fusion question

2013-11-21 Thread don bishop
I’ve recently moved to a mac from windows and don’t regret the change at all. 
However, there are a few windows apps I’d still like to run, so I will probably 
go with Fusion 6., especially since no sighted assistance is required to 
install.
I still have my old pc running windows 7 and would like to use the fusion 
migrating assistant to get windows onto the machine.  Before I start I’d like 
to know if there are any issues using the assistant and also if it’s possible 
to run it without sighted assistance.

Many thanks,

Don

Re: What do all of you guys think of this?

2013-11-21 Thread Karen Lewellen

Hi Tim, all.
I subscribe to a weekly newsletter from about.com specifically focused on 
the  mac  and ios.  what I read is that absolutely everyone has concerns 
serious security concerns about this use of icloud.  Particularly noted in 
maverick is the Keychain, which fortunately has to be turned on.  Still 
it 
gives a fine example of just how easy the risks can be.  you are given a 4 
digit number for the security, and there are only 1000 possible 
combinations making it practically effortless for someone to reach 
your passwords credit card information, documents contacts, and anything else 
you use icloud for.
I still remember the senior writer with wired magazine who got hacked and 
all of his family photos and  personal data  wiped because someone on 
twitter 
liked his handle 
and could do it for kicks.  I respect that the Internet is basically cheese 
cloth  in general, but one should have a choice.  More and more places like 
amazon are taking the force into icloud approach because everyone is doing 
it.
Individuals should be able to protect  and store their information as they 
prefer, not as a trend dictates in my view.
Add that if you use facebook, your contacts are lifted when they make a 
shadow profile on you, including people not on facebook at all.

just my take,
By the way, the mac newsletter of Tom Nelson is rather informative 
actually.  apple general I mean.

Hi Ray. 
Another thing that I noticed yesterday, is that when I hijack audio from safari 
using the instant on extra, the voice over sounds stop working. They don’t work 
even if I stop recording and hijacking audio. 
The only way to get my VO sounds back afterwards, is to turn voice over off and 
on. 
Can you confirm this for me so that we can  send feedback to them?

Thanks.
Nektarios.

Hello,

A couple things here, you are not forced to use iClouds key chain feature.  
Actually, it’s disabled by default.  And I could be mistaken but, that writers 
Apple ID was hacked via social engineering, not a actual hack as it were.

Hi,

You don’t have to sync your contacts via iCloud.  You don’t even need to log 
into iCloud if you don’t want to.  This article in my opinion, seems to be 
pointing out concerns  for people running servers, for small business, etc.  
I’m not saying the concerns aren’t valid, but they really only apply to a small 
percentage of Mac users.

Re: What do all of you guys think of this?

2013-11-21 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

Yes Ricardo, you are correct that the iCloud Keychain service is off by 
default.  A couple further notes, in order to get at these passwords, the 
person would have to first either get past your computer password, your Apple 
ID password on the iCloud site or past your iDevice passcode.  It is, of 
course, possible that a user could have their computer or iDevice not secured 
properly either thus giving easier access to the Keychain.  The Keychain is 
encrypted so is not necessarily easy to crack even if you figure out the 
passcode.  There is, though, the possibility of simply trying some web-sites 
from the users history to see if they’ve are a part of your saved passwords.  
Some proper security protocols should certainly virtually eliminate this threat.

I am a very trusting person though and may be considered naive, so don’t take 
my opinions as gospel.

Later…

Re: Photos in iTunes?

2013-11-21 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I’m confused as to why you’re using iTunes to deal with photos.  iTunes can be 
used to sync photos to your iDevices but I believe that you should set up the 
albums or events you wish synced from within iPhoto first then simply sync the 
specific items.

Not sure if that was the direction you were going, but hopefully it helps some.

sell Fusion for half price or something I'd like to take advantage of that. 
With the holiday week I don't think my demos will happen before Thanksgiving 
and the associated days of shopping, but I am not sure. So, bottom line: 
historically, is there a reason to expect VMWare to discount Fusion in the next 
week or so, or should I just go ahead and buy it now? I don't mind if I get it 
and then they have a sale for the first time, but if they do something every 
year I'd like to know so I can hold off. Thanks in advance.

2013-11-21 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I use Cloud services for just about everything.  Google Apps is a Cloud 
service, DropBox is a Cloud service and Apple’s iCloud is a Cloud service.  
Even Carbonite is a Cloud backup service.  In my opinion, these are safe and 
secure options.  Sure there are likely ways of hacking into some of this stuff, 
but then again, just about everything on the Net has the possibility of being 
intercepted in some manner or another, even when you’re simply surfing. or 
sending eMails.

Re: What do all of you guys think of this?

2013-11-21 Thread Teresa Cochran
In the most recent updates, it’s necessary to use the cloud to sync contacts. 
However, you could enter your contacts manually on each device, or you could 
simply not upgrade. Also, it’s possible to use operating systems that don’t 
rely on cloud computing as much as apple, such as linux or android, or even 
Windows., though I believe microsoft has exchange servers for online syncing.

Re: MacBook Pro 2010 with Mavericks for sale

2013-11-21 Thread CJ Daniel
Wow!

I purchased a “Last year’s over stock” MBP from the Apple store for only $50 
more than that.  So, maybe I’m way off base here, but that seems a wee bit 
high.  Never the less, I wish you luck with your sale.

macbooks are identifiable by nifty names, colors whatever, I am  wondering

Apex + Iphone 4S

2013-11-21 Thread Ibraheem Fakir
Dear List,

I’ve recently acquired an Apex and wanted to pair it with my iPhone 4S running 
iOS 6.0.1. I’ve tried to pair the phone with the apex through the 
general/accessibility/braille menu on the phone. Every time I try to pair it, I 
get a message that says “iPhone could not load driver for Apex”. For kicks and 
giggles, I tried pairing the two through the Apex’s bluetooth menu and after 
entering an authentication code on the apex, my phone prompted me to do the 
same and both devices were paired. I did so under the hands free menu on the 
Apex. It says that the device is paired and active. I know that I can’t use the 
braille display like this and to do so I’ll need to start the pairing from the 
phone. Any pointers on this? Where do I get the driver it needs?

Thanks a million!

Best,

Ibraheem

Re: audio hijack pro success.

2013-11-21 Thread Cheryl Homiak
That doesn't happen to me either. My sounds have always been and still are 
working when I hijack safari. With Mavericks, you definitely have to use 
instant on to do hijacking of safari and at this point this requires the beta; 
you probably already know this since one gets a message about this at some 
point when opening audio hijack pro if the beta isn't being used.

be acceptable to You, Lord,

 Hi everyone. 
 About a few minutes ago I launched audio hijack pro and I was prompted to 
 update to the latest public beta that solved all mavericks 
 incompatibilities. 
 Thanks to Ray that alerted us to the on going development, I new what to 
 expect of course and it worked like a charm. 
 I am now able to hijack audio from safari again with no problems. 
 Back to being a happy mac user again.

How do you create a work ring tone on your iPhone 5c?

2013-11-21 Thread Chenelle Hancock
Hello everyone! I have a friend that got sent a ring tone via her Instant 
Messenger. However, she doesn't know how to copy and paste the ring tone so she 
can use it as her main ring tone? How do you create a ring tone that's been 
sent to you as your main ring tone on your iPhone 5c?

 This article will explain why.
 Basically, I have no interest or intention of using the service so 
 unfortunately where does that leave me.
 P.S.
 I hope I'm not the only one.
 In particular, really concerned about syncing contacts
 Guess you could say I'm paranoid about my contact data up in space.

Any fixes for bluetooth audio and Voiceover in Mavericks?

2013-11-21 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
A few weeks ago i was testing a bluetooth headset but had to send it back. 
During that time I saw the problem where Voiceover audio is lost when the 
headset is not found. I am getting ready to get some Aftershokz Bluez 
headphones and may sometimes wish to use them with my Mac. So, does anyone know 
if those audio problems were fixed in Mavericks, or will I still run into a 
complete lack of speech if I turn the headphones off or walk out of range? 
Thanks.

Re: Safari default home page has changed.

2013-11-21 Thread Kevin Gibbs
Okay.  I've tried all your suggestions.  google was my default homepage 
under Preferences General.  I reset it without luck.  further, I chose to 
Hide Favorites Bar and that didn't change a thing.  so, I'm stuck for ideas.

Curiously, I've also noticed a bizarre new behavior when navigating this 
group.  I can't read the subject lines of messages unless I interact with 
the text directly.  that is, I interact with the HTMl content and I can 
move from message to message, I have enough vision to see the VO cursor 
 surround the various text.  but, upon seeing the VO cursor  surround the 
subject line, I have to interact a second time to hear VO read it.  This is 
very inefficient.  Again, ideas?

I'm now writing with VO turned off.  So i hope this isn't a mess.  


thoughts?

Kevin

Re: Safari default home page has changed.

2013-11-21 Thread Ray Foret Jr
With respect to the top sites issue, Might I suggest that you go to 
Preferences/General in Safari and in the “new window opens with” pop up button 
menu, you choose the home page option?

Did you try that?  With respect to your e-mail issue, can’t help there.
