Hello Anita
then it's the Macbook Pro with non-retina display. This is the only choice now 
if you want one with an optical drive built in.

Re: Announcing Early Access to AirBraille, a New Transcription Tool for the Mac

[Ray Foret Jr]

So, let me see if I got this straight now.  You upload your document to a 
remote server somewhere and that server converts it in to embosable Braille and 
sends it back to you as a .brl file?

Announcing Early Access to AirBraille, a New Transcription Tool for the Mac

[Alex Jurgensen]

Hi All,

We would like to announce the pending availability of AirBraille, a new Braille 
Transcription suite for the Mac. Furthermore, we will be giving away 6-month 
subscriptions to the software, in exchange for a donation to our Indiegogo 
campaign.

What is AirBraille?

AirBraille is an automated tool for producing Braille output for embossers from 
the documents already on your computer. It works with most embossers, though 
some may require a USB to Parallel/Serial adapter, depending on the embosser.

How Do I Get Early Access?

To get your very own 6-month VIP early access, simply make a small donation to 
our Indiegogo campaign, by following the link below. We'll post details on how 
to retrieve your access code on our website at: www.campbowen.ca

Follow this link to start the process:

http://igg.me/at/campbowen2013/x/1658584

If anyone signs up for early access before May 10, 2013 will get access to the 
Mac edition of AirBraille beginning in June of this year. It is our way of 
saying thank you for supporting the Camp Bowen summer camp program for the 
visually impaired.

Everyone else can subscribe to the paid service, beginning in July.

We'd love to get your feedback.

Thank you in advance for your support and enjoy the software.

Yours Truly,
The Camp Bowen Team,

Explore Camp Bowen online at: http://www.campbowen.ca/

MacBook Inquiries.

[anita]

Hi List,
I'm getting a MacBook, but am not sure how to choose the best one. Having a 
CD slot is essential.  This may limit my selections/choices, buthaving a laptop 
is what I want, and just wanna get the most for my money. 
Thanks for any info.

Re: multiple versions of Stanza on my Mac

[John Panarese]

   I see that too in the context menu.  I don't know why that happens.  There 
is supposedly a way to clear that, but of course, I can't find the article I 
thought I had bookmarked that talks about it.

Re: Best office/productivity suite

[Mike Arrigo]

I think the iwork suite will open Microsoft Office documents, but not 
sure if all features are retained. Office will never be accessible on 
the Mac unless Microsoft makes some changes, and uses the accessibility 
interfaces Apple has provided. Many people blame Voiceover because 
Microsoft Office doesn't work, but really it's the developer's fault. 
Apple has clearly documented what is needed to make applications 
accessible, but it's a developer's fault if they don't use it.

Original message:
And the one problem I see with the Mac being adopted at more work 
places is, that so many people/worksites still use Microsoft office, 
which Microsoft has continued to keep inaccessible.

Subject: Best office/productivity suite




Hi all,
I'm a relatively recent full-time Mac adopter (< 1 year), though I've 
had experiences with earlier iterations of OSX. I'm curious as to what 
office/productivity suites you all find to be the most usable with VO. 
The two options that immediately come to mind are Apple's iWork and OpenOffice.
Currently I mainly do word processing using Pages, and from what I'm 
gathering, it's not so much inaccessible as it is convoluted. There 
seems to be somewhat of a learning curve, and the procedures for doing 
certain tasks aren't necessarily obvious. For example, the handling of 
tables in Word docs.
I mainly purchased iWork due to completely forgetting about OpenOffice, 
and I haven't looked back. Is something like OpenOffice worth 
exploring? Does it provide more in the way of accessibility or ease of use?
There are likely a ton of other application suites beyond the ones I 
mentioned,, thus feel free to provide me with alternatives if you 
believe they work better.

Thanks in advance

multiple versions of Stanza on my Mac

[Ricardo Walker]

Hello list,

I've noticed recently while opening a document, my Mac is reporting I have 3 
versions of Stanza.  I'm not really sure what to do about this.  In my 
applications folder, there is only 1 copy of Stanza.  But, if I bring up the 
context menu on a text document, go to the open with submenu, I am presented 
with multiple versions of Stanza.  So far, I've gone to my user 
library/preferences and erased all Stanza plists I could find.  No dice.  Any 
other suggestions?

Thanks.

cycle region and selecting tracks in Garage Band

[Katie Zodrow]

Hi, everyone. So far, I've been having fun learning to use Garage Band. I've 
been creating a project with this software the past few days this week. I have 
50 bars of drum tracks recorded so far in my song. About half the measures are 
drum loops. For the last section of the piece, I wanted to select the first 24 
bars of the song and wanted to know how to do that without moving the regions. 
There are 3 different drum loops I used for this 2 of these are each 8 measures 
long, 1 is 6 measures long and the last loop is 2 measures long. How do I 
select these tracks?
I also recorded a shaker track on the keyboard without turning on the cycle 
region. I want to record another drum track on the keyboard and overdub parts 
on the same track for each drum part I'm playing along with that shaker part. 
Since I didn't turn cycle region on before, How do I do this? I don't want to 
have cycle region start playing from the beginning of the song.
Thanks for your help.
Katie

Re: mp3 to text?

[Karen Lewellen]

I appreciate very much what you provided here, but suspect my question was 
not clear.
The content does not exist as text, but as sound.  the desire is to take 
the human voice speaking and convert this into text.

Does that make more sense?

I have spoken with the Accessibility team a bit.  Here is some background.  The 
Accessibility team as we know it currently is actually like a tier 2 support 
level.  These are the guys who have to know everything.  One thing nneded to be 
suggested to Apple is that they need to hire blind people as accessibility 
experts this would help move tickets up?  I actually asked about blind people 
being on the accessibility team and there are none so here is our time to stomp 
our feet so to speak and get blind people jobs as well as get people in the 
Accessibility department who uses these features every day.  You may give 
feedback at:

Re: Best office/productivity suite

Hi there
Perhaps I missed something here but is Sarah still on the list? Microsoft was 
working on making office  accessible, at least that's what I thought.

Re: Mac & speaker system

[Traci]

Hi, it is for the folks that listen to Pandora for free via a mobile device.  
You now get 40 hours of free listening, then the 2 choices are, pay 99¢ to 
continue listening with ads, or pay the $3.99 for Pandora1.

Re: multiple sound outputs

[Traci]

Woo Hoo!  That worked brilliantly!

Here's another question ;)

My bluetooth speaker will only be connected occasionally, is there a way to 
bypass the bluetooth error that pops up?

I've done some reading on the audio/midi settings, but so far, I don't 
understand it.  Lol!

As a side note, it was pretty flippin cool to have Pandora via my little jam 
jar speaker, and voiceover through my headset.  Thanks for that!

Re: Best office/productivity suite

And the one problem I see with the Mac being adopted at more work places is, 
that so many people/worksites still use Microsoft office, which Microsoft has 
continued to keep inaccessible.

Hi all,
I'm a relatively recent full-time Mac adopter (< 1 year), though I've had 
experiences with earlier iterations of OSX. I'm curious as to what 
office/productivity suites you all find to be the most usable with VO. The 
two options that immediately come to mind are Apple's iWork and OpenOffice.
Currently I mainly do word processing using Pages, and from what I'm 
gathering, it's not so much inaccessible as it is convoluted. There seems to 
be somewhat of a learning curve, and the procedures for doing certain tasks 
aren't necessarily obvious. For example, the handling of tables in Word 
docs.
I mainly purchased iWork due to completely forgetting about OpenOffice, and 
I haven't looked back. Is something like OpenOffice worth exploring? Does it 
provide more in the way of accessibility or ease of use?
There are likely a ton of other application suites beyond the ones I 
mentioned,, thus feel free to provide me with alternatives if you believe 
they work better.

Thanks in advance

Re: mp3 to text?

[Richard Ring]

You could do in Windows using Dragon Dictate for Windows. You'd have to go 
through some hoops, but you could probably do it using Dragon Dictate for the 
Mac to perform voice recognition on an MP3 file. I can't imagine what would 
make it worth that much trouble, though!

Thank you, but I have files uploaded---my VM Fusion dmg file that I need 
to download back to my mac that I reset it.  I can hightlight the file 
so it shows selected, but shft-vo-m does not bring up the context menu, 
and I am unable to tell how to download it back to my mac with the wizard.

Re: mp3 to text?

[Red.Falcon]

Ok if this is a spoken track and is not to long [I.E. a novel] and you have the 
time!
You could use copy last phrase to clipboard command!
And depending on how long the file is you might have to do a bit at a time!
And of course paste into a textedit document as you go!
The command is VO+shift+c [I've got a keyboard commander shortcut for this] 
Right option+c to do that!

Re: Any way to get iTunes to show the old classic view with genres, artists and album titles above the list of songs for a chosen album?

[Kevin Gibbs]

Teresa,

thanks for writing.  the view I'm describing was available even in the sidebar 
was showing.  Ideally, I'd like both this classic  new and the Sidebar to be 
present.  

What I'm trying to utterly remove is the presence of album art in my display.  
thanks,
Kevin

Teresa,
I did as you suggested and it worked.  then, I pressed Command Option S to 
reveal the Sidebar once more and all was exactly as I had hoped.  thanks so 
much for helping out.

Best office/productivity suite

[Christopher Kchao]

Hi all,
I'm a relatively recent full-time Mac adopter (< 1 year), though I've had 
experiences with earlier iterations of OSX. I'm curious as to what 
office/productivity suites you all find to be the most usable with VO. The two 
options that immediately come to mind are Apple's iWork and OpenOffice.
Currently I mainly do word processing using Pages, and from what I'm gathering, 
it's not so much inaccessible as it is convoluted. There seems to be somewhat 
of a learning curve, and the procedures for doing certain tasks aren't 
necessarily obvious. For example, the handling of tables in Word docs.
I mainly purchased iWork due to completely forgetting about OpenOffice, and I 
haven't looked back. Is something like OpenOffice worth exploring? Does it 
provide more in the way of accessibility or ease of use?
There are likely a ton of other application suites beyond the ones I 
mentioned,, thus feel free to provide me with alternatives if you believe they 
work better.
Thanks in advance

Re: Mac & speaker system

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

Would it not be faster to do a google search for "pandora limits mobile 
streaming", than to wait for the person to respond?  I'm sure you would get a 
bunch of results, and you wouldn't have to wait. :).  Instant gratification.

Re: mp3 to text?

[erik burggraaf]

In mountain lion, go to system preferences, dictation and speech.  There you 
can choose the voice and the rate but nothing else for some reason.

I'm all for giving ITunes the ax, but honestly, this is so easy, even iTunes 
can't mess it up.  I'm sure you could get something like text aloud mp3 for the 
mac if you paid for it, but this will do essentially what's needed.

Re: mp3 to text?

[Ray Foret Jr]

CAn you select the voice and speed you want text to be read?  And, suppose you 
don't want to fiddle with ITunes at all?  Is there another app which can do the 
same thing?

Re: mp3 to text?

[erik burggraaf]

Just highlight the text you want, be it a sentence or an entire book.  press 
control option shift M. Arrow up the menu to add to itunes as a spoken trak and 
press enter.  In the case of a whole book, go for coffee.

Now, I think itunes will pop up and start reading to you when it's done 
converting.  you can then transfer the file to your I device or other mp3 
listening thing you have laying around the house.

Hope this helps,

Erik Burggraaf

  Hey there listers, 
  This is slightly off topic, but very important. There is a malicious virus 
targeting Mac. Their is a window which pops up telling you to download 
something, which you should never do unless its something you specifically want 
to download. I'm including a link to a story about the virus. Be careful and 
have a good day. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AppAdvice/~3/QSLiH3lYyCQ/

I have a Klipsche speaker system that has a three millimeter jack in the 
back. Is it safe to plug my mac into this.


Pandora is limiting mobile streaming, so I figured this is a way around 
it. Listening via my Mac and piano pub.


Thanks for the help,
Traci
