Re: Help with Nambu
If you hit command shift up or down arrow, you will move to top or bottom respectively. The bug here is that you have to quickly move from the table and back to it for your curser to actually move to either point. It's weird, but it does indeed work. Hope this helps.

an excerpt from a conversation i'm having a developer
Here is the bit the develper is having about adding custom accessibility components to the UI of his application: Regarding accessibility/making DrumSpillage assistive I'm now pretty confident about what I need to do. Using the Inspector app I just need to mirror the supported attributes in the standard controls. That's quite straight forward for simple controls but gets a little bit more complex for switches and controls with tabs as that involves setting child attributes. It's no big deal but does need to be done right. It's amazing how this process has shed light on my own control hierarchy. One decision that needs to be made is what to do with number box fields that report values in specific units like hertz, decibels, milliseconds etc. Actually, that's straight forward but making the corresponding slider also report those units (rather than a simple percentage value) isn't easy. THe inspector seems really fit for adding the right classes to a UI element. On the addition of pertinent value information on sliders instead of the generic percentage information, does anyone have something that could orient the devver? As i said previously, a helping hand manual of some sort that can then be sent to many other developers from our own ground work would seriously help, and as mentioned above in the excerpt, it also provides the devver a whole lot of useful infirmation on their own application's hierarchy as it grows in complexity. If anyone would like to share this interest, please let me know off list and i could setup a wiki on my server for this manual project with relevant test Uis. On another note, i have started the process with another developer who makes an 8 bit plugin called chipsounds which is very very nice, and just recently was recoded in 64bit AU plugin format. Check out the link below for some example sounds coming out of this gem: http://www.plogue.com/?page_id=43 Go over to the youtube chip sounds channel and hear some crushed goodness :) best Yuma -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Adium fb chat constantly asking for plaintext authentication?
Hi guys, I sent an email to this list a couple of days ago asking for help on Facebook and adium not working. I got a really helpful email from Thomas. I followed those instructions to set up Facebook with adium using jabber, but now when ever I try to choose the available status for fb chat it gives me the message. requires plaintext authentication over an unencrypted connection. Allow this and continue authentication? If I choose yes, it just does the same thing over and over again. If I choose no, it cancels . Anyone no what I'm doing wrong? Thanks again for any help.

Make a portuguese epub with Pages
Hello, I made a simple document - 1 page just to test it - in Pages wrote in Portuguese. I select all the paragraphs and inform that all of them were in portuguese. Then I exported it to ePub format and put it in my iPhone 3GS. I'm trying to read it in iBooks but VoiceOver insist to read it with English voice. VoiceOver announced the document in the shelf and read the content of it in English. By default my VoiceOver is in Portuguese. The others portuguese books I bought in iBookstore are correctly reading. Seems me that I need to put something in the document to say that it is in portuguese, but I don't know what and where I could control it? Anyone already passed for this?

Re: Make a portuguese epub with Pages
Hello Jorge, To ensure that your document is marked as being in Portuguese, do the following in Pages: • Select All (Cmd-A); • Open the Inspector (Cmd-Option-I); • Select the Text radio button; • Select the More tab; • Go to Last visible item (VO-End); • Navigate left until you find the popup button for language selection and select Portuguese. This should solve your problem. Cheers, Anne On 13 Mar 2011, at 13:42, Jorge Fernandes (SIDAR) wrote: > Hello, > > I made a simple document - 1 page just to test it - in Pages wrote in > Portuguese.

Albums purchased from iTunes not sorted properly
Hi all, I purchased an album by Kanye West from the iTunes store. When I am in the regular text view in iTunes and press "k" for Kanye, it first gives me all of the tracks with just "Kanye West" as the artist names. His albums have a lot of songs with guests which have "Kanye West and..." as the artist name, so this results in me getting the album tracks out of order, with just Kanye's songs first and then the ones which have other artists on them. The only way I've found to fix this is to use the grid view and select "group by album". But this brings up a problem with voice over; it is extremely slow when navigating the entire library in grid mode. I never had issues with Jaws on a PC when using the grid view, and when using iTunes on a PC, this seems to be the only way to listen to albums like this in their proper running order. I had this issue on the iPhone as well, but was able to resolve it by selecting "more" on the bottom right of the screen and then selecting "albums". Has anyone found a better solution to this? I know I could just re-tag the tracks, but I really think complete albums purchased directly from the iTunes store should be formatted properly and easy to play without jumping through hoops.

Re: Two questions about the accessible Audacity for the Mac
Thanks for the advise. Unfortunately though even if there was a deal on it, Protools is way, way above my budgets limits and a control surface at that?, forget it. The reason why i asked in thefirst place was that i'm going to a conference where people who are interested in the mac and its ins and outs are going to gather and i'm actually going to speak there, so it'd be cool if i had something to show there. /Krister 13 mar 2011 kl. 19.33 skrev Frank Carmickle: > Hi Krister > > On Mar 12, 2011, at 6:00 AM, Krister Ekstrom wrote: > >> Hi, >> Let me put this to you frankly, me and Audacity aren't friends at all.:-) I >> don't at all like the way Audacity works, but since everyone have a personal >> taste i could always either learn the beast, which i'm about to sorta do or >> use another program. > > Yeah.

Access Keys Not Working
Hi, Recently in Safari, access keys have stopped working. I would always use ctrl+(key), but on every web site I've been on where I know there are access keys, they are not working anymore. Has the modifier key been changed, or is this some bug in Safari?

Re: O M G, it's beautiful
Hi, Keep in mind Apple changed the way they rated battery life starting with this new lineup of Macbook pros. They say it reflects real world use more accurately.

Blinkx remote?
Hi list: Has anyone ever used Blinkx Remote? I find the majority of its interface fairly self-explanatory, but I'm about to bang my head into a wall in frustration at one thing in particular. Selecting a TV show, season and episode is very straight forward. Then, Blinkxs asks me where I want to watch the episode. I pick a website, then the fun starts. A blinkx page loads that tells me I'm about to visit a third-party site. It then tells me to click continue, or proceed, or... whatever it calls it. I can't for the life of me get voiceover to show me this text that's clickable or a link or button. I'm sure it's there on the page, or I wouldn't be asked to click it, but I'm not seeing it. I can't click on the word "continue" in the text box that says to click it, and a voiceover find yields no other instances of this text. Tabbing around doesn't show me a button to click, and... I'm not liking it. The rest of the website/process is terribly straight forward, so why can't the final step be as well? TIA for any help. -John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com.

Re: playing movies purchased on iTunes
While we're on the topic of Movies from iTunes, does anyone know if you can get films with Audio Description? it's available on most DVD's these days, and it's be great if the versions you download from iTunes had this feature too.

Re: Albums purchased from iTunes not sorted properly
Hello A few things that you will want to do. First if you are looking to navigate by artist and album you should turn on the playlist browser by pressing command b. It will announce show column browser. This will show up between the sources table and the track table now called music table. When you interact with this table you will find your albums and artists lists alphabetically. Once you have the playlist browser you can then find the album you want. Stop interacting with the playlist browser and interact with the music browser. Then sort by track. It will be the column that says things like 1 of 10 or 3 of 14. Hit the VO shift backslash or VO vertical bar to choose to sort the column up or down. Then you will have them in order. That is if all is right with the track number tags.. All of the music that I have that came from the iTunes store is tagged correctly.

mac user needs help with his website
Hello group; I know this is somewhat off topic, but I'm hoping the mac users who operate their own websites will help me out where other lists have failed me. I'm wanting to create a rotating banner for my website to show one advertisement each time a page loads or is refreshed. I'm hoping for free and very simple. I understand that it will probably involve modifying a java or php script. I'm ok with putting my data in someone else's form, but that's the limit of my skills. No money in the budget for a webmaster and still have trust issues even if it wasn't a matter of money. but I will give one of the spaces in the rotation to whomever can help me solve this problem. My site is www.midwaymarketplace.com if you want to check out the site or its rankings. I really hope someone here can help me. I'm hoping that if I put some sample ads up or a this space for sale here i might be able to generate enough income to start doing some other things like conferences, trade shows, or advertising myself. Thanks in advance for any help. and i hope the moderator will excuse me. If you have to put me on monitored or something, that's fine; but i didn't know who else to ask. take care, Max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Albums purchased from iTunes not sorted properly
Thanks. I'm not sure what you mean when you say "where it says things like 3 of 10 or 3 of 14". But I selected the artist in the playlist browser and then went to the column in the music table where it says the album title, and then hit VO-shift-\ and that seemed to do the trick.

interesting issue reading the time and date
Hi guys, I've got an obscure one related to the keyboard commander script to read the time and date. On my laptop, the time and date from the keyboard commander are read using the speech settings that I have set up for VO. If I slow the speech down, or speed it up, I can press option T and the time and date will be announced in whatever speech configuration voiceover is currently using. On my roommate's laptop the time and date are announced painfully slowly, no matter what his voiceover speech settings are. We're running all the latest 10.6 updates and all that. Can any one suggest a reason why this should be? Thanks.

Re: interesting issue reading the time and date
I can't answer your question, but I've noticed that if I use option-t to get the time, voiceover sometimes seems to become unresponsive afterward. This is inconsistent and sometimes I have to turn VO off and then back on again. Considering this issue that your roommate is having, it seems like the option-t command isn't as reliable as it could be. I try to use control-F8 and then left arrow to get the time as I've never had any issues with that. Hopefully someone else can provide some insight into our problems.

seriously ridiculous facebook problem
Hi list, I recently decided to give facebook a little chance as i have loads of photo tags, messages and friend requests. Upon logging in, i get a roadblock message with facebook telling me there's unusual activity on my account, and to start revising the activities. So of course, i go through the usual verification code with an audio kaptcha which is never a happy moment, then lo and behold, i have to figure out who is on 5 different completely inaccessible photos. As if photos were accessible anyway. SO i ask someone to help me out, painstakingly, then after having probably, i say probably, guessed each person right, we submit our pictionary answers. Facebook being as secure and safe as it is, we took too long to answer. SO back to drawing board, and well, if you have over 200 friends and all of them are travelling all over the place, some photos being just a hand scribbling on a piece of paper or the person in the frame being no bigger than a dot on a landscape, how the hell a blind person is supposed to go through this verification process? To top it off, if there are kaptchas specifically made for the blind, then how on earth did facebook's security team not consider it for the photo jeopardy? Has anyone gotten this eventful problem or am i just soem old school communicator who spent a bit too long out of facebook's social phenomenon and therefore need to slap myself in the face for not booking some time checking if someone has farted on his page or not? Any advise or help greatly appreciated, as i just ate a sandwich and need to report it on my facebook page.

Re: interesting issue reading the time and date
Hi Erik, What happens when you go to the "Speech" menu of Systems Preferences, set the System Voice on the "Text to Speech" tab to whatever voice is being used to announce the time and date, and then interact with and adjust the slider so that you reset the speech rate to the fastest setting? Also, is "Allow VoiceOver to be controlled with AppleScript" checked under the General pane of VoiceOver Utility? HTH.

Re: Drop box on iPhone and text editors
Hi Everett, I suggest that you read through a recent review comparing 4 different note-taking apps for the iPhone (Simplenote, Elements, PlainText, and Nebulous Notes). Running a Google search on "daring fireball note-taking apps" will bring up the link to "iPhone Notes App Comparison": http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2011/02/iphone-notes-app-comparison/ That article also links to a second article whose author did an independent review of Elements, PlainText, and Nebulous Notes (and covered Simplenote under a preliminary discussion): http://www.macfilos.com/2011/02/text-editors-review-elements-plaintext-nebulous-notes.html I mostly use Simplenote, but for the kind of Dropbox organization that I believe you want, I most frequently use Elements. (I actually have tried all the apps discussed in these articles, and agree that they are the most likely candidates for you to consider, along with one more much newer app called Notesy.) Links in detailed price information are given in each article. You can find the Notesy web page at: http://notesy-app.com/ You can read about the AppleScript and Automator, etc. interface capabilities. One further comment: Simplenote provides a VoiceOver accessible interface for searching for text string matches within the indivdual note files, as well as being able to pull up a list of notes with text string matches, which is a generally supported features. HTH. The review summaries will give you a good feeling for the detailed differences between these apps, and let you judge which you are likely to want to use. There's also a nice podcast that Cory Ballard did on "All with my iPad" about Elements: http://allwithmyiphone.com/2010/11/ep02/ There's also a podcast about TextExpander in the same series, if you want to learn about using that app on the iPhone with these text editors: http://allwithmyiphone.com/2010/11/ep03/ Cheers, Esther On Mar 13, 2011, at 04:40, ShamelessFanGirl wrote: > I also use nebulous.

Re: apple mail and voice over issue
Make sure cursor tracking is turned on. You can turn it on by VO plus shift plus f3. Or function plus vo shift f3 . Hth.

What Twitter client do people use on their Macs these days?
Hello all, What accessible Twitter clients do people use these days on their Macs? I am using Nambu but was wondering if there was a client I am missing?

Re: What Twitter client do people use on their Macs these days?
Hello, You've already got a good one there with Nambu, but there is one that I like a little better. It's called YoruFukurou. It has some more features than Nambu and seems to be more actively worked on with new features and improvements. You can find it here. http://sites.google.com/site/yorufukurou/home-en In My opinion, YoruFukurou and Nambu are the top two accessible twitter clients on the mac. Hope that helps.

Re: apple mail and voice over issue
Hello Sounds like you are in the mailboxes table and not the messages table possibly? I can't think of anything else off the top of my head. More info would probably help.
