Hi everyone,

[Johnny Angel!]

I goofed something up in mail.  Now whenever I either close or delete the last 
message in a conversation, mail places me back to the top of my inbox list.  
Does anyone know what I must do to correct this annoying behavior?

Blessings,

JC

  Right. That turns off the backlight which saves a bunch of power. F2 to bring 
it back up again.

  Main problem I've had with using Windows keyboards on the Mac has not 
been connecting them but that the option and command keys get flipped. Normally 
from left to right on laptops it is function, control,option (alt), command but 
on windows keyboards they probably won't have the Function key and the 
command/option keys switch places. I think there is a way to remap those keys 
so the go back to their normal places but I eventually got tired of it and went 
with an Apple keyboard. To be clear, non-laptop Apple keyboards also lack the 
function key since that is usually for doing things like change the speaker 
volume or dim the screen. Speaking of which, you can get a lot more battery 
life out of your laptop if you turn the brightness all the way down by hitting 
F1 about 16 times.

Hi Anita
If I understand your question, it sounds like you're asking about line mention

it a lot, but some people have had trouble with it if they have very large 
files. I did until I upgraded my memory to 8 GB.

Re: The Rotor Option.

[Eugenia Firth]

Yes, the rotor works like it does on the iPhone if you have one. When I can, 
I'll look it up and tell you more but yes if you turn the trackpad commander 
own with the control option and then take two fingers and twist them to the 
right on your trackpad, you were here a little musical tone and voiceover were 
satrap pad Cmdr. on.  I have found that I need to turn it off if I'm doing 
typing on my MacBook Pro. This is because things tend to happen when I don't 
want them to. So, I turn it on and off as needed.

Gigi

Hi,

In writing, an ellipsis is used as an "an intentional omission".  The
detailed text can be omitted either for reasons similar to the one Pam
gives, where the writer doesn't want to go on listing details, or
because the content of the quoted text is familiar, and the writer
doesn't want to quote it in its entirety, such as CB's example in
giving the opening words of the Gettysburg address.  It can have the
sense that Chris uses, of there being more content that follows (which
for reasons of length are not described).  In written essays,
articles, or reviews, you might use an ellipsis where you're quoting a
source, but are omitting parts that are secondary to the main point
being made.

You can't turn this feature off in VoiceOver, because it's giving you
information that is part of the menu options, but you can always press
the Control key to keep VoiceOver from announcing the whole phrase.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Strange problem with iPhone 4 S

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi guys
I have had my iPhone for S do something weird twice, once today and wants 
yesterday. I had gotten the low battery at 20%, and I ignored it. I figured I 
was going to go down to 10% and then plug it in. I was lazy, and I didn't want 
to get up out of my chair. However, my iPhone when I got to around 13% never 
made it to 10%. Voiceover said and he was in the middle of saying the word 
malfunction I think. All of a sudden, my iPhone was dead. I tried Plett 
pressing the PowerKey five times, and that didn't work. I tried pressing the 
power key and the home key together, and that didn't work either. So, I plugged 
in the charger, and after about 30 seconds or so for a minute, voiceover came 
back on and everything was fine. Has anybody had this happen with an iPhone 4S?

GG

airdrop, accessible or not?

Hi there folks,

I have heard quite a few things about this AirDrop thing, is it accessible? If 
so, can anybody give me an explanation on how to use it. Both me and my fiancé 
will have Max very soon, I already have mine, but alas I digress. Using 
airdrop, will obviously be much faster than using dropbox.

Main problem I've had with using Windows keyboards on the Mac
has not been connecting them but that the option and command
keys get flipped. Normally from left to right on laptops it
is function, control,option (alt), command but on windows
keyboards they probably won't have the Function key and the
command/option keys switch places. I think there is a way to
remap those keys so the go back to their normal places but I
eventually got tired of it and went with an Apple keyboard.
To be clear, non-laptop Apple keyboards also lack the
function key since that is usually for doing things like
change the speaker volume or dim the screen. Speaking of
which, you can get a lot more battery life out of your laptop
if you turn the brightness all the way down by hitting F1
about 16 times.

with my  MacBrook, or will a specific model be needed?

Re: Wireless Keyboards.

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

I'd also like to point out, since the subject is about wireless keyboards, you 
can only turn down the keyboard backlight on your macbook with the actual built 
in macbook keyboard.  You can't use the function keys on a wireless keyboard to 
do this.

Spell Check Just Stops Working in Pages

[Brian Fischler]

Yet another unbelievably frustrating problem with Voiceover and PAges.
This happens all the time, as spell check just stops working. When it
works properly I can go trhough a document click VO shift m, drop down
to spelling and go through my document and spell check will pull up
the words I have mispelled and offer suggestions for the misspelled
words. Then what happens when it doesn't work, like now, is I do the
same exact thing, and spell check doesn't offer any word corrections,
and will not move through the document from word to word that might be
mispelled. It just stops working, which is so amazingly frustrating
when I am on deadline for an article. Anyone have any ideas as to why
this happens or a way around it? I am a pretty good speller, but type
pretty fast and sometimes the keyboard doesn't register a letter, and
I can't turn my work in with misspellings. Would be nice if Apple
Accessibility actually finally got around to making some voiceover
upgrades in mountain lion, as it has been close to a year with zero
improvements or updates. Thanks

Re: Spell Check Just Stops Working in Pages

[Brian Fischler]

Just figured I would let the list know I called Apple Accessibility,
and although they couldn't figure out why my way of spell checking
wasn't working, they did suggest the command semicolon way of spell
checking a document. Of course, the funniest part about calling the
accessibility line is the customer service reps try walking you
through things while they themselves are not using voiceover, so it
kinds of defeats the purpose, but after explaining to them how to use
voiceover, we were able to figure out how to navigate the spell
checking menus using command shift semicolon and then VO and the
arrows to navigate the menus. Hope this helps someone else if they
have the problem I ran into.

Re: Spell Check Just Stops Working in Pages

Hello Brian,

I always spell check in Pages using Cmd-semicolon, correcting each error as I 
go. I've always found this to be the most convenient for me.

Anne

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but, command semi colon brings up just the next

Apple's Accessibility Number [was Re: Spell Check Just Stops Working in Pages]

[Esther]

Hello Brian and Others,

As a side comment to Brian's note about calling Apple Accessibility, and its 
ultimately successful outcome for using Cmd-semicolon, I just wanted to make 
sure that people knew there is a specific support telephone number that, from 
the U.S. at any rate, takes you to accessibility support:
1-877-204-3930.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Finder acting strangely.

[Jessica Moss]

I've just noticed last night, that for some reason when I do the 
"command+shift+c," command to bring up the computer ikon, it doesn't come up, 
but instead it shifts focus away from the finder window and takes me to 
whatever I was in previously.  So now I can't access my drives, or anything 
else, which is really disturbing, so I'd love to know if anyone else has had 
this problem.

Make sure you're on your finder desktop, then try that command. Also, if you go 
into preferences for Finder, you should be able to check off the boxes related 
to showing drives on your desktop.

Re: Help with RSS and Twitter feeds

[Jonathan Mosen]

Hi Brian, it's not your lucky day I'm afraid. Twitter has phased out RSS 
support, and yes Google Reader is being discontinued at the end of June.

In terms of alternatives to Reader, there's a lot of flux just now. Digg is 
supposed to be building an alternative platform, and there is another called 
Feeddly. I had some accessibility issues with their iOS app though.

The developer of my iOS RSS reader of choice, Feeddler, indicated that Feeddler 
wouldn't be going away and that we should await further developments. So it may 
pay to stick with Reader until closer to the time to see how things pan out.

Are there settings that make Mail work better with VO? I'm still unclear

I'm on the desktop when I've repeatedly tried that command, and for some

Re: Strange problem with iPhone 4 S

[ppowells09]

Hi folks,
I don't know, GG if you have any vision, however, I do have some, though not 
much. As your phone runs down or is charging, A box in the center of the screen 
when it is locked gives a visual rectangle showing battery percentage. When it 
gets below 20% it changes color. My theory is that it is running on its reserve 
much like your mac would when its battery is down, it will tell you it is on 
reserve power. My ipad II & my 4S do the same as you describe when their 
battery is nearly dead. Hope this helps.

Re: Games.

[Jessica Moss]

It comes with a Chess game, but I've never played it before, considering the 
fact that I'm not good at Chess, but aside from that, I've tried the Rsgames 
client, which I love to play on occasion when I get a chance.
  I'm not really sure aside from that sense I don't get a chance to play games 
all that often.

Re: Games.

[Pete Nalda]

I think the only game the Macbook Pro comes with, is Chess, in your 
Applications folder.  The best place to find more games is the App Store, which 
probably is on your dock.  Both PokerHD, and BlackjackHD, are accessible.  
Don't remember the cost of each right off hand, but that's 2 that I know of 
that are accessible.  If you have some vision, you might also enjoy 
McSolitaire, which I think is free, but the free version only offers Klondike.  
Anyway, check out the App Store for more ideas.  Hope this helps.

I've done that too; I shut it down last night, thinking it would fix itself

Re: Finder acting strangely.

And what's strange, is that when I close out of a new window in finder then try 
to launch the computer icon again, it relaunches whatever finder window I had 
open before I closed it to go back to the desktop, which it's never done before

MarsEdit Question

[Brianna Snyder]

Hi everyone, 

I was wondering if anyone who uses MarsEdit for blogging could answer a 
question for me. Do any of you know how to insert images that you have on your 
computer into your posts? I just started co-blogging on a book blog, so I'd 
like to know how to do this. 

Thanks, 
Brianna

Re: E-mail Questions.

[Brandon Olivares]

A few ways. If you go to the dock (VO-d), then hit right arrow until you get to 
mail, if you select it it will open it up. I usually just use spotlight, and 
type in mail, then press enter, or I have some keyboard shortcuts set up for 
common applications like Mail, Safari, Messages, etc.

There are rules available in preferences for performing certain actions when 
messages are received. You'd probably want to look there.

voiceover reset

[May and Noah]

Hey there everyone.

Some how my mac voiceover settings reset and I can't remember how some of them 
are suppose to be set.

Whenever I press the tab key now it doesn't go to the next item for example, it 
jumps to the search field. Can someone tell me how to fix this?

Thanks.

Re: E-mail Questions.

[Lisette Wesseling]

Hi Anita,
I really would strongly urge you to take the advice of many on this list 
regarding listening to the David Woodbridge podcasts from Applevis. By 
listening to him accomplish various tasks, you will learn how to open 
programmes, use the dock, and navigate VO utility etc. It really is worth 
taking some time to quietly listen to these things and you will get a real feel 
for the Mac. That's what I did and really helped me learn those basic things.
People are happy to help, but part of that is helping yourself too.
www..applevis.com and search for mountain lion.
even if the particular task he is demonstrating is not what you need, the 
principles he uses of how to get around and how to open programmes etc  will 
really help you.

Lisette

Re: Help with RSS and Twitter feeds

[Brian Fischler]

Hey Jonathan, Yes, since posting this I have done some searching and
discovered that the latest code Twitter is using has destroyed
receiving RSS feeds of Twitter accounts. I guess Twitter really wants
to keep you on their page for those advertising bucks. My main reason
for using RSS is so I can read important twitter accounts on my own
time and not miss anything, like all my blind tech news. What do you
use for a Twitter client? I have been using Night Owl Yourufiroo but
unfortunately lists don't seem to work well with that client as it
will only load the last 20 RSS feeds. It will load all of the tweets
but you get some really loud annoying chirp once you get beyond the 20
most recent tweets when it goes to read the tweet. I know there has
got to be another way. Thanks

Re: Program Question.

[ppowells09]

Hi Anita, 
This is a very helpful guide to getting started with voiceover directly from 
the apple website. It will introduce you to voiceover along with basic OS10 
commands. Hope it helps.
