Re: OT: Airport extreme as extension to existing network

2020-02-05 Thread 'Andrew Lamanche' via MacVisionaries
Hi Sabahattin,

Thank you for this advice.  As you rightly point out the last thing I want is 
to slow down my network.  The reason I purchased Netgear Nighthawk was in order 
to improve the performance of my network.  As the number of devices/computers 
has increased in my home over the last few years, I have noticed AirPort 
Extreme dropping connections a lot and it became a nuisance.  Whilst it still 
works I thought I’d try something more modern and Nighthawk seemed like a very 
good and affordable proposition.  I did however forget the compatibility 
problems with Apple products.  interestingly, I managed to configure my Airport 
Express to join the new Netgear as main router network in bridge mode, which 
allows me to stream music to my Sonos using Airfoil app so that’s good so far.  
I failed entirely with AirPort Extreme 6th generation.  I even worked with an 
Apple support chap and he wasn’t able to make it work either.  Ethernet is not 
an option for me as, well, you know people you live with are a bit fussy and to 
be honest I’d need meters of ethernet cable to achieve what I want.  But I did 
manage to configure the older AirPort Extreme 5th generation to join my wifi 
network as Bridge which allows me at least to use my usb printer connected to 
it remotely.  What I have lost - and it is annoying - is the use of my WD My 
Cloud network drive which used to be attached to AirPort Extreme 5th generation 
ethernet port and now of course my mac doesn’t see it.

You mentioned getting possibly a different extender.  Would you have a 
suggestion as to what I might need in order to use a usb printer, a couple of 
usb external drives and WD my Cloud in order for these to work and be 
recognizable by my mac?  Would it make sense to get a Netgear extender?  I’m 
very unschooled in computer language, and although I’ve learnt an awful lot 
using macs and getting into trouble for years, I’m still very very amateurish.  
So I’d welcome any suggestions for a wifi extender with usb and ethernet ports 
that would play nicely with Netgear Nighthawk.  By the way, mine is Nighthawk 
x6 r8000.  The Netgear genie is not accessible with voiceover but the web 
interface works.

Thanks again and forgive my rather non-technical language.

Andrew

Mac equivalent of JAWS Find Next?

2020-02-05 Thread 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries
Hi all,

One thing I like about JAWS is the ability to initiate a JAWS find, and then 
search for all subsequent occurrences of that text using F3. Is there some 
equivalent of that for Mac/Voiceover?
TIA,

Hello,
Yes there is. The command is VoiceOver plus G for find next and VoiceOver plus

Re: Mac equivalent of JAWS Find Next?

2020-02-05 Thread Pete De Vasto
Donna,

Slight modification to the find instructions: To do the initial find, you do VO 
+ F, then subsequent next and previous finds are done using VO + G and VO + 
Shift plus g. The one thing about this that gets me is that sometimes I forget 
about the find next and previous, and, unlike the JAWS find, VO + F does not 
retain the item you last tried to find. But it still does work and I use it all 
the time.

Re: OT: Airport extreme as extension to existing network

Hi!
It may be that your new router has the latest wifi standard and the Airport may 
not work with that.
It might be something to look into.

Re: OT: Airport extreme as extension to existing network

2020-02-05 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi,

Just a little clarification here.  The problems you were having are not 
specifically due to Apple incompatibilities.  As Sabahattin mentioned, the 
Express has specific features that allow it to be a "repeater".  The Extreme, 
and many other home routers are not meant to be repeaters, but more like the 
centre of your network.   Using WDS, you can chain networks, but performance is 
negatively impacted.  WDS is not specifically an Apple feature, but it is a 
feature that is not really used often anymore.  You may have had similar issues 
if you had had a Linksys router instead of an Extreme.

Hi Sabahattin,

Thank you for this advice.  As you rightly point out the last thing I want is 
to slow down my network.  The reason I purchased Netgear Nighthawk was in order 
to improve the performance of my network.  As the number of devices/computers 
has increased in my home over the last few years, I have noticed AirPort 
Extreme dropping connections a lot and it became a nuisance.  Whilst it still 
works I thought I’d try something more modern and Nighthawk seemed like a very 
good and affordable proposition.  I did however forget the compatibility 
problems with Apple products.  interestingly, I managed to configure my Airport 
Express to join the new Netgear as main router network in bridge mode, which 
allows me to stream music to my Sonos using Airfoil app so that’s good so far.  
I failed entirely with AirPort Extreme 6th generation.  I even worked with an 
Apple support chap and he wasn’t able to make it work either.  Ethernet is not 
an option for me as, well, you know people you live with are a bit fussy and to 
be honest I’d need meters of ethernet cable to achieve what I want.  But I did 
manage to configure the older AirPort Extreme 5th generation to join my wifi 
network as Bridge which allows me at least to use my usb printer connected to 
it remotely.  What I have lost - and it is annoying - is the use of my WD My 
Cloud network drive which used to be attached to AirPort Extreme 5th generation 
ethernet port and now of course my mac doesn’t see it.

You mentioned getting possibly a different extender.  Would you have a 
suggestion as to what I might need in order to use a usb printer, a couple of 
usb external drives and WD my Cloud in order for these to work and be 
recognizable by my mac?  Would it make sense to get a Netgear extender?  I’m 
very unschooled in computer language, and although I’ve learnt an awful lot 
using macs and getting into trouble for years, I’m still very very amateurish.  
So I’d welcome any suggestions for a wifi extender with usb and ethernet ports 
that would play nicely with Netgear Nighthawk.  By the way, mine is Nighthawk 
x6 r8000.  The Netgear genie is not accessible with voiceover but the web 
interface works.

Thanks again and forgive my rather non-technical language.

Andrew

Re: using email tips

Hi, 
One of the easiest ways to attach a file to an email is to find it in your 
finder,  copy it to the clipboard, and paste it into the message body of the 
email. 
I hope that helps.

Vmware Fusion with Linux machines

2020-02-05 Thread Tom Moore
Hi guys,

Has anyone had any problems with the stability of Linux machines after Debian 8 
and Centos 6 as far as Speakup goes in Vmware fusion 11 and 11.5?

This has been an issue that I’ve seen for quite some time, and it is now really 
starting to becoming annoying with newer versions of Linux?

If I use Linux version with out Speakup everything runs just fine.

For the time being what I do is run Debian 8 with Speakup and then ssh into the 
other Linux machines I need to use.

Using Debian 8 as my work station machine isn’t something I’d like to do much 
longer unless I have too!

 

Thanks for any tips you guys might have…

 

Tom

Re: Vmware Fusion with Linux machines

2020-02-05 Thread 'Jason White' via MacVisionaries
Have you tried Fenrir as your screen reader on the Linux machines?

https://linux-a11y.org/index.php?page=fenrir-screenreader

 

There was recently a mailing list discussion of the dependencies that had to be 
installed to run it under Debian. There’s already an Arch Linux package in the 
Arch User Repository. I don’t know the status on other distributions. Once it’s 
running, though, it works well in my experience.

RE: Vmware Fusion with Linux machines

2020-02-05 Thread Tom Moore
Hi,

I have not tried this screen reader as it is hard enough to get the basic 
distributions installed with Speakup for the install process.

Sometimes I can get most of the way through the process and others I cannot.

 

Tom

Re: Playing Media Attached to Keynote Presentations

2020-02-05 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi,

When the media is inserted into the presentation, you can choose whether it 
starts automatically or upon click.  Navigate to the slide where the media 
resides, select the Animate radio button from the Toolbar, then select your 
desired build process from within the Formatter Scroll area.

Later...
