Phone update question

2024-03-31 Thread Duane Steele



I'm one of those people who update their phones later than most. This morning, 
I wanted to download an APP and discovered I'd have to have the latest version. 
Good reason to update from iOS 16. Is there a way to do this by having it 
happen overnight, instead of putting my phone out of commission during the day 
while the update is being installed? Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: The next generation of Speech Central has been launched

Hello Listers,After reading the latest AppleVis entry about speech central, I'm puzzled. Having been a Voice Dream user since its initial launch, and following its changes and updates to the present, I'm really not convinced about Speech Central. It's so easy to load Voice Dream content, and PDF documents read well. My question is: What would make me even want to try any other program? I don't ask this question to invoke controversy, but to learn why some would prefer any other program over Voice Dream. If, at some point, another program is more efficient than Voice Dream, I'll certainly jump on that proverbial "band wagon". For now, I'm just wondering... and exploring.

iOS and iPadOS


As the app was in the beta testing for more than two months some people may already know what the new version is about.
But during the beta period features were not publicly announced, that has happened for the first time just few days ago on the App Store.
This isn't just another update. It isn't even another big update. And it is hard to provide the comparison, but if you take any of the competing apps and their cumulative updates in the last 5 years the shear size doesn't even come close to this.
The full list improvements would require more than 1000 lines of text to tell. If we talk about new features, that would be still in hundreds of lines. Even major features are well above dozen of bullet lines.
So I would like to focus on just one thing that reveals all the magic behind the effort - the new Emulate book narration mode. This feature brings quite a bit of the soul to robotic voices. Check this benchmark using the Apple's Ava Premium voice on the same text in Speech Central and Voice Dream: https://youtu.be/lCbr8HqXUCc
Also you can check the same for Microsoft Ema voice in Speech Central and NaturalReader: https://youtu.be/HRiDafir-NY
Regarding the other features I'll just use the same list as I have used in the App Store:
- Design overhaul that maximises the space for the text on iPhone and adds sidebar functionality to the iPad
- Multiwindow/multidocument support on the iPad
- Instant mode for quick and simple reading
- Music Intermezzo - inject Apple Music into your listening
- Improved accessibility
- Improved sync - more comprehensive, robust and performant
- Numerous new settings options
- Siri voice command to start playing now works even behind the lock screen
As the app is free when used with VoiceOver, the best thing is to try it yourself: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/speech-central-ai-voice-reader/id1127349155

Re: SiriusXm issue

2023-12-17 Thread Duane Steele
My suggestion is meant to inspire somebody on the list who does have social 
media accounts. I used to, but like you, Richard, I don't now. I guess another 
avenue would be to try calling again during normal business hours when more 
staff is at work. Unfortunately, most of those who actually answer the phones 
are low-level employees, or just work in call centers scattered around the 
world. Maybe word of our dilemma will reach someone at SiriusXM who cares even 
a little bit.

Hello Richard and all who subscribe to SiriusXM,

i suspect that the only way to get SiriusXM to respond to our concerns about 
accessibility in their current update is to launch a campaign on social media 
where we explain to the general public what's missing from our experience with 
their prodoct. I don't think they care one way or another if we who are 
visually impaired can use their product or not. we're not a priority market for 
SiriusXM. Fortunately, Todd Bruss is working on the StarplayrX APP, or, so 
we've been hearing. There are ways to work around the new SiriusXm APP. I have 
found it easier to navigate by going to the library tab where my favorites are, 
or going to search and manually typing in a term or channel. Perhaps this will 
help in the short term until we can get the attention of SiriusXm's management.

Hello Mark,

As a retired clergy-person who loves Bible study and uses a braille display 
every day, I strongly recommend using Voice Dream reader and downloading 
preferred Bible translations from Bookshare. That's what I do these days. I 
used to use Bible Gateway until one day, like so many APPS, it became almost 
impossible to use without sight. Feel free to contact me by phone or email for 
any  further assistance. You may call my cell phone which is part of my

Re: SiriusXm issue

2023-12-14 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks Christopher. It didn't show up in today's updates for my iPhone. Also, 
I'm still not able to log into the Starplayrx App that's meant to be the more 
user-friendly Sirius app. In that APP, once you're logged in, you're always 
logged in, that is, until this morning. Thanks for what you've been able to 
share thus far.

SiriusXm issue

2023-12-14 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

Recently, there was discussion about the forthcoming "improved" SiriusXM APP 
due for release today. So far, there's been no change. However, I also use the 
simple StarplayrX APP, and, today, when opening the APP, I received an error 
message that because of so many incorrect logins, I've been blocked from the 
APP for 24 hours. I don't recall these "incorrect logins", and wonder if the 
APP may have been shut down temporarily, or permanently. Any thoughts from 
other users?

Re: SiriusXM To Update Service And App: How Will This Affect Accessibility?

2023-11-30 Thread Duane Steele
hello Friends,

I also received this notice about siriusXM and wonder how their newly updated 
APP will affect those of us who enjoy programs like MetOpera Radio. The problem 
we all face here is that there's no one at SiriusXM we can contact directly who 
would even care how their updates might change things permanently, and not in 
our favor. I reckon we'll all just live in suspense until December 14th. Let's 
all hope we can still have our programming preferences just as  we do now.

Hi VickieThe most practical way to play extended files from Dropbox is to create afolder in Voice Dream Reader and add the Dropbox material to your Roice Dream library in much the same way that Bookshare files can be added.

Hi,
 
I always play my mp3 books in Dropbox. Most often 
they are in smaller segments, but sometimes I get one which has the entire book 
in one file.
 
For some reason, Dropbox will not allow a file

smaller files, so is there any way to get DB to play it for the entire book or 
another player that will work on the phone that will?
 
Thanks.

Hello Dear Friends,

I haven't purchased a book from iTunes in some time. this morning I found a 
book I'd really like to read, and, without thinking much about it, I bought it. 
I want to read using a Braille device, but suddenly all the books I bought in  
the past, and this new one also, are virtually unreadable. I recently upgraded 
to the SE third generation iPhone, if that helps solve the problem. Maybe not. 
Any ideas?

Re: Hiding the reader view

Thanks so much, Delia for answering my question about hiding the reader view 
when completing a specific process such as billing. That info was very helpful, 
indeed. I'll remember it when the next billing cycle comes around. It's a good 
thing for all of us who pay bills with our iDevices to know.

Hello iPhone list,

I'm not sure if this question got posted as planned. So, I'm going to repost it 
in the hope that somebody will know how to solve my dilemma. The only other 
alternative solution is to set up an autoPay option. I'll do this only as a 
last resort.

Yesterday, when I went to pay a bill, I got to the final step where I check a 
box that says I agree to the terms. and I couldn't hide the reader view which 
contained a brief article to check the appropriate box. I didn't have this 
problem in previous months. I should say that I recently updated my phone. In 
the past I could just go to the top of the Ppage. Format options would appear 
here. Has this changed? If so, where will I find the options? Thanks in advance 
for any help.

Re: [External] RE: NFL audio on the iPhone

2022-08-12 Thread Duane Steele
Steve, TuneIn will allow pre-season coverage of the NFL just like in past 
years. However, when the regular season begins, TuneIn's coverage ends. I 
suggest to everyone on this continuing thread that the easiest way to listen to 
the NFL will be through SiriusXM. They truly take all the guess work out of 
live coverage, especially with the Playrrx APP which allows for easy set-up of 
favorite teams and channels.

Well CJ, that's a great plan. So was the alternate player which I've been using 
all weekend for Major League baseball instead of MLB. TuneIn has proven to be a 
major disappointment. SiriusXM is my choice for the upcoming Football and 
Basketball season, also. Enjoy.

Chris, why didn't I think of that! Going to All Stars in the APP brings up all 
my presets! That may well be the best 99 cents I've spent since I got my last 
good candy bar! That's been quite some time ago! LOL

Thanks Joseph. I find my favorites in the regular SiriusXM APP, but not in the 
StarPlayer APP itself. There, I just find all the categories. It's still an 
easier way to access SiriusXM, especially for sports.

Chris, one more question about the StarPlayerrx APP. When you've added a bunch 
of channels to your favorites, how do you then access the whole list of 
favorite channels? I can't seem to find all the channels I've selected. Thanks.

Re: NFL stream service

2022-08-03 Thread Duane Steele
Hello again,

On this thread I recently posted a note I received directly from TuneIn support 
apologizing for the fact that due to contractual restrictions, they will not be 
carrying the NFL this season. So, if you have seen something contrary to what 
TuneIn's own support team is saying, we'll just have to wait till the season 
starts.

Re: NFL stream service

2022-07-31 Thread Duane Steele
The days when you might be able to stream sports for free are long gone. A few 
years ago, there were some streams available such as Pro Footbal Radio which 
freely streamed some, but not all games, and usually not the games a person 
wanted. TuneIn Premium's probably the best bet.

Hi Anthony,

 I assume you're talking about ducking. If ducking's turned on, then the volume 
of your music or whatever you're playing on your phone  turns down so you can 
properly hear what voiceOver's saying. If you want voiceOver to be heard more 
clearly, turn this feature on. Hope this helps.

Today's MLB games don't start till 6:40 in the evening. That's why you're not

version, Audio is now the first choice. Hope this helps. (Let's go Mets.)

Re: Clubs for the visually disabled

2022-06-22 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Talli and others,

Just a brief note on this thread to remind you and anyone remommending the 
Matilda Ziegler magazine went out of print in 2009. It may still be somewhere 
online but any information it contains will be out of date. If it has returned 
under new management, I'd love to receive it again. I may bewrong but I'm 
pretty sure it no longer exists.
 

Peace & Blessings,

Re: Ad blocker for youtube

2022-03-09 Thread Duane Steele
The only effective way to get rid of ads on YouTube is just to subscribe to it. 
If you use YouTube a lot, the monthly subscription’s the only way to go, and 
doesn’t cost much more than the ad blocker you may subscribe to. After all, 
YouTube is a business. So, naturally it depends on advertising.

Re: Orbit Reader/iPhone Update

2022-03-03 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks Richard. Sorry you have a cold. At least you hope that's what it is. 
Truthfully, I don't quite know how to access files on an SD Card with the Orbit 
Reader. I've removed it when using the Orbit Reader with my iPhone. Stand alone 
mode seems confusing, and I don't have any way to get files off my phone and on 
to an SD card, though I know reading the church bulletin would be easier with 
just the Orbit, so I really must investigate this since I have several SD cards 
with text files on them that I have used with the BrailleEdge 40. I look 
forward to chatting with you by phone or e-mail when you feel better. Meantime, 
get well and stay hydrated.

Peace & Blessings,

I've only had the Orbit Reader for a week, and "stand alone" mode, which 
requires using the SD card seems somewhat confusing. I'm using it specifically 
with my phone and using the iPhone commands. It's purpose is to be used mostly 
when traveling. I have written some notes using Voice Dream Writer and, after a 
few sentences, when writing in Grade 2 Braille, the extra dots begin appearing 
every few words. As yet, I haven't mastered "stand alone" mode, so I'm not sure 
what I would do there. Besides, doesn't that mode only work for writing files 
to the SD card? I don't know how I'd get them from the SD card to the iPhone 
itself. by the way, thanks Richard for staying with me on this. Shoot me your 
phone number or call me any time if you think we might resolve this issue

Orbit Reader/iPhone Update

2022-03-02 Thread Duane Steele
Hello again, Listers,

I'm continuing to play with my new Orbit Reader 20 plus and my iPhone 8, and 
continuing to grapple with the extra capitalization. My latest discovery is 
that if I write in computer braille grade 1, where I can view the characters 
individally, the problem doesn't exist. It's only when I write in Grade 2 
Braille that the extra capitals appear. I'm adept in both formats, and this is 
my travel Braille display. So, my question is, is there no real answer to my 
dilemma of extra capitalization? Just wondering out loud. I've done everything 
that has been suggested with little result, but I'm open to further 
suggestions, and wondering if others with Orbit Braille displays have 
encountered similar problems.

Hi Richard,

I have turned off auto capitalization in settings, and it is as you describe. 
For example, it might write the word where as a divided word with capital 
letters randomly placed in the word. I might write for 20 minutes without a 
problem, and suDisenly have several capitilized words in a row. It's all 
random. So I can't really duplicate the problem.

HERE's an Orbit update. Notice that The very first word is in all caps, not my 
choice.  I'M finding that if I input characters slowly, all seems to go 
normally. Perhaps that's the solution with the smaller device... to write more 
slowly. After all, I will use it mostly when away from home.

Re: an orbit reader/iPhone question

With each display I have had, I always turn the display on first, and then the 
iPhone. I haven't encountered this problem until I recently decided I wanted a 
smaller display for carrying with me to use my phone. With the Orbit reader, 
the sleep mode feature's a good idea for instant use. However, when the 
Reader's off overnight, or, when I shut it off completely, it may, when turning 
on, say it's connected, but it doesn't work. The Orbit research people merely 
remind me to do what's in the manual, and, with regard to it recognizing the 
iPhone's connection, they just say forget the device and re-pair it. Your 
suggestion's a good one. Thanks.

an orbit reader/iPhone question

2022-02-25 Thread Duane Steele
Hello friends,

I have purchased an Orbit Reader 20 Plus, and all attempts To keep it paired 
with my iPhone 8 For more than a short time fail. I have contacted technical 
support and followed the instructions in the manual to the letter. If I keep 
the unit in "sleep" mode, it stays connected. However, after turning it 
completely off, though it recognizes the ORBIT reader, and in settings it says 
the unit is connected, there is no response. I am told By technical support to 
just unpair and re-pair the unit. Really? every day, and even twice a day? 
Orbit Research, from which I bought the READER directly, offErs no other 
advice. I'm about ready to just give up and send it back. But first, I turn to 
some of you who might know how to solve my connection problem. Thanks in 
advance for any assistance.

Re: Sending a file from Voice Dream

2022-01-14 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks Richard. I tried exporting the original file option hoping I could 
attach the document. I wanted to attach a couple of multi-page documents, 
sending them individually to a friend. I thought "export original file" would 
allow me to attach the files I want to send. Thanks for your quick response.

Sending a file from Voice Dream

Hello Listers.

I have some files in Voice Dreaam Reader that I want to send to a friend. How 
do I attach such files to an e-mail. When I go to insert attachment, the files 
don’t even show up. Should I copy them to Writer before sending them as 
attachments? Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Re: BARD and the Locked screen

2022-01-09 Thread Duane Steele
Richard, that's cool! Since I'm just using an iPhone, and no computer these 
days, do I need any sort of APP like I do for SERO, or can I just go to 
audiovault. Come to think of it, I used to have an account here ages and ages 
ago, before the iPhone helped me leave my Windows 7 computer behind. I'm not 
even sure it works anymore. LOL

Thanks Richard. Right after I sent that message, it occurred to me to do 
exactly what you say in your response, and it worked! I can't help but wonder 
why that happens in the BARD APP so often. I just recently started using the 
APP again after some time because I just wanted to hear  a human voice reading 
to me. I haven't tried reading Braille with BARD lately because so much is now 
already available in Voice Dream, and Braille and Voice Dream are working very 
well together. I always appreciate your help on the iPhone list.

Even though I have set up playing on the locked screen in settings in the BARD 
APP, when I play talking-books, I can't seem to be able to play them on the

external storage for iPhone

2022-01-03 Thread Duane Steele
Hello iPhone Listers,

Forgive me if I'm running over old territory. I have some files on an SD card 
recorded on my Victor Stream that I'd like to get stored in my Dropbox folder. 
But my old Windows computer has, shall we say given up the ghost. I have 
Dropbox as a readily accessible APP on my iPhone. Is there a device you might 
recommend to attach to my iPhone from which I could send files to my dropbox. 
Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Re: accessible battery pack

2021-12-28 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks Tammy. Well, I'm using safari and when I double-tap on the button that 
says 1, nothing happens. I've also tried calling the 800 number, and no matter 
what button you press, the number hangs up. So I guess I'll wait till someone 
actually gets one of these batteries and that person can tell the rest of us 
how to get one. At this moment, it all sounds strange. I'll keep following this 
thread to see where, exactly, it takes us when all is said and done.

Dennis, Although I add my affirmation concerning this charger, I also add an 
update. I went to the link and tried to purchase the charger just now. (It's 
shortly after 1pm Eastern time. I was able to add it to my cart, but could find 
no place on the page to check out and purchase the product. I called the 800 
number twice just to be sure. The first time, I pressed two to place an order, 
and a friendly voice said goodbye and hung up. The second time, I pressed 3 for 
customer service, and the same friendly voice said goodbye and hung up. All of 
this begs the question, how do we actually order the charger when we can't 
check out, or speak to someone to guide us through the ordering process? Any 
help with this will be greatly appreciated. I'd like to have one of these 
accessible chargers.

discovered that a number of tracks are listed twice and playing twice. Is it 
safe to go through the list of tracks and delete duplicate tracks? I can't help

Re: An Apple Music Question

2021-12-08 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks for the good answers to my Apple Musicquestion.  Truly appreciated. I 
discovered this option of seeing the full album but still, last year this 
option wasn't necessary on this particular Christmas album because the full 
album already appeared. Maybe  this happens when you don't play an album for 
some time, say a whole year like most holiday albums. I love this list because 
from it we all glean so much information.

An Apple Music Question

2021-12-07 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

I have an APPLE music subscription. This morning, I went to my library to play 
a specific album only to find that a number of tracks are missing from the 
original download... just vanished into cyperspace. Does anyone have any 
suggestions on how to retrieve missing tracks which iTunes, in its own special 
wisdom has decided to just delete from one's library? I'm sure this has been 
discussed before, and will welcome suggestions from previous posts. It's a bit 
disturbing to discover that music is randomly deleted from the iTunes library 
for which we pay a monthly subscription. That's my rant (sermon) for the day. 
Hope everyone on the list stays safe and well, and has a blessed holiday season.


Peace & Blessings,
Pastor Duane L. Steele

Re: Recordings From DropBox

2021-11-14 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks Sighard for this valuable info about Dropbox. One more thought, however. 
If you changed that zero to one in the file itself, would it do the same thing 
without having to cut and paste it back and forth? Just wondering. After all, 
you can edit and rename the file in Dropbox, anyway. Again, thanks for the 
info. I hope it helps Steve with his sharing of meetings with 
colleagues/coworkers.

Re: Accessible Portable Power Bank

2021-11-11 Thread Duane Steele
I guess my power bank's an antique! Four years ago, The Harbolt Company briefly 
carried a power bank that beeped or vibrated to indicate battery levels. I got 
one of them, and it still works. Unfortunately, the company that made them 
wanted too much money. So Brent Harbold was forced to discontinue carrying 
them. To my knowledge, no other such accessible "juicebox" has ever been made. 
I guess that when I no longer have this one, I'll have to rely on sighted help 
or just guess when it's time to charge the box.

Re: An IPhone/Braille Device question

2021-11-04 Thread Duane Steele
Thank you, Anna, for reminding me of a braille command I should have 
remembered, i.e. the space bar plus p for pausing unwanted speech. This sudden 
outburst of speech is a relatively new quirk when using an external keyboard 
like a Braille device. In fact just now I had it happen again. When it does, in 
case it should happen to others, and you press the space bar plup p, be sure 
and check to see where your cursor is before continuing to type, and then, if 
it's not where you last saw it, you can change the position before continuing 
to write. Again, Thanks to Anna for solving my dilemma with the Braille device.

An IPhone/Braille Device question

2021-11-04 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

I can't remember if this issue has been addressed. But when writing with my 
Braille display with speech on, sometimes it starts speaking and the only way 
to stop it is by pressing the space bar, which, of course moves the cursor away 
from where it should be. Is there any way to stop this sudden interruption when 
writing in Braille on my device? Thanks for any help with this strange problem.

Re: Westminster Chimes Full updated for iOS15 compatibility.

2021-11-03 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Diane, and others on this list,

Regarding Westminster Chimes, I have found that the only way to get the chimes 
to ring consistently is to be sure your phone is unmuted. When the phone is 
muted, the chimes will still vibrate so you know they're working if the phone's 
in your pocket. But they won't ring unless the phone's unmuted. That's been my 
experience, and I hope it helps.

Joe, why not invest in MBraille as a third-party keyboard. It's easy to use 
when on the go, has many great functions like being able to send texts and 
e-mails, and switching back and forth between keyboards is easy. It's certainly 
worth the $40 or so that it costs to purchase. When I don't have my Braille 
device with me, MBraille is the only other keyboard to use in my humble 
opinion. Check it out in the APP in the APP store. You can even download a 
basic version to play with before deciding to buy it. 
 

Peace & Blessings,

Re: pairing my focus 40 blue with my iPhone

2021-10-28 Thread Duane Steele
I'm so glad it worked. I figured it would since I have had the same issue in 
the past when having a "senior" moment. I love my Braille device, and would 
never be without one again. I'm so glad we can read entire books on our iPhones.

Hi Donald,

I guess the logical question to ask is how  you are trying to re-pir the Focus 
Braille display. Are you doing it by going to Accessibility, VoiceOver and then 
Braille? I ask because I once forgot and tried to do it under the normal 
bluetooth settings. Just wondering.

Re: Query relating to Bluetooth speakers

2021-10-13 Thread Duane Steele
A postscript to your texts about Bluetooth speakers and VO for those wanting to 
know is that most Bose bluetooth speakers do not change at all when going to 
more info and clicking on speaker, but continue to play VO through the speaker. 
Anyone contemplating purchasing a Bose unit should be aware of this in case 
there's some concern about playing VO through speaker or iPhone. Those wanting 
this feature to be consistent with voiceOver going through the phone and 
everything else through the speaker may wish to check out other brands.

Re: creating voice dream folders

2021-09-24 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks Richard. I was successful, and have my files in place. I will add one 
thing. When you go into this new folder you have created, and you want to add 
files that will read consecutively, add those files in reverse order. For 
example, if you have six files to put in this folder, put number six in the 
folder first, and then five, etc. etc. All is well. Thanks for refreshing my 
memory. I really love Voice Dream Reader.

Could someone remind me how to create folders in Voice Dream Reader? I have 
some stuff in Dropbox I'd like to play/read using Voice dream and want to put 
them in separate folder groups. Thanks in advance for allowing this issue to be

Re: An APPLE TV Question

2021-09-13 Thread Duane Steele
Thank you, Sieghard, I'll keep that in mind. The performance on APPLE TV was 
exceptional. A colleague in ministry strongly encouraged us to watch it because 
she'd just seen it over the weekend. A great musical, and a great bunch of 
folks helping folks in a very desperate crisis.

Thanks Richard and Christopher for those responses. This is all good

An APPLE TV Question

2021-09-13 Thread Duane Steele
Hello iPhone Listers,

This past weekend, as the nation remembered the horrible events of 9/11, a 
friend remommended that I watch a musical on APPLE TV+ called "Come from Away". 
It's the story of people who found themselves in a small village in Canada when 
the airlines were grounded. I have just subscribed to APPLE TV+ because I 
wanted to see this musical for myself. I recommend the show to each one on this 
list, even as I ask a question: I would like my children to see this musical 
even though only some of them even have iPhones. Can people subscribe to APPLE 
TV without owning APPLE products, or, are programs that air on APPLE TV+ 
available outside that platform?

Re: Cyber Hymnal?

2021-09-11 Thread Duane Steele
Don, I searched the APP store and found several digital hymnals but I'm 
reluctant to download or purchase any because I can't find out whether their 
content is accessible with voiceOver. Perhaps I'll take the risk and purchase 
one of them and let you and the others on this list know whether it works or 
not.

2021-09-10 Thread Duane Steele
Hello IPhone Listers,

Over the past week or so, I've noticed that some of my APPS are listed as being 
in iCloud and when I open them, they download again before opening. Past 
attempts to open such files have resulted in their opening without having to 
download them again. Why might this be happening? Any suggestions? Thanks in 
advance.


Peace & Blessings,

Re: Adding emojis when using a Braille device

Thanks Chela. I had forgotten all about those emoji signs in cumputer braille. 
I used to have a whole list of them. It might be fun, if somebody has that list 
to share it.

Adding emojis when using a Braille device

2021-09-09 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

I sent thit question out yesterday. But since I had some internet issues last 
night and this morning, I thought I’d ask it again in case any of you with 
Braille devices have a suggestion. I'm not sure how to add imojis that might be 
appropriate in some texts, e-mails, FB posts, etc. when I'm using a braille 
device, and then return to the keyboard. Is this possible? maybe not, and it’s 
not all that important. But I’ll ask anyway. Thanks for any input, even if it 
can’t be done.

Re: Notes versus word when it comes to device syncing, dictation, and Trustworthierback ups?

2021-09-07 Thread Duane Steele
Besides echoing what Richard has said about Voice Dream Writer, I want to add 
that these days, I do a lot of writing with my iPhone and Braille device. 
Editing's easy in Voice Dream Writer, and if someone dictates something to you 
and you write in this APP, whatever you  write is much more accurately 
preserved. What I mean by this is that sometimes when writing in the Notes APP, 
text gets placed somewhere in the middle. So, when I write, I'm able to easily 
use Grade 2 Braille, and edit my writing using computer braille. It's well 
worth the price! When interruptions cause you to have to leave a document, 
you’re right where you need to be when you return.

Thank you, Paula, for that number. My audiologist didn't give me that kind of

device. I'll call their tech support number, and, of course, if I really have 
to, I'll go back in to see her.

A hearing aid/iPhone question

2021-08-27 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

I recently took delivery of a new Starkey hearing aid that connects directly 
with my iPhone. I returned to the audiologist on Wednesday for some fine tuning 
after two weeks of use. On Wednesday evening, I went to check the battery 
status of the hearing aid and discovered the audiologist had inadvertently 
renamed my device to that of the previous client... someone named Patricia. 
Naturally, I e-mailed her to point out this error, and she said she'd made a 
mistake and I'd have to return next week to have her correct it. My question is 
this: Is there any way I can do this myself without returning to the 
audiologist? For instance, if I disconnected the hearing aid and reconnected 
it, would it recognize my iPhone, or, is returning to the audiologist my only 
option? Just wondering, and trying to avoid the inconvenience of having to 
return just to get the right name on my new hearing aid. Thanks for any 
suggestions.
 

Peace & Blessings,
Pastor Duane L. Steele

Re: please do not update to the latest messenger

2021-08-24 Thread Duane Steele
Sighard, The intent of my message was not to say bugs shouldn't be reported, 
but was to say that the subject line isn't true. It's okay to update Messenger, 
and misleading to say we shouldn't update when the bug doesn’t interfere with 
our use of the APP. Be kind and careful when interpreting posts, and read 
carefully before responding harshly. Thanks.

I think it's a "bug". But it probably won't be considered one, or fixed unless 
someone can find a way to contact the developer of the FB APP.

Re: please do not update to the latest messenger

2021-08-24 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

I normally don't reply within threads of conversation unless I have something 
to say. This thread about not updating Messenger has simply got to disappear. 
The only thing different in the latest Messenger update is that it reads all 
messages within conversations as unread. Otherwise, it's exactly the same as 
previous versions, and updating it is fine. So let's get rid of this thread 
that's truly meaningless. It's perfectly okay to update Messenger. Besides, 
when we talk to friends and family on this platform, we know they're reading 
our messages because they answer them. Enjoy the current update.
 

Peace & Blessings,
Pastor Duane L. Steele

Re: Bose Connect and iPhone

2021-08-22 Thread Duane Steele
We can discontinue this thread as of this message from me, its originator. I 
downloaded and tried Bose Connect. It's not accessible, and I find that I can 
just as easily use just one speaker at a time without it. Apparently, the only 
real purpose of Bose Connect is to get folks to create accounts so that Bose 
can advertise in their inboxes. I'm okay with just pairing my speakers as I 
have always done, and I've shared this info with my son who had originally 
suggested that I might like Bose Connect. For us who are blind, it really 
doesn't work!

Bose Connect and iPhone

2021-08-21 Thread Duane Steele
I have two Bose speakers and my son insists I'd love pairing them together with 
Bose Connect. How is this done, and is Bose Connect accessible? What, exactly 
do I do once I've downloaded the APP, or, do I have to do anything other than 
pair each speaker to the iPhone? Thanks for any help with this. At least the 
APP's free, so if it's not accessible, I can remove it from my phone.

A new phone setup question

2021-08-16 Thread Duane Steele
Hello Listers,

I'm considering getting a new iPhone, and, whenever I'm about to get some new 
device, I find it scary, at the very least. So here's my question. When I take 
my new phone out of the box and begin the set-up process, I'd like to use my 
Braille device as soon as possible to enter information. How soon in the set-up 
process may I connect the device, or is this even necessary or possible. Can I 
set my new phone up without help from anyone? Just wondering as I consider this 
giant step. Thanks for advice and encouragement from those of you who are much 
more tech savvy than I am.

Simon, sounds like a plan. Just text me off list for loan details, and be 
prepared for the high interest rate. Actually, the APP is still accessible. I 
just wasn't prepared for what Bank of America is declaring as the APP's new 
log-in screen. But I can still find the money. LOL

Re: Bookshare experience

2021-08-11 Thread Duane Steele
I love Bookshare for so many reasons I can't begin to number them. If they 
doubled the annual subscription, I'd still pay it. I'm amazed you haven’t been 
using it already! ,you’ll absolutely love it! You can read using a voice or 
using a braille display, and the braille is good. Go for it! Then let us all 
know how great it is.

Re: iPhone/Hearing Aid questions

2021-08-10 Thread Duane Steele
Hi Paul and others, I'm not sure the Thrive APP is necessary for my hearing 
device. But I do have some questions about the device’s relationship with the 
iPhone. What, for instance, does stream boost mean when I see it under settings 
for the device, and in the control center. Oh, and by the way, it's great to be 
able to tell how much battery life remains. With the Phonak device and 
accompaning ComPilot with which it connected to the phone, this wasn't an 
option. As for the APP my audiologist downloaded, I don't see much real use for 
it. I think I'll love the hearing aid, however. Thanks for the input.

Re: iPhone/Hearing Aid questions

2021-08-10 Thread Duane Steele
Thanks for the response. Good advice. Oh, and I did find out how to check the 
hearing aid's battery status. It's in two places, under the device name in 
settings, and under hearing devices in the control center. So far, I like the 
sound of phone calls, and I suspect it's a matter of preference for each 
person. Which for the issue of wearing over-the-ear headphones from time to 
time, I'll take the hearing aid out during such usage and place it in its 
charger because for the Starkey device I have, it's the only way to turn it 
completely off.

By the way, let me take this opportunity to say how much I appreciate what I 
learn from following threads on the iPhone list. This is a great group of 
iPhone supporters. 

Peace & Blessings,
Pastor Duane L. Steele
