VS Code

2023-09-19 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

Does anybody out here have a tutorial on using VS Code with Voiceover?

I’ve been Googling, but haven’t been able to find one.

I’m looking to move to VS Code from Textedit, but finding myself stuck in all 
kinds of ways.

Thx,
Jeff

Re: Facebook Mobile Site (Again)

2023-08-16 Thread Jeff Berwick
I also noticed this a while ago and, like you, it did come back for a while.  I 
wrote an angry email to Facebook about it just before it came back.  I thought 
that had some impact, but perhaps it didn’t ;)

I originally thought it was just me, but it seems like this is more widespread 
and may be rolled out across the whole user base at some point.

I’ve switched over to just using the Facebook mobile app on my iPhone which 
seems accessible.

Hth,
Jeff

Re: Smart light bulbs?

2023-01-28 Thread Jeff Berwick
Phillips Hue are the best and I have several of them.  Recently, over 
Christmas, I switched a lot of my smart lighting to in-wall switches.  I went 
with the Lutron Diva, which is part of the Caseta line.

If you go with in-wall, you will need to install them.  The nice thing about 
the in-wall switch is that you have control over your lighting with automation, 
and the luddite  in your family can still use a rocker switch to turn lights on 
and off. ;)

Shark Clean iOS App

2022-08-26 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

I have a Shark robot vacuum which, until the latest version of the iOS app, I 
have been able to work independently.  I do have some grumbles about the 
product—I have to set the power level every single time, but that is something 
I have taken up with their customer support team.

The latest version of the app is completely inaccessible.  I am able to start 
the vacuum, but I’m not able to access the menu system or change the power 
level of the suction.

Does anybody else use the Shark robot vacuum and can confirm this?

I’m currently in a battle with their support team, but I’m struggling with even 
being able to get them to understand the basic principle of accessibility.

They are headquartered in the States, so I expect they have to be compliant 
with Section 508, but, as I am a Canadian, I’m not sure I can wield that power. 
;)

Thx,
Jeff

Re: YouTube audio grabber

2022-07-04 Thread Jeff Berwick
There is an app called Youtube-dl.  You can install this through Home-brew in 
the Terminal.  It is pretty easy to use, but it is a command line tool, so you 
will need to be comfortable with Terminal.

Re: basic finder question

2022-06-26 Thread Jeff Berwick
When you are in the Finder and the folder you want, you can copy the file with 
[command] + [c].

Then, move to the folder you want to put the file in and issue the following 
command:

[command] + [option] + [v]

This moves the file from he first location to the second.

Re: Something very interesting I just learned about menus and VoiceOver

2022-04-04 Thread Jeff Berwick
When programming, coders usually have access to the accessible text for the 
menu items.  At least, when I programmed in DotNet for Windows they did.  I 
expect it is the same or similar on Mac.  

So, you would put in the text that you wish to show, select the different key 
combinations for any shortcuts and then set your accessible text to provide 
clues to the user.

Re: Monterey Loses Voiceover?

2021-10-31 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi there,

Since Big Sur, on an Apple M1 chip computer, I have had Voiceover crash all the 
time.  I have gone into Voiceover preferences and reset all Voiceover 
preferences and it has solved that issue.

A new issue, in Monterey is that, when your computer goes to sleep and requires 
a password, Voiceover doesn’t always come on and it doesn’t always play the 
clicks to indicate that you are typing in your password.

Try entering your password and hitting enter and see what results you get.

Hth,
Jeff

Re: Anyone else having trouble dictating messages on their watch since WatchOs 8?

2021-10-16 Thread Jeff Berwick
It is true that it is much less convenient to dictate under Watch OS8.

What I do, once I am done dictating, is one finger double tap, swipe once to 
the right and one finger double tap again.  Not sure what I’m tapping on, but 
that stops dictation and then I can swipe left until I get back to the text 
field so I can review what I have dictated.

Sometimes, when I one finger double tap, the message just sends automatically.  
Not sure why as VoiceOver is pretty quiet at that time.

The nice thing about this annoyance is that you can then add emogees to your 
message, if desired.

Hth,
Jeff

I have a large spreadsheet with several sheets and I need to reorganize them 
as, when I create new sheets, it randomly places them somewhere in the middle 
of the list.

Thx,

Re: strange folder in my mac

The “Sites” folder is a special folder that is used if you are using your Mac

You can just ignore it.

Not sure if there is a way to delete it.

Re: mac os big sur: the voice over that stops anouncing every other time issue

2021-06-23 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi Yuma,

I had/have a similar issue.  I discussed this with the accessibility team a 
month or more ago and submitted all kinds of data from my machine.  They said 
that what I submitted was useful and they were working on a fix.  This was a 
couple of updates ago, but nothing has been fixed yet.

In my case, it isn’t system announcements, rather it is just navigating around 
with Voiceover.  It happens to me, on average, every five - ten minutes when 
I’m really working at my computer.

I don’t know if this is because we are power users and are frequently jumping 
from Safari, to Textedit, to terminal and back again.

This only happens on my M1 machine running Big Sur.

So, I feel your pain but don’t have a solution for you yet—other than the 
turning Voiceover off and on hack.

Jeff

Re: Would love to hear from anyone who owns an M1 MBA

2021-05-06 Thread Jeff Berwick
I have one and experience an intermittent issue with Voiceover speech stoping.

I have worked with the apple accessibility team and they have indicated that 
they know what the issue is and it will be fixed in an upcoming update.  

It wasn’t fixed in the most recent update, so hopefully the next one is the 
charm.

Other than that, it works like a charm.

Re: Smart locks that work with HomeKit?

2021-04-29 Thread Jeff Berwick
I have never had an issue with the August app and it walks you through the 
process.

I din’t know about a proximity detector, so maybe my model is too old for the 
new fancy stuff.

All I had to do during the process—if I remember correctly—is lock/unlock and 
open/close the door.  

The apps wizard walked me through the whole process.  Sometimes it failed, but 
then I’d go through it a second time and it would be fine.

It has been several years, so I appologise if I’m forgetting anything.

Re: Smart locks that work with HomeKit?

2021-04-26 Thread Jeff Berwick
When I read the subject, I was prepared to recommend the August Smart Lock.  I 
have this and have never had any issues with it.

I was a bit confused by the installation process, but once I had it installed 
it made sense to me.  It was pretty easy.

My August lock is probably three or four years old, so perhaps they have 
changed the hardware/software?

I know they have a new smaller version—which I am looking forward to getting at 
some point to replace my older larger model.

Re: mac os big sur: voice over still bugging out on every second announcement

2021-04-06 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi there,

I have recently had a similar issue—I have had to restart Voiceover every 5 - 
10 minutes as it stops announcing whatever I navigate to.

I had a session with their accessibility team and have submitted data from my 
computer which, as they tell me, has been very helpful in identifying the 
issue.  I am apparently not alone with this issue.

They are working on a fix to be released in an upcoming release—although they 
couldn’t give me an estimation.

Perhaps your issue will be resolved by the same code.

You may wish to reach out to accessibility and have them view your issue.  For 
me, we did a screen recording and then sent log files so they knew exactly what 
was going on.

Hth,
Jeff

Re: Microsoft Teams On iPhone And Accessibility

2021-03-29 Thread Jeff Berwick
I use Teams on my iPhone everyday and it is very accessible.

To get into a meeting, make sure that you are on the calendar tab—second from 
the right at the bottom.

Then, find the meeting and the button right after the name of the meeting is 
labelled “Join.”

Once you are in the meeting, you can click to join now and you are in.

Look around the screen and decide whether to turn your video and mic on or off.

Re: Voiceover Constant Crashing

2021-03-21 Thread Jeff Berwick
It really Varys.

Most recently it has been crashing when I am trying to read through Safari 
pages with Voiceover and, as I am a coder, when I am switching back and forth 
between Textedit and Terminal as I write my code and test it.

It seems like it can happen at any time and in any app when I’m doing anything. 
 It is very non-specific, which is why I’d like to reinstall the Voiceover 
binary, but I’m not sure that it can be separated out from the OS.

I am loathed to do a fresh install as it entails a lot of configuring and 
installing of programs to get things working the way I need.

2021-03-21 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi listers,

I got a new MacBook Pro M1 a few weeks ago and my Voiceover is constantly 
crashing.

I usually have to restart every five - ten minutes.

Has anybody experienced this and, if so, what was the fix?

Thx,
Jeff

Re: voice over not on at start up

2021-03-11 Thread Jeff Berwick
Go to system preferences and choose users and groups.

Then, select the login options group and accessibility options.  You will 
probably need to unlock this screen.

There is a checkbox to have Voiceover on at start up.

Re: How to read .php files.

2021-03-09 Thread Jeff Berwick
I use Textedit for editing my PHP files all the time.  They are just text 
files, so they shouldn’t. Be showing HTML code.

Perhaps you can adjust your preferences in Textedit.

I would focus on the Display HTML files as HTML code instead of formatted text 
checked checkbox and turn off the magic quotes and whatnot to ensure that 
everything saves nicely.  I also turn off spellcheck as it is a pain when 
writing code.

Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard with Touch ID

2021-02-22 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi All,

I’ve been Google searching, but I’m not getting a narrow list of keyboards to 
review—perhaps what I’m looking for doesn’t exist.

I want a bluetooth keyboard that I can use with multiple devices, but that also 
has a Touch ID or finger print sensor.  I have the Logetec K760 which I love, 
but I would like it to have a Touch ID sensor so I don’t have to go to my 
computer.

Does such an animal exist?  Does anybody have one and have any comments?

Thx,
Jeff

Re: Strange new behavior when using Siri to play music from my homepod

2021-01-14 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi Donna,

I had noticed the media controls showing up on my iPhone, and I have also 
noticed a fast drain on my iPhone battery in recent days.  I didn’t, unlike 
you, connect the two.  

Now that you made me aware, I’m also not happy with this adjustment/bug or 
whatever it is.

Re: Transfering music from iPhone to Mac laptop

2020-12-12 Thread Jeff Berwick
If you go to your Home folder on your Mac, there is a folder called “Music.”  
Inside that folder, is another folder called “music” and inside that is one 
called “Media.”  Inside the media folder is one called “Automatically add to 
Music.”

Anything you put in the “Automatically add to Music” folder will be imported 
into your library the next time you open music.

Hth,

Mac Mail on Big Sur

2020-11-28 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

So I had to upgrade to Big Sur to try to solve an issue I was having with Xcode 
and my iPhone (it didn’t help).

At any rate, I am now hearing too much informationabout the table in mail.  
Every time I curser down to a new message, Voiceover announces “Column 1” prior 
to reading the sender.

I can stop this behaviour by setting the verbosity to low, but I’m wondering if 
there is a way to set this verbosity on a per app bases?

I’ve googled this, but haven’t found anything.

Thanks for any help.
Jeff

App Connect/Itunes Connect

2020-10-02 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

Looking for any other iOS developers out there.

I have just gone into iTunes Connect to upload a new version of my app and it 
is completely inaccessible using Voiceover.  My sighted son can get me to my 
app page, but that is as far as we go.

Hoping there are other developers who may have discovered a work around.

I have sent Apple an email, but not sure when they’ll get back to me.

Thx,
Jeff

Screen Recording with Voiceover

2020-09-21 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

I used to be able to use screen recording on my iPad to make demonstration 
videos of my mobile app.   This was great as I could use Voiceover and navigate 
the app, but Voiceover did not get captured on the video.  Something has 
changed (I’m using iOS 13 on this iPad) and now Voiceover is being captured 
within the recording.

Does anybody know a way around this—other than getting my kids to work the app 
while I narrate it.

Thx,
Jeff

Re: Microsoft Teams

2020-06-19 Thread Jeff Berwick
I have been using Microsoft Teams with my iPhone for several months now and 
find it to be quite accessible.  I don’t like the chat feature as there are a 
lot of extra items I don’t need, but the calling feature is quite straight 
forward.

The Windows desktop version is a tougher beast to tame, so I avoid it wherever 
possible.

Re: Apple e Watch Phone Volume

2020-06-14 Thread Jeff Berwick
The gesture for changing volume is to double tap with two fingers and then 
slide up or down on the watch face.  Voiceover will announce the volume as you 
slide.

I don’t know if this will change the SIRI volume as I have also noticed that 
the watch volume and SIRI volume can often be out of sync.

Sometimes this gesture does not work for me, but a restart of the watch usually 
fixes that.  Not sure what happens to block this gesture from working.

Hth,
Jeff

Re: Emails not sinking between devices

Occasionally, I find that messages don’t download to my Mac.  I close Mac Mail 
and then open it again and the messages show up.

Re: Bring back your Mac's startup chime with this simple terminal command, 9 to 5 Mac

Yes, it works o my 2019 MacBook Pro; however, the volume is very low.  I’ll 
have to figure out how to control that volume setting, unless anybody else 
knows off the top of their head.

Download PDF in Safari instead of Opening

2019-11-16 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

Trying to get my new Mac back to how my old Mac works, but can’t crack this nut.

I’ve been all over the internet, but the suggestions are not working for me.

I want PDF documents to download automatically instead of opening inside Safari.

I’ve unchecked the open safe files after downloading checkbox in general 
preferences and even run the following Terminal command:

defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool YES

I’ve restarted to see if that might help, but nothing.

Any other suggestions?

Thx

Bootable Catalina Installer

2019-11-14 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

I have been having issues with Voiceover on my new MacBook Pro, so the advice 
is to do a clean install.  Not a big deal as it is already pretty clean.

At any rate, I have created a bootable Catalina installer as per the 
instructions on the internet, but it does not show up under System Preferences 
> Start Up Disks.

Any thoughts on what I can do to get it to show up?

Tia,
Jeff

Re: Voiceover on startup

2019-10-09 Thread Jeff Berwick
If you have an older Mac, just type in the username and hit return.  Then, type 
in the password and hit return.  The Mac should load up at that point.

On my machine, I get a single beep before the username, a double beep after 
entering the username and three beeps upon successful entering of the password.

Re: Voiceover and WatchOS 6

2019-10-02 Thread Jeff Berwick
You are correct.  I had my language set to Canadian English which gave me the 
British voice.  So, I’ve had to change to American English and that has given 
me female SIRI or some American female voice.

Thanks for that!

Okay, I figured it out.  If you go into System Preferences and choose software

Activating the button will show you a list of the proposed updates and they

Mac Updates

2019-09-26 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

I have just been prompted to update my Mac with a supplemental Mojave update.  
I usually install these right away, but there is also a Safari update (13) 
which I do not want to install as they have deprecated WebSQL and I need it for 
testing and building apps—for the moment anyway.

So, does anybody know if I can safely install the MacOS update while not 
updating Safari?  If so, what is the process?

Thx,
Jeff

Re: Delayed warning

2019-07-22 Thread Jeff Berwick
Okay, I may have found it.

Go into System Preferences and choose Accessibility.

Select the “Speech” option and then click the “Options” button after the 
“Enable Notifications” checkbox which is probably checked.

Once in there, you can set the delay.  Mine was set to 20 seconds and the 
lowest setting seems to be three.

Re: Delayed warning

2019-07-22 Thread Jeff Berwick
I recently got a new Macbook Pro and am in the process of setting it up. 

I also experience this delay.  I think it has something to do with 
notifications, but I haven’t looked into it yet.

Did you recently get a new computer or do an update?

Re: Apple Watch Volume Gesture

No, I didn’t try restarting the watch, but I did try restarting Voiceover.  I 
never think about turning this thing off.

Well, I will have to add that into my thinking as it worked.

Thank you for the suggestion!

Apple Watch Volume Gesture

2019-03-29 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

I have, for the second time, done something to my Apple Watch series 3 which 
prevents me from using the two-finger double tap and slide to adjust volume.

Can anybody offer a suggestion, other than the nuclear one of resetting (used 
last time), to get this gesture working again?

I wish I could say exactly what I have done to lose this gesture, but I am 
unsure.

Thx,
Jeff

Re: selecting text on a Mac

2019-01-15 Thread Jeff Berwick
If you hit enter on the file name you will go into edit mode for that item.  
You can then use the typical editing commands to select text.

Be careful not to change the text while selecting it or it will change the 
filename.

When you have selected all your text and copied it to the clipboard, hit escape 
to close the edit field and then you can move on to the next item in the list.

Re: what devices/appliances are people using with Apple Homekit?

2018-11-26 Thread Jeff Berwick
No, not at all.

I thought it might be hard to install, when I looked in the box, but it was 
actually really simple.  I had the help of my 14 year old and we installed it 
ourselves.  Basically, you take the thumb knob  off the inside of the door and 
then attached the August lock.  The app walks you through the setup process.

There is a bridge that you plug into a nearby outlet and there is another small 
device that you just stick near the latch of the door—this helps to identify 
whether the door is open or closed.

I had some connection issues at first and their support staff were good over 
the telephone.

I do not believe it has NFC, but it does work with both Google Home and Home 
Kit and can unlock your door on approach.  You can also allow other people 
access to the lock if need be and I purchased a keypad to go with it which can 
be placed outside.  In this scenario, you can give people a four digit code for

Re: what devices/appliances are people using with Apple Homekit?

Hi Donna,

All of the products I use work with Homekit  They also work with Google Home.  
I have both systems in my house, so I wanted cross compatibility.

The iHome ISS50 is a 5 in 1 sensor.  It can report back on things such as:

temperature,
humidity,
motion,
sound and,
light.

Apparently, sound monitoring doesn’t currently work with Homekit, but you can 
monitor through the iHome Control app.

More information at:

https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/ihome-ihome-iss50-5-in-1-smart-home-monitor-iss50wc/10488097.aspx
 
<https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/ihome-ihome-iss50-5-in-1-smart-home-monitor-iss50wc/10488097.aspx>

I use the iHome Control app, Philips Hue and Home for my needs and find all of 
them accessible.

Jeff

Re: Bluetooth Keyboard Command for Control Center

2018-11-25 Thread Jeff Berwick
VO does not report anything when I try the key combination.  I’ve had issues 
with this keyboard for other commands, so I’ll chalk it up to another thing I 
can’t do with it.

Thx,
Jeff

Bluetooth Keyboard Command for Control Center

2018-11-24 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi listers,

Is there a way to get to the Control Centre in IOS 12 on an iPhone using a 
bluetooth keyboard?

I found some instructions on the internet indicating to hit 
[control]+[option]+M to get to the status bar and then hit [option]+[down 
arrow] to get to Control Centre, but the [option]+[down arrow] portion of these 
instructions doesn’t do anything for me.

Tia,
Jeff

Apple Watch Exercise Ring

2018-11-20 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi all,

I have an Apple Watch and have been quite happy with it.  In the summer, it 
stopped talking to me, so I had to reset it.  The reset went fine, except now 
when I exercise for over 30 minutes, and use the Workout app, I don’t get 
credit for all my time.

For example, I might turn on the Workout app and walk for 30 minutes, but I 
might only get 41% or 71% of my exercise ring.  I’m not getting credit for my 
full workout.

Does anybody know what I can fix to get my full credit?  I know I did it, but 
it would be nice if this expense overlord knew it too. ;)

Thx,
Jeff

The formula should be:

You don’t have the equal sign and are missing the brackets surrounding the

Logetech K480

2018-05-06 Thread Jeff Berwick
Hi Listers,

I just purchased a new bluetooth keyboard and picked up the Logitech k480.

I have managed to pair it to my Mac, but I have two issues:

1.  I don’t like the placement of the FN key and would like to switch it with 
the control key.  I have gone into keyboard preferences and it seems I can 
change the FN to be control, but I can’t change control to be fn.  Any tips on 
getting around this?
2.  The FN key doesn’t actually seem to work.  Well, it works sometimes.  It 
doesn’t let me use it in concert with control option shift and an arrow key to 
performm the top or ends keystrokes.  Any thoughts on this?

TIA,
Jeff

No.  It is an add-on to your current plan. In Canada I think it is an extra $5

Re: You Tube downloader?

Hi there,

I struggled with this for a long time when I first tried youtube-dl too.

Put quotations around the url and make sure that you are using a double dash — 
prior to the youtube-dl commands—hopefully the following line translates 
correctly in email:

youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 
"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IZAVUin01U”
