deleting stuff in mail

2011-09-13 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
Is it possible to delete stuff in mail without interacting with the mail boxes?
I have only one email account but it still does not seem easy to delete read 
and deleted stuff.
Greetings, Anouk,

Hi Anouk,
Each time you have read a message, once back in the message table, hit 
backspace. To clean up trash folder, hit command shift backspace and answer the 
dialog.

Paul.

Re: simulating double mouselcick (doubleclick)

2011-09-13 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Anouk,
Route the mouse over to the vo cursor with command vo f5, check to see that the 
mouse is indeed on the spot you want with vo f5, then perform a physical double 
click by pressing the lower left corner of the track pad twice in quick 
succession.
Hth,
Paul.

Re: Tax Program

2011-09-13 Thread Scott Howell
I have used Taxact.com for several years. It takes a little getting used too, 
but it does get the job done. Of course when it automatically imports previous 
year tax information is a really big time saver. Of course E-filing was the 
reason I chose the service years ago.

Nice. Glad to hear that you got a work around going.

I am playing with removing the say part of that string and setting all that up

 All,
 
 Like Scott said, this was an exercise in learning Apple Script and to 
 facilitate the request of another list member. They did not want all the 
 information that the weather widget gave. All they wanted was the outside 
 temperature. If the weather widget works for you then by all means 
 continue to use it and ignore this thread. I could really give a crap if 
 you like or dislike the way myself or others wish to garner our 
 information.
 
 So with that said, I have found that there is a way to do this with curl. 
 Open your Apple Script editor and copy the following line into it. With 
 this code you do not have to install Xcode or Mac Ports. And in the 
 interest of full disclosure, I am also going to post the original Mac 
 Hints snippet in case anyone is interested in whether or not it's going to 
 be hotter today than yesterday. Oh and as before, make sure you substitute 
 33617 with your own zip  code.
 
 *** Code starts on next line ***
 do shell script "curl -s 
 http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=33617 | 
 grep -A 2 tempActual | textutil -convert txt -stdin -stdout -format html | 
 say -r 400"
 *** Code ends here ***
 
 Original Mac Hints code, with a pipe to say added by me.
 
 *** Code starts on next line. ***
 do shell script "curl -s

 awk '/Today is/ || /Tomorrow is/' | textutil -convert txt -stdin -stdout 
 -format html | say -r 400"
 *** Code ends here. ***
 
 
 If you have any problems or suggestions, please don;t hesitate to ask or 
 criticize. I personally find that this method is slower than the other 
 way, but it does not require any additional installs.
 
 Have fun.

Hi Anouk.
I got this to work, but I found sometimes I had to do it more than once. When 
you get the cursor where you want it, you have to do VO-shift-space twice 
quickly. I tried locking my VO keys because I had trouble doing this twice fast 
enough.

Gigi

Just a quick question about how you MBP / MBA / Bluetooth Keyboard

Re: solving visual captchas with mac and safari

2011-09-13 Thread Rachel magario
Hmm, I think it would be. That would bridge some security issues.
Does everyone have issue with the numbers that have backgrownd sound, such as 
the ones google uses?
I have to change  and request a different file, but I notice the same happens 
with sighted people, loads of time an image is to complicated and they have to 
request a different one to get it right. I guess that is the whole point, it is 
not suppose to be easy! :)
It would be interesting to do some research of the most effective sounds for us 
and also difficult enough for machines to crack.

Re: Laptop / Bluetooth vs. Standard Keyboard

2011-09-13 Thread Rachel magario
Keith,
I think it is just what you get used too. I never had a standard keyboard 
before and at work even the iMacs all have laptop bluetooth ones too.
The track pad does help a lot and make life so much better free of so much 
keyboard short cuts.

mail on lion

2011-09-13 Thread Rachel magario
Ok, I need help. My mail in lion is going crazy.
I can no longer tab to my mail boxes, to interact with messages and see just 
the collum of subject, or date, or from.
I can only see all at once who sent subject and time then when I navigate with 
arrows or tab I change to the message content and then back to the message 
list. This is all I get with either tabs or arrows. I can no longer find the 
search field, the notes, to do mail activity and so on.
Any body had the same issue and how did you solve it?
Thanks for any help.

This helped. Thanks again. The old driver stuff is gone and the new one will

Hi Rachel!
When in your list of tunes!
Select the ones to add to one of your play lists and open vo+shift+m and in 
there is a add to play list sub menu arrow into that and pick which play list 
you want and vo space on it and they'll be added!
Also you can make a new play list by selecting tracks and then use 
command+shift+N and then you name it and that will be another list for you!

Re: moving mail messages to new system

2011-09-13 Thread Jon Cohn
On Snow Leopard, the mail messages are stored in the "~/Library/Mail"  folder.  
This folder defintately has all of the e-mail messages and I am fairly certain 
that the Database that indexes the folders is also stored there.  If it is not, 
then it would be in the folder that "Application Data" folder in your Library 
folder.  Some programs use sequences like "com.apple.mail" as their names.

Re: is this a script guys?

2011-09-13 Thread Chris Blouch
Glad it worked. The unix shell of OSX is much more powerful than the DOS 
shell of yore. If you liked that you'll really like what you can do with 
unix. It can be a bit daunting because you're no longer in the hotel 
lobby with the comfy chairs but rather down in the basement with the 
plumbing and wires. You can do many things easily but also wreck still 
quickly. rm -r for remove all recursivly has wiped out whole file 
systems when run from the wrong location. man is your friend. You can 
start with man man to get the manual page about the manual page. I also 
like man -k which lets you search the man page for a keyword and not 
just a specific command.

Re: solving visual captchas with mac and safari

2011-09-13 Thread Chris Blouch
Yup, no reason to not let folks know there is an issue, just understand 
that nobody else seems to know how to fix it either. Friend of mine 
worked on the captcha used on AOL where they layer up two voices which 
isn't all that hard to decipher but I think would be difficult for 
something like Dragon to pick apart. There is a running conversation in 
the background while the 'good' letters are spoken over top. You can 
hear him as the lower male voice on some letters.

It all comes down to the purpose of captcha. It is a cognitive test by

prove you're not a bot. Today there are very few of those kinds of puzzles. 
Image and audio recognition are about the only two that haven't been cracked 
and it's turned into an arms race. Eventually the algorithms will be 
sophisticated enough that they will either mimic human behavior undetectably or 
the cognitive load to solve the captchas will increase to the point where real 
people can't solve them (already happening). Either scenario ends badly for 
those trying to protect the integrity of their content sites. In the meantime, 
just saying the current stuff doesn't work doesn't help because nobody has come 
up with a better solution. Anything that lowers the puzzle difficulty also 
makes it easier for the algorithms to solve.

BTW, I love the bit where it says the audio captcha is to test whether

Re: getting pictures from iPhone to mac

2011-09-13 Thread Chris Blouch
I think iPhoto should just come up when you plug your phone into your 
mac. After gemonjulating for a while it will eventually bring up an 
import screen with an Import All button. You can then pull an images you 
want from the Photos folder. There should be a file called iPhoto 
Library which you can do a contextual menu on (VO-shift-M) and choose 
show package contents. Inside there will be a number of folders 
including one called Masters. In there you will find all your photos 
organized into folders named by year. Within a year are folders for each 
month and within each month is a folder for each day that you imported 
something. Within a day folder will be some weird named folder like 
20110913-114743 which is really the date and time all run together. In 
this case it is 2011 09 13 (today) at 11:47 and 43 seconds AM which is 
the last time I imported images from my phone. Inside there will be all 
the JPEG and Movie files from your last import. those are just numbered 
files which increment each time a new image or movie is created.


Hope this helps.

  Some Snow Leopard folks actually deleted all the fields in the messages table 
and then re-added them in order they wanted.  Tables including this one have a 
column header that a sighted person can see, and that VO's trackpad commander 
can access if you go to the top of the column with a single finger.  When you 
are in the column headings you should be able to drag and drop them in the 
order you want. I would try drop before / drop after commands. VO- less and VO 
greater respectively.)


  Best wishes,


  Jonathan

Questionabout Super Doopper and external drives

2011-09-13 Thread Bill Holton
Hi.
I have a 2 tarabyte drive on its way, and I have a few questions about Mac
backups.
First, as I seem to recall, with Superdooper you can create a backup in a
format you can actually boot from, if the system becomes trashed?  Is this
correct?  Is SuperDooper the only package that allows this,or does time
Machine, also?
Second question:  How would I configure the drive so I can use it to back up
my Mac, but also swap it out to my PC to back it up?  Guessing I'll need to
create two partitions?  If so, how do I create the correct two using Tiger?
Thanks.
Bill

Re: adium

If you're just using AIM, the AOL client has a checkbox in 
Preferencecs-> Sounds to "Speak incoming messages using System Voice" 
which works pretty nice. Haven't tried it but I think it also hooks into 
Facebook and Google chat.

Re: VO reading message list?

2011-09-13 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi Tracie.
I had this happen to me. I almost went crazy with my e-mail. The new update 
seems VoiceOver behave better. 1@ cut my computer down, closing all the 
windows. Then I went into full screen. Sometimes I have found it shows me 
things I didn't find before. Now I have my mailbox list where I can go down it 
and use command-x to move files if I need to. I don't understand it, but 
sometimes full screen gets me things I trouble getting to before. 

Regards, 
Gigi

Never used image capture but is seems to do something similar. Might be 
a bit easier since it will import to a folder and not just into iPhoto 
unless you find some of the other iPhoto issues useful (and accessible).

Re: Questionabout Super Doopper and external drives

I believe so. I used it to migrate someone's old laptop to a new laptop. 
So we put the new laptop in target disk mode and then used CCC to copy 
everything from the old laptop via Firewire to the new one and then 
booted up the new one. Much easier that Migration Assistant which kept 
complaining about duplicate account names and such.

Re: Laptop / Bluetooth vs. Standard Keyboard

2011-09-13 Thread Scott Howell
Gee Keith I do just fine. Its called using those undiscovered skills in being 
flexible. Of course over all the years I have known you I have tried really 
hard to scrub those undiscovered skills from your rusting brainpan. So, I 
apparently have partially succeeded.
AIn't it nice to have friends?

So, on a serious note,, how do you use the VO keys on the right side in 
conjunction with the VO commands? FOr example, can you perform a VO-l using the 
VO keys on the right side of the keyboard? If so, I am impressed.
Maybe that is not what you intended. :)

Installing Windows with Fusion issue

2011-09-13 Thread Bill Holton
Hi.
According to the VM ware site, to install Windows 7 from an upgrade disk, a
clean install--I have a xp pro license, but you can't install xp on Lion--
you need to install windows without entering the key
   Then you slip in the disk, run setup and do an anytime upgrade to the
same windows version, and at that time you enter your license code.  I got
Windows installed under VM using an ISO disk, but I couldn't get Fusion to
read the iso, so I burned it onto a CD.  I can access the disk on my PC, all
the files are there, but when I run Fusion, call up windows and slip the
disk into the Superdrive it churns for awhile, then spits it out.  Windows
shows the drive, so I'm guessing Fusion is recognizing it.  Anyone have
suggestions?  Thanks.

Re: moving mail messages to new system

2011-09-13 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Johnathan,
It works. In the tilde slash library folder, you have a mail volder. Inside it 
is a v2 folder. In it, all of mail's stuff is stored. I just restored 
everything perfectly. The rules are in place, the accounts are all there. Only 
thing is, that you will have to enter all passwords for pop, imap and smtp 
servers again, because in a fresh lion install, they will not yet be in your 
key chain. Also, some general mail settings do not stick but that is no 
problem. Just go over the mail prefs and it's all set. Wonderful.
Thanks.
Paul.

 Ok, this is odd indeed.
 
 I am using Lion 7.1.
 
 when I go to amazon subscribe and save, I can't change or edit any of my 
 orders.   The links are there, but, when I attempt to click on change, 
 edit billing and or shipping info etc.  nothing happens.  However, if I 
 turn off VO, then, they work just fine.  So, I turn off VO, hit enter to 
 click on change, then, turn VO back on and it works fine.  The other links 
 on amazon, at least, as far as I know work just fine.
 I have tried, just enter, VO-spacebar and even vo-shift-spacebar.
 
 Any ideas on this weird behavior.  This happens on both Safari and the 
 latest build of Webkit.
 
 Any ideas or suggestions would be most helpful, thanks.

Time machine does not make a bootable backup, although you can boot off of the
