iBird
Hi guys. After Esther put the information on about iBird, i got it and am having a lot of fun with it. Here's my question, though, if anybody knows. If you want to do a search for birds in Texas and Louisiana, how do you do it? I got the check boxes checked for both states, but I couldn't find the button or whatever to tell it to list them. I did browse the list of all 900 or so, but how, with VoiceOver on, that is, do you get just those in Texas and Louisiana? The other thing is, can you get the range of the birds listed in words and not a map?

Re: iBird
I have a question as well. The information for the app stated you could search by bird sound -- but this implies there is a place in the app where one can browse bird sounds. I cannot find such a place. Any help is appreciated.

Hello, If you like bird fieldguides, all of the audubon are accessible with VO. There are some other bird guides for europe, australia, brasil, all of them completely accessible. Best, Juan.

Voiceover and Google Play Book Web reader
Hi, all, I've been trying to puzzle out Google Play for the web. Basically, the text in a Google book appears to have very strange large spaces. I've tried to press the "no justification" button with no effect. VO will not read it very well, either. It pauses between words. Has anyone had any luck with this? If you have a Google Books account, you can go to this site and see what I mean, perhaps. http://play.google.com I've tried it with Chrome and safari, with the same results.

Re: anyone use Keynote?
Are you running a two-screen setup? In other words, you have your presentor notes on your laptop screen and your regular slide are runnon on some external projector? If you have just one screen then it will only show your slide content.

On May 8, 8:54 pm, Esther wrote: Hi Philippa, Chris, and Others, I think the recommendation for presentations with Keynote is to export the presentation as a PDF file using the "Export…" option that can be selected from either the "File" menu or the "Share" menu on the Keynote menu bar, choose an output format of PDF, and then display the PDF output using the free app named "Skim". Skim has been described as "Preview on steroids". It is similar to Preview, but has additional features. One of these features is a "Presentation mode" for displaying presentation slides in PDF format created by applications such as PowerPoint, Keynote, Open Office, or TeX slide packages such as Beamer. To enter presentation mode, use the shortcut Command-Option-P, or else go to the "View" menu to select this. You can also set up your transition options with Command-Control-T. Note that presentation mode correctly displays your slides, which the full-screen mode of Preview and Skim does not. And you can read all content with VoiceOver using the PDF version of your presentation this way. This subject was recently discussed on the Mac-access list, and you can read the posted discussions for the thread, "accessing power point presentation on the mac" at the Mail Archive web site for that list. I'll point you to one of the relevant posts: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-acc...@mac-access.net/msg09136.html Read down the thread using Control-N to access the next post. If you want to read up the thread use Control-P to access the previous post. Skim is a Sourceforge project, but to find it, and most other Mac programs, do a Google search for this software at the MacUpdate site by using Command-Option-F to move to the Google search bar in Safari, then type "skim macupdate" and press return. The MacUpdate site provides standard format listings of software that includes a short description, basic information on the latest version and its release date, information on whether this is a paid or free app, and direct links to download the program and to visit the developer's site. You can also read comments about the app, and suggestions for alternatives. The MacUpdate page link for Skim is:http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24590/skim HTH.

I did find that after starting the presentation (command-option-p) that if I command-tab away from keynote and then command-tab back again VO focus seems to clear up and I can then navigate all the buttons and find the presenter's notes. Before that it was just weird and I couldn't find much of anything. Hope this works for you.

Re: iBird
I found the place, but I couldn't figure out how to complete the search. One of the tabs oo there is search at the bottom of the iPhone screen. Then not the lefthand side of the screen is the various things you can search by, at least it's the lefthand side as best I remember.

Hi, if you go to the sources table and go to the playlist you created, interact, then press VO shift M to bring up the context menu the option should be in there.

Re: How can I receive any messages that I post to this group so I know they go through?
Hi, Daniel, By default, Google doesn't send you copies of your own messages. I've found a way around this by going to the google mail site and creating a label and filter that puts all messages sent from me to various groups in those folders.

Hi there! You can also make your own address book card and in one of the menus in address book is the option to make that card your card! And when you've got that set up you can then in mail pref's under composing you can set the option to automatically bcc myself then any message you send will also go to you!

Difficulties on iPhone 4S sending iMessages as opposed to 3G text messages
Hello everyone, I have several friends who use iPhones, and I would prefer to send them iMessages as opposed to text messages, for which I pay. The problem I am having is that for some reason, I am not able to send them iMessages. I have gone into the Contacts app, as well as the Messaging app, but I can't find a place where I can specifically pick iMessage as opposed to "Text Message." I must have changed something in settings somewhere, because this used to work. I am still in the States and am using Wi-Fi only, with Airplane Mode turned on. Since I'm not having problems with FaceTime, I have reason to believe that the settings pertaining to Wi-Fi and Airplane Mode are correct. Any thoughts?

Open Office 3.4.0 not usable
Just found out about the new release so I downloaded and installed it. While some stuff in my word processing document could now be read, it was otherwise unusable.

Re: Difficulties on iPhone 4S sending iMessages as opposed to 3G text messages
The iOS device to which the message is being sent determines if it's going to be sent as a text or iMessage. If you have speak hints turned on, touch the send button and listen to the hint to find out what it is going to send as. What you may try however is to turn off iMessage, then turn it back on. Do this by going to settings, messages.

searching in iBird [was Re: iBird]
Hi Gigi and Christine, There's an extensive set of help instructions under the "help" button, but I'll try to summarize. The search button (second button of five on the bottom of the screen) brings you to a screen with different search categories as well as a search field where you can type in criteria. As you add criteria and move back to the search page, you're told how many birds match your criteria, and then you can either continue to set search criteria until you double tap the "View" button in the top right corner, or decide to start an entirely new search by double tapping the "Reset" button in the top left corner. Here's an example. Double tap the "search" button. The search categories are grouped under headings "Basic Group", "Song", "Body Related", "Flight Related", "Pattern Related", "Head Related", and "Miscellaneous". So let's say I wanted to search for birds that are observed in Texas during May, according to a particular song pattern. Under the "Basic Group" heading there's an option for "Observed State/Month". Double tap this, and on the State/Month page, first set the state to "Texas" using the picker item on the top half of the screen. Then flick down to select the month of "May" by double tapping to check this box. Once you set this combination, the heading at the top of the screen will change to "State/Month" (424). The button at the top right is "Clear All" to reset your choices on this screen, and at the top left is "Search, back button" to return to the main search screen, which will now announce "424 birds matched" for the heading at the top of the page. For this page, the "Reset" button is at the top left, and the "View" button is at the top right. Now, let's add a search by "Song Pattern", which is one of the two categories under the "Song" heading search category on the main search page. The options are "Falling", "Flat", "Rising", and "Sing-song". Each time you double tap a category, you'll get examples of this pattern as well as checking the button, which you can uncheck either by double tapping the category again, or by flicking to the button and double tapping. Each specific search screen lets you clear all search criteria with a "Clear All" button in the top right, and return to the main search screen with a "Search, back button" in the top left. In addition, once you return to the search field, the number of matched birds in the heading at the top of the page gets changed, and the entry under the search category gets amended. (For the "Observed State/Month" category this is only the number of birds, since you could have selected multiple months). So let's say I choose "Sing-song" for the song pattern and return to the search page. There are still 95 birds. I select "Song" under the "Song" heading search category, and double tap "Quack-quacking". (I'm not going to list the song types on this screen -- this is a really long list). Again, this demonstrates the song and also checks the button, and if I want to uncheck it I flick right and double tap or just double tap the category again. As before, I can use the "Clear All" button at the top right or the "Search, back button" at the top left to return to the main search screen. You can check multiple categories, before returning to the main search screen, but I'll just choose one. I now have 4 birds matched that are observed in Texas in May, with a "Quack-Quacking" song and a "Sing-song" song pattern. Each of these selections is noted as I flick through the relevant search categories. To view the matched selections, double tap the "View" button at the top right. I get entries for "Gray Catbird", "Northern Mockingbird", "Northern Shoveler", and "Reddish Egret", with brief descriptions. To actually play the song and get detailed information, double tap on a selection, then double tap the "Speaker small" button in the bottom left corner. There are multiple sample tracks for this bird, and also a list of similar sounding bird calls. If you want to just type in a search entry to add in the search field on the main search page, just double tap the "Search" button in the bottom right corner of the virtual keyboard to add it. The problem is knowing what categories to use. If I type in "red", the matched entries go down to 1 bird (the "Reddish Egret". To remove my typed search keyword I have to flick to the "clear text" button in the search box and double tap to remove it. Hope this helps. I learned on one of the free, lite versions for iBird that had many fewer entries! I don't know how to get the range description if it isn't in the detailed description.

Re: Difficulties on iPhone 4S sending iMessages as opposed to 3G text messages
Hello Alberto, Normally, I would agree with you, but, per your suggestion, I went into the settings and still did not find what I wanted. iMessaging is turned on. Nor did I didn't learn anything helpful when I clicked on the link that took me to the part of the manual that talked about the iMessaging service. So I still find myself wondering why I am only being permitted to send text messages, though iMessaging is turned on and my phone is turned off.

Re: Open Office 3.4.0 not usable
That's too bad too. When I'm on Linux using Orca, Libreoffice generally works pretty well. To me, LibreOffice and OpenOffice are the most powerful non Microsoft office products out there. iWorks is 3 years old and God knows if it is going to be updated or not and with OpenOffice inaccessibility, I gues if one is serious about office productivity, then she better either stick to Windows or try out Linux. I don't get the impression that the iWorks suite is really good for heavy office power users.

There's a thought, Ricardo, though I am not optimistic. If that were a criterion, then other people's phones or iPads would need to be constantly transmitting this info to the network.

Re: searching in iBird [was Re: iBird]
Hi Gigi, I don't know how to get range information from the map display that shows up when you choose range. If you double tap the "Birdipedia" button at the bottom the screen for the detailed entry on a specific bird, there's a Wikipedia type description page that includes a verbal description of range. It appears after a long list of links for the conservation status, scientific classification, and the binomial name. There's probably an optimal way to navigate to the star of the verbal description. Also, another important piece of information is that the detailed page for each bird contains more buttons at the bottom of the screen that you can access with a three finger scroll to the right to reach the second page of buttons. This information was posted at the AppleVis site in an app review of iBird United Kingdom and Ireland. I'm going to cc: this post to the viphone list, since there was a question just earlier about setting up a site for tutorials on how to use apps. On the macvisionaries list I'd use the Mail Archive search function to locate these posts, but Mail Archive functions for the viphone list only got turned on in mid-April, so it's only searchable for content back to then. And I didn't cc: my earlier post (listed below your post) on searching in iBird to that list. HTH. Cheers, Esther On May 10, 2012, at 10:56 AM, Eugenia Firth wrote: > Thanks Esther.

Re: searching in iBird [was Re: iBird]
Hey Esther thank you for the thorough lessons which you share so generously. You don't get paid enough for this job (smile). In your time with this app have you figured out how one easily adds a bird to favorites? thanks so much for all your sharing on this list. Robin From: Esther Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2012 2:35 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: searching in iBird [was Re: iBird] Hi Gigi and Christine, There's an extensive set of help instructions under the "help" button, but I'll try to summarize. The search button (second button of five on the bottom of the screen) brings you to a screen with different search categories as well as a search field where you can type in criteria. As you add criteria and move back to the search page, you're told how many birds match your criteria, and then you can either continue to set search criteria until you double tap the "View" button in the top right corner, or decide to start an entirely new search by double tapping the "Reset" button in the top left corner. Here's an example. Double tap the "search" button. The search categories are grouped under headings "Basic Group", "Song", "Body Related", "Flight Related", "Pattern Related", "Head Related", and "Miscellaneous". So let's say I wanted to search for birds that are observed in Texas during May, according to a particular song pattern. Under the "Basic Group" heading there's an option for "Observed State/Month". Double tap this, and on the State/Month page, first set the state to "Texas" using the picker item on the top half of the screen. Then flick down to select the month of "May" by double tapping to check this box. Once you set this combination, the heading at the top of the screen will change to "State/Month" (424). The button at the top right is "Clear All" to reset your choices on this screen, and at the top left is "Search, back button" to return to the main search screen, which will now announce "424 birds matched" for the heading at the top of the page. For this page, the "Reset" button is at the top left, and the "View" button is at the top right. Now, let's add a search by "Song Pattern", which is one of the two categories under the "Song" heading search category on the main search page. The options are "Falling", "Flat", "Rising", and "Sing-song". Each time you double tap a category, you'll get examples of this pattern as well as checking the button, which you can uncheck either by double tapping the category again, or by flicking to the button and double tapping. Each specific search screen lets you clear all search criteria with a "Clear All" button in the top right, and return to the main search screen with a "Search, back button" in the top left. In addition, once you return to the search field, the number of matched birds in the heading at the top of the page gets changed, and the entry under the search category gets amended. (For the "Observed State/Month" category this is only the number of birds, since you could have selected multiple months). So let's say I choose "Sing-song" for the song pattern and return to the search page. There are still 95 birds. I select "Song" under the "Song" heading search category, and double tap "Quack-quacking". (I'm not going to list the song types on this screen -- this is a really long list). Again, this demonstrates the song and also checks the button, and if I want to uncheck it I flick right and double tap or just double tap the category again. As before, I can use the "Clear All" button at the top right or the "Search, back button" at the top left to return to the main search screen. You can check multiple categories, before returning to the main search screen, but I'll just choose one. I now have 4 birds matched that are observed in Texas in May, with a "Quack-Quacking" song and a "Sing-song" song pattern. Each of these selections is noted as I flick through the relevant search categories. To view the matched selections, double tap the "View" button at the top right. I get entries for "Gray Catbird", "Northern Mockingbird", "Northern Shoveler", and "Reddish Egret", with brief descriptions. To actually play the song and get detailed information, double tap on a selection, then double tap the "Speaker small" button in the bottom left corner. There are multiple sample tracks for this bird, and also a list of similar sounding bird calls. If you want to just type in a search entry to add in the search field on the main search page, just double tap the "Search" button in the bottom right corner of the virtual keyboard to add it. The problem is knowing what categories to use. If I type in "red", the matched entries go down to 1 bird (the "Reddish Egret". To remove my typed search keyword I have to flick to the "clear text" button in the search box and double tap to remove it. Hope this helps. I learned on one of the free, lite versions for iBird tha
Re: Open Office 3.4.0 not usable
When I first heard that OpenOffice was really good with OS X, it was probably during the Snow Lepeard days; it was an older podcast so when I began hearing about all these breakages, I was most disppointed. I'm also somewhat dismayed that it has been over nine months and it's still broken. Mountain Lion will be along fairly soon and then where will OO be? Probably require even more retrofitting to get things right. In the meantime, it works really good with Orca on Linux.

HI All, I am having a problem with vmware fusion and my windows 7 ultimate virtual machine after updating to Max osx 10.7.4 all I get when I try to open the virtual machine is the following messages Unable to retrieve kernel zone sizes Failed to initialize monitor device and Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to . Has anyone else had this issue since updating to 10.7.4 if so where you able to fix this if so how . I even deleted my virtual machine and reienstalled it but still the same result.
