TapTapSee: Making A Wrong A Right

2014-02-06 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Folks,

A while back when I had purchased another app with a similar problem that 
Robert has described, the developers handled the situation totally differently. 
The fact was that I needed to rstore the app, but there was no record that I 
had purchased it when attempting this from the phone. I needed to submit my 
receipt to the devs and once they confirm the purchas, they gifted me back the 
amount lost so I could repurchase it again. This I call good business 
practice. It would be nice if the devs of TapTapSee could do the same and make 
a wrong a right. There are so many of us that want to support those who create 
apps that include accessibility within their apps. JMO.

Cheers,
Eileen

Re: a tap tapt see rant

2014-02-02 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Sandy, 

I have never used Texj Grabber in a moving vehicle. I'll have to store that in 
my tips bag for the future. Thanks for the tip on using Facetime. I have never 
used it, so I'll have to read up on what is involved. I do have plenty of 
family and friends that have iPhones. Also, MBraille now supports a dot command 
for it, so it will make it a snap to use it. With Red Laser, it has been hit 
and miss if I can find the barcode and get it to work. I usually end up using 
Digit-Eyes or Talking Goggles, which depends on what I need to identify. Text 
Grabber is my app of choice with the StandScan. It is more accurate than my 
scan and read software and hardware on my PC. Oh by the way, a cookie fortune 
is a tiny piece of paper maybe 1/2 X 1-1/2 in size (approx.). 

Cheers, 
Eileen

 Eileen,
 I am afraid I am one of the few people on this list who has never really 
 liked TapTapSee. When it was free it was at worst a dubious tool for me, but 
 with the advent of the credit system I just deleted it from my phone. The 
 tools I tend to use for various types of identification are: textGrabber, 
 camFind, and red laser. As for fortune cookies, I have never had one! I can 
 only imagine that the print is very small and His Honour tiny piece of paper? 
 This would, probably, pose a problem for most of the OCR packages. However, I 
 will say this: textGrabber has developed into a really useful scanning tool. 
 It works well FreeHand nowadays. It is easy to turn the flash on which 
 greatly improves your results. The only time it has let me down was, in fact, 
 yesterday. I was attempting to show the app off to some other VO users while 
 we were all travelling together on the train. In the past, I have used, with 
 some success, both Prizmo and TextGrabber while travelling on the train. But 
 because TextGrabber has developed a more effective automatic focusing system, 
 which works well in a steady environment, The movement of the train meant it 
 can no longer work there. A small price to pay for a really excellent app.
 
 Speaking personally, rather than use a nap like TapTapSee, I would prefer, if 
 it was really necessary, to Either use FaceTime or even Facebook to get help 
 from others to identify something for which my other apps will not work.
 
 JMT,
 Sandy (HRH)

 come back was,  fortune cookie paper.  Brilliant deduction Sherlock.  I 
 am blind not dense.  Next came back with numbers.  Oops!  wrong side so I 
 flip it over.  Then next I get, white paper with black text.  No 
 kidding!  Next I finally am treated to the actual fortune.  Now I had 
 another one stuffed in my jacket pocket so I decided since I was in 
 picture wasting  mode I might as well try for more.  First was fortune 
 cookie paper,  then text on white paper, then numbers, my bad again, turn 
 it over.  Then back to same stuff different side.  Finally, the words I 
 had been waiting to  hear.  all in all, 11 pictures wasted before outcome 
 is achieved.  I have paid for 100 pictures and feel this is a huge rip 
 off.  If I had a way to ask even though in this case I don't feel I should 
  have to state the obvious,  A lot of time and wasted effort could have 
 been eliminated.  Any thoughts  anybody?

 to pay to use Tap Tap See. You would be better off investing the $150 or 
 whatever it is to get a good stand-alone colour identifier from a place like 
 Maxiaids or Blind Mice Mart. The one I have had for probably at least 10 or 
 15 years is I think the Colorino Colour Identifier which I am quite sure is

Re: Vizwiz Contact info from the website

2014-01-30 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

The way VizWiz works is that you take a picture first. The next step is that 
you will be prompted to record a question. A new screen will open and you can 
toggle the different types of response engines. I usually only select web 
workers. The last time I use the app it took about 4 minutes to get a 
response. However, at the time, I didn't have any sighted assistance, so the 
wait was worth it. HTH.

 still this is the best result I've gotten in a long time.
 
 I also wrote to support and got a thoughtful and positive response back.
 
 I hope that VizWiz can improve and mature as a app.  It seems that they are 
 also hurting from lack of funding and other changes making it difficult to 
 reply to the requests.

Hi Mary,

I use NoteMaster. I like it because it will save my docs in DOCX format. 
Hence, when I open up DropBox in Win 7, I can do all the editing that I can't 
find in iText Express on the Mac. In that program on the Mac, I save the doc as 
a DOCX and save it to DropBox. . This has been my work around since I don't 
have a virtual machine running on my Mac. I also work out in the field and on

I need to do is to open DropBox on the PC side and I'm good to go. HTH.

Hi Marianne,

First, let me apologize for not getting your name correct in the last post to 
you. I am not sure how much this app cost, but I don't think it's over $5. I 
could be wrong because I purchased it so long ago. Another list member 
recommended it and it was exactly what I needed because I am on the road a fair 
amount of time after providing training to my clients. I hope you enjoy this

Re: package tracking app?

2014-01-24 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

I just want to point out that if one goes to the archives and searches for 
Track This they will find threads on this very topic. The recommendations of 
other apps to replace this one has been discussed extensively about a month 
ago. I know I will get some flack for sending this post, and i will use the 
delete key because I have read the pevious posts on this topic once before. 
Please don't take this the wrong way, but we should all try to  search in the 
archives before reposting a topic that has been listed before and then post if 
there are any related questions to the topic at hand. 

Thanks for listening.

Kind regards,
Eileen

 Hi Jared,
  
 Parcel also auto-detects and automatically pastes any tracking numbers you 
 put in the clipboard. I’ll check out Delivery Status Touch as well. I think 
 if the developer of the Parcel app were to implement something like Ship-Rack 
 where you can forward any emails containing a tracking number to a particular 
 email address and they then automatically get added to the app then Parcel 
 would have the edge over the rest. I’ll email the dev and suggest it.

 I'm a big fan of Delivery Status touch. The two features I like are the 
 ability for it to use your amazon login to track an amazon order if you know 
 the order number and it's ability to automatically detect tracking numbers on 
 the clipboard when you open the app and prompt you to add them.

 Hi everyone, 
  
 One of my favorite apps has been Track This, an easy to use voice over 
 friendly package tracking app. I hadn't used it in a while, but I have some 
 things coming via FedEx and when I went to enter the info in the app today, 
 I got a message saying that Track This is closed and is no longer accepting 
 info. Maybe this is old news but I didn't know till today. so, can anyone 
 recommend another accessible package tracking app? That was one of the most 
 useful apps I ever had.

Re: VizWiz

2014-01-22 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Folks,

I just used VizWiz and I am happy to say that I received an answer. I am using 
an iPhone 4, iOS 6.1.2, and the version of VizWiz prior to the current version. 
It took 4 minutes to receive the first answer. I am not sure if one is using 
iOS 7.0.4 and a 64 bit chip on the phone that would make a difference if VizWiz 
would behave differently. If others continue to have problems using the app, 
then a concertive effort to let the developers know of the issues. HTH
Bast,
Eileen

 Hello,
  
 Somebody asked recently whether VizWiz was still working. I used it yesterday 
 for the first time on my  iPhone 5S to see if I could get a reply about what 
 the LED display of my digital thermostat for my in-floor heating system said.
  
 First of all I took the picture, then as usual I tapped Record and asked my 
 question. However, when I tapped to send the picture, the app said that no 
 question had been recorded. I did allow the app to use the microphone and 
 tried a few more times both with Apple Earpods plugged in and without using 
 the iPhone’s built-in microphone and it appears that it doesn’t want to 
 record the question. Has anybody else experienced this?
  
 Anyhow, I sent the image to webworkers anyways assuming they might get what I 
 want.
 Now it gets interesting. I sent the picture a few minutes before 11 AM and 
 then did something else for a minute or 2 waiting for a reply. When none came 
 I used Tap Tap See and within about 20 seconds received a result which said 
 “Thermostat 26 Degrees” which is exactly what I wanted.
 I forgot about VizWiz until about 4:30 PM (5 and a half hours after I sent 
 the picture) at which time I received 2 push notifications from VizWiz, here 
 is the text:
  
 1.   Where is the question, it is good looking switch
 2.   Thermostat 26 degrees Celsius
  
 So, VizWiz apparently still does work, but even if answers came after 10 
 minutes instead of 5.5 hours the service is pretty useless in many instances 
 where you probably want an answer immediately which means at least within a 
 minute or so.
  
 Of course there is still the issue that at least on my 5S VizWiz also doesn’t 
 seem to record the question. Let’s hope Tap Tap See comes up with a way to 
 ask a question, I think even asking a question you have to type into a text 
 field would be good and probably even better since a recording takes up a lot 
 more space hence it takes longer to transmit the picture with a recording and 
 one can always use SIRI to dictate a short question which is probably just as 
 good.

 Sieghard

Re: I'll rephrase that - Re: Question - Re: Digit-Eyes Version 2

2014-01-20 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Karen,

On the Digit-Eyes web site, Nancy Miracle has a link discussing laser scanners 
that she recommends and has tested extensively with Digit-Eyes. I too have an 
old ID Omni Mate, but I only use it when I have extreme difficulty finding the 
barcode with Digit-Eyes. Remember, the camera on the iPhone is not 
multi-directional, which will make it more time comsuming to find. On the same 
web site, there is another link to give you tips on how to be more sucessful 
finding the barcodes on various objects. The website address is 
www.digit-eyes.com. HTH. Happy scanning.

Hi Sandy,

I haven't used Fleksey for a long while, so I took your example and Chuck's 
instructions and it worked fine. When I flicked up to add the word to the 
dictionary, Fleksey said something like learn word. The next time I used the 
word as usual on the Fleksey keyboard and flicked right, the word was enter 
correctly. HTH.

 Sorry, I do not have any tips other than to take your time, and once you have 
 finished typing the word be sure to flick one finger right to enter the word. 
 Once you do this you can flip up to entered in the dictionary.
 
 If you flick up or down before you enter the word, Fleksy will choose a word. 
 New line hope this helps.

ID Mate. Let's see if I can be concise and give you some tips. 

1. for boxes, I locate the top flap as if I would open it, and then turn it 
upside down and try the left corner of the box.
2. for cans, I find the seam in the label and move just to the left of it. I 
will move the can instead of the phone to locate the barcode.
3. On a spray can, there may not be a seam, so I turn the sprayer about 180 
degrees and start at the bottom of the can. This just happened to me yesterday, 
but I found the barcode quickly. 
4. A bottle may have 2 labels on it (one in front; one in back) Usually the 
smaller of the 2 labels will be the back one. Again, I go to the bottom of the 
label and start from there. 

I found that moving the object instead of the phone has increased my ability to 
find the barcodes. In the future I may purchase a laser barcode scanner, but at 
this time I don't need it. HTH.

Best,
Eileen

 Which laser scanner do you have. I am one of these people who do not find

 I still have difficulties finding the barcodes.

 Hello Karen,
 
 On the Digit-Eyes web site, Nancy Miracle has a link discussing laser 
 scanners that she recommends and has tested extensively with Digit-Eyes. I 
 too have an old ID Omni Mate, but I only use it when I have extreme 
 difficulty finding the barcode with Digit-Eyes. Remember, the camera on the 
 iPhone is not multi-directional, which will make it more time comsuming to 
 find. On the same web site, there is another link to give you tips on how to 
 be more sucessful finding the barcodes on various objects. The website 
 address is www.digit-eyes.com. HTH. Happy scanning.

 Since my almost 20 year old ID Mate is no longer functioning well, I 
 decided to give Digit-Eyes a try.  I'm impressed!  But I'm not finding the 
 bar codes as quickly with Digit-Eyes, and my phone's camera,  as I could 
 with my ID Mate.  For those of you using a laser scanner, do you find it 
 easier to find the bar codes with the scanner than with the phone's 
 camera?  Also, which bar code scanners are you finding work well with your

 So, should Voice Over start with the triple home button click if I turn it on?
  
 Otherwise it will be a couple of days before I could get sighted assistance.
  
 Sorry for such a basic question, but I wanted to be sure I knew what I was

 I have to say, my netbook is going south, and it is because of the

problems Editing The Message Field While In Safari

2014-01-09 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Folks,

Here's a strange one that just occurred while in Safari that I hope others can 
shed some light on. I was in a specific app and access the support page through 
Safari. I used MBraille to compose the text and pasted it into the message edit 
field. I then had VO read it back and noticed that there were a couple of 
extraneous letters that I wanted to delete at the end of the message. I went to 
the end of the message, changed the rotor to words, but when I flicked up VO 
wouldn't speak and it seemed like the cursor didn't move. Has anyone had this 
happen to them and what was the solution that fixed this? I appreciate any 
input on this. I am running an iPhone 4 with iOS 6.1.2.

Thanks in advance..

Best,
Eileen

Re: Seeing Eye GPS adds monthly subscription

2014-01-04 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi,

I have been one who has been sitting on the fence in purchasing this, even 
though I have Sendero on my Apex. The advantage that I can see between the 
Seeing Eye app over Blind Square and lets say Navigon is that all the features 
are within one app. That might effect the battery life on the phone. However, 
if I'm not mistaken, one needs data for the Seeing Eye app and not for Navigon. 
I'm not sure what others have found about the amount of cellular data use with 
the app. I only have 2 GB on my plan. HTH.

 Subject: RE: Seeing Eye GPS adds monthly subscription
 
 Hi Tom, Keith and others,
 
 I totally agree, I think the $9.95 monthly subscription is awesome, it
 allows people who are on the fence or who don't need the app very often to
 try it or subscribe a couple of times a year when it would come in handy.
 I hadn't bought the Seeing Eye app because I live in a very small town where
 I rarely need a turn-by-turn GPS at all, but I occasionally travel where it
 would be nice to have it. Last July when the app first came out 7 11 here in
 Canada had a promotion where one could buy a $50 iTunes gift card for $40,
 but while I bought 3 cards, $150 for $120, I still decided to hold off given
 some of the limitations of the app. Given the 20% discount the app would
 only cost me $104 for 3 years or $34.67 a year or $2.89 a month, but it's
 still nice to try it for $9.95 and then decide.
 
 One of the big issues in my view and also one Mike emphasized in his demo
 was the fact that one could not use the Seeing Eye app with the phone
 locked. Now that this functionality has been added (at least in iOS 7) I
 decided today to buy a 1-month subscription since I am going to be in
 Vancouver for a couple of days anyways next week. I tried it out today in my
 home town and quite liked it. It very much reminded me of the sort of
 feedback I got when I had a Trekker except that of course the Trekker
 Maestro I bought 5 years ago was $2,000.
 
 I think this is a smart move and the update seems to be a good one and it
 definitely seems like Sendero is taking the customer feedback they receive
 seriously. I still think that with the combination of Blindsquare and either
 Apple Maps or Google Maps one can enjoy a lot of what the Seeing Eye app
 offers, but the update combined with the monthly subscription is a good
 idea.
 
 
 Regards,
 Sieghard

 Hi,
 I like the idea of the monthly subscription since there's no demo that you
 could use to evaluate the app for a month or two.  If you drop ten bucks for
 
 a month's trial, then decide to opt for a three-year subscription you're
 still doing okay.

 Hello all. I just noticed that the Seeing Eye GPS app has an update.
 Amongst several bug fixes and enhancements they have added a monthly
 subscription. I don't yet know the cost however because when I try to go
 there I get an error telling me that it's unable to purchase. Most likely
 this is an error they overlooked because I see the price for the 3 year

An All Inbox Clear Button

2013-12-27 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

After reading many threads on how to delete emails all at once, I decided to 
see what all the hipe was all about. In both my Gmail and personal email 
account, in the upper right hand corner there is an edit button. Once the 
interface opens, if one double taps on the email to delete, VO will say 
selected. Select all the emails one wants to get rid of, and then go to the 
bottom left hand corner and tap on the delete button. VO will also announce the 
number of deleted item. I believe that the Apple developers purposely did not 
place a clear button to prevent users from deleting important emails 
aidently. JMO. So, for all of those on this list who want an all clear 
button, think twice about what you wish for. It might bite back in the future. 
I guess I am not bothered by not having an all clear button for my email. 

Take care.

Best,
Eileen

Re: home sharing not working. headache with apple tv

2013-12-26 Thread Eileens Misrahi
I would suggest checking your control panel on your PC under Network and 
Sharing. I thought my post on this went through either yesterday or the day 
before. You will need to tab over to a link called Home Groups and Sharing (I 
think that's the name. I'm not at my PC to get the exact link name. Once the 
dialog box opens, tab to the different check box choices and select the check 
box with the spacebar. I would try this first before purchasing a new router. 
Remeber, if you return the router within the return policy, there may be a 
restocking fee of 15'% (a loss). HTH.

Hi Raul,

Thanks for your post. You stated the answer better than I whenI posted a few 
days ago (if it got posted). I'm hoping your post on this hypothetical thread 
situation can now be put to rest. I am one who backs up my phone to my computer 
periodically, so I have a a version that has not become broken as a backup. 
This should be a best practice by all, but I sometimes don't do it myself as 
regularly as I would like.

Re: apple tv, and network problem

Hi Pablo,

I was curious to see if my home sharing was working since you were having 
problems getting it to work. I opened iTunes on my Mac Air and checked if home 
sharing was on. I then went to my Apple TV and set that up. On the first row in 
the main menu, in the fifth position is the computer link. I used the select 
button on the Apple TV remote. VO announced my library associated to my email 
address for iTunes. It did not start immediately and I needed to go in and out 
of it a few times before it would connect. I am now listening to my music that 
is stored in iTunes through the Apple TV as I compose this message to you. HTH.

Re: apple tv, and network problem

2013-12-25 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Pablo,

I would like some info from you. I am running iTunes 11.1.2 on both my PC and 
Mac Air. Under the file tab, there is a menu item for home sharing. Make sure 
you that the option listed is to turn off home sharing connected to your email 
account. This will confirm if home sharing is on for iTunes. I can't remeber if 
the home sharing in your network settings need to be on. On the PC, I clicked 
on Control panel --Network and sharing and tabbed over to Choose Home Group 
and Sharing. This will open a dialog box that you can check or uncheck boxes 
on the items you want to share. I don't know if this will fix it, but it's 
worth a try. HTH.

 Hi Eileen 
 Well, I don't know what else to do. I  wrote my apple account in the settings 
 of my apple tv. It said, fine.
 I wrote my apple account password, and again, it said, fine.
 When I go to computers, I click on this icon,   then my apple tv says loading 
 library, and after a while, it says;
 Not able to connect to library, make sure that both devises are connected to 
 the same network. iTunes is out of date, and iTunes is open.
 I don't know why it says iTunes is out of date, because I have the last 
 version, I downloaded it from apple.com yesterday. More over, in my iTunes, 
 when I went to  home sharing, Iit is saying now turn home sharing off, 
 because it is on now.
 When I turned it on, it asked me my apple account, and password. and after 
 press enter, it says, done.
 But I can't connect my library.
 Any suggestion?

 Hi Pablo,
 
 I was curious to see if my home sharing was working since you were having 
 problems getting it to work. I opened iTunes on my Mac Air and checked if 
 home sharing was on. I then went to my Apple TV and set that up. On the first 
 row in the main menu, in the fifth position is the computer link. I used the 
 select button on the Apple TV remote. VO announced my library associated to 
 my email address for iTunes. It did not start immediately and I needed to go 
 in and out of it a few times before it would connect. I am now listening to 
 my music that is stored iniTunes through the Apple TV as I compose this 
 message to you. HTH.

Re: Apple TV

2013-12-24 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Pablo,

I just thought I would think out-of-the-box and suggest using Talking 
Googles, VizWiz, or TapTapSee to see if that may give you some idea where 
the HDMI setting is in the menu list. What brand of TV do you have? On my 
Toshiba, on the remote the upper left hand corner button activates the TV menu 
and then I need to press the number corresponding to the menu item for it to 
change to the right selection for the Apple TV. I only mention this because you 
may have something similar on your remote. The reason why I mention one of the 
above object reading apps for the phone is that it may give you the order in 
which the HDMI item is in the menu. GTH.

Best,
Eileen

 Hi,
 
 Yes - you need to turn it on before it will talk. Additionally, since
 it doesn't include a speaker you will have to connect it to your TV to
 hear anything, although bare in mind that it will be silent for around
 2 to 3 minutes or so before you hear voiceover talking.
 
 Personally it took me many attempts to enable voiceover, but I'm still
 not sure what I was doing wrong as others seem to have no problem with
 it.
 
 Cheers,
 Ben.

Re: Wells fargo

2013-12-22 Thread Eileens Misrahi
If one has a back up on their computer of a previous version, then the answer 
is yes. What one would need to do first is to delete the current version from 
the phone. I usually make sure in iTunes that I have turned off automatic 
syncing in the iTunes preferences. This is so I don't mess up. Next, I connect 
my phone and highlight my device, tab to apps, check it with spacebar and then 
tab to sync apps and check that. Tab over until you find the list table of all 
your apps. You will need to arrow down until you hear Wells Fargo. This will be 
unchecked. Check it with the spacebar. Tap to either the sync button (I think) 
and enter on it. This will restore the previous version of Wells Fargo back on 
the phone. HTH.

 Of course if he try to download the wells fargo from iCloude, the app, will

 Now, If Mr. X  comes back to his home, and he modify the settings in his

 he will get the the back up of the wells fargo app in his computer, but this

 But in the directory;
 D:\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications\ is where 
 iTunes store the apps when we have the back up in our computer. What happen 
 if Mr X, find the the wells fargo app, delete it, then somebody from the list 
 send by email the file Wells Fargo 2.6.1.ipa, who is the older version, the 
 accessible app of wells fargo, and Mr. X  copy this app in the directory 
 where the apps are stored?
 If Mr. X. after copy this file in the directory, and delete the app wells

 Hi Pablo,
 
 I'm glad you had a backup on your computer. To answer your question Beverly, 
 there is no way to send an version of an app over the iCloud. In fact, the 
 advantage of creating a backup on ones computer is in situations like this 
 when an app becomes broken. When one backs up there apps to the Cloud, it's 
 the most current version that will be placed back on the phone. I hope this 
 will assist you in the future. I learned the hard way when I first got my 
 phone and began updating.

 Eileen

Hello,

Although I didn't lose any function when my prone began to behave that way, it 
was the battery level that was affected. I am running an iPhone 4 and what 
seemed to  fix the automatic restart was to  perform a hard reset by pressing 
down the home button with the power button on the top right. I had this problem 
about 2-3 weeks ago and it seemed to help for now. One more comment. In 
10/2012, I was still on the Apple Care warrenty and I needed to  trade back in 
the original iPhone 4 because the automatic restart of the phone would not 
clear or reset. I only mention this because you may need to make a jhic to the 
Apple Store. HTH

 password those options need to be either turned off or turned on I find 
 that even though it doesn't make much of a sound when you enter in the 
 information it does take and you can go ahead and get to the entries you 
 need. I am not saying this works for everyone but this has worked for me. 
 It is deceiving because you think that the letters are not going in, but 
 they really do seem to be going where they're supposed to be, because when 
 I go to my login I did get all of my information. Again I'm not saying

 EXCUSE ME Robert! I take offense of being called a liar I use the

 sales receipt, I check my account to make sure that the checkout clerk
 didn't try anything funny and tell me one thing for my total purchase, 
 but
 enter something else.
 
 To confirm for you that I do use the most up-to-date Wells Fargo app, 
 when
 you launch the app, swiping from left to right from the top of the 
 screen (I
 use my iPhone) you will hear Hamburger Menu 36 x 36!
 
 If you keep swiping down the screen to you get to enter your online
 username, double tap, then start entering your username, you should hear 
 the
 letters being entered followed by a sound if you have keyboard sounds 
 turned
 on. Trail your finger down the screen til you hear online password, 
 double
 tap, then start entering your password. You should hear the same as when
 entering your online username.
 
 Maybe you should try uninstalling the app and reinstalling the app.
 
 Yes, I will agree the previous version of the app was a bit easier to
 navigate, but this version can be worked with.

Hi Pablo,

I'm glad you had a backup on your computer. To answer your question Beverly, 
there is no way to send an version of an app over the iCloud. In fact, the 
advantage of creating a backup on ones computer is in situations like this when 
an app becomes broken. When one backs up there apps to the Cloud, it's the most 
current version that will be placed back on the phone. I hope this will assist 
you in the future. I learned the hard way when I first got my phone and began 
updating. 

Best,
Eileen

 the wells fargo app in my iPhone, and I restored the wells fargo app stored 
 in my iPhone, the old version. I am using the old version, due the 
 accessibility problem with the last update.

 Hello,
 
 I was in a local branch this morning on another business matter. Before 
 leaving, I demonstrated the problem to the banker stating that I haven't 
 upgraded, but the edit fields are not present and other blind individuals 
 can't log in, or know that one is entering their user name and password to 
 sign in. Since I still have the edit fields, I was able to show him what is 
 missing. I have an appointment on Monday, so hopefully he will have some 
 info for me. I will post again at that time.

 Hi all, I also use the WellsFargo app. There is an option in the new 
 updated version that says save username and I think there is one for 
 save  password those options need to be either turned off or turned on I 
 find that even though it doesn't make much of a sound when you enter in 
 the information it does take and you can go ahead and get to the entries 
 you need. I am not saying this works for everyone but this has worked 
 for me. It is deceiving because you think that the letters are not going 
 in, but they really do seem to be going where they're supposed to be, 
 because when I go to my login I did get all of my information. Again I'm

Re: New EyeNote

2013-12-19 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

I just want to point out where to go for the settings for Eyenote. In the 
native settings app on the phone, there is a submenu link for Eyenote. Tap on 
it. By default, show settings is turned off. If one toggles it on, within the 
Eyenote app there will be a settings button that one can select speech, tones, 
or vibration. This feature use to be in the older versions of Looktel Money 
Reader. To me, it's important that this app has a choice in privacy when one is 
out in public. HTH.

 is identified no matter what the light conditions.  Once I moved to a bright

   I thought it was interesting that it identified the front or back of

 Having the app work in all light conditions would be a welcome improvement

Re: Fleksy Keyboard Makes Its Way To iOS Through Third-Party Apps

2013-12-19 Thread Eileens Misrahi
now I am going to put my 2 sense in. Talking about choice, if I had my option, 
I would make MBraille my default keyboard. So in one sense, I needed to learn 
all different dot commands, but it has been well worth it. About 90'% of the 
time, I can directly input and access the major functions on the phone. This 
may be OT, but it's related to choice and what Apple may do in the future to 
allow third-party word processing apps to become part of the mainstream in iOS 
devices.

 What would be even better is if Apple allowed other keyboards to be
 installed and set as the default. This is going to require the
 developer of each app to add these features. On Android for example,
 you can set fleksy as your default keyboard and it automatically
 appears in any app when entering text.

 Hi, I've seen this happen in my favorite Google Voice app called GV
 Connect, and it's also available in Blind Square. I believe also there
 is a note taking app which uses the Fleksy SDK for that access. So, to
 me this is a step forward in the right direction. I hope more
 developers
 continue to do this for those who really like Fleksy. After all, it's
 not just a blindness friendly app.

 there’s
 one thing about Android is that it is not as restrictive compared to
 iOS. This means that users are able to customize their device to their
 liking, sometimes without even having to root their phone. For example
 customization could be a change in launchers, or keyboards, or even

Instapaper Is Really A Subscription Based App

2013-12-15 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Folks,

I thought I would comment on the free Instapaper app. It's not really free 
after your 2 months. After creating an account in the app, you are brought to a 
subscription page. Here's the breakdown to add to your free 2 months:

Add 3 months for $2.99.
Add 6 months for $5.99.
Add 1 year for $11.99.

So, this will be another recurrent charge per x months or for the year. I 
wasn't expecting this when I downloaded the app to my phone. I just wanted to 
post to let others know to make an informed decision to download it or not.

Cheers,
Eileen

Blind Square: Adjusting The Filter Annoucement Level

2013-12-06 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

In Blind Square, on the top row, the fourth button or tab from the left is 
filter annoucements. Single finger double tap on it to open the dialog box. 
The first item is a picker with 6 options on how much information one wants to 
hear from Blind Square. The first option is all. This will annouce and list all 
catagories one has selected. For me, it's too much info, so I only have my 
places and streets selected. This is a personal decision on the amount of 
annoucements one wants to hear. HTH.

I opened Fleksy on my iPhone 4, which is still running iOS 6.1.2. I am unable

 I also wouldn't assume Google products won't get more accessible over time.
 Google Maps, ChromeOS, Android, Chrome with ChromeVox and so on have all
 improved accessibility tremendously over the last few years.

Google Drive: Questions About Use And Accessibility

2013-11-30 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

I have installed Google Drive on my iPhone 4. The reason being that it gives 
sustantially more storage sface then DrofBox. My questions are:
1. Are there known accessible issues with the iPhone?
2. I tried accessing my photos to upload them to Google Drive and access was 
denied to this user, as the error message. Is there a setting that I am 
missing? I went into the settings on the phone and couldn't find any setting to 
change there. 
3. Are there any tricks to using this on the iPhone?

Any suddestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Eileen

Downloading Paprika Running iOS 6.1.2

2013-11-26 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi All,

I'm starting a new thread regarding the Paprika recipe app. I not sure if this 
was answered or not, but I'm still running iOS 6.1.2. When I attempted to 
purchase Paprika for the phone, it stated that you needed to be running iOS 7. 
My question is: Is there a work around to download the app to the phone running 
iOS 6.1.2 and what is the best way to accomplish this? I have purchased it for 
the Mac, but also wanted it on the phone. 

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Eileen

Unique Features In Digit-Eyes

2013-11-16 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

I thought I would point out another feature in Digit-Eyes that isn't seen in 
other apps. If you have a item that you scan and it isn't found in any of the 
data base, then Digit-Eyes will announce the code in numbers and a prompt to 
record the description. This comes in handy when one scans the object again 
because Digit-Eyes will announce your recording. 

On another point, when using your own labels, the beauty of Digit-Eyes is that 
you can record at any lenghth of message barring that you don't run out of 
memory on one's phone. :) I don't believe the other apps will allow that If 
there is an app that has this feature, I would be interested in knowing. These 
are just my thoughts on this app, so others can review the website at 
www.digit-eyes.com for themselves and make an inform decision if Digit-Eyes is 
worth the money to them. HTH.

Cheers,
Eileen

Re: red laser

2013-11-13 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

I want to make this point no matter which barcode scanner one will use on the 
phone. An understanding on where one would look for a barcode on different 
products is essential to be successful. I haven't had a chance to play with Red 
Laser yet, I'm very profficient in using Digit-Eyes. I know that on Digit-Eyes 
website, there is a link discussing barcode placement on various products. This 
may give one a better understanding on where to start. 

Now, I will tell you about some differences between the two apps. With 
Digit-Eyes, one can print out their own labels to use with many purposes. For 
me, my work entails generating files and paperwork that I need to keep. So, 
this feature is necessary for me. Also, one can purchase laundry labels that 
are waterproof, which can be affixed to the labels on clothing or kitchen 
containers that are reusable. I just wanted to point these differences out, so 
if one needs the ability to create labels that DigitEYES has this feature. HTH.

Best,
Eileen

 Hi,
 Practising with the back side of CD cases is a very good way to start. 
 Similarly, the back outside cover of a paperback will render results. 
 Lastly, something such as the stand scan pro will definitely make things 
 easier as you can position the phone on the top and then slowly move your 
 item within the view of the camera inside the box. I find this particularly 
 useful when I want to find the barcode on something cylindrical such as a 
 tin or a bottle or a jar.
 
 As for using the app: I wouldn't complicated, I wouldn't have multiscan is 
 turned on and neither would I play with navigation or history, I would just 
 double tap the scan button on the top right, search around for the code, and 
 then wait till I hear a sound that indicates that the barcode has been 
 found. Then just wait a little longer for the recognition to happen.

 First of all, I do not want to have to associate each task with a specific

 I would like to be able to sync this list between the phone and the computer. 
 I would prefer the use of the Microsoft exchange server, but would except

Re: BlindSquare, A Disappointment

2013-10-28 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

Now, my response may be consider a new thread or highjacking this one, but all 
of the options that one has with GPS only gives a blind person information and 
doesn't substitute for good cane skills. Although it would be nice to obtain if 
an intersection has multi-lanes or a one way street, if one has had good 
mobility training then this info is not necessary and could figure it out on 
its own. Personally, when the Seeing Eye-Sendero app was released, I thought I 
would purchase it because I have Sendero on my Braille Note, but refrained 
because of certain features it didn't have. I was able to replace it with 
MyWay Lite for what I needed. I do have several GPS apps on my phone, but 
usually use Blind Square, Navigon, Google Maps and occasionally iMove. Every 
single one of us will have our favorites that work well in different situations 
and it's nice to have lots of options. JMO.

Best,
Eileen

 Well, for POI, FourSquare is reliant on its users checking in to places to

 marked than NZ, at least for large cities, but smaller towns are not marked 
 very well at all.
 
 The same is true for the free user-identified street maps. Outside heavy 
 smartphone use areas where people are marking streets, nothing will be 
 identified. Therefore, even though Blind Square accesses worldwide data, the 
 data is not readily available outside the US, Canada, UK, and parts of

 Apple Maps and Google Maps actually access better map data. The same is true 
 for other general market GPS apps which are sold for specific countries.

 Hi
 
 With Blindsquare this should not matter because both of it's map resources 
 are globally available.
 
 IMO there is market  and need for blind-specific navigation applications. 
 Reason is very simple: sighted has only to look the visual map to get 
 information. For us there should be either quick commands to get needed 
 information or let the application babble all the time.
 
 Personally i prefer the former approach.

 Yes, this is part of what I am talking about. The blindness specific GPS 
 apps are primarily focused on US, Canada, and UK.
 
 Apple Maps, Google Maps, and general market GPS apps cover many more 
 countries.
 
 With the blindness focussed apps, one pays significantly more for 
 significantly less.

 announces addresses which it does in long intervals, that is BS is mostly 
 silent when i need it, but when i don?t need it, it blabbers on endlessly 
 sometimes about addresses or streets i?ve already passed. Filtering does 
 nothing it only makes BS even more quiet. I?m sorry and i probably will be 
 flamed to bits for what i have said here, but i don?t understand the hype

 am in contact with the developer to see if a fix can be made to this.

Google Docs: How accessible is it?

2013-10-21 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Folks,

Earlier this afternoon I read an article recommending to use Google Docs. My 
question is: How accessible is Google Docs with Voiceover? I'm hoping that if 
it is I will be able to use it to open Excel documents there. What are other 
people thoughts on this. 

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Eileen

Restoring From THE Cloud

2013-10-18 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

I am posting a new thread for clarification. It is my understanding that if one 
chooses to restore from the cloud that the apps placed on the new device will 
be the current version of an app. First, Is this true? And, if one wants 
certain apps to be an older versions that one should restore from iTunes. 
Further explanation of this would be terrific, as I will be purchasing a new 
phone in the near future.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Eileen

Re: Restoring From THE Cloud

2013-10-18 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi,

Thanks for clarifying this for me. That's what I thought. The reason that I 
posted this is that there is a recent post in using the cloud to restore a new 
iDevice, whatever it is using iCloud. Others need to be clear that the current 
version of an app will be placed on the new device and that some apps become 
broken when a new version is released. I just wanted others to know this before 
using the cloud.

Thanks.

Hi Chris and All,

Okay. When I connect my iPhone to the computer iTunes opens and when I am in my 
device, I have a choice to back it up to the cloud or manually. Are you saying 
that if this phone wasn't setup from the get go that I couldn't back it up to 
the cloud through iTunes at a later point in time? I usually only back up 
manually to the computer. What advantages would I have to also back the phone 
up to the cloud?

Thanks.

Re: Changing credit card in ITunes

2013-10-18 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

Yes, you can change your account card from the phone. Here is how I do it:

1. Open the app store from the home page.
2. at the bottom, tap on features tab.
3. I use a 4 finger tap to bring focus to the bottom of the screen and then 
flick from right to left until I hear apple ID and my name. Tap on that.
4. Tap on view my account.
5. You will be asked for your password.
6. The next screen will be a button labeled payment. Tap on it. Now you just 
need to change the credit card info. I just did this recently. You will receive 
an email confirming if you were the one that made the change from Apple. HTH.

Discrepency Between Home Screen App Updates And What's Reported In The App

2013-10-17 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello List,

I thought I would mention this, as it has been happening more with my iPhone 4. 
When I slide my finger on the home screen to locate the App Store app, it 
states a much higher number of updates in the app store. The discrepency is 
about 5-6 numbers off when I access the update tab in the App Store app. I am 
running still iOS 6.1.2, so I'm not sure if this is havvening to others who 
have upgraded to iOS 7. Is there a way to calibrate the difference between what 
is listed on the home screen and what is announced after the App Store is 
opened? I am just curious. It's not a big deal, but I am obtaining false info 
from the home screen page.

Thanks.

Best,
Eileen

Thanks for taking the time to check this out. I didn't think to check all of my

 Hello all,
 What you say Wayne is true.
 I am still running iOS 6.  I noticed that I always had the number 8 beside 
 the App Store on my home screen, but when I go into the app store to do an 
 update, it would say all of my apps are up to date.
 So I decided to do some investigating.
 
 I went into the purchased area in the app store, and started going through 
 all of the apps I have purchased.  Sometimes I would come to one which had an 
 update button.  When I double tapped on it, it would give me a pop up screen, 
 and it informed me that I was not able to download this update since I was 
 not running iOS 7.
 
 It seems that some developers have chosen to restrict their updates to those 
 just running iOS 7.  There could be a very good reason for this, I am not 
 sure.
 But nevertheless, for those who are still running iOS 6, if a number appears 
 beside your app store on your home screen, but when you check, all apps are 
 up to date, then do not worry, now you know why.

 I have read of others on lis that say the difference in numbers may be
 from some updates being for iOS 7 compatibility, and when you bring up
 the updates tab, it sees that you don't run iOS 7. So as a result you
 see a lower number. If true, I don't know if there is a good way to
 fix this, other than you updating to iOS 7 that is.

Re: reading kindle books

2013-10-16 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Patty,

If you see the Home button in the upper left hand corner, double tap on it. If 
not, open the Kindle menu with a single finger double tap and then find the 
Home button in the upper left hand corner. Once the home Kindle screen is 
opened, in the bottom doc the second tab from the lower left hand corner is the 
settings tab. Double tap on it. I checked my settings for automatic page 
turning and it is toggled off. I'm not sure if this applies to the Focus Blue, 
but with my Braille Note I need to perform a pass through gesture of pressing 
ddots 4-5-6 and enter together before using dots 2-4-6 with the space bar. What 
about using a 3 finger swipe from right to left to turn the page? HTH.

 wouldn't need it turned on.
 Even so, I am using an older  focus 40 Braille display and can't seem to turn

 So how do I turn pages, and do I need to change that setting to on, and how

 It's not showing up in Menus.
 Any ideas, I'm probably missing the obvious but I do that sometimes, sigh.

BARD: Autonatically Rereading A Previous Article In A Magazine

2013-10-13 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

I was reading a magazine with BARD this morning and had a funny thing happen 
twice within the magazine. A previous article already read began to play again 
out of order. The only fix I could think of real quick was to pause the audio, 
and press the next button. Has anyone experience this while reading a book or 
magazine with the app?. I'm just curious to know if this is a bug that NLS 
should know about. 

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Eileen

Re: Braille commands for VoiceOver

Hi Alex,

I'm glad I was able to give you the right instructions. I just downloaded them 
last week to the Air. I needed to brush up on the commands myself, as I haven't 
used the Braille Note as a braille display in a while. Glad I was able to help.

Have fun using it as a display.

Re: How can I track my iPhone afte I has been stolen?

2013-10-08 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

I'm so sorry that this happened to you. The advise that Sieghard gave in going 
to the police is wise. Last year, my younger son was held up in San Francisco 
at gun point to his head. Of course, they only wanted the phone and any other 
electrnic devices. Luckily, he only had the phone. 

Sieghard and all, can't you wipe the phone clean through Find My Phone app? I 
guess this would not allow the chance to find it through the app though. Well, 
I guess this brings me back to reality and think hard about getting a new 
phone. Please keep us in the loop as far as the outcome.

Best,
Eileen

Find My Phone app: A Must Have

2013-10-08 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

The app find My Phone does need to be downloaded onto the phone. I am not 
sure of all of the procedures, but it was very simple to set up. Also, there is 
another app call find My Friends. It was recommended to install this app and 
to have all phones in the family, plus friends invited. This way you can 
immediately start tracking a stolen phone. In my son's case. he stated that 
there wasn't much battery left on it, so I had a small window to work with. I 
really need to check to see if all of my info is current and update it if need 
be. HTH.

Re: How can I track my iPhone afte I has been stolen?

2013-10-08 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi, 

Earlier, I suggested to  also install find My Friends and add whoever you 
know and trust that has an iPhone. In the family, I have several that I can 
contact just in case this does happen to me. I believe that with Find My 
Friend, it will give an address to pinpoint where it is. Someone else can 
chime in if I am incorrect.

 Hi,
 I have used Find my iPhone.  On the device that you want to be able to
 locate, just turn on Find my iPhone in the settings.  You do not have to
 have the Find my iPhone app on the device.  When you want to find it,
 install the Find my iPhone app on a IOS device.  When you run the app, it
 will ask for Apple ID credentials.  Use the credentials of the Apple ID of
 the device that you want to locate.  It will find the device.  If more than
 one device uses that Apple ID, it will ask which one that you want.  You can
 then track the device, have it play a sound, etcetera.  This works for iPod
 Touches and iPads as well.  It has come in handy when my kids leave their
 iPod touches under the couch cushions and such.

I am reviewing David Woodbridge' podcast on the Kindle. I have a question or I

the web address to open the URL to purchase books. However, I can't get this to 
work. Can someone give me directions on how to accomplish this? It would be 
nice to access the website from the app itself.

Re: Awesome Skype update - touch typing now works on the DialPad

Hi Sieghard,

 Hello List,
  
 There is a Skype update this morning, version 4.13. Here is what is listed as 
 What’s New:
  
 A refreshed look and feel for iOS 7
 Accessibility improvements
 General fixes and speed improvements
  
 I installed the update and one of the first things I usually make sure of is 
 to check if the DialPad works properly. To my delight it is now possible to 
 dial a phone number in Skype using touch typing just as you can do in the 
 Phone App. This has never worked before and, for that matter, is not working 
 in other VoIP app I have tried.
 If you dial a wrong number and touch delete it also works as a touch typing 
 key, but it does ntot speak the number you just deleted, it just makes a 
 click so there is still room for improvement and I’ll send a message for sure 
 to point out some of these things, but also to thank them for the great 
 accessibility which has been part of Skype now for some time and apparently 
 continues to be a focus for them.
  
 I did, however, also test the DialPad during a call by calling my credit card 
 company and here one still has to double or split tap the numbers. Hopefully 
 touch typing will also be implemented here in a future update as it would 
 certainly make entering numbers easier and faster.
  
 Apart from that I have not noticed any other issues whatsoever. You can also 
 use the flick up or down gesture (Action Rotor) to delete entries in the 
 Recent tab, e.g. a phone call or text chat.
  
  
 Regards,
 Sieghard

 I ordered the 5s 64 gb in the gray color.
  
 She told me to allow 21 to 28 business days, but then, said many people were 
 getting them within two weeks.
  
 I hope I am going to have enough sense to use the 5s.  smile
  
 I had thought about trading in my iPhone 4, as it is in excellent condition, 
 but have decided to keep it as a back up, just in case.

Re: Braille commands for VoiceOver

2013-10-07 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Alex,

I was trying to go to Humanware's site to  give you all of the links to enter 
on. However, I don't have access to my PC IE and I'm not well verse with Safari 
on my Air yet. This is what I can remember:

1. go to humanware.com and enter on support.
2. The first heading is a list of products. Enter on Braille Note Apex.
3. This is where I'm not sure of the next link to enter on. I think it may be 
manuals/ tutorials, but it could be downloads. You are looking for a link that 
states Msing The Braille Note As A Braille Display.
I have the file on my Mac if you can't find it. Let me know and I can try to 
send it to you off line.

Hi Cara,

Thanks for the explanation. I'll take a look, as I am one of those who want to 
keep the older phone on 1.6.2. It would be nice to get back 3 GB on this phone. 
Luckily, I still have plenty of storage. 

Thanks again for supplying the link in your message.

 whether this will work but I thought I'd just put it out there for people.

Re: Pairing a braille note apex with an iPhone

2013-10-06 Thread Eileens Misrahi

Hi Alex,

I thought I would chime in with some tips on doing this. 
1. I place the typing mode in standard in order to perform a split double tap 
to get the four zeros in quickly.
2. The pair button is in the upper right hand corner just under the battery 
percentage. I line myself up with my right index finger before tapping on the 
pair button. 

It usually takes only 1-2 tries to get the Apex paired. Good luck.

Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.

2013-10-02 Thread Eileens Misrahi
HELLO All,

When viewing this thread, I realized that only my name was pasted to it. So 
here goes again. When all of the noise about this supposed gliche started to 
circulate, everyone was afraid to charge their phone or plug it in to the 
computer of feaar that iOS 7 would upgrade one's device. Fortunately, this is 
not the case. Just think about what kind of trouble Apple would be in if iOS 7 
was automatically installed on the device.

Just yesterday, I plugged my iPhone 4 into the computer. I received the usual 
popup that iTunes will give when there is an upgrade. Of course, I press 
thecancel button and I was placed in the main screen of iTunes with no harm 
done. What surprise me more was that that this activated the popup on the 
phone. I was given 2 options: to download or to cancel. You can guess what I 
tapped on. Raul is correct that this feature has been on the iOS platform for a 
while andon this phone since 6.1.2 because I have been on the fence about 
jailbreaking as soon as I replace it with a new one. Well, it's taken so long 
that it's part of the settings announcement. So for those who are getting 
stressed out about this, just relax. No one is forcing you to upgrade. Apple 
can't afford anymore litigation and bad publicity. JMO.

My husband updated his phone, so this question is for him. In iOS 6, one could 
check their cellular data useage by opening settings, general, usage, and then 
the cellular button would be at the bottom for one to click on. In iOS 7, where 
would one find this setting to get this info.

Re: Rearranges apps on pages

Hello,

I just want to add something that helps me when moving apps. I move one of the 
apps out of my doc. I then move one of the apps into the doc at that position. 
It's usually the last item for ease of locating it. Now, I find the page where 
I want to place the app or the page where the folder is located. I usually use 
the picker to do this. I then do a double tap and hold and move the app to the 
position or folder I want it in. This is the fastest way I have found for 
myself. HTH.

Re: Want to Downgrade to IOS6

Hello,

I have learned my lesson with other devices not to be the first on the block. 
That's why I am having others take iOS 7 for the test drive. I am still using 
6.1.2 and I'm not upgrading yet, nor getting an iPhone 5s yet. I'm waiting for 
Apple to release an update to fix all of the bugs reported on this list.

 Hi,
 Yes, I did think about waiting for a while before upgrading.  I guess I
 should have.  However, I just couldn't resist taking IOS7 for a test drive.
 Apparently, if you test drive it then you keep it.  It isn't that big a
 deal.  I'm sure that they will sort out the bugs in a later update.  In the
 meantime, I can live with it.  However, I would caution others to think
 about it before upgrading.  There are several Voice Over bugs introduced in
 IOS7 (described in some detail on Applevis) and, while I can live with them,
 they can be annoying.  Also, I find my 4s to be pretty sluggish as compared
 to when I was running IOS 5 and 6.  I did turn on reduced motion and it
 didn't help.  Anyway, like I said, not a huge deal but something to think
 about if you haven't yet upgraded.

 No it won't and Apple has stopped signing iOS 6 so downgrading is no longer
 an option. In future perhaps wait a while before upgrading. But I appreciate
 many of you including myself upgrade to join the crowd only for some of us
 to be disappointed. This is Apple's own policy and not a technical one.

 Hi,
 
 I think that I would like to downgrade back to IOS6.  I always do IOS 
 upgrades through iTunes so that I have a backup on my computer.  If I 
 restore my backup from just before the upgrade, will it restore the 
 operating system back to IOS6?

Re: Gifting An App From The iPhone Revisited

2013-09-23 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Chris,

Thanks for the response. I thought I could check on it before he left for work, 
but he decided to push the button for the iOS 7 upgrade. He is sighted, so it 
should be okay. I'll need to check on the gifted app later on this afternoon. 
However, with all of the upgrading, the Apple servers must be overloaded and 
slow.

searched for it and opened it to the point of pressing the buy button. Where do 
I find the gift button to gift the app? Any suggestions is most welcomed, as I 
am the one who has the gift card tied to my account.

Hi Alan,

I'm sorry to say that flicking to the right after finding the buy button didn't 
reveal a gift button. I tried to  single finger double tap, heard the chime, 
but couldn't flick to the right to find it either. If you or others have 
different methods to try, I am gainm. 

Thanks for your suggestion. I might try from the PC or Mac.

Re: Finding The Gift Button In The App Store On The Phone

2013-09-22 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello All,

I decided to Google this and find out where that darn gift button went to. 
Chris, you are exactly correct. When one finds the app in the search list, one 
needs to tap on it. The share button is located right after the search back 
button. Tap on share and the gift button is just above the cancel button from 
the bottom. One just needs to follow the prompts and finally gift the app. This 
is not straight forward as it once was a long time ago. I hope this explanation 
will assist others who decide to gift an app in the future.

Best,
Eileen

 open the email on your phone, then go to the attachment, it will ask you

Voice Dream Help With Voices and Bookshare

2013-09-18 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello folks,

When I read that Voice Dream would have problems with iOS 7, I decided to 
uninstall it. Now, I have some questions about the paid voices and Bookshare. 
When I reopened the app, I went through the setup process. In the past, I had 2 
additional voices. Do I go through the process and purchase them all over and 
tap on the buy button again? When I went into the add menu, Bookshare was not 
listed. I was fortunate when I first purchase this app that Bookshare was 
included. How do I get this back into the add menu without purchasing it again 
and where do I go to look for it? 

Thanks for your help.

Hi Richard,

Thanks for the help. It worked just fine and I have the one voice that I added 
to  the app a while ago. Bookshare is now listed, but when I went back into my 
history, it was wiped clean. That's okay because there were only a handful of 
items in it. It's not a big deal to download them again. 

Thanks again.

 Hi,
 Open Voice Dream and double tap on settings.
 Flick until you get to BookShare and activate it with your login info.
 Then, go to manage my voices and you should find a restore voices button, or 
 something like that.

Re: NoteMaster?

2013-09-17 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Rob,

CHRIS is correct that you need to tap on new note. Once this screen opens, 
there will be 2 edit fields. The first one is to place a title in for your 
note. Under that, there will be another text field. That's where you will place 
the note. Also in settings, you can change the font type face and size. My font 
is set to Ariel at 12 pt. HTH.

Best,
Eileen

Re: Text Grabber: Is it broken?

hi Chuck,

When I was in the history menu, and flicked left, I didn't hear VO announce a 
checkbox. Is this just a given and that we are suppose to assume this? I will 
check this out a little later when I have some time. Thanks for pointing this 
out. Oh by the way, I use my clipboard fairly frequently with MBraille, so I 
don't want to make an error to close out Text Grabber that way. 

Thanks.

 Hello Folks,
 
 This is the first time I am using Text Grabber after the last update. At 
 first, I thought nothing had changed until I opened the menu button for 
 sharing and the history to delete the current scans. Here is what I found 
 and I was wondering if others had a similar experience:
 
 1. When opening a button labeled menu, the options to share on tweeter, 
 Facebook, mail, and etc., the only way I could tap on the close menu was to 
 do a triple click to turn off VO, perform the tap gesture and then turn VO 
 back on. This did the trick, but less aessible.
 
 2. in the history, in order to delete a recently scanned OCR, the edit 
 button is tapped on, the delete button is located to the left (swipe) of the 
 scanned title. Once the delete button is tapped on, VO doesn't announce to 
 confirm the deletion button. Instead, there is another delete button above 
 the home button. That said and tapped on will bring one out of this page and 
 the edit button will need to be tapped on to begin the process all over. 
 Hence, one can't continue directly from this interface to perform multiple 
 deletions. 
 
 I was wondering if others have seen this behavior with Text Grabber. I'm not 
 sure if my experiences are related to an older iPhone 4. I will drop the 
 developers an email concerning my finding and will report back. I use this 
 app extensively with my StandScan Pro for OCR.

Re: Text Grabber: Is it broken?

2013-09-16 Thread Eileens Misrahi
 hello Chuck,

Thanks for confirming this. In the morning when I have a clear head, I will 
compose an email to the developers. At first, I thought I was missing something 
in the history menu, but I guess not if you are getting something similar to my 
observation. In the previous version, you didn't have the option to select more 
than one scan, but the delete button was there with a confirmation screen that 
followed it. Well, I haven't decided if I will place this on my roll back app 
list until it is fixed. The list is starting to grow quickly. Unfortunately, 
the update description before pressing that button didn't state if there were 
any UI enhancements. I guess we all live and learn.

I'll take care of this tomorrow.

Cheers,
Eileen

 The problem is, if you flick right again it really doesn't tell you what's

Re: Fleksy update.

2013-09-15 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Sieghard,

That's where MBraille has Fleksey beat. If I have text someone like my son, I 
know I will receive something back real quick. Hence, I just keep MBraille 
open, hear what he has to say and then reply back immediately with MBraille. At 
this point, I haven't gone out of the app and back into it. Also, in MBraille, 
it's not hard to use the dot SMS command to  open the text message native app 
on the phone. True, it would be nice if these third party text processing apps 
could be intergrated into the iOS, but Apple won't allow this for a long time 
to come. So, we should be thankful for what we have now, but not to stop trying 
to improve the accessibility of our iOS devices. JMO.

 Hi Chris,
 
 While the integration offered by the apps may be as good as it gets, I beg
 to differ about these apps getting close to true integration. It is still a
 pain in the neck when I am already in an app like when I get a mail message
 or text message or even somewhere I have to enter a search term to have to
 leave the app, load Fleksy, type my text, go back to the other app and paste
 it. This is a far cry from just having the Fleksy keyboard pop up where I
 can quickly type away. I am actually in favour of Apple's strict policy on
 sandboxing since it provides a much safer environment, but it would be nice
 if there was a way form some of these things to be integrated on the system
 level.

 I honestly don't see this a big deal now. Fleksy and another app 
 MBraille provides near true integration thanks to support for the 
 clipboard and especialy with MBraille support for third party apps 
 through use of dot commands. While true integration is nice I can't see 
 Apple doing this any time soon but we can keep trying and for now dreaming.

 No, Apple does not give developers this level of access to iOS and nothing

 keyboards still have to run independently as apps and you have to use copy

Finger Position On MBraille Keyboard

2013-09-14 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

With MBraille, I have changed my settings to the away layout mode and have 
changed or toggled on switch dots 1-4 and 3-6. This way when the phone's screen 
is facing away from you, your ring fingers are touching dots 1-4, the middle 
fingers touching dots 2-5, and the index fingers touching dots 3-6. Once you 
perfect the learning curve, I don't think you will look back. This app is 
awesome and I rarely use the native keyboard on the phone to do any text input. 
HTH.

Text Qrabber Upgrade: Is it still accessible for us?

Hello Folks,

I just saw an update for Text Grabber. Although it states that there is full 
support for the iPads, it stated that there is an entirely new interface. I was 
wondering if anyone on the list has performed the update and if Text Grabber is 
still accessible to VO. Any information on this would be great before 
performing the upgrade.

Thanks in advance.

Although it is necessary to lock the layout mode in the away position, I have

 With respect, it is the table mode that causes the most trouble.  I shall

 reach easily.  Table mode has the dot buttons laid out at an angle, that is 
 what throws folk.
 
 You need to do a 3finger swipe left to go to the main menu, find and tap the 
 settings button, and maybe turn off Auto, as that keep swapping mode as you 
 move your phone about.
 
 The iPad version lines up all dot buttons along an edge, long edge in 
 landscape and short edge, bottom edge by the Home button, in portrait. In 
 those cases,  you just have to get the spacing right, the short edge is 
 preferred to save having to spread the fingers so far.
 
 I use the iPhone, and locked to the Away mode, as that is the most straight

Re: Setting up Calendar I'm mBraille

2013-08-31 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Keith and All,

I just tested the .calendar entry using the 12 o'clock format. First, when 
brailleing the date, I used dashes between the numbers. for the time, I wrote 
it like this 11:00 AM When I swiped down, it was entered into the native 
calendar app. Here is an example:

.calendar test 9-1-13 11:0 AM HTH. Eileen

 Hi,
 Are you putting a hyphen between the numbers?
 Also, I get it to work for the time by using the 24 hour format, otherwise
 it just ignores what I did.

 Subject: Setting up Calendar I'm mBraille
 
 Hello, all. I am experiencing a serious calendar issue imraille. I am
 setting up the dates and times in U.S. format, mmddyy 2 pm. When I swipe
 down to enter the appointment, I get an error message about not being able
 to get the starting time. 
 
 I noticed this before, but an upgrade fixed it. Now, with the latest
 upgrade, it appears to be a problem again.
 
 
 I use the program extensively, so am looking for a quick solution. Has
 anyone else noticed this problem? Does anyone have an idea how this can be
 fixed?

Re: Emoticons For Text Messages

2013-08-25 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello Chuck and and Sieghard,

Thanks for the explanation on where to  the Emoticon keyboard. I was close, but 
no cigar. I couldn't remember the name of the keyboard to add.  I was trying to 
instruct my sighted husband on how to get this on his iPhone 5. Task completed. 

Thanks again.

 Hi Eileen,
 
 Best way to get Emoticons is to add the Emoji keyboard to your list of
 available keyboards. Do this as follows:
 
 Go to Settings, General, Keyboards, then find emoji under e in the
 alphabetical listing of keyboards and select it.
 
 Now, when ever the virtual keyboard comes on the screen, you have a button
 between Dictate and More numbers which allows you to switch between the
 regular English US keyboard and the Emoji keyboard. On the Emoji keyboard
 you have several tabs along the bottom which give you a ton of Emoticons.
 
 If you dictate a text message with SIRI and just want to insert or add a
 quick simple emoticon like a smiley face, you can just tell SIRI smiley
 face after you finish dictating your text message and it will put it in.
 
 
 Regards,
 Sieghard

Re: M-Braille

2013-08-23 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hi Carol,
When I first got my fingers on MBraille, I too was having extreme difficulties 
with it. You may want to try these settings and see which one will work best 
for you. 
1. You can keep the v shape alignment, but change the dot or finger position by 
going into the settings and changing dots 1-4 and 3-6 by toggling on the option 
with a double tap. To open settings, do a 3 finger swipe either right to  left 
or vise versa. This option is under the tutorial option somewhere.
2. This is my setting of choice, even though I have tried the table mode with 
the dots flipped as explained above. Open up the settings menu. Change the dots 
1-4 and 3-6 by toggling it on with a double tap. Next, toggle on the away mode 
in layout and then press okay. Tap on braille kkeyboard and this will bring you 
back to the screen to begin brailleing.
What this does to the cell is when the screen faces away from you in landscape 
mode the ring fingers are for dots 1-4, the middle fingers for dots 2-5, and 
the index fingers for dots 3-6. This is the only setting that makes sense to me 
and allows me to use this app with speed and confidence. HTH. 

If you have any further questions, you can write me off list. I believe that 
once you get the hang of using MBraille, it will be your only choice for word 
processing on the phone.

Best,
Eileen

 Hi all,
 
 Although I love BrailleTouch, I decided to buy M-Braille, being sure that I 
 would get used to it and enjoy its features!
 
 However, I have so far been disappointed And unsuccessful in using it as I 
 just have not got used to the fingering. Perhaps it's because I'm used to 
 BrailleTouch, where the fingers are spread less and are in straight lines.
 
 Am I missing the obvious? Can I change the fingering, or more important, the 
 spacing between the fingering? This would make it useable for me! I just 
 can't get on with it the way that it is.
 
 Any advice would be most welcome, thanks!

 from the top of the screen for a while, and you'll come to an element called 
 Settings. It isn't a button or anything, but you can double-tap on it. 
 After that, go to where it says Dropbox; you should be able to configure 
 everything from there. One thing I will warn you about is that you might come 
 to a weird screen if you left the and reopened it later. The screen has a lot 
 of unrecognized elements, but you can get back to the screen that has the

 Hi,
 I downloaded Four Down yesterday and have been having lots of fun with it.  
 I've never been able to do crossword puzzles before, though when I've 
 visited my family I've helped them out with a few, so it's nice to be able 
 to do one myself for a change.  It's definitely addicting and the puzzles 
 are challenging, so have a dictionary and thesaurus handy just in case.  If 
 you're into crossword puzzles, this one's a must.  .

 Subject: Four Down crossword app now available for iPhone, from the developer
 
 Hi,
  
 Some while back, there was discussion on this list of a crossword app for 
 iPad called Four Down. It was not available for iPhone at the time. I 
 contacted the developer, as did other blind users, asking for an iPhone 
 version. Tonight, the developer let me know the app has been made universal. 
 It’s $0.99 in the US store.
  
 I just downloaded it, but haven’t played with it. See Dev’s comments below. 
 There’s a link to the iTunes store. Let him know what you think and/or leave 
 areview.
  
 Best, Keith

 iPhone, if possible
  
 Hi Keith,
  
 Thanks again for getting in touch about an iPhone version of Four Down. I'm 
 really pleased to be able to tell you that it's now available for iPhone 
 too. It should be just as accessible with VoiceOver as the iPad version.
  
 Thanks for encouraging me to develop an iPhone version. You can find it on 
 iTunes here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/four-down/id655212651?mt=8
  
 If you decide to buy Four Down, I hope you enjoy it and, if you have any 
 feedback or suggestions for  improvements, I'd love to hear them.
  
 All the best,
 Andy

 Hi Keith,
  
 Thanks for getting in touch.
  
 A few people have asked for an iPhone version now so I'm going to start 
 working on it and see how it pans out. No promises at this stage, but I've 
 had a few ideas so I'm hopeful.
  
 I'll let you know if Four Down does make it to iPhone.
  
 Thanks again,
 Andy

Re: OCR app

2013-08-15 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,
If I am using the iPhone 4 only, my preferred OCR app is Text Detector. The 
app is used in landscape mode and I use it to sort the mail. 
I also have a StandScan Pro that can be purchased from www.standscan.com. The 
pro version is the one to purchase because it has LED lights that assist in 
capturing the image. With this said, my apps of choice are Tex Grabber and 
Prizmo. With the StandScan Pro and these 2 apps, I am able to get  almost 100'% 
accuracy. HTH.
Best,
Eileen

 Hi list:
  
 Someone asked me to investigate for them any OCR apps that work best with the 
 iPhone and voice over.  So any suggestions?  They are looking for something 
 that could read paper documents such as postal mail.  Thanks.

Office Professional Suite App

2013-08-09 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello List,
I was intrigued with this title Office Professional Suite,. so the only thing 
I would be out is $0.99. It was a little triky to  get started, but once I 
found the button to open a word doc, I used MBraille to compose my text and do 
a copy/paste. There is some editing such as adding bold, underline, and italic, 
and justification of the doc. You can save it as a docx, doc, or txt file. I 
believe folders can be created, but I will need to confirm that. Files can be 
sync to iCloud, so the files are accessible to other iDevices. I haven't tried 
Excel yet, but I am hoping that it too will be accessible. Here is the link if 
you are interested

  Cheers,
Eileen
