creating a new itunes library

[Marissa Manzino]

Hi everyone,


DOes anyone know how to create an itunes library? I have two different users 
and would like them to each have their own library. It seems that when I ipen 
Itunes and hold down the option key, this does not bring up the dialog to 
choose new library. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? THank you for any 
assistance.

Musically,
Allison

Re: Pages - auto page numbering in footer

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Phil,

Sorry for the delay in answering this question but I needed sighted help and my 
husband didn’t have time until now.

VoiceOver misreports the page number. If you want to know what it really says, 
you have to highlight the number field and use the New TextEdit window with 
selection service. I always have a short cut for this as it has been extremely 
useful in Pages for years.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: question about Growl

No, it doesn’t look like any applications are showing up. I will look again to 
make sure. I may have not interacted with the applications area correctly.

Re: getting started

[Juliette Swiler]

I would strongly recommend the Learning VoiceOver with the Mac book from 
National Braille Press. Also, I would strongly recommend getting a subscription 
to the Mac Masters Series from Fedora Outlier LLC.  The web site is 
www.fedoraoutlier.com .  Hope this helps. Also, 
you should seek out www.applevis.com , and look under 
the Mac section for guides and tutorials.

Re: flash content

[Juliette Swiler]

I have both a NFL game rewind and audio pass subscription that use flash player 
to play the content. They both work extremely well on the Mac as long as you 
have flash player installed. You just have to install Flash Player first.

Cloud drives in terminal

When someone has a cloud drive such as with apple or google, does it show

treee does it appear, perhaps /volumes?

Re: Cloud drives in terminal

Dropbox and Box are folders in the user's home directory. The new iCloud Drive 
is, as far as I know, a sim link or alias to a directory buried in the library 
folder.

Re: Pages - auto page numbering in footer

[Phil Halton]

thanks Ann,
What a quirky little beast pages is. To date, I am using it only to assemble 
draft files I have created and formatted in text edit, into a final document. 
It’s only draw for me is the headers and footers capability, and use of tables.
Using the formatting features, specifically the styles features is something I 
don’t bother with any more.

Re: Cloud drives in terminal

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

As Alex mentioned, DropBox, Google Drive and some others create a folder in 
your Home drive, so in Terminal, it would be ~/Google\ Drive or 
/Users/My_Home_Folder/Google\ Drive.  The iCloud Drive is buried in 
~/Library/Mobile\ Documents.

Re: creating a new itunes library

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

If you created two users, one for each from within the Users & Groups pane of 
System Preferences, then you would automatically have two separate iTunes 
Libraries as well as two different everything related to each user.  All apps 
would be shared but the data associated with each would be independent.

Re: Why aren't my pdf files reading any longer?

[Faisal ali]

Respectfully, I don’t know how complex the pdf files are that you are working 
with Tim. My average article has 140 pages, with several headings and sub 
headings not to mentions captions, end notes, foot notes and complicated 
formatting which is typical of academic journals. A lot of these also have 
several pictures in them so they are pretty complex. I would imagine if its a 
pdf file with, say 20 or even 40 pages with no fancy formatting or pictures, 
there would be no problems.

Re: Pages - auto page numbering in footer

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Phil,

I’ve reported the problem of VoiceOver misreporting the page number to Apple 
Accessibility but I doubt anything will be done about it for a good while yet. 
The comforting thing to know is that the pages are in fact numbered correctly 
and there is a way to verify this.

I like Pages for writing as it’s so easy to apply a paragraph style now that we 
have the short cuts back. It’s true that in the latest version of Pages and 
Yosemite, we’ve lost the ability to reach the menu button with VO, but we can 
still do it using either the trackpad or Mouse keys.

When using Pages, I often set hotspots in various places to make it easier to 
get information quickly.

Cheers,

Anne

Western Digital accessibility of WD My Cloud storage devices

[Andrew Lamanche]

Hi Listers,

I recently asked questions about WD My Cloud storage device application 
accessibility.  Frustrated by lack of accessibility for such an interesting 
device, I have been writing to WD to try to make them understand the 
difficulties Voiceover users face.  Firstly, I had issued a support ticket on 
their website to which initially I received no answer.  Worried that they might 
shove accessibility under the carpet, I had an idea of finding them on 
Facebook.  I wrote on their wall outlining the difficulties I was having with 
their desktop app and urging them to improve accessibility.  Much to my 
surprise and subsequently excitement, I got a positive response.  WD team 
member has also just responded to my support case, asking for more details of 
my difficulties which I have just responded too.

I was just wondering whether it might help if others who also have this device 
and already said they had trouble accessing the desktop app, could also write 
on WD’s wall on Facebook.  I mean write courteously and firmly with a request 
for improvements to accessibility, especially if you had tried other related 
software to the WD My cloud devices.  I hope we may be on the winner here.  
never thought Facebook carried so much clout!

Best wishes

Andrew

Hi Gabriele. Amadeus Pro is not bad at all. I get a lot of work done with it.

Re: Why aren't my pdf files reading any longer?

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi Faisal,

Admittedly, the pdf’s I frequently access are not as large as you’ve mentioned, 
although, just for investigative purposes, I opened a pdf I used to access on 
Open Directory Administration within OS X Servers.  This pdf is 295 pages long 
with many or most of the elements you mentioned in the academic articles you 
are required to read.  Upon opening it, VO announced that the document was 295 
pages long and landed me on the pdf Content area.  I interacted twice and began 
reading with no issues.  Of course, I didn’t take the time to read all 295 
pages but whether I went line by line or VO-a to start reading from where I 
was, VO read the pdf just fine.  I realize that there are issues within Preview 
and it’s handling of certain tables and such within the document, but the 
headings, sub-headings and other textual content was read normally.  Images 
and/or figure 2, for example, were not read for obvious reasons.  I guess what 
I’m saying is that I don’t believe that the size of the file is the issue.  I’m 
not sure what the issue is, nor am I trying to say that there’s no problems at 
all with Preview, but, I appear to be able to use Preview just fine with most 
pdfs.

Later...

Re: Why aren't my pdf files reading any longer?

[Andrew Lamanche]

Hi Tim,

It’s very curious that you have had no issues with Preview since upgrading to 
yosemite.  For me, the problems started exactly after I had upgraded to the 
latest OS.  I wonder whether you think that this may have something to do with 
the age of the mac I have.  My macbook air is late 2010 and has only 4GB RAM.  
However this was never a problem under Maverick.  The other strange thing is 
that quite often, if I call up contextual menu on a pdf file and choose open 
with, instead of the usual list of apps that I might choose to open the said 
pdf file with, I get just one result, i.e. fetching.  I have no idea what 
fetching is.  There’s nothing else in the list.  This is most odd.

Best wishes

Andrew

Online Banking Accessibility

[Brian Fischler]

Hey all,

I wanted to check if anyone on the list in banking with Chase and how is their 
website with VO accessibility? I am banking with Citibank and have been for 15 
years, and am fed up with them, as Citibank completely redesigned their website 
and in doing so broke all accessibility on the mac, and their customer service 
will not handle some basic tasks for me over the phone, so I am fed up. 
Currently Citibank’s iPhone app works pretty good with VO, but who knows if 
they decide to redesign it and with their history of completely ignoring 
accessibility I am finally looking in to switching banks. I also have heard 
that Chase’s iPhone app works pretty good with VO on the iPhone, so if you use 
it and confirm this is true it would be appreciated. Thanks,

Re: Why aren't my pdf files reading any longer?

Andrew,

Re: Why aren't my pdf files reading any longer?

[Joseph]

Hello,
Here's something rather strange that I found about reading PDF files.
In many instances, I can get the PDF to read if I use Open With and select 
Safari.
What's strange is that many times when on a web page where a pdf file is 
brought up, it will not read the file. But when I open the file from my local 
machine, it usually works.
Just interact and read. Remember that this isn't a way to use table of contents 
or the like, just reading a pile of text.
But after you interact, you can use VO Shift PageDown or PageUp to read in 
paragraph units.
HTH.

Re: MAMP

['Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries]

You just have to turn it on in the apache config file. It's been a while 
since I did it but I think it was in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and I had 
to remove the comment "#" from the front of the line that loaded the PHP 
module. Just pulled it up and the line should be like this:


LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so

You'll have to stop and start apache after the change. I also modified 
the php5_module to process all .html files and not just .php files:



#CB 10/8/14 Added .html so PHP is processed on all files
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php



This was on OSX 10.7 but should be similar for newer versions of OSX. I 
really need to upgrade that web server box :)

Hi there,

I was having some problems with my installation of MAMP, so I have removed
it and downloaded the most recent version and installed it.

I am unable to get to the default web location, I just get the main start
page.  When I click on the "My Website" link, I get a message that Safari
can't find www.localhost - Why would it be looking for www.localhost instead
of localhost and how can I change/fix this?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Re: MAMP

[BobH.]

Not being a good Mac user yet, I don't know how you'd check if httpd or 
apache were running, or how you make them run.

open a browser and type localhost, or 127.0.0.0 which is the same thing.

See what if anything, comes back.
If you get 404 page not found, then you don't have any kind of web service 
running.
It's something that would need a lot of set up,  certainly some setup for 
security's sake.

I'd presume the Mail function would be available to PHP scripts,  I have 
been known to write a simple form in a small .html file,  which points back 
to a not very complicated .php file to process it,  which submits contents 
of the fields to the mail function;  my simplest and quickest way to get an 
email out without fuss.
I dare say a spammer could use an iteration loop to do it on mass.
But there's some useful basic stuff one can scribble in PHP you could 
operate via local web pages. With sql running, you have a great database 
system to do things with.
Could place to test file sets before uploading to your public hosting 
platform or service.

This is what I used XAMPP for these past years. That was the Win version.

For stuff like this, I could really like Mac, if I could get to really like 
its Editr.

Air drop

[Jenine Stanley]

This is what I get for not reading the threads about Air Drop. 

I’m trying to send a file from my 2012 MBP to my iPhone. Both have the most 
recent software updates. They cannot talk to each other via bluetooth though, 
or so they say. 

Given this fact, and given that the phone is a 5S and that’s the reason the 
bluetooth doesn’t work, can Air Drop work? 

I’ve tried it and I see a phone but I’m pretty sure it’s my 5 for work as it 
has a different name than my personal 5S. 

I’ve tried doing Air Drop from the menu of a file and see no “send” button. 
I’ve tried it from the finder screen also with no luck.

Re: Online Banking Accessibility

Yes, its accessible.  I’ve been using them for several years and use their bill 
pay for most of my bills. I use the rotor for headings and buttons to get 
things done quicker, and I also use my VO+i, to list items for quick searches.  
The only thing is that it might take you a while to get familiar with the site.

Re: MAMP

Well, there are a lot of editors out there so you can use whatever you 
like. Old school folks swear by (or at) vi while other just use TextEdit 
with all the rich text stuff turned off. There are numerous other

open a browser and type localhost, or 127.0.0.0 which is the same thing.

See what if anything, comes back.
If you get 404 page not found, then you don't have any kind of web service
running.
It's something that would need a lot of set up,  certainly some setup for
security's sake.

I'd presume the Mail function would be available to PHP scripts,  I have
been known to write a simple form in a small .html file,  which points back
to a not very complicated .php file to process it,  which submits contents
of the fields to the mail function;  my simplest and quickest way to get an
email out without fuss.
I dare say a spammer could use an iteration loop to do it on mass.
But there's some useful basic stuff one can scribble in PHP you could
operate via local web pages. With sql running, you have a great database
system to do things with.
Could place to test file sets before uploading to your public hosting
platform or service.

This is what I used XAMPP for these past years. That was the Win version.

For stuff like this, I could really like Mac, if I could get to really like
its Editr.

Just curious why you need MAMP when OSX already has Apache and PHP

A page with a link like that is erronious. Glad to see someone else using

Hi there,

I was having some problems with my installation of MAMP, so I have
removed
it and downloaded the most recent version and installed it.

I am unable to get to the default web location, I just get the main start
page.  When I click on the "My Website" link, I get a message that Safari
can't find www.localhost - Why would it be looking for www.localhost
instead
of localhost and how can I change/fix this?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Tia,
Jeff

Re: Air drop

[Alex Hall]

The bluetooth on the 5S will support Airdrop with no problem. On the phone, is 
Airdrop set to "everyone"? That sometimes fixes things. To actually select your 
phone on the Mac, remember that you'll need to find the table of devices, 
interact, go to the row for the device, route the mouse there with vo-cmd-f5, 
then click (or vo-shift-space).

Re: my experience with apple's technical support service.

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi there 
Did you call the accessibility number, 877-204-3930? Because if you called the 
regular AppleCare number, you should have been transferred there. In fact, I 
don’t let any customer service people get away with getting another sighted 
person to get involved. I found that increases the call time. With Apple, for 
instance, most of the time, unless it is something that can’t be resolved over 
the phone, the advisors know basic VoiceOver commands pretty well these days. 
This didn’t used to be the case, but it has been my experience these days that 
those senior advisors that are assigned to the accessibility line know at least 
the basics of VoiceOver commands. I have had very good luck with the 
accessibility line, and I must admit having called it many times during the 
past three years.

Slow response on network drive

[Rob Bender]

Hello.  I have a WD MyBook Live Duo network drive.  I have very slow response 
time when opening folders when using my MacBook Pro mid 2010 model. I have fast 
response when accessing the drive from a Windows machine or with Windows 7 
running under VMWare Fusion on my MaCBook.  Does anyone have any ideas?  I left 
the MyBook drive formatted as NTFS so it is accessible from both Windows and 
Mac.  I also have the NTFS app from Paragon so I can write to NTFS drives from 
the Mac.

Thanks for any ideas in advance.

Re: David Woodbridge's book from iBooks

[Andrew Lamanche]

No, you should be able to read anything you get from ibooks either on your mac 
or on your iOS devices.  When you open ibooks on your iOS device, at the bottom 
of the screen you have a few tabs.  First one on the left is “my books”.  
Double-tap it to select it and check whether your book is there.  If not, you 
could try and choose the rightmost tab which is “purchased” and you will be 
taken to a screen where at the top you have a choice of either “all” or “not on 
this device”.  Check both of those.  The book must be available to you.  At 
least all mine can be found in either this way.

Re: getting started

	where do you download that free book? I do have access to bookshare so 
I'll look around up there.

Hello Lorie,

You can download a free iBook called Mastering the Macintosh with VoiceOver.

Also, when I purchased my first Mac, I also purchased a hardcopy user guide 
from Light House for the Blind.
Here is the info I have for them:

is there a place where I can download a "Getting STarted with the Mac"

as I try to get the new machine up and running? I can listen to podcasts but if 
I haven't interacted with the Mac yet it's hard to remember the content of them.

Re: getting started

[Lorie McCloud]

you're right. if you can put an Ibook in the braille note, I don't know 
about it. I have't had any experience with Ibooks yet. I did a little 
poking around on Applevis. guess I'll have to do some more.

The only thing is, you can't put an iBooks book on a BrailleNote as far
as I know. You'll need an iOS device or some other way of reading the
book as you go through it. Of course, there is also the getting started
page for Mac users on applevis.com .

Re: flash content

[Lorie McCloud]

I never cared that much for flash, but there's this one site that uses 
it exclusively. it's an educational site. they don't have a lot of money 
so I don't think they'll be changing that any time soon. lol.

You can play flash content, but the controls are not accessible. Fortunately

Deleting photos permanently from photo stream

[Lisette Wesseling]

Hi all,
I know the rule used to be that if you deleted something from your iPhone 
camera rol, it was deleted from photo stream, iPhoto and everything. 
Now that the camera roll opens up iPhoto if you want to view all photos, how do 
you delete a photo permanently? If I delete a photo from my iPhone using the 
Photos app, will it be permanently deleted from everything so I never see it 
again? I don't want to spend time deleting photos, only to have them stick 
around in my photostream.
Thanks for any clarification.

Lisette

can you use a mac to put stuff on the sd card for the vr-stream? I know 
the stream doesn't play all the same formats as the Mac but I want to be 
able to put stuff on its card from my computer.


Thanks.

Apple Script again

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Folkes,

a while ago Nic helped me by creating an Apple Script to perform a left mouse 
click. It works great.

Now I tried to use the same script to perform a right click. I included the 
word right to the script. The line now goes
perform command "right click mouse"

Unfortunately it doesn't work. Is anyone out there who could help me again to 
correct this line?

Thanks and 
all the best
Jürgen
