RE: Deleting Links from Text Messages

[dm-hill]

Hi Mike,

 

I played with it for a bit, but I could not find a way to delete a link. I 
discovered that in the action menu there is a copy, but it copied the whole 
text and not just the link. And in the action menu there was no cut option. I 
tried “more” in the action menu, but when I used the delete on that menu, it 
wanted to delete the entire message not just the link.

 

If it can be done, I know someone will chime in.

 

Take care and stay safe!

Hi All,

 

Using an SE2020 iPhone, how do I delete a link from a text message in iOS 14.8, 
and or, iOS15.1?  Thanks mooy moocho.

 

 

Stay safe & take care.  Mike.
Just once, I want a username and password prompt to say:  "Close Enough!"

Hi Everyone,

 

When I looked at my email this morning I realized that a lot of old list

3:13 am, I guess eastern time. Did anyone else experience this, or was this a

Thanks for any information.

RE: Voice Clock won't start at my appointed start time.

[dm-hill]

Hi Robin,

 

It does do the quarter hours. The only way I accidentally got it to work is 
that on the setting screen I turned the announce of the quarter hours on and 
off a couple of times. When you hear it chime, you know it is on. That is if it 
is on, it will chime right away. 

 

By the way, I also turned on the clock display. The chiming started working 
after that, but I an not sure if it was turning the display of the clock on or 
the repeated turning the chime on and off.

 

Good Luck!

Take care and stay safe!

hours chimed if it does that. As I said here it's doing a bunch of nothing

Hi.

 

I’m trying to get Voice Clock to work with no stop time. What I mean is I have 
it start at midnight, and it stops at 11:59 p.m., essentially going 24 hours a 
day. When it’s working, it works great. Problem is it stops at the indicated 
time, but it doesn’t start back up. The only way I can get it working is to 
open the app, and it works again until the next night.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Very mysterious! I would try turning off your phone and then back on and also 
unplugging one of the Alexa devices, wait about 30 seconds and plug it back in. 
I am not sure it will work, but it is worth a try.

RE: sounds that aren't playing on my new phone

[dm-hill]

Hi,

 

I have Westminster Chimes Full chiming the hour and half hour on my iPad Air 2, 
but with iOS 15.01 it is not working. I checked in the app store, and there are 
some reviews saying that it does not work in iOS 15. The app hasn’t been 
touched for three years. I am not optimistic about its future. 

 

Richard, out of curiosity, can the Big Ben app chime on the half hour? Does 
anyone know of any other chiming apps that are working in 15?

 

Thanks!

 

Take care and stay safe!

OK, I got BigBen working on my 13 Pro.

There is no customization option with this app.

 

You have to have notifications on, and allow on lock screen, in Notification 
Center, and as Banner, and of course, Sounds on.

Then, it works while the phone is locked and whether Big Ben is in the app 
switcher or not.

This is a new learning curve in iOS 15 that frankly, I could have lived without.

 

See if when you open notification settings, and go down to Big Ben and open it, 
if there isn’t a Customize Notifications button at the very bottom right.

The same with the other one.

This is assuming you have updated Big Ben to the latest update that is fixed 
for iOS 15…

I don’t know about the other one.

 

I turned off notification center and lock screen and just had alert and sound.

 

I have not tried Big Ben on my new phone, as the gonging on the hours takes so 
long and you cannot do much else while it is chiming.

I’ll see if I can confirm it works.

RE: new Seven Little Words

[dm-hill]

Hi Donna,

 

It turns out that the SE 2020 with iOS 15 does have screen recognition. I 
actually ended up using it to get my speech back on in the game after I had 
stupidly turned it off. That was interesting! However, after that I turned off 
the clicks, and the game really became unplayable. Everything I double tapped 
wouldn’t activate. In the end I did have to delete the app and download it 
again.

 

Take care and stay safe!

Janet,

 

If Direct Touch is not on when playing 7 Little Words the game will not work at 
all. No, an iPhone Se 20 does not have screen recognition, which in this case 
is a good thing, being having screen recognition on would make the game 
unplayable. I can't recall- Did I send you a list of gestures used to play 7 
Little words? If not, let me know & I'll send them to you. It may be best to 
delete the game & redownload so that the proper settings are in place when you 
open the app.

 

Donna

 

Hi Donna, would an SE20 have voice recognition on it as I can't find it 
anywhere.  I did as you suggested and still can't get rid of direct touch but 
there  you go.  Janet

Hi,

 

Assuming that Direct Touch is still on per my previous instructions: Close 7 
Little Words from the app switcher, then reopen it. Voiceover should now be 
back on. Use one finger & swipe down to settings & tap to open. Swipe down to 
sound & use one finger & double tap to turn off the sounds. Make sure that you 
are using three fingers & taping only once. Wait a couple seconds between taps 
to toggle between words or characters. Without waiting the tap may be confused 
with the three finger double tap which toggles voiceover speech on & off.

Hi Donna,

 

I am wondering what phone and which iOS version you are using. I really liked 
your solution for when someone accidentally turned off speech in 7 Little 
Words, however, on my iPhone SE 202 running iOS 14.8 and 15 it didn’t work. I 
was sillily adventurous, and I turned off speech in the game. Then I went to 
the app switcher, and while on 7 Little Words I turned the rotor to “direct 
touch” and turned it on. It didn’t restore speech to the game. Unless there is 
something I did wrong, I will have to delete the app and download it again.

 

I did have the most recent update working, and I am getting used to it. 
However, I sure wish you could turn off the infernal clicking. Right now that 
toggle still isn’t working. I am going to write to the developer about that.

 

Thanks for your help!

 

Take care and stay safe!

 Hi everyone, 

 

I actually got it to work! There was an update last night, but it still didn't 
work well, so I reinstalled it. I continued to have problems and discovered 
that Screen Recognition was on. Once I turned that off, it worked pretty well. 
I even got braille output! It puts out the braille as alert messages, so I set 
the Braille alert Message time to 3 seconds. I can't use the display to control 
the game, but I can flick with one hand and read with my other hand on the 
display. The word eye is displayed when the letter i is spoken in a clue, but 
otherwise, it seems to work. It's pretty responsive, and I like being able to 
do a single finger flick up or down to move between the sections of the game. 
I'm so happy that this is playable again!

 

Best,

Anna

Hi Janet,

 

Yes, a sighted person would need to go to setting, and check the box for text 
to speech.

 

By the way, two friends and I did the same thing Because we didn’t have working 
eyes available, we completely deleted the app from our phones and then 
downloaded it again. That brought speech back. If you have purchased any puzzle 
packs you will need to restore those purchases.

 

Take care and stay Safe!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with OCR on a TIF file with multiple pages

[dm-hill]

Yes, it is a victory!! In my version of windows 7 at the hospital, I found
that PDF Creator was there. After adding it to my printers, I was able to
print the tiff files with the pdf creator and then JAWS would conveniently
ask me if I wanted to   OCR. Doing things this way got JAWS to ocr all of
the pages in the files. It was great! 

Have fun!

Thank you both for your help! You have given me some ideas of things to try.

Fernando, I can't remember is there a facility in Windows 7 to print to PDF?
I forgot to mention that the hospital is still using windows 7 machines.

I have found that the JAWSS OCR on files is pretty good, but I struggle with
the output from the OCR on screens or windows. I find that trying to read
that output is messy!

Thanks!

Hi Debby,

This is certainly something that FS should inprove in a future major or
minnor release.
As a workaround, however, you could save the file as PDF by using a virtual
printer, such as the one included with Foxit Reader (this software is
comparably accessible as Adobe Reader and easier to create basic things) or
the one built into Windows 10, called Microsoft Print to PDF.
In my experience, JAWS has no problem recognizing a PDF file with multiple
pages.

Hope it helps!
