some news on the e-sense front
Hi list, There's some movement on the haptic world, namely e-sense from senseg. If anyone remembers, these guys have the paired with toshiba to manufacture a thin sheet of conducive and transparent material bundled with a framework to allow developers to create haptic features on any application, platform independant. Here is their site: http://senseg.com I've set up a meeting with them in TOkyo to test the ware out. I believe this can be a major breakthrough for us blind users, as one of the list's member suggested it could make a really good braille output application and save a lot of people a lot of money. I was thinking in the line of interactivity for appications, games, and making it possible to feel around schematics, diagrams and objects in space. The API holds a lot of different textures already, such as grainy, woody, rigged, slippery and rough. Just as an anecdote, i was getting my fiancée to show me how angry birds worked. Now imagine being able to play these games with haptic sensitivty :) Hoping to be able to fly overseas in January to get something constructive out of it.

Re: the adobe flash accessibility petition
I'm glad that at some point Flash may become a thing of the past, but I suspect it will be several years before it happens. In particular with respect to higher education. I certainly complained to the university I attended and made zero progress. The solution was to simply require the instructor to come up with an alternate assignment, which worked, but is not addressing the issue. Even the agency I work for uses flash and I have tried to get them looking for alternatives, but people like flash because they really do not have to put out a lot of effort to complete a project. Just my thoughts, but as far as I know Adobe has no plans to make anything accessible for the Mac despite any petition.

Re: the adobe flash accessibility petition
Benjamin, Well thanks for sharing and what a positive correction. So, perhaps this means that Adobe will finally get their thumb out and address their other products? One can only hope, but what will still be interesting is the affect html 5 will have on flash. EIther way, maybe Adobe finally is waking up and realizing accessibility of the Mac is as important as windows and hey, I'm glad to read Linux is included and considered as important.

Re: the adobe flash accessibility petition
Case in point, if anyone has Facebook and plays Legacy of a Thousand Suns, the story is text based, but they use flash to add music and sound effects and also graphics. This is why I find it annoying because the story is actually quite good, I just can't seem to play it on either Mac or windows. Neither screen reader sees the flash.

Re: the adobe flash accessibility petition
Another case in point. The navy which is covered by Section 508 uses flash to make all of its mandatory training. Same problem you experience with facebook all screen reader users that use jfw are confronted with for this reason. The alternate form of the training uses powerpoint and sometimes even that training is done so badly screen readers can't read it either. So we have to drop back to Plan C which involves specialists in particular areas administering the training personally.

Re: the adobe flash accessibility petition
the only way to get adobe's attention is to hit them in the wallet, HARD. if all 15 million visually impaired in the US were to join in on a class action against adobe because of their flash player, that would make a hell of a class action and really get adobe's attention. -Eric On Dec 5, 2010, at 4:26 AM, Scott Howell wrote: > I'm glad that at some point Flash may become a thing of the past, but I > suspect it will be several years before it happens.

Re: partitioning a hard drive
The most important thing is to have the correct icon selected in the "table" of disks. Each physical disk will have at least two icons on the left, one for the physical disk, and one for each partition. The partition tab at the top only appears when you have selected the physical disk from the list. After you select the partition tab, then there will be buttons to add a partition.

How toburn music to a cd using iTunes:
hi marlana, i have to agree with louie and tim about being able to burn music from your itunes library to a cd. you can do the following: first, if your music is already inside of your itunes playlist you can go to your burn to cd press vo and the space bar to select the item. then before that you place the cd into you cd slot and it will begin to burn it. afterwards, you will hear a ringing sound then either your cd will pot out of the computer slot or it will stop burning altogether. in either case you will just place another cd inside of the computer and then it will continue to burn. i hope this helps you marlana. chenelle Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Hi chenelle, If you've imported an Audio Book from CD and you wish it to be placed in the books portion of the sources List, do the following: 1. Select the book or books from the music library and then press cmd-i for Get Info. 2. Press on the Options tab. 3. Press on the Kind pop-up and change it to Audio Book. 4. Press OK. All items that were selected will now be placed in the Books area of the Sources List. Later...

Hi Tim. Yes, I am delighted that I can play my music via apple tv. Only reason I burn a few CD's is to have good music for working out on my treadmill, which is nowhere near my apple tv.

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Hi Marlaina, Were your Ringtones downloaded through itunes? If so, then they'll automatically be moved from the iTunes Downloads area into the appropriate Sources List area. If you downloaded these Ringtones from somewhere else and they just reside in the Downloads folder of your Home Directory, then that's a different animal. For iPhone Ringtones, they must be in m4r format. I use Fission to do that conversion although Fission is not free software. There are other audio conversion packages that others on this list use. In Fission, once the conversion is made to m4r, it's format is adjusted and is automatically placed in the Ringtones area for easy sync to iPhone. HTH. Later...

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Hello, Here's a rehash of a message I posted to the viphone list a while ago about getting ringtones from the iTunes store and a little about creating your own from scratch. Enjoy, and feel free to reply with questions. Jim - Hey Everyone, I spent some time playing with ringtones this morning. Here are a few things to note. First, one can not buy ringtones directly from the iTunes store. Even if one searches for ringtones, what one can find and buy is an m4a (music) version of the file. To create ringtones with iTunes, one has to buy the music file first, and then pay the iTunes store an additional 99 cents before iTunes will convert that music file into a ringtone. Let me reiterate this, if you are going to use the iTunes store to get ringtones, you have to pay the iTunes store twice. Once to buy the music, and then again to pay for permission to convert it to a ringtone. Once you've decided to pay the extra 99 cents to the apple store, here's how you make a ringtone. 1) In the menu bar, go to Edit, Preferences, and make sure Ringtones is checked. 2) find the music file you want to make a ring tone out of, and select it. Again, it must be music that was purchased from the iTunes store. 3) in the menu bar, Go to store, create ringtone. This brings up a sound editor kind of like Goldwave. From here, you select the 30 seconds of audio you want. Note that voiceover doesn't work with this part, so if you don't have sighted assistance you're stuck with the first 30 seconds of the song, which is the default selection. 4) click the buy button. 5) The ringtone will download and appear in your ringtones folder. Finally, let me point out that one does not need to use iTunes to create ringtones, but other methods require additional software to do your music editing, and a lot of general fiddling around with files. here are the basic steps, without the details of how to use each program. Several of us on this list know how to use Goldwave and iTunes if you need assistance. 1) Take your music file and use an audio editor (like Goldwave) to create a ringtone segment. That is, a small (30 secs or less) slice of the music, that will be your ringtone. Note that Goldwave can read and edit AAC files (files you bought from the iTunes store), but will save your segment as an mp3 file. 2) Use iTunes to convert this segment to AAC format. NOTE: if you can't find a "convert to AAC" option in the applications menu, check your CD import settings and make sure they are set to import CDs as AAC files. 3) Rename the new segment file from whatever.m4a to whatever.m4r 4) In iTunes, import the .m4r file. control+o will bring up the import dialog, and then find and import the .m4r file. This will put the m4r file in your ringtones folder, and will sync it to your iPhone. I hope this sheds some light on this.

Re: hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Hi. I can answer both questions. harry Potter can be purchased through Itunes but as you may be not in the UK, don't know how you can get it as you may be able to get the American version if of course there is one. When you have a spoken file in your music folder, (I did this recently), do command I on it so the information for that file is displayed, then if you scroll to the right there are a few tabs, when you get to the option tab, press vo space then down arrow when you get to the type of file as music will be highlighted and down arrow to audio book and go to the save button at the end by scrolling right with VO right arrow. Your file will be moved to the audio book section in your library. Kawal.

Re: musicality
Hi Greg, Currently Musicality does not provide any way of adjusting the player volume. I had always assumed you would set the player volume once, and then adjust the system volume after that. Of course, that doesn't work if the player volume isn't accessible. I'll look into adding this in a future version. Thanks for the idea!

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Hi all! You can make ringtones with Itunes I mean chop a track down to ringtones size! There is a thread about this in the archives somewhere! In this thread Jim talks about changing m4a to m4r! I do not have a Iphone so the m4a's work ok on my nokia but someone said in that original thread they did not think just changing from m4a to m4r would work ! But if that does work then you can do it all with Itunes! No need for other software! :] Colin On 5 Dec 2010, at 19:22, Jim Barbour wrote: > Hello, > > Here's a rehash of a message I posted to the viphone list a while ago > about getting ringtones from the iTunes store and a little about > creating your own from scratch. > > Enjoy, and feel free to reply with questions. > > Jim > > - > > Hey Everyone, > > I spent some time playing with ringtones this morning.

Hello. I am looking for a utility to download videos from youtube. I would also like to be able to convert a video to mp3 so that I can get the sound out of it. There are various utilities for this task under windows, but I am trying slowly to switch to the mac and use windows as little as possible. Any suggestions?

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Hi Tim, Marlaina, and Others, For creating new ringtones from tracks in your iTunes music library, I think that the easiest way now is to get an AppleScript named "Make Ringable", which automates the process of creating ringtones from your own music. You need to download the AppleScript from: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=makeringable and place it in your user account under the Library/iTunes/Scripts folder. If this is the first time you've used an AppleScript in iTunes, you'll have to create the Scripts folder. You also need to set the start and stop time for a section from your selected music track to be used as a ringtone on the Options tab, before applying the "Make Ringable" AppleScript. Then the instructions are: 1. Select the track from the music library and then press cmd-i for Get Info 2. Press on the Options tab. 3. Enter the start and stop time for your ringtone in the corresponding text fields (this should be less than 39 seconds) 4. Press OK. 5. Since the track is already highlighted, navigate to the Scripts menu (created when you added the AppleScript) on the iTunes menu bar (VO-m and VO-left arrow twice), arrow down to "Make Ringable", and press return. 6. Follow the dialog window prompts. You'll be given the option to reset the start and stop times to full track play before exiting the script. The script will create a ringtone of the appropriate file type, and name of your choosing, and add it to your ringtones library. The original music track is unaltered. This should work on any track in your music library unless you have the early iTunes Music Store tracks from a few years ago with DRM that prohibits this. And for an easy way to determine the start and stop times you want to apply, get the RestartAt AppleScript from Tim's VoiceOver Downloads page: This will let you start playing any track in your iTunes library at the time you enter into the dialog window text box. This works the same way: place the AppleScript in the Library/iTunes/Scripts folder under you user account, then use it by highlighting a track and navigating to the "RestartAt" option in the Scripts menu on your iTunes menu bar. I wrote up a post for the viphone list, but with details and more time spent describing how AppleScripts work. If you simply read the instructions that download with the "Make Ringable" AppleScript, or that Tim provides on his web site, you don't really need more information, but if you want to read the viphone list post for more details, here's the link: http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg35015.html (Re: making mp3 into ringtone).

Re: question about games on mac
VMware fusion is the best solution right now. Did you increase the amount of ram that is given to windows? The default is 512 MB, which is not much. This may improve your situation. The other way is, of course to run windows from bootcamp, but I don't like this for various reasons. Nektarios.

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
I did get this working; they were m4r tones from an app I bought on iPhone which sends the link to the files as an email and you download it using safari. I took the plunge, downloaded the files, navigated to them in downloads and did vo shift m on each file and selected copy. Then I got really brave and in iTunes, I interacted with the sources table, navigated to ring tones, stopped interacting and did vo right arrow and got to the ring tones table; I interacted with that and did command v and voila, there before my very ears was the ringtone file I had selected. I love it when I can make this thing work! Marlaina On Dec 5, 2010, at 11:12 AM, Tim Kilburn wrote: Hi Marlaina, Were your Ringtones downloaded through itunes? If so, then they'll automatically be moved from the iTunes Downloads area into the appropriate Sources List area. If you downloaded these Ringtones from somewhere else and they just reside in the Downloads folder of your Home Directory, then that's a different animal. For iPhone Ringtones, they must be in m4r format. I use Fission to do that conversion although Fission is not free software. There are other audio conversion packages that others on this list use. In Fission, once the conversion is made to m4r, it's format is adjusted and is automatically placed in the Ringtones area for easy sync to iPhone. HTH. Later...

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Thanks Jim. I got an app on my iPhone that only offers m4r files. I'm glad I don't have to go through all that other stuff! Marlaina On Dec 5, 2010, at 11:22 AM, Jim Barbour wrote: Hello, Here's a rehash of a message I posted to the viphone list a while ago about getting ringtones from the iTunes store and a little about creating your own from scratch. Enjoy, and feel free to reply with questions. Jim - Hey Everyone, I spent some time playing with ringtones this morning. Here are a few things to note. First, one can not buy ringtones directly from the iTunes store. Even if one searches for ringtones, what one can find and buy is an m4a (music) version of the file. To create ringtones with iTunes, one has to buy the music file first, and then pay the iTunes store an additional 99 cents before iTunes will convert that music file into a ringtone. Let me reiterate this, if you are going to use the iTunes store to get ringtones, you have to pay the iTunes store twice. Once to buy the music, and then again to pay for permission to convert it to a ringtone. Once you've decided to pay the extra 99 cents to the apple store, here's how you make a ringtone. 1) In the menu bar, go to Edit, Preferences, and make sure Ringtones is checked. 2) find the music file you want to make a ring tone out of, and select it. Again, it must be music that was purchased from the iTunes store. 3) in the menu bar, Go to store, create ringtone. This brings up a sound editor kind of like Goldwave. From here, you select the 30 seconds of audio you want. Note that voiceover doesn't work with this part, so if you don't have sighted assistance you're stuck with the first 30 seconds of the song, which is the default selection. 4) click the buy button. 5) The ringtone will download and appear in your ringtones folder. Finally, let me point out that one does not need to use iTunes to create ringtones, but other methods require additional software to do your music editing, and a lot of general fiddling around with files. here are the basic steps, without the details of how to use each program. Several of us on this list know how to use Goldwave and iTunes if you need assistance. 1) Take your music file and use an audio editor (like Goldwave) to create a ringtone segment. That is, a small (30 secs or less) slice of the music, that will be your ringtone. Note that Goldwave can read and edit AAC files (files you bought from the iTunes store), but will save your segment as an mp3 file. 2) Use iTunes to convert this segment to AAC format. NOTE: if you can't find a "convert to AAC" option in the applications menu, check your CD import settings and make sure they are set to import CDs as AAC files. 3) Rename the new segment file from whatever.m4a to whatever.m4r 4) In iTunes, import the .m4r file. control+o will bring up the import dialog, and then find and import the .m4r file. This will put the m4r file in your ringtones folder, and will sync it to your iPhone. I hope this sheds some light on this.

Oops, I meant to also include the link to Tim's VoiceOver Downloads page for the RestartAt AppleScript: http://web.me.com/kilburns/voiceover/downloads.html That's mostly a convenience for easily choosing start and stop times -- or really for starting the playback of any track at a specific time of your choosing.

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
> Hi Kawal, You asked: Why can't we just put an mp3 file in the ring tone section of Itunes? all the other smart phones accept mp3 files as ring tones so I don't understand why the I phone can't? TK: Because the iPhone is not any other Smartphone. All the other Smartphones don't have VO either and Apple also has a habit of using higher quality media filetypes. The iPhone is simply different than the rest just like the MacOS is different than Windows.

Thanks Esther for this. It's very useful and once again, both you and Doug's Scripts come through with making things easier for all. I'll add this to my list of goodies.

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
just changing m4a to m4r won't work. You need to make sure it's short enough, and then once you've renamed your .m4a file to an .m4r file, you need to tell itunes to import it again.

Re: getting ring tones into my library, was hhow to separate your audio books and your music using vo within itunes?
Apple wants to motivate you to use their 99 cents per song service to get your ringtones. That's why building your own is so fiddly. On the other hand, that 99 cents per song helps to pay for voiceover.

Unzipping Files and Skype Recorder

Re: Skype and Adium Questions
Hello Chris, How exactly do I connect my Facebook account to iChat? Sry, I'm soo new to the Mac. LOL. Ezzy - Original Message - From: Chris Moore Actually I am starting to get a bit fed up with Adium, Facebook can be a bit flakey on there and not always connect. Plus I sometimes have problems navigating the conversation window due to a recent bug in Adium where am unable to move through the conversation without hitting the end key first. So I decided to give iChat another go as its been 6 months since I last used it. And I have to say I was very impressed how well it works with Facebook chat and how very VO friendly it is. Adium reads out a long number which is a friends profile picture, this drives me nuts, but iChat simply just says the person's name and announces profile picture without reading out a silly list of numbers which is obviously the filename allocated by facebook.. My only real gripes with iChat are if you have more than one account, they do not appear in the same buddy list, but appear in separate buddy list windows. Also, you can't connect to MSN/Yahoo natively within the application. Maybe in the future we will see these features added and maybe integration of Facetime, Twitter, Skype? I think iChat is a very under rated product, and does not seem to be given much backing by Apple of late, so I think we should add our support and send Apple some positive feedback on how it should be developed for the future..

Hay Colin, I never could find the burn to cd button as you instructed below. I always have to make a playlist, select the songs for the playlist, copy and then paste them into the playlist. Then I go to the file menu and select burn playlist to cd.

changed iTunes server but purchases don't go there
Ok, here I am again with yet another ask. Per excellent directions from this list, I have indeed changed my iTunes server to my music file server. that all works well; it repopulates each time I open it and that is fine. But, (and isn't there always a darned but), when I by albums on iTunes (I've bought two since doing this), my purchases are not showing up on my server. I still find navigating around my hd and to my file server to be a hit and miss experience. Can I somehow tell iTunes to put all my purchases in my external file server? If not, any tips and tricks about moving between hd and file server would be welcome on or off list. As always, thanks so much for the help!

Burn button removed in iTunes 10 [was Re: can I make audio cd's of iTunes purchased music]
Hi Marlaina, Colin, and Others, The dedicated button to burn to CD or DVD was removed in iTunes 10. You can find the option in the context menu for your playlist if you don't want to navigate to the File menu on the iTunes menu bar. You can also select the playlist you want to add songs to from the context menu of your selected tracks, if you don't want to copy and paste. I held off updating to iTunes 10 until it was required (for the iOS 4.2 update). Some other commands that I use, like the ability to reveal the location of a selected track in Finder, were not actually removed, but the shortcut got changed. This used to be shown with Command+R, and now Command+Shift+R is required to "Show in Finder: HTH.

Re: are there any free scaning to ocr applications out there!
Hi eddy: You can use iPhoto which will scan pictures in, but will not do any ocr. You can get Vuescan, (try it first), for $40, and it will do pics, text pdf and rtf. Just not much out thtere that's free. Also, I'm working with the developer because my Vuescan has gotten stuck on busy after having worked fine during the trial. If it works out, it'll be well worth the $40, as compared with krzweil or the FS products for hundreds. Good luck.

Re: Burn button removed in iTunes 10 [was Re: can I make audio cd's of iTunes purchased music]
Hi Marlaina! Sorry I did not know that burn button had gone! :] Ok you can select tracks 1, 3 ,6 ,12 but its a bit messy! I find [ for me ] it is faster just to pick each track and add it to playlist with vo+shift+m menu! Only if you have say up to 6 or 7 tracks to pick! If you are talking about a lot more than that the other method will be better!

Re: Double-Spacing and changing font with TextEdit
Hi Brianna, Tim, Marlaina, and Others, I wanted to add a suggestion that will make it easier for you to use TextEdit: once you have configured the spacing and fonts to your satisfaction, save these settings as a style file under a name of your choice. Then, when you want to create a Rich Text document with double spacing and a specific font, all you need to do is navigate to the ruler, select that style from the first pop up button, and start typing. I'll paste in old instructions for saving to a style file to TextEdit when working in Rich Text Mode, which I think are still applicable: 1. Interact with the "Styles" pop up button in the ruler and select "Other". 2. Then in the dialog window that appears, press the "Add to favorites" button and supply a name for the style. You can check the boxes for "Include the ruler as part of the style" and "include the font as part of the style". 3. To use one of your saved style files when you open a new TextEdit window, first ensure that your window is set to rich text format (you can switch to this from the "View" menu, or use the Command+Shift+T shortcut), then choose the template from the pop up "Styles" button in the ruler. 4. This will automatically set your page to the line spacing, font type, and alignment options that you set up for this style. Tim's web pages have always been my favorite place to point out to new Mac users. They're laid out the way I would want to lean VoiceOver. HTH.

apple tv and the remote app
Hello to all you apple tv users. I have just got mine, but I'm waiting on my hdmi cable. In the meantime, I have a question. I have the remote app for my IPod touch, and I understand that you can use this app with the apple tv, instead of the remote. This might be particularly useful when entering alpha numeric data in searches, but maybe for other things too? I am curious if folks have used that remote app with the A tv and what you think about it in terms of efficiency and ease of use compared with the remote that comes with the tv. mary Mary Otten motte...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: changed iTunes server but purchases don't go there
Hi Marlaina, I was just thinking that maybe your Finder is set not to show connected servers on your Desktop. This is the default behaviour when Apple sets things up but I prefer to see them on my Desktop so I don't have to use the sidebar all the time. To set this up: 1. go to your Desktop. 2. Press cmd-comma to bring up Finder Preferences. 3. It should be in the General pane if you've never changed that before. 4. Navigate through the choices and set things up the way you like. I usually check the box to show Connected Servers and, I'm old school so I tell it to open folders in a new window as well. These are all your own choice but I do find it much easier to get to my servers and such when they are showing up on the Desktop. HTH. Later...

CD burning with ITunes verses Simply Burns
To those of y'all burning audio CD's with both ITunes and Simply burns, which do y'all recommend and why? IN short, is there any advantage in using ITunes to burn audio CD's over Simply Burns? Seems to me that in order to burn CD's using ITunes, you've first got to make a play list of the files you want to burn. That's a lot of clutter if you intend to burn a lot of disks.

Re: apple tv and the remote app
Ah! A question I can finally help answer. I haven't used the remote so much because the iPhone app is so dang cool. It is completely and joyfully accessible.

This might be particularly useful when entering alpha numeric data in searches, but maybe for other things too?

Re: changed iTunes server but purchases don't go there
Hi Tim. Well, once I figured out that I had to close finder windows, I did see my file server. However, all my iTunes purchases are going into my iTunes music library on my hd; then I have to copy them to my file server. This is making me nuts, so I think I'll just go to bed for tonight and ponder the problem tomorrow. iTunes tells me it sees my file server, and indeed it does for I can play stuff with it but oh my, why do those goofy purchases go to my iTunes folder on my HD.

Re: changed iTunes server but purchases don't go there
Marlaina, Is the media on your NetGear server used by another computer as well? If so, is it accessed using iTunes as well? If this media is just used for the iTunes on your Mac, I'd do the following instead: 1. Start up iTunes with the Option key down. This will force iTunes to ask for where your iTunes Library is or to Create a new one. 2. Press cmd-c to bring up the connected devices. 3. Select the NetGear server. 4. Press Create New to create a new iTunes Library folder. Make sure to name it "iTunes". 5. Drop your music/media folder into that new iTunes folder. This folder should be named "iTunes Media". 6. Make sure in your Preferences that the path to the iTunes Media folder is correct under the Advanced pane. 7. If your library isn't populated, just choose Add to Library under the File menu and add this media folder. What this does for you is make sure that all the iTunes Library and media is under one roof. Then you shouldn't have any issues with purchased music going into the wrong place. You could also rename the iTunes folder in your Home directory to maybe "iTunes 2" just so it's not accidentally chosen some time. Let me know how it goes. Later...

Marlaina, You won't actually see anything called Connected servers, you'll see any volumes that you've mounted from those servers as icons on the Desktop. That is, if you mounted a volume called NetGear, it should now show up on your Desktop as an icon that you can open like any other folder. HTH. Later...

If your library isn't populated, just choose Add to Library under the File menu and add this media folder. What this does for you is make sure that all the iTunes Library and media is under one roof. Then you shouldn't have any issues with purchased music going into the wrong place. You could also rename the iTunes folder in your Home directory to maybe "iTunes 2" just so it's not accidentally chosen some time. Let me know how it goes. Later...

Re: safari alternatives? was, Re: mac vs jfw
Hi! Well, Mozilla is already aware and working on it. In fact, if you get the Firefox source, you can enable some accessibility features and some of it will work. It's pretty limited, but it's a step forward. Unfortunately, adding accessibility to Firefox is a lot more complex than you might think. That's why it's taking a very long time to complete. Also, last I heard, they needed help to finish their work as there is apparently not enough Mac people to work on it.

Re: Unzipping Files and Skype Recorder
Hi Ezzy, just press VO + Space on the zip-archive. Then you've got an unzipped folder with the music. From there you can import the files to iTunes. For recording Skyp calls and many other things you can use Audio Hijack Pro: www.rogueamoeba.com Regards Jürgen Am 05.12.2010 um 23:21 schrieb Ezzy Bueno: > Hi all, > > How exactly do I extract music from a zipped folder and get it to iTunes? > Do any of you know of a Skype recorder that will work with the Mac? > > THANKS, > Ezzy > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "MacVisionaries" group. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
