Re: Barcode apps, please help.
Hello Martijn, First let me say what a fantastic app Talking Goggles is. I e-mailed one of your colleagues about localising Talking Goggles into other languages but I haven't had any response. I have a discussion list for French-speaking visually-impaired users of Apple products and many of them are rather put off by labels in English only. There are also many on this list who are not native English speakers and who might know of other visually-impaired friends who do not cope well with English but who would appreciate being able to use Talking Goggles in their own language. Cheers, Anne On 25 Apr 2013, at 05:01, supp...@sparklingapps.com wrote: We are adding barcode reading to Talking Goggles as well. But Talking Goggles reads many more products that do not have a barcode, either by recognizing their image or by reading the description on the package with OCR. Please try it out and tell us how we can improve our app further.

Re: how to integrate gmail with phone/contacts on ios?
Correct. Not only that, but Microsoft Exchange is no longer supported for new devices (i.e. if you've used Gmail via Exchange on your device before, you can keep doing so but you can't set up new devices to use it). So for all practical purposes, there's no Exchange support anymore. So for synchronization of contacts, CardDav is really the only option.

Re: changing automatic language detection, help pls

Re: changing automatic language detection, help pls
Hi, Voice over will only change languages when your voice is set to use the default voice. If your default voice is Dutch, and you don't want to voice to change, put Dutch voice in your roto as well.

IPhone not syncing with ITunes properly
I'm trying to sync my IPhone with ITunes, this is my first time doing this so that I can back it up and stuff. I plug it in, ITunes recognizes it and starts the sync, It is getting stuck on the backing up step. The statis bar on my phone says sync in progress. I've restarted ITunes, even uninstalled and reinstalled the program and still gets stuck on backing up, I even left it overnight and when I woke up this morning it is still stuck on that step.

Hello, I was just about to post a message about the MusicPlayNDrop app. I have been in contact with the developer and he has made it more voice over friendly. you can try the lite version before buying the full version for $2.99.

Do you want double tapping on the keyboard or not? You can have either. Just when in an edit field use the rotor to go to typing mode then swipe up or down to choose either touch typing or standard typing. Standard typing will mean you do need to either double tap or do a split finger tap, touch typing means once you find the key you want you just release your finger. You may also find the function to be able to use shortcuts to input words helpful.

There is also a small envelope/jacket/folder which I have not opened in case there are any important fiddly bits which might go missing. At this point the phone reports no service and that brings me to my final question here I was told by a family member who also has a 5 that the sim would already be in the phone. Yes? No?

Where Compassion and Understanding Cross Paths with Frustration and Impatience
I want to make a note on this list regarding a recent thread that appeared to be bashing some members for not taking due diligence in composing messages. First, let me confess to the fact that I seem to recall having composed a message chastising folks for careless punctuation -- if any punctuation at all. And that on the surface, that post may have seemed inconsiderate, non-supportive and lacking in compassion. But, also allow me to clearly state that the post was far more a result of frustration and impatience than a lack of compassion and support. This entire issue has everything to do with the fact that many of us must listen to the posts than anybody suffering from school marmosis. And when listening to questionably composed messages the screen readers get really annoying. When I could see to read e-mail messages, I could not have cared less how well grammar was adhered to in those messages. But now that I must listen to the messages, it becomes so very mind-boggling to try to understand so constructed messages. I'm not going to call anybody lazy or uneducated or disrespectful, but I will say that I do find listening to poorly composed messages a terribly frustrating chore. Now, please note that I said listening to . . . messages (there's an ellipses embedded within that quoted phrase) can be terribly frustrating and not that the people who send them are such. There's a huge difference in that distinction and please be mindful that most of us are not picking on anybody; we're just frustrated. And that often is because we all know someone is reaching out for help and we're having difficulty receiving that plea for help. So folks, please don't be leaving the list because you think you're being picked on, that is most likely just not the case. From what I've seen of this list, there is a whole lot of good will here and a desire to help each other so do not throw the baby out with the bath water. May the Great Creator Bless You All!

Re: one thing I wish apple would change
Hi Troy, This may or may not help. Hold the phone in one hand, and search for the item you want with the other hands finger.

Re: what's in the box
When you look at it be aware that on the 5 the SIMM card tray is very very flush with the edge of the phone. In fact, on mine I can not feel it at all. The way it is ejected is by sticking a paper clip end or something small like that into the very small hole next to the tray and pressing it firmly inward. I do mean firmly too. I was afraid I was going to damage my phone it took so much pressure. Once you do this the tray will pop out and the card will be held there if it is in the phone. Good luck and have fun.

Best Barcode Scanner App Follow-up Questions
This is an excellent app that I've just installed and tried based on the recommendation of Annie Skov Nielsen. I have a couple of questions about the app: 1. How does one obtain nutritional information such as grams of carbohydrate, etc. when scanning the barcode of a food item? There was a lot of information presented in the scanned item output but I could not find nutritional information about the cereal box I scanned. 2. I found the app by searching for Best Barcode Scanner but the label assigned to the icon on my iPhone is QR Code. Has the app been renamed? Thanks for the recommendation and any help with these questions.

Hello Anne. I have found another app, that works great especially if you use your standscan pro. It works also quite good without standscan pro. Best barcode scanner from simpleact inc. It searches for the barcodes on google. Readlaser is also a great app, but you are right it is not having many barcodes here in Denmark too, but it does have some barcodes. Digit-eyes is in my opinion to difficult to use, you will have to know exactly where the barcode is located, that is not the case with the two other apps.

Getting Prices for Apps Previously Purchased

When you search within the iTunes Store, a price is not given that I can find for apps you've previously purchased.

Re: where do I type my statis?
The answer seems to be that you can do it by default, the keyboard is at the bottom to type on, and in the place that first says what's on your mind, that is an open text area, even if it doesn't say so. just type, and it'll get rid of the bit about on your mind and put your text. I just did it, the first time I did a status from my newish 4S. I cheat, I use BrailleTouch too, but only to type the text, then copy to clipboard so I could paste and try it. - Original Message - From: Troy Sullivan troysulliva...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2013 9:12 PM Subject: where do I type my statis?

Re: IPhone not syncing with ITunes properly
Press and hold the power button and the home button for 10 seconds and let go. This will reset the phone with out deleting anything from the phone it's an incomplete reset but it should fix that problem. - Original Message - From: Troy Sullivan To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2013 5:29 AM Subject: IPhone not syncing with ITunes properly I'm trying to sync my IPhone with ITunes, this is my first time doing this so that I can back it up and stuff.

I've restarted ITunes, even uninstalled and reinstalled the program and still gets stuck on backing up, I even left it overnight and when I woke up this morning it is still stuck on that step.

Re: Lost my Bluetooth your phone
This is why I have been strongly recommending we use the term ear peace for a single ear peace and the term head set for one with 2 ear peaces.

Re: VO Calendar
Hello, I do not know if it makes a difference, but I am using an IPhone 5 running IOS 6.1.2. I noticed today that when I looked up an appointment I have for tomorrow, that it told me what the appointment was for, and the time frame of the appointment. Now I was looking at things in the Day view, which is by double tapping the day tab at the bottom of the screen. As I was flicking down the list of times, when I came to my appointment, it said (for example): Description of appointment, location, from start time to end time I hope this has been helpful.

One more thing I find is seriously lacking in VO Calendar is the fact that I can’t easily see what time an appointment ends. The app almost assumes that every appointment is one hour. It is inconvenient to have to go into more options just to find out what time an appointment ends when wanting to add another. I don’t feel comfortable having people wait for me while I fish all over for information as to when I am available when that information should be available up front. If someone knows a way to do this without jumping into the native calendar, please let me know. Ron Danvers Falling down is part of LIFE... Getting back up is LIVING...

I have personally repeatedly performed all the steps described below and extensively tested the outcome obtaining 100% positive results. Nevertheless, you do this at your own risk and I can not be held responsible if anything goes wrong or if performing these steps results in any Apple or Vocalizer license infringements. I used a PC running Windows 7 64bit, but the process should be exactly the same on any version of Windows. I suggest you read through the entire guide before beginning, make sure you fully understand each step and ask questions if you don't. OK, here we go! 1: Open Cydia then search for and install OpenSSH. 2: On your device, make sure wifi is turned on and navigate to settings wifi network name more info (Where network name is the name of the network your connected to) and make a note of your ip address. 3: Using a program such as putty on Windows or the terminal on OSx, connect to your iPhones newly installed SSH server using the ip address we've just found. 4: Login with the following credentials: User: root Password: alpine 5: Type passwd without the quotes and change your password by following the onscreen instructions. This step is not essential but it is important for the security of your device. 6: You now need a method of transfering files to/from your device; Putty comes with a console app called psftp that will do this, however, WinSCP is much more friendly, so I suggest you use it instead. Unfortunately I'm unsure of what options you have if you're running OSx. You will need to authenticate again when logging in with WinSCP; the user will still be root however the password will now be the new password that you created in the step above. 7: Download the voice that you want from http://www.vocalizer-nvda.com/en/downloads.htm. Change the file extension of the downloaded file from nvda-addon to zip so you can access what is inside. 8: On WinSCP, navigate to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/VoiceServices.framework/TTSResources/ on your device. In there you should see subfolders with language and region codes, such as en-US (United States English), en-GB (British English) or es-MX (Mexican Spanish). The voice data inside any of these folders can be replaced with any voice you want. For the sake of this guide, we'll be replacing Daniel (en-GB) with Tom, but other combinations will work as well). Enter one of these folders, I.E., en-GB. You will see a file called broker.hdr, a few dat files, and a text file called user_rules.txt. This rules file is custom written by Apple, and it can be used as a dictionary (ever wondered why your iDevice pronounces artists like Rihanna correctly? Well, there you go). You can either leave it as is, or replace it with the file from the language you're installing, I.E., since I'm replacing Daniel with Tom, I could use the rules file from the en-US folder instead of the one inside en-GB. If the original voice and the one you are installing both speak the same language, I suggest you use the rules file that is larger. Now, go ahead and make a backup of this folder in case you mess something up - E.G. copy paste all the files inside the folder to a folder on your computer. 9: We'll now prepare the voice data. Lets look at the NVDA vocalizer file. When you open the adon's zip file/folder you downloaded, you will see a locale folder, which contains strings for NVDA, and a folder with the language code (for Tom it's enu), and you want to go there. Inside there will be only a speech folder so enter that as well. Now you'll see 2 folders, components, and vautov5. The components folder will have a bunch of dat files. You will definitely need these 3 (languagecode and voicename will change depending on what voice you're working with): clc_languagecode_cfg3.dat clc_languagecode_voicename_cfg3.dat select_voicename_bet2f22.dat The 4 files below these contain the voice data for each of the standard compressed, standard uncompressed, premium compressed and premium

Using the iphone overseas
Hi all, I am from Australia and Later this year, I'm planning to travel to England and America. I am using an iphone 5 running the latest version of IOS, and was just wondering about any useful info I should know about taking and using the phone overseas. I plan to take my old iphone 4 over and put a sim card in that to use for phone calls etc, I prefer to keep the Australian sim right where it is in the iphone 5, so it isn't lost and thought a spare old phone would be put to good use. I'm assuming if I take the iphone 5, I can connect it to a wireless network and continue to use all my other apps, minus the phone of course? Since my original sim is staying in I won't be able to use it over 3 G just wireless?

The amount of distance, that one needs from the object will vary depending on the size of the object that you want Talking Goggles to read. For example, when using the app with my computer screen, I was about 2-3 inches away. Also, I treaT Talking Goggles as an OCR app in regards of keeping the iPhone levvel and centering it over the object that I want it to read.

The only time I hear a shutter clicking is when I toggle the bottom right button to still camera, which converts the middle button from stop to take picture.

Re: what's in the box
You may want to simply call ATT tech support and alike when your sighted help is there. If you tell them you're a visually impaired person and explain to them that you are having a bit of a problem with the setup, I'm sure they will help walk you and your assistant through the entire process. This will save you tons of hassles as well as getting everything working properly in one session rather than through many email messages.

Re: confirm my understanding?
The total number of blind people is around 0.5%. The iPhone, iPad, iPod, and so forth, are general market products. They are the first general market products of their type to have accessibility for the blind built in to every unit. Products made specifically for the blind are significantly more expensive and have fewer features. This is because the blindness market is so small. The command structure for VoiceOver is quite different from the normal command structure of the iOS devices. When a sighted person goes into accessibility to activate VO, a warning pops up alerting the person that VoiceOver completely changes the commands of the device. If a sighted person, who knows nothing about VO, were to accidentally activate VO by pressing home three times rather than two times when activating the app switcher, said person would believe their iDevice was broken. They would complain and Apple would quickly develop a reputation for products which easily break. So, in this case, our choices are, deal with the fact that we need to activate triple-home click during initial set-up, have a sighted person activate VO for us, or use iTunes to activate VO; or we can switch to one of the specially designed products for the blind which we know will always work for us from the outset. The other choice, of course, is to switch to the latest Android device. So long as TalkBack is installed and accessibility is activated, TalkBack can be started at any time with a simple command. That said, the first time I attempted it with a friend's new Android device running the latest Android OS, TalkBack was not even installed, so he first needed to access the GooglePlay store and install TalkBack. This surprised me as I had been given to understand that TalkBack was on all Android Phones running the latest OS. Therefore, in my opinion, iOS is still the best system around.

Re: confirm my understanding?
VO usually stays active once started. There is only one way which I know of where this is not the case. That way is an occasional bug that hasn't yet been able to reproduce reliably. If you have a sighted person activate VO for you, go to settings, general, accessibility. The last option will be triple-click home. This option defaults to no action. Double-tap this item and select VoiceOver. From now on, you will be able to turn VO on and off when you triple-click the home button. Turn the iDevice off by holding the power button until VO says slide to turn off, slide or double-tap. Do not hold the power button and the home button for 10 seconds unless nothing else works to reset your iDevice. Though this is Apple's official reboot command, the bug which deactivates VO may occur when this method is used. If so, you will need to use a sighted person or iTunes to reactivate VO. Finally, some people recommend resetting your iPhone by pressing the power button several times rapidly to crash the springboard. This is the only method I have ever used that corrupted data on my iPhone, so I do not use it. This method is not recommended by Apple, and does not do anything unless VO is active on the phone.

Re: slide or double tap
Ray, if you have a lot of difficulty with multiple tap gestures, there may be a way around it using assistive touch. I will need to experiment with it and get back to you later. Unfortunately, I am extremely busy for the next month and a half, so do not currently have the time to experiment with it. I can do so in mid-June if necessary.

Re: what's in the box
You will not get service until an activated SIM card is installed. That said, you will most likely need to activate the iPhone before you get coverage, even if a SIM card is installed. The iPhone can either be activated using a computer and iTunes, or during the set-up process on the phone. I do not know if you need Wifi for the activation process as I have always used iTunes, or had it activated at the carrier store. I find it quicker and easier to use iTunes as I am also able to restore my back-up on to the new iPhone at the same time. Besides, the process is much quicker on the computer compared with using iCloud on the iPhone for restoration.

Re: Best Barcode Scanner App Follow-up Questions
Hi Alan. I do not know where to get nutritional information, I normally search on google, have you checked the settings, you can choose from where you will get the information.

Re: Protect Yourself On Public Wi-Fi With Cloak [Deals] | Cult of Mac
It is a good deal. A VPN is a Virtual Private Network. A private network is a coded or wired network that only systems on the network are able to access. A VPN uses secure encryption technology to tunnel a private network through public network bandwidth. Therefore, anything you send remains secure between you and the VPN server. After that, your data travels through the standard internet in the normal manner. VPN's have a couple factors which can make them very beneficial. First, your location becomes the location of the VPN server. So, if you want to use a country specific internet service, a VPN server in that country allows you to use the service. For example, if you wish to watch Hulu or NetFlicks, you need to be in the US. A VPN server in the US allows you to use such a service from anywhere in the world. Next, the big security risk of public WIFI networks is that someone who has access to the server itself can set up a system which copies everything which passes through the server. So, anything you type, unless you are on a secure screen, can be logged by the system. For example, any passwords you type can be copied if you are not on a secure encrypted webpage. If the webpage is secure, the VPN is not necessary.

Re: slide or double tap
For Ray and others who are very new to iPhone or iPod Touch 5th gen, If you are trying to turn off your iPhone simply press the single power button at the top right-hand side. Pressing this power button again turns it back on. If the iPhone is off and you press the power button at top to turn it on, or if you press the home button on the face of the iPhone to turn it on, you can repeatedly single-finger swipe right until you hear Slide to unlock. At this point use a single finger to double tap on this item to open your homepage. (Don't forget that you can repeatedly single finger swipe back to the left if you don't find Slide to unlock.) After the single finger double tap on Slide to unlock you will be on the desktop of your iPhone. (Smile). Note: Tom Lang? posted a great tip. He suggested that once you press the power to turn on your iPhone/iPod touch, you can press the bottom left hand corner of the screen to quickly find Slide to unlock. Now double tap anywhere on your screen and you are at your HOmepage. This is how your iPhone's homepage is probably laid out (There are 3 sections): Status bar at the top, 4 by 4 grid of app icons, and dock. Status bar: Activate the status bar by pressing your finger at the top 1/4 inch of screen. You can now swipe from right to left and vice versa. This section tells you such things as WIFI signal connection status, time, battery power etc. To access a different part of the screen simply tap the center of your iPod or iPhone. Apps: If you tap on the area of the screen below the Status bar you will be focused on all your apps. You can swipe to the right to move through all your apps. You will hear a tone when you move from app to app. You will hear a very different tone when you move from row to row of icons. There will be 4 app icons per row and a total of 4 rows of icons. You can double tap an icon to open the app. To return to the homepage simply press once the round Home button at the bottom of the iPhone or iPod Touch. Dock: The third section of your iPhone homepage screen will be contained within the bottom row of icons. This dock will hold only 4 items. This is analogous to your Windows7's Taskbar. You can quickly launch any app pinned to this dock. I have placed The apps store in dock position 1 and the calendar on dock position 4. This makes checking for app updates very quickly as I need only tap the bottom left hand corner of screen to determine if there are any app updates waiting for me. Determining today's date is also very easy as I need only tap the bottom right hand corner of the screen to have the date spoken to me. The gesture you will probably use most is the left swipe and right swipe which helps you navigate through each screen and various iPhone settings. Think of it as pressing tab and shift tab on a Windows machine. Let me know if you need any clarification or amplification of information.

An oddity with contacts
Hello all. The following is a weird problem that one of my clients is experiencing and I am not sure how to help them. This is all in the contacts list. From what I can tell the contacts are in alphabetical order the way the client wants them to be. They are set up to sort by last name, first name. And display by first name, last name. This is all good. The problem is if you are flicking to the right and you come across the letter C the next contacts which are displayed all start with D. Then as you keep flicking to the right and you eventually get to the letter E, the contacts after that start with D. I set the rotor to headings and am experiencing weirdness there as well. As I flaked down I would hear things like a, B, H, E, F, P, H. So it is as if things are being misread. However if I hear a letter out of turn, I touch the screen to see what is there and the correct contact for the letter it is supposed to be is actually displayed. This is telling me that voiceover is actually speaking different letters in the headings for the categories but those letters are not correct. So in my example above the G is missing. Yet if I stop on that missplaced the letter the contacts for G are actually spoken. I have never seen this happen before and I am not sure what to do to fix it. At first I thought the client might have been left flicking instead of right flicking, but that's not the case. --- Sent from Raul's iPhone - (832) 554-7285.

Are you saying that this is not the case with the iPhone 5? It seems to me that after you press the power button for about three or four seconds you will have to double tap to confirm the power off. Please correct me if I'm wrong. --- Sent from Raul's iPhone - (832) 554-7285. Please excuse any dictation or auto complete errors.

Re: An oddity with contacts
Hi, Did you try restarting the phone? That sometimes solves weirdness of that sort. Best, Anna On Apr 25, 2013, at 5:31 PM, Raul A. Gallegos r...@raulgallegos.com wrote: Hello all.

Re: slide or double tap
One clarification, pressing the power button does not actually turn the iPhone off. Pressing the power button places the iDevice in a standby state where the screen is locked. The device can still play music, receive phone calls, alerts, and messages, alert for appointments, and so forth. Otherwise, this is an excellent introduction to the iPhone 5.

Re: slide or double tap
I have a strong feeling the problems have more to do with not knowing the layout of the screens, so he doesn't know what to do and therefore can't properly measure feedback of his swipes in regards to what does and doesn't work. Practice the following... 1. Turn on the iPhone. 2. slowly place your finger on the surface and try touching the screen as lightly as possible. Do this repeatedly and until you get a sense of the pressure needed to trigger the voice feedback. You will find that you need only the slightest pressure on the screen to activate icons on the screen. 3. with the phone on, make tiny swipes from left to right. These swipes should be about a quarter inch to half an inch in distance. practice until you get a feel for what is comfortable for you as well as the distance necessary to move from one item to the next. Remember, once you have swiped all the way to the right you will not be able to move to any other item, so begin swiping in the opposite direction to move through all the icons once again.

A VPN is a Virtual Private Network. A private network is a coded or wired network that only systems on the network are able to access. A VPN uses secure encryption technology to tunnel a private network through public network bandwidth. Therefore, anything you send remains secure between you and the VPN server. After that, your data travels through the standard internet in the normal manner. VPN's have a couple factors which can make them very beneficial. First, your location becomes the location of the VPN server. So, if you want to use a country specific internet service, a VPN server in that country allows you to use the service. For example, if you wish to watch Hulu or NetFlicks, you need to be in the US. A VPN server in the US allows you to use such a service from anywhere in the world. Next, the big security risk of public WIFI networks is that someone who has access to the server itself can set up a system which copies everything which passes through the server. So, anything you type, unless you are on a secure screen, can be logged by the system. For example, any passwords you type can be copied if you are not on a secure encrypted webpage. If the webpage is secure, the VPN is not necessary.

Re: slide or double tap
David, I used language I thought a beginner would understand most. (Smile). We all know what turning the power off on the iPhone means, so I went with that. I guess I should have specified the difference between turning power off and powering down which is actually kinda like putting the phone to sleep and powering down one's computer, respectively.

Pressing the power button places the iDevice in a standby state where the screen is locked.

Raul, You are correct, its just that once one presses and holds the Sleep/Power button for about 4 seconds, one will hear the prompt to double tap to turn off. I didn't think I had to specify that since it will be spoken under all conditions, but I see now it is important to mention this fact so others would know exactly what to expect.

That said, you will most likely need to activate the iPhone before you get coverage, even if a SIM card is installed. The iPhone can either be activated using a computer and iTunes, or during the set-up process on the phone. I do not know if you need Wifi for the activation process as I have always used iTunes, or had it activated at the carrier store. I find it quicker and easier to use iTunes as I am also able to restore my back-up on to the new iPhone at the same time.

Re: An oddity with contacts
Based on your description, there are a couple things going on. First, I need to make an assumption. On a few of the letters in contacts, there are either no, or very few contacts under the particular letter. The number would be less than 6 to 10 depending on whether the iPhone is a 5 or an earlier model. To understand what is going on, you need to be aware of how and when the iPhone activates its interpretation algorithm for VO commands. All tap, flick, and other movement-based commands are interpreted and activated when the finger(s) are removed from the display. However, location tracking of one finger is activated when one finger touches the display and remains still for about half a second. This is very important, especially when a person is learning to use the iPhone. What inevitably happens is, the person wants to do a flick. The person touches the display. The person is thinking so hard about doing the technique properly that they hesitate for about half a second to a second (this amount of hesitation is well-known in martial arts training). The hesitation moves VO focus to the part of the display where the person happens to be barely touching the display. Before VO announces the item that is under the person's finger, the person performs the flick and removes the finger from the display. The new command interrupts the announcement of the previous command, VO performs the required action, and the new location is announced. Because VO's focus was shifted to a different position / item on the screen, the alphabetical listings announcements are apparently out of order. Yet, when the screen is checked, everything is where it is supposed to be. If you pay careful attention, you will actually notice the same thing occurring even when letters do not change. It is less noticeable in this case because the first letter is the same, and we find it much more difficult to remember all the names in a single letter. As for the headings, the display shows all letters, and the display is continuous. If a letter only has one entry, and the next letter also only has one entry, you can see several heading letters on the display at one time. If the focused letter is at the top of the display and the hesitation moves focus to the bottom of the display before the vertical flick is sent, several letters can be easily skipped. The same is true for the reverse. Finally, when horizontally flicking, the VO highlight tends to remain near the middle of the display. When an item in a list is closed, however, that item and VO tend to be placed at the top of the display. A note about touching. The display is not pressure sensitive. Barely touching the display is all that is needed. The touch can be so light that you are not sure you have touched the screen yet. The location timer activates at this point because the display does not know whether you are barely touching it or quite firmly touching it.

RE: An oddity with contacts
David, Thanks and a couple observations. This is why I try to explain to new users that they need almost to start their swiping motion before they touch the screen and end after their finger is off the screen. It's like an air plane that hits the runway and decides to take off again. It continues on both ends of the time on the runway. However, I just noticed something strange. I just rebooted my phone. Held down the power button for the time required and then tapped to turn off. When I went into my contacts, I tried to really do a good job of swiping just like I said before, and they worked perfectly. However, when I swiped backwards to the beginning and went through them with a right swipe again, the letters were no longer in sync with the names. I'm guessing that one of your helpful bits of knowledge explains this, but I don't think I swiped any differently the second time than I did the first time. It is nice to know, however, that my contacts are OK. It's just me and the iPhone that may not be in total sync. smile.

First, I need to make an assumption. On a few of the letters in contacts, there are either no, or very few contacts under the particular letter. The number would be less than 6 to 10 depending on whether the iPhone is a 5 or an earlier model. To understand what is going on, you need to be aware of how and when the iPhone activates its interpretation algorithm for VO commands. All tap, flick, and other movement-based commands are interpreted and activated when the finger(s) are removed from the display. However, location tracking of one finger is activated when one finger touches the display and remains still for about half a second. This is very important, especially when a person is learning to use the iPhone. What inevitably happens is, the person wants to do a flick. The person touches the display. The person is thinking so hard about doing the technique properly that they hesitate for about half a second to a second (this amount of hesitation is well-known in martial arts training). The hesitation moves VO focus to the part of the display where the person happens to be barely touching the display. Before VO announces the item that is under the person's finger, the person performs the flick and removes the finger from the display. The new command interrupts the announcement of the previous command, VO performs the required action, and the new location is announced. Because VO's focus was shifted to a different position / item on the screen, the alphabetical listings announcements are apparently out of order. Yet, when the screen is checked, everything is where it is supposed to be. If you pay careful attention, you will actually notice the same thing occurring even when letters do not change. It is less noticeable in this case because the first letter is the same, and we find it much more difficult to remember all the names in a single letter. As for the headings, the display shows all letters, and the display is continuous. If a letter only has one entry, and the next letter also only has one entry, you can see several heading letters on the display at one time. If the focused letter is at the top of the display and the hesitation moves focus to the bottom of the display before the vertical flick is sent, several letters can be easily skipped. The same is true for the reverse. Finally, when horizontally flicking, the VO highlight tends to remain near the middle of the display. When an item in a list is closed, however, that item and VO tend to be placed at the top of the display. A note about touching. The display is not pressure sensitive. Barely touching the display is all that is needed. The touch can be so light that you are not sure you have touched the screen yet. The location timer activates at this point because the display does not know whether you are barely touching it or quite firmly touching it.

The following is a weird problem that one of my clients is experiencing and I am not sure how to help them. This is all in the contacts list. From what I can tell the contacts are in alphabetical order the way the client wants them to be. They are set up to sort by last name, first name. And display by first name, last name. This is all good. The problem is if you are flicking to the right and you come across the letter C the next contacts which are displayed all start with D. Then as you keep flicking to the right and you eventually get to the letter E, the contacts after that start with D. I set the rotor to headings and
