Photo Isn't Appearing?
Hi there, I have a question about my Contacts and photos. Up until recently, my contact information had everything about me.name, home and work phones, home work and other emails, home address, and other stuff. It also had my photo that is the profile picture on my facebook page. Although I don't have Facebook having access to my contacts, I have allowed Facebook to update my current contacts with whatever pictures are on my contacts facebook pages. Today, I noticed that some of my contact information had gotten screwed up. For instance, instead of showing my cell phone number as an IPhone number, it showed as Other. Also, my photo was no longer part of my profile. I went to the settings area and tried updating that part of Facebook. It didn't add my photo the way it used to do so. Then, I went ahead and allowed Facebook to link up with my existing contacts and add whatever other information it links. Then, it had my photo. When I limited Facebook contact access again, the photo was gone. That hadn't ever happened before. Also, when I checked other friends and contacts, their photos were on their profiles on my phone. Any idea what's going on and what I need to do? Thanks, Jim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Phone Not Ringing In Locked Screen

If I tell Siri Tell Mary I will give her a call in an hour. At least for me, most of the time the message is read back. The times when it isn't, its because VO interrupts it for some reason. In this case, I place my finger on the screen, and flick to the edit field and VO reads the message. I find the error rate to be on par with that found in IOS 6, Maybe a little bit better. But that isn't were Siri is really giving people a lot of headaches though. Its Siri actually processing your requests. This failure rate is way up in IOS 7.

I understand that Siri no longer reads back the text it has inserted when you do dictation. How then do you efficiently understand whether the text that has been inserted is correct? In iOS 6, this is easy because Siri reads it back. I have found that the error rate is very good in iOS 6. So most of the time, I don't have to hunt for anything to correct it, making the read back by far the most efficient means of knowing if my text is okay. So, how is the error rate in iOS 7 compared with that of iOS 6? It seems that there are varying reports on this topic. I use dictation a lot, such as in this message. And I will not upgrade if the ability to use it to write longer messages is seriously degraded. Yet one more reason to wait.

The app switcher in my opinion, should just close automatically and go to the home screen since that is the only action left to perform. For example, I have 2 apps running. in the app switcher, I will see the 2 apps plus the home screen. Cool. But, once I've close those 2 apps, there is absolutely no function left to the app switcher but to close it and return to the home screen. So, why then force the user to perform a gesture or, press the physical home button when its a logical inevitability that that is the next action the user will do? This looks to me like a hold over from IOS 6 that is no longer needed in IOS 7. Remember, In IOS 6, although all apps were closed from the switcher, there was still a large list of things a person could still do. Play/pause music, lock/unlock orientation, etc. But this is no longer the case in IOS 7 since all these features have been moved to control center.

My own tastes must not cost as much. I bought A horse Named Bill, sung by the poet Carl Sandburg. Fifty cents. I was tired of trying to find it, even though I was fairly sure I had one somewhere. Then I looked at some violin piece played by Rachel Barton Pine of Chicago. It was only 89 cents, but I didn't buy it. I checbed yet another classical piece which was 99 cents. But yesterday I got a couple beautiful violin Cd's. One was one cent and another 2 cents, but each had 4 dollars shipping. Now I know why I could not get to iTunes radio. It is in the music part, not in iTunes proper. Is that right? Because, for the last few tries, I could not get to my opera channel. And I had had such fun voting for what I liked and occasionally saying: Never play this again. Why, it is so very arbitry. And so much fun.

With this cold holding on for over a week, I've spent a lot of time laying around doing not much of anything so I thought this would be a good time to give it a test drive. I should also say that I'm not much of a radio fan. I don't like other folks selecting what sort of music I listen to. Apparently with this app all you need to do is to enter into the text entry field, the name of a song, an album, or an artist. So, I typed in The Eagles iTunes radio came back and offered me Eagles Radio Wow! I thought that meant that I would hear one Eagles tune after another but instead, I get great songs that go together. I suppose there are other music apps and services out there but I see what their doing here. They played a song by The-Nitty-Gritty-Dirt-Band called An American Dream which I hadn't heard in some time and I decided to add it to my collection. Wow again! a buck twenty nine USAID. You could go to the poor house buying songs 1 at a time. I wonder if there is anything like ten songs of your choosing for an album price.

Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
Can you explain, how does the network status define either you are downloading something or not. What i know or my understanding thru the network status is it moves according to the 3g signal you have and have nothing to do with either you are downloading something or not downloading anything. And, when you turn airplay onn, everything involve in connection is off. that include bluetooth, wifi, 3g, phone, and everything else. Joanne Chua The flip side of Inclusion is Exclusion.

RE: Siri and relationships, how to use?
I don't think that it can identify older or younger siblings, just sister. Then I would assume he will ask which sister you would like to call, text, or email.

Problem with deleting e-mail after upgrading to iOS 7
Hello listers, Since upgrading my iPhone 5 to iOS 7, I've been having trouble deleting e-mail from my university e-mail account. When I try to delete a message from my inbox by swiping up and double tapping on the trash button, one of three things happens: 1. The message is deleted as one would expect; 2. If the message is still marked as unread, it suddenly shows up as read and remains in my inbox but then becomes deleted on my second attempt or 3. The message stays in my inbox, no matter how many times I attempt to delete it. When this happens, none of the methods of deleting e-mail work on that message. At first, I suspected that this was simply a bug in iOS 7, but recently I noticed that the issue applies to my university e-mail only; I have no trouble deleting iCloud or Gmail messages. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
OK fair enough, but you people, and by that statement, I mean the people who are complaining about this, are not realizing that this isn't something new. This has been going on since iOS 5. So, why the fuss now all of a sudden? Also, this isn't something targeting blind people specifically like I've seen some list members insinuate. This happens for everyone. I don't like it either if I don't have a choice, but I will say that on the flip side it's saved money too. Just this past weekend I went to a client's home to do some equipment maintenance for him. He had an iPad mini and a laptop which needed work. At first I thought I would be spending a lot more time on the laptop while the update downloaded and then installed. However because it had already been downloaded, the upgrade of his ipad took a lot less. Over all it saved everyone a lot of time. So it does have it's positive side as well, and again, this isn't new with iOS 7. -- Raul A.

One of the things that Apple used to pride itself on his it just works. Given what I've heard about iOS 7 and voiceover, I don't think they're living up to their reputation. We pay a lot more for this hardware and put up with the walled garden because it is supposed to offer a superior experience. This is not an example of a superior experience.

Where do Bard Books go after being Added?
Hi, Everyone. Thanks for answering my question about how to add books using iTunes. I managed to follow the directions, but can't find the books on my iPod. When I open the Bard Mobile app and choose the Audiobook tab from the bookshelf, it shows only four books. When I try to add the books I think should be there but aren't, I get asked whether I want to replace the file that's already there-I'm using zipped files downloaded from the website.

Then I looked at some violin piece played by Rachel Barton Pine of Chicago. It was only 89 cents, but I didn't buy it. I checbed yet another classical piece which was 99 cents. But yesterday I got a couple beautiful violin Cd's. One was one cent and another 2 cents, but each had 4 dollars shipping. Now I know why I could not get to iTunes radio. It is in the music part, not in iTunes proper. Is that right? Because, for the last few tries, I could not get to my opera channel.

Re: iTunes Radio
You can create a station based upon a song, an artist, or a genera. that's what it said so I typed in the first group name that came to mind. I typed in The Eagles and double tapped search in the lower right-hand corner. I got back in about 2 seconds Eagles Radio Music and interviews with the band. I figured it works for me. What happens is the station plays songs that would go great with the Eagles sound. Of course all of this is done so Apple can sell you songs and albums. I came across a song that I decided to buy that I use to like and haven't heard in a wile. An American Dream by the Nitty Gritty Dirt band. It popped up and it cost me a buck twenty nine cents. Not exactly cheap and I did not see any options as to format. I would have preferred .MP3 format but it's ok too in ogg format. I have no experience with Pandora but my 23 year old son says iTunes radio is just like Pandora only Apple's version of it. Well, couldn't prove it by me so I'll take his word for it. I didn't see any to pull up local radio stations though. It does say iTunes radio. If that's the case then they should of called it the iTunes Music Player instead to avoid confusion for us old people. --- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

Wow, nice sexist comments here. smile. So you are saying that because the person involved with the colors is a woman, then she used her feminine influence for the colors? Do you have data to back this up, or is it merely speculation like most other things. Then you go on to say that the teenagers who are young mails will be the ones who want to tinker? So, you are saying that females can't tinker, or don't have the drive and hormones necessary to want to tinker because they are female? Yes, I'm probably reading too much into what you say, but seriously man, either you have some serious sexist issues, or your sense of humor totally went over my head.

Unfortunately, I must agree with the assertion that 7 is just plain ugly. A number of sighted friends have described the 'new' look, each in their own way, (as well as their difficulties with using it) and it just seems to me that for whatever reason, Apple just essentially abandoned all the upscale chic look and feel of iOS for what I can only describe as a thrown together gaudy amateurish look. For as much polish as the parallax effect has, the rest of the OS is so overly scaled down as to be just plain ugly. Just to illustrate one basic example, now what are being read by VO as buttons, in some cases, are simply a very light grey word on a white background. There are no borders making this look like a button, no indication that this item should be tapped to be activated and no really definite way to tell if the button is active or not. The font is so thin as to make it difficult to read and as I said, pretty much impossible to distinguish between being active or inactive. This is absolutely awful and inconsiderate for people with any kind of visual difficulties at all. Not to mention just the major change in user interface paradigm. I have absolutely no idea what Apple was thinking with this one and quite frankly, it makes me ashamed. This is just not cool and I really hope reason once again prevails here. apple, please do live up to your excellent standards and turn this one around right away so that everyone can enjoy this OS rather than need to suffer through it. At the very least, please consider bringing back at least some classic mode of visual interface (as you have done by keeping original ringtones) for those who can see, but whose vision might not be perfect. At the very least, consider bringing back an option for an homage to the classic look and feel. This would make worlds of difference for many people. This would go a long way to really showing that Apple inclusiveness. this is not just a matter of a new cool look. This is a matter of a whole lot of difficulty for many users whom may not even technically have vision problems but for whom this OS is just plain difficult to work with.

Re: iTunes Radio
I have found that if I hit the next button to move to the next song, you will reach a point where you can't move forward through the songs being played and the forward button goes dimmed. Going back several songs will then activate the next button again but only those few songs so, it does appear that there is a limit on the number of times you can jump forward. I'd suspect that the same would hold true in reverse. --- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013! Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your stupid parents? Act now! Move out. Get a job.

If I tell Siri Tell Mary I will give her a call in an hour. At least for me, most of the time the message is read back. The times when it isn't, its because VO interrupts it for some reason. In this case, I place my finger on the screen, and flick to the edit field and VO reads the message. I find the error rate to be on par with that found in IOS 6, Maybe a little bit better. But that isn't were Siri is really giving people a lot of headaches though. Its Siri actually processing your requests. This failure rate is way up in IOS 7.

Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
HELLO All, When viewing this thread, I realized that only my name was pasted to it. So here goes again. When all of the noise about this supposed gliche started to circulate, everyone was afraid to charge their phone or plug it in to the computer of feaar that iOS 7 would upgrade one's device. Fortunately, this is not the case. Just think about what kind of trouble Apple would be in if iOS 7 was automatically installed on the device. Just yesterday, I plugged my iPhone 4 into the computer. I received the usual popup that iTunes will give when there is an upgrade. Of course, I press thecancel button and I was placed in the main screen of iTunes with no harm done. What surprise me more was that that this activated the popup on the phone. I was given 2 options: to download or to cancel. You can guess what I tapped on. Raul is correct that this feature has been on the iOS platform for a while andon this phone since 6.1.2 because I have been on the fence about jailbreaking as soon as I replace it with a new one. Well, it's taken so long that it's part of the settings announcement. So for those who are getting stressed out about this, just relax. No one is forcing you to upgrade. Apple can't afford anymore litigation and bad publicity. JMO.

Unfortunately, I must agree with the assertion that 7 is just plain ugly. A number of sighted friends have described the 'new' look, each in their own way, (as well as their difficulties with using it) and it just seems to me that for whatever reason, Apple just essentially abandoned all the upscale chic look and feel of iOS for what I can only describe as a thrown together gaudy amateurish look. For as much polish as the parallax effect has, the rest of the OS is so overly scaled down as to be just plain ugly. Just to illustrate one basic example, now what are being read by VO as buttons, in some cases, are simply a very light grey word on a white background. There are no borders making this look like a button, no indication that this item should be tapped to be activated and no really definite way to tell if the button is active or not. The font is so thin as to make it difficult to read and as I said, pretty much impossible to distinguish between being active or inactive. This is absolutely awful and inconsiderate for people with any kind of visual difficulties at all. Not to mention just the major change in user interface paradigm. I have absolutely no idea what Apple was thinking with this one and quite frankly, it makes me ashamed. This is just not cool and I really hope reason once again prevails here. apple, please do live up to your excellent standards and turn this one around right away so that everyone can enjoy this OS rather than need to suffer through it. At the very least, please consider bringing back at least some classic mode of visual interface (as you have done by keeping original ringtones) for those who can see, but whose

Then I looked at some violin piece played by Rachel Barton Pine of Chicago. It was only 89 cents, but I didn't buy it. I checbed yet another classical piece which was 99 cents. But yesterday I got a couple beautiful violin Cd's. One was one cent and another 2 cents, but each had 4 dollars shipping. Now I know why I could not get to iTunes radio. It is in the music part, not in iTunes proper. Is that right? Because, for the last few tries, I could not get to my opera channel. And I had had such fun voting for what I liked
RE: App Switcher [was Re: iOS 7, thoughts?]
Hi Andy and Alan, A 3-finger swipe up will close the app and if you have only one or 2 apps to close I find I use that gesture as well. However, as Christopher already said, you can also close an app by flicking up or down with 1 finger which puts focus on the Close option of the action rotor and then double tap. What I think it was Ron was describing was an easy and quick method to close many apps since in the app switcher the rotor selection remains on Close once you put it there. This means if you flick up or down with one finger you can simply double tap on an app, it disappears and the next apps slides over in its place, you can now continue to only double tap to close it and so on. What I find works even better and I have posted this twice is to use the split tap. If I have 10 or more apps open and I want to close them all out I just find the one immediately to the right of the Home button, so pretty much right in the middle of the screen. I now flick down to change to Close, then I put one finger on the app and start split tapping. I only have a 4S, but doing this closes apps and slides them over just about as fast as I can split tap, there is no delay and I can close 10 or 12 apps in probably about 3 seconds.

Re: about Speed Up Player Pro again
I've never used it with dropbox. I've used it after transferring books to my phone through ITunes.

Re: About iOS 7, is it really so bad? was: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
I checked out the 5 s and the 5 c at an Apple store. As far as the outside, the 5 s looks exactly like the 5. The one difference is that there is a ring around the home button for the finger print scanner. The 5 c is rather interesting. Since it's plastic, I was wondering how it would feel, and it actually is quite good. Definitely well built. One thing I don't like is that other countries get the unlocked version of the 5 s right away, but, just as in the past, the unlocked version of this phone will not be in the Apple stores for a while. Original message: Hi Sieghard, thanks for this! yes, the 5S sounds pretty sweet! Can't wait to check out the camera and M7. As far as the iOS 7 UI, no, I sure don't think Apple will do a 180, but it would be nice if they can offer some sort of customization which might at least harken back to a more contoured, textured iOS 6-esque UI or do something to liven up the flat look they have now. :) I've got to tell you it really does make some 3rd party apps look super ugly! Not kidding! lol! Apple did quite a bit of customization on the UI to get their own apps to look like they do. If you use the standard developer tools apps look pretty lousy in the latest OS. Previously if one used the standard UI elements when designing apps, 3rd party apps would look just as good as Apple's own. Not anymore! lol! They basically look like a squared-off child's line drawing. -And not in the good way! lol! Anyway, enough of that. As I said, I'm looking forward to the camera and M7 coprocessor in the 5S.

My guess is that they will tweek this and improve upon it so let's hope they will fix it so that our iOS groups list owner doesn't have to be ashamed *smile*. The 5S by the way gets pretty awesome reviews and apparently totally kicks butt in all the benchmark tests. It is also not to be overlooked that Apple sold 9 million iPhones worldwide on the first weekend, some of them apparently are still in chanel which means not yet in the hands of the end user, and they do have a couple of large new carriers, but given the shortages in many places it does sound like a pretty impressive number.

Question On Bible Formatting
Hi, list. I notice that the Bible app from Life Church andthe Feable Gateway app have some weird formatting issues, particularly where verses are written in poetry. It is not unusual !h only one word per line on the Braille display, which makes reading reY awkward in Bible studies. Does anyone know ofa program that provides multiple versions ofthe Bible that are less awkward !read in Braille? Thanks for any recommendNs.

Re: new ring tones
I used the old phone tone for a long time for my tone and just left it on the default tone when i installed iOS 7 but the new tones sound a bit sissyish to me.

Re: 4 finger single tap bug?
Responding late to the 4 finger tap toward the bottom of the screen issue, this works for me most of the time, however I have noticed a few places that it does not work. For example, if I go into Messages on my iPhone, and open the very long conversation between my wife and I, when I put 4 fingers toward the bottom of the screen I often hear part of the keyboard. This mostly happens after I have received a message from her and when the virtual keyboard is showing. This is an annoying bug but not one to get real upset about, IMO. I then touch near the bottom of the screen with 4 fingers and get to the send button, where I can swipe left to the text area to write in a response. As I say though, the 4 finger tap at the bottom of the screen works most of the time for me. Running iOS 7 on an iPhone 5.

Re: Email and iOS question
Yes, I imagine that this wasn't an enhancement as much as it was likely an oversight on Apple's part. I remedied the situation by having my phone mark previously received mail as read, although the fact that it's still downloading eleven thousand email messages is a bit concerning. I'm hoping apple will revert back to letting us set an appropriate limit, especially since I really don't need additional reminders of how irresponsible I am about responding to or deleting emails!

Fortunately, this is not the case. Just think about what kind of trouble Apple would be in if iOS 7 was automatically installed on the device. Just yesterday, I plugged my iPhone 4 into the computer. I received the usual popup that iTunes will give when there is an upgrade. Of course, I press thecancel button and I was placed in the main screen of iTunes with no harm done. What surprise me more was that that this activated the popup on the phone. I was given 2 options: to download or to cancel. You can guess what I tapped on. Raul is correct that this feature has been on the iOS platform for a while andon this phone since 6.1.2 because I have been on the fence about jailbreaking as soon as I replace it with a new one.

Hiding Apps In ITunes Purchase History
Hi, Every once in a while reported issues do get fixed. It might have taken 9 months but Apple has once again made it possible to go into your purchase history of apps via ITunes on the PC and mac and hide those which you don’t wish to see any more. Speaking for the PC side of things using ITunes 11.1 and Jaws For Windows 15 beta the process was completely accessible and did work. For the first few apps I hid I got a confirmation dialog asking me if I was sure I wanted to hide but after a while it stopped asking me and just hid the apps. As for what precipitated that change I couldn’t tell nor could the person assisting me. While I’m glad to report that this functionality has been restored I’ll miss my monthly status updates with Landry formerly of the accessibility group who kept in touch regarding this issue even after his transfer to a new department. His attention to detail throughout this process was customer service done right and I assure you I’ll convey that to Apple as well. Happy hiding apps one and all.

RE: Siri's performance in IOS7
For me, what I get from Siri with VoiceOver on or not on seems to be quite random. I can ask it the same question with and without VoiceOver and there doesn't seem to be a difference. The difference is the time of day when I ask the question, and this depends on a lot of things. Sometimes when I ask for temperature, I will hear the temperature in madison is X. Sometimes, I will simply hear the temperature. So the answer to the same question can change and it seems, at least for me, that it is not voiceover specific.

While SIRI sometimes tells me it can't take a request or do something, usually it works as it should when it does things. Anyhow, I was wondering if anybody has actually taken the time to document this behavior in detail and submitted it to accessibil...@apple.com which should be the first thing that comes to mind if something doesn't work and seems to be so because of Voiceover.

I, too, have been experiencing problems with siri's responsiveness. I am quite the loose-leaf tea addict, so have to set fairly specific timers for my tea to brew. When using IOS6, I could simply say siri, please set my timer for four minutes and thirty seconds and she would do it instantly. ever since upgrading, I'll ask siri to perform the same task (politely of course, because I'm a Canadian and that's how we roll), and then i'm usually met by a stoney silence. I follow that up by frantically swiping around the screen, and after a bit more silence, will hear things like things you can tell me. Ask Where's Brian? and not only do I not know Brian, I honestly couldn't give two flying you know what's about where he is at the moment. While this very uninspiring exchange is taking place between siri and myself, my tea is sitting there steeping confusedly, and then I just manually set a timer and try to account for the fight I just had with siri.

If I tell Siri Tell Mary I will give her a call in an hour. At least for me, most of the time the message is read back. The times when it isn't, its because VO interrupts it for some reason. In this case, I place my finger on the screen, and flick to the edit field and VO reads the message. I find the error rate to be on par with that found in IOS 6, Maybe a little bit better. But that isn't were Siri is really giving people a lot of headaches though. Its Siri actually processing your requests. This failure rate is way up in IOS 7. I would say its near the levels when it

Re: About iOS 7, is it really so bad? was: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
Agreed. Apps took under five seconds to load on a 4, but under two on a 4s. So over half the time is cut between each phone.

Good morning all. How exactly do I use the relationships feature of Siri? I'm asking this as I asked Siri to text my eldest sister. He then asked who he should send the message to and that he needs a name, e-mail or phone number. However he knows who my eldest sister is and she is in my contacts. I tried asking him to text my youngest sister but the same happened. He also knows who my father is but not tried that yet. Any help greatly appreciated.
