Re: an audio tutorial on blindfold bowling

[Regina Alvarado]

I was just playing Blindfold Bowling. I tried the two finger throw and failed 
miserably. I had hoped to try and listen to the podcast, but I cannot download 
it, and the first link ran it but kept playing the first part of the podcast 
over and over. Can someone describe to me how you place your 2 fingers please? 
When it dings, do you flick up with the finger just put down? All I get is 
either a gutter ball if the ball goes anywhere or the game gives me that 
horrible honk that puts my teed on edge! LOL!

Re: Question about BARD update

[Jeffrey Shockley]

Hi,
That is what it means, so your thinking is correct. At least, that’s what the 
Magic Tap is referred to usually. I have updated Bard, and I have noticed that 
so far, doing a two-finger double tap, AKA the Magic Tap,  to stop and resume 
playback works much better.
Hope this helps,
Jeffrey

Restoring iTunes music purchases

[Wayne Merritt]

I have signed up for the iTunes Match service to help keep copies of all my 
music and take it from one device to the next. I was having a problem with 
iTunes on my MacBook Pro and took it to my local Apple Store. Long story short, 
I was told to delete all the songs from the iTunes library and import it again 
from the external drive that I have my backups on. I did that and now my 
purchases from iTunes are not showing up on my iPhone 6S. Well, some are but 
only 23 out of around 75 so far. Is there a way I can go and restore all the 
music I’ve purchased over the years? If so how do I do that? I’m fairly certain 
that my music is still in the cloud since it was purchased through the iTunes 
Store on the iPhone. It could be that I am overly anxious and the music is 
still in the process of uploading/transferring between my Mac and iPhone and 
the cloud. I’m using an iPhone 6S with iOS 9.0.2 and a macBook Pro with 
Yosemite.

Thanks bunch in advance,
Wayne

Re: dice world username

[Sharonda Greenlaw]

I'm joining this convo by saying that my DiceWorld username is
Sharonda3570 and I play pretty much the same games--Farkle, 1,4,24,
and 3's and Pig. I can do these with or without bonus, just depends on

I was using the button on the earpiece as the article that Gary posted said 
worked so well so you wouldn’t have to take your phone out of your pocket to 
interact with Siri.
I guess maybe that really isn’t the case unless you have really tiny fingers 
that don’t block the microphone or something.
 
Very odd.

Hi Richard,
 
Are you using the home button to activate Siri rather than the clicker? I tried 
using the clicker at one time, but I think that when I did that, my hand 
blocked the mic, so Siri didn't work well. Once I started using the Home button 
to activate Siri, I stopped having trouble being understood by Siri.
 
Best,
Anna

Hello, Richard.

SIRI works pretty well with my Apple EarPods and with the Bose MIE2i

are trying to use a later phone with a more recent iOS version.

Just my opinion, but, I wish they would get rid of that screen or put it in 
English for phones that use that language.  I realize it really makes no

be sure it is on English before tapping anyway, but all those languages and the

No, even if you double tap when another language is displayed, the setup will 
continue in English. I assume the phone already knows that it is in North

There really isn't that much to tab on and even in many other languages other

RE: How do I cancel a recurring event?

[Richard Turner]

Hi,
When I have a reoccurring event and flick up and double tap on delete I have 
these choices,
Delete this event only,
Delete all future events or 
Cancel.

Are you in the edit mode of the event?  If you are editing the event, it is 
asking if you want to save the future events.

You can't delete if you are editing the event.
Just go to the event and flick up with one finger and double tap on delete.

HTH,
Richard

Subject: How do I cancel a recurring event?

Hi,

I use the Native Calendar app and Fantastical.

I have a recurring event for every 2 weeks that has now run its course. The 
event is still coming up every 2 weeks in both calendars. How can I delete 
this? Whenever I try, it tells me it is a recurring event with only 2 options - 
Cancel or Save for Future Events. I'm not exactly sure what the latter means.

Thanks for any help.

Keith

RE: Siri and Earpods or other headphones

[Richard Turner]

This is fascinating.

I think not all Earpods are created equal or I’m completely crazy.  Neither of 
which would I doubt right now.

 

I have an app called Handy Rec.  It has the ability to monitor what the 
microphone hears so you can hear it in your earphones.

My Earpods that came with my iPhone have the button that is about an inch and a 
quarter or perhaps a tiny bit less in length.

One side is completely smooth.

The other side, has a section about one half inch long that is inset which is 
the main button, but also the microphone surface.  How do I know that?  Because 
with handy Rec running if I touch any part of the inset section, I hear the 
sound of my finger touching the microphone.

If I touch anywhere on the opposite side, the smooth side, I do not hear that.

If I touch the volume up or volume down buttons that are at the end of the 
inset section/microphone, I do not hear anything through the earphones.

 

There is no detectable notch on these.

 

My conclusion is that the inset section in its Entirety, is the microphone.  
That is also what you have to press in to activate Siri.

 

So, I took a pair of needle nose plyers, which are very thin, and very gently 
squeezed the button and held it until I heard the tones indicating Siri is 
listening.  I ask Siri a question and Siri said “I didn’t get that.”  A 
variation on that statement is all I can get out of Siri when using the Earpods.

So, like I say, either I’m crazy, or these Earpods are different than the ones 
some of you are using.

Or, they are defective.

Thanks for trying to help.

 

Richard

I would try this. It's going to be a little hard to explain, but you might want 
to try squeezing the entire housing of the remote between thumb and pointer or 
middle finger, but place whatever finger on the back of the remote, where the 
mic is housed, a little further down on the housing. You might also try using 
your fingernail to find the mic. It'll feel like a little knick on the side of 
the housing opposite the buttons. Place your finger that will be on that side 
of the housing when activating Siri beneath that knick, and you should be fine. 
Personally, I've not had problems with Siri when using wireed headset mics. 
Where I run into trouble with Siri is when I'm using my LG HBS  700 bluetooth 
headset. I don't think that's Siri's fault, though.

Very odd.

Hi Richard,

 

Are you using the home button to activate Siri rather than the clicker? I tried 
using the clicker at one time, but I think that when I did that, my hand 
blocked the mic, so Siri didn't work well. Once I started using the Home button 
to activate Siri, I stopped having trouble being understood by Siri.

Re: Looking for a ring tone app

[englishrider91]

Do you mean, where can you find the ringtones ones they've been saved to your 
phone via the save button in the ringtones screen? There's a menu button in the 
top left-hand corner of the phone. Double-tap this, and in the screen that pops 
up, you'll find something that says saved ringtones. Double-tap that, and 
you'll be in the list of ringtones that you selected to save. You'll have to 
email them to yourself one by one, and download them from your email one by 
one, but you won't need any sighted help to do this.


Thanks,
Ari

 Hi Jen,
 
 Have you tried going to settings in the zedge app, and tapping autopreview 
 ringtones? It will not select like a normal button, but tap it and wait 
 for it to say on. It will be a little bit delayed. That's how I got mine 
 to play.

Re: an audio tutorial on blindfold bowling

Hi Paul and all!  Yes, setting pins at MSB sure helped in knowing the
layout!  GRIN!

Rose, did you bowl here in the Valley?  That is the one thing I miss
since moving  out here from Michigan, but I live Way out here in Apache
Junction, so transportation is always an issue.

I bowled four games against the computer this morning and won 2 out of 4.
 I like the fact that you get different aponents with different skill
levels, but even the poorer bowlers always seem to pick up there spares! 
GRIN!  This morning I was using the one finger simple mode, as I need to
work on the aiming mode a bit.  Can anyone explain the 2 finger mode?  I
haven't been able to figure that one out at all.  It will be nice if they
eventually include the capability to play against others on line!

Have a good one:

Re: dice world username

[Shawn Krasniuk]

Hi. My username for Dice World is BBS. I like bonus games but will play 
non-bonus games if that's what my opponent prefers. I play Farkle, 3's, 1, 4, 
24 and sometimes Pig depending on if I have the patience for it. I will not 
play Ballot or Yahtzee so if you challenge me to those two you'll be in for a 
rejection.

When I have a reoccurring event and flick up and double tap on delete I have

Are you in the edit mode of the event?  If you are editing the event, it is 
asking if you want to save the future events.

You can't delete if you are editing the event.
Just go to the event and flick up with one finger and double tap on delete.

Re: Siri and Earpods or other headphones

[Alan Lemly]

Richard, 

I got my magnifier out to look closely at my apple earpods that came with my 
iPhone 6. I could find no openings that I thought should be there to serve as a 
microphone yet the smooth side opposite the remote and volume buttons does have 
a picture of a microphone on it so there's one there. I'm just not sure where. 

I think I agree with Craig that your issue might be related to iOS 9. I have no 
problem summoning Siri when holding down the earpod remote button as you 
described. I am running iOS 8.3.

Subject: A Very Surprising Suggestion by an Apple Accessibility Technical 
Support Representative

Hello Everyone,

As I have posted, on-list, since updating to iOS 9.0.2, I have not been able to 
either add or remove any media from my iPhone 5 S,
be it audio books, ring tones, music, etc.

After extensive research, I discovered that many of those using iTunes for 
Windows and even some using OS X, were experiencing the
same problem.  As would be expected, there were suggestions as to how to 
resolve this problem.
I tried all of them and none worked, for me.

Finally, yesterday, I decided to call the Apple accessibility support number.

As it is not my intention to write a novel here, I will just provide the sum 
and substance of my call.  By the way, I want you to
know that the tech was very gracious and professional.  As I had dedicated an 
entire afternoon to resolving this problem, I, too,
was very patient and polite.

1.
I asked the rep if he was familiar or had any recent experience using iTunes 
for Windows.  He said yes.

2.
He told me that he had heard of no problems with syncing between the 5 S 
running 9.0.2 and that he was personally using Windows with
a 5 S with no
problem during our call.

3.
Because I have yet to hear an Apple support specialist admit that there may be 
a bug in anything, (just my experience, mind you), I
had prepared a URL to give to the tech to prove that this problem has been 
reported to Apple since as early as the first release of
iOS 9.0.  I will admit that it gave me a lot of satisfaction when he returned 
to the line, after visiting the site containing the
reports, minus his, if not arrogance, then his conviction that mine was an 
isolated issue.

4.
After spending a lot of time on the phone with no success, he inadvertently 
admitted that he was using a Mac to help me
troubleshoot.  This came up because we were searching for some system files 
that clearly do not exist on a Windows PC.  When I
called him out on this, he admitted that he was not using a Windows PC during 
our call.

The Surprise:
5.
He suggested that I use a third-party application, instead of iTunes, to sync 
my iOS devices.

I was really stunned at his suggestion, to say the least.

He was unable to resolve my problem.

However, I am delighted to report that, after doing some thinking on the 
matter, I decided to attempt a different approach and,
thankfully, it was successful.  The following are the steps I took in order to 
resolve the
problem:

1.
Before launching iTunes for Windows and attaching my 5 S, after unhiding the 
system files, I deleted the .iPSW file that was
initially downloaded in iTunes.  Doing this forced iTunes to download a fresh 
copy of iOS 9.0.2 to my PC.

2.
I restored my 5 S and set it up as a new phone.

3.
I then restored a previously saved backup of my 5 S.

Now, all is working as it should and I am experiencing absolutely no

In the past this screen has proven problematic with voiceover.

I dont' remember what i did to get past it.

Any tips on how to handle that?

Maybe its not a problem with IOS9 just can't remember.

If I can give her a way to do it reliably I would prefer that as opposed to 
going over there to do it for her.

Better to teach a person to fish...

Thanks in advance.

A Quick Reminder about Visual Voicemail in iOS 9.x

[M. Taylor]

Hello Everyone, 

Just a quick reminder that in iOS 9.x, if you have visual voicemail as part
of your cell service, you can bring up the share sheet on any voicemail
message.  This is an extremely useful feature.

 Hello Richard, the third-party app he recommended was iMazing.  He said
 that there is both a Mac and a Windows version.

 A sighted friend of mine uses iMazing on the Mac and swears by it.

 Subject: A Very Surprising Suggestion by an Apple Accessibility
 Technical
 Support Representative

 Hello Everyone,

 As I have posted, on-list, since updating to iOS 9.0.2, I have not been
 able to either add or remove any media from my iPhone 5 S,
 be it audio books, ring tones, music, etc.

 After extensive research, I discovered that many of those using iTunes
 for
 Windows and even some using OS X, were experiencing the
 same problem.  As would be expected, there were suggestions as to how
 to
 resolve this problem.
 I tried all of them and none worked, for me.

 Finally, yesterday, I decided to call the Apple accessibility support
 number.

 As it is not my intention to write a novel here, I will just provide
 the
 sum and substance of my call.  By the way, I want you to
 know that the tech was very gracious and professional.  As I had
 dedicated
 an entire afternoon to resolving this problem, I, too,
 was very patient and polite.

 1.
 I asked the rep if he was familiar or had any recent experience using
 iTunes for Windows.  He said yes.

 2.
 He told me that he had heard of no problems with syncing between the 5
 S
 running 9.0.2 and that he was personally using Windows with
 a 5 S with no
 problem during our call.

 3.
 Because I have yet to hear an Apple support specialist admit that there
 may be a bug in anything, (just my experience, mind you), I
 had prepared a URL to give to the tech to prove that this problem has
 been
 reported to Apple since as early as the first release of
 iOS 9.0.  I will admit that it gave me a lot of satisfaction when he
 returned to the line, after visiting the site containing the
 reports, minus his, if not arrogance, then his conviction that mine was
 an
 isolated issue.

 4.
 After spending a lot of time on the phone with no success, he
 inadvertently admitted that he was using a Mac to help me
 troubleshoot.  This came up because we were searching for some system
 files that clearly do not exist on a Windows PC.  When I
 called him out on 

RE: Updating IOS and the hello screen:

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Alan,

I guess your memory must be failing because you can't ask SIRI to turn on 
Voiceover that early on in the setup process, during the setup you have to 
enable SIRI and it won't work until after you completed the initial setup. You 
probably turned on Voiceover with a triple press of the home key which normally 
works, when I received my new iPhone 6S which, for the first time since I 
started using iPhones was bought on contract from my carrier, a triple press of 
the home key for some reason did nothing and I had to ask one of my employees 
to navigate through the setup screens for me.


Regards,
Sieghard

Re: locking the screen or not locking the screen in landscape or portrait is the question

[Michelle Bernstein]

I keep my Ipad Air locked in portrait as I just find it easier to work with 
the screen and the device in this mode.
The content is distributed in a wider format with less height in landscape 
mode and in portrait mode, the screen content has more height but less 
depth.
The portrait mode is more similiar to what reading on traditional paper is 
like and so is more comfortable with me.

How to use your iPhone EarPods like a pro
 By Christian Zibreg
 Oct 16, 2015, 7:41 pm

EarPods pro tips
Those funky headphones that came with your iPhone—EarPods with Remote and Mic 
they’re called—only have 3 buttons but boy do they perform a surprising number 
of functions beyond volume control. And with built-in mic, your EarPods can 
make and receive phone calls and control media playback.
Moreover, you can use them for recording voice memos, interacting with Siri 
hands-free, VoIP calling in apps like Skype and more, all with a pinch of the 
cord. Wait, I need this article to tell me how to plug my EarPods and listen to 
music?
We’re not saying you’re not familiar with your EarPods. But as with other 
things in life, there are always new tricks to be learned. This post will 
hopefully help you master your EarPods like a pro.
In this article, we’ll tell you all the cool things your EarPods can do, from 
rich playback control and controlling Siri to switching calls on the fly, using 
VoiceOver and so forth. We’ll also discuss EarPods compatibility, talk about 
keeping your headset in pristine condition and lay out sound advice for using 
your headset responsibly.
Your Apple headset, or any other Bluetooth headset or headphones,can be used to 
listen to music, videos, audiobooks, podcasts and games. But the EarPods go 
much further than that. Let’s get started with the basics so everyone is on the 
same page.
EarPods buttons
The EarPods with Remote and Mic are outfitted with built-in microphone for 
making calls, controlling your music playback and more. They also sport an 
integrated inline remote with volume up and down buttons. There’s also a third 
button called the center button, which does all the magic.

The EarPods with Remote and Mic are bundled with all iPods and iPhones from the 
iPhone 5 onward, but not with iPads. A higher-quality version, the Apple In-Ear 
Headphones with Remote and Mic, are available independently, for $79.
Needless to say, third-party headphones will support your Apple gadgets, and 
most other devices for that matter, without any issues.
How to control media playback with EarPods
You can use your EarPods to listen to music and videos and control media 
playback. And with iOS 9, your headset is even smarter. When you plug in your 
headphones, iOS 9’s Proactive assistant will recognize that you might want to 
play an album you started earlier.
Like magic, your music will be ready to play straight from the Lock screen (you 
might need to swipe the Music icon up from the lower left corner to open the 
Music app). To control media playback with your EarPods, memorize the following 
shortcuts.
◾ Increase playback volume: Press the + button.
◾ Decrease playback volume: Press the – button.
◾ Play or pause a song or video: Press the center button once. Press again to 
resume playback.
◾ Skip to the next song or chapter: Press the center button twice quickly.
◾ Return to the previous song or chapter: Press the center button three times 
quickly.
◾ Fast-forward: Press the center button twice quickly and hold.
◾ Rewind: Press the center button three times quickly and hold.
◾ Record a voice memo: Launch Voice Memos and press the center button. Press it

You can use your headphones to take images and capture video in iOS’s stock 
Camera app, or in third-party camera apps that supports using the volume 
control to take images.
◾ Take a photo: Press the center button once to snap a photo.
◾ Start/stop recording a video: Press the center button once to start video

How to use Siri with EarPods
There’s nothing more convenient than conversing with Siri hands-free. Not

To talk to Siri via your EarPods, use the following shortcuts.
◾ Summon Siri: Press and hold the center button, then make your request.
◾ Continue a conversation with Siri: Press and hold the center button each time 
you want to talk.
◾ Adjust the volume for Siri: Use the volume buttons while you’re interacting

To control when Siri listens instead of letting her notice when you stop 
talking, simply continue to hold down the center button while you speak, and 
release it when you finish.

◾ Decrease phone call volume: Press the – button.
◾ Answer an incoming call: Press the center button once to answer.

RE: an audio tutorial on blindfold bowling

I downloaded the game yesterday afternoon and played one game after reading the 
help file.  I did about as well as I once did in real life, 72 was my game, 80 
was my average the last year I bowled.  I kept getting a lot of pins on first 
ball but could not figure out how to get the spares, but that was one game only 
as I needed to do something else.

RE: Updating IOS and the hello screen:

[Rose Combs]

Just my opinion, but, I wish they would get rid of that screen or put it in 
English for phones that use that language.  I realize it really makes no 
difference but I get a bit nervous whenever I see this screen.  I try always to 
be sure it is on English before tapping anyway, but all those languages and the 
possibility that someday it may not revert back for me is  daunting.

Hi Don,

No, even if you double tap when another language is displayed, the setup will 
continue in English. I assume the phone already knows that it is in North 
America.
There really isn't that much to tab on and even in many other languages other 
than the Asian ones or maybe Russian etc. you sort of get the idea of what it 
means.

just bought my way classic but…

['Sandratomkins' via VIPhone]

hi,
I just bought my way classic, running on my iPhone six and 9.02, Everytime I 
try to open a file to find the manual I get bounced out of the app. I have 
tried to reset and have deleted and re-downloaded the app. it's still behaving 
in the same way. So, I am wondering, is this a 9.02 bug? is anyone else 
experiencing this with this app? I note that it's most recent update is from 
September, so, might this be the reason?

all advice much welcome, as I am interested in this app now that it can work 
with beacons!

Re: Going back one screen from the Bluetooth keyboard when there's no escape key?

[Krister Ekstrom]

Nope it doesn’t work on this one. Well there’s fortunately a somewhat involved 
but a workaround for the problem. I will have to use quicknav for this and then 
press ctrl+up arrow i think it is to go to the very first item on the screen. 
Since this is the ”back” button i can then press it. Is there a way to go to 
the first item on the screen without turning quicknav on?

Re: Updating IOS and the hello screen:

[Don Breda]

Thanks very much for all of your replies on the subject.

That is what I thought but wasn't 100% sure.

Doesn't matter for me but when giving someone else advice I prefer to be 
precise whenever possible.


Thanks.

Don

Hi Don,

No, even if you double tap when another language is displayed, the setup will 
continue in English. I assume the phone already knows that it is in North

There really isn't that much to tab on and even in many other languages other 
than the Asian ones or maybe Russian etc. you sort of get the idea of what it 
means.

Hope someone can kindly assist.

Re: Updating IOS and the hello screen:

[Alan Paganelli]

I think I remember something about asking Siri to turn voice over on and that 
set the default to English United States and of course, that's where I was and 
I remember thinking now that's slick.  At 67 years old my memory ain't what it 
once was but that's the way I remember it or at least I think that's how it 
went down.

Siri and Earpods or other headphones

Has anyone gotten Siri to work with the Apple Earpods or another headset
with inline microphone?

It never understands me whether I use the Apple Earpods or my Bose Mobile
headset.

Re: Siri and Earpods or other headphones

[Craig Werner]

Hello, Richard.

SIRI works pretty well with my Apple EarPods and with the Bose MIE2i
headphones.  However, I'm using an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.3, and I'm
thinking you are trying to use a later phone with a more recent iOS
version.

Re: Updating IOS and the hello screen:

VoiceOver speaks in different languages for a good reason. Visually a 
globa that goes round and round appears on screen. So we know what it 
is, VoiceOver speaks in all the possible languages, then starts at the 
beginning and so on.

No, even if you double tap when another language is displayed, the setup will

Hi Jen,

Have you tried going to settings in the zedge app, and tapping 
autopreview ringtones? It will not select like a normal button, but tap 
it and wait for it to say on. It will be a little bit delayed. That's 
how I got mine to play.

To add to this, I like the games that are simple, easy to play on the fly

Subject: A Question About Games for iPhone

There has been quite a discussion about accessible games for iOS, on-list.

There used to be a game called Aurify that was, in my opinion, the best
audio game ever developed for iOS.  The game stopped working and stopped
being supported many years ago.

To those of you who may remember it, is there anything like it now?

The most regretful thing about my experience with Aurify is that if I had
not updated my 3GS to iOS 4.0, I would still be enjoying it, today.  As it
turned out, I did update to iOS 4.0 and by the time I realized the
incompatibility problem, it was too late to return to iOS 3.1.3.  I still
have my 3GS and it continues to work just fine, even after all these years,
a testament to Steve Jobbs and Apple, no doubt.

Also, aside from chess, does anyone know of any VoiceOver accessible or
self-voicing board games for iOS such as monopoly?

Personally, I am not a fan of narrative games or games of violence so am
looking for a fun, happy, game that is easy to play.

Thank you,

Mark

RE: A Quick Reminder about Visual Voicemail in iOS 9.x

OK, I understand, but I do not see how this applies to visual voicemail, I 
don't wish to share my voice mail with anyone, or at least so far I have not 
wished to do so.  
What is the point?

The share sheet is what you access when you double tap a share button 
throughout iOS. For example open a website in Safari and there is a 
share button at the bottom of the screen on an iPhone and somewhere at 
the top on an iPad.

RE: Cribbage

[Richard Turner]

Right, that is what I meant in my message you just replied to.
What I just wrote to Fuller Systems, the creators of Cribbage Pro, was:
"in the Go round, it says "the count is now 10," but is that a 10, a jack, a 
king or a queen?  And, the suit might be helpful.

I'd suggest others write them: supp...@fullersystems.com
I hope  that makes sense.

Hi Richard,

I didn't notice what you did.  What I'm talking about is when you are pegging 
(you know, working your way to 31) the opponent's card is not announced.  The 
current total is announced but if a ten card was last played  youdon't know 
what it was (10, jack, queen, king) without flicking up to look.

Did you experience this too?  I've dinked around in settings but there doesn't 
seem to be a solution there.

RE: Siri and Earpods or other headphones

Hello, Richard.

SIRI works pretty well with my Apple EarPods and with the Bose MIE2i
headphones.  However, I'm using an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.3, and I'm
thinking you are trying to use a later phone with a more recent iOS
version.

Hi

My username is christopher916. I play all games but prefer not to play 
Balut. My favourite is Farkle and am very good at that. Have beaten 
opponents several times now.

Subject: A Question About Games for iPhone

There has been quite a discussion about accessible games for iOS, on-list.

There used to be a game called Aurify that was, in my opinion, the best
audio game ever developed for iOS.  The game stopped working and stopped
being supported many years ago.

To those of you who may remember it, is there anything like it now?

The most regretful thing about my experience with Aurify is that if I had
not updated my 3GS to iOS 4.0, I would still be enjoying it, today.  As it
turned out, I did update to iOS 4.0 and by the time I realized the
incompatibility problem, it was too late to return to iOS 3.1.3.  I still
have my 3GS and it continues to work just fine, even after all these years,
a testament to Steve Jobbs and Apple, no doubt.

Also, aside from chess, does anyone know of any VoiceOver accessible or
self-voicing board games for iOS such as monopoly?

Personally, I am not a fan of narrative games or games of violence so am
looking for a fun, happy, game that is easy to play.

Thank you,

Mark

Re: Cribbage

[Kim Samco]

Hi Richard,

I didn't notice what you did.  What I'm talking about is when you are pegging 
(you know, working your way to 31) the opponent's card is not announced.  The 
current total is announced but if a ten card was last played  youdon't know 
what it was (10, jack, queen, king) without flicking up to look.

Did you experience this too?  I've dinked around in settings but there doesn't 
seem to be a solution there.

Kim

Hello,
1) has anyone noticed the enhanced US Siri voice crackles just like the 
Enhanced Samantha? Further to that, anyone noticed the way she lags? When using 
braille screen input, uncontracted 6 dot, she said nothing, I typed quick, and 
she is lagging that bad, that it was if I disabled keyboard echo. Other siris 
also have bugs, but this bug, this, is beyond everything. LOL, friends on 
IMessage were asking what I meant, since she couldn't catch up. Anyone else 
notices it, before accessibil...@apple.com receives the love letter about lags? 
Thanks for the feedback!!!

RE: BARD update

[Richard Turner]

Also, when you double tap on the sleep timer button, the first time you get, 15 
minutes, double tap again and it goes up by 15 minute increments each time 
until 60, then Chapter, then off.
Having the sleep timer set to go off at the end of a chapter might be useful at 
times.
The only thing I wish they had done was made it so the book didn't start 
playing until you set your time and then hit the play button.
Now, it starts playing as soon as you hit the sleep timer button.
But, at least they added it and it looks like it is going to be very useful.

Cribbage Pro response

[Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.]

Hi,

I forwarded Richard's note to the developer of Cribbage Pro as he suggested.

I received the following response, which sounds like others will receive this, 
too.

Hi, we have heard recently from a few others on this same suggestion and 
understand the need for it to really make the game more easily playable. We 
will be sending them this same response as well. We will look at what we can do 
to add the last card played to the "count is now" announcement. Since the 
timing of those announcements can be a little tricky to get right without one 
talking over the other, I can't promise it will happen quickly as it will 
involve some testing under various conditions to make sure we don't break the 
chain of announcements under other conditions. Thanks for your patience as we 
work through that and get the next update out.

Sincerely,
Fuller Systems Support

locking the screen or not locking the screen in landscape or portrait is the question

[Regina Alvarado]

Since we were talking about the orientation of the screen, what would be the 
advantages of not locking the screen either in portrait or landscape? I always 
had the screen locked in portrait, but now I am wondering if apps that run in 
landscape (which overrides the lock) would be better if lock was not on. Thanks.

Re: to don breda

[Christopher Chaltain]

When I want to capture an email address for someone on this list, I use 
the forward option and copy it out of the body of the resulting message. 
I know it's a bit of work, but it's less work than asking for an address 
on list.
Maybe Don and Rich should also be including their email addresses in 
their messages to each other on list. That might short circuit this 
thread more quickly.

Re: locking the screen or not locking the screen in landscape or portrait is the question

[Alan Paganelli]

Landscape mode for example gives you a larger size typing screen useful if you 
aren't a hunt and peck typist.  For example, on my iPad Air in landscape mode, 
my fingers can type faster because they aren't all cramped up.  On my iPhone 5s 
even turning the screen to landscape doesn't help all that much because the 
typing keys are still cramped.

Re: Article: How to use your iPhone EarPods like a pro

[Christopher Chaltain]

It took me to a page which was just a discussion thread on people 
bashing Apple's ear pods. You have to scroll past the advertisements. 
I'm not a fan of such negative bashing, so I didn't find it too useful 
to me.

Sorry, Christopher. My shortened URL went to the comments page, which I did not 
intend  for it to do.

I agree with you about the negative comments which had nothing to do with the 
article.

Re: Looking for a ring tone app

[Meagan]

Document hi Jen,

Your ringtones will be saved in your saved ringtones folder. If you click on 
the menu button in the upper left-hand corner of your iPhone, you'll see a 
whole bunch of menu options including ringtones wallpapers notifications one of 
the options under this menu is saved ringtones that's where your ringtones go. 
They will not play in this menu. Do you get them on your phone, you have to 
look at the help option which is in the menu. It will tell you underneath the 
category how to download a ringtone, or downloading stuff, to go to a website 
where you will install software on your computer that will sync your ringtones 
from zedge to iTunes. You have to install the software,  then select the scan 
QR code option from the menu. Then you have to get a sighted person to help you 
scan the code. I'm visually impaired and can't do it. After that, your computer 
will hopefully recognize dead. After that you just sync your iPhone and your 
new ringtones will be. Where normal Ringtones go in sounds.

I hope this helps.

Re: Cannot successfully go between two phone calls

Hi, yes, you do still have to hide the keypad. God bless, Wren Langley. PS. I 
had trouble with call waiting also, and then just out of nowhere and all of a 
sudden it started working. I can explain it, and I don't know why or what 
caused it to work. Good luck to you.

[Wren Langley]

Hi all ever since I updated the American Heritage dictionary all I get when I 
open the dictionary is a button that says empty list I can't make it do 
anything. Does anyone have any suggestions that I could try. I tried the three 
finger swipe up and down and I tried the three finger swipe from side to side 
as if the phone were in landscape mode to see if I could get it to work but 
nothing would work. God bless, Wren

Fantastical 2.5.1

[Richard Turner]

For those who had the problem of the calendar jumping back in time when you
open it, that problem is gone for me with this latest version.

That wasn't mentioned in the update notes, but it is working fine for me on
three different devices.  Before 2.5.1, it happened with all three devices.

I just wrote Flexibits and thanked them for the fix whether they realized it
was fixed or not.

Don't know if I’m missing something, but I can only find the comments, not the

Hi Nicki,

Below is the article to which I sent a lousy link in a previous post:

How to use your iPhone EarPods like a pro  By Christian Zibreg  Oct 16, 2015,

EarPods pro tips
Those funky headphones that came with your iPhone—EarPods with Remote and Mic 
they’re called—only have 3 buttons but boy do they perform a surprising number 
of functions beyond volume control. And with built-in mic, your EarPods can 
make and receive phone calls and control media playback.
Moreover, you can use them for recording voice memos, interacting with Siri 
hands-free, VoIP calling in apps like Skype and more, all with a pinch of the 
cord. Wait, I need this article to tell me how to plug my EarPods and listen to 
music?
We’re not saying you’re not familiar with your EarPods. But as with other 
things in life, there are always new tricks to be learned. This post will 
hopefully help you master your EarPods like a pro.
In this article, we’ll tell you all the cool things your EarPods can do, from 
rich playback control and controlling Siri to switching calls on the fly, using 
VoiceOver and so forth. We’ll also discuss EarPods compatibility, talk about 
keeping your headset in pristine condition and lay out sound advice for using 
your headset responsibly.
Your Apple headset, or any other Bluetooth headset or headphones,can be used to 
listen to music, videos, audiobooks, podcasts and games. But the EarPods go 
much further than that. Let’s get started with the basics so everyone is on the 
same page.
EarPods buttons
The EarPods with Remote and Mic are outfitted with built-in microphone for 
making calls, controlling your music playback and more. They also sport an 
integrated inline remote with volume up and down buttons. There’s also a third 
button called the center button, which does all the magic.

The EarPods with Remote and Mic are bundled with all iPods and iPhones from the 
iPhone 5 onward, but not with iPads. A higher-quality version, the Apple In-Ear 
Headphones with Remote and Mic, are available independently, for $79.
Needless to say, third-party headphones will support your Apple gadgets, and 
most other devices for that matter, without any issues.
How to control media playback with EarPods You can use your EarPods to listen 
to music and videos and control media playback. And with iOS 9, your headset is 
even smarter. When you plug in your headphones, iOS 9’s Proactive assistant 
will recognize that you might want to play an album you started earlier.
Like magic, your music will be ready to play straight from the Lock screen (you 
might need to swipe the Music icon up from the lower left corner to open the 
Music app). To control media playback with your EarPods, memorize the following 
shortcuts.
◾ Increase playback volume: Press the + button.
◾ Decrease playback volume: Press the – button.
◾ Play or pause a song or video: Press the center button once. Press again to 
resume playback.
◾ Skip to the next song or chapter: Press the center button twice quickly.
◾ Return to the previous song or chapter: Press the center button three times 
quickly.
◾ Fast-forward: Press the center button twice quickly and hold.
◾ Rewind: Press the center button three times quickly and hold.
◾ Record a voice memo: Launch Voice Memos and press the center button. Press it 
again to pause or resume.
How to use EarPods as camera shutter
You can use your headphones to take images and capture video in iOS’s stock 
Camera app, or in third-party camera apps that supports using the volume 
control to take images.
◾ Take a photo: Press the center button once to snap a photo.
◾ Start/stop recording a video: Press the center button once to start video 
capture. Press it again to stop recording.
If you own an Apple Watch, you can also use the Digital Crown to trigger the 
shutter remotely in third-party camera apps on your iPhone.
How to use Siri with EarPods
There’s nothing more convenient than conversing with Siri hands-free. Not 
needing to pull an iPhone out of your pocket to interact with Siri is also a 
potential life-saver when you’re driving.
To talk to Siri via your EarPods, use the following shortcuts.
◾ Summon Siri: Press and hold the center button, then make your request.
◾ Continue a conversation with Siri: Press and hold the center button each time 
you want to talk.
◾ Adjust the volume for Siri: Use the volume buttons while you’re interacting 
with Siri.
To control when Siri listens instead of letting her notice when you stop 
talking, simply continue to hold down the center button while you speak, and 
release it when you finish.

How to answer or make phone calls with EarPods With advanced functions like 
switching to an incoming or on-hold call and other features, all you need is 
your EarPods—your iPhone may stay in your pocket.
◾ Increase phone call volume: Press the + button.
◾ Decrease phone call volume: Press the – button.
◾ Answer an incoming call: Press the center button once to answer.
◾ Decline an incoming 

Question about BARD update

[Nicki keck]

What does that improved magic tap response mean?  I was hoping it meant they
fixed the issues with the 2-finger double tap not always working, but a
friend said that wasn't it, so was wondering what the magic tap thing means.

Re: Siri and Earpods or other headphones

[Woody Anna Dresner]

Hi Richard,

Are you using the home button to activate Siri rather than the clicker? I tried 
using the clicker at one time, but I think that when I did that, my hand 
blocked the mic, so Siri didn't work well. Once I started using the Home button 
to activate Siri, I stopped having trouble being understood by Siri.

Best,
Anna
