RE: Switching among documents on pages?

2019-05-03 Thread Simon Fogarty
Yeah it sounds like what I know as a USA 101 or similar based keyboard.
As you say Tim
Different countrys have different key layouts
Some of which make typing really interesting when your trying to use the 
machine and have no idea what the keyboard layout is.

Normal is relative :).  European keyboards have a different layout than most 
North American keyboards with respect to their special keys.  The QWERty part 
is the same, but differences elsewhere.  Normal is only normal if it's in your 
experience.

Sorry.  I hope that didn't sound offensive.

I want to switch among two, three or more documents on pages, using a shortcut.
When I took a look on google, people's instructions are to hit command plus

So, what should I do to do what I want?  create a shorcut?  modify a particular

I'm using a macbook pro late 2013.
Thanks for any help.

“Very sharp“ text attribute in iOS

2019-05-03 Thread Phil Halton


In only the last few days I have noticed something new from iOS. It seems that 
it is giving a text attribute for various fields, be there in mail or in apps 
or other places, this text attribute it’s called “very sharp“. It announces 
this in the same manner as it might announce all caps or some other text 
attribute for field. Has anybody else come across this and do you have any idea 
what it is? I think it must be some new setting in the voiceover settings.

Adding Percussions to an MP3 file

2019-05-03 Thread Ibraheem Fakir
Hey list,

Hope all are well. I have an MP3 file of a song, but unfortunately the 
percussions in the song are not heavy enough to be felt by some of by deaf 
students. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way for me to add a base pattern 
or stronger drum pattern to the song so that I can present it for my students 
to feel. Could garage band accomplish this task? If so, anyone have a step by 
step guide? 


Thank you so much for all your help and time. So deeply appreciated!

All best,

Re: “Very sharp“ text attribute in iOS

Hello Phil,

I have not noticed this myself, but others may have. It sounds like your camera 
is trying to describe focus on something? Have you used the camera lately or an 
OCR app? Have you tried closing all your apps in the app switcher and doing a 
hard reboot on your phone? Like I said, this may not be the problem but it 
won’t do any harm. Petrus

Re: PrimePhonic an app for a Classical Music lovers

2019-05-03 Thread 'Jason White' via MacVisionaries
Chrome for Mac works well with speech. With a braille display, however, it 
skips text frequently when advancing the display. I suspect this is an Apple 
problem, as I've encountered it in some other places too.

It definitely works well enough for use with Primephonic, despite their web 
site's accessibility issues.

chrome. But perhaps I should give it another look. Are there any tips? I guess 
I should start a new thread for that. I have reported the accessibility issues 
for the iOS app in particular, and also pointed out the plethora of unlabeled

And they work well. If you are a classical music lover, you should really get 
this app and take it for a 14 day free trial. The subscriptions are eight 
dollars for the so-called premium subscription, which gives you 320 KBBPS which 
is the same as Apple I think. Or $14 a month for lossless streaming of albums 
that they have available with that format. If you are willing to pay for a 
whole year, you can get a 17% discount off of either service. I think it’s 
definitely worth checking into. I have not found a service like Spotify Apple 
Music etc., that is so dedicated for classical listeners. So if you were one of 
those, check it out.

Re: directv now apple tv app broken

2019-05-03 Thread Mary Otten
My sympathies. When that app first came out it was a disaster. The infuriating 
thing about all these apps like DIRECTV or sling or whatever else is your 
paying for a service, they released an update, they break the update, and 
you’re still paying for the service.

Now you’ll be able to save and AutoFill passwords on the web and in apps,
look for the prompt at the bottom of your iPhone when tapping on a password
field

The truth about what's actually good and bad about Apple News+, Apple Insider, Front Page News

2019-05-03 Thread M. Taylor
AppleInsider - FrontPage News - Thursday, May 2, 2019 at 6:52 AM

The truth about what's actually good and bad about Apple News+

It's been hugely hyped and roundly criticized, but after more than a month's
intensive use, Apple News+ has proved to have very specific good and bad
features. Before you sign up, or before you cancel, here's a true Pro/Con
list for Apple News+.

Somewhere between Apple's hype and everyone else's criticisms, lies the
truth about the Apple News+ service. Any service's quality and worth is
always going to be subjective. Yet still there are definite pluses and
minuses which can help you reach the only important issue that matters
-whether Apple News+ is right for you.

AppleInsider has already looked at alternatives and we've even shown you how
to create your own news service, but this time we're strictly concerned
about the good and the bad of Apple News+ after more than a month of
testing.

So whether you've only seen Apple boasting about its brilliance, or you've
heard criticism that Apple News+ isn't as good as its third-party
predecessor, Texture, here are the facts.

Comparing with Texture
Let's get Texture out of the way first. This was an app and a service
whereby you could read magazines and newspapers on various devices. Apple
bought it, shut down the Windows side, then rebranded it, and worked Texture
into its existing Apple News service to create Apple News+.

The general consensus is that Texture was better. It is certainly true that
a cross-platform service is better for us all than one solely reserved for
Apple devices. 
 
Yet there's also been a claim that Texture's navigation, how you found the
magazines you wanted, was better than it is now on Apple News+. We don't buy
that because we've found some oddities in how Texture cataloged its
magazines. Mind you, Apple News+ has exactly the same problems.
Where it's simply wrong to say that Texture was better, is in the number of
magazines you could read. Both Texture and the new Apple service have
boasted hundreds of magazines, but in Texture's case it was pretty close to
exactly 200.
While the magazines included on both Texture and the new Apple service vary
by region -and Texture had two tiers of subscription offering different sets
of titles -we have tried comparing them. It looks to us as if Texture had
around 22 magazine titles that Apple News+ does not, and Apple News+ has
about 75 titles that Texture didn't. 

Apple has added more titles to do with music, art, technology and sport. Its
most significant additions are Scientific American plus BBC titles such as
its science and gardening ones. The magazines it has lost since Texture
closed include pretty big titles such as Smithsonian and GQ Style.
Yet Apple News+ has GQ. And while it doesn't have Martha Stewart Weddings,
it has Martha Stewart Living. You can expect publishers who are trying out
one title will bring in their others if the service is successful enough.

The good
Apple News+ will be an Apple Music-like success and not a Ping-like failure
only if there is enough in it for enough people to enjoy enough. The range
of titles, the way you read them, the whole experience is crucial and Apple
News+ has a lot going for it. 

Firstly, every magazine has both its own topic page and its issues. The
topic page has news stories from the publisher, plus it's headed by not just
the current magazine, but an entire year's worth of back issues. 
 
Typical magazine pages. Notice the issues at the top, the latest stories
down below -and, on the left, the hole in Vogue's page because Apple News+
hasn't loaded a story yet.
Being able to always get the latest issue is a big point in favor of Apple
News+ because if you're interested in even one title, you're getting it
faster than through the mail. If you're regularly interested in more than
one, the $9.99 US or $12.99 Canadian subscription cost is a bargain.
And then the back issues are a huge factor. You can get enjoyably lost going
back through these twelve months of articles and that's what helps you
become steadily more hooked on the service. When you first open it, you can
be unsure that there's anything you want to read, but then as you dig
further, you are more and more rewarded.
That's partly because there are just some world-class magazines on here and
you'll come to see which ones you like. However, it's also because Apple
News+ also learns what you like and presents stories to you in that
irresistible just-one-more fashion.
What's more, when you find an issue you're interested in, you can very
quickly be reading it. Despite their being full of gorgeous double-page
spread graphic designs, you don't have to wait for all of that to download
before you can start reading. It works in the background, bringing you true
magazine quality reading, but without delays.
