Re: Ios 7.11 is out

2014-04-23 Thread MamaPeach
My suggestion is to wait it out. Thousands, probably way more than that, of 
people are trying to get this same download. The servers are just swamped. Give 
it a bit of time and you should be able to download it just fine.

Hi Alex,

Okay, I have done the agreement before to download any updates. 

But  when I double tap on the download and  install  it doesn't do anything or 
take me to the agreement page .

I can't even get my wy fy to work so I can do the download. I do have wy fy 
turned on in my phone and I do have a wirerless router hear at home and I use 
belkin for my network connection  with the passcode but it won't even except 
that.

I successfully downloaded the last update with out any problems but this time  
I'm having problems and I don't know  what to do next ? Any ideas?

Consider looking in the app store for things like TypeInBraille,  mBraille, 
BrailleTouch; and a few others.

Tell us what else you can offer, then we might think about it some more.

We don't mind supporting students on their final year projects,  but it is

Hello,

My name is Ryan Drapeau and I’m working with the mobile accessibility group
at the University of Washington. We are looking for volunteers to give us
feedback on an iPhone app that we have been developing. In order to help,
you must be proficient on iOS and you should also know Braille. This can be
done remotely.

The app is called Perkinput. Perkinput is a new way to enter text on your
iPhone or iPad without using a keyboard. Perkinput is based on the Braille
keyboard. After you enter something in the Perkinput app, you can send that
text in an email, a text message, or simply copy the text and paste it in
any other application.

Let me know if you'd be interested in learning more about it or feel free
to download it yourself on the iTunes Store: iOS

Best,
Ryan

Yes, we update firmware from time to time to add more functions, but users

Weekly Prayer and Thought:

Our thoughts in this present life should turn on the praise of God,
because it is in praising God that we shall rejoice for ever in the life
to come; and no one can be ready for the next life unless he trains
himself for it now. So we praise God during our earthly life, and at the
same time we make our petitions to him. Our praise is expressed with
joy, our petitions with yearning. We have been promised something we do
not yet possess, and because the promise was made by one who keeps his
word, we trust him and are glad; but insofar as possession is delayed,
we can only long and yearn for it. It is good for us to persevere in
longing until we receive what was promised, and yearning is over; then
praise alone will remain. (

Has Anybody Else Experienced Spurious Phone Calling

2014-04-23 Thread Bill Gallik
Until earlier this afternoon, I had some entries in my Recent Calls frame 
that I am not to contact.  The problem I ran into is that when I tried to 
delete other entries in the Recents list, instead of deleting the (what I 
thought) the selected item, a telephone call would be initiated on the 
untouchable entry.


Has anybody else experienced anything like this?

Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't give such an issue much thought.  But 
for the untouchable contact entries it has been a huge concern.  And, I 
now have had an ATT associate delete all references to such contacts.

Re: Tips for using RiVO the portable keyboard about the size of a credit card for iPhone.

2014-04-23 Thread Ein
Thanks for the question. Although we don't think there could be a big 
change in the firmware, but if there's an update that our customers ever 
want to get, then they can send to us for the update. Please understand 
that doing this would involve postage costs, back and forth. For example, 
one way from here to US, it costs about $30 USD, 3 to 4 days, by airmail. 
In fact, this is the service that we are currently using although we just 
charge them $15 USD anywhere in the world. Otherwise, I know there's a 
cheaper way to send, which costs about $10 USD with an option for 
insuarance and registration, but it might take a few weeks for the 
delivery. Sorry for this issue. But as I mentioned, probably there will be 
just minor updates, if any.

Thanks.

One thing we want to tell you here is that if it ever comes a time when 
Apple changes many things and it becomes useless without firmware updates, 
or we have big updates in the firmware for our customers, then we will 
surely design and produce another hardware to overcome the problems. Since 
we have experienced the issue, know the concern of our customers, will have 
enough knowhow and knowledge by that time, we will surely make it 
upgradable by users. Then we promise we will definitely have a reasonable 
compensation sales plan to have our valuable customers come with us. We 
hope you understand, believe and trust us in this. The original design of 
RiVO interface for iPhone had been started from discussion with blind 
people at CSUN conference about iPhone and its accessibility issues. We 
really thank them. We also thank our customers who have learned, used and 
sent us valuable feedback over the years about this seemingly complex 
interface. It will surely turn out to be an easy and intuitive interface 
once you try it although there's none like this before. We think we are 
committed to this and we really want to do our best to make our blind 
customers good at using touchscreen smart devices with RiVO. Thanks.

 Thanks for the question. Although we don't think there could be a big 
 change in the firmware, but if there's an update that our customers ever 
 want to get, then they can send to us for the update. Please understand 
 that doing this would involve postage costs, back and forth. For example, 
 one way from here to US, it costs about $30 USD, 3 to 4 days, by airmail. 
 In fact, this is the service that we are currently using although we just 
 charge them $15 USD anywhere in the world. Otherwise, I know there's a 
 cheaper way to send, which costs about $10 USD with an option for 
 insuarance and registration, but it might take a few weeks for the 
 delivery. Sorry for this issue. But as I mentioned, probably there will be 
 just minor updates, if any.

 Thanks.

 Yes, we update firmware from time to time to add more functions, but

 cannot update new firmware. We're sorry about this. However, since 
 current 
 RiVO is as comprehensive as possible in its current form to work with all

RE: mini connect.

2014-04-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
No, not a normal HDMI cable, no iDevice has an HDMI port. However, Apple
does make a Lightning Digital AV Adapter. It is an adapter you plug into the
Lightning port on your iPad Mini and then you can use a normal HDMI cable to
connect the iPad Mini to your TV. The adapter is $55, here is a link to it
in the Apple Online Store:

 

 http://store.apple.com/ca/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
http://store.apple.com/ca/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter

 

You may find less expensive Lightning to HDMI adapters on Amazon or other
electronics sites. Alternatively you can spend $45 or so more and get an
Apple TV. It is a small box which you connect to your home WiFi or you can
also connect it to your router with an Ethernet cable and you then connect
its HDMI output to an HDMI input on your TV or surround sound receiver. You
would then use Airplay to play content from your iPad Mini to your Apple TV
wirelessly and you can also use Airplay mirroring which will show your iPad
screen on your TV.

 

To me the Apple TV is the more attractive option as it is also a wonderful
device to use by itself for consuming content from Netflix (if you have a
subscription), Youtube and other services. You can, of course, also buy and
rent movies from iTunes via the Apple TV and play anything from your iTunes
library on the computer on your TV.

 

Keep in mind that it is pretty much a given that Apple will release the
fourth Generation Apple TV this year. It is quite likely that it will be
announced and shown at Apple's world wide developer conference on June 2
when iOS 8 will also be unveiled.

Re: Bible Reading App

  Hello everyone. Recently, the Bible app was updated and accessibility was 
broken. When I open the Bible app I get the verse of the day. When I activate 
the Menu button to access the menu so that I can launch my reading plan the 
menu is inaccessible to VoiceOver. Here's the work around that I found.

  1. I double tap on the menu button.

  2.  I turn off Voiceover with the Tripple Click Home feature.

  3. I single tap on the lower right hand corner of the screen.

  4. I turn on Voiceover with the Tripple Click Home feature.

  My reading plan is launched. The developers actually made some improvements. 
First, if you use the Audio version, the app automatically speaks each reading. 
Then a dialog box opens with each reading checked. The dialog box shows 
progress and gives me the opportunity to share on Facebook and Twitter. I 
activate the Done button to close the dialog. As long as I don't close the app, 
my reading plan appears when I bring focus to the app. Now, for some of you 
savy influencers, how do we bring this to the attention of the developers and 
get them to fix it. How do we successfully play hide and seek when decision 
makers are it?

   

  Thanks so much.

I like the concept, but at that price I can’t afford to buy a new unit just 
because i want the latest features.

Thanks again for the review to share your experience with others. As I replied 
in the review, I think it could serve an FAQ style of what people might want to 
know. I hope interested people also read comments to the review to understand 
better about what RiVO provides and who RiVO is made for.

Here is the link to the review for your convenience.

Yes, we update firmware from time to time to add more functions, but users
cannot update new firmware. We're sorry about this. However, since current
RiVO is as comprehensive as possible in its current form to work with all
the iOS versions, there will be just minor updates, if any.

Please remember when you submit some things to Apple it may take a two to three 
month period to sort out.  Also when sending reports please outline the steps 
you use to produce the bug.  The more that they have to work with the faster 
they can get the bug squashed.

Re: changing quantities in the pizza hut app

Hi all, I didn't download and successfully create an sign into my account and

everything. The screen still jumps around a bit, but you can get back there by 
flicking. I think in a lot of things it is harder now to edit and read on the

successfully placed and delivered. Anyone needs any help please let me know.

Messages app suddenly very sluggish

Hi,  
I opened my messages app on my iPhone yesterday and I don’t know whether I was 
swiping to fast or something but all of a sudden the app is very sluggish and 
seems like it’s freezing up.  
I reset the phone a few times and plugged it in to pc to sync but still the 
same issue is there.  
Other than contacting apple, I don’t know what else to do.  
I’m just hoping this can be fixed.

Re: Bible Reading App

2014-04-23 Thread Keith Bundy
I did write a review for the app this morning, stating that, though it
is a great resource, accessibility has been broken for those of us who
are blind or visually impaired. Don't know if the review will help the
company see the need for, and value of, improved accessibility, but,
in my opinion, several reviews with less than a four-star rating (I
rated it three) couldn't hurt our cause.

   Hello everyone. Recently, the Bible app was updated and accessibility was
 broken. When I open the Bible app I get the verse of the day. When I
 activate the Menu button to access the menu so that I can launch my reading
 plan the menu is inaccessible to VoiceOver. Here's the work around that I
 found.

   1. I double tap on the menu button.

   2.  I turn off Voiceover with the Tripple Click Home feature.

   3. I single tap on the lower right hand corner of the screen.

   4. I turn on Voiceover with the Tripple Click Home feature.

   My reading plan is launched. The developers actually made some
 improvements. First, if you use the Audio version, the app automatically
 speaks each reading. Then a dialog box opens with each reading checked. The
 dialog box shows progress and gives me the opportunity to share on Facebook
 and Twitter. I activate the Done button to close the dialog. As long as I
 don't close the app, my reading plan appears when I bring focus to the app.
 Now, for some of you savy influencers, how do we bring this to the attention
 of the developers and get them to fix it. How do we successfully play hide
 and seek when decision makers are it?



   Thanks so much.

Re: Malware for jailbroken devices

2014-04-23 Thread Jerry Mader
My question is, is 7.1 jailbreak a boy yet? I've been so out of the loop lately 
with my radio station coming back online that I don't even know. However if it 
isn't, is there anyway I can go back to 7.04? The reason I ask this is because 
I had a very minor accident with my phone, where I downloaded patch that I 
wasn't paying attention to real well the notes on the patch, and it ended up 
messing up my phone so that it kept going in a boot loop, I had no other choice 
then but to re-download  7.1. I'm thinking there's no other way that I could 
ever go back to 7.04 is there? All the help would be very appreciated. Thank

RE: Eyes-Free Text Input on iOS

2014-04-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I have been following this thread with interest and curiocity. While I can
read braille, I have hand injuries which prevent me from using any app which
uses braille input, however, I find it strange how Ryan's proposal seems to
be received in a somewhat negative way. Yes, there are already 2 or maybe 3
such apps out there, but why not support what Ryan and his team are doing
and then judging whether their app is good or not. Considering how many
audio recorder, notetaking, navigation/GPS apps are out there (and these are
just 3 areas, I could name many more) what is wrong with having
alternatives? Maybe Ryan and his team are going to release an app which is
just going to blow all the others out of the water, maybe it's more or less
the same and maybe it's a total flop; but to point out that he should have
done his research as there are already 2 apps out there and speculating that
it probably won't be very good because it's done by a bunch of students
instead of a programmer with 30-year experience I find strange. Anyhow,
while this programmer may have written code on an early DOS machine or maybe
a Commodore, he or she certainly doesn't have 30 years experience with
writing iOS apps since it's only been out for 7 years.Some kid who started
writing apps at 15 would now be more or less ready to graduate university at
22 and could have written iOS apps for as long as iOS is around. Anybody who
wants to know about the app and find out how it differs or is going to
differ from MBraille could just sign up for the testing since I assume the
app is not completely done and ready for prime time in which case they could
have just released it informing the Viphone community of its existence.

 

Anyhow, just some thoughts and I do hope Ryan finds some people who will
participate in a constructive way and I wish him luck. After all, consider
how you would like to be treated were you in his place doing something like
this as a university project.

Sieghard

Re: Eyes-Free Text Input on iOS

2014-04-23 Thread Alex Hall
I agree, I was surprised at the reception. I hope my own message on the topic 
didn't come across as negative - I was just wondering what features this app 
has. It sounds like it uses a new method of input, so details on that would be 
interesting.

I think people are still stinging from BrailleTouch. It was the first app of 
its kind (no, I'm not counting TypeInBraille) and many of us spent money on it. 
Then, the developer vanished, and the app hasn't been updated since, leaving 
many people to feel like they wasted their money and paid a developer to take 
the cash and run. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause the

 Hello,
 
 My name is Ryan Drapeau and I'm working with the mobile accessibility group
 at the University of Washington. We are looking for volunteers to give us
 feedback on an iPhone app that we have been developing. In order to help,
 you must be proficient on iOS and you should also know Braille. This can be
 done remotely.
 
 The app is called Perkinput. Perkinput is a new way to enter text on your
 iPhone or iPad without using a keyboard. Perkinput is based on the Braille
 keyboard. After you enter something in the Perkinput app, you can send that
 text in an email, a text message, or simply copy the text and paste it in
 any other application.
 
 Let me know if you'd be interested in learning more about it or feel free
 to download it yourself on the iTunes Store: iOS

 Best,

Re: Eyes-Free Text Input on iOS

2014-04-23 Thread Richard Turner
The app is free.
The app description explains a little about the app's input method.
It is for one handed input.
So if you are familiar with braille note taking devices that have a one handed 
mode, you press the dots in the 1.2.3 column first, then press the dots that 
would be in the right column, but you actually are pressing in the same place 
just that the numbers change to 4.5.6.
If there are no right-hand donss, you tap with your little finger. Tap twice 
with your little finger to enter a space.

Those who are competent with an app like MBraille can input text even
without much audio feedback which could be useful in a noisy environment and
I think also that for people who practice with this and who are good braille

would be in the right column, but you actually are pressing in the same place 
just that the numbers change to 4.5.6.
If there are no right-hand donss, you tap with your little finger. Tap twice

I think people are still stinging from BrailleTouch. It was the first app of 
its kind (no, I'm not counting TypeInBraille) and many of us spent money on it. 
Then, the developer vanished, and the app hasn't been updated since, leaving 
many people to feel like they wasted their money and paid a developer to take 
the cash and run. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause the 
reaction to this new app.

apps out there, but why not support what Ryan and his team are doing and then 
judging whether their app is good or not. Considering how many audio recorder, 
notetaking, navigation/GPS apps are out there (and these are just 3 areas, I 
could name many more) what is wrong with having alternatives? Maybe Ryan and 
his team are going to release an app which is just going to blow all the others 
out of the water, maybe it’s more or less the same and maybe it’s a total flop; 
but to point out that he should have done his research as there are already 2 
apps out there and speculating that it probably won’t be very good because it’s 
done by a bunch of students instead of a prog

rammer with 30-year experience I find strange. Anyhow, while this programmer 
may have written code on an early DOS machine or maybe a Commodore, he or she 
certainly doesn’t have 30 years experience with writing iOS apps since it’s 
only been out for 7 years.Some kid who started writing apps at 15 would now be 
more or less ready to graduate university at 22 and could have written iOS apps 
for as long as iOS is around. Anybody who wants to know about the app and find 
out how it differs or is going to differ from MBraille could just sign up for 
the testing since I assume the app is not completely done and ready for prime 
time in which case they could have just released it informing the Viphone 
community of its existence.


Anyhow, just some thoughts and I do hope Ryan finds some people who will 
participate in a constructive way and I wish him luck. After all, consider how 
you would like to be treated were you in his place doing something like this as

2014-04-23 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
Hello


I like the concept of your app although I'll probably stick to a 2 handed inpot 
method. 
i can see how in some instances it could be useful to have one hand free. 

So here are some  first impressions:
I could not easily find a way to send feedback. Would be nice if you added this 
as an option within the app.

It would be good if the app would indicate how to hold the phone in landskape; 
with home button to the left or right. As it is, it took me a few tries to 
realise I have to  turn the phone around 180 degrees. 

Also there's not clear documentation about deleting and editing in the input 
screen. 

Great start and intresting concept. 

Let me know if I can help in any other way.

Best,

Hello,

My name is Ryan Drapeau and I’m working with the mobile accessibility 
group
at the University of Washington. We are looking for volunteers to give 
us
feedback on an iPhone app that we have been developing. In order to 
help,
you must be proficient on iOS and you should also know Braille. This can 
be
done remotely.

The app is called Perkinput. Perkinput is a new way to enter text on 
your
iPhone or iPad without using a keyboard. Perkinput is based on the 
Braille
keyboard. After you enter something in the Perkinput app, you can send 
that
text in an email, a text message, or simply copy the text and paste it 
in
any other application.

Let me know if you'd be interested in learning more about it or feel 
free
to download it yourself on the iTunes Store: iOS

Re: Ios 7.11 is out

2014-04-23 Thread Christina C.
Ok, I will try to explain this speaker problem. If I use dictation in a text 
field, the speaker stays on and drains my battery. I can hear the speaker 
hissing. I am on an iPhone 5S and I do not know if this happens with other 
iDevices. Use dictation in a text field, then in a couple of minutes, put your 
ear up to the speaker, and listen for a hiss. My speaker is located down at the 
bottom right corner. If I use Siri via the home button after I use dictation, 
the speaker will turn off after a minute. However, if I forget to use Siri, my 
speaker stays on and my battery very quickly drains.

I have not run the update, I am waiting a bit for some of the download traffic 
to slow down a bit, besides, I have not received an alert on my phone yet. :) 
After I run the update I will check to see if the speaker problem persists.

Re: Eyes-Free Text Input on iOS

2014-04-23 Thread RobH.
If you can type fluently on the virtual keyboard, then it is of course, 
worth doing just that.  For less fluent typists, then braille input is good. 
We can do it without having to pay so much attention to the mechanics of 
putting it in letter by letter.
Others just use BT QWERTTY keyboards and get round it that way.

Each to their own.

Re: gps application with new features - Seeing Assistant Move

2014-04-23 Thread Feliciano G
Hi,
 I’m not familiar with this app, I would like to know what your guys’s 
expiriences with this app compared to others that are similar. If you guys can 
give me some feedback I’d really appreciate it. I currently use blind square 
when trying to find a location, Google maps for transit info. Trialed the 
seeing eye app, but didn’t find my self using it as much to justifiy the cost, 
so I use Google maps in place of that. thanks

download databases directly from web sites or import from an e-mail 
- associating an application with the extension .ckp - the ability to import 
Loadstone checkpoints as a route 
- new action Edit point: view and edit the name and coordinates of a point, 
read saved accuracy 
- alarm for tracked points, new setting “alarm radius” is used to set how close 
to the point will be run alarm 
- added intermediate directions in exploration mode, e.g. north-east 
- simulating the new location does not require the stopping of simulating the 
previous point 
- visualization of the route on the map 
- database name can be changed 
- altitude above the level of the seas added to the GPS information

Ok, fair points, and I accept them.

Research into the competition is still good to seek out  the strengths, 
weaknesses, and eventually the gap in the market that needs a plug.  Then, 
as you say, it would be even more worth while.

I have been following this thread with interest and curiocity. While I can
read braille, I have hand injuries which prevent me from using any app which
uses braille input, however, I find it strange how Ryan's proposal seems to
be received in a somewhat negative way. Yes, there are already 2 or maybe 3
such apps out there, but why not support what Ryan and his team are doing
and then judging whether their app is good or not. Considering how many
audio recorder, notetaking, navigation/GPS apps are out there (and these are
just 3 areas, I could name many more) what is wrong with having
alternatives? Maybe Ryan and his team are going to release an app which is
just going to blow all the others out of the water, maybe it's more or less
the same and maybe it's a total flop; but to point out that he should have
done his research as there are already 2 apps out there and speculating that
it probably won't be very good because it's done by a bunch of students
instead of a programmer with 30-year experience I find strange. Anyhow,
while this programmer may have written code on an early DOS machine or maybe
a Commodore, he or she certainly doesn't have 30 years experience with
writing iOS apps since it's only been out for 7 years.Some kid who started
writing apps at 15 would now be more or less ready to graduate university at
22 and could have written iOS apps for as long as iOS is around. Anybody who
wants to know about the app and find out how it differs or is going to
differ from MBraille could just sign up for the testing since I assume the
app is not completely done and ready for prime time in which case they could
have just released it informing the Viphone community of its existence.



Anyhow, just some thoughts and I do hope Ryan finds some people who will
participate in a constructive way and I wish him luck. After all, consider
how you would like to be treated were you in his place doing something like
this as a university project.

Re: Eyes-Free Text Input on iOS

2014-04-23 Thread RobH.
Ok, osunds reasonable;  one step beyond TypeInBraille, but some of us got 
good at that.  Not sure how good tapping with a little finger is going to 
be,  mine aren't that agile when it comes to typing. A 1finger flick used to 
work well enough.

In truth, a simple or basic app that does its thing with absolute 
reliability - or as near as it gets within the limitations of the OS - it is 
worth keep ing on the device, if only as lifeboat fallback position.  E.g: 
I didn't discard TypeInBraille  for ages after I adopted mBraille, let alone 
BrailleTouch.

The app is free.
The app description explains a little about the app's input method.
It is for one handed input.
So if you are familiar with braille note taking devices that have a one 
handed mode, you press the dots in the 1.2.3 column first, then press the 
dots that would be in the right column, but you actually are pressing in the 
same place just that the numbers change to 4.5.6.
If there are no right-hand donss, you tap with your little finger. Tap twice 
with your little finger to enter a space.

Hi Christina,

OK, I do get this behavior as well and that is after the 7.1.1 update. I
have, however, not noticed that this significantly affects my battery
although it is hard to say and I will try to really test this by doing the
following:

Tonight I will dictate something so that this speaker hiss is happening. I
will make sure my iPhone is fully charged before, then I will lock the
screen and see where my battery level is in the morning.
Tomorrow evening I will do the same, but then use SIRI and listen to make
sure the speaker hiss goes away, then I'll lock the screen and check the
battery drain in the morning for the same amount of time.
I will have WiFi and Bluetooth on and empty the app switcher and this should
hopefully be a fairly objective test.

Certainly also something to email accessibil...@apple.com about.

 Subject: Re: Ios 7.11 is out
 
 Ok, I will try to explain this speaker problem. If I use dictation in a text
 field, the speaker stays on and drains my battery. I can hear the speaker
 hissing. I am on an iPhone 5S and I do not know if this happens with other
 iDevices. Use dictation in a text field, then in a couple of minutes, put
 your ear up to the speaker, and listen for a hiss. My speaker is located
 down at the bottom right corner. If I use Siri via the home button after I
 use dictation, the speaker will turn off after a minute. However, if I
 forget to use Siri, my speaker stays on and my battery very quickly drains.
 
 I have not run the update, I am waiting a bit for some of the download
 traffic to slow down a bit, besides, I have not received an alert on my
 phone yet. :) After I run the update I will check to see if the speaker
 problem persists.

 The app description explains a little about the app's input method.
 It is for one handed input.
 So if you are familiar with braille note taking devices that have a one 
 handed mode, you press the dots in the 1.2.3 column first, then press the 
 dots that would be in the right column, but you actually are pressing in the 
 same place just that the numbers change to 4.5.6.
 If there are no right-hand donss, you tap with your little finger. Tap twice 
 with your little finger to enter a space.

 I think people are still stinging from BrailleTouch. It was the first app of

 it. Then, the developer vanished, and the app hasn't been updated since, 
 leaving many people to feel like they wasted their money and paid a

Hello Christina and anyone else interested, unfortunately, updating my iPhone 
5s to 7.one.one has not corrected this issue. I also feel that this contributes 
to the battery drain issues that some of us of been experiencing. The 
workaround that I'm using for the time being is to trigger Siri after having 
used dictation. In other words, I close the Messages app, I press and hold home 
and ask Siri for my local temperature, she tells me what that is. And now after 
about a minute the speaker does shut off.

download version 7.1.1 or if I download version 7.1.1 will it download all
other version to update me to IOs 7.1.1?

I absolutely agree. University projects very often lead to a deeper

discouragement.

 Hello,

 My name is Ryan Drapeau and I'm working with the mobile accessibility group
 at the University of Washington. We are looking for volunteers to give us
 feedback on an iPhone app that we have been developing. In order to help,
 you must be proficient on iOS and you should also know Braille. This can be
 done remotely.

 The app is called Perkinput. Perkinput is a new way to enter text on your
 iPhone or iPad without using a keyboard. Perkinput is based on the Braille
 keyboard. After you enter something in the Perkinput app, you can send that
 text in an email, a text message, or simply copy the text and paste it in
 any other application.

 Let me know if you'd be interested in learning more about it or feel free
 to download it yourself on the iTunes Store: iOS

 Ryan

Re: Ios 7.11 is out

2014-04-23 Thread Christina C.
That is exactly what I do to make the speaker stop hissing. :) I just ask Siri 
for the current temperature. I forgot to note in my earlier email that the 
speaker always seems to hiss for around one minute but will then turn off. 
However, after dictating into a text field it will stay on for hours unless I 
trigger Siri. If I dictate before bed and don't force the speaker to shut off 
by using Siri, my 100% charged Phone will be down to 52 percent in the morning. 
Sometimes it will be at sixty something percent. This is very significant for 
me. :) As long as I use the Siri trick to make sure my speaker will shut off 
after a minute, I will have 99% battery in the morning. :)

 Hello Christina and anyone else interested, unfortunately, updating my iPhone 
 5s to 7.one.one has not corrected this issue. I also feel that this 
 contributes to the battery drain issues that some of us of been experiencing. 
 The workaround that I'm using for the time being is to trigger Siri after 
 having used dictation. In other words, I close the Messages app, I press and 
 hold home and ask Siri for my local temperature, she tells me what that is. 
 And now after about a minute the speaker does shut off.

 Ok, I will try to explain this speaker problem. If I use dictation in a text 
 field, the speaker stays on and drains my battery. I can hear the speaker 
 hissing. I am on an iPhone 5S and I do not know if this happens with other 
 iDevices. Use dictation in a text field, then in a couple of minutes, put 
 your ear up to the speaker, and listen for a hiss. My speaker is located 
 down at the bottom right corner. If I use Siri via the home button after I 
 use dictation, the speaker will turn off after a minute. However, if I 
 forget to use Siri, my speaker stays on and my battery very quickly drains.
 
 I have not run the update, I am waiting a bit for some of the download 
 traffic to slow down a bit, besides, I have not received an alert on my 
 phone yet. :) After I run the update I will check to see if the speaker 
 problem persists.

If I don't double tap in the text field, the two finger double tap will play my

than the two finger double tap will not initiate the start of dictation but 
will play music. :)

iBooks with VO;iPhone reads punctuation, iPad doesn't;

does not read out the punctuation.  I have been   checking out all the settings 
but can’t find anything that mentions reading out punctuation or not.
I would like to use the  two apps but for fiction the punctuation is a  total 
distraction.
I don’t like to use the iPad because it is usually being used by my husband.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Would it make any difference to use different voices?  I have no idea how to 
switch voices but I am willing to try.

   Hello everyone. Recently, the Bible app was updated and accessibility
 was
 broken. When I open the Bible app I get the verse of the day. When I
 activate the Menu button to access the menu so that I can launch my
 reading
 plan the menu is inaccessible to VoiceOver. Here's the work around that I
 found.

   1. I double tap on the menu button.

   2.  I turn off Voiceover with the Tripple Click Home feature.

   3. I single tap on the lower right hand corner of the screen.

   4. I turn on Voiceover with the Tripple Click Home feature.

   My reading plan is launched. The developers actually made some
 improvements. First, if you use the Audio version, the app automatically
 speaks each reading. Then a dialog box opens with each reading checked.
 The
 dialog box shows progress and gives me the opportunity to share on
 Facebook
 and Twitter. I activate the Done button to close the dialog. As long as I
 don't close the app, my reading plan appears when I bring focus to the
 app.
 Now, for some of you savy influencers, how do we bring this to the
 attention
 of the developers and get them to fix it. How do we successfully play
 hide
 and seek when decision makers are it?



   Thanks so much.

  Get 50GB of iDrive iOS cloud storage for 99 
cents per year
by MacDailyNews  
  [cfsp key=adsense_336x280]Cloud-storage 
provider iDrive has extended this appealing deal to owners of iPhones, iPads, 
and iPod Touches, Rick Broida reports for CNET. You have to be a new iDrive 
customer, but otherwise the deal is exactly as good as it sounds: 50GB of cloud 
storage for an impossibly low 99 cents per year.

  When iDrive first told me about this, I was sure 
it meant 99 cents for the first year, then a more typical $50 to $100 each year 
after that. But a company rep told me in no uncertain terms: 'It will be the 
same [99 cents] a year from now. [This is not] a first-year discount or 
limited-time offer,' Broida reports. To get it, you need one of the 
aforementioned iOS devices on which to install the iDrive app and sign up for 
an account. (Never mind the in-app purchase options shown in the App Store; you 
should see the 99-cent deal once you swipe through the getting-started 
screens.)

  More info via Apple's iTunes App Store: iDrive 
(Online Backup) - Pro Softnet Corp

  Broida reports, By the way, although you need an 
iOS (or Android) device to take advantage of this offer, once you have your 
iDrive account, you can use it across all platforms: Windows, Windows Phone, 
Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.

We will maintain the service as long as it is necessary. We will also try to 
find better alternatives. In any case we will just keep our product as useful

Does the Voice Dream AP work with the kindle AP?

i have the kindle AP, but I have not used it.  I am not happy doing long

an alternative.

RE: Question About Voice Dream

2014-04-23 Thread Richard Turner
If you mean does Voice Dream read Kindle books, then no, it does not.
Kindle books can only be read by the Kindle app.
iBooks can only be read by iBooks,
Nook books, can only be read by the Nook app, etc.
If you have a Bookshare membership, you may find some books available that
are also Kindle books, then you could use the better voices in Voice Dream
to read the Bookshare copy.

HTH,
Richard

Help with ripped CD fragmenting in iTunes

2014-04-23 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Hi,

I have a CD of a musical entitled Once. I ripped it within iTunes. When I look 
for it in iTunes on my PC, only 4 of the 16 tracks are listed. The 4 listed 
tracks state the Album title and specify it is the Original Broadway Cast, but 
then refers to Various Artists. I'm guessing the problem is that the native cd 
tagging is such that there isn't a consistent Album Artist, with different 
tracks listing different performers. But, I can't find the other 12 tracks, 
even when I search for the album title, Once.

There wasn't an option before ripping that allowed me to check or modify the 
Album Artist, at least that I could find, or know how to find.

Can someone help and guide me in how to tackle this? I understand that somehow 
there is a way to check an album as a compilation, but first I need to find the 
other 12 tracks, put them in the right sequence, etc.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

Keith

On your PC, open itunes and find the Recently Added playlist. With any luck all 
the tracks will be listed from your cd. If so, you can highlight them all, Get 
Info and change the album title or artist etc for all tracks. Hope that will 
sort it!

to put in a password  But I haven't even used this app yet. So do I need to 
enter a password everytime I go to open the app? 

2. On the handyrec  recording app do I need to use a mic  when recording or 
not? But if so, what type of mic would I use with this app? Thanks.

RE: dictation

2014-04-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Steve,

A single finger double tap only works if Voiceover is focused on the Dictate
button. One of the small but convenient improvements in iOS 7 is that as
long as you are in edit mode a 2-finger double tap anywhere on the screen
will start and stop dictation. As Christina pointed out, you do have to be
in edit mode inside a text field otherwise the 2-finger double tap will do
what it's supposed to do otherwise and that is to start and stop playing
music or whatever was playing last.

Sieghard
