Re: oldschool mac nostalgia

2009-04-23 Thread Krister Ekstrom

When i used the mac to connect to bbses in the beginning of the 90-s,  
there were basically two mailers available for Fidonet, and it was  
Formula 1, which many used at that time and Tabby which was kinda hard  
to set up and make it work. I don't know how the more expensive bbs  
systems like Telefinder or First class handled the frontend mailing  
though.

readiris help

2009-04-23 Thread christos hux

as suggested to me via a reply I did try interacting with the vertical  
scroll bar & nothing happened by scrolling to the very top or bottom  
the status of the continue button never changed from its dimmed  
status. This is very frustrating to spend money on a application to  
help you be more independent & its not useable. Maybe I can use it in  
the short future as a upgrade path to the mac version of omnipage pro  
x when I have more funds to use.

Watching and recording tv on the mac.

2009-04-23 Thread Jesper Holten
Hi all.
Last friday I got my Imac and I am pretty happy about everything. But I really 
would love two things.
I have installed eye tv 3.1 on the system. Then I am able to watch tv. However, 
I really would love to make scheduled recordings of tv shows. Any Idea to 
accomplish that? I use a fire dtv digital tv cable converter with a cam module. 
I also would like to get the epg program guide information if possble. What can 
I do?
Is Plex accessible?
Or can frontrow do the trick, and in that case how?

Best regards, Jesper.

Re: readiris help

2009-04-23 Thread Anne Robertson

Hello Christos,

ReadIris and Omnipage are from different companies, so anything you  
paid to the ReadIris people won't count towards Omnipage Pro. In any  
case, Nuance appear to have abandonned development of Omnipage for the  
Mac, so it wouldn't be worth your while getting it. It certainly won't  
work with Snow Leopard as it is an old carbon application.

As for ReadIris, you may have to enter a special code which ties it to  
one specific computer. This is certainly the case for the copy I have.  
Unfortunately, I can't remember how I installed it, but it wouldn't  
surprise me if I had help from my sighted husband.

So it looks as though sighted help is your best way forward, galling  
as that may be!

Good luck,

Anne

Re: installing readiris help

2009-04-23 Thread Justin Harford

This is a rather tricky part.  Sometimes finding the scroll bar,  
routing the mouse to it, and scrolling it down with the mouse is the  
best way.  If this doesn't work I have found also going through the  
print process just short of wasting the paper also works.  But it does  
take a bit of prodding to make it go but you only have to do it once  
thank goodness.

get
this thing canceled? I tried calling 18007672775 and saying Mobileme for
what I needed support for, but that thing just says to go online for 
some
kind of chat that I really doubt is accessible. Is there an easy way to
get
rid of it besides canceling the debit card?

Thanks.

Hi,

Tangerine Theatre is a project that is being hosted by VIPBC.org.  
Unfortunately it isn't finished but it will do what you want.

Thanks,
Alex,

Downloading unplayed podcasts in iTunes...

2009-04-23 Thread Mike

Hi all:

I have recently subscribed to a caouple of podcasts which have back
epasodes.
How do I download and play the back epasodes? I see them in my list
but when I press enter or the space bar, nothing happens.
They are listed as undownloaded.

Thanks all:

Mike

Re: Watching and recording tv on the mac.

2009-04-23 Thread John J Herzog
Alex,
Where do we find all of the projects you speak about? When I go to 
www.vipbc.org 
, I find only I-speak, and an X-chat program that says it was released  
in 2006. Is there a special URL to check out the progress of things  
like raspberry reader, tangereen theater, your alarm program, etc?

Thanks for the clarification,

John

Re: Downloading unplayed podcasts in iTunes...

2009-04-23 Thread Jessi Rathwell

hey Mike,
if you hit contextual menu on them (VO shift m) there should be a  
choice in there that says "download podcast" or something. VO space on  
that and it'll download the episode. then you can hit enter or space  
to play it.
peace and positivity
Jessi
