Re: vmware fusion vo question

What I do is always use the Virtual Machine in full screen mode -control 
command and enter. If I want to return to the Mac all I have to do is 
press control command enter again and then command tab will take me away 
from the Fusion Window.

Hi, I tried both to format and partition my flash-drive and cmd up with the 
error in both cases that it can't write to the last block of the drive. I 
wonder if it's corrupted or something; Darn, I was hoping I could fix it 
somehow. ah well, thanks anyhow; let me know if you have any more

The new iMovie V10.x

2014-06-20 Thread Phil Halton
Is anyone working successfully with the new version of iMovie that came with 
Mavericks? I'm pretty good with the old iMovie (Mountain Lion), but I just 
spent a good hour with the new version and I don't really get it.
Any help in getting to grips with this app?

Keyboard Commander and entering Text on a Web Page

2014-06-20 Thread 'David Goldfield' via MacVisionaries
I think I know the answer to this question but I'd like to ask in case 
I'm wrong. 
First, I love the flexibility of Keyboard commander.  However, I noticed 
that, when I use my iPhone, the commander seems to automatically turn 
off when you're in a text box or edit field, which I think is very smart 
and a nice touch.  Is there a method for having this done in the Mac?  I 
mean, it's not going to kill me to press left arrow/right arrow to turn 
it off while in text fields but I'd like the capability to have it turn 
off when text needs to be written and to have it turn back on when you 
leave an edit field on a Web page.  Does this make sense?
Alternatively, is there an option, script or third party program which 
forces the commander to disable single letter navigation keys while in 
edit fields?

Are there third-Party Scripts or Apps to Modify voiceover

2014-06-20 Thread 'David Goldfield' via MacVisionaries
I guess my subject states my question.  As you know, many users have 
written their own scripts, apps or add-ons for all of the major windows 
screen readers.  Has anyone done this for VO on the Mac and are there 
Web sites I can visit to see what's out there?

Re: new version of skype

2014-06-20 Thread Mark Baxter
I have the newest Skype running on an iPad 2 under IOS 7.1.1.  I find it 
simple, easy to use and a lot less cluttered than the last few versions.  I can 
even use the keypad now and don't seem to have any problems with voicemail not 
playing.  The Main Menu is easy to navigate, and ... Yeah.  Get it.

recommendations for headset with i-Phone 5

2014-06-20 Thread Jenine Stanley
I have to use my i-Phone 5 for work interviews and sometimes when using the 
earphones from Apple, people have trouble hearing and understanding me. I'd 
like to get a better headset, though not much I can do about the phone quality. 
Too bad I can't do all the calls as Face time audio. :) 

I'm not wanting a bluetooth headset due to the slight delay factor. I have a 
pair of Aftershokz and love them but not for conversation. 

I'd like any recommendations on a wired headset with mic for the i-Phone. 

Thanks.

Re: Keyboard Commander and entering Text on a Web Page

2014-06-20 Thread 'David Goldfield' via MacVisionaries

Sure, no problem.
On my Mac, I have single letter navigation keys enabled, allowing me to 
do things like pressing the letter H to move to the next heading on a 
Web page, B to move to the next button, etc.  this works well, except 
when I'm in edit boxes where I would have to enter a user ID, password, 
etc.  In those edit fields, I need to turn Keyboard Commander off in 
order to enter the text; otherwise, my text will be interpreted as a 
navigation command.  I'd like to know if there is a way to have the 
single letter navigation keys interpreted as text when I'm in an edit 
field without the need to turn the commander off when I'm typing and on 
while I'm browsing. This feature does seem to work on the iPhone and I'm 
wondering if a similar option is available for the Mac.

Re: Keyboard Commander and entering Text on a Web Page

2014-06-20 Thread David Taylor
Hi,

You simply interact with the text or turn quick nav off. This is nothing to do 
with keyboard commander, which is what caused the confusion. If you have your 
tab key set to auto-interact, then when you tab into a field you can just type 
without doing anything, and for secure edit fields, it does turn it off 
automatically for you. I think extending this ability to normal edit fields 
would be a good accessibility suggestion, as long as it's an option as you 
often want to navigate through a field without it turning off. Given that 
interacting with quick nav is merely pressing down and right at the same time, 
I don't find it too bad at all though

2014-06-20 Thread Matt Dierckens
Hi david.
I think you're confusing quick nag with keyboard commander. No worries though. 
I always turn off quick nag when I have to enter text on a web page.

Re: new version of skype

2014-06-20 Thread Erik Heil
 Hello,
I have used the new version of Skype for IOS quite a bit. From what I've
seen so far, in an attempt to redesign the interface, they did in fact
break a lot of the accessibility that was present in previous versions of
the client. But all is not lost. The recent update that was released
(version 5.1), specifically mentions voiceover improvements.  This
indicates that the developers are aware of issues related to voiceover, and
are working to address those issues.  Perhaps others have more opinions of
this issue, but if I were you, I would not update to the latest version
until all the voiceover issues are addressed, and it is in a state
comparable to what we had in other previous versions.

Re: recommendations for headset with i-Phone 5

2014-06-20 Thread Jenine Stanley
Yeah, I am now using the Aftershokz Blues and there's actually no delay as I'd 
previously experienced with them. I've done several phone calls now and the 
quality is good. As someone said, "you don't sound like you're in as big a 
tunnel." :)

These may work for now. I do need to pad the band going over my head though. 
They keep sliding off. :)

Have you got the new model of the Bluez?  Just that I can't seem to turn the

My headset has never fallen off, may be my head is small as it is!

Re: new version of Skype

2014-06-20 Thread Blake Sinnett
Hi,

I have also used the new Skype version quite a bit. What exactly is broken? 
I've been able to do everything in the new client that I was able to do with 
the prior version.

Thanks,

Subject: Re: new version of skype


Hello, 
I have used the new version of Skype for IOS quite a bit. From what I've seen 
so far, in an attempt to redesign the interface, they did in fact break a lot 
of the accessibility that was present in previous versions of the client. But 
all is not lost. The recent update that was released (version 5.1), 
specifically mentions voiceover improvements.  This indicates that the 
developers are aware of issues related to voiceover, and are working to address 
those issues.  Perhaps others have more opinions of this issue, but if I were 
you, I would not update to the latest version until all the voiceover issues 
are addressed, and it is in a state comparable to what we had in other previous 
versions.

giving lectures, workshops and  presentations. I use Power Point on my
laptop with JAWS to get the work done. When considering  a Mac book I
would  need to have this ability. Last year when I contacted Apple
accessibility I was informed that Keynote is not accessible with Voice
Over as  that this file is an image  file rather than a text based file. I
understand that I can add a windows simulation , plus Office, plus JAWS
but frankly  feel that this is rather ridiculous for purposes of  running
one productivity application.
Has there been any improvement in accessibility to Keynote? I have recent
posts on other list serves that claim all  Apple productivity software is
accessible with Voice Over,  although I have heard the contrary from Apple
last year.
Thank you for taking the time to respond, if members of this list have
used Keynote successfully to create and read  presentations, please send
along  any reference links or guides.
Jule Ann

HI Christopher,

Have you explored the method I just sent along to Jean? Is this enough or
are you looking to completely exterminate Notification Center?

Thanks,

Re: Are there third-Party Scripts or Apps to Modify voiceover

2014-06-20 Thread David Chittenden
VoiceOver is part of the operating system. Therefore, Apple Scripts can 
customise VoiceOver as long as a certain box in the VoiceOver utilities is 
checked. Get to the VO utilities with VO f8 whilst VoiceOver is running.

Actually, you enter an edit box in iOS by double-tapping on the edit box. This 
is the same as turning off keyboard commander on the mac.

There are various voice settings that can be active in the rotor. Go to 
settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, Rotor, to go through all of the 
rotor options. Double-tap to select the options you want. Double-tap toggles 
selection.

Problems With Downloding Maps In Navigon

2014-06-20 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello All,

I'm about to pull my hair out on downloading the 2013 maps for Navigon. I have 
just spent more than 1 hour trying select and get the maps into the map list in 
Navigon. There must be some trick to the trade with this or I am just about to 
take it off the phone. The maps in the map managerkeep refreshing. I did what 
one post suggested to scroll and do a split double tap to select the desired 
map. I then went to the "accept" button and tapped on it. None of my selections 
were placed into the map folder to use. It seems like the current version is 
broken and I'll need to replace it with another GPS app. If there are any 
directions that will assist in the selection process of the maps in the map 
manager folder, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Eileen

Re: recommendations for headset with i-Phone 5

2014-06-20 Thread Terje Strømberg
The Bose Quiet Comfort In Ear is very comfortable in ear, not in the ear canal, 
but right outside like ear buds. Two office services have reported that they 
can`t hear me so well lately, but i am sure this is related to an iPhone error 
i have to look at. The noice reduction is the top referance for consumer 
electronics and so is the support and spare parts store.  I would be very 
surprised if the sound error is Bose related. The Norwegian male voice sounds 
very relaxed with Blind Square. The female is as good as the iPhone speakers.

I have a old pair of Beats by Dr. Dre version with active noice reduction. The 
voice over sounds good in them too.

Take care

Re: Alex on IOS 8

I do not like Daniel either. At the present time, I have to use Samantha. 
However when Alex comes on iOS eight, he will be my preferred voice as I use 
him on the back!

Re: Alex on IOS 8

2014-06-20 Thread Matt Dierckens
I have a guess that alex will only be available to 5S users, which means that 
those of us who have the 5c and under will be stuck with Samantha. I'm only 
speculating this because OSX and the 5S are both 64 bit systems.

Was OS X a 64 bit system when Alex was written though?Saying that, for other

My first clean install of Os X

2014-06-20 Thread Christopher Hallsworth

Hi all
I was frustrated with the stuttering speech at startup on my late 2011 
Macbook Pro 13 inch. I contemplated doing a clean install and finally 
got round to doing this today. I thought I would share my experience 
after years of reinstalling Windows countless times. Fortunately the 
stuttering has gone away for now. Note I was using a flash drive to boot 
into the Os X Installer which I made thanks to a free program called 
Diskmakerx formally Lion Disc Maker.
Let me stress that the entire process can be done completely independent 
of sight thanks to VoiceOver or be it a temporary copy if you like 
shipping with Os X Installer. The Fred voice is used which will remind 
you of Dectalk. Sure VoiceOver does not start automatically, never does, 
but pressing command-f5 is all you need to do to get the installer to 
talk. I believe Braille support is even included so even a deafblind 
person can do this.
I got a bit lost in translation when it came to rebuilding my disk which 
I personally wanted to do so could really start fresh. Turned out all I 
had to do was choose 1 from the partition layout pop-up button, click 
apply and it does the rest including formatting the entire partition in 
this case. So intuitive! Because I was so used to Windows ways of 
reinstalling I thought I had to remove all partitions first. No wonder I 
wasn't getting anywhere as Os X doesn't work like that.
The installation process was very straightforward indeed. Although for 
some reason it got stuck right at the end of preparing to install. I was 
on the landline at the time when the mac suddenly rebooted into the 
installer loaded on the newly created partition. Os X Installer took 
care of the rest. Finally I set up my new install again completely 
independent of sight as by this time you are in the actual Os X 
installation. You do not need to do anything at this point as after 
about a minute a prerecorded voice lets you know about VoiceOver and how 
to get started. All Macs do this whether just bought or after a clean 
install. So just follow the verbal propts and set up your mac.

Hope you find this valuable. Enjoy!

application specific settings and smilies

2014-06-20 Thread Littlefield, Tyler

Hello all:
I'm looking for a way to remove smilies with voiceover. I'm editing code 
with XCode and all the objc symbols end up translating to smilies.


Also, are there app-specific settings? I'd like to turn up punctuation 
mode for XCode and leave it where it is for everything else.


Finally, this is sort of off the topic, but I find editing code with 
Alix a bit weird. I'm used to a more mechanical voice like eloquence 
reading. Are there more productive voices that could possibly work, 
perhaps a method to use ESpeak with voiceover?


Thanks,

Re: Keyboard Commander and entering Text on a Web Page

2014-06-20 Thread Mary Otten
Hi David,
I hope you will write to Apple accessibility requesting this feature. I have 
done that, as I find it really inefficient to have to continuously press keys 
to do something that the system should be smart enough to do on its own. If 
window screen readers can do it and we can have it on the iPhone, we should 
have it on the Mac. So please write Apple and maybe if enough of us do it, they 
will implement.
Mary

Re: Keyboard Commander and entering Text on a Web Page

2014-06-20 Thread David Taylor
If it seems to be something more people find useful, I may well do that. Not 
sure if I'd use it myself as the tab method works well a lot of the time, but 
will think on this more.

Cheers

 For those who don't think anything ever happens with Apple Accessibility, 
 here's a happy story.
 
 I recently decided to stop complaining about a couple issues and take them 
 to Apple Accessibility.
 
 One issue in IOS is the speaking of the word "selected" before some but 
 not all picker items. This is maddening in long lists of items like times.
 
 They responded immediately asking for an example of an app in which this 
 occurs. It's easy to find in the calendar app. I reported such and got a 
 very nice note back stating that the issue has been documented and passed 
 to the appropriate department.
 
 Yeah, I know, that sounds like lip service but I don't think so. I think 
 it actually got done.
 
 I also received detailed instructions for how to report the problem of VO 
 losing focus on some IOS apps. I thought at first it was just the Amazon 
 app but the more I explored the issue, it seems to happen to a lesser 
 degree in other apps as well. I'll have more time this weekend to try the 
 instructions and send a report.
 
 Have I ever heard from Dell when reporting things? Microsoft? rarely and 
 then it is a cnned response. Yay Apple.

Re: Kudos to Apple Accessibility

2014-06-20 Thread Gerard Doody
Hi all, 
I also have joined the ranks of the grateful for the wonderful job the folks at 
Apple Accessibility have done. 
The two peiple I spoke with while helping my friend resurrect her secondhand 
mac, were very patient, knowledgeable and spent hours of time helping myself 
and my friend, who is a new mac user sort this out.  We were able to perform a 
clean install of Maverick and fix her email crash.  They worked with us till 
the job was done.  My friend is a new mac user and the helper there patiently 
walked her through the steps she needed to implement.  
Also, I would like to thank all those in the list who responded to my need at 
the time.

 For those who don't think anything ever happens with Apple Accessibility, 
 here's a happy story.
 
 I recently decided to stop complaining about a couple issues and take them 
 to Apple Accessibility.
 
 One issue in IOS is the speaking of the word "selected" before some but 
 not all picker items. This is maddening in long lists of items like times.
 
 They responded immediately asking for an example of an app in which this 
 occurs. It's easy to find in the calendar app. I reported such and got a 
 very nice note back stating that the issue has been documented and passed 
 to the appropriate department.
 
 Yeah, I know, that sounds like lip service but I don't think so. I think 
 it actually got done.
 
 I also received detailed instructions for how to report the problem of VO 
 losing focus on some IOS apps. I thought at first it was just the Amazon 
 app but the more I explored the issue, it seems to happen to a lesser 
 degree in other apps as well. I'll have more time this weekend to try the 
 instructions and send a report.
 
 Have I ever heard from Dell when reporting things? Microsoft? rarely and 
 then it is a cnned response. Yay Apple.

Hello,

The Nuance Vocalizer Expressive voices for Siri are Nicky and Aaron for the

Re: Square payment system

2014-06-20 Thread Rebecca Blaevoet

Hi Doug,
You can also use the Square payment system by entering credit card 
numbers manually, but the transaction fees are a little higher. I think 
it may be the only option as you naturally need headphones in the 
headphone jack when entering sensitive information like that. Good question.

Hello everybody:
I'm just wondering if anybody has used the square payment system? As I 
understand it the credit card reader plugs into the headphone jack of the 
device. How can one access what's going on on the screen then?

Thanks,

Re: OT can anyone lend any credence to this?

2014-06-20 Thread Rebecca Blaevoet
That was my thought when I first read it. It honestly didn't look like 
something anyone should immediately assume was a genuine email response, 
more like something calculated to cast aspersions on the alleged company.

Hi all

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We can assure you this is

was fabricated

have verified that this is a hoax. I’m sorry for any confusion in this

Text edit problem

2014-06-20 Thread George Cham
I'm having a problem with text edit on the Mac. 

When I open it, it seems to want to open the documents folder. 

How do I fix it, so that when I open it, it presemts  me with the option of 
creating a new document.

Unfortunately, you won't be able to do this by default, but you can press 
command-n in the dialog to bring up a blank document.

Hello,

The Nuance Vocalizer Expressive voices for Siri are Nicky and Aaron for

of these for now. I expect this is an advantage of their partnership.

There's a british female voice for  cerie?  When did that come about?
 I actually was thinking about the new male voice they came out with a

whole new Apple's  choosing to keep quiet about.
