Re: syncing iTunes library
Yes, you can observe the process within the lcd section of the itunes window. The lcd section is to the left of the search field. If you interact with it, you can find all sorts of info there, including the stage your sincing is at.

Google Chrome doesn't perform well under Yosemite
Hi, Since upgrading to Yosemite, I don't seem to be able to use Google Chrome. It gets stuck on a heading and nothing works apart from moving by headings. I can't read any content on pages only by heading or links but I can no longer use vo+arrow keys to move about in a page. Has anybody else experienced this? Last night, I tried another browser for mac called Aviator and it behaves in the same fashion as Google Chrome does now. Any comments?

Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll
I am making progress with VoiceOver. I can read, write, send, reply to, and save email now. I just have to read it by paragraph, and can't jump from the list of four emails to the emails themselves. I can work in Safari, use Skype, Messages, and even have some luck with calendar. However, several commands do not work at all. It doesn't matter whether I use the keyboard commands, the NumPad commands, or the trackpad commands. When I try any of the commands to read (two finger swipe up, VOA, VOB), or even VOJ, VoiceOver does not make a sound or error code. I can use most any other command. Even the ones to read by sentence, word, line, paragraph. I've tested with Quick Nav on and with Quick Nav off. I tested with NumPad on and with it off. Same for trackpad. Another oddity. Scroll commands do not work in scroll mode. Still Another (Are they related?) Using find with VoiceOver on doesn't really work. I can click to go to the found item, and it goes back to the top of the document rather than the found item. (For instance a search for message 7 in the body of the email should go to the words message 7 not back to the top of the email. And I did check the Keyboard help and command sections for NumPad, trackpad, QuickNav, and Keyboard. All key combinations are still designated correctly. No luck. What setting is preventing VOJ, VOA, and VOB from working? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Putting email lists in contacts
In Contacts, there's a list of all groups on the left. Selecting one (you don't need to interact with the table, just up/down arrow on it) will cause the list of contacts being displayed to be limited to just that group, and the search box to only search that group. To add a contact, just find it, copy it with cmd-c, find the group you want it in, and paste with cmd-v. To remove a contact, find it and hit delete. A popup will appear, asking if you want to remove the contact form its current group, or erase it entirely.

Re: How to access extended lists of choices?

Re: Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll
April, I've given you countless offers to add me on Skype or FaceTime to help you fix these issues.

Re: safari or chromeVox?
Hi, To me with my style of web browsing, Chrome and Safari are just about equal. There are things i really like with Chrome, such as the fact that it seems to handle complex web pages better than Safari, not giving you so many ”busy, busy” messages. Chrome however, seems to lack the reader that Safari has and which i like to use from time to time, so i guess it’s a matter of preference. You trade off one feature for another unless of course i’m mistaken in which case i’d love to be corrected. Chrome vox is sorta half a screen reader, since it doesn’t work in menus and it looks like it can’t read the preferences of Chrome very well, but i can be wrong here. The part that works however, works quite well. You’d probably make it without using Chrome vox however but it’s there for the testing if you want to.

Re: Putting email lists in contacts
I went into contacts to see if anything has changed. For me I do not think it has. On opening Contacts I was able to navigate left to the Group list table. I could interact with this table to see all my Groups as well as the one which are there by default like All my contacts and On my Mac. . For a new group I type command shift N. For a new contact it is command N. By navigating rightwards away from the contacts group table I can get to the contacts table which corresponds to the group I have highlighted in the left table. I find that normal copy and paste and edit commands work here. The only real difference I have noticed with Yosemite contacts isn that when I am editing or creating a contact now there are now update create or cancel groups rather than buttons. This means that you have to interact with these groups before you can see the create update or cancel buttons. This is clunky and I wonder why it is necessary but not a show stopper.

Observation with Mail under Yosemite
Hi all, Just a minor but annoying observation with Mail under Yosemite. I use the preview pain to read messages. What I do is first select the message in the messages table, then press vo-j to interact with the message text. Trouble is, I cannot always read the text using standalone arrow keys; I have to close the Window, open the mailbox again, select the message, press vo-j and can read the message using standard arrow keys. Why is this? Is there a better way of reading messages? See I use the preview pain because as soon as I delete a message the next one is displayed automatically.

Re: Using an external hard drive on both Mac and Windows
I would go the fat32 route. The only restriction there is you can’t have files larger than 4 GB, and the only time you would have that is if you have large video files. This way you are not installing extra software just to use a drive.

VO pronouncing Spanish Accent marks strangely
Since upgrading to Yosemite, VO says “combining acute accent” whenever it encounters a accent mark in a spanish word. If I switch to the spanish voice it pronounces the word correctly, but when reading the spanish word with the english voice, I get that annoying phrase. It actually breaks the word in two at the accent mark and says “combining acute accent” between the two halves. Any idea where I can go to fix this so it won’t give that accent mark message? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

For me I do not think it has. On opening Contacts I was able to navigate left to the Group list table. I could interact with this table to see all my Groups as well as the one which are there by default like All my contacts and On my Mac. . For a new group I type command shift N. For a new contact it is command N. By navigating rightwards away from the contacts group table I can get to the contacts table which corresponds to the group I have highlighted in the left table. I find that normal copy and paste and edit commands work here. The only real difference I have noticed with Yosemite contacts isn that when I am editing or creating a contact now there are now update create or cancel groups rather than buttons. This means that you have to interact with these groups before you can see the create update or cancel buttons. This is clunky and I wonder why it is necessary but not a show stopper.

Re: Using an external hard drive on both Mac and Windows
I agree. In 2012, I tried to use some Mac software to let me use NTFS. It not only didn't work, it caused stability problems and I eventually just uninstalled it.

Re: Putting email lists in contacts
If you use iCloud to sync your contacts, then you need only enter things on one device. Since all contacts sync, creating two different entries for one person, one entry on each of two devices, will give you a duplicate since both are pushed to all your devices. You can just make entries on whichever device you want, and let them sync across. Once you get used to keeping this in mind, things get far easier - no need to manage things on every device, just change, add, or remove a contact once and the alteration magically appears everywhere.

Re: RadioLogicDJ Accessibility Question
While I have not used Radiologik to do a show as of yet, I can confirm that yes, you do need NiceCast to stream to a server and yes, RadioLogik is certainly *the* Station Playlist for the Mac. It does some things even better, in my opinion. There is at least one thing that should be made accessible in the app, and that is that only one method to add music to the RadioLogik radio queue exists at the moment that is accessible. You have to add your music via an iTunes applescript, which means you need music in an iTunes library. Alternatively, although this is what is not accessible, you could drag and drop your music/spots/promos from the finder in a folder of your choice into the queue. There is another way to do this from the finder that doesn’t involve Drag and Drop, but no one has figured out a way to do this. If anyone has, please reply to the thread as I’d like to know. The developer himself said that the easiest method is iTunes for now.

I have noticed a similar thing in classic view: first time I open mail, the first message I open with the return key, won't read at all. I can't use vo keys at all. I close it and immediately reopen it and everything is fine for the remainder of this session. It's curious but on the whole no big deal.

Re: shutting down a Mac Mini
Hi! Mac Mini is also using very little power so you don’t need to worry about that. /A 4 jan 2015 kl. 05:42 skrev Shawn Krasniuk bbssh...@icloud.com: I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Re: safari or chromeVox?
Hello! I use both of them. Chrome handles youtube better. I’v never seen the pause and play buttons for youtube in safari but in chrome it just works. Also as Krister mentioned it seems to handle complex websites better. /Ae 4 jan 2015 kl. 09:08 skrev Krister Ekstrom kris...@kristersplace.com: Hi, To me with my style of web browsing, Chrome and Safari are just about equal. There are things i really like with Chrome, such as the fact that it seems to handle complex web pages better than Safari, not giving you so many ”busy, busy” messages. Chrome however, seems to lack the reader that Safari has and which i like to use from time to time, so i guess it’s a matter of preference. You trade off one feature for another unless of course i’m mistaken in which case i’d love to be corrected. Chrome vox is sorta half a screen reader, since it doesn’t work in menus and it looks like it can’t read the preferences of Chrome very well, but i can be wrong here. The part that works however, works quite well. You’d probably make it without using Chrome vox however but it’s there for the testing if you want to. I don’t really know what to think yet, but i kinda feel that sometimes it’s a bit verbose, but that could probably be changed. /Krister 3 jan 2015 kl. 21:51 skrev Chris Moore chris.w...@gmail.com: Hello, I’m considering installing chromeVox, but am looking for feedback on how it works relative to safari.

Re: Observation with Mail under Yosemite
Why use vo J? I don’t know about the preview pain, but I use the first method ever introduced with standard view. I use control tab, to get to message content of a thread, and if it is a single message,I just press inter to read it. When in the message content area of a thread, when finshed, I just push shift tab twice to get me back to the messages list. I am also using my favorites 1 through 9 so there is no inter acting or having to jump back and forth to different tables to get to the desired mail box.

How do i get my contacts from my computer to icloud

I see the instructions on icloud that say to add contacts by dragging a card but if I have to drag one card at a time from the contacts application that could be not much fun at all even if it works. Where did I goof up here and what do I need to do. I'm not really panicking because the contacts are still safe and sound on my computer and contacts; it's just that I can't get them anywhere else. I could sync them by iTunes but I imagine I'll have to change settings on my devices to do this.

Solved!: How do i get my contacts from my computer to icloud
I did go ahead and sync one of my devices with iTunes and I had it just replace the contacts on the iPhone with those on the computer since there weren't any on the iPhone anyway. After I did that, things began working fine. I even added another contact from my computer and it showed up on my iPhone so iCloud is syncing. I went to the website and my newly-done contacts are now there. So hopefully this has been a success and I can keep duplicates and other problems from cropping up again by a little vigilance. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

I turned off contacts services for icloud in all my devices and computer and deleted all contacts. Then I totally redid my contacts on my computer which is a Mac running Yosemite. But when I turned on contact services again, it looked like the old contactws were loading on my iPhone so I turned contact services off. Then I actually went to iCloud on the web and deleted all contacts. Then I turned contacts services back on on my computer and one device but no contacts are going to the cloud so of course they aren't going to the device either. I see the instructions on icloud that say to add contacts by dragging a card but if I have to drag one card at a time from the contacts application that could be not much fun at all even if it works. Where did I goof up here and what do I need to do. I'm not really panicking because the contacts are still safe and sound on my computer and contacts; it's just that I can't get them anywhere else. I could sync them by iTunes but I imagine I'll have to change settings on my devices to do this. If I did sync with iTunes, would they eventually be put back in the cloud too? -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash!

possible new bug
Good evening all, For the past week, I have been experiencing an interesting bug with my new 2014 MacBook Air that I received for Christmas. I have also been able to replicate the bug on a mid 2011 MacBook Pro. I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue. If so, what did you do about it? So, here goes. This bug usually only happens in messages or mail. If I am typing in a text field and ump the trackpad in such a way that VoiceOver thinks I have performed a one finger double tap, I lose partial functionality of my keyboard. Trackpad commander must be turned on for this to occur. After the double tap, I can no longer type in text fields, press enter, quit an application, close a window, or press escape. I can command tab out of the application and work with other applications, but I cannot type in any other text field, like spotlight. I have to do a restart of the machine. It got so bad one day that my entire mail corrupted and I had to reinstall the OS. I am running the latest operating system. Has anyone else seen this?

Re: possible new bug
I have the same problem, except that the only thing I can use the keyboard for when it freezes is Voice Over commands.

Standard view, any tips?
Hi all, Any tips on using Standard view in Mail? I like the fact VoiceOver announces if a message is unread and there is a menu button to sort by date etc. So willing to give it a try.

Re: Standard view, any tips?
Hello Chris. The way I read mail is that when I get to a message that I want to read, is to press enter, stop interacting, VO left to make sure that I’m at the beginning of my messages and then VO right to start reading one message or thread. Once done, Command W to close the window to return me to the list of messages and press Back Space to delete that particular thread or message. Thanks. Kawal.
