RE: How do I adjust the Alarm volume on an iPhone 6?

2015-01-03 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Keith,

 

When you select your alarm tone it will play and while it is playing I believe 
you just use the volume up/down keys to adjust it to the level you like and it 
will then play at that volume when it goes off. 

I am not 100% certain this is so, but I’m pretty sure.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Subject: How do I adjust the Alarm volume on an iPhone 6?

 

Hi,

 

Running an iPhone 6 with 8.1.2.

 

Somehow the Alarm volume got set at a very, very high loudness level. I can’t 
seem to find a way to tone it down.

 

VoiceOver volume is moderate and readily adjustable. Siri volume is good. 
Ringer volume is set in settings to 35 % and adjusting volume with buttons is 
turned off.

 

How can I turn down the volume on my Alarm?

 

Thanks. Keith

It’s done, but hearing how you navigate - though lengthy in this description, 
might well save 

me some time swiping! I have to go back and see how to delete old calls and 
texts in batches. I just did it message by message and it was far too time 
consuming. I don’t understand why more than a few friends of mine leave all 
that stuff on their phones after listening or reading their messages. How many 
out there let the messages pile on even though they’ve already been dealt with? 
While I am here I might ask another question. I haven’t seem to find anything 
about getting alerts to calls through notifications. Other than from a sound or 
going into  messages can I be alerted to missed calls or texts through 
notifications? Deidre

Hi Deidre,

 

Turning off People in the app switcher is not difficult. You can get to the 
correct area in Settings by using SIRI and say “Open Mail Settings”. If you 
want to do it manually, double tap on Settings, then touch just above the home 
button and Voiceover should say something like “Do Not Disturb”, at least that 
is the last item on the first screen which is shown when Settings opens on my 
5S. You can then swipe right I think about 9 times to get to “Mail, Contacts, 
Calendars” or you can swipe up with 3 fingers from the bottom of the screen 
towards the top to scroll to page 2 of the Settings and then Mail Contacts 
Calendar is the second item from the bottom.

Anyhow, once you found this item, double tap on it.

 

Once Mail, Contacts, Calendar opens, you have a “Settings, back” button at the 
top left of the screen. This is exactly what it sounds like, a back button 
which will back you out of the settings for Mail, Contacts, Calendar back to 
the main settings screen.

If you swipe right (visually this is to the left of the back button underneath 
the status bar) is a heading which indicates where you are and Voiceover will 
read this as “Mail, Contacts, Calendar, heading”.

Right underneath if you drag your finger down the screen or if you swipe right 
again is another heading “Accounts, heading”.

This indicates that what comes next are your accounts. You may only have one 
setup here or maybe you don’t even have any email accounts setup yet in which 
case all you would have if you drag your finger down the screen more (or swipe 
right) are 2 buttons, one is “Add” which  you would use to add an email account 
and the other is read as “Fetch New Data” and it is followed by whatever 
setting is selected which by default I think is “Push”. Push means that email 
is “pushed” to your phone and if you set up an email account you’ll get emails 
immediately although I seem to remember something about how this does not work 
with gmail accounts (I could be wrong here). Anyhow, I won’t go into every 
setting here since your objective at this point is to turn off showing contacts 
in the app switcher.

 

What’s useful is to know that the entire settings area for Mail, Contacts, 
Calendar has 4 sections so to speak and each section has it’s heading which are:

 

Accounts

Mail

Contacts

Calendar

 

You can of course swipe right a lot or do a 3-finger swipe up on the screen to 
switch pages and then check at the bottom of the screen above the home button 
where you are, but if you have mastered using the rotor, then you can also turn 
the rotor to “headings” and swipe down with one finger to go from heading to 
heading. If I do that and start at the very top after going into the mail 
settings, I just have to swipe down 4 times: first swipe takes you to the 
“Mail, contacts, calendar heading, second swipe down takes you to the Accounts 
heading, third to Mail and the fourth to Contacts.

Once you are on the contacts heading, swipe right 3 times and you’ll find a 
button which Voiceover reads as “Show in app switcher. On”.

If you double tap on that button another screen opens and here you find 2 
separate buttons which you have to turn off if you want nothing to show in the 
app switcher.

These are “Phone Favorites” and “Recents”. I believe both are on by default and 
double tapping on each will toggle it to Off.

 

When you are done you can simply exit Settings by pressing the home button or 
you can double tap on the back button a couple of times to get back to the main 
settings screen or you can use the scrub gesture, a sort of zigzag swipe with 2 
fingers which is the same as double tapping on the back button.

Sieghard

That's a feature. Across the top of the App Switcher is a list of people with 
whom you communicate often, or have communicated recently. This way, your App 
Switcher shows not just recent apps, but recent people, making them easier to 
get to. So long as you don't touch the top of the screen, you need never use 
the feature if you don't want to. You can disable it in Settings, but I don't 
remember just how to do that.

 comes up it seems like I can't get to anything else like buttons to say done

Hi!
OK in settings under mail, contacts calendars in the contacts section you can 
choose to remove them from the app switcher or just have your favourites or 
recents up to you!

Re: Calendar question

2015-01-03 Thread Alex Hall
As Kimberly said, two events might be your best bet. You can, however, set them 
to repeat on the nth Thursday of a given month. Once you are in the custom 
repeat screen, choose the monthly repeat option. Next, choose every, and 
use the pickers to select which Thursday you want. Repeat this process for the 
other event, but on the other Thursday, and that should do it. Unfortunately, 
it looks like the each option, which offers a grid of all the days in the 
month, is not fully accessible in iOS8.1.2. I don't think that would do what 
you want, since it's based on the date and not the day of the week, but I 
thought I'd mention it.

RE: People icon?

2015-01-03 Thread Deidre Muccio
Colin, 
I found it in settings under mail. I turned it all off, favorites and
recents too! It's so easy to get to contacts I don't need to hear that stuff
in the app switcher. I cleared out all old missed calls and phone numbers
from the previous owner as well. If only I had set the phone back to the
factory defaults a month ago...

Hi!
OK in settings under mail, contacts calendars in the contacts section you
can choose to remove them from the app switcher or just have your favourites
or recents up to you!

anyone using the Jawbone UP app.?

2015-01-03 Thread Marie BAISEZ
The Jawbone UP 24 activity tracker was a lovely present from my 
daughter this year, setting up the device has not been too difficult 
without visual help but I'm struggling with the application, I can't 
understand the menu structure, some of the labelled icons do not mean 
much to me and do not give a clue about what they do and some of the 
graphs or values are not readable. I can't figure out how to log a meal 
or use the food search feature.
If anyone can help, please contact me off list as this might not be of 
general interest.

Thank you in advance and my best wishes for 2015 to you all.

1000 and OpenBook 9 to see which I will scan the book into. I also do have Fine 
Reader Pro on theMac, but I'm more familiar with the PC side for text-to-speech 
software and have extensive experience with them to push the software to their 
limits. What I don't like with these apps is the fact that when I save the file 
in a DOC or DOCX format, I lose some of the format of the document. I really 
need to scan a recipe with KNFB Reader. I only got to the beginning of the 
book, so no recipes were actually scanned with the app. I will not pull the 
book apart for a better scan of it.That I do know. Thanks again for all the

  Eileen,
  This is serendipitous as I have just started to scan some cookery

scanning recipes requires complete precision.even when using my stand scan pro 
I find there will be the odd error.these errors are so slight that if I was 
scanning fiction, for example, they wouldn't matter, but with recipes…so, I 
decided to bite the bullet and ask my partner to use his flat bed scanner and 
PC to create PDF files.he then can pass those files over to me and KN FB will 
digitise them.I should mention that I no longer have a PC or laptop or my own 
flat bed scanner. his PC/laptop are barred to me!neither does he have any 
screen readers on them.don't I sound pitiable?however, this was my choice: 
having decided that I would never, never pay the extortionate rates that the 
adaptive software was asking of me again.I know there are programs such as NVD 
a et cetera which I could now use, but when I decided to give up my laptop this 
wasn't really a viable option.Plus, I wanted to push my iPhone to its limit.so, 
in short, if you can obtain PDF files, you can use the KFFB reader to OCR them 
for you.I don't suppose your cookery books are for a Thermomix are they?this is 
my latest indulgence and has turned me from  an appalling cook into really 
quite a good one!unfortunately, all the recipe books for the Thermomix do not

*Subject:* RE: People icon?

Hi Deidre,

Turning off People in the app switcher is not difficult. You can get to
the correct area in Settings by using SIRI and say “Open Mail Settings”.
If you want to do it manually, double tap on Settings, then touch just
above the home button and Voiceover should say something like “Do Not
Disturb”, at least that is the last item on the first screen which is
shown when Settings opens on my 5S. You can then swipe right I think
about 9 times to get to “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” or you can swipe up
with 3 fingers from the bottom of the screen towards the top to scroll
to page 2 of the Settings and then Mail Contacts Calendar is the second
item from the bottom.

Anyhow, once you found this item, double tap on it.

Once Mail, Contacts, Calendar opens, you have a “Settings, back” button
at the top left of the screen. This is exactly what it sounds like, a
back button which will back you out of the settings for Mail, Contacts,
Calendar back to the main settings screen.

If you swipe right (visually this is to the left of the back button
underneath the status bar) is a heading which indicates where you are
and Voiceover will read this as “Mail, Contacts, Calendar, heading”.

Right underneath if you drag your finger down the screen or if you swipe
right again is another heading “Accounts, heading”.

This indicates that what comes next are your accounts. You may only have
one setup here or maybe you don’t even have any email accounts setup yet
in which case all you would have if you drag your finger down the screen
more (or swipe right) are 2 buttons, one is “Add” which  you would use
to add an email account and the other is read as “Fetch New Data” and it
is followed by whatever setting is selected which by default I think is
“Push”. Push means that email is “pushed” to your phone and if you set
up an email account you’ll get emails immediately although I seem to
remember something about how this does not work with gmail accounts (I
could be wrong here). Anyhow, I won’t go into every setting here since
your objective at this point is to turn off showing contacts in the app
switcher.

What’s useful is to know that the entire settings area for Mail,
Contacts, Calendar has 4 sections so to speak and each section has it’s
heading which are:

Accounts

Mail

Contacts

Calendar

You can of course swipe right a lot or do a 3-finger swipe up on the
screen to switch pages and then check at the bottom of the screen above
the home button where you are, but if you have mastered using the rotor,
then you can also turn the rotor to “headings” and swipe down with one
finger to go from heading to heading. If I do that and start at the very
top after going into the mail settings, I just have to swipe down 4
times: first swipe takes you to the “Mail, contacts, calendar heading,
second swipe down takes you to the Accounts heading, third to Mail and
the fourth to Contacts.

Once you are on the contacts heading, swipe right 3 times and you’ll
find a button which Voiceover reads as “Show in app switcher. On”.

If you double tap on that button another screen opens and here you find
2 separate buttons which you have to turn off if you want nothing to
show in the app switcher.

These are “Phone Favorites” and “Recents”. I believe both are on by
default and double tapping on each will toggle it to Off.

When you are done you can simply exit Settings by pressing the home
button or you can double tap on the back button a couple of times to get
back to the main settings screen or you can use the scrub gesture, a
sort of zigzag swipe with 2 fingers which is the same as double tapping
on the back

iPhone 6.  I have received a notice that my trial period has been purchased but 
I can’t use the service.  I constantly receive a message to start trial period. 
 I have checked my subscriptions and this one is turned on.  I tried tech 
support yesterday and they were looking in to the problem but have heard 
nothing.
I would appreciate any suggestions as to what I might do.  Thanks very much.

RE: Can't Open Purchased Audio Book

2015-01-03 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Alex,

 

I bought a couple of Audio Books from Apple about 4 years ago, but then I 
signed up with Audible and never looked back. Anyhow, I think a lot of audio 
books Apple has are from Audible anyways and with Audible once you purchase a 
book it’s yours for life even if you cancel your paid membership, you can still 
download and listen books you have purchased.

 

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

I just got off the phone with them, and they did indeed fix it. Apparently, 
audio books are a one-time purchase, so you can't re-download them in the 
future. Given that they are $20 a piece, that's strikes me as utterly 
ridiculous. I'll not be purchasing audio books from iTunes unless and until 
this system changes.

Subject: Can't Open Purchased Audio Book

 

Hi all,

I have three seasons of an audio drama, which I purchased as three audio 
books (remember my troubles viewing them last week?) I've listened to the first 
two with no problem, but the third is giving me trouble. I can open it, and I 
see parts 1 and 2 of the season. Double tapping on either part, however, 
results in absolutely nothing. It won't play, there's no error, I just stay in 
the screen where both parts are displayed below a search field.

 

My first thought was to delete and re-download the book, but I know that when I 
view it in the iTunes Store, the price is shown, whereas purchased apps in the 
App Store show Open or Get, not the price. I don't want to be double 
charged. Any ideas? If I delete it, can I re-download it somehow? Thanks.

Firstly, please excuse my typing, Siri is not working for me, and so I 
hagve been reduced to the keyboard, but the phone is misbehaving, not allowing 
me to edit, and talking over the top of my typing. A Thermomix is a fabulous

in Australia. I know this is off topic for the list, but I am allowing myself a 
bit of post Xmas advertising, as I reckon that this machine, which has turned 
me into a gourmet cook. And, I was awful before.

As for the recipes, yes, they are on the website, but that is a bit like 
saying, here is the ook, isn't that enough? I am trying out Indian cuisine at 
the moment, and want the original recipes.

 felt a cooking gadget was hardly on topic for the Viphone list. If you Google 
 Thermomix you’ll find plenty of results as well as their website. As I said, 
 it is a cooking gadget or whatever you want to call it, but when I see stuff 
 like that especially if it’s been around for decades as seems to be the case 
 with this, I always wonder why it’s not available in every store and used by 
 every household if it’s so great. Only big thing it has going for itself 
 seems to be that its German and I can say from my own experience that “Made 
 in Germany” is definitely a good thing *smile*
  
 Just as a last comment, on their website it did say something about all their 
 recipes being available somehow via the website. So, Sandy, have you checked 
 if you can access the recipes that way?

 My question to you Sandy is: What is a Theromix? I am waiting for the update 
 to complete for JAWS 16. I will then look at both programs; Kurzweil 1000 and 
 OpenBook 9 to see which I will scan the book into. I also do have Fine Reader 
 Pro on theMac, but I'm more familiar with the PC side for text-to-speech 
 software and have extensive experience with them to push the software to 
 their limits. What I don't like with these apps is the fact that when I save 
 the file in a DOC or DOCX format, I lose some of the format of the document. 
 I really need to scan a recipe with KNFB Reader. I only got to the beginning 
 of the book, so no recipes were actually scanned with the app. I will not 
 pull the book apart for a better scan of it.That I do know. Thanks again for 
 all the suggestions. I'll keep all posted on which method I use to scan this

Hi,

A Thermomix is a super kitchen machine and is, in my opinion a true 
liverator to

for blind cooks, but rather expensive. Now, a tip for scanning with the KNFB 
reder and the Stand Scan Pro, if you don't want to damage the spine of the 
gook, I would suggest scanning one page at a time, You dan hold the other side 
of the book virtically, so as to allow the scanning sheet to sit flat. Now, I 
have noticed that KNFB does not do so well if the print is upsidedown, and, 
using this method, every other page will he updidedown, so, do try Prizmo as  
well..

 Hello All, 
 
 My question to you Sandy is: What is a Theromix? I am waiting for the update 
 to complete for JAWS 16. I will then look at both programs; Kurzweil 1000 and 
 OpenBook 9 to see which I will scan the book into. I also do have Fine Reader 
 Pro on theMac, but I'm more familiar with the PC side for text-to-speech 
 software and have extensive experience with them to push the software to 
 their limits. What I don't like with these apps is the fact that when I save 
 the file in a DOC or DOCX format, I lose some of the format of the document. 
 I really need to scan a recipe with KNFB Reader. I only got to the beginning 
 of the book, so no recipes were actually scanned with the app. I will not 
 pull the book apart for a better scan of it.That I do know. Thanks again for 
 all the suggestions. I'll keep all posted on which method I use to scan this 
 large book.

 Hi Sandra and all
 
 Thanks Sandra for the post. Now you are giving me ideas. Maybe, i do find 
 reasons to get KNFBReader after all. I have a bunch of Thermomix Books that 
 sitting on the shell collecting dusts and also hips of fictions and 
 non-fiction books that are rare, either they are from Independent publishers 
 or they are what i'll call festival authors that can't necesarry get it in 
 the main stream market.
 Maybe, i can make good use on KNFBReader with these books after all.
 I just, need to compile list of reasons to convince myself that i do need 
 the KNFB Reader. I have been an iphone user for the last 5 years, and i have 
 never pay for any app that is over $5... grins.
 
 
 Thanks for the idea.

 Eileen,
 This is serendipitous as I have just started to scan some cookery books 
 myself.now, although K n FB is a very good app the requirements for 
 scanning recipes requires complete precision.even when using my stand scan 
 pro I find there will be the odd error.these errors are so slight that if I 
 was scanning fiction, for example, they wouldn't matter, but with 
 recipes…so, I decided to bite the bullet and ask my partner to use his flat 
 bed scanner and PC to create PDF files.he then can pass those files over to 
 me and KN FB will digitise them.I should mention that I no longer have a PC 
 or laptop or my own flat bed scanner. his PC/laptop are barred to 
 me!neither does he have any screen readers on them.don't I sound 
 pitiable?however, this was my choice: having decided that I would never, 
 never pay the extortionate rates that the adaptive software was asking of 
 me again.I know there are programs such as NVD a et cetera which I could 
 now use, but when I decided to give up my laptop this wasn't really a 
 viable option.Plus, I wanted to push my iPhone to its limit.so, in short, 
 if you can obtain PDF files, you can use the KFFB reader to OCR them for 
 you.I don't suppose your cookery books are for a Thermomix are they?this is 
 my latest indulgence and has turned me from  an appalling cook into really 
 quite a good one!unfortunately, all the recipe books for the Thermomix do 
 not exist in E format.good luck to you and happy cooking!

 Hi Richard,
  
 I agree that while KNFB Reader is an awesome app, there are projects where 
 a scanner solution is better just as you’d rent a moving truck if you want 
 to move rather than making 20 trips with the car. The ideal solution would 
 be to have a scanner with automatic document feeder and to destroy the 
 book so you can just run the pages through the scanner. I have a Fujitsu 
 Scansnap IX500 and while it would only scan to PDF, it is so super blazing 
 fast and does automatic souble sided scanning. If I had a paperback book 
 with 300 pages I could probably scan that with that scanner in about 5 
 minutes and then just use Openbook to recognize the single PDF file. I 
 guess now that Jaws does OCR on entire PDF documents you could even open 
 the PDF in Adobe Reader and tell Jaws to do the OCR. It would

Hi,

I second Richards advice. Change your Apple ID password and if you
have used the same password for different services, change those also.
I would suggest that you change all of your passwords using your phone
as opposed to a computer, unless your computer is a Mac. Once your
passwords have been changed, assuming you have a Windows computer, I
would use your anty virus / anty malware programs to scan your
computer (perform full scans and not quick ones) to hopefully remove
any infections. If you don't feel confident in doing this last part
yourself I highhly suggest that you use a local computer repair shop;
not cleaning the computer properly may result in your account being
compromised again, there by making everything that you've done so far
useless. IMHO the cost of having a professional take care of the
computer is worth it if you lack the experience to say for certain
that it is no longer infected.

Good luck,
Ben.

Re: How do I adjust the Alarm volume on an iPhone 6?

2015-01-03 Thread Teresa Cochran
Also, the alarm sound is one of the alerts in Settings, Sounds. In the Alerts 
and Ringers Section, double-check the change with buttons setting. If it's 
off, you won't be able to change the alarm volume with the buttons. You can 
change it with the slider in the Sounds settings, though.

 When you select your alarm tone it will play and while it is playing I

Thanks for mentioning the release of the Kurzweil software. I will
have to review the new features before making a decision to get the
update. When I have a little more time, I'll check out the
alternative book sources to see if I can get an electronic version.

Hi Eileen, I really second what Richard said about finding a

have hardcopy books if you have an a vision to see the pictures or

getting cookbooks in electronic versions. I have had Kurzweil 1000

Hello All,

My question to you Sandy is: What is a Theromix? I am waiting for
the update to complete for JAWS 16. I will then look at both
programs; Kurzweil 1000 and OpenBook 9 to see which I will scan
the book into. I also do have Fine Reader Pro on theMac, but I'm
more familiar with the PC side for text-to-speech software and
have extensive experience with them to push the software to their
limits. What I don't like with these apps is the fact that when I
save the file in a DOC or DOCX format, I lose some of the format
of the document. I really need to scan a recipe with KNFB Reader.
I only got to the beginning of the book, so no recipes were
actually scanned with the app. I will not pull the book apart for
a better scan of it.That I do know. Thanks again for all the
suggestions. I'll keep all posted on which method I use to scan
this large book.

I'm not sure I was being critical, just commenting. I certainly would never 
tell anyone how to handle their mail or phone call logs! I did set mine to 
delete all messages I've deleted after 30 days. Maybe I wouldn't care either 
how long they sat on the phone if I had a bigger capacity on this old phone. I 
guess I also don't trust myself, and worry that I'd accidentally be wasting my 
time wondering what was old and what was new. Speaking of that, I see I am 
indeed notified if I have a message text or call and that appears in the doc 
following the messages icon. That's succinct! 
Meanwhile did I turn on a very disconcerting noise for when I hit the 
lock screen button? Does one exist that sounds like the phone is shorting out?

Can't Open Purchased Audio Book

2015-01-03 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
I have three seasons of an audio drama, which I purchased as three audio 
books (remember my troubles viewing them last week?) I've listened to the first 
two with no problem, but the third is giving me trouble. I can open it, and I 
see parts 1 and 2 of the season. Double tapping on either part, however, 
results in absolutely nothing. It won't play, there's no error, I just stay in 
the screen where both parts are displayed below a search field.

My first thought was to delete and re-download the book, but I know that when I 
view it in the iTunes Store, the price is shown, whereas purchased apps in the 
App Store show Open or Get, not the price. I don't want to be double 
charged. Any ideas? If I delete it, can I re-download it somehow? Thanks.

save the file in a DOC or DOCX format, I lose some of the format
of the document. I really need to scan a recipe with KNFB Reader.
I only got to the beginning of the book, so no recipes were

a better scan of it.That I do know. Thanks again for all the

One way you can do it is to go to the Accessibility settings under General
settings and hit on the rotor. You can add sounds so that when you are in
any app you can turn the rotor to sounds and then swipe to turn them on or
off. You'll want to then turn the rotor to something else like words or
characters so that you are not continually accidentally turning them on and
off, if that makes sense to you at this point! Your old friend, Deidre

accessing photos and voice memos in iTunes12 on pc

2015-01-03 Thread Shai
Hello all,
I am trying to access photos and voice memos that were sunk from my
iPhone in iTunes12 on the pc. How do I access these?
For voice memos, I checked in the voice memos playlist; however, there
are no voice memos there. I know that there are voice memos since
erasing them and resyncing  with iTunes makes them reappear.
For photos, I went to the iPhone button while having my iPhone
connected and went to photos but they did not show up. I also know
that these are there since resyncing in iTunes makes them come back
again.
For reference, I am using JAWS15.
Any assistance  would be appreciated

My iOS 8.1.2 Upgrade Experience and Post Upgrade Questions

2015-01-03 Thread Alan Lemly
I was fortunate with about only 33 days left on my iPhone 5 Apple Care that
my headphone jack went out on the right side of my warranty. So I got a
brand new iPhone 5 today from the Apple Store. But it came with iOS 8.1.2
which I'm not sure I was quite ready for but I'm not one to look a gift
horse in the mouth. this is the second new iPhone 5 I've gotten under Apple
Care and both times the failure was with the headphone jack. Like many
others on this list, I constantly use earphones with my iPhone and I prefer
the wired earpods because I love the remote button for listening to books.
Apparently, the electronics in the earphone jack that interact with the
earpod controls failed because the remote and volume buttons stopped
working.

 

I successfully restored my encrypted iTunes backup but was disappointed to
learn that data such as books downloaded in BARD Mobile, voices purchased in
voice Dream Reader, and other things I've no doubt yet to identify do not
restore with an encrypted iTunes backup. Can someone comment on why this is?
Are these apps not set up so that their data is backed up with an iTunes
backup or is this some sort of Apple restriction?

 

I know I've seen posts about notifications in iOS 8 but since I've been
running iOS 7.1.2, I've not followed them. When I tap the clear
notifications button on my notification screen, nothing happens. Is this
still a bug? Is there a workaround for clearing notifications?

 

I can tell a definite difference in the sound of VoiceOver in iOS 8 versus
7. It sounds more as if it's coming from a well and does not seem as sharp
at least to my ears. Have others experienced this or is this due to running
on an iPhone 5 with less processing power? I also noticed that the word
gigabyte is pronounced yigabyte which seems odd since I would expect audio
quality to improve with iOS upgrades.

 

I'd love any help with my questions and also appreciate any comments
regarding similar iOS 8 upgrade experiences. I realize I'm late to the
upgrade party and please excuse my tardiness.

Re: Good color identifying apps

2015-01-03 Thread Andy Baracco
None are very good because of poor lighting. The dedicated devices are better 
because they have their own light source, and you hold the device right up to 
the item that you are working with. These color ID apps are more for 
entertainment purposes than anything else.

Re: My iOS 8.1.2 Upgrade Experience and Post Upgrade Questions

2015-01-03 Thread Christopher Chaltain

Just a couple of thoughts.

First, you talk about the remote buttons on your wired ear pods and 
using them when reading books. You can get the same functionality with 
bluetooth headsets. I wasn't sure from your email if you were thinking 
that only the remote buttons on a wired headset would work with reading 
books.


I double tap the clear notifications button and then double tap it a 
second time to confirm and my notifications are cleared. I've also heard 
people say a triple tap of the clear notifications button will also work.


It sounds like maybe the high quality voice hasn't downloaded yet. You 
might want to check into this and even force this download if it hasn't 
happened yet.

Can an iTunes gift card be used to purchase iBooks?

RE: Good color identifying apps

2015-01-03 Thread Ron Pelletier
Hi,

 

You probably will continue to download less than satisfactory apps.  I 
downloaded about 6 of them and never could rely on any of them.  There is 
nothing like a stand alone device.

A stand alone device sits directly on the material to check with a seal all 
around so that colours are not distorted. I don’t know how a cell phone app 
could do that unless you could put the camera directly on the material to be 
checked. With the smart phone, too much depends on the ambient lighting.  Up

Re: Can an iTunes gift card be used to purchase iBooks?

2015-01-03 Thread Michael Feir
Once you redeam your card, the money goes into the balance associated
with your apple ID. I got a gift card of $50 this Christmas and used
it to purchase two somewhat expensive iBOOKS using the iBOOKS app. It
worked flawlessly. happy reading and happy new year.

RE: My iOS 8.1.2 Upgrade Experience and Post Upgrade Questions

2015-01-03 Thread Alan Lemly
Christopher,

Thanks for your comments. I have posted looking for bluetooth headsets with
the remote button capabilities and got some good suggestions but decided to
stick with the wired earpods because they sound so very good and others have
said that bluetooth sound quality can't match wired quality. I'll just use
extra care this time around to try and minimize the number of times I plug
and unplug my earpods.

I have tried double tapping and triple tapping the clear notifications
button but nothing happens. I'll keep playing with this as more
notifications arrive.

I do have the high quality voices downloaded for US, British, and Australian
English and can tell that the pitch is simply different than it was on my
phone under iOS 7.1.2. It's not a big deal and I'm sure I'll adjust but the
mispronunciation of gigabyte as yigabyte is curious. I also noticed that
VoiceOver doesn't say the TV portion of the DirecTV app but instead just
seems to emit a sort of click cough such that only the word Direct is
pronounced. Like I said, these aren't big issues and I'm sure I'll quickly
adapt but I am curious if others who are using iOS 8.1.2 on newer hardware
such as the 5S and 6 phones have noticed any difference in the VoiceOver
speech from iOS 7.x.

Just a couple of thoughts.

First, you talk about the remote buttons on your wired ear pods and 
using them when reading books. You can get the same functionality with 
bluetooth headsets. I wasn't sure from your email if you were thinking 
that only the remote buttons on a wired headset would work with reading 
books.

I double tap the clear notifications button and then double tap it a 
second time to confirm and my notifications are cleared. I've also heard 
people say a triple tap of the clear notifications button will also work.

It sounds like maybe the high quality voice hasn't downloaded yet. You 
might want to check into this and even force this download if it hasn't 
happened yet.

 I was fortunate with about only 33 days left on my iPhone 5 Apple Care
 that my headphone jack went out on the right side of my warranty. So I
 got a brand new iPhone 5 today from the Apple Store. But it came with
 iOS 8.1.2 which I'm not sure I was quite ready for but I'm not one to
 look a gift horse in the mouth. this is the second new iPhone 5 I've
 gotten under Apple Care and both times the failure was with the
 headphone jack. Like many others on this list, I constantly use
 earphones with my iPhone and I prefer the wired earpods because I love
 the remote button for listening to books. Apparently, the electronics in
 the earphone jack that interact with the earpod controls failed because
 the remote and volume buttons stopped working.

 I successfully restored my encrypted iTunes backup but was disappointed
 to learn that data such as books downloaded in BARD Mobile, voices
 purchased in voice Dream Reader, and other things I've no doubt yet to
 identify do not restore with an encrypted iTunes backup. Can someone
 comment on why this is? Are these apps not set up so that their data is
 backed up with an iTunes backup or is this some sort of Apple restriction?

 I know I've seen posts about notifications in iOS 8 but since I've been
 running iOS 7.1.2, I've not followed them. When I tap the clear
 notifications button on my notification screen, nothing happens. Is this
 still a bug? Is there a workaround for clearing notifications?

 I can tell a definite difference in the sound of VoiceOver in iOS 8
 versus 7. It sounds more as if it's coming from a well and does not seem
 as sharp at least to my ears. Have others experienced this or is this
 due to running on an iPhone 5 with less processing power? I also noticed
 that the word gigabyte is pronounced yigabyte which seems odd since I
 would expect audio quality to improve with iOS upgrades.

 I'd love any help with my questions and also appreciate any comments
 regarding similar iOS 8 upgrade experiences. I realize I'm late to the
 upgrade party and please excuse my tardiness.

Comments on Latest Fleksy Upgrade on 1/2/15?

2015-01-03 Thread Alan Lemly
After getting my replacement iPhone 5 today with iOS 8.1.2, I was perusing
the updates on the Apps Store and saw that Fleksy had an update on 1/2/15.
With the problems Fleksy has seemed to have had under iOS 8 and with
VoiceOver, has anyone tried this latest update and what are your comments
about how it works?
