Re: Extremely Frustrated trying to copy and paste . . .
Hi All, I too use the Copy Last Phrase command and find it extremely useful. However, I usually Press VO v to display the Verbosity Dialogue and set Verbosity to Low first. Then the copy doesn't include "heading level 3", "link", etc. Regards.

Expand and collapse arrows in iTunes podcast area
Guys, I was looking at my podcasts in iTunes on the Mac and I noticed that I couldn't operate the expand disclosure triangle except by accident. I have no idea how I did it. I have enough vision to do it with my trackpad and my fingers. But I was, I thought, in the LCD section of the iTunes window when i accidentally pressed a key combination that expanded the podcast dropdown options. I never managed to repeat the trick. How does one do that intentionally? Thanks, Kevin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Question about trackpad
Hi guys, I've been wanting to experiment with using trackpad gestures to perform some vo functions like interact with element as I seem to have trouble pressing control, option and shift simultaneously. The problem is I can't get my trackpad to speak when I touch it. I know the trackpad is responding because a sighted person has told me the cursor moves around when I touch the trackpad, but what am I doing or not doing? Do I need to turn something on? Check something? Any help is appreciated. Kimber -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Question about trackpad
Hi Kimber, You can start by turning on the trackpad commander. You can do this either in Voiceover utility or by putting two fingers down on the pad and rotating them clockwise while holding down control and option. I personally use this latter method with my right thumb and index finger. It might take a bit of getting used too at first, but the gestures really are very efficient, quite similar to the ones on my iPod Touch. Hope this helps, Zack.

Re: Extremely Frustrated trying to copy and paste . . .
Hello all, I haven't used the command vo+shift+c to do this task. What I do, and it works in most of the cases: I switch from dom-mode (used by default) to group-mode when I want to select text on a webpage. To do this switch quickly, I have assigned a keystroke in the keyboard-commander. When I am in group-mode, It seems to be much more easy to select text on a webpage with shift+down-arrow (also or only if quicknav is on).

Re: Web site problems
Hello Marcelo, I've had a look at the site and it really is awful! The only way I could get VO to read any real content was by using the Item Chooser and just letting VO read in that. Selecting an item from the Item Chooser didn't let me read. I only succeeded in finding text on a page by reading the screen with my Optacon, picking out a word and looking for that word in the Item Chooser. Not good at all.

Two ways to deal with the problem web site [was Re: Web site problems]
Hello Anne and Marcelo, I can get that page to read with VoiceOver using Safari Reader. Try pressing Command-Shift-R. The text for the article will come up separately and be read by VoiceOver. However, this will only work to display the main blog article -- it won't show up the comments. The best solution I found for reading the Web page was to set up a Services Menu Shortcut using "New TextEdit Window Containing Selection", do a Command-A (select all) on the web page, then apply the shortcut to send the contents to TextEdit, where it will automatically start reading normally with VoiceOver. You need to do two things to set this up: (1) Add the "New TextEdit Window Containing Selection" option by checking it under the "Services" options in the Keyboard Shortcuts pane of your Keyboard menu under "System Preferences" and (2) Assign this service option to an application keyboard shortcut. The second step is not strictly necessary, but will save you a few navigation steps if you use this a lot. The difference is that instead of pressing Command-A to select all on the web page, and then navigating to the entry for "New TextEdit Window Containing Selection" that now shows up in the Services sub-menu of the Safari menu on the menu bar, you simply press your assigned shortcut key combination after doing the "Select All". You might need to restart Finder or log in again to have the shortcut take effect immediately after setting up the shortcut definition, because I believe that the Services menu shortcut will apply to selections in all applications (not just Safari), and that might require a restart to take effect. Here are the steps: 1. Open "System Preferences" (Control+F2 to the Apple menu on the menu bar, Arrow down, type "s y" and press return) 2. In "System Preferences" navigate to the "Keyboard Menu" and VO+Space to open it 3. On the "Keyboard Menu" navigate to the "Keyboard Shortcuts" tab select it (VO+Space) 4. On the "Keyboard Shortcuts" tab navigate to the "Shortcuts Categories" table and interact (VO-Shift Down arrow). VO+right arrow to the second column (category names), then VO+Down arrow to select "Services". Stop interacting with the "Shortcuts Categories" tabel. 5. VO+Right arrow to the "Table of services" and interact, VO+Right arrow to the second column (services names). 6. Use item chooser menu (VO+I), and type "t e x t e" then VO+Down arrow to "New TextEdit Window Containing Selection". VO+Space to select. Make sure that this service selection is checked (VO+Left arrow to the first column, if needed) 7. Stop interacting with the table (VO+Shift Up Arrow) At this point, you could close the System Preferences menu (Command+W), and "New TextEdit Window Containing Selection" will appear as an option in the Services menu, which you access from your application (Preview, Safari, etc.) after selecting text by using Control+F2 to move to the menu bar, VO+Right arrow to the Application name, then arrow down to menu and press "s e" to go to services, VO+Right arrow to the submenu and VO+Down arrow. There's now an entry for "New TextEdit Window Containing Selection" If you want to assign this service option an application keyboard shortcut, instead of closing the window, take the following steps: 8. VO+Right arrow to "Add an Application Shortcut" button and VO+Space 9. In the dialog window VO+right arrow past application to the pop up menu button, VO+space, and choose "All Applications" 10. VO+Right arrow past Menu title to the text field and type or paste in (exactly): New TextEdit Window Containing Selection 11. VO+RightRight Arrow to the Keyboard shortcut and press the shortcut key combination you want to use e.g. Command+Shift+Option+W) 12. VO+Right arrow to the Add button and VO+Space 13. Command+Q to quit system preferences To send all the text from the web page, select all with Command+A, then use Command-Shift-Option-W to send your selection to a TextEdit window. You can select parts of text, and you can choose other shortcut combinations for your shortcut. Just make sure this doesn't conflict with some other shortcut your might use. The Service Menu option for sending to TextEdit is faster and uses fewer system resources than doing a copy and paste. HTH.

Re: Extremely Frustrated trying to copy and paste . . .
Hi Mike, I believe a more objective user might put it differently. The sentence I have in mind is that the JFW virtual viewer handles this infinitely better than VO/Safari. I fear that the all too ubiquitous Pollyannaish attitude often seen on this list that voiceOver can do no wrong will result in VI users having inferior functionality in this and other browsing tasks on the MacOS platform for decades to come. Frankly, when I need to copy a large section of text from a web page (E.G. sharing the latest Ann Coulter column I boot up my XP machine!! I suspect Christine was already aware of all suggestions offered in this thread so far prior to authoring her post. the problem is that IMHO the solutions offered are not viable because in many instances such as the one sighted above, there can be hundreds of chunks of text which all need to be copied one at a time, MHO rendering the task impossible. Since there is no feedback given as you use the shift arrow keys, there is no way to limit the selection, hence it's almost easier to select all and cut it down. Much faster to boot up my XP machine and selectively copy what I want n one step. If I'm missing something I'd love to be shown the error of my ways, but Christine has documented what I believe to be a major VO deficiency. Best regards.

Re: Expand and collapse arrows in iTunes podcast area
Ricardo, What I was referring to is the disclosure triangle that allows you to expand a podcast heading to show you the specific podcasts under the main title. The VO Backslash hides and shows the items under the main heading. HTH Kevin On Mar 23, 11:11 am, Ricardo Walker wrote: > I'm not sure what you mean. Drop down options?

Re: Two ways to deal with the problem web site [was Re: Web site problems]
Dear Esther, I have no idea what I do wrong but the New TextEdit Window Containing Selection does not appear in the services menu. I've followed the instructions contained in your e-mail to the letter but to no avail. The maddening thing is that I had once succeeded to activate this service and assign it a shortcut key on another mac computer. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I was careful to type in the name with its related capitals. But even before assigning the shortcut, the selection of the service did not result in the service appearing under the service menu in Safari for instance.

Re: Read system time with VO
I also just wanted to add that I created a new addition to my keyboard commander collection. this one opens iTunes with right option I. I guess the next thing I'd like to add would be a shortcut for Pages using right option P. the only problem is that, when i open Pages from the doc, I end up in the template chooser, which I personally find a PITA. I'd prefer landing in a blank portrait oriented document, much like you do in Text Edit, from where I could use a standard "Open Recent File" command to open the doc I want. Any ideas?

Re: Two ways to deal with the problem web site [was Re: Web site problems]
Dear Simon, I wrote up the instructions under OS 10.6.4 before Christmas. (At the time, my own computer had a bad disk sector, so I was using my PowerBook G4 from 2005!) I did set this up on my current computer under 10.6.5, but since I was doing this for myself, I didn't try to exactly document the steps I repeated as I did them. My recollection is that I may have needed to login again for the settings to take effect -- at least for the shortcut. Let me take a look at setting this up on someone's MacBook Air later today, and I'll get back to you. The services menu options will not appear unless you first select text, by the way. And you should be able to use this to send selected text to TextEdit from any Cocoa application (such as Preview or Mail). This was most discussed on the mac-access list a while ago, because Paul Hopewell has been using this. Thanks for providing feedback, and I will check this.

Hi Kevin, Look into the Pages preferences with cmd-comma. That will let you decide whether to open the template chooser or not, among other things. Hope this helps, Zack.

Selecting section of website
Hello everyone, Here's how to select part of a web page and copy it into a text document. • Find the start point for your selection and set a hotspot (VO-Shift-number), it must not be a link; • Find the end point for your selection and set a second hotspot, once again, not a link; • Turn cursor tracking off (VO-Shift-F3); • Bring the mouse to the hotspot (VO-Cmd-F5); • Check that the mouse is actually on the hotspot (VO-F5); • Click the physical mouse or trackpad; • Go to first hotspot (VO-number); • Bring the mouse to the hotspot; • Check that the mouse is on the hotspot; • Hold down the Shift key and click the mouse or trackpad; • Press Cmd-C to copy the text. If you've succeeded in highlighting text, you'll hear "Copy". Cheers, Anne -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Selecting section of website
Or you can go to a block of text, hit vo-shift-c, open up a document, and hit command-v. You can do this for any subsequent blocks as well. THis will obviously not be a method that is preferred by everyone, but it sure is easy.

I have not designed my own scripts but others certainly have done so. >>> Best wishes >>> On 22 Mar 2011, at 07:33, Kevin Gibbs wrote: >>> > How do you enable apple scripts? >>> > -- > 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. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group > athttp://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >> >> -- >> 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. >> 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. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@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.

Acapela voices
Hi Kevin and all, I wanted to chime in on the Acaepla voices thread. Kevin, you can get acapela voices from Origin Instruments. I think the link is: http://www.nextup.com/acapela.html I think the company I purchased them from was Origin Instruments. I have the British ENglish and U.S. voices. You have to purchase the U.S. voices Heather, Ryan and laura installed first if you'd like to have the British voices. I think the cost was $99 for the first pack of voices and then if you purchase more I believe the cost is reduced. I hope this helps. have a great day.

Re: Two ways to deal with the problem web site [was Re: Web site problems]
Dear Esther, You are right, and you are mostly right on most occasions. That was the missing factor. Having read your response, I selected your message in Mail and then checked in the services menu and indeed it did appear. I thought the item in question would always be there - never imagined it would only appear if one had actually selected a piece of text. So yes, it works perfectly well. I hope you are not going to waste your valuable time checking on it now. That is the missing piece of information in the otherwise perfect ste-by-step description of what needs to be done. So - as I know you do - you could add this to the description and save it - as I know you do because you are much more sensible than I am - until some other new-be like myself comes along and wants the same thing.

Wow! That is way, way, too much work to select content from a web page. I think this is something Apple should really look into simplifying, and making reliable.

Re: Expand and collapse arrows in iTunes podcast area
Oh, why not just change that playlist to list view with command option 3. This way you can just press the right and left arrows to expand and collapse the podcast headings. Actually, I prefer all my playlists to be shown in list view.

Re: Selecting section of website
Hi Ricardo: I couldn't agree with you more. It's nice to know one can take about 20 steps to do something that should take 2 or 3. ! I'm planning to take this up with my Vo trainer. She's usually pretty good about writing to accessibility about things she encounters in our sessions. The neat thing is she is going to continue working with me, because our sessions have become more of an ideas exchange, and she learns from the little things I bring in to learn about. So, it's turned into a good resource for both of us. Take care On Mar 23, 2011, at 3:45 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Wow! > > That is way, way, too much work to select content from a web page.

acapella voices
Hi. I've used the Acapela voices on here, like them a lot. I do have a few negatives though. The first is that in between periods, the voices pause longer than the standard Mac voices do. I don't know if this is how Acapela made them or if it's because of Voice Over, but it gets annoying after a while. I'd rather use good old Mac Alex to read my stuff. Secondly, Assistiveware charges you an arm and a leg for Infovox Ivox plus the voices, I think the highest I've seen was around $400 and the lowest I've seen was $99 just for a program that's not a screen reader. I told them that I was interested in buying the voices but don't want to pay the high price for them and they told me to try Ghost Reader which the voices won't work with Voice Over from what I heard. But all in all, I like the voices. I can't wait to try out Acapela Tracy, the new US English female voice they just released. She's available for Infovox 3 on the PC and should be available soon for Infovox Ivox or so Assistiveware has told me. Go to acapelagroup.com and listen to how she sounds. You might be surprised.

I broke click to flash!
Hi guys! I was having issues with click to flash today. Ever since I got home, I would click on flash videos, then interact with the thing adn click play on click to flash, and there was no audio. I checked for an update, sure enough there was one. The update, however, broke click to flash. I now think flash loads automatically, I can't find a way to stop it, and the play, back 30 seconds button, etc are no longer visible to voiceover. I'd either like to revert back to the old version of click to flash, or find some other alternative program.
