closing apps in the background

I apologize about re-asking this question but how does one close programs in 
the background.  What had happened was that I had the mail view in the wrong 
viewing mode.

There is a little utility that is available called no sleep that will add some 
kernel extensions that allow the Macs to operate without a monitor.

Amazon Cloud Reader With VO?

2014-01-27 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all,

Has anybody tried Amazon cloud Reader on the web for reading books on the 
computer? I’ve tried it, but VO seems to pause after each word. Has anyone been 
able to optimize the settings so that Cloud Reader works a bit better with VO?

thanks,
Teresa

Hello,
If anyone out there is running linux on vmwaare, what are you using for the 
orca key.  If I plug in a usb keyboard I can use the insert key on the numpad.  
So my question is what do you do if you only have an apple wireless keyboard?

Re: closing apps in the background

2014-01-27 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

As previously posted, here you go….

you can close apps from the Dock.  Press VO-d to bring VO focus to the Dock, 
navigate right or left and listen to what VO announces.  It will tell you if an 
app is open by announcing “Open” after announcing the app name.  If you wish to 
Close/Quit that app, press VO-shift-m to bring up the Contextual menu then the 
letter “q” to take you to the Quit option.  Press return and, if nothing needs 
saved, the app will quit.  one thing to note, closing a window on a Mac simply 
closes the window, it does not quit or close the app.  There are a few 
exceptions to this as in System Preferences but this is the rule for the most 
part.  If you wish to quit the app while in it, simply press cmd-q and it’s 
done, unless a document needs attention.

Later…

couple of questions about Time Machine and changing the clocks and weather

2014-01-27 Thread Scott Berry
Hello there,

I was looking at the time, weather and date widget.  I was wondering:

1.  How do you change the time and weather and your world clocks?

I also want to start Time Machine so I have backups to go back to if needed.

1.  How do I set up a drive that is NTFS to a drive for Mac only?  Also I have 
some Documents and such I need to back up before switching over, how do I do 
this?

2.  How do I begin the set up process with Time Machine?

Re: Mail's Preview Pane Must Go

2014-01-27 Thread Alex Hall
In theory, it stops mail from being marked as "read" when you arrow over it. In 
practice, though, I went from 20 unread (the accurate count) to 1 unread, 
despite having read none of those 20 messages. So clearly, something else is 
happening that is messing with my unread badge.

Re: how to convert unprotected epubs/other ebook formats to txt?

2014-01-27 Thread Georgina Joyce
Hello,

I haven’t seen any reply. So I thought I would suggest an option that is not 
satisfactory in accessibility because you need sighted support to install. But 
after that, you’ll be able to convert from a terminal. Calibre needs to be 
installed and the command line tools need installing. After that a simple 
command line command will convert your books.

I'm not sure about adding, but in both the Weather and World Clock widgets, 
there are two "info" buttons. I had more luck with the first one, as sometimes 
the second one failed to do anything. Anyway, click the info button and you can 
set locations.

Copy your files first. The process of making a drive into a new file system 
will completely wipe that drive, so anything you don't copy off will be gone 
forever. Once you're sure you have rescued your data, open up Disk Utility, 
select the drive from the table, go to the Erase tab, and click erase after 
specifying the options you want in the text boxes and popup menus.
> 
> 2.  How do I begin the set up process with Time Machine?
Open System Preferences > Time machine, and turn it on. Go to Settings and 
choose your drive, if you are not prompted for a drive automatically, and 
configure any other settings you want. It's quite easy once you do it.

Re: using templates in pages?

2014-01-27 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Justin,

To be able to enter text and navigate within a text box containing placeholder 
text in a template, interact twice with the object until it says “Edit text”, 
then press Return followed by Cmd-z. It will then be possible to navigate using 
only the arrow keys.

I know it sounds strange, but it works and you don’t find yourself moving the 
object rather than editing it.

Never use Quick Nav in Pages.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: couple of questions about Time Machine and changing the clocks and weather

2014-01-27 Thread Brian Fischler
Hey Alex,

How is your system running a day in to your clean install? My computer this 
morning has gotten back to being unusable as every single program is busy busy 
and the choppiness is ridiculous. Even restarting has done nothing. Do you use 
gmail as I am convinced that my gmail account is causing the issue as the damn 
all mail folder has 97000 messages and I am pretty sure something is still not 
working with gmail and mac mail causing the sluggishness. My concern about 
taking the time to do a clean install is even after the 97000 messages in the 
gmail all mail folder are still going to be there so if in deed gmail is 
causing the problem a clean install will not do anything. Not sure how Apple 
claims they have fixed the gmail problem but I am magically still having it 
just lucky. How many messages are in your all mail folder and if it is a lot 
how is mac mail running after the clean install? Another thing I notice is 
iTunes has a mind of its own as I close it a lot as I know it takes a ton of 
resources but on restart is automatically opens itself so iTunes always wants 
to be open not sure why this is. Thanks

Re: using templates in pages?

2014-01-27 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Justin,

You have to follow these steps for each object, but not for all the placeholder 
text within that object. However, if you leave the object to work on another 
one, you have to repeat the same steps. You won’t lose anything you’ve entered 
and jumping to the formatter is not a problem.

Cheers,

Anne

Overwhelmed with mail

2014-01-27 Thread regina alvarado
OK, thought I understood mail. When I ;enter the messages and all load I open 
the conversation with right arrow. Then I down arrow and find the first in the 
conversation. Then I hit VO-J to read text of email. I VO-J to go back to the 
list and delete the email I just read. Then I start the process again. If after 
reading a number of emails and hitting CMD-Q and then going back into messages, 
all the email I just deleted comes back. I am completely inundated. Am I doing 
email correctly? How do I keep email from coming back? Are there any settings I 
should absolutely make to make it easier to do mail? I have gmail in IMAP. It 
reads fine. Do I have to do something in Gmail because it is a new machine? 
Just a little frustrated in FL as I thought I knew what I was doing but 
obviously not!

A very frustrating discovery regarding playing movies downloaded from iTunes

2014-01-27 Thread Christine Grassman
Hello all. In the past, I have been able to connect my MacBook to a projector 
and play any movies in my iTunes library.  However, (and it has been months 
since I did this), today it did not work. The movie would play on the computer 
itself, but as soon as the projector was connected, it would stop. (The 
projector is not broken; it plays when connected to other devices.)

I had two tech-savvy individuals try to get it to play, using mirroring,  VLC, 
and connecting to an Apple TV in our building's media lab.  However, I am told 
that:
1. Because of the Motion PIcture Association of America, Apple has placed new 
restrictions on movies downloaded from the iTunes store, and it is no longer 
possible to connect them to a projector and play them easily. (This makes no 
sense, since from what I understand from others, movies bought through Google, 
Amazon, Hulu, etc., play just fine when connected to a projector.) 
 
2. The Apple TV must be one that I myself can log onto; essentially, I cannot 
use any but my own Apple TV to play my movies. 
3. My only other option is to get an Apple projector.
Is this all accurate? Is there a workaround? 
Christine

Re: Mac Minis needing monitors: another thing to add to the pile

2014-01-27 Thread Chris Blouch
While I could never find official confirmation, it seemed like many Mac 
Minis would bog down endlessly scanning for what kind of monitor there 
was when there wasn't one plugged in. Having a monitor connected but 
turned off was sufficient to work around the bug and, of course, this 
bug does not exist on Macs with screens built in. It seemed to be some 
weird hardware thing as no amount of patching and fiddling seemed to 
resolve the issue. For me I got a cheap VGA to NTSC converted connected 
which made my mini happy and let me hook it to a TV to be the family 
media center. Hopefully the newer Minis no longer have this flaw but I 
haven't heard definitively one way or the other.

Re: A very frustrating discovery regarding playing movies downloaded from iTunes

2014-01-27 Thread Ray Foret Jr
I’d plug in and then try to play your movie.  I have found, at times, that if I 
make the mistake of trying to switch inputs on my AV receiver while playing an 
ITunes movie I bought, I sometimes get a warnning that the movie cannot be 
played on the device.  So, I exit out of the attempt to play the movie and 
start it up and it plays fine.  The trick is to make sure not to switch inputs 
while playing an ITunes bought or rented movie.

Hilarious contextual menu in iTunes back to not working

2014-01-27 Thread Brian Fischler
So after two hours of not being able to use my iMac because of busy busy issues 
and the VO choppiness it finally stops which I assume means the gmail all mail 
folder finished loading, and I go to use iTunes and once again the contextual 
menu doesn’t work. It is so strange as the contextual menu in mail works just 
fine, but doesn’t in iTunes making it impossible to add anything to a playlist. 
I have quit iTunes, but don’t want to restart my computer yet again as at least 
I can use it again without everything being busy busy and choppy. Alex, let us 
know how your computer is still working after the clean install, as I am 
thinking a clean install is my only option. Ugh.

Re: Mail's Preview Pane Must Go

2014-01-27 Thread Daniel Hawkins
Ahh I understand, yeah I get that sometimes too!

I usually read my messages by date first. then if there are any unread I have 
not gotten yet, then I change the listing to unread and read the rest that way. 
So it may not get it in order all the time but that how I get them all read.

   Disk Utility is in your applications folder in the Utilities subfolder.  You 
can also use command-shift-u in the Finder to directly open the Utilities

Re: couple of questions about Time Machine and changing the clocks and weather

2014-01-27 Thread Alex Hall
The easiest way to find and launch apps on the Mac is Spotlight. Just 
cmd-space, start typing disk utility, and after a few letters you'll hear "top 
hit, Disk utility". Press enter and it opens up. I launch everything this way - 
my desktop is empty, my dock nearly so. It doesn't work for everyone, of 
course, but it is a great way to find a newly downloaded app or find one whose 
location you don't know.

Re: mac gourmet help.

2014-01-27 Thread Eileens Misrahi
HI All,

I hope others will help me out if my memory is not perfect. When all of the Mac 
Gourmet apps were on sale, there was a discussion that a newer version was 
about to be release for the phone and Mac. I believe in older versions of Mac 
Gourmet there was a problem in syncing between the phone and Mac. Esther 
suggested to contact the developers to get a license key for the new update 
from the web site. The developers were very accommodating and prompt. I 
received instructions on how to delete my version of Mac Gourmet Deluxe from my 
Air and install the new version. If my recollection is not correct, I hope 
others will chime in on this. So, you may not be doing anything wrong, but it 
may be a software incompatibility issue between the 2 apps. HTH.

Best,
Eileen

and connecting to an Apple TV in our building's media lab.  However, I am told 
that:
1. Because of the Motion PIcture Association of America, Apple has placed new 
restrictions on movies downloaded from the iTunes store, and it is no longer 
possible to connect them to a projector and play them easily. (This makes no 
sense, since from what I understand from others, movies bought through Google, 
Amazon, Hulu, etc., play just fine when connected to a projector.)
  
2. The Apple TV must be one that I myself can log onto; essentially, I cannot use any but my own Apple TV to play my movies.

3. My only other option is to get an Apple projector.
Is this all accurate? Is there a workaround?

Re: Mac Minis needing monitors: another thing to add to the pile

Nice. I had hunted endlessly for what used to be called a "VGA 
Terminator" and everyplace that listed it was out of stock or crazy 
priced. Your Amazon link seems to be the HDMI equivalent for just $15. 
If you want to do the NTSC thing, that box is still sold for $24 here:

http://sewelldirect.com/pc-to-tv-adapter.asp
which takes VGA in and puts out NTSC or PAL.

Frustrating accessibility day

2014-01-27 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi guys
Well, because I found out that the braille tax information on the IRS website 
was still for 2012, I decided I'd try it again to electronic file. I did 
taxact.com again. I thought it was bad last year, but in my opinion, is worse 
this year. Yes, I got quite a lot of information in there, but took me for ever 
to do it. I got lost several times, crashed Safari several times, even the 
iPhone didn't work very well this year. I had trouble all around, but I've 
really got in trouble when I tried to edit and expense. I left out one 
accidentally, and I was trying to put it in there. I got so lost I didn't know 
where I was lost from. It's not Safari either, it's that stupid website.

What royally Hacks me is that when I called their customer support number, I 
was told I would have to pay first before they could talk to me. She did give 
me an email address, so I wrote them and had a few things to say. We will see 
if they get back with me or not. Oh yes, she told me I could do a survey. I 
told her if the survey was an accessible what good was that going to do me.

Boy you can really avoid these accessibility issues if you make everything and 
accessible for reporting problems and telling people they to pay first to 
complain.

Sincerely,

Gigi

Taxact was bad last year? I did it last year and the only major problem I had 
was the captcha at the end. That crash of safari as I remember maybe had to do 
with some dialog that might show up in your window chooser but I am afraid I 
don't remember. I did it on the Mac not the iPhone. But I haven't tried it yet 
this year so thanks for the heads-up! Will report when I try it; am still 
waiting for some info.

Oh yes, also if i remember correctly, I finally called the IRS helpdesk about

Re: Frustrating accessibility day

2014-01-27 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi Cheryl 
I thought I had my act together, and went into it thinking I would have no 
trouble because I had all my 1099's etc. I actually got pretty far, but made a 
mistake and went too far on one of my expenses. Filing a Schedule C is a lot of 
fun with screen reader on this thing if you make a mistake. I didn't even try 
JAWS this year; I figured it wouldn't help anyway. Besides, the only Windows 
computer I have access to is under Vista, with an earlier version of Jaws, so I 
figure it won't help with my frustration.

Gigi

Re: A very frustrating discovery regarding playing movies downloaded from iTunes

2014-01-27 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I’ve seen this with HD movies purchased from iTunes.  There are threads on the 
Internet talking about it that I browsed sometime during last Fall.  
Supposedly, if you view the SD version instead of the HD version,, iTunes will 
allow many of the projectors to show the content.  All Movie/TV purchases 
downloaded from iTunes also include the SD (Standard Definition) version along 
with the HD version.  To access the SD version, navigate to the Movie or TV 
show, press VO-shift-m to bring up the Contextual menu and go to the Video 
Quality item.  Select SD from there and see if it works.  Not promising 
anything, just recall reading this somewhere.

Later…

Re: Overwhelmed with mail

2014-01-27 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I’m wondering if the checkbox for “Include Related Messages” is checked for 
you.  If it is, even messages you’ve deleted appear in the conversation since 
Mail believes them to be related.  To disable this feature, go into Mail, press 
cmd-comma to open the Mail Preferences, Interact with the Toolbar and then 
VO-space on the Viewing tab.  Stop Interacting with the Toolbar, locate the 
checkbox that says something like “Include Related Messages” and uncheck it.  
Hopefully, that reduces your frustration.  I recall having that same issue a 
long time ago when that feature was added by default, I didn’t like it then and 
still would not prefer it be the default.

HTH.

Later…

Re: Frustrating accessibility day

2014-01-27 Thread Eugenia Firth
Ok Justin, I downloaded Turbo Tax myself since it was free anyway. I did find 
out you have to turn VoiceOver off and then back on again to get the toolbar. I 
have no idea why, but so far it has worked. so I will continue on here and let 
y'all know how I get on with this little project. It's a good thing I retired 
from doing tax customer service so I will know if I have skipped anything. I 
could wait for the braille copies, and I might end up doing that. However, I am 
going to owe some money this year, so I want to get a head start so I will know 
how much estimated tax I have to pay for 2014.

Gigi

Replying to iMessages from Notification Center?

Hi all,
One feature in Mavericks is supposed to be that you can reply to iMessages 
right in the Notification Center. Well, I was in there and hit enter on an 
iMessage, and it opened the messages app. Is there a trick to getting it to 
just pop up a reply window, or is this not accessible? Thanks.

Mac Gourmet to see if they could receive a license for the most current

Hi, even though it does take you to messages, it puts you in the correct 
conversation so you can type a reply and hit return. I find this so easy that I 
re-configured all the keyboard settings so that f11 now opens notification 
center for me. I know that's not a direct answer, but it's so simple.

Cheers

VMWare can remap one of the keys to produce an insert key. I imagine that's the

No -- just a cable between the MacBook and the projector, which has always

Same projector, same MacBook, same cable. (Though we did try a different cable,

Re: Frustrating accessibility day

2014-01-27 Thread Eugenia Firth
Hi Justin and anybody else who wants to know 
I think you said you downloaded Turbo Tax from the app store. So did I, and I 
would like to share my comments in the hope it will save you grief. Since I 
have met you once, I know for a fact that you are a better Mac user than I am, 
but I think I would have had a lot more trouble with this program if I had not 
had tax law experience in customer service. This let me determine whether I had 
made correct choices, and it helped to guess with pretty good accuracy quite a 
few of the choices. For instance, when it gets around to asking you if you're 
married, I guessed the second button which is line 2 on the 1040. That turned 
out to be right. If you guess wrong, which you probably will many times, you 
have to go back and make another choice. It is better than getting lost in Tax 
Act's web site because at least I don't have Safari crashing. 

Having said that, there is hope for this program, especially if someone would 
work with it to cut down on the guessing as to whether you are on the correct 
button or checkbox. 

However, there is a serious problem if you do what I did. I lost VoiceOver when 
I pressed command s, and the same problem did not occur when I quit the program 
without saving and it gave me the chance to save. When I say I lost Voice,over, 
it was worse than that. I had to shut down my computer, and it saved the file, 
sort of, and labeled it as an unsaved Turbo Tax file, and I couldn't find the 
thing. This is too bad, too, because I had got just about everything done, got 
my self-employment and expenses done and everything. I ended up with several of 
these files and I can't tell which one is the last one that has all the good 
stuff in it. However, I don't think it will let me recover the files because I 
never got around to entering the required stuff that I never guessed I'd have 
to put in. 

I also discovered when I quit the program, that the computer showed me all the 
stuff I had to put in such as a required password and security questions. If I 
got asked those the first times I tried to save, I didn't know about it because 
VoiceOver got killed. I think now that I have figured out what I'm doing with 
it, I might go ahead and retype my information. 

Regards, 
Gigi, who hopes she doesn't go through this every year 
PS. It sure is disgusting when a program says things are going to be simple, 
and of course they're not for us.

 Hi guys
 Well, because I found out that the braille tax information on the IRS 
 website was still for 2012, I decided I'd try it again to electronic file. 
 I did taxact.com again. I thought it was bad last year, but in my opinion, 
 is worse this year. Yes, I got quite a lot of information in there, but 
 took me for ever to do it. I got lost several times, crashed Safari 
 several times, even the iPhone didn't work very well this year. I had 
 trouble all around, but I've really got in trouble when I tried to edit 
 and expense. I left out one accidentally, and I was trying to put it in 
 there. I got so lost I didn't know where I was lost from. It's not Safari 
 either, it's that stupid website.
 
 What royally Hacks me is that when I called their customer support number,
