Re: Screen Sharing with Zoom
Hey there, Thanks for this. My issue is that zoom is not listed in the table of apps for which I could allow screen sharing permissions. Its listed for microphone and camera, but in the table for screen sharing, Zoom isn’t there at all. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled Zoom but for some reason still don’t see it in the screen sharing table for me to grant it permissions. I’m stumped here.

Using Markdown for NoteTaking and imbedding Audio recordings
Hey list, I hope all are well and safe. I’m looking for a better way to take notes. I’ve heard something about markdown mentioned here on this group but am unsure how it works and would appreciate any guidance on getting setup with using it. Additionally, I was wondering if someone knew of an app or way to type notes in text while simultaneously imbedding audio recordings at different places in my notes to refer to. For example, sometimes when Im taking notes in my Arabic language class, it would be super helpful to make audio recordings on the fly of the various subtleties posed by new vocabulary words and have those audio files imbedded under the appropriate headers of my notes. Hope this makes sense. Any suggestions are deeply appreciated. All best, Ibraheem -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.

Realizing how unaware they were, I decided not to push on and to cross check with others to make sure I’m doing this right. Do I need any special card or something in order to use the service? I simply wrote free matter for the blind on the box. The post office seemed to have an issue with me being an individual sending the package. They said that only libraries can use the service. ON the contrary, my research seems to show that anyone who is sending materials to eligible patrons can use the service. They weren’t trying to hear that LOL.

Re: Off Topic Free Matter for the Blind Shipping
Thanks for these suggestions. Dave, it’s more like an uneducated set of staff. Even the supervisor I spoke to had no idea what I was talking about. I’ll return to them with proof of disability from a doctor along with their own postal code for free matter and give it another try. Its a big package of braille books so unsure where to discreetly slip it without having to go through the uninformed postal officer’s.

Re: Off Topic Free Matter for the Blind Shipping
I am totally fine with filling out an application for a permit had they asked me to. Instead they hit me with a hard refusal.

Advice on Reading Candle Stick Charts
Hi group, Interested in taking a deeper plunge into the world of financial investments, I’d like to find a way to do technical analysis of stocks. I’m unsure how to access candle stick charts. I’ve tried the SAS Graphics Accelerator but unfortunately it can’t extract the chart information because the number of cells in each row is not uniform. Would love to hear your thoughts on work arounds. There’s got to be a way for visually impaired to play a more serious role in this field and do our own technical analysis.

Windows 7 64 bit won't recognize Enabling Phoenix Embosser on my Mac
Dear List, Recently, I've tried to use an Enabling Phoenix embosser with my Macbook which is equipped with fusion version 5 and Windows 7 64 bit. I have the printer settings set to generic text but Windows doesn't recognize the embosser when I try to emboss. I'm using Duxbury 11.1 as my braille translator. Has anyone had success embossing with Fusion and Windows 7 off a Mac? Do you know if I could be missing something here? I tried embossing with a friend's Windows laptop and it worked, but with my Macbook I have no success? Can anyone think of a work around? Thank you for your time and energy. all best, Ibraheem -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Safari Interaction Issue in Mavericks
Hey Brian, I've noticed the same issue, accept my VO remains on the previous page. It doesn't jump to the tool bar. I have the setting set to have it jump into the new loaded page as well. I for some reason cannot open up hyperlinks in Apple mail either. If I right click on them, I get three options I believe. Copy link, open behind mail and open I think. The only one which seems to work is the copy feature which I then paste the link into an address field. Sometimes however, I don't even have the option of handling the link when I right click a hyper link. This extreme case where there's a lack of opening and copying options occurs in all my NY Times articles. Maybe these are two issues separate from each other. Just thought I'd chime in with you.

Re: Reading Bookshare's XML
Hey, That is so interesting. I wonder if I download the books from my mountain lion machine and transfer them onto my Mavericks machine if they'll work. All the books that work now on my Mavericks machine were downloaded a couple years ago off of a snow leopard machine. If my idea doesn't work, I'm dreading the thought of carrying both machines to school. Anyway, thank you so very much for your lead. I'll test out my idea and let you know if it works.

Copy and Paste
Dear List, Recently, I've tried copying text off a web page and have had little success. I've never had this problem before, on an older mac running Mavericks. Now, I'm using a newer machine but still running Mavericks and can't seem to accomplish task. Below is the steps I've tried. 1. Interact with text on web page with VO, Shift, Down arrow. 2. VO + enter to begin selecting text. 3. VO + Right Arrow till end of desired text. 4. VO + Enter to stop selecting text. 5. Command C to copy. 6. Command V into a word processor to paste. Am I doing something wrong here? Also, I'm using group navigation mode with VO. Curious to know how to copy multiple paragraphs on a web page as well. Meaning parts of an essay which are separated in group navigation mode so it requires you stop interacting with the first paragraph and then VO right arrow to the next paragraph and then interact with the second paragraph. Thanks for any tips. Best, I -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Copy and Paste
Dear Isaac, Thank you for writing back. First, though not a huge issue at this problem, when turning quicknav on, and spinning through my roter, I don't have a paragraph setting. I set it to words. Second, I followed your steps and when I'm ready to copy by pressing command C. I hear the short high pitch sound indicating that whatever I tried to do failed. I tried your steps on a different page, this time a random Wikipedia article and didn't receive the high pitch sign of error. Instead, VO pronounced the phrase "copy" and when I went to paste the chunk of Wikipedia article into a document, my clipboard was empty. I tried a Wikipedia article in case there was some form of restriction on the original page I'm trying to copy from. Don't see why there would be as its a write up on exercise descriptions.

Re: Copy and Paste
Sorry, I can't find a paragraph option to add to roter. Here's what I did. In VO utility, I went to the web category. Inside there, I selected the web roter tab. In the table of options, I don't see anything that says paragraph for me to check. Any thoughts? Also, shouldn't it be able to work with quick nag set to read words? Thanks so much for your thoughts.

Accessing EDX Courses
Dear List, I hope you’re all well. Recently I’ve entertained the opportunity of enrolling in EDX courses and have found it quite challenging to activate links under the courseware section. I can tab through the webpage, having VoiceOver read to me the links, but when I attempt to activate the links by pressing either space or VO + space, its as though VoiceOver loses its focus on the link, and the high pitch chime indicating one is trying to click on something that isn’t there graces my ears. I can’t seem to use the VO + arrow keys, the links list, or the VO find command to navigate to the links. And when I can get VO to read the links by tabbing through, I can’t activate them. I even tried to click with the VO clicking short keys and by using the actual track pad. If anyone’s had success, I’d be super excited to hear your work around. Thanks in advance and enjoy your summer! Best, Ibraheem -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Working with Spreadsheets
Hi all, Does anyone have any advice to how I can work with spreadsheets on a mac? I am working with a group which has a spreadsheet shared through googledocs and I'm using voiceover with safari to view the doc. I'm unsure though how to edit the cells within the spreadsheet as it displays in safari. Is there a way to download the xl file and work with it within another application? I have Iworks 9 Numbers installed, and am using Snow Leopard. (I know, I'm technologically old school at this point). Also if anyone has any notes on how to work with spreadsheets using VO, e.g list of keyboard commands, I would deeply appreciate it. If you recommend another app aside from Numbers, I am open to exploration. this is my first time working with a spreadsheet so all suggestions are invaluable. Thanks so much and I'm excited to hear back from the group. Warmly, Ibraheem -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Working with Spreadsheets
Hey Tim, Thanks for the lead. I just setup my google drive. I'm now trying to figure out how to move the google doc which I have opened in Safari to the Google drive. How do I move the google doc into my drive? You're also right about the file menu within the Google doc in safari. I've explored the page thoroughly and VO can't seem to find a file menu in the google doc. If I can figure out how to move the google doc to my google drive, then I'll avoid Google Chrome. If not, then I'll tackle Chrome. Thanks for your help.

Re: How to create a disc partition on my MBP for trying out Mavericks?
Hey, I used Super duper to upgrade. You don’t have to pay for the feature you’ll be using in the app and its super accessible to use. First, download super duper. You can run a search for it on Google. Second, after you install and launch Super Duper, you’ll see that the application contains two drop down menus. In the first drop down menu, you’ll want to select your current drive, (E.g Mac hd). In the second drop down menu, you’ll want to choose the last option which says something along the lines of "disk image". A dialog box should appear which will prompt you to find your mac os extended journaled formatted hard drive to store the image on to. Be sure the destination drive is formatted to mac OS Extended journaled. I believe you can use disk utility to format your external hard drive. After everything is set, you can check the description of the task you’re about to run by pressing VO + arrow keys. It should say that you’ll be creating an image of Mac HD onto the destination drive. Press the copy button and all should work. It is important that you choose the create disk image option in the second pop up menu, (which you can then find your destination drive through the dialog box which comes afterwards.) After the image is safely created and copied on to your external hard drive, you can then search the app store for os 10.9 and install it on to your computer. If anything should go wrong with the new OS, you can reinstall your computer to look like it did when you created the disk image. Hope that helps.

To my understanding, there’s suppose to be a purple highlight on any changes made to the document. As I’m in pages, I noticed the view file pop up which contains an option to view markups or view markups and deletions. I chose to view markups. I know that in order to check text attributes we press VO + T. However, this only works for text which VO is focused on. Is there a way to have VO jump to the next change in text attributes? I'm dreading the thought of having to check line by line with the vo + t command. Thanks! Ibraheem -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Using Preview
Hi all, Is there a way to read a PDF with the single page view while having the ability to move forward one page at a time? I use to be able to do this with SL with no problem, but I can’t wrap my head around why its not working for me on Mavericks. I went to the view menu, set it to single page. Then when I interact with the PDF’s text, then press VO + down arrow to read line by line, Vø seems to read the page and everything beyond it. Before, I use to get the “you just crashed into a wall sound” once I made it to the bottom of the page, now it just jumps to the next page like one huge scroll. Also, I use to press Fn + down arrow to move to the next page, but for some reason nothing seems to happen when I press this command. I hear VO say “down” but the page remains the same. Am I missing something here? Thanks! Ibraheem -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Working with Spreadsheets
Hi, By any chance, is there a way to have my google Drive show up in the Extra’s menu? I’m still exploring Numbers. I’ve been able to retrieve the xl sheet off Safari, but it required sighted assistance. I think with Mavericks I’ll have a easier time using Google Drive.

Re: Using Preview
Hey, Thanks for the tip. I realized why I was getting confused. When I’m no longer interacting wight he text and I hit page down the first time, it jumps to the first page of the entire PDF, then when I hit page down the second time, it jumps to the next page from the one I was previously reading. Basically, I have to hit FN + down arrow twice to move over a single page. This stinks LOL. I didn’t know that it doesn’t save where you were last reading in single page view. I’ll be sure to make note of the page I left off at for future reference. Thanks a lot!

Surveys to Increase Accessibility at Cultural Institutions
Dear List, I am working on a project geared towards producing access technology for cultural institutions. A major part of this project is to gather information from users of access technology about their experiences in cultural institutions and request their input on how we can use technology to better enhance tours. Everyone’s input is valued and I am sure everyone has their own tech preferences. Although tech requests may vary, I would deeply appreciate your participation in taking my surveys. If you're willing to contribute to this project, please reply to this thread. Your thoughts on how cultural institutions can use technology to make better accommodations are important. Thank you!

Adjusting Font
Hi All, I’ve been trying to adjust the font in both Bean and Pages. I highlight the text, press command T and tab till I hear the edit field for the font size. I fill in the font size I want, but don’t know how to execute the process. There isn’t an apply button and pressing enter doesn’t seem to do anything. The dialog box remains open after pressing enter. Pressing escape jumps me back into the document without any font changes. am I missing something here?

VO Not REcognizing Arabic
Dear list, I’m unsure how many of yawl are familiar with arabic, but the solution may apply to any foreign language that uses non Latin alphabets. I have a PDF file with both english and what’s suppose to be arabic writing. VO reads the english fine, but it reads the arabic writing as bazaar combinations of english letters and symbols. The symbols are greek, and Chinese I think… Any who, its any assortment of symbols Alex can recognize. I had a sighted friend confirm that the writing is actually in arabic. I also have the arabic voice Tarik downloaded in the VO utility under speech. I was hoping that the arabic voice would take over and read the arabic portions of the PDF and Alex would read the english portions. You know, something like how the iPhone does with recognizable foreign languages. Any thoughts?

Re: VO Not REcognizing Arabic
Hey, I just tried setting Tarik to my default voice. Tariq can’t read the english, and he reads what’s suppose to be the Arabic the same way Alex did, except with a thick Arabic accent LOL. No fix. Could there be an issue in the composition of the PDF? Why would it appear visually as clear Arabic but the actual text is a strange combination of non Arabic letters and symbols… Best, Ibraheem On Jan 21, 2014, at 1:41 PM, Cheryl Homiak wrote: > I'm pretty sure you are going to have to switch to the Arabic voice to get > the Arabic but I could be wrong. > > -- > Cheryl > > I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. > I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper > thrown in the trash! > Then God gave me a new heart and life: > His joy for my despairing tears! > And now, every day: > "This I call to mind, > and therefore I have hope: > The steadfast love of the Lord > never ceases; > his mercies never come to an end; > they are new every morning; > great is your faithfulness." > (Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV) > > > > > > On Jan 21, 2014, at 12:40 PM, Ibraheem Fakir wrote: > >> Dear list, >> >> I’m unsure how many of yawl are familiar with arabic, but the solution may >> apply to any foreign language that uses non Latin alphabets. >> >> I have a PDF file with both english and what’s suppose to be arabic writing. >> VO reads the english fine, but it reads the arabic writing as bazaar >> combinations of english letters and symbols.

Re: VO Not REcognizing Arabic
Since switching voices doesn’t fix the problem, is there a way for me to run the PDF through a multilingual OCR? Does such an OCR even exist? Would an OCR even do anything if the arabic words are already written in these jumbled characters and are not represented as an image?

Writing and Reading Mathematics with VO
Dear List, Hope you're all well. Does anybody have work arounds for writing math and reading it back with VO? Is there a font that's accessible to VO? I'm creating math worksheets for students to complete for homework, but not sure how to write it in an accessible manner. In my days of studying math, I use to spell things out with words E.G. square root 9 + square root of 9. Perhaps there's since been progress from my days in noting mathematics.

Re: Reading Bookshare's XML
Dear Christine, Hope you're well. I remember having this conversation with you earlier this year. Since then, I've figured out a work around to open Bookshare files in Mavericks. After you download the daisy file from Bookshare, open up the folder you downloaded and search for the file with the xml extension. Rename the extension to html. You'll then be able to open and read the book in Safari with VO. Happy reading.

Mixing songs for Party Playlist
Hi folks, Are there any accessible ways to mix songs of a playlist to produce one uninterrupted flow of music? This is for a low-key party, so nothing over the top is required. We’re just looking to avoid those awkward time gaps between song endings and beginnings. In fact, we have the audio files loaded into a play list in iTunes right now and if theres a way to mix the playlist in advance to create one long audio file which we could play at the event, that works too. I’d imagine this avoids the need for living mixing which is advantageous in this situation. Not sure what options exist out there. Thank you for all your help and insight.

Voiceover Rotor to adjust speed and language
Hi list, Hope all are well. I recall in previous builds of OSX I could easily adjust Voiceover's speed, pitch, volume and even switch VO voices from the rotor. The key combination, control + option + command + right or left arrows use to do the trick. Then I would use control + option + command + up or down arrows to make my adjustments after navigating to the category of interest. Is there a way to quickly do something like this in High Sierra? When I press the before mentioned key combination in Finder, I get the options for navigation, characters, and words. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you for your ideas.

Re: In the market for a new laptop- your advice
Hey Donna, Thankfully, I have a windows copy of Duxbury available. I recall in the past trying to emboss from a virtual machine using duxbury and running into issues with my mac not being able to detect the embosser. The only fix was to install windows on a bootcamp partition rather than a virtual machine which worked well. Wondering if that bug was fixed and whether one can now emboss out of the virtual machine.

Re: In the market for a new laptop- your advice
Hey Simon, thanks for the suggestion. I’ll look into the refurbished models. Are there any specs I should strongly consider when trying to find the best machine to accomplish what I need with a virtual machine and bootcamp? I’m a little out of touch with tech specs and any advice you have on this is deeply appreciated. Ideas like which processes or how much ram is ideal for a smooth experience is what I’m looking to know more about.

Re: In the market for a new laptop- your advice
The connection method was USB. I recall the issue being in the setup of the embosser. In order to use the embosser, one has to setup an imaginary printer first and then somehow trick the computer to print to the embosser by going through this imaginary printer setup. I’m definitely distorting all the details here- It was so long ago, I don’t recollect the exact details but I know it was somewhere along this line. And I also know for a fact that on my bootcamp partition the process would work just fine. Sorry for the inexact description. Thanks for all your input though.

Re: Using dictionary.app with voiceover
Hey Andrew, I’ve had the same issue. The workaround that I found is to type the word omitting the last letter of the word, and then scroll into it in the search table, and then jumping to the web area and you should find the definition. It’s crucial that you do not type the word and it’s entirety for this to work.

Every time my screen locks after a period of idleness or I put my computer to sleep and I return to unlock my screen or awaken my computer, the screen returns to a setting of full brightness. I always keep my screen’s brightness at 0%. I do not turn on the screen curtain feature as I never had to with my previous machine. I simply kept my display’s brightness at 0% all the time so didn’t really see the point for screen curtain. Do I have to use screen curtain now so that my computer screen remains turned off when waking my computer up from sleep? Is there a fix to keep the brightness set to 0% and not to restore when unlocking my screen? Thanks so much!

Talking Dashboard
Hey List, A while back, I remember coming across a talking dashboard script on this group. It allowed me to quickly find out battery status, wifi status, disc storage, and probably a couple other things form a single key stroke. If anyone has information on where I can get those files to setup on my new Mac, I’d super appreciate it. Thanks!

Quickly Switch between Group and Dom Navigation?
Hey list, Is there a quick way to switch between the two navigation modes on the fly?

Strategy for reading youtube live stream comments
Hi list, Recently subscribed to a class taught using youtube live stream and having a difficult time trying to quickly read comments coming into the stream and contribute my own comments. Is there a way to set this up so that Voiceover can be prompted to read the latest comment? There are hundreds of comments coming in really quickly and having a way to navigate the live conversation would make participation far more meaningful. Thank you so much!

Accessible Stock Trading Platform
Hey List, Hope you’re well. Wondering if anyone has had any accessibility success with stock trading platforms such as Think or Swim? Looking for an accessible platform to conduct option trades. I’ve downloaded the Think or Swim app on my IOS device but find that not all the buttons are labeled. Wondering if the desktop platform is any different. Thanks!

Re: Accessible Stock Trading Platform
Thanks so much for sharing. Have you had any success with the desktop platform for RH? The mobile platform is great, but doesn’t afford me the speed I’d like to execute trades.

Optimizing Keyboard shortcuts for Vmware and Jaws
Hi group, I suspect this topic is discussed tirelessly here. I just got setup VMware Fusion and downloaded my copy of Jaws 2020. I’m now at a loss with configuring my keyboard so that it makes sense. I’m unsure what the Windows key is suppose to be or what the Jaws key is either. I’ve got my setup on a 2018 MacBook Air. Any help and suggestions to roadmap my keyboard is deeply appreciated.
