RE: Blindfold, spider, Solitaire games

[Rob Armstrong]

I do not play the Blindfold Solitaire games.  But I do play Kings Corner, which 
is similar.  Occasionally, Kings Corner doesn't function properly.  When that 
happens, I solve the problem by closing the app, using the app switcher to 
remove it from storage, and then open the app again.  That solves my problem.

You might try this with Blindfold Solitaire games to see if it works.

As a note, with Kings Corner, I don't even lose my place in the game.

Subject: Blindfold, spider, Solitaire games

Good afternoon everyone,

I have been a great fan of playing solitaire for years. I’ve had the Blindfold 
Solitaire games for quite some time. When I went to play the game today, when I 
attempt to move an ace to the foundation, it tells me it can’t be moved. Does 
anyone know if there is a solution for this problem? Also, I deleted and 
re-downloaded the game and that didn’t help. Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.

RE: Phone update question

[Rob Armstrong]

You should first take a backup of your current system just to be safe.  You can 
back up to iCloud.  But the better approach is to take an encrypted backup to a 
Windows computer or a Mac.  I have never had to restore from a backup, but I 
always take a backup before a major update to a new release.

You should probably have your phone plugged into the battery charger while 
doing the update.  Start the update when you are getting ready to go to bed.  
You will have to enter the pass code to begin the update.  After you enter the 
pass code, the update will happen without you having to do anything.

When I did the update a few weeks ago, an error occurred during the download of 
the new version.  There was an option to retry.  After I double tapped Retry, 
the update downloaded and installed without any more problem.

When the update finishes, it automatically shuts down and restarts the phone.  
It will be on the home screen.

I wanted to download an APP and discovered I'd have to have the latest version. 
Good reason to update from iOS 16. Is there a way to do this by having it

while the update is being installed? Thanks for any suggestions.

Share Your Location In Google Maps

[Rob Armstrong]

Double tap Account And Settings in the top right corner of the main screen

Double tap Location Sharing.

Double tap Share Location.

Scroll through your contacts on the lower portion of the screen.

Double tap on the contact you want to share your location with.

 

I did not go any further with the process, so there may be another step.

 

To stop sharing, follow the same process to get into the location sharing

and I had to download a program to my PC to change the format to, .JPEG, before 
they seen on my PC.

 

So, how do we change the default photo format back to .JPEG?  I don't know when 
the format switched to this .HEIC format, but I do not like it at all.  I 
opened the camera and didn't find the old format option.  Does anyone know how 
we can switch back to the .JPEG format?  All help is greatly appreciated.  
Thanks much.

Be My AI is just one of the features of the Be My Eyes app.  If you already

If you need to install it, go to the app store, search for Be My Eyes, and

Be My AI Mentioned Amongst TIME Best Inventions of 2023


The new AI Describer for people who are blind or have low vision is featured in 
the AI Category

By Michele Paris, Marketing and Communications Manager



Michele Paris

Marketing and Communications Manager



Be My AI, the  first-of-its-kind digital visual assistant powered by GPT-4, was 
mentioned amongst the Time Best Invention of 2023 
<https://time.com/collection/best-inventions-2023/6326986/openai-gpt-4/>  
thanks to the collaboration between Be My Eyes and OpenAI. The annual list 
features the most groundbreaking inventions, including new products and ideas, 
that TIME editors have identified as “life changing”.

“Be My Eyes is proud to be mentioned among the brilliant innovations included 
in TIME’s Best Inventions 2023 list with Be My AI. This new tool is providing 
people who are blind or have low vision with a better way to address everyday 
needs and acquire tools and visual descriptions never before possible,” said 
Michael Buckley, CEO of Be My Eyes. “We are grateful to TIME for this 
incredible recognition, as we work to create a more accessible world for people 
of all abilities.”

This acknowledgment comes after a week from Be My Eyes’ celebrations for 
officially reaching 1,000,000 chats on Be My AI. As of today, over 5,500 blind 
people are accessing Be My AI every day, asking over 30,000+ questions daily to 
the AI-powered tool. 

“The new feature of having an AI assistant, specifically Be My AI, has truly 
been a game-changer for me. It allows me to experience the world in a whole new 
way by providing detailed descriptions of various things,” says Malak, who has 
been beta testing Be My AI since March. “Thanks to Be My AI, I now have the 
ability to enjoy visual experiences and share moments in ways that were once 
unimaginable. Be My Eyes' contribution has made a significant impact on our 
lives, and we are incredibly thankful for their invaluable support.”

Be My AI is currently available for all Be My Eyes users on iOS. We have 
already started closed beta testing Be My AI for Android devices and our goal 
is to move it to broadly-available open beta status in the coming months. It is 
already possible to sign up on the waitlist for Android beta testing in the Be 
My Eyes app.

RE: couple of questions about EERO Router

[Rob Armstrong]

I don’t know about the iPad mini.

 

For the iPhone, go to Settings, then General, then About.

 

For iOS 16.6, the Wi-Fi Address is near the top of the second page and is after 
the information about memory capacity and available.

Not exactly what I'm looking for. It was easy to rename my devices so I would 
know exactly which ones are which, however, there are three showing up as 
unnamed. The IP addresses are there, but I don't know which Apple devices they 
go to unless I can find the IP address on the actual device. Two of them are 
cell phones and one is a mini IPad. I want to know where on the device to find 
it's IP address so I can name them on the router.

If you need to give the Eero app permission to access your network devices, go 
into Settings -> Privacy -> Local Network and look for the Eero app.

 

Which IP address are you looking for? In the Eero app you can go to Settings 
and Network Settings and you’ll see the WAN and gateway IP addresses. If you 
want the IP address assigned to a particular device, just double tap on that 
device in the home tab.

That message disappeared, so where can I find in the app to connect my other

Yes, you need to do this. The Eero app on your iPhone needs to be able to 
connect to your Eero devices over the network.

Subject: couple of questions about EERO Router

 

Hi,

 

When I tried to open my EERO router on my phone, I got a message that EERO 
would like to connect devices to my local network. I've never gotten that 
before. Can someone explain that to me and whether I need to do that? My router 
has been working fine, so I'm a little confused. It's EERO Plus that I'm using.

 

Thanks.

Good day to all and a beautiful late Summer day it is here in Toronto.
I've started research on buying a new laptop.  I'm using Jaws or NVDA as a 
totally blind user.
I'm currently using an HP Envy 11 inch machine that I have not been happy with 
from the start, three years ago.
My usage is mostly Internet, Microsoft suite of products including e-mail.
Wondering if anyone has recent experience that you might want to share, be it 
good or bad!

RE: My phone announcing Screen curtain on

[Rob Armstrong]

I wasn't asking who spoke all the samples to create the Samantha voice.  I 
asked if anyone still has the list that identifies what the older names were 
for the Siri voices now called voice 1, voice 2, ETC.  All of the Siri voices 
used to have names like Samantha and Aaron.

When trying to choose VoiceOver voices, we cannot be sure the voice we chose is 
not a Siri voice since the Siri voice is not identified by the same name.

Switch your voiceover voice from a siri voice to a voiceover voice & it will 
stop the frequent screen curtain message. This suggestion comes from Apple &

RE: My phone announcing Screen curtain on

[Rob Armstrong]

I have just updated to iOS 16.5.  Even in iOS 15.7, iOS frequently jumps back 
several screens in both Google Chat and WhatsApp.  This happens no matter 
whether the screen curtain is on or off.  It does not jump back the same amount 
each time.

Subject: RE: My phone announcing Screen curtain on

This seems to be a bug with iOS 16.5 and also still with iOS 16.6 beta. I think 
what is happening is that there is some sort of brief crash because whenever 
this happens for me I am kicked back up the top of the page no matter if I was 
just swipeing through Facebook posts, reading a news article or whatever. This 
also happens with screen currtain off, but since I think Voiceover briefly 
crashes and restarts when screen curtain is on you hear the message "screen 
curtain on".
I have been meaning to send this to Apple Accessibilithy and demonstrating with 
a screen recording, but I am not sure if a screen recording would do much when 
screen curtain is on; just as a screenshot with screen curtain on gives you an 
image of a black screen I assume maybe a screen recording with screen curtain 
on does the same. I tried a few days ago and of course while I was doing the 
screen rec ording all went normally and this didn't happen. Anyways, I am glad 
I am not the only one and it would be interesting to know if others experience 
this or sometimes are surprised that focus suddenly jumps to the top of the 
page even when screen curtain is off. It is a bug for sure as far as I am 
concerned; not a dealvbreaker, but quite annoying.

RE: How to take a screenshot on an SE second generation iPhone?

[Rob Armstrong]

If you do not have the email thread on your iPhone, create an email to yourself 
so you can send the attachment to your computer.

If you have the email thread on your iPhone, start a reply email.

Enter some text in the body of the email.  When you finish entering text or 
reach the spot where you want to insert the attachment, follow the steps below.

Carefully explore the screen above the keyboard.  You will find the following 
options: Note that you can flick right to hear each of these options.

Text format button
Insert photo button
Take photo or video button
Scan document button
Scan text button
Insert attachment button
Insert drawing button

You can double-tap on the Insert photo button and choose the photo from the 
photos gallery or double-tap Insert attachment button and choose the file you 
saved in the Files app.

Below is a link to the Apple Support page describing this process.

RE: How to take a screenshot on an SE second generation iPhone?

[Rob Armstrong]

There is probably several ways to send the photo.  Here is one way.

After you take the screen shot, go to the Photos app and locate the photo you 
just took. It will have the current date and very recent time stamp.

Double-tap on the photo to open it.

Near the bottom of the screen, double-tap the Share button.

There will be several options on the share screen.  Explore the screen however 
works best for you.  Explore by touch or just flick right many times to hear 
the options.

Among all the options, one option is "save to files".  If you have DropBox, 
OneDrive, or other cloud storage apps, they will be among the options.

Double-tap Save to Files.

Explore the screen.  The last folder you saved something to will probably be 
selected.  You can save the image there or create a new folder.  Be sure to 
note what folder the image will be saved to.

When you are ready, double-tap the Save button in the upper right corner of the 
screen.

Now you can start a reply email and send the image as an attachment to the 
email.

Thanks Rob and Richard. I have successfully taken the screen shot but I can't

RE: How to take a screenshot on an SE second generation iPhone?

[Rob Armstrong]

Here is how to take a screen shot on any iPhone with a home button.

I don't know if it is required, but I recommend that you make sure the screen 
curtain is off before taking a screen shot.  Turn the screen curtain on or off 
with a 3 finger triple-tap.

Press the power button and home button at the same time.  You will hear the 
camera click.  Wait just a few seconds, and the screen shot will be in the 
photo library.

Hi guys,

   I’m trying to find an accessible GPS application for the iPhone that will 
offer really easy to use bread crumb features for an older gentleman who is not

He needs an app in which he can navigate between specific landmarks on his 
property and be given directions or indicators if he wanders astray. This would 
be, for example, reaching a water tower from his house or finding his way back 
to his house from another part of his property.

 

If anyone can suggest a specific app that will fit the bill, please let me

appreciate that as well.

RE: Important, No Text Verifications

[Rob Armstrong]

On most sites, you can choose to receive the verification code by text message 
or email.  You usually have to indicate every time you log in whether you want 
the code sent by text message or email.  After you do everything to send the 
verification code by text message, do you find the edit box to enter the 
verification code?  That is your confirmation that the text message was sent.

Here are a few questions to help diagnose the problem.  You have probably 
already checked most of these.

Have you looked at the messages app to see if the message arrived?  If it did 
arrive, you may have the sounds muted or the text alert tone volume turned 
down.  The text message alert may have been turned off.  This could possibly 
happen during an iOS update.

Do you receive text messages from other people?

Subject: Important, No Text Verifications

Hi,

All of a sudden, I am not able to receive verification codes for logging into 
websites like for banking. At first, I thought it might be an issue with the 
website, but this happens to me on multiple sites.

These sites do not have apps to access your information, so I am forced to go 
through their site. And without being able to receive the verification codes, I 
can not access my accounts. Again, this is on multiple sites.

This is what I have tried so far.
1, Restarting my iPhone.
2, Doing a forced restart of my iPhone.
3, Made sure both sms and mms are turned on in the settings.
4, Checked to make sure the numbers are not in my block list. Actually at this 
moment, I have no numbers in my block list.
5, Reset my network settings.
6, Made sure I have both wi-fi and cell connections.

These sites send you a verification code by text and that is how you finish the 
log in process. And the text message is the only choice.

I am out of ideas, so I wanted to see if anyone else ever had this issue, or if 
anyone had any ideas of what else it could be. Getting on to these sites are 
important, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

By the way, I am running 16.3 on an Iphone 14 Pro.

Thanks,

Chris

Is this a different volume from Voiceover volume that we control with

How are these other volume levels controlled?

RE: IPhone not announcing callers

[Rob Armstrong]

Here are a couple of things you can check.

If you have the ringer volume set too loud, you may not hear the caller ID even 
if it is being announced.

Make sure your phone is not muted.  Wake up your phone and unlock the screen.  
Hold the phone flat with the screen facing up.  Use your fingernail to slide 
the mute switch up.  If the switch moves, the phone should say "unmuted".  If 
it does not move, you might slide the switch down to hear "muted" and then 
slide it back up to hear "unmuted".  This will confirm that the phone is not 
muted.

Call your cell phone from a land line or get someone to call you to see if you 
now hear the caller ID.

If you still do not hear the caller, check Settings.  Go to Settings then 
Phone.  Make sure that Announce Caller is set to Always.  Then repeat the test 
to see if you hear the caller ID.

Here is a message someone else posted who had the same problem.

Hello All,

 

Yesterday, on my beloved 8 Plus, Siri did read a couple of phone numbers as 
words and not as single digits.  

 

I could not consistently get Siri to do this but I was really surprised when it 
responded with a phone number starting in the billions.  My first thought upon 
hearing this was, “What the …?”

 

Just an F Y I.

Entering Patient Information In Ellume COVID Home Test

[Rob Armstrong]

I need some tips or confirmation about entering my patient information in
the Ellume COVID Home Test app.

 

I am using an iPhone SE 2022 and iOS 15.7.  My typing style is set to touch
typing.  I typically find the letter I want to enter and lift my finger to
enter the letter.

 

When I enter my first, middle, and last name, I hear a click when I lift my
finger on each letter.  But I cannot confirm that I have entered the correct
information.

 

Here is my biggest problem.  There are picker items for the month, day, and
year of my date of birth.  I adjust each of the picker items the the correct
value and double-tap to hopefully enter the value.  But when I look at the
edit field, the original values of the picker items are still there.  The
cursor is positioned at the end of the date (which is today's date).  There
is no delete button to delete the value.  What do I need to do to be sure
the values of the picker items are used as my birth date?

 

I appreciate any help that will get me through this process.

RE: Sending Money with the PayPal App

[Rob Armstrong]

Just keep entering the digits you want without entering a decimal point.  For 
example, if you want to enter $75.50 you just enter 7550 and the app will move 
the decimal point as you enter more digits.  In the example for $75.50, here is 
what VoiceOver will say.

 

When you enter 7 Voiceover will say 7 cents.

When you enter 5, VoiceOver will say 75 cents.

When you enter 5, VoiceOver will say 5 dollars and 75 cents.

When you enter 0, VoiceOver will say 75 dollars and 50 cents.

Hi All,

 

Using an SE2020 phone running iOS15.7.  I tried sending money using the PayPal 
app for the first time yesterday and found I couldn't type in the amount I 
wanted to send.

 

I was using a K380 keyboard, if it matters, and the field was just called, 
Label, that you enter your amount into.  It's not a text field that you double 
tap on to hear, text field is editing, like you normally hear when you are 
entering text.

 

Anyways, when i typed the number 7, to enter 75.00 , voiceover reported 7 cents 
then when i typed the 5 voiceover reported 75 cents, and that's all I could do. 
 I couldn't navigate this field, or at least I couldn't find a way to navigate 
it myself.

 

I ended up using my PC to send the money.  If anyone knows the correct way to 
enter the money amount into the PayPal app, would youplease share the steps?  
All input is greatly appreciated.  Thanks much.

 

 

Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.  Go Dodgers!

You have to remember that just as you described, the passcode is required when

number of attempts it doesn't recognize your fingerprint, it will then ask for 
the passcode to authenticate and unlock the phone.
I don't know if  you turn your phone often, but really you shouldn't. iPhones 
are designed to be on all the time and the don't have to be shut down at all. 
From time to time you may end up having to turn it off and back on if you have 
strange issues or of course there could be a time when you simply run out of 
battery and the phone turns itself off, but I literally go weeks and sometimes 
months without turning my phone off and back on and the only time I have to put 
in my passcode is when for some reason Face Id isn't working a few times one 
attempt after another (same goes for Touch Id) or for some other strange 
reason. But typically I again often go days without having to enter my passcode 
manually.

It's been asking for the Pass Code for months now.

When I power up, it says Pass Code is required when phone starts up.  My memory 
is that it started asking for it after I had set use Touch ID on the App Store 
instead of Apple ID.  I turn on the phone much more than I get apps and had 
tried to change it to must use Apple ID on App Store in hopes of not being 
asked for the Pass Code to turn on the phone, but I still had to use the pass 
code.  I THINK I could use Touch ID the other day when I installed a free app 
from the App Store and did not have to type my Apple ID but it wasn't a good 
day and my memory may not be correct.

I don't want to get rid of the Pass Code entirely; having it helped with some 
mishap I had.  I just would prefer not to have to type it in every time I use 
the phone.

Good Evening:

 

The recent Face ID hit or miss thread caught my interest since, like the 
original poster, I have an iPhone SE 2020 and like Touch ID.

 

The SE2020 is my first smart phone and is my back up  with my land line being 
my primary phone.  I have the cell powered off most of the time and might power 
it on for texting or to check the weather app etc.  I have Apple ID, Touch ID, 
and Pass Code set up and have purchased an app on the App Store.  The way 
things are set up, I have to type in my pass code when I power up.  I can 
usually do it correctly the first or second time so typing it isn't the 
problem; I'd prefer to use Touch Id instead if possible.  I am not in a work or 
school situation and my house does not resemble Grand Central Station and I do 
not have a lot of personal information on the cell.

 

The original post did say locked and not powered off.  When I first got the

Rotor is about 4 items down in the VoiceOver settings.

 

The items for Screen Recognition and Navigation Style are the last 2 items in 
the list of 45 items.  Double-tap them to select them.  This adds them to the

After you have done this, double-tap the back button in the upper left corner

There are some settings you should probably check.  I copied these tips from 
other emails I had saved.

 

Go to Settings, then Accessibility, then VoiceOver, and scroll down until you 
find a series of settings (Image Description, Screen Recognition, and Text 
Recognition.  In this case, turn both Screen Recognition and Text Recognition 
off.  Text Recognition is supposed to sniff text out of images, but I for one 
have found it a bit problematic.  There are times when Screen Recognition _is 
helpful, but in other situations, you want to turn it off.  If the app is 
already accessible, Screen Recognition should be turned off.  You may want to 
add this to the rotor or Quick settings so you can turn it on if you encounter 
an app that does not have labels on the buttons and fields.

 

“Navigation Style” is a feature that is new with iOS 15, and has to do with the 
way items on a given screen are read.  “Flat” is what you could term the 
default, and reads all of the items on the screen just as they are laid out.  
In other words, it’s the way screen navigation has always been done.  
Therefore, in this message, having navigation style set to flat allows one to 
read all of the items on the screen in the normal way.  If, in this message, I 
set navigation style to “group”, only a few items are read—and only those that 
relate closely to each other are read.   In fact, if you flick around on the 
screen with Navigation Style set to Group, you will encounter very few items at 
all.  _Touching the screen will access a few additional items.  Mail is, for 
all practical purposes, inaccessible with navigation style set to group.  Group 
would be a bit more useful if you were in a website that had a wide variety of 
items on it.  So, as I have stated previously, you always want to have 
navigation style set to “flat”, and screen recognition turned off, unless you 
find yourself missing a lot of what you know is there.

RE: Euber help please.

[Rob Armstrong]

I have not found a way to include a note to the driver in the Uber app.  
Someone else may know how to do it.

 

If Lyft is available in your area, consider downloading the Lyft app and 
setting up an account.  When you are requesting a ride with Lyft, you reach a 
screen where you confirm or enter your pickup address.  There is also a field 
on that screen where you can include a note for the driver.  When you 
double-tap the button, you see some pre-defined entries for the beginning of 
the note such as In front of, Gate code, and others.  But there is also a 
choice for you to enter your own note.  I think you have 60 characters.  After 
you finish writing or dictating the note, you double-tap the “Add note for 
driver” button to save the note and include it in the ride request.

 

The next time you request a ride with Lyft, the note you wrote before is now 
one of the choices in the list of notes.  So you don’t have to write the same 
note every time.

Hello,

 

I went into the Uber app. I went to where it said account. I went to edit. As I 
want to add a note so the Uber driver will call me upon arrival and to make 
them know I’m blind so they won’t just drive off.  Instructions please on how 
to do this.

 

Thanks for reading regarding this matter.

RE: No speech on speaker of iPhone 13 Pro

[Rob Armstrong]

The first thing to check is to make sure the phone is not muted.  The mute or 
silence switch is a small switch probably on the left edge of the phone near 
the upper left corner. You change the switch with your fingernail.  

Hold the phone flat with the screen facing up.  Have the phone unlocked with 
VoiceOver on.  The phone is muted when the switch is in the up position.  To 
unmute the phone, push the switch down.  If the phone is unlocked and VoiceOver 
is on, it will say "unmuted".

Nreetings. I'm having a problem with my new iPhone 13 Pro and VoiceOver. When I 
have earbuds plugged in, I get VoiceOver just fine. But, when I unplug the 
earbuds and try using the phone's speaker, I get no speech or VoiceOver sounds 
at all. I have tried toggling VoiceOver speech off and back on, and turning the 
phone off and back on. Neither solution works. I'm running iOS 15.6. Does 
anyone have any ideas?

RE: help with Kings corner app please

I have been playing Kings Corner for years.  Quite often when I place a card on 
a stack, it doesn't actually move.  I always double check where I placed the 
card to make sure it is there.  If it is not there, I simply pick it up from my 
cards and try to move it again.

I played Kings corner for quite some time but had the same problem that I’m 
having now. When I go to play a card and I double tap on it and hold it and 
move it to drop it it doesn’t drop under card that I want to put it on. Is 
there a workaround for this? Is it a double tap and hold? Do I have the right 
game? I saw a lot of different ones but I chose to download, I should say 
re-download, the one that I had before. I really like the game, but I’m really 
frustrated with not being able to move the cards properly. Thanks for any help 
with us.

Hi.

 

Cell service for me isn’t the best inside my apartment and a small area 
outside. I’ve gotten a cell booster that I’m hoping will help the situation. 
With this in mind, I have some questions.

 

First, what I got is supposed to cover up to 4,500 square feet. Does this 
include outside where I live? It doesn’t need to do much to fill in the poor 
signal.

 

How difficult is it to get it up and working? I’m hoping I can do it with no 
sighted assistance.

 

Lastly, I know these things are carrier specific. I’ve gotten one that should 
work. My question is does it need something like a sim card to work, or is it 
like a repeater, just rebroadcasting what it receives?

 

Those are my questions. Any info anyone has is appreciated.

 

Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

 

Kevin, Valerie and Jilly

RE: Choosing symbols

[Rob Armstrong]

When you are in an edit field, double-tap the Numbers button in the lower left 
corner of the screen to bring up the numbers.  Along with the numbers are 
several of the most often used punctuation and symbols.

While the numbers keyboard is active, double-tap the Symbols button in the 
lower left corner of the screen just below the Letters button.  I find these 
buttons by exploring the screen rather than swiping.  I cannot tell you the 
swipe sequence.

RE: Another question about notes app

Double-tap Settings.

Double-tap Accessibility.

Double-tap VoiceOver.

Double-tap Typing.

Swipe right until you reach Touch Typing and then double-tap.

Double-tap the Back button in the upper left corner of the screen several times 
until you get out of Settings.

 

Now bring up any edit field.  You should be able to find the letter you want to 
enter and then lift your finger to enter the letter.

 

While you are in the Typing settings, you may want to review the Typing 
Feedback section to make sure you receive the feedback you want when you are

Sounds like you’re doing everything right to me. After you double tap on the 
add note button, make sure you’re in the edit field and it has focus. Type what 
you need to type into your note, and it should appear. You should see it when 
you swipe around or explore the screen. Changing the roter to characters or 
words swill also let you see what you’ve typed into the edit field. When you

I, too, was unsuccessful raising the ringer volume using the volume up button 
even though the corresponding setting is turned on.  I suggest you go into 
settings and adjust the ringer volume up more.  When you change the volume in

Subject: Getting the ring tone volume louder on an iPhone X when the phone rings

 

Hi.

 

I gave my girlfriend an iPhone X. It works great, and when I call her number, 
her iPhone rings. Problem is the ring tone volume is very low. I tried to have 
her use the volume up button to increase the volume, but the tone stops when 
she does that. What I don’t understand is when she goes into the sound 
settings, the ring tone is at a great volume. How do I tell her to increase the 
ring tone volume? I called Apple, and they finally recommended making a trip to 
the Apple store.

 

Any ideas? I think this is a simple fix, but I don’t know what to do.

 

Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

RE: Getting the ring tone volume louder on an iPhone X when the phone rings

[Rob Armstrong]

I, too, was unsuccessful raising the ringer volume using the volume up button 
even though the corresponding setting is turned on.  I suggest you go into 
settings and adjust the ringer volume up more.  When you change the volume in 
settings, the phone will play the ring tone at the new volume.  Even if you 
then lower the volume back to the level it was at before, adjusting it in 
settings may solve the problem.

RE: Siri and text messaging

[Rob Armstrong]

Whenever I use SIRI, I hold the home button on my SE3 down until I finish 
talking.  That has always worked for me.  I don’t use “Hey Siri”.

 

When writing a text message, I use the dictate icon that is to the left of the 
space bar.  With VoiceOver, I use a 1 finger double-tap to start dictation and 
a 2 finger double-tap to stop dictation.

Google Maps - Turn Off Extra Speech While Driving

[Rob Armstrong]

I mostly use Google Maps to get directions for sighted drivers.  I get the
normal navigation directions from the female voice that Google Maps uses.
But I also get much too frequent additional guidance for the next turn from
my VoiceOver / Siri male voice.  I have checked, and the setting in Google
Maps for detailed navigation directions while walking is turned off.  

 

I think I remember turning something on some time ago, but i can't remember
what is was.  And I can't find any other setting to turn off.

 

I appreciate any thoughts what I can turn off to stop the extra speech from
the VoiceOver / Siri voice.

RE: Downcast and Alternatives

[Rob Armstrong]

I have 3 suggestions for Downcast.

1.  At the bottom of the list of unplayed episodes of a podcast there is a 
"View other available episodes" button.  Double-tap that button to reveal 
episodes you have already played.  You can scroll down the list to find the 
episode you didn't finish listening to.

2.  Move back so you are displaying the list of podcasts you have subscribed 
to.  Double-tap the "More" tab in the bottom right corner of the screen.  Then 
double-tap the Settings button.  Locate the "Episodes to keep" heading.  
Double-tap the item just below this heading.  It might say "All unplayed, but 
it might say something else.  After you double-tap, you will be in a list of 
choices for which episodes to keep.  One of your choices is to keep all 
episodes.  When you have made your choice, press the "Back" button until you 
get back to the items in the More tab.  Then double-tap the "Podcasts" tab in 
the lower left corner of the screen to get back to your list of podcasts.

3.  The choices you make in Settings in the More tab are global settings that 
apply to all of your podcasts.  You can also customize the settings for a 
specific podcast by double-tapping that podcast to open the list of episodes.  
Then double-tap "Podcast Settings" in the bottom right corner of the screen.  
There you can change any settings that you want to be different for this 
specific podcast.

Subject: Downcast and Alternatives

Hi,

I’ve been using Downcast and generally enjoy it. The two features I enjoy most 
are the ability to use chapter support as well as the ability to export 
episodes to Dropbox, but one thing that drives me absolutely nutty about 
Downcast are missing episodes. This morning I was listening to an episode, took 
the dog out, and lost Internet connection. When I came back in, the episode I 
was listening to had vanished. It seems to get rid of episodes it thinks I have 
finished listening. I’m glad it thinks it’s being helpful, but I’d like to keep 
the complete list of episodes available regardless of play time.

First, is there a way to fix this issue on Downcast?

Second, are you using an alternative podcast player you know will give me the 
two features I love and avoid the feature I despise? I keep hearing Jonathan 
Mosen talk about Castro, and my only hesitation to check it out is the 
subscription model. I don’t mind subscription plans, but for this sort of 
thing, I would rather pay a large lump sum up front.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Joe

RE: Potential bug when creating a new contact from an unknown caller

[Rob Armstrong]

I’m not sure which iOS version you have.

 

I had this problem recently with iOS 12.4.  I couldn’t enter anything into the 
first name field.  I selected another field like last name.  I entered 
something there.  Then I was able to go back to the first name field and 
successfully enter the name.

Subject: Potential bug when creating a new contact from an unknown caller

 

Hi,

 

It would be great if someone could confirm this or else tell me what I’m doing 
wrong.

 

Whenever I get a call from an unknown number for which I want to create a new 
contact, I find I can’t type anything into any of the edit fields such as first 
or last name or email. This is true with both the onscreen keyboard as well as 
a bluetooth keyboard.

 

Simply adding a new contact (not from an unknow number) works fine. 

 

If this is a bug I will report it to Apple.

 

Thanks,

Kim

RE: Adding a recent call to Contacts.

[Rob Armstrong]

Focus on the phone number in the Recents tab of the Pone app.

Swipe up or down until you can double-tap "More Info".

There are buttons near the bottom for "Create New Contact" and "add to Existing 
Contact".

iCloud - Entering The 2-Factor Authentication Code

[Rob Armstrong]

I have received a dialog box on my computer twice in the last couple of days
asking me to sign on to iCloud.  After I enter my password, I receive a text
message on my iPhone with an authentication code that I have to enter.  I
have done this twice, but the message says that I entered the wrong code.  I
am very sure that I entered the correct code from the text message.

 

I have signed on to iCloud using the 2-factor authentication several times
before.  But now it doesn't accept the code I enter.

 

Any hints what I can do?

RE: ID caller

[Rob Armstrong]

These instructions are using the last release of iOS 12.  

Double-tap Settings.
Scroll down and double-tap Phone.
The first item under the Calls heading is:  
Announce Calls.  VoiceOver will say what the value is for the Announce Calls 
item.  iOS 12
Double-tap the Announce Calls item and choose from the following options:
Always
Headphones and car
Headphones only
Never

Double-tap Always.
I recommend pressing the back button in the upper left corner a couple of times 
to get back to the main Settings screen.
Then press the Home button or use the gesture to close the Settings app.

RE: need advice

[Rob Armstrong]

I have not updated to iOS 13, so I don't know if things have changed.

This is based on the last version of iOS 12.

Go to Settings.
Double-tap Touch ID and Passcode.

You have to enter your Passcode before you can continue to see the next screen.
The first heading is "Use touch ID for".
Turn off any of the items that are on.

The next heading is "FINGERPRINTS".
There will be a button like "Finger 1" for each fingerprint you have created.  
You can double-tap the button.  Then you will find a button to delete the 
fingerprint.

On the next page of Touch ID and Passcode settings, you will find entries for:
Turn Passcode off
Require Passcode

Hope this helps.

RE: When edit fields are dimmed out

[Rob Armstrong]

You probably need to find the tab or link that will allow you to edit the 
payee.  You probably cannot edit the payee while in the process of making a 
payment.

If you can't figure it out, let us know which banking app you are using.  Then 
maybe someone has the app and can help further.

Hello again, Friends,

My banking APP, like so many we get used to, in a recent update has made it 
very difficult to do some tasks that used to be easy.  I want to send some 
spending loot to one of my grandsons who's in college but doesn't use Zelle.  
But I can't find a way to change his address to the place he's living at 
school.  I can check the appropriate box to make a payment to his account, but 
his name is dimmed out so that I can't double-tap on it as I used to do.  When 
fields are dimmed out in voiceOver, what can one do?  I've contacted my bank.  
I've tried to add him again as a new payee, and nothing seems to work.  Any 
ideas or suggestions will be very helpful.  I am reluctant to ask for sighted 
help on this, and shouldn't have to.  Thanks in advance for any help in this.


Peace & Blessings,

RE: latest itunes update

[Rob Armstrong]

If you open iTunes on your PC or Mac, you will most likely get a dialog box 
that says a new version is available.  There will be a link in the dialog box 
to download and install the update.

When you press the space bar or Enter on the download button it may 
automatically do everything.  Or it may take you to the web site where you have 
to download the update.

I download music to my iPhone using the Phone Drive app.  I have a separate

The only thing I have not figured out is how to play an entire folder of

while a song is playing, but they don't do what I want.

 

Does anyone else use Phone Drive who has figured out how to play a folder of
music?

Touch in the body of the email message.
Use the rotor gesture until you reach "Text Selection".  If you move through 
all the choices in the rotor without hearing "Text Selection", then you need to 
first go to Accessibility Settings for VoiceOver and add "Text Selection" to 
the rotor.
Now that you are on "text Selection" in the rotor, swipe up or down until you 
reach "Select All" and double-tap.
Use the rotor gesture to move to "Edit".
Swipe up or down until you reach "Copy" and double-tap.

RE: Question and problem with sync iPhone contacts

[Rob Armstrong]

I use iCloud to sync my contacts and calendar between my Windows 10 computer 
running Outlook 2013 and my iPhone SE.

 

I probably cannot give a blow by blow description how to set this u. But if you 
are interested in trying this approach, you can email me directly.  We can 
figure it out together.

RE: Voicemail says no voicemail but when someone calls me it says my voice mail is full

[Rob Armstrong]

I am working from memory, so you may have to play around with the screens a 
little.

 

Obviously, start by double-tapping the Phone app.

Double-tap the Voicemail tab at the bottom of the screen.

Double-tap the Edit button in the upper right corner of the screen.

You will probably find a lot of voicemail messages you have already listened to.

Swipe down with 1 finger on voicemail messages from people that you want to 
delete.  The first time I did this, I did not find a Delete option.  But after 
I double-tapped on “More Info” and then hit “back” or “previous screen”, then 
the “Delete” option showed up when I swiped down on the Voicemail.

Unfortunately, you have to swipe down a couple of times on each message to get 
the delete option.

Go through your old voicemails and delete the ones you no longer need to keep.

After you finish, you will find a button for “Deleted Voicemails” at the bottom 
of the list.

Double-tap this button.

Then scroll to the end of the list of deleted voicemails.

Double-tap the “clear all deleted voicemails” button at the bottom of the list.

Double-tap the confirmation button.

Now you have freed up space for new voicemail messages.

 

Good luck.

 

Rob

RE: moving an app from 1 page to another wasn't announcing direction

[Rob Armstrong]

Here is part of a post I found on Applevis.com.

Moving Apps Becomes A Drag, Sort Of

Last autumn, Apple introduced a new way of moving apps around the various Home 
Screens via the rotor. The primary change to this method is that dragging of 
multiple apps is now an option. In iOS 11, instead of swiping up to “Arrange 
Apps,” the touchscreen VoiceOver user must double-tap and hold to invoke “Edit 
Mode.” For Bluetooth keyboard and Braille display users, you can still press up 
or down arrow, or space with dot 3 or 6, to move to “Edit Mode”.

Once you are in “Edit Mode,” you still will need to first locate the app you 
wish to drag. You have the options of delete, drag, or stop editing apps. Note 
that if you are in “Edit Mode,” and you wait about thirty seconds, iOS 11 will 
automatically exit you from this mode. If you wish to move an app, find it, and 
then select “Drag.” Then navigate to the place you wish to “Drop” the app, and 
choose the appropriate option. Your options are to drop it before, after, or to 
create a folder with the app VoiceOver focus is set to. You can also drop an 
app within a folder.

The final option is to “Add To Drag Session.” This option will allow you to 
move multiple apps at once. When multiple apps are added, you can still “drop” 
them before; after; add the app currently in focus to your “drag session”; add 
to a folder if one is in VoiceOver’s focus; or create a folder with these apps 
and the app currently in focus. This comes in handy when you wish to drop 
several apps into a folder, and wish to add apps at the same time from various 
Home screens. I’ve only tested adding four apps to one “drag session,” but 
found it worked effectively.

Moving apps around is good practice for using the “Drag and Drop” method on the 
iPad. While it works on the iPhone and iPod Touch for the purposes written 
above, it’s also possible to, for example, add a file in the Files app to a 
drag session, switch to the Mail app, and attach that file to a message you are 
composing by “dropping” the file in the Mail application.

Also, here is a podcast that demonstrates moving an app.

Hi folks
While I was move an app from 1 place to another, the voiceover didn't say the

So, could you please explain to me what I might have been doing wrong?

RE: Cardio blood pressure monitor

[Rob Armstrong]

Yes, the Qardio blood pressure monitor does support multiple users.

Note that the name of the monitor begins with the letter Q and not C.  It is 
spelled Q a r d i o.

You download the Qardio app and pair it with the QardioArm blood pressure 
monitor.

I put a podcast on Applevis 3 years ago describing the setup and use.  Below is

RE: What can cause delays in texts being received?

[Rob Armstrong]

I had the problem of delayed text messages a few years ago with AT  I found 
that AT had closed a small store that was near my house.  When they closed 
the store, they obviously removed the AT cell phone tower near the store that 
provided customers with excellent reception while shopping in the store.

When my contract with AT was up in a couple of months, I switched to Verizon 
and have not experienced any text message delays or dropped phone calls.

I use Verizon on my IPhone 5s  once in a while a text will show up saying 
3 hours ago or 10 minutes ago.  It probably happens once or twice a month so 
isn't a huge problem but is puzzling.  This sometimes happens with voice mails 
too.  I figured it was a Verizon glitch of some sort I have found no patern to 
when it happens.  .  If it happened consistently with the same person or at the 
same time of day, it might be easier to figure out but no such luck.

I’ve seen this happen sometimes too, especially with Android phones. Maybe 
their model of phone is slower at receiving texts, or TMobile may have spent 
some time sending the message.

RE: passcode

[Rob Armstrong]

You probably need to change the setting for your preferred typing style.  Go to:

Settings

General

Accessibility

VoiceOver

Typing Style

I think the choice called “Standard typing” will work the way you want.  You 
move your finger around the screen until you find the digit or letter you want. 
 Then double-tap to enter it.

RE: Speaker Icon Disappeared

[Rob Armstrong]

There is a button on the screen after you place a call to "hide the keypad".  
When you press this button, then several buttons including "speaker" are 
available.

When I make calls now, the button to switch to speaker phone is no longer

Hello list,

I have an IPhone 5s with current I O S.   My phone no longer says who is
calling.  I can find out by
touching the text near the top of the screen & listening to voice over read it 
but the phone used to say out loud who was calling.  I looked around in 
settings under phone & it does have announce set to always.  
I looked around under notifications / phone.  It says badges, sounds & banners. 
 I think that is everything...

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Sherry Wells

RE: Phone carrier 1 of 4 bars question

[Rob Armstrong]

It means you have a weak cell phone signal at that particular location.  With 
only 1 bar, you may experience a dropped call.

When you are outside or at a different location, check you signal strength 
again.  It will probably be stronger meaning you have 3 or 4 bars.

RE: 3 important questions

[Rob Armstrong]

I will tackle the second question about changing the volume.

 

There are 2 ways to change the volume.  

 

The first way does not involve the rotor.  In fact, I do not have “volume” in 
my rotor.  Let’s say you want to change the volume of VoiceOver.  Do anything 
to get VoiceOver speaking.  Press the volume up or volume down button on the 
left side of the phone while VoiceOver is talking to increase or decrease the 
volume.  You can use this method to change the volume of the phone ringer, 
playing music or podcasts, and just about anything else.  

 

In order to be able to flick up or down to change the volume, you first need to 
add “volume” to the rotor.  If you are very new to using the iPhone, the rotor 
may not be the first skill you want to learn.  Follow these steps.

Double tap Settings.

Double tap General.

Double tap Accessibility.

Double tap “VoiceOver On”.

Flick right until you reach “Rotor”.

Double tap “Rotor”.

Now you are in a list of things you can add to the rotor.  If an item also says 
“selected”, it is already added to the rotor.

Flick right until you locate “Volume”.

If it is not already selected, double tap “rotor” to select it.  This adds the 
item to the rotor.

When you finish adding other things you want in the rotor, double tap the 
“back” button in the top left corner of the screen several times to return to 
the main settings screen.

 

Since I do not have “volume” in my rotor, the next instructions may not be 
absolutely correct.  But here is how I think it should work.

Twist the rotor until you reach the “Volume” setting.

Then, when you want to change the volume of something that is currently talking 
or playing, flick up or down.

Remember that flicking up or down changes or acts on whatever setting the rotor 
is on at that time.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Rob

Help With iCloud For Windows And Outlook

[Rob Armstrong]

I am setting up a new Windows 10 computer.  I installed iCloud 6.2.2 since
the first dialog in the most recent version seemed less accessible.

 

I opened iCloud on the pc and signed in to my Apple ID.  I found check boxes
for photos, bookmarks, and iCloud drive.  I want to sync my Outlook calendar
and contacts with my iPhone using iCloud.  All of the articles I have read
from a Google search say there are check boxes for contacts and calendar,
but I cannot find them.

 

I did use iCloud for contacts and calendar in Outlook on my old PC.  I have
not yet copied the iCloud folder from Outlook on the old PC to the new PC
because I thought setting up iCloud on the new PC would create the folders
in Outlook and copy down the contacts and calendar information.

 

If I copy the iCloud folders to the new PC, would that enable the check
boxes to appear in the iCloud dialog box?  Do you have information or an
article containing the steps to move iCloud to a new PC for contacts and
calendar?  I specifically do not want to sync email using iCloud.

 

Rob

RE: iPhone SE

It sounds like the cable you use to connect the iPhone to the computer may be 
bad.  Another possibility is the lightning port on the iPhone SE is damaged or 
may contain lent.

I would first ask a friend to bring their USB cable over for you to try 
connecting your iPhone SE using the friend's cable.  

Do you use the same cable to connect the iPhone and iPod to the computer?

Help a dummy. Quicknav and Apple TV

Hi everyone,
First I hope that this list includes discussion of Apple TV Gen 4. If not, 
sorry and please if someone would direct me to a more appropriate list that 
would be great.
But for now I'm assuming and I know that's dangerous, I can ask this question.
I have the Gen 4 Apple TV. Unbeknownst to me it updated to the latest IOS. I 
assume it's some flavor of 11. Anyway when I fired up voiceover, I was in a 
mode called QuickNav. I can't seem to swipe without a killer delay, and 
sometimes it just won't work at all. I tried the rotor and could not find an 
option to turn on or off this function. A. What is it? And B. how can I return 
to Voiceover working the way I'm used to having it perform.
Thanks for your help.

RE: Poor reception and dropped calls

[Rob]

The problem may not be your phone at all.  Maybe my story will give you an 
avenue of investigation.

About 4 years ago I was using AT  There was a small AT store less than a 
mile from my house.  I always had 5 bars (maximum) signal strength.

All of a sudden, I started experiencing dropped calls and text messages not 
delivered for at least 45 minutes.

I called a local AT store and asked if AT had closed the store near me.  
They said, "Yes."

Apparently, AT had a cell phone tower or signal booster near the store so 
that customers would have good service while shopping in the store.  When they 
closed the store, they removed the signal booster or cell phone tower.  And my 
service degraded significantly.

I told the guy at the AT store that I would drop AT and choose a different 
carrier as soon as my contract ended in a couple of months.

I don't know if this is your problem, but it is something worth checking out.

Lately, we have been dealing with a lot of dropped phone calls. I’m wondering 
how often is this a problem with the specific iPhone, or problem with the 
carrier? I’ve been tempted to switch companies for a while now, but maybe 
before we jump ship, I should bring the iPhone in and have it looked at.

What are your thoughts?

RE: New Phones

[Rob]

If you have a computer, you might connect each current phone to the computer 
and make an encrypted backup using iTunes.  Be sure you take notes with the 
time of each backup and which phone is being backed up.

Then when you get the new phones, connect them to the computer and restore from 
the appropriate backup.  

The only thing I am not absolutely sure of is whether you can restore from an 
older backup than the most recent one.  I have never had to do that.

Solution For iCloud No Longer Works With Outlook 2007

[Rob]

I am passing on this problem and solution in case anyone else has the same
problem.

 

I use Outlook 2007 on my PC and iCloud to sync my calendar and contacts with
my iPhone.  I suddenly lost access to my iCloud calendar on the PC.

 

When I tried to open the calendar or any other iCloud folder on the PC, I
received the following error:

The set of folders cannot be opened. An unexpected error has occurred. MAPI
was unable to load the information service
C:\PROGRA~2\COMMON~1\Apple\INTERN~1\APLZOD.dll. Be sure the service is
correctly installed and configured.

 

A Google search included the following page:

https://www.msoutlook.info/question/icloud-and-outlook-2007-support

 

Microsoft introduced the problem in the June security update.  The solution
involves adding a new entry in the Windows registry.  If you encounter this
problem, read the web page sited above and follow the instructions.  

 

Download the zip file and unzip (extract) the files into a new folder.  

Double click or press "Enter" on the file called
AllowUnregisteredMapiServices.reg

You have to press "Enter" a couple of times to accept messages asking is it
ok to modify the Windows Registry.

 

After that, I could access my calendar and contacts.

 

Hope this helps someone.

RE: Juicebox not Charging

[Rob]

My first Mophie case stopped charging the phone after about 2 years I think.  I 
took it back to the Apple store since I didn't know if the problem was the case 
or the phone.  I had bought both the phone and case from the Apple store and I 
had AppleCare.

 

They determined that the problem was the case and not the phone.  They gave me 
a new case.

Just for the record the Juice box on my 6S now only charges the phone maybe 
20%. At least I have had it a year and 10 months.  Thank goodness my phone was 
one of the 6S models that qualified for the free battery replacement from Apple 
so the extra charging capacity is not quite so important now.

RE: Best practices for making a Word docx file accessible for iPhone reading?

One thing you might consider is using the free Microsoft Word app to read and

Subject: Best practices for making a Word docx file accessible for iPhone 
reading?

 

Hi List,

 

I need some quick guidance before I embark on a project to make a constantly 
edited Word docx file accessible and navigable.

 

I'm on my Homeowners Association board and we are in process of editing our 
covenants and bylaws into a single electronic document. In order for me to be 
most effective and contribute at our discussion meetings, I need to make the 
Word docx file we're using as navigable as possible so I can follow along on my 
iPhone and read the sections being discussed. As the document is pretty much a 
legal document without any images, I'm thinking the main thing I can do is to 
place headings at appropriate places to distinguish document articles which are 
the main sections from lower level sections in order to maintain hierarchy. So, 
I'm planning to get the most recent version of the working docx file and insert 
Heading1, Heading2, Heading3, etc. styles as appropriate. Before doing this, I 
wanted to ask this list if what I'm proposing is the best way to make the 
document navigable. Also, will I need to save the Word docx file containing the 
headings in any special format in order to be able to swipe to those headings 
quickly on my iPhone when participating in a meeting? I believe I've had mixed 
results in the past when trying to open Word docs containing headings in the 
Word app and I seem to recall that saving in filtered html worked better for 
purposes of accessing it on the iPhone. This access primarily consists of 
opening the document in Dropbox where it is housed and navigating to the rotor 
headings item and then single finger swiping to access those various headings.

 

I apologize for the technical nature of my question but I really don't want to 
spend a lot of time doing this if I don't get the results I'm seeking. And 
since the document is going to be shared and edited by at least one other user, 
I want to make sure I follow steps that can be carried forward.

 

Thanks for any suggestions and feel free to write me privately at 
wale...@gmail.com if you think the list would not be interested in your 
responses.

The same problem happens to me sometimes.  I try to remember to wait until the

You can probably solve the problem by turning off the hints in settings -

Item Chooser

[Rob]

I am posting the content of 2 messages I have saved from the list regarding
the item chooser.  Thanks to Chris and Sieghard.

 

Message #1:

Did you know once you bring up item chooser via 2 finger triple tap, you can
then 3 finger swipe left or right to focus on headings, links, form
controls, or all items?  I had know idea!!!  I just thought I'd give it a
whirl, and lookie there!  Surprize

 

Now when you perform a search in Safari, you can bring up item chooser and 3
finger swipe right/left to only show the headings.

  

Message #2:

As for doing a search for a particular item on the screen, you want to
invoke the item chooser. The gesture for this is a 2-finger triple tap.

I suggest again to practice on the home screen. If you have a full
home-screen (20 apps) Plus 4 in the dock, a 2-finger triple tap on the home
screen would have 24 items in the item chooser. They would be sorted in
alphabetical order and at the top of the screen is also a search box and as
you type something there it narrows down the results.

For example, If you have the Camera, Camfind, Calculator, Calendar and Music
apps on the home screen and typed a "C" these 4 apps would be the only ones
left. If you now typed an "A" only Calendar, Camera and Camfind would be
left, now type a "M" and only Camera and Camfind are left etc.

Whatever letter or letter combination you type is what iOS displays, but it
does not have to be at the beginning of the app name hence if you type a "C"
also "Music" shows up in the list because it has a "c" in it at the end.

RE: Measuring Blood Pressure

[Rob]

Bear with me.  This may be a little complicated to describe.

 

First, here is the statement from the manual.

 

RESETTING THE PAIRING ON iOS  

In order to reset the pairing, unwrap the cuff from around the QardioArm to 
switch on the device and use a paper clip to press the button on the pinhole

on the battery compartment hatch. 

If necessary, go into the Settings of your phone or tablet, select the 
QardioArm and select “Forget this device”.  

You should see a green light shining through. 

 

First, I will describe how to find the battery compartment hatch.

 

Slightly lift the cuff from the QardioArm device on the end that does not have 
the engraved QardioArm logo.

Insert and move your finger around between the cuff and the device.

The indented rectangle is the battery compartment hatch.  Press it with your 
fingernail if you want to open the compartment to replace the batteries.  But 
you do not need to open the compartment to reset the device.

There is a small round hole on each side of the battery compartment hatch.

One of these 2 holes should be the hole you insert a paper clip to reset the 
device.  Since I don't want to reset my device, I did not actually insert a 
paper clip into either hole.

 

Hope this works for you.

 

Rob

Hi Robin all. I did purchase my cardio arm from Amazon and I now have it. I've 
got everything screwed up, and I need to find the reset hole. I guess it is 
somewhere within the battery, according to their support team. Does anybody 
know how I can locate those tiny hole in which you shove a paperclip into? Any 
help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Caitlyn,

 

This thread is perfect timing.  Is set up accessible?  This being an arm cuff, 
is it possible to take your own blood pressure?  Currently, we have the wrist 
model.  Can multiple people use the device, and does it connect up to health 
kit on the iPhones?

 

Thank you, I am looking to update our blood pressure monitor.

I can't speak for the Uber app or the service as it is only available in a few 
cities in Canada, but as far as GPS goes it should be accurate enough for this 
purpose. Provided you have a good view of the sky and aren't in a building or a 
super-narrow area surrounded by high-rise buildings GPS accuracy should be 5 
meters (about 16 feet) or for sure it should be 10 metres (about 32 feet). This

RE: Syncing iPhone Calendar with Outlook, Can This Be Done?

[Rob]

I installed iCloud to my PC and moved my calendar and other items to iCloud.  
Now my appointments sync between my PC and iPhone without having to connect the 
iPhone to the PC via iTunes.

 

When you do this, Outlook will create an iCloud folder and add your calendar 
and whatever else you designate into the iCloud folder.  Now all you have to 
remember when looking at your calendar on the PC is to be sure you are looking 
at the one in the iCloud folder.

RE: Uber?

[Rob]

Since I already have an account with Uber, I cannot verify the sign up process. 
 I expect that when you open the Uber app, you will find a "Sign Up" button on 
the first screen.  But I think it would probably be easier to complete the sign 
up process on a computer if you have one.  Whether you sign up in the app or on 
a computer, the information you enter will be the same.

 

To sign up using a computer, go to www.uber.com and look for the "Ride With 
Uber" heading.  The "Sign Up" link is below the heading.

 

You will enter your email address, first name, last name, and create a 
password.  When you finish creating your account, I expect that you will 
proceed to the screen where you enter your method of payment.  You can enter 
your credit card information or you can enter a PayPal account.

 

If you sign up using a computer, you will want to choose the "Sign In" button 
when you open the Uber app.  Then enter your email address and password.

 

You can enter a pickup location and a destination.  Then you can double-tap the 
"Fare Estimate" button.  I don't recommend actually requesting a ride until you 
are ready to go on your first trip using Uber.

 

There are some podcasts that describe using the Uber app with VoiceOver.  A 
podcast on applevis.com at the link below describes setting up an account and 
requesting a ride.

Once you request a ride and the driver accepts the trip, you will find the 
driver's name, his model of car, and an "Options" button.  The "Options" menu 
includes buttons that allow you to send a text message to the driver or call 
the driver.  This is useful if you need to tell the driver exactly where you 
are.

Hi all,

A couple of months ago I added Uber to IPhone6 and turned Uber Siri setting on.

I never used Uber but wondering how do I pay for a ride?  

I did not enter a credit card number so any information appreciated. 

Can I practice on App without really booking a ride?

Thanks,

Ann

Yes, you can order Uber if you allow app access but I am afraid since
it does not ask destination and does not give other choices such as

Is there a free update for Navigon maps?  I have had Navigon for several years. 
 Usually, there is a free map update about once a year.  But I haven't seen any

Hello Jed,

I’m just getting to grips with the new look of Navigon.
In the Map Manager, no maps are downloaded automatically. You have to 
double-tap with one finger on each map that you want, then go to the bottom of 
the list and double-tap on Accept Changes or whatever it says. The selected 
maps will then start downloading, and beside each will be the amount already 
downloaded followed by a slash and the full size of the map. Clicking on the 
Open button must do something visual because all I find is a Close button.
I had to uninstall and reinstall Navigon to make the Map Manager do its job.

Cheers,

When I looked at Battery Life usage statistics just now, I noticed that Siri

on screen. When is Siri on screen except maybe now when I'm dictating or when I 
ask it a questionor does the dictation still count for mail usage, since I am 
using the Mail program. I guess I'm trying to figure out what they mean by Siri 
on screen. I certainly have not use the regular Siri functionality for anything 
approaching 44 minutes. And I doubt, even if you take into account all of the 
dictations, that I have used that for 44 minutes during the past 24 hours. I'm 
still having much too rapid battery drain, and I'm trying to figure out why.

RE: Best Mail Apps

[Rob]

I have some thoughts regarding your email delete problem, but I am far from 
being an expert.

You said that you have tried the Gmail app.  So I assume you have a Gmail 
account.  If you are using the IMAP email protocol, I think it deletes the mail 
from the server and all other devices when you delete a message from your 
iPhone.  But I do not use IMAP, so I could be wrong.

If you use POP3 email protocol, you can change settings on your iPhone to 
"never delete from the server".  To do this:
Go to Settings > "Mail, Contacts, Calendars"
Then double tap your email address.
Scroll down and double tap the "Advanced" button.
Double tap the "Delete from server" button.
You have 3 choices for when to delete mail from the server.  Your choices are:
•   Never
•   7 Days
•   When removed from Inbox

Double tap the one you want.
Double tap the "Back" button In the upper left corner of the screen to go back 
to the "Advanced" settings page.
Double tap the "Back" button in the upper left corner of the screen again to go 
back to the settings for your email account.
Double tap the "done" button in the upper right corner of the screen to save 
the changes you made.  If you don't want to save any changes, double tap the 
"Cancel" button in the upper left corner of the screen.

Hope this helps.

All,

I likeApple's default Mail app quite a bit. However, the inability to delete 
posts from the phone without them also going to the trash on the server rather 
than archive is a huge downside given the limited space I have and the amount 
of mail I receive.

I have tried the Gmail app but I don't find it very satisfying; it's just as 
easy to use the webmail interface.

Are there any other good third-party mail apps or should I continue to look for 
a solution to the archiving problem?

RE: emails not being removed from mail

[Rob]

I am not clear what your ultimate goal is for deleting messages.  For this 
discussion, I will only consider 2 devices, a computer, and an iPhone.

 

There are 2 different email protocols.  The IMAP protocol used by Gmail and 
others essentially keeps all of your email folders and messages on the mail 
server.  When you delete an email from 1 device, it is deleted from all devices 
since it actually resides at the provider's server.

 

The older email protocol is POP3 which downloads the email messages to your 
device.  I do not know which email protocol Verizon supports, but I expect you 
use POP3 protocol based on your questions.  The rest of this discussion talks 
about the POP3 protocol.

 

You first need to decide which device you consider to be your primary device 
for reading and saving email.  For example, I primarily use my computer for 
email.  I have my computer set to delete email messages from the provider's 
server when I download the message to my computer.  I have set my iPhone to 
never delete email messages from the provider's server.  So when I am away from 
my computer, I can check email on the phone.  When I open my email client from 
the computer, all of the messages (including the ones I saw on the phone) 
download to the PC and are deleted from the provider's server.  I quickly 
delete the ones I have already read unless it is a message I wanted to save for 
later use.

 

Here is how to change what happens to an email message on your iPhone.

 

Double tap Settings.

Scroll down and double tap "Mail, Contacts, and Calendars".  This will probably 
be on the second page.

Under the Accounts heading, locate your email address, and double tap it.

Swipe up with 3 fingers to scroll down the list of mail settings.  Double tap 
the "Advanced" button.

Under the "INCOMING SETTINGS" heading, find the "Delete From Server" button.

You have 3 choices for when to delete mail from the server.  Your choices are:

· Never

· 7 Days

· When removed from Inbox

 

Double tap the one you want.

Double tap the "Back" button In the upper left corner of the screen to go back 
to the "Advanced" settings page.

Double tap the "Back" button in the upper left corner of the screen again to go 
back to the settings for your email account.

Double tap the "done" button in the upper right corner of the screen to save 
the changes you made.  If you don't want to save any changes, double tap the 
"Cancel" button in the upper left corner of the screen.

 

I hope this helps.  You may have to experiment with different settings on both 
your computer and phone to determine what works best for you.

to your town.

Hmmm, can anyone get this, or is it like Time Warner where you have to have 
Charter to have it. Can Time Warner customers get this thing yet? I know their 
app has gone backwards in accessibility in that I can't get on demand to play 
any more from ios. This solution might be better.

Subject: Spectrum TV App

 

Hello,

 

Has anyone had any experience with this app?  I just recently subscribed to the 
Spectrum Stream which is Charter’s answer to Sling TV.  The app is pretty 
accessible, and with at least TBS it has the ability to swap to the Spanish SAP 
feed and get video description.  It doesn’t seem to be able to do the same for 
the local networks.  So, trying to find out if it’s Charter not doing this in 
the app .. or my local channels not passing it on.  Just wondering if anyone 
else has used this app and if they are getting the DVS feeds ..

 

Thanks ...

RE: nearby explorer for IOS pod cast

I don't know about OOTunes.  But the podcast on Blind Geek Zone is not yet 
available in iBlink Radio.  So I conclude that different podcast aggregators 
must receive their updates at different times.

RE: Uber Newbie Questions

[Rob]

What is the procedure if you just want to find out how much a specific ride 
would cost?  Set the pickup location and then enter the destination.  Then 
double tap the Fare Estimate button.  The app will not give you an exact price, 
but it will give you a price range for the trip.  The price is based on the 
amount of time as well as the mileage.  So the actual price may vary depending 
on traffic, red lights, etc.

while I was exploring the app, I noticed that the app indicated that a driver 
was 11 minutes away then 9 minutes then
7 minutes.  Shortly thereafter, it reported that "No driver available". 
Could someone explain this behavior?

It appears that you had not yet requested an Uber ride.  I expect that a driver 
was coming closer to your location, and then he turned off his app.  He may 
have reached his house or stopped to get something to eat etc.  In any case he 
was no longer available to accept new ride requests.

Navigon Update - Good And Bad News

[Rob]

Navigon GPS app recently released version 2.16 update.  This version fixed the 
problem we had with the previous update.  We can now read the turn by turn list 
of navigation instructions.  This was broken in the previous update.

 

But Navigon has dramatically changed the user interface of the app.  It is now 
very map centric.  The familiar menu structure is gone.  I think the features 
are still available, but you will have to explore the various buttons and menus 
to find them.

 

I have only just begun learning the new interface.  So I cannot give any tips 
yet.

 

Rob

Subject: accessible knitting patterns app

 

Hi,

 

In the past, I've used the Lion Brand app to find knitting patterns. The search 
was accessible, and I could read the patterns with a braille display. However, 
this app crashes with iOS 10 betas. Does anyone know of another accessible app 
for finding and reading knitting patterns? I looked on AppleVis, but there was 
nothing.

 

Thanks,

Anna
