Re: mac and iPhone syncing over the air through google calendars

I have not had any issues lately, but you might check to see when the last time 
your Mac synced with MobileMe. I have not had this problem, so cannot offer a 
solution, but if there is a problem with syncing in general, you might find an 
indication on the Mac side.

The iPal now works on a Mac.

It is self-voicing.

I never considered one, but just heard from a doctoral student friend of

How long has this behavior been going on?  Yesterday I was getting spurious

it at the time since my updates pushed through, but it may well be that there 
is some server problem at google.

If you are okay with buying yet another expensive software solution, check

Re: scanning and the mac

2011-02-17 Thread Mary Otten
Brian,
Eye-pal is a scanning solution offered for sale by abisee, a company in 
Massachusetts. It was written for Windows and ported to the Mac, but it is not 
vo-compatible at all; it is self voicing. It uses a camera rather than a 
flat-bed scanner for image acquisition, and it is now possible to use the 
camera portion of the package together with the k1000 software. I haven't any 
idea what the camera sells for separately.

Garage Band

2011-02-17 Thread Robert Hooper
I am glad to say that the use of Garage Band, although different than other 
programs with which I am used to working, is fairly simple. My question is in 
regards to track selection. If I only want to manipulate a few measures of a 
track, how would I do so? Let's say I wished to select measures 4-13 for 
purposes of copying that particular track's content to the clipboard for later 
pasting or use in the project; or maybe there were a few recording mistakes I 
wish to rectify without having to do another retake of the track. Maybe I want 
to delete measures 4-13 or replace them with silence-I could also wish to apply 
a certain effect to this selected portion of track. How is this accomplished? 
Furthermore, let's say I wish to select parts of a guitar and piano track 
(measures 4-13), but omit another guitar, bass, and drum track. Is this 
possible? I know that Garage Band has limited capabilities as an audio editor, 
but until I can afford ProTools, this is what I'm limited to using. Any help 
would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Editor for Java

2011-02-17 Thread Brandon Olivares
Hi,

What is a good java editor for Mac? I'm taking a computer science class where 
we are programming in Java, but Eclipse isn't working very well with Voiceover. 
What would you recommend as an alternative?

Thanks,

Growl Interfering With Voiceover Speech

2011-02-17 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all.I notice sometimes that when I check the time or 
another application uses speech, VO goes silent until I restart it. Sometimes 
it'll come up if I toggle muting speech on and off a few times. Anyone else 
have this experience?

I have the same thing happening. It happens so much that I wrote a apple script 
to turn on and off the voice over four times. I assigned a function key to run 
the apple script. I also e-maild apple accessible about the trouble.

Re: Editor for Java

2011-02-17 Thread Pierre Heim
Hi Brandon,

I use Xcode for programming but only as editor. For compiling and debugging I 
go to command line directly. Perhaps I can do this also within the Xcode IDE 
but I do this all day on a Linux box. So it is more simple to me this way :-)

setting up bootcamp again

2011-02-17 Thread Sarah Alawami
Hello to all. I'm trying to set up my bootcamp installation all over again and 
I mean all over but I downloaded the bootcamp software like ti said and it said 
this after it was done downloading.

To use the Windows support software, burn a copy to CD or DVD, or save the 
software to an external disk.


I put in a blank cd and it won't' burn. I can't save the software anywhere as I 
don't have a fat32 hd. . lol! so what do I do now? Can I skip this step saying 
that I already  burned the  bootcamp software  to disk and it will already be 
on there when I create an empty bootcamp partition and later install windows? I 
have no idea what to do from here as I have not done this in about a year  and 
I don't want to print the manual.  lol!!

take care all.

That didn't work for me either.  You can install it from your OS X dvd
instead.  So just skip that step, choose the option that says you have
already downloaded it or whatever it is.

Re: Itunes beginner's questions.

2011-02-17 Thread Phantom.Vader
Hey thanks everyone!

The importation thing worked fine!  It's funny, I thought I'd tried
that before back when I first got my Mac and it didn't work right
then.  But it did now, so thanks hugely!  Is there a way, though, to
get it to import stuff straight to the folder I want it in, like, an
audio-book straight into the books folder?  Because when I imported my
Revenge of the Sith, it put it in the music folder and I had to do the
"get info" thing to move it to "books".  Which did work BTW!

And Ricardo, you're right that I'm going to have to copy and paste my
descriptive movies into the right folder.  I tried re-categorizing
them under "get info" and it didn't work.  But, um, dumb question.  So
I copy them from my music folder (can I cut or is it best to copy?).
But once I've selected "movies" from the sources table, where to I
paste what I've copied/cut from my "music" folder?  There's the
"Movies Introduction" sroll-area, but nothing like the "music" table
in my "music" folder (the one where all the songs are listed) to paste
stuff in at least that I can find.  And anyway, when I've tried
pasting stuff in the "songs table before it hasn't worked.

Anyway, thanks for all the help!  You guys rock!

Terminal question, magicjack issue

2011-02-17 Thread .dan.


I want to remove all magicjack software from the hd.  I found two places 
where a directory and included files were and removed them.


When doing in my home directory:

ls .*

Note that is ls period plus star, to find hidden directories I get this two 
line response:


.magicJack:
ISA Softphone

Note the response is on two lines.  This suggests in an attempt to keep 
people out they used a long name which is getting wrapped in the ls 
response.  The magicJack part is on one line and the rest on the next. 
The second line names are seperated by several spaces.


Has anyone an idea how to get into that directory and/or remove its 
contents?

 Hi,
 
 We have been kicking around the idea of getting a couple of new macs for a
 couple of weeks now since bothour pc's are not working that great anymore.
 The main thing that is holding us back is our heavy reliance on Kurzweil.  
 I
 am a grad student and we also use k1000 for scanning our mail daily.  I 
 know
 we could either do a duel boot system or run a virtual machine and then can
 use k1000 this way on the mac, but I wanted to ask knowledgable folks first
 about this before we jumped in.
 
 We heard about another kurzweil product that is for the mac, but it's not
 self voicing, and I don't know if vo works with it.   Does anybody have any
 mac specific solutions that work well for scanning text books?  For 
 scanning
 the types we all get in the post?  I use the bookmark features in k1000
 quite a lot, plus the dictionary a lot and have preferred it a lot for the
 proof reading I do for book share over ms word.
 
 Oh, that's actually another question, we were told that pages actually 
 isn't
 that great or useable...
 
 Lots of this info is coming from people who don't use vo regularly.
 
 For us, though, this scanner stuff is the only thing standing in the way.
 We do have a old power book, but it's the old non intel mac, so we're stuck
 running leopard on it, can't do a virtual machine or anything on it, it
 doesn't support the magic track pad, and we can't upgrade to snow leopard 
 or
 anything beyond what we already have on it(we already called apple about
 it).
 
 Any help or anything would be appreciated!
 
 Thanks,
 Caitlyn

Hi. Normally, you can enclose directory names in quotes. Then, you can use tab

Re: Terminal question, magicjack issue

No, there is no wrapping going on here.

ls is saying there is a directory called .magicJack, and inside there
is a file called ISA Softphone

By default, when you pass a directory to ls, it lists everything
inside the directory.  Passing a -d flag to ls stops this behavior.

ls -d .*

will show you the directory without it's contents.

I don't know about the rest of you, bht the Enquirer is where I turn for

But anyway, I don't think Voiceover's going to do anything based on the health

Steve Jobs might have had little or nothing to do with voiceover to begin with. 
 He probably just said ok to it and thats it.  Who knows?  I would guess that 
voiceover would stay the course its been on since 2005.  Steadily improving.  
After all, Apple gets boat loads of money from educational institutions.  
Getting rid of voiceover would exclude them from this market.

Re: Steve Jobs has only six weeks to live, according to the inquirerer

2011-02-17 Thread Charlie Doremus
Steve Jobs is not the center of the Apple universe in spite of what people 
might think, he's just the CEO. VoiceOver is part of the os and it is doubtful 
that it will disappear if anything negative happens to Jobs, so relax.

Re: Steve Jobs has only six weeks to live, according to the inquirer

anyone who believes the inquirer needs to have their head examined.

As for Job's Health, its not really relevant. he's already got some people in 
place to take over and run things after he is unable to.

Re: Steve Jobs has only six weeks to live, according to the inquirerer

2011-02-17 Thread Ricardo Walker
I partly disagree here.

He is definitely the center of the Apple universe.  Nothing worth mentioning 
happens without his approval.  You can't honestly say that doesn't count for a 
lot.  Look at where apple was before he came back in the late 90s.  Things 
weren't looking good.

 Hi,
 
 I recently came across solona.net. I had heard of their tactile screen 
 protectors. My fiance just got an iPhone and is having some trouble 
 texting and such, so I thought it'd be useful for her, so I ordered us 
 both one. I even tried to get expedited shipping. However, I've not heard 
 a word from them yet, and it's been at least two weeks or more. I even 
 tried contacting them through their form, and have not gotten any 
 responses.
 
 I know there's been discussion of them not being online for their captcha 
 service, but I thought at least they would process orders. Also, I had 
 seen an operator online with the captcha service for at least a few 
 minutes the night when I ordered, so I thought they were back online.
 
 I know it's been discussed here, which is why I'm posting about it. I'm 
 not sure what to do. I've heard the guy is sick, so I don't want to do a 
 chargeback, but it really should have been shipped and arrived here 
 already. Has anyone else ordered recently?
 
 Thanks,
 Brandon

Exactly Ricardo. I doubt very seriously they have any clue what his medical

course because they have to much invested at this point to just pull the plug. 
Not saying it couldn't happen, just unlikely. So, relax folks.

Re: scanning and the mac

2011-02-17 Thread David Tanner
You are right on, the only accessible OCR for Mac right now is Eye-Pal which 
has no where close to the features of Kurzweil1000.  The best solution at 
this time is K11000 in Windows and with the latest Fusion you should be able 
to setup a hotkey so that you can actually launch K1000 while you are still 
in Snow Leopard and Fusion will handle getting you over to Windows, 
launching K1000; which isn't half bad.


Just a word of warning here.  After more than one experience; stay away from 
the Mac Book Pro 13 inch laptop.  There appears to be a problem with not 
always getting sound on the Windows side of things which apparently can only 
be solved by installing a USB soundcard to use for sound on the Windows side 
of things.  Again, this only seems to happen with the 13 inch model of Mac 
Book Pro.

There is no solution for the Mac equal to K1000 if you use things like the 
bookmark and other features of that application. The k3000 for Mac is old 
and not vo-compatible and not appropriate for blind folks. Stick with k1000 
and never mind native Mac solutions if you're a power user, which it sounds 
like you are. You won't be happy with other solutions that don't offer 
features you're use to and don't offer anything like the convenience of the 
K1000 application. I have K1000 running on a Windows machine with a 
bookedge scanner by Plustek. Bootcamp or a vm may work for you. Good luck.

It certainly works, features are somewhat limited, it does not use 
VoiceOver, and is not setup like a standard Apple application.  Instead it 
has been ported over to Apple using its' own speech and essentually the same 
keys as the Windows version.  But, it is better than nothing.

Hi,

Importing content is very easy.  Just press command O and the file browser 
will open.  Just press return on the file or folder you wish to add.


Moving content around playlists is pretty easy too.  You have a few options 
here.  For your audiobooks.  You can just select them from your music 
playlist, press command C to copy, and paste them in the books playlist with 
command V.


I don't recommend this for audiobooks though.  I suggest going to the 
audiobooks you have in your music playlist and selecting them and pressing 
command I to bring up the get info dialog.  Then select the option tab. 
here you will find a pop up menu for media kind.  Choose audiobook.  You can 
also set that iTunes remembers the place you left of in the book.  Just 
press return when thats done.  This won't work for descriptive movies 
because they are in a music format.  You will need to do the before mention 
copy and paste to bring them to the Movies playlist.  At least That I'm 
aware of.  I don't deal much with movies with iTunes.

Hi again everyone!

These are some questions I've been meaning to ask for a while now,
because I haven't yet been able to figure them out on my own yet.
Excuse me if they're dumb!  Relative Mac newby.  What can I say?
Anyway, my questions are as follows:

1. How do you import a song into Itunes using the keyboard?  Right now
I just click it in its location in the finder (or my external drive)
and let Itunes play it, which seems to import it automatically.
Needless to say, though, this can get laborious!

2. Is it possible to import entire folders, say of a whole album or
audio-book, from the finder or my external drive into Itunes?  Also,
is there anything analogous to the ability you have in Winamp to open
and play an entire folder?

3. Is it possible to add songs to an already created playlist?

4. Can you move files to a different playlist-folder?  For example, I
have a couple of descriptive movies and audio-books in my library, but
because of the way I imported them, see question 1, they've ended up
in my "music" folder.  But I want them to go in my "movies" and
"books" folders respectively.  Can I move them there, and if so how?

Anyway, those are all my questions so far.  Any and all help is
greatly appreciated!

RE: scanning and the mac

2011-02-17 Thread Andy Baracco
Stephen at Kurzweil told me that you can't buy the camera separately, and
you can't use it separately.  The Eye-Pal software must be installed, as
k1000 needs to access components of the Eye-Pal software, so if you are
going to use K1000 with the Eye-Pal camera,  you will need to purchase both
packages.

It is a Windows OCR product for blind that has been ported to the Mac.  It 
is made by ABISEE Company http://www.abisee.com.  And the process for 
getting the Apple version of the software is as follows at this time.
1. Purchase the Windows version of Eye-Pal from Abisee or a dealor of Abisee 
products such as Handy Tech North America 651-636-5184.  Then you go to the 
Abisee website and download Pro.
the Apple version of the software onto your Apple and install it.  All that 
is left to do then is plug the camera into a USB on your Mac and you are 
ready to go.  Meantime, if you already had Kurzweil1000 on the Windows side 
of your Mac in Bootcamp you could now have your choice of using a scanner 
with K1000 or using the Eye-Pal digital camera with K1000; which wil colaps

Abisee is offering a price break to k1000 users according to their website. It 
still means you pay close to a grand for the eyepal, and if you already own the 
K1000 and a scanner, putting out that kind of money for the convenience of

worth it for some.

Can voiceover speak Kurgish or Russian?

2011-02-17 Thread Kevin Reeves
Hey folks. An instructor in training here at the Louisiana Center for the Blind 
is from Kurgistan. She was curious if there were voices available for either 
Kurgish or Russian. I'm sure it's not available by default in the OS itself, 
but I know that their are folks who have purchased voices in several different 
languages. Any help would be very much appreciated in helping her figure this 
out. Thanks so much.

Kevin Reeves

Re: apple wireless keyboards

2011-02-17 Thread Ricardo Walker
I can say that about anything.

I can't think of many electronics that like to be dropped.  lol.  Personally, 
I've dropped my Apple BT keyboard a few times.  It works just fine.  Its just a 
hunk of metal.  I don't see why it wouldn't be as durable as other keyboards.

Well, they were right about tiger  woods extra marital affairs and john

they are the most reliable source of info.  I won't believe it till cnn, bbc
