Re: Chrome has become unusable
I am using Chrome with little issues with most websites. However, there are some sites that using Chrome with VO is not an option Maybe this is just one of those cases. At times I find buttons on pages that no matter what, neither VO or Vox works. Chrome, like most of Google's products, still has some issues with accessibility, and going to Google's help desk is the only way to solve it. I know this does not add much, so good luck and it will be interesting to hear the cause and solution.

Mac Mini Home Theater Setup
I am in the process of figuring out how to create a home theater set up with a Mac Mini, and wondering what are the components and apps I should get for the Mini, iPad, and iPhone. The set up will be used to due video conf via Skype, Google Plus, and Face Time; pseudo studio via GarageBand; and playing (and possibly DVR'ing) movies. What I need: - Wireless Keyboard with or without touchpad - Camera and Mic - Apps on the iPad and iPhone that I can control the Mini with. (I am currently playing with Logitech's iTouch) - Whatever else you all know works and is accessible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Mac Mini Home Theater Setup
At this point, I have the necessary cables for the video and audio out to the TV and speakers, along with the necessary networking equipment. I used to use a wireless Apple keyboard, but did not like the bulk. I know the newer one have slimmed down, but also looking to see if there might be a cheaper option that still retains the gesturing capabilities. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Mac Mini Home Theater Setup
Jason, I looked at the Apple TV's, but decided to go the Mini Route. The main reason is that the Mini will also become the family and video storage center. My wife is starting to venture into photography, and the Mini on the larger screen will be the best way for her to look over her photos.. Additionally, I am picking up a pair of iPads for the home, which will act as the laptops while we travel. I picked up Apple's bluetooth touch pad yesterday, after a long chat with the Apple Tech folks at the local store. Great tip from you all. Furthermore, I spoke with a eye doc in the area who is also a Apple geek. He told me about something he did with some scripting and peripherals, so once I get the info on what he did exactly, I will share it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Guitar chords
Mike, I just searched for Beginner Guitar on my iPhone and his stuff was the first app. The name of the app is Beginner Guitar. I also just found out he has published two new apps for the Blues and Licks. I will be trying them out later, but feel based on his previous works they will be fine. Additionally, I encourage those interested in starting to learn Blues, to check out the box DVD set Marty posted at Guitar Jams. I bought the set and love it. His teaching style is 80-90% accessible, but most of that difference will be made up through experience. @CJ, I am interested in looking into your offer as a guitar teacher.

Plex
While looking for different options to set up my Mini as a home Theater, I came across Plex. Thus far, I managed to set up the home server on the mini and purchased the iOS app. While I am enjoying the ability to stream my media to my various devices, a few areas concern me, though. First involves the fact that the Plex Media Center no longer is accessible. I thought the Media Center was accessible, at some point based on threads from other forums from a while back. Is anyone using either a jailbroken Apple TV (2nd Gen), Roku, or other Plex friendly device? I read a few discussions from a while back about Roku with regards to accessibility, but seen that some issues exist between Roku and the remote feature on the iOS app. I am looking for something that will allow me to stream media from my mini to other TV's in my house. I realize that I could solve most of these issues with an Apple TV 3rd Gen, but would prefer to try figuring out a solution with Plex.

Another Accessible Guitar App
Came across this iOS app that will remain free for a few days. I found it to be accessible, and fairly easy to follow instructions.

Re: Mountain Lion is going to be released today, the 25th
I have about 10 minutes before Mountain Lion is finished installing on my system. I cannot wait to play with some of the new features like the notification center and some of the other carry overs from the iOS platform. I am guessing we sill be spending some time learning or creating some new gestures and shortcuts to take advantage of the new features.

Tutorial for Pages Table of Content
Greetings Everyone, I am very interested in learning how to use the Table of Content feature with Pages. I have tried to use in some of my already existing documents, to create some order and ease of navigation. Unfortunately I kept receiving a message that the document was not formatted for the paragraphs. So for my questions: Are there any good resources on using Pages with Voice over? Is it better to create a new document then insert content?? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Nick, Thank you for the resource and heads up on the Headings. With my already existing documents, I tried the reverse route of ToC first then Headings.

Good Call on Upgrading RAM
Just wanted to say thanks for the discussion about upgrading RAM to help improve VoiceOver's performance. I have been using a Mid 11 Mac Mini, basic model, and noticed several little glitchy things since upgrading to Mountain Lion. I am not saying that going from 2G to 8G solved the glitches, but it definitely improved overall performance and satisfaction. It was not hard to install once I figured out that the RAM is installed via a unique apparatus that forces the RAM to first enter at an angle before needing to push it down to lock it in.

Gmail All Mail Label

Re: Google Plus?
The way this has ben done in the past involves the following. First all users enter Hangouts with Extras.. Visually impaired users use Chrome and install the Accesible Hangouts plugin made by Mohammed Mansuer, I believe. There are some tools that allow you record the Hangout, though I never did that part. It is possible, to pull off, but does requires practice. There was even an attempt to create a call center using blind individuals as the operators, Google Hangouts as the interface, and some other pieces.
