Re: Copying link in Sendspace Wizard.

2010-09-22 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi Geoff!

I'll do these steps as I explain them here, just to see that they still should 
work for everybody. I'll do all of these steps in the same order I am writing 
them down so everyone can follow along.

1. Open the Sendspace Wizard. That's a given, of course. :)
2. After logging into your Sendspace account, interact with the first unknown 
item after the toolbar.
3. Now, find the first unknown after all of the buttons which enable you to add 
a link for download. This is also the only unknown within this area, so it'll 
be the only one you'll see. It is also at the very bottom right if you use the 
trackpad commander.
4. Here, you will have two unknown items. I will explain what each of those do.

The first one is for local items- This means that you can arrow to a file you 
would like to upload, then move to the "remote" part which is the second 
unknown within the unknown you interacted with. I know this probably gets a bit 
confusing. When you upload a file, you have to choose a folder that you would 
like to upload to on your remote location (which is your account). You can use 
the command F8 to upload the file you have chosen in your local view.

Remote simply allows you to download and display folders and files on your 
current Sendspace account. Now, I will mention that I have not actually found a 
way to open folders within Sendspace, as the conventional commands don't appear 
to work for me.
So, let's continue.

5. When you interact within the second unknown (which is remote), you can use 
F7 to download folders. This is where I have not found  a way to download 
specific files. Control-click still works, however, as long as you remember to 
route the mouse. Mouse racking does not work in this Wizard, which is very 
important to remember.
6. Now you just route the mouse to the area within the table you would like to 
download or copy the link location for. You will have to use VoiceOVer keys 
here after interacting with the table, then route the mouse with VO-Command-F5 
then do a control-click. The command do copy a link is Command-l, though. I can 
briefly make a  list of the available commands below. They seem to work 
consistently, as long as you remember to actually move all the cursors. I've 
always found that I always bring up the menus to be on the safe side, 
regardless of consistency.

FOllowing that, I have briefly made a list containing the commands for 
Sendspace, though whether you dare to use them is your choice.

When in the "Remote" section, the following commands are available:

New Folder - Command-F
Download File - F7
Rename - F2
Copy Link Location - Command-L
Cut - COmmand-X
Paste - Command-V
Delete - Forward Delete
Properties - Option-Return
Send Folder Link - Command-E
Refresh - F5

When in the "local" section, the following commands are available:

New Folder - COmmand-F
Upload file - F8
Rename - F2
Delete - Forward-Delete
Properties - Option-Return
Refresh - Command-F5

If anyone would like me to demonstrate, I will, but you may have to wait a 
couple of hours before I am able to do so. I hope this helped somebody.

Also, just a hint. If you found your mouse focus does not route when using 
VO-Command-F5, try going all the way to the toolbar by stopping all 
interaction, then checking its position with VO-F5. This should fix the issue 
temporarily.

Nic

Re: Copying link in Sendspace Wizard.

2010-09-22 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi!

Just to correct my command list for the local section. I hope you caught on to 
that right away, though.

I don't mean COmmand-F5 for Refresh, I meant F5. I'm sorry for that little 
mistake. I'm half asleep at the keyboard here and I was only very brief when 
looking at what I had written.

Re: ABBYY OCR Software

2010-09-22 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Scott,

Abbyy FineReader does a great job from TIFF files. I scan books a double page 
at a time, using VueScan, and it gets everything in the right order. It can 
also handle more than one language within the same document.

It occasionally has a fit and screws up a few words beyond all recognition, but 
this is rare. There are no preferences so you can't tweak it.

ReadIris 12, on the other hand, is dreadful. It's much worse than ReadIris 11. 
It is also more expensive than Abbyy FineReader.

Cheers,

Anne

A Quick Question About The Multi-Touch Trackpad

2010-09-22 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

This may be obvious to some but...

I find that I'm using my TrackPad more and more to interact with Apple Mail.


All works wonderfully well except I cannot seem to open emails with the
TrackPad.  Can this be done?

Please keep in mind that I do not use the Preview Pane, thus, VoiceOver+J is
not an option.  

Presently, I press the [ENTER] key on my keyboard to open threaded
messaging.  

I've tried pressing down on the TrackPad when the Message is selected but
this does not cause the thread to open.  

Thank you in advance,  

Mark

I do think the Sendspace Wizard does work quite well, despite its shortcomings. 
They're really not that bad when you look at it. There is always a workaround, 
except when it comes to opening folders it would seem. You may not always want 
to download the entire folder, so that'd be nice if it could be fixed.

If anyone needs more help, though, you can just feel free to contact me via the 
information in my signature. Otherwise, I wouldn't have it in my e-mails. :). I 
hope some of this was at least somewhat helpful, and I wish you all good luck 
with it.

BT Keyboard from Amaszon.co.uk

2010-09-22 Thread Dave Taylor
Hi, I finally received the keyboard I ordered through Amazon.co.uk, they
just call the Mini Bluetooth Keyboard. This is the one with the arrows on
the A, S, D, and W keys. I must say, the reviews on all the lists have been
really helpful, this is a great keyboard and I'm very impressed. I didn't
think such a small keyboard would be this easy to type on. Think I must have
every possible angle covered for my iPhone now lol!

Cheers

I sit corredted, please excuse my error.  If you find an email you want on the 
trackpad, with your finger over the subject, (asuming you've interacted with

Sorry about the bad directions.  (More coffee, please?):)

Re: Basic syrinx question

2010-09-22 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi Ricardo!

Just hit the enter key. That's all you need to do to send any tweet.

If you want to send a tweet, simply go to the edit field. You can either locate 
this by hitting tab from the table containing tweets, or using VO-right arrow. 
Type in your tweet, then hit enter. If you want to see how many characters are 
left, you can simply VO-right to find it. It is passed the first progress 
indicator. Of course, it will count down as you type. Syrinx will also ding at 
you if you have typed two many characters when you attempt to send your tweet.

TO send a direct message, you can hit COmmand-Shift-D on  any user in the 
timeline. If they are not following you Syrinx will attempt to warn you about 
this, however it may sometimes be a faulty warning and you can simply ignore 
this. You will be placed in the very same edit field you send any tweet from, 
however it places a d then the user ID in the field for you so you can just 
type away.

To send a mention, you can  hit COmmand-Shift-R on a tweet you wish to reply 
to. This will place you in the edit field again automatically, with the cursor 
after the prefix for a mention.

You can hit COmmand-Shift-T to retweet something. Depending on your 
preferences, Syrinx may simply send this without allowing you to edit. To 
change this, go to Syrinx' preferences and select the "Application" tab. 
VO-right to the checkbox that says "Enable editable Retweets".

Good luck!

Re: ABBYY OCR Software

2010-09-22 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Andy,

Some scanners work directly with ABBYY FineReader, but my two Canon scanners do 
not. This is why I use VueScan, something I've been doing for a number of years 
now and I'm too old to change my ways!

I create a TIFF file with VueScan and set all TIFF files to open with ABBYY 
FineReader. I don't use TIFF files for anything other than scanned text.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: ABBYY OCR Software

2010-09-22 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Justin,

I'm pretty sure your scanner won't work directly with ABBYY FineReader. 
However, you can use Image Capture which is in your Applications folder, or 
purchase VueScan, which is what I use.

Whichever method you choose, you open the resulting file with ABBYY FineReader 
where you select the type of output you want, what to call it, and where to put 
it.

ABBYY FineReader is self-explanatory when you use it.

Cheers,

Anne

A Clarification Regarding my TrackPad Question

2010-09-22 Thread M. Taylor
Thank you Carolyn and Kevin for attempting to answer my question.

I am reposting the question because  i don't think I  was  clear in what I seek.

First, lets forget about the threaded component.

Second, what I want to do it to merely use the the Multi-Touch TrackPad, on my 
MacBook Pro to open an email in the Apple Mail Message viewer.

Keep in mind that I do not wish to jump from one area of the Inbox to a preview 
pane.

My Message viewer is configured so that when I am in any mailbox's Inbox, all I 
see on the Message list with which I interact is the Status, From, Subject, and 
Date of the message.

It is in this message list view that I currently select a message in the list 
by using the arrow key, followed by tapping the Enter Key in order to open the 
message in its own separate Window.

So, my question is based on my desire to no longer press the Enter key but use 
my TrackPad to "open" the message viewer in its own separate window.

I'm hoping someone out there knows how to do this.

Thank you all, once again.

Mark
PS
Using the Control key in combination with pressing the TrackPad did not result 
in opening a message.

Good day all.  My name is Jenny, and I am new to the list.  I have  
just recently acquired a used mac running OS 10.56, and am still  
learning my way around.  I look forward to learning a lot from this  
list, and hope to contribute something of use myself in the future.  
  I am also working toward the purchase of either a mac mini or  
macbook pro down the road, but as for now, this machine will serve as  
a good launching pad.
With regard to Abby Reader, I would also like to ask for  
recommendation on where one might obtain this program?  I am very  
interested in obtaining pricing information as well.


Thanks!

Re: A Clarification Regarding my TrackPad Question

2010-09-22 Thread Ricardo Walker
Hi Mark,

Hope all is well with you.  I have found that the only way to do what you ask 
is to do a control left click like Carolyn suggested.  This is done by holding 
down the control key and pressing the bottom left corner of the trackpad.  This 
brings up a context menu in which open is the first option in the list.  double 
tap on open and your good to go.  This being said, it's quicker just to press 
enter on the message via the keyboard.

An intel or a ppc?  If it is an intel you can update to 10.6 for $30.  Probably 
something worth doing.

Re: A Clarification Regarding my TrackPad Question

2010-09-22 Thread Ricardo Walker
Hi Carolyn,

Hmm,  Do you have the preview pane showing in Apple Mail?  I do and the gesture 
your doing is the jump to linked iTem gesture.  When you leave your finger on 
the subject and press control the gesture I just mentioned is being performed.  
Try holding control down first without touching the trackpad.  Now press the 
bottom left or right of the trackpad.  This will perform the control click I 
was referring to that open the context menu.  Then double tapping on open in 
the menu will make a new window open up displaying the message instead of just 
moving you over to the preview pane like I think happened with you.  Let me 
know what happens.

Thanks.

Re: A Clarification Regarding my TrackPad Question

Hi Ricardo:
Well, actually I think I must have preview panes disabled.  I either get the 
status info, or the message itself.  And I rather like it that way, in spite of 
all the caviats about opening mail:).

I'll experiment more with this and learn more.
Thanks.

 Thank you Carolyn and Kevin for attempting to answer my question.
 
 I am reposting the question because  i don't think I  was  clear in what I 
 seek.
 
 First, lets forget about the threaded component.
 
 Second, what I want to do it to merely use the the Multi-Touch TrackPad, 
 on my MacBook Pro to open an email in the Apple Mail Message viewer.
 
 Keep in mind that I do not wish to jump from one area of the Inbox to a 
 preview pane.
 
 My Message viewer is configured so that when I am in any mailbox's Inbox, 
 all I see on the Message list with which I interact is the Status, From, 
 Subject, and Date of the message.
 
 It is in this message list view that I currently select a message in the 
 list by using the arrow key, followed by tapping the Enter Key in order to 
 open the message in its own separate Window.
 
 So, my question is based on my desire to no longer press the Enter key but 
 use my TrackPad to "open" the message viewer in its own separate window.
 
 I'm hoping someone out there knows how to do this.
 
 Thank you all, once again.
 
 Mark
 PS
 Using the Control key in combination with pressing the TrackPad did not 
 result in opening a message.

Hi!

It's because you haven't focussed the mouse. Remember the tip I told you? Go to 
the toolbar if it doesn't focus, then see if it doesn't  refocus on the Wizard. 
If your mouse is focussed correctly, that won't happen.

 If re-seating doesn't fix it then maybe it's time to do that memory 
upgrade you've been dreaming about, assuming it isn't already maxed out. 
I've used AppleCare twice to ship a macbook for repairs and the process 
was quite good. They fedex a special box, you put it in and they pick it 
up again and then ship it back fixed. Of course a local Apple store 
would be a tad easier.

Hi Mark -- Can you tell us the year and model of your macbook pro? On most

your book is still under warranty and you live near an apple store or 
authorized service dealer you might want to get it in their hands instead.

 Hi Geoff!
 
 I'll do these steps as I explain them here, just to see that they still 
 should work for everybody. I'll do all of these steps in the same order I 
 am writing them down so everyone can follow along.
 
 1. Open the Sendspace Wizard. That's a given, of course. :)
 2. After logging into your Sendspace account, interact with the first 
 unknown item after the toolbar.
 3. Now, find the first unknown after all of the buttons which enable you 
 to add a link for download. This is also the only unknown within this 
 area, so it'll be the only one you'll see. It is also at the very bottom 
 right if you use the trackpad commander.
 4. Here, you will have two unknown items. I will explain what each of 
 those do.
 
 The first one is for local items- This means that you can arrow to a file 
 you would like to upload, then move to the "remote" part which is the 
 second unknown within the unknown you interacted with. I know this 
 probably gets a bit confusing. When you upload a file, you have to choose 
 a folder that you would like to upload to on your remote location (which 
 is your account). You can use the command F8 to upload the file you have 
 chosen in your local view.
 
 Remote simply allows you to download and display folders and files on your 
 current Sendspace account. Now, I will mention that I have not actually 
 found a way to open folders within Sendspace, as the conventional commands 
 don't appear to work for me.
 So, let's continue.
 
 5. When you interact within the second unknown (which is remote), you can 
 use F7 to download folders. This is where I have not found  a way to 
 download specific files. Control-click still works, however, as long as 
 you remember to route the mouse. Mouse racking does not work in this 
 Wizard, which is very important to remember.
 6. Now you just route the mouse to the area within the table you would 
 like to download or copy the link location for. You will have to use 
 VoiceOVer keys here after interacting with the table, then route the mouse 
 with VO-Command-F5 then do a control-click. The command do copy a link is 
 Command-l, though. I can briefly make a  list of the available commands 
 below. They seem to work consistently, as long as you remember to actually 
 move all the cursors. I've always found that I always bring up the menus 
 to be on the safe side, regardless of consistency.
 
 FOllowing that, I have briefly made a list containing the commands for 
 Sendspace, though whether you dare to use them is your choice.
 
 When in the "Remote" section, the following commands are available:
 
 New Folder - Command-F
 Download File - F7
 Rename - F2
 Copy Link Location - Command-L
 Cut - COmmand-X
 Paste - Command-V
 Delete - Forward Delete
 Properties - Option-Return
 Send Folder Link - Command-E
 Refresh - F5
 
 When in the "local" section, the following commands are available:
 
 New Folder - COmmand-F
 Upload file - F8
 Rename - F2
 Delete - Forward-Delete
 Properties - Option-Return
 Refresh - Command-F5
 
 If anyone would like me to demonstrate, I will, but you may have to wait a 
 couple of hours before I am able to do so. I hope this helped somebody.
 
 Also, just a hint. If you found your mouse focus does not route when using 
 VO-Command-F5, try going all the way to the toolbar by stopping all 
 interaction, then checking its position with VO-F5. This should fix the 
 issue temporarily.

Advice on Archiving and Retrieving old Mail Messages

2010-09-22 Thread Michael Busboom
Hi Listers,

Quite soon, I will need to archive all of my mailboxes and, in the future, 
refer to messages within the archive.  The server that I keep my messages on is 
an IMAP server, and it is getting full.

What I would like to do is archive all of the messages that I have sent and 
received, maintain the mailbox structure and then later refer to the archive, 
go to a specific message within the archive and, if necessary, respond to it at 
a later date.

I will soon need to erase everything on my current server, so this is important 
to me.

Is there a knowledge base article on doing this, and can an archive of an 
entire account's mailboxes be easily accomplished using the archive feature of 
the Mail program that comes with the Mac?

Thanks so much,

Mike

Well howdy right back atcha!  Good to run into you again!  So now I am

well as general exploration, I am making progress.  Now, if only I can  
locate the user guide. LOL  I would love to find something with a

Re: Copying link in Sendspace Wizard.

2010-09-22 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi Sarah,

That's right. Go to the toolbar and route the mouse and see if it routes. If it 
routes properly, try going to the table and perform the same trick. This should 
work. If it does not, you may want to try turning on the feature to read what 
is under the mouse. You will find this in the VoiceOver Utility under 
Verbosity>Announcements tab. The checkbox is labeled "Speak text under mouse 
after delay". It is recommended to set it to 0.4 seconds to get the fastest 
result. You can then try dragging around to locate the Sendspace Wizard window 
with the mouse and click it.

This feature is actually quite robust for a situation like this and usually 
helps.

Regards,
Nic

 Hi!
 
 It's because you haven't focussed the mouse. Remember the tip I told you? 
 Go to the toolbar if it doesn't focus, then see if it doesn't  refocus on 
 the Wizard. If your mouse is focussed correctly, that won't happen.

 It's not enough just to check delete messages from server.
 Not sure why Apple thinks you'd want to keep the messages on the server 
 but that's the way it's set up.

Re: ABBYY OCR Software

2010-09-22 Thread Mary Otten

Abbyy fine reader express can be used directly with some scanners. the problem 
is, how to know which scanners those are prior to purchase and finding out 
yours isn't one such. And you can't adjust the settings for brightness etc. For 
these and a host of other reasons, no, it is not like Kurzweil 1000. It also 
doesn't cost as much.

Re: ABBYY OCR Software

Thanks Anne. I decided to go with ABBYY and I was very pleasantly surprised to 
find it could scan directly from my HP CM3320NF scanner/printer device. Just 
took a quick test with it and seemed to do ok. I am not sure though if it was 
having issues with the text or there was foreign language on the same page, so 
going to check with my wife, but the words I could recognize seemed fine.

Re: transferring ms outllok mail to apple mail

2010-09-22 Thread Sarah Alawami
don't laugh but what I did was the following

1. downloaded thunderbird and transfered all of my mail in there and then 
exported it in to the approprate formats. 2. uploaded these using dropbox or 
coppying them to another drive.

3. went to apple mail and imported and then transfered all of my imported 
messages in to mail and created the folders. that matched the import.

Re: A warm welcome for Jenny

2010-09-22 Thread Jenny Wood

Allison,

Thank you for the welcome!  I have enjoyed what I have read so far,  
and look forward to the day when I can contribute something useful  
myself. :-)  I will have to browse through blindcooltech again for any  
mac-related podcasts.  I have found some very helpful podcasts  
already, and am always looking for more.

an ftp app for iphone?

2010-09-22 Thread Sarah Alawami
Hello. I saw some good looking ftp apps for  the iphone but not sure if they 
would serve my purpose.

I'm planning on uploading my convention podcasts right away to my podcast site 
or what I can of them and doing it right there from the convention next year. 
If the hotel does not have free wifi I'm thinking of transferring my finished 
files to itunes on my phone and using an ftp program on the iphone to upload 
directly to my podcast server and editing the show notes on the iphone if i 
can. Will the ftp programs let me brows my itunes library on my iphone so I can 
do this or am I screwed?

Thanks.

losing my place in preview

2010-09-22 Thread Greg Aikens
Hi everyone,
Is there something I can set so that I do not lose my place in Preview every 
time I shift away from the Priview window? Whenever I CMD+Tab back It takes me 
to the top of the page or document. I put Priview in 2 page mode so that at the 
worst I'm only 2 pages away from where I want to be but its really annoying. 

Any suggestions would be great.

Re: Copying link in Sendspace Wizard.

2010-09-22 Thread GEOFF WAALER
Hi Nic, Sarah, and other Send spaced out Mac users,

Thanks for the explanation, however after some testing I may be able to 
simplify it a bit.

The following assumes that you're running the current version of the wizard 
(1.2.14) and and extended voiceOver compatibility enabled under the options 
menu, and of course that you are logging in properly upon start up and 
previously uploaded some files or folders.

1. Start the Wizard -- focus is on the tool bar.
2. Press option-r to get to remote file view (alternatively its located under 
menu -> options -> focus).
3. interact with the table.
4. VO-up/downArrow to the file for which you want to obtain the URL.
5. Verify that the trackpad commander is disabled.
6. Press vo-command-f5 to route the mouse (optionally verify via vo-f5).
7. Press control while clicking the left mouse button.
8. The menu appears.

I don't know whether this is attributable to my  skipping the steps about 
interacting with the various unknown controls, but so far my mouse pointer has 
always routed to my desired file or folder correctly.  If it ever  doesn't I 
will followNic's suggestion and route to the tool bar first.

Very troubling that I can not display the contents of folders.  I wonder 
whether this limitation is specific to VO users, or is folder support not 
implemented in the Mac version? 
Thanks again to everyone who responded!
Geoff

Yes, I have come to that same conclusion.  I don't know, it seemed that since
