Re: Duck Hunt Game

Hi Raul and Jen. That's actually pretty stupid that they would take a 
game off just because it had the original sounds. If I remember 
correctly, they made a version of the popular arcade beat 'em up game 
called Double Dragon in the app store that has the original sounds from 
the Nintendo game so why hasn't that been pulled off the store?

Finding out How much iCloud space each App Uses

2012-12-14 Thread James Lee

Hi All,

I have ios 6.01, and I'm trying to find out how much space each app uses 
on iCloud backup.

I went to Settings, iCloud, Storage and Backup, Manage Storage, iPhone.
It shows total size, but it doesn't tell me how much each app uses. I 
can only find out certain app like camera, not every app that's switched 
on for backup. I guess I can turn off each app and check the next 
backup, but that would take forever. I understand that the list has the 
app that uses the most space on the top, but it'd be cool to be able to 
find out exactly how much.
I vaguely remember that VoiceOver told me how much space each app uses 
in previous ios. Is this bug  on ios 6.01?

Thanks for help,

JL

 Hi Scott,
 
 If I understand you correctly you are using the Sonos app, you select a Zone
 and then double tap on Music Library. You then select by artist, album,
 song or whatever, you see the songs and when you double tap on what you want
 to play you get the prompt Play Now or Play Next etc. Then you double
 tap on Play Now and nothing happens?
 
 Can you play music from this iPhone or anything from an internet radio
 station?
 
 There are lots of variables, it would be good to know if you can play
 anything either through the app or the desktop controller just so you are
 sure your sonos player works. If all else fails just call Sonos technical
 support, they are very helpful and usually very knowledgeable.
 
 
 Good luck,

Re: Fast Balance - Was Re: New HSBC APP

2012-12-14 Thread Kirsten Edmondson
I think I found it by searching for HSBC in the App Store. It might be UK only 
of course though.  I think it only came up with the name fast balance once you 
had downloaded, you know, one of those apps that changes its name annoyingly. 
It doesn't do much really, tells you how much you have, and gives you a few 
transactions I think, the last five. Apparently you can top up your phone with 
it, but I don't need to do that stuff never tried. The other annoying thing 
about it is, I have an HSBC credit card and I can't see how much I have on 
that. You can't do any transactions in anything or make any payments, but you 
can see what has come in and out of your bank very recently. To make it really 
worth while though, you have to check regularly, every two days maybe depending 
on the amount of action in your bank of course.

Yes, in Settings - Mail there's a setting for push/fetch. If you open

the schedule on which you want mail fetched from the server or set it to

RE: Trying to have itunes announce the number of songs in my library when I press insert 3 on my computer keyboard

2012-12-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Anna,

I know there shouldn't be a difference between the menus in iTunes here in
Canada and the States. But I read in an article about turning on/showing the
status bar and that you can do so by going to the View menu, but I also have
no such option in my View menu. Jen is also in Canada so this is strange. Is
it called Show Status Bar? What exactly is the wording and maybe you can
let me know the 2 options just before or the one before and the one after.

By the way, Jen, as a work-around you can find out how many songs you have
if you tab into the list view of all songs. Are you using Jaws? If so Jaws
should announce it as soon as you are in the list view, i.e. it will read
the first song title and so on and at the end it will say 1 of xxx where
xxx would be the total number of songs you have in your library.


Thanks,
Sieghard

Hi Jen,

Turn on the Status bar from the View menu. There's also a hotkey for this,
which is shown on the menu.

Best,

To get the free music offered by Starbucks, can I bipass my PC?  
Is it possible to just load the music onto my phone directly from 
the Starbucks link?

RE: Finding out How much iCloud space each App Uses

2012-12-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi James,

You can go here to see how much data is used by each app you have installed:

Settings
General
Usage

At the top you see the storage space of your device, both what's free and
what's used.
Next you see how much is used by your apps, I believe this is in the order
of most to least, e.g. for me Music shows up first with 25.8 Gigabytes, then
Audible with 1.8 Gigabytes etc.

You see I think 10 apps listed and then Show All Apps, double tap on it
and you can swipe through all your apps.

Below that is a heading iCloud and it also shows you total storage
available, 5 Gigabyte if you haven't purchased more, then what's available
and below that a Manage Storage button.

Now here it will tell you how much space is used for Backups.
After that you will hear James' iPhone, This iPhone (assuming that is what
your iPhone is called).
Double tap on that.
Now at the top you find information about when your last backup was and how
large it was, then you find Backup Options - Choose the data you want to
back up.
Below that it announces the size of the next backup and it is followed by a
listing of some of your apps, after the last one there is once again the
Show All Apps which if you double tap it does just that.
In this list you only see if the app is on or off, i.e. if it's included
in the iCloud backup (on) or not included (off).
If you turn an app off the size of the Next Backup goes down as long as
the app you turned off had data in it. I found that apps like Skype, Light
Detector, ColorVisor and so on can be included in the backup, but turning
them off makes more or less no difference because all that is being backup
up is maybe some settings which take almost no space. Apps that make a big
difference are Camera Roll, Audible (if you have downloaded lots of books)
and so on.


Regards,
Sieghard

Re: Help with iPad Mini

2012-12-14 Thread Rick Alfaro

Hi stacy.

This is an easy fix.

Go into settings then general.  Under general go into date and time. 
There's a button there that says set automatically and it's probably on, 
so toggle that to off.  Now go down to time zone and set it to New Yourk 
which is the only East coast listing available.  After you have done 
that, you can now set the adjust automatically toggle back to on and you 
should be good to go.  You don't have to redo your Mini setup.

Re: Free ap for today: Ringtone Architect

2012-12-14 Thread Sherrie
You can get the exact position to start and stop from iTunes.  I made numerous 
ring tones using iTunes and after I used my watch to time where I wanted to 
start and stop I discovered that if I pressed the space bar to pause the song 
where I wanted to start the ring tone and tabbed about 15 or so times it 
finally gets to a spot where it tells you exactly how far into the song you 
are.   After making note of this I then pressed the space bar again to start 
the music and paused it again where I wanted the ring tone to end. Then tab, 
tab, tab, 15 times to get the exact elapsed time. and I think the beginning of 
most songs do not contain the “good parts” that I want in my ring tones.  I 
found many different directions for making ring tones with iTunes and they 
don’t seem to involve much more fiddling than making them on the phone and then 
having to put them back on the computer before you can use them.

  Hi Robert,

   

  By default the app takes the first 40 seconds of a song. You can play that 40 
second portion of the song and, if you don’t like it, approximately figure out 
how many seconds into the song you want to start. If, for example, you think 
you want to start 6 seconds into the song, just change the start position to 6 
seconds, the duration will still be 40 seconds so when you play your selection 
it will play from 6 seconds to 46 seconds. Then you may decide that you have to 
nudge the start position a bit more ahead or back to make it sound good and you 
can do that because each tap on the  or  symbol only moves the position by 
one tenth of a second. Once you have it where you want it you can do the same 
to the end position. If the song fades out in the middle of a word and you want 
to make it a couple of seconds shorter you can just move the end position back, 
in my example instead of from 6 to 46 seconds you may want to go from 7 to 44 
seconds which will result in a ringtone that is 37 seconds long instead of the 
full 40 seconds you can have.

   

  Once you play around with it it’s really quite easy to do, it does require a 
lot of taps if you want to move the position by 8 or 10 seconds as you have to 
tap the  or  symbol ten times for each second, but if you split tap it’s 
pretty quick and it’s way more precise than using a slider.

   

   

  Regards,

  Sieghard

Apple Products Braille dispays

2012-12-14 Thread Traci
Hey all, I was wondering something with the braille displays and the devices 
they interact with. 

Who's decision is it when more functionality is added? Here's an example:

Adding a command to switch between keyboards.  Say if you had British English, 
American English, and emjoi keyboards, and you wanted to cycle through them.  
The braille command would be space bar dots 4 6.  Is it Apple or the braille 
display manufacture who adds this in? 

Thanks, I'm curious about it. :)

Subject: Apple Products  Braille dispays

Hey all, I was wondering something with the braille displays and the devices
they interact with. 

Who's decision is it when more functionality is added? Here's an example:

Adding a command to switch between keyboards.  Say if you had British
English, American English, and emjoi keyboards, and you wanted to cycle
through them.  The braille command would be space bar dots 4 6.  Is it Apple
or the braille display manufacture who adds this in? 

Thanks, I'm curious about it. :)

Aurifi? Can it be played with iOS 6.1?

Hi List:

My question is in the subject.  I have this game but haven't played it since
iOS 4.  I remember that at one time there was a problem with it working with
one of the iOS versions.  Has it been fixed?

Google Maps app

2012-12-14 Thread Chuck Dean
Hi all,
I have downloaded the new Google Maps app for iphone and have given it
a quick test run.

Note: I am not going to give details on how to use this app this
is best learned by playing with it.

Like the Apple maps app spoken directions only work in driving mode. I
tried to walk a route in driving mode, but the app took me about a
half mile out of the way, opting for more car friendly streets than
the most direct route.

Many of the buttons are vaguely labeled, but i could figure out what
their purpose was.

I tried the app while riding in the car. It worked very well, giving
options on routes and clear turn by turn directions.
The voice in this app is very good.

I have sent feedback via the app. Below is what I sent.

I downloaded the Google Maps app and I have a few suggestions.
I an visually impaired and use the voice over program to navigate the
iPhone. The Google maps app does work with the voice over program, and
worked well in driving mode. However, the walking mode is basically
useless for a visually impaired user, which is ironic, considering
that visually impaired users would utilize this feature more than any
other demographic..


Giving the walking mode spoken turn by turn directions would be a
great help to the visually impaired community. Also, having the
buttons more clearly labeled would aid in user friendliness.
Another suggestion would be to have the option to have every street
spoken as it is walked by. This would give the visually impaired user
assurance that they are on track, and also help them learn the
neighborhood
If you are interested in more input from me or other visually impaired
iPhone users, do not hesitate to contact me at: cadean...@gmail.com.
 Thank you,
Chuck Dean

The Ocado mobile app.

2012-12-14 Thread Sandra Heaton
Hi All,

Just updated the ocado app and I find it not very accessible.  I am really 
annoyed because I have done 3 shops on the mobile app and it was working 
perfectly well.  Just updated the latest version and I am totally lost with it. 
 Has anybody else tried this app at all and if you have, what do you make of 
it?  

I feel like I need to write a letter to them or something.  I thought when 
things were updated there should be improvements in this case, they have gone 
backwards.

I would appreciate any help or suggestions from any of you.

Thanks in advance.

take care all and a very merry Christmas.

Nice News App

2012-12-14 Thread Steve Sweeney
Hi All,

My Media Specialist told me I should take a look at an app called flipboard
all one word.  It is a news app that lets you choose the categories of news
you want then presents you with the headlines.  If you find one you want to
read just double tap on it and it opens and can be read with VO.  Flipboard
is quite accessible.  All the buttons work.  There is also a guide that I

the sound we are used to isn't there but the page does advance. There are
buttons at the top of the screen and the bottom of the screen.  I have to

RE: Nice News App

2012-12-14 Thread Cristobal
Flipboard is nice and you can link different accounts to it like your
Facebook profile, Twitter and so on. It's supposed to be similar to a
magazine so there's a big visual emphasis to it, but even then, it's still
pretty accessible. I believe that there's a democast on how to use it with
Voiceover out there on one of the technology blindcentric sites, but I
forgot which one. The iPad version works different than the iPhone version
though.

Hi All,

My Media Specialist told me I should take a look at an app called flipboard
all one word.  It is a news app that lets you choose the categories of news
you want then presents you with the headlines.  If you find one you want to
read just double tap on it and it opens and can be read with VO.  Flipboard
is quite accessible.  All the buttons work.  There is also a guide that I
haven't played with yet.  Three finger swipe to move down a page works but
the sound we are used to isn't there but the page does advance. There are

RE: Nice News App

2012-12-14 Thread Jana Schroeder
No, but you have to understand the concept behind Flipboard.  It's meant
to look for sighted people like a page that you cam flip upwards and see
the next page-like if you had a legal pad with the pages attached across
the top and you flipped each page upwards to see the next one.  The way to
see the next story is to do a three-finger flick upwards from the bottom
of the screen.

 

Hope this helps.
