Using my iPodTouch to make a Video?

[Dani Pagador]

Hi, Everyone.
I have my iPodTouch on a mount, and wanted to use it to make a video
for class. Any tips, tricks, or ideas for how to do this effectively
as a totally blind person?

Thanks,
Dani

Re: Siri, YouTube

[Jewel]

Karen:  is that Siri or voice-over? can also make a right hash of reading.  I 
play Sporcle's Word 
Ladder game a lot, and have found that, for me at least, it is  essential to 
flick my way through a 
clue to ascertain if what voice-over/Siri seemed to be saying was, in point of 
fact, the clue, and, 
very often, it was nowhere near it.

Yes, it does get things wrong although I assume if you had perfect 
pronunciation and clear speech 
there wouldn't be many mistakes. If, for example, I dictate in German which is 
my first language it 
is almost perfect, but then again German spelling is also a lot simpler than 
English spelling since 
typically there aren't two or sometimes maybe even 3 different ways to spell 
certain words as in 
English. For example, "there" and "their", "hear" and "here", "bear" and "bare" 
etc. Anyhow, I did 
say " except for any potential mistakes" and I definitely don't want to defend 
SIRI because 
sometimes it really does interpret what you say in interesting ways and I think 
we all hope for 
major improvements both with dictation and especially with what queries SIRI 
can answer and how it 
can handle more compound queries.

Sieghard

Whenever you are dictating it's like you are writing the information, except 
for any potential 
mistakes SIRI will put exactly what you say. Dictation is also done via SIRI, 
but it is just voice 
recognition just the same as when you dictate a text message. Then if you 
dictate a phrase or 
whatever and you are in the Youtube search box then of course whatever is found 
is up to how Youtube 
matches what you said.
If you use SIRI and ask "When was Albert Einstein's birthday" or something 
similar the answer 
depends on what sources SIRI has available and is checking for answers. Here 
SIRI is not as good as 
other virtual assistants such as the one from Google which seems to come up 
with useful information 
more often.

I guess what I was noticing is that when I dictate a query in the search field 
in YouTube I can use 
very natural speech and it brings me up pretty near exactly what I'm looking

a question what determines whether she'll be able to answer it or not? What she

Re: 2 questions, regarding Bard

[Chris Chaffin]

One thing I do when I am listening to something and do not want the sounds of 
notifications to bother me, I just hit the mute switch on the side of my phone. 
 That way I do not hear all of the notification sounds and I do not have to 
worry about those sounds lowering the volume of my book.
There are other things that you can do, but this is just what I do.

Hope this helps,

Chris

Question about the Xfinity My Account iOS app

[Robin Frost]

Hi,
If anyone here uses this app I’ve a question about its latest version. It used 
to be  that upon launching the app in its main screen where it’d display your 
account user name your first name and your current balance along with your 
nearest service center it’d also display an element that’d say something to the 
affect of no outages reported need to report an outage thus giving you the 
means to do so.
I’m no longer seeing this references to outages or reporting them on the 
account tab of this app. Thus I’m wondering have they hidden it somewhere else 
or am I just crazy and missing it somewhere?
Thanks bunches for any light shed on this for me.
Robin

RE: Search for cell network under system services, what is it?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Yes, it is on all phones and if you use the 4-finger single tap to go all the 
way to the bottom in Settings > Privacy > Location Services you do have to 
swipe left 3 times to get to System Services.
The last 3 items explain what the meaning of various coloured icons is, but as 
Voiceover users you don't have to worry aboutthat as Voiceover announces what 
for sighted people is indicated by colours or an outlined icon.

RE: T mobile Tuesdays

[Sieghard Weitzel]

It is not spam. I am in Canada, but a simple Google search for "T-Mobile 
Tuesday" gives me links to the T-Mobile website and below is the link to the 
T-Mobile Tuesday app:

Subject: T mobile Tuesdays

I have seen several articles in the tech press this morning talking about the 
latest publicity stunt from T-Mobile, this one being offers of various free 
goodies to subscribers. You need an app called T mobile Tuesdays. One article I 
saw even had an App Store link. But when I tried the link, it took me exactly 
know where. So I tried searching in the app store myself. Same thing, no 
results. Has anyone actually seeing this T mobile Tuesdays app? It is supposed 
to be both in the app store and the Google play store for android users.

RE: which navigon app

[Richard Turner]

It depends in which country you live.

If you are in the United States, you can buy Navigon for your region, Western, 
Central or Eastern, or by the whole United States package, or the North America 
package that includes Canada.

 

As others will point out, Google Maps does a good job and is free.  Though in 
some cases, I’ve found Navigon finds things that Google doesn’t.

 

If you are in the United States, mapQuest is also very good, but they won’t let 
third party apps like BlindSquare launch them, which is a shame.

 

Later,

Richard

I searched for “Navigon”, and got a number of navigon apps, which one should I

Re: Losing focus

[Christopher Chaltain]

Yes, I know how much Apple developers get paid, and I also know that 
Apple is the most profitable company in the world. I also have some 
experience managing operating system releases, so I understand what goes 
into balancing schedule, cost, resources, content, priorities and so on. 
Apple, like any other company, has variables they can manage. There's no 
reason bugs have to sit around for a while unless a company chooses to 
let them sit around. Of course, as users, it's up to us to let them know 
something needs to be fixed and let them know when it still hasn't been 
addressed.


If you're saying that we as blind users, who pay just as much for our 
iPhones as any other users, should be OK with our defects not getting 
addressed because Apple has too many bugs or their developers are being 
paid too much then I wouldn't agree with that. I agree that we aren't 
the only users of Apple products, and we need to realize that Apple does 
have a finite amount of resources and they need to prioritize the bugs 
they're going to address. Not all of our bugs are going to be the 
highest priority bugs. On the other hand, we deserve our bugs to get 
addressed and prioritized just as any other Apple customer does.

On Jun 5, 2016, at 1:42 PM, Christopher Chaltain  wrote:

I agree, but I also paid the same amount of money for my iPhone as everyone 
else, so I should expect the same support. This bug has been present for around 
9 months, so I think a certain amount of impatience is understandable. Also, 
the number of bug reports is irrelevant to me. The iPhone is a high end device, 
so a customer, whether blind or sighted, should not have to expect a lot of 
bugs. Furthermore, Apple can address a large number of bugs in several ways. 
They could put more developers on fixing bugs for example. This is a business 
decision on Apple's part. Note that Apple is not unique in this case.

Re: Search for cell network under system services, what is it?

I have an iPhone 4S, and I see System Services near the bottom of the

Hi Mary,

The Cell Network Search has nothing to do with how your phone connects to the 
cellular network or whether it connects at all. A Google search resulted in a 
bunch of results, here is one explanation which is easy to understand:

Cell network search: Apple keeps a database of cell towers and monitors 
reception in your area based on this option. It’s used to improve products in 
general and it’s not really a necessary function, so you can disable this 
feature if you wish not to share cellular tower information with Apple.

Wi-Fi Networking I am pretty sure does something equivalent for Wi-Fi Networks 
and hotspots.

Even Setting Time Zone is not required as your phone also receives this 
information from cell towers. I have turned this on in rare situations when I 
travelled to Asia and for some reason the date and time did not seem to set 
themselves. Turning it on would fix the issue and then I turned it off again 
since it anyways would only be important if you travel across time zones. Here 
in Canada or the US I have never found that the time was not displayed 
correctly even with this turned off.

Sieghard

I took the advice  about going into location services and checking the system 
services under there and turning off things that you don't need. One of those 
items is checking for cellular network services or something close to that. Now 
that sounds like something you would want to do when you are signing up and 
getting connected with your cellular network. And I think the advice in the 
original post was that it could be turned off. But I wonder about what might 
happen if you were on a road trip, say, and lost contact. Or even if you had to 
reboot your phone or turn it on to airplane mode and then off-again. Wouldn't 
it have to find the network? So, I turn this off but I'm wondering if that was 
a good idea.

functions for anchor BT Keyboard

[Ann Chiappetta]

Hi listers,

Just got a great deal on a BT folio case and keyboard for my mini. It is
from Anchor and it is model TC840.  I had some trouble syncing it but I do
like it. I researched the commands as much as I can without the manual,
would love any extra help with the option  and FIN keys and for some reason,
I cannot locate the question mark.

RE: Comprehensive Analysis of Apple's Big Reveal from a Blindness Perspective

[Merv Keck]

Jonathan or anyone:

Is there an Apple TV 4 recommended app for listening to Mushroom radio here in 
the United states?

I have an iPhone and of course could listen live on my PC on Monday. However, I 
thought it might be fun to listen via the Apple TV fourth Generation if 
possible.

Next Monday, Apple’s Worldwide developers conference begins with a big reveal. 
We’ll find out about many of the key new features in iOS 10, the operating 
system for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch that will be released later in the year. 
We’ll learn about the name and feature set of the next version of the operating 
system for the Mac, which may even get a new name. There may be software 
announcements pertaining to Apple Watch and Apple TV, and who knows what other 
surprises Apple may have in store.

 

WWDC is aimed at developers, so the presentation can get a bit geeky. And due 
to limited time, a lot of information is flashed up on the screen in 
presentation slides that are not spoken about during the presentation. To get a 
straightforward, comprehensive analysis and summary of all the big news, you 
won’t want to miss our special Tech Team presentation on Mushroom FM right 
after the event.

 

One thing we promise. We’ll offer you detailed, constructive analysis. This is 
no Apple commercial. The team brings a range of perspectives to the show that 
will help you understand where Apple is innovating, where they’re catching up 
and where they’re behind. 

 

On our tech team for this show are:

 

Allison Hartley, so much of an Apple fan that she even includes the brand in 
her own Twitter Name, @AppleAlli. She’s also the co-host of the Tech Doctor 
podcast.

 

Steve Nutt knows his way around iOS and VoiceOver, but he’s a committed Android 
user and advocate. If you’re debating whether your next device should be iOS or 
Android, Steve will offer his views on how Apple’s announcements stack up from 
an Android user’s perspective.

 

Heidi Mosen is an iOS user and tech geek. She also is unique on the Tech Team 
show in that she has eyeballs that work. As already mentioned, these Apple 
presentations display a lot of information on-screen that isn’t discussed. 
Heidi will be taking copious notes during the keynote event, so she can answer 
detailed questions and comment on user interface and other issues she’s been 
able to see from the demos.

 

And I, Jonathan Mosen, will be chiming in, moderating the conversation, and 
doing my best to ensure you’re informed and entertained.

 

The Tech Team will begin by discussing the big news among themselves, then 
we’ll open it up for discussion to find out what you think. You can Skype us, 
or call us via numbers all over the world. Details about those numbers closer 
to the time. We’ll also be monitoring the #MushroomFM Twitter hashtag.

 

If you have an interest in tech from a blindness perspective, you’ll want to 
set two hours aside to join the Tech Team. We go to air right after the 
keynote, at 4 PM Eastern, 9 PM UK, next Monday 13 June. See you then.

Re: 2 questions, regarding Bard

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everybody,

Thank you so much for the help. I really appreciate it. For some reason, I 
could never figure out the answer to my security question, which was odd. But 
it all got worked out anyway.
I called my local library, and I explain the situation to the nice lady I spoke 
too. She said she could force a password reset and that I would get an email 
with instructions as to what to do next. Which I did pretty much immediately.
I went and set a new password, that I know I won't forget

The only thing I don't like is the fact that I can't change the volume level of 
the books, without changing the volume level of my phone. Didn't make my phone 
so loud. When I stopped reading, or when I have to do something else. I know 
it's a small complaint, and maybe it is silly. But that is my complaint. Noon
I wonder if I hook it up to my iPod dock, if that would make things better? I 
would imagine so.

Anyway, thank you again. I really do appreciate all the help and support.

Terri

I have an iPhone5 with the latest iOS update. I'm wondering if the settings in

For 

Hello everyone,

[Terri Stimmel]

Does anyone on here, have experience with the Charter cable app on their 
phones, or the like?

I put it on my phone a while back, and it seemed a little better, than it had 
in about a year.

I called and talked to 2 different people. One told me that she thought that 
you could record to your DVR with the app. But she was not sure how.
Then she also told me that if you were out watching something on the app, you 
could return home, and set it to go to your tv. But I do not know if this is 
correct, either.

A few days later, I talked with another lady. She told me that I could not 
record to the DVR, from the app. I told her this made no sense to me, because I 
could see record buttons.
Then I asked her about the tv thing, and she said no to that as well. So I do 
not know what to believe.

What do you all think?
Would you use the Charter app?
If so, what is it could for, in your opinion?
I was told the app could only be used on my WIFI network anyway, which seems 
pointless.

Thank you for listening to all this. I really appreciate it.

Terri

Comprehensive Analysis of Apple's Big Reveal from a Blindness Perspective

[Jonathan Mosen]

Next Monday, Apple’s Worldwide developers conference begins with a big reveal. 
We’ll find out about many of the key new features in iOS 10, the operating 
system for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch that will be released later in the year. 
We’ll learn about the name and feature set of the next version of the operating 
system for the Mac, which may even get a new name. There may be software 
announcements pertaining to Apple Watch and Apple TV, and who knows what other 
surprises Apple may have in store.

WWDC is aimed at developers, so the presentation can get a bit geeky. And due 
to limited time, a lot of information is flashed up on the screen in 
presentation slides that are not spoken about during the presentation. To get a 
straightforward, comprehensive analysis and summary of all the big news, you 
won’t want to miss our special Tech Team presentation on Mushroom FM right 
after the event.

One thing we promise. We’ll offer you detailed, constructive analysis. This is 
no Apple commercial. The team brings a range of perspectives to the show that 
will help you understand where Apple is innovating, where they’re catching up 
and where they’re behind. 

On our tech team for this show are:

Allison Hartley, so much of an Apple fan that she even includes the brand in 
her own Twitter Name, @AppleAlli. She’s also the co-host of the Tech Doctor 
podcast.

Steve Nutt knows his way around iOS and VoiceOver, but he’s a committed Android 
user and advocate. If you’re debating whether your next device should be iOS or 
Android, Steve will offer his views on how Apple’s announcements stack up from 
an Android user’s perspective.

Heidi Mosen is an iOS user and tech geek. She also is unique on the Tech Team 
show in that she has eyeballs that work. As already mentioned, these Apple 
presentations display a lot of information on-screen that isn’t discussed. 
Heidi will be taking copious notes during the keynote event, so she can answer 
detailed questions and comment on user interface and other issues she’s been 
able to see from the demos.

And I, Jonathan Mosen, will be chiming in, moderating the conversation, and 
doing my best to ensure you’re informed and entertained.

The Tech Team will begin by discussing the big news among themselves, then 
we’ll open it up for discussion to find out what you think. You can Skype us, 
or call us via numbers all over the world. Details about those numbers closer 
to the time. We’ll also be monitoring the #MushroomFM Twitter hashtag.

If you have an interest in tech from a blindness perspective, you’ll want to 
set two hours aside to join the Tech Team. We go to air right after the 
keynote, at 4 PM Eastern, 9 PM UK, next Monday 13 June. See you then.

Re: 2 questions, regarding Bard

[Dani Pagador]

Hi.
When you reset your password, there's a security question and answer
which only you know, because you selected the question and answer when
you first set the account up.

HTH,

Re: Siri, YouTube

[Deidre Muccio]

OK, I understand all this, but I guess my question is a little out there since 
you don't seem to understand what I'm asking. Or nobody else knows what I'm 
asking either! I just don't know why Siri's performance is so miserable at 
times when asking her to look something up or find something or answer a 
question. On the contrary when I plug something into a search engine I get far 
better results. I suppose these are two different systems of gathering 
information

RE: T mobile Tuesdays

[Rick Alfaro]

They just pushed it out about an hour ago. It's definitely coming but needs 
time to propagate.
  This last uncarrier move I think is brilliant, specifically giving out full 
shares of their stock to all their primary account holder accounts.


Best regards,

Rick Alfaro

Actually, they are not in Settings > Cellular, these are location settings and

RE: Siri, YouTube

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Whenever you are dictating it's like you are writing the information, except 
for any potential mistakes SIRI will put exactly what you say. Dictation is 
also done via SIRI, but it is just voice recognition just the same as when you 
dictate a text message. Then if you dictate a phrase or whatever and you are in 
the Youtube search box then of course whatever is found is up to how Youtube 
matches what you said.
If you use SIRI and ask "When was Albert Einstein's birthday" or something 
similar the answer depends on what sources SIRI has available and is checking 
for answers. Here SIRI is not as good as other virtual assistants such as the 
one from Google which seems to come up with useful information more often.

I guess what I was noticing is that when I dictate a query in the search field 
in YouTube I can use very natural speech and it brings me up pretty near 
exactly what I'm looking for. When I asked Siri a question what determines 
whether she'll be able to answer it or not? What she will find? Why is the 
performance so much less able to recognize the nature of the information I am 
seeking?

Re: Weight Watchers App.

Well, I am in Canada, so that might make a difference.

I had issues getting stuff in braille as well, and the materials weren’t the 
full package, as the sighted members paid for.  Yes, it was the basics, and I 
could use it, but.. really.

anyway, I hope you have luck with the app, and the program in general.  It 
works for lots of folks.

Wow, that’s pretty harsh! They used to be very open to suggestions, and they

There used to be an app that you could get from the app store from weight 
watchers.  You have to be a member and paid up to have full access to the app, 
though.

The app was mostly accessable, but you couldn’t see how many points you’d eaten 
for the day, or have a running tally.  They were visible on the screen, but 
voice over couldn’t read them.

I emailed the head office without any luck, basically, they could care less.

Hi Mary,

The Cell Network Search has nothing to do with how your phone connects to the 
cellular network or whether it connects at all. A Google search resulted in a 
bunch of results, here is one explanation which is easy to understand:

Cell network search: Apple keeps a database of cell towers and monitors 
reception in your area based on this option. It’s used to improve products in 
general and it’s not really a necessary function, so you can disable this 
feature if you wish not to share cellular tower information with Apple.

Wi-Fi Networking I am pretty sure does something equivalent for Wi-Fi Networks 
and hotspots.

Even Setting Time Zone is not required as your phone also receives this 
information from cell towers. I have turned this on in rare situations when I 
travelled to Asia and for some reason the date and time did not seem to set 
themselves. Turning it on would fix the issue and then I turned it off again 
since it anyways would only be important if you travel across time zones. Here 
in Canada or the US I have never found that the time was not displayed 
correctly even with this turned off.

Sieghard

I took the advice  about going into location services and checking the system 
services under there and turning off things that you don't need. One of those 
items is checking for cellular network services or something close to that. Now 
that sounds like something you would want to do when you are signing up and 
getting connected with your cellular network. And I think the advice in the 
original post was that it could be turned off. But I wonder about what might 
happen if you were on a road trip, say, and lost contact. Or even if you had to 
reboot your phone or turn it on to airplane mode and then off-again. Wouldn't

RE: Some Great IOS and Assistive Tech Podcasts

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I would say one of the most obvious when it comes to iOS would be Applevis, 
also Cool Blind Tech does a fair number of iOS related Podcasts although they 
are not specific to iOS or Mac but a general tech podcast.

Hey all,

As a long time subscriber to this list I have rarely seen podcasts mentioned on 
here. I thought I would put together a list of some of the great podcasts all 
about assistive technology with an IOS and Mac VoiceOVer focus.Some of you are 
probably aware and even listen to them so this list may not be for you, but I 
am sure at least one person will find the list and the links useful. If not 
just hit the delete key and disregard. Full disclosure the first podcast is my 
podcast with my colleague Ed Plumacher and we hope you may learn something but 
at least we think you will get a laugh out of it. happy listening.

RE: Siri, YouTube

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Sorry if I am not understanding the question, but what does Youtube have to do 
with SIRI or search engines? Youtube is a site to share videos, you can upload 
or consume all sorts of content from the latest music videos to TV shows, but 
it is not a general search engine like Google or Bing.

RE: Which google services can we use in iPhone?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

You can use Google voice search, but of course you have to first open the app 
for "OK Google" to react, you cannot set it as a replacement for SIRI to 
perform phone functions like turning on/off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi etc.

Some of my posts are definitely showing but maybe they are ones when I have

contacts and when I tell Siri to email the group that's those messages for some 
reason don't show. I better go check!

Re: 2 questions, regarding Bard

[Chris Chaffin]

I am assuming that you do not remember your log in information after resetting 
your settings.  If that is the case then I would recommend calling BARD'S 
support phone number for help.
1-800-342-3688

As far as the volume, the Bard app uses the same volume that music uses.  You 
can use the up and down volume buttons on the side of your device, or the 
volume control can also be found in the control center.  To get to the control 
center, just touch the status bar where the clock is located, then swipe up 
with three fingers.  The volume control is near the bottom of that screen.  To 
exit the control center, just press the home button.

Hope this helps,

Chris

you realize how good they get paid?  I don’t have the problem so it really

Re: 2 questions, regarding Bard

[Alan Paganelli]

Your user name is your email address and only you know what password you used 
to create your account.  And of course,, you have to be approved to access the 
NLS content.

I can access BARD constant from my Windows computer where I can download books 
and then copy them to my stream 1 or directly from my stream II.  My favorite 
way though is via my iPad Air because it's speaker has better sound then my 
iPhone 5S.

Re: 2 questions, regarding Bard

[Michelle Bernstein]

Hi Terri,
 
The volume settings for the BARD Mobile app is not located within the 
Settings folder which is accessed at the bottom of the screen, third one 
from the left.
Once you have downloaded a title to your Bookshelf, you open that book.  On 
my IPAD, I can increase or decrease the volume by pressing on the volume 
controls on the upper right side of the IPAD.
I could not find a volume control section either within the settings 
section of the app or within the actual book you are reading on the 
Bookshelf.
 
Once you download the app, to sign in with your user name and password, you 
first must agree to the service terms.  You select the agree button at the 
end of the service terms.
Then the usual BARD login appears.  Unlike, at least on my pc, once you 
enter your user name and password, you never need to enter this data again.
 
For future reference, in the Bookshelf option is the BARD Mobile manual 
which is accessed through the Help Option.
 
Regards, Michelle

2 questions, regarding Bard

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering, how do I go about finding out my user name and password, for 
the Bard app?
Everything was fine, until I reset settings back a couple of weeks ago.

Also, is there a way to turn up the volume, with the Bard app? The volume 
always seems so low to me.

Thank you,

Terri

Instead of going into Notifications, stay on the settings screen and just

there.

Hi,

If you go into the settings area it should indicate your user name and whether 
you’re signed in as such.

the account is free and requires nothing of you to be used.  It merely allows 
you to sync your alerts across devices should you wish.

If it indicates that you’re signed in then you can set your alerts as you wish. 
Under your profile if you set a home address it can make up assigning your 
alerts easier. Once you’re in the alerts area such as severe alerts or winter 
alerts and the like it’ll ask you to choose a location and offer you options 
from that which you’ve saved.

Good morning.  

 

I got the free Weather Channel app over the weekend and already gave permission 
to track my location and send me alerts.  

 

This morning I went into it and attempted to set up the alerts and found the 
area to do it.  That’s when II ran into problems and confusion.  

 

I toggled on the alerts I need, at least I though I did, anyway, but each time 
I got this sign-up thing popping up.  I tried to go back to set up the next one 
and It reported what I thought I had turned on was still off, as I thought I 
could turn on several and than go do the sign-up.  

 

The sign-up process itself was a bit confusing, and I’m not totally sure if I’v 
actually done it or under what password.  The first time it said there was an 
error and to try later.  So I did a moment later and tried with same password 
but somehow it reported I had put in something different.  I accepted but now 
don’t know if I have something to log in with or if I am correctly logged in.  

 

So now I totally don’t know where I stand with the account or my alerts.  

 

I really wanted to get these done quickly as we have a tropical storm moving 
across Florida imminently.  I know there was a Facebook sign-up option as well 
which I tried and wasn’t sure I did correctly either, as I have an 
accountthere.  I did get a gone button on that but didn’t hit it immediately 
and think I should have.  

 

I need all this confusion cleared up.

Re: email from mp3 recorder attachment stuck as unsent

[Richard Turner]

There is a limit to the size of email attachments. most email services limit to 
less than 10 megabytes.
So, you may have to use dropbox to share the recordings depending on the size.

Re: Question about setting up email on iphone

[Christopher Chaltain]

This is all true, but there are still reasons someone might want to use 
their ISP's email address, so we should all help Denise, in addition to 
giving her this advice. I use my ISP's email address for things where 
I'm not too interested in the email that goes there, such as emails from 
my ISP, places where I need a backup email address or places that ask 
for an email address, but I don't really want to add spam to my primary 
email account. Sure, I could just get another free address from Google, 
but why shouldn't I use an address that should disappear when I leave ISP's.

Hello Denise,

As a general rule, I usually recommend that people do not use the email service 
of their internet service provider (ISP)--especially
the cable companies and phone companies.  There are several reasons for this 
not the least of which being that should you decide to
leave that provider, you will need to transfer your email accounts; this is to 
say, you will need to change your email address.

This is just my opinion but my preferred solutions are gMail, Appple, 
Microsoft, or a private remote email server.

If anyone is using Comcast xfinity for your email provider I have a question.  
I had to change my Comcast Xfinity password and also

Weather Channel appp; setting up alerts

[Bill Outman]

Good morning.  

 

I got the free Weather Channel app over the weekend and already gave
permission to track my location and send me alerts.  

 

This morning I went into it and attempted to set up the alerts and found the
area to do it.  That's when II ran into problems and confusion.  

 

I toggled on the alerts I need, at least I though I did, anyway, but each
time I got this sign-up thing popping up.  I tried to go back to set up the
next one and It reported what I thought I had turned on was still off, as I
thought I could turn on several and than go do the sign-up.  

 

The sign-up process itself was a bit confusing, and I'm not totally sure if
I'v actually done it or under what password.  The first time it said there
was an error and to try later.  So I did a moment later and tried with same
password but somehow it reported I had put in something different.  I
accepted but now don't know if I have something to log in with or if I am
correctly logged in.  

 

So now I totally don't know where I stand with the account or my alerts.  

 

I really wanted to get these done quickly as we have a tropical storm moving
across Florida imminently.  I know there was a Facebook sign-up option as
well which I tried and wasn't sure I did correctly either, as I have an
accountthere.  I did get a gone button on that but didn't hit it immediately
and think I should have.  

 

I need all this confusion cleared up.  

 

Bill Outman

Re: Question about setting up email on iphone

[christopher hallsworth]

Yes I agree. This is why I have an Apple account as primary, but also have a 
Gmail account as secondary. I never use my provider’s email service because of 
the reasons and possible implications listed here.
