Re: Kindle once more

[Eva Abbas]

Hello Mary and Russ,

Thank you both so very much for your replies.  I appreciate them a lot.  I 
will tell my nephew that he can just download kindle from the app store and 
we’ll go from there.

God bless

Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

[paras shah]

Yes, braille screen input is a great feature. There are some places where
it does not work. If you are in a multi-line edit field it will not let you
go to the next line. For the most part, I use it as my input method.
It is great for writing short emails.
Thanks!

Re: An issue with my iPhone-6 plus.

[Christopher Chaltain]

Just as an FYI, I had this problem when IOS 9 first came out. Since 
then, I still have it, but it's much more intermittent. I did do a reset 
at one point, but I've updated IOS since then.

up as new phone may be your only choice.

Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

[Brett]

Hi, 

In a multi-line edit field, you can start a new line with iOS braille by doing 
a two finger swipe right. 

Hope this helps,

RE: A STRANGE AND INFURIATING PROBLEM WITH MY 6SHH

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Replace your earphones and the problem will go away. I had this happen to me a 
few times whenever my Apple Earpods were on their last legs so to speak and 
there was some sort of short probably in the remote. I was on a flight once 
back from the Philippines and exactly what you described happened with respect 
to my audio book would start playing without me touching anything (or it would 
stop) etc. I got a new set of Earpods and all was fine.

Subject: A STRANGE AND INFURIATING PROBLEM WITH MY 6SHH

 

Hi all,

 

This is somewhat complex but I'll try to keep facts succinct. ...

 

To give you some background, I recently upgraded to iOS9.2.1 and noticed a 
problem after this. Howver, at about the same time I also had problems 
inserting an iStick, which I succeeded in doing eventually. We also have some 
strange interference with our TV which we think is posssibly an old pair of 
speakers which need replacing. There's also some electronic gadgetry a short 
distance from our sitting-room window which does not belong to us but we 
sometimes wonder if this has caused problems.

 

My problem pnly occurs when using headphones, which I do most of the time as 
Mike is writing nearby at the same time. Often Siri just chimes in, being 
absolutely convinced that I really do want his help! (In desperation I even 
turned him off, reset all connections and then rebooted, being sure to restrict 
Siri so that I had to tap the Home button to ask for his attention. He now does 
not respond to "Hey Siri"  so I'm happy I've done this correctly.

 

However, in the sittingroom with Apple headphones the problem continues. My 
music also starts playing without me wanting it.

 

To add to the complications, we have a set of speakers for our TV in the 
sittingroom that are ageing and are a little faulty and there's also some 
electrical contraption not too far from the window which sometimes appears to 
interfere with our equipment.

 

 

I am thinking that I possibly could have damaged the sockets, or maybe the 
problem has been caused by my volume being too loud. I have adjusted this, 
since some were having problems with the volume settings after an iOS update a 
little while back and I realise this could create a problem. Finally, there's 
also a setting or two I recently altered, so I'll now try to set those once 
again as before. One was the 3D Touch setting which I recently changed to its 
lowest, rather than the set level in the middle.

 

I really don't know how to solve this one. I could go to the Apple Store once I 
have less of a cold and can fit it in, but I'm not sure whether they can really 
track this one down.

 

Does anyone have recommendations as to what I should do now, please?

 

Apologies for this ramble and the amount of information I felt was needed. 
Thanks to those who have read all the way through! I do appreciate this and now 
hope for some useful replies!

Re: MBraille Suggestion, was Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

[Brett]

Wow! I am so glad your MBraille experience is different to mine. I bought it 
before iOS braille was introduced and as a standalone app it works well and 
does have more editing features than iOS braille, but as a third-party 
keyboard, it is the buggiest program I have purchased. There is absolutely no 
support from the author at all. 

For me the three finger swipe right to dismiss the MBraille keyboard never 
works. This is replicatable 100 percent of the time. Seriously, if your 
intrested in braille, learn to use the iOS keyboard and don't waist your money 
on purchasing bugs. I have received better support from apps that were free. 

Cheers, Brett.

Re: MBraille Suggestion, was Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

 keep seeing a lot of flack on the mBraille list about  how flaky some of this 
is,  but I took to it and would prefer this method of 
working  than any other. I haven't bought the feature you describe, but worked 
pretty well the last time I tried it,  which is a

I already had MBraille before the Apple Braille keyboard was released, so I 
have not taken the time to learn to use the Apple 
keyboard very well.  I find it to be not quite as refined as is MBraille, 
although that very well could be due to operator 
incompetence.Also, it does not have the word processing ability of 
MBraille.  If I want to edit anything, I have to use the 
regular Apple keyboard editing features, which are not as easy for me to use as 
those in MBraille.

A few months ago, I purchased the option to use MBraille as a third-party 
keyboard.  At the time, it didn't seem to work very well 
for me as a third-party keyboard, so I forgot about it until last weekend when, 
for some reason which I do not remember now, I 
decided to try it again.  I deleted that emogey  keyboard which I never used, 
and enabled MBraille as a third-party keyboard.  It 
works well. Now, when I am in a text field, I can tap the next keyboard button, 
and although the transition to MBraille is 
occasionally a bit flakey, more often than not, it goes right into MBraille.  I 
write my text, am enable to correct any errors or do

  I am not too keen on using it as an extra keyboard, because it's a bit tricky

end the call voiceover does not talk and I cannot tap anywhere on the screen. 
In order to hang up the call I have to reset the phone. There probably is

Re: Kindle once more

[Russ Kiehne]

Here is how I buy Kindle books on my Ios device:

from the book Kindle for iOS Accessibility Gestures - Quick Reference Guide.epub

You can shop from the Kindle Store using the Safari browser and deliver Kindle 
titles to the Kindle reading app on your iPad, Phone, or iPod touch. Your 
device must be connected to a wireless or data network in order to download 
Kindle content to your Kindle reading app. 
>From the Safari browser, visit the Kindle Store website: 
· iPad: www.amazon.com/ipadkindlestore 
· iPhone or iPad touch: www.amazon.com/kindlemobilestore 
 
1.   Sign in to the Kindle Store with the same Amazon account you used when 
you registered the Kindle reading app. Browse for Kindle titles you want to 
read, and then tap to view the product detail page. 
2.   To send the Kindle title to your device, from the Send wirelessly to 
drop-down menu, select your device. If you don't see your device, make sure you 
signed in with the Amazon account registered to your iPad, iPhone, or iPod 
touch. 
3.   Tip: Tap Try a Sample to download the beginning of a book for free. 
4.   After you purchase content, your titles are delivered to the Kindle 
app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Check your cloud tab.

He does not have to buy a Kindle. He can get the free Kindle app from the app 
store accessed on his iPhone. He downloads that and signs in with his Amazon 
account credentials, then he can buy books on the web. He cannot buy them in 
the Kindle app, because Apple wants a big cut of the price of books. So Amazon 
does not let iPhone app users buy books from within the app can't blame them 
very much for not wanting to give Apple 30% of the cost of the book. But, he 
buys the book on the web, and right there on the website, he tells Amazon to 
send the book to his iPhone Kindle app, and it shows up. No fuss no Mas.

  Hello listers,

  Sorry I may have asked this question before.  My nephew loves math and

 The prices were very low; but he does not have kindle.  My question is if he 
downloads the kindle application on the iPhone 5c that he has, will they work? 
Where and how does he download it?  Is it for free or does he have to pay for 
it?  Does he have to buy the kindle device itself?  Which one do you advise me 
to buy for him if I will end up doing so?
  Many thanks for any help

Hi! Wayne: I just came across your reply to my inquiry concerning an accessible

Thank you very much for getting back to me, I just checked on the App Store, 
and it is listed in the app store, the price is approximately $1.39.

Thank you for your help and your assistance. Have a great day I will let you,

Re: Workaround to disable frequent IOS notifications

For me at least it's not so much being opposed to updating as finding
the constant prompting to do so very annoying while I am busy doing

I only perform updates via iTunes and will install 9.21 the next time
I am at my laptop. I just don't want to be prompted constantly in the
meantime.

RE: Workaround to disable frequent IOS notifications

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Michelle and Kimber,

 

I agree that updating may at times not be what you want especially if you are 
on a previous major version and it is known that the new version has bugs you 
don’t care to deal with. However, in the case of a double dot update, e.g. from 
9.2 to 9.2.1 the update is as you said primarily a security update and a fairly 
small one at that. I think on my phone it was 46 Mb and the download happened 
in less than a minute or so, then it took maybe 5 minutes for the update to 
install (on an older device this could be a bit longer). Considering the time 
you spent writing the emails and now trying a few suggestions to try and get 
rid of the notifications you could have easily done this update and especially 
such small double dot updates really don’t need to be installed via iTunes. 
Just force quit al apps and, if you want to do one more preparatory step, do a 
reboot of your phone, then install the update and all will be good.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

I agree with what Kimber wrote.  People have various reasons why they do not 
always wish to immediately update their devices and the constant reminder to 
update a device when you wish to postpone that installation can be annoying. 
Thanks for the suggestions on how to deactivate the reminders. I will give them 
a try.

Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

[Paul Hunt]

Hello everybody.
I've tried it and haven't been very successful. Here are my questions.
1. How do I recalibrate?
2. What typing modes are available in the braille screen input mode?
3. What techniques helped you to become proficient? Thanks so much.

RE: HootSuite - anybody using this to post to social media?

[Cristóbal]

I used it many moons ago. When the 4S was the  current  iPhone  and  from what 
I recall, I found it to be painfully slow with Voiceover and there  were some 
fileds/buttons  that were  either not at all  accessible to VO or not labeled. 
It was doable if you were patient, but I didn’t stick with it as I moved on to 
moreaccessible  apps at that  time.

If you say the Voiceover user experience is good now, I may just give it 
another  spin.

Thanks, Kevin, Google My Business is just one aspect of a presence on the web 
and it primarily helps with making sure a business is on Google Maps with 
driving directions, contact information etc. This is, however, not necessarily 
my problem. My issue is ranking on page 1 of Google search results for a 
variety of products/searches people may use. This is a very complex topic and 
going into details here is beyond the scope of an iPhone/iOS list and something 
I am working on in a number of ways..

My post was specifically meant to see if others are using HootSuite for 
whatever purpose it may be and whether they find it a useful tool that allows 
them to be more efficient when posting to multiple social media accounts.

Hi,

 

As the subject says, is anybody using the HootSuite service and app? The iOS 
app seems pretty accessible and allows you to add Facebook, Twitter and 
Instagram accounts and you can post to all of them at once. With Facebook you 
can add your main Facebook account and you can also just add Facebook Pages 
which in my case is what I did since for me this is hopefully going to make it 
easier to manage social media posts of my business. I just hired a company to 
do a bunch of SEO work on my store’s website and they told me that HootSuite 
was a great way to maximize social media exposure.

oogle Plus is apparently going to be supported in the near future as well.

The HootSuite website is also fairly accessible although if you write a post 
you have to then select to which of your connected accounts you want to post 
and that part is a bit tricky. I will try to get in touch with them and ask if 
they would be willing to consider improving accessibility of both the app and 
website wherever possible.

The basic service is free and there is also a Pro version for $9.99 a month and 
an Enterprise version which I didn’t check with respect to the cost since it 
wouldn’t apply to myself and probably not to anybody on the list.

If there are users on the list I’d be interested to hear their experience and 
how you use the app.

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

Re: Workaround to disable frequent IOS notifications

I agree with what Kimber wrote.  People have various reasons why they do 
not always wish to immediately update their devices and the constant 
reminder to update a device when you wish to postpone that installation can 
be annoying. Thanks for the suggestions on how to deactivate the reminders. 
I will give them a try.

Re: Accessible game of checkers for the iPhone:

[Michael McKay]

Hi Michael: thank you for the information. I just checked on the App Store with 
Apple, and the game is listed checker wise, and I will be downloading it as 
soon as I have some iTunes card money, which should be sometime soon.

I will let you in the list know how the game works, and how accessible it is. 
Thank you so much again.

[R VanLant]

When I am sharing an article or podcast and pull up the screen for sharing
options, what does it mean that, for example, "mail draggable"?  Why would I
want to drag that somewhere as opposed to just tap my selection?   Is this
to rearrange the icons on that screen?

Re: HootSuite - anybody using this to post to social media?

['Carol Pearson' via VIPhone]

I have just tried it, having seen your post! Thanks! At least it did signed me 
in to Facebook, unlike other apps! I am disappointed, though, that you can't 
actually get your messages that way.

I have done one post, but I'm not sure whether I actually sent it or not. Can 
you tell me exactly what do you do having written it, please! As you say, it is 
not actually that good at that stage, but most buttons do seem to be labelled! 
Does the post then disappear, having sent it, or what!

As the subject says, is anybody using the HootSuite service and app? The iOS 
app seems pretty accessible and allows you to add Facebook, Twitter and

can add your main Facebook account and you can also just add Facebook Pages

easier to manage social media posts of my business. I just hired a company to 
do a bunch of SEO work on my store’s website and they told me that HootSuite 
was a great way to maximize social media exposure.
oogle Plus is apparently going to be supported in the near future as well.
The HootSuite website is also fairly accessible although if you write a post 
you have to then select to which of your connected accounts you want to post 
and that part is a bit tricky. I will try to get in touch with them and ask if 
they would be willing to consider improving accessibility of both the app and 
website wherever possible.
The basic service is free and there is also a Pro version for $9.99 a month and 
an Enterprise version which I didn’t check with respect to the cost since it 
wouldn’t apply to myself and probably not to anybody on the list.
If there are users on the list I’d be interested to hear their experience and 
how you use the app.

I used it many moons ago. When the 4S was the  current  iPhone  and  from what 
I recall, I found it to be painfully slow with Voiceover and there  were some 
fileds/buttons  that were  either not at all  accessible to VO or not labeled. 
It was doable if you were patient, but I didn’t stick with it as I moved on to 
moreaccessible  apps at that  time.

If you say the Voiceover user experience is good now, I may just give it 
another  spin.

Thanks, Kevin, Google My Business is just one aspect of a presence on the web 
and it primarily helps with making sure a business is on Google Maps with 
driving directions, contact information etc. This is, however, not necessarily 
my problem. My issue is ranking on page 1 of Google search results for a 
variety of products/searches people may use. This is a very complex topic and 
going into details here is beyond the scope of an iPhone/iOS list and something 
I am working on in a number of ways..

My post was specifically meant to see if others are using HootSuite for 
whatever purpose it may be and whether they find it a useful tool that allows 
them to be more efficient when posting to multiple social media accounts.

RE: VO mispronunciation

[Walter Ramage]

Hi.  No, it is the native apple app.  It is just the app name I seem to have
the problem with.  When I go into the app and where the word calander
appears, it reads it correctly.  If and when I use the app switcher, it
still gives me that weird title.  It is strange it does it on my iPhone 6
and also on the iPhone 5c.  It might be there is an incompatibility with
something else on the phone that I'm unaware of.  Walter.

Where do you encounter this? Is it on the native Calendar app or when you
come across the word calendar elsewhere? On my old iPhone 5S, my new 6S Plus
and on my wife's iPhone 6 the calendar app is announced and pronounced
correctly. If this is a third party Calendar app then Voiceover will read
whatever the developer put in the accessibility label.

Hi guys.  I have a curious problem, it in no way impacts on the function of
the phone but I don't understand why VO does what it does.

VO does not pronounce "calendar" properly.  When I do a character by
character check, the spelling is correct but VO does not say it correctly.
What I hear is; and this is phonetic is "toy=lhp calanderkapp.$ and this
makes no sense.  Does anybody know how to correct this, it isn't critical
but I'd rather change it if I could but first I need to know what causes the
problem.  Walter.

How To Send SMS Messages From Windows 10 Computer to a Phone

Method 1 - Send Messages Through Email

Probably the simplest way to send messages from your computer to a
cell phone is through the email. To do so, just follow these instructions:

1.  Open Windows 10 Mail App

2.  Click on New Mail

3.  Now just enter the number you want to send the text message
to and enter the code of your provider. Here are message codes of some
popular providers: 

oAlltel: @message.alltel.com   (or
@mms.alltelwireless.com   for picture
messages)

oAT: @text.att.net  

oSprint: @messaging.sprintpcs.com
 

oT-Mobile: @tmomail.net  

oVerizon: @vtext.com   (or @vzwpix.com
  for photos and video) 
 

4.  Write the message as a normal email and just hit Send

When your friend replies to your text message, you'll also

RE: VO mispronunciation

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Where do you encounter this? Is it on the native Calendar app or when you come 
across the word calendar elsewhere? On my old iPhone 5S, my new 6S Plus and on 
my wife's iPhone 6 the calendar app is announced and pronounced correctly. If 
this is a third party Calendar app then Voiceover will read whatever the 
developer put in the accessibility label.

Hi guys.  I have a curious problem, it in no way impacts on the function of the 
phone but I don't understand why VO does what it does.

VO does not pronounce "calendar" properly.  When I do a character by character 
check, the spelling is correct but VO does not say it correctly.
What I hear is; and this is phonetic is "toy=lhp calanderkapp.$ and this makes 
no sense.  Does anybody know how to correct this, it isn't critical but I'd 
rather change it if I could but first I need to know what causes the problem.

How To Send SMS Messages From Windows 10 Computer to a Phone

Method 1 - Send Messages Through Email

Probably the simplest way to send messages from your computer to a cell 
phone is through the email. To do so, just follow these instructions:

1.  Open Windows 10 Mail App

2.  Click on New Mail

3.  Now just enter the number you want to send the text message
to and enter the code of your provider. Here are message codes of some popular 
providers: 

oAlltel: @message.alltel.com   (or
@mms.alltelwireless.com   for picture
messages)

oAT: @text.att.net  

oSprint: @messaging.sprintpcs.com
 

oT-Mobile: @tmomail.net  

oVerizon: @vtext.com   (or @vzwpix.com
  for photos and video) 
 

4.  Write the message as a normal email and just hit Send

When your friend replies to your text message, you'll also get it in 
your Mail inbox.

Method 2 - Send Message From A Carrier's website

A lot of mobile carriers offer you an option to send free SMS messages 
from your computer for free. Depending on the carrier, you'll be able to send 
text messages to other users of that carrier's services, or even users of other 
networks. So just go to your carrier's website, log into your account, find the 
option for texting, and send the text message from your computer.

X-Fi Sonic Carrier Stole the Thunder at CES 2016

[Sieghard Weitzel]

This does sound like an impressive setup and may be a real competitor to Sonos. 
One thing I like is the fact this has so many different inputs from analogue to 
HDMI and optical to Micro SD card slots, Bluetooth and NFC. It also has native 
support for Airplay,Google Cast for audio, Miracast, Chromecast, DLNA and more 
whereas I am not sure what Creative means by “More”.

They say it supports music services like Spotify, Pandora and, once again, 
“More” so we’ll have to see if it has support for such a complete list as Sonos.

It would be interesting to know if it is still available at the $1,750 preorder 
price which according to the announcement is only available for the first 200 
orders. Considering how Creative said this was so popular at CES one would 
think that they would have had 200 preorders in a day or two. $1,750 is about 
the same as a Sonos Playbar, Sonos Sub and 2 Play 1 speakers set up as rear 
speakers in a 5.1 surround setup so that isn’t too bad if it’s as good as they 
say it is. The regular price of $5,000 however is of course a pretty big junk 
of money and it really has to be something extremely special if it will indeed 
sell for that much. Here now the forwarded email:

Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

['Carol Pearson' via VIPhone]

Yes, I do use both the MBraille and the Apple supplied on-board keyboard. I 
love MBraille a lot, in fact most days. I think it is more accurate than the 
Apple on-board keyboard. Maybe, though, that is a user perspective and the 
errors could be mine!

I am not too keen on using it as an extra keyboard, because it's a bit tricky 
to use it in this way, because of the other keyboards that are already 
installed. I wish it could be on the rotor! Anyway, I quite often use the old 
method too, so I can open the app and then cut and paste accordingly, because 
in some ways it is easier and I like it better! What I do like is to have 
proper key clicks when typing. I'm afraid this is one of the disappointments of 
the Braille app by Apple which you can include on the rotor. By the way, I use 
the "away mode" " because it's the only thing that really works for me. I can't 
imagine becoming proficient with anything other than this. 

If you have any further questions, do come back. I hope this is helpful! Carol P

A STRANGE AND INFURIATING PROBLEM WITH MY 6SHH

['Carol Pearson' via VIPhone]

Hi all,

This is somewhat complex but I'll try to keep facts succinct. ...

To give you some background, I recently upgraded to iOS9.2.1 and noticed a 
problem after this. Howver, at about the same time I also had problems 
inserting an iStick, which I succeeded in doing eventually. We also have some 
strange interference with our TV which we think is posssibly an old pair of 
speakers which need replacing. There's also some electronic gadgetry a short 
distance from our sitting-room window which does not belong to us but we 
sometimes wonder if this has caused problems.

My problem pnly occurs when using headphones, which I do most of the time as 
Mike is writing nearby at the same time. Often Siri just chimes in, being 
absolutely convinced that I really do want his help! (In desperation I even 
turned him off, reset all connections and then rebooted, being sure to restrict 
Siri so that I had to tap the Home button to ask for his attention. He now does 
not respond to "Hey Siri"  so I'm happy I've done this correctly.

However, in the sittingroom with Apple headphones the problem continues. My 
music also starts playing without me wanting it.

To add to the complications, we have a set of speakers for our TV in the 
sittingroom that are ageing and are a little faulty and there's also some 
electrical contraption not too far from the window which sometimes appears to 
interfere with our equipment.


I am thinking that I possibly could have damaged the sockets, or maybe the 
problem has been caused by my volume being too loud. I have adjusted this, 
since some were having problems with the volume settings after an iOS update a 
little while back and I realise this could create a problem. Finally, there's 
also a setting or two I recently altered, so I'll now try to set those once 
again as before. One was the 3D Touch setting which I recently changed to its 
lowest, rather than the set level in the middle.

I really don't know how to solve this one. I could go to the Apple Store once I 
have less of a cold and can fit it in, but I'm not sure whether they can really 
track this one down.

Does anyone have recommendations as to what I should do now, please?

Apologies for this ramble and the amount of information I felt was needed. 
Thanks to those who have read all the way through! I do appreciate this and now 
hope for some useful replies!

Re: A STRANGE AND INFURIATING PROBLEM WITH MY 6SHH

[englishrider91]

Not to discount everything you said, but I wonder if the problem is with your 
headphones. The Apple headphones I had lasted me quite a few years, but you 
never know. I've had similar problems with my iPhone 4S and a set of Sony 
earbuds with iPhone controls. I think my headset that has just started to go 
bad, because I never get this problem without the headphones plugged in. A 
scenario you might want to consider before thinking that your iPhone is going 
nuts, or that electrical equipment is interfering with it.


Thanks,
Ari

Re: Workaround to disable frequent IOS notifications

[englishrider91]

I've been burned in the past by updating without backing up first, and I 
preferred to back up via iTunes, so I'm going to wait for a little bit as well, 
until I can do that. I've got some things going on at the moment, so upgrading 
isn't a huge priority right now, but I'll do it in the next few days or so, 
especially considering that it's a security update.

I seem to (yet again) be out of photos, so I am trying to buy any package,
but any time I do, I'm told that this item is currently being modified, and
that there's a purchasing error. This has rendered the app completely

Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

[Dani Pagador]

Hi.
I love the Braille Screen input option, especially because I can edit
as I go and understand what's happening. I don't have to worry about
whether I'm inadvertently inputting unwanted text. I use it when I'm
working with y iPod Touch away from my Braille display, tabletop mode,
uncontracted UEB.

More Later,
Dani

MBraille Suggestion, was Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?

[Arnold Schmidt]

I already had MBraille before the Apple Braille keyboard was released, so I 
have not taken the time to learn to use the Apple keyboard very well.  I find 
it to be not quite as refined as is MBraille, although that very well could be 
due to operator incompetence.Also, it does not have the word processing 
ability of MBraille.  If I want to edit anything, I have to use the regular 
Apple keyboard editing features, which are not as easy for me to use as those 
in MBraille.  

A few months ago, I purchased the option to use MBraille as a third-party 
keyboard.  At the time, it didn't seem to work very well for me as a 
third-party keyboard, so I forgot about it until last weekend when, for some 
reason which I do not remember now, I decided to try it again.  I deleted that 
emogey  keyboard which I never used, and enabled MBraille as a third-party 
keyboard.  It works well. Now, when I am in a text field, I can tap the next 
keyboard button, and although the transition to MBraille is occasionally a bit 
flakey, more often than not, it goes right into MBraille.  I write my text, am 
enable to correct any errors or do any word processing I wish to do with 
MBraille. Then, I Place my fingers onto the keyboard as if I were going to 
write dots 4-5-6, and do a three-finger swipe right (being in landscape mode, I 
mean a three-finger swipe toward the home button.)  It then inserts my text 
into the text field, and I am back in the regular keyboard.  No more copying 
and pasting.

the Braille app by Apple which you can include on the rotor. By the way, I use 
the "away mode" " because it's the only thing that really works for me. I can't 
imagine becoming proficient with anything other than this. 

  If you have any further questions, do come back. I hope this is helpful!

issues with pickers in facebook site on safari.

[Mário Navarro]

hi all.
some of you are having problems with the pickers popup display on safari 
and at the following address?


www.m.facebook.com

for me, the pickers not work as they should in this  site.
I am referring only on the pickers of feeds.
example:
every time I give a double tap on one of these pickers, the items are 
displayed in the right bottom of the page.

I think this position is wrong.
the items had to be shown to the right of the picker, and not on the 
bottom  right page

what do you think about this.
I think is a bug.
the others work.

such as:
friend requests, messages and notifications.
these works fine.
 here,   the items are positioned to the right of the picker.
please tell me what you think
 if you are having this problem, please report to apple ...
I will report this issue to Apple, but will be much better if all work 
together ...


thanks.

cheers.

RE: X-Fi Sonic Carrier Stole the Thunder at CES 2016

[Jim Ruby]

Looks nice, but I am to vested in sonos right now and I always found at least 
for my ears the one box solution for surround audio don’t quite do it for me. I 
ope sonos would add more protocols and options to their boxes. I was thinking 
about two new play5s, but still in the pondering stage.

This does sound like an impressive setup and may be a real competitor to Sonos. 
One thing I like is the fact this has so many different inputs from analogue to 
HDMI and optical to Micro SD card slots, Bluetooth and NFC. It also has native 
support for Airplay,Google Cast for audio, Miracast, Chromecast, DLNA and more 
whereas I am not sure what Creative means by “More”.

They say it supports music services like Spotify, Pandora and, once again, 
“More” so we’ll have to see if it has support for such a complete list as Sonos.

It would be interesting to know if it is still available at the $1,750 preorder 
price which according to the announcement is only available for the first 200 
orders. Considering how Creative said this was so popular at CES one would 
think that they would have had 200 preorders in a day or two. $1,750 is about 
the same as a Sonos Playbar, Sonos Sub and 2 Play 1 speakers set up as rear 
speakers in a 5.1 surround setup so that isn’t too bad if it’s as good as they 
say it is. The regular price of $5,000 however is of course a pretty big junk 
of money and it really has to be something extremely special if it will indeed 
sell for that much. Here now the forwarded email:

in bluetooth settings, it sets there like it's trying to pair, but I always get 
a messageit was unable to pair.  I can usually successfully pair devices to

them if I can't get it paired in a few days.  Any suggestions?
