Setting Sound Output for Log in Screen
Hi, How can I set sound output for internal speaker during log in screen? I have more than one output device, internal speaker, sound flower, and external sound card. Sometimes, VoiceOver switches to a different sound output during log in screen. I can't hear anything especially when it switches to sound flower. Once I'm logged in, it switches back to the sound output that I set in the user account though.

Re: Setting Sound Output for Log in Screen
HI Ricardo, I wish it worked that way for Snow Leopard too. Even if I set the sound output to the internal built in speaker and reboot, it goes back to a different output during log in. I wonder if there's a way to set it in terminal or something. JL On 4/24/2012 5:04 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: Hi, in my experience, you can't.

Selecting Destination For restoring on Disk Utility
Hi, I'm trying to restore a partition from a CCC image using disk utility. When I go to the restore tab, I can click the image button and select the image file created by CCC, but I cannot drag the partition to a destination field. I wiped out my entire internal hard drive in order to partition my internal hard drive for my need and start from scratch, so I cannot use CCC to restore. Only option I have is to restore using the disk utility from the lion installation flash drive. However, drag and drop function on lion Voice Over doesn't work on this case. It says something like drag and drop failed. I also tried the old drag and drop method with vo+shift+space, but it doesn't work either. I searched the archive, and someone mentioned that there is a podcast on this topic. However, I couldn't find any link for the podcast. I'd really appreciate if someone can either explain how I can select destination for restoring on disk utility or send me the link to the podcast.

XCode Busy
Hi, I'm trying to give XCode a try again. I didn't have this problem when I used it with Mountain Lion a couple of years ago. However, Voiceover gets stuck and keeps saying busy. Only way is to quit XCode and rerun. It happens so frequently that it makes it impossible to navigate to different parts of screen. I'm using XCode 6.3.2 on Yosemite 10.10.3. Does anyone have this problem? Is there a workaround for this? Thanks, JL -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Fastest Way to Scan Books?
Hi All, I'm wondering what would be the fastest way for a college student to scan books with accurate OCR? I know there are cameras out there for scanning documents like hover cam and pearl, but I haven't actually used them. I could be wrong, but pearl is only works with Open Book, right? Can someone share their experience, and recommend what to buy? Especially comparison would be very helpful.

Re: Fastest Way to Scan Books?
Thanks Anne for explaining the process. I'll let you know if I go into Vuescan+Abby route.

This is faster than just using FineReader and the images are better so the OCR is more accurate. This does however mean buying two applications to get the job done. If you don't buy a license for VueScan, it leaves a watermark on each scan which can really mess up the OCR. The License for VueScan costs $39 for one year or $79 for life.

Re: Fastest Way to Scan Books?
Thanks everyone for the replies. It looks like camera solution is not accurate enough. The flatbed (if you can't take book apart) and scanner with ADF seem to be the best.

I went out and bought a flat bed scanner; much better results with that. The scanner with Docuscan works great on the Mac too. I just don't have any faith in these camera based approaches. On Sep 25, 2013, at 4:57 AM, erik burggraaf wrote: This solution meets the requirement of being the fastest, but it falls over in a few ways. first, a double sided sheet feeder is an expensive proposition, even though you can probably find a voscan compatible one. If you're in a commercial setting such as a university transcription service you might be able to justify the cost, but for an individual it doesn't really make that much sense. Second, you have to cut the books. The books themselves can be quite expensive. I preferred to double up with my classmates when I was in college. I scanned some one else's book pertimes because the books costed between 70 and 150 dollars a piece. You may want to resell the books and get some of your money back later. Again, if you're a professional transcription service this might be a good bet, but for an individual it's not really the way to go. Third, While there are good tutorials on making the whole voscan/readiris/finereader system work done by knowledgeable people in plain language, the fact of the matter is, setting up the duel software system initially takes a bit of extra overhead. I've never been much tempted myself. $200 to get two pieces of software and merry them together is reasonable enough on cost, but I know that most of my clients are not happy with the idea of two programs to do one job. I like the camera system myself. I'm not a professional transcription service, so the idea of taking half an hour to scan a book that used to take me three hours really doesn't faze me. The camera is portable so I can take it on the road if I want. I can also fold it out of the way to save desk space if I need to. I use an eyepal, because I had access to funding and because I got a corporate discount on it through my access technology company. I haven't had great experiences with it under windows, but on the mac it seems to work really well despite not being designed well at all from a software standpoint. I also have a hovercam T5V. While I mostly use it under windows with k1000, it can also be used with docuscan plus on the mac. Docuscan is cloud based and I'm not very happy with that aspect of it, but I like the hovercam hardware better than the EyePal. It feels sturdier and it's cheeper. Not to mention the docuscan software is actually built for mac as opposed to the jury-rigged eyepal approach. Out of pocket, docuscan and the hovercam are cheeper than the eyepal. If your alternative is an industrial grade double-sided sheet feeding scanner, then docuscan and a hovercam are going to be cheeper than that as well. If you don't mind splicing sets of pages together and you buy a consumer grade single sided sheet feeder, you could get one for a reasonable price. I don't think it would be as fast as a camera, but it would be less maintenance because you wouldn't have to flip pages manually.

ScanSnap, Scanning Solution?
Hi All, Does anyone use ScanSnap? I'm thinking about iX500. How is their software accessible on Mac or Windows? Because they don't support twain, most OCR software like abbyy, kurzwhile, or Openbook can't access the scanner directly. It looks like I have to scan using their software, export into pdf, and import back to OCR software. I tried Hovercam t5v solution. Even though their software was accessible, result is not as good as flat-bed or document scanner. Thanks for help!

Yes, I agree! The developer is awesome, and he's very quick! While back, I asked him to implement function+space as left mouse click because I would need control mouse click or option mouse click.

For me this is a non issue as I almost never use the caps lock key and can use the shift key when needed. The advantage of having the caps lock act as the voice over modifier key is infinitely more important to me. I keep finding ways why this works so well. for example opening a disclosure triangle is now so much easier. I just holde the caps lock key down with my left little finger and tap the \ key with my other little finger. I never take my hands off the home keys.

Hi Chris, thanks so muchfor the detail explanation. After listening to three episodes of VoiceOverOn podcast on iWorks, I think using MS office on VMware Windows with Jaws seems to be the best way until more stable iWorks come out. I can see myself using Pages, but, it seems I need to figure out tons of workaround for Keynote and Numbers. It wil just slow down the work process a lot compared to using MS Office on Windows.

Running Internet Radio on Mac
Hi, Is there any accessible radio app that let me host an internet radio station live on my Mac? I used to broadcast on ShoutCast using EdCast on Windows, but I'm wondering if there's any option on Mac.

Re: Braille Editor
I think iBraille could do it, but it's discontinued now. I think there are quite a few of them on Windows side. There's no hope for Braille editing on Mac?

Voiceover Crashing My Mac
Hi I run OSX 10.115 on iMac 5k 27 inch late 2015. I'm having a problem Voiceover crashing my computer. I use just Alex voice. Screen just goes black and reboots. If someone does the exactly same task without Voiceover, it doesn't happen. For example, adding input files in xcode project > build phases > Run Script. Also it doesn't happens 100% all the time. Looking at /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports, there are bunch of coreaudiod and a couple of kernel files. Inside ~/Library/logs/DiagnosticReports, there are bunch of xcode and voiceover files. Based on the files, it might have to do with sound device, but I just use system built-in output. I never had this problem before. Maybe it's the latest OSX update. It reminds me Windows. I'm not impressed with Apple lately. Does anyone have a problem where Voiceover just stops talking, and the computer reboots?

Re: Voiceover Crashing My Mac
Thanks both for the reply.
I never seen this before either.
It started happening only a few weeks ago, and I can see the early core
audio crash reports go back to June 5. Probably that's when I updated to
the latest OSX.
I guess it's time to go back down.

Re: Voiceover Crashing My Mac
Thanks for the suggestions. I don't think it is a string issue. Voiceover reads fine what goes into the field, and I can't duplicate 100% of the time. I'll downgrade and see what happens.

Voiceover Won't Speak while Fresh Installing Sierra
I created a bootable usb drive, and tried to fresh install Sierra on Macbook Pro 2015. However, the Voiceover wouldn't speak except Voiceover off, and installer launching in the background. I had to get a sited person to help to install. The person described that the voiceover cursor is there, but it just won't speak.
