If answering phone calls is more important to you, then I would suggest a Bluetooth ear peace such as the Plantronics Voyager Legend. You can still listen to good quality audio books, mp3 music etc and when a phone call comes in, the music gets paused and you can take your phone call. Assuming of course your device is an iPhone. For an iPod there are very good ear phones in almost all price ranges from around 20 dollars on up to several hundred dollars. HTH Regards, Alan Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your parents?

Eden On 11/18/2014 8:06 AM, Sieghard Weitzel wrote: Hi Eden, You'll get mixed answers here because ear buds or headsets are one of these things which are a very personal item. Some people hate the Apple Ear pods whereas I like them a lot. There is of course a difference when it comes to what you want to use them for. If you want a high-end music listening experience then no ear buds will live up to a $200 or $300 full headset with full ear cups. But for making phone calls, listening to spoken audio or GPS information, I find that the Apple Ear pods work best for me. I have also heard people saying they don't like them because they are too big for their ears and don't stay in and once again that is not a problem for me. In fact, if I put them in correctly I can turn my head to the side and shake it like a dog and they won't come out. I also like the fact that I can just put in the right side a bit which gives me access to the remote control for picking up phone calls, playing/pausing audio or for use with Blindsquare and they block out very little external sound which is good when I am walking and have to listen to traffic. A lot of higher-end ear buds have foam to block out as much sound from the outside as possible so you can hear better whatever it is you are listening to, but of course for most blind people that is not very desirable.

Re: How to add music using I tunes 12.
Hi Terri, When you explore the screen in itunes 12, just to the right of itunes store radio button, there’s a popup button. It will say different things depending what you set when you activate it. So go ahead and click on it with vo+spacebar. You will hear the familiar popup window sound. In the popup you will find a table, Interact with it. In this table you choose how to view your music. The first row is “songs”. If you choose it, and leave the popup window. You will see that the popup button now says songs. Move right and you should see your music browser and the table of all your songs.

RE: Adding audio books
Hi Raul, The way iTired handled this was that you could select from 3 or 4 different notification sounds to let you know the sleep timer was about to run out. They were all very subtle and you could set the volume to be no louder than the book you are listening to. The sounds were things like a drip sound, a rain sound, a light bonk sound and so on. They really would not wake you up again and you could set them to start let's say 10 seconds before the time would be up. Then if you were still listening all you had to do is press the volume up or down button once and the timer would reset itself to your 5 or 8 minutes or whatever time you set it at. Then 10 seconds before it ran out again you would hear that subtle sound again and so on. I am a very light sleeper and it never woke me again, sometimes I sort of heard it as I was drifting off and I'd just let it go.

Hi Johnna, You can forward a message from your message list/inbox by swiping up or down with one finger until you get to the More option. Then double tap and things like Reply, Forward and so on will pop up in a small menu. If you open the message you can double tap on the Reply button at the bottom, just to the right of Delete which is right above the home button.

Re: Online banking and iOS app support
Hi. I've been using the Chase mobile app for over three years now and haven't had any trouble with it at all. In addition to the usual stuff like checking balances, paying bills online and transferring funds from one account to another, it will let you scan and deposit checks. Since I'm total I've always been a little leery of trying that option out myself, but as I think about it now, I wonder if it might be feasible at some time in the future to scan a check using an app like TextGrabber or KNFB Reader, save the check image, then import it into a banking app, as opposed to using the native scanning function in the banking app itself. I wouldn't want to run into hassles with scanning a check and attempting a deposit without enough feedback to indicate that I took a good shot of the check.

VoiceOver and the Tidal Music Service App
Hello, everyone. I have just begun to play with the iOS app for Tidal (note the spelling), a music service new to the U.S. that boasts truly high-fidelity listening. So far, the app seems pretty VoiceOver-friendly although I haven't figured out the lay-out of the site yet. My awkwardness may be due to my lack of familiarity with music services rather than to any app design flaw. Has anyone tried this app? There are no reviews on AppleVis. Can anyone tell us of any potential pitfalls for the new user and suggest ways of conquering them? By way of introduction, Tidal is based in Oslo and is available on a variety of platforms. However, the only Windows browser its web player supports at this time is Google Chrome. Unlike Deezer, another high-fidelity service, Tidal has not yet formed alliances with any of the leading manufacturers of wireless speakers, such as Sonos or Bose. A monthly subscription is on the steep side: $20, but Tidal offers a free trial. Craig -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

I've used several banks which give you the ability to scan checks. I haven't seen one which lets you import the checks. I have also not had good luck with scanning myself. I have not tried using the scan stand though. I find the apps are very finicky with this feature. They have to be able to recognize the info on the checks.

RE: Online banking and iOS app support
Yes, I’m familiar with these traditional banks and their apps. One thing to keep in mind with USBank is that they charge you 50 cents for each check you deposit mobiley. I just find the nickel and diming the brick and mortar banks to be off-putting. Off hand, I don’t recall the last time I had to physically go into a bank about an issue. This is why my interest in an online bank alternative. They’re all going to more or less do the same thing. I was just curious as to the iOS accessibility with their apps since they’re not going to be as big as the more well-known banks.

I only use it for checking our Visa card, but I suspect all the other features are equally accessible. The Bank of America app is completely accessible. You can take a picture of a check and deposit it, but if you have no vision, you have to make sure and figure out which is the front and back and whether it is upside down or not. I’ve not heard much about Wells Fargo’s app, but since you have an account with them, you probably should check it out. I know nothing about the various online banking companies.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Davy, All gone is a touch optimistic. Apart from the two issues you mentioned, some people still can’t clear notifications and the button still says “Confirm Clear Section” where it should just say “Clear Section” and then go to “Confirm clear section” once you double tap it. Also, if you go to Settings, Sounds and go into where you change your default ringtone or text tone, you are still kicked back to the home screen if you start swiping right and once you get onto the vibration picker. There is an easy work-around for this which is not to swipe, but to first touch the middle of the screen and then swipe, but it’s still a bug. The search field in the App Store still shows whatever you searched for even if you clear the field with “Clear all” and even though the field visually is empty if you double tap Clear All twice Voiceover will read your last entered text. The keypad tones still disappear a while after my last reboot of the phone, once again, not a big deal, but a minor bug.

I only own one of these speakers, so I seldom use the iPhone app. The large indented button on the top center of the speaker is power, the small raised button in front of that is pair. The back of the speaker has 2 large buttons, that I had a difficult time at first identifying. One has a plus sign on it, the other has a minus sign, these are volume buttons. The speaker feels cool, sort of rubbery, and the package is impressive. It comes in a big plastic tube, that may be handy down the line.

Re: 8.11 bugs
I had an equally bizzarre one earlier, on a 4S, didn't try it with the other yet. In messages, sending a message, it failed. I got a send failure button, and a line saying not delivered. So far, so good; but if I was flicking right to go down these prompts, I couldn't get to or past the not delivered message. I could get to it from the bottom flicking left and working up the list, but once I try flicking to go down, it stalled on this same line every time. This seems completely senseless, but could get annoying and maybe serious as a navigation isssue.

Apart from the two issues you mentioned, some people still can’t clear notifications and the button still says “Confirm Clear Section” where it should just say “Clear Section” and then go to “Confirm clear section” once you double tap it. Also, if you go to Settings, Sounds and go into where you change your default ringtone or text tone, you are still kicked back to the home screen if you start swiping right and once you get onto the vibration picker. There is an easy work-around for this which is not to swipe, but to first touch the middle of the screen and then swipe, but it’s still a bug. The search field in the App Store still shows whatever you searched for even if you clear the field with “Clear all” and even though the field visually is empty if you double tap Clear All twice Voiceover will read your last entered text.

Re: Is Safari bug fixed when going back a page?
Penny I have been playing around with the bug. It is not always the case that pushing the back button or doing the scrub gesture, results in a unstable behaviour. Everytime I tried to get out a radio stream with the back button or gesture I got the problem reproduced but switching back from one normal site to another often occurs without any inconveniences. But when the bug occurs, it makes no sense to touch the status bar or whereever on the screen out of the safari area. But I also have good news: when putting voiceover off, touching the status bar and put it on again, the problem was solved and I could read the page on which I had landed after the back button was pressed.

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Sieghard I hear so many people complaining about a bug in safari that you can nolonger navigate page per page with a three finger swipe up or down. Sorry but I cannot reproduce this, on most sites I can navigate down to the last page with these gestures. This mail with the very conprehensive list of small inconveniences helped me a lot. Indeed the lock screen notification bug is still not there but not constant; sometimes messages are spoken sometimes not. Regards Davy From: Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 5:20 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released Hi Davy, All gone is a touch optimistic. Apart from the two issues you mentioned, some people still can’t clear notifications and the button still says “Confirm Clear Section” where it should just say “Clear Section” and then go to “Confirm clear section” once you double tap it. Also, if you go to Settings, Sounds and go into where you change your default ringtone or text tone, you are still kicked back to the home screen if you start swiping right and once you get onto the vibration picker. There is an easy work-around for this which is not to swipe, but to first touch the middle of the screen and then swipe, but it’s still a bug. The search field in the App Store still shows whatever you searched for even if you clear the field with “Clear all” and even though the field visually is empty if you double tap Clear All twice Voiceover will read your last entered text. The keypad tones still disappear a while after my last reboot of the phone, once again, not a big deal, but a minor bug.

Re: Status of braille support in 8.1.1.
Hi, I use a Focus 40 Blue Classic and a REfreshaBraille with my 5S running 8.1.1, and both displays work. yOu'll love the auto-panning feature when reading eBooks; when you get to the bottom of one screen, the phone switches automatically to the next. There's a Find command, Space with F, that works on web pages and in apps like Read2Go. The only down side is that Quick Nav is turned on by default when you install 8.1.1, and the braille display command that's meant to toggle it, Space with Q, doesn't work. So if you use BARD Mobile to read braille books, you need to use a Bluetooth keyboard to turn off Quick Nav if you want to use the letter commands built into the app, such as S for Search. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with braille support. Best, Anna On Nov 19, 2014, at 1:59 PM, Kimber Gardner kimbersinbox1...@gmail.com wrote: My apologies for that.

Re: Status of braille support in 8.1.1.
I use my Focus40 Blu to take notes both on an iPhone5 and an iPod Touch 5th Generation. With 8.1.1, it still takes a few seconds for the braille characters to be entered into the device after typing them on the braille display's Perkins style keyboard. Some people claim to have had luck playing with the auto translate feature, but I still haven't found any reliable way of doing this. So for now, I'm not happy about braille entry from an external braille display in IOS 8.1.1. Suggestions appreciated. Thanks Daniel Den 19-11-2014 kl. 21:14 skrev Woody Anna Dresner: Hi, I use a Focus 40 Blue Classic and a REfreshaBraille with my 5S running 8.1.1, and both displays work. yOu'll love the auto-panning feature when reading eBooks; when you get to the bottom of one screen, the phone switches automatically to the next. There's a Find command, Space with F, that works on web pages and in apps like Read2Go. The only down side is that Quick Nav is turned on by default when you install 8.1.1, and the braille display command that's meant to toggle it, Space with Q, doesn't work.

Is sonos recommended for listening to audio books?
Hi there. Today i’ve looked at a sonos package and i know just about what i want in terms of equipment. Now i wonder: is it possible to play audio books through the system? If so, can it remember where i left off and pick up from there?How would i set it up so that i don’t get music tracks in the middle of an audio book, or should i just forget that idea and continue using my Victor Stream and Strratos for books and stuff? /Krister -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: Adding audio books
David Pondered: but why go to all that trouble And Victor Replies: Because it's free. Not everyone has the funds with which to purchase Voice Dream Reader. Granted, DropBox is free, but the native music player does so much more than DropBox.

I have chosen to use a third party app to play audio books because I frequently found audio books that had the attributes changed and played through the music player wouldn’t always play in the correct order. I found that I had to use something like audio book binder or builder or mp3 to iPod converter to make the audio book in to a long file.

Re: Status of braille support in 8.1.1.
Okay. I decided to turn on my Apex and pair it with my iPhone 6 with 8.1. I was able to use this a couple weeks ago, but now I'm having some strange happenings. It pairs okay, but the thumb buttons will not move to the next or previous links, nor can I use the keystrokes to go to the bottom or the top of the home screen. If I touch the iPhone screen, the braille display on the Apex will change. So, I can't check out the keystrokes that would increase the navigation when one gets stuck in an edit field. I do remember adding an extra space at the end of my text, which did the trick. Also, I think the keystroke I was told by Humanware support is a 3-6 chord. [space), but I'm not 100% on that.

I prefer to use the column browser where you have 3 list views for Genre, Artist and Album in addition to your entire song list. I haven’t listened to Tom’s Podcast and don’t know if he has his iTunes set up this way, but if you want to use the column browser, do the following: 1. Open iTunes and press Control+F to go to the search field. 2. Now tab, for me the first tab takes me to “Search options”, after that I get some radio buttons which start with Music, then Movies, the TV Shows and so on. This may be slightly different for you since I can’t remember what is there by default. Anyhow, the last one of these radio buttons which should definitely be there is “More”. 3. If you tab past “More”, you should get another series of radio buttons which are as follows: My Music, Playlists and iTunes Store. If you have your iPhone connected, I think the iPhone is first after “More” and before “My Music”. 4. Now, this is where it counts, after you tab past the iTunes Store radio button, you land on a button which could say any of the following: Songs Albums Composers Genres If you activate the button and then tab once, you land in a list which should look just like what I wrote above and you can arrow up and down in that list. If you want the column browser, you have to make sure that you go to “Songs” and then press enter on it which means the button will say “Songs”. If you do this and you now tab again you will be in the Genres list view, then in the artist list view, then in the album list view and finally in the list view with all your songs. If you select a specific artist and tab to your songs list view, then you will only see the songs from the selected artist. Similarly, if you have, for example, 3 albums from one artist and you select that artist int he artist list view and then you select a specific album from that artist, then only the songs on that album show up when you get to your songs list view.

Re: Status of braille support in 8.1.1.
I myself am not really having problems, for the reasons i stated in my first message in the thread. But in iOS7 - my first - I liked the ability to quickly switch between braille modes from one to the other, which aplied to both input and output, as when reading back what I input in eight-dot braille. My reason for using eight-dot braille (as input mode) is that there are more signs available there (with 96 cells) than in six-dot (with 64 cells). Having automatic translation on may also slow things, as also will having reduced motion setting toggled on. - Original Message - From: Eden Kizer eden...@centurylink.net To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 10:08 PM Subject: Re: Status of braille support in 8.1.1.

I use my Focus40 Blu to take notes both on an iPhone5 and an iPod Touch 5th Generation. With 8.1.1, it still takes a few seconds for the braille characters to be entered into the device after typing them on the braille display's Perkins style keyboard. Some people claim to have had luck playing with the auto translate feature, but I still haven't found any reliable way of doing this. So for now, I'm not happy about braille entry from an external braille display in IOS 8.1.1. Suggestions appreciated. Thanks Daniel Den 19-11-2014 kl. 21:14 skrev Woody Anna Dresner: Hi, I use a Focus 40 Blue Classic and a REfreshaBraille with my 5S running 8.1.1, and both displays work. yOu'll love the auto-panning feature when reading eBooks; when you get to the bottom of one screen, the phone switches automatically to the next. There's a Find command, Space with F, that works on web pages and in apps like Read2Go. The only down side is that Quick Nav is turned on by default when you install 8.1.1, and the braille display command that's meant to toggle it, Space with Q, doesn't work. So if you use BARD Mobile to read braille books, you need to use a Bluetooth keyboard to turn off Quick Nav if you want to use the letter commands built into the app, such as S for Search. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with braille support. Best, Anna On Nov 19, 2014, at 1:59 PM, Kimber Gardner kimbersinbox1...@gmail.com wrote: My apologies for that.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
That is the most ridiculous solution I've ever heard. It's like taking a walk without your cane or guide dog! Apple had better get their act together soon or I'll be thinking of a switch. Way to expensive a device to be playing games like this with those of us who have accessibility needs. I think they are telling us to bite the dust. I have until the summer before I can do anything so we will see. I hope Steve comes to haunt them all big time because this would never happen with him in charge. What a terrible loss that was for us. I honestly haven't seen any big improvements in the IOS. Still have no caller ID and only half cooked notifications. And having the apps helter-skelter all over the place and not being able to organize them is really irritating. And Face Book is still behaving inconsistently too. I'll stop there. I really feel sorry for anyone who spent money recently on a new iPhone. At least mine worked well for more than a year until they shattered accessibility in iOS8 thus far.

ITUNES I'M JUST FAILING MISERABLY
I've started a new thread and am sorry to ask for help again, but I really just don't get it! Having ripped more music into ITunes, I decided (as I thought it might be easier) to stick with the Adding to Playlist method. I selected all tracks in several albums and added them to the playlist I'd previously used both on my IPod and phone, I thought. I managed to get all tracks onto the pod and then, knowing I'd added tracks to the playlist, tried to sync with my phone. No matter how hard I tried, it just didn't happen! I discovered I no longer appeared to have those new albums on the playlist, but have no idea why. I tried to add them again, but this time no go! Two hours later and I'm exhausted, extremely frustrated and just don't know how to go on with ITunes. I don't learn well from reading messages but do much better when being shown. As I have no one to show me step by step, I just don't know what to do now! If anyone knows why I had this problem and what to do with me now then please let me know - otherwise the phone and ITunes may not last very much longer with me...

RE: Is sonos recommended for listening to audio books?
Search the archives for this, but sonos don't have airplay support, but I've heard of some hooking up to listen to audio books, but sorry I forget the right terminology.

Hi there. Today i’ve looked at a sonos package and i know just about what i want in terms of equipment. Now i wonder: is it possible to play audio books through the system?

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Mary Ann and Pablo. It amazes me when I hear these comments like this from people, that they still use the device even though they just bad mouthed it. And it amazes me more when I hear Raul say that Pablo has made these same comments ever since iOS6, maybe even iOS 5. So the question I have to ask is if you've been feeling this way for a very long time, why haven't you switched to something that will meet your needs? Obviously Apple's doing something right if people keep coming back to them. And as for Apple playing with the disabled community, let me ask you this one important question. If in fact others feel the same way you do, do you really think that they would keep buying Apple products? I don't think so. So again, Apple must be doing something right.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Agreed completely. Unfortunately, on public lists, some folks have a tendency to go on emotional rants and amplify their personal grievances. As someone who works in the area of accessibility for Apple, I am often perplexed and puzzled by the assertions and assumptions I read. However, since I spent some 18 years as a vendor for blindness products and dealt with the same sorts of comments and assumptions, I'm not surprised. No company will ever please everyone and despite all of the positives and the access we are given, there is always someone who will find it more productive to emphasize what they perceive is the negatives. Apple is far from giving up on accessibility, and playing with the disabled is one of the most ridiculous things I've heard. It's the farthest thing from the truth. That is all I can and will say on that matter. If you think there is a better solution for you, I'll be willing to bet the farm that you will only find things to complain about that solution once you find out that the grass isn't greener. Been there and done that in my life more than once too. Take Care John D.

I prefer to use the column browser where you have 3 list views for Genre, Artist and Album in addition to your entire song list. I haven’t listened to Tom’s Podcast and don’t know if he has his iTunes set up this way, but if you want to use the column browser, do the following: 1. Open iTunes and press Control+F to go to the search field. 2. Now tab, for me the first tab takes me to “Search options”, after that I get some radio buttons which start with Music, then Movies, the TV Shows and so on. This may be slightly different for you since I can’t remember what is there by default. Anyhow, the last one of these radio buttons which should definitely be there is “More”. 3. If you tab past “More”, you should get another series of radio buttons which are as follows: My Music, Playlists and iTunes Store. If you have your iPhone connected, I think the iPhone is first after “More” and before “My Music”. 4. Now, this is where it counts, after you tab past the iTunes Store radio button, you land on a button which could say any of the following: Songs Albums Composers Genres If you activate the button and then tab once, you land in a list which should look just like what I wrote above and you can arrow up and down in that list. If you want the column browser, you have to make sure that you go to “Songs” and then press enter on it which means the button will say “Songs”. If you do this and you now tab again you will be in the Genres list view, then in the artist list view, then in the album list view and finally in the list view with all your songs. If you select a specific artist and tab to your songs list view, then you will only see the songs from the selected artist. Similarly, if you have, for example, 3 albums from one artist and you select that artist int he artist list view and then you select a specific album from that artist, then only the songs on that album show up when you get to your songs list view.

Ctrl 1 will take me to Music and ctrl F will place me on the search library field but then there is no resemblance to your results. When pressing f6, I go to a list of the songs in my library instead of the tree view you get. Is there some setting which is causing me to get a different result? do you think I should uninstall ITunes and re-install it?

Importing ring tones into IPhone6 with IOS8.1.1 using ITunes
Wondered how can I import any downloadable ring tones that used on my IPhone5 to be used on my IPhone6 using ITunes 12? Didn't find the ring tone on my new phone when restored things from a backup. Also how do you show the contacts folder on the home screen as haven't figured out how to do that. Thanks. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Yes, it is the most rediculous solution, and it is unnecessary, at least on my iPhone 5s running iOS 8.1.1, my girlfriend's iPhones 5 and 6+ running iOS 8.1.1, her ipad 2, 3, and 4, all running iOS 8.1 and 8.1.1 (not all are upgraded yet). Testing on all of these devices moves apps the way they have always moved, both on the home screen, and into and out from folders. Did you test for yourself before going off on your over-the-top absolutely rediculous rant at Apple I run my business primarily from my iPhone es using iOS 8.1.1. Before iOS 8, I needed to use a bluetooth braille display for the keyboard. Now, because I spent the time to learn the braille input, I no longer need to carry my braille display. I only use it now when I am proofreading important documents and presentations. Note: this email is being typed using braille input, and I am finally as fast as with the braille display keyboard. As for the moving and deleting apps in the last row, as reported by some users, I have not experienced this problem with any of the afor mentioned iDevices. This means, it is an intermentent bug, not a bug that effects all devices. The problem with such bugs is they are extremely difficult to find, and even more difficult to correct Oh, and a note about testing for bugs, if you do so whilst stressed (such as the state you were in when writing this email, you will very easily cause the appearance of such bugs just because of your emotional excitation. Try again later, after relaxing and taking many deep breaths. Then, try again the next day, at a different time of day, when you are under different conditions. Learning anything new is always stressful, and we always make mistakes. In fact, the greater the stress and anxiety, the worse the mistakes we make. Apple continues inovating. They continue adding new features to iOS, to VoiceOver, and to general accessibility. In six months, my girlfriend and I will be presenting a paper comparing Apple's latest with Android's latest regarding all of each system's accessibility options. So, I will start learning Android TalkBack this weekend. My girlfriend finds Apple's low vision features to be better overall than Android. That said, we will start testing with low vision students in January. So, contrary to your assertions, Steve Jobs would be quite happy with Apple and where it is heading.

It's like taking a walk without your cane or guide dog! Apple had better get their act together soon or I'll be thinking of a switch. Way to expensive a device to be playing games like this with those of us who have accessibility needs. I think they are telling us to bite the dust. I have until the summer before I can do anything so we will see. I hope Steve comes to haunt them all big time because this would never happen with him in charge. What a terrible loss that was for us. I honestly haven't seen any big improvements in the IOS. Still have no caller ID and only half cooked notifications. And having the apps helter-skelter all over the place and not being able to organize them is really irritating. And Face Book is still behaving inconsistently too. I'll stop there. I really feel sorry for anyone who spent money recently on a new iPhone. At least mine worked well for more than a year until they shattered accessibility in iOS8 thus far. Sorry this is a gripe post but I'm very frustrated. Mary Anne On 11/18/2014 12:55 PM, Jessica Dail wrote: Yes.
