my mail new message window looks funny., and another issue.

2011-02-21 Thread Sarah Alawami
Hello to all.

my mail message window when I start a new message looks funny. I see when I vo 
to then edit then customize headers then edit, edit. I can tab and it looks 
right but it doesn't read the labels even when I hit enter to jump between 
fields. Here is a screenshot of what I hope I mean.

http://bit.ly/gbB48h

Take care all and I really want this fixed. I tried reinstalling the update 
combo to fix this but no go.

S

pls.  Now when I read  or try and read the message table I get blank blank 
blank and when I vo left it looks semi normal. what's going on!

Re: accessible weather apps

2011-02-21 Thread Scott Howell
Carolyn,

I saw your initial post, but did not ask if this was for the Mac or iOS. 
Unfortunately App Store may refer to either platform. :) Maybe eventually all 
devices will run on the same OS. If you were talking about the iOS platform, I 
personally like PocketWeather WOrld.
I did not find anything or really look that hard for the Mac side.

skype 5 and vo

2011-02-21 Thread Marlaina Lieberg
I have recently installed skype v5 release.  I am a bit confused by the 
interface it presents.  I know how to make a call to a contact, but wonder if 
there are shortcuts available to get to the dial pad, how to manage and see 
events like friend requests, general shortcuts to navigate the interface, etc.  
Why do I see something called html content, and once I get out of my source 
list, how do I get back to it?  How do I navigate what seems to be my history, 
where it shows things like today, this week, etc.  As I say, I am able to call 
a contact an with a ton of key presses, navigate to the dial pad to make a 
phone call.  Beyond that, this interface confuses me.

Thanks for any halp possible.

right click it and generate a link for emailing to others to give them access

focus is on the file.  It only brings up the finder menu and doesn't generate a

Re: skype 5 and vo

2011-02-21 Thread Ray Foret Jr
the source list is where you find your so-called history.  Just interact with 
this source list and VO+right arrow in to each item.  When you find an item you 
want to deal with, just stop interacting with the source list.  To close an 
event, just use command+w.  The dial pad is located inside the tool bar which 
is itself just to the left of the source list.  Once the dial pad button is 
pressed, the dial pad is presented in touch tone fission.  ONce you pressed all 
the digits of a number you want to call, press the call button, located at the 
very bottom right most of the dial pad area.  ONce a call answers, the dial pad 
can again be pressed and you can enter digits as for things like your bank or 
Newsline or some other such thing.

Did you place the file in to the public folder?  IF not, that's what you need 
to do.  Now, open the short cut menu and then you'll see the drop box sub menu. 
 There will be a "copy public link" option here.  Press space on this item.

I can't answer the Microsoft question, but, to directly open attachments in 
mail, you might prefer just to press space on the attachment.  this will open 
the quick look panel.  It's virtually the same as opening it.

Using mail

2011-02-21 Thread Cheok Cheng Ann
A couple of other queries regarding the mail application:

When there are replies with R E in the subject, voiceover reads that as 
"regarding". 
Also I've turned punctuation off in the voiceover utility but voiceover still 
reads "star", "blank" and "new line". How can I resolve the above issues?

Cheers,
Cheng Ann

Re: System status

2011-02-21 Thread Cheok Cheng Ann
Hi Ray,

I just realised that command-Y opens the attachment in quick look but voiceover 
only indicates HTML content and refuses the read the entire attachment through.

How can i read the contents without having to move down line by line?

Re: skype 5 and vo

Hi Ray.  Thanks for this.  You can also type in digits on the dial pad in the 
search area and press enter to execute them.  What I am wondering is whether 
there are any shortcuts to get you into dial pad from contact list, etc.


On Feb 21, 2011, at 5:04 AM, Ray Foret Jr wrote:

this source list and VO+right arrow in to each item.  When you find an item you 
want to deal with, just stop interacting with the source list.  To close an 
event, just use command+w.  The dial pad is located inside the tool bar which 
is itself just to the left of the source list.  Once the dial pad button is 
pressed, the dial pad is presented in touch tone fission.  ONce you pressed all 
the digits of a number you want to call, press the call button, located at the 
very bottom right most of the dial pad area.  ONce a call answers, the dial pad 
can again be pressed and you can enter digits as for things like your bank or 
Newsline or some other such thing.

Another way of opening file attachments is by simply selecting the e-mail

Re: a drop box file question

Yes, I did put the file in the public folder and then did vo shift m but it 
just brings up the finder menu.  Do I ned to have drop box open or something?  
Or, can I just navigate to the public folder under drop box through the finder, 
which is what I am doing.

 There will be a "copy public link" option here.  Press space on this item.

Re: System status

Hi Ray,

That shortcut does work. Voiceover reads the contents. Is it possible for me to 
pause the reading, for instance if I need to leave the computer and resume from 
where I left off later?

Hi Sarah,

We reported on this on Maccessibility a couple of weeks ago. There no longer 
appears to be any way of setting up DropBox on the Mac, as they've made the 
application entirely inaccessible.

I'm still trying to find a way to get back into my DropBox via the Mac.

open Applescript editor and  put the following in the edit area then hit

tell application "Mail"
get the properties of the first item of signatures
end tell


If I see the results of this I might be able to help with the moving of

Re: [Bulk] Re: setting up dropbox

2011-02-21 Thread Teresa Cochran
Keep in mind, all who have been using Dropbox for awhile: the setup window is 
no longer accessible in any way, shape, or form. I had to get sighted help, but 
once it was set up, I could access it just fine.

Shredder iOS Chess Application Gains Accessibility

Previously, we reported on a collection of chess and checkers games that had
recently become accessible with VoiceOver. Now, Shredder, a chess app for iOS
devices, has been updated, and among the application's new features is
accessibility support for VoiceOver. The developer notes:

feedback if you [...]

Re: [Bulk] Re: setting up dropbox

2011-02-21 Thread Matthew Campbell
Don't mean to be rude or anything but we shouldn't need to get sighted help to 
set up an app on our macs.
If dropbox would have used the proper accessibility standards that Apple 
clearly outlines, we wouldn't be having this problem.

to use or not to use the disk that comes with airport extreme

2011-02-21 Thread Mary Otten
Hello all,

I recall that when I got an airport express to connect to my stereo, so that I 
could stream audio from ITunes, somebody on this list advised that I not mess 
with the disk that came with the Express. Just plug it in and use airport 
utility already on my Mac. And that worked great. I note that the getting 
started instructions found on Apple's site for the Extreme advise one to use 
the included disk. Since the airport utility is still on my Mac, I wonder at 
those instructions, but its hard to go against what Apple is saying to do.

RE: scanning and the mac

2011-02-21 Thread Caitlyn and Nickels
Just doing a little catching up here.. after a windows 7 crash(ugh!).. this
is one reason I really want to switch, windows is always crashing..
anyway..

 

Thanks to everybody who answered my scanning question.. For now, because of
school, looks like I'll have to keep the win machine around for the k1000
part at least.  Once we're done with that, maybe we can just get a stand
alone eye pal or something to scan our post every day and do occasional
books or whatever and go all mac for everything else.  Who knows what else
will spring up between now and then?

 

Thanks,

Caitlyn

It isn't Fusion that is the problem.  The issue is if you try to run Windows
without running it as a virtual machine.  The sound usually works if you are
running Windows through Fusion as a virtual machine.  But, if you choose to
boot to Windows instead of booting into Snow Leopard and boot directly into
Windows there is a good chance that you will not have any sound in Windows
due to some kind of sound driver problem that Apple and Microsoft neither
seem to have a good answer to.  But, luckily it only happens on the MacBook
Pro 13.  I have the MacBook Pro 15 and have never had the problem with mine
or any of the about 15 machines that I have setup with both Windows 7 and
Snow Leopard.

That seems quite odd, as I have a iMac and a 13 inch Macbook Pro, and VM
Fusion is fine on the Macbook.  I also have the iPal Solo (stand alone

they were working on Mac software.

downloadable audiobooks from public library questions

2011-02-21 Thread Christina
Hello all,

I hope you're having a nice Monday.  :)  I was searching my library's book 
catalog for my children.  I noticed that they offer audiobooks for download.  
It said that I can play these on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod.  I am on a mac 
running Snow Leopard.  Is the download process available for the mac platform?  
If so can this be done using voiceover both on my mac and on my iPhone?  If so, 
what do I need to do to download these audio files onto my mac?  Is it 
straightforward to put the book on my iPhone after that?  I realize these files 
expire after a set period of time just like checking out a book.  Is this 
process more difficult than it's worth?

Thanks so much for any help,
Christina

Re: skype 5 and vo

2011-02-21 Thread Eric Oyen
you aren't the only one.
However, the devs at Skype have done several such interface tweaks. there also 
seems to be a problem with how Skype 5 notifies growl. if you are not focused 
on Skype chat, growl works ok after a fashion. However, if you are focused on 
the chat window, there is no growl output or even the sound that a message came 
in.

I ended up rolling back to Skype 2.8 because that worked as it should.

Re: drop box still not working in public folder

2011-02-21 Thread Darcy Burnard
Hi Marlaina.  When you're focussed on the file you want in your dropbox public 
folder, you want to do VO shift M on it.  This will bring up the standard 
finder context menu.  However there should be an additional submenu for 
dropbox.  From there you should find the option to get the download link for 
said file.  It will copy the link to your clipboard.
It is possible that the dropbox submenu might only be available once the file 
has finished uploading to dropbox.  I've never tried to access that submenu 
until after the upload was finished.
Unfortunately the only way I've found to reliably tell if the file is finished 
uploading is to keep an eye on the network traffic section of activity monitor. 
 Of course this only works if you're not doing much other network activity at 
the time.
HTH.

Re: mac word 2010 not accessible--voice over will not work,

2011-02-21 Thread Scott Howell
Some like Open Office and it is free, but I prefer iWOrks. As far as faxing, my 
HP Laser Jet came with some really good software that is friendly enough to 
send/receive faxes. Well I have not tested the receive side really, but I can 
use ABBYY to scan whatever faxes come in. I do not receive faxes often, but 
send several and no problems.

Re: drop box still not working in public folder

2011-02-21 Thread Jonathan C. Cohn
Sometimes when VoiceOver-shift-M works where the mouse cursor is instead of the 
voiceover cursor.  So try routing your mouse to your VoiceOVer cursor. The 
command for this is VoiceOver-command-F5 

THis sounds like one of the few places where a AppleScript to control VoiceOver 
would truly help.

Fax information.

2011-02-21 Thread Jonathan C. Cohn
If you have a scanner / printer combo then the macintosh will work directly 
with it for sending faxes.  Try going into your system preferences select 
Printers Scanners and Faxes

Then click the add button.  within the window that appears there is a pop up 
menu that has your current printer highlighted  if you select this then there 
is a item at the bottom to choose software...  If you do  this then you can 
search for devices with the name fax in them...

Also, I believe that if you purchase the USB Apple modem, it can automatically 
be configured to do faxing.

Re: drop box still not working in public folder

2011-02-21 Thread Marlaina Lieberg
When I do  vo command f5, I hear browser one item selected marlaina or 
something like that.  I do not seem to be able to root my mouse to my vo cursor.

Sometimes when VoiceOver-shift-M works where the mouse cursor is instead of the

THis sounds like one of the few places where a AppleScript to control VoiceOver 
would truly help.

Re: drop box still not working in public folder

2011-02-21 Thread Esther
Hi Marlaina,

I'm not sure whether it will help to go over this again or not, since I'm not 
running the latest version of Drop box.  But I'll start from scratch.  First, 
make sure that the file you want to share is actually in your Dropbox/Public 
folder.  From Finder, press Command-Shift-H to go to your home directory, then 
press Command-Shift-G ("Go to Folder"), and type or paste in:
Dropbox/Public
into the text box and press return.  Your Finder window should show files that 
are in the Public folder of your Dropbox folder.  Navigate to one of these and 
bring up the context menu with VO-Shift-M.  Now VO-Down arrow through the menu. 
 You should hear VoiceOver announce in succession: "Open", "Open with, 
sub-menu", then "Dropbox, sub-menu".  When you reach "Dropbox, sub-menu" press 
VO-Space.  You should hear VoiceOver say "Dropbox, sub-menu; Browse on Dropbox 
site…". VO-Down arrow again twice.  You should hear VoiceOver say "View 
Previous Versions…", then "Copy Public Link". When you reach "Copy Public 
Link", press VO-Space.  You should now be able to paste the link (with 
Command-V) into a mail message or text file.  Sorry to be heavy-handed about 
this, but these commands should work whether or not you have TrackPad Commander 
on or off, and regardless of your cursor tracking settings.  Let us know if you 
still don't see a Dropbox sub-menu.  

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Hi Sarah,

are you sure that Mail is the problem? Does VoiceOver behave normally in other

Helping a friend cancel a file in skype 2.8 but how?

2011-02-21 Thread Krister Ekstrom
Hi,
As the subject says, i'm trying my best to help a friend of mine who's just got 
a new Mac. She runs Skype 2.8 and she has encountered a problem. When in a 
window with a file transfer that waits to start sending, whe can't cancel the 
file transfer to start all over again. There's no cancel button or menu or 
anything, and i run skype 5 myself and don't remember how to do things in teh 
older skypes so any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

system dialog

2011-02-21 Thread louie
Hi all,
Some times when I go to running applications VO + F1 then VO f1 again I find a 
system dialog. If I select the system dialog I can't get rid of it. The only 
way to get rid of it is reboot.
Any one having this trouble? If so how did you get rid of the system dialog?

Re: drop box still not working in public folder

2011-02-21 Thread Marlaina Lieberg
Esther,

I followed your directions to the letter and I hear new folder, get info, paste 
item, view, arrange by and view options.
  I have tried going to the dropbox app and opening it and then navigating back 
to the dropbox public folder and still no luck.  I am assuming my dropbox is 
installed, since I am sharing folders with a couple of friends.  I just cannot 
seem to get this stuff going in the public folder.

I tried to uninstall dropbox and it told me it could not move dropbox to the 
trash because dropbox was running.  I see that I have several .dmg versions of 
dropbox in my downloads and thought maybe I could revert to the earliest one.  
I just don't know why it's not working and again, I absolutely followed your 
instructions to the letter.

Hi Marlaina,

I'm not sure whether it will help to go over this again or not, since I'm not 
running the latest version of Drop box.  But I'll start from scratch.  First, 
make sure that the file you want to share is actually in your Dropbox/Public 
folder.  From Finder, press Command-Shift-H to go to your home directory, then 
press Command-Shift-G ("Go to Folder"), and type or paste in:
Dropbox/Public
into the text box and press return.  Your Finder window should show files that 
are in the Public folder of your Dropbox folder.  Navigate to one of these and 
bring up the context menu with VO-Shift-M.  Now VO-Down arrow through the menu. 
 You should hear VoiceOver announce in succession: "Open", "Open with, 
sub-menu", then "Dropbox, sub-menu".  When you reach "Dropbox, sub-menu" press 
VO-Space.  You should hear VoiceOver say "Dropbox, sub-menu; Browse on Dropbox 
site…". VO-Down arrow again twice.  You should hear VoiceOver say "View 
Previous Versions…", then "Copy Public Link". When you reach "Copy Public 
Link", press VO-Space.  You should now be able to paste the link (with 
Command-V) into a mail message or text file.  Sorry to be heavy-handed about 
this, but these commands should work whether or not you have TrackPad Commander 
on or off, and regardless of your cursor tracking settings.  Let us know if you 
still don't see a Dropbox sub-menu.  

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Usually you can get out of this by simply pressing VO-shift-d to take you to

Re: drop box still not working in public folder

2011-02-21 Thread Esther
Hi Marlaina,

OK, a further dumb question.  Can you actually open any of the files that are 
in your Public Dropbox folder?  For example, if you loaded up a document or PDF 
file, when you are in Finder and select the file that you tried to bring up the 
context menu for, can you press Command-Down Arrow to open the file and read 
it?  I'm trying to verify that the file has been completely uploaded.  If you 
can't open it, then I wouldn't be surprised if you also can't get a link to it. 
 If you have other (older) files in your Dropbox folder (not necessarily in 
your Public folder) that you can open and read, when you do a Command-Up Arrow 
from the Public folder, what happens when you copy one of these (Command-C), 
move back down to the Public folder (Command-Down Arrow), paste in the file 
(Command-V), and then, after a short pause to let the file copy (if it is at 
all lengthy), what happens when you try the context menu selection 
(Command-Shift-M) sequence again?  It sounds as though you don't have access to 
the cloud (which is what you're saying about getting the regular Finder 
commands).  

In my Public Folder there is a file named "Top Secret.txt" (from an admittedly 
old distribution). When I open this with Command-Down Arrow, the file reads:

You can get a public link for any file in your Dropbox's Public folder.


Simply right click (or control click) on a file, click the Dropbox submenu,
and then click 'Copy public link.'


Any chance that there is such a file in your Public Dropbox folder?  Does the 
context menu work on that file?  (And yes, if I route my mouse cursor to this 
file and Control-Click by holding down the Control key with a clicking my 
trackpad, I can press down arrow and move through the same menu options as 
before, then right arrow at the Dropbox sub menu, and down arrow to the "Copy 
Link").

I badly want to get to that (inaccessible) status bar icon to check your 
network connection!  Sorry not to have more thoughts.

Esther

Re: signature strangenesses

2011-02-21 Thread Jonathan C. Cohn
I just created two signatures one in all and one in GMAIl...

I then went to all 
Selected the Signature just in All and then moved the mouse to the VO cursor.

After turning off cursor tracking and then doing the following:

1. vo-command-shift-space (mouse down)
2. Move VO to "Cox  in the accounts table of signatures.
3. MOve Mouse to VO with VO-command-F5
4. VO-Command-Shift-space (mouse-up)

Al  of this worked with out Mail crashing.  Note:  I also tried to find an 
AppleScript property of either 
the Signatures or SMTP Server  Classes and could not find any property to link 
an SMTP or IMAP account to a signature.

Have had this problem a few times.  Also Voice over would not speak.  So my 
option was to force shut down the system and reboot.

Yeah I think that this release is more unstable then 10.6.5 was and I've sent 
apple my logs and they said first that it was my a-capella  voices that were 
crashing but I removed them and reinstalled and it has crashed only once today 
but twice yesterday and I have to hit vo cmd f8 then esc when the training 
comes up. that works most of the  time. try that when you have your dialogue 
come up next time.

Not to minimize your concern but if choosing that app causes you problems, then 
simply don't go there.  Pressing VO-shift-d has always got me away from that 
screen and pressing cmd-tab to go between apps has never put me back in it.

VO Drag and Drop

2011-02-21 Thread Sarai Bucciarelli
All:
I'm trying to manually drag and drop my iTunes playlists to my iPod/iPhone b/c 
copying and pasting won't work. Here is what I'm doing, and I'll outline where 
the problem is occurring.
 
Duplication Steps:
1.Using VO navigation commands, I move to the iTem I want to drag.
2. I press VO Command F5 to move the mouse cursor to the VO location. When I 
press VO F5 to varify what is under the mouse, It says nothing is under the 
mouse, even though when I moved the mouse, it said I was on my playlist.
3. I press VO command shift space to start the drag. I hear the appropriate 
mouse click sound.
4. VO Shift F3 turns off curser tracking.
5. Move to my ipod.
6. Press VO command F5 to move the mouse cursor to vo curser. When I press vo 
F5 to hear what is under curser, it says nothing is under cursor.
7. Pressing vo command shift space releases the mouse. I hear the appropriate 
mouse click sound.

8. Turn off cursor tracking by pressing vo shift f3.
So basically I'm being told nothing is under my mouse. 
Please help.
Thanks,

Re: system dialog

2011-02-21 Thread Jonathan C. Cohn
The system dialog is usually a fairly important message.

1. WHy did you unplug a disk without unmounting / ejecting it.
2. Time Machine had a problem backing up your computer.

...

So just ignoring these might cause you severe macintosh problems in the future.

I can't say I have ever been in a state where the focus of the dialog didn't 
work right.

Best,

Re: downloadable audiobooks from public library questions

Hello Christina,

Can you tell us which service your library is using to loan their audiobooks, 
or send us a link to your library's website so we can take a look?

Cheers,
Bryan

Alternatively, he can send email to macvisionaries+subscr...@googlegroups.com,

Shredder chess impressions

2011-02-21 Thread Zachary Kline
Hi All,
I was pleased to read this morning that Shreder has been made accessible with 
VoiceOver.  This is a big-name Chess program, and so I thought I'd give the 
full verssion a try.
Thus far, I'm quite impressed.  I've been able to play and analyze a game, try 
my hand at a chess puzzle, and fiddle with the game's settings among other 
things.  I'm not sure what they might have left out of the accessibility 
support, but i doesn't seem to be much.  I was particularly impressed at the 
analysis mode, as there didn't seem to be any noticeable lag when using it with 
VO.  
So, all in all, I'm happy we have another Chess alternative.  Now, if only the 
makers of Civilization for the iPhone would do the same thing..  
Best,
Zack.

That doesn't open the attachment, well it does but it's a quick look thing. Be 
aware that they are downloaded in to the mail downloads folder under libraries

Re: iWork Numbers Detailed Look

2011-02-21 Thread Jonathan C. Cohn
I believe this was a more complete look. I had wished to see that changes made 
would stick.  

Some thoughts ffrom somebody that has used Numbers for about one hour...

1.  Mouse clicking on cells is important.
2. It appears that Numbers likes most of the page style to be outside the 
spreadsheet area.  If one brings up one of the templates provided by Apple, 
There are usually text and graphic boxes around the table / tables within the 
layout area.
4. Kevin appeared to be trying to do several things with styles.  Header 1, 
Header 2, Header 3. are inherited from HTML Where there are several header 
levels.  Since Tables (and actually Excel 2007 orgreater) want the user to 
actually select rows as headers of a table this functionality is probably 
better done that way.  The other styles that were mentioned appered  to be at 
the format style of the numbers which Numbers calls something quite different 
than Style.

I would be curious if a blind person could create a text box centered over the 
top of  a table .

One other point...  Numbers seems to not be fixed with the idea that the fifth 
column is "E"  This was something I first saw on the NeXT Operating System 
under a Lotus product.  Can anybody explain how this works  when starting a new 
sheet or table?

Hi, Christina,

If your library uses Overdrive Media for audio, this is available for the Mac. 
Unfortunately, the pdf ebooks are not accessible on the Mac at this time.
