carbonite restore on the mac
Max and All: The restore process was ok for the most part. When you log into their web site you can have your files appear in a browser format. You then choose to restore all the files or selected files. I am a fairly new mac user and found the process wasn't to difficult. If you have to have a remote session, things can be a little more complicated. You have to download a program to allow them access and the allow button can be difficult to find and has a timer. If you get to a higher level of customer service reps you can get someone who can bypass this allow function if you just can't manage it.

Re: request. automatic updates. voice over feature.
the thing is, you can't compare vo with an app for office stuff. the vo behaviour is the same like on other platforms. Microsoft, such as others, gnome for example, provide accessibility information in their components. Jaws / Window-Eyes or orca on linux does the same as voiceover, it reads the accessibility information and does something usefull. Therefor, it should be geat if apple decides to bundle in a separate package. With a separate package, bugfixes will find their way faster to the enduser. ON microsoft you have naratoor, of a point of view it seems the same like voiceover, but yeah. The text-t-speech voices are packaged in different bundles, but yeah in the way of Apple thinking. It is possible to rollout an update with bugfixes, but sadly it isn't the fact. We have an tts bug since Lion with the dutch speaking voices, the same we had on ios4 that was fixed in ios 5. the english tts had been fixed to ml, but still in 10.9 we've got the bug in some languages. It is realy a shame on Apple or they don't care about the market outside us.

Re: Fantastical for Mac
Thanks again for your help, Christina. I found the calendar view like you said. But like you I couldn't seem to find any information on the events or reminders associated with each day. I am looking for a calendar much like Apple's Calendar but one that let's me view reminders along side events. Sadly, seems Fantastical for Mac won't quite do the trick. I find entering events in Apple's Calendar easy enough, so I don't think Fantastical for Mac offers me too much. Just out of interest, Christina, have you tried entering an event in Apple's Calendar lately? I've heard people talk about how easy it is with Fantastical, but it sounds much the same as with Calendar. I think Apple must have improved this. For instance, you can now just type Dinner on Saturday at 8, and Apple will create an event at 8PM next Saturday titled Dinner. Super easy.

Re: request. automatic updates. voice over feature.
I gotta interject here because you’re talking about voices. Those Dutch and English voices you’re talking about aren’t made by Apple. These are Vocalizer Expressive voices which are made by Nuance. So therefore, Apple can’t do anything with these voices because Nuance is in charge of them. As for your other comment, I don’t quite know what you mean by Apple should make individual bundles for Voiceover, but it sounds to me like you want Apple to make Voiceover just like Jaws or Window-Eyes. I’ve said this before and I’ll say that again, the day that Apple does that is the day I’ll stop using a computer. I want my screenreader experience to be as fast and responsive as it has been and if I want a piece of crap screenreader I’ll use Windows. Seriously, I don’t know why Voiceover not having updates is an issue?

Re: Copying files to another mailbox
Yes, all these methods are great. I will just caution, however, that it's still possible to lose messages this way if you're not careful. I recommend opening activity monitor with command-option-0 if you're moving large numbers of messages. It's worth while keeping an eye on what's happening, because it can often actually take much longer for these messages to move than it appears from the normal Mail interface. For instance, I copied a whole bunch of messages from my gmail account to a new work account. The messages all disappeared from the gmail mailbox, so I thought they had moved. I then deleted the gmail mailbox. I then got an error message saying some of the messages could not be moved. There was no way to get these messages back again. I guess what happened is that I deleted the mailbox before they had actually been moved, and by doing so I deleted the messages along with the mailbox. They did not appear in the new work mailbox, and no longer appeared in gmail. Cheers, Nic -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: request. automatic updates. voice over feature.
First, I'm sure most if not all people on this list would agree that VoiceOver is, in many respects, better than Windows screen readers. That is probably why we are using Macs with VoiceOver after all. However, the lack of frequent updates, if indeed updates to VoiceOver are less frequent than Windows screen readers, is not one of the reasons why VoiceOver is superior to Windows screen readers. VoiceOver is superior despite more frequent updates, not because of them. IN fact, one reason I like VoiceOver so much is that it generally gets free corresponding updates whenever the OS is updated. NOt like with JAWS where I need to go and buy a new version, if it exists, once the OS is updated. More importantly, however, updating VoiceOver more often will not make it somehow become Windows, and nobody is suggesting it should. Second, the fact that VoiceOver is built into the OS doesn't mean it can't receive specific updates even though nothing else in the OS is being updated. Safari is built in—you can't install the OS without it, you can't install it after the fact—but it receives specific updates. So to with other firmware updates, camera raw compatibility upgrades, etcetera. Moreover, the OS often receives incremental patches to fix specific bugs, such as security vulnerabilities, wifi performance or battery issues. There's no reason the OS couldn't receive specific updates to fix VoiceOver bugs. Third, the real issue VoiceOver doesn't receive more frequent upgrades, I suspect, is resources. Apple needs to decide how much money it is willing to designate to each area of the OS development. It only has a certain number of staff who work a set number of hours, so someone needs to decide how many staff will work on each app, feature, etcetera. It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that Apple designates fewer staff to developing VoiceOver than it does to other areas of the OS. Clearly there is more money to be made through integrating LinkedIn, or supporting multiple displays, etcetera, than improving VoiceOver. Even though Apple sets a high standard for integrating accessibility, at the end of the day it is still a public corporation and profit making is still its primary purpose and duty. Fourth, we're back to the issue that improvements to VoiceOver itself can only go so far. What is needed more is improved accessibility in the various apps we all access. I'm not sure how this works at Apple—whether the accessibility team is tasked with reviewing all apps to ensure they are accessible, or whether all developers have accessibility guidelines to follow. I'd hope the latter is true, and all developers know about accessibility and consider all code they write from an accessibility viewpoint. This would free up the accessibility team to focus on innovative accessibility features, rather than just fixing the problems created elsewhere in the OS. However, I suspect this is not the case, and much of the accessibility team's work consists of patching up or finding ways around accessibility problems created by innovative new developments made without accessibility in mind. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: request. automatic updates. voice over feature.
wth Shawn? The bug of the nuance voices isn't a vocalizer bug, cause on other platforms it doesn't exists. Apple does something weird with email addresses and urls to give it to the tts engine. What I conclude from your reaction is that you find no bugs in voiceover at all and so intermidiate updates aren't necessary. Let me tell you in all respect, I don't mean that VoiceOver have to be build by an other company, but a faster release cycle for voiceOver in particular should be very appriciated. A scren reader is as good as the underlying accessibility layer. If the information needed isn't provided the need to find workarounds etc. Take a look at talkbak for example there are several tb updates with bug fixes and new features without having to upgrade to a hole new os. It's the same like saying, ok the issues with apple mail, you have to wait till a new release next yar to get the annoying bugs fixed for imap services for example?

Hi Nuance make the voices. Apple make computers and other hardware and OS. Apple is the big boss. If Apple tell Nuance to jump. Nuance jump.

Re: Computer not authorized and Already authorized in iTunes? How to Resolve?
Hi, Tim, I double-checked and I get the same page as the one from the store menu with no “deauthorize all” button. It just indicates: “One computer is authorized to play content from this Apple ID” with no associated buttons. I did a text search on the page, and no such luck.

Re: Computer not authorized and Already authorized in iTunes? How to Resolve?
Hmm. It sounds like the problem is with the iPod itself as it is not somehow reading that your computer is using the same Apple ID. Did you have an older computer that you replaced with a newer one some time lately? iDevices also call it authorization when they pair with a computer and they specifically pair with an individual computer, correct Apple ID or not. This is to ensure that people don’t use iPods as a medium to transfer protected digital content between machines. If this was the case, other than some third party apps which can grab the iPod content, your kind of out of luck. You usually just need to restore your iPod and it will become re-attached to your new computer upon the restoration completion.

Re: Computer not authorized and Already authorized in iTunes? How to Resolve?
Hi, Tim, i just restored the iPod, but I did use a previous backup, most likely the configuration of settings that caused the problem in the first place. What I find odd is that there was only one backup listed. No, I upgraded to Mavericks, which could have been a trigger. I’m still wondering if I could delete or modify some iTunes user data somehow. thanks, teresa "Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough."--Richard P.

However, when I go to page 2 and above, voiceover says nothing if I push the down arrow or if I select text. I know the selection is being done because the Apple advisor told me so. I do have page wrap checked. I am wondering what the width should be for window length and width? I changed the window to 80 characters, and the other one to 24 lines. This didn't help.

Re: Manually updating iWorks programs in Mavericks
Hi, Here is how I got the problem solved: I switched the interface language of the OS to English and rebooted. I then ran System Updates and got the updates delivered through the system update method. That is: Pages, Numbers , and Keynote were all updated via the app stor when I had the interface language set to English instead of Danish. I then set the interface language back to Danish and rebooted, and that's it. All this after an idea from Apple Support. Hope someone out there finds this bit of info useful. Best regards Daniel Den 02-11-2013 00:46, Anne Robertson skrev: Hello Daniel, You could try contacting Apple to get a code to download the new version of the iWork suite. Alternatively, install Mountain Lion on an external disc and install iWork, then upgrade to Mavericks on that disc and you’ll get the new versions.

Hello Gigi, You need it to be set to Wrap to Window for editing to work with VoiceOver. Just press Cmd-Shift-w and all will be well.

Re: trouble with inaccessibility of pages after mavricks update
Hello Brooke, Have you updated to the new version of Pages along with Mavericks? I keep a test document which is a restaurant menu arranged into several tables and the new version of Pages works well with this document. Using the old version of Pages, I had to select the menus, which showed up in VoiceOver as highlighted spaces, and set them to Floating rather than inline to be able to access them and edit them. The way Pages now handles tables is a big improvement. Sadly, other aspects of Pages have gone down hill.

Resolved I Think, Was Re: Computer not authorized and Already authorized in iTunes? How to Resolve?
Hey, all, I erased my iPod and then set it up as a new one. I manually installed apps in iTunes and didn’t use an iCloud backup. I’ve gotten all 71 apps installed, including Papa sangre II. I strongly suspect this problem had to do with a stolen iPod from a few months back having the same name as the one that replaced it. I realize how silly that was now. I don’t know for sure that that was the cause, but things are looking much better now with a different name for my iPod. The reason I suspect this is that at one point, I was informed that my iPod Touch 5 was incompatible with Papa sangre II. I know this isn’t right. The iPod that was stolen from me was a 4.. thanks for all the help, tim and all. teresa "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.

Preffered language add, dictionary not working (Maverick)
Hello all! I just added Catalan as one of my preferred languages in Maverick, but, I just get corrections in English and spanish. The mac recognizes the text in both languages, says when the words in english and spanish are wrong, but, what can I do with the Catalan? Thank you very much for your ideas!

Papa Sangre II Not compatible with iPod
Hi, all, On another thread, i detailed my authorization issues in iTunes. Now that I have everything installed and reauthorized, I realized that I didn’t have Papa sangre II. Well, this time, instead of giving me the crazy authorization message, I got the “not compatible” one instead. I took a look in the app store and found out that it’s indeed not compatible with iPod Touch 5. It says “optimized for iPone 5”, and “compatible with iPhone and iPad”. well, that will teach me to check the compatibility section from now on. At least it alerted me to the fact that something was wrong. I was kind of wondering why it seemed sluggish when I played. ah, well.

Re: Papa Sangre II Not compatible with iPod
I installed it ok, and played for many levels, but I get the message when I sync that it will not be transferred from my computer. It has to be downloaded manually onto the iPod.

Troubles with updating and thoughts on it
Hi again a.m. I already wrote accessibility, but those poor folks have not answered me yet. They might not want to talk to me, considering that I still have an open case because of my braille display. I told him also that I have a problem with column view in finder. I said I couldn't do it. However, it turns out that is only partly true. I find out that I can use column view when I have a fairly limited number of folders that are coming up, but if I go into my documents where I have about 900 items that come up, Finder goes into busy mode. I didn't have this problem in Mountain lion. Just one more thing to write the poor folks and accessibility about. I would like to say something here because a lot of us are having our grief these days. I am still not sorry that I gave up Windows, Even with all this trouble.. You can call freedom scientific for example, about Jaws. But if it's determined that your problem has to do with windows, you might be told that you have to call somebody else. This happened to a blind friend of mine who had trouble with Excel and Jaws. After working with her, she was told that it was a Windows problem and not theirs. She still has trouble with her excel as far as I know. She has not a clue who she can call to get her to help with this since my husband was not able to figure out a solution for her. Luckily, she hasn't needed Excel very much lately. No matter what these days, if there is good things happening on my computer, I know who did it! If there are bad things happening on my computer, I still know who did it! I guess the one time when that statement might not be true is when you are talking about your Wi-Fi, four instance. Maybe HIMS will, one of these days, decide to no longer provide information to allow Apple to put my Braille Edge 40 on my Mac; then it won't be Apple that will receive my wrath, no matter what the reason. For the most part, however, getting rid of windows cut down on the number of times when someone else can say, somebody else did it.

Re: síri accessible. speakable workflows
You must enable it in the first tab, then set your listening method, then enable all the categories you want. Sometimes, toggling it off and then back on helps, for some reason. As to workflows, OS10.9 introduced the ability for workflows to be speakable, so they will execute when the system hears you speak their name. My understanding is that this is not really Siri-like, since you must match the workflow name. For instance, I could make a workflow to speak the time, but I could not make one to send an email to a contact name I speak. The workflow would need a name, and could not recognize a contact name as part of the command. I’ll have to read more, but that is how I see things for now.

Changing xml extension to html for bookshare books . . .
Last week, I wrote with increased frustration about my inability to read previously opened xml files from bookshare. It was suggested that I try replacing the xml extension with html. However, when I attempt to do this, I am being given two choices: saving either both page source or web archive, and in each case I must keep the web archive or xml extensions with the html extension. My understanding is that I must only have the html extension in order for this to work, but I am not getting a choice to replace, only "save as". It is not allowing me to save it merely as an html.

Saving documents in pages that are not in the pages format
Hi all, I have a word document i opened in pages. When i make changes and save, a dialogue box comes up asking if i want to save it in the pages format and in the documents location. I want to always keep the document as a word doc, and in the e books folder. In short, when I save a document, I want the format and location Should stay the same, but my changes should just be updated and saved. Is there a way to do this? And if so, how?

Re: Saving documents in pages that are not in the pages format
Hi, As far as I can tell, the new Pages makes that a little more challenging. It appears that Apple wants you to have Pages documents for the most part but allow you to export them to other formats. So, to do what you’re asking: 1. Up to the File menu. 2. Down to Export. 3. Right and down to Word. 4. Interact with the second Unknown where VO should announce Word, press return. 5. Press the Export button. Pages will probably ask you if you want to replace the item, press the Replace button. Sounds like a few more steps than you’re hoping for but, logical in some respects since you’re using the Pages app to manipulate Word documents.

Re: Changing xml extension to html for bookshare books . . .
Don’t try to save it as html. Hit enter on the file to rename it, put html in the place xml is on the end of your file, and when you open it it should open in safari. I simply copy and paste into text edit from there and save as rtf, but you can read it on safari if you want.

Re: Using Pages on the Mac
Hi Andrew, I think you have to export to MS Word format. It’s a separate item somewhere, not in the save dialog. I haven’t really used pages much, though I keep meaning to, so others on this list will be more help to you. But maybe this steers you in the right direction.

OCR action in Automator?
Hi all, I was messing around in Automator and discovered an action called “Run OCR”. It takes an image or PDF file as input, and returns text from the file as output. I’m curious to know if others have this option in Automator, or if it was somehow put there by Prizmo, my only OCR app on this machine. I most definitely plan to put this to good use, but I wonder if it is available to everyone or only those who have certain apps installed. So, if anyone who has OS10.9 but no OCR apps, or at least not Prizmo, could check, that’d be great. To do so, open Automator, create a new file, choose “workflow” from the templates, and hit enter. Interact with the “actions descriptions split view” group, then the “actions library split view” group, then choose “recently added” from the libraries table and see if “Run OCR” appears in the actions table. Thanks in advance. Have a great day, Alex (msg sent from Mac Mini) mehg...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
