Re: Hands on mac experience with google drive
Initially, this looks accessible. You won't get a link to download until you sign up for the service with your Google ID and then wait for your approval. Mine took about 45 minutes. The setup and preferences are accessible, although of course getting to the menu item is a trick, as is the case with a lot of after market things that live in your menu bar. Haven't put anything up or tried to hare yet though. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Phone: (814) 860-3194 or 888-75-BUDDY On Apr 25, 2012, at 12:35 AM, Les Kriegler wrote: > Hi Maria, > > I have not figured out how to download the software.

Re: syncing address book with google help please

Re: text documents and auto save
No real need to save, since every hour or when you close the window with the document it will be saved. To do a save as is now a two step process. 1.

Re: Menu tab for facebook
Hi, What do you mean by "making the app work well with voiceover"? What Menu tab does is show you either the mobile or the full facebook site, depending on how you've set it. There's a row of buttons if you arrow right with vo+right arrow from the html content. In this row you can see things like home, back, forward etc. The button that's the second one from the right toggles mobile and desktop versions ov the facebook site. This is good because if something doesn't work as you want it in one version, it will probably work better in the other version. /Krister 25 apr 2012 kl. 17:52 skrev Stacey Robinson: > Hi, > Can someone give me tips on using menu tab with facebook? > I have it installed and can see links for facebook such as friends and the > status button.

Re: Mobi to epub or HTML.
I too can confirm that calibre is completely inaccessible. other than commandline tools, this software is unusable. probably as the app is written with JAVA. even the installer wizard has no interaction.. that is a shame. are there any other suitable ebook apps here we can use? lew On 25 Apr 2012, at 21:10, Annie Skov Nielsen wrote: > Hi Sandi. > > Great.

Re: Mobi to epub or HTML.
hi annie, nope i thought about that when i wrote it , since i can see what is on the monitor now. I turned the monitor off so i was sure that the instructions i gave you would work with voiceover. If it is too geeky for you i might be able too make a script for you so you can say stand in your "download" folder and just have the books made there, instead of coding and copying the files too the other location like i did in the last mail, but if you have any problems let me know and i will happily help you. Note, it seems that epub files are split into chapters where mobi files are just one huge html file. here is a better example, and if you follow that it should work, however if it don't, you are welcome too mail again. in this example i am assuming that your books are in your download folder 1: stand in your books folder with the epub file or mobi file and type the following. cp file.mobi /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS 2: type ebook-convert file and a name of the folder for the book. ebook-convert file.mobi sandi Okay that was the hard part, of course now i am not sure how much bash or as it is called on a mac terminal you are used to use, but this is relatively easy, i believe i have made it so if all goes wrong and you are suffering from an anxiety attack you can just paste the commands in. :) at least that is my intention by writing it as i do. I have used it on 2 books so far and it seems to work okay, to be really honest i was about to find a hack so i could extract the files from the books i have bought before i read about the program on google, so thank you for getting me a kick where it counted:) but again write if it don't work, if you want me to explain it in danish just write me privately and ill happily do so. :) /sandi who is not in the least a geek just cause she got 8 macs in one huge cluster.

Lew, but honestly, who the heck would wanna use anything else than bash for things like that? Fine it is not perfect but as a certain person says in star wars… it got it where it counts, you could blame that we have many users who might find it a little too geeky, but we surely have geeks enough too be able too explain the proper operation of the program for these who needs more help:) and aint that what the life is about if you are a geek helping others? :) On 4/25/12, sandi sørensen wrote: > hi annie, nope i thought about that when i wrote it , since i can see > what is on the monitor now.

There's one minor change you can make, to avoid copying the book. >From your example, ebook-convert is in >/Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS, so in your downloads folder you can >do: /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS/ebook-convert file.mobi .epub (or .txt or whatever format you want it in). This avoids cluttering up calibre's directory with your books. If you do this often and don't want to type that long path, just symlink ebook-convert to somewhere on your $PATH (e.g. /usr/bin). sudo ln -s /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS/ebook-convert /usr/bin On 4/25/2012 1:37 PM, sandi sørensen wrote: > hi annie, nope i thought about that when i wrote it , since i can see > what is on the monitor now.

RSS feeds that have made new and duplicate mailboxes in my list
Hi, I have subscribed to several email lists which have made separate email boxes in my mailbox list. I would like them all to come to my in box and I would like to delete the duplicates. How do I do both? thanks in advance and have a great night. Jenny -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: RSS feeds that have made new and duplicate mailboxes in my list
On the RSS mailbox, do a VO-shift-m. The context menu has a, show in inbox, item. Hit enter on that and I believe that will have the feeds go into your inbox.

apps that help with putting references in to APA
Hi All, So here is the question. I stink at doing references in APA format and I have to write a 15 page paper with references in APA. Is there an app that you can put the info in and it would format it properly. No worries if not but thought why not ask.

OT: Any Web Designers Out Here?
Hi there, everyone. I'm hoping someone can assist with something. In a nutshell, there is a site, http://www.yourmorals.org which enables you to take surveys on fascinating and intriguing aspects of morality. After you take the surveys, there are often color-coded and otherwise graphical representations of your scores as compared to others who took the surveys. Most results are therefore inaccessible. I wrote to the webmaster and received no reply, and I wrote to the man many of whose studies are discussed at this site, Professor John Haidt. He did respond, stating that it had never occurred to him that people with "limited sight" would be able to take their surveys, that it is an interesting consideration, but that he does not think anything can be changed until they get more money for updated web design. Is this the sort of thing which is really that expensive and time-consuming? I don't know enough about it, so would appreciate off-list feedback -- I can send anyone who wants more information the correspondence in question. It's one of those things that really could be, and should be, open to us, with the technology which is at our disposal.

Re: OT: Any Web Designers Out Here?
That depends on who you go through for your web design. Their web designer and/or web design company could be quite expensive. In that case though, I would switch companies/designers, but I guess that's just another blind guy talking. On Apr 25, 2012, at 6:03 PM, Christine Grassman wrote: > Hi there, everyone.

Re: apps that help with putting references in to APA
hi. there is an app called bookends. I think you can use that program. You will need sighted assistance to register the program, but I think some of the program is accessible. best regards annie.

Re: RSS feeds that have made new and duplicate mailboxes in my list
It's the same process. Open the context menu when you are on the mailbox you want to remove with VO-shift-m. There should be a, delete mailbox, item.
