Re: Voice Updates in the mac App Store
Has anyone had problems with the new Daniel voice? After my Mac reporting that version 3.5 of the voice was available, I installed. nOW Daniel is silent. I tried unchecking the voice in Voice over utility in the hope it would uninstall in case it was corrupt. No joy there, so I went into the system folder and removed the Daniel voice (and most of the old novelty voices too). I then went back into the VO utility and selected Daniel again. The voice started downloading. Still no success though, as every time I try to select the voice or even preview the voice, there is no sound. I am back to using Alex, but I must admit I quite like the two new American female voices also. I took a look at Oliver, the new British male voice, but was not impressed. . Has Tom gone? I hope someone can suggest a solution to my Daniel problem. I will fire off an email to Apple.

Re: Regarding clean installs…
If you have some corrupted system files or preferences somewhere, these might get copied over in the normal upgrade process. If, however, you do a clean install, you'll have a clean, pristine operating system free from those corrupted files. This might resolve problems you were previously experiencing. So long as your system is running well before upgrading, therefore, there's little benefit to a clean install. In fact, it's an inconvenience. If you've got plenty of time to set up a new OS, though, a clean install might also help you reduce clutter as you could only install apps that you actually use. I'm sure like most of us you have apps and things you once installed but which you never really use.= On 24/10/2013, at 12:35 PM, Jessica Moss junglebookfa...@gmail.com wrote: What's the advantage of needing to do that as opposed to simply doing an upgrade?

I've copied the command but not the URL: Basically, use disk utility to format a 8Gb or higher USB stick or SD. It has just worked for me. I copied the command from the file and pasted it in a terminal. I'm just about to install cleanly. It worked for me but do it at your own risk. Then: Run this in terminal and wait about 20 minutes: sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction You should see something like this: Erasing Disk: 0%... 10%... 20%... 100%...

Ever since Siri could understand punctuation, I think sometime back in iOS 5, I used the word full stop and Siri understood this fine. After upgrading to iOS 7 I switched Siri's language to US English as I wanted the awesome new voices. To my surprise, Siri still knew what I meant when I said full stop. I thought I might need to start saying period or using other American words or phrases but Siri seems to react perfectly fine to my Australian English. Although this is great for me, it does seem difficult for Americans if Siri can't understand what period means in context. I'm wondering, does it depend on your phone's language setting rather than Siri' language setting? Also, even when it was working, how would it react when you used the word period in other contexts? For instance, The great depression was a difficult period for many people, or What class do you have next period?

Re: can't download Mavericks...
Hello, Apple have changed the way in which these installers work. A simple web search will tell you this. If the USB stick is Untitled and been formatted in Mac's OS X format then in a terminal type: sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction You should see something like this: Erasing Disk: 0%... 10%... 20%... 100%... Copying installer files to disk... Copy complete. Making disk bootable... Copying boot files... Copy complete. Done.

Re: Number of Messages in mail Conversation as the first column?
My sighted husband tried with the physical mouse as well as the trackpad, and it won’t budge. I’ve pretty much resigned myself to it, and I’m paying a lot more attention to subject lines as a result. :) There’s one useful thing, though. If you interact with the message info in the message list, you can not only move within each column, i.e. subjects, dates, etc., but to the last column, which contains the message number.

When I said “period” in other contexts before this update, it would put the symbol in, and I had to write in the word. Now it never puts in the symbol unless I say “full stop”.

Re: Number of Messages in mail Conversation as the first column?
One other thing I have discovered is that for a read message, the date appears before the subject. If the messages not read, but it appears after the subject. It is not perfect, but it at least gives me an indication of red status.

I’ve pretty much resigned myself to it, and I’m paying a lot more attention to subject lines as a result. :) There’s one useful thing, though. If you interact with the message info in the message list, you can not only move within each column, i.e. subjects, dates, etc., but to the last column, which contains the message number.

Group signup mystery solved?
I keep getting emails from folks that they can't sign up for the mailing list so I took a poke around in the settings. There was one called Join the Group which was set to Only Invited Guests. Not sure exactly what that means but it didn't seem right. I have now changed it to Anyone can ask, which sounds more like what we wanted. The only other option was Public which is just asking for spam. Hopefully that is the root cause of the signup issues. Not sure how that got changed since it used to work fine. I have been manually adding folks as the requests/complaints came in but we shouldn't be having folks jumping through hoops like that.

Re: Prospective subscribers not allowed to join this group
Please forward the email address of anyone you know who has tried and failed to join the group to me. I'll get them set up. As I mentioned in an earlier message it seems that one of the settings for joining got changed to 'invite only' and I have now put this back. It's still not a public group where anyone can post but at least the join request stuff should now work again. I'm not really the moderator as far as content, I'm just trying to help out Cara with handling the registration stuff. I suspect public message boards don't require you to have logged in to gain the Subscribe button but then they require a lot more diligence from the moderators to weed out spam.

Re: a showstopper in the latest safari update
A lot of the busy issues were fixed in mountain lion, you may want to update your operating system. Original message: The new Safari 6.1 went on my Lion system today and now some voiceover issues have developed. 1. Web Item rotor no longer shows all headers on a google search, or on some other pages. 2. on any web page where there is a tweet text field, any attempt to enter text there results in the browser going busy and forcing a force-quit. also, when scrolling through google searches, the website info on each search gets repeated at each new element (be it text, links or headers). there is also inconsistent behavior when trying to open links using the VO+shift+M context menu. SOme options that should show up (like open link in new tab or page) don't more than half the time. Since I am totally blind and have to depend on both voiceover and Safari to work properly, when they don't, I am basically left trying to get both to work again. In one case, installing an add-on to solve captchas resulted in voiceover completely crashing and then refusing to restart on CMD-F5. THese issues are entirely unacceptable and are required to be fixed immediately. As an aside, similar issues crop up with google-chrome with the same frequency. Don't even ask about FireFox (it works barely some of the time). You folks need to repair this. I am also copying this to 2 related mailing lists.

Gmail Issues in Mavericks, Pretty Major, Folks
Someone brought up Gmail issues yesterday. There are definite snafus with Gmail and Mail. basically, the “all mail” folder gets placed in the archive folder, and it’s necessary to have it enabled in Gmail settings on the website. Depending on how much you use Gmail, this may or may not be a show-stopper. If you switch to Pop mail, you can no longer use your labels from the Gmail site, and you’d have to set up local rules for filtering messages in apple Mail. Also, you can’t move Gmail folders in apple mail. Since I use Gmail for about 20 mailing lists I’m on, and I sync my mail with my iPod, I’m going to try not to ditch Gmail for now. Whatever you do, do *not* go into the “all mail” folder on your devices if you sync with them, because a huge bog-down will possibly ensue. For example, I have something like twenty thousand messages in my ‘all mail” folder. you can find stuff about this issue when you, uh, google it, so just thought I’d clarify things just a tad. I hope it’s clarified, at any rate. :) HtH, Teresa The Golden Age of science fiction is twelve.--Pete Graham -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

reading with ibooks on mavericks?
Hi everyone, I updated to mavericks yesterday and am happy with it mostly (mail especially works better). I tried ibooks and although i can find some books in the store (by entering a search keyword) buy them and open them reading the actual book still seems a bit difficult. I can do it with the item chooser but then i cant do anything else. Can you read it normally and how can you turn pages?

Reading iBooks on Mac with Mavericks
I've found that if you have your trackpad turned on, and you have it set up so that it works with voiceover instead of having it like a normal mouse, if you swipe down on the track pad with two fingers, it'll read one whole chapter of an ibook at a time. Then to go to the next chapter, you press Command-Shift-Right arrow. Also, you can go Vo-M for menu, and then right arow to the go menu, and then arrow down until you hear go to next chapter and enter on it, and it'll do it too. As far as if you only want to read a single page at a time, you would access it just like you do with pages by interacting with the scroll area, and then it'll say epub.1 or something, and each epub thing like that, I think is another page, so then you just interact with those, and you can then swipe down with two fingers with them and get VoiceOver to read the whole thing or VO-right arrow so it reads line by line I think. I've also found out that let's say you're on Skype, but you want to read a book while you're waiting to receive a message from someone, you can press control to pause VoiceOver from reading the ibook, then switch to your Skype app, or whatever, to do whateveryou want, and then go back to the ibooks app and press control and it'll continue reading to teh end of that page. Then you put two fingers at teh top of your trackpad and swipe down, and it'll continue reading. I don't know if there's a say all or read-to-the-bottom-of-the-document command for VoiceOver using the keyboard, so I don't know how this would work with iMacs, or Macs that don't have a trackPad. I don't know if you could use a normal mouse for these things. Hope this helps! As for mail and attachments, and saving attachments in emails, I don't know how to do that either, so if someone could let me know, that would be great, cause I do this a lot since I'm in school, so I can get people to send me stuff to braille out and stuff like that, so if osmeone could let me know, that would be great. You can even jsut email me, and then that way I don't have to scroll through the entire Mac Visionarries email to find out jsut taht one thing. THanks! God Bless!!!

Ever since Siri could understand punctuation, I think sometime back in iOS 5, I used the word full stop and Siri understood this fine. After upgrading to iOS 7 I switched Siri's language to US English as I wanted the awesome new voices. To my surprise, Siri still knew what I meant when I said full stop. I thought I might need to start saying period or using other American words or phrases but Siri seems to react perfectly fine to my Australian English. Although this is great for me, it does seem difficult for Americans if Siri can't understand what period means in context. I'm wondering, does it depend on your phone's language setting rather than Siri' language setting? Also, even when it was working, how would it react when you used the word period in other contexts? For instance, The great depression was a difficult period for many people, or What class do you have next period?

Since I am totally blind and have to depend on both voiceover and Safari to work properly, when they don't, I am basically left trying to get both to work again. In one case, installing an add-on to solve captchas resulted in voiceover completely crashing and then refusing to restart on CMD-F5.

Re: Voice Updates in the mac App Store
Hi Chris. Sounds like a restart is in order for you. I ran into the same problem as you did and I found that a simple reboot did the trick. Hope that solves your problem, and talking about Daniel, I wasn’t impressed with his HQ voice sample. It sounds like he made him more robotic than ever.

Re: email problems
Hi Alia, Sorry it didn’t work, Turning it off in Notification Centre solved it for me. If you’re running Mountain Lion or higher, the other thing you could try is to go into Mail, Preferences, General, and limit notifications to VIPs (it’s set to Inbox only by default). You could then simply not add anyone to your VIP list and you shouldn’t get any notifications. However, this obviously won’t work if you use your VIP list. Hope that works.

successful Braille tweak
Hi all. I do a lot of reading and writing of .brf’s directly from the display, either music or my own brand of literary Braille which is at about grade seven these days. The dot 456 combination is always tricky since it gets represented in computer Braille for embossing as an underscore, but received wisdom seems to be that underscore should get dot 7 added to it for refreshable Braille. On the Mac it was particularly annoying because if you forget and just hit dot456, you end up entering a delete character, as I’m sure others have found out to their cost. Anyway, this morning I had enough and tracked down the US 8 dot Braille table, which I’d always assumed would be embedded in a Duxbury .btb file. As it happens it’s just a plain plist in /System/Library/ScreenReader/BrailleTables/Duxbury.brailletable/Contents/Resources. After swapping the entries for 456 and 4567, I can now directly enter an underscore with 456 and so can write brf files in my editor of choice. Other people might have already discovered this, but as it’s a fix for what a Braille nerd like me found an annoying quirk, I thought I’d report my success with it anyway. Cheers.

Interesting Bug With The Mac App Store In Mavericks
Hi guys. Have any of you noticed that Voiceover automatically interacts with the toolbar when you launch the Mac App Store rather than automatically interacting with the HTML content? I know there’s probably nothing we can do about it, but just thought I’d ask to see if it’s not just me.

Re: can't download Mavericks...
Yes, I am aware of what the command does. And regarding it not working in sl, it was noted in the mac world series covering OSX Mavericks. Cameron.

aggregate audio device not working?
Hi all, I have always heard of people using Soundflower or Audio Hijack plus microphones through the magic of aggregate audio devices. I have never been able to get them to work, however. For now, I just want my USB microphone and my line-in port to act as one device, so I can record both sources simultaneously. My mic works fine in recordings, but the line-in is silent. This has never worked for me under Mountain Lion, and still does not work in Maverix. I have both devices selected in the devices table of my aggregate, but the mic is the only device that works. Does anyone have any suggestions? I’m really getting tired of this not working correctly… Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Re: successful Braille tweak
Up to a point Teresa. If you’re viewing in contracted Braille, or viewing in uncontracted and 8-dot isn’t switched on, then the grade one and two rules seem to come from the Duxbury tables, and I’ve never figured out if it’s possible to play with those. But yeah, it’s possible to change the representation of any character in the 8-dot table. A cool side-effect I discovered was to map dot7 to delete (127) and dot 8 to return (10). That way, at least if 8-dot is active, you can use them for normal backspace and return keys like in JFW. On 25 Oct 2013, at 12:36 pm, Teresa Cochran vegaspipistre...@gmail.com wrote: Wow, ben.

Re: BootDisk Creation Somewhat Works for OSX 10.9 Using Disk Maker X

Re: [HIMS-Notetakers] Mavericks and HIMS Braille displays.
Hi there I was doing okay with my braille Edge?, in fact I told HIMS that it was doing just fine. Then I had serious issues with text edit this morning, and thought maybe my braille display was the culprit. Then I took the braille display off, thinking it might help. Smart me! I tried to put it back on and forget it. It thought I had a braille edge 11, and it refused to pair. No surprise there right? And boy did I start having trouble with TextEdit navigating thanks, Nunneley TextEdit but everything else too. That was when we decided that I needed to go back to mountain kitty.

Re: Humanware displays under Mavericks
well, I am writing this on my Apex. All seems to be working normally for now, though I do not often use braille with os10. The other nice thing is that you can have the same grade 2 translation routine on the Mac that you have in iOS7. That is where the Mac will not translate what you type until you press space, or space-4-5. The down side to this is that you cannot see the word you are typing as you type it, only after you hit space. Overall, though, everything seems to be working well with Humanware displays, at least the Apex. If it matters, I am using a Bluetooth connection.

Re: email problems
I don't think it's a notification thing at all. What if you press command O on the messages you want to read? This way it opens in a new window and so VoiceOver shouldn't announce any new rows added.

If you’re running Mountain Lion or higher, the other thing you could try is to go into Mail, Preferences, General, and limit notifications to VIPs (it’s set to Inbox only by default). You could then simply not add anyone to your VIP list and you shouldn’t get any notifications. However, this obviously won’t work if you use your VIP list. Hope that works.

It’s not a notification thing; it’s from the apple mail itsself telling me I’m getting mail It has always said “two rows added” or whatever it says, but never when I had focus on text reading it. I have my mail set to none in notifications. I do appreciate the suggestion though. alia On Oct 24, 2013, at 3:10 PM, Edward Green ergreen1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Alia, Go into System Preferences, interact with the preference pains scroll area, choose Notification Centre, interact with the table and choose mail. Then set the alert style to none by clicking on the relevant radio button. This should fix it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
