Introduction
Hi, I'm new to this group and recently got a macbook running snow leopard. I have many many questions. I'll start with this one. Is there a way with voiceover to put shortcuts to websites on the dock or desktop? I read in the VO manual that there was but couldn't get it to work. Second,Is there a way to read email without having to interact with each message? Can you press enter and have the message read? Finally, I put dropbox on my mac, but don't think I did it right, because it's not syncing with my iPhone properly. How do I remove it and then start over. I don't remember how I got it installed.

Re: FaceTime
I use facetime every day to talk to friends who have an iPhone or have a mac. Facetime is accessible, and I can confirm it because I use it so often. As soon as another friend of ours gets an iphone, we no longer use the regular phones anymore. Facetime sounds very good and it's a breeze to use. By the way: if you have an iPhone, you use FaceTime and you don't want others to see you, although facetime is a video plus audio service, you can still turn off your local camera that sends your looks to the other party. Just press home on your iPhone. Facetime will continue to go, but from then on, you're only transmitting audio, and your receiving party will see a cross through his remote camera, which is you. It saves battery. To return to facetime, if you want to send video again, look in the status bar on the right. You'll see a button called: return to facetime. This also means that you can go to other apps, for example to look up an address for your friend if you like, and then return to facetime so you can later disconnect your call. On the mac, I find the interface a little more difficult, but because facetime is on every mac and iphone, and on several other i devices, no configuration is needed. If your contact list on the phone or on the mac contains the mobile number and or the apple ID email address of your other party, then you're good to go. Hth, Paul.

mail sending continuously, we're stuck
Dear listers, My wife has a mac running Lion with all updates. Her mail started acting strangely, and I can't solve it for now so I'm hoping one of you knows what is going on. One of her mail accounts has a problem. If I send a test message from my wife's mac to myself, with just test in the subject field and blablabla in the body and I send that off, then mail starts sending. But even though this is only a very short message, mail keeps transmitting data. Not just for a minute, but for an hour, if you leave it running. It keeps transmitting until I cancel it. I see the kbps counter change somewhat from time to time, so it looks like a transmission of a large message, but it's not. Test is the only message in outbox, and her other accounts have no mail waiting to be sent. It says test, in the mail activity, which was indeed the subject of the message now being sent, and the progress bar hangs at 51 percent. And not just once, but each time I try it. I then cancel sending of the outgoing message, I delete the test message to be sent from her outbox, I exit and re open mail, I create a new message called test2, and try again. Same thing happens. Instead of hearing the whoosh sound, meaning the message was sent out correctly, the kpbs counter is there, taking up my full outbound bandwidth, the progress bar hangs at 51 percent, and that's where it remains until canceled. She can't receive new mail, and it is becoming rather uncomfortable. Any idea what is happening here? Of course, I could back up her machine, reinstall Lion from scratch, install all her apps again and then recreate her mail accounts, hoping this won't happen again. But it's not Apple like, to do that. I reinstalled her windows several times over the years, but I'm hoping this belongs to the past. What may be going on here? Any help is appreciated.

radio with airplay on the mac
Hi listers, Itunes is not very easy if you just want to listen to radio stations on the mac. I would like to listen to 1 of 3 specific news stations in my country. What do you use to hear national radio in your neighbourhood? Can you send any audio from the mac over airplay with a trick just like on the iphone, or can one only do it from iTunes on the mac?

Re: FaceTime
hello; that was very helpful. so far it seams to me that the mac version of FaceTime is less daunting than the mac version of Skype. but since not everyone has an apple of some kind, i guess i'll have to use both. take care, max On Apr 7, 2012, at 8:58 AM, Paul Erkens wrote: > I use facetime every day to talk to friends who have an iPhone or have a mac. > Facetime is accessible, and I can confirm it because I use it so often.

anyone using AT&T U-verse as Imap rather than pop?
Hi, I'm thinking of setting up my AT&T U-verse as a imap rather than a pop account so that I can keep messages on the server even after checking my e-mail on my Iphone. I guess the first question is this. 1. do I really need to set up AT&T U-verse as an imap rather than a pop account to do this? 2. IF so, what ar the proper imap server designations which I need to use? I know that AT&T has changed there pop 3 server to inbound.att.net and there SMTP to outbound.att.net Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!!

Re: mail sending continuously, we're stuck
the issue in question can occur with certain mail servers like gmail, sky, etc from my experience. it's not an issue with the macs themselves. there may be a settings issue but the likelihood of that is rather minimal. in your mail system, there will be a folder created called recovered emails or something like that. delete it. secondly go to your outbox and delete these messages sent. then quit mail, restart mail and this should solve the problem. failing this, force quit mail with command option escape. the likelihood is that the main mail server is having trouble with accounts and some puppet on a string type is pushing patch cables around whilst singing from Mary Poppins. Don't quote me on that but... Marvelous. give it a day or so is my best guidance. if this still persists, then the worst possible scenario is a rebuild of the OS if there's a setting that has corrupted itself. run disk permissions on both systems. a tip I should share with you all. if you're doing a rebuild or fresh install of the OS, after all your apps are installed, perform a disk permissions repair then after this, create a time machine backup if you have the means to do so. lew On 7 Apr 2012, at 15:14, Paul Erkens wrote: > Dear listers, > My wife has a mac running Lion with all updates.

Re: FaceTime
Hi all, Anyone know if there's a way to make Facetime show up on your iPhone screen? It seems that the only way I can use it is to open Contacts, select a contact, then select FaceTime. this seems weird, because Facetime does show up on the screen of my iPod Touch, so it would seem like you should also be able to have it on the screen of your iPhone..

A question regarding Apple Mail
Hi all, Apple Mail always takes a long time to update my inbox after I start my Mac. For a long time, it only displays the messages that I received when I last used my Mac. For example, I last used my Mac on 3rd April before using it today. So, the last message in my inbox is the message that I received on 3rd April. I will be able to see the messages that I've received after that day only after using my Mac for at least 20-25 minutes. So, what can I do to ensure that my inbox gets immediately updated after I start my Mac? Your help would be really appreciated.

Re: iPad losing battery power rapidly
Hi, before doing that, I would check to see if the device is properly going into standby. The bug effects iPhones and iPod touches so, why not iPads? Leave your device locked for about 2 minutes then press the up or down volume. If you hear the little popping noise VO makes when volume keys are pressed, your device isn't going into standby properly. The first thing I would do is plug your iPad to you computer and just do a sync with iTunes, and just leave it there until the device is fully charged again. Believe it or not, this often does the trick. If that doesn't work, do a soft reset by pressing the power button 5 times. If that doesn't work, hold down the power and home button for about 10 seconds. You device will restart. Lastly, do a factory restore. If all of the above fails, then take the device to an Apple store. hth Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On Apr 7, 2012, at 12:33 PM, Keith Watson wrote: > Andrew, > > I would take it into the Apple store and have them run some diagnostics on > it. 20% overnight is a bit excessive. > > Keith > > On Apr 7, 2012, at 1:35 AM, Andrew Lamanche wrote: > >> Dear Listers, >> >> I am somewhat puzzled as to why my iPad 2 loses power so rapidly.

Re: FaceTime
Hi, When you use the facetime app on the touch, what is the difference? I've never used it on one so was just curious.

Facetime sounds very good and it's a breeze to use. By the way: if you have an iPhone, you use FaceTime and you don't want others to see you, although facetime is a video plus audio service, you can still turn off your local camera that sends your looks to the other party. Just press home on your iPhone. Facetime will continue to go, but from then on, you're only transmitting audio, and your receiving party will see a cross through his remote camera, which is you. It saves battery. To return to facetime, if you want to send video again, look in the status bar on the right. You'll see a button called: return to facetime. This also means that you can go to other apps, for example to look up an address for your friend if you like, and then return to facetime so you can later disconnect your call. On the mac, I find the interface a little more difficult, but because facetime is on every mac and iphone, and on several other i devices, no configuration is needed. If your contact list on the phone or on the mac contains the mobile number and or the apple ID email address of your other party, then you're good to go. Hth, Paul.

Re: FaceTime
Hey Ricardo, IDK, maybe it's psychological, but it seems easier to me. If you FaceTime from your phone, you have to open Contacts, go to the contact you want, select FaceTime, then select the number or email address. If you do it from the Touch, when you open FaceTime, you're already in your contacts, so you just select the one you want. You're also already in FaceTime, so you don't have to select that either, so you just tap the number or email you want. It's only a couple of steps, but it feels less cumbersome.

Using Siri to activate FaceTime
Hi all, this discussion has gotten me curious, so I've been playing around a bit. It would seem that you can use Siri to make a FaceTime call. At least, if you say "FaceTime Donna Goodin" Siri gets that you want to place a FaceTime Call, and prompts you to select the phone number or email you want. But then the call never goes through. Just curious, has anyone else been able to use Siri to place a FaceTime Call? Cheers, Donna -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Using Siri to activate FaceTime

Pages and Braille Display
Hey all, Can someone tell me if a braille display can be used with Pages? I have never tried one before so I don't know how it works. Thanks.

Re: Pages and Braille Display
yep it can. the braille display is system wide and as long as voiceover can see what's there and understands it, it's converted to braille output. if you're looking for a really mobile and trustworthy braille display that's sharp, check out the humanware brailliant 40 cell or above. I used one for a short while before my fingers lost the degree of sensitivity for braille. but I have to say, it was a really nice display and gave me a decent heads up when I needed it for previewing or editing. lew On 7 Apr 2012, at 19:40, Michael Malarsie wrote: > Hey all, >Can someone tell me if a braille display can be used with Pages?

Re: dropbox question.
Hi Ricardo, I'm running Dropbox 1.2.52 on Lion, and I don''t have this problem. When I put across the stanza.dmg file in my public folder and used the context menu for the link, I found under the "Dropbox" submenu the options for "Browse on Dropbox Website", "View Previous Versions", and "Copy Public Link" -- which is what I used to send you the original link in Stanza. The Dropbox directory is set up as a symbolic link on your system. Is it possible there is something wrong with the disk that stores your account on the Dropbox site? If I log into Dropbox at: https://www.dropbox.com/home/Public I can view my Public folder items, and use the context menu. But I notice that navigation order is weird on the Public page after I bring up the context menu. What happens is that you only get to the context menu options after you navigate through all the items listed in your folder. To get around that, after you do your VO-Shift-M, bring up item chooser menu (VO-I), and type "Copy" so you can navigate to the first of the context menu options. Them you can either VO-Space on the copy option, or continue to navigate to the other context menu items. Alternatively, use the "Search Dropbox" text box to type in part of the file name. That should filter what is displayed on the page. That's how I discovered that when you use the context menu shortcut, then navigate the files on the Dropbox web page, you get all the files in your folder announced by VoiceOver before you get the announcement of the list of items in your context menu. I don't keep lots of items in my Dropbox Public folder. You probably need someone who uses Dropbox a lot to help you troubleshoot. HTH.

Re: navigation and formatting questions
Hello Kirsten, In Pages, you set the type of bullets you want for your bulleted list in the Text inspector, List tab. Unfortunately, you won't be able to read the bullets with VoiceOver, however, you can check that they're there by using the very handy "New TextEdit window with selection" service item as they show up just fine in TextEdit. I have short cuts for several useful service commands which make using the iWork suite much more practical. Cheers, Anne On 7 Apr 2012, at 21:48, Kirsten Edmondson wrote: > Thanks very much Chris.

Any cheaper way to get a new charger that works with my somewhat older Macbook?
Hi there. I have this Mac Book that I bought for a good deal some time in 2008 or 2009, that was upgraded and was only 6 months used at that time, if the guy ever did much with it besides keeping it around to sell. When I took it home to my parents' place once, I never noticed that the charger got in front of the car door, and some bracket snapped off. My dad was able to super glue it back together and it works here, but I might be getting a work experience where I might need to move it around from one outlet to another since it only goes about 90 minutes in Windows, and maybe a little more in Snow Leopard. From what I've read, a new one of these costs around $80 and may not work, depending if my machine successfully took a certain firmware update. Is there cheaper places to get one like the original one that I have so I don't find myself in a situation that a different kind doesn't charge the battery?

Re: Any cheaper way to get a new charger that works with my somewhat older Macbook?
hi, the apple charger is pretty much a standard unit and there are no compatible products due to patent applications from apple preventing clones. an option or two open to you is ebay for a refurb or used pack or even an apple refurb company depending on where you are in the world. lew On 7 Apr 2012, at 21:21, Brent Harding wrote: > Hi there.

Hi there. I have an older Mac Book, the one I posted about getting its plug in the car door, and at times, I think some of the keys don't register as I think the keyboard may be starting to wear out. One problem I have is kind of self-inflicted, but this thing has probably been out of warranty for a couple years now. When I got it, there were what felt like those stickers you might use to put prices on items on each key, and those got slippery and yucky feeling over time so I removed them, but the left arrow came with it's sticker, and I couldn't get it back down. Unfortunately, in Wisconsin, the Apple Stores there are would be several hours of driving, so I'm not sure how one could put a new left arrow on. I think the little rubber thing came up with it when removing the paper thingies, but it kind of works just resting there. Is this easily fixed, and what would something like that cost if I took it to some generic place that happens to work with Mac stuff? I never used to type a real lot with this thing, but having a work experience coming up, a bad keyboard might not be such a good thing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Any cheaper way to get a new charger that works with my somewhat older Macbook?
Yeah, I just knew that there were L shaped and T shaped ones, and if you don't have the correct one, depending on the firmware in the machine, if you originally had the older one, that's all you could charge with, and I heard Apple doesn't make the old one now. Maybe I can get by with that plug, but there's probably plenty of them on Ebay. - Original Message - From: "Lewis Alexander" To: Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2012 3:25 PM Subject: Re: Any cheaper way to get a new charger that works with my somewhat older Macbook? hi, the apple charger is pretty much a standard unit and there are no compatible products due to patent applications from apple preventing clones. an option or two open to you is ebay for a refurb or used pack or even an apple refurb company depending on where you are in the world. lew On 7 Apr 2012, at 21:21, Brent Harding wrote: Hi there.

Re: getting Mac Book keyboard fixed
Hi. I've serviced older systems like this in my time and it's a little fiddly, depending on how the key came off, the mounting bosses may have bent or been damaged. as it's an early macbook, the best thing is a keyboard replacement. if you were in the UK I could source a replacement keyboard for about £35 and thin installing it, besides further testing and cleaning of the fans, etc. a macbook strip down is not as easy as it may look as you have to use special apple tools for certain areas including spreading the case and disconnecting certain parts to remove the keyboard. you have to look after kit like this as even when second hand, it's still worth a lot of money and apple parts still command a high price tag. an option for you would be to acquire an apple USB keyboard or apple bluetooth keyboard and use that as the primary keyboard. lew On 7 Apr 2012, at 21:39, Brent Harding wrote: > Hi there.

Re: Any cheaper way to get a new charger that works with my somewhat older Macbook?
from the early intel macbooks, they were the same as the recent ones, with exception of wattage ratings. where abouts are you? I can look up a specialist refurbs place in the USA who carries older components. what I could do with is the machine serial number and then go from there. the system serial can be found through going to about this mac in the apple manu and then going to more info, this opens system profiler and you can get the system serial number and model from there. cheers. lew On 7 Apr 2012, at 21:44, Brent Harding wrote: > Yeah, I just knew that there were L shaped and T shaped ones, and if you > don't have the correct one, depending on the firmware in the machine, if you > originally had the older one, that's all you could charge with, and I heard > Apple doesn't make the old one now.

Re: Remoting two Macs
I know, this is a really old thread but I'm going through my folder here and thought I would comment on dropbox if you haven't already figured this out. I saw a dropbox folder on my new mac mini but I have no idea what it was for because there was no dropbox app installed. When I installed the dropbox app downloaded from the dropbox website, it created a different dropbox folder and Oh, I did not have any accessibility issues with the client.

Very odd mail server issue
Happy holidays to all those celebrating. I am perplexed about something which has been happening almost every time I try to send mail for the first time after a significant inactive period -- say a few hours. I write a message from within Apple mail, and when I send it, a dialog comes in telling me I must enter my password. It has a box to check for "keep this password in my keychain" which I always check. Then everything is fine for a while. This happens both at work and at home. It started a few weeks ago for no apparent reason. My settings have not been changed. Any ideas? Thanks.

Frotz
Hi: I have 2 issues I am curious about. Well, only one of them is an issue. I have some old Infocomm games I'd like to play. The games are mostly in .dat files on the CD's. They will work with Frotz. The issue involves compiling with Xcode. I wanted to compile Frotz, an infocomm Z-code game interpreter. I got the tar ball and was able to successfully compile it, (at least it seems to work) using the Xcode package that came with my Snow Leopard disc. However, when I get the newest version of Xcode from the App store, I am no longer just able to go to a terminal window and use the "make" command as I did with the earlier version of Xcode. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong with the newer version of Xcode? How can i still compile this program with the newer version of Xcode? Also, has anyone written or compiled a version of Frotz, or another Z-code interpreter that works well with VoiceOver?

Re: Itines downloaded album and can't find it
Try searching for it from within the Itunes app; vis the playlist browser or in the search box. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Itines downloaded album and can't find it
What is the playlist browser and how do I get to it? I also want to delete some things that I know are on iTunes from my playing them from another website. how do I delete everything at one time instead of having to delete 25 files one by one. thanks.

Re: Itines downloaded album and can't find it
Open Itunes, and use VO navigation to explore; you'll find the playlist browser and the music table as well as the search box. If you put the right terms in the search box, you should be able to group all the files you want to delete together, provided they're all in your Itunes library. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Itines downloaded album and can't find it
:) items you download from the iTunes store are added to iTunes. In the sources table, navigate to music. It should be the first item. Now press command option F to bring you to the search field. Type in the name of the artist and or album. Now press VO command T twice to jump to the music table and there you should have the songs in the album you purchased.

Re: Frotz
I have played with Zoom some. There are a handful of resources for mac on the interactive fiction archive page. Some of the mac resources work better than others with VO.

Re: A little spellcheck before pressing send please?
Sorry for digging up this thread so late but I have over a thousand messages to look through and there is valuable information I might miss since I'm new to the Mac. Now, I have just discovered another probable source for gross miss-spellings. I am a recent owner of a new Refreshabraille display and while on my IOS device, I can tweet in contracted Braille; problem is, sometimes, VO takes what I intend to be a punctuation mark and makes it a second word or something. In any case, my text gets garbled. Thus I find these errors while proof reeding what I just entered with the Braille display's keyboard. I hadn't realized this could happen so easily so Braille users, be careful when using contracted Braille. No criticism here but just a warning that you might get bit like I almost did. Also, word mode is a good help that helps with quick and dirty spell checking. At least, I can be reasonably sure that my message will sound right with speech:).

Re: managing mail on the IPhone.
Jessica, I think your mail problem may not relate specifically to the mail iPhone app but maybe you're just getting too much mail! perhaps you subscribed to too many high volume email lists? I mean, you said the stuff you deleted isn't coming back but you're getting more new stuff. In other words, it's coming in faster than you can go through it! No mailer can really help with that. One thing I do with the mail lists is to create labels on the gmail site and set up filters to sort incoming messages out to these separate folders. Note that gmail labels become folders with IMAP clients like mail on the Mac or the iPhone. This way, your inbox will hopefully keep itself down to a dull roar and you can go into the various folders when you are ready and willing. Hope this all helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com.
