setting new blutooth device doesn't work with voiceover
Hello, Somebody had already posted on this subject a few days ago. I'm trying to set up a new bluetooth device (my mobile phone) but when I launch the assistant under blutooth, the table which should show me my phone, is empty. And yet, I did manage to send afile to my mobile via bluetooth so my mobile must have been detected. Anybody has had a similar experience?

Re: query about i tunes essentials
Hi Scott, I think you can get a playlist of songs listed as Madonna's iTunes Essentials, but the songs are supposed to be listed in order of "importance", which is why there is no simply sort order by album or alphabetical list of song names. The "Essentials" are basically playlists typically set up by artist, genre, or other listening/ activity category. I've never made a purchase of all the songs in an iTunes Essentials category. If I had, I'd probably try checking my "Purchased" smart playlist, which is listed in the order that songs are downloaded. I suspect that just starting at the first song in the iTunes Essential collection and then arrowing down in order with the shift key pressed to select your tracks will work for you. You could use Command-Shift-N to create a new playlist from selection. I'd probably do this by selecting my "Purchased" smart playlist in the sources table, tabbing (or using Command-Option-F) to the search text field and typing in "Madonna", and then tabbing to the songs table, finding the first entry, and holding the shift key down while I ran the down arrow through the other entries to select. Then I would use VO-F6 to check my selection. There are 75 tracks in the complete Madonna Essentials collection. (For new users I'm being a bit sloppy about not putting in the "interact" and "stop interacting" with the various tables; and if tabbing is not working reliably, just VO-Right Arrow or VO-Left Arrow to navigate between the sources table, search text field, and the songs table.) If your "Purchased" smart playlist is large (smile), you can use the smart playlist selection to make your playlist. As a reminder, you can check the detailed "Introduction to Smart Playlists" post in the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries@googlegroups.com/msg01294.html Use the keyboard shortcut "Command-Option-N" to create the new smart playlist and VO-Right arrow to the rules section, interact, and add rules: You probably want to add another condition like a specific date or date range when the tracks were added -- use your purchase date information. Today's date will show up by default in the text field if you have the pop up buttons set: 5/07/09 You can change this value, or you can change the pop up button from "is" to "is in the range". I would personally make a regular playlist from the smart playlist after you're satisfied with the results. Just use Command-A to select all of the tracks in the songs table and use the Command-Shift-N shortcut to create a new playlist from the selection. This way there's no chance of inadvertently editing the smart playlist and overwriting the date added field -- which would be hard to remember if it got changed. You have the option of deleting the smart playlist. Incidentally, your posted link is for Madonna's album "Like a Prayer" and not to the iTunes Essential listing for Madonna, which is (for the complete collection): http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewMix?id=188999783&s=143460&wm=4 If method outlined above doesn't work for you, here's something else you can try. Once you're at the iTunes Store page for the Madonna collection, issue the Command-P print shortcut. In the dialog window, VO-Right arrow to set the radio button for the print option to "CD jewel case insert" -- which is the default setting -- and then set the pop up button for the theme option to "Large playlist (black and white)". Then either press carriage return or navigate to the "Print" button and press it (VO-Space). The regular printer dialog window will appear. Use item chooser menu (VO-I) to find "PDF Menu button", return, and VO-Space to press the button and view the menu options. You can "Save as PDF". Alternatively, you could have found the "Preview button" and viewed the list of songs in Preview This print option is the most straightforward way to get a list with just the song titles. If you want to keep a list with the track names, times, album, and artist, choose the "Song listing" radio button for the print option and set the pop up button for themes to "Songs" after you do the Command-P in iTunes from the Madonna Essentials Collection page. Incidentally, these print options work for your own playlists, too. For a quick way to get a list of the tracks, select all (Command- A), and copy (Command-C) from the songs table for the Madonna Essentials songlist (stop interacting with the HTML part of the iTunes Store then VO-Down Arrow to the songs table). You can paste the entries into a TextEdit file, but it will include everything in the table (times, prices, album, artist). You can always go to View options on the menu bar (or use Command-J) and uncheck the boxes to display time, artist, and album before you select and copy the information in the songs table, but I find it easier
Weird finder stuff
Hi folks. Today I noticed that my finder had a reverse alphabetical order. Things later in the alphabet are at the top of the list, and applications is at the bottom. This is not impairing function but is annoying. Any way to reverse the order? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Hi. For reasonably small amounts you can also expand the gmail account beyond the around 7gb the gmail gives you for free.

Re: Weird finder stuff
Hi Kaare, Just use the command to sort the column again -- it's VO-Shift- Backslash for English language keyboards, but you can use VO-H twice to bring up the commands menu after interacting with the name column and choose the "Sort column" option. Applying the sort command a second time reverses the sort order for a column from ascending to descending. Cheers, Esther On May 7, 2009, at 11:27 AM, kaare dehard wrote: > > Hi folks.

Jaws Keyboard Manager might help. Focus the JAWS window. It is under the utilities menu.

CAPTCHA solution service for Mac users
Hello everyone. My name is Bernard Maldonado. I just joined the group. Mac Visionaries seems like an awesome resource for people who want to embrace the power and capabilities of what Apple has to offer. After all, it is truly a superior product over any of the PC clone competitors. I would like to thank Cara for giving me permission to post this note. Please allow me to introduce an online service that may be of interest to Mac Visionaries. Solona, found at http://www.Solona.net , is a Human Assisted CAPTCHA Solution Service for blind and visually impaired people. The service is fully compatible with Apple users as well as Windows users. Solona is especially helpful when signing up for a website that employs a CAPTCHA on the registration page. Here are some of the main principles promoted at Solona: 1. full disclosure about the service (who, how, what, etc) 2. security and privacy for each user is paramount and documented 3. platform independent (works on Windows, Mac) 4. fast, efficient, and reliable service to users with minimal interaction 5. free service with no levels of membership 6. provide research and information about websites and how CAPTCHAS are implemented in the form of blog articles. I welcome any questions, comments, or concerns that you may have. Feel free to contact me and I'm happy to talk! Any suggestions about how to make the service better are greatly appreciated. The Twitter name is Solona . Twitter is used for announcements and news about Solona. There's much more information on the website, so I won't take more time in this post. The Mac instructions are posted on the "How it works" page. In closing, I would like to share one interesting, yet possibly ironic thought that is frequently on my mind about this service: I hope that Solona fails, but for the right reasons. At some point in the future, Solona should be made obsolete by the implementation of fully accessible anti spam tools on registration pages. That will be a major milestone for the Internet, and I look forward to that day. In the meantime, I will continue to invest time and resources into Solona so that it is a reliable and valuable resource in the blind community, and I will advocate for accessible anti spam registration tools.
