Re: Podcasters Unite!

2012-11-09 Thread Mauricio Almeida
hi mike,

I have done somethings in radios before, but i haven't tried anything since i 
got the mac, so i'd be happy to link up and get something going.
I'd have to learn what programs are used and so on, though:)

Re: Anyone have Terminal tricks and resources?

2012-11-09 Thread Chris Blouch
Sort of the difference between asking someone to do something for you 
and doing it yourself. When you ask someone else it may or may not get 
done the way you want it when you want it. Terminal lets you do exactly 
what you want, so I usually end up there when things are in a weird 
state like a file I can't seem to delete or to use a special tool to 
take care of repetitive tasks or bulk changes. So I'd start with working 
through a few tutorials and post here if you get stuck or something 
doesn't make sense. Here are a few to start with:

Re: Accessing SiriusXM content on the Mac

2012-11-09 Thread Mike Arrigo
You probably will not be able to access it. The web based player is completely 
flash based, and flash is not accessible on the mac. Using something such as 
click to flash will not work either since they prevent flash content from 
loading which the player requires.

Podcasters Unite!

2012-11-09 Thread Mike M
To all the pod caters in this list.
I want to see who would be interested in doing a show together. 
This can be a one time gig or a monthly thing but I have been thinking 
that since there are so many podcasters in this list it might be cool for us 
all to link up and do a show together.
Anyone interested in this or is it just me? 

Cheers!

Re: braille display commands

2012-11-09 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi Mary Ann
I no longer Snow Leopard, so I hope what I am about to say helps. I found the 
commands list under assigning commands in the VoiceOver Utility. I was going to 
paste the list I found into this message, but it didn't work. I don't think the 
commands changed much. I couldn't get the table to come up unless I had the 
braille display connected. 

I have a braille copy of the VoiceOver manual for Sniow Leopard. If you are in 
the States so that I can send it to you easily and if you want it, please 
contact me privately off list and I will send it to you. I have Mountain Lion 
these days so I no longer need it.

Accessing SiriusXM content on the Mac

2012-11-09 Thread ROD SKENE
Hi everyone,
I am trying to get prepared for when Pulsar doesn't work anymore.  I tried to 
use the Sirius XM online player with no luck.  I couldn't even login.  I am 
using click to flash.  I even tried putting my login information into 1Password 
and have the app login for me.  Still no luck. 
Does anyone know how to access Sirius XM radio on the Mac without Pulsar.  I 
wish Pulsar would never go away and keep updating.
Frown,
Rod

Re: What gives with Spotlight and opening documents with the new software update?

2012-11-09 Thread Cheryl Homiak
It may be that somehow your keyboard focus has gotten messed up. Try turning 
voiceover off and on again. Also, are you opening from spotlight with vo-keys 
or just with return. I always open items from spotlight with return only; to 
use vo-keys-space requires that both your voiceover cursor and your keyboard 
cursor be on the menu item and this isn't always the case. Finally, sometimes 
when i hit enter on an item in spotlight I'll hear something that makes it 
sounds like I'm ending up somewhere else: for instance, something about one of 
my menu extras. But when I arrow down in the window i am in, I find that I have 
indeed had Text Edit open the file.

Hth.

Re: I feel dumb, I can't fine "notes" in ML apple mail

2012-11-09 Thread Teresa Cochran
You can also find Notes in M L as a standalone app in the applications folder. 
If you want, you can press command-shift-t to add it to the dock. (You can use 
this shortcut to add any app to the dock once you focus on it in the 
applications folder.)

UltraEdit for the Mac and Voiceover

2012-11-09 Thread Rodney Haynie
I did a quick scan of the archives and found a post back in 2011 from
Michael Busboom asking about this very same topic. But no responses.

I use UltraEdit on my work computer (Windows box), and would like to
use it on my MacBook Air as well.

Has anyone used it on the Mac with Voiceover?

I downloaded the trial, but so far I get a bunch of busy waits, and
can't do too much.

I wanted to give it a good try before removing it from my box.

Any info is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
Rodney

Re: I feel dumb, I can't fine "notes" in ML apple mail

2012-11-09 Thread Jane Jordan
You can find them in the Notes app on your Mac.

You open it up, and there's a table that shows all your notes.  Or you can just 
type in the edit field there and the note will be saved.

 I know I, and others, have been having issues reading .xml files from 
 Bookshare in Safari.  Sometimes, these files will load as blank within 
 Safari.  I decided to load the .xml file in my Internet Explorer on the 
 Windows side of my computer, and it brought up an error that said it could 
 not load properly.  I said to try and find a solution and report the 
 problem to Microsoft, and that fixed the problem.
 
 So I went back to the Mac side and Safari, still totally lost.  The file 
 loaded as blank. I went to the develop menu and emptied the cash, just in 
 case that could make a difference.  It didn't.  Then I saw the option to 
 "Disable local file restriction" which was not checked.  I checked this 
 box, and refreshed the page with cmd-F5, and the book loaded without 
 problems.  I am really happy about this, since I can now read my book in 
 Spanish that I have been trying to for some time.
 
 I hope this is helpful to some others who may have experienced something 
 similar. Please note that the "Develop" menu is not enabled by default, I 
 do not think, but it escapes me at the moment how to enable it.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Harry

Re: Bookshare books and Safari redux

2012-11-09 Thread Harry Hogue
Christine,

It is possible that you will need to restart Safari in order for the menu 
option to show.  Once you have restarted Safari, it should work for you.

Please let me know if this is not clear or doesn't work.

Thanks,

Harry

Re: Bookshare books and Safari redux

2012-11-09 Thread Harry Hogue
Hello Christine,

Here is the recent post I made to the list about opening XML files in Safari.  
Please note to enable the "Develop" menu, go into Safari preferences with 
command+comma, then go to the advanced tab, and you should have an option in 
there to enable the develop menu, which is what you want to do.

Hello, guys,

I know I, and others, have been having issues reading .xml files from Bookshare 
in Safari.  Sometimes, these files will load as blank within Safari.  I decided 
to load the .xml file in my Internet Explorer on the Windows side of my 
computer, and it brought up an error that said it could not load properly.  I 
said to try and find a solution and report the problem to Microsoft, and that 
fixed the problem.

So I went back to the Mac side and Safari, still totally lost.  The file loaded 
as blank. I went to the develop menu and emptied the cash, just in case that 
could make a difference.  It didn't.  Then I saw the option to "Disable local 
file restriction" which was not checked.  I checked this box, and refreshed the 
page with cmd-F5, and the book loaded without problems.  I am really happy 
about this, since I can now read my book in Spanish that I have been trying to 
for some time.

I hope this is helpful to some others who may have experienced something 
similar. Please note that the "Develop" menu is not enabled by default, I do 
not think, but it escapes me at the moment how to enable it.

Thanks,

Harry

You might have the toolbar of the application in focus when the file opens. Try

Is it my imagination, user error, or both? I am growing increasingly frustrated 
this morning with my inability to open documents quickly from Spotlight or from 
the Documents folder. 
Before, I would search for a title or phrase, find it with Spotlight, and open 
it. Alternatively, I would choose a document from the documents folder, open 
it, and no problem.
Now, unless I go into Text Edit, hit open, and use the list to locate my 
document, or type in a title, I get all sorts of nonsense to slog through, 
rather than a quickly opened file.
For example, when using Spotlight, clicking on a file brings up the Spotlight 
preferences menu. When choosing a document in the documents folder, I get a 
tool bar, search, and all the weirdness that comes up lately when I try opening 
a bookshare book in Safari. Can anyone shed any light on this or tell me what

Re: Bookshare books and Safari redux

I did see that, but it said it is for people with reading disabilities and does 
not work well with screen readers. I just want to be able to open the  files in 
my browser and read, as before. There is nothing which indicates this shouldn't 
be possible any longer; in fact, Bookshare specifically states that Mac users 
using a browser should be able to read books without one of their software 
tools. Thank you for your reply.

Re: blind friendly flatbed scanners? any ideas?

2012-11-09 Thread Phil Halton
none that I use have touch screens or menus of any kind. I use just a simple 
Epson Perfection V33. It has four buttons for scanning, copying, etc - none 
of them are necessary and I don't bother with them. All scanner control is 
done through the scanning software such as ABBYY fine reader etc. I just 
plug the scanner into the computer USB port and let the scanning software 
deal with it. Honestly, you don't have to do anything with the scanner 
itself - just the scanning software. There's a difference between the two.

Subject: blind friendly flatbed scanners? any ideas?


OK, I know a scanner is a scanner, but some of them do menus which don't 
talk and make the dear little things more difficult for us to use. I suppose 
a lot of them will have touch screens now.


Another issue I have had with scanners in the past is it being difficult to 
position documents/books for the best results. I suspect improvements in OCR 
may have made this less of a problem than it once was.


Anyway, it must be difficult to judge which scanner to buy, or it wouldn't 
appear as a topic with such regularity. So, any nominations for a current 
model which is reasonably priced, isn't fiddly to use, can handle documents 
at a speed which wouldn't make it off-putting to scan a small book and works 
with Macs would be very welcome indeed. I guess that reasonably priced thing 
rules out all those, what I shall from now on know to refer to as, SARA 
things.


Cheers

 two piano tracks. What am i missing to get this working right? Thanks.

Bookshare books and Safari redux

2012-11-09 Thread Christine Grassman
Just did a software update yesterday and am having trouble opening bookshare 
xml books in Safari, as others described recently. Can't seem to find the 
threads on this -- at least not the ones discussing solutions. Looked on 
bookshare.org, and their support center FAQs link does not appear to be 
working. Could someone write to me off-list with the link to the discussed 
solutions, or send me a quick workaround? Thanks much.
Christine

Hi,

which brings up a on screen keyboard.

Very cool, I need to explore Garage Band at some point.

keyboard as a musical keyboard. You only have one octave at a time, but it lets 
you put together simple melodies or progressions. You can also put custom sound 
effects into the keyboard so you can have it make whatever sounds you want, and 
you can select plenty of other instruments than just a piano, from guitars to 
drums. It's a great feature, I just can't get it to actually work.

Hi Alex,

Which keystroke are you using to turn on musical typing? From what you 
described, it sounds like you brought up the keyboard window instead of turning 
on musical typing. Command-K shows or hides the keyboard window, while 
Command-Shift-K toggles musical typing. Hope this helps.
