RE: iPhone 7 screen intermittently seems to go unresponsive

[M. Taylor]

Hello Keith,

I do not think this has anything to do with your phone as I have experienced 
the same phenomenon, today in fact, on my beloved 8 Plus.

I'm not certain if I would describe it as the screen being unresponsive, so 
much as I would say that VoiceOver simply drops out.  For example, when this 
happens, one can still scroll from screen-to-screen but without any audio 
feedback.  So, for a totally blind person, this would seem as though the screen 
/ device was unresponsive.

I have resolved the problem by (1) simply pressing the Home button; (2) 
unplugging and then reinserting my Earpods into the Lightening port, when this 
occurs while they are in use; or (3) simply opening another app.  

Mark

Subject: iPhone 7 screen intermittently seems to go unresponsive

Hi,

My iPhone 7 is nearing the end of its Apple Care coverage, so I’m asking 
opinions on this matter.

For several weeks now, my screen becomes unresponsive at times, not responding 
to gestures such as double taps, etc. I can generally get it working again by 
turning off and then back on again Voiceover.

Is this something I should get checked out by Apple, or just one of the ways 
iPhones sometimes act?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Keith

RE: battery drain in ios 12

[Sieghard Weitzel]

It is always a good idea as the absolute minimum to make sure you quit all apps 
in the app switcher and reboot your phone prior to an update. If it is a major 
update, e.g. from iOS 11 to iOS 12 as in this case I usually do a reset network 
settings before the update just to make sure if there are any processes running 
that they are terminated.

Best regards,

Also, if you just updated battery will most likely be used more during the 
first couple of days after the update since the phone is reindexing a lot of 
stuff.
As Sean said, give it a few days, then do a Reset Network Settings and also, 
afterwards, plug in your phone, then turn it off completely over night leaving 
it plugged in. Turn it on the next morning and see how it behaves.
Just out of curiocity, did you do anything in preparation for the upgrade or 
did you just tell it to install when it prompted you?
Lastly, remember that after you do a Reset Network Settings you have to 
reconnect to your WiFi and you will need to enter the WiFi Password, also, if 
you renamed your phone or if it is called anything other than simply “iPhone”, 
then you have to go to Settings > General > About and rename it in there.

Have you turned off screen time as well? With this on, your phone will log how 
long you use it each day, thus draining your battery. Turning this feature off 
should reduce the strain on your battery. HTH.

Re: FIOS TV

[Arlene]

For the person that was asking about verizon, not knowing if you're in an 
area that is served by cox, comcast  and or dish, here's some information to 
consider, of which we've had both experience with cox and dish. Cox and 
comcasts's accessibility is very good, because both companies use a x2 set 
top box. The voice is pleasant. You have a 1 button direct access therefore 
you can turn the voice on and off as needed. Since you don't have to relie 
on a onscreen keyboard there's no problem or issue in turning to any channel 
you want, just punch it up on the remote. With cox you can get all the 
information you need this information about what I'm going to tell you about 
the information that you could hear is based on a cox subscription, however 
comcast should be close to the same. That is, when you press the information 
when you're watching a show or you tune to a channel, it will tell you 
information such as the name of the show, and how much time is left on the 
show. It seems that it depends on the show, but for some shows it will give 
you the show name and a brief description of the show. Dish is a very 
simular experience, though the speech is kind of crummy, reminding us of 
xp's narrator, but even worse. The male voice will give you that same 
information such as the name of the show and a brief description of the 
episode, and depending on the   show the date of the episode. We ended up 
quitting dish for 2 reasons, they could never get the tuner in the hopper to 
work correctly. The second reason is that with the xm radio channels there 
were random dropouts in the audio, lasting anywhere from 1 second to about 3 
minutes, the average being about 5 to 10 seconds. After working on this with 
them after 3 years, these issues  were never resolved. This is what I 
believe, they could have solved the problems but there was no interest on 
their part to do so. If our cable wwasn't as good of an experience as it is 
for us currently, we would have the cord completely cut because beleive me, 
there's no shortage of alternative entertaiment options. Note, this is just 
a thought for those of you, that are having disappointing accessiibility 
issues, if you're provider offers a program card for tvo, it might be 
something worth looking into. We don't know if all the tvo boxes are all 
accessible but we do know of a few people that  have certain models that are 
good when it comes to accessibility. Now for the apps, the dish app, dish 
anywhere app is  an okay app. The sling app, we didn't like it. The sling 
app you could get free if you have the hopper from dish, or you could buy 
the sling tv stick and use the app. Using with the hopper we found it kind 
of clunky and didn't always give the information you wanted out of it. 
There's 2 cox apps, the cox connect app has  access simular to the cox web 
page about billing and other details, and the contore app is where you could 
watch the tv channels, schedule recordings and other things, both these apps 
are accessible.

I've been a Fios customer since September, 2010. The accessibility 
features in the current set-top boxes is relatively new--about two years 
now, I think. On the whole, it's very accessible, just not 100% so.



Depending on which box you get, and there are at least two, possibly three 
different ones, the position in the menu tree for turning accessibility on 
differs, but the basic concept is the same. You have to press the remote's 
MENU button, navigate to Settings, then to Accessibility,and the rest 
should be intuitive when you get to that branch of the menu tree. In fact, 
some boxes will tell you when you get to the accessibility option without 
having to explicitly turn it on. I think this is one of the stupidest 
things ever, since there is no documented way of getting to that option to 
begin with, so what are you supposed to do, hunt around for it? So you'll 
definitely need assistance to turn it on. Verizon can provide you that 
assistance over the phone by looking up which box you have, and telling 
you which buttons to pres. If you follow their directions to the letter, 
it will work.



Now, what you get when you turn accessibility on isn't perfect. For 
instance, the search option doesn't talk at all, but browsing the 
electronic program guide, or EPG, does. None of the help screens speak. 
Also, pressing the big round INFO button doesn't give details of what 
you're watching, only the summary screen is spoken. That is, it speaks the 
name of the show, season number, episode number and name, but no details, 
such as plot, stars, etc. On the music channels, you only get to hear the 
channel name, not the name of the playing track. On most music channels, 
there is an on-screen scroll of information about either the currently 
playing artist, or the channel's genre, which

Re: iPhone 7 screen intermittently seems to go unresponsive

[Mary Otten]

I don’t think it’s your phone, or your screen protector. I have noticed this 
same thing since upgraded to iOS 12, however it is very unpredictable. I can’t 
reproduce reliably. It happens most often in the mail app. And the solution for 
me has been to take the app out of the app switcher and then restart it. I know 
this started with iOS 12. But since it’s so hard to reliably reproduce, I’m not 
sure what to tell Apple. I can go for days and not have a problem. Then I might 
have it twice within the space of a single day.

RE: Restoring my BARD books to my 8 Plus

[Alan Lemly]

I'll add to Richard's comment to confirm that when you move to another device 
even if you have a full, encrypted backup to restore to that device, your BARD 
Mobile content is not restored to it. Anyone who has many books downloaded to 
BARD Mobile especially if they've begun reading them should make note of the 
book title and reading location before getting a new device.

With the latest version, when you go to get books there is an option to get the

Hi Keith,

Do you have a screen protector on? If it is one of those that is connected to a

protector and the screen of the phone.

Good luck!

Are you running iOS12? This is exactly what's been happening to my
iPhone 7 ever since I updated to iOS12. What I do is either press the
home button then open another app or go into the app switcher, remove
the troublesome app then relaunch. Both methods will get things going
again. It's not a solution, but it's an ok work-around until Apple
issues a fix.

Re: iPhone 7 screen intermittently seems to go unresponsive

[Kimber Gardner]

Are you running iOS12? This is exactly what's been happening to my
iPhone 7 ever since I updated to iOS12. What I do is either press the
home button then open another app or go into the app switcher, remove
the troublesome app then relaunch. Both methods will get things going
again. It's not a solution, but it's an ok work-around until Apple
issues a fix.

RE: battery drain in ios 12

Hi, Sieghard:
I did not do anything to my phone prior to upgrading to Ios 12.  Screen time 
was never turned on, so as you suggest, I’ll try resetting network settings.

Also, if you just updated battery will most likely be used more during the 
first couple of days after the update since the phone is reindexing a lot of 
stuff.
As Sean said, give it a few days, then do a Reset Network Settings and also, 
afterwards, plug in your phone, then turn it off completely over night leaving 
it plugged in. Turn it on the next morning and see how it behaves.
Just out of curiocity, did you do anything in preparation for the upgrade or 
did you just tell it to install when it prompted you?
Lastly, remember that after you do a Reset Network Settings you have to 
reconnect to your WiFi and you will need to enter the WiFi Password, also, if 
you renamed your phone or if it is called anything other than simply “iPhone”, 
then you have to go to Settings > General > About and rename it in there.

Have you turned off screen time as well? With this on, your phone will log how 
long you use it each day, thus draining your battery. Turning this feature off 
should reduce the strain on your battery. HTH.

iPhone 7 screen intermittently seems to go unresponsive

['Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.' via VIPhone]

Hi,

My iPhone 7 is nearing the end of its Apple Care coverage, so I'm asking 
opinions on this matter.

For several weeks now, my screen becomes unresponsive at times, not responding 
to gestures such as double taps, etc. I can generally get it working again by 
turning off and then back on again Voiceover.

Is this something I should get checked out by Apple, or just one of the ways 
iPhones sometimes act?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi 


Go into Settings, then General.

Swipe through this page and towards the bottom is a Reset option.  Double-tap 
here and there will be an option to reset your network settings.

Hop0e this has helped you.

Re: USEFUL SHORTCUTS

[Wayne Merritt]

I'm still working out the use of shortcuts as well. One case where I
did create a shortcut was to say Health to Siri, and get the today
summary of my health app. Now that I have an Apple Watch, I can view
the summary of the day, calories burned, ring completion, and even
heart rate information. Dark Sky added support for Shortcuts and I
created a couple of shortcuts to check the rain chance and the weather
forecast with Dark Sky. As more apps support Shortcuts we will start
to see the possibilities expand.

RE: Restoring my BARD books to my 8 Plus

[Richard Turner]

As far as I know you would have to download them again.
With the latest version, when you go to get books there is an option to get the 
list of previously downloaded books, so you could work from that.

HTH,

Re: Deleting podcasts from podcast app

[Chantal Ferreira]

Hi Judy

To delete a listened to podcast there are a few ways.

1. If you are in the mini player section, swipe right until you find
the "More  button". Double tap on it and swipe right until you find
the "Remove" button. Double tap on this and follow the instructions.

2. If you are in the episode section, swipe up on the "Play" button.
This will give you a "More button". Swipe right until you here
"Remove".

3. If you are in the podcast feed with the list of episodes, you go to
the one you want to delete, double tap and hold with one finger until
you hear the active tone and then swipe right to hear "Remove
podcast".

4. Finally, you can adjust in settings after what period of time the
played podcast will automatically be deleted from your device.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Chantal

Re: unsubscribing podcasts

[Chantal Ferreira]

Hi Max

In order to be able to unsubscribe from a podcast feed in the native
podcast app you do the following.

1. You first need to open the particular podcast feed.

2. Swipe write until you here "play".

3. Swipe up on play and you should here "More".

 4. Double tap on "More" and swipe right until you here "Unsubscribe".

5. Double tap on "Unsubscribe".

6. You might then still have to delete it from your podcast feed
because it will still be there but it won't download new podcasts. To
check if it's still in your feed you have to go to the last subscribed
feed you have and it will then be there.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Chantal

Re: FIOS TV

[Steve Matzura]

I've been a Fios customer since September, 2010. The accessibility 
features in the current set-top boxes is relatively new--about two years 
now, I think. On the whole, it's very accessible, just not 100% so.



Depending on which box you get, and there are at least two, possibly 
three different ones, the position in the menu tree for turning 
accessibility on differs, but the basic concept is the same. You have to 
press the remote's MENU button, navigate to Settings, then to 
Accessibility,and the rest should be intuitive when you get to that 
branch of the menu tree. In fact, some boxes will tell you when you get 
to the accessibility option without having to explicitly turn it on. I 
think this is one of the stupidest things ever, since there is no 
documented way of getting to that option to begin with, so what are you 
supposed to do, hunt around for it? So you'll definitely need assistance 
to turn it on. Verizon can provide you that assistance over the phone by 
looking up which box you have, and telling you which buttons to pres. If 
you follow their directions to the letter, it will work.



Now, what you get when you turn accessibility on isn't perfect. For 
instance, the search option doesn't talk at all, but browsing the 
electronic program guide, or EPG, does. None of the help screens speak. 
Also, pressing the big round INFO button doesn't give details of what 
you're watching, only the summary screen is spoken. That is, it speaks 
the name of the show, season number, episode number and name, but no 
details, such as plot, stars, etc. On the music channels, you only get 
to hear the channel name, not the name of the playing track. On most 
music channels, there is an on-screen scroll of information about either 
the currently playing artist, or the channel's genre, which also is not 
voiced.



ON the whole, it's quite useful and usable, just not to the detailed 
level some might want.


As for the phone or computer application, I also give that less than 
high marks. Everything's there--descriptions, ability to browse and use 
the EPG, direct channel tuning, all that--but the layout is anything but 
optimal, and the on-screen keyboard for channel selection by number has 
a horrid timeout problem, which means no matter how fast you are with a 
phone and your phone's screen reader, you'll never be fast enough to 
type more than two digits of a channel number before the software thinks 
you're done and tunes your set-top box to that two-digit channel number. 
Example: CoziTV is Fios channel 460. If I type 4, then 6, while I'm 
finding the 0 and pressing it, the timeout has already stopped taking 
input from the on-screen keyboard, so my box gets set to channel 46. 
Another problem is that the on-screen keyboard is sometimes overlaid 
with part of the rest of the controls and options, so it's sometimes not 
possible to display the whole keypad, making even attempting to select a 
channel by number most difficult, if not altogether impossible. Of 
course, users that don't require a screen reader can simply push the 
rest of the stuff out of the way, revealing the full keyboard. I'm not 
sure whether a Bluetooth keyboard would or could solve this problem, and 
to be fair, there may have been updates to the application since last I 
tried it, which was probably about four years ago, that may have solved 
this and other accessibility problems.


Hope this helps.

Re: battery drain in ios 12

Have you turned off screen time as well? With this on, your phone will log how 
long you use it each day, thus draining your battery. Turning this feature off 
should reduce the strain on your battery. HTH.
