accessing notes

[Kirsten Edmondson]

Hi, 
I used to sync my notes from my IPhone onto my outlook. Since I have got a Mac, 
I have just accessed them through my phone, but I assume there must be a way of 
reading them on the Mac too? Where will I find my notes? Is it in the email 
program? Or in ITunes, or in somewhere totally separate? 
Anyone know? 
Thanks. 
Kirsten.

Audible and iTunes on the Mac

[Kirsten Edmondson]

Hi, since transferring from my windows machine to my Mac I have lost all my 
audible books. I can download them again no problem but I want them to go into 
my iTunes and thus onto my IPhone. I found a thing in apple menu under services 
which says something like add to iTunes as a spoken track. Do I find my 
downloaded book in the downloads section and then click on this in the menu in 
order to get it to the right place? Or is there something else, or something 
simpler I should do? 
Thanks. 
Kirsten.

partitioning my Mac

[Kirsten Edmondson]

Hi all, 
I need to use Windows for work and the easiest way to do this is to bootcamp or 
vmfusion my Mac. Is this easy to do? I heard that VM Fusion was better, how 
much does it cost? Can I just get it from Mac apps store? Does boot camping 
work just as well? (to save money, if that will work I'm happy to do that for 
now). 
What do I need to know or need to have handy before I start? 
Thanks. 
Kirsten.

Adding item to desktop or doc

Hi,

I recommend making an alias and placing that on the desktop.  You can do this 
by navigating to your dropbox folder and pressing command L.  Then select the 
alias and copy and move it to your desktop folder.

RE: partitioning my Mac

[M. Taylor]

Hello Kirsten,

First, welcome to the wonderful world of Apple.

With regard to Boot Camp versus VM Ware Fusion, it is a matter of needs
versus personal style.  

In effect, there is no "better" way; it is just a matter of how you wish to
work and how much time you wish to invest with regard to a learning curve.  

In my opinion, given that you are new to the Mac and given the learning
curve of using a windows-based screen reader in conjunction with VoiceOver,
I would recommend that you begin with Boot Camp.

Please keep in mind that unless you have enough vision to read a monitor of
some sort, you will need sighted assistance in order to get Boot Camp up and
running but, once done, you will be in proverbial business.

Conversely, all things being equal, you can setup VM Ware Fusion and,
consequently, Windows 7 completely independently of sighted assistance via
VM Ware Fusion.

As with all complex subjects, there is no proverbial silver bullet or, if
you prefer, "one-size-fits-all."

Mark

Re: Audible and iTunes on the Mac

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

No.

You add you audible books to iTunes the same way you would add music.  When you 
have download the books from your my library section on the audible site, they 
are placed in your downloads folder in your finder.  To get to the downloads 
folder quickly, you can press command  option L.  So, once the books are 
downloaded, go back to iTunes and press command O to bring up the file browser 
to add to iTunes.  Press command option L to go to the downloads folder, select 
the books, and press enter.  The books will now appear in the books table in 
iTunes.

Re: A couple of questions

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

Hi.

I can help with one of the questions re languages.

You say you found the language list.

Have you ever interacted with lists before?  namely, voice over keys and shift 
down arrow or up arrow.

I suggest you interact with the language list, find what you want, stop 
interacting and do command Q to close the vo utility folder if indeed you do it 
that way.

If you can't find the button which says allow re Face book then the app may be 
inaccessible with voice over but not sure as I do not use Face book.  If so, 
write to the company concerned and explain about Voice over and see if they can 
make it accessible or request for a refund of your money.

Kawal.

Re: partitioning my Mac

[Chris Blouch]

The nicest thing about going the VMWare route is that Windows just 
becomes another app that you launch when you need it and quit when you 
don't. You don't have to reboot your whole machine and give up the Mac 
to enter Windows for a while. This also provides a great migration tool. 
As you get more comfortable with the Mac way of doing things and find 
Mac equivalents to your Windows apps you'll be able to avoid using the 
Windows side more and more often. Some folks like the deep dive scorched 
earth way and just try to leave Windows by only using the Mac. That 
works for some but if you have to get work done on a deadline you might 
have to go back to Windows while you're still getting up to speed. Just 
don't let it become a habit.

Re: A couple of questions

[Rahul Bajaj]

Hey Kawal,

Thanks for your reply.
The thing is that the concept of interacting with things doesn't exist
in the case of the iPod Touch.
The method that you suggested does work on the Mac, but not on the iPod Touch.
Am I doing something incorrectly?

And the app which I downloaded for Facebook was in the list of the
most recommended apps on applevis.com
  So, I think that it does work with VoiceOver.

 Anyway, thanks a lot for your reply.

Cheers,
Rahul

Questions regarding apps

[Rahul Bajaj]

Hi all,

I hope you all are well.
I have a couple of questions.
Which app do you use on your IOS device for identifying colors?

Re: accessible youtube to mp3 converter

[Esther]

Hi Jürgen,

The option to "Record Video" should appear on the Dirpy screen just after the 
option for "Record Audio".  If you navigate with VO-Right arrow past the 
"Record" button for saving to an mp3 recording at the end of the "Record Audio" 
section,  just after the announcement of how much space the mp3 recording will 
take up, you'll reach the "Record Video" section.  Then I hear VoiceOver 
announce, "Available Video Qualities", followed by links for "Low - 240p.flv", 
"High - 360p.mp4", "High - 360p.flv", and "High - 480p.flv".  I just VO-Space 
on the link for "High - 360p.mp4" and this downloads automatically for me.  The 
same thing about not getting a notification that this has downloaded applies 
here -- just check your Safari downloads window or your Downloads folder for 
the file.  As I mentioned earlier, I just toggle the downloads window to be 
shown with Command-Option-L, then use Command-` to switch to this window and 
check that the file has downloaded.  You can QuickLook play the file by just 
pressing space bar on the file in Finder.  

If there are difficulties getting the video version, try turning off Safari 
extensions in the Safari preferences menu. (Command-comma to bring up 
preferences, then navigate to  Extensions and VO-Space.  There should be a 
switch to toggle extensions on and off on the Extensions pane, but you 
shouldn't have to do this.)

The only time I had an error message from the video formats was when I tried to 
check the dirpy page from my iPad when I was reading mail.  So I suspect it may 
have something to do with whether you are allowing Flash content to be viewed, 
or have Flash supported on your machine.  I haven't had problems with this page 
on my Mac, but I do have support for Flash content.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: accessible youtube to mp3 converter

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Esther,

thank you very much for the detailed discription. That was what I did as well 
but it didn't work. After your e-mail I tried again and ... ta ta .. now it 
works fine. Must be your magical impact. ;-)

Dirpy is really great and what I was looking for for a long time. To get a 
Youtube video in an iPod friendly format is fantastic.

Thanks again and
all the best

Re: How to transfer iTunes library to external hard drive?.

[Paul Henrichsen]

Hi. Mac Most now has a video on this. I believe he suggests just copying the 
iTunes media folder rather than the entire iTunes folder to the external drive.
You can then tell iTunes under the preferences menu where the new library will 
be located.
He has a five minute video which explains this at macmostnow.com

  Looktel Money Reader for Macintosh

   

  http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/looktel-money-reader/id477052345?ls=1&mt=12

   

  NantWorks and IPPLEX have released their revolutionary LookTel Money Reader, 
app for Mac computers on the Apple Mac App Store. The cutting-edge iPhone 
application that has helped thousands of users with visual impairments or 
blindness identify and count bills is now available for Mac OS computers.  By 
simply holding a bill in front of your Mac's camera, the application recognizes 
and speaks the denomination in real-time. LookTel Money Reader for Mac supports 
several international currencies including the Euro, British Pound, Canadian 
Dollar, and Australian Dollar. The app also features VoiceOver integration with 
support for several languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian, 
German, Polish, Russian, Korean, Finnish, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Japanese 
and more. If your Mac's language setting is set to any of the supported 
languages, LookTel Money Reader will speak the denomination of a recognized 
bill in that language, regardless of the currency type.

  Powered by LookTel's patented and proprietary object recognition technology, 
the application can seamlessly recognize any bill denomination without the need 
to take a photo as recognition happens in real-time.

  LookTel Money Reader for Mac is the first currency identifier available for 
Apple computers. The app is great for users to count and organize their bills 
in the comfort of their home, or users who do not own an iPhone.  LookTel Money 
Reader for Mac also gives users the option to use the app on their preferred 
platform.  

  LookTel Money Reader for iPhone launched in March to overwhelming praise from 
critics and users alike, earning a 5-star review average and a featured spot in 
the Apple App Store's "What's Hot" Category. LookTel has also been featured by 
the New York Times, The Huffington Post, Tech Crunch, Engadget, and several 
other major publications. LookTel has also been selected as the winner of the 
Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Chairman's Awards for Advancements in 
Accessibility. The award, which recognizes outstanding efforts to advance 
communications accessibility for people with disabilities, was awarded in 
Washington D.C. on October 28th 2011.

  Future LookTel apps will further leverage IPPLEX's groundbreaking augmented 
reality technology, allowing users to recognize other everyday objects such as 
packaged goods, CDs, medication bottles, and even landmarks. The technology 
also combines precision image recognition technology with text reader 
capabilities using full featured Optical Character Recognition (OCR). 

  The LookTel technology powering the application was developed by IPPLEX under 
sponsorship from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and was awarded two 
research grants from the National Eye Institute (NEI) and the National 
Institute of Aging (NIA).

Looktel Money Reader for Macintosh

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/looktel-money-reader/id477052345?ls=1

&mt=12

NantWorks and IPPLEX have released their revolutionary
 LookTel Money Reader, app for Mac computers on the
Apple Mac App Store. The cutting-edge iPhone application that has helped
thousands of users with visual impairments or blindness identify and count
bills is now available for Mac OS computers.  By simply holding a bill in
front of your Mac's camera, the application recognizes and speaks the
denomination in real-time. LookTel Money Reader for Mac supports several
international currencies including the Euro, British Pound, Canadian Dollar,
and Australian Dollar. The app also features VoiceOver integration with
support for several languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian,
German, Polish, Russian, Korean, Finnish, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian,
Japanese and more. If your Mac's language setting is set to any of the
supported languages, LookTel Money Reader will speak the denomination of a
recognized bill in that language, regardless of the currency type.

Powered by LookTel's patented and proprietary object recognition technology,
the application can seamlessly recognize any bill denomination without the
need to take a photo as recognition happens in real-time.

LookTel Money Reader for Mac is the first currency identifier available for
Apple computers. The app is great for users to count and organize their
bills in the comfort of their home, or users who do not own an iPhone.
LookTel Money Reader for Mac also gives users the option to use the app on
their preferred platform.  

LookTel Money Reader for iPhone launched in March to overwhelming praise
from critics and users alike, earning a 5-star review average and a featured
spot in the Apple App Store's "What's Hot" Category. LookTel has also been
featured by the New York Times, The Huffington Post, T

Re: Looktel Money Reader For Macintosh (OSX)

[Jessica]

Ok, sounds fare enough, I'd think it would be along the same lines as trying to 
use a scanner, seeing as how you don't always know if you're placing a document 
face up, face down, or at what angle you even have it turned when you've put it 
on the scanner in the first place, so you just have to play around with it and 
hope for the best.
  I could be wrong though; I like the fact that they're coming out with these 
aps though, so we don't have to continue to have to invest loads of money into 
these secondary devices that we can only use for 1 perpose and have to lug all 
over the place in conjunction with our phone's if we want to live our every-day 
lives.

[Daniel Miller]

What does that have to do with using a money reader app? Once a visually
impaired person knows where the camera on the mac is, there's no issues at
all.

Answering this question is like explaining colors to a blind person who has
never seen them. Personally I think it will next to impossible for a totally
blind person to use the app under discussion here.  If someone figures that
out I would love to hear about that solution so I can share it with my
friends at Apple.

NantWorks and IPPLEX have released their revolutionary
 LookTel Money Reader, app for Mac computers on the
Apple Mac App Store. The cutting-edge iPhone application that has helped
thousands of users with visual impairments or blindness identify and count
bills is now available for Mac OS computers.  By simply holding a bill in
front of your Mac's camera, the application recognizes and speaks the
denomination in real-time. LookTel Money Reader for Mac supports several
international currencies including the Euro, British Pound, Canadian Dollar,
and Australian Dollar. The app also features VoiceOver integration with
support for several languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian,
German, Polish, Russian, Korean, Finnish, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian,
Japanese and more. If your Mac's language setting is set to any of the
supported languages, LookTel Money Reader will speak the denomination of a
recognized bill in that language, regardless of the currency type.

Powered by LookTel's patented and proprietary object recognition technology,
the application can seamlessly recognize any bill denomination without the
need to take a photo as

Good for you Jessica you get it. I can see and at the moment can't figure out a 
way to explain the location of the camera other then what has already been 
stated here. But if I do I will email you privately so the list is not clogged 
up.

Re: adding a printer

[Kevin Shaw]

Hi Kirsten,

Try plugging in the printer via USB. OS X should recognize the printer right 
away and will install/activate the necessary drivers.
Let me know if you have trouble off list.

Re: Looktel Money Reader For Macintosh (OSX)

[Ricardo Walker]

I couldn't disagree more.  Being the money is being scanned in real time, not a 
picture being processed, all one needs to do is hold the bill about 6 inches 
away from the screen and slowly move it around the screen until they get a 
result.  Pure common sense would tell me the camera would be near the top of 
the screen somewhere not far from center.  Since most use computers sitting 
directly in front of the monitor not off to one side or another.

So to sum it up,  hold the bill about 6 inches from the screen, near the top, 
and near the center.  Then slowly move the bill from left to right and back 
again until you get a result.  Keep in mind to be in good lighting.
