Re: The switch from Microsoft to Apple
Hi all, I wanted to dive in on this conversation. Since I got the mac back 6 years ago, I have exclusively used voice over. With tries and certain frustrations with android, but the latter device has its own potential. Huge one in fact. Back to the mac. Since the inception of voice over device non specific, voice over has allowed everyone to access applications on the creative side used by the same machines. And one big adbvantage for quite a few of us, I tend to think, is that it is unix based. This allows for the mac voice over system, layer on top of layer on top of unix, reads very well on different command line tools, developer apps, x-code etc. It can’t be easier to connect to linux in all its flavours, and machine code can be equally interpreted. The graphics issue is algorithmic. There is no visual perception algorithms in any of voice over. Which I tend to hope Apple is working on, though I’m not 100% sure at this moment. I also found a windows executable wrapper wine while searching for multi processing and memory reading. This effectively allows us to connect into the function calls interpreted by the mac. Which makes both platforms very synbiotic. They both have a history that I will not mention or detail now. Here are what is still missing in voice over: -The capability to listen to the personal account server protecting your media, images, projects, work, pictures, etc. Mirrorring or duplications are made at Apple and we have no idea what it does and where it goes, and everything is collected en masse. It’s truly frightening but its still something a few companies like Apple or Google advocate. One less before in the current under tinges coming out of that head office. In the name of freedom. -Connectivity apps between server and iphone for voice over specific use. Developers I’m sure you’re on it. Me too. For this, I thank Apple. -A true 3D audio dimension that takes out of gfx algorithms and can be zero summed with full GFX (GFX being more of the layers that compose the phone’s graphics engine. -A series of blind community connectivity worldwide that allows a large number of individuals to play World of Warcraft, or audio training games for those early in the notion of sound. using voice over’s engine. - A semantics algorithm that picks up through the microphone an individual’s words, clicks, phonemes in fast or slow, sky’s the limit, then acts upon various tasks recorded in advance. Scripting can be applied to this. As modules beyond, our macs, those home servers we have are capable of providing so much more information so much faster. So our phones can stay nominal in processing. -The ability to use an infrared system to point our hands around with small gestures enacting INTUITIVE. I didn’t quote, I large blocked this. INTUITIVE gestures. -The list above is being worked on, and I am actively seeking blind programmers who wish to try a beta of an accessible world of warcraft.

Re: The switch from Microsoft to Apple
I workaround the lack of the ability to open folders with a specific app. For sound in this case I use the free VLC Media Player from www.videolan.org http://www.videolan.org/ I then press command-o which is a standard Mac OS X shortcut to open a file or folder of files. I select my sound folder, press return, and VLC will make a playlist with those sound files for me. Think of this as the Winamp on steroids for Mac OS X. There is VLC Media Player for Windows, but accessibility leaves a lot to be desired in my personal opinion. So I use Winamp on the Windows side.

I tried considering numeric strings set _newEnough to _versionString ≥ “10.10.1 end considering I get the error The variable _versionString is not defined. Pretty much what I want is to check the OS version. If it’s 10.10.1, it will run, otherwise, it should display that the script can run only on Yosemite then exit. How best can I achieve this?

Re: RadioLogicDJ Accessibility Question
Hi, Last time i looked at Radiologik a couple months ago there was no way whatsoever to read the music playlists or queues with Voiceover so you never knew what would come up next when you played something. I talked to the developer about that and he said that it would take a whole rewriting of the code to make this accessible and so i more or less gave up on Radiologik DJ. Has anything changed? /Krister 4 jan 2015 kl. 22:26 skrev Joshua Tubbs ori...@icloud.com: 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.

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: Using an external hard drive on both Mac and Windows
Hello all, Yes, you are correct. The Mac only will read NTFS drives, it will not write to them. There are both free and paid applications that let you achieve this task, I personally use paragon NTFS, which was $20. You simply plug in the drive, and go. I almost forgot it was on my Mac, until that is, I had to reinstall the OS. Matt Dierckens Assistive technology specialist Macintosh trainer Sent from my iPhone On Jan 5, 2015, at 08:00, Jonathan C.

Re: VO Space not activating items
Hi, Do you have specifics on what/when this occurs? Remember that VO-space is defined as “Default Action”, not exactly mouse-click, so it won’t always do what you expect if that is not the default action. There are also consistent situations where the VO-space needs to be replaced with VO-shift-space which performs a virtual mouse-click and can be repeated in quick succession to perform the double-click function. It’s often necessary to ensure that the mouse cursor has properly been brought to the VO focused item when performing mouse-clicks as well. This is accomplished by pressing VO-cmd-f5. Depending on your keyboard settings, you may also need to add the FN key to this combination. Later...

Re: reading bookshare xml files
Hi. Normally, I use Voice Dream Reader on my iPhone to read books from Bookshare. However, I have heard that if you read XML renderings of the text, you get important information such as accurate hardcopy page numbers, etc. Since I will soon be using Bookshare content for graduate courses, this is important, I would think.

Re: some calendar issues on osx 10.10.1 and iOS 8.1.2
Hi, After entering the description info for the event, as in, “Meet with Bob at 10:00 am on Friday”, press return. If focus is not already in the proper area, use the Window Chooser VO-f2-f2 and you’ll see the event info. When in the specific event window, you can add all the specifics you need such as Location, modifying the exact time parameters, invited people, notification settings and much more. Think of the initial entry field as a “Quick Entry” field and all the important details are entered in the specific event window. I would assume that this is purposeful so that basic events can be added extremely quickly and more complex events need the more detailed window. Later...

Re: Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll
April, As mentioned, a re-format and re-install will likely do nothing to help with these issues. In the case of the VO-a command, which app or apps is this present in? Were you Interacting with the text area when you initiated the VO-a command? In order for the VO-a command to work properly, you normally need to have interacted with the text area. Interacting with text areas also aids when using the VO-f (Find) command. Realize that if you are using plain arrow navigation, which often works in many instances, you have not actually interacted with the text area and thus VO focus is not specifically directed at the text within this area. Therefore, when initiating some of these commands, there is nothing specific for VO to pay attention to. Regarding the scrolling issues, I don’t commonly use those functions so am unable to comment.

Re: VO Space not activating items
Hi, It sounds like either Cursor Tracking is turned off or that your cursors are not following each other. People prefer cursor following in numerous ways and that is probably why these settings are configurable. Consider that, if your keyboard cursor is not following the VO cursor, attempting to enter data in an Edit field could be frustrating since the keyboard would be focused somewhere else instead of where VO is focused. As you mentioned, check these out in the Navigation area of the VO Utility. If you have turned off Cursor Tracking for some reason (VO-shift-f3) and have not turned it back on, these sorts of frustrations and confusion can happen a lot. To make things quicker for you, I suggest you do the following when using the System Preferences app. Like you’ve been doing, press VO-m to go up to the Apple menu, arrow down once then press “s” “y” quickly. VO should announce system Preferences at which time you should press return and System Prefs will open. Press tab once which will bring keyboard focus into the Scroll area and then just press the first letter or two of the System Pref you want to access. For example, after pressing tab once and entering the Scroll area, VO will usually announce “General”, typing the letter “u” jumps you to the Users Groups button. You can then press VO-space or just space and that pane will open. Use VO navigation after that to do whatever needs done. HTH. Later...

I arrow down to system prefs, at this point I hit VO space, nothing happens unless I press return.

On Jan 5, 2015, at 9:15 AM, Tim Kilburn kilbu...@me.com wrote: Hi, Do you have specifics on what/when this occurs? Remember that VO-space is defined as “Default Action”, not exactly mouse-click, so it won’t always do what you expect if that is not the default action. There are also consistent situations where the VO-space needs to be replaced with VO-shift-space which performs a virtual mouse-click and can be repeated in quick succession to perform the double-click function. It’s often necessary to ensure that the mouse cursor has properly been brought to the VO focused item when performing mouse-clicks as well. This is accomplished by pressing VO-cmd-f5. Depending on your keyboard settings, you may also need to add the FN key to this combination. Later...

I was running xp and would’ve had to get a new pc in order to run windows 7. the only thing agrivating me so far is that I can’t use “open with” for sound folders, only for files. I kind of miss webvisum in Firefox too. On Jan 5, 2015, at 1:20 AM, christopher hallsworth challswor...@icloud.com wrote: Hi all, Well I have some excellent news! I did it!

Re: The switch from Microsoft to Apple
I agree there’s no shame in using windows. I would’ve had to learn a bunch of new stuff any way I went though since I was still running xp. maybe at some point I’ll install the new windows or Vinux on this Mac.

Re: Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll
That's fine Shawn. When someone who has working ears, as well as eyes, is available to help me, then they can call someone to get get help for it. At this point, I can actually still rely on my pin dot better than my hearing, which really doesn't work at all on phones or other electronic equipment. In order for what you are recommending to work, someone would have to type your words out so I could read them.

Re: Audio restoration of old cassettes
Hi Mike, Amadeus does a great job of this, and it's one of the things that will be covered in my tutorial I'll be releasing shortly. The trick is to take a sample of the noise you want to reduce so the noise reduction knows what it's dealing with. Jonathan Mosen Mosen Consulting Blindness technology eBooks, tutorials and training http://Mosen.org On 30/12/2014, at 2:16 am, Mike Busboom mbusb...@gmail.com wrote: Greetings to all of you, I have a large cassette library of recordings that I started making in the early 70s, and I want to digitize them. I have already transferred many of them to .wav files but for storage constraints, I already have converted many of them, hiss, crackles and all, to MP3. None of these cassettes was recorded in stereo; I didn’t even own a stereo microphone at the time. I recently purchased Amadeus Pro, and it has a built-in plug-in for dealing with cassettes. However, I think I am screwing up on the normalization process and what levels to set volume, etc. It is obvious that I am an amateur at this. What I want to do is remove the hiss, as well as the loud volume that occurs for about 1/10 second after a pause in the audio. Can this be accomplished with Amadeus Pro as is, or do I need to buy something else? One very helpful person who occasionally posts to this list, recommended a program called RS, but he seemed to lament the company’s plans for future versions, where accessibility is concerned. If Amadeus Pro will do what I need, then I suspect that I wouldn’t need RS. If anyone can give me the best parameters for working with Amadeus Pro or thoughts using a different approach or different program, I’d be grateful.

Re: coaching in terminal
You can start with /Users (note the slash in front) but usually when you open terminal you are in your home directory you can just start with the directory. For instance from my home directory: open -a /Applications/VLC.app Music/Classical I made this up but this should give you an example. If this doesn't work, tell what the directory is and I can send you an exact example to past into Terminal. Also remember that when typing you can tab to have it complete. Fore example, once you type VL you can probably tab and it will complete VLC.app but there will be a slash after that and no space so you would have to space before typing the directory. The same with /applications. You can type /App and do a tab and it should compete /Applications with a slash after that and of course then you can start VLC.app without spacing. Voiceover should echo enough for you to know what you are doing. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash!

Over the holidays i lost the emails that were sent reguarding the capslock remapped for linux. I used the applevis article that claims to remap a key to the insert key, but it was meant for a windows vm i think because it didn’t remap my ` to the insert key as it claims to do. Someone who deals with applevis should note that to this article that it does not work for linux.

Re: Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll
When you say a list of 4 emails, I’m assuming you are talking about a conversation or thread regarding the same subject. If so, When you’re done reading that message, stop interacting until you hear the senders name, then VO+RIGHT ARROW to get to the next message in the conversation/thread. You will hear the next senders name. interact with that message to read it. Repeat this until you’ve read them all. Hope this helps.

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.

Re: Voiceover Accessibility of DevonThink 2.8.2
I thought it sounded like a great concept 3 years ago, but I never quite figured out the interface. There are a couple of Take Control books on using this application and others like it to reduce your dependence on paper records. At least some versions of the package include Abby Fine Reader to create indexable PDF files. It would be good to know if the OCR results are reasonable and if they include UA features.

I have already transferred many of them to .wav files but for storage constraints, I already have converted many of them, hiss, crackles and all, to MP3. None of these cassettes was recorded in stereo; I didn’t even own a stereo microphone at the time. I recently purchased Amadeus Pro, and it has a built-in plug-in for dealing with cassettes. However, I think I am screwing up on the normalization process and what levels to set volume, etc. It is obvious that I am an amateur at this. What I want to do is remove the hiss, as well as the loud volume that occurs for about 1/10 second after a pause in the audio. Can this be accomplished with Amadeus Pro as is, or do I need to buy something else? One very helpful person who occasionally posts to this list, recommended a program called RS, but he seemed to lament the company’s plans for future versions, where accessibility is concerned. If Amadeus Pro will do what I need, then I suspect that I wouldn’t need RS. If anyone can give me the best parameters for working with Amadeus Pro or thoughts using a different approach or different program, I’d be grateful.

Re: Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll
Hi Tim, Yes. I have intereacted. All four levels in LibreOfficere, and as far as it will go in other applications. The key combos, the trackpad combos, and nummpad combos do not work in any application, including Mail, Pages, Libre Office, PDF's, or Word for the Mac. For instance in Libre Office: Interaction goes through two scroll areas, a document view, and into edit text. The Vo A and Vo B commands do not work in any of these areas. Though, to be honest, I''m not sure what level I need to be interacting in. It's a guessing game. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Aspects of VoiceOver not working - Read All, Read down, VOJ and Scroll

Re: The switch from Microsoft to Apple
Me neither. I still like some voices that you can't get on the Mac like Ivona and Neospeech, particularly James. Though Ivona keeps promising that they are working on bringing their voices to the Mac, I'll believe it when I see it. I think that all of us who like their voices should keep bothering them to make their voices for Mac like I have for the past couple of years. Emails, tweets, whatever. It has to be done if we want our voices heard. Shawn Sent From My White MacBook On Jan 5, 2015, at 4:48 AM, Devin Prater d.pra...@me.com wrote: I doubt I'll ever switch completely.

Re: possible new bug
Hi, In Messages, I was able to duplicate your issue, but not in Mail. It certainly was frustrating how the keyboard seemed to be disabled although VO functions on the keyboard did appear to work normally. Here’s some info and easier workaround for you. • If I was Interacting with the text area when typing my message, the problem didn’t occur. • If I was just entering text without the Interaction, then the keyboard became more or less useless except for VO navigation. Rather odd, but I haven’t figured out why one part would work and another wouldn’t, other than my possible explanation below. • Going into other apps like Terminal still would not allow keyboard use and things like cmd-q to Quit were unresponsive. • total pain in the behind. But, I bet that you were already aware of most of this. My quick workaround so that you don’t need to restart your machine is the following: • turn Trackpad commander off right away with VO keys down and a two finger twist counter-clockwise. • Click your trackpad button. This will put you back into one of the visible apps you have open such as the Finder and giving you control again. What I think is happening is that the accidental double-tap of the trackpad puts you into some other layer that is normally not cycled through either with cmd-tab or the Application Chooser. Things like Google Drive or Adobe Updater often work this way but are normally more easily got out of with the cmd-tab whereas this layer is a little more problematic. You are welcome to add any of this info to your ticket to Apple Accessibility if it would assist in rectifying the problem. HTH.

Re: The switch from Microsoft to Apple
I agree with you. The only reason I open the Windows side is for the Office suites. I have tried the iWorks suite for the Mac, but it doesn't offer me the vast options in Word to mark up a document.

Re: VO pronouncing Spanish Accent marks strangely
Hai, It is because in the pdf file vo places the accent begind the caracter, just if it is another caracter. I had the same problem and the same solution.

When I copy the text into a textedit window, the accent marks no longer cause problems. I don’t understand it, but I think my work around will be to simply copy the pdf text into a textedit doc and read it there. On Jan 4, 2015, at 6:15 PM, Jonathan C.

That this feature isn't present you said, seems strange to me. In ios, you can press teh list button in day-view and there you can see all future events, also recurring events are included and past events aren't shown.

It certainly was frustrating how the keyboard seemed to be disabled although VO functions on the keyboard did appear to work normally. Here’s some info and easier workaround for you. • If I was Interacting with the text area when typing my message, the problem didn’t occur. • If I was just entering text without the Interaction, then the keyboard became more or less useless except for VO navigation. Rather odd, but I haven’t figured out why one part would work and another wouldn’t, other than my possible explanation below. • Going into other apps like Terminal still

this works the same for me in classic view. On Jan 5, 2015, at 7:05 AM, Aleeha Dudley blindcowgirl1...@gmail.com wrote: I just got my mac and standard view is all I will use. I don’t even interact with the table. I just arrow around, without the VoiceOver keys, to see the messages. You can right arrow on a thread to open it, and press enter on a message you want to open. VoiceOver will then read the message, which you can navigate with your arrow keys. Press command w when done reading and perform the appropriate action on the message.
