Re: Word 2016 for Mac and DBT

Don't know, but there is a new contender out there with Braille Blaster being delivered by APH for free. I expect the Duxbury system costs thousands. Best Wishes, Jonathan On 12 December 2017 at 04:38, E.T. wrote: >Since DBT for Mac is out of beta, I am interested to know how well it > work

Re: Word 2016 for Mac and DBT

Dbt does not cost thousands. It never has. I have no clue about this so-called new contender. But Duxberry for windows at least, has been the standard forever. I think the Mac version is a little bit cheaper than the Windows version, probably around $500 which is certainly not cheap. But it’s no

I’ve been having this issue as well, but don’t even see this option anywhere. There’s usually an option to e-mail it to yourself after you download them, but the only download option I find within this app just takes me to the app store where I find one of their sponsored apps, so I’m starting

Re: Hi all

Hi, Before you put them into your Wish List thing, do they say "Available on Prime"? If not, then I'm guessing that the reason you can't watch them is that they're either not available on Prime yet, or you need a higher level subscription. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On De

Re: Word 2016 for Mac and DBT

Free is not always cheaper. But it may take me a while to scrape up $695 for DBT so if APH releases their app sooner, I certainly will try it. DBT for Mac will use the same files that were produced with the Windows version. DBT for Mac also can work on documents exported from MS Word.

iTunes rating question

Hi folks, Is there a fast way to change the rating on a song in iTunes? I currently have to select the song in the table then go into info and details and then find the rating and change it and then save. On previous versions I opened a context menu on a song selected rating and updated it.

Re: iTunes rating question

I did write a one line AppleScript to "Love" the currently playing iTunes song. If this is not a granular enough adjustment, a modification could probably be made to the script. Once you have rated a song, what do you end up doing with the rating? Thanks, Jonathan On Tue, Dec 12, 2017 at 12:24

Re: iTunes rating question

Hi, Not sure what's happening there for you. The "Rating" item is still in the Contextual menu for me. I use Song view in my playlists if that makes any difference and I am running the latest versions of MacOS and iTunes. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On Dec 12, 2017, at 10:

The APH version uses some kind of XML documents, but does do much of what DBT does, just a bit more technical. Devin Prater Assistive Technology Instructor in Training JAWS, Microsoft Outlook, Excel, Word, and Powerpoint certified by World Services for the Blind > On Dec 12, 2017, at 10:39 AM,

I gave your configuration a try to see if it made things any better. It does, but there’s still a tendency to clip off the first bit of sound after a pause in navigation. My wife likes the system so I may make due with it. Running everything through the TV at least seems to have cured the uni

The only issue I've noticed with sonos is that like tonight I opened the app to find a software update for both the speakers and the sonos app. The sonos speaker firmware update causes the sound to switch off until the update is completed, ok so it's only a couple of minutes but it can be ann
