Re: Barcode scanner?

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi Gail
Welcome to the list yourself. I meant to Seeing Eye twice since we were in 
class together.  My current dog, Elana,  is
9 Years old now. How have  you been these days?


I recognized your email immediately.
My dog was real sick last August, she had liver problems. However, after going 
into a critical care place, she got better. It appears that it hasn't hurt her 
at all, but she has to eat special food. She is on a diet called GD which 
stands for geriatric diet. I didn't know they made one of those.
I had heard of everything else like heart diet kidney diet et cetera.
Please let me Know how things are going for you these days.
My current dog, by the way, is a Labrador/golden cross. She could pass for 
yellow lab.
Some people however, think that she is a golden retriever. Go figure. My vet 
however thought that she was a purebred lab until I told him otherwise.

Re: any accessible Facebook programs for OS X Lion?

Try pressing control-f to bring up the app. It runs in the menu bar so 
that's probably why you can't see it.

Re: Discovered New Voices For Mac

[Scott Berry]

I do not find it hard to use on Windows.  But you may want to contact 
them and ask them to make their site more accessible.  sometimes a 
request will go a long way.

got an unauthorized page when I tried to go to the link they provided

it worked.  Finally, once I started downloading the zip file of my

which for a 100 something odd meg file, is utterly crap!  I should be

God help me!, if the interface to input my license isn't accessible.
We'll find out.

I listened to a few. Personally I find them a bit choppy and not
as smooth as the voices you can get with the mac by default.
Still, synthesized speech is one of the most subjective things in
the blindness community, so to each their own, I say.

On a practical note, I had trouble getting the sound files to

vo-right to the actual link (not the image), route the mouse with
vo-cmd-f5, and click with vo-shift-space. Sometimes I could just
right click and select download file, but that didn't work much of
the time.

Mike Arrigo's forum posts about his Android Chat that he does
weekly and he mentioned about these voices for the Android called
Cereproc. Well, for those of you that wish there were more
alternatives besides Nuance, Cepstral, and Acapela, these same
Cereproc voices for the Android are also available for the Mac. I
went to their website to see how good these voices sound and, in
my opinion, they beat both Nuance and Acapela. They are really
good! As a matter of fact, if I can't, ahem, find a torrent for
them, I'm thinking of buying a few of them. The price is pretty
affordable, about $42 US. I don't know how much that converts to
in Canadian dollars, but I really like them and want to get them.
So thanks Mike for introducing me to these voices. To see how
well these voices sound, go to http://www.cereproc.com/en/osxvoices

Re: using the braille pen 12

[Scott Davert]

Hi Chenelle.
one thing you will probably need to become familiar with on the
braille pen is the rotor commands. These come in handy if you ever
need to edit what you've typed. This is because the only way to
advance the cursor with the Braille Pen is to move the rotor. space
with dots 2-3 and space with dots 5-6 will cycle you through the
different options that you can navigate by. Then, to move to the next
element that the rotor is set to, such as the next character, press
psace with dot 6. Space with dot 3 will move you to the previous
character. To select something (the same as the double tap on the
touch screen), press space with dots 3-6.

Hope this helps,
Scott

Re: Discovered New Voices For Mac

These sound very good.  Is there an option to purchase more than one voice at a

Re: Picking the brains of you Mac veterans

[Mike Arrigo]

If that's a power PC laptop, 10.5 is as far as it will go. Starting 
with snow leppard, it only works on Intel processors. Yes, voiceover 
has come a long way since then. Actually, I think snow leppard was the 
biggest set of improvements. That's when the track pad commander, table 
reading, web spots, and probably several other features were introduced 
that I'm foregetting at the moment.

Original message:
I got a new power adaptor and a new battery and this puppy is running 
like a champ with Leopard. I'm wondering if it is upgradable to Snowy. 
I'll have to check that tomorrow on the Apple Support pages. How far 
VoiceOver has come since 10.5 is utterly amazing. It puts things into 
perspective for sure. For those of you who complain about what's wrong 
with Mountain Lion, try working with Leopard and see how much Apple 
accessibility has done with the product since then.

Re: Infovox iVox adds genuine children's voices to OS X

[Esther]

Hi All,

You can find samples of the new voices at the Assistiveware Infovox
product page for demoing voices:
http://www.assistiveware.com/product/infovox-ivox/voices

The fastest way to navigate to the links for the new child voices is
to use item chooser (VO-I) and type in "boy" or "girl". Alternatively,
you can navigate to "English - American English" and find the new
voices for "Josh (boy)" and "Ella (girl)", and then navigate to
"English - British English" and find "Rosie (girl)" and "Harry
(boy)".  Just VO-Space on the links to play the samples.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

mac restarted again...

[Alex Hall]

Hi all,
I have been in windows since Thursday. I booted back into osx yesterday and 
things were fine. I left this morning for a couple hours and came back to find 
my mac had, once again, restarted itself. I did the power cord trick suggested 
last week and had no problems until now, though, as I said, I was in windows 
for a few days. This isn't looking good... To remind you all, it's a 2011 Mini 
with 2gb ram in a cool room. I have no Apple Care, and the nearest Apple store 
is about two and a half hours away.

Re: any accessible Facebook programs for OS X Lion?

Yes. It basically shows you the Facebook site, either Mobile or Desktop 
version, without having to go to Safari first.

Re: mac restarted again...

Hi.
Have you resetted your PR ram? Have you tried to repair your disc  and 
permissions? Have you checked your powersupply? Sounds more like your 
powersupply is damaged.

Press Command-f and enter search term;
Navigate down and interact with scroll area;
Interact with table:
Find desired result;
Bring mouse to VO cursor and do a mouse click (VO-Shift-Space);
Stop interacting with table and scroll area;
Navigate up to next scroll area;
Interact with scroll area, Layout area, and Layout item;
You will be on the selected cell;
Press VO-Shift-T to identify the cell.

Re: mac restarted again...

I did repair permissions, and there were only ten or so errors. I am not sure 
how to check my power supply, but windows never rebooted mysteriously so I 
don't think it is that. Remind me how to reset this PRam again? Thanks.

Re: mac restarted again...

[Søren Jensen]

Keep reparing your permissions until it shows no errors.
You restart your ram by holding down: p, r, command and option right after you 
hear the start up chime. Keep holding those keys until the chime has heard the 
third time, and release the keys and it will boot up.

Re: mac restarted again...

[Cheryl Homiak]

Well, if Windows doesn't reboot and still stayed up and useable, one would 
think it would be a software or setting problem on your Mac side rather than a 
power supply problem. But I seem to remember that you've checked all your 
settings and maybe you reinstalled the Mac side too but I don't remember that 
for sure. The only thing I can think of, short of taking it somewhere, would be 
to completely reinstall everything - Mac, Windows, etc. and reinstall it all. 
But I know that's not a welcome suggestion given that one still has to have 
help to install Windows from a sighted person. Is there anything that you use 
or have plugged in when using the Mac side that you don't for the Windows side? 
Of course, it could be something on your logic board; I don't know if that 
would also affect both sides or not.

still no luck with Audible.com

[Donna Goodin]

Hi all,

Tried Betos suggestion of uninstalling and reinstalling the Audible App, but 
still am not able to sign in to the mobile store?  Beto, what exactly did you 
do?  Do you have the latest version of the app?  I ask because now you cannot 
enter the store directly from the app, so I'm confused about why uninstalling 
would fix the problem.  Appreciate any thought/experiences anyone can pass 
along.
Best,
Donna

Re: mac restarted again...

[Alex Hall]

I'm about to reset the PRam, so we'll see if that helps. As to your questions, 
I have not reinstalled anything, and there is nothing different (in hardware) 
when I run windows. Besides, I have it set to not come on after a power 
failure, so if it were a power problem it would just shut down and not restart 
with a problem report. Of course I'd rather not reinstall everything 
(*shudders*) but if the problem persists I may have to. At least it wouldn't 
cost me anything.

Re: External Blu Ray DVD/CD CDR or CDRW

[Marc Rocheleau]

So um... no one has any recommendations at all? I don't mean to be a
pest about it but I really need this for my iMac and have no clue
where to start. As mentioned in previous messages, I am looking for an
optical drive with Blu ray and CD read/write capability. I am assuming
any device that can read/write blue ray can do normal DVDs just fine
too?

Any help would still be grately appreciated.

You can't get to the Audible store from the mobile ap.

Right, the problem isn't that I'm not using the correct sign-in info, it's that

[Maccessibility] Infovox iVox adds genuine children’s voices to OS X

[Maccessibility]

Title: [Maccessibility] Infovox iVox adds genuine children’s voices to OS X
Maccessibility has posted a new item, 'Infovox iVox adds genuine children’s voices to OS X'


  Amsterdam, November 5, 2012 – Today AssistiveWare® and Acapela Group announced the release of Infovox iVox 3.1, which brings the first four genuine, natural-sounding children’s voices to Mac OS X. In addition, the update adds three new male voices. These voices work with any Mac application, including Apple’s VoiceOver, TextEdit, Preview, Safari, Adobe’s [...]

Re: Infovox iVox adds genuine children's voices to OS X

[Esther]

Hi All,

Just to add to the previous post, you can also hear samples of the new
U.S. Micah voice and the new Australian Tyler voice if you navigate
through the other entries at the Infovox sample voices page. However,
the background for developing more children's voice offerings that
appear in this version 3.1 Infovox release is Assistiveware's work
with providing voices for autistic children and other children with
speech disabilities. This is another instance where iOS devices and
apps have provided more portable and far more affordable solutions to
individuals with disabilities.  Here are the (shortened) links to the
earlier development page (that includes other links to the voices with
different speech samples):
• A groundbreaking project: two authentic British children's voices
http://bitly.com/L0gk9t
• A groundbreaking project part two: two authentic American children's
voices
http://bitly.com/Omwpt4

HTH. Cheers,

Esther

Re: External Blu Ray DVD/CD CDR or CDRW

[Esther]

Hello Marc,

I don't use Blu-ray drives on my Mac, but if I were looking for such a
drive and wanted to ensure compatibility with my Mac, I'd check Other
World Computing, and either buy directly from them, or check what
standard products in this category they offer.  You should not assume
that external burners will automatically be recognized in your Mac
applications in the same manner that native drives are.  OWC has a
history of checking out and supporting these functions on the Mac.  A
Google search of "owc bluray" brought up this link:
http://eshop.macsales.com/search/external+blu+ray

You can probably follow up with direct queries to OWC. And there are
likely list users who use DVD and Bluray devices who can help you more
with specifics.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

 I have been in windows since Thursday. I booted back into osx yesterday

 trick suggested last week and had no problems until now, though, as I

Re: still no luck with Audible.com

[Cheryl Homiak]

Okay, i've done this just now and will tell you what to do step by step.

1. Go to audible.com.
2. Tap "visit the mobile store
3. Tap the sign in to audible link.
4. If you see a "return to webpage" link or button, tap that. If instead  you 
see an address with signin.htm on the end but don't see form fields for your 
username and password, tap reload. i'm giving both instructions because it 
seems to vary. I'm sure there are reasons for the variance but don't have time 
to sort that out now.
5. Now you should see the form fields and should be able to sign in. I did this 
successfully.

If this still doesn't work for you, email and explain what you are seeing on 
the page and what step youare on and I'll try to clarify.

Re: still no luck with Audible.com

[Tammy]

Hi,

Are you saying you can't sign in to the store or the app?  To get to the 
store you have to go via safari, and if you can't sign in on the app, you 
might have to authorize your phone so you can play books on the app.

Hi all,

Tried Betos suggestion of uninstalling and reinstalling the Audible App, but 
still am not able to sign in to the mobile store?  Beto, what exactly did 
you do?  Do you have the latest version of the app?  I ask because now you 
cannot enter the store directly from the app, so I'm confused about why 
uninstalling would fix the problem.  Appreciate any thought/experiences 
anyone can pass along.

Hi,

Are you signing in in the settings tab on the app?  I just signed out and 
then back in with no problems by going to settings and then right flicking 
to the username field, and then finding the pw field and doubletapping it, 
typing in my password and then go is in the bottom right of the keyboard 
where return usually is.

Wow, I found the new children's voices very impressive!

What are people's experiences using Infovox iVox for Mac?  Is it more or less

Re: Infovox iVox adds genuine children's voices to OS X

I haven't had the chipmunk bug. I use Heather and Ryan constantly and really 
like them. I've also used some of the Spanish and British voices. In fact, I 
almost never use any of the Apple voices; even have the login screen set up for 
an infovox voice.

You can.
Just go to the system trey in bootcamp and select the bootcamp as the startup

Re: boot camp

[Chris Bruinenberg]

the only way i know how to do it is either virtualize it or reboot with 
bootcamp.
You could do the startup option under system preferences.
Hope that helps.

without passing through router?

[Ioana Gandrabur]

Hi,

Just wondering if it is possible to connect 2 macs on a wired network directly 
with a cable. THe router is very far away from both to be close to the dsl plug 
on the wall. I thought that just connecting with a cable should do it since I 
did this with pc for migration assistent. 
If it is indeed possible, how do I make sure the connection works and is it 
slower than passing through a router?

Thanks for your help.

Best,

Ioana

HI.  you can do this with ethernet cable but you will have to statically

Blueray drive suggestions for Marc

[Allison Manzino]

Hi Marc,

I'm sorry I can't be of more help. I once had a DVD/CD reader/writer. I can't 
remember the name of it. But it wasn't blueray. My best advice is to try a site 
called:
http://www.newegg.com


Here is the page with the blueray drives on Newegg.com:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=17595&IsNodeId=1&Description=blueray
 drives&name=External CD / DVD / Blu-Ray Drives&Order=BESTMATCH I would 
recommend if you have the budget for it the LG which is the first one on that 
page. My father-in-law has an LG DVD recorder, and it's awesome. Not the same 
as this one, because his is a video to DVD recorder, but it's amazing. I have 
been a customer of NewEgg's  for years and have always been happy with the 
service. I am not affiliated with this company in any way, in the interest of 
full disclosure and honesty. I hope this helps you.

Musically,
Allison
My birds are winged blessings, they help me soar!

Re: Good News about Safari and Bookshare XML Files

[Greg Aikens]

Harry, this is genius.  This worked perfectly.  I still don't know why Safari 
only blocks new bookshare files but now I can read them.  

To show the develop menu in the menu bar, go to the Preferences dialog from the 
Safari menu.  Select the Advanced tab and you will find the option to show the 
develop menu.  

Thank you so much for sharing this Harry.

Re: boot camp

[Alex Hall]

You might want to look at the Refit boot manager. Using this, I am able to 
simply press the power button without holding down anything, then press m for 
mac or w for windows a second after I hear the startup chime. I had sighted 
help installing this, and it was over a year ago so I don't remember the exact 
procedure, but google should be able to tell you more than you need to know.

Re: still no luck with Audible.com

Hi Tammy,

I've always just downloaded them onto my phone, since I never listen to audio 
books on my Mac. It was  never trouble before IOS 6.  However, all seems to be 
well now.

RE: boot camp

[Missy Hoppe]

That sounds overly complicated to me. You can go into system preferences and 
set which os you want to boot into by default.
If you want a different one, hold down the option key while powering on your 
machine. Then, hold down the option key for
about 10-15 seconds. You will be in a list of things you can boot from. All you 
need to do, assuming your set-up is fairly
basic, is arrow to the 1 you want. For example, if you boot into windows by 
default, you'd left arrow once to boot from your
main mac OSX drive. Right arrow once would take you to the recovery partician. 
If you boot by default into OSX, pressing
right arrow once will let you boot into windows, and pressing right arrow twice 
will take you to the recovery partician.
One final note: after making your selection, you need to press enter. This 
method should work great, but to set whichever
mode you want to be your default, system preferences and then startup disc 
would be your best bet.
Good luck, and I hope this helps!
Missy

You might want to look at the Refit boot manager. Using this, I am able to 
simply press the power button without holding down
anything, then press m for mac or w for windows a second after I hear the 
startup chime. I had sighted help installing this,
and it was over a year ago so I don't remember the exact procedure, but google

Touch keyboard on iPad not working

[David Hole]

Hi folks.

I know there are lots of knowledge in here, and I hope there are
someone here who can help me out with the following issue.
I have a friend who have an iPad 3rd gen, wich she updated to iOS6.
After the update, she couldn't write mail, since when she doubletapped
on the text field in the body of the mail, the keyboard popped up, but
it was greyed out.
This only happens when writing mail, and when VoiceOver is turned
on.Any ideas of what that could be, and how this can be solved?

Thanks in advance.
-David

Re: boot camp

[Alex Hall]

I'm not sure how Refit is complicated. Pressing one button seems much more 
straightforward than holding a key for fifteen seconds, arrowing and not being 
able to be sure which drive you are on, and pressing enter. The setup process 
was not complicated, as I recall; I mostly had a sighted person help because it 
was only my second day with a mac and I was not sure what I was doing with it. 
I still have the refit dmg if you can't find it.

Voiceover Jumping Around in Contacts on iPhone 3GS

[Harry Hogue]

Hi everyone,

I just wondered if anyone else noticed VoiceOver jumping around in the contact 
on the iPhone?  It started happening the other day, and after updating to IOS 6 
it still seems to happen.  The letter before each group of contacts beginning 
with that name will jump.  For example, it might say J, then give a namelike 
Centurylink, for example.  I think it sorts the names by looking at the last 
name, even though it lists them first name/last name, since under the "Y's" it 
has names of people starting with both B and S with the last names starting 
with Y.  It's confusing and doesn't make much sense to me.  I'm not sure what I 
might have done to cause this random behavior.

Thanks,

Harry

a little stuck updating Infovox

[Ray Foret Jr]

Okay,

Like, I don't get it.  I opened the Infovox Ivoice manager figuring I could 
update from there.  No such luck.  All the items in the menus seemed to be 
grayed out.  I guess maybe I needed to log in first, but, forgot my password.  
So, when I went on the site to request a new password, the page came back and 
told me that my e-mail address was not recognized.  I'm honestly about to 
remove all this because it seems to me like updating this here is more trouble 
than it's worth.

Re: Good News about Safari and Bookshare XML Files

Amber, you're very welcome.  it was the most annoying problem to me, because I 
simply could not understand what was causing it, and knew neither the Bookshare 
folks nor the Apple folks would have a clue.

Glad to help.

RE: a little stuck updating Infovox

That is very, very strange. I just went into apps, ran the infovox manager 
thing, did check for updates, and it worked like a
dream. It was fully updated within 5 minutes. Granted, I can't afford any of 
the new voices at the moment, but they're there
if I want them.

Re: a little stuck updating Infovox

[Cheryl Homiak]

No the greyed-out stuff is because you are in a preliminary window which gives 
you a link to the website and explains something about the voice manager. I 
think if you uncheck open at startup you won't get that window the next time 
you open the voice manager. But for now, close that window and you will be in 
the voices manager. Then in the menus go to check for updates. You'll get a 
warning that the voices manager is running and needs to quit for the update 
(not exact words). This morning i just did continue and I don't think it 
updated. This afternoon I actually quit the manager and then it updated. You 
have to watch with this program though because at least in my experience there 
were some alert windows that came up and I didn't see them until I used my 
window chooser to check.

Re: a little stuck updating Infovox

[Cheryl Homiak]

The reason it worked for you without any problem was that you didn't have that 
one optional window open that can open at startup but doesn't have to be. I was 
a little puzzled when I first saw it myself but now I have that box unchecked.

Re: boot camp

[Phil Halton]

yes, you can go to preferences/startup disk and in the scroll area, select 
bootcamp as the startup disk. Then follow the prompts to reboot. Windows 
will boot without having to choose it from the list of OS. Then, if while in 
windows, you want to reboot into MAC OS X, select that option from the 
bootcamp entry in the system tray. OSX will boot without choosing from the 
OS list.

New Voices Giving Me Demo Messages

[Shawn Krasniuk]

Hi guys. I just installed the new Infovox Ivox voice Will a while ago and for 
some reason, here and there I keep getting the message "This is an evaluation 
version of Acapela Group's Text To Speech synthesizer." I am on the internet 
which is one of the requirements of any demo voice so I don't know why I keep 
getting this nag message. This happens with both Voiceover and Growl. I'm 
currently using him with Chromevox, Google's screen reader and the nag message 
doesn't happen there so I don't get why I'm getting it with anything else. I'm 
using Infovox Ivox 3.1 on a Macbook running OS X Mountain Lion. Thanks.

Re: all well with Infovox update.

[Cheryl Homiak]

Well, this is kind of strange. I downloaded Ella and started the demo. I was 
promptly warned that the demo voices require an Internet connection and to make 
sure I'm connected to the internet when the voice is being used. That's all 
very good and well! But what if your Internet goes down, unbeknowns to you, 
while running the demo? In the past, if a trial period ran out or for some 
reason you reinstalled on your computer and didn't have the license in on a 
voice, it would repeat its introductory sentences and I think maybe say 
something about not being installed ad infinitum while you tried to manage to 
navigate to voiceover utility and change the voice. That wouldn't be very 
pleasant if that's the way it still works so I don't know if I want to use a 
demo voice and be stuck trying to fix a problem. It used to be that the demos 
had a time limit but you weren't required to be connected to the Internet to 
use them if I recall correctly.

Re: Touch keyboard on iPad not working

[Lisette Wesseling]

I've had this happen when a bluetooth keyboard is also paired with the iPad. 
You can't have both a bluetooth keyboard connected and also use the onscreen 
keyboard. I have sometimes forgotten my bluetooth keyboard is connected so I 
know how easy that is to do.
This may not be the problem but it's worth having your friend check no other 
external keyboard is connected.

Re: New Voices Giving Me Demo Messages

[Cheryl Homiak]

Did you reboot after installing? When i first installed Ella and Will, when I 
tried to change to their voices in voiceover utility, they would speak their 
introduction and then revert to Alex, whom I don't have set to do anything. i 
decided I had to reboot and since doing that I can change to either of the demo 
voices with no problem and so far I haven't gotten any of the nag messages. I 
do not have growl on my computer.

mac restarted again, despite all the fixes

[Alex Hall]

Hi all,
I was at my desk, reading a book on my apex, when I heard my mac give the 
startup chime. It had restarted, just hours after the last time this happened 
(sometime around 10:00 this morning, and it's now about 7:30). I have repaired 
disk permissions, and there were no errors. I have reset my PRam. I have pulled 
out the power cord for the recommended time. As I said before, when I am in 
windows this does not happen, which tells me this is probably not a hardware 
problem with the Mini. If there's anything else I can try, please let me know. 
Yes, re-installing OSX may have to happen, but I'm hoping for a less drastic 
solution that does not involve wiping my drive before I resort to that step, 
especially as I have no one whom I would trust to help with a bootcamp/windows 
install at the moment. If I did have to reformat, I'd probably forego windows 
for a while, but I would want it back eventually simply to play audio games. 
Fusion or Virtualbox may be coming to a mac near me relatively soon... Anyway, 
thanks for your continued suggestions.


Have a great day,
Alex (msg sent from Mac Mini)

Re: mac restarted again...

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

It doesn't seem like a hardware issue to me if you had Windows running without 
any similar issues.  Therefore, I believe that taking it to an Apple Store 
would be a waste financially.  My nearest Apple Store is about a 5 hour drive 
so its not usually in the cards for us either.

It does, then, sound like a software issue.  I do suggest, though, for 
troubleshooting purposes that you install the OS onto an external HD.  This 
problem seems to happen quite often so maybe if you let the Mini run off the 
external OS all night and check on it in the morning to see if it has 
restarted.  If you leave it logged in when you go to bed, and have it set to 
not log in automatically, then it will be sitting at the login screen if it 
restarted itself overnight.

Give that a try then we can go from there.

Re: mac restarted again, despite all the fixes

[Alex Hall]

Good to know, that makes this easier. What happens to my user data, such as 
apps, app settings, music, and everything else in /applications or the ~/ 
folders? What I mean is, does this do some sort of in-place install, or does it 
format the osx partition and reinstall everything?

i believe you just install a clean copy and it will keep your files.
Unless you go to disk utility and ercace your macintosh hd.

Re: mac restarted again, despite all the fixes

[Cheryl Homiak]

The only thing is: if you want to do a restore instead of a clean install, even 
of just the Mac side, you want to be sure that whatever is causing the problem 
just doesn't get reinstalled or set again. So if it were me, I would lean to 
erasing the Mac partition and clean installing instead of any kind of restore. 
Then you can maybe troubleshoot what causes the problem if it starts happening 
again.

Re: mac restarted again, despite all the fixes

[Chris Bruinenberg]

I agree.
I had a weird issue with mail and i did a clean install and it fixed it all.
I always would recognmend doing a clean install when doing a large update aka 
from lion to mountain lion.

infovox nag messages and new voices

[Cheryl Homiak]

I just got a nag message. They must be occasional reminders.

I like Ella but she can't keep up with my typing like Heather and Ryan can and 
she sounds like she's kind of going to have throat strain from trying to 
enunciate clearly. It's something in her pitch; I may have to play with it a 
little bit. Glad I haven't bought yet; I like Will so far but I don't know if 
i'll come to like him as well as Heather and Ryan. If I keep Ella, she won't be 
my default voice.

Re: question about hotspots

[Ioana Gandrabur]

Hi Anne,


Did I understand correctly that for you hotspots are remembered within the 
application? I find on my mac that, if I set a hotspot in one app and then 
change apps, it returns me to the first app. To have 10 hotspots in each app I 
have to save them in activities.

Thanks for clarifying this for me.

Best,

Ioana

Please check out my cd on www.ioanagandrabur.com on iTunes and most online 
stores.

Re: mac restarted again, despite all the fixes

[Alex Hall]

Good point. Once I get my Carbonite transferred over to the mac I'll feel 
better about all this. As you both said, a clean install makes the most sense 
for troubleshooting purposes, so, if it comes to that, I'll do it. Now I'm 
waiting for ML to download from the app store, and am searching for an 8gb 
drive of some kind. I wonder, though, Once I make this bootable drive, how do I 
work it? The articles I've found seem to indicate that one can boot it or 
install the os from it, and I want to make sure I do the former and not the 
latter.

It was the easiest for me.

Re: mac restarted again, despite all the fixes

[Alex Hall]

I downloaded an app called Lion Disk Maker but have not run it yet as it 
requires the ML installer and a suitable drive. Is this Super Duper program 
free or paid?

Please help with extracting audio from AVI file

[Ioana Gandrabur]

Hi all,

I have a .avi file and would like to just extract the audio part.
I tried opening it in Amadeus light or in garage band and get an error that 
quicktime cannot play it. VLC can and I found some kind of export setting there 
but don't quite understand how it works. Even if I did though I am not sure 
what encoding settings to choose to be able to extract audio.

Thanks for your help.


Ioana

Please check out my cd on www.ioanagandrabur.com on iTunes and most online 
stores.

Re: infovox nag messages and new voices

[Traci]

Since rebooting, I haven't received the nag msg.  I actually hadn't received it 
with Josh, but was getting it with Will.

I'm really enjoying Will.  Josh is fun to have around, but he wouldn't be my 
default.  Kind of like having Charlie Brown speaking my computer.  :)

Traci, Lol, and none of them can pronounce Traci.
