Mastering the Macintosh E- Book

2019-08-26 Thread Simon Fogarty
HI to those members that were after the Mastering the Macintosh e-book,

I'm sorry to say that after trying to get this book from my books app on both 
my iPhone and an iPod touch  and into iTunes  I have not been able to get it 
downloaded on to ether my mac book pro or my windows machine.

It looks like the book is only there in my library but wont let me share or 
save it off the devices.

My apologies

Regards,

Yes, I have done that three finger double tap also. But when you do it, 
voiceover says speech off. This is not happening. It’s some kind of crazy bug. 
But I can’t find repeatable steps. So it’s hard to report.

Hi Folks,

Re this issue,

Can anyone think of what your doing prior to the voiceover loss to the device?

I'm wondering if you might  be some how muting vo with a 3 finger double tap  
without realising it,

Yes, I have experienced this, but not as persistently as you have, Phil. My 
solution is the same as yours. Turn voiceover off and on. But I only have to do 
it once, and it doesn’t happen every day. This is both with an iPhone 7 Plus

Front Page News

AppleInsider - Frontpage News - Saturday, August 24, 2019 at 11:11 AM How to 
take screen recordings on Mac, iOS and Apple TV
  
Tips
Apple has provided ways to record videos of your Mac, iOS, and Apple TV 
screens, but it doesn't make it easy to figure out how to do it. Here's how to 
get it done.

Someone's clearly forgotten the phrase 'be kind, rewind'.
Sometimes an image is not quite enough. If you want to show someone how to do 
something on their device -or you want to document a whole process -then you 
need more than a screengrab or screen shot. You need video. Apple has you 
covered for how to do this, and so do other companies.
Without any third-party tools, you can record a video showing the screen on 
your Mac, your iOS device or even your Apple TV. Then with certain third-party 
tools, you can do that same recording but zoom in on areas, edit the video, 
highlight some areas and blur others.
None of it is quite as fast as taking the odd instant screen shot, but none of 
it is really time-consuming -unless you want it to be.
If you choose, you can make an entire YouTube-style video presentation and 
actually, maybe that would be good. Perhaps you've got staff who need to do 
something a certain way for you, maybe nobody stays with your firm long enough 
to do it twice. Or maybe it's a job for you that is crucial, yet it's also a 
once in a year kind of thing.

The basics on iOS
There have been ways to film your iPhone or iPad screens before, but from iOS 
11, Apple made it particularly easy -so long as you know where to look.

Once you've added it to Control Center, recording is a matter of tapping the 
Record button What you need is the Screen Recording feature. It may be named 
very clearly and obviously, and using it is going to be extremely easy, but 
finding it is none of these things.
This Screen Recording feature is an optional part of Control Center. 

.   Go to Settings on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad

.   Tap on Control Center

.   Choose Customize Controls

.   From the bottom list, More Controls, find Screen Recording

.   Tap the green plus sign next to it

This screen recorder will be added to Control Center. So now whenever you swipe 
down from the very top right of your device to call up this Control Center, 
you'll see the Screen Recording button there.
To record your iOS device's screen, tap that button, and you'll get a 
three-second countdown in the button's icon. From then until you tap the button 
again, anything you do on your device will be recorded.
When you are done, tap the button again. The resulting video is saved to your 
Camera Roll.

The basics on Mac
Press Command-Shift-5 on your Mac. This brings up the toolbar of options for 
taking screenshots, but it also includes video settings. The middle section of 
icons features one button for recording your entire screen and another for 
recording part of it.
Make your choice, and as soon as you've clicked on either of these buttons, you 
get a new one at the far right of the toolbar, called Record.
If you've clicked to record only part of the screen, you will also get a 
highlighted box showing you which portion will be recorded. That box has grab 
handles and you can resize or move it anywhere you need. 

Command-Shift-5 brings up the Mac's screenshot and screen recording options 
Then click Record and that portion, or the entire screen, will be recorded.
There'll be a Stop icon in your menu bar and that will be recorded along with 
everything else.
When you click it, the recording stops and you get a brief glimpse of a 
thumbnail-sized image at the bottom right of your Mac's screen. Click on that 
and you can do the same markups and sharing of the video that you could with 
screenshots.
If you don't do this right away, you can later on find the screen recording 
saved on your desktop.
You can change where it's saved, and select other settings such as a timer 
countdown before the recording starts, by click on the Options drop down in the 
screen recording toolbar.
Very nicely, if you later come to record a portion of the screen, macOS will 
start off assuming it's the same portion. 
That's one big advantage over the older way of doing it, which was to record 
your screen using QuickTime Player. You can still do that -launch the app, 
choose File and New Screen Recording -and it can record the whole or a portion 
of screen just as it ever did, but it doesn't remember the portion.
Yet QuickTime Player is still good to keep around, because right now it is the 
only way in software to record your Apple TV's screen.

Okay, because I couldn't resist, I am going to paste in three comments, about 
Apple Card, from Twitter that made me laugh:


Comment 1:
Gently rub the fragile & special Apple credit card with microfiber. Also keep 
it away from any normal clothing. Maybe even have special ‘bearers’ wearing 
black turtlenecks that carry it around in an aluminum box with silk lining. 
Peak Apple right here. It was fun while it lasted.

Comment 2:
Never place near other cards.
Do not look directly at card.
Anoint with myrrh and frankincense once per month. 

Comment 3:
Thou shall have no other cards before Apple Card.
Thou shall make no graven image of the Apple Card.
Thou shall not use the Apple Card in vain.
Remember Black Friday and keep it Holy.
Honor Thy Apple Employees.

Subject: How to Protect and Clean your Apple Card, Apple Support

Hello Everyone,

I can hardly catch my breath as I have just been reading the seemingly endless 
jokes about the Apple Card and its unique cleaning instructions, on Twitter, on 
the Apple Insider feed.  

Man!  I've never come across such a wonderful treasure trove of jokes in my 
life.  

I wonder if Apple is laughing, also.  Probably not but, then again, they are 
the ones who released the cards so, let the jokes fall where they may.

All of the jokes are based on the article, posted below:

Enjoy,

Mark

See how to protect and maintain the condition of your titanium Apple Card.
 
About the titanium Apple Card
The titanium Apple Card is laser-etched with the card holder's name and the 
Apple logo. A white finish is achieved through a multi-layer coating process 
that's added to the titanium base material.
If your titanium Apple Card comes into contact with hard surfaces or materials, 
it's possible that the coating can be damaged.
 
How to clean your titanium Apple Card
If your titanium Apple Card comes into contact with contaminants that can cause 
stains, follow these steps to clean your card:
1.  Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free microfiber cloth.
2.  Moisten a soft, microfiber cloth with isopropyl alcohol and gently
wipe the card.
Don't use window or household cleaners, compressed air, aerosol sprays, 
solvents, ammonia, or abrasives to clean your titanium Apple Card.
Some fabrics, like leather and denim, might cause permanent discoloration that 
will not wash off.
 
How to safely store and carry your titanium Apple Card
.   Store your titanium Apple Card in a wallet, pocket, or bag made of
soft materials.
.   Place your card in a slot in your wallet or billfold without
touching another credit card. If two credit cards are placed in the same slot 
your card could become scratched.
.   Don't place or store your titanium Apple Card card near magnets. If
your card is placed close to a magnetic latch on a purse or bag, the magnetic 
strip can become demagnetized.
.   Don't place your titanium Apple Card in a pocket or bag that
contains loose change, keys, or other potentially abrasive objects.

Hello. 

Yesterday I was travelling and I had my I phone connected to my Aftershokz and 
Apple watch. When I received a call, the phone would ring and I would hear the 
sound in my Aftershokz headset. However when the person started to speak the 
voice would only be heard on the I phone speaker. Is there a setting in the 
phone where you can hear the sound routed automatically so if your head set is 
connected and you have your Apple watch connected the voice will be heard in 
your headset please.

I hope all this makes sense.

Thank you very much.

Kawal.

RE: when making phone calls.

2019-08-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Kawal,

I some times get this also,

I find that if I take my earpods out of one ear and put it back in then things 
kick in to life correctly.

 Have you tried turning the after shocks off and back on to push the connection 
back to the phone?

 I also know that if the phones are connected to one device I have to change 
manually to the other but I'm not sure if your aftershocks do this type of 
thing.

Hope this helps.

Ok, I'm concerned I'm going crazy or the world has completely flipped the 
cheese from it's cracker.

don’t' use compressed air on one of the toughest light weight metals available 
on the planet,
note they use titanium on space craft due to weight and toughness.

Really, compressed air is bad!? 

 Don’t' put the apple credit card in your denam jeans or leather pants pockets,

Unless I have a job interview or go to a wedding or possibly a funeral  I only 
ware jeans,
 How does fabric take the colour out of a titanium credit card?

Don't put your card near a magnet  ok, makes sence,

 I'll take my credit card,
And 2 eftpos cards out of my phone case which has a magnetic catch and oh my 
iPhone has a charging coil which could have magnetic effects,

 What the F* is this company doing 
Who comes up with this stuff.

This is like the put your iPhone in the microwave to charge it gag,

RE: Synchronizing Messages Between Mac and iPhone

2019-08-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
This I’m finding interesting,

I’m noticing the same thing on or between my iPhone x and apple watch Series 4,

I’m noticing that the messages I have  showing on my devices don’t sync with 
each other correctly if at all.

I have a happit of deleting messages that are one off or not part of a 
conversation with friends or family,

If I delete one of these messages through the messages app on my watch it 
doesn’t delete from my phones messaging app,

And the same is happening in the opposite way,

I thought this might be due to running a beta on my phone but it appears there 
may be more going on.

back to the original conversation and everything seems to be OK. Sounds weird,

Hi,

These work more or less normally for me.  Sometimes, messages take a little 
extra time to sync, especially when messing with changing phone numbers in 
group conversations, but works as it should in time.  Contacts don't always 
sync immediately, but will within less than one minute after opening the app.  
If you have messages syncing to iCloud, then I suggest that you turn iMessages 
off on the iPhone, restart the iPhone, then re-enable the iMessages service.  
Because things are synced to iCloud, you shouldn't lose anything.  Similarly, 
you can do this on each of your other devices including your Mac if things 
don't fix themselves after doing it on the iPhone.  A simple restart will not 
suffice, it seems like the resources connected with the iMessage service need a 
reset, which is done by kind of resetting the service as I mentioned.

HTH.

SO FAR, I HAVE MANAGED TO STOP THE ANNOYANCE BY LAYING A THIN SHEET OF ALUMINUM

Apple Card Launches, Titanium Apple Watch Leak, Cheaper HomePod in 2020? — MacRumors

Apple Card 
Launches
 in United States
Following five months of waiting and a limited rollout earlier in August, the 
Apple Card is finally available for all qualifying customers in the United 
States.
 iPhone users aged 18 or older can apply for the card in the Wallet app by 
tapping on the plus icon in the top-right corner, and if approved, begin using 
the digital version of the card within minutes.

Once approved, customers can then order a physical, titanium Apple 
Card
 for purchases at stores that do not accept contactless payments. Apple has 
even shared cleaning instructions for the 
card
 — keep it away from leather wallets and denim jeans apparently!

Apple also announced that more merchants will begin offering 3% Daily 
Cash,
 starting with Uber and Uber Eats.

However this may not be working now that the book is not available in the book

RE: Setting downtime on the IPHone.

2019-08-22 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Jessica,

 It appears to be all setup now through screen time,

 I don't know about a locking the home button but there is an option to set a 
pin / pass code to lock kids out of the settings when the locks all kick in,

 
I must admit that I haven't used this stuff myself as I'm not a parent so 
therefore don't need to be that responsible for others 

Hell I probably shouldn't have a phone myself!

Sorry, I didn’t mean to hijack this message but as it was to do with text 
messages and iMessages I thought I’d ask.
My wife and I both have iPhones and we have checked the settings on both 
devices and they look the same. However when my wife sends me an iMessage I 
receive it fine, and then a few seconds or minutes after I get the same message 
again but in the text message format. It doesn’t happen the other way around, 
she only receives iMessages from me. And any other friends that I have with 
iPhones I only get the iMessage without it doubling up as a text as well.
Has anyone seen this before?

Sorry, I didn’t mean to hijack this message but as it was to do with text

My wife and I both have iPhones and we have checked the settings on both 
devices and they look the same. However when my wife sends me an iMessage I 
receive it fine, and then a few seconds or minutes after I get the same message 
again but in the text message format. It doesn’t happen the other way around, 
she only receives iMessages from me. And any other friends that I have with 
iPhones I only get the iMessage without it doubling up as a text as well.
Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks for getting me started. However the CMD Left/right arrow does work to go

Its an all-in-one color laser printer with wifi and ethernet.
Its the best printer I've ever owned. It works every time. Setup on the mac is 
a breeze, just plug it into your router, launch system prefs and hit add 
printer and that's it.
Hope this helps! Jeff

Apple TV Channels F A Q: Services, pricing, availability, and everything else 
you need to know

You can buy and watch third-party streaming services right within Apple's TV 
app, but support is limited.
By Jason Cross
Staff Writer, Macworld July 31, 2019 03:20 PM PT 

With iOS 12.3, Apple is refreshing the TV app and adding a new feature called 
Apple TV Channels. Channels lets you subscribe to third-party streaming 
services like CBS All Access or HBO, right from within the TV app.
You can watch that content in the TV app, served directly from Apple, without 
the need to install other apps.
Here's everything you need to know about which services are available as Apple 
TV Channels, what they cost, and how they work.

Updated 07/31/19: 
CBS All Access is now available in Apple TV Channels, for $9.99 per month.

How do I get Apple TV Channels?
To get Channels, you'll need to update your iPhone or iPad to iOS 12.3, or your 
Apple TV HD or Apple TV 4K to tvOS 12.3. The TV app is not yet available on 
macOS, but it's coming later this year.

Update to iOS 12.3 or tvOS 12.3, and you'll see a list of Channels in the TV 
app.
The TV app will also be available this year on Roku, FireTV, and smart TVs from 
several brands including Samsung, Sony, LG, and Vizio.

How do I subscribe to a Channel?
This part is easy. In the TV app on your iOS device or Apple TV, just scroll 
down in the main Watch Now tab-a list of channels should be prominently 
displayed. Most will have a button that says "Try it Free." Selecting this 
brings up an in-app-purchase approval screen showing the length of the trial 
(usually one week) and the recurring subscription price after the trial is over.
When you're browsing a Channel's content (see below), you'll be presented with 
Try it Free buttons on shows and movies, too.

Subscribing to Channels is fast and easy, and you don't have to install any 
other apps.

How does playback work?
Once you're subscribed to Channel, you'll see shows and movies recommended 
directly in your Watch Now tab. 
As you scroll down in the Watch Now tab, you'll also see a horizontal list of 
Channels represented as circular icons. Select one and you'll see everything 
available on that Channel (whether you subscribe to it or not).
 IDG
You play back shows from Channels directly in the TV app, instead of being 
kicked out to the service's own app.
Select a show, and you'll see an info card showing seasons, episodes, cast and 
crew, and more, along with a prominent "Play" button. On Apple TV, you might 
see a different format, something like "Play first episode" and another button 
for "Add to Up Next."
If you subscribe to the Channel, you can play content right here, directly, 
without having to install any other apps. 

What Channels are available, and what do they cost?
During its "Show time" event on March 25, Apple promised channels from a lot of 
other partners. Here's the list of all the Channels we know of, along with 
their subscription price (if we know it).
All subscriptions are month-to-month with a 7-day free trial. There are no 
yearly subscription options for Channels.
.   Acorn TV ($5.99)
.   Arrow Video Channel ($4.99)
.   Britbox (unknown)
.   CBS All Access ($9.99)
.   Cinemax ($9.99)
.   CollegeHumor Dropout (unknown)
.   Comedy Central Now ($3.99)
.   CuriosityStream ($2.99)
.   Epix ($5.99)
.   Eros Now (unknown)
.   HBO ($14.99)
.   History Vault ($4.99)
.   Lifetime Movie Club ($3.99)
.   MTV Hits ($5.99)
.   Mubi ($10.99)
.   NickHits (unknown)
.   Noggin (unknown)
.   Pantaya (unknown)
.   PBS Living ($2.99)
.   Showtime ($10.99)
.   Shudder ($5.99)
.   Smithsonian Channel Plus ($4.99)
.   Starz ($8.99)
.   Sundance Now ($6.99)
.   Tastemade ($4.99)
.   Up Faith & Family (unknown)
.   Urban Movie Channel ($4.99)

While the new TV app will expand to over 100 countries, the list of available 
Channels may vary from one to the next, as will pricing.
Are you wondering how the Channels prices compare to subscribing within each 
service's native app, or on the web? We have a comparison guide.

What if I already subscribe to one of these services?
If you subscribe to any of these services, you won't be able to use your 
current subscription as a Channel in the TV app. Most of the native apps 
integrate with the TV app, so you'll see content in the Watch Now tab, and your 
shows and movies will appear in Up

Copied all the folders and files I wanted to have synchronized.
Verified that any change I made on Mac showed on iPhone, and vice versa — Voila!
Created an alias for the Documents folder on my Mac Desktop for rapid access.
Re-built other alias for individual files so that they pointed to the correct

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

2019-08-15 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Dave,

Then simple 
If you update a file in any of those folders then the file should be updated on 
the phone or your mac as well as the other device because it's saved in one 
place but shared through the iCloud drive service.

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

2019-08-15 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Dave,

 As you probably know, 
With iCloud drive on your mac computer enabled you have specific folders sync'd 
to the iCloud environment 
I think it's documents, desktop  by default.

I can't remember if they are included in time machine backups  by default but 
you could have a look at your time machine back up drive and see if they are 
showing in the backed up content.


If they are included then if you put the folders your wanting to add in to your 
documents folder which should be in iCloud drive then  that way everything 
should be sync'd and backed up as you require it.

Simon,

I understand what you are suggesting. However the “fils” app on the iPhone is 
the interface to iCloud Drive. I do have iCloud Drive enabled on my iPhone.

I’m wondering if I cannot have those files and folders on my Mac hard drive, 
but instead have to move them to the iCloud Drive and always access them there, 
whether on my Mac or on. my iPhone. If so, I’d just need to set up an alias to 
the iCloud Drive on my Mac desktop to make it easier to get at that set of 
files and folders.

If this is the case, then how would I ensure that these files get incrementally 
backed up using Time Machine?

RE: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

2019-08-15 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Dave,

On your mac you have iCloud drive,
What about on your iPhone 
Do you have iCloud drive synched  or are you some how copying your folders from 
your mac to your files application?

To me if you update the files in the shared iCloud drive folders (Mac ) then 
the files should have updated time / date stamps to say you've updated them.

If the files / folders viewed through your phone are not showing the same time 
/ date stamps then they are not updated on your phones files app.

  Try using the iCloud Drive option under settings / iCloud  so that you get 
the iClud drive share setup on the phone as a live connection.

Subject: Re: Synchronizing Files in iCloud Drive Between Mac and iPhone

I may have mis-stated what is happening.

I have several folders from my Mac hard drive copied to iCloud Drive. I can 
access those file from my iPhone using the files app. But what I was expecting 
is that when I change the file either on my iPhone or on my Mac, that the file 
would be changed across both platforms.

I’m thinking that simply copying the files and folders from the Mac is not the 
correct approach for using the iCloud drive, since there appears to be no 
linked connection between the Mac hard drive and iCloud drive.

Is that why I’m not getting what I expected?

If so, how would I be able to have files that reside on my Mac hard drive be 
available to view and edit on my iPhone, that would allow them to always be 
synchronized?

This is the first time I’ve used my Mac to type on for  over six weeks as I had

Voiceover was totally quiet, but still on as far as I could tell. I had to turn 
off voiceover and then turn it on again before I could get it to talk. Sop even 
though I fixed the problem I was wondering if this is normal or if it is one of

Subject: Using the Mac after a long time

Hi all,
This is the first time I’ve used my Mac to type on for  over six weeks as I had 
a broken wrist. I did notice something interesting when I opened the lid. 
Voiceover was totally quiet, but still on as far as I could tell. I had to turn 
off voiceover and then turn it on again before I could get it to talk. Sop even 
though I fixed the problem I was wondering if this is normal or if it is one of 
those annoying little things that computers do from time to time.

RE: Iphone headphones suggestions?

2019-08-11 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi karen,

The power beats pro are a form of earpods but have  a hook over your ears to 
hold them in,
 They also insert slightly into the ear and have a nice sound but not as clear 
as the apple earpods series 2,

Really if your looking for a good quality over ear headphones for audio 
engineering etc then you will be best to go to a store and try different 
options in a situation that you can control the audio you test the phones with 
so you are able to get a real view of the products working in the way you want 
to be working with them.
Headphones and stereo speakers are the same 
You need to try before you buy so you get the product best your situation

Subject: Iphone headphones suggestions?

Hi everyone,
First, thanks for the help regarding my misplaced iPhone voice.  Took some 
doing, and another person,  with  in the end every voice setting needing to be 
properly set.
My headphones goals are rather specific.  granted am likely going to call a 
music gear store like sweetwater  for suggestions as well, but thought I would 
check here given how long you folks have been using the IPhone.
My intention at least for a while, is to use a composing program, Symphony Pro, 
on my IPhone.  More than likely this is the only item I will be using the phone 
for, its unlocked and I wish to keep it that way.
What that means though is wanting good quality meaning good at producing sound 
quality headphones.  I do not want earbuds,  my ears are small, and they tend 
to fall out, so something with a sturdy hook if not a traditional fit.  the 
IPhone 5 still has a headphone jack, giving me more choices as well.
So anyone know of a strong on sound quality headphone  with a solid fit that 
will work  IPhone wise?
Thanks,
Karen

RE: created dot files?

2019-08-09 Thread Simon Fogarty
The dot file name is a linux / unix file formatting thing.

The dot at the start of a file name was used to hide the file in the unix / 
linux OS.

 Hence as Tim said they should be hidden in the Mac OS 
But very much visible in a windows file explorer.

RE: Bluetooth Devices

2019-08-05 Thread Simon Fogarty
So I'm picking s omething along the lines of a dead man switch that if your 
phone goes ouyt of range of the device or the signal of the device then it 
sounds some kind of alarm to let you know your leaving it behind!

 
Hey what about an apple watch or Bluetooth headphones that are playing audio 
from your phone and when you leqave it behind 
After a while the audio will stop playing which should let you know you left 
your phone behind you some where.

Or the apple watch and you can use ping to find your phone when you leave it 
behind.

RE: Apple watch doesn't retain app layout

2019-08-05 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Donna,

Just thinking about it,

I use the watch face with the most complications on it,
I think it is 8,
 So with that and the dock I'm pretty sure I'd cover most of my required apps,

 Thanks Mark,
Good thought, I'll have to play more with this and see what happens.

Hi all,

And of course, now that I've posted to the list and got all of you messing with 
this, my apps are staying in the exact order in which I want them. lol  Given 
past experience, I'm not confident this will last forever, but I've now put the 
watch on the charger twice, and my app order hasn't changed.

Great suggestion about the dock, Mark.  I don't use it often, I think out of 
habit as much as anything else.  But, that's a great way to make sure that the 
apps I use the most are easily accessible.  However, Simon's right that this 
only works for a few apps, but it probably will meet my needs.  I'll play 
around with the dock more over the next few days and see how it goes.

thanks to all for your thoughts on this.  they have been helpful.  Sometimes we 
get in ruts in how we approach our technology and it's great to have so much 
good input from a list like this to help keep us thinking about other ways to 
accomplish our tasks.
Cheers,
Donna

Hi Kawal,

But I would hope Mark also told you about using the watch app on your phone,

That I found easier to use but each to their own.

Good luck with it,

Hello Mark and all.

I would like to thank Mark for giving me an accurate description of  what to do 
as the round button was the confusion so now I have it all correct in how to 
move Apps on my Apple watch. I don't really move apps and leave things as they

RE: Apple watch doesn't retain app layout

2019-08-05 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Mark and Donna,

 Mark,
That is the Dock so will only take I think it's less than 10 of your favourite 
apps,

That I agree is fine for the ones your using constantly 
But what if you want to put your apps in to say alphabetical order or type 
order like social media,
Banking,
Etc,

Then you will have to use the other option from the watch as Donna suggested or 
through the watch app on the phone as you suggested in the grid or list view.

Hello Donna,

You are quite welcome.  I know how important these things can be, believe me, I 
do.

So, let me offer another suggestion.

I have found that it is much easier and simpler to arrange the apps in a 
preferred order, via the phone, using the Dock feature.

So, here is the scenario:

1.
On the phone, open the Watch app.

2.
Select Dock.  A screen will appear upon which you may arrange your apps in any 
order you prefer.  For example, currently, I have my recent apps listed at the 
top, followed by the Messages app, then Settings, Timer, etc.

Once you get everything all nice and tweaked, and you're ready to roll:

3.
On the watch, just press the long side button instead of the Digital Crown, and 
you will see the list of your favorite apps in the order of your choosing.

Oh, one more thing, you can clear the list of recent apps by using the 
close-all-apps key sequence.  

To close all apps on your Apple Watch:

1.
Press and hold the long side button on the watch until the power-off and other 
device closing options are displayed.

2.
Now, after releasing the side button, press and hold the Digital Crown until 
your normal watch face appears.

That's all there is to it.

Mark

Hi Mark,

Wow, the list view is really different.  It takes so long to scroll through the 
apps!  I could probably get used to it, but I've always used the grid view.  
However, that difference may explain why you prefer arranging apps on your 
phone and I don't.  In grid view, trying to arrange the apps on the phone is 
very confusing, at least in my opinion.

However, what I am trying to accomplish would presumably be the same in either 
view.  I want the apps I use the most to be closest when I enter the apps page. 
 Using grid view, I've been able to accomplish that, but they just never stay 
put.  It's the strangest thing.

thanks for messing around with this, Mark, I appreciate it.
Cheers,
Donna

My apologies to her, I never knew and Ive been on these list with her for years.

Yes Mark give it a try 
I have to admit that I've got more apps on my watch than I really need so I

Hello Donna and Simon.

First, Kawal is a female (smile).

Second, I have not had time to follow the steps listed but I can tell you that 
I have my apps displayed in a list view on my Series 4, and not in a grid view. 
 I seriously dislike the grid view (smile).

I will post another reply later, once I had time to experiment a bit.

Hi Mark and Donna,

I'll have to give this a try.

Hello Donna,

So, have you experimented with the list view on your Series 4?  

I truly do prefer it to the grid view.

To switch to List view:

1.
Press the Digital Crown, once.  The apps page will be displayed.

2.
Single-finger, double-tap, and hold on the display until an audio signal and 
hap tic feedback have occurred.  

3.
Remove your finger from the display.  Now, either explore-by-touch or use the 
Digital Crown to place focus on either the Grid View icon or the List View 
icon.  

4.
Finally, single-finger, double-tap the display to activate your selection.

Donna, let me know what you think, okay?

Mark

Hi Mark,

To answer your second question first, when I try and modify app layout from the 
watch app on my phone, I can't really tell where the apps are going to end up.  
If I do it from the watch, I know exactly where they are.  I'm not sure when 
they get moved back,  but I'm guessing it's when I plug the watch in.  to 
reproduce:
1.  Bring up the watch face.
2.   Press the round button on the front of the watch to bring up apps.
3. Swipe right to hear VO say Arrange apps and double-tap.  VO says editing..
4.  Your choices will be move left or move right.  double-tap the choice you 
want until the app is where you want it to be.
5.  Press Round button again to return to watch face.

Now see how long that app stays where you put it.  

You may be on to something with the difference between moving on the phone and 
on the watch.  I moved some apps in the Watch app on my phone last night after 
I saw your message, and this morning they were still where I had moved them.

thanks for your help with this.

Hi Donna,

Kawal is in the list of watch faces,
Not in the applications list.

He has pressed his finger down on the screen 
Not pressing the digital crown (round button) on the side to bring up the apps.

That's why things are different to him.

RE: Apple watch doesn't retain app layout

2019-08-04 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi kawal & donna,

 On my apple watch s4 it's the press the digital crown the roud button on the 
side to bring up the list of applications  
Then slide one finger down the screen should give you a number of different 
options including activate and then arrange apps,

 Activating the arrange then gives you the move left / move right which again 
you flick a finger up / down to move between those options.so Donna on the s4 
watch it's an up / down flick 
Not the left / right

Left and right moves you between the different applications.

I have never had a problem as you have described. But I have a similar problem

RE: a question about partition maps on a very large thumb drive?

2019-07-30 Thread Simon Fogarty
Use GUID,

 That way you have the option to work with both windows and mac,

 Also I myself would format as xFat so you can use it across platforms.

If your only going to use it with apple computers then use APFS  
But GUID is what your asking for.

Subject: a question about partition maps on a very large thumb drive?

Hi, here’s the situation I am trying to get a very large thumb drive ready for 
use. When I go to format the drive and disk utility. I asked what partition map 
what I like to use. Which of the following choices makes the most sense? GU ID, 
MBR, or Apple partition map?

The thumb drive in question is 250 GB. This machine does have a boot camp area. 
Does the type of partition map matter in the long  For instance if I set this 
to “guid ”  or should it stay and be Mbr  to allow for both operating systems 
to access this drive? Any thoughts?

Sincerely Maurice Mines.

Subject: Avast Security Blocking E-Mail - I Think

 To anybody who has a solution; after my Mac has been on for 10 hours or so I 
find that my e-mail connections have been blocked.  I’m not even able to move 
e-mail messages to several of the iCloud auxiliary folders I’ve created for 
same purpose - i.e., I like to store online order messages in a folder I’ve 
named “E-Commerce.”

This began shortly after installing Avast software.  I opened both the Avast 
Security and the Avast VPN Security apps and was not able to find any sort of 
“Time Out” reference.  Can anybody offer a suggestion as how to eliminate this 
undesired e-mail shutdown?

I’ve been restarting the Mac to eliminate this very annoying issue.

RE: iCloud email

2019-07-26 Thread Simon Fogarty
No, it's not iCloud but either iMap or POP that you need to findout the secure 
ports for.

 iMap would be my suggestion and I'm sure the secure port for incoming mail is 
in the 900 range,

 but the smtp or outgoing mail port is the one that will change depending on if 
they are using TLS or SSL

For instance, iStat Menus shows you Mac battery life in hours, Focus blocks

2019-07-26 Thread Simon Fogarty
Yes you will have moved your vm folder to icloud drive also.

 Bad move sorry to say,

 You could possibly redirect your vm client to the location in icloud drive but 
then your working over a slower connection.



If you can move it back to your local machine you will be better off but the 
location of the folder will be the thing to consider.

I'd go with the shared folder under Users.

Subject: Virtual machine folder after moving documents to iCloud drive

Hi,

I hope somebody, particularly Tim, might respond to this SOS message.  I’ve 
decided to move my Document folder into iCloud drive.  I run Windows in VMWare 
Fusion on my macbook pro as well, and the virtual machine folder is located in 
Document folder. Having moved Document folder into iCloud drive, VMWare Fusion 
doesn’t find my virtual machine.  How can I solve this?  Have I made a mistake 
to move virtual machines folder to iCloud drive?  Should I copy it back to my 
Macbook Pro and if yes how?

Andrew

RE: iCloud email

2019-07-26 Thread Simon Fogarty
If you have secure connection details then yes that is the best thing to do.

 But you will need to find out what port the secure SMTP will use in the case 
of iCloud and you will also need to know your username and passwords for the 
mail account.

Hi Tim,

 This is my thought also.

 The ac adapter sounds like it is powering the iPhone fine but the USB isnt',

 Interesting though that all USB sockets aren't providing enough power,

 USB should be enough to power an iPhone 7

Hi,

It sounds to me like the USB port on your Mac is failing. Those ports do not 
normally give out the kind of power output that the USB wall charger does. It 
sounds like it works with the wall charger, but not so well with your computer. 
This tells me that there is nothing wrong with the iPhone 7, nor the charging 
cable. Try it with a different port on the Mac. See if you have any better luck.

RE: In the market for a new laptop- your advice

2019-07-26 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi I'm not  braille user so I don't have a braille embosser to play with.

 What I can say is that you need to tell the VM device to take ownership of the 
embosser / printer each time it is connected.


And then I'd assume you would need to install appropriate drivers for the 
device.

The connection method  was  USB. I recall the issue being in the setup of the  
embosser. In order to use the embosser, one has to setup an imaginary printer 
first and then somehow trick the computer to print to the embosser by going 
through this imaginary printer setup. I’m definitely distorting all the details 
here- It was so long ago, I don’t recollect the exact details but I know it was 
somewhere along this line. And I also know for a fact that on my bootcamp 
partition the process would work just fine. 

Sorry for the inexact description. Thanks for all your input though.

All best,

Do you have a second cable you could try it with?

Also try plugging the cable in to a different USB port on one of your computers 
or into an AC power adapter which you would have gotten with the iPhone.

 Does the rhythmic vibration happen with any of these other suggestions.

Recently I've noticed something really strange with my iPhone 7 and computers. 
Both my Mac book pro and desktop computer.

When I connect my phone it's meant to charge correct. Well instead of doing 
this it is doing a rhythmic vibration.

I have been in touch with Apple support yesterday and they are not sure if it

But see here's the issue.
We don't have an Apple store over here in Bolton.
The nearist one is either in the Trafford centre or Arndale centre both of 
which ar located in Manchester.

But see my Brother Neil now has a little girl to think about coming up to three 
next month, the fourth.

So he might not be able to take me down there.
Apple support have sent me a link for them to give me a call with all the case 
details already in front of the person.

Please what should I do now?
Any advice or help would be appreciated!
Thanks all, I look forward to any responses.

Through Apple support I found out that this rhythmic vibration means it's

RE: initial view of Power Beats pro

2019-07-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Donna,

 I think mainly because I've had them longer,

The Earpods series 2 have a slightly better body to the audio than the beats 
pro,

But in saying that the pros have a great sound also and I wouldn't turn it down 
from the listening I've done so far

But yes they some how need to  setup a way to check these types of devices out 
before people buy them.

The only thing is, sound is such a subjective thing.  I'd really like to be

nice to have a perspective from a VoiceOver user.
I had the first generation of AirPods, but returned them due to lag and missing 
phone calls because of said lag.
Have you noticed that these work better when typing with VoiceOver? I've heard

As for sound quality, do you find it too bassy? That's what I've seen a lot of

Open the clam shell lid and your IOS device automatically picks up the 
Bluetooth connection signal from the power beats pro
And  a tap of the connect icon on the device screen connects the beats pro 
quickly to the device…

There is a quiet chime to indicate connection

I’ll say that to me the pairing and connection of the Power Beats Pro pods to 
my iPhone x was quicker than that of my Apple EarPods S2  and less problematic.

The  sound quality is very clear and somewhat less body than that of the 
Earpods,
Still very clear and sharp but somewhat less body when it comes to listening to 
music.

Although this was onbly over 20 minutes of playing around with them.

The controls on the beats pro work extremely well including listening with one 
beats pro and controlling play / pause and volume from the other pod (not in  
your ear).


The over ear hook is a soft rubberized plastic, it’s unusual to have the hook 
over your ear when your not use to it, but it’s not overly noticeable as the 
prto pods just hung in my ears even during movemen

Overall thus far I think they are pretty good and well worth looking into if 
you were looking to purchase headphones

Sorry just a short and sweet review.

RE: In the market for a new laptop- your advice

2019-07-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Ibraheem




 Really there isn't a lot to choose from these days with the mac computers,

 My suggestion would be 
At least 16GB ram,
And a minimum 512GB SSD 
The later the mac book be it an air or a pro the better as you will get a 
longer life from it than an earlier device.

I did look at a 2017 Mac book air which had 8GB ram and 512GB SSD and an i7 
2.2GHz processor which would be a great little machine but wont take on all of 
the newer developments in mac os Catalina 

But the only thing I can suggest is avoid any mac book pro with the touch bar, 
and try to stick to a machine later than 2017 if possible.

Oh and remember that all the new mac book models have USB-C both for power and 
external device connection.


And don't look at the Mac Book 12 inch devices as they are to under powered.

Good luck.

Hey Simon,

thanks for the suggestion. I’ll look into the refurbished models. Are there any 
specs I should strongly consider when trying to find the best machine to 
accomplish what I need with a virtual machine and bootcamp? I’m a little out of 
touch with tech specs and any advice you have on this is deeply appreciated. 
Ideas like which processes or how much ram is ideal for a smooth experience is  
what I’m looking to know more about.

Kindly,

IOS Outlook for IOS

2019-07-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Lists,
I've cross posted this to kill 2 birds,

I've just noticed that Microsoft have updated Outlook for IOS and one of the 
updated features is that it will now allow for interfacing with iCloud / iCloud 
Drive and One Drive as well as a couple of other cloud based storage site.
I'm trying to do more with Outlook for IOS because of what apple are doing to 
Mail on my iPad and phone,

So this might be worth while looking at if folks were interested.

RE: initial view of Power Beats pro

2019-07-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Brianna,

Firstly the sound, no I thoughtthat would be a big thing as I’m not really in 
to big base
Even though I’m a fan of rock genre

I did not in the 20 or so minutes I was playing with them at the time notice 
any lag when typing and that was email using my iPad pro 11” and the built in 
Mail app.

And I can’t say I notice lag through my earpodss series 2 either so possibly it 
is that upgrade in chip that corrected previous lag.

I haven’t yet taken a phone call on them so can’t comment on that one yet.

One thing I did think of this afternoon when I got home was that with the size 
of the charging case I’m wondering why they didn’t put wireless charging in the 
beats pro case as it’s big enough to have it

to try and describe the size of the pro charging case
it’s about the size of the box that the earpods come in,

that’s the cardboard packaging  you would get if you purchase the earpods from 
apple that would be the physical size of the case but slightly higher and has a 
rounded lid on it.

It’s a shame really that people can’t try these in store or at least look at 
them out of a package.

Good luck.

Hi,

Thanks for your thoughts on these. I keep looking at reviews on them, so it's 
nice to have a perspective from a VoiceOver user.
I had the first generation of AirPods, but returned them due to lag and missing 
phone calls because of said lag.
Have you noticed that these work better when typing with VoiceOver? I've heard 
that the chip in both these and the AirPods 2 is supposed to fix most of the 
lag issue.
As for sound quality, do you find it too bassy? That's what I've seen a lot of 
people say.

Thanks for your thoughts,

Hi Folk,s,

Thought I’d give you a quick run down of the power vbeats pro headphones,
So apart from the fact the headphones case is about 5 times the physical size 
of the earpods charging case, it’s a nice package
Similar to an enlarged ring box from a jeweler,

When you left the lid
The pods sit in grooved sockets with the hocks lying in the middle rolling back 
over the top of the actual pods,
Hi Listers,

So my Power Beats Pro pods turned up this morning,

Interesting design,

Physically larger than the Apple Earpods

Both the pods themselves and the charging case,

The PowerBeats Pro case would be approximately 5 times the size of the Earpods 
case

With a somewhat clam shell design.

With a lightening port at the back of the case.

The physical pods  are much larger in size than the Earpods
Possibly twice the size not including the ear hock,

But even with that increased size the power beats pro sit in your ear nicely,

Pairing is similar to that of the Earpods,
Open the clam shell lid and your IOS device automatically picks up the 
Bluetooth connection signal from the power beats pro
And  a tap of the connect icon on the device screen connects the beats pro 
quickly to the device…

There is a quiet chime to indicate connection

I’ll say that to me the pairing and connection of the Power Beats Pro pods to 
my iPhone x was quicker than that of my Apple EarPods S2  and less problematic.

The  sound quality is very clear and somewhat less body than that of the 
Earpods,
Still very clear and sharp but somewhat less body when it comes to listening to 
music.

Although this was onbly over 20 minutes of playing around with them.

The controls on the beats pro work extremely well including listening with one 
beats pro and controlling play / pause and volume from the other pod (not in  
your ear).


The over ear hook is a soft rubberized plastic, it’s unusual to have the hook 
over your ear when your not use to it, but it’s not overly noticeable as the 
prto pods just hung in my ears even during movemen

Overall thus far I think they are pretty good and well worth looking into if 
you were looking to purchase headphones

Sorry just a short and sweet review.

Hi Petrus,

I don't believe apple have windows drivers to deal with the touch bar is part 
of the issue,
 Most likely more they don't want windows using their touch bar tech,

Either way yes I have heard the same.

 As for the keyboard, 
Yeah really struggling to get use to it,
But it's very slowly growing on me.

Hi Ibraheem

Yes I have also as petrus said heard this about the touch bar models of Mac 
Book Pro.

 Note this is now all Mac Book Pro models both 13 and 15inch as the newly 
released Mac Book Pro range a couple of weeks ago have replaced the mac book 
pro models with out the touch bar, or simply put the entry level mac book pros.

But apple do have refurbished devices listed on their websites so it may be 
worth checking that out for a 2017  or 2018 model pro without touch bar,

That's where I got my 13inch pro from .

RE: In the market for a new laptop- your advice

2019-07-24 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Ibraheem

Interesting requirements

I've just recently been through the same thing finding a machine that would 
work for me in both cases,
Windows through Bootcamp and Mac OS of course.


I managed to get a refurbished Mac Book pro 2017 13 inch with the specs I 
wanted from the apple website under refurbished computers,

 Might be worth having a look at that list as well.

 With the currently listed new machines from apple the Newly released Mac Book 
Pro's  only have the ttouch bar and therefore don't work well with windows both 
in bootcamp or a virtual machine,

 I've not tried this myself but it's what I've been advised of by a number of 
people both technictions and users of mac products.

 Again look in to refurbished devices of the 2018 or older models for the mac 
book pros.

As for the mac book air,
  Yeah the new ones are nice but have the butterfly keyboard which I personally 
am not a fan of,

 But they do have up to 16GB ram 
A 1.5TB SSD 
And use USB-C as the connection type for both external devices  and charging.

I personally question the processor which was a 1.6GHz dual core processor 
although an 8th gen I believe so should still have good power to run windows.
But it is probably the better machine to look at  due to not having the touch 
bar 

 Depending on what it is you wish to do I personally had as my previous Mac 
book air,
8GB ram and 512GB SSD
And at the time an upgraded processor to the I7 available 

 And it's worked great for 6 years.

The air is cheaper and smaller form factor but will give you the benefits of 
the upcoming  Mac OS 10.15.x
Which will also assist you.

Hope this helps.

initial view of Power Beats pro

2019-07-23 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Folk,s,

Thought I'd give you a quick run down of the power vbeats pro headphones,
So apart from the fact the headphones case is about 5 times the physical size 
of the earpods charging case, it's a nice package
Similar to an enlarged ring box from a jeweler,

When you left the lid
The pods sit in grooved sockets with the hocks lying in the middle rolling back 
over the top of the actual pods,
Hi Listers,

So my Power Beats Pro pods turned up this morning,

Interesting design,

Physically larger than the Apple Earpods

Both the pods themselves and the charging case,

The PowerBeats Pro case would be approximately 5 times the size of the Earpods 
case

With a somewhat clam shell design.

With a lightening port at the back of the case.

The physical pods  are much larger in size than the Earpods
Possibly twice the size not including the ear hock,

But even with that increased size the power beats pro sit in your ear nicely,

Pairing is similar to that of the Earpods,
Open the clam shell lid and your IOS device automatically picks up the 
Bluetooth connection signal from the power beats pro
And  a tap of the connect icon on the device screen connects the beats pro 
quickly to the device...

There is a quiet chime to indicate connection

I'll say that to me the pairing and connection of the Power Beats Pro pods to 
my iPhone x was quicker than that of my Apple EarPods S2  and less problematic.

The  sound quality is very clear and somewhat less body than that of the 
Earpods,
Still very clear and sharp but somewhat less body when it comes to listening to 
music.

Although this was onbly over 20 minutes of playing around with them.

The controls on the beats pro work extremely well including listening with one 
beats pro and controlling play / pause and volume from the other pod (not in  
your ear).


The over ear hook is a soft rubberized plastic, it's unusual to have the hook 
over your ear when your not use to it, but it's not overly noticeable as the 
prto pods just hung in my ears even during movemen

Overall thus far I think they are pretty good and well worth looking into if 
you were looking to purchase headphones

Sorry just a short and sweet review.

RE: Quicknav on Apple TV, also setting up Prime Video

2019-07-17 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Donna,

Looking at the amazon prime video app on my Apple tv I can't find an 
accessibility feature anywhere in the settings of the application.

 However I did remember that when I set up my amazon prime account or 
subscription I did this through an online form through my internet service 
providera as it was part of a deal when I joined them.

 I wondered if the accessibility setup was some kind of service enabled att the 
time I setup the subscription / registration.
I'll keep looking but can't see where the hell the accessibility features are.

Hello All,

Okay, it's official, I absolutely love my iPad Pro.  I have owned it almost 
five months, now, and find that I am using it more and more, each day.  I am 
certain that my new found appreciation of the tablet has to do with the Apple 
Smart Keyboard, an accessory that makes iPad feel more like a moble desktop 
than a tablet.  

What I am discovering is that I enjoy the fusion of the hardware keyboard and 
the touch screen.  This makes what are sometimes challenging websites for my PC 
and/or Mac computers much more easily accessible.  

I find that I am using a much wider range of iOS apps on iPad than I ever would 
have on iPhone because of the convenience of the Smart Keyboard.  

For example, I now manage all of the administrative functions of this group on 
my iPad where as I used to only manage it via my PC.  Simply put, the 
experience is better on iPad than on a desktop; iPhone is simply too small and 
there is the issue of not having an easily accessible hardware keyboard for 
iPhone.  Yes, I have a Apple Bluetooth keybord for iPhone but I much prefer to 
use the iPad Smart Keyboard.

For so many years I was of the opinion that the VoiceOver experience on iPhone 
would/should be the same on iPad.  I was completely wrong on this point.

I'm seriously thinking about activating the LTE feature on the tablet but have 
not yet done so because I use it, primarily, at home.

I have decided not to install any financial / money management apps on it 
because the iPhone works just fine and I do anticipate using iPad on a public 
Wi-Fi sooner or later, assuming I do not activate LTE or make use of my 
tethering option.  

Now I'm not suggesting that I would buy a tablet instead of a Mac or PC

RE: Okay, It's Official, Mark Loves His iPad Pro

2019-07-15 Thread Simon Fogarty
Yeah I gotta admit mail on the ipad isn’t my most favourite application.

I’d prefer mail to work on my ipad like it does on the iPhone,

The way it opens into a message but has the listed messages at the top kind of 
makes it difficult to keep track of where I am.

Hi Mark and Kliph,

I, too, am becoming more and more of a fan of my iPad, and am seriously 
thinking that it could soon replace my Mac.  But I have one question for the 
two of you.  The one thing I really don't like on the iPad is dealing with 
Mail.  I find it to be much slower and cludgier, than on the Mac when using a 
bluetooth keyboard.  I'm curious about how the two of you handle this.  
Basically, what I want to be able to do, is scroll through my list of emails, 
reading those that I want to read, and deleting those that I don't.  That seems 
like it should be a fairly simple and straight forward thing to do.  But I am 
always taken into the body of the selected message, which takes me away from 
the message list.  Then, I have to scroll back up to the top, get back into the 
message list, and repeat for each subsequent message.  Have either of you found 
a better way of doing this?  Kliph, like you, I'm using the Logitech Slim Combo 
keyboard, which I think is the equivalent of the slim folio for the 9-inch 
iPad. and I completely agree with your assessment of it.  I love it.

Thanks in advance to both of you for any thoughts on this.
Cheers,
Donna

Mark,

 You sure you want to leteveryone know about these fetishes on this list?

I have to admit I like mine also but don't use it enough as I can't work in 
windows world on it,

I'd use my 11" pro only if I could do things like powershell and Active 
directory administration work from it,

 So far I can't get remote desktop work to either mac or windows based machines 
working with screen readers, this would make my life so much easier and simpler 
if I only had one device.

Cheers mark for the great info,

Subject: Okay, It's Official, Mark Loves His iPad Pro

Hello All,

Okay, it's official, I absolutely love my iPad Pro.  I have owned it almost 
five months, now, and find that I am using it more and more, each day.  I am 
certain that my new found appreciation of the tablet has to do with the Apple 
Smart Keyboard, an accessory that makes iPad feel more like a moble desktop 
than a tablet.  

What I am discovering is that I enjoy the fusion of the hardware keyboard and 
the touch screen.  This makes what are sometimes challenging websites for my PC 
and/or Mac computers much more easily accessible.  

I find that I am using a much wider range of iOS apps on iPad than I ever would 
have on iPhone because of the convenience of the Smart Keyboard.  

For example, I now manage all of the administrative functions of this group on 
my iPad where as I used to only manage it via my PC.  Simply put, the 
experience is better on iPad than on a desktop; iPhone is simply too small and 
there is the issue of not having an easily accessible hardware keyboard for 
iPhone.  Yes, I have a Apple Bluetooth keybord for iPhone but I much prefer to 
use the iPad Smart Keyboard.

For so many years I was of the opinion that the VoiceOver experience on iPhone 
would/should be the same on iPad.  I was completely wrong on this point.

I'm seriously thinking about activating the LTE feature on the tablet but have 
not yet done so because I use it, primarily, at home.

I have decided not to install any financial / money management apps on it 
because the iPhone works just fine and I do anticipate using iPad on a public 
Wi-Fi sooner or later, assuming I do not activate LTE or make use of my 
tethering option.  

Now I'm not suggesting that I would buy a tablet instead of a Mac or PC 
computer; but I am saying that the tablet certainly augments both my web 
browsing accessibility experience and my confidence in terms of accessing 
various software applications and challenging websites.

In short, it is a wonderful addition to my other technology, not a replacement 
for it.

As a ten-year iPHone user, it has taken a little time to get used to iPad and 
its advantages and, in some cases, its disadvantages.  

It will be interesting to discover how Apple will further increase the 
distinction between iOS and iPad OS, this fall.  

I had planned on installing the beta of iPad OS on my iPad Pro but, I am 
enjoying using iPad so much that I find that I have no desire to test the new 
OS until it is much more stable (smile).

Just thought I would post this for those of you who may be considering iPad.
If you do decide to move forward with a purchase, I cannot stress enough the 
important, in my opinion, of also buying, if not the Apple Smart Keyboard, then 
at least an iPad-compatible BlueTooth Keyboard.

In the Journey,

Mark

RE: Quicknav on Apple TV, also setting up Prime Video

2019-07-14 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Donna,

That's odd,

I installed amazon prime a few weeks ago and I think it's great,

 I start up prime and voiceover stops talking to me but prime starts talking to 
me itself 

It actually has it's own screen reader built in and it's so far pretty good 
including the audio description which auto plays with  the tv shows I've so far 
vbeen watching.

 I'd say remove it and try reinstalling so to get a clean start


Good luck.

Hi all,

I just downloaded Prime Video on my Apple TV.  When I try and open it, the 
screen goes dark, and Voiceover says QuickNav On.  After that, VO is silent, 
though I know it's on, because the one thing I am able to do is toggle it on 
and off.  I've never heard of QuickNav being activated on my Apple TV before.  
And the weird thing is--I assume this is because of QuickNav, I can't even back 
out of the app.  Can anyone help?  How do I turn off QuickNav, and how do I 
make Prime Video work?
TIA,
Donna

I have albums in apple music which show up twice and the second one of these 
doesn’t include the whole album.
But there’s a button saying something like show complete album or so.
But these songs that  shows up when you press that button wont play due to 
country restrictions.
The first album of these two is the complete one and can be played as normal.
SO i don’t understand what’s going on here.
If this continues i will go for spotify or some other service.

RE: Calls from other devices.

2019-07-08 Thread Simon Fogarty
I can only assume that is your situation.

My watch is paired to my iPhone and it will ring if I get a call on the fphone.

 I have the gps watch as we don't have an LTE option here in nz,

 I'm not sure what would happen if you got a cal via facetime via your apple ID 
which should make any IOS device using that apple ID to ring.

I think then your watch and your phones would all ring.

RE: installing mac osx on vmware fusion.

2019-07-08 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Andrew,

If you started the beta installation on your primary machine 
Then stopped the install before it got to far,
 You could move the dmg file or app file from the applications folder then put 
it where fusion would find it.

I can't see why this would be different to that of an update of a production OS.

Hi Anders,

I'm not sure I'm understanding this correctly but I'll give an answer that I 
hope might help.

 Your apple watch is paired with one iPhone and therefore picks up phone calls 
associated with that phone when a call is received.

 If you have a second phone then you should be able to call it from your 
primary phone and associated apple watch,

If your apple watch is a series 3 or 4  with LTE then you should be able to 
make phone calls to any other device that is if I understand how the LTE watchs 
work.

Hope that makes sense and helps with what your asking.
