Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?
You are correct on both counts. You cannot use Windows Explorer on an iPod using the normal iPod software installed on the unit. You either use iTunes or the Anipod software you mentioned. I haven't used that software for over two years, but the last I checked that software costs about $50. If one uses the RockBox software on one of the iPods that that software works on you can copy files and folders with Windows Explorer, but not if you are using the installed iPod software. - Original Message - From: Christopher Chaltain chalt...@gmail.com To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2010 4:54 PM Subject: RE: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?

Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?
I think I've heard that you can copy and paste, but you have to go through iTunes to do it. When I had a 4th-gen Nano for a short period of time, I looke through iTunes to see if I could just copy and paste some files onto the player, and had no luck in finding out how to do it. I have heard on another list that you can do it by following a few steps in iTunes though. *shrugs* Not for me thank you.

Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?
Hello all list members, Apple is going out of their way for their blind customers. The first few iPods didn't have Voiceover on them. But if you order them directly from them, by special request, they will install Voice Over on them before they ship it to you. I still have my Apple Nano that I ordered 3 years ago, I have no problems getting along with it! And to answer the question about having to use iTunes to put audio files on it, that isn't necessary. Just use the copy and paste command to put them on your iPod. My best regards.

Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?
Hello Joe, All of the Apple iPods, have Voice Over on them. Yes, they do read things out loud to you. Things like, the names of audio files the weather time and date and so on. This is especially true about the iPod Touch. My best regards.

Well, the subject line asks the question. I'd also like to know if any of them speak what's on screen. Thanks. Joe.

Unless there has been a recent change, I don't believe that the Apple classic line has Voice Over, but the Shuffle, Nano and Touch all do. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of DJ DOCTOR P Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2010 12:33 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?

Re: Are any apple MP 3 players blind accessible?
Hi Joe, There are several models of Apple's MP3 players which can be made to speak. There are some early models of iPods which can be made to speak with Rockbox, then there's the Shuffle some generation or other and up, there's the Nano from 4th generation and on up, and the iPod Touch some generation or other and up. The 5th generation Nano and iPod Touch both have VoiceOver, Apple's screen reader, while the earlier models use voice clips to voice the items, much as Rockbox has done it for years. However, some people find it necessary to spend the extra money for the jTunes scripts so that they can use iTunes, which you need in order to do anything with your MP3 player. So as you can probably see, the price starts to add up. These MP3 players will play whatever you download from iTunes and if you wish to transfer your own files to it, iTunes will convert your files to a file format the Apple MP3 player can play. I myself have used a 4th generation Nano and was not very impressed by the voiced menu items and what it did voice of the folders and files. I was extremely disappointed with the jerkiness of the touch pad, which is shaped like a scroll wheel but is stationery instead. I ended up making changes to the settings which my sighted son had to go in and change back for me. Needless to say, I sold these off very quickly. I don't think any of these MP3 players offer expandibility, an FM radio, or recording capability, except for the iPod Touch, which I believe offers some recording with a special headset with a microphone and some sort of FM which I believe plays stations that offer broadcasts over the internet, but I leave that to others who know more about these players than I. Personally, the only one that I would be interested in trying out is the iPod Touch, but I can't afford one. Regards, Laz You wrote: Well, the subject line asks the question.

Of all the iPods out there, of which there are probably more than half a dozen by now that do have some kind of synthetic speech, only one line, the Touch, and only two models, the 32- and 64-gig models, have VoiceOver.
