Really need major help with 5S

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,

First of all, this may be a bit long. I apologize for that. I just want 
to give as much detail, as possible. I am really hoping that someone 
knows what is up.


Ok, first off, I realized why I could not get my phone to play over the 
docing station. I had totally forgot that this was an issue, and then it 
just clicked in. I have to remove my case, in order for the piece to go 
directly in to the phone, I mention this for a reason,.


So anyway, once I figure this out, I decide to play with Spotify. I 
muted my phone, so I would not get all the alert noises coming through 
the speakers, and interrupting the music.


things were going just fine. we listeneed to one album, and I was about 
to switch to another. Well, as I was about to get the other album to 
play, I got an alert that I just got a text message.
then all of a sudden, the phone sounded as though it said, oikm, real 
low, and then made the sound it would make, if you were plugging it up.


All of a sudden, I realized that my voiceover was off, I asked my 
sighted boyfriend, if he could try and help me. He was able to tell me 
that the volume was all the way down. It took us a while to get it back 
up. I could hear the little clicks it makes, when you are sometimes 
trying to turn the phone up,.


we thought it would be best to restart it, so we did. Voiceover was not 
on, so I got serie to turn it on. It did, and the phone talked, until I 
got it unlocked. then it was as though it was off again. but it was not!


I realized that if i talked to Seriem, and made a call, the phone would 
do anything, as long as I was in the call. I also found out that I can 
get calls, and voiceover will come on and tell me who is calling, and 
let me take the call. Again, the whole time I am on the phone, the 
voiceover works fine.


A friend of mine told me that this was an audio bug, and that it happens 
to her husband at times,. I do have the latest version of software 
installed, and have had no problems.
My friend told me that I needed to do a restore from backup. She told me 
I needed to use Itunes to do this.


well I have Itunes on this laptop, but I have never connected this phone 
to it. So I went and did this, and I tried to do a restore from backup. 
I do not know if I was successful, or not. I am not good at using 
Itunes. It does not make sense to me, and I do not think it always gives 
enough feedback. but this is just me,.


If the restore to backup did work, it did not fix my phones issue. I 
even restarted the phone with my boyfriend's help, to see if that would 
make a difference,.


I also called AT I got a really nice ladym, who actually took the 
time to try and help me,. She even tried to look up reasons I may have 
been having the problem. AWe did discover that a lot of the Voiceover 
functions had been shut off,. So we fixed all that.
She even thought at one time it might have been a proximity sensor 
issue, So she had me do some testing with that. No luck, of course.


So then she tried to get someone from Apple. We waited 40 minutes 
together, and then she left me waiting on my own. I waited about another 
20 minutes, But they must have been rather busy. I just could not wait 
any longer. I was getting tired, and frustrated. So I ended the call.


Does anyone have any clue as to why my phone is doing this?
If so, is there an easy fix for it?
If so, what do I need to do?
Would someone please tell me the exact steps on how to do a restore from 
backup, and how to know if it was successful? Maybe I did this wrong.


I feel I may have to go to the Apple store. I really do not want to have 
to do this.


Any help with this crazy mess, would be very much appreciated. I am at a 
complete loss! I did not realize just how much I depend on my phone, and 
just what all I do with it,. It has only been a few hours, and I miss it 
already. LOL!


Thank you for taking the time to read this. I really hope someone can help.

Terri

facetime calling question

I have a very easy cell phone number that I want to keep for ever. So 
I'm wondering if you can face time with someone that you might not want 
to have your actual number and use your apple ID instead?

Subject: iPhone 6 Battery Gauge Gone Wacko



Hey all,

The subject line says it all. The battery indicator on my iPhone 6 has been 
saying 100% all day long and it finally shut down about half an hour ago 
without any warning.  I don't know if the battery's shot or if the gauge 
somehow needs to be recalibrated. Earlir today I did a hard reset using both 
the home and power buttons held down for 6 seconds or so thinking that maybe 
the gauge would reset, but it didn't. So what do I do? Should I let it sit 
all night and then run it flat tomorrow and observe what the gauge does? 
Should I reset all settings? I've never run across this issue before so I'm 
in need of some good solid advice on this one. What say you?

Thanks in advance.

Re: capchas

Maybe it does work with IE and just didn't explicitly say it does.
Maybe I should just give it a go and see.

there is a paid service called Rumola that works fairly nicely. It costs 
about $1 for a yearly subscription. It also works on most types of capchas 
(there are at least 3 types that I know of where this isn't the case).

Re: Siri

[Chris Chaffin]

I will admit that working with Siri can be challenging, and it is true, it does 
make a difference how things are said.  But with a little practice, once you 
find out what works the best, Siri can be very helpful in achieving task 
quickly.
For example, when adding an appointment to my calendar, I learned that the 
following works the best for me.
I say, schedule, name of appointment,, at, time of appointment, day or date of 
appointment.

And I just tried to schedule an appointment at 4:45, and I did not have a 
problem.  I tried saying both, 4:45, as well as a quarter til five, and Siri 
did it both times.

Now, I will agree, Siri could use some improvements, and I do look forward to 
see what ios 10 might bring.
The way I look at it, even though Siri is definitely not perfect, I am just 
proud to have her assistance to do what she can.  I know that with time she 
will continue to get better and do more.

Chris

Re: How to tell what is using your location services

[Mary Otten]

Thank you again, Mark. I had not turn background refresh off. I have not done 
so, and I want to put in a plug here for the search box in the settings app. I 
don't know how long it would've taken me to actually find that setting. But the 
settings search thing did it right away.

Re: How to tell what is using your location services

[Mary Otten]

Hi Keith, yes I know they're there are those apps that say always. I just 
authorized one, a GPS app I am beta testing. In the explanation for what 
"always" means, they say it refers to when the app is running in the 
background. So, if the app is closed out of the app switcher, really closed, it 
shouldn't be needing services. Or so that explanation implied to me anyway.

You can make a screenshot using home+sleep/wake (lock button,) then use 
TapTapSee on that image. If you’re lucky, the sighted person, or bot, or

RE: recording apps

If they seriously want to find a developer to take this over they might want to 
contact Rob from Today in iOS Podcast with their story/circumstances. He has a

Re: Abridged summary of viphone@googlegroups.com - 150 updates in 33 topics

['ChalmersAS' via VIPhone]

Hello

Sorry, missed this post.

I just bought two bands from Amazon. They were both by Jetech, one was a 
leather loop at just under £20 and a Milanese loop for about £12. I haven’t 
seen the real Apple  bands, but they seem good enough to me. I particularly 
like the ease with which one can adjust them during the day as the aged old 
paws swell up.

I should say I am notoriously allergic to watch straps and had to be careful 
not to wear the original strap that came with my Sports  too long. I dont seem 
to be having a problem at all with the leather strap. I have yet to wear the 
Milanese loop for any prolonged length of time. 

I was showing a sighted person the Milanese band today and they said it looked 
like a satin ribbon from a distance. Weird, these sighted folks.

Best

Adrienne

Hello from the Team at AppleVis,

This email is to notify you that CEO Greta & Starks Apps has posted a new forum 
topic on AppleVis.

Post Title: Introducing Greta & Starks, iOS apps to make the cinema accessible 
to the blind and deaf

Greta & Starks are two iOS apps that enable people with sight or hearing loss 
to experience fully accessible cinema. Starks also includes foreign language 
subtitles for an international audience.

GRETA & STARKS are special apps, as they play the existing audio description 
(AD) or subtitles for hard-of-hearing individuals and people with hearing lost 
(SDH) at any time, place, or screening - in indoor and outdoor cinemas, at 
home, at school etc. – simply, using one’s own smart device. Greta whispers 
audio descriptions, and Starks plays subtitles.

The only precondition is that the distributors have engaged our company to make 
the films fully accessible. Up until now, we were able to offer access to more 
than 113 movies.

RE: Feedly app

[M. Taylor]

Hello Mary,

1.
For whatever reason, Firefox cannot access the Feedly.com website--at least, 
not on my Windows 7 PC.  Internet Explorer, 11, however brings it up just fine.

2.
In iOS, open Safari and browse to the Feedly.com website.  After the page is 
loaded, simply single-finger, double-tap and hold the Reload button, in order 
to request the Desktop version of the site.  Once done, you can find the login 
button and sign into your account.  

Mark

Subject: Feedly app

Has anybody had luck with the feedly app? I installed it on my iPhone and 
opened it, and I'm getting a blank screen. Voiceover isn't seeing anything. I'm 
trying to find a way to access feedly, so that I can change my password. I 
thought I remembered it. I have been using the Newsify app for a long time via 
featly. But when I tried to sign in using an android app that also will access 
feedly, I was told it was invalid so I need to get into feedly and tell it I 
forgot my password, so I can get a new one. Can't login to their website, 
because they just say get the app and give me a link. Any help would be 
appreciated. I was really sure I remembered this password, but that android app 
is insisting not, so there you go.

RE: How to tell what is using your location services

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

Hi,

I know when some apps ask for permission to location services, they specify, 
"Only when app is running," but other apps specify , "Always allow access to 
Location Services." Off the top of my head, I can't give any examples other 
than perhaps  I do recall that the app "Where to" is one of the Always apps. 
And some of the Weather Alert apps may be like this, too.

Keith

Hello Mary,

You know, you raise an interesting subject that has been in the back of my mind 
for quite some time but in the reverse, in my case.  When I look at my friends' 
phones, I very often see the location service indicator in their status bar 
even when, like you, a location based app is not being used.  

However, although I use many of the same apps as they, and doubtless countless 
others, I never, and I do mean, never, see the location services indicator in 
my phone's status bar when those apps are either closed or not tracking my 
location.

The only thing that I can contribute to this is that I have disabled the 
Background App Refresh service, on my phone.

 Often enough to be irritating, I noticed that location services are on, when I 
don't have any app open or in the app switcher that has been authorized to use 
them, such as a Weather app, the GPS app, etc. I have a lot of apps that are 
not authorized to use location services. I have other apps that are 
specifically authorized to use location services only when they're open and 
being used. And then there are those irritating ones that don't give you that 
choice, they say always or never. I don't like that, and I do have a GPS app 
and only offers that choice. I'm very careful to close the app out completely 
so that it's not running in the background sucking down location service 
battery usage but often, particularly in the morning, when I wake up my phone 
and take it out of airplane mode, I find that location services are on. 
Sometimes, just locking the screen and unlocking it is enough to make the 
location services tracking notice go away. But other times, it is not. Once, 
the only way I was able to get rid of it was to reboot the phone. I would love 
to know why this is happening.

Re: Feedly app

[Mary Otten]

Well, at some point, I must have been able to access Feedly. I have a password 
there. And I certainly can't do it from windows either. So this is really very 
strange. How do you get in there and change your password? or I guess more 
accurately, how do you cause it to let you request a new one?

I once tried the Feedly app and had no better success than you have.
Interacting with it using Windows was no better.  If you discovr a way to

RE: [AppleVis Subscription] New Forum Topic: Introducing Greta & Starks, iOS apps to make the cinema accessible to the blind and deaf

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Very strange, the link provided for Greta is from the US app store, but the app 
description is in German. Good for me, I guess, as I am bilingual in Germany 
and English, but strange nonetheless.

Hello from the Team at AppleVis,

This email is to notify you that CEO Greta & Starks Apps has posted a new forum 
topic on AppleVis.

Post Title: Introducing Greta & Starks, iOS apps to make the cinema accessible 
to the blind and deaf

Greta & Starks are two iOS apps that enable people with sight or hearing loss 
to experience fully accessible cinema. Starks also includes foreign language 
subtitles for an international audience.

GRETA & STARKS are special apps, as they play the existing audio description 
(AD) or subtitles for hard-of-hearing individuals and people with hearing lost 
(SDH) at any time, place, or screening - in indoor and outdoor cinemas, at 
home, at school etc. – simply, using one’s own smart device. Greta whispers 
audio descriptions, and Starks plays subtitles.

The only precondition is that the distributors have engaged our company to make 
the films fully accessible. Up until now, we were able to offer access to more 
than 113 movies.

Re: Siri

[Paras]

Yes, the quality of ciri has gone down drastically.
I usually use braille screen input to type my messages.
Ciri needs to get way better.

Re: Siri

[Wayne Merritt]

One big problem with Siri which needs to be addressed is it cannot
infrer context. For instance, if I ask Siri if it will rain today, I
get the answer that I wanted. If I then say, "How about tomorrow,"
Siri does not know what I am talking about. I haven't done extensive
testing on this, but there have been times when context has come up in
my chats with Siri. I am gradually using Siri more, though I am still
used to doing things on the phone manually. I think if Siri's ability
to understand context, compound sentences/requests, and other
conversation things that we use everyday were to be improved, then
Siri could equal other tools like Alexa in its usefulness.

Text Grabber & Image to Text

[Traci Duncan]

Hi group, 2 things here…


I just reinstalled Image to Text.  It doesn’t seem to be working.  I try to 
email the results to myself and the email cannot be sent.  Any ideas?

Also, I’m looking for up to date feedback on Text Grabber before I purchase.  
It’s strength seems to be in extracting text from images.  This is something I 
need pretty frequently.  What has been your experiences?  I haven’t seen a post 
about this app for a while.

Thank you,
Traci

Feedly app

[Mary Otten]

Has anybody had luck with the feedly app? I installed it on my iPhone and 
opened it, and I'm getting a blank screen. Voiceover isn't seeing anything. I'm 
trying to find a way to access feedly, so that I can change my password. I 
thought I remembered it. I have been using the Newsify app for a long time via 
featly. But when I tried to sign in using an android app that also will access 
feedly, I was told it was invalid so I need to get into feedly and tell it I 
forgot my password, so I can get a new one. Can't login to their website, 
because they just say get the app and give me a link. Any help would be 
appreciated. I was really sure I remembered this password, but that android app 
is insisting not, so there you go.
Mary

Re: recording apps

[Woody Anna Dresner]

Hi Sieghard,

You make very good points. I bought the app a long time ago and it still works 
fine, but I can definitely understand being reluctant to buy it at this point. 
Since many of the apps that haven't been updated in a long time still work with 
the latest OS, I wouldn't want Apple to remove them automatically, especially 
because doing so would mean that people who use Apple's default settings would 
lose access to them if they restore from backups.

One thing I like about List Recorder is that it gives you the option to record 
in stereo and to record in uncompressed WAV. Does anyone know of another app 
that does this and is easy to use?

Best,
Anna

RE: Strange sonos issue

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Krister,

At the end of this message is the link for the beta download. This should work, 
just make sure you access it from the iOS device you want to install Sonos on. 
I would make sure you first delete your current Sonos app and then do this. If 
after you install again the Sonos app gives you an "untrusted enterprise 
developer" message when you try and open it You have to go to Settings > 
General > Device Management and allow access to it.

https://update-beta.sonos.com/software/wubtst/


Good luck,

How to tell what is using your location services

[Mary Otten]

 Often enough to be irritating, I noticed that location services are on, when I 
don't have any app open or in the app switcher that has been authorized to use 
them, such as a Weather app, the GPS app, etc. I have a lot of apps that are 
not authorized to use location services. I have other apps that are 
specifically authorized to use location services only when they're open and 
being used. And then there are those irritating ones that don't give you that 
choice, they say always or never. I don't like that, and I do have a GPS app 
and only offers that choice. I'm very careful to close the app out completely 
so that it's not running in the background sucking down location service 
battery usage but often, particularly in the morning, when I wake up my phone 
and take it out of airplane mode, I find that location services are on. 
Sometimes, just locking the screen and unlocking it is enough to make the 
location services tracking notice go away. But other times, it is not. Once, 
the only way I was able to get rid of it was to reboot the phone. I would love 
to know why this is happening.

RE: My iPod doc

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Try to press the volume up button on your iPhone a number of times when it is 
connected to the dock. Also make sure the volume on the dock is turned up.

Subject: My iPod doc

Hello once more,

I am hoping someone on here can help me figure something out. My boyfriend is 
terrified of technology. He does not feel he can help me. And my one friend I 
see pretty regularly, probably will not understand enough about the situation, 
to be of much help.
So you guys are honestly my only hope at the moment.

Ok, as some of you may remember, I have an older IPod doc. So I learned from a 
couple of you, what I needed to purchase, in order to make my 5S work with this 
docking station. I did get the part purchased, and there were no issues.

2 days later, I set my iPhone up there, and played some audio, for about 2 
hours.

Well, that was about a week ago. Tonight I decided to see if I could set it up, 
and listen to some live police feeds.
However, nothing would come out of the speakers, and when I sat the phone in 
place, I did not hear the chime, as if it were charging.

I had the app for the doc on my phone. It did not seem to be helpful, or very 
accessible. So I removed it.

Anyway, I tried to get my boyfriend to help me. He said that it was all lit up, 
and set on iPod. But he said it did not really seem if the buttons on the doc 
said anything. But we have very little lighting in here. So that was as far as 
I got.
I tried Spotify, just because I was feeling hopeful. But of course, I had the 
same results.

Does anyone know what the heck could be going on?
Could it have just quit working like that?
It is an IHome doc. It has a radio, and alarms. Which of course I do not need.

If I wanted to replace it, are there models that are more accessible than 
others?
And at what kind of price do these run?

Any thoughts, or help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Terri

RE: What is air-play, and how does it work?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

connected to a TV orhome theatre system with an HDMI cable.

Subject: What is air-play, and how does it work?

Hello everyone,

I was wondering, what is air-play, and how does it work?
Why would you want to use it?

I discovered it earlier tonight, when I was trying to get the IPhone to work 
with my IPod doc.

Anyway, it stated that I could use the IPhone audio, which I was already doing. 
Or that I could stream it as video, over my Apple TV.
Now if what I am listening to, is just audio, will it still play over my Apple 
TV?
I have an IPhone 5S, and a 3rd generation Apple TV.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Terri

Re: Siri

[Keith B.]

Sorry about the previous blank message. I usually use Siri either to get 
the weather or when I'm on the move and need to schedule an appointment or 
send a text. I have noticed a deterioration since IOS 9 came out. For 
example, I will attempt to schedule an appointment at 4:45, and Siri will 
insist on scheduling it for 4:00. I am trying to be patient, but this is 
beginning to be a problem. I usually only do this when I'm on the move, as 
stopping to use the Braille or onscreen keyboard is not convenient at those 
times. I ope this improves in IOS 10.

Hi,
My memory is very short, so could you please remind me of where i want to go to

Re: Siri

[Alan Paganelli]

I use Siri to post a message on my facebook time line when I don't need to open 
FB.  I just say to Siri, post to facebook.  She'll ask me what I want to say on 
my time line.  I'll dictate the text of what I want to say including saying 
period at the end of a sentense and use the voice enflection to indicate the 
end of the sentence.  To many people just dictate with out using voice 
enflection and saying period or coma where needed.  With a bit of practice, you 
be a pro at it in no time.

Re: Strange sonos issue

[Brett]

Hi Krista, 

I too had the same issue as you are. without being able to update the 
controler, I was unable to see the room settings ostion, so I couldn't tweak 
equalisers or create sterio pairs as needed. I therefore unticked the box about 
agreeing to participate in the beta program. I was asked to update again. Now 
all functionality is restored. 

besides, the beta looked mainly to be for android users, so I don't think we 
are missing out on anything here. 

Hope this helps, 
Brett. 


Cheers Brett.

Re: Siri

[Deidre Muccio]

As someone once pointed out many months ago the thing with Siri is that you got 
to get the syntax correct meaning it doesn't recognize more natural speech but 
there's very certain way you have to ask a question to make it more likely 
you'll get the answer you're looking for

Re: What is air-play, and how does it work?

[Christopher Chaltain]

AirPlay let's you stream audio and video to an AirPlay capable device 
over wifi, such as speakers, Apple TV, a home theater system and so on.

Hello everyone,

I was wondering, what is air-play, and how does it work?
Why would you want to use it?

I discovered it earlier tonight, when I was trying to get the IPhone to work 
with my IPod doc.

Anyway, it stated that I could use the IPhone audio, which I was already doing. 
Or that I could stream it as video, over my Apple TV.
Now if what I am listening to, is just audio, will it still play over my Apple 
TV?
I have an IPhone 5S, and a 3rd generation Apple TV.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

My iPod doc

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello once more,

I am hoping someone on here can help me figure something out. My boyfriend is 
terrified of technology. He does not feel he can help me. And my one friend I 
see pretty regularly, probably will not understand enough about the situation, 
to be of much help.
So you guys are honestly my only hope at the moment.

Ok, as some of you may remember, I have an older IPod doc. So I learned from a 
couple of you, what I needed to purchase, in order to make my 5S work with this 
docking station. I did get the part purchased, and there were no issues.

2 days later, I set my iPhone up there, and played some audio, for about 2 
hours.

Well, that was about a week ago. Tonight I decided to see if I could set it up, 
and listen to some live police feeds.
However, nothing would come out of the speakers, and when I sat the phone in 
place, I did not hear the chime, as if it were charging.

I had the app for the doc on my phone. It did not seem to be helpful, or very 
accessible. So I removed it.

Anyway, I tried to get my boyfriend to help me. He said that it was all lit up, 
and set on iPod. But he said it did not really seem if the buttons on the doc 
said anything. But we have very little lighting in here. So that was as far as 
I got.
I tried Spotify, just because I was feeling hopeful. But of course, I had the 
same results.

Does anyone know what the heck could be going on?
Could it have just quit working like that?
It is an IHome doc. It has a radio, and alarms. Which of course I do not need.

If I wanted to replace it, are there models that are more accessible than 
others?
And at what kind of price do these run?

Any thoughts, or help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Terri
