Well I have a nice bottle of whiskey, but I’ll not touch that at the moment as 
I’m just heading off to work now. 
Thanks again for all the help.

 Hi,
 
 One other thing to check is cursor tracking.  If you believe that you're 
 focused on a specific album, but the cmd-i brings up a different album, 
 then it sounds to me that your cursors may not be following each other.  
 There are multiple ways to skin a cat, not that I've ever skinned one, but 
 if you are wanting to affect albums, then it is best to select Albums from 
 the Library sidebar.  If you're simply wishing to change things one album 
 at a time, then Grid view works fine.  Just interact with the Grid, then 
 VO-space on the album you wish to make changes to, interact with the 
 resulting album details, VO-space on the Action menu and select Album Info 
 from that menu.  Modifying the info here will change the tag info for the 
 entire album.  The same thing can be done when Albums is selected in the 
 Library sidebar under List view.  The difference is that you can use the 
 cmd-i command and more easily do multiple albums.  While in List view, you 
 can use the shift-arrow to select multiple albums adjacent to each other, 
 or use VO-cmd-return to select multiple non-contiguous items followed by 
 the cmd-i to Get Info.  Changing the info tags using this method will 
 change all titles within all the selected albums to your desired genre.  
 You could also select Songs from the Library sidebar, then sort by album 
 either from the View menu, or by using the VO-shift-back slash command to 
 jump to the Header area of the columns.  When sorted by album, then use 
 shift-arrow to select multiple titles from the same album and cmd-i to 
 bring up the Get Info dialog.
 
 There you go, one poor cat skinned more than one way.

Hi Petrus,

Yes, it should change on your iOS devices as well.  Sometimes, it takes a few 
minutes to properly sync, but it will actually happen.  Don't give up yet.  
Keep trying and ask lots of questions.  It will likely get to a point where you 
say something to the effect of "Why did I find this so bloody difficult 
before?"  We're here to help, although on occasion, we probably just drive you

 Hi,
 The Purchased AAC Audio files are, of course, those that you purchased 
 from the iTunes Store.  If it says MPEG Audio File, then it is likely an 
 mp3.  If it says AAC Audio File, then it is an Apple AAC file.
 Regarding the checked items thing, in the Summary pane, if the item is 
 checked to only sync checked music, then once you applied the change, all 
 the unchecked items would have been automatically removed from the iPhone.

Re: Music genres in iTunes

2019-05-14 Thread Petrus Tuerlings
Hi ET, 
I think I might have managed to change the Genre of one album so far, although 
I’ve got a headache now. I had to follow Tims other instruction  and VO space 
on the actions menu in the album as command I most definitely isn’t working, If 
I try command I it gives me info on a totally different album, so I suspect 
that my cursor tracking is at fault and they are not following correctly.
Now keep in mind, I only said I think I’ve done it, I’m guessing if I change 
the Genre on my Mac it will show up in my music App on my phone as well?
Thanks again for all the help.
Not sure how to fix the cursors,  but I’m not going to try that today, I think 
I’ll have a strong coffee instead.

Hi,

One other thing to check is cursor tracking.  If you believe that 
you're focused on a specific album, but the cmd-i brings up a 
different album, then it sounds to me that your cursors may not be 
following each other.  There are multiple ways to skin a cat, not that 
I've ever skinned one, but if you are wanting to affect albums, then 
it is best to select Albums from the Library sidebar.  If you're 
simply wishing to change things one album at a time, then Grid view 
works fine.  Just interact with the Grid, then VO-space on the album 
you wish to make changes to, interact with the resulting album 
details, VO-space on the Action menu and select Album Info from that 
menu.  Modifying the info here will change the tag info for the entire 
album.  The same thing can be done when Albums is selected in the 
Library sidebar under List view.  The difference is that you can use 
the cmd-i command and more easily do multiple albums.  While in List 
view, you can use the shift-arrow to select multiple albums adjacent 
to each other, or use VO-cmd-return to select multiple non-contiguous 
items followed by the cmd-i to Get Info.  Changing the info tags using 
this method will change all titles within all the selected albums to 
your desired genre.  You could also select Songs from the Library 
sidebar, then sort by album either from the View menu, or by using the 
VO-shift-back slash command to jump to the Header area of the columns. 
 When sorted by album, then use shift-arrow to select multiple titles 
from the same album and cmd-i to bring up the Get Info dialog.


There you go, one poor cat skinned more than one way.

Hi,
Usually, anything purchased from iTunes should read as "Purchased AAC 
Audio File".  A plain old AAC Audio File is one that iTunes may have 
converted itself when importing a CD or other media into iTunes. 
 Now, that's a "usually", so, if it's misbehaving, then I'd have to 
play with it more.  It sounds like you're fine with it now, so, so am 
I :).

Hi,
The Purchased AAC Audio files are, of course, those that you 
purchased from the iTunes Store.  If it says MPEG Audio File, then 
it is likely an mp3.  If it says AAC Audio File, then it is an Apple

Regarding the checked items thing, in the Summary pane, if the item 
is checked to only sync checked music, then once you applied the 
change, all the unchecked items would have been automatically

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Les, thanks for that description. That’s what should happen. I’m not sure 
what’s happening for me. I am noticing that with my Apple remote, I’m getting a 
lot of skipping like when I flip to the right and go from row one column one 
all the way over to column four or even five. That didn’t used to happen. So I 
don’t know if I’m doing something different for my remote is acting strange or 
what. When I flip to the left from the list of games that are active when I see 
the scores tab, nothing happens. It doesn’t do anything. And I’m not seeing any 
list of games other than what comes up when I’m in the scores tab. Is that 
where you’re finding your list of games?

Hi!
Is the Logic Pro X easier to use than garage band app?
I am thinking of maybe buying Logic pro but if its like garageBand then i don’t 
know actually.
GrageBand seems to be a bit klunky but maybe i am not used to  it.

Re: A MacBook Pro keyboard question?

2019-05-14 Thread Pete De Vasto
Not knowing if you prefer USB or Bluetooth, I’m going to mail you a link with 
search results for “numeric keypad with num lock support”. Some of the keypads 
don’t support num lock apparently. As a JAWS user, of course, it’ll be 
imperative that you can activate or deactivate num lock. The other thing for me 
is that my older keypad has physical keys, but the new ones seem to be 
different. I’d rather you check the different ones out, including reviews, 
rather than recommending something. So, here’s the link:

I like having the "kind" displayed.  When in iTunes, press cmd-j to 
bring up View options, navigate through the list and check it.  This

Can you email me a link? So that I can put it in my cart. Also what are 
the ratings for this device. If the ratings are very good and I think 
this would work. If they aren’t very good I just be throwing away 
money. That’s my experience with anything from Amazon. Besides I’m

RE: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Mary,

Well, I’m glad you got it working on your fire stick.  I used the Apple Remote. 
 When I reached the list of games, I flicked left, one finger flick, and got to 
the previous day.  I then pressed in on the remote to select it.  I was able to 
scroll through the list of games, I think I flicked left and right, but 
flicking up and down also allows navigation.  I chose last night’s Brewers 
Phillies game, and received the same options for recap, condensed and 
home/away.  I flicked down on the remote to view these options.  I was able to 
choose the station I wanted, and pressed in on the remote.  The archived game 
started playing.  If you cannot figure this out and wish to do so, I’d be glad 
to call you and go through each step.

Yes. I just tried it again on my Fire TV, and it worked. So I’m not sure what

it works with the other one, it’s less of a big deal. Just one more reason not

 But I’m not finding anyway to access anything previous, much less news or

However, now I’m gonna check out that game myself to see what it was all about.

Enjoy!

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Pete,
Yes. I just tried it again on my Fire TV, and it worked. So I’m not sure what 
was happening yesterday. I still can’t figure it out on the Apple TV. But since 
it works with the other one, it’s less of a big deal. Just one more reason not 
to use the Apple TV much.

 I can’t seem to find a way to access archived games on the Apple TV 
 version of MLB. I’m seeing our tabs for scores, settings, and standings. 
 But I’m not finding anyway to access anything previous, much less news or

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Mary,

Actually, I was using the TV remote because I have a talking TV on our main TV. 
However, I do have an older Apple TV in our bedroom with the Apple TV remote. 
I’ll give it a try and get back to you. Hopefully, there should be a way to use 
the remote. I swipe to the left on the remote and I have been able to navigate. 
But I’ll try this one specifically and let you know what I find.

Hi again, Mary,

Geez, MLB.TV makes it sound so horribly simple:

I assume you found the At Bat app on your Fire TV, and that's how you were 
trying to login?

Hi Pete,
Well, I was having a fight yesterday with the Fire TV, not letting me want to 
login with my MLB credentials, which I double checked, just to make sure I 
hadn’t screwed up. I tried it twice, and it just wasn’t letting me in, so I 
decided to try the Apple TV instead and ran into the problem I previously 
described. Maybe the Fire TV will be nice to me today and actually let me in. I 
missed that great dodger game on Sunday, and I want to see it.

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Pete De Vasto
OK Mary,

If you can, go to the MLB.TV web site and look up registering your Fire TV. 
It’s been a while since I set mine up, but I seem to remember that you have to 
login via the web site and somehow link your account up with your Fire TV. Do 
you happen to remember the message you were getting when you tried logging in? 
If I have time I’ll see if I can look up what has to be done for you.

Pete

 Subject: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games
 
 I can’t seem to find a way to access archived games on the Apple TV 
 version of MLB. I’m seeing our tabs for scores, settings, and standings. 
 But I’m not finding anyway to access anything previous, much less news or 
 anything like that. What am I missing?

Re: Google drive storage

2019-05-14 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi,

I use Google Drive FileStream instead of Backup & Sync, so I'm not totally 
familiar with the intricacies of the Backup & Sync service,.  Google Drive 
FileStream is only available to G Suite for Education or G Suite for Business, 
thus it's not an option for you.  That all being said, there's two places to 
check things.  First, is in the Backup & Sync Extras menu, under Preferences.  
The second is in Safari or Chrome browser, in Drive under Settings.  I believe 
that there's a computers item there that may be a factor.  Normally, it should 
just delete from the web or Cloud version of drive at the same time as you 
delete from your Mac, so something is being uncooperative.  Take a look at this 
YouTube help link.  I believe he has the info you need in his tutorials.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4kJ9-j_FUY 


You may need to listen to multiple tutorials to get the best info.  Note that 
you don[t need to use Chrome as he does, Safari will suffice.

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Pete,
Well, I was having a fight yesterday with the Fire TV, not letting me want to 
login with my MLB credentials, which I double checked, just to make sure I 
hadn’t screwed up. I tried it twice, and it just wasn’t letting me in, so I 
decided to try the Apple TV instead and ran into the problem I previously 
described. Maybe the Fire TV will be nice to me today and actually let me in. I 
missed that great dodger game on Sunday, and I want to see it.

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Les,
Well I must clearly be missing something. You mentioned arrow in to the left. I 
wonder if you’re using a Bluetooth keyboard. I was using the Apple TV remote. 
And if I flick to the left in a list of games I don’t go anywhere. I don’t see 
anything about yesterday. In fact, right now, I can’t remember how I actually 
saw any games at all. Because I remember seeing the settings and scores and 
standing tabs, all of which could be selected. And maybe it was in the scores 
tab where some of the live games were still in progress. But that was it. 
Clarification if possible would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

Re: A MacBook Pro keyboard question?

2019-05-14 Thread Pete De Vasto
Quite some time ago, in the days when I was using a Windows laptop, I picked up 
a USB number pad that I could connect to it so I could have the insert key 
available. That number pad works with my MacBook Air as well, so I suspect that 
would be true for the Pro model as well. Out of curiosity, I checked on Amazon, 
and discovered they still make these number pads, both bluetooth and USB. The 
USB ones are very inexpensive, but you tie up a USB port when you use it. The 
bluetooth ones I saw run about $25 US dollars.

HTH,

Re: Music genres in iTunes

2019-05-14 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi,

One other thing to check is cursor tracking.  If you believe that you're 
focused on a specific album, but the cmd-i brings up a different album, then it 
sounds to me that your cursors may not be following each other.  There are 
multiple ways to skin a cat, not that I've ever skinned one, but if you are 
wanting to affect albums, then it is best to select Albums from the Library 
sidebar.  If you're simply wishing to change things one album at a time, then 
Grid view works fine.  Just interact with the Grid, then VO-space on the album 
you wish to make changes to, interact with the resulting album details, 
VO-space on the Action menu and select Album Info from that menu.  Modifying 
the info here will change the tag info for the entire album.  The same thing 
can be done when Albums is selected in the Library sidebar under List view.  
The difference is that you can use the cmd-i command and more easily do 
multiple albums.  While in List view, you can use the shift-arrow to select 
multiple albums adjacent to each other, or use VO-cmd-return to select multiple 
non-contiguous items followed by the cmd-i to Get Info.  Changing the info tags 
using this method will change all titles within all the selected albums to your 
desired genre.  You could also select Songs from the Library sidebar, then sort 
by album either from the View menu, or by using the VO-shift-back slash command 
to jump to the Header area of the columns.  When sorted by album, then use 
shift-arrow to select multiple titles from the same album and cmd-i to bring up 
the Get Info dialog.

There you go, one poor cat skinned more than one way.

Totally doable.  Simply select the song, songs, or titles within an album then 
press cmd-i to Get Info on the songs.  Either press tab until you find the 
Genre field, or VO navigate to the Scroll area, interact with it and navigate 
to the Genre field.  When focused on this field, you can VO-space to choose 
from the available genres, or type one in yourself if you'd prefer to create 
your own.  Navigate to the OK button and press it and voila, all done.

iTunes says they are. When I’m at work I like to choose a genre and set it to

RE: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Mary,

Once you launch MLB TV and you are in the current day’s list of games, arrow 
left and choose previous day and select it.  Now, if that’s the day you wish, 
you can choose a game.  If you want another day in the past, you can scroll 
left and choose the day you wish and select that day.  Once you choose a game, 
you will have three choices.  The first is Recap, then condensed, and then 
you’ll see the stations both home and away.  You pick the feed you wish, and 
the archive game will start playing.  Hope that helps.

If you have a subscription to MLB TV, which I do through T-Mobile, I can get to 
the archives on my phone. I just don’t want to use my phone battery so much 
when I have a perfectly good Apple TV. I believe I can also get to them on the 
Fire TV if I can ever get logged in.

Re: MLB TV on Apple TV: how to find archive games

2019-05-14 Thread Pete De Vasto
Mary,

I have the Fire TV stick, and MLB At Bat works great with their Voice View 
screen reader. I play archived games all the time, and using the play control 
buttons for fast forward, rewind and pause work just about flawlessly. So if 
you could, in fact, figure how to get yourself logged in, I think you’d be very 
happy. I do not have Apple TV, so can’t speak to that part of the thread.

Re: Song Counts

2019-05-14 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi Anders,

Maybe use the Keyboard Practice feature to determine which key combination is 
used on the Swedish keyboard.  When in Keyboard Practice mode, pressing VO 
along with keys should announce the VO function for that combination.  
Alternatively, press VO-h, go down to Commands Help, then right and down to 
Tables, and right to the Jump to Header to see what command is noted.

Hi,

Since they are purchased content, you should be able to easily delete then 
re-download the album without losing anything.  Worth a try anyway.  If you're 
at all worried about losing things, you can copy the existing album to the 
Desktop temporarily.

This isn't for Voice Over and the Apple OS X environment. It's for
Windows 10, so is relevant here because of Bootcamp.

You would use whichever screen reader you use with Windows on Bootcamp,
e.g. NVDA.

At least this is how it's worked for the past 3 years since Microsoft
first introduced a Linux subsystem in Windows 10. Perhaps the fact that
the new approach Microsoft announced relies on a virtual machine might
indeed take Windows screen readers out of the picture, and one will need
something native to Linux like Fenrir probably. Time will tell, I
suppose.

Best,

Janina

Oh, and every Chromebook will also support Linux (plus Android) out of
the box, according to Google's announcement last week.

We all know, of course, that home brew will let us run all kinds of
Linux in the Mac Terminal already.

Hi,

It would be nice for it to be Canada, but I don't tend to hold up much hope for 
that nowadays.  Too much politics and such in the game.  Good to have your home 
country to cheer for though.

  Yes, you're right in that you really shouldn't have to mess with the 
 genres.  I get it that some song titles fit into multiple genres, but some 
 of the categorizations are rather bewildering.  It might be nice if we 
 could assign multiple genres to a song so that it could be more accurately

Re: How about some Linux with your Windows 10 Bootcamp?

2019-05-14 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries
Hi, Karen:

This isn't for Voice Over and the Apple OS X environment. It's for
Windows 10, so is relevant here because of Bootcamp.

You would use whichever screen reader you use with Windows on Bootcamp,
e.g. NVDA.

At least this is how it's worked for the past 3 years since Microsoft
first introduced a Linux subsystem in Windows 10. Perhaps the fact that
the new approach Microsoft announced relies on a virtual machine might
indeed take Windows screen readers out of the picture, and one will need
something native to Linux like Fenrir probably. Time will tell, I
suppose.

Best,

Janina

Re: How about some Linux with your Windows 10 Bootcamp?

2019-05-14 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries
Hi, Simon:

I don't think it's an actual parallel situation. Windows isn't switching
to a Linux kernel for native Windows desktop and apps. Rather, they're
adding a more tightly integrated Linux subsystem into Windows 10 based
on a compile of the native Linux kernel running in their own virtual
machine.

One of the more interesting items in the announcement is the support for
docker containers. This is being overshadowed by the Linux announcement,
but it's potentially far more relevant to more users of Windows, and I
wonder we don't yet support these natively on OS X. Here's an Info World
article about docker:

https://www.infoworld.com/article/3204171/what-is-docker-docker-containers-explained.html

Best,

Re: reinstalling mac OS?

2019-05-14 Thread Georgina Joyce
Hello Simon,

I think you are mixing up with parallels. See this link:

https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/reinstall-osx-do-i-need-to-backup-my-bootcamp-partition.452129/
 

Bootcamp creates a partition and if you choose to install Mac OS on bootcamp

Subject: Re: Shuffling music by genre in IOS?

Okay, I’m keeping a few of these emails as I asked a similar question last 
week, and Tim gave me the answer. I haven’t had a chance to try it yet as I 
find navigating iTunes on the Mac a little confusing, and my wife has been home 
sick for the last five days.  But hopefully I’ll be able to change the genre  
of some of my music with a little bit of patience. Do we need to change each 
song or can we change the genre of an entire album?
Although I think I kept the email telling us how to ignore certain songs when 
using shuffle, so I might try that too.
Yes, I remember the old music stores, I did my first over seas trip in the mid 
to late 80s to Europe and found a record store called White noise…don’t even 
know if they still exist.  It was very hard to find heavy metal music in New 
Zealand back in the 1980s so I went slightly mad and spent about $300 in one 
day. But I think a lot of you would think I am mad for liking heavy metal 
anyway.

Yes, you're right in that you really shouldn't have to mess with the genres.  I 
get it that some song titles fit into multiple genres, but some of the 
categorizations are rather bewildering.  It might be nice if we could assign 
multiple genres to a song so that it could be more accurately assigned.

Hi,

Usually, anything purchased from iTunes should read as "Purchased AAC Audio 
File".  A plain old AAC Audio File is one that iTunes may have converted itself 
when importing a CD or other media into iTunes.  Now, that's a "usually", so, 
if it's misbehaving, then I'd have to play with it more.  It sounds like you're 
fine with it now, so, so am I :).

Hi,
The Purchased AAC Audio files are, of course, those that you purchased from the 
iTunes Store.  If it says MPEG Audio File, then it is likely an mp3.  If it 
says AAC Audio File, then it is an Apple AAC file.
Regarding the checked items thing, in the Summary pane, if the item is checked 
to only sync checked music, then once you applied the change, all the unchecked 
items would have been automatically removed from the iPhone.

In iTunes on your Mac, make sure that the Music table is in List view, then

the Header info for the columns.  Either sort it by "Kind" or by iCloud status 
if that is a column.  You can press cmd-j to bring up the View options if

RE: Windows 10 Releaces to install on my mac mini

2019-05-14 Thread Simon Fogarty
So long as you have the iso file and once installed the product key.
Once you have the machine up and running you will be able to update to the 
latest updates.

Note, the 1809 installer may give an issue with bootcamp so you have to go back 
to 1803 to install windows through bootcamp and then update to 1809
This may have been corrected in the latest MacOS release but I don’t believe so.

Hope that helps.

Hello Simon,
Here’s the link i used.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO

Only the updates from 2018 are available.  Is there another page I should use?
Also, can this release be used as an installer for Boot  Camp from scratch?
Thanks.

Hi Danny,

There is an 18 03 and 18 09,
But as of Friday 10 may, there is a small update labelled as 1904
It's not that large a size infact it took less than 10 minutes to install

So it's out there,

Hello Simon,
I just checked and the only thing I see on the microsoft page is april and 
october 2018. Then I found something regarding that this latest update is only 
for testers.
I’ll check back later with the microsoft download page.

I’ve installed windows 10, 1809 with no problem on my mac mini 2018, using 
bootcamp.
I got the iso from the microsoft download center.
I’ve  also done a little audio walk thru on installing it with bootcamp.
If I can find it, I’ll  post a link.

Hi yeah it's is a known issue currently so if your really worried about it then 
your best bet is to use  a virtual environment such as vm fusion or virtual box.

That way you don't need to re image your machine just delete the virtual 
machine.

Hello,Thanks for that.
Here’s one of the problems I had with my MBP 2014 year machine. I had windows 
installed and everything was going just fine. Then I decided to uninstall it 
after a few weeks. Then a few weeks later, probably in February this year, I 
reinstalled windows 10 on that machine again. Then after a whole bunch of 
updates,and after I was done with windows at that point, I attempted to 
uninstall it. But for some reason, I was unable to uninstall it. Not only would 
boot camp not uninstall it, I had to reformat the SSD and reinstall the Mac os.
So, I’m wanting to avoide these kinds of problems. That is why I asked about 
the next installable release of windows.
Later.

It's not yet out,

But yes there is an issue in boot camp installing win 10 1809 as you
said,

However the known solution is to install windows 10 1803 which works
very well and is fully accessible during installation And then once
you have that installed you can update to 1809 with out issue and
still with full accessibility

I've been able to set this up 5 times this year on different machines without 
assistance.
Hope this helps.

Hi list,
Here’s another question regarding installing windows 10 on my new mac mini OS X 
14.4.
I know there were some problems with installing the October 2018 release of 
windows 10. I also know that the April 2018 release of windows worked ok for 
installing on the mac.
Here’s my question.
When will this year’s April release be available for mac users to download and 
install?
TIA.

Yes  most likely you wont have a bootcamp left as it's only a service within

Hi folks.

Was doing some thinking.

If I erase the drive and reinstall the OS, will it mes up the bootcamp side?

Then after I've reinstalled the OS, then decide I want to erase the bootcamp 
side with bootcamp will that work?

Announced last week and causing quite a stir in certain circles, Microsoft is 
tightly integrating a Linux subsystem into Windows 10 for shipment later this 
year.

https://www.pcworld.com/article/3394680/how-windows-and-chrome-quietly-made-2019-the-year-of-linux-on-the-desktop.html


Oh, and every Chromebook will also support Linux (plus Android) out of the box, 
according to Google's announcement last week.

We all know, of course, that home brew will let us run all kinds of Linux in 
the Mac Terminal already.

Best,

Janina
