phone not ringing on all calls
I'm having a strange issue. Every once in a while I'll find I have a missed call and sometimes a voicemail and I'll think to myself, huh? how could that be? I never felt my phone vibrate nor heard it ring. I would also have people tell me I tried to call you but you didn't answer, and sure enough I'll go to missed calls and indeed see where that person has tried to call me. I've powered off and on the phone and still every once in a while a call will slip through and not ring. Do not disturb is off and this doesn't happen on every call either, I'd say maybe once every few days or so? Anyone else have this issue? I have the 4s running ios7.03. Is this a phone issue or an issue with verizon? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Apple's iOS has created a system whereby we have a better than 50% chance that any app we purchase will be at least partially accessible. This is far better than any other platform on the market, whilst respecting the app developer's right to develop and sell any type of app which brings or enhances functionality to the iPhone. This is, indeed, the best system out there. Because we are not suing people, they are actually more willing to work collaboratively with us, and the developers who do not work with us usually have competition which is willing to work with us. As for the development of the gesture-based screen reader, it was well-known by everybody, including the NFB, that blind people would not be able to use a gesture-based screen reader. The standard proposals before VoiceOver came out on the iPhone 3 GS included some form of button-based tactile overlay which would be attached to the iPhone so blind people could successfully use it. As this topic relates directly to my research, if anyone has any credible source information that is different from the above (which all the literature I have located thus far fully supports), please send me the source citations so I can evaluate, and possibly use them. As for the NFB, I recall that organisation becoming rather upset at Apple a few years ago because Apple ignored requests from NFB for Apple to send a highly placed staff member to the NFB's national convention for a reward on behalf of the organised blind? As I understand it, this perceived snub of the NFB by Apple encouraged a series of comparisons between Apple and other products in the Braille Monitor which all demonstrated that Apple's accessibility was very much sub-par in comparison to these other devices. I would suggest you not pursue this line that the NFB had any influence over Apple, because I have a very strong suspicion that the NFB will not be shown in a very positive light if we examine the materials from that period of time.

Hold on a second. lol. The law suit you speak of was filed in 2006. By this time, Apple had already put out Mac OSX 10.4 Tiger which contained the Voiceover screen reader. The courts Ruled in favor of the NFB lead suit in September 2007. By this time, the iPhone had only been out 3 months. The actual settlement wrapped up in September 2008. By June 2009, Voiceover was on the new iPhone 3Gs. So where exactly in that timeline did the NFB have the time to turn their sites on Apples lack of accessibility? I think you might be overstating the NFB’s influence quite a bit here. I mean, since you said “fresh off” that would leave the NFB with only 8 months to turn their sights on Apple before Voiceover was introduced on the iPhone. So obviously, Voiceover and iOS 3.0 wasn’t developed in 8 months. The way Apple tells it, they had every intention of adding a screen reader to IOS. It took them over 2 years to actually come up with a multi touch gesture based screen reader. But with that aside, I think the word “partner” when speaking about Apple and developers of IOS Apps should be used loosely. I mean, there are literally tens of thousands of developers creating and supporting hundreds of thousands of apps. Apple has made the platform accessible, and has made literature easily available for developers to insure accessibility in their apps. In my opinion, Apple has done their job. It’s now up to us to interact with the developers like we’ve been doing to make sure

By law, all carrier's towers must transmit emergency calls for free. Therefore, you are being told that you can make an emergency call to 911 if necessary.

Re: When will Apple take this seriously?
I agree Sieghard, hanging up a call with 2 finger doubletap works a lot better. Perhaps he needs to do a full restore as suggested many times on here if you come across a really buggy phone. I'm running ios7.03 and I noticed the bugs are pretty gone at this point, even the one I wrote apple about with the speaker phone issue.

Hello, Here is my summary of this entire thread: The original poster complained about 3 items and pointed out a fourth: 1. Hanging up phone calls is unreliable 2. He can't tap on a phone number in a text message or email to dial it or save it to contacts 3. Filling out web forms is buggy. 4. Things worked better on his old Nokia with Talks. Then Pablo jumped in with his well-known rant about how horrible Apple is in general because they make such expensive and terrible devices which don't work, where people are forced to upgrade to iOS 7 and where generally accessibility is terrible and where Pablo's rights are violated in a number of ways. As for Pablo's arguments, I have actually agreed with him in a very general way that Apple should give people the option to say if they wanted a new iOS to download automatically or not. At first I didn't see his point, but he argued this point well and I agree there should be such an option. However, this is in my view the only issue. Apple is not forcing anybody to upgrade to iOS 7. Yes, they are pushing the update and it takes up space on your phone, but you do not have to install it and I'll challenge anybody who says that iOS 7 magically installed on their phone without them doing anything or twice agreeing to the terms and conditions which simply does not happen. If Apple were to allow down the road that one could turn off the automatic downloading then nobody including Pablo could complain in any way because at that point if they upgrade it is entirely their choice. It's already their choice, but let's say somebody has an 8 Gb phone and they really need to free up that space so they install it, that is just a little big of pressure there even though you still decide to put up with iOS 7 in return for getting back 2 Gb of space on your phone. Now, as to the 4 items above: 1. Hanging up calls is unreliable I actually find the 2-finger double tap works better in iOS 7 but that is just my opinion. I think it's pretty safe to say though that it works at least as well and I have up to this point and it's now 2 months since iOS 7 was released, not seen a single post where somebody asked about or mentioned a problem with the 2-finger double tap to hang up. There is of course the other way to hang up a call which works 100% and that is to touch the End Cal lbutton which is really not hard to find as it's right there about the ome Key and to double tap it. As somebody else pointed out, it's not hard to check whether a call was hung up or is still connected. 2. He can't tap on a phone number in a text message or email to dial it or save it to contacts This works flawlessly for me and judging by what others wrote also for them. A simple double tap on a phone number asks me whether I want to call it, a double tap and hold brings up the options to call, add to contacts etc. I'd really like to see how this isn't working on Avnish's phone who I think was the one who posted that all of this didn't work. 3. Filling out web forms is buggy. This one I understand is an issue, I can't comment too much on it since I don't use Safari much to fill out web forms. I have done a few Google searches andwas able to type in a search term just find, the same on the Audible site. Anyhow, if it is buggy then I sure hope those who find this so horrible have written to Apple about it. To me this is like voting. If I talk to somebody about politics and they start a big rant about the government I usually ask first if they voted in the last election. More than once somebody said that they don't vote in which case I usually tell them that they might as well shut up then because if they don't participate in electing the government then they have no right to

Re: The best object recognition app out there I know
About viz wiz, I sent a picture of myself to them just to test it out and asked them what the image was. I got a response from a web worker saying image of the terrist, no joke, made me wonder if they were just giving me a smart elic answer just to blow me off, I am a human beeing, not a terrist. - Original Message - From: David Chittenden To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, November 08, 2013 7:23 PM Subject: Re: The best object recognition app out there I know Well, that depends on what you require, and how you prefer to pay your costs. VizWiz will do the same as TapTapSee, and it even has the means for you to ask a question along with your picture. In fact, a question is required. It is a free app. It accesses a couple of the internet image databases to see if it can get a good match. It also sends the query to a volunteer for identification. And, you can choose which of the above you want it to do. However, because it accesses the image databases at free access, its queries do not have priority when access is in strong demand. Also, the volunteers are just that, people who are doing other things on their computers and have a window that pops up with your image and your question. If no volunteers are available, or if there are too many images waiting for identification, your query will take a considerable amount of time. I have gotten responses back immediately, and I have gotten responses back in a few minutes, and I have not gotten responses back at all. When I used it and TapTapSee, I usually try VizWiz first because I can ask the question. For money recognition, I always use LookTel Money Identifier. It is fast, accurate, and no data is sent. For product recognition of products I already have acquired good images for, I use LookTel Recognizer. I occasionally have sighted friends take pictures for my database. In all honesty, save when I used TapTapSee to compare it with VizWiz when it initially was released, I don't use the app. I had two reasons for my decision. First, because I knew people were playing with the app, and I knew the company was paying for every image, I did not want to increase the burden on the company when I could get alternative solutions to work. Second, I have always preferred asking the question because, the information I need is not necessarily the information a sighted identifier thinks I need. With barcode objects, I occasionally use DigitEyes. When out somewhere, I occasionally use CamFind because I know this product is general market, has ads to help fund it, and gives me product and price information. When I have good WiFi, I will occasionally use Talking Goggles. However, the company already went out once because Google changed the access for the video stream recognition matching, and as far as I know, this may happen again at any time. So, I do not want to become reliant on this product.

You get what you pay for. Talking Goggles is written for a much larger market of sighted people, so they can make money from ads that are targeted to their market. Also, you must use the video stream, so you need a good wifi connection. I have never gotten individual pictures to work with this app. Finally, as you found, the developer has not put much effort into accessibility. All that said, when the video stream is good and the wifi is strong, I have received nice success with this app. Because video data is data intensive, I usually will not use this app over 3g or 4g as it will more quickly use up my mobile data allotment for the month.

The fact is, the company has been losing money on TapTapSee ever since they started it. We have been enjoying the company's charity for us until now when the bill has finally come due. I have always wondered how long the company would continue being able to fund us, and I wondered how badly we would take it when we learned that there is actually an ongoing cost for our support. I was not surprised at all, on either side. I do wish, however, that my suspicion of how people would react when finally asked to contribute toward the ongoing costs, had been incorrect.

Maybe it is or maybe it isn't, and information like the below can help explain the charges they came up with, but this isn't the same as claiming people are refusing to pay or are acting like they're being betrayed. In a world where so many apps are just a few dollars for a one time charge, I can certainly understand why people, blind and sighted alike, would pause over paying $10 a month. This isn't unlike the pause people had when paying for the Seeing Eye GPS app, which was also on a subscription basis, and cost more than your run of the mill app. On 11/07/2013 12:11 PM, David Chittenden wrote: The fact is, during their campaign on KickStarter last year to raise the funding for CamFind, they reported that TapTapSee was costing them $150 USD per day to run. I am sure the cost for them is even higher than that amount now since TapTapSee has become even more popular. Unlike the other two apps you mention, TapTapSee sends the image to paid sighted staff if image matching does not come up with a 100% match.

Of course when Fleksy which I think started out at $14.99, went free after first dropping to $4.99 just as many people complained because they wanted Fleksy right away so they spent the money. Well, it happens all the time, prices go up and just because Tap Tap See was free that doesn't mean it has to remain so or should remain so. After all, the people behind Tap Tap See do have to have to live as well. What if Tap Tap See had started out costing $4.99 for 100 pictures and then went up to $7.99, would people have complained as much? I think the most important thing, however, is that everybody who has something to say regarding the cost whether it's good or bad should also CC cont...@taptapseeapp.com because the developer, Image Searcher, is who really needs to hear this. If people want them to reconsider their model or pricing they have to let them know and it's not reasonable to assume or expect that they should monitor the list for all these messages. Before I found the Tweet on their website confirming that they are switching to a subscription or pay per use model, I wrote to them asking for clarification since even right now as I am writing this message I don't have an update nor have I seen any message asking me to pay. I'm sure it's only a matter of time, but since there seemed to be conflicting information out there at first with some getting the message and some not, I just went on their website and send a support email. As I stated before, I will most likely buy the 100 images for $7.99 since occasionally I do find the app extremely useful, but I will probably use Camfind (same developer) and Talking Goggles first and only fall back on Tap Tap See if I can't get a good result. It's not as if there are no alternatives, there are in fact, many and I suspect 100 pictures will last me half a year in which case the price is not an issue. I do, however, agree that $10 a month is a bit steep, in fact, I think a good monthly subscription price would be

Re: Tim Cook Being Sued over Automatic iOS 7 Updates
If I remember correctly, the old IPod touch you did have to set up accessibility with ITunes. Call me lazy but I like that apple devices already come with accessibility, but I see your point, sighted people might not like it. - Original Message - From: Kevin Minor kmi...@windstream.net To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, October 21, 2013 10:42 AM Subject: RE: Tim Cook Being Sued over Automatic iOS 7 Updates I personally don't have a problem with what Apple is doing, but I'm going to play devil's advocate. I think Apple shouldn't include accessibility as a standard feature with their iOs, because it takes up space that I could use for other items. If you want accessibility, you could hook up your iDevice to your computer and use iTunes to get it that way. I think it's wrong for Apple forcing us to get accessibility as a standard feature with our iDevices. As I said, I don't agree with the above logic, but I could see a sighted individual thinking this way. Oh, and while we're at it, Siri could also be seen as a feature that Apple shouldn't include because not everybody will want it or use it. I'm not sending this out to change minds, it's just a different way to look at things. I hope Apple always keeps accessibility as part of the iOs. Have a great day, and don't work too hard.

Re: Problem when answering call: speaker activated
Before I say hello I take my phone away from my ear and put it back to my ear. Annoying, but it will work for now. - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, October 19, 2013 2:42 PM Subject: RE: Problem when answering call: speaker activated Hi Fanus, No real solution except using a headset. Before I had my 5S I usually picked up the call with a 2-finger double tap and it usually went to speakerphone. I would say Hello and just a sec, then I'd wait a couple of seconds and put my phone to the ear and it would usually be OK. The good thing is that if you sell the phone to a non Voiceover user this problem does not exist because there is no automatic switching. On my 5S this problem is completely gone. I was still on Apple Care and since on my 4S it seemed to get worse and on a few calls it wouldn't switch to the earpiece at all even if I repeatedly put my hand over the earpiece or moved my phone to my ear and away I called Apple, explained the problem and they sent me a new 4S. Since it's an unlocked 64 Gb I at least now can probably get $80 or $100 more than I would have gotten for my 2 year old 4S, typical great service and I think Apple is even more inclined to do this for people who buy at full price directly from them and have Apple Care because I doubt they make quite as much money if they sell phones to big carriers who probably get a discount. Of course I don't know if my new 4S has the same problem since I am not even going to touch it, it goes into the original case I still have along with the original, still wrapped headset and a bunch of extra accessories and I won't even set it up. I can truly say I am selling a new unlocked 4S 64 Gb except that it won't have warranty.

Re: Restoring From THE Cloud
I found this interesting, the other day I didn't arace my whole phone just tapped on reset settings which sets the phone back to factory settings without deleting the data, however even though vo was speaking I had to go into accessibility shortcuts and turn the tripple click home back on, I found that interesting and wondered why I had to do that? - Original Message - From: Ricardo Walker rwalker...@gmail.com To: viphone viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, October 18, 2013 9:21 PM Subject: Re: Restoring From THE Cloud Hi, There’s really no need to connect your device to iTunes. But, the first thing you want to do is, make sure you have iCloud backups turned on. So on your iPhone, since this is the information you want to restore your iPad from, go to settings/iCloud. Now double tap on Storage Backup. Here, will have the option to turn iCloud backups on if it isn’t already, and you can do a backup manually right here on this page. It also shows the date and time of your last iCloud backup if there is one. After insuring you have an iCloud backup, go ahead an erase all data and settings from your iPad again. It will take a little time to do its thing, and of course, Voiceover won’t be on when your iPad restarts. Pressing the home button 3 times will turn on Voiceover though. Where you would find unlock, you might hear Voiceover speaking a bunch of different languages. Double tap on this. Don’t worry, Your device will be in english. Go through the setup process, and you should be asked if you want to restore your device or set up as new. Check to restore from your iCloud backup. hth Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On Oct 18, 2013, at 8:07 PM, Regina Alvarado reggie.alvar...@gmail.com wrote: I hate to be a pest, but I guess I must be to totally get it.

If you are a touch typist, you'll love this keyboard. The keys aren't the wishie-washy kind of keys you find on some portable keyboards. These feel proper and the 5 rubber feet on the bottom keeps the keyboard in place on a flat surface so if you do type fast, you won't have to worry about chasing it all over the table top.

Unfortunetly I have to wait until 2015 to upgrade, who knows they will probably have the 6 out by then. I did find while a bit annoying, but a resonable solution that I can deal with for the 4s speaker problem, I learned this from an apple vis user, as soon as you answer the phone before saying hello, put the phone up to your ear, then take it away, then put it to your ear again and say hello, you should be fine, this so far has worked 100 percent of the time for me, of course unless I forget to do it. - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2013 2:32 PM Subject: RE: Verizon iPhone 5/5s users Hi Tracy, It probably is preinstalled. Just in case, if it is not, here is how it goes in: Take the little wire tool and feel along the right side of the phone (opposite from the volume buttons). You will feel the SIM tray and beneath it is a tiny hole. Put the wire tool in it and push firmly, this will pop the SIM tray out. Make sure you keep the touch screen facing you and that you don't turn the SIM tray upside down, it is smooth on top and has a ridge underneath. Your Nano SIM is tiny, but if you have good feeling in your fingers, you can feel that one corner of the SIM card is cut off a bit. The SIM Card goes into the tray with that corner facing out and up (towards the top of the phone). The SIM tray should slide in easily and the last little bit requires a slight push to lock it into place, if you put the SIM in the wrong way I don't think it will go in.

Grant specifically stated that it was possible to control the individual
app's ability to refresh itself instead of using the global refresh
control found in the general settings.
My apologies for being so vague, I was under the impression that no one

Hello, I was reading about ITunes match, from what I understand unless you download songs to your phone it won't use the storage on your phone, however does it use the storage in the cloud? I'm guessing it would. Reason I'm asking is because I upgraded the storage for my cloud so I was wondering if I wanted to subscribe to match should I buy more? Also with ITunes match can you shuffle your songs and have your phone play on shuffle?

Which is odd, because I was able to stop the download a few days ago by disconnecting the charger, so something has changed. My tests also suggest that the unit downloads the update whether locked or not. So it seems the only way to stop this download now is to turn WiFi off.

Subject: How to Fix the Keyboard Typing Lag with iOS 7 on Older Devices
Some users have noticed that certain older iPhone and iPad models
feel slower after updating to iOS 7. We’ve offered a variety of tips to speed
things up, but one persistent issue that has we’ve been contacted about
regards the mysterious keyboard lag and typing delay that seems to only apply
to older devices, where there is a sizable delay between tapping a key and the
character appearing on screen.
The exact reason for the typing lag is difficult to determine, but a
commonality is that these devices have been updated to iOS 7 from previous iOS
versions, which could suggest some old outdated settings are turning the
keyboard sluggish. Rather than doing a complete restore and clean install of
iOS 7 though, a resolution that has worked fairly well is simply choosing to
reset all settings on the device:
a.. Open Settings and go to “Generalâ€
b.. Choose “Reset†and then select “Reset All Settings†–
confirm the reset twice when asked, you will also need to enter a passcode if
one is set
The iOS device will reboot and show a progress bar indicator as all
settings on the device are trashed and reset to defaults. When finished, the
device will boot up as normal again.
This dumps all customizations and settings to iOS, meaning you’ll
need to do things like bold the font, set your wallpaper, rejoin wi-fi
networks, and make other usability adjustments again, but it does have a
noticeable impact on the keyboard lag issue that has impacted some users, at
least on an iPhone 4, 4S, and iPad 3.
Resetting all settings applies exclusively to settings and does not
delete any data from your device and is not to be confuse with the completely
separate procedure of a full device reset to factory settings, the latter of
which removes everything as if it was a brand new piece of hardware.
There may be a relationship to the lag and the autocorrect
dictionary, and some users have reported success with resetting the
auto-correction dictionary list. In our tests that did not work reliably enough
to recommend it though, and instead the best trick we’ve found so far
involves a universal settings reset.
It is quite likely an upcoming iOS software update will resolve this
issue completely, but in the meantime try out the settings reset, it can help.

I don't think that this turns off Find my iPhone, though. Carol, you do not have to have the Find my iPhone app downloaded for this to work. All you have to do is go into Settings, iCloud and turn on Find my iPhone. The app is only an interface to track down a lost or stolen device from another iDevice. If you, for example, have an iPad and if memory serves me right I think you do, it would make sense to download Find my iPhone to your iPad and, I guess, you could just have it on your iPhone, too, in case your iPad was stolen. I assume most people are more likely to have their iPhone stolen since you would more often have it with you and use it in public. The fact is that you need sighted help anyways whether you use Find my iPhone or iCloud.com to track it since it will show the location of your phone on a map. The so-called Kill Function which Apple has built into iOS 7 makes it much more difficult for a thief to actually get something out of the phone since like I said before, it prevents somebody from turning off Find my iPhone. I do think one can still wipe or restore the phone especially if no passcode has been set. Of course if Ahmed had a passcode on his phone it would make it yet harder for the thief to benefit from steeling the phone. Eileen, I think security is actually one of the main reasons to upgrade to a 5S especially if you are still on a 4 or 4S and would also benefit from the better processor, better camera and other new features. I completely agree with what they said during the keynote regarding how most people can't be bothered setting up a passcode and that Touch ID makes having your phone secured a lot easier. Of course there are people who think Apple collects all these fingerprints and passes them on to the NSA or FBI or whatever, but I somehow doubt that and in any case, many countries have and many more will add fingerprints to passports and I couldn't care less if the NSA had my fingerprint on file since I am not doing anything wrong or illegal and don't plan to start. In a way this is a bit like car theft. An iPhone without a passcode is really not so different from an unlocked car with the keys in the ignition. However, if you lock your car and have an alarm or even GPS on it (equivalent to a passcode and turning on Find my iPhone) it's a lot harder to steel it. OK, so yes, it's still easy to steel an iPhone as opposed to a car since you can grab it and run away with it and the thief may not know whether it is secured or not, but hopefully over time as more andmore people employ these security measures the theft of iPhones will drop because thieves may not want to take the risk that the device is useless to them and that they might even be tracked down. I heard of one case on the Today in iOS Podcast where a couple of guys stole a ladies iPhone in California. They then went to the beach and had fun taking pictures of each other not realizing that said lady had Photostream turned on and that all the pictures of them were nicely uploaded to her computer. She printed out a few and since she also had Find my iPhone turned on, the police tracked the phone and easily identified the thieves based on the pictures.

Hello, I'm so sorry that this happened to you. The advise that Sieghard gave in going to the police is wise. Last year, my younger son was held up in San Francisco at gun point to his head. Of course, they only wanted the phone and any other electrnic devices. Luckily, he only had the phone. Sieghard and all, can't you wipe the phone clean through Find My Phone app?

Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.
Someone on applevis under the accessibility bugs topic who has the speaker phone bug suggested switching the option to the headset under accessibility, however I tried this and when I hold the phone to my ear I hear nothing at all coming out of the earpeace so I don't think this works unless this person is using a headset. - Original Message - From: Regina Alvarado To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, October 07, 2013 3:33 PM Subject: Re: Apple now forcing iOS 6 holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7. Have you tried turning phone 4s off and back on or even resetting with home button and wake/sleep? I find no sluggishness in my 4s, only the sensitivity, and turning off the IOs sounds seems to have helped that. Try emptying the app switcher too. No, Apple definitely should not be putting it on the phone, but the IOS itself is definitely not that bad.

Well this issue changes by the day. Even on 1% battery, without charger, my iPhone 4S is trying to download iOS7.02. So contrary to what David C. has stated, it looks as if the charger is now irrelevant. Which is odd, because I was able to stop the download a few days ago by disconnecting the charger, so something has changed. My tests also suggest that the unit downloads the update whether locked or not. So it seems the only way to stop this download now is to turn WiFi off.

But let me tell you in my opinion what is ridiculous . ridiculous is when we pay to a company that created a good software, a good hardware, hardware and software that made a difference in your life. But later they changed the software, and you start to get problems with many things in your device, but you fill ok, because every IOs bring bugs. It is ridiculous , because you didn't pay with money cracked, you didn't paid it with a check without funds, you paid it with money, good money. What right are you talking about.

what reset to use and when?
I know there's different methods when resetting the IPhone, I was just curious on under what conditions each of them applied?

Re: Automatic iOS 7 download and space considerations
I only use my 4s for apps and have 11.1 gb on it. being that I have a 16 gb this is why I don't download music and delete books that I read when I do read after reading them. - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, October 04, 2013 3:28 PM Subject: Automatic iOS 7 download and space considerations Hello, Jonathan as always explains things like nobody else and I do agree that the automatic downloading of iOS 7 is maybe not something Apple should force on people even though it is also not new since they did the same with iOS 5 and iOS 6. Here is a point, though, which I wonder about: People mostly complain that on something like a 16 Gb phone this update takes up a lot of space and I would agree that it does. If you only have maybe 3 or 4 Gb free space and this is almost 3 Gb it doesn't leave you with much. If you use a 16 Gb phone but you don't really fill your device with music and only use storage space for some apps, maybe a few books or pictures, then you probably have at least 6 or 8 Gb free space in which case it's a mute point if half of that space is used up by the update since chances are you won't run out of space. If your phone is so full that maybe you only have 1 Gb free I wonder what happens then. I somehow doubt Apple randomly can delete stuff from your phone to make room for the update, it is my guess that if you went to Software Update in General Settings it would have an Download and Install option since it could not download the update and if you tried it you would be informed that there wasn't enough space. At that point you would have to take off (un-sync) some music, pictures, books or apps depending on what you have on your phone to fill it up should you want to install the update, afterwards you could resync that content. So, maybe this is something to remember next year as a work-around. If you have a 16 Gb device and don't want a new iOS update to download, simply make sure you fill your device with content and only leave maybe less than 2 Gb free for use, this way there is not enough space for the update to download and you are good to go. If you have 5, 6 or 8 Gb of free space or even more then having the just under 3 Gb download sitting on your device is a mute point. Should people have to do this? No, probably not, I think Apple should put something into the Settings which just as you can turn off automatic app updates allows you to turn off automatic iOS update downloads. They could even have this set to On by default since then it's up to each person who cares enough to not want this to turn it off. Regards, Sieghard a quarter or and have a smaller First, it is my understanding that this only downloads via is a point, though, regarding space. People complain that if they have .

Re: Problem with Siri and raised to speak with new version of software
I have the same issue from time to time. I'm not sure why this is happening. - Original Message - From: Kerri Stovall spedange...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2013 3:15 PM Subject: Problem with Siri and raised to speak with new version of software Good afternoon everyone, My apologies if this post has already been sent before, but I just have a quick question. I just updated my iPhone to version seven, and I noticed a problem with Siri when I use it with the race to speak function. Sometimes it doesn't seem to want to listen as it should, but at other times it will go ahead and listen, but after it dings, there is no response. When I lower the phone away from my face and touch the screen, I noticed that it has brought up whatever I have asked for Siri to bring up, but I thought it was supposed to dialogue with me just as it does when I use the home button. I noticed that it also happens with my husband's iPhone for S, which is also updated. I thought I was supposed to be able to dialogue with Siri without lowering the phone just as I do when using the home button. Could anyone shed some light on this? Thank you very much and I look forward to your responses. Kerri Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Dictating without the dictation button -- how to do it?
I have too noticed this, like for example if I am leaving a voicemail, sometimes the 2 finger doubletap would take so long to respond that sometimes the voicemail wouldn't go through because it would take me to the options screen and sometimes people wouldn't get my voicemails, now it hangs up right away and answers right away too, I like that. - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, September 22, 2013 11:09 AM Subject: RE: Dictating without the dictation button -- how to do it? Hi Kimber, The Dictate button is still there on my 4S where is always has been, just to the left of the spacebar when the virtual keyboard is visible. If you touch an edit field and hear Voiceover saying, for example, Search field, is editing, character mode, do a 2-finger double tap at this point and you should hear the tone to indicate that Dictation is listening. When you are done speaking do a 2-finger double tap again to stop dictation and insert the text. I find the increased screen sensitivity has it's bad moments, but one thing I find is that using the 2-finger double tap to start and stop dictation when I'm in an edit field or also to answer and hang up calls is a lot more reliable for me and somehow seems to be faster and more snappy.

Re: Battery Consumption in IOS
I have not noticed any battery issues in ios7, just your normal stuff will drain it, like playing music, talking on the phone, brightness, etc. - Original Message - From: Les Kriegler kriegle...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, September 22, 2013 10:25 AM Subject: Battery Consumption in IOS I don't know if this is specific to IOS7, hence my subject line did not reference IOS7 specifically. I am running IOS 7 on the 5S. I thought my battery was draining much faster than it should. I made all the settings adjustments recommended including the brightness setting at 0. I checked this morning and the brightness setting showed at 29%. I didn't adjust this setting. But I think the culprit here is the Auto Brightness setting which is on by default. A program must have been running which altered the brightness level based on Auto Brightness being on. I toggled that setting to Off, and thus far, brightness remains at 0%. My phone has been locked for about 2 hours, and the battery level has not dropped, so perhaps I'll get better battery life now. Hope this is helpful info.

I really don't feel like having my phone totally reset where I have to go and get my apps and contacts and all again. And then going to have to re down load version again. And then reset ut everything again. So can you disable this a different way or is that the only way? Before I upgraded I backed my phone up to the cloud so I do have A back up the way my phone was before I installed the new upgrade. So if you can't disable this then I guess I will just have to live with it. It kind of makes it handy if you phone every gets stolen.

If you don't want to risk the new bugs introduced with a new iOS, then wait like you did with iOS 6 until a newer iOS 7, maybe iOS 7.01 or something is out. Just a friendly suggestion. -- Raul A.

Unfortunately Apple has blocked that ability now. You were able to revert when iOS seven beta was out. But with the public release of iOS 7 you can't. Apple operating system is still the most accessible application on the market. But there are definite bugs in it compared to iOS 6. Why Apple doesn't put voice over features through a more rigorous testing process I don't know. But here are a compilation of the problems I have experienced thus far. Many have discussed the jerkiness of voiceover. IT will have experienced this. I have an iPhone five and iOS seven. To be more specific it occurs when typing in Twitter or typing messages. I will be typing a message and flick up or down one time to go past a word. Sometimes voice over will then we verse my motion. Instead of being at the end of the word as I intended suddenly I am at the beginning of the word. I'm a fairly educated individual having a doctorate degree. So it is not due to me accidentally touching the screen or anything on my part. It is a flaw in the software at least on my phone. Another example of a voice over error occurs in the Twitter application Twitterrific. Sometimes it will read a tweet again and again and again until I swipe left or right to move up or down the list of tweets. This I could be a problem with the Twitter application itself. However I have the most up-to-date version Most annoying problem I experience is regarding voice over when I am playing music or audio and the phone is locked. It occurs when I play audiobooks or music. Voice over will suddenly say screen locked. It will occur randomly and continuously. It usually occurs every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Is a software glitch for sure. Sometimes I am able to prevent it from having this error if after locking the phone I disabled then reenable voice over. Other then a new look which doesn't appeal to me considering I'm blind and iTunes radio which I myself don't use there aren't many new features that I personally use. But as I said it is the most stable application on the market. I'm surprised that Google doesn't make their software accessible It is quite a shame considering they are designing driverless cars. I am considering purchasing an iPhone 5 S and if I do I will update the list as to whether I experience any of these same difficulties. https://Twitter.com/JimLockwoodShow Http://www.jimlockwoodshow.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: A Pandora question.
I upgraded to the paid version hoping that it would let me skip an unlimited amount of songs, it seems though that the paid version only does away with the advertisements, I was disappointed. - Original Message - From: Christopher Chaltain chalt...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, September 20, 2013 5:23 PM Subject: Re: A Pandora question. I've only ever used the free version of Pandora, so I don't know how it compares to the paid version, but you are only allowed to skip so many songs in the free version of Pandora every hour. I know you also get a lower bit rate in the free version over the paid version. I don't think it effects how many stations you can have. I have around eight in the free version as well.

So, let's start from sirie: The new and better Sirie voices are not Vocalizer Expressive voices. These are custom voices that Nuance or some other company makes a specially for Apple, I think it's Nuance because Apple always works with them on TTS related stuff. Now, let's move on to VoiceOver: In iOS 6, Apple used the Nuance Vocalizer for automotive version 5.5 platform for it's screen reader and Sirie. Since Nuance stopped supporting and developing Vocalizer for Automotive, and released Vocalizer Expressive, in iOS 7, Apple has swiched to using these voices for VoiceOver. Most of them sound the same as the previous generation of Vocalizer, such as Samantha Premium for example, they just read longer texts better. The Vocalizer Expressive platform contains some new and very expressive voices, but Apple decided to use the ones that wer already available, because they are still offerd with Vocalizer Expressive, or VE for short. Some other facts that thanks to them you can know it's the new Expressive version, are the bad compact voices, a specially Daniel, and the new voices for some languages such as Arabic, they have replaced Maged with Tarik for this language because Nuance doesn't offer Maged any more. Vocalizer Expressive has a Hebrew voice as well, so I hope Apple will add it soon too:) (Smile). Hope now you understand it better..

That being said, I think it is very possible. I think more than sensitivity, this might be some random VO focus issues. The first thing I would try is restarting my device, and turning on reduced motion in settings/general/accessibility.

What Apple has done is made VO more responsive more rapidly to the touch. When you are typing, holding a letter for than a second first causes VO to say selected because passthrough has been activated. Now, you can slide your finger around the keyboard to get various types of alternate symbols for the symbol in question. If you do not slide your finger at all, but instead, lift your finger straight up from the keyboard, the original symbol you were touching will be used. Getting different symbols means you are moving your finger before lifting it from the keyboard. Apple appears to have shortened the time between when the screen is initially touched and when mode shifts to tracking your finger rather than interpreting your command gesture. The time used to be half a second. I am guessing the time is now about a fourth of a second, but I do not have an assistant to help me time it. This shorter time is causing your editing to get confused because you are used to having more time to start your command gesture movement after touching the screen. If you start movements before touching the screen, you will bypass most of the difficulties you are experiencing.

However, so far as us VI's are concerned, it seems that there are some definite difficulties and pitfalls and I'm feeling a bit frustrated with these. First, for me at least the 4S is in some ways quite snappy and, in others, just not quite snappy enough ... Then, I'm a bit disappointed as the UK English voice just doesn't sound quite right, even on its higher setting and awful on its compact setting. Since we listen to speech most of the time, these voices really need to be very good! However, my main frustration right now is being unable to perform general editing techniques nearly as well or as quickly as in IOS6. This is because of the more sensitive touch, which can create random incorrect letters. This would even be OK if, when editing and working through word by wor and letter by letter, the voices were really tiptop and selecting was better than it is at present. I find I can no longer select and delete quantities of text as before because so often the cursor jumps about (often putting me at the top of a message when I was editing further down) (or the pinch method just doesn't work at all. Finally, I am finding the dictation when using Siri, less accurate than before and I was looking forward to seeing some leaps forward in this area. M-Braille is definitely my best bet here right now for writing but I still have a need to utilise these other skills when I need to get things done quickly and corretly. The matter which brought this in focus for me was when I was trying to text a quick message into which I needed to place some numeric and punctuation signs. I found that, when in touch typing mode, it was just too easy to slide a finger and find that a character was selected and then extra characters were available to me, but they just got inserted every time I slid my finger around - so a real mess! I did try to edit using standard typing and this was a little better, but I don't want to use this as I find it generally much quicker to use the touch typing method. I'd love some of you to try out texting, including the characters that are available in the Numbersoption, and see what you think! For now, I'm taking a break and a cuppa!

Re: Inaccurate Reporting of Apps Store Upgrades During Release Crush was RE: app store issue
I am still having this issue, Whenever I go to the app store it will say I have 19 items, so I will go to updates, and nothing is there not even anything telling me that all my apps are up to date, then I tried searching for something and downloading it thinking maybe the app store wasn't working, and it did say could not connect to app store, so I rebooted my phone and it will let me download apps now but not update existing ones still, maybe I will try it on a non busy part of the day to see what that will do. - Original Message - From: Myrna Votta myrnavo...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2013 4:00 PM Subject: RE: Inaccurate Reporting of Apps Store Upgrades During Release Crush was RE: app store issue As I had written last evening, just about the same thing happened to me. I thought that that it was due to having clicked on not now, when I was given the choice to automatically update all apps. Well, this morning, when I powered on my iPad and went to the app store, I was presented with about 15 or so apps that could be updated. I did update all of them. I then began to think that, as you said, it must have been a server issue yesterday that was causing all of this strange behavior. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2013 1:53 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Inaccurate Reporting of Apps Store Upgrades During Release Crush was RE: app store issue During most of yesterday, my Apps Store badge with the number of upgrades went from 44 to nothing even though I had not upgraded anything. When I opened the Apps Store, I was told all apps were updated. This strange behavior apparently had something to do with the server crush related to the release of iOS 7. Today my Apps Store badge once again says 44 updates available. I've found patience and a wait and see attitude work much better for me as far as new computer and phone operating systems are concerned.

The badge said 7 updates but, when I opened the app store and went to the updates tab, it showed no updates. I checked and my automatic updates is turned off so it should not have automatically done the updates. Strange.

I cspecifically held off on the updates for the Kindle app as well as the YouPlayer app since I wanted to check and confirm whether any accessibility-related bugs had come up as a result of the updates. The badge for my App Store said 2 new items, and when I opened the App Store, the Updates tab first said 5 updates, then switched to no updates at all. Now the screen says all apps are up to date.

I know for a fact I have updates because I did not update Iheart radio do to the accessibility issue.
