Re: very nice experience at University Village Apple Store in Seattle Washington

Hi Gene, that was me. :) So as not to get OT here, let me simply say that there are a couple of approaches that I've seen to enable accurate use of touch screens by the visually impaired. If there are others, I hope peeps will chime in to share what they know. The first is used by

Angel Learning system and VO

Hi all, Has anyone had any experience with using the Angel LMS with VoiceOver? I am taking a class this summer and I can't figure out how to navigate the interface. I set up an accessibility profile for screenreader use but that seemed to make it more difficult. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, another iTunes/iPod question

Hi all, I had an iPod first, before i got the Mac and figured out iTunes. My friend had put a bunch of stuff on the iPod that I don't want to lose. How can I hook it up to my Mac and start puting stuff on it, without loosing whats on it? I'd like to import what is on it as well. A friend said th

Re: Adding e-mail addresses in address book?

Excellent. I was popping in to ask this very question, and here it was. I haven't really had to worry about it too much, because in typing an address or name, it auto fills, but only if I've previously written the person. I spent about an hour trying to find a way to add a friend's address and fin

IPod Shuffle

I just went to the Apple main site and read about the new IPod Shuffle and VoiceOver. I usually prefer things with actual buttons but I'm excited inspite of myself. the really nice thing, other than the speech of course, is that it actually recognised Greek and with a nice synth too. So does eve

Got my Mac Fixed

Today, I finally went to the Apple store with my mother and got my Macbook fixed. The only thing is that while I got Apple Care, I never registered it, figuring that since it was bought for me, that part was already handled. Well, it turns out that it wasn't and so we had to call Apple Care. Th

Accessible Games for the IIGS

I'm sitting here and checking out some Apple IIGS videos on youtube and am totally blown away by the sound capabilities of this machine! I mean, I've got a pair of stereo headphones on my Acer and this sounds just as good as modern games! So now I wanna know. What games are screenreader accessib

Re: very nice experience at University Village Apple Store in Seattle Washington

Hi some one on here said that visually empaired people are already using touch screens, but the thing I'm trying to figure out is unless apple comes up with a tactile overlay or something, I don't understand how a totally blind person is supposed to be able to use one of these things. Gene

Coda accessible HTML editor [was Re: Transmit FTP Software at half price [was Re: MacUpdate Software Bundle]]

Hello, For the programmers who do HTML web design, I note that Panic software's half price sale includes Coda. According to the list archives this app is accessible: Excerpted from Greg's response: http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40macvisionaries.com/msg27051.html (Re: basic html editor)

Re: very nice experience at University Village Apple Store in Seattle Washington

I don't think you're wrong. I'm sure it's only a matter of time. like someone else said it seemed people were freaking out when the GUI interface came to computers and people found ways to make it accessible to us so I'm sure the same will be done for touch screens in time. I can't think o

Re: very nice experience at University Village Apple Store in Seattle Washington

Hmmm, I guess you could beright too. Maybe i wasn't wrong. I've seen so many people with iphones and have always wanted it to be made speech accessible. Best wishes, Vicki. On 28 May 2009, at 20:34, Jessi and Goldina wrote: > > agreed, Arthur, lol. > if you're gonna take that approach about the

Re: very nice experience at University Village Apple Store in Seattle Washington

Hi, I guess you could be right. It's just I know a few people with iphones and have often thought it'd be great if it had speech on it, however I hadn't thought that the apps would be inaccessible. Apologies for barking up the wrong tree!!! Best wishes, Vicki. On 28 May 2009, at 18:48, Sean Ti
