Re: Article: Apple on target for October MacBook Release

[David Chittenden]

There were no 7+ available, so I went with the 7 two days ago. I will probably 
switch back to the + size iPhone next year. I do love my 7.

I wonder about the memory as well.  The Mac Pro can be upgraded considerably 
maybe that’s the product they want to move but you’d think they would give more

Hi Phil, I think you mean usb to lightning.  Apple really couldn’t have made 
that more confusing if they wanted to.:)  Thunderbolt is the high speed (I 
think 10 or 20 gigabit) port on the laptops and lightning is the small 
connector providing power and connectivity on the bottom of the iPhone or iPad 
etc.
 

Why apple doesn’t include Lightning on the laptops I don’t know and couldn’t 
they have used different names so people wouldn’t be confused, who knows.

 OK, so I just tried my bluetooth U E Mobile Boombox speaker's internal

 I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm audible, but there is absolutely no low 
 end, and I do mean none.  It's so high frequency that it is practically 
 earsplitting.
 
 What I'm seeking therefore is a good bluetooth mike that has a good 
 balance between low, mid, and high frequency response, and is bluetooth 
 ready.  Let me make it very very clear.  I already have a set of 
 aftershockz. I don't want to unpare those from my phone though.  I'm not 
 looking for another bluetooth headset. Make that clear. I don't want a 
 headset.  What I'm asking for is simply just a bluetooth stand-alone mike, 
 and nothing else.  I don't need the headphone part of it.
 
 Any suggestions, aside the snarky, want me to send you a headset? I'll be 
 happy to break the headphones for ya. LOL! Just kidding.  Seriously 
 though. Any ideas?

RE: Facetime for Apple users only?

[Simon Fogarty]

Tim,

I find one of your comments interesting,

When I press the button on the ear pods I find it kills the phone call I’ve got 
coming in or in action,

Is there something you need  to do to enable the ear pod button to answer a 
call?

Re: New Macbook Air for Christmas

[Scott Granados]

Memory limitations aside, I’m very very happy with my mid 2015 MacBook pro. It 
does very well with virtual environments and performs very well on just about 
everything I can throw at it.  Upgradable no but I could see it lasting and 
being usable for quite a while.

Re: Facetime for Apple users only?

[Tim Kilburn]

Simon,  It's just always worked for me.  I wonder if you're pressing a 
different area of the button on the ear-buds?  I press the centre of the 
buttons, the area where you'd play/pause/skip.  On the iPhone itself, if you 
press the up or down volume while a call is coming in, then it will silence the 
ringer, press the button a second time and the call will be sent directly to 
VoiceMail.  This also works with the Lock button.  So, keeping that in mind, I 
choose to press the centre button of the ear-buds as opposed to the up/down 
volume buttons.

I will test that later today if I get a chance.

Re: Facetime for Apple users only?

[Scott Granados]

To answer E.T.’s question, I believe verizon does have WiFi calling.  They 
didn’t when I was there but I think it’s been added since.

Go to settings, phone, and look for a WiFi calling option and try enabling it.

automatically add files to iTunes

[Christina C.]

Hello,

So, sometimes when I download an audio file my Mac automatically unzips the 
file and starts playing it in iTunes and then it is added to my library both on 
my computer and on iCloud. I obviously want these files on my Mac but what if I 
don’t want them in my iCloud music library? Any ideas? These audio files are 
not music and so that just messes with my brain to see them in my music library 
on my phone. :) I only need to get these files onto my Mac so that I can put 
them on my victor reader stream, or into dropBox. 

Thanks,
Christina

Article: Apple on target for October MacBook Release

[Scott Granados]

Found this article on redmond pie and it seemed totally on topic to discuss.  
Includes expectations about the up coming release of the laptops including the 
end of the MacBook air 11, the 12 Inch MacBook taking the place of the 11 inch 
air, the continuation and upgrade of the MacBook air 13, and changes to the 
MacBook Pro..  The article notes the source has a hit and miss record with 
rumors, it does indicate that it matches other reports from more reliable 
sources so it seems worth reading.  I’d be interested in comments, I’m not sure 
I like all the proposed changes.
The changes include an OLED light bar (I assume in place of function 
keys), no more mag safe adapter, no more USB, and what’s being included is 
USB-C (I do like this) (Thunderbolt 3 (Apple always has to provide a little bit 
different but proprietary port that’s a little faster, just because) and the 
power button has the fingerprint Censor (I like it).
What do you all think?

Read more here.

1Password Update

[E.T.]

   The 6.3.4 update has to do with browser extensions. Before, you 
would download and install the extension. This was changed. Now, you 
would be prompted to compare a code with that shown in the browser. Simpler.


   What I encountered prompts a question. Safari showed the code and 
the dialog indicated that one was to go to 1Password and compare the 
code there. The mystery was. where was that code being displayed in 
1Password?


   Turned out it was in a popover. Invoking the Window chooser then 
took me there and I completed the task.


   It was not obvious. So is this actually typical behavior? Is this 
where one develops a habit of checking the Window chooser?

Hi,  I have used it on my mac just fine till now.  I am unable to get it to

You can also just press return which will activate the default button which is 
accept in this case.

Re: Status of the send space wizard

[David Griffith]

I  have just opened the Wizard on my Mac running Sierra and at first look all 
appears normal.  However as I did not do a clean install I did not have to log 
in again and was automatically logged into my account. I know that easily the  
most difficult part of the wizard is logging in for the first time as there is 
no typing echo. From memory I  had to try several attempts of pressing tab and 
typing in my user name and password before it finally let  me in. You can check 
a box to prevent having to repeat this though.

Having been logged in I found that by pressing option R I was taken directly to 
my remote uploaded files as normal. The other short cuts also appear to work 
and I navigated a few remote folders fine. I did not do an extensive test but 
all seemed  normal as before to me.

Re: Facetime for Apple users only?

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

No, WiFi Assist is used when you have a poor WiFi connection.  If the WiFi 
connection is poor, then the iPhone will automatically switch over to LTE or 
whatever data you have to give you the fastest connection.  Many people have 
turned it off as they found that the process was making their data levels go 
through the roof.

   Is this the same as Wifi Assist? If it is, I have that option.

   By the way, on that same area in phone settings is "announce calls". 
I have it set to never but would like to know what it is as its

Hi,

If you've set up your Continuity services where you can answer iPhone calls on 
your Mac, then any and all calls that come into your iPhone are able to be

T thought Facetime was an Apple-only service so am curious about this.

On using workflows I built on another Vac

[Brandt Steenkamp]

Hi there folks,

A friend of mine asked if there were any way to extract text from QDF documents 
on the Mac, I actually did not know, so looked at Automator and built a 
workflow that does exactly that, saved it as an app, and now don't know if my 
friend can use my workflow instead of having to build his own.

If someone can let me know, both my buddy and I would be very grateful.

Warm regards,

Brandt Steenkamp

Re: alternative free conversion tool for kindle for use with calibre

[E.T.]

   Just an update. This plugin for Calibre version 2.70 does work 
nicely once set up. True its a difficult process but once its done, 
Calibre does a nice job of removing the DRM then doing the conversion.


   If I find any more Kindle books I do not know I want badly, I may 
take a stab at a write up. (smiles)

Hi,
I mentioned a conversion tool in my last post but that one is not free,
this one is it does require calibre though but on rechecking that app it
seems to be fairly accessible, here is the link for downloading the tool
it seems to be wellmaintained:

Re: Article: Apple on target for October MacBook Release

[E.T.]

   Interesting developments to be. I know nothing about USB C but I 
usually go with the flow and so expect it probably will be an easy 
enough change to adapt to.


   The touch bar I find interesting too. We need someone to beta test 
hardware! Oh right. NDA. So much for that.


   My mid 2012 MBP still seems healthy whereas my bank account is not 
so a new Mac is not on my radar. A new iPhone has a better chance.

Found this article on redmond pie and it seemed totally on topic to discuss.  
Includes expectations about the up coming release of the laptops including the 
end of the MacBook air 11, the 12 Inch MacBook taking the place of the 11 inch 
air, the continuation and upgrade of the MacBook air 13, and changes to the 
MacBook Pro..  The article notes the source has a hit and miss record with 
rumors, it does indicate that it matches other reports from more reliable 
sources so it seems worth reading.  I’d be interested in comments, I’m not sure 
I like all the proposed changes.
The changes include an OLED light bar (I assume in place of function 
keys), no more mag safe adapter, no more USB, and what’s being included is 
USB-C (I do like this) (Thunderbolt 3 (Apple always has to provide a little bit 
different but proprietary port that’s a little faster, just because) and the 
power button has the fingerprint Censor (I like it).
What do you all think?

Attention Mark Taylor

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

Hey Mark, would you please write me off list? I wrote you a very very sad 
private message, but want to be absolutely 100% sure that you see it, as it's 
kind of urgent. Absolutely no one on list has done anything wrong. This has 
nothing at all to do  with someone's conduct or the like, I swear to God.

Actually quite the contrary. It's very very very sad news, but for now on list, 
until I get permission to say more, that's all I'm gonna say here publicly for 
now.

Chris.
