Plea for more descriptive subjects

[Jeffrey Turner]

I know this is really the job of the moderators, but I already asked Mark to 
remind people about this, and he hasn’t.

It is so much more helpful to use more descriptive subjects on your posts than 
something like “Question” or “My phone won’t” because those shorter subjects 
don’t really give any idea of what your post is about. Remember that your post 
goes into the permanent archive which is an important resource for this group, 
and your message may not be found by people searching that archive unless the 
subject is clear.

My apologies if I’ve overstepped, but my patience ran out.

Hi Alan,
 
After doing some readingabout this app I have 1 question.  Does this keyboard 
have a shift key for capitalizing letters?  I didn't catch anything about this. 
 Thanks much.
Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Subject: Fleksy VO Coming Back as FlickType
 
Hello,
 
I'm posting this to both viphone and iDevices.
 
Those of you who ever experienced the original Fleksy app later renamed Fleksy 
VO will be excited to learn that the app is coming back renamed FlickType. 
Those who don't know what I'm talking about should sign up as beta testers of 
FlickType and give it a go and submit your feedback. You can visit its website 
atwww.flicktype.com  where there is a link to submit 
an email to sign up as a beta tester.
 
The original Fleksy which was released about 2012 came out when Apple did not 
allow third party keyboards. It was a separate app that presented a keyboard at 
about a third of the bottom of your iPhone screen in portrait mode. The keys 
were oversized in a high contrast presentation for those with any vision and 
there was no spacebar. Any content produced with Fleksy had to be copied and 
pasted into whatever app you wanted to send the text in such as your Mail or 
Messages app. FlickType continues in the same vein since it uses the original 
Fleksy source code which went into the public domain after Pinterest acquired 
the Fleksy Keyboard and the original Fleksy VO was no longer supported.
 
What is great about FlickType is its predictive engine. You simply start typing 
where you think the keys you want are located and do a single finger swipe 
right when you're done. FlickType will announce the word it thinks you wanted 
and more times than not will get it right. If it's not right, simply do a 
single finger swipe down to cycle through its other choices. These choices are 
all presented audibly and when you hear the correct one, you just start typing 
the next word. You don't need to insert any spaces since FlickType does that 
automatically. When you type the last word in the sentence and FlickType has 
announced it, simply single finger swipe once again and FlickType will place a 
period at the sentence end. You simply start typing the next word and FlickType 
will automatically capitalize it. Only letter keys are presented on the main 
FlickType keyboard which makes it very easy to rapidly type your text with only 
a single finger. To access other keys such as numbers or symbols, you do a 2 
finger swipe right or left to cycle through these. To capitalize a letter such 
as a proper name, single finger swipe down after you've entered the letter and 
it will be capitalized. Any words or names you enter manually can be added to 
your custom dictionary by doing a single finger swipe up after FlickType 
announces the word. Developing a complete dictionary is highly recommended 
since that is what feeds FlickType's predictive engine. When your typing is 
done, do a 2 finger swipe up to access the FlickType menu where your text is 
reviewed for you and you can access the menu choices to copy it for pasting in 
the app where you want it to go. It is very easy to learn and I strongly 
recommend those unfamiliar with it to try it since sometimes there is just no 
substitute for typing even though dictation is very handy.
 
The FlickType developer who is the original Fleksy developer as I understand it 
has said they hope to have a FlickType iOS keyboard at some point. Personally, 
I'm not too fussed about whether they ever do this since my experience with 
Fleksy was that it became much less usable and efficient in my opinion once it 
became an iOS keyboard. I find that even with the FlickType separate app and 
having to copy and paste its output as was the case with Fleksy VO that I can 
still output text much more quickly than with either the standard iOS keyboard 
or with the Fleksy keyboard.
 
Here is a link to the AppleVis site announcing Fleksy becoming the latest 
inductee into the AppleVis App Hall of Fame for those wanting to review a 
little history:

You sure can know if you are in the video.

After you take your picture, turn on Narrator.

After Narrator, focus on the picture file, and press shift+caps lock+D. 
Narrator will use an on line service to describe the picture enough to know 
that you are in the picture.

It told me something like:

One person, a man, close up with dark hair.

Only Narrator, built in Windows 10 does this.

If you do a three-finger swipe down from the home screen, you can then type in

Finding a misplaced app on the iPhone

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello list,

After upgrading to 11.1, the clock app, which I had as the last app on my home 
screen, has hidden itself somewhere, and after searching high and low, I still 
can’t find it.

I am able to bring it up using handwriting, but I want it back where it belongs.

I believe there is a gesture that can be used in the app switcher, or perhaps 
in the handwriting results list that will tell me what screen and/or folder the 
app is hiding in. Can someone please tell me what that gesture is?

Thank you all, and thank you for all the information you’ve provided about IOS 
11. I’m very grateful to have avoided the pesky issues with the email app by 
reading this list.

RE: The new NLS website is currently scheduled to go live this coming Sunday, July 9th.

What up with this? I don’t see any changes on the Arizona version of the site.

 

 

From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of 
Richard Turner
Sent: Saturday, July 8, 2017 4:14 PM
To: ViPone list 
Subject: The new NLS website is currently scheduled to go live this coming 
Sunday, July 9th.

 

 

I received this on another list and thought many here would appreciate the 
information.

 

SUBJECT : New website launch

 

The new NLS website is currently scheduled to go live at the longstanding NLS 
URL of www.loc.gov/nls  


this coming Sunday, July 9th.There will be no 
change to the URL for the homepage.  Your bookmarks to the longstanding NLS URL 
for the homepage will still function correctly and take you to the new site.  
The longstanding URL for BARD login will also remain exactly the same.  No 
changes have been made to BARD or the NLS catalog.  The site has also undergone 
repeated accessibility and screen reader testing here at NLS and out in the 
field.

 

Please be aware of the following issues and activities during the switchover 
period of three days, from Sunday the 9th through Tuesday the 11th. 
 

 

1.  The old website-the one we're all familiar with-will continue to exist 
through October (at least) and our patrons can continue to use it while they 
gradually become familiar with the new site.

Its URL, however, will change: the old site will no longer be at 
www.loc.gov/nls  
, but rather at www.loc.gov/nlsold 
 
.  There will be a prominent link on the homepage of 
the new website-on the left-hand side, under the box of "Quick Links"-so that 
patrons can jump back to the homepage of the old website if they wish to.

If they are on the old site, there will be an equally prominent link so they 
can jump to the new site.

 

2.  On the new website, the "Search" field at the right top edge will be 
optimized only once the switch of URLs is made on Sunday and Monday.  For that 
reason, it may be a couple days before it is fully functioning.  Patrons can 
use built-in navigation on the new site to find what they are looking for 
during this brief period.  We appreciate your patience during the time required 
for the "Search" to become fully optimized for searching the new site.

 

3.  During the same three-day period, for the most visited areas of our 
website, we will be embedding new internal URLs and redirected URLs so that 
patrons can easily find what they are looking for.  Again, we appreciate your 
patience as this process is completed.

 

4.  We will be grateful for your feedback about any issues you encounter, or 
suggestions you can make.  Please send them to d...@loc.gov 
  and 
ms...@loc.gov  
.  We will log and prioritize those changes we cannot 
make immediately so that we can iterate on them continuously in the weeks to 
come.

RE: I just tapped the record button and then once more to stop recording. Then the player and settings buttons were undimmed. Re: Easy to use recording app free today

[Jeffrey Turner]

I was able to use the double-tap and hold technique to get the settings and 
play buttons to undim, but going to the playback screen, was unable to find any 
button that played my recording.

RE: Is IOS 10.3 available for iPhone 5?

[Jeffrey Turner]

Having started this thread, I thought I should provide some closure about what 
I've recommended to my clients. The explanation that the over-the-air updates 
were pulled, but that iTunes updates were still available seemed to be a 
bandaid solution to me, so I recommended that they consider upgrading their 
phones from 5's to 7's. These are elderly people, but not hurting financially, 
by any stretch of the imagination.

Their primary concerns seemed to be about needing to use the connecter into the 
power jack for a patch cord while driving, but I think they'll be willing to do 
this, once they get used to the idea. The husband has normal vision, and 
connects his phone via blue tooth, and they don't want to mess with having a 
second phone trying to talk over Blue tooth.

Sometimes it's really hard to give up technology that you love a lot, but I 
think they'll be willing to move ahead.

Thanks to all on the list who provided answers to my inquiry.

As multiple articles describe, Apple has apparently pulled the over the air 
update to iOS 10.3 for the iPhone 5 and 5C for now. Whether this is permanent I 
have not read anywhere and according to one article I read you can go ahead and 
still update an iPhonen 5/5C to 10.3 with iTunes.
Mike, just out of curiocity, if you have a 5S and also a 5C, why would you use 
the 5C instead of the much nicer 5S?

Did you see the following from ILounge?
iLounge Mobile Edition
Apple pulls over-the-air iOS 10.3 update for iPhone 5, 5c; iOS 10.3.2 seems to 
end support for them Apple has pulled back the over-the-air update to iOS 10.3 
for iPhone 5 and 5c devices without giving any reason, AppleInsider reports. 
The update was available for a few hours before mysteriously disappearing, 
despite there being no noted outcry of users who had tried and failed to 
install the update on the devices. The update can still be installed through 
the standard process using iTunes, and seems to function fine on an iPhone 5c.

In a related development, The Apple Post has discovered that the beta version 
of iOS 10.3.2 appears to end support for devices with 32-bit processors — like 
the iPhone 5 and 5c. The beta only contains restore images for 64-bit devices, 
hinting at the possibility that 32-bit devices are about to lose support. Apple 
announced back in 2014 that new apps or app updates would have to support 
64-bit processors, and recent speculation has swirled around iOS 11 ending 
support for 32-bit devices. A warning dialog discovered by developers working 
with the iOS 10.3 beta stated that apps that have not been updated to include 
64-bit support “will not work with future versions of iOS.” Given the new 
findings in the iOS 10.3.2 beta, the change could come sooner than expected. If 
so, the 4th generation iPad would also be unsupported as it features a 32-bit 
processor.

RE: Is IOS 10.3 available for iPhone 5?

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hi Sieghard,

 

I thought I had read that the 5 was supported, so was puzzled when it did not 
show up under software updates on my clients’ phones. We were going through the 
recommended process of backing up their phones, emptying the ap switcher,, 
turning off their phones for 30 seconds, and then updating, but both their 
phones insisted their software was up to date, even though they only have 
version 10.2.1. Oh, and yes, they were both plugged into live power and 
connected to WI/FI at the time.

 

I know sometimes Apple rolls things out geographically, and they  are in 
Georgia while I am in Arizona, but I thought by now the whole U.S. would be 
covered.

 

They may be able to stop att an Apple Store on Sunday, so perhaps they will 
have an anser for us.

 

I’m glad you have written proof from the Apple website that the 5 is supported. 
Maybe they won’t think I’m totally bonkers.

 

Thanks,

Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,

 

I am not sure why your clients don’t see the update, the  iPhone 5 is 
definitely still capable of running iOS 10, only the iPhone 4S and older 
devices are no longer compatible with iOS 10.

Can you let us know if they have  iOS 10 and don’t see the update to 10.3 or do 
you mean they are still on iOS 9 and don’t see an option to update to iOS 10? 
Make sure they indeed have an iPhone 5 because support for the 4S definitely 
stopped with iOS 9. They should probably make a backup, close all apps and then 
reboot the phone and try again, also make sure they are connected to Wifi.

Feliciano,  if you don’t believe me that the iPhone 5 can have iOS 10, here is 
a list of supported devices copied directly from Apple’s website:

 

iOS 10 is compatible with these devices.

 

iPhone

iPhone7/7 Plus

iPhone 6s/6s Plus

iPhone 6/6 Plus

iPhone SE

iPhone 5s

iPhone 5c

RE: iCloud on Windows and iPhone Interfacing

[Jeffrey Turner]

Thanks Mark, yes, I am keeping only the one contacts file on my computer, and 
it's in the iCloud section of my Outlook folders. Although I have an iCloud tab 
in the 2016 Outlook ribbon, the only button that isn't dimmed is the refresh 
button, and pressing it just dumps me back down into whatever note I'm writing 
at the time. Seems like there ought to be a trigger somewhere to make the sync 
happen.

Will take your suggestions to Google on the issue.

Hello Jeffry,

As I do not know what version of Outlook you are using, let me state that in 
addition to configuring your iCloud Control Panel as Sieghard has indicated, 
you must also make certain that you are accessing the iCloud Contacts in your 
Outlook application.

In short, one can have as many Contacts folders in Outlook as one likes but 
only the one created/linked to one's iCloud account is synchronized.  

Sometimes, it would be so much easier to explain these kinds of things via a 
conference call instead of attempting to do so via email.  

Just do a quick Google search on using iCloud contacts in Outlook version x, 
where x is the number of the version of Outlook you are using, and you should 
find detailed explanations that should help.

Hi Jeffrey,

If I open iCloud Control Panel I have the following option:
Contacts, Calendars, and TasksWith Outlook check box not checked

In my case I don’t have it checked because both my laptop and my iPhone are set 
up to connect and sync with my @Outlook.com email address so any changes I make 
on one device are synced to all other devices where that account is set up.

iCloud on Windows and iPhone Interfacing

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello,

 

I noticed that the contacts on my iPhone do not reflect the changes I've
been making in Outlook contacts. But, hwen I open the iCloud program on my
Windows 10 desktop, I find nothing to initiate any kind of syncing. I do
have bookmarks and contacts checked, so that looks right.

 

Suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Jeffrey

VoiceOver in left ear only, sometimes

[Jeffrey Turner]

Has anyone else experienced this? Sometimes when I plug in the connecter for
my headphones, VoiceOver only speaks in the left ear, or perhaps more
accurately, the balance shifts way over to the left-hand side, maybe about
10:30 on a clock dial.

 

This happened on my iPhone 6+, beginning in around IOS 10.1 or so, as well
as I can remember. I thought it was specific to my device, but since then,
I've gotten an iPhone 7, and it does the same thing.

 

Thankfully, it's easily remedied. Dumping VoiceOver and restarting it always
puts things right, but I haven't seen anything about this on the list, and
it's hard for me to believe I'm the only one having this happen.

 

Thanks,

Jeffrey Turner

BARD Mobile might work again...but you might want to wait

[Jeffrey Turner]

I was just able to log on to the BARD site, but it was sluggish as all get
out. No way to know if it's extreme traffic from all the pent up users
hitting the site all at the same time, or residue from the systems problems
that caused the outage.

 

I'd recommend waiting a while before trying BARD mobile.

The Bard website is experiencing system problems, so the Bard Express program

Yesterday and today I have gone in to try to find another book. When I click on

I get nothing more than an In Progress indication that eventually times out.

 

I’m properly signed in, at least as indicated by the account information listed

Is there something up with the site, or am I doing something wrong?

Subject: RE: Airpod question.

Hello Everyone,

As with many things in life, it's all a matter of opinion.  

I can tell you that of all the 20+ Bluetooth headsets I've owned throughout the 
years, Apple Airpods are my absolute, without a doubt, favorite.  

I am amazed with how seamlessly they interface with iPhone.  I absolutely love 
the fact that I can effortlessly switch from a single-ear to two-ear and back 
to a single-ear configuration, on the fly.  

The auto-ear detection is as close to magic as I've yet experienced on a 
Smartphone.

If I am playing a song or listening to a book/podcast with Airpods, all I need 
do is to remove the Airpod from my ear and playback will pause and not resume 
until I place the Airpod back in my ear.  Amazing!

My favorite feature of Airpods, however, is how beautifully VoiceOver switches 
between Airpods and iPhone.  

With iPhone in my breast pocket, for example, and an alert comes in, that I 
want to explore privately, I simply place an Airpod in my ear and sound 
automatically transfers from the phone to my ear; when I'm done, I simply drop 
the Airpod back into either its case or a pocket, and sound automatically 
reverts back to iPhone.

This may be difficult to believe but last night, I panicked when I could not 
find one of my Airpods only to have a sighted friend inform me that it was in 
my left ear.  I know, I couldn't believe it either.  Talk about being 
embarrassed; but they really are that comfortable. smile)

Mind you, I am using Airpods with iPhone 6 Plus, only, so I can only imagine 
how much better they perform with newer iPhone models.

I think Airpods are well worth their price and that Apple, once again, has 
ushered in a new era of technology with this most innovative accessory.

Mark

Hi Eric,

Good choice, I think the current Airpods are quite a rip-off and in fact I was 
at an Apple Store today to buy a headset for my wife as an anniversary present 
and I was looking forward to checking out the Beats Solo and walked away deeply 
disappointed. I am in Canada so the Beats Solo here is $329.95 + taxes and 
while they sounded OK I could simply not believe such a large and, according to 
Apple, advanced headset has no volume control. First the Airpods have no volume 
control and now the Beats Solo also has no volume control, if this is the 
wireless future Apple invisions they need glasses. I ended up getting her a 
pair of the new BeatsX since she prefers earbud style headsets anyways over big 
clunky ones. As for the Solo I can only say that in addition to the lack of a 
volume control the sound is also just OK, I mean it's good but not special for 
the price. I have listened to many a headset that costs between $150 and $200 
Canadian and think they sounded just as good.
Another thing I noticed is that the canadian price for the BeatsX is a lot more 
favourible than that of the Airpods. If I am not mistaken the BeatsX in the 
States are $149 and the Airpods are $159, a $10 difference. Here in Canada the 
BeatsX are $179 and the Airpods are $219, a $40 difference in our currency. If 
I use the current exchange rate and convert $149 for the BeatsX to canadian it 
works out to about $195 Canadian, but Apple Canada only charges $179 so 
compared to the US price it's actually a good deal. If I convert the $159 US 
for the Airpods to Canadian it is $208 or $209 so at $219 Apple put a 5% 
upcharge on it at least based on the current exchange rate. How a $10 US 
difference works out to be a $40 Canadian difference when $10 US is about $13.2 
or $13.5 I don't know.
All in all I think that currently you can get a much better bang for your buck 
if you look at third-party headsets and the Apple W1 chip to me seems very much 
overrated. In fact, apart from the admitedly simple pairing process and maybe 
the fact that any other Apple device that is connected to the same Apple Id is 
supposed to pair I don't see a big advantage.

 Hello List,

 

I purchased one of these $39.95 adapters directly from the Apple Store so I
could both listen to and charge my iPhone 7 using my wired earpods. The
adapter works well for the most part but I'm having an occasional issue with
it. I leave it attached to my lightning USB cable which is plugged into my
computer and at least twice, iTunes hasn't recognized my attached iPhone 7
when connected to the Belkin adapter. I've had to remove the adapter and

Other than that, the adapter has worked well with my iPhone and all the
earpod buttons work well with the adapter.

facebook on IOS10

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hi,

 

I have an inaccessible screen on my Facebook app now, which I am told says I
need to go into the settings app on my phone, and manage my passwords from
there. Once I get there, everything looks right to me, but there is a delete
this account button to choose.

 

Could it actually be that I have to delete this entry from my phone in order
to use the Facebook app now?i find this to be very counter-intuitive, and I
really don't want to delete my Facebook account. It's not clear to me if
this deletes the Facebook account from their servers, or just a newly
unnecessary feature from my iPhone settings.

 

Anybody know?

 

Thanks,

Jeffrey Turner

Re: Rest finger on home button to open.

[jeffrey Turner]

I do not have the raise to wake feature enabled, but have the rest finger on 
the home button working properly. I do not need to press the home button, just 
rest of my finger on the home button, and the phone opens up to my homepage.

Hi, I do have finger print access  turn on. It will open my iPhone if I push

Hello Jeffrey,

 

In an existing contact, if you are adding a number, just double tap on add 
phone, and it will put you in an edit field to enter the new number.

Now if you swipe left from the edit field, you will be on the label of the 
number.  Just double tap on the label to bring up a pop up window that will 
allow you to change that label to whatever you want.  iPhone is one of the 
choices.  Just double tap it to select it.

 

Hope this helps,

RE: itunes 12.3.4 or whatever it is isa mess

I totally support the idea of a blitz of Apple to bring their attention to the

involved in their accessibility efforts.

Perhaps if enough people write, they will realize it is actually their

Hi Larry and others,

 

There was an iTunes update yesterday, the current version is iTunes Version 
12.4.3.1. Unfortunately little seems to be fixed and certainly newer versions 
of iTunes 12 have taken steps backward with respect to accessibility. If you 
use the column browser with Genres, Artists and Albums, these list views are 
not read (at least not by the latest version of Jaws 17). 2 or 3 versions ago 
it would read them and, for some reason, say “L1” in front of whatever else it 
said, now it will just say List View.

I am going to write to Apple accessibility since while I use iTunes less 
frequently in connection with my iPhone, I still may want to use it at home on 
my PC and of course there are some tasks like syncing Ringtones etc. one can 
only do with iTunes. As Brian Tong from the AppleByte Podcast always says when 
Apple has dropped the ball on something, I would call this a “bad Apple”. 
Hopefully others will join me in writing about better iTunes accessibility. 
There are I think around 2,000 members on this list now and even if only 1 out 
of 4 took the time to send a message, maybe if Apple Accessibility received 500 
messages they’ll understand that this should be addressed. It would certainly 
be more effective than only 5 messages. And while people are at it, why not 
make the subject “Accessibility of iTunes and iCloud.com <http://icloud.com>  
which Apple seems to think are not important to blind users”. I still don’t 
understand how Apple has done nothing to make the iCloud.com 
<http://icloud.com>  website accessible after so many years.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

The sign up process requires me to write a personal reply saying why I am

Would you please either forward this message to the list on my behalf, or reach

I appreciate your help, or any suggestion.

Michael,
 
Fleksy has two different keyboards, the default one which includes a spacebar 
and has a layout similar to the standard iOS keyboard and  minimal one without 
the spacebar which resembles that of the original Fleksy app later renamed 
Fleksy VO. If you're using the default spacebar Fleksy keyboard, there is a 
button immediately to the left of the spacebar that should allow you to switch 
to the standard keyboard. What is presented with this button depends on your 
Fleksy keyboard settings so you might have to rest your finger on that button 
and slide to hear the options it presents. If you're using the minimal Fleksy 
keyboard, you'll need to do a two-finger swipe up in the keyboard area to 
switch to the Fleksy spacebar keyboard where you can access that button to the 
left of the spacebar.

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello List,

I have recently spotted a return to mail, and sometimes a return to messages
button in the status bar when I have opened a link in either of those aps.
It's tucked way up in the upper left-hand corner of the screen, and returns
you right back to where you came from, without having to exit Safari, go
back to your home page, and then reopen the ap you were in. Maybe this is
something everybody already knows about, but I don't remember seeing it on
the list, and stumbled on it by accident myself, so wanted to share in case
others hadn't seen it.

RE: BARD Mobile Finally Recieves an Update

[Jeffrey Turner]

When I click on the sleep timer to activate it, the book starts playing, which 
seems like a bug to me, but may be a misguided feature. To increment the sleep 
timer, you must double-tap repeatedly on the button, but it’s hard to hear what 
the new setting is because the book is blabbing away.

 

Others can presumably reproduce this behavior?

Thanks Anna, 

 

I have tried this in the past with the previous version of BARD and it never 
worked. I also have tried clearing the app switcher and rebooting my phone and 
then opening only the BARD app and it will still get confused and start playing 
music. :(  This is all before the latest BARD update so I will try these work 
arounds with this newer version and hope for the best. :)

HI Christina,

 

Try removing other audio apps from the app switcher before you start using BARD 
Mobile. This may help.

 

Best,

grr, that’s a major bummer for me. I can’t even use the BARD app because I 
typically need to use headphones and I am always interrupted by a phone call or 
the kids. It was just too incredibly frustrating to not be able to quickly 
pause and resume playback. It almost always started playing music. So, I just 
gave up. I was hoping that since they fixed the two-finger-double-tap that the 
pausing with a microphone or headset would also be fixed. The only time I can 
use the BARD app is if I know I will absolutely not be interrupted or I am 
actively zooming through a magazine and my fingers are constantly on the phone 
speeding through tidbits I want to read. However, forget listening to a book 
while folding clothes and such. :( I do use the BARD app to browse the latest 
books. I do love using the app for that. Now, with the ability to more easily 
add and remove books from the wish list, the BARD app is even better for me for 
checking out the latest books available.

One thing that was not fixed and is fairly minor unless you use the Apple
earpods for most of your listening as I do, concerns the app not retaining
focus when interrupted. By this I mean if you're listening to a book and
then get a phone call which you answer with your earpods remote button,
after the call ends, pressing the remote button to begin playback again will
cause whatever had focus before BARD Mobile to start playing, In my case,
it's usually the music app.

Hello, I too am having dictation problems of my own. I have a two-month-old 
iPhone 6 got my running 8.3. I contacted Apple care plus the other day because 
my dictation was not completing everything I dictated.

In other words, I would dictate a paragraph or two, it will drop off the last 
three or four sentences. Very very frustrating :-( so, Apple wanted me to find 
out how many gigahertz my cordless phone was running on. They thought that the 
two machines might be interfering with each other

So, do you think the advice to the previous poster might work for my situation 
as well?

First go to  settings. 

Next go to general. 

Next go to keyboard. 

Next swipe to enable dictation and then double tap. This will disable dictation.

Then reenable dictation try that and see if that works.

Mixed review of update to Downcast?

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hi,

I believe downcast was updated during the past few days. I was very glad to
find that the percent played indicator works again, but rather dismayed that
4 of the 8 segments of the PBS News Hour from last night did not play to
completion, even when restarted a second time. Is anyone else seeing this
behavior with the updated Downcast on other podcasts? It's hard to know if
the glitch is with Downcast or the PBS News Hour.

Thanks,
Jeffrey

Siri breaks after AirPlay

 These are some bugs I can think of right now, others have been mentioned

iOS 8.1.1 has been released

[Jeffrey Turner]

Dratted annoying behavior of Gmail web interface! Am resending for those who 
very reasonably dislike reading all the way through old messages to find new 
content. What's wrong with google, anyway?

Hi Christopher,

I have found that the best way to insure focus is on the delete button in mail 
is to touch it twice, and then do a single finger double tap.
This is much more annoying than it used to be, but not nearly as annoying as 
having to dismiss the reply dialog when what you wanted was to delete the 
message.

 The keypad tones still disappear a while after my last reboot of the 
 phone, once again, not a big deal, but a minor bug.

 These are some bugs I can think of right now, others have been 
 mentioned and Apple still has a way to go.

 Subject says it, just use the usual precautions:

 1. Sync and backup your phone either to iCloud or iTunes

 2. Make sure all apps are updated

 3. Remove all apps from the app switcher and at least reboot your 
 phone by turning it off and on again or do a Reset all Network 
 settings which will also reboot your phone.

 Happy updating,

Difficulty saving new event using Fantastical2

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello,

I bought Fantastical2 based on a lot of favorable remarks here, and am
mystified as to how to save a new event once I create it. I can't find any
save or done button, and scrubbing only gives me the choices to either
cancel and discard, or continue editing.

Can someone solve this mystery for me?

Thanks,
Jeffrey Turner

Hi there. Look on the upper right corner and there was a button labeled add. 
When you double tap it, the event will be saved. You want to make sure that the 
event is written in such a way that fantastical will know what you're talking 
about. For example if I want to have lunch with Betty this Friday at noon, I 
would say something like, lunch with Betty this Friday at noon. Imagine how 
easy that is.

RE: This Accessory May Not Be Supported

Hi,

 

I got this error message for a while while charging my iPhone 5, but if I
flipped the charger connector over and plugged it in the other way, it
charged just fine. I surmise that some dust got in there and queered the
connection. Since then, it cleared itself up and I haven't gotten the

I'm used to getting the above subject error message when charging my iPhone
5 using the third-party lightning cable I bought from Amazon on the cheap.
However, I'm now starting to get it from time to time when charging using
the Apple cable that came with my iPhone.

 

I'm curious with what others have experienced with their Apple cables and
how long they've lasted. I take extremely good care of my stuff almost to
the point of being OCD so I'm concerned that this message is starting to
occur too frequently.

 

Is anyone else getting this message and under what circumstances? How well
are your Apple cables holding up?

 

Thanks for any comments.

Seeking collaborators on efficient VIPhone list reading

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello List Members,

This list is an extremely valuable asset, and I thank the owners,
moderators, contributors and readers that make it work. It has been my
primary tool for learning how to use my iPhone, which I wouldn't dream of
living without at this point in my life.

However, no matter how well moderated the list is, there are inevitably
messages filling the list I don't care about. In fact, I'd say on a normal
day, no more than 10 messages peak my interest.

This message, for example, is not likely to interest many people, but, if
you are in my boat, and are interested in culling the valuable content from
this list and weeding out the complaints, opinions, one-liners, repetitive
beginner questions, and cutting your reading to a quarter of what it now is,
please write me offline.

My idea is to share the burden among 4 like-minded, committed list readers.
Rather than reading through each message every day, we would all take one
week, cull the valuable content, and only forward the good stuff to the
other three participants. We could discuss ahead of time what constitutes
valuable content. This being an opinion, not everyone will agree on what is
valuable, but I'm sure we can work it out.

I hope three people out there will join me and give this a try, and I
really, really hope this doesn't generate unnecessary list traffic.

Warmly,
Jeffrey Turner

FW: The Joey voice skips in voiceDream

[Jeffrey Turner]

I sent the note below to Winston, Can anyone else verify that this is
happening? 

When the new voices were made available, it sounded to me like I might be
the only one to purchase Joey. I agree he is a bit subdued (some people
think he sounds like a stoner) but I prefer him to James. My problem with
him is that he skips over text periodically, and that never happened to me
with James, or any other voice I've used in VoiceDream.

Containers and reading mail

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello,

I was surprised to read comments on this list advocating the use of
containers for reading mail. I'm sure that works quite well, but wonder if
people recommending this method have tried just flicking up with two fingers
from within the body of the message to read it. This easily avoids the
headings  in the first container, and reads through the contents of the
second container nicely. And, it has the advantage of only requiring one
gesture. Try it, you'll like it!

Latest Kings Corner Update Work-around

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello King's Corners fans,

I have just played a game successfully using the latest update, and would
disagree with the previous posts recommending that we avoid the update. It
is different, but still works just fine with a bit of extra tapping.

After you use the gesture to move a card on top of the target area, just
double tap an adjacent field and you will hear the sliding sound indicating
that the card has moved. Admittedly, it's different from what we're used to,
and the older way may have worked better for us, but it does still work.

I would love to see the developer implement the technique used in the
Chess-wise and Shredder chess games, where you would double tap a card to
select it, then double tap the target field, and the card would be moved. I
think this would be a lot easier than double tapping and holding, and then
sliding to the target.

iTunes not finding downloaded music

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello,

Could there be any setting on my iPhone I could change to affect a problem I
am having with iTunes? Any music I buy directly with my phone that's
downloaded later by iTunes, when I try to play it using iTunes, I'm told the
music cannot be found, and I'm asked do I want to locate it? Well, it's
right there, no problem at all to find, as far as I can tell, right where
iTunes should be looking for it. It's just a bother to have to go through
each album, telling iTunes where the music is, when it's quite obvious it's
right where it belong. Could I have changed an iTunes setting somewhere?

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jeffrey

RE: iOS7.0.6

[Jeffrey Turner]

Lest people are hesitant to upgrate to the latest version, here is an
article explaining why it was released:

Apple security flaw could allow hackers to beat encryption

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2014 01:04:28 -0500

Yahoo! News

By Joseph Menn

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A major flaw in Apple Inc software for mobile
devices could allow hackers to intercept email and other communications that
are

meant to be encrypted, the company said on Friday, and experts said Mac
computers were even more exposed.

If attackers have access to a mobile user's network, such as by sharing the
same unsecured wireless service offered by a restaurant, they could see or
alter

exchanges between the user and protected sites such as Gmail and Facebook. 
Governments with access to telecom carrier data could do the same.

It's as bad as you could imagine, that's all I can say, said Johns Hopkins
University cryptography professor Matthew Green.

Apple did not say when or how it learned about the flaw in the way iOS
handles sessions in what are known as secure sockets layer or transport
layer security,

nor did it say whether the flaw was being exploited.

But a statement on its support website was blunt: The software failed to
validate the authenticity of the connection.

Apple released software patches and an update for the current version of iOS
for iPhone 4 and later, 5th-generation iPod touches, and iPad 2 and later.

Without the fix, a hacker could impersonate a protected site and sit in the
middle as email or financial data goes between the user and the real site,
Green

said.

After analyzing the patch, several security researchers said the same flaw
existed in current versions of Mac OSX, running Apple laptop and desktop
computers.

No patch is available yet for that operating system, though one is expected
soon.

Because spies and hackers will also be studying the patch, they could
develop programs to take advantage of the flaw within days or even hours.

The issue is a fundamental bug in Apple's SSL implementation, said Dmitri
Alperovich, chief technology officer at security firm CrowdStrike Inc. Adam

Langley, a senior engineer at Google, agreed with CrowdStrike that OS X was
at risk.

Apple did not reply to requests for comment. The flaw appears to be in the
way that well-understood protocols were implemented, an embarrassing lapse
for

a company of Apple's stature and technical prowess.

The company was recently stung by leaked intelligence documents claiming
that authorities had 100 percent success rate in breaking into iPhones.

Friday's news suggests that enterprising hackers could have had great
success as well if they knew of the flaw.

Chess-wise 3 available in App Store

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello List Members,

A new upgraded version of Chess-wise can be found by searching for
Chess-wise 3. This week, the in-app purchase price is only $1.99. Next week
it goes up to $3.99.

This upgrade fixes some issues that appeared when IOS 7 came out, and
provides other enhancements the developer believes justifies the charge.

I like the ability this app has for setting up positions on the board and
playing from those positions. Although Shredder has this ability, it doesn't
work with VoiceOver, so that feature's no good to us.

Thanks,
Jeffrey

Possible Ssolution for VoiceOver Volume Problem

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello,

After reading on this list about the problems people were having with the
VoiceOver volume getting stuck at 35% with the only fix to reset the phone,
I disabled the VoiceOver volume changed using buttons.

Then, the other night, while playing iFarkle, I needed to lower my VoiceOver
volume, and did so by swiping up with two fingers to initiate a SayAll of
the screen's content, and pressing the volume down button until it got down
to where I wanted it. Now, I realize I shouldn't have been able to do this,
given that I had changed the setting, but I didn't think much about it at
the time. When I left the game, I tried to reset the volume to a normal
level, and couldn't do it using the same technique. So, I went to the
voiceover settings, looking for somewhere to jack the volume up again. I
couldn't find anything, which makes me wonder how you're supposed to be able
to adjust the volume of VoiceOver if that setting is turned off.

Then, when I got sick of the annoyingly low volume, I decided to go back
into iFarkle and try to adjust it there, and lo and behold, it worked. I was
able to turn the volume up, using the volume up button while VoiceOver was
speaking. So, apparently this setting is not consistent while within certain
apps.

I thought people who are stuck with their volumes low might want to try this
approach for resetting their volume back above 35%. It sure seems easier
than resetting the phone. I haven't tested this within other apps, but was
really glad to find it worked in iFarkle.

RE: Stereo Headset

[Jeffrey Turner]

I have another question on a related topic. Does anyone have any experience
with the LG HBS730 Tone+ stereo blue tooth headset? It's available from
Amazon for about $45 and a client just told me about it today. It is A2DP
compliant, so should work with VoiceOver and play content from Audible.com,
Bard mobile app, and VoiceDream. It comes with a sort of three-quarters of a
circle collar that has the controls and rests on your neck. The earpieces
are ear buds that stick directly in your ear, are connected to the collar by
short wires because they don't have to reach very far, and attach
magnetically back to the collar when you're done with them in your ears.

I'm curious if anyone has tried them yet, and whatever feedback you might be
willing to offer. Or, has anyone tried other LG blue tooth products?

Thanks,
Jeffrey

It has a little  thing on the side you could clip on a clip.  It also has

VoiceDream Tip for Latest Update

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hi,

I've been in touch with the VoiceDream developer to report that I can't use
the gestures in the latest release to move back or ahead by sentence. The
documentation says to use a two finger swipe left or right, and I couldn't
get either to work.

He responded that VoiceOver hijacks the gestures he tries to implement, but
that there is a viable work-around. Flicking up or down while focus is still
on the play/pause button works the same way the fast forward and rewind
buttons used to. So, IMHO, it's a cleaner interface with the same
functionality.

I discovered for myself that you just swipe up or down on the navigation
unit button to change that setting.

Enjoy,
Jeffrey

IOS Installed Voices in VoiceDream

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hello,

I just experimented with the IOS installed voices in voiceDream mentioned
earlier on this list. I enabled the U.K. English, Austrailian English, and
U.S. English voices. By just doubletapping on the enable buttons, they very
quickly became available to me.

I suspect though, that these are not the HQ voices, because they sound very,
very poor compared to the other voices like Paul I paid a couple bucks for.

My question is, should I expect the HQ voices to automagically download
themselves to my phone when it's plugged in, locked, and connected to WI/FI,
or are these voices as good as it gets?

Thanks,
Jeffrey

Subject: Weather widget and current temperature in iOS 7



While I have managed to get the weather widget to show in the today view of
the notification center, the current temperature seems to be missing.  Can
anyone confirm this, or am I experiencing an anomaly?

RE: Is this a bug in VO?

[Jeffrey Turner]

A similar thing just happened to me with two Capital One aps. One is
specifically for the Capital One 360 checking account, and the other is a
more generic ap allowing access to Capital One credit cards as well as the
360 checking account ap. Capital One, in its infinite wisdom, named both aps
just capital One, and changing the name of one ap was reflected in the name
of the other ap as well.

I ended up deleting the more specific, 360 checking  ap and am not bothered
by the phenomenon, but wanted to confirm that this can happen.

Hi Sandy,

Are you using VoiceOver's labeling function to name the folders? If so, use
the iOS method of naming your folders and you should be fine. When you
create a folder, there's a text box near the top where you can type in a
folder name. I've always named my folders this way, and I've never had one
folder renamed when I rename another.

Best,
Anna

 Hi Sandy,
 
 I would say that is a bug and it has happened to me and others with apps
and has been discussed a few times. For me it happened when I had downloaded
a camera app at one point which is called I think One Touch Camera. It takes
a picture or series of pictures as soon as you open the app. Anyhow, when I
installed the app, Voiceover read it simply as Camera just as it does with
the stock Camera App. So I thought I relabel it One Touch Camera and sure
enough my stock app now was called One Touch Camera as well.
 
 At least one other person I remember said the same thing whe he or she
tried to relabel a Weather app which was called Weather just as the stock
Weather app. She gave it another name and now the stock Weather app also was
called that.
 
 I did at one point write to Apple Accessibility about this since I think
it is definitely a bug and I would encourage you to do so as well. I think
in any case that a developer should not be allowed to give his or her app a
Voiceover label that is already used by a stock app or another app. I'm sure
there must be a way for the database of apps even though it is very large,
to be checked when an app is submitted to Apple. I believe a sighted user
has no problem because the app icon of let's say the Camera app and the One
Touch Camera app look different.

 I have 2 folders with apps in them; I want to label one Shopping and one
Knitting. I have successfully labeled many folder so it's not that I cannot
do it. But when I change the label of one of these two, the other changes as
well so I end up with 2 folders both called either Shopping or Knitting.
 
 It occurs to me that the  name given to both folders by IOS when they were

is there a workaround?

RE: Where is the setting for delete folder instead of archive in mail?

[Jeffrey Turner]

I have looked very carefully again, and still cannot find it. In rob's
answer, he said to find the advanced settings, and I can't find that either.
I am able to open the individual account screen that specifies your User
Name and Password, and whether to use ssl and settings like that, but
nothing that says Advanced, or refers to archive vs. delete messages.

So, If you're off hold now, and have time to find it, I'd really appreciate
the answer. I don't usually have this much trouble with this kind of thing.

Thanks again,
Jeffrey

Hi Geoff,

You will find this setting in SettingsMail, then go in to the specific
account by tapping on it. The setting is in there somewhere. I am currently
on hold on a call on my phone so can't give you the specific steps. However,
it is in this area, if you can't find it, let me know and I will document
the exact steps.

address. My question is, how do I select that and have the 3-letter code

running my finger around on the screen, I can't find it anywhere, and single
flicking down I don't find it. Can somebody tell me what I'm missing please?

RE: Muxic Question

[Jeffrey Turner]

I know at least one possible cause for crashes with Muxic, because it's
happening on my phone. Somehow, when I moved music to my phone with iTunes,
one of 11 songs on one album didn't come across, even though there is an
entry for that song in both Music and Muxic. When Music hits that song, it
does nothing--just sits there not knowing what to do. When Muxic hits it, it
bounces you out of the app. So, if your Muxic is crashing, this is something
you can at least check for.

The update released today in the US app store is supposed to fix crashing

have experienced less sluggishness. I won't say it is gone altogether, but
definitely not nearly as much. I'm also able to use other apps while Muxic
is going in the background, which before there was a delay with this. I
would love to be able to use normalization though without the sluggishness,
since not all of my tunes are at the same levels. Perhaps the next iPhone

RE: Muxic is an App Worth Checking Out

[Jeffrey Turner]

Yes, iFarkle is much more sluggish when I listen to music with the Muxic
app. This does not happen when using the native Music app.

I've noticed on my iPhone4 that when Muxic is open, Voiceover is a little
slower to respond and other things are slower to happen, both in and out of
the muxic app. Perhaps this is because my 32 GB iPhone is nearly full of
music and Audible books, but I still find it interesting that Muxic is
slowing things down, but when I close it out of the app switcher, the
processes return to their normal speed.
Anyone else seeing this on an iPhone4 running iOS 5.1.1?

Wayne Merritt

 Fred,

 I do know exactly what you're talking about.  You're talking about 
 playlist

 folders.

 Here's the deal: I DID figure out how to solve this problem.
  Unfortunately, the only solution is an undocumented API, which Apple 
 is always reticent to let through.  Hopefully their docs will change 
 soon, and

 I'll be able to submit a fix that will have the proper playlist 
 hierarchy intact.

  Jonathon, one of the things I have experienced with I-tunes, or 
 maybe, making use of it, is that when I create a folder of music and

 all of my other music folders. Has this problem been oliviated with 
 the app you are speaking about?

  I would assume you sync it normally, and it'll just pull it from the 
 library the normal music app uses. I could be wrong though since I 
 don't have the app.

 Jonathan,

 Using this app, how do you sync music to your phone?

  Hi all, for those who don't follow me on Twitter or haven't checked 
 out Applevis recently where Drew Webber posted a review, the Muxic 
 app is now

 pretty accessible. I'm so impressed with this that I've put it in the 
 dock

 of my 4S, replacing Apple's built-in Music App. Here's the 
 description from the App Store.



 Music lovers love Muxic.

 Why?

 Muxic gives you the most features of any music player on the app store.
 From crossfading to volume normalization to artist info and 
 exploration features, Muxic is the music fan's best friend.

 If you're passionate about music, Muxic is the only way to listen.

 Features:

 * Intelligent Crossfading eliminates the gaps between your music, 
 without

 fading out too early or fading in too late. It analyzes your music to 
 give

 you that radio-style listening
 experience you crave.

 * Per-song customization to further refine the crossfading fade-in, 
 fade-out, volume and normalization levels.

 * Volume normalization options that can make your quiet music louder.

 * Genre stations for quick mixes of similar music.

 * Similar artist stations makes playlists based on similar artists 
 that exist in your library.

 * Learn about your music with the artist info screen that has tons of 
 information about the artists in your library, including similar 
 artists,

 biographies, and more! (Data provided by The Echo Nest).

 * Tweet what you're listening to!

 * Gesture-enabled playlist, library and now playing screens.

 * Advanced playlist capabilities for easy playlist creation and 
 maintenance, including the ability to select whether you want to 
 replace the queue, mix into the queue, or append to the queue 
 whenever you want to add a group of songs.

 * Informative lock screen image to show you what's playing now, and 
 what's

 coming up soon.

 * Full song scrubbing.

 * Airplay enabled (via the lock screen).

 * Full support for headphone controls.

 * Full accessibility features for visually-impaired users.

 * Instructions built into the app.

 * Ability to turn off crossfading.

 Fine print: As is the case with most other crossfading apps, 
 DRM-protected

 music cannot be played 

RE: Free app for sending sms to multiple recipients

[Jeffrey Turner]

You are absolutely right. This was pointed out on the list yesterday. 

 

Does anyone have a method for removing recipients from a thread that started
with multiple recipients? Can you send a message to two people, get a reply
back, and continue on with only one of the two?

Hi Jeffrey,

 

I can easily sent a text message to multiple recipients using the native
Messages app. Tap Compose at the top right of the screen. Type the name or
part of a name and select that person from the list of choices. Now, for
example, you selected John Smith, it will now say :To and if you flick
right it will say John Smith button. If you flick right again you are once
again in an edit field and you can type another name and select it or, if
you flick right again, you have the Add from Addressbook button. Here you
can also pick a name and add it. If, for example, I add Sarah Green then
it will say To and after that John Smith button, Sarah Green button.
Now I can type my text and send it and it will send the message to whoever
you added. The conversation will be in your converdsation list and if you
want to send another message to the same group of people all you have to do
is double tap on the conversation, type in a new message and send it. 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

This is one rare instance where Apple has let us down. On the native Message

additional recipients to your message, which means sighted users have this
capability without having to use other appps. I have no idea why VoiceOver
can't detect this control, but no matter what I try, it doesn't see it.

RE: Looktel apps do not work accurately for me

[Jeffrey Turner]

Hate to state the obvious, but you do know the bill reader uses the camera
on the back, right, not the front facing camera?

Subject: Looktel apps do not work accurately for me

Hello,

I've posted in the past about the Looktel money recognizer being unable to
read any of the currency I throw at it. As of yet I've never, ever had a
bill be spoken. It doesn't matter if I put it on a table, hold it in front
of the camera, move it around, expose different parts of the currency, and
so on.

The object recognizer also doesn't work particularly accurately and often
gives unexpected results. A good example is that I've actually put, well,
bills, into the database, and these are always mixed up.

You don't suppose I could have a subtle problem with my camera, do you? We
don't notice anything when taking photos, but maybe there's a subtle scratch
on the camera or something? Do you have any ideas why the Looktel apps would
be behaving so oddly?

Best,

Grant

RE: Activating the Notification Center

[Jeffrey Turner]

Make sure VoiceOver is focused on one of the items along the top of the
phone. I use the time. Do your 3-finger swipe down from there, and it should
work.

Hi,

 

I'm doing quite well with most of the iPhone gestures, except the one that
enables one to activate the notification center.  I know you are supposed to
swipe downward with three fingers, but I can rarely get it to work or
replicate it once I have succeeded.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Requirements for notification of email arrival while phone is locked

[Jeffrey Turner]

I get CNN notifications all the time while my phone is locked. A friend
wants to receive mail notifications while his phone is locked, but when I
suggested that he set the notification center settings to sounds and banner
to match my CNN settings, he reported that it didn't work. 

Can anyone let us know what is needed to provide notifications of incoming
email while the phone is locked?

Thank you,
Jeffrey Turner
