Airmail for Mac a great replacement for Apple Mail
Please could you check this out and report on its accessibility? Thanks! Airmail for Mac a great replacement for Apple Mail by MacDailyNews [cfsp key=adsense_336x280]After Mac OS X 10.8, Apple Mail has been going downhill by every update. It's weird because the iOS Mail app is rock solid, Jack Zimmermann writes for JackenHack. Apple Mail has become a slow, unreliable application although they have fixed some of the more serious problems in the latest release. For the first time in many years, I was on the lookout for a new email client software. I wanted to be able to have both of my private and work email accounts in the same program, but have them totally separate to make life easier, and after searching the net I found an application called Airmail [introductory price: $1.99], Zimmermann writes. Airmail is fast. I mean, really fast! I just bought a new MacBook Pro 15 Retina with a 2.5Ghz Intel i7, so it's probably not the best computer to pass any judgement on the speed of an application, but my computer at work is a three year old MacBook Pro and Airmail feels very fast on that machine as well. -- Christopher Hallsworth Student at the Hadley School for the Blind www.hadley.edu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Slow startup.
Hi! When i first bought my mac mini mid 2011 it was quite fast in its startup. Now a days i think it takes 2 or 3 minutes for it before voiceover comes to live. The only thing i've tried is to use onyx which helps a litle bit but not very much. Are there any other sollutions out there? Or am i just an unpatient selfish one? Thanks. /A -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Airmail, we're not there yet
Hi, I took the plunge and bought Airmail just for the heck of it. Airmail has many features which i think could be good but as almost always the accessibility is quite poor. The main window contains lots of tables which appear to be empty although they probably aren’t. I’m sure someone can figure out what these tables are if we wanted to. There are also a lot of unlabeled buttons, however if one wishes to label those buttons, most of them have tool tips so they can actually be labeled. (when will voiceover implement an auto graphics labeler that works in the same way as the one JFW has?) One of the tables i mentioned in the main window is actually populated with both a message list and a preview pane of the messages. All fields are readable except the one that says who the message is from and if there’s any To-field it’s undreadable too. Verdict: Airmail can be used, but at this stage i personally prefer to stick to Apple mail, however it has potential, and so a little polite advocacy is needed. Hope this makes sense. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Airmail, we're not there yet
Thank you or trying this for us. I encourage you to contact the app's developers and inform them of the accessibility issues you experience with this app. Hopefully they will take your concerns seriously and do something about them.

Re: macs and braille displays
Hi Jack, To reach braille settings on your mac, press control option f8 to open the voiceover utility. Then press b for braille. The dots 7 and 8 you feel at the bottom of your display indicate that the text on the display is highlighted. For example, you may be reading a paragraph on a web page that you want to copy and email to a friend or save in a text file. Since the item you are reading is highlighted in voiceover by default, you can press control option shift C to copy the last item voiceover spoke to the clipboard. Then you could paste it where you want. So, that's the reason for the extra dots, though that doesn't make them less annoying. Suffice it to say, you can assume that voiceover has highlighted the contents of it's speech buffer and turn the highlight feature off so that it can be used for things such as indicating system highlights and/or the position of the cursor. To do this: Tab to the checkbox called use dots 7 and 8 to indicate cursor and press space to uncheck the box. The result should be instant relief from those constant marker dots being displayed. I find all of these options really messy and uncheck them all. I can always turn them back on if I need to do advanced word processing or some such. You might also want to adjust the display time for alert messages. You should be able to get grade two on your braille edge. Space 1245 or space G toggles grade two on and off. For password entry, web and email address fields, you might find it easier to enter text in computer braille than in grade two. If you activate the displays tab, you will have a button in there which shows the key bindings for the current braille display. It should be called assign commands or something. I don't have my display connected right now to double check. You will want to go in there and familiarize yourself with the preset key assignments. I am usually pretty unhappy with the defaults. Many features have two key assignments, while hundreds of available features have none at all. Setting up key bindings for full braille functionality is a tedious chore, but once you have it done, you can export your braille settings and save them for use on other macs or for re-instalation should you need to reformat. To test your key assignments, press space plus 13 or space plus K on your braille display.

Re: macs and braille displays
What Erik has written is much more thorough and clear than what I have written below but since there are a few things he didn't say and I don't want to take the time to edit, I will send this as is. If in doubt, defer to what Erik has written. Others have also perhaps posted while I was working on this. Your settings are in voiceover utility under the braille category. Make sure you have show contracted braille checked. Use automatic braille translation has more to do with writing than reading. Checking this means that translation to grade two will happen as you type but the one caveat of this is that he who hesitates may be lost. If you hesitate and then keep typing, the typing gets expanded. So for instance, if you type the word bicycle and you do bicyc and then hesitate and type the l, you will have bicyclike. If you are fast this isn't a problem but I have this unchecked so I can take my time. But if you have this unchecked, you won't see your braille that you are typing until you either do a space, which of course would be at the end of a word, or do chord-dot4. Of course you can also change quickly between contracted and uncontracted braille with chord-g You can also insert a letter without having it expand by doing a letter sign before typing the letter. If you don't want any extra information, make sure you have status cells unchecked. I think the dots at the bottom to which you are referring are the dots 7 and 8 to indicate your cursor/highlighting. Try unchecking use dots 7 and 8 to indicate cursor. I am noticing that if I use the up-and-down controls on the four-way controller on the Edge, I see uncontracted braille so this must be highlighting the lines as I go down. If you use the right and left controls instead only the word your cursor is on will be uncontracted or at least I think that is what is happening. Or if just reading use the advance buttons instead. Sorry, I haven't done a lot of writing about this so I probably am not using the right terminology for the controls. One thing I do find distracting is that you see end-of-line indicators (probably look like a letter j to you). The interface for reading on the iPhone and iPad seems much cleaner to me and less distracting than that on the Mac and I'm sure there must be a good reason but I don't understand what it is totally. I think most of the difference has to do with the highlighting which happens on the Mac but not the iPhone and iPad and is eliminated by unchecking use dots 7 and 8 to indicate cursor. I've mostly been using my Edge with my i-devices and am just now trying to dig in and learn how to use it with my Mac. I also always keep a bluetooth keyboard at hand in case I get lost and because there are a few things that can't be done with the braille display, but I am sure I will need the bluetooth keyboard less and less as I become more proficient. But sometimes it helps me to do a left-or-right arrow with the bluetooth keyboard and feel where I am with the braille display if I become disoriented. Also remember to interact with text when navigating in it; you can look up the chording for interacting in the assign commands table in the displays tab under braille in voiceover utility. Hope this helps some. I've tried to do most of this on my braille display as I have decided to use it more on my Mac as well as my i-devices, but I am sure I have made mistakes. Unlike you, I can use speech to help so yes, I cheated some! -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash!

Re: macs and braille displays
Hi Jack, You wil find the settings for braille in the voice over utility. Hit control option f8. This will take you to the vo utility. After that, go down the table til you find braille. In the braille settings, you can set things up as you like. From your description of the dots along the bottom of the display, that is letting you know that everything is in the voiceover cursor. You can turn this off. Personally, I find those dots annoying! I use a brilliant bi 40 with both my mac and occassionaly my i phone. I have tried using the braille sense with my mac, but the experience isn't as smooth as it is with the brailliant. Feel free to write me off list(caitlyn.furn...@gmail.com), if you want to chat more about setting up your display and I can try to help.

Re: Reading braille in text edit: asking again

iPhone 5 and Siri question
Sorry if this isn't the list to ask but I'm noticing that when I use Siri on my iPhone 5 for work, and I ask it to give me info and it then needs to speak and ask me yes or no, the speech gets cut off and I never hear whether it wants a response from me after the tone. On my 5S personal phone asking the same question, this does not happen. Both are using IiOS 7.1.2. Any thoughts?

Re: key assignments table for braille display
Hi, Press control option f8 for the voiceover utility. Press control option M for the menu bar. Arrow over to file. Arrow downd to export braille preferences and press enter. Choose where to save the file and hit the export button. You're done. You can now share your key bindings file between your various macs, or with friends who have the same model display you have.

Re: iPhone 5 and Siri question
Interesting. This only seems to happen on my 5 and not the 5S. Come to think of it, this used to happen occasionally on my 4S as well but not as often. Siri is practically useless on the 5 I have. I'm considering doing the good old reboot, Lock button and home button together for 10 seconds, to see if that helps. On the 5S Siri is mostly usable and fairly good.

Re: Slow startup.
You can also make sure your startup disk isn't too full, and that apps aren't auto-starting. Apple lets you re-open apps automatically, so your Mac essentially restores itself t how it was when you shut it down. This is really convenient, but it might cause things to run slower.

Opening multiple programs at once

Re: Opening multiple programs at once
My first thought is Applescript. Write and save the script, then run it whenever. tell application Safari to run tell application App Store to run and so forth for each app you want. The keyword might be open instead of run, but the basic idea is the same.

Well, if this is gmail, it might have something to do with your settings up on the gmail website rather than with a problem on your mac.

Re: Airmail, we're not there yet
Hi, Thanks fo0r testing this. For now, I think I will stick with thunder byrd in linux at least untill yosemity is out. If It wasn't for gmail I would use apple mail full time. Just my thoughts.

Airmail has many features which i think could be good but as almost always the accessibility is quite poor. The main window contains lots of tables which appear to be empty although they probably aren’t. I’m sure someone can figure out what these tables are if we wanted to. There are also a lot of unlabeled buttons, however if one wishes to label those buttons, most of them have tool tips so they can actually be labeled. (when will voiceover implement an auto graphics labeler that works in the same way as the one JFW has?) One of the tables i mentioned in the main window is actually populated with both a message list and a preview pane of the messages. All fields are readable except the one that says who the message is from and if there’s any To-field it’s undreadable too. Verdict: Airmail can be used, but at this stage i personally prefer to stick to Apple mail, however it has potential, and so a little polite advocacy is needed. Hope this makes sense. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Opening multiple programs at once
I googled Mac opening multiple apps at onceand found several hits, one of which was a video showing how to create an automator application to do this. Although it wasn't a blind oriented video, it was relatively simple to figure out. Now I have an application on my desktop called Video project that when opened, opens up all the apps I need to do my work. Also, I have the added bonus of successfully writing my first automator app. It's not so hard once you get over the hump with your first one.

Re: VO Announces Authentication After Quitting An App
It sounds more like you have an authentication window open. Press vo-f1 twice and arrow through the list; you should be able to find the window in question and go to it to see what it is.

Authentication Still Showing After Quitting Apps
This is an update on what I found after quitting a program with command-Q. VO continues to announce Authentication. I tried using VO-F1 twice quickly when this occurs. I get this message, User Authentication is REquired. When I try to interact with it, VO Right arrow or just right arrow to open it the computer states, Authentication Shows No Windows. Hence, I can't close this out. When I just open the application menu with VO-F1 twice quickly, I am using columm view. I cannot access this Authentication bug. Does anyone have some other suggestions to get rid of this ignoring nusense? thanks in advance.
