Re: A Solution for VoiceOver's Having way TOOOOOOOO Much Punctuation

['cwc' via VIPhone]

I had to do a total restore, then, when I did, the problem still existed. I 
went back to reset and reset all settings. then it was fixed. 
unfortunately, I had to restore all of my settings. I am still finding 
settings that I forgot about.

Spotify and Pandora are free apps that are downloaded from the app store.  Both 
allow the end user to type the name of a genre, artist, or song. Spotify also 
has playlists created by staff and end users on every musical theme and

Re: Question about Instant Pot and iPhone

[Jenny Bomareto]

That’s the exact reason why Matt did not get an Insta pot that can be 
controlled through the echo or Alexa or stuff like that. That’s why he got the 
Insta pot duo Evo 7+ the 8 quart and it has all buttons on it and the dial. And 
yes you can use it with no difficulty just put braille on the buttons do you 
like or for rice beef or bake so on and so forth and

 you can use Be My Eyes as you know it’s awesome to have this new technology of 
today. Thanks for your prompt attention!

 Good morning,
 
 I hope this is a good list to ask this question.
 A few years ago, I got one of the first Smart Instant Pots that hooked up
 to the iPhone via Bluetooth. It worked well, and while I could use it to
 some extent with just the buttons, I found that being able to use it with
 my phone really helped and made it easier to take advantage of its
 capabilities.
 Since I upgraded to my iPhone 12, I found that my Instant Pot doesn’t
 connect to my phone. I thought I had to re-pair it via the app, and when
 I tried going that direction, either my phone or the Instant Pot didn’t
 seem to recognize one another. If there is some recognition, it is only
 for an instant, and then it goes away and I can’t use the Instant Pot
 with the phone.
 I’m wondering what you think could be wrong, or if I should get one of
 the newer ones.
 I like being able to use it and set the temperatures with ease without
 having to memorize and count and do all of those extra things.
 This is still in good condition, except for the Bluetooth capabilities.
 What are people using now? What do you guys think about the newer Smart
 Instant Pots? How accessible are they? Are they worth it?
 I’d like to read your thoughts before I make any decisions.
 Jim

Your plan was my plan, as well. Then, my IPhone developed a problem. I
cannot reply to text messages that are sent to me. When I called
Apple, the only thing the tech expert could suggest was updating my
phone to the next upgrade (14.5). Reluctantly, that's what I did. Now
I cannot use my Instant Pot, nor is the messages problem fixed...

It is not a good week!

I use my IP several times a week.  I rely on it very much.  for this reason, I 
stopped updating my phone, and will keep it at IOS 14.4 for as long as the

  Yes, they are just packing material.

  I would save them in the original box in case you have to ship the Airpods 
Max back for some reason.

   

  Notice, the reason they sound so tinny is that you are blocking the speaker 
with the solid plastic back of those protective covers.

  And, they are lose, not going to give you the noise cancelation you get with 
the foam pads, which are extremely comfortable and amazingly good sound 
blockers.

  Hello all:

  I believe that the hard plastic shells referenced in the original message are 
just packing materials that are meant to protect the ear pads during shipping. 
They should be removed and discarded. Thus, the proper Airpods Max setup 
consists of the aluminum earcups to which the ear pads are attached; nothing 
additional goes over the ear pads. In other words, when wearing the headphones, 
the soft foam of the ear cushions should be in contact with your head. I hope 
that this clarifies the situation.

  On each ear piece is a soft foam material and a hard plastic shell.  Both the 
foam and the shell are detachable.  My question is, is the hard plastic shell

But, again, if you receive an email from this group, in Windows mail, and hit 
your reply to all, it is going to come to the list; even if it also goes to the 
individual.
Try it and see if that is true.
Maybe Windows Mail is very unique...

you send something to this list, control + r sends to the group address that

RE: scanning apps

[Richard Turner]

It claims to.
But again, I would never recommend using an app for a book, at least not 
currently, and KNFB Reader in particular as it has many issues since version 3 
was released.
I’ve not kept up with it since other apps perform better even though they do 
not have column recognition as yet.

And, unless someone has it already, it ain’t worth $100.

If Openbook, then the Pearl camera and Openbook will give better results than 
any app on an iPhone at this time.
With Openbook, you can have it separate the facing pages, so you can scan two 
pages at once and have them treated as two pages.
Plus, Openbook can deal with columns, where no scanning app can as yet.

I’m not sure Winston is going to implement column recognition any time soon, if 
ever.

SuperSense is working on column recognition, which would help in separating 
facing pages, but I would not try scanning a book with an iPhone or Android 
device without a good stand so you don’t have to continually raise the phone to 
the perfect spot each time….

if you have trouble holding the phone over a document, no app is going to give 
great resullts. I do not like KNFB Reader. You may want to consider getting a 
scanning stand. I love Voice Dream Scanner, but its way of letting you know if 
you have text in view is a tone that plays. The louder the tone, the more text. 
If you have it on auto-capture, once you are steady at the loudest tone for 2 
or 3 seconds, it will take the picture.
You want to be 10 to 12 inches above a full 8.5 by 11 document to get the best 
results.
Supersense, tells you in words to move farther away, or 1 inch to the left, 
etc. Supersense has a free trial, and if you are convinced by it, right now it 
is haf price for a lifetime subscription for $49.99. Or there are monthly or 
yearly plans.
Voice Dream Scanner on the other hand, is $5.99 one time purchase.
They both have great points about them and Supersense is designed to deal with 
more objects than just text.
You could also use the free Seeing AI app to scan a single page.
Good luck.

airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep 
space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was 
young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"

Here’s where I think the confusion is: With Windows mail, control + R goes to the sender only, and control +shift plus R goes to all in the group.

Re: Music on my iPhone.

[Kelly Pierce]

Spotify and Pandora are free apps that are downloaded from the app
store.  Both allow the end user to type the name of a genre, artist,
or song. Spotify also has playlists created by staff and end users on
every musical theme and lifestyle imaginable.

Re: Question about Instant Pot and iPhone

[Penny Reeder]

Very unfortunately, the BlueTooth accessible InstantPot app is not accessible 
with the latest update to the Iphone, IoS 14.5. The company that makes the 
InstantPot reportedly says they have no plan to repair or update the BlueTooth 
app. They now make a WiFi model that has a somewhat accessible app that also 
connects through the Amazon.com Echo (Alexa). I don’t know what i am going to 
do about this. I resent having to buy a new IP, since the one i have  still 
works with the buttons, but i, too, always enjoyed the level of control and  
and information i had with my phone. I am thinking about labeling the buttons 
with braille and trying to control it with the buttons but i won’t have nearly 
as much confidence, especially about setting the time.  Penny

Re: Question about Instant Pot and iPhone

[Mary Otten]

Hi Jim,
I found that when I upgraded to one of the iOS 14 versions, which I now don’t 
remember if it was four or five, my Bluetooth app quit working. It would not 
open. And that has not changed. The app is no longer in the App Store. If I try 
to open the app, I get a notice on my iPhone saying that the developer needs to 
update the app. But it’s no longer in the store and is not being supported. 
Therefore, you should not look forward to being able to use your Bluetooth app 
anymore at least in my experience. Somebody said there’s was still working, but 
I don’t remember if it was on this list or somewhere else, and I have to think 
it’s a fluke. But I can’t explain it.

RE: scanning apps

[Richard Turner]

Which scanning application is she using?
If Openbook, then the Pearl camera and Openbook will give better results than 
any app on an iPhone at this time.
With Openbook, you can have it separate the facing pages, so you can scan two 
pages at once and have them treated as two pages.
Plus, Openbook can deal with columns, where no scanning app can as yet.

I’m not sure Winston is going to implement column recognition any time soon, if 
ever.

SuperSense is working on column recognition, which would help in separating 
facing pages, but I would not try scanning a book with an iPhone or Android 
device without a good stand so you don’t have to continually raise the phone to 
the perfect spot each time….

you have text in view is a tone that plays. The louder the tone, the more text. 
If you have it on auto-capture, once you are steady at the loudest tone for 2 
or 3 seconds, it will take the picture.
You want to be 10 to 12 inches above a full 8.5 by 11 document to get the best 
results.
Supersense, tells you in words to move farther away, or 1 inch to the left, 
etc. Supersense has a free trial, and if you are convinced by it, right now it 
is haf price for a lifetime subscription for $49.99. Or there are monthly or 
yearly plans.
Voice Dream Scanner on the other hand, is $5.99 one time purchase.
They both have great points about them and Supersense is designed to deal with 
more objects than just text.
You could also use the free Seeing AI app to scan a single page.
Good luck.

Question about Instant Pot and iPhone

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning,

 

I hope this is a good list to ask this question.

A few years ago, I got one of the first Smart Instant Pots that hooked up to
the iPhone via Bluetooth. It worked well, and while I could use it to some
extent with just the buttons, I found that being able to use it with my
phone really helped and made it easier to take advantage of its
capabilities.

Since I upgraded to my iPhone 12, I found that my Instant Pot doesn't
connect to my phone. I thought I had to re-pair it via the app, and when I
tried going that direction, either my phone or the Instant Pot didn't seem
to recognize one another. If there is some recognition, it is only for an
instant, and then it goes away and I can't use the Instant Pot with the
phone.

I'm wondering what you think could be wrong, or if I should get one of the
newer ones.

I like being able to use it and set the temperatures with ease without
having to memorize and count and do all of those extra things.

This is still in good condition, except for the Bluetooth capabilities.

What are people using now? What do you guys think about the newer Smart
Instant Pots? How accessible are they? Are they worth it?

I'd like to read your thoughts before I make any decisions.

Jim

RE: Regarding sending e-mails, and replying to e-mails.

[Richard Turner]

First, yes, you got the group address correct.
Everyone sees the message because when you hit reply, it is replying to the 
group, because you received the message from the group; not from an individual.
That is why groups that use a different list service have a reply to sender 
option at the bottom of the messages to make it easier to reply off list to 
someone directly; but those services may have a cost; I'm not sure.

If you can get into the From section of the email you wish to reply to a person 
from; you can copy their direct email list from there and replace the group 
address in the to field.
I hope that makes sense.

RE: Air Pods max Question

[Richard Turner]

Yes, they are just packing material.
I would save them in the original box in case you have to ship the Airpods Max 
back for some reason.

Notice, the reason they sound so tinny is that you are blocking the speaker 
with the solid plastic back of those protective covers.
And, they are lose, not going to give you the noise cancelation you get with 
the foam pads, which are extremely comfortable and amazingly good sound 
blockers.

Hello all:
I believe that the hard plastic shells referenced in the original message are 
just packing materials that are meant to protect the ear pads during shipping. 
They should be removed and discarded. Thus, the proper Airpods Max setup 
consists of the aluminum earcups to which the ear pads are attached; nothing 
additional goes over the ear pads. In other words, when wearing the headphones, 
the soft foam of the ear cushions should be in contact with your head. I hope 
that this clarifies the situation.

I am not laughing. And yes I think that wearing the airpods max without the 
padded ear  piece would be very uncomfortable. So, they are meant to be worn 
with the padded ear pieces.

I have what is probably a dumb question, but i'll ask it because otherwise i

On each ear piece is a soft foam material and a hard plastic shell.  Both the 
foam and the shell are detachable.  My question is, is the hard plastic shell 
meant to be worn?  I ask because when I wear the headset with the hard plastic 
shell attached. the audio has a tinny quality and my ears really start to hurt 
within 30 minutes or so.  So i am wondering if this hard plastic shell is meant 
to be worn, or just to be used when the headset is stored.  If you want to

Hi Karen & Timothy,

These steps work for both the older SE 2016 & the newer SE 2020 iPhones:
1. Open Settings /  Accessibility / Voiceover, or tell Siri to open Voiceover 
settings.

2. Swipe to, Audio button, and do a single finger double tap to open.

3. Swipe to, Audio select speaker in call, and if this is, Off, do a single 
finger double tap to turn it on.
Description :  During audio calls automatically switch to the speaker when not 
holding the iPhone to your ear.


Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

I would be interested in this, as well.  I have the older SE, and remember

I have an iPhone SE 2020 and can make phone calls fine. When a phone call comes 
in it always puts the phone call on speaker phone and it will not shut off when 
I put the iPhone to my ear. Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change?

Hello everyone,
For the last few days, I’ve been experiencing a problem whenever I try to 
upload a video to Instagram using Backpack Studio. Sometimes the app crashes, 
at other times, it is just impossible to upload the video because the progress

impossible.  I don’t know what is happening, but the kind of the same thing 
happens with Bossjock JR.

Is someone else having this problem?
