Re: Two ways to deal with the problem web site [was Re: Web site problems]
Thank you all for real! (I hope you understand my terrible English) Interestingly the combination Cmd + Shift + R in Safari. But for cases like this, in which the site is so poorly designed, the best option to me is Services > New TextEdit window, in my case I puted the keyboard combination Cmd + Shift + J. It also occurs to me just as you ... services appear and disappear in the application menu? I see the service "Save selected text in iTunes", which is also fine, the problem is that despite buying the voice in Spanish by Acapella "iVox", recording on iTunes carries out English Alex's voice .. . ¿?

Feedback from Mozilla Accessibility QA regarding Firefox 4 and VoiceOver
All -- Having found that the new FIrefox 4 is still incompatible with VoiceOver, I posted a question to Marco the Mozilla Accessibility QA Lead at http://www.marcozehe.de/ Marco says VO compatibility is still on the radar but is not enabled in FF4. Here is the brief thread: Bryan says: March 24, 2011 at 1:18 am Hello Marco, I’m a Mac User and am wondering if there are any plans to make Firefox work with VoiceOver. I’ve installed Firefox 4 and it still appears to be largely incompatible with VoiceOver running under OSX 10.6. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Bryan Marco says: March 24, 2011 at 8:47 am Bryan, yes, VoiceOver support is definitely on our radar still, however lack of resources in the past have made it impossible for us to work on it in the Firefox 4 timeframe. However, the work we did for over-all performance improvements has improved the situation with VoiceOver too, as I recently tried myself. However, there are still kinks to work out and bugs to fix that prevent a good user experience. That is why accessibility for Mac OS X is still not enabled yet for Firefox 4. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

DJay 3 and Vestax spin
Hi, So i took the plunge and ordered a Vestax Spinn control surface, now i wonder if anyone has made a podcast about using the Spinn as a blind person or if someone could tell me if there's something one should be aware of when or before using the spinn? Is it hard to set up?

pyrcast, a nearly accessible pandora.com client
Hi All, I've been searching for an accessible Pandora client for the mac for quite a while now. Most of the ones I found online were webkit-based wrappers around the Pandora flash player, which suffer from the same accessibility problems as flash in general. I decided to search for Pandora on the mac App Store today, and discovered Pyrcast. As of now the controls are unlabeled. Nevertheless, it is possible to get music playing, provided you have an existing Pandora account. I've already emailed the developer about labeling the controls, so hopefully something will come of that soon. Perhaps some of the people on the list could do so as well, just to show I'm not a lone voice in the wilderness? His email address is supp...@pyrcastapp.com. I hope this client becomes accessible. Pandora really is a great service, and it would be wonderful to have a viable mac solution.

couple questions
Okay, so I was picking out my macbook pro today online. And it suggested that I get the office suite 2011 for mac, does this suite work with voice over?

Lastly, I'm coming from windows, and with JFW I don't have to use the mouse for anything. Is this the same with voice over, or do I have to use the track pad for certain things?

Importing song into iTunes and removing it from desktop

As for other accessible Pandora clients, there's also Pianopub. The buttons are unlabeled, but they're really easy to label. It's pause, skip, thumb up, thumb down.

Re: couple questions
Hi: Don't get office for Mac. It's not accessible with voiceover speech. You can do most things from the keyboard, in fact. But, You may be surprised at how nice the trackpad can be to work with. I'd recommend looking closely at Mac101 on Apple.com, which has a lot of good info about the switch from Windows. The recommended -program/applications that a lot of people use on the MAC os is iWork, which contains 3 major components for doing different things. But, you may want to not make that investment immediately, as there are alternatives best carolyn On Mar 24, 2011, at 1:11 PM, Kliph&Sharrie wrote: > Okay, so I was picking out my macbook pro today online.

Re: pyrcast, a nearly accessible pandora.com client
Vo+/ brings up Voiceover labelling dialogue. Some buttons will have a help tag if you press vo+shift+h on them, and then once you have heard their description you can type it in to the labelling dialogue and you have a labelled button. It all depends on wehther the button has such a help tag. Otherwise it is back to sighted assistance.

Fwd: pyrcast and VoiceOver
I just received this from the pyrcast developer. I wish all software developers were this prompt and willing to help. Since he calls for testers, perhaps we could all pitch in and contribute, if he can put up with a big beta team? Anyhow, I wanted to pass this along.

Re: [Bulk] Where is the history window in Skype 5?
You don't. What you do is interact with the source list just to the right of the tool bar. When you do this, and VO right, you'll see any missed events, also, any person who has asked you to authorize them. When you find it, stop interacting with the source list and you can deal with the window then. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Re: couple hard ware questions
You shouldn't notice a difference between those 2 cpu's; I doubt you even need a quad core really.

No, it has for GB, and you can put up to 8 GB. The other difference is the 2.2 has a 750 GB hard drive, and the 2.0 has a 500 GB hard drive.

Re: couple hard ware questions
Hello The new mac book pro is a dual core i7 in the 13 inch and a quad core in the 15 and 17 inch models. Deciding between the 13 and the 15, dual and quad core, will make quite a bit of difference. Other than that I wouldn't worry about it. Moving up to 8 gb of memory is something worth doing for sure. The solid state disk makes all the difference in the world. You should determine what you want to do with the machine. Let that drive your choice of machine. If you are going to be writing documents, sending mail, browsing the web and using iTunes than a upgraded mac book air would be the least expensive way to get great performance. If you need a bit more processing power for audio recording, editing and mixing or photo editing than the 13 or 15 inch mac book pro would be the way to go. Solid state disks really make a difference and you get one by default in the mac book air. The minimum amount of memory one should have in a computer with 10.6 is 4 gb in my opinion. It makes it much more enjoyable to use. I have 8 gb and an ssd in my mac book pro and it's wonderful. I have a dual core i7.

Re: couple hard ware questions
It really doesn't sound like a quad is required in this situation. If someones doing the type of work where a quad would come in useful, they will probably have some idea that they require the extra cores. Obveously the quad will perform better doing audio and video coupled with an ssd, but for every day stuff, theres really no need for a quad.

Re: couple hard ware questions
Hi The size of mac software and windows software isn't comparable. Different applications take up differing amounts of room. I have all of what I need to carry on a 240 gb ssd in the mbp. This includes a smallish iTunes library of 172 albums, iwork, ilife, pro tools and a bunch of plugins. It doesn't sound like you really know what you want to use the machine for. Anything that you get will be good enough to do most tasks. HTH --FC On Mar 24, 2011, at 6:06 PM, Kliph&Sharrie wrote: > No, it has for GB, and you can put up to 8 GB.

Re: DJ3 quick and dirty podcast for christer
Yuma, The Spin sounds like a neat control surface. Is there a way it feeds information to the Mac and ultimatley Voiceover about its functioning? Is there a control panel or driver that needs to be installed for it to work? I'm also wondering if it's possible to use an audio program to set the seek points and markers for each track. Thanks for the podcast. Kevin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: DJ3 quick and dirty podcast for christer
Kevin, There are workarounds for routing voice over to different channels, probably using sound flower as well, but in the various setups i got such as audio interfaces, i haven't been able to do it, more so because i have a rig where the macbook pro connects to the sound card, itself feeding two channels for pre queing and voice over doesn't synch through, so i believe sound flower can route voice over only channel to the headphone channel on the sound card via the mixer control. When you speak of audio software to place markers etc, you mean to use the controller as scrubbing tool in a track's timeline? I'm not sure whether it does that or whether there are drivers out there that permit it, but cue point buttons on the controller and sampler functions basically do that. If you took all three cue points from either turntable and the 3 sample record buttons in dj, you got a 9 track dynamic sequencer but you can't program how the sequences will be set, as its more of a live rig than something you can sit down on.

Re: Web site problems
In system preferences, click on keyboard and mouse first and then on keyboard shortcuts tab and then you will find two tables: categories tables and once you select your category in this case services, stop interacting with it and to the right interact with the table where you make another appropriate choice.
