Re: Meta Glasses on iPhone
Whenever you encounter a bug with the Meta glasses or Meta View app, as a previous update indicated, shake your phone to bring up the help menu. Follow the prompts to indicate the problem and add a Screen Shot if possible. I did this to point out that the Communications section had unlabeled buttons and I could not sink with What’s App and Messenger. The problem was fixed in the very next update. I assume others had also pointed out the bug but I am mentioning this to say that developers do listen. Make sure your voice is heard.

Re: Options available for blind with motor disabilities person?
I just googled the request and came up with 6 options. However, the Blind Shell Classic was not included. It is a Smart Phone that runs on the Android OS. I also believe it only runs on T Mobile. Check your local state agency and physically check out the options. Good luck.

Re: Headphones on iPhone 15 Pro
If your speaker is bluetooth, make sure it is listed as a speaker in systems, bluetooth, name of speaker, flick up for information, choose speaker. Also, make sure headphones are selected in system sound, output. However, the former suggestions are probably correct. Your headphone jack isn’t fully inserted, is dirty or wires are broken. If possible, try another aux cable between the computer and headset. Good luck..

Re: My first ever Zoom call on a mac and I'm really worried
Do not worry. Zoom on the Mac is quite simple. However, when you click the link to get you into the meeting, it will probably launch Safari and let you in that way. You can also download the /Zoom USA app from the ‘’zoom site. Try it out a few times before the meeting to familiarize yourself with all of of the options and keyboard equivalents. I also remind everyone to go to the Menu bar and experiment. And, as always, if you get stuck, Google it. Yes, I know, Siri also works if you get stuck,.

Combining headphone output from two devices.
I would like to connect with Zoom calls on my I Phone 15 Pro while listening to agenda items or notes with TextEdit on my MacPro. I would like to combine the outputs of both machines via one pair of headphones. I cannot listen to TextEdit with my Mac speakers without having it being picked up by my phone’s microphone. I could mute the mic on my phone, listen to my notes and then unmute, but that may be a bit cumbersome while chairing some meetings. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Re: I Found text-Dictation command
Yes, you can turn it on the keyboard preferences. However, there are seven different options for how to turn it off using your keyboard. I chose press the command key twice. Actually, I chose push the right command key twice I first started with option right arrow but that's how you go from word to word in a text document so that is already used. It seems to work very well. Good luck. By the way, I dictated this now I'm gonna press the command key twice to stop dictation.

Re: speaker phone
Also, get your hand away from the top of the phone. You may be triggering the proximity sensor. This is what lowers the volume when you bring the phone close to your ear.

Re: ZoomText on the Mac Coming Soon
I too am a VoiceOver only user. I have spoken at length with friends of mine who are low vision users though. Not to stray to far off topic for this list, but by all accounts from people I know, magnification on any version of windows is hardly sufficient. As was stated earlier in this thread, comparing builtin windows magnification to a product like zoom text is like comparing narrator to jaws. As for zoom text coming to the mac, if it does nothing else, it will certainly be a familiar comfort for windows users who are considering switching. I say this only because someone has expressed to me their hesitancy to switch because they like the features of zoom text and don't think zoom on the mac gives them all thse features. The mac users who are experienced with zoom may not wish to even consider zoom text, but for new or those considering switching, it might be that last push for them to make the complete change. I can't debate the merrits of zoom on the mac because I can't see, just offering an opinion based on conversations with magnification users. - Original Message - From: dhacker To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2012 4:13 PM Subject: Re: ZoomText on the Mac Coming Soon I don't think there's any reason to make that comparison, it's just not valid. Zoom on Mac works but it's not a sophisticated product. Voiceover works and it IS a sophisticated product. Ai Squared sees an opportunity to better Zoom related features. Also, the way Voiceover works may be fantastic (your mileage may vary) for blind users but for users who simply need reading "support" it's clear that there is an opportunity to build it. Put it this way, ZT Win does very well even though there is built in Zooming on Windows and sophisticated (JAWS, Windows Eyes) screen readers on the market as well as decent free ones (NVDA).

Re: accessing drop folder and sent folder
Find mail boxes and expand them with v o backslash or is it v o shift backslash, don't even think about the combo anymore, then interact and you should find them.

You should make sure that the files put in dropbox on the computer have completely uploaded to the server. Depending on the file size, this could take some time.

Re: selling my mac
Thanks for that clarification Ester. I was just about post asking that question, as I was fairly certain the 2012 macbook pros, minus the retna, were upgradable. You are always a great provider of information, so thanks again. - Original Message - From: "Esther" To: "MacVisionaries" Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2012 8:49 PM Subject: Re: selling my mac Hi Chris, Alex, Pam, and Others, Just a small correction: the 2012 models of the MacBook Pro in 13" size are upgradable in the same way that the 20122 MacBook Pros are. It is only the 15" MacBook Pros with Retina graphics that can't be upgraded among the 2012 MacBook Pro line. Like the MacBook Air,the memory on these units is soldered onto the logic board, so you need to decide how much memory you want when you purchase your system. The 15" Retina models also use proprietary SSD drives, and are hard to open up. While the Unibody MacBook Pros use small screws, and are not as easy to open and upgrade as the earlier models, there are standard kits for this available from Other World Computing and other sources, and you can upgrade both memory and hard drives. Anne's correct that the MacBook Air models are very nice to use, and I don't miss the lack of an optical drive in the MBA, but I can use the optical drive of another Mac if I need this. I will point out that you can use the SD slot on the MacBook Air (or on the MacBook Pro, for that matter), to add some additional storage capacity. There's a Kickstarter project called "The Nifty Mini-Drive" that has designed a MicroSD card adapter for the SD card slot in these devices. The idea is that it would sit flush with the side of your laptop, and you could insert micro SD cards that you purchase into the adapter to use as additional storage. This is more significant if you have a MacBook Air with an SSD drive that is only 128 GB or 256 GB than if you have a MacBook Pro, because being able to add a 64 GB (or larger, in future) micro SD card has more of an impact for storage, even if it's not giving you the SSD drive access speeds. Here's the Kickstarter link: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1342319572/the-nifty-minidrive The estimated delivery date is November. HTH.

Re: In search of accessible password vault
Hi, Thanks a lot for the details. I was about to start searching list archives to see if 1Password for iOS had been discussed. I too learned a lot about it from the mac power users podcasts. Dr. Carter's interview with Katie Floyd is where I first heard about there podcast and it is a great resource. Even though I am not the one who asked the question, you certainly answered the ones I had and I am going to buy 1password for iOS right now. It would be nice if you have any particular tips for using it on the iPhone or any things I should be aware of. I am trying the free windows version right now, but expect a new mac anytime nowso I won't be purchasing the windows license. Thanks - Original Message - From: "Paul Erkens" To: Sent: Monday, September 03, 2012 1:58 PM Subject: Re: In search of accessible password vault Hi, By the time of this writing, 1Password is accessible, as long as you stick with the app itself, and don't bother with its safari extension, other than auto filling in a login once you are on that page. You can easily google 1password, but to answer your questions: yes it is multi platform, it is for mac, windows and ios, probably android but I'm not sure of that, and it can sync via dropbox, amogn other ways. Having your encrypted keychain in dropbox means, that you manage your chain yourself, and it is not stored online somewhere. I have both the mac and the iphone version, and they are workable. If tiny things were improved in their interfaces, life would become a whole lot easier for VoiceOver users. But for now, it already works for all sorts of things, like your web logins, say, for the skype site, for your banking site, the vm ware site if you use that and all things similar, but there's a lot more. It can also hold identities. Difference with a login is that an identity is similar in that it is also a keychain element, but it obviously is made up of other fields. In an identity, you store your name, street city and zip code, phone number etc etc, and if a website asks for those, you can have 1password fill in some or all of that. The 1password app has essentially a simple interface, where you have a list of things on the left, such as logins, identities, secure notes, wallet items, software license keys and more, and if you click one of these things in the sidebar, which is where they all are, then that contents will appear on the right. If you open, for instance, the logins item from the sidebar, they appear on the right, in what VoiceOver calls an object list. This is simply a list view where you arrow up and down, to find the login you want. You can open or edit your login info from there. The same holds for all other items. If you want to add a software license for example, just go to the sidebar, find software licenses, stop interacting with the sidebar, and move over to the right. There you have an interactable object list with all your license items so far, if any, and to the right of that list, at least from a voiceover perspective, you then have an add item, button. Once the new dialog opens, you'll find that you can read all text fields in there. I'm still looking into several work arounds to get stuff into the interface, and yes for VoiceOver users, things have room for improvement. Where the smooth magic is already there for regular users, we'll have to wait for, or get involved in, more VoiceOver support. Small amendments can make a lot of difference for VoiceOver. I bought 1password and it serves my needs, although it is still clunky for us in some ways. For example. It has a strong password generator, which is handy on sites where you either change your existing login into a new login with a strong password, or where you create a new account. Of course, you can use the strong password generator just anywhere, like for apps on your mac, for your time capsule password if you have one, your wifi network etc, all strong passwords. The password generator creates an unguessable strong password consisting of letters numbers symbols etc, and the settings for that are just fine and readable inside the 1password app. But, generating a new strong password, unless someone can come up with an alternative, requires me to leave safari on the "create account" page, open the 1password app because you want to avoid the safari extension because of its lack of accessibility, and then unlock the 1password app, find the password generator in the sidebar, tweak its options, have your password generated, copy that to the blipboard, move back to safari, find the text field for your new password, paste it in, and hit create account on the site, hoping that a 1password question will pop up from its safari extension and remain readable without VoiceOver setting focus back to the site so that you can complete this dialog, asking to save this login for future use. It is very clear how the safari extension that c

In addition, because your virtual machine is just an image, it's easy to restore it from a backup. So you can see that thare are tradeoffs. After considering all of them, I'm willing to switch over to Bootcamp for the increased performance. I'll use Drop Box whenever I need to move folders from the Mac side to the Windows side.

Re: Two questions about virtual machines and a brief intro
Hello, My thanks to Kawal, Emilio and others for the answers. I will buy fusion and take the free copy of file maker pro when I buy my macBook. I appreciate the advice and comments. - Original Message - From: "Emilio" To: "MacVisionaries" Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2012 4:49 PM Subject: Re: Two questions about virtual machines and a brief intro Hello Damashe, First, if you are wanting to exicute the installation and full operation of Windows on the Mac, I would highly recommend VMware Fusion. Reviewing the archives will provide a thorough set of directions that will help you learn how to install Windows, as should the product web site. I'm not an expert and in no way consider myself highly technical, but I have been able to install and run Windows within 25 minutes of reading & following the instructions others have kindly posted. If you purchase Fusion, and insert a university into the college name you will get a 50% discount, which is a great thing. I have been able to install and effectively run Kurzweil 1000, as well as Duxbury 10.7. Moreover, after initial setup, JFW11 has run very well with no problems on my machine. Once you get your virtual machine configured, make a snapshot that you can refer to when you need to virtually reformat. :) Note you will need considerable hard drive space (at least I do). I have roughly 40GB set aside for my virtual machine. If you need any other help or if you wish to discuss this further feel free to reply - cheers.

Re: Is there really not a Save As option in Text Edit?
Yes there is, it's called save… ellipses means a dialog, the first thing it will speak is save as, thus save as is still there. Same with just closing a document in the do you wish to save dialog that comes up, you can title it and designate where you want it to go. Sounds like a save as to me even if it's not called that.

How about storing them in bookmarks bar, then just going throughout the list of them under the apple menu because at that point it's just a sub menu under bookmarks.

Cnage view to collom is the fast way, then you should just be able to move to the right of downloads folder and scroll down to the specific file then back out of interaction and then proceed on.

Re: Big step of Amadeus Pro 2 in terms of accessibility
Hi Jürgen! Ok, well it would be nice if there was a way to solo/ mute tracks with a shortcut key since it now can be a bit tricky to edit multi-tracking. However a nice feature in the latest update is that if you paste another track into a project ti goes to the start of the first track. I guess this can be very handy in some cases. But I will have to play with it some more, smiles. However, the manual of Amadeus is very poor written at least when it comes to getting used to new concepts. What Martin has done is to use lots of images to explain some of the concepts. But this does not (at least for me) work quite good. I have no sight at all. And there are som instances where I'm getting lost. An example is the explanation of how to loop something in Amadeus. Has anyone figured this out yet? I wish he would make the manual like the manual for Soundstudio because of the structure in this manual. Everything (as I read it) was mentioned in a very relaxed style and I could read about anything I wanted if I just looked at the menus first to find a topic which to me could be interesting to read about.

Re: anyone fooled with the new Amadeus Pro II yet?
Hi! I think it is just a matter of what we are used to. I use the method you're describing here. You can in fact delete a marker. I guess the command is: command-delete but I haven't checked yet.

Dropbox and growl
Hi! FOr some reason Growl and my Dropbox don't work together. I have looked in system preferences under Growl, and all seems to be fine. Has anyone seen this before?

Help with references in Pages 09
Hi! If this is kind of topic, then please e-mail me privately and I do apologize in advance. I'm writing an educational report, which has to contain some references to other publications according to the APA-standard. Is it possible to create these things in Pages? I know it is doable in other programs such as MS Word, but unfortunately I have not access to a version of it, which can insert the right APA-requirements . It can also create the reference list where it basically lists all sources such as books, websites etc. with their authors all correctly listed and formatted. What I do at this moment is: Typing every single cite and reference down manually. Which takes up a lot of my time, since I have to check that I do observe the rules of APA. How it handles the cites: The user can choose which type of source is relevant and then simply write the author, title etc. etc. and Word will insert the information according to the APA-standard. Thanks for your help in advance.

The userinterface in Skype 5
Hi! I've heard a few people mentioning this, but what was or is the issue with the interface of Skype 5? I've heard about some bugs which users have found. But to me the interface is pretty easy to figure out and use. Actually (as far as I understand it) the interfaces in Windows and the Mac version of Skype is almost the same. Interestingly enough the way VOiceover shows the interface makes more cense to me than the same interface in Windows does... What do you think is wrong with the latest versions of Skype regarding the user interface?

What I mean is: It is fair to move between tracks with a single key, but if there are many tracks I guess this could be a little hard to work out with any mistakes. Another question: Have some of you tried that after you click on the scroll area the insertion point is moved away from the location where it was before you clicked?

Hello! I have recently tried to find a workaround for the following: I have two tracks in a project and I want to edit one of them. The only way to do this from the keyboard is to press the letter n as in next to switch to the next track. I read on the maccessibility-website that there should be a way to select a specific track with voiceover. But I can't get this method to work. Have any of you any suggestions of an alternativ way to get around selecting tracks?

Reaper versus other sound editors on the mac
Hello guys! I just ran across the Reaper website. I haven't tested it yet due to a little amount of spare time. However, I think the idea of Reaper sounds great and I want to know if any one of you have given it a try? And if so, what was your experiences with it and what about Voiceover accessibility? And can you perhaps compare it to other products like Audacity or maybe Amadeus Pro? Thanks for your answers.

Re: Editing Tracks in Amadeus
Hi! DOes anyone use multitracking in Amadeus Pro? I have figured some of the basics out but I am still new to this area. I am planing doing a podcast where there should be at least three tracks. 1 my voice. 2 a music track (for intro and outro). 3. a source such as the system sounds or another device such as the Iphone. Now here is how I think the project shell be put together: 1. I will first need to record the track 1 and 3 (my voice and the thing I want to use). 2. I will need to let the music fade so the intro isn't covered by the music. 3. THe music fades completely out and won't come back until the outro kicks in. 4. FOr this reason I will need to insert silence (I suppose) to the music track so it won't come back before the outtro. I suppose I can select the portion in the voicetrack and then tell Amadeus to create silence up to that point in the music track as well? Here I would be glad if somebody know how to do this correctly or if you have some other helpful tips. 5. I have set things up here so I can record my voice and the track 3 into two files which can easily be pasted together but I still want two tracks so I have total control over the whole project. Another question: For us who can not see the picture of the project it might look a bit confusing if any track don't start at 0 seconds. Can we insert a bit of silence or is this no longer needed to calculate as I was used to when operating with single track editors? Or is this thought by how it might look just me and something which no one (and the sighted too) haven't to care about?

Re: Question about backup software
Hello Tyler! Intersting, I haven't tried Superduper yet, but I'm going to. Why did you choose Superduper instead of CCC? Of course I understand that about your drive but was that your only reason? As far as I understood CCC and superduper does the exact same things while we are dealing with backups right? Or does one of the two something which the second one doesn't? You mentioned e.g. the smart update feature in Superduper. So I am just curious, smiles. Best regards Thomas Den 11/03/2011 kl. 02.34 skrev Tyler wood: > I bought super duper.

Question about backup
Hello! I have a question about backing up my harddrive with OS X 10.6. How do I restore my preferences for my applications if I won't restore the complete OS? I am thinking of using Carbon copy cloner to this task, and it would save me a lot of time if I could migrate my preferences and mail accounts etc. but what do I do when Lion comes out? Do I need to start all over again? What did some of you do when SnowLeopard came out or even before SnowLeopard?

Re: Editing Tracks in Amadeus
Hi again! Hmm, delete silence only works on the start or at the end of the file sadly. I wish they would do something about that, so we could tell Amadeus to remove silence e.g. at -45 db and if it is longer than 0.5 miliseconds and then it could keep about 0.2 miliseconds of the original silence length. About the left and right bracket keys: There is a concept we need to get used to here. I suppose you have tried apps like Goldwave for Windows or perhaps Audacity? Anyway, you can do one of the following two things: 1. when playing the file you can press the letter p to drop a marker where at the spot of the file which you're hearing. 2. Here is the concept I mentioned before. Amadeus lets you move the playback and the editing (or insertion point) cursors independly. Then you will do the following: Play the file till the place which you want to select. Press space to pause the file. Then press command y to move the insertion point to the exact same place as the playback head as Amadeus calls it. Now hit the m key. 2. Press space again and pause it when you are at the end of your selection. Then repeat the same operation described above. Again, hit command-y to move the insertion point and then the m key. However, regardless of which of the two methods you prefer you'll need to do the following. Hit command- left arrow to select from the marker you are at to the previous marker. If you hit command right arrow it will select to the next marker. If you want to adjust the selection you can select or deselect with the letters a and s for moving the start a bit to the left (that's the a key) and to the right. That is the s key. D and f works exactly the same way as a and s do, except that this is for the end of the selection. I just saw in the selection menu that you can remove markers from the selection by pressing command-delete I use the moving insertion point option personally. Or you can remove all markers from the same menu. The manual could indeed need some more details. The owner have written some nice material in most cases. But sometimes he deals with pictures and he is assuming that the user are able to look at the picture. Therefor I am a bit lost in the manual sometimes because of this.

Re: Editing Tracks in Amadeus
Hello! I am trying to figure something out in Amadeus. It's like what you want to do. First of all let me explain how you select a specific track (or at least how I got it to work): 1. Open each file you want to use in your podcast. 2. They will come up as stand-alone-windows. What you need to do is to copy them to the clipboard and then into your original project. When you want to paste remember to press command-option-v so a new track is created. It will be created (as Jürgen wrote) where your are in the document, or rather where your insertion point is placed. Ok, now we got all the files into one project haven't we? Right, now we need to find out, how we can edit a single track. Actually there are two ways to do this: A The first one is to use Voiceover to select the track. You'll need to interact with the scroll area. Here you will find all your tracks. This is shown by the following things: the disclowser tryangle button which you can ignore. It's a graphical thing. What you're interested in is the edit box. Here you can type a name for your track, hopefully it makes it easier for you to figure out which track you are at. NOTE! When you paste a new track into an existing project remember that this track is selected for editing. Sorry, we were talking about naming the tracks and selecting them for editing. Simply find the edit box with the name of the track you want to edit. Stop interaction with the scroll area and them hit voiceover-command-f5 toroute the mouse cursor to the scroll area. Then press voiceover-shift-space bar to click. Now your track is selected for editing. You could also simply press the letter n as in november but this only shows which track you are at, so I would use the method described above. I would like to get in touch with you off-list. I have only used Amadeus for three months or so, but I suppose we both want total control over as much as possible when doing our editing? Perhaps we can help each other a bit as time goes by.

Re: Problem with the latest version of Audio Hijack Pro
Hi Darcy! Ok, I guess the script suggestion is what would work out for me, sadly I don't know anything about Apple script and how to create this kind of things. Have you any experience in making these scripts? If you do, I would be glad if I may contact you off-list. Thanks for your answer.

Re: Problem with the latest version of Audio Hijack Pro
Hi! Sorry, Ricardo, I have not a suggestion to your problem. However I found another issue with the app: I want to record the system output to a single file and my mic to another file so I can put them together in an external editor which supports multitracking. My problem is that I can not find any way to record multiple sessions at the same time. In other words: I can record both files but the length of them are different because they can't start recording with one press of the record button. DOes anyone have a suggestion to fix this? i Know I could record it all into one file, but I want to have total control over both recordings.

About audio editing on the Mac
Hi! I am new to audio editing on the Macintosh platform. I have access to Garageband version 6, Amadeus Pro and Audacity at this moment. I have been working mostly with Amadeus Pro in its latest version (I think it is version 1.4.5). The purpose of this mail is not to judge an application over anothet but I am confused and I suppose I need some clarification on how to perform some of the following tasks: 1. I need to create voiceovers where there are two tracks. Track A is an instrumental track (background music). Track B is the speech-track. I want to let the music go down to a certain volume and then the speech kicks in. When the speech has finished the musictrack should then go up to the volume which it was before the fadeing took place. I have not in any of the apps mentioned above found an easy way to do this, because I want the fade to be pretty smoothly. 2. I am new to all this multitrack-stuff but I guess there are some possibilities that aren't availoble when using single tracks editors. Have anyone found some tips or tricks to edit a specific track without accidentally deleting something from a track which was complete? I do apologize if this list wasn't the right one to ask these kinds of questions. But thanks for your answers in advance Best regards Thomas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Gmail via Pop?
Works pretty good most of the time. If you want to see copies of messages going out you may wish to modifyyour user name in the acount description. check below will have it isolated for you. recent:u...@gmail.com So the eddited user name you will see your mail you send to lists, because it doesn't always work based on u...@gmail.com alone. It's a gmail thing works with Mozilla Thunderbird on windows too. In fact heard about it on another list which is deffinitly predominantly windows users, but also worked here too. It will send you all you send out from that acount but then you know it went out. You should be able to do that simply by finding the acount in the table, clicking back to acount description or general tag, not mailbox behaviors or advance and eddit it in there in the user name, and should be good to go.

Re: scanning
What happens when you push the scan button the machine itself? That's what I do, then open the saved imagewith Abby then do my conversions, but my Kodak has a fairly accessible scangear, so I can interact with it and tell it where to save it and what file type I want which I now have them as defaults so the only thing I need to do with that is to just name the file, or leave it's on there. Push the button on machine and computer starts talking and I am still using Tiger, so your later aditions should work, the only thing I can't actually do is to fax something, part of that is missing since again I have Tiger here. Save up for a new machine I guess, maybe before the year is up can have me a new cat around here barring some sort of house repair, which I'm sure this place will come up with some for me to have to fix and pay for this year *lol.* On Jan 28, 2011, at 3:19 AM, Stephanie Mitchell wrote: There isn't anything else apart from file that I can tell. How do i get my scanner to work? i'm using a printer and scanner in one. The printer works fine withthe mac, so how do i get the scanning to work. Steph - Original Message - From: Geoff Waaler I too am using tthe tryal version of FineReader express and have never gotten it to work, so this suggestion may be worth every penny you paid for it :). Disclaimer aside, I believe you need to select your scanner in the menu associated with "get images from". If your only choice is "file" then either you don't have a Twane scanner, or the software supporting your scanner is not recognized by ABBYY. Once your scanner is selected, pressing a button such as: "convert to text document" should activate your scanner. Except on my system where it consistently hangs up even though I have a twane compatible device. Hope you get further than I have so far.

Re: Solona nearly never available lately
Trust me, your hearing doesn't have to be compromised to screw those things up, mine's pretty good, but a certain large searchengine and it's e-mail service is just bad because of all of the backwards junk they play with it.Wouldn't say my hearing is great but by the numbers it's average and do have a pretty good ability to zone out a lot of noise and focus on what I need to hear, but some of those as I said are just bad.
