Re: Deactivating my MBP's Track Pad

[Grant Hardy]

Another thing you could try is enabling Mouse Keys in accessibility 
preferences, available from the System Preferences app. This normally allows 
the mouse to be controllable using keyboard keys. There is an option to ignore 
the built-in trackpad when you’ve enabled Mouse Keys.

Best,

Grant

Hello,
Is it possible to disable the trackpad on my MBP? If so, what’s the procedure 
to do so?
TIA.

Re: messages app revisited

[christopher hallsworth]

Not here. At my end I only see contacts and calendar in the applications table 
for my Facebook account. I guess then the below isn't true at all for Facebook. 
Anyway, I use Skype for all my instant messaging needs. I have linked it to 
both Facebook and Microsoft so can chat to all my friends in one client.

Re: iTunes Match: do you keep matched tracks after your Match ends?

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Matched are considered different than Purchased to iTunes, so those Matched 
items you’ve downloaded to the local machine will remain yours to use and only 
Purchased media will be available from the Cloud if you discontinue.

Re: Audio Book Builder transferring books

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

When in the Music app, on the main page, double-tap the More button, then 
double-tap the Edit button.  Drag the items you want in the tabs along the 
bottom to their place.  To drag, double-tap and hold then drag it.

Re: The switch from Microsoft to Apple

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

OS X is decidedly the technically superior OS, but alas, I am back to running 
with the herd now, despite the inconveniences and compromises that you 
naturally get in exchange for the over-promised and under-delivered features 
and customisation in Windows, and contrary to the bizarre idea that a platform 
is simply better because you can do more with it.  OS X is simply a more 
enjoyable, seamless and satisfying environment than Windows will ever be, and 
is built on a rock-solid foundation that you can exploit to full potential if 
you desire.  Unfortunately, the pleasures of OS X will be no more for me at the 
point where Apple stops supporting Mountain Lion, assuming no further 
developments of technical merit, innovation of the screen reader, or concern 
for the advanced user.  My MacBook now runs Windows 7 exclusively, as that's 
simply the better choice across the board now for me, and I only run OS X 
Mountain Lion on this iMac 2011 because I can do so and still get the best 
value from it and many OS X apps.  I also, no doubt about it, relish in what I 
consider to be one of Apple's finer releases, after a fairly shaky start, and 
will miss it terribly when finally I have to abandon it.  All my other needs 
are taken care of by Linux, running in virtual machines; I've even converted my 
home Mac Mini server into a Linux box.  And I now have a ChromeBook, to 
experiment with the future of cloudy clients.

Having said all that, please choose your platforms objectively and don't simply 
run one platform or another in order to conform, because you just lose out in 
the end if you restrict yourself.  There are lots of people I hear of who are 
on Windows XP running on metal, who absolutely should be using OS X, because 
they will never go to Win7 to save themselves.  I'll gladly get them using OS 
X, and they get to keep their classic Start menu and working apps, especially 
gaming and Office, in a XP VM.  Otherwise, virtualisation is a thing, so use it 
to give yourself access to even more apps on the same machine when it's 
convenient, in Windows or, if you're feeling plucky, Linux.  Such a pity OS X 
cannot be virtualised, outside of OS X itself, without going down shady routes.

JMO, of course.

Ipod Nano Syncing question

[Sarai Bucciarelli]

Hi:
I have an iPod 6th gen Nano and iTunes 12. I’m trying to figure out how to sync 
specific songs from one album.
I have chosen iPod nano, and the music playlist. I move back to the left and 
interact with the scroll area. I see the tables for albums, artust, genre. I 
can interact with the table, arrow down and press space to select then sync; 
however I cannot figure out how to only select specific songs in an album to 
transfer?
Another question, is it just me, or is first letter navigation not working in 
those tables? IE if I wanted to transfer Enya artist, I cannot press e. I have 
to down arrow.
Thanks!

Re: iTunes Match: do you keep matched tracks after your Match ends?

Re: iTunes Match: do you keep matched tracks after your Match ends?

Thanks. I'm guessing files it can't match will no longer be based in the cloud

DVD Player

[The Believer]

   Installed Mac DVD Ripper which is working nicely. But even tho I set 
DVD Player (Mavericks) to not open when a disc is inserted, it still 
pops up and says initialization error. Once I press the Ok button, the 
ripper gets to work.


   I see no other preferences for DVD Player so am sure I did not miss 
anything. Is there something else I need to set?


From The Believer. . .
 . . . what if it were true?

Re: Yosemite and a Dead Finder / Partitian an Active Drive

[Jeff Berwick]

Thanks Tim,

I was in a bit of a panic yesterday and I expected the Apple genius to say 
exactly what you just did.  However, he didn't and I took a chance on 
partitioning my drive and reinstalling on the new partition.  The process 
worked flawlessly and I migrated all my info and apps over.  When I woke up 
this morning, I was back in business.

Thanks for the info though, I'll be better prepared and more willing to take 
the risk next time.  Wish those geniuses would say more than - I don't know 
what is wrong, it could be software or hardware and we need to keep your laptop 
for three days and charge you $100 to backup your data...Looks like they just 
want the money and not necessarily to help.

Thx,
Jeff

Re: messages app revisited

[Faisal ali]

Hi tim,
Unfortunately, windows live messenger wasn’t in the list of messages provider. 
Oh well, guess I’ll have to stick with adaium.
also, I take it there is no way to set up notifications of online contacts in 
messages?
Thanks

Re: iTunes Match: do you keep matched tracks after your Match ends?

[John Panarese]

   iTunes match will basically copy everything you have in your iTunes library 
that is available in the iTunes store. If you have tracks that are not 
available in the iTunes store, it will upload a copy to your iCloud library.

   Once you have Match, you can choose to download better versions of the 
tracks that ou have in your library. You keep those even if you choose to 
cancel the service.

iTunes Match: do you keep matched tracks after your Match ends?

[Alex Hall]

Hi all,
Quick question. If I got iTunes Match, it will upload all music I have that 
iTunes doesn't, and "match" music it does have, essentially considering the 
matched songs purchased. If I discontinue Match after the first year, would I 
keep the matched music? That is, after I stop using Match, will that music 
still be considered purchased in my account? Thanks.

Re: remapping the capslock for linux

[Chris Moore]

Hi Deedra,
The purpose of these two programs is to remap the caps lock to an insert key in 
your vm.  As I recall, the correct code is 110 (not 50).  Of course, you need 
to disable the caps lock behavior in mac keyboard preferences.  You also don’t 
need to do any key mappings in vmware preferences.  
The whole point of remapping capslock is to give you an insert key to use in 
windows screen readers like nvda and jaws.  This insert key is also recognized 
by orce in linux but sadly not by speakup.  However,  Karabiner gives you a 
numpad which speakup does in fact recognize.  

I wish there were better documentation on all of this, but I think you’re 
almost there!

Re: Audio Book Builder transferring books

Hi,

Was there a checkbox that said “Sync Audio Books”?  Did you check it  if it was 
there?  Was there an item where you could choose between syncing all books or 
only selected ones?

Re: messages app revisited

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Setting up FaceBook Chat on the Mac is easily done when you use the Internet 
Accounts Preference pane in System Preferences.  All you really need is your 
FaceBook login and password, the rest is done by the setup app.  I believe that 
it is automatically set up as a Jabber protocol client so I’d guess that it 
needs to be.  Regarding Windows Live, I’m fairly sure that this needs to be 
done using the Skype app with Messenger built-in.  Live Mail is configurable in 
Apple Mail but I don’t believe that the Messenger can work this way.  You could 
certainly give it a try yourself when in the Internet Accounts pane of System 
Preferences, choosing Other and choosing a messaging account.

HTH.

Braille translation settings on iOS devices?

[Chenelle Hancock]

Hello everyone,
This is Chenelle, I wanted to know when you're using a refreshable braille 
display on I was device such as: iPhone, iPod touch, iPad mini or iPad?
Can you download bro translation programs for other languages suchS French, 
Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic or Russian? Reason for my asking for this 
question is because, I am learning Russian and I want to learn Russian braille 
so I can read or write Russian. There are no resources in the US for which I 
can access the Russian Cyrillic alphabet. I do not own and A Windows computer. 
I only have a Mac. Mike took Sperry program with my Romeo embosser will not 
work with my Mac. Furthermore, the only way I would be able to access materials 
and Russian Brio is to write to the library for the blind in Moscow Russia.

messages app revisited

[Faisal ali]

Hi,
I’ve got Facebook chat set up on my messages app under jabber. Is it possible 
to set it up by forgoing jabber? the set up process was pretty complicated as I 
recall and not exactly the most straight forward thing on the mac. also, I 
understand that Adium can handle window live messenger but I’m wondering if 
this could also be set up in messages? And finally, is it possible to have 
notifications set up when new contacts go online?
I want to use this app more regularly and cut out other apps like Adium.
Thanks

Re: Audio Book Builder transferring books

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

You can also customize this so that Audio Books is one of the tabs along the 
bottom so that you don’t need to use more.  It all depends on which of those 
items you use the most. Since I often listen to Audio Books on my phone, I’ve 
put it along the bottom for my iPhone.

Re: iTunes 12 and downloads in iTunes match.

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

You must first delete the copy of the mp3 on your local machine.  Then, as long 
as you didn’t tell iTunes to remove it from the Cloud, it will be available for 
download the same as in previous versions of iTunes.  Also, you must have the 
“Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases” box checked in the iTunes Preferences 
under the Store pane.

Best.

Just in case you don't know - and forgive me if you do - on idevices audiobooks 
can be found when you activate "more" tab.  Otherwise you won't find them under 
music.

iTunes 12 and downloads in iTunes match.

[Gabriele Battaglia]

Hi all.
I’m a subscriber of an iTunes match account. Before I was able to replace my 
old mp3 file with a copy of them downloaded from the could, which is at 256 
KBPS.

Now, on the iTunes 12 last release, the download option is no longer available 
within the context menu.
How Can I do?

Any suggestion will be very appreciated.
Gabriel.

Re: how to add events from emails into calendar

[Andrew Lamanche]

I wonder whether it is necessary to interact with the text first in order to 
carry out the vo+space command as Tim says.  The interacting with the text of 
the body of the message is necessary to activate links in a message so I feel 
that maybe that's what needs to happen.

Re: can't add Google account to messenbger

Hi Donna,

Instead of doing this in Messages, do the following:

• Go to System Preferences.
• Click on Internet Accounts.
• From the Internet Accounts table, select your Google account.
• Stop interacting with the Internet Accounts table and navigate right to the 
Applications table.
• Interact with this table.
• Navigate down and check the box for Messages.

Normally that does it.  After that change is applied, GoogleTalk with your 
Google account should be one of the accounts within Messages.

HTH.

Re: how to add events from emails into calendar

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

OK, things appear to be a little different when it is an “Event Detected” kind 
of thing.  After a bit of investigation, here’s how we’d accomplish this with 
VO:

• highlight/select the text related to the event.  VO should still announce 
“Event Detected” when reading the highlighted text.
• Press VO-shift-m to bring up the Contextual menu.
• Choose QuickLook Event from this menu.

>From this QuickLook window, you can edit the necessary fields related to the 
>event and also directly add the event to Calendar by pressing the Add to 
>Calendar button.

Re: remapping the capslock for linux

[deedra waters]

Ok so seil and karabiner are installed. I changed the capslock keycode to 50 
since i want it to be the  accent key. I have the capslock mapped to the accent 
key in the vm. I’m running in circles here people, I have no way still to get 
the capslock to pass to the vm wtf is going on here? you guys say this is 
doable but right now i see no way to get it to pass to the vm as a capslock key 
and i “have” to get this thing working, suggestions please?

Again, i changed the capslock to 50 in seil, then mapped the accent key back to 
the capslock key in carabiner though this seems a bit screwed up in the mapping 
department. Then i went to vmware and mapped the accent to the capslock but 
it’s still not passing through. So what the heck am i doing wrong. Is this even 
doable or do i need to toss the apple keyboard in favor of a windows one. If i 
have to do that I’m going to be extremely upset.

Re: how to add events from emails into calendar

If I am in the body of a message and VO says event detected, I am not able to 
VO space on it to make it add to the calendar.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the 
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the 
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between 
blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not

Re: Audio Book Builder transferring books

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

You are selecting the incorrect Audio Books item.  When your iPhone is 
selected, navigate right once past the Scroll area to the Playlists table.  
Interact with it and move down to select Audio Books there then stop 
interacting with the table.  Navigate left to the Scroll area and interact with 
it and it should read info about your Audio Book syncing settings.  Make sure 
that it is set to sync Audio Books and if you wish to simply transfer a 
specific Audio Book or books to your iPhone, check the box for Syncing Only 
selected Audio Books and check the books you wish synced from within the 
corresponding table.

HTH.

Re: Braille and Spanish

[Anne Robertson]

Hello,

You can switch activities at any time. VO-x brings up the Activities menu. I 
have an activity with low verbosity and lots of other things turned off which 
is used automatically for Mail, but sometimes I switch to it in Safari because 
what I’m reading is too cluttered with links and such. The beauty of activities 
when switching languages is that it can change both Braille and the voice at 
the same time.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Audio Book Builder transferring books

[Sarai Bucciarelli]

Hello:
I’m still not having any luck. Yes, my book shows up in itunes 12 under audio 
books, but it will not sync to my phone. Here is what I do. I have iTunes 12, 
and an iPhone 5s.
I have manually manage content checked.
I connect the cable to my Mac, and iPhone. I open iTunes. I navigate past the 
music radio button, and go to the more pop up. I choose audio books, and press 
vo space. I vo right arrow over to the my audio books and make sure it says 
selected. I vo right arrow again until I hear book grid no selection. I 
interact wit the grid and hear my audio book title: it says 1 of 1. There is no 
check box here. I make sure VO says selected though. I vo right arrow past the 
iPhone pop up button until I hear scroll area. I interact with that scroll 
area. I go to the end, stop interacting, go across until I hear the sync 
button. I vo space on sync. Itunes dings, I eject phone, and I have no book on 
phone.
What am I doing wrong?

Re: Yosemite and a Dead Finder / Partitian an Active Drive

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Does your Mac start up from the Recovery Partition?  If so, things should work 
out OK, otherwise, you may have bigger problems.  A couple things to note.  
Re-installing over the existing MacOS will 99 times out of 100 just do exactly 
that.  You will not lose a thing, it will just install the OS components, and 
you’re good to go.  If you do wish to partition your disk, you can also do this 
from the Disk Utility app within the Recovery Partition.  You will need to 
select the drive itself when in Disk Utility, not the volume name.  Then select 
the Partition tab and enter the size you wish to make your original partition.  
For example, on your 2 TB drive, you can say you wish the current partition to 
be 1000 GB or 1 TB and apply your changes.  This will leave the rest of your HD 
unallocated.  Click the Add Partition button and apply your changes and a new 
partition will be created using the full unallocated space and your original 
partition will be untouched.

HTH.

Re: Mysterious

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

For Contacts, stop Interacting with the Scroll area where you were editing the 
contact info, then navigate right to find the “Done” button.  Alternatively, 
just close the Contacts window or app and it will save automatically.

Re: how to add events from emails into calendar

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Normally, if you just VO-space on the event, it will open Calendar and it will 
be added from there.  Occasionally though, .ICS attachments from Outlook give 
sync errors thus a little unreliable.

Printing Envelopes from Contacts

[Phil Halton]

Anne,
I just followed your very detailed and concise directions for printing 
envelopes from the Contacts app and am very pleased with the results. It would 
have been a real tough one to figure out without your directions. I’ve put them 
into a message with a better subject line for archival purposes.
Thanks again.

Envelope printing directions are below:

 Hello Phil,

The step-by-step instructions are below my signature. For printing labels, 
select Labels instead of Envelopes in the Style popup menu.

Cheers,

Anne

Use Contacts to address envelopes.
Put required cards into a special group for the current task.

• Put the selected card or cards into a new group;
• Press Command-P to bring up the Print dialogue;
• Navigate to the last visible item (VO-End) then go left twice. If you find 
Show Details button, click it;
• Go to the first visible item (VO-Home) and navigate down to Style;
• Go right to the pop up button;
• Pop it and select "Envelopes" if it is not already saying "Envelopes";
• Navigate right to Layout and select it;
• Navigate right past the other two tabs and click the button to the right of 
where it says "layout" again;
• Navigate down the menu, past Save as, delete and so on, until you find either 
International envelopes or North American Envelopes submenu;
• Select the appropriate envelope type;
• Navigate right to see the exact dimensions of the envelope, the position and 
size of the recipient's address panel (how far from top, how far from left and 
how big);
• Continue to navigate right, past the field telling you the number of 
addresses selected and the zoom slider and you'll find the position and size of 
the Sender address panel;
• Use the Item Chooser menu to locate the Label tab and select it;
• Navigate right to the checkbox "Print my address", clear this checkbox if you 
don't want your address to appear on the envelope;
• Navigate right to the address category pop up button and select the one you 
want to send from (Home, Work, etc.);
• Navigate right to the Addresses pop up button where you select the category 
of address for the recipient(s);
• To the right again, you select the print order (alphabetical or Postal Code);
• Continuing right, you can select to print your company name, the recipient's 
company name, both or neither;
• To the right again, the same thing for country as for company;
• To the right again, you select font colour (default black);
• Now use the Item Chooser menu to select the Orientation tab;
• The first checkbox to the right shows the printing to be perpendicular to the 
feed direction of the envelope, and the second checkbox shows it to be parallel;
• You can now print your envelope.

Fortunately, Contacts remembers the settings for next time!

Re: Pages questions.

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Sean,

As in any other text on the Mac, VO-t will give you the text attributes such as 
font, font size, font colour, text alignment and whether it’s bold or italic.

If you set a hotspot on the paragraph styles button, you can find out the 
current paragraph style without leaving the text area.

Hotspots can be used to monitor other fields as well, such as the X and Y 
coordinates of an element.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Audio Book Builder transferring books

[Andrew Lamanche]

Hi,

I also use Audiobook Builder and love it.  In my case I have it set up in such 
a way that once I press "create audiobook" button in the last stage of it being 
created, the application will put it in its separate playlist in itunes called 
Audiobook Builder.  So see whether you can find a playlist called that.  Then 
if you want to have this book on your idevices, you need to sync them manually 
and make sure that you sync the audiobook builder playlist.

Re: pdf or regular text document as audio book?

[Andrew Lamanche]

Hi,

Yes, you can do it with any text without having to use any other application, 
and I know many people on the list have been doing this.  There's also an 
application called GhostReader Plus from www.assistiveware.com  that is 
specifically designed to do this.  It has other functions as well.
