder. The files will be visible if the go to the DropBox website and log into their account, but if they open their DropBox on their computer the file or files will not be there. I have tried to unlink the accounts and then relink them but still the problem persists. I should mention that both of these team members are on Windows computers but that should not make a difference. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try to fix this?

Re: Take Control eBooks' September Sale
I had little bit of trouble with this website in safari but found that if I changed settings in voiceover utility > web, I could navigate the table. But I'm having trouble telling whether or not my discount is being applied. Next to the filled-in coupon it says "enter coupon" button. I didn't know whether this was if yu wanted to enter another coupon or to confirm that one but whether I hit that button or not, the prices stayed the same. So I'm sitting here on the Paypal website trying to decide whether to put this through or not. I do a lot of shopping online so hopefully I'm not just failing to look closely enough. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.

accessible RAM freeing app for OS X
Hi all. I'm wondering if any of you have found an app either free or paid, on the Mac App Store or not, that will allow you to free up memory? I've always used either freeRAM under windows or Maxmem under windows, but I'd like an app to do this under OS X. Of course, this app needs to work reasonably well with VoiceOver.

Re: DVD Player Again
Hi, The entire Trackpad is also the button. Simply press firmly on the Trackpad and you'll feel a kind of click as it goes down and it click again as it comes back up. On older Mac laptops and most PCs there was a separate button(s) for mouse actions, the Mac has made it a part of the actual Trackpad for quite a while now. Many VO users don't realize it as we don't really need to press down on the Trackpad for mouse actions, we just tap or swipe for our needs. HTH. Later...

Re: Trouble Interacting with the HTML Area in Messages
I experienced this inability to interact also. Haven't used it much lately but think I have resolved the issue. I had set up a messages activity to turn off cursor tracking like it was recommended by the user guide. I deleted it and now use normal default cursor tracking options and it appears to have solved the issue with interacting with the html. Best.

Re: Sharing Reminder Lists in Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
Yes. Go to reminders list table and interact. Find the list you want to share and interact. M After the name of the list that should now be editable vo right and you should find a share button. It is not labeled. Here I am not sure and don't have mad with me. Either vo shift m or vo space on this button. Hope this helps.

Basic Cocoa Programming
HI all (and particularly Esther, as I have a feeling you may hold the answers to these questions), I'd like to try and understand a little about basic programming on the Mac. I'd like to see if I could develop some very simple little apps. I would, of course, want them to be accessible with VoiceOver. In fact, this would be my top priority. I've heard that programming in the Mac's native cocoa language is best in terms of VoiceOver accessibility. So, my questions are: 1. Does anyone know of a good resource for learning the basics of cocoa, particularly any that provide a VO accessibility point of view? and 2. Are there any apps that can be used to develop apps in cocoa which are accessible with VoiceOver? Many thanks for any help.

Re: Calibres ebook-converter
cheryl, agree. I use it for converting my meds books so i can use them on the ipad at school. Now i am a lazy girl so usually if I am in the car i just place Pad on the dash, and go. and have it split into different emails. It is not advanced, it works, i use all the Ipads native progrrams, and right now where i am in my life it is a matter of holding the geek-work on a bare minimum. sandi On 9/29/12, Chris Bruinenberg wrote: > so I'm sorry i didn't follow this thread enough. > Could i purchase a book from amazon, and convert it to pdf for ibooks? > > Thanks. > Chris Bruinenberg > > cbrui...@gmail.com > > > > On Sep 28, 2012, at 4:33 PM, Cheryl Homiak wrote: > >> I really love calibre now!
