Hi. Are any of you playing around with bitcoins? If so, are there any great ways to use it with a local wallet on Mac (or Windows)? Are someone of you mining bitcoins? If so, how do you handle that?

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Haha. Hi, I'm trying it out right now. I don't think you will be disappointed with the accessibility. I'm able to read by line/ word/ character, and continuous reading with a 2 finger flick down seems to work just fine. Actually, when you first open the book, it tells you the voiceover gestures you can use to read. including highlighting and selecting text, etc. hth Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On May 1, 2013, at 11:57 AM, Christine Grassman wrote: > It's a good thing it is May 1 and not April 1, or I would think this was a > joke.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
I have been trying to use this as I have been waiting a long time to be able read Kindle books but I am having one very annoying problem. I used my Amazon account when we got our daughter a Kindle a couple of years ago and now all of her titles show up in my Kindle app. I have gone through the process of deregistering her Kindle but her books are still showing up on my iPhone. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can keep this from happening?

No, you will have to go to the Amazon website to find books, but once you make a purchase that title should show up on your iPhone.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
It's about time they came to the party. We all know how resistant Amazon has been to making their services accessible to us. Forgive my conspiracy theory attitude, there had to be some pressure from somewhere other than the blind community as a whole. We as a community have managed through constructive action & dialog to gain accessibility in many areas other than Amazon's services & devices. I have cautious optimism that it is a new beginning for Amazon & accessibility. Pam Francis On May 1, 2013, at 11:16 AM, Jane wrote: Not from within the Kindle app, You have to go to the Amazon site.

Strange issue with Mountain Lion Recovery
I have a client who has brought me her 2009 white 13 inch macbook as she needed a recovery done of Mountain Lion and needed her drive wiped. I'm not gonna go into the specifics, but her hard disk was pretty bad off, let's just put it that way. Anyway, I've managed to get into the recovery, and with her help, we got the installation started, but here is my questino. The startup chime, as well as Voiceover with the Fred voices in the recovery is profoundly! quiet! I can't hit F12 nor fn+F12 to bring it up any. Before you all say it's gonna be way quieter than it is when you're actually booted into the OS... I completely realize that, remember, I do this stuff for a living, but when I say quiet, I mean quiet! this sucker's barely! and I mean, barely! audible! Putting my ear literally touching the plastic casing of the system doesn't even make it intelligible. What in the heck could be causing this. She's paying me hourly to do this, and have left the system in my care while running some arrends. I'm just wonderring if there is anything maybe I coudl check that could be going wrong.

Can't tell you how happy I am to see this. I don't live in the U.S., so I don't have access to the US Bookshare store. This is the reason why I always used to struggle to find accessible books. This comes as a huge relief.The only downside is that my credit card is gonna be heavily used in the coming days. :) Sent from my iPhone On May 1, 2013, at 9:59 PM, Scott Rumery wrote: > No, you will have to go to the Amazon website to find books, but once you > make a purchase that title should show up on your iPhone. > > On May 1, 2013, at 12:12 PM, "Jed Barton" wrote: > >> Wow guys, this is cool. >> Question, can you actually search for books and stuff?

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
So what is the advantage of the Kindle book reading app over ibooks. I haven't really played with either one. On iBooks I was able to read continuously page by page and I could touch to read a line but I couldn't figure out how to read the previous or next line. The rotor let me choose to flick through characters and headings but not lines. If it was reading continuously it would flip pages automatically but I could only manually turn the page by going to the page chooser and then flicking up and down. Probably just some gestures I don't know about. I thought a three finger flick left/right would turn the page like moving between pages of apps in the main screens.

Re: Strange issue with Mountain Lion Recovery
Chris, First, your regular volume commands of F11/F12 are not usable in Recovery mode or in ASR kinds of partitions. That's normal behaviour. Two ways to get around this is to either press VO-cmd-right arro until you hear VO say "volume", then press VO-cmd-up arrow to raise the volume. Alternatively, you can reset the PRAM which will put the volume back to a default level which is likely at a more ear friendly level. What probably happened is that her computer volume was set really low when you restarted and entered the Recovery partition so that's the level you get. Hope this makes sense. Later...

The big difference is the selection. There are just more books available for Kindle than for iBooks--much as I like iBooks.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Amazon's mobile app for ios is accessible. You'll do lots of clicking through various screens to see reviews etc, though. So unless you really have problems with the regular site, I'd just stick with it. Others disagree, though.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
3-finger flick does enable switching pages n ibooks. Or you can use page chooser, as you noted. The advantage to the Kindle app is that there are more books to select from, and prices are usually, but not always, cheaper. I like ibooks because they let you organize your titles in categories. I don't see a way to do that with the Kindle app. The fact that you can read by words or characters in the Kindle app is a plus. I hope Apple fixes the word character line thing in the next ios release.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Scott, Does your daughter still need access to those kindle titles? If not, then I believe you can sign in to your amazon account, go to manage my Kindle, or something like that, and in there, you can actually delete the books, which means, should you need them again, you'd have to repurchase them. If you don't want to do that, then I don't think there is a way you can stop those older books from showing up when your Amazon app is set to view the items in the cloud. But if you sort by recent, wouldn't all those older titles show up after anything you buy? This is assuming you have not been buying Kindle books for yourself until now, of course.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
I have recent as my sorting order and they still show up. She does not need these titles any more but I can't delete them because when I view my library on Amazon the delete link is in an image, at least this is what Voice Over is telling me. I have talked to Amazon and I was told that the Delete from Library link is actually a piece of JavaScript that the screen readers are having trouble with. The person that I was talking to said that he will forward this to the appropriate person and that they needed to get this fixed, but I am not holding my breath.

Re: Windows Emulation?
VMWare fusion is about $50 which isn't all that bad. What will cost you more is the license for Windows itself, which depends on what flavor of Windows you want to test under. If you're trying to emulate a typical user then that would be Windows 7 more often than not and that will run you about $150. If you're trying to test for accessibility you can't just fake it with WINE, which tries to emulate the Windows APIs so you can run Windows apps without buying Windows. First, they probably aren't going to emulate a lot of the accessibility APIs and second, if something doesn't work right, how do you know if it's the app you're trying to use or the faked Windows environment? The chat app's website says it supports web, iOS and OSX clients in addition to Windows, so could you use one of those?

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Can one purchase and manage their kindle books from the amazon app then switch over to the kindle app to download the book and read it? OMG! I am shocked, amazed, and excited all at once.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Nope, no joke, I thought the same thing too until I tried it and actually read a chapter and a half of a book I've been looking at on the other Kindle keyboard with just speech, with my bluetooth braille display connected to my iPhone. Talk about nice, and I hear that all the rest of the books are available, no matter if speech is enabled or not now, since we can read them with voiceover. I'm really excited, and being a librarian at the Regional Library for the Blind here in Alabama, I've got a few patrons who are kindle users to a degree and this is exactly what we and they have been waiting for. I'm pumpe because my wife and I have had a kindle for a while her longer than me, because they just a few years ago allowed for accessibility of sorts, in the Kindle Keyboard, so we've got a ton of books, now that the app is accessible I am going to be a reading fool. Have fun and take care.

Re: Strange issue with Mountain Lion Recovery
It was incredibly quiet. I still to this very minute don't know what on earth the issue was. Once the installation finnished, the volume was perfect. the startup chime went back to its normal volume, and the recovery volume also went back to normal.

That's normal behaviour. Two ways to get around this is to either press VO-cmd-right arro until you hear VO say "volume", then press VO-cmd-up arrow to raise the volume. Alternatively, you can reset the PRAM which will put the volume back to a default level which is likely at a more ear friendly level. What probably happened is that her computer volume was set really low when you restarted and entered the Recovery partition so that's the level you get. Hope this makes sense. Later...

key repeat errorwas Type2Phone free this weekend
I used to love type 2phone. However, lately mine refuses to type properly. It constantly repeats any key I type over and over and over. I am running latest version of mac and type2phone and ios on my iPhone 4. The last type2phone update was supposed to fix the key repeat problem but it did not fix it for me. I keep trying to get it to work but it just won't. Does anyone know a fix for this? I do love that I can copy text from my mac onto my iPhone. That seems to be working fine still without all of the repeats.

Anyone finding the Kindle app really slow when reading with a braille display?
Hi all, I was just reading in the Kindle app, and it seems like there's about a half second delay between the press of the scroll button and the movement of the display. this makes reading in braille very slow. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

It's slow for me, yes. It's faster to read with Samantha, but I am hopeful it will impove over time.

Well, at least I know I'm not the only one experiencing this. I do hope your write, at this point, for reading with braille, Kindle would be my least favorite option, just because it's so slow..

I know a work around for that. 1. go here: www.amazon.com/access Do it from there and you will not need to fool with the captcha.

Re: Mac Sounds
Hi Jesus, Unfortunately, you can't set sounds for shut down and start up. Especially since the startof sound actually comes out of the internal speaker of your computer.

RE: Mac Sounds
thought so, don't mine the start up sound as a matter of fact I kind of like it. I would like a shut down indication, sometimes it would be nice to know the machine is shut down for good. Guess still working on windows buggy mode.

Re: Mac Sounds
The best way you know that your computer is shutdown, is when the fan stops spinning. Regarding your other questions, I have no idea as I don't really care about such things to worry about sounds for them.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Just a heads up. You cannot download kindles from the Amazon mobile app. You have to save them in your WishList, and purchase them through your browser.

Re: Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover.
Best then to use: www.amazon.com/access or go through the mobile device: IN which case, Amazon should be able to detect that you are using a mobile and properly direct you. Yes?

Re: problem with messages going to the Cloud
Hi Gigi, Are you talking about Mail messages here or Messages as in iMessages? I'm assuming Mail messages as I don't know anything about archiving iMessages… • What account is this you're having trouble with? • Have you designated which Mailbox to use for archiving? You can do this by selecting the mailbox from the mailbox list, activating the contextual menu, then choosing – use this mailbox for archiving. Make sure the mailbox you're using for archiving is an IMAP mailbox and is the same one you're using on your iPhone. • When you archive a message on your Mac, can you navigate to the archive folder on your Mac and see the just archived message along with other messages archived on your iPhone? Those are just my preliminary thoughts. Hopefully it may be of some help trouble shooting or perhaps when you've answered those I or someone else might have some other ideas.

Re: how do I fine tune in slacker?
Hi Christina, On the latest update to the slacker app, you have 4 tabs along the bottom of the app. They are from left to right as you are holding your phone vertically as follows, related artists, favorites, popular songs, & newer songs. When you double tapp a given tab, there is a slider about the end of your finger's length that opens. It opens to a default progress indicator for each given tab. Moving the slider to the right increases, to the left, decreases the type of music you want played within that open tab. My best suggestion would be to tap the slider, it will tell you what its progress is. Turn off vo & play with it until you get it the way you want it. It will mean turning vo on & off a couple of times, however, is very doable. At least they made this update for the phone accessible again. Hope this helps.
