Jailbreaking 7.04 - iBlindTech 56

2014-01-23 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi all, 

On the latest episode of iBlindTech, Hugo joins us today to walk through 
jailbreaking iOS 7.04. With Apple’s latest beta release of iOS 7.1, it appears 
they have closed the exploits that allow this jailbreak. Also many of the 
problems that users were experiencing when this jailbreak was first released 
have now been fixed. So if you’re considering a jailbreak, now’s the time to 
jump on it.

Re: Bread Crumb GPS

2014-01-09 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Ward,

There’s both a free and paid version of an app called MyWay which works very 
well. Link  app store description of free version below. In short though, it 
will allow you to drop a series of breadcrumbs which you can save as a route, 
modify or add to at a later time and of course start following from either end 
whenever you like. You can setup as many of these routes as you like. 
https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/myway-lite/id494516234?mt=8

GPS orientation aid which provides distance and directional information to a 
selected point of interest. Such a point can be an address from your address 
book or a point of a self-defined route. The non-free version of MyWay also 
allows file exchange via the iTunes filesharing option. There, you can also 
import files containing nodes in Open Street Map format giving access to 
hundreds of POI in the proximity such as bus stops or restaurants. Thanks to 
VoiceOver, visually impaired and blind people have unlimited access to this 
app. We recommend to turn on speaking of VoiceOver hints.

iBlindTech 54 - Getting the most from your Apple ID - is posted

2013-10-14 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi All

In this episode of iBT I take a look at how to configure your iPhone with 
multiple Apple IDs. This is particularly useful where you have multiple people 
in your family using iOS devices. 

In short, each Apple ID comes with the ability to make purchases in the app  
iTunes stores and access to iCloud services such as iCloud backup and an iCloud 
email address. I suggest using one singular Apple ID to make purchases through 
the App  iTunes stores across your family.  Than setup separate Apple ID's for 
use with the iCloud services. By doing this you will be able to avoid 
purchasing the same apps and media multiple times in your family whilst each 
person retains there own backup and iCloud storage space amongst other iCloud 
services.

Please find a direct link to the podcast media file below and if you have any 
questions please email me directly as I am not always able to keep up with list 
traffic:

Re: AppStore Updates - apps stay in Update screen indicating Open for days after updating

2013-09-27 Thread Garth Humphreys
I haven't noticed a way of turning this off, the one good thing is that at 
least it seems to sort the apps such that the ones which have not been updated 
yet are at the top, irrespective of when the update was made available. Also I 
quite like to be able to go back and check the changes and updates.  I can 
nderstand how this clutter would be annoying for some though .

 Hi,
  
 I may have missed comments on this given the recent list traffic. If so, I

 I’m used to updating apps from the Update tab, and then the apps, once 
 updated, disappear from the Update list.
  
 In iOS7 thus far, it appears the app stay on the update tab for days after 
 updating and indicate “open”, confirming they have been updated.
  
 Is there any way to remove this clutter from the Update screen, so when I go 
 it to the Update screen, the only items there are the ones that are available 
 for updating?
  
 I couldn’t find any info under iTunes and AppStore in Settings about this.
 Thanks, Keith

 : Apple spokesperson has provided some important new details about how Touch
 : ID will work and how it will keep users' privacy safe.
 :
 : First, Apple says that it isn't storing full scans of users' fingerprints 
 on
 : the device and is only storing fingerprint data that stays encrypted on
 : the iPhone 5s processor. Because this data is fragmented pieces of
 : information about users' fingerprints rather than full images, Apple says
 : that hackers won't be able to reverse engineer the users' original scans 
 if
 : they crack the chip.
 :
 : Those aren't the only security features Apple has built into Touch ID, of
 : course. The company also tells users that they need to create a passcode
 : before scanning their fingerprints that they'll need to use when they 
 reboot
 : their phone or if their phone has stayed unlocked for more than two days. 
 In
 : other words, using your fingerprint alone won't be enough to unlock your
 : iPhone in all circumstances. Additionally, Apple has put up a firewall
 : between Touch ID and third-part apps so there's no way for a rogue
 : application to steal your fingerprint data.
 :
 : Finally, Apple cautions users that they shouldn't expect Touch ID to work
 : perfectly all the time. In particular Apple's engineers found that the
 : fingerprint scanner doesn't respond well when users' hands are wet with
 : sweat or other liquids. The sensor also has trouble in instances where
 : users' fingers have been scarred or disfigured in some way.

Re: turning on VO on new iPad

2013-08-18 Thread Garth Humphreys
I am not sure why you have had this experience. I have setup numerous iPads and 
iPhones straight out of the box with the triple click of the home button. You 
do not need sighted assistance to do this. This will also work on an old iphone 
that has been reset to factory defaults and upon which Voice Over has not 
previously been setup.
1.  Press the power button and hold for a second or two. 
2.  Allow 30 seconds or so for the device to boot up fully. 
3.  Press the home button once to wake the screen just in case you've 
waited too long for the boot up.
4.  Triple click the home button and Voice Over will start up. 

The above instructions are for a brand new device or one which has been reset 
to factory defaults. You will notice a section on the screen which Voice Over 
will read out in different languages each time you swipe on and off it. This is 
where you now need to do a double tap in order to start the initial 
configuration of the device.

In the below podcast I show the unboxing and initial setup of the iPad mini

Re: Can I put IPhone Apps on A thumb Drive? What folder in iTunes would I Copy them into?

2013-07-23 Thread Garth Humphreys
You'll find the apps in a folder call Mobile Applications within the iTunes 
Media folder which in turn is in the iTunes folder. When transferring them back 
you can just paste them back into the Add to iTunes Automatically folder 
which is also within the iTunes Media folder. 

This is not really necessary, if the worst happened and your computer died, 
them you'd be able to re-download all the apps again. For example if you have 
your phone set to back up via iCloud, you can restore a new phone from this 
backup and not use the computer at all. However, one good reason to backup the 
applications in a separate  location though is to allow you to retain an old 
version of the apps. For example, if a particular app is updated by the 
developer and made inaccessible, you can roll back the version of the installed 
app to the prior one.

 store the apps separately. Also if they are on a thumb drive how would I get 
 them back into ITunes? I should say which folder in iTunes would I copy them 
 into? If this is too complicated, or if it has been discussed before please 
 write me off list. Thank you all again.
 God Bless,
 
 Wren

The Voice Memos app - iBlindTech 51

2013-07-13 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi All

In this episode of the iBlindTech Democast I take you through using the 
integrated Voice Memos app on the iPhone and iPod. This app doesn't appear on 
the iPad. The Voice Memos app allows you to make audio recordings on your 
phone.  It includes the ability to pause and resume the recording and trim the 
finished recording prior to sharing it. 

Hope you enjoy. There's a direct link to the file below.

Re: Question about emailing with fleksy

2013-05-22 Thread Garth Humphreys
As with any email you create on iOS outside the mail app, it will automatically 
be from the default account. However once you've got the email there it is easy 
to change the account from which it is being sent. Simply double tap on where 
you see the account, i.e. your email address.  This will open up the Cc, Bcc 
and From fields for editing.   You will need to double tap on your account 
again than there will be a picker at the bottom of the screen from which you 
can choose the email account from which you want to send.

Re: How do I keep a permanent copy of the books I download to the iPhone

2013-05-03 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Neil, I am guessing from your question that you are purchasing audio books 
from the iTunes store on your phone. If so, I would recommend that you connect 
your phone to iTunes, and than choose the Transfer Purchases option from the 
File Menu. This will transfer a copy of your purchased book to your computer 
and when you delete it from your phone, it will not be deleted from your 
computer. My apologies if my assumptions are wrong.

iBlindTech 48 - The Earl App

2013-04-27 Thread Garth Humphreys
This week I welcome Bill to the podcast to talk to us about this intuitive news 
reading app. He gives us a brief history of the development of the app and 
Angle LLC. We discuss the benefits and features along with what can be expected 
to be coming to Earl in the future. Bill also gives us some insight into the 
pricing structure for the Earl service subscription. You can try a fully 
functional version of the app out by downloading from the app store.: 

https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/earl/id573701016?mt=8

The app is free to try at time of writing. This allows you to read three 
articles per day and this limitation is removed with a monthly or annual 
subscription. 

Here's a link to play the episode.

Once you have them all in one playlist,  you can tap the Actions button at the

 Hi,
 
 I would choose the Playlists tab and follow the prompts to create a playlist 
 of partially played podcasts. I don't know if you can then delete everything 
 in the playlist, but at least they would all be gathered in one place, and 
 you could delete them using the double-tap and hold, swipe right method.

NO definitely no down sampling of the file with Downcast.  It's a great podcast

However since the most recent update, Apples own free podcast app is fine if

Re: Moving apps into folders?

2013-04-13 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Raul and others 

It's actually 20 apps with the iPad. 

I like your idea about the triple tap to mark for moving and than another 
triple tap for dropping. Nice. Like you I don't have much trouble with the 
current situation however it is certainly a bit fiddly at times. 

Unlike others I don't usually go to the bother of moving things in and out of 
my doc just in order to move than from page to page. I think this has been made 
quite simple in the last few iterations of iOS. One helpful trick is to 
remember that you don't need to place your finger on the actual app to do the 
double tap and hold. So if yo have an app on page one and want to move it to 
page two, you can put your focus on the app than do the double tap and hole on 
the far left of the screen. This way you have plenty of space to move your 
finger to the left and thus move the app to the second screen. This said 
there's definitely a place for using the Doc when moving lots of apps around 
and or creating folders.

 Hi, the limit is 12 apps per folder in an iPhone 4S and older. I believe that 
 the limit is 16 apps per folder in an iPhone 5 or any iPad.
 
 If you want to bypass this limitation, you can jailbreak and get a tweak like 
 Springtomize which has this feature.

 Subject: RE: Moving apps into folders?
 
 Hi jordan,
 
 The folders are exactly aligned in the rows and columns. I find it much
 easier to move a folder next to an app I want to put in it then the other
 way around. If you move an app and you accidently let go in the wrong spot
 you may put it into another folder or create a new one. If you move a folder
 you can really go with the little beeps as to how many spots you moved it
 left, right, up or down. Hence if I have an app in the very right place in
 row 4 and I want to move that into a folder that sits in row 2 and column 2
 (second from the left edge) then I move the folder into row 4 column 4 which
 means into the position the app is in, this will push the app into column 3
 on row 4 which means it will be just to the left of the folder. I would
 simply double tap and hold the folder, then drag it straight right 2 beeps
 which means it's now in column 4 on row 2, then I drag it straight down 2
 beeps. Now I look for the app to the left of the folder, I double tap and
 hold on it and drag it to the right just a bit until it says it's on the
 folder, then let go. Now I can drag the folder back to where I want it.
 
 This primarily is only a matter of practice and as long as you have good
 special awareness and are able to drag your finger straight across a row or
 straight up or down you'll get better at it. What will make it more
 unpredictable is if you have problems with the directions, e.g. you think
 you are dragging your finger straight across row 2, for example, but in fact
 you are dragging it across and down or across and up.

 Sieghard

 A folder will hold twelve apps. Also, sometimes VO will simply tell you
 which row and column you're on, so be sure to note where the folder's
 coordinates are. VO will sound a series of tones when you're sitting on a
 folder. You can pause there until the folder opens.

 I explore the screen a bit before moving apps around and moving them into
 folders, but it sounds like you're already doing that. Sometimes moving an
 app over next to a folder as an intermediate step helps. Also, folders only
 hold a certain amount of apps and once a folder is full, you can't move an
 app into it. You don't get a message to that fact; the move just won't take.

Re: Various USB Chargers, Interchangeable?

2013-04-08 Thread Garth Humphreys
There is no issue with using the various chargers with different devices. Given 
that the charger/manufacture is at least half decent. Much of our knowledge 
about battery care from the older rechargeable batteries should be thrown out 
when it comes to the batteries we find in iOS devices and other equipment of 
the era.Some of it can actually be deleterious to their long term use.

Re: Various USB Chargers, Interchangeable?

2013-04-08 Thread Garth Humphreys
I don't believe i stated that one shouldn't follow the care instructions for 
the particular battery being used, of course one should. As you said tips for 
using Nicad batteries still apply to Nicad batteries. However some of the 
common knowledge around caring for nicad batteries should not be applied to the 
newer LI batteries. I should probably have said some rather than much of 
the knowledge should be thrown away. However they definitely shouldn't be 
treated the same.

 Are you talking about cables that have a micro USB connector on one end that 
 plug into your device or a standard USB connector on the other end that goes 
 into your PC or an AC adapter?
 
 In the first case, I personally wouldn't hesitate to interchange those 
 cables. A few years ago, the European Commission, and other international 
 groups, settled on the micro USB connector as the standard connector to be 
 used on cell phones to charge the device. This was specifically done to allow 
 customers to use the same cable for multiple devices.  The idea was to 
 protect the environment by not having to manufacture or dispose of as many 
 chargers for our electronic devices. Apple obviously chose not to follow this 
 standard.
 
 In the second case, given how little power is conveyed through the USB port, 
 I'd still feel comfortable interchanging such cables and chargers. Probably 
 the best thing though, is to use the charger that came with your device or do 
 a bit more research until your comfortable.
 
 One correction to Garth's statement below. It's best to follow the battery 
 care practices for the type of battery being used. Tips on using NiCad 
 batteries still apply to NiCad batteries. The change is that more and more 
 devices use Lithium Ion batteries, and the care and feeding for LI batteries 
 is different from the NiCad batteries that used to be so popular.

 If you understand what cut, copy, paste and undo are, then I don't see the

 I take different approaches depending on my audience.  Some people need to be

 insert T for the title bar and wining when they don't have an insert key.  
 other people can't use any synth other than elloquence and won't touch a new 
 platform unless they can have it speaking to them with reid at 166 wpm.  
 Insert epithet here.
 
 I honestly think you're probably flexible enough raul, that you don't need to

Re: question regarding the iCloud backup?

2013-03-31 Thread Garth Humphreys
I have 3 separate devices backed up to iCloud all in the same 5Gb standard 
iCloud account. If you check under settingsiCloudManageStorage you will find 
the size of your current backup and also if you have any other older backups 
from different devices or incarnations of your current device. 

If you've ensured the next backup is not going to be larger than the available 
space and you are still having an error, you can try deleting the current 
backup, and re-initiating the backup. Of course, prior to deleting the iCloud 
backup, I would recommend that you connect to your computer and get a 
up-to-date local backup. Also ensure your connected to wifi and a power source 
before trying to backup through iCloud.

 Hello,
  
 When I attempt to backup my iPhone 5 to the iCloud, I am told that it failed. 
 This has happened over and over again despite my efforts to limit what is 
 actually backed up.  Do members pay for additional iCloud service, or do you 
 use alternative methods for backing up your iPhone? I would appreciate your 
 help.  Thank you.

CoolBlindTech Episode 12 - Sixth Sense

2013-03-30 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi All 

Below is a link to a quick podcast on the iOS game Sixth Sense. For those not 
already aware of it, it is a 3D audio game where you need to take out zombies. 

Cool Blind Tech is a new podcast I have been working on with a friend or two. 
The podcast is about a variety of blindness related subjects and this is the 
first iOS related episode. Please feel free to check it out in iTunes or your 
favourite pod catcher by searching for CoolBlindTech. If you listen to episode 
1, we give a basic introduction to the podcast and give an overview of the 
intentions behind the show. There's currently also a number of CSUN related 
episodes on the site.

Re: iBlindTech 41 - Software Keyboards is out

Hi tina 

Sieghart has explained it all very well and I would agree with him that using a 
podcatcher like Downcast or iCatcher is the best way to listen to podcasts. 

If you need any further assistance with listening to my podcast please don't 
hesitate to right to me personally at 
iblindt...@gmail.com 

I love the list but I rarely get the time to read through all the posts these 
days and it was only good luck that I saw this posting.

 hi Tina,
 
 If you use a Podcast app such as Downcast or iCatcher you can subscribe to
 Garth's iBlindTech podcasts and personally I find that listening to Podcasts
 on my iPhone is the best way by far to do this. I can either download or
 stream them, it's all rather easy and straight forward.
 
 If you use a PC just go to the iBlindTech website, find the Podcast and
 right click on it, then chose Save Target As from the context menu. A
 regular Windows Save As dialogue appears and you go from there. You didn't
 say if you use a PC or a Mac so if it's the latter I unfortunately can't
 explain how you do this since I'm a PC/Windows user.

Re: Question regarding contacts

2013-01-04 Thread Garth Humphreys
When you say that the person you have deleted from contacts still exists in 
your messages app, do you mean that there message history still exists or that 
when you use the Add contact button they still appear there or finally that 
they still appear as an auto complete option in the To field.  I guess you 
are referring to them still appearing in the autocomplete list.  If so, I 
haven't looked into this for the messages app but it is probably similar to the 
mail app. With the mail app, there's no way to remove old email addresses from 
the autocomplete field. Thankfully though the list is sorted by  how frequently 
a particular address is used. I once had made a mistake in typing in an email 
address in the mail app and from that point forward, the mail app would offer 
this incorrectly spelt email address as an autocomplete option. I didn't 
realise it at first and used the incorrect address a few times. It took a while 
before this incorrect email address was deprecated in favour of the correctly 
entered one.

Hi Debbie

playing the most current episode 30 however I have uploaded an mp3 version of 
the file now and this should resolve the problem

Re: Episode 28 of iBlindTech - Pages Intro is out

2012-11-01 Thread Garth Humphreys
Absolutely, all please send your feedback to apple about the accessibility 
issues in Pages. The issue with renaming documents is one that I have been 
expecting to be fixed for a while now and the more people who complain about it 
the better. Having said this, the work around does work reliably enough for me 
for those rare occasions when I want to actually want to rename a document. 
The most reliable way I have found is to actually find the document you want to 
rename by moving yur finger on the screen an than keeping your finger on it 
while you toggle Voice Over off with your other hand. Once Voice Over goes off, 
lift your finger from the screen slightly and replace it for two seconds or so 
than you can remove your finger and toggle Voice Over back on. You should find 
yourself in the renaming field as I did on the Podcast.

Re: Restoring From iCloud

2012-10-24 Thread Garth Humphreys
You would see the backup of your phone during a restore of the phone or the 
setup of a new device on the same ID. So if you went to Settings, General Reset 
and chose to erase all data and settings,you would then need to setup the 
device again. During this process you should have the option to restore it from 
the iCloud backup. I am just giving you an example of when you would use the 
backup, not suggesting you do it :)

 It sounds like the tiniest piece of...plastic, or something...moving
 around inside the iPhone 5. I thought of taking it into my nearest
 Apple store, but the noise is so subtle that I know we won't be able
 to hear it in a crowded store. I also tend to worry about my new
 gadgets a little obsessively, so it may well be totally normal. The
 device, certainly, functions well.
 
 Does anyone have an iPhone 5 that doesn't make any sound when shaken?

Re: iPad mail question

2012-10-17 Thread Garth Humphreys
I think you are actually getting notifications from your notifications centre. 
Go into settings notifications Mail. Turn off alert style notifications for 
your favorites and For all email accounts.


Having mailset to fetch manually might actually make this worse. Because when 
you access your mail account it will then check for new mail and give you all 
the notifications at once.

 Denise,
 
 You cannot turn this off. The Mail app is setup as follows.
 On the left side you will have a list of mailboxes. Once you have 
 opened a mailbox that list becomes the list of messages. The right 
 2/3rds of the screen is the message content itself.
 Once you become familiar with this layout, you can make plowing 
 through mail very efficient.

Re: iPad mail question

2012-10-16 Thread Garth Humphreys
You've got me intrigued, I have not seen this behavior either. Does this happen 
in both landscape and portrait?
It sounds like some kind of notification have you got a Gmail app tthat 
notifies you. Or have you got selected contacts in the  notification centre?

iBlindTech 26 is out. iOS Customising

2012-10-16 Thread Garth Humphreys
This weeks episode takes a look at customising Voice Over on an iPad. I needed 
to do this because of the bug in iOS6 which can cause the loss of all Voice 
Over settings after performing a hard reboot. I had done this a number of times 
since updating to iOS 6 with no issues however when my iPad restarted with no 
Voice Over this time, I knew what the problem was. The one good thing is that 
it gave me the opportunity to do this podcast. I hope you find it helpful.

Re: Downcast - Is there a way to import mp3 file from Dropbox into Downcast?

2012-10-16 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Keith 

Out of interest, try totally clearing out your app switcher and restarting the 
phone prior to doing the export/import. It shouldn't really make a difference 
to the size of the file you can import to downcast but might be worth a try.

Re: Downcast - Is there a way to import mp3 file from Dropbox into Downcast?

2012-10-15 Thread Garth Humphreys
Sounds like you are doing everything properly. When I do this, and get to the 
point of tapping th the export button, it brings up a list of available apps 
including Downcast. All works well. Maybe its something to do with the size of 
the file. I have only imported shortish files in this manner, i.e. around 20Mb. 
This is just speculation though.

Re: Compact voice on iPad

2012-10-02 Thread Garth Humphreys
There was a strange bug with iOS 5 where the HQ voice was always the US voice 
Samantha. Even though you would have the default voice and region set to 
another one. With all the iPads I tested I found this same behaviour under iOS 
5 This was o all 3 generations of the iPad. It was weird i that even if you 
didn't have the US voice enabled for the rotor, the Use compact voice toggle 
would still appear in settings and would appear to do nothing. For me in 
Australia I had the default voice set to my own region but never was abled to 
get the HQ Karen voice. I was confused when I first got my new iPad because it 
seemed like the use compact toggle did nothing, than when I added the US vice 
to the rotor I noticed that it was this voice which was the HQ one.

Obviously the nature of the bug meant that those of you in the US would never 
have noticed this issue. 

In any case this bug has now been corrected under iOS6.  It was with delight 
that I got the HQ Karen voice on my iPad shortly after updating it.

 of why you might not get the HQ voice is because you are still on iOS 4.

 Hi,
  
 on the iPad, one always has the compact voice, as far as I know. How is that

 I have to know, because I want to buy one, only to have iOs5 hq voice.

There was a strange bug with iOS 5 where the HQ voice was always the US voice

another one. With all the iPads I tested I found this same behaviour under iOS 
5 This was o all 3 generations of the iPad. It was weird i that even if you 
didn't have the US voice enabled for the rotor, the Use compact voice toggle 
would still appear in settings and would appear to do nothing. For me in

  Then, I have no speach on my screen in case I get another call, want to

 When I tried making a call with voice over still on, Siri would say that she

 it get the best of me.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: Four Email Questions

2012-09-22 Thread Garth Humphreys
Yes, calendar is the same. That is you can add your gmail or windows live 
calendar to the list of available calendars on your device. This is the same 
with notes and contacts, etc. This can be really handy for instances where you 
want a shared calendar and a private calendar. For example I have my wives mail 
account on my phone but have her mail and contacts turned off. I have calendar 
turned on though and this way I can view whats happening for our family on her 
calendar. Your iCloud account also supports this of course. Each of the 
different services i.e. hotmail, gmail, iCloud and others support some or all 
of the features. In some cases like gmail, the available features will depend 
on whether you have it setup as exchange or with the gmail defaults.

One small correction Annomimouse, the ability to use this feature can be toggle 
on or off under settings. In the most recent update to Zello many users found 
the setting had been turned off and it needed to be re-enabled for the two 
finger double tap to be used again. This is done by turning on the Remote

 On Zello this is called the hands free feature. To use the hands free
 feature. All you need to do is the following. Use two fingers and double tap
 on the screen. You will now be in the hands free mode. Start speaking
 without having to leave your fingers on the screen. When finished. Just use
 your two fingers double tap to send the hands free mode.
 
 So there are no settings that you need to turn on to use this feature.

Re: Sluggish iPhone voice over

2012-09-17 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Reggie 

If you are finding that VO is just generally sluggish in various parts of your 
phone then this is not related in any way to the up coming iOS release. VO is 
not like Siri in that it doesn't need to check in with apple servers to provide 
feedback. I would recommend that you clear out your app switcher and then 
restart your phone by holding down the lock and home buttons for 10 seconds.

 Hello all, 
 Has anyone noticed in the last two days that voice over has become much more 
 sluggish? Is this because of the new version coming this week? I an going to 
 turn off my phone again to see is it helps, but does anybody have any further 
 thoughts on what I can do? It happens in email and focus for Facebook, so is 
 makes me think it might not be VO at all. Any thoughts welcome. Thanks. Just 
 saw the problem again reading post in Fleksy. Seems to be leaving out words 
 and then cutting in again with a sharp sort of voice as if someone has pushed 
 a button for her to talk in the middle of a word. Now not so sure of my 
 initial thought. Thanks for any help. Up to now, VO has never had a problem.

Re: zelo

2012-09-17 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Rob 

The setting is there. It is just called Remote Control. It needs to be turned 
on. It is under the heading Audio. All the settings are on one page under 
various headings. You will firstly find a heading called Audio Alerts. The 
setting you mentioned finding called Talk button up, is under this heading. 
Next there are a group of settings under the Heading Vibration and then further 
settings under Visual alerts and finally there is a heading called Audio. It is 
this last heading you are looking for. The option you want is the first setting 
under this heading and it's called remote control. When you have it toggle on, 
you will be able to use either the play pause button on your head phone 
controls too start and stop broadcasting or the two finger double tap that you 
initially asked about.

BTW the, talk button up, setting you mentioned finding controls whether or not 
you hear a beep when you stop broadcasting. 

 Anyone wanting to can add me to their contacts on Zello also. My handle is 
just iBlindTech. I have also setup an iBlindTech channel and I spend some time 
each day on the app. There is a good community of Blind and vision impaired 
tech enthusiasts developing on the various channels.

Episode 21 of iBlindTech is out, The Apple Blue Tooth Keyboard

2012-09-11 Thread Garth Humphreys
This weeks episode is a look at Apples BT Keyboard. I give a physical 
description, walk through of the available commands and features and finish by 
talking about how well the keyboard pairs with iOS devices. I covered most, if 
not all, the commands but please feel free to leave a comment on the site if 
you think of any I missed, there's bound to be one or two. I am planning to 
cover the specific keystrokes available when in editing mode in a future 
podcast as I only touched briefly on these here.

Episode 19 of iBlindTech - Creating and Syncing Ringtones

Hi All 

This is an episode I recorded quite some time ago however I hope you will still 
find it useful. It takes you through the making and syncing of a ringtone to 
your iPhone. The episode shows you how to take a track from your iTunes library 
and prepare it for use as a ringtone. There are a number of great applications 
for this however in this episode I show you how to do it just using iTunes.   

Thanks

Re: moving apps and made a mess--please help

2012-08-24 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Paul

The dock refers to the four apps at the bottom of your screen that stay the 
same no matter which page you are on. These are probably something like mail, 
safari phone and music.  Yu mentioned moving your finger up to move the apps 
from page to page. You need to move the apps left or right. Left to go towards 
page one and right to go to higher pages. 

You might find a couple of podcasts I did on moving apps useful. Episode 10 and 
11 discuss moving apps and the basics of folders. You can 
Click here to play Episode 10

 Hi Paul,

 dragging an app to the edge, which it sounds like you have already done.
 Now go to the last page, and drag one of the apps in the dock, at the bottom,

 Now find an app you want to move, and drag it into the dock. Now simply find 
 the page you want to move the app to and drag it out of the dock on to the

 Now repeat this until your iPhone is the way you want.
 Once all your apps are in the right position, drag the app that you took out

 BTW any page or folder you have created will disappear once it is empty.

Hello Fellow Television Fans:

A new version of the TV Guide app should be released within the next couple
of either days or weeks.  

While the new version has a different look and feel, it includes several new
features and added functionality that I will let you discover for yourself.
The best part is that it is marvelously VoiceOver accessible.  In fact, TV
Guide has gone out of their way to make sure that we, as blind and low
vision users, can enjoy the same functionality as our sighted counterparts.


And for you pucker-butts, I am not violating any NDAs in posting to the
list.  

The reason I am posting is to:

1.
Inform you that the new version of the App is VoiceOver ready; including the
setup and settings areas.

2.
Let you know that the new app has a new look and feel that may take a little
getting used to but is well worth the effort.

3.
If you like reviewing programming via the Favorite channels list, don't
worry, it's still there but in a slightly different location but with added
functionality.  

4.
Thanks to the programmers, now VoiceOver users can double tap on any channel
number in the general listings grid, to see only the day's listings for that
one particular channel Without having to add the channel to the Favorites
list.

5.
Let you know that the new version of the app will now let you save your
Favorite channels, shows, etc in the Cloud so you can access them on all
your iOS devices and the TV Guide website.  That's right.  Select your
Favorite channels and/or television shows complete with alerts, and have
them synchronized across all your iOS devices. 

6.
Encourage you to, once you've familiarize yourself with the new app, and
assuming that you enjoy it, go to the App store and give the app a good
review so that the people at TV Guide will know that we appreciate their
efforts.

As the saying goes, Stay Tuned.

Mark

Re: My Daily Thoughts.

2012-08-18 Thread Garth Humphreys
You can track all sorts of things in Daily Tracker. Another option which may 
not have been considered because it is marketed as more of a notes/list app is 
List Recorder.

You can use list recorder as a very effective diary. Just setup a folder for 
your diary and add entries as normal. The thing I like about it is that if you 
don't want to type much you could just put in an audio recording and just speak 
your entry.  

Sorry I haven't really followed this thread. Has anyone installed Day One on 
there Mac since the recent updates to both the iOS and Mac versions of the app? 
I bought both of these a while back as I wanted something that would sync 
between the two platforms. At the time the Mac version wasn't really that 
accessible or at least it certainly wasn't a pleasure to use.

Re: sharing contacts

2012-08-14 Thread Garth Humphreys
Sorry, must have missed the question. I have sent many contacts like this with 
no issues. The contact should just show up as a attachment on the email. 
Tapping on the attachment will import the contact into contacts. I have only 
had experience with this on iOS devices. I would assume that the attachments 
could be read by other OS's / mail clients however this is only an assumption.

 Hi, all,
 
 I use Braille and speech on my iPod, and I'm wondering how to go to a search 
 result on a same-page Google search. I can get as far as x matches on page, 
 and sometimes I hear speech saying something about the context of the word, 
 but never find it in Braille. I've tried enter, selector button, and router

Re: fleksey with the iPad

2012-08-11 Thread Garth Humphreys
Hi Jodie 

Whether apps appear upon your other devices automatically  is dependant upon 
your iTunes settings. If the Fleksy app isn't showing up on your iPad, you 
could just go to the app store on your iPad and download it. It may appear as 
though you are going to be purchasing it again but you won't be charged again.

Fwd: Dropbox file sharing

2012-08-11 Thread Garth Humphreys
Yep, but what's the easiest way to round trip a document you've edited in 
Pages. I mean you should be able to open it from the dropbox app but getting 
the edited version synced back to dropbox is a bit more problematic from 
memory. I haven't played with Pages for a while though. The round tripping is 
why I was thinking of apps which actually sync with dropbox. 
 
 Sorry, just reread my prior post - it was poorly worded, I didn't mean you 
 couldn't edit them at all, I was meaning in the dropbox context. Pages allows 
 a few ways of sharing documents but I don't remember any way of being able to 
 use the 'open in' action menu to put an edited copy back into dropbox. iCloud 
 is a different story though.

Re: The new Fleksy.

2012-08-10 Thread Garth Humphreys
Totally agree. 
The addition of direct touch was very welcome. The lack of it confused me when 
the app as was released. I guess they couldn't wait for all features before 
getting the app out. Also, I worked out an issue I was having with the app. It 
seemed to me that voice over would do silent and the app would stop working.. 
The problem was my phones case, it was hanging to close to the sensor. 

Absolutely love the app now.

Where you haven't been able to work out the full series to programme or just

 Hi,
 
 With an iPhone, how does one go about entering numeric keypad responses
 to navigate within  an automated system?
 
 I've heard one can use a comma after the phone number. The comma
 introduces a pause; several commas produce a longer pause.
 
 But not all automated systems are one layer deep, and some require a
 fair degree of interactivity within the system before one knows which is
 the desired numeric response, or series of responses.
 
 Thanks in advance for any insight.
 
 Keith

Re: Dropbox file sharing

2012-08-10 Thread Garth Humphreys
You'll need another app for editing. Also I don't know of any apps which will 
allow accessible editing of Word docs. If you want to edit on the IOS device, 
you can use rich text with some apps but you are best to go for plain text an 
than there are hundreds of apps which will sync with dropbox and allow 
accessible editing. My personal fav is Elements but there are a few free ones 
as well.

 I will try to explain this better.  I have Dropbox on the PC and IPad.
 My documents are saved as Office documents.  Can I read them on my
 IPad with VO or do I need to save them in another format?

Re: Need an Iphone 3gs podcasts with IOS5 and voiceover

Hi Bhavesh

It sounds like the 4s you played with had the mute switched on. iOS works the 
same on all the phones.  The only difference maybe in the responsiveness
