Since upgrading my I-Phone to IOS 7, Music Dock no longer plays?

2014-01-14 Thread Grant Downey
I have been digging around for an answer and solution to this aggravating
question. I've uninstalled Sirius XM and reinstalled, My account is in good
standing. I liked Music dock because it was wonderfully accessible. 

 

Yes, I can get the Sirius XM app to work, but, it is much more difficult to
use. Any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated.

 

Anyone else experiencing this issue? Anyone have a solution? 

 

Thanks,

Grant Downey

I have had the same issue. The app is not in updates in the Ap Store and when I 
did  search for it, the only newsline app was the original one from June.

it was not there.

 We are pleased to announce that NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App 2.0 is now in the
 Apple App Store for you to download. We have made several improvements and
 smoothed out some of the bugs that appeared after the iOS 6.0 update was
 released by Apple. Now you should have a better user experience and access
 to some of the other information provided by NFB-NEWSLINE®.

 Now you can receive your emergency weather alerts right on your iPhone 
 with
 the NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App. If there is a weather alert for your area,
 and your address and zip code is up to date on your NFB-NEWSLINE® account,
 you will hear a message saying weather alert  when you launch your
 NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile app, and you will feel your iPhone vibrate. Just
 double tap on the weather alert button when you hear the alert, and you 
 can
 read the entire weather alert on your iPhone. Please keep in mind that 
 only
 the iPhone will vibrate, since only the iPhone has the built-in vibration
 motor. Those of you running the NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App on an iPad or an
 iPod will only receive the voice alert without the vibration. If you want 
 to
 get just the vibration alert without the voice alert, you can turn off the
 voice alert for weather alerts in the settings menu. If you need to update
 your address and zip code, you can call 1-866-504-7300, or e-mail
 nfbnewsline-...@nfb.org.

 We have also added a Messages section, so that you may read the latest
 announcements and information that we post on NFB-NEWSLINE®. We put up
 messages from time to time to inform our subscribers about latest
 enhancements and changes to NFB-NEWSLINE®, and these can be read from the
 Messages section in the NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App. The Messages button will
 appear under the welcome message on your home screen. Please note that
 messages will only appear if you have active Internet service through a
 Wi-Fi connection or your mobile carrier. You can also read more 
 extensively
 about these new changes and enhancements to NFB-NEWSLINE® in the Messages
 section.

 We have made other small improvements and changes to the NFB-NEWSLINE®
 Mobile App that will enhance your user experience. For example, now you 
 can
 update your subscriptions in the subscriptions section without any 
 problems,
 and the jump to channel on-screen keyboard in the TV listings has been
 improved so that now you get the numeric keypad when typing in a channel
 number instead of the full QWERTY keyboard.

 Once again, we would like to remind you that we have added two new
 publications in a new category labeled Breaking News Online. These are the
 Huffington Post, a very well-known online site, and CNN, which is part of
 Turner Broadcasting System 's cable news network.

 The Breaking News Online category can be found by first selecting the
 Publications button off the home screen of the app, and then selecting
 Publication Options toward the bottom of the screen. Finally, select the
 Publication Groups button to see a list of available groups including the
 new Breaking News Online category. Optionally, to add the online breaking
 news publications to your favorites list or your subscriptions list on the
 NFB-NEWSLINE® App, just go to Settings, and then select either Manage
 Favorites or Manage Subscriptions, depending on which you want to add it 
 to,
 then select either the Add to Favorites button at the bottom of the 
 screen,
 or the Add to Subscriptions button, and pick the publication that you want
 to add from the list.

 In order to update your NFB-NEWSLINE® App, just go to the App store, then
 to the Updates tab, and you should see NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile as one of the
 applications listed as ready to update. Select the update button, and it
 should start

Yes, plug your phone into the computer.

In the sources tree go to your phone.

The summary tab should be selected by default.

Tab until you get to a button that says Configure Universal Access.

Hit enter or the space bar on that button.

You will have a few things there, make sure VoiceOver is checked and hit OK.

That should get it turned back on.

Then, if that works, go to Settings, General,  accessibility, and make sure
to set the Triple click home to toggle VoiceOver.

It sounds like that got turned off somehow.

 

HTH,

Richard

Subject: Loss of Voice-over after installing IOS6

Hi All,

 

After installing IOS6, I thought all went well until! I've completely lost
Voice-over somehow. I've tried triple click home, rebooting the I-phone,  to
no avail. The phone appears to be working as I can use Seri but it is in a
low grade voice, nothing like I had before. 

 

I am totally blind and have no sighted help readily available. Is there a
way that Voice-Over can be turned back on through I-Tunes? Step by step
instructions please. 

 

This is the first time I've lost Voice-over where the usual remedies have
not worked at all.

 

Thanks in Advance for any assistance.

 

Grant Downey
