Re: KNFB Reader

[Chris G]

I did something similar with a Windows phone.
I needed to move through a text character by character.  I couldn't do 
it, so I grabbed the iPhone using KNFB Reader and took a picture of the 
Windows phone screen and was able to get the text and read it character 
by character.

Re: How to extract the attached file to a message

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

This part isn’t particularly accessible although doable.  If I recall correctly 
you need to focus on the attachment, bring the mouse to the VO cursor with 
VO-cmd-f5, then physically click your mouse or trackpad.  If that doesn’t quite 
do it, you may need to move the mouse or your finger on the trackpad a little 
up, down, right, or left then click again.  It was kind of a “trial and error” 
thing, I remember, but it is doable after you figure out exactly where the 
attachment actually is.

Hi,

I recommend doing what it says and make a duplicate.  That way you can hammer 
away on it safely until it does what you want.
It’s a good idea to put scripts that you do in ~/Library/scripts.

Re: Notification center on mac.

[Alex Hall]

Open the Notifications Center. At the bottom of the window is a "Notification 
Center Preferences" button; activate that, and you'll find a table of 
notification-enabled apps. Simply arrow to the app you want, and vo-right to 
the options. You can decide the alert style (none, banners, or alerts), uncheck 
the "show in Notification Center" box to remove the app, control how many 
notifications appear at a time, and so on. Some apps have extra controls, so 
don't assume they are all identical, and have a good look at the options for 
each app you want to configure.

In the app store or in itunes? The app store won't have any content.

Re: Scraping an Entire Website

['Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries]

I have macports set up on my machine

https://www.macports.org

so that makes it easy to add additional packages. With that I just do

sudo port install wget

enter my computer's password and it installs wget. Once you have wget 
you can crawl/archive an entire site with this command:


wget -mcrpk -o process.log http://www.somesite.com

Parameters:

O - output of the process is written to a file instead of the display. 
In this case I logged everything to process.log

M - Mirror - copies timestamps and recursion
C - Continues a partly-downloaded transfer. Probably not as big an issue 
on a functioning web site
R - Recursion, but this might not have been needed with the M. Figured 
it didn't hurt.

P - Download any page dependencies like CSS, images etc.
K - Convert all links to relative URLs so it doesn't keep trying to link 
off to the original site or path


That should be it. You'll end up with a folder with everything in it. 
You can turn on apache on your Mac and browse the site with Safari if 
you like. You can also open the files in Safari but some stuff like 
Ajaxed dynamic content won't work. You probably won't want to re-host it 
as is since some shared assets will be duplicated. Another caveat is 
that if you have secret URLs that are not linked from anywhere on your 
site the crawler will not be able to find them.

how to use the home button with my macbook air and vmware fusion?

Hi everyone,
vmware fusion is working well for me icm its own keymapping for alt and windows 
and sharpkeys for insert (i use the right shift for that).
on the mac i use cmd+up arrow to go to the beginning of a document, i found on 
a site that you can use fn+left arror to use home (beginning of document) but 
that does not seem to do anything. 
So, does anyone know how i can ge tthe home commandto work within 
windows/vmware fusion? I have set the function keys to behave normally.

app store on mac

[Rhonda Hornbacher]

Hi folks,

I am attempting to purchase an app on the iTunes app store. I have the most 
current iTunes, Mac OS, iPhone  6 with most current software update.

I can only occasionally find the iTunes store. Smile. Any suggestions on how to 
consistently find the store?

Once I did find the store and tried to search the store. I put in my app name 
but was given suggestions that were not my app. I only found the main page of 
the store and no list of apps.

What am I doing wrong? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If you need 
further information, please let me know.

Thank you,
Rhonda

What's your new script, at least the first few lines, look like? Also, as

Re: Permissions

[The Believer]

   Ok I put the script into ~/library/scripts. I see where I went 
wrong, I used the recents from the Go menu to get to the library folder.


   Then went into Commanders again and set that, still nothing happens.

   I am using your date and time script, did not touch anything but the 
keywords.

Re: app store on mac

[Eugenia Firth]

Hi Rhonda 
Are you wanting to get an app for your iPhone or an app for your computer? If 
it's the iPhone, I have found it easier to go to the app store on the iPhone. 
If it's your computer, you can go there with your dock by pressing control 
option d and then typing the letters ap. You can also go there with the Apple 
menu by press- control option m and go down arrow until it says app store. For 
the Mac, you will want to then press command f to type a search for the app you 
want. 
You can buy an app for your iPhone on your computer, but I think it's a lot 
easier to go there from your home screen on the iPhone. Hope this helps.

Talking Dashboard Script Broken (was: Permissions)

[Alex Hall]

Even if you mistype a keyword, the script itself will run. The only way that 
could be broken is if you introduced a character that threw it off, like a 
quotation mark. Can you paste the part of the script you modified so I can have 
a look?

Help I seemed to have broken toggling between open applications

[Brian Fischler]

Not sure what I did as I was playing around in the keyboard shortcuts in system 
preferences. I did not think I changed anything but now all of the sudden 
command tab does not cycle through open applications rather it seems like the 
command key is being ignored and just tab is being recognized and jumping from 
one element to the next. Also command accent does not seem to toggle me between 
open windows in the same program anymore. Forxt example when I have two windows 
opened in safari I can no longer easily toggle between the open windows. Not 
sure what I did, any ideas? Thanks.

Creating a slideshow

[Traci Duncan]

Hi all,

I looked back in the archives, but didn’t find any answers.

I want to create a short slideshow, with 6 photos and a music track.  I also 
want to set the order of the photos.

How do y’all do this?  Which apps etc.?

A couple years ago, I successfully did part of this via iPhoto, however I 
couldn’t reorder my photos.

Any suggestions?

Re: Help I seemed to have broken toggling between open applications

Ok so restarting my computer got tabbing between apps and accent between 
windows working again, but curious if this has ever happened to anyone else? 
Not sure what I did. Very strange behavior.

Re: Say Ram Status script

[Alex Hall]

I haven't been able to. I looked at it, and as far as I can tell, the output 
from Mountain Lion is the same as the output from Mavericks and Yosemite, so I 
can't figure out where it is breaking. My understanding, though, is that 10.9 
and later handle ram differently now, and will always show it as mostly or 
completely used even if it isn't. I have therefore not been too worried about 
fixing the script, not that I have a clue why it's broken.

Re: Apple script doesn't work

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Jonathan,

it’s a while ago but I hope you’ll support me again.

I tried the following script:

tell commander
perform command "move mouse pointer to voiceover cursor"
delay 1
end tell
output mouse summary
tell mouse cursor
click twice
End Tell 

Unfortunately it didn’t work. Script Editor showed an error message saying it 
expected end of line but found an identifier. Could you try it once more and 
see if there is anything wrong with the script? If it works correctly I’m able 
to change it to right click.

Thanks and 
all the best
Jürgen

Re: Permissions

[The Believer]

Alex,
   I retrieved the script from the zip archive and put it in the proper 
folder and pointed the commander to it. Still does not work. So now I 
know its not the script itself.


   Perhaps a setting somewhere? I did enable commanders.

Re: Permissions

I know it works - I use it all the time. Are you sure the change stuck? That 
is, are you certain the commander points to the new script, and that it didn't 
somehow revert to the previous (broken) one?

Re: app store on mac

[Colin Matthews]

Hi!
OK when on iTunes on the Mac and lets say your on your music you should find 
buttons like my music, playlists and then iTunes store!
Just VO space on the store button and after it refreshes just press Command+7 
and that will put you into the App store part of iTunes!
And until you decide to leave the iTunes store those commands will take you to 
that part of the store, like Command+1 will take you back to the music part of 
the store!

Re: Apple script doesn't work

[Jonathan C Cohn]

Good Day,

Just so happened I looked at the list today! The problem is that in Tell 
Commander AppleScript does not know the object you can either wrap the entire 
script in 

Tell application “VoiceOver”
…
End Tell 

Or at the beginning use the use clause to say you are working with VoiceOver 
throughout the script.
use  application “VoiceOver” 

Are you thinking of adding in a dialog to ask if the mouse found the correct 
point to click?

Re: Help I seemed to have broken toggling between open applications

I think that preference pane will sometimes override some of the standard 
keyboard shortcuts while it is active. Try going back to the preference pane 
and see if the problem starts again. Then quit Preference and see if the 
problem stops.

I have no problems getting to attachments in Mail on 10.10.2  The process is as

1. Move to the bottom of the message text .
2. VO Right until you find the attachment it is almost always near the end.
3. use VO-Space 
4. Select Open or Open with. I have had no luck with the  command-y in

I believe that the post is referring to an attachment to a text message, not an

Yes, Command right arrow twice. Command right once will take you to your 
mentions and and again will take you to your DMs. You can do it again to go to 
Favorites then lists then search,then you’ll wrap back to your main time line. 
Obviously you can go back and forwards with left or right arrows as you wish.

Calendar list view gone

[Phil Halton]

My calendar on the iPhone was working fine, giving me a list view of all 
events. Then yesterday I entered a few calendar dates on the Mac and now the 
iPhone app has lost the list view and now displays that month view that only 
says how many events on any given day, and you have to interact to see what 
they are.
Does anyone know how to get the simple list view of events back?
I remember this happening once way back and we had a fix for this that got the 
list view back, but can’t remember it now. Nor can I find anyway out of the 
month or year views.
Please help, the app is next to useless now.

Re: a messages section for Nighowl

Control with numbers will also do it. For instance, ctrl-1 is your first tab, 
or Home; ctrl-2 is Mentions; ctrl-3 is Messages (or DMs, whatever you want to 
call it); and so forth.

Re: Calendar list view gone

[Alex Hall]

Just tap a day in the month and it should display the list under the gird of 
days. If not, tap the List View button on, I believe, the bottom of the screen. 
Or am I misunderstanding the question?

dock problem in osemite

[Donald Bishop]

I downloaded menutab and installed it into the applications folder.  I then 
created an item for it on the dock.
I did something to menutab so uninstalled and then reinstalled.   Thing is that 
I can’t seem to delete it from the dock as that entry is apparently pointing to 
my original install of menutab.  

So, two questions:

1.  how do I delete this old item from the dock.  Secondly, how do I add the 
correct link to menutab onto the dock.  

I think the command list I have is inaccurate which doesn’t help.

Can anyone help me get out of this?

Thanks,

Don

Re: Apple script doesn't work

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Jonathan,

I’m confused because I don’t know Apple Script that good to play around with 
just single terms and changing lines. I wasn’t able to replace the line because 
I didn’t know where to put it. So my request was if you could change the 
following script so that I could just copy an paste it to Script Editor 
completely. So could you do the changes and leave the script completely in your 
answer e-mail?

tell commander
perform command "move mouse pointer to voiceover cursor"
delay 1
end tell
output mouse summary
tell mouse cursor
click twice
End Tell 

Would be really helpful for me to receive the complete script including the 
necessary changes.

All the best
Jürgen

 Hi,
 
 I tried to extend an Apple Script from performing a cingle left mouse 
 click to perform a double left mouse click. It does perform the double 
 mouse click as far as I can tell it from my ears. Unfortunately it doesn’t 
 work lik a double click.
 Example: If I go to a file, route the mouse cursor there manually by 
 pressing VO + CMD + F5, press then VO + Shift + Space twice, it works fine 
 to open the file.
 But if I use the following script it sounds as if it performs a double 
 mouse click but the file doesn't open. Here’s the script:
 
 tell application "VoiceOver"
tell commander
perform command "move mouse pointer to voiceover cursor"
delay 1
perform command "click mouse"
delay 0.3
perform command "click mouse"
end tell -- commander
 end tell — VoiceOver
 
 So, does anybody sees why the script doesn’t work the way I want it to?
 
 Thanks and all the best
 Jürgen
