Re: strange problem

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Egbert,

honnestley: I have no clue what you mean by: they don't go away

Do you mean it's not possible closing them by pressing CMD + w? You may have 
pressed save and the program is still saving. Just wait a little bit longer and 
try again.

 Hi Jessica,
 
 this is not a area I   use a lot, as once I got it working I never touched
 
 the settings again.  But, I can offer a few general tips and hopefully
 others can provide you more detailed help.
 
 First, I remember when I first started using my Google account on the
 iPhone there was no delete button.  You have a archive button instead.
 Use that as you would delete and don't move things to trash.  Someone else
 
 will need to chime in on how to get the delete button to show up, that is
 if you want it to.  some people prefer the Archive button.
 
 In settings you can change the mail behavior for downloading messages. I
 have mine set up to only download when I open Mail.  this will give you
 the behavior you want.  Again a better expert can walk you through the
 settings but if you look under settings then mail, you should find it.
 
 Hope this info helps a little.

Re: strange problem

[Egbert]

Hi Jurgen,
okee, sorry i ll make myself more clear.
It should be so, when i close the program, the flac files will also go.
but here they won't.
when i open the audio editer again, the files are also there.
So deleting them from the edit area or not saving them has no effect.
I like to work without them smile.
Any idea?

Question on adding columns in Numbers

[Scott Howell]

Hi all,

FOr those of you who are familiar with Numbers I have a question. I am trying 
to create a spreadsheet that would let me create three or four columns with 
text headers such as paint, flooring etc.
Then I want to have the ability to put a dollar amount in each column and have 
the individual columns added up at the bottom or top-where ever.
The goal is to have individual columns that contain a specific item and if I 
buy a gallon of blue paint, green paint, and purple paint, I want to put each 
cost of the paint in the paint column and have a total of what I spent for the 
paint.
I did not see a sample I could use in the available templates. So, any help is 
appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: Mac + Chrome + Netflix = html5?

[Traci]

Thanks for testing this.  Quite a bummer.

In my googling, I came across some articles from last year talking about google 
chrome and netflix using html5, so I was hoping that was in place and 
voFriendly.

Watching netflix movies on the iPad are accessible.

Re: Question on adding columns in Numbers

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi Scott. 
No prob. First, when I do this, I make to assign how many header rows and 
column rows I want. I think the default is one of each. First, when you call up 
Numbers you get be template list when you choose a new file with command n. 
Then I press enter on that if it says blank. Interact on the layout option and 
the table option. Then press VO you for the menu and go table. Go down until 
you find the option for header rows submenu; I think there's one for columns 
too, but i can't remember. Press right arrow on the submenu and get The list. 
You probably want 1, so you won't need to do this part of the procedure unless 
you want more. 

VoiceOver uses these headers to announce things. So, put your titles across the 
row the way you want them in row 1, and perhaps a title in column 1, maybe. Go 
down your columns and put in your numbers. I put in a divider line by typing 
apostrophe symbol followed by 6 equal signs so VO will say them. 

Then call up the menu with VO M and right arrow to INSERT. Go down arrow until 
you find Function. The first item under it is sum. It should then automatically 
put in your total of that column.  types in the formula for you, I love it. 

The only thing is that sometimes VoiceOver won't say A, b, c, etc. If you want 
to add up things in the row, you can use Excel formulas by typing in the equals 
sign followed by the letter and row you want to add, then the plus sign, and 
the next one, etc. There may be an easier way to do this part, but I haven't 
found it yet. I use Numbers all the time to do what y're doing. The only thing 
I have trouble getting done is a command on the keyboard to go to the end of 
the file. So, I use the track pad if I want to go very far in a large file. 

Regards, 
Gigi

Hello Gigi,

To go to the end of a Numbers document, press VO-Shift-End (VO-FN-Shift-Right 
Arrow on a laptop).

pdftotext utility [was Re: Xpdf for mac]

[Esther]

Hi Dan,

You can grab the Mac OS X installer package for pdftotext from Carsten Blüm's 
web page:
http://www.bluem.net/en/mac/packages/

Just download the latest version, which is  pdftotext 3.01pl5 (13/07/2011, 686 
KB, for Intel Macs).  Double-clicking the Installer.pkg on the pdftotext.dmg 
installs the pdftotext utility but not the suite of other xpdf utilities.  If 
you need to install the full version of xpdf, I'd check the macports web pages 
about Lion problems, and also read the instructions for Xcode 4.3 migration of 
macports before proceeding.  

Using the command;
pdftotext 
in Terminal creates a .txt version of the file in the same directory as the pdf 
file.  This does not convert pdf files that are purely graphics images.

If you want to run this from the Terminal command line, I'd recommend that you 
get the free Go2Shell utility from the Mac App Store:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/go2shell/id445770608?mt=12
This is a low-footprint app that opens up a Terminal window in the directory of 
the file you've highlighted in Finder, and saves you having to type long 
pathnames either for the file you want to convert (although you can do a 
Command-C copy in Finder and then a Command-V paste in Terminal), or cd to a 
change directory to that pathname before applying your command.

Alternatively, you can put an AppleScript wrapper around the pdftotext command 
and use this from the GUI. Just open your AppleScript Editor (use 
Command+Shift+U in Finder to go to your Utilities folder, press "a p" to go to 
the AppleScript Editor and use Command+Down Arrow or Command+O to launch it) 
and paste in the following code (staring below the line labeled "Cut Here", and 
ending with the line "end run"):
---Cut Here---
(*
Use pdftotext to create a text version of the selected PDF file
  Created 17 May 2011
*)
on run
   tell application "Finder"
   set chosenFile to the selection as alias
   end tell
   do shell script "/usr/local/bin/pdftotext " & quoted form of POSIX path 
of chosenFile
end run

Since Lion now hides the Library file for your account, and you'd usually store 
this AppleScript in a Library/Scripts folder, I'll post a neat solution for 
unhiding your ~/Library folder from Doug Adams' AppleScripts for iTunes web 
pages on "Installing AppleScript under Mac OS X Lion". Simply go to the 
"download this AppleScript applet" link on the "Make Users Library Folder 
VIsible" page at:
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/2011/07/installing-applescripts-under-os-x-lion/
Opening the downloaded applet will make the Library folder on your account 
visible without having to type a command on the Terminal command line or 
download and run an application like TinkerTool to reconfigure your account 
preference settings.

Either compile the AppleScript with Command-K, or else select a pdf file in 
Finder and switch back to the AppleScript Editor with Command-Tab, then run the 
AppleScript with Command-R (which also compiles it) to test this. You can save 
the file to the Library/Scripts folder on your home directory, with a name of 
your choice (e.g., "PDF to Text").  (You may need to create this folder if this 
is the first time you are using AppleScripts.)  If you also bring up the 
preferences menu before quitting the AppleScript Editor with Command-comma, and 
check the box for "Show Script menu on menu bar" on the general tab, "PDF to 
Text" (or whatever name you saved) will show up under the "AppleScript" menu on 
the status menu bar.  

Another alternative to navigating to the status menu bar (VO-M-M or Control-F8) 
and navigating to the "PDF to Text" entry of the AppleScript menu is to use 
Automator, and set this up as a service by pasting text into the "run 
AppleScript" action. This was also previously described in the forum posts in 
the "Re: something like pdf2txt on the mac?" thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg45375.html

HTH.  Note that both the AppleScript and Automator solutions also allow you to 
process multiple PDF files that you have selected in Finder.

Cheers,

Esther

Re: strange problem

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Egbert,

it seems to me you didn't close the sound window before closing the program, 
did you? At least in Amadeus Pro press CMD + w to close an open window. When 
you then close the program the sound should still be closed after relaunching 
Amadeus Pro. ;-)

Give it a try and tell wether you were successful.
All the best

Burning DMG files?

[Bill Holton]

Looks like to burn a DMG file to a disk you have to drag and drop the source
and destination in the disk utilities menu and then restore.  Is there a
better way to do this with keystroke commands?  Thanks.

Bill

Re: Burning DMG files?

[erik burggraaf]

Well, you could brush up your voiceover drag and drop skills, or you could try 
http://www.simplyburns.sourceforge.net where you wil find a fully functioning 
cd burner for the mac.
Open simply burns.
tab to the burn image button and press space.
tab to the choose file button and press space.
Choose the fusion dmg.
Throw in a CD, and hit the burn button.
Incidentally simply burns will show you all partitions on the image.  My guess 
is that you'll see an hfs partition and a cdfs or UTF8 or some such.  But there 
will be two partitions, one for mac and the other for windows, and you wil be 
able to identify them before burning.

Hope this helps,

Mac file sharing with windows machines problem

[Claus Thøgersen]

Hi,

I have a Mac Mini running 10.6.7. I want to use it as a media server to 
stream my music from.

This means I have to be able to access files from my  Windows pcs.

I have followed the guides on how to setup Windows file sharing, 
enabling smb, and give the correct workgroup Name, setting up folders to 
share and the permissions for both my regular mac user account and guest 
account, all users have both read and write access to the shared folders.


I can access both my Windows computers from the mac. I can ping the mac 
from the Windows machines, but I cannot access the Mac, it does not show 
up in the network list on the Windows machines. I get the usual Windows 
network error both when I try to connect to the Minis IP address, or  
using the machine Name.


In my setup I need to be able to access the Mac from the windows 
machines, the application that controls the streaming is a Windows 
application.


I have gone over setup for file sharing, the only problem is that it 
does not work. On the net there is not a lot of guides on how to 
troubleshoot this problem.

Regards

Claus

Anyone Ever Use Homespun Music for Instruction?

[Teresa Cochran]

Hi, all,

It seems to me that the Instant Access app for the Mac is not accessible. Does 
anyone know if there's another way to download the files? I saw something in 
the app about using an alternate player, but that's probably just for playing 
the music lessons.

Meanwhile, I'm purchasing an old-fashioned CD from them, because I really 
believe in what they do, and I want to learn Hawaiian slack-key guitar. :)

TiA,
Teresa

Sysdiagnose Files Popping up Spontaneously in Finder?

[Teresa Cochran]

Hi, all,

I can be in the middle of doing anything on my Mac Mini, and suddenly, a file 
called sysdiagnose with a date pops into being. I've tried backtracking through 
the file path, and it seems to be hd/private/temp/sysdiagnosennn (where nnn is 
the date). . Anyone have ideas?

Re: Mac file sharing with windows machines problem

[erik burggraaf]

Hi, have you tried disabling any firewalls including windows firewall?
Also , have you tried making a network location named after your windows work 
group on the mac so that windows thinks your mac belongs to that workgroup?

Re: Anyone Ever Use Homespun Music for Instruction?

[CJ Daniel]

Hi Teresa,

Don't know about the player in question, but I thought I'd mention blindvi.com. 
 Bill brown runs it & creates tutorials for guitar, piano, banjo, drums & etc 
for the blind.  It's a great sight & NLS carries quite a few of his titles.  
Might want to check it out.

Best wishes,

CJ

Re: Burning DMG files?

[John Panarese]

Can't you select the disk image in Disk Utility from the list, put a blank 
disk in the optical drive and then with the image selected, choose, Burn, from 
the toolbar?  I haven't done this in a while, but I think that's how I did it 
in the past.

Unfortunately, the site seems to be down. I'll look at the catalog for NLS, but 
none of his books appear to be on Bard either.

Thanks much,

Hdeterming DAISY version of a book

[Kevin Gibbs]

Guys,
I have a problem. I have a daisy book that was done by the Minnesota
State services for the blind. However, I don't really know how to find
out what version of Daisy the book is done in. Can anyone tell me if
there's a method for finding this out? I want to buy an app for my
iPhone but need to make sure that the app supports the DAISY of this
specific book.

I did download JAWS 12 and discovered that this particular book would
work with that FS reader. However, I need to make sure that it will
work with either in daisy or read to go.  The only thing I know for
certain is that the book is audio only.  The book was delivered on a
cd ROM with a bunch of MP3 files all of which have long numbers
instead of descriptive filenames. There are also .sml files and one
HTML file.    Again, is there any way to look at these files on the
 disk to determine the flavor of Daisy employed?

RE: Burning DMG files?

Ah, that would workwere it not for my problem that apple has not been able
to solve that when I try to access an empty drive Finder stays busy forever.
Apparently a blank DVD disk causes this, too, because for the past  hour the
menu has said this drive is busy.  Not sure what to do here, Apple has not
responded to any of my recent inquiries about the solution of this problem.

Re: Burning DMG files?

[John Panarese]

 This is my personal experience only, so I preface this by saying that I 
have no proof that it makes a difference, but I was having a lot of issues with 
blank CDs and DVDs, as well as when opening an optical disk causing repeated 
busy signals.  I ended up deleting my Finder preference files from my user 
library and rebooted the system.  I haven't had any issues since.

 Note that if you delete finder preferences, you will have to reconfigure 
Finder in any customizable way you might have initially set.  For example, 
you'll have to check all of the boxes for what will appear on the desktop, such 
as hard disks, connected servers, etc.

Re: Question on adding columns in Numbers

[Scott Howell]

Thank you Gigi and Anne for the info.
Gigi I will follow your instructions. I had done something similar, but the 
math wasn't working out, so likely something I was doing wrong.

Re: Remove programs from Desktop

[Emrah]

Hey Mike,

If you want to move a program to the applications folder and are using Lion, do 
the following.

1. Position your cursor on the app you want to move.
2. Press Command+C
3. Open up your Applications folder by pressing Command+Shift+A.
4. Press Command+Option+V.

If that is not convenient, you can always create a folder and move everything 
you do not want in it.

Hope this helps,
Emrah

redirecting voice over?

[Ray Foret Jr]

Say, can someone out there tell me whether or not it is possible to cause VO to 
be redirected to another output other than the default?  I'm not talking here 
about chaging the default output to Sound Flower or anything; rather, I'd like 
to be able to redirect VO itself to  occur in another output other than the 
default.  Is this possible?  I've look in Utilities/Audio Midi set up and can't 
seem to find it there.  Thanks.

If your using Lion, yes.  If not, no.  Look in VO utilities under sound.  There 
is a pop up menu to choose what sound card VO uses.

Re: Burning DMG files?

[erik burggraaf]

Yeh, you know, when I looked for burn, I couldn't find the tool bar on my 
finder.  It's not something I use all that often so may have unchecked it or 
something.  There's burn to disk in the file menu or the context menu, but 
without actually burning a disk, I couldn't be sure they wouldn't just burn a 
copy of the disk image, which wouldn't be what the doctor ordered.

Where-as simply burns is tried and true.  It gives you full information before 
it burns the image.  It has all kinds of other burning features such as the 
ability to make audio cd's from flac files, or create images from your cd's or 
dvd's.  As much as I know finder and disk utility do all these wonderful 
things, I prefer to trust an actual cd burning program to handle it.  I can see 
exactly what's going on and know exactly what it's doing.

Best,

Re: Burning DMG files?

[John Panarese]

I think you need to be in disk utility.  The toolbar, I believe, is hidden, 
so you might have to reveal it.  Then, there is a burn button in the toolbar.  
As long as you have the disk image selected from the drive list and a blank 
disk in the optical drive, you should be good to go.

RE: Burning DMG files?

[Bill Holton]

I would love to try this, but before I go willy nilly deleting files can you
tell me what file it is and how to get to it?  Is I the library folder that
is visible or the one you have to jump through hoops to get to?
Thanks.

 This is my personal experience only, so I preface this by saying that I
have no proof that it makes a difference, but I was having a lot of issues
with blank CDs and DVDs, as well as when opening an optical disk causing
repeated busy signals.  I ended up deleting my Finder preference files from
my user library and rebooted the system.  I haven't had any issues since.

 Note that if you delete finder preferences, you will have to
reconfigure Finder in any customizable way you might have initially set.
For example, you'll have to check all of the boxes for what will appear on
the desktop, such as hard disks, connected servers, etc.

Re: Burning DMG files?

[John Panarese]

 It is gthe hidden library you get to using the go menu in Finder and 
typing, ~/library as the folder name.   In the preferences subfolder, you want 
to delete the com.apple.finder.plist file.  Again, though, remember that this 
will remove any configurations you have made to Finder.

Take Care

Update on weird braille problem

[Gigi]

> 
> Hi guys
Some of you may remember, that I had a problem with my braille display. It was 
doing weird things like doing reversals on contractions and reversals even on 
letters typed in missing docs etc. Well, I discovered something I didn't know 
today, and it may affect anybody who happens to be having any weird problems 
with their braille display. I think I remember somebody on this list saying 
they were having some, so here's what I found out.
Because I was having such an irritating recurring problem, I decided to take my 
braille display off of voiceovers list, and didn't reestablish it. Well, that 
made things better, but I still had a problem. So, after writing Apple, I 
decided to go for a Genius Bar appointment. I was going for other reasons, and 
I had to wait. So, not thinking that was going to find out anything, I call 
that the voiceover utility. Gas what! I found out that although voiceover had 
my braille display listed as a cat focus 40 using USB, it also said that my key 
input was no input from primary braille display. I didn't think that could 
happen with a focus 40 since it has keys, and I thought voiceover decided it 
was going to use Kinyon puts or not. Well I change this option that didn't 
solve the problem until I restarted my computer it looks like that my computer 
in my braille display are getting back together again. So, if any of you are 
having any weird things going on with your braille display, especially if you 
have one with braille key for input, you may want to go under displays in the 
voiceover utilities under the braille option and find out what you're saying is 
there.
Regards,
Gigi

Re: time machine

[Gigi]

Hi guys
When I do Time Machine backups, and I hope I have interpreted the question 
correctly, I noticed that there is a long number after the update of the folder 
and I figured out, that this is the time and date. However, it is written like 
in military time. For instance, 4 o'clock in the afternoon will be 1600, and 
then the year after it today in the year after it.
Regards
Gigi

RE: Burning DMG files?

[Bill Holton]

This did something, but not enough.  I deleted the file, and now when I go
to disk utilities and select the VMware dmg file and then go to tools and
pick burn instead of disk busy messages I get a waiting for disk to be
inserted message, this despite the fact there is a writable disk in the
Superdrive and I can feel and hear it spinning.  Also, tried with three
different disks that all work fine because when I put them in my win box the
menu comes up saying what would you llike to write to this disk?
Any other thoughts and suggestions greatly appreciated.

 This is my personal experience only, so I preface this by saying that I
have no proof that it makes a difference, but I was having a lot of issues
with blank CDs and DVDs, as well as when opening an optical disk causing
repeated busy signals.  I ended up deleting my Finder preference files from
my user library and rebooted the system.  I haven't had any issues since.

 Note that if you delete finder preferences, you will have to
reconfigure Finder in any customizable way you might have initially set.
For example, you'll have to check all of the boxes for what will appear on

question of Outlook tell recognizer

[Gigi]

> Hi guys
I thought of something that I would like to see if the Look tell Recognizer can 
do it. If I were to get someone to take a picture of a Dallas area rapid 
transit bus stop sign, could it learn to recognize them I am getting sick of 
looking for those things. Today I was standing right next to one, and didn't 
know it at first. I only found out when this lady looked at the bus schedule.

Wow! Major successRE: Burning DMG files?

[Bill Holton]

Hi.
Apparently the order was critical.  This time I removed the Superdrive,
deleted the library file, shut down the mini, restarted, then attached the
Superdrive.  Not only did it work flawlessly, it seems to have solved a
problem I have been going back and forth with Apple about since
November--whenever I had an empty drie and would try to access it via Finder
I would get busy, busy, forever.  Attached a USB HD, erased it, then
accessed it fine via Finder.
So done for tonight, tomorrow I try to install the tools  in my VM Window.
Thanks for all the great help here from everyone!

 Are you having problems with disk in general?   Also, have you tried
other blank disks?  This seems more than a little odd.

I'm glad you got it working.  Like I said, I had a similar issue, but I 
never try to assume that a "fix" I tried is universal unless I have read about 
it from another source or have it confirmed by other sources.

RE: Wow! Major successRE: Burning DMG files?

[Bill Holton]

Looks like I spoke too soon on the busy problem.  I was able to access the
drive about four times, and then I started getting busy busy again.  But it
must be something that's going into that preference file.  There is a second
com.finder file that is a unix executable.  Any idea what that one does and
if I should try deleting it, too?

 I deleted both myself.  I just wanted to be sure.  I don't like to mess 
with preference files unless I have a pretty good idea of what I am doing.  Of 
course, backup, backup, backup.

RE: Wow! Major successRE: Burning DMG files?

[Bill Holton]

I have narrowed my problems to a very unique set of keystrokes.  When I
delete the preference file everything works fine.  I can attach a USB drive,
erase it, then use command-O to access the drive, leave it, access it again
and again.
But if from the desktop I press command-3 to set finder to read in  columns
mode and then try to access the drive I get busy, busy, busy, and it  will
stay that way until I  re-delete the library file.
I have done this three times so far, always the same results.
Very strange, but at least now I can maybe get them to duplicate it.

 I deleted both myself.  I just wanted to be sure.  I don't like to mess
with preference files unless I have a pretty good idea of what I am doing.
Of course, backup, backup, backup.

 Hello again,
 
 Here are two more silly questions for y'all:
 
 1) How exactly can I get signatures to be pasted at the bottom of each 
 email? I've created signatures, but do not see them in the option in which 
 I would normally select a signature.
 2) Where are photos and movie clips from Photo Booth normally stored?
 
 Thanks,

Option command l should still do it.  Also you can interact into tool bar, and 
vo avow to the right past the search box and there's a button you can click on.

Re: dowload page

[Thomas McMahan]

I just tried option command without a download running, and it didn't come up, 
so try the download button in the toolbar if nothing is active.  My homepage 
though is a blank homepage when I open Safari.  Most people probably don't 
prefer that but I do.

My iMac won't sleep

[Paul Henrichsen]

Hi. For some reason, my iMac will no longer go to sleep if left on. It wil if I 
select sleep, but not on its own.
In system preferrences, under users and log in, I only have growl, an apple 
helper from iTunes, I think, and dropbox. I have my power saver settings at 
default.
Any ideas what happened to make the mac no longer sleep?
Thanks.

 Do you mean it's not possible closing them by pressing CMD + w? You may
