Looking for a podcast on the notes app on the mac

[denise avant]

Hello all,
I’m wondering if there is a podcast on the notes app for the Mac. I’m running 
the latest Mac OS. And it seems that the notes app on the mac is not as easy as 
the one in IOs. At least that’s my general impression. But maybe I’m 
overloooking something.

Re: Looking for a podcast on the notes app on the mac

[Alex Hall]

The basic setup is a table of accounts, then a table of notes, then a text area 
where the selected note is displayed. On iOS you only see the note, notes list, 
or accounts each on their own screen, but the Mac shows everything as it does 
in most apps. I can't think if we have a podcast on this, but hopefully the 
explanation makes things a little easier.

Hi,

When installing Windows 7 in bootcamp from ISO, is it necessary to manually get

I've been poring through help pages and I can see confusing info.

Many thanks

Re: Confused about bootcamp drivers for windows7 installation on mac

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

You can get BootCamp drivers either while running BootCamp Utility or from the 
Apple Support site.  Some earlier drivers (for XP and Vista, for instance) are 
only on the DVDs that came with the Macs that supported those operating 
systems.  With an ISO and BootCamp Utility you should be directed in the 
creation of a USB stick with both the copy of Windows and the drivers you need 
on it.  Alternatively, you can install the drivers from a USB stick separately 
from installing Windows from a DVD.

Moving between headings at same level?

[Donna Goodin]

Hi all,

How does one do this?  For example, if I'm in an email or webpage and want to 
go between different headings at heading level 4, how can I do this?  I checked 
the AppleVis list of keyboard commands, and it looks like the command should be 
VO+Command+M, but when I try that, I get the message Same Heading Not found.  
And yes, I know there is another heading. :)
TIA,
Donna

Re: Moving between headings at same level?

[Jeffrey Shockley]

Hi,
I just did this earlier in fact.
What you do is turn on Quick Nav, and then you can press the number 
corresponding to the level of heading you want to jump to, and it does it. You 
first have to go into VO Utility and go to Commanders, and the Quick Nav tab, 
and check the box for "Single Letter Webpage Navigation.”
I hope this helps. :)

Re: Moving between headings at same level?

[Donna Goodin]

Just to add a bit more information, when I press the number 4, nothing happens. 
 When I press VO-CMD-M, I get the message Same heading not Found.  Not sure why 
the result is different for these two commands, but it is.
Cheers,

Re: Braille embossers supported by OS X

[gkearney]

OK this is an Index Basic-D embosser built by the Index company of 
Sweden. http://www.indexbraille.com This is a very well known company with 
a wide range of embossers.

Index does indeed offer a MacOS X embossing solution. It works by means of 
a special print driver installed in your Mac. This driver pulls the text 
from a document, but not the formatting, and sends that text to the 
embosser. Inside the embosser itself is an implementation of the liblouis 
Braille translation software which translates the text from you document to 
Braille. (you can, using the embosser controls, select the Braille code to 
use.) Then the Braille is sent on to be embossed.

This works reasonably well but there is a problem. As good as liblouis is 
it, like all other Braille translation software, is not perfect. However 
unlike solutions that run on computers there is no way with this system to 
intercept and correct any errors that liblouis might have made in the 
translation. What ever comes out of the embosser is what you get.

The Index line of embossers as well as most others can also be driven from 
the MacOS X CUPS printing interface as well.

Re: Moving between headings at same level?

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Donna,

Are you having this problem on more than one website? I find since El Capitán, 
some websites behave oddly and VO claims that no headings are present when they 
are.
Normally, using the Web Rotor, you can type a number in the headings list and 
only see the headings of that level. Does this work for you?

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Moving between headings at same level?

[Donna Goodin]

Hi Anne,

I'm having it in the AppleVis newsletter, which I'm reading in Mail.  
Interestingly, when I go to my Facebook homepage in Safari, all works as it 
should.  So perhaps the problem has something to do with AppleVis's document.
Cheers,
Donna

Cutting the cable

[Phil Halton]

I am seriously considering cutting cable Internet, and using personal hotspot 
on my iPhone for Internet access instead. They finally raise the Cable price 
one too many times.

My question concerns performance, particularly concerning streaming video like 
Netflix and Hulu. I could either set up a personal hotspot and connect Apple TV 
to that network, or, I could simply airplay video off my phone over to the 
AppleTV. I don't know which might work a little better or if there would be any 
performance issues with either choice. 

Does anyone have experience with personal hotspot and it's performance? The 
only issue I can see is the need to raise my data plan perhaps up to 10 GB, and 
even with that extra cost by eliminating cable I would save at least 50 a 
month. 

Also, I have a home network being broadcast by my Apple time capsule in and 
that is connected to the cable modem, although I believe that is not a 
necessary connection. Time capsule will still maintain a home network with or 
without Internet access. 

I would be most grateful for any informed opinions on this matter. I've just 
about had it with cable monopolies jacking up the price willy-nilly, And for 
poor performance at that. 
thanks

Odd usb problem.

[Anders Holmberg]

Hi!
I don’t get this.
I can connect my braille display to any usb port on my macbook air.
But i can only connect my keyboard to the usb port on the left hand side on the 
laptop.
For some reason the right hand side port does not like my apple keyboard.
Any ideas?

Re: Odd usb problem.

[Gabe Griffith]

Hi,
I have seen issues with some computers that depending on the device that could 
be a couple of things. One could be that only certain USB ports have enough 
power to properly power that device. The other issue could be that depending on 
what USB port your keyboard was originally recognized on and how drivers set up 
for the computer can always be looking forward on that same port.
Hope that helps a little.
Gabe

Re: Problem with passwords in 1Password

[Jonathan C. Cohn]

So you are getting right to left behavior like you would in Hebrew or Arabic. I 
know there was a Unicode character to switch this, I wonder if you can switch 
it with that somehow.

RE: Confused about bootcamp drivers for windows7 installation on mac

[Simon Fogarty]

Everytime I've done it on my mac mini or my mac book air, bootcamp needs an 
internet connection to get the drivers.

 One step tells you to locate the ISO for the windows image, then you tell it 
where things should be downloaded to  and then once it starts looking for the 
drivers / installation stuff it will download the apple boot camp drivers to a 
usb flash drive and then once that is finished the system comes back and asks 
for your mac admin password for the installation then it re starts, oh and in 
there also is a prompt  to set the size of your windows partition.

Oh and just note that until windows is installed completely and the bootcamp 
drivers installed which is the final step 
You wont have any voice synthesis 
At least I've never been able to get any thing from my bootcamp installations 
until bootcamp drivers have completely installed.

Cheers and good luck.
Hope this helps.

Re: Cutting the cable

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

I can’t offer any opinion on the performance of the networks you’re on, 
although it certainly sounds like the US has a pretty rough time of it when it 
comes to fixed-line broadband competition.  However, I can definitely say that 
using mobile broadband as your primary Internet connectivity, while a highly 
attractive proposition, comes with pitfalls.  Unless you negotiate a certain 
level of service, I’d say it made for no better than a secondary option, in 
case the primary goes down.  It is wireless, so theoretical speeds will never 
be achievable in practice.  You will have to get a “Mi-Fi” router dedicated to 
the task of providing your connectivity, because using an iPhone will probably 
prove frustrating (a five device limit, and frequent disconnections as the 
phone tries to save power).  Then you need to ensure you have the tethering 
add-on and whatever data allowance you might need.  Finally, most mobile 
connectivity uses NAT, so you won’t be running any server services, and you 
might experience less performance with peer-to-peer applications.

But, if you feel you want to, why not give it a try?  It was fun for me while 
I’m holiday—perhaps it’ll be fun for you the whole time.  Indeed, I’ll go out 
on a limb here and suggest that if you want to verify the efficacy of your 
technology choices, you should go on holiday. :)

Apple TV and Time Capsule can both function as wireless clients.  Just join 
them to your new network.  Or, as you said, you could just peer-to-peer stream 
to Apple TV, and continue to use AirPort for providing a non-connected Wi-Fi 
and Ethernet network (you’ll have to disable the warnings).  While joined to a 
wireless network, AirPort’s Ethernet ports are useless.

Re: Cutting the cable

[Phil Halton]

Well, I tried a little experiment and set up the personal hotspot, logged in 
with the Apple TV and then stream TV show on Netflix. That works fine, I 
watched a 50 minute TV show without problems. Then I connected my mac to the 
Wi-Fi hotspot and tried to stream a video on Safari via flash. That was 
disastrous, Lot of buffering issues.
Then I checked my data usage and saw that I used up 1.2 GB with about an hours 
worth of video streaming. That will never work. As you said, it will make a 
good secondary backup system, but never as a primary Internet access. Oh well, 
it looks like Comcast has me right where they want me.

Re: Cutting the cable

Why not purchase an Asus router and set up a NAS or use a USB hard drive? Asus 
routers support mobile broadband modems out of the box. You will have to do 
some reconfiguring in the firmware to make it work, but it will be much better 
than trying to use the phone as a hotspot because it does not have the 
limitations imposed by Apple and allows you to connect wired devices to the 
network.
Who is your wireless provider?

Re: Cutting the cable

[Phil Halton]

My carrier is AT&T, but you know, I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and 
pay the Comcast price for cable connectivity to the Internet. I just don't have 
the time interest or inclination to do a lot of configuring of equipment.

Re: Cutting the cable

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

What about DSL?  If it’s the principle and the caps are all that’s in the way 
of going totally mobile, you won’t mind the reduced speeds of DSL.  You could 
then also go with a business package that gave you better contention, and not 
be treated like dirt on cable with many of the throttles that cable ISPs do.  
You could also run servers or do exhaustive nightly backups and other things 
that you probably can’t now because your upstream is capped or protocols 
prohibited, etc.

Cable does run very sweet with Apple AirPort, though.

Just a thought.

does anybody know if we can backup a PenFriend to a Mac?
Thanks for any help.

Re: Backing up a PendFrend

I haven’t tested actually restoring from a backup, but it’s just a USB drive 
when plugged in, so simply make a copy of the contents.  You could use the 
“Duplicate” command (Command-D) from your desktop to get a folder on your 
desktop with the contents of the drive, for instance.

Hi,
thanks. When I plugged in the PenFriend I could not see it on the desktop or in 
Finder.

Re: Braille embossers supported by OS X

[E.T.]

   Well in that case its a deal breaker. I cannot see working with 
braille documents that way. But as it turns out, I finally got things 
working with the Juliet.

OK this is an Index Basic-D embosser built by the Index company of
Sweden. http://www.indexbraille.com This is a very well known company
with a wide range of embossers.

Index does indeed offer a MacOS X embossing solution. It works by means
of a special print driver installed in your Mac. This driver pulls the
text from a document, but not the formatting, and sends that text to the
embosser. Inside the embosser itself is an implementation of the
liblouis Braille translation software which translates the text from you
document to Braille. (you can, using the embosser controls, select the
Braille code to use.) Then the Braille is sent on to be embossed.

This works reasonably well but there is a problem. As good as liblouis
is it, like all other Braille translation software, is not perfect.
However unlike solutions that run on computers there is no way with this
system to intercept and correct any errors that liblouis might have made
in the translation. What ever comes out of the embosser is what you get.

The Index line of embossers as well as most others can also be driven
from the MacOS X CUPS printing interface as well.

the paper - is an Index Braille trademark. Basic-D V4 produces
double-sided Braille in which achieves all Braille reading demands,
in addition to Braille international standards. The Braille dots are
easy to read and do not wear with age so expect endless
top-of-the-line quality Braille. This reliable dot forming
technology found in the Basic-D is environmentally friendly and
green approved and is sure to save you money comparably.


Easy user interface

User Interface. Basic-D V4 is complete with an easy-to-follow user
interface equipped with on-board speech interface guidance. The
