USB drives in VM Fusion

2010-07-07 Thread Chris Snyder
Hi guys,
I seem to be having difficulty attaching an NTFS usb drive to the XP virtual 
machine in VM fusion. It does appear on the Mac desktop, but it doesn't seem to 
want to attach in Fusion. Any ideas?

Friendly,
Chris

Hi chris.

When in VM Fusion are you in full screen?  If so change it by doing
control command and enter (hope that's right as I'm not sitting in front
of my mac).  Then you should have a list of USB devices which you can
connect or disconnect.  If you find what drive you need then press enter
on it and it should connect in windows.

Kawal.

How to read texts on IPod touch.

2010-07-07 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I would like to know which applications we can use on Iphone and Ipod
to read text. Is there any applications in which we can search for a
textstring, is there any applications that allows us to move by page
or another easy way of moving around in a document. I am a
brailleuser, so therefore it would be fantastic if I could use my IPod
for reading books.

macbook keyboards

2010-07-07 Thread Donna Goodin
Good morning, all,

I have a sort of odd question.  I have noticed, since getting my Macbook Pro 
last summer, that my typing on the Mac is a bit less accurate than on other 
computers.  I've finally decided that this is due to the size of the Macbook 
keyboard, i.e. that it is just a tad too small for my fingers.  I got the 
13-inch Macbook, so am wondering if the keyboard is larger if you move to a 
larger model, particularly the 15-inch.  Don't know if anyone can answer this, 
but I appreciate any info you may have.
Thanks,
Donna

Hi Donna,
When I was at the Apple store I looked at the Macbooks and I did notice the 
pro seemed larger than the others. There were several machines there. I 
wonder if you're near an Apple store and can get in and take a look! I 
thought the Macbooks keyboards were larger than the windows keyboards and 
the keys are larger as well. No doubt about it.

am pretty sure the keyboard is the same on all the models, I have that macbook

on my iMac, I sometimes plug this keyboard into my Macbook too.

Re: macbook keyboards

2010-07-07 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi,

I find it completely different here. On Windows laptops, I find the keys 
absolutely massive as opposed to my Macbook keyboard. In fact, I'm suffering 
severe inaccuracy with my Windows laptop as opposed to the Macbook because I 
have to get used to their larger size. I'm not sure if that's just because I'm 
using a certain brand of Windows laptop, though, but the keys are pretty big as 
opposed to the Macbook.

Hi Isaac,

Thanks.  I may do that.  I really don't want to go up to a Macbook 17, both 
because of size and cost.  But I'm thinking that if the 15-inch is bigger, it

I haven't had a chance to see the bigger Macbooks than the thirteen inch. Are 
the keyboards actually bigger? I have to wonder, since my Apple Wireless

I've got an apple wireless keybaord that came with my imac and a mbp 13 and 
there is no difference that I see. the keyboard on the mbp 15 and 17 aren't 
bigger unless they have a full sized keyboard, it is just that the machine is 
bigger in size so it may seem like the kb is bigger

scrolling through big digest messages

2010-07-07 Thread Josh Kennedy
Hi

When I'm reading mail on the mac, I read big email digests with multiple 
subjects. sometimes these are seperated by dashes or the word topic colon, or 
the word message colon. It seems like if the message is really big, I mean the 
message as a whole, when I use vo f and vo g to find the next instance of the 
word or words, vo beeps and can't find it. but if I scroll down using the arrow 
keys then I find it but it takes a very long time to move from topic to topic 
this way in an email digest. So my question is how do I resolve this and 
quickly move from message to message within a big long email digest? you can 
email me off list at jkenn...@gmail.com

Oh, that's interesting.  I suppose it's all in what you're used to.  I've spent 
so many years on Windows, that I'm probably just used to the larger size.  I do 
much prefer the action on the Mac keyboard, so who knows.  Maybe I'll just have 
to work on adjusting to the smaller size.
Take care,
Donna

Re: voice over scripts Would Quick keys work?

Hi Listers,
What about quick keys as a app to gain access to difficult apps?

First of all whilst on the button press control + option + shift +  
h to see if the button has a alternative help tag, if so then great  
we are in business and if not then ask someone sighted to assist you.


Whilst still at the non labelled button press control + option + /  
(slash).  you will now be prompted to enter a label for the  
button.  Enter a label and hit return.  Now the next time your  
VoiceOver cursor moves over that button it will be fully labelled  
and visible to you.  You can also label images the same way.


Failing that, email the developers of the product and explain the  
issues you are having with the product and how they could improve  
the product to enable you to operate it.
usually you can find how to contact a developer by going  to the  
About menu item within the product or sometimes it is in the help  
menu.  Failing that use google to find the developers website, or www.versiontracker.com

Hi.

Try press the paypale button only with space, that worked for me, and
you will be directed to the paypale page, and there you can pay.

I have also bought this application, but I can not find out how to
activate, I hope some of you can help.

Re: Move addict now completely accessible

2010-07-07 Thread Slau
Annie,

To activate it:
1. copy your license number.
2. Navigate to MoveAddict in your Applications folder.
3. Bring up the contextual menu with Control-Option-m and select "View Package 
Contents."
4. In the Contents window, navigate to the Resources folder and find the 
application named "MoveAddict Preferences" and open it.
5. Navigate to the"about" tab and you'll find the License button which will 
open a window with a field for your email address and a field for your license 
number.

Note that there seems to be a dialog box that sometimes appears. The last image 
in the window, I suppose, is an OK button of some type. route the mouse to the 
image and do a mouse click.

HTH,

Slau

Re: voice over scripts

2010-07-07 Thread Sandy Tomkins
Hi,

I apologise in advance if I am missing the point here, but aren't
all apps vetted by apple before being approved for the app store? In
which case, mightn't the best way, to make sure that all apps are
accessible, be to approach Apple, reminding them of their sterling
work re Voiceover and encouraging them to include accessibility as
part of their vetting procedure?

   Just my thoughts,
Sandy.

Re: voice over scripts

In the case of the Ipad, Ipod and Iphone the app are acquired from the  
apple store.
The apps for the laptops and the mini are acquired from the venders of  
the software.

Re: macbook keyboards

2010-07-07 Thread Carolyn
Donna:
While I can't provide a direct answer, I'm thinking it has to do more with the 
flatness of the apple keyboards.  As I type this, (on my dell), I notice it's 
easier to not make mistakes, and with my MBP13, I goof a lot up if I try to go 
too fast.

I notice my PC keyboard has rows that are more graduated as you go up, so 
accuracy tends to be easier to achieve.

I know this won't help, but, at least you're not alone.:)

  Good morning, all,

  I have a sort of odd question.  I have noticed, since getting my Macbook Pro 
last summer, that my typing on the Mac is a bit less accurate than on other 
computers.  I've finally decided that this is due to the size of the Macbook 
keyboard, i.e. that it is just a tad too small for my fingers.  I got the 
13-inch Macbook, so am wondering if the keyboard is larger if you move to a 
larger model, particularly the 15-inch.  Don't know if anyone can answer this, 
but I appreciate any info you may have.
  Thanks,
  Donna

2010-07-07 Thread Donna Goodin
Hi Carolyn,

Well, it's always good to know that I'm not alone. :) 

You may be right about the problem being the flatness rather than the size of 
the keys.  And, as I said earlier to Nic, it may also just be that I've spent 
so long on a Windows keyboard.  Hopefully over time my accuracy will improve on 
the Mac as well.  And hopefully yours will, too. :)

Take care,
Donna

 To activate it:
 1. copy your license number.
 2. Navigate to MoveAddict in your Applications folder.
 3. Bring up the contextual menu with Control-Option-m and select "View
 Package Contents."
 4. In the Contents window, navigate to the Resources folder and find the

 5. Navigate to the"about" tab and you'll find the License button which

Apple Wireless Keyboard Shortcuts for the iPhone and iPod Touch in iOS 4

2010-07-07 Thread Esther

Hi All,

Here's my list of keyboard shortcuts with the Apple Wireless Keyboard,  
amended using Cara Quinn's list style.  I've put in sequences for  
commands like redo, switching input language keyboards, pressing the  
control key to stop VoiceOver speaking, using the media function keys  
to control playback, emacs style control keys. I'm going to include  
some pointers for using the media keys with touch screen navigation in  
a second document.  I also have not included the keyboard shortcut  
alternatives for generating options or special characters or accents,  
since they vary according to the language of your selected input  
keyboard, and my list is for English language keyboards.  Note that  
when you use a keyboard such as the Apple Wireless (Bluetooth)  
Keyboard or the iPad Keyboard Dock, you can also use cut, copy, and  
paste to paste in long passwords in many edit fields where you are not  
allowed to do this with the rotor and the touch screen.  The iPad  
Keyboard Dock has a few additional option keys (for Spotlight search,  
return to home screen, and screen lock), and the key for showing /  
hiding the virtual keyboard is at the position of the F5 key since  
there is no eject key.


Apple Wireless Keyboard

eject - toggle showing / hiding virtual keyboard (this key is at top  
right)

tab - move to next text field (e.g. in mail)
shift tab - move to previous text field
command z - undo
shift command z - redo
command x - cut
command c - copy
command v - paste
command a - select all
control - stops and restarts VoiceOver speaking (e.g., in the middle  
of a two finger flick up or down to read all)
command space - change to next language keyboard (when you have more  
than one selected)

shift command space - change to previous language keyboard

General movement and selection commands with command, option, and  
arrow key combinations.  (For these sequences, holding down the shift  
key will select as well as move your cursor.  On a PC keyboard, the  
control key can be substituted for some, but not all instances of the  
command key.  On some keyboards, the Windows key may replace the  
function of the command key.)


left / right arrows - move left or right by character
shift left / right arrows - select left or right by character
option left / right arrows -  move left or right by word
shift option left / right arrows - select left or right by word
command left / right arrows - move to beginning or end of line
shift command left / right arrows - select to beginning or end of line
up / down arrows - move up or down by line
shift up / down arrows - select up or down by line
command up arrow - move to start of document (page up on PC keyboard)
shift command up arrow - select to start of document
command down arrow - move to end of document (page down on PC keyboard)
shift command down arrow - select to end of document

delete - delete backward by character
option delete - delete backward by word
(forward delete sequences with the Fn key do not work)

some emacs-like control key sequences work:
control a - move to beginning of line
control e - move to end of line
control b - move back a character
control f - move forward a character
control h - backwards delete a character
control k - delete to end of line
control m - insert line feed (blank line)

Selections are slightly tricky, because they are based on your current  
insertion point, so if you select a few words forward by holding down  
the shift key and tapping the option key, then press command up arrow  
to move to the start of the document without releasing the shift key,  
you will end up reversing the selection of the words you started with,  
and selecting all of your document from your starting point to the  
beginning of the document.  Similarly, when you arrow down from the  
middle of a line and hold down the shift key, you select all  
characters from where you started to where you move to in the middle  
of the next line.  On a Mac you can check your selections while you  
work, but here you can't.  For more background details on how these  
commands work for selection, see my archived post on "Moving and  
Selecting in Cocoa Apps:

http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg02038.html

HTH. More later.  Cheers,

Esther

 Annie,
 
 To activate it:
 1. copy your license number.
 2. Navigate to MoveAddict in your Applications folder.
 3. Bring up the contextual menu with Control-Option-m and select "View
 Package Contents."
 4. In the Contents window, navigate to the Resources folder and find the
 application named "MoveAddict Preferences" and open it.
 5. Navigate to the"about" tab and you'll find the License button which
 will
 open a window with a field for your email address and a field for your
 license number.
 
 Note that there seems to be a dialog box that sometimes appears. The last
 image in the window, I suppose, is an OK button of some type. route the
 mouse to the image and do a mouse click.

Need Basic Help About Running Windows

2010-07-07 Thread Deb Lewis
OK Gang.  I read a ton of posts on this but it's like jumping into the middle 
of a conversation. So could someone help me by starting at the beginning.

I just got a MacBook and I do need to run Windows on it for convenience and 
because some things I do just don't exist in the Mac world. 

I know it has BootCamp already on it and my co-worker (not using screen access) 
installed Windows and runs that on her Mac at will. But you're all talking 
about a lot of other ways to do this. What is the best way, what choices do I 
need to make, and what specifically do I need to get. 

Sorry if it's been covered. But after reading posts for an hour from the 
archives I don't know this yet. LOL. TIA.

Non-Latin alphabets and voice over

2010-07-07 Thread Aman Singer
Hi, all.
Has there been any experience with non-Latin character sets and
voice over? I am particularly interested in Arabic, Hebrew, and Chinese. How
is Voice Over with handling these alphabets and texts in these languages, if
anyone knows? I have come across an Arabic voice, but for the other
languages have yet to see one. Are they available, does anyone know? I would
try the Arabic voice myself, but there is no demo of it. Further, how is
braille handled in these languages if anyone has experience?
Thanks as always for the assistance available here.

Hi there, you need to get a copy of vmware fusion, www.vmware.com. This will 
allow you to run windows in a virtual machine, as well as install without 
sighted help. If you have skype or another program for communication, I could 
give you more help getting started with this. It will allow you to run the mac 
and windows at the same time which is very convenient.

Hello Deb. i chose to use VM fusion. It costs about $100. The advantage is
that I can run both Windows and the mac OS's at the same time. If I should

to go. Finally, I can store all of my data on the mac side and have a nice
clean image. Mike Arigo has done 12 podcasts on Blind Cool Tech. I believe
that Pod Cast 7 deals with VM fusion.

OK Gang.  I read a ton of posts on this but it's like jumping into the
middle of a conversation. So could someone help me by starting at the
beginning.

 

I just got a MacBook and I do need to run Windows on it for convenience and
because some things I do just don't exist in the Mac world. 

 

I know it has BootCamp already on it and my co-worker (not using screen
access) installed Windows and runs that on her Mac at will. But you're all
talking about a lot of other ways to do this. What is the best way, what
choices do I need to make, and what specifically do I need to get. 

 

Sorry if it's been covered. But after reading posts for an hour from the
archives I don't know this yet. LOL. TIA.

Hi there, you need to get a copy of vmware fusion, www.vmware.com. This will 
allow you to run windows in a virtual machine, as well as install without 
sighted help. If you have skype or another program for communication, I 
could give you more help getting started with this. It will allow you to run 
the mac and windows at the same time which is very convenient.

The main thing you will wantto do is choose the easy install, and at least 
initially, not set a password, this way you can get to the windows desktop

Re: Need Basic Help About Running Windows

2010-07-07 Thread Garry Turkington
Hi,

Not wanting to state the obvious but you will need to install your
screen reader of choice within the Windows environment, be it a dual
boot under Bootcamp or a virtual machine under VMware Fusion.  I know
there was historically some problems in getting Jaws to work properly
under Fusion because of the jaws key not always being recognised, not
sure if this is still a concern or if it also applies to Window Eyes
or other Windows screen readers.

I will say though as someone who fought with various dual and
multi-boot setups for years I am a huge fan of virtualisation -- use
it heavily on a Windows platform -- and would never want to go back.

Re: Need Basic Help About Running Windows

2010-07-07 Thread Deb Lewis
Yes, I've just listened to Mike's podcast and most of thatmakes sensee to 
me. Really helpful.


He mentioned that I could install it either just using the Virtual Machine 
or install Windows through bootcamp with sightedhelp (which I have) and then 
have them dual boot. Except for the issue of accessibility during install, 
is there any difference between doing it through Bootcamp initiallly or 
through the VMWare?


Also we're buy the extra memory for the Mac Book so it will have 8 megs. It 
sounds like this is enough if I change Windows to 384? That still leaves the 
Mac with more than its default. I know nothing about Mac memory 
requirements.

Re: Need Basic Help About Running Windows

2010-07-07 Thread Garry Turkington
Hi,

The only significant difference between Bootcamp and VMware is how
Windows and the Mac OS run together.  If you use Bootcamp then you'll
have to reboot your Mac into Windows every time you need to use a
Windows application.  And then reboot again when you want to use Mac
software.  If you use VMware then the Windows desktop and all its
applications basically runs within a window atop your Mac desktop.

If you have 8GB of memory in the MacBook then  you will have no
problems at all.  Indeed I'd push the memory on the Windows VM up to
1GB at least as its Windows within the VM that is going to squeal for
more memory first.
