Re: adium to read

2014-10-10 Thread Jeffrey Shockley
Hello,
Press Command comma to go into Preferences once you have the Adium window up. 
Then, go to interact with the toolbar and click the "Events" button. then, VO 
right until you get to the table listing the different types of events.
Now, here's where it might get tricky. What you want to do, is go down to the 
"Message Received" event and expand that with VO backslash, or right arrow. 
Then, once you do that, click the "Add button, and in the menu that comes up, 
select "Speak Notification." I think that's what it says, I haven't done it in 
quite a while.
I hope this helps,
Jeffrey

Re: Fusion problems and a question

Just to check off the obvious, how much memory and CPU does your Mac have?

For me the USB stuff has just worked including my Jaws key and various

Re: Fusion problems and a question

2014-10-10 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
Ok, just wanted to make sure you hadn't allocated all your Mac's 
resources to Windows :) Sounds like this was a clean install so you 
should be on the latest virtual hardware version. You can check that in 
the VMWare Fusion preferences under compatibility. On my Fusion 6 Win7 
machine it goes to 10 so I'm assuming the hardware version on yours goes 
to 11. How much disk space did you allocate to the virtual machine? The 
default setting is to grow the disk storage as needed so maybe it's 
still growing that. My basic Win7 machine (Firefox, Jaws) takes 13.9GB.

 kind of disappointing, the last time i used fusion it was version 3 on
 a dual-core i7 with 4gb of ram to share and it seemed faster. Also, my
 macintosh hd is an ssd, so it really disappoints me.

Re: Bookmarks on desktop

2014-10-10 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
The only way I could figure out how to make Web locations without using 
drag and drop was to create one in a text editor. I just open TextEdit, 
make sure I'm in plain text mode and then paste in the following text:



"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>



URL
http://www.aol.com



Then just change the URL on the 6th line to whatever you want and save 
it as something like www.aol.com.webloc. After that, if you open the 
file in Finder it should open Safari right to the URL you put in there.

Re: Fusion problems and a question

2014-10-10 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
Right, VMWare smartly only allocates actual used disk space. That said, 
if you suddenly add a GB of content to your virtual windows machine 
VMWare is going to have to increase the disk spaced used by the virtual 
drive file by 1GB. That allocation process is usually one-way. If you 
delete your 1GB of stuff the virtual drive doesn't shrink back down 
(unless you run some special process). It's a lot faster to save a new 
file in the virtual machine using already available space than to do 
that with VMWare allocating more virtual disk space. So that's why I was 
thinking it might have been initially slower while VMWare kept having to 
allocate more space. After a while vmware should have enough space 
allocated for day to day use and that overhead won't be slowing things 
down. Also, I wonder if Windows doesn't do some kind of drive indexing 
when it's first set up (like OSX).

I just added the email account for the college where I teach Music Appreciation 
to the mail accounts on my Mac. Currently, the account shows up as "Exchange". 
I would like to give the mailbox a more meaningful name, but the option to 
rename the mailbox stays dimmed no matter how often I try to select the correct

Re: How to rename a mailbox

2014-10-10 Thread Phil Halton
It's interesting, I just tried to rename a mailbox from its context menu, but 
pressing VO shift M, while focused on the mailbox name in the mailbox list 
didn't bring up the context menu. But, if I routed the mouse to the mailbox 
name and pressed control and clicked the mousepad, I got the right-click 
context menu and one option in there was to rename the mailbox.
Try control-clicking the mailbox name and see if that gets the menu for you.

Re: Need help with amazon.com

2014-10-10 Thread gs
This worked fine in the prior version of iOS.  I mean with pressing the button 
to add to cart.  with iOS 8 it does not work.  I shop a lot from Amazon and 
generally use the iPhone so this is very inconvenient.  I hope the button bug 
gets fixed in the next release of iOS because it affects many apps.

Re: Need help with amazon.com

2014-10-10 Thread Deb Lewis
Amazon appears to be making some bad changes because I'm having
trouble with more and more screen readers. What I find works best is
to press enter in the edit field after the quantity if I want to add
to cart. If I'm using one click I find that using the roter to get to
the button is most effective. But I do think they're making some
changes so our mileage may vary.

navigating tables in safari

2014-10-10 Thread Faisal
Hi all,
Is it possible to navigate tables by rows and columns in safari? I know in 
pages or text edit, one can just interact with the table and navigate that way 
but this doesn't appear to be possible in safari.

Re: navigating tables in safari

2014-10-10 Thread Nicholas Parsons
Yes, very possible. You use the same commands in fact. To help, however, you 
might like to enable "Group items within" for "When navigating web tables" in 
VoiceOver Utility > Web > Navigation. that is what I do.

Re: Merging cells in Numbers?

2014-10-10 Thread Nicholas Parsons
To add to what Tim said (which was completely correct, of course), you can also 
merge cells from the context menu which you activate with VO-shift-m. However, 
whichever method you use, note that
VoiceOver will not announce that the cells are merged if you hold down the VO 
keys to navigate; and
VoiceOver will not read the contents of the merged cells if you use only arrow 
keys to navigate.
This usually means navigating with only arrow keys, but if you come across 
merged cells you'll need to use the VO keys and/or VO-F3 to read the contents.
Cheers,
Nic

Re: Sending Messages in iOS 8.0.2

2014-10-10 Thread Nicholas Parsons
Yes, as I said originally, the problem only occurs when sending messages from 
apps other than Mail or Messages. Sending messages from within Mail or Messages 
is fine. It's when I send from other apps using the share sheet (e.g. mBraille, 
Contacts, various RSS clients, Safari) that the problem arises.

Based on Greg and others it seems this is a bug in which case I'll take the 
time to report it.

Re: Any free ways to fill out pdf forms

If you were able to enter text directly into the PDF on the PC, then you would 
be able to fill in the PDF directly on the Mac using PDFPen 6.3 and later.
