Re: threaded messages?

[Sarah Alawami]

I believe so but not sure. just go to view and then sort by thread. then choose 
to expand or collapse the threads.

I hope this answers your question and I hope I understood what you wanted.

Take care.

Hi,
As a matter of fact, i'm in contact with the developer of Hindenburg. As it 
stands right now, it's not accessible, the journalist edition looks like i 
remember Audacity, many unknowns. The developer is aware of this and is working

Re: possible other audio editor...for journalists at least?

[Cody]

As I've posted before, I can't wait for the new version of pro tools 9, as I 
have heard of accessibility improvements being done. I'm not much a 
journalist, but I'd imagine you'd use the same editing techniques as you 
would to remaster a song. I'm hoping to get myself into a professional audio 
course in college here in Maine and if anyone has any help/suggestions 
please let me know.

Re: possible other audio editor...for journalists at least?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi cody,
As for  broadcasting programs in Maine, one of the very best taught by 
seasoned radio professionals is there.  They have a sensational record for 
catering the process of learning to the individual desires and  needs of 
the student who happens to experience a disability too.
drop me a note privately, and I will connect you with the university 
program's director.

Re: possible other audio editor...for journalists at least?

[Karen Lewellen]

really?
I love this list, truly I do.  I appreciate the talent and wisdom you guys 
put into educating those who might not think about access.

Happy on both counts, audacity was still in the flaky department.
The idea that its been updated gives me some serious reason to consider 
making mac changes.
That and  frustrating outspoken issues that have me working  around it these 
days for pro tools anyway. lol

accessible-tools is that it will not features important to those of us who work 
in broadcast journalism need the same way  we have them addressed in the 
present pro tools structure.
Pro tools is an industry standard in  journalism too, so both the musician and 
the reporter have a steak in it.
Anyway, a friend of mine sent me another program option.
its called
Hindenburg Journalist.  there is a field recorder option too.
My question is if anyone has seen this, how workable is it now?
if not at all, the program is still under development, meaning wise minds can 
have a role in this.  Its  still free right now too.
here is the site.

if that's wrong, yell i am a little tired.

Re: I thought I would post this.

[Mary Otten]

No, Ibraille works exclusively with Index embossers. Its a product of the Index 
company and it, like its sister Winbraille for the windows platform, is free to 
people who purchase an Index embosser but doesn't work with any but index 
devices.

Words in all Caps

[Kimberly thurman]

I hope everyone is doing well today.  I have a question.  What and 
where do I need to change something to make VO pronounce text written in all 
caps as words and not by individual letters?  Some folks type their subject 
lines in all upper case letters and VO reads through them letter by letter so 
fast it is impossible to   
recognize  the  words.  

As always, thanks for all the brilliant answers you guys provide .  You truly 
are invaluable!  (Smiles!)

Re: Words in all Caps

Kim,

Are you using Leopard or Snow Leopard? VoiceOver reads all caps as words for me 
in Snow Leopard. I can't think of any setting, per se, that would make it 
behave differently but I could be overlooking something.

I am using Snow Leopard.  It has read all caps as letters since I began using 
this machine about two months ago.  It is a 13 inch Macbook Pro.

Quicken Accessibility

[E.J. Zufelt]

Good afternoon,

I received the following response from an Intuit representative in the U.S. 
regarding Quicken accessibility.  They declined a request for a trial version 
for testing.

***

Sorry, but we do not offer free software for testing outside of our Beta 
process(es).  If you and/or your clients purchase Quicken Essentials and 
discover that it is incompatible with your application, you can return it 
within 60 days for a refund.
 
Quicken Essentials was not specifically designed with VoiceOver  in mind, but 
if VO is capable of converting text to speech regardless of what application is 
generating that text, then I would expect at least some of that same 
functionality with Quicken Mac product(s).  Where I see concern is where the VO 
would encounter graphic images such as bank logos, scanned attachments and/or 
Graphs (from Reports & Graphs).
 
Hope this gives you at least a little more information.

Thanks,
Everett Zufelt

Re: Words in all Caps

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Kim,

I don't know whether this will help, but I'm not seeing this behaviour. My 
suggestion is to go into Mail Preferences (Command-Comma), Interact with the 
Toolbar and select Composing. You will find a popup menu labelled Message 
Format, select Plain text then close Mail preferences.

I know that this improves VO's reading of HTML messages, but whether it fixes 
your particular problem remains to be seen.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: possible other audio editor...for journalists at least?

[Slau Halatyn]

Hi Krister,

That's kind of a big question but I'll try to answer it as concisely as I can.

Pro Tools comes in 2 basic flavors: TDM and host-based. The current TDM system 
is called HD and is the most expensive but most expandable system found in 
studios.

The host-based systems can be broken down into LE and M-Powered systems. The LE 
systems require Digidesign hardware to run Pro Tools. There's the MBoxII, 
MBoxII Pro, Digi003 and Digi 003 Rack. These interfaces range from around $500 
to around $3,000 depending on certain software bundles, etc. Each interface has 
its own limitations as far as input/output but all are capable of playing back 
up to 48 stereo tracks.

The M-Powered systems use M-Audio interfaces and range from somewhere around 
$250 for a dongle-like interface up to around $1,300 for a control surface. If 
you have an M-Audio interface already, it's possible to just buy Pro Tools 
software for around $199.

While it won't be necessary to use a control surface to access Pro tools, there 
are compelling reasons to use a surface for speed and accuracy. For example, 
trying to record fader automation with keystrokes is way more cumbersome and 
far less accurate than simply moving a fader and recording the movement. Also, 
editing audio with a scrub wheel like on the Digi 003 is an absolute breeze. Of 
course, it can be done without the scrub wheel but, once you've done it that 
way, you'll never want to go back.

Hopefully that answers your question a bit. Feel free to contact me off list if 
you have more questions.

Cheers,

Slau

RE: possible other audio editor...for journalists at least?

[Cameron]

Hi.  Yes, you need a hardware device to run pro tools.  You can also buy pro
tools m powered, which will work with certain m audio interfaces including
the project mix control surface/interface.

All the packages I'll list include pro tools as well as various plug ins
etc.  for pro tools le setups, the most basic is the m box 2 mini, which is
a uSB interface.  that package usually sells for approx $295.  Next, you've
got the m box 2, $449, which is USB, then the m box pro, $699, which is
firewire.  All the interfaces from there on out are firewire.  You've got
the 003r which is a 2u rack interface, starting at around $1199, then the
003 which is an interface and control surface with motorized faders, that
starts at a bit over $2k.  the factory and factory complete bundles of those
interfaces have more plug ins...  there is also the command 8, which is just
a dedicated control surface...

moving up from there, you've got the control 24, which is around $25k... and
tdm systems, unlike le systems, require PCI cards which handle dsp
processing and audio i/o...

I hope that gives you a bit of an idea.

Cameron.

Slau,

Are you saying that the M audio interfaces are actually accessible? I've got 
a mackie pro fx 12 channel mixer and I like it everything is tactile and is 
easy to use.

Re: possible other audio editor...for journalists at least?

[Slau Halatyn]

Well, when you say, are the M-Audio interfaces accessible, I'm assuming you're 
asking whether the software to configure the interface is accessible. The 
answer, for now, is no. Thing is, M-Audio is aware of the issue and will 
address it. I'm sure it won't be for several months but I'm pretty sure they'll 
make the M-Audio control panel accessible in the future.

Hi Krister,

That's kind of a big question but I'll try to answer it as concisely as I can.

Pro Tools comes in 2 basic flavors: TDM and host-based. The current TDM system 
is called HD and is the most expensive but most expandable system found in 
studios.

The host-based systems can be broken down into LE and M-Powered systems. The LE 
systems require Digidesign hardware to run Pro Tools. There's the MBoxII, 
MBoxII Pro, Digi003 and Digi 003 Rack. These interfaces range from around $500 
to around $3,000 depending on certain software bundles, etc. Each interface has 
its own limitations as far as input/output but all are capable of playing back 
up to 48 stereo tracks.

The M-Powered systems use M-Audio interfaces and range from somewhere around 
$250 for a dongle-like interface up to around $1,300 for a control surface. If 
you have an M-Audio interface already, it's possible to just buy Pro Tools 
software for around $199.

While it won't be necessary to use a control surface to access Pro tools, there 
are compelling reasons to use a surface for speed and accuracy. For example, 
trying to record fader automation with keystrokes is way more cumbersome and 
far less accurate than simply moving a fader and recording the movement. Also, 
editing audio with a scrub wheel like on the Digi 003 is an absolute breeze. Of 
course, it can be done without the scrub wheel but, once you've done it that 
way, you'll never want to go back.

Hopefully that answers your question a bit. Feel free to contact me off list if 
you have more questions.

Cheers,

Slau

Re: changing the speed on my dvd drive

In some situations if the iso contains lots of files, burning at a
faster speed can result in corruption, but more often than not, its
only poor quality drives and bad media that this happens to. Perhaps
you could try just burning the disk at the default speed to see what
happens while you weight for an answer?

Hi Karen,

Yes, Pro tools 8 definitely supports the 002. As I mentioned earlier, the scrub 
wheel on the 003 is really handy to have but, since PT LE has included keyboard 
shortcuts for shuttle mode since version 7, it's not as critical as it was in 
version 5/6.

caplsock key could not be used as a modifier no matter what I did.  not hat I 
installed windows on bootcamp or with bootcamp will my capslock work as a 
midifier for jaws, nvda dn what ever else I have in my tool belt? or will I 
have to lug out my usb keyboard every time I launch windows?

Thanks.

I'd apply too, except I don't believe I have the requisite skill set. (And 
Melanie says we may not move to California, more's the pity.)

RE: Apple Job Opening - Accessibility Software Quality Engineer

[Bryan Smart]

If you're the Mark BurningHawk that I know from the AGRIP list, then it 
probably wouldn't have worked out, anyway. I'm pretty sure that particular Mark 
doesn't have an undergraduate degree in Computer Science. *smile* If that's not 
you, then apologies.

Apple has already employed blind devs. I've known a few. A buddy of mine was 
with them for several years. Him and I used to spend time during our teens 
putting Apple II and Mac screen readers through disassembler tools and manually 
hacking in modifications with a byte editor. That's the kind of people that 
they need. I'm really disappointed that he chose to move on and accept another 
offer. I would have liked to have been there, but I was working for Microsoft 
at the time, and I have a life now that I wouldn't leave for even cool work 
like this.

Apple will absolutely hire a blind dev, but they won't hire someone for this 
type of position just to be the equivalent of a full time beta tester, a Mac 
accessibility advocate, or booster. The Computer Science and QA skills are 
essential.

RE: latest Quicken apparently written in Cocoa

[Bryan Smart]

I seem to remember that Google has free evaluation copies of nearly everything. 
I think how you do it is to search for the name of the program that you want to 
evaluate, and follow it with the wort "torrent". *smile*

If you like it, and use it, then buy it. However, there is no need to wait 
weeks for the chance to try it, or else buy it, find out that it isn't 
accessible, and struggle to get a refund.

Hi everyone.  I'm not interested in Quicken myself, but I'm

The latest version of Quicken has been released, and apparently 
it's be completely re-written from the ground up using cocoa.  I don't know if 
this means it will be VO friendly or not, but I would guess that the 
possibility exists.  Unfortunately they don't offer a demo, and at $69 it's a 
little pricy to try as an experiment, but they do offer a two month money back

At any rate, here's an article from The Unofficial Apple Weblog

Subject: Quicken Essentials for Mac now available

Source: The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

Author: Michael Grothaus




Filed under: Software 
 

 
 

After a four year absence 
 , the 
next version of Quicken for the Mac is here. It's called Quicken Essentials for 
Mac 

  and is a ground up Cocoa rewrite. I've been using the program for a few weeks 
now. Is it worth the wait? Well that depends what you need in your financial 
software.

When I interviewed 

  Aaron Patzer, VP/GM of Intuit's Personal Finance Group, he was quick to point 
out that it's called Quicken Essentials for a reason: "It's called Essentials 
because it's what we consider to be essential for most users - about 80% of 
users. We went to people's homes and watched them use it. The majority of them 
just want to know: How much do I have? How much do I owe? How much do I spend 
on gas and food? How many times do I go to this restaurant? How many times do I 
go to Starbucks? What investments do I have? Let me set a budget to control my 
spending."

If an easy overview of your financial life is the goal 
Intuit had in mind, they've outdone themselves. The first thing you'll notice 
is the completely redesigned interface. Gone is the horrible toolbar navigation 
with multiple windows. Quicken Essentials has got that familiar streamlined 
iTunes/iLife look and feel with all your accounts, reports, budgets, and tools 
nicely displayed in a source list. It's single window interface makes it easy 
for the user to get a complete snapshot of all their finances. The interactive 
pie charts are snappy and responsive, and the built-in reports make it easy to 
view your checking, savings, and investing accounts.
Perhaps the most standout feature of this revamp is the 
improved categorization that takes a ton of work off the plate of the user. The 
guys at Quicken have developed a learning algorithm for Quicken Online that 
allows users to self-tag, with the Quicken Online software remembering those 
tags and then applying them to other people's data. The more people who use it, 
the smarter the tagging gets. In my te

Re: Shoutcast Apps

[Brent Harding]

Yeah, I wonder. This is one reason I want boot camp on the Mac. I might have 
to take my chances with XP licenses bought on Ebay. I think if it comes to 
it, I could prerecord a show and just buy nicecast to broadcast it out. 
That's the one thing that gets flakey, I heard, audio and VMWare.

NLS Books

I know that many people on this list are not from the United States, and 
I also know that many others on this list consider NLS books to be "getto" 
books, nonetheless, I ask my question.
I need to teach someone how to download NLS books and unzip them to a thumb 
drive or a blank cartridge so that they can play them on their NLS player.
Can anyone help me with this?  The person in question has access to a Mac, 
but not to a Windows machine.
So, what they will need to do is download the book and unzip the book to a 
thumb drive attached to their Mac.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: NLS Books

[Karen Lewellen]

I have  one very strong piece of advice for you.
Unless you want to risk this individuals rights to service, you 
absolutely must direct this question, including telling the service that 
you asked on  this list to the nls arena that manages downloads.
I have no idea why anyone would think nls books are ghetto,  the collection 
is rather diverse actually.
However I do understand NLS has good reason to be paranoid about the 
digital collection, and has put protections that prevent  anyone from 
getting books who are not supposed to have them.
I have the link to the list service somewhere, but am sure you can find it 
at

www.loc.gov/nls.
hope this helps,
Karen

Re: NLS Books

[Slau Halatyn]

1. They need to log in to the NLS BARD site, assuming they're already 
registered with the library.

2. Find the book using the search facility of the site.

3. Simply click on the link that says "Download (book title, whatever that 
might be." By default, the zipped file will download to the specified download 
folder, usually, not surprisingly, the Download folder.

4. Navigate to the downloaded file in the Finder and open the file with 
Command-o. This will unzip the file.

5. Copy the decompressed file folder and navigate to the thumb drive on the 
desktop.

6. Open the thumb drive with Command-o and press Command-v to paste the book 
onto the thumb drive.

Re: NLS Books

[Sarah Alawami]

what I would do is unzip using the built in archiving utility with command O 
and copy the resulting folder to th ethum drive and move the zip to the trash 
afterwords and keep the folder in case something goes wrong or they want to 
reread the book.

Take care.

Re: bootcamp question

[Romack]

Sarah,
Yes - the Caps Lock key works perfectly with JAWS in Bootcamp. I'm
running it here, and have no issues whatsoever. Make sure to adjust
your settings to use the Laptop/Notebook keyboard layout with JAWS,
and you're good to go.

Let me know if you have any other Bootcamp questions. I'm slugging
through it. I'm far less eager to boot into Windows now, but some
things must be done in XP.
