once bootcamp is installed and running, is there a way to make the windows partition bigger?
hey guys, When i installed bootcamp i put a limited space on my Windows partition, and now that i have used it for months i want it to have a bigger space. Is there a way to do that from the Windows or mac, without having to format and reinstall everything? thanks Mauricio -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: A very interesting new Gmail account problem, on my MacBook.
hello Maurice, Hopefully i will be able to help you here. Also, feel free to write me off list if you get no where, because i might be able to help you via Skype as well. i believe your mistake is simple: try using the servers as the same as your first gmail account regardless of what your file says, only changing the settings that apply to user name. incredibly enough, this should fix your problems.

Re: offering help to professionals (was VM Ware Help Needed)
people are hipocritical like that, Alex. They take any oportunity they find to say non sense about people they rarely know. Independently on fedora outlier and what they do, why would someone expert on assistive technology focused on apple need to know everything about the world of virtualization, for example, as the area is distinguished? Its the same thing as asking bill gates what is the password to apples classified files, and when he says, i dont know, tell him oh you are stupid for not knowing that and claiming you are an expert! get real, people. more action, less talk, please.

Re: VM Ware Help Needed
the only issue that may be causing this might actually not have to do with vmware or Windows itself. the issue is that depending on the mac your cliente is utilizing, their processor and virtual memory may not support running vmware and the mac at the same time. i had this problem when i had one of the old White macbooks, though it did not happen with my macbook pro. also, Gabe, it also interests me a great deal why you claim he answers questions that he is not sure yet you did not post one useful word in your message. curious, is it not? maybe you should not act like people you criticise?

if i may ask, what makes you think that the list has anything to do with whatever squarrel you managed to have with said member? not that i support, as an activist, such an action taken by him or her, but there is nothing we can do about it and neither is there anything we will say that will make you not generalize. sincerely Mauricio On 6/30/13, Chris Gilland wrote: > OK, the final straw has been placed.

Re: making power points with keynote?
hello alex, you can creat power points easily with the mac, and I am speaking from personal experience here. if you want something extremely visual, grandly you will have difficulties, but that is almost certainly the case on windows as well. should you wish, i can give you an overview even via audio on how to do so if you wish. thanks mauricio On Dec 7, 2012, at 10:33 PM, Alex Hall wrote: > Hi all, > I have a friend who has a windows machine but wants a mac.

Re: helping a blind friend get technology
well, let me tell you a few things here: 1: windows are n to as safe as macs are, which adds trouble for the novice user. 2: windows computers are much less stable than the macs. 3: nvda isn't something she will be able to get support for,unless she enters a list, which already involves some learning within itself, whereas voice over's support is already with the mac. 4: why would someone start utilizing technology with something as not inclusive as windows if she could use a mc and be able to use every mac in the world after that with no additional work? most times, you will find the money spent pays off. mauricio On Dec 2, 2012, at 12:04 PM, Alex Hall wrote: > Okay, please don't shoot me for this, but I think it needs to be mentioned. > Sorry, but... why a mac?

Re: Facebook on the Mac
hello there, from my understanding, you completed your account, but is having issues with that search box which is annoying, correct? well. here's the deal with that: it will not read you what you're typing, but it will actually search, so say, if you type mauricio almeida and either press enter or press the search button, it will search for mauricio almeida. then you can just use vo u and navigate through headings to find results. hope this helps, mauricio On Nov 18, 2012, at 12:56 PM, Richard Ring wrote: > Greetings all, > I am attempting to do something I never thought I'd do, that is, set up a > facebook account.

I had a lot of difficult tagging people on Facebook, be it in the middle of posts or marking them as "with me". someone taught me how to do it, and it seems to me that sometimes that option is accessible on Facebook, sometimes not. are there any hints you can give as for an app that allows this feature to be done better, or hints on how you all keep that functionality working constantly? thank you mauricio -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Firefox Nightly Build Vs. Current Version?
hello, Lets put it this way: nightly builds are where company test their stuff. every new little thing they do is implemented in nightly builds. if it succeeds, then a lot of nightly builds become the next release. if not, it's taken off. this is a short version of the technical concept but it gives you the idea. I see no problem with trying nightly builds so long as you know they can break. thanks mauricio On Oct 12, 2012, at 3:34 AM, Teresa Cochran wrote: > Hi, all, > > I currently have the nightly build of Firefox.

Re: Boot Camp and 10.8.2
hello phil, when I did it was pretty straight forward, but there is a detail to watch out. if you install it and use quick install, which is what I did, there will be a loint when you will press the finish button. This does to mean your windows is installed, so if you take the cd out right there you're messed up and will need to start it all again. after you press the finish button, ask a sighted person to peer at your screen to tell you when it is actually done. the only thing they will actually do though is install your first screen reader on windows. as far os installing vmware will do it all. thanks mauricio On Oct 6, 2012, at 10:32 AM, "Phil Halton" wrote: > Harry, I'm pretty sure you'll have to actually "install" windows during the > bootcamp process.

Re: Boot Camp and 10.8.2
hi harry, booth camp does not cost money, except for what you pay for a legal copy of windows. I found it to be definitely worth it.

Re: Bootcamp again
hello, you can definitely do that without a mouse because you can still click with the mac one. they will encounter no difficulty. here is how this will go (number is below, you may call during installation) 1: run boothcamp utility from utilities folder. 2: select download apple support software, as well as install windows 7. 3: insert a usb drive and save the folder it downloaded. you will need it, i promise. it should move on to installing windows: 4: insert your disc, and click on continue. 4: it will restart. that is where you need a sighted person. they should select the following screens according to your preference: language timezone keyboard type of installation (go on the normal one and select boothcamp) wait the installation to finish. install the boothcamp software you saved (basic setup) install speech enjoy your new life. mauricio number: 517 899-4969 On 9/27/12, Phil Halton wrote: > Okay, I'm gonna do it - I'm gonna install windows7 on my iMac!

Re: using windows on a mac
Greetings, Once your installation is complete, there is no slowing to your system, simply because you will always be running one system at once. the process of switching can be done easily by going to system preferences>startup disc and selecting windows on boothcamp. after that, your computer will restart on windows. to come back on the mac, simply visit the boothcamp control pannel (type booth on the search box of windows seven's start menu) and ask it to restart on the mac again. enjoy, Mauricio On 9/27/12, Kimsan wrote: > I just completed bootcamp.
