Re: Open Twitter space is from my iPhone.

Hi,
The compose tweet button has actions associated with it, so if you select 
actions in the rotor and swipe up/down you should find create a new space.
Let me know if that doesn't work for some reason.

Re: open drive app

[Brad Snyder]

This is really very simple.

1.  Open your Safari browser and place focus on the address field using CMD + L.
2.  Type in the following search:  "OpenDrive for Mac download”, without the 
quotes.
3.  This will provide a number of search result from your default Search 
engine, usually Google, unless you have specified a different default search 
engine
4.  From the list of search results, I picked:  
https://www.opendrive.com/opendrive-for-mac 
.
5.  On this page, there is a link labeled "Download App”.  Select this link and 
the installer will be downloaded to your Downloads folder.
6.  With Finder as the active application,  open the Downloads folder using CMD 
+ OPT + L.
7.  In the Downloads folder you will find the installer titled “setup.pkg”.
8.  Open the installer using CMD + O or CMD + DownArrow.  You will see a dialog 
asking if you want to run this application and you should respond “Continue”.
9.  Follow the instructions to install the application.
10.  Once installed, you will find the application in your Applications folder. 
 Open the Applications folder using CMD + SHIFT + A, locate the OpenDrive 
application and use CMD + O or CMD + DownArrow to start the application.

That’s it.

Re: Open Drive on a Mac

[Lorie McCloud]

it's a cloud storage program like dropbox. a lot of people on the sharing lists 
are using it. I tried it 2 years ago and had a lot of trouble with it but now I 
hear they've got it straightened out for Mac so I'm trying it again. you get 5 
gig of free space. they also have paid plans. check it out at:
"www.opendrive.com <http://www.opendrive.com/>"

Re: Open Private Browsing Safari Window

Hello, when Safari is already launched, I see this option now with VO-Shift-M 
however, I was looking for an option before Safari is launched.  Where I could 
start a Safari session with a private window.

Thanks,

Yes there is a new private window item in the jump list of the doc. Try hitting

Re: open windows and folders

Hi there
I never use icon view for anything, but I do like  list view for some things  
and column view for other things. For instance, when I am in finder and want to 
look at my files or call up one, I like column view. When I was using windows, 
I never did use column view.

Re: open windows and folders

In Yosemite, at least on my Mac (the one I’m on now), Finder / Preferences / 
General has a check box that determines whether new folders are opened in new 
windows or new tabs. I have it unchecked, so that folders open in new windows.

Re: open windows and folders

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi Lorrie 
I think I understand what you’re saying, but I close windows all the time 
before I finish the copying process. It works fine for me. So like when I do 
command c to copy, a lot of times I press command w and then later press 
command v to paste. It works anyway even though I have pressed command w for 
closing the window. I suspect there is a way to control things by going to 
Preferences in Finder with command comma, but I haven’t explored that.

Re: Open Office 3

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi guys
I had the memory in my Mac  doubled so that now I have 8 GB. It seems to me 
that my numbers program has been running better. I haven't noticed it getting 
it self warm music keyboard input. Also haven't heard the fan come on anymore 
since I did that.

 Hey all, In my eternal quest to learn more and more about
 accessibility I have come across Open Office 3. I know I have seen it
 mentioned here on the boards before, but wanted to see if anyone had
 any recent comments on it? I primarily use Pages and Numbers now, and
 since doing my install haven't even installed Microsoft Office back on
 my mac due to it not working with Voiceover. The only real problem I
 have been having is with Numbers and it crapping out with Voiceover
 when working with large spreadsheets. Does Open Office 3 work well
 with Voiceover and spread sheets? Does it actually have keyboard
 shortcuts that will let you do a find or a search? Any thoughts is
 greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Open Office 3.4.0 not usable

[Steve Holmes]

That's too bad too.  When I'm on Linux using Orca, Libreoffice
generally works pretty well.  To me, LibreOffice and OpenOffice are
the most powerful non Microsoft office products out there.  iWorks is
3 years old and God knows if it is going to be updated or not and with
OpenOffice inaccessibility, I gues if one is serious about office
productivity, then she better either stick to Windows or try out
Linux.  I don't get the impression that the iWorks suite is really
good for heavy office power users.

It's also unfortunate that this is a regression. It used to work pretty

Re: Open Office 3.4.0 not usable

[Steve Holmes]

When I first heard that OpenOffice was really good with OS X, it was
probably during the Snow Lepeard days; it was an older podcast so when
I began hearing about all these breakages, I was most disppointed. I'm
also somewhat dismayed that it has been over nine months and it's
still broken.  Mountain Lion will be along fairly soon and then where
will OO be? Probably require even more retrofitting to get things
right.

In the meantime, it works really good with Orca on Linux.

Re: open dlc files and download.

Re: open with?

[Jon Cohn]

You can start textedit and open the program. I don't know about setting up a 
default but if it is possible it would be the same basic process as for PDF 
files.  Also there is the command-line (terminal) command open

so to open file funnybone 
open -a textedit funnybone 

will open the file in textedit.

Re: Open attachements in rtfd files

[Chinyoka on Macbook]

RTFD files are just rich text format with graphics, so unless any other appp 
was set to open it, it should open using  TextEdit by default. Just press 
Command+O and TextEdit should load the document. 

Other alternatives could be just opening the context menu and navigate to Open 
With submenu and choose the appropriate app. This is only in case you want to 
use another program that associates itself with RTFD like Pages or Bean.

That's my suggestion and hope it helps.

Re: Open attachements in rtfd files

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Ishe,

what I actually want to do is opening the attached file. The rtfd file itselve 
has been opened by Textedit of course. But I can't figure out a way to open the 
attachment with VoiceOver.

Re: Open attachements in rtfd files

[Chinyoka on Macbook]

Hi Jürgen

Okay, What I do is just scroll to the end of the message with the attachment. I 
just hit the RETURN key on the name of the attachment and it will open. 
Another way If I don't want to read the whole message is just press Command+Y 
to view the attachment in Quick Look, and to save the attachment as a file on 
its own, I simply go to File-Save Attachments... and activate that.

I don't know of a keystroke for VO for opening attachments, I hope some 
knowledgeable folk here might help with this one. 

Cheers,

Ishe

Re: Open attachements in rtfd files

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Ishe,

that works in Mail but not in Textedit. I've never seen a possibility to save 
an attachement in Textedit and CMD + Y doesn't work too.

But thanks for your efforts.

Re: Open Office 3.2.1 released

[Barry Hadder]

I wouldn't hole my breath on that.  From what I understand from their bug 
tracker, the developers have no idea how to fix that at this time.

I can't remember actually what the case number was, but if I find it, I'll post 
it for anyone interested in keeping up with this.  Personally, I think that 
IWork is vastly farther along as accessibility gos, so I'm far more interested 
in Apple cleaning up what they have.

I have Open Office; in fact, the main reason I downloaded it was for the

Re: open office query

Hello Claudio,

iWork09 is over 90% accessible with VoiceOver.

Pages works very well for most things, but dynamic fields such as automatically 
updated paragraph numbers are not readable with VO.

I've worked successfully with Keynote and know others who use Numbers regularly.

Cheers,

Anne

Yes, Pages can track changes but I find it horrible to navigate and understand 
when I do that.

I haven't used Word since Word5 so don't know how it works these days.

 Hello Claudio,
 
 iWork09 is over 90% accessible with VoiceOver.
 
 Pages works very well for most things, but dynamic fields such as 
 automatically updated paragraph numbers are not readable with VO.
 
 I've worked successfully with Keynote and know others who use Numbers 
 regularly.

RE: Open Firmware

Hi,

 

Do you use an older Mac? OpenFirmware is used on computers with Power PC 
processors, while Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) is used in the 
Intel-based Macs. So if you use an Intel-based Mac, this won't work.

Hi guys,


You can get access to Open Firmware by holding Command-Option-O-F down as soon 
as you power on your Macintosh. Here, you can get information about installed 
RAM, your device tree and so-forth. You can also simulate an arbitrary size of 
RAM less than the total installed RAM in your actual machine. You can also 
disable RAM sticks in your computer, though other RAM sticks will run as before 
except those that are disabled.


Here is my question.


While you can run a telnet service  within Open Firmware, I am guessing there 
is no accessibility at this point. Is the only way to actually Telnet through 
to your Mac via another computer so you can receive the text? I'm guessing 
that's the solution.

Re: Open Firmware

Hi,

Oops, I use EFI. I entirely forgot about Open Firmware only working on the 
Power-based Macs. Is it still possible to get access to the actual EFI, though, 
as you can with Open Firmware? I'm hoping it is, since you can do some quite 
interesting things.

Re: Open Firmware

[Nicolai Svendsen]

Hi,

Intel Macs do not have Open Firmware. That was a mistake on my part. EFI 
doesn't seem to have an interface, though I suppose that the Boot Manager is 
the only exception capable of directly accessing the EFI. The only thing EFI 
does have is Legacy BIOS support so that operating systems requiring a BIOS to 
load such as Microsoft Windows are capable of doing so. Hopefully, Apple will 
create a direct way of accessing the Extensible Firmware Interface at some 
point, but it doesn't look like it is possible right now. I'm sure it provides 
the same features and even more than the Open Firmware for the Power-based 
Macs, so that's very exciting if it can be directly accessed someday.

Re: Open Firmware

I thought the EFI exists as a hidden partition on the hard drive, so if I had 
to replace the hard drive with one Apple didn't bless with this, how will the 
machine even know what to do when powered on with a blank new drive, waiting to 
be reinstalled? I'm surprised EFI only exists on mac's. I think it's needed for 
Linux sometimes because I hear of a USB Dongle version called EFI X when I

Re: Open Firmware

[Nicolai Svendsen]

Hi,

The EFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an 
operating system and a platform firmware. The Extensible Firmware Interface is 
a much larger, much more complex OS-like replacement for the old BIOS firmware 
present in at least all IBM personal computers. The EFI really takes care of a 
lot of things, including removing the need for a dedicated boot loader. It also 
has a lot of capabilities for disk support, drivers, and so-forth. I believe it 
does have a shell environment, in fact, however it is rarely used and only used 
to execute other EFI applications. It's really extensive, and it has a lot of 
possibilities. I believe you can even develop for EFI to test drivers and such.

Re: Open Office 3.1 released

[John Panarese]

 I think the problem occurs when one opens existing documents that  
were not created in Open Office.  At least, this has been my experience.

At least it sounds like things got better, even if it wasn't noted in

  OK, perhaps they have changed things in this version?  I just did  
 some testing myself with random documents and the only time I'm seeing  
 a problem is if tables are included in the document, such as the

 seems as if you can highlight large chunks of text.

Re: Open Office 3.1 released

I've not used Writer but the basic stuff actually works reasonably well. 
I only tried out the table stuff because that's where I got stuck in the 
past. I can select ranges of text, check spelling and other stuff ok. 
Since it's free you can download a copy and give it a whirl.

Press VO enter to start selecting, and VO enter again to stop.  It

Doesn't work in ooo3.0, or rather it works up to the next paragraph at
