very peculiar behavior change with audible.com
Just now, when I went to Audible.com I experienced something that never before happened. I opened the page, and, suddenly, all the samples on the page started to play at the same time. When they all finally stopped, I took a look at the page and noticed numorous audio element control tool bars all over the page. I mean they were all over the place. These audio element control tool bars are doubtless familiar to you if you've pressed VO+space on an mp3 file from say www.blindcooltech.com to play the file right off the servers. anyhow, I decided to take a closer look, so, I searched for a title I knew was there; I mean on the site. When I found the book I was looking for, I nnavigated to it and, guess what, next to the word "sample", there was an audio element control tool bar. At this point, I would have to conclude that the people at audible have heard us and made some major change to their page so that we no longer need to use the mouse method to play samples. As a qualifier, I must hasten to add that I have the anti flash extension, (I forgot the proper name of it for the moment), and, when I looked at the settings I had made for it, I found that it was set to buffer and start playing the video content automatically. With this in mind, I have two questions. 1. For those of you who also have this flash extension, have y'all noticed this difference in audible.com? 2. Now, for those of you without the extension, are you still needing to play samples using the mouse method? Thanks. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

Re: very peculiar behavior change with audible.com
Hi ray, I can confirm that I see this new behavior using click to flash, and that temporarily disabling the extension brings things back to the way they used to be. Either a recent click to flash update has added support for converting audible samples to html 5 elements, or the folks at audible have switched to using a different flash player that the extension already knows how to convert. Either way, this is excellent news. Thanks for the tip. On Dec 28, 2010, at 1:28 AM, Ray Foret Jr wrote: Just now, when I went to Audible.com I experienced something that never before happened.

Re: very peculiar behavior change with audible.com
Thanks Justin, Looks like we've got ourselves a very excellent confirmation here. This will especially be useful to newbe users of Macs; because, now, they won't need to struggle as we did to find the mouse method for playing audible samples. That click to flash extension sure looks to me like it's more than proving its worth. just one small detail. I'd recommend setting it to buffer but not play automatically. Otherwise, every single sample on any audible page will start playing at the same time. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now A Very Proud and very happy Mac user!!!

Re: apple TV and choppy speech
Regarding having the hdmi and optical cables connected at the same time, the manual for our surround receiver specifically says that the hdmi cable only carries video not audio, so if you want audio through the surround receiver, you have to connect the digital optical cable. Cery annoying, especially as this was not a cheap home theater in a box set up, and you'd think they'd have the more or less standard set up.

Re: Playlists questions
You should be able to manually sync playlists back from a device in iTunes. There should be an option for that under the Music tab control Reordering playlists is easy. Cut, copy and paste commands, along with your arrow keys, will reorder songs. Useful for making CDs as well. Deleting the playlist or songs within the list won't remove them from your computer or iPod. This will only remove it from the playlist. Deleting files must be done within the Music Library view.

Re: Pairing a Phonak Icom hearing device with a Macbook Pro via Bluetooth?
Well, we're making progress. I found the pairing button, thank you for describing where it was. However, this is what I get when I hold it down: Attempting to pair with “00-0f-59-12-2e-c4”. Then, after a few seconds: The pairing attempt was unsuccessful. Make sure your device is in range of this computer, turned on and “discoverable.” When ready, click Continue to try again. This was the result of several attempts. *shrug* No joy, and I don't know what to do about that. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Pairing a Phonak Icom hearing device with a Macbook Pro via Bluetooth?
Nick: Success! I did get the Icom to pair with the Macbook Pro. However, the quality of sound via the bluetooth link was quite poor (especially as concerns voiceover, which sounded choppy and on the verge of breaking up), and it was stubbornly in mono, even when I checked the "use as stereo headset," option. In fact, I had to reboot to get it to work at all. There's also a noticeable lag, but I'm most distressed by the sounds being in mono. There are no controls listed for it in Sound Preferences. Any suggestions for making it stereo and improving the quality of the sound a bit? Thanks for all the help you've been so far. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: transferring music into itunes library and then to my iphone
Hi Deneise: Should be pretty easy transfer. If the material you want to bring in isn't on your mac, copy the folder(s) to a flash drive and bring that to the Mac. Now, use the copy and paste to put them into your "automatically add to iTunes" folder. This is located in home, under music-itunes. If I've confused you, you can email me off list and I'll try harder to confuse you more.:) Take care. Oh, BTW: Once thos are added, they'll appear in your itunes library, and you can make whatever playlist(s) you wan to. They'll go to your iPhone the next time you plug it in and sync.

Click to flash is an extension to Safari which, of course, also works on Web Kit. To use extensions, you need to inable the developer menu in Safari. this is done through the advanced tab off the preferences menu. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

Re: very peculiar behavior change with audible.com
Hi Carolyn, You need to download the click to flash extension for your web browser. You can get it here https://extensions.apple.com/ Once on the page, open the iTem chooser and type in flash. Then go the the click to flash heading. Then a little below that is the download link. Once that is done, open safari or webkit and go to preferences. Then select extensions from the toolbar. Now make sure extensions are enabled. There will also be a list containing the extensions you have installed. Click to flash should be in here. VO right arrow from the list and interact with the extension info group. In here you will find the setting of the extension you selected from the previous list. Make sure click to flash is on. hth Ricardo Walker rwalker...@gmail.com Twitter, Skype, and AIM: rwalker296 Google Voice: 1-646-450-2197 On Dec 28, 2010, at 12:45 PM, Carolyn Haas wrote: > Hi Ray and list: > I must confess, I was afraid to dabble in the anything to do with flash, so > ignored that thread.

To Those Who Care About Aurify
Hello Fellow Aurify Players, I would like to convene a live, free, telephone conference with those of you who are interested in doing so. Only so much can be accomplished with mailing lists. So, as a prelude to this, if interested, please send me a contact telephone number, off-list, to: mk...@ucla.edu Unless you deem it obvious to me as I live in southern California, such as providing a telephone number that begins with the area code of 714, 213, 310, 818, etc, please let me know in which city, state, province, country you reside and the best time to call. Also, indicate if the telephone number is either a land-line or a cell phone. I just want to do some brain storming before I talk to the good folks at Punk-Pie. I hope to hear from all interested parties, soon. Thank you. Mark PS Remember to reply off-list. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Sent from my iPhoneCheree Heppe here: At work, we use a Windows platform and I use Window-Eyes, a screen reader that allows me to access the computer. My work computer had a crash that will require our I T person to re-build it. Am I stuck? I would have been, but, with my Apple Bluetooth keyboard and IPhone, I am doing my web searching as I would normally do, except I am using the IPhone. Who would have dreamed of such accessibility a year ago? This is a definite save for me, especially since this work computer broke down while our I T person is out on holiday. Oh, yay, Apple!!

Re: locking the iPhone screen in horizontal layout?
Ah ok. Then it should work. What exactly is happening when you open the app switcher, then do a 3 finger swipe to the right?

RE: locking the iPhone screen in horizontal layout?
Portrait layout is the only layout in which you can lock the phone--there isn't an option to lock the phone in landscape layout. If you press the home button of the iPhone twice quickly, you will be placed in the App switcher. Perform a three-finger flick right to scroll to page one of the screen. After reaching page one, use a single-finger flick left or right until you find the button labeled "lock orientation changes". If you double-tap this button, the phone will always remain in portrait layout. Repeat the above steps to unlock the orientation changes--the button will this time be called "unlock orientation changes". I hope this clarifies the matter.

Re: Pairing a Phonak Icom hearing device with a Macbook Pro via Bluetooth?
Hi, Nick: Okay, more progress! If I first go to the bluetooth menu on my Macbook and check the "Use this device, stereo," option, the Bluetooth eventually pairs in stereo and sounds pretty good. There's still a delay, and sometimes VoiceOver is not audible at first, and sometimes my system sounds still play through the Mac's speakers, but the most distressing thing is that I cannot get the Icom to stay "locked in," to the signal. After three seconds of silence, the Icom makes its little tones and goes back to normal mode. I tried pressing and releasing the power button momentarily, like you do to lock it in "patchcord mode," but no joy. So, right now, I can see where, if I wanted to play something that would stream continuously for a long period of time, I can see how it would be cool, but maybe you can give me tips to get over my other problems. You've really helped me out so far, and it's essentially working, except for those quirks. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

3 questions re the music player on the ipod Touch
Hi all, I'm the mostly happy owner of a new ipod touch, but have three questions about the music player. 1. I can't seem to shake it and get it to shuffle. Shake to Shuffle is checked in settings. But, I've shaken it until I've practically thrown it, and no joy. Any suggestions? 2. How on earth does the table index work? I've opened it and selected a letter, but the artists in the selected letter don't show up on the screen. 3. It looks like you're supposed to be able to edit which buttons show up in the player. I've selected more, then Edit, and the buttons say Draggable, but tapping and holding doesn't seem to do anything. What's the deal? thanks, Donna -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: locking the iPhone screen in horizontal layout?
Thank you! What I didn't see or nobody said, not sure which, is the gesture after the three-finger swipe. It is now locked and lovely. Marlaina On Dec 28, 2010, at 10:37 AM, Robert Hooper wrote: Portrait layout is the only layout in which you can lock the phone--there isn't an option to lock the phone in landscape layout. If you press the home button of the iPhone twice quickly, you will be placed in the App switcher. Perform a three-finger flick right to scroll to page one of the screen. After reaching page one, use a single-finger flick left or right until you find the button labeled "lock orientation changes". If you double-tap this button, the phone will always remain in portrait layout. Repeat the above steps to unlock the orientation changes--the button will this time be called "unlock orientation changes". I hope this clarifies the matter.

Cheree Heppe here: Ben's comments struck me as having a disconnect with the general blindness experience. If I didn't think almost all of the listers here are blind, I would hazard that Ben reacted the way an uninformed sighted person would react who has no idea what it means to lose the use of essential access technologies. Beyond that, in my messages, I seem to vacillate between adding my message in front of the "sent from my IPhone," and after the "sent from my IPhone" message. Any idea why that happens?

Re: apple tv and choppy speech
It is possible to connect the HDMI to the television and have the optical audio go to the receiver. I don't know if that would effect the quality of the signal though... I actually resolved my sound issue last night. I believe that the digital to analog converters on my receiver are not very good, so no matter what I ran through the optical, the audio would sound quite compressed. I found that a work around for me was to use a y chord to take audio from the line out of the tv and have it go into the auxiliary input of the receiver. The sound is noticeably better this way. Hope this makes sense to someone. I'm just glad to have good audio in the living room.

Re: almost happy new year and some advice
This is BS. Macafee has about as much clue and product quality as the burnouts they hire in radio shack. Apple has a Unix underpinning which means if set up correctly virus code won't propegate. Windows is much easier because permissions aren't handled correctly among other massive security holes. Apple uses BSD under the hood which doesn't have these issues from the ground up. Sure there could be holes but there will be no where near as many as there are in Microsoft products. Start at the kernel and work your way back.:) More important though, mind your info sources. Macafee really is the laughing stock of the information security world. Remember Intel bought them for a very small bit of code they can add to their chips. The rest will probably be spun off to suckers or shut down. If you're really interested in security products and good opinion check out Sourcefire, Juniper Networks or on the software side check out Metasploit.

Re: Using new Mac Mini without a display connectedn
Hi Vaughn, I had the same positive experience you mentioned when I first set up my mid-2010 Mac Mini, but at some point I started to have the VO issues that other folks have mentioned regarding the previous generation of Mini. I then connected a monitor using the included HDMI to DVI converter and the problem went away. I'm not sure exactly when the VO slowness started. It might have been after the 10.6.5 update, but not positive. I'm wondering what might be different between your mini and mine. Can you tell me what Mini model you have, what keyboard/mouse you're using, what other peripherals you have connected, and what OS version you have? I've got the Mini 2.66 "server" version running 10.6.5 client, not server. I use the Apple USB extended keyboard, bluetooth magic trackpad, a wi-fi connection and a Samsung USB DVD multi drive.

Re: almost happy new year and some advice
Yep, i completely agree with all your points, but... All the arguments you pointed out are the ones i myself point out when discussing security with PC owners. The unix base, BSD, posix permissions which are better laid out than windows ACLs, the fact that windows was not initially made for internet communications whereas macs started that way, and the list goes on. Yet i can't stop myself from thinking there will be a growing interest in hacking the mac, just for the sake of figuring the system out. I myself am fascinated by what happens under the hood, and reading the handbook which was released over 2 years ago. In the simple propagation of information to all channels via a singularity, there are myriads of groups which will be capable of finding exploits to the systems. It starts with the hackintosh community which make custom kexts for PC hardware. If they can go that low on the system, it won't be much harder to do it on a MAC, unless you or someone else here knows of a chip that levvys all of it. Check out mac hacker's handbook and all the levels of kernel exploits that can be made available, and the growing list of bugs with voice over, for example. Once again, i prefer caution and informing myself, then prventing spills in my network and computers. But then, i never liked those security burnoffs :) I'm just saying this: Better informed and safe than arrogant and sorry :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Using new Mac Mini without a display connectedn
I have experienced the same issues on my mac mini server. Safari being extremely slow, and i thought connecting the HDMI placebo cable would resolve it, but alas i might have to find a cheap monitor as this is quite annoying though i drop box everything around to install and propagate stuff around. Maybe mailing accessiblity and reporting this issue again would allow for a release that would resolve this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: almost happy new year and some advice
I absolutely agree. My thought is exploits will happen via services that people enable with out the appropriate clue just like you see in the Unix world today. Someone with an improperly patched httpd or BIND, that sort of thing. Nice to see someone with common interests. I feel like I need backup at work functioning in a Microsoft shop heh. The Unix Admin and I are always locked in this argument with the MS heads.

Re: apple TV and choppy speech
what reciever do you have? i have never found a home theater reciever that did not take the audio from the hdmi connection, it is however sometimes a menu setting that can make the reciever ignore the hdmi audio in favor of another source. it has to take the hdmi audio in order to work with multichannel discs with most blueray players for example, and audio is part of the hdmi specifications and licensing for hdmi 1.2 or better On Dec 28, 2010, at 10:41 AM, Mary Otten wrote: > Regarding having the hdmi and optical cables connected at the same time, the > manual for our surround receiver specifically says that the hdmi cable only > carries video not audio, so if you want audio through the surround receiver, > you have to connect the digital optical cable.

Re: 3 questions re the music player on the ipod Touch
2. How on earth does the table index work? I've opened it and selected a letter, but the artists in the selected letter don't show up on the screen. This one took me a few tries to get it. Once you tap the index, and swipe down to pick a letter. you don't have to do anything else, but right swipe in the middle area to look through your artists. Meaning you don't have to double tap the letter m to go to your m artists. I'm still working on your third q, I tried it for the first time yesterday and didn't have any results.

i-pad vs i-phone?

Now, for those of you without the extension, are you still needing to play samples using the mouse method? Thanks. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

Re: i-pad vs i-phone?
Hi Karen: The iPad can be used to make ;hlne cals with a third-party app such as Skype. But, a phone it is not. At present, the iPad also doesn't have a camera. You would also probably want to employ a headset if you did use an ipad as a phone, because it would be awfully awkward holding the iPad up to your head.:), or having your conversation be heard by everyone in the room.

Re: transferring music into itunes library and then to my iphone
Hi Denise: No problem. Just do a copy and paste into that folder that is in music under itunes. It'll say something like "automatically add to Itunes". Just do a pasteroo right there and you should be fine.

Re: i-pad vs i-phone?
lol! Thanks to you and all around. Given I wold rather find some very long string and a couple of tin cups than use skipe, sounds about the same, I will hold out for the phone.

Re: apple TV and choppy speech
Michael, You asked what surround receiver we have. It is an NAD. I can't recall the model number just now. But my husband read in the manual some very specific language about how you have to connect an optical digital cable along with the hdmi cable if you want the digital audio through the receiver, because the hdmi carries just the video.

Re: apple TV and choppy speech
HDMI has audio supported as part of the spec. Some receivers though don't decode that correctly so you need the optical link or the coax SPDIF deal. On my Denon receiver you can grab the surround audio right off the HDMI as well as use the receiver as a switcher to redirect both audio and video sources to the correct display.
