Do you have to send this presentation to someone, or will you deliver it in 
person? This makes all the difference to the way you arrange it.

If you have to send it to someone, choose a theme in keeping with the 
situation. You haven't explained the purpose of this presentation, but if it is 
an application for a job, choose a theme to suit the company profile.

In the Toolbar, you'll find a menu button labeled Masters. Click this and 
you'll find a selection of slide types, some of which include photos.

Don't put too much text into one slide, wordy presentations are boring.

Choose a slide type that provides for a picture and paste it in.

This is a very sketchy explanation. It took two full days of training to teach 
a totally blind person to put together a professional presentation that 
included quite a few pictures.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Assigning Braille command to toggle between 8 and 6 dot Braille possible

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Ioana,

I haven't found a way to do this, but I accidentally set my Braillino to 6-dot 
braille in its own software, and when connected to the Mac, it refused to 
produce 8-dot Braille, so that might be a solution for you.

Of course, contracted Braille is always 6-dot.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: utorrent and accessibility?

[Mr. L. Alexander]

hey eric. good to hear from you.

test and development engineers are able to implement both genuine apple and non 
apple systems as platform runners but from an official standpoint apple has put 
a stop to it in snow leopard.

what folk don't realise on the hackintosh point is there is  a speciality chip 
for security functions unlike a windows rig which is open end. this security 
chip is constantly being checked. so the hack isn't strong enough. not only 
that but since 10.6.6 that code was strengthened and as part of firmware 
updates, the security chip has extra protection measures as well as boot 
support from network master / sub systems.

Re: Home Sharing question

[Sean Murphy]

Hi,

some NAS devices have a iTunes Server. Qnap does have this. But I haven't used 
it yet. 


This is a interesting thread since it is what I wanted to do myself as well.  I 
want to access all the movies, audiobooks, music, etc via the NAS on the ITv. 
But if I cannot control what is seen by who. Then I might have to look at 
another solution.

 As an aside, an old MacMini would also make a nice media computer if you 
 want real storage and more than what an AppleTV will get you. The 
 headphone jack is actually a digital optical output which you can connect 
 to any typical surround-sound stereo to get the full 5.1 output from DVDs 
 and such.
 
 That said, I did try just duplicating the iTunes app to try and run two 
 instances, but no luck, they share the same preference files. What did 
 work was setting up another user on my Mac and having that second user 
 logged in running iTunes. That instance had it's own library and 
 preferences so I could share two libraries from the same machine with two 
 users logged in.

Re: utorrent and accessibility?

[Eric Oyen]

oh. *THAT* chip (the TPM). yeah, that is rather an inconvenience. The one major 
problem I see with Trusted Platform Modules is that if you want to install 
another OS, or reinstall the same one you currently have (due to a corruption 
of some kind), you are stuck. You can't change the keys once written (unless 
they changed the spec for it in the last 4 years). The TPM is also very closed 
source, which means that a company like MS (or Apple) can pretty much dictate 
what you can put on that device. I don't see this as a problem on iOS hardware, 
but I would like to have the right of choice on either a laptop or a desktop.

Now with MS trying to make UEFI a requirement to run windows 8 (and further 
require that only digitally signed OS'es can run on such hardware) means that 
people like me are going to be forced to either use their OS or stay with my 
current hardware. 

as for snow leopard, I may have to go to Lion sooner or later. The primary 
issue is going to be the cost of the hardware to put it on. right now, any 
recent vintage macbook or macbook pro is selling for near new price, even 
though it is refurbished or used equipment. this makes it insanely difficult 
for me to save enough in a reasonable amount of time to purchase. if I got with 
hardware older than 2009, I risk the issue of not having full support after OS 
10.8 (when it comes out). 

anyway, I think this thread is pretty much run its course on the list.

Re: converting m4a to wav or mp3

[Paul Erkens]

Iona,
I don't know of the differences between lite and amadeus pro, but I think I 
remember that the pro only has a batch converter and some other nifty things as 
a plus. You can drop a marker with amadeus in 2 ways, either at the playhead by 
hitting p during playback, or by pausing, then moving the insertion point to 
the playhead with command y, and then hitting m in pause to set the marker.
Hth,
Paul.
P.s.: amadeus pro is in the app store if you want it.

Amadeus for Marlaina

[Allison Manzino]

Hi Marlaina,

I love Amadeus and use it exclusively for all my recording needs. It's not as 
professional as Pro Tools, but it works well for my needs. I basically just 
record acoustic instruments and then track vocals, harmonies etc on top. There 
are others on this list that are much more expierenced than I at using this 
wonderful program, but I will give  you the commands I use the most.
To configure Amadeus to use markers, you have to go in the preferences and 
general by pressing command comma. Then do the following  in playback behavior 
set if selection is empty play from insertion point,
If selection is not empty play selection,
The most important one is this one which is display follows playback this box 
has to be unchecked. If you don't configure Amadeus like this, you will have 
great difficulty in dropping markers. I learned this from Eric Caron's podcast 
on Blind Cool tech. Here are the commands I use most frequently.

to drop a marker is P as in Paul
to jump between next and previous markers is option right and left arrow. Right 
arrow with option for next and left with option for prevous. You can also use 
option left arrow to go to the beginning of a sound. You can also interact with 
a track by pressing VO shift down arriow and explore the settings there like 
volume, name the track and paning. To delete a marker just hit delete once you 
have reached that marker. I know there are more commands that I'm not even 
thinking of right now. Oh, to record a track command N for new sound. Then 
press command R and you will see the recording dialog. You can also paste 
things you have recorded to different tracks, there is a paste special command 
which I believe is command option V as in Victor. If you would like more 
assistance, you are more than welcome to write me offlist. I can do a custom 
podcast for you. I hope this helps get you started. Have a great day.

Allison

Re: deleting content from iPod

[Sarai Bucciarelli]

Hi:
Remember, my iPod is set for manually sync, so I copy and paste files to the

won't delete from my iPod. Option delete doesn't work.

can't get braillesense plus to pare with mac

[erik burggraaf]

Hi all,  One of my clients has a new macbook pro OSX lion and an old 
braillesense plus hwv1.0 swv6.1.  I tried to get these to pare so I could show 
my client how to use the sense as a braille display and it isn't playing ball.

I've made sure bluetooth is on and msc mode is off.
Then I turned on termonal for screen readers in utilities.
Then I went to vo control panel, braille, displays, add bluetooth braille 
display.
The braillesense shows up in the table and I press enter on it.
I gave it the pin , and it said "failed to load driver".
There-after, it remembered the pin, so I'm assuming it got that much of it 
right.

I'm not sure where to go from here.  Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks,

Re: can't get braillesense plus to pare with mac

[Goodin, Donna]

Hi Eric,

I went through this a couple of months ago.  I finally contacted HIMS tech 
support.  Apparently, there is an issue with Lion seeing the BSP driver as the 
BrailleNote driver.  So, to the best of my knowledge, it is not possible to 
pair the BSP with a Mac at this time.  I wrote to Apple accessibility about 
this, but never heard back from them.
Cheers,
Donna

Thanks Donna,

This happened in the days of leopard and early snow leopard too as I recall.  I 
eventually got an old company demo unit to play nice before the company sold it 
and took away my toy, but dang, it's disappointing to see they've broken it 
again.

terminal: prompt

[Paul Erkens]

Dear list,

I am learning to change the terminal prompt. It now includes my machine name 
and my user name, which is what I want to get rid of. I think that the prompt 
is contained in an environment variable. I found that I can look at them by 
using env without parameters, and that works. However, prompt is not in here. 
Where do I need to look, to find the placeholders string that gives me my 
prompt?

Paul.

Re: Help getting started with Amadeus

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Marlaina,

at first: Amadeus Pro is great. But with Sound Forge I'm way faster. Amadeus is 
a bit less intuitive. 

1. Amadeus has not that many short cuts as SF. But you can define your own ones 
in the system preferences. That's much better then in Windows.

2. You should read the help section of Amadeus and read the guides on 
maccessibility.net.

After that you should be able to answer your questions yourself. If not ask 
again here.

All the best

terminal: what is bzw

[Paul Erkens]

Dear listers,
Subject says it all. How is bz2 different from zip? Can you generalize it by 
saying that bz2 is simply another file compression format like rar etc? In 
which cases is bz2 generally used?
Paul.

Re: Help getting started with Amadeus

[Paul Erkens]

Marlena,
To add to Jurgen.
Load up a file: hit command o in amadeus and browse as usual.
2. To save a file, it's in the file menu where you expect it. Just like in a 
text editor you can choose the file type, so you can also save directly into 
mp3, into wav, aac or whatever you want.
3. There is one concept to be very aware of. Amadeus has what is called the 
play head, and it has a separate editing cursor, called the insertion point. I 
wish there were a way to bind them together, but often when editing, I 
sometimes still forget that the playhead is not where the insertion point is. 
In general, the play head is at the spot you are listening to, moving along as 
playtime goes by. The insertion point stays where it is, and you have to 
manually pull it towards the play head with command y. The play head is 
something you might remember from old reel to reel recorders. It's a metal 
solid object, that plays audio as the tape is pulled past it.

Once playing, you can stop with the space bar. Space again to resume. Turn 
quicknav off and left and right arrows will skip back a few seconds, or 
forward. Once stopped, or while playing, hit p to drop a marker at the play 
head. Play on by hitting space, and fast forward with right arrow till you have 
your next spot where you want another marker, optionally pause playback and hit 
p to drop another marker. You can view how many markers you have set, and also 
where in time they are, by looking in the window menu. You'll find a marker 
menu option there, that displays a window where you have this marker and time 
info. To clear all markers, first hit command a before using the delete all 
markers command, or else they won't be deleted. I found that out the hard way 
and had to ask on the hairersoft forum on their site. 

And a last thing. Once you have a file open, and you notice that space for play 
and pause no longer works, then the scroll area that the amadeus focus should 
be on is no longer in focus. This happens if you voiceover away from that 
scroll area, while exploring other parts of the screen. If space doesn't do its 
thing anymore, or the arrows to skim through the audio, then move back to the 
scroll area, and then perform a mouse click there. Do that like this: first 
route the mouse to where the voiceover cursor is. The voiceover cursor should 
be on the scroll area in the amadeus window. Hit command vo f5 to route the 
mouse to the voiceover cursor. Now perform a mouse click, by hitting shift vo 
space. Focus is then restored to the scroll area, and now space etc will work 
again.
Hope this helps you some, to get you going.

Re: can't get braillesense plus to pare with mac

[erik burggraaf]

Hi Donna,

Just got word from HIMS that they expect our issue to be fixed by the beginning 
of april in the 7.0 swv.  Meanwhile they tell me we can get it working USB 
which isn't ideal but will at least allow me to do the training they're paying 
me for.  :)

Have fun,

x11

[Paul Erkens]

Dear listers,

What I know so far. From what I googled, x11 is software that gives you a 
framework with display support, and also a rich set of input devices. Using 
x11, a client program can be built. All that is often used to access remote 
computers. Where you log in to your mac being the only user, there are other 
computers that you don't need to sit behind, if you want to use them. Instead, 
you log in over a network or over the internet, and you get time cycles from a 
remote machine, allocated to your programs that you use. Not only you, but a 
lot of users can be logged in to such a remote machine, each over their own 
internet connection, each user running their own programs, simultaneous with 
the other users. Such a remote machine is called a time sharing computer. 
Correct so far?

Why is x11 installed by the lion installer, and if an application is built 
using x11, is it accessible by voiceover then? 
Paul.

Re: x11

[erik burggraaf]

Hi, x11 apps aren't accessible with voiceover.  In order to use such it needs 
to be self-voicing which can be accomplished during the development process by 
building in NVDA and SAPI5 voices but would substantially increase the size of 
the app.

Hope this helps,

Creating Ringtones for Iphone

[Shawn Krasniuk]

Hey everyone. Has anyone been successful creating their own ringtones? I stayed 
up last night until 4 in the morning trying to accomplish this. First, I used a 
program in the Mac App Store called Free Ringtone Maker. It is kinda 
accessible, but there are a few unlabelled buttons that I'm sure when pressed, 
they do some kind of function. I also used iTunes to make a ringtone and 
followed some steps on how to do this, but still no go. It is shown on the 
phone but it says it's dimmed. So, is there a way of making a ringtone yourself 
or is there an accessible app to do this?

Shawn

Re: Creating Ringtones for Iphone

[Red.Falcon]

Hi Shawn!
Ok I've made some using Itunes and they work great!
I do not know how long you've made yours but to use as either a ringtone or as 
a text alert they must be 30 seconds or less!
And if only for a ringtone they can be up to 39 seconds!
But I know from other posts about this that Amadeus has a export as ringtone 
section in it!

xcode subset accessibility

[Paul Erkens]

Dear listers,

Which parts of xcode are actually accessible with voiceover? Of course, most, 
if not all of the stuff for the command line is, because it is text based, but 
what about the rest? If at all you are using parts of it, can you elaborate a 
bit on them? For example, I know that the form designer is completely 
inaccessible. But what about other parts of the ide? And suplemantary tools?
Paul.

Re: terminal: what is bzw

[Chris Blouch]

You can answer some questions about commands by going to the terminal 
and using the manual pages. In this case you would do


man bz2

which gives you a bit of info followed by how to use the bz2 command. In 
the instructions they have a link to


http://www.bzip.org/

which also gives you details. Summary is, as you expected, it's another 
file compressor although they claim much faster compression and 
uncompression speeds among other advantages. Disadvantage is that it's 
not as popular so if you send a bzip file to someone else they might not 
know what to do with it.

which cases is bz2 generally used?

Re: x11

[Chris Blouch]

X11 and xTerminals have been around for decades. The idea is to separate 
the GUI from the CPU. So drop down menus, window management, mouse, 
keyboard, audio and other user-facing aspects are all a separate 
framework. In the days of yore you could actually buy dumb xterms and 
have a room full of them hooked to a single CPU over ethernet. That 
said, xterm displays and such are now just software used to support 
connections to remote computers (almost always unix) with something more 
than a command line. As has been mentioned, xterm and the x11 apps that 
run on it are not accessible and, based on the vintage of the 
technology, probably will never be. There is less and less need for 
xterms with web clients, screen sharing and desktop computers 
everywhere. It did have some neat features that I could, in theory, have 
a computer anywhere on the internet and route its GUI display to my Mac 
running xterm, but how useful is that today with other screen sharing 
apps readily available? They had a whole system set up where the remote 
CPU could send a command to my xterm to pop a new window of certain size 
and location. My xterm could also send a command back saying the window 
was moved from one location to another. All very low bandwidth stuff. 
Today bandwidth is such that they just do a brute force method to take 
screen shots 10 times a second and send that whole video stream over the 
wire. Who needs delicate frameworks when you can do that, and it handles 
anything that can be thrown on the screen.


Anyway, just some history. Today you have to install the Xcode developer 
stuff to get x11 since most people don't need or care about this, and 
most developers probably wouldn't either. Just for fun I went ahead and 
did this (1.8GB download for Xcode). After installing I went to terminal 
and did a cd into the X11 directory


cd /usr/X11/bin

and then did

xcalc &

which fires up an x11 calculator. Voiceover couldn't even find the 
calcualtor window in the xterminal. Even if it did, it would probably 
just be a big giant bitmap as far as VO was concerned. With XCode 
installed you can do a


man X

to read more about xwindows.

On 2/8/12 10:05 AM, Paul Erkens wrote:

Dear listers,

What I know so far. From what I googled, x11 is software that gives you a 
framework with display support, and also a rich set of input devices. Using 
x11, a client program can be built. All that is often used to access remote 
computers. Where you log in to your mac being the only user, there are other 
computers that you don't need to sit behind, if you want to use them. Instead, 
you log in over a network or over the internet, and you get time cycles from a 
remote machine, allocated to your programs that you use. Not only you, but a 
lot of users can be logged in to such a remote machine, each over their own 
internet connection, each user running their own programs, simultaneous with 
the other users. Such a remote machine is called a time sharing computer. 
Correct so far?

Why is x11 installed by the lion installer, and if an application is built 
using x11, is it accessible by voiceover then?
Paul.

Yes, that's what audio highjack pro does. it captures audio from anything you

Grab a demo off their site. If you want to buy it, it's only $32. Best $32 ever

Re: Amadeus for Marlaina

Hi Marlaina,

I love Amadeus and use it exclusively for all my recording needs. It's not as 
professional as Pro Tools, but it works well for my needs. I basically just 
record acoustic instruments and then track vocals, harmonies etc on top. There 
are others on this list that are much more expierenced than I at using this 
wonderful program, but I will give  you the commands I use the most.
To configure Amadeus to use markers, you have to go in the preferences and 
general by pressing command comma. Then do the following  in playback behavior 
set if selection is empty play from insertion point,
If selection is not empty play selection,
The most important one is this one which is display follows playback this box 
has to be unchecked. If you don't configure Amadeus like this, you will have 
great difficulty in dropping markers. I learned this from Eric Caron's podcast 
on Blind Cool tech. Here are the commands I use most frequently.

to drop a marker is P as in Paul
to jump between next and previous markers is option right and left arrow. Right 
arrow with option for next and left with option for prevous. You can also use 
option left arrow to go to the beginning of a sound. You can also interact with 
a track by pressing VO shift down arriow and explore the settings there like 
volume, name the track and paning. To delete a marker just hit delete once you 
have reached that marker. I know there are more commands that I'm not even 
thinking of right now. Oh, to record a track command N for new sound. Then 
press command R and you will see the recording dialog. You can also paste 
things you have recorded to different tracks, there is a paste special command 
which I believe is command option V as in Victor. If you would like more 
assistance, you are more than welcome to write me offlist. I can do a custom 
podcast for you. I hope this helps get you started. Have a great day.

Allison

Re: x11

[Jonathan C. Cohn]

X11 is a windowing framework that MIT did extensive development for in the 
1990's  It is client server based, and is almost always associated with UNIX 
systems.  All windowing systems I have heard of for the LINUX operating system 
are X11 based.

One "neat  thing about X11 is that there are several "WIndow Managers" out 
there GNOME, FVWM, VWM, Motif.   Each of these have different buttons for 
minimizing and zooming windows and exactly how it is determined which window 
takes input from the keyboard.  So, X11 is good if you are working with 
graphical programs from a Linux or Solaris system, or have ported LInux 
software to your macintosh.  I don't believe that Voice Over interacts with X11 
at all, but since there are API's that  say put text x in Window y, and Linux 
now has ORCA or some other screen readers it is quite possible I am mistaken.  
I have not accessed an X11 application from my Macintosh in 5 years.

Best wishes,

Re: terminal: prompt

[Jonathan C. Cohn]

The prompt string  is defined in the variable PS1 for the bourne shell.  I 
believe that bash  (bourne again shell ) also uses this variable.  Note: you 
only need to set it, no need to export it to the environment.  

First check to verify the shell you are running 
echo$shell

then run a man page on the shell (if you want to get fancy , then code like the 
below should bring up the man page in preview...

man -t bash | open -a preview -f 

But then again, google can find man pages, and there is actually a option in 
Google settings to indicate that you want a UNIX man page when you enter  "man 
XXX" in the google search bar.
