fan running all the time
hello folks. I seem to be running into a problem where the fan on my macbook is running all the time. the unit also seems to be running a lot warmer since I installed lion. This machine is just 1 revision behind what would be supported for mountain lion, so I cannot go there. anyway, does anyone know what is causing this? -eric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: fan running all the time
Hi Eric, It could be just as simple as cleaning the vents. I am no tech, but that is what I would try first.Do you have any kind of applecare with the machine? If so, they may be able to help you diagnose your issue. Pam Francis On Oct 7, 2012, at 1:23 AM, Eric Oyen eric.o...@gmail.com wrote: hello folks.

Re: fan running all the time
already checked that. vent is clean (even had someone with working eyes check it). this problem only appeared AFTER upgrading to lion. the unit was running cooler under snow leopard and never demonstrated this problem before the upgrade (less than 2 days ago). -eric On Oct 6, 2012, at 11:39 PM, Pam Francis wrote: Hi Eric, It could be just as simple as cleaning the vents.

getting started with garage band
Dear listers, I found a few podcasts about getting started in garage band, and I've listened to these carefully. I'd like to be able to do a few different things with it though, for which I did not really find a lot of stuff to get me started. Can anyone please answer some or maybe all the following questions? Say I have an audio track in wav format, or anything for that matter. Is garage band a good tool to edit audio files? Can I normalize, copy, cut and paste easily in garage band, using voiceover, or should I stick with amadeus pro to do that type of job? In windows, I use sonar to create bits of music I need. If I want to use garage band, am I restricted to the built-in virtual instruments, or can I find other instruments elsewhere? When editing music created with virtual instruments, is it possible for us to do things like editing timings for notes, going to a particular measure and beat, and select, copy and paste material for virtual instrument tracks? I'm very interested to find out about this, because the sounds of the built-in garage band instruments are generally very promising. I don't have any experience in garage band yet using voiceover on the mac. Please tell me what you have found out already. Thanks a lot for taking time to answer this. Paul. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com.

Re: Discovered something in Safari
Hey Alex I'm just glad it works! Before, I used to go to finder to check this because I have been led to believe that you can check the things. Any improvements come down the line, I'll take them.

I've never had this happen before, but their computer must have been having a problem. I had gotten my sighted husband to check the download progress because ours truly hadn't figured out how. He left the room, and I decided to try something. After pressing option command l and getting the list, I then got desperate and interacted with the title of one of them. And lo, when I pressed VO right arrow, there was the progress indicator. I ended up fixing my problem, so all's well. I also have just discovered, at least in Bard, that the return key is working instead of control option space on those links.

Re: selecting multiple items not in order?
Also, hitting any arrow key by itself (not with the vo keys) will de-select everything and let you start over. This also means that, if you forget yourself and start arrowing around without the vo keys, as I sometimes do, you will undo your selecting.

MacBook Pro changing timezones
Hi, I just tried this week and found that VoiceOver is unable to interact with the world map in the timezones tab under System Preferences. Because I have a MacBook Pro, I don't have location services. So when I tried changing the timezone, VoiceOver tells me no visible title to interact. I emailed accessibility at Apple and they insisted VoiceOver is able to interact and change the timezone. So I'm wondering if anyone else with the latest Mountain Lion updates is able to interact with the world map and change the timezone? Because I cannot for some reason.

Playing Flash Movies
HI guys, I know this topic has been discussed at length before, but a Google search didn't give me any answers and the Google Groups website itself is really frustrating to read. So please forgive any repetition. I know flash is basically inaccessible with Safari, except for where the movies automatically play as in youtube. However, I thought I had read on this forum before that Chrome works well for playing flash movies. I tried playing flash movies with chrome but had no success. Still couldn't find any play buttons or the like. What's the trick for playing flash movies in Chrome? Or did I misunderstand something and is flash just as inaccessible with Google Chrome as with Safari?

Question About Building A Website

My question to the list is; is there anyone on the list that has set up there own website?

Re: MacBook Pro changing timezones
you don't have to interact with the map at all. There's a time zone button to the right of the map and a combo box for nearest city. At any rate, if you do a down arrow on the combo box and then hit enter on the city you want, you can change the city. In fact, once you do the down arrow and vo says interacting with list, one item selected, you can start typing the name of your city and it will either give you choices accordingly or you can finish typing. Once you hit enter after choosing or typing the city you want, stop interacting with vokeys-shift up arrow. So yes, accessibility is right about this even though they didn't give you specific instructions. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.

SOS with iMovie please!
Hello all! I was using iMovie OK, but now, some things seem to have changed, or I don't know if it is me. When I select a clip from an event and try to paste in the project, It is pasted immediately before the last one. How can I ensure that the clip that I bring is going to be pasted at last place? An other thing, How do I select very short parts of a clip to delete them? I use the value indicators, but for example, is there a way to make my selection to start at the reproduction cursor, so I just move the end of selection indicator? Thank you very much for your help, if somebody can give me a hand, I will appreciate it very much, because I am doing a video that I need for twesday and this is getting me cracy. Thank you!

Re: boot camp
yes, you can do it with a win7 installation CD - as long as its a full (not an upgrade) licensed copy of windows7. Read the bootcamp installation and setup guide for details about the bootcamp side of the installation, and for the actual windows install, www.blackViper.com has an excellent step-by-step guide to installing windows7. Use bootcamp assistant to download and burn the bootcamp drivers to a CD or DVD. You'll install them after installing windows. Once windows is installed, then you can install a screen reader and have at it. - Original Message - From: Wayne Coles wayne...@gmail.com To: macvisionaries macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, October 06, 2012 8:56 PM Subject: boot camp hello list i am trying to put boot camp on my mbp2012 and i have a windows7 cd here but i have no external drive do i have to one to do this and when trying to run boot camp assistant it will not let me and it says something about iso so can it be done with just a win 7 cd and if so how so please any help at this point in time would be very helpful Wayne Coles wayne...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: boot camp
Wayne, I just did this yesterday, so its fresh in my mind. Here goes. first I assume your MBP has a CD/DVD drive? if not then I can't help you. if so, then, run bootcamp assistant, check the box for installing windows and uncheck the box for downloading the bootcamp drivers as you already have them. On the next screen, set the partition size for bootcamp. I just pressed divide equally which gives equal sizes to both Mac and Bootcamp windows. If you want, you can interact with the divider or splitter thingy and change the size of each partition as you like. Now, insert your windows7 installation CD into the CD/DVD drive and press install. Bootcamp assistant will create the bootcamp (windows7) partition and reboot into the windows installer. Now, you need sighted assistance because there's no VO, and no way to have speech until you complete the windows instal. Get someone who's computer literate, preferably someone who uses windows7 all the time and can easily get around the screens with a mouse or the keyboard. In other words, don't ask your 90 year old grandmother for sighted assistance. Once windows7 is fully installed and setup, insert the bootcamp drivers CD and install them. Finally, you can install a screen reader and windows will come up talking. You'll Need: 1) your windows7 CD and the Product Key at the ready. 2) the bootcamp drivers CD. 3) your screen reader and its product key. I burned jaws12 installer package onto a CD and had the registration key ready. I think that's about it. Check out Black Viper's windows7 installation guide thoroughly - it'll give you an idea of the steps involved in the win7 install. Also, very important, during the win7 install, at the Disk Drives screen where you're asked where you want to install windows, you MUST select the Bootcamp partition that the assistant created. And, you must check the box that says to Format thwe partition. Read the appropriate section in the bootcamp install guide for more info on that. Once you're past that screen, the remainder of the win7 install is fairly straightforward. I had the BlackViper tutorial up on another machine and used it to follow along step-by-step with my sighted assistant as he went through the win7 install screens, so I know what he was doing.

Re: MacBook Pro changing timezones
Thank you. Your explanation makes perfect sense. Too bad Apple Accessibility isn't as clear with their emails.

RE: boot camp
Hello all thanks for all the great advice it is now installing it was me misreading the instructions so all is well so far again thanks to all --wayne coles---Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Phil Halton Sent: 07 October 2012 15:32 To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: boot camp yes, you can do it with a win7 installation CD - as long as its a full (not an upgrade) licensed copy of windows7. Read the bootcamp installation and setup guide for details about the bootcamp side of the installation, and for the actual windows install, www.blackViper.com has an excellent step-by-step guide to installing windows7. Use bootcamp assistant to download and burn the bootcamp drivers to a CD or DVD. You'll install them after installing windows.

RE: boot camp
For the great instructions Yes i have done all that and all is well and thanks -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Phil Halton Sent: 07 October 2012 15:48 To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: boot camp Wayne, I just did this yesterday, so its fresh in my mind. Here goes. first I assume your MBP has a CD/DVD drive? if not then I can't help you. if so, then, run bootcamp assistant, check the box for installing windows and uncheck the box for downloading the bootcamp drivers as you already have them. On the next screen, set the partition size for bootcamp. I just pressed divide equally which gives equal sizes to both Mac and Bootcamp windows. If you want, you can interact with the divider or splitter thingy and change the size of each partition as you like. Now, insert your windows7 installation CD into the CD/DVD drive and press install. Bootcamp assistant will create the bootcamp (windows7) partition and reboot into the windows installer. Now, you need sighted assistance because there's no VO, and no way to have speech until you complete the windows instal. Get someone who's computer literate, preferably someone who uses windows7 all the time and can easily get around the screens with a mouse or the keyboard. In other words, don't ask your 90 year old grandmother for sighted assistance. Once windows7 is fully installed and setup, insert the bootcamp drivers CD and install them. Finally, you can install a screen reader and windows will come up talking. You'll Need: 1) your windows7 CD and the Product Key at the ready. 2) the bootcamp drivers CD. 3) your screen reader and its product key. I burned jaws12 installer package onto a CD and had the registration key ready. I think that's about it. Check out Black Viper's windows7 installation guide thoroughly - it'll give you an idea of the steps involved in the win7 install. Also, very important, during the win7 install, at the Disk Drives screen where you're asked where you want to install windows, you MUST select the Bootcamp partition that the assistant created. And, you must check the box that says to Format thwe partition. Read the appropriate section in the bootcamp install guide for more info on that. Once you're past that screen, the remainder of the win7 install is fairly straightforward. I had the BlackViper tutorial up on another machine and used it to follow along step-by-step with my sighted assistant as he went through the win7 install screens, so I know what he was doing.

Hi Eric. This is a well-known issue in Lion. When Lion was first released, someone posted on here about turning the back light off and that fixed the problem.

Re: boot camp
Nice concise instructions! Also, while i'm sure yu can also download it, when you are given the option to print the setup guide you can choose that but then save it as a pdf instead.

shaedia over a network?
Hi all, I have a mini in my room which is my personal computer, and has all my media. I'd like to share this media on the network so that the mac downstairs can play it, without having to copy and update the files to the second mac. Both use iTunes as their media player, but the downstairs mac is used by three people, each with their own apple ID, so I can't just put my library on the downstairs one with my account since I might not be the one who wants to listen. So, what is the best solution? Of course, ideally we would go buy a new router, one with NAS support, but those are kind of expensive, so what do people recommend until then? Thanks.

Re: getting started with garage band
Paul, I'd highly recommend the tutorial Ricardo Walker put together, but if that's not quite thorough enough, I have made a tutorial which is about 5 hours in length and I cover ever single question that you asked. The tutorial is $35.00 via paypal, and I can then send it to you once the payment is received. It's in mp3 format. If you are interested, write me off list, and let me know at: clgillan...@gmail.com This way we can work out payment arrangements. Chris. - Original Message - From: Paul Erkens paul.erk...@gmail.com To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, October 07, 2012 6:16 AM Subject: getting started with garage band Dear listers, I found a few podcasts about getting started in garage band, and I've listened to these carefully. I'd like to be able to do a few different things with it though, for which I did not really find a lot of stuff to get me started. Can anyone please answer some or maybe all the following questions? Say I have an audio track in wav format, or anything for that matter. Is garage band a good tool to edit audio files? Can I normalize, copy, cut and paste easily in garage band, using voiceover, or should I stick with amadeus pro to do that type of job? In windows, I use sonar to create bits of music I need. If I want to use garage band, am I restricted to the built-in virtual instruments, or can I find other instruments elsewhere? When editing music created with virtual instruments, is it possible for us to do things like editing timings for notes, going to a particular measure and beat, and select, copy and paste material for virtual instrument tracks? I'm very interested to find out about this, because the sounds of the built-in garage band instruments are generally very promising. I don't have any experience in garage band yet using voiceover on the mac. Please tell me what you have found out already. Thanks a lot for taking time to answer this.

Re: Connectin a Braille note to iPhone 4S.
My first thought is that you tried to pair using the bluetooth menu on one device or the other. As I stated in the podcast, make sure to erase any pairings from both devices first, then turn the iphone off and back on and reset the apex. It is an apex, right? Also,, double check the name by going to options, connectivity, setup, computer name. The name must be the default, something like APEX000123 (note the word apex is in all caps).

Re: shaedia over a network?
So does the iTunes sharing not do what you want? Go into Preferences and then Sharing. You can can choose to share your entire library.

Re: Playing Flash Movies
Hadn't heard that before. I thought the issue was a fundamental one in that Adobe did not hook Flash to the Apple accessibility stuff so Voiceover has no insight as to what is going on inside the Flash widget. Some flash video players have external controls for pause/play constructed from HTML links and the link so those work fine but the ones that use flash for video playback and the controls are nigh impossible to use on OSX.

However, I thought I had read on this forum before that Chrome works well for playing flash movies. I tried playing flash movies with chrome but had no success. Still couldn't find any play buttons or the like. What's the trick for playing flash movies in Chrome?

disappearing keystrokes?
Hi all, I've noticed that, once every few days, a few keystrokes will not register. For instance, my email about sharing music over my home network had the subject sharedia over local network, but I had actually written sharing media over local network. What is going on here? I have keyboard echo completely off, so I should hear any busy messages that might block typing. However, I not only hear no such messages, but I also have found that, when an app is busy and I am typing, it fills in what I wrote after it stops being busy. Is it just me and my minuscule amount of ram (2gb on a 2011 mini), or is something else perhaps going on? Thanks.

A Question About The Latest Version of the Messaging App on Both iOS and Mac
Hello Everyone, I am posting this to both lists. I just updated my Mac, today, to the latest version. In the release notes, it states that the latest version of the Messaging App now allows for people to send messages to your phone number and you will see them on your Mac. I Interpret this to mean that, assuming you are using iMessage on your iOS device and, assuming that you are signed into the same iCloud account on both your Mac and iOS device, you should see incoming messages sent to your iOS phone number, on the Mac, in the Messages app, as well as on your phone. Am I wrong? I just received a text message from a fellow iOS iMessage user on my phone but it did not show up in the Messages app on my Mac. Do I need to enable something new in order to get this to work? All feedback welcomed. Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

troubles sharing reminder lists: vo and the edit field
Hi all, I'm trying to share a shopping list in reminders with two people. I shared it with the first as a test, and when that worked I shared it with the second. The fierst person then received a notice that I had removed them from the sharing, which was not my intent - I want all three of us to have access, not just two at a time. Now, I'm trying to add both of their names to the edit field in the share window, but vo is behaving very oddly, not at all like the smooth and easy access you find in the to or cc fields of the mail app. Vo never says when a name auto-completes, and that completion seems to not always happen. It also reports all text as embedded text, whatever that means, and crashes when I press space or comma to try to separate two names. There also seems no way to see with whom I am sharing a list; I sort of expected a table of contacts with an add button next to it. Does anyone have experience sharing lists? If so, have you shared with multiple users? The documentation is unclear as to whether this is possible or not, but it seems to indicate it is. Any help would be great, thanks.

Re: described content on iTunes, plus purchasing questions
Actually a lot of movies are providing descriptive video content. You can do a google search for movies that are released each year with descriptive video, and at least the numbers are going up each year. Several DVDs are being released with the audio descriptive track. This is where my problem lies if you can purchase the physical DVD which comes with an option to watch the movie with a descriptive audio track than why can't Apple and/or Netflix offer that as an option that is what my problem is with. I have emailed Accessibility at Apple several times, and have had a nice running dialogue with them on several issues and do appreciate all their hard work, but am getting a little sick of hearing we are aware of the problem, but can't say when there will be a fix. I would like to to see at least one issue I have addressed with them be fixed, otherwise, I just feel like I am wasting my time with them. And yes, I do know these things take time. I have been emailing Apple for years. On Oct 4, 12:30 am, Brian Fischler blindga...@gmail.com wrote: Hey guys, Just wanted to chime in here, as it really is ashame how ignored we the blind are when it comes to described video. For example, I have yet to find a Netflix title through Netflix streaming offer descriptive video. Then again, I think that Netflix just recently was pressured into providing the close captioning option for their titles. Unfortunately, we the blind have such a weak lobby that I don't see this as an option anytime soon. Considering that the 21st Century Communications Accessibility Act went into effect on July 1, and none of the blind organizations had a mention of this historic legislation on their websites, not sure who we would even approach about addressing this. From the little research that I have done neither Netflix, nor Amazon, nor Itunes offers any of their content with descriptive video. For now, I rely on the movie feeds through Serotek and sitting at my computer. Of course, I have a mac, and have to use chrome which seems to be the only browser that works with this fantastic content. The only problem is there is no way to rewind or fast forward the content, which is a problem, especially if you have a prblem with a movie which happened to me once. Would love to hear I am wrong on some of this, so please do let me know. Thanks On Sep 28, 9:52 pm, Alex Hall mehg...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, Is there described content available on iTunes? If so, how does one find it and how wide-spread is it? Second, a more general purchasing question. When one buys a movie or tv show on iTunes, does one then own it for life, or is it a rental-like arrangement? I know I own the songs I buy, but I am not sure about longer content with different licensing like tv shows or movies. Thanks.
