RE: Looking for Inexpensive VoiceOver Compatible Single Earpiece
I have never found a single earpiece including the more expensive ones which can Play/Pause audio.

Re: Hanging Up Calls
What probably happened when VoiceOver stopped working is that your phone interpreted whatever you did as a three-finger double tap, which turns speech off. Just three-finger double tap it, on purpose this time, and it should come back on. I do wish they would let turning speech off be the three-finger triple tap, which now toggles screen curtain on and off, and let the three-finger double tap toggle screen curtain on and off. Having speech turn off, and not knowing why, caused a few don't know what to do moments when I first got my phone. Arnold Schmidt - Original Message - From: Lee Jones To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, December 02, 2013 9:05 PM Subject: Hanging Up Calls Dear List, today I had difficulties hanging up calls. Voice over went dead. The end button is usually spoken very low for me but just audible but today there was nothing. I tried the two finger double tap about eight times with no joy. I thought that my gestures mayh have been sloppy, but the two finger double tap to pause audio in podcasts works on the first or second try. In extremus are there any other methods for hanging up calls? Can you set how much voice over's volume decreases when a call is initiated? You can't use the volume rotor if there is no voice feedback. What percentage volume is recommended before calling to make voice over audible with the decrease in volume assuming I can get it to go over 25 percent. For me the rotor bug is not just the 25 percent limit, but also that if you move it from five percent to ten percent and keep going the same way sometimes you go back to 5 percent instead of on to 15 percent.

Re: Pages change too quickly when moving apps
Back in iOS 3 and 4, page change when moving apps was very quick. In iOS 5, Apple slowed it down too much. Now, Apple sped page change up again, but has added spoken announcement of each page before changing to the next page. If you lift your finger when you hear the page you want, the app will stop on that page. That said, some people find it easier to move the app into the doc, change to the page they want the app on, and move the app out of the dock onto the new page.

Re: help with papa sangre
Hello, yes to both. The game will be very difficult to play if you don't have headphones. Also, if you are walking and the phone vibrates, it means you are running into walls.

Re: Papa Sangre 2, Walking Around
Hi, if the phone vibrates it means you are walking into walls. You must tap the left and right sides alternating between the two to simulate walking. However if Voice Over is running you have to initially tap the screen once to allow the controls to work because this is required by apps which do a constant pass through when voice over is running. Hope that helps. I think that if you can get passed some of these initial issues, you will like the game very much. -- Raul A.

Re: help with papa sangre
Hi Dawn and Martin, I've generally found it much easier to operate the game with two hands, and yes, headphones are required; you won't be able to navigate properly without them. The phone will vibrate occasionally as you walk around. Also, I've exited the game accidentally while VoiceOver is off and I'm not sure why, but I've gotten used to it; I turn VO back on, go into the app switcher and re-enter the game. HTH.

You will need to turn it back on when moving to the next level, so make sure that triple-click Home is set to VoiceOver. Hope this helps. The game is addictive as hell. You have been warned!

Deleting Songs From My iPod Touch
Good Evening! A couple of months back, I subscribed to iTunes Match. I currently have 4,012 songs there. Previously I had stored all of my music in my iTunes Library on my iMac, and all songs were also stored on my iPod Touch 4th Gen 64 gig. Once I had all of my music in iTunes Match I thought the space taken up on my iPod would be freed up. I discovered however, that I actually still have 3,427 songs physically stored on my iPod. How can I get them off my iPod so that I can just stream them using iTunes Match? I tried turning iTunes Match off on my iPod and then turning it back on a little while later. I was asked if I wanted the library replaced to which I answered yes. When that was done, I went back and checked under Settings/General/About, and discovered that it still says I have 3,427 songs, using 29 plus gigs. Any help with this would be much appreciated!

I would be interested in a good ear peace myself. I don't care about listening to music with it. I just want to use it for hands free telephone calls.

control center and back on wifi
Have wifi again! Woohoo! Also got besides the new 5s, unlimited everything for what I was paying before. Interesting item concerning ''the control center. When I opened it for the first time, after I got the phone and upgraded to 7-0-4, there were nothing but untitled buttons. Decided to play a bit, and this is what I found. I could select some of the buttons so I did, turned the phone off and when I turned it back on, the buttons were labeled. From there I could select what I wished to be in the control center. Hope this helps someone as this was rather disconcerting to me with no way in settings to set the buttons.

Re: Looking for Inexpensive VoiceOver Compatible Single Earpiece
Craig, I would first discourage you from choosing a single earpiece. Just my experience, but the times you need it, in loud and unfamiliar environments, it is more important than ever to have clear communication the first time. This is true if you are looking up information, receiving directions or talking by phone. I find I can hear the outside sounds just as well and better use my phone with decent stereo. My choice there is the Plantronics 903 for about $40 on Amazon. Just my opinion re: the M-50, it has a permanent ear hook. The M-55 does not have this hook attached, but does come with one you can use when you need. I use it when I am alone and if I drop the earpiece it would be difficult to find. But, if I am with others and they might help find the dropped earpiece, I will not use it (or around the house). Not that the earpiece falling out of my ear is a huge problem; it fits quite nicely and is very small and lightweight. Yes, I do occasionally use the single earpiece. But, my first choice most all the time is the 903. The biggest problem I have had with all bluetooth, and I have had many, many different devices, is the microphone. This is not such an issue talking, but when using Seri or dictation it does matter a lot, and most fail that test. The Plantronics M-50 and M-55 do pass that test with flying colors, though. Just one final point re: the M-55, it comes with some service for weather, news, etc. This is free for one year and around $20 per year after. It is not worth free. It calls a Call Me type service, but the voice is horrible and the service is extremely slow. It is not something you would even know is there if you choose not to use it, even if you want to try it for a bit to see how bad it is. I just feel that the optional ear hook on the M-55 makes it a better fit for my needs. I think they are pretty equal in performance. I think there is a $10 difference, with the M-50 being less. But, if you were buying just one device, I highly suggest you reconsider the stereo models.

Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?
As I suspected, I just received confirmation from Fleksy Support that with the latest upgrade, the app only works with iOS 7.0 and later. Until I decide to upgrade to iOS 7, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for other typing alternative apps that work well with VoiceOver. I'm in the process of learning braille so don't think an app such as MBraille would be ideal. I would prefer something using a QWERTY keyboard format. And my vision is very limited so integration with VoiceOver is a must. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I really enjoyed Fleksy during the nine months I was using it but I think I prefer apps that don't feel the need to upgrade quite so quickly every time another iOS version is released. Yes, I know that makes me sound like a bit of a Luddite but I suspect I'm not the only one who spends time learning an app that meets my needs and doesn't want to upgrade to something that makes numerous interface changes in order to provide some new features that I don't want. This is particularly true when the upgrade forces an iOS upgrade too. Fleksy's excellent predictive functionality was quite amazing so I will no doubt return to it at some point. Thanks in advance for any typing alternative app recommendations. Alan Lemly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?
Hi, You don’t need to search for alternatives. Apple allows you to download the latest version of an app that’s compatible with your device if you’re not running iOS 7.

RE: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?

RE: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?
Maybe you could provide some more details about how to do this. When I've tried running Fleksy since its latest upgrade, I get a message forcing me to the Apps Store for the latest upgrade. When I attempt to do that, I get a message saying the new version requires iOS 7 and to execute another button if I want to install the last version compatible with my iOS. When I do this and run the app again, I get the upgrade required message once again so I'm in a circular loop. Any ideas?

Teenagers who know good apps and good times
Lo folks, I is Derek. I belong to the army of one with Jewel. I is an 18 y/o guy and I like games that are violent or very challenging. I want to make some friends on Skype from here to talk about IOS apps for teens and about things in general. Guys and girls are welcome, especially the hot girls, though I cannot see you so you can decide if you are hot or not. You gotta know good IOS apps, though, especially games for teens. Is there an accessible version of something like Grand Theft Auto or Halo? That would be SWEET! I got Papa Sangre, and will get Nightjar in the near future. For now, though, I is mostly look for free apps. Hope I don't confuse no one.

RE: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?
Hi Alan, Of course upgrading is your choice, but unless you have an iPhone 4 iOS 7 really is a good upgrade and it offers some features which in my opinion easily make up for the bugs. In any case, we should be very close to the 7.1 upgrade and I would be surprised if some of the main issues wouldn't be addressed here. I do, however, think that Fleksy needs to address this issue about the app asking to update because how about iPhone 3GS users or iPhone 4 users who don't want to upgrade. As somebody else pointed out, Apple offers this new functionality where somebody can download the last version of an app which worked under an older version of the OS and I would contact Fleksy support and request that they make sure this works and is possible. Regards, Sieghard From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2013 8:38 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users? As I suspected, I just received confirmation from Fleksy Support that with the latest upgrade, the app only works with iOS 7.0 and later. Until I decide to upgrade to iOS 7, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for other typing alternative apps that work well with VoiceOver. I'm in the process of learning braille so don't think an app such as MBraille would be ideal. I would prefer something using a QWERTY keyboard format.

Re: Life Proof Case
Hi, I just bought my 5 S yesterday, and I considered the life proof case. I thought it distorted the sound too much, so I did not get it. That is, of course, only one person's opinion. GOD BLESS, Wren -Original Message- From: Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Monday, December 02, 2013 10:43 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Life Proof Case Hi Thomas, You got a positive review from Lois, here is a negative one. I bought a Lifeproof case in January of 2012, so almost 2 years ago. I thought the case was clunky from day 1, if you are using a dock of any kind you need a dock extender cable, but in all fairness, there are not that many cases which allow you to put your iPhone onto a dock in the case. My Lifeproof case broke about 4 months after the one year warranty expired even though I only used it for special occasions when I wanted that level of protection. The part that broke is this plastic pin which fixes the bottom latch to the case. It is actually just a pin because one of my employees was able to take it out. Lifeproof sells the front or back of the case separately, but they don't sell the latch or the PIN which would be a $2 item. I asked if they wouldn't make an exception and meet me half way on the warranty. My suggestion was that if they were willing to send me the front part of the case I would be happy to pay the shipping to Canada, but they just said that unfortunately my case was outside the 1 year warranty period and they could not help me. If the case was $39 or even $49 I would maybe not have such a bad opinion, but the case is $79.99 and if you want a belt clip they sell you this extra for $29.99, so it's a $110 case which, if you stop and think about it for a moment, is really quite expensive. Yes, it's supposed to be waterproof, but considering that unless you buy their own insurance package they don't guarantee that, I would never trust it to be waterproof like when I was swimming or something like that. They also offer some other accessories and I can't remember exactly, but I did add it all up and I think if somebody bought all their accessories and the case it came to something like $279 or some ridiculous amount. That is my review, as Lois said, you will hear good and bad. I suggest you check out some of the reviews on Amazon, but the Lifeproof case for the 4/4S which has over 6,000 reviews only has a rating of 2.9 out of 5 which isn't that great. Keep in mind that while Lifeproof says it adds little bulk to the phone it still does make the phone bulky in my book, but probably any waterproof case will.

If you lift your finger when you hear the page you want, the app will stop on that page.

Re: Hanging Up Calls
Please do not take this the wrong way. Double-tap the display with four fingers, or go to settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, practice area, and perform much more practice with your gestures. You really need to get to the point where you are performing the gestures you believe you are performing 100% of the time. By your message, it is clear that this is not currently the case. For instance, when you perform the single-finger vertical flick to change the volume, or any other flicker, the choice does not go up and down and up again unless your gestures are not precise. The same is true with the two-finger double tap. You state you can get music to start and stop playing with just a few tries. I get music to start with one try and to stop with one try, always and every time I perform the command. This is because I practiced the gestures extensively until I started performing them 100% of the time. Absolutely nothing but lots of practice will correct your difficulties with the gestures. When answering and hanging up phone calls, you are most likely holding your two fingers too close together, so the touchscreen is only able to detect one finger. Because we become anxious when the gesture does not perform correctly the first time, the natural reaction is to tense up and cause our fingers to come even closer together before we try again. When the gesture continues not working, we do more of the same and get even more anxious. Remember, the gesture commands do work properly, all of the time, when we perform the commands properly. Practice, practice, practice, and when you think you finally have the commands down, practice some more because the first few times this happens, the chances are you are bored and flustered with the practicing. Remember, it initially took you a long time with lots of frustration and many mistakes when you learned to type, and when you learned to use the computer with the screen reader. This is no different.

In extremus are there any other methods for hanging up calls? Can you set how much voice over’s volume decreases when a call is initiated? You can’t use the volume rotor if there is no voice feedback. What percentage volume is recommended before calling to make voice over audible with the decrease in volume assuming I can get it to go over 25 percent. For me the rotor bug is not just the 25 percent limit, but also that if you move it from five percent to ten percent and keep going the same way sometimes you go back to 5 percent instead of on to 15 percent.

If you lift your finger when you hear the page you want, the app will stop on that page. That said, some people find it easier to move the app into the doc, change to the page they want the app on, and move the app out of the dock onto the new page.

Re: Hanging Up Calls
David, I am great at these gestures, and get them right just about 100% of the time as well. I have used iOS successfully for three years, so trust me when I say: I know what I'm doing. In iOS7.0.4, I have found, on rare occasions, the two-finger double tap to simply not work. I have had this happen twice in the past few days: a call is coming in, so I tap two fingers twice, and nothing happens. I have been sort of monitoring this thread, so both times I methodically checked my finger position, placement on the screen, tap speed, and so on, and tried several more times. The gesture simply fails to work every so often, for no reason I can think of. Like you, I originally figured that those who were having trouble were just doing it wrong, but I must now say that there seems to be a bug with this gesture. Unfortunately, it is a rare one, so is hard to pin down and reproduce, and those are the hardest to fix. On Dec 3, 2013, at 1:18 PM, David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com wrote: Please do not take this the wrong way. Double-tap the display with four fingers, or go to settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, practice area, and perform much more practice with your gestures. You really need to get to the point where you are performing the gestures you believe you are performing 100% of the time. By your message, it is clear that this is not currently the case. For instance, when you perform the single-finger vertical flick to change the volume, or any other flicker, the choice does not go up and down and up again unless your gestures are not precise. The same is true with the two-finger double tap. You state you can get music to start and stop playing with just a few tries. I get music to start with one try and to stop with one try, always and every time I perform the command. This is because I practiced the gestures extensively until I started performing them 100% of the time. Absolutely nothing but lots of practice will correct your difficulties with the gestures. When answering and hanging up phone calls, you are most likely holding your two fingers too close together, so the touchscreen is only able to detect one finger. Because we become anxious when the gesture does not perform correctly the first time, the natural reaction is to tense up and cause our fingers to come even closer together before we try again. When the gesture continues not working, we do more of the same and get even more anxious. Remember, the gesture commands do work properly, all of the time, when we perform the commands properly. Practice, practice, practice, and when you think you finally have the commands down, practice some more because the first few times this happens, the chances are you are bored and flustered with the practicing. Remember, it initially took you a long time with lots of frustration and many mistakes when you learned to type, and when you learned to use the computer with the screen reader. This is no different.

Voice over went dead. The end button is usually spoken very low for me but just audible but today there was nothing. I tried the two finger double tap about eight times with no joy. I thought that my gestures mayh have been sloppy, but the two finger double tap to pause audio in podcasts works on the first or second try. In extremus are there any other methods for hanging up calls? Can you set how much voice over’s volume decreases when a call is initiated? You can’t use the volume rotor if there is no voice feedback. What percentage volume is recommended before calling to make voice over audible with the decrease in volume assuming I can get it to go over 25 percent. For me the rotor bug is not just the 25 percent limit, but also that if you move it from five percent to ten percent and keep going the same way sometimes you go back to 5 percent instead of on to 15 percent.

RE: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?
Hi Sieghard, and thanks for your comments about iOS 7. I will no doubt move to it at some point and perhaps when version 7.1 comes out, that will be it. I just saw another post from Syntellia which seems to indicate that at some point those of us running older versions of Fleksy will no longer get the upgrade message which prevents the app from running at launch. We'll see and in the meantime, I've written iTunes Store Support so I can understand better Apple's policy about forced iOS upgrades in order to continue using an app that comes out with a new version. Alan -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2013 11:46 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users? Hi Alan, Of course upgrading is your choice, but unless you have an iPhone 4 iOS 7 really is a good upgrade and it offers some features which in my opinion easily make up for the bugs. In any case, we should be very close to the 7.1 upgrade and I would be surprised if some of the main issues wouldn't be addressed here. I do, however, think that Fleksy needs to address this issue about the app asking to update because how about iPhone 3GS users or iPhone 4 users who don't want to upgrade. As somebody else pointed out, Apple offers this new functionality where somebody can download the last version of an app which worked under an older version of the OS and I would contact Fleksy support and request that they make sure this works and is possible. Regards, Sieghard From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2013 8:38 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users? As I suspected, I just received confirmation from Fleksy Support that with the latest upgrade, the app only works with iOS 7.0 and later. Until I decide to upgrade to iOS 7, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for other typing alternative apps that work well with VoiceOver. I'm in the process of learning braille so don't think an app such as MBraille would be ideal. I would prefer something using a QWERTY keyboard format. And my vision is very limited so integration with VoiceOver is a must. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I really enjoyed Fleksy during the nine months I was using it but I think I prefer apps that don't feel the need to upgrade quite so quickly every time another iOS version is released. Yes, I know that makes me sound like a bit of a Luddite but I suspect I'm not the only one who spends time learning an app that meets my needs and doesn't want to upgrade to something that makes numerous interface changes in order to provide some new features that I don't want. This is particularly true when the upgrade forces an iOS upgrade too. Fleksy's excellent predictive functionality was quite amazing so I will no doubt return to it at some point.

Re: A radium question.
I'm impressed. Does it have room for some extra conveniences? Sure. But, considering that I can't get the Sirius Xm app to work with my iPhone 5S and IOS 7.0.4 (Sirius Xm tech support claims they are working on an update to resolve that), this is the best app to solve that. It appears not to have a time limit; carries the on-line only Sirius Xm content, doesn't seem to have the time limits that Sirius Xm does, and plays within about twenty seconds of the live broadcast which beats the heck out of about a five minute lag on the SiriusXm app. The only thing I can't do with Radium is customize the MySxm experience or play On Demand shows.

I haven't read this. Where did you read this? Given that bluetooth only has a 30 foot range, I wouldn't think it would help with GPS accuracy. Wifi does help with GPS accuracy though. That's because GPS apps, in addition to checking with GPS satellites, also check with hot spot databases and triangulate your location based on the hot spots you're around.

Re: Life Proof Case
Hi there, I also found the life proof case to be bulky. More importantly, however, I found that it really distorted the sound quality, and when I spoke to people on the phone, I was told that I sounded as though I was hollering at them from the bottom of a well. Combined with the fact that I'm high-maintenance and tend to get bored of cases easily, it didn't last very long with me at all.

I bought a Lifeproof case in January of 2012, so almost 2 years ago. I thought the case was clunky from day 1, if you are using a dock of any kind you need a dock extender cable, but in all fairness, there are not that many cases which allow you to put your iPhone onto a dock in the case. My Lifeproof case broke about 4 months after the one year warranty expired even though I only used it for special occasions when I wanted that level of protection. The part that broke is this plastic pin which fixes the bottom latch to the case. It is actually just a pin because one of my employees was able to take it out. Lifeproof sells the front or back of the case separately, but they don't sell the latch or the PIN which would be a $2 item. I asked if they wouldn't make an exception and meet me half way on the warranty. My suggestion was that if they were willing to send me the front part of the case I would be happy to pay the shipping to Canada, but they just said that unfortunately my case was outside the 1 year warranty period and they could not help me. If the case was $39 or even $49 I would maybe not have such a bad opinion, but the case is $79.99 and if you want a belt clip they sell you this extra for $29.99, so it's a $110 case which, if you stop and think about it for a moment, is really quite expensive. Yes, it's supposed to be waterproof, but considering that unless you buy their own insurance package they don't guarantee that, I would never trust it to be waterproof like when I was swimming or something like that. They also offer some other accessories and I can't remember exactly, but I did add it all up and I think if somebody bought all their accessories and the case it came to something like $279 or some ridiculous amount. That is my review, as Lois said, you will hear good and bad. I suggest you check out some of the reviews on Amazon, but the Lifeproof case for the 4/4S which has over 6,000 reviews only has a rating of 2.9 out of 5 which isn't that great. Keep in mind that while Lifeproof says it adds little bulk to the phone it still does make the phone bulky in my book, but probably any waterproof case will.

Re: iPhone 5 on Straight Talk
If someone wants even a lower priced service, consider the $30 a month plan from T-Mobile. It offers unlimited text and data along with 100 minutes a month. If you want more, there are iPhone apps that enable folks to make either free calls or ones that charge a penny a minute. The savings from a postpaid plan could buy a new 5S in less than 10 months.

Flexy--Unable to get past the update alert message
Hi, all! I have that same problem with my flexy; it asks me to update it, but then when I click on that, it goes to the app-store, where the only choice I can pick is to open it, and then when I click the open button, it just brings me back to that same alert. Speaking of things you can't get past, I've noticed that when you use DropBox on the iPad, (when you first install it, at least), it brings you to the welcome page, and there's something that says to learn more swipe, and if you already have an account sign in, but when you double-tap it, it does absolutely nothing, and I haven't found anything you can do about it, except get sighted help, turn VoiceOver off, and get them to click on the sign in thing, and then turn VoiceOver back on, and then it'll let you go to the sign in page where you type in your email and password and can sign in like normal. Also, while you're in DropBox at that welcome page, you cannot click the home-button three times to turn voiceOver off; you have to either go to the home-screen, turn voiceover off there and get the sighted person to access Dropbox and get you to the sign-in page, or else hold down the home-button and tell seri to turn voiceOver off, get the sighted person to get you to the sign in page, and then tell seri to turn voiceover back on; either way, it's a huge hassle. I've actually gotten a sighted person to watch me figure it out, and she could see the sign-in page on DropBox there, but there was no way for me to get to it with voiceover on my own. Anyhow, I hope there are some DropBox people on this list because I think this should be fixed; everything else works fine on Dropbox. Also, this is with the latest iPad, so I don't know what it does with my iPhone four. I might try it just to see what happens; I think I remember trying it before, and I never had problems with it on the iPhone 4. Does anyone else have this problem? God Bless!!!

Re: Hanging Up Calls
Have you reported this, plus your normal skill with gestures, to Apple Accessibility? Unfortunately, until a cause can be determined, a fix is most likely not going to occur. That said, in the original email, the person stated that one, two-finger double tap starts music in the player usually in a couple attempts, and two, the single-finger vertical flick up is not consistent - the volume goes up and down. These two statements point to the conclusion that the author needs more practice in the practice area. David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +64 21 2288 288 Sent from my iPhone On 4 Dec 2013, at 7:28, Alex Hall mehg...@gmail.com wrote: David, I am great at these gestures, and get them right just about 100% of the time as well. I have used iOS successfully for three years, so trust me when I say: I know what I'm doing. In iOS7.0.4, I have found, on rare occasions, the two-finger double tap to simply not work. I have had this happen twice in the past few days: a call is coming in, so I tap two fingers twice, and nothing happens. I have been sort of monitoring this thread, so both times I methodically checked my finger position, placement on the screen, tap speed, and so on, and tried several more times. The gesture simply fails to work every so often, for no reason I can think of. Like you, I originally figured that those who were having trouble were just doing it wrong, but I must now say that there seems to be a bug with this gesture. Unfortunately, it is a rare one, so is hard to pin down and reproduce, and those are the hardest to fix. On Dec 3, 2013, at 1:18 PM, David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com wrote: Please do not take this the wrong way. Double-tap the display with four fingers, or go to settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, practice area, and perform much more practice with your gestures. You really need to get to the point where you are performing the gestures you believe you are performing 100% of the time. By your message, it is clear that this is not currently the case. For instance, when you perform the single-finger vertical flick to change the volume, or any other flicker, the choice does not go up and down and up again unless your gestures are not precise. The same is true with the two-finger double tap. You state you can get music to start and stop playing with just a few tries. I get music to start with one try and to stop with one try, always and every time I perform the command. This is because I practiced the gestures extensively until I started performing them 100% of the time. Absolutely nothing but lots of practice will correct your difficulties with the gestures. When answering and hanging up phone calls, you are most likely holding your two fingers too close together, so the touchscreen is only able to detect one finger. Because we become anxious when the gesture does not perform correctly the first time, the natural reaction is to tense up and cause our fingers to come even closer together before we try again. When the gesture continues not working, we do more of the same and get even more anxious. Remember, the gesture commands do work properly, all of the time, when we perform the commands properly. Practice, practice, practice, and when you think you finally have the commands down, practice some more because the first few times this happens, the chances are you are bored and flustered with the practicing. Remember, it initially took you a long time with lots of frustration and many mistakes when you learned to type, and when you learned to use the computer with the screen reader. This is no different.

In extremus are there any other methods for hanging up calls? Can you set how much voice over’s volume decreases when a call is initiated? You can’t use the volume rotor if there is no voice feedback. What percentage volume is recommended before calling to make voice over audible with the decrease in volume assuming I can get it to go over 25 percent. For me the rotor bug is not just the 25 percent limit, but also that if you move it from five percent to ten percent and keep going the same way sometimes you go back to 5 percent instead of on to 15 percent.

Yes, the OP may well need practice, but there are times on iOS7 when the gesture simply fails. This happened again today, for the third time total, and that is enough for me to report. So no, I have not reported it yet since I wanted to see if it was a fluke, but I am about to do so now that it has proven to not be a one-time oddity.

Unfortunately, until a cause can be determined, a fix is most likely not going to occur. That said, in the original email, the person stated that one, two-finger double tap starts music in the player usually in a couple attempts, and two, the single-finger vertical flick up is not consistent - the volume goes up and down. These two statements point to the conclusion that the author needs more practice in the practice area.

I have used iOS successfully for three years, so trust me when I say: I know what I'm doing. In iOS7.0.4, I have found, on rare occasions, the two-finger double tap to simply not work. I have had this happen twice in the past few days: a call is coming in, so I tap two fingers twice, and nothing happens. I have been sort of monitoring this thread, so both times I methodically checked my finger position, placement on the screen, tap speed, and so on, and tried several more times. The gesture simply fails to work every so often, for no reason I can think of. Like you, I originally figured that those who were having trouble were just doing it wrong, but I must now say that there seems to be a bug with this gesture. Unfortunately, it is a rare one, so is hard to pin down and reproduce, and those are the hardest to fix. On Dec 3, 2013, at 1:18 PM, David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com wrote: Please do not take this the wrong way. Double-tap the display with four fingers, or go to settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, practice area, and perform much more practice with your gestures. You really need to get to the point where you are performing the gestures you believe you are performing 100% of the time. By your message, it is clear that this is not currently the case. For instance, when you perform the single-finger vertical flick to change the volume, or any other flicker, the choice does not go up and down and up again unless your gestures are not precise. The same is true with the two-finger double tap. You state you can get music to start and stop playing with just a few tries. I get music to start with one try and to stop with one try, always and every time I perform the command. This is because I practiced the gestures extensively until I started performing them 100% of the time. Absolutely nothing but lots of practice will correct your difficulties with the gestures. When answering and hanging up phone calls, you are most likely holding your two fingers too close together, so the touchscreen is only able to detect one finger. Because we become anxious when the gesture does not perform correctly the first time, the natural reaction is to tense up and cause our fingers to come even closer together before we try again. When the gesture continues not working, we do more of the same and get even more anxious. Remember, the gesture commands do work properly, all of the time, when we perform the commands properly. Practice, practice, practice, and when you think you finally have the commands down, practice some more because the first few times this happens, the chances are you are bored and flustered with the practicing. Remember, it initially took you a long time with lots of frustration and many mistakes when you learned to type, and when you learned to use the computer with the screen reader. This is no different.

I thought that my gestures mayh have been sloppy, but the two finger double tap to pause audio in podcasts works on the first or second try. In extremus are there any other methods for hanging up calls? Can you set how much voice over’s volume decreases when a call is initiated? You can’t use the volume rotor if there is no voice feedback. What percentage volume is recommended before calling to
odd behavior with texting and pasting from the clipboard
I'm having a strange problem. I use MBraille for most of my keyboard work. Starting last Wednesday or Thursday I have had difficulty sending a text using MBraille. When I send a message in the usual way using the on-screen keyboard the text sends, but when I send from within the MBraille app it's very random. If I turn the phone off and then on again I can send a few texts from the app, then not again. Today there's another wrinkle that makes me wonder if it's a phone problem rather than just an MBraille issue. I wrote an email using MBraille, and went into an email I was replying to. My plan was to paste the email into the message and send it that way. When I went to the edit area using the rotor there was no paste option. I turned the phone off and on again, then held the home and lock button for ten seconds to reboot the phone. There still is no paste prompt. The select all and select and all that other stuff shows up, but not the paste. When I went back to check to make sure there was still text in the MBraille app the text was still there. I'm using an IPhone 4S running IOS 7.04. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks. I'm also sending this to the MBraille list in hopes that someone will have an answer. I love using the MBraille app and hope there is a solution to this problem. God bless! Paula and Babe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: BARD app question
It's true you don't have to use iTunes, but you can definitely use iTunes if you want. Here are some instructions that Russ found and posted to the list a while ago: Doing some research, I found the following, hope it helps: Loading books into the BARDmobile app The BARDmobile app is able to play any DAISY/NISO 2005 formatted book. To load the books into the iOS device for playback use the following instructions. 1. If not in a ZIP archive format. You should compress the directory holding the books files into a ZIP file. 2. Connect the iOS device to your computer with a USB cable. 3. Open the iTunes application and select the iOS device button at the right of the main window. 4. select the Apps radio button on the main screen. 5. At the bottom of the Apps screen is a section titled File Sharing with a column list of apps. One of those will be the BARDmobile app select it. 6. Press the Add… button located in the bottom right of the screen. This will give you a dialog to select the ZIP file from step one. The book will then be added to the app. You may need to restart BARDmobile to see the new book. NOTE: At this time the BARDmobile app will only play DAISY/NISO 2005 books. Other DAISY formats such as DAISY 2.02 and ePub 3 will simply fail to load. On 12/03/2013 01:26 PM, Steve wrote: You don't use iTunes.

Hello Scott: I wonder about a couple of things here. First, in Canada, I had to buy an enhanced package to get NFL games on the Internet. Once that was done, I was able to listen to NFL feeds just fine. Perhaps you can try another sport tonight such as hockey that is not subject to the same restrictions and see if you have the same problem.

Re: red laser
If you have the number, you can use the Digit-Eyes UPC database without charge -- you can also develop your own app or website that uses it. More information is at http://www.digit-eyes.com/gtin/ On Monday, November 18, 2013 9:47:23 AM UTC-6, Sandratomkins wrote: Dan, I wonder if you know about this? At the bottom of the results screen of RedLaser there are two sort of edit fields, though they are not exactly edit fields, The first is called UPC, and the second, I am afraid, I have forgotten. But you can paste and number in there if you wish. Anyway, the implication is that there is a direct link to the UPC database, but when I double tap tap UPC nothing happens. Have you found a way to do this? Otherwise, one has to go to Safari put in the right address for the UPC database and then choose look up and so on and so on and so on. I am just wondering if there is a quicker way directly from the RedLaser app. By the way, I completely agree with you when you suggest there are many ways of achieving the same ends and not forget the existing technology many of us (not me though) still have. By the same token, many of these camera apps are actually easy to yuse, but may require a little bit of teaching just to get going with them.

The 5S is going to do better than a 5 or 4S simply because it has more processing power and better optics. Lighting is something that is easily forgotten. When I was working on the currency identification package for the old Nokia phones, I was cruising along through a set of bills, testing them over and over. At some point, I was getting miss after miss. The softtware just refused to identify anything which was surprising because it had been doing so well. What happened was that my wife went up to bed and turned the lights off on her way upstairs. With the advent of all these barcode or OCR options for cell phones, we also cannot forget the old options of a scanner and your computer, if you have that available to you. You do not need one of the adaptive options for OCR, so it can be done pretty cheaply, since most scanners come with free OCR software. I'm not saying that is an option for everyone, but we can often easily forget some tricks as we learn new ones. I had to learn this lesson when I started working on the bar code scanning project. I always assumed the bar code was on the price sticker. it isn't. The bar code is simply printed on the label or box, so you can't feel it. If you are concentrating on the area of a sticker, you are not going to find the bar code. If a bar code scanner gives you a code, but no product description, you can plug that into UPCDatabase.com and possibly find the product. There are other UPC databases, UPCDatabase.com is just the one I typically use. You can even plug it into directionsForMe.org and get the cooking instructions or whatever else from the product packaging. Anyway, at least at this time, I don't believe that any one tool will be a single solution for all scenarios, so I am glad there are various ways to skin various cats.

Re: Bluetooth helps determine location. Fact or fiction.
Hi, Short answer: no. Longer answer: no see below for why this is the case. The only way that this would have a chance of working is if a Blutooth device database was created with information about devices and their locations, in the same fassion as the WIFI hotspot database. However, given the reasonably short range of most Blutooth devices, any company that wanted to attempt this would most likely have to enter peoples properties to gather any sizable amount of data. On top of this, the mobile nature of Blutooth devices would make for terrible accuracy levels; after all, do you really leave your iPhone in one place all the time? If you're anything like me you take it almost everyware you go - my 4S has been all over England and has been known to visit wales every now and again. Consider what would happen if you tried to check your location whilst on a train: undoubtedly there will be a large number of Blutooth devices in range, but their homes would be spread out throughout the country, making the task of determining your actual location more or less inpossible. Lastly, WIFI access points are almost always left on, whereas I only really turn Blutooth on when I'm using it. Even if we set aside the above problems, it's entirely possible that a user may not have her Blutooth turned on when data was being gathered, resulting in her device not being indexed. Cheers, Ben. On 12/3/13, Christopher Chaltain chalt...@gmail.com wrote: I haven't read this. Where did you read this? Given that bluetooth only has a 30 foot range, I wouldn't think it would help with GPS accuracy. Wifi does help with GPS accuracy though. That's because GPS apps, in addition to checking with GPS satellites, also check with hot spot databases and triangulate your location based on the hot spots you're around. On 12/03/2013 12:28 PM, Neal Ewers wrote: Hi, I read somewhere that having Bluetooth turned on allows the phone to know more about where you are. Yes? No?

Re: Looking for Inexpensive VoiceOver Compatible Single Earpiece
Hi, I got the Plantronics Voiager bluetooth headset about a month ago and really like it. After reading the emails yesterday I tested it and it does have the play/stop feature, a button on the ear piece. It has two buttons on the part that rides above your ear, the power on/off button and the volume button. It totally talks to you and tells you what its doing. So when you turn it on, it says power on and how much charge is on the battery. Then when you turn it off it says power off. The vollume up has an assending tone and going down a desending tone. On the little arm where the mike is, where it attaches to the little part that goes in your ear, there are two buttons that do multiple things. tell how much power is left in the charge, switch to voice commands, answer and hang up a call, start/stop a book or music, mute/unmute. I think it does more things I haven't discovered yet. I did just discover a few days ago that in the voice commands it has a feature that is called voicest and it can do emails, etc all by voice, so it will send and receive voice mails and more. There is a small subscription fee but in the one I got the first year is free. I didn't know about this when I bought it. I got it at Best Buy for $99. The more I use it and discover more cool things it can do the more I love it. I had no idea what I was getting. The guy just said that model sells the most at that store and it looked like it would work for me so I tried it. What everyone else loves the most isn't always what ends up working for me many times so I don't pay much attention to things just because they are popular. Has anyone else had any experience with this headset?

DropBox Accessible--With Work Arounds
Hi Helena, I am using an iPhone4 and iOS 6.1.2. I just went and opened DropBox on it. All of my folders/files are presented alphabetically, with the table index on the right side to adjust where I want to go. I am able to open a folder/file with no difficulty. I even tapped on the edit button to delete a file that I didn't need anymore. The action button listed a choice to upload, create a folder, and the edit function, but the only way I could get out of this menu was to press the edit button and then the cancel button in the upper left corner. The sort button gives you 2 choices to sort from A-Z or from newest to oldest. I have A-Z selected and I single finger double tapped on it to bring me back to the main screen. There is a search text field, which is accessible for me. I HTH.

I have that same problem with my flexy; it asks me to update it, but then when I click on that, it goes to the app-store, where the only choice I can pick is to open it, and then when I click the open button, it just brings me back to that same alert. Speaking of things you can't get past, I've noticed that when you use DropBox on the iPad, (when you first install it, at least), it brings you to the welcome page, and there's something that says to learn more swipe, and if you already have an account sign in, but when you double-tap it, it does absolutely nothing, and I haven't found anything you can do about it, except get sighted help, turn VoiceOver off, and get them to click on the sign in thing, and then turn VoiceOver back on, and then it'll let you go to the sign in page where you type in your email and password and can sign in like normal. Also, while you're in DropBox at that welcome page, you cannot click the home-button three times to turn voiceOver off; you have to either go to the home-screen, turn voiceover off there and get the sighted person to access Dropbox and get you to the sign-in page, or else hold down the home-button and tell seri to turn voiceOver off, get the sighted person to get you to the sign in page, and then tell seri to turn voiceover back on; either way, it's a huge hassle. I've actually gotten a sighted person to watch me figure it out, and she could see the sign-in page on DropBox there, but there was no way for me to get to it with voiceover on my own. Anyhow, I hope there are some DropBox people on this list because I think this should be fixed; everything else works fine on Dropbox. Also, this is with the latest iPad, so I don't know what it does with my iPhone four. I might try it just to see what happens; I think I remember trying it before, and I never had problems with it on the iPhone 4. Does anyone else have this problem? God Bless!!!

Re: Hanging Up Calls
I have not yet experienced that particular bug.

That said, in the original email, the person stated that one, two-finger double tap starts music in the player usually in a couple attempts, and two, the single-finger vertical flick up is not consistent - the volume goes up and down. These two statements point to the conclusion that the author needs more practice in the practice area.

I have used iOS successfully for three years, so trust me when I say: I know what I'm doing. In iOS7.0.4, I have found, on rare occasions, the two-finger double tap to simply not work. I have had this happen twice in the past few days: a call is coming in, so I tap two fingers twice, and nothing happens. I have been sort of monitoring this thread, so both times I methodically checked my finger position, placement on the screen, tap speed, and so on, and tried several more times. The gesture simply fails to work every so often, for no reason I can think of. Like you, I originally figured that those who were having trouble were just doing it wrong, but I must now say that there seems to be a bug with this gesture. Unfortunately, it is a rare one, so is hard to pin down and reproduce, and those are the hardest to fix. On Dec 3, 2013, at 1:18 PM, David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com wrote: Please do not take this the wrong way. Double-tap the display with four fingers, or go to settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, practice area, and perform much more practice with your gestures. You really need to get to the point where you are performing the gestures you believe you are performing 100% of the time. By your message, it is clear that this is not currently the case. For instance, when you perform the single-finger vertical flick to change the volume, or any other flicker, the choice does not go up and down and up again unless your gestures are not precise. The same is true with the two-finger double tap. You state you can get music to start and stop playing with just a few tries. I get music to start with one try and to stop with one try, always and every time I perform the command. This is because I practiced the gestures extensively until I started performing them 100% of the time. Absolutely nothing but lots of practice will correct your difficulties with the gestures. When answering and hanging up phone calls, you are most likely holding your two fingers too close together, so the touchscreen is only able to detect one finger. Because we become anxious when the gesture does not perform correctly the first time, the natural reaction is to tense up and cause our fingers to come even closer together before we try again. When the gesture continues not working, we do more of the same and get even more anxious. Remember, the gesture commands do work properly, all of the time, when we perform the commands properly. Practice, practice, practice, and when you think you finally have the commands down, practice some more because the first few times this happens, the chances are you are bored and flustered with the practicing. Remember, it initially took you a long time with lots of frustration and many mistakes when you learned to type, and when you learned to use the computer with the screen reader. This is no different.

RE: Bluetooth helps determine location. Fact or fiction.
However, the new apple beacons are small, short range Bluetooth devices that will be coming out soon. They will be used by businesses to push specials and advertisements, and give very accurate close range Bluetooth navigation through triangulation or to a particular beacon -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ben Mustill-Rose Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2013 3:50 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Bluetooth helps determine location. Fact or fiction. Hi, Short answer: no. Longer answer: no see below for why this is the case. The only way that this would have a chance of working is if a Blutooth device database was created with information about devices and their locations, in the same fassion as the WIFI hotspot database. However, given the reasonably short range of most Blutooth devices, any company that wanted to attempt this would most likely have to enter peoples properties to gather any sizable amount of data. On top of this, the mobile nature of Blutooth devices would make for terrible accuracy levels; after all, do you really leave your iPhone in one place all the time? If you're anything like me you take it almost everyware you go - my 4S has been all over England and has been known to visit wales every now and again. Consider what would happen if you tried to check your location whilst on a train: undoubtedly there will be a large number of Blutooth devices in range, but their homes would be spread out throughout the country, making the task of determining your actual location more or less inpossible. Lastly, WIFI access points are almost always left on, whereas I only really turn Blutooth on when I'm using it. Even if we set aside the above problems, it's entirely possible that a user may not have her Blutooth turned on when data was being gathered, resulting in her device not being indexed. Cheers, Ben.

Given that bluetooth only has a 30 foot range, I wouldn't think it would help with GPS accuracy. Wifi does help with GPS accuracy though. That's because GPS apps, in addition to checking with GPS satellites, also check with hot spot databases and triangulate your location based on the hot spots you're around.

Re: barns and noble nook app
Hi Mary, Joanne, Andrew, David, and Others, As far as I know, the Nook App is only available in countries where the Nook device can be purchased in stores. That means the U.S., where the Nook is sold in Barnes and Noble's brick and mortar stoes, and the U.K., where Barnes and Noble arranged for the John Lewis stores to sell the Nook just a month or two before the Nook app was made accessible. I posted this information a year ago to the Mac-access list, which is hosted in the U.K., along with a quote from the Wall Street Journal that mentioned how Barnes and Noble was extending its presence in the U.K. through their arrangement to have the John Lewis stores sell the Nook. Their are no stores in Canada so the Nook app isn't available in that store. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Wednesday, November 27, 2013 12:16:57 PM UTC-10, Mary Otten wrote: I think that is correct.

Re: multiple iPad configuration
Hi, you can do it by using the same Apple iTunes ID for your apps and a separate Apple id for each iPad for the iCloud or iMessage or Facetime portion. The end result is that you can purchase apps just once for all iPads involved, but each will be able to be used for Facetime and iMessage as long as each has their own Apple ID.

Is It Possible to Access ID3 Tag Info With Any Music Apps?
All of my music is in mp3 format with the songs containing ID3 tag info such as artist name, track title, year, comments, etc. I've gotten used to accessing this tag info on my Victor Reader Stream by pressing the 5 key twice quickly. I'm curious whether any iPhone music apps provide similar access to this tag information with VoiceOver speaking the data. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Re: A radium question.
I think this is a very good app for a first release. I do think we should be able to move stations, and I have written a polite request to the developer for this. It beats the heck out of that stupid XML however. And it's nice to have all your stuff in one place if you have sky and xm and other stations you like.

Online only subscriptions will not play sporting events. You have to have a radio active, as well as an online subscription, in order to listen to sports online.

It appears not to have a time limit; carries the on-line only Sirius Xm content, doesn't seem to have the time limits that Sirius Xm does, and plays within about twenty seconds of the live broadcast which beats the heck out of about a five minute lag on the SiriusXm app. The only thing I can't do with Radium is customize the MySxm experience or play On Demand shows.
