Re: Listening to Pro Football on iPad

[Alan Paganelli]

The problem with the NFL is they aren’t giving anything away for free if you 
want to listen to NFL football you need to buy the entire package it isn’t 
cheap and it isn’t fair  The NFL package was you get to watch the games on TV 
which does me no good being totally like you also get coaches watches which is 
also useless the only part of the package at a useful for me is the radio 
broadcast where you hear the announcers describe the games you used to be able 
to get that one alone for 40 bucks for the entire season but now they want you 
to pay for the whole package which is $99.99  I am not paying them 100 bucks 
just to listen to Chicago bears lose again or any other team for that matter it 
isn’t worth 100 bucks for a blind man  The best thing the end FL can do is to 
fire Roger get Dale he is the one who started this where everything has to cost 
money

Re: A roomba 980 app question:

[Alan Paganelli]

Hello again Friends.

I have to say that my iRoomba does a fantastic job on short pile carpets.  I 
still haven't found the button that makes the little guy return to base.  Never 
the less, two hours cleaning time is more then enough time to clean the floors. 
 To bad the little guy doesn't have a telescoping arm to do the dusting too.  
Has anybody contacted the maker of these products to see about accessible 
manuals?

Re: A roomba 980 app question:

[Alan Paganelli]

I'm not sure I have the same model as you do.  Mine is the model just under the 
model with WI-FI.  My wife bought this gagit for me because at almost 69 years 
old I was finding pushing a vacuum a bit hard.  My wife pressed a few buttons 
for me to make the little guy return to base when he gets low on power or the 
job is complete.  Never the less, both her and I are amazed at how good of a 
job the little guy does on hard kitchen floors and short nap carpeting.  I did 
also find out that the 2 sensors that the unit comes with needs to be switched 
off when not in use.  The 2 double A batteries get ran down if the sensor 
switch is left in the up setting.  So from now on, they get turned off when not 
in use.  All that aside, I would not hesitate to recomend this vacuum cleaner 
to anybody who cannot push around a conventional unit around.

Re: Ibooks

[Alan Paganelli]

Flick 2 fingers down.  You'll hear a sound every time the page automatically 
changes.  If I remember right, a 3 finger single tap will pause the reading.  
Repeats the gesture to continue.  It's been awhile so if I got any of these 
wrong, I'd be happy to be set straight too.

Re: Old time radio app

[Alan Paganelli]

A search in the App Store for old time radio will get you quite a few OTR apps. 
 Way back in the 60's when I collected OTR on reel to reel tapes, One show that 
I really liked was Adventures By Morris.  I was able to find the complete 
series along with the Lone Ranger X Minus 1 and more.  So, it appears that 
there are several really good apps for OTR.  Some let you stream the show or 
download it.  Sense I was connected to WI-FI I just listened to the episodes.  
Somebody has spent a lot of time cleaning up many of the shows.  Also they have 
included notes about the date the show was aired and how long the searies ran.  
Even a couple of years back when I searched the App Store for old time radio, 
there weren't that many choices like there is today.

Re: Old time radio app

A search in the App Store on my 5s the very first one says old time radio 
streamer.  There seems to be quite a few but I didn't see tune in radio.  That

Re: Old time radio app

[Alan Paganelli]

Mary, as far as I know the app is free.  Also the ACB has their treasure trove 
which has OTR as well.

On my 5s, the tune in app shows up as just yesterday.  I would guess though 
that if you search the App Store for old time radio you may find even more.  I 
don't listen to as much OTR as I once did but I'v been listening to OTR sense 
before 1976.

Re: Botvac discussion, how about other connected major appliances like washers and dryers

[Alan Paganelli]

I know they don't even make the kind of gas stove I have.  The stove was here 
as a part of the house in 1986.  I love cooking on it and as far as I'm 
concerned, the microwave is good for reheating and any more not even that sense 
we got a counter top cook oven.  It's great for reheating pizza, already cooked 
left over hamburgers etc.

Re: Botvac discussion, how about other connected major appliances like washers and dryers

[Alan Paganelli]

have an old gas stove with 4 burners and a gas oven.  I'm a self taught cook.  
I'm careful but I get the job done.  I also cook outside on our 5 burner gas 
grill.  I set the burners on the grill to as low as I can make it.  Yes, it may 
take me a little longer however, I've never had any complaints yet about my 
cooking.

Re: Old time radio app

[Alan Paganelli]

Another good OTR Old Time Radio app is Tune in Yesterday.  They have the red 
network and the blue network.  These referred  to the section of the USA where 
the radio shows appeared.  Some shows were national and on both feeds.  I would 
guess that a search in the iTunes Store would turn up more and searching the 
App Store should turn up other OTR apps.  I personally like tune in yesterday.

At one time I collected OTR on reel to reel tape And one day I decided I was 
slowly getting moved out of my apartment and tried to sell the tapes.  I had 
hundreds of 1800 foot tapes with 36 shows on 4 tracks.  When I tried to sell 
them and then tried giving them away to the public library, nobody wanted them. 
 This was before digital came along.  When I listen to some OTR some of the 
shows came from me.  I had a friend who owned the original transcription disks 
which today are priceless.  If you've never listened to old time radio, you may 
be in for a very good time!

Re: Looking for an outdoor thermometer and accesible app combo

[Alan Paganelli]

Blind Mice Mart sells an indoor out door thermometer.  The unit talks giving 
you the time and temperature both indoor and outdoor at the top of the hour or 
on demand.  The outdoor sensor requires 2 triple A batteries and the base 
station requires 2 double A batteries.  I don't remember what I paid for the 
talking clock but it wasn't all that expensive and Blind Mice Mart has all the 
info.  It can be set to read temperatures in either popular format your choice 
at the flick of a switch.

Re: Really need major help with 5S

[Alan Paganelli]

Go to,

Settings, Sounds, Change with buttons.  Here you can turn this feature off or 
on.  To avoid sound volume problems just turn this setting off.  When I turned 
this setting off, I never had the sound setting volume problem again.  The 
volume up and down buttons on the left side of the iPhone controls all.  The 
same is true on iPads as well.

Re: Siri

[Alan Paganelli]

I use Siri to post a message on my facebook time line when I don't need to open 
FB.  I just say to Siri, post to facebook.  She'll ask me what I want to say on 
my time line.  I'll dictate the text of what I want to say including saying 
period at the end of a sentense and use the voice enflection to indicate the 
end of the sentence.  To many people just dictate with out using voice 
enflection and saying period or coma where needed.  With a bit of practice, you 
be a pro at it in no time.

Re: Siri

As I understand it, in iOS 10, Siri gets greatly improved and you should be 
able to talk to her just like talking to a neighbor or friend.  Personally, I'm 
just waiting to see that for myself.  I do know this though.  Sooner or later 
it will happen.

Your user name is your email address and only you know what password you used 
to create your account.  And of course,, you have to be approved to access the 
NLS content.

I can access BARD constant from my Windows computer where I can download books 
and then copy them to my stream 1 or directly from my stream II.  My favorite 
way though is via my iPad Air because it's speaker has better sound then my 
iPhone 5S.

Re: RE:

If you leave the focus on the clock app, it will announce the time every 
minute.  Of course if you take focus away then it won't announce the time every 
minute.  However, it is useful for taking your pulse or any other use which 
requires a minute announcement and, it's already there on your iDevice.

Re: RE:

[Alan Paganelli]

There was an app called clock chimes.  You could select clock chimes and it 
gave you 3 choices of clocks or you could select announce only and you could 
set it to announce the time every 15 minutes, every 30 minutes, or the top of 
the hour.  The problem is, I've had the app so long, I don't remember who makes 
it.  I suspect though Todd Burnhard wrote the app.  It's totally accessible.  
If you chose one of the chime sounds, they are very good samples.

Re: Itunes

[Alan Paganelli]

You have to use iTunes but yes you can rip your CD collection.  I have only 
about 60 or 70 CDs but I ripped them all using iTunes quite some time ago and 
only consider my CDs as backup copies sense I bought and paid for the disks.  
When I want to get new music I just get it through iTunes even on my iPhone and 
get them downloaded directly to my iPhone.  Then the next time I sync with 
iTunes, they get added to my library.

Re: accessible games for iphone

[Alan Paganelli]

And of course, Rich has his own app called Destino Games.  Of which Run for 
President is my favorite.  For some reason or other that game cracked me up.  
And, if I looked through my old floppy disks, I might even find my dos copy of 
his games.

Re: Pairing Plantronics edge with watch

[Alan Paganelli]

I kept getting a message saying my iWatch was paired with another device.  At 
first, I thought it may be trying to connect to my wife's iPhone but that 
couldn't be the case because she still has her iPhone 4.  I then selected the 
Mickey Mouse face because I didn't want to hear seconds count.  I could connect 
my iPhone 5s and I could get my phone to go through my Voyager Legend but not 
my iWatch.  I kept getting that message that my iWatch was connected to another 
device.  I couldn't find any other devices in the Bluetooth app.  My wife 
suggested I let my iWatch go totally dead.  I thought that was completely nuts. 
 On the other hand, I knew it could be done as she told me one of the doctors 
at work had his iWatch and iPhone connected to his ear peace so I figured I 
already had nothing to lose so I let my watch go down to 0 percent.  I then let 
both my iPhone and watch charge over night.  The next morning, my iWatch 
connected perfectly ok.  The only thing I can figure out is the two were 
actually in range.  So now that I have my iPhone 5s and iWatch both running 
through my Plantronics Legend the way I want it, I'm not messing with it again. 
LOL!

Re: bluetooth headset recommendations

[Alan Paganelli]

The Plantronics Bluetooth Legend can also connect to 2 devices at the same 
time.  My iPhone 5s and my iWatch are both connected to my legend.
There is no lag time between either device.

Yes, please do let us know if the phone comes to life.  My guess is that it

Re: Facebook artificial intelligence for photos

I was so looking forward to this new feature but alas, I couldn't get it to

Re: iphone se

[Alan Paganelli]

think I'll just wait until October when the iPhone 7 will come out and see what 
that brings.  The SE seems like a nice 4 inch phone but it doesn't make me want 
to go running out to buy one so we'll see what the iPhone 7 has.

As for the finger print reader, like I said to my wife.  So all they need to do 
is to knock you over the head, and wile your laying there, they just grab your 
hand and stick your index finger or thumb on the sensor and their in.So we'll 
see how it all plays out until the October models come out.

Re: Trekker Breeze units

[Alan Paganelli]

What about the Victor Reader Stream?  If you are asking about the Stream 1, I 
don't know if HumanWare is still supporting it with updates.  As for the Stream 
2 with WI-FI, I think they missed the boat by not adding Bluetooth as well 
however, the stream 2 has been out for some time and Bluetooth usage was not as 
popular as it is today.  I do enjoy listening to an NLS Talking Book on my 
iPhone 5s and being able to go sit outside on my swing and listen to a book.  I 
can even play/pause my book.  When technology marches on, all to often the 
previous model goes by the wayside.
 I still like my Trekker Breeze but it's also nice to have some sort of GPS app 
on my iPhone just in case.

Everybody have a great day!

Re: Accessible thermostat?

[Alan Paganelli]

 Try Talking Thermostats dot com.  I have owned one of their thermostats for 
over ten years.  The instructions for it's use are written for the blind and 
even tells you how to use it.  All settings are clearly announced so there is 
no guess work.  I have heard that they now have a model you can view on an 
iPhone although I have never gone to their web page to check it out.  I'm just 
tossing it out as possibly another option.

Re: Jim Kitchen games for Windows

I know it probably won't ever happen but I for one would like to see an iOS

Re: First time trying bluetooth ear piece with Apple Watch

[Alan Paganelli]

I like how if I'm running an NLS talking book through my iPhone and if I double 
tap my iWatch to get the time or to look at the outside temperature the talking 
book is paused.  Granted, it may only be for a second or 2 but it's a nice 
feature.  I just wonder what new things we'll get with the next upgrade of the 
watch software.

Re: First time trying bluetooth ear piece with Apple Watch

[Alan Paganelli]

I have both my Plantronics Legend and my iWatch paired to my iPhone 5s.  I 
never thought of parting my iWatch and running my iPhone and iWatch through my 
Plantronics Legend.  My wife mentioned that one of the doctors at work has both 
an iPhone and an iWatch and runs both through the ear peace for privacy so I 
figured I'd give it a shot myself.  The big advantage is I can hear my iPhone 
or my iWatch with out bothering other people around me.

Re: Unacceptable Response from Issuu Support Team Regarding VoiceOver Accessibility

[Alan Paganelli]

I went through this with iPhone Life.  They were very nice folks who took the 
time to explain to me that the reason why they use PDF is so the magazine in 
PDF format looks exactly like the print magazine.  PDF is actually a picture of 
the document and no screen reader can read a picture to you.

Re: TapTapSee

[Alan Paganelli]

As I understand it, it's real people telling you what is seen in the picture 
you send when you take that picture.  I think it's important to remember that 
everybody and their sister was taking picture after picture just playing with 
the app rather then really needing to.  I include myself in that because tap 
tap see was the first app I had ever come across that could tell you what it 
sees.  Sense then, several other wanna-be apps came out but none was as good as 
Tap tap see so I guess we'll see how long it lasts so let's not go off the deep 
end again folks or the app might disappear.

Re: Why do we want to use a physical keyboard?

[Alan Paganelli]

Rose, I'm with you.  I have been using computers sense the days of Dos.  Before 
that, I learned to type in grade school and I don't 'wanna tell ya how long ago 
that was!  I like dictation on my iPhone 5s, and it works great for text 
messages, short notes, and from time to time, a personal log entry.  What I'm 
saying here is, my first choice is to type it.  A keyboard case gives me all 
the options I need.

Re: Why do we want to use a physical keyboard?

[Alan Paganelli]

gain I point out the keyboard case.  For example, it holds my iPad in a holder 
which looks like a laptop.  The typing keys are where you would expect them to 
be.  The typing keys are Bluetooth.  That's how they get to the iPad.  The case 
can close like a laptop or it can lay with the iPad back on top of the typing 
keys.  In this configuration, if you open an app such as email, the typing keys 
would appear on screen.  So, in this case, you can have it all.  Phisical keys 
or virtual.  They have keyboard cases for all iPhones or iPads.

Re: Question about iPhone 5s

[Alan Paganelli]

I have had my 5s now over 2 years now.  It has the maximum amount of storage 
and the finger print scanner.  I think maybe twice in all that time I had a 
problem with the scanner.  I went and washed my hands with soap and water, and 
fully dried my hands.  The finger print scanner read my finger print with no 
problem.

Re: Question about iPhone 5s

[Alan Paganelli]

I think too that there are going to be far more 16 GB phones on the market then 
64 gigs.  The cheapest isn't always the best choice.  For me, storage is more 
important because, I want to keep my music collection stored on my phone not in 
the cloud.  Why?  If you haven't got a connection, you haven't got any music!  
And at going on 68 years old, I'm stuck in my ways! LOL!

Re: Question about iPhone 5s

[Alan Paganelli]

The larger size hard drive you have, the more your 5S is worth. If you stick 
with the low-end bottom of the line phone you won't get as much as you usually 
would because everybody seems to want to cheapest phone possible not the best 
phone possible.

Converting an Audio Book

[Alan Paganelli]

Hi All,

I have a couple of audio books in MP3 format that I would like to put on my 
iPad Air.  I'm afraid if I just drop them my automatically add to iTunes folder 
that the books will wind up just silly Billy in my music folder.  Is there a 
way I can tell iTunes, hey look, these MP3 files have to stay in order because 
they are an audio book.  What's the best way to do what I want?  I don't want 
to have to spend $40 for an audio book I already own just to get my book on my 
iPhone or my iPad.  Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Re: New post published iPhone 7 with no headphone jack at all?

[Alan Paganelli]

With Bluetooth ear peaces and head phones becoming more and more the thing, 
tying yourself to a phisical cord is going to be a thing of the past.  I 
suppose Bluetooth transmitters with a 3.5 Mm jack would be possible and there 
may already be such animals already out there but in general, I think you can 
take it to the bank that the 3.5 Mm Jack soon will be a thing of the past.

Re: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

[Alan Paganelli]

Ok, if my 5s is locked, I still need to press the power button but that's a 
quick press.  When the phone opens then I need to touch the sensor to unlock my 
phone.  Alternitivly I can use the on screen key pad to type in my 4 character 
pass word but why bother.  Now if my finger is sticky or dirty, the finger 
print reader might not work in which case I then just manually type my 4 digit 
code in.  Does that help any?

Re: Interesting observation re my problems with fingerprint recognition

[Alan Paganelli]

I'm not quite sure I understand what your doing.  All I need to do on my 5s 
when my phone is turned on is to place my index finger on the home button.  No 
pressing it, no moving my finger around.  I just hold my finger on the sensor 
and it only takes a second or so to read it.  My index finger is usually clean. 
 I know some people are eating snack food and such and get poor results with 
the finger print sensor.  I figure if they can't figure it out for them selves 
that that's probably not a good idea then maybe an iPhone isn't for them.  
Rarely do I have a problem opening my 5s and when I do, it's usually because my 
finger is not clean.

Re: a more functional BT keyboard

[Alan Paganelli]

That was one of the features I really like.  And if you ever need it, there is 
the reset button there too.

Re: a more functional BT keyboard

[Alan Paganelli]

I caught my Amazon Basics Bluetooth wireless keyboard on special for $19.99 and 
free shipping.  I bought a really nice cloth  case for it for 20 bucks.  The 
outside is a soft can us and the inside is even softer material.  The case has 
room for a couple of triple (A) batteries which seem to last quite a long time. 
 The keyboard with it's soft case fits nicely in a back pack for taking it with 
you.

Re: iphone 6s fingerprint reader

[Alan Paganelli]

When I got my 5s, the guy at the A T and T store told me that for the best 
results, wash your hands first with soap and water.  So I did that and it 
worked just fine.  From time to time I may have a problem with the sensor not 
reading my finger print and I get a try again message.  If it fails the second 
time, I know the tries are limited so I'll go wash my hands and all will work 
again.  Hope this suggestion works for you too!

Re: Amazon Basics keyboard double letters

[Alan Paganelli]

You can easily stop the doubling of key strokes with the Amazon Basics 
Bluetooth keyboard keys.

1. Open Settings.
2 Open General.
3. Go to accessibility.
4. Open Keyboards. and Turn off key repeat.

Sense I did that, I haven't had any problem with my Amazon Basics Bluetooth 
Wireless Keyboard.

HTH.

Re: New 5S

[Alan Paganelli]

The iPhone 7 probably won't come out until October.  Apple is just keeping up 
with the Joneses.  Amazon is doing twice a year on new phones or so I've heard. 
 Personally, I'm an iPhone man and couldn't care less about Android phones.  In 
my mind, their just a wanna be. LOL!

I have the latest version of iOS and all it's updates and the NFL app now

Re: I was able to listen to an archived audio feed in the NFL Mobile app.

[Alan Paganelli]

Apparently they updated the NFL app.  If I remember right, it was the December 
30ith update of the NFL app that caused all the trouble.  The present NFL app 
was updated this month.  You can view week 1, week 2, week 3 etc and select 
your team and the game for that week which I'm happy to say now let's you hear 
the game from either point of view..

Re: Apple watch

[Alan Paganelli]

I have learned about my iWatch that I don't have to keep pulling it out of my 
pocket.  Replying to text messages can be a snap.  Flick through preset replies 
such as sure or on my way and more.  You can also create your own quick replies 
such as can you pickup a gallon of milk on your way home.  Email is just as 
easy.  They keep adding new iWatch apps all the time too.

Re: Another Bluetooth question...

[Alan Paganelli]

Rose, I know you feel!  I too suffer from CRS.  There was once a time when I 
would have thought nothing of working and figuring how technology works but 
sense CRS set in, I struggle.  Example, my Apple Watch.  I did stumble across 
this though.  I have the watch face Mickey Mouse on my iWatch.  I accidently 
discovered that you can change what's on each corner.  Sense Las Vegas and 
Cupertino are on the same time, I really wanted to get rid of one of them.  I 
found that by doing a double tap and hold with 1 finger, that it would bring up 
a list of other items you can choose.  So I only wanted to change a few not all 
of them so I now have in the bottom left corner, the temperature outside.  In 
the right bottom corner I have the day and date I.E. Friday 15.  Way cool!

Re: Apple Watch won't speak

I didn't even know that that bar kind of button was also the power button.  
Then again like my wife said.  Stop playing with it all day and the battery 
will last longer.  Good point that.

Re: Moving to another provider

[Alan Paganelli]

You might ask yourself why that is.  Two years ago I dropped Sprint because 
they kept screwing up the bill.  We would find these little charges for Nicole 
and dime stuff.  When asked their answer was oh that's just administration 
fees.  Well Sprint, I'm blind not stupid so one of the two of us has to go and 
I like me so goodbye to you.  Sense then I've been with AT  My 2 year 
agreement with them is up and then some.  I'm just waiting for the fall when We 
plan on getting rid of our present iPhones.  My wife still uses her iPhone 4 
and I'm still using my iPhone 5s.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Alan Paganelli]

googles worked great for me when trying to read the digital display on my 
washing machine.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Alan Paganelli]

That's easy.  I can swip through the information about the app but that button 
their talking about is not there.  I even tried the home button.  All that did 
was to take me out of the app like it should.  I have also uninstalled the app 
and redone loaded from the iTunes Store.  Same result.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Alan Paganelli]

Ok, I played around with and finally got it to work.  It correctly identified 
the color of my shirt.  When I changed it to object and aimed it at my face, it 
identified my face as face.  I expected it to say picture of handsome gentlemen 
but then they didn't make the app fiction! LOL!

Thanks to all who helped.

Re: I'm stumped with listening to audio on the NFL Mobile app.

I have no problem with the 49ers!  But I understand your frustration.  I figure 
for a hundred bucks we should get better service.

Re: I can't listen to audio games on NFL Mobile.

[Alan Paganelli]

More and more those games are being controlled.  I used another app and got the 
Bears game just to listen to the Bears get their butt kicked again.  This was 
from a small station and it's possible some reckless forgot to kill the feed.

I'v just opened up the NFL app on my iPhone 5s.  When the app opens now, it's a 
blank screen.  I've tried resetting my phone etc.  No joy.  So I guess I'm

I forgot about that game last night.  My son in law is a Packers fan so I tease 
him every chance I get like when the Bears win which didn't happen very much in 
2015.  Hopefully the 2016 season will be better.  Oh great! now I'm sounding

Re: I can't listen to audio games on NFL Mobile.

[Alan Paganelli]

You can get the games on Tune in radio but only if you pay for the premium 
package.  I don't know what it costs.

Re: I was able to send my issue with the NFL Mobile app through the contact form on nfl.com

[Alan Paganelli]

For me, it's the NFL Mobile app on my iPhone and iPad.  Oddly enough, 
everything else in the app works.  It's just that I can't listen to any of the 
games I paid a hundred bucks for.  I don't want to listen to games on my 
Windows 10 laptop.  I want to listen to them on my iPad or iPhone so I'm not 
tied to a 17.3 inch laptop that I would not want to hump around.

Re: Benefits of Apple Watch

[Alan Paganelli]

LOL, I selected the Mickey Mouse face. It shows the time with out the seconds 
as the description says Mickey taps his foot to keep there seconds.  I figured 
I can't see him tap his foot so that probably wouldn't be showing the seconds 
and I was right.  So now I get the time and temperature and Cupertino too! LOL! 
 I wonder what it would show if I were in Chicago. LOL!  Thanks so much for
