Dish Network App?

2013-12-26 Thread Jim Portillo
Hi there,

 

I'm wondering if anyone uses any of the Dish Network apps with VoiceOver,
and if so, how accessible are they?  I am getting Dish Network and want to
be able to do things like program my DVR and such.

Any help would be appreciated.

Which ones should I download? Jim

editing audio tracks on the mac

2013-12-26 Thread William Windels
Hello,
I would like to edit audio tracks that contains speech from a phone-call.
The quality is not that good so I want to make it better , if possible.

I have tried audacity but see not that difference  with the normalize option.
But perhaps more important: I can't edit any preferences, can't see the version 
and can't find a newer version in the app store.

So, is there a accessible (free) app for the mac to improve quality of 
mp3-files?

kind regards,
William Windels

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper
thrown in the trash!
Then God gave me a new heart and life:
His joy for my despairing tears!
And now, every day:
"This I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord
never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness."

Re: Using multiple desktops on Mac OS with VoiceOver

2013-12-26 Thread Nicholas Parsons
Yes, I tried multiple desktops thinking I would only be able to command-tab 
between apps running on the current desktop. I thought that would make it 
convenient to keep different activities separate. I was disappointed it doesn't 
work like that. As it is, I'm not sure multiple desktops have any real 
application for VoiceOver users. I would certainly second you if you asked 
Apple to make it so command-tab only switched between apps running on the 
current desktop. There are plenty of more important issues for Apple to be 
working on, however.
Best,
Nic

Re: Downloading Audible Audiobooks on the Mac

2013-12-26 Thread Nicholas Parsons
Hi Kawal,

Happy holidays to you too! Hope you're enjoying a break and keeping warm.

Since Apple messed up audiobook navigation in the iOS 7 Music app, I have been 
using the Audible app. However, there are two reasons why I still like to 
download Audible audiobooks on my Mac.

First, Audible doesn't guarantee access to your books in the cloud. They 
reserve the right to remove books from your library if the publisher at anytime 
restricts their right to distribute audiobooks to your area, or if the book was 
banned for any other reason. I have seen this happen before, that audiobooks 
which were available to me later became unavailable. So I like to have local 
copies of all my audiobooks and to make my own bakcups of this content. It also 
protects me in the event Audible decides that customers must have a membership 
to access their library.

Second, I often like to listen to my audiobooks on my iPod Nano. It 
conveniently attaches to my wrist and has a 24 hour battery life, so I can 
listen to it for a long time without using up my iPhone or iPad battery. The 
only way to get content on to it though is through syncing with iTunes.

So while downloading Audible audiobooks on my Mac is not necessary for me to 
listen to them, I still do it and I think it's important that all VO users have 
this option. Thankfully it's still possible, though a little fiddly.

Best,
Nic

Re: Downloading Audible Audiobooks on the Mac

2013-12-26 Thread Nicholas Parsons
HI Cheryl,

I think I might have discovered the problem. I was unable to get your method to 
work at first. I could see the download links in the item chooser, but could 
not navigate to them. I was also unable to navigate to them using tab or 
VO-arrow keys. However, I turned off group items within when navigating web 
tables in the Navigation tab of the Web pane in VoiceOver Preferences, and I 
can then easily get to the download links by navigating by link. I'm sure once 
I have navigated to the link that return will allow me to download it, though I 
didn't try this as I have now downloaded all my books through Google Chrome. I 
was using Safari 6.0.5.

So it seems that to download audible audiobooks in Safari, one must have the 
group items within web tables feature disabled in VoiceOver Preferences. I take 
it you had this setting disabled, Cheryl? Otherwise using tab in Google Chrome 
works as well, even with group items within web tables enabled.

Cheers,
Nic

Re: antivirus for mac, is it useful?

2013-12-26 Thread eric oyen
these days, common sense isn't enough. There are sites being infected with 
multi-platform malicious code that can infect your machine on a "browse by" 
session. Some flash on some sites can also infect your mac. We are no longer 
the odd man out when it comes to malicious software of any kind (windows has 
been losing the desktop/laptop market share for a long while now).

Most site operators either don't know or don't realize that their sites are so 
vulnerable to attack (and very few even have the knowledge to secure their 
sites). SO , as a result, infections among users of apple products has been on 
the rise.

 One of the best ways to prevent infections is to make sure you have adequate 
protection. This includes: a anti-virus package, a firewall and backups of your 
system (just in case). 

SO far, the 2 best top a/v packages are: virus barrier and clamsav. Both are 
accessible for the blind and both can be setup and configured for a variety of 
tasks. There are several others, but their accessibility across platforms for 
the blind is very limited.

Anyway, thats my take on the issue.

Re: antivirus for mac, is it useful?

2013-12-26 Thread Littlefield, Tyler
Common sense only goes so far. A lot of people brag about how it has no 
viruses, but there are viruses out there for OSX and the market is 
getting larger. This means that the returns of writing a virus for OSX 
are much higher.


Common sense is useful, but in today's world it's not everything. If 
someone gets infected and the virus spawns through email/etc, it's 
already been easy enough to infect people through graphics with exploits 
on the format, etc etc.

Re: Configuring Nicecast on Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks)

2013-12-26 Thread Daniel Chavez
Hi,
That question was referring to an external server. The fact that you have ports 
blocked won’t help, even if you did setup a Mac server of your own, as all of 
the ports you plan to use, from the sounds of it, are blocked. So the local 
network works because no ports need to be forwarded or opened for access from 
the outside.
If you really want to broadcast without issue, I’d recommend broadcasting to an 
external server; that the provider will assign you a port on their server, and 
you configure NiceCast for Icecast1, Icecast2, or Shoutcast, along with the 
port you’d be assigned. Then, you give someone the address to your stream, and 
you won’t have to worry about you having to have blocked ports.
If you need my help, I run web hosting called Firestar-Hosting.Com
Through that site, I offer both web hosting and broadcast services, including 
people wanting to do what you’d like to do, broadcast externally.

Using multiple desktops on Mac OS with VoiceOver

When I start command+tabbing between applications, Mac OS will let me

Do you find this annoying? Should I file a report on this?

Re: antivirus for mac, is it useful?

I’d recommend downloading virusBarrier (from the app store). Mac’s however 
don’t generally get Viruses. You have a small chance of getting one if you 
download a lot of 3rd party apps that you can’t find in the app store, past 
that it’s unlikely.

Hi.

holding down the option key when you hear the startup sound will bring
up your boot choices. Just right arrow or left arrow and then hit
enter.

In startup disk under system preferences on mac, and, the bootcamp
control panel under windows, you can change your default startup disk.

Re: Useing The Calendar With Mavericks

Hi, simply interact with the grid and use vo-left or right to move by day, and 
vo-up or down to move by week, remembering your command-left and command-right 
to move by month. Using tab, you can move through your appointments during the 
selected month too.

Useing The Calendar With Mavericks

2013-12-26 Thread Christopher Edwards
Hello,

Happy New Year to you all.

I have been using some of my One-to-One training sessions at the local Apple 
store to have a look at Mavericks before upgrading.

The first problem I encountered is with the Calendar. In Month View, I cannot 
navigate to either the end of the month or the beginning of the month. which 
one seems to depend on the current date. When I go forward as far as I can I 
suddenly get switched back to the beginning of the month. If I do the reverse I 
get switched back to the last day in the month that I could reach by navigating 
forward. I hope this makes sense. I was trapped in a section of the month that 
either started on the first day but stopped before the end or ended on the last 
day but did not go back to the beginning.

The trainer told me that there was a scroll icon to click but Voiceover cannot 
find this. We tried other views but still had scrolling problems. He told me 
that in Day View I could scroll up and down by using a two finger flick up or 
down on the track pad but this did not work either despite trying various 
possibilities. I must say that so far this is quite a disappointment.

I am wondering if this is a genuine issue with Voiceover and the calendar or 
whether it is due to an error on my part. I have tried all the tracking options 
I can think of and also routing the mouse to the last or first date to which I 
can navigate and clicking the track pad. However nothing seems to work.

If any of you have any suggestions about what I might do they would be greatly 
appreciated.

Many thanks,

Chris

Re: installed mavericks

2013-12-26 Thread Mike Arrigo
First, download the installer from the app store. There is an 
application called diskmaker x
If you do a google search for it, it should be the first result. Once 
you have that, run it and follow the instructions. It will create a 
bootable install using a partition on a drive, or you can dedicate an 8 
GB flash drive or memory card to it. Depending on the speed of the 
drive, it may take a little while, but once it's done, you can boot the 
mac using it and have an install disk that you can use on any mac.

INstalling a new operating system over the top of another one is 
trouble waiting to happen, even if the software allows you to do it. 
Assuming I don't run in to other problems, will probably upgrade my 
other 2 macs as well.

I don’t think this is possible.  Truth be told, I turned off Voiceover sound

Re: toggle bitween windows and mavericks, and partetioning my hd

2013-12-26 Thread Alex Hall
You can also install the Refit boot manager. I like it because it not only 
prompts you to choose a disk when you boot (defaulting to your default after a 
certain time if you do nothing), it gives you first-letter selection. When I 
boot, I can hit m for mac, w for windows, and, I think, r for recovery. No need 
to arrow to one or the other or hold down any keys.

Hi.

holding down the option key when you hear the startup sound will bring
up your boot choices. Just right arrow or left arrow and then hit

In startup disk under system preferences on mac, and, the bootcamp

Hey everyone, well, on one of my macs, it refused to boot off of the 
internal drive, though all of the files were there. Not sure what 
happened, but, I decided this might be the time to install 10.9.1 on 
it. So far so good. It's actually much more responsive, and the mail 
program works fine, at least in the classic mode. I don't use 
conversation mode. I think one important key is doing a clean install. 
INstalling a new operating system over the top of another one is 
trouble waiting to happen, even if the software allows you to do it. 
Assuming I don't run in to other problems, will probably upgrade my 
other 2 macs as well.

Re: Inverting colours

2013-12-26 Thread Red.Falcon
Hi!
I'm sorry I was not clear enough, so for any others reading this!
1, go to system pref's and select keyboard.
2, select the shortcuts tab.
3, select the accessibility category in the table.
4, in the table of key strokes find invert colours and interact with it until 
you hear VO say editing text, then press the key combination you wish to use 
[making sure that key stroke is not used for anything else]
and VO should say selection replaced, arrow left and back to see if your 
selection is now there and if so just quit Pref's and off you go!
I hope this is better!
Colin

Inverting colours

2013-12-26 Thread Terje Strømberg
Hi Colin and others,

I can`t find go-command-8 for hot spot 8 in keyboard, keyboard shortcuts. When 
i am in table starting with Launchpad and doc and ending with short cuts for 
program.  Wich one of these 9 categories is the hot spot 8 command hiding? And 
which sub category in the sub table to the right? I have looked at everyone, i 
believe.

Meanwhile, i found out that turning of Voice Over with command+f5 and hit 
vo-command+8 inverts color, but not as fast as your solution.

Oaaaoo, finally i did understand. It was the inverting colors i should find, 
not hot spot 8. I did not think i was possible to change this command. Thank 
you. 

Take care

Re: Downloading Audible Audiobooks on the Mac

2013-12-26 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Why not just get the Audible app for the I phone as then all books would be at 
your finger tips in a manner of speaking.

I just use the Audible app and I don’t need iTunes to download books.

A happy new year to you all and hope every one is having a good holiday break 
now that we’re between Christmas and the new year.

Best,

Kawal.
