scroll areas

2010-09-06 Thread Isaac Obie

Hi all:
I get a list of messages in a scroll area. After I read one, I can't figure 
out how to get back to the original area in order to arrow down to the next 
message to read. I've tried command W and command Q and when I reopen the 
area, I am sent back to the same old message. What might I be doing wrong? 
Thanks.
Isaac

Hi all,

Well, it was user error 

I don't usually use quicknav,O but I did have it turned on, and totally forgot 
about it.

I appreciate the suggestions that were made.

Thanks.

Hi Isaac!
If you are talking about email's
When you are in the message table where it tells you who the message is from 
and subject, you can use command+j to jump into the message area and when you 
have red it use command+j again to take you back to the headers, and then you 
can scroll up or down to the next message!
If you are not on about emails I do not know if this works for what you are 
trying to do!

places you into the text of the message, the second press brings you back to

Blackboard, anyone?

2010-09-06 Thread Michael Busboom
Hi listers,

Blackboard is an e-learning platform that many universities use for online 
distribution of course material.  Recently, the beta version of Blackboard 9.1 
was introduced, and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience using it.

Actually, I wouldn't mind getting feedback from people who have used earlier 
versions of this e-learning platform.  In particular, I am wondering if anyone 
can give me tips on how to best use Blackboard with Safari.  While it is not 
difficult to get to the part of the program where you can read your assignments 
and take tests, it is very difficult to participate in classroom discussions, 
e.g. following long threads.

If anyone could point me to some good tutorial information on how to use 
Blackboard with Safari and Voice Over, I'd be more than grateful.  If anyone 
would be willing to chat with me via Skype and help me go through the platform, 
I'd be even more grateful!

Kindest regards to all,

Mike

iphone, shutdown skype

2010-09-06 Thread Paul Erkens

Hi all,

If you set skype on an iphone not to log in automatically at startup, then 
you must do that yourself, providing the password when you manually start up 
skype. You stay online all the time, until you turn off the iphone. Is there 
a way of only shutting down skype itself, in order to go offline on skype, 
rather than restarting the entire o s to make skype stop running?

a do it yourself case project

2010-09-06 Thread Cheree Heppe
Cheree Heppe here:

This hollow book idea could be used for a number of creative purposes.  The 
outline on how one IPad user made a personalized IPad case from a used book is 
below.

 I think we could manage this pretty well with a bit of attention to details.

 

‘iBook’ project

. As I mentioned, I documented the process and now I’m here to post the guide in

case anyone else is interested in making their very own. There is definitely 
more

than one way to make a book safe, and if you have more appropriate tools, feel 
free

to improvise. The methods I selected were based on low cost and simplicity and 
will

at lease give you a good idea of the process. Let’s get started.

 

Project cost: approx. $10

Project time: this project can be completed in a single day, but you’ll 
definitely

want to set aside a large chunk of time for page cutting (might want to grab 
your

headphones for some music!)

 

Required materials:

A fitting book

Precision knife (Xacto, packaging knife, etc.)

Rubber cement

Scotch tape

Pencil

Patience (quite a bit of it)

 

Tips for book selection:

Local bookstores (or thrift shops) are likely to have very inexpensive used 
books. The one I used was $2. I bought three books of varying sizes to be sure 
I got the fit I wanted. I used one book as a practice first before doing the 
final one (lots of cutting!). I took

my iPad to the store to size up several books.

 

Things you want to look for in the book –

depth

, be sure that there are enough pages in the book that your iPad will fit all 
the

way in. This is probably the toughest part of the selection process because it 
can

be hard to judge. You may wish to measure how high your iPad stands off of a 
flat

surface before going to the book store, then find a book with page width that is

equally or slightly deeper than the measured value. Be sure that the book has 
enough padding around your iPad. That is, make sure that when you cut out the 
shape, the resulting thickness of the pages is enough to support your iPad and 
withstand a fairly intensive cutting process. You don’t want to try cutting the 
shape out with, say, 0.2” of padding, you’ll likely rip some pages during the 
process. There is about 0.75” of padding

in my final iBook.

 

Steps

1.

Remove the cover of the book (if it has one) and center the iPad face-down 
inside

the cover. (I am not clear here whether this author means to take the cover 
totally off, or fold it out of the way.  Since I prefer the cover on, I would 
opt to fold instead of remove.)

 

Use the pencil to trace an outline, you should hold the pencil perpendicular

to the paper so that the side of the pencil pushes against the side of the iPad 
as

you trace. The distance from the side of the pencil/iPad to the tip leaves a 
good

buffer in your outline and subsequent cut to ensure a good fit. If you cut it a 
little

too big you can always add spacers to increase the tightness, but if you cut it 
too

small, you’ll have a hard time figuring out how to re-cut all of the pages…. 
(Note

that the volume rocker and hold switch will be on the opposite side when the 
iPad

is face-up in the finished product, cutting around them specifically would be 
too

tedious, this is what the buffer is for.)

 

2.

You want your first several cuts to follow the rounded shape of the iPad’s 
corners.

I’d recommend cutting the rounded corners for 10-20 pages. After that you’ll be 
cutting

square corners (much easier!), but the top pages will give it a round corner 
look,

which will give a more custom-fit appearance. Use your knife to begin cutting on

your outline. I pressed very firmly with my knife to cut through several pages 
at

once, then pulled them out until I needed to cut again (early enough that I 
could

still see previous cut marks and knew where to cut). Finding the right number of

pages to cut through and pull out before making more cuts its probably the most 
challenging

part of this project. Just make your cuts carefully and eventually you’ll get 
into

a rhythm. Don’t forget to square your corners after the first 10 or 20 pages and

you have installed an a program like flash for example, than you hit command E 
when you are on the dmg file and it will say "eject".  After that, it will 
basicly disappear.  Mine is not doing that.  When I hit command e on the DMG

Re: DMG files

2010-09-06 Thread Esther

Hi Nancy,

DMG files are a fairly standard way of distributing application  
bundles on the Mac.  The extension initials stand for "disk image  
files", and they behave the like volumes (disks, USB memory keys,  
etc.) that are mounted on your device.  This method of distribution  
(as .dmg files) lets them access certain system permissions so you  
don't have to worry about knowing this. Most of the apps you install  
this way don't actually need to run an installer, so all you have to  
do is move or copy the application from the mounted disk image and put  
or paste it into the folder you want to store it in -- which is  
usually the Applications folder that you navigate to in Finder with  
the shortcut of Command-Shift-A.  Occasionally, you might want to put  
an app into the Utilities folder, which you navigate to with Command- 
Shift-U.   The only time that you need to run an "install" or  
"uninstall" on applications is when these applications can't run as  
stand-alone programs, but need special access to other programs that  
are installed on your Mac.  For example, in order to play proprietary  
format streaming Windows Media Player files in your Safari browser,  
the Flip4Mac program needs to get special privileges to interact and  
control Safari, so it requires an installer.  Any uninstallers you  
need for installed programs will come as menu options in the installed  
programs.


However, getting back to most applications which do not need  
installers, once you move the application from the .dmg file to your  
Applications folder or other location, you do not need the .dmg file  
any more, and you can eject it.  However, because this works like a  
mounted disk drive, you cannot eject the file if you are actively  
working in it -- just as you cannot eject an attached USB memory key  
if you are using Finder to browse through its contents, because "the  
drive is in use".  If you've finished with the .dmg image and copied  
the application to another location, close the dialog window from  
which you read the instructions or copied the application.  Then go to  
Finder and eject the disk image. Usually you will be able to find it  
listed in the Finder sidebar.  Just stop interacting with the current  
window and navigate to the sidebar, interact and find the disk image  
listed under your "Devices" and when you're on the disk image use  
Command-E to eject it.  You can now delete the disk image from your  
downloads directory.


Many people get confused about the need to open the disk image to run  
a program. Yes, you can run a version of a program from there.  But  
it's like running a program from a CD or another mounted hard drive --  
you don't need to do it once you've copied the application to your  
Applications folder; you can just run your own copy of the  
application.  Also, you can put these applications anywhere, and  
sometimes they're distributed as .zip files and unzip automatically in  
your Downloads folder.  You can run the applications from that  
location, but it's tidier to put them all in one place for  
organization purposes.


HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: DMG files

2010-09-06 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi Nancy,

I think that you may be confusing the dmg file with what the dmg file creates 
upon opening.  A dmg is a Disk image usually used for installers and such.

To explain in more detail, follow this example:

1.  Disk Image named Installer.dmg was downloaded.
2.  Open this dmg (Disk Image file) by pressing cmd-o when selected.
3.  The disk image file remains in its original location but a read only copy 
of the Installer file is mounted to the Desktop.  visually, it will kind of 
look like a CD icon.
4.  You can open the mounted item that is on the Desktop and run whatever is 
inside it such as an Installer.  You cannot remove anything from it though as 
it is read-only.
5.  If you wish to get rid of the item on the Desktop, simply navigate to it, 
make sure it has focus then press cmd-e and it will disappear.
6.  The original Installer.dmg file was not affected and you could follow the 
above steps anytime later as long as you don't Trash the Installer.dmg file.

HTH.

Making calls in Skype.

2010-09-06 Thread Geoff Waaler
Greetings,

Somehow I got to my list of Skype contacts, however upon attempting to interact 
I only got text, hence assume I was in the right view.  There was no indication 
of the status of my contacts, but I selected one that I believed to be online.

My question is: what's next?  When I attempted to click the mouse 
(vo+shift+space) I was presented with an Apple menu rather than an associated 
context menu.  I then tried first routing the mouse pointer to the VO cursor 
(VO+Command+F5).  Afterwards, when I clicked the mouse, the Mac bonked at me 
without any other discernible affect.

I guess an extra credit question might be how to answer a call when it rings?  
Oh yeah, and since there appear to be no keyboard commands supported in the 
MacOS version is it possible to hang up without hunting and pecking through the 
menus?

TIA and best regards.
Geoff

Re: Making calls in Skype.

2010-09-06 Thread Greg Aikens
When I want to call or chat with a contact I hit enter on the contact name in 
the list. A window then comes up with the text chat. I then navigate to the 
toolbar which has several options. One of them is a call button. When someone 
calls I just navigate around until I find the answer button. I generally make 
the calls because I haven't figured out how to answer quickly so I can't 
describe the process better than that yet.  

Hope this helps.

Book Share New User help

2010-09-06 Thread Eric Caron
Hi list,

Thanks to posts on this list and viPhone, I have obtained a free trial 
membership to Book Share.  Further thanks to this list and the other I learned 
that I would need a special tool called the unarchiver to open the Zip files. 

I did all this successfully  

Now what? 

After downloading two books the site crashed and said it was undergoing 
maintenance, I refuse to think I caused this crash, But I can't use the site to 
find help.

I have a folder with a bunch of files I don't know what to do with.

First, how can I read the book on the Mac?

Second, I have seen that people are using a iPhone app called indaisy to read 
book share books.  Is there any way to read these books on the iPhone using 
iBooks? 

I would really appreciate direction.

And again I'm not responsible for the Book Share site being down!

Hi Michael,

To filter eMail in the manner you are asking, you'll need to use the Rules tab 
of your Mail Preferences.

1.  Open Mail app.
2.  Press cmd-comma to open the Mail Preferences.
3.  Navigate to the Toolbar and Interact with it.
4.  Navigate right to the Rules button and press it with VO-space.
5.  Stop Interacting with the Toolbar.
6.  Navigate right to the Add Rule button and press it with VO-space.
7.  Set-up your rule according to the various options and scroll areas.

Re: Making calls in Skype.

2010-09-06 Thread Mark BurningHawk Baxter
You can also hit VO shift M once you've landed on a contact name and  
get a context menu giving you choices such as call, chat, etc.


This brings me to an interesting question:  Can a Skype phone number  
receive text messages?  I have a normal 10-digit skype phone number  
for my area code, and someone said they tried to text to it but I  
never got it, so I guess the question is, is there a way to enable it?

Thanks. :)

Re: Book Share New User help

2010-09-06 Thread Rafaela Freundt
Hi Eric,

you can't read the books using ibooks, currently the only app I know that works 
is Inndaisy. To read them on the mac, in the folder you have of the book there 
is a xml file, open that one and you will be able to read the book using safari.

Re: Making calls in Skype.

2010-09-06 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Jeff, 

 I'll try to help with your Skype questions but I suspect others will follow 
doing a better job. 

First, I'm not a power user yet but I find using Skype pretty easy so I'm sure 
you will too once you learn a few tips and tricks.

To make a call to a contact I navigate to the correct table then interact with 
the table.  I then arrow down until I hear the contact name I want to call.  at 
that point I bring up the context menu.  This might be the wrong name in a mac, 
I believe the command is VO Shift m. 
Once that menu comes up I down arrow until I hear call.  I press that and the 
call begins. 

By the way I use quick Nav so down arrow could be VO down arrow for you.

To answer a in coming call I press command tab until I hear that I am in the 
answer window I then VO left or Right arrow until I hear the answer button 
announced.  I select that and I'm talking to a friend. 

To hang up easily you will want to create a short cut command from the menu bar 
command hang up.  In the meantime to end a call go to the menu bar and navigate 
to the Call menu then down arrow until you hear hang up.  press that to end the 
call.

I created a keyboard short cut command Option H and I use that to hang up 
calls.  

Sadly we can't do a short cut Answer command because there is no menu  item for 
that.
One more tip.  In the table with your contacts you will find that on line folks 
show up above the Skype Test Call and off line contacts are listed below. 


I hope this helps.

Just a quick question. I don't know if it is just my mac, but why is there an

it is not much of a problem but I just wanted to know.

Hi,

1.  Is the rule active/inactive checkbox checked.  It must be checked in order 
for the Rule to apply.
2.  Were you too specific in the rule criteria.  Use Contains instead of Is if 
wishing to be less specific.
3.  Did you put Move to and specify a certain mailbox in the Perform Actions

 To filter eMail in the manner you are asking, you'll need to use the Rules 
 tab of your Mail Preferences.
 
 1.  Open Mail app.

 3.  Navigate to the Toolbar and Interact with it.

Request For Banking Software Suggestions Plus 2 More

2010-09-06 Thread M. Taylor
Hello My Fellow Apple Seeds,

1.
In my quest to make my Mac my main conduit to the world, I am now seeking a
trusted, high quality banking program that will allow me to interface with
my banking institutions.

Currently, I use Microsoft Money which, as some of you may know, is no
longer being developed by Microsoft and will no longer be supported after
June, 2012.  

I know that many people use their banking institution's web interface but I
prefer to use a financial client.  

One of my favorite features of MS Money is that it allows for easy entry of
the most common withdraw types such as ATM and Debit Card.  The cost of the
Application is irrelevant so long as it can do the job.  

2.
Also, since I'm asking, is there a new version of iWorks anywhere on the
horizon?  

3.
When composing a message in iMail, how does one request a Read Receipt?  I
cannot remember if this can or cannot be done.

Thank you all in advance.

Most Sincerely,

Mark
