Re: mac book pro, mac book air, or iPad pro?
Hi. The reason why I'm not committed to iOS full time is the lack of support for third-party voices from Acapela and other dealers. So for me, my next computer will probably be a MacBook Air.

Re: iOS 10 is a total mess
Hi. I haven't read the whole article mainly because I can't open a reader window, but from what I've read, it seems like it's a total whine fest. I mean, has the guy used beta software before? It's called "beta" for a reason. There will be bugs, but who's to say that these bugs will remain in the next beta or even this fall? If you can't stand the bugs, don't install the beta. Plain and simple.

Re: Remapping and/or pressing the applications key in VMware Fusion
Hi Josh. If you have Sharp Keys on your Windows VM, you can remap a key to a different key. For example, for my applications key, I changed the right windows key which is the right command key on the Mac to that key. If you need further help with that, you can give me a call on Skype or Facetime if you use any of those and I can assist you by voice.

Well it depends on whether or not you have the setting for use F1, F2 etc. as standard function keys in the keyboard preference pain of system preferences.

Re: Mac OS warning when in Upper Case
Also I would like to correct something else that Blea had said in regards to a sound effect when you're typing capital letters. Sound effects don't need to be turned on to hear beeps for capital letters. I have sounds turned off and I still get this sound. To choose what happens when you type in capital letters, go to verbosity and select the text tab. The options for the behavior of capital letters are raise the pitch, play a tone, or do nothing. HTH.

Watching Sports Games On The Mac
Hey guys. I'm having a bit of a problem. I've been using a site called stream2watch.com to watch sports on my Mac. Mostly NBA games. Now that they appear to not carry games from that league, I'm having a bit of a problem trying to find a site that will actually stream. Someone gave me a site to listen to those games but when I try to listen to it, the audio doesn't play. Any ideas?

About My Last Post and Tune-In Radio For The Iphone
Hey Guys. In my last post about wanting to know if there was sites I could go to on my Mac to watch NBA Games or listen to them. Well, after writing it, I don't know what hit me, but something told me to check my iPhone because I have an app called Tune In Radio. So anyway, I went into Tune-In Radio, found the sports section, and sure enough the game I wanted to listen was there. This is another reason why I'm beginning to love my iPhone and if you can't find a certain station online, odds are that Tune In Radio will have it and the best part, it's accessible and free. I highly recommend this app. Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

New Version Of Imap Weather Radio Doesn't work for Canada
Hey guys. I just downloaded the new version of Imap Weather Radio for the iPhone. Unfortunately, when I try to set it up, it asks for a US zip code and it won't accept my Canadian postal code. I really like that app and it would be a shame to delete it. Does anyone know the email address I could write to to the developers about this? That really both saddens me and makes me mad that I can't use this app anymore. Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Is the I phone 4s worth it?
Hey guys. I just had to jump into this topic because I have an iPhone 4 and I found an app that almost does what Siri on the iPhone 4S does. The only thing it doesn't do yet, which will be addressed in future updates according to the developer, is write text messages as you dictate them to it and reminders. It's called Voice Ask and it's $2.99 in the app store. The girl who you talk to is named Eve and she has quite the personality. There are a few unlabelled buttons but it's useable.

Anyone know when Infovox Ivox 3 is coming out?
Hey guys. Subject says it all, wondering if anyone heard when Infovox 3 comes out. I really want to get my hands on that Acapela Tracy voice and it seems like it's taking forever for them to release it. I liked her on the PC and I'd like her on the Mac as much.

Re: Games for Mac and MUD Clients and other little questions of new Apple Eater
Hey Volcy. Welcome to the world of Apple and the Mac. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of choices for games on the Mac. The only 2 games on here are Chess and the RS Games Client which can be downloaded at rsgames.org If you like playing online, I suggest giving the RS Games client a try. It contains board games such as Monopoly and Battleship and card games like Blackjack and 1000 Miles. Other than that, there aren't a lot of games for the Mac, but hopefully that'll change when Mountain Lion comes out which will turn the Mac into kinda an IOS device.

Something I just Learned With Skype and Growl
Hey guys. I found out something interesting with this new version of Skype. In the overview section of the notifications preference, rather than have Skype display it's own built-in notifications, now you can configure it to use Growl to display notifications. So what I did was I set it to that preference and went to Growl's preferences. There I chose Skype for the program I wanted to configure. In the application settings, I set the display type to speech. Also, in the notifications tab I set everything to use speech. There's a pop up button where you can choose hat notification you want to edit. Just basically set the display type to speech and you'll be set. The one thing I'm happy about with this method of notifications is that now that growl is set as the notification style, any messages that a person sends to you will now be spoken. This may have been posted, but I thought people should know about this new thing that Skype has given us.

Re: Something I just Learned With Skype and Growl
Hey Elena and all. Sorry I haven't posted any replies about this, I was sick pretty much all day but I'm better. This is odd that you can't get messages to read automatically. Perhaps I could be of more assistance if we made a Skype call to each other and then we can solve this little problem. Also, Mark, Growl uses the main system voice so if you wanted to make changes to the voice, whether you want to change rate and pitch or the person altogether, you would have to go into system prefs and change any preferences there. Finally, I noticed something odd in Skype 5.6. Yes, I do change the notification setting to use Growl, but I find that when I shut down the computer for the day and start it the next, the notification setting reverts back to using the built-in notification setting and then I have to set it back to using Growl again. So Elena, check if that setting does that for you too. But as I said, I'll be willing to help anyone get this Growl stuff going for them. My Skype name is bbstheblindrapper.

Re: Infovox Ivox 3 is finally out!
Hey Ray. Infovox Ivox 3 has a few new English voices. There's an Indian accent English voice, a voice that's supposed to sound like Queen Elizabeth, a voice that's supposed to sound like a hip hop artist, and of course, there's Tracy. However I did notice a bug in this thing right away. When you have Adium speak events and while doing a read all, the voice crashes Voiceover. But either than that, I'm so happy that Infovox Ivox 3 is finally here! Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Speakable Items Interferes With Energy Saver Preferences
Hi. Does anyone use the speakable items speech recognition tool? If so, maybe you can help me. I have my computer to respond to a keyword and sometimes I accidentally say it or the computer says it. Anyway once speakable items is triggered, I notice that it interferes with my energy saver preferences. For example, after it's triggered, my screen doesn't dim at the specific time it's supposed to. As a matter of fact, it doesn't dim at all until I either shut down or restart. Is there a way to fix this?

Re: speech recognition not working for me with vo on
Hey Ioana. If I were you, I wouldn't use the speech recognition. I've found way too many problems with it. On my end, it interfered with my energy saver preferences after it was triggered, meaning my screen wouldn't dim after the specified period of time I had it set at until I restarted, and a friend of mine when she had it on made her Skype all wonky. It muted her microphone somehow so she had to turn it off and now her Skype is back to normal. So you really aren't missing much, although if you wanted your computer to act like Siri on your iPhone somewhat, I'd understand that.

Re: Skype on the Mac made accessible?
Hey guys, gotta get my 2 cents in on this topic. I don't really care about where I land when Skype starts. My concern is conferences. When I posted a thread a few months ago about making a conference, I got an answer that I had to do all this turning cursor tracking off and routing the VO cursor and some other crap that I can't remember. Bottom line is, that is too time consuming and complicated. There's this program in Windows called GW Connect that allows you to make a conference just by pressing enter or whatever key you have to press for that. It would be nice if Skype for the Mac were that easy to make conference calls. BTW, the reason why I don't care where I land in Skype is because I downloaded a plugin for Adium that allows me to see my Skype contacts via Adium. So for those of you that are complaining about not seeing your contact list when you start Skype, perhaps you can try downloading that plugin. The only catch is you have to have Skype open to use it. You don't have to have the window open, the program just have to be running. Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: what Voiceover bugs people want or are hoping will be fixed or squashed in Mountain Lion?
Hey guys. One of the bugs I'd like them to fix is the whole pitch change thing with the Nuance voices. Even though I use the Acapela voices, sometimes I help people with their Macs and they use Samantha or other Nuance voice and it scares the crap out of me when she changes pitch.

Re: what Voiceover bugs people want or are hoping will be fixed or squashed in Mountain Lion?
Boo Eloquence! If I wanted to listen to that stupid robotic voice drone on and on, I'd switch back to PC and install Jaws or Window-Eyes. But I don't want to do that because I'm a Mac user, and I like listening to human-sounding voices. If I had to pick voices to be added to the Mac, I'd pick the Loquendo voices just because they do good inflections with exclamations. And sorry, but I don't think Ivona will ever come to Apple because I'm sure they don't want to follow Apple's speech API.

Suggestions for Voice Answer
Hey sorry about my last post. I was reading the message and I guess the Samnet mail client has a little problem forwarding messages. Here's what they said. Shawn Read Message From: Martijn van der Spek To: 'Shawn Krasniuk' supp...@sparklingapps.com Subject: RE: Suggestions for Voice Answer Dear Shawn, Thanks so much for your feedback, it's really inspiring to hear how our apps can be of help to people with disabilities. We will look into voiceover functionality, actually we haven't taken that into account yet. I hope we can add button labeling to help. For speech output we depend on our provider. They have changed the voice a few months ago. We are considering other options as well. For now, do check the voice speed setting in 'settings' in the app, you can set it to speak slower or faster. This may help in understanding it better. Thanks again, we are working hard on further improving the app, and feedback like this is what keeps us going at it. Many people expect so much and are fast to complain. Voice Answer has many uses, but we know it is not perfect. Still, we believe it's a great app and we will continue to make it even better!

I was the one that just sent a review to you guys. I gave you 4 out of 5 for Voice Answer. Thanks for incorporating text messaging in your app. I also like how you got the robot to read your text message before you send it. I'm a visually impaired person that uses Voiceover so there are some accessibility issues but they're easy to work around. I got a couple of suggestions, and they are as follows: 1. For Voiceover users, there are 2 unlabelled buttons. One says dimmed button, and the other one says button which I assume is where you press to talk to Eve. If you could label the button to make it say, "Tap here to talk" or something like that, blind users would know where to press. I have some sight so I know where the robot is, but others might not. 2. In one of your other apps called "Voice Ask," when it first came out, Eve sounded human. Go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3ND950SWOo to see what I mean. In that video, you could see that Eve sounded more human, and although you can't hear it in that video, she even took breaths. It would be cool if you brought her back in Voice Answer, or better yet, both apps. Compare her to how she sounds in that video to the way she sounds now. I think you'll find her a bit robotic sounding. 3. If people like the way she sounds now, all robotic and everything, then there should be an option in both apps' settings to choose which voice people want. I really enjoy this app and I can't wait to see what kind of improvements will be added in the next update. Thanks for your time.

Re: what Voiceover bugs people want or are hoping will be fixed or squashed in Mountain Lion?
The Loquendo voices last I heard were recently acquired by Nuance, so we should have a choice, either Realspeak or Loquendo.

Re: what Voiceover bugs people want or are hoping will be fixed or squashed in Mountain Lion?
Hey Sarah. Have you tried the Acapela voices? I'm using Tracy at this moment and she sounds pretty clear, and actually, more calmer than any female voice out there. Give her a try.

Mountain Lion Is Awesome!
Hey guys. I was thinking of using the Siri dictation feature to write this message, but after trying to send a message to Kimsan and seeing that it entered something that I didn't say, I figured I'd write this myself. So with that being said, I must say that Apple did a freaking awesome job with Mountain Lion. My favorite features so far have been the Siri dictation, even though it hears what it wants to hear sometimes, the ability to update more than one App in the App store, and yes, the ability to use some third party Apps that weren't accessible to us in the past. Now I can use Menuweather, the app that I complained that wasn't accessible a few months ago, and change whatever settings I need. Also, for Infovox Ivox 3 users, your voices will continue to work. You don't need to download any patches or anything. I did notice a couple of bugs though. The first one is something that this list has talked about when Lion first launched, and that is the booting up time. For me, when I came home from work and booted up my machine, I pretty much had to wait for about 2-3 minutes before Voiceover started talking. Also, in both Lion and Snow Leopard, both Adium and Skype launched right away after startup. In Mountain Lion, It takes a minute for both apps to launch. These aren't deal breakers though, just minor hinderances. As for the Nuance voices, I'm not gonna even bother using them with Voiceover if they're still making those stupid pitch changes. Why would I if I have Tracy from Acapela? Anyway, all in all, this is a fantastic upgrade, better than Lion in my opinion. I hope you all have fun with Mountain Lion, as I sure am.

Re: Mountain Lion Is Awesome!
Hi Mike. I believe you have to create your own keystroke for notification center. And while we're on the subject of keystrokes, I've noticed while in a dialog, if you want to click on a button, you have to press VO+space twice for some reason before Voiceover clicks it.

Can any Macbook User Confirm this?
Hey guys. Can anyone that has a Macbook confirm this? I was using it on battery power and I was doing something and the Macbook shut down due to low battery. The thing that I want confirmation is the fact that I no longer get the "You are now running on reserved battery power" dialog in Mountain Lion. Now it just shuts off if the battery is low. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, it should be noted that when I ran Chrome on Lion and I was doing something in it, I never got the reserved battery power dialog either. Thanks.

Re: notification center
Chris, in the last postings of this thread, you said that you remembered there being a way to set Growl up to work with Notification Center.

How do I know if all the Nuance voices have been updated? I only got one voice update, and that was for Karen. As for the other voices, like Tom, Samantha, Daniel, Lee and Tessa, it never downloaded updates for them. If they were updated automatically, that's good, although I'm scared to find out because if they weren't, I'll still get those random pitch changes.

Re: speakable objects… very cool!
Hi Alex, as Esther said in another thread, Speakable Items isn't new to the Mac. I was fooling around on Youtube and I saw the same thing she was talking about because I wanted to know if I could get Siri's functionality on the Mac. So I tried it after the video for a few weeks when I had Lion and, well, I wasn't too impressed with it because it completely ignored my energy saver settings and prevented my screen from dimming. This was when I had it set to listen for a key word. Now that Mountain Lion is here, for the people that have at least light perception on this list, does your screen dim after you speak a command?

Re: what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
Hi Alex, I don't know why it's not working for you but it works for me. When I press my designated hotkey for it to open, which is control+F, I can see pretty much everything on my Facebook. I even have Growl configured to tell me if there's a new notification. Perhaps you might want to set up a hotkey to open it yourself. Although, I would be interested in finding out if there's a better program than this, I would like to be able to have news feeds from friends and companies that I've liked automatically read out to me.

New App that sends Growl notifications to Notification Center
Hey all. I just found an app that integrates Growl notifications to Notification Center. The app is called Hiss. It's in beta at this moment that I'm writing this but I'm quite impressed with it. This is something that I've wanted so I downloaded it. You can download the app at http://collect3.com.au/hiss/ Like I said, it is in beta so there's bound to be bugs, but it's pretty accessible with Voiceover. The only condition is that Growl needs to be closed for this app to work. I've set Hiss to start up at log in so for people that have the new Growl installed, since there appears to be no checkbox where there should be for start Growl at log in, how do you set it so that it doesn't start at log in?

Re: New App that sends Growl notifications to Notification Center
Hi everyone. To answer everyone's questions, yes, Voiceover does read the Growl Notifications that are passed to the Notification Center. I think it's a good thing that Growl notifications go to Notification Center because I can easily shut Voiceover up if I don't want it to talk. With Growl the way it is, if you have Voiceover turned off, you have to sit through the whole notification. Sometimes that gets annoying as I have numerous people on Skype with long mood messages. Also to answer Missy's and Christopher's questions. Missy, when I first started Hiss, I did get the empty window you speak of, so I started the program again and found out that my security settings were set to only allow apps from the App Store and well-known developers. I then had to set it up so that it allowed any app to run and then it worked fine. And Christopher, when I ran Hiss for the second time, it gave me a message saying that Growl needs to be not running for it to work. But now it works and all my Growl Notifications are forwarded to Notification Center. I hope that answers everyone's questions.

Re: adium verses trillion?
Hi Cliff. For Facebook, I think Trillion is better than Adium. What I like about it is not only can you chat on Facebook, but Trillion also monitors your contacts' news feeds and if you have Growl set up for it to run with speech, it'll automatically read them. I haven't tried it with my MSN and Aim but when my SamNet subscription expires and I have to use apps that are already installed on my Mac, I will eventually switch my accounts to Trillion. But as the previous lister has said, it's all about preference. Shawn Sent from my white Mac Book -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Problems with Extras Menu New Apps
Hi. Trillion does the same thing as Adium but for Facebook, as I've said here multiple times, it monitors news feeds from your friends and if Growl is configured properly, they'll be automatically read out. Also Bryan, have you considered keeping Trillion in the doc so everytime you need to access it, you can just click on it from your doc and the window will pop up? I try not to use the menu extras that much. The only time I need to access it is to monitor my battery level when my Mac book isn't plugged in.

Hi, there is an easy fix for the problem you're having in Chrome where it loads a page and you have to go back to the edit box. Just use Chromevox.

Also, in earlier versions, I liked being able to view my contacts by status. I think it is a nuisance seeing your contacts in alphabetical order and confusing. I'd like that to be brought back.

Re: My thoughts regarding the latest "VoiceOver On" podcast
Hey all, and merry Christmas. I was reading Massimo's posts about how inaccessible Pages and Text Edit are and I couldn't help but putting my 2 cents into this topic. I also remember the original post in this thread and Massimo, if you think that Pages and Text Edit are that bad, you should've thought about the pros and cons of this OS. For me at least, Pages and Text Edit do everything I need it to do. Sure, VO isn't perfect, but if someone like me wanted to write a letter or whatever, it does the job. But if you need something totally advanced, then I recommend installing Fusion and running Windows. I ain't trying to offend anyone, I just think everyone should do a little research or at least ask someone if they aren't sure if the program or the computer is accessible.

Re: Switching to a Mac from PC
Oh MegaDots. Lol that brings me back to the days when I used it from Grades 6-8 with Dos and the LiteTalk and the navigator for one year. I enjoyed those days. When it was put on my Windows 95 machine in Grade 9 with Jaws though, I missed how the LiteTalk would say everything. But anyway before I get in trouble for going off topic, I, too like how we don't bash people on here about what screen reader or OS we use. I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you don't like how the Mac does what you want it to, then it's not for you and you may wanna go back to Windows. It's not a bad thing. There's a term that I heard in a podcast done by Serotek called the Blind Ghetto. I think most people that use a PC, not all of them, bash other people because the screen reader they use is better than the other person's, hence they live in the Blind Ghetto. But as Mac users we don't fall into that category so why bother starting something that doesn't need to be started? So I'm proud to be on this list because there isn't a lot of drama on here.

Itunes Won't Synch Music Via Wifi To Iphone
Hey all. I'm having a bit of trouble here. I just bought an iPhone on Friday and for some reason my library won't music library won't synch with it via wifi. Is it because I have my iPod Touch synching music to it instead of my iPhone? Other than that, my apps download fine and also I bought a case for it because it was dropping my calls due to the fact that my fingers were always on the antenna. This is an iPhone 4 BTW. I look forward to hearing from you soon about this. Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Itunes Won't Synch Music Via Wifi To Iphone
Hey Aser. As to your question "Are the sync options in the Music tab for the iPhone different from the iPod Touch?", I don't think they're any different but not sure. I'm also wondering if the reason why it won't synch music is because my iPod touch is the only device registered to receive music and you're only allowed one device to be registered. If so, how do I unregister a device? I want to be able to sell my iPod because the iPhone pretty much does what I want it to do and more. If you don't need to unregister a device, I'm stumped as well. Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Itunes Won't Synch Music Via Wifi To Iphone
Hey Ricardo and others. I don't know why, but for some reason the option to synch music was unchecked. Why is that? Is it off by default? I didn't uncheck it.

Is Mac Visionaries Still Alive?
Hey guys. I haven't been getting any emails from this list since Saturday. So I'm wondering, is this list still in existence? Also I have another iPhone question regarding the IMap Weather Radio app. When I used my iPod Touch I could still get alerts about warnings or watches that aren't necessarily in my area. But here on my iPhone, even though I have all the alerts that I want on, I don't get anything. How do I fix that?

I'm back!
Hey Cara and everyone. I'm happy to announce that I'm back on the list. Although for some reason I'm getting emails from January 24 and it's February 6? Weird. Anyway, since I didn't get an answer because of this whole thinking that I was banned and having to re-subscribe, I'll ask my question again. I have the Imap Weather Radio app on my iPhone 4 and for some reason I'm not getting alerts for other cities that I've programmed into it. On my iPod, I was able to get alerts for those cities so why can't I with the iPhone? Once again, it's great to be back on the list.

Creating Ringtones for Iphone
Hey everyone. Has anyone been successful creating their own ringtones? I stayed up last night until 4 in the morning trying to accomplish this. First, I used a program in the Mac App Store called Free Ringtone Maker. It is kinda accessible, but there are a few unlabelled buttons that I'm sure when pressed, they do some kind of function. I also used iTunes to make a ringtone and followed some steps on how to do this, but still no go. It is shown on the phone but it says it's dimmed. So, is there a way of making a ringtone yourself or is there an accessible app to do this? Shawn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Can't Do Conference Calls in Skype 5.5
Hey guys. I'm finding more and more things that I don't like about Skype. First, I'm no longer placed on my contacts. I can live with that, but that's a pain. The second thing is I can't make conference calls. When I try to add someone to the call by the add additional people to conversation feature, the add button is dimmed. Also, when I wanna murge a call with a call that I'm in, it won't do that either when I press the murge button. Way to go, Micro-Shizz, you really broke an awesome program.

Re: Mountain lion and what we would love to be changed.
Well, the thing that disappointed me when Lion came out was the frequent pitch changes with the Nuance voices when using VO. I hope that, if the Nuance voices will still be in Mountain Lion, that that glitch will finally be resolved since I hardly doubt that they'll fix that issue in Lion. It's freaky when Samantha sounds either like a chipmunk or a giant. Perhaps someone should call Apple support and have them listen to a Nuance voice reading an email or something so they know what we're talking about.

Re: Remoting two Macs
Hi. Ok, so if removing two macs will be a problem, does anyone know if Dropbox became accessible as of yet? The last I heard about that, you needed sighted help to install it onto your Mac.

Hey Jennifer and others. I just remembered that someone was having troubles with Growl and that someone said that the preferences for it were in System Preferences.

To access Growl's preferences, go to your apps folder in finder and open Growl as if you were going to launch it. There you will find the preferences. HTH.

Re: Remoting two Macs
Good morning Ricardo. Unfortunately, Dropbox wasn't already installed on here. I don't know if it comes standard on the plastic MacBooks but I heard that the MBP has it on there standard. Perhaps it may have been on here, I don't know. I've had to reformat this thing twice last year to get Windows on here and to get it off but before reformatting this thing the first time I never noticed Dropbox on here. Hope your day goes well.

Re: Messages and the Battery
Hey Ricardo. I have the default brightness set. I kinda have to keep it that way because sighted people sometimes use my computer. I was talking to a friend of mine who reminded me about a keyboard light and I remember last summer when Lion was released that someone said to turn off that keyboard light to save battery power. So with that being said, do the plastic MacBooks have these lights and if so, refresh my memory about disabling them.
