XS speakers vs the eight generation's

[Daniel McGee]

Hi all 



>From the apple keynote, I got the impression that the XS iPhone's had: stereo 
>speakers and that they are meant to be louder than the iPhone 8 generations of 
>iPhone's. 

Do I have this correct? Or was this for a specific feature only on the XS 
models for something in particular towards the iOS operating system. 

Looking forward to any clarity on this topic that any of you can provide me 
with. 

Kind regards 

Daniel

Audacity Tutorials

[Pete De Vasto]

Hi,

I’m still struggling with trying to get windows under VMWare Fusion to see the 
line-in jack on my late 2014 Mac mini. One person in the group suggested I 
double-check that VMWare Tools was installed, and it is, but still no line-in 
jack. It looks like the only sound device that comes with windows under VMWare 
is HDAudio, and for some reason it’s not picking up the line-in jack. When I 
installed Windows under Bootcamp, I had a Cirrus Logic CS4208 (AB 108) driver, 
and the line-in jack showed up just fine. I’m trying to get hold of VMWare 
support, but to me it looks like I have to have a purchased copy of Fusion 
before they’ll talk to me. Everything else I need to do in Windows can be done 
with a VMWare machine on my Mac, so I really would much prefer not to have to 
reboot every time I want to do tape transfers.

So if I can’t use VMWare Windows, I’m looking at Audacity 2.1.1. I understand 
this earlier version does work pretty well with VoiceOver. Has anyone used 
Audacity to transfer recordings from an external tape recorder of any kind? If 
not, have you used any other software on the Mac? Finally, if anyone has used 
Audacity, are there any tutorials out there besides the documentation that 
comes with it?

Thanks so much for any help,
Pete De Vasto

Re: Running Ubuntu in vmware fusion.

[Chris Moore]

Hello,
I haven’t tried this in vmware, but as I recall, there are keystrokes for 
switching between consoles.
Unless it has changed, Ubuntu has six text consoles  accessed with ctrl+alt+f1 
through control+alt+f6 and the graphical console with ctrl+alt+f7

On the mac, ctrl+alt would equate to ctrl+option which is the VO key.  So I 
would try turning VO off in fusion before trying the above keystrokes to switch 
consoles.
