Re: Toast?
Toast 7 was the last version I tried and it was slightly accessible, but more an exercise in frustration. There are a number of alternatives available depending upon what you want to accomplish. For creating audio CDs to play in a standard non-MP3 player, iTunes does a fine job, but think some had issues with gapless tracks and I assume that this applies to creating audio CDs as well as when Ripping them. Dragon Burn is an accessible option from http://www.ntius.com/en/us/home/default.asp and can be also purchased from http://www.macupdate.com.

Re: Issues with zoom
Hi Pete I think I will do another clean install of snow leopard. If i get the same issue again I will go back to Leopard. I have zoom and voiceover on together sometimes but the majority of the time i am just using zoom. I have sent feedback to apple regarding this issue. Thanks for your reply.

Re: how to get the show package content option in the context/right--cliick menu?
Hi Yuma, "Show package contents" sounds like the procedure for examining application bundles. You navigate to your selection, typically in the Applications folder (e.g. use Command-Shift A to go there in Finder), or it might be a downloaded application. Bring up the contextual menu (VO-Shift-M) and select "Show package contents", then when the Contents folder for the application is displayed, either expand it (VO- backslash) or use Command-Down-Arrow to navigate down into the folder. There may be a Resources folder, or sometimes you'll find code definitions for using AppleScript.

RE: installing SL server on a macbook
Actually, the Intel Macs use EFI (Extensible firmware interface.) The following is from Wikipedia: In January 2006, Apple Inc. shipped its first Intel-based Macintosh computers. These systems use EFI and the Framework instead of Open Firmware, which had been used on its previous PowerPC-based systems. On April 5, 2006, Apple first released Boot Camp, which produces a Windows drivers disk and a non-destructive partitioning tool to allow the installation of Windows XP or Vista without requiring a reinstallation of Mac OS X. A firmware update was also released that added BIOS support to its EFI implementation. Subsequent Macintosh models shipped with the newer firmware. All current Macintosh systems are also able to boot BIOS Operating Systems such as Windows XP and Vista.

Re: slight accessibility issue with fusion 3
Hi John. I tried to follow your instructions for gaining keyboard control of the virtual machine, but unfortunately, when I tried to restart VO, The keyboard stopped working and all I got was a bing noise. I had no control of the Mac at all and no Voiceover, so the only solution was to do a hard reset. I am using the Bootcamp partition as my VM and it seems to boot up fine, but as I said before, I can't get any keyboard control over it. Any advice would be great? The VM is an old one that was set up with Leopard and Fusion 2, but the upgrade to Fusion 3 seemed to be fine and the Virtual machine boots up and automatically installed the latest VMware tools, which has messed up the JAWS video intercept, but I'm hoping that will be easy enough to solve if only my keyboard would work?

question about the log on screenq
Hi, I went out to do some training on a mac the other day and when I started up leopard it threw up the log on screen asking for a password. The client didn't know her password and when I called the company that sold the think, they said there wasn't one. Sure enough, when I pressed enter it logged me on, OK, my question is, how can I get rid of this screen? The user has no interest in logging on with a password when her computer starts. Not that it's over much trouble to hit enter, but it would speed things up for her if I could just get the screen gone.

Re: fusion
HI John, Windows will still behave like a regular machine, despite the machine being virtual. Therefore, it can be infected by viruses. However, this will not affect the Mac for obvious reasons. Also, the machine is isolated from the Mac. Thus, Any principals that you applied to a regular Windows machine will still need to be applied with a virtual machine. It will behave just like Windows, to make a long story short. Some people recommend allocating half of the RAM that your Mac has installed to the virtual machine, but personally I prefer to experiment. Keep in mind that if you set the RAM allocation too high, memory swapping between the virtual machine and the Macintosh operating system may occur. And yes, JAWS can start up automatically when Windows launches just like any other Windows machine. You can choose to share some of the Mac folders with Windows and the other way around, though I prefer to keep them entirely separate. This is a personal preference, of course.

Re: slight accessibility issue with fusion 3
Hi, For me, I had to put it into full screen mode (Control-Command- Return), turn off VoiceOver and hit Command-G. On occasion, though, it seems to automatically just grab the keyboard input in my case when I do this. Not having it in full screen doesn't work for me at all. Good luck.

Re: Can't Send Mail
Hi James, thanks. I know I can change the outbound ports, but pop on a non-SSL inbound connection is 110, but can't recall what it would be for a connection secured with SSL. I think your correct 993 sounds familiar and maybe that is the inbound port. Verizon doesn't require SSL for inbound connections, but they do for outbound. Well okay, I'm getting conflicting stories from Verizon on that, but sending no problem, receiving a problem, so once I get the receiving part figured out, life will be good. :) On Nov 2, 2009, at 9:39 AM, James & Nash wrote: > > Hi Scott, > > You've probably checked this, but have you checked your Incoming and > Ougoing > port numbers: Incoming should be 995 if SSL is on and it should be > either > 465 or think 568 if SSL is on for SMP'T. > Take care > > James > - Original Message - > From: "Scott Howell" > To: > Sent: Monday, November 02, 2009 2:24 PM > Subject: Re: Can't Send Mail > > >> >> Matthew, sorry, I should have mentioned that I checked this and yes >> it >> is online.

Re: question about the log on screenq
Hi, I got this far on my own. I'm just looking around my own macbook. In the user accounts table I have my user and I have a group that says log in options. When I select this I get automatic log in. Mine was set to off. I changed it to erik burggraaf, filled in my password, and now Im off to the races. My client didn't have this though. There was only her user account in the table, no log in options group. I'm using snow leopard here and she is using leopard. I'd like to get this set before she does her upgrade.

No I think it's the same in Leopard too. There is a heck box for setting up how login works. Alternatively, your client could always do a resh install.

Re: Can't Send Mail
Thanks, will go back and check. I had initially turned on parental controls and disabled them during this mail setup. Worse case is I'll delete the account and start over. In fact I tried removing all the files in ~/Library/Mail, but the settings must be in another location since starting Mail all the account details are retained. I know I need to go track them down and likely in another folder, but I was tired of screwing with it, so I'll go back and try searching for them again.

Well okay, I'm getting conflicting stories from Verizon on that, but sending no problem, receiving a problem, so once I get the receiving part figured out, life will be good. :) On Nov 2, 2009, at 9:39 AM, James & Nash wrote: > > Hi Scott, > > You've probably checked this, but have you checked your Incoming > and > Ougoing > port numbers: Incoming should be 995 if SSL is on and it should be > either > 465 or think 568 if SSL is on for SMP'T. > Take care > > James > - Original Message - > From: "Scott Howell" > To: > Sent: Monday, November 02, 2009 2:24 PM > Subject: Re: Can't Send Mail > > >> >> Matthew, sorry, I should have mentioned that I checked this and >> yes >> it >> is online.

RE: fusion
Hi, short answer is Yes to all of those questions. As far as memory goes that all depends upon what Windows operating system you are using and what you need it to do. I have Microsoft SBS 2008 virtualized on a Mac Pro which is alocated 8GB of RAM. On my Mac Book I have Windows 2008 R2 virtualized in a 2GB memory space and Windows XP virtual machine allocated 1GB. It all depends upon your needs. Frank From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionar...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of John W.

Re: browser alternatives
There is no special accessible version. Just download regular Opera 10 from opera.com and give it a try. I only played with it a bit to at least discover that the content area seemed accessible. At the same time, as was pointed out, there are some holes like inaccessible pull-down menus. Since the browser is free you can just give it a try.

Re: Can't Send Mail
Yes, it is 995. 993 seems familiar for some reason as well. Don't know, but at this rate if I can't figure it out, I'll just setup a Mobile Me account for him.

Re: selecting files in finder and finder commands
Hello Anouk, The shortcuts for Finder commands are all shown in the Finder menus after each command. VO commands are all shown in the VO menus which you reach by pressing VO-H twice. Cutting and pasting is not available for files and folders to prevent loss of data in case of a sudden power failure. This has always been the case on the Mac. Selecting non-contiguous files: • Start on first file to be selected; • Turn cursor tracking off (VO-Shift-F3); • VO down to next file to be selected and press VO-Command-Spacebar; • Continue in the same way until all required files are selected, then press Command-C to copy them; • Paste them where you want them and return to original window and press Command-Delete to get rid of the originals. Don't forget to put cursor tracking back on when you've finished the whole operation.
