Hi Jed.
Having an Apple Watch is one of those things that you could probably do 
without. However, once you get one, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without 
it. There’s a number of things you can do with an Apple Watch, from keeping 
track of your exercise routine to finding out what the weather is and a lot of 
other things you can do without having to take your phone out of your pocket. 
it’s worth it if you can afford it.

Hi,

Here's what I posted some time last week.  If you require more details, let me 
know.

First, you need to make sure that the Mailbox list is visible.  Stop 
interacting with everything and navigate with VO-right past the Favourites bar. 
 If VO announces Mailboxes table, then it is visible, otherwise either press 
cmd-shift-m, go up to the View menu and choose Show Mailbox list, or toggle it 
with the button in the Favourites bar.

Once it's visible, interact with it, find the mailbox you want in the 
Favourites, then interact with it.  Press VO-cmd-f5 to make sure that the mouse 
is routed to the VO Cursor, then press VO-cmd-shift-space to invoke the 
mouse-down command.  Stop interacting with everything then navigate left to the 
Favourites bar and interact with it.  VO-right to the place you'd like to drop 
it, press VO-cmd-f5 to once again make sure that the mouse is routed to the VO 
Cursor location, then press VO-cmd-shift-space to invoke the mouse-up command 
to drop the item.  It will usually drop just after the item you had focus on.  
You can use the mouse-down and mouse-up commands to re-arrange the items in the 
Favourites bar, and you can remove an existing item from the Favourites bar by 
grabbing it, and dragging it out of the Favourites bar then dropping it.

Later...

RE: Slow download speeds with iTunes on a network USB drive

2017-05-13 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, Scott. I see what you are saying. Oddly, my Mac is connected to the Network 
via a Cat6 cable and my windows PC is WIFI. Yet, even when connected via cable 
to the router, the Mac is slower at transferring. This whole thing sure sounds 
complicated and above my skill level.
One thing I am going to try is to copy the iTunes folder to a 6TB my cloud 
network drive just to see if the transfer speed is faster on the Mac. Of 
course, both are hardwired to the router; so it will be interesting to see what 
happens on the mac side and then on the windows side which is connected via 
WIFI.
I was sure hoping this was going to be easy when I had the idea to increase the 
size of my iTunes folder.
Thanks so much for your help and information.

No not at all, remember especially with that router, each session is handled 
separately.  THat’s what multiuser MIMO is.  So for example, your Mac may be 
negotiating a session on 5 ghz channel 36 say and your PC channel 161 on the 
5GHz band using a totally separate radio in the router.  Remember that router 
has 8 antennas not just the 4 big ones in the back so there’s all sorts of 
paths in and out of that router.  If everything is using the same SSID you 
might even have a case where the two devices are split between 2.4 and 5 GHz.  
Speeds on 2.4 GHz will be significantly slower than data carried on 5 not to 
mention the physical bandwidth is only 20 - 40 GHz on 2.4 Ghz and 80 GHz on 5.  
Things like that.  Your windows machine may be farther from the router and thus 
working better, the channel you’re using on the Mac might be picking up a 
network next door and colliding or even being disrupted by something non 
netework related like Microwave Ovens or baby monitors etc.  Let me know if 
that makes sense and how that matches your setup.

Thanks

Just a guess but this feels somehow network related to me.

Twenty five minutes is way better than 4 hours. I’d hate to see how long it 
would take to download a movie on the Mac.
hope this helps.

Here’s another test, could you attach the Mac to a wired port and do a 
comparable test to see whether the problem is WiFi related or something further 
up the stack?

Thanks and BTW I have the exact setup.  I use an 8500 running native Netgear 
software (1.2.0.94 I believe) and I’m using directly attached network storage 
instead of the built in USB option so there’s a little difference.  Be glad to 
help though if I can.

I am trying to have a universal network drive which I can access from my Mac

Transfer with the PC seems to be OK, but when downloading a purchased movie or 
TV show using iTunes on my Mac, download speed is painfully slow. One TV 
showmight take as long as 4 hours.
I don’t see anything under Mac or iTunes preferences that I can change to help

Is there anything I need to set on the router under the USB settings that would 
make iTunes downloads faster?

software (1.2.0.94 I believe) and I’m using directly attached network storage 
instead of the built in USB option so there’s a little difference.  Be glad to 
help though if I can.

Thanks

Hi, all.
I haven’t posted to this list before, but thought I’d see if you guys had any 
ideas.
I have a netgear 8500 night hawk router with an 8TB USB 3 drive connected to 
the USB3 port on the side of the router.
I am trying to have a universal network drive which I can access from my Mac 
and from my windows computer.
Transfer with the PC seems to be OK, but when downloading a purchased movie or 
TV show using iTunes on my Mac, download speed is painfully slow. One TV 
showmight take as long as 4 hours.
I don’t see anything under Mac or iTunes preferences that I can change to help 
with this situation.
Is there anything I need to set on the router under the USB settings that would 
make iTunes downloads faster?
Thanks.

Re: Accessible smart TV

Hi. Samsung has 2 models starting at around $230. One is not a smart TV, but 
the higher price one is a smartTV with network capabilities. Got mine at Best 
Buy for around $270. It is very accessible. Unfortunately, I don't know the 
model numbers. But, there are two models.

Hi. I think Ripit will let you rip the audio from the file; but I haven't

Another good program, though a bit more complicated is dvd remaster. It does a 
lot of stuff, but is a bit more complicated with lots more buttons.

Re: Looking for a good checking account program

2013-02-25 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. I assume that pocket money has a mac or Pc program as well as the iPhone 
app?
I'm not to worried about check printing nor budgeting. 
What I want to do is to enter transactions into my registries whether it is the 
credit card or my checking account.
I want to be able to transfer funds between one account and another.
I'm not looking for this to go online and do this with the bank; just enter the 
information transferring money from a savings account to a checking, etc.
I also want to be able to look at a specific registry to see whether an item 
has been entered into the registry.
I also want an end of balance total so I can know how much I have to 
spend.
I am using clear checkbook; but I'm worried as everything is stored on their 
server. If that server ever goes down, all of my info is gone. I'd like the 
ability to store my info on the mac with the main program; so I have a hard 
copy of that data to keep my own backups.
Hope this isn't to complicated. Thanks for any info you can add.

Re: Looking for a good checking account program

2013-02-25 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Thanks, Sarah; but how does it sync with an iPhone application?
I don't see a checkbook pro app in the iPhone store.
One of the things I want to do is to be able to enter items into my checkbook 
when I am out traveling.
I can do this with clear checkbook which is web based, and also with quicken. 
However, I guess that quicken isn't accessible on the mac or on the pc.
I saw something in the description of checkbook pro mentioning syncing, but 
they didn't explain what this meant.
They also didn't mention an Iphone app which would sync with their Mac app.
I could go back to recording my entries when I am out then adding them when at 
home, but I really like the idea of syncing to my phone via the cloud.
Also, do you know if checkbook pro will import qfx files from quicken in case I 
need to switch?
But the syncing with the phone is the big thing if I can get it.
Thanks.

Looking for a good checking account program

2013-02-24 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. I have been looking for a good checking account program for the mac ever 
since giving up money talks from APH.
Since then, I have been using clear Checkbook because I can enter transactions 
and read registry items using either their web site or my iPhone.
I really like the fact that accounts are synced to my phone; so I can make 
entries when away from home and my computer.

I have been playing a bit with Quicken 13 over the weekend. What I have found 
is that their iPhone app will let me enter items into the registries and will 
give me an end of balance total so I know at all times even when away from my 
computer how much is in my accounts.
With a little work, one can even examine registry entries; though I admit that 
this could be better with a little more voiceover support.

what I would like is a program which is useable on my mac or pc and one which 
will also sync data with my iPhone.
I want to be able to add entries as well as examine registry entries with my 
phone.
What are people using out there?

It's a shame we can't have a version of money talks for the mac and one for the 
iPhone where data would be synced between devices.
Is there another checking account program out there other than Clear Checkbook 
which is accessible and syncs data with the iPhone?
Has anyone tried contacting Intuit to see if they would make their Mac app more 
accessible?
I welcome any feedback and will be contacting Intuit myself about whether they 
would be willing to make Quicken 13 more accessible than it's previous versions.
Thanks for any feedback.

Re: 1Password

Hi. The only issue I have seen is when entering credit card information. You 
can't tell whether you are in the month or hear field when setting up the 
expiration date.
VO doesn't speak the field information.
Once you do it a few times, you can figure out where you are, but the first 
time, you will not be sure which field you are in.

Re: How To Import WebBraille Books Into IBooks

2012-04-20 Thread Paul Henrichsen
I'm puzzled. Why not just back translate the brf file? The problem with this 
method is that you can only read the file in ibooks with a braille display; no 
ability to listen to the book with voiceover.
For windows users, there is a free back translation program. Not sure for the 
Mac.
If you are a kurzweil user, you can load the brf file into k1000 and it will 
back translate it. You can then save it at least as a txt file before 
converting it to pdf or epub.

Re: Apple TV, dvd extras & chapters?

2012-04-14 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Ripit will allow you to choose what you want to rip, but the default is to just 
rip the movie. It will drop it into iTunes for you  if you want.
If you are ripping a tv series, there is a nice check box where you can ask it 
to separate the episodes. 
I haven't seen this in any other ripping program thus far.

My iMac won't sleep

2012-03-03 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. For some reason, my iMac will no longer go to sleep if left on. It wil if I 
select sleep, but not on its own.
In system preferrences, under users and log in, I only have growl, an apple 
helper from iTunes, I think, and dropbox. I have my power saver settings at 
default.
Any ideas what happened to make the mac no longer sleep?
Thanks.

John. I'm not seeing any sidebar. The only add button I'm seeing after doing a 
command K is the add favorite server button.
And there is no sidebar there.
Where are you seeing the add button? Can you give me the steps starting from 
the desktop?
Thanks.

Re: Mounting a network drive

2012-02-14 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Thanks for that. The recent servers menu button helped since I couldn't 
remember the exact name of the drive.
One more thing, though. Is there any way to get the drive to mount 
automatically so I don't have to press command K?
At least one keystroke is better than seven or eight; but is there a way to get 
it to mount automatically when the mac is turned on?
Thanks.

Right now, I have to go into the finder sidebar and mount it so it shows up on

Once I do that, it remains on the desktop until the next time i boot up.

Re: Airport problem solved, but two more questions

2012-02-05 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, guys. I figured it out. The drive must be formatted as a mac journal drive 
to be seen by the airport extreme. Once I did that, everything showed up as it 
should.
Next thing to figure out is how does one get files onto a macbook pro or air 
when not at home from the external drive through the cloud?
As I understand it, it should show up in the shared area in finder.
I'll have to wait until I'm not at home for that one.
It would be really neat if we could access this external drive from our iPhone 
or iPad. Hopefully, someone will write an app for that.
That would be neat if you could download a movie or tv show you didn't have on 
your iPad or iPhone from the external drive.

Re: Airport problem solved, but two more questions

2012-02-05 Thread Paul Henrichsen
My partition table is empty. No idea why. I can plug the drive in as a USB 
drive and access it. But when plugged into mhy router, nothing shows up in the 
partition table and nothing in the toolbar area of finder.
The two links that apple support sent me on configuring back to my mac won't 
open. I am told there are too many redirects.
But if I interact with the partition table in the disks tab, I am told the 
table is empty.

2012-02-04 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Thanks. I wasn't sure which sidebar you were talking about, but I know of that 
one in finder. But don't I have to do something to get the airport extreme to 
see the hard drive?
When looking in the shared area in the sidebar, I don't see the drive; but 
there is nothing currently on it.
Of course, it has no label either.
Do I need to update and restart the router now that the drive is connected?

Hi. I have a 3TB seegate goflex connected to my airport extreme. When I go into 
the disk tab of the utility, I don't see any partitions in the table. 
I don't see any sidebar as noted in the below message.
I  have share over WAN checked and have set up this using two accounts (Mine 
and my wife's) for the present.
However, I can't figure out how to get the disk tab dialog to see even one 
partition. I'm not going to partition the drive; just use the whole 3TB to 
store files.
I use carbon copy backup on a firewire drive; so am not going to use time 
machine.
I was sent two articles by apple concerning setting up the back to my mac 
feature which I have set up, but both articles won't open when I open the 
links. I am told there are too many redirects.
How do I get my airport extreme to see my 3TB drive?

Hi, guys. How do you get to the network drive remotely? 
The two guys I talked with at Apple say that you can, but I'm not sure whether 
this is done through iTunes or what?
I'm guessing you can access the files on the drive through iTunes; but not sure.
It's rather funny. One of the guys told me he would send me some articles 
explaining how to set it up and he sent me the three emails from this list.

I can't tell if their software works with VO as I can't scan anything, but it 
looks like the front screen is accessible as are the menus, at least. At least 
I hope the program is accessible. I thought I had heard others on this list who

only good OCR package out there for the mac.

Yes. That's really a problem if they aren't going to support most twain 
scanners. It would have been nice to know that before spending $100. I'm rather 
surprised that there is no preferences dialog in this app. One would think that 
for the price, it would be a little bit more robust.

problems with abby fine reader express and my epson scanner

2012-01-23 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, guys. I purchased the abby fine reader express program from the app store. 
I was having problems with my epson 4490; so decided to uninstall it from the 
print and scan dialog. However, it shows up twice in the abby program where one 
selects whether to do the conversion from a file from the scanner and I have no 
idea how to totally remove the epson drivers from my mac so I can either get a 
new scanner or try reinstalling them again.
Also, one would think that since I removed the epson from the print and scan 
dialog that it shouldn't still show up twice in abby.
Any ideas how to remove this from abby so I can start again?

Actually, it takes  less time than dvd remaster, Particularly if you do a 
multi-pass.

Re: mac DVD ripper pro, or DVD remaster?

Ripir is $24.95 unless you want the family pack which lets you put it on five 
computers in your household.
You can get a 10 percent discount by following them on twitter or liking them 
on Facebook.

Re: mac DVD ripper pro, or DVD remaster?

2012-01-13 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. Dvd remaster needs a program like fair mount in order to copy commercial 
dvd's. The problem with fair mount, is it isn't updated very often. Using fair 
mount with dvd remaster, I was unable to get a good conversion of the original 
star wars four for my iPhone. I had to buy mac dvd ripper pro and use it in 
conjunction with dvd remaster to get the conversion to work.
I have recently tried pipit, which is accessible and seems to do everything in 
one program, that is; rip then compress into an m4V file.
The new mac dvd ripper pro also can rip and convert now with their just 
released update. So, this may be a good alternative.
All three of these programs mentioned are accessible.

Re: How to transfer iTunes library to external hard drive?.

2011-12-22 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. Mac Most now has a video on this. I believe he suggests just copying the 
iTunes media folder rather than the entire iTunes folder to the external drive.
You can then tell iTunes under the preferences menu where the new library will 
be located.
He has a five minute video which explains this at macmostnow.com

If there is indeed one for the mac, I would certainly like to know about it.

Yes. I use it all the time. Chris Gilland has done an excellent tutorial on 
using it.
There is a turn on features for voiceover button, but it has been a few months

Perhaps someone else on the list can jog my memory.
But I do use it to download files at least.

Re: Fusion 4 and Window-Eyes

2011-09-23 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, Guys. I thought that I had heard somewhere that xp isn't supported any 
longer under lion.
Could this be the problem; the windows seven works better than xp under lion?

Re: More about Window-Eyes and VMware Fusion 4

2011-09-23 Thread Paul Henrichsen
It wouldn't make any sense to me to upgrade to fusion 4 then not upgrade the 
tools. Why upgrade if you aren't going to upgrade completely?
I guess I should state that I am using an iMac.
But I'm not having any issues with fusion 4 other than the fact that they took 
out the ability to launch it automatically when opening it from the doc. With 
version 3, windows seven could be made to launch automatically. This doesn't 
appear to be available in fusion 4.
You need to vo spacebar on the windows seven button.

Re: More about Window-Eyes and VMware Fusion 4

2011-09-23 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, Robert. I was concerned that I might get a video intercept problem when 
upgrading to fusion four, but window eyes didn't give me any problem at all.
I was sure I would have to reinstall it, but I didn't.
Except for a little sluggishness, it works fine.

Re: More about Window-Eyes and VMware Fusion 4

2011-09-23 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, Robert. I'm not sure this is true. I was running fusion 3 with window-eyes.
I downloaded and installed fusion four and it asked me if I wanted to upgrade. 
I did and also installed the tools. I am currently using window-eyes on my new 
fusion four without any issues at all except for a bit of sluggishness.
Otherwise, it works just as fusion 3 did for me.
Am I missing something in your message?
Thanks.

Re: Ripping cps with Amadeus?

2011-09-17 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Thanks, Eric. I guess we'll have to ask Esther if she can help by reposting 
this message. I was really bothered that I had to go through my entire music 
library removing random mp3 files that weren't supposed to be there.
The problem is most of my music is mp3 files that I brought into iTunes a few 
years ago. I don't think that iTunes converted them all to mp4 files. I just 
don't want it to add anything unless I specifically ask it to.

Difficulty reading a pdf manual in the viewer

Hi, guys. I'm having difficulty figuring out how to read a pdf manual in the

out how to read it line by line like I would do in windows by pressing down

is the only way to read anything. What if you wanted to quickly peruse a manual

is there a way to jump to that particular section?
I'm not even sure where the manual was stored. I would have thought it would 
have been in the documents folder, but it doesn't appear to be there. The only 
way I can get to it is through the help menu.
Reading documentation seems much harder on the mac than under windows.

Re: Ripping cps with Amadeus?

2011-09-11 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. I don't want to copy tracks to a cd, but just rip them from the cd.
Once I have the resulting mp3 files, I will probably transfer them to my book 
sense.
I would use iTunes to do this, but it will then put the resulting mp3 files 
into my music library forcing me to search for and remove them.
Under windows, I could use gold wave or easy CDA extractor, but I'm not sure 
there is anything equivalent on the mac.

Re: Unexpected behavior with iTunes and playing mp3 files

2011-09-11 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. On further investigation, I have found that choosing other from open with 
and selecting vlc still only opens that particular file. If you open another 
mp3 file, it opens with iTunes. There doesn't appear to be a way on the mac to 
say only open mp3 files with vlc and no other app.

Thanks. At least that way, when I open an p3, vlc will open it instead. That 
should keep it out of my iTunes library.
Odd; because the windows version of iTunes doesn't do this.

Re: Ripping cps with Amadeus?

2011-09-11 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Thanks. Can Amadeus rip tracks from a cd and create mp3 files?
I'm concerned about doing this with iTunes as every time I open an mp3 with 
iTunes, it thinks it should add it to my music library so that I then have to 
go in and remove them.
Very odd since I never saw this behavior in windows.
If Amadeus can't rip mp3 files from a cd, what would I use other than iTunes?
As an example: I have the bar code reader from AT guys. There is a cd with a 
tutorial. 
If I rip the tracks from the cd or even open the resulting mp3 file with 
iTunes, it's going to add that mp3 to my music library for some reason.
So, I want to create an mp3 file off of the cd so I can then transfer that to 
my book sense for listening.
Can Amadeus rip those tracks from the cd; or do I need to look for some other 
program?

Ripping cps with Amadeus?

Hi. Will Amadeus also rip cds as well as everything else it does?
I'm beginning to think that I don't want to do this through iTunes as it 
appears to add everything opened with it to the library and I wouldn't want a 
bunch of audio tutorials or books added to my library unless I specifically 
decided to put it there.
Thanks.

Unexpected behavior with iTunes and playing mp3 files

2011-09-10 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, guys. I was looking at my iTunes music library last night and realized that 
every mp3 file I had played or opened was now in my library. Most of these were 
audio files or podcast files I had opened. 
I don't recall ever seeing this with the windows version. Since anything audio 
opened on the mac is going to be played with iTunes, is there any way to tell 
it not to add it to the library; just play it?
I also have vlc on my system, but I don't see any way to Tell the mac that any 
mp3 file opened should be played with vlc rather than iTunes. You can use open 
with, but that doesn't mean that every mp3 opened from then on will be played 
with vlc.
I don't want to have to keep cleaning out my iTunes music library.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Re: Looking for a good task reminder program

2011-09-07 Thread Paul Henrichsen
The mail app has a to do list? Interesting. I'm particularly looking for 
programs that can run on the mac and are like the task manager in outlook I 
guess that's part of their calendaring system along with the mail part of 
outlook.

Too bad Amadeus costs so much just to have the batch conversion feature.

Hi. I was looking for the audio converter called Max in the app store, but I

Is this the one which sells for $60 or is Amadeus the one which sells for $60. 
I know that one does, but I can't tell from the below message if he is talking

I downloaded Max from their site making sure I had the stable version.

Re: reason to get a mac

Yes; but you can't really count system access. It isn't as powerful as Jaws or 
Window-eyes. I own system access to go and it's really a good enough 
screenreader, but lacks many of the powerful features of the other two such as 
set files or scripts. I don't know about NVDA.

Re: Batch conversion in Amadeus?

2011-09-01 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Yes. When you look at the app store description of the lite version, it doesn't 
mention batch conversion. 
But, you know, I paid $40 for gold wave a few years ago and never used anything 
in it except for the batch conversion. I guess I always figured I'd get around 
to doing more complicated sound editing; but I never did.
I had originally heard that the new version of Amadeus wasn't as accessible as 
older versions, but I assume that that isn't the case any longer; so I might 
just get it.
Thanks.

Re: Looking for an accessible audio converter

2011-08-31 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Yes. I thought of Switch. It is very accessible on the windows platform. I did 
have some trouble with it, though, when converting large files, but that was 
quite a while ago.
Is switch accessible on the Mac? 
I also don't like that you can't put switch on more than one machine and if you 
lose it for some reason, they will only allow you to reinstall it twice in a 
year on the windows platform.

Re: Looking for an accessible audio converter

2011-08-31 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. I don't want the resulting conversions to end up in iTunes. I just want 
conversion from ogg to mp3 without iTunes trying to import anything into the 
library.
I wasn't sure if this was possible.

Re: Looking for an accessible audio converter

Hi, Esther. I thought of Amadeus pro, but $60 is a bit more than I want to pay 
since I am just converting files; not editing them.
Will Max allow batch conversion?
Thanks.

Looking for an accessible audio converter

2011-08-29 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. I'm looking for an accessible audio converter. I need to convert ogg files 
into mp3 files. I have tunesify, but I find it less than intuitive to use.
For some reason, even though I have selected the folder with its subfolders, it 
doesn't seem to want to convert the ogg files. I also can't tell whether it 
will convert the contents of subfolders in the original folder.
Anything better out there?
I'm use to using gold wave or the audio stripper from NCH software.
However, I don't like the heavy-handedness of NCH when it comes to reinstalling 
their software or putting it on more than one machine.
Thanks.

Yes. Adobe audition is really for audio and video creation. It also costs

Forget my last message concerning Adobe Audition

2011-08-27 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi, guys. I was asking someone the other day about a program which would allow 
me to read and edit PDF files. He told me that i needed Adobe Audition. Come to 
find out, that's for creating audio and video. 
Glad I didn't buy it.
What I'm looking for is a program which will do more than the viewer in OSX. Is 
there an accessible program which allows creation, editing and manipulation of 
pdf documents on the mac?
Thanks.

No. Even with image for windows, you needed to insert a boot cd and pick the

memorize the keystrokes, but no speech guidance at all.

Re: Carbon copy versus time machine

2011-08-17 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Thanks, Mike. That's what I was thinking as well. Of course, you can schedule 
carbon copy to backup daily, I suppose. I haven't looked at its scheduling 
options as of yet.
When I was using windows, I used to backup using image for windows weekly, but 
not much more than that. Occasionally, I would do a backup before installing 
some piece of software which I thought might mess up my computer; but mostly 
backed up each saturday.
The only thing I miss, and I'm not sure carbon copy can do this, is that I used 
to keep at least one backup from the previous week; so I always had two; the 
one from the previous week and the one from the current week.
I know they have that archiving thing, but I'm not exactly sure how that works. 
It doesn't sound like it allows for keeping two backups then allowing you to 
pick which one to restore from.

Thanks.

Looking for a good unzipping program.

2011-08-17 Thread Paul Henrichsen
Hi. I know that the mac will unzip zip files, but I'm looking for one that will 
also unzip RAR files as well. I know that the win zip people have a version for 
the mac, but I don't know how accessible it is.
Any recommendations for an accessible one?
Thanks.
