Need trial version of Windows to test out VM Fusion, and Keyboard question on 13" mac book pro
I do not intend or want to pirate Windows but I am in need of the ISO image of windows, any version, so that I can test it out with VM Fusion and Boot Camp. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. I do not want to spend 240 + dollars and fidn out that windows on the mac is not a viable option. Btw, iI bought a 13" mac book pro, whcih does not have the home, page up, page down, and end keys. How would I be able to access these keys if I am using windows on VM or windows witht boot camp? I know that if you press the FN and the arrow keys you can access these keys when using the mac OS, but am puzzled at how I would access these keys using windows.

Re: accessworld article reading weird?
Hello Chris, With web navigation in DOM mode, I focused on the heading, pressed VO-a and the article was read flawlessly. VO-Shift-a selects the contents of the VO cursor, why would you want to do that to read an article? Remember that you can always check what a particular key combination does by pressing VO-k for Keyboard Help, then pressing the key combination in question, and VO will tell you what it does. Escape will get you out of this mode.

Re: solution to sound issue with Fusion
The volume issue affects VmWare 3.10 not 3.0. It is important to make this distinction because if you are having problems with 3.10, you can roll back to 3.0 and restore the audio to a more reasonable level. The problem with 3.10 is the OS has no affect on the volume and there is no way to work around the problem as far as I know.

Re: OCR for mac?
`hello, I don't have experiences with readers so, I can't compare but I use abby finereader for the mac. I can't say if this is the best because: you can't sen preferences and the progress of the ocr-process isn't that accessible. However , I use it to scan books with me cannon 700f lied and it gives quit good results. Some other disadvantages are: the program can't ocr automatically new scanned pages. Also, with large pdf-files (+-100 MB) the system crashes. This don't mean that you lose some text I think but You have to confirm that you have seen the error. Another disadvantage: they are not hurried to brine new opiates. e.g. I was announcing the crash with big files and they advices me a downgrade (What I haven't done).

amadeus pro issues
Hi all, I've got some questions. I just installed my copy of amadeus pro 1.4.3 and click update and it has downloaded the 1.5.1 update and it refuses to install. When I open amadeus pro the dialog says I can either have it install when I quit the program or I can install it now. if I click install now amadeus closes and a window comes up saying if I want to run the script, click run, so I do. after that nothing happens, amadeus doesn't show up it just quits, then I have to open amadeus againa nd it's the same story all over again. If I click install when I quit, absolutely nothing happens. do I need to install this manually? Also I'm having some issues with playback after I've recorded. I've recorded something and I turn the voiceover curser off and pressing space and I don't get any playback. I have to click it from the menu which is really inconvenient. Also, how can I rewind and fast forward quickly for editing? Thanks for all help. Cody -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: VO + SpaceBar or Enter, what is the difference?
Hi, That depends a lot what you are working on. If you are working in a dialog that has a default button, the default button will be activated by hitting enter if you are not working with an element such as a popup button. If you are working with a popup button, you can use either enter or space to select an item in the menu. This will also cause you to leave the pop up menu. It appears to depend a lot on the controls you are working with. There are more examples, of course, but I probably don't remember them all.

Confused about issues in Safari 5
Hi all. I'm confused about the issues in Safari 5. It's weird that some people have a lot of issues, and others don't. The only issue I have is: When I'm writing a text in an edit field, Voiceover suddently crash, and I have to hold down the power button to restart my Mac. However, this doesn't happen very often, but it's really annoying... I remember someone said there was an issue in the downloads window in Safari. I'm currently downloading the latest Itunes, and I don't have any issues... If you are interested, I'll send my Voiceover settings to some of you who have issues to see if it helps.

Re: Confused about issues in Safari 5
Hello Ricardo, I don't live in the States, but I do have an Audible.com acount. Safari remembers my login details and VO doesn't crash. However, the other day, I had to enter my login details on the New Scientist site and VO crashed repeatedly. I told Safari to remember my login details, and now I can log into New Scientist with no problems.

Re: Confused about issues in Safari 5
Hi, Well, it's not an issue at all, actually. The only problem seems to be that it says it's a "group" rather than letting you hear all the info. I call that improvement.

Re: accessworld article reading weird?
Sorry, I meant vo a not vo shift a. Are you using safari 5? It does work much better with the reader. With the regular safari page, it reads the current element and then starts reading another table it looks like.

Re: accessworld article reading weird?
Hi Anne, Interestingly, with web navigation in dom mode I also focused on the heading of that article chris posted about and hit vo a and got the exact results he did. A bunch of the article was skipped. VO read one paragraph and then jumped to the tables that appear after the article. the safari reader, on the other hand, worked flawlessly. Right arrowing through to see the various chunks of text also worked. but vo a certainly did what chris described. mary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: amadeus pro issues
Hi Cody, Hmm,I just installed the newest update for Amadeus and I haven't experienced the problem you did. It said install now and I hit VO Space and it just did it. To make playback, rewinding and fastforwarding easier, you have to press VO F5 then VO command F5 and lastly VO Shift Spacebar. When all else fails, press VO shift Spacebar. THat will route the voiceover cursor to the scroll area. When you press it, you will hear a little mouse click. I'm going to do another podcast on amadeus and applying effects ETC. I didn't realize the voiceover cursor issue was a problem till I seriously started using Amadeus for editing.

speeding up the voice that reads incoming ichat messages
Hi all, Because I was having this issue with vo crashing in the html area where you get incoming ichat messages, I found out from another list that its possible to have incoming messages read in Ichat by setting that up in preferences. The only problem is, the incomings are read very slowly. i went to system preferences and increased the rate of the system voice, but the slow reading continues even after a restart. What else might I change to get speech read at something approximating a speed I'm use to with vo? mary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: VO + SpaceBar or Enter, what is the difference?
hi, ,think of it this way. when you are pressing vo space, you are activating the control with the voiceover curser. when you press enter or space on something, you are activating it with the keyboard focus. someprograms are built in such a way that the keyboard focus doesn't activate the focuised control, but that is a design flaw of the program's controls. the voiceover curser helps to compensate so we can push vo space on buttons & such that can't be activat$ using the keyboard focus. hope this helps, Erik Burggraaf User support consultant, Website: http://www.erik-burggraaf.com Toll-free: 888-255-5194 On 2010-06-20, at 10:02 AM, Alfredo wrote: > Many times to select an option or menu you can click either the enter > key or VO + SpaceBar.

Re: Getting song title in the iTunes radio stations, is it possible?
Hi Scott. Thanks so much for your help with this. I had to change the view to get the titles to show. This is great. I'm wondering if there is a way I can get it to take me directly to the song in the iTunes store? It's not really a problem to just use the vo-shift-c to copy the title to the pasteboard, but I was wondering if there was a quick way to get it to put me in the iTunes store? If not, that's okay, just curious. Thanks again very much.

Re: Prospective Mac User
Hi, Sorry to clog you guys with spam. Heh. No, I didn't find it. In this case, panning means moving the VoiceOver cursor apparently, and the display isn't even showing what the speech is reading which seems kind of odd to me but some lines below it. I'd like to pan the display alone so that, if something scrolls off the display which is going to happen eventually, you can still see it with braille without skipping words., Regards, Nic Mobile Me: nic2...@me.com GoogleTalk: chojiro1...@gmail.com Facebook Twitter Skype: Kvalme MSN Messenger: nico...@home3.gvdnet.dk Yahoo!

Address Book Is Very Confusing to Me
Hi, folk, I've gone through this earlier, I think, but I'd like to bounce it off folks again. I simply don't have a clue about navigating in address book. Names appear when I type, but is there a way to browse through the contacts? I seem to be getting lots of "empty cells", and I know this isn't the case. Is Address Book even accessible? What are the optimum settings , i.e. "show columns", "cards and columns view, etc.? Thanks, Teresa -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Speaking of calculator?
I would like to know why Apple hasn't modeled their calculator for convenience either by the sighted or the VO user. One thing I love about Windows is the calculator. It's very easy to use.

Re: Install iOS 4 today!
I agree actually with Bryan here. I was in a pool room and listening to one of my favorite radio networks. it buffered at 16k stereo dial up which sucked. but then again I think of it like this. some people will still pay 45 a month to use 3 gigs of data or more. so what at&t has done I think is to entice some of us to use more bandwidth and if they can pay for it they will. I prophesy that at&t and verison will get themselves in to a pickle as the networks degrade even further. Sorry for presenting both sides of the coin here but that's what it is.

Re: Install iOS 4 today!
I think you are right. just look at what happened with the unlimited data plans on air cards. They sold them and made them cheap to purchase and then had to discontinue the unlimited and cap them at 5 gb. but you know wat makes me mad? I'm a sprint customer. I have unlimited data on my phone that i can't use because sprint doesn't offer a phone with speach unless i want to buy one and then pay to put mobile me or something like that on it. I'm not going to put out 200 for a smart phone and then 500 for the software. the new blackberries with orator are only available for verizon, and as we all know the iphone is only available with a t & t. good luck to the iphone users. one question that may make me at least think about it, do you think i could manage my website from an iphone if i import the folder to one? something to think about. thanks again, max On Jun 20, 2010, at 7:40 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: I agree actually with Bryan here.

Re: Install iOS 4 today!
I have an HTC Touch Pro with Sprint. I would love to have an iPhone, but I have another year on my contract with Sprint. I use Mobile Speak, which came out with a paid upgrade of $200 six months after I paid $300 for the software. The thing I do like about my HTC Touch Pro is Walking Hot Spot available at Walking Hot Spot.com. It comes in handy in a pinch when I find myself somewhere without Wifi. I have run two laptops off of it, including my Macbook Pro, to get E-mail and do some web surfing. Only problem is that it runs the battery down pretty quickly. Guess I'll stick with Sprint for now and see what eventually happens to the iPHone on other networks in the future.

Karen is a welcome change. :) On Jun 20, 2010, at 1:16 PM, Allison Manzino wrote: > Hi Kimberly, > > I don't think so. THe only thing it changes is the way the date is > pronounced.

For some reason, when you switch the region from U.S. to Australia, it doesn't change the time setting like in the UK regions. THank goodness for that. To change the voice on the Iphone/Ipod do the following: 1. Go to settings 2. Double-tap general 3. Double-tap international and then swipe down to get the list of countries to display. I had to do this a few times before I found Australia. Once you find it, just double-tap and then press home. The next time you turn on your Iphone, you will have Karen's pleasant voice coming out of your speaker. I hope this helps someone. Have a great day, all.

Re: Install iOS 4 today!
Hello; that hot spot feature does sound good.

Re: Install iOS 4 today!
I haven't bought the upgrade as my phone runs just fine with the old Mobile Speak, but if it dies, the HTC Touch Pro 2 will need the upgrade to be functional, which will cost me another $200. Of course, if the iPhone never makes it to other carriers, I may just have to do without one. We get a really great deal with Sprint and supposedly unlimited data, so it's hard to leave, especially since the other carriers have decided to implement limits. I have an iPod Touch, which I love and would like to have an iPad. I'm waiting on that one though until I see how the upgrade of IOS4 effects the functionality of the iPod Touch.

Re: Install iOS 4 today!
The options before June of last year were to use one of the phones from LG or other providers that offered limited access to basic phone functions or to purchase one of the phones and put Talks or one of the other speech programs on it. And, after using the iPhone, I really think those solutions were sub par. The iPhone is far better than those solutions. On Jun 20, 2010, at 6:23 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Only realistic option?

creating Iphone ringtones with amadeus
Hi all, I have just discovered how to create ringtones other than using ringer. In the Amadeus file menu, there is an option export as Iphone Ringtone. WHen you click it, it will ask you if you have selected copy files in to Itunes library automatically or something like that. You can do this under advanced preferences in Itunes. I forget what the exact setting is, but Amadeus will tell you. Once you click okay, you will be asked which format you want to save it. It's defaulted to AAC I think. I left it as is, and clicked okay. After that, you should see your new ringtone appear in your ringtones folder within Itunes music. I hope this is helpful to someone. Just spent the $15 on Ringer, which I think is a good app, and not everyone has Amadeus :).

Re: Do you need a mixer to broadcast on a Mac?
YOu don't exactiley need one no but if you do want to use a hier end sounding mike that is not USB then you would have to use a mixer. for example if you wanted to use a cadm179 you would need a mixer because this mike is XLr and needs fantem power. but if you just want to brodcast you can use dj and nicecast and get a mike like the snowball USb mike or plug a mike into your line out port on your mac. I hope this helps a bit. On 2010-06-20, at 10:57 PM, Allison Manzino wrote: > Hi all, > > I was reading the posts on DJ software for Mac. Do you need a mixer or can > you just use DJ and Nicecast?

Re: Do you need a mixer to broadcast on a Mac?
Hi, I don't think you need a mixer. If you want to prerecord a show, which I'm probably going to do, you can just use DJ for Mack. If you want to go live, you can use both, but in either case I don't think you need a mixer.
