RE: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

open the music app on your phone

in the lower right corner of the app the 5th tab across the bottom is my music 
double tap on this tab
now in the upper left corner of the screen below the status line is my account 
button, library button, and playlist button, double tap on library button
now flick with one finger across the screen to you hear category button with 
the selected defalt category name. if it is not artist then double tap on this 
button and double tap on artest.
Now you should have all your music listed by artest name in a list with the 
name of the artest and number of alblums and number of songs
To play all from that artest, flick up with one finger and you will hear play, 
more, and activate, double tap on play and it will start playing all from that 
artist.
If you do not get these choices when you flick up then do the rotor to you hear 
actions and then it will work.

George,

there is no Music Button in the bottom right of the screen.  In the Bottom 
right of the screen is the Connect Tab.

Hey Alan,

You know, I very rarely use Siri to play music.  Not sure why, just habit, I 
suppose.  I'll give this a try and see what happens.  It's so frustrating 
having gotten it to work once. 
Cheers,
Donna

I don’t know what they can do on the hardware side.  This version is a pretty

Re: Apple TV-No Optical Port

2015-09-14 Thread Scott Granados
This is not how I would do it.

Since you use optical (I do as well) I would take the signal from the Apple TV 
to your TV set over HDMI which gives you the highest digital fidelity possible 
then take the optical out on the back of your TV and route that to your 
receiver.  Then anything heard on the TV will route to your surround processor. 
 Hope that helps.

Seven.1 is pretty good.  You can actually get 9.1 or even more if you go with 
some of the more high end gear.  I have a Denon receiver that decodes surround 
nicely and it’s a lot of fun to listen to.

The new Apple TV, which isn't even available to purchase yet, has dropped the 
optical audio out. So the only option is to get your audio via HDMI or send it 
to an airport express with optical audio outputs. They did add 7.1 surround 
sound if you're really into that home theater sound setup.

2.  HDMI port for connecting to either HDTV or HD capable AV receiver.

4.  Optical digital output.

Lots of cool new upgrades like the new radio chip which will make the

Hi George,

Mostly we're speaking the same language.  For me, the My Music tab is in the 
lower left, but all other steps work until I get to the More button.  When I 
tap on that, I get a whole bunch of options such as share artist, Start Radio 
station, Make available off-line,  etc, but nothing about playing all songs.  
have you updated to the latest IOS?  I'm just starting to wonder if we're 
running the same software version, especially given that you're finding the My 
Music Tab on the Right, whereas mine is on the left.
Cheers,
Donna.

Seven.1 is pretty good.  You can actually get 9.1 or even more if you go with 
some of the more high end gear.  I have a Denon receiver that decodes surround

Only major thing would be battery life. Keep all those features rolling 
for a week on a charge would be nice. Probably some new even faster 
networks will be coming down the pipe but, yes, they seem to have

Re: Apple TV-No Optical Port

Yup. Here's one for $37:

Output is both RCA stereo and optical digital.

The new Apple TV, which isn't even available to purchase yet, has 
dropped the optical audio out. So the only option is to get your 
audio via HDMI or send it to an airport express with optical audio 
outputs. They did add 7.1 surround sound if you're really into that 
home theater sound setup.

Hello,

I have a question. I know that there are 3.5 mm jack to blue tooth 
adaptors, which I learned a while back. Will this work with the 
new Apple TV if one needed to use an optical cable to rout the 
Apple TV through their receiver? This may be an option for those 
who are not in the market or can’t afford a new blue tooth 
receiver along with all the new iDevices revealed last Wednesday. 
Input on this would be appreciated.


Thanks in advance.

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
Aside from a breakthrough and battery technology, which has already been 
mentioned and is not under apples control I don't guess, there is one thing I 
would love to see Apple do with its phone. That is, do like HTC does and put 
decent speakers on the phone. I'm not expecting a home theater experience on my 
phone. But my husband has an HTC, and the sound that comes from that phone is 
really good for a phone. Apple has never put really good speakers in any of its 
tablets or phones. That is a place where they could stand some major 
improvement.

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Scott Granados
I have no idea why people want these bulky internal speakers.  It’s an 
interesting request but to me that seems like a waste of space for no gain.  If 
I want to listen to sound on my phone I use a bluetooth speaker or headset or 
the included headphones not the internal speaker.  Wouldn’t a good quality 
sound dock make more sense?  What’s the use case here that makes you want 
improved audio natively?

Good response btw.

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
I've always wondered if the GPS drain was due to getting the coordinates 
all the time or the constant downloading of data over the cellular 
internet connection. I guess if there is a GPS app with all the maps 
included (would be quite large) that would be a good test. I think 
Navigon was one that had the maps baked into the app.

On 9/14/15 10:07 AM, Brent Harding wrote:
I agree. It seems that next to video streaming, location services are 
the biggest culprit of battery drain. Since we don't know for sure, 
it's hard to say if Seeing Eye is more of a drain than it could be if 
maps were in local storage as opposed to maintaining a constant 
connection to their servers. I imagine some of that battery drain can 
be decreased through things they can do in software, but I thought I 
heard that the GPS in phones is a more power hungry way of doing it 
than the little GPS receivers people used with their note takers. They 
might be already at a point where we need some kind of breakthrough in 
batteries to increase the time we get by increasing the power without 
changing the size.

Only major thing would be battery life. Keep all those features rolling

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Brent Harding
I agree. It seems that next to video streaming, location services are the 
biggest culprit of battery drain. Since we don't know for sure, it's hard to 
say if Seeing Eye is more of a drain than it could be if maps were in local 
storage as opposed to maintaining a constant connection to their servers. I 
imagine some of that battery drain can be decreased through things they can 
do in software, but I thought I heard that the GPS in phones is a more power 
hungry way of doing it than the little GPS receivers people used with their 
note takers. They might be already at a point where we need some kind of 
breakthrough in batteries to increase the time we get by increasing the 
power without changing the size.

Only major thing would be battery life. Keep all those features rolling
for a week on a charge would be nice. Probably some new even faster

I've always wondered if the GPS drain was due to getting the coordinates 
all the time or the constant downloading of data over the cellular 
internet connection. I guess if there is a GPS app with all the maps 
included (would be quite large) that would be a good test. I think 
Navigon was one that had the maps baked into the app.

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Scott Granados
I just think it’s an interesting tradeoff of space.  I’d much rather have 
faster processing or faster networking than speakers but I only use the 
internal speaker for quick checks of the phone or alerting / alarms that sort 
of thing.  I use the headset or a jawbone jam box almost all the time much more 
the headset.

I find it interesting though the interesting uses that others have and the 
different priorities in features so there’s no right answer and I was just 
curious your motivation.

I would like to see them ad more haptic feedback when you slide your
finger around the home screen or in apps. I am thinking of the
vibrations that you get on Android when your finger goes across icons
on the home screen. From what was said last week, it sounds like you
get some haptic feedback on the 6S after activating something on the
screen, but it would be good to see them take this further. I can see
how this could benefit the blind, the deaf blind or the deaf. I think
Apple will release new phones each year since the iPhone is a large
majority of their business and profit.

Or better and more innovative still would be to make icons, buttons and keys

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
Unless there is some reason for a tactile display other than just for us, I 
don't see them doing it. It would have to be very cheap to do, or there's no 
use case for it. There aren't enough of us. But maybe with software?

Other than "because they can", my use case is simply that I don't necessarily 
want to haul around a Bluetooth speaker or use headsets all the time. I don't 
use headsets for anything but really serious music listening, or when I am out 
and about, in public, and using the speaker would be discourteous in the 
extreme. I used them for my work for 28 years. I do own an excellent pair, and 
I certainly don't expect any phone to come close to the sound of those phones.  
However, when just listening to the phone, casually, I would love decent sound. 
And HTC has done it for two years now. My husbands phone is certainly not huge 
by today's standards. I don't have a 6S plus. But I have held one in my hand, a 
6S that is, and I'm thinking that his phone is  smaller than the 6S.

They'd just have to have a way for a single vibration thing to a point on 
screen. It'd vibrate at different speeds to show different textures, so that 
people could feel buttons, game controls and such.

   Better than any of this would be to build a technology that pairs 
with our brains. Of course that would be dangerous so safeguards would 
need to be built in to protect the masses from their own tomfoolery. But 
it could save having to use hardware.

2015-09-14 Thread Laura Bratton
Hi All,
I use the Night Owl app for Twitter. How do I click on a link that someone has 
posted in their twitter post? When I am in the table going through all of the 
most recent post and want to go to a link that someone has provided, I cannot 
figure out how to do this. So any help would be great!
Thank you,
laura

This may help a lot, but try going through the menues and seeing what VoiceOver 
says after the command. For example, it may say "follow user, f" or something 
like that. But, for viewing links, when focus is on the tweet with the link, 
press l. If this doesn't work, see which key to press by the menues.

Well, if we want to get Star Trek he, how about making the phone out of 
transparent aluminum? Seriously, what they might be able to do it some point is 
come up with material that is so good that you wouldn't need a case for your 
phone anymore.

So, that’s a little way off yet but yes, I would sign up for that.:)

Probably would be a physical plug at first to get enough bandwidth to be worth 
while and then you’d need to solve the bandwidth from the phone to the network 
and the network over all problem but yes, that would be pretty damn cool. 
That’s when we have to start worrying about agent Smith though.:)

RE: Anyone know how to play all songs by an artist on an iPod or iPhone?

2015-09-14 Thread Alan Lemly
Donna,

I understand but give Siri a try. The iPhone seems to have multiple ways to
accomplish the same task and you might be surprised at how handy Siri can be
to play music provided it works like you want it to.

Let us know your results and good luck.

Hey Alan,

You know, I very rarely use Siri to play music.  Not sure why, just habit, I
suppose.  I'll give this a try and see what happens.  It's so frustrating
having gotten it to work once.

I'm still using ios 8.3 so my music app has not been affected by the changes
they brought in to support apple music. I'd be curious how Siri would handle
a request to play tracks by artist when both owned and streamed music are
available on the same device.

Re: iPhone 6S?

Yes, and a recent report I read stated a very nice accidental improvement in 
battery technology. We should see this improvement next year. It reportedly 
will double battery life.

Re: iPhone 6S?

Nope. The feedback needed to show braille and other tactile things on the 
iPhone are hardware too. Either you can vibrate a moder at every pixel to show 
braille, or you can make the metal rise a little and form dots, both of which 
Apple has patents on.

OK, how about this.  I presume that you don't have a numpad do you?  If you 
do, then you can enable mouse keys, then once done, your numpad 5 becomes 
the mouse clicker, so you could then essentially hit ctrl+numpad 5.  Really 
that's the only other way I know of.  There might be an unassigned command 
that you could map to a keyboard commander, but I'm thinking that the 
vo+shift+M is probably going to be as close as you're gonna get, short of 
what you're doing already, or using mouse keys.

Sorry to not be of any more help.  Shruggs.

This is not an actual click of the mouse pointer. yes, it does bring up the 
contextual menu in some instances. I need the mouse pointer to actually 
click, but I need the “right click” Sometimes the vo command to bring up the 
contextual menu does not work. I do try the trick of routing the mouse 
pointer to the voiceOver cursor and then holding down the control key and 
than very carefully trying to click the track pad but sometimes I am not so 
accurate and move the mouse pointer by accident :(

Re: TVOS Accessibility

Hi Scott.

Freeview TV is a free TV service here in the UK.  As far as I know, you get a 
Freeview box built into the TV and you put a TV view card in it.  It's a bit 
like cable but you get all free channels on it.  Not used it myself yet as I 
have no TV yet.

Thanks.

Kawal.

No, the battery drain is primarily from the GPS signal being so weak. The power

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread David Chittenden
Well, a three-in-one camera for start. This is one of the companies Apple 
purchased earlier this year. The new camera will allow multiple focusing on one 
image, as well as a few other tweaks. Should be very good for improved OCR and 
improved image recoqnition.

Better speaker technology is in the works according to some recent Apple 
pattents. Quite possibly this will lead to better sound and sound-stage 
separation from tiny speakers in future models (like the new iPad Pro, but in a 
smaller package.

Sensors to detect hand / body gestures. This is something Apple is reportedly 
researching.

Technology to cause the touchscreen to simulate various tactile feelinqs. Thus 
far, bubbles to shallow holes can be quite effectively generated on the flat 
touchscreen.

How's that for a few advances?

That is another pattent Apple received earlier this year. Apparently, they

Water proof, dust and shock proof iPhone. On a friend’s wish list, still have 
A-GPS like now, but also with  stand alone GPS i.e. not A-GPS like now. If you 
turn off wi-fi and mobile network, you still get the position from for example 
Blind Square. So, both A-GPS and stand alone GPS. 

Take care

The android phones with this feature actually vibrate the entire phone when the 
button is touched. For the sighted person, this haptically translates into the 
perception that a physical button has ben pressed. For a blind person (myself), 
the perception was that the phone shook when I touched the screen.

2015-09-14 Thread Brent Harding
I imagine with all the different stuff going on in the phone, the GPS signal 
is pretty weak, and it has to try harder than dedicated GPS devices do. One 
would think that using the approved external bluetooth receivers that have 
their own battery might help some, but I think Apple still combines that 
with the phone's internal sense of the location.

No, the battery drain is primarily from the GPS signal being so weak. The 
power drain from the mobile connection is quite minor in comparison. I have 
almost equivalent battery drain whether I use unboard maps from TomTom, or 
internet based maps from AppleMaps or GoogleMaps.

I've always wondered if the GPS drain was due to getting the coordinates

was one that had the maps baked into the app.

servers. I imagine some of that battery drain can be decreased through 
things they can do in software, but I thought I heard that the GPS in 
phones is a more power hungry way of doing it than the little GPS 
receivers people used with their note takers. They might be already at a 
point where we need some kind of breakthrough in batteries to increase 
the time we get by increasing the power without changing the size.

Only major thing would be battery life. Keep all those features rolling

I'd like to see the phone vibrate when you turn it on a bit like the old Nokias 
or was it the HTC Window phones, those of you who had Windows Mobile the 6.1 
did they vibrate?  I can't remember as my HTC Windows phone died just as I 
stopped beta testing for Code Factory.  God so long ago.

Editing an flv file

2015-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
Hello all,

I am sorry for the cross posting. But I am writing this on behalf of a friend 
who is really a Windows user, but who is looking for a way to edit FLV files. 
And he said he was open to the possibility of doing it on a Mac. So, is there a 
way to do this on a mac using voice over?

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
Well, there has been speculation in the tech press the last couple of years 
about getting rid of the home button. If it is true that they don't need it for 
touch ID or for accessing multitasking, why have it? The obvious answer as far 
as we are concerned, is that we use it for triple click home. And so do some 
other folks with disabilities. But if that is the only reason for the home 
button, I predict it's gone. Why keep it question they could have more screen 
real estate if they got rid of it.

Well, there has been speculation in the tech press the last couple of years 
about getting rid of the home button. If it is true that they don't need it for 
touch ID or for accessing multitasking, why have it? The obvious answer as far 
as we are concerned, is that we use it for triple click home. And so do some 
other folks with disabilities. But if that is the only reason for the home 
button, I predict it's gone. Why keep it question they could have more screen 
real estate if they got rid of it.

Re: question regarding Night Owl

2015-09-14 Thread Shawn Krasniuk
Hi guys. One thing that should be noted is if you have quicknav on, Voiceover 
won't for some reason focus on the tweet that you want to either open links or 
reply to that one tweet. Turning off quicknav will solve the problem. I don't 
know how many times I've made the mistake of leaving quicknav on and getting 
frustrated as to why I can't reply or retweet or whatever but turning quicknav 
off solves this issue. Not sure if it's a Voiceover bug or a bug in Night Owl 
itself but there's your work around. And before someone says that I can't say 
that it's a bug with Voiceover since I'm running the beta of El Capitan, I've 
had this bug in Yosemite so it existed even before El Capitan.

Re: right mouse click

2015-09-14 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
Lowering the tracking speed on the trackpad might also make it less 
susceptible to moving off target when trying to do a control-click. You 
can set that in the trackpad preferences.

OK, how about this.  I presume that you don't have a numpad do you?  If you
do, then you can enable mouse keys, then once done, your numpad 5 becomes
the mouse clicker, so you could then essentially hit ctrl+numpad 5.  Really
that's the only other way I know of.  There might be an unassigned command
that you could map to a keyboard commander, but I'm thinking that the
vo+shift+M is probably going to be as close as you're gonna get, short of
what you're doing already, or using mouse keys.

Sorry to not be of any more help.  Shruggs.

This is not an actual click of the mouse pointer. yes, it does bring up the

click, but I need the “right click” Sometimes the vo command to bring up the

pointer to the voiceOver cursor and then holding down the control key and
than very carefully trying to click the track pad but sometimes I am not so
accurate and move the mouse pointer by accident :(

Re: urgent! Thorough and Good back up programs

2015-09-14 Thread Sabahattin Gucukoglu
Look, to be honest, whatever you do now is risky.

I can help you reinstate a protective MBR, so you can boot back up OS X and 
possibly use BootCamp assistant to blow away your Windows partition so you can 
re-enlarge the OS X partition.  Perhaps you can do it without using Terminal, 
if you try it.  I can’t guarantee that things will work beyond that point, 
though.  In particular, Windows will probably be buggered permanently, because 
with a protective MBR in place Windows won’t be able to boot on anything but 
the newest of Macs.

As I’ve said before, I really think a complete wipe and reinstall will be good 
for you.  Take a backup, do a wipe and reinstall of the OS, then restore your 
backup.  This is clean, simple, and certain.  You’ll get all of your space 
back, and lose Windows.  The next time you install Windows, read the fine 
manual provided with BootCamp, so you know what to expect during the partition 
step.

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread David Chittenden
Umm, the concept of GPS is backward. The iPhone sends the GPS coordinates to 
the GPS solution, such as AppleMaps, GoogleMaps, BlindSquare, Nivigon, TomTom, 
Etc, and the GPS location software then determines where the device is located.

The accuracy of just the satelites is significantly lower than with satelites 
supplemented by mobile tower triangulation and wifi information.

The only differences between maps on device and maps on internet are: device 
maps are completely private, internet maps are most up-to-date, maps on 
internet are significantly less expensive, maps on internet require data 
connection, maps on device require user updating,.

Joint cursor movement

2015-09-14 Thread -


The pointer at the current position when keying around in an
application or menu etc., I call the system cursor.

Does anyone know if it is possible to lock the system and mouse
cursors so they move jointly when keying around?

Re: question regarding Night Owl

2015-09-14 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

Oh! easy!

Absolutely.

So, provided you're on the tweet, and are interacting with the table, simply 
press the letter l, as in link.  Not command l or anything.  Literally just 
the letter l by itself.

Hi All,
I use the Night Owl app for Twitter. How do I click on a link that someone 
has posted in their twitter post? When I am in the table going through all 
of the most recent post and want to go to a link that someone has provided, 
I cannot figure out how to do this. So any help would be great!

right mouse click

Hello,

How do I perform an actual right mouse click to bring up the contextual menu 
via the keyboard? I know about VO plus shift Plus spacebar to perform an actual 
mouse click but I can’t figure out how to do a right mouse click via the 
keyboard.

Thanks,

Re: right mouse click

2015-09-14 Thread Christina C.
This is not an actual click of the mouse pointer. yes, it does bring up the 
contextual menu in some instances. I need the mouse pointer to actually click, 
but I need the “right click” Sometimes the vo command to bring up the 
contextual menu does not work. I do try the trick of routing the mouse pointer 
to the voiceOver cursor and then holding down the control key and than very 
carefully trying to click the track pad but sometimes I am not so accurate and 
move the mouse pointer by accident :(

Hello Christina,

On a Mac, the contextual menu is obtained with a Control-Click. So you bring 
the mouse, hold down the Control key and click the trackpad.

Re: question regarding Night Owl

2015-09-14 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Another little tip is, Shift L, I think it is, will open your default 
browser in the background.  Meaning, YoruFukurou will stay in the foreground 
focus, but Safari or whatever will open the link in the background.  Then 
you would command+tab over to Safari when ready.  This is really nice if you 
don't want to pop your focus away from YoruFukurou just quite yet.


So again in summary:

L while on the tweet will open the link in the foreground focus, and shift+L 
will open it in the background.


Please note, I normally don't use shift+L so I might have this command 
slightly wrong.  I'm almost 98% sure it was shift+L though.  If not, then 
look in your menu bar under the tweet menu.  It should be in there with its 
associated shortcut key.


Chris.

This may help a lot, but try going through the menues and seeing what 
VoiceOver says after the command. For example, it may say "follow user, f" 
or something like that. But, for viewing links, when focus is on the tweet 
with the link, press l. If this doesn't work, see which key to press by the 
menues.

Re: Joint cursor movement

2015-09-14 Thread erik burggraaf
To accomplish this:
press control option f8 to open the voiceover utility.
press N for navigation.
Tab to Voiceover cursor follows keyboard focus and check it.
Tab to mouse cursor and set it to follows voiceover cursor.

You're done.

Actually, I like all of these options set.  Never do I ever want to interact 
with the voiceover cursor alone, so I just tie them all together.

Best,

Old-time Radio listservs

2015-09-14 Thread Tim Emmons
guys, I have a question and I hope everybody doesn’t mind. I apologize for the 
cross-posting and I know that for some of these lists this is going to be way 
off topic but I wanted to ask and if you want to take clutter off the lists, 
please, email or contact me privately off the list so as to avoid clutter and 
off topic stuff that might ensue. I have rediscovered and fallen in love again, 
with old-time radio. I love listening and finding new programs and when Bard 
went down this is what kept me entertained for hours on top of course, of 
everything else, chasing a two-year old, (my son) and other numerous things. 
Lol. But, I wanted to know if there might be a list or lists out there devoted 
to Old-time Radio, programs, and all that type of thing. I wasn’t sure where to 
look but I’m curious. If anyone can let me know, that would be awesome or point 
me in the direction that would be great. I started using Vintage Radio, an app 
in the App store, and I did their yearly subscription of $19.99 for their whole 
catalog which is huge but I can’t ever get enough of this stuff. Lol. I was a 
member of a list a long long time ago, but life and things in general at the 
time had gotten in the way of getting the cDS back but I don’t know that the 
mp3 CdS make their rounds like they did back in the day, but I’m curious. 
Thanks again guys and if you know of anywhere to point me in the direction 
please let me know. Thanks again and again sorry for the off topic cross posts 
on some places but just trying to get an idea here. Thanks again and take care.

Re: right mouse click

2015-09-14 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, how about this.  I presume that you don't have a numpad do you?  If you 
do, then you can enable mouse keys, then once done, your numpad 5 becomes 
the mouse clicker, so you could then essentially hit ctrl+numpad 5.  Really 
that's the only other way I know of.  There might be an unassigned command 
that you could map to a keyboard commander, but I'm thinking that the 
vo+shift+M is probably going to be as close as you're gonna get, short of 
what you're doing already, or using mouse keys.


Sorry to not be of any more help.  Shruggs.

Re: iPhone 6S?

2015-09-14 Thread Brent Harding
I think Apple has improved the speaker considerably as compared to the 4S up 
to the 6. I imagine that the HTC phones are probably considerably thicker 
though. I think it might be at a point where the only way to increase the 
quality of the speaker is to make it physically bigger in size. I know that 
I needed to turn it down as compared to the volume setting that restored 
from the backup of the old 4S when I got my 6.

Other than "because they can", my use case is simply that I don't 
necessarily want to haul around a Bluetooth speaker or use headsets all the 
time. I don't use headsets for anything but really serious music listening, 
or when I am out and about, in public, and using the speaker would be 
discourteous in the extreme. I used them for my work for 28 years. I do own 
an excellent pair, and I certainly don't expect any phone to come close to 
the sound of those phones.  However, when just listening to the phone, 
casually, I would love decent sound. And HTC has done it for two years now. 
My husbands phone is certainly not huge by today's standards. I don't have a 
6S plus. But I have held one in my hand, a 6S that is, and I'm thinking that 
his phone is  smaller than the 6S.

Android tends to do those short vibrations at times when you flick through

something like this would hit the iPads first though. I heard on some tech

one vibrating motor only deep inside the phone.  I’d be open to seeing it 
demonstrated though if someone came up with such a thing.

They'd just have to have a way for a single vibration thing to a point on 
screen. It'd vibrate at different speeds to show different textures, so 
that people could feel buttons, game controls and such.

Other than "because they can", my use case is simply that I don't 
necessarily want to haul around a Bluetooth speaker or use headsets all 
the time. I don't use headsets for anything but really serious music 
listening, or when I am out and about, in public, and using the speaker 
would be discourteous in the extreme. I used them for my work for 28 
years. I do own an excellent pair, and I certainly don't expect any 
phone to come close to the sound of those phones.  However, when just 
listening to the phone, casually, I would love decent sound. And HTC 
has done it for two years now. My husbands phone is certainly not huge 
by today's standards. I don't have a 6S plus. But I have held one in my 
hand, a 6S that is, and I'm thinking that his phone is  smaller than 
the 6S.

I have no idea why people want these bulky internal speakers.  It’s an 
interesting request but to me that seems like a waste of space for no 
gain.  If I want to listen to sound on my phone I use a bluetooth 
speaker or headset or the included headphones not the internal 
speaker.  Wouldn’t a good quality sound dock make more sense?  What’s 
the use case here that makes you want improved audio natively?


Good response btw.

Aside from a breakthrough and battery technology, which has already 
been mentioned and is not under apples control I don't guess, there 
is one thing I would love to see Apple do with its phone. That is, do 
like HTC does and put decent speakers on the phone. I'm not expecting 
a home theater experience on my phone. But my husband has an HTC, and 
the sound that comes from that phone is really good for a phone. 
Apple has never put really good speakers in any of its tablets or 
phones. That is a place where they could stand some major 
improvement.

I’m sure they will I’m just trying to think what they will add.  It’s 
not like I can think of new features the phone needs.:)  There will 
always be faster processors ok there’s one, faster networking, there’s 
2, then it thins out quick.  What would I add that the phone needs 
that it doesn’t have?  Not much I can think of.

Remember this device generated $102 billion last quarter.

I don’t know what they can do on the hardware side.  This version 
is a pretty complete device.  The software has possibilities but 
you don’t need to sell new hardware for that.

Take care

I really don’t see what they will add after this.  The phone has 
every thing now.  A really solid radio finally that works on all 
the networks fully, a nice high end camera, fast 64 bit

Hello,

How do I perform an actual right mouse click to bring up the contextual menu 
via the keyboard? I know about VO plus shift Plus spacebar to perform an 
actual mouse click but I can’t figure out how to do a right mouse click via 
the keyboard.


Thanks,
Christina
