RE: iPad Models

I keep thinking it's a function ctrl left arrow but I thinking that's on the 
mac book not on my iPad.

I need to find a keyboard for my ipad.

Hey ET,

On my Logitech SlimCombo, it is Control left arrow to go to top of screen. On 
the home screen, pressing CTRL-right Arrow once takes you to the dock, and 
pressing it again takes you to Suggestions. On other screens, I think pressing 
it once just takes you to bottom of screen, but I'd have to confirm that, and 
I'm on my Mac right now, not my iPad.
HTH,
Donna

What keyboard are you using? If I don't have QN enabled on my iPad, my ability 
to navigate the screen using the keyboard is very limited. For example, the 
CTRL-right arrow command to go to the top of the screen only works when QN is 
on. If it is off, nothing happens when you press that key combination. I'd love 
to know if there's a way to use the iPad without QN, because frankly I hate 
having to use it.

Re: iPad Models

2020-01-04 Thread 'E.T.' via MacVisionaries
   I have looked at so much, uh, stuff while researching things related 
to iPadOS and could have missed this. So if I leave QN on, will I also 
be able to go to the top or bottom within containers like what we see in 
Settings?


   One more goodie is pressing and holding Command to get keyboard 
hints. Nice. What about context menus? A single finger triple tap brings 
that up? Is there a keyboard shortcut? I am in burn out mode but will 
recover quickly now that progress is being made. :)

In iOS and iPadOS, go to settings, accessibility, voiceover, Braille, the
more info button which follows the name of the braille display when right
flicking, braille commands. Here one finds all of the commands, and the
ability to change each command. It is customizable by braille display. In
other words, the commands can be different for each braille display.

RE: iPad Models

2020-01-03 Thread Simon A Fogarty
I can't remember, and I can't check with my iPad mini as I don't have a 
keyboard with it.

I did a search in google and found this page but it's from Ios 9 by the looks 
of it and there may well be changes now.

Have a look, 
It's got shortcut keys for everything on the iPad
https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/every-ipad-keyboard-shortcut

sorry I can't be more helpful.

RE: iPad Models

2020-01-03 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Yeah the gestures changed between the older model standard pads and the iPad 
Pros.

Like what happened with the phones that have face id.

 But now the  newer versions of the standard iPads use the same gesture set as 
the Pros have.

So even with touch id the iPad mini 5 and ipad air (new) have the same gestures 
as the iPad pros with face id.

And I believe all the new phones both with and without face id have again the 
same gesture set over all but there are some slight differences.

Good luck.

Mini 5 has pretty much the same chip as the current iPad pro 11 & 12 inch 
devices.

Same with the iPad air 10 inch.

All of them now allow for the same gestures such as flick up from the bottm of

Down one vibration  for control panel /  two vibrations for notification 
manager.

Re: iPad Models

2020-01-02 Thread 'E.T.' via MacVisionaries

Simon,
   I like the mini 4 only because it is the only iPad I have used, 
except for the mini 3. Just took a quick look at specs and prices. The 
mini 5 might do well. I'm getring used to the BT keyboard which can 
connect to up to 3 devices. And there is iCloud Drive so all devices can 
share.


   Given the difference in cost between Pro and mini, I can live with 
the mini. I don't know what chip the mini 4 has but my iPhone 8 has it 
beat. :) Ok found the chip. Yes the mini 5 will almost match the iPhone 
8. Close enough.


   Thanks Simon. Appreciate the overview.

  Th eonly thing I'm not happy about with the mini 5 is I can't find a good

I'd love to see apple produce a pro mini version
Or at least a mini with the folio keyboard and face id.
Good luck.

 I've an iPad mini 4. Been spending more time with it lately and am curious 
to know the advantages of the Air as well as the  Pro models.

 One aspect of the Pro is ability to connect external drives. Any 
limitations on what the Pro can access? Like a 1tb plus iTunes library?
Thanks.

   Half breed, probably not too far off an analogy. Just got the mini 4 
last year but it may be worth looking ar a newer model which will take 
iPadOS.

 Still mulling over the iPadOS news and am wondering what the major 
differences are between the iPad mini and Air models. If anyone has used both, 
please share your thoughts. Thanks.
