Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Well done, detective Tim. Sounds like you've uncovered one of the mysteries. My show VoiceOver curser setting was checked and the magnification set to 1. From what Ricardo said, it sounds like the actual lines outlining the VoiceOver curser might be blocking the mailbox when magnification is high and thus blocking it from being dragged. I still get slightly different results to you, so I'd like to list them here again just so people are aware that there might still be some differences. • If dragging a single mailbox, I do not need to interact with it first before pressing VO-COMMA. • If dragging a collapsed mailbox with sub-folders within, I first need to interact with the title of the mailbox before pressing VO-COMMA. • To remove a mailbox from the favourites bar, I need to click with the TrackPad and drag quite some distance. If I drag a short distance I simply move the position of the mailbox within the favourites bar. IN fact, this is often how I reorder favourites, though sometimes it's easier to completely remove it and add it again as Tim says. Dragging it a long way doesn't seem to ever have negative consequences for me, so I just drag down as far as I can and then release. On the MacBook TrackPad I do this with one finger, but on the larger iMac TrackPad I find it easier to use two fingers. One to hold down the TrackPad in the clicked position, and the other to drag across the surface. I find I can be more accurate this way.

Mac Hospital
Back in November, I accidently spilled a glass with some ice cubes on my Mac keyboard. Ever since, my MacBook Pro keyboard did not function correctly. However, I've been able to use it with a Bluetooth keyboard. Recently, my Macbook has developed a new habit. It spontaneously restarts. It was so bad on Saturday that I wasn't sure I would finish the backup I was attempting to do. This problem is intermittent, I can go for hours without it happening, and then it will keep happening over and over. I feel strongly it is a hardware issue, so accordingly, my Macbook is off to the Apple hospital today.

Bibliographically citing material when using eBook readers
Hello everyone, Like many people on this list, I have truly enjoyed increasing accessibility to books through places like Bookshare, Nook, Amazon/Kindle, Blio and iBooks from Apple. I am wondering if there is a way, in any of the aforementioned platforms to gain accurate information about print-page numbers when using their respective apps on the iPhone. On more than one occasion, I have very much wished to draw someone's attention to a passage by pointing out specific print-page numbers, but I haven't been able to determine what print page I am actually on. If you decrease or increase the font size, the values in the page selector change and in any case, they don't reflect the hardcopy page numbering. I would appreciate any ideas on how to tackle this issue and which of the apps you use for eBook reading give you this information.

Re: Bibliographically citing material when using eBook readers
Hi, I believe Kindle does provide this information (hardcopy page numbering), at least for people who can see. Not sure how to access it, if it's even possible, with VoiceOver. I believe iBooks does not provide hardcopy page numbers, not even for people who can see. This is a real shame as you mention because it really undermines the utility of e-books for academic or similar professional use. E-books are such a brilliant format in all other respects for this kind of use, so it's really sad there's no way to provide a proper pinpoint reference.

Re: Skype Apple Scripts
I don't know if Skype handles this differently, so disregard my message if someone else comes along and tells me I'm totally wrong. That said, here are my thoughts: 1. Put the scripts wherever you want them. You'll assign them to keyboard shortcuts anyway, so organizing is simply personal preference since you can browse for them when you assign the key commands. Putting them in /library/scripts/VoiceOver is helpful only in that VO opens to that location by default when you assign a script to a commander shortcut. 2. Yes, you'd assign the scripts to services, then put a shortcut on that service. I believe you'd make the service specific to Skype, or global, depending on the behavior you want. Personally, I'd make most of the scripts global services, so that their keyboard shortcuts work in any application. Setting them to Skype only will make the keyboard shortcuts only activate the scripts when Skype is open, negating the handy effects of some of them (for instance, you'd have to switch to Skype to answer or end a call, instead of invoking that functionality from anywhere). If you assign the scripts to VO commanders, they are, of course, global. 3. You can also add them to either /library/scripts, or ~/library/scripts (in a subfolder if you like), then enable the scripting menu. Once enabled, this menu appears in the Extras menus and offers all the scripts stored in either scripts folder; pick one and press enter, and it runs. You can toggle this menu on and off from, oddly enough, the preferences in Applescript Editor. Hope this helps.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Thanks Nick, I appreciate your comments. It's good to have multiple ideas/processes for folks as it seems that, depending on settings and personal preferences, some of these behaviours react differently between users. It seemed like an issue that deserved special attention due to the fact that some were having no issues at all and others were totally frustrated, thus believing it to be a bug. I'm hoping that this solves the issue for most users who have been experiencing problems with the Drag & Drop to Favourites bar within Mail. Maybe this magnification issue will affect the Drag & Drop feature in other areas of the OS as well. Later...

Re: Skype Apple Scripts
Yes, I did mention using commanders. Still, services will work when vo is not on, which may be handy for non-vo users of a mac (like family members who use the machine). Also, as I develop the scripts I'm making, I find myself running out of keyboard commander commands that make sense. Services can offload that work, letting you use many more possibilities since they can use any modifier, where the keyboard commander is limited to just an option key.

Deleting an app from the iPhone 5

Re: Deleting an app from the iPhone 5
Using voice over, double tap and hold on the application, wait and tell you here voiceover say "editing apps", and then double tap the application like you were going to open it. You will then be Prompted for confirmation that you would like to remove the application. If the application is a game, then you may be prompted to delete any information that is available in game center. Hope this helps.

I've kind of, ish! figured out Cyberduck, but...
So, I got a copy of Cyberduck, from the mac app store, but I have a couple questions. It looks like this app, is somewhat usable, but I obviously must not know what I'm fully doing. I found the new connection button in my toolbar, and did manage to connect to an ftp server, and I do see the table, and was able to interact and see the files/folders, but I can't figure out how to get to the local file view, where I can see the files locally on my Mac. Tabbing around, or vo cursoring around isn't revealing anything except that one table for the remote file view. I also see some unlabeled buttons with no help tags at all, and most of them are unavailable anyway. I also saw a couple check boxes in there with no lables or tags. So, yeah... I mean, the app kind of looks sort of doable, but maybe I'm just thick, I dono, but I can't seem to figure this out at all. The menu bar looks standard enough, and the toolbar looks fairly usable, and of corse, the table after connecting looks like it's reading fairly decently with the exception that a couple of the columns don't read, or say unknown, but that's not really anything that's seeming to cripple me by much. Those few buttons that are unlabled that are! available, don't seem to be doing anything by hitting vo+space on them, nor routing my mouse pointer, then doing vo+shift+space. I think where I'm mainly getting tripped up is those unlabeled things, as well as in the interface of the app how to see my local files so I can copy things back and forth/move things back and forth. For right now, until someone can give me some help with this, I'm sticking with the opinion until proven otherwise, that transmit is by far and away: way way way way! more accessible.

application to generate daisy audio from daisy text?
Hi all, I have some daisy books from Bookshare I'd like to convert to audio so my NLS player will play them. I prefer the Serena voice above all others available to me for reading, and so I'd like an app that can take the text, get the audio of a voice on the Mac speaking it, then output a daisy audio book. I don't want the text as well, though if it comes along for the ride I'm fine, I mostly need the audio. Does such a thing exist? I've done some googling on the subject but came up empty. Any ideas would be great. Thanks.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
HI, Re getting rid of favourites: • Do not use the VO-shift-space keystroke. As Tim said- 1. Navigate to the mailbox you wish to remove; 2. Make sure your TrackPad commander is off by holding down the VO keys and rotating two fingers counter clockwise on the TrackPad; 3. Use VO-command-F5 to rout the mouse pointer to the VO curser; 4. Press VO-F5 to check that the mouse curser is on the mailbox you wish to remove; 5. If it's not, repeat steps 3 and 4 until it is; 6. Press the TrackPad down into the click position and hold it, then drag one finger from the top of the TrackPad to the bottom and then release the TrackPad entirely. 7. You should here a swooshing sound indicating that the mailbox is no longer in your favourites bar. If you don't, repeat steps 1 through 7. Re the checkboxes in favourites bar, these simply display the relevant mailbox. They should really be radio buttons instead of checkboxes, as only one can be active/checked at the one time. So when you press command-3, for example, the third mailbox will become checked and active. If you then navigate to the favourites bar and check the fourth mailbox, the view will change and your fourth mailbox will become active and in view. This is how you can still use the favourites bar even with more than 9 mailboxes. The first nine you can navigate to with keystrokes, the rest you need to check manually.

Re: Skype Apple Scripts
Fantastic, thanks for this, Alex. That all makes sense. I forgot about simply using keyboard commander. But I only like to use letters for keyboard commander located on the opposite side of the keyboard from the option key I've assigned to keyboard commander. Otherwise the keystrokes are awkward to execute. And like you I'm running out of keys to use for keyboard commander, so services might be the way to go.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Brian, One thing you could check in addition to Nick's thorough steps, is in the Navigation section of the VO Utility. The last pop-up menu just before the "Allow Cursor Wrapping" checkbox, says something about the Mouse Pointer and how it is affected by VO. I usually set it to "Follows VO Cursor" and it seems to alleviate the mouse pointer being stuck up at the Apple menu problem. I've experienced that frustration in the past as well. Some folks prefer that the Mouse Pointer ignores the VO cursor but I tend to have an affinity to everything following each other, not that I'm a follower or anything like that. You may also wish to turn VO off then back on to see if that smartens VO up a little, so it behaves properly. VO sometimes seems to misbehave after numerous settings changes and/or other multiple attempts at things. You are being very patient with all this, I'm glad that things are mostly working for you. Have a good one. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On 2013-05-28, at 9:21 PM, Nicholas Parsons wrote: > HI, > > Re getting rid of favourites: > • Do not use the VO-shift-space keystroke.

Re: Dragging and Dropping a mailbox to Favorites
Hi Nick, I'm using an iMac and don't use a track pad. How would I remove a mailbox from the Favorites Bar without a track pad?
