Re: How do you change margin widths in TextEdit?
I think I've managed to do this. Here are the steps I went through; you may of course be set to inches rather then centimetres. Select everything in the document with Cmd-A. VO-left arrow to the ruler and interact with it. VO-right arrow to "0.00 centimetres head indent ruler marker" and interact with it. VO-right arrow to change it by 0.1 centimetres, or VO-Shift-right arrow to change it by 0.01 centimetres. When I've got that where I want it, stop interacting with it. VO-left arrow to "0.00 centimetres first line indent ruler marker". Change that to the same distance as the first ruler marker. VO-right arrow past all the "left tab stops" to "31.75 centimetres tail indent ruler marker". Interact with it and move it to the left. Does that work for you? And do what you want? I don't know how to set this as the default. Steve On 29 Nov 2010, at 22:23, Tom Frank wrote: > Hi there, > I've tried, and so has my sighted wife but with no success.

Re: Recording for the blind and dyslexic, reader that runs on the Mac?
I agree the NLS excuses are so weak as to be pathetic. If someone really wanted to steal the damned audio, they have so many options including going to the local library and borrowing possibly the same book on CD and ripping it. Now gee, don't you think the local library knows people like me do this? Oh and gee, I never have given or sold any content I ripped, but I sure like listening to it on my iPHone. So, NLS might be held up by the law; however, I'm not so sure of this. I keep telling myself to take time to review the applicable law, but never seem to remember to do so.

Re: partitioning a hard drive
Before you partittion the drive, you should consider the partitioning scheme you want to use. There was a discourse about this on Tidbits two or three years ago. I will be receiving a new disk shortly, and will need to review all this too. I am getting one of those Western Digital disks that has a virtual CD on it with some software to encrypt the disk and do non-apple backups. If you research this topic some, could you post back the articles you find useful?

Re: how do i use the hot spots feature in voice over?
Trahern, 1. Navigate to any field, object or control you wish to set as a hot spot. 2. Use VO-Shift-with 1 through 0 on the numbers row to set a hot spot. Once you've set a hot spot, you can use VO plus the number to instantly move the focus to and speak the status of the hot spot. If you want VoiceOver to read the hot spot without navigating to it, use VO-Command and the number. If you want VoiceOver to automatically speak the contents of the hot spot whenever it changes, use VO-Command-Shift and the number.

Re: My spanish apple accessibility new list
Hi Rafaela, Do you know about the web pages of Jonathan Chacón Barbero? He is a blind developer who is on both the macvisionaries and viphone lists, and who has recently submitted an accessible Minesweeper game to the App Store. He also posts a number of useful articles in Spanish on his blog: http://programaraciegas.weblog.discapnet.es For example, he wrote about an accessible ePub conversion service: http://programaraciegas.weblog.discapnet.es/articulo.aspx?idA=1897 and also blogged about the AidColors iPhone app: http://programaraciegas.weblog.discapnet.es/articulo.aspx?idA=1759 This site might be a useful addition to the web page resources for your new list. Another thing your users can do is set up a translation bookmark from the Google Translation page to view any page translated to your selected language. This is only a machine translation, but it can be useful, and can be executed with a single keystroke if you save the bookmark to your Bookmarks Bar. You can read instructions on how to do this in my archived post to Jonathan. Note that the discussion topic is TextEdit keyboard navigation shortcuts on a laptop, and the description of how to set up the translation bookmarks is a separate topic that starts at the fourth paragraph: http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg17323.html (Re: how to go page up and page down in a text area?)

Re: Reading bookshare books on the mac

Re: a Safari question
If you hit the webspot create option sequence twice, this is supposed to set up such a point but I have had little luck with it personally. I generally will look for something searchable, or use the headings. If there is common text right before where you want to be, and search for it with VO-F, then VO-G will find that text again.

Re: how do i use the hot spots feature in voice over?
Hi Ezzy, I'm not sure if I understand your question, exactly. Think of it as having 10 points available to you, anywhere on your Mac, in any application. You can use any number hot spot in any application but you can't use number 1 twice, that is, in one application and also another application at the same time. If you wish to change a hot spot, you needn't necessarily delete the old hot spot. You can simply set a new one with the same number and now that'll be the new hot spot for that particular number. If, however, you simply wish to get rid of a hot spot, pressing VO and the hot spot number a second time will unassign that hot spot.

the mac and productivity
hay all: Well it is that time that I start considering a laptop solution and the mac is becoming ever more attractive for taking places and working. What I'd like to see however, is how productive the mac can be in comparison to windows machines. I have mys ystems with office 2007/10 down to a fine art, including footnotes, xl, ETC and do not want to have to develop completely new ways of working. I know of course that macs require some different ways of doing things, but I would like to have the same ease of use for tasks like translating, office working, research and using pdfs, ETC, which include a lot of copying from web pages, making tables, and all the rest. How does the mac stack up with the day-to-day productivity tasks you all require in your professional copacities? any podcasts or other VI resources on this topic would be very welcome thanks MJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: how do i use the hot spots feature in voice over?
Hi Ezzy, Ezzy Bueno wrote: I can use the same number on different wccbsites, right? For example, I can use the number 1 as a hot spot for Twitter and Facebook, right? How do I get rid of a hot spot if I no longer need it? I'll add a little more information to Slau's excellent response to explain hot spots. Hot spots are meant to be used for temporary purposes. They don't persist if you log out of your account, or quit an app, or restart your machine. A good example of setting a hot spot would be if you're reading a book or document in Preview, but need to switch to another application for a while, but want to return to the same reading location. Although Preview lets you set bookmarks, and you can also return to the app by switching through your currently active apps with Command-Tab, this only gets you back to the same page that you were reading. If you want to return to the same point on the page, you would set a hot spot before you left the page, and then use the command to return to that hot spot when you got back to the app. Hot spots can also only take you to places that VoiceOver can navigate to. It's possible to use other accessibility features of the Mac, such as Mouse Keys, to move your mouse cursor position independently of VoiceOver. I've used this to play sound samples on the Audible web site, by figuring out how many pixels to move from a control that VoiceOver does recognize to get to the player controls and click. (This keeps changing, incidentally, as they re-design their web pages). You can't save this position as a hotspot, because VoiceOver doesn't know how to get there independently. The hot spot is basically a temporary snapshot of your use configuration in an app. As far as easily getting to different web sites, such as the ones for Twitter or Facebook with a single keystroke, Safari will already let you do that. If you bookmark a web page with Command+D, and use VO +Space to press the pop up menu for the location to be saved, then select "Bookmarks Bar", you'll be able to access the first 9 bookmark entries by pressing Command+the number of the bookmark. So in Safari, Command+1 takes you to the location of the first bookmark on your Bookmarks Bar, Command+2 takes you to the location of the second bookmark on the the Bookmarks Bar, etc. The only thing to watch out for is that when you add bookmarks to the Bookmarks Bar, your newest bookmark becomes the first bookmark, and all the others get bumped up by one.

Re: the mac and productivity
I don't believe any of the Microsoft programs written for the mac are accessible using voiceover. The mac equivalents - pages, numbers, etc - are accessible, but you need to figure out if they generate documents that you can share with those using Microsoft products. That is probably what I'd pay the most attention to given your description.

Re: the mac and productivity
First, Microsoft Office is not accessible on the Mac, as far as I can tell. However, you can partition your harddrive using BootCamp, so that you can install Windows on one of the partitions, if you absolutely must use Windows software. Second, pdf files are very readable on the Mac, using Preview. Third, an office suite for the Mac, called iWorks, is quite accessible, as are certain other word-processing and spreadsheet applications (e.g., Bean and Tables, respectively). I hope this answers your questions.

It's about a quarter of an inch in from the left, about level with the centre of the power adaptor. Is that it?

vmware fusion and remap keys for screen reader.
Hi List. Well, I managed to install fusion and create a virtual machine with windows XP. How do I remap keys so that I can use my right command and option keys for insert etc?

Re: vmware fusion and remap keys for screen reader.
Use something like sharp keys or keymapper. I use sharp keys and it fits the bill nicely. Both are free products.

Re: the mac and productivity
Hello Jim and everyone, I use iWork09 to open and modify MS Office documents all the time, and then export them to their Office equivalents again. There are one or two problems such as incompatible fonts and tables in Word documents that have to be pasted into Numbers documents to be read and edited, but these can be managed. However, hidden text boxes have so far eluded me, but I don't think they're that common.

Re: How do you change margin widths in TextEdit?
Hi Tom, Steve, Jonathan, and Mark, Steve's correct that you can set the left and right margins in TextEdit (in Rich Text Mode) by interacting with the head indent ruler marker and tail indent ruler marker and moving them to the desired positions. As a general comment, you can save any changes that you make as a customized style. To save this as a style file, interact with the Styles popup button in the ruler and select "Other". Then press the "Add to favorites" button and supply a name for the style. You can also check any of the boxes for "Include the ruler as part of the style" or "include the font as part of the style". If you set up the spacing popup button to be double spaced, I think that also gets saved. Then, if you ever want to create a document in this style, when you open a new TextEdit document, start by navigating to the Styles popup button, press VO +Space, and select the style you saved before starting to input your text. Incidentally, a good way to figure out how these features work is to open a rich text format document with the settings you want, and examine the ruler marker spacings. You could also save it directly as a style file, with the option of choosing a specific text font (which might not carry over from your original document). To see an example of how this worked out for figuring out tabs, you can read the archived post from the old list, on "Inserting Tabs in TextEdit with VoiceOver": http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40macvisionaries.com/msg46637.html Use Control+N to read down the next post in the thread in Safari, and Control+P to read previous posts. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Nov 29, 2010, at 23:43, Steve Griffiths wrote: I think I've managed to do this. Here are the steps I went through; you may of course be set to inches rather then centimetres. Select everything in the document with Cmd-A. VO-left arrow to the ruler and interact with it. VO-right arrow to "0.00 centimetres head indent ruler marker" and interact with it. VO-right arrow to change it by 0.1 centimetres, or VO-Shift-right arrow to change it by 0.01 centimetres. When I've got that where I want it, stop interacting with it. VO-left arrow to "0.00 centimetres first line indent ruler marker". Change that to the same distance as the first ruler marker. VO-right arrow past all the "left tab stops" to "31.75 centimetres tail indent ruler marker". Interact with it and move it to the left. Does that work for you? And do what you want?

Reordering the bookmarks bar [was Re: how do i use the hot spots feature in voice over?]
Hi Brett, Brett Campbell wrote: Esther, is there a way to manually arrange the order of the bookmarks in the bookmarks bar? On the Mac, you'd have to use copy and paste to manually reorder the bookmarks bar entries. If you have MobileMe, and sync your bookmarks, then the easy thing to do is reorder the bookmarks in Safari on your iPhone as follows: 1. Open the Safari app 2. Double tap the "Bookmarks" button on the bottom of the screen (4th of 5, from left to right; so you could do a four finger flick down to move to the last element on the screen, then flick left, and double tap). 3. On the Bookmarks screen, flick right to your "Bookmarks Bar" and double tap. 4. Double tap the "Edit" button in the bottom left corner of the "Bookmarks Bar" screen 5. Run your finger up and down the center of the screen to hear the listed bookmarks. To reorder a bookmark, move your finger to the right edge of the screen. VoiceOver will say "Reorder bookmark>, button, draggable". 6. Use the VoiceOver double tap and hold pass through gesture. (You can do this from anywhere on the screen, providing the "Reorder" button has focus before you start.) Move the bookmark up or down on the screen to the desired position before lifting your finger from the screen. You'll hear a clink each time you shift position and VoiceOver will announce the change (e.g., "Moved above "). 7. When you're finished, double tap the "Done" button in the bottom left corner of the screen to exit edit mode. 8. To return to the main Bookmarks menu, double tap the "Bookmarks, back button" in the top left corner of the screen. 9. You're done, and you can exit Safari. HTH.

Re: partitioning a hard drive
unless you have some significant issues, you can single partition that drive (assuming you are using a 64 bit OS). otherwise, I'd slice it down into 4 500 GB partitions. that generally makes the cluster sizes a little smaller, and thus allows for better data storage. -Eric On Nov 30, 2010, at 1:06 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: > I'm just worried that it will be unstable in windows.

Re: Reordering the bookmarks bar [was Re: how do i use the hot spots feature in voice over?]
Hi Rafaela, Your Safari bookmarks are what Internet Explorer would call favorites. You can export bookmarks from any browser and import them into any other browser -- that's platform independent. Safari lets you organize your bookmarks menu into folders, and create new folders for your bookmarks. A special folder under your Safari Bookmarks is the "Bookmarks Bar". These are entries that can be displayed below your Safari toolbar, and this bar is used by sighted users to store their most frequently accessed bookmarks. Normally, I hide both the toolbar and the bookmarks bar (from the View Menu options) when I use VoiceOver, because these selections also show up in item chooser men, and also show up when you tab or Option+tab (depending on your preference settings) through selections when they are viewable. The exception is on my iPad, where I use these for touch navigation! The special feature of the Bookmarks bar is that the first 9 bookmarks placed in this folder can be accessed by pressing Command+a number key that is the number of the bookmark in the Bookmarks bar. This works whether or not the Bookmarks bar is hidden. If you have MobileMe, then any changes to either your iPhone Bookmarks or your Mac Bookmarks will get synced to the other device. HTH.

wifi-problem since ios 4.2
Hello, I think, since ios-version 4.2, I have some network problems on my iphone4. When I come into my house, normally the iphone should connect automatically to my authorized network that's encrypted with a wpa2-key. Since last week, one or more days after the update, I discover that the Iphone isn't connecting automatically to my network when I enter my house. On the same time, my macbook is connected to the network immediately. When I select my network out of the list that's coming up, I receive the message : "no connection possible with network my_network" The system isn't always asking for a password , it gives only a dialogue with a ok-button, to accept this message. I discover today that , sometimes, the iphone is connected to the network while giving the error above. On other moments, it doesn't connect to the network as long as the message appear.. I control this also by opening the program filer, to transfer files to my iphone with a wifi-connection. There I can see if the iphone has a ip-address or not. It can help to set in the properties of my network on the iphone that the iphone should forgot the network "my_network". This doesn't mean that the problem is solved but, sometimes it's solved for one time. Since the install of the update , ˜I have already repaired the iphone by re-installing the software completely and I putted back the data on my iphone4 from inside itunes on me mac. So, I was thinking about what I can do, some questions: 1. Is this a problem that some of you have also? 2. Since a iphone is like a computer, perhaps there should be a way to read log-files of the iphone? 3. are there other diagnostic tools available for the iphone4 that can help to know what's happening? 4. I think not but perhaps, could any software, installed on my iphone , cause this problem? Any hints should be very appreciated.

Re: vmware fusion and remap keys for screen reader.
You would make the changes inside the virtual machine. The mac side is unimpacted. This is critical to remember because your VM is for all intense and purposes an isolated sandbox.

Re: wifi-problem since ios 4.2
Your problem is most likely Apple or your routers implimentation of AES cryptography. On your router set your security to wpa/wpa2 and set your crypt function to tkip/aes or auto not just AES. That should fix the issue.

Re: partitioning a hard drive

Re: where is the download of the ios update saved
Theres not really any point in backing up the ios installers. 1: If your thinking of being able to downgrade to something older using this method then it won't work. 2: If you're worried that you might some how break your phone and are wanting to preserve the files to do a factory restore theres no point since iTunes takes care of this for you.

Dropbox via LAN
Hi folks. Maybe someone here can tell me, where can I see if and/or set up my Dropbox to sync via LAN on the Mac? Actually I can't find the settings for dropbox on the Mac :( I've also tried Google in many variations, but nothing to find there too... I also would like to see how far the process has gone, and how long time it is left, where can I see that? Hope to here from some of you ASAP.

Re: problems saving using save as in text edit and pages
Tim, I tried this three times as a test. Twice it did not work, once it did. It seems arbitrary, or is it just dang contrary! On Nov 29, 2010, at 5:48 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote: Hi Marlaina, I've seen this sort of thing happen when there is something selected in the File Table of the Save dialog. If it is a file, then it will not save and if it is a folder, it simply opens the folder instead of saving. If you hit the Save button a second time once the folder has opened, it will save but you may not know exactly where it went. I'm guessing that this is your issue. Try this: • Press cmd-shift-s for Save As. • Just begin typing the filename instead as VO will usually be focused there anyway. • Press VO-End (that's FN-VO-End on a laptop) which will automatically take you to the Save button. • If you need to get back to change it to a Word document, then VO-left to get there. • You can then simply press return to save it. It will usually save in the same location as your original file but if you need to change that then do the following to ensure that nothing is selected when you press the Save button. • Interact With the File table. • Press VO-cmd-space on any file/folder in the table. • If it says selected then do the above step again otherwise Stop Interacting With the Table and make your way to the Save button and press it.

Re: something I'm contemplating
Hi Sarah: Sounds like probably a fifth gen nano. I have a 4th gen that has Voiceover it is also an eight gig. So, I know that part will work. I suspect the nano will not have skype capability. It would have to tie into a wifi network, and I'm not certain nanos do. Hope tat helps a little On Nov 30, 2010, at 5:06 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: > Hello to all.

Re: something I'm contemplating
No. The software on the Nano is completely different than the software on the iOS devices. I'm not sure the software on the most recent Nano is the same or to what degree it is like iOS 4.X.

Re: something I'm contemplating
As far as I'm aware the radio bit only works when you have the headphones/earbuds in as it uses those as a receiver. It's all a matter of what you want to do with it in the end, if it has a camera that's cool, but for skype you'd definitely need a built-in mic or have the option of using an external one. I think the Nano is more of a traditional music/video player compared to let's say the Touch. Then again, sometimes you just want music or radio without too much other distractions and I think the Nano would be great for that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Weird Problem with a Focus 40 BT Display
Hi, all, I'm not sure if this is a vO issue or a braille display one. I just got an exchange unit from FS and I'm trying it out. The Bluetooth works great, but when I plug in the USB, the Braille display goes to sleep. VO is still accepting input keys, but the display is dead. It works when not connected to VO. Anyone have ideas, i.e. whether I should call fS tech support or play with VO options?

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Any assistance would be much appreciated. I have tried with Safari and Webkit. I hope you are having a great day.

Re: How do you change margin widths in TextEdit?
Hi there Esther, I can do everything but move the left margin to the right less than one inch and the right margin to the right less than for a one inch margin. I tried creating a document in pages the way I want it, then saved it and then tried to open it in TextEdit to check out the margins; I could not save the document in Pages as a rich text document and when I tried to open it in TextEdit it would only open as a PDA thumbnail.. I am thinking that TextEdit just won't let me create margins that are less than one inch from the sides or top or bottom.

Re: How do you change margin widths in TextEdit?

Alex pronouncing weirdly at times
Does anybody else run into the situation where Alex pronounces a capital letter then the rest of the word, like H ello. This drives me crazy and I don't know how to fix it. He will say my name as M arlaina for example. Thanks for any help saving my poor sanity! Marlaina -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: question on how to move the mouse
This depends on how you want to move it. Pressing control option command F5 will move the mouse to the item the voice over cursor is on. You can also set the mouse to follow the voice over cursor, this is a setting in voice over utility.

Re: Alex pronouncing weirdly at times
Hi Marlaina: I think this is more a function of how things are written. I've noticed mine doing the same thing, and thought perhaps people are sometimes shifting on the second letter while typing quickly. But, let's see what other feedback we get.
