Re: Error Google drive folder is missing

2012-08-18 Thread Eric Caron

Hi Tim and others,

I contacted Google and got a call and a email.  It was all the same 
info that Tim all ready gave me.  Sadly I still can't get the Google Drive back 
up.  I never get a new installation and never get to enter my credentials 
again.  

I tried the recent suggestions including turn off at log in and it is 
acting the same way.

Thanks for tips and thoughts.

 Hello listers,
 
If anyone out there is successfully using Google Drive with Mountain 
 Lion, I'd be interested in knowing.  I have updated two macs and in both 
 cases I get the message in the subject of this email. "Error, Google Drive 
 folder is missing."
 
 I did have some trouble with Dropbox on one of the two machines and one 
 worked immediately. It took some time and lots of experimenting but I got 
 Dropbox working now on both machines. 
 
 With Google Drive I've tried every trick I can think of and nothing has 
 worked.
 
 I have tried to find the latest version as at one point it said I was 
 using a out dated version and needed to get the new one.  It didn't seem 
 to tell me where to get it though.  
 
 So I found it with Google and then tried to install with no luck.
 
 I then tried increasingly drastic steps finally completely shutting down 
 and Deleting the app.  I then deleted the folder from my Mac.  I then 
 installed again and yes the same error message shows up in the Mountain 
 Lion Extra's menu.  
 
 I'm hoping someone can at least confirm Google Drive works in Mountain 
 Lion and if possible give some tips as to how they got it working.

True so if I need the insert key can I connect a windows keyboard while

Hi,

 

Remember that Mac does not have a insert key. If you require this key, then
you will have to modify the keyboard within Windows, VMWare or on the Mac to
permit this to occur. There have been many posts on this on different lists
discussing how.

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread David Eagle
Fleksy is brilliant. It should be built into ios. For the first time since 
getting my iPhone, I feel happy about sending lots of text messages and longer 
emails. I can also now text when I am walking or out in busy environments. It 
is so much quicker and takes much less concentration than the standard on 
screen method. 
It cost me e£10. 48 when I bought it from within the app. Well worth it though.

No, the free version is only for testing. It's $4.99 for the full version.

I just got it, and love it. I just wish there were an easier way to reply to 
text messages or emails with it.

Re: Error Google drive folder is missing

2012-08-18 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi Eric,

One more thing to try.

1.  Go to your Finder.
2.  Up to the Go menu.
3.  Hold down your VO keys and go down the menu until you hear "Library", press 
return.  If your VO keys are not down at this time, the Library option will not 
be heard.
4.  Locate the Application Support folder and open it.
5.  Within that folder, locate the Google folder and open it.
6.  From within that folder, locate the Drive folder and Trash it.  Empty your 
Trash.

This hopefully should remove any certificates and other data that is binding 
your Google Drive account.  Restart your computer and begin the Google Drive 
installation process again.  Make sure that your Google Drive folder does not 
exist in your Home Directory before beginning the reinstallation.  If this 
still doesn't work, are you able to wait until Tuesday or so?  I'm out of town 
right now and have a brutal Internet connection so can't do some of the testing 
I'd like to do to assist you.

Later...

 Google Drive works perfectly for me under ML.  That message is telling you 
 that the Google Drive folder, which needs to be located in the root level

 your Menu Extras, under Preferences and Signing out.  Run Google Drive

how do I rename a file?

2012-08-18 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
This should be a basic thing to do, but I can't see how to rename a file in 
finder. I see a bunch of stuff I don't care about, like duplicate or alias, but 
nothing about renaming. Am I missing something? Thanks.

marking mail as not junk does not move it?

2012-08-18 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
In mail, I am getting a great many false positives in my junk mail. When I mark 
one as "not junk", it remains in my junk mail. Is there a way to have these 
automatically moved to my inbox, or, at the least, is there a hotkey I could 
use to move them? Thanks.

Undo in Mail Doesn't Work Very Well

2012-08-18 Thread Brandon Olivares
Hello,

This has been a problem for a while, but thought I'd bring it up now.

Sometimes I can undo a message I just deleted. However, sometimes I cannot, and 
there doesn't seem to be any rule to suggest when I can or cannot. In addition, 
and quite annoyingly, even if I do undo, sometimes the message,a after a few 
seconds, just disappears from my inbox for no reason.

Does anyone else have this problem, and is there a way to fix it, or is it just 
a bug?

Thanks,
Brandon

The free version just lets you practice, you can't do anything with the text.  
The paid version allows you to copy the text into any app, tweet, email, or 
message.

I'm looking forward to using the app mostly on my touch, because I have no 
dictation on that device.

Have you tried the free version?  I say give it a whirl.  When I first heard 
about this app, I thought, nah, it won't speed me up.  Turns out, I think it 
really does, besides it is fun to finally be able to type with my 2 thumbs 
flying around the screen.  :)

I will say 2 things.  For me personally, I would not have bought the app at 
full price.  I have Siri and dictation on my phone, and the app isn't built-in 
yet.  I understand why it isn't built-in, but it makes a difference.  Secondly, 
I miss all my smilies.  ;)

Hi Tracy,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.  I agree, having dictation and Siri, along 
with the fact that you have to copy the text where you want it make the app 
less interesting.  (And I like the emoticons, too.) :)  I hadn't even looked at 
it when it was $15, but am thinking about it at the lower price.  Maybe I'll 
spend more time practicing before I make a decision.
Cheers,
Donna

Thank you for this tip. I downloaded an opml file of my podcast subscriptions

list? Can you point me to a resource on how to build this apple script file? 
Thanks much.

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread Taylor Scott
I thought the same things.
Actually, having to coppy and paste is in my opinion it's only down
side, but it isn't the app developers fault, its a limitation of
apple's.

I don't have dictation, but even if I did, I'd still have this app.
It really is fast enough to coppy and paste, and still be faster than
trying to write out something on the normal keyboard.
I look at it as another option to dictation if you have it.
Just leave Fleksy open, and if you need to type something, use the app
switcher, write out your message, coppy, switch to the app, and paste.

I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread Ricardo Walker
Yup.

Like I've said to some before, I think $15 is a tough price point regardless of 
how great a keyboard is.  And trust me, this is great.  But, price aside, This 
is one of the most useful 3rd party apps on my iPhone.  There are times when 
dictation just isn't practical.  Like when typing confidential information or, 
in a loud or subdued environment.  I've found that the time it take to copy and 
paste my text from fleksy is negated because I'm typing up to 50% faster with 
fleksy than the regular IOS virtual keyboard.

JMO.

Anyone Experiencing Mor Firefox Nightly Build Crashes Than Usual?

2012-08-18 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all,

I just downloaded the latest build last night. It's my first one since my clean 
install of ML . Firefox is crashing within a minute of launching it. Anyone 
else experience this?

In the paid version, you can use the text for texting, emails, tweets, or 
anything else in any other app.

It does save a lot of time once you get used to it. My wife and I are both now 
using it, and already our efficiency is probably a good 7-10 times faster.

I don't even try to get the right letter, just wild guesses, and it gets it 
right 90% of the time.

Hello,

You can still do smileys, at least in my experience. The symbols are above the 
keyboard, so if you select the right symbols you can enter them, and thus a

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread Taylor Scott
Exactly, and I know some are strapped for cash, but I mean, it's $15,
and your using an iOS device.
$15 is a fast food meal, and then it's gone, this applacation saves
you time, for a long time to come.

Just giving those who are on the fince more things to think about.
 Oh, and Fleksy is now $9.99 I believe, so you missed the $4.99 sale.

So, thats what, 2 starbucks drinks? lol

 I'm looking forward to using the app mostly on my touch, because I have

 Have you tried the free version?  I say give it a whirl.  When I first
 heard about this app, I thought, nah, it won't speed me up.  Turns out,
 I
 think it really does, besides it is fun to finally be able to type with

Re: Undo in Mail Doesn't Work Very Well

2012-08-18 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I don't believe that it is a bug.  If you are using iMap, the Undo will only 
work if you are extremely quick as once you delete it, the message goes off to 
the iMap server's Trash area.  If you have your deleted messages set to go to 
both your Trash and the Server Trash, then you can move it back easier.  If you 
use Pop, those can be undeleted every time as they are brought to the local 
machine.

HTH.

 Hi Tracy,
 
 Thanks for sharing your thoughts.  I agree, having dictation and Siri,

 Maybe
 I'll spend more time practicing before I make a decision.

problem with VO in log on in ML

2012-08-18 Thread Kirsten Edmondson
Hi all, 
Since upgrading to ML two days ago, Funny things have been happening during log 
on. 
First I have to do cmd5 to switch vo on, after waiting for it to kick in for a 
while. Instead of Samantha (my default) Alex arrives and welcomes me to vo. I 
have to interact with the dialogue box and then click on a button that is my 
name. It seems to suggest myself or a guest. Then I am able to put in my 
password. It then logs in and Samantha starts. 
I have read the messages from July and have been into the users and logins 
options in system preferences, but there seems to be only me there and no way 
of asking it to have vo work or deleting anyone else. 
I have been in vo utilities and there does not seem to be a checkbox for having 
vo start automatically prior to log in-which is what I had in lion. Instead the 
first available setting is about togelling vo with cmd5. 
Can anyone help me find the setting I need to change as this whole log in 
process is quite convoluted currently. 
Many thanks,

activating links

2012-08-18 Thread Kirsten Edmondson
Hi all, 
It seems that I am no longer able to activate a link in an email for example by 
doing vo/space or enter. I have tried putting my cursor on it and selecting it 
before trying to activate it, but simply nothing happens. 
I have to copy and paste it into the address bar. 
Is this fault general, or am I doing something wrong? 
Does it have something to do with my changing my default browser from Chrome to 
Safari? 
When I did this, I did it from the browser, is there another way to tell the 
mac to use Safari as the default web browser and to be used to open links? 
Many thanks,

Re: captures and firefox question

Hi Teresa, 
Am I correct that when using this to solve captures, the way to go about it

firefox? That way I only use it for just the captures. 
Is there an alternative way of doing it?

Re: activating links

Hi Kirstyn,

The strategy I employ in order to activate links and it works every time is to 
turn on QuickNav with left and right arrows held down together, and then hit 
down and up arrows together to activate a link.  I then turn off QuickNav with 
left and right arrows held down together.  Works every time.

Exactly, and I know some are strapped for cash, but I mean, it's $15,

$15 is a fast food meal, and then it's gone, this applacation saves
you time, for a long time to come.

Just giving those who are on the fince more things to think about.
Oh, and Fleksy is now $9.99 I believe, so you missed the $4.99 sale.

So, thats what, 2 starbucks drinks? lol

It really is fast enough to coppy and paste, and still be faster than
trying to write out something on the normal keyboard.
I look at it as another option to dictation if you have it.
Just leave Fleksy open, and if you need to type something, use the app
switcher, write out your message, coppy, switch to the app, and paste.

I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Have you tried the free version?  I say give it a whirl.  When I first

I

To remove things, I've just routed my mouse to the location by pressing
VO-cmd-f5 then using the Trackpad to press down and drag my finger to the

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread Tammy

Hi,

Look nobody here cares whether you buy it or not, we're just giving our 
opinion.  We've paid the money and we have the full benefit of our 
experience using the program in it's full form.  But it's ultimately up to 
you whether you buy it.  You're the one going to be using it, and if you 
don't think it's going to save you time, then you'd be better off spending 
your money on a really nice, yet very expensive coffee or 2.  As I've 
previously said, I love the program, but I know plenty who either think it's 
too expensive, or not worth it because they can type on the normal keyboard 
pretty fast, or use siri or dictate, etc.  I wish the program could be built 
in to the op system, and that we could use it similar to emogi, as a built 
in keyboard.  It would be a better program then, but for now, it's fantastic 
app, especially if you're typing out long emails or tseeting or txting alot. 
I love that you can add favourites so they appear on the menu so you can 
text or email right from the app, and the newest update makes using numbers 
and punctuation easy.

Re: ultralingual dictionary

2012-08-18 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Dear Sarah,

Iam not quite sure whether what I had described previously is a bug as i've 
just looked at the "Go" menu to see a command+1 through to 4 shortcut keys 
listed that move you through the firs 4 items of the table. I'm still not sure 
about how helpful this is. 

As for iPhone/iPd/ version, I'm not sure. I may take a gamble and purchase a 
copy to see how it works.s

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread Brandon Olivares
Just want to point out one more thing, in case you didn't know.

The great thing is that even if it doesn't guess the right word, you can flick 
down to get other suggestions. Unless the word isn't in its built-in 
dictionary, the word you want will most definitely be there.

That is why you can just wildly guess, touching somewhere in the general 
vicinity of the letter but not really carrying how close it is, because that's 
enough to get the word to come up. Now I'm able to text just as fast, I think, 
as a sighted user.

Did you read the full instructions? That may be useful.

Shortcuts for text input

2012-08-18 Thread Lindsay Yazzolino
Hi Everyone,

I am in the process of adding additional keyboard inputs to my Mac (US Dvorak 
and US extended), and am curious as to the shortcuts that others use to cycle 
between inputs. By default, they are command space and command option space, 
but of course the former conflicts with the VoiceOver spotlight command (not 
sure about the latter). I would like to be able to efficiently type 
IPA/unicode, as well as other character sets. THanks advance for any tips!
Best,
Lindsay

Hi,

you can turn off the shortcut or, change it for launching spotlight in 
preferences/keyboard under the keyboard shortcut tab.

Re: captures and firefox question

2012-08-18 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, Kirsten,

Yes, the current nightly build is very unstable at this point. I might suggest 
you try it in a few days and see if it's stabilized at all. I jumped the gun a 
little and hadn't used it in awhile, and it is quite unstable now.

It should work to download it from the site. However, be sure the computer 
recognizes it as a firefox extension. With FF installed, it should recognize it 
properly.

I admit that my current copy is crashing consistently within a couple minutes 
at this point, but I'm going to keep trying it from time to time.

HtH,
Teresa

do route the mouse pointer before trying the drag.

Re: iTunes Gift Card Question

2012-08-18 Thread Rodney Haynie
Jane,
Yes you can. Just add your gift card to your iTunes account. The process is 
called redeem.

So you can find the Redeem link in iTunes by using the item chooser, and type 
in redeem. You might have to sign into your account first.

If you need more detailed instructions, let me know.

HTH.

Re: Podcast App for Mac

2012-08-18 Thread Esther
Hi Marc,

There's probably a better way to amend the AppleScripts, but not switching back 
to iTunes just reflects usage, I think. Originally when I used these 
AppleScripts, I loaded them into the iTunes AppleScript menu instead of the 
general AppleScript menu for the System.  Specifically, instead of putting the 
AppleScripts into the folder on my account:
~/Library/Scripts/
I put them into the folder:
~/Library/iTunes/Scripts
And I had to create the Scripts folder the first time I added an AppleScript 
under iTunes to the Library folder under my account.

The difference is that when you add scripts under a specific application, you 
access the scripts menu in the menu bar of that application, while when you add 
them to the general Library/Scripts folder you access them from the services 
menu bar (VO-M-M or Control-F8, instead of VO-M or Control-F2), and you can 
navigate to that menu from any application.  

I used to run these from iTunes, but some people like to use other applications 
on their computer while listening to podcasts, iTunes U content, or movies. So 
I switched the instructions to loading the AppleScripts to the general scripts 
folder.  That way, you don't have to be in iTunes to start and stop the 
podcast.   

I think that if you load these and use them under iTunes, using the Scripts 
menu just before the "Help" menu on the iTunes menu bar (e.g., VO-M  then 
VO-Left arrow twice to the menu), and return to normal speed from there, your 
focus returns to iTunes.

By the way, I realized that I sent you these AppleScripts off list as email 
attachments about half a year ago!  And slightly off topic,  I didn't realize 
your recent viphone "Where To?" app use question was for the iPhone, because 
the  new "pop up" menu design to email destinations only showed up in the 
latest update -- it wasn't present in the version I have on my iPhone.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

 Hi Mark,
 
 I use a couple of AppleScripts to speed up playback of tracks selected
 in iTunes and return to normal speed. iTunes itself doesn't support
 variable speed playback, but QuickTime Player, which it uses, does. So
 the scripts just pass the current position in the track to QuickTime
 Player, with the speed boost, and then back to iTunes at normal speed,
 so the track position can be kept.  I've used this method for several
 years. However, it's the older version of QuickTime, which is now
 dubbed "QuickTime 7", that has the easy access to A/V controls of
 pitch, speed, etc. that was used for the scripts, and while this still
 works (and provides different playback options -- all accessible
 through the GUI with VoiceOver), it's no longer included by default
 with operating system distributions starting with Lion; you have to
 download it separately.
 
 If you're interested, I posted instructions on the Mac-access list
 earlier this year, and you can read the post in the mail archives:
 Speeding up podcasts on the Mac:

Re: Fleksy

Hi,

You can also add words to the dictionary if you want to by flicking up after 
you've typed your word.

Just want to point out one more thing, in case you didn't know.

The great thing is that even if it doesn't guess the right word, you can 
flick down to get other suggestions. Unless the word isn't in its built-in 
dictionary, the word you want will most definitely be there.


That is why you can just wildly guess, touching somewhere in the general 
vicinity of the letter but not really carrying how close it is, because 
that's enough to get the word to come up. Now I'm able to text just as fast, 
I think, as a sighted user.


Did you read the full instructions? That may be useful.

It does save a lot of time once you get used to it. My wife and I are 
both now using it, and already our efficiency is probably a good 7-10 
times faster.


I don't even try to get the right letter, just wild guesses, and it gets 
it right 90% of the time.

No. I have both my apple id and my google account tied to messages (go to

The problem I am having is that I c an't find a way to switch accounts, so 
sending to iMessage contacts fails, but gTalk contacts works. Still, it is

Hi Esther,
Yes, it took me a while to tackle these scripts but it's not hard once you 
follow the good instructions that you provide. I will move them to the itunes 
folder and see what happens next. I assume you can assign a keyboard shortcut

Re: How do I tell Mail not to save a copy of sent emails?

2012-08-18 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I don't believe that you can tell it to stop but if you select the specific 
iMap account in the Accounts pane of Mail Prefs, then select Mailbox 
Behaviours, you can tell Mail to save the messages on the Server and to delete 
local ones upon Quitting Mail.  Hopefully that does the trick.

can't ever cut items in Finder?

Hi all,
I can copy and paste items just fine. Why, though, is cut (cmd-x) always

This seems an odd feature to be lacking. Thanks.

If I remember correctly, there is a license agreement before you can select the 
install button. So there should have been a checkbox, saying you agree,  to 
find after you pressed tab once or twice.

Maybe that will help next tine around.

Re: iTunes Gift Card Question

2012-08-18 Thread Rodney Haynie
Jane,

Don't know why that happened. I have redeemed  two gift cards on my account at 
separate times, and I had a credit card on the account as well. All purchases 
came out from the gift card balance before hitting the credit card.

The only difference was that I redeemed my card a few days before I purchased 
anything... just worked out that way... but that should not make a difference.


If anyone else knows why this happened, I hope they chime in. Otherwise, I 
would make a call to Apple on this one.

Re: can't ever cut items in Finder?

2012-08-18 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

The MacOS deals with Finder items differently than Windows and thus the Cut has 
never been available within the Finder.  If you are wishing to "Move" an item 
from one place to another, simply "Copy" with cmd-c and "Move" it with 
cmd-option-v.  Up until Lion, this option was not available to us, only 
dragging and dropping moved items from one location to another.  Now, as VO 
Drag and Drop was not always reliable, VO users, for the most part, did not 
have this functionality.  Probably this history lesson is more info than you 
needed but the School Teacher is coming out in me I guess.

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread James Mannion
I completely agree. This app is fantastic for being able to type in to
the IPhone. I truely don't think the people that see the copy and
paste into something as a deal breaker truely have not given it a
chance. It really does not take more than a few seconds to do that. It
takes longer to complain about the idea than it does to do it! I do
hope Apple does allow it to be built in, but even if they never do I
love this app and it is absolutely worth it. Besides, the copy part
takes less than 2 seconds because you bring up the menu and double tap
copy. It coppies the entire text. Then you go paste wherever. If you
are doing a text message or a new email then you don't even have to do
that much. You just double tap that choice from the menu and then
address your message and send.

Re: can't ever cut items in Finder?

2012-08-18 Thread Esther
Hi Alex,

In Lion and above cutting and pasting files is supported with the "move"  
option.  You select your file or files, copy to clipboard with Command-C, then 
move them to a new location with Command-Option-V.  For earlier version of Mac 
OS X, we used the "moveAddict" application, which did, indeed, use Command-X to 
cut and Command-V to paste.  That's still an option if you want to purchase it 
from the Mac App Store.  (There is also a free, lite version of moveAddict if 
you only want to move one file at a time.) 

I should add that I haven't been using moveAddict in Lion -- only in Snow 
Leopard -- and I didn't purchase the version from the App Store.  So I can't 
check directly on the App Store experience with this utility.  (The developer 
set up a separate VoiceOver friendly installation that you could download from 
the web site).

I'll paste in the description of pasting files from Mac OS X Hints (July 2011):
Source: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=201107211337186

Lion introduces a long-requested 'copy and move' command in Finder, similar to 
'cut and paste' in Windows Explorer. 

To move files in Finder first press Command+C to copy the selected files, then 
press Command+Option+V to move the copied files to the current folder. 


HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

You don't have to. You can double tap and hold in the edit field until
the paste button comes up on the screen. Sometimes the roter is faster
though if you don't know where the button is because sometimes swiping
to get to it makes it disappear.

 I thought the same things.
 Actually, having to copy and paste is in my opinion it's only down
 side, but it isn't the app developers fault, its a limitation of
 apple's.

 I don't have dictation, but even if I did, I'd still have this app.
 It really is fast enough to coppy and paste, and still be faster than
 trying to write out something on the normal keyboard.
 I look at it as another option to dictation if you have it.
 Just leave Fleksy open, and if you need to type something, use the app
 switcher, write out your message, coppy, switch to the app, and paste.

 I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Re: Fleksy

2012-08-18 Thread Lisette Wesseling
I bought Fleksy at the full price and think it is worth every cent. I can type 
as fast as a sighted person on my phone. On my iPad, I can have my fingers 
spread out like qwerty fashion and go really fast. I wish some smaller words 
would be ordered differently in the suggestions list (like but) but it's always 
there. I actually now choose to type on the screen instead of using my 
bluetooth keyboard. If people are having trouble with it, I suggest just trying 
to relax and not try to find the letters. Just tap away very roughly in the 
place you think the letter is, and enjoy it.

 Hi Tracy,
 
 Thanks for sharing your thoughts.  I agree, having dictation and Siri,
 along
 with the fact that you have to copy the text where you want it make the
 app
 less interesting.  (And I like the emoticons, too.) :)  I hadn't even
 looked
 at it when it was $15, but am thinking about it at the lower price.
 Maybe
 I'll spend more time practicing before I make a decision.
