Hey there Ishe.

 

Do I need to pay for the developer ID before I can download the SDK?

 

Thanks a lot for the enthusiastic response. I'm absolutely nuts with
anticipation of getting the Mac. I even had a dream about it last night. I
just know it's going to be a very pleasant and positive experience.

Hi T,

 

Sure, you will love it the day the Mac will hit your doorstep. VO has a way
to show that the word is in all caps. You have many ways to know when a
letter is in caps, either by the raising of the pitch or a tone. Even
deleting words, it will tell you in a low pitch that is unmistakable.

 

Well, about Objective C. Just like all the derivatives of C, it is case
sensitive. I hope you won't have any problems here if you'd been used to C,
Java, C++ or even the C# on Windows. XCode is the equivalent of Visual
Studio on Mac, except that if you want to develop apps, you can also develop
those for the iOS devices. It is free to download from the Apple site once
you are registered as a developer. However, you only have to pay $100 to
Apple so that you can get the developer ID and be able to put your apps in
the App Store.

 

Wish you all the best in your journey. Know what? You will find that you
will convert full time to Mac before you're aware of it. You will use it for
the job and yeah, about you not being a fan, you will be a zealous fanatic
of Apple products before the end of four weeks: plus r minus!

 

Cheers,

 

Ishe

Hi all. I'm Tony Hernandez, and I just joined today. I see from the archives
that this group has been around for quite some time. I just ordered a not so
new MacBook and haven't even received it yet, but I hope to hit the ground
running with Voice Over. I can already see this group is full of kind
people. I hope to be able to help others soon as well.

 

Now, of course, I do have a question. Proofreading is part of my job, and
although I do have a, dare I say it, Windows PC to do it with, I might
switch everything to the Mac at some point in the future. I am able to use
the windows screen reader to tell when something is either in all caps or in
proper case. Can this be done with Voice Over? I'll probably find out the
answer to this in due course as I play with the Voice Over Utility, etc.,
but I've been itching to know this for a long time. I might need to know
about it if Objective C has any case-sensitive keywords or variable syntax,
etc. Of course if it doesn't give that feedback, it's far from a deal
breaker. I have no need to use my Mac for my regular job.

 

I'm very excited to get a Mac. I've been salivating over them since Mike
Arrigo demonstrated voice Over. I already have an iPod Touch. the most
challenging thing so far for me regarding Apple is resisting the temptation
to be the ever-criticized fan boy. Lol. Hard not to be loyal to a mainstream
company that would make its own screen reader, do a wonderful job on it, and
include it with its $30 operating system at no extra charge.
