Re: Accessible software midi keyboard.
Hi Alison. The program was called Keyboard Piano. Not sure if it's still available but you could try Google to find it.

Re: can't get games on game day audio
John Is your wife (or someone else available) sighted that could look at the screen to determine what exactly is going on. Perhaps Silverlight isn't actually installed (even though you believe it is) or there may be some other msg popping up somewhere that may serve as a clue as to why nothing is happening. For starters, what I would do is manually reinstall silverlight (rather than the automated install) just to be certain the thing is properly installed.

can't get games on game day audio
I can no longer listen to games on the MLB, Game Day Audio. This problem started last Saturday. I installed Silver Light, hoping that would solve the problem. I did a Windows repair, but didn't help. After clicking on a radio station, the game will not load. Sometimes, I get the log on screen and sometimes not. I usually get lines like, waiting on mlb.mlb.com, read gdx.mlb.com and some others. Refreshing the page doesn't help. I have tried closing the player window and clicking the station again. I called MLB support and they don't know the answer. The games come in on my wife's pc but not mine. I have tried both Fire Fox and Explorer. WE have a dsl connection and Belkin router. My connection is wired and my wife's, wireless. I'm running XP home and my wife, XP Pro. Any ideas for help? John -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG.

I have partial vision and found that the stone works sort of like this. I say sort of, to cover my uncertainty, but this has been my experience: Hold zen plus so the flat screen faces you and is on the left side. On top left is an audio out jack. Bottom left is the USB connector. Top right has a rocker switch. Press this on its right side and hold it to turn it on. I'm not quite certain what pressing it on the left side does. I often found that, after not pressing buttons for a while, the first key press is merely a wake up call and does nothing, so keep that in mind. Now, facing you on the right is the more or less standard joy control, a circle with a button in its center. The center button brings up a menu. When this menu is active the right and left edges of the circle move thru things like file play, radio, recorder, and who knows what else. But the files play mode I believe is furthest left. When you think you have the mode you want, press the center button to confirm your choice. So, assuming you start playing files, press the center button, then press the right edge of the ring to move to radio, then press center again and the radio should be playing. Now use the left and right buttons, you know what I mean, to tune to the station you want. Experiment with this, because tapping gets different results from pressing and holding, I think. Now, to get back to playing files, press that center button. Remember, you might have to tap it twice because the first tap just says hello to the unit. Once it wakes up, press the left button and confirm with center. As for the other modes, I'm not going there. I only know that I've accidentally recorded my voice but cannot pin down how.

Attention Window-Eyes 6.1: Feedback needed Replay AV 8

But if I press alt f the file menu appears in W-Eyes magically? Also Window-Eyes reads out two help menus when their should be only one such help menu. To make matters even worse the wrong options are located within most menu. So if I tell a user in my tutorial or Applian tells a Window-Eyes user to go to the Record menu and choose the option - the user will not hear that option in that menu because its in another incorrect menu.

Do you hear these with W-Eyes? Do not use the keyboard shortcut for the tools menu. Just use your alt key and locate the tools pulldown and go down.

High Albert, Thank you for posting this! I have a cell phone that doubles as an MP3 player, but I'm not to happy with it. So I am looking for another MP3 player and or Ipodder. Preferencely, 1 that will play lossless audio files such as WMA or wave. But it has to be user friendly for me, a blind person. So I will read this review while hitting both the internet stores and loco stores alike as well. My best regards.

Vyzex for Pocket Pod Questions
Hi all, I recently got a pocket pod to add to my guitar rig. I want to download the Vyzex editor for it, but I don't know if it's accessible and I can't create an account on the site. Is there anyone who's created an account and downloaded Vyzex successfully? If so how accessible with screen access is it?

I wouldn't count on lossless files with anything but the larger capacity players. Try for 320 KBPS. mp3 files. I rip all my stuff to lossless as well but I have to convert to a smaller size with my players. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DJ DOCTOR P Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008 8:18 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: NBP-Announce: GENERAL: A Pocketful of Sound, by Anna Dresner High Albert, Thank you for posting this!

Re: FW: NBP-Announce: GENERAL: A Pocketful of Sound, by Anna Dresner
wow, I just wish this book was available in something like regular ascii text or html so I could read it on my computer or something. The only ways it seems to be available are on portabook cd or download and regular braille. It'd be sooo much nicer if it was in daisy format or something at least?

Re: New I or J tunes
Hi Gordon. Larry here. Steve posted the original jTunes update message, forwarded from another list. So far as I know, it's still in the coming soon category. this post concerning the updated version of the program is actually the first that I've heard of it. Do you own the previous version? can you tell me anything about cost and such? To date, as far as I know, this application represents the only means by which a blind person can successfully navigate iTunes. For whatever my info might be worth, I asked the Window-Eyes folks if their soon to be released version 7.0 would offer similar iTunes support, but a representative indicated preference to withhold comment until the release of Window-Eyes 7.0. Certainly their privellege, but it leaves me uncertain as to whether to purchase jTunes straight away. At any rate, since I am presently reviewing screen reader options for reasons that do not apply to this list, I am very interested in jTunes. I have jaws 8 on board and jTunes claims to work with Jaws 6 through 9. If I happen to see news of an official release before it is posted by another member, I'll certainly pass along what I learn.
