Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

Yes so I encourage anyone who relies on a bluetooth keyboard to think 
twice before purchasing the new Apple TV. At least the third generation 
will be around for the forseeable future.

This leads me to another question which i have pondered for a while now, is 
there by chance another twitter application for the Mac accessible enough to 
use and that supports modern features of Twitter? I feel that Nightowl is

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread chris
The podcast said the remote iOS app works on the new Apple TV, just not 
bluetooth keyboards. To be honest they will have to include it as even 
without VoiceOver enabled one would still have to swipe through the 
entire keyboard and press on the touchpad to insert. So even for a 
sighted user it's a bit long winded.

But seriously, they do need to bring back bluetooth keyboard support, or at the 
very least, the ability to use the remote iOS app.

You have to enter your password for the first download yes, but the TV

Since I didn't know that the remote would behave in the way it did I

there wouldn't really ever be a situation where someone else would be
alone with the TV in my flat.

In my opinion, the Os, poticually Siri leaves a lot to be desired at
the moment, not to mention that there are some very obvious VO bugs
that really should have been fixed before release.
On a somewhat related note, I've found that if you keep the new remote
in your pocket it will sometimes activate various things as you walk
about. Yesterday I was tidying my bedroom with the remote in my pocket
and as a result, unbeknownst to me, the Apple TV (which is located in
my sitting room) purchased a film. Unfortunately the first I knew of
said purchase was when the film started playing, by which time it was
too late.

Cheers,
Ben.

Sorry about that. I wasn't aware an update was forthcoming. Where did

Yes so I encourage anyone who relies on a bluetooth keyboard to think
twice before purchasing the new Apple TV. At least the third generation
will be around for the forseeable future.

posting photos and posting to groups on facebook

2015-11-01 Thread Stephanie
Hi all,
I'm about to start a new job soon, and as part of my role I will need to post 
to facebook. Typically, the post will be text with a photo attached. They will 
be posted to facebook groups.
Now, I'd worked out how to save a photo. I'd worked out how to post it on my 
wall. But I cant post to groups.  How do I post photo to groups.
Also, is there a way of posting to several groups at once?
Lastly, when I did save the photo how do I exit back in to mmessenger app. I 
had to go to the app switcher and close the app.
Thanks for any help.
Steph

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Brian and all, I agree with you. The term half baked Apples comes to mind at 
the moment. It has huge potential, and I'm sure it is going to be really good, 
but to me it's not even feeling like a 1.0 product right now. On the third gen, 
we used to use the Radio app, for listening to Internet radio stations 
including the one I manage, Mushroom FM. Apple hasn't included it with this 
release, and there's no equivalent app in the App Store that I've been able to 
find.
We listen to a lot of podcasts on the Apple TV. But Apple hasn't even done a 
version of its own Podcasts app, even though there was one for the third 
generation.
For both of these issues, Airplay is a work-around, but then you're involving 
another device, which in my view is a step backwards. Hopefully Downcast or 
Overcast will come to the platform soon for Podcasts, and TuneIn Radio would be 
great for Mushroom FM and similar stations.
When, in the podcast, it became clear to me that Bluetooth keyboard support is 
not in the software right now, I consoled myself by thinking that I could use 
the excellent Remote app for iOS and Watch OS, and control the TV that way. But 
you can't, Apple's own Remote app doesn't yet work with Apple's own brand new 
Apple TV.
It's also curious to me that despite the great storage and fast chip, you get 
no choice of voice in VO, unless you change your region.
On the third-party side, we've lost Netflix with audio description, and Hulu 
isn't accessible.
And as Sieghard has said in this thread and I pointed out in my podcast, Siri 
isn't supported here in New Zealand, even though New Zealand English is a 
choice in iOS.
I think all these things may well be addressed, but if you have a functional 
third generation unit and enjoy it for some of these functions, you might want 
to hang on a bit. For those who think it's fun to be on the cutting edge, this 
product shows a lot of promise and I'm sure it's going to get very good over 
time.

2015-11-01 Thread Christopher Chaltain
As with all Gmail folders, this is just a label added to your messages. 
It's not an additional copy of your message.


Gmail is flagging the messages it thinks is important to you based on 
who it's from, what it says and how you've handled similar messages in 
the past. I Googled this and there is a ton of information out there on 
how to remove this or change what Gmail considers is important.


Personally, I plan on looking into this at some time because I'm always 
looking for a more efficient way to handle my email, but I haven't done 
this yet, so for now, I just ignore the Important folder.

Hi all,

I meant to ask this for ages but haven't done so. I noticed quite early on when

yesterday I deleted a lot of messages and they have just come back again! Smiley

Now, please tell me, just what goes on here! Anyone got any good solutions, 
apart from forgetting that the folder exists and simply ignoring it!

I look forward to hearing from you if you have a solution. I don't think you 
can delete the folder, by the way, in case anyone comes up with that one. If 
you know it can be done, of course I will be glad to hear about it!

That would match Jonathan's experience when he tried to pair a Bluetooth

really appears that Apple has not added Bluetooth keyboard support. Let's all 
write to accessibil...@apple.com and request they fix this, after all, I don't

No it's not an accessibility thing as even sighted consumers would use a 
bluetooth keyboard for typing just like they would on an iOS device.

I'm not so sure it's coming, since I haven't seen an official
announcement from Apple, but it definitely won't be coming if Apple
doesn't know it's being asked for.

I don't see this as an accessibility issue though, so I'd be more
inclined to ask for it using Apple's normal feedback channels.

Hello Christopher and Carol,
In gmail, there are options such as delete, mark read, flag archive delete 
and more.  I have not explored the more button yet.  But when I click on 
archive, all the archived messages go into the important folder.  As 
Christopher said other messages go in there as well.  So, I'm going to have to

Re: How to Quote a Tweet on iPhone or Mac

2015-11-01 Thread Candie Doy
Hello all. Apologies for this response being more off-topic. I wanted to help, 
but I can’t remember which, or how many, people wanted to know how to retweet 
with comment using Night Owl, so I can’t reply to them individually. If you 
look in the ’tweet’ menu, you’ll see the ‘retweet with comment’ option. The 
keyboard command to do this is command-option-v. I have also looked for an 
accessible twitter app, but this is the only one I found. I’ve learned the hard 
way that the app store on the Mac is not as useful as the one on the iPhone. 
Applevis.com  has become my favourite website. :-)
If anyone knows of a helpful list like this one for Mac users, please let me 
know off-list.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I'm not sure anyone needs to calm down. No one seems to upset over this 
to me.


I'm not so sure it's coming, since I haven't seen an official 
announcement from Apple, but it definitely won't be coming if Apple 
doesn't know it's being asked for.


I don't see this as an accessibility issue though, so I'd be more 
inclined to ask for it using Apple's normal feedback channels.

I have the new apple TV. I have tried three different bluetooth keyboards. 
Neither keyboard would pair. As a matter of fact, the apple TV didn’t appear to 
even recognize that I was trying to pair a device.

The 

Does the Apple Remote app work for the new Apple TV 4th generation?

2015-11-01 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Hi,

Awaiting my new Apple TV to arrive this week.

I've never used the Apple Remote app. Has that worked well with earlier 
generations of Apple TV? The description of the app today from the app store 
said it only works with 3rd generation and earlier. Has anyone heard if an 
Apple TV Remote app will be made available for the new TV?

Thanks, Keith

Whats App on two iPhones

2015-11-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello List,

 

I am curious if anybody knows more about why it seems not possible to use
Whats App on two iPhones. I have my new iPhone 6S, but I also still have my
5S which is unlocked and which I will most likely keep until March so I can
use it for my trip to the Philippines. Anyhow, I had of course installed
Whats App on my new 6S and set it up. Everything works fine, but just this
morning I was streaming some music via Airplay to my Sonos system and I
wanted to use Whats App to send a voice message to a friend. Anyhow, I
reached for my 5S and when I opened Whats App it told me that this phone
wasn't verified. So I put in my phone number and it ended up sending a text
with a verification code to my 6S, I entered the code and everything worked
fine on the 5S and I was able to send my message.

A bit later I went back to my 6S and now Whats App here said it wasn't
verified and I had to go through the process all over, send a new
verification message and so on. This time, however, I was told I couldn't
verify it right now and I had to wait another 23 minutes before trying it
again so it seems that you half to wait about 30 minutes in between
verifying a second time.

Anyhow, my question is why I can't simplyuse Whats App on two devices. I
should mention that my 5S is only connected to WiFi right now and has no SIM
so maybe that is the reason?

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

I don't see anything wrong with your advice. It's still true and sound. 
You might want to ammend it by saying an update is forthcoming, but 
until it's actually here, and we know it fixes these issues, I still 
think this is good advice.

RE: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Daniel,

They should leave out Bluetooth keyboard support because they want people to 
use SIRI when it appears in some countries SIRI on the Apple TV is not 
available, example, New Zealand. I don't know about Australia and Europe, but 
if they have Bluetooth support and they support all sorts of third-party game 
controllers not having support for Bluetooth keyboards makes little sense to me.

Plus, they’re trying to push the universal search experience with Siri, so I 
can kind of understand why they didn’t add it, even though yes, it is rather 
annoying, I’m not saying it isn’t. But from Apple’s point of view, they want 
people to use the Siri functionality more. And also, they added a recent 
keyboard that contains all the email addresses and account names you’ve typed 
before, so to be fair, you’d only need to enter your passwords with the

Re: anyone else having trouble with using ApplePay on the apple store app?

I called my bank, there are no problems there. They have me registered with 
Apple Pay and see no difficulties. Still a maddening mystery!

 online to make sure that my Apple ID is correct. I have re-set network

 When I attempt to purchase using touch id, I get “error image”, which

 Any additional suggestions?

Re: "OFF topic, slightly

2015-11-01 Thread Casey

Hi do you happen to know the model number of your router?
Also how easy is the router to configure with a screen reader and does 
it have A web page to log in to so that you can adjust all of its 
settings and how exactly do you log in to the router?
Then if you get the same brand of extender then let say if you have your 
router down stairs and you plug in the extender up stairs will it still 
boost the signal?

Also how do you configure the extender once you plug it in?
So you get it up and running?

Hello Regina,

I am not a big fan of using ISP routers, wireless or wired.

Because I prefer to use my Windows computer to manage my home network, I use a 
Cisco router, combined with a Cisco extender.  The extender costs about $20, 
from Best Buy and is, of course, wireless.

Because the router and the extender are made by the same company, configuration 
between the two devices is virtually automatic.

I have the MODEM and router upstairs and the tiny little extender simply 
plugged into an outlet, down stairs.  As a consequence, I receive 96% 
connection from anywhere in the house.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Daniel Miller
Keep in mind, tvOS is a first-generation OS, even though it’s 95% based on an 
OS that’s been around for years. Of course there will be kinks, whether or not 
someone wants to be an early adopter and go through the growing pains is up to 
each individual.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Christopher Chaltain
True, I saw that message, but hearing from someone that they heard from 
someone that something is coming soon is not the same thing as an 
official announcement from Apple. Apple is a large company, so I'm not 
sure every representative in an Apple store knows what's going on with 
the test and release teams in Apple for all of Apple's products. I would 
not recommend something based on what an employee in an Apple store told 
me. I'd wait until I knew it was available, it worked and it was 
accessible. This isn't just true for Apple, but any large company.

I don't see anything wrong with your advice. It's still true and sound.
You might want to ammend it by saying an update is forthcoming, but
until it's actually here, and we know it fixes these issues, I still
think this is good advice.

the screen.  However, they do not interfear with listening to the game (or talk 
or whatever I am listening to).  This video thing is different because when it 
pops up there are two audio tracks running at the same time.

A person on another list said that while he was in the Apple Store, he spoke 
with a rep and they told him that an update is soon to be released that 
would bring back support for bluetooth keyboards for the Apple TV 4th

I don't see anything wrong with your advice. It's still true and sound.
You might want to ammend it by saying an update is forthcoming, but
until it's actually here, and we know it fixes these issues, I still
think this is good advice.

twice before purchasing the new Apple TV. At least the third generation
will be around for the forseeable future.

Re: Does music purchased on iTunes store on the phone automatically go to my mac?

2015-11-01 Thread Grant
If you are using iTunes Match on both devices, the purchases should show up on 
your Mac automatically. Check the iTunes library on your Mac to see if the new 
purchases are there. An easy place to look is the “recently added” playlist. 
You may have to tell iTunes on your Mac to download the tracks. To do this, 
open the context menu (VO+SHIFT+M) while one or multiple songs are selected and 
select “make available offline”. This will cause the tracks to download. 
There’s a setting in the iTunes preferences (COMMAND+COMMA to open the 
preferences window) where you can specify that you want all newly purchased 
tracks to automatically download on your Mac. This option is under the store 
tab, and may already be selected. If it is not checked, checking the box will 
only apply to future purchases but not the songs you’ve already bought.

Hope this helps,

Grant

The important file listed in Gmail!

2015-11-01 Thread 'Carol Pearson' via VIPhone
Hi all,

I meant to ask this for ages but haven't done so. I noticed quite early on when 
using Gmail with the phone that there was an important folder created. It seems 
to me that everything ends up in it, whether you delete items or not. In fact, 
yesterday I deleted a lot of messages and they have just come back again! Smiley

Now, please tell me, just what goes on here! Anyone got any good solutions, 
apart from forgetting that the folder exists and simply ignoring it!

I look forward to hearing from you if you have a solution. I don't think you 
can delete the folder, by the way, in case anyone comes up with that one. If 
you know it can be done, of course I will be glad to hear about it!

Let's talk about imojies... specifically how to find them!!!

2015-11-01 Thread Jen Barr
I wish there was an easier way to go through the imojie list! There are so many 
by the time I find what I want... I forget! lol. I wish there was a way to 
search for them... like an edit box before the imoji keyboard! Sure, when I 
find the ones I want... they go into my frequently used category... but still! 
Also, is there a way to remove ones that are in the frequently used list? It's 
nice to have so many of them... but sheesh! lol. At least sighted people can 
just glance all at once... we have to spend an hour flicking through them. 
Ok... rant over. (smile)

Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

I'm guessing this isn't wifi calling but rather Settings -> Phone -> 
Calls on Other Devices. This allows you to receive calls on other 
devices on the same network.

Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread Mary Otten
OK, you are right. It is a separate setting. But when I want to know is this. 
Since your iPhone doesn't have to be anywhere near you when you make these 
calls, if you don't have Wi-Fi calling enabled on your iPhone, how on earth 
does your noncellular iPad mini make this call? Clearly, it is using Wi-Fi. How 
does that work?

Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread Alex Hall
How near is near? It works over wifi and bluetooth, letting your phone be quite 
far away--in another room, for instance--and it'll still work. My understanding 
of wifi calling is that it relies on your cell provider, but simply uses wifi 
to carry the signal instead of a cell tower. You still need a cellular account 
and a device from your carrier to do it.

Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread Mary Otten
Nobody was questioning the need for having a cell account. I was only saying 
that I have iPhone with T-Mobile that has Wi-Fi calling. I have an iPad mini 
two which has no cellular capability. With the iPhone locked, I can make calls 
to landline's using an iPad mini over Wi-Fi. I can't see how that can be done 
if I didn't have Wi-Fi calling. Further, I recall seeing a T-Mobile promotion 
for Wi-Fi calling saying that if you left your Phone at home, say, but found 
yourself in a place where you had Wi-Fi connectivity and a device that you had 
okayed this calling from other devices through, you would be able to make calls 
on that device. So I suppose what I should do is leave my phone home and go to 
a nearby coffee shop where my iPad has the Wi-Fi network and see if I can make 
a call from there.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Brian Fischler
Hi Jonathan and all,

Well put Jonathan. I bought this for the living room and if it only had optical 
it would go in the bedroom and the third gen would get prime living room as I 
bought this primarily for described video on Netflix so to say I am a little 
pissed at Netflix is an understatement. Could you imagine if Netflix had left 
close captioning out of the app the world would be livid but no mention 
anywhere in the mainstream about Netflix leaving described video out. overall I 
am not reading stellar reviews of this by the main stream and considering 
sighted people have tons of other options like Roku, Amazon Fire and others 
Apple really laid an egg so far with this. Seriously this 4th gen took them 
years to come up with? Seriously, it is shocking how much stuff they left out. 
At least I am getting to listen to the Mets radio feed for the World Series 
through the MLB app. So that is something.

Re: Another way to enter contacts?

Thank you for the file.  I have played with it, and have a couple of questions.
Since there is only one edit field for the name, I am assuming that there is no 
way of making it where it will fill the first name edit field in contacts, then 
the second.  Or, where it will fill the company name edit field?

Thanks,

Chris

using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread candyrlowe
Hello everyone,
I have a 5 s which I am using only as a device while i use my iPhone 6 as my 
phone.  I have Verizon as my carrier, but, this 5 s is an ATT phone.  When I 
receive a telephone call, both phones ring.  I assume this is some type of WiFi 
call, but, I can not make a call from the 5 s.  I realize that it has no 
service, but, I am able to answer calls with it.  I am able to make facetime 
calls with the 5 s.  Can anyone explain this to me?  When I try to make a call, 
it says I have no service.  I understand this, but, how is it that I can 
receive calls?  I am just curious.

Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread Alex Hall
Sounds like call forwarding is enabled. When you get a call on the 6, it causes 
any other devices on your wifi network, signed into your iCloud account, to 
ring as well. Macs, iPads, iPods, or Apple Watches would all do the same thing 
if present and activated. That's also why you can't make calls on the 5s; it 
can get forwarded calls from the 6, but can't initiate anything on its own 
using the phone part. However, you should be able to use FaceTime and call 
other Apple users or regular phone numbers and, as above, your 6 will be the 
actual caller, but your 5s will be sort of a fancy speakerphone. Calling other 
Apple users is possible because that uses wifi only, not a cell carrier.

Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread Mary Otten
Also, depending on who your cell carrier is and how their Wi-Fi calling works, 
and if you have it set up, and set up to allow other devices to do it, you 
might actually be able to make calls on your old 5S. For instance, the other 
day I made a call using my iPad mini to a regular landline to a friend of mine 
who lives back east. My carrier is T-Mobile, and I have Wi-Fi calling set up. 
But I definitely made the call by telling Siri to call my friends phone number 
on my iPad mini, and it went through fine using Wi-Fi calling.

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Mary Otten
Well, I have seen a couple of reviews by sighted people in the mainstream press 
commenting on how difficult it is to use the on-screen keyboard with its new 
layout, where the letters are in a long long row. So, I suspect they will be 
doing something, whether that is to have Bluetooth keyboard support or make the 
remote app for the watch and the iPhone work, I don't know. But the way it is 
now is not satisfactory even for mainstream cited reviewer's. So something will 
happen

As with many sounds it's hard to describe in an e-mail.  It's sort of between a

I think as more developers get a hold of the AppleTV it will get better, but 
the fact that you cannot pair a bluetooth keyboard, that Netflix left described 
video out as a option, and that typing is dreadful I would not run out and buy

RE: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
It is my understanding that you can only have a maximum of 3 
controllers/remotes connected to the Apple TV at any time. That means 
especially in families with kids where playing games may be an important part 
of having an Apple TV, it is my guess that these 3 controllers would be the 
remote that comes with the Apple TV and then maybe a couple of third-party game 
controllers.
While this may not be an accessibility feature in the strict sense, I really 
wonder how many sighted people actually have and would use a Bluetooth keyboard 
on an Apple TV. I do of course know people who use a keyboard with an iPad at 
home, but I don't think I know a single sighted iPhone user who uses a 
Bluetooth keyboard with an iPhone. Sighted users get to be quite fast at typing 
on the virtual keyboard especially now with predictive typing and I am afraid 
we may project our needs to the vast majority of users who would never even 
consider that it might be easier to type on a Bluetooth keyboard. I am sure 
Apple will make improvements to the on-screen typing experience and the fact is 
that once one has set up their accounts with user names and passwords, there 
probably is not that much typing required. I know how my wife uses our current 
Apple TV and she rarely types anything, when she is looking for something on 
Netflix she just browses the categories and even if she types, she can see the 
results popping up as she types and often she finds what she wants after typing 
4 or 5 letters.


Best regards,
Sieghard

No it's not an accessibility thing as even sighted consumers would use a 
bluetooth keyboard for typing just like they would on an iOS device.

RE: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Well said, as usual, Jonathan. I think for those with a third-party Apple TV 
waiting a bit is the way to go or get the fourth gen Apple TV and enjoy it for 
what it offers and use it side by side with the third gen. But for many like me 
who never upgraded from the second gen to the third gen I think getting the new 
Apple TV is a no-brainer. The second gen Apple TV doesn’t support Netflix audio 
descriptions anyways and there is no Youtube app any more so even though the 
new Apple TV needs some major feature additions, I think it’s not much of a 
step back compared to the second gen with maybe the exception of Bluetooth 
keyboards, but maybe as somebody pointed out, this really is coming very soon 
although if it were coming within days or a week, why ship them without. 
Somehow I think Apple is not going to push an update before many customers have 
even received their unit.

Despite everything I read and hear from the early reviews, I am excited that 
mine has also shipped now and the UPS tracking information says it will be 
delivered next Friday so maybe it’s even going to be Thursday and definitely 
it’s earlier than November 11 to 13 which is what my order said originally.

I am really surprised the there is no native Podcast app or that the remote app 
isn’t working with the Apple TV. I just looked it up on the App Store and it 
says:

 

Note: Remote is only compatible with Apple TV (3rd generation or earlier)

 

It shows the app was last updatedin April, so hopefully we’ll see an update to 
that app very soon which will add support for the fourth gen Apple TV. It also 
appears that the reviews for the Remote app are dismal, the latest version gets 
2 Stars. It’s interesting how Apple makes some stuff and has some services 
which work so well and are so easy to use and other products and services they 
just can’t seem to get right.

Sieghard

Subject: Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

 

Hi Brian and all, I agree with you. The term half baked Apples comes to mind at 
the moment. It has huge potential, and I'm sure it is going to be really good, 
but to me it's not even feeling like a 1.0 product right now. On the third gen, 
we used to use the Radio app, for listening to Internet radio stations 
including the one I manage, Mushroom FM. Apple hasn't included it with this 
release, and there's no equivalent app in the App Store that I've been able to 
find.

We listen to a lot of podcasts on the Apple TV. But Apple hasn't even done a 
version of its own Podcasts app, even though there was one for the third 
generation.

For both of these issues, Airplay is a work-around, but then you're involving 
another device, which in my view is a step backwards. Hopefully Downcast or 
Overcast will come to the platform soon for Podcasts, and TuneIn Radio would be 
great for Mushroom FM and similar stations.

When, in the podcast, it became clear to me that Bluetooth keyboard support is 
not in the software right now, I consoled myself by thinking that I could use 
the excellent Remote app for iOS and Watch OS, and control the TV that way. But 
you can't, Apple's own Remote app doesn't yet work with Apple's own brand new 
Apple TV.

It's also curious to me that despite the great storage and fast chip, you get 
no choice of voice in VO, unless you change your region.

On the third-party side, we've lost Netflix with audio description, and Hulu 
isn't accessible.

And as Sieghard has said in this thread and I pointed out in my podcast, Siri 
isn't supported here in New Zealand, even though New Zealand English is a 
choice in iOS.

I think all these things may well be addressed, but if you have a functional 
third generation unit and enjoy it for some of these functions, you might want 
to hang on a bit. For those who think it's fun to be on the cutting edge, this 
product shows a lot of promise and I'm sure it's going to get very good over 
time.

iPhone 6 unfamiliar sound

2015-11-01 Thread Kim Samco
Hello,

I'm still getting acquainted with the iPhone 6 and there is a sound that I 
haven't herd on any of my other iPhones.

As with many sounds it's hard to describe in an e-mail.  It's sort of between a 
swoosh and the sound a pterodactyl. might make  I looked in the sound settings 
and only saw the sounds that I'm familiar with.

Can anyone tell me what this sound means and if I can get rid of it.  

Oh...I haven't really been able to pinpoint exactly when it does it.  I guess 
sometimes when I close a folder and/or app.

THanks,

Kim

Re: The important file listed in Gmail!

Thanks Connie.

It's a bit of a minefield and I'm just going to leave well alone for the 
moment, especially as Chris has mentioned that they're only the labels 
in Important and not the messages themselves, so (I guess) not taking up 
extra room etc.


I don't want this to become "off topic", because I raised it as I 
thought it had direct use on the iPhone and not on other devices; but 
since I've now learned this is not the case, I think I should cease any 
further comments on the subject here.

As with all Gmail folders, this is just a label added to your messages.
It's not an additional copy of your message.

Gmail is flagging the messages it thinks is important to you based on who it's

Googled this and there is a ton of information out there on how to remove this 
or change what Gmail considers is important.

Personally, I plan on looking into this at some time because I'm always looking

for now, I just ignore the Important folder.

An option if you want RCA or Toslink audio out from a new fourth generation Apple TV

2015-11-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello,

 

Many are regretting Apple taking away the optical audio out port which was
on previous Apple TV's. I just read an article which mentions a device which
can extract the audio from HDMI and send it to a receiver or amplifier
either via digital optical (Toshiba Link or "Toslink") or analogue RCA
connection.

It is my understanding that you can still connect an HDMI cable from the
extracter to your TV as well and simply change modes to pass the HDMI signal
through to your TV if you want to do so.

Note that I don't own the device and cannot vouch for how well it works.
Hopefully somebody will post a review if they decide to buy it and give it a
try. I assume since it comes from Amazon that it would have a generous
return policy should it not work as advertised.

 

Below is the Amazon.com link for the device which costs $40 (I shortened it
because it wrapped and probably would have not worked for some people):

Re: Bluetooth keyboard and Apple fourth-generation TV

2015-11-01 Thread Mary Otten
As Jonathan pointed out, Siri is not available everywhere. Furthermore, again 
based on mainstream reviews, it is apparent that the universal Siri search is 
not all that it's cracked up to be.  sometimes it is a big fat bust. And in 
such cases, you would want another way of telling the device what it was you 
wanted. And if you paid a premium for this device, you would probably not like 
it that you were having to hunt and peck around a great big long row of letters 
to get that search job done. Apple charges more than everybody else. And people 
expect to get Quality in return. That includes well-thought-out design. 
Software, not just nice-looking hardware. You don't buy potential, unless it's 
known to be an early edition, and you're getting a discount. But that's not 
happening here. I am looking forward to see how this AppleTV develops. I hope 
it does great, because they are the only one that is really accessible. But not 
yet. I'm not giving them my money until they give me the product I should get 
for my money.

A Little on Cisco Routers

2015-11-01 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Casey,

The model of the router is, for the most part, irrelevant, these days as they 
change so frequently.

What is important is the functionality you seek.  For example, you may simply 
want a basic WiFi router which can cost as little as $25.  On the other hand, 
you may choose to purchase a dual band router which can cost as much as $200.  
I am basing these estimates on Best Buy as of 2 weeks ago, here in southern 
California.  

So, it comes down to what you want and how much you can afford.  

The good news is the following:

1.
The interface to all Cisco routers can be accessed through your preferred web 
browser and are completely VoiceOver and Jaws for Windows accessible.  After 
attaching the router to any computer, via Ethernet cable, from within your 
browser go to http://192.168.1.1 in order to bring up the router's interface.

2.
While the routers ship with an included setup CD, because of the built-in 
server, there really is no need to install it on your computer.

3.
Their customer service is among the best I have ever used.  Virtually all of 
their reps will provide comprehensive support, 24 hours a day.  This is no 
doubt the result of the staggering lawsuit, lost by Linksys, many years ago.

4.
As with the base router, the extenders come in varying flavors, as well.  One 
model will only boost one signal while another model provides dual signal 
boost.  

5.
Once the extender is configured, it is virtually invisible to all devices in 
the area, save the base router.

6.
Should you purchase a Cisco router, I strongly urge you to immediately register 
the device with Cisco and contact their customer service for any assistance.  
They really will take good care of you.  

Oh, one more thing, you must connect the router and/or the extender to a 
computer (using an Ethernet cable) in order to configure it for uce, via the 
web browser.

Good Luck,

Mark

Subject: Re: "OFF topic, slightly

Hi do you happen to know the model number of your router?
Also how easy is the router to configure with a screen reader and does it have 
A web page to log in to so that you can adjust all of its settings and how 
exactly do you log in to the router?
Then if you get the same brand of extender then let say if you have your router 
down stairs and you plug in the extender up stairs will it still boost the 
signal?
Also how do you configure the extender once you plug it in?
So you get it up and running?

ot: features for braille-users with windows-screenreaders

2015-11-01 Thread William Windels
Hello all,

I know that there are many windows-users on this list.
So I would like something ask you, perhaps of topic:
Since braille on mac osx is not so advanced as it is on most windows 
screenreaders, I would like to have a kind of functions/overview of 
braille-features that are available for most windows-screenreaders.

I knew Jaws for windows the best but I have no windows-machine here to search 
for the features.

If someone could give me some links, a featurelist of jaws or other 
screenreaders for windows, this would be great.

Also, personal suggestions of important features are also welcome.
I would send some important information to apple accessibility.
Of course, you can do it also if you find that the braille-support in osx is 
missing some important features…

I suggest you mail me off list: william.wind...@gmail.com.

Thx in advance,

William Windels

Adding contacts in the contact app.

2015-11-01 Thread John J. Fioravanti, Jr.
Hi: When I am adding a contact, after putting in name and number, I go to
the button that says "insert email and add email" I put the email in the
location and save the contact. 

When I look at the contact, the email isn't in the place I put it. Is there
something tricky about the add contact app that I'm missing?

Thanks.

Re: Another way to enter contacts?

2015-11-01 Thread Chris Chaffin
I actually use dropbox instead of emailing the file.
But when you make the pop up window come up, you will just choose open in.  And 
one of the choices will be contacts.
When it opens in contacts, one of the first things is a save button.  Just 
double tap the save button, and it will save the contact information into your 
contacts.

Hope this helps,

Chris

RE: using an iPhone only as a devicee

2015-11-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Mary,

You can make calls with other devices, e.g. an older iPhone without SIM or a 
WiFi only iPad even without WiFi calling. This is the setting Christopher 
mentioned, under Phone > Calls from other devices. The other device or devices 
must be on the same WiFi network as your primary phone and I believe must be 
using the same Apple Id. You are basically using the cellular modem of your 
primary phone as a hotspot for lack of a better word and the call is routed 
through your phone even if it is locked and sitting in another room. You can 
even make calls from your Mac this way and this was introduced I think in iOS 7.
The WiFi calling feature from T-Mobile is similar except as you said you can 
even make a call from your iPad if you are out and about as long as you have 
WiFi access somewhere.
However, your old 5S without SIM receiving calls/ringing at the same time as 
you r new 6S is because of the Calls from other devices setting, if you delete 
your 5S from there it will no longer ring when somebody else calls you.


Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: Re: using an iPhone only as a devicee

Nobody was questioning the need for having a cell account. I was only saying 
that I have iPhone with T-Mobile that has Wi-Fi calling. I have an iPad mini 
two which has no cellular capability. With the iPhone locked, I can make calls 
to landline's using an iPad mini over Wi-Fi. I can't see how that can be done 
if I didn't have Wi-Fi calling. Further, I recall seeing a T-Mobile promotion 
for Wi-Fi calling saying that if you left your Phone at home, say, but found 
yourself in a place where you had Wi-Fi connectivity and a device that you had 
okayed this calling from other devices through, you would be able to make calls 
on that device. So I suppose what I should do is leave my phone home and go to 
a nearby coffee shop where my iPad has the Wi-Fi network and see if I can make 
a call from there.

Does anyone know/can anyone remind me how to create groups within contacts on IPhone/IPad?

2015-11-01 Thread 'Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone
Hi all 

Was just wondering if anyone knows/can remind me how I go about creating groups 
within contacts on my IPhone/IPad? I haven't needed to do so for a while, but 
now I have so many contacts I think I need to start grouping them. So is it 
still possible? 

Thanks.

do you have to deal with a file for each name, or is there a way to get all

Re: Another way to enter contacts?

2015-11-01 Thread Matthew Bullis
OK, I've found the solution. I Googled this, and it's my kind of workaround, 
since I was trained in DOS. Basically just create however many vcf files you 
need, then make sure they are all in an easy-to-find folder. In my case, 
they're all in c:\downloads.

Use Windows R to get the Run dialog box and type cmd. You're now in the command 
prompt.
Because this lands you within the Windows directory, type cd\ to get to the 
root of the C drive.
Then type cd downloads. You'll of course replace the word downloads with 
whatever folder name you need to. You should get a response back that you're in 
the right folder.
type copy *.vcf all.vcf
or whatever you want to call the new .vcf file. This reads all of the files 
that have this extention, and writes one long file with everything in it. Now 
you need only e-mail this one file to your device. Once you click on the 
attachment, the alert will say, for instance, add twelve contacts. Once you get 
past this alert, you can make new contacts or merge. In my case, all will be 
new.

  Hello, just wondering if there's another way than on the phone itself 
to enter contacts? Can it be done within ITunes or another program? 
Alternatively, can I create some file and upload it? As I'm getting an iPhone 
in a few days, and my contacts are not transferrable because they're on an old 
phone, I have about eighty to enter.
  Thanks,
  Matthew
