Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi Barry,
thanks for this clarification. I found out I named the file 
DefaultKeybindings.dict and there’s an s too much. ;-) I corrected it and now 
it works like a charm. :-)
Also, thanks for sharing the sources of this cool possibility. That’s one thing 
I love about the Mac: the community. And of course the configurability of Mac 
OS.
I’m gonna share this script in my german podcast as well.
All the best
Jürgen

always two instead of one video

[Ray Foret Jr]

Okay,

For some wierd reason, I set my iPHone to record at 60FPS.  Then, I set it back 
again to 30FPS.  Now, for some reason, when I import videos from my iPhone in 
to my Mac, there seem always to be two videos. One gets imported in to my Mac 
while the other does not.  Any ideas what's going on and how to fix it?

Numbers: Auto Fill

[Jürgen Fleger]

Hi,

I’m able to auto fill a column for example with days of the week or months of a 
year. Works great. Do you know a way of auto filling the column like January 
1st, February 1st, March 1st, etc.. In German we write 1.1.2015, 1.2.2015 and 
so on. I’m not sure wether you use this order type as well for dates.

Thanks and all the best
Jürgen

Speaking contents of merged cells in Numbers

[Greg Aikens]

Hello all,
I have taken a break from the list for quite a while but I’m back with a 
question about Numbers. When I merge cells, I would like for voiceover to read 
the content of the merged cells as I arrow across my table. Right now the 
announcement I get is “H1 through K1 added to selection. H1 through K1 
selected.” If I use VO and the arrow keys, it reads all cells as blank except 
for the leftmost cell, H1, where it reads the text correctly. If I interact 
with the merged cells, I can read the contents. 

Are there any settings I can adjust so that VO just reads me the contents of 
merged cells instead of telling me the range that is highlighted? Keeping the 
range announcement is fine but hearing the contents is what I really want. 

Thanks for any help.

-Greg

As far as I know Shave should be accessible. But it might depend on your needs.

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Donna Goodin]

Hi Bary,

This looks really interesting, but I have a couple of questions.

You said ~/library.  I assume that's the folder that I access by going to 
Macintosh HD, opening it, and going to library?

Second, I was able to create the folder there called keybindings, but when I 
tried to save the file from text Edit, I was told I don't have permission to 
save a file with that filename.  What's up with that?
Thanks,
Donna

Re: anybody know of an actually accessible video editor for the Mac

[Phil Halton]

May I ask; why do you say that Shave should be accessible? Personal experience? 
wild guess? Any more details about the accessibility would be a help. Reading 
the blurb, it says that there is full keyboard control, but I’m not sure I’m 
ready to assume that means its fully accessible either.

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Alex Hall]

The tilde (~) character represents your Home folder. In other words, 
/Users//library is the same thing as ~/library. Trying to save to 
/library (the system's library folder, rather than yours) would have given you 
that error.

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Barry Hadder]

Hi Donna,

You would access ~/Library by going to your home folder with command-shift-h 
and go menu.  In Yosemite and Mavericks, you can also make it visible by 
checking the show library folder in view options.
~/Library is a Unix path and ~ means everything else after it is in your home 
folder.  You could put this in /Library if you want all other users on your 
machine to access it, but you would need to be an administrator to do this and 
I don’t think it’s necessary to put it there.

If you use textedit to save it, make sure it is in UTF8 text format.
Good luck.

Hi Bary,

This looks really interesting, but I have a couple of questions.

You said ~/library.  I assume that's the folder that I access by going to 
Macintosh HD, opening it, and going to library?

Second, I was able to create the folder there called keybindings, but when I 
tried to save the file from text Edit, I was told I don't have permission to 
save a file with that filename.  What's up with that?
Thanks,
Donna

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Barry Hadder]

You said:

I love about the Mac: the community. And of course the configurability of Mac 
OS.

Exactly.
Note that you can change those keys to what ever you want.  Although, I would 
advise staying away from any combination that looks like “^~”.
Also, the moveWordForward and moveWordBackward bindings are over riding the 
special character short cuts option-f and option-b.  If you don’t want that you 
can delete those lines.

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Donna Goodin]

Hi Barry,

OK, so I've got the folder in the right library, but when I try to save from 
text Edit, UTF8 does not show up as an option.
Thanks,
Donna

P.S.  If you didn't use Text Edit to create this file, what would you use?

Go Pro

[Jenine Stanley]

Is anyone using a Go Pro camera system? If so, how accessible is the software 
piece on the iPhone or Mac? 

I want to get one to use with my guide dog’s harness in some interesting way or 
as a body mounted system for me. I’m totally blind and though I have a good 
sense of how to set up and use a camera, I’m more interested in the software 
piece and how easy it is to use with VoiceOver. 

Thanks.

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Barry Hadder]

Hey Donna,

First you will need to go to the format menu and choose make plain text.  That 
will open another copy in text format.  Then you should find the UTF8 plain 
text incoding option in the save dialog.  You will allso want to make sure  to 
uncheck the use .txt box.

I use emacs and many people use vi, but I don’t recommend you try that if you 
aren’t familiar with them.

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Anne Robertson]

Hello,

I just created the document in TextEdit, having set it to plain text before 
copying in all the information. I then just removed the .txt from the file name 
and it worked perfectly. I’m pretty sure that UTF8 is set by default, so if you 
haven’t changed that for some reason, there’s no need to worry.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Donna Goodin]

Hmm.  Well, this seems really cool, but I think you've gone beyond my depth.  
It looks like I've done everything as you describe, but no joy.  When I press 
Ctrl-Space, VO is silent, again silent when I press Ctrl-X.  I then try 
pressing CMD-c to copy, and when I press CMD-V to paste the presumably selected 
text, I'm asked whether I want to convert the document to RTFDB.  Have no idea 
either where that's coming from, or where to begin to figure out what's wrong.  
thanks for the help, Barry, glad it's working for some of you at least. :)

Sorry, one correction, the file format in which I'm prompted to save is RTFD.

Re: Mac DBD Ripper Pro Beginner Questions

[Brian Fischler]

Hey Believer,

I have had the same exact issue you are having with DVDs not being recognized, 
and it is not th ripper rather the DVD drive on the mac. I did a google search 
about this a few weeks ago and you have to go in to some setting on your 
computer and reset the drive which I have not done, got to get the time to do 
it, but yes very frustrating as very few of my discs burnt from Netflix play on 
the mac.

Re: anybody know of an actually accessible video editor for the Mac

A blind friend of mine used it. He told me its accessible and I gave it a quick 
try myself and it worked. But I didn’t dive in it very deeply, that’s why I

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Donna,

VO doesn’t say anything when yu use these commands, but the second one is 
Ctrl-x-x not just one x.

Have you activated and set a short cut for the service New TextEdit window 
containing selection? It’s a quick way to verify that you’ve selected what you 
wanted to select.

Cheers,

Anne

 What you will be able to do is:
 1.  Move the insertion to a point on a page and press control-space to set 
 a mark.
 2.  Move the insertion point to another point either on the same page or a 
 different page.
 3.  Press control-x control-x to select text from the mark to the cursor.
 
 You have to do some things to set that up.
 1.  Create a folder in ~/Library called KeyBindings.
 2.  Copy the following into a text file and save it to the KeyBindings 
 folder as DefaultKeyBinding.dict.
 {
 "^y" = "yankAndSelect:"; //control-y
 "^\@" = "setMark:"; //control-@
 "^w" = "deleteToMark:"; //control-w
 "^x" = { //control-x control-x
 "^x" = "selectToMark:";
 };
 "^ " = "setMark:"; //control-space
 "~f" = "moveWordForward:"; //option-f
 "~b" = "moveWordBackward:"; //option-b
 }
 
 This is mine at it has some other bindings that you may not be interested 
 in, but you don’t need to worry about them.
 
 Now, restart the app if need be it it should work.
 You will also have this functionality in most other text apps on your 
 system including mail and Textedit.
 
 Note that this will allso copy the page break.  If you are not wanting to 
 do that, there is a way around that too, but I will only go in to that if 
 I know you are interested.
 Hope you find this helpful.

Thank you, Anne!  Once again, you've saved the day.  I missed the second X, and 
now it works just as Barry said.  I must say I'm moving into uncharted 
territory today.  I've never heard of the service you talk about below, but 
sounds handy, I'll look into that next. :)

Thanks, Barry, Alex, and Anne for the help.  I wouldn't ever have sorted this 
out without all of you.
Cheers,

 Hi Donna,
 
 You would access ~/Library by going to your home folder with 
 command-shift-h and go menu.  In Yosemite and Mavericks, you can also make 
 it visible by checking the show library folder in view options.
 ~/Library is a Unix path and ~ means everything else after it is in your 
 home folder.  You could put this in /Library if you want all other users 
 on your machine to access it, but you would need to be an administrator to 
 do this and I don’t think it’s necessary to put it there.
 
 If you use textedit to save it, make sure it is in UTF8 text format.
 Good luck.

 Hi Bary,
 
 This looks really interesting, but I have a couple of questions.
 
 You said ~/library.  I assume that's the folder that I access by going to 
 Macintosh HD, opening it, and going to library?
 
 Second, I was able to create the folder there called keybindings, but when 
 I tried to save the file from text Edit, I was told I don't have 
 permission to save a file with that filename.  What's up with that?
 Thanks,

I know that Mike Malarsy did a review on the GoPro and it is accessible to an

Re: Pages and Textedit: Highlighting Text on more then one page

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Donna,

To enable the service New textEdit window containing selection, go to 
SystemPreferences/Keyboard and select Short cuts. in the first table, select 
Services, and in the second table, you need to go quite a long way down to find 
Text. To set a short cut, I suggest you use something with Cmd-Ctrl-Shift as 
these are not used by default by the system. I usually suggest Cmd-Ctrl-Shift-t 
for TextEdit.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Markdown Editor

[Yuma Antoine Decaux]

Hi,

You can try pandoc.

It’s a command line tool that exports from html to markdown, vice versa, latex 
to html or mark down, vice versa and many other formats.

The command is as follows considering you are in a folder with your original 
.txt say /test/ and test.txt

pandoc -o test.html test.txt
where -o is the output to file and last argument is the source file.

it works on unix linux and windows.

Here’s the link:
