Re: delting files in mavericks?
I didn’t think so, either. I finally got it fixed by repairing disk permissions and running onyx. I actually had to go and repair my start up disk too, so possibly something was just really messed up all over. stuff seems to be mostly working now, though. some small weirdnesses, but there always are with new OS’s. :) thanks!

Mail in Mavericks has become way to chatty for my tastes and I’m hoping I’ve just missed a setting to make it stop. In Mountain Lion, I had my message list set up so all I heard was the sender, and the subject. If there was an attachment, I heard that too. Now it seems the time that the message was sent and some other stuff that just slows me down is included and I haven’t found a way to turn it off. Second, the number of messages in a conversation is now spoken at the end, after the message header details and the message preview. I’d prefer the old behaviour, where I heard how big the conversation was at the very beginning. And finally, I used to get from my message list to the email i wanted to read by pressing VO+J. The message would immediately start to read. Now it seems a first press of VO+J does nothing at all, and to do the same thing that once took 1 press of VO+J now takes three. I think this latter one is a bug. I’ve really enjoyed using Mail in Mountain Lion but if I can’t get the chatty behaviour under control, will run Outlook in a VM. Thanks for any thoughts.

Hi, I upgraded to mavericks tonight, something I usually don’t do!. anyway, some of the keystrokes might’ve changed, but when I checked, sure enough, the one for deletion of a file is supposedly still command delete, but mine isn’t working, I get an annoying bonk sound.

airport extreme hook up question
Hi, We just got an extreme and I have a few questions. We currently have one of those modem/router boxes from our internet provider. We want to replace the router in that box with the extreme. How is this done? Do I deactivate the router in the modem box, then attach the extreme to the box and configure the extreme?

pages question
Hi, I am wondering how to go about getting pages back on my mac. When I first got my mac, I also purchased an I work cd from apple. My mac came with pages already installed. We also put pages on Mark's mac, which was allowed. somewhere along the way of upgrading OS's, pages isn't on my mac anymore. I can't find the original CD, either. I copied the i work folder from Mark's applications folder and pasted it on mine. I got the message that I needed to be running the latest version, but there was no button to update, etc, just that error message. there is no record of my purchasing I work in the mac app store, of course. Will I have to buy each element of I work again just to get the latest versions? thanks, Cait -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: how to create folders in iOS7?
Hi Danielle, You have to put apps on top of one another, just as before. The trick is that sometimes you have to hold them there for a little while before the folder is created. I'm finding that you also have to have a light touch on the screen, this for me, seemed to work better then really pushing down. hth, Caitlyn On 2013-09-22, at 3:43 PM, Daniela Rubio wrote: > Hi all! > I just have reconfigured my iPad as a new iPad, and now I have all my apps > without folders.

Re: Option T for time, Apple Script on new MBA
Hey Kim, Go into the vo utility and pick the first row in the table, it might be called general or something like that. this is where you can add a personalized greeting when the computer is turned on. In this same row is the radio button for "use apple scripts". Make sure this is checked. Now go down to the commanders row. Go into that and pick keyboard commander. Make sure that keyboard commander is selected/turned on. If you look under this, I think the one for time is under there.

Yes, I'd try removing them and then reinstalling. There hasn't been an update to the tools as tar as I know. I used the ones that came with version 6.0.

Re: regarding VMware tools on vmware fewtion 6 and windows xp
I'm running an xp virtual machine and am doing the trial version of fusion 6.0. I had to try installing vm tools twice, but it took on the second try. I am not having issues with crashing. How much ram do you have on your mac? also, wonder if you need to make the ram for the vm more then it presently is?

To turn the preview pane off, from the message column, vo right arrow over to the horizontal splitter and interact with that. then do a vo space. to simulate a mouse click. that should get rid of it for you.

Re: braille commands and more
Oh, so I set that from the sense unit itself! thanks, I'll try that and see what happens. I finally got rid of the continuous dots 7 and 8 by just turning off the "dots 7 and 8 to indicate cursor, on" button in VO utility. this is good, but knowing exactly where the cursor is, like what character, etc, would still be good.

Re: braille commands and more
Les, How do I get the blinking cursor? I've just been playing around the braille section of VO help and didn't see anything about this? I'm using a braille sense plus as my display. If I can get the constant presence of dots 7 and 8 to go away, my reading life will vastly improve! thanks, Cait On 2013-08-03, at 4:05 PM, Les Kriegler wrote: > I think the purpose of the DOS is the show you where the cursor is.

Re: braille commands and more
Yep! I'm thinking about turning the darn thing off for the time being. Just about everything I read is underlined, too-I think this is showing that it's highlighted, but it's annoying. Can I turn this feature off, too? Since listening to a podcast recently, I've learned that I can do way more input from the actual display then I thought I could originally, so am using the display more these days. Any help anybody can give, etc, would be great so I can use this more. Cait On 2013-08-03, at 2:54 PM, Paul Henrichsen wrote: > I have the same concerns. What does that status cell mean?

Re: alva?
thanks Buddy. I did want the braille edge, but ADP doesn't cover that one, unfortunately. It was either the brilliant, the focus ones, or the alva.

Re: alva?
Eric, This is funded through ADP. My only choices were/are the brilliant, the alva, and the freedom scientific focus products. I really wanted a braille edge, but no go. It might be problematic to go back to get this changed.. thanks for your input, though. I haven't cemented anything in stone yet with the vender.

Re: alva?
why do you prefer the brilliant over the alva? I looked at the brilliant and while it seems sturdy, you can't do braille input on it.

Hi, does anybody here have any experiences with i pal to share? considering it and the hover cam, but want input before making a final decision. Before somebody suggests it, I've tried docuscan and for some stupid reason I can't get it to work on my particular mac.

Re: braille edge display and voice over?
Eric, Thanks tons! This is totally helpful. It doesn't surprise me about WE at all. I don't use fusion all that much, just for my school and I can live with maybe using computer braille for that if needs be. I won't be buying anymore sma's for that program after version 8.0 I don't think.. the rest sounds great, though. I've been struggling along with my old bps for awhile now, so having 40 cells sounds a treat but I got used to 32 cells.

which braille display?
Hi, I'm in the market for a braille display to use with an i mac and possibly a mac laptop and maybe down the line an i pad. I can't see myself wanting any less then 32 cells. anyone got any suggestions of good ones? I've been using my Braille sense Plus, but it's dying a slow painful death, so that's why I'm starting to research something new now. the only other one I've had experience with was the focus 40 but that was problematic with the mac in that I didn't get full functionalityy for obvious reasons. thanks so much for any insights and or suggestions!

Re: VMWare Fusion questions
Alex, Setting up the vm is accessible. I think as long as you have the key you can put it on three machines. My vm is 40 gigs, but all I'm using my windows machine for is k1000 and some windows games that don't have mac versions yet so I don't need a big one. Hope somebody else can answer the other questions you have.

Harry, There's froths. I know you said you weren't interested in the iOS side of things. they do have an iOS version of it, but they might do a mac version as well, I think I remember somebody saying there was awhile back. There are tons of games that come with it. hth, Cait On 2013-05-20, at 5:45 PM, Harry Hogue wrote: > Hello, > > Is anyone familiar with how to play text adventure games on OSX under > Mountain Lion?
