Hello Cait,

If  you set your region format to Canada you can have either Daniel or
Samantha. I of course prefer Samantha and while Karen, the Australian voice,
is also nice, I still prefer the HQ Samantha voice.

Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: Re: automatic language switching in ios is brilliant

Well, I'm in Canada, and I switched my region to Ireland to get the default
voice I wanted and it hasn't seemed to mess with the calendar or location.
It did change the time format to 24 hour, but I can handle that, prefer it,
in fact.  what made me do this is because I had the irish voice in my router
and every time I turned my phone back on it defaulted back to Daniel since I
have my default to british english since I'm in Canada.  It was irritating.

I guess all you can do is try it and see if it messes up anything you find
important.  If it does, you can always switch back, right?  Not trying to
sound caviller..
hth,
Caitlyn

 Bret, can't you just  not have any languages other than English in
your language rotor to deal with the problem on ios? I have an android
device and ios devices, and the ability to read multiple languages in the
same document is simply not present in Android at this time. Plus, changing
from one language to another is much messier under Android than it is with
the language settings in ios. Apple did a really good job for those of us
who want to use more than one language.

Re: A Mystery with my iPad Mini

This means you are double-tapping with two fingers. Go to settings, general, 
voice-over, practice area and practice the various gestures. iOS will tell you 
what you are actually doing rather than what you think you are doing.

 Greetings and Happy Holidays!
 
 My name is Caleb, and I'm one of the developers of a new iPhone app 
 called BrailleTouch. BrailleTouch allows you to type using braille on 
 your touchscreen, and is based on the standard six key braille keyboard. 
 We are excited to announce that BrailleTouch will be on the App Store by 
 the end of January! We hope that you will like BrailleTouch and find it 
 useful. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, and I've included 
 some more information about the app below.
 
 With BrailleTouch, you can send text messages, emails, and tweets from 
 the touchscreen braille keyboard. You can also copy text you type in 
 braille to the clipboard and paste it into other apps on your iPhone. 
 There is a free version of BrailleTouch, so you can try it before you buy 
 it. The free version lets you type in braille and hear the text you 
 entered. Many braille instructors have told us that they would like to 
 use BrailleTouch as a teaching tool, which the free version will support. 
 Additional features are available as In App Purchases. The Messaging 
 Upgrade allows you to send text messages, emails, and tweets from the 
 touchscreen braille keyboard. The Clipboard Upgrade allows you to copy 
 text from the touchscreen braille keyboard and paste it into other apps 
 on your iPhone.
 
 BrailleTouch is based on research conducted at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, 
 Georgia, USA, where I am a graduate student. My colleagues and I tested 
 the software with eleven volunteers who are blind. We found that people 
 who knew the standard Perkins braille keyboard were able to master 
 BrailleTouch within an hour of practice and type at an average of 23 
 words per minute using Grade 1 braille. We received such positive 
 feedback that we were inspired to take this research out of the 
 laboratory and release BrailleTouch to the public. We hope this software 
 will provide a helpful alternative to the VoiceOver split tap keyboard, 
 and that it will help improve the mobile computing experience for people 
 in the blind community who use an iPhone.
 
 BrailleTouch is fully compatible with VoiceOver. It works on the iPhone 
 3GS through the iPhone 5, iPod touch models since the 3rd generation, and 
 requires iOS 5.0 or a later operating system. BrailleTouch is only for 
 the iPhone and iPod touch, and is not supported on the iPad. The first 
 release is based on North American English Grade 1 Uncontracted Braille. 
 You can choose to hear speech feedback for each character you type, each 
 word you type, or both.
 
 More information about BrailleTouch is available on our website:
 http://brailletouchapp.com/
 
 The website includes a User Guide and Frequently Asked Questions. You can 
 also sign up for our email list, and we will notify you when we have an 
 exact release date in January for the app.
 
 We are also on Twitter:
 https://twitter.com/brailletouch
 
 With the free version of BrailleTouch, you can try out the touchscreen 
 braille keyboard and hear the text that you typed read back to you. The 
 Messaging Upgrade allows you to send text messages, emails, and tweets, 
 and costs US$9.99. The Clipboard Upgrade allows you to copy text from the 
 braille keyboard to paste into other apps, and costs US$9.99. You must 
 have the Messaging Upgrade first before you can get the Clipboard 
 Upgrade.
 
 I am happy to answer any questions you may have. We are very excited 
 about the upcoming release of BrailleTouch on the App Store. I hope that 
 you will like BrailleTouch and find it useful.
 
 Best wishes and happy holidays,
 Caleb
 The BrailleTouch Team

Hello All, 

I purchased list recorder lite for my iPhone a couple of years ago. 
Last March, I bought an iPad3, and synched all the apps on my iPhone4S with
my iPad3, including list recorder lite, which still works fine on the iPad3.


A couple days ago, on my iPhone, I purchased List Recorder full from the app
store. It works fine on my iPhone.

Last night, on my iPad, I installed list recorder full from the app store,
(it installed without charging me). However, when I open the app, none of
the buttons work, not even the get help button. I can't do anything with
list recorder full on my iPad. 

I have deleted and reinstalled the app a number of times, but I get the same
results, the app opens, but none of the buttons work. They are not dimmed,
they just don't work. 

I have tried to repurchase list recorder full from my iPad, but the app
store won't let me.

I have open list recorder lite on the iPad(it still works), went into help
and upgrade, but the option to purchase list recorder full is dimmed.
 
I would appreciate any help with this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

I will have to try it, however, I normally use a braille display with my I 
phone.  Type-in-Braille was what I was referring to. In the past when I tried 
that one, I found it very difficult to use because when you pressed a 
combination of letters, the keys use to stay down and so the correct letters 
never got written as I could never understand what to do with it. How different 
will this be, will the keys instantly come up as if you were typing on a 
perkins? How will we know that a letter has been completed, will Voice Over 
just anounce it and we know that it's been done? I encourage you to get  grade 
2 out as soon as possible.

Kawal.

 Hi Kawal,
 
 Which other braille typing app are you referring to.
 
 BrailleTouch is very different from TypeInBraille. You can type on 
 BrailleTouch with the same six fingers you use on a Perkins-style keyboard. 
 Our testers were able to transfer their skills from a standard Braille 
 keyboard to BrailleTouch in less than an hour of practice and type an average 
 of 23 words per minute.
 
 The other app is Type Brailler Learn Braille. BrailleTouch has a similar 
 keyboard layout. But BrailleTouch is fully compatible with VoiceOver, and you 
 do not have to set your hand location before typing. BrailleTouch is also 
 designed to let you quickly send text messages, emails, tweets, or copy text 
 to the clipboard directly from the braille keyboard.
 
 I hope this helps.

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

2012-12-31 Thread BrailleTouch

Hi Kawal,

With BrailleTouch, you type each braille chord on your touchscreen with the 
same six fingers you would use on a Perkins Brailler or similar keyboard. 
The app will speak each character you type immediately. You can also choose 
to hear each word you type, or both characters and words, from VoiceOver. 
BrailleTouch reads each character as soon as you lift your fingers off the 
touchscreen. Grade 2 is our top priority for a future update.

Best,
Caleb

RE: Podcast question

2012-12-31 Thread Sandy Finley

Grant, what you want to do is not a Windows function; it is controlled
through your particular podcast app. I personally use Downcast and have
found I can control which podcasts are downloaded. I have it set to download
new content for my specified ppodcasts every time I open it.  Then I have it
deleting all played podcasts. You can control the playback speed and have it
play continuously. And if you stop mid-podcast it remembers where you were
when you go back.

If you find them helpful, there is a tutorial podcast on AppleVis. HTH.

 Is there a way to force iTunes for Windows to download all the

 if not. I realize that new episodes can all be downloaded

Re: BuzzMem - Memory Game with Vibrations

2012-12-31 Thread Sherrie

I like this game, Buzz mem.  It is quick to play.  I would like to see it 
remember my best score so I can compete against myself.  I don’t care about 
game center, twitter, or Facebook.  In fact, I hate it when people post game 
updates and such on my Facebook! Maybe I just want to compete against myself so 
I can actually win! LOL.

Subject: BuzzMem - Memory Game with Vibrations

I have created an iPhone game for a blind friend. The whole idea was to 
make a game to make players with and without vision equal. Not a just a game 
that can be played by visually impaired people too. 
The game is a memory game based on vibration patterns. It fully supports 
VoiceOver.

You can download the game in the App Store 
https://itunes.apple.com/app/buzzmem/id579628791 or read more about the 
creation process on my blog http://www.mczonk.de/2012/12/buzzmem/ .


I hope you like it. Please provide feedback what I could improve.

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

type in braille is quite different from what I understand brailletouch will be. 
It usually took more than one tap to do a letter; for instance, l was three 
taps on the left; letters were broken up into components depending on where the 
dots of the cell fell. With this, if I understand correctly, a letter will take 
only one tap because you will tap with all the fingers involved in the letter 
at once. So, for instance, the letterl will be one tap but with your second, 
third and forth fingers on your left hand all together.

 Hi Kawal,
 
 Which other braille typing app are you referring to.
 
 BrailleTouch is very different from TypeInBraille. You can type on 
 BrailleTouch with the same six fingers you use on a Perkins-style keyboard. 
 Our testers were able to transfer their skills from a standard Braille 
 keyboard to BrailleTouch in less than an hour of practice and type an 
 average of 23 words per minute.
 
 The other app is Type Brailler Learn Braille. BrailleTouch has a similar 
 keyboard layout. But BrailleTouch is fully compatible with VoiceOver, and 
 you do not have to set your hand location before typing. BrailleTouch is 
 also designed to let you quickly send text messages, emails, tweets, or copy 
 text to the clipboard directly from the braille keyboard.
 
 I hope this helps.

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

Yes, this is another thing I like about BrailleTouch compared to Fleksy and 
Type In Braille (btw I got fairly fast with Type in Braille so I'm expecting to 
do quite well with BrailleTouch as it will be much more straightforward). I 
like hearing my letters when I type them and not having to flick or swipe or 
anything to check what i wrote. The thing is: I can visualize (or maybe 
tactilize!) what it would feel like to do the Perkins braille combinations with 
my fingers on the phone so half the battle of learning to do this is already 
conquered. I know it will still be a bit different when I actually get the app, 
but I've been sitting holding my locked phone in what I believe is the right 
position and tapping my fingers down in the right combinations for practice. 
Okay, I suppose that sounds rather crazy, but I'm really anticipating this app 
and want to be as ready as possible when it comes out!

 With BrailleTouch, you type each braille chord on your touchscreen with the

 hear each word you type, or both characters and words, from VoiceOver. 
 BrailleTouch reads each character as soon as you lift your fingers off the

Upgraded to 4s

2012-12-31 Thread Tessa

I recently got a 4s but still have my 4. They just took the card from the 4
and put it in the 4s. I had backed up my old phone and then hooked up the
new to itunes and it eventually copied  my apps and such over.
1 I had entered several contacts on the old phone which never got transfered
to the new, someone would call me and then I'd put their name and number in
the contact list. Why didn't these get copied over?
2 My apps on the old phone are much more organized than on the new. I can
still use the old one and sometimes try out some of my old apps and then
delte them. I've also been trying out apps on the new phone and deleting the
ones  that aren't accessible. I downloaded a whole bunch just for testing
purposes and haven't got through them yet.
Can I delete apps from the old or the new phone and have the same apps
deleted from the other phone. Yes it does seem a bit senseless to have two
devices doing the same thing but I haven't decided what to do with the old
phone yet.
I do have wireless here at home and my old phone can connect to my mom's
wireless though they don't know their password so my new one can't LOL. Is
there a way to see the password on my old phone or is that hidden for
security.
Thanks for any thoughts on the issues

Re: Gmail Account on iPhone4 is Rejecting Posts to the Group

I don't think, though I could be wrong, that the server rejects on the basis of 
whether your message comes from your phone or your pc. I know this is going to 
sound like asking the obvious, but are you using the same email address on your 
phone as on your pc and if not, is the email address on your phone subscribed 
to the list? Also, does the rejection notice indicate a reason for the 
rejection?

BrailleTouch App cost comparison

2012-12-31 Thread Eileen Misrahi

Hello, 

If this was posted, please forgive me. I am having some difficulty emailing
from the phone. If this app will do what it says, then I will definitely
support the app and purchase it. That is the bottom line for me. I would
like to point out that some of the individuals that may be concerned about
the cost, may have purchase either Read2Go or Digit-Eyes. Both of these
apps cost $20 to have them installed on our iDevices. I use both of these
apps extensively, and they were worth every cent that I spent. For those
that do not have the resources to purchase a braille display or braille note

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

Caleb,

Are you planning on releasing Braille Touch for iPad, or is it not possible?

 Hi Kawal,
 
 With BrailleTouch, you type each braille chord on your touchscreen with the 
 same six fingers you would use on a Perkins Brailler or similar keyboard. The 
 app will speak each character you type immediately. You can also choose to 
 hear each word you type, or both characters and words, from VoiceOver. 
 BrailleTouch reads each character as soon as you lift your fingers off the 
 touchscreen. Grade 2 is our top priority for a future update.

RE: Battery for 4S

I did reply to your initial post that apart from implementing some of these
power saving tricks, your two options are either an external battery or a
battery case. As for battery cases, most of the ones I have seen are
basically the same, the phone slides in and the battery is usually behind
the phone. These do add to the thickness of the phone more than the size and
you just have to do your research as to which one you want. With people on
this list living all over the world it's hard to make a specific
recommendation and then maybe the product isn't available. Amazon, the Apple
Store (online or retail stores), Best Buy, Radio Shack, any of these places
will have battery packs/cases. In a way Amazon and the Apple Store online
have the advantage that the products have ratings and you can read user
reviews.

I am not sure which iPhone you have, but you want a battery pack that has at
least the same capacity or more than the capacity of your iPhone's battery.
Most battery cases seem to be in the 1,400 to 2,100 MA capacity and while
the ones with a larger capacity may be slightly thicker I would opt for one
that has at least 1,900 or 2,000 MA which means you should get one full
charge and change out of it. Below are the battery specs for the iPhone 4,
4S and 5, in addition to Millie Amps batteries usually also have a WH or WHR
rating, that stands for Watt Hours and while I am not a physisist, you can
compare that number for the iPhone against that of the battery case if it is
given.

iPhone 4:   1,400 MA, 4.8 WHr
iPhone 4S:  1,432 MA, 5.3 WHr
iPhone 5:   1,445 MA, 5.45 WHr

RE: Upgraded to 4s

Hi Tessa,

Starting at the end of your post, the WiFi password cannot be viewed.
Depending on which router they have, you can see the WiFi password and
change it if you know how to log on to the router, but that of course
requires a password as well. If your parents never changed it, then you can
find out what the default router password is by doing a Google search for
your brand/model of router, often a particular brand uses the same default
password. For example, Netgear routers usually use admin as the user name
and password as the password. Of course this is supposed to be changed by
the user, but you'd be surprised how many users never do change this. If you
can't log on to the router you could do a factory reset of the router (there
is usually a Pinhole in the back and you poke a paper clip or something like
that into it). Of course this would wipe out any custom settings. You will
also need the routers Ip address, once again, this is brand specific. Many
use 192.168.0.1, some use 192.168.1.1 (Netgear) and there maybe others.

OK, now as far as your apps are concerned, you can keep your phones in sync
if you use the same Apple Id on both phones and if you go into Settings
and Store and tell both phones to automatically sync apps then if you
delete an app on one phone it will also delete from the other phone, if you
buy an app on one phone it will also appear on the other phone. Of course if
you want to have separate apps, music and so on on each phone you should not
enable this.

If your iPhone 4 is still in good condition you could ask your provider to
give you unlock instructions which they should do if the phone is no longer
under contract. Then you can unlock it which would allow you to easily sell
it. You can google iPhone 4 resale values or something like to get an idea
what they are going for.

Sieghard

Subject: Upgraded to 4s

I recently got a 4s but still have my 4. They just took the card from the 4
and put it in the 4s. I had backed up my old phone and then hooked up the
new to itunes and it eventually copied  my apps and such over.
1 I had entered several contacts on the old phone which never got transfered
to the new, someone would call me and then I'd put their name and number in
the contact list. Why didn't these get copied over?
2 My apps on the old phone are much more organized than on the new. I can
still use the old one and sometimes try out some of my old apps and then
delte them. I've also been trying out apps on the new phone and deleting the
ones  that aren't accessible. I downloaded a whole bunch just for testing
purposes and haven't got through them yet.
Can I delete apps from the old or the new phone and have the same apps
deleted from the other phone. Yes it does seem a bit senseless to have two
devices doing the same thing but I haven't decided what to do with the old
phone yet.
I do have wireless here at home and my old phone can connect to my mom's
wireless though they don't know their password so my new one can't LOL. Is
there a way to see the password on my old phone or is that hidden for
security.
Thanks for any thoughts on the issues

From any screen generally, it is possible to do a double tap with two fingers

So this can even happen from the home screen, is it possible that you are doing

Re: You can by apple products in the UK VAT free if your blind.

2012-12-31 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav

Gina,

Two thins of note;

Apple could never claim, nor could we, that their products were originally
designed for the blindness market. Its in none of their marketing materials
etc, Apple have specifically designed this for blind users and not sighted ones
etc.

Secondly, having pushed Apple hard on this, that is , why some stores do it,
and others do not. I have received an e-mail from them last week confirming
that an error had been made at certain stores… That Apple would pay the VAT on
the orders to date that they should not have let through, and that they would
not be making this clear mistake into the future.

I rang the store that I had got the VAT off of only four weeks ago, and asked
to speak to the same employee… Without indicating that I knew that things in
theory had changed, I asked if I could come back and buy another Mac… He
stated, not with VAT nil rated, that they had receive a directive from head
office, explaining that they had been breaching VAT regulations and that they
could no longer nil rate VAT.

so that, as they say is that.

What concerns me is that some potential recipients on this list and the

helping each other and share the names of those stores that provide the

Hi, appologies as the only messages I've seen on this subject are those
below. But I thought this might clarify the fact that Apple products
wouldn't be covered for zero vat as they weren't specifically designed
for disabled people. The link to the page on the HMRC site is below.

4.5 Other equipment and appliances “designed solely” for use by a
disabled person

4.5.1 General

You can zero rate the supply to an eligible customer as detailed in
paragraph 3.1 of any other equipment and appliances that have been
designed solely for use by disabled people.

It is not sufficient for zero-rating that the equipment or appliance is
merely destined or intended for use by a disabled person, or is mainly
purchased by disabled persons. For example, general purpose equipment
such as most computer hardware, ordinary or orthopaedic beds,
orthopaedic or reclining chairs may benefit a disabled person, but are
designed for general use or for use by disabled and able bodied people
alike. Such products are not eligible for relief.

Equipment which has been designed solely for use by a disabled people
will remain eligible for relief even though they are available to be
purchased by people who do not have a disability. VAT relief will
however only apply to supplies which are made to eligible persons or
bodies as detailed in paragraph 3.1.

4.5.2 Meaning of “designed solely for use by a disabled person”

This means the original intention of the designer was to produce
equipment or an appliance designed solely to meet the needs of persons
with one or more disabilities. The design must succeed in that the
product does in fact meet the needs of disabled persons. There are a
number of conditions which may, but do not invariably result in
disability - such as:
◾ asthma;
◾ psoriasis; and
◾ dyslexia.

Equipment which meets the needs of people with such a condition will
only qualify for zero-rating if designed solely for the purpose of
meeting the needs of disabled sufferers of the condition.

Laura,

Conflicting is not the word for it…

I personally myself went into Apple Regents Street London, and bought 4
iPad's, 3 Mini's and a 4th Gen, and paid no VAT for any of them.

The senior cashier specifically told me that the information could be

Tax exemptions, was: You can by apple products in the UK VAT free if your blind.

Hi List,

 

The topic about taxes on Apple products especially in the UK where there is a 
very high VAT has come up again and again over the last couple of months. I 
just wanted to comment that it should be up to organisations like the RNIB in 
the UK, the CNIB in Canada, the NFB in the States and so on to sort this out 
with the government. In a way I would argue that even though a Mac or an iPhone 
is not specifically made for the blind, Apple has invested a lot of money and 
effort to make it into a device for the blind and, as a rule, a much less 
expensive device than products specifically designed for the blind. This could 
be easily regulated by setting straight forward rules for when a person could 
obtain a tax exemption, e.g. it could be done by providing a certificate from a 
Doctor stating that the person really is blind and entitled for the exemption. 
You would then take this to the Apple Store to get your product without paying 
taxes.

Are you able to find actual text with VoiceOver?
They provide Pride and Prejudice with the free version but all I could find
on the screen with VoiceOver was the word text and it would begin reading,
but I could not get VoiceOver to focus on any of the text it was reading.
So, I am not sure how a VoiceOver user is supposed to set bookmarks or look

Hi Mary,
At least for me, this app is better than ibooks for reading documents

Re: voice dream reader

I have been using my braille display and thus far everything is accessible.

I deleted pride and Prejudice. I have written to the developer and have asked 
for I book support. I want for a voice to read I books for me.

 Are you able to find actual text with VoiceOver?
 They provide Pride and Prejudice with the free version but all I could find
 on the screen with VoiceOver was the word text and it would begin reading,
 but I could not get VoiceOver to focus on any of the text it was reading.
 So, I am not sure how a VoiceOver user is supposed to set bookmarks or look
 up definitions.  Am I missing something obvious?

Re: Tax exemptions, was: You can by apple products in the UK VAT free if your blind.

2012-12-31 Thread harmony . neil

Don't know if anyone's mentioned this, but I've heard that all the apple 
products blind people in the UK can be exempt from VAT or whatever it is if 
they buy fom the Apple stores.  All their products except the iPhone itelf 
apparently.  I don't know why or if it's true, but that's just what I was told 
by a friend a few days ago.

On 31 Dec 2012, at 5:34 PM, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote:

 Hi List,
  
 The topic about taxes on Apple products especially in the UK where there is a 
 very high VAT has come up again and again over the last couple of months. I 
 just wanted to comment that it should be up to organisations like the RNIB in 
 the UK, the CNIB in Canada, the NFB in the States and so on to sort this out 
 with the government. In a way I would argue that even though a Mac or an 
 iPhone is not specifically made for the blind, Apple has invested a lot of 
 money and effort to make it into a device for the blind and, as a rule, a 
 much less expensive device than products specifically designed for the blind. 
 This could be easily regulated by setting straight forward rules for when a 
 person could obtain a tax exemption, e.g. it could be done by providing a 
 certificate from a Doctor stating that the person really is blind and 
 entitled for the exemption. You would then take this to the Apple Store to 
 get your product without paying taxes.
  
  
 Regards,
 Sieghard

RE: voice dream reader

They say it works with Bookshare, which is DAISY.
Bret, could you post a bit more specifics of how you get files into the app,
etc.  I just played around with the free

Thanks,

Hi mary,

I took a look at the app and I have now purchased it. If you want to read
text, word PDF epub html etc, this app is brilliant. 

There is a lite version available that you can try to see if it meats your
needs. This has just replaced three different apps for me. I don't have book
share, so can't comment on that but it doesn't mention anything about daisy.
If you try it and discover anything more about the daisy side of things, can
you pass it on?

RE: Voice Dream Reader

I think you will find that Apple won't allow anyone else to access the
reading of iBooks.  Apple does like their control over things.

Perhaps requesting more voices from Apple would be the way to go.

I hope it won't till later, so Jenny and Sam can be out and about today.
I think they were going to go to the Derby Museum and I suggested they do

Glad you got things accomplished.  I took Joycie out about noon or so, just

I hope it won't till later, so Jenny and Sam can be out and about today.
I think they were going to go to the Derby Museum and I suggested they do

Re: iBooks: slowing down automatic reading with braille.

I tried slowing down speech rate to zero, turning speech off, and using dots 
1-2-3-5-chord to read from cursor. The Braille speed doesn't change. I wonder 
if it would be different if speech were kept on and turned down all the way. 
I'm going to try that.

changes in braille from ios 5.1 to 6

I have an old iPad 1 that can't upgrade to ios6 and an iPhone 4s which runs 
ios6. So braille display support for vo changed some in ios 6, but I can't 
recall what was added. I don't think the list of commands I have includes the 
new stuff for ios 6. I thought Ibooks continuous reading now works across page 
boundaries in ios 6. And I think there were a couple other changes but I don't 
remember them. Does anybody have the list or a link to an up-to-date one?

RE: Gmail Account on iPhone4 is Rejecting Posts to the Group

2012-12-31 Thread Eileen Misrahi

Hi, 

 

To answer your questions, this is the account that is subscribed to the list
and it is my GMAIL email that is both on my iPhone4 and PC. I know that the
they are both configured the same for out and in coming mail. The iPhone4
will only state that the Viphone group server has rejected the email. I
would have to try it again to get the exact error message that the phone
reads out with VO.

I don't think, though I could be wrong, that the server rejects on the basis
of whether your message comes from your phone or your pc. I know this is
going to sound like asking the obvious, but are you using the same email
address on your phone as on your pc and if not, is the email address on your
phone subscribed to the list? Also, does the rejection notice indicate a
reason for the rejection?

 So, I am not sure how a VoiceOver user is supposed to set bookmarks or look

Re: XM online

2012-12-31 Thread Brent Harding

Can you get the NFL audio with that subscription? I am finding that as little 
as I use the Sirius app for music, the sub will be going in February when those 
two free months I got by trying to cancel last week  are up. I would like a way 
to have Nascar also as there is no MRN radio affiliate in my area, unless you 
have the right radio conditions and listen from a vehicle. Even then, I don't 
think $225 a year for the premier package and web listening is worth it. I was 
hoping that I could just activate the web account for the months that sports 
are on I'm interested in and then cancel, versus doing that with a receiver and 
paying $15 to keep reactivating, but I'm sure there's easier and better ways to 
listen to that stuff.

money identifier app. Just to name a few.


Also what all does the I phone do? I know it has GPS on it and I can 
download music and do email on it amung other things Am I right? Anything

RE: wireless printer recommendations compatible with i devices and Windows pcs

You have to follow a few links to find the one you want but if you follow

I have an hP Officejet 4680 and discovered recently that it was wireless.  A
friend set it up to print wirelessly from my laptop.  So I installed an app
on my iPhone 5 called Printer Pro light to see if I could print from my
phone on it.  This is a free app that allows you to check to see if your
printer is usable.  It did print the test page and my husband says it looks
good.
Now to use it to print regular documents I need to download the regular
Printer Pro for iPhone app that costs $4.95.  Not a bad price but I am
trying to decide if i really need to print from my phone since I don't have
any documents there that are not on my laptop.
But the Printer Pro app seems to be pretty good and reasonable.  There were
two HP apps that were free but they did not detect my printer. Go figure.

Hi Amy,

There are definitely just printers out there which are Airprint compatible.
Here is a link I found when I googled Airprint compatible printers.
Apparently this list was updated in November 2012. I have an HP C310A and
C410A which are both multi-function and which are not listed, but I assume
that the list isn't complete and possibly focuses more on the newer models.
In any case, it will give you a pretty big list of models from various
manufacturers which you can check out.

Confused new member

2012-12-31 Thread Jean Menzies

Just joined this list, and for starters, I'm very excited and can't wait for 
the release of the Braille Touch app. 

However, I am very confused as to the routing of messages. Here is what is 
going on, and perhaps someone can shed some light on this. 

I subscribed with an e-mail address that I typically use for all group 
messages. This is an address from my Internet Provider. This means that 
messages should go to my PC, or at least that's what I thought. 

Messages are coming to my phone, which uses a gmail account, not the account I 
subscribed with. I do have my IP e-mail address in my contacts under my name so 
that I can send myself messages on occasion. But I don't understand why the 
messages are being routed to my gmail account on my phone, when I subscribed 
with my server IP address. 

I quite like getting the messages on my phone now, but it would make it 
difficult to reply from there as that's not the subscribing account they are 
coming in on. Explanations, please? 

Thanks. 

Jean

Re: i pad mini accessories?

I'm still kitting up mine, so can't make final judgements. I think the 
keyboard is one of, or a close workalike, of the Amazon basic,  good size 
for full size iPad,  bigger than the Mini,  but what the heck, it's a good 
fit to the hand and works well.  Case, tons of flip cover type with magnets 
to operate the screen lock, but heading for military grade impact protection 
and not bothered about bulk.  No one has mentioned using the iBalls yet, 
it's not a case, but makes pretty good protection by all accounts, as it's 
like for rubber fenders on the corners; makes good high grip feet when you 
lay it down or prop it up.

I use to be able to say find something siri would ask if I wanted her to search

yes or no she just says I thought so. How can I get her to actually launch the

Re: Upgraded to 4s

All modern routers we've had, have a label stuck to the back or bottom and 
the password is unique;  or their security would be worthless. This includes

Subject: RE: Upgraded to 4s

Hi Tessa,

Starting at the end of your post, the WiFi password cannot be viewed.
Depending on which router they have, you can see the WiFi password and
change it if you know how to log on to the router, but that of course
requires a password as well. If your parents never changed it, then you can
find out what the default router password is by doing a Google search for
your brand/model of router, often a particular brand uses the same default
password. For example, Netgear routers usually use admin as the user name
and password as the password. Of course this is supposed to be changed by
the user, but you'd be surprised how many users never do change this. If you
can't log on to the router you could do a factory reset of the router (there
is usually a Pinhole in the back and you poke a paper clip or something like
that into it). Of course this would wipe out any custom settings. You will
also need the routers Ip address, once again, this is brand specific. Many
use 192.168.0.1, some use 192.168.1.1 (Netgear) and there maybe others.

OK, now as far as your apps are concerned, you can keep your phones in sync
if you use the same Apple Id on both phones and if you go into Settings
and Store and tell both phones to automatically sync apps then if you
delete an app on one phone it will also delete from the other phone, if you
buy an app on one phone it will also appear on the other phone. Of course if
you want to have separate apps, music and so on on each phone you should not
enable this.

If your iPhone 4 is still in good condition you could ask your provider to
give you unlock instructions which they should do if the phone is no longer
under contract. Then you can unlock it which would allow you to easily sell
it. You can google iPhone 4 resale values or something like to get an idea
what they are going for.

Regards,
Sieghard

I recently got a 4s but still have my 4. They just took the card from the 4
and put it in the 4s. I had backed up my old phone and then hooked up the
new to itunes and it eventually copied  my apps and such over.
1 I had entered several contacts on the old phone which never got transfered
to the new, someone would call me and then I'd put their name and number in
the contact list. Why didn't these get copied over?
2 My apps on the old phone are much more organized than on the new. I can
still use the old one and sometimes try out some of my old apps and then
delte them. I've also been trying out apps on the new phone and deleting the
ones  that aren't accessible. I downloaded a whole bunch just for testing
purposes and haven't got through them yet.
Can I delete apps from the old or the new phone and have the same apps
deleted from the other phone. Yes it does seem a bit senseless to have two
devices doing the same thing but I haven't decided what to do with the old
phone yet.
I do have wireless here at home and my old phone can connect to my mom's
wireless though they don't know their password so my new one can't LOL. Is
there a way to see the password on my old phone or is that hidden for
security.
Thanks for any thoughts on the issues

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

2012-12-31 Thread Georgina Joyce


Hello,

If I understand it right. The phone is held to provide a more like 
stainsby / shorthand machine formation rather than a perkins? As with 
the stainsby, could the keys be reversed? For those used to writing 
braille on a frame or the standard stainsby? i.e. The letter a dot 1 
generated by  the index finger of the right or left hand? Or is the 
orientation dots 1  4 are generated by the third finger of each hand?


What version of grade 1 is the app going to use? Is it computer braille 
thus numbers are lower case letters? Or do you need to use the number 
sign? Is the full stop 2  5 6 or 4 6? Or will this be switchable upon 
release?


Thanks.

Gena

Hi Richard,

Thanks for your post. There is a free version of BrailleTouch. We hope this
will be useful for braille instructors, as well as for people who want to
try the app out. You do not have to buy an upgrade to use it with your
students.

The free version goes beyond the research prototype we developed at Georgia
Tech, which many braille instructors contacted us about. It will read back
characters, words, or both as you type. It will also speak the full
sentence that you typed in braille. I hope you will find this useful with
your students.

Best,

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

Can I ask you to reconsider the term chord!  Those were always used, 
hitherto;  to relate to using the space key as a modifyer to get control 
hcaracters;  S chord for Status, P chord for Print, O chord for Options, and 
things like that.

The six dots for the character or symbol are just that, unshifted or 
modified in any way.

Hi Kawal,

With BrailleTouch, you type each braille chord on your touchscreen with the
same six fingers you would use on a Perkins Brailler or similar keyboard.
The app will speak each character you type immediately. You can also choose
to hear each word you type, or both characters and words, from VoiceOver.
BrailleTouch reads each character as soon as you lift your fingers off the
touchscreen. Grade 2 is our top priority for a future update.

Caleb

 tried that one, I found it very difficult to use because when you pressed 
 a
 combination of letters, the keys use to stay down and so the correct
 letters never got written as I could never understand what to do with it.
 How different will this be, will the keys instantly come up as if you were
 typing on a perkins? How will we know that a letter has been completed,
 will Voice Over just anounce it and we know that it's been done? I
 encourage you to get  grade 2 out as soon as possible.

Re: Gmail Account on iPhone4 is Rejecting Posts to the Group

I'll put the same argument a different way.  If you initiate a message, it 
will default to whatever address you got set as default; hwichi ndeed may 
not be the one subscribed.
So after the To field,  there's a CC/BCC thing, and then the address you're 
sending from, hwich is a button you can tap and then select from your 
addresses/identities you goton that phone.

I make this error on the pc,   and usually because I more normally click 
reply and it automatically replies from the addi that received it. So that's 
worth a look and try.

I don't think, though I could be wrong, that the server rejects on the basis 
of whether your message comes from your phone or your pc. I know this is 
going to sound like asking the obvious, but are you using the same email 
address on your phone as on your pc and if not, is the email address on your 
phone subscribed to the list? Also, does the rejection notice indicate a 
reason for the rejection?

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

2012-12-31 Thread Jenifer Barr

Hi all. I think one thing we all have to remember is that it costs money to 
develop these aps. is the price for the ap a bit steep? Yes, but, if it helps 
them make the changes you all are asking them to make in future releases... 
shouldn't we suport them so they can do that? As an avid braille suporter, I 
will buy this ap, and hope that my small contribution will help. I one $20 is a 
lot for an ap, but I look at it as suporting the developers in creating an ap 
that I think most of us have been waiting for  for awhile. 
As was stated in a previous email by the developer, we can try it out and if we 
don't like it, we don't have to purchase the add ons.

 Subject: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on
 your touchscreen
 
 
 Greetings and Happy Holidays!
 
 My name is Caleb, and I'm one of the developers of a new iPhone app called
 BrailleTouch. BrailleTouch allows you to type using braille on your
 touchscreen, and is based on the standard six key braille keyboard. We are
 excited to announce that BrailleTouch will be on the App Store by the end of
 January! We hope that you will like BrailleTouch and find it useful. I'm
 happy to answer any questions you may have, and I've included some more
 information about the app below.
 
 With BrailleTouch, you can send text messages, emails, and tweets from the
 touchscreen braille keyboard. You can also copy text you type in braille to
 the clipboard and paste it into other apps on your iPhone. There is a free
 version of BrailleTouch, so you can try it before you buy it. The free
 version lets you type in braille and hear the text you entered. Many braille
 instructors have told us that they would like to use BrailleTouch as a
 teaching tool, which the free version will support. Additional features are
 available as In App Purchases. The Messaging Upgrade allows you to send text
 messages, emails, and tweets from the touchscreen braille keyboard. The
 Clipboard Upgrade allows you to copy text from the touchscreen braille
 keyboard and paste it into other apps on your iPhone.
 
 BrailleTouch is based on research conducted at Georgia Tech in Atlanta,
 Georgia, USA, where I am a graduate student. My colleagues and I tested the
 software with eleven volunteers who are blind. We found that people who knew
 the standard Perkins braille keyboard were able to master BrailleTouch
 within an hour of practice and type at an average of 23 words per minute
 using Grade 1 braille. We received such positive feedback that we were
 inspired to take this research out of the laboratory and release
 BrailleTouch to the public. We hope this software will provide a helpful
 alternative to the VoiceOver split tap keyboard, and that it will help
 improve the mobile computing experience for people in the blind community
 who use an iPhone.
 
 BrailleTouch is fully compatible with VoiceOver. It works on the iPhone 3GS
 through the iPhone 5, iPod touch models since the 3rd generation, and
 requires iOS 5.0 or a later operating system. BrailleTouch is only for the
 iPhone and iPod touch, and is not supported on the iPad. The first release
 is based on North American English Grade 1 Uncontracted Braille. You can
 choose to hear speech feedback for each character you type, each word you
 type, or both.
 
 More information about BrailleTouch is available on our website:
 http://brailletouchapp.com/
 
 The website includes a User Guide and Frequently Asked Questions. You can
 also sign up for our email list, and we will notify you when we have an
 exact release date in January for the app.
 
 We are also on Twitter:
 https://twitter.com/brailletouch
 
 With the free version of BrailleTouch, you can try out the touchscreen
 braille keyboard and hear the text that you typed read back to you. The
 Messaging Upgrade allows you to send text messages, emails, and tweets, and
 costs US$9.99. The Clipboard Upgrade allows you to copy text from the
 braille keyboard to paste into other apps, and costs US$9.99. You must have
 the Messaging Upgrade first before you can get the Clipboard Upgrade.
 
 I am happy to answer any questions you may have. We are very excited about
 the upcoming release of BrailleTouch on

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

2012-12-31 Thread Rebecca Ilniski

I'm looking forward to trying out this app.  I agree with what Jennifer 
Barr said wholeheartedly that it costs money to develop these apps so 
I'll try the free version and if I like it I plan on using my gift cards 
to buy the app.

Yes, you can read in Braille with the Nook app. As with most Braille in book 
apps, you do have to switch pages manually.

Re: Upgraded to 4s

2012-12-31 Thread Christopher Chaltain

Sieghard is referring to the user ID and password you use to log onto
your router, and he's correct, if you haven't changed this then you can
look up the defaults on line or n your router's documentation.
Obviously, not changing this is a security concern, but someone would
have to already be on your network to even try to log in in the first place.

I think you're referring to the WPA key used to get on to the wireless
network, where you are correct, this is unique to the router and can
usually be found on a sticker on the router itself.

 Hi Tessa,
 
 Starting at the end of your post, the WiFi password cannot be viewed.
 Depending on which router they have, you can see the WiFi password and
 change it if you know how to log on to the router, but that of course
 requires a password as well. If your parents never changed it, then you can
 find out what the default router password is by doing a Google search for
 your brand/model of router, often a particular brand uses the same default
 password. For example, Netgear routers usually use admin as the user name
 and password as the password. Of course this is supposed to be changed by
 the user, but you'd be surprised how many users never do change this. If you
 can't log on to the router you could do a factory reset of the router (there
 is usually a Pinhole in the back and you poke a paper clip or something like
 that into it). Of course this would wipe out any custom settings. You will
 also need the routers Ip address, once again, this is brand specific. Many
 use 192.168.0.1, some use 192.168.1.1 (Netgear) and there maybe others.
 
 OK, now as far as your apps are concerned, you can keep your phones in sync
 if you use the same Apple Id on both phones and if you go into Settings
 and Store and tell both phones to automatically sync apps then if you
 delete an app on one phone it will also delete from the other phone, if you
 buy an app on one phone it will also appear on the other phone. Of course if
 you want to have separate apps, music and so on on each phone you should not
 enable this.
 
 If your iPhone 4 is still in good condition you could ask your provider to
 give you unlock instructions which they should do if the phone is no longer
 under contract. Then you can unlock it which would allow you to easily sell
 it. You can google iPhone 4 resale values or something like to get an idea
 what they are going for.

 Sieghard

 Can I delete apps from the old or the new phone and have the same apps
 deleted from the other phone. Yes it does seem a bit senseless to have two
 devices doing the same thing but I haven't decided what to do with the old
 phone yet.
 I do have wireless here at home and my old phone can connect to my mom's

2012-12-31 Thread heather albright

Hello, well if your fiancee  has an iphone, that would be good!  The first 
thing I would suggest, is to get to voice over practice to learn the 
gestures!  The apple store should set it up, if you ask!  They will set up 
your apple ID, vo, and what ever else you need to set up!  If you have 
google account, they can set it up to, so you can get mail on the phone! 
When you get home after practicing gestures, you can figure out how to put 
apps in to folders to clear up the home page!  They have a couple of 
podcasts on the iphone on the blind geek zone and AppleVis.  Nbp has a book, 
getting started with the iphone that can help as well!  The best thing is to 
give yourself time to become use to the phone, not to become frustrated.

Hello,

If I understand it right. The phone is held to provide a more like
stainsby / shorthand machine formation rather than a perkins? As with
the stainsby, could the keys be reversed? For those used to writing
braille on a frame or the standard stainsby? i.e. The letter a dot 1
generated by  the index finger of the right or left hand? Or is the
orientation dots 1  4 are generated by the third finger of each hand?

What version of grade 1 is the app going to use? Is it computer braille
thus numbers are lower case letters? Or do you need to use the number
sign? Is the full stop 2  5 6 or 4 6? Or will this be switchable upon
release?

Thanks.

 Thanks for your post. There is a free version of BrailleTouch. We hope 
 this
 will be useful for braille instructors, as well as for people who want to
 try the app out. You do not have to buy an upgrade to use it with your
 students.

 The free version goes beyond the research prototype we developed at 
 Georgia
 Tech, which many braille instructors contacted us about. It will read back
 characters, words, or both as you type. It will also speak the full
 sentence that you typed in braille. I hope you will find this useful with
 your students.

Help with new motorola hx550 bluetooth earphone

I bought the motorola hx550 because it is supposed to have good battery life 
and work with siri. I got it paired successfully with two phones and know how 
to switch between the phones. I made a call and was told I sounded fine. But I 
have a couple of other questions if anybody else has this.

1. You can wear this phone three different ways: in ear without loop, on ear, 
and in ear with loop gells (I think I got that right). But I'm having a little 
trouble figuring out some of these items and figuring out how to put them on. 
For now I have it in my ear with no loops or gels. If naybody can sort me 
through the items tat come in the box and what to do with them, I'd appreciate 
it if you would give it a try.
2. When I push the talk button , siri appears to come on but doesn't go on to 
respond usually. Or I get to the listen button and press it and talk and 
nothing happens. I can exit okay. Any tips? At one point I saw something that 
gve me two choices: hx550 or iPhone; I'm not sure wht I chose but I hope I can 
get back to that coice if I have to. One thing I do like: if I hold in the 
button, it redials the previous number; I've been wanting a redial.

Thanks for any help.

Re: Upgraded to 4s

2012-12-31 Thread Kevin Barry

If it's on a sticker and it's 8 digits it is WPS which is a major 
security vulnerability as it is easily  hacked.

Disable it from within your router and just use a proper WPA2 key.
Of course some routers won't let you turn it off and others, Linksys, 
will tell you it's off when it is not.

 ones  that aren't accessible. I downloaded a whole bunch just for testing
 purposes and haven't got through them yet.
 Can I delete apps from the old or the new phone and have the same apps
 deleted from the other phone. Yes it does seem a bit senseless to have two
 devices doing the same thing but I haven't decided what to do with the old
 phone yet.
 I do have wireless here at home and my old phone can connect to my mom's
 wireless though they don't know their password so my new one can't LOL. Is
 there a way to see the password on my old phone or is that hidden for
 security.
 Thanks for any thoughts on the issues

Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille on your touchscreen

Actually, according to the user guide, it appears to me that the default layout 
will be just like a Perkins brailler. You hold the phone in landscape mode with 
the screen away from you. Then your left index finger will be dot 1, left 
middle dot 2, and the finger next to your pinky will be dot 3. The right hand 
would be the same: dot 4 is your right index finger; dot 5 is your right middle 
finger; dot 6 is the finger next to your right pinky. This would be exactly 
like a Perkins braille writer. Flipping dots 1 and 3 and flipping dots 4 and 6, 
if I'm picturing this crrectly, would put dots 1 and 4 under your fingers next 
to your pinkys. So in the flipped setting, a c would be at the two far ends of 
your two-hand position while in the normal default setting the letter c would 
be the two center points of your two-hand position. The default setting should 
be immediately comfortable for those of us who use a Perkins brailler; if I am 
picturing this correctly, I would find the flipped keyboard confusing but I 
imagine that depends on what you use for writing.

 Hello,
 
 If I understand it right. The phone is held to provide a more like stainsby / 
 shorthand machine formation rather than a perkins? As with the stainsby, 
 could the keys be reversed? For those used to writing braille on a frame or 
 the standard stainsby? i.e. The letter a dot 1 generated by  the index 
 finger of the right or left hand? Or is the orientation dots 1  4 are 
 generated by the third finger of each hand?
 
 What version of grade 1 is the app going to use? Is it computer braille thus 
 numbers are lower case letters? Or do you need to use the number sign? Is the 
 full stop 2  5 6 or 4 6? Or will this be switchable upon release?
 
 Thanks.

 Hi Richard,
 
 Thanks for your post. There is a free version of BrailleTouch. We hope this
 will be useful for braille instructors, as well as for people who want to
 try the app out. You do not have to buy an upgrade to use it with your
 students.
 
 The free version goes beyond the research prototype we developed at Georgia
 Tech, which many braille instructors contacted us about. It will read back
 characters, words, or both as you type. It will also speak the full
 sentence that you typed in braille. I hope you will find this useful with
 your students.
 
 Best,

Subject: New member and introduction

Hi all,

I just joined this list, so I'm a new member. My name is Lori and I live 
in Ohio. This afternoon I will be going out with my fiancee to purchase my 
new Iphone 5. I did get to see the Iphone 4 and 5 briefly and I was 
impressed with what I saw.

So with me going to be a new I phone user what things do I need to know 
about the Iphone? When I purchase my I phone 5 will there be some apps 
already on the phone or will I need to downloadthe apps I want? And where 
do I download the apps I want? I know I want to get the weather app and 
the money identifier app. Just to name a few.

Also what all does the I phone do? I know it has GPS on it and I can 
download music and do email on it amung other things Am I right? Anything 
you all can tell me about the I phone 5 would be appreciated. Thanks.

Lori

Re: Looking for books


When looking at google books, be careful to select only those which have text 
as a possibility, not those which say scanned pages only, as those are images 
and they don't work for us.
