Re: Calibre

[Daniel Montalvo]

You can use the command line if you wish to,but there is a service
that Jonathan Chacon wrote. That services lets you convert any txt
document into epub format (I don't remember if it also handles pdf
format). If you go to the archive you may find one of his post with
the link to download the service.

You can also use Pages to convert documents into Epub, being this
option most complete and customizable. You are able to give the
document a particula structure using the tittles and headings in
pages, and then you can export those marks to the epub file which
makes reading easier.

Best wishes.

Is my Mac able to run Lion?

[Jes Smith]

Hi all,
This is what I pulled up from my system profiler. I'm not sure if my Mac 
hardware is capable of running lion. I hope it is, because I already paid for 
it. I will be disappointed if I have to spend another 1200 bucks on a MacBook 
Pro. Anyway, if anyone could look at the hardware specs below and let me know 
something I'd appreciate it.

Hardware Overview:

  Model Name:   MacBook
  Model Identifier: MacBook5,2
  Processor Name:   Intel Core 2 Duo
  Processor Speed:  2.13 GHz
  Number Of Processors: 1
  Total Number Of Cores:2
  L2 Cache: 3 MB
  Memory:   2 GB
  Bus Speed:1.07 GHz
  Boot ROM Version: MB52.0088.B05
  SMC Version (system): 1.38f5

Re: question about viewing calendars in Ical

[Brett C.]

Hi Laura,

Navigate to the tool bar, the first button will be calendars. Press that button 
a popup will appear with a list of your calendars. You can uncheck the 
calendars you don't wish to view, and then hit escape to close the popup. 
Repeat the process to make the calendar appear again.

Mike,

I wish to do a clean install and made a DVD.

If you could write some instructions on how to do it, I will appreciate that.  
If needs be, write to me off list.

Re: very weird and inconsistant behavior with conversations

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

If you are in threaded view you do not need to do VO J.

Just find the message you wish to read and press tab and if that does not work, 
press VO left or right arrow to get Voice Over to read automatically.

You might not like my next statement, but Mark's method is the best so far as 
it works without any fuss and minimal key presses.  I know some will not like 
what I say sorry.

Ugh, I did the latest update for sl and safari and things aren't right. I've 
gone through all my settings and they are still set up like I had them, but 
it's not doing what it should.

For example, now when I am on the web and press tab to go through the links it 
doesn't do it any longer. Can anyone help?

for those using garage band and wanting a way to use the score editor

[Yuma Decaux]

Here's a link to an interesting app

http://manytricks.com/keymo/

It basically allows you to control and move the mouse.

Now this is not an end to itself as there are tweakings and probably some 
sighted assistance necessary at in the first phase , but provided that one is 
good enough at figuring a matrix or at least screen boundaries for various 
elements, this might do the trick for score editing.


I've been using a terminal command called click where flags like -x and -y 
allow you to move the mouse to a specific location on the screen and make a 
click, I use it to load presets on vst and au plugins which don't have default 
presets available in the garage band pull down menu. It basically allows me to 
load presets on inaccessible plugins. I could have ventured further but 
figuring all the locations of the plugin and compiling all the scripts for each 
location, then binding them to track pad / numpad/key commander is a chore i 
just don't have time to indulge in.

However, This little app can take it a step further by specifying divisions on 
the screen for a given plugin or a score table.

The procedure seems simpler on a score table as all notes are equally 
distanced. Plugins with various elements on the screen might be trickier, but 
if there's a way to place the mouse to a given location via the click terminal 
command, which itself can be assigned to a shortcut script with either trackpad 
numpad or key commander, and the script tells you where you are with the say 
applescript command, there can be quite some possibilities in garage band.

Take the note editor. If you know where channel 1's first note is, then you ask 
someone to locate the second note and take the x y coordinates, just substract 
the second pos to the first one, and you got division distances that can be set 
in keymo the application i'm talking about. Add to it an applescript to say 
left or right, or don't but each time you do step one division, you can click 
the mouse with keymo, and score sheets are an on/off affair, so it's absolute 2 
states easy to configure afterwards in the editor for pan, attack, etc.

This might really enhance our garage band experience until they release a 
version with accessible score sheets.

On second notice, this technique can also be used for dragging samples from 
finder to the garage band virtual keyboard for mapping samples with lion's new 
drag and drop feature..

If anyone's interested in figuring it out with me, let me know off list

Thanks, and best 

Yuma

Re: adding more than one recipient?

Hi, Kliph,

There are several ways to do this. Here's a simple way that I do it.

If you're not using bcc, you can add the first name, then use 
command-right-arrow to get to the end of that contact, and type in another. 
Repeat as necessary. You can also do the same in the bcc field.

HTH,
Teresa

sending private reply; is it still posible

[Ray Foret Jr]

Hi,

Just found that I cannot highlight someone's e-mail address and thus send a 
private reply under Lion.  At least, not using the method we all used to use.  
Is there some other way I might be overlooking?


Sincerely,
The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

If you know the name of the person, start typing or choose from the address 
book, by finding it, find the mame, stop interacting, find their E-mail address 
and press enter.

Re: ugh, darn latest update for safari and sl

[Mary Otten]

I found that the option in the safari preferences to highlight items on the web 
page using the tab key had become unchecked. I checked it, and that helped for 
a while. But I did eventually start having the problem again, while the option 
was still checked. I have installed the latest build of webkit and am using 
that instead of Safari. It greatly reduced the  "busy" problem and the tabbing 
problem has also almost gone away. There is one site that still seems to have 
problems, but even it is not consistent. So I'd say try webkit and see if that 
makes things better.

Re: Is my Mac able to run Lion?

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

Yes, your system meets the minimum requirements.  But I'm curious, since you 
already bought it an all, why didn't you just install it and saw what happened? 
 At worse, the OS would have been sluggish and you could have just went back to 
SL.

IDK.  Just saying. :)

Re: sending private reply; is it still posible

[Ray Foret Jr]

I did exactly that.  While focused on a message, (I was interacting with the 
text area), I stopped interacting with the text and then VO+up arrow to the 
header group.  I interacted with the header group and found the from field.  I 
found, however, that I could not highlight the sender and that meant that 
VO+shift+m did not come up at all.  Again, I did interact with the header group 
and with the header information itself.  I have my headers showing as normal in 
the view tab off the prefs window.

Is that what you were doing?  Cause it doesn't work for me.

The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

Re: sending private reply; is it still posible

[Chris Westbrook]

I think after you interact with the header group you must interact again, or at 
least I have to.  Then you can vo+right or left arrow between the different 
header fields, or just use the arrow keys if quick nab is on.

Re: [Bulk] Re: sending private reply; is it still posible

[Ray Foret Jr]

Yep, found solution.  Turns out I was attempting to highlight the from field 
using command+right arrow as I had done in SL.  This time, I used VO+shift+a.  
That way worked.

A couple of questions about iTunes and signatures

[Matt Dierckens]

Hey all. I have a question about podcasts and ITunes. How would I download old 
episodes and sync them to my IPhone?
Also, for some reason, voice over reads my signature twice. Then when I go into 
the signatures window, it appears once. Very strange.

Re: A couple of questions about iTunes and signatures

[Matthew Campbell]

Hey Matt.
I'm not sure about mail but I can help you with iTunes.
The number of podcasts that you are seeing is most likely because of how many 
are on the feed at that time. SOme podcasters only have so many while others 
have every last one. Also, make sure you are not using grid view because you 
can more easily expand and collapse the different podcasts.
Hope this helps.

Changing Internet Providers

[Christopher Peppel]

Hi there,

I am changing Internet providers and wondered if I needed to delete mailboxes 
such as the Mac Cast and Lioncourt.com then put them back when I have the new 
provider?

Thanks for any answers.

Re: Mac mini

[Chris Blouch]

I have a DVI to VGA  and then a VGA to NTSC converter on my Mini and it 
always thinks there is a screen hooked up. Works well and it connects to 
our old TV so the kids can watch DVDs on it or whatever. Since NTSC 
doesn't provide a way to detect if you're hooked up the Mac always 
thinks it is. The mini is the hub of the home theatre setup since it 
outputs fiber optic audio which goes into an AV receiver. Added an Apple 
wireless keyboard/mouse for couch use.

just have to have the screen plugged in. However, if anyone finds a

Could it be that I am using a generic display port to VGA and not apples?

Re: Mac mini

[John Panarese]

Hi Chris,
   With this set up of adaptors, can you use the Mini without actually 
connecting a monitor for daily, computer use.  I am seriously considering 
buying a new Mini, and I'd like to be able to do so with the minimum of extras 
beyond a keyboard and Magic Trackpad.

Take Care

Re: Finder and Dashboard driving me crazy

[Paul Erkens]

Hi Carlene,
Well, spaces and finder has several hotkeys, and you can change all of them via 
system preferences, and then keyboard. In the shortcuts tab, select the correct 
category and in the other list box you will then have all shortcuts related to 
spaces. Besides, it might be that you are accidentally touching the trackpad. A 
3 finger swipe right or left will change from one space to the next or previous.

Paul.

A few questions before buying my first Mac

[Bill Holton]

Hi.
I am getting ready to buy my first Mac, a  Mini, and I have a few questions.
First, my gift card is with Amazon, and they only have two minis in stock.
The first is a minimum configuration with 2 gig and i5 chipset.  The second
has 4 gig, 2 500 gig drives  and an i7 chipset, but it is their server
edition.  Can I assume the Server OS is pretty much the same as the regular
Lion only with the extra features?  Voiceover will run the same?  

Second, I want to upgrade to a full 8 gig, and the products Amazon links to
are all "notebook" memory upgrades.  Is this the one I would use?  They
offer Corsair and Kingston.  Guessing the brand really doesn't matter on
this?

And though they mention no mouse or keyboard they don't say anything about
sound.  Is there a built-in speaker set with the mini?  If not what sort of
audio connection and does anyone have a recommendation as to what sound
accessories work best with the mini?
Thanks.

Re: Is my Mac able to run Lion?

[Jes Smith]

Recardo,
I was trying to install it. Something is up, the app doesn't launch for some 
reason. It acts like it's downloading, but nothing happens. Guess I'll see if 
an Apple store around here has a dvd of Lion anywhere, as my AT&T connection  
isn't playing well with Apple's App store.

Recommendations for app

[Jenny Wood]

Good day all!  I writing to find out if any of you might happen to have any 
recommendations for an app that wold allow me to move files between my mac and 
windows machines.  We have one windows machine that we are using specifically 
for storage and as our media warehouse, if you will.  We keep all of our music 
and movies on the windows machine and stream them to the apple TV and other 
devices in the house.  However, when we use one of the macs to do the ripping, 
which is our preferred mode, it seems to be a pain in the rear to get our files 
from one platform to another.  The easiest way for us would be to either put 
the copied files onto an external drive and connect it up to the desired 
computer, or grab the files directly over our network connection.  I am 
currently running Lion on all mac machines and windows 7 on the other machine.  
This is still somewhat of a learning experience for me in some respects. :-)

Re: Recommendations for app

[erik burggraaf]

I just use command K.  It works nicely since I'm using static IP's.

So, I go to finder.
Hit Command K.
Type smb://192.168.1.# and hit enter.
Now I'm connected although depending on how your shares are set up you may need 
to enter a username and password.
Now anything on my mac can use the shares on my windows machine.

Best,

Re: mac freezing

[Anne Robertson]

Hello James,

This is probably just the same old weird untraceable bug in VoiceOver that's 
been around for a long time. I press Cmd-F5 four times and VoiceOver comes back.

If your Mac really is freezing, then this isn't happening to me.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: mac freezing

Uh, Anne and James too, are you running Lion or SL?  I ask because ever since I 
installed Lion, I have yet to experience Voice Over going out on me.  Now, RS 
games audio has gone out on me; but, Voice Over, not even once at all so far.

Don't pay too much attention to the "selection deleted" message, VO also says 
this when you select a valid address from your Address book.

André

Re: USB modem

[Esther]

Hi Priscilla,

I don't know about "portable USB modems", but you need a USB modem that 
supports 64-bit operation.  The Zoom 3095 USB Mini External Modem - USB - 1 x 
RJ-11 Phone Line - 56 Kbps appears to be one of these.  Here's the Amazon link 
(about $46):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001FCIOSW/
Please note that I have not tried any of these devices myself.  I only 
researched this as a follow-up to a discussion question on the Mac-Access list, 
as a replacement to the older 32-bit USB modems that Apple used to make, and 
that are now discontinued.  And as far as I know, you just plug it into a USB 
port and it works.  At least, the earlier model Zoom modems discussed in the 
macintouch.com reader reports sites as being reliable and preferred Mac 
alternatives to the old 32-bit Apple USB modems were just plug and play.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: adding more than one recipient?

[Red.Falcon]

Hi there!
I'll just like to add!
Open address book with command+option+a then arrow to the name table and 
interact scroll down through your list and when you get to a name you wish to 
send to just press return!
Keep going through your list until you get to the last name you want!
Do not press the return on the last name!
Now stop interacting and left arrow and you'll have the options to either put 
them in BCC, CC or the [to] field!
So which ever you pick then just vo space on it and close the address book 
command+w and you'll be on the message header to write subject and so on!
It takes me longer to type this than to do! :]
Anyway just another version!

Re: Mac mini

[Chris Blouch]

Right, as far as the Mini knows it is hooked up to a monitor, which 
happes to be the VGA to NTSC adapter. I think I paid about $30 for the 
VGA to NTSC box. Yup, it was this one:


http://sewelldirect.com/pc-to-tv.asp

It does take a USB port for power but my Mini has four so that was fine. 
I also already had an HDMI or displayport to VGA adapter from somewhere 
or other. I think they only ship with HDMI to DVI these days.


The end result is the mini stops its fruitless search for a monitor that 
isn't there so it can move on to more important things like doing your work.

Re: mac freezing

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Yes, I just do the same as Anne expressed, pressing cmd-f5, wait a second, do 
it again and after repeating this 4 or 5 times, VO begins speaking again.  Your 
computer is not freezing at all.  Just for interest sake, in your Energy Saver 
Preferences in System Prefs, check the box that tells your Mac to restart if it 
freezes.  You'll know if it has frozen because it will restart itself.

Later…

Re: A few questions before buying my first Mac

[Chris Blouch]

While I don't know as much about the current configs, I do know that 
they have a built-in speaker. Not sure there has ever been a Mac that 
didn't have some kind of speaker in it. The audio output is a standard 
mini headphone jack so your typical PC speakers or whatever will work 
fine. It is actually a combo plug which will also accept a mini fiber 
optic cable which you can run to an external AV receiver to decode 
multi-channel sound such as from a commercial DVD. Works quite well but 
I had to hunt online for that fiber optic cable as none of the usual 
places (BestBuy, Radio Shack etc) knew what I was talking about. Good 
thing I went that route as cables online are generally a lot cheaper. 
Here's one for for about $4 from Amazon:

Hi.
I am getting ready to buy my first Mac, a  Mini, and I have a few questions.
First, my gift card is with Amazon, and they only have two minis in stock.
The first is a minimum configuration with 2 gig and i5 chipset.  The second
has 4 gig, 2 500 gig drives  and an i7 chipset, but it is their server
edition.  Can I assume the Server OS is pretty much the same as the regular
Lion only with the extra features?  Voiceover will run the same?

Second, I want to upgrade to a full 8 gig, and the products Amazon links to
are all "notebook" memory upgrades.  Is this the one I would use?  They
offer Corsair and Kingston.  Guessing the brand really doesn't matter on
this?

And though they mention no mouse or keyboard they don't say anything about
sound.  Is there a built-in speaker set with the mini?  If not what sort of
audio connection and does anyone have a recommendation as to what sound
accessories work best with the mini?
Thanks.

Re: Using VoiceOver to create a Lion installation drive

[Esther]

Hi Jes,

I was able to download Robert's podcast.  But his link is a shortened link that 
takes you to the web page in which the file is embedded.  I'll give you a 
shortened link to the actual MP3 file location:
http://bit.ly/qVHjjd
(Note, I don't like posting this way in general, because shortened links can 
take you to spam or false web sites -- you have to trust that the poster is not 
diverting you -- but the full download link address is so long that it will 
almost certainly wrap and break in the mailer).

If you can't download the track directly (because it starts playing in Safari), 
press Command+L (to move to the address bar location), followed by 
Option+Return (to download the file currently playing).

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Thank you very much!  Well, I have verified the IP address of my windows

Gmail and mail not pl;aying nicely with eather other

[matthew Dyer]

Hi all,

I am having a problem with mail and gmail.  I have filters set up in gmail with 
lables for mailing lists such as this for instence.  Now I tend to find that 
when opening mail and everything opens  it is taking mail so long to suync 
everything and even at some times loosing mail.  I am seeing messages from as 
far back as 2 years ago and nothing from the current day or even  the day 
before.  Any one else here having this problem?  I did not just start having 
this problem until two days ago when I deleted folders off the local porsion of 
the machine.  I also have tried deleting thd readding it with no luck.  I would 
start out with as much as 30 or messages then I would leave it and come back 
and have maybe 2 or 3 and I did not even tuch.  Can I safely say that gmail is 
having problems?  Or is there a way around this with loosing all of the filters 
I have created?  I have about 22 lables and filters.

Thanks again for everyones help.

Re: Recommendations for app

When connecting to Windows file shares I usually have to put into the

smb://server_ip_address/share_name

Then it asks for the username and password and I'm in.

Re: Mac mini

[Chris Blouch]

Unless somethings changed in the latest models. They seem to poll 
endlessly for a monitor until one is found, turning the machine to 
sludge in the process. The old trick was to buy a DVI to NTSC cable but 
Apple doesn't make them anymore or they stopped fooling the machine. In 
any case, the convoluted rats nest of connectors I described does work 
but it might not be a whole lot cheaper than a real monitor, although it 
will be more portable. You can get a cheapie display for about $80 from 
newegg and probably something for a few bucks at a thrift store (old 
tube type). If you're good with electronics or know someone who is you 
can solder up a "VGA terminator" which makes the 'sense pins' read like 
there really is a monitor there by bridging a few of them with 
resistors. They used to sell these things online but I guess nobody 
needs them much anymore so I couldn't turn up any suppliers.

Right, as far as the Mini knows it is hooked up to a monitor, which
happes to be the VGA to NTSC adapter. I think I paid about $30 for the
VGA to NTSC box. Yup, it was this one:

http://sewelldirect.com/pc-to-tv.asp

It does take a USB port for power but my Mini has four so that was fine.
I also already had an HDMI or displayport to VGA adapter from somewhere
or other. I think they only ship with HDMI to DVI these days.

The end result is the mini stops its fruitless search for a monitor that
isn't there so it can move on to more important things like doing your work.

Re: sluggishness in booting

[Paul Erkens]

Hi Chris,
For some reason, this article stops with the words: if Lion is about anything, 
it is about the. And that was it, if I remember well. Is this a problem on the 
site, or in my brain? I'm interested to read it, so maybe I should turn to the 
safari reader? Any ideas?

Thanks.
Paul.

Re: A few questions before buying my first Mac

[Esther]

Hi Bill,

Issues having to do with getting the server version of the Mac Mini with Lion 
Server have been getting discussed on at the mac-access list.  If there are 
only two minis in stock at Amazon, I now understand why Jim Noseworthy opted 
for that, although someone else on list did explain that he wanted it for the 
i7 chipset and processors.

Bill, if you get the Mac Mini with Server you may have to run and configure the 
Server OS software, certainly this will be the case if it ships with Snow 
Leopard instead of Lion, and that's more difficult than regular OS X Lion.  I 
haven't been following the discussion that closely, but I do know that Jim's 
made some progress.  Just understand that there are extra issues.  You have to 
buy both the regular Lion Upgrade and the Lion server upgrade if it's got the 
Snow Leopard server OS installed.  I don't know whether they're shipping with 
Lion installed on the models being sold out of Amazon (instead of Apple).

Maybe someone else who has a Mac Mini can give you more information on this.

Cheers,

Esther

Re: sluggishness in booting

[Chris Blouch]

Dunno. Worked for me. Have to do a couple heading jumps to get to the 
article which starts "Upgrading to Lion Means Embracing the iPad". There 
are also a few link boxes stuck in the middle to wade through but 
otherwise it's all there. This is on Snow Leopard, not Lion. I did a lot 
of VO-Right arrows to get past paragraph breaks and links. So iPad was 
one a link and that seems to be where you got stuck. Just VO-right past 
it and read on.

Reading with Safari Reader [was Re: sluggishness in booting]

[Esther]

Hi Paul,

Try using Safari Reader (Command-Shift-R) to read the NY Times article.  (For 
some reason, you're stopping at the linked word "iPad".  At least, I assume 
your reading stopped at the link, and not because you need to register to read 
the site).

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: Using VoiceOver to create a Lion installation drive

[Esther]

Hi Paul,

Option-Return is just a variation of the regular Mac OS X shortcut for 
"Option-Click" to force downloading on a highlighted link.  I'll point you to 
two locations to read more about finding out more about Safari Shortcuts.  One 
is a link to my archived post of two years ago, where I answered Mike Busboom, 
who asked the same question that you asked about Option-Return:
• "TIP: How to use Help and Google Searching to learn about your Mac [was Re: 
Latest article on using the Mac from the Braille Monitor]"
http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg11063.html

Note that in that article, if you point your browser to:
file:///Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Shortcuts.html
in order to view the internal list of shortcuts within your own Safari 
application bundle, that you may have to copy the link (Command-C), then use 
Command-L and paste the link (Command-V) into your Safari address bar, then 
press Return.

A second good source is the web page list of Safari shortcuts that Doug Lawlor 
has been working on:
http://www.douglawlor.com/safari-keyboard-reference

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: Recommendations for app

Awesome, thank you both for your help!  I am now successfully connecting to the

figure out what I am doing wrong when it comes to copying my movie over. LOL  I 
have tried both copy and paste, as well as dragging and dropping.  Copying and 
pasting does nothing, and when I drag and drop, I get the error that the marked 
item is no longer in view.  I understand that it's not in view, but am not sure 
how to keep both windows in view.  Getting closer though, and that's great! :-)

RE: Changing Internet Providers

[M. Taylor]

Chris,

You Wrote:
"I am changing Internet providers and wondered if I needed to delete
mailboxes such as the Mac Cast and Lioncourt.com then put them back when I
have the new provider?"

Chris, 
All things being equal, there is no need to remove or change your general
configuration for your mail client just because you are changing Internet
service providers.  

There are some definite exceptions to this, however; for example, were you
to change from a cable provider to a DSL or, in some cases, from one
satellite provider to another.  More often than not, the change would
require a modification of your SMTP settings, only.  

I suggest that:

1.
Before you change providers, go to the web and review the recommended
internet/mail client settings for the new provider.  Write these down
somewhere and have them close at hand should any modifications be necessary.

2.
Immediately after the new provider goes live on your system, attempt to send
and receive messages from all your email accounts.  

Good Luck,

Mark

Re: very weird and inconsistant behavior with conversations

Not sure why right arrow is no longer expanding the conversation, but you might 
try pressing control option backslash and see if that works.

H!  Yes, your right, I am not sure why that would have happened on an

Well, sometimes, we overlook the obvious like I just did!

Re: Using VoiceOver to create a Lion installation drive

[Scott Howell]

Robert,

I've tried clicking on the "play" and "Download" links, but for some reason 
Safari will not play or download the file. I'm wondering if others have seen 
this issue? The view count continues to increase so, now it is up to 58 views. 
:)

Thanks,

Re: Using VoiceOver to create a Lion installation drive

[Esther]

Hi Earle,

On the web page of Robert's link, I had to interact with the "Audio element controller toolbar" and 
then after navigating to the "play" button bring up the context menu with VO-Shift-M. Choosing 
"Download Audio" here worked.  Trying to use the download link didn't work for me  I also tried to 
View the web source page and did a search for the linked mp3 file.  I have my Safari configured with the 
Click to Flash extension (and I haven't upgraded to Safari 5.1 yet), if that makes a difference.  I did cc a 
response to Robert earlier that the download link didn't seem to be working.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Hi Jes,

I was able to download Robert's podcast. But his link is a shortened link that

If you can't download the track directly (because it starts playing in Safari), 
press Command+L (to move to the address bar location), followed by 
Option+Return (to download the file currently playing).

Re: Using VoiceOver to create a Lion installation drive

[Esther]

Hi Earle,

I'm not sure that I fully answered your question, since you asked about how I got the link to the embedded 
mp3 file on Robert's web site, while I described the steps that I took to download the file.  For every file 
that you download, if you do a Command-I to "Get Info"on that file in Finder, you can navigate past 
"More Info" to the duration, etc. and then to a field that is "Where from:" The next item 
gives the source URL of the downloaded file.  So, I used VO-Shift-C to copy the source URL of the downloaded 
file, and because this was quite long, I went to the bitly web site to paste the address in and create a 
short link. The full URL of the mp3 file was:


So, assuming you can download a file, you can also check what the source URL for that file is.  That feature 
has been present for a few versions of Safari. Of course, the other way that you can try to find the source 
of embedded mp3 file is to use the "View Source" option (Command-Option-U) for a web page.  Then 
you can search near instances of "link" and "mp3".  But that's really messy.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther


Hi Earle,

On the web page of Robert's link, I had to interact with the "Audio element controller toolbar" and 
then after navigating to the "play" button bring up the context menu with VO-Shift-M. Choosing 
"Download Audio" here worked.  Trying to use the download link didn't work for me.  I also tried to 
View the web source page and did a search for the linked mp3 file.  I have my Safari configured with the 
Click to Flash extension (and I haven't upgraded to Safari 5.1 yet), if that makes a difference.  I did cc a 
response to Robert earlier that the download link didn't seem to be working.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Thanks Esther. I found your post helpful as well. Just out of curiosity how did 
you get the link to the embedded mp3 file?

Hi Jes,

I was able to download Robert's podcast. But his link is a shortened link that 
takes you to the web page in which the file is embedded. I'll give you a 
shortened link to the actual MP3 file location:
http://bit.ly/qVHjjd
(Note, I don't like posting this way in general, because shortened links can 
take you to spam or false web sites -- you have to trust that the poster is not 
diverting you -- but the full download link address is so long that it will 
almost certainly wrap and break in the mailer).

If you can't download the track directly (because it starts playing in Safari), 
press Command+L (to move to the address bar location), followed by 
Option+Return (to download the file currently playing)

HTH. Cheers,

Esther

In Case Your Mac Is Lost, How To Add Contact Information To The OS X Lion Login And Lock Screens

[M. Taylor]

The following was just posted to the Candle Shore BLOG:

Hello Everyone,  

The following instructions from SimpleHelp describes how to add your contact
information to the OS X Lion login and lock Screens in case someone finds
your lost Macintosh.  

Mark

HOW TO ADD CONTACT INFO TO THE OS X LOGIN AND LOCK SCREENS 

1.
Select the "Apple Button" from the Menu Bar. Select System Preferences. from
the list. 
 
2.
In the Personal section of the System Preferences, locate Security & Privacy
and click it.

3.
Select the General tab, and then, if necessary, click the "Lock" icon in the
bottom-left corner of the window so that you can make changes.

4.
>From here you'll have a number of options, and will have to decide which
ones you want to enable and which you don't need/want. 

First things first - place a check in the box labeled Show a message when
the screen is locked:. Then enter the information you want displayed in the
space provided. 
Now you may want to enable the Disable automatic login feature. If you do,
that means you'll need to enter your password each time your Mac starts -
and of course your custom message will also be displayed. This way if
someone finds your Mac, they won't be able to access your files (as easily.)
and your contact info will be displayed. 

You may also want to enable the Require password after sleep or screen saver
beings. You'll need to enter your password after your screen saver kicks in
(though you can specify the time) - but again, your contact info will be
displayed on the screen. 

Once you've made all the changes that best suit your needs, just close out
of the System Preferences. 

Now when your Mac starts up (and other scenarios depending on the options
you selected) - your contact information (or whatever message you entered)
will be displayed.

Re: Getting to the top or bottom of a list

[Doug Lawlor]

Hi Paul,
You must interact with the messages column then interact with the messages 
table. When you interact with the messages column you see two items, Sort by 
date and messages. Just interact with the messages table then vo+shift+home 
will take you to the top and vo+shift+end will take you to the bottom.

arrow to get to bottom.

Re: Getting to the top or bottom of a list

Or just do like I did, and create a commander key for these actions.  It works 
for the going to top, but the going to bottom one didn't work out.  So I still 
have to use the vo plus shift plus end.  Although I can say I never want to go 
to the bottom of the messages anyways.
