Re: VR streams on a mac?
The stream works great. The only thing you'll need is the new softpack add on to listen to books from Audible or music from ITunes. The new additional software interacts with ITunes now and that makes everything accessible. Good luck and enjoy your stream...

Re: VR streams on a mac?
They just came out with a new update to the VRStream software and are offering an additional softpack for $49.00 that will work with ITunes and your Mac. You can find it at http://www.humanware.com Under shopping and the VR Stream softpack. I haven't purchased it yet but figure at some point I will.

Re: Solona command line
I don't really know what solona is but if you're in the command line for the mac, you use cd for (change directory) like in dos. When you use the terminal program, you're in the home directory for your user ID. In that directory are folders or directories like downloads, documents and so on. If you want to go to one of those directories, you'd use cd documents or downloads or whatever the directory name is. To get help in this command line, use the command man and then the command you want to use. Examples are man ls (List Directory), Man cp (copy files), man mv (move files). These are command unix commands for moving in the directory structure of the Mac. You man be able to use a man -k command to look up keywords for things you may want to do. If I'm whistling into the wind here, sorry about that. If not, good luck and I hope this helps.

VMWare Fusion and Bluetooth
I decided to get a free trial version of fusion. I wanted to install windows 7 and have basically fired that up. Once I engaged the install of pieces and parts (drivers), my bluetooth keyboard went away. I suspect this will make it difficult.

Re: KNFB Reader iPhone App
I've only tried to read a couple of things. I'd let it read a guitar strings package and it read just about everything on there that I could ever want it too. I had it read a check and it read the check label, the description of the pattern based on the fact that it was a check with kiss on it. It just seems like it just gets it. I agree that the cameras placement has been a pain with other apps. I used it to read the screen on my refrigerator too. It did a pretty good job there as well.

Re: KNFB Reader iPhone App
In 1990 Vocational Rehab and an associated State organization for unemployment purchased the Kurzweil personal reader for me. That purchase and the technology opened a door to employment for me. Since that experience, I would recommend anything developed by Kurzweil. It worked then and it works now.

Re: Vo and Citrix?
Based on my experience, you'd need be facing the same challenges with VO as you do with Windows and JAWS. If you're logging into a windows virtual environment, you'd need to be using a fusion like product to run windows and JAWS on your mac. I'm not aware of any Mac virtual environments being setup using that configuration but in my opinion, you'd need to run VO on the virtual machine to get the access. I know this isn't a true yes or no answer but its the best I have with my limited experience. It does sound like fun though.

Question About Flash
I subscribe to a site that shows video sports features from time to time. I have installed the click to flash and the youtube5 extension.

Re: Lion, a lemon?
I've been using lion since it came out. When I first upgraded, the mail drove me nuts. I'm past the mail issues and have gotten real comfortable with it. The safari busy message has happened more but mostly whenI moved to a previous page. I started using the command LeftArrow to move back and that seemed to help. The disabling of plugins in the security settings for safari has helped too. I need to turn those on when doing something with youtube but that isn't often. The truth is that my experience wasn't great at first but the longer I work with it, figure out work arounds, I really like it. If you're frustrated with safari, have someone explain to you what is happening on the screen. It can help you determine how to make it work for you.

Re: accessible banking?
Yes... Using VoiceOver and Lion. I login, check balances, make transfers and pay bills. I've been successful with both banking sites. If you have specific issues, you can call either bank and they'll try and help you. I have personally helped in the past. If you don't contact us, provide us input, it makes it difficult to know of issues. Good luck and try giving Wells a call. They're really pretty nice folks.

Epson IPrint App and IPhone
This is more of an FYI for everyone. I have an Epson Printer/copier/scanner I downloaded the Epson app for the Iphone and have been able to operate the printer using the app. This has really been good for creating PDF documents and sending them out attached in E-mails with signatures and all.

spotify and the Mac
My brother was telling me about a program called spotify. It is used to listen to music of all types. Instead of buying music, you just search for an artist and you can listen from your computer as much as you like. I downloaded the application for the Mac but it doesn't seem to be accessible. Does anyone know if it is accessible on windows and or on an IOS device? Kev -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
