most informative thread indeed.
I have never been a windows user at all, and am enjoying just getting to
know the mac or the vo one, have another mac with speakup on it.
Granted such threads are highly individual, but are there tasks that in
general remain on apple's to allow list ?
I understand that firefox is not an open option yet for example?
Thanks,
Karen

Re: Weird Macbook charger problem for Chris

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

OK, but if Apple's aware of all this, then why should we have to pay for 
something that's their falt, not our's?  Why would the protection plan go 
into effect to cover their! screw up!

Subject: Weird Macbook charger problem for Chris


Hi Chris and all,

I'm so sorry to hear about your problem with your Macbook.  I had this 
happen to me a few months ago. At first, what you described happened. It did 
it only a little at first, and then a lot, then a whole lot and then ... it 
stopped working altogether.  The Macbook would not turn on, I took it back 
to Apple and they claimed I spilled liquids on it. I had them fix it since I 
paid for the Applecare protection plan. To make a really long story short, 
this happened twice more.  Apple  gave me a new charger which didn't seem to 
resolve the problem either. After the third attempt at fixing it with no 
luck, Apple gave me a new Macbook. They were great about  resolving my 
issue. I wonder if it may be a problem with the late 2010 models. Mine is 
also a white Macbook not a Pro, just a Macbook but it is late 2009. After 
this incident, I purchased a chillmat. I like this option much better than a 
lap desk. I don't use the fan often, but if I need to, I just plug the mat 
in to the USB port and the fan runs. This allows my Macbook to be cool. Oh, 
I also forgot to say that during the time my Macbook was at Apple's depot, 
they replaced the battery as well as the motherboard. If you can, see if you 
can spare your Macbook and take it in to an Apple store. I hope this helps. 
Have a great day.


Musically,
Allison

Re: using a mac full time?

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

OK, great, so what do you do if you have no net access and need to scan 
paper work for a client, or fill out paper work for a job etc.


Then you're up the creak without a paddle, ey?

This is why me personally... I have a real problem with the whole cloud 
technology approach.  It's a neet idea, but, it has way too many drawbacks.

I used to use OpenBook as an excuse to keep using Windows, but no more. 
There is a program called DocuScan that can be used on both Windows and 
Mac.  To me, it seems so easy to use a 10 year old could use it.  There is 
one drawback.  That is that it requires Internet access.

Re: Accessible mudding client for the mac

[Zachary Kline]

Hi Anouk,
Atlantis is a Coco app which works on Intel macs, so no, Rosetta isn't 
required.  Coco is the GUI framework though, so a PowerPC, or Rosetta, app 
could be a Coco app as well, just to clarify.  
Hope this helps,
Zack.

Re: Skype 5.2 and conference calls

[Ray Foret Jr]

So far as adding people to a call, you just VO+left to the "Add people" button 
and press it.  Then, you need to type the first few letters of your contact's 
name you wish to add and interact with the table.  That will help narrow down 
the choices in the table.  IF you just interact with the table at that point, 
you will see everyone of your contacts.  You MUST interact with this table in 
order to make use of it.  When you find the contact you wish to add, press 
return  twice.

This doesn't make any sense.  I think whoever you spoke to at Comcast got 
their wires crossed.


Whether or not the comcast modem assigns addresses to your LAN has no 
relation to whether or not you have a dynamic or static IP address on the 
net.  They're two completely separate things.  You should be able to just 
do it in the interface of the modem/router and Comcast don't need to do 
anything.

Re: using a mac full time?

It's a bit pricy, but if you scan a lot of books you'd be better off selling 
your openbook and putting the money towards an  eyepal.

The eyepal isn't perfect, but as a solution for quickly and accurately 
transcribing large numbers of pages it is super.

Docuscan versus Voscan

[Allison Manzino]

Hi all,

I know this has been discussedp previously. But I was wondering could anyone 
give me a comparison between Docuscan and Voscan? I know people on this list 
use both. I have the Intel Reader made by Humanware which I love, but it 
doesn't always recognize the document I'm scanning. For picutres and things 
that need to be faxed it doesn't work well. I was wondering how many people use 
Docuscan? How is easy is it to use? What are the pros and cons of Voscan and 
Docuscan? I still use Kurzweil 1000 on my HP. I may be moving to Spain in the 
near future and I'm thinking about a portable solution I can take with me that 
would serve me well. My fiancé is also an artist, so I thought this might be 
good for him as well for photos etc. Thank you for any assistance you can 
provide. Have a great day. 

Happily,
Allison

Re: Skype 5.2 and conference calls

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

Ray, that is absolutely awesome!  The only thing I wonder then is how then do I 
hang up on a person that is in the conference without killing everyone?

Also, say I am in a Skype call and receive another call, how do I put the first 
call on hold, and go answer the incoming call, then when done return to the 
first caller?  Finally, does anyone know how to record your Skype voicemail 
greeting?

Re: [Bulk] Re: Skype 5.2 and conference calls

[Ray Foret Jr]

Okay.  Here's how to choose who to hang up on.  Look using VO+right arrow once 
the conference is underway.  You will notice that each participant has a pop up 
menu all their own.  Let us suppose you want to hang up on me and I'm one of 
five people in the conference.  Wel, using VO+right arrow, you find "Ray menu" 
or something like that, anyhow, you will know it's me.  When you press VO+space 
on this, you will observe that one of your choices is to hang up on me.  Press 
VO+space on this and I'm gone; but, everybody else is left.  You will notice 
however, that my conversation window remains active.  this allows you to call 
me back if you want.  to close my window, just use the standard command+w.  

HTH.

I believe there's a utility called Grapher that does this built into SL.

Re: Skype 5.2 and conference calls

Hi,
When you're in a conversation, press cmd+shift+a to add people. You will be in 
a window with an edit box and a table. Type part of a name in the edit box, 
then vo+right arrow once to the table and interact with it. Here should be a 
list of names corresponding to the letters you typed. Select a name that you

My very first full on attempt with Amadeus, baby!

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

OK guys,

I'm telling you all? now!  I'm a newby bigtime at doing audio on the Mac, so 
I make no? guaranties of anything here!  This may sound attrocious! to some. 
It's not ProTools quality by no means, but I did manage to multi-track all 
the instruments with my keyboard and put in my vocals, and add effects.  The 
mix is slightly hot on the mike, and I clip badly in a few places, but 
again, forgive me.  I'm still learning.


This certainly isn't the final draft by no means, but I thought you all may 
like to hear what I got, so far.


So, with no further ado, here is the download link.

This is a cover of a roxette track called Here comes the Weekend, from their 
Tourism album.


Enjoy, I hope.

  So far as adding people to a call, you just VO+left to the "Add people" 
button and press it.  Then, you need to type the first few letters of your 
contact's name you wish to add and interact with the table.  That will help 
narrow down the choices in the table.  IF you just interact with the table at 
that point, you will see everyone of your contacts.  You MUST interact with 
this table in order to make use of it.  When you find the contact you wish to 
add, press return  twice.

If you have a track pad, after routing the mouse to the voiceover cursor 
on the "sync" menu, put your finger on the track pad and move it slowly 
left, you should be hearing "application name button". It might be

Hi,
Beside the "sync" menu there's a menu where many icons for apps are,

some strange reason, those menu choices aren't accessible in the 
standard way with Voiceover. There is no way as far as i know to get at

crashes on me after having scanned a document, and when it works, the ocr 
isn't at all as good as that of Abbyy finereader Express, which is my ocr 
app of choise. I don't know why this is, only that it is like that. I use 
the 64 bit version.

Hi Ann,

Is VueScan available through the MAC app store?  

Also, can you do batch scanning for books?  

Thanks,
Brian M

Re: complex networking question (double nating)

Hi.
In addition to what Jeff said, you should just be able to set you're airport 
router to point to the comcast modem as it's default gateway.
Sounds like that tek at comcast needs to find a new job.

Joining a call to aa conference on skype?

Hi,
Is there an easy way to answer and join an incoming call to a conference on

Also, is there a way to invite someone to conference?
We can't seem to find a way to do it.

Re: [Bulk] Joining a call to aa conference on skype?

[Ray Foret Jr]

See the list archives for my recent instructions how to add someone to a Skype 
call.  Also, to answer a Skype call, just press the accept button in the 
dialog.  Answering a call from a conference is the same as answering a call 
from one person.

Remember, to add a person, Just press the add person button in the window.

Question about Photobooth

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

Hey there.

So, got a question about photobooth.

I have a cat who just insists on jumping down out of my arms right when I hit 
the shutter button.  I'm desperetly wanting to get a pic of her and I to set as 
my wallpaper.  Yeah, I could have someone else take one with my phone or what 
not, but the eyesight camera is just so great for things like this.  I'm just 
wonderring... is there a way that I can delay the amount of time before it 
snaps any more than the default?  I know you hear the 4 little tones before it 
snaps, but that isn't enough as the minute I take one of my hands off of her to 
go to the keybgoard and hit the shutter button, she either claws me, or jumps 
down.  I figure there has to be a better way to do this, than trying to make 
her cooperate.  LOL!  She'll do it, she just doesn't like being held for very 
long.  Also, are there any tricks on the 13 inch white macbooks for being sure 
I don't have the screen tilted too far forward or back and so I'll be almost 
sure to get from my shoulders up?  I almost have gotten the hang of it, but 
what's the best way to make sure I'm aimed correctly and that the camera has me 
in the view.

Chris.

Re: using a mac full time?

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Brian,

Yes, VueScan can do batch scanning. You have to get the orientation right 
yourself either by putting the document into the scanner the correct way round, 
or by using the Rotate controls in VueScan.

I can scan a double page at a time in my portable scanner, and for that, I have 
to set VueScan to rotate right.

You can set the number of seconds between scans and you have to press Cmd-g to 
tell it when to stop because you've done the last page.

You download VueScan from the developer's site:
www.hamrick.com

You'll find a table with all the available versions of VueScan for Mac, Windows 
and Linux.

Cheers,

Anne

Apple Script for Double Space in Text Edit

[Jim Fettgather]

Hi, it really  is not too difficult to interact with the ruler in Text
Edit to set the line spacing to double space in a document.

However, I wonder if it would be possible to write an apple script to
accomplish the task with a keystroke?

Thanks for any thoughts.

Re: using a mac full time?

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Krister,

If you do much OCR with ABBYY FineReader, then you won't want to upgrade to 
Lion in a hurry. According to
roaringapps.com FineReader isn't compatible with Lion. However, VueScan is 
shown as compatible with Lion.

Cheers,

Anne

Gmail Contacts

[Robert Hooper]

Hello:

I was recently involved in a conversation with my sister, who is considering 
switching from her current Android-powered device to an iPhone. She said that 
an important factor would be the contacts feature. She said that she put a lot 
of time into her contacts, and has all of them stored on Gmail. She wanted to 
know whether the iPhone could download or synchronize her Gmail contacts from 
her account, thus saving her time manually re-entering them. As I do not have a 
Gmail account, I can't answer this question in any sort of detail for her. I 
use Exchange, which seems to do fine as far as synchronization is concerned. 
So, if anyone has any light to shed on this matter, I would really appreciate 
said light and the shedding of such.
Thanks,

RE: Gmail Contacts

[Blake Sinnett]

Hi,
 
It works great. I use Google Voice, but the way you set it up on the iOS device 
is the same. When you add an account, choose Microsoft Exchange. Enter your 
email, username and password. Click next and let it verify, then enter the 
server m.google.com in the server field and hit next. After that, choose what 
you want to be synced, hit save and off it goes.

I suppose, Since ABBYY FineReader works with Snow Leopard, there's no reason 
for it not to be in the Mac Appstore at the moment. I wonder what will happen 
once Lion is released.

Looking at the Roaring Apps site, there are quite a few apps that won't work.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Apple Script for Double Space in Text Edit

[Esther]

Hi Jim,

There's an easier solution for what you want to do, which is simply to save the 
spacing, alignment, and fonts that you want to use in TextEdit as a style file, 
and select that style when you open TextEdit.  I think you could even make it 
the default, but I don't do that, and having multiple style options lets me 
select the one that I want for each occasion. Using the Mail Archive secondary 
archive address and typing "TextEdit style" into the search box, then pressing 
return, immediately brought up the post pasted in below:

Re: Double-Spacing and changing font with TextEdit

Hi Brianna, Tim, Marlaina, and Others,

I wanted to add a suggestion that will make it easier for you to use
TextEdit: once you have configured the spacing and fonts to your
satisfaction, save these settings as a style file under a name of your
choice.  Then, when you want to create a Rich Text document with
double spacing and a specific font, all you need to do is navigate to
the ruler, select that style from the first pop up button, and start
typing.

I'll paste in old instructions for saving to a style file to TextEdit
when working in Rich Text Mode, which I think are still applicable:

1. Interact with the "Styles" pop up button in the ruler and select
"Other".
2. Then in the dialog window that appears, press the "Add to
favorites" button and supply a name for the style. You can check the
boxes for "Include the ruler as part of the style" and "include the
font as part of the style".
3. To use one of your saved style files when you open a new TextEdit
window, first ensure that your window is set to rich text format (you
can switch to this from the "View" menu, or use the Command+Shift+T
shortcut), then choose the template from the pop up "Styles" button in
the ruler.
4. This will automatically set your page to the line spacing, font
type, and alignment options that you set up for this style.

Tim's web pages have always been my favorite place to point out to new
Mac users. They're laid out the way I would want to lean VoiceOver.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther



Cheers,
Esther

Re: using a mac full time?

Hi,

I would assume nothing would happen.  After all, there will be plenty of people 
who won't upgrade to Lion right away or at all, and there will be those running 
both lion and snow leopard.

Re: using a mac full time?

[Caitlyn Furness]

I'm using my mac full time.  I'm running fusion and use nvda on that with win 
xp.  I'm using k 1000 with that, and think you can run open book as well.  As 
an alternative, there is now docuscan plus from the serotek folks.  I can't 
tell you how good it is, though, since every time I've personally tried to run 
it it crashes.  It's apparently something to do with my mac timing out or 
something like that(which really doesn't make sense to me), but to try it you 
can get a trial version and try it for yourself and see how you like it.  I did 
get the pdf recognition to work, and it did that part pretty well.  The k1000 
works really, really well, though, and the windows runs better on my mac then 
it did natively, weirdly enough.

Oh, for what it's worth, my mac happens to be the maxed out i 5 with 8 g of 
ram, and I gave my windows a gig of ram with fusion.

hth,
Caitlyn

Lion readiness of ABBYY FineReader Express [was Re: using a mac full time?]

[Esther]

Hi Anne and Others,

What is odd is that the version of ABBYY FineReader for the Fujitsu ScanSnap 
for the Mac, which is the build that was released for these scanners some time 
ago, shows up on the Fujitsu pages as being checked out as Lion ready. Can't 
test this myself, though.

Cheers,

Esther

I haven't had a chance to look at the Safari keyboard reference yet.  I
probably will have time to do that later this evening or tomorrow.  I thank
you for doing this because I'm somewhat new to the Mac.  I also appreciate
you taking the time to put one together for mail as well.  Could you do the
same for text editor as well?

 

Thank you so much!

Re: Gmail Contacts

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

Most! Definitely! she can!  When she gets her IPhone, have her go in ITunes and 
highlight the IPhone in her sources list, then go over to the info tab.  In 
there she can check sync contacts, then there is a pop up button to sync with 
Google.  When she does this, it'll ask for her e-mail and password.  Put that 
in, go to the copassity bar, and interact with it, hit apply, and vuala!

Pretty cool, huh!

  It works great. I use Google Voice, but the way you set it up on the iOS

your email, username and password. Click next and let it verify, then enter the 
server m.google.com in the server field and hit next. After that, choose what 
you want to be synced, hit save and off it goes.

Re: Safari Keyboard Reference Posted

[Esther]

Hi Doug,

One suggested addition for your Safari Keyboard Reference, unless you want to 
limit yourself to only cover commands listed under the Safari menu bar: Add the 
fact that pressing Command-1, Command-2 etc. will activate the first 9 
bookmarks in the Bookmarks Menu Bar, whether the Bookmarks Menu Bar is shown or 
hidden.

You might want to amend the descriptions for viewing and bookmark options to 
"show/hide" or "hide/show" for the commands that are toggle actions, e.g.:

Viewing:
To hide/show the tool bar press “Command-|”
To hide/show the Bookmarks Bar press “Command-Shift-b”.
To hide/show the Tab Bar press “Command-shift-t”.
To hide/show the Status Bar press “Command-/”.

Bookmarks:
To Show/Hide All Bookmarks press “Command-Option-b”.

You've written this up for the default Safari browser settings, which is fine, 
but many VoiceOver users choose to hide their bookmarks menu, etc. (so those 
items don't show up in item chooser menu), so it's convenient to know which 
shortcuts are toggles. 

Also, FYI when on the "Show All Bookmarks" page of Safari (Command-Option-b), 
the Command-f acts as filter to only show matches to bookmarks that contain the 
search string.  

If you're curious, you can point your browser to:
file:///Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Shortcuts.html

(You may have to copy this, then navigate to your address bar with Command-l, 
paste with command-v, and then press return to activate the link.)

This is a pointer to the Shortcuts resource page within your Safari Application 
Contents on your machine.  Some of these are alternative shortcuts, like 
"delete" and "shift-delete" to go backwards and forwards.  Also, one of the 
very commonly used Safari shortcuts for VoiceOver users is "Option-return" (or 
"Option-enter" if you're used to Windows naming "return" as the "enter" key).  
This is one of the shortcuts listed under "Other browser window shortcuts" as 
"Option-click a link" to download a file.  VoiceOver automatically 
selects/highlights links that it moves to, which is what the click action by 
sighted users does, so you only have to press "return" after pressing "option" 
to complete the action.  You'll find this is true for the other shortcuts that 
specify clicking on the link, too, so "Command-return" on a link will open the 
link in a new window or tab.

This shortcuts list was technically for Safari 4, so I'd check out any 
shortcuts before including, if you're interested in this.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

can't find nas storage on my network from VM fusion?

Okay, got fusion installed, and using the programs that I like that Mac
doesn't support just yet,.  That's okay, get the best of both worlds so to
speak.  Anyways, I can't get to my nas storage from the windows side even
though I can  from the mac side.  It's connected, running just fine, but
when I go into my network from my virtual machine, it's not listed, my
router isn't even listed there, but I'm able to get on the internet.  Does
anyone have a solution for this one?  Thanks in advance!

Re: Problem ripping audiobooks from CD with iTunes

[Esther]

Hi Justin,

I suspect that when you hear the last second of your imported audiobook tracks 
cut off, that may be do to the cross-fade setting in iTunes playback.  Try 
bringing up your iTune preferences menu (Command+comma), navigate to Playback 
(Command+2, or you can navigate to the Playback button in the titlebar and 
press it with VO+Space), then navigate to "Crossfade Songs" and either uncheck 
the check box (VO+Space) or navigate to the slider, interact, and adjust the 
value way down (maximum is 12 seconds, and it may be set there as a default.)

The other thing you could do is follow ShamelessFanGirl's suggestion, and rip 
your audiobook CDs as a single, joined track -- either MP3 or AAC.  When the CD 
is inserted in your drive, you want to select all (Command-a) in the songs 
table and then choose the "join CD tracks" option in the "Advanced" menu on the 
iTunes menu bar before you start importing.  This option will be dimmed if you 
have not first selected the tracks, because there will be nothing to join. Jane 
has posted detailed instructions on list about ripping audiobooks this way with 
iTunes, and if you go to the secondary Mail Archive site for this list at:
http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/ 
and type in the search text box "from:Jane join tracks" (without the quotation 
marks, but with the colon after the "from" and before "Jane" with no space 
around the colon), then press "return", you should get her post.

Alternatively, if you are willing to change the audiobook to AAC format, for 
playing on the iPod Touch, you can get either Audiobook Binder (free) or 
Audiobook Builder ($5.95) from the Mac App Store, and automate the process of 
ripping your audiobook into a single (or a few) files, including adding chapter 
markers for navigating within the text.  Audiobook Builder gives you some more 
options with metadata and I think the user interface is more robust, but either 
one should work.  Both these software applications convert to .m4b file, 
though, so if it is important for you to maintain mp3 format (for compatibility 
with other devices), you might try joining by tracks.

If you have multiple mp3 audiobook files and want to play them, the easy way is 
to create a smart playlist.  If you want to read up more about that, try going 
to the Mail Archive site given above, and type in "smart playlists audiobooks" 
into the search text field and press return.  Then read the first few linked 
posts that come up in the list for an overview of how do to this.  The third or 
so link will be a somewhat lengthy post introducing smart playlists and 
describing how they work.  There have been a few changes (mostly, added 
features) since that post was written, but it covers all the key concepts.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: Problem ripping audiobooks from CD with iTunes

[Jane]

Hi eSther.  Lately I've been making the .m4B file, and then converting that to 
MP3 under the Advanced menu.  I still keep the .m4B, but I also have a copy 
that's an MP3 for use with my Booksense.  Very helpful with books that I've 
ripped as one or more long files.

Re: can't find nas storage on my network from VM fusion?

[M. Taylor]

Hello Kliphton,

I remember encountering this issue last year when I first began using Fusion.

The solution is in the Tools Menu of Fusion.  That is to say, you must activate 
the fusion Mac Window, which means you will be using VoiceOver to navigate the 
menu.

Somewhere in there you will see a setting that allows you to see the network 
attached storage.  It will make sense when you see the option.

After adjusting it accordingly, shut down the virtual machine and then restart 
it and you will be in business.

Mark

[Scott Howell]

I have not had any issues with any of the MacBook chargers I own or have used. 
If the charger is getting that hot you need to take that up with APple asap!!! 
Continuing to use or speculate on the problem might bring you more problems 
than you want. Hopefully it is under warranty.

Re: complex networking question (double nating)

[Scott Howell]

Hey Geoff,

Sorry I think there was some confusion in the communication. You are correct 
that DHCP and static IPs have nothing to do with the local LAN. I think what 
she was trying to say is that the modem effectively cannot be put into a true 
bridge mode. I think the problem is she could not explain what she meant by 
this and how having a static IP vs a DHCP address would relate to what I wanted 
to do. THe end result seems to be a way to part me with my money. :)
Thanks again for the info.

Re: a couple of trackpad commander questions

[Red.Falcon]

Hi Donna and all!
Well Donna I hope you've got your track pad problem solved!
But as far as reading the row info I've just set up a track pad shortcut for 
this!
I've left the modifier key set as the command key!
Although you can choose any of the others like Shift if you prefer!
Seeing that all the strokes are available for use with the command key I was 
spoilt for choice!
Anyway enough of that hahahaha
So I picked single finger right flick opened the commands menu, went to the 
tables heading, right arrowed and chose read row description then stopped 
interacting and went to the done button [and you guest it] vo spaced on it!
Now when on the table of mail which ever message I'm on I can press command and 
then one finger flick right and vo reads the whole row!
subject,from,date and others!
Anyway I hope that helps with the row thingy!
Colin

Re: Weird problem with Macbook Charger

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

As I stated in my original post:  I already tried that.  Just for reference, 
on the 13 inch white macbooks, you turn the power off, and press left 
control, left shift, and power all at the same time.  Then you power the 
system back up.  This helped a little, but not completely in my case, 
however in my friend's case who had nearly the same issue, it fixed 
everything.  Kind a weird if you ask me.

outlets. Eventually it just started charging. I've never noticed my 
adapter getting really hot until sometime just last week. I plugged it 
into another surge protector ... after having spilled water onto the 
older surger protector ... and for some reason the adapater I'm using now 
will cause the adapter to get real hot. My nephew also reports that his 
adapter gets really, really hot ... like you said ... almost enough to 
cause a significant burn to the skin. My nephew, however, has never 
experienced the issue with the adapter not charging his unit.

Hey guys.

We've got kind of a weird issue with my mid 2010 stocked white 13 inch 
Macbook's charger.  I wanted to see if any of you with any type of 
Macbook, be it white or Pro, be it mid 2010 or not, have had this isue, 
as it's somewhat concerning to me, especially, being I don't have the 
extended Apple Care, and my 90 day complementary support is over.  I'm 
sorry, but right now, I cannot afford $250 for the added waranty.  It's 
going to be a booger enough just to pay the $29 for Lion, although yes, 
that I am going to do no question.  Anyway, not to veer off track, 
basically, I've noticed something really weird.  The strange thing is, 
when Ben was down here visiting with me a few weeks ago, his macbook 
charger did almost the same exact thing.  Basicly, I'm noticing that my 
transformer box on the charger is getting really really warm.  I don't 
just mean a little warm either.  I mean, this sucker's cookin pretty 
good. It's not hot enough to burn me by any means, but it's enough to 
where when you touch it, you're going... parden the wording... "D***! 
that's hot!"  I don't smell any kind a wire burning or anything 
electrical that would be off base.  the magnetic end that goes in the 
computer is not warm in the least.  it's not cold, nor cool, it's just 
room temperature like normal. It seems to be grabbing really really well 
when I put it up to the charger port.  I got to give it quite a little 
tug to get it out.  I'll admit, I lost the plastic cap that went over 
the thing.  I'd not really think that would matter too much though.  I 
know quite a few people who threw their cap away, and nothing bad has 
ever happened.  Anyway, the other weird thing is is the bottom of my 
macbook several times while Ben was down here got really really warm. 
Ben, you probably could explain to everyone better since you felt it, I 
didn't.  Would you say it was pretty warm?  I don't think it was hot, 
was it?  I know it was more than normal according to what he said.  I 
know the fan was not being covered to the best of my knowledge.  OK, 
yes, my table cloth was a bit wrinkled up, but not bad. There is no even 
remote way crums could a gotten inside this thing, nor liquid, as it's 
not even close to anywhere I eat or drink.  Not even remotely.  The 
biggest concern is there have been a few times when after being fully 
charged, I'd leave it plugged in just so I'd not lose battery life, as I 
figured, why unplug it if I'm not needing to move around with it? 
Anyhow, sometimes the stupid thing when I have had it unplugged, charged 
or not, and plug the charger back into the macbook, will insist on not 
charging.  Often

Re: a couple of trackpad commander questions

[Mary Otten]

I Too got the Magic Trackpad not long after they came out, but I haven't used 
it as much as I thought I would. I like the num pad commander a lot, but I just 
haven't found the trackpad all that useful. I do prefer it for those situations 
when I need to do a real mouse click, as I seem always to move the physical 
mouse just a bit, but the pad makes this easier to do for me. I'd be curious 
how those of you who think the pad shines on the web use it there.

Hello Kliphton,

I remember encountering this issue last year when I first began using
Fusion.

The solution is in the Tools Menu of Fusion.  That is to say, you must
activate the fusion Mac Window, which means you will be using VoiceOver to
navigate the menu.

Somewhere in there you will see a setting that allows you to see the network
attached storage.  It will make sense when you see the option.

After adjusting it accordingly, shut down the virtual machine and then
restart it and you will be in business.

Mark

Track Panning in GarageBand

[Brandon Olivares]

Hi,

With Voiceover and in GarageBand, is there a way to change the panning of a 
track over time? I thought I heard there was a way through dragging some line 
with the mouse, but I wondered if it would be possible with Voiceover.

Thanks,
Brandon

Re: a couple of trackpad commander questions

[Red.Falcon]

Hi Mary!
As yet I'm not use to the track pad!
But one thing I can think of is...
Have you had a sighted person say [it's at the top left under something or 
other!]
And as far as I know the Apple way of doing things is that the screen looks the 
same for sighted people!
So the track pad shows you where they mean!
If you know what I mean!

OK.  I only am going to write in italian this one time on list seeing this list 
is for english speakers, but I figured I'd at least give it a try.  Based on 
his name, I'm assuming he's italian.  I'll write the english translation below, 
don't worry.  I just want to be absolutely sure he understands what we mean, as 
the english is slightly broken.  Absolutely not his falt.  Feel free to say on 
list.  We absolutely welcome you!  Again, I'm very very rusty, I'm  warning you 
all, and also, to all mods etc. know, I am *not* going to sit here and 
constantly translate all replies to him.  don't even ask me to. It's not gonna 
happen.  LOL!

I'm doing it this once, but past that...

but just to make sure he fully understands, and because I need the practice I'm 
gonna give this a shot.  I'm probably gonna mingle mang this to shreds, but 
here it goes...

Ciao.

Collin pensa ciò lei ha una tastiera di computer Ciò ha un bottone di FN.  Se 
lei non ha un bottone di FB, i suoi bottoni di vo saranno il primo due bottoni 
Sulla fila molto inferiore lasciata di bottoni.

Dio la benedice,

Chris.


Basically what I said was:

Hello,

Collin is thinking that you have a computer keyboard that has an FN key.  If 
you do not have an FN key, your vo keys are the two farthest left keys on the 
bottom row of the keyboard.

God bless you,

Chris.

  Hi mário! 
  Sure the vo keys are at the left of the space bar!
  From very left to right 
  fn, control, option and command

  The control and option keys are the vo [voiceover ] keys!
  Each end of the space bar are command keys and to right of the right command 
key is another option key!
  hth Colin
  If you press vo+k that will put you in keyboard help and you can press all 
kinds of key combinations to find out what or if they do!
  And when you've had enough of that just press escape!
  Until you press escape what ever keys you press will not do anything but tell 
you what they do, so you cannot hurt anything!
  After pressing escape you'll be back in normal use!
