Re: Stanza
Hi again.
One thing that really wonders me in stanza is that every chapter shows up as
one large paragraph, and that is therefore I get the braille problem. Why does
stanza not show when there is a new line. I understand that it maybe can be an
advantage when you only are using speech, but there is no pauses between
paragraphs and after a period.
Is there a setting, that I have not been aware of, I have tried a lot of
settings, but it looks like the same in braille and with VoiceOver with them
all.
Best regards Annie.

Re: braille embossers?
Hi Isaac, IBraille is the mac OS software that comes bundled with index embossers. I find index software on windows flakey and IBraille hasn't been touched in 3 years or more, so my trust is a bit shaky. I was hoping some one would jump up and yell, "try enabling! I've had amazing success with this that or the other model." Preferably a model with USB so we don't have to fiddle with serial to USB adapters.

Re: My impressions so far...
Hi Ruud, Wow, you are off and running with the Macbook Pro. But knowing you as I do, and your wonderful ability to acclimate, I'm not surprised. You have been able to go places with your Mac in two weeks, that I was struggling to get to after two months. Good to see you on this list. I love my Mac and Amadeus Pro is what I use for recording, but I hook my Zoom and use the Rode NT 1A mic with it. I'm really happy you like your Mac. You can always install Windows on your Mac as a virtual machine if you wanted. Well, congrats on getting a Macbook Pro and have a great day.

Re: braille embossers?
Hi Eric, All this talk about Braille embossers makes me think of my Juliet. It is USB? I have a really old one that is serial. I spose I can get a serial to USB adapter, wait, I have two of those already. I know it still works, because I turn it on every now and then. But the legistics of how to emboss without Duxbury are confusing to me. Is there any way to accomplish this? My HP Desktop does not have a serial port, so I haven't been able to use my Juliet for quite some time. Yes, it is old, from the late nineties, but as we all know Braille embossers are hard to come by, so it's not like you can replace them when the next latest and greatest comes along. any thoughts. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide. Have a wonderful Friday. The weekend is in reach! Allison My birds are winged blessings, they help me soar!

Re: VO mute hot keys
Hi heather, F10 is used to toggle Mute on and off. F11 to turn volume down and F12 to turn it up. These keys have been available on Macs since back in the 90s but have just lately been made standard both on the Desktop and laptop keyboards to be F10, F11 and F12. Later...

Re: Stanza
This is some kind of bug with Braille. Large paragraphs are truncated on
webpages, too, and I think also in Preview. It's very frustrating, and I hope
it's resolved soon.

RE: recording for students
Hi. Yes, there are many choices. Look into the edirol R-09hr, tascam d07, m audio microtrack 2, etc. Even if you do end up with wave files, you can easily convert them to mp3 on the mac using a batch converter like switch. If you do insist on recording straight to mp3, I would suggest stereo, 44.1khz, 320 non variable bit rate for the best results. Don't go any lower than that with recording.

Spreadsheet Problem
Hi all, Up till now, I've been really happy with Open Office Calc, but I've come across a rather large spreadsheet that I would like to be able to use, which completely crashes it every time I change columns! I was hoping not to have to splash out on iWork, so can anybody tell me if they are aware of sheets that Calc can't read, and if Tables would be enough, or if I really will need iWork?

Multiple Keyboards
Hi all, Another weird one from me! I have and love an Apple Wireless Keyboard for my iPhone. I also have the Mini Bluetooth Keyboard which I have found OK but I don't use it often enough to really get used to it. Now I'm seriously considering a bluetooth keyboard for my Mac, mainly for multimedia control and web navigation. Will I have problems if I get a second Apple Wireless, or do they have unique IDs that would allow me to keep one paired to each device? If Yes, I may well divert my current one to my Mac and get a different one for my phone. I really can't think of a better way of controlling all sorts of media and websites and have it come over my hifi than using the Apple Wireless Keyboard!

Re: Multiple Keyboards
You can have more than one bluetooth keyboard paired to each device. SO, yes you could have a keyboard for your iPHone and another for your Mac. YOu can provided you turn bluetooth off on the device you do not wish to interact with, you could share one bluetooth keyboard with two devices. Again, you just have to turn off the bluetooth of the device you are not working with. However, just because having new toys is half the fun, I encourage you to go purchase another keyboard. :) On Oct 29, 2010, at 12:15 PM, David Taylor wrote: > Hi all, > > Another weird one from me! > > I have and love an Apple Wireless Keyboard for my iPhone.

Get a full size one for your Mac, VO is much nicer with the numeric keypad (and you can add more shortcuts to it too) On 29 Oct 2010, at 17:19, Scott Howell wrote: > You can have more than one bluetooth keyboard paired to each device.

Re: Multiple Keyboards
But I'm hoping that because the iPhone has one Apple Wireless, that a second one would be recognised as a different keyboard and therefore not be stolen by the iPhone bluetooth, if you know what I mean?

Just wired I think, but I like this as the keyboard has two usb ports which makes life much easier when plugging your iPhone etc into the Mac.

trouble with loops in garageband 11
HI all. I got my copy of iLife 11 today and have just been playing around with garageband.. Apple have done a wonderful job improving accessibility and it's now a lot more intuitive to get around. VO telling you the bar and beet you're on as well is priceless. However I can't seem to get loops to be added where I want them to be, so I'll outline the steps I took in case I'm doing something wrong. I position the play head where I want a loop to be inserted using the arrow keys, e.g. bar 1 beet one.. I then find the loop I want in the browser, using cmd+shift+L to audition them (I believe this is a new shortcut key). Then I turn off cursor tracking, make sure the mouse pointer is also on the loop then do the mouse down command. I then locate the timeline, move the mouse to it then release the mouse button. The loop gets inserted but in a random place - the last time I tried it ended up at the beginning of bar 7. Does anyone know why it's doing this? Thanks in advance.

Scanning with image capture
Hi everyone: I'm working with Image Capture, and Abbyy Fine Reader Express. I have what may be an unfair question for anyone familiar with these. I'm getting the programs to work together ok, but image capture insists on doing a double scan, and the entire process takes a lot more time than I was used to with my Openbook and pC. Is this simply something I need to adjust to? Or, are their any ways to make this process quicker and smoother Second question: Alex seems to lock up sometimes when moving between scanning and prepairing doccuments, such as when I go to open a file with Abbyy. Usually turning VO off and then on again fixes this for me. But, I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen. ? Finally, , how does Vuescan differ, and is it costly? Thank you for any info. I cant tell you how much I'm enjoying what for me is nothing short of trail blazing. It sreems like each thing I learn has me more intoa this litle electronic beast.:) Take care and tia for any input.

Good idea, but you can't insert them that way unfortunately. It can only be done by drag and drop as far as I'm aware.

Re: trouble with loops in garageband 11
Hi, Not in the new Garageband 11, just copy the loop from the browser and then stop interacting with the loop browser and go to the layout area.

Pro Tools M Power
Hi there, I am aware that the most recent version of Pro Tools is accessible now. Is that only the version of Pro Tools that works with Digidesign hardware, or will the M Power version of Pro Tools work just as well from an accessibility standpoint?

Re: Multiple Keyboards
To keep this in perspective, the keypad is not necessary and is purely user choice. FOr some this will be a real plus if they are used to using a screen reader that utilizes the keypad. However, quicknav takes care of most needs for the VO keys and thus the number pad as well. I'm not saying the number pad is a bad thing or a good thing, but is truly user choice, but again, not necessary.

Re: VO mute hot keys
There is a button to mute and unmute the sound. Use f10. If you press f10 and nothing happens you likely have your function keys switched to work with software functions. If this is the case, use the fn key and then f10. The fn key on the bluetooth keyboard or Macbook keyboard is the key in the lower left corner. On the full-size USB Mac keyboard it is in the six pack of keys above the cursor keys and is where the insert key would be on a PC keyboard.

Re: trouble with loops in garageband 11
what I do is while I am browsing loops, I copy the one I am currently on if I like it with command c. Then, I just press command v right where I am in the song. If you press play you will hear where you are in the song, and where ever you press command v, that's where the loop will drop. You can use left and right arrows to get to where you want in the song, then just paste away. I will try this other way though.

Re: quick garage band question
go to the start of the edit you want to make, and press command t, then that will split the point there. Then go to the end of the place you want to cut and press the same thing, command t and it will split again, you will than have 2 extra regions. Delete those extra regions.

Re: Convert video files on the mac
up until recently I used handbrake (with the FFX options installed).

Re: VirusBarrier X6
Hi teresa, This one is very accessible. A few unlabelled buttons which don't go in the way of it's features. Very complete in terms of options and customizability and best of all, it works really well. I haven't had an instance of a virus, but the other settings such as firewall, anti-vandal, anti-trojan, anti-malware or spyware and many other help a lot in understanding the vulnerabilities you might have left open to the net while giving you simple choices for preset configurations if you aren't the type to check everything they have. It also scans your other mac devices for all the above which is pretty cool, as well as dual mode scans for dual boot macs.

To briefly summarize, you asked about using the keyboard to select and copy portions of text, and you also asked about how to type accented French characters into a text document on your iPhone using an Apple Wireless Keyboard for your French class writing assignments. In text documents you can use the Apple Wireless (or other Bluetooth) keyboard to move by character, word, line, etc. and if you hold down the Shift key in combination with these movement key shortcuts you will select the character(s), word(s), or line(s) at the same time. Then you can copy your selection with Command+C and paste the selection with Command+V. So, for example I could move down to the middle of a text document by pressing my down arrow until I reached the section I wanted, and then I could move forward word by word by holding down the Option/Alt key and tapping the right arrow key (or backwards by tapping the left arrow key if I went too far). Now, if I wanted to select a portion of this text, I could hold down the Shift key and then press Option+Right arrow to select the next word. If I want to select more words, characters, or lines, I continue to hold down my Shift key and tap the movement key shortcuts. So, for example, if I wanted to select three words from my starting point, I would hold down the Shift and Option keys and tap the Right arrow key three times. If I wanted to extend this by adding a few characters to the end of my selection, I would continue to hold down the Shift key, but then tap my right arrow key -- possibly moving back by tapping my left arrow key to remove selected text if I went too far Then when I'm done with selecting text, I'll release the Shift key, and press Command+C to copy. If I want to paste the text into the Notes app or my Simplenote app, I'll press VO-H twice (e.g. hold down Control+Option and tap the "H" key twice) to move to the App Switcher and then navigate to my selected app with VO+Right arrow or Left arrow, and VO+Space to switch to that app. Then I'll paste with Command+V. For more details, see the archived post, "Selecting and Navigating in Note texts on iDevices with the Apple Keyboards and Simplenote App": http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg27394.html The main issue and, I suspect, the reason that no one answered your initial question, is that you asked about copying text from content displayed within another app -- not a text file and not editable content. I don't think you can do that with VoiceOver under keyboard control yet. You can't simply use your keyboard to move to the title of a song that is playing in a radio app and start selecting and copying bits of the title and artist strings with VoiceOver keyboard shortcuts. At least, I don't know how to do this under iOS 4.1, and I suspect that it's not supported. Under iOS 4.1 on the iPod Touch, I can't even selectively copy web page text with the keyboard in Safari. The best I can do (not using the keyboard), is touch the screen and manage to copy the whole selected page, then edit it in some text editing app. As for typing French accented characters using the keyboard for text entry on your iPhone and using an app like the default Notes app (or I use the free Simplenote app from Codality, since I can then easily sync contents with my computer and with my other iDevices), you can either switch to a French language input keyboard or type accented characters and special symbols using keyboard shortcut combinations that involved holding down the Option key. This is described in several posts on the macvisionaries list, but I'll paste in a quick summary here of Option key combinations to type accented characters with a subset excerpted from the Mac list posts: acute accent - Option-e grave accent - Option-accent sign (on an Engish input keyboard, this is the leftmost key below escape and above tab) circumflex accent - Option-i diaeresis - Option-u tilde - Option-n The above group of keys are "dead keys". You need to type the accented letter after the Option+letter combination, so to type an "e" with an acute accent you press the Option+e keys, release, and then type the letter "e". If you press "Return" without typing a letter, you simply get the accent mark. Other accents that are closely associated with particular letters are not "dead keys"; pressing the two key combination generates the special character: German eszett or sharp ess - Option-s Nordic slashed o - Option-o C with cedilla - Option-c "oe ligature" - Option-q For punctuation, you can also use the keyboard shortcuts (for the inverted exclamation and question mark of Spanish, and for specialized quotation marks): ¡ inverted exclamation mark Option+1 ¿ inverted question mark O
Re: Spreadsheet Problem
Can't tell you any of that, but I may be able to help you stop the crashing. Check in openoffice calc settings and see if automatic calculation is turned on and if so, turn it off.

Hi all, I'm curious if anybody here purchased the move addict 2.2 at the macupdate site. I managed to purchase it, but the download link doesn't work. Maybe they've had too much demand and the server couldn't take it. Here's hoping it is fixed tomorrow. Just wondering if anybody else was successful in actually downloading the trial, in to which I presume you enter your serial number to register it and make it a full application. I tried googling for the app but it sent me to the same place where I got the server error. I'm looking forward to getting familiar functionality from Windows on the mac side.

Re: move adict promo
Well I googled a download link but it's of marginal utility since the license won't be available for 24 hours. The disk image contains an accessibility folder which ironically points out that the app is inaccessible unless you also copy the prefferences application. I assume this isn't a huge show stopper, but have the impression that it won't be possible to play with it until MacUpdate makes my reg number available. Best regards.

Thanks, Geoff and Jenny. Not sure what you mean about copying the preferences application, Geoff, but I guess I'll find out when I check out the files.

Re: move adict promo
Hi Jeff, The program will run as a demo until you get your code. If I understand correctly, you can only move a single item at a time in demo mode. I don't know if this means that you couldn't copy a folder with multiple files in it. As for the inaccessibility of the preference menu, this is not a showstopper. The developer has created a separate application for Voice Over users to launch the same preferences window. Just copy both applications into the applications folder and you'll be good to go. Hope this helps. Justin On Oct 29, 2010, at 8:33 PM, GEOFF WAALER wrote: Well I googled a download link but it's of marginal utility since the license won't be available for 24 hours.

using the magic trackpad with vo off
Hello all, I recently saw a thread talking about a way to access the menus you can't reach with voiceover, such as the drop box menu. The method described talked about using the trackpad with the commander off. I just tried that, turned trackpad commander off and ran my finger around on the pad. I hear nothing. Not anything at all unless I happen to tap on some place and get lucky and an open app gets focus. But running my finger across the top of the pad, as was suggested by the person who said this worked for her to access things in the menu bar, including the otherwise inaccessible icons, gives me no speech at all. Is there something in the track pad preferences that needs to be set in a certain way to enable one to do this?

Re: using the magic trackpad with vo off
Hi Mary, You don't hear anything automatically with this method. You first lock the VO keys with VO semicolon. As you are moving your finger along the trackpad, occasionally press f5 to have voiceover announce what is under the mouse. Also, if you are trying to use this method to find a particular icon in the status menus, be sure to press ctrl f8 to get to the menu, then press vo shift f5 to take the mouse there. By doing this first you ensure that you are moving the mouse over the icons as you intended. Hope this helps.

Re: VirusBarrier X6
Yes, I found out today about a trojan that's making the social networking rounds, and I do use some quizzes on Facebook. The price of VirusBarrier is a tad on the steep side for my budget, but probably cheaper than infecting my and others' machines. This particular trojan is cross-platform, too, even on Linux. I apologize; don't remember what it's called. My guess is that it could be the start of a trend, hopefully a small one.
