Re: help with latest version of Itunes
I think you might have more luck with this question on a list specifically for iTunes and the iPod. I usually send people to the Portable Player Portal at http://www.hartgen.org/blindipod.html, but that site doesn't appear to be up right now. You can try sending a message to blindipod-requ...@freelists.org with the word subscribe in the subject line.

In the previous version I'd see a context menu where JAWS would read choices like music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, before I'd get to the edit boxes to input the artist and title. There'd also be a check box to search for songs of a higher quality. I'm not seeing these options now. All I see are fields for title and artist, and a check box for searching for songs to be made into ring tones. How do I get the other options to show up if they are still in the latest version? http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/clickToGive/home.faces?siteId=3 email and MSN: tlsy...@yahoo.com To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org -- Christopher cchalt...@austin.rr.com To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: converting an .m4b file to MP3 without using iTunes in Windows XP
Hi, I was able to convert some m4b files to mp3 with GoldWave.

Re: multi-tracking software.
Multiquence is not accessible at all. For professional purpuses, Jonathan is right, gold standard is Sonar. But otherwise, don't forget n-track. I've never used it, however many blind people say that it's a great program. Jonathan Mosen said the following on 14.05.2009 01:20: Yes that one's called Multiquence. I don't know how accessible it is, Sonar seems to be the gold standard for multitrack and accessibility although Audacity is one to watch. For a really good implementation of sound on sound, which is what Sound Forge, Goldwave etc do, Studio Recorder is amazing since you can actually hear what you're recording over.

Re: sonar
Hello Jed, Sonar works with both Jaws and Window-Eyes. However, both have there advantages and disadvantages. Window-Eyes will not work well with the event viewer. However Jaws does. Also, the JSonar scripts for Jaws are open source. I can't remember the website, but I'm sure you can find it.

CD Ripping Software?
Hi. There was a time when I would have chosen Easy CD DA Extractor for ripping Cds. But I'm not getting anywhere with version 11 much less version 12, and I haven't received a response when seeking advice from the program's developer. I think now that I would prefer to move on to another program. With that in mind, what would you recommend for a ripper that yields good results while getting along with a screen reader.

Hi. Actually 2 things are happening here. What I'm doing is to right click on the drive where my CD is waiting to be ripped. Easy CD DA Extractor comes up, but it doesn't show my tracks. In fact, it shows nothing except for all empty fields. I can find nothing to indicate which drive has focus for the program and trying each drive yields the same results. Just out of curiosity I pressed F8 to begin the rip, but nothing happens. No error shows whatsoever. The program appears to be waiting for me to do something, but I can't see what that might be.

Re: converting an .m4b file to MP3 without using iTunes in Windows XP
Switch can do this. It comes as trialware, but after the trial period, you can still use it for free with some limitations. I would guess that converting M4A files would still work. Note that it won't break DRM. You can find out more on Switch from the FAQ, including a link to download the trial, at http://www.nch.com.au/switch/faq.html#ABA.
