Re: Reading Word by Word in 10.85

2013-11-02 Thread Teresa Cochran
It depends which application you’re using in some circumstances. With VO, you 
can start quicknav by pressing left and right arrow keys at the same time till 
you hear “quicknav on” and then use up and left arrow or right arrow at the 
same time to change to words, then use down arrow to go by word. Or the non-VO 
way in text documents is to use option-left and right arrows to go to previous 
and next words. You can get these to work on a web page most of the time by 
interacting with a text area on it.

HtH,
Teresa

On the other hand, there are different fingers.

Re: gmail?

2013-11-02 Thread Teresa Cochran
The more messages you have on Gmail, especially in the all mail folder, the 
more problems you have. I had twenty thousand messages in my all-mail folder, 
so things were weird for about the first day, then settled down. It would be 
great not to have this folder exposed in my mail apps, though, as it still has 
a lot of messages, and I do have some syncing issues. By the way, if you don’t 
have the all mail folder showing in the gmail settings on the site, it just 
puts the same messages in your inbox over and over. Hopefully, this setting 
will be modified in Apple Mail to allow the hiding of the all mail folder, as 
it was previously. On Gmail’s side, if they didn’t have such a nonstandard imap 
interface, things would be a bit simpler. I think they have it this way so that 
messages can be archived and viewable on the site.

Teresa

Slow down; you'll get there faster.

You probably need an app like Sound Flower. Don't understand it but 
think it acts as a virtual sound card to your mac and allows system

Go to www.applevis.com and search for recording podcasts. I just did one on how 
to record VO and my USB microphone. I use Audacity, but the general idea is the 
same for any recording software. Yes, you will need Soundflower, but it’s small 
and free.

Re: gmail?

2013-11-02 Thread Nicholas Parsons
Showing All Mail shouldn't be too much of a problem in Mavericks. Even though 
All Mail is shown on Mavericks, Mail only keeps one copy of each message. It 
just adds an XML tag to the end of each file to tell Mail which folders/labels 
it should show up in. In iOS All Mail shouldn't be a problem as it only 
downloads the most recent few messages anyway. All Mail will give you 
duplicates on any Mac still running Mountain Lion, though Mail seems to be 
pretty smart in the way it handles these duplicates now. I never really notice 
them, not like in the old days when large numbers of duplicates would show up 
in the search results. Plus, if you trash a message in a folder, Mail knows to 
trash the All Mail copy as well.

User notification center asking permission, over & over

Hi all,

I’m a big fan of Launch Bar & typically, I use it constantly.  Since upgrading 
to Mavericks, every time Launch bar starts up, user notification center asks if 
I want launch bar to be able to access my contacts, reminders, & calendar.  It 
asks me every time!

Is there a setting I can tweak to let Mac know always allow?  That use to be a 
button, but it seems gone.

In privacy, launch bar is checked for each of the above items.

Thanks,

serena

Hello All:
Well, my problems restoring my computer are deminishing.  The biggest problem I 
have at present is that I followed the directions to find the voice called 
Serena and she is not in the customise voices location.  It is likely that she 
bit the dust when everything else did.  An internet search revealed that she 
reside on the UK Apple site.  When I tried to go there to get her back I was 
told that Safari couldn't find the server or some such nonsense.  Perhaps one 
of the UK people has an idea of how I can get her back?

two gmail questions

After my computer restoration, I have two gmail questions.
1.  How do I put the bcc field in to messages I compose on a permanent basis?
2.  I have several mailboxes I have added and I think they are in the gmail 
folders.  VO says these folders are collapsed.  How do I expand them so I can 
see my other mailboxes?  I have mail set to classic view.  Is this correct?
I am in Mountain Lion.
Thanks for all help,

That’s odd.  When you go to VO utility, speech, customize voices, in the search

Mountain Lion & Mavericks.

I’m in the US, not sure if that makes a difference.

Re: User notification center asking permission, over & over

2013-11-02 Thread Traci Duncan
It is one of those programs that can launch things quickly & gives you several 
ways to create shortcuts to perform tasks.

Just a few examples:
If I type a period, I then type an web address, only the name though.  So type 
period, then amazon or google, then hit enter.  That page opens.
There are many search templates, and you can create your own.  For example: I 
can begin to type goo, which brings up google search template.  I then type my 
query and press enter.  There is one for eBay, and I created one to search 
Etsy.  I can type store, then perform a search inside the iTunes store.

There are tons of ways to use the program.  I know in my own experience, I’ve 
only scratched the surface.  It is one of my favorite ways to shutdown; I just 
begin typing shut, and it is the 1st result to pop up.

I highly recommend.  ;)

focus won't stay on menus in Skype

Hi all,
I don’t usually use Skype, but I will need it for today. I was trying to check 
for updates, change my status, and generally explore the menus, but cannot: 
when I press ctrl-f2 or vo-m, vo says “apple menu” but then jumps right back to 
the Skype window. Nothing I do is able to keep focus on the menus, so I cannot 
access anything that is not in the main skype windows. What’s going on? Is 
there an update that fixes this? Thanks.

External Hard Drive Suggestions

2013-11-02 Thread Brian Fischler
Hey all, 

I know we covered this awhile back but amazingly I couldn't find the thread. I 
am finally getting around to getting a external hard drive as the last one I 
got wouldn't mount properly so I had to return it. I had gotten a seagate but 
with all the issues I had with it, I don't think I want to try and get another 
seagate. Can anyone suggest one they have had success with for the mac. I plan 
to use it as external storage for music and backups along with a partition for 
time machine. Thanks,

Try the pass port family, I just purchased one 2 gigs from western digital
if memory serves me right it was around $149.00 It supports USB 3.0, but not
thunderbolt still plenty fast and not a major costly drive. It comes with
software for both windows and Mac though I have never used the software I
run time machine. They have smaller sizes if 2 gig is more then you want.

Hi, here is the URL.

There is a 30 day trial and if I remember correctly, it was $30?  I’m not sure 
on that.

I’ve really enjoyed it and find it very useful.  It’s been my only big Mac app 
purchase so far.  Lol!

Re: two gmail questions

Hi Jean,
To show the cc label, go to system prefs in mail (command comma) and choose the

Hope that’s what you meant. Sorry if it wasn’t.

When I scanned with clamxav, it did not scan my mails. I think it is because my

How do you remove infected files. Can you quicklook them so that you know what

Re: External Hard Drive Suggestions

2013-11-02 Thread arthur gindin
i've been using an HD with 2 drives set up to duplicate each other. if 
one fails you are supposed to remove the bad one and the other will be 
duplicated on the new one.  this procedure failed when my WD drive 
failed and WD no longer had one of that size!  i wound up paying a 
technician to rescue my info onto the new drive (supplied under 
warranty)  WD gives you 30 days after sending the new one to transfer 
your data.  it worked well to save the data, but there was no financial 
savings.


i monitor this group for my blind 13 y/o grandchild who uses a MacAir 
because the portable being issued by the school is not accessible.  the 
keys are too sensitive and do not allow her to check the Braille overlays.

Re: External Hard Drive Suggestions

2013-11-02 Thread Phil Halton
I bought a LaCie 2tb external drive from the apple store. It is both USB and 
Firewire800, and can be used as an external boot drive. This model (2tb) is no 
longer made, but LaCie is good stuff, and Apple sells it in their stores. It's 
good to have a combo drive USB/Firewire, so you can use it as a boot drive if 
desired. For the Air, which has no firewire port, I bought a 
thunderbolt/firewire adaptor
BTW: I have it partitioned into 4 partitions, one each as a boot partition for 
my iMac and MacbookAir, and two data partitions which I don't currently use.

I agree regarding the LaCie hard drives I have a one Tera byte LaCie Wave
from I think 2008 or 2007 and have never had a problem. Even now I consider
it one of the fastest externals I use. Not surprised Apple is selling there
drives.

Help with Finder

2013-11-02 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi guys

I finally got back into Mavericks, and that is the root of my problem. I can't 
use my Braille Edge 40 and Bluetooth right now and have to use it in USB. The 
other thing, and somebody on this list said they had this problem too, I can't 
seem to be able to use column view. Every time I do I get Finder busy and I 
have to bail out. But here is the thing that's driving me crazy and I want to 
know if any of you have figured out a solution. Since I had to go to List view, 
I can't seem to paste files into my folder. Yes I know you have to get on top 
of the thing, but every time I try to move a file into the folder I wanted, it 
said it was moved but it wasn't. I got it pasted finally by briefly going into 
column mode. Actually, what I did was to go to the desktop and choose the 
folder, which fortunately, I had an alias for it. When I got right to the 
folder that's when I went into column view to do the paste. So now what do I do 
beside write accessibilityápple.com, that is? I can stay in mavericks, and I 
will unless I get too annoyed by the busy.

Regards,
Gigi

Re: Anyway to get mail to follow rules in IOS

2013-11-02 Thread Terje Strømberg
Hi

Use your mac.

You need to change gmail on web from standard view to basic html view. Here is 
a link to a how to do that 
http://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/24763/how-can-i-convert-gmail-from-standard-view-to-basic-html-view

Other may fill in and add details or correct. No problem.

You may place a check mark in step 15. it will filter the most of your emails 
already stored, but it may take several days to filter. That scared me first 
time from check mark this because it looked scarying wtih so many emails 
falling down from the net like an never ending river.

In my opinion a filter option is  a great tool to keep order in our inbox. 
Noticed that some have 3000 - 4000 emails after 3 days without checking the 
email. I like many others are using gmail. A very good email client. Accesible. 
Filtering using Label and filter. You can use the Mail account built in IOS 
with gmail inside Mail IOS. If you make a new Label or a Map(this is the same 
i.e..Label is an map in your mailbox list under inbox, sent, deleted etc). 

If you don't have an gmail account you ca register one first on google.com 
Don't remember exactly how, but it is pretty straight forward and not 
dangerous. Chose IMAP if it is an option between IMAP or POP. IMAP synchronize 
email between iPhone, iPod, Mac and iPad. If you want to use the built in Mail 
program in IOS you register first on google.com then go to Settings > Mail > 
add Account. Find gmail in the list.. If memory serves, you only have to set 
username and password inside the built in IOS MAIL IF you already have signed 
an account on google.com 

Making a Label or Map.
1. Log in to gmail.
2. Go to Settings > Label. Settings are in the upper right corner. A window 
pops up and you find the Label knob.Above the inbox there are also an link 
called make a filter and after above the inbox. Opening this, the same window 
opens.
3. Find the text box. Type the name viphone for the Label or Map(it is the 
same). Hit setup knob. Now you have a Label or Map in your list under Mailbox 
i.e. inbox, sent, all e-post etc.

Make a filter rule. It is easy. Gmail is accessible and straight forward in 
this case at least.
1. Find the knob Filter in the same window above the table in a list above the 
table. Hit filter. Now we want to filter viph...@googlegroups.com to go into 
the Label or Map you made.
2. Find the knob "make a new filter". A new window with a table opens. Set a 
filter. Make search criteria.
3. Find the text field "from". Do not type anything here - leave this field 
empty. 
4. Tab to "to" field Here you type viph...@googlegroups.com. 
5. Tab to subject. Leave this field empty.
6. Tab to "cotain these words". Leave this field empty.
7. Tab to "do not contain". Leave this field empty.
8. Tab to have attachment. Leave this empty.
9. Before you tab to next step, be aware of that the only field you enter any 
text or mark is in the field "to". Tab to the knob "next step" A new window 
containing an headline called "make a filter" a table called something lile 
chose an action or command for this filter.
10. Tab to jump over the inbox. Place a check mark here. Very important.
11. Tab to mark it with a star. Leave this empty.
12. Tab to use the label. Make a check mark here. Very important.
13. Tab once to a know with a drop down list.Find the Label or Map called 
"viphone and hit it. Important: check that the Label viphone are chosen.
14. Tab to "delete it". Leave this field empty.
15. Tab to "do also use this filter on the conversations below. Leave this 
field empty. Very important that this field is empty. You can chose to check 
mark this step if you want to filter the mail you already have in your 
mailboxes. The reason why i did not recommended this is that it can take 
several days if you have 20 000 emails +. The emails will be filtered htough 
e.e. old emails.
16. Tab to "make filter". Finished. 

Now all the e-post sent to viph...@googlegroups.com will be sent to the label 
or map called viphone. This Label will reside in the last list under your 
inbox, sendt e-mail, delete etc. If it do not work, you have entered wrong 
address i.e. email address, period. It works. If you do exactly as described 
above. 

You will receive exactly the same 3000 emails as before, but the will be in the 
label viphone. You have therefore more space in your inbox for non list emails. 
You can do these steps for any list or from any sender. You can test the other 
options and delete those filters which do not works. Let us think about 8000 
thousand emails. You can have 4 Labels or Maps containing 2000 in each. And 
only have 70 emails in your inbox with more private subjects ore none email 
list post.

Take care

Re: Help with Finder

2013-11-02 Thread Maria and Joe Chapman
HI.  I am in list view and had no problem moving a file.

Here is how I do it.

1 locate the file you want to move.
2. press command c
3. navigate to the folder you want to paste the item in to
4. open the folder and press command option v.
I have found that opening the folder is more accurate than just being on top of 
it.

I hope this helps.
Cheers
