Re: Using Numbers for Simple Multiplication

2015-02-26 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
So if you know the two cells you want multiplied you should just be able 
to type in the formula. One tricky bit is if you type anything starting 
with a letter it assumes you are entering text, not a label. So if the 
two numbers are in cells A1 and A2 you can type the formula =A1*A2 using 
an asterisk for the multiplication. One annoying thing I noticed is that 
when I hit = it pops some little modal dialog for the formula so I end 
up typing a1+a2= so I have to arrow right once after typing the = to get 
the order correct.

Hi there
Go to the first one you want. If you are doing a row, be sure to start 
with the one on the left. If you are doing a column, start with the 
one at the top of where you want to begin. In theory you can do it the 
other way, but I have never been able to make that work. Staying on 
top of the last one you select, go to the menu with VO m.  Go to 
insert and down arrow to formula. Find product, sum or whatever. Press 
ENTER. If you have equal signs or a line separating your figures, be 
sure to be on top of that before you go to the menu. You want your 
separator line into the formula. I hope this makes sense.

Hello to the list.
I may be missing something very basic about concepts for using Numbers.
With two adjacent numbers, either in a row or a column, I cannot get 
the Product function in numbers to multiply the entries.
I’ve tried selecting the numbers, but that did not seem to work, but 
placing the cursor in an adjacent blank cell, I went to the insert 
menu, then formulas, and tried both Enter and VO Spacebar on Product.
Clearly this must be operator error, so any hints about performing 
basic  formula calculations would be really helpful.

Thanks.

Applescript to double click at voiceover cursor

2015-02-26 Thread Jonathan C Cohn
Good day,

Below starting with the word “use” is an apple script that  Jürgen and I wrote. 
This will double click with the mouse on the VoiceOver cursor. It will of 
course only work reliably when your VoiceOver cursor is over a non-grouped 
item. . This has only been tested by two people, and I have only tested it in 
about 3 places so your experience are welcome. 

Also, for anybody interested I might attempt to create a call in to discuss 
AppleScript starting from a beginner perspective. 

use application "VoiceOver"
tell commander
perform command "move mouse pointer to voiceover cursor"
delay 1
end tell
output mouse summary
tell mouse cursor
click twice
end tell

Re: A few questions.

2015-02-26 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
While I'm not sure about the legal ramifications of breaking DRM, I 
wouldn't call running the Amazon Kindle app on the Mac using VMWare or 
Bootcamp as being 'available' on the Mac. Sort of like saying an 
automobile can be driven just fine on a railroad track by loading and 
towing it on a flatbed train car.

Certainly the only way I can use the Kindle app on a Mac is via a 
fusion Window.


Whilst it is possible to break the DRM of Kindle Books and whilst a 
legal defense for doing so may possibly be available for visually 
impaired people under the 2003 Act I am not certain that it can be 
assumed to hold force without some legal test.  So active discussion 
of strategies for breaking DRM on this list may not be appropriate. . 
The rights of visually impaired people to breach DRM and copyright is 
linked to the lack of accessible delivery and on other platforms at 
least Amazon has made available a number of accessible alternative, 
and these are available on a Mac via boot camp or Fusion.  Amazon 
could conceivably cite these in justification of preserving the 
integrity of their DRM.  . I agree that   the Mac OS should be a 
platform that accessibility should be extended  to though.
There are a number of commercial tools and there is nothing to stop 
you Googling something like Kindle DRM Removal.

1. Are you still using it?
2. Must you have one of the Logitech units or can you output directly

3. What are you running it on.  I am considering running it on the Mac mini.
I have a few other questions if I have not worn out my welcome.

Many thanks,

Re: A few questions.

2015-02-26 Thread David Griffith
Whilst the i OS app is accessible the last time I checked the Kindle App 
on the Mac platform had no Accessibility Plugin and the book content 
text was not accessible via voiceover.
Certainly the only way I can use the Kindle app on a Mac is via a fusion 
Window.


Whilst it is possible to break the DRM of Kindle Books and whilst a 
legal defense for doing so may possibly be available for visually 
impaired people under the 2003 Act I am not certain that it can be 
assumed to hold force without some legal test.  So active discussion of 
strategies for breaking DRM on this list may not be appropriate. . The 
rights of visually impaired people to breach DRM and copyright is linked 
to the lack of accessible delivery and on other platforms at least 
Amazon has made available a number of accessible alternative, and these 
are available on a Mac via boot camp or Fusion.  Amazon could 
conceivably cite these in justification of preserving the integrity of 
their DRM.  . I agree that   the Mac OS should be a platform that 
accessibility should be extended  to though.
There are a number of commercial tools and there is nothing to stop you 
Googling something like Kindle DRM Removal.

Re: Time Capsule on a u-verse router

2015-02-26 Thread Joseph
Hello,
Here’s the thing. For what we pay for cable we should be getting much better 
service, in my opinion. In regards to over the phone techs, I agree. But we’ve 
also had repair technicians come to the door both back when we had DSL several 
years ago and also with Comcast support. The problem is this as I see it. Some 
technicians are sub contracted people, while others represent only certain 
parts of the network.
At one time, we did have a technician who said he was contracted with AT&T but 
didn’t work as an AT&T employee. However, he did give me a business card. 
Several weeks later, I called him to ask a question and his phone number was 
disconnected.
Well, I really do appreciate all that has been said. I suppose that I’ll do 
more research and give things a little more time to see if things change in 
either direction. If Comcast gets worse, I’ll probably move to u-verse if 
comcast gets any better, I’ll probably stay with them. Only time will tell, I 
guess.
So thanks a bunch guys for all your input, much appreciated.

Re: Using Numbers for Simple Multiplication

2015-02-26 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi there 
Go to the first one you want. If you are doing a row, be sure to start with the 
one on the left. If you are doing a column, start with the one at the top of 
where you want to begin. In theory you can do it the other way, but I have 
never been able to make that work. Staying on top of the last one you select, 
go to the menu with VO m.  Go to insert and down arrow to formula. Find 
product, sum or whatever. Press ENTER. If you have equal signs or a line 
separating your figures, be sure to be on top of that before you go to the 
menu. You want your separator line into the formula. I hope this makes sense.

Hi,
here works: entering a number in B2 and B3, moving the cursor to B4, go to the 
menue and insert the product from the Formular submenue to B4. The result was 
correct here even if I inserted another cell with a number.

Using Numbers for Simple Multiplication

Hello to the list.
I may be missing something very basic about concepts for using Numbers.
With two adjacent numbers, either in a row or a column, I cannot get the 
Product function in numbers to multiply the entries.
I’ve tried selecting the numbers, but that did not seem to work, but placing 
the cursor in an adjacent blank cell, I went to the insert menu, then formulas, 
and tried both Enter and VO  Spacebar on Product. 

Clearly this must be operator error, so any hints about performing basic  
formula calculations would be really helpful.
Thanks.

Re: question about VM Fusion

2015-02-26 Thread Phil Halton
when I get that sound that indicates a wrong or dead keystroke, and Fusion 
doesn't seem to respond, I switch to  full screen mode with command control F 
and that usually shakes things up and gets things working again. Also, 
sometimes I VO end (function+right arrow) and then hit tab a few times until my 
VM screen reader (JAWS) responds.
Usually though, the best fix is to switch screen modes with command control F. 
Whether it goes to full screen mode or single screen mode doesn’t matter to the 
way the VM operates, but it gets the keystroke problem fixed.

Well, I don’t see it as surrender exactly, rather as picking my battles.  You 
actually don’t have to bridge any of the residential gateways to use back to my 
mac, but you do have to do some tweaking.  I’ve seen a couple of methods, one 
of which is at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3865704.
If you decide you want to bridge the 510, then there is a good video here: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpYROv9Fjis.

I have ADSL2+ which is what you git if TV isn’t available.  I git 6MBPs, but 
you can get speeds up to 24 I believe.
Also, uverse uses ip based dslms rather than atm based so I don’t think  just 
any off the shelf modem will work with it.

Re: Time Capsule on a u-verse router

2015-02-26 Thread Joseph
Hello guys,
This is getting really interesting. And I appreciate all that is being said 
here.
I did listen to the Video. Now I’ll look at the other info.
What this all hedges on is if Comcast is interested in making it’s service more 
consistent or not. I won’t even go into Comcast customer service.
All I really want is a service that is consistent and comes as close as 
possible to providing what they say they will. However, none of the ISPs 
guarantee anything.
Oh yea, another thing. A tech at AT&T said that my SpeedStream 5360 would work 
with my router on u-verse, but I kind of doubt it. That’s why I’m examining all 
I can before making any moves.

Subject: question about VM Fusion

Hi all,
I just recently updated to the latest version of Fusion, and am wondering if 
anyone else has noticed a problem if you are running Windows 7 with a screen 
reader such as System Access or Window-Eyes. I can no longer seem to alt tab 
between various windows that are open. Does any one know a workaround for this? 
As an example, if I bring up blind adrenaline’s web site to play a card game, 
and I create a table, what do I do if the table doesn’t automatically come into 
focus? How do I find out what other windows are running in the background? But 
more importantly, how to fix the alt tab situation? Thanks.

Re: Applescript help

I’ve come to this script late. I would like to know what the “package” is and 
if it is geared towards teaching apple script creation? I’m an old Cobol, RPG, 
Bal, Pascal, APL, Basic etc … programmer from way back and wouldn’t mind 
getting back into it for the odd script writing need.
thanks

 Send me a copy of the script and I can give it a try.
 
 Is output using the output command or the say command? Or perhaps the code 
 from the Apple version was taken, which checks if VoiceOVer is running and 
 also makes sure that applescripts can control voiceover. in any case the 
 first thing to do is verify that the script runs in script editor.

Re: Time Capsule on a u-verse router

I prefer running the AirPort directly facing the Internet, for that way the 
guest network and Back To My Mac features are available.

U-Verse is often just (V)DSL.  It might be worthwhile your investing in a modem 
that does the bridging, such as Draytek 120/130.  Or, see if you can get your 
modem into bridge mode.

Of course, if you aren’t bothered about guest networking or BTMM, you could 
roll with the easier option of letting their modem do the routing, but meh, 
that’s just surrender. :)

Re: 'Phorm' Case Adds Morphing Tactile Keyboard to iPad Mini - Mac Rumors

2015-02-26 Thread BobH.
Even a tactile keyboard is a start, but SpeedDots cover this for a lot less, 
so there's lots more scope for development yet, though its current structure 
might well limit that.
