Iheart Radio app for Ipad
I installed the Iheart radio app on my Iphone because I want access to 1 station and I can't find that station anywhere else. I was able to find it and play it but when I installed the app on my Ipad, it seems completely inaccessible. has anybody had experience with this? is there any other way to access Iheart stations? it seems to be trying to be Pandora and several other things all rolled into one. very annoying.

Re: Intro
Well, Lorie, welcome to the group. As for me, I'm Barefooted Ray (cause that's how I always am inside and outside too when possible. As for me, I just got an Apple tV box and love it. Best way to bring one's iTunes library in to one's living room and 7.1 channel system in my opinion. Sure, a Mac mini would have solved that problem nicely, but for now, needed a less costly solution and the Apple TV fits that perfectly. My desk top is actually a 15 inch Mac book Pro which I got in November of 2009, so, it's kind of getting up there. My iPhone is a gold 128GB Verizon wireless model. In any case, welcome to the group. We're here to help. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray, Still a very happy Mac and Verizon Wireless iPhone 6+ user!

Re: Iheart Radio app for Ipad
Might I suggest that Ootunes would be possibly an option? Lots of iHeart stations there. Now, bear in mind that Ootunes does cost, but, is fully accessible and well worth what you pay for it.

Re: OT: looking for recommendations for good headphones
Okay guys, here we go. The Sony MDRV6 with CCAW voice coil is currently $50. However, a pair of Senheisser 598s is currently just $100, and those puppies are apparently far more expensive normally. Again considering accurate sound reproduction, wearing them for long stretches, and overall quality, is the extra $50 worth it for the Senheissers? I'm leaning toward yes, but I'm not sure.

Re: OT: looking for recommendations for good headphones
Sadly, the deal was gone by the time I got to it. Trust me, it was all I could do not to punch a wall. smile Now, it's between the Sonys and a set a friend swears by: the Grado SR80E. Both are similarly priced. The only hesitation I have with the Sonys (which another friend loves) is that reviews say they are studio monitors. That's great for, well, monitoring, but it makes them (according to the review) sound flat and not as good while gaming or just enjoying music. The guy I know who uses them, though, says they work great. Needless to say, I'm desperately wishing I could try all these in person, but that won't happen. Any thoughts?

Re: OT: looking for recommendations for good headphones
Hi, If your looking for over the ear, and something you can just wear for a long time in comfort, I recommend the Sennheiser Momentums. I’m using them right now, and absolutely love them. The ear pads are extremely plush, and the band is made of titanium. Very good build quality hear. And, the cable is detachable. You also get a cable with a mic and playback control for Apple devices. hth Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On Nov 28, 2014, at 10:07 AM, Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com wrote: Sadly, the deal was gone by the time I got to it.

Re: mac terminal
Since there were no further mentions of OS or application one other hint is if you are on UNIX most applications can have standard out piped to pager program like more or less. (Those are two separate programs and Less has more features than more). Also when I was doing builds using the terminal I would make sure to hit command K before the build and the terminal application is configured to keep all scrolled output. So I could run make walk away and then later review the full output with the VO commands. Another technique I often use is to take advantage of the tee command. With this command you can log all output to a file and also see it on screen.

Re: Daisy File Conversion
There are a couple of daisy readers that work on the Macintosh, but I do not know their capabilities. Daisy files have at least one SMIL file that synchronizes each type of material (voice, text, HTML) in a chunk of text. I believe there is also a file listing each SMIL file that is being used. With a bit of script programming and some looking at DAISY standards you could probably pull this off for at least unencrypted DAISY files.

Possible Bug in Yousemity?

Anyway, in Yousemity, Sorry about the spelling, there I think is a bug in the Time and date preferences. I like Daniel to tell me the time but Yousemity is having none of it. It chooses Alex but if I'm using Mavericks everything is fine. Has anyone else noticed this? Since I've not been on the net for about a month, is there a lot of differences in both operating systems? I haven't noticed anything yet but then I've not had time to play with new Mac mini yet! Thank you.

Regularly scheduled time announcements defined in the Date/Time preference pane. I believe these always use the default voice and have no script attached to them.

Hello, The conversion can be done on the mac using Calibre and the xsltproc utility (which exists on your mac). 1. unzip the bookshare file using the unzip program in a terminal. 2. Convert the xml file to html format using xsltproc in a terminal. 3. Convert the html file to pub using calibre. The resulting epub file can be opened in ibooks.

About 15 years ago I bought some nice high-end Sennheiser studio headphones after years of going through cheapie sets. They sound great and are super comfortable with a hard outer shell which blocks a lot of noise. I guess you could find that in any manufacturer's headsets but what pro ones have is replaceable parts. About four years ago the pads which go around my ears were starting to come apart and I was able to just order a replacement set making them like new again. Likewise about a year ago the cord finally started making intermittent connections after so many years of be pulled and folded. Ordered another cord and was able to replace it (each ear has a small plug).

Re: Finder Podcast Part 1
By all means if it does not involve you in too much effort. I am starting to submit via Apple Vis but a workable way of posting podcasts independently would be a very worthwhile project. If I ever get my head completely around it I will probably do a Podcast on it!

It uses a open source program called lltag to read the tags in the mp3 file and then it builds a podcast xml from those tags. I downloaded the mp3 that Robert Cole just posted and it has most of the appropriate tags. I may be able to find a tool in Mac OS that works like lltag. There might even be a Mac version of lltag.

It is not obvious if these clients are accessible. I do not mind shelling out for a one off app but would am hesitant about paying out for an ongoing service. Does anybody know of accessible Podcast Feed creation clients that are free or low cost and similar web hosting services that are also free or low cost? I suppose an option would be just to see if Apple Vis would be interested in hosting the podcasts.

Downloading From amazon.
Tonight I succeeded in downloading an mp3 album from Amazon. The process was pretty painless. 1. I downloaded and installed the Amazon Music Downloader. I posted a link to this yesterday but it can be found through a Google search. You have to ignore all efforts by Amazon to direct you to download the inaccessible Amazon Music app. 2. You need to go to system preferences on your mac and change the security level to accept all apps for the Amazon Music Downloader to work. 3. I went to Amazon and purchased an album. I added it to the mp3 basket and managed after a while to checkout . At one stage I had to use VO command F5 to route mouse to Voiceover and performed a shift Vo Space virtual mouse click. I cannot remember which button I had to do this on but try this if a button does not respond. 4. This is the important bit. Ignore all of the repeated attempts by Amazon to get you to download and install various versions of the Amazon Music app. Travel pass these invitation to the button which says no thanks use the Amazon Music Downloader instead.. 5. The app will then open and down load your purchase into your Music Folder under an Amazon Mp3 directory. 6. Interestingly unlike the Windows version the Mac version of the Amazon Music Downloader appears accessible and there are buttons which allow you to import your purchase into iTunes or go to your download music. All in all it is not too painful a process. The Amazons pages are very cluttered but I used quick nav and repeatedly pressed b to jump to the necessary buttons during checkout.

Re: Help with GMail
Hi, Usually, I will go to www.google.ca or www.google.com so that it’s the front page of Google. I can then press shift-tab which will land me on my name. I then press return, then tab a few times to a Sign Out link and press return on it. If you’re not seeing a Sign Out link and only a Sign In link, then you’ll need to choose the Add Account link and log in with your new Gmail address from there. Can’t recall at this point how to make it so that your old one is never a choice, but if you’re logged into the new one, and you’ve added it, that account will be available when signing in. HTH.

Re: Downloading From amazon.
No it is definitely not Amazon Music installer it is Amazon mp3 downloader. I may have referred to it amazon music downloader by mistake. It is an installation file that you run from a disk image in the normal way.You do not have to manually copy it into the app folder but the application installer puts it there for you. You need to change your system preferences before the app will work properly. If you google for Amazon Mp3 downloader you will eventually find it but Amazon will try to persuade you too install the inaccessible Amazon Music app instead but simply travel past these messages and you will find the option to download and use the old Mp3 Downloader program which remains accessible.

Re: Downloading From amazon.
I would not bother on Amazon. If you look simply on Amazon I think you will be routed to the normal app. they want you to use it as they can then bombard you with “suggestions” for further purchases. This is why you have to hunt out Amazon Mp3 downloader. If you do not want to use the UK link I think Google will be your best bet.

I have created my own account and I have found my private folder as well as the public folders. One question I have, when you create an account for yourself or somebody else for that matter, do you also create a volume, i.e. partition the drive? In Western Digital speak they call these things shares. Is this actually a partition? In finder I can see a volume with the same name as the name of my account and Voiceover says volume.

up specking a new MacBook Air
Hi folks, I'm thinking about purchasing the 11 inch MBA. Am I right in thinking that adding more ram will be more beneficial to a blind person than upping the processor from 1.4 to 1.7? Would 8 GB of ram be enough in the 11 inch, 256 Flash drive model? Does the added processor speed really make a difference if you're not using many graphics? Will I notice any improved speed from my 2011 MBP which is slow at opening programmes sometimes. It really gets expensive adding processor speed and ram. Any thoughts welcome. Also, like the other person, I really need simple instructions about how to clean my old Mac for a new user. I don't know how to get into the recovery petition and the thought terrifies me if Im honest. Isn't there a simple Apple setting to restore to factory defaults like there is on the iPhones?

Re: Western Digital my icloud NaS drive application and Voiceover
Hi, western digital drives are colour coded. Green is the consumer grade drive for use in standard pc’s. Red is the nas storage drive. Black is the gamer high performance drive. They have a blue as well I think. The difference in price very often doesn’t seem to justify the specifications on paper, but I guess red and black have better quality parts, energy saving features, heat disipation and so on.

I’ve written to them but I am not sure they care. Shame on them too! I have created my own account and I have found my private folder as well as the public folders. One question I have, when you create an account for yourself or somebody else for that matter, do you also create a volume, i.e. partition the drive? In Western Digital speak they call these things shares. Is this actually a partition? In finder I can see a volume with the same name as the name of my account and Voiceover says volume. Is it a partition? Many thanks again. Andrew On 26 Nov 2014, at 21:53, erik burggraaf e...@erik-burggraaf.com wrote: From the mac side, I did the following to transfer files. Open finder.

Enter your username and password. When asked to mount your volumes, say OK. Back in finder, you should automatically be taken to the computer folder
RE: up specking a new MacBook Air
Hi Lisette, To the honest if you can, max out the ram and the processor, the maximum the air will take is 8gb from memory and the faster processor will help you if you're wanting to run power hungry apps like VMWare fusion, or edit large audio files. At least, it's certainly helped me. You will indeed notice a big improvement over the 2011 MBP as the air has a solidstate drive so it will be fast in every respect. There'll be a lot of oppinions on faster processor vs, more ram, vs other things, but I'm just letting you know what I did and it's certainly helped a lot with my setup. I also maxed out to the 512gb SSD, so I could get the absolute best life out of my mac and so I didn't have to purchase another computer for a long time. (SMILE) Hope this helps.

Re: making macport created applications accessible?
On the MacVoiceover mailing list there was a discussion about getting ORCA running on OSX where the definitive answer a few years ago from Travis Siegel seemed to come down to this: Contrary to popular belief, osx is *not* built on linux, it's built on FreeBSD, which also is *not* built on linux. As for porting orca to osx, I'm not sure if this can/has been done, because orca spends at least part of it's time talking to the linux kernel, which would have to be translated to native osx/freebsd kernel calls. I know a large part of orca talks to the x server, and not to linux directly, and it may be possible to make a port that would work on osx, but as far as I know, this has not been attempted. CB On 11/26/14, 11:58 PM, Eric Oyen wrote: um yeah. that starts to sound way too complicated. Also, ORCA (the screen reader I use in Linux) doesn't have a port to macports. it also has a lot of dependencies that aren't there either. building stuff that strictly uses a console (or terminal) window is easy and those programs just work. its anything that requires X which is being the pain. -eric On Nov 26, 2014, at 9:13 PM, 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries wrote: In some ways, once you get outside text-based terminal apps, you're in a whole other environment in the X11 world. I'm not nearly as familiar with how accessibility is done there but I'm pretty sure voiceover will not help you there. From the XWindow Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System#Computer_accessibility_related_issues However there is no accessibility standard or accessibility guidelines for X11. Within the X11 standards process there is no working group on accessibility, however, accessibility needs are being addressed by software projects to provide these features on top of X. The Orca project adds accessibility support to the X Window System, including implementing an API (AT-SPI). This is coupled with Gnome's ATK to allow for accessibility features to be implemented in X programs using the Gnome/GTK APIs. KDE provides a different set of accessibility software, including a text-to-speech converter and a screen magnifier. The other major desktops (LXDE, Xfce and Enlightenment) attempt to be compatible with ATK. So it sounds like individual apps implement accessibility rather than having it baked into the infrastructure or they rely on another layer on top of X11 and not all apps use this layer. In other words, layers of goo that seems unlikely for the average person to get all working correctly.

The problem I see is that almost all of them use X11 as their presentation platform.
