Re: cutting the cord pitfalls

2018-04-19 Thread Eric Oyen 
well, it might be time to file a complaint with the FCC, FTC and a few other 
places. Then call AT and inform them that if they refuse to work with you, 
you will take your business elsewhere. At that point, I am sure they will 
connect you to customer loyalty dept and try to convince you to stay on. 
Convince them that the only way you will stay on is if you can get the bundle 
you want that allows you full use of your internet.

oh, by the way, record the whole call so that if they fail to cooperate, you 
can take it to some local news investigator. The last thing AT wants just now 
is negative publicity (they are in talks to acquire another multimedia company).

hope this helps.

Hi guys:

 

Well as you all remember. I decided to cut the cord and only keep my ATT
Uverse Internet. Well, it turns out you only get unlimited Uverse Internet
if you have laland line and tv. If you just have the internet, they cap you.


Well I work from home, so work takes up all my Internet.

They will not let me bundle Directv Now, nor my cell service, which is
through ATT with my Internet to create the bundle.

 

aah, the solution according to the ATT reps is to pay for a land line and
TV.

Re: Question about VoiceOver and words in all capital letters

2018-04-19 Thread E.T. 
   I think VO as it stands, handles this properly. I opened a document 
in TextEdit and entered several acronyms. VO read them as expected, for 
example it reads ACLU as A C L U. There is a setting you might look at 
in VO Utility, Verbosity category, Text tab. It's an option that affects 
how capital letters are handled.

RE: Finding iTunes stupid

2018-04-19 Thread Simon Fogarty 
Hi Tim,

Good thoughts thanks,

Yeah it’s a zip file I download from my router which is a auto sign in config 
and cert related files.

I have to unzip them and then upload through the itunes file share / apps 
feature to the open vpn connect app on my iPad,
It worked a few versions back on my iphone x but for some reason I can’t get it 
to work on the ipad,

Also, it’s not an add button but an open button in itunes which to me is wrong,

I’ll give a try with the suggestions you’ve given and see what happens.

Cheers,


Simon

Hi,

If these are config profiles, try either eMailing them to yourself.  Then 
double tap the attachment to see how it handles opening them.  It usually 
recognizes config profiles and will bring up a bunch of "Are you Sure's" but 
will allow you to open the VPN profile.  Alternatively, did you try using 
iCloud as a location to save the config files?  Once in iCloud Drive, you 
should have access to them from any machine using that same Apple ID and iCloud 
Drive.

So I open itunes,
Find the iPad,
Then scrole down the list of features to find file sharing under info,
Then I go to the list of apps on the iPad
Finding OpenVPN
Then click on add file or add folder
I then find the files to upload to the iPad
Note there are only 3 files here to upload,
Now the crazy side kicks in,

Rather than an add button I can only get an Open button,
And then get multiple files can not be opened at one time.

I’ve tried adding one at a time,or all four at once,
Plus doing the configuration upload through both windows and mac os,

  Does anyone else have any ideas on how to get these 4 files in to the OPNVPN  
connect app on the ipad?

Any info would be appreciated.

Oh and note this configuration files for the open vpn app  have only just been 
downloaded tonight so they are correct files.

It probably does mean that. :) Open the VoiceOver Utility with vo-f8, then make

folx 5

2018-04-19 Thread jeff `greene 
Hi List,
Just wondering if anyone has had experience with Folx 5 torrent and
download manager from Ultimasoft? I'm currently using Vuze Torrent
downloader and while it works fine I have no way to tell how far along
downloads have gotten. How is Folx using VO? Is it easy to set up? I
ask about setup because ultimasoft's website mentions plug-ins for
safari and chrome which makes me wonder.
Thanks Jeff

Re: Question about a very specific type of crash

I cannot use any keys that are connected with Voiceover when this happens. It 
simply makes the default sound you get if there is nothing the key press can  
accomplish.

Thank you for this. How do I know if I’m using portable preferences? Maybe the 
fact that I have to ask this question means I am not?

Finding iTunes stupid

2018-04-19 Thread Simon Fogarty 
Hi Listers,

I've just updated my itunes to the latest I could get,
I think it said it was ver 12.7.4
I needed this for my iPHone x and iPad pro,

What I need to do is upload to the devices the configuration files for my 
OpenVPN system from my netgear router.

So I open itunes,
Find the iPad,
Then scrole down the list of features to find file sharing under info,
Then I go to the list of apps on the iPad
Finding OpenVPN
Then click on add file or add folder
I then find the files to upload to the iPad
Note there are only 3 files here to upload,
Now the crazy side kicks in,

Rather than an add button I can only get an Open button,
And then get multiple files can not be opened at one time.

I've tried adding one at a time,or all four at once,
Plus doing the configuration upload through both windows and mac os,

  Does anyone else have any ideas on how to get these 4 files in to the OPNVPN  
connect app on the ipad?

Any info would be appreciated.

Oh and note this configuration files for the open vpn app  have only just been 
downloaded tonight so they are correct files.
