IPad mini versus iPad Pro with braille display?
Hello everyone, This is Chenelle, I just purchased the iPad mini for 64 gig and I wanted to know what people thoughts were with using it with a braille edge 40 display? Thank you so much and have a great day. I also thought about getting the iPad Pro 128 gig but due to finances I went with a mini. I didn't know if anyone has used this particular display with the iPad for many?

You can have the GUI ignore the “Are You Sure” dialog when emptying the trash by using cmd-option-shift-delete reducing one step along the way. In my opinion, opening Terminal and using the “rm” command also does not actually make it any faster as the poster is hoping. It would take more keystrokes to change to the Terminal app, enter the “rm” command followed by the file path, than a quick cmd-delete to put the item in the Trash, then a cmd-option-shift-delete to empty it. I recall a thread a number of years back somewhere on the Net where people were discussing the same sort of thing.

Really helped a lot I was thinking of trying to get a full-blown GNOME desktop environment running on this machine, as I am familiar with that environment. Doing some research, I can see that their is an open source version of the Xorg X11 Window system that I can install. Ideally, I would love the greatest and latest stuff viable from the GNOME Project which at present, is Gnome 3.4.X. However, I think we have some problems. If I'm wrong in these assumptions, feel free to correct me where necessary. If memory serves, GNOME 3.x has some dependencies on systems, which is Linux-specific. That is, their is at present, no BSD-compatible system implementation. I don't believe that system needs to be
Braille translation settings on iOS devices?
Hello everyone, This is Chenelle, I wanted to know when you're using a refreshable braille display on I was device such as: iPhone, iPod touch, iPad mini or iPad? Can you download bro translation programs for other languages suchS French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic or Russian? Reason for my asking for this question is because, I am learning Russian and I want to learn Russian braille so I can read or write Russian. There are no resources in the US for which I can access the Russian Cyrillic alphabet. I do not own and A Windows computer. I only have a Mac. Mike took Sperry program with my Romeo embosser will not work with my Mac. Furthermore, the only way I would be able to access materials and Russian Brio is to write to the library for the blind in Moscow Russia. However, I don't know enough Russian in order to write them in their own language. Is there anyone out there thatlives outside of the US that could help me with this problem?

Shawn Krasniuk bbssh...@icloud.com: Oct 16 10:06PM -0500 Hey all. Like I said in my previous message, it took three tries, but Yosemite is finally on my Mac. I was just wondering if Applevis posted the new VO features of Yosemite yet. I know I was a beta tester since July, but to be honest, I didn't notice any new features at all besides the system wide features that Apple talked about. As for beta testing Yosemite, it was quite the experience. I remember with beta 2 I thought my computer would never start up, because it stayed on the Apple screen for God knows how long. Maybe it's because this thing is almost 4 years old, but who knows. Also in one of the betas, I think it was either beta 3 or 4, the software update option in the Apple menu disappeared, and even with the general public release it's not there. And on my end at least, when booting up, I no longer hear the start up chime. I just see the Apple logo. This started in beta 6. But one of the great things about this version, and some of you may notice it as well, you can see a notification that your Mac is being optomized and that it may effect your performance and battery. I think they should've done that before Yosemite, but I digress. Also, on my end at least, they kept the feedback assistant app so if you have any problems, you can report them with that app. All in all, Yosemite is awesome, and it was a pleasure beta testing it all this summer up until now.

I love it. What's all the whinging about? You'd have to go mad at it to bend this. As to the new stuff, well, I'll have to save up for anything new, but I think it likely I'll be staying put regardless. My earnest wish, should I ever have the good fortune to get it, would be a top-spec Mac Pro for all my server and virtualisation duties; then I could give up on hounding the Minis all the time. The iMac--despite the fact that I keep plugging in optical drives, I'll keep my mid 11. iPad--nah, time to step off that bandwagon, I fancy, and not just because the iPhone 6 really is big enough for my needs. The current full-sized iPad Air is just fine, and I don't need anything else. The watch can wait until it's proven. So really, the Mac Mini, if I don't cast it aside and keep saving up for a Pro, which Apple is well within its power to ensure doesn't happen. Much as I love Apple products, I happen to agree with those who worry about the incremental nature of recent announcements. Not sure what the problem is there; perhaps Apple should go back to touting functionality rather than specs, which is always a losing battle for Apple nowadays. And their costs too; something needs to be done about those, or else Apple will end up in the same place with iOS as it is for the Mac ecosystem, which is actually showing some gratifying growth. Now that Windows 9--sorry, 10--is announced, with Windows 7-compatible metaphors, it remains to see whether that trend will continue, or whether it wasn't just the Windows 8 escapists gasping for a quick breath of usability. It'd be the ultimate irony if Micros~1 failed yet again, and Mac gained market share not because of some intrinsic superiority, but simply that the alternative was much worse. :) Jamie Pauls jamiepa...@gmail.com: Oct 08 08:58PM -0500 This pretty much echoes what the panel on MacBreak Weekly said on their latest podcast.

Yes, the bug is present even if the activity does not change the voice in use. No, there is no workaround I know of; keep emailing accessibil...@apple.com and using www.apple.com/feedback. -- Have a great day, Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com Tim Kilburn kilbu...@me.com: Aug 21 11:08AM -0600 Hi, I wonder if this has something to do with announcements. When using the voice Alex, if you switch in or out of the app that you have an Activity applied to, VO announces “VoiceOver Settings Activity along with a view other App notes. If you use a different voice, non-Apple, then this phrase is not announced but silence is not golden. Sometimes, if I press ctrl twice to make VO be quiet, then this announcement/pause is eliminated or decreased.

Third and Tuesday. • close the window. Not sure why it wasn’t working that way for Daniel.

I have the format set to RTF and that triggers Textedit as the default app. I suppose if i set the format to .docx, it would open in pages.

There are some web sites that will display certain extra links if the mouse is placed on the first item of a list. For example, if a site says products, putting the mouse on it may open a list of product categories. Really this is bad web design, the page should not change just because the mouse sits on an item, but, if you change the setting in voiceover so the mouse follows the voiceover cursor, you will gain access to these items. I've made this the default setting and have found links on several sites that were not there before. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Simply going out of the Music app then re-opening it may not be enough as the app is not actually quit in that case.

I was kinda confused with the whole interacting thing with Voiceover, but that I learned that quick. Next thing I knew I was downloading apps on here. I think the first 3 apps I downloaded on here were Skype, Adium, and RS Games. I couldn’t figure out why RS wasn’t working but I found out quickly that I had to put anything with the app extension into the applications folder in order to work because it won’t run from the dog which is a disk image. Now I’m that advanced that I have Windows on this thing, (which I kinda hate doing but have no choice because businesses use Windows and if I could find an app developer that would make QuintinC’s Playroom available for the Mac for free since the owner of it is too cheap to make it himself,) and Mavericks is now the third OS version upgrade I installed myself. So yeah, it’s not too hard to master it. Good luck with your learning experience. Shawn Sent From My White MacBook Unreal VoiceOver very choppy again BBS bbssh...@samobile.net Jan 25 02:12PM -0600 Hi guys. The only times I have issues with Voiceover having stuttery speech in Mavericks is when starting up my Mac after shutting it down, which is rare, and if using Fusion in the background Windows is doing something heavy like an update or being stupid. Other than that, my Mac runs great. Apps launch fast and it’s all good. As for Bryan’s issue with Voiceover skipping when reading emails, have you tried not interacting with the text of the message and letting VO read automatically? This is what I do and it never skips. Oh and I’m using Karen for my Voiceover. Can’t stand Tom because he sounds robotic. At least Karen has a lot of inflection in her voice.

I run a Twitter account called @VOTips, and the timeline of that account has some really useful tips and tricks for iOS and OS10 from a Voiceover perspective. Then you have www.applevis.com, with app reviews, podcasts, forums, blogs, and guides/tutorials on all things Apple. As to Bootcamp, if you're really comfortable in the Mac, I wouldn't. Both Bootcamp and a virtual machine application have their pros and cons, but I made a 200gb Bootcamp partition when I first got my Mac. Now I wish I hadn't, and am about to remove it in favor of a virtual machine. I only did Bootcamp because I was new to the Mac and needed a computer I knew how to use. Since you are already fine with your Mac, you might consider skipping Bootcamp and going straight to a VM. Again, I know both methods are good for different situations, and I encourage you to research them thoroughly before making the choice, but if your Mac can handle it, a VM might be a better solution than taking up a bunch of hard drive space with Bootcamp.

I also want the talking caller ID announce feature that my old home phone currently has, and finally figured I would email the list to see if anyone has a corded/cordless home phone system where you might be able to access all the menus with some kind of VoiceOver similar to the iPhone, not even sure if something like this with all the features I want is even made. I found a corded/cordless phone system with bluetooth and talking caller ID and am posting the link here, but doubt I will be able to access all of the phones features, and just wanted to see if anyone knew of such a thing, if so please share the brand and model with us.

Sent from my iPhone Andrew Lamanche andrew.laman...@gmail.com Dec 16 03:27PM Dear Caitlyn, I’ve just played with the bookmark feature in iText, and I think I have had a positive result. I’ve created a bookmark by hitting command+shift+m. You will be in a dialogue where on the very left you have a table of all the bookmarks you may have created and when you move right, you will find a text field into which some text is automatically entered, i.e. a few words of the line at which your cursor is located. You can change this text and write whatever series of words you wish here, and move to the right to add the bookmark or cancel or delete a bookmark, I assume one of the bookmarks which may already be in your table. In order to jump to any of your bookmarks, I think you have to make them visible first. The shortcut key combination command+option+m on my macbook air, places the bookmarks table next to the toolbar, just to the right of the toolbar. But it is not easy to find them. Now in order to find it, I had to stop interacting with my text by pressing vo+shift+up arrow. Then I jumped to the toolbar on the left and then vo+right arrow once at which point I heard voiceover say “drawer area”. I interacted with the drawer area and I found the table of bookmarks there and the bookmark button which you don’t actually need because it only activates the bookmark menu which you can get to with command+shift+m. Then I interacted with the table of bookmarks, placed my vo cursor on the bookmark I wanted, then routed mouse cursor to the voiceover cursor with vo+command+f5, double-checked with vo+f5 command to make sure the mouse cursor was on the bookmark and then I performed the mouse click with vo+shift+space bar. Then I stopped interacting with the table and the drawer area and moved to the right until I heard scroll area. This is the area where your text document is. Interact with it, and you should be where your bookmark was created. It worked for me. I must thank you for inspiring me to explore this feature. Otherwise I’d never had known that this can be accomplished. Hope it will work for you too, and hope that my explanation has not confused you. Andrew Caitlyn and Maggie caitlyn.furn...@gmail.com Dec 16 01:02PM -0500 andrew! Oh, *thank you* so much! your explaination was perfectly clear and it helps a bunch!

It’s something the Mac puts there for its own reasons I don’t understand. Can’t help you with the pairing issue as I’ve had no trouble pairing my Braille Edge with my iPhone. Sorry… Lisette Eugenia Firth gigifi...@me.com Dec 14 05:24AM -0600 Hi there again I didn't using the spacebar to select files and deleting them all at once. You learn something new everyday, never mind I've had this display for over a year now. I guess that means you can delete those ghost files. I do have some information, however, about pairing problems with the Braille Edge 40. This happened to me, and I have no idea why. I went to the office HIMS office and worked on this with Mike. I guess we spent about two hours on this, and then we ended up calling that wonderful 877 number. My Braille Edgge 40 liked every device, except my 5 s iPhone, so there is probably not something wrong with your Braille Edge, at least mine didn't end up needing repair for the same problem you are having. You won't like to hear this, but I had to erase all my settings on the iPhone. I'm talking about restoring it, so don't do that unless you find you have to. You might go into settings and write down all the ones you can find that you changed from the defaults. Oh, yes, make sure you have written somewhere your Internet passwords. Then set your settings back to factory. You don't have to erase all your data on your iPhone, just your settings. If you're concerned about doing that and losing all your stuff, you might want to call Apple Accessibility at 877-204-3930. If your equipment is too old, like you've had your iPhone for too long, for instance, and Apple charges you the $20, it will be worth it. It costed me a lot more than that to find out what was wrong with my Braille Edge. I made a trip to Austin. I did visit a friend, but I had to pay cab fare etc. to go to the HIMS office. Regards, Gigi Donna Goodin doniado...@me.com Dec 14 07:59AM -0600 Wow, Gigi, that's just crazy! I can't imagine why that happened, my BrailleEdge paired with my 5S right away with no problems at all.

I should have remembered that command because it’s just like on the Braille Sense Plus I used to have.

Desi Desi Noller desi.nol...@gmail.com Dec 14 09:18AM -0700 Hi Gigi, That sounds like a nightmare for sure! I think I’ll wait awhile to do a reset of my phone! I would, of course, love to be able to pair it with my Braille Edge, but it isn’t the highest priority for me, or really even why I got the Braille Edge. I do still have AppleCare on my phone, so could call for help if and when I decide to do it! Thanks again so much for your help! Desi emogees break Voiceover John D.

This problem also occurred in IOS6. When I use the two finger tap to rename an app, for example an app was just called football, and I wanted it called CBS Football, which I typed than hit save and the app name changes to ESPN football and the app is a CBS app, and not ESPN. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it from the app store and it still comes up as ESPN football. So strange as the app has nothing to do with ESPN. I have had this happen elsewhere as I once renamed a yahoo app to yahoo baseball and now my baseball playlist in downcast insists on calling itself yahoo baseball and even deleting the playlist in downcast and creating a new called baseball changes its name to yahoo baseball. So strange and no clue how this is happening. Would love any advice on how to fix this.

I think that's the version I have, but not 100% sure, sense it was given to me as a Christmas gift and I've never seen either of them, but it's a decent size, just slightly smaller than a passport drive, and has a really long battery life, but unfortunately I'm not sure of the exact make and model of it so can't find the specs on it to compare them. I did a search for it and like the fact that it has the fold-out prongs, conpared to the New Trent model, which has a wall charger that you constantly have to keep up with, and unlike the one posted here, doesn't have the voice notifications, so just have to guess if the unit itself is on or off according to the alert sounds your phone makes, and same with whether or not the thing is fully charged, which can be equally frustrating, considering the fact that I have devices that don't make noise when they're first plugged in/unplugged.

I had been renting a wifi router box from my cable provider for a while and then decided to keep the money to myself and buy my own unit. I purposly purchased two separate boxes - the cable modem and the wifi/router. Over the years I've upgraded my wifi a couple times as the world moved through the alphabet of standards and speeds. Most recently I swapped out my old Netgear 802.11G box for an Airport extreme after an unpleasant attempt to use a D-Link DIR-628 802.11N. Just last week my cable mode died after about 9 years of service so I was able to replace that with a newer faster Motorola SurfBoard DOCSIS 3.0 modem. In other words, this might be a good time to replace the all-in-one with separate boxes for long term sanity. As a side note, my first owned modem met an early demise after my (then) girlfriend and I returned from a weekend trip to discover a colony of ants had moved into it. There were ants everywhere moving eggs and such into their new warm comfy wifi hotel. We only noticed because the wifi wasn't working. The whole thing went into a trash bag.

I've set the right option key as capslock, and also, I've set the right windows key(right command) to right control key. I did the control key thing because I noticed in jaws help that the laptop layout sometimes requires control in conjunction with the jaws key, and it was too much of a stretch to use the left control with the right alt (jaws key). So, on the bluetooth keyboard, I've got (left to right) function key control alt left windows key spacebar right control capslock. On the full-size USB keyboard, to the right of the spacebar, it's right windows key, capslock, right control. What are other VMWare users using for screenreader modifier key arrangements? I plan to use both NVDA and JAWS in laptop mode. P.S. I suppose one solution to the whole problem is to just carry around and plug in a full sized Apple USB keyboard, keeping screen readers set to desktop layout, but that sounds a little weird.

Now I not only have an I phone 4. s. But I have a makdck book pro and a time capsule along with an I pad mini and and finally I have a Apple TV.

Is there another way to add music/media onto your i phone without using i tunes?
Hello everyone, I wanted to know if there were another way to import music onto your i phone 5 other than using I Tunes? I have a friend that is a new I phone user and they own a windows computer. They also use jaws but have never used Itunes before. They wanted to transfer their music library to their i phone 5 but without having to use i tunes of course. so is there a way to do this or will they just have to learn how to use itunes? thank you so much for your time and help i mostly greatly appreciate it. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPad -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Sometimes, when I press command-l, instead of being directed to the address bar, I am directed to the downloads folder in Safari. Similarly, when I press M in Safari, it opens Apple Mail even when I am in Safari. This gets automatically fixed when I restart my Mac a couple of times. 2. Sometimes, when I use the keyboard to type something, instead of showing the letters that I type, it shows weird symbols like Ó´. Have I inadvertently enabled or disabled something? I'm completely baffled. Please help.

So, check the physical key on your keyboard and be sure it is working correctly. If it is not a Macbook, you might want to replace the keyboard.

I like the idea if sharing files and etc between windows and mac but I'm a little afraid of not being able to use windows independently, Also excuse me I'm not familiar yet with all the mac terminology, but I think if I get the mac now it would come with mountain lion, but I think I read somewhere that something new is coming out in the fall, should I wait for the fall to get the newest out there or should I stick with the mountain lion and get it now?

I used Bootcamp when I started with the Mac, and installed a boot manager that let me just hit w or m to boot into windows or mac. It was great, since I needed to know not a single mac command to use windows, whereas a virtual machine solution requires you to be able to at least launch it in mac first. That said, I had no official training so had to rely on this list and twitter to learn everything about the mac. Since I still needed to use my computer on a daily basis, and since the mac was my only machine, I felt that being able to use native windows would be the best solution for me, until I was either comfortable with the mac or decided it was not for me and stuck with only windows. Needless to say, I got used to the mac and now hardly ever boot windows, and am looking into replacing my bootcamp setup with a vm solution. If you are close to an Apple Store, you could go in there and get help, especially in the first thirty days while your machine is still under warranty. So, since you have access to help, I think a virtual machine solution is better: no partitioning of the hard drive, not needing to shut

Anyway, I was wanting to know which antivirus program you use? Do you use Avast? I saw that was recommended in a magazine I saw for getting started with the mac. I'd like to be protected before I start downloading things from the net, like Skype. I'm slowly getting there. Last week I think I was nearly successful at downloading silverlight to fill out some forms for my doctor, I was able to click on the download now icon, but I don't know what to do next. I somehow found that I'd tried to download it 3 times, but since there was a cancel option I did that and just had them help me when I got to the doctor's. So, that leads me to my next question, when downloading something from the net, how do we access it? I think silverlight is some sort of plug in and not something that I'm likely to need again but I know I want skype and some antivirus. so, I've guessed that there is a different process from downloading things from the App Store as I did the type2phone successfully and going through Safari to download things.

Maurice Mines maurice.mi...@gmail.com Apr 09 02:14PM -0700 Good afternoon, I have an interesting accessibility problem. I have a document that reads very well in TextEdit. But the document that I am being easily on a computer, has to be converted into an audio form format? So my question to the group is what he is the best way to achieve that? I have two audio production software packages,The first one, is Amadeus Pro and the second is audio hijack Pro. So other any good suggestions for making a document that reads very well in TextEdit, into an audio form that a senior could listen to this document on the end in a less player.? I certainly intend to distribute the document to computer users in its current Microsoft word format. But I know this lead to, or three seniors who don't know how to use a computer, and don't want to learn how to use a computer will definitely feel left out of this information. Certainly feel free to suggest possible solutions to this problem. Sincerely Maurice. PS, please note that I'm using Dragon dictate for the Mac to dictate the text of this email. So it if it doesn't make sense completely to you please email me privately and let me know? erik burggraaf e...@erik-burggraaf.com Apr 09 05:23PM -0400 Why don't you just highlight all the text, press control option shift M, and choose add to ITunes as a spoken track? Then you can just burn the resultant audio to a CD.

If so then you can use terminal to generate an AIFF file of the audio. So if I save the document as important_stuff.txt then in terminal I would do say important_stuff.txt -o important_stuff.aiff and you should end up with an aiff file which you can then convert to mp3 or whatever. Speech rates are default for your system but if you check the email archive I previously note how you can embed directives in the text to change those setting on the fly.

I think you will fine that the only accessibility issues you have will be with specific applications. About the only area where there seems to be a consensus is in office productivity. Microsoft office and windows screen readers continue to have a definite edge there. I am hopeful that this will not always be the case. VoiceOver is quite powerful as a screen reader and serves its operating system quite adequately, in my opinion. Sent from my iPhone Eugenia Firth gigifi...@me.com Apr 07 04:12PM -0500 Hi Shannon and Kelly In my opinion, voiceover is a serious screen reader which is a serious contender with window was in Jaws. Having said that, I think that it's not voiceover that's limited, it's the applications which your work with it or don't, depending on whether of the developer Roos contacted Apple for the information they needed to make it work. This also assumes that they thought of us in the first place. There are some blind people these days that have really no useful windows and Leslie want it. iPhone one could do without it forever.

I must receive the payment in full all at once, and only will ship to the states, sorry Canadian residents. The $200 does include shipping. If you are an IPhone Newby, I even can have it set when you get it for Voiceover already to be enabled, although it's easy enough to do yourself.

Whereas, unlocking a device will allow you to utilize of that device that was designed for a specific carrier, on another carrier's network.

I never heard anything as I did express my disappointment with how poor an apple product like numbers worked with VO. I finally heard back from Apple and they said Numbers hasn't been updated in several years to reflect the changes in operating systems, and they currently can't say when numbers will be updated. Very frustrating and disappointing. I think Apple should place a disclaimer on the product, as it is very misleading. I work with large spreadsheets, so would love to hear about some alternative options since I feel both numbers and excel are pretty non accessible.

i pad mini question:
Hello all, it's been a while since i posted a question on here. i just purchased an i pad mini 32 gig with wifi only!. i wanted to know if anyone has played around with the latest i pad or not? i also changed my phone plan so i could use my i phone 4.s. as a hot spot for my i pad mini. i wanted to know if anyone has used this method instead of purchasing the i pad or i pad mini with wifi and cellular together?. I am now someon ethat has everything that is mack related. I have a i phone 4.s, a mack book pro, an Apple TV, an time capsule and a i pad mini. I don't think that i would need anything else after this purchase. I also have a braille pen 12 display to go with my i pad and i phone 4.s. i also purchased the i pad mini due to the fact that at my job i only have a certain amount of space to work in thus having the i pad mini it does not take up very much space instead of the original i pad. i can just toss it into my purse with my braille display and portabe magnifier and go. i was just wondering if anyone had anything positive or negative to say about it? any fed back would be helpful. i should get it by no later then december,3/12. tahnks so much for your help i most greatly appreciate it. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

I've only read detailed discussions about Bento on the mac-access list, so you could try doing a Mail Archive search for that list's archived content if you want to read more about this, or else joint that list. A lot of these issues seem to be specific to running this software under Mountain Lion, and this may be true of the recent App Store reviews (by non-VoiceOver users), too. Some users only reported encountering problems after updating -- they had no problems running the very same version of the software before updating to Mountain Lion, and were also pleased by the ability to sync information using the Bento iOS apps. Just something to keep in mind when you perform your evaluations. Since you're running Mountain Lion you'll want to know abut the specific performance under this OS. Also, improvements in behavior may only come with more ML specific experience on the part of developers. HTH.

embosser question:
to the website, was so happy as everything in Mountain Lion had been working great, as I had set the sweet spot to go straight to update status field, and then today, I go there and there is now a combo box that is in the update status text field. I VO shift Down in to the Combo Box tried typing and nothing, tried moving around and nothing. I said ok let me go to Menu Tab and just update my status there, and guess what same thing, the update status text field now has a combo box there. Has anyone else had this happen today? If so, any work around? The people who run the mobile site on their desktop are you having the same problem? I am a non-violent person, but if I ever meet anyone who works for Facebook, I am going to punch them in the face. They could be the worst company out there along with ESPN who have made no effort to make their site better compatabile with screen readers. Mountain Lion User Administration Steve Holmes steve.holme...@gmail.com Aug 22 09:35AM -0700 You might try some command line tools from the terminal with an admin equipped user. Example: type 'passwd USER' where USER is the ID you're trying to fix. You should be prompted for a new user. Try entering a new password and see if it takes OK. You won't get any messages if successful. Then from a non-admin user, try something like su - USER With this, you should receive a password prompt and if you enter correctly and if the password is good, you should be logged into a command shell for that user. All this effort will be helpful in debugging and determining if the account is good or not. Forgive me, but I'm a linux geek and all this unix stuff comes in handy to trouble shoot system problems like this. You can also work with file permissions and bulk file manipulations too.

mountain lion issues:
Hi all, I just installed mountain lion earlier this morning at around 4:30 am. I t took me about 2/2 hours from downloading until m.l. had downloaded and installed onto my mackbook pro. however, my question is, after downloading m.l. onto the mack? Where do you go to set up your twitter account? or do you just have to download it to your mack in order to set up the short cut keystroke commands? i have not tried going into the the system preferences application and then into the dictation application to set up my dictation v.o. ket stroke commands. I also purchased the flexy application for my i phone earlier this morning as well and that works terrifically. thanks so much for your help i most greatly appreciate it. sincerely chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Chris Blouch cblo...@aol.com May 14 05:29PM -0400 You mean actually picking up and tuning in shortwave radio on your phone? I suspect that isn't possible because the antennas in your phone are designed for the wifi and GSM frequency ranges, not shortwave. Also, other than some really high-end digital tuners, most shortwave gear is set up to 'tune' a particular subset of the shortwave radio frequency range with a physical variable capacitor while the wifi and mobile voice/data radio stuff is set to fixed frequencies. If they can't bake in an FM tuner, I doubt they could do the more niche shortwave. Maybe there is a re-broadcaster that streams something but other than the current time and a few other common frequencies part of the fun of shortwave was to see what you could pick up on a bounce from around the world. The internet kind of took away the novelty of that phenomenon.

re:question:
hello everyone, i was reading the mack's list questions and answers the other day and someone had a plight about when they closed their computer down. that they had to go into systems preferences and the go into the general application etc to shut windows down. then when she would go into shutting it down for the night etc. it would ask her if she wanted to log into windows when loging back onto the ones computer etc. well i called apple yesterday and they went through a systems preferences to see if i was having the same plight or not. i went ahead and ran a scan of my computer to see if there were any bugs or viruses on it and i did not find anything wrong with my computer. to make a long story short. apple explained to me that the reason for the mack asking you if you want to login to your windows again or not is due to the fact that when you go into a program like pages or numbers or safari the same window will appear automatially thus if you uncheck the box on the screen that has this question up and running etc. then these windows will not appear on your particular application etc... i hope this makes some sense to you!. but it is okay for you to run a scan of your computer to see if you have a virus or not if everything checks out ok then your good. but you might want to call apple if you have this plight again. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPhone On Apr 8, 2012, at 4:28 PM, macvisionaries@googlegroups.com wrote: Today's Topic Summary Group: http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries/topics Itines downloaded album and can't find it [7 Updates] disregard previous question about folders [1 Update] Adding contacts to my mail program [2 Updates] off topic!

If you can find the move button, you can just flick right from it to reach the delete button on the iPad. Alternatively, if you can find the compose button at the top right corner of your screen, you can flick left twice to reach the delete button. The four buttons for move, delete, reply, and compose pertaining to individual mail messages, that you would find along the bottom of your iPhone screen, are located at the top right of your iPad screen, at the same vertical position as the Inbox and Mailboxes headings. You'll find the compose button if you touch the battery status icon at the top right corner of the active iPad region, and move your finger down slightly. One way to reach the delete button on the iPad, regardless of whether you are using landscape or portrait mode, is to use the new item chooser gesture introduced under iOS 5. Do a three finger double tap to bring up item chooser menu. Although item chooser is designed to let you enter search strings by typing into a text field, you don't need to type anything. Instead, just flick right until you reach Delete and double tap. That will move your focus to Delete button for your currently viewed message. Since item chooser lists items in alphabetical order, you may have to flick right 5 or more times to get to the entry for Delete and double tap. And remember, using item chooser this way only moves your focus to the item you've selected; you still need to execute another double tap to activate the Delete button. The way I'm used to deleting individual messages on the iPad is by touching the Compose button in the top right corner (in either landscape or portrait orientation), and flicking left twice to the Delete button, then double tapping. You do need to learn the boundaries of the active iPad screen region, just as with the iPhone, and a case can help you learn these. If you're using the new smart covers, and your iPad is held in landscape mode, with the home button to the left, you can touch the left or right hinges of the cover at the top of your screen, and feel for the raised bar in the center of the metal hinge. If I move my finger vertically down from the left hinge, with an iPad in landscape mode, I'll first hear ATT network, status bar item, double tap to scroll to top, and then Inbox number of messages, back button in mail. Moving down vertically from the right hinge in landscape mode for mail, I'll first hear 80 per cent battery power, status bar item, double tap to scroll to top. Moving further down, I'll hear Compose button. If you don't use a case or smart cover, you can mark the boundaries of the active screen region by using elastic bands around your iPad to mark the active boundaries at the top, bottom, and sides, while you learn their positions. If that's too awkward or sounds too dorky, you can use some of those not-too-sticky Post-It page markers, or low-stick brands of tape that are used to temporarily position items, and use them to mark off the corners of the active region. These won't damage the surface of the iPad, but will provide temporary tactile indicators of the edge of the active region. To delete multiple messages from a mailbox, start at the button in the top left corner of the screen. This is also the first element, so you can use a four finger tap in the top half of the screen to navigate there. In landscape mode, this will probably be read as Inbox number of messages, back button or Mailboxes, back button. Flick right twice, to the heading and then to the Edit button and double tap. The Edit button will turn into a Cancel button. Now flick right to the individual messages and double tap to mark or unmark your selections. The Delete button for your selected messages is in the bottom left corner of the iPad. Here are two ways you can find it, if you're not used to the iPad active screen boundaries: 1) Do a four-finger tap on the bottom half of the screen to move to the last element, which will be

Jürgen Fleger apple-engl...@fleger.net Mar 16 01:34PM +0100 Hi, the accessibility team says it's a bug between VoiceOver and iOS that it doesn't work reliably using a swipe to the right as you described. They try to fix it. I found two ways to do it anyway: 1. Switch off VoiceOver and put your finger on the right place for ruffly one second. Then move the finger to the right. Then you can switch on VoiceOver again and click on the confirm delete button. 2. You are presumably a user of iTunes Match. Switch off iTunes Match on your iPhone and delete content manually via iTunes. Afterwards you can switch iTunes Match on again.

Esther mori...@mac.com Mar 15 10:08AM -1000 Hi Vivianna, Alex, Ricardo, Chris, Jane, Garth, Gigi, Emrah, Kawal, and Marc, First off, there is a Find My Mac program that is like Find My iPhone for iOS devices. You can register your machine for it if you are running Lion, and also have enabled iCloud services. Since I've only migrated to Lion about a month ago, and still need to keep my MobileMe services active for a while more, I can't speak directly about this program. However, I can run Find My iPhone even from the MobileMe pages with VoiceOver. It's not as simple as it was with VoiceOver and Safari not upgraded under Snow Leopard, but it's workable for me, so I assume this is also possible for Find My Mac. (The truly bizarre aspect of this is how much easier it was to use Find My iPhone with VoiceOver on version of Leopard -- two versions back -- on a system with OS X 10.5.8 and the latest version of Safari at that time. I switched to one of these machines just to contrast the Find My iPhone web experience with VoiceOver, latest Safari, and Lion.) Here's a link to an old New York Times article about Find My Mac from last November: http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/25/using-apples-find-my-mac-feature/ Use Command-Shift-R to read this in Safari Reader. Secondly, I highly recommend that everyone register their Apple products using the MySupportProfile page: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do This is a personal service that has been around for at least 8 years, and is designed as a way for customers to keep track of their Apple products. It's not the same as warranty registration, although I think you can register products through the MySupportProfile page. This is meant to be a convenient record for you, the customer, so you can input this information at any time. Although it's obviously easiest to put in this information soon after purchase. You log in with your Apple ID and enter the serial numbers for products you own. Once this is in place, you have a permanent record of your serial numbers and product descriptions all in one place. Items can include your Mac computers, iPhones, Apple TVs, AIrport Express units, Time Capsules, etc. What makes this page useful, in addition to keeping a record of your serial numbers, is that there are related support resources. So you can read about the technical specifications for your model of device, find out whether there are firmware updates, find related articles, and also track service case issues. If you give your Mac or iOS device to a relative, or sell it, you can remove the item from the devices that are registered to you, but you can also provide them with details about the exact product they are getting from you. And, if worst comes to worst, and one of your items is misplaced or stolen, you have an accurate record of the serial number and the detailed product description. Understand that the MySupportProfile page is not meant to be a way to make Apple track lost or stolen items. It's a convenient resource for you, the user. The only information that gets added to the pages are for devices whose serial numbers you add. You can find these in your purchase receipts from Apple, or by using the About this Mac entry of the Apple menu. (VO-M or Control-F2 to the Apple menu, arrow down to About this Mac, and Navigate with VO-Right arrow to the Version number (e.g. 10.7.3), then VO-Space to cycle through the build to the serial number. You can copy the last phrase to the clipboard with VO-Shift-C, then paste in information anywhere with Command-V.) For those of you using QuickNav, just press Right arrow instead of VO-Right arrow, and select by simultaneously pressing Up and Down arrow keys instead of using VO-Space. And for those of you using TrackPad Commander, use a two-finger double tap near the top of your TrackPad to move to the Apple menu on the menu bar, flick down into to the submenu, then flick down again to About this Mac and double tap.

i infer that it might be located on the top right side of your windows computer. however, to remedy your particular plight i would just go and purchase a mac keyboard that is wireless for 69 dollars then you would be able to have full access to your computer and all of its particular functions. i hope this helps matthew. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

hhello all, i just recently received my brand new time capsule device earlier this morning. it was not that difficult to set up after contacting the apple store online and having them walk me through the process. now i am currently backing up my files onto my time capsule. however, i do not know if any of you have ever ran into this problem before. I currently live in the basement of my grandparents house thus the internet signal isn't that strong down here etc... so i had my counsilor purchase me an time capsule infering that my signal strength would be increased due to the time capsule having an router attached to the exturnal hard drive. well while setting it up with apple inc earlier this morning they informed me that i would have to purchase an airport express in order for the signal strength to increase at a faster tae then what it is right now. so i wanted to know if i would have to buy the airport express at the end of the omnth just to increase the signal strength in my room so my internet could go faster?. or is there another way to go about increasing it without buying an airport express? thank you so much for your time i really appreciate it. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPhone On Mar 9, 2012, at 1:44 PM, macvisionaries@googlegroups.com wrote: Today's Topic Summary Group: http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries/topics Google eBooks [1 Update] ITunes crashing all the time now [7 Updates] Messages beta question [3 Updates] pairing the Alva BC640 feature pack with a Mac?

I upgraded to iTunes 10.6 and I am not experiencing any problems at all. So, I doubt Apple did anything. I suspect there is another issue specific to you.

I did not add anything to my library yet The only trouble I find with iTunes, is while exploring the device. I mean: I go to the second bar, where to interact to find used and available space I do not know the english term. but it's after the radio buttons telling info, summary, apps, ringtones, music... it's the object containt the sync and apply button, when managing ringtones or apps or music or other files syncing. Once, it said, for example: capacity: 28.7 in GB audio: 2.5 gb apps: 7.5 gb and so on. Now, it says: 28.5 gb. 2.5 gb. 7.5 gb... without telling you what the number corresponds to! I already sent an e-mail to accessibility team explaining the issue. I talked to a friend using Mountain Lion's preview version and he does not notice crashes on iTunes but has the same problem as mine. I am talking, of course, about iTunes for mac; i have not tested windows version yet. matthew Dyer ilovecountrymusic...@gmail.com Mar 09 10:45AM -0500 Ray, I am having no problem with itunes 5.6. Infact the problems with tracks skippping has now been fixed. Not sure what you may be having. Have you tried reparing permisions?

I'm still on SL, and I'm not experiencing any problems as you described in the new ITunes. In fact, if anything, I'd say it is snappier.

re: apple tv question:
hi all, i just only purchased an apple tv about three months ago. furthermore, i did not have any problems with setting it up. i i have an h.d.l.c..d tv thus all i had to do is to get another h.d.m.i. caple and connect it to the back of the apple tv and then hook the other piece to the back of the tv. then i pressed the lower right button on the small slender remote control that comes with the apple tv three times in order to turn on voice over. afterwards, i had my aunt put in the internet code and password in order to hook up to netflix and the internet etc.. afterwards, it was a total breeze for me to work. i have never regretted purchasing the apple tv at all either. i had purchased movies, and tv shows from just using my apple tv and i really do enjoy it better then watching cable for the most part. the only piece of apple equipment that i do not have in my hands is an i-pad 3 and that does not come out until march,7/12. but i will wait to get it until later on in the summer etc.. take care everyone sincerely, chenelle.

transfering n.l.s. books to the mac:
hi everyone, i wanted to reply to the individuals for who wanted to transfer n.l.s. books from their s.d. cards onto their mac's. could you just go to the app store and download i-book application onto your mac and then just get your books from there or even use blio! as a back up. would that be easier for you to use. or is it just that you enjoy using the n.l.s. format?. as for me! i just use the i-book application on my i-phone 4.s. or blio to read my books. it takes not as much time to download then to transfer the book from you s.d. card onto the mac. That's just for me! and what i prefer. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

re: what keyboard or i-phone case do you use?
hi everyone, i have used for the past 2 and a half years an apple wireless keyboard with my i[phone 3.g.s. and my new i-phone 4.s. which i truly do love at the moment etc. i also have a case with it and it is a hard cover case. i also have a wallet size case that has a clip on it so i can clip it onto my my pants if i want to etc... you just place it into the case and close the like like a wallet and that's it!. i used it for my 3.g.s. so i then continued to use it for my 4.s. as well saying that i paid about 32 dollars for it at the time that i purchased my 3.g.s. over three years ago. i enjoy my wireless keyboard a great deal i just place it into my over size purse and go. i can take it out and use it along with my i-phone 4.s. and i do not have to bring my mb pro with me. because everything is there inside of my i-phone 4.s. it takes up less space and it is incredably lighter to carry around so that is why i like it. i cannot wait to get me an i-pad when the new i-pad 3 comes out later this year. sincerely, chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
