Re: Creating email folders within the iPhone
Hi, open Mail. Choose the Back button until you are at the main list of mailboxes. Choose Edit at the top corner. Now, at the bottom of the screen, choose new folder. In the edit field, give it a name. Swipe to an unlabeled button and tap that to choose the location of this folder. That should do it. All you have to do now is choose Done to go back to the so-called normal mode. I hope this helps. Raul A.

Re: Audio description on CBS all access using iPhone or Apple TV
Hi, when you bring up the episode, you have to go into the Settings button while the show is playing. Sometimes this means double tapping the screen in an empty area so the player controls will come up. Once you choose Settings, you will find the audio. On my iPad Pro, it's labeled as English AD. Double tap that and now when you play the show, it will be described. I have found that the setting sticks mostly, however in case not, simply repeat the steps and it will work. In my case, the setting reverted after 2 episodes, but putting it back was a snap. I only wish that CBS would have done the same for the Amazon and the Android apps considering that I have an Amazon Edition television with my Sonos system and I also have a few Android devices. Good luck. On 2/22/2020 8:57 PM, Mary Otten wrote: Has anyone had success finding how to access audio description in the CBS all axis app on either your iPhone or your Apple TV?

Certain displays may have hardware controls, like the Focus series or the Braille Edge, but even if you have no hardware buttons on your display, you should be able to perform most actions/gestures with the universal Braille commands. In other words, if I learn the commands to use my Focus 14 Blue display with the iPhone, I can then pick up a display from a different manufacturer and use the same Braille commands.

moderator message - was: Re: Minnesota Radio Talking Book Network
Good morning all. Maybe the fact that the coffee has not worked its way through my system yet will determine the tone of this message. However lately there has been a lot of one line messages sent to the list. Also the message below is clearly sent via member who has self appointed himself as a moderator. Unless the list owner, Cara Quinn has made a list change without my knowing it, she and I are the only ones who are the moderators for this list. So if you are a list member and you see a post which you do not agree with please do not sell for pointer self as moderator. Instead you can do one of the following, either ignore the message and move on with life, or forward that message to me or to Cara and we will take care of it. This list is very high traffic, and I work full-time. This means I do not have the luxury of monitoring the list on a daily basis. So if I continue to see this kind of behavior, I will simply remove the offending member's posting privileges.

RE: Problem Running Braille Display with iOS 8.2
Well, I would agree fully if it was true for all displays, but that's not the case. Right now the worst ones to use to write on are the Humanware ones. I also don't have the best experience with the HIMS Braille Edge, but at least it takes it a while longer before it gets weird. Right now the Focus Blue from Freedom Scientific seems to handle things the best. At least the ones I have access to, it's the best so far. No delays, and it just works all around. I only wish I could reverse the panning buttons on the front, but that's more of a Freedom Scientific thing I suspect. -- Raul A.

Re: Whose ordering the Apple watch?
Hi. At the risk of sounding like a me too message, I must fully agree with Rick's reasons for getting an Apple Watch. However what I'm going to do is wait for my birthday in July. This will accomplish two things. 1, I'll see how it trends, problems and solutions people have. 2, it will give people time to consider pulling together for that cool birthday gift since I'll be 42, and as we all know, that's the answer to life, the universe, and everything. *smile*.

I look forward to not having to take my phone off of my belt case every time a notification comes in and getting haptec alerts on my wrist. 3. I also look forward to being able to read and reply to text messages via the watch again without having to fumble for my phone. 4.

I think it's really a matter of convenience. I do agree however that it won't be for everyone and the things that appeal to me might be a turn off for others. My only concern is that it's a 1.0 product and I think we all know how that could go but again the geek in me says go for it Dude!

I have removed both apps from the app switcher and restarted them, and have rebooted the phone. I restored it from the backup of my other phone, but I wonder if something is wrong with this phone, being that it seems to be a problem with the adjustable sliders, not a specific app. This is not starting out well with my new phone.

This happened spontaneously after 2 days of selling the product and as a results I saw sales drop significantly. This complicates the shopping experience for the blind and visually impaired. I contacted Amazon and I was informed that the algorithm that runs the site changed the button, no further explanation was given. I asked to change it back for this particular product because the change makes it difficult to order the stand and I was told that they will see what they can do.

Oh yes, I've had this issue, and it's a major one for me. In fact, I'm in the process of writing an article about this. I suspect, but can't confirm, that this feature was designed to allow a person to immediately see what they have typed, before it goes to the translator. Which is fine, I guess, if you're not confident in your braille typing, but it would be nice if this feature could be turned off so that it would go back to the old way of braille keyboard input.

And it used to not do that, it used to go directly to the reading window. Therefore, I can never get back to the place that I was at, because I have to actually dot 4-chord to the Reading window, thereby having to start all the way at the beginning.

RE: APPLE MAPS OR GOOGLE MAPS
Hi, I have the Google Now app and use it a lot more than Siri actually. With the Google Now app it has a voice search and you can easily get directions.

Re: iTunes and latest version of Window Eyes
Not only that, but if Charles wanted to get that technical, he should have also changed window eyes to Window-Eyes. I think the Charles is assuming that everyone uses the mix capitalization feature that many screen readers use as a default. What this means is that when it is a lowercase I followed by an uppercase letter, it will separate the word in the way it pronounces it by an extra syllable. Hence iTunes and itunes. However, all of this to say that if anyone search is the archives, they will not miss finding messages whether certain things are capitalized or hyphenated or not.

Re: Shortcuts keyboard with VoiceOver support
Hello Dave. Maybe I thought that passing along apps which might be useful to some and which have definitely gotten a voiceover improvement might be of interest to some on the list. Yes of course I realize that people can use the shortcuts that they have to set up which are a feature built into the Apple settings and has been a feature for a few years.however, this is a way for people to create shortcuts that are actual buttons on the keyboard. For example you can create a shortcut that has your entire mailing address, contact information, and phone number, and that might not be as easily done using the keyboard shortcuts of iPhone. Lastly, the most important reason I posted this information to the list is simply to share that there is another app for something. It doesn't matter if it is redundant or if some feel that it is a waste or not useful. If that was truly the case and no other apps were welcome on the list, then everybody would be using only the stock apps provided by the iPhone. This is why there are multiple calendar apps, weather apps, etc. On Feb 20, 2015, at 12:00 PM, Dave Sheridan dsherida...@icloud.com wrote: I'm also curious to know why this was posted without any reason or explanation so Raul it's back to you.

Re: recording room audio
Hello all. One thing that I find really helps is if a recommendation for an app is made, not only should the person making the recommendation say how they found the app, but who the developer is and then even if possible provide a link. So for example for this app in question I did a search for the app name as listed below, and I found two entries in the app store. The first entry is the free version which indicates there are in app purchases. The second entry is the pro version which cost $3.99. I double tap on the first entry and find the information. Near the upper right corner of the screen is a share button. I double tap the share button and then I double tap the copy link button so here's the link. If you double tap the following link it will open the app description directly in the app store so you don't have to do the steps above. Good luck.

Re: bluetooth headphone recommendations? boes or after shok's?
I never cared for bone conduction headphones. They don't fit well or sound well to me. What I would recommend for out and about usage where listening to your outside surround sound system Porten, are cheap Bluetooth headphones but only cover one ear. The Samsung HM 1900 are a good example. So is the Plantronics M 50. On Dec 16, 2014, at 12:57 PM, SSEric sseri...@gmail.com wrote: Just my opinion, but the Aftershox were not the greatest for music.

The two are totally different. Boes are for good sound and, depending on the model, noise isolation. Aftershokz are bone conduction, meaning that they don't sound as good but also don't block your ears at all. It is a bit like asking if you should get a white cane or a guide dog. Both have their good and bad points, and both approach their intended function in very different ways. If you can explain what you'll be doing with the headphones, we can provide more helpful ideas. For instance, the Aftershokz are great for walking around outside, since you can hear ambience, but not so great for privacy or blocking out other sounds. Boes headphones sound much better with music, but will probably be bulkier and block more noise.

RE: updating to ios 8.12
Hi, I agree that some might think that doing an iTunes backup, clearing app switcher, and all the other things might be overkill. However when you are the one who did all these things and you are the one who survived a data loss from something going wrong with your upgrade, it won’t seem like an overkill any ore. In some cases what I do is an iTunes encrypted backup first, and then once it’s connected there to the pc after the backup, I just upgrade. However if I don’t use iTunes, and just do an OTA upgrade, I still backup to iTunes first in case of catastrophe. I may not do everything that others do, but I still don’t just update over the air either. Cheers.

RE: happy upgrading - ios8.12 is out and updating now here
My guess for those wondering, is that the main purpose of the fix was to address themissing ring tone issue. I read on Twitter that the main kernel of the iOS 8.1.1 wasn't even upgraded. This tells me it's a minor update indeed if the main kernel is still the same. So, what this means is that people should not expect a huge bug fix all of a sudden by upgrading from 8.1.1 to 8.1.2. Now, if you are on anything older than 8.1.1, then you should definitely upgrade, especially if you are on 8.0 or 8.0.2. For those of you still on 7.X, only you guys can decide on whether to upgrade or nt. I won't go into all that because it's been rehashed to death on this list on who and who should and should not upgrade to iOS 8.X.

Re: The dark side of Apple's two-factor authentication
I don't agree withthis as the Darkside of apple's 2 step authentication for your safety. If people cannot be responsible to keep their security unlock key in a safe place then that is not apple's fault. I have the service enabled and I have all my safe recovery keys in an area that I can get to from either my iPhone or my computer or my iPad. I would have to experience a complete shutdown and lack of access from my Windows machine as well as my Apple devices in order for me to not have access to that key. I understand there can be some annoyance with too much security, however anytime extra security measures are added the companies that are offering the services are very clear about you needing to keep any sort of recovery keys available to you at all times. On Dec 9, 2014, at 2:10 PM, M. Taylor mk...@ucla.edu wrote: Hello Everyone, I strongly suggest that you read the following article, very carefully. The link to the original post may be found at the end of the text. Mark The dark side of Apple's two-factor authentication Earlier this week, a strange message popped up on my Mac that I thought nothing of. You can't sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons. I dismissed it in my tired haze, thinking it would solve itself and went to sleep. The next morning, I didn't have time to deal with the message - which was now popping up every half hour - for a few hours until it became annoying. I figured I'd done something dumb and broken iCloud, but that it could wait. I'd turned two-factor on my Apple ID in haste when I read Mat Honan's harrowing story about how his Mac, iPhone and other devices were wiped when someone broke into his iCloud account. That terrified me into thinking about real security for the first time. When I finally had time to investigate the errors appearing on my machine, I discovered that not only had my iCloud account been locked, but someone had tried to break in. Two-factor had done its job and kept the attacker out, however, it had also inadvertently locked me out. The Apple support page relating to lockouts assured me it would be easy to recover my account with a combination of any two of either my password, a trusted device or the two-factor recovery key. When I headed to the account recovery service, dubbed iForgot, I discovered that there was no way back in without my recovery key. That's when it hit me; I had no idea where my recovery key was or if I'd ever even put the piece of paper in a safe place. I've moved since I set up two-factor on iCloud. I began nervously scouring the entire house for the code, before giving up after a few frustrating hours and began searching my computer for any trace of it. I found countless recovery keys but they weren't for the right things; for my Mac's hard-drive encryption, Twitter, Facebook and other accounts, but not for my Apple ID. How could I be foolish enough to misplace my Apple ID recovery key? I swore that I'd taken a screenshot, printed it and had taken a photo of it with my iPhone for extra safekeeping. This is when it began to sink in that this single ID held the keys to much of my digital life; everything from iTunes purchases going back seven years, app purchases and even the ability to get my iPhone out of the grips of Find my iPhone's lock. The sinking feeling began. After fruitlessly searching and a lot of cussing, I decided to call Apple. I figured that something must be wrong, since the support page claims you can use trusted devices to recover your ID in cases like this. The first person I spoke to told me immediately after getting on the phone that in no uncertain terms I had forfeit my Apple ID by losing the recovery key. He refused to help me. I hung up and called back. On the second call, I got a lovely woman who totally understood my plight and how terrible it was. She told me a similar thing had happened to her, and it had turned out OK. After 20 minutes of poking around and lots of awkward sighing, she put me on hold to talk to a senior manager. When she got back on the line, the story was just as bleak. We take your security very seriously at Apple she told me but at this time we cannot grant you access back into your Apple account. We recommend you create a new Apple ID. I couldn't believe what I was hearing and fought back that surely there was some other way, but I was told point blank that Apple would not help me. I offered a scan of my government ID, my trusted devices and other proof that it was me. Nope, that won't do for Apple in this situation. She apologized profusely and said there was nothing more should do. Furious about the situation, I took to Twitter in a fit of rage, complaining that Apple couldn't help me out of a dumb situation, in which I could easily prove who I was. It was frustrating enough that when setting up my Apple ID, the company assured me I could

Re: an iTunes and Apple ID question.
I am not sure I know exactly what you're saying, but I can tell you that you can use multiple Apple IDs on the same phone. Likewise you can use the same Apple ID on multiple phones. For example before iOS eight came out I would use my Apple ID for my phone as well as my children's phones. This was for apps and music.however each of my children have their own Apple ID so they could use it for things like iCloud, iMessage, and face time. The end result was that we could all buy music and apps under one Apple ID and only pay for them once. Yet each individual would have their own separate face time and iMessage and iCloud backups. Now with iOS eight, they can each have their own Apple ID for apps and music as well On Dec 7, 2014, at 4:33 PM, Matthew Bullis matthewbulli...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, since the arrangement works for me, my work phone is the one I use, and the Apple ID is one that the entire department uses, even though I'm the primary user of the content most of the time.

In other words, will it actually upload or reference from device to device? There are a few devices from various coworkers on this ID, and I don't get any info about what they may have on their devices, though they may use their own Apple id.

Re: iPhone 3GS
I think that perhaps you are confusing the iPhone and the iPod. All iPhone starting with 3GS had voiceover regardless of the capacity of the gigabytes available. However the iPods were a different story. I think the iPod third-generation 8 GB did not have voiceover but the ones that were higher capacity did. I don't remember the specifics but I know it had to do with the iPod. On Dec 6, 2014, at 5:30 PM, Brian Albriton autoharp...@gmail.com wrote: Which iPhone 3GS has voiceover available?

Re: how are people liking KNFB reader?
I just saw that there are already 43 messages to this thread. So it has been quite a popular topic. I am writing this message to you without reading the other answers first. Then I will see how close my answer is to everyone else's. At least for me this app has been invaluable and definitely worth the cost. I use it to read my mail. That's probably the most thing I have used it for. I can quickly go through envelopes which arrived daily and if they are spam I can return them, or if they are addressed to someone else I can return them. If they are addressed to me I can keep them and once I go through the rest of the mail I can later open the ones I capped and quickly figure out what, if anything important they have to say. Additionally I have used this app to help me with my work. If I am working with someone's computer and speech doesn't come up, I can take a picture of the monitor and read whatever error message might be there. Another instance is the computer had booted up and it was at the desk top but the screen reader was not coming on. Taking a picture of the screen told me that the computer was definitely at the desk top with no error. So this told me that things were okay, and gave me a better direction as to which kind of troubleshooting I should try first.another time I was watching TV and the channel kept cutting out. On a whim I took a picture of the TV screen while I was sitting almost 5 feet away at my couch. It successfully read me the error message that came up on the TV screen.you can also use this app if you were out and about and need to take pictures of certain signs. Keep in mind that it will read text and not translate anything that has to do with pictures. It will also not do well if you take a picture of something with really large and fancy fonts, like the front of certain grocery store items.however with the same grocery store items, like cooking instructions, it will do very well. So if you can't remember how much oil to put in those brownies, this Apple definitely help you. There are several other good uses, but these are mainly the ones that I have used this app for.

Re: how are people liking KNFB reader?
Andy, I fully agree with you on this. While this app might be very successful at reading certain menus at a restaurant, I have not found a very practical to do so.

Re: reading menus with the KNFB reader - Re: how are people liking KNFB reader?
I fully agree with your message below. Being independent is one thing, but being practical is another thing. If people can find the right balance between practicality and independence then that is the best for everyone. For example, just because I can do something a certain way doesn't mean it's always the best way to do that certain way. If I am with someone and they have offered to help me go over the menu, it's going to be more time efficient to let that happen that way instead of me taking a picture of the menu of each page and then deciding what I want after they have already decided 10 minutes ago. To me being independent is figuring out the most practical and efficient way of getting the job done. On Dec 6, 2014, at 9:44 AM, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote: Hi Eden, Would you actually go to a restaurant with your family and try to use KNFB Reader to read the menu while they probably already selected what they want and then wait to see if you get a good result? I value independence as much as the next person, but if I walk into an elevator with a friend, family member or even a bunch of strangers, I don’t have to push the correct button just because it has braille if others who are pushing their own floor are already asking me and I can just tell them which floor I want. The same for me applies to a restaurant menu. I guess if I were by myself it would be one thing to use KNFB for this instead of asking the waiter or waitress to read it, but usually choosing a meal when I go out with friends or family becomes a conversation anyways and I don’t feel that anybody thinks I am not independent just because they are reading this information for me.

Hebblo, I will try this the next time it happens. Right now I'm using the display to write this message. I'm using contracted Braille for both input and output.

Re: Brailliant BI and iOS 8.1.1
I have tried various things like turning off the auto translation and it doesn't seem to make a difference. At first it was only seeming to happen in text messages but it also happens in emails. I am not sure if it is a problem specific with their humanware device or if it is iOS related. I have used a focus 40 and haven't seemed to notice any of these kinds of lock up issues.

Re: Solution to Texting Problem with Braille Display
Hi there. I believe that with the braille note you have to issue a bypass command first. This is because pressing space with E will exit and space with oh will open the braille note options. However I do not remember what the bypass command on the braille note is. I think I remember someone saying that if you press dot 8 together with the space command and the letter then it will bypass the braille note options. Either that or someone else can answer or perhaps the manual of the braille note will have that answer.

Hi there. If you were looking for an app which gives you certain notifications based on email recipient or send her or subject, try the app called MailTones. This app is simply a push notification service which gives you certain different sounds for the criteria that you set. You will still need to read the mail in the regular mail program. However if you utilize a cloud-based meal service like Gmail, you can set filters on the Gmail website to put messages in certain folders for you automatically.

Re: App for storing text files
Hello there. First off welcome to the list. Second, no doubt you will get other responses but here's what works for me. I use a program called drop box. This is something which will work in your Windows computer as well as in your iPhone. The service is free to sign up and gives you 2 GB free for use. You can earn additional storage by referring people or by doing various tasks. Once you sign up for dropbox and install it on your computer it will create a dropbox folder. Any files that you put inside this folder can be inside other subfolders as well. So maybe you could have a songs folder or lyrics folder inside dropbox. That is the first step. Next, there are multiple apps in the app store which are text editors and which will read dropbox folders. The one I like a lot is called droptext. This app is completely voiceover accessible and will read your dropbox folders and allow you to add new or edit existing text files which are located there. I believe this will solve your issue of having to write out lyrics in multiple places.The app I believe is two or three dollars. Drop box itself is free.there are other solutions but this one seems like would work the best based on your question. Good luck and let us know if this works.

In case any of you have a recommendation, this is what I would like to do: I am using a 64-bit iPhone 4S with the latest iOS update and the Focus 14 blue from Freedom Scientific. I am looking for an app that would allow me to store hundreds of small text files containing song lyrics, scripture readings, church bulletins, etc. I sing in my church choir and have been printing everything on paper, which requires both time and organization each week. I would like to store everything in my iPhone so that I can locate what I need quickly, turn off speech and use the Braille display for reading and singing. I have the text files stored on a Windows computer and would rather download them than retype everything, if possible. Each file is titled with the first initial of each word in the song, or some other appropriate identifier for a text file to be read aloud. Is this a dream, or something actually possible? I thought about just using Notes, but don't know if there is a limit to the number of notes I can store or if I can download files to create new notes. This does of course need to be accessible, as I have no vision. If you know of any apps that might fill my need, please let me know what they are and where I can find them.

It had more bugs than IOs 6, and look IOs 8, the worse IOs that the customers has seen. Looks like every year the quality is lower, and lower, and lower. Why is it happening? Easy, because apple is not feeling that they need to improve the IOs quality. A few days I read on the list, someone saying that apple is doing a good job, because in a few weeks, they have release 2 updates of IOs 8. I don't see this issue on the same way. If they have to fix things, it is because there were things to be fix. Again Raul, if we always are happy with whatever apple is doing, always they will decrease the quality. My advice to everybody, is write to apple, call them, make a lot of noise, then they will take care about what are the problems of their customers, but been good boys, quiet, they will not feel the need to improve anything.

The idea with such services as announced in 2011 was that you could talk to your phone in natural language style, much like you would ask your personal assistant a question. Indeed, Siri has been described as a personal assistant. One shouldn't have to get a syntax just so in order to get the answer you want. Natural language queries will improve over time, and it is good to know that at least if you ask a question in just the right way, you may get the answer you're looking for. Who knows what things will be like a year from now, but at this point it seems Google can parse queries a little more intelligently, at least in some cases. Apple seem to know it has some catch-up to do. Word is they are devoting some serious new resources to improving what Siri can do. I suspect we will see big things relating to Siri in iOS 9.

Re: Adding audio books
Wow I don't know about that feature. For me personally that would be a bug. When I set the sleep timer I want to use it to, well, fall asleep and not let the book run on and on. If there was an audio alert telling me that the sleep timer is almost up, that is like someone waking me up to say, hey, it's almost time for you to fall asleep. So it would kind of defeats the purpose for me. If Winston were to add such a feature I would hope it would be a toggle. On Nov 18, 2014, at 9:50 AM, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote: Yes, I agree with Richard and John and give my vote to Voice Dream. Listening to MP3 audio books is a very nice experience, no more converting to a single file with Chapter and Vers or redesignating the files from music to audio book. I also love the way Voice Dream has implemented jumping forward and back by chapter, time interval or by percentage and how they have done their sleep timer. All I have asked Winston for is to also give a 5 minute jump back or forward in addition to 30 and 60 seconds. It would also be awesome if the sleep timer had a way to give you a subtle warning 10 or 20 seconds before it runs out and you could reset it with a simple press of the volume up or down button. There is an app called iTired which does that and it's a fantastic feature. I can set my sleep timer to 5 minutes and if it take me 17 minutes to fall asleep, I just reset it 3 times and when I wake up all I have to do to find my place is go back 3 minutes.

When you impoort mp3 files into iTunes, it assumes they are music. So, depending on how the files are tagged, you may find them under artist, title, unknown, etc. in the music folder. With iTunes 12, I find this whole process a bit more challenging than it was before. You can search for the book in the music library, then if your search gets you all the files, you can right click and select get info. You will then need to change the kind from music to audio book. You will also have choices of skip when shuffling, remember your place, which you want if it is a book. If the files are not tagged correctly, you may find chapters out of order. Remember, iTunes does not care what the file names are, it sorts only by the internal tagging. I believe folks on this list have recommended software that can make the tagging and all that much easier, but I don't recall what the name was. Personally, if I want to listen to an audio book that is in mp3 format, I now use VoiceDream Reader. With VoiceDream, you simply need to make sure the files are named in such a way that they will be sorted in order, add them all to a zip file with the zip filename the name of the book. Add the zip file to dropbox, and use VoiceDream to import the zip file. When it is done, you will have a book that is named whatever the zip file was named, and each file will be treated as a chapter in the book. It works fabulously.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Pablo. All iOS versions have Voice Over bugs, Safari bugs, mail bugs, messages bugs, phone call bugs, ETC. You will never get a completely bug-free system. You will have to decide for yourself which bugs are deal breakers for you and which ones you can live with. For me specifically for example, the voice over scrolling bug which has been there since iOS 8.0 and all the way through 8.1 has now been fixed with iOS 8.1.1. Are there other bugs, of course there are. I have known your posts since before iOS 6 basically saying the same thing. If you want Apple to put out a bug free iOS, you will be waiting forever. You can read the messages on this busy list, or you can go over to www.applevis.com and see what they have to say about the existing bugs there. Good luck.

However it is what it is and we have to live the life as it is given to us and as we choose to live it. Only you can make it better. Regarding the printer issues, several people have already written what possible solutions there are. If you have a printer that doesn't work with air print, you will either need to buy a piece of hardware that will make a capable to air print, or you will need to replace the printer with one that has the feature built-in. Whether you need help in doing this or not isn't the issue. The issue is that if you want to print, you will need to do one of those things first.

If you spend $100 or less you will get a throw-away product, at least this has been my experience. I bought an HP C310A All-In-One printer a few years ago which at the time was one of a fairly limited list of Airprint enabled printers and it was $110. I hardly ever used it and one day when I wanted to print something it wouldn’t pull in the paper any more. I had a sighted friend help me trouble shoot it and no matter what we did it just on’t pull in the paper. It starts up and you expect any second the paper will go in, but then after it goes on for a while it stops and gives you some sort of error. If you only scan occasionally and your scanner still works, I would seriously consider buying just a little black and white laser printer. You can get them for around $100 or $120 with Airprint and all that and chances are it will still print in 10 years. I have an HP Laserjet 1012 which is probably about that old and while it’s USB only, it just goes and goes. Furthermore a toner cartridge lasts forever and if you print very infrequently even the inkjet printers of today are a problem as the ink may dry up. A laser printer uses toner which is a powder which during the print process is heated up and therefore it can never dry up. First of all you have to answer the question whether you are looking mostly for a document printer or a photoprinter. If you want a document printer then do you need colour? A simple black and white laserprinter is the cheapest as far as cost per page and return on investment as it will most likely last and not give you any troubles for years to come. You can even get good colour laserjet printers for less than $200 and it’s just a matter of sorting through the large offering to see which ones support Airprint which many of them do. But colour laser printers if you do have to replace the cartridge are relatively expensive even though in the long run the cost per page is less than for an inkjet printer. Also keep in mind that while you may be able to do basic stuff like print and scan from the computer, a lot of today’s all-in-one printers have all sorts of touchpad panels to control and setup the thing. If you buy online you may end up getting a printer which might be difficult to use in terms of making even simple selections. On a basic black and white laserprinter you mostly have a power button and not a lot more. I have bought a lot of printers in my life and while I used to buy expensive printers under the assumption that quality costs money, that is not necessarily the case any more and you can get something in the mid price range which for a colour laserjet printer is $180 to $300 and for a black and white laserjet printer is $100 to $150. My last colour laserjet which I bought for my business back in 2007 was $1,500 at the time and if I have to replace all 3 colour cartridges and the black and white cartridge it sets me back $800 if I buy original HP cartridges. But these cartridges print 6,000 pages and last me about 3 or 4 years. Nowadays I could buy an equivalent printer for around $400 to $500 and as much as I hate it, even at that price it’s almost cheaper to buy a new printer rather than to spend $500 to replace all the cartridges. I have been buying third-party cartridges the last few times and they seem to work just as good at literally

Re: Printer
I recently listen to the today and iOS podcast and Rob was talking about a device called X print server. He says it is a little box that plugs into your network through ethernet. It has a USB port and some other connection so that you can connect any printer to this box.basically the idea of this box is that any printer that you connect to it whether the printer is network capable or not and whether the printer is Apple air print ready or not, by going through this box, it makes any printer air print capable. You can then use your iPhone or iPad or any other device to print in your network and it will use this printer. The device cost I think around $100.

One of the things I like about Brother, is there installation stuff is accessible and the utility even has a blind user mode, which means you can access most of the controls from the computer.

If you spend $100 or less you will get a throw-away product, at least this has been my experience. I bought an HP C310A All-In-One printer a few years ago which at the time was one of a fairly limited list of Airprint enabled printers and it was $110. I hardly ever used it and one day when I wanted to print something it wouldn’t pull in the paper any more. I had a sighted friend help me trouble shoot it and no matter what we did it just on’t pull in the paper. It starts up and you expect any second the paper will go in, but then after it goes on for a while it stops and gives you some sort of error. If you only scan occasionally and your scanner still works, I would seriously consider buying just a little black and white laser printer. You can get them for around $100 or $120 with Airprint and all that and chances are it will still print in 10 years. I have an HP Laserjet 1012 which is probably about that old and while it’s USB only, it just goes and goes. Furthermore a toner cartridge lasts forever and if you print very infrequently even the inkjet printers of today are a problem as the ink may dry up. A laser printer uses toner which is a powder which during the print process is heated up and therefore it can never dry up. First of all you have to answer the question whether you are looking mostly for a document printer or a photoprinter. If you want a document printer then do you need colour? A simple black and white laserprinter is the cheapest as far as cost per page and return on investment as it will most likely last and not give you any troubles for years to come. You can even get good colour laserjet printers for less than $200 and it’s just a matter of sorting through the large offering to see which ones support Airprint which many of them do. But colour laser printers if you do have to replace the cartridge are relatively expensive even though in the long run the cost per page is less than for an inkjet printer. Also keep in mind that while you may be able to do basic stuff like print and scan from the computer, a lot of today’s all-in-one printers have all sorts of touchpad panels to control and setup the thing. If you buy online you may end up getting a printer which might be difficult to use in terms of making even simple selections. On a basic black and white laserprinter you mostly have a power button and not a lot more. I have bought a lot of printers in my life and while I used to buy expensive printers under the assumption that quality costs money, that is not necessarily the case any more and you can get something in the mid price range which for a colour laserjet printer is $180 to $300 and for a black and white laserjet printer is $100 to $150.

Re: Printer
I never cared for the multi function printer is myself. I have a brother monochrome laser printer which I bought for $67 on Amazon through a lightning deal.

It will tell you what intersections are coming up, what street you are on, and optionally what points of interest are around. However, it can do tracking, where it opens up the GPS app of your choice, such as Apple Maps. Honestly depending on what you need it for, I think just using Maps works fine. It can now tell you what street you are on, and what intersection is coming up. BlindSquare has some more options, but nowadays I find myself just using Maps. Carrying it in your pocket should work fine. No, you don’t need to install anything else. It can be helpful to install 4Square, if you want to check into locations, or create custom points of interest, but it’s not necessary.

Re: Blind Square Questions
Hi there. Blind Square will not give you turn by turn directions. That's not what's the feature for it. This goes into your question 3 I think, if you want turn by turn directions, I highly recommend Google Maps for turn by turn directions. The cost of Blind Square in the US is 30 dollars. You don't need the Foursquare App but it will add functionality specific to it if you use it. Lastly, if you want to carry it the way you have been, that's fine. Over all I highly recommend this app. On Nov 8, 2014, at 9:53 AM, Sherry Wells sherrywe...@ameritech.net wrote: Hi all, I am considering getting Blind Square so read through the frequently asked questions on their web site.

Re: App for announcing intersections
Hi. It seems like many people recommend blind square. I also agree but if the price is too much then Ariadne will also work and it's far cheaper. Also, don't listen to those who say that it uses 1gb per hour. That is rubbish. I don't even think it uses 1mb per hour. So you should be ok in terms of data. I still feel blind square is worth it's price tag. Good luck.

If you sync your apps with iTunes a physical copy of all your apps is kept on your computer and you can sync these copies back to your phone.

Re: Sound gone for sending mail in Yosemite
Hi there. Just so you know, you might get more responses if you subscribe to the Mac visionaries email list instead of posting the questions here.

I checked the mail preferences in Mail, and the Play Other Sounds checkbox is checked. There is no option for selecting what other sound should be played, and, there is no item in the help file explaining what to do. I know the email has been sent because there is a copy in my Send mailbox and my wife received a test copy. What do I need to do to turn the airplane sound back on?

Re: A Particular Keyboard
Hi. The only difference between the 810 and 811 is the key labels. Beyond that it's a standard bluetooth keyboard which works very well and can be paired with up to 3 devices. Good luck.

I know it will work on Windows computers and tablets, but what about an iPhone? I also know that the k811 was made for Apple iPads and iPhones, but I don't think it would work with the PC systems. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. I'd love to have a keyboard that will work with my PC, my Dell Tablet, and my iPhone...all being Bluetooth devices.
