Hi there,
I'm hoping someone might have a good answer for me.
If you recall, I emailed mentioning that there had been a change regarding
my own personal contact information in my contacts list on my IPhone.
Well, when I was using Siri, I noticed it no longer called me by name and
Hello Jim and all:
Hopefully you and your phone have not had a disagreement recently … maybe you
did not take out the trash … :).
No worries. I am presuming that you are using IOS 7.0? the my number entry no
longer appears at the top of the contact list … so you are good there.
If you go
Thanks, Patrick.
And, do you have any answer regarding the questions I asked about my
personal contact information no longer displaying my Facebook photo the way
it used to do?
And yes, I'm using IOS 7.02 or whatever the latest version is.

Hi Guys,
I just updated my iPad 3 to iOS 7. Now I'm not able to use hq voices. Even the
standard voice is just the compact version. Is it again not possible to use the
hq voices on iPads? Or is it just me doing something wrongly?
Thansk and all the best

I like the idea about the hovercam, but there are a few things that you need to

Hello,
There's an Android app called Point Finder that allows the user to mark and
name a specific point using GPS. For example, you can mark the intersection
of two sidewalks and the app will guide you back to that point. I seem to

For instance, it can announce intersections, alert you within a radius (such as

relative to you as you try to find it, and more. It can even

Hi, all! This is totally off the topic and has nothing to do with Macs or
iPhones and stuff, but I figure if you use VoiceOver, you're probably visually
impaired like me, or know someone who is, and I'm not sure who else to ask
about this, but I'm wondering if any of you know anything about

I was playing with a bluetooth headset today. Now, I can hear system sounds
through my regular speakers, but Voiceover is totally silent. What did I do,
and more importantly, how do I fix it? The headset is off, so why would vo not
return to my speakers if system sounds have? Thanks.
Hi,
press FN option f12 and press VO right arrow twice, and press VO space. Now,

• VO-m to go up to the Apple menu.
• Down arrow once to open the menu and press s y to go to System Prefs.
• Press tab once.

The rest should work like Ricardo mentioned:

How do those 2 differ? I use google maps, which I love for the most part, but
my biggest disappointments are that it doesn't access your contacts, and from
what I've noticed anyhow, it doesn't actually tell you whether or not you've
