Re: VoiceOver and HTMLVoiceOver Getting Started Table of Contents
Thanks for that, but what I'm looking for are resources on coding HTML for VoiceOver, not reading HTML with VoiceOver. I'm fine with using VoiceOver, but the HTML code I have written doesn't seem to be read by VoiceOver all that well. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Need some pointers on using Dropbox
Just a little personal tip. I like to create sub folders within my Dropbox folder (which, as Alex says, is located in your home user folder). Then, I add these subfolders to the Finder sidebar and/or my doc, and create aliases on my Desktop. Adding them to the Finder sidebar in particular makes it easy to save files into my Dropbox or its subfolders and access files from within it. Correctly set up, it doesn't even feel like a separate application anymore, but rather just like the regular ol' finder, only with magical syncing abilities. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: frustrated with mail
Just to ad a little to Alexes explanation. I agree that standard view is the way to go. However, I collapse the preview pane as otherwise messages are marked as read as soon as you put focus on them, even if you haven't actually read them. However, if this doesn't bother you then having the preview pane open should be no problem. I disagree, however, about the show related option. I like having Mail group related messages together in a conversation thread. Makes it much easier to read messages and their replies. VoiceOver only annnounces a number and collapsed if there is indeed more than one message in the conversation. You can press right arrow to expand the thread and view the individual messages, or just press command o to open the conversation. Or, of course, just arrow up or down to avoid them, or delete to trash the whole conversation. I currently use five accounts and it works great. I find Take Control of Apple Mail a great book so that's a good start you're reading it. having multiple accounts will, as Alex says, give you multiple accounts listed under inbox, drafts, sent, trash, archive, and VIPs. You can view these individually or view the commbined folder. These special mailboxes are collapsable, so you can simply view the combined route level or expand them to view the individual accounts below. You will also have in your mailbox list collapsable entries for each of your accounts, with all their custom folders within once you expand them. Again, as Alex said, adding these to your Favourites Bar is a great idea. Another way to do it is as follows: • Ensure your mailbox list is visible. You can toggle it with COMMAND-SHIFT-M. • Ensure you are in full screen mode. • Navigate to the mailbox in the mailbox list you wish to add to your Favourites Bar. • Press VO-Comma to mark it for drag and drop. • Navigate to the Favourites Bar and press VO-SHIFT-COMMA to drop it before the item under the VoiceOver curser, or VO-SHIFT-PERIOD to drop it after the item under the VoiceOver curser. You can then use COMMAND-numbers 1 through 9 to view the corresponding mailbox in your Favourites BAr, or COMMAND-CONTROL-nunbers 1 through 9 to move the currently selected message to the corresponding mailbox in your Favourites Bar. COMMAND-CONTROL-A is, of course, to archive the selected message. You can do the following to remove mailboxes from your Favourites Bar: •Make sure your trackpad commander is off, by pressing the VO-keys and rotating two fingers counter clockwise. • Navigating to the mailbox in the Favourites BAr you wish to remove. • Routing the mouse to the VO curser with VO-COMMAND-F5. • Check that the mouse is over the mailbox you wish to remove by pressing VO-F5. If it's not, repete the previous step. • Then, click down on your trackpad and drag a finger from the top right to the bottom left. One other tip is that you don't need to interact with the table of messages. By simply focusing on it with QuickNav off, you can arrow up and down between the messages. Hope some of this helps a little. Best thing is to read Take Control of Apple Mail, replacing any clicking or dragging and dropping with the relevant VoiceOver keystrokes, and experimenting a bit yourself.

Hi all, I'm still having a lot of trouble reading math symbols properly with voice over, especially when they are typed in a stream of characters.

Re: VoiceOver and HTML
What I have noticed is, if the link (such as a graphic link) contains a title attribute, the filename and extension is read out. This can sometimes override the alt tag. I avoid using the title attribute anyway, as JAWS does not read them by default. I would suggest writing to Apple accessibility and pointing this bug out to them, and also raising it as a bug on their bug report website. I have done this in the past, but the bug is still there.

If you have VMWare fusion set up correctly, and you're in your VM, you'll want to press ctrl+commmand and that will relinquish command to the Mac. I would either command tab out of VMware and then turn on VO or do your stuff you need to do with vmware i.e. setup etc. Then when you want to go back into your virtual machine, press an arrow or something or tab, and you should be back there. I think there is a keyboard shortcut to grab keyboard focus to the VM regardless, but I don't remember it because usually it just works if you are in the focus of your actual virtual machine. There's no real need to turn off voiceover, but unless you have keyboard mappings set to not map osx keystrokes, and if you don't use control alt much (if you are using Windows), I'd turn it off.

Re: Size of albums playlists in iTunes
Hi Traci, As Chris pointed out, the status bar that displays the number of items, playing time, and size of your selected playlists at the end of the iTunes window is turned off by default under iTunes 11, and you need to turn on showing that again either by navigating to the View menu on the iTunes menu bar and selecting Show Status Bar, or by using the iTunes 11 keyboard shortcut of Command-Slash for toggling the status bar between show and hide. Another way to control the size of a playlist that syncs to your shuffle or other device is to use the smart playlist option of limiting the size of your playlist to a specific size. For example, let's say that you want to create a smart playlist with up to 1.8 GB of music content that you want to transfer to your iPod Shuffle. You can use the Command-Option-N keyboard shortcut to create a new smart playlist, navigate to rules section and interact to set up rules for the content you want to include, like Artist is or Album is and then fill in the name in the text box. Remember that you can set the pop up buttons for any of your rule selections to items like Artist, Album, or Genre, and that once you create a second rule by pressing the add button at the end of your first rule, you can navigate back to set the pop up button that specifies whether you want to match all of the rules or any of the rules. Once you have set up a few rules for what you want included in your playlist, you can stop interacting with the rules section and navigate to the check box that allows you to limit the content of your playlist in terms of number of items, time, or size (in MB or GB, according to the selected pop up button) and by selected criteria, such as album, artist, highest (or lowest) rating, most (or least) often played, most (or least) recently added to your library, etc. Then you can go view the resulting playlist content and decide whether you want to modify any of the rules for content or selection. Smart playlists are convenient ways to create playlists to specific criteria -- like making a workout playlist that is exactly 30 minutes long. If you like the selection criteria, and want to freeze the selections, just do a Command-A to select all the items in the smart playlist and then do a Command-Shift-N to create a new playlist from your selection and assign it a name. That will keep the selection criteria from changing. However, if you always want your playlist to give preference to the most recently added content of your library, for example, using a smart playlist can continuously update its contents to meet meet such criteria. You could make one of the rules be that only songs you had played a minimum of 20 times be included included in your smart playlist, and that rule would update over time. Just some alternate suggestions for creating playlists. The ability to limit smart playlists by size, and to specify preferred criteria for cutting things down to match this, can be very handy for deciding what you want synced to a device. HTH.

Re: Facebook Chat with VoiceOver
Hi, Brian, The only time you use the to field is with your IPhone IMessages. With Facebook buddies, you find them in a list and then either press enter or check the text chat checkbox.

Thanks again On Feb 27, 8:59 pm, Israel Antonio sexyi...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Harry, I can't give any suggestion on FB or chat clients however, I use Voiceover exclusively with FB chat on the main site and it works well. It helps that each time someone starts a chat with you, you'll receive an audio signal. If you move VO focus away from the FB chat area and you're reading or writing something at a different part of the site, you'll always receive said audio cue letting you know person has responded to your chat message or that someone has begun a new chat with you. For the most part, friends start chats with me. It use to be easier to start chats prior to about a year ago when there was a list of every person online at the time. Each link was labeled a friend's name and you could simply clicked to activate any link you wanted within the list and a new chat window would open up right there with an option just below, I seem to recall, for when you wish to close the window. Nowadays, I still see the list of links labels Friends On Chat however to whom each link corresponds is not labeled. However, just before the list begins, there is a link which reads Show Sidebar. If you activate that link and move VO to the bottom of the FB page, there you can find a list of links with your friends who are online or whether they are idol but still logged in. You can move through this clearly labeled list and pick the friend with whom you wish to chat. When you click on the name, a new chat window opens and you can begin to chat. I hope that helps should you wish to chat on the main FB site with Voiceover.

They may not be able to see it easily, though I have almost always found that there is no issue in seeing the text, and it may be too much of a pain to walk through a fix while pointing a camera at the screen, but the point is just to see whether it's a quick fix which can be managed remotely or if there's something more serious wrong.

Re: Need some pointers on using Dropbox
OK Jamie. First thing's first. If you got signed in, what happens if you go into your home directory in the Finder at this point, then look for a folder called Dropbox? Do you see your stuff inside there? If not you might have to uninstall and reinstall Dropbox. There's a little trick to getting the installer to be accessible the whole way through, but if you're signed in as you say, it's sounds like you're already up and running for the most part. I can talk you through the reinstallation if be needed, if you'd like either over e-mail, or over the phone.

Re: Crashing Chrome with Chromevox
Hi, Are you sure that ChromeVox is really crashing or are you just outside the HTML area that ChromeVox reads? Try pressing cmd-n to make Chrome open a new window to determine if things begin speaking again. Also, strange things can occur when you have both ChromeVox and VO running at the same time. Google recommends that you turn off VO when using ChromeVox. It's not consistently an issue but seems to cause erratic behaviour when both engines are running. I was just at a Google Apps Summit Monday and Tuesday of this week where I let some Googlers know about some of the limitations of Chrome. I did, though, find that some of the limitations are just me. I'm so used to VO that navigating with ChromeVox is different than what I'm accustomed to. Too many things for this old brain to remember with VO, ChromeVox, JAWS, Wife's name, all that sort of thing. Anyway, if you really want to remove ChromeVox, make sure that VO is on, go up to the Window menu and choose Extensions. Use Vox keys to navigate through whatever extensions you've added to Chrome and right beside the Enable checkbox for ChromeVox Extension will be the Remove from Chrome button. HTH. Later...

Re: Crashing Chrome with Chromevox
Hi guys. I've noticed that it also depends on what voice you're using with Chromevox. One thing's for sure, I'd stay away from using the Nuance voices with it because it's like Eloquence on the PC when they encounter words it doesn't like. Like for example, if somebody says Sent from my iPod at the end of a message, it crashes. Also it does this for any me.com address it reads. So yeah, if you are using the Nuance voices with Chromevox, of course Chrome will crash.

wireless controls that support multiple emulaters for the mac.
I've got emulators for about 4 different games that I play on occasion on my mac, and would love to know if there's a wireless control I could get that would be easy to configure to work with all of these so I don't have to try to memorize different keystrokes for different programs/end up wearing out my computer's keyboard prematurely, depending on what game I end up playing. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? A friend of mine told me about a logitech one I think it was, that I made the mistake of buying a while back, but I think this person was mistakened about it being wireless, because it had a cord, and was not only not speech-friendly, but was a pain in the kneck to configure, and I made the mistake of buying 2 of them, which another friend of mine, who's really good with computers, never could get to configure either after playing around with it half the day and later taking it home with him. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Hello all, from the below message, do I understand that you need some other screen reader to use Chroam? Max.

Re: Screen readers with Chroam was Crashing Chrome with Chromevox
Hi, Sort of. In Google Chrome, there is n extension that Google has designed called ChromeVox that works more or less as a screenreader. It only works within the HTML area of Chrome though and does not access the MacOS menu items nor the ToolBars and such. ChromeVox is a part of the Chrome OS and works on Macs, Windows and on their own ChromeBooks. In various situations, ChromeVox handles certain HTML elements better than VO with Safari but not always. It is especially useful if you are a Google Apps user. HTH. Later...

Re: Crashing Chrome with Chromevox
Hi, It is really crashing. A Chrome quit unexpectedly message is displayed and a crash report is created. This seems to be happening whether VoiceOver is on or not. I am using Samantha as my Mac system voice and so that is what chromevox is using. Do you all think that Samantha is the problem? Perhaps I will temporarily change the system voice back to Alex and see if that solves the problem. I must say that I am not impressed at this point.

Re: Crashing Chrome with Chromevox
Hi, Yes, Samantha is likely your problem. I switched my System Voice to Samantha and experienced the same issue as you. With Alex, Chrome has seldom had any issues and does actually behave better for some elements on certain web-pages. In fact, Chrome is easier to use within some of Apple's own Knowledge Base articles compared to Safari. Later...

Re: VoiceOver and HTMLVoiceOver Getting Started Table of Contents
Thanks, Bill. I've learnt HTML already. Indeed, HTML is HTML, but different screen readers read it differently. For instance, for links, does it read the on-screen text of the link first, its URL (href attribute), its title attribute or the alt text attribute? JAWS is set to read the on-screen text by default. I've noticed VoiceOver often reads file extentions on links such as PHP, ASP and HTM, which makes me think it's reading the href attribute rather than the on-screen text. JAWS, for example, allows the user to choose whether they want JAWs to read out the URL of an image, or its alt text, or both, and so on. Does VoiceOver treat tables used for layout purposes as tables or does it ignore them like JAWS? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: VoiceOver and HTML
Hi Chris. I've had VoiceOver announce the file names and extentions even for links without title attributes. Do you think this is a bug, or is it a feature? That is, is this just the way VoiceOver reads HTML? Maybe I just need to do some experimenting myself to determine how this is working. Also, what are the HTML tags/attributes for setting landmarks? Phil, my appologies. I think I called you Bill in a previous email. Sorry. Can I blame Karen for simply not pronouncing your name properly, or perhaps I was just not listening carefully enough. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Announcment of line indentation
All, I thought I had seen how to get VO to indicate the level of indentation for a line as it is read. I cannot seem to find the setting. I need something similar to the JAWS function, which indicates the number of white space characters, and then reads the line of text. Jaws actually reads the indentation only when it changes. This function is especially useful for source code editing… Is this possible with VO?

Re: special mathematical symbols and the rest
Hi Again, I know these three methods, but i'm looking for a better solution to read the characters without either setting pronounciation to all nor read character by character. Say i have the greek small symbol tau, if it's connected to any other character it won't read on any setting other than read all. Is therre any way to bind for instance the tau symbol to a tau word, like an alias of the word so that next time voice over passes the line, it identifies the symbol as a word.
