A question about iTunes syncing
Hi there folks. I am about to download and install ML here on my macbook, but I had a question. If an iTunes library gets erased, but you still have all the stuff on your iPod, is it possible to make it so that the stuff goes from your iPod to the iTunes library instead of the other way round? Sure I can backup, that's no problem. Just wondered if it could be done. Cheers. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: anyone ever used winonx?

Installing Drivers after installing via Bootcamp?
Hi folks, yesterday I decided to install Windows on my Mac Mini. The installation itself went smoothly, but my screen will not display when i boot into Windows. I assume this has to do with my screen drivers. Anyway, that's not the issue. Seeing as I don't have a screen that a sighted person can read, how do I install the Windows drivers on to my Mac? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Installing Drivers after installing via Bootcamp?
Yeah I did, but how would one be able to interact with that notifications if they were blind? I have no working screen in windows for whatever reason, seeing as even the most basic screen opperations can be done without drivers. Therefore, I can't get anyone to read it to me.

Re: [Bulk] Re: Will It Be Easy To Install Lion?
Not trying to screw round with anyones hopes here, but I heighly doubt it will be out today. I'm thinking next Thursday (14th July) I could be wrong though, at which point you can all point, laugh and all that. If you have one on hand, I would personally burn it to a blank external HD, and do it that way. Reading and writing marginally faster. However, you could also burn it to a DVD in case you should lose your HD or otherwise. Voiceover should function as previously in earlier installs, I see no current reason why it shouldn't. Make sure that you have your favourite beverage on hand, and go! :) On 7/8/11, Dan wrote: > Hello, > You can get CCC from > > http://www.bombich.com/ > > Super Duper at > > http://www.shirt-pocket.com/ > > HTH! > Dan > > On Jul 7, 2011, at 11:27 PM, Kevin Gibbs wrote: > >> I do have a few questions: >> 1.

Re: Porting qwitter to mac?
While I appreciate the work you are doing there Jonothan, I still don't completely see the need for something that doesn't display tweets as you read them, and focus on the blind comunity. I for one refuse to use blindness apps for the most part, because it sort of makes us look stupid. Its almost like saying, "Hey, apparently blind people can't use my twitter app, because there is one little checkbox that isn't where it should be and its not described enough, therefore I need to waste pointless time looking then changing it, just so there can be that perfect kept in a shell zone once more." and I mean really, does anyone really care these days if your tweeting at work? Hey, I know heaps of people that do this, and most people aren't stupid. As long as you get your work done and can have a good tweet, then why not. Hell, apple will probably end up integrating a Twitter client into Mac OS at some stage. Anyway, rant over.

Re: ipad2 or mbpro with lion
Well, you should be able to upgrade to Lion on your existing MBP, maybe? I haven't bothered to check about the 09 ones, seeing as mine was from last year and will work fine.

Exactly. I mean sure it will be quite different in Apple, but I'm not always full of excitement everytime something like that happens. I mean hey, look at Windows Vista!

Re: [M-A] Lion being released tomorrow july 20th
Well in all fairness, the site is what it is, roomers. As for what time, its here when its here. For us Australian's, that will be tomorrow, July 21st. I might do some sort of podcast, but someone will probably beat me to it. I won't be able to try it until at least later tomorrow afternoon, unless I be a rather sad person and get up early. However, being in pecific time and all that, I can tell you now that it would be almost pointless. Besides, what's a few more hours, really? It will be nice when all this crap about release dates and such are over. If you look at what Apple seem to have relayed to the public in regards to June/July, you'd probably think it makes a lot of sense to be out round this time. I never even try and get excited about Mac roomers info. Also, a lot, and I mean a lot! Of info was given out this time round as aposed to all the previous times. Anyway, that's that.

Once I learn it a bit, I'll probably do a general overview, opinions and thoughts. From what I'm hearing, it sounds great, but something that will be a bit of a cakewalk.

Hi. To be perfectly honest with you, I can't say I'm too excited about these voices. I can honestly say that I've never been that fond of them, even on windows. Maybe its just me.

Re: Mac mini
Not that I know of. I don't think anyones ever sure why it happens, but yeah. DVI or VGA should work fine. I know VGA does for a fact, because I'm boring and I'm not gonna change until I have to. You'll just have to have the screen plugged in. However, if anyone finds a work around, then please by all means do so.

Re: Voice over lag and other lion issues
Alright alright, here's my rant/chat about Lion. I have my mixed opinions on the OS as it were, and mainly Voiceover. I do to some extent, feel that Apple didn't give as much thought to Voiceover, or didn't focus more on important areas and major bugs and correcting them. For someone like me, Item Chooser is a really big deal, as I frequent lots of web pages with thousands of items. I really only started to use the Mac the day SL came out, and I certainly don't remember seeing this many issues. I've had some pretty major things like VO refusing to go into menus, and sometimes even the dock. Turning VO off then on again still didn't cut it. The only thing that resolved the issue was to restart the OS itself. iTunes... Well, I'll rest that one a bit, due to issues really starting to hit in 10.3. mail: Well, for the most part its ok, and the viewing options can be changed really, so that's a user descression thing, and something I haven't played with enough to go striking that app down with opinions. Safari in general: Again, not sure. I'm not sure if I really like the downloads window on the toolbar, seeing as it seems to screw round with Voiceover focus when I move it back to the page. However, that's probably a bug that Apple overlooked. I do find it kind of irratating that Apple feel the need to stress new Voices as a feature, when there are other more broken things they could have spent time fixing, or at least somewhat considering. There is no way that I'm expecting the thing to be free of bugs, simply because that's just not the nature of new stuff. Take for example, a new kind of chocolate. You don't know how it will taste, so you are a bit unsure. You take a bight, and you don't think you like it as much as the old brand. However, you stick with it. After a certain time, you develop a fondness for it, and leave the old one dead in its tracks. End conclusion is, give the OS an update or two, then see how it goes. If much of this stuff is still not addressed, then its time to get worryed. P.S I can't say I'm all that impressed either with the Scansoft voices, especially the compact ones. What's the point of them anyway? I dunno why Apple didn't just make a bunch of new Voices of their own, and just leave that to iOS. Maybe its just me, but I think Realspeak is a rather over-used synth in general, and sounds very over priced. If Apple were to use something like Ivona instead, then I would be more than happy. Once an update comes ouut, I might post back another review.

Re: facebook chat
Hi. I myself find facebook chat to be very accessible. Just go to your facebook page, and then click on the link that says that (There will probably be a number after the word chat) Then just keep scrolling down, and you should find a list of your friends who are online. Sometimes they will read out the code of the display pictures that your friends have on the facebook page before they actually read out the name of the person you are trying to access. Give it time though, and you could use it. Justclick on the person's name who you wish to start a chat with, and you will be placed in to an edit box. Just type what you want to say and press enter. Once you hear a popping sound, it means someone has sent you a message. just go to the top of the page, and it will have all the links to the chats you have open. Click on the person name, and you will be placed in to the edit box. Have a look round nere by, and it should display heading with the dylog of the conversation. HTH, James.

Re: Adium has new window
Hi. Once in Adium, hit VO f2 twice, and it will bring up a menu of windows. Then just arow down, and press enter on the window you want. It could be a chat message, or Growl could be sending in pop up notifications. If the window says something about a system alert, then Growl is probably set to bounce and pop up the notification window whenever an event has occured. HTH, James.

Bringing back an iTunes library
Hi all. I deleted my iTunes library by mistake. All my library is still on my iPod. If possible I would like to avoid recreating my library, there is probably over 30 gigs of stuff in there, so I really can't be bothered going through all that again if I don't have to. So is there any way to get your library off an ipod and sync it back in to itunes so nothing gets deleted?

Different voices for iPhone?
Hi all.

Re: iMac VS Mac Mini
I would personally say a Mac Mini. I Don't really see much difference between the Mac Mini's processor and the iMac. Another thing to note is that for most things, a mac is not really that processor intensive at all. I recently bought a macbook pro, but it was the 2.4 instead of the 2.6. My sister has the 2.6, and I've noticed really no difference. The fact that apple create both the hardware and softwear also helps a bunch. Hth, James.

The iMac offers more options in terms of processing power and hard drive space. Of course you do get the monitor included. My advice is this: 1. Determine what you need. In other words, what are you going to use the machine for and plan this out over at least three years as a minimum. UNless your one of those folks who upgrade frequently, you want to get a machine that will grow with you and I tend to keep machines forever, but if I consider upgrading, it usually is on a three to five year cycle depending on what my family needs. :) Yeah, I'm really nice, I give them the well tested machines. :) 2. Price out more than one option. For example, if you are leaning toward a MIni, but you want more drive space and ram, do the math and see if it would make more sense to go with an iMac versus a Mini.

Re: iMac VS Mac Mini
Oh ok. Thanks for the correction there, because I was only basing my experiences I've had with playing around with an iMac. But then it makes more sense, because the iMac is really the power unit. I can't say I've done much audio editing on the Mac as yet, but I'm looking in to it.

A question regarding itunes store
Hi all. Is there a way to set the bitrate of files that you buy from the iTunes store? Not only that, but the format. I'm also wanting to know this in regards to ripping CD's as well, because I have a bunch of CD's that I want to rip. I haven't had much of a chance to play with all that sorta stuff in iTunes all that much yet, seeing as I've been busy with stuf. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Re: skype on the mac
Hey. I'll try and answer your questions as best I can. 1. By default, skype will automatically play a sound to indicate that a contact is on line. 2. Adium won't impact in any way on skype, if that's what you mean. 3. When it comes up with the show weppage, cancel and open button, click the open button, and that message will not appear again, unless you reinstall skype. 4. As for when to contact someone. Try sending them a message, or giving them a call. Unless you t-up a time with them at some stage earlier in the day to have a chat or something. HTH, James.

Adium and Facebook chat
Hi guys. I'm having a slight problem with Adium and Facebook chat. When I sign on to msn, all works fine. However, if I am signed in to both, it will only show my msn contacts, and will not hsow any of my facebook ones. The only time it will show a facebook contact, is if they start a conversation with me first.

A dropbox issue.
Hi guys. I'm having a slight drop box issue on my MBP, which I've never had on my Mac Mini. I just downloaded and installed the latest version of dropbox, and all went well. Once I tried to open dropbox, almost nothing happened. When I say almost, I mean almost. Dropbox opened, but voiceover treated it as if there were no windows, and nothing I did worked. I tried to click the mouse, but voiceover said it couldn't bring the mouse into that area. I turned cursor tracking off, but it still didn't do anything. It was as if voiceover was focused on 2 things at once. Both the partly opened dropbox, and finder. The only thing I could do, was press enter.

iPod and ogg?
Hi guys. I've been wondering this for a couple of years now, but I've never found anything yet. iPods don't support the Ogg format, and apple don't look like they will. I could be wrong, but I'm not sure. Anyway, onto my question. Is there some sort of plugin that will make my iPod touch play ogg files? I know there is an iTunes plugin for ogg, but I've never installed it. I've got a perfect media player that plays things in ogg. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Format conversion software?
Hi guys. I have some stuff to convert from avi to an audio format, most probably ogg. I've tried to use switch, but it doesn't seem to do any good. I've tried converting them about 4 times, but each file seems to convert themselves in to files that are about the sise of around 33 KB. Sometimes a file will be bigger than that, but not much bigger. The only one that seemed to reach a decent sise was a file that converted to about 34 meg. When I played it back though, it sounded horrible. Squeaky, clippy, choppy, you name it, it was there. Is there an alternative option to this that is accessible?

Wow. I love this. I just checked out the App store just now, and bought GB 6. It was so much nicer.

A General question on Soundfonts in Garage band
Hi once again. I've been curious about how Soundfonts work on the Mac as a posed to windows? Do soundfonts play through the Mac soundcard, or do you have to have an external audio interface connected that supports them. Or, do the sound come through a midi keyboard assuming it will load soundfonts? Take care, James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: soon to be mac user
Hi there. There is indeed a couple of chat clients out there. One of them is called adium, while another one is called iChat and comes with your Mac. If you were to be using something like MSN, then Adium is perfect, seeing as iChat does not support msn.

Re: VLC app removed from App Store
Its people like this that frustrate me greatly. I'd be quite interested to know just how much of Nokia's stuff really conforms to the GPL, seeing as they don't do an aprooval check, as far as I know. I also think that Nokia phones, especially the new ones, are the most unstable piece of shit. Or at least, the new ones anyway. I can't say I liked VLC for iPhone much, but I am still completely against this. Anyways, that's just me and my thoughts.

Jailbreaking and some solutions?
Hi guys. Recently I Jailbroke my phone, but have run into an issue. I tried to start Cidia so I could go grab an app, but Voiceover doesn't seem to like it. Suggestions have been made to get Icy, but everything seems to point in the direction of downloading it with Cidia. Besides, Icy isn't being made anymore either, so I've heard. Can anyone suggest what I should do? If worse comes to worsed, I'll grab some sighted asistance. But still, something that was made by the apple Dev team really should be accessible. Anyway, thanks guys. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com.

A LIttle Issue with Mail
Hi guys. A while ago I setup mail on my Mac. I seem to notice this issue. If I delete all my messages out of one folder, quite often they'll come back when I move the voiceover focus to another mailbox. An example of this is: I have a folder for all the Mac Visionaries emails. Sometimes. Say I wanted to select all and then delete. So, I do this, and al the messages in there are deleted. Now, lets say the amount of messages in the mailbox was 230 Voiceover then reports that 230 items have been selected, and then I push delete, and the mailbox shows up as empty. However, say I go to my inbox folder to see what's there and come back, I will find that all the 230 message I deleted before in Mac Visionaries are all still there. This seems to be happening with a few of my mailboxes. Does anyone know how I can fix this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

DVD Ripping software on the Mac?
Hi guys. Does anyone know of a good DVD ripper for the Mac? I've tried handbreak, but it all seems to put it in to 1 big chunky file. I have a TV series I'd like to rip, and I'd like each EP to be in a seperate file -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Accessibility of Cidia?
Hi guys. I recently jailbroke my phone on my Mac. I was told a while ago that Cidia was apparently now accessible. However, I found this to not be the case, at least with me. Is there some way I can install jailbroken aps on my Mac? or is there an update to Cidia? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Accessibility of Cidia?
Yeah, that's how I installed it as well. I was more meaning how could I install other Jailbroken apps on my phone without using Cidia? I know there is a way on windows, but I'd like to avoid that if possible. On 09/03/2011, at 10:49 AM, Sarah Alawami wrote: > Dunno if there is an update.

Re: Accessibility of Cidia?
Thanks guys. Yeah Rose, I saw your article on the subject, but I just assumed that Cyder 2 was only for windows. Never the less, I'll give it a look.

Moving the partition slider in bootcamp using VO?
Hi guys. The subject pretty much says it all. I decided last night to install Windows on to Mac so I could use things like VST. However, when it got to the point of partitioning my Hard Drive, I found that I could not in any way shape or form move the slider with VO. I can get sighted assistance if needed, but I'd like to think there is some sorta work around for this. :) If anyone knows how to do this, any help would be greatly appreciated.
