Thinking of Falling Back To Yosemite

Hi guys. Well, I think you'll be shocked to hear this, so grab a chair because you may faint after hearing this. Normally, I'm the type of person that's against going back to a previous operating system, but in this case, I'm gonna have to change my tune. Just recently I was in Safari searching

ECHR Rules "Safe Harbour" Invalid

Hi, and apologies to all for the mostly off-topic post. This is mostly of interest to Europeans, but the ECHR (European Court of Human Rights) recently ruled that the 2000 “Safe Harbour” provisions, which allow US companies on US soil to store data on behalf of Europeans, are invalid. This is

Gradual Adjustment of Sliders in iOS

Hi guys, Recently I have had need to adjust sliders in iOS more gradually than at 10% increments. Specifically, VoiceOver’s rate adjustment. Every time I have needed to change those, I have had to use the double-tap-and-hold gesture, with infuriatingly imprecise results. It takes me several

I must be going crazy! Two things I cannot find.

First off, on my IPhone, what ever happened to the Urban Spoon app? Is it gone? I don't see it anywhere in the app store. If it's gone, can you all suggest something which would be comparable? Secondly, I very well may have misheard, but I thought I'd heard about 2 or 3 people say that in

Re: I must be going crazy! Two things I cannot find.

No new voices. Frankly, I wish Apple would let us have the Siri voices for the Mac. I did notice some folks asking if there are new voices and the answer is no. As to your other point, sorry, can't help. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray, Still a very happy Mac, Verizon Wireless

Re: I must be going crazy! Two things I cannot find.

Not sure of the details but I think urban spoon is now called Zomato. You can google it if you want more info. I didn’t use urban spoon so I really don’t know anything. I just caught wind of the change from word of mouth. :) Christina > On Oct 11, 2015, at 8:39 AM, Christopher-Mark Gilland

Re: Gradual Adjustment of Sliders in iOS

The annoying thing is that sliders can be made to go at any increment the developer wants when adjusted by an accessibility technology like VoiceOver. In other words, Apple could make that slider move by much smaller increments. They could even make a three-finger swipe move by different

Re: AT launches WiFi calling

Well, if it’s anything like over here, it still suffers from the basic problem that you don’t pay any less for using Wi-Fi. So, unless your carrier has committed to doing VoLTE, Wi-Fi calling is basically a subsidy for ineptitude. I don’t use it, accordingly. I completely understand if some

Nisus, Word, or pages?

Hello, I would love some opinions about Word Processing on the Mac with Voice Over. I seem to remember hearing great stuff about Nisus some time back. I looked it up in the Mac app store and noticed it hasn’t been updated since 2013. I also have seem some recent vague discussion on Office 365

It's a good substitute for cell boosters when you are in the kind of building where the reception isn't so good, but you have good high speed internet available. Now that Sprint has this, I don't have so many problems with broken up calls any more, so it gives the carriers more coverage. -
