Hi Alison.

Yes you can sync your contacts, calendars and address book over the air with 
Mobile me. I think its worth the investment, but you may think differently.

 Hi folks.
 Right now I tried to edit contacts in my Adress Book.
 A weird thing that have happened, is that the buttons for removing data is 
 greyed out, so I can't remove for example a phone number or adress or 
 anything...
 Have some of you experienced something like that?
 If so, is there a way to solve this?
 
 Thanks so much in advance.

Re: macvisionaries: voiceover and live chats

2010-10-01 Thread Chris Moore
Eric you are in good company as I went totally blind a few months ago too.

Not sure if this will help your problem, but have you tried turning keyboard 
tracking off?  You can do this by pressing VO+Shift+F3, simply press this when 
in the chat window (not the edit box) and then press VO+End if you want to be 
at the bottom of the chat window.

Re: macvisionaries: voiceover and live chats

2010-10-01 Thread Eric Oyen
tried that. I got no response from the live chat. it seems that something is 
amiss between safari and voiceover. I have posted a support request with apple. 
it may be a while before they respond.

btw, if you can, get some braille overlays for your keyboard, this will 
facilitate learning braille while you type. see my page at 
http://www.youtube.com/user/VisionlessOne

I talk about the keyboard overlays.
you can find them on amazon.com. frankly, they are a bit overpriced for what 
they are.

Why not get a demo of a screenreader on the phone? Also, if you have a
card reader, copy the installation file onto it, and then go through
the file manager on the phone. Hope this helps.

Re: some general question

2010-10-01 Thread Paul Erkens

Hi Robert,

How do you perform a control click? I've been looking for the answer this 
week. I now have ways to get around it but the actual control click using 
voice over still is a little mystery. How do you do it?

From: "Robert Hooper"

Sent: Friday, October 01, 2010 7:48 AM
Subject: some general question


I realize that some or even all of these questions may have been covered on 
this list already, but as I am the recent recipient of a Macbook Pro, I have 
come across a few things to which I would like some answers conveniently 
placed in one message:
1. How do context menus work on the mac? So far, I have been routing mouse 
to VO cursor and pressing CTRL+click. Is there a shortcut for this?
2. How do I get Voiceover to read the entire row of a table without first 
navigating to it and pressing VO+r? The reason for this is I would like all 
Mail message information spoken rather than just the date or subject line; 
and I would like it to do so without excessive arrowing.
3. DOes there exist a way to quickly check status items such as the 
date/time without first pressing ctrl+F8 and arrowing around the "extras"? 
This isn't really a huge deal, I'm just wondering.
So far this computer is working out great and I am very satisfied. I have my 
Ohio State University mail set up and it uses Exchange (which is awesome).
Could someone explain the process of "mounting" a hardware device? I know 
this refers to connecting and making available a hardware device, but what 
exactly is going on when such is happening?
Finally, as I am new to the Mac OsX platform, what are some suggested 
programs in which I may consider investing time/money (word processors, 
spreadsheets, general computer maintenance programs, archivers, audio 
converters, anything of interest)?
So far I have had one day with my Mac and, although I still must rely on my 
dell for important work while I learn the platform, I can easily envision 
myself straying further and further from WIndows as time progresses. I am 
glad this list exists, as it is a definitive and helpful community regarding 
Apple accessibility in general and contains a wealth of information on such. 
I appreciate every one of you willing to contribute and I hope to one day do 
the same:)

Sincerely,
RObert Hooper

Re: macvisionaries: voiceover and live chats

2010-10-01 Thread Eric Oyen
I am learning grade 1 now (on my own). the state seems to think that learning 
braille isn't an "immediate need". Frankly, I think it is (along with 
independent living skills and O&M training). They have on the priority 1 group 
but have deferred my status indefinitely (my case comes up for review again in 
6 months). I find that to be unacceptable as I need training for jobs I am 
being offered NOW. no training = no job.  Sometimes I don't understand why they 
are so penny wise and pound foolish. An employed disabled person is still a 
return on investment rather than a drain on the system.

so? how did you lose your eyesight?

Eric,

moderators .  So I will email you directly (unless the world really wants to

 Not sure if this will help your problem, but have you tried turning 
 keyboard tracking off?  You can do this by pressing VO+Shift+F3, simply 
 press this when in the chat window (not the edit box) and then press 
 VO+End if you want to be at the bottom of the chat window.

Re: 3 Questions for Snow Leopard Server Users

2010-10-01 Thread Esther

Hi Bryan,

I suggest that if you have questions about Snow Leopard Server that  
you join the mac-access list.  Last year the list owners completed  
transitioning their entire operations to Mac servers, so they're  
running Snow Leopard servers for their network services as well as  
using the Mac with VoiceOver for their personal computing.  I don't  
know of any other sources with this same level of expertise in Mac  
server operations using VoiceOver.  (Also, Gordon Smith produced the  
first really comprehensive podcast on Fusion and virtualization on the  
Mac, along with how to do the installations over 3 years ago for ACB  
Radio's Main Menu technology show.) Here's the link with information  
to subscribe to the mac-access list:

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Hi Listers -- If you're using SL Server as either a server or client  
OS would you mind answering the following 3 quick questions? I've  
done lots of research on this and read the literature, but am  
looking for some feedback from folks with real-world experience.


1. Using VO, are you able to access all functions of SL Server from  
the server console? (not a remote session)
2. Have you been able to install and run the same apps on SL server  
that you would run on SL Client?
3. If you're using SL Server as your client OS, do you experience  
any problems due to the fact that it is a server OS? For example, is  
it slower due to additional services running?


TIA,

Re: audiobooks

2010-10-01 Thread erik burggraaf
Hi,  It's not something you should have to know or be required to fiddle with 
just to listen to a book, but unlike most things in ITunes, this should 
actually be easy.

Simply highlight all of your audiobook files in ITunes.
Press Command I.
Agree that yes you do want to edit multiple items.
Make sure you are in the info tab.
Check the genre checkbox, and type audiobooks in the edit box.
Hit the OK button and in a few seconds you will hear the success bells.

Hope this helps,

Re: some general question

2010-10-01 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hi Paul,

it really just is a control-click. It means, hold down the control key and hit 
the mouse button. Basically, press down on the trackpad. Of course, the mouse 
has to be focussed on the item you want to click first, and in some instances, 
you actually can't use the VOiceOVer keystroke for this in which case you will 
have to use this method.

Re: Me and my KNFB Reader Woos

2010-10-01 Thread Hai Nguyen
Good morning VaShaun,
To install the latest version of the Reader, using a Mac, please do the 
following.
1. Please navigate with either Safari or Firefox to:
http://www.knfbreader.com
2. Navigate to the "My Reader" link.
3. Navigate to the "new user" link
4. Fill out your information to create a user account and activate the 
"register" button once all of the required fields have been filled out.
5. Navigate to the "Software activation" link and enter your trial serial 
number in to the necessary field and press the "next" button to proceed.
6. Download the latest version of the knfbReader software, the English language 
pack, and the English documentation. All of the files should save to your 
Downloads folder in your home directory.
7. Power on your Nokia phone and press the menu key, navigate to applications, 
highlight the "Reader" application and press the clear/delete key located above 
the number 3. When a message appears asking you to confirm the removal of the 
application, please do so by pressing the left selection key.
8. Once the application has been removed from the device, please connect the 
device to your Mac using the provided USB cable. When the device has been 
connected, a message should appear on the phone screen asking you how you want 
to connect. Please navigate to the "Mass storage" item and press Ok.
9. At this point, you should see a new disc drive appear on your finder. Please 
navigate to your downloads folder and highlight all three of the files needed 
for installing the reader and press command C to copy the items to your 
clipboard.
10. Navigate to the mass storage device in your finder and open the disc. Press 
command V to paste the installation files on the phone.
Once the files have finished transferring to the device, close the window and 
highlight the disc in the finder window and press command E to eject the device.
Disconnect the phone from the computer. and navigate to 
applications/office/file manager.

for instructions on how to use the File Manager on your phone.  Use the File 
Manager on your phone to open the file named knfbReader_v_6_4_0.sis or 
kReader_v_6_3_4.sis depending on the product you are installing.
11. After a short time, your phone will ask you if you want to install the 
Reader.  Press the Left-Select key to say "yes" to this prompt, as well as the 
other prompts that will come up.  If you only plan to install one language 
pack, you can install to the phone memory when prompted where to install (this 
is the default), but if you plan to install more than one language pack, you 
should change the selection to either "Mass Storage" or "Memory Card".  
Continue to press the Left-Select key to confirm the remaining prompt messages. 
 Once the installation is complete, repeat  the installation steps above with 
the language pack file that will be the user language, and again for the 
on-phone documentation pack.  Make sure to install the language and 
documentation packs to the same location as the executable, either in the phone 
memory, mass storage or memory card, depending on your phone model.  Repeat 
these steps again for each additional language pack you install, as well as the 
documentation pack file.
12. After installing the Mobile Reader and language pack or packs, you must 
activate the software.  Turn the phone off, and then turn it back on so that

Re: Fonts and line spacing in Text Edit

2010-10-01 Thread Kimberly thurman
Tim and others, thanks for your fantastic help.  I have a couple more questions 
if I may?  If I tab at the beginning of a paragraph, do I get the usual 5 space 
indent to denote a paragraph?  Also, is there any way to make my preferred font 
the default in text edit?  

Maybe I won't have to reach for that nasty windows machine next time after all.

Re: itunes question

Hi Peggy!
Yes, when you have opened Itunes go to the preferences by the command [ 
command+, ]
You should be on general then vo right arrow until you get to the when you put 
in a cd button!
This might be set on import cd and eject or import cd button!
If so select that button with vo+space bar and you will get a menu, just go to 
the one that says play cd vo+space bar again, then scroll right to the end to 
the ok button and press vo+space bar again and thats it!
Of corse you will have to change it again to import!

XCode compile.

Greetings,

I wanted to compile a "helloWorld" program in either objective C or C++ and 
apparently am not looking in the right place for for instructions on getting 
started.

The developer site indicates that XCode is included with Snow Leopard, however 
I don't see it recursing into the application or library folders.  I did see 
folders for sample scripts and a few programming languages in the library 
folder, but am giving up and thought I'd ask here for help getting going with 
XCode.

TIA for any pointers.

Re: XCode compile.

2010-10-01 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Geoff,

My understanding is that whilst you are able to code in xcode, running
the program in the iPhone simulator will not be accessible. The
suggested workaround is to sign up to the developer program, although
$100 does seem a little bit steep to here vo say hello world.

If you have jailbroken your phone however, I'm fairly sure that you
would be able to put it onto the iPhone without having to pay apple.

The ipa's (applications) that are on your phone are all signed y
apple. Once you sign up to the program, I'm assuming apple will sign
your ipa's there by allowing them onto your phone. However, if you
have jailbroken, you can install an app called AppSync which will let
your phone run unsigned ipa's.

Sorry it's not the exact answer; I just thought I'd let you know about
what you might encounter before you start.

You can also check out GCC and the associated tools.  There are Mac ports and

#o.t Can someone contact me off list about something please regarding bootcamp

2010-10-01 Thread Sarah Alawami
Hello. Can someone contact me off list regarding bootcamp? I cannot get the 
same power from the speakers as I can from my mac side. the sound card drivers 
it installed are from suris logic inc and 100 percent is almost like about 50 
percent on the mac side. I can get a lot out of my headphones but I don't want 
to where headphones across the room.

Thanks.

Using Drag and Drop in VoiceOver

2010-10-01 Thread Paul Hunt
Hello everyone. I would like to use the drag and drop feature to copy an
address book card to an envelope in the envelope template of Pages. Does
Drag and Drop work? If so, what is the procedure. If not, is there a
keyboard work around?

 

Thanks so much.

2010-10-01 Thread Scott Howell
Liam,

If you want to skip back/forward through a track, hold down command and option 
and use the left/right arrow keys. To skip from one track to another, use the 
left/right arrow keys. Of course keep in mind if you have quicknav active, 
these commands will not work.

Hi!

Just a correction.

Quick Nav is only used if you are using the arrow keys without any other keys 
when it is turned on.

Huh, Nic you are correct. I did make an error. If quicknav is on, you can still 
change tracks and move about in the track. Should not reply to messages when my 
brain is not fully engaged. :)
