Re: Shark Clean iOS App
Hi there, I also have a Shark robot, and can confirm exactly what you describe here. App is a hot mess right now. Shall we try networking on this issue?

iCloud observation, and a comparative question.
Evening everyone, i've managed to gather updates across all devices, Mac and iDevides as far as additional apps go, but am not seeing the same behavior when/if an app has an update. In other words, updating is still a manual process. Anyone else seeing this? Other than that, I'm loving this service so far, and cannot wait until it truly earns its legs a few months from now.

Visual input concerning screen brightness.
Hi again all, For those of you who choose to dial your brightness down on your Mac, but who choose to have it bright enough to be able to be adequately viewed, should you need it via sighted assistance, I'm told it's still perfectly fine at 10 to 15% brightness.

Re: conversations in new mail
You don't, and can in fact merely tab over once you're sitting on the thread you want to view. This will get you to a list of messages within that thread, from where you can either use left and right, or up and down arrows to navigate through them. To return to the threads list, either use VO left arrow, or shift tab. For the record, to return to the list of inboxes, stop interacting with the message list, (for me, this requires two presses of VO shift up arrow), and VO left twice to return to your list of mailboxes.

Re: Adding voices
Open the VO utility, find the Speech tab and tab over to voices popup. VO space on that, and arrow down to custom… select that, and you're presented with a list of all voices available, including those from Apple proper. Arrow up and down through the list, until you locate one you like, tab over to play, and you can hear samples of said voices. Between the list of voices, and their subsequent play buttons are checkboxes for each. Check all the voices you want to use, tab to the oK button, and from there, software update comes up, and it behaves like ago other install. I downloaded 7 of them last night via this method, was able to do them simultaneously, and it was easily the fastest nearly 3 gigs I've ever downloaded. :) I Hope that helps you On Jul 23, 2011, at 10:56 AM, Kaare Dehard wrote: > Okay, where in the voiceover utility do you go to get the additional voices? > > -- > 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. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Mac arrives today.
Evening all, There is much to report, but the long and short of it is that setup went beautifully, and sans even the smallest glitch. Mac is connected to my network, Safari is behaving beautifully, I've updated approx 9 software titles which needed it via software updater, imported ringtones and Apps into iTunes, configured all three of my mail accounts, and am about to install Skype. Commanders trackpad and keyboard are both configured, and overall, a fabulous experience has been had. My stupid questions are as follows: Pairing my BT keyboard is giving me problems. The Mac sees it perfectly, but from that point, the pairing is unsuccessful. I'm sure it's me, since this was one of the last things I attempted, and am beginning to flag a bit, but, thoughts? Also, am still slightly confused as to how one should best go about browsing for folders for importing to iTunes/the Mac's file structure. Barring all of that, this is a beautiful machine, and I'm positively in love. :) On May 2, 2011, at 10:37 AM, Dickson Tan wrote: > Hi > > Congratulations on the arrival of your new mac.

Re: the installation, and uninstallation of applications to the Mac
You are all fantastic, I cannot express that enough, and indeed, those instructions were absolute perfection. :) Spent today playing with Safari a little more, downloaded and installed Skype, and have played around the app store a bit. Thanks for your patient instruction; this is what makes the Mac community the amazing place that it is to be IMHO. Thanks again guys, and as always, y'all rock unabashedly.

Re: Apple Mail and gmail
This is perhaps a stupid question, but my theory is to begin from the beginning, so here goes. :) Did you tell gmail to use pop3 from the site itself?

Skype for the millionth time.
I'm truly sorry guys for bringing this to the forefront yet again. In all my preparation for the Mac, reading over the afore mentioned discussion matter on this app is the one thing I didn't do. Skype is the only program thus far I'm having issue with, which I'm hoping only means I'm a novice, rather than being a direct reflection as to my density. :) Will Skype read in-coming alerts, sign-in of contacts, in-coming chat content, etc? Once in a call, how does one either end said call, or return to the contacts list/any other area of the App? Any other pointers/things I need to configure? Is Growl configurable for any of the above spoken alerts? If so, how does one go about that?

Re: Say Goodbye to Skype, Microsoft just bought it for 8.5 billion
I'm hoping not, but prior experience tells quite a different story. The latest update to the WLM App touted VO support as one of its strengths, so perhaps this is a step in some direction other than what has been over the years?

Other media players than iTunes.
Subject covers it. Are there others, if so, what are they?

Audio extraction from CD via the Mac.
Afternoon all, What do you generally use to rip discs? I'd asked earlier-on regarding audiobooks, however, at that point, had nothing to work with. Now there is a massive up-coming project, and so I'm curious as to what works best for all of you. My aim is to convert the discs into .m4b files in the end, so any/all suggestions as to getting there are very welcome.

Re: New text-to-speech voices in Lion
Personally, I'm sort of excited about the Irish and Scottish voices on offer...Not voices you see routinely, so for that reason, I'm intrigued. Can't recall their names at the moment however. On another note, how do all of you prefer your voices? For instance, I know someone who is almost obsessed with all his products consisting of speech output be female. Always seemed a little weird to me, but perhaps it is I who am the odd one, as I don't have a preference either way; so long as the voice is understandable, and of amazing quality. Reply to this latter note off-list if it's too far OT, just curious to know whether or not that's a common standard when choosing a synthetic voice.
