Re: Reverse directory
This is great! A bit dated but still very useful. I'd been on the understanding that reverse look-ups in Oz were not permitted. They're not as far as I know. Funny what happens when things get served overseas... -- == == = = Antony N.

Re: speech and window weirdness
The VoiceOver has been turned on, this can be disabled by Apple + F5 I believe, you may want to check your 'Keyboard and Mouse' settings under System Preferences! :D The kids found this at work this year, another thing to lock down in the SOE.. Doh.. Thanks, Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: wamug@wamug.org.au Subject: RE: speech and window weirdness Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2008 14:16:50 +1100 Good afternoon wamuggers In the last few days some weirdness has crept into my system. The speech recognition is off but every window that is opened or app or keystroke such as volume down, brings Vicky's voice saying everything that appears or announcing every keystroke. At the same time this started windows have a black box around them and sometimes fields or buttons as well. I reinstalled Leopard but weirdness persists. Has anyone experienced something like this or know what to do please?

I believe the reason it is illegal in Australia was that Desktop Marketing Systems Pty Ltd was ruled to have broken copyright on the Telstra phone directory: http://www.artslaw.com.au/artlaw/archive/01Copyrightprotectionofdatabases.asp Interestingly Telstra used to offer such a service itself: http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/journals/PLPR/1994/26.html Have fun, Shay -- === Shay Telfer Perth, Western Australia Technomancer The love of liberty is the love Opinions for hire [POQ] of others; the love of power is http://newtonslore.com/fnord the love of ourselves - Hazlitt -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml Guidelines - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml Unsubscribe - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Britannica 2008 Ultimate Reference Suite in Leopard
Hi Wamugers, Has anyone installed and been able to open Britannica 2008 Ultimate Reference Suite in OSX10.5.1? I installed the above on my MacBook Pro Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz Processor Speed / 3GB Memory / 800 MHz Bus Speed / 160GB HD (79GB free), running OSX10.5.1 Leopard. I installed Britannica into my Administrator Account which has 'read/ write' access. Installation was completed successfully. I have the Install Log if anyone wishes to see it. But, when I try to open the '2008 Ultimate Reference Suite' I get a Java Error: Cannot Launch Java Application Uncaught exception in main method: java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredElementlmpl.getText Content()Ljava/lang/String; Which is different to the error on their support at the following link: http://support.britannica.com/common/194.htm Britannica has been installed in my Administrator's Account with 'read/ write' privileges. I don't profess to know anything about Java but to me it seems to be a problem with Britannica 2008 Java 5.0. Mac OS X Leopard comes with J2SE 5.0 preinstalled, based on JDK 1.5.0_13_b05 I've sent emails to Britannica support in Australia, United Kingdom USA no replies as yet ;-) I've also searched and searched the Internet for any solution to no avail. So I'm now pinning my hopes on WAMUG to solve this problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
