Mini, Multi-tasking gestures?

2014-10-28 Thread RobH!
I've not used the multi-tasking gestures on the Mini before.
This is a 1G model running 7.1.2.

So, I turned on these gestures so I could do the 4fingers things.  The one
that works and like is 4finger swipe up for the task switcher, been having
trouble sometimes with the Home button double tap.  But,  although I hear a
suitable sound for task-switching, can't find an effect, that is, I don't
switch tasks.

What am I missing or doing wrong?

That's it, thanks.

RobH.

Re: Mini, Multi-tasking gestures?

2014-10-28 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Hi Rob,

I have noticed a similarly inconsistent behaviour with multi-tasking gestures 
on iPad mini.  The four finger swipe up the screen should bring up app switcher 
but it doesn’t for me.  The four finger swipe to right or left should change 
applications if they are running but it doesn’t.  The four finger pinch 
sometimes works to close an application but other times it doesn’t.  I wonder 
whether others have experienced something like this too.

iPhone 6 Case Recommendations?

2014-10-28 Thread Todd W
Hi All,

I'm looking for recommendations on a case for the iPhone 6.  The main
requirement is that it have a belt clip.  I've used Otterbox Defenders in
the past and like them a lot.  I'm hoping to find an option that's not
quite as bulky as the Defender.  It's a shame to have such a sleek phone in
a case that makes it look like a brick. :)

Thanks,

todd

Labeling photos app

2014-10-28 Thread Ann
Good morning, I am totally blind and was wondering if there's an application 
out there where I can label my photos. I am getting into these buy sell trade 
groups on Facebook and need to take several photographs.
I sure do miss the old days of iOS, where it photographed had a number such as 
001, and the like at least then, I could have my cited assistant tell me that 
001 for example was stereo headphones so on and so forth. You can't do that 
with this new thing they got now.
I can't see the photos, so I don't know what I'm posting so if anyone out there 
knows of an app that could help me label my photos that way I can post my 
pictures independently. Thanks in advance.

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

2014-10-28 Thread Dan Beaver
Hi,

I haven't seen this on web sites but I have seen it while using braille 
input in the app store.

If I open the search field and type something in there and then click the 
search button it works fine.  the problem occurs when I then go back to the 
search field and try to type something new.  I switch to the braille input 
keyboard and it seems to be working except that when I check the field VO 
says what I entered first.

I asked my wife to look at it and she says the search field shows my new 
entry but VO still says my original search entry.

I have been trying to figure out more details so I could report this to 
Apple Accessibility.

If anyone else can figure it out I'd sure appreciate it.

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

Subject: I need advice about RSS reader, please help.

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: Labeling photos app

2014-10-28 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Hi,

Other people may have a better solution, but I tend to connect the
phone to a computer after each photo, copy said photo onto the
computer  rename it based on its contents. Alternatively you could
make a note of when each photo was taken  what it was of, then when
transferring them you could inspect the date  time that they were
created, matching up each photo to your notes.

Cheers,
Ben.

 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!

I know I've done this, just did it out of frustration at keep seeing my

Hi,

I haven't seen this on web sites but I have seen it while using braille
input in the app store.

If I open the search field and type something in there and then click the
search button it works fine.  the problem occurs when I then go back to the
search field and try to type something new.  I switch to the braille input
keyboard and it seems to be working except that when I check the field VO
says what I entered first.

I asked my wife to look at it and she says the search field shows my new
entry but VO still says my original search entry.

I have been trying to figure out more details so I could report this to
Apple Accessibility.

If anyone else can figure it out I'd sure appreciate it.

 Subject: I need advice about RSS reader, please help.

 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: iPhone 6 Case Recommendations?

2014-10-28 Thread RobH.
Personally, I wouldn't compromise, I'd just keep, or get my regular Otterbox 
and be done with it.  Remember, a phone that big is going to look slimmer 
anyway.
I've never been a fashion conscious individual since young, so take 
pragmatic rather than aesthetic views on these things.

Hi All,

I'm looking for recommendations on a case for the iPhone 6.  The main
requirement is that it have a belt clip.  I've used Otterbox Defenders in
the past and like them a lot.  I'm hoping to find an option that's not
quite as bulky as the Defender.  It's a shame to have such a sleek phone in
a case that makes it look like a brick. :)

Yes - they're ordered by date  time taken so it's not really a huge
issue if it's just one or two photos. I do quite a bit of eBay selling
so I have to put them onto a computer anyway; I tend to do them one at
a time though so I can be absolutely certain that I'm putting a
MacBook on one of my listings  not a glass of homebrew.

my timer say for an hour.  But for some reason it has not been working.  It
always has been working just fine except for the past few night it has not
been shutting BARD off.  Any ideas why this is not working?  I am still

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

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

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

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

 

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

Re: SETTING SLEEP TIMER FOR BARD

2014-10-28 Thread Richard Turner
There is no sleep timer in the BARD app.
But, you can use the clock timer  instead of having a sound when the timer 
ends, if you go to the end of the options you will find, stop playing.
Double tap on that, then I think there is a set button then the start button 
and after whatever time you set, anything playing should stop.
HTH,
Richard

Re: Labeling photos app

2014-10-28 Thread Donna
Hi

Tap Tap See may be able to do what you need. I haven't figured out a way to 
label the pictures using the app. The app does have access to your camera roll 
and can describe what the picture is. For example if you take a picture of a 
pair of headphones Tap Tap See would return a description of headphones or if 
the brand can be seen the description may say Sony headphones. Within the app 
you have the option of posting the photo to facebook, sending the photo by text 
message or email and copying the photo   

Camfind can also identify photos in your camera roll, but I haven't figured out 
a way to label the photos and there isn't an option to share the photos.

RE: Labeling photos app

2014-10-28 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Donna,

I think it would be good if a lot of people would write to Apple either using 
www.apple.com/feedback or the accessibil...@apple.com email address to request 
that Apple would implement photo labelling either as a feature for all users or 
an accessibility feature. Not being able to effectively label photos in iOS is 
definitely a big deal for blind users, but you even find threads where sighted 
users ask for this. I wonder how difficult it would be for Apple to add a 
feature where you could maybe double tap on a photo and a menu would pop up 
with options like Delete, Move and Label or something like that. If it was an 
accessibility feature it would maybe be done via the rotor, e.g. swipe down or 
up to get to options like Label, Delete, Move etc. Then if you double tap on 
label a simple text box would come up similar to the custom label feature which 
would allow you to add a text label but without changing the actual file name 
of the picture and it's order. 

There are a bunch of apps in the app store which allow you to add labels to 
pictures, but I think most are meant for sighted people who want to add 
artistic tapes, stamps and widges to photos which may or may not contain a text 
label. A Google search for Labelling photos in iOS 8 gives you a number of 
results and it seems that an app called labelbox is well regarded and has 
already been updated to take advantage of iOS 8 extensions. It's a large app, 
over 100 Mb, and it's free with in-app purchases. I did download it, but so far 
have not been able to get anywhere with it. I guess apps like this which are 
heavily focused on visual effects might be more difficult to make accessible 
and of course many developers may not even think about that. I wrote to the 
developer of Labelbox and mentioned the potential usefulness of his app for 
blind iOS users and if I receive a reply I'll post it here.
The main problem with I think all of these apps is that you have to open the 
photo in order to see the description and I think what a blind user really 
would appreciate is a label which would be read along with the date the picture 
was taken when you go through your listing of pictures.

Another app which comes to mind is Photovoice. This has been discussed before 
and I believe there might even be something about it on Applevis. This app 
allows you to record a voice label in your own voice, but once again you do 
have to open the photo in order to play this label. It basically converts your 
picture to a small video file in order to allow for the voice label. Here is 
the app store link:

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photovoice/id492150568?mt=8

Another app which does basically the same thing is called SpokenPhoto, but I 
can't say anything regarding whether it is accessible or not. It is, however, a 
free app whereas Photovoice is 99 Cents. Photovoice also has not been updated 
since January 2013 which is almost 2 years. SpokenPhoto was updated in April 
2014 which is a lot more recent. Here is the link for SpokenPhoto:

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/spokenphoto-give-your-photos/id491723663?mt=8


Good luck,
Sieghard

RE: Stuck in an Edit Screen for Text Messages

2014-10-28 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Sherry,

 

That is normal behavior. You double tap on a person/conversation and a window 
opens with your message history and at the bottom is a text box. Double tap on 
the text box and it goes into edit mode and the keyboard comes up so you can 
send another message in that conversation.

 

I don’t generally keep conversations which go back over weeks or months, but I 
believe old messages may be hidden after they reach a certain age.

 

If you have upgraded to iOS 8, you might also want to go to Settings and 
Messages and check how long your text messages are kept before they are 
automatically deleted. This is a new feature and you can set this to 30 days, 1 
year or Forever.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Re: some rather big Focus 14 blue issues with iOS 8.1

2014-10-28 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I haven't seen the focus issues, but I can help with typing the commands in 
bARD Mobile. The problem is that Quick Nav is turned on when you install iOS 8 
or 8.1. There is a braille display command that is supposed to toggle Quick Nav 
- Space with Q. Unfortunately, it currently doesn't work. If you have access to 
a Bluetooth keyboard, connect it, and press the left and right arrow keys 
together to turn Quick Nav off. Then the BARD Mobile commands will work 
normally.

Best,
Anna

 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: Stuck in an Edit Screen for Text Messages

2014-10-28 Thread RobH.
I'm sure I got frustrated with this once, but having fiddled on 2 different 
4S's running 7.1.2 and 8.1;  and can't reproduce the problem.  Whichever way 
I go back up to the thread or sender list,  going back into any has closed 
the edit field until I double tap it again with a view to replying.

I should try the iPad,  I think that might have a different slant on things 
like this.

Re: Stuck in an Edit Screen for Text Messages

2014-10-28 Thread RobH.
Ok, this is precisely it. A safeguard in case you really need to write that 
person and got half a message you don't want to lose.

So, I did as said before - Get VO on to the text field, crank rotor round to 
Edit, flick up/down to select all and double tap,  flick up/down some more 
to cut and double tap;  then back out of that sender's thread and the text 
field will close and stay closed until you double tap it to edit in it 
again.

Re: Labeling photos app

2014-10-28 Thread Richard Turner
I have not been following this thread, but I have had no trouble labeling 
photos or videos since iOS 7.1.2
In iOS 8.1, my previous labels are there and creating new ones works just like 
before.
I use the standard gesture of a two finger double-tap and hold and enter text 
in the field and or delete what is there and enter something new and then 
double tapping on the done button in the lower right corner.

 Hi Donna,
 
 I think it would be good if a lot of people would write to Apple either using 
 www.apple.com/feedback or the accessibil...@apple.com email address to 
 request that Apple would implement photo labelling either as a feature for 
 all users or an accessibility feature. Not being able to effectively label 
 photos in iOS is definitely a big deal for blind users, but you even find 
 threads where sighted users ask for this. I wonder how difficult it would be 
 for Apple to add a feature where you could maybe double tap on a photo and a 
 menu would pop up with options like Delete, Move and Label or something like 
 that. If it was an accessibility feature it would maybe be done via the 
 rotor, e.g. swipe down or up to get to options like Label, Delete, Move etc. 
 Then if you double tap on label a simple text box would come up similar to 
 the custom label feature which would allow you to add a text label but 
 without changing the actual file name of the picture and it's order. 
 
 There are a bunch of apps in the app store which allow you to add labels to 
 pictures, but I think most are meant for sighted people who want to add 
 artistic tapes, stamps and widges to photos which may or may not contain a 
 text label. A Google search for Labelling photos in iOS 8 gives you a 
 number of results and it seems that an app called labelbox is well regarded 
 and has already been updated to take advantage of iOS 8 extensions. It's a 
 large app, over 100 Mb, and it's free with in-app purchases. I did download 
 it, but so far have not been able to get anywhere with it. I guess apps like 
 this which are heavily focused on visual effects might be more difficult to 
 make accessible and of course many developers may not even think about that. 
 I wrote to the developer of Labelbox and mentioned the potential usefulness 
 of his app for blind iOS users and if I receive a reply I'll post it here.
 The main problem with I think all of these apps is that you have to open the 
 photo in order to see the description and I think what a blind user really 
 would appreciate is a label which would be read along with the date the 
 picture was taken when you go through your listing of pictures.
 
 Another app which comes to mind is Photovoice. This has been discussed before 
 and I believe there might even be something about it on Applevis. This app 
 allows you to record a voice label in your own voice, but once again you do 
 have to open the photo in order to play this label. It basically converts 
 your picture to a small video file in order to allow for the voice label.. 
 Here is the app store link:

cases for the 6+

2014-10-28 Thread Billy Maynard

hi,
When I got my 6+ on the 26th of this month,  The verizon store said otter 
box had not created a case for the 6+ yet.  I'm eagerly awaiting the release 
of it because if for no other reason it helped  from getting stuff in the 
phone ports.  Pluss the protection is good for when I want to trade it in. 
If anyone knows of an otterbox like case for the 6+ I'd appreciate it. 
currently my phone just has a sheet of tempered glass over the touch screen. 
I'm not sure if it was sticky on the back or how it was applied. I'm sure 
i'll have to remove it to put it in a more protective case.


Thanks,
Billy Maynard

Wowed by WhisperSync in Kindle App

2014-10-28 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, guys,

I'm floored by this feature that many of you might have used, but some might 
not. Nonetheless, I have to relate my experience with it.

So here I was, reading a book in the Kindle app with my Braille disply. I use 
the Kindle Unlimited servie, which lets you rent books for a monthly fee. If a 
book has an audio version, you can also download it for no extra charge. For 
individual books, I think the charge for the audio is a few dollars more.

I decided to take a bath but still wanted to continue reading the book. On a 
lark, I downloaded the auio to play through my small portable speakers. I was a 
little grumbly about having to find my place, but something in the back of my 
mind told me I wouldn't have to.

Well, the audio resumed where I'd left off in Braille. I was truly amazed. Then 
when I was ready to switch back to text, there it was.

I hope more books are availble with this option as time goes on. I love it. I 
mostly read in Braille, but I like to read with audio occasionally when I'm 
puttering around the house.
Teresa

Re: Wowed by WhisperSync in Kindle App

2014-10-28 Thread Cheryl Homiak
Yes, I like this also and I think I posted once about it but in a different 
vein. You can also use your braille display and audio both together. Even when 
pages didn't turn automatically in braille, it still wasn't bad. I haven't 
tried it since the upgrade to iOS8 but it should work even better now. I don't 
often need both braille and audio together but sometimes it's fun.

Cheryl

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper
thrown in the trash!
Then God gave me a new heart and life:
His joy for my despairing tears!
And now, every day:
This I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord
never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
(Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV)

Re: cases for the 6+

If you don't mind putting the case on yourself, you could check the
Otterbox site at:

I've tried to get my cases in store and have them put them on, but
this is also an option. They may have more cases online than they do
in the stores.

Good luck,

Re: iPhone 6 Case Recommendations?

2014-10-28 Thread Wayne Merritt
This is correct. I have an iPhone 6 in an Otterbox Defender case,
without the belt clip, and though the case is big the phone is also a
little bigger than the 5. I don't think it is overly bulky. The case
on the 6 is not as thick as it was on the 5. You can always get one,
try it out, and return it if it doesn't work. Or, see if you can look
at one at the store to get an idea of how it would work.

Re: Downcast question

2014-10-28 Thread Wayne Merritt
If you go to the More tab, then settings, you can set the default
(global) behavior for all podcasts, under the new episodes action
heading to either stream or download. If you're listening to a
specific podcast you can make settings to that one podcast. I have
done this for specific podcasts that I want to be able to hear
anytime, but most of my podcasts are set to stream. Also, if you find
a single episode of a podcast, you can do the double tap and hold
gesture and bring up a short menu of choices, including to download or
stream that episode. The wording may be convert to, I'm not exactly
sure.

Re: Stuck in an Edit Screen for Text Messages

2014-10-28 Thread Christopher Chaltain
In addition to what was said below, even when the virtual keyboard is 
up, I can still go back and review my previous exchange of text 
messages. If I start from a recent message displayed on the screen, I 
can swipe left and go back through the list of previous messages in 
reverse chronological order. Note that using the various page advancing 
gestures didn't have any effect and just exploring the screen or swiping 
right from the top only got me to a few messages that were actually 
displayed on the screen. Like I said, I had to swipe left from a message 
on the screen to scroll back through previous messages.

Re: I need advice about RSS reader, please help.

2014-10-28 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I'm not sure I follow the attached message. There's a free version and a 
paid version of Feeddler. InoReader is free as far as I know. I think 
the Old Reader is also free, but the number of feeds you can follow may 
be limited until you pay a small fee.


Back in the day, when Google Reader was till around, you could subscribe 
to whole groups of RSS feeds at once, such as news, sports, life 
hacking, Linux/Ubuntu and so on. I got started with RSS feeds by 
subscribing to a handful of these collections. Over the years, I've 
dropped feeds I wasn't interested in and rearranged the feeds I still 
follow. I'm not sure if any of the other RSS feed services do anything 
similar or not.

the same article I have read on the phone would be deleted and won't

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.

Before you guys get real excited about the Otterbox Defender for the iPhone
6, please read some of the reviews at Amazon.  A lot of opinions are not so
complimentary.  Among some of the criticisms is that the volume control is
difficult to use, and the gap between the iPhone 6 and the built in screen
is such that activating apps is quite awkward.  But please, don't take my

currently my phone just has a sheet of tempered glass over the touch screen.

I'm not sure if it was sticky on the back or how it was applied. I'm sure

It's free for less than 100 feeds.

Re: cases for the 6+

2014-10-28 Thread Wayne Merritt
I will say that the volume controls buttons on the iPhone 6 Otterbox
Defender case have taken a bit of getting used to, more than the
iPhone 5. In my humble opinion, the 5 Otterbox case was easier to use
for the volume and for plugging in the phone to charge. Things have
gradually gotten easier for me over the month I've had my phone and
case, and they will hopefully continue to get better. However, getting
a good firm and hard press on the volume buttons or on the power/wake
button does take more doing with the iPhone 6 case, and it sounds like
perhaps for the 6 Plus case too. Those with dexterity issues or
trouble gripping things may have trouble. If you do struggle with
gripping, I would encourage you to take a look at one and see if you
can try it before buying.

iOS 8.1 and iTunes 11.x, Anyone?

2014-10-28 Thread M. Taylor
Hello,

Has anyone attempted to attach/sync an iOS 8.1 device to a computer running
iTunes 11, successfully?  

Until I purchase an iPhone 6 Plus, I have decided to keep my 5 S at 7.12.
Because of this, I see no reason to update my primary Windows 7 computer, to
which I sync my 5 S, to iTunes 12.  

However, on my newer Windows computer, along with my MacBook Pro, I have
updated to iTunes 12, and must say that I am getting used to it, slowly.  

I could not find any info on the web whether or not anyone has been
successful in using iTunes 11 with iOS 8.

Thank you for any feedback on this.

Mark

RE: iOS 8.1 and iTunes 11.x, Anyone?

2014-10-28 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Mark,

Shouldn't be a problem. I have been running iOS 8 since June and throughout the 
Beta cycle as well as until the release of iTunes 12 I synced and backed up to 
iTunes 11. I am 99% certain I synced and backed up after I upgraded to iOS 8.1 
and before I upgraded to iTunes 12 which I only did 2 or 3 days ago. I also ran 
iOS 8.1 Beta since early October so I definitely would have synced and done 
encrypted backups since I never do a major update without first syncing and 
backing up.

No, this is an iOS 8 feature. All you have to do is go to Settings, General, 
Accessibility and Voiceover. Double tap on the Rotor settings, locate the 
braille option and double tap on it to select it. Now when you are in an edit 
field you can turn the rotor to braille and it should work.

?Re: cases for the 6+

2014-10-28 Thread Robin Frost

Hi,
Sadly I can confirm that which you've reported.  My defender for the 6 plus 
was received today and will begin its return trip tomorrow. the screen 
protector has a springy feel to it I.E. it is not flush with the front face 
of the phone thus making interacting with the phone quite a chore.  While I 
have seen this on occasion before with these built in screen protectors and 
have sometimes been able to fix it with some maneuvering or worst case 
scenario a swap out of the case for an exchanged one in this instance due to 
such limited availability and vast reporting of this issue by users from all 
across the board I think at least for the 6 Plus era of phone use Otterbox 
and I will sadly be parting ways.
This leads me to another case related question. For those who have chosen 
through the years to use open face cases have you used an adhesive type 
screen protector which affixes to the phone's screen?  If so which ones and 
why?  If not why not.

thanks as always for enlightenment.
Robin (who's phone is currently happily residing in the genuine leather 
Apple case.)

RE: cases for the 6+

2014-10-28 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Robin,

I can see how many people like to put a substantial case around their phones, 
but as long as there is good protection around the sides and the case has a 
pronounced lip which stick up above the glass of the screen I really think 
having a integrated, relatively thick screen protector is not necessary unless 
you work in construction or another job where your phone really might be 
exposed to serious abuse. The Gorilla glass Apple uses really is quite tough 
and doesn't scratch that easily. Just my opinion, of course.

Sieghard

Re: can I use braille typing on my iPhone 5 or not

2014-10-28 Thread Alex Hall
Just to add to this, the braille input option is nearly always one rotor turn 
to the right. That is, it doesn't stay in one place, like characters or 
headings. Instead, it keeps moving, so that at almost any time it is available, 
one clockwise turn of the rotor will activate it. No need to move it around in 
your rotor settings, or hunt for it by turning the rotor left.

 No, this is an iOS 8 feature. All you have to do is go to Settings, General, 
 Accessibility and Voiceover. Double tap on the Rotor settings, locate the 
 braille option and double tap on it to select it. Now when you are in an edit 
 field you can turn the rotor to braille and it should work.

 Subject: can I use braille typing on my iPhone 5 or not
 
 Hi I just upgraded my iPhone 5 to IOS 8.1 and I would like to know.
 If I can use the braille writing for writing text messages and all.
 Just like on the iPhone or do I have to get A iPhone 5 s or an iPhone 6 to 
 have that work?
 If I can use the braille way of writing on my iPhone how do I activate that 
 future on my phone?
