Where is the "send" button?

2016-08-27 Thread Jewel
I know where it used to be, but I have just created a gmail account for my 5S 
iPhone, and I cannot 
find "send" anywhere.  I am sure that it must be lurking in some corner, but 
just where that corner 
might be is eluding me.

Re: "Location tracking on" is back again

2016-08-27 Thread Shai
Hi,
The setting that Mark suggested was to disable background app refresh.
This can be found in settings/general/background app refresh. He
mentioned that toggling it to off should remedy your location always
tracking issue in the status bar.
Hope that helps

Re: "Location tracking on" is back again

2016-08-27 Thread Jan Kleinhans
Hi

This might be one of the settings under system settings within location 
services.  There are things like cellular services wanting to use location 
services, wifi wanting to use this, traffic routing wanting to use it.  Might 
it have been one of those?

  If you go to settings, privacy, location services you can turn off any of 
your apps that you don't to use your location. 


  Donna


No. Turning off location services means no apps ever get location 
information. That is not the way to go if you have GPS apps for instants or 
other applications, maybe a local news application or whatever, that need your 
location. Even the weather app needs your location. This was something probably 
under privacy.

I think that turning off the setting I spoke about earlier should do the trick.

Re: E-Mail Client

2016-08-27 Thread englishrider91
Holy cow! I just tried it, and you're right! Awesome! I hope I can still do 
something like this in iOS 10 when the new interface comes out. Call me weird, 
but I like having to go into the thread to read email, then back out of it to 
go to the next thread. I'm the type of person (when I actually ever use the 
computer for email these days) opens the message/thread in a new tab to read 
it. That way I can keep my place in the inbox or folder that I'm in, then just 
reply to the message in that new tab, then close the tab and go on my way with 
the next, email.

Ari

Hi Adam. I've never heard of an app that does that, but I've heard of apps that 
can announce time every 15 minutes. The one I use is called Chime and it costs 
I think $.99. Just out of curiosity, why would you want the time to announce 
every 5 minutes?

 Why are you saying people would be hopping mad if Apple came out with
 an upgraded smaller form factor phone just six months after the SE
 came out? Are you talking about the same people who get mad when
 something goes on sale after they paid full price for it? I never got
 this reasoning since this would mean the only way to make everyone
 happy is to never put something on sale. I'd assume anyone who knows
 Apple knows they release new phones in the fall, so I'd think anyone
 who bought an SE would know that there would be a chance Apple might
 include a smaller form factor phone in this fall's line up. I don't
 think Apple would ever promise not to refresh a phone model any more
 frequently than once a year. I also don't see what anyone who has an
 SE would be missing out on if Apple upgraded the specs of the SE this
 fall.

Got ya. Do you know if this is documented anywhere? I'd like to see what 
Apple says about this policy. I don't doubt anyone, I'm just curious 
what the Apple legalese says. I've searched for it, but I haven't come 
up with the right set of search terms and been able to find it.

Hi Rose, what phone do you have? Which network are you on? Those bar
readings are not all that accurate. There is another way where you can
actually get the true signal reading. But of course, I don't remember what
it is, and it may very from carrier to carrier. If you have an older phone
with an older radio, and your visitors have newer phones, that may account
for the difference, or at least some of it.

Could you please explain how to use this app? I downloaded it but I don't 
understand it says add app shopper as a friend to get started and then it says 
that it has the tabs but where do you find out which apps are actually free are 
they the ones that are already written when you first open the app? Do I need 
to do anything else? Thank you so much.
God bless,

Wren Langley

Re: Looking for a list for beta testers who also use VO

There is a list currently operating.
A friend of mine has been waiting over a month to be subscribed.
I've written to the owner suggesting that I could set up a list if he is 
too busy but have heard nothing and that was weeks ago.

Signing up for the Apple Beta

2016-08-27 Thread Mary Otten
Now that we are so close to the release of iOS 10, I decided to take a flyer on 
the beta using my iPad too. I should say my iPad mini two, since I don't know 
that the iPad 2 is even eligible for this beta, and in any case, I don't have 
an iPad too. So I would like to hear from someone off the list who might be 
able to shed light on the following. I went to the beta site and went to sign 
up with my Apple ID. I very carefully entered my Apple ID and very carefully 
entered my password. I was told either my ID or password was incorrect. I have 
repeated this process twice more being extremely careful each time. And each 
time the result is the same. I have had and used this Apple ID ever since I got 
my first device years ago. And I have never had a problem with it, nor have I 
changed the password. The many hundreds of dollars worth of stuff I bought from 
the various stores attest to the fact that I have had no problem entering my 
password upon request. Smile. I don't think I am missing a step, that is 
something I would have to do before trying to sign up for the beta with my ID. 
I didn't see anything on the first page of the beta site. So can someone who 
has done this please enlighten me as to what I may be doing wrong.
Mary

Can not enter pass code on iPhone

2016-08-27 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 Perhaps someone can write to me off list at vicki.ratcli...@gmail.com to 
give suggestions.

 Yesterday I had my iPhone 5 on and when taking Amtrak home charged the 
phone.  When starting to charge it, I noticed that there was not any speech and 
I tried to enter the pass code when the screen reader finally worked.  When 
plugging the phone in to the mac today, it said “iphone disabled” and even last 
night after the speech came on, I could not enter a code.

 The phone is backed up to iTunes but iTunes does not connect to it using 
the mac since I can not enter the pass code.  Calling Apple, I learned that I 
would have to erase the phone and then restore it through iTunes.

 Will voiceover work using recovery mode or what is the best way to erase 
and restore the phone.  I have not forgotten the code at all but now do not 
have use of a phone.

 Thanks for any input that you can provide.

Vicki Ratcliffe

Re: E-Mail Client

2016-08-27 Thread Christopher Chaltain
From my experience, you don't need to find anything when the new 
message is pulled up on your screen, just do a two finger swipe up and 
it'll start reading from the beginning of the message. Note this doesn't 
work if the beginning of the message doesn't appear on the first screen, 
such as when you have a very long list of recipients. This doesn't have 
anything to do with containers. I think it's just a tweak built into 
VoiceOver for the Mail app. I prefer this behavior, since I seldom want 
to automatically read the headers.

Hi!

There's an article on the Cool Blind Tech website about what's new
in incoming iOS 10. Amongst other things, it says message view in
Mail app is not separated by message as it was till now. Now it is
more like conversation view similar to text and iMessages and
there is a new option in rotor called "message" which will enable
you to switch between messages in conversation.

I'm not sure will I like this or not, I like clean separate
messages and that's why I don't use Gmail app. I don't even like
threads and I'm using it only for some mail groups I'm subscribed to.

Hi!

@Sieghard; I was mentioning iOS meaning iPhone, iPod Touch
or iPad, it would probably work on all iOS devices.

@Mary; I like the stock app very much but there's gonna be
a large turnaround in iOS 10 with its interface so I'm
looking for alternatives. I used Aquamail on some Android
devices and I like its options, features and tones of
settings for fine tuning its operativity.

I agree Android approach to navigating and editing is
harder to handle than iOS but as you correctly said, it
doesn't have to do anything with the app itself. Regarding
dictation, I'm getting far better results with Google
Speech Input or whatever is it called in English than Siri
Dictation, atleast for my native language.

I can manage multiple messages on both apps in pretty
similar way so I don't know did you played with Aquamail
settins?

That was a specific change made a couple of iOS versions ago for VoiceOver

Hi!

There's an article on the Cool Blind Tech website about what's new in incoming 
iOS 10. Amongst other things, it says message view in Mail app is not separated 
by message as it was till now. Now it is more like conversation view similar to 
text and iMessages and there is a new option in rotor called "message" which 
will enable you to switch between messages in conversation.

I'm not sure will I like this or not, I like clean separate messages and that's 
why I don't use Gmail app. I don't even like threads and I'm using it only for 
some mail groups I'm subscribed to.

@Sieghard; I was mentioning iOS meaning iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, it would

@Mary; I like the stock app very much but there's gonna be a large turnaround

on some Android devices and I like its options, features and tones of settings 
for fine tuning its operativity.

I agree Android approach to navigating and editing is harder to handle than iOS 
but as you correctly said, it doesn't have to do anything with the app itself. 
Regarding dictation, I'm getting far better results with Google Speech Input or 
whatever is it called in English than Siri Dictation, atleast for my native

I can manage multiple messages on both apps in pretty similar way so I don't

Re: E-Mail Client

2016-08-27 Thread englishrider91
This new mail interface sounds like it'll be confusing. Right now, I like being 
able to find the person's name, then do a two-finger flick up to read the 
message content. For some reason that I don't understand, this behaves 
differently in the mail app than anywhere else in iOS. This gesture is supposed 
to read the entire screen, but when done in the mail app once on the person's 
name, it skips the header information and just reads the message. Not that I'm 
complaining about that or anything; it's just odd. Maybe it has something to do 
with these container things in iOS? I don't have that setting in my rotor, but 
maybe it still counts as a container even if that option isn't on your rotor. 
Anyway, I think I'm going to find this new mail interface rather annoying. I'm 
going to read Jonathan Mosen's iOS 10 Without the Eye first before updating, as 
well as listen to the podcasts released by AppleVis.

RE: Fantastical 2

2016-08-27 Thread Richard Turner
Hi,
In the settings for Fantastical, do you have reminders turned on?

If you want both the month view and reminders if reminders is turned on, the 
upper half of the screen is the month view, then about midway down the screen 
you will find reminders, and below that is each appointment in order.

Or, if you are in the month view, which sounds like you are, touch on the spot 
just below where it says "August 2016" which should be Wednesday, or something 
and then immediately do a three finger swipe down.
That switches to the Day Ticker.

Then, all your appointments will be in a list.

HTH,
Richard

No. Turning off location services means no apps ever get location information. 
That is not the way to go if you have GPS apps for instants or other 
applications, maybe a local news application or whatever, that need your 
location. Even the weather app needs your location. This was something probably 
under privacy.

Outlook.com

2016-08-27 Thread Terri Stimmel
Hello everybody,

I was wondering if anyone who uses outlook, is having any issues today? For 
some reason, my phone won't alert me of messages, unless I open the app.
Also, I have Windows 7 on my laptop, and are you Thunderbird. It's not updating 
either, unless I ask it to.
Then everyone's in a while, if I am going through the mail on my laptop, I did 
the strange message. I know I can't remember it word from word. But it said 
something like, Thunderbird has had an error, and Dennis says something about 
somebody your messages that you requested might have been lost.
But I don't think I have lost anything. Although it is difficult to know, 
because I don't know all the mail that has come through my list today.

Anyway, I just wondered if anyone else is having a problem? If so, is this 
likely and outlook is you. I would assume so, since I am having a problem and 
you different places

Any help with this would be very much appreciated. I hope it is just an outlook 
issue that will resolve itself. Or there is something I can do to fix it. I 
like my Outlook account. Our use it most of the time, even though I still have 
my Gmail account is back up. But most everything has been switched out look.

I bought Fantastical 2 because it sounded great, but how do I go 
directly to a list giving me only my pending appointments?  I can 
find last month, next year, next month ... and all I want to see is 
what is pending.  So far fantastical isn't giving me any more than 
the native calendar.  I'm sure it's user error.  could someone please

Descriptive Video on Amazon Prime?

2016-08-27 Thread 'ChalmersAS' via VIPhone
Hi, sorry, just catching up with emails.

I tried to get something out of Amazon via Twitter, as they are sometimes more 
willing to reply because of the public nature of the communication. They just 
didn’t understand the problem. It’s the Kindle thing all over again.

Oddly enough, I have a sighted friend who lives in India for much of the year 
and she negotiated a substantial discount on her Prime membership because she 
wasn’t able to take advantage of various of the Prime features. If they can’t 
be bothered to provide us with described video content, maybe they should give 
us a discount too ?

I suppose if they ever did respond to this, they would come up with some 
mendacious reason why it isn’t technically possible. Doesn’t seem to stop 
Netflix and hooray for them.

Also, for listers in the US, any chance the FCC could get stuck into this as an 
issue? That was the only thing that got Amazon moving on Kindle.

Best 

Adrienne

Re: multtiple topics: apple tv, netflicks, hulu, etc.

2016-08-27 Thread Richard Turner
In short, not all, or even most, shows on the major networks are available on 
Netflix.
Sometimes you wait a year or more before a TV series shows up on Netflix.
All the ones you mentioned, Netflix, Hulu, and MLB, are subscriptions. The apps 
are free, but only useful with a paid subscription.
If you get the Apple TV, you will be able to use the VoiceOver feature to enter 
your login information for the various subscriptions.
With the 3rd Generation Apple TV, you could also sync a Bluetooth keyboard, 
which made account info entry much easier.
That's what I think I know.
HTH,
Richard

We have verizon fios.

We are ttold by year's end there will be taling menus. I'll believe it whenn it 
happens.

So I am intterested in apple tv. What is the cost for the current version?

I understand tthat apple tv let's you use netflicks, huulu, etc.

Are the cost off these apps in addition to the base apple price, or included in 
the base price?

I would like to"cut the cord" next summer with fios when my contract ends and 
use apple tv and or apps.

I am not clear as to the types of programs available on netflicks, hulu, etc. 
If these apps include the regular 4 major network programms, what is the delay 
or lag time to access the shows after their orifinal network broadcast?

My wife recorded big brother the other night. It was interupted by weather 
bulletins, so the next day on her phone she watched it on the cbs app for free. 
Why would someone pay for netflicks or huluu if programs are free on network 
apps?


and I am a big mlb fan and we do not have the mlb network on fios. I understand 
it is available with apple tv. Would that be a add on cost.


thank ou for any assistance with any or all of this.

multtiple topics: apple tv, netflicks, hulu, etc.

2016-08-27 Thread david gross
I have numerous naive questions.

We purchased a wi fi ready tv.

We have never used that feature as of yet.

My wife who is low vision records a lot on the dvr.

We have verizon fios.

We are ttold by year's end there will be taling menus. I'll believe it whenn it 
happens.

So I am intterested in apple tv. What is the cost for the current version?

I understand tthat apple tv let's you use netflicks, huulu, etc.

Are the cost off these apps in addition to the base apple price, or included in 
the base price?

I would like to"cut the cord" next summer with fios when my contract ends and 
use apple tv and or apps.

I am not clear as to the types of programs available on netflicks, hulu, etc. 
If these apps include the regular 4 major network programms, what is the delay 
or lag time to access the shows after their orifinal network broadcast?

My wife recorded big brother the other night. It was interupted by weather 
bulletins, so the next day on her phone she watched it on the cbs app for free. 
Why would someone pay for netflicks or huluu if programs are free on network 
apps?


and I am a big mlb fan and we do not have the mlb network on fios. I understand 
it is available with apple tv. Would that be a add on cost.


thank ou for any assistance with any or all of this.

Any rumors heard whether Apple will be providing bluetooth ear buds with iPhone 7?

2016-08-27 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
HI,

Just curious if anyone has heard rumors whther Apple will be providing 
Bluetooth ear buds with iPhone 7, if they do in fact remove the headphone jack, 
which sounds as if that is being done.

Thanks in advance, Keith

There's an article on the Cool Blind Tech website about what's new in incoming

text and iMessages and there is a new option in rotor called "message" which 
will enable you to switch between messages in conversation.

I'm not sure will I like this or not, I like clean separate messages and that's 
why I don't use Gmail app. I don't even like threads and I'm using it only for

I agree Android approach to navigating and editing is harder to handle than iOS 
but as you correctly said, it doesn't have to do anything with the app itself. 
Regarding dictation, I'm getting far better results with Google Speech Input or 
whatever is it called in English than Siri Dictation, atleast for my native

I can manage multiple messages on both apps in pretty similar way so I don't

I like the fact that I can easily stop dictation in iOS. I like the fact that I 
get a tone telling me that dictation has stopped. I don't get that with 
android, except when doing Google voice searches. I also find it easier to get

Re: update on my sound problem

2016-08-27 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Yes, I think this would work. I'll just have to remember after the 
meeting that I toggled off VoiceOver. I wouldn't be surprised if I 
forget the first few times and reset my phone thinking VoiceOver was hung.


Ideally, I'd like VoiceOver to respect the mute switch for all automatic 
notifications. I'd still like VoiceOver to talk to me when I'm actually 
interacting with the phone, even if the mute switch is on.

I always wanted the mute switch, when activated, to turn off all sounds 
generated by alerts and notifications, including VoiceOver, and this is how it 
worked for me for a very short period of time, maybe a few months with IOS 7. 
I'm not sure how Apple intended this to work though, and I've always found it 
to be inconsistent. This has always been a bit frustrating for me since I want 
to have my phone on in meetings, so I can step out when I get a notification 
that I'm expecting, but still have it silent so it doesn't interrupt the 
meeting. I also want to be able to toggle this behavior on and off and not have 
to go down a settings tree to find this switch. I must admit that after a year 
or so of not being able to figure out what combination of settings would get me 
the behavior I wanted, even through IOS updates, I kind of gave up trying, and 
I think I need to go back and give Ari's suggestion another chance.

mute speech. This way, you still get notifications but they aren't
spoken and no sound comes through. I use this a lot when taking a nap
or in a movie. I still get all my notices but only have to worry about
the vibrations coming through. This would be an option if you did not
want to turn Do Not Disturb on but you wanted to not be alerted by
voice or sound when getting a notification. Perhaps there is no one
perfect solution in this situation.

Do not disturb and the mute switch are a bit different. Mute
silences the sounds from your phone and is on until you switch it off.

Do not disturb can be set up on a schedule, and it can be
customized, so for example, you can have the phone ring if anyone in
your favorites calls you but not otherwise. You can also have calls
go through if their from the same person and you get three of them in a short

OK. I don't know anything about Verizon's network. I know that there have been 
many improvements in T-Mobile over the last couple of years. A lot of those 
have to do with band 12. And with older phones, including your six, band 12 
wasn't available. In that case, an upgrade would probably have done a lot of 
good for you, assuming band 12 is in your area of course.

2016-08-27 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Is this really Apple's rule? I couldn't find anything on line with a 
quick web search. I remember everyone was surprised when Apple continued 
to support the 4S with IOS 9, which would have been four years and not 
five, if the 4S would have stopped at IOS 8.


Whether it's a rule or not, and whether it's four or five years, Apple's 
support for older hardware is truly outstanding in the mobile space.


I would agree that if you're worried about whether you get an IOS 
upgrade or the SE in 2020 then you should wait to see what the fall 
brings. As Sieghard says though, the SE will still work on the last 
version of IOS it supports even if you can't move up to the next 
version. Also, how many people hold on to their smart phones that long 
in the first place? I've seen us 4S users on this list get responses 
that we should just upgrade, even when asking questions that have 
nothing to do with the 4S and it's hardware.

that is 5 or 6 or even 7 years old will most likely need a new battery and why 
pay for that if you could get whatever iPhone is free on contract. The 
exception here would be somebody who maybe is happy to use the iPhone 4S with a 
prepaid service or with a low-cost MVNO. My Mom has an iPad 2 from 2011 which 
also will not get iOS 10 this year. She already asked me if she could still use 
it and I said that of course she can since while it is a bit slow compared to 
new devices, it is still going strong.

Subject: Re: Need opinions about waiting for iPhone 7 or getting SE

Missing from this discussion is that Apple stops providing upgrade ability to 
iPhones after five years.  The SE is based on 2015 technology and likely cannot 
accept the new iOS in 2020.  The iPhone 7 will likely not be able to receive a 
new iOS in 2021, based on past Apple practice.  For example, the 4s will not be 
able to accept iOS 10 that will be out later this year.

from the other smart phone manufacturers who line their product
releases up with the show in Barcelona, but I also know that operating

Anyhow, when it comes down to it Apple couldn't care less if they

iPad a few years ago. Also, for whatever it's worth, I don't think
they are going to release a new 4 inch phone in September, at this

Well, Apple did not release the iPhone SE when it released its other
phones last fall. It waited several months before doing so. And, when
the phone was released, there was a major back up, so people waited
weeks before getting their phones. That is fairly typical for Apple
phone releases, and they admitted that they underestimated the demand
for this particular phone. So, you have a case where people just
purchased phone maybe in June or July, and here we are in September
almost, traditional iPhone release time. If Apple releases a new SE
now in sync with all of its other phone releases, I think the folks
who purchased their phones recently are going to be upset. You know,
Apple, why didn't you release this phone last fall with all of the
others? Why did you wait over half a year, then release the phone, and right on 
top of it, release anoth

OK. I don't know anything about Verizon's network. I know that there have been 
many improvements in T-Mobile over the last couple of years. A lot of those 
have to do with band 12. And with older phones, including your six, band 12 
wasn't available. In that case, an upgrade would probably have done a lot of 
good for you, assuming band 12 is in your area of course.

Dictation may not work in 9.3.4, but it definitely worked in previous iOS 9

Subject: Apple Confirms iOS 9.3.4 Has A Nasty Surprise

 

I thought many of you would be interested in the following article:

Apple Confirms iOS 9.3.4 Has A Nasty Surprise

The iPhone 7 is very close and the all singing all dancing iOS 10 will come 
with it. But right now most iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users are on iOS 9.3.4 
and Apple has confirmed to me it contains a nasty surprise that, for millions, 
will never be fixed… 

‘Great Features’ and ‘Nasty Surprises’ are my regular columns investigating 
operating system updates for the best features / biggest problems hidden behind 
the headlines.

The problem in iOS 9.3.4 is an incompatibility between VoiceOver and voice 
dictation which is hitting disabled and, in particular, blind users hard. In 
short: with VoiceOver enabled (it describes everything on your screen with a 
triple press of the home button) voice dictation is broken producing duplicate 
and often muddled words - notably when quick replying to messages in the 
notification centre.

iOS 9.3.4. Image credit: Apple 

Having been contacted by several blind users about this problem, they told me 
the only workaround is to turn off VoiceOver, turn on dictation, speak, turn 
off dictation then turn VoiceOver back on. This is about 10 steps and 
unfortunately for the blind, turning off VoiceOver is a very risky move yet 
voice dictation is essential. 

Perhaps the most interesting aspect to all of this, however, are claims this 
feature has been broken since the original launch of iOS 9 in September 2015 
and Apple has not attempted to fixed it in any subsequent upgrade. 

In response I contacted Apple and the company confirmed to me the fault does 
exist in iOS 9.3.4, though it would not say if the bug could be traced back 
further. Apple also had good and bad news for affected users.

VoiceOver is iOS is crucial for disabled iPhone and iPad users, but it breaks 
voice dictation - an equally important feature for them. Image credit: Apple 

The good news is the bug will be fixed in iOS 10 (and is already fixed in the 
latest iOS 10 public beta). The bad news is there are no plans to fix the bug 
in iOS 9 and with iPhone 4S, iPad Mini, iPad 3rd gen and iPod touch 5th gen 
users not entitled to iOS 10 upgrades, users of those devices will be left with 
the bug until they buy something new.

Needless to say this won’t be a problem for many users who upgrade regularly, 
but as one blind user told me: typically their need to have the latest cutting 
edge products is greatly diminished. 

Consequently if Apple can fix the bug in iOS 10, I’d argue the company should 
also fix it in iOS 9 before leaving a generation of devices and a subset of 
users stranded. This would be a commendable way to sign off an version of iOS 
well known for its high profile problems, before the company moves on to its 
latest and greatest iPhone and iOS plans...

RE: Need opinions about waiting for iPhone 7 or getting SE

2016-08-27 Thread Rose Combs
If I can I will wait and see what the 7 has that I might want, then I will 
decide which phone I wish to have, if I get a new one.  Everyone else he gets 
full signal it seems, I get 2 bars, they keep assuring me it isn't my phone 
but, if visitors get 4-5 bars and I get 2, something has to be wrong somewhere.

Why are you saying people would be hopping mad if Apple came out with an

out? Are you talking about the same people who get mad when something 
goes on sale after they paid full price for it? I never got this

the Pro version.

RE: update on my sound problem

2016-08-27 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
I usually just turn on the Mute switch and then 3-finger double tap to turn off 
speech. Vibrations still come through.

Wouldn't this do what you describe below as desirable?

Subject: Re: update on my sound problem

I always wanted the mute switch, when activated, to turn off all sounds 
generated by alerts and notifications, including VoiceOver, and this is how it 
worked for me for a very short period of time, maybe a few months with IOS 7. 
I'm not sure how Apple intended this to work though, and I've always found it 
to be inconsistent. This has always been a bit frustrating for me since I want 
to have my phone on in meetings, so I can step out when I get a notification 
that I'm expecting, but still have it silent so it doesn't interrupt the 
meeting. I also want to be able to toggle this behavior on and off and not have 
to go down a settings tree to find this switch. I must admit that after a year 
or so of not being able to figure out what combination of settings would get me 
the behavior I wanted, even through IOS updates, I kind of gave up trying, and 
I think I need to go back and give Ari's suggestion another chance.

 Are you talking about the same people who get mad when something goes on

 this would mean the only way to make everyone happy is to never put
 something on sale. I'd assume anyone who knows Apple knows they release
 new phones in the fall, so I'd think anyone who bought an SE would know
 that there would be a chance Apple might include a smaller form factor
 phone in this fall's line up. I don't think Apple would ever promise not
 to refresh a phone model any more frequently than once a year. I also
 don't see what anyone who has an SE would be missing out on if Apple
 upgraded the specs of the SE this fall.

RE: Woopower Mini Bluetooth Speaker

2016-08-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I looked this up on Amazon.ca and it’s one of these rip-off deals. Robert said 
it costs $25 in the US on sale for $16, here on Amazon.ca it is listed for $74 
+ $6 or $8 shipping. It also says in the specs that it weighs 180 grams which I 
find would be way to heavy for me to wear it over a longer period of time. 
After all, my iPhone 6S Plus only weighs 192 grams which means if the 180 grams 
is indeed correct and you had a 6S Plus in one hand and this Bluetooth wrist 
speaker in the other you couldn’t tell the difference and I certainly wouldn’t 
want something on my wrist that is the weight of my 6S Plus. Robert, if you 
have a talking kitchen scale, could you weigh it and clarify, I have a feeling 
that what Amazon writes is not correct.

RE: 5 years? Re: Need opinions about waiting for iPhone 7 or getting SE

2016-08-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
The iPhone 5C was indeed released in 2013 alongside the 5S, but from a 
technology view it is more like iPhone 5 technology since it does not yet have 
a 64 bit processor. Anyhow, iOS 11 will come out in 2017 (next year) not in 
2018, that would be iOS 12. Therefore it is the iPhone 5 which still gets iOS 
10 this year, but not iOS 11 next year and as I said, I wouldn't be surprised 
if next year support for all non-64 Bit devices would be dropped, the 5S would 
still get iOS 11 but probably not iOS 12 in 2018.

  very interesting info on how Apple stops providing upgrades genrally after 
five years indeed! The 4S definitely didn't break this cycle, being 2011 
technology, thus i'd imagine that the 5C being 2013 technology, will only go up 
to iOS10? In 2018 when iOS11 comes out, they'll be no more updates for the 5C 
model?

RE: Need opinions about waiting for iPhone 7 or getting SE

2016-08-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Knowing that this is Apple's rule at this point it doesn't mean this will 
change. Also, if somebody who couldn't care less about the latest features had 
an iPhone 4S which still worked well for what they are doing they can still use 
it for years to come with iOS 9.3.5. Of course the reality is that a device 
that is 5 or 6 or even 7 years old will most likely need a new battery and why 
pay for that if you could get whatever iPhone is free on contract. The 
exception here would be somebody who maybe is happy to use the iPhone 4S with a 
prepaid service or with a low-cost MVNO. My Mom has an iPad 2 from 2011 which 
also will not get iOS 10 this year. She already asked me if she could still use 
it and I said that of course she can since while it is a bit slow compared to 
new devices, it is still going strong.

I've had this happen as well, but not very often. I just turn off speech with a 
three-finger double-tap, do a two-finger double-tap 
to sttart dictation, do another two-finger double-tap to stop dictation, then 
do another three-finger double-tap to turn speech back 
on when this issue comes up. Like I said, it's not too offen, and it's easy 
enough to deal with, if a bit annoying. What I'm more 
troubled by is the reports on AppleVis about battery life being reduced with 
iOS 9.3.4, in some cases quite seriously.

There's an article on the Cool Blind Tech website about what's new in incoming

text and iMessages and there is a new option in rotor called "message" which 
will enable you to switch between messages in conversation.

I'm not sure will I like this or not, I like clean separate messages and that's

 very interesting info on how Apple stops providing upgrades genrally 
after five years indeed! The 4S definitely didn't break this cycle, 
being 2011 technology, thus i'd imagine that the 5C being 2013 
technology, will only go up to iOS10? In 2018 when iOS11 comes out, 
they'll be no more updates for the 5C model?

Missing from this discussion is that Apple stops providing upgrade
ability to iPhones after five years.  The SE is based on 2015
technology and likely cannot accept the new iOS in 2020.  The iPhone 7
will likely not be able to receive a new iOS in 2021, based on past
Apple practice.  For example, the 4s will not be able to accept iOS 10
that will be out later this year.

Well, Apple did not release the iPhone SE when it released its other
phones last fall. It waited several months before doing so. And, when the
phone was released, there was a major back up, so people waited weeks
before getting their phones. That is fairly typical for Apple phone
releases, and they admitted that they underestimated the demand for this
particular phone. So, you have a case where people just purchased phone
maybe in June or July, and here we are in September almost, traditional
iPhone release time. If Apple releases a new SE now in sync with all of
its other phone releases, I think the folks who purchased their phones
recently are going to be upset. You know, Apple, why didn't you release
this phone last fall with all of the others? Why did you wait over half a
year, then release the phone, and right on top of it, release another one?
That's why I figure people would not be happy.

   Is there any reason to wait a few weeks to use my upgrade 
toward an iPhone 7, based on what is known? My iPHone 6 was 
brutally victimized by a car backing up today, and I am now faced 
with using my upgrade for an SE, or using my daughter’s old 5C 
until the iPHone 7 comes out. I don’t want the hassle of syncing 
two new phones in rather quick succession, so I am trying to figure 
out whether to just get the SE (I like the smaller screen), or wait 
and see with the iPHone 7. From what I’m able to gather, the main 
features of interest involve improved camera, which I do not care 
about, and unless there are any amazing features or improvements, I 
figure I may as well wait for the ten-year anniversary for Apple to 
wow me.


In short: 1. Take my daughter’s old 5C for a few weeks; or 2. Use 
my upgrade, get the SE, and wait for next year because the 7 isn’t 
worth wasting my upgrade or extra money.



TIA.

I've had this happen as well, but not very often. I just turn off speech 
with a three-finger double-tap, do a two-finger double-tap
to sttart dictation, do another two-finger double-tap to stop dictation, 
then do another three-finger double-tap to turn speech back
on when this issue comes up. Like I said, it's not too offen, and it's easy 
enough to deal with, if a bit annoying. What I'm more
troubled by is the reports on AppleVis about battery life being reduced with 
iOS 9.3.4, in some cases quite seriously.

What usually happens to me in those instances is that the dictation sort of

it back on, get rid of the junk and go on about my business. Sometimes the 
dictation hanging up lasts for a lot longer than just a
couple of seconds. I have confirmed this on my two devices that are on iOS

isn't just me and my devices. Indeed, my friend is cited, and so voice over

notification and/or an email when the app either drops in price or when the 
app has an update, depending on how you prefer to get notified, I have it 
set up where I get a notification on my device and I also get an email. I 
have gotten a lot of apps for free with this app that normally cost. You can 
also double tap on "I Have It" if you already own the app you have searched 
for and the app will keep track of all of your apps and alert you when there 
is an update.

Re: Need opinions about waiting for iPhone 7 or getting SE

2016-08-27 Thread Kelly Pierce
Missing from this discussion is that Apple stops providing upgrade
ability to iPhones after five years.  The SE is based on 2015
technology and likely cannot accept the new iOS in 2020.  The iPhone 7
will likely not be able to receive a new iOS in 2021, based on past
Apple practice.  For example, the 4s will not be able to accept iOS 10
that will be out later this year.

Hello everyone,

does not capture the voiceover.

I've had this happen as well, but not very often. I just turn off speech with a 
three-finger double-tap, do a two-finger double-tap 
to sttart dictation, do another two-finger double-tap to stop dictation, then 
do another three-finger double-tap to turn speech back 
on when this issue comes up. Like I said, it's not too offen, and it's easy 
enough to deal with, if a bit annoying. What I'm more 
troubled by is the reports on AppleVis about battery life being reduced with 
iOS 9.3.4, in some cases quite seriously.

What usually happens to me in those instances is that the dictation sort of

turn voiceover off, wait a couple of seconds, turn 
it back on, get rid of the junk and go on about my business. Sometimes the 
dictation hanging up lasts for a lot longer than just a 
couple of seconds. I have confirmed this on my two devices that are on iOS 9, 
as well as a friends iPhone 5s running iOS 9. So it 
isn't just me and my devices. Indeed, my friend is cited, and so voice over

Interesting how not a single message about this issue was posted on this list. 
Dictation may not work in 9.3.4, but it definitely 
worked in previous iOS 9 versions since I used it all the time before 
installing iOS 10 beta so I’m not sure why the article says

2016-08-27 Thread Gordan Radić

  
  
Hi, girls!
Long to short, iPhone SE is more less iPhone 6S in smaller case
  (5/5S design), with smaller screen and with no 3D Touch.
It is significantly cheaper, atleast in my country the SE is
  about 33% cheaper than 6S.
Since I use 6S Plus i can guarantee it is a really astonishing
  experience regarding speed and responsiveness and I wouldn't go
  for slower model.
So, the only thing you need to consider is do you prefer smaller
  or larger screen knowing both have some advantages and
  disadvantages plus do you need 3D Touch or not. Personally, I
  don't use it often, old habits die hard.

  for the other models.
 
Parenthetically,
  I have not had the nasty problem in 9.34, though I

  It’s far better than it used to be back in the 4S

Woopower Mini Bluetooth Speaker

2016-08-27 Thread Robert Doc Wright
earlier I saw a post informing us about a wrist band bluetooth speaker by BEM. 
I found another  on Amazon that worked right out of the box .


Woopower Mini Bluetooth Speaker Watch Wireless Speakers Bracelet Wristband Band 
for Mobile Phones Support MP3 Music Player, FM Radio, Hands-free Calls,
Self-timer, Anti-Lost Alarm for Sports (White)
$25.95
$16.95
Amazon Prime

This is accessible right out of the box. From just fumbling with the buttons I 
had it working and paired in a couple of minutes or less.  Imagine my surprise 
when it began speaking english although in an Asian accent. 

This is an amazing speaker and you would think that it was made specifically 
with blind consumers in mind.  
(Note that my references are for persons who wear their watches on their left 
arm.)
On the side closest to your hand there are 4 buttons.  working from the outer 
wrist to the inner I will number them 1, 2, 3 and 4.   On the arm side is a 
cover which is protecting the SD card slot and the USB CHARGE PORT.

Buttons: 
1 power/play/answer Hold it in for a count of 3 to turn it on or off. While on 
and pared press it once to play audio and again to pause. when a call comes in 
press once to answer.   

2.  volume down/track backwards  Hold down to lower volume. When music is 
playing press once to restart the track press twice quickly to go to the 
previous track.

3. Volume up /track forward  Hold down to raise the volume.  Press once to move 
to the next track.

4. mode  Hold for a count of 4 to toggle between iDevice and FM radio. It will 
verbably announce radio mode.
  (note: buttons 2 & 3 move you through the stations.
SD card slot.  Be sure device is off before inserting or ejecting SD card.  
when card is in place, ridge side up, power on and it plays immediately.

charging  Plug USB cable in teeth side down.

Hi, Mary!
I installed Inbox few days ago to test it and, I can't say I like
  it. I don't prefer threaded view and it is default and not

I suppose I should give it a shot with Outlook if they fix the

  Hi Gordon,
I have heard there will be some changes in the upcoming version
of the stock mail app on iOS. It has been talked about in the
mainstream technical press. Hopefully, it isn't too awful. As
for aqua mail, yes, I have played with settings. I can certainly
delete all of the messages in my inbox quickly enough. But what
I haven't found a way to do which I can do on iOS, is to
actually go through my mail and interact with it efficiently,
 Reading messages and replying as I wish, and or deleting
threads I don't want to read with just one flick of my finger as
I go. Google dictation does seem to be fairly accurate. Perhaps
it is a little bit more accurate for me than Apple. But because
I have such a hard time correcting mistakes, which it certainly
does make, I would rather have Apple, even if it's a little bit
less accurate, because I can fix it easier. I have heard that
Siri is going to get much better in the next version. Whether
that will carry over to dictation remains to be seen of course.
Have you tried the app that Kevin recommended on here a little
while back, inbox by Gmail I think was the name? It only works
for Google accounts. So if you have things other than Google,
then it's not good for you.

There's an article on the Cool Blind Tech website about what's
  new in incoming iOS 10. Amongst other things, it says message view
  in Mail app is not separated by message as it was till now. Now it
  is more like conversation view similar to text and iMessages and
  there is a new option in rotor called "message" which will enable
  you to switch between messages in conversation.
I'm not sure will I like this or not, I like clean separate
  messages and that's why I don't use Gmail app. I don't even like
