Tagging imported audiobooks in iTunes

2012-08-28 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Dear Listers,

I've imported a couple of audiobooks into iTunes. They are actually recordings 
of classic series dramas from BBC radio4. I've gone into "get info" and have 
spent a couple of hours trying to tag the episodes so that I can find them 
under books categories in the source list of iTunes. Although I have given them 
the genre audiobook, I can't find the field for author so I have put the 
authors name in the artist field. For some reason though, the books are still 
listed in the music library but do not feature in the book library. And when I 
go into browser under "books', I can't find them by author. They do show though 
under compilations as I checked that box because they are two episodes of 
Buddenbrooks. Why can't I find the field for author in get info? Does it not 
exist for audiobooks? Any help is greatly appreciated.

By the way, anybody recorded the first episode of Buddenbrooks? I'd missed it, 
and iti is no longer available on the iPlayer.

Best wishes

Andrew

A missing box in Skype.

Hello All.

Last evening, I wanted to change my caller Id in skype so if I called a mobile 
or land line, my mobile number would show up. But I could not locate that bit 
of information and was wondering if that had been taken away. Does anyone know?

Re: Accidentally selecting windows

2012-08-28 Thread Robert
Thanks Gigi,

I will certainly keep trying - I think they price Macs to ensure that you 
can't abandon it after a few gos!

When using the screen visually I have "white on black" turned on, and use 
full screen magnification to zoom in a fair way.  I have tried trawling the 
various settings, both in "Accessibility" and "Trackpad", but have so far 
drawn a blank.

Thanks,

Using markers in GarageBand

2012-08-28 Thread Gavin Grundlingh
Hi all,

I'm not sure if this has already been brought up here, but is there a way of 
using markers accessibly in GarageBand? I found the "Add Marker" item on the 
"Edit" menu, but it always seems to be dimmed. Also, can I move between 
inserted markers, select from one marker to another, etc.? This would really 
make my song editing and recording a lot easier.

Re: 1password accessibility

2012-08-28 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Iona and Christer,

I just found a shortcut key in the user's guide that is worth knowing about. 
Instead of finding your toolbar, interacting, finding the 1password button and 
hitting it, it's quicker to just hit option command backslash. Remember that 
command backslash fills your login? Adding the option key to that opens the 
extension in safari.
Hth,
Paul.

Yorufukurou and Twitmarker

2012-08-28 Thread Steve Holmes
The latest version of this fine twitter client now sports tweet marker support 
which essentially bookmarks your last read tweet so that other twitter clients 
can pick up at that point.  This feature works beautifully when I leave my spot 
in yorufukurou and get on my iPod with tweet list.  Tweetlist picks up right 
where I left off on the Mac.

My question is when I come back to the Mac after reading a bunch of tweets on 
the iPod and note that tweetlist's tweet marker support works fine.  When I 
come back into yorufukurou, I either get positioned at the top of the timeline 
list or at the last unread tweet according to my last use of this program.  
What I'm trying to find out is how I might position the cursor on the 
bookmarked tweet according to tweet marker regardless of yorufukurou's 
read/unread statuses.

Anybody have ideas or experience with this?

RE: update on sort headers in mail

2012-08-28 Thread Bill Holton
Hi.

When I contacted apple accessibility they researched it and discovered there
was no way to change the order the columns appeared in the window except by
using the classic view.  They said  they would add it to the list, but the
more people who ask for this, I’m guessing the higher it will get on their
list.  I don’t mind using classic view, but I hate the idea of basing my
work flow on a feature that may disappear with the next release.

Check out the post I just did about VO to caps lock key.  The same

podcast I did may also be helpful to you.  The name of the app is

Subject: Caps Lock to VO keys and more

Hello listers,

I have long wanted the VO keys "Control Option"  to be available as the caps
lock key.  this would allow one finger to hold down the keys.  Also, the
location of the Caps Lock key is ideal for reaching many keys that need to
be pressed with the Voice Over keys.

Using the caps lock key as the VO modifier would dramatically reduce the
times I find my fingers contorted trying to press multiple keys all over the
keyboard.  

For those of us who type with our fingers on the home row this allows us to
use the VO modifier while keeping our hands ready to continue typing.

I'm pleased to let you know that this is now possible.  Thanks to Takayama
Fumihiko, the developer of KeyRemap4Macbook.  this application in
conjunction with another application by the same developer allows a Mac user
to remap the caps lock key as the "Control and Option" keys pressed
together.

The other application is called PCKeyboardHack.  These two apps and a file
created for VO users makes this possible.

Although a write up of this process would probably be more efficient  for
most of us, that is not my strength.  Instead, I have provided a link below
to a podcast that walks through the set up.

In addition below are links needed to obtain the applications and the
specially constructed xml file.

Finally, I have provided links to some additional help documentation 

The application developer responded to my request for this capability within
hours of my written request.  I have also been asked to contact again if
there are any other ways the application can help blind users.

This was such a nice response.  I'm still amazed as I have written to Apple
asking for this every few months or so, only getting back the standard
answer,"thank you for your suggestion." .

I'm so grateful to now have this ability. 

Also, please be aware that this application can also remap other keys.  For
example you could make the command key on the right of your space bar a
Control key giving you another set of Voice Over Keys.
 KeyRemap4Macbook also creates a num pad on your regular keyboard.  this
makes it possible to use num pad commander on a standard keyboard.  

This is covered in a excellent post by Ester on the Mac-Access.net list. 

One gentle reminder.  This is donation ware so if you use this as much as I
do please support this developer.  and, as we come up with more ways this
application can help and as the OS changes we will want this developer to
support us.

This was the most challenging podcast I have created so far.  If you
see a need for revision please let me know. 

I will be submitting this podcast to applevis.com .  In the meantime here is

Re: Do Apple Make a DSL modem & Router

2012-08-28 Thread Chris Blouch
I don't think so. A lot of that stuff is specific to the service 
provider. So you get xyz cable in and ethernet out. Then you run the 
Ethernet to the Airport. That gets Apple out of making a jillion 
variations of their device.

Re: safari

2012-08-28 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
You have 2 options.
It appears from testing I have done that the command does not work if there are 
no downloads in the list. In other words, if you have nothing downloading and 
you have your settings set that you clear the list after successful download 
then it would be empty and the command would not work.
But you can always go to the downloads button in the toolbar at the top of the 
screen.

I think you are best served with rules for this, since smart mailboxes don't

So look into creating rules that accomplish what you need

Re: Caps Lock to VO keys and more

2012-08-28 Thread Alex Hall
I'd like to add my thanks for this hack. I just got it working and I think 
it'll be a massive help in using the mac. Of course, I no longer have a caps 
lock key, but I rarely use it anyway and I could always map another key to it. 
Thanks again!

Re: dictation success!

You can say "show me what to say".

Also if speakable items is on there is a speech feedback window and there is a 
menu where you can go to speech comandslist. IT is kind of a table with 
expandable items.

 These are commands you can give, like "what time is it" or "open iPhoto". 
 You can even select buttons shown in the currently open dialog just by 
 speaking them. If you are at all familiar with Windows speech recognition, 
 it's like dictation is the text input part of that and speakable objects 
 is the other part that accepts commands for system operations.

Re: Installing OS X on a Target Disk

I don't see why not. In target mode their machine acts just like an

off of it just fine. Once installed you should also be able to boot that 
machine up in the normal way as well.

Re: favorites bar in apple mail

2012-08-28 Thread Christina C.
That worked perfectly as long as I was in full screen mode.  Thanks.  I was 
going to reply  to sender but I could not get it to work.  Then I decided to 
send to entire list to note that I could only get this to work if I was in full 
screen mode.  I thought some  of you might find that helpful.

Thanks!

is it safe and accessible to resize the mac partition?

2012-08-28 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
The subject says it all. Can I safely (no data loss) and accessibly resize my 
mac partition? Right now windows has 200gb and mac os has 300gb, but I'm 
considering switching it to be 400 and 100 since I want to move all my data 
(including my 85gb of media) to the mac partition. If I can do this with no 
risk to the existing data on either partition, how is it done? Thanks.


Have a great day,

Lastpass Accessibility

2012-08-28 Thread Steve Holmes
How accessible is lastpass on the mac and IOS devices? Have people on
the list here tried it at all? So far, I found the website to be a bit
tricky to deal with from Firefox on a yucky windows machine.  I won't
be back to my mac until this evening.

Any ideas or comments?

moving folders behaves inconsistently

2012-08-28 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
I have noticed something odd and annoying when moving items around. Sometimes, 
I paste and the item goes in the same location as where I am, but sometimes it 
is placed inside a folder to which I am pointing. Fo instance, I copy a folder 
called books with cmd-c and open the ~ folder (home folder). I am focused on, 
say, downloads, and hit cmd-option-v, and the books folder is pasted in 
downloads instead of just in my home folder. Other times books goes where I 
want it. What is going on here, and how can I know which the mac is going to 
do? Thanks.

:)  because, sometimes I need to reply to the sender of the message directly.  
If I just use the regular reply command I will reply to the entire group, for 
example the entire macvisionaries group.  :)  Sometimes it's just more

Re: Lastpass Accessibility

2012-08-28 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, Steve,

LastPass is pretty accessible, though VO doesn't let you know when you have 
messages from the app. Any time you deal with forms or passwords, you'll have 
to use VO-command-f to find the LastPass frame, then read the choices it offers 
for saving passwords. I've just gotten into the habit of checking for the frame 
each time I do any sort of text input. I only use the website when I want to 
look up a password. The extension gives you an HTML window, which you interact 
with, then find the vault link, then find the search function. Just past the 
end of a table is a link for editing that entry.

HtH,
Teresa

Hi, Christina,

In the message content area, VO to the headers group and interact with it. Go 
to the header text and interact with it, also. Find the "from" address and VO 
left to the beginning of it. Bring up the contextual menu with VO-shift-M and 
choose "copy address". At this point you can paste it into the "to" field of 
your reply message.

Hi all,

I have figured it out.

1. go to all headers

2. go to the address of the sender, not the header but the exact address.
3. go to the VO shift M shortcut menu.
4. the option is now called "send new email". It replaced the option "reply to 
sender".
hth,

Hi,

You ask if anyone can think of a good reason not to turn quick nap on

I think I have one.

It really annoys me when I'm trying to edit a form fields on the page and quick 
knob is interfering with my editing.

I find I have quick nap turned off most of the time and use trackpad gestures 
to get around.

However, when I do need to do some more precise navigation, I turn it on but 
just for those instances.

Re: moving folders behaves inconsistently

2012-08-28 Thread Brandon Olivares
As far as I know, if you are focused on a folder, then the pasted item will go 
within that folder. However, when you first open a directory, nothing is 
selected, so you should usually be safe.

Re: reply to sender

2012-08-28 Thread Christina C.
H, I guess there is no real "reply to sender" anymore.  :(  I thought I'd 
use reply to all and then just delete the macvisionaries from the to but that 
doesn't work for me because it still does not add the sender's address to the 
to field or the cc field.  I guess the only thing is to copy the sender's 
address.  Then click reply and delete the macvisionaries address and replace it 
with the sender's address in the to field.  Oh well, darn.

Re: Do Apple Make a DSL modem & Router

2012-08-28 Thread agent086b
Thanks, that is a pity. I now have a Billion DSL modem and wireless 
router. When it dies was hoping to replace with an Apple product.

I don't want to purchase a new separate modem as well as a router.

I don't think so. A lot of that stuff is specific to the service 
provider. So you get xyz cable in and ethernet out. Then you run the 
Ethernet to the Airport. That gets Apple out of making a jillion 
variations of their device.

Re: Tune In Radio for Mac?

if you go to tunein.com, you will find everything there in a web interface,

If you have it set up on your iOS device and use the same login as you have on

Re: reply to sender

2012-08-28 Thread Christina C.
that method does not work because it opens a brand new blank e-mail.  I know 
this is fussy, but I did not want a blank message, I wanted it to have the 
prior message info.  So, either way, it requires copying and pasting.  I either 
need to copy and paste the body of the message or paste the sender's e-mail 
address over the list group address.  I am not sure if I am making sense.  The 
reply to sender was much more convenient.  It was a true reply to the message, 
the new message option is just a new blank message with the sender's address in 
the to field.

Re: Caps Lock to VO keys and more

2012-08-28 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Mary,

If you follow my podcast you will no longer have a caps lock key but 
rather a very convenient Voice Over key.  If you want your caps lock back you 
can either go to the extras menu in Mountain Lion for KeyRemaper4Macbook  and 
press the preferences button and then you can either temporarily turn off the 
key remap with a check box or uncheck it permanently.

For me this is a non issue as I almost never use the caps lock key and can use 
the shift key when needed.  The advantage of having the caps lock act as the 
voice over modifier key is infinitely more important to me.  I keep finding 
ways why this works so well.  for example opening a disclosure triangle is now 
so much easier.  I just holde the caps lock key down with my left little finger 
and tap the \ key with my other little finger.  I never take my hands off the 
home keys.  In the past my left hand had to go all the way down to the Option 
Control keys on the left side completely stopping my typing flow. 

I still have a lot of muscle memory that causes me to use the old VO Keys but 
little by little I am increasing my speed by taking advantage of the caps lock. 
 It is great!  another key I now use more often is vo w and VO w twice.  This 
is the word and the spelling of a word.  with caps lock and w it is fast and 
easy.  with standard vo keys on the bottom left I had to reach my right hand 
way over to the w key, and this was quite a contortion just to hear what word I 
was on, I don't need to do this any more.  I do it all with my left hand never 
leaving the home row keys.

Hope this info helps.

Re: Caps Lock to VO keys and more

2012-08-28 Thread agent086b


Hi, is there a keystroke in VO that will pass the next key pressed to 
the computer by passing VO? There is such a keystroke in some PC screen 
readers. This would mean you could bypass VO and use the caps lock.

Thanks.

Control-Option-Tab will ignore the next key pressed and send it directly to the

GarageBand's Being a Royal Pain In The Butt

2012-08-28 Thread Gavin Grundlingh
Hi all,

OK, yet another GarageBand question. I'm trying to record on multiple tracks at 
the same time, but GarageBand seems to behave as though I only want to record 
on a single track at a time. I've enable multitrack recording in the project, 
and set each track up to use a different input device. At first, I thought the 
fact that I was selecting stereo inputs for both tracks was what was causing 
the problem, so I tried selecting mono inputs for the tracks, to no avail. I've 
just double-checked, and the "enable record" check box for each of the tracks 
is checked. What am I doing or not doing that's causing this to not work? I 
remember it working for me in the past.

My apologies for cluttering the list with GarageBand-related stuff. It's just 
that, unfortunately, Ricardo's GB podcasts don't cover everything I need to 
know.
