When I first set my sleep schedule, I had in 
mind when I wanted to go to bed, and when I 
wanted to get up the next morning. So, when I 
thought about setting the schedule for Saturday 
night, I treated Sunday morning as being 
contingent on Saturday night. I sleep in on 
Sundays, so was more than a little surprised 
when my alarm went off at 6:30. 
â˜Ã‚¹Ã¯Â¸  So, rather than thinking 
about when you want to go to bed, and when you 
want to wake up the next morning, think about 
when you want to wake up on a given day, and 
when you want to go to bed that same night.

Re: keyboard commands on a Mac

2020-09-28 Thread Jonathan Cohn
You could also set up a keyboard commander for turning on quicknav. I don’t 
have time right now to give detailed instructions, but if you  interested reply 
back with a key. Note in Catalina and higher, vo-Q toggles quicknav qwerty 
controls. In my default configuration, option Q does not mapped to anything, so 
that is probably a good keystroke to assign to toggle QuickNav.

Re: touch I.D. and pass code

2020-09-28 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Are you able to rea your messages from the lock screen? Not sure how far you 
are getting and there are some security settings that might help.
If you hear the notification, but the lock screen does not display the message 
then going into notification settings you should be able to set up allow 
notifications on lock screen. I can’t remember if this is a universal setting 
or a per app setting, and it mostly effects  phones with face recognition. If 
you are seeing the message notification, you can probably reply to it from the 
lock screen, I ssswipe through the actions, and then there is one I can double 
tap that allows a quick reply. (Siri can  also reply to text messages, but on 
my wifes iPhone it says you  must first unlock while for me, I can just say 
reply to Laurie and it asks what I want to say. Also, if you just double tap on 
the message notification, then lightly touch the fingerprint sensor you should 
go into the messages app.

Good  for you! I  just Haven't come Across 
Reviews LikeThat about  Apple's Series6 ApplWatch 
& its Built IN SleepTracker. Guess the 
Reviews  I'm seeing are ALL Wrong about 
that.  I'll Keep Lookin' EvenThough I don't 
Plan  ON purchasing a  Series6 AppleWatch, as My 
Series5 AppleWatch NikeEdition is just Fine, but 
I  did recently Purchase  a  Samsung 
GalaxyWatch3, & its SleepTrackin' gets More 
Positive Reviews than Apple's SleepTracker on its Series6 AppleWatch.


JustWonderin:
Are you Speakin'From Experience, Donna? Meanin': 
Do you have  a  AppleWatch Series6?

When I first set my sleep schedule, I had in 
mind when I wanted to go to bed, and when I 
wanted to get up the next morning. So, when I 
thought about setting the schedule for Saturday 
night, I treated Sunday morning as being 
contingent on Saturday night. I sleep in on 
Sundays, so was more than a little surprised 
when my alarm went off at 6:30. â˜Â¹Ã¯Â¸  So, 
rather than thinking about when you want to go 
to bed, and when you want to wake up the next 
morning, think about when you want to wake up 
on a given day, and when you want to go to bed that same night.

I believe it uses motion and heart rate. What are you hoping for? Diodes that 
plug into your brain to track your brain waves? Lacking that, it seems to do a 
pretty good job. When I review my sleep data, it seems reasonably accurate. 
That's not to say it isn't off by a minute or few, but the numbers I see fit 
what I would expect, based on time in bed, time awake, etc.

Then you can’t go and do exercise in the morning as your battery will have run 
out with sleep tracking I suppose.  Is that your experience Donna?

 The one thing I would add to this is that you need to treat each day 
 separately. When I first set my sleep schedule, I had in mind when I 
 wanted to go to bed, and when I wanted to get up the next morning. So, 
 when I thought about setting the schedule for Saturday night, I treated 
 Sunday morning as being contingent on Saturday night. I sleep in on 
 Sundays, so was more than a little surprised when my alarm went off at 
 6:30. ☹️ So, rather than thinking about when you want to go to bed, and 
 when you want to wake up the next morning, think about when you want to 
 wake up on a given day, and when you want to go to bed that same night.

go to terminal /console under applications /utilities in finder
type ds, see how much space you have

type 'top' see which apps are running how much ram they are using , remove 
the apps you no longer use

type 'ps -aux' to see the full path of the applications currently running, 
see any that not know what they are, look them up on gole and remove them 
if no longer needed

check your starup entries removed only requried , under settings  -> 
user/userggroups,  click on 'login items' uncheck those you don't need , it 
wont install it just wont open at login/startuup you can alway recheck

also go to activity monitor in applications/utilites and see if there
any errors listed. Delete apps that causing error that yuu no longer need

turn off cloud sync to make sure is not the size of date transfer slowing 
machine, limit to only critical info ,although wount save bank and health 
records on cloud, better an extrnal hardrive indepent of os and vendor

remove apps you dont need use  'disk utility' in applications/utility' and 
display

Yes, you do. It uses motion to track you, so if you don't wear the watch, it 
can't.

 How to use Sleep Mode and tracking in iOS 14 & watchOS 7
 A key update to both iOS 14 and watchOS 7 is the introduction of
 sleep-related features, including sleep tracking, a Sleep Mode, and Wind
 Down. Here's how to take advantage of the features to get a good night's
 rest. 
 
 Sleep tracking isn't entirely a new concept to Apple's ecosystem, as the
 iPhone's has provided some of that functionality for a few years. Users
 could set a time to go to sleep, receive a reminder on their Apple Watch
 when they should consider going to bed to wake up on time after a desired
 number of hours of sleep, and then a log is kept of how much sleep the user
 had over time. 
 
 With the introduction of iOS 14 and watchOS 7, Apple has improved the
 feature and added new elements, all in a bid to get the user to have all 
 the
 sleep they need. This is done by a combination of notifications, 
 scheduling,
 automation, and tracking the user as they sleep. 
 Sleep Schedule
 
 There are multiple elements to setting up the entire Sleep ecosystem of
 features, but it all starts off with setting up a schedule. 
 
 How to enable a sleep schedule in iOS 14
 .  Open the Health app. 
 .  Tap Browse then Sleep. 
 .  Tap Sleep Schedule under Your Schedule. 
 .  Tap the toggle next to Sleep Schedule.
 
 It is relatively simple to enable the Sleep Schedule in the Health app in
 iOS 14
 How to set a sleep goal in iOS 14
 .  Open the Health app, Browse, and tap Sleep. 
 .  Tap Full Schedule & Options. 
 .  Tap Sleep Goal under Additional Details
 .  Enter your desired amount of sleep, then tap Sleep Goal once again.
 
 How to set a sleep goal in watchOS 7
 .  Open the Sleep App. 
 .  Tap Full Schedule. 
 .  Tap Sleep Goal.
 .  Use the plus and minus buttons to change the goal length. 
 .  Tap Sleep Goal at the top of the screen.
 
 How to set tonight's sleep schedule in iOS 14
 .  Open the Health app, Browse, and tap Sleep. 
 .  Under Your Schedule, tap Edit. 
 .  Move the curved slider to set your ideal Bedtime and Wake Up times.
 .  If the curved slider is orange, this indicates there isn't enough
 sleep on the schedule to complete your sleep goal, so you need to change 
 the
 times again. 
 .  Tap Done.
 
 How to set tonight's sleep schedule in watchOS 7
 .  Open the Sleep App. 
 .  Tap the top schedule, under the title Next. 
 .  In turn, tap the Wake Up time and BedTime and adjust the figures
 using the Digital Crown, followed by Set. 
 .  You can change options on the screen relating to whether an alarm
 will sound and if Sound and Haptics will be enabled. 
 .  Tap Edit Schedule at the top of the screen.
 
 Setting up schedules in Sleep on the Apple Watch is also quite easy to do. 
 The above only applies to a single night's sleep. The system also includes
 the ability to configure an entire repeatable sleep schedule that spans
 across an entire week. 
 How to set a weekly sleep schedule in iOS 14
 .  Open the Health app, Browse, and tap Sleep. 
 .  Tap Full Schedule & Options. 
 .  Tap Edit under any existing schedule you want to change, or Add
 Schedule for Other Days. 
 .  Move the curved slider to set your ideal Bedtime and Wake Up times.
 Bear in mind that if the slider is

really slow Mac Mini

2020-09-28 Thread Lorie McCloud
some update has really slowed my Mac Mini down. I don't know what it was but I 
restarted in order to install something and now my Mac is really dragging. 
anybody else having problems like this? I'm running Mojave still but I'm 
planning to upgrade to Big Sir sometime in the near future.

thanks.

Hi all,

Twice in the last four days the battery level on my watch has plummeted very 
quickly down to the 10% level. Then, when I plug it in to charge, it charges 
very slowly. The only way to stop the problem seems to be to power the watch

Re: Older iOS Devices Disenfranchised by VO in iOS 14

2020-09-28 Thread Mary Otten
I had high hopes for this feature, and so when I got it on my iPhone 10 R, I 
activated it for an app that used to be lovely and accessible and turn totally 
useless with lots of things that just said button with no labor. And voiceover 
didn’t do anything. The app is in Russian, but I have a Russian voice on my 
phone, and it reads text just fine. So, it didn’t work well at all. That’s the 
only one I have that has major accessibility issues. And it was a bust. I’ve 
certainly seen others that weren’t accessible, but I just deleted them.
I kind of wonder for the longer-term prospect, whether or not they are going to 
be able to make some of the stuff on their game service accessible. I’m not a 
gamer much, but I know plenty of blind people who are and who would do it more 
if there were more accessible games. Plus it would make more money for Apple, 
which is their goal of course.
