Re: Not? a happy camper! App store broken? again!

2012-11-06 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Frankly, I too have developed different type platform software, so I too know 
what goes into it.  What I can tell you is the fact.  Apple is dropping care 
more and more for accessibility.

Let me support my reasonnings.

Retna Display Eye Candy

  a.. It seems lately all they care about is the new pretty eye-candy one gets 
with the new retina displays
  b.. Look at the new IPads and the new IMac coming out in December.  
Everyone's cuttling and cooing over the cute beautifully gorgeous display
  c.. Everyone loves that the new IOS displays are a higher megga pixil ratio 
of 1024X768

Facetime

  a.. Who in the blind community cares that the front eyesight camera on IOS 
devices is twice the pixil ratio!?

New Developments

  a.. Developing a really pretty lookin' doo-hicky cord for I O S called 
lightning interface, which really doesn't live any more up to its own name than 
the speed of USB.
  b.. IBooks has to be made more pretty, yeah there is the new accessibility 
with reading pdf's, and that's great, but not great for those of us who read 
books and not just pdf's.
  c.. ITunes Match is a great new feature, in fact, I'm a die hard fanatic of 
it, but again, why develop new things rather than maybe look more into things 
others have asked for for years.
  d.. ITunes Radio is great, but look at all the people who have wanted the 
ITunes search box/feature in that source so we don't have to scroll through a 
huge table, just to find the dad blamed station we need.  Believe you me, I'm 
not the first one who's blind, who's requested this dating as far back as 
several years ago.
  e.. Adding new things to the Apple TV like Apple Events, NBA, Hulu, Netflix, 
etc.  Why not work on the things that so many of us Apple TV users both blind 
and not have truely asked for rather than new features to surprise us.
  f.. App store on IOS eye candy is terrible!  They can't keep it straight and 
once done, leave it alone.  It always has to be more pretty for the people who 
aren't blink blinks.  Of corse, don't remind them that every time they change 
the store, they break it again and never really seem to fix things until we 
rant and rave and they finally hear enough of it.
  g.. The new ear pods: What the heck!  The initial ear buds were not that 
great anyway, but now you're gonna make these egg shaped things that poke into 
your ear canal even more so, and make your ears even worse and clog up your 
ears?  Hear Apple, wanna peace a my ear wax?
  h.. The new IPod Touch and new IPhone 5:  OK big frickin deal.  A bigger 
screen that's longer than the 4S predecessor.
  i.. The new ITunes store look/feel that came into 10.7.  Is there really any 
quote: difference? I sure don't see any.
  j.. What about the Apple cinema displays.  Sure they're real nice.  Real nice 
and expensive.  Real nice and bulky for us who couldn't care two licks less if 
we had a 1 centimeter screen vs. a 1000 kilometer sized screen.  We can't see 
anyway. who cares!

See what I mean?  It's all the hife about looky do this, looky do that. Looky 
do me, with a baseball bat!  BTW, are they punting?  Sorry, inside joke.  
Seriously though...  I don't doubt that they are listenning to feedback, I 
agree with you whole heartedly, but are they listenning only to the feedback 
they like and wanna hear is the question.  I too am sorry to sound so 
blunt/rough, but in my defense, you have to admit whether you want to or not, I 
do stand some valid points.  Maybe if not many, I do at least, stand some.

Re: Not? a happy camper! App store broken? again!

2012-11-06 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Tammy, are you saying that on your IPad, ***RED LETTERS: not? I? Phone!*** 
but IPad you can swipe from one result on the screen to another in the 
search results?  I know you can do this on the featured list, top chart 
list, genious list, etc.  but try searching from the search box up near the 
top, and when done typing the search query, go on your on screen keyboard 
right above your right shift key, and double tap the search icon.  Now, look 
on the screen.  You'll have one search result, and one only.  Are you trying 
to tell me you were able to scroll to the right/left to reveal more results? 
What version of I O S are you running?  If you're on I O S 5, or for that 
mind 6.0, then that's why.  I didn't see this issue crop up, until 6.0.1. 
and it's not like it is either on the IPhone, where you have near the bottom 
center of the screen, and adjuster you can one finger flick up/down on. 
Believe me, I've tried this on a 3rd generation IPad, as well as the new 
IPad mini that just came out, both of which are running 6.0.1, and in both 
cases, I can't move from result to result.  To further complicate things, 
you know how it automatically brings a popup window up with a list of 
results as you type that get populated, whereby you don't have to even hit 
the search icon after typing?  Well, if I try double tapping one of those 
results from that list popup, it then says no results for result app name 
found.


It's totally idiotic!  I did this with about 4 different app name searches 
just to see if it's something with just one particular app, but that isn't 
the case.  So, if you're truely on a 3rd gen, 4th gen, or mini IPad, and 
you're truely on i o s 6.0.1, not 5.1.1, nor 6.0, then do tell.  How with 
Voiceover are you swiping and moving the app cards back and forth from 
result to result in the search?  What are about the other 10 of us who on 
Apple vis have tried this missing?  Enlighten us!  That's not meant to sound 
like ok, smarty pants... show us!  I'm not meaning it that way.  Don't read 
between the lines.  I'm actually genuinely asking you to show us what we're 
doing wrong, if you'd be so kind to.

Re: facebook: what is the best way, or app, to tag people?

2012-11-06 Thread Chris
I have been told that the latest update to the official Facebook app now 
provides accessibility to the friends list. There are other 
accessibility improvements but this is one of them. I have just updated 
mine so can't say for sure.

dear all,

since we're complaining about apple and it breaking things, let me come and ask 
you to save me with something here.
I had a lot of difficult tagging people on Facebook, be it in the middle of posts or 
marking them as "with me". someone taught me how to do it, and it seems to me 
that sometimes that option is accessible on Facebook, sometimes not.
are there any hints you can give as for an app that allows this feature to be 
done better, or hints on how you all keep that functionality working constantly?

thank you

yes I certainly understand your points and I can see where almst all of

Apple has told their lead software developer to leave besides the fact 
he screwed up the maps on the IOS devices.

Wait.  Lead developer?  I thought that it was a group of people that developed 
the software for Apple, not just a one man job.  OK, maybe he had the highest 
ranking, but surely he isn't the only one who was doing this stuff.  I mean

Re: accessing drop folder and sent folder

2012-11-06 Thread Thomas McMahan
Find mail boxes and expand them with v o backslash or is it v o shift 
backslash, don't even think about the combo anymore, then interact and you 
should find them.  The only one you may not see is outbox, but if you have a 
message waiting to go you will see it in the list, otherwise it will disappear 
until needed.

Yes it's v o backslash.  May have to full screen mode, also don't know if you 
are in classic layout or the new.  Mine is set for classic.

yes I certainly understand your points and I can see where
almst all of them would be valid.  But I wonder if this is
part of the reason that Apple has told their lead software
developer to leave besides the fact he screwed up the maps on
the IOS devices.

OK, but this sender, believe me, I have a damn good idea who she's referring 
to, is persistent!  If he finds you're not answerring him for a reason or 
another, he'll create a fake e-mail and then harass you with it.  I probably 
have over literally 200 e-mail address he's created which by me reading the 
e-mail headers, I found out it was actually him.  I wish I could block e-mail 
regardless the address, coming from a particular I P address, but I don't think 
that's possible on any! O S.  Even if it was, his I P is not static.  I think 
it's dynamic, so, there went that idea.  Unfortunately, my I S P won't do 
anything about it either.

Well, it sure would be nice if you could just open the context menu on an

delete rule to apply to an IP address or a range of addresses.  Seems to be 
there's got to be a better way.

Re: question about hotspots

Hi Anne,

This is kind of my experience. However I find that, if I create activities fr 
apps they remember the hotspots. They might not remember wether to monitor or 
not but the actual place is remembered as long as it has data in it. For 
example, in itunes I have hotspots in the lcd section to monitor progress of 
sync of iphone and this works pretty well.

All the best,

Re: Not? a happy camper! App store broken? again!

2012-11-06 Thread Tammy

Hi,
Well first of all, whether you meant to sound like that or not, it's exactly 
how you sounded, just like you sound in most of your other messages, rude 
and obnoxious!  But aside from that, I have an ipad 3rd generation, just as 
I said I did in my previous message, **not an iphone** (letters in normal 
type to avoid people thinking I believe them to be inferior to myself when 
they're not and simply trying to help),  16 gig WyFi, and until you 
mentioned this search bug I didn't know people were experiencing it.  I just 
search the way I normally do, by typing in my search term, and pressing the 
search button or just looking above the keyboard for the search results. 
There's usually more than one, and I can flick or swipe to it and doubletap 
on it to bring up it's screen in the app store.  That's really all I can 
tell you, I don't notice any difference between the ipad with op system 5 
and the new 6.1 update.  I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help, and equally 
as sorry I weighed in to this thread at all.

Subject: Re: Not? a happy camper! App store broken? again!

Tammy, are you saying that on your IPad, ***RED LETTERS: not? I? Phone!***
but IPad you can swipe from one result on the screen to another in the
search results?  I know you can do this on the featured list, top chart
list, genious list, etc.  but try searching from the search box up near the
top, and when done typing the search query, go on your on screen keyboard
right above your right shift key, and double tap the search icon.  Now, look
on the screen.  You'll have one search result, and one only.  Are you trying
to tell me you were able to scroll to the right/left to reveal more results?
What version of I O S are you running?  If you're on I O S 5, or for that
mind 6.0, then that's why.  I didn't see this issue crop up, until 6.0.1.
and it's not like it is either on the IPhone, where you have near the bottom
center of the screen, and adjuster you can one finger flick up/down on.
Believe me, I've tried this on a 3rd generation IPad, as well as the new
IPad mini that just came out, both of which are running 6.0.1, and in both
cases, I can't move from result to result.  To further complicate things,
you know how it automatically brings a popup window up with a list of
results as you type that get populated, whereby you don't have to even hit
the search icon after typing?  Well, if I try double tapping one of those
results from that list popup, it then says no results for result app name
found.

It's totally idiotic!  I did this with about 4 different app name searches
just to see if it's something with just one particular app, but that isn't
the case.  So, if you're truely on a 3rd gen, 4th gen, or mini IPad, and
you're truely on i o s 6.0.1, not 5.1.1, nor 6.0, then do tell.  How with
Voiceover are you swiping and moving the app cards back and forth from
result to result in the search?  What are about the other 10 of us who on
Apple vis have tried this missing?  Enlighten us!  That's not meant to sound
like ok, smarty pants... show us!  I'm not meaning it that way.  Don't read
between the lines.  I'm actually genuinely asking you to show us what we're
doing wrong, if you'd be so kind to.

Chris.

I must not be doing something correctly.  I entered my name with the I, as the

doesn't translate.

You're not alone.  iPad and iPad mini running IOS 6.0.1 app store runs just

An Update From Assistiveware Regarding Infovox Ivox Demo Voices

2012-11-06 Thread Shawn Krasniuk
Hello everyone. As promised, here is what Assistiveware says about the issue 
we're experiencing.




From:
AssistiveWare (Martijn)
To:
bigbigshawn@gmail.com
Subject:
AW {37345} RE: New Voices Giving Me Demo Messages
## Reply ABOVE THIS LINE to add a note to this request ##
Request update  View the complete request
Dear Shawn,

We're investigating the problem at the moment. The cause may be in the internet 
connection. Since the hurricane the connection to eastern US is not that good. 
Infovox iVox has a one minute time-out on contacting the server for demo 
purposes. This may be too fast at the moment.

I would like to ask you some additional questions. If you could take the time 
to answer them this would be great.

- Did you upgrade from Infovox iVox version 3.0, or was Infovox iVox 3.1 a new 
installation of your computer.

- Did you stop and restart the application that says "this is an evaluation 
version"? This might be Voice Over.

- Did you restart the computer, and if so, does the problem persist after the 
restart?

With kind regards,

Martijn

Simple.  If you've got someone who's really annoiing you, of course, you'll 
want to block them.  OF course, if your question is to ask why anybody  would 
want to spam someone, well, that I don't know.  Stupidity would be my guess.

Re: without passing through router?

2012-11-06 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
Thanks for your detailed response.
Like you said, it opens up more questiones than it answers.

I have a sighted husband that could help with non VO friendly solutions. Could 
you mind telling me what those might be?

Also, I am just thinking letting timemachine do its thing although it takes 
forever. I am thinking that for subsequent bakcups it would be faster since 
there is less to update. Do any of you know if timemachine can continue backup 
where it left off if the backup was interrupted? IN this case am I risking 
corrupted data?

hanks very much!

I do not understand My Places.  I was thinking I could put the name of a place 
that I go to often and then choose it when I am ready to go there but it tells 
me I am 20 feet from both of them.  I also put in my hair salon which it found 
but the directions seemed backwards.  How do I go from home to a place with 
directions on how to get there?  Mel

Re: Blindsquare again

2012-11-06 Thread Ilkka Pirttimaa
Hello!

You can add place when you are at the location. So it takes coordinates
where you are and saves that with the name. Is this the case?

I'm just adding a feature that you can search any foursquare venue and then
add that as a favorite. That way you can also add places where you are not
at the moment...

Re: Not? a happy camper! App store broken? again!

2012-11-06 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Again, I'm sorry yuou feel I'm rude and obnoxious.  Perhaps I should just 
leave the list and never again offer my opinion or help.  I siply was 
stating fact.  If I sounded rude, again, it was not my intention, and I do 
not appreciate you shaming me publicly as you did.  If you have a problem 
with me, take it up off list.  My e-mail is in my sig on all my e-mails, so 
that wouldn't have been too hard.  I'm shocked that you are getting the 
search results to work as when I double tap any of the results up above 
without first hitting search after typing it my query, it then takes me to a 
blank page which says no search results found for... the name of the app... 
whatever it may wind up being... which I double tapped.  But then, if I 
don't go that route, but instead I hit the actual search icon after typing 
my key words in, then I'm presented with that screen I mentioned where you 
only get one app card per page/screen, and what I seem to be observing is 
that if I 3 finger flick up I do notice the page does actually scroll.  I 
have enough vision to see this... not enough to read the screen, but as long 
as I'm on inverted colors, I can definitely tell the screen visually is 
indeed moving.  The problem is, I don't seem to see that Voiceover is 
properly tracking when I move.  It's almost like unless I scroll manually 
with the 3 finger gesture, it only reads the first little bit of the first 
result, then it jumps me down to the bottom tabs like featured, charts, 
genius, etc.  It actually quite bizarre.  I did manage to get ahold of Apple 
accessibility via phone, and spoke to a guy, who ironically's name also is 
Chris.  Go figure.  Anyway, he was really really really nice, and extremely 
helpful.  He did something I've found most advisors not to do.  He actually 
went and got both an IPad mini, as well as an IPad 3rd gen both from the 
test lab, and turned Voiceover on with both of them, and he and I together 
both went through on my two devices, as well as the two lab devices.  Across 
all four devices, we were able on every one of them to reproduce exactly the 
same problem.  So, yeah, I don't doubt that it's working for you.  I just 
wish that I knew more specifically what, if anything, you're doing 
differently.


Again, I'm incredibly frustrated.  Maybe I shouldn't have been so harsh, or 
in your words obnoxious, but do me a favor.  I'll try to tone it down a bit, 
but I'm going to in return ask not just you, but that anyone who has an 
issue with what I say, write me off list.  NO one needs to hear the drama of 
you're rude your this, your that.  Maybe I was very very rude, and maybe 
even very harsh.  Hell, fine, I'll even go so far to say maybe even I over 
reacted.  I don't think I did personally, but it's perception, and if you 
feel I did, then that's what matters.  I'd like thus to be the man here, and 
say I truely apologize.  NO really, I do.  It wasn't my intention to offend 
you, nor anyone else on list.  Though that sounds hard to believe, my 
ententions were, and still are good.  It's just that when I see companies 
like Apple who have things up front that work, then I see them do things 
which break them, ok, it's one thing if they break things in updates once in 
a while, but look at it this way:  when I O S 6.0 first came out, right 
before it did, in the Gold Master, the app store was really! broken, and I 
mean bad! bad! broken!  So much so, it almost was totally unusable.  Well it 
took David from over at Applevis, to breach N D A and drop the bombshell 
which at the time, I felt was totally! inappropriate, but looking back on it 
now, I'm glad he did what he did.  Anyway, it took him doing that, then 
letting Apple know he did it totally intentionally, plus it took about 80 to 
90 comments on that thread to finally make Apple wake up, and go, oh, crap! 
Maybe we should fix this before our official release.  It seems like they're 
willing to fix things, yes, but only if we push them to drastic measures to 
do so.  In my book, that doesn't really show commitment.  That shows 
laziness/carelessness.


Again, it's my opinion, and I am sticking to it.  You don't have to agree 
with it, that's your right, but the bottom line is, I'm not trying to take 
it and make rude comments off of it.  It's not exactly my problem if you 
feel that I am being rude.  I said I was sorry, but I can't say anything 
more.  If an apology isn't enough, then I don't know what is left to tell 
you, but let me leave you with one more thing:  you chose in the first place 
to respond to this topic on list.  You didn't *have!* to do that.  If you 
felt I was being rude, then why did you waist your energy giving more to it? 
NO offense.


OK, enough with the drama.  that's all that I have left to say.  If anyone's 
got any further sticks or stones they wanna throw at me, do it off list!

thing that totally baffling perplexes  me.  How could some devices have this

iPad app store

2012-11-06 Thread Lisette Wesseling
I'm only going to weigh into this discussion by saying that I too am having the 
problems Chris described. I'm running an iPad 2 gen with 6.01. I can only get 
to one of the search results after pressing search. The pop up above the search 
field does populate, but double tapping on anything produces the message that 
there are no results. Interesting some people are not having this problem. I'm 
going to write to Apple about it and hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Cheers all

Re: Blocking Email Senders?

2012-11-06 Thread Teresa Cochran
Thanks, Harry. The spate of spam seems to have stopped (touch wood) at about 
11:30 my time. This is the first time I've gotten such a barrage of nonsense in 
such a short time. Having Mail in conversation view seems to make getting rid 
of it quite painless. It is gone now, for the time being.

Thanks,
Teresa

Re: Blocking Email Senders?

2012-11-06 Thread Harry Hogue
Hello Teresa,

Conversation mail is exceptionally useful for deleting a large volume of 
unwanted e-mails.

Personally, I do not see the advantage to using Mail in classic view, since it 
doesn't offer the option of reading mail in conversation view, nor does it 
allow you to VO-J between the message text and the messages table, which, to 
me, is the quickest way to move about in Mail.

Thanks,

Harry

Finder's oddities causing problems for a new user

2012-11-06 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
I'm still helping my friend with the new iMac. Last week we worked on moving 
downloaded and unzipped Bard books to an NLS cartridge. Unfortunately, Finder 
didn't cooperate, sometimes changing its view mode so that keystrokes I was 
trying to teach him no longer worked. The problem came in getting from the 
downloads folder, where the books are, to the cartridge's root. Personally I 
just hit cmd-shift-g, type in /volumes, and go on my way, but I was hoping for 
a simpler system to teach. So, is there a way to lock everything into whatever 
view lets us left arrow to volumes and then down arrow to the cartridge? 
Failing that, is there a way I could hack together a script, to be triggered 
with a keystroke, which would do the copying automatically? Thanks.


Have a great day,

Re: Blocking Email Senders?

2012-11-06 Thread David Tanner
This is far from the first time this list has turned into a disgusting place to 
be.  I have recommended NVDA, I have interviewed Mike several times for 
MainMenu, and I have a lot of respect for him, and for the entire development 
team.  But, I have to say that given the ongoing problems with this mailinglist 
I hesitate to recommend that anyone interested in NVDA subscribe to this list 
because there is far to high a chance that they will see some of the most 
disgusting dirt on this list that one could see anywhere.  And, if I were the 
developers of NVDA they would do well to insist that this list either be 
cleaned up or go away.

  OK, but this sender, believe me, I have a damn good idea who she's referring 
to, is persistent!  If he finds you're not answerring him for a reason or 
another, he'll create a fake e-mail and then harass you with it.  I probably 
have over literally 200 e-mail address he's created which by me reading the 
e-mail headers, I found out it was actually him.  I wish I could block e-mail 
regardless the address, coming from a particular I P address, but I don't think 
that's possible on any! O S.  Even if it was, his I P is not static.  I think 
it's dynamic, so, there went that idea.  Unfortunately, my I S P won't do 
anything about it either.

Re: Finder's oddities causing problems for a new user

2012-11-06 Thread Cheryl Homiak
Why are you using cmd-shift-g and typing? Just open the window the books are 
coming from and open the window they are going to. Then Do cmd-c to copy and 
cmd-accent to go to the other window and cmd-v to paste. And i suspect if your 
view is changing, there's a reason; I could be wrong but I don't think it's an 
oddity that happens without reason. But I am afraid that without more 
information I can't tell you why it's happening.

Something to ignore. Think my gmail account was compromised. So might have to 
get a new one.

So don't need loads of messages about the email that went out. I just got to my 
emails and noticed this. So sorry to all for the strange email from my account.

Re: without passing through router?

2012-11-06 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

You are correct in most accounts.  Time Machine will continue from where it 
left off if all things are equal, meaning that you're using the same Backup 
location and configuration as well as connection method.  Yes it should be much 
quicker on future backups.

With respect to the Internet connection being lost when the ethernet cable is 
connected.  Try going to the System Prefs, in the Network pane.  In the Actions 
pop-up menu, choose "Set Service Order" and then drag the WIFI above the 
Ethernet service.  This should allow the WIFI to maintain its Internet 
connection but still allow connectivity between computers with the ethernet 
cable.  Note that "should" is my favourite word in computer-land so I'm not 
promising that it will work perfectly.  I do, in my world, use multiple network 
services but these are usually in a Server environment so your machine may 
behave differently.

Good luck.

Later...

Re: Finder's oddities causing problems for a new user

2012-11-06 Thread Cheryl Homiak
Okay, Now I see why you are using cmd-shift-g. I think if you just opened the 
drive on the desktop it might ultimately be easier and your view shouldn't 
change. But if you think it's easier to do cmd-shift-g, you can type part of 
the / Vol and tab and it will complete and you can just do the whole path from 
there. You probably know what I mean but type:
/Vaol (tab) yourdrive (tab), etc. Then if you need to access it more than once, 
you just leave the window open and cmd-accent to it.
