Re: Question about removing AirPods from one's Apple ID

[Robin Frost]

Hi Anna,
Thanks as always for being so kind as to respond. Yes in my experience I was 
told to tell all devices to which they were connected to forget them then press 
the button on the back of the case for approximately 8 seconds to get them back 
into pairing mode and then remember to rename them once paired with the new 
device under their more info button in bluetooth devices.
Take good care.
Robin

Hi robin,

I think you just have to tell one of your devices to forget them, and they are 
removed from your account.

Best,
Anna

Re: Question about removing AirPods from one's Apple ID

[Robin Frost]

Hi,
Oh dear I must respectfully disagree with the assessment. While yes the 
explanation is clear the execution thereof when VoiceOver is in play is not so 
as you can’t swipe left on them as confirmed by the Apple Accessibility team. 
But as others have said the alternative is to go into bluetooth under settings 
tell a device or all devices to which they’re connected to forget them. But 
then you have to press the button on the back of the case for approximately 8 
seconds to get the airpods into setup mode again and pair them to the new 
device. However, once that’s done there’s one more step. You must locate the 
airpods under bluetooth devices on the newly paired device double tap on more 
info and rename them other wise they’ll retain the name they originally bore 
when paired with their first device.
I hope that helps.
Robin (who now knows more about this topic than I ever thought I would in the 
name of being generous and giving mine to a friend)

https://support.apple.com/kb/ph19302?locale=en_US . seems to make the process 
clear in the Apple supported fashion. Summary: put the airpods in their case:

  1.. Sign in to Find My iPhone on this device with your Apple ID (the one you 
use with iCloud).

  2.. In the Devices list, swipe left on the device, then tap Remove.

If your Apple Watch or AirPods come online again, they reappear in Find My 
iPhone. If the device reappears, unpair it in Bluetooth Settings on all of your 
devices.

I suspect that pairing the airpods with some other account would be helpful ... 
so if you are doing the transfer to someone else, while your phone is off (or 
you've bluetooth unpaired it with your phone) having them press the "re-pair" 
button the case and take over the airpods that might obviate the need for 
unpairing with all devices. Those of us who have paired to a bevy of our apple 
family products ... can't easily test the "deactivate from findmyiphone") 
because any powerup finds *some* bluetooth device of ours ;>

Hi, Bonnie,

 

I was having trouble with my battery last year and it would normally go down to 
20% before the day was over each day.  I had the battery replaced last December 
but it didn’t work much better.  Since I wanted to have a reliable phone when I

Well there are a few things to try for sure. 

The first thing I’d do is see whether it really turned itself off or just 
stopped talking. 

First, make sure it’s plugged in even if you think the battery is fine. 
Plugging it in will actually start it if it’s powered off in most cases. While 
you’re at it, and if it is plugged in, unplug it and replug it in. Note whether 
the little power noise happens.

the battery in this IPhone 6 in the spring, it went from about 40 percent at 
lunch to about 2 percent at 4 o'clock, having been used maybe half an hour's 
worth in the interveening time. I got the battery replaced at Batteries Plus 
for about 50 dollars. Being that your phone will update probably twice more, it 
would be worth replacing the battery since you like your phone.  If it does 
this sudden quitting again, that definitely is not a good sign. If I were you, 
I would take that other battery and cable along if I were going to be away from 
home for very long, in case it quits somewhere very inconvenient for it to do 
so.

Well there are a few things to try for sure. 

The first thing I’d do is see whether it really turned itself off or just 
stopped talking. 

First, make sure it’s plugged in even if you think the battery is fine. 
Plugging it in will actually start it if it’s powered off in most cases. While 
you’re at it, and if it is plugged in, unplug it and replug it in. Note whether 
the little power noise happens.

This doesn’t guarantee anything I found with my last major problem, but try 
muting and unmuting it. If the phone has power, and if you can make it mute and 
unmute, you’ll get that little haptic on muting, this is another good indicator 
that you have power to it.

If you don’t have power to it, leave it plugged in for about 20 minutes and 
try all this again. 

So we’ve got power and it mutes and unmutes, but still not talking. Plug in 
some headphones. Or if you have it paired to a Bluetooth speaker or headset, 
activate that. If that gets sound, but the speaker does not, we can go from 
there. 

If you know you have power, you can try turninging voiceover on and off if 
you’ve set that up on triple click home.

If you still can’t get its attention, we’ll probably have to talk in prep

RE: Siri doesn't talk; help

[Carolyn Arnold]

Yes, now, when she says this is what I found on the net, I read it with Voice 
Over. 

When I had my first iPhone and never got proficient with it, and she said it, I 
said, well scr**w you, and she said, I wouldn't talk to you like that. 

My daughter-in-law asked me that even though it was a machine, did I apologize, 
and I said I did. 

I have a friend who said one of her friends got really provoked with Siri, and 
talked to her worse than I did, and for several weeks, Siri wouldn't respond - 
I guess you could say like a lovers' quarrel.

Siri doesn't always talk.  Sometimes, what is asked, Siri says something like, 
this is what I found, check it out.
That is usually a web site or three.
If the Siri feedback is set to always, and you ask a question that Siri finds 
on the web, that is what you get and you have to use VoiceOver or Speak Screen, 
to read the answer.

Thank you, Arnold. I've noticed that the battery charge depletes much more

Hi Bonnie, 

 

Unfortunately, the symptoms you describe may mean that your battery is 
beginning to fail. I have known them to be 30 or 40 percent charged, the phone 
just quits, and when plugged in, say some low digit percent. When I replaced 
the battery in this IPhone 6 in the spring, it went from about 40 percent at 
lunch to about 2 percent at 4 o'clock, having been used maybe half an hour's 
worth in the interveening time. I got the battery replaced at Batteries Plus 
for about 50 dollars. Being that your phone will update probably twice more, it 
would be worth replacing the battery since you like your phone.  If it does 
this sudden quitting again, that definitely is not a good sign. If I were you, 
I would take that other battery and cable along if I were going to be away from

so.

Well there are a few things to try for sure. 

The first thing I’d do is see whether it really turned itself off or just 
stopped talking. 

First, make sure it’s plugged in even if you think the battery is fine. 
Plugging it in will actually start it if it’s powered off in most cases. While 
you’re at it, and if it is plugged in, unplug it and replug it in. Note whether 
the little power noise happens.

This doesn’t guarantee anything I found with my last major problem, but try 
muting and unmuting it. If the phone has power, and if you can make it mute and 
unmute, you’ll get that little haptic on muting, this is another good indicator 
that you have power to it.

If you don’t have power to it, leave it plugged in for about 20 minutes and try 
all this again. 

So we’ve got power and it mutes and unmutes, but still not talking. Plug in 
some headphones. Or if you have it paired to a Bluetooth speaker or headset, 
activate that. If that gets sound, but the speaker does not, we can go from 
there. 

If you know you have power, you can try turninging voiceover on and off if 
you’ve set that up on triple click home.

If you still can’t get its attention, we’ll probably have to talk in prep for 
you to call Apple.

Re: Problem Solved, Guess I like This Phone More Than I Thought

[Arnold Schmidt]

Hi Bonnie, 

Unfortunately, the symptoms you describe may mean that your battery is 
beginning to fail. I have known them to be 30 or 40 percent charged, the phone 
just quits, and when plugged in, say some low digit percent. When I replaced 
the battery in this IPhone 6 in the spring, it went from about 40 percent at 
lunch to about 2 percent at 4 o'clock, having been used maybe half an hour's 
worth in the interveening time. I got the battery replaced at Batteries Plus 
for about 50 dollars. Being that your phone will update probably twice more, it 
would be worth replacing the battery since you like your phone.  If it does 
this sudden quitting again, that definitely is not a good sign. If I were you, 
I would take that other battery and cable along if I were going to be away from 
home for very long, in case it quits somewhere very inconvenient for it to do 
so.

Well there are a few things to try for sure.
The first thing I’d do is see whether it really turned itself off or just 
stopped talking.
First, make sure it’s plugged in even if you think the battery is fine. 
Plugging it in will actually start it if it’s powered off in most cases. While 
you’re at it, and if it is plugged in, unplug it and replug it in. Note whether 
the little power noise happens.
This doesn’t guarantee anything I found with my last major problem, but try 
muting and unmuting it. If the phone has power, and if you can make it mute and 
unmute, you’ll get that little haptic on muting, this is another good indicator 
that you have power to it.
If you don’t have power to it, leave it plugged in for about 20 minutes and try 
all this again.
So we’ve got power and it mutes and unmutes, but still not talking. Plug in 
some headphones. Or if you have it paired to a Bluetooth speaker or headset, 
activate that. If that gets sound, but the speaker does not, we can go from 
there.
If you know you have power, you can try turninging voiceover on and off if 
you’ve set that up on triple click home.
If you still can’t get its attention, we’ll probably have to talk in prep for 
you to call Apple.

Re: BSI, what happened?

[Arnold Schmidt]

I hope you have solved your problem by now, but if not, resetting all settings 
will fix it. When my BSI got completely messed up a couple years ago with 
symptoms similar to what you describe, that was the only way I found to fix it. 
Be forewarned that you may need sighted assistance to turn VoiceOver back on. 
Some have written to this list that VoiceOver eventually came back on after 
resetting all settings, mine did not. Siri also is disconected from the net, so 
it can't turn it back on, and when I hooked my phone to iTunes, it wanted me to 
respond on my phone that I trusted this computer, which I could not do with no 
VoiceOver. So, have sighted assistance backup if you need it.

Siri or dictation malfunction

['deidre muccio' via VIPhone]

Is this happening to anyone else?

since updating, when I am asked by Siri if I would like to replay or call back 
the person whose voice mail message I have just listened to, what happens is 
that the last person I have called is dialed back, not the person whose message 
i have just listened to., Along the same lines, sometimes the wrong person is 
called back and this can happen when the names are not even remotely alike. 
Come to think of it, it may b doing the same thing, simply calling back the 
last person I called or texted.

Today it took three tries before Siri was able to call the 
person I asked for that was in my Contacts. 

It's too bad we can't just tell Siri to look in Contacts, since 
if this is programmed in already, it isn't working all that well.

And I'm totally baffled why the more current IOS now takes me 
to the message field rather than let me dictate and send a text message without 
having to open the app. This was never the case when I was using 10.3. I think 
it has to do with the persons who are not iPhone users but those who use 
different types of phones, so their messages are not i messages. I went ahead 
and created shortcuts for the most commonly called or texted friends, but that 
hasn't helped either.

Any one or more steps I can avoid in performing any one 
function, like calling or texting someone using my phone, the better. That is 
why I have a smart phone to start with.

Is it possible all of this is because I use an 
i Phone 6 and not a higher model phone?

Re: Trouble With IPhone

[Julie Dawson]

You can make certain that the phone is not muted by moving the mute button in 
to the unmute position possibly. Also perhaps shut down your phone and then 
restart it for it to come back up. Make certain also to tell Siri to turn 
voiceover on.

Re: Question about removing AirPods from one's Apple ID

[Keith Bierman]

https://support.apple.com/kb/ph19302?locale=en_US . seems to make the
process clear in the Apple supported fashion. Summary: put the airpods in
their case:

   1.

   Sign in to Find My iPhone on this device with your Apple ID (the one you
   use with iCloud).
   2.

   In the Devices list, swipe left on the device, then tap Remove.

If your Apple Watch or AirPods come online

again,
they reappear in Find My iPhone. If the device reappears, *unpair

it
in Bluetooth Settings on all of your devices.*

I suspect that pairing the airpods with some other account would be helpful
... so if you are doing the transfer to someone else, while your phone is
off (or you've bluetooth unpaired it with your phone) having them press the
"re-pair" button the case and take over the airpods that might obviate the
need for unpairing with all devices. Those of us who have paired to a bevy
of our apple family products ... can't easily test the "deactivate from
findmyiphone") because any powerup finds *some* bluetooth device of ours ;>

Hi robin,

I think you just have to tell one of your devices to forget them, and they are 
removed from your account.

RE: Trouble With IPhone

[Deb Cook Lewis]

Well there are a few things to try for sure. 

The first thing I’d do is see whether it really turned itself off or just 
stopped talking. 

First, make sure it’s plugged in even if you think the battery is fine. 
Plugging it in will actually start it if it’s powered off in most cases. While 
you’re at it, and if it is plugged in, unplug it and replug it in. Note whether 
the little power noise happens.

This doesn’t guarantee anything I found with my last major problem, but try 
muting and unmuting it. If the phone has power, and if you can make it mute and 
unmute, you’ll get that little haptic on muting, this is another good indicator 
that you have power to it.

If you don’t have power to it, leave it plugged in for about 20 minutes and try 
all this again. 

So we’ve got power and it mutes and unmutes, but still not talking. Plug in 
some headphones. Or if you have it paired to a Bluetooth speaker or headset, 
activate that. If that gets sound, but the speaker does not, we can go from 
there. 

If you know you have power, you can try turninging voiceover on and off if 
you’ve set that up on triple click home.

If you still can’t get its attention, we’ll probably have to talk in prep for 
you to call Apple.

I’ve always been able ultimately to recover my phone, there are a few things 
that typically happen. But the very most recent time it was a total system fail 
and Apple had to replace it. Even that was a challenge, I had to use Rick’s 
phone to get into mine to turn off Find My Iphone for them. If we get to that 
miserable place, I can do that for you as well because it’s something they will 
not do. But we’re not to that yet. 

Let me know if none of this gets it, I’m home all day if you need to call.

I was just listening to notifications when my phhone either locked or turned

I believe he said he got to the button for play and when he tapped it nothing

available for list members to download. I have been finding the Leo
Laporte specials on his T Y T network useful. A panel covers the
entire event live and describes the action on stage and offers ongoing
commentary. It can be listened to live or downloaded as a podcast.

https://twit.tv/shows/twit-live-specials

I personally do not plan to convert the event for my personal
listening any more. Does anyone still want it or could folks just
listen to Leo and the crew with me.

Apple's 'By Innovation Only' new iPhone event is on Sept. 10

[Richard Turner]

Apple's 'By Innovation Only' new iPhone event is on Sept. 10 By Malcolm Owen 
Thursday, August 29, 2019, 09:05 am PT (12:05 pm ET) Apple has revealed the 
date of its annual September event, the venue of the company's refresh of the 
iPhone product line, with invitations to the media confirming this year's event 
will take place on Tuesday, September 10. Apple's "By Innovation Only" 
September 10 event invitation Members of the media have been informed of an 
event that will take place at 10 a.m. Pacific time in the Steve Jobs Theater, a 
building within the Apple Park campus in Cupertino. AppleInsider will be 
covering the event live, providing full analysis during and after the event, 
with particular attention made towards the iPhone launches. Confirming earlier 
rumors , this years' event takes place two days earlier than the one held in 
2018, which was for the launch of the iPhone XS , iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR. 
The event has been a staple of September for the last eight years, starting 
with the iPhone 5 in 2012, with the launch and release of the new models a 
regular occurrence that capitalizes on the following holiday shopping period. 
Loosely known as the "iPhone 11" collection, this year's models are rumored to 
consist of three variants, with two premium OLED models accompanied by a third 
value-oriented LCD version, similar to 2018. Aside from the expected 
specifications bump, the new models will have one significant change over other 
versions. The dominating rumor is that Apple will move to add an extra camera 
on the rear of each model across the board, bringing the OLED models up to 
three cameras and the LCD variant up to two. The extra camera is considered to 
have a wide-angle lens to accompany regular and telephoto versions. There has 
been some speculation Apple will add the "Pro" tag to at least one of the 
models, expanding the branding suffix to its premier product line for the first 
time. There is also the belief that Apple will include the ability to recharge 
other devices , possibly wirelessly, remove 3D Touch from all models, and will 
have a modified mute switch . Other products like a new iPad Pro family, a 
budget iPad, and so forth are expected soon . It isn't clear if Apple will just 
be talking about the iPhone at the event, or hold an event in October like it 
has done in the past. .

RE: Siri doesn't talk; help

[Richard Turner]

Siri doesn't always talk.  Sometimes, what is asked, Siri says something like, 
this is what I found, check it out.
That is usually a web site or three.
If the Siri feedback is set to always, and you ask a question that Siri finds 
on the web, that is what you get and you have to use VoiceOver or Speak Screen, 
to read the answer.

Go to settings, then to Siri settings, then set Voice Feedback to Always.

Re: Siri claims I have no voicemail messages and refuses to dial!

['Harry Bell' via VIPhone]

Again, Siri says she cannot dial that number. It is curious that on my other 
iPhone where I created a contact with a number 443, Siri will ring that contact 
and that number takes me tgrough to the voicemail for that different carrier. 
So, it cannot be because the number is too short. Hey, ho!

Re: Siri claims I have no voicemail messages and refuses to dial!

[Richard Turner]

It could be it does not like short numbers. But have you tried saying dial  
instead of call?


Richard

Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2.

Subject: Re: Siri claims I have no voicemail messages and refuses to dial!

Im in the uk and it may be different here. I have an iphone XS with a BT SIM 
and an iphone 7 with Giffgaff. I can access voicemails on both iphones eitger 
from the Voicemail tab in the Phone app or by manually dialing the carrier’s 
voicemail number. But siri says she cannot dial the numbrrs and if asked to 
call voicemail, she claims i have no voivemail messages. The workaround on my 
iogone 7 is to create a new Contact called Giffgaff with the phone number as 
443 (Giffgaff’s voicemail) - and now i can ask siri to call Giffgaff and she 
puts me tgrough to Giffgaff voicemail. This does not work woth the BT number as 
siri tells me she cannot dial that number (1571). This seems to be a siri 
problem - after all, my voicemail itself works fine.

Possible help with streaming via Safari

[Jim Portillo]

Greetings,

This list has always been of great help, so I hope you can help me problem 
solve something.
I’m trying to stream a station that is not available through the popular apps, 
such as TuneIn or OoTunes.  It’s a particular kind of station that is online or 
on the air in its original city.
When I go to it in Safari, I’m able to get all the way to where I can 
double-tab on the icon to stream the station.  It takes me there, but no sound 
comes out.  I know the station works because I can stream it via the computer.
If I remember right, something similar happened with something else I was 
trying to stream via Safari.  Is there some sort of setting I should be using?  
I did go to the Safari settings but couldn’t find anything to help me with this 
issue.
Oh, I also did try using the actual google app to find the particular station, 
but it went through safari anyway and still wouldn’t actually produce sound 
from the station.  I do know it loads the station itself because the play list 
comes up.
If anyone has any suggestions, please send them my way.  I’d appreciate it.
Thanks.
Jim Portillo
