Re: Warning about Voice Dream Reader and iOS7
From the release notes, it looks like the update released yesterday (September 16) is the one we were waiting for, it just came way earlier than anticipated.

OFF topic, Skype in mac doesn't find my iSight Camara
Hello all. I don't know if somebody has experienced this, but since some days on, Skype won't let me do video calls or send video messages, because it says that there is no Camara in my devise. I go to preferences, Audio and video, and there it is, No camera found. My mac is an 11 inch Macbook air last generation and the camera is working properly in FaceTime, Photo Booth and quicktime. Any ideas about why Skype doesn't want it? Thank you very much!

Re: Word processor
Hi Alex, I've used markdown a bit. I'll have to explore it in a bit more detail. I do use HTML quite a lot on my website. Anyway, I downloaded Pages and was able to use it, although I was surprised to find that there were separate areas for header, body and footer. I assumed that it would just work like Microsoft Word on Windows where you select the text you want to make a heading and hen apply a heading to it in the menu or with a keyboard shortcut. I'm a bit confused as to how the headers thing works in Pages? Any idea? Thanks for your help.

Re: Word processor
Hello David, Headers and Footers in Pages are fields that appear on every printed page and should not be confused with headings or footnotes. Headings, subheadings, etc are configured in the Styles drawer and you can set up to 8 hotkeys for these. When you save a template, the configured hotkeys are saved with it. I can't explain things with reference to Word as I'm not familiar with Word. Cheers, Anne On 17 Sep 2013, at 14:40, David Eagle onlineea...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi Alex, I've used markdown a bit.

Re: Word processor
Hello David, First of all, when you open a Pages document, go to the View menu and hide everything you can. Also, never use Quick Nav in Pages. Once you have some text in your document, press Cmd-Shift-t to show the styles drawer. Stop interacting with everything and navigate left past the Toolbar to the drawer and interact. Navigate right and interact with the Paragraph styles table. There you should find what you're looking for. You set a hotkey by getting a contextual menu on the style you want and pressing h for hotkey. The submenu offers you the available hotkeys which are F1 to F8.

dropbox on the Mac
I may be the last person on this list to get dropbox. I know there has been a lot of discussion about the app, but since I ran Snow Leopard, I didn't bother with it. I have now installed the application and I can see the icon in the extras menu. However, I can't actually access the menu. What is the work around for this lack of keyboard access? Or do you have to do everything from the web? That would be off putting.

Re: Infovox Lisa
I've never bought a voice, so I can't answer that. I believe you visit this site: http://www.assistiveware.com/product/infovox-ivox You'll download the infoVox control manager and each voice has a 30-day trial. You don't have to demo them all at one time. :) Traci On Sep 17, 2013, at 10:25 AM, Krysti happypuppy...@gmail.com wrote: How do you buy the voices Sent from my iPhone On 2013-09-17, at 2:04 PM, Mary Otten motte...@gmail.com wrote: A few years ago, I bought some infovox voices for my Snow Leopard Mac mini.

Re: Word processor
Hello Ed, I'd forgotten about that oddity. You just do VO-Space to open these menus. Pages is full of anomalies. I hope they bring out a new version of iWork that behaves better. It's about time they did. If you're the kind of person who likes to use standard Mac keyboard short cuts, don't use Ctrl-F2 to go to the Apple menu in Pages as it interprets this as just F2. Luckily, VO-m works fine. Cheers, Anne On 17 Sep 2013, at 23:06, Edward Green ergreen1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Anne, Thanks for the hints you send David on Pages.

Re: Backing Up My iPhone 4S
Exactly, and this is really what I want to do, but when I plug my iPhone into my iMac and go into the devices menu under the file menu, backup is dimmed. I'm not sure how to undim it. Also I thought my Apps would automatically update when I plug my phone into the Mac, but I seem to have 19 updates available. This perplexes me because I keep my Apps up-to-date all the time, and thought that when my phone synced with my computer those updates listed on my computer should disappear. I am so clueless when it comes to this stuff! Just when I think I understand things, I get more confused!

airfoil for Mac
I have been a satisfied user of the AirFoil application from RogueAmoeba software. Now that I have finally upgraded to Mountain Lion and could use the newer version, I'm wondering what advantages it confers on its users, since we have airplay in so many applications these days. For those of you running ML and useing AirFoil, what functionality does it add that you don't get from airplay or the extra functionality in apps like Radium that give you access to the connected stereo or apple tv?

Re: External drive
I use a LaCie 2 terabyte firewire/USB drive. And, I think it's a discontinued model - the latest LaCie's are 3 tb or greater. I use firewire because it is the only mode that allows for booting off the external - you can't boot from a USB drive. I have it split into four partitions, 2 for bootable images of both my MacbookAir and iMac, and 2 partitions for data storage. It's more space than I'll ever probably use. I bought if from the local Apple store. Use disk utility to partition and format it using Mac journaling format if its intended use is strictly for the mac. Otherwise, fat will work for both windows and mac (either fat, or fat32, I can't remember which) On Sep 17, 2013, at 8:37 PM, Agent086b agent0...@bigpond.com wrote: Hi, I am looking for an external drive to backup my Mac.

Re: External drive
FAT32 should work. Remember, though, that you can't store files greater than 4gb on a FAT32 formatted drive. Stick to the Mac format if possible, or you might run into problems with huge files. Just something to keep in mind. On Sep 17, 2013, at 11:05 PM, Phil Halton philh...@gmail.com wrote: I use a LaCie 2 terabyte firewire/USB drive.
