Re: Still Some Pretty Severe Bugs in Mavericks
You know I haven't seen either of these bugs. I have however, seen where mail doesn't always get rid of deleted mail.

Re: Still Some Pretty Severe Bugs in Mavericks
I haven't seen that one; are you using Gmail? I have both Gmail and iCloud, but I'm slowly switching over to iCloud. By the way, you can just press delete, no need to use the command key as well.

bad files in mobile documents iCloud?
Okay, Last night, I posted about not being able to open some documents I had saved in iCloud. John asked me if there was any error message when I tried to open them in Text edit, and, I indicated there was not. So, I went in to ~/Library/MobileDocuments/ComappleTextEdit/Documents where my iCloud documents are stored and found i not only could not open them from there, I can't get rid of them either. When I try to put them in the trash, I get this: "text Items can't be copied to "Trash" because you don't have permission to read them.". Any ideas what to do next? PS. I was able to get at the information I needed via other means, but, if this is how reliable Apple's iCloud service is with critically important documents, I'm really not as sure about it as I once was.

Re: bad files in mobile documents iCloud?
You can run a permissions check from the recovery system or use, reset password from Terminal in the Recovery system and reset your own user permissions.

Re: my internet solution
Hi, The solution outlined here actually is either found in the 10.9.2 update or a hardware test done by a certified Apple Technician and possible replacement of the lid of the MBA. So, other than seeing if the 10.9.2 update fixes your issue, the next fix, at least according to this 135 page thread is to take your MBA into your local Apple Service Centre and having them do an antenna test. I also noted that one user had no issues as long as they used the Apple Airport wireless access points. Sorry, not much help for you here. Later...

Re: bad files in mobile documents iCloud?
From the recovery partition with command-r during startup, choose, Terminal, from the Utilities window. Then, type, resetpassword and you will find a button for resetting your permissions. If you changed your Apple ID, though, this might have something to do with your inability to access some documents. Take Care John D.

Dragon Dictate VS Mac built-in Dictation and Speech Navigation
Hello All, Dragon is launching a new dictate software for Mac. There is an introductory price of US $99.99. My question for the list is: With the ability dictate and navigate the Mac via speech, what would be the avantages in investing in Dragon? One feature that caught my attention was the ability to transcribe an single voice audio to script. I have used Dragon Naturally Speaking on the PC side and have been able to work it with JAWS without J-Say. Also, has anyone used Dragon with VO running in the bacground for support? Thanks for any input on this subject. Oh by the way, if anyone is interested, the promotion goes until 3/31.

Fusion, mapping an insert key on laptop keyboard
Currently I'm using sharpkeys to remap the grave accent key on my MBA to the caps lock key and vice versa, for use as a jaws modifier key in windows7. I want to eliminate sharp keys and have fusion map grave accent to the insert key. I've done this before but forgot the procedure. I think its: 1) in fusions keyboard and mouse settings, edit the profile and "add" a key mapping. 2) this brings up a window where there is a series of checkboxes for certain modifier keys, and a combo box where you can type a key. 3) in the "from" combo box, I type "`" (grave accent), and in the "to" combo box I press the insert key on an attached full-sized USB keyboard. this puts "extended numpad insert key" in the combo box. 4) Press okay and make sure key remaps are enabled. What are others doing to get an insert key (or a caps lock key) passed to windows7 vm's? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Dragon Dictate VS Mac built-in Dictation and Speech Navigation
Hi there I have not used Dragon, but my first reaction to this is that the dictation on the Mac is good enough that I would want a lot of benefit more before I would want to spend $99 for it. I find the one that already comes with Mavericks to be pretty accurate. Do they let you have a trial first?

Re: Dragon Dictate VS Mac built-in Dictation and Speech Navigation
Interesting, I believe the ScanSoft speech recognition is the basis for both speech recognition systems. Given that Mac Dictate can now be loaded directly on the Mac for continuous speech recognition, Dragon would most likely only be beneficial if one needed to use more granulated Command and Control rather than just speech dictation recognition. That said, I have no idea how well Dragon will be integrated with VoiceOver.

Virtual machine help
Hi, I'm having some problems using JAWS in a virtual machine and wondering if anyone can help. I'm using JAWS 14 on Windows 7 via VMware. I usually use an external keyboard with my MacBook because I'm one handed. I normally use the desktop keyboard layout for JAWS but am without an external keyboard now. I'm wondering how people manage on the Mac keyboard with JAWS. My understanding is that JAWS should be able to use the caps lock as the JAWS key but I can't get this to work. I chose laptop layout from the keyboard layout in basic settings but whenever I press caps lock Voiceover just says caps lock on or off and JAWS acts if I'm not pressing the JAWS key e.g. if I press caps lock and t for title, JAWS just says t. It's as if the caps lock key isn't being passed through to Windows. But this is strange because it works properly when I use NVDA instead of JAWS. Can anyone help? Am I missing something? Any ideas why JAWS/Windows isn't picking up the caps lock? Any other way round it?

Re: Problem Inserting Formulas in Numbers in Mavericks
I think that the trainers are just over complicating the issue as they're not used to doing things the VoiceOver way. To insert a formula in Numbers you don't need to click on anything, insert anything from a toolbar or menu or jump to or interact with the formula scroll area. All you need to do is navigate to the cell, press the enter key and then type the formula. You may find the formulas and functions help page, accessible from the help menu, useful in this regard to learn the various formulas and functions. If you start using functions, one tip is that after you start typing one or more characters, Numbers offers you suggestions. You can just use the left and right arrow keys (with QuickNav turned off) to navigate between the suggestions. Press return to choose a suggestion. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

drag and drop is driving me out of my damn mind!!!
Okay, I have made a playlist of tracks which I want in a certain order. This is in ITunes. I made the playlist and then pressed the edit playlist button. Then, I made sure that sort by manual order is selected. Now, the first two drags seemed to go okay. But, after that, no matter how many times I select a file, no matter whether I use the VO+, and VO+period or else the VO+shift+cmd+space method, the blasted files will not move. Yes, I am interaccting with the table where the files are. I thought maybe I could press down on my track pad and drag that way but no joy. My track pad commander is off as I don't use it. Is drag and drop truly not possible with Voice Over? How otherwise can I get the tracks in proper order for the script to number them?

Re: Capitalone 360 app
Ok, this is how I have found to make it work. When you have the screen up with the from and to buttons, do the to button first. The issues with both is as soon as you flick up on the ticker, the screen refreshes and so you have to flick right again to the ticker, and do this until you get to the account you want to transfer to. Then go back and tap on the from button, and it will behave the same way the to button just did. If you click the from button first it will never work.

Re: Fusion, mapping an insert key on laptop keyboard
You can do the key remapping in Fusion's settings. You remap insert to a key of your shoice, then remap that same key to insert, and you have a wroking insert key on whatever key you put it on. I found with anything that remaps the caps lock key, you lose caps lock completely so can never use it when you want it, so that isn't really the best solution.

Re: drag and drop is driving me out of my damn mind!!!
Thing is, I am trying to prepare files for the numbering script and what I need to do, for example, is to move a file from close to the bottom of the list of files to the third position or so.

Re: bad files in mobile documents iCloud?
Hi, I would agree that it is likely a Apple ID change that is causing this issue. If you changed your Apple ID, then the documents within the Mobile Documents folder do not belong to the new Apple ID, thus you do not have permission to open them. I don't believe that this is any way a measure of the reliability of Apple's iCloud service. You might be able to get around this by copying the Documents folder from the com~apple~TextEdit folder in your Mobile Documents folder onto your Desktop, then doing a Get Info on the folder. Once the Info window is open, navigate to the Sharing & Permissions section and then in the Actions pop-up menu, apply the permissions to all enclosed items. You'll likely need to unlock the lock first but after this, the permissions of the items in that folder should now belong to you. HTH. Later...

Re: Dragon Dictate VS Mac built-in Dictation and Speech Navigation
Dragon for Mac v3.x is inaccessible, even the company admits to that. I haven't tested out v4 yet. Still, if it lacks things like voice commands to move around and edit text, or move up and down menus and tables, I don't see the point. For straight dictation, the Mac does well. That said, Dragon learns as you correct it, whereas the mac does not, and Dragon is (from reviews I've read) more accurate even out of the box, with no training. If you have problems with the keyboard, look at Dragon, but be sure to test if for accessibility and the features you will need. If you need basic dictation and will not be dictating exclusively, I'd save my money. Those are just my thoughts.

Re: Dragon Dictate VS Mac built-in Dictation and Speech Navigation
Good evening, before we start characterizing software good, or bad. I think we need to stop and try and think of who might be reading this. Most people it is true don't need dictation but some of us were actually have verified written expression disorders and other disabling conditions that require the use of dragon would be helpful to make certain that we keep those people than mine. Personally I do use Dragon because of the above-mentioned written expression disorder. I've only used version three until five have had no real problems with voiceover. But I also use a braille wdisplay separate from my normal computing experience. I know that there is some concern about being able to use the product by telling it what to do as far as screen motion I think though that you run the risk of entangling with VoiceOver and that could lead to some headaches. When I get the chance I will actually use version four and will see how good or bad it is with VoiceOver. The concerns that Dragon is inaccessible are not true. I have not had any problems using it after making a few modifications they are minor. The biggest thing one needs to remember is one should use the headset and keep voiceover and Dragon separate as far as Sincerely, Maurice Mines. Student accessibility aid.
