Alternatives for Droptext.
Hi all. I have just started working with droptext and although its nice I wonder if there are other alternatives for text editors on the IOS platform worth exploring. One thing bothering me with droptext is that it takes some keypresses to get into a file that you want to work on? Also I really hope that one day, preferably right now would be nice, it would be possible to get an app that remembers where you last left a document so you easily can continue writing. The I-pad-pod-phone is stil some way from being a notetaker substitute. But maybe I am wrong and just have not found the right app. Best regards, Jesper. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

I can't get the hang on smart playlist.
Hi all. I have just bought an ipod touch and now I need to put my library of music on the ipod. However, since I have my musuc collection in Aif format I need to convert to another format, either lossless or aac or mp3 in order to fit it on my ipod. Thus far, I have converted to aac all my files, in the way that there exists one big library with all aif and aac files in the same library. I would like to accomplish 2 smart playlists one containing all my Aif files, the other containing my aac files. After research on the net I have found out that Maybe it can be done, but I just cannot get it to work, when I try to make a smart playlist. After interacting with the rules section of the dialobogx what parameters to set. I have tried diffferent things, but after concluding the setup Itunes says that nothing has been put into the rule. If any of you could help me with some step-by-step instructions, I will greatly apprreciate your help.

Re: Problem getting itunes to find my music library after re-install
Hi Esther Thank you for your very comprehensive and thorough anser I am up and running with my music collection and podcast etc. so thank you very much. Kind Regards, Jesper. - Original Message - From: "Esther" To: Sent: Saturday, September 12, 2009 1:09 PM Subject: Re: Problem getting itunes to find my music library after re-install Hi Jesper, If you simply want iTunes to find your music again, and are not worried about trying to recover playlists, then you can just use "Add to Library…" (Command-O) and point to your current iTunes Music folder (e.g., ~/Music/iTunes) as the folder to be added. iTunes stores the database information for your Music library in two files under your user account. On a Mac these are: ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Library.xml The first file is a binary format file that iTunes works with. The second (.xml) file is a version of the first file that third-party software programs can work with, that contains much (but not all) of the same information. When you first open iTunes, it will look for these files. If they are not present, then iTunes will create these files (which will have no entries). If you have a copy of the "iTunes Music Library.xml" file from a backup, you can force iTunes to rebuild its "iTunes Library" file with the contents of the "iTunes Music Library.xml" file by opening the newly created "iTunes Library" file in an editor like TextEdit, deleting everything, and then saving the file. Note that it does not work to delete the file, since iTunes will just create a new version of this file, reflecting a blank library, the next time you open iTunes. If you then replace the existing .xml file (i.e., "iTunes Music Library.xml") with your backup version (by deleting the newly created "iTunes Library.xml" file and copying your backup version to this directory), then the next time you open iTunes it will rebuild the "iTunes Library" file using the contents of your "iTunes Library.xml" file. What this means is that all the information about your playcounts, ratings, playlists, etc. will be reconstructed. The only thing that will different is that the information about the date the tracks were added to your library will be lost -- they will all show up as being added at the time you forced iTunes to rebuild its database. This method only works well if the music tracks are in the same location as they were when you made the backup of your "iTunes Music Library.xml" file -- which does not appear to be the case here, since you've moved your tracks from the the external drive to Macintosh HD. However, if you really want your music tracks to be stored on your external drive, the tracks are still there, and you have an old copy of your "iTunes Music Library.xml", perhaps from a Time Machine backup, then you can use the method I outlined above to restore your library. Otherwise, it might be easiest to just use "Add to Library" (Command-O) and type or paste: ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music into the dialog window prompt (assuming that is where you've copied your music). Then iTunes will simply recreate the library data base when it adds your music. You will lose the information on playlists and also playcounts and ratings, I think, but the other information will all be there. It's possible to edit the backup "iTunes Music Library.xml" and use "Find and Replace" to change the file paths of all your music from the external to your current music location, but that can be rather tedious. (Maybe somebody should write a script or automator workflow for this problem; it should be possible to shell script this easily enough.) In any case, one of these solutions should work for you. The easiest thing might be just to add all your current tracks on the Macintosh HD to your iTunes Library. Make sure that these tracks are somewhere in your folder ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music folder before you "Add to Library" with Command-O. It doesn't even matter if the tracks are not organized by structure of Artist and Album -- iTunes will reorganize this correctly from your tag information when it adds the tracks and move the files to the proper location within this directory. The main point is that if you are adding your tracks from some other location, iTunes will copy versions to the "iTunes Music" folder when it adds the tracks, thus doubling the amount of space that is occupied. This assumes that you have the default iTunes preference settings for the advanced pane of iTunes preferences with the boxes checked for "Keep iTunes Music folder organized" and "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library". You can check your settings by opening the preferences menu with Command-comma, and navigating to the "Advanced

It doesn't help to press enter on each episode? Or to refresh. What else can I do? Thanks in advance! Jesper. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: French Braille
Hi.
Yeah, but do the mac uses the same ansi tables, as windows? I reckon that it
is not the case,

Re: Can one email account be used on 2 Macs?
Hi. Yeah, you could use gmail. www.gmail.com There you can set up an Imap account. Works fine, also in cross platform setups.

Re: Support for braille wave display from handytech
Hi David.
Thank for your help. We just thought that since it was not on the list, then it
would not be supported either. And a google search told us that it was not
supported at least a while back. So thanks once again, and we'll get back to
you if the need arises.
Jesper.

Hi.
Well, we plugged the breaillewave in and nothing happend, neither when
using usb nor when using blue tooth. We didn't install the braille update
version 1.0 from apple, since the braille wave wasn't mentioned on the list for
supported devices.
So any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

Hi all.
Do any of you know by chance, if the braillewave display from handytech
is supported by voiceover? It is not on the list on the voiceover website, but
that does not imply that it is not supported anyway.
I hope that it is possible to connect the display anyway!

Hello, The best way to get this fixed is to directly contact the people at www.elgatto.com and let them know that their software doesn't work with VoiceOver. I've sent in feedback for every point update, but if I'm the only person providing constructive feedback, I'm honestly not worth the time and effort it would take to make the interface accessible. Time costs cash in business, and they need a business case to justify access. Should they need such things? Probably not, but very few companies or individuals do the job just because it is the "right thing to do." If enough people expressed interest, and they came to the conclusion that making the software accessible equals more customers, they'd do it for sure.

Hi. All mac computers are intel based today, and therefore you can run windows or linux or any other operating system that runs on intle computers in a virtual machine. Whether you buy a mac mini or mac book laptop depends on your requirements. Be ware that the mini is the cheapest of the mac systems and that it comes without mouse, keyboard and a screen.

I'm using the latest version of VLC player which works very well with Voiceover. I haven't found any inaccessible features in VLC Player yet. Regarding Eyetv, it's not 100% accessible. I'm able to select the different channels and record the channel I'm watching. Eyetv have a lot of features, but I haven't tried them all. I've messed around with the tv guides for a while ago, but I don't know what website I have to receive the program guides from. So I was stuck when I had to enter a username and a password...

Re: Vlc and eye tv question once again.
Hi. What will be my setup as it looks now: Imac 24 FIREDtV firewire external digital tv reciever that hooks up to my cable provider using db c codec. software might be eyetv 3 either as stand alone, or in conjunction with front row via Pye tv plugin. I plan to connect the imac to my hifi setup through the digital optical output via tosslink, or maybe USB to an Hegel h100 stereo high-end amplifier, and wall mounted speakers. In the future Sonos or squeezebox and a nas server may be part of the equation. Any other suggestions would be greatly apreciated! Ps. I have ordered but not yet gotten my Imac! So I am waiting anxiously for the beast to arrive Best, Jesper. - Original Message - From: "Mark Baxter" To: Sent: Monday, April 06, 2009 10:29 PM Subject: Re: Vlc and eye tv question once again. > > Are these TV applications for the Mac that get regular cable channels, > E.G. are you using a cable?
