Re: Latest Hulu Update

[Liz Ulrich and LD Hope]

For now I am accessing Hulu on my desktop computer. However I like using my 
phone with my blue tooth speaker much better. I really hope that they will 
correct this situation within the month.

help with getting to next level of duolingo?

[Anouk Radix]

Hi, I started using duolingo italian (from English to ialian) today and the 
first level went really well (basics I ) really accessible. Now however I have 
completed that and need to select basics II as that does not seem to be done 
automatically and I just and up in a list of a lot of categories and 3 
unlabeled butttons (test out of 7 skills and things like that) but pressing 
that first button does not seem to get me to the category i want and 
doubletapping basics ii does not do it either. Tapping basics I just shows me 
that I ahve completed that and does not let me ocntinue to the next lesson.
Can someone explain to me how I can proceed furhter?
Thanks in advance,
Greetings, Anouk,

Re: thermostat

I am fairly sure there are several Honeywell models that work with their app.
I have the 9320, but there are several models listed that work with Wifi.

Re: Latest Hulu Update

[Candy Lowe]

I tried to cancel my subscription yesterday. When they ask why I told them. 
They gave me a month free. Let's see what happens during this month. If they 
don't fix it, I will definitely cancel it. I can't use it at all.

 Lisa, I am so disappointed. I had updated the app but had not looked at 
 it. It appears to be totally in accessible.
 instead of having a Watch list you now have my stuff. Anything you tap on 
 you can't read any of the results. I am really thinking about canceling 
 it. I have had it for at least five years and had no problems up until now.
 I hadn't used it for a while because I mainly use it with the new shows 
 Everything was re runs so I just was waiting until the new season. Oh well.

Re: Trouble with Outlook, Braille Screen Input on iPhone 7

[Robert Hill]

 hi, 

I have reported this since version 2.16. 
The last message from their tech support was that they still don't have it 
working. 

At this point I'm back to using Apple's mail app, and I'll probably download 
Outlook again in awhile and see what's happening with it.

Re: Trouble with Outlook, Braille Screen Input on iPhone 7

I am having The same problem and I even updated the app recently. It stays in 
screen output until I start typing and then it switches to portrait. It will 
not stay in braille screen input. I'm sorry this is a problem but we should 
report it to outlook. .

Hi everyone,

I am trying to use Outlook email on an iPhone 7 with Braille Screen Input.
I am running iOS version 10.3.3, and Outlook version 2.39.0.

When using Braille Screen Input, I can enter the recipient’s address, and the 
email subject with no problems.

However, whenever I go to the composition area, the keystrokes I enter are not 
displayed.
What I see is the signature at the bottom, and it is spoken that my cursor is 
at location “such and such, indicating that my cursor has moved, but no 
characters are displayed.

I am wondering if anyone else is having this type of issue.

I like the app, but really would not have to use the onscreen keyboard, or have 
to purchase a bluetooth keyboard to compose messages.

If anyone else is having this kind of issue please let me know, or if you have 
a solution, please pass this along too.

Thanks.

Bob Hill

Re: This darn keyboard

Tried to repair the keyboard. That might help. Otherwise, I have no idea. I

confused with that one also. Anyway, hope that will help you.

Subject: This darn keyboard

Hello everyone,


I am still having trouble with my keyboard buddy case. It is on a 5S I
got not too long ago. I am used to having the little issue where you
just re-start Voiceover. That's annoying, but something iiI can live with.


However, this is the same keyboard that is now on another 5S. It didn't
act like this on the other 5S.

But whenever I try to type, most of the time it wants to put in double
letters.

For instance, if I want to write the word, it will likely put, A, P, pP,
P, L, E.

sometimes I think it's even worse than that.


Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be going on. This thing is
really annoying, and it's frustrating me. It's slowing my typing down.


Any help would be appreciated.


Thank you,


Terri

Hey guys, this is all extremely helpful. So i'll tell you all about why i am 
using lift and uber more.  I was basicly forced into it.  My ADA ride service 
decided to pull a fast 1.  When i moved into my house
4 years ago, they told me that i was in a good location for the ride.
Conveeniently 3 months later, they changed the bus routes, so it made my home 
no longer able to get ADA service.  I basicly threw at them, so how am i 
supposed to get to work?  They decided to honor it.  So now they hit me 
yesterday where if i wanna go any place other than work i have to meet the ride 
at a certainly location.  So now it's a case of now i have to get a ride to get 
ride.  Makes a lot of sense, right?  Anyone else delt with anything similar, 
and what course of action do we have?  Jeez, it's hard enough getting around 
for any of us.

Cheers,

RE: thermostat

[Sieghard Weitzel]

There are at least 4 of them, The one from www.RadioThermostat.com, the Nest 
connected thermostat, one from Honeywell and the Ecobee which you can buy also 
on the Apple Store online.
I have had the Radio Thermostat both at home and at my retail store for years 
and it works well and the app is accessible with a few quirks, but if I had to 
replace it I would most likely choose the one from Ecobee as it is the only one 
I know of that is Homekit compatible which means you can just tell SIRI to 
change your temperature and so on. This of course would be subject to the app 
being accessible which I don't know.
Of course if you are invested in an Amazon Echo or Google Home then you may not 
care since the Nest Thermostat can be voice controlled via those devices.
I suggest you go to the list archieve if you want to read a bit more about 
this, just type "Thermostat" into the search box and then start at the top of 
the page and use the quick nav key "3" as all search results are heading level 
3. You instantly find recent discussions on the Honeywell, Radio Thermostat and 
Nest, somebody even had a Radio Thermostat for sale not long ago.
I don't think I have ever seen any posts here about the Ecobee which is one of 
the more expensive options, but the Nest is also not cheap, if price is an 
issue then the Radio Thermostat is probably your best choice, I think you can 
buy it at Home Depot for $99.

Sieghard

Re: Latest Hulu Update

[Lisa Belville]

The more people who write a negative review, the better.  At last check, 
there were 63% one star reviews for the app from people saying the same type 
of things we were, only from a sighted perspective.  Many have already 
canceled their accounts.  Historically, though, this company doesn't seem to 
have a good track record of listening to customer feedback.  Let's hope they 
see the light or at least the lost dollar signs this time.

review in the App store. I hope that the complaints from blind and sighted

How listen to audio on websites?

[Gianni]

Hi,
I have some websites that I use to watch sports events on tv channels. I watch 
those channels on my mac through Safari. These are flash based sites, so not 
possible to watch them on the iphone. But is there an app that can filter the 
audio from those sites so I can listen to the commentary without the visual 
part? Or maybe someone could build this app?

First of all, when I was using Android, there was this game called,

Does anyone know what kind of game I am talking about?


Also, I think I might be interested in the Blindfold games. But I wish

So I like games such as Talking Stones, I have Dice World. I am willing

I like that game that was called Word Association II, or something like

I'd like some different card games.

Maybe some games where you have to build things, to get what you want?

Or something where you had to line up stuff.

Re: Latest Hulu Update

I don't understand why they do that either.  It really is very annoying.

 Hi, all.
 
 I'm using an iPhone SE with iOS 10.3.3 and the latest version of Hulu 
 issued Wednesday.  This is version 5.6.  Since updating this app I can't 
 get past the first screen.  It tells me to swipe to get started, and then 
 there are four pages which I can move to, but I can't get any additional 
 info about the app or it's programming.  I've been a hulu subscriber for a 
 while, and their recent offerings have been fine as far as accessibility 
 goes.  I'm wondering if there's a workaround, such as turning VO off and 
 tapping on something to get past this introductory screen.  I can't tell 
 if there's something even on the screen, but I'm assuming there is 
 something but VO can only read that small part of it.
 
 TIA for the help/info.
 
 Lisa
