Re: integrated programming environment

Hi.
It's not an IDE but as a text Editor for programming is good: Textmate.

I've a question: do you know if XCode might be used to programming in 
Python as well?

Re: email headers

I have use smart addresses unchecked, but I may be having the same problem 
still. The only way I can think of to work around this is to interact with the 
message headers, interact with the text, cursor to the email address I want 
then copy the last phrase VoiceOver spoke.

Re: integrated programming environment

2015-02-13 Thread BobH.
Python's greatest difficulty is the nesting  levels are dependent on equal 
indentation.  I remember the old Borland Turbo packages managing this quite 
well, but I prefer languages that use written syntax using {} or keywords to 
denote it, so you know precisely where you are as you navigate around and 
read the text, without having to try calculating blank indentation as well.

PHP is a doddle and love it for that, and do all I need with it, including 
write online games.

Re: Some External Hard Drive Questions

2015-02-13 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
If you don't mind a little terminal hacking and your TM volume can be 
500GB or less then this article talks about how to create a sparsebundle 
disk image on an exFAT formatted drive. exFAT means you can read the 
drive on Mac or Windows and the sparsebundle hack means time machine can 
mount its own fake drive to do its backups. The 500MB limit comes from 
the exFAT format not supporting more than 65K files in a single directory.

Re: Reading a PDF in Preview

2015-02-13 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi y'all 
With PDf Pen Pro 7.0.2, and you need the Pro version for this, I like using it 
instead of Preview these days for reading PDF files. With the pro version, you 
can quickly convert them to several different formats like Word, Excel, plain 
text, and rtf. It uploads the file and it's almost immediate to get the file 
converted. It didn't work so well yesterday on a state tax form, but that's 
just the nature of the beast. The program will O C R image files, too. I did 
have the experience of doing vo down arrow and having PDF Pen Pro read the 
filled out text. Preview was fighting me on doing that, and the only way I 
could hear what had been filled in was to listen to a whole bunch of the tax 
form first before I got to the good part I wanted.

When you find the Word Count, you’ll see that it’s a button and clicking it 
will give you other options such as Character count. You find the Word Count 
button to the right of the document layout area.

Change the Mac Ringtone Sound for Incoming iPhone FaceTime Calls

Change the Mac Ringtone Sound for Incoming iPhone  FaceTime Calls

Feb 10, 2015 - 7 Comments
   
  Now that the Continuity feature allows the Mac to receive incoming calls from 
your associated iPhone, in addition to standard FaceTime video and audio chat, 
you may want to take a moment to customize the ringtone that sounds when a call 
is coming to a particular Mac. This is particularly helpful with multiple-Mac 
environments with different users, or even with multiple Macs and iOS devices 
using the same ID that may ring at the same time, since it will differentiate 
each machine.


Changing the Macs ringtone for inbound iPhone calls and for FaceTime calls is 
quite simple, both are actually handled the same way, so if you change one then 
you will change the sound effect for both.


  
Open the FaceTime app in OS X and pull down the “FaceTime” menu, then choose 
“Preferences”
Near the bottom of the preference panel, open the Ringtone drop down menu and 
choose the ringtone of choice to set to that Mac
Selecting a ringtone will also play a preview of that sound effect. The sound 
will loop as the call rings, so be aware of that and how it may impact your 
preference.



The default choice is “Opening”, which is also the default on iOS devices. 
You’ve probably noticed this already, but if you have all of your Apple 
hardware set up with Continuity and using the same FaceTime account and 
Cellular Calling feature, they will all ring in chorus together unless you 
either disable it for a specific device, or change the tone for a particular 
Mac, iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

Optionally, repeat this process for each Mac that you want to differentiate the 
ringtone sound effect for, again this can be helpful if your desk workstation 
is full of multiple computers and devices, which which many of us do.



You’ll find many options for ringtones in this list, many of which are shared 
with the same iOS ringtones that you can choose on your iPhone for either 
inbound calls or texts. Similar to iOS, you can even use GarageBand ringtone 
creations made from your iPhone or use those self-made from iTunes songs if 
you’d like.

Wish I could “hear” the tone, as I select it, to see if I like it or not.

I would think this is expected behavior, since it works that way, on my iPhone 
and iPad.

How does one use the GarageBand or iTunes-made ringtones in FaceTime? While 
Mail has UI for “Add/Remove Custom Sounds (and I have three added sounds 
there), FaceTime does not seem to. Similarly, pre-Yosemite Messages allowed for 
custom sounds. That function seems to have been removed in Yosemite.

Where are the ringtones stored in OS X Yosemite? And how can you add custom 
ringtones? I’m quite comfortable with adding them to iOS via iTunes, but I 
don’t see a way to add them either in iTunes or FaceTime .

Turbo Tax

2015-02-13 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi guys 
I fot my taxes done with Turbo Tax for 2014. Guess what guys. No capshas! To 
sign it, you need your adjusted gross income for 2013 or your assigned PIN that 
you can get from ,,irS’s computer. 

Ok, here’s my question. George I think you said that you had used this program 
for a while. How do you get your information imported into next year? I thought 
it would take me through putting in my estimated tax payment for 2015 so that I 
could get credit for next year. I know you can type them in if need be, but it 
says you can transfer information from one year to the other. How do you do 
transfer information from 2014 to 2015?

Safari Selection Issues And Google Hangouts Question

2015-02-13 Thread Keith Hinton
Hello folks,
The first problem I'm encountering  with the latest OS X update is Safari text 
selection issues.
An example where I encounter this problem is when I'm in any web edit box, I 
type a word, and lets say that word gets a typo.
I highlight the word to corect it, press VoiceOver shift M, but as soon as I've 
done htat, another word on the screen entirely gets highlighted instead, and 
nope this has nothing to do with cursor tracking, from what I can tel.
The second question I had is, have any of you tried accessing Google Hangouts?
I'm curious how accessible that is with VoiceOver in general since that's web 
based content.

Re: Safari Selection Issues And Google Hangouts Question

2015-02-13 Thread Donna Goodin
Hi Keith,

I recently had to start using Google Hangouts for my job, and had the same 
concern you do.  Actually, and somewhat surprisingly given that it's Google, 
Hangouts is very accessible.  All buttons are both spoken by voiceover and 
shown on my braille display.  My one complaint is that there's some navigating 
around,  especially if your focus gets shifted.. It would be nice if there were 
keyboard commands for things like Leave Call.  Note: there may be, it's 
possible I just haven't found them.  I haven't had a ton of time to research 
that.  But you should have no trouble using hangouts.
Cheers,
Donna

Re: Safari Selection Issues And Google Hangouts Question

2015-02-13 Thread David Griffith
I have encountered this problem with spell checking in general and the 
work around I have discovered is not to try and highlight the word and 
bring up the context menu but instead to press command semi colon to 
jump to next miss spelt word and then bring up the context menu where 
you will find  the word properly focused for spell checking. I am not 
sure however if this works in edit boxes though, normally here I just 
highlight the word with option shift left or right arrow and simply 
retype the word which I find quicker than cursoring through looking for 
the typo.

Re: Can I change the speed of a recording with Amadeus Pro?

2015-02-13 Thread Phil Halton
in fact you can. I just listened to Jonathan Mosen’s excellent AmadeusPro 
tutorial where he demonstrates just such a technique. He had some very old 
cassette tapes that were recorded at half speed, and he showed how he ws able 
to bring  them into AP,  clean them up by removing tape hiss and then save them 
to a file.

I highly recommend getting his tutorial. For the price you’ll learn much about 
AP including this technique. 
Maybe Jonathan will chime in here with a more definitive and authoritative 
answer, but your need sounds exactly like what he demonstrated in his tutorial.

 I have an old tape that I think was recorded at 1.78 inches per second. I 
 have just obtained a real to real recorder that will only run at 3.3/4 or 7.5 
 inches per second. Can I slow the speed with Amadeus by half so I can hear 
 the original recording? The original tape was recorded 45 years ago and is 
 very important to my wife and I.
 Thanks again for any advice.
 Max.

question about using air drop with IOS

2015-02-13 Thread Caitlyn Furness
Hi,

My husband and I both have i phones.  I have a 5c and his is a 5s.

We are trying to use air drop for me to send him a file.

I can see him in the air drop area, but when I send him the file, nothing seems 
to happen on his end.

We both have air drop enabled.   

If anybody can help, that’d be great!

Thanks!

Re: WhisperSync for Voice.

2015-02-13 Thread Jane
Hi.

I have tried using that with my Braille display and it works great! I can read 
in Braille until I get tired, then I can switch to audio right there in the app 
with no problems. When I want Braille again, I can switch back just as easily 
and the display will be where the Audible audio stopped.

 I expect this would also work if you're reading the Kindle version of the

 Hi,
 
 WhisperSync refers to the Audible version of the book.  So, if you purchase
 a Kindle eBook, and then you choose to purchase what they are calling
 WhisperSync,  you would be purchasing the Audible version of the book.
 What you then have is an audio book, read by a human narrator, in the
 Audible format.  You can play the Audible version in the Audible app on an I
 Device, or if you have an audiobook player, such as the Victor Reader
 Stream, the book can be played on such a player.  If you have a Kindle,
 there is a built-in Audible app on it, as well.

Re: Reading a PDF in Preview

2015-02-13 Thread David Griffith
I am not entirely sure. I got Nisus Writer Pro when it was on special 
offer so it made sense to get the pro version.
Although I got mine from the app store it is also worth keeping an eye 
on MacUpdae as sometimes they bundle Nisus Writer Pro with other 
software for a significant reduction,  a fraction  of the normal price 
requested. I think they also put the product on special offer from time 
to time on their website and the app store so perhaps it is worth 
waiting for this.

   What I want to do is organize albums under artist. Some albums are

change genre as needed.


   What is the best way to set the views so I can accomplish this work?

Re: Reading a PDF in Preview

2015-02-13 Thread Esther
Read the comments for the Nisus Writer Pro app entry at AppleVis to find out 
about the differences between Nisus Writer Express and Nisus Writer Pro:
http://www.applevis.com/apps/mac/productivity/nisus-writer-pro
Basically, you should get the Pro version if you want to use this to transfer 
your documents to people who want to read your compositions in MicroSoft Word 
format, since only the Pro version exports to .docx format (though both version 
can import .docx formats).  The Pro version also supports advanced features 
like table of contents creation, cross-referencing, ePub creation, etc.  There 
are download links for the 15-day free trials of both versions at the AppleVis 
site, so you can compare them for yourself.  If you only want to use the Nisus 
Writer app for reading PDFs in place of Preview, and don't require the 
word-processing features mentioned above, the Express version will work for 
you.  Although there is an upgrade route from Express to Pro, it costs more 
than a direct purchase of the Pro version,

Note that the developer offers substantial discounts for academic licenses if 
you purchase the app directly from their web site -- it's about $39 for the Pro 
version if you use an email address with a recognized .edu or equivalent 
educational domain for your purchase, or offer them other proof you are a 
registered student or educator:
http://nisus.com/pro/buyMore.php

Finally, as David mentioned, the MacUpdate site occasionally offers this (and 
other) Mac apps for discounted purchase from the developer from time to time.  
The discount is usually only for a day or a weekend, unless it is part of an 
app bundle purchase that might be on sale for a couple of weeks, and the 
discounted price is not available for purchases made through the Mac App Store 
over the same period.  However, creating a MacUpdate account for buying 
discounted apps requires a one-time negotiation of a CAPTCHA.

HTH

Re: accessible youtube downloader

2015-02-13 Thread David Griffith

I did a Safari Podcast last year on using Youtube.last
Whilst it is not fully accessible the Media Human Youtube to Mp3 app is 
definitely usable.
When I start the program I am confronted by a completely inaccessible 
window but I navigate to the close button in the toolbar and simply 
close this.
Now pressing command V will paste any links you have copied from Youtube 
into the application. The menu bar is completely accessible though it 
sometimes takes a while to come up and you may get a busy message. Once 
the menu is up you can go to the edit menu where there is a start all 
option which will download any links you have pasted into the 
application into a folder called Downloaded by Media Human in your Music 
Directory.


Non of the rest of the app is accessible but that is fine for me.
It also downloads playlist.

How do I mount networked drive?

2015-02-13 Thread Rob

Hi,
Can someone remind me
How to  mount networked drive at startup?
I added it to user/log on apps, but that caused the drive to open once 
the Mac booted.

I want the drive to show on the desktop, but not open.

Thanks,
Rob

Re: accessible youtube downloader

2015-02-13 Thread David Griffith

Also forgot to say that in one sense my Podcast is outdated
 as the app now opens with an inaccessible window. I do not know what 
this is but just navigate to the toolbar and hit the close button  to 
get rid of this window and then you can follow the instructions as laid 
out in the Podcast.

Re: accessible youtube downloader

2015-02-13 Thread David Griffith

I did not upload this one to Apple Vis. Perhaps I should.

It is available on the following link. It is a pro link so will probably 
just download into your download folder without any message.


 so just check your download  a minute or two folder after clicking the 
link.

Re: How do I mount networked drive?

OK, I tried that but it still opens a finder window of the drive.
even when the hide checkbox was checked, so I deleted it.
I will try it again.
if it continues to open the finder window, do you have any more suggestions?

Re: Reading a PDF in Preview

2015-02-13 Thread Esther
Hi Gigi,

Nisus Writer Pro is a word processing app.  You can think of it as an 
alternative to Pages, and some people prefer it and/or find it a bit more 
intuitive to use than Pages. You can read the MacWorld Review.  (Both web 
reviews I give below can be read in Safari Reader using the cmd-shift-r 
shortcut):
http://www.macworld.com/article/2157004/tools-of-the-trade-why-i-prefer-nisus-writer.html

There was an even longer one when version 2 of Nisus Writer Pro was first 
released that appeared in TidBITS back in 2011:
http://tidbits.com/article/12220

The upshot was that author of these articles prefered Nisus Writer Pro to 
either Pages or Word, and the staff of the Take Control eBooks have 
converted over to using this Mac app as their default word processor.  I 
believe that Jonathan Mosen used this app to write his recent books.  I 
find creating or converting to ePub more intuitive (for me), than with 
Pages, but new Mac users might prefer to stick with Pages.

People who like Smart folders, mailboxes, playlists, etc. and linux/unix 
users who use general regular expressions for pattern searching will also 
like the way Nisus Writer supports features for searching for and working 
with these kinds of patterns in text, but that's just a bonus.  (It's the 
sort of searches that make people like the Nebulous Notes app on the 
iPhone.)

In your case, you're not going to need this in lieu of PDFPenPro for PDF 
reading.  But then, PDFPenPro is also much more expensive than Nisus Writer 
Pro, and does other things related to OCR and PDF editing.

HTH

Re: Reading a PDF in Preview

2015-02-13 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

Normally, I’ve found when this sort of thing happens in Preview, it is when 
Preview is already open.  That is, the Preview app is open with either no 
active windows or with any number of active windows.  So, I usually quit 
Preview and then re-open it by opening the specific pdf file.  This will 
usually make it so that the static text is now pdf text and readable by VO.  
Not sure why it happens this way, but it does.  A reminder that the MacOS 
behaves differently than Windows when closing things.  Closing windows within 
an app like TextEdit, Preview, Pages etc, just closes the window, not the app 
whereas, in most cases, closing, at least with alt-f4 in Windows, loses the 
window and quits the app.

HTH.

Re: Reading a PDF in Preview

is pdf pen pro on Applevis? I’m interested in it but I need to keep the costs 
down as much as possible. I do a lot of my writing on a braille note taker so 
I’m more interested in something that can recognize pdf’s that are pictures

 Hi Gigi,
 
 Nisus Writer Pro is a word processing app.  You can think of it as an 
 alternative to Pages, and some people prefer it and/or find it a bit more 
 intuitive to use than Pages. You can read the MacWorld Review.  (Both web 
 reviews I give below can be read in Safari Reader using the cmd-shift-r 
 shortcut):
 http://www.macworld.com/article/2157004/tools-of-the-trade-why-i-prefer-nisus-writer.html
 
 There was an even longer one when version 2 of Nisus Writer Pro was first 
 released that appeared in TidBITS back in 2011:
 http://tidbits.com/article/12220
 
 The upshot was that author of these articles prefered Nisus Writer Pro to 
 either Pages or Word, and the staff of the Take Control eBooks have converted 
 over to using this Mac app as their default word processor.  I believe that 
 Jonathan Mosen used this app to write his recent books.  I find creating or 
 converting to ePub more intuitive (for me), than with Pages, but new Mac 
 users might prefer to stick with Pages.
 
 People who like Smart folders, mailboxes, playlists, etc. and linux/unix 
 users who use general regular expressions for pattern searching will also 
 like the way Nisus Writer supports features for searching for and working 
 with these kinds of patterns in text, but that's just a bonus.  (It's the 
 sort of searches that make people like the Nebulous Notes app on the iPhone.)
 
 In your case, you're not going to need this in lieu of PDFPenPro for PDF 
 reading.  But then, PDFPenPro is also much more expensive than Nisus Writer 
 Pro, and does other things related to OCR and PDF editing.

 I am not entirely sure. I got Nisus Writer Pro when it was on special offer 
 so it made sense to get the pro version.
 Although I got mine from the app store it is also worth keeping an eye on 
 MacUpdae as sometimes they bundle Nisus Writer Pro with other software for a 
 significant reduction,  a fraction  of the normal price requested. I think 
 they also put the product on special offer from time to time on their 
 website and the app store so perhaps it is worth waiting for this.

 This pertains to files I open from the finder, and not from within the

Re: How do I mount networked drive?

2015-02-13 Thread Barry Hadder
Yeah I see that now.
Another option is to create an automator work flow and save it as an app.
The work flow will only have get specified server and connect to server in that 
order.  In the get specified server, just enter the server url.
Then save it as an app.  I’ve tried it and it connects and mounts at login 
without the finder window opening.

There is another way as well which involves editing the /etc/fstab file, but 
I’m not sure off the top of my head how to create an entry for a network drive.
I should add that if you want to try to go that root, you only edit fstab using 
vifs.

And, there is yet another way using launchctl, but I’m not going to try to tell 
you how to do that either it as I don’t actually have a nas.  I’m just using an 
ftp server for testing.  You would want to use something like mount_afp or 
mount_smbfs.  You can look at the man page and play around with it.  The 
automator app is probably the easiest option though.

Re: Editing Music Information

2015-02-13 Thread Colin Matthews
Hi!
OK with any album that has tracks listed as there own albums because of having 
a guest artist!
Select all tracks in that album and under details add the main artist to the 
album artist field!
And all tracks will be back in one album and each track will still say the 
guest artist!
I did this with Barbra Streisand, Duets to pull all tracks back together!

 It is available on the following link. It is a pro link so will probably just 
 download into your download folder without any message.
 
 so just check your download  a minute or two folder after clicking the link.

 Whilst it is not fully accessible the Media Human Youtube to Mp3 app is

 When I start the program I am confronted by a completely inaccessible

 this.
 Now pressing command V will paste any links you have copied from Youtube 
 into the application. The menu bar is completely accessible though it 
 sometimes takes a while to come up and you may get a busy message. Once the 
 menu is up you can go to the edit menu where there is a start all option 
 which will download any links you have pasted into the application into a 
 folder called Downloaded by Media Human in your Music Directory.
 
 Non of the rest of the app is accessible but that is fine for me.
 It also downloads playlist.
