iBooks on the PC

2017-01-31 Thread Danijela Popović
Hi all,
I have a question about iBooks.
I've downloaded few books from the iTunes, but I'm wondering if there
is any way to read those books on my PC, in txt or any other format...

Best regards,

Re: help with keyboard command Vo Keys

2017-01-31 Thread Ann Larson
I assume the command key is next to the space bar. Don't know for sure since I 
don't have this particular keyboard, but the one I have where the control key 
is all the way to the left, the function key is between the control and option, 
and the commend key is to the right of option and left of the space bar.

Thanks! I may have figured out one thing. The far bottom left key seems to be 
the control key. While the option key seems to be the third key from the bottom 
left. I have no idea what they key inbetween the control and the option key is. 
On my Mac the far bottom left key is the function key, then the second key is 
the control key, and the third key from the bottom left is the option. So, I 
thought I was pressing the control plus option, but I was not. Now I have to 
figure out what that mysterious button inbetween control and option is.

Keep in mind that the Voyager products are single ear pieces, and not

How does the portability of the Voyager compared to something like the 
Trekzz? Can you put the Voyager in your pocket easily? This is why I 
typically go for earbuds rather than a headset in that if I'm going out 
without a backpack it's tougher to take one.

IPhone and quick Mac

2017-01-31 Thread Jim Portillo
Hello.  I'm having a new and rather weird issue with my iPhone.
Now, sometimes I use an iPhone Bluetooth keyboard with it, especially if I'm 
going to type long emails or documents. I know that when that happens, quick 
Mac gets turned either on or off.  Of course, I know how to toggle that as well.
Well, now, even if the keyboard is not turned on or connected, every time I go 
to an edit field, I keep getting that message of quick Mac being turned on/off. 
 It's as if there's always a keyboard on and connected, even though that's not 
the case.
I've tried resetting it, simply turning it off then on again, and actually 
using my keyboard and then making sure it's off.
Is there any way I can somehow turn this weird setting off?  Nothing seems to 
work, and I can't dictate or type on the virtual keyboard because of this.
Any help would be appreciated.

Jim
PS. Yes, I'm using my Bluetooth keyboard to type this. :-)

Re: help with keyboard command Vo Keys

Thanks! I may have figured out one thing. The far bottom left key seems to be 
the control key. While the option key seems to be the third key from the bottom 
left. I have no idea what they key inbetween the control and the option key is. 
On my Mac the far bottom left key is the function key, then the second key is 
the control key, and the third key from the bottom left is the option. So, I 
thought I was pressing the control plus option, but I was not. Now I have to

RE: Reviewing subscriptions

2017-01-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I don’t think you can subscribe to Netflix or Spotify via the app store, you 
have to do it on their respective websites and in such cases of course the 
services will not be listed under Subscriptions on the app store since they 
have nothing to do with Apple. If a company offers a subscription as an in-app 
purchase they have to pay whatever percentage to Apple and since I think it is 
something like 30% many services don’t c hoose to do this.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to view my subscriptions. I thought I went the correct way to get the 
information. But now I am not so sure.

I went in to settings, and to ITunes and Apps. Then I entered on my ID.
Once i did this, I saw a subscriptions link. So of course, I entered on it.
However, all I see are my subscriptions I let expire, or no longer wanted. I 
can't seem to see anything else.
Perhaps I am looking in the wrong spot?
Could someone please help me out?

Thank you,

Terri

Re: Battery Usage

2017-01-31 Thread TaraPrakash
Bad signals will consume more battery no matter whether your cell data is on or 
off. You may try to put a Sim card from Verizon for one day and see if the 
battery runs for a longer time. Apart from bad signals phone calls will be the 
worst consumers of battery. Keep the Low Power Mode on all the time maybe that 
will save you a lot of battery.

RE: help with keyboard command Vo Keys

I don't know that keyboard, but control and option are the keys for VoiceOver 
commands.
Did you try control+option+h to go to the home screen?
Or control+option+spacebar to activate an icon, app, etc.

Please Join Me in Requesting That The New Explorer Feature, introduced in the Latest Version of the iOS Twitter App, Be Made VoiceOver Accessible

2017-01-31 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

I am cross-posting this to both the V iPhone and Mac Visionaries mailing
list.

Recently, Twitter introduced a new Explore feature in its iOS mobile app.

In short, the new Explore feature encompasses Twitter Moments, allowing one
to easily track trending topics, search patterns, etc.  Succinctly put,
Twitter Moments has been folded into the new Explore feature.

In the latest version of Twitter Mobile for iOS, when VoiceOver is not
enabled, the Moments tab, located near the bottom of the display, has been
replaced by the Explore tab.  Activating this tab causes trending topics,
popular searches, Moments, etc to be displayed.  It's really quite exciting.

However, when VoiceOver is enabled, the display reverts back to the classic
Moments display leaving out all of this wonderful new information.  

Please join me in requesting that the Explore feature be made VoiceOver
accessible.  

The following is a short request that you are free to use in your feedback
to Twitter:

[REQUEST]
Subject:  Please Make The New Twitter Mobile for iOS Explore Feature
VoiceOver Accessible

Hello,

In the latest version of Twitter Mobile for iOS, the new Explore feature
cannot be accessed When VoiceOver, Apple's software screen reading solutions
for the blind and low vision, is enabled.  

When VoiceOver is enabled, only the Moments tab, located near the bottom of
the display, is available.  The new Explore feature is an extremely powerful
tool that should be accessible to everyone, including those of us who are
visually impaired.  

Thank you for considering my Request,
[END REQUEST]

Post your request in the App Store as a review, send a tweet to both
@support and @Twitter, and send your request to Twitter via email at
supp...@twitter.com.

Thank you for your support,

Mark

RE: Neato app update mentions VoiceOver improvements, but this appears far from usable still

2017-01-31 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Hi,

I’m not entirely sure. I know that sometimes, after it has gotten stuck or I 
had to clear the brushe because an object got caught in it, I had to touch 
along the bottom edge of the screen, which is parallel to the flat edge of the 
bot.

Never, and I mean NEVER, touch to the right side of the screen, as there are 3 
touch sensitive locations there that interact with whatever message is on the 
screen, but the actions of these touch sensitive areas are context dependent  
based upon what is on the screen. I’ve gotten stuck for days as well in the 
language area.

Another option might be to open the the collection receptacle, power off the 
device for a minute or 2, and then power on again. Pressing and holding the 
Home button for 15 seconds will reinitiate the device and reconnect to your 
WiFi. I use this a lot.

Hope this is helpful. Good luck. Others may be able to help more clearly.

Keith

hi all. Thank you Keith for the information on the update.

I have a quick question. If you get an error message and you fix the error how 
do you then restart the bot vac. What I have had to do was tap on the screen 
and then press the home key because pressing the home key by itself did not 
work. I ended up in another language and it took me over a week to get it back 
in English and depending on three different sighted people before we figured it 
out.

Any help on that score would be greatly appreciated.

I think I'll try the update.

Some features are now announced when flicking through the bot options, but I 
noticed that selections of Home, Spot, or Manual do not indicate Selected when 
tapped upon. And, it seems some buttons do not activate.

Please be cautious in updating if you have an older accessible version of their 
app.

At least there’s been some initial efforts made. I’ll be contacting them and I 
hope others will too about the work that remains.

Keith

Clock App Recommendation

2017-01-31 Thread Mauricio Molina
Hi All, 

 

I have been a very happy user of the QOO app. With this app I am able to
schedule a chime every hour, at the top and bottom of the hour, or every
quarter hour. I can also schedule the chime for certain days of the week as
well as specific hours of the day. Perhaps my favorite feature of the app is
that rather than having a chime, it can be made to speak the time at the
intervals specified. 

 

Okay, so here is the problem: I have recommended this app to another
individual and it was no longer available. Both I and the individual to whom
this app was recommended are using iPhones 6s with the most recent version
of the iOS. What I would like to ask is if anyone can search for the QOO app
to see if they have success, and if not, what similar apps are others on
this list using. The feature to speak rather than chime is especially
appealing. 

 

Thanks, 

 

Mauricio

Re: Neato app update mentions VoiceOver improvements, but this appears far from usable still

2017-01-31 Thread bpabbott9
hi all. Thank you Keith for the information on the update.

I have a quick question. If you get an error message and you fix the error how 
do you then restart the bot vac. What I have had to do was tap on the screen 
and then press the home key because pressing the home key by itself did not 
work. I ended up in another language and it took me over a week to get it back 
in English and depending on three different sighted people before we figured it 
out.

Any help on that score would be greatly appreciated.

I think I'll try the update.

I've had the exact opposite experience.
I'd say they have the best customer service around.
I hope someone on the list can help you.

I have done that already. An I absolutely refused to call Apple
accessibility. They have never once been able to help me solve a
problem; in fact, Apple has some of the worst customer support I've

I have called them four or five times with issues. Each time I was
forced to spend over two hours on the phone, and none of the times
resulted in the problem being solved. I have more luck emailing this
list.

Re: Battery Usage

2017-01-31 Thread Richard Turner

It sounds like it is time to call Apple Accessibility or go into an Apple Store 
and see if they can figure out what is happening.
You could also search the web for tips to save battery life and go through all 
the settings to see if something is running in the background that you don't 
want.

Re: Ulysses was Re: Text editing/word processing

2017-01-31 Thread Richard Turner

To say an app is straight forward is hard, since it depends on how detailed you 
want to be. The manual is very good and learning the mark down symbols, for me, 
was pretty easy.
If you want a bulleted list, you simply put a hyphen before each item.
To get the document on dropbox, you would then select the export button at the 
top of the screen.
Double tap on export to external location. Double tap on the format, say rtf, 
then double tap on dropbox. Then you will be able to pick the folder on dropbox 
you want.
Then hit the upload or done button, I can't quite remember what it is called, 
but it will be pretty clear at that point.
You can easily have different heading levels, like heading level 1, 2, 3, etc.
You simply put a number sign at the beginning of the line. If you want heading 
level 2, use two number signs, etc.
It is worth taking the time to really learn the features. It deals with 
selecting text much the same as Voice Dream Reader. Plus, if you have purchased 
voices for Voice Dream Reader, they work in Writer.
Pages gets a low rating because it is such a pain to use.
At least, in my opinion.
I hope that helps.

Re: Ulysses was Re: Text editing/word processing

2017-01-31 Thread Michael Feir
Scrivener didn't seem to let me enter apostrophes. It kept giving a short
beep whenever I tried. Also, I found it tricky to import all the files I
wanted to from Dropbox. I love the basic philosophy behind Scrivener but I
just didn't have the experience I thought I would. I've had a much smoother
experience with Ulysses. I'm learning more of the markdown language as I
need to. So far, it has the formatting commands I require. Basic formatting
like centering and such is quite simple. I've written lettres and exported
them as HTML, text and other formats. I haven't done footnotes but there is
a command to add them when needed. You may want to check out the FAQ at:
ulyssesapp.com/faq
It should be possible to get the user guide as well. Lots of helpful info
on their site for Mac and iOS. I did read that they can't offer student
discounts or anything like that so you'd be paying full price as I
understand it. however, the seem to be simple text commands for adding lots
of things including images.

Getting notifications from Facebook about Facebook live mentions?

2017-01-31 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi everyone, first of all I'd like to say thank you for all the help that you 
have given me with my questions, secondly, I wonder if there is a way to get 
notifications when somebody is doing a Facebook live mentioned? For example, 
let's just say I liked Joel Rosenberg's page, and I know he is going to do a 
live mention or I don't know if he's going to either way, is there a way to get 
notified when they're doing a live mention like you can with Periscope? Thanks.

Currently, I am trying to decide which word processor I want to invest the time

 thing, DirecTV, there are hundreds of rose. And I wanted to go down to the

 Eventually, I will go through and make favorites and my list will be

 channel 200? Or I should say Road 200

 in the status bar, and it works every time like a charm. However, for

Re: Text editing/word processing

2017-01-31 Thread Michael Feir
I'd say Wordbook compares quite nicely to Wordweb. For some reason, Wordweb
got harder to use for me on iOS. It's a great app and I'd be happy to learn
it was back to being fully useable.  It was great on Windows too. Wordbook
gives comparable definitions.

There have been times when Ulysses has gone on sale of been given away.
That happened quite a bit in the NANO Wrimo month which they helped
sponsor.  It certainly is a pricy app but I don't regrette my purchase. It
has met all my needs so splendidly that I may never write anything
substantial on my laptop again.

I'm very surprised that Pages isn't free on both Mac and iOS. I wonder why
that is. I do remember that it used to cost around $20 on iOS  years ago.

Agile Tortoise made an app called Drafts which might also be worth your
checking out. I don't know if it's available on Mac but I know it can tie
into Dropbox. Hope you find a writing solution which works well for you.
It's damned nice to leave my laptop behind and still be able to get
everything done on my iPHONE and a Bluetooth keyboard.

Neato app update mentions VoiceOver improvements, but this appears far from usable still

2017-01-31 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Hi,

New Neato app update today mentions VoiceOver improvements, but to my review it 
appears to still be a long way from usable.

Some features are now announced when flicking through the bot options, but I 
noticed that selections of Home, Spot, or Manual do not indicate Selected when 
tapped upon. And, it seems some buttons do not activate.

Please be cautious in updating if you have an older accessible version of their 
app.

At least there's been some initial efforts made. I'll be contacting them and I 
hope others will too about the work that remains.

Keith

Re: Voiceover gestures for going to the bottom of the list in a big long scroll area

2017-01-31 Thread Traci Duncan
Hello, my experience is flicking left from the first bottom tab, brings me to 
that 999 channel.  Actually, now there’s some 1995 service check channel.

This flick left from the bottom row of tabs is working whether I have all 
channels showing or if I narrow the list to my favorites.

I agree though, I wish there was something as seamless and consistent as the 
tap in the status bar.  I use that gesture often.  Frankly, the four-finger 
single tap towards the bottom is always annoying.  Lol!

Good luck to you.  I hope you can get it to work.

Re: Text editing/word processing

2017-01-31 Thread Traci Duncan
Thank you everyone for the suggestions.  I have a few follow up questions.

Word Book sounds cool.  How would you compare it to WordWeb?  That’s the app 
I’ve been using for years.

Ulysses is $19.99 in IOS App store and $44.99 in Mac App Store.  Am I 
understanding correctly, if you wanted both it would be the combined price?  
The Mac $44.99 doesn’t include the iOS app?

I also looked up Pages.  It will be free for my iPhone, but not my Mac.  I am 
very surprised to see a 2-1/2 star rating in the Mac store.  Wonder what people 
don’t like about it.  Of course the appeal to purchasing native Apple apps, is 
they should stick around and remain accessible.

Is Voice Dream Writer pretty straight forward?  Let’s say I want to quickly 
write a list of donation items.  I then want that to sink up with Dropbox, so I 
can add or modify the list later on my Mac.  Also, did I read I can export in 
RTF?  Are there sharing options, like share to social media?

On my Mac, I use I-Text-Express.  Those documents are all in RTF.

Thank you,
Traci

Re: Question about the Nook ap

2017-01-31 Thread Mike Arrigo
I think it's a bug in the app, I have the same issue, double tapping on 
the button that goes to the contents or library does not work. At this 
point, you can try turning voice over off and tapping in that area but 
that's the only way I can think of to work around this at the moment, 
other than uninstalling and reinstalling the app which is annoying to 
say the least.

Original message:

Is anyone using the Nook ap who hopefully can answer a question? I just 
finished a book and want to get back to my list of books and delete 
that particular book. The ap seems to be stuck in Book Page even though 
it says I’m at the end of the book and I can’t seem to get it to go 
anywhere else. I’ve tried all the gestures I can think of. Suggestions?

Hello, no this is normal. When you are honor network or 3G depending on if you 
have LT on or not. The T-Mobile network thing is the cellular network you're 
using. And the signal strength bars, or how good the coverage is in your area 
for cellular calls. I hope this explains everything you asked.

Celular Data Question

All,

To avoid maximizing my data, I've started having cellular data in
settings turned off most of the time. What's weird is that I'm still
seeing "t-mobile network" and the number of signal bars in the status
bar on my phone. Is this normal or am I still using data somehow?

Re: bluetooth earbud recommendations?

2017-01-31 Thread kelby carlson
How does the portability of the Voyager compared to something like the
Trekzz? Can you put the Voyager in your pocket easily? This is why I
typically go for earbuds rather than a headset in that if I'm going
out without a backpack it's tougher to take one.

I have been using a voyager legend since 2013, and absolutely loved it.  
Recently my headset took a one way trip to the great electronics graveyard in 
the sky.

I found that Plantronics released a newer version of the legend, the voyager

It has better audio quality, and the microphones are better in the 5200 series

Hello Christopher, and list,

No, that's the odd thing, I currently do have some subscriptions. Such as 
Netflix, and Spotify.
Now, they are on my Ipad, and not my Iphone. But would this make a difference?
I wouldn't think so. But maybe I am incorrect?

Thank you,

Well, some apps are more accessible on Apple TV than their equivalents on iOS. 
The reverse is also true so your mileage may vary.

RE: Text editing/word processing

Hi Michael,

WordBook sounds interesting, but when I searched for it I found two apps from 
different developers with the same name. What is the developer for the one you 
are recommending? 

Thanks,

Subject: Re: Text editing/word processing

 

Hello. I recommend Ulysses. It's fully accessible now. Since Apple figured out 
how to improve text selection, I haven't found any good reason to use Voice 
Dream Writer. It's easy to select, cut and paste chunks of text in Pages or 
other mainstream writing apps. Proof-reading is quite possible using the 
built-in spellchecker in iOS. Ulysses is expensive but I use it all the time. 
It's great for keeping stuff organised and writing long documents like the iOS 
guide I'm working on for blind people. I can have a sepearte sheet for each 
major section and rearrange them at will. I can also cut and paste minor 
sections withinn a sheet. Ulysses uses markdown language for formatting so you 
can always know what's going on since the Markdown characters are all text 
symbols.

There's always Pages which is free from Apple and Microsoft Word which is free 
from Microsoft. Both are quite useable. For a good accessible 
dictionary/thesaurus app, I suggest Wordbook. It does the job rather nicely. 
There's also another great one called Terminology. Both apps will work even 
when offline so you'll never be without some assistance finding the right word. 
Haven't found any satisfactory offline encyclopedias but the Wikipedia Mobile 
app is great provided you're online. I've heard they have some agreement with 
carriers so that it doesn't even cost you cellular data to look up things on 
there. And of course, the Google app is a good addition to anybody's home 
screens. Its voice search can often out-do Siri.

 

You might also want to look at another app called Scrivener. It was designed 
with authors in mind and is a close competitor. To Ulysses I prefer Ulysses 
overall but it comes down to personal taste and overall approach. Hope that 
helps you out a bit.

Hi Tracy,

VoiceDream Writer costs $9.99, but it is so worth it. You can spellcheck and 
proofread your documents. I'm not sure if it syncs up with DropBox, but it does 
sync with iCloud so whenever you edit a document, it is automatically updated. 
Also when you create the document, and name iot, you don't have to save. It is 
really an awesome app

RE: bug in the accessibility of apple tv 4

2017-01-31 Thread Larry Lumpkin
The keyboards that pair automaticly work fine.  It’s just the ones that request 
a pairing code.

Neither of those bugs happen to me.  With pairing of a bt keyboard, it doesn’t 
send me a pairing request, it just pairs, and when done it says “keyboard 
connected”. As for the other bug, I just turn my rotter to words or characters, 
and that seems to take care of reading what is in focus.

1.  If you are attempting to pair a blue tooth keyboard that is sent a pairing 
code request by the system, voice over won’t read the pairing code though it is 
displayed on the screen.

 

2.  If you are attempting to read all the items in the about dialog under 
settings, voice over won’t focus on many of them, only one item is readable 
most of the time.

 

I confirmed this with an apple support person and he was able to duplicate 
these with the latest TVOS and my apple wireless keyboard model.  He called 
this morning and said that the engineers had reported others confirming this 
bug.  If any of you are having this difficulty, be sure to report it to apple 
accessibility.

What can the AppleyTV do for me that the iPhone can't?

2017-01-31 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Hi,

I have an AppleTV 4th gen and like it very much. I mostly use it for watching 
audio described movies with sighted family members. Mostly, when it's just me, 
I use the iPhone.

Am I missing out on some accessibility and or  content that the Apple TV offers 
but that the iPhone doesn't? I'm just wondering if I could get more mileage out 
of the Apple TV.

Thanks, Keith

Reviewing subscriptions

2017-01-31 Thread Terri Stimmel
Hello everyone,

I wanted to view my subscriptions. I thought I went the correct way to get the 
information. But now I am not so sure.

I went in to settings, and to ITunes and Apps. Then I entered on my ID.
Once i did this, I saw a subscriptions link. So of course, I entered on it.
However, all I see are my subscriptions I let expire, or no longer wanted. I 
can't seem to see anything else.
Perhaps I am looking in the wrong spot?
Could someone please help me out?

Thank you,

Terri

Re: Text editing/word processing

2017-01-31 Thread Michael Feir
Hello. I recommend Ulysses. It's fully accessible now. Since Apple figured
out how to improve text selection, I haven't found any good reason to use
Voice Dream Writer. It's easy to select, cut and paste chunks of text in
Pages or other mainstream writing apps. Proof-reading is quite possible
using the built-in spellchecker in iOS. Ulysses is expensive but I use it
all the time. It's great for keeping stuff organised and writing long
documents like the iOS guide I'm working on for blind people. I can have a
sepearte sheet for each major section and rearrange them at will. I can
also cut and paste minor sections withinn a sheet. Ulysses uses markdown
language for formatting so you can always know what's going on since the
Markdown characters are all text symbols.
There's always Pages which is free from Apple and Microsoft Word which is
free from Microsoft. Both are quite useable. For a good accessible
dictionary/thesaurus app, I suggest Wordbook. It does the job rather
nicely. There's also another great one called Terminology. Both apps will
work even when offline so you'll never be without some assistance finding
the right word. Haven't found any satisfactory offline encyclopedias but
the Wikipedia Mobile app is great provided you're online. I've heard they
have some agreement with carriers so that it doesn't even cost you cellular
data to look up things on there. And of course, the Google app is a good
addition to anybody's home screens. Its voice search can often out-do Siri.

You might also want to look at another app called Scrivener. It was
designed with authors in mind and is a close competitor. To Ulysses I
prefer Ulysses overall but it comes down to personal taste and overall
approach. Hope that helps you out a bit.

VoiceDream Writer costs $9.99, but it is so worth it. You can spellcheck and 
proofread your documents. I'm not sure if it syncs up with DropBox, but it does

Also when you create the document, and name iot, you don't have to save. It is

Hi all, OK, so a few of my abs are becoming obsolete. I've learned that 
nebulous is ending, and apparently draft pad ended quite a while ago.

I am looking for a new text editor/word processor. Any recommendations? All the

RE: Copy and paste from windows to iPhone, need an app:

2017-01-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I am sure you could copy an entire Word document and then paste it into the 
Word app on the iPhone, but whether it would preserve the formatting is another 
question. Why not just use OneDrive, save your document to OneDrive on the PC 
and it is instantly available to the Word app on your iPhone.

SieghardI doubt

Hi Sieghard,

Zero tap stopped working for me a while back after one of my iOS upgrades so I 
started using snippets since I use this functionality all the time. I never 
found zero tap as useful for copying text from the iPhone to the computer and 
snippets handles this well too.

On the PC you just put a shortcut on the desktop to the Zerotap website, you

Hey guys,

I had a question on the home button.  On my iphone 6, when i would press the 
home button, it would allow me to swipe through my most recent notifications 
that came in, and if i wanted to unlock it, i would hold my fignerprint.  The 
iphone 7 doesn't seem to be doing that, it seems that when i press the home 
button it just opens up.  I have a finger print setup.  Am i missing something?

RE: talking multimeter

Good morning Rick,

Say I picked up that multimeter and it did have a milliamp setting. Do you 
think I could get a test lead with a male USB end, along with an end to plug 
into the multimeter?

I might give General Tool a call this morning.

They sell all kinds of  milliamp testers for USB devices on Amazon, but I 
didn't find any acdcessible or talking ones.
See what I'm saying?

All,

I've been experiening a lot faster drop in battery level over the last
couple of days. When I check to see the pattern of usage in the last
24 hours, it says that almost 20% of my battery is being used by my
mail app even though I have fetch and notifications for it turned off;
it also says that the app has only been on in the background for one
minute. Any idea what's going on?
