Fair enough. I knew that was the case for Windows users, but I didn't think so 
for the mac. I stand corrected then.

can ask me off list for it.

Regarding AT&T versus Verizon and coverage, you really need to 
check your specific area. WhileVerizon has the broadest overall coverage 
nationwide, that doesn't mean it's the best in your particular area. In other 
words, you should have a sighted person whom you trust look at coverage maps, 
and also be sure that once you get your phone, if the coverage proves 
unsatisfactory, you have a period of time where you can return the phone and 
get out of your contract with absolutely no penalty to you. You won't be able 
to use that same phone on AT&T, because the modem in the Verizon iPhone 7 is 
different from the modem in the AT&T and T-Mobile iPhone 7.

get spotty coverage with AT&T in certain important places like the gym, and 
even one bar at my house. I'm hoping Verizon will get better coverage. By 
switching to a 1 GB data plan with Verizon, (I rarely use more than half a gig 
each month), I'll actually save 10 bucks off my monthly charge for the new 
phone and the new plan. What are the advantages to Verizon over AT&T ? is it 
just a superior network overall? Thanks for any help
  By the way, I selected jet black because, with the phone in hand, 
I noticed that the finish is more "grippy" then the other finishes, And doesn't 
slip out of my hands so easily.

Verizon does not sell locked handsets (full stop).  Any handsets

There is also a true unlocked iPhone sold separately that has the

verizon will not be any technically different from the unlocked 
phone, they ship unlocked out of the box.

Sorry Scott.


I didn't mean to spread bad info. BTW, since you are the God of Verizon, 
and since you know everything about them and apparently work with them, 
how bout your badge rep ID number? Or, are you not prideful enough to 
give such info. This should be nothing you're nor any other Verizon God 
would be unwilling to provide, so what is it, Hare Crishna? Do I need to 
do a Puja to get Shiva to destroy your attitude toward me? There are 108 
reasons why I'd stop now, Scott, while you can.

Re: voice recorder

2017-01-02 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
It was my understanding that Just Press Record wouldn't upload to Dropbox as 
well as Google Drive.

I was going to suggest Dropvox, but it looks like the initial poster wants both 
Dropbox and Drive integration. Dropvox only does Dropbox syncing, so, there 
went that idea.

*Subject:* Re: movie audio description app

I actually got free passes to my local theater, as they insisted that 
the movie, "Sully" was not audio described. I later found out it was 
actually so.


I'm not sexist, nor am I ageist, if that be a word, but it was a 
Sunday  afternoon when we went. Normally, our theater is wonderful, 
and there isn't even a question of doubt when I ask them for one of 
the headset devices, but that day, they took about 15 minutes just to 
find a headset, then the gal who was behind the box office counter 
must have only been... Sheesh! I'd putter at maybe no more, pushing 
it, at most, 16. I thought that was against child labour laws to allow 
someone that young to work, but, I won't go there. Anyway, she didn't 
have a freaking clue! The headset she gave me wasn't even charged, so 
I took it back. She gave me another that was only barely charged, and 
it only seemed to have the listenning assistance turned on. When I hit 
the button to swap over to description, all I got was static. I went 
back again and told them, and they insisted that they didn't have 
description for that movie, and that nationally, regardless the 
theater chain, no one had it for that title. When I finally called 
back, showed them the IMDB page that states it had it, and then even 
had a friend who saw it described call and tell them he saw it 
described, they finally confessed that the kid working the counter 
that day was new, and didn't know anything about it. Frankly, taht's 
no excuse. She should a been trained before being hierred. I'm sorry! 
They agreed, and because of it, we now have 4 free passes, being 4 of 
us including myself went that day.


On a sidenote, don't see Sully if you can't get description for any 
reason. It's very visual! You'll need it, trust me! If you can see it 
that way though, it's one of the best movies I've ever seen!


Anyway, my point is, not to get too off topic from mac related things 
continuing this thread, but I agree with Ryan. You may need to insist 
that the movie is described. If they don't know what you're talking 
about, which they should, but if they don't, then educate them. Most 
theaters have some form of internet access. Do what I did. Don't ask 
them to, but insist! demand! that they go to IMDB's website, and look 
the movie up. If they refuse, then either have the movie detail page 
up on your phone, or have an already made printout of the details page 
for the title, so you can show them first hand that it has audio 
description. That way, if they say no it doesn't, you just put it back 
in their face, and say, "Oh yeah? Really? Then, explain to me what 
this little logo means." I've been known to not be the nicest about 
this with some people, but hey. I get it done.

Nope, but if you're visiting one of many chains that now offer
audio description, just borrow a device from their customer
service desk. As an example, where I live in San Francisco, AMC,
Century, Alamo Draft House, they all have listening devices
available. My suggestion is to get there early, ask for a device,
and repeatedly insist that they make double, triple sure that they
chose audio description, video description, visually impaired, or
whatever their software suggests isn't assisted listening.
Assisted listening is when the movie's standard soundtrack is
instead fed to the device. This helps hearing impaired individuals
enjoy the film. Many connect the device to a hearing aid, or to a
streamer that sends the audio to their Bluetooth hearing aids.
Clearly you just want that audio description track, so if you get
into the theater and the audio you hear in your headphones matches
the house audio playing for the trailers, go right back out and
insist they chose assistive listening, and ask them to reconfigure.

Good luck,
Ryan

Re: movie audio description app

2016-12-29 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I actually got free passes to my local theater, as they insisted that the 
movie, "Sully" was not audio described. I later found out it was actually so.

I'm not sexist, nor am I ageist, if that be a word, but it was a Sunday  
afternoon when we went. Normally, our theater is wonderful, and there isn't 
even a question of doubt when I ask them for one of the headset devices, but 
that day, they took about 15 minutes just to find a headset, then the gal who 
was behind the box office counter must have only been... Sheesh! I'd putter at 
maybe no more, pushing it, at most, 16. I thought that was against child labour 
laws to allow someone that young to work, but, I won't go there. Anyway, she 
didn't have a freaking clue! The headset she gave me wasn't even charged, so I 
took it back. She gave me another that was only barely charged, and it only 
seemed to have the listenning assistance turned on. When I hit the button to 
swap over to description, all I got was static. I went back again and told 
them, and they insisted that they didn't have description for that movie, and 
that nationally, regardless the theater chain, no one had it for that title. 
When I finally called back, showed them the IMDB page that states it had it, 
and then even had a friend who saw it described call and tell them he saw it 
described, they finally confessed that the kid working the counter that day was 
new, and didn't know anything about it. Frankly, taht's no excuse. She should a 
been trained before being hierred. I'm sorry! They agreed, and because of it, 
we now have 4 free passes, being 4 of us including myself went that day.

On a sidenote, don't see Sully if you can't get description for any reason. 
It's very visual! You'll need it, trust me! If you can see it that way though, 
it's one of the best movies I've ever seen!

Anyway, my point is, not to get too off topic from mac related things 
continuing this thread, but I agree with Ryan. You may need to insist that the 
movie is described. If they don't know what you're talking about, which they 
should, but if they don't, then educate them. Most theaters have some form of 
internet access. Do what I did. Don't ask them to, but insist! demand! that 
they go to IMDB's website, and look the movie up. If they refuse, then either 
have the movie detail page up on your phone, or have an already made printout 
of the details page for the title, so you can show them first hand that it has 
audio description. That way, if they say no it doesn't, you just put it back in 
their face, and say, "Oh yeah? Really? Then, explain to me what this little 
logo means." I've been known to not be the nicest about this with some people, 
but hey. I get it done.

Chris.

  Nope, but if you're visiting one of many chains that now offer audio 
description, just borrow a device from their customer service desk. As an 
example, where I live in San Francisco, AMC, Century, Alamo Draft House, they 
all have listening devices available. My suggestion is to get there early, ask 
for a device, and repeatedly insist that they make double, triple sure that 
they chose audio description, video description, visually impaired, or whatever 
their software suggests isn't assisted listening. Assisted listening is when

Perhaps a dumb question about braille on iOS

2016-12-20 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Before I go too far into this message, I want to save any confusion. I know I 
said this in my subject, but let me reidderate: this is in regards to iOS, 
*not!* OSX.

So, I'm not sure if this would actually work, but I figured that I'd ask. How 
extensive is iOS's USB support? By this what I mean in relation to braille is, 
let's say I was to buy a female USB to lightning adapter. I know for a fact 
that Apple sells them. Could I, then, in theory, take my Pac Mate Omni BX 20's 
braille display, plug it via USB into the adapter, then put that adapter into 
the lightning port of my iPhone, or iPad, and expect it to allow me to go into 
Voiceover settings/Braille, and get my display to work? I just got off the 
phone with Apple before sending this message, and they told me that was 
actually a really darn good question, and to tell me the truth, they really 
honestly aren't sure. They said they suspect? it would work? but they just 
can't be too sure.

Have any a you guys actually tried this, and if so, diddit work?

Chris.

2016-12-14 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

Shawn, I'd love that script, and directions on how to get it working.

You can send it to:

clgillan...@gmail.com

I've not really installed Apple scripts in a very long time, so if you also 
could tell me step by step how to get this working, that would be great.


Chris.

Hi guys. A couple things here. I can still get battery percentages with the 
battery status Applescript that I have. If anyone wants it, let me know. 
Second, has anyone running 2010 Macs tried to use Alex? Does he still crash 
Voiceover in this update?

   Did a quick read and it makes sense to me. I really do not believe
the time remaining on a battery is reliable but that is me.

   I am still in update mode. Perhaps the lack of a VO speaking
percentage is a minor bug? If the image is there then that must be it.

I knew the time remaining wasn’t hugely accurate but this seems like
Apple dumbing down their product because users can’t think straight.  I
don’t like that.  Should be a toggled deal.  But that’s me.

Scott,

The original link had a typo in it.  Here's what I've found:

Again, it appears that there's still an image of the percentage, but
VO isn't able to announce that as far as I can tell.

One thing of note, it appears that the Battery Menu Extras item has
lost the ability to announce the current Battery level.  That is, as
you move across the Menu Extras, the current battery level, or time

Hi Chris,

No A bridge isn't needed however I use one and for the simple reason I

And it also allows me to keep the sonos sepperate from my main network

Hi,

I've been following some of the discussions on Sonos because for quite a

whether anybody on the list has Sonos connect:AMP.  In its description
it says that one could connect old speakers to it and use Sonos wifi
capabilities to airplay music to it.  I happen to have a pair of good
speakers  which are very old but I'm unwilling to get rid of them
because of the quality of sound they used to give me.  So I'm thinking I
might be able to save them by getting Sonos Connect:AMP.  Also, Sonos

Hi Simon,

That’s correct, the receiver only is $3000, you have to buy up to 11
more speakers and 2 subs to get the fullest as well as an additional 2
channel amplifier.  You get 9 amplifiers built in to the receiver and
an extra 2 channels out which you attach to a second amplifier.
Certainly, 9.2 would be sufficient.

That’s correct, the receiver only is $3000, you have to buy up to 11 
more speakers and 2 subs to get the fullest as well as an additional 2 
channel amplifier.  You get 9 amplifiers built in to the receiver and 
an extra 2 channels out which you attach to a second amplifier. 
Certainly, 9.2 would be sufficient.

Hi Scott,

I'm guessing that's not with speakers the 3K?

That sounds bloody amazing shame I don't own this house, I'd knock 
the living room down and build my rooms around the stereo.

For a goof today I went and looked at a ultra high end receiver.  I
mention it here on the Mac list because it was very configurable via
safari which I actually tried and loved.  You can set up all sorts of
32 bit audio processing, automatic room equalization, but the kicker,
Dolby Atmos and it’s own proprietary 3d emersion algorithm along with
DTS Neo and several other objected oriented DTS formats.  Whoa!  I
listened to an 11 channel setup, believe it or not, 11.2 where you 
had

11 channels and 2 subwoofers.  Again, whoa!  Several sets of speakers
were set in the front for an expanded sound stage in front of you,
sides, back, and yes over head with 2 subwoofers that automatically
adjust so the base is distributed evenly around the room rather than
from a single point.  On the video side it upscaled everything to 4K
60 FPS complete with HDR video or you could genitive pass through if
you wanted.  You could also break up the 11 channels and have
different speakers for different zones so say 7.1 in the mail room 
and

5.1 in the other or 5.1 and several sets of 2 etc.  The thing that
blew me away though was the automatic calibration and setup.  What
would have taken an audio degree in my day to configure used 8
microphone pickups that you scatter around the room and it uses pink
noise and other pulses to set itself up.  Also included WiFi so you
can grab your XM or other streamed content, it automatically software
updated and you could buy extra CODECS and decoders for different
surround standards.  All for $3000 which ain’t bad when you consider
how many features you get.  There’s also an App for the iPad or 
iPhone

to configure, supports bluetooth and includes preamp outs in case the

If you are a heavy user of the iPhone mail app, don't rush to upgrade to 
10.2 if you are not already in the beta program. Since I suppose were not 
supposed to say what is the problem on some of these lists, I won't. Just 
saying, don't do it before you hear about the problem if it doesn't get 
fixed.

Gosh, you know... I've seen this behavior before, so you're not alone. I 
just don't know a sollution, lamentably. And, when I did! see it, it wasn't 
in the Flash installer.


It will be very interesting to see what you find out about this in the long

Hi! 
Try option command left arrow and option command right arrow to go to top 
or bottom.
You can use the shift key in conjunction with these keys to if you want to 
mark mails and remove them.
Otherwise use arrow up or down with the shift key to mark the mails you

  Hi, 

  I have a few basic mail questions.  This is in the latest OS. 

  First I need to know the commands that will allow navigating to go to the

Interact with the messages table. Command+A to select all, then hit delete.

To get to the top and bottom of the message table, or any! table for that mind, 
option+up arrow, and to go to the bottom, Option+up arrow.

Or, refer to the lesson I did in our classes on how to move to the top and

Hi Scott,

Yes all of the above.

Two play fives would be better,
But in my head it would be the play bar at the front center and then a 
play five in each front corner,


Then put a set of play ones or play 3 in the rear corners
So you have a 5 speaker setup,

If you want a .1 then you'll need the sub woofer as well.

But you could get away quite nicely with the play fives and the play bar 
by themselves,


Put the fives in the rear corners and the bar as you said under the tv 
will give you a pretty dam good surround sound


As for speaker stands,
I've not seen one for the sonos speakers and they are a crazy shape to put 
on a stand,more of a rectangular box slightly wedged towards the back of 
the speaker.


Each speaker needs a power socket to by the way,

As for use by a sighted person,

Hell if we have no trouble then he'd have no trouble.

I'd highly suggest if it was possible
Go in to your nearest sonos sales store and take a selection of music and 
get them to show you the speakers in action with the configuration your 
thinking of


That way you get an idea of the real sounds from the speaker units.

Subject: Re: Question about the Sonos products


Hi Scott,

We recently set up a Sonos system.

The Play One is a small speaker. It can do basic stereo sound, or it can 
work as part of a pair, or as part of a 5.1 surround system. I am not sure 
about part of a 7.1 system, and Sonos does not yet do upmos for vertical 
spacial hearing.
The Play Three and Play 5 can both also function as either a stereo speaker 
(laid horizontally,, or as the individual side of a stereo pair (laid 
vertically). Just set it up in the Sonos app.


My fiancé wanted to hire someone to set up the system, so I agreed that if I 
could not figure it out fairly quickly, we would bring in an installer. I am 
good with this sort of thing, but set-up is so simple that she could do it.


We purchased a PlayBar, two Play Threes, and three Play Ones. I was 
originally going to match the Play Threes with the PlayBar, but the store 
only had one in stock, so we put the single Play Three in the bedroom (where 
I was going to put a Play One. That would leave a play One for the bathroom 
and a play One for our office. The Play Ones worked so nicely with the 
PlayBar that the office was upgraded to the other Play Three. Oh, the family 
room also has the Sonos Sub. I really like this Sub. It is a brick. The 
speakers are inside and face each other. This allows for excellent deep base 
without any sub rattling. Sonos says it is because the two speakers facing 
each other cancels the rattle distortion out.


All the speakers can play the same thing, or each room can play different 
things, and changing is very easy in the app. My sighted partner absolutely 
loves the simplicity of the app. I love its accessibility.


Sonos states stereo pairs may only be created between two speakers of same 
type. So, one could use a play Three as center speaker, two Play Fives as 
front stereo speakers, and two Play Ones or Threes as surrounds, with the 
Sub for proper 5.1 sound, or one can use the PlayBar for the front with the 
Sub and surrounds. Sonos performs all the calculations for excellent sound 
internally within all the speakers. They sound quite good, and my fiancé 
says they sync perfectly with the visuals.


When we first started playing music through the surround system, the Play 
Ones were set on surround enhance mode. I changed it in the Sonos app to 
have the surrounds act as full speakers for music playback. Sonos remembers 
the change, and switches automatically depending on whether source is video 
or music. And, for set-up / video sound, it is just a digital optical cable 
from the TV to the playBar. Sonos uses the wifi in the house to create its 
own network. However, if there is no wifi network, the speakers can be 
connected together with cat5 cables.


As for sound, I have heard better speakers. A good friend has a pair which 
cost him $4,000 per speaker. Those sound fantastic. Sonos is not quite that 
good, and does not play anywhere near as loud. But, they sound better than 
anything I have owned before. They have excellent sound definition and 
excellent sound and frequency separation. Each speaker in the unit has its 
own digital amplifier, and this makes a significant difference. Also, Sonos 
regularly and automatically rolls out updates. The system updates late at 
night when not working, and they improve automatically.


Kind regards,

David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA

Hi there.
Have you thought of a decent blue tooth speaker? In my kitchen I use a big 
jamb ox which I think sounds very good, and it is around $300.

or it was, when I got it
The other thing you can do is to get an airport express and then connect 
this to any speakers or amps you want without limitations.

Re: Stereo speaker setup for a kitchen accessible with Voiceover

2016-11-30 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Does it have to be Airplay? If not, I'd really suggest two Play1 speakers 
from Sonos, and right now, until the 31st of December, they're even on sale, 
and yes, they can be controlled with an iOS device, and of corse are 
completely wireless.


http://www.sonos.com

If you get them, let me know. I love mine, and would be more than happy to 
help you one on one with getting them set up.

Apple TV, no, but it works great in the web player on the mac with Safari,

I had canceled my GooglePlay Subscription because it’s not available on the 
Apple TV or the Mac.

Your subscription is paid directly through your iTunes account.

Re: google play music on the mac

2016-11-23 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

I'm just curious what you didn't find to be satisfactory about Apple Music.

Honestly, I have both it and Google Play Music through means of a Youtube 
Red subscription which comes with Google Play Music as well, believe it or 
not.

Subject: google play music on the mac


so I have cancelled my apple music membership with the desire to find a 
service more desirable. I was looking at a couple of services such as 
spotify and google play music. How’s the accessibility status of the spotify 
app on the mac? As I understand it after reading the post on Applevis, the 
mac app isn’t very accessible. Does google play music have an accessible mac 
app?

Thanks

Re: Podcasting on the Mac?

2016-11-19 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
That's it. That's the name of the app I was talking about in my last post. 
Thanks for the clarification. BTW, that dev also has an app to do the same 
thing with Facetime, and yes, it works both with audio only, as well as with 
video, so take your pick.

  Some great tips here. We use Call Recorder for Mac to record our interviews 
on iAccessVO through Skype. Great program for $30 very accessible and you can 
set to record all calls. It will record as a Quick time file and you can easily 
convert to WAV or MP3 with the built in software. We also use Lybsyn to host 
our podcast they seem to be the best, and everyone is spot on about Amadeus Pro 
and Mosen and the Blind Abilities pods. Good luck.

Hi,


I use Audio Hijack to record and Amadeus Pro to edit the Tech Doctor 
podcast. In addition to Jonathan Mosen’s excellent Amadeus tutorial, the Blind 
Abilities folks have also done a podcast series on using Amadeus. If you learn 
everything that both have to offer, you will be an Amadeus Pro expert.

Hi.

This is a bit off topic but I have to ask this question.

I received an e-mail today to my me account as I only use that account for 
personal things and you may know I use my alias for stuff like this list.


Well, today I received an e-mail today to my me account, I will put this 
e-mail below so you can see what I'm talking about.  Now I think this e-mail 
is junk as I am frightened to do what is asked on it although I'm tempted if 
it means you get ready cash but I'm scared.


But what I'd like to know, how on earth do people get your e-mail especially 
if you do not give it out?  This e-mail is below.  I'd like someone's 
opinion for some one to tell me is this junk as It is difficult to tell.


I hope everyone understands that I only do this kind of thing to get advice 
from anyone who is happy to give it to me and as Mark says that this is a 
list to share things because we are all in the same boat, Visually impaired 
which is not my favourite word as I'm totally blind so my vision can't be

You are in good hands, my friend! I use Sonos products so extensively, I'm 
literally a private beta tester. I can't really say much more than that 
however regarding that fact. However, in regards to your question, the 
Sonos app is not very speech friendly with voiceover on the Mac. This 
said, do you have an iOS device, or a Windows device? If so, you have two 
sollutions, both of which are 100% accessible.


First off, you can install the Sonos Controller iOS app. It is totally 
totally accessible! Secondly, you can go to:


http://www.sonos.com

and download the Windows PC version of the Sonos controller. Then, you'll 
also need to go to:


http://www.hartgen.org/sonos

and get the free JAWS scripts that Brian wrote for the controller. They're 
not required, but they'll definitely help tremendously.


Actually, you even have a 3rd option, come to think of it. You also can 
use the controller app through Android e with any of the screen readers 
over there like Talkback, Spiel, Shine, Voice Assist, etc. There might 
even be an app for the Kindle Fire, but not sure. If you have an Amazon 
Alexa Echo, you even can control the speakers with your voice.


You also may want to go to

http://www.mosen.org

Jonathan Mosen has written a book which is very very reasonably priced, 
and very very very worth it, which will explain every single aspect of the 
Sonos system. After reading the book cover to cover in one day, I was so 
freaking hooked/convinced, that I went that very day, practically begging! 
my grandmother to take me to Best Buy to pick up a set of Play1's. It was 
probably one of the best investments I've ever made!


Cristine, if you'd like to do so, this is my work number, but it rings at 
all hours of the day to my home office. I'll be here all tonight, and all 
tomorrow, so feel free to call me if you'd like to discuss this further 
via voice. I'd be tickled to death to help you with this! Again, this 
number already is very much public knowledge, so it's not like I'm giving 
out personal info on list. It's in my signature anyway, so it's not like 
people can't already get it.


You can call me at: 704-256-8010, Then choose option 1 from the IVR. If 
you don't get me, leave me a voicemail with a number, and I'll call you 
back. I'm on eastern time, and there is no time which is most convenient. 
Just call whenever.


Please don't return the speaker though. I cross my heart we can get you up 
and running! If you return, you'll definitely regret in the long run. 
Hell, I'd kill! for a set of play5's, but they weren't in my budget at the 
time.

Yes. Absolutely you can.

1. In the app, near the top of the screen, you'll find a button that is 
labeled with the name of the room that is currently playing. If you've 
grouped multiple rooms, it will be labeled with the name of all grouped 
rooms. For example, in my case, I hear Studio and bedroom. Double tap on 
this button.


2.  Now, in the bottom of the screen, you'll see a button that says room 
settings. Double tap on this.


3.  Now, find the room for the speaker you want to adjust the base and 
trebble. Double tap on it.


4.  In this screen, you should find a few things. Trueplay, which 
basically calebrates the speaker via means of test tones being played. 
This process is 100% accessible. It didn't used to be, but I got ahold of 
them, and worked very very extensively with them, and though I cannot 
clame that it was me who made it accessible, I think I probably had a huge 
part to do with it. You also under here have settings for compression on 
or off, reducing loudness, and your base/trebble, all of which are 
accessible.


As for volume, the play5 is a little weird. Let me try explaining this.

Take your hand on the front of the speaker grill on the front face of the 
speaker bezil. In the top center, you're going to feel a raised engraving 
bit of print letters. Note, this only is applicable to the Play5. I'll 
explain the Play 1 and 3 in a second.  OK, so get yourself oriented with 
that emblum. It's going to be magic key to getting this to work.


On the print raised label, move your finger up from the front face bezil 
right to the top of the unit. Let your finger glide off the front of your 
unit over the top edge until it rests right on the top of the speaker 
right there aligned with where that printed label would be on the front 
speaker grill. There is a small little window there. This is a touch 
pannel, but don't worry. This is very very very very very easy once you 
know where that print label is. You're gonna use that as home base to line 
yourself up. There are only 3 items on this touch screen, and they are not 
context sensitive. They always no matter what will be the same. They never 
ever ever change. So... on the left side of the window is volume down. On 
the right side is volume up. In the very center is play/pause. So if you 
can take your finger on the front faced print logo, then just slide your 
finger up off the front, over to the top of the unit, your finger should 
glide right over the window on the area you need to touch. This sounds 
maybe a little tricky, but I swear. It's not. It's really easy. I was able 
in the Best Buy store to consistently get this to work the very first try. 
It's really really not hard once you know where that print label is, and 
no this little trick.


The play 1 and 3's are a little different. On them, there is no touch 
screen. There are physical buttons.


You will notice that you have a long virtical bar on the top of the 
speaker, just a little offset to the left from the bottom center of the 
top of the unit.  Actually, I'm wrong, I just looked at mine. It's not 
offset. It's actually dead smack center. This is the volume. Obviously the 
bar is a rocker button. The top part will turn it up with each press, and 
the bottom part turns it down. Just above this is a small square button. 
It's about the size of the pad of your finger. This is play/pause.


Two things to note. ON the Play5, in the back of the speaker, where your 
power cord and your line in jack and what not is, there is a small little 
button. This is the connect button. When connecting the speaker to your 
controller, you'll be asked to hit the connect button. This is the button 
they're talking about.


On the Play1 and Play3, what you're gonna do is, you're gonna press the 
volume up, and the play/pause buttons at the same time, don't hold them 
in. Just press and release. You're not gonna hold the connect button 
either on the play5, just push and release, by the way. No holding 
necessary.  You should hear then a small little chime tone through the 
speaker, which will indicate you did it correctly, and the controller 
software should then progress automatically to the next step in the setup 
process.


One more thing. When a song is playing, on either the play1 or play 5, as 
well as the play 3, double pressing, or in the case of the play 5, 
tapping, the play pause button will advance to the next song, if

They've not broken it as far as accessibility, but I'm still pulling my hair 
out trying to figure out why things are moving so slow both on the upload, 
and download sides. Especially the former.

Hi,

For a GUI option, take a look at Transmit.  Totally accessible, unless 
they've broken it in the latest version.

With lftp, you get tab completion, so you don't have to type long file 
names.

may I ask a silly question...perhaps?
Does voiceover  work the same in terminal mode as it does with the rest of

meaning your functionality, voice choices, remain when you are in 
terminal?

tab key. This said though, I agree with  you, and figured that was what you

Re: Accessible ftp client for the mac.

2016-11-17 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

um,

I thought cls was the command in dos that cleared the screen, which in unix 
is simply just, "clear". I think the command you're thinking of is just 
"ls". And, if you don't want anything but just a straight list of 
files/folders then you can do, "ls -1".


It's kind a like the "dir" command was in the old dos days.

Still though, being he talks about Filezilla, I'm presuming that he wants a 
gui based app, not a CLI.

lftp will definitely work. You should be able to install it by first
installing HomeBrew, then installing the lftp package. Finally, run it

I’m not sure why there wouldn’t be hope for Apple, this is pretty common 
behavior although you’d have to be pretty odd to be ripping off parts of the 
tray that’s already installed.  I can sort of understand how this might 
happen though as sometimes the components feel different than you might

Guys, once again, Apple has done it! They have exceeded my expectations

So, here's the medium length version of the Sauga.

I have two iPhones, a 7+, and a 6S.

What I wanted to do was, I wanted to take the sim cards, and reverse
them. So the 6S goes in the 7+, the 7+ goes in the 6S. Basically a phone
number swap.

What happened was, for some reason, I don't know if the sim tray was
crooked or what, but it wasn't seating  flushed with the bezil of the
phone. So, I slid the tray out all the way into my hand, and really
examined the tray closely with no sim lying in it. What I noticed was,
on the end opisit from what goes first slidden into the phone, there was
this really el cheapo dinky dank little thing that felt like the
protective plastic thin film that would go over the screen of a phone
during packaging to protect it. The best way I can describe it is, it
felt like really really really thin filmy wax paper, or maybe like

really thin cellophan. I was like, what on earth? um, why would

cellophane be on the tray down inside the sim slot stuck to the tray?
Don't tell me at Best buy, they didn't see this and forgot to remove
it.  Well, no worries. Well? yeah, worries! Oopsy doodles, Me bwoke it
weel good! Basically, thinking that was

cellophane, what did little Crissy dumb nut do? You guessed it!  Yank? I
tore the thing right off. I'm like it's just

cellophane, so who cares!



Well? I later found out, so guys with iPhone 7 and 7 pluses, beware of
this, that's not actually

cellophane! Don't pull it off, whatever the heck you do! That film is a
very thin rubbery bumpber/gasket which basically helps the sim card tray
to slide in totally aligned straight/flat. If you tear it off, you just
rendered that sim tray utterly useless.



So long story short, I called Apple Accessibility and told them I was
having issues.  Through describing to them what I did, and what
initially happened before doing so, and what happened now that I did! do
so, they were able to conclude what I'd done, and explained to me about
that little rubber piece. They took my feedback and sent to engineers
regarding this, as to a blind person, that's really kind a a bad way to
make that sim tray. I mean, the tray from my 6S doesn't have one of
those rubber pieces, and it fits both my phones perfectly! So, why add
that bumper? Don't fix it if it ain't a problem to start with. I liked
it better on the 6S, 6S+, 6, and 6S, how there are! no pieces like that
on the tray. It just is what it is, a tray.



They said I'm by far not the first person's who's done this to their
7/7+ tray, and were very very willing to own up to it being their falt
for confusing design, especially if you can't visually see what it is
you're pulling to know what it isn't. They were so sorry for this, that
they agreed even to send me out not 1, but two! 6S doors, and! two 7+
doors. so I'd have some spares. They're not even charging me a penny 
either!




To me, that really shows that they get it. They really do understand how
this potentially is a bigtime problem that needs to be dealt with in
their making assemblyline.

  Verify ping rtt times on both machines.  Yo can use command line ping on both 
 machines, but I believe one uses icnp and the other uses UDP, so if you can 
normalize that somehow that will help your testing. When testing try making 
packet sizes around 1500. Also Arz Technica Sierra uses ECN congestion 
protection which could cause this behavior on older network equipment. 

  Another thing to check, is which version of IP, four or six the connections 
to your remote server or making. You can check this with Nat Stead minus at 
eight but you'll have to search through bunch of other connections.

Can you possibly find a direct link that talks exactly about this, specifically

Great instructions,

Very well written,

Just one note though, the play 5 you describe here is the new one, the 
older one has a some what more rocker like play pause and vol up / down like 
the 1 and 3, they changed it last year for some reason,

Oh and increased the price,

Subject: Re: A question about the Sonos

Yes. Absolutely you can.

1. In the app, near the top of the screen, you'll find a button that is 
labeled with the name of the room that is currently playing. If you've 
grouped multiple rooms, it will be labeled with the name of all grouped 
rooms. For example, in my case, I hear Studio and bedroom. Double tap on 
this button.


2.  Now, in the bottom of the screen, you'll see a button that says room 
settings. Double tap on this.


3.  Now, find the room for the speaker you want to adjust the base and 
trebble. Double tap on it.


4.  In this screen, you should find a few things. Trueplay, which basically 
calebrates the speaker via means of test tones being played. This process is 
100% accessible. It didn't used to be, but I got ahold of them, and worked 
very very extensively with them, and though I cannot clame that it was me 
who made it accessible, I think I probably had a huge part to do with it.
You also under here have settings for compression on or off, reducing 
loudness, and your base/trebble, all of which are accessible.


As for volume, the play5 is a little weird. Let me try explaining this.

Take your hand on the front of the speaker grill on the front face of the 
speaker bezil. In the top center, you're going to feel a raised engraving 
bit of print letters. Note, this only is applicable to the Play5. I'll 
explain the Play 1 and 3 in a second.  OK, so get yourself oriented with 
that emblum. It's going to be magic key to getting this to work.


On the print raised label, move your finger up from the front face bezil 
right to the top of the unit. Let your finger glide off the front of your 
unit over the top edge until it rests right on the top of the speaker right 
there aligned with where that printed label would be on the front speaker 
grill. There is a small little window there. This is a touch pannel, but 
don't worry. This is very very very very very easy once you know where that 
print label is. You're gonna use that as home base to line yourself up.
There are only 3 items on this touch screen, and they are not context 
sensitive. They always no matter what will be the same. They never ever ever 
change. So... on the left side of the window is volume down. On the right 
side is volume up. In the very center is play/pause. So if you can take your 
finger on the front faced print logo, then just slide your finger up off the 
front, over to the top of the unit, your finger should glide right over the 
window on the area you need to touch. This sounds maybe a little tricky, but 
I swear. It's not. It's really easy. I was able in the Best Buy store to 
consistently get this to work the very first try. It's really really not 
hard once you know where that print label is, and no this little trick.


The play 1 and 3's are a little different. On them, there is no touch 
screen. There are physical buttons.


You will notice that you have a long virtical bar on the top of the speaker, 
just a little offset to the left from the bottom center of the top of the 
unit.  Actually, I'm wrong, I just looked at mine. It's not offset. It's 
actually dead smack center. This is the volume. Obviously the bar is a 
rocker button. The top part will turn it up with each press, and the bottom 
part turns it down. Just above this is a small square button. It's about the 
size of the pad of your finger. This is play/pause.


Two things to note. ON the Play5, in the back of the speaker, where your

Firstly you need to setup a sonos system with your device and the sonos

The software gives you two options,
A sonos system with bridge or a sonos system with or to your home wifi

It then takes you through a few steps which pair the player 5 with the 
system.


Have you managed to do this as yet?

Really weird discovery with Transmit FTP

2016-11-13 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, this one surely'll drive you crazy trying to figure out. I know it sure is 
me!

So, I am using the most up to date version of Transmit on my mac mini late 
2012, with El Capitan.

I have a whm/CPanel dedicated server which I'm using for my business.

I've tried logging in via both ftp as well as via SFTP, both as root as well as 
a physical client, and  in both cases am having this issue.

So, any time that I try uploading anything, no matter what I seem to do, it's 
uploading around 8 K a second. I mean, just! absolutely! crawling! Now, get 
this, though. If I use a client on Windows, like say, Filezilla, or maybe my 
favorite, Flash FXP, then, I try transferring that same exact thing, I get 
about 300 to 400 K upstream a second consistently by uploading the exact same 
content even into the exact same remote folder.

I've again tried with both FTP, and with SFTP. I've tried with the Webdisk 
addon, as well as through the actual UI of Transmit itself, and get the same 
results both ways. Furthermore, I've also tried both with, and without passive 
mode, and neither seems to make any difference.

This is just the weirdest thing! You'd not think that one client would transfer 
more slowly than another, would you, if you're using the same exact settings 
from one client to another. Oh, and by the way, this isn't just! my CPanel 
server. This is happening on other private FTP sites I'm a part of, as well.

Chris.

Re: A question about the Sonos

2016-11-13 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
Cristine, congratulations first off on getting it working! Isn't that such a 
great feeling? And, the sound is un! freaking! beatable! and, that's coming 
from an audio engineer, so that's saying something! I still to this day, 
even just on my play 1's can't believe the sound!


Shruggs, you know... The short answer to your question about the mac version 
of the Sonos controller: yes, it can? be done, but, it's a royal pain in the 
ass. Excuse my language. Like you said, there are lots of images, and 
unlabeled buttons. I'm glad that this topic actually came up on the list, as 
I'd like to see you guys write Sonos and express your concerns about this. I 
don't get why they have made it work so well on Windows, iOS, and Android, 
but not OSX. It's definitely very annoying. Alas, the short answer is, yes, 
it can be done, but it's very much hit and miss until you learn what those 
controls are/do. Yeah, theoretically, you could look at the Windows version, 
learn the order of the controls, then move that over to the mac. The problem 
though is, I'm not sure if the controls in tab order on Windows are the same 
order as they appear in VO right and left arrow order on the mac. They 
probably are, but don't count on it. I'm a bit reluctant to tell you this is 
the absolute fact  case.


Some of the buttons have help tags with VO+Shift+H, but not many, 
admittedly. Now, what you could! do, provided someone could sit down with 
you who's sighted, is, you could! in theory, go through those controls and 
images, hit VO+Slash on them, and then label them, but that's really a 
headache, not to mention, not a very viable way to get this working, I'll 
totally agree with you there.


This is why I say, we really need to write Sonos and let them know our 
concerns about this. Trust me. These guys really do care about us, and 
accessibility. My guess is, not many blind people have expressed interest to 
them about making that platform of the app accessible. I agree, they should 
have done so anyway, but the bottom line is, like it or not, they didn't. 
So, we need to voice our opinions. One person, being myself, though I'm a 
tester, isn't going to make them do it. They need a high enough demand. So 
even if you don't have a Sonos system, might I encourage you all to write 
them anyway, and just express your concern in this matter. It really would 
help us users out tremendously!


They're on Twitter:

@Sonossupport

and Facebook.

There's also a contact link on the website, with a phone number, as well as 
a way to e-mail them.

Re: A question about the Sonos

2016-11-13 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland

Yes. Absolutely you can.

1. In the app, near the top of the screen, you'll find a button that is 
labeled with the name of the room that is currently playing. If you've 
grouped multiple rooms, it will be labeled with the name of all grouped 
rooms. For example, in my case, I hear Studio and bedroom. Double tap on 
this button.


2.  Now, in the bottom of the screen, you'll see a button that says room 
settings. Double tap on this.


3.  Now, find the room for the speaker you want to adjust the base and 
trebble. Double tap on it.


4.  In this screen, you should find a few things. Trueplay, which basically 
calebrates the speaker via means of test tones being played. This process is 
100% accessible. It didn't used to be, but I got ahold of them, and worked 
very very extensively with them, and though I cannot clame that it was me 
who made it accessible, I think I probably had a huge part to do with it. 
You also under here have settings for compression on or off, reducing 
loudness, and your base/trebble, all of which are accessible.


As for volume, the play5 is a little weird. Let me try explaining this.

Take your hand on the front of the speaker grill on the front face of the 
speaker bezil. In the top center, you're going to feel a raised engraving 
bit of print letters. Note, this only is applicable to the Play5. I'll 
explain the Play 1 and 3 in a second.  OK, so get yourself oriented with 
that emblum. It's going to be magic key to getting this to work.


On the print raised label, move your finger up from the front face bezil 
right to the top of the unit. Let your finger glide off the front of your 
unit over the top edge until it rests right on the top of the speaker right 
there aligned with where that printed label would be on the front speaker 
grill. There is a small little window there. This is a touch pannel, but 
don't worry. This is very very very very very easy once you know where that 
print label is. You're gonna use that as home base to line yourself up. 
There are only 3 items on this touch screen, and they are not context 
sensitive. They always no matter what will be the same. They never ever ever 
change. So... on the left side of the window is volume down. On the right 
side is volume up. In the very center is play/pause. So if you can take your 
finger on the front faced print logo, then just slide your finger up off the 
front, over to the top of the unit, your finger should glide right over the 
window on the area you need to touch. This sounds maybe a little tricky, but 
I swear. It's not. It's really easy. I was able in the Best Buy store to 
consistently get this to work the very first try. It's really really not 
hard once you know where that print label is, and no this little trick.


The play 1 and 3's are a little different. On them, there is no touch 
screen. There are physical buttons.


You will notice that you have a long virtical bar on the top of the speaker, 
just a little offset to the left from the bottom center of the top of the 
unit.  Actually, I'm wrong, I just looked at mine. It's not offset. It's 
actually dead smack center. This is the volume. Obviously the bar is a 
rocker button. The top part will turn it up with each press, and the bottom 
part turns it down. Just above this is a small square button. It's about the 
size of the pad of your finger. This is play/pause.


Two things to note. ON the Play5, in the back of the speaker, where your 
power cord and your line in jack and what not is, there is a small little 
button. This is the connect button. When connecting the speaker to your 
controller, you'll be asked to hit the connect button. This is the button 
they're talking about.


On the Play1 and Play3, what you're gonna do is, you're gonna press the 
volume up, and the play/pause buttons at the same time, don't hold them in. 
Just press and release. You're not gonna hold the connect button either on 
the play5, just push and release, by the way. No holding necessary.  You 
should hear then a small little chime tone through the speaker, which will 
indicate you did it correctly, and the controller software should then 
progress automatically to the next step in the setup process.


One more thing. When a song is playing, on either the play1 or play 5, as 
well as the play 3, double pressing, or in the case of the play 5, tapping, 
the play pause button will advance to the next song, if anything is in the 
queue. The queue gets slightly more advanced, so I won't cover that here, 
but generally, doing this will get you to the next track.


On iOS, to turn up and down the volume, near the bottom of the screen, 
you'll find a button that says what is playing. Double tap on this to open 
the now playing screen. ON this screen, you'll find an adjuster which you 
can flick up and down on with one finger to raise/lower the volume.


HTH.

Re: A question about the Sonos

2016-11-13 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
You are in good hands, my friend! I use Sonos products so extensively, I'm 
literally a private beta tester. I can't really say much more than that 
however regarding that fact. However, in regards to your question, the Sonos 
app is not very speech friendly with voiceover on the Mac. This said, do you 
have an iOS device, or a Windows device? If so, you have two sollutions, 
both of which are 100% accessible.


First off, you can install the Sonos Controller iOS app. It is totally 
totally accessible! Secondly, you can go to:


http://www.sonos.com

and download the Windows PC version of the Sonos controller. Then, you'll 
also need to go to:


http://www.hartgen.org/sonos

and get the free JAWS scripts that Brian wrote for the controller. They're 
not required, but they'll definitely help tremendously.


Actually, you even have a 3rd option, come to think of it. You also can use 
the controller app through Android e with any of the screen readers over 
there like Talkback, Spiel, Shine, Voice Assist, etc. There might even be an 
app for the Kindle Fire, but not sure. If you have an Amazon Alexa Echo, you 
even can control the speakers with your voice.


You also may want to go to

http://www.mosen.org

Jonathan Mosen has written a book which is very very reasonably priced, and 
very very very worth it, which will explain every single aspect of the Sonos 
system. After reading the book cover to cover in one day, I was so freaking 
hooked/convinced, that I went that very day, practically begging! my 
grandmother to take me to Best Buy to pick up a set of Play1's. It was 
probably one of the best investments I've ever made!


Cristine, if you'd like to do so, this is my work number, but it rings at 
all hours of the day to my home office. I'll be here all tonight, and all 
tomorrow, so feel free to call me if you'd like to discuss this further via 
voice. I'd be tickled to death to help you with this! Again, this number 
already is very much public knowledge, so it's not like I'm giving out 
personal info on list. It's in my signature anyway, so it's not like people 
can't already get it.


You can call me at: 704-256-8010, Then choose option 1 from the IVR. If you 
don't get me, leave me a voicemail with a number, and I'll call you back. 
I'm on eastern time, and there is no time which is most convenient. Just 
call whenever.


Please don't return the speaker though. I cross my heart we can get you up 
and running! If you return, you'll definitely regret in the long run. Hell, 
I'd kill! for a set of play5's, but they weren't in my budget at the time.

Re: Betternet VPN

2016-11-10 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
You've got a point. I think what concerned me is the way the app store 
description has things explained. That said, again, I restate, you do indeed 
make some valid points here.

Actually, the free version works quite well. It locates a server in the 
country where the company is and uses that server when accessing said 
website. It works well for Amazon Video which requires US location server. 
My advice is to try the free version first and see if it will give access to 
what you want. If not (NetFlix has several countries for example), then the 
paid subscription becomes necessary.


So, technically, the basic complete service is free, and it works decently 
well for a free VPN server. Also remember, that type of service has 
significant ongoing costs which they need to cover.

Hi guys. So tonight I was being adventurous and I downloaded an app 
called Betternet which is a VPN service. I wanted to explore the American 
iHeartRadio app because I heard that you can do more things with it that 
it has to offer that the Canadian app doesn't have such as making your 
own radio station and so on. So I'm now connected to a US VPN server but 
I have a few questions. Does anyone know how much cell data will be used 
if I choose to use it out and about? If it uses a lot, where can I change 
which apps use data? I went into cellular data in settings and I didn't 
see it in the list of apps that use cell data. Any help would be 
appreciated. I'm writing to both lists because I don't know if one or the 
other knows too much about VPN's. Thanks.

Ok, Tim, I'll make an exception as is apparently frequently made here. I'll 
respond again. I agree that I expressed frustration and emotion and that it 
wasn't simply a statement of fact. It's the facts as I see them.

Hi,

I disagree.  There was not simply a statement of fact.  Read your own post 
to verify.  You expressed opinions on how you believe the List should be 
run.  You expressed emotion with respect to your frustration that the List 
wasn't being run in the manner you thought it should be.  These, again, are 
not facts, but opinions and the occasional attack on the actions, or lack of

Kawell, we're not attacking him personally. Heck, we're not even attacking 
what he's doing. We're only stating that things could have been handled 
differently. We never said that Mr. Right was a bad boy.

It is most unfair to attack someone who has given up his time to moderate 
the list.  Please bear in mind we all have lives and our lives do not evolve 
around lists as you don't know what priorities that person might have. 
Sorry but I won't stand by listening to someone saying that Mark does not

Re: MODERATOR NOTE: RE: Global Warming

2016-11-10 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
I wasn't going to contribute to this thread, but let me just throw in my two 
cents, then leave it alone after that point... There have been repeated issues 
on this list that I've addressed with Mark. I won't go into the specifics, but 
we'll just leave it to say it took about literally 7 or 8 offenses along with 
an equal amount of off list notes to him before he even sort a publicly 
addressed the matter.

What the matter is isn't important, nor anyone's specific business, but rest 
assured, it took a lot before I saw him finally react. Honestly, anymore, I'm 
not sure how to interpret his reaction. On the one hand I feel he took over, 
but on the other hand, I feel like it was kind of a, "Fine, I addressed it. 
Happy now?" approach. I'm not sure which it was, nor am I going to sit here and 
try speculating either way.

I do however agree that whoever started this initial thread which Mark has 
closed, thank you by the way, never should have occured on a list like this, 
and was totally irrelavent. As much as I hate to say it, I totally have to be 
on GS's side with this, and I unfortunately have to completely echo their 
opinion.  Mark's a great guy, and I truly think he cares, and I don't think 
it's so much he's too leniant, as much as I feel he says he's gonna do 
something, but then, like GS said, he then procrastinates it. I don't know his 
whole reasoning for that, maybe it's legit, maybe it's not. I don't know. I 
just know what I observe, and, what I up to this point have observed is someone 
who you bring a concern to, but then, they'll do anything and everything to not 
have to deal with it unless you sweet talk them, and even then, you may or may 
not get results. It's truly a gamble in a hat.

  My memory of the status cells is a bit old, but I believe there is a way to 
indicate the text attribute of the current cell. 


  Also of use 


  vo-command-o Find font change 
  vo-command-p find plain text 
  vo-command-i find next italic text 
  vo-command-u find next underlined text 
  I don't believe there is a highlighted text option, but vo-HH would help you 
verify.

That’s a really excellent suggestion! I wonder if we somehow can get my braille

something. I’m not talking about it showing the VO cursor; I know you can do 
that. I really need to play with the status cells and see what they can do for 
me. Right now, I’ve got them shut off, but that may not be such a smart move,

  Anyway, I know about hitting VO+T to get the font and text

curious if there is a way I somehow could get Voiceover automatically to tell

This way, I don't have to constantly on each item keep hitting VO+T and

  Any suggestions, guys?

  Uber is offering a $20 credit for a trip to your polling place, Lyft

arrange a ride for you and provide some credits to get to your closest polls.  
the parties are offering rides and volunteer services as well.

  Also, make sure you take advantage of the deals available today to 
voters.  Keep that “I voted” sticker and Krispy Cream will give you a free 
donut, McDonalds and Seven Eleven are giving free coffee, and many small 
businesses are having election day promotions that include discounts or out

  Remember that many service men and women have fought and died for 
your right to vote so let’s not let them down and make sure we take advantage 
of our most powerful expression of our freedom, our right to vote.  Now get out 
there and be safe everyone.

Subject: Re: Here's an interesting question for all iOS users


Hi,

A couple of things to consider.  We often look at the world from our own 
prospective, and forget that there are numerous other scenarios.


1.  Cell signals and Internet access in the US and many other countries is 
quite common and fairly robust, especially in larger centres.  consider 
though rural and more remote locales though.  On the 5 hour drive from Fort 
McMurray to the nearest city, we encounter numerous dead zones.  The towns, 
if you can call them that, do have Internet, but nothing like the cities. 
Many of the farmers still need to use dial up or cell data plans to have 
Internet access, if they can even get a quality cell signal.  There are many 
countries or areas around the world that have a much different Internet 
infrastructure than what many of us are accustomed to.


2.  Internet data charges vary considerably from country to country making 
it important to think economically with respect to data use.  Connecting to 
your computer therefore saves both data usage and money when transferring 
between devices.  Yes, there are WiFi solutions of transferring between 
devices, but they tend to be less reliable than the USB wired solutions at 
this point.


3.  Transferring large files like HD movies is considerably faster through 
USB than it is over the air, so time considerations are also a factor.


I'm mostly just saying that we need to consider outside our own bubble, the 
world is a different beast.
