handytech braillestar 40/0 and 10.9
Hi listers, What I have heard of a friend of mine is that he has issues with his Handytech under 10.9. The braille display won't be found, when he boots from the recovery, braille goes well. Anyone else experienced this one? :) (this prevent me from upgrading to 10.9) tia -Peter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Crome and Mac.
Hi all. I have just started to use Crome with CromeVox and Voice-Over working at the same time. The latest version is far more impressive then the previous versions.

Re: Focus display and Mavericks
Hi, How do you permit your braille cursor to navigate the app without moving the keyboard or voice-over cursor, or is the voice-over cursor the Brialle cursor?

1password
Dear listers, I'm running into some interface issues with the new version of 1password. How can I create a new password in 1password version 4? Here's what I'm trying to do. I open 1password, and just as in version 3, I can go to the sidebar, interact, and find the passwords item there. Once selected, I stop interacting and I then open the file menu and choose: new password. A new dialog comes up. Here, I land in a field where I assume I can specify the purpose of the new password. I see 4 items here: from left to right an image, then an edit field for the purpose, then a favorite checkbox, and a share button. Obviously, all I need is the edit field, so I type in what this new password will be for. After typing that in, I'd like to generate a secure password, which gave no problems at all in the previous version. Now, I stop interacting, to broaden the focus of things I can look at. I then find, that I'm on favorite, unchecked checkbox, so I move right. I then hear the sound of a popover appearing, and I'm stuck. It says that my password is 1% strength, which is bad of course. So how can I proceed from here? I don't see a password at all. I used to see a field with the newly generated password, and some sliders beside it, to adjust its complexity. Now, I'm stuck in this popover, and my focus in VO is randomly being reset to just before the toolbar, so I'm being flung away from where I was looking. If you know how to get around this, please let me know. Thanks, Paul. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Focus display and Mavericks
There’s no real way of moving an independent Braille cursor, saved for the ability to pan the display. The VO cursor expands the word you’re on (not being able to turn this off is a pity), e.g. when you’re panning through a document in TextEdit or such., and gets highlighted in other contexts, but it eventually jumps to the next element as you pan to that new element.

Thank you all who responded to my menu extras access shortcut key wows. It definitely doesn’t work here.

Re: Focus display and Mavericks
Hi there Okay, you want to press the space with the bb sign in order to select the previous roter item. Then you press dots 5-6 to select the next roter item. I am busy making a file of general brill display commands. I think they are in the voice over menu anyway, but I have looked there lately. When I get it done, do you want it? I'll have to do it a little later since I am about to get ready and get on the bus. Regards, Gigi On Nov 12, 2013, at 10:08 PM, Kristeen Hughes wrote: > Thanks,. This info does help.

Re: Focus display and Mavericks
Hi there again I haven't got on the bus yet, and I was thinking about what I had said last time. I just realized I said wrong. The command I sent to you before was going from different rotor items to and from. Other rotor items. I'm not sure, but I think if you roll that wheel on the focus 40 that it will start selecting text. I seem to remember that I would forget and Wohlt and it would start selecting text for me when I didn't want it. It may work to first set the rotor two words or lines as you need them and then use the wheel.

Re: Is it true in Mavericks that iTunes contact syncing has gone?
No I agree. Syncing to the cloud is the way forward. I reckon one day only a minority will have a personal computer and instead opt for a tablet computer.

Apparently, I found some articles on the net that say that it is no longer possible to sink your contacts from iPhone to mac via USB cabel but one is forced to use iCloud. Personally I don't use iCloud and I don't know about others but for me I personally don't use iCloud and for some reason wouldn't feel safe or like the idea of submitting my contacts up into the cloud. I mean I'm no criminal lol but stripping this functionality away from my mac, iPhone and iTunes I feel isn't really fair on the end user espually if they've upgraded to 10.9 and have this thrown upon them. I am more than happy to submit stuff into the cloud but contacts for my part and for others is something I won't do for any cloud service. I just wondered if it is true and how do others feel about the change. Also just so you know, I'm not old lol I'm for change but for me this feels like its going in the wrong direction. I like the idea of syncing to iTunes and having my iPhone and mac backup to the software locally. That's me. How about you guys do you like the new move?

Hi Andrew, In facebook, interact with the heading, find the link and activate it. This happens in some pages, but not all. In Mail, press command-comma to go to preferences. find the signatures button and press it. Here you’ll find information about customizing your signature. Make sure you aren’t interacting with any tables and find the add button. Do this with VO navigation. Type your name and signature in the fields. Then dismiss the preferences dialog.

Re: 1password
Sorry, I can't work this out either. I usually just log into a website and let 1Password Mini save the login item for me. I'm happy making up my own passwords. I can't work out how to get 1Password to generate passwords though in version 4 which is not good seeing as this is one of the main features it advertises. Best of luck—I hope someone else can be of more help. NIc On 13/11/2013, at 10:04 PM, Paul Erkens wrote: Dear listers, I'm running into some interface issues with the new version of 1password. How can I create a new password in 1password version 4? Here's what I'm trying to do. I open 1password, and just as in version 3, I can go to the sidebar, interact, and find the passwords item there. Once selected, I stop interacting and I then open the file menu and choose: new password. A new dialog comes up. Here, I land in a field where I assume I can specify the purpose of the new password. I see 4 items here: from left to right an image, then an edit field for the purpose, then a favorite checkbox, and a share button. Obviously, all I need is the edit field, so I type in what this new password will be for. After typing that in, I'd like to generate a secure password, which gave no problems at all in the previous version. Now, I stop interacting, to broaden the focus of things I can look at. I then find, that I'm on favorite, unchecked checkbox, so I move right. I then hear the sound of a popover appearing, and I'm stuck. It says that my password is 1% strength, which is bad of course. So how can I proceed from here? I don't see a password at all. I used to see a field with the newly generated password, and some sliders beside it, to adjust its complexity. Now, I'm stuck in this popover, and my focus in VO is randomly being reset to just before the toolbar, so I'm being flung away from where I was looking. If you know how to get around this, please let me know. Thanks, Paul. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Track Changes or Text Attributes with Pages
Hello Ibraheem, My husband and I teach a Pages course via Skype and teamviewer. We’re currently updating the materials for Mavericks and the new Pages. We charge €25 per unit and there are 5 units. However, not everyone wants all the units. The price is in euros because we live in France and, of course, you have to take into consideration time differences between France and wherever you are.

I'm sorry for all the weird words in the message, I was using dictation for that. LOL. But yes, I do agree. I think people should use iCloud to sync their contacts and calendars with their phones.

Re: Is it true in Mavericks that iTunes contact syncing has gone?
Synching to the cloud is the way to go. The cloud has saved my tail at least twice when it comes to contacts, book marks, and license key documents. Drob box does great for storing disk images of apps. Between those two sources, reinstalls, when necessary, are practically no effort at all.

Driver question
Hi guys, I have a situation and any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a Romeo Pro 50, on a Mac mini running Mountainlion. I am using Louis Braille the free translator, and a usb to serial or parallel not sure which one, I think it's the latter, anyway. I have the printer connected, and know the printer is communicating with the mac. I tried to add printer and picked something and it shot out a ton of gibberish so I know that even though that wasn't the right driver it does communicate with the connector and the Mac. We have migrated from windows here at work, and I really don't want to have to go back and use duxbury and windows for just this, if possible. Is there a driver, that will work to make the Romeo pro 50 single-sided printer work with the mac as an embossing option under Louis braille, or am I totally missing something. I know that there are no braille translation solutions for the mac outside of the Louis braille and not even sure it is still being supported even though it is an awesome addition. Anyway, if you could help that would be great. Let me know what driver if any will work, or if there is a programmer out there that really wants to tackle something I don't care what the driver looks like as long as it runs. Thanks for any help you can give. Take care and talk to you soon. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Is it true in Mavericks that iTunes contact syncing has gone?
Yes, I agree. At this point, there’s one app iTunes won’t sync for me which iCloud will. I do admit that iTunes was faster when putting a whole bunch of apps on my iPod at once, but otherwise, I am using the cloud more and more.

Two Unrelated Issues: Messages on the Mac not working correctly and how do I get rid of a huge block of "reply to" recipients in my contacts list
Howdy all. I have a MacBook with Mountain Lion, and I cannot read my messages on it. It tells me, for example, that I have two unread messages, but I can't find them. they are on my iPhone, but I cannot get to them on the Mac. All Messages does on the Mac is put me in a position to compose or add a recipient, not to read anything. As to my contacts list, I have a ridiculous amount of "contacts" which consist of "reply to" recipients, such as Facebook replies. How can I: a. get rid of them all at once, and b. prevent such addresses from being saved as contacts in the first place? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Identify system sound
Hi, The airplane sound was custom, and I’ve figured out it was an error sound.

How do I change system voice?
Hi folks, I’ve looked but can’t find where to change the system voice for the Mac. I had Serena as my system voice before upgrading, but now Alex is back and, sorry, but I am not a big fan of his. I don’t mean voice over, but the system voice which tells you when a reminder notification comes up or when your battery is going flat. VO voices are all fine. I’ve looked in system prefes but for the life of me can’t find it. Thanks for any help. Lisette -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Is it true in Mavericks that iTunes contact syncing has gone?
Hi, Just make sure that Contacts is on in Settings/iCloud on your iPhone and that Contacts is checked on in the Services Table in the iCloud pane of System Prefs on your Mac. That should do it. After the sync is complete, just navigate over to the Groups Table and select iCloud to see what contacts were moved up to the Cloud. If everything is good in the iCloud list, then, if you’re brave, you can get rid of the same list of contacts from the On My Mac section. This way, you shouldn’t get duplicates and you’ll ensure that when you update a specific contact, it’s the one that will be synced with your iPhone.

How well is terminal working in Mavericks?
Hi, Looking through the list I see several people are using the OS X terminal on a regular basis. Is the terminal accessibility any better in Mavericks than earlier versions? I always found terminal accessibility a bit of a pain on the Mac and I try it again every few versions. Last time around -- with Snow Leopard -- it was generally usable but things like not getting the output of commands read and always having to review after every command really started to grate after an hour or two. But I've beaten another laptop to death and if I felt I could live in the Mac terminal for a chunk of my day then that would be a possibility -- with the terminal accessibility as it was though it was a deal breaker. Otherwise I'd be running a Linux VM under Fusion and that doesn't buy me much. Use case is primarily software development on a range of remote hosts as well as a chunk of sysadmin and DBA type work.

Associating Braille tables with a voice in activities Vloiceover doesn't seem to work
Dear Listers, I've just spent an inordinate amount of time trying to set up a new activity in Voiceover utilities that would associate a Braille translation table with a particular voice so that if I should choose it, my Braille tables will have changed automatically. When I saw that such a choice existed, I got really excited. The trouble is that this association doesn't seem to stick. Has anyone else had a go and succeeded to do so? I don't want to report it in case I'm making a mistake somewhere. Best wishes Andrew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: How well is terminal working in Mavericks?
It’s definitely not as good as using Speakup, Emacspeak, DOS screen readers etc. I use it happily enough, but my job doesn’t depend on it. Emacspeak more or less works on the Mac, but you have to like Emacs (which I do though many venerable persons don’t) and it can be time-consuming to tweak initially. Terminal isn’t terrible though, especially if you’ve got quicknav on and can review output quickly just with the arrow keys. Of course that clashes with history, but the trackpad might be a good substitute as well. Chers.

xcode5:resolution to drag and drop
hello: Just a quick update. I played with this stupid drag and drop for a while and finally got it to work. here's the solution. With your nib or storyboard open in one side and the file you want to work with on the other (in assistant editor), interact with the storyboard and find the table with the controls. interact with it and find the row with the control you need to work with. Move to the left column, use vo+space, route the mouse to the voiceover cursor with vo+command+f5, then fo+shift+space to click the mouse. move to your inspecter and find the outlet/action/etc you wish to use. vo+command+f5 again, vo+shift+f3 to turn off cursor tracking, vo+command+shift+space to lock the mouse button down. move to the asisstant editor and vo+command+f5 to move the mouse there, wait until you hear xcode has new window, then vo+command+shift+space and then turn cursor tracking back on.

Re: xcode5:resolution to drag and drop
Good job. I guess I just assumed you had those opened side by side and didn’t think to ask. You can just select a control in the table with keyboard focus as normal and you don’t need that step of routing the mouse to the control.

Re: xcode5:resolution to drag and drop
I always did have them open side by side. the bit about clicking the control was the only way I can actually make this work. the method mentioned before doesn't work for me, maybe it's an XCode 5 issue--I'm not really sure.

Re: Track Changes or Text Attributes with Pages
Anne, I might be interested in something like this.

Track changes do not only highlight changes, but it also indicates whether the change is a deletion or an addition, or a format change. Anne Robertson, who is the guru on Pages with VoiceOver and on this list can probably give you more information. I believe she was able to get some use from track changes but it's not fully accessible.

Re: Is Winamp accessivle on the mac?
Right. In preferences in iTunesin the toolbar select the Playback button. Stop interacting and the next item should be the Crossfade songs checkbox. With that turned on you can pick the time from 1 to 12 seconds. That said, if the current track has four seconds of silence at the end the crossfade isn't going to sound quite the way you would expect.

best way to import music into itunes
I have a couple of mp3 tracks on an sd which I’d like to import into my itunes library. Would I use “add to library” and then paste the filenames in or is there a better way.

Re: best way to import music into itunes
When you add stuff to your ITunes Library, best is to use cmd+o and then use the regular file browser dialog which pops up. You do not just paste names of files in to this but use it to open files like any open file dialog. Make sure, however, that all your meta data tagging is correct as to album, artist, and so on. If you need to , you can use ITunes to correct any missing or bad tags. Sent from my Mac, the only computer with full accessibility for the blind built-in!
