Re: Bookshare on the iPhone?

[Joshua Hendrickson]

Hi Rebecca.  You should purchase the voice dream reader app for $15.
This will quickly become the best $15 you've ever spent.  Voice dream
reader allows you not only to listen to bookshare books, but audio
books as well.  You can also read other Ebook formats like .txt, or
.epub and also .PDF to name just a few formats.  You can use the IOS
voices to listen to your Bookshare titles, or you can purchase
additional high quality voices like those from Acapela, Ivona, or
Neospeech for only $5 per voice.  I have a few bookshare books on my
iPhone, but I've been reading some Ebooks in .txt format, and this
works beautifully with the Voice Dream reader app.

RE: What's the difference between the Microsoft Office app and the previous separate apps comprising it?

[Simon A Fogarty]

In simple terms its powerpoint but built specifically for the mobile platform,

It lets you build presentation type products while on the go,
It’s not a bad program
It’s more no one has ever given me any good instructions on  how to use it 
properly so I’ve just played to get things working.

Richard,

Most of the Microsoft apps in the IOs app store are office 365 products,

Yes word excel & powerpoint are the basic package although individual apps for 
phone and iPad.

But there are a number of others including outlook, sway, and a truckload of 
others.so it  depends on what app it was that had the redownload beside it.

Here is the description from the app store. It combines all of them into this 
one app.

The Office app combines the Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps you know and rely 
on with new capabilities that harness the unique strengths of a phone to create 
a simpler, yet more powerful Office experience on the go. Whether using it for 
personal or professional reasons, the Office app is designed to be your go-to 
app for getting work done on a mobile device. Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 
combined in one app: • The most widely used tools for working with documents, 
spreadsheets, and presentations, all from a single app.  • Create, edit, and 
work together on Office documents with others in real-time. • Use templates to 
easily get started with your resume, budget, presentations, and other 
documents.  • Easily store, access and search for Word, Excel, PowerPoint files 
stored in your personal cloud storage, on your device, or across your 
organization (if using a work account). Uniquely mobile ways that make document 
creation easier: • Snap a picture of a document and turn it into an editable 
Word file with the press of a button. • Transform a picture of a table into an 
Excel spreadsheet so you can work with the data. • Let PowerPoint help you 
design a presentation by simply selecting the pictures you want to use from 
your phone. • Create automatically enhanced digital images of whiteboards and 
documents with Office Lens features integrated into the app. Quickly perform 
common mobile tasks with built-in Actions: • Instantly create PDFs from photos 
or Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents. • Easily transfer files between your 
phone and computer.  • Sign PDFs using your finger. • Quickly jot down ideas 
and notes with Sticky Notes. • Scan QR codes to open links. Anyone can download 
the Office app for free and start using it right away. Access and save 
documents to the cloud by connecting with a Microsoft Account (for OneDrive or 
SharePoint) or by connecting to a third-party cloud storage provider. Logging 
in with a personal, work, or school Microsoft Account connected to an Office 
365 subscription will unlock premium features within the app. Subscription & 
Privacy Disclaimer   Unlock the full Microsoft Office experience with a 
qualifying Office 365 subscription for your phone, tablet, PC and Mac.  Monthly 
Office 365 subscriptions purchased from the app will be charged to your App 
Store account and will automatically renew within 24 hours prior to the end of 
the current subscription period unless auto-renewal is disabled beforehand. You 
can manage your subscriptions in your App Store account settings.  This app is

RE: Flicktype

[Alan Lemly]

Joe,

I'll do my best to answer your first question about FlickType punctuation. You 
should know that I use FlickType in full screen mode when typing with it and 
then revert to the iOS standard keyboard. If I'm typing a phrase that ends with 
a comma as I did just now, I'd swipe once to put a period after the word now 
and then single finger swipe down to select comma from the choices presented by 
FlickType. After FlickType says comma, you then just continue typing. 

As I stated, I use FlickType in full screen mode so when I'm composing a text, 
I start out with the standard iOS on screen keyboard and go first to the 
message text box and select FlickType from the keyboard button to the left of 
the spacebar. I then compose my text message using FlickType's full screen mode 
and when I'm done, I single finger slide up the screen and stop to change back 
to the standard iOS keyboard where the text I typed with FlickType is placed in 
the message text box. I then single finger swipe right once and land on the 
send button. I'm not sure how my method differs but perhaps you've got 
FlickType set to other than full screen mode. I prefer leaving my iPhone set to 
the standard iOS on screen keyboard and moving to FlickType full screen when I 
need to type something.

As to your final question, I leave my keyboard set to the standard iOS on 
screen keyboard and use the button to the left of the spacebar to switch to 
FlickType as needed. I then use the single finger slide up and hold to revert 
back to the standard iOS keyboard. I don't know whether this method is more 
cohesive but it works for me. You might consider subscribing to the FlickType 
email list by sending a blank email to flicktype+subscr...@groups.io if you 
have other questions.

Hello,

Flicktype is a wonderful app. My typing dramatically increases when I use it, 
but there are a few things I cannot seem to get the hang of even after 
reviewing their website. I'm hoping you can help me out.

First, how can I more easily insert punctuation other than a period? I know I 
can swipe right twice and then swipe down to see a list of additional 
punctuation, but if I want to select a comma, I don't know how to select this 
without swiping right and inserting another period.

Second, is there a seamless way of finding the Send button after typing out a 
text message? I feel as though I get lost in the Flicktype sphere, and in the 
process of finding the Send button I wind up adding random characters to the 
end of my message.

Finally, the only way I know of to change keyboards is to tap the keyboard icon 
at the bottom of the keyboard and slide up to hear the other available 
keyboards. Is this the only method, or is there something more cohesive?

Thank you for any help.

Joe

There is a way to filter messages between those from contacts and those 
which are spam. I have this turned on, and in theory, it should send those 
dreaded spam messages into a separate list. I thought there was a way to 
mark a message as spam, and have it then go into that spam messages list, 
but I don't recall how to do so. There should also be a spam forwarding 
address from your carrier which you can forward those spam messages to. I 
get those group spams as well, and the best solution for now is to block the 
original sender of the message. If you want to invest a bit more time, you 
can get the AT Call Protect app and report messages as spam, presuming you 
are on AT Other carriers probably have ways you can report spam texts to 
them.


Good luck,

Re: Question about outlook and iCloud

[PRAMIT BHARGAVA]

Hello Rena,

To sync your iphone contacts with Outlook follow the steps below

1. Close Outlook.
2. Open iCloud for Windows.
3. Deselect the Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks checkbox and click Apply.
4. Wait a few seconds. Select Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click
Apply.
5. Open Outlook.

Also Make sure that the iCloud Outlook Add-in is on
The iCloud Outlook Add-in transfers your content between iCloud and
Outlook. Follow these steps in Outlook 2010 and later to check and turn on
the Add-in:

1. Select the File menu.
2. From the left panel select Options.
3. Now from the left panel select Add-ins.
4. Look at the list of add-ins in the Active Application Add-ins section.
If the iCloud Add-in is listed under Inactive or Disabled Add-ins, make
sure that Com Add-ins is selected in the drop-down menu next to Manage at
the bottom of the window. Then select Go.
5. Select the iCloud Outlook Add-in checkbox, then select OK.
6. Restart Outlook.

Hope this helps

Pramit

Richard,

Most of the Microsoft apps in the IOs app store are office 365 products,

Yes word excel & powerpoint are the basic package although individual 
apps for phone and iPad.


But there are a number of others including outlook, sway, and a 
truckload of others.so it  depends on what app it was that had the

Here is the description from the app store. It combines all of them 
into this one app.


The Office app combines the Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps you know 
and rely on with new capabilities that harness the unique strengths of 
a phone to create a simpler, yet more powerful Office experience on 
the go. Whether using it for personal or professional reasons, the 
Office app is designed to be your go-to app for getting work done on a 
mobile device. Word, Excel, and PowerPoint combined in one app: • The 
most widely used tools for working with documents, spreadsheets, and 
presentations, all from a single app.  • Create, edit, and work 
together on Office documents with others in real-time. • Use templates 
to easily get started with your resume, budget, presentations, and 
other documents.  • Easily store, access and search for Word, Excel, 
PowerPoint files stored in your personal cloud storage, on your 
device, or across your organization (if using a work account). 
Uniquely mobile ways that make document creation easier: • Snap a 
picture of a document and turn it into an editable Word file with the 
press of a button. • Transform a picture of a table into an Excel 
spreadsheet so you can work with the data. • Let PowerPoint help you 
design a presentation by simply selecting the pictures you want to use 
from your phone. • Create automatically enhanced digital images of 
whiteboards and documents with Office Lens features integrated into 
the app. Quickly perform common mobile tasks with built-in Actions: • 
Instantly create PDFs from photos or Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 
documents. • Easily transfer files between your phone and computer.  • 
Sign PDFs using your finger. • Quickly jot down ideas and notes with 
Sticky Notes. • Scan QR codes to open links. Anyone can download the 
Office app for free and start using it right away. Access and save 
documents to the cloud by connecting with a Microsoft Account (for 
OneDrive or SharePoint) or by connecting to a third-party cloud 
storage provider. Logging in with a personal, work, or school 
Microsoft Account connected to an Office 365 subscription will unlock 
premium features within the app. Subscription & Privacy Disclaimer   
Unlock the full Microsoft Office experience with a qualifying Office 
365 subscription for your phone, tablet, PC and Mac.  Monthly Office 
365 subscriptions purchased from the app will be charged to your App 
Store account and will automatically renew within 24 hours prior to 
the end of the current subscription period unless auto-renewal is 
disabled beforehand. You can manage your subscriptions in your App 
Store account settings.  This app is provided by either Microsoft or a 
third-party app publisher and is subject to a separate privacy 
statement and terms and conditions. Data provided through the use of 
this store and this app may be accessible to Microsoft or the 
third-party app publisher, as applicable, and transferred to, stored

Microsoft or the app publisher and their affiliates or service 
providers maintain facilities.  Please refer to the Microsoft Software 
License Terms for Microsoft Office. See “License Agreement” link under

There is a way to filter messages between those from contacts and those which are spam. 
I have this turned on, and in theory, it should send those dreaded spam messages into a 
separate list. I thought there was a way to mark a message as spam, and have it then go 
into that spam messages list, but I don't recall how to do so. There should also be a 
spam forwarding address from your carrier which you can forward those spam messages to. 
I get those group spams as well, and the best solution for now is to block the original 
sender of the message. If you want to invest a bit more time, you can get the AT 
Call Protect app and report messages as spam, presuming you are on AT Other 
carriers probably have ways you can report spam texts to them.

Good luck,

RE: What's the difference between the Microsoft Office app and the previous separate apps comprising it?

[Alan Lemly]

Simon,

 

As I said in my original message, the app I searched for in the App Store was 
Microsoft Office which came up at the top of the results list with a 
re-download button next to it. Since I already have the separate Word, Excel, 
and Powerpoint apps installed on my iPhone, I'm wondering what difference there 
is between those separate apps and this apparently combined one. I don't have a 
Microsoft Office 365 subscription nor do I intend to get one. Office 2010 
Professional works just fine on my computer and I'm not interested in getting 
on the Microsoft subscription train.

Hi allan,

 

It probably depends on what the app actually is,

 

Can you tell us what the name of the app is?

 

And there are a lot of Microsoft office 365 apps available for your iPhone the 
main ones being word, excel and power point,

 

There is also outlook, sway, team, to do, a number of dynamic 365 apps,

 

So you need to provide the actual name.

Hi List,

 

Although I don't do much with Word or Excel on my iPhone, I've been keeping 
them updated and noticed a couple of weeks ago that they had one of those major 
app update descriptions where everything was supposedly improved and the look 
and feel was substantially modified. I saw a post from another list where a 
Microsoft Office app was mentioned so I just now searched for it in the App 
Store and notice that the button to its right doesn't say get as usual but says 
re-download. I've never downloaded this app but have only downloaded Word, 
Excel, and PowerPoint. Does anyone know what is the difference between this 
Office app and the separate components I already have on my iPhone?

 

Thanks in advance.

Re: Syincing iPhone with iTunes

Try having your phone connected by the USB cable, then launch iTunes.
After it loads, tab a lot until you hear music, then the next button should be 
iPhone.
Hit space or enter on that button.

Well, I am a huge fan of the Fopydo scanning stand. But, I think he has run

I'll not voice my opinion of that post office ... but you may want to check 
with the NFB Store.
I do not have that link handy, but I believe he was going to work with them 
because they could buy in bulk and ship free matter.
I was a beta tester when he was designing the stand.
Its my favorite.
Another one that is pretty good, but $39.99 or so, is the one sold through

Re: Audio description on CBS all access using iPhone or Apple TV

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, when you bring up the episode, you have to go into the Settings 
button while the show is playing. Sometimes this means double tapping 
the screen in an empty area so the player controls will come up. Once 
you choose Settings, you will find the audio. On my iPad Pro, it's 
labeled as English AD. Double tap that and now when you play the show, 
it will be described. I have found that the setting sticks mostly, 
however in case not, simply repeat the steps and it will work. In my 
case, the setting reverted after 2 episodes, but putting it back was a 
snap. I only wish that CBS would have done the same for the Amazon and 
the Android apps considering that I have an Amazon Edition television 
with my Sonos system and I also have a few Android devices.


Good luck.

send those dreaded spam messages into a separate list. I thought there
was a way to mark a message as spam, and have it then go into that
spam messages list, but I don't recall how to do so. There should also
be a spam forwarding address from your carrier which you can forward
those spam messages to. I get those group spams as well, and the best
solution for now is to block the original sender of the message. If
you want to invest a bit more time, you can get the AT Call Protect
app and report messages as spam, presuming you are on AT Other
carriers probably have ways you can report spam texts to them.

Good luck,
Wayne

Flicktype

[Joe Orozco]

Hello,

Flicktype is a wonderful app. My typing dramatically increases when I
use it, but there are a few things I cannot seem to get the hang of
even after reviewing their website. I'm hoping you can help me out.

First, how can I more easily insert punctuation other than a period? I
know I can swipe right twice and then swipe down to see a list of
additional punctuation, but if I want to select a comma, I don't know
how to select this without swiping right and inserting another period.

Second, is there a seamless way of finding the Send button after
typing out a text message? I feel as though I get lost in the
Flicktype sphere, and in the process of finding the Send button I wind
up adding random characters to the end of my message.

Finally, the only way I know of to change keyboards is to tap the
keyboard icon at the bottom of the keyboard and slide up to hear the
other available keyboards. Is this the only method, or is there
something more cohesive?

Thank you for any help.

Joe

Richard,

 

Most of the Microsoft apps in the IOs app store are office 365 products,

 

Yes word excel & powerpoint are the basic package although individual apps for 
phone and iPad.

 

But there are a number of others including outlook, sway, and a truckload of 
others.so it  depends on what app it was that had the redownload beside it.

Here is the description from the app store. It combines all of them into this 
one app. 

 

The Office app combines the Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps you know and rely 
on with new capabilities that harness the unique strengths of a phone to create 
a simpler, yet more powerful Office experience on the go. Whether using it for 
personal or professional reasons, the Office app is designed to be your go-to 
app for getting work done on a mobile device. Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 
combined in one app: • The most widely used tools for working with documents, 
spreadsheets, and presentations, all from a single app.  • Create, edit, and 
work together on Office documents with others in real-time. • Use templates to 
easily get started with your resume, budget, presentations, and other 
documents.  • Easily store, access and search for Word, Excel, PowerPoint files 
stored in your personal cloud storage, on your device, or across your 
organization (if using a work account). Uniquely mobile ways that make document 
creation easier: • Snap a picture of a document and turn it into an editable 
Word file with the press of a button. • Transform a picture of a table into an 
Excel spreadsheet so you can work with the data. • Let PowerPoint help you 
design a presentation by simply selecting the pictures you want to use from 
your phone. • Create automatically enhanced digital images of whiteboards and 
documents with Office Lens features integrated into the app. Quickly perform 
common mobile tasks with built-in Actions: • Instantly create PDFs from photos 
or Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents. • Easily transfer files between your 
phone and computer.  • Sign PDFs using your finger. • Quickly jot down ideas 
and notes with Sticky Notes. • Scan QR codes to open links. Anyone can download 
the Office app for free and start using it right away. Access and save 
documents to the cloud by connecting with a Microsoft Account (for OneDrive or 
SharePoint) or by connecting to a third-party cloud storage provider. Logging 
in with a personal, work, or school Microsoft Account connected to an Office 
365 subscription will unlock premium features within the app. Subscription & 
Privacy Disclaimer   Unlock the full Microsoft Office experience with a 
qualifying Office 365 subscription for your phone, tablet, PC and Mac.  Monthly 
Office 365 subscriptions purchased from the app will be charged to your App 
Store account and will automatically renew within 24 hours prior to the end of 
the current subscription period unless auto-renewal is disabled beforehand. You 
can manage your subscriptions in your App Store account settings.  This app is 
provided by either Microsoft or a third-party app publisher and is subject to a 
separate privacy statement and terms and conditions. Data provided through the 
use of this store and this app may be accessible to Microsoft or the 
third-party app publisher, as applicable, and transferred to, stored and

Re: Audio description on CBS all access using iPhone or Apple TV

[Ed Worrell]

Hello,

On the Apple TB: After you have started the video swipe down on the track pad 
part of the remote assuming you are using a 4th Gen. or higher A-Tv. Swipe left 
to the audio tab, then swipe down, you will have an option with AD after it. 
Example: English AD. This is your audio description track.

On the iPhone or iPad: After the video is playing double tap with one finger to 
bring up the play controls, find the media selection option and the AD track 
should be in this menu. I am not seeing this on the show though. I am 
subscribing to CBS All Access through the Apple TV Channels option in the A-Tv 
app. This might be the difference. It might be there in the All Access stand 
alone app.

You can also turn on the Audio Description option in iOS or TV OS In the OS 
settings app.

I hope this helps a little bit.

RE: What's the difference between the Microsoft Office app and the previous separate apps comprising it?

[Richard Turner]

I did download it, but clearly I was not clear about that in my post with the 
description, grin.
Your individual apps will work the same as always.
This one just exposes you to all the file types, minus Outlook, in one app.
I do not think the editing features are any more useful than in the stand alone 
apps, but it is an interesting approach and at least for sighted folks who want 
to edit and collaborate with others on Office files, it will be a welcome tool.

This process worked for me.  I had sighted help and they said this is the 
process.  Blocking the person should also block the text and massages.  So 
far no more of those silly things on my phone. At least from the blocked 
ones.  My friend says they are fishing and looking for responses and if i 
am unsure, just repeat he process. These people are relentless and may try 
it again with another number just like when we all were getting those dumb 
ass IRS calls threatening jail if we didn't pay.  Hoping you have luck.

RE: Question about iPhone with focus 40 blue

[Richard Turner]

Which generation of Focus 40 is it?
Are they for sure pairing through the braille settings and not just the 
Bluetooth setting?
The phone should be in lock or sleep mode when you turn on or off the braille 
display to insure it connects correctly.

Hello,
What have you tried in order to fix this? Whenever I’ve had that hproblem, and 
it’s been a while since I had it, a shutdown and restart of the phone has fixed 
it. Perhaps turning off and then turning VoiceOver on, may not be sufficient to 
solve it. It might have something to do with changing from a computer with USB 
to the phone with BT, (or vice versa,) with the display being on all the time.

The other possibility I thought of would be that the braille display’s keyboard 
could be locked, but AFAIK then none of its keys would work.

work on his iPhone when using the cord commands.  The rocker switch and the 
little enter key on the right work, but if you use cord h for home or cord b 
for back or any cord commands it will not do anything.  Is there something we

Hi List,

Although I don't do much with Word or Excel on my iPhone, I've been 
keeping them updated and noticed a couple of weeks ago that they had 
one of those major app update descriptions where everything was 
supposedly improved and the look and feel was substantially modified. 
I saw a post from another list where a Microsoft Office app was

Thanks in advance.

Here is the description from the app store. It combines all of them 
into this one app.


The Office app combines the Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps you know 
and rely on with new capabilities that harness the unique strengths of 
a phone to create a simpler, yet more powerful Office experience on 
the go. Whether using it for personal or professional reasons, the 
Office app is designed to be your go-to app for getting work done on a 
mobile device. Word, Excel, and PowerPoint combined in one app: • The 
most widely used tools for working with documents, spreadsheets, and 
presentations, all from a single app.  • Create, edit, and work 
together on Office documents with others in real-time. • Use templates 
to easily get started with your resume, budget, presentations, and 
other documents.  • Easily store, access and search for Word, Excel, 
PowerPoint files stored in your personal cloud storage, on your 
device, or across your organization (if using a work account). 
Uniquely mobile ways that make document creation easier: • Snap a 
picture of a document and turn it into an editable Word file with the 
press of a button. • Transform a picture of a table into an Excel 
spreadsheet so you can work with the data. • Let PowerPoint help you 
design a presentation by simply selecting the pictures you want to use 
from your phone. • Create automatically enhanced digital images of 
whiteboards and documents with Office Lens features integrated into 
the app. Quickly perform common mobile tasks with built-in Actions: • 
Instantly create PDFs from photos or Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 
documents. • Easily transfer files between your phone and computer.  • 
Sign PDFs using your finger. • Quickly jot down ideas and notes with 
Sticky Notes. • Scan QR codes to open links. Anyone can download the 
Office app for free and start using it right away. Access and save 
documents to the cloud by connecting with a Microsoft Account (for 
OneDrive or SharePoint) or by connecting to a third-party cloud 
storage provider. Logging in with a personal, work, or school 
Microsoft Account connected to an Office 365 subscription will unlock 
premium features within the app. Subscription & Privacy Disclaimer   
Unlock the full Microsoft Office experience with a qualifying Office 
365 subscription for your phone, tablet, PC and Mac.  Monthly Office 
365 subscriptions purchased from the app will be charged to your App 
Store account and will automatically renew within 24 hours prior to 
the end of the current subscription period unless auto-renewal is 
disabled beforehand. You can manage your subscriptions in your App 
Store account settings.  This app is provided by either Microsoft or a 
third-party app publisher and is subject to a separate privacy 
statement and terms and conditions. Data provided through the use of 
this store and this app may be accessible to Microsoft or the 
third-party app publisher, as applicable, and transferred to, stored 
and processed in the United States or any other country where 
Microsoft or the app publisher and their affiliates or service 
providers maintain facilities.  Please refer to the Microsoft Software 
License Terms for Microsoft Office. See “License Agreement” link under 
Information. By installing the app, you agree to these terms and 
conditions.

Hi List,

Although I don't do much with Word or Excel on my iPhone, I've been keeping 
them updated and noticed a couple of weeks ago that they had one of those major 
app update descriptions where everything was supposedly improved and the look 
and feel was substantially modified. I saw a post from another list where a 
Microsoft Office app was mentioned so I just now searched for it in the App 
Store and notice that the button to its right doesn't say get as usual but says 
re-download. I've never downloaded this app but have only downloaded Word, 
Excel, and PowerPoint. Does anyone know what is the difference between this 
Office app and the separate components I already have on my iPhone?

Thanks in advance.

Dice world works fine on my Android device. All messages go back and forth

great on Android, so I wonder if it's the iPhone app? Take care
