Re: VO won't shut up when downloading files if Downloads folder is open

2014-06-16 Thread Anders Holmberg
Hi!
I think this might be a verbosity problem.
I have my verbosity set to the lowest as i get frustrated with all info all of 
the time.
Sometimes it can be good but sometimes not.

 Well, it is usual behavior if your downloads folder is open for you to hear

 downloading, I wonder if it could be something in your voiceover settings,

Hello Jean,

In System Preferences, go to Notifications and uncheck all the check boxes for 
each application. It isn't enough just to take an application out of 
Notification centre, you have to disable all the alerts as well.

Cheers,

Anne

how on earth ibooks

2014-06-16 Thread Yuma Antoine Decaux
Hi all,

I'm trying to read the swift language introduction and guide, using ibooks but 
as of mavericks it's a complete mess. The shortcuts don't work, nothing is 
intuitive, none of the buttons are labelled, it's horrible.

Can anyone tell me how they go around ibooks right now, and give me the simple 
lowdown on the following:
1-going to next/previous page
2-what are the unabelled buttons from left to right once a book opened


Thanks for any help

Re: how on earth ibooks

2014-06-16 Thread isaac
Hi there as far as the unlabeled buttons I am not sure what they do. 
What I do know is that once you press command o to open a book in iBooks to 
view the table of contence you will interact with this scroll area and then you 
will be able to view the table of contence. 
 To view the text you have to interact with the topic you want to  view. By the 
way I was just testing the buttons out and  one of the buttons god to the 
previous page and one of them god to the next.

Hi
Have you restarted the computer recently? have you done a control, option, 
shift power button reset? I find these helpful when my computer is acting up. 
to do the control option shift power button reset, you must plug in your 
computer.
I hope you get it figured out. Please let us know what you did once you do 
figure it out.

Texting accessibly

2014-06-16 Thread Devin Prater
Hi app all. 
I have gone through many applications for ios. I used text now and i-\#message. 
I am wondering if there is any messaging app, compatible with the ipod touch 
that can text USA numbers that is as accessible as apples messages app. I'd 
like to be automatically alerted to incoming messages and maybe knowing when 
someone has read my messages. I've used Google voice connect, but really didn't 
like it because it didn't use apples notification center due to privacy. Other 
than that I'd happily use my Google voice number, but Google voice connect 
couldn't be used to make calls, so that's why I use text now. But text now 
doesn't announce when a thread has unrest messages. Also, even though the 
current Fleksy I don't really like, I do wish it was in an app besides Google 
voice connect, using the slowly dying Google voice.

Re: VO won't shut up when downloading files if Downloads folder is open

2014-06-16 Thread Cheryl Homiak
I wasn't specifically thinking about your level i.e.: medium, low, high, etc. 
Mine is on high but there are other adjustments. I was thinking about checking 
all the tabs: hints, announcements, text, etc. I don't think it has anything to 
do per se with this being an Air as my Air does not do that. I think it either 
has to be your verbosity settings or for some reason something is going on with 
the way vo is focussing and announcing that focussing. Certainly rebooting, 
changing permissions, checking your cursor tracking and related areas, would be 
a good troubleshooting step.

 For what it is worth, I just saw a very similar behavior this morning on my 
 MacBook Air 11 inch. I was focused on the Messages app and not focused at all 
 on Mail, and kept hearing VO say 'one row added' etc. as each new email 
 message was downloaded.
 
 So even though I was focused with VoiceOver in Messages, and reading / trying 
 to respond to iMessages, VO was still announcing updates to my inbox in Mail.
 
 Cursor tracking was definitely on, and I was definitely focused in Messages 
 and was able to type in the edit field. Though VO kept interrupting what I 
 was doing... So I wonder if this is related to what you are seeing?...
 
 This is the first time I've seen this. This is definitely not only strange 
 but downright obnoxious and counterproductive. :)
 
 Thanks for letting us know about what you are seeing.
 
 Cara :)

Re: Messages and Mail / One Row Added -was- Re: VO won't shut up when downloading files if Downloads folder is open

2014-06-16 Thread Cara Quinn
Hi Anne,

Thanks so much for the suggestion, but I actually have completely disabled 
Notification Center and removed it from my status menus so it absolutely never 
comes up or bothers me with anything at all! :)

I'm wondering though, in the method you are mentioning, when Notification 
Center is active and you have disabled announcements as you have, are the 'one 
row added' shenanigans in Mail and other apps mercifully prevented or do they 
still go on?

Thank you so much Anne! Do have a lovely day / evening!

Cara :)

Hello Cara,

Could this problem be related to the Notifications? I've removed everything 
from Notifications and set them all to do nothing. Just taking them out of 
Notifications wasn't sufficient.

I have an activity for Mail with Verbosity set to Low, and links and URLs set 
to play tone. This all makes Mail much less verbose and pleasanter to use.

Cheers,

Anne

At the moment I can't use Focus with Mavericks unless it's connected via USB. I 
have reported to Apple and they are looking in to the issue. Others can use 
their Focus via bluetooth without having problems.

Re: Messages and Mail / One Row Added -was- Re: VO won't shut up when downloading files if Downloads folder is open

2014-06-16 Thread Cara Quinn
Thank you Anders,

Will try this in future if this happens again.

Interestingly enough, this is absolutely the first and only time so far, in 
years of using VO and Mail that I have ever seen this happen. Usually 
redirecting VoiceOver's focus somewhere other than the offending app or mailbox 
will stop the 'one row added' madness...

Like Alex, I have changed no settings or anything else... -Interesting...

Thanks again and have a terrific day / evening!

Re: notification center

2014-06-16 Thread Cara Quinn
Hi Jean,

Here is a link with another way to effectively disable Notification Center, 
should you need to. As with Anne's option, this is non-destructive.

http://www.cnet.com/news/how-to-turn-off-notification-center-in-os-x-mavericks/

I've personally not tried this as this option was not available when 
Notification Center started being the bane of my work day so I needed to take 
another road, but hopefully between Anne's suggestions and this link you should 
find what you are looking for.

HTH and have a great day!

Smiles,

Cara :)

I do something similar to hiding apps: I use full screen on each one. I don't 
have those Mail message verbosity problems. Of course, it's possible to create 
an activity for an app and change the verbosity within that activity. I have it 
ses to high for some applications and low for others.

Let me begin, I cannot get the hang of Mac Maps.  Is it possible to explore the 
map?  Pretend I'm standing on Front street then walk along it?

We are going on vacation next Month and the town is suppose to be very 
walkable.  I wanted to enter the hotel address, then plan some future walking 
to nearby shops, restaurants, dog friendly places etc.  Is this doable via the 
Mac maps app?

My name is Anders Holmberg and i am from Sweden.
I am ttotaly blind and 39 years.
I have had my mac Mini since 2011.
This is my first and only Mac for now but hopfully i will get a macbook also.
Even though i am not really used to the mac.
I come from both windows and Linux so maybe thats why i have ndifficulties 
learning or getting the grip of the mac.
Of course i can navigate the web and do mail and also navigating the folder 
structure but i really find some things very strange. But i find mac quite good 
for using with most apps i work with.
However lets come to my question which is audio related.
Lets say i am listening to a live stream on the internet.
Now i want to record another archived stream with audio hijack pro.
I suppose i can do that but how?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Disabling notification centre?

2014-06-16 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

Essentially, what Cara's link tells you to do is set the Do Not Disturb times 
in your System Prefs to 23 hours and 59 minutes.  So, Notifications are only on 
for one minute of each day.  So, you could set Do Not Disturb to be active 
from 7:00 am to 6:59 am and it would only be active for the one minute just 
before 7:00 am.  I used a Terminal method back in Mountain Lion to disable it 
for student computers at our schools, but it no longer works in Mavericks.

Later...

Re: Audio Hijack Pro

2014-06-16 Thread Teresa Cochran
Welcome, Anders. Once you get the Audio Hijack application, you can set each 
kind of recording up in it. You can record streams while playing others. You 
would have to take a look at all of your settings for recording, etc. within 
the app. By default, Audio Hijack will exclude Voiceover from being recorded.

HtH,
Teresa

Re: Focus 40 Blue and Maverix

Hi!
I don't have a focus but i have paired a handytech braillino a mac.
It worked well.
So i suppose it will be no problems pairing a focus.
Though i don't use braille on my mac as i think the braille support or the lack 
of braille support is something that annois me really much.

notification center

2014-06-16 Thread Jean
All:
I went to system preferences and to the table with the apps in the notification 
center.  Since it is the email program causing the most problems I  unchecked 
it.  We will see if that solves the problem.  
I had previously tried to do this using do not disturb for 24 hours, 10:00 PM 
to 10:00 PM.  I am curious why it would have to be for 23 hours and 59 minutes 
instead of for 24 hours?
Thanks everyone for helping with this.
