Re: Copying the contents of a pdf file into textedit
HI. with mavericks at least I am able to open a pdf file in preview, press command a and then command c to copy it to the paste board. Not sure if this can still be done in Yosemite.

The easiest way is to create an Automator workflow like the following. 1. open Automator and choose the services template. 2. Interact with the work flow area and set the service to have no input and to only work with Preview. 3. Add the following actions to the work flow: run apple script, get specified finder items, and extract pdf text. You want them in that order. 4. Interact with the run apple script action and enter the following in the input field: on run tell application “Preview” path of document of front window end tell end run 5. Interact with the extract pdf text action and configure it to output plain text or rtf as you prefer. 6. Save it. That should get the job done. It should also show up in the services menu of Preview. I’m sure you can think of ways to fine tune this idea to better meet your needs. Note that I have found that the extract pdf text action doesn’t seem to work with multi lingual pdfs for some reason.

See the answers below your questions: I didn’t know about the K and shift+K keystrokes, but what is the differences between K, shift+K and E? E gives you just a preview of the cut you haven’t done yet. K and Shift + k let’s you hear one second before and one second after the insertion point. That’s the way you can get to know where the insertion point exactly sits. Moreover, is there a way to have a Voiceover feedback of the position in second for the insertion point and the play head? There’s a clock in the toolbar which shows the position of the … I’m not quite sure but I beleive it’s of the insertion point. Please try it out and you’ll see wether it’s of the insertion point or the playhead. I could recommend to set a hot spot there. Unfortunately it’s not always reliable in terms of the chosen audio track. Another question: if I must cut out the ending of a very large file, How can I move the play head till the end in order to play it backward and find the starting of my cut ? Sorry, I didn’t get what you meant. I find it not recommendable to use the playhead to move while audio is highlighted. But if there is something highlighted, you can use a / s and d/ f to change the edges of the highlighted part. If you changed it press e to hear wether it’s OK now.

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.

Re: mvware fusion questions
Hi. thanks will try this. Maria and Joe Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com On 15 Jul 2014, at 3:22 am, Tristan theblinddj...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Maria, If the VM starts but you don't receive any feedback, this is because Windows is probably doing something prior to start up. It could be one of the following: 1. An error or notification that something went wrong. Try shifting focus to the VM and hitting F1 or enter a few times. 2. A disk check (using CHKDSK.exe) - this is simply a check of the Windows harddisk to make sure it doesn't have any inconsistencies or errors. Usually if Windows detects a fatal problem, it will launch this automatically, though I don't see how it could be having HDD failures on a virtual harddrive. 3. A selector dialogue, such as a screen asking you which drive to boot from. Again, as in step 1, I recommend just attempting to hit enter or F1 a few times while focus is on the VM if you don't have sighted assistance. Hope this helps.

Re: mvware fusion questions
Hi. can't remember if I made a snap shot or not, but if I didn't, I will keep that in mind when i get windows going again. regards Maria and crew from australia bubbygirl1...@gmail.com On 15 Jul 2014, at 5:43 pm, Paul Erkens paul.erk...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Maria and Joe, Did you create any snapshots with fusion? A snapshot is a certain moment in time that you captured, when windows was still just fine. Every week, I create a snapshot in fusion, as long as windows is healthy. This way, if something like this does happen, then you can always go back to the latest snapshot, and all you loose, is data from the time the snapshot was taken, until now. Of course, you can backup windows using its tools, but a snapshot really is a great benefit. So if you did make a snapshot, then simply restore it and you're good to go again. For those interested: at any given time, you can make a snapshot of the current state of windows. It is like a full backup, but done by fusion, and therefore it is blazingly fast, without sacrificing anything a full backup gives you. While windows is off, and you know it's still healthy, just go into the fusion menu bar with VO plus m, go to the right over to virtual machine, and then down to snapshots. Once the dialog opens, use the toolbar to create a snapshot. That's all you need to do to make a full backup of your vm. If you get in trouble, return to this dialog. You'll see a list of previously created snapshots if you made any, and if you select one from that list, just hit restore in the toolbar and windows is back to the state it was in when you took that particular snapshot. Unlike a backup, which takes minutes to restore, restoring windows to a previous fusion snapshot is a matter of seconds. The snapshots are stored in your fusion folder, together with the data that contains your virtual windows. If you see that your snapshots are taking up too much mac disk space, you can easily get rid of them from the fusion interface. Hth, Paul.

backing up a iPhone without iTunes?
HI. Hi list. Am writing this message for a friend. I don't know the answers as I have iTunes and I am using a mac, he is using windows xp and currently doesn't have iTunes installed. ok. 1. We have enabled everything we can find on iCloud, is it possible to back up apps this way without installing itunes? 2. We double tapped on the wifi sinc and it said to plug phone in to iTunes and select wifi sinc. 3. Where is this option? 4. If the phone is sinked via wifi, does iTunes have to be kept on the computer? 5. does the computer have to be on while the phone is being sinked wirelessly? I think that's it if there are any more questions I will ask.

If they get enough list traffic with this one subject, it may make the developer realize that we are not an insignificant population. This basically means we need to find, contact and convince every blind ham (quite a few of us are mac users) and have them start this campaign. The only other way I can see to get him to do what we want is to throw some money at him, post proof to his list and request that he make the changes needed to allow us to use his software.

I've finally come to the decision on switching from Windows to Mac. I'll either be getting a MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro. One of the big things for me, however, is virtual machines (or bootcamp). I still want to be able to virtualize a copy of Windows in case I have programs that will only work on the Windows side. Right now, the main things I do on Windows are word processing, internet browsing, Skype which would be possible on the Mac side, music and the occasional game (mostly MUDs using a low memory client).

Hi. disregard the message about super drive not being supported. It hasn't been long since I've owned this macbook and wasn't aware that I had a optical drive in it.

super drive not supported?
Hi. when I bought my mac mini a couple of years ago, I bought an external dvd drive. It has always worked fine on the mini although I haven't tried it since updating to mavericks. I recently bought a macbook pro and when I plug the drive in, I get a notification saying that this super drive is not supported by this mac. Do I need to update something, or do I need another external drive? thanks in advance.

Re: Stability of the Mac
Hi. I find that an iPhone or iPad doesn't quite meet my needs. I still use a macbook primarily when I am at home. There are still things like advanced word processing that are kind of difficult on a tablet or smart phone. that's just my opinion though.

Simple audio production tasks are viable. And we have access to features that aren't really viable on pc's such as security systems management, and GPS navigation. Soon we'll have micro-location support and many other opportunities that will encourage us to leave the desktop/laptop world behind. It may behoove you to simply invest more time learning IOS and picking up apps and accessories that enrich your experience in the mobile world, rather than investing in a switch to an expensive new technology that will be obsolete in three years.

Re: Mavricks 10.9.2 and FaceTime Voiceover Problems

I don't know if it's VoiceOver specific, or something else. So, could somebody explain maybe what's going on? My plan was to add somebody to FaceTime so I could try the audio feature. It looks like this will not happen, however. When adding anybody, or editing them, what happens for me, is super strange. Voiceover is at factory default configurations, I recently reinstalled my Mac from the recovery disk, and had to reinstall Mavricks, so none of the VoiceOver settings have been touched. What hhappens, is I can fill in the name, box with no problem. But if I try to skip the feelds and either tab or VO-keys myself over to the email edit box, and enter in the persons address, for some reason, the email box is never populated, the work phone screen or home phone screen appears to be populated, and as a result which for some odd reason Apple accepts either rway, I cannot FaceTime anybody, and when editing them, I still cannot correct things with the non-keyboard entry accepting but clearly available email edit box. So I don't get it! And I really want to test this audio only call thing, but I'm frustrated to hell. I'm trying everything I personally know to do and nothing is working. Consequently, I appear to be having trouble with the contacts app when adding contacts. Email addresses are not showing up properly if I view the details with FaceTime after entering details in Contacts.app, so I don't know what's going on. I'm so frustrated I've given up for now. Does anybody have any particular ideas? FYI, I'm on 10.9.2. Any thoguhts from anybody would be nice, especially if anybody can verify weather this is a bug, or user error. If somebody is able to do what I cannot, mind 0providing clear instructions on what steps you used to reliably add them to FaceTime?

Glad to hear that the Mac is going well for you. I remember when I got the Mac I'm on almost 4 years ago. 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.

GW Micro and Microsoft Corp. have partnered to make Window-Eyes available to users of Microsoft Office at no cost. Window-Eyes is a screen reader that enables people who are blind, visually impaired, or print disabled to have full access to Windows PCs and makes the computer accessible via speech and/or Braille. To better deliver Window-Eyes to the people who need it most, GW Micro and Microsoft have collaborated on this global initiative, available in over 15 languages, to enable anyone using Microsoft Office 2010 or later to also use Window-Eyes for free. Access to technology is critical to people who are blind or visually impaired in order to have the same opportunity to compete in the workplace. As such, this initiative between GW Micro and Microsoft has the potential to reduce barriers for millions of people who are blind or visually impaired around the world. As the population ages, technologies like Window-Eyes will become more and more important as the number of people with age-related macular degeneration and other retinal degenerative diseases increases. This significant change in the way we are doing business reflects the changing perception of accessibility and also technology in general. Rather than wait for the world to change, Microsoft and GW Micro are leading the way, said Dan Weirich, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for GW Micro. Weirich believes this technology can help millions of people gain access to their PC, and that providing it free of charge will open a whole new world of assistive technology to many people.

Re: 10.9.1 Disappointing
HI. you’ve made some really good points. I do think there are small improvements being made though. Granted it’s slower than we would like it to be, but consider the latest bug that was fixed which is voice over not reading Emergy I think perhaps the bug with vo j is going to be one of those tough ones to fix as some people are having problems and others aren’t. I think overall though vo is becoming a great screen reader. Maybe not as advanced as jaws, but I’ve found jaws on some systems to be buggy as well. Is there room for improvement and more dialog? Yep for sure. I do think we are getting there slowly though. pardon the rambling.

In response to what you've said, and the contributions of a few others today, I'd make the following points. Apple is a mainstream company, but by virtue of the fact that they've decided to produce screen readers, that also makes them a screen reader company and I think that means they should be held to no less a standard than any other screen reader company. In fact, you could argue they may be held to a slightly higher one, because if the cross-functional teams are working right, they can build in accessibility from the ground up when a new OS is being designed which gives them an advantage. I think also that as paying customers, we're entitled to be concerned when something that worked well before does not work as well now, at least for some of us. I think it's also important that there is genuine dialogue that goes on between a relatively small, niche community like ours, and Apple. People have to pay sums that for many blind people are quite significant, in order to beta test Apples operating systems and offer comment at a time when it can hopefully make a difference. Assuming some blind people are doing this, and bugs are being reported, some decision is being made somewhere not to give these bugs a high enough priority to be fixed. I was a product manager for 10 years, so I know that that's all part of the process, a company can't fix every single issue and you have to make the tough call. I think though that with some of the efficiency hits we're taking, perhaps there's a misunderstanding about how important some of these issues actually are. I don't think Apple is evil or anything like that, nor are they saints. I think they were motivated to really grab the accessibility bull by the horns through a mixture of altruism and business pragmatism, and they've done a great job. I'd just like to see some new vehicles for communication with our community emerge.

Re: i text express question
Hi. this is awesome and very good instructions. I could never figure out how to access bookmarks in iText express. regards Maria and crew from australia email: bubbygirl1...@gmail.com check out www.95-the-mix.com where we play lots of great music On 17 Dec 2013, at 2:27 am, Andrew Lamanche andrew.laman...@gmail.com wrote: 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.

HI. can you select an copy the text in to say a text edit file? thanks Warm regards and blessings Maria, Joe and FurBabies Email: iMessage:bubbygirl1...@gmail.com On 16 Dec 2013, at 12:16 pm, Alex Hall mehg...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I got Prizmo for Mac a while ago thanks to a series of promo codes they were giving out on Twitter. When I got it, it was pretty bad and not at all an efficient experience. I just did a scan with their latest update; it is still not perfect, but they have come a long way. First, in Prizmo's accessibility preferences, you can enable auto-OCR, so when a scan completes it will run OCR without you needing to do anything. Just bring up the window chooser, go to the untitled window, new item, and your text is there. Second, note that Prizmo breaks up text based on paragraphs, so you will have a bunch of text fields with one paragraph each. You may need to stop interacting with the first one to read the rest. So, is it Docuscan or Abbyy? I don't know, I have never used them. But is it better than it was? Most certainly, and the devs do take accessibility into consideration. The OCR percentage never used to be accessible, now it is; there did not used to be an auto-OCR option, now there is; the scanner selection list was barely accessible, now it works perfectly; and so on. Plus, it is only $50, by far the cheapest OCR solution for the Mac I know of. Follow @Prizmo on Twitter and you might see a promo code giveaway again this year. It's certainly worth a try. Plus, the OCR itself is quite good, at least in my limited tests.

HI. I’m not sure that its broken. I think vo is just letting you know that a new message has come in. this might be important information for some.

If you press vo j and are reading a message and hear 1 row added, just make sure quick nav is on and arrow down. the rest of the message should be available for you to read. hth. regards Maria and crew from australia email: bubbygirl1...@gmail.com check out www.95-the-mix.com where we play lots of great music On 18 Dec 2013, at 5:02 am, alia robinson ali...@gmail.com wrote: I am getting a lot of mail, and it does interfere greatly for me. with imap you can’t tell it to do manual retrieval, so yes, it is interupting me every couple of minutes. for the amount of mail I get it makes it unuseable. they will either have to fix it or I guess I will have to live with doing it the hard way.

Re: huge mail problems still
HI. If I press return or command o I get from and maybe their email address etc. When I press backspace to delete I get inbox iPhone message 1 of xxx etc. If I press vo j I hear the text of the message straight up and then when I press back space it just tells me the next message usually. I think it’s just personal preference. If quick nav is on and I press vo j I can arrow through the message. If quick nav is turned off and I try to arrow through the message I hear other messages in the list. I hope this kind of makes sense.

I used the previous version of ExpanDrive (usually $39.95 for license) for FTP, which was the solution for people who preferred a GUI-based FTP app before the later versions of Transmit we're released. Now I use Transmit, but I think ExpanDrive is still accessible. I'd have to ask on the Mac-Access list where I think ExpanDrive 3 was the chosen FTP app of some people a year ago, since I've never seen any discussion on this list. I think the Paragon NTFS 2-in1 bundle that normally lists for $29.95 may be accessible. at least, I know people on the Mac-Access list who have used the part that lets NTFS drives be viewed from the Mac. Since the other part is supposed to let Windows users read Mac formatted drives, I have no idea of its accessibility. You could try posting to the Mac-access list for questions on some of these apps. I'll just note that purchasing MacUpdate bundles or MacUpdate promos on individual apps requires that you create an account, which entails a one-time negotiation of a CAPTCHA. Afterwords, the buying process is accessible, and you can access a record of your receipts, license codes, and download links from logging into your account. They also let you designate the individual apps in the bundle to other users, in case this includes something you have already purchased. There's usually a link for trial downloads so you could check the accessibility for yourself before purchasing.

Anyway, i would have spend 95% of the time reading books using ipad or other mobile devices than reading on the computer. So, again, unless the developer can justify in some way, e.g. able to read BRF file, or like another Scott said, the ability to use with Braille Displays etc, i still can't justify it right now.

Re: Virtual Machine/ Bootcamp advice
HI. I am running a vm quite successfully on a mac mini. Granted I have 8 gigs of ram but as far as I know, if you’re not using the vm then your memory stays with the mac os. I have a usb cd rom drive so I used that to install windows from a cd. I think sighted assistance is needed to install bootcamp but vmware is accessible without sighted assistance. I like vmware personally because it means I don’t have to reboot the mac to go in to windows. some people have said that windows runs better under bootcamp however personally I’m not experiencing any problems. I used narrator to find my nvda installation and pressed enter once windows was up and running. I hope this helps Maria and Joe Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com On 30 Nov 2013, at 11:01 pm, Lee Jones leejones...@sky.com wrote: Dear List,I am new to the macworld.

My question for you all is, would you be interested in such a program on the Mac and if yes would you please let me know if you will purchase his application for $30 once it is built?

There are thousands of free ePub books available on the Internet if you are willing to just look for them, and those of us who self publish our own writings usually create drm free eBooks that can be read with such a program. I am not saying that Q-Read for the Mac will be the only solution for this type of thing but as of right now I don’t of any other programs that do this that are completely accessible.

First, my message was not an attack on Q or his software. I used qwitter and while it was around it was useful. It had a lot of issues and rather than rewrite it, it was abandoned for better horizons. Whether or not you agree with this is sort of irrelivant as it happens all the time. If it was freeware, then by all means the author can do what he or she wants and that's done over and over again. If it was hope, I feel like the author at least has some small obligation to the end-users. My points were that I do dismiss it, but not out of hand. I don't believe it is fair to require $1200 in licensing fees from users before you decide whether or not you'll make something. If I buy a piece of software, I buy it based on the software itself. Having not tried it, I will not pledge any money toward the future of something that may not even be released or that I may not even like.

It has other features as well, but I'm not a user of the program so can't enumerate them. Yes, Qwitter was quite a big deal, but as I recall there were problems beyond users asking questions. Hope has not been updated, but honestly, it works well and is not lacking any features I can find, so does it really need an update? I'm not saying I would commit to buying Q-Read for Mac, since I know I would not use it enough (I read mostly on my iPhone) but look into this more before dismissing it out of hand. Yes, iBooks is now on the Mac, but can anyone really call using it a good reading experience?

For example, what books does it access. which formats. What are its advantages over other readers? It sounds like a good thing in principle, but what is it in practice?

And I agree with Tyler. $30 is a lot to commit to for something when it doesn't exist. But personally, I don't give that developer a dime of my money. Not ever.

Re: copying text in mail
Hi. I’ve found if you press enter on a message it let’s you copy the text. press command w to close. another way I have done it is to •make sure quick nav is on •jump to the text as usual with vo j, •you should be able to navigate the text with your left and right arrow keys, if not interact with the text. •, find the part you want to copy, press vo command f 5 •press vo enter voice over should say selecting •press vo enter again when you’ve finished selecting •press command c to copy I hope both these methods work for you.

I don’t generally like to just forward stuff, I’d rather copy out the pertenent bits so my recipient doesn’t get all the junk you do when simpley forwarding.. thanks!

ibooks and short cuts?
HI. Am currently reading an ibook on the mac. I am having trouble with the command shift right arrow short cut to go to next chapter. sometimes it works and other times it says part of the text i’m reading is highlighted. Is anyone else having trouble with this? Should it be reported to the accessibility team? thanks. regards Maria and crew from australia email: bubbygirl1...@gmail.com check out www.95-the-mix.com where we play lots of great music -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.
