Hi Richard

I have not tried all settings. I can tell you that you cam use external 
microphone and record in stereo if interface supports it. 

You can rename recordings and also import from various sources

 Hi Ioana,
 Since you mentioned Audio Memos I went and looked at the details. It looks 
 pretty impressive.
 I have a few questions.
 
 Have you used most if not all of the features, like timer recordings, 
 editing, merging, etc?
 I'm just wondering how accessible the more advanced features are.
 Have you used any external microphones with this app?
 They do not mention if you can rename the recordings, is that possible, or 
 are you stuck with the date and time as the file name?
 Thanks for anything you can tell me.
 Richard

time with iPhone to finally take time to look at it. I used Ita a lot, but 
after the description about taking messages and copying and pasting in notes, 
it forced me to use it. By the way, description how to save worked flawlessly

this.
Facebook, Requested your location in the past. Never Button
You want to double tap that and select never.

 I know when some people post a status on Facebook, their friends can see

 automaticaly when the status is updated, but at first some settings must be

 One of my friends told me to open settings/facebook/settings and I should 
 have the following:
 * allow access to Facebook,
 * location button,
 * notifications button,
 * refreshing apps in the background,
 * using mobile data,
 * upload HD video,
 * version number.
 I have only the last two items in facebook settings - * upload HD video, 
 and * version number.
 I have tried a few things to get it fixed - uninstalling and installing 
 facebook, deleting facebook account and I also put the phone to default 
 (factory) settings as if it is a new phone and I took all data and settings 
 from the icloud backup, but nothing helped, I stil don't have all Facebook 
 settings like others do.
 Please, if anyone knows how to figure it out, let me know.
 Thank you for your help in advance.

RE: KNFB Reader dropts to $49.99

2015-01-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
It absolutely is and it is by far the best OCR app for a blind person. Before 
it was out a few very experienced iPhone users were very skeptical, but I think 
even those people are all convinced that KNFB Reader blows everything else out 
of the water. At $50 it is a bargain and if you were able to pick up a couple

$40.

RE: Update is out!

2015-01-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Ron,

 

What you describe definitely does not work for me. If I double tap and hold on 
an app further up on the home screen it will of course go into moving/editing 
mode. If I then press the home key, it will take it back out of that mode and 
double tapping any app whether it’s in the bottom row or not will simply open 
said app since pressing the home button stops moving mode.

Sieghard

Hi all,

 

What I figured out is a combination of what Sieghard was saying and the fact 
that it worked for me for a while but couldn’t figure out what I had done. 

 

If you double tap and hold on an app above the bottom row and then hit the home 
button, you can double tap on an app in the bottom row and it will offer to 
delete it. Say no, press the home button once and double tap the app in the 
bottom row again and you can move it anywhere you want.

 

I don’t call this solving a problem but it’s a work around until they decide to 
fix it.

2015-01-31 Thread Andrea Roveretto

hei!
I have some problems with this game on an iphone 5s.
In some occasions the game does not respond when I try to use my hands 
or my feet.

it seems like the phone does not proces my touches on the screen,.
I think this problem has been partially resolved with the last update 
but its still present and in some levels its really a great problem... I 
am in the level with the cold, the bear and the penguin and I cannot 
paste it because when I clap my hands to scare away the penguin often 
the gesture doe s not work at all... I have closed all other apps.

does anyone has the same problem? does there exists a fix of some kind?

thanks
Andrea

Moving Icons in the Last Row (was: Update is out!)

The problem isn't moving icons *to* that row, though. The problem is that icons

so often, for no reason I can find, it works, but most of the time it doesn't.

RE: Phone Randomly Playing Music

2015-01-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Brandon,

 

I had this issue once and it started on a long flight back from Hong Kong to 
Vancouver. Many times when I stopped my Audible book with the headset remote, 
it would suddenly start playing again or vice versa. I finally realized that 
the headset was at fault. It was a rather old set of Apple Earpods and the 
wires must have come into contact at times creating the signal to start 
playing. When I arrived in Vancouver I stopped by an Apple Store and got a 
replacement headset which you can get for free if you have Apple Care. After 
that my problem was fixed.

 

The only other scenario I can think of would be if you have a bluetooth 
keyboard which is turned on in your backpack and maybe keys are getting pressed 
by accident. The Apple Wireless keyboard is sort of notorious for that since it 
doesn’t have a mechanical on/off switch, just a button which gets easily 
pushed. It is the main reason why I got rid of it in favour of a Logitech K811.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Subject: Phone Randomly Playing Music

 

Hello,

 

I’m having an odd problem on my iPhone 6. I have a set of earphones with a 
built-in microphone and which has the iTunes controls, where if you squeeze the 
mic part of the earphone cord it plays or pauses music. Anyway when I have the 
earphones plugged in, the phone will randomly play music without me touching 
anything. Also sometimes siri will get enabled and I’ll hear the double beep 
that indicates it is listening. Again this is all without me touching anything.

 

Why could this be happening? It is incredibly inconvenient. I like using 
earphones a lot so no one else hears what I am doing and I can have privacy.

Re: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

2015-01-31 Thread Sandratomkins
hi,
given financial constraints, I would like to say this:if you are someone who is 
well practised at aiming the camera,if you are someone who is used to OCR apps 
and getting good results,then, Prizmo, certainly, gives the KNFB reader a run  
For its  money!but it is a little more fussy to use and doesn't have the same 
guidance that the KN FB reader has.textGrabber is also a brilliant app! And it 
has the added attraction of being really very cheap!indeed, particularly with 
envelopes or upsidedown text et cetera,I often flick from KNFB reader to one of 
the above two and get good results!however, I did already owned these two apps 
so it costs me nothing more to do this.One thing is certain though, the KNFB 
reader has enabled many many more people to get passible if not excellent 
results, whereas, before, they simply didn't.so, turning to the original 
question is it worth it?you hath to know yourself and your own capabilities 
to answer this one.if you are not an experienced iPhone/OCR user,then, I think, 
it is worth it especially at this new half price.

just my thoughts, Sandy

Re: Update is out!

2015-01-31 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello Folks,

After reading the thread on this the other day, I decided to try and move an 
app to the row above the doc. At first, I was unsuccessful, but kept on trying 
different solutions. What seemed to work is to move the app to the row above 
and then move it down to the row above the doc. This worked for me and maybe it 
will work for others.

 that it worked for me for a while but couldn’t figure out what I had done.
  
 If you double tap and hold on an app above the bottom row and then hit the 
 home button, you can double tap on an app in the bottom row and it will 
 offer to delete it. Say no, press the home button once and double tap the 
 app in the bottom row again and you can move it anywhere you want.
  
 I don’t call this solving a problem but it’s a work around until they decide

Cardcast with Google ChromeCast Game Accessibility?

iTunes 12.1 for Windows

2015-01-31 Thread Richard Turner
Anyone else stupid enough to have updated to iTunes 12.1?

 

Searching in the app store with this latest version is even worse, if that
were possible.

I am using Window-Eyes and browse mode is completely useless.  All I hear is
top bottom after a search for an app.

If I turn browse mode off and tab, I can get to the links for the app I
searched for, but I can no longer navigate to the description, what's new
section, etc.  

 

Don't think it matters, but this is Win 8.1 and Window-Eyes  9.

 

At least with iTunes 12, I could toggle browse mode on and off and then get
to the app and read the page just like I was in a web page.

Now, the only thing I can do is tab between links.  I cannot get to the
headings or text.

 

It appears Apple is intent on making iTunes less and less accessible on
Windows computers.

 

Richard

Re: Voice Dream Writer Anomalies

2015-01-31 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

for the two-finger double-tap to work, you need to double-tap the Play button 
once so your phone knows this is the app whose audio you want to play. Then you 
should be able to use the two-finger double-tap to start and stop playback of 
that app.

I hope that helps.

Best,
Anna



 On Jan 30, 2015, at 11:37 AM, Alan Lemly wale...@gmail.com wrote:
 
 I purchased Voice Dream Writer yesterday to take advantage of the $7.99 sale 
 price. I'm running it on a 64GB iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.3.
  
 I'm running into some strange behavior with the app and am curious if others 
 are experiencing anything similar. I was playing with the introductory 
 document provided with the app and noticed that when I placed focus on the 
 play button in the bottom center of the screen and then tried double tapping 
 elsewhere on the screen to execute it, that nothing happened. I had to either 
 split tap the play button or double tap precisely on it to start playback. I 
 was under the impression that after giving a button focus, double tapping 
 anywhere on the screen should cause its execution under default iOS VoiceOver 
 rules.
  
 I decided to begin a new test document to check my typing with Writer. I am a 
 long-time Fleksy VO user and admit I'm still looking for something that will 
 let me type as fast as I can with Fleksy VO. I know that Writer is not an app 
 designed for quick typing but it is a writing app so I thought I'd give it a 
 whirl. After getting one sentence typed fairly slowly, I decided to check if 
 I could zip over to Fleksy VO, type out a couple of sentences quickly, and 
 then copy and paste them back into Writer. I discovered that with Writer 
 running, Fleksy VO was pretty much incapacitated. The Fleksy VO keyboard did 
 come up but pressing the keys resulted in no input at all. Fleksy VO was 
 pretty much frozen.
  
 I then tried going to the App Switcher to jump back to Writer and instead of 
 double tapping the Writer button in App Switcher causing it to open as is the 
 normal behavior, it caused Writer to close. This also happened on other App 
 Switcher apps I tried double tapping to open. They all closed as if I had 
 done a 3-finger swipe up on them.
  
 I then tried going to various screens of my apps to launch other apps and it 
 was clear that placing focus on an app icon and executing it was not working 
 as it should under VoiceOver. I was getting similar behavior to what I 
 experienced and previously described with the Writer play button. I had to 
 reboot my phone by holding down the power and home buttons simultaneously to 
 return to proper functioning.
  
 My experience with Writer and Fleksy Keyboard is giving me the feeling that 
 whatever Apple had to do to enable developers to provide third-party 
 keyboards was not fully tested with VoiceOver. When using one of these apps 
 and then experiencing failure of normal VO gestures such as default actions 
 when executing a button and the failure of the normal methods to initiate 
 execution, I am very hesitant to experiment further with these apps. The 
 potential cost is just too high for the marginal benefit of the app. I 
 already deleted an entire important text message thread when trying the 
 Fleksy keyboard because the default open action got stuck on delete when I 
 tried opening a text message thread. I'm wondering how many iOS upgrades or 
 app upgrades it's going to take to get third-party keyboards implemented with 
 VoiceOver functioning properly.
  
 Have others experienced anomalies when using Writer similar or different to 
 what I've described? I know there were several posts about the Voice Dream 
 voices not working with Writer initially but if there were others which 
 discussed other problems, I didn't see them.
  
 Thanks for any comments you can provide.
  
 Alan Lemly

itunes 12.1

2015-01-31 Thread Larry Lumpkin
Looks like Apple really broke itunes in their latest update.  I can't get to
my playlist tree any more.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Re: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

Just an FYI for those considering purchasing the KNFB Reader, the $49.99 is 
only a limited time sale price. So act fast.

Hi all,
Bad news. I cannopt get it to work at all on either my iPhone 4s or iPad Mini 
2. I did what the user guide said but no go. So rather than paying for 
something that might not work like the Stand Scan Pro I will just have to 
accept the loss of what is now £39.99. Not a big deal for some of us but shame 
I missed out on the opportunity to get a refund. I am still in the 90 days

[New post] What’s the optimum way to charge your iPhone?

2015-01-31 Thread christopher hallsworth


What’s the optimum way to charge your iPhone?
by MacDailyNews
[cfsp key=adsense_336x280]What’s the optimum way to charge your phone? 
Simon Hill asks for Digital Trends.

'The sweet spot for Lithium-ion batteries is to keep them charged between 50 
and 80 percent. This allows for the charged ions to continue to work and 
protect the life of your battery,' says Shane Broesky, co-founder of Farbe 
Technik, a company that makes charging accessories. 'Charging your device in 
short spurts throughout the day will give these ions just enough energy to keep 
them going,' Hill reports.

So frequent top ups, rather than one daily charge up is healthier for your 
battery, Hill reports. It’s not convenient, but that’s the optimal way to 
charge your smartphone if you want to ensure the longest life possible... 'Try 
to avoid going from 0 to 100 percent whenever possible, this will start to 
break down your battery and give your device a shorter lifespan.' Shane 
suggests.

Re: iTunes 12.1 for Windows

2015-01-31 Thread Andrea Roveretto

Well it does work with nvda.
I am a user of window-eyes too, but I must say that in the last years 
they are not dooing a good job in general with theyr screen reader.

Often nvda hugely surpasses we, expecially in web content.

Anyone else stupid enough to have updated to iTunes 12.1?

Searching in the app store with this latest version is even worse, if
that were possible.

I am using Window-Eyes and browse mode is completely useless.  All I
hear is “top bottom” after a search for an app.

If I turn browse mode off and tab, I can get to the links for the app I
searched for, but I can no longer navigate to the description, what’s
new section, etc.

Don’t think it matters, but this is Win 8.1 and Window-Eyes  9.

At least with iTunes 12, I could toggle browse mode on and off and then
get to the app and read the page just like I was in a web page.

Now, the only thing I can do is tab between links.  I cannot get to the
headings or text…

It appears Apple is intent on making iTunes less and less accessible on
Windows computers.

RE: Moving Icons in the Last Row (was: Update is out!)

2015-01-31 Thread Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND
I have had some success by moving an app from another page to the page where I 
want to move something out of the bottom row.  If the bottom row is full, 
moving the app to that page seems to put it in the bottom row by default, and 
moves an app out of that row to another page.

Once the app that was originally in the bottom row is now on another page, it 
can be moved where you want, although this can get a bit tricky.

I hope that made sense.

Anyway, I have managed to get apps where I want them, but it is certainly an 
annoying bug.

What I figured out is a combination of what Sieghard was saying and the fact 
that it worked for me for a while but couldn’t figure out what I had done.

If you double tap and hold on an app above the bottom row and then hit the home 
button, you can double tap on an app in the bottom row and it will offer to 
delete it. Say no, press the home button once and double tap the app in the 
bottom row again and you can move it anywhere you want.

I don’t call this solving a problem but it’s a work around until they decide to 
fix it.

It does make sense, and I've resorted to that myself. The only thing is, you 
inevitably wind up with one app out of place: the one you moved to get the last 
one out of the bottom row. Here's hoping that the next update addresses this

 to delete it. Say no, press the home button once and double tap the app in 
 the bottom row again and you can move it anywhere you want.
 
 I don’t call this solving a problem but it’s a work around until they decide 
 to fix it.

iTunes 12

2015-01-31 Thread christopher hallsworth
Hi all,
I am hearing reports that iTunes 12.1 for Windows is not as accessible as it 
should be compared to iTunes 12. So here is one way you can get iTunes 12.0 
back. Go here:
www.oldapps.com http://www.oldapps.com/
Make sure you uninstall iTunes 12.1 and all components before installing iTunes 
12.0. During the installation, mmake sure you tell it not to at least check for 
updates automatically. If you have paid for Ninite Updater ($9.99,
www.ninite.com http://www.ninite.com/
), tell it to ignore iTunes.
I am obviously sorry to hear of this seemingly backward step, so let's hope 
Apple rectifies this in an update to iTunes 12.1 or even iTunes 12.2 or 
whatever the next minor version will be called.

Re: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

2015-01-31 Thread Alex Hall
It should, at least on the iPhone 4S. Have you restarted your phone? Often, if 
a new app is acting strangely or won't open at all, a restart will put things 
right.

Subject: iTunes 12.1 for Windows
Anyone else stupid enough to have updated to iTunes 12.1?

 

Searching in the app store with this latest version is even worse, if that were 
possible.

I am using Window-Eyes and browse mode is completely useless.  All I hear is 
“top bottom” after a search for an app.

If I turn browse mode off and tab, I can get to the links for the app I 
searched for, but I can no longer navigate to the description, what’s new 
section, etc.  

 

Don’t think it matters, but this is Win 8.1 and Window-Eyes  9.

 

At least with iTunes 12, I could toggle browse mode on and off and then get to 
the app and read the page just like I was in a web page.

RE: iTunes 12.1 for Windows

Yes, I can’t check to use iCloud, can’t find my apps, and after having so much

Annoying since I prefer to use the computer for searches and such.

Anyone else stupid enough to have updated to iTunes 12.1?

 

Searching in the app store with this latest version is even worse, if that were 
possible.

I am using Window-Eyes and browse mode is completely useless.  All I hear is 
“top bottom” after a search for an app.

If I turn browse mode off and tab, I can get to the links for the app I 
searched for, but I can no longer navigate to the description, what’s new 
section, etc.  

 

Don’t think it matters, but this is Win 8.1 and Window-Eyes  9.

 

At least with iTunes 12, I could toggle browse mode on and off and then get to 
the app and read the page just like I was in a web page.

Now, the only thing I can do is tab between links.  I cannot get to the 
headings or text…

What’s the optimum way to charge your iPhone?
by MacDailyNews
[cfsp key=adsense_336x280]What’s the optimum way to charge your phone? 
Simon Hill asks for Digital Trends.

'The sweet spot for Lithium-ion batteries is to keep them charged between 
50 and 80 percent. This allows for the charged ions to continue to work and 
protect the life of your battery,' says Shane Broesky, co-founder of Farbe 
Technik, a company that makes charging accessories. 'Charging your device in 
short spurts throughout the day will give these ions just enough energy to 
keep them going,' Hill reports.

So frequent top ups, rather than one daily charge up is healthier for your 
battery, Hill reports. It’s not convenient, but that’s the optimal way to 
charge your smartphone if you want to ensure the longest life possible... 
'Try to avoid going from 0 to 100 percent whenever possible, this will start 
to break down your battery and give your device a shorter lifespan.' Shane 
suggests.

Re: [New post] What’s the optimum way to charge your iPhone?

2015-01-31 Thread Christopher Chaltain
This is the exact same advice I and others have been recommending for 
years with respect to lithium ion batteries. Googling for information on 
lithium ion batteries turns up this advice time and time again. Lithium 
ion batteries do not suffer from the same memory affect as NiCad 
batteries. It's this memory affect that makes it sound advice to use up 
all of the charge in a NiCad battery before recharging it. You 
definitely don't want to do the same thing with lithium ion batteries.


Note that you may still want to zero your battery to reset the battery 
indicator. I don't consider this advice to be contrary to the advice in 
the article below.


Finally, this talks about optimum use. I would not be a slave to the 
advice below. I do follow this advice when it's convenient, but if I'm 
out and about, and I don't have the ability to top off my iPhone, I'll 
still use it because that's why I have it.

 Don’t think it matters, but this is Win 8.1 and Window-Eyes  9.

 At least with iTunes 12, I could toggle browse mode on and off and then
 get to the app and read the page just like I was in a web page.

 Now, the only thing I can do is tab between links.  I cannot get to the
 headings or text…

 It appears Apple is intent on making iTunes less and less accessible on
 Windows computers.

 What’s the optimum way to charge your iPhone?
 by MacDailyNews
 [cfsp key=adsense_336x280]What’s the optimum way to charge your phone?
 Simon Hill asks for Digital Trends.
 
 'The sweet spot for Lithium-ion batteries is to keep them charged between
 50 and 80 percent. This allows for the charged ions to continue to work and
 protect the life of your battery,' says Shane Broesky, co-founder of Farbe
 Technik, a company that makes charging accessories. 'Charging your device in
 short spurts throughout the day will give these ions just enough energy to
 keep them going,' Hill reports.
 
 So frequent top ups, rather than one daily charge up is healthier for your
 battery, Hill reports. It’s not convenient, but that’s the optimal way to
 charge your smartphone if you want to ensure the longest life possible...
 'Try to avoid going from 0 to 100 percent whenever possible, this will start
 to break down your battery and give your device a shorter lifespan.' Shane
 suggests.

Re: How do I save a number that is within a text message as a contact

2015-01-31 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
I would do it the following way: 
1. Open the text message and make sure vo is focussed on the content. 
2. If the number is formatted right it should be a link. You can navigate to it 
by selecting links from the rotor menu. Note that the links option does not 
appear in the rotor unless you have a link in your text message and the focus 
is on it.

3. Flick down and you should land on the phone number. 
5. Double-tap and hold on it and you should get a menu with one of the options 
being add to contacts. Here you should be fine either to create a new one or 
add to an existing one.
If the phone number is not a link it is a bit more tricky. Nothing like the 
good old memory to remember it and mark it down manually in your contacts. Or, 
if it works out that the number is read out in one word, you can perform the 3 
finger quadruple tap to copy last spoken voiceover item to clipboard and paste 
it in the desired contact.

hth,
Ioana

Re: witch Plantronics ear piece is better for noise cancellation and use the m95 or the voyager edge

2015-01-31 Thread Casey

Hi okay now how to you make this ear piece work in either ear?
If you would like to ware it that way or can you not do it with this ear 
piece?

Also what is the best ear tip or hook to use with this unit?
And if you have the hooked attached can you still wear it in either ear 
or then do you have to only pick what ear you would like to use?
And now you have suggested thees apps for the iPhone for plantronics now 
are they free apps or do they cost?
And if they cost to you happen to recall about how much for either or 
both of these apps?
Now I got the little bag of tips that came with mine ear piece so now 
witch one to use so I get A good fit and can use this unit the best way?

Thanks for all the help so far.

Hi,

The battery case plugs in just as the Edge does with a micro SD plug.
The Edge cord as you know has a USB on one end and the micro SD
connection on the other. Plug the Edge into the battery case and plug
the cord into your battery case instead of your Edge. Then plug the USB
into your computer on the other end. As for how long I just plugged mine
in and went to bed but I think they said it will charge in about 90
minutes. There are two apps that work with your edge if you have an
iPhone. If you type Plantronics into the app store you can find them
both with no problems. One I have never used I can’t even remember what
it is for. The other one is for settings and is pretty cool. It does
work with Voice Over.

I would imagine that it would be done by going to the Plantronics web site, 
or perhaps through a downloadable PC client. It wouldn't have anything to do 
with the iPhone or iTunes.

I just purchased the Voyager Legend and have updated to the latest firmware.
Generally, it's working well but I do have one consistent issue when 
attempting to use Siri. I can't get Siri to activate if VoiceOver is 
running. If I turn VO off, Siri works just fine. This is on an iPhone 6 plus 
running IOS 8.3. Any other Legend owners experiencing this? Any other 
anomalies I should be aware of between the Legend and an iPhone 6 running 
IOS 8.x?

Re: KNFB Reader dropts to $49.99

2015-01-31 Thread Joanne Chua
Comparing KNFB Reader or any ocr app on the phone and a dedicated OCR
software with a dedicated scanner on the pc is like comparing either
is better to walk some miles to go to the nearest store or take a bus
there.

For me, there are some limitations for both phone apps and pc
software. If you want the portability of a phone, with rather some 80%
chance of a raather accurate result, then KNFB reader is your choice
of OCR apps on the phone. But, if you have lots of time, and don't
mind turning your computer, and spend some time on scanning and
outputting the document, then of course, a dedicate OCR software that
usually cost around $900 with a decent scanner that cost around $300
will be the way to go.

Put everything about the software, hardware, and the technology aside,
I very much believe that how well the OCR works on the phone is very
much depending on how good your image quality may be. For example, i
was playing on my friend's KNFB Reader on a 5 the other day. Both of
us took the same picture of the same catalog. One of our pictures
showed as no text, and another reads it all from the top to the
bottom. And it was an A4 page with same lighting, on the same table,
etc. The only different is that, he took the picture rather close to
the catalog, with over expose, while mine was about 1 feet away from
the catalog.

 Hi Sandy,


 I was using KNFB Reader this morning to verify the address on an
 envelope before mailing. I knew that the orientation was correct, but the
 app didn't read it and gave me nonsense. I needed to switch to another OCR
 app on the phone and to be honest OpenBook on my PC was the best for this
 task. The KNFB Reader app even crashed one time, so I needed to launch it
 again. I did made sure that all apps were closed from the app switcher. This
 didn't make a difference in getting readable text from KNFB Reader. Thought
 I would just pipe in on my most recent experience.

Hi,

 

Maybe you should describe your problem.  That way, you may be able to get
help.  I have it working well on my 5S and my friend has it going a little
slower but very well on her 4S.  If you are not getting anything at all, is
it possible you could be in the batch scan mode and are just accumulating
pages?

 

There's no reason it shouldn't work.

RE: witch Plantronics ear piece is better for noise cancellation and use the m95 or the voyager edge

2015-01-31 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,

I currently use the Edge. It has about the same quality sound as the Legend
which is more than acceptable and great battery life. I have the little case
that comes with it so it charges up to six hours then I put it back in the
case and swipe my fingers across the case and lay it aside. Sometime later I
come back and it is back up to six hours. I can do this several times before
I need to plug the battery case back in again. The only issue I have is the
little plastic loop that fits behind the ear and is optional is a pain to
get on the Edge. I asked a sighted person to put it on for me and he alleges
that if the loop is on the battery case which extends battery life can't be
used so right now I am not using the behind the ear loop. Now it stays in my
ear without the loop but it is so light that I can barely feel it in my ear
and I keep worrying that I am going to lose it walking around the grocery
store. I use it with both my iPhone and my I D Mate Quest. It sounds great
with both devices.

Hope that helps.

Merv

Searching in the app store with this latest version is even worse, if

I am using Window-Eyes and browse mode is completely useless.  All I
hear is “top bottom” after a search for an app.

If I turn browse mode off and tab, I can get to the links for the app I
searched for, but I can no longer navigate to the description, what’s
new section, etc.

Don’t think it matters, but this is Win 8.1 and Window-Eyes  9.

At least with iTunes 12, I could toggle browse mode on and off and then
get to the app and read the page just like I was in a web page.

Now, the only thing I can do is tab between links.  I cannot get to the
headings or text…

It appears Apple is intent on making iTunes less and less accessible on
Windows computers.

little case that comes with it so it charges up to six hours then I put
it back in the case and swipe my fingers across the case and lay it
aside. Sometime later I come back and it is back up to six hours. I can
do this several times before I need to plug the battery case back in
again. The only issue I have is the little plastic loop that fits behind
the ear and is optional is a pain to get on the Edge. I asked a sighted
person to put it on for me and he alleges that if the loop is on the
battery case which extends battery life can’t be used so right now I am
not using the behind the ear loop. Now it stays in my ear without the
loop but it is so light that I can barely feel it in my ear and I keep
worrying that I am going to lose it walking around the grocery store. I
use it with both my iPhone and my I D Mate Quest. It sounds great with
both devices.

Hope that helps.

iPad and VoiceDream Reader Question

2015-01-31 Thread Emilio Hernandez
Hello everyone,

Can anyone share their experiences of using an iPad with the VoiceDream Reader 
app?
Is the screen real estate worth the expense? Moreover, does the larger screen 
size make the use of VoiceDream more enjoyable when selecting and highlighting 
text?
Welcome any thoughts.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

 hi,
 given financial constraints, I would like to say this:if you are someone who 
 is well practised at aiming the camera,if you are someone who is used to OCR 
 apps and getting good results,then, Prizmo, certainly, gives the KNFB reader 
 a run  For its  money!but it is a little more fussy to use and doesn't have 
 the same guidance that the KN FB reader has.textGrabber is also a brilliant 
 app! And it has the added attraction of being really very cheap!indeed, 
 particularly with envelopes or upsidedown text et cetera,I often flick from 
 KNFB reader to one of the above two and get good results!however, I did 
 already owned these two apps so it costs me nothing more to do this.One 
 thing is certain though, the KNFB reader has enabled many many more people 
 to get passible if not excellent results, whereas, before, they simply 
 didn't.so, turning to the original question is it worth it?you hath to 
 know yourself and your own capabilities to answer this one.if you are not an 
 experienced iPhone/OCR u
 ser,then, I think, it is worth it especially at this new half price.
 
 just my thoughts, Sandy

 It absolutely is and it is by far the best OCR app for a blind person. 
 Before it was out a few very experienced iPhone users were very skeptical, 
 but I think even those people are all convinced that KNFB Reader blows 
 everything else out of the water. At $50 it is a bargain and if you were 
 able to pick up a couple of iTunes gift cards in December for 20% off you 
 would in fact now get it for $40.

 ofcourse they don't have the hints about your position and so on, but, for

Hi Sandy,


I was using KNFB Reader this morning to verify the address on an envelope 
before mailing. I knew that the orientation was correct, but the app didn't 
read it and gave me nonsense. I needed to switch to another OCR app on the 
phone and to be honest OpenBook on my PC was the best for this task. The KNFB 
Reader app even crashed one time, so I needed to launch it again. I did made 
sure that all apps were closed from the app switcher. This didn't make a 
difference in getting readable text from KNFB Reader. Thought I would just pipe 
in on my most recent experience.

RE: witch Plantronics ear piece is better for noise cancellation and use the m95 or the voyager edge

2015-01-31 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,

The battery case plugs in just as the Edge does with a micro SD plug. The
Edge cord as you know has a USB on one end and the micro SD connection on
the other. Plug the Edge into the battery case and plug the cord into your
battery case instead of your Edge. Then plug the USB into your computer on
the other end. As for how long I just plugged mine in and went to bed but I
think they said it will charge in about 90 minutes. There are two apps that
work with your edge if you have an iPhone. If you type Plantronics into the
app store you can find them both with no problems. One I have never used I
can't even remember what it is for. The other one is for settings and is
pretty cool. It does work with Voice Over.

I am curious as to what you gain by upgrading the firmware on a device like

I just purchased the Voyager Legend and have updated to the latest firmware.
Generally, it's working well but I do have one consistent issue when
attempting to use Siri. I can't get Siri to activate if VoiceOver is
running. If I turn VO off, Siri works just fine. This is on an iPhone 6 plus
running IOS 8.3. Any other Legend owners experiencing this? Any other
anomalies I should be aware of between the Legend and an iPhone 6 running
IOS 8.x?

Pedometer App on iOS 8?

2015-01-31 Thread Alan Lemly
I had heard that iOS 8 had a pedometer app built into it. I went into the
Health app and found the Steps section of that but I've been unable to
figure out how to get it to track my steps. All I can see is a place to
manually enter my steps which is not what I'm looking for.

 

Does anyone know if iOS 8 has a pedometer app with it and how to get to and
use it to automatically track steps walked?

 

Thanks for any help.

withc plantronics ear piece is better for noise canselation and use the m95 or the voyager edge

2015-01-31 Thread Casey
Hi I wet to best buy today and purchased the voyager edge but haven't 
used it yet.
But have read some reviews on it and they have said that the voyager 
edge has good noise cancellation and sound good on both ends of A call 
and has good batgter life.
Now I was also thinking about the m95 so does anyone hear have this ear 
piece and if so how do you like it.
Also if you could pick between the voyager edge and the m95 what would 
you select and why?

I haven't used my edge yet but still looking at reviews online for both.
But I would like to hear from people that have used either or both of 
these ear pieces for some advice also.

Facebook settings issue.

2015-01-31 Thread Mária Orovčíková

Hello list,
I have been using Facebook for IOS. I am stil on iphone 4, IOS 7.
I know when some people post a status on Facebook, their friends can see 
the location where they are. My friends told me that the location 
appears automaticaly when the status is updated, but at first some 
settings must be done.
One of my friends told me to open settings/facebook/settings and I 
should have the following:

* allow access to Facebook,
* location button,
* notifications button,
* refreshing apps in the background,
* using mobile data,
* upload HD video,
* version number.
I have only the last two items in facebook settings - * upload HD video, 
and * version number.
I have tried a few things to get it fixed - uninstalling and installing 
facebook, deleting facebook account and I also put the phone to default 
(factory) settings as if it is a new phone and I took all data and 
settings from the icloud backup, but nothing helped, I stil don't have 
all Facebook settings like others do.

Please, if anyone knows how to figure it out, let me know.
Thank you for your help in advance.
With kind regards
Maria

Perhaps you could look under settings/General/privacy/location based services

known on Facebook might be a little bit risky?something to think about anyway…

Maria, go into settings, on your phone, not just in fb. Go to privacy and then
