Re: Itunes dinging constantly, iPad repeating page number constantly

Syncing the phone manually didn't fix this for me either.  Does anyone
else have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Re: Authentication has new Window

[E.T.]

   I experimented with this but same thing. Maybe it does have to do 
with authenticating something but I did not find anything in Security prefs.


   I use a password to log in. In case that is related.

   Ok here is a question. As it applies to the Mac, what exactly does 
authenticating mean? I do not think I have ever seen a phantom window 
when I press VO f2 f2.

hi,

Upon further investigation, what appears to be going on here is due to
the display sleep setting.  So, in System Prefs, Energy Saver, there
should be sliders for both the computer and the display sleep
settings.  When the display goes to sleep, whatever process is invoked
must cause the Authentication window to be activated.  If in Security,
you've set that to require a password to unlock, then the login screen
is made the active process, but if that is not set, the Authentication
window is still invoked, thus VO says its piece.  You could get around
this by setting the Display sleep to be a longer interval.  I would
have thought that setting either the App verbosity or the Window
verbosity to "Low" would limit this announcement, but it did not.
I'll investigate a little more and see if I can figure out something
for you.

Re: Authentication has new Window

[E.T.]

   What do you mean by making the screen saver longer? Since I do not 
want my Mac to sleep, if I will be away from it for a period of time, I 
invoke the screen saver. Whatever changed happened between Sierra 
updates I am pretty sure. Also hear this pesky message twice when I cold 
boot.


   Disabling cursor tracking is nice. How to apply this so tracking 
remains on while reducing the repetition. Hmmm.

I know what you mean by the first, and I believe folks indicated that if

The second issue I have experienced and played with a bit but didn't
figure out. What I did notice is that if you turn off cursor tracking
with VO F3 then it only speaks once. I wonder if there is an option to
speak the item with focus at a different speed or pitch? I rarely go to
the desktop anymore now that folders that are in the dock work better
with VoiceOver.

Jonathan,
  Not sure which element is involved. At some point, in between
updates, when I invoked the screensaver, VO would announce
"Screensaver something". Then something changed and now announces
"Authentication has new Window".

  Another issue that no one seems to have seen is, every time I close
Finder, VO announces the item in focus on the desktop not once but 3
times.

  I exported the VO settings in VO Utility then restored to defaults.
No change. I sure do not want to do a third clean install.

Re: Authentication has new Window

[Jonathan Cohn]

I know what you mean by the first, and I believe folks indicated that if you 
make the screen saver features very long that it will go away.

The second issue I have experienced and played with a bit but didn't figure 
out. What I did notice is that if you turn off cursor tracking with VO F3 then 
it only speaks once. I wonder if there is an option to speak the item with 
focus at a different speed or pitch? I rarely go to the desktop anymore now 
that folders that are in the dock work better with VoiceOver. 

Best wishes,

Jonathan

Re: Authentication has new Window

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi Matthew,

Hmmm.  Interesting.  When I set my display to sleep after one minute, the 
announcement came after one minute.  When I set it for five minutes, it took 
five before announcing.  I did not set it to never though.

Later...

Re: Authentication has new Window

[Tim Kilburn]

hi,

Upon further investigation, what appears to be going on here is due to the 
display sleep setting.  So, in System Prefs, Energy Saver, there should be 
sliders for both the computer and the display sleep settings.  When the display 
goes to sleep, whatever process is invoked must cause the Authentication window 
to be activated.  If in Security, you've set that to require a password to 
unlock, then the login screen is made the active process, but if that is not 
set, the Authentication window is still invoked, thus VO says its piece.  You 
could get around this by setting the Display sleep to be a longer interval.  I 
would have thought that setting either the App verbosity or the Window 
verbosity to "Low" would limit this announcement, but it did not.  I'll 
investigate a little more and see if I can figure out something for you.

Later...

Re: Authentication has new Window

Hi ET.
I'm getting the same thing on my mac book air.
If for instance I'm reading a pdf and step away for a minute the 
"Authentication has new Window" comes up and blows away my position where I was 
reading!
Half to do some digging!
Talk soon

Re: Authentication has new Window

[E.T.]

Jonathan,
   Not sure which element is involved. At some point, in between 
updates, when I invoked the screensaver, VO would announce "Screensaver 
something". Then something changed and now announces "Authentication has 
new Window".


   Another issue that no one seems to have seen is, every time I close 
Finder, VO announces the item in focus on the desktop not once but 3 times.


   I exported the VO settings in VO Utility then restored to defaults. 
No change. I sure do not want to do a third clean install.


From E.T.'s Keyboard. . .
  I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

Re: Mac and Itunes

[Jonathan Cohn]

Terry,

I doubt you have much choice as to specific versions of iTunes to use. I 
believe that Apple Music came out with Yosemite, and for some folks this was a 
step back in accessibility since iTunes tries to do too much. I believe that 
the latest version of iTunes is a bit easier to use then the first ones that 
support Apple Music.


Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Re: Small email problem

[Jonathan Cohn]

If you need finer control over notifications, it is possible to have an 
AppleScript run for each incoming message. I haven't played with this for a 
while, but some possible actions could be:

1. Play a different sound for different people sending you a message.
2. Automatically extracting attachments and placing them in a specific folder 
(hm could all PDF's somehow get migrated to VoiceStream on my phone?)
3. There is a kill file example that is supposed to delete all messages 
associated with a thread, that Apple provided. I looked at this a few years 
back and was unable to get everything in it to work, but I expect it could 
still be possible.)


Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Re: Small email problem

[Matthew Dierckens]

Hi David and Larry,
An easier way to do this is to only have notifications turned on for inbox only 
or VIP emails. Go to mail preferences with command comma and make sure you're 
in the general button. There's an item called mail notifications and you can 
set it to inbox only, VIP, contacts, today, all mailboxes or any other folders 
that you have set up.
HTH.

God bless.

Re: earpods

[David Chittenden]

After being frustrated about the same thing, I realised that, when I have 
multiple devices active at the same time, there is probably no way that the 
AirPods can know automatically which device I want them to connect to at any 
given time. For example, I currently have one iPhone on speakerphone with my 
partner, whilst my other iPhone is connected to my AirPods and reading my 
email. If the AirPod was doing it automatically, it should be connecting to my 
phone call as that is the priority connection.

Kind regards,

RE: Mac and Itunes

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Terri,

 Welcome to the world of mac technology and apple products.

 As for your question,

 Very easy one to answer as itunes is a built in application to the apple OSX 
version 
You can either have a look on the Dock using your ctrl and alt (option) keys 
and the letter d to open the doc and then arrow left to find itunes or hold 
down command key (1 left of the space bar plus shift and a to open the 
applications folder and then press the letter I to go to the first item 
starting with that letter when you find itunes command and o will start itunes 
or any other highlighted application or go to the spotlight search by holding 
down the command key and pressing space bar then typing in itunes 

Hope this helps with a start to your mac world of learning,

Subject: Mac and Itunes

Hello everyone,


A while back, I joined this list and mentioned I was getting an older Macbook. 
I don't know the model of it, or anything like that. I did get it, but I 
haven't started using it. I wanted to wait until I got moved, to get started 
with it.

I will admit, I have always wanted a Mac, but I don't know the first thing 
about them!

The laptop runs Yosemite.


I was wondering, because this is a Mac, would Itunes work wonderfully with it?

I sure know that it doesn't with my windows Laptop, and I only use it if I 
absolutely have to do so!

If ITunes does work that well, which version might be best for the Mac running 
Yosemite?


Any thoughts, or help would be much appreciated.


Thank you!


Terri

RE: earpods

[Simon Fogarty]

HI David,

Thanks for this I just gave it a try and yes the pods connect to my watch if 
the phone is out of reach or as I tried turned off.

Only problem with that really is that if I get a phone call and wish to answer 
it through my  watch then the pods don’t get the audio as the phone is on.

As for connecting the earpods manually through Bluetooth on a secondary device 
such as the watch or an iPad,

That’s not the way apple have said they should be working,
The pods should be connected to all devices signed in with the same iCloud 
account details.
Ok so the pods are seen by each device but they aren’t actually connected until 
  they are manually connected

As for removing and resetting up the pods  yeah tried it and got the same 
situation,


Can’t say I’m overly impressed thus far.

The charge case and the sound quality are great, the size I definitely like  
but the device syncing is a bit of a failure so far.

First, the Airpods connect with the Apple Watch, but they do not actually 
receive sound from it unless the iPhone is out of range.

Second, once the AirPods are paired with the Apple Device, they are 
automatically paired to all devices on the account. However, it is necessary to 
open the device, open bluetooth, and connect to the AirPods to have the AirPods 
work with that particular device at that time. If only one device, the AirPods 
are always active with said device save when disconnected.

The AirPods must be in the ear in order to be active. I find that this is 
sometimes a little tricky, especially on the right ear. Occasionally, I put in 
the left ear, followed by the right ear, and then wait for the right pod to 
realise it is in the ear and connect. Some people are reporting similar 
difficulties. The fix is to factory reset the AirPods and start over. As this 
does not happen to me too often, I have not performed the factory reset yet.

Apparently, the base is the primary Bluetooth controller. It creates the 
initial pairing. Then, each AirPod has the ability to be primary. The first 
AirPod to be placed in an ear becomes primary and handles the audio signal. If 
that AirPod is removed, control is passed to the other Pod.

Kind regards,

Hi Daniel,

Interesting your saying that.

According to apple accessibility when I spoke to them today,

The pods should be active always once connected to the primary device in my 
case my iPhone 7+

The earpods have been found to not be working with the apple watch as they 
should so apple requested that submitted as a feedback issue via the beta 
feedback tool

So they have noted a problem but it’s still to be worked on.

According to the apple data on line you shouldn’t have to tell the pods that 
you want the audio to play through them it should just happen straight away.

I love my AirPods. When first received, plug them in to charge. After several 
hours, open the case whilst near the iPhone and the option pops up to pair. The 
AirPods fit nicely and stay in my ears. They are slightly smaller than the 
EarPods. Sometimes, the activation requires placing them in the ear a few times

RE: earpods

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Kawal,

 To my knowledge no they are only in white currently like I believe their wired 
earpods 

Something I believe apple have always done with their headphones not sure why 
as I'd prefer black myself and I got told no black at this point.

 Only other thing I can say really is that I'm haiving mixed feelings about 
them,
Siri doesn't seem to want to do volume changing she keeps telling me she can't 
change the volume, yet she is meant to be able to.

 The double tap to activate siri takes a few attempts to get it working and the 
fact they aren't yet synching with my watch is a pain in the ass, but I also 
have to manually connect them each time to my iPad also 
Apple told me today that this is not the way things are meant to happen and are 
taking notice of it saying it's a Bluetooth related issue on the watch and iPad.

I made the suggestion in my feedback that in the next watch  they put the w1 
chip and also in to the next iPad mini version so that the pods sync without 
issues,

 As for the pods 
 I made the suggestion that they put a volume toggle on them somewhere as siri 
didn't work well.

Just a couple of my own thoguhts.

I'll be ordering mine in late February.  Are the Ear pods in black yet as when 
I added mine to bag, it didn't give me any colour.  Also, how do I pay by Apple 
Pay?  I have never paid by Apple pay before as the shops that I go in to do not 
accept Apple Pay but they do contactless but a small amount but not Apple Pay.

I don't get the opportunity to know what to do.  I don't have an Apple watch 
and my card is ready to use Apple Pay.  Should I put my card near to my I phone 
when I'm ready to pay with Apple Pay?  I know you need to press the home button 
twice when the phone is locked.

RE: Fusion still accessible?

[Simon Fogarty]

I second and third that,
I also use virtual box on a daily basis and it is getting better for 
accessibility when setting up a VM in it on your mac,

I’ve just had to do this for a windows 10 and windows 7 machines on an el 
capitan OS installation
I’m yet to try setting up a vm on a Sierra machine.
