Re: question about garage band

2015-07-11 Thread CJ Daniel
Ted,

Can you clarify as to whether you’re trying to input MIDI from your keyboard or 
actual audio?  

Thanks,

CJ

Re: iOS 9 public beta to be released today – MacDailyNews - Welcome Home

Well one thing I always do when trying betas is to go to the voiceover 
practice, voiceover-K on a keyboard, and try out different keystrokes.

Gee! Willikers! Super Dooper issues

2015-07-11 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Uh... is it normal if I'm reimaging a USB drive image of OSX back to my 
internal HD with super Doop, for it to  take over an hour and a half just to 
reach 10 percent?  I think the whole image is around 140GB, and yes, I am doing 
this with USB 3.0, and yes, the drive does support 3.0.  Even on 2.0 though, 
I'd not think it should be this long should it?  I mean, I could see in an hour 
and a half it be maybe at 40 or 50 percent, but not no 9 or 10 roughly!  No, 
the mac hasn't been going to sleep while it's been imaging.  I've made double 
dawg sure of that.

Chris.

Report an issue where in system preferences, under the sound category,

the NDA, but I want to test as much as I can. Please let me know what bugs 
you're experiencing so I can  confirm them; if they're fixed, great, but 
if not, I want to tell Apple as soon as I can. I know about the bug list 
AppleVis keeps, but there's no guarantee we have every bug on there. Note

I'm looking for another mail client to use other than apple mail. I'm seriously

I'm willing to do the same.  If you find something, let me know, and I'll 
test it, and if I can reproduce, I'll file it, but again, I won't be 
discussing its outcome, I'm sorry.

Hello list,
Like some of you, I'm now testing 10.11. I'll not be discussing it, due to 
the NDA, but I want to test as much as I can. Please let me know what bugs 
you're experiencing so I can  confirm them; if they're fixed, great, but if 
not, I want to tell Apple as soon as I can. I know about the bug list 
AppleVis keeps, but there's no guarantee we have every bug on there. Note 
that I can't test foreign language or braille display bugs, and remember 
that I won't be reporting back on the status of anything you send. Thanks!

  Unfortunately, the way they say to do it is to wipe everything and start 
fresh.
  The way I did it is I restored back to a 10.10.3 backup I had, put the public 
beta build on, then used the recovery partition to erase my drive and reinstall 
the same exact build, since for some reason I couldn’t get the 
CreateInstallMedia terminal command to correctly make my bootable USB 
installer. Perhaps it was the drive I was using, but I just gave up on that and 
did it that way and fixed everything.

  The dev build is higher, so if you install the public beta build, then go 
into software update, you’ll constantly see the dev build unless you install 
that.

  Hi,


  It’s not necessary, but that’s at I ended up doing. One thing I did 
notice is that as of now, the build for the public beta is slightly different 
than the one seeded to developers for beta 3, so if you install the public beta 
build on top on that, you’ll keep seeing build 12A216g in software update since 
that’s a higher numbered one, if only slightly.

question about garage band

2015-07-11 Thread Ted Phillips
Hi all.  I have been trying to do some recording in Garage Band 10.1.  I can
open a project and set up the tracks, but seem to find controls for my midi
in and out for the keyboard.  No matter what I do, I can't get input from
the keyboard back through the mac via my quad capture.  I am using a macbook
pro with a quad capture sound card and a Korg Kross.  Can someone please
help?
 
Thanks

There's just no reason I need them there. Google came up with some

Is there a way of stopping .ds_store and thumbs.db from writing to 
every signle folder I view?
There's just no reason I need them there. Google came up with some 
terminal command which didn't work.

Hi,
I think TinkerTool may be able to do this.
You can find more information about this program here:

Hope this helps,

  Hi,


  It’s not necessary, but that’s at I ended up doing. One thing I did notice is 
that as of now, the build for the public beta is slightly different than the 
one seeded to developers for beta 3, so if you install the public beta build on 
top on that, you’ll keep seeing build 12A216g in software update since that’s a 
higher numbered one, if only slightly.

parallels 10 accessibility

2015-07-11 Thread Juan Hernandez
Hi All,

I currently run vm fusion to load windows on my mac, so I can run some 
development software.  Fusion can be very laggy, and I do not have a slow 
computer.  I have a 2014 iMac, w/ i7 quad core 3.5ghz cpu, 32gb ram, and 1tb 
ssd.

I have read that parallels is after than fusion.

Is the parallels interface accessible with voiceover on the mac?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bst,

Juan

what better place to discuss this then here?  If we who are testing it ask 
each other questions, post comments observations etc, I don’t see why that 
isn’t a problem.  The better the communication we have the better feedback
we can have with apple to make sure our voices are heard to get things done 
during  this beta cycle.


When I was at wwdc, I was told this isn’t a big
deal.

Maybe we should start a apple beta discussion list if there will be issues.

What do you guys think?  I think it would be good for it to be here this way 
the people who aren’t using it, they can have us who are using ios9beta test 
things they are having issues on iOsS 8.x to see if they are fixed in iOS 9.

Re: Sorry if OT

2015-07-11 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
What the hell ever!  I'm not arguing this!  Whether I'm right or wrong, this 
isn't worth me spending the final energy I have left over!


Guys if you wanna blab, do it.  If you don't, then don't but frankly, I'm 
Goddamn tired of arguing if this is acceptable or not!  All I will end by 
saying is, if Apple finds out, and you don't get in trouble, then good for 
you!  If you do though then don't come bitching and snarling at me like a 
terrible 2.

I apologize.

I'm dealing with some crap over here which I won't go into, but suffice it 
to say, because of helping a friend who's in some very emotional hard times 
right now, I've not had any sleep in probably 4 nights now in a row.  I 
didn't mean to snap.  Forgive me.  I'm just really really tired.

There are undoubtedly many places where you can discuss the public beta. 
Look at all the publications that are out with various articles about how 
well or not well things are working thus far. But on these lists, no go. I 
wonder why they make people sign and NDA for a public beta which literally 
anyone with an eye device can download.

Re: Sorry if OT

2015-07-11 Thread Juan Hernandez
what better place to discuss this then here?  If we who are testing it ask each 
other questions, post comments observations etc, I don’t see why that isn’t a 
problem.  The better the communication we have the better feedback 
we can have with apple to make sure our voices are heard to get things done 
during  this beta cycle.

When I was at wwdc, I was told this isn’t a big
 deal.  

Maybe we should start a apple beta discussion list if there will be issues.

What do you guys think?  I think it would be good for it to be here this way 
the people who aren’t using it, they can have us who are using ios9beta test 
things they are having issues on iOsS 8.x to see if they are fixed in iOS 9.

Best,

Juan

Re: iOS 9 public beta to be released today – MacDailyNews - Welcome Home

2015-07-11 Thread Juan Hernandez
has anyone tried it on an iPad air2?  I am trying to see if someone who uses 
voiceover can use the multitask splitscrean option to show two apps at the 
sometime on the screen.  If anyone has any ideas in this I’d appreciate it.  So 
far ios9b1 is running great on my iPad.  I am going to put it on my iPhone soon 
after I use it on my air2 for a few days.

Are there any notable voiceover features/fixes/things of note that is brings?  
I don’t see a lot of big changes in VoiceOver so far.

Best,

 If you were previously signed up for the beta program, everyone can do it. 
 I’m not sure if you can just randomly sign up and get access to both OS X 
 and iOS.

Hi Chris. Yes, about that tutorial. I opened it up today. Did what they said in 
the first screen, and now, whenever I open the tutorial, instead of displaying 
the document text, now Voiceover just says "Empty scrollbar". 
And I can't think what is wrong. The composer mode doesn't want to work.

 Hi all. My name is Dewald. I am from South Africa.
 Jonathan Mosen recommended me to this list.
 I am a piano technician and love to tinker with technology.
 I got my first Mac in December of last year through a Black Friday deal on 
 Best Buy.
 I was still in the US by that time.
 Anyway ... I have some questions, because I'm still new to using it, but 
 yet, I have turned my back on Windows for good.
 
 When I start up my Mac, or just waking it up from sleeping, it says 3 
 system dialogues".
 And it will repeat it a couple of times.
 Sometimes it's 1 system dialogue, or two or three system dialogues.
 
 What is this?
 
 About the notification center:
 do I have to go in there from time to time and clean up, or is there a way 
 for it to do it automatically?
 
 Whichever app I use, I don't know if it is my internet connection or what, 
 but like using something that doesn't even need a connection it will say 
 busy busy busy, ready. Very irritating.
 
 They say you can press command-tab to switch between windows.
 Mine, when i press the combination, it just makes a dunk sound.
 So I don't know if it's only me, but, I have to press the combination, 
 then release, to give it time to focuss or something, and then I can hold 
 in the command key and press tab repeatedly to cycle between windows.
 
 And last for now, do any of you use Scrivener successfully? Is it possible 
 and can someone email me off-list to help.
 
 Thank you very very much for any help.
 I am so excited about my Mac and all the things I can do with it.
 Just a short amuzing story.
 I was living with two room mates in Vancouver WA, The one guy had an HP 
 printer, copier and scanner.
 I had an HP pc trying to connect to this thing, wanting to print something.
 I spent hours trying to find the right driver, and no matter how I tried 
 to install it, it ended up giving me an error.
 While I was wondering what I could do, the other guy came with his Mac, 
 connected it to the HP printer, and I promise you, a few seconds later, 
 the machine was spitting out paper.
 I was dum-founded.
 You would think: HP to HP ... easy, right?
 That sold me to get a Mac. And also of course that it came with Voiceover.
 Amazing!
 
 Thank you,
 God bless,
 Dewald.

According to the FAQ, which you can read at
beta.apple.com
no features or bugs, unless publicly disclosed by Apple, shall be discussed 
with anyone not signed up to the public beta program or not running the 
public beta. That's the jist of it, anyway. So the short answer is no.

Anything that Apple has made publicly available can be discussed.  All of 
there WWDC sessions are open to the public.  The following was amended to 
the Apple developer confidentiality agreement last year:
Further, Apple agrees that you will not be bound by the foregoing 
confidentiality terms with regard to technical information about Apple pre- 
release software, services and/or hardware disclosed by Apple at WWDC (Apple’s 
Worldwide Developers Conference), except that you may not post screen shots 
of, write public reviews of, or redistribute any such materials.


So, it is a lot looser than it use to be.

Also, if there is an NDA in place for something prerelease, you should see 
the following at the beginning and end of the release notes:

THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS MESSAGE IS UNDER NON-DISCLOSURE

Just don’t post screen shots or distribute any binaries.
Read your legal agreements carefully.

If in Doubt, the developer forms are also a very useful resource for 
discussing issues with the betas.

What they're saying is, you need to go into settings, then 
Messages, and be sure that IMessage is turned on, and that it is set to your 
e-mail address for your outgoing messages instead of being set to your old 
phone number.  I'll betcha it still is trying to send from your old number, and 
that's probably why it's not working.  Also, be sure obviously that you are 
connected to your wifi.  Otherwise, again, it won't work.

Also, I'd make sure that Facetime is signed in, and that you are 
set for outgoing calls to be sent from your e-mail address, and not your old 
phone number.  That's under Settings, Facetime.  I know you might not ever use! 
Facetime, but trust me with this.  It is so tightly integraded with IMessage, 
that you probably will want to confirm this as well.

Hi,

What kind of router are you using?  It's possible that if you have specific 
Firewalls enabled that this is restricting continuity features.  Also, are 
you getting any notifications when attempting to enable continuity between 
devices.  Usually, for Text Message forwarding and such, notifications are 
sent between devices if it takes.  That is, a confirmation dialog is sent to 
allow/disallow the continuity connection.  If this confirmation is not 
sent/received, then the relationship is not approved, thus continuity is not 
actually enabled.

I figured as much it wouldn't.

There is something a lot of you though have not! considerred.  How many of 
us are doing this behind a router?  I doubt it very seriously, but I wonder 
if maybe all of us are having some ports which need to be opened/forwarded. 
Or maybe something somewhere else in our network is blocking it.  Again, 
seeing my IPad works flawlessly for the most part, I say it's very very 
unlikely the case, but, I can't think of anything else.

You're correct.  I can get the part with IMessage and what not to work, it's 
jsut making and receiving calls from my mac which is finnicky as hell! 
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  Usually more than not, it 
doesn't.  Sometimes it works on one of my macs, yet not another.  It's just 
very very mixed result.


Now, this being said, I have an IPad Air 1st gen, 32GB wifi only, and 
believe it or not, making and receiving calls with Continuity/handoff  on 
that unit is pretty much rock solid.  Go figure.

Re: Introduction and some questions

2015-07-11 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I just used the documentation that came with the app.  I found it to be more 
than sufficient.  It said to read it before getting started, so I took their 
advice and did so.  It took me about an hour or so to get through it, but it 
was worth it.


Yes, I do add folders and files underneath.  That is the whole idea behind 
scribiner.  Were you under the impression that this was a word processor? 
It's not!  I mean, it is in a sense, but not really.  This is made more for 
writers as myself who need software to help them compile their ideas for 
their books, etc.  Yes, I do use the inspector, but it would be entirely too 
much to teach you everything about it over an e-mail.  I really really do 
think your best bet is going to be to open up that interactive getting 
started guide that comes with the app, and just go through it at your own 
pace, like I did.

Hi Chris. I guess it's just navigating around the complex interface. Do 
you use keyboard shortcuts to jump from the table to the text etc?

I think it's probably just different to use than a normal word processor.
If you can just explain what you put in the table. Do you add folders or 
headings in the table and then scenes underneath?

How do you use it?
And do you use the inspector?
Is there any training material online that helped you?
I know there's the "Learn Scrivener fast" but it's very expensive and not

I am a piano technician and love to tinker with technology.
I got my first Mac in December of last year through a Black Friday deal 
on Best Buy.

I was still in the US by that time.
Anyway ... I have some questions, because I'm still new to using it, but 
yet, I have turned my back on Windows for good.


When I start up my Mac, or just waking it up from sleeping, it says 3 
system dialogues".

And it will repeat it a couple of times.
Sometimes it's 1 system dialogue, or two or three system dialogues.

What is this?

About the notification center:
do I have to go in there from time to time and clean up, or is there a 
way for it to do it automatically?


Whichever app I use, I don't know if it is my internet connection or 
what, but like using something that doesn't even need a connection it 
will say busy busy busy, ready. Very irritating.


They say you can press command-tab to switch between windows.
Mine, when i press the combination, it just makes a dunk sound.
So I don't know if it's only me, but, I have to press the combination, 
then release, to give it time to focuss or something, and then I can 
hold in the command key and press tab repeatedly to cycle between 
windows.


And last for now, do any of you use Scrivener successfully? Is it 
possible and can someone email me off-list to help.


Thank you very very much for any help.
I am so excited about my Mac and all the things I can do with it.
Just a short amuzing story.
I was living with two room mates in Vancouver WA, The one guy had an HP 
printer, copier and scanner.
I had an HP pc trying to connect to this thing, wanting to print 
something.
I spent hours trying to find the right driver, and no matter how I tried 
to install it, it ended up giving me an error.
While I was wondering what I could do, the other guy came with his Mac, 
connected it to the HP printer, and I promise you, a few seconds later, 
the machine was spitting out paper.

I was dum-founded.
You would think: HP to HP ... easy, right?
That sold me to get a Mac. And also of course that it came with 
Voiceover.

Amazing!

Thank you,
God bless,
Dewald.

According to the FAQ, which you can read at
beta.apple.com
no features or bugs, unless publicly disclosed by Apple, shall be discussed 
with anyone not signed up to the public beta program or not running the public 
beta. That's the jist of it, anyway. So the short answer is no.

Thanks much. 

One message I did get had something to do with Adobe Flash player and a video. 
I’ll try clearing history and private browsing. I don’t have a lot of extras 
with Safari in part because I just have no real need for them at this point.

Re: Sorry if OT

2015-07-11 Thread Barry Hadder
Anything that Apple has made publicly available can be discussed.  All of there 
WWDC sessions are open to the public.  The following was amended to the Apple 
developer confidentiality agreement last year:
 Further, Apple agrees that you will not be bound by the foregoing 
confidentiality terms with regard to technical information about Apple pre- 
release software, services and/or hardware disclosed by Apple at WWDC (Apple’s 
Worldwide Developers Conference), except that you may not post screen shots of, 
write public reviews of, or redistribute any such materials.

So, it is a lot looser than it use to be.

Also, if there is an NDA in place for something prerelease, you should see the 
following at the beginning and end of the release notes:
THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS MESSAGE IS UNDER NON-DISCLOSURE

Just don’t post screen shots or distribute any binaries.
Read your legal agreements carefully.

If in Doubt, the developer forms are also a very useful resource for discussing 
issues with the betas.

Re: Safari stuck on Busy

2015-07-11 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Dear Janine,

It might help to "clear history and private data" in the safari menu.  
Sometimes there's a lot of junk accumulated in  your browser.  Also, have you 
got lots of extensions in Safari?  On a different note, Safari is much more 
sluggish in Yosemite compared to the previous operating system.  Let's hope El 
Capitan is going to change this.

Re: Continuity just doesn't work

2015-07-11 Thread Shaf

Airport Extreme, no major firewalls installed.


On 7/11/2015 6:55 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote:

Hi,

What kind of router are you using?  It's possible that if you have specific 
Firewalls enabled that this is restricting continuity features.  Also, are you 
getting any notifications when attempting to enable continuity between devices. 
 Usually, for Text Message forwarding and such, notifications are sent between 
devices if it takes.  That is, a confirmation dialog is sent to allow/disallow 
the continuity connection.  If this confirmation is not sent/received, then the 
relationship is not approved, thus continuity is not actually enabled.

There are really two separate components to “Continuity”, but both require 
iCloud.  They differ in how they use the network.

For iMessage SMS and FaceTime phone-call proxying, the devices just need Wi-Fi 
proximity and access to the same iCloud account.  In my experience this part is 
reliable—certainly absent other iCloud issues, anyroad.  Just look for the 
settings to set it up in the Settings app or in System Preferences.  It’s not 
all that intuitive.

The rest of Continuity, the so-called “Handoff” feature, and AirDrop and 
Hotspot, are in my experience (and it seems that of many others) the far more 
fragile part.  It uses iCloud, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy (which some 
hardware simply doesn’t have).  Wi-Fi on Macs requires dual association and is 
only supported by certain adaptors, but because of a design problem in the 
chipsets, frequently fails.  In my opinion, it’s not only not worth worrying 
about these features since they can generally be made up for with a bit of 
extra effort, but in any event they are so unreliable as to be of no real 
practical use.

Re: Continuity just doesn't work

2015-07-11 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

What kind of router are you using?  It's possible that if you have specific 
Firewalls enabled that this is restricting continuity features.  Also, are you 
getting any notifications when attempting to enable continuity between devices. 
 Usually, for Text Message forwarding and such, notifications are sent between 
devices if it takes.  That is, a confirmation dialog is sent to allow/disallow 
the continuity connection.  If this confirmation is not sent/received, then the 
relationship is not approved, thus continuity is not actually enabled.

Later...

Re: textDetective versus knfbReader

2015-07-11 Thread Todor Fassl
Well, I went ahead and bought the knfbReader so I will be able to do a 
comparison.  So far all I have done is to confirm that neither can read 
the blue screen of death on a Windows computer. I also put a linux 
computer into character mode and neither could read that screen either. 
That is really what I wanted it for.  But having something to read paper 
documents will be handy as well.


By the way, if you are curious, I artificially created the blue screen 
of death in a Windows virtual machine.  I don't actually have ablue 
screen of death right now.

Hello,

First, put your Braille Sense Plus in terminal for screen reader mode by doing 
the following:
Go to the utilities menu by pressing "u" from the main menu, and press "S" for 
"terminal for screen reader".
You'll be presented with a list of options, choose "bluetooth serial port" and 
press enter.
The unit will say "connecting..." and eventually, "terminal mode". Now, you're 
ready to go to your phone.
Go to settings>general>accessibility>voiceover>braille and scroll to the bottom of the 
screen where it will say "choose a braille display".
You should see "Braille Sense Plus not paired", at this point, double-tap on this, and in 
a couple seconds, you'll be presented with a text field, in which you can type in 4 digits for the 
pin code. They can be any 4 you want, and when you press the pair button in the right-hand corner 
of your screen, the message "pin code:" should appear on your Braille Sense's display.
Enter in the same digits you put in on your phone without any number sign, and 
in nemeth braille code. Press dot 8, (enter), and in a second or 2, your unit 
and your phone should pair successfully.

Re: Continuity just doesn't work

2015-07-11 Thread Shaf
Everybody should just throw away their Apple devices and switch to Nokia 
and Windows 95.


But seriously, I've even reformatted and restored every single device 
with no luck. I guess it's a feature Apple need to fix.

Hi,

Not that this helps your situation at all, but the inability to convince Apple 
that Continuity is broken is likely due to the fact that it isn't. Text 
forwarding and Continuity calling works flawlessly for me.  Even at work when I 
have my MBP plugged into ethernet, iPhone connected to enterprise WiFi, I could 
be off in a different part of the building with each unit connected to 
different network closets, and continuity calling works perfect.

I suggest that you disable all the continuity features, then re-enable them one 
at a time confirming that each works prior to moving on.  If it does not apply, 
then try with a different unit, thus determining where the issues may be.

Later...

did, the volume level was horrifficly quiet, and I couldn't find any way to

Good luck figuring this out, but admittedly, I'm not very optymistic at this

Subject: Continuity just doesn't work



Hi

So I've followed the instructions on Apple's KB article on setting up 
Continuity, but it just won't work.
I have the option enabled on all devices, Bluetooth is enabled, everything on 
same wi-fi network, all signed into the same iCloud account. When I'm writing 
mail on Mac for example, I don't see a Continuity icon on iPhone's App Switcher 
even though both devices are enabled.
Any suggestions? I've tried logging out and into iCloud and resetting devices 
but nothing.

Another issue I have is with Text Message Forwarding: on iPhone under Settings > 
Messages > Text Message Forwarding, it's only showing 1 Mac when I have two Macs 
set up. I have all devices set up to use my phone number and Apple ID, but only the 
most recent device to login to iMessage is shown. So if I disable a Mac's iMessage 
account then re-enable, that device only shows and same with the other Mac. Apple 
support have been useless. Any suggestions or fixes would be hugely appreciated.

Re: Introduction and some questions

2015-07-11 Thread Edward Green
Hi Dewald,

Good to have you on the list.

The Mac often displays warning messages in what Voiceover describes as System 
Dialogs.  These can range from backups not having been performed for a few 
days, through to low battery notifications.  In short, they’re worth dealing 
with.

In order to get to them, press VO f1 f1, or in other words, hold down control 
and option, and press f1 twice quickly.  This will put you in a list of running 
applications, use the up and down arrows until you hear ‘system dialog’.  
Pressing enter will put you in a list of the various system dialogs you have 
running, press enter on one of them and explore it using VO left and right 
arrows.  Note that the buttons to dismiss them (often close or ok) can appear 
at either the far left or far right of the dialog, depending on what the dialog 
is.

Cheers,

Ed

Re: Introduction and some questions

2015-07-11 Thread Dewald Gmail
Hi Chris. I guess it's just navigating around the complex interface. Do you use 
keyboard shortcuts to jump from the table to the text etc? 
I think it's probably just different to use than a normal word processor. 
If you can just explain what you put in the table. Do you add folders or 
headings in the table and then scenes underneath? 
How do you use it?
And do you use the inspector?
Is there any training material online that helped you?
I know there's the "Learn Scrivener fast" but it's very expensive and not sure 
if the video's are worth "listening" too. 

Thanks.

Hi all. My name is Dewald. I am from South Africa.
Jonathan Mosen recommended me to this list.
I am a piano technician and love to tinker with technology.
I got my first Mac in December of last year through a Black Friday deal on 
Best Buy.

I was still in the US by that time.
Anyway ... I have some questions, because I'm still new to using it, but 
yet, I have turned my back on Windows for good.


When I start up my Mac, or just waking it up from sleeping, it says 3 
system dialogues".

And it will repeat it a couple of times.
Sometimes it's 1 system dialogue, or two or three system dialogues.

What is this?

About the notification center:
do I have to go in there from time to time and clean up, or is there a way 
for it to do it automatically?


Whichever app I use, I don't know if it is my internet connection or what, 
but like using something that doesn't even need a connection it will say 
busy busy busy, ready. Very irritating.


They say you can press command-tab to switch between windows.
Mine, when i press the combination, it just makes a dunk sound.
So I don't know if it's only me, but, I have to press the combination, 
then release, to give it time to focuss or something, and then I can hold 
in the command key and press tab repeatedly to cycle between windows.


And last for now, do any of you use Scrivener successfully? Is it possible 
and can someone email me off-list to help.


Thank you very very much for any help.
I am so excited about my Mac and all the things I can do with it.
Just a short amuzing story.
I was living with two room mates in Vancouver WA, The one guy had an HP 
printer, copier and scanner.
I had an HP pc trying to connect to this thing, wanting to print 
something.
I spent hours trying to find the right driver, and no matter how I tried 
to install it, it ended up giving me an error.
While I was wondering what I could do, the other guy came with his Mac, 
connected it to the HP printer, and I promise you, a few seconds later, 
the machine was spitting out paper.

I was dum-founded.
You would think: HP to HP ... easy, right?
That sold me to get a Mac. And also of course that it came with Voiceover.
Amazing!

Thank you,
God bless,
Dewald.

Re: improvements in eclipse accessibility

2015-07-11 Thread Yuma Decaux
Hey Juan,

That’s great news. I’ll stick to using eclim as I like my vim commands, but 
this will definetely be a nice addition for everyone who wants to use eclipse 
for uni courses.

For the auto completion bit, if you do vo f2 twice and pull up the window, go 
to the last element of said window and you will get to the correct list of 
suggestions. I know this is long and tedious to do for each auto completion 
session, which is why I suggested the applescript. There might be a better 
method for this, such as a new feature on el capitan but I haven’t tested it 
out yet.

There might, alternatively, be a way to get rid of that description window to 
force vo focus directly onto the list of suggestions.

Cheers,

Tip: GB for Mac: Alert windows

2015-07-11 Thread Roland Zitzke
Hi, this is mainly a follow-up to a previous topic but it might help others 
who run into the same problem with GB, it took me quite some time to figure 
this out.

When using smart controls like the arpeggiator on an instrument track, GB 
lets you save such settings. If you then change the instrument GB will 
alert you that changes may get lost and it asks you to save them - so far 
so good.

However, this dialog is not really modal and it may well lose focus. 

In that case it looks to VO like everything is working except you cannot 
change the instrument.

The solution is trivial once you know what’s going on, just press VO+F2 
twice, select the dialog and dismiss it, you can even chose to never show 
it again.

Hope this is helpful to someone.

Roland

Introduction and some questions

2015-07-11 Thread Dewald Gmail
Hi all. My name is Dewald. I am from South Africa. 
Jonathan Mosen recommended me to this list. 
I am a piano technician and love to tinker with technology. 
I got my first Mac in December of last year through a Black Friday deal on Best 
Buy. 
I was still in the US by that time. 
Anyway ... I have some questions, because I'm still new to using it, but yet, I 
have turned my back on Windows for good. 

When I start up my Mac, or just waking it up from sleeping, it says 3 system 
dialogues".
And it will repeat it a couple of times.
Sometimes it's 1 system dialogue, or two or three system dialogues. 

What is this?

About the notification center: 
do I have to go in there from time to time and clean up, or is there a way for 
it to do it automatically? 

Whichever app I use, I don't know if it is my internet connection or what, but 
like using something that doesn't even need a connection it will say busy busy 
busy, ready. Very irritating. 

They say you can press command-tab to switch between windows.
Mine, when i press the combination, it just makes a dunk sound. 
So I don't know if it's only me, but, I have to press the combination, then 
release, to give it time to focuss or something, and then I can hold in the 
command key and press tab repeatedly to cycle between windows. 

And last for now, do any of you use Scrivener successfully? Is it possible and 
can someone email me off-list to help.

Thank you very very much for any help. 
I am so excited about my Mac and all the things I can do with it. 
Just a short amuzing story. 
I was living with two room mates in Vancouver WA, The one guy had an HP 
printer, copier and scanner. 
I had an HP pc trying to connect to this thing, wanting to print something. 
I spent hours trying to find the right driver, and no matter how I tried to 
install it, it ended up giving me an error. 
While I was wondering what I could do, the other guy came with his Mac, 
connected it to the HP printer, and I promise you, a few seconds later, the 
machine was spitting out paper. 
I was dum-founded. 
You would think: HP to HP ... easy, right?
