Re: From Mark to the List, Just a General Apple Accessibility Gravity Check-in

2022-08-16 Thread Karen Lewellen

Hi there,
this is a fine post, but I have to point out, based on my current 
situation,  that speaking personally starting as a brand new user seems 
less  effortless than I anticipated.
To be sure, I ended up with the machine just above the machine I actually 
wanted for this new adventure.

Not having a cd drive alone can make me crazy.
I had no idea that the off line user guides I anticipated would not exist, 
at all, for Catalina, leaving me wondering how, and I admit why separate 
guides are gone.
Feels rather like saying, we are going to teach you to swim by dropping 
you in the middle of the pool...good luck.
I am sure, i will eventually reach my desired effortlessness, but, I 
shutter to think how individuals, most to be sure, who are not going to 
locate lists at all feel empowered by the prospect of taking on  all the 
wonderful  options available when getting down the basics in a learn as 
you go without the risk of changing something by mistake  is so  real.

just my thoughts,
kare

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to check in with everyone and wish you all a happy Apple
accessibility summer.  I cannot believe that August 2022 is already
underway.

You know, it's kind of funny, I use my Apple devices more and more and yet I
have less and less to say about them as they continue to get better and
better.  (smile)

A few things that I have been intending to post but have not:

1.
In addition to my wired EarPods, I now use both AirPods, third gen, and
Airpods Pro, on a regular basis.  While I would have to say that my Airpods
Pro offer better sound quality, I like the Airpods third gen, because they
offer an easier / lighter listening experience.  I know that sounds crazy
but, for me, it is true.

2.
My poor old 8 Plus is truly on its last legs.  The lightening port can no
longer hold a cable, unassisted.  This is to say, in order for me to keep a
cable inserted, the phone must be on a horizontal plain or the cable will
fall out.  I do use a wireless charger with it but .  I am going to try to
make it last until the next iPhone release which, hopefully, will offer some
form of touch ID.  However, If touch ID is not included in the next release
I will either purchase the biggest best new phone or I will get an S E.  One
way or another, my beloved 8 Plus is on its way out (smile.)

3.
My iPad 10.5 2017 is going strong; it runs like a champ. However, I am
definitely going to get a new MacBook Pro after I purchase my next iPhone.
I have a MacBook Air, M1, in the house but I really don't like the fact that
it automatically powers on at the touch of any key. This is quite annoying.

4.
As for software?  I find that I am using fewer and fewer apps.  I am not
sure why.

All of the apps that allow me to easily manage my finances continue to be my
favorite apps, of course.  However the Amazon apps continue to be at the top
of my must have list.  I noticed some kind of a glitch between VoiceOver and
Alexa on an iPhone 11, the other day.  Interesting as this glitch does not
occur on my beloved 8 Plus.  My solution?  Delete and then reinstall the
Alexa app.

Pill Reminder, My Chart, CA Lottery, and Yelp also head-up my favorite apps
list, these days.  Of course, I am omitting all of the native Apple apps as
their significance to my accessible life is unparalleled

While I continue to be a big fan of Twitter, for some reason, the app, and
the service itself, for that matter, feel less streamline and unencumbered,
these days.  Just my opinion, of course.

Uber, Lift, and Insta Cart are amazing, as always.

And of course, all of the book reading apps remain dear to my heart.

While I would love to list some games that I enjoy on either iOS or iPad OS,
alas, I cannot.  I do not know of any onboard (not requiring an internet
connection) VoiceOver accessible card games and / or board games; a sad
reality, to be sure.

All replies to this post are welcome and, in fact, greatly appreciated.

I hope this finds you all happy and well.

Mark

Hello,
 The below process should work:
1. Open System Preferences
2. Open the Language and Region page
3. Press VO-command-T to move to the table of selected languages.
4. Press VO-downArrow you should now land on "Add a preferred language 
button".


Press this button and there will be a search field to find a language. 
Once you select add to add a selected language you will get prompts 
for if you want that language as your primary and perhaps a prompt 
asking you to select a input method for the language you just selected.


You  can also find the "Add a preferred language button" button by 
using VO-Left, but first you have to review all the number and 
currency settings.

Re: iPhone apple music playlist name

2022-08-16 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Hello,

Seems you have to navigate by touch for this one. 
Double tap the play list.
Find the "more" button in the top right of the screen, and tap it.
Find the Edit button in the list that comes up.
Below the Picture you should find two text areas both of these are editable one 
says the name of the play list followed by the word text. If you double tap on 
this you should be able to edit the playlist name.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Re: Braille and apple products.

2022-08-16 Thread Jonathan Cohn
There is a verbosity area of Macintosh voiceover that includes a braille tab. 
Setting this verbosity to low prevents headers from being brailled and probably 
does a few other things also. 
My complaint with braille is that often when I use a braille display and try 
and go back in and correct a misspelling, the editor ends up duplicating the 
word with the misspelling in it.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

iPhone apple music playlist name

2022-08-16 Thread Patrick Ford
Hi,
In creating a new playlist using the iPhone, by default the first track chosen 
becomes the name of the playlist. I cannot figure out how to manipulate this 
edit field to choose the name I want.
Can this be done, or naming is only by way of the mac?
Thanks.
Patrick
