RE: iDevices and license
Pablo, You can run your apps on multiple devices and in almost all cases updates are free. Often somebody has multiple iDevices such as an iPhone an iPad and an iPod Touch. If you buy an app like Prizmo or Fleksy (Navigon also except it won't work that well with an iPod Touch) you can install it on all your devices, in fact you can set up your devices so that if you buy an app on your iPhone it is automatically downloaded and installed on all your other iDevices whether that is an older iPhone, a second iPhone of the same version, an iPad or iPod Touch.

RE: voiceover during a call
Hi Pablo, There is an easy fix for Voiceover announcing the call duration when you are on a call. Just take your phone and flick once to the right, all you have to do is move Voiceover focus away from the call duration and it will stop announcing it. You should also write to accessibil...@apple.com because they really need to fix this. I wrote to them regarding that and was told this is the expected behavior, e.g. Voiceover announces the call duration as it changes. However, I don't think this should be the way it behaves, it would be like saying Voiceover continuously reads out the elapsed time or time remaining when a song is playing and it doesn't do that either.

I reported this to them and they replied with some suggestions, but they only consisted of the explanation about how to make sure speakerphone mode is properly activated which means they thought somehow the phone hadn't switched to speakerphone and this is why I couldn't hear Voiceover. I have no problem with my phone switching to speakerphone when I take it away from my ear. I am not sure if you have your phone in a case, but make sure you try it without case as sometimes a case can cover the proximity sensor and that is what causes your phone to switch to speakerphone. I usually do this: I dial the number I want to call and after I double tap on call I put my hand over the top part of the phone where the slot is in the glass for the earpiece. Once the phone on the other end starts ringing I remove my hand and now the proximity sensor should of course notice nothing is covering it and switch to speakerphone. However, I still have the volume issue. I have volume in my rotor settings and after a call connects I can turn up VO volume to 100% by turning the rotor to Volume and then flicking up until I get to 100%. Then I turn down the call volume to as low as it will go with the volume down button, but first of all the call volume does not seem to go lower than a certain level and Voiceover even at 100% can hardly be heard over the call volume. You can of course work around this by using a headset, but I definitely suggest you write to Apple Accessibility and report this because it seems to be one of those bugs which most iPhone 5 users and some iPhone 4S and 4 users also don't seem to have. I did a factory reset about 3 days after I updated to iOS 6 because of a few other issues and at first this seemed to be better, but after I tried to place calls where I had to enter numbers, listen to menus etc. a few times I find it really isn't much better if at all. As far as I am concerned this is one of the more inconvenient and serious bugs because

voiceover during a call and Apple Accessibility emails to me
Hi Alex and Grant, I also have this issue on my iPhone 4S with iOS 6 and you are correct, Grant, this was not a problem in iOS 5 and apparently it affects only a relatively small number of iOS 6 users right now. I had a pretty comprehensive email exchange with Apple Accessibility about this since I consider it a very annoying and important bug. I was told to try and switch off SIRI as apparently this is caused by something else using the audio on your iPhone. When I did turn off SIRI and made a speakerphone call to my credit card inquiry line at first there seemed to be little difference except that I seemed to be able to turn the call volume down way lower than before when pressing the volume down button during a call only lowered the volume slightly. However even with volume set to 100% using the rotor VO came out very quietly. I then turned the volume way up with the volume buttons and suddenly Voiceover came out loud if not exactly clear and it seems to fluctuate a lot for me when I press different numbers. Some are loud and clear and others are not so loud and a bit fuzzy. I then turned SIRI back on and experienced the same behavior. I reported this all back to Apple and was told in a reply that they are investigating this. Overall after I urned off SIRI and then turned it back on I can use the speakerphone a bit better, I just have to turn the volume up fairly loud with the volume buttons. I know VO volume is supposed to be independent from call volume and I can't do this if I am anywhere near people, but it's at least a bit better now and anybody who has problems with this please try turning up the call volume when on speakerphone, make sure you don't cover the top fo the phone with your hand as this causes the call to switch back to earpiece. I'd suggest you try it first before you turn off SIRI, but if it doesn't make a difference turn off SIRI and try it, then turn it back on and by all means, do report this to accessibil...@apple.com so they get a better understanding of the scope of this.

Re: Subtle noise when shaking iPhone 5?
Sieghard, Lucky you! I remember the slight rattle with my 4 and both my wife and I have a 4S with the slight rattle. I wonder if something like this could be related to specific batches of devices produced? Of course if the phone is in a case or if you have a screen protector could mask the rattle. Now I did try shaking my iPad and did not hear any rattle, but I am sure that is not a reasonable test since the manufacturing processes will be different.

Re: voiceover during a call
Hi, as a general habit when I'm on a call, I automatically touch the lower-left corner of the screen where the end button is. This way there is no extra verbiage and this way I can quickly double-tap the screen when I'm done talking. Yes, I know about 2-finger double-tap, but since I already focus the end button to avoid Voice Over speaking, it leaves it ready for me to hang up with one finger when I want to. -- Raul A.

Just take your phone and flick once to the right, all you have to do is move Voiceover focus away from the call duration and it will stop announcing it. You should also write to accessibil...@apple.com because they really need to fix this. I wrote to them regarding that and was told this is the expected behavior, e.g. Voiceover announces the call duration as it changes. However, I don't think this should be the way it behaves, it would be like saying Voiceover continuously reads out the elapsed time or time remaining when a song is playing and it doesn't do that either.

I reported this to them and they replied with some suggestions, but they only consisted of the explanation about how to make sure speakerphone mode is properly activated which means they thought somehow the phone hadn't switched to speakerphone and this is why I couldn't hear Voiceover. I have no problem with my phone switching to speakerphone when I take it away from my ear. I am not sure if you have your phone in a case, but make sure you try it without case as sometimes a case can cover the proximity sensor and that is what causes your phone to switch to speakerphone. I usually do this: I dial the number I want to call and after I double tap on call I put my hand over the top part of the phone where the slot is in the glass for the earpiece. Once the phone on the other end starts ringing I remove my hand and now the proximity sensor should of course notice nothing is covering it and switch to speakerphone. However, I still have the volume issue. I have volume in my rotor settings and after a call connects I can turn up VO volume to 100% by turning the rotor to Volume and then flicking up until I get to 100%. Then I turn down the call volume to as low as it will go with the volume down button, but first of all the call volume does not seem to go lower than a certain level and Voiceover even at 100% can hardly be heard over the call volume. You can of course work around
RE: iTunes Match - To use it or not to use it, that is the question
Hi, I agree with the previous poster, I also have just a bit over 15000 songs, and I'd like to be able to access that wherever I am. Keep in mind, however, that under iOS 6, you can stream tracks without the device downloading them as they play, but there's a really stupid limitation that's in place, where you can't download single tracks, just albums or playlists to the phone. I still absolutely love the service, and will continue to renew each year. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of ShamelessFanGirl Sent: Saturday, October 20, 2012 12:14 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: iTunes Match - To use it or not to use it, that is the question Good evening/very early morning all, Having recently signed up for this service myself, I can tell you firsthand what motivated me to go for iTunes Match, after doing a goodly bit of fence-riding for the last year while trying to make up my mind. I have a library of just under 15000 songs, and found myself wanting that collection at my fingertips at all times, rather than needing to access it from my computer only. True enough I have a 64 GB phone, but do a lot of audiobooks, thus, space is a problem, and iTunes Match provided me a way of having the best of both worlds. It's doubly convenient, because you have the option to download your tracks from the cloud, if you know you'll be without net access, so again, provides the best of both the streaming, and physical media worlds. To the original poster: I'm in agreement with what everyone else has said here, in that I don't think you'd get much out of the service for the reasons already outlined.Unlike yours truly, it sounds as if you manage the space on your phone wisely. :D Have fun all, and as always, take care.

However if others use it, friends, family, etc, I support them. My reasons for not using it is because I get the same functionality from AudioGalaxy. Yes, I probably avoid the 256 encoding it offers, but that's not important to me. With AudioGalaxy I have access to all of my music and I'm not limited to the 25 thousand songs that you would be with iTunes Match. If I want to hear music I don't have in my own collection then I can use Pandora or Songza as alternatives. If I'm traveling and won't have access to the cloud, then I can easily keep around 5 or 10 gb of music on my phone, not using iTunes Match, and have access to local songs that way. So, for me it's just not worth it. -- Raul A.

I have approx. 280 CD's and a bit of other music which I mostly purchased from iTunes, a total of just under 3,800 songs. I ripped all my CD's using the FLAC lossless format and I keep these files on a network drive so I can access it with my Sonos system. I chose to use the lossless system because storage space is cheap and not an issue, my entire collection takes up about 100 Gig. I then used the batch conversion feature of DB Power Amp to convert everything from the lossless format to M4A at 256 Kbps and I have that in my iTunes Media Folder on my laptop for syncing to my iPhone. At 256 Kbps my lossless collection shrunk to about 23 or so Gb which easily fit on my 64 Gig iPhone 4S with lots of room to spare for apps, audio books and the occasional photos and videos. My question is whether I'd actually get anything out of using iTunes Match. If I do turn it on and my iTunes library is matched and what is not is uploaded, will I then manually have to download it to the phone again? I do like a local copy of everything on the phone because I can't stream if, for example, I am on a plane or on holidays in a country where maybe I don't have data and in any case, I use very little data hence have only a very small data plan. I assume I can download all my music again to my phone and maybe the one advantage I can see is that if I ever had to reset my phone or got a new phone my music would be downloaded from the cloud and I wouldn't have to connect to my laptop. Of course it takes a lot longer as well to download 25 Gig from the cloud than to sync it via iTunes. Maybe some of you iCloud experts can tell me if there are other reasons why I might want to use it or maybe you can just confirm that in my case there really is no benefit to using it since my phone is plenty big enough to hold my music collection and I sync the entire collection anyways.

I reported this to them and they replied with some suggestions, but they only consisted of the explanation about how to make sure speakerphone mode is properly activated which means they thought somehow the phone hadn't switched to speakerphone and this is why I couldn't hear Voiceover. I have no problem with my phone switching to speakerphone when I take it away from my ear. I am not sure if you have your phone in a case, but make sure you try it without case as sometimes a case can cover the proximity sensor and that is what causes your phone to switch to speakerphone. I usually do this: I dial the number I want to call and after I double tap on call I put my hand over the top part of the phone where the slot is in the glass for the earpiece. Once the phone on the other end starts ringing I remove my hand and now the proximity sensor should of course notice nothing is covering it and switch to speakerphone. However, I still have the volume issue. I have volume in my rotor settings

You can switch on a digital display and / or a hand that ticks away the seconds - features that they neglected to include when they built the real McCoy that's towered over the houses of parliament for the past 150 years. G'wan, treat yourself - you know you want to, really. It's a daft bit of fun and it'll only set you back a modest 59 pennies, luv.

Re: Big Ben link and developer
Hello Richard. I downloaded Big Ben from the link you pasted in another mail. Since putting it on my phone, the App has not worked yet. I opened it, turned Tick Tock off but did not switch the quarterly chimes on. So as yet, even though a couple of hours has passed, not a peep from Big Ben. So how is it supposed to work? Also, when Do not Disturb comes on at night, will it stop? How do you put a schedule on it as I see nothing like that. Thank you very much Richard. Kawal.

Re: Whereto and restaurant menus
Richard, I see the problem. Some restaurants have a button labeled menu Main Menu; however, in every case when tapping this button I am informed there are no menus. :) So, I found the option for the menus, but not even the big chain joints seem to have menus for some reason. At least I know where to find that option should it be available.

RE: iPod Touch fifth generation problem
This is only a guess, as my 5th generation touch won't be here until Tuesday, but did you try rebooting the computer while the touch is plugged in to see if it recognizes it when it comes back up? Then, when you open iTunes, are you planning to set it up as a new device, or restore it from a backup? I was planning on calling Apple when I get mine and having them talk me through the steps, if things don't work as I think they might.

Re: iPod Touch fifth generation problem
Richard, When you get that 5th gen Touch, please let us know what you think of the speaker as compared with the speaker on your present model. I think you and I may have the same, 3rd gen touch. I'm hoping that the speaker is a little improved on this new one but haven't made it to the Mac store to check that out. I'm kind of waiting on the iPad mini announcement to see what it offers versus the new Touch, and one of the things that would really make me look hard at the Touch would be if the speaker were more or less on par with the one in the 4S. I suppose that's a small thing, but for me, that 3rd gen Touch speaker got to be a real drag. Sure there is airplay and there are docks. But sometimes it is just nice to have the device by itself.

Now you can get the time of day in style with a fully functional miniaturised Big Ben on your iPhone or iPad. Britannia rules. A throwback to a more innocent time. Back in the 1980s, an idealistic young developer with too much time on his hands created a revolutionary program for the fledgling Apple Macintosh platform. It simulated a famous Westminster clock tower in 256 glorious shades of grey. Those being simpler days, the Mac community gasped in awe at this ticking, tocking, bonging marvel and it was greeted with a level of enthusiasm not seen since the invention of penicillin. The developer's name was Riccardo Ettore and the software was snappily titled Big Ben . Today, we're pleased to offer you a revamped, rather more colourful incarnation - updated for the 21st century and ported to a magical device that's considerably easier to carry around than a Macintosh SE 30. Big Ben for iOS puts one of London's most cherished timekeeping landmarks right in your pocket, replete with authentic Westminster chimes that ring out on the hour, on the half hour and on the quarter hour. That's not all: if you enjoy tweaking things to your liking, you'll be pleased to learn we included some additional options. You can switch on a digital display and / or a hand that ticks away the seconds - features that they neglected to include when they built the real McCoy that's towered over the houses of parliament for the past 150 years.

Re: iDevices and license
The licenses are tied to your Apple ID in a very similar way that some media, such as audiobooks, are. Since you do have to sign in using your Apple ID, you shouldn't share apps with friends although you're welcome to use and reuse them on any devices you own. It's a brilliant licensing model if you think about it: it does protect the rights of developers while at the same time being a lot more transparent and user friendly than some other licensing schemes are.

Re: questin about navigating emails using iphone gestures
I constantly state that blind iOS users need to learn all the Voice-Over commands. Go to settings, general, accessibility VoiceOver, practice area, and touch the middle of the display to place yourself in the practice area. Now, until you either double-tap / split-tap on the done button which you can find by moving your finger around the display, or by pressing the home button to return to the home screen, every gesture you perform will cause VO to announce the gesture and then speak its function(s). Go practice and learn until you know all the gestures. I usually never carry a keyboard with me. The gestures are: Touch the screen split-tap One, two, and three finger single, double, and triple taps (if you activate zoom or assistive touch at the same time, add another tap so it goes to four taps) Four finger touch with the majority of the fingers on the top half or the bottom half of the display One, two, and three finger vertical or horizontal swipes/flicks (its the same thing) (finger alignment with each other does not matter, just all fingers moving in the same direction, and enough space between each finger so VO detects the individual fingers) The rotor - turning two fingers anywhere on the display like turning a virtual knob The pinch - moving two fingers/thumb and finger closer together or further apart The two-finger scrub - moving two fingers back and forth either horizontally or vertically One or two finger double-tap and hold The single-finger slide - actually, a normal gesture for iOS which VO also tracks. The iOS gestures are solidly in the iPhone. If you find that VO is announcing something different than what you believe you are doing, you are in error. It is like pressing control x on your keyboard when you wanted to press control c. Finally, be aware that, save for touching the screen to find something, All VO gestures activate when you remove your fingers from the display.

Great little app that I just installed. I have been looking for something like this, and finally stumbled on it. Simply installed the Tonido Desktop.exe file, installed and ran the .exe file, created an account, then installed the Tonido app onto my iPod, signed into the app with my account details and was able to access my whole entire computer.

Does anyone know how to either update the firmware or from where to get the update file? I have searched and searched Freedom's site but can't locate anything. I'm hoping there will be some improved functionality on either the Mac or iOS. Thank you, Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

List Recorder Full version direct download available
Hi listers, List Recorder can now be downloaded as a full version in one step. In the past you needed to download the light app and then do an in app upgrade to receive the full version. Now those who want to just purchase the full version can do so. Be sure to download the version that says List Recorder Full. One bonus for those who go right to the full version is that it is $7.99 so it is a dollar less then purchasing the light version then doing the in app upgrade. Those who just want to spend a dollar to try it first still have that option using the original List Recorder app. One thing to be careful of. If you are using list Recorder in the .99 cent version then decide to upgrade be sure to do that as a in app upgrade or you will not be keeping the data in the new app. List Recorder and List Recorder Full are considered two different apps.

recording phone calls with List Recorder
Hi Listers, Recently I needed to record information being given to me over the phone. I opened List Recorder while the phone was in speaker phone mode. to my surprise when I started recording I found I was able to get a very respectable recording of the entire conversation. Has anyone found this works in Skype as well? I'm sure it will not work with earphones but still I thought this was a handy discovery.

Re: question about the lg hbs730 bluetooth headset.
Hi Melissa List; Well, I just bought a plantronics Bluetooth Legend earpiece It is without a doubt the clearest one I've ever heard. Their is no static at all! It's not stereo but, it actually has the sound of a full sized headset. When I worked for Verizon, we used their wired headsets exclusively. And, the Bluetooth headset sounds as good if not better. You could probably find it on amazon for around $100. And, it gives you the battery life and, it allows you the ability to answer the call by using the word answer.

Re: iPod Touch fifth generation sound quality.
Good evening everyone, I visited an Apple store on Wednesday to have Apple care put onto my iPhone, and had the pleasure of playing with just this beast. The sound quality is in fact much improved, and while I don't think I'd call it on par with the iPhone, it definitely sounds 1000% better than earlier iPod Touch versions. I liked it so much that I'm considering purchasing one, however, like others, am holding out to see what the iPad mini has in store for us. Physically, the new Touch is taller, and narrower than the 3rd and 4th generation devices, and it has traded the chrome backing for an aluminum look, which I like very much. It comes in a multitude of different colors too, which also appeals; I'm considering the blue. Like the iPhone5, it gives us access to the extra row of icons, and I'd assume the additional 4 apps per folder. Processor is much improved, and I love the allowance for a wrist strap located in the lower right corner on the back. In short, very nicely improved.

Re: iPod Touch fifth generation sound quality.
Thank you. I wanted to wait to hear from someone that has played around with the iPod 5th gen before spending the money on one. I didn't want to buy one only to find that the sound quality was as poor as it is on the iPod 4th gen. I want the 64GB and $399 is a lot to spend only to find it is no improvement. -Original Message- From: ShamelessFanGirl Sent: Saturday, October 20, 2012 10:04 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: iPod Touch fifth generation sound quality.
