I have an iPhone SE for the moment but like others will probably be forced to switch to Android to maintain choice in this area. Apple are strangely arrogant in this respect. They obviously regard perfectly functional technology as old hat - they have never bent on allowing SD card storage for example.

Cochlear does not offer Bluetooth connectivity. Its either direct connect or telecoil. The newest processors now have Resound wireless. There is a huge difference in research of a medical nature and of other types such as computers and transportation. I do not know what the time frame is for cochlear implants but in the States, FDA approval surely is slow as the proverbial turtle. Might be why I do not follow trends. If I hear of something new that I need today, and find out it might be a year or 3 down the pike, I would not be happy. I am not that patient. (smiles) Back to the iPhone. I use neckloops for I do not want others nearby to hear any conversation. So I have always used a neckloop.

Re: El Capitan
For the app store issue, let it load and if it seems not to load, command tab to another app then command tab back to the app store again for now.

For example, when I go to the App Store, I have to do all sorts of gymnastics in order to navigate the page and get feedback from Voiceover. Plus, when typing in the search field on said page, Voiceover does not echo back what I am entering even though the characters are being entered faithfully. Is this an issue that other list members are having, and if so, is there a good work around. As mentioned above, I upgraded my system rather than doing a clean install.

Re: Taking The Headphone Jack Off Phones Is User-Hostile and Stupid, Have Some Dignity
Apple is not denying anyone anything. So another adapter might be in order. If the iPhone 7 brings new features that everyone will die for, adding one adapter to the mix is minuscule.

They are for example far superior to the earphones provided with my SE - which are very quiet by comparison. I hate the fact that Apple wants to deny me the possibility of using my wired earphones and force me into unnecessarily expensive bluetooth options or alternatively buy another clumsy adaptor limiting the funtionality of my device. I have an iPhone SE for the moment but like others will probably be forced to switch to Android to maintain choice in this area. Apple are strangely arrogant in this respect. They obviously regard perfectly functional technology as old hat - they have never bent on allowing SD card storage for example. I notice that Samsung bent to consumer demand and reinstated the SD Card into their phones after consumer protest. I doubt whether Apple would listen in the same way somehow.

Scott, A cool design that was hundreds of thousands of years in the making. Evolution at work. Same principle that we see with the iPhone. Yes its possible the human race was seeded. After all our solar system is quite young compared to the galaxy we fondly know as the Milky Way. We are not a creation of randomness nor is the creation theory scientifically valid.

Evolution is also not a brute force process like the unintelligent design folks would like to have us believe. It is totally iterative and builds on previous successes so just like you don’t brute force ciphers to crack them any more you don’t brute force evolution either. Enough super membranes bump together in 11 dimensional space eventually one of them resonates in to a universe like ours with life and inflation. Most probably pop or collapse but just like coal every once in a while conditions are right and you get a diamond. No invisible men sitting on clouds required. It is possible we were seeded but I’ll let E.T. speak to that topic. Pan spermia might also account for the population but that’s just the result of organic molecules forming in the centers of dying stars.

And yes, total tech nerd and proud of it.:) I have a good friend who is a perceptual psychologist and studies non visual way finding and human machine interfaces. I’m trying to get ahold of him because I think he could shed some light on this subject. The idea of connecting directly to the brain for the ear or obviously for vision interests me. The idea of circumventing the cochlear altogether and connecting to the brain is a tricky one though. That cochlear does a lot of preprocessing. That’s the thing that learns how to hear music or language. Cochlear of Chinese people for example have different tonal assignments to the individual nerve ends than say someone who grew up in the West using our 12 tone scale. Nerves that get tickled by English words react differently when programmed to hear Middle Eastern languages and so forth. When babies are born this nerve mass is undefined and programmable. Like the brain as you get older these values are assigned based on many factors including culture, location, up bringing and many other factors. As we get older these become fixed. Just like we old timers get set in our ways so do our neurons. Once it gets passed the ear things get really dicy really quick. Same with vision. Theres real rudimentary ability to basically lightly shock parts of the visual center and with a developed cortex have the person perceive a flash. The flashes can be theoretically grouped together in a matrix of electrodes to say build a score board effect where the user perceives say a basic shape of an uppercase E by stimulating the right electrodes in order There is an interesting picture on the net of the first attempts of this taking up 2 racks of computer equipment. I’m absolutely certain you could do the calculations now in an iPhone. The fact is though, once we get to the brain we don’t know much. THere’s over 4 quadrillion discrete chemicals at play not to mention trillions of interconnections. When imaged behavior is also odd. Hearing and site for example trip all sorts of areas all around the brain and in many cases it’s hard to tell the difference of that to someone imagining they are hearing the same thing but sitting quietly. There’s a lot more paralyzation and distributed processing going on there than you’d think and we really have no idea. We’re getting there though, you folks with the artificial hearing blazed a lot of trails, the military is spending huge dollars on this right now to help restore censes lost in returning Vets. I believe they have a system now for artificial arms that will transmit basic touch and there are some hands that can respond to nerve pulses.

Re: amazon's accesability contact.
Mark Taylor posted some information probably last year about downloading music via web interface. I have not done this as I have not bought music in a while. I am pasting below the information Amazon sent to Mark. As an alternative, you can download your music directly through your web browser. To help make this easier, we've completely redesigned web browser downloading. It now gives you the option to download albums and multiple tracks at the same time using .ZIP files. ZIP is a file format that compresses content for quicker transfer. You can download music through your browser after completing a Digital Music Store purchase, from Your Orders (https://www.amazon.com/yourorders), and from your music library https://www.amazon.com/musiclibrary Just select the albums or songs you want to download and click the "Download" option onscreen. If prompted to install the Amazon Music app for PC and Mac, you can click "No thanks, just download music files directly." For multiple songs and albums, your download starts automatically in a pop-up window, and is split into one or more .ZIP files. You can click the files in the download window once they're ready to save to your computer. If you've only selected one song, it downloads as an individual .MP3 file. To complete your download: 1. Choose "Save" if your browser asks whether you want to open or save the file(s). 2. Open the file(s) once the download is complete. Most browsers display the status of your download onscreen, and then give you an option to open it. 3. Files typically save to your browser's default "Downloads" folder. You can then move each of the music tracks you've downloaded to the preferred location on your computer (e.g. "Your Music" or "Music").

For Karen, Amazon Music
Hi Karen and others, After Amazon MP3 Downloader (Windows) was given the boot, I installed the Amazon Music app. I do not recall just what I had to do initially but now, when I buy music, all I need do is open the Windows app and my new music goes into a chosen folder. I see no reason why the Mac version will not do just as well. Its set to download new music into a chosen folder within the Downloads folder. There is an option to put it directly into iTunes but I prefer to do it manually so I can find the files quickly to put on media players and into a backup folder. Then I copy to iTunes. I have not bought music since installing the Mac app so no idea if it works but suspect it will work fine. From E.T.'s Keyboard...

Re: Ringtones in Mac's Contacts
Apparently this is something Apple had in prior OSs. In Yosemite and maybe El Capitan there used to be a ringtones folder in the system library but not in Sierra. I did not find anything about adding any of this. I did find someone found a workaround by replacing the built in tone with his custom tone but that may have been the alert tones. There was mention too if adding new tones to the Modern folder which exists in the Alert tone folder. I did not see a Classic folder that we see in Contacts when picking a ringtone but does not come up in a Spotlight search. Maybe I need to let this go huh. From E.T.'s Keyboard. . .

Re: Contacts in Sierra
Hi Tim, One problem I have discovered is that some of my contacts are not in iCloud but in the the iPhone contacts. So far I have not found a way to transfer them back into iCloud. I could enter them again as new contacts but I do not know how many there are yet. Is there a way to transfer them? From E.T.'s Keyboard. . . I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

The Apple Contacts app uses the cardDAV protocol and Google along with other services allows for syncing with Apple devices using the CardDAV protocol. So, if you have a list of contacts within your Contacts area of your gMail account, those contacts are made available to the Mac's Contacts app. Those cards made available through Google and some other services seem to be pseudo cards, in that they don't appear to be specific vCards within your Contacts app. They are accessible to you, and will be one of the addresses available when sending eMails,, but I don't think that an actual card is created for them. When you select All Contacts from the Groups list, you'll notice that, even though you may have a card listed in multiple accounts, usually only one is listed in the All Contacts list. The Contacts app seems to link those together for listing purposes, even though they haven't been physically linked. At least that's what I've determined. Later...

Hope this helps! If. You hve any questions feel fee to contact me. I look forward in hearing form yousoon. Thanks and God bless!

Re: Contacts in Sierra
Life is good now, thanks so much Tim. From E.T.'s Keyboard. . . I have seen the truth and it makes no sense. E-mail: ancient.ali...@icloud.com On 2/1/2017 8:05 AM, Tim Kilburn wrote: Hi, To get around this, I'd go into Settings, iCloud and turn off Contacts. Your iPhone will ask if you want to keep a copy locally on your iPhone or to delete them. Normally, I tell it to delete them so I don't get duplicates etc, but in your case, I'd tell it to keep them locally on your iPhone. So, what's happened then, is that you're no longer linked to iCloud with your Contacts, but you've now got all your iCloud and local Contacts in one spot. Back out of iCloud and Settings and go into your Contacts app to confirm that you still have them all. If life is good, then back out of Contacts and go into Settings, iCloud again and re-enable the Contacts service. All the contacts on your iPhone should now go back up to iCloud. In this process, it should recognize the ones that already exist in iCloud and only add the ones that do not exist in your iCloud Contacts. Give it a few minutes to sync everything up, then see if the new contacts show up in the Contacts app on your Mac. If they do, then all is good. If you wish, you could then follow this process one more time, but in this version, tell your iPhone that you don't want to keep a copy of your contacts on the iPhone. Once you re-enable the Contacts service, only iCloud Contacts will remain on your iPhone. Should save a small amount of storage and just clean things up some. Hope this makes sense. Later...

Jonathan, Not sure which element is involved. At some point, in between updates, when I invoked the screensaver, VO would announce "Screensaver something".

So, in System Prefs, Energy Saver, there should be sliders for both the computer and the display sleep settings. When the display goes to sleep, whatever process is invoked must cause the Authentication window to be activated. If in Security, you've set that to require a password to unlock, then the login screen is made the active process, but if that is not set, the Authentication window is still invoked, thus VO says its piece. You could get around this by setting the Display sleep to be a longer interval. I would have thought that setting either the App verbosity or the Window verbosity to "Low" would limit this announcement, but it did not.

Re: Contacts in Sierra
Tim and all, I started working on this and have some questions. First, I found most of my contacts on the iPhone had been linked. Hopw did that happen? A change that came in iOS 10? On the Mac, disabled sync in all accounts. While there, I noticed in the Mac's Contacts preferences. each account shows "cardDAV". I do not remember seeing this prior to Sierra. That made me wonder. Does enabling sync for the non iCloud accounts actually mean contacts for each account or just one? I have a Google and a Charter account.

Just make sure that you turn off iCloud syncing for Contacts in System Prefs first before doing any wiping, otherwise, you'll lose it all. Also, when it asks if you want to keep a copy of your contacts on your Mac, say "No". This should help to make sure that there's no duplicates when you re-enable syncing of contacts.

So, in System Prefs, Energy Saver, there should be sliders for both the computer and the display sleep settings. When the display goes to sleep, whatever process is invoked must cause the Authentication window to be activated. If in Security, you've set that to require a password to unlock, then the login screen is made the active process, but if that is not set, the Authentication window is still invoked, thus VO says its piece. You could get around this by setting the Display sleep to be a longer interval. I would have thought that setting either the App verbosity or the Window verbosity to "Low" would limit this announcement, but it did not.

What do you mean by making the screen saver longer? Since I do not want my Mac to sleep, if I will be away from it for a period of time, I invoke the screen saver.

Go to system preferences after you've plugged in your scanner and switched it on, choose printers and faxes and add your scanner to your system. Hope this helps a little.

In Settings, iCloud, Photos, you can check on if you have the iCloud Photo Library enabled. If so, then you'll need to be careful as deleting a photo from the iPhone will delete it from every device you use iCloud Photo Library on. An easy way of saving space when iCloud Photo Library is enabled is to tell your iPhone to "Optimize iPhone Storage". When this is enabled, only low resolution copies of your photos are kept on the iPhone with the higher resolution version stored up in iCloud. This system is pretty slick. I have over 45,000 photos in my library, and they are all visible on my iPhone even though there's no possible way that the over 180 GB library would normally fit on my iPhone. If you're not using the iCloud Photo Library, then simply remove the photos when you're in the Photos app. Later...

Re: Home Sharing
I came to the conclusion that since music can be played via Home Sharing, I will delete that content from the iPad and then transfer my audiobooks to it. I will not bother with the iPhone, its too small. Geez, the trouble I am dealing with just to listen to some audiobooks. Oh well. We tried. And watch, as soon as I do this Apple will fix it!
