Restoring The Original Arrangement.
Happy continuation of the Easter holidays folks! I am wondering here if I happened to mess around with the order of apps on the home screen on the iOS devices i.e ipod touch, ipad and iphone, is there any way to restore the order they had from settings or is the only way a factory reset with all what that means to connect to itunes, enable vo and certainly reinstall apps? -- Georges Zeinoun Timmerv. 6A, SE54163 SKÖVDE Tel: +46500201623, +46500482929 Mobile: +46707567315 E-mail: humorlessg...@samobile.net Email services provided by the System Access Mobile Network.

Re: Technical AirPort question
I understand from reading "take control books" k- and I am currently struggling with setting up a similar network to yours, Scott, that iPad has not the capacity to connect to 5ghz radio as it is still 8211G rather than N. With Express, it has as you point out a dual capacity and it should switch autimatically unless you do not allow it in the configurations. I too find the configuring troublesome as I can't seem to access certain options when extending the network. I will see what else I can find.

Re: Restoring The Original Arrangement.
Sure you can restore without doing a factory restore. Just go to Settings -> General -> Reset and swipe to "Reset Home Screen Layout".

cannot find the .m file in Xcode
Hi everyone. In trying to make a hello world program based on a command line tool template, I was instructed to find the .m file to change the code. I could only find a file called "helloWorld", "helloWorld.1", and "main.c." The Objective-C book from Apple still states that the .m file is used, so I wonder what I'm doing wrong. These files are in a table, and they're the only 3 files I can find. I'm sure it's something simple that I'm doing if that .m file does indeed exist. Thanks in advance.

Re: Technical AirPort question
Mary, yes it does. The network would not appear as an option if it could not connect. THis is the case with my iPhone 3GS. Both the iPad 1 and 2 has the ability to connect to a 5Ghz network.

Re: Technical AirPort question
Hi SImon, The iPads do have 8211N. In fact the iPhone 4 does as well, but the 3GS and previous generation iPods are 8211G only. Everything Apple has now supports 8211N. I'm going to dig into this as well and we'll exchange notes. It should be automatic and here is how I know. I took my iPhone and checked the network strength as I went from one floor to another. I noticed the number of bars dropped until the iPhone connected to the AirPort Express and then it went back up to 3 bars. Conversely with the iPad it was connected to the 5Ghz radio of the TIme Capsule and when I went to the upper floor the bars dropped from 3 to 2 and remained there. THis told me that it had not switched to the Express. My suspicion is the Express can only operate on either the 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz band instead of both as the Time Capsule or Extreme can. That is what I'm going to check into.

Re: Technical AirPort question
Hi Scott, Which version of Time Capsule do you have? The Simultaneous Dual Bandwidth one transmits both a 5GHz and 2.4 GHz signal simultaneously whereas the older version can only transmit either/or. The Airport Express is similar to the latter, whereby it can only transmit either/or. If using the newer Simultaneous Dual Bandwidth version, the Airport Express will automatically connect using the 2.4 GHz band when extending with an Airport Express as long as you haven't modified it's original settings. If you're using the older version, you will need to leave it on 2.4 GHz as the extending process only works properly on that band. Hope this makes some sort of sense. If you wish, you can contact me off-list for more info. Later...

Might be of interest for VoiceOver users of the Mac or iOS devices
Hi folks, First, an apology up front for those who might have seen this already or are seeing it twice on multiple lists. Additionally, if this violates any list policies or breaks any rules, I also apologize in advance and stand guilty of whatever rule breaking this might constitute. However, as this is VoiceOver related, I figured that I'd share. My apologies to anyone who doesn't like these kinds of "announcement" messages. I usually avoid making them, but in this case, I think the topic certainly fits the subject of these lists. I have started a new website that is meant to be a resource place for blind users of both the Mac and iDevices, and I wanted to invite the community to both visit it and to definitely feel free to contribute to it. Now, I'll first preface this by saying that I know there are more than a few sites out there that are about the Mac or iDevices in regard to their use by blind individuals. In fact, I have used more than a few to help me over the years in my efforts to learn how to utilize all of my Apple products. They are all done quite well, and I have a great deal of respect and admiration for the folks who maintain them. Understand that I am not intending on competing or outdoing any single one of them, and, instead, want mine to be an additional resource out there for the new, experienced or potential user. We are seeing a growing number of iPhone and iDevice users that is leading to adoption of the Mac, and with all the frequent questions that are consistently posed on the email lists, I wanted to gather material and information to address these areas in one place where people can benefit from the efforts of the community. You will see that it is done in a blog style. This is for two reasons. Firstly, I want it to be a very community driven site in which the users contribute their own information and material, and, subsequently, become a part of it by posting their comments and helping it grow. Also, from the perspective of a guy who is not, by trade, a web designer, the Word Press setup is easy to maintain and update without having to bother my webmaster every other day. I can't emphasize enough the importance of having you guys choose to help out. I have collected quite a bit of material for reading and even downloading over the years, which has also kindly been contributed with permission by various folks already. Please take a long look at the site and provide us with feedback. Yes, you will see that there are areas that are quite lacking, but this is where the community will come into play. I have put in place the foundation and structure of the site, but my goal is to have you guys provide the building blocks and material that will construct it into something more and more each passing day. So not to clutter your inbox any more, you will read in my opening few posts on the blog as to what it is we are looking for and how to contribute to our effort. Please feel free to look it all over and provide us with feedback. Let us know what we are missing, what we could do better and, most importantly, please contribute with additional information and even your questions. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated, and we hope that you guys will assist us in making it a comprehensive and diverse place for the blind Mac, iPhone, iPad or iPod user.

Re: Technical AirPort question
Hi Tim, Thanks and that is pretty much what I thought and determined from what I read. I understand the 8211G hardware will drag a 8211N network down, but from what I have been told, it is not that bad in general. For example, if the G devices are not connected, I'm not going to see any loss unless they do connect. Since my ADSL connection is slow, any inbound traffic will not benefit in any case and only machine to machine transfers would really benefit (or streaming). SO, I stopped segregating the G devices from the N devices and my connection issues went away. The goal at the end of the day was to ensure that when we were using our iPads or iPhones and moving about the house, the devices would switch from the Time Capsule to the Express without loosing the connection. THe way I had it setup, I effectively split my network into two networks and created problems for myself. I did this by going into the options of the Time Capsule and giving the 5Ghz network a different name. APple does not clearly indicate what all happens, but essentially that seems to break the network into two parts. I know all this probably isn't making much sense, but the good news is it seems to be working. :) I also learned that any device capable of utilizing the 5Ghz network will do so and any 2.4Ghz device will connect to that 5Ghz network. Here I thought the iPad was able to connect to a 5Ghz network, but it is connecting at 2.4Ghz. Ah this wireless stuff gives me a headache. :() If it was not so difficult, I'd run cable and setting up the network would be easier in many ways. HOwever, my wife has fits about holes in the walls. :) That is another subject for another day. :) Thanks, Scott On Apr 25, 2011, at 12:36 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote: > Hi Scott, > > Which version of Time Capsule do you have?

Re: First-time download of bookshare book on Mac: how to unzip
Hi: You need a program called the Unarchiver. I'm sure if you do a Google search, you'll come up with it. It's free and works great! :) Once you have this program, you can VO/shift/M on the zipped folder, arrow to open with, enter and the Unarchiver will be one of your choices. Enter on that, and you folder will be unzipped as soon as you enter your password when prompted. hth On Apr 25, 2011, at 3:43 PM, Christine Grassman wrote: > Hello, all.

The bookshare books are password protected, and the built in zip utility cannot handle these. If you do a search for a program called the unarchiver, it will unzip these without problems.

Re: First-time download of bookshare book on Mac: how to unzip
Another program called StuffIt Expander, which you can find on the Mac App Store, will also handle password-protected zip files just fine. Hope this helps, Zack.

Re: extremely frustrated re: reading pfd files
Hey all. Sorry it took this long for me to reply. Tony, you don't necessarily need to bookmark where you are in preview if you set the view to single-page mode. To do this, in Preview, open the PDF you wish to read, then go into the menu bar with VO+M, go to view, and the first thing you see is PDF display. There should be several options that say single page, single page continuous, 2 pages, 2 pages continuous, crop box and media box. You probably have it set to single page continuous so if you set it to just single page, then you won't need to bookmark where you leave off everytime because once you set it to single page, Preview automatically remembers where you leave off. Now that you've done this, to switch pages, simply press the function key which is located at the very bottom left of the keyboard plus either the down or up arrow keys. HTH and happy reading. Single page mode should remember where you leave off, it does for me. Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Advice on opening Imac

Re: Advice on opening Imac
Send it to Apple, especially if its still under warranty. The iMac will probably have a compartment that lets you access the ram; perhaps even the harddrive and the airport card, but without looking at the mac in person, I'm fairly sure that you'd be needing to remove the motherboard or logic board in order to really get at the sd card slot. Taking computers apart can be really fun and theres no reason why a total can't get very good at it, but trust me, you don't want your first take apart to be a iMac.

Re: Free Eyenote Software Application
The app is out there. From what I hear, though, it is inferior to the Money Reader app, which costs $0.99. The free app requires you to take a picture and is not nearly as fast or accurate. However, it does provide vibratory feedback on supported devices (iPhones) so the deaf-blind can use it, a feature currently lacking in the paid alternative. Still, the $0.99 app is, from what I have read, faster and more accurate since you need only show the bill to the camera instead of taking a picture. Note that I have not tried out the free app yet so am not speaking from personal experience.

Mobile Facebook site is back
Earlier I posted that the Mobile Facebook site was down. It appears to ne working now though, though my computer had problems loading it. I think that part of the problem in the first place was Safari and Vo fighting which they have been doing for a while. I wrote to accessibility and they said they would pass it on to the appropriate party for further research, but who knows if I'll ever hear or see the results. Some sites load fine, but many don't without having to thurn Vo off and then turning it back on when the page is loaded. Once they're loaded they are fine. My computer has a mind of its own, and lately it's been anything but cooperative.

The app is called EyeNote(tm). EyeNote(tm) is a mobile device app designed for Apple iPhone (3G, 3Gs, 4), and the 4th Generation iPod Touch and iPad2 platforms, and is available starting today through the Apple iTunes App Store. EyeNote(tm) uses image recognition technology to determine a note's denomination. The mobile device's camera requires 51 percent of a note's scanned image, front or back, to process. In a matter of seconds, EyeNote(tm) can provide an audible or vibrating response, and can denominate all Federal Reserve notes issued since 1996. Free downloads will be available whenever new US currency designs are introduced. Research indicates that more than 100,000 blind and visually impaired individuals currently own an Apple iPhone.

These measures include implementing a Currency Reader Program whereby a United States resident, who is blind or visually impaired, may obtain a coupon that can be applied toward the purchase of a device to denominate United States currency; continuing to add large high contrast numerals and different background colors to redesigned currency; and, raised tactile features may be added to redesigned currency, which would provide users with a means of identifying each denomination via touch.

The App Switcher And The Keybord Dock.
Hello friends! I am pressing home on the ipad keybord dock and the app switcher is coming. Here I wonder, I know I must double tap and hold until I hear the sound and editing apps prompt comes, so is there an equivalent to double tap and hold from the ipad keybord dock? Thanks for all help I got previously so long, regards. -- Georges Zeinoun Timmerv. 6A, SE54163 SKÖVDE Tel: +46500201623, +46500482929 Mobile: +46707567315 E-mail: humorlessg...@samobile.net Email services provided by the System Access Mobile Network.
