Text edit
Hi, Can somebody please remind me how to deal with Text Edit under Mavericks? When I open a 14 page file, I can’t seem to move character by character which I can do if I open a new file. In the 14 page file, I also can’t easily move around. I’ve tried the window rap and page rap but there’s no difference. Command left and right arrow don’t move to the beginning and end of lines, for example. Any hints very welcome.

Re: Teamspeak3 accessibility
the stable version of teamspeak works as well as team talk. That is, everything is accessible except the chat and channel tree. There is, however, a teamspeak 3 beta you can update to (instructions on their forums), which uses QT 5. This makes the channel tree accessible.

Re: Text edit
Hi Lisette, if I understoud correctly you've already tried pressing CMD + Shift + w. So did you reset VO by pressing CMD + F5 four times. I just have this behaviour sometimes in Pages but not in Textedit. What I do then is dragging the mouse cursor to the VO cursor and performing a mouse click.

Flip4Mac lets you play some Windows proprietary formats as long as they aren't encumbered with DRM. Sounds like you need to install the WindowsMedia plugins to make it work.

For now at least, removing Soundflower seems to have done it. Apps are still slow to open but not as bad as before, and emails rarely delay when I open them now. I have also noticed only one instance of Voiceover stuttering, and that was right after booting up. Hopefully this fix will make a clean install unnecessary.

Re: new mac user
1. VO should turn on when you first turn on your Mac. IF, by some strange chance it does not, press Cmd+F5. Know where your command key is? It’s the one directly next to the space bar at either side. Your Option key is the one directly next to the command key. How to ensure Voice Over stays on? Just don’t turn it off. How to get help? IF you press VO+k, this turns on Keyboard help. Press escape to turn it off. What I mean by VO is the key combination of control+Option together. So, if for example, I tell you to press VO+up arrow, I mean for you to press control+Option+up arrow all together. Here’s another tip. You will be offered the option of starting an interactive tutorial when Voice OVer starts up for the first time. go ahead and let this happen. In this mode, you will be activly guided through the basics. With respect to the broadcast program, I’d get the basics down first. Give yourself a good two or three weeks for this.

Re: Text edit
Hi Daniel, Normally in Text Edit, I can interact with the text and then move my arrow keys character by character. I can’t do this on larger files for some reason, but I can on smaller ones.

Re: new mac user
To add what Ray has said. Once you’ve setup your Mac the way you like it. It maybe a good idea to check the checkbox found in system preferences, Users and Groups, now your in a table. Arrow down to Login options group and here is where you’ll find the check box which is called, “use Voiceover in the login window.” Note: if Voiceover says dimd afterwards then in this case you will need to keep arrowing right with the VO keys until you here “Click the lock to make changes.” Either a button or a check box choose which ever you want a screen will then pop up asking you to aufenticate in other words type in your password if you do decide to create one once you have setup your Mac. After you’ve done this, that previous Voiceover check box should then be un-dimd so that you can now go ahead and check it. If you forget all this, then no problem just email us again and I’m sure someone here will tell you how to do this again. The reason why you would want to check this box is for example software updates. Say you was installing a software update for your Mac and it required you to re-start then by having this check box checked it will automatically turn on Voiceover if it re-starts and is installing the new files and the like for the new software update in progress. Of course, you could use the Command F5 command to turn on Voiceover but having this check box checked should hopefully make your life a lot easier. I hope this tip so to speak has helped you and welcome to the list! :) Thanks Daniel On 16 Jan 2014, at 18:34, Ray Foret Jr wrote: > 1. VO should turn on when you first turn on your Mac.

Re: new mac user
Command-f5 will turn Voiceover on and off, and once it is on it will remain on until you turn it off, even after a restart. On a standard Apple keyboard, the command key is immediately to the left or right of the spacebar. You may need to press function with that keystroke, which is the bottom left key. If you are interested in programming, Macs come with Python pre-installed, so you can use that language, or you can look into using Xcode to write Objective-c or C++ applications. The mv...@googlegroups.com email list is a good place to ask Xcode questions. Keystrokes are all over the internet, but Apple has a couple lists on their website, as does www.applevis.com.

Re: using find in textEdit
I find it easiest to interact with the text and then use vo's find, vo-f, instead.

step by step, please and a recommendation on whether need to buy monitor
Here I am again asking same question as last night, but I need a step-by-step of how to fix so I can lower speech and TV separately. would I be better to get a monitor so there was no sound coming through it? If that is not important which would cost me a lot for something I will never use, where do I attach speakers so they will work independently. We ar struggling to find anything but a speaker that is bluetooth, and no matter what I do to pair, it will not with speaker and in the meantime my bluetooth keyboard is unpaired. I don't think Mini can take more than one bluetooth device? Anyway, cannot do anything learning on my Mini because only control I have is volume on TV remote. Any help is more than deeply appreciated. reggie and Allegra -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: step by step, please and a recommendation on whether need to buy monitor
The Mini can definitely handle multiple bluetooth devices with no problem. Wired speakers are everywhere, though - go to Best Buy or a similar store, or hop on amazon and search for stereo computer speakers. My sister recently got a set of speakers for $40 that sound great and have a very nice sub. Open System Preferences and click Sound (if using VO, interact with the scroll area, type sound until VO says "sound", and vow-space). Select the output tab, and choose the option you want from the table. You can also lower the volume in this window, and choose to have a volume control shown on the status menu bar (vo-m-m). If you only want VO to go to a different sound device, open Voiceover utility with vo-f8, chosse sound from the categories table, and choose the sound device you want from the popup menu.

Re: Resetting Prams
The Mac Mini is a desktop, so the same procedure should hold.

Re: "where to go from here? macv
The sound output in System Preferences is the "master". All output goes through there, from Voiceover to iTunes to Youtube. Voiceover's sound output setting is Voiceover's alone. If you set the Mini to use the HDMI output for sound, then set Voiceover to use headphones, vo will speak through any speakers attached to your headphone jack and not through the system default (which would be the HDMI).

Re: "where to go from here? macv
You've got it. Just be sure VO is set to headphones, or whatever output you want, and not "default" as that will go through whatever the Mac's output is.

Re: PDF Pen
HI Gigi, I was using PDFPen. I downloaded the trial version of PDFPen Pro, and at first it seemed to be exactly the same. VoiceOver could see the text areas, but I couldn't seem to type text into them. Then I noticed that although VoiceOver wasn't reading the text I typed, it appeared to be showing on screen. I could bring the mouse pointer, and although VoiceOver wouldn't announce any typed text under the mouse pointer, if I do a control click with the TrackPad it offers to look up the word I typed or offers spelling suggestions if I typed gibberish. So seems I can type, but the typed text is invisible to VoiceOver. Also, when I am focussed on the text areas, VoiceOver announces keyboard focus to be on "empty scroll area". I might email you the form off list and see if we can get anywhere. Just thought I'd send this on the list in case anyone else becomes interested in this issue.

Re: Resetting Prams
For my iMac Apple Care told me to turn it off, unplug all the cables (AC Power cable, keyboard, USB cables etcetera) from the computer and leave it for a minute before plugging it all back in and turning it on again. This fixed some strange issues I was having (can't now remember what they were) but I was really surprised that something so simple could fix such strange behaviour.

I have Refit installed, so will this work for me or do I need to boot into Mac and then hold down the keys? Also, what exactly are the advantages of doing this? I've heard a lot about it, but am not sure why one might actually need to do it.
