Hi Josh, Dave, Karen, Scott, and Others,
If you want a good place to start learning about using the terminal
and types of commands that you might issue from Terminal, I'd

Actually I just googled debian vmware and appliance. I can't remember the name
of the image, but that should get you something. After getting the image and
booting it I had to ssh to it from my MAC terminal and update it to sid, then
install speakup. It was fairly painless.
I suppose that if th
It does, with two major drawbacks. there is no way to read text line by line,
and there is no way to arrow around in your message if you need to correct a
typo. You can move around, but Talkback won't tell you where you are.

I simply press the return key after either entering the complete address (if

automatically lets Mail know that you wish to enter a new recipient without the

Did you have to recompile the kernel to install Speakup? For some reason, I
thought that Speakup wasn't available as Debian packages.

I am attempting to use the free version of Pandora on the iPhone 4. When I

This only seems to happen over my wireless network. When usin

In Snow Leopard, I just press return on the folder name, type the new name and

Thanks. I thought that was the case but for some reason the particular folder
I'm trying to rename doesn't seem to allow that whereas normally it works. I

the folder is read-only or something similar. I'll have to loo

Hi Corey!
All you have to do is open webkit so it appears in the doc!
Then when it is there scroll to it and press vo - shift - m to bring up that
menu and then scroll to keep in doc and vo space bar from then on webkit will
stay in the doc!

Hello just whack enter on the folder name, type what you want and hit enter.
Same goes for file names. It will only highlight the file name not the
extension in the file renaming case.

That's odd. I rename folders I copy from dvd volumes and cd volumes all the

Hi all,
My subject line pretty much says it all. I hadn't used this app in a while, but
it is up to date; I just checked. I wanted to use it with Safari just now,
something I've done a lot in the past. And I can't activate the audio source
button. I vo space on it or use the magic track pad to t
permissions from read only to read/write. That allowed me to use the normal
rename procedure, press enter and enter the new name.

need to go into the get info menu and open up the more information section and

I should note that airfoil still works if I use it with Itunes. I just tried

Hi Mary. You need to do VO shift space on the sources button. This is the VO
context menu command. It brings up a menu where you choose your source. If
the app you want isn't listed, you can select other applications, which
presents a dialog where you can choose from any app.

Hi Scott,
When you go to the Pandora site on your Mac, and something starts playing, can
you make new stations etc? Or do you just have whatever station your sighted

Hi all,
I just tried to grab a book from bookshare.org using webkit. The zip file
downloaded just fine, but I can't seem to get a password prompt when I go to

Also, when I used windows I would just open the .xml file from daisy books
Hi John,
I don't know if this has to do with it, but I unzip my files using unarchiver,
a free software that unzips any kind of file. when I unzip the bookshare book
it does give me the prompt for the password.
and yes, you can open the xml file and you can read the book with safari.
Hth,

I figured it out. I had to extract the book using stuffit expander. All is
good, now.

and I can't read it like that.
