Resolving an issue in iOS 8 which makes Bluetooth keyboard not working
Hi, If your Bluetooth keyboard doesn't work with VoiceOver except just a few functions in iOS 8.0 and iOS 8.0.2, try the following steps to resolve the issue. Once the problem disappears, it doesn't appear again unless you change the iPhone language in Settings, General, Language Region. To make the problem disappear from your iPhone, follow these steps: 1. If you use just one software keyboard, temporarily add an arbitrary one in Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards, Add New Keyboard. 2. Open the Notes app. 3. Create a new note. 4. Press the left arrow key and the right arrow key simultaneously to turn off the quick navigation option. 5. Hold down the command key and press the space key several times to cycle through the list of software keyboards. 6. Press the left arrow key and the right arrow key simultaneously to turn on the quick navigation option. 7. Now your Bluetooth keyboard should work fine except other iOS bugs. 8. You may delete the software keyboard temporarily added at Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards. This is a copy of the email sent to RiVO customers to resolve the issue ( http://goo.gl/GiBvWy) since we have found that it should also resolve the problem for other Bluetooth keyboards as well.

Re: Changes to Goodreads App
For some reason I find it complex to use goodreads on my pc. Havent checked the ap out in a while. I wonder if its just on IOS 8 that the changes took effect, or if its the same with IOS 7 and if voice over now will not read the screen properly? Shirley From: Michelle Bernstein Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2014 3:03 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Changes to Goodreads App I was not pleased to go to the Goodreads app yesterday and discover that this company automatically updated my app. One of the updates they made is quite a nuisance to my eyes. They changed the Currently Reading section of My Books from text to a visual image of the book cover with a progress bar. I was unable to figure out how to delete these currently reading titles from the app so I went to my pc and deleted both my currently reading titles and my to be read titles. Interestingly, the currently reading titles still remain on my app while they have been elimatinated on my pc. The to be read titles were eliminated in both the app and on the pc. The section called read consisting of books that I have completed appears to be unchanged. I did email the support team at goodreads and requested that they not automatically update all the apps and that they offer an opt out. I explained the effects of this automatic update to persons like myself with limited vision and expressed disappointment that they did not appear to be aware or interested in this segment of the reading population.

Re: Any thoughts on screen protectors?
I wonder how many times I've mentioned that to the SpeedDots people, for mBraille, now iOs braille; same layout, so would work both; but they don't seem to be listening. As a thought, and I did do this; since screen protectors are quite flexible as plastic, I took a new one, and having measured a bit, folded it just above where I reckon the top of the ordinary keyboard should have been. I creased it, flattened it out, then fitted it. The line remains forever as a datum point, and it was pretty close, so did the guiding job even if not spot on. In short, Anybody could bodge about with a stylus, ballpoint or whatever and improvise something; and could be of benefit, even if it don't look quite professional. Doesn't work so well when you have a case with builtin screen cover, but have been known to cut that out with a Stanley knife and put a SpeedDots cover on instead. the rest of the case did the protection thing just as good. Something to experiment with.

I pretty much always use cases with a built-in screen protector, such as the OtterBox Defender or Griffin Survivor. For the first little while that I had my iPhone 4, I used a Pixelspec HD case with a Solona screen protector, but the protector kept getting pushed up on the sides by the case. I ended up removing the protector and the case, and switching to an OtterBox Defender. When that broke some time after getting my iPhone 4S, (the case lasted about four years for me) I moved to a Griffin Survivor. When I get my new iPhone six, I'll most likely be moving back to the OtterBox defender again, since I like that style of case and clip better then the Griffin Survivor. The Defender allows easier access to the camera then does the Survivor. This was by design, as the Survivor has been made to comply with higher military specifications in regards to how much dirt, dust, moisture, etc. to protect against. The Survivors clip also grips the case in such a way that the charging port is unable to be accessed, and the Defender does not. I haven't yet decided if I'm going to get a tactile screen protector from Speeddots that works with my iPhone 6's Defender case. Lol. It looks like I've made up my mind that I'm going to get an OtterBox cup of defender case for my new iPhone, as I'm talking like I have already decided to do so.

Restoring phone - top tips please
Dear listers I have a feeling my 8.0.2 install is more buggy than it should be. I get strange Siri behaviour where often she doesn’t speak or her speech is cropped. I also have an issue where she doesn’t recognise the mic in the earbuds even when it’s plugged in but can hear the built in mic. Also whenever I change the volume when listening to something and the screen is locked the screen lights and things are spoken out which obscures the audio. So all in all I’m thinking it would be good to start afresh and I was wondering what the best way to do this would be so that I have a completely fresh install of iOS but can then bring back my settings without risking bringing back the buggy behaviour as well.

Re: Could somebody who has an Airplay device test Airplay
I can reproduce this whenever I stream content from my iPhone 5C to my Apple TV. It's definitely a bug. Cheryl Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Sent from my iPhone On Sep 28, 2014, at 5:52 PM, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote: Hello, I was quite shocked when I just wanted to send an Audible book to my Airport Express which is connected to my Sonos system. I was using my wife’s iPod Touch and at first Airplay was not even an option in Control Centre. It also appears that Audible has finally followed Apple’s lead and taken it out of the app which means the only way to activate Airplay is via the Control Centre. So, I rebooted the iPod Touch Fifth Gen which I recently upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and then Airplay was there. I selected Sonos and was shocked to find that Voiceover was sent to Sonos along wit hthe stream from Audible. This was definitely not the case before the iOS 8.0.2 upgrade and if Apple has indeed messed this up we are back to where we were when Airplay was first introduced which I think was in iOS 5. Just as it was back then the reaction time between swiping or touching something and it being announced via Airplay is about 4 seconds… absolutely terrible. I have been trying to play something via Airplay on my iPhone 5S, but can’t even get the Airplay option to show up in Control Centre. OK, now I did another reboot of my iPhone and was able to select Airplay and with great relief I am finding that Voiceover remains on the device and is responsive. However, another reboot of the iPod Touch Fifth Gen still sends Voiceover to the Airplay device which really is not good. The Voiceover sounds and other click and systems sounds play on the device so I assume this is definitely a bug. I will have to write to accessibil...@apple.com about this. As I said, maybe whoever has an Airplay device can do some checking especially if you own multiple devices such as an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

Yes, it is right. But remember that are many many sighted people no very happy with iPhone 6 and iPhone 6+. Do not think that we are the problem.

Pablo, Whether we give money to Apple by buying iPhones will make no difference, I mean zero. Apple sold over ten million iPhones during the launch weekend, I think it was something like 4 million during the first 24 hours of when preorders were available on the internet. This also does not include China where the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have not yet been released and where Apple will sell a ton of new iPhones once they become available. Do you really think that even if 50,000 were bought by blind or visually impaired people that would make a dent? Based on 10 million that would be 0.5% and I bet that the number of phones bought by blind people is much smaller. By the way, anybody who buys a new 5S now will get it with iOS 8 preinstalled, just because it is last year's phone doesn't mean Apple will ship it with last year's iOS. Anybody who has an iPhone of course can choose to stay with iOS 7.1.2, but anybody who is in the market for an iPhone now whether a 5S, 6 or 6 Plus will have to deal with iOS 8. I also think that Apple does listen. Yes, they haven't listened a lot I think during the Beta cycle to the few blind people who submitted Voiceover related bug reports, but I have no doubt that iOS 8 Voiceover bugs will be addressed and saying that Apple does not listen is just not true. Whether things will be worse when iOS 9 is release remains to be seen, claiming it will be worse at this point is nothing but a claim or guess which can't be substantiated.

Nope, are another solution. Keep IOs 7.1.2, and do not upgrade to IOs8, like this, no bugs will be doing anything in your iDevice. If you don't have and iPhone, do not buy any iPhone 6s or iPhone 6. Just buy an iPhone 5s, that is cheaper, and with IOs 7.1.2. The blind community is been very affected with these bugs, and apple is paying to us the same attention that walmart does when a blind person make complain about the traffic in the stores. I mean, nothing. We have the solution. We have the money that they want, we have it in our pockets. We have the power. Do not give them money, until they have a good thing to offert to us.

RE: issues I have with the new update.
Sieghard If you continue defending the apple business, you will not be improving your life quality. You will not improve the apple devices, you will not improve the IOs8 quality either. Maybe you are protecting your own business now, but one year ago, I said the same things that now the people on the list, and around the world is saying. Apple is abusing. But if you continue on that position, next year this issue is going to be worse, not better. Business doesn't work like this. They want the money of the customers, if they don't receive our money, they need to improve their products, to make it fancy or attractive for us. They will not improve IOs 8 quality, or accessibility quality, if we looks so happy with their job. When you every year pay almost a thousand of dollars for one new apple phone, it means that you are happy with what ever they have done. Again, I am not talking about only about blind people. I am talking about every body, because you and every body here, been blind, is people, right? Ok, it is my point. Many times, we run to the apple store, to buy what ever they put on their desks. They are making money with our money. But we are getting a lot of problems with their IOs releases every year. What is the solution? Run and buy a new iPhone every year? Get the IOs bugs, and wait until apple developers fix their bugs? Be patience with apple? They are patience with the customers? Are you paying them little bit by little bit, or you have to pay everything on one time, or you have to sign a contract for 2 or 3 years with who ever sales iPhones? Why we have to be patience??

Re: issues I have with the new update.
The only way to improve products is to use them and report bugs when we find them, as stated before if every person using accessibility stopped buying it wouldn't make not a single bit of difference, and apple isn't making money off accessibility; they could just stop doing it, period. I can't go in and buy an android phone off the shelf and use it. I can't buy a windows computer right off the shelf and use it. I can with apple, and no they don't have to do it at all. The only way to improve things is from within, and refusing to buy will do nothing for accessibility.

You will not improve the apple devices, you will not improve the IOs8 quality either. Maybe you are protecting your own business now, but one year ago, I said the same things that now the people on the list, and around the world is saying. Apple is abusing. But if you continue on that position, next year this issue is going to be worse, not better. Business doesn't work like this. They want the money of the customers, if they don't receive our money, they need to improve their products, to make it fancy or attractive for us. They will not improve IOs 8 quality, or accessibility quality, if we looks so happy with their job. When you every year pay almost a thousand of dollars for one new apple phone, it means that you are happy with what ever they have done. Again, I am not talking about only about blind people. I am talking about every body, because you and every body here, been blind, is people, right? Ok, it is my point. Many times, we run to the apple store, to buy what ever they put on their desks. They are making money with our money. But we are getting a lot of problems with their IOs releases every year. What is the solution? Run and buy a new iPhone every year? Get the IOs bugs, and wait until apple developers fix their bugs? Be patience with apple? They are patience with the customers? Are you paying them little bit by little bit, or you have to pay everything on one time, or you have to sign a contract for 2 or 3 years with who ever sales iPhones? Why we have to be patience?? No, of course no. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.

Re: Adding apps to the duck
You move them there, assuming there is room. To move an app, double tap and hold on it,leaving your finger down until VoiceOver says editing apps. Drag the app where you want it, the dock in your case, and release it. This takes some practice, but it is doable once you get the hang of it.

Re: Issue with deleting email
Hello there Christopher, and others, Thank you for attempting to help me. I really appreciate it. I believe my account is set up as a pop account. How do I find out what it is set up as? Also, if I want to change it, how do I do this? I went into the settings, but I did not see this as an option. I did change the setting to delete messages, instead of archive them. So I do have this fixed. However, this problem is still happening. It seems to be just in the inbox. As far as I can tell. I haven't checked other folders. Although, there are a lot of messages in my trash folder.over 4000, as it first I was just moving them, and not actually deleting them. Is there a way to delete all these messages out of here? Or do I have to do it one by one? I sure as heck hope not. Any help, and/or suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thank you again.

What you describe could happen if you're using POP and you don't have it configured to remove the messages from the server after downloading them or deleting them. Also, are you just talking about the in box? When using IMAP, if you delete a message from the in box Gmail moves it to your trash folder, so you'll still see it in your trash and all mail folders. Also, last I knew, the email client on the iPhone defaulted to moving your email to the archive folder. You can change this in your email settings to have your messages sent to the trash folder instead of the archive folder. You'll see archive instead of delete at the bottom of your messages and in the roter when you flick down if you haven't changed this default yet.

I can not say whether or not this is a new problem, as I have just recently started deleting my mail. As crazy as that sounds. When trying to delete messages, they don't get deleted.

It doesn't make sense to me. They disappear, as though they have been deleted. But then when I start the milk Landover, either because I am finished, or voiceover steps, I come back and a bunch of the messages are still there. What would cause this to happen? Why is this going on? Is anyone else having this issue? Any help with this problem would be very much appreciated. It is very annoying, as I get a lot of mail. I'm tired of this happening.

I just might let them know this. First, when a person dials a number manually with voice-over, the numbers stick. I don't know if this is fixed in IOS 8.02 or not. Second, I use my blue tooth keyboard a lot. Now my key board does not type or activate items with Voice-over. I can navigate on the screen. But not type or activate items. On previous updates the issues mentioned above didn't exist. I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they couldn't figure out the issue. I am not mad at the technicians at the store. I am upset with the developers of Apple. They should know better. Also what's this crap of them updating the software and then having the cell phone service not working. If apple keeps this bull crap going on they will lose customer such as myself who have grown to love Apple products. I might email apple and let them know this.

home made screen protectors - Re: Any thoughts on screen protectors?
Kind of sounds like one of those sheets from a raised line drawing kit would work as a home made screen protector. Put the sheet onto the phone and have someone draw what you want, where it is as they see it through the sheet on the screen of the iDevice , then secure it with double sided tape. --- Be positive!

I wonder how many times I've mentioned that to the SpeedDots people, for mBraille, now iOs braille; same layout, so would work both; but they don't seem to be listening. As a thought, and I did do this; since screen protectors are quite flexible as plastic, I took a new one, and having measured a bit, folded it just above where I reckon the top of the ordinary keyboard should have been. I creased it, flattened it out, then fitted it. The line remains forever as a datum point, and it was pretty close, so did the guiding job even if not spot on. In short, Anybody could bodge about with a stylus, ballpoint or whatever and improvise something; and could be of benefit, even if it don't look quite professional. Doesn't work so well when you have a case with builtin screen cover, but have been known to cut that out with a Stanley knife and put a SpeedDots cover on instead. the rest of the case did the protection thing just as good. Something to experiment with.

Now you mention screen protectors. Is there anyone who has got the idea to make a screen protector with some tactile marks that would allow you more easily to place your fingers correct when typing in braille with mbraille or with apples new teriffic braille input. Best regards Annie. Den 29/09/2014 kl. 03.07 skrev Christopher Chaltain chalt...@gmail.com: iPhones aren't made with ordinary glass. They're made with Corning's gorilla glass and they have additional scratch resistance added. I won't say they can't be scratched, but I wouldn't say that they scratch very easily either. I use the tactile screen protectors from SpeedDots. I find the tactile feedback helps when exploring by touch and jumping straight to different objects on the screen. I got the screen protector for this reason and not because I was worried about scratches. My wife tosses her phone into her purse, and she uses both a case and a screen protector, and I think she's pretty smart for doing that given how she uses her phone and the fact that she doesn't want to worry about it. I'd say whether you want to use a screen protector comes down to how you use your phone. I wouldn't let anyone make you feel bad for not using one or talk you into not using one if you're going to be worrying about scratching your screen.

I was using my wife’s iPod Touch and at first Airplay was not even an option in Control Centre. It also appears that Audible has finally followed Apple’s lead and taken it out of the app which means the only way to activate Airplay is via the Control Centre. So, I rebooted the iPod Touch Fifth Gen which I recently upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and then Airplay was there. I selected Sonos and was shocked to find that Voiceover was sent to Sonos along wit hthe stream from Audible. This was definitely not the case before the iOS 8.0.2 upgrade and if Apple has indeed messed this up we are back to where we were when Airplay was first introduced which I think was in iOS 5. Just as it was back then the reaction time between swiping or touching something and it being announced via Airplay is about 4 seconds… absolutely terrible. I have been trying to play something via Airplay on my iPhone 5S, but can’t even get the Airplay option to show up in Control Centre. OK, now I did another reboot of my iPhone and was able to select Airplay and with great relief I am finding that Voiceover remains on the device and is responsive. However, another reboot of the iPod Touch Fifth Gen still sends Voiceover to the Airplay device which really is not good. The Voiceover sounds and other click and systems sounds play on the device so I assume this is definitely a bug. I will have to write to accessibil...@apple.com mailto:accessibil...@apple.com about this. As I said, maybe whoever has an Airplay device can do some checking especially if you own multiple devices such as an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

RE: issues I have with the new update.
Good morning Pablo, My iPhone is totally improving my quality of life and my efficiency in running my business. I think I am speaking for many if I say that the iPhone has revolutionized the way we can interact with information on a mobil platform. What Apple has done by putting such a level of accessibility into an off-the-shelf mass market device might just be the most important thing that has happened to how blind people use technology ever. Maybe now an Android phone might give good accessibility, but it sure didn't when I bought my first iPhone 4 years ago and as somebody who has sensitive data on my phone relating to my business the iPhone is in my opinion superior because of the security it offers. As far as improving Apple products or iOS 8 in particular, not using it and not providing feedback to Apple regarding the bugs will do even less. If all blind people thought like you and nobody had downloaded iOS 8 and reported back to Apple how would they fix the issues? Eventually we all have to upgrade because our old devices will be no longer supported. Sure, I could probably use my iPhone 5S with iOS 7.1.2 for another 3 or 4 years, but at that point I probably start running into problems because app developers are no longer supporting such an old version of iOS and so on. Then I have 2 options: either upgrade to the latest iOS version which if no blind people used it and provided bug reports to Apple would probably have even more bugs as you predict or I could switch to another platform which maybe is better and maybe it's not. I think if you are so set on not giving Apple anything you should sell your iPhone and move to Android. One good thing is that you may not have to complain avout upgrading because you might not be able to upgrade given the fragmentation of devices and the fact they often either can't run newer versions of Android or the carriers don't offer them. I know we won't see eye to eye on this, but that's of course OK as we all are entitled to our opinions. I totally agree that iOS 8 especially for Voiceover users is full of bugs and that it has more bugs than other iOS releases. But the difference between you and me is that I always try to see the good things first both in people and products. You focus on the bad aspects of a product first and for you these negative aspects overshadow the good aspects. Like I said, everybody is entitled to their opinions and to look at the world and the people around us any which way they like, but I prefer the positive approach and believe in trying to make a difference if I can. I believe Apple still has a commitment to accessibility and that there are probably reasons why they couldn't fix these bugs when iOS 8 was released. The new iOS goes with new devices and there is probably so much more involved in such a release than we'll ever know and it's unlikely they can simply push it back by a month or 2. OK, that's my last post regarding this topic so, Pablo, as I said before, continue with iOS 7.1.2 and decide for yourself when you feel it's safe to upgrade or maybe skip iOS 8 altogether and see what people say about iOS 9. If you are so convinced that accessibility in iOS will continue to get worse than I would totally encourage you to buy an Android phone and see if Google listens better when you tell them about the bugs in their OS which I have no doubt exist.

Sieghard If you continue defending the apple business, you will not be improving your life quality. You will not improve the apple devices, you will not improve the IOs8 quality either. Maybe you are protecting your own business now, but one year ago, I said the same things that now the people on the list, and around the world is saying. Apple is abusing. But if you continue on that position, next year this issue is going to be worse, not better. Business doesn't work like this. They want the money of the customers, if they don't receive our money, they need to improve their products, to make it fancy or attractive for us. They will not improve IOs 8 quality, or accessibility quality, if we looks so happy with their job. When you every year pay almost a thousand of dollars for one new apple phone, it means that you are happy with what ever they have done. Again, I am not talking about only about blind people. I am talking about every body, because you and every body here, been blind, is people, right? Ok, it is my point. Many times, we run to the apple store, to buy what ever they put on their desks. They are making money with our money. But we are getting a lot of problems with their IOs releases every year. What is the solution? Run and buy a new iPhone every year? Get the IOs bugs, and wait until apple developers fix

I read that this one also affects sighted users and it seems that some apps just randomly can't access the camera even though they are allowed to. The good news is that if this is not isolated to Voiceover then a fix will probably be more likely to come sooner rather than later. I would try the following: 1. Turn off Camera in Privacy for Light Detector, then delete the app. 2. Throw everything out of the app switcher and reboot your phone, i.e. turn it off completely, wait 30 seconds and turn it on again. 3. Download the app again from the App Store and hopefully when you open it the first time you will be prompted to allow the app to use the camera and it will then work.

RE: issues I have with the new update.
Hi Alia, You shouldn't have said this about not being able to buy an Android phone off the shelf and not being able to use it. I bet you'll get a bunch of replies from Android users on this list who will tell you that Android has very good built-in accessibility and that the upcoming new Android release is supposed to be even better. I absolutely think that is fantastic and I absolutely hope Android accessibility improves further because competition is a good thing. I will, however, stick with iOS because I am invested in their eco system both with apps and other devices and feel it's still a superior and more importantly a more secure platform.

The only way to improve products is to use them and report bugs when we find them, as stated before if every person using accessibility stopped buying it wouldn't make not a single bit of difference, and apple isn't making money off accessibility; they could just stop doing it, period. I can't go in and buy an android phone off the shelf and use it. I can't buy a windows computer right off the shelf and use it. I can with apple, and no they don't have to do it at all. The only way to improve things is from within, and refusing to buy will do nothing for accessibility.

You will not improve the apple devices, you will not improve the IOs8 quality either. Maybe you are protecting your own business now, but one year ago, I said the same things that now the people on the list, and around the world is saying. Apple is abusing. But if you continue on that position, next year this issue is going to be worse, not better. Business doesn't work like this. They want the money of the customers, if they don't receive our money, they need to improve their products, to make it fancy or attractive for us. They will not improve IOs 8 quality, or accessibility quality, if we looks so happy with their job. When you every year pay almost a thousand of dollars for one new apple phone, it means that you are happy with what ever they have done. Again, I am not talking about only about blind people. I am talking about every body, because you and every body here, been blind, is people, right? Ok, it is my point. Many times, we run to the apple store, to buy what ever they put on their desks. They are making money with our money. But we are getting a lot of problems with their IOs releases every year. What is the solution? Run and buy a new iPhone every year? Get the IOs bugs, and wait until apple developers fix their bugs? Be patience with apple? They are patience with the customers? Are you paying them little bit by little bit, or you have to pay everything on one time, or you have to sign a contract for 2 or 3 years with who ever sales iPhones? Why we have to be patience?? No, of course no. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.

Re: issues I have with the new update.

Nothing comes close to the iphone for being able to buy and go, and the reason I am on an iphone list is because I firmly believe that still. If I wanted to bash idevices I would go to an android list and do so; I am here to make it easier for myself and others to use these phones, not complain that we should all stop buying them.

Now it just says Confirm Clear Section and you double tap then make sure you double tap again on the Confirm Clear Section for the same notification of course and it should work.

RE: Could somebody who has an Airplay device test Airplay
Hi Tim, Could you check it again and be a bit more specific, e.g. what Airplay device do you have and when you say not reliable do you mean the Airplay button doesn't always show up or that Voiceover goes to your Airplay device rather than staying on the iPhone or iPad? I am trying to get a sense as to what exactly is going on but it's important to specify the exact iDevice model and what Airplay device and what exactly is working, not working or not reliable.

LookTel Money Reader in IOS 8
Recently I read that the Money Reader isn't working in IOS 8. I saw some work arounds posted here but I wonder if anyone has gotten it to work. This week end I worked on a friends 5S with IOS 8 and found that no matter what I did the Money Reader would start but the camera wouldn't open. I checked in settings to see that the camera was set to on but no go. Is there really a way to get this to work or does she have to wait for an update from LookTel? Thanks.

RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?
Tom, Are you maybe not doing a perfect double tap but maybe you move your finger a bit and it registers as a swipe? Also, are you swiping to the Confirm Clear section button or do you find it by exploring the screen? I just tried it by exploring the screen and it's awefully hard to find. When I finally did find it I left my finger there and did a split tap and then still without moving my finger did another split tap and that also got rid of the notifications, but for me swiping to it and then doing a fast one-finger triple tap seems to be the most efficient way. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Tom Rash Sent: Monday, September 29, 2014 6:37 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?

RE: LookTel Money Reader in IOS 8
Hi Karl, This seems to be one of these random problems with iOS 8. Both Money Reader and Light Detector are working fine for me. I have been running iOS 8 starting with Beta 1 in June and both apps always have orked. I did a new install of iOS 8 last week and both apps still work. I believe there is a camera bug which affects not only Voiceover users so this would probably be more something Apple has to fix rather than an issue with LookTel Money Reader or Light Detector. I heard this on the Today in iOS podcast, but when I just did a quick Google search I couldn't find too much except I found one thread from a Skype forum where people were reporting they got a black screen when trying to do a video call from their iPads (of various generations) so this sounds similar. I would definitely write to accessibil...@apple.com mailto:accessibil...@apple.com to report this.

RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?
I don't use the split tap very much. I did put my finger on the confirm button and touched on the screen with another. I assume this is the right jesture for split tap. Still no go. I can delete individually. Just wondering why, for me, the use of the confirm button no longer works since IOS 8. One more thing, if described above is the correct way to use split finger jesture, it doesn't work for anything. Tried to open other apps using that jesture and nothing. Do you think something in settings could account for these results? -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Monday, September 29, 2014 7:05 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem? Tom, Are you maybe not doing a perfect double tap but maybe you move your finger a bit and it registers as a swipe? Also, are you swiping to the Confirm Clear section button or do you find it by exploring the screen? I just tried it by exploring the screen and it's awefully hard to find. When I finally did find it I left my finger there and did a split tap and then still without moving my finger did another split tap and that also got rid of the notifications, but for me swiping to it and then doing a fast one-finger triple tap seems to be the most efficient way. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Tom Rash Sent: Monday, September 29, 2014 6:37 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?

Re: issues I have with the new update.
Yes,, and it is very ingeresting that Apple's iPhone set the new record for number of phones sold during the first weekend at 10 million phones. The previous record was set last year at 4 or 5 million phones during the first weekend by, u, Apple. Yes, this is a product line that is experiencing quite a lot of problems and frustrations by their customers.

Pablo, Whether we give money to Apple by buying iPhones will make no difference, I mean zero. Apple sold over ten million iPhones during the launch weekend, I think it was something like 4 million during the first 24 hours of when preorders were available on the internet. This also does not include China where the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have not yet been released and where Apple will sell a ton of new iPhones once they become available. Do you really think that even if 50,000 were bought by blind or visually impaired people that would make a dent? Based on 10 million that would be 0.5% and I bet that the number of phones bought by blind people is much smaller. By the way, anybody who buys a new 5S now will get it with iOS 8 preinstalled, just because it is last year's phone doesn't mean Apple will ship it with last year's iOS. Anybody who has an iPhone of course can choose to stay with iOS 7.1.2, but anybody who is in the market for an iPhone now whether a 5S, 6 or 6 Plus will have to deal with iOS 8. I also think that Apple does listen. Yes, they haven't listened a lot I think during the Beta cycle to the few blind people who submitted Voiceover related bug reports, but I have no doubt that iOS 8 Voiceover bugs will be addressed and saying that Apple does not listen is just not true. Whether things will be worse when iOS 9 is release remains to be seen, claiming it will be worse at this point is nothing but a claim or guess which can't be substantiated. Enjoy iOS 7.1.2, I think it was an excellent choice not to update and I'm sure if you keep checking the list you'll hear all about it when bugs are fixed.

Nope, are another solution. Keep IOs 7.1.2, and do not upgrade to IOs8, like this, no bugs will be doing anything in your iDevice. If you don't have and iPhone, do not buy any iPhone 6s or iPhone 6. Just buy an iPhone 5s, that is cheaper, and with IOs 7.1.2. The blind community is been very affected with these bugs, and apple is paying to us the same attention that walmart does when a blind person make complain about the traffic in the stores. I mean, nothing. We have the solution. We have the money that they want, we have it in our pockets. We have the power. Do not give them money, until they have a good thing to offert to us. Because if we give the money before they do anything, probably, they will not do anything, or not what we want really. I know that they people who has business with apple, is going to defend apple. Even though, one year ago I said the same thing that today the most part of the list is saying. Let me tell you one more thing. Next year, this issue is going to be worse.

iOS 8 and twitter apps
Greetings all. Got my iPhone 6 64 GB Friday and have been playing with it this weekend. I have been using TweetList 4 forever but noticed that when I load it on the iPhone 6, tweets and who they are from are not read correctly. So, I'm looking for another twitter app. I tried the native Twitter app but got errors related to my password, even though when I entered my Twitter password in other apps it worked fine. I downloaded Twitterrific 5, which I had previously purchased, yesterday and it seems to be working fine. I have had issues with Twitterrific remembering my place before, but it seems to be working good so far. Any ideas? Running iOS 8.0.2 on an iPhone 6.

Rebooted several times.. No go. Also, my mistake, the split tap does work for apps but not to open folders, which may be normal. As I mentioned, I normally don't use that jesture.

Re: issues I have with the new update.
Oh lord. Now the economy is handle like you said? Buying things that are not working well, improve the quality of the product? Where is the value of the competition in this formula? Yes, apple as android, as many other brans has to work with the accessibility. It is mandatory now. It is mandatory because the government in United States is making a hard pression about it. The problem is that all this brans doesn't have to do a good accessibility. They have to create accessibility, how it works is something that is going to shown by the market. Now, if we, the blind community every year, go to the apple store, and buy what ever apple create, as watches, iPhones, when we are getting hard problems with the accessibility, we are hurting our pocket, because we are buying something that is not doing a good job. The competence in the market is who make the good products, is not people who love a product, and go to buy it, no matter the problems that those products has. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?
Usually you do get a generic response within a day or so. I sent in 2 messages last week and didn't get one. By the way, a split tab also opens folders and I think you are the only person for whom 2 double taps on the Confirm clear section doesn't work. Sorry, I know that doesn't necessary help, but I haven't heard anybody else report that this doesn't work.

Now it just says Confirm Clear Section and you double tap then make sure you double tap again on the Confirm Clear Section for the same notification of course and it should work. What I mean is that if you double tap Confirm Clear Section for Messages and then you double tap a second time but you are actually tapping on Confirm Clear Section for Mail then of course it won't work. For me at least a fast one-finger triple tap also works 100%, but double tapping and double tapping again also works.

RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?
Hi Teresa, I just tried this on my wife’s iPod Touch Fifth Gen which I upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and both doing a one-finger double tap twice or doing a one-finger triple tap once will clear any particular section in the Notification Center. I had both message notifications and a Tips app notification and I cleared the messages section by doing a double tap twice and then the Tips section by doing a triple tap once. I really am not sure why this doesn’t seem to work for Tom and you and it would be interesting to know if others are not able to do this, either.

Switching keyboards is the work around needed to fix issues with the bluetooth keyboard support. I think for the stuck numbers bug you can try removing the phone app from your app switcher.

RE: issues I have with the new update.
Actually, I know bugs are a pain. But you don't have to get the upgrade or buy a device right away if you've heard there are bugs. No software/hardware can work out all bugs in a system. Sometimes the system has to be finally released, even with the knowledge that there are bugs, some maybe being considered major to some. Bugs are in the nature of software development. Human's aren't perfect, nor is software. Be patient. Apple has in the past released fixes for the bugs. I am by no means congratulating apple by saying this, I as a software developer understand release cycles, and the processes involved and all of the pains, and hardships that come with releasing a new product into the wild. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Pablo Morales Sent: Monday, September 29, 2014 10:29 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: issues I have with the new update.

Hi, For now, I am holding off on upgrading to IOS 8, until they fix some of the Voice Over bugs. I have a iPhone 4s and a iPad III. I am thinking that, as these are both older devices, I may want to wait until I get new devices to upgrade, even after the bugs are fixed. What kind of performance are people getting with VO on older devices with IOS 8? Thanks, Scott Duck -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

I'm not sure what you mean by the references below to not being able to use Android phones or Windows computers off the shelf. A blind person can enable Talk Back on an Android phone without any sighted assistance. I've done this myself on a Nexis 7. Windows has also added a hot key to start Narrator. I'm not sure if I could have set up my wife's Windows 8 computer without any sighted assistance, but after she set up her account, she handed it to me and I was able to start Narrator, set up my account and download NVDA without any sighted help. If you mean that Android and Windows don't have screen access built into their system and can be setup without sighted assistance then I don't think that's an accurate statement. If you mean that Talk Back and Narrator aren't as polished as VoiceOver then that may be true, but blind people can definitely use Android.
