Re: Access to a Drive on My Wi-Fi Server

[Dave Carlson]

Tim,
Are you saying to look at the Airport Utility on the iPhone, and the disk tab? 
I opened Airport Utility on the Mac and do not find any tab for the disks. What 
am I missing?

need a username, just the password, although it should figure that out itself.

Re: Voiceover reading pages in pdf documents twice

Hi Andrew,

it depends. If you are talking from Big Sur, yes. There’s an odd behavior. But 
it should be resolved in Monteray.

Voiceover reading pages in pdf documents twice

['Andrew Lamanche' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

Has anyone noticed a very odd behaviour of Voiceover when reading pdf documents 
either in Preview or when Safari opens them on the web?  Voiceover reads each 
page of a pdf document twice.  This is very annoying and totally unnecessary.  
Could you confirm?

Re: Autochange Language?

['Andrew Lamanche' via MacVisionaries]

Hello Zoe,

As I’ve said already, I’ve been reporting this problem to Apple accessibility 
for over 5 years, since High Sierra came out.  They’ve asked me repeatedly the 
same questions, I’ve provided the answers, I’ve sent them samples of Voiceover 
behaviour repeatedly and still they haven’t fixed this.  I feel utterly 
abandoned and mocked by them by now.  I often switch to Windows to be able to 
read and enjoy Greek  but this is a kick in the teeth as I’ve invested so much 
in the Apple products.

Thanks for your feedback.  I shall continue to report to Apple accessibility 
but I’m losing hope.

Andrew

RE: English Keyboard Disappeared?

[Fazil]

Thanks much, Jonathan, I do appreciate for your help.

I took my macbook to Genius bar  and he finished up the process that I left 
unfinished. I had him add four Arabic keyboards along with English one. It was 
so noisy in the store that I could not check the affects of the changes. When I 
came home, I realized that I could switch the keyboard on the fly but certain 
keyboards of Arabic were not recognized by Voiceover, I mean Voiceover did not 
read them. I felt like I have lost the English keyboard.

So, This morning, I have removed the additional Arabic keyboard and kept just 
one.

Now my life is at ease and everything is hunky-dorry! Ctrl-space toggles the 
keyboard, English-Arabic and vise versa and no fuss! *smile*.

Thanks again.

Hello, 

You indicated that you were unable to finish. I expect what you are saying was 
that you could not find something in the instructions and not that you ran out 
of time. 

When you are in the input area of system preferences that we have been 
discussing, are you having issues navigating the table of input types? One 
thing that does get confusing on this page is that a HTML representation of the 
keyboard layout is presented and this is very difficult to navigate if you are 
using VoiceOver. Although email is hard to have interactive discussions, 
perhaps if you let us know where you are getting stuck, we can find work 
arounds so you can get everything set up the way you want.

Jonathan 

 

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

I followed your instructions last week but could not finish it. The Genius bar 
told me that Arabic keyboars are already there. I said yes I tried to add it 
but could not finish it. So he fixed it and told me how to switch the keyboard.

Now, I guess, I can not do anything because English keyboard is not available.

Thanks!

Here is some text I sent you last week via this list. I guess you didn't read 
it.

 

 

Oh, and by the way 

1. Open System Preferences 

2. Open the view menu and select keyboard 

3.  Press the Input Sources button 

4. Press the add button 

5. Select "Arabic" from the list that comes up.

6. Check the checkbox to display language input in the menu bar.

7. There will now be a bunch of options discussing Left to Right and Right to 
Left text, you will probably need to change the shortcuts listed here but I 
don't understand them. I would think that just selecting the appropriate 
language input from the language menu would be all that you need.

 

 

 

Best wishes,

Hi, Group.

Yesterday, I took my MacBookPro2017 to Genius Bar in the nearby Apple Store 
because I want Arabic Keyboard. He added  three Arabic keyboard so I can use 
whichever I like. He told me that I could switch the keyboard on the fly by 
hitting ctrl-space. So, the problem is now that ctrl-space changes keyboard 
with each press but it brings up three keyboards of Arabic only. It does not 
bring the English keyboard. How can I get back the English Keyboard or add it 
again, please?

Thanks!

Tim,
Yes, that’s exactly where I looked for ideas. I may be botching the user ID. 
Tried the usual admin with my password and that did not work.
Can you point me to where I would look on the Mac for this information? I set

Re: Safari busy again on big sur 11.6

[Jonathan Cohn]

Strange, I have not experienced this with either my Catalina system or my 
public beta system with Safari 15. I wonder if it is the sites, or the 
computer. 
Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Re: English Keyboard Disappeared?

[Jonathan Cohn]

Hello, 
You indicated that you were unable to finish. I expect what you are saying was 
that you could not find something in the instructions and not that you ran out 
of time. 
When you are in the input area of system preferences that we have been 
discussing, are you having issues navigating the table of input types? One 
thing that does get confusing on this page is that a HTML representation of the 
keyboard layout is presented and this is very difficult to navigate if you are 
using VoiceOver. Although email is hard to have interactive discussions, 
perhaps if you let us know where you are getting stuck, we can find work 
arounds so you can get everything set up the way you want.
Jonathan 

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Re: Autochange Language?

[FIOGKOS]

Hi Andrew, hope you are well, I have 27 inch iMac late 2013 and an iPhone 8 
plus. My Mac is running Catalina because it will not take any newer update. On 
my iPhone 8 plus the Greek language works just fine. On the Mac running 
Catalina the Greek does not work. The Greek voice reads characters but not 
words and lines. I called apple accessibility about this. They had me record 
what’s happening on my Mac with the Greek language they got back to me saying 
they need more information and want to do another recording of my 
Mac/screen/voiceover/Greek voice and how things work. When they called me I was 
unavailable and sent them an email replying back that I would be available a 
day later at a certain time. They never got back to me and I plan to call them 
again.
Open till this issue I have been very happy with apple accessibility, however 
with the language issue I feel like they left me hanging.
I’m not giving up I will try again.
It is absolutely necessary for me to have the Greek language working on the 
Mac, so I hope they will fix it soon.

Re: Access to a Drive on My Wi-Fi Server

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi Dave,

I’m assuming that you’re following the instructions from Apple found at:

https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/iph8d8f0f1a0/ios 


I used these instructions to connect to a server at work with the Files app 
with no difficulty.  Do you know what format the drive is?  MacOS Extended 
(Journaled), APFS, NTFS etc.?  Am I right to assume that you connect just fine 
with your Mac?  If yes, the Mac should essentially give you the same set of 
dialogs to deal with.  That is, Server address, username and password, and 
specific volume.  I will test at home when I get home tonight to see if I 
experience any difficulties when accessing my similarly connected drives to the 
Extreme.

Later…

Access to a Drive on My Wi-Fi Server

[Dave Carlson]

I have a SSD drive connected to my AirPort Extreme that I use for storing 
backup files from my Mac. It is accessed using a 192.168.0.# 
I would like to also be able to access these files using my iPhone. I thought 
it would simply be a matter of using the files app and setting my server 
location. But it tells me that this operation is not valid.
Is there a better way to do this, rather than using the files app?

Re: IPhone SE 2020 (2nd generation)

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hi,

It sounds to me that you’re making it more complicated than it actually is.  
When you pull out your iPhone to do the double-press of the side button, simply 
make sure that it is facing you and the face recognition will happen instantly, 
then move the iPhone over beside the reader like you do when using your 
finger-print.  Really, it’s not complicated at all, just slightly different.  
As Dave mentioned, if the “Attention Aware” feature is disabled, which is the 
recommendation when VO is on, then you should have no difficulties 
authenticating with Face ID.

Yeah, I have to agree with Dave on this one.  Though as I wrote in my earlier 
post, there are definitely things I dislike about face ID, other than the 
situations I mentioned before, I don’t have any trouble getting it to unlock.
Cheers,
Doonna

 Hello,
 
 I’ve decided to upgrade from iphone 8 to iphone SE 2nd generation 

Re: IPhone SE 2020 (2nd generation)

[Dave Carlson]

Well Shawn, there are many reasons for why one would not update to new iPhone 
hardware. But for simply not wanting to make use of Face ID for that seems 
different. You may not be aware of the attention aware feature, that does not 
require you stare exactly into the phone to unlock. My iPhone unlocks 
immediately when it’s pointing anywhere near my face.
Good luck.

Hey Dave. I'm finally able to send a reply to your message from last week 
because I've reactivated my Apple One subscription. Anyway, the reason I don't 
like Face ID is because it seems like it's too complicated. Especially seeing 
as how I use Apple Pay every day. From what I've heard, you have to double 
press the side button, aim the phone at your face which I'm not good at doing 
at all, then aiming the phone at the debit machine to finalize the purchase. 
With touch ID, all I have to do is aim my phone at the machine and use touch 
ID. Now granted, I could use my Apple Watch which is what I've been doing ever 
since I got it, but what if I have to leave my watch at home because it's 
charging? That would mean that I would have to struggle with Face ID which I 
have no patience to learn how to use. So until Apple forces me to upgrade, I'm 
going to stick with my iPhone SE 2020.

Regards,
Shawn,
