Re: VoiceOver Preferences and Sharing Programs Between Accounts
Hi, are you sure about importing the file and it works? I haven't tried it for a while due to obvious reasons because VO wasn't able to import all the settings correctly in Lion. I'm not sure about Mountain Lion. But I'm interested wether they fixed this issue or not.

Re: VO improvements in the next update
I have never ever had an issue with a "one row added" thingy. I tend to agree with those who think that it's a good thing it's there. Makes me think, isn't it strange that when we get too little info we complain and then when we get more or all info available we also complain. If you *have to* do something about that "one row added1" feature, make an option to toggle between text, beep or nothing, that way everyone could have it how they wanted to, but then we'd probably complain about it anyways. /Krister 27 maj 2013 kl. 02:53 skrev Michael Marshall : > hey, > playing a tone would be mutch better because even when you leve the window > with the table rows VO still says it and your trying to read and it says 1 > row added and stops the reading. > it's enough to make you rip your hair out and screem. > what i would love them to do is to make it tell you how many rows have been > added on request only with a short cut. > > Michael > On 27/05/2013, at 9:58 AM, Chris Gilland wrote: > >> That isn't stupid.

Re: Expanding & collapsing mailboxes in Mountain Lion
Hello, Thanks everyone for your input. I'm really confused about these issues. However, I've found that it is something to do with my security settings. I've purchased a domain from hostpapa and created several mailboxes to separate various activities. After setting them up. I read that the SSL connections were strongly recommended. So I attempted to change the configuration and it's been down hill from there. So I'm having some success by returning to the not so secure config until I can get to my next 1 to 1 session. I've just had a nag about the imap path prefix which I'm guessing where my problems are to be found. It's not an good idea to being going in so deep while trying to get to grips with a new OS. But that's me, don't do anything by half. LOL! I'm hoping that you get this post too as I've obviously had email failures with all this going on. The backslash forward slash really threw me. A real problem when communicating on an international level. I think you mean the right square bracket for UK users. So hopefully, I'll have a secure workable structure of email receive, store and delete system that meets my needs, soon!

Re: What would you all like to see in scripts to speak system status?
My script will speak iTunes info on command, not automatically. I could make it automatic, but I, too, would find that incredibly annoying, especially since I usually know what the song is and only someimtes need the information. So, no need to spend money, just be patient with me. It shouldn't be too much longer...

Actually, if you have growl, and want ITunes speaking tracks in real time as they change, then get growl tunes through the extras downloads tab of Growl's preferences.

The NFB app doesn't have some periodicals, so I think options for apps that fill in the gaps are a nice alternative.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Yeah, I agree with you John. Both my iMac running 10.8.3 and MacPro running the same work properly for the most part. Not as functional as Nicholas mentioned whereby he could drop it in a specific place in the Favourites bar but it at least works way better than my MBP.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Hi, Eureka!!! At least for me anyway. I thought that it was possibly VO cursor related and it appears that the issue has something to do with the magnification of the VoiceOver Cursor. In the VoiceOver Utility, in the visuals category under the VoiceOver Cursor tab, all my machines were set to show the VO Cursor but the magnifications were slightly different. My MacPro at work was set to one and my MBP was set to three. So, I changed the MBP to one, like the MacPro, and I was now able to add items to the Favourites Bar and drop them specifically somewhere within the Bar as well. VO is not particularly helpful, though, for me in the process of getting rid of items off the Favourites Bar, because it won't drag items with press action. This is what I do to get rid of items rom the Favourites Bar. I use VO to navigate to the item I wish removed, press VO-cmd-f5 to make sure that my mouse is focused there as well, then press down on my mouse or trackpad and physically just drag it down and out of the bar. You only need to do this a short distance, then release the button and you'll hear a swoosh like when something falls off your dock. I hope this is of some help to Brian, Jürgen and others, if not, please let me know and I'll see if anything else makes a difference. Later...

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
I tried moving a mailbox in classic mail and in the regular version, and of course got the same error message in both that the mailbox is not draggable. I also wasn't able to do it the old way with a VO shift space bar, which is what worked a few weeks ago when I first wanted to move the mailbox. I ended up having someone who could see move it, and have not tried since, if someone figures something out, let me know as I would love to be able to do it on my own if I have to in the future.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Brian, Did you check your VO settings that I mentioned in my previous post? I, too, was unable to do anything on my MacBook Pro until today when I adjusted those settings. A couple other things to note that weren't mentioned in my post: • I was performing this using the regular view, not Classic. • You must Interact with the given Mailbox from within the Mailboxes Table in order to Mark it otherwise the "Not Draggable" message will be heard.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Hey Tim, Very impressive that you discovered that 1 and 3 setting in visual. I adjusted my setting to 1 as it was set to 3, and for the first time VO common would mark and drag the mailbox, as I didn't get the hidden message. However, it wouldn't drop it. It said unable to drop mailbox. I tried dropping it right on the favorites mailbox and also in the favorites bar by first interacting with it, but got the same message. Am I dropping the mailbox in the wrong place? I tried it both in classic and non classic. Thanks.

Hi, I will test some more and see if I can duplicate what's happening for you Brian. I haven't got that issue since I fixed the magnification setting but that doesn't mean it won't happen if I do the right thing.

Re: Dimensions
Once it is centered, you have to move your finger back about an inch, toward the home button. You should hear the beam sound "ramping up" and, once you do, hold your finger still until the artifact is captured. Same deal for the Nefilim, but those you push away (move your finger away from the home button an inch or so) until they are gone.

Re: VO improvements in the next update
I agree, the one row added issue is my single biggest frustration with VoiceOver. It's not so much that you never want it, because in some applications it's extremely useful. But there are times when you don't, and there's no verbosity setting governing it. I'd like to see a verbosity setting that allows the user to set it to off, tone, or announce. Then I would save the setting to off in my YoruFukurou activity. By default, YoruFukurou uses Twitter's streaming API. This means that the app doesn't check for tweets at a pre-determined interval, but instead pushes the tweet to you the moment it has been sent. The trouble with this, is that if you follow a lot of people and they're all busily tweeting away, your reading of tweets is constantly being interrupted by "one row added". It's hard to read your Twitter feed and sometimes you need to attempt to read the same tweet several times before VoiceOver lets you complete hearing it. The work-around is to turn off Twitter API streaming, but this isn't ideal and makes YoruFukurou less attractive. One possible compromise would be for VoiceOver to complete the text it is reading before it says "one row added". Even that would be a big improvement over what happens now.

Re: VO improvements in the next update
I'd like a tone, that wouldn't interrupt vo. And I wish wish wish! That they would make the vo speech system separate from the system speech, so that if you have adium set to speak incoming messages, you don't have VO stopping its speech whenever a message comes in. Say you're reading a book in safari from bookshare. If you get a message in adium, it interrupts VO's speech. So I hope they make those independent of each other. sent from my Mac Mini with iCloud.
