Re: Portrait and Landscape

By default locking the orientation is done via the side switch located on the 
right. You can change this behaviour under Settings. For what it's worth it can 
either lock or unlock orientation or mute/unmute the device.

Re: IOS 8.1 on IPhone 6

2014-10-27 Thread Feliciano G
Apple vis has a thread where they talk about the glitches on iOS 8.1. I would 
consider reviewing that and then determine whether you want to upgrade or 
not.if some of the tasks that are listed there and you use it,  you may want to 
hold off.

 I am sticking to 7. Normally I upgrade within the first week of a new release

 Am I wrong in this assumption? I think perhaps this
 version needs the higher processing capabilities of the newer IPhone.

Re: iPhone 5S vs. iphone 6

Sieghard, Kelly, Shawn and others,

Thank you for your comments.  I live in the UK so I don’t think that Apple Pay 
will be here any time soon.  What you have so far said is very balanced, and 
I’m reading all your comments with great attention.

 Hello Andrew and Shawn,
 
 Shawn, you made a good point which I forgot. The support for Apple Pay would 
 be a very compelling reason for me to get a 6 if I was living in the States. 
 But as you mentioned, Canada won't see Apple Pay for a while although it 
 would be my guess that Apple Pay will be in Canada before too long as our 
 financial and credit card systems are similar. I fully expect that I will 
 upgrade again next year, but with Apple Pay taken out of the equasion there 
 really isn't enough reason to upgrade from a 5S to a 6.
 As far as how much of a compelling reason Apple Pay is for you, Andrew, that 
 is entirely up to you. I am very intriqued by it and feel it is very well 
 thought out and implemented based on what I heard about it. It appears to be 
 an Apple product in the old way when Apple would not release half-baked stuff 
 as they sometimes have done in the last couple of years.

 Hi Andrew. I agree with Sieghard about getting a 5S. I know with myself when 
 I got my 5S, I was only getting $60 for my 4S. I wanted a 32 GB 5S but I 
 settled for 16 because it was only $100 so I only had to pay about $40 for it 
 plus $15 for the sim card from Telus.
 
 As for processors, I'm not a power user as well. I don't use Safari because I 
 have a Mac to surf the internet with. So the A7 chip is good enough for me. 
 As long as I can use Alex on my phone, that's good enough for me. Yeah sure, 
 the A8 chip on the 6 and 6 Plus sounds good, but like Sieghard said, I don't 
 think there would be any improvements to speed. Also, we in Canada can't use 
 Apple Pay, which is one of the biggest features of the 6 so there's really no 
 point. I'll worry about upgrading when iOS can no longer be upgraded on my 5S.

2014-10-27 Thread RobH.
Ok, since you are UK, as I am,  you might want to check out 3/Three's deal, 
I'm told it is very good.  Check out GiffGaff as a PAIG.  Check out the 2nd 
hand buy/sell lists over here, like Recycle-it and Thebargainstore on 
yahoogroups.co.uk.
also,  since we are both in the market, we have found an eBay supplier of 
Class A refurbs for a little over £300, including 1 yr warrantee.  They're 
still £549 off Apple direct.

I'll consult with 'er downstairs,  sorry, 'er in bed;  about the eBay 
supplier.

Finally, www.preloved.com is a fee-free ad service and found a good few 
there too, though an entirely different risk aspect to trading blind on a 
site like that.  eBay does at least offer some safeguards.  So does paying 
by PayPal if you use this latter suggestion.

£300/350 is about the target price for a basic 5S in good condition.

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread RobH.
Depends where you are and how luggable you want it.  Mine was from a 
specialist supplier in the UK, and it is full size with function keys lined 
up in blocks of 4 along the top, just like a real Windows keyboard.  The 
gutters between keyboard sections are there too.  Can't remember name of it 
now,  just where I bought it from and quite cheaply considering.

Otherwise, you'll get directed to the Amazon basic BT keyboard which is 
generally accepted as plenty good enough and very good for the price.

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread RobH.
Ahaa, now I don't like the Apple one,  for the reason originally given by 
the questioner; too smooth and flat to maintain accurate location for long. 
Ok, we know it can be done, some are better at it than others;  I'm one of 
the others, so get things more tactile, clunky even, it suits my fingers; 
that's what my computing career was brought up on.

OT: does anyone remember PC keyboards that had just 10 function keys to the 
left of the main letter keyboard; none of those along the top.

Or:  the Sun Spark keyboard that had function keys in both places, all along 
the top and down the side.  Specialised UNIX keys no doubt.

It’s really too bad that your interpretation of the list rules somehow 
affords you special permission to post such unkind remarks about Sieghard on 
this or any list. There are polite ways to disagree with another list 
members opinion without being snarky. I’m really not interested in your 
pointless attacks on list members whose opinions differ from yours. If you 
thought what you wrote about Sieghard made you look smart and oh so witty, 
it really came across as very shallow and nasty.



I can’t tell you the number of times Sieghard has sent me information off 
list that has been accurate and very helpful. Additionally, I can’t tell you 
how many times he has offered to work with people off the list to solve

This is from the developers of Fleksy:




What about the Apple third-party keyboard warning message when allowing Full 
Access?



When you allow full access, you will encounter a warning message stating 
full access allows the developer to transmit anything you type, including 
things you have previously typed with this keyboard. This could include 
sensitive information such as your credit card number or street address. 
This alert appears whenever any third-party input method is allowed full 
access. Fleksy is designed NOT to receive or log such sensitive data.

Here’s how:

§  Fleksy can collect three types of data:

§  Crash Data, including crash logs, in an anonymous format.

§  Settings Data such as setting preferences, gesture usage, and number of 
words typed with Fleksy.

§  Language Modeling Data such as common phrases or words that you use when 
typing with Fleksy.

§  We never collect any type of data without your explicit permission.

§  Language Modeling Data collection is disabled by default for all our 
products, and is not enabled during the installation process.

§  We do not log data entered into password or credit card fields.

§  When a user voluntarily opts in to supply Language Modeling Data to us, 
we always encrypt it both for transmission and storage, and host it in third 
party hosting facilities with industry leading security infrastructure.

§  We do NOT link any Language Modeling Data with your name, phone number, 
email address, or any other personal identifier.

§  Language Modeling Data is only used in anonymous format to help improve 
Fleksy’s product and services. It is NOT sold, licensed or otherwise 
provided to third parties.

Hi Chuck and others,

I don't know if you get the same warning when you  install Fleksie, but on 
the last Today in iOS episode, Rob mentioned that when you install some 
third party keyboards a rather worrysome message is displayed. According to 
this message, you give the developer of these keyboards full access to 
anything that is typed on said keyboards and the warning for one popular 
keyboard called Swift Key includes this:
allows the developer of this keyboard to transmit anything you type…”

Interestingly enough the keyboards mentioned didn't even include Fleksie and 
I wonder how popular Fleksie really is. Here is the link to another article 
about this, but I certainly would not install a keyboard where I got such a 
message. I have an iPhone because I like how secure it is so then why would 
I allow some developer whom I don't know from a hole in the ground to have 
access to everything I might type on their keyboard including potentially 
credit card numbers and so on. I think maybe that is the reason why Apple 
defaults to their system keyboard for passwords and so on.


Re: Apple TV Amazon Prime Video

2014-10-27 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Hi,

The way that I tend to airPlay things is as follows:

1. Ensure Apple TV is powered on  connected to yoru network.
2. Open the control center on your iPhone.
3. Find the airPlay button, double tap then choose Apple TV.
4. Exit the control centre  play something in the instant video app.
The audio  video should appear on the Apple TV.

NB: some apps will have an airPlay button but obviously its location
will vary from app to app, hence why I use the control center method.
I haven't used instant video, but the above are generic instructions
that will almost certainly work.

Cheers,
Ben.

Re: third party keyboard

2014-10-27 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I think it pretty much already settled down. Let's hope every one else 
just uses the delete key and let's it die. Raul can't be monitoring the 
list every minute of every day, so everyone needs to be responsible and 
know when to let things go. Let me take my hat off to Sieghard who 
handled this personal attack so well. I only hoep I'm as gracious as he 
was when I get these attacks myself in the future.


BTW, this doesn't mean I agree with Sieghard and his views on Apple and 
security. I think this argument that Apple is just doing everything it 
can to make the device as secure as possible is a bit over stated. 
Devices can be made secure without locking them down. Locking them down 
is a cheap way to improve security. Apple also isn't a philanthropic 
organization. They're a company out to make a profit in a capitalistic 
market. IMHO, much of what gets attributed to them around security and 
ensuring the best customer experience also has a healthy dose of self 
interest and protecting their own products and revenue stream. I'm not 
knocking Apple for doing this, but it isn't always driven by selfless 
philanthropic motivations as some people seem to think.

I am really starting to like the braille input keyboard.  I am however having

For example, how does one keying an at sign in 6 dot braille?

Is there some help somewhere that gives the cords for all the characters?  I

 Shawn, you made a good point which I forgot. The support for Apple Pay

 although it would be my guess that Apple Pay will be in Canada before too 
 long as our financial and credit card systems are similar. I fully expect 
 that I will upgrade again next year, but with Apple Pay taken out of the 
 equasion there really isn't enough reason to upgrade from a 5S to a 6.
 As far as how much of a compelling reason Apple Pay is for you, Andrew, 
 that is entirely up to you. I am very intriqued by it and feel it is very 
 well thought out and implemented based on what I heard about it. It 
 appears to be an Apple product in the old way when Apple would not release 
 half-baked stuff as they sometimes have done in the last couple of years.

 Hi Andrew. I agree with Sieghard about getting a 5S. I know with myself 
 when I got my 5S, I was only getting $60 for my 4S. I wanted a 32 GB 5S 
 but I settled for 16 because it was only $100 so I only had to pay about 
 $40 for it plus $15 for the sim card from Telus.
 
 As for processors, I'm not a power user as well. I don't use Safari 
 because I have a Mac to surf the internet with. So the A7 chip is good 
 enough for me. As long as I can use Alex on my phone, that's good enough 
 for me. Yeah sure, the A8 chip on the 6 and 6 Plus sounds good, but like 
 Sieghard said, I don't think there would be any improvements to speed. 
 Also, we in Canada can't use Apple Pay, which is one of the biggest 
 features of the 6 so there's really no point. I'll worry about upgrading 
 when iOS can no longer be upgraded on my 5S.

Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Listers,

 

Maybe somebody has figured out a way to get this information, but I so far
have not figured out where to find it. Just to clarify, I am using iTunes 12
on a Windows 7 PC with Jaws, mostly using the Jaws 16 Public Beta). I used
to be able to go through my list of available app updates and by tabbing a
few times after selecting an app I was able to hear the What's New
information for the app. I would assume that this information is still
there, but Jaws appears not to read it. I tried to right click on the app
which does bring up a context menu which includes a Get Info button, but
this also does not seem to give me access to any of the app information. I
know I can easily read this using the App Store app on my iPhone, but I also
keep a lot of apps updated in iTunes which I don't have currently downloaded
to my phone and make it a habit to check what is new in these apps when I
update them in iTunes. If there is no way to get to this information I'll
write to Apple Accessibility about it and maybe also send a message to
Freedom Scientific since I am not sure if this would be something Apple
needs to fix or if it is something which needs to be fixed in Jaws.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Re: native braille input character cording

That depends on the code you use. In fact, the reason there's no reference on 
the phone is that it uses standard rules, so a book on UEB or grade 2 is what 
you want. For the at sign, use dot 4, then dot 1. This should be accurate for 
grade 2 or UEB.

Using dictation in emails

2014-10-27 Thread Sandratomkins
Hi,
Well, I have dated my for S2 8.1 a few days ago.I had been carefully monitoring 
this list in anticipation of bugs, but have been sadly disappointed with how 
badly the dictation function is working under the new I S.notice things are 
going wrong, perhaps, the worst one is that many of my words are being put 
together.for example, if I write the words at the end of a sentence and then 
begin the next sentence with the word it, The space is taken out and the editor 
sees what I have written as an Internet link.visually, I am told, this shows up 
as a highlighted link, but also when read out loud voice-over says link.it 
even reads this way when forwarded to A PC.Plus, when I was forwarding a 
message and then changed my mind, I hit the cancel button only to find that 
voice-over has registered that as hitting the send button and my message was 
sent.further, when I dictate, I do not get voice-over reading, nicely, my 
dictated text, but, rather, I get what little sounds noisy some words and I 
have no idea if I have been heard a right.I had thought that I had heard all 
the worst bugs and I waited to be sure that I could cope with them.however, 
nobody really mentioned these bugs, perhaps, it is my for S? But this phone was 
working perfectly and 7.12 prior to the update.to remind people, the for S is 
supported in this update.I don't have a computer, are use my phone all my 
communication needs and this is a serious problem for me!
All the best,

£300/350 is about the target price for a basic 5S in good condition.

Shawn, you made a good point which I forgot. The support for Apple Pay

although it would be my guess that Apple Pay will be in Canada before too
long as our financial and credit card systems are similar. I fully expect
that I will upgrade again next year, but with Apple Pay taken out of the
equasion there really isn't enough reason to upgrade from a 5S to a 6.
As far as how much of a compelling reason Apple Pay is for you, Andrew,
that is entirely up to you. I am very intriqued by it and feel it is very
well thought out and implemented based on what I heard about it. It
appears to be an Apple product in the old way when Apple would not release
half-baked stuff as they sometimes have done in the last couple of years.

Hi Andrew. I agree with Sieghard about getting a 5S. I know with myself
when I got my 5S, I was only getting $60 for my 4S. I wanted a 32 GB 5S
but I settled for 16 because it was only $100 so I only had to pay about
$40 for it plus $15 for the sim card from Telus.

As for processors, I'm not a power user as well. I don't use Safari
because I have a Mac to surf the internet with. So the A7 chip is good
enough for me. As long as I can use Alex on my phone, that's good enough
for me. Yeah sure, the A8 chip on the 6 and 6 Plus sounds good, but like
Sieghard said, I don't think there would be any improvements to speed.
Also, we in Canada can't use Apple Pay, which is one of the biggest
features of the 6 so there's really no point. I'll worry about upgrading
when iOS can no longer be upgraded on my 5S.

RE: Using dictation in emails

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Sandra,

I can't explain exactly why you are having such bad results, but one thing I
can tell you is that those little sounds are SIRI writing your text as you
dictate it. I have a 5S and apart from the much better responsiveness of
SIRI when dictating, I found no differences between iOS 7 and 8.

As for your text getting Sent when you tapped Cancel I can only assume that
maybe at the moment of your tap focus changed, I certainly have not ever
experienced anything getting sent or processed when I tap cancel.

There could of course be quite a difference in SIRI performance between
Ireland and Canada and there are so many other variables. Maybe turn SIRI
off and back on and also do a reboot of your phone to see if that will have
any positive effect.

Also, do you have any other keyboard languages installed? I have German
installed and every so often after writing something on the German keyboard
I forget to change it back to English and then when I dictate something all
I get is complete gibberish because changing keyboard languages/layouts also
causes dictation to work in that language. When I discovered this a couple
of years ago I was of course super happy because it makes it so easy to just
switch the keyboard to German and dictate in that language.

Accessibility of the Freading App for Public Library Books?

2014-10-27 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, folk,

I think I know the answer to this, but thought I'd ask, just in case. Has 
anyone used this app for reading Adobe DRM books for public library reading? 
The controls seem accessible, but the text is not. Is there a setting I can 
change, or is it a lost cause for the moment?

I'm in a book club, and have finally gotten signed up for Kindle unlimited. 
Fortunately, the book we're currently reading is in this Kindle program for no 
extra charge, so I ended up using that instead. I always look at Bard first, 
then public library, then Kindle and iBooks.

Thanks,
Teresa

 Subject: Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12
 
 Hello Listers,
  
 Maybe somebody has figured out a way to get this information, but I so far 
 have not figured out where to find it. Just to clarify, I am using iTunes 12 
 on a Windows 7 PC with Jaws, mostly using the Jaws 16 Public Beta). I used to 
 be able to go through my list of available app updates and by tabbing a few 
 times after selecting an app I was able to hear the What's New information 
 for the app. I would assume that this information is still there, but Jaws 
 appears not to read it. I tried to right click on the app which does bring up 
 a context menu which includes a Get Info button, but this also does not seem 
 to give me access to any of the app information. I know I can easily read 
 this using the App Store app on my iPhone, but I also keep a lot of apps 
 updated in iTunes which I don't have currently downloaded to my phone and 
 make it a habit to check what is new in these apps when I update them in 
 iTunes. If there is no way to get to this information I'll write to Apple 
 Accessibility about it and maybe also send a message to Freedom Scientific 
 since I am not sure if this would be something Apple needs to fix or if it is 
 something which needs to be fixed in Jaws.
  
  
 Regards,
 Sieghard

Hi,

I can bring up my iPhone in iTunes 12, but the apps radio button doesn't
show up. I don't understand the screen that appears when I click the more
button.

I need to get a file from my pc into Voice Dream reader. Has anyone created
an audio tutorial on how to do this with iTunes 12 and a pc?

If not, are there written instructions anywhere?

If not, I know this sort of thing can take time, but I'd really appreciate
clearly written instructions.

Thanks

I feel you owe Sieghard an apology.   I have been on this list for a long time

concerned Sieghard has help me numerous times on and off list.  He has also 
assisted many other people on this list.  So I don’t know where you get off 
putting him down.  He might have his own opinion just like you do and that is 
his right just as it is yours. I know you won’t apologyes as I can tell by your

Chuck,

 

I posted about a warning regarding third-party keyboards I heard about on the 
Today in iOS Podcast. If you feel that what I said was misguided and that I was 
attempting to misinform people than that is of course your right and the same 
applies to how you feel about my messages in general.

I did not make any sort of claim that Fleksie was doing what the warning is 
warning people about, I merely provided the information and a link to an 
article where people can read about this and that giving any developer this 
level of access I something I personally worry about.

 

If you felt I was writing to you privately then maybe you can let me know which 
screenreader and mail program you are using and I will offer some advice on how 
you can easily check whether a message comes from the list or from an 
individual and also how you can make sure your reply goes to where you intend 
it to go. I am, however, glad that you have mastered the use of the delete key 
and I would in fact recommend you set up a filter so that any messages which 
come from me go straight to your Trash mailbox and that way you won’t ever have 
to worry about them.

When you allow full access, you will encounter a warning message stating full

Here’s how:

§  Fleksy can collect three types of data:

§  Crash Data, including crash logs, in an anonymous format.

§  Settings Data such as setting preferences, gesture usage, and number of

§  Language Modeling Data such as common phrases or words that you use when

RE: Sounds Question

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Allen,

 

This has been brought up in connection with selecting a default sound for 
emails where the behavior is the same. This is obviously a bug Apple needs to 
fix, but for now I found you can work around this by not trying to swipe to the 
list of tones. Just double tap on the button where you select the sound for 
text messages, then touch the screen somewhere in the middle so that focus is 
placed into the list of tones. For me at least this allows me to then swipe 
left and right and find the tone I want and I was even able to swipe left all 
the way to the Back button and then forward again without getting kicked out. 
It appears you only get kicked out when you immediately start swiping right. 
Let us know if that worked.

Sieghard

RE: Deleting apps with VoiceOver

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Marissa,

The process is the same as always, you double tap and hold on an app until
it says :Moving followed by the app name. Then you double tap again on the
app and you will be prompted to delete the app.
Now, having said this, there is a limitation to this in iOS 8 which is a
known bug and which has been discussed at various times since the launch of
iOS 8. Most people can't move or delete apps which are in the last row of
any home screen, the row just above the dock. Some people can move/delete
some of the apps others none of them. On my 5S for example I have KNFB
Reader, Whats App, Skype and Voice Dream Reader in the row above the dock
and they are in that order from left to right. For some reason I can move
the 2 apps from the right just fine, Voice Dream and Skype, but I can't do
anything with KNFB Reader or Whats App, double tapping and holding on either
one of them does absolutely nothing. If, however, I double tap and hold on a
different app, both KNFB Reader and Whats App will also go into edit mode
and while I still can't move them, I can double tap them and the delete
confirmation comes up.
I would try and double tap and hold on a different app and then double tap
the one you want to delete. I am of course assuming that the app you want to
delete is in the last row on your home screen. If that is so you can also
move other apps into that row in order to force the app you want to delete
up to another row or onto your second home screen. As long as the app is not
in the last row everything should behave as it always has.


Regards,
Sieghard

I am betting the signal in Queens NY must be awful as the few times I have

Hi,

If you have a good connection, LTE or 4G should work fine. I've downloaded

watched a Space Shuttle lift-off. Of course, if you have a weak signal, 
all bets are off with any device. Even if it's an LTE signal, if it's only 
one bar, it may very well not work. But with a reasonable signal, you 
should be fine. My guess is that you simply didn't have a very good signal 
for some reason. Too bad, though - it sounds like a very unpleasant

Then I asked her to FaceTime and go figure even though I clicked answer 
FaceTime would not work and I was on LED. I thought FaceTime worked on 
LED now? Regardless of FaceTime the fact that apps take forever to load 
when not on Wifi and I am on ATT are others having an awful experience 
when not on Wifi? Eventually someone walked by and picked up my stuffs 
neither my foot sweep of the area nor my guide dog found anything.


Thanks,

RE: confused on how to put documents into an app using a pc running iTunes 12

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Michael,

 

OK, hopefully I can explain this well. The way this works in iTunes 12 is
that by default you have Music, Movies and More on your main screen. I might
be missing something here, but I already customized this so I can't remember
if there was anything else. Anyhow, tab to More and press enter, then arrow
down and you'll find other things in a list view such as Audio Books, Books,
Apps, Podcasts etc.

When you get to Apps you could just press enter and then tab and you'll find
your app updates and so on. If you want Apps to be a radio button like Music
and so on on the main screen, go to the very end of that list view where you
find Edit. Now tab until you find a button also called Edit and activate
it.

Next tab and you'll first go across a bunch of read only fields, then you
will hear checkboxes which are either checked or unchecked and after each
checkbox you hear the corresponding item, e.g. music, movies, TV shows, apps
etc. Just remember that you need to check the checkbox before the item, so
if you want Apps to be on your main screen, tab until you hear Apps, then
Back tab once and check that checkbox. When you have checked or unchecked
all you want, tab until you find the Done button and activate it.

 

I find it easiest to always start at the same point of reference and a very
convenient place for that is the search box in iTunes which you can always
go to by pressing Control+F.

From the search box 2 tabs will put you on the Music radio button and any
other items you checked will appear after that.

 

Also keep in mind that the shortcut keys for going directly to your various
libraries in iTunes 12 work even better than in iTunes 11. The shortcuts are
Control+Number keys in the number row from 1 to 0, they are as follows:

 

Control+1: Music

Control+2: Movies

Control+3: TV Shows

Control+4: Podcasts

Control+5: iTunes U

Control+6: Books

Control+7: Apps

Control+8: Tones

Control+9: Internet Radio, maybe this is iTunes Radio in countries where
it's available, can't say because it's not available in Canada

Control+0: iTunes Store

 

As far as transferring books to Voice Dream, once you are in apps it should
be the same as before, tab to the file sharing area, select Voice Dream from
the list of available apps and go from there.

 

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

Hi,

I can bring up my iPhone in iTunes 12, but the apps radio button doesn't

I need to get a file from my pc into Voice Dream reader. Has anyone created

If not, are there written instructions anywhere?

If not, I know this sort of thing can take time, but I'd really appreciate

I need advice about RSS reader, please help.

2014-10-27 Thread Mária Orovčíková

Hello list,
I think I have asked before about all this, but some of my e-mails have 
been lost, so I'll try again.
I have iphone and Ipad and I am looking for RSS reader with the 
following Functions:
1. The function to delete read or seen feeds. I mean I want to be able 
to delete my feeds after reading them so it won't fill up my phone.
The ideal situation would be not to have RSS feeds stored on my devices, 
but in case it is not possible, the deleting function would be fantastic.

2. The function to kind of synchronize my  either read ur unread RSS feeds.
To explain it better, Let's say, for example, I will have the same RSS 
app installed on the Iphone and on the Ipad. When I open RSS app and 
read an article on the Iphone and delete it, then I open RSS app on the 
Ipad all the same article I have read on the phone would be deleted and 
won't appear as a new feed.
Something very similar as ifyou're using e-mails and imap on a few 
devices and when you delete an e-mail on one device, it would 
synchronize on every single device.

3. And the last function is to be notified of new feeds.
I am not sure if something like that is possible on I-devices. But wen I 
was using RSS reader or better to say RSS plugin with Miranda software 
for computer, I was notified of new RSS feed.
I have Lire and Newsify installed. Does either of these have the 
functions mentioned above? If so, could anyone, please, give me 
step-by-step instructions how to set it up?

Thank you for your help in advance.
With kind regards
Maria

RE: native braille input character cording

2014-10-27 Thread Dean Martineau
Using US English braille for my encoding, I can also generate an at sign by 
hitting dot 4 twice.  In this encoding, you can press dot 4 and another 
character, and that character will yield a modified value.  The unmodified 
value for many of the characters are accent marks.  The modified values include 
many familiar computer braille characters and some numbers if they weren’t 
already available.  From memory, here is what happens when I press dot 4 
followed by these characters:

 

156: colon

146: per cent

346: plus

12456: right bracket

126: less than

345: greater than

25: colon

6: comma

 

There are others, I’m not being systematic here.

That depends on the code you use. In fact, the reason there's no reference on 
the phone is that it uses standard rules, so a book on UEB or grade 2 is what 
you want. For the at sign, use dot 4, then dot 1. This should be accurate for 
grade 2 or UEB.

Interestingly enough the keyboards mentioned didn't even include
Fleksie and I wonder how popular Fleksie really is. Here is the link
to another article about this, but I certainly would not install a
keyboard where I got such a message. I have an iPhone because I like
how secure it is so then why would I allow some developer whom I
don't know from a hole in the ground to have access to everything I
might type on their keyboard including potentially credit card
numbers and so on. I think maybe that is the reason why Apple
defaults to their system keyboard for passwords and so on.

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

Hi, I personally recommend the Logitech K811 keyboard. You can pair it 
with up to 3 devices and it's a good solid keyboard with a physical 
switch for the power on/off. The keys are spaced right and are 
comfortable to type on. It runs for around $80 or less if you find a 
deal. I got mine from Amazon.

 Subject: Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12
 
 Hello Listers,
  
 Maybe somebody has figured out a way to get this information, but I so far 
 have not figured out where to find it. Just to clarify, I am using iTunes 12 
 on a Windows 7 PC with Jaws, mostly using the Jaws 16 Public Beta). I used 
 to be able to go through my list of available app updates and by tabbing a 
 few times after selecting an app I was able to hear the What's New 
 information for the app. I would assume that this information is still 
 there, but Jaws appears not to read it. I tried to right click on the app 
 which does bring up a context menu which includes a Get Info button, but 
 this also does not seem to give me access to any of the app information. I 
 know I can easily read this using the App Store app on my iPhone, but I also 
 keep a lot of apps updated in iTunes which I don't have currently downloaded 
 to my phone and make it a habit to check what is new in these apps when I 
 update them in iTunes. If there is no way to get to this information I'll 
 write to Apple Accessibility about it and maybe also send a message to 
 Freedom Scientific since I am not sure if this would be something Apple 
 needs to fix or if it is something which needs to be fixed in Jaws.
  
  
 Regards,
 Sieghard

RE: suggestions for Bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,

I am using a Sharkk with two K's Backlit keyboard. The light is more or less
not essential for me but that is in the name since Amazon has several models
and that is the better of them or so I am told. I know of several others who
like theirs as well as I do. It is about halfway between the size of a full
sized keyboard and one of those little miniature keyboards that were all the
rage a year ago, Laughs! I couldn't even figure out how to hit the home keys
on those little mini keyboards and I have pretty long, skinny fingers. This
one has no numeric keypad but I suppose neither does the big Apple keyboard
that I now have paired with the Apple TV. And this Sharkk backlit BT
keyboard will also work with windows if I so choose.

I forget the cost but I think was about $40 or less. 

Hope that helps,

Merv

Turn off the unit. Press together the answer/vol down and voice command

This key combination is a bit tricky but it works.

Subject: Re: all incoming mailbox op Iphone

I think the term is all inboxes.  in the list of mailboxes, the top level,
there is an edit button, so use it.  In there is a list of things that show
on the main list of inboxes, and whatever. All inboxes in an item you can
double tap on to select,  or unselect if you don't want it.  I just
unselected mine and selected All Unread instead.

So all is not lost;  double tap Done when satisfied.

Hi folks
A friend of mine that is also blind made a terrible mistake on his
iphone he thinks. He deleted his mailbox called incoming mail and is
now asking himselves whether it is possible to get it back or reset
all mailboxes so that this option is back present on his iphone. He
has already switched it onn and off, deleted all acounts, setting them
up again, but the option all incoming post remains disappearing.
Is there anything he can do to get it back?
Regards
Davy

Re: Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12

One of the beauties of iTunes, though, is to see if there are any updates and 
what changes have been made without having to do an extra step of going to the 
web using another source.

Subject: Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12


Hello Listers,

Maybe somebody has figured out a way to get this information, but I so 
far have not figured out where to find it. Just to clarify, I am using iTunes 
12 on a Windows 7 PC with Jaws, mostly using the Jaws 16 Public Beta). I used 
to be able to go through my list of available app updates and by tabbing a few 
times after selecting an app I was able to hear the What's New information for 
the app. I would assume that this information is still there, but Jaws appears 
not to read it. I tried to right click on the app which does bring up a context 
menu which includes a Get Info button, but this also does not seem to give me 
access to any of the app information. I know I can easily read this using the 
App Store app on my iPhone, but I also keep a lot of apps updated in iTunes 
which I don't have currently downloaded to my phone and make it a habit to 
check what is new in these apps when I update them in iTunes. If there is no 
way to get to this information I'll write to Apple Accessibility about it and 
maybe also send a message to Freedom Scientific since I am not sure if this 
would be something Apple needs to fix or if it is something which needs to be 
fixed in Jaws.


Regards,
Sieghard

Re: Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12

2014-10-27 Thread Colin Matthews
Hi!
OK I posted to let Sieghard know that not getting the whats new info from the 
App window is the same on the Mac 12 iTunes so not a Jaws problem!
And he was asking about checking Apps on the Computer that are not currently on 
his iPhone!

 Subject: Finding the What's New info for an app in iTunes 12
 
 Hello Listers,
 Maybe somebody has figured out a way to get this information, but I so far 
 have not figured out where to find it. Just to clarify, I am using iTunes 
 12 on a Windows 7 PC with Jaws, mostly using the Jaws 16 Public Beta). I 
 used to be able to go through my list of available app updates and by 
 tabbing a few times after selecting an app I was able to hear the What's 
 New information for the app. I would assume that this information is still 
 there, but Jaws appears not to read it. I tried to right click on the app 
 which does bring up a context menu which includes a Get Info button, but 
 this also does not seem to give me access to any of the app information. I 
 know I can easily read this using the App Store app on my iPhone, but I 
 also keep a lot of apps updated in iTunes which I don't have currently 
 downloaded to my phone and make it a habit to check what is new in these 
 apps when I update them in iTunes. If there is no way to get to this 
 information I'll write to Apple Accessibility about it and maybe also send 
 a message to Freedom Scientific since I am not sure if this would be 
 something Apple needs to fix or if it is something which needs to be fixed 
 in Jaws.
 Regards,
 Sieghard

Re: iPhone 5S vs. iphone 6

2014-10-27 Thread Billy Maynard

hi,

This openion ight be late but, I went from a 4S to a 6+ just because I don't 
upgrade often and I wanted the best phone at hte time so that it'd last as 
long as possable before ios would leave it behind.  I would also agree 
withthe storage  issue. I bought the  124 gig moddle of the 6+ just because 
I'd rahter have too much storage than not enough.At the end of hte day 
it's all in what you can efford.

Subject: Re: iPhone 5S vs. iphone 6


Although if money wasn't a factor I would choose the 6 over the 5s for
the reasons already stated, one factor which I feel is even more
important is the amount of memory on the phone. I would suggest that
it is more important over the long run to have at least a 32gb phone
than it is to have a 6. Although we have Apple Pay in the U.s. many of
us can't use it because our banks don't support it yet. I will also
say that even though people say the difference in the battery life
between the 5s and 6 is not that large, I find it to be quite
significant. The difference in price between the two phone should only
be $100 which I know can be a lot of money. The bottom line is that
you need to decide which of the feature changes you care about.

Hello Andrew and Shawn,

Shawn, you made a good point which I forgot. The support for Apple Pay 
would
be a very compelling reason for me to get a 6 if I was living in the 
States.

But as you mentioned, Canada won't see Apple Pay for a while although it
would be my guess that Apple Pay will be in Canada before too long as our
financial and credit card systems are similar. I fully expect that I will
upgrade again next year, but with Apple Pay taken out of the equasion 
there

really isn't enough reason to upgrade from a 5S to a 6.
As far as how much of a compelling reason Apple Pay is for you, Andrew, 
that

is entirely up to you. I am very intriqued by it and feel it is very well
thought out and implemented based on what I heard about it. It appears to 
be

an Apple product in the old way when Apple would not release half-baked
stuff as they sometimes have done in the last couple of years.

Hi Andrew. I agree with Sieghard about getting a 5S. I know with myself 
when

I got my 5S, I was only getting $60 for my 4S. I wanted a 32 GB 5S but I
settled for 16 because it was only $100 so I only had to pay about $40 for
it plus $15 for the sim card from Telus.

As for processors, I'm not a power user as well. I don't use Safari 
because

I have a Mac to surf the internet with. So the A7 chip is good enough for
me. As long as I can use Alex on my phone, that's good enough for me. Yeah
sure, the A8 chip on the 6 and 6 Plus sounds good, but like Sieghard said, 
I

don't think there would be any improvements to speed. Also, we in Canada
can't use Apple Pay, which is one of the biggest features of the 6 so
there's really no point. I'll worry about upgrading when iOS can no longer
be upgraded on my 5S.

Yes, I'm looking at the matter from the point of view of someone who will
have to take a small loan to get a new iPhone.  So I'd like to know
whether I would notice a significant difference in performance between
iPhone 5S and iPhone 6?  Many of you on the list have been using iPhone
for a variety of tasks in difficult situations.  Please let me have your

possible for me to use Alex.  I guess it has more other opportunities,
advantages, I mean.  On the other hand, iPhone 6 offers the A8 chip and
maybe just maybe a different future possibility?  Please let me hear your

some rather big Focus 14 blue issues with iOS 8.1

2014-10-27 Thread Joe Quinn
Has anyone noticed this issue when using the focus 14 blue ever since upgrading 
to iOS 8: when, for instance writing this email, when you’re done writing, or 
maybe even sometimes in the middle of writing, anything really, the braille 
display will get stuck and totally lose focus, so much so that you can’t even 
move back using the panning buttons. i tried un-pairing and re-pairing the 
focus display, turning on and off bluetooth, and while sometimes this works, 
this last time it  didn’t work. also, for those in the US, when reading a 
Braille file in the BARD book, using the R key for going to the reading window, 
writes an R into the document, obviously not writing in the app, but making any 
navigation keys, N for next, P for previous ETC., unusable. Has  anyone else 
had  these issues, and if so, is there a workaround for them? if not though, 
what do I do to remedy  this? it’s making my use of the focus 14 a right chore, 
more trouble than it’s worth, and all the other cliches. thanks for any help!

RE: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
No, neither the K810 nor the K811 has a NumPad. They are basically the same 
size as the Apple Wireless keyboard, but as Raul pointed out, the physical 
slider switch to turn them on or off beats the button on the Apple Wireless 
keyboard hands down and the ability to pair it with, for example, an iPhone, 
iPad or iPod Touch and an Apple TV rocks. The K810 is basically the same 
keyboard, but it is made for Windows, e.g. it has a Windows Key and Alt Key 
instead of Command and Options. I accidently had ordered the K810 at first, but 
since I was strictly looking for a keyboard for my iPhone and Apple TV I ended 
up sending it back (I had also bought it via Amazon) and ordered the K811 
instead. Another advantage is the fact that it has a built-in rechargeable 
battery and it uses a standard micro USB cable to charge. In the case of a 
keyboard which uses very little power I think that's nicer than dealing with 2 
AA Batteries as is the case with the apple Wireless keyboard. When it comes to 
more expensive, premium keyboards I would definitely recommend the K811 
although my experience has only been with the Apple Wireless keyboard and the 
Logitech K811.

Re: suggestions for bluetooth keyboard needed

2014-10-27 Thread Joseph FreeTech
It is safe to conclude that number pads are not included in this keyboard 
form factor. It is rare to find a laptop with an additional numpad, so it is 
probably rare if not impossible to find a keyboard meant to be portable to 
come with a numpad. Remember, the goal here is small, so adding a number pad 
will increase the size of a portable keyboard, which goes against the 
mindset of manufacturing such a device.

 Hi, I personally recommend the Logitech K811 keyboard. You can pair it 
 with up to 3 devices and it's a good solid keyboard with a physical 
 switch for the power on/off. The keys are spaced right and are 
 comfortable to type on. It runs for around $80 or less if you find a 
 deal. I got mine from Amazon.

 Hi,
 I know I have seen discussion on this but haven't until now needed a BT
 keyboard so have not paid much attention.
 I need a good keyboard.  My wife has one but the keys are so flat and
 close together that I can't even really use it.
 Is there one that has good pressure feedback and where the keys are not
 too close together?
 thanks.

entering my e-mail address on a web site

2014-10-27 Thread 'Candy Lowe' via VIPhone
Hello everyone, I have a question and I hope I can explain it correctly.  When 
I go to enter my e-mail address on some web sites, if I am using a blue tooth 
keyboard, I can't type.  I just hear the knocking noise.  Then if I try to use 
the braille input, same thing.  If I use the regular apple keyboard on the 
phone, I am able to type.  Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Re: entering my e-mail address on a web site

2014-10-27 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, Candy,

When you use an external keyboard, there's a mode called QuickNav. This is the 
mode that lets you use the arrow keys on the keyboard to work the rotor. There 
is a bug in iOS8 that requires you to turn this mode off once you enter an edit 
field. You do this by pressing both side-arrow keys on the hardware keyboard 
until you hear QuickNav off. At this point, you can begin typing.

HtH,
Teresa
