Re: Never had so many problems with my Mac in almost 3 years
Hi Shawn, For the pronounciation, open the voice over utility, go to verbosity, go to the text tab on the right, then in there you will find the setting. As for the crashes, you seem to have quite some add-ons everywhere that might cause the crashing. Depending on the system you have and the load on your memory, you might be having a lot of processes running, which may or may not explain the issue.

Re: for advanced users only
Hi again, thanks for the side-track feedback on braille. I know it's a rather important and also beneficial skill to have. Don't know how long it will take me to be fully capable but i think i will eventually need to jump into it. I will try what Mark suggested though i'm fully advocating for an enhancement here, as it would really bring some clarity when i read technical documents :) Best Yuma "Light has no value without darkness" Mob: +642102277190 Skype: Shainobi1 twitter: http://www.twitter.com/triple7 This message is protected by article 4-210 of a certain book of laws but you don't have to worry about privacy issues if you are the intended recipient.

Re: pages question
Hello Chris, I never use Pages just for reading documents, TextEdit is much better for that. You can go to a specific page by stopping interacting with the text and using VO-Down arrow or Up arrow to navigate the list of pages. Just interact with the one you want. For the line spacing, you need the Text inspector and the Text tab.

Re: audio highjack pro
Cheryl is quite correct. You're making to much work and worry for yourself. You need only stop a recording by pressing command+r as you did to start a recording. Command+g is only a command to hi jack audio-not to record it. AS for playing the files, any player of your choice will do. If you want just to listen, why not find the file in Finder, and then, press space to activate the quick look? Also, when you set to record from any appplication, Audio Hijack pro will find the audio being played by that application and just grab it. IF you want to do a recording of yourself and all system sounds, I'd select the system audio choice. I'd make sure also to select a microphone that's part of a headset-thus helping you avoid feedback. HTH. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray Still a very proud and happy Mac and Iphone user!

hello people… I seem to be having a problem with vmware fusion. I can't seem to interact with the session inside the vm in quite the same way as I do with voiceover. some of the keys that would normally work in windows don't either because voiceover captures them or they aren't passed on to the vm. I need some help an a copy of any tutorials for vmware fusion. since this essentially my first time using a vmware product on OS X, I am at a loss as to how to get there from here. thanks eric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

One tricky thing to note: if you use a recording schedule, use tab and spacebar to check the boxes for the days of the week. Otherwise, VO will not register the state of the checkbox correctly.

Re: IPhone 5: Is it just me or am I noticing something awesome!
You really should look into it, Chris. It's amazing. I actually was just listenning to my Martin Page House of Stone and Light disc this morning on the thing, and I gotta tell ya: the sound is exceptionally good. Granted, if you have a dock, you'd be better off, but if you want to run it just on the internal speaker, the sound is unbelievable, considering the size of the internal speaker. Beware if you do want to use a dock, like an IHome etc. you will need to buy from Apple the lightning to 30 pin adapter, but that thing's very very! reasonally priced. I think here in the states, if I remember correctly, it was about 19 bucks or so. I say, if I remember correctly, as I didn't buy the adapter when I got my phone. I've had it for a while now, as I actually bought it right after getting my IPad Mini which also uses the lightning charger. I did that as I didn't know if I'd ever have a need to make that IPad port be a 30 pin. So far, I've not, but you never know. Plus, seeing I knew that eventually I'd be getting an IPhone 5, I figured this way, I would have the thing in case I ever did want to put it to my IHome dock. I actually just tried that with the adapter this morning as well, and it worked absolutely flawlessly. And yes, it did still charge. The adapter doesn't seem to effect that.

Re: audio highjack pro
Hi I'm getting the hang of it now thanks to you all. The only weird thing is that when I press command r I'm given this error message which says audio highjack pro can't highjack itself. This happens when I set it to system audio. I think I'll go ahead and pay for the full version now that I get the idea. Cheers all.

I believe safari opens when you check the hijack box but I'm not sure because I usually already have safari going and on what I want to record if it's something live. I think the safari session is already in the components and sessions list and you don't have to create the session. If you have to do that or if you are trying to schedule a time for it to start, that could call for a little more instruction but even that shouldn't be too difficult.

Re: IPhone 5: Is it just me or am I noticing something awesome!
Thank you Chris, should I treat myself to the 5th generation iPod Touch, I will definitely include the Lightning to 30 Pin Adaptor in the order, as like you say, you never know! I also have a dock as part of my home stereo, which takes the old iPod Touch and iPhone, so the adaptor would be needed to not only listen but to charge a 5th generation iPod Touch, iPhone 5, etc. Christopher Hallsworth On 06/01/2013 17:59, Christopher-Mark Gilland wrote: You really should look into it, Chris. It's amazing. I actually was just listenning to my Martin Page House of Stone and Light disc this morning on the thing, and I gotta tell ya: the sound is exceptionally good. Granted, if you have a dock, you'd be better off, but if you want to run it just on the internal speaker, the sound is unbelievable, considering the size of the internal speaker. Beware if you do want to use a dock, like an IHome etc. you will need to buy from Apple the lightning to 30 pin adapter, but that thing's very very! reasonally priced. I think here in the states, if I remember correctly, it was about 19 bucks or so. I say, if I remember correctly, as I didn't buy the adapter when I got my phone. I've had it for a while now, as I actually bought it right after getting my IPad Mini which also uses the lightning charger. I did that as I didn't know if I'd ever have a need to make that IPad port be a 30 pin. So far, I've not, but you never know. Plus, seeing I knew that eventually I'd be getting an IPhone 5, I figured this way, I would have the thing in case I ever did want to put it to my IHome dock. I actually just tried that with the adapter this morning as well, and it worked absolutely flawlessly. And yes, it did still charge. The adapter doesn't seem to effect that.

Re: program to read pdf's well on the mac?
Hi there. I just tested PDFpen Pro with the iPhone User Guide. You can use it to read straight through a PDF file like I just did. It is supposed to be a great editing program, if you're sighted, of course. We have discussed this issue before on this list. I have kept PDFpen Pro on my computer with the hope that sooner or later they will decide they are tired of hearing from VoiceOver users that can't work their program. I really need one myself, although not bad enough to put Windows on here. We may have to wait for Apple to figure it out for them. After all, it work in Windows, albeit sometimes slowly with large files. I invite you to come and join some of the rest of us in trying to get a good editor/reader for VoiceOver users. Yesterday, I was wishing good ol Adobe had made their app for the Mac work with VoiceOver. My bank sends you to Adobe Reader if you want to view your previously filed tax forms. If you do it using VoiceOver, the screen might as well be blank. I had to get a reader because this web site is bearly accessible anyway, and I got tired of dealing with it.

Re: Never had so many problems with my Mac in almost 3 years
Hi Shawn, I can't say anything for chromevox as i won't venture into having more than one screen reader on my mac. It guzzles ressources. Second, voice over tends to crash , freeze or get erratic when the system voice talks on top of the default voice. Say for instance you're reading a pdf, and growl notice from skype comes up, because voice over isn't multi-threaded, it tends to have difficulties in speaking out both instances simultaneously. I've also noticed that you're on a white macbook. What year is that? Things generally tend to bog down and become unstable as memory runs out, which is what i was trying to say.

Re: program to read pdf's well on the mac?
Absolutely the iPhone is definitely the best PDF reader around far as I'm concerned. It's even better than Windows computers for doing that. You just love the things and iBooks and go.

Re: program to read pdf's well on the mac?
Hi This is probably a dumb question, but how do you get your pdfs from your mac into your iphone? Do you email them to yourself or import them somehow?

Re: Selecting text on the Mac
Hi, one small thing, to select from your current position to the beginning or end of a line, you can just press Command left or, right arrow.

Re: Never had so many problems with my Mac in almost 3 years
Hi Wayne and Yuma. First, in the order of how my messages were read out to me, Wayne, I did the VO keys and hit plus and minus and nothing happens. I still hear punctuations like hyphens, quotes, and parentheses read out. Then I tried the chromevox keys, which are command and control, followed by the plus and minus keys but all that did was just changed the navigation of webpages by visual, group, object, sentence, words and characters. Yuma, my Macbook is mid 2010. I had to reformat this hard drive twice because currently I have a version of Fusion that only works under Snow Leopard so I had to reformat once to downgrade from Lion to Snow Leopard and reformat once again to get rid of the Windows crap so I could reinstall Lion. So I don't think memory is an issue and plus I upgraded my ram to 4 gigs anyway.

Re: Has anyone with an IPhone 5 also had this issue?
Hello Chris. I'm just catching up with all my e-mail using my I phone 5 due to no Mac but that will change tomorrow when every one I get my I Mac 27 inch. I'm so excited. Anyway, I think I have your problem that Siri is very quiet and it doesn't matter when I turn my volume up it changes after a while. So, if you are on a call and you lock the phone, will that not cut the caller off? Kind regards, Kawal.

We have also tried mapping using Fusion's keyboard mapping in Preferences to make the CapsLock key act as the Insert key. When doing this it appears as the capslock function doesn't work (doesn't capitalize letters) but the screen reader announces caps on and off. Any clues here?

Re: VMWare Fusion 5 with mapping Capslock to Insert
This has been discussed quite a lot on the list if you look through the archives. Multiple aproaches are suggested. keyremap4mac is meant to support this. I've had it working but found it flakey. That's just my experience though, yours may vary and there may have been bug fixes. Personally I remap the capslock to control in the mac keyboard prefs and then use sharpkeys inside windows to remap it to capslock. This works perfectly with the only down side being you no longer have a left control key in windows. I don't value my left control very highly when in windows so this solution works for me.

RE: VMWare Fusion 5 with mapping Capslock to Insert
Sorry, this confused me a bit. So, which screen reader in Windows are you using? Are you saying that you remapped the capslock key to the control key in VMWare's keyboard mappings? If so, you then are mapping what to what in SharpKeys? Are you telling SharpKeys to then map the CapsLock key on the keyboard to the Insert Key?

RE: VMWare Fusion 5 with mapping Capslock to Insert
JEFF, Using mac system prefferences -> keyboard to map mac capslock to left control. Then in windows use sharp keys to map control to capslock. I use jaws or nvda but it doesn't really matter which.

Strange problem with Do Not Disturb.
Hello. I've had this problem for some weeks. I have a schedule for Do Not Disturb for example, from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. However, this is not working and it has not been working for some weeks. It doesn't matter if I switch the phone off or on or I get rid of everything from the Appswitcher. I think this feature stopped working a couple of weeks ago. Any ideas? I did however had to restore the phone due to Voice over not coming back on after switching it off.

Re: Strange problem with Do Not Disturb.
Hi Kawal, You, I think, are referring to the New year's day do not disturb bug that manifested itself then. Schedules for it don't work, so it either won't shut off, or won't turn on. You say it's been happening for some weeks though, but from what I've read, it appeared on the 1st, and is supposed to be fixed by the 7th. Hope that helps some, Rachel On Jan 6, 2013, at 9:04 PM, Kawal Gucukoglu wrote: > Hello. > > I've had this problem for some weeks. > > I have a schedule for Do Not Disturb for example, from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. > However, this is not working and it has not been working for some weeks.

Re: pages question
Hello Chris, You need to select the text to which the line-spacing applies. If it's for the whole document, select the whole document with Cmd-a.
