SIM card has nothing to do with iPhone speed. SIM card is for service.

I’m on the Verizon site now and one caveat I see to buying from there is that 
they say the trade in for my current phone is only $35, whereas Apple will give 
me $80. If Verizon waives the activation fee, which I think a store sales 
person recently told me is $40, that balances out with the savings I would get 
direct from Apple.  Not even sure if I want to trade in this one, or keep it 
for my kids to use like an iTouch. 

I’m a bit nervous on the sim card stuff,  so I’ll call Apple and see what they 
say about activation fees.

I agree.  It also gives you flexibility if you want to leave said carrier.

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone 
directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your 
existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.

I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.

They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.

I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

 

It is all down to personal preference.

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020.  I can pay full price thanks to the 
stimulus check.  I’ve gotten my last two phones from Verizon, but wonder if 
there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe 
the same is true if I activate via Apple.  Verizon will unlock the phone after 
60 days.  Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, 
even though I didn’t have Apple Care.  So, is there a reason to buy direct from 
Apple or is this just a preference thing?

Hello Dennis,

I plan on purchasing a subscription later this weekend so I will probably 
schedule another meeting next week.

What I think I will do is send a general meeting notification to the group, 
first, then, about 10 minutes before the meeting is to start, I will send the 
meeting link to the group.  This may cut down on any risk of encountering a 
Zoom Bomb.

We will see.

If Apple ever decided to make a 4.7 inch phone with an OLED screen and 
virtually no screen bezel as well as Face Id so that the home button wouldn't 
have to take up space at the bottom of the screen they could easily make such a 
phone in the size of an old 5S or the original SE. Of course whether this is 
going to happen is anybody's guess, don't think it is anything which we'll see 
in the next couple of years, but who knows what they'll do in 3 or 4 years.

Thanks, I could not recall or find the size of the original se, the phone I

sticking with what I have as long as I can.  You might recall that I purchased 
an se with more space not that long ago.  It was a mess getting the thing to

Subject: RE: Ordered a new SE this morning

 

First of all, Kitty, the new iPhone SE which was just released is the exact 
same size/format of the iPhon e 8 and that is equal to a 4.7 inch screen.

The original iPhone SE which was released in the spring of 2016 had for the 
most part the internals of the iPhone 6S which was released in the fall of 
2015, but it was actually a 4 inch phone like the old iPhone 5 and 5S from 2012 
and 2013.

As for iOS 14, I think it’s entirely possible that the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus and 
the original SE still get this year’s iOS release. After all, the iPhone 5S 
which was released in 2013 with iOS 7 preinstalled got all the upgrades 
including iOS 12 in 2018, only last fall did it not get iOS 13 any more. This 
means after the OS it shipped with it got 5 more iOS updartes, all the way from 
2013 to 2018 or 6 years.

The iPhone 6S/6S Plus and the original SE were all released with iOS 9 
preinstalled and so far they received iOS 10, 11, 12 and 13, that is one 
version less than the 5S.

My wife and I both also have the iPhone 8 and we will definitely not upgrade to 
this new iPhone SE just for the sake of going from 2 Gb to 3 Gb of RAM and from 
the A11 to the A13 processor. In real life you won’t notice that much of a 
difference and anybody who argues that on this new phone apps open faster, the 
app switcher come sup faster and so on should ask themselves how many seconds a 
day they’ll save and whether that is really worth it. Anybody who still has an 
iPhone 6 or even a 5S should probably upgrade, but I want to see what Apple 
comes up with this fall. I really want a phone with Face Id and 5G support, but 
unless there are some other compelling aspects I will probably wait until the 
fall of 2021.

RE: Zoom meeting invitation - V iPhone Group, Let’s Talk via Zoo m

2020-04-18 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Duane,

I will definitely be scheduling more meetings.  

As I understand it, after I purchase a subscription, I can then include call-in 
telephone numbers in the invitation.

I expect that we will schedule meetings as different times of the day, from 
time-to-time, so that everyone will have an opportunity to participate.

Please keep in mind, however, that these meetings will be extremely informal 
and will most likely take place when my schedule permits.  

More often than not, I suspect that there will be little more than a couple of 
hours notice before a scheduled meeting because, as we all know, life can 
sometimes get in the way (smile).

So, check back often.

Mark.

I love Zoom, and have a regular account that I use for all kinds of meetings.  
I missed the meeting too.  Well, I got in for a short time but was told the 
host had not arrived.  The free version only gives us 40 minutes, and the paid 
version when used in conjunction with the Zoom APP is really great, and 
user-friendly with our iPhones.  Please schedule another meeting soon, and 
those of us on the east coast will enter zwe are able.  Also, include phone 
numbers so that people without zoom access in any other way may also join.  
Please schedule one again, soon, and give us adequate time to prepare to join.  
It's a great way to meet and learn things about our devices.
 

Peace & Blessings,

Hello Dennis,

I plan on purchasing a subscription later this weekend so I will probably 
schedule another meeting next week.

What I think I will do is send a general meeting notification to the group, 
first, then, about 10 minutes before the meeting is to start, I will send the 
meeting link to the group.  This may cut down on any risk of encountering a 
Zoom Bomb.

We will see.

Hi Gordon and Everyone,

That was great!

Thank you all for joining our meeting.  

I will definitely purchase a subscription so that we can have meetings without 
a 40-minute time limit.  You guys are definitely worth it.

Perhaps we can pick a topic for each meeting or something.

Again, thank you all for calling in.

Mark

I had to jump out of the meeting because I have some new furniture to unload. 
It was nice talking with those of you who were able to come out and I hope we 
do this again.

RE: Ordered a new SE this morning

2020-04-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
If Apple ever decided to make a 4.7 inch phone with an OLED screen and 
virtually no screen bezel as well as Face Id so that the home button wouldn't 
have to take up space at the bottom of the screen they could easily make such a 
phone in the size of an old 5S or the original SE. Of course whether this is 
going to happen is anybody's guess, don't think it is anything which we'll see 
in the next couple of years, but who knows what they'll do in 3 or 4 years.

Definitely, I don't think there'll ever be a phone that small again. I'm

the original SE phones.

Thanks, I could not recall or find the size of the original se, the phone I 
currently have.  Since I don’t like the larger phones, I will definitely be 
sticking with what I have as long as I can.  You might recall that I purchased 
an se with more space not that long ago.  It was a mess getting the thing to 
work, but persistence, help from folks on this list, apple accessability desk, 
and geniuses at the apple bar, I succeeded.

Subject: RE: Ordered a new SE this morning

 

First of all, Kitty, the new iPhone SE which was just released is the exact 
same size/format of the iPhon e 8 and that is equal to a 4.7 inch screen.

The original iPhone SE which was released in the spring of 2016 had for the 
most part the internals of the iPhone 6S which was released in the fall of 
2015, but it was actually a 4 inch phone like the old iPhone 5 and 5S from 2012 
and 2013.

As for iOS 14, I think it’s entirely possible that the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus and 
the original SE still get this year’s iOS release. After all, the iPhone 5S 
which was released in 2013 with iOS 7 preinstalled got all the upgrades 
including iOS 12 in 2018, only last fall did it not get iOS 13 any more. This 
means after the OS it shipped with it got 5 more iOS updartes, all the way from 
2013 to 2018 or 6 years.

The iPhone 6S/6S Plus and the original SE were all released with iOS 9 
preinstalled and so far they received iOS 10, 11, 12 and 13, that is one 
version less than the 5S.

My wife and I both also have the iPhone 8 and we will definitely not upgrade to 
this new iPhone SE just for the sake of going from 2 Gb to 3 Gb of RAM and from 
the A11 to the A13 processor. In real life you won’t notice that much of a 
difference and anybody who argues that on this new phone apps open faster, the 
app switcher come sup faster and so on should ask themselves how many seconds a 
day they’ll save and whether that is really worth it. Anybody who still has an 
iPhone 6 or even a 5S should probably upgrade, but I want to see what Apple 
comes up with this fall. I really want a phone with Face Id and 5G support, but 
unless there are some other compelling aspects I will probably wait until the 
fall of 2021.

It is not the same size as the old one. 
It is more the size of the standard iPhone 8.
So current cases will not fit it.
 
The old SE is worth $30 in trade.
I plan to use my old one as a music and book player as a WiFi only

RE: to buy SE 2020 from Verizon or Apple?

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
Each carrier is different.  Some charge some don't.
Verizon for example, if you deal with a kiosk or "retail" store, they can 
charge as much as $20; but the Verizon Corporate stores charge nothing.

I thought there must be a charge for them. I think that was what the first ten

2020-04-18 Thread Dave

Yes you can.

and it's pretty easy to put in a sim card.

You just have to be careful, that you don't drop it, as they are quite 
small.


I usually change mine, over a tray, or box lid. Then if i drop it, it 
doesn't end up on the floor.

Hi all

Whilst we are on the subject of SIM cards, I have a question. I currently 
own an IPhone 8, but am considering ordering a new IPhone SE. So would I 
simply be able to swap my IPhone 8 SIM card directly into my new IPhone when 
it comes? If so, how easy would this be to do for someone with no sight?


Also, when it comes to setting up the new phone when I first get it, how can 
I ensure that voiceover is on from the word go to help me with the set-up??, 
otherwise, frankly, I’m stuffed as I can’t see the screen at all.


Any idiot-proof instructions on both counts really would be greatly 
appreciated.


Many thanks for any help anyone can give.

The following article says the original iPhone SE used a nano SIM card and 
I be very surprised if the second generation SE didn't use a nano SIM as 
well:

The New SE nor the old SE can take memory cards directly.
From what I read, the New SE also uses a different SIM card, but I plan to 
check that out for sure with Apple.
The memory card that I mentioned is with a separate adapter that plugs 
into the lightning port and allows you to use external memory cards.

My 2 cents: If you don't have a good reason for getting 256 gigs of 
storage, save some money and don't do it. I had an iPhone with 256 gigs 
storage and for most of the year I had the phone, I didn't store more than 
50 gigs. I'm sticking to the 128 gig storage phones, unless I suddenly 
come across a huge need for more storage. 128 suits me fine though, since 
about half is taken up with music, books, and apps, and I've got lots of 
storage to go before getting close to filling up my phone.

I’m on the Verizon site now and one caveat I see to buying from there is that 
they say the trade in for my current phone is only $35, whereas Apple will give 
me $80. If Verizon waives the activation fee, which I think a store sales 
person recently told me is $40, that balances out with the savings I would get 
direct from Apple.  Not even sure if I want to trade in this one, or keep it 
for my kids to use like an iTouch. 

I’m a bit nervous on the sim card stuff,  so I’ll call Apple and see what they 
say about activation fees.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.

I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.

They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.

I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

 

It is all down to personal preference.

there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe 
the same is true if I activate via Apple.  Verizon will unlock the phone after 
60 days.  Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, 
even though I didn’t have Apple Care.  So, is there a reason to buy direct from 
Apple or is this just a preference thing?

No your not correct.  See this
In order to mitigate theft and other fraudulent activity, newly purchased 
devices are “locked” to work exclusively on the Verizon network.  We have 
separate device unlocking policies that cover postpay and prepaid devices, as 
well as special rules for deployed military personnel.

“Unlocking” a device refers only to disabling software that would prevent a 
consumer from attempting to activate a device designed for one carrier’s 
network on another carrier’s network. Due to differing technologies, an 
unlocked Verizon Wireless device may not work – or may experience limited 
functionality – on another carrier’s network.

Postpay Device Unlocking Policy
Devices that you purchase from Verizon are locked for 60 days after purchase.   
Devices that you purchase from our retail partners are locked for 60 days after 
activation.  After 60 days, we will automatically remove the lock. Following 
the 60 day lock period, we do not lock our phones at any time. 

Prepaid Device Unlocking Policy
Devices that you purchase from Verizon and certain devices purchased from our 
retail partners are locked for 60 days after activation. After 60 days, we will 
automatically remove the lock. Following the 60 day lock period following 
device purchase, we do not lock our phones at any time.

First of all, Kitty, the new iPhone SE which was just released is the exact 
same size/format of the iPhon e 8 and that is equal to a 4.7 inch screen.

The original iPhone SE which was released in the spring of 2016 had for the 
most part the internals of the iPhone 6S which was released in the fall of 
2015, but it was actually a 4 inch phone like the old iPhone 5 and 5S from 2012 
and 2013.

As for iOS 14, I think it’s entirely possible that the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus and 
the original SE still get this year’s iOS release. After all, the iPhone 5S 
which was released in 2013 with iOS 7 preinstalled got all the upgrades 
including iOS 12 in 2018, only last fall did it not get iOS 13 any more. This 
means after the OS it shipped with it got 5 more iOS updartes, all the way from 
2013 to 2018 or 6 years.

The iPhone 6S/6S Plus and the original SE were all released with iOS 9 
preinstalled and so far they received iOS 10, 11, 12 and 13, that is one 
version less than the 5S.

My wife and I both also have the iPhone 8 and we will definitely not upgrade to 
this new iPhone SE just for the sake of going from 2 Gb to 3 Gb of RAM and from 
the A11 to the A13 processor. In real life you won’t notice that much of a 
difference and anybody who argues that on this new phone apps open faster, the 
app switcher come sup faster and so on should ask themselves how many seconds a 
day they’ll save and whether that is really worth it. Anybody who still has an 
iPhone 6 or even a 5S should probably upgrade, but I want to see what Apple 
comes up with this fall. I really want a phone with Face Id and 5G support, but 
unless there are some other compelling aspects I will probably wait until the 
fall of 2021.

It is not the same size as the old one. 
It is more the size of the standard iPhone 8.
So current cases will not fit it.
 
The old SE is worth $30 in trade.
I plan to use my old one as a music and book player as a WiFi only 
device.

SIM card has nothing to do with iPhone speed. SIM card is for service.

I’m on the Verizon site now and one caveat I see to buying from there is that 
they say the trade in for my current phone is only $35, whereas Apple will give 
me $80. If Verizon waives the activation fee, which I think a store sales 
person recently told me is $40, that balances out with the savings I would get 
direct from Apple.  Not even sure if I want to trade in this one, or keep it 
for my kids to use like an iTouch.
I’m a bit nervous on the sim card stuff,  so I’ll call Apple and see what they 
say about activation fees.

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone 
directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your 
existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.
I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.
They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.
I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

It is all down to personal preference.

Subject: to buy SE 2020 from Verizon or Apple?

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020.  I can pay full price thanks to the 
stimulus check.  I’ve gotten my last two phones from Verizon, but wonder if 
there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe 
the same is true if I activate via Apple.  Verizon will unlock the phone after 
60 days.  Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, 
even though I didn’t have Apple Care.  So, is there a reason to buy direct from 
Apple or is this just a preference thing?

I thought there must be a charge for them. I think that was what the first ten 
dollars on my original SE, and the phone actually was $150, but I always said 
$160, because of that ten dollars going in.

Hi, 
it depends. Some carriers charge $10 for a SIM card plus an activation fee 
which is usually like $40.

Re: Apple Music question?

2020-04-18 Thread Michael Feir
Hi Malcolm. iOS13 has a number of VoiceOver jumping and focus issues to
contend with. This is one of them. The only way to get to most of the
contents in that tab is to use the vertical scroll bar over on the right
side of the screen to move up or down to the verious areas. For instance,
to get at the new rleases heading, I go down to 100 percent, flick over to
the left, and then flick up with the rotor set to headings so I get to the
start of the heading. I can then flick right through the contents.
Sometimes, it's useful to double tap the "see all" button to get into the
full contents of the area you're interested in. It's easy to miss out on
stuff since VoiceOver doesn't behave as it should. Hope things improve in
iOS14. I've pretty much given up on these issues being dealt with sooner
than that. I'd be ecstatic if they fixed the misspellt words rotor
function. Best of luck to you Malcolm.

Apple Music question?

2020-04-18 Thread Malcolm Parfitt
Hello friends,

I hope I find you all well in these anxious times!

Has anyone experienced problems in the For You tab of Apple Music?

I am an Apple Music subscriber and looking through the For You section when I 
double-tap an album nothing appears to happen.  It is not that the album is 
unavailable as if I select other albums and then return to my original choice 
it works as expected.

Another problem is when swiping through albums in the For You tab focus is 
often lost when swiping through albums results in moving to another section 
denoted by moving into another headed section, say Classical to Pop.  You have 
to swipe back and fore several times before you can continue to browse through 
the list.

Re: Zoom meeting invitation - V iPhone Group, Let’s Talk via Zoo m

2020-04-18 Thread Duane Steele
I love Zoom, and have a regular account that I use for all kinds of meetings.  
I missed the meeting too.  Well, I got in for a short time but was told the 
host had not arrived.  The free version only gives us 40 minutes, and the paid 
version when used in conjunction with the Zoom APP is really great, and 
user-friendly with our iPhones.  Please schedule another meeting soon, and 
those of us on the east coast will enter zwe are able.  Also, include phone 
numbers so that people without zoom access in any other way may also join.  
Please schedule one again, soon, and give us adequate time to prepare to join.  
It's a great way to meet and learn things about our devices.
 

Peace & Blessings,
Pastor Duane L. Steele

I am using Brian Hartgen's pro script on windows 10 machine with Jaws 2020. 
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Yeah, I have no idea either.
I’ll check with Xfinity and see what they say.

Richard,

I don't pretend to understand the ins and outs of SIM cards but I thought their 
primary purpose was to hold your carrier account info and settings. I wouldn't 
think that would have much effect on the speed of your device but if you 
replace your original SE's SIM  card in your second generation SE, maybe you 
could report back if you notice a difference between the two SIMs.

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card.
However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.
I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much 
better.
And, the new SE is a Dual SIM phone; as in one physical SIM and one eSIM just 
like the 11 and xs/xr phones if your carrier supports the eSIM.

Perhaps we can pick a topic for each meeting or something.

RE: What SIM Card is used by second generation iPhone SE was RE: Apple Newsroom: iPhone SE: A powerful new smartphone in a popular design

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
Hi,
If when you first power on the new device, you triple tap the home button, 
VoiceOver will come on and you can go through the entire set up without sighted 
assistance.
If the device doesn't have a home button, the side switch will do the same 
thing when triple tapped.

In your case, you are dealing with phones with a home button.  I've done this a 
number of times.
It is a bit strange at first because you may hear a different language, but if 
you double tap there, it usually defaults to English.

I'd call either Apple, or your Carrier, to get help with the SIM card question.
I've not tried doing a SIM card without sighted assistance.

Hi all 

Whilst we are on the subject of SIM cards, I have a question. I currently own 
an IPhone 8, but am considering ordering a new IPhone SE. So would I simply be 
able to swap my IPhone 8 SIM card directly into my new IPhone when it comes? If 
so, how easy would this be to do for someone with no sight? 

Also, when it comes to setting up the new phone when I first get it, how can I 
ensure that voiceover is on from the word go to help me with the set-up??, 
otherwise, frankly, I’m stuffed as I can’t see the screen at all. 

Any idiot-proof instructions on both counts really would be greatly 
appreciated. 

Many thanks for any help anyone can give.

RE: Zoom meeting invitation - V iPhone Group, Let’s Talk via Zoom

2020-04-18 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Marilyn,

It was probably my fault that you could not enter the meeting as I was a bit 
overwhelmed with the number of people joining the meeting; you see, I had to 
manually admit each person to the group in order to prevent a Zoom Bomb.

I think the next time I host a meeting, I will ask someone to be responsible 
for admitting people so I can focus on the conversation.

Hi Gordon and Everyone,

That was great!

Thank you all for joining our meeting.  

I will definitely purchase a subscription so that we can have meetings without 
a 40-minute time limit.  You guys are definitely worth it.

Perhaps we can pick a topic for each meeting or something.

Again, thank you all for calling in.

Hi Kim,
Just so you know, your response came in at the bottom after the prior quoted

You may want to make sure you are editing at the top of the message.

Subject: V iPhone List Members: Let's Talk Via Zoom, in about 40 minutes from 
Now

Hello All, 

I am thinking about purchasing a hosting subscription for the Zoom app.
Before doing so, however, I thought it would be a good idea to test the app, 
and to get to know some of you, better, by hosting a short V iPhone group 
meeting on the platform.

So, in about 40 minutes from now, 2pm, California local time, I will be hosting 
a short 30-minute Zoom meeting.

I will send the meeting invitation to the group in about 20 minutes from now.

I know this is short notice but hope that some of you can join me.

Until Then,

Mark

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone 
directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your 
existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.

I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.

They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.

I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

 

It is all down to personal preference.

Subject: to buy SE 2020 from Verizon or Apple?

 

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020.  I can pay full price thanks to the 
stimulus check.  I’ve gotten my last two phones from Verizon, but wonder if 
there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe 
the same is true if I activate via Apple.  Verizon will unlock the phone after 
60 days.  Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, 
even though I didn’t have Apple Care.  So, is there a reason to buy direct from 
Apple or is this just a preference thing?

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone 
directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your 
existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.
I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.
They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.
I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

It is all down to personal preference.

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020.  I can pay full price thanks to the 
stimulus check.  I’ve gotten my last two phones from Verizon, but wonder if 
there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe 
the same is true if I activate via Apple.  Verizon will unlock the phone after 
60 days.  Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, 
even though I didn’t have Apple Care.  So, is there a reason to buy direct from 
Apple or is this just a preference thing?

Well, depending on how fast you want the phone ..  from Apple deliveries are 
into the 2nd. week of May now.  You can still get things on launch day from 
Verizon.

I have taken phones between AT and Verizon without any issues ..  So, either 
way should work.  Also, right now Verizon isn't charging upgrade or activation 
fees when buying from them ..

No your not correct.  See this
In order to mitigate theft and other fraudulent activity, newly purchased 
devices are “locked” to work exclusively on the Verizon network.  We have 
separate device unlocking policies that cover postpay and prepaid devices, as

“Unlocking” a device refers only to disabling software that would prevent a 
consumer from attempting to activate a device designed for one carrier’s 
network on another carrier’s network. Due to differing technologies, an 
unlocked Verizon Wireless device may not work – or may experience limited 
functionality – on another carrier’s network.

V iPhone List Members: Let's Talk Via Zoom, in about 40 minutes from Now

2020-04-18 Thread M. Taylor
Hello All, 

I am thinking about purchasing a hosting subscription for the Zoom app.
Before doing so, however, I thought it would be a good idea to test the app,
and to get to know some of you, better, by hosting a short V iPhone group
meeting on the platform.

So, in about 40 minutes from now, 2pm, California local time, I will be
hosting a short 30-minute Zoom meeting.

I will send the meeting invitation to the group in about 20 minutes from
now.

I know this is short notice but hope that some of you can join me.

Until Then,

Mark

Subject: RE: Ordered a new SE this morning

 

First of all, Kitty, the new iPhone SE which was just released is the exact 
same size/format of the iPhon e 8 and that is equal to a 4.7 inch screen.

The original iPhone SE which was released in the spring of 2016 had for the 
most part the internals of the iPhone 6S which was released in the fall of 
2015, but it was actually a 4 inch phone like the old iPhone 5 and 5S from 2012 
and 2013.

As for iOS 14, I think it’s entirely possible that the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus and 
the original SE still get this year’s iOS release. After all, the iPhone 5S 
which was released in 2013 with iOS 7 preinstalled got all the upgrades 
including iOS 12 in 2018, only last fall did it not get iOS 13 any more. This 
means after the OS it shipped with it got 5 more iOS updartes, all the way from 
2013 to 2018 or 6 years.

The iPhone 6S/6S Plus and the original SE were all released with iOS 9 
preinstalled and so far they received iOS 10, 11, 12 and 13, that is one 
version less than the 5S.

My wife and I both also have the iPhone 8 and we will definitely not upgrade to 
this new iPhone SE just for the sake of going from 2 Gb to 3 Gb of RAM and from 
the A11 to the A13 processor. In real life you won’t notice that much of a 
difference and anybody who argues that on this new phone apps open faster, the 
app switcher come sup faster and so on should ask themselves how many seconds a 
day they’ll save and whether that is really worth it. Anybody who still has an 
iPhone 6 or even a 5S should probably upgrade, but I want to see what Apple 
comes up with this fall. I really want a phone with Face Id and 5G support, but 
unless there are some other compelling aspects I will probably wait until the 
fall of 2021.

  Subject: Ordered a new SE this morning

   

  Good morning,

   

  With my sighted wife’s help I ordered a new SE, black, 128 Gb, with Apple 
Care  and arranged to trade in my old iphone 8. We were online right at 7 AM 
CDT. It took us 13 minutes from start to finish which I thought was pretty 
good. I think we had to restart the process twice. It is supposed  to be 
delivered next Friday, April 24. I had to pay the full price plus tax and they 
ship me a package with labels so I can send them the iphone 8. When they get 
the 8 they will credit my account $170.00. I didn’t want to try to sell the 
old one locally.

   

  That’s my story, hope you’re all doing well in these strange times.

  Joe

Hi, 
it depends. Some carriers charge $10 for a SIM card plus an activation fee 
which is usually like $40.

RE: Ordered a new SE this morning

2020-04-18 Thread kitty hevener
Thanks, I could not recall or find the size of the original se, the phone I 
currently have.  Since I don’t like the larger phones, I will definitely be 
sticking with what I have as long as I can.  You might recall that I purchased 
an se with more space not that long ago.  It was a mess getting the thing to 
work, but persistence, help from folks on this list, apple accessability desk, 
and geniuses at the apple bar, I succeeded.

Subject: RE: Ordered a new SE this morning

 

First of all, Kitty, the new iPhone SE which was just released is the exact 
same size/format of the iPhon e 8 and that is equal to a 4.7 inch screen.

The original iPhone SE which was released in the spring of 2016 had for the 
most part the internals of the iPhone 6S which was released in the fall of 
2015, but it was actually a 4 inch phone like the old iPhone 5 and 5S from 2012 
and 2013.

As for iOS 14, I think it’s entirely possible that the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus and 
the original SE still get this year’s iOS release. After all, the iPhone 5S 
which was released in 2013 with iOS 7 preinstalled got all the upgrades 
including iOS 12 in 2018, only last fall did it not get iOS 13 any more. This 
means after the OS it shipped with it got 5 more iOS updartes, all the way from 
2013 to 2018 or 6 years.

The iPhone 6S/6S Plus and the original SE were all released with iOS 9 
preinstalled and so far they received iOS 10, 11, 12 and 13, that is one 
version less than the 5S.

My wife and I both also have the iPhone 8 and we will definitely not upgrade to 
this new iPhone SE just for the sake of going from 2 Gb to 3 Gb of RAM and from 
the A11 to the A13 processor. In real life you won’t notice that much of a 
difference and anybody who argues that on this new phone apps open faster, the 
app switcher come sup faster and so on should ask themselves how many seconds a 
day they’ll save and whether that is really worth it. Anybody who still has an 
iPhone 6 or even a 5S should probably upgrade, but I want to see what Apple 
comes up with this fall. I really want a phone with Face Id and 5G support, but 
unless there are some other compelling aspects I will probably wait until the 
fall of 2021.

It is not the same size as the old one. 
It is more the size of the standard iPhone 8.
So current cases will not fit it.
 
The old SE is worth $30 in trade.
I plan to use my old one as a music and book player as a WiFi only device.

According to an earlier post it's not beneficial to use your old SIM card 
because it'll hinder the performance of the new SE model.

 

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card. 
However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.
I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much 
better.

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone 
directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your 
existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.

I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.

They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.

I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

 

It is all down to personal preference.

all,

see evidence that this theory is true. I to reuse my Sim card when I go from 
old phone to new phone and have not experienced any difficulties. I could see 
if the Sim card were 20 years old or something, but these Mannel Sims haven't 
been around that long and to the best of my knowledge I don't think it matters. 
But, if it makes one feel better, and the carrier isn't going to charge you 
anything extra for a new Sim, then why not. matters

I could see how performance is affected if a Sim card is not working properly. 
But... like I said earlier, never had issues using an older Sim card on a new

According to an earlier post it's not beneficial to use your old SIM card 
because it'll hinder the performance of the new SE model.

 

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card. 
However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.
I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be
much better.

According to an earlier post it's not beneficial to use your old SIM card 
because it'll hinder the performance of the new SE model.

 

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card. 
However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.
I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be
much better.

If you are planning to pay full price for a phone why not buy an unlocked phone 
directly from Apple. Then all you have to do when you get it is put your 
existing SIM in it and go through the setup screen and you are done.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.

I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.

They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.

I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

 

It is all down to personal preference.

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020.  I can pay full price thanks to the

there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe

Hi,
This is the first time I have heard this. I have used an older Sim card on my 
newer  iPhone without any issues. Also have helped others setting up new smart 
phones with their previous Sim card without any issues.

RE: “Up date button” in App store

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
In iOS 13 they changed things around.
My first choice for getting to updates is to do a one finger triple tap on the 
App Store icon.  This opens a context menu and you can flick right to updates.
Once there, if it doesn't show updates; which will be most of the way down the 
screen, try a three finger swipe down to refresh the page; then updates may 
appear.

The other way, is to open the App Store, and find the My Account button and 
double tap it.
The My Account doesn't make itself easy to find on the different tabs.  If it 
is there it will be near the upper right.

HTH,

Re: “Up date button” in App store

2020-04-18 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi Kim,

I assume your phone is running iOS 13. If so, triple-tap the App Store icon. a 
menu comes up that includes Update. Double-tap that, and the Update screen will 
open. Near the bottom of the screen, you'll find an Update All button that says 
how many updates there are. Do a three-finger flick down to refresh the screen 
to make sure all the updates are showing.

Best,
Anna

Re: to buy SE 2020 from Verizon or Apple?

2020-04-18 Thread Marie
This is mainly just a personal choice. I tend to buy a simm free phone from 
Apple. For me, the Apple site is easier to navigate and purchase.
when you get the phone, you can go through all the setup without the simm card, 
and when you decide on a carrier (if you do not already have one chosen) you 
can then put in the simm card for the carrier you want or from your previous 
cell phone. From experience, I know if you switch from the old phone, there is 
no activation charge.

I agree.  It also gives you flexibility if you want to leave said carrier.

If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.

I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.

They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously

RE: the poop from Apple about the new SE sim card

2020-04-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Fazil,

If you have a dual SIM phone and one of your providers supports eSIM then yes, 
you could activate service with 1 number from, for example, Telus here in 
Canada using eSIM and then buy a Rogers Nano SIM which would come with a 
different number and use it at the same time.
I don’t have a dual SIM phone, but I assume you could have one ringtone for one 
number and a different ringtone for the other number.
There is of course the question why you would want to do this and pay for 2 
cell plans which would get pretty expensive unless you are employed somewhere 
and your employer pays for one plan, then you could have a single phone for 
both work and private use. I have my own business and while it would be nice to 
have a dedicated business cell number, I think I’d be to cheap to pay for 2 
plans.

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card.
However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.
I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much 
better.
And, the new SE is a Dual SIM phone; as in one physical SIM and one eSIM just 
like the 11 and xs/xr phones if your carrier supports the eSIM.

RE: What happens with old phone when you order a new one?

2020-04-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
All I ever do is take the SIM from my old phone and  put it  in my new phone 
and that is it.
The old phone then still works on WiFi for everything except regular phone 
calls, but as long as you are on WiFi you can still make Facetime calls and so 
on.
If you ever want to sell the old phone just turn off Find my iPhone, sign out 
and then go to Settings > General > Reset and do a full reset. This will erase 
everything and the phone will reboot to the same “Slide to Setup” screen you 
have when you get a brand new phone. I f a blind person buys the phone they can 
at this point press the home button 3 times and Voiceover would start just as 
on a brand-new phone coming out of a box.

As soon as you activate the new phone you will no longer be able to make calls 
from the old phone. You can activate over the phone by calling your provider.

Just not sure what to expect, as I always went to the Apple store on launch day 
and they did whatever there.

Technically yes, if your primary carrier offers eSIM, Electronic SIM cards.  
The eSIM becomes the default, then when traveling you can buy a physical SIM

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card. 

However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.

I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much 
better.

And, the new SE is a Dual SIM phone; as in one physical SIM and one eSIM just 
like the 11 and xs/xr phones if your carrier supports the eSIM.

RE: the poop from Apple about the new SE sim card

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
You probably did the right thing in your case, but if the SIM cards are more 
than a couple years old, you may want to consider requesting a new SIM from 
your carrier according to what Apple told me yesterday about the new SIM cards 
being faster and improving performance.
This is out of my league, so just passing on information.  Check with Apple to 
confirm and/or your carrier.

RE: to buy SE 2020 from Verizon or Apple?

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
If you are in the habit of buying Apple Care, it is $79.00 from Apple, or if 
you want Apple Care plus theft protection $149.00.
I’ve always purchased direct from Apple until my last phone when I had to buy 
from the carrier, Xfinity, because that was before they offered the program 
where you could bring a phone to them and get it set up with their service.
They didn’t offer Apple Care;; but their own warranty which was ridiculously 
expensive.
I went with Apple this time and since Xfinity wasn’t listed as one of the 
carriers they work with, I bought the no SIM model.

It is all down to personal preference.

I’m ready to preorder the new SE 2020.  I can pay full price thanks to the 
stimulus check.  I’ve gotten my last two phones from Verizon, but wonder if 
there is a perk to buying from Apple directly.  The price appears the same.  
Verizon’s website says they’ll waive the activation fee if I buy online; maybe 
the same is true if I activate via Apple.  Verizon will unlock the phone after 
60 days.  Apple has helped me in the past when I locked myself out of my phone, 
even though I didn’t have Apple Care.  So, is there a reason to buy direct from 
Apple or is this just a preference thing?

Subject: the poop from Apple about the new SE sim card

 

Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card. 

However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.

I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much 
better.

And, the new SE is a Dual SIM phone; as in one physical SIM and one eSIM just 
like the 11 and xs/xr phones if your carrier supports the eSIM.

Unless it has changed the lightening to usb adapter isn’t going to work from a

There is not enough power output from the phone to power a USB flash drive.

It’s my understanding that when you order a new phone you automatically get a 
new Sim card.
Is that correct

The online process was very easy.

I tried calling first because I wanted to add one other accessory, and after 
sitting on hold for 20 minutes, I did the online method in about 4 minutes.

I’ll get the extra accessory later.

The New SE nor the old SE can take memory cards directly.
From what I read, the New SE also uses a different SIM card, but I plan to 

check that out for sure with Apple.
The memory card that I mentioned is with a separate adapter that plugs into 
the lightning port and allows you to use external memory cards.

My 2 cents: If you don't have a good reason for getting 256 gigs of storage, 
save some money and don't do it. I had an iPhone with 256 gigs storage and 
for most of the year I had the phone, I didn't store more than 50 gigs. I'm 
sticking to the 128 gig storage phones, unless I suddenly come across a huge 
need for more storage. 128 suits me fine though, since about half is taken 
up with music, books, and apps, and I've got lots of storage to go before 
getting close to filling up my phone.

the poop from Apple about the new SE sim card

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
Technically, the SE first generation and second generation take the same size 
SIM card.
However, the new SIM cards are much faster, so Apple recommends getting a new 
SIM card with the new phone.
I was told by an Apple staff person that I could set up the new phone with the 
old SE SIM, but should then get a new SIM card as the performance will be much 
better.
And, the new SE is a Dual SIM phone; as in one physical SIM and one eSIM just 
like the 11 and xs/xr phones if your carrier supports the eSIM.

Re: Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter

2020-04-18 Thread Richard Turner
To be clear, I hope, the adapter will work on any device running iOS 13 for 
thumb drives, IE, memory sticks, the little ones you can carry in a pocket ... 
and it will work with the larger external flash drives if the flash drive is 
independently powered.
I am only interested in the little thumb drives so not the external flash 
drives like you would use to back up a computers hard drive.
I got the clarification from Apple.
Since I do not have an external hard/flash drive that has its own power source, 
and only plan to use the smaller thumb drives, this will work for me.
Thanks,


Richard
