Siri as seen on TV?

2013-03-31 Thread Mark BurningHawk
When I woke up and turned over in bed and asked Siri what the weather was like, 
she said, You said, What's the weather like? and then she told me, which was 
good because it was raining and my chicken was ill.  But, is there a way that I 
can just have her answer me, without telling me what I said?  LIke the 
commercials on TV, where she just comes back with the snappy response.  It's 
sort of anticlimactic if she repeats back to me what I said.  Way to cut out 
this part?
Thanks. :)

Re: my Sprint Iphone 5 is in my hand! + syncing apps between two I devices?

2013-03-29 Thread Mark BurningHawk
As a caveat to the above waste of everyone's time (sorry), I have a real 
question, and that is:  I have bought apps for my Ipad 3, which I can 
presumably use on my Iphone 5.  I've backed both up to my Mac, but how do I, or 
can I, transfer apps that I've already got from pad to phone or vice versa?  
Seems like a device backup only shares the apps you installed on that device, 
but if I have a pedometer app on my Ipad, the same one would work even better 
on my Iphone.

Thanks! I'm sure I'll have lots more questions; I can't keep my hands off this 
thing…

making Skype work on Cell data + changing my subscription to a different E-mail account

2013-03-29 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, listers:

First, how do I make apps like Skype work over cellular data?  Do I need an app 
to make myself a hot spot?  I have unlimited data, mostly 3G with some 4G LTD 
coverage, ought to be good enough for at least voice calls, if not video.

Second, I need to change my subscription from my ATT mail account to my Gmail 
account, where all my other lists are.  How does this happen?

Thanks so much!

my Sprint Iphone 5 is in my hand!

Somehow, very quickly, my Iphone 5 #@G is here, and I'm about to call Sprint

to press something on the screen to confirm, and if so, can I turn on VoiceOver 
with a triple-click of the home button so that I can follow along?  What do I 
need to know to activate this phone while on another phone with Sprint?

What is important is that I was able to turn on VoiceOver while talking to the 
Sprint activater person.  They wanted me to read a 14-digit code number off the

activate the phone with no problems. I'm really psyched now.

Getting an Iphone 5 on the Sprint network

2013-03-27 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, listers!

At last, the inevitable has finally happened, and I'm getting an Iphone 5 32G 
(black [of course]) locked on the Sprint network.  The customer rep told me 
that it'd have just enough battery life to let them change its number and 
connect it, once I called customer care with my old phone.

My question is, once I take it out of the package and put it into its new 
Otterbox Defender case home, how should I proceed? Should I turn on VO with a 
triple-click home button, or should I let Sprint ping it and log it in or 
whatever first?  What to expect is always good to know.

Thanks!

Clarification re: Announcing the new GPS APP Etc.

2013-02-28 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Bit of clarification here:

 • I know nothing at all about anything to do with Garmin and Seeing Eye or any 
partnership either of them may have attempted to make with anyone.  My question 
was a purely theoretical one:  What if, as Neal Barnfather excellently points 
out, certain blind-user-specific features were added to an existing GPS 
framework?  Wouldn't the cost offset be much more mild, spread across a greater 
market base?  I then went on to say that this would have the added advantage of 
further eroding the barriers between blind and sighted computer users, and 
maybe even blind and sighted people in general.  I never once implied that this 
had already been tried and failed; I simply don't know, and it's beyond the 
scope of my intent.  
 • At no time did I ever once say that you should *NOT* use a product simply 
because it's a blind ghetto, thing or not.  I've got a Trekker Maestro which, 
in its hayday, I loved.  I'll have every conceivable GPS app on my I device, 
regardless of politics and only bounded by cost.  I'm not that kind of radical. 
:)
 • I love bullets.
 • That is all.
 • Really.

I wonder if you could just video-call a pet eye person and ask them what's on 
the screen, just by pointing the phone at the monitor.

I've used Skype video calls to help me get numbers off new credit cards for 
verification purposes, and in one memorable vacation, used a plant cam, 
set-up with the AIM video-chat feature to help take care of a friend's garden 
in Maine, while she and her husband were on honey-moon.  I'm familiar with the 
move it to the left, little right, up a bit, now down, down, down left… left… 
syndrome. :)  We didn't have time to rig an independent mobile arm for the 
camera.

Re: Announcing the Seeing Eye GPS app free preview, new 2013 Sendero products, and remote CSUN access!

2013-02-27 Thread Mark BurningHawk
I hope to get an Iphone with Sprint as my carrier, and hope to have it some 
time in the next two weeks. After that, you can bet Im going to test every GPS 
app around, including this one.

Maybe what we should be asking ourselves here is not whether this is a ghetto 
product, for the blind, but whether there's universal access built into it, so 
that sighted people would use it and find it valuable as well? Then, the 
question becomes not how much can a blind person afford, but rather, What is 
the fair market value for this app, based on a general market?  It seems to me 
that, even as we demand shrilly that Apple and other companies build in 
universal access to their products, so should Sendero or whatever other ghetto 
of the blind, products come out build in universal access.  Let's depolarize 
this argument.

This is my point; if Sendero is smart, they'll built an app that EVERYONE will 
want, even if blind people most of all, and then they can charge less for it, 
reaching a broader market. Supply and demand.

2013-02-27 Thread Mark BurningHawk
I guess that's a theoretical question, then:  If Sendero made their app 
prettier, more visually appealing, more eye candy, with maps and whatever, 
would it cost too much in terms of labor and drive even the fair market price 
up, or would it drive the price up to target an app for a backwater, splinter 
market like the blind Iphone users?  I have no hard answer to this, just 
curious.

Re: Announcing the Seeing Eye GPS app free preview, new 2013 Sendero products, and remote CSUN access!

2013-02-27 Thread Mark BurningHawk
So it would still make more sense to partner with a company who makes such a 
silent, visually appealing app, and piggy-back a Sendero type level of verbal 
interaction at the user's command.  This, after all, is what VoiceOver does to 
the native IOS when it's invoked.  Then, this amortization thing you speak of 
can be spread not only over a wider customer base but over two companies' 
resources.  The problem with a product that costs significantly higher because 
it's targeted primarily toward blind people … Okay, let me start that again…  
*another* problem with this approach is that there are agencies and the like 
with deep pockets who will justify such a purchase in their rehab or other 
budgets, which keeps up the barrier between the blind and the world at large.  
I see a win-win for Sendero to partner with a more conventionally familiar 
name, I.E. Garnin or someone, or even with the Apple Maps app, provide their 
product as an option when wanted, and at a significantly lower cost to 
everyone.  Will I get it and all the maps I need when it comes out?  Most 
likely, unless it's off the scale.  I personally hope at least one , or 
home, map comes free with it, or perhaps a set, one from each map source.  
But making the price too high might not be as damaging as making the target 
user base too small.  Reinventing the wheel seems a bit redundant, if you'll 
allow me to repeat myself a little bit one more time again.

Re: Announcing the Seeing Eye GPS app free preview, new 2013 Sendero products, and remote CSUN access!

2013-02-27 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Wow. well, thanks for making it personal, there.  Appreciate that, but not so 
much.  What *I* personally have a problem with, since you brought it up, is 
anything that raises the barriers that sight imposes between blind and sighted 
persons, instead of lowering them or making that barrier meaningless.  If this 
is a white cane versus a black or tan or whatever cane, fine.  If it a GPS app 
that has a cheaper price but has a sub-level for blind people, designed by 
blind people, then I think that's a better way to go than reinventing the wheel 
of GPS apps for the blind, charging them and only them or their agencies more, 
and relegating the blind to their own separate portion of the market.  Apple 
has shown by example that this is not necessarily the result for blind people 
who use technology.  Many sighted companies--certain US-based airlines spring 
to mind--merge to provide a more complete range of services--why couldn't this 
be a more feasible approach to a GPS app that is universally accessible?  The 
same argument you use when you say that one company making devices universally 
accessible does not make the industry standard, is used all the time to keep 
whole countries from going green, by switching to alternative energy sources. 
 

As for your comparison to canes, I guess you haven't been to any page selling 
canes or their accessories lately--if so, you'll find a large list of said 
accessories visually designed for matching with your shoes, hand-bag, golf bag, 
whatever. And, just to clear this up, I'm a 23-year veteran with four guide 
dogs' lives worth of service to my credit, I've lived all over the US in every 
conceivable environmental and mobility situation.  I'm just very lucky to be a 
basic black, wearing type individual, so I haven't had to accessorize my 
black lab much.  Oh, and they have tons of guide dog harness accessories, not 
to mention the usual run of silly doggie booties and sweaters and the lot.  

You say that Some things are just better when they are done with the blind 
person in mind, I have to ask, Who is doing these things? a sighted 
overlord?  Things done with me in mind have almost killed me too many times to 
count, sir, and if you must know, it is things done with me and my good in mind 
that I have a huge objection to.  So should every thinking person.

pedometer or distance traveled meter for Ipad?

2013-02-24 Thread Mark BurningHawk
I have an Ipad 3 32G running the latest IOS for Ipad.  I know GPS is 
nonexistent for this unit, and I agree it would probably be impractical, but 
since apps that are pedometers or odometers, measuring distance traveled 
irrespective of global position, might there be such a thing for my Ipad 3?  I 
could set it, lock the screen, stow the Pad in my backpack and then just walk, 
and when I unlocked the screen, I'd have a distance traveled, say, 3.5 miles or 
1.3 KM?  

And, rejoice, rejoice, I will be getting my Iphone in March. *bounce!* YAY

I do not have the problem of receiving old messages on the Mac; it doesn't show

getting to newer stuff.  That's why it's annoying; were it not for this 
behavior, I wouldn't even know old messages were stored there.  In 2011 or so, 
I discovered that Gmail had kept all messages since the inception of my Gmail

I just figured Clwyd was good, but I didn't wanna delete it for fear of the 
subject not being recognized any more. :) I kinda like the way it sounds now… 
Clwyd … nyah.

What happens is that my Ipad 3 will download, 50 at a time, all 10,000 messages 
or however many there are, *BEFORE* showing me any message older than, say, 
2011.  I understand that, in your world, you'll see a message from, say, today, 
*before* you see 49 other messages from 2011, but in my world, the laws are 
apparently different.  Thus, Gmail on my Ipad is useless to me until I tell it, 
HEY! Don't download messages that have already been gotten! Which, as above, 
I do not know how to do.  I know for a fact that my Ipad will not show me new 
or current Gmail messages first because I've tested it by shutting down my MBP, 
my main computer, and then later going and grabbing mail with it which shows me 
Gmail with time stamps from within the period at which I was using my Ipad to 
go through mail.  Thus, if you send me a message on my Gmail today, and I am 
limited to my Ipad for mail access, I will be up late at night three days later 
still trying to see what it was you sent to me.  My MBP uses POP for Gmail, 
though I do remember setting up the account for IMAP on the site.  It has been 
suggested that changing to IMAP might help with this Gmail deletion dilemma 
upon whose horns I squirm, but then it's also been related that it will *NOT* 
help.  Forgive me if Im a bit confused. *grin*

Ipad 3 speakers not playing out loud, only throug headset, sorta

2013-01-30 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Until now, I've only ever played VoiceOver through my Ipad 3's external 
speakers.  I've used it to stream TV and play other music through the headset 
jack, but never played music or TV out loud.  Today, I tried to hear a TV 
stream through my Ipad's speakers, but heard nothing *EXCEPT* VoiceOver.  VO 
was audible, but the stream content was not.  When I plugged the headset back 
in, I still couldn't hear anything except VoiceOver; the media stream was muted.

What's going on here?
Thanks. :)

What I have found out is that, if I start with the Ipad speakers playing, a

Skype On-screen keyboard for Ipad (IOS6.1) 3

2013-01-30 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Has anyone noticed that the on-screen keyboard for Skype's IM field is a weird, 
sort of squished shape, on the screen of the Ipad 3?  Is there a way to make it 
normal, where the keyboard is stretched along the bottom of the screen?  
Entering full screen doesn't do this.  Thanks.

saving documents attached to mail in IOS6.1

2013-01-29 Thread Mark BurningHawk
I sent me a bunch of documents I wanted on my Ipad to my Ipad's Icloud account. 
 They got there, but when I double-tap on the button in the message body, I get 
one choice--Email, button. I don't want to mail them anywhere; I want to save 
them on the pad.  How exactly do I do this, which leads to the related 
question, where are documents, files, etc., stored on an Ipad 3?  I've seen no 
evidence of a directory tree structure, other an an empty newsstand folder on 
my home screen.

worrisome behavior of Ipad 3 after attempted update to 6.1

2013-01-28 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi all:

I turned on my Ipad, got the software update message, clicked Install and hit 
the I Agree button.  It did its thing, VoiceOver came on, said, Ipad, image.  
Then, the only other thing I could elicit, other than the status bar, were 
different languages, some of which VoiceOver couldn't pronounced.  
Double-tapping on the Ipad image (English version) did nothing.  My screen 
locks up almost immediately, and though I can unlock it with a single tap of 
the home button, I get the same, very restricted behavior.

My question is, is this normal?  How long should the update take?  It's been a 
good ten minutes or so that my Ipad 3 has been like this.  When I tried to shut 
it down, the shut-down routine didn't happen.  

So.  What should I expect here?
Thanks. :)

App Switcher confusion

2013-01-26 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi.  Thanks to all who've been so helpful thus far as I fall in love with my 
new Ipad.  So, I don't understand App Switcher.

I have a few apps in App Switcher which appear to be running in the background, 
such as Music, which don't need to be there.  I was told to double tap and hold 
on one of these; when I do, it says Editing app.  I must be missing a step at 
this point, because if I   dismiss App Switcher and re-launch it, the app is 
still there.  So, what's the step I'm missing here?

Conversely, sometimes, if I launch an app from the home screen, it does *NOT* 
appear in App Switcher, even though I want it to.

Thus the subject line.  Thanks for clarification. *bow*

Re: App Switcher confusion

2013-01-26 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Okay, so let's say I dismiss all my apps from App Switcher. That means they're 
all shut down?  But, things that don't seem to take up much resources like 
FaceBook, Twitter, Skype, the AIM client, …  They can just stay waiting for 
Push notifications, and will be in the app switcher.

Here's an interesting thing:  There's a four-fingered swipe gesture that 
switches you to the next app in the queue.  However, sometimes, when I did that 
swipe, I heard the cutest little child-like voice saying what I thought was 
app Switcher, or maybe I was just hallucinating.  How does one refine this 
four-fingered swipe to rapidly switch applications?

Re: App Switcher confusion

2013-01-26 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, Teresa.

Thanks for the tips on the App Switcher; think I got a handle on it, as in 
earlier posts.

No, this is a four-finger swipe to the left or right from within an app itself. 
 If you do it right, it'll say Switching to, and then whatever the next or 
previous app in your queue is.  If you do it wrong, it gives you a kind of high 
whimpering noise which I find rather amusing.  A three-fingered flick doesn't 
do this.  Quite handy to switch back and forth between my messenger clients.

Fine, but I don't see a way to set up Gmail as IMAP in Mac Mail.  I'd probably 
have to delete the account and re-add it.

When I go to Accessibility / VO and activate the rotor button, I can check or

2013-01-22 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Well,  before I mail anything to the Pad, even though I've made huge 
breakthroughs with Mail and will probably end up liking it more than Mac 
Mail--looks to be even faster--I need to clear out about a year and a half's 
worth of old mail from Gmail, which refuses to delete anything despite all 
attempts.  *grin*  I haven't seen an app yet on the Ipad 3 with latest IOS to 
do either word processing or note taking (other than Notes, of course), so will 
need to grab that, and also need to understand how to build a folder structure 
on the Home screen and move things where I want them; as it is now, it's a bit 
chaotic for my tastes…

no delete button for selected messages?

2013-01-21 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, folks. 

I've made a huge breakthrough in Mail, and with the Edit button and sliding 
down the column, split-tapping as I go, I can now select however many messages 
are in the window--about 18-20 before I reach the bottom of the screen.  (Is 
there a way to scroll this list down without acting on it?)  However, once all 
my messages are selected, I do NOT find a Delete, button.  Closest I get is 
archive.  Also, the rotor still wants to switch me between containers, lines, 
words, characters; there is no Action setting.  But, this is amazingly simple 
now I've got it down.

Re: syncing Ipad with MBP15 continued.

2013-01-20 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, David.

I told both Gmail on the server (I think) and Mail on the Mac to delete copies 
of messages from the server after download, but no one ever listens. :)  So, 
yes, I'll have to slay this particular hydra as well.  I seem to be 
consistently having a problem with the Slide one finger up or down, gesture.  
I think it's being confused with my swipe.  There's an adjustable page scroll 
spot on my home screen that I cannot seem to slide up or down to change 
value, but can split-tape it.  Same thing with my double tap and hold, 
gesture; when switching the keyboard between letters and numbers or symbols, 
When I double-tap the more, spot, it'll say, more, numbers, then I have to 
double tap and hold again to get the numbers to actually appear.  It's almost 
three gestures in one just to switch the keyboard map.  When I slide up or down 
to change a value, Vo seems to interpret this as a swipe or two-finger flick-up 
and starts reading the whole screen.  Every time I check the rotor, it's set to 
containers.  So, maybe I need to refine my gestures a bit more.  But, I've 
taken this thing out of the boxes and am now up to using Skype, so I'll get the 
rest; I look forward to playing with it.

Re: syncing Ipad with MBP15 continued.

2013-01-20 Thread Mark BurningHawk
For the moment, I'musing standard typing.  I'll switch to touch typing 
eventually, but for now I like to split-tap when I am sure I've got the letter 
I want.  I'm not slow, I have a hearing loss, and I have like eight passwords 
that NEED to be entered correctly or else all sorts of cluster arrangements 
will occur.  So, if I split tap on the More, numbers, button, I hear a faint 
click, but the keyboard is still the same.  If I touch more, numbers, then 
lift up, double tap and hold, I hear a different noise which is a three-tone 
noise, which means to me the keyboard has changed, and sure enough, it has.  
I'm not sure what Im doing here that's nonstandard.

And, no, I'm sorry, but there are no other fingers accidentally touching the 
screen; this was the first habit I cured myself of a long time ago.  No, I 
think perhaps there's some misinterpretation involved when the IOS says Slide 
up or down to change the value, but Voiceover says double tap to change the 
value.  I'm wondering if this is a similar occurrence to when I power down the 
Ipad and VO says slide to power off, but what is needed is a double-tap 
there.  In the case of the sliding up or down, it's important if I want to 
slide my way through a message list, for example, and split-tap to select for 
deletion when I've pressed the edit button.

Once I figure an efficient, fast way to sort through Mail, I'll be able to 
start using my pad for just about everything I use my laptop for. Already.

Ipad 3 and the hearing aids, button in settings

2013-01-20 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, listers:

This morning, while playing with Settings, in Accessibility, I clicked a 
hearing aids, button.  Ipad began searching for devices.  I assumed it was 
searching for something like my Icom, a streamer box for my hearing aids, so I 
quickly put it into pairing mode, but they didn't find one another.

Is this a bad guess on my part, and if so, what does this actually do?

Curious:

syncing Ipad with MBP15 continued.

2013-01-18 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, folks:

Thanks to all who've been very helpful to me so far in learning the Ipad 3.  
Today, I charged it via the USB cable to my MBP15, and it came up in Itunes 
just as it should.  I authorized backup over WIFI now, too, so the hard 
connection won't be necessary.

Now,  I understand that the Ipad was backed up to my computer (Though I cannot 
find this backup anywhere through Finder).  What I wanted to do, however, 
though, was sync all my contacts from the MTP 8ONTO* the Ipad, so that it would 
know all my mail addresses, etc.  I have no evidence this was done, or that it 
can be done.

Also, I'm having a hard time making Mail perform in a way I understand.  For 
one thing, Gmail insists on showing me messages from June, 2011!, which I can 
deal with, but I cannot figure out how to move quickly between messages, either 
in list or in body (I'd prefer to navigate by the regard,ing, subject line 
column), and I don't understand how to select all and delete them from my Inbox 
when I'm dong.  

Is there a podcast I can inhale on how Mail works in IOS6?  

My last question would be how to get audio books or music from the Macbook ONTO 
the Pad, assumedly through Itunes, manually? I have 86GB of music and only 27GB 
free on the Ipad. :)

Thanks, all!

Want to syn just contacts between new Ipad 3 and Mbp15.

2013-01-17 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Do I have to do these things through Itunes?  I haven't set it up on the Pad 
yet, but my MBP uses Itunes all the time.  I want to sync my FB, Twitter, and 
Mail contacts, and have already dded both Gmail and Icloud accounts to my pad's 
mail.

I also have a bunch of questions about more efficient ways to scan down a long 
list of messages in Mail on the Pad.  Does the next message, button delete or 
archive the message? Is there a way to just swipe down and hear just the 
subject lines, and what's the equivalent of VO J, to jump to the message 
body? is this all done just by touching different areas, and a matter of muscle 
memory to remember which location things are on the screen?

This is fun!

field, I can't get *OUT* of that text field to the next form control.  The only 
way to do this is for me to find it on the screen and split-tap on it to move 
the insertion point to it.  Is there an easier way? I was playing around with 
the rotor to see if it could take me between form controls but am not having 
much joy that way.

Also, yes, you're right, it's 5GB, not 5MB of storage.  I set my MBP to clear 
messages off the Gmail server once they're down, so I hope Gmail doesn't just 
spam me with 2 and some years of old messages.  However, what I cannot figure 
out how to do is sync my new Ipad with my old MBP15's contacts--Email, FB, 
Twitter, etc.  Also, I'm looking for a quicker way to go through messages and 
delete them from the Inbox in Mail on the Pad…
So many questions!

My experience is that a right and left finger flick does not move through the 
list of messages; I wish it did, I may have done it wrong.  I'm careful to keep 
it in portrait, and looked at autorotation lock but didn't turn it on.  There 
are some things which landscape will be useful for, especially if my sighted 
friends want to watch videos or use Maps or whatever.

Re: cannot for the life of me find the @ sign...

Where is this Done button? I have never found such a beast, and wish I had.  
Also, though I have an Icloud account activated on my MBP15 and my Pad, I 
cannot figure out how to Tel Itunes on my MBP to back up anything to the cloud 
and, as I say, I have way too much music, and only want to back up contacts and 
documents to the pad until I figure out how to manually add stuff to it.  I 
guess I have to turn on Itunes on the Pad before I can do any of this.

Yes, I spent some time in the VO practice area, I remember you suggested this a 
while ago when I was practicing on another Pad--this one is now mine, so am 
setting it up from the box, literally.I don't know why a horizontal finger 
flick does not take me through the message list as you say it should, unless I 
need to split-tap on the list to interact or select with it.

Oh, I didn't think of using the USB cable; I thought I could do it via 
Bluetooth or their shared networks.  I don't see an Ipad section, in Itunes 
on my MBP currently.  Thanks a lot; I'll probably have more questions tomorrow 
when I have time to play with this more.

Update on the at sign + new Ipad 3 thread

2013-01-16 Thread Mark BurningHawk
Hi, everyone who's chimed in on my Ipad thread.

First, thanks to those whose consensus gave me a good place to look for the @ 
sign I need to complete my Apple ID.  Unfortunately, I still haven't found it.  
:)  That's okay, I have to work this project in with the other things I try to 
juggle without crying over spilt milk too much.

Second, this Ipad has Siri, and I'd love to find a way to tell Siri what my 
Apple ID and password are, but that doesn't seem to be an option.  Or, is it?

I'll have more to say about this later, Im sure.  Thanks again, though.  Yall 
rock, yo

Thanks, Sieghard:
Thanks for this; I haven't tweaked VO's settings yet, so it's on the beginner 
settings, highest verbosity, unfortunately.  Thus, as it is now, split-tap is 
not enabled, and you have to tap twice to enter a character into the text 
field.  Going to have to fix this sooner than later.

Well, okay, maybe you can then tell me how to turn off Split keyboard?  I did a 
gesture that turned it off, now the message body of a new mail message is 
protruding between my keyboard halves. :)  Found the At sign though! *grin*

No, I turned on Split keyboard, because I heard it say Split Keyboard On.  
It's not the screen, it's the keyboard itself which has been squished over to 
the left and right to make way for the message body. There's a gesture to get 
rid of it.

Please excuse me, Monni, I *LIKE* split *TAP*.  I am annoyed by the split 
keyboard on the bottom of my screen.  I want it to be all one keyboard; I don't 
care if the screen is split, with the settings and other junk on the left and 
the relevant app taking up center and right. *grin* I want to know what gesture 
I used to turn split keyboard on; in fact, I want a comprehensive list of 
gestures and what they do and how to do that Live long and prosper, thing…

Can you tell me how I turned it on in the first place? The keyboard was NOT 
split for the longest time while I was setting up Cloud Mail, and then it 
turned on; any idea how that happened?
