Re: Hulu App

2017-10-14 Thread Liz Ulrich and LD Hope
Hello! I am having the same issues with HuLu that you are experiencing. I 
talked to a customer support person and he said that in the next update 
problems with voiceover should be resolved. I will believe this when it 
happens. In the meantime, their is a work around. Use the TV App on your phone 
to search for programs. You will then be able to bring up the program on HuLu 
and watch it. I hope this helps. I will be glad when HuLu resolves the 
voiceover issues, and they eventually sort it out.

RE: iPhone 6S

2017-10-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
In any case, the keyboard buddy I assume is a case with keyboard made for the 4 
inch size phones like the 5/5C/5S/SE and therefore it would not fit on a 6S 
which has a 4.7 inch screen.
Richard is correct, if that case is done for whatever reason getting a 
different phone won’t make a difference.

There is no such phone as a 5 SE.
There is the iPhone SE, and there are iPhone 5, 5c and 5s.
assuming you have the iPhone SE, it should be fine by next September.
What does the keyboard not charging have to do with the phone?
You really need to take your phone to an Apple store if you want to have it 
checked out for problems.
Or, at the very least, call Apple Accessibility and have them do the screen 
sharing where they could probably tell you once and for all which phone you 
have.
You could also call Apple sales and get prices on the 6s.
Good luck,

RE: iPhone 6S

2017-10-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Terri,

You keep referring to your iPhone as a 5SE which does not exist.
I think I still don't know what phone you actually have, is it an iPhone 5S or 
an iPhone SE?
If you in fact have an iPhone SE then you basically have a smaller iPhone 6S 
without the 3D touch capability and with a first generation Touch Id sensor, 
the SE has the same A9 processor as the 6S, in fact it was released half a year 
after the iPhone 6S was released, but since it is meant to be a price point 
phone, Apple didn't give it the screen which allows for 3D touch and it didn't 
give it the newer, second generation Touch Id home button.
>From what you said before you don't even have a passcode on your phone hence 
>you don't use Touch Id and therefore it makes no difference whether you have a 
>first or second generation home button.
The iPhone 6S and SE came with iOS 9 preinstalled and both will support at 
least another 2 years worth of iOS updates.
You have iOS 11 this year, you will get iOS 12 next year and iOS 13 in 2019. 
That means between now and when iOS 14 comes out in 2020 (the end of the iOS 13 
cycle) it is another 3 years, you can get plenty of use from your iPhone SE.

If your iPhone is in fact a 5S which was released in 2013 with iOS 7 
preinstalled (it had the first 64 bit processor), then iOS 11 this year may be 
it's last update, but who knows, it could still support iOS 12 next year, we 
won't know until at least next June whether that is the case.
Regardless whether you have a 5S or an SE, I would usually advise strongly 
against buying a 6S now because you are buying a phone which is already two 
years old, much better to look for an iPhone 7 or simply wait until next year, 
if you have an SE then you can definitely wait at least one or maybe even two 
years. You often point out you can't spend that much and are on a fixed income, 
so stop buying Android phones, iPads, again an iPhone now maybe another 
iPhone... that is a total waste of money. If you have an iPhone SE it will do 
anything you want and in a year or two every single iPhone will have an OLED 
screen, in two years you can get an iPhone 8 with OLED screen and wireless 
charging for the same price as you could buy a 6S now and unless you have the 
money to spend there is just no reason whatsoever to upgrade every year or even 
two. I bought a 6S Plus two years ago and I am keeping it for a third year 
because the phone works great and while wireless charging is sort of cool and 
the A11 Bionic chip is also cool and most likely very fast it just is not worth 
it for me. As these phones get more and more mature technology just does not 
jump ahead that much. If I really wanted the coolest I'd buy an iPhone X, but I 
don't have $1,500 this year because of lots of other expenses and I know in a 
year I can get the same tech for a few hundred Dollars cheaper.

If you want to really know what phone you have, do this:
1. Go to Settings > General > About
2. Swipe until you hear "Model" followed by a number most likely it starts with 
a "N".
3. Double tap on that and it will change to the so-called "A number", it is the 
letter "A" followed by 4 numbers.

If you have a 5S (released in the fall of 2013), it will have one of the 
following model numbers:
A1453, A1457, A1518, A1528, A1530, A1533.
Really all you need to check if the first part is A14 or A15
The iPhone 5S came in 16, 32 and 64 Gb
It came in colours Space gray, silver and gold

If you have an iPhone SE (released in the spring of 2016) , it will have one of 
the following model numbers:
A1662, A1723, A1724
Again, just look at the first part, either A16 or A17.
The iPhone SE came in 16, 32, 64 and 128 Gb versions
It came in colours Space gray, silver, gold and rose gold

If your model starts with A14 or A15 you have a 5S, if your model starts with 
A16 or A17 it is an iPhone SE.
The model or "A number" is also on the back cover of each phone so if you can't 
find it in Settings > General > About just ask a sighted friend to tell you 
what it says on the back of the phone.

Regards,
Sieghard

Both were updated last week.

If a message comes into outlook the icon says one new message.

If I delete the message from the pc outlook icon still says 1 message.

If I go into outlook it updates and says there are zero messages.

RE: iPhone auto answer

2017-10-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I assume they reduced the time from 20 seconds to 6 or 8 or 10 so the auto 
answer kicks in before the voice mail.
I guess the only other option is to increase the number of rings until voice 
mail picks up, depending on the carrier there might be a command which allows 
you to do this or you might be able to call and ask your carrier if they can 
adjust it.

So I helped her get into the settings, accessibility,
And then into iPhone auto answer,

We set the phone to automatically answer after 20 seconds,
However, the phone doesn’t answer, the call goes into the answering machine.
The phone rings, a few times, however it doesn’t auto answer.
However, if she swipes or tap to answer things work just fine.

Is there a setting which I’m missing to be changed?

iPhone 6S

2017-10-14 Thread Terri Stimmel
Hello everyone,


About how much does a 6S cost?

And by this coming September, will my 5SE basically be no good anymore?


I am asking this, because I discovered today that my Boxwave Buddy 
keyboard doesn't seem to be able to charge anymore. I am not sure why, 
or what could have happened. But I have tried 3 different times to 
charge it, today.


So if I purchase an 6S, I want it unlocked. Is this where they started 
to increase the memory? Or did that start with 7?

I know the more memory I want, the more the phone is likely to cost.


Any thoughts and suggestions will be appreciated.


Thank you,


Terri

RE: Apple Tv 3rd Generation not responding

2017-10-14 Thread Larry Lumpkin
Gen. Try these instructions:


Apple TV (3rd generation)
1.  To return to the main menu, press the lower-left button (Menu) 
repeatedly until you hear a stop sound.
2.  Press Down once.
3.  To highlight Settings, press Right repeatedly until you hear a stop 
sound. If you changed the layout of the main menu, you might not have Settings 
here. Use the arrow buttons on your remote to highlight Settings.
4.  Press Select twice.
5.  Press Down repeatedly until you hear a stop sound.
6.  Press Up four times. Accessibility should be highlighted.
7.  Press Select twice. VoiceOver should turn on and begin reading the 
content on your Apple TV screen.

Subject: Apple Tv 3rd Generation not responding

hi all of a sudden my Apple TV third generation is not responding no sound no 
VoiceOver know nothing.  I have unplugged it twice and plugged it back in and 
no change.  Other then plugging it into a computer does anyone have any other 
suggestions of what might cause this and what can be done to resolve the 
situation.
I thought it might be the batteries in the remote so decided to install the 
remote app on my phone but of course it will not let me add the Apple TV 
because I am assuming Bluetooth is off so it won't recognize it.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Noe,
 
First of all, you are running iOS 11.0.3 not 11.3.
Considering you asked about the “Null” thing when deleting messages I was 
pretty certain you were on iOS 11 because that is a bug and there is nothing 
you can do except wait until iOS 11.1 comes out where this will be fixed. You 
could go ahead and go to http://beta.apple.com and register your device for the 
iOS 11.1 beta program, after you do this and install the provisioning profile 
you can go to Settings > General > Software Update and download/install the iOS 
11.1 Beta. If you don’t want to do all this it shouldn’t be nmore than maybe 3 
or so weeks before it goes live.
In the meantime just delete text messages by tapping the Edit button at the top 
right, then double tap each message you want to delete to select it, then find 
the Delete button at the bottom.
Alternatively, if you delete with the rotor and end up with the “Null” items, 
just close the Messages app in the app switcher, after you reopen it these Null 
entries will be gone.

Sieghard

Gerardo,

I don't have any ideas for addressing your issue transferring your downloaded 
BARD zipped book to BARD Mobile from your Dropbox folder provided you followed 
the steps I posted.

You can transfer a downloaded BARD book from your computer to the BARD Mobile 
app using iTunes 12.7 and I think it's a bit easier than under earlier versions 
of iTunes. Launch iTunes and connect your iPhone to your computer and place 
focus on your iPhone and tap enter. Navigate to the Summary tab and tap the F 
key to move to file sharing. Tap your F6 key and you'll jump to the file 
sharing portion of the screen where the apps supporting it are listed below. 
Tab until focus is on your list of apps and down arrow to the BARD Mobile app. 
Tab until the Add File has focus and press enter to navigate to the folder 
containing your BARD zip file. After you finish this process, the book should 
be in your audiobooks library within your BARD Mobile app.

Good luck.

Chris,



Here are the instructions I just got to work to transfer a zipped BARD book in 
a Dropbox folder to the BARD Mobile app:



  1.  Open Dropbox on your iDevice and navigate to the appropriate folder 
containing your BARD book zip file.
  2.  Place focus on the book you want to transfer and double tap.
  3.  A new screen opens and if you touch the middle of it, Voiceover will 
announce something like "zip files can't be previewed" which you can ignore. 
Touch the upper right of the screen where a button called more actions is. You 
don't want it but swipe left once and focus should be placed on a share button 
which you should double tap.
  4.  At the very bottom of the screen is an unlabeled button which simply says 
button on my iPhone 7. Double tap when it has focus.
  5.  A share sheet will open and you should swipe right until you hear open in 
and then double tap.
  6.  You'll hear an announcement saying "exporting" which might take some time 
to clear depending on the size of the book. You'll hear a sort of burble sound 
when it is done and another share sheet will appear on the screen which you 
should swipe right on until you hear "copy to BARD Mobile" and then double tap.
  7.  Go to your BARD Mobile bookshelf and the transferred book should be in 
its proper place such as audiobooks.



I'm glad this still works but I must admit that it seems less intuitive and 
less accessible than it did in prior versions of iOS.

Thanks Alan for the update.  I am still running ios 10.  I am waiting on ios 
11.1 before updating.

It might even be ios 11.03, because I seen a few different apps that have been 
broken with this current update.  That is really strange that you get that

Dropbox.  Hopefully Dropbox will address this issue in a future update.

Hey Siri, Google Assistant is winning the AI game and it's not even close
You might have missed the Apple references during last week's Google Pixel 2
event, but they were there. There was VP of Product Management Mario Queiroz
telling the crowd, "We don't set aside better features for the larger
devices." Or pointing out that "even iMessages" would be transferred over
when you decide to switch. And let's not forget the woman taking a big bite
out of an apple during the Pixel 2's intro video.
In fact, it seemed like every new Google product released last week had a
singular message seemingly aimed squarely at Apple. Google might have a long
way to go before it starts selling iPhone-like numbers of Pixel phones, but
there is one important area where it's firmly in the lead, and it has
nothing to do with bezels or beats. It's about intelligence.
At its recent iPhone X event, Tim Cook pulled out Steve Jobs's old Wayne
Gretzky quote about skating to where the puck is going, but there's only one
company that's thinking forward right now and it's not Apple-it's Google.
New hardware might have been the reason for the event, but machine learning
was the strongest undercurrent, and the message Google sent was clear: Our
AI is better than your AI.
Brains before beauty
Google CEO Sundar Pichai kicked off the the Made by Google event by talking
about his favorite topic: machine learning. It's not enough that Google
makes uncannily accurate search algorithms anymore. Google is using its AI
smarts to make its products more responsive and adaptable to each user's
lifestyle.
 Google
Google Home Mini will put Google Assistant in every room of your house.
It's not about specs (although the Pixel phones have really good ones) or
design (although the Google Home Max will look good in any room). In fact,
none of Google's new products are all that interesting on the surface, but
what's inside is leaps and bounds ahead of what Apple is doing with Siri and
iPhone X. It's about smarts, and Google has integrated Google Assistant and
machine learning into every one of its devices in a, dare I say it,
Apple-like way.
There's the impulse-buy Google Home Mini and the high-fidelity Max to put
Assistant in every room of your house. Active Edge on the Pixel lets you
squeeze the sides of your phone to launch Assistant. And the
Assistant-powered Pixel Buds feature a remarkable live translation feature.
Google's latest products are designed from the inside out to be smarter than
they are pretty, a big bet that consumers are tired of good-looking gadgets
that put form before function. And if it's right, Apple could be playing
catch-up for years to come.
Conversations, not commands
Apple's first home AI speaker won't hit shelves until December, but Google
already has three of them. When it was announced in June, HomePod appeared
to have an advantage over Google Home and Amazon Echo with its
high-fidelity, room-sensing smarts, but now Google Home Max has landed, and
it might be even better.
 Apple
HomePod intelligently scans your room to deliver the perfect sound.
Like HomePod, Google Home Max uses machine learning to analyze your space to
deliver optimal sound, but Google's method gets more granular and fine-tunes
the sound based on the song you're listening to as well as adjusting based
on Max's surroundings. But if they're even when it

Good luck.

Subject: And with iTunes 12.7? Re: Using Dropbox to transfer books from 
computer to Iphone's Bard Mobile app?

 

Using an iPhone 5S with latest iOS, tried on a 118 Mb book, but no go! I left 
it alone for nearly 45 minutes at the "Exporting book) after having selected 
"Copy to Bard Mobile" but nothing! I'd check on Bard Mobile's Bookshelf, but 
nothing was on there! Any ideas? Also has anyone tried with iTunes 12.7 to see 
if one can still import books to Bard Mobile?

Chris,

 

Here are the instructions I just got to work to transfer a zipped BARD book in 
a Dropbox folder to the BARD Mobile app:

 

1.  Open Dropbox on your iDevice and navigate to the appropriate folder 
containing your BARD book zip file.

2.  Place focus on the book you want to transfer and double tap.

3.  A new screen opens and if you touch the middle of it, Voiceover will 
announce something like "zip files can't be previewed" which you can ignore. 
Touch the upper right of the screen where a button called more actions is. You 
don't want it but swipe left once and focus should be placed on a share button 
which you should double tap.

4.  At the very bottom of the screen is an unlabeled button which simply 
says button on my iPhone 7. Double tap when it has focus.

5.  A share sheet will open and you should swipe right until you hear open 
in and then double tap.

6.  You'll hear an announcement saying "exporting" which might take some 
time to clear depending on the size of the book. You'll hear a sort of burble 
sound when it is done and another share sheet will appear on the screen which 
you should swipe right on until you hear "copy to BARD Mobile" and then double 
tap.

7.  Go to your BARD Mobile bookshelf and the transferred book should be in 
its proper place such as audiobooks.

 

I'm glad this still works but I must admit that it seems less intuitive and 
less accessible than it did in prior versions of iOS.

Thanks Alan for the update.  I am still running ios 10.  I am waiting on ios 
11.1 before updating.

It might even be ios 11.03, because I seen a few different apps that have been 
broken with this current update.  That is really strange that you get that 
result with the export button.  Maybe the current ios update broke something in 
Dropbox.  Hopefully Dropbox will address this issue in a future update.

 

Thanks again,

Hi listers,
 
Sorry if this has been asked before, but can anyone tell me how to get rid
of the following rather annoying messages with I O S?
 
1.  When unlocking my iPhone, how do I disable the message that says,

2.  When deleting messages, how do I get rid of the blank message icon

Thanks.

Macworld - Wednesday, October 11, 2017 at 4:00 AM
Hey Siri, Google Assistant is winning the AI game and it's not even close
You might have missed the Apple references during last week's Google Pixel 2
event, but they were there. There was VP of Product Management Mario Queiroz
telling the crowd, "We don't set aside better features for the larger
devices." Or pointing out that "even iMessages" would be transferred over
when you decide to switch. And let's not forget the woman taking a big bite
out of an apple during the Pixel 2's intro video.
In fact, it seemed like every new Google product released last week had a
singular message seemingly aimed squarely at Apple. Google might have a long
way to go before it starts selling iPhone-like numbers of Pixel phones, but
there is one important area where it's firmly in the lead, and it has
nothing to do with bezels or beats. It's about intelligence.
At its recent iPhone X event, Tim Cook pulled out Steve Jobs's old Wayne
Gretzky quote about skating to where the puck is going, but there's only one
company that's thinking forward right now and it's not Apple-it's Google.
New hardware might have been the reason for the event, but machine learning
was the strongest undercurrent, and the message Google sent was clear: Our
AI is better than your AI.
Brains before beauty
Google CEO Sundar Pichai kicked off the the Made by Google event by talking
about his favorite topic: machine learning. It's not enough that Google
makes uncannily accurate search algorithms anymore. Google is using its AI
smarts to make its products more responsive and adaptable to each user's
lifestyle.
 Google
Google Home Mini will put Google Assistant in every room of your house.
It's not about specs (although the Pixel phones have really good ones) or
design (although the Google Home Max will look good in any room). In fact,
none of Google's new products are all that interesting on the surface, but
what's inside is leaps and bounds ahead of what Apple is doing with Siri and
iPhone X. It's about smarts, and Google has integrated Google Assistant and
machine learning into every one of its devices in a, dare I say it,
Apple-like way.
There's the impulse-buy Google Home Mini and the high-fidelity Max to put
Assistant in every room of your house. Active Edge on the Pixel lets you
squeeze the sides of your phone to launch Assistant. And the
Assistant-powered Pixel Buds feature a remarkable live translation feature.
Google's latest products are designed from the inside out to be smarter than
they are pretty, a big bet that consumers are tired of good-looking gadgets
that put form before function. And if it's right, Apple could be playing
catch-up for years to come.
Conversations, not commands
Apple's first home AI speaker won't hit shelves until December, but Google
already has three of them. When it was announced in June, HomePod appeared
to have an advantage over Google Home and Amazon Echo with its
high-fidelity, room-sensing smarts, but now Google Home Max has landed, and
it might be even better.
 Apple
HomePod intelligently scans your room to deliver the perfect sound.
Like HomePod, Google Home Max uses machine learning to analyze your space to
deliver optimal sound, but Google's method gets more granular and fine-tunes
the sound based on the song you're listening to as well as adjusting based
on Max's surroundings. But if they're even when it comes to sound, the real
difference-maker is Google Assistant.
Apple has improved Siri's speech patterns in iOS 11, but for the most part,
its AI ambitions have been relatively conservative. Google Assistant isn't
just better at recognizing what you're saying, it's more contextual and
conversational, which leads to an all-around better experience. And with the
new routines feature, you'll be able to combine several tasks (like shutting
the lights, setting an alarm, and activating your security system) with a

If you swipe to it and you hear “Family Sharing” followed by a name that means 
you have family sharing set up and the name will probably be that of your wife, 
at least that is how it is for me.

If it’s not set up double tapping on it should guide you through it, I have no

The phone rings, a few times, however it doesn’t auto answer.

However, if she swipes or tap to answer things work just fine.

 

Is there a setting which I’m missing to be changed?

Before iOS 11 when I tapped on the voice mail tab (this is regular voice mail, 
not visual voice mail) it directly dialed and connected to my voice mail.
In iOS 11 double tapping on the voice mail tab doesn’t do this any more, you 
have to find and double tap again on a button on the screen which Voiceover

Not sure if that is his problem, if it is not then you would need to provide

RE: iPhone auto answer

2017-10-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Exactly, if voice mail or the answering machine picks up sooner than 20 seconds 
then of course that has priority.

Hello,

Just taking a stab at this. I suspect you set the timer past the time the

We set the phone to automatically answer after 20 seconds,
However, the phone doesn’t answer, the call goes into the answering machine.
The phone rings, a few times, however it doesn’t auto answer.
However, if she swipes or tap to answer things work just fine.

Is there a setting which I’m missing to be changed?

RE: Family sharing

2017-10-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Family Sharing is in the first Settings group, the one which should say your 
name followed by Apple Id, iCloud and iTunes and App Store.
If you swipe to it and you hear “Family Sharing” followed by a name that means 
you have family sharing set up and the name will probably be that of your wife, 
at least that is how it is for me.
If it’s not set up double tapping on it should guide you through it, I have no 
idea about the steps involved any more since I set it up a couple of years ago 
and haven’t touched it since.

Sieghard

iOS 11 lets you turn off iPhone or iPad without the power button

2017-10-14 Thread Mary Otten

iOS 11 lets you turn off iPhone or iPad without the power button
AppleInsider

 Among the lesser known features included in Apple's latest iOS 11 is a new 
software function that lets users turn off their device without touching a 
physical button, handy in the case of random hardware failures and other 
glitches.

 

While not the most useful feature, a software-based shutdown option is a 
welcome addition to Apple's mobile operating system.

Since the inception of iOS, users have been forced to rely on an iPhone or 
iPad's power button, referred to by Apple as the sleep/wake, to initiate the 
shutdown sequence. A long press and hold gesture is normally used to bring up 
the power off screen, though other methods can be used in emergency situations.

For example, simultaneously pressing and holding the sleep/wake and home button 
— on iPhone models without force sensitive home buttons — will reset the device.

On iPhone 7, Apple introduced a static, non-moving home button that use 
force-sensing components to work, similar in function to 3D Touch displays. 
Without a mechanical home button, Apple changed the reset procedure to 
incorporate the volume down button, meaning users simply had to squeeze both 
sides of their handset to force restart.

Until now, Apple's shutdown and reset methods relied on mechanical buttons, but 
iOS 11 brings a new software option into play. This can be especially useful if 
an iPhone or iPad's sleep/wake, home or volume button is broken or otherwise 
inoperable. Additionally, the function might serve as an accessibility feature 
for users who are unable to grasp their device or operate physical buttons.

Here's how to do it:



Step 1. Navigate to the Settings app.

Step 2. Tap on General and scroll down to the bottom of the menu.

Step 3. Tap on the Shut Down option highlighted in blue font. The usual iOS 
shutdown screen will immediately appear.

Step 4. Slide the large power button to the right along the slide to power off 
track to shut down your device. Alternatively, you can cancel the action by 
pressing the X button at the bottom of the screen.

Hulu App

2017-10-14 Thread Kelly Ford
Hello,

What sort of success have people had using the Hulu app with VoiceOver?  I can 
make some selections but when it gets down to the most critical, I do not seem 
to be able to activate items.

For example, I can select the browse tab and then networks. At that point there 
is a list of categories such as live entertainment sports and such. But when I 
try and activate one of those items, which would lead to networks under that 
category, double tapping does nothing.


As another example, I can activate the my stuff tab but then the categories of 
items under that are not able to be activated with a double tap using voiceOver

iPhone auto answer

2017-10-14 Thread David Whitehead
Hello;

 

A friend of mine wanted to set her iPhone auto answer,

So I helped her get into the settings, accessibility,

And then into iPhone auto answer,

 

We set the phone to automatically answer after 20 seconds,

However, the phone doesn't answer, the call goes into the answering machine.

The phone rings, a few times, however it doesn't auto answer.

However, if she swipes or tap to answer things work just fine.

 

Is there a setting which I'm missing to be changed?

Re: Receiving Text Messages on Apple Watch Series 3

2017-10-14 Thread Deb Lewis
When I get a message, if I'm quick, I can just tap the screen and it's
available to read. If I'm not quick enough or doing something else, I
have to open the notification center on the watch to read it. But it's
often easy to get them by just tapping the face as if you were
checking for the time. As far as I know, the face choice doesn't have
any impact on this. But I think the only two faces worth using are
simple and utility. So I'm probably not the one to ask about that.

Hi Jim,

The StandScan Pro was the first scanning stand and was brilliant at the time.
It doesn’t matter if the phone is in a case or not as the key is having the 
camera over the whole in the top of the stand for scanning the page in the 
bottom of the stand.
The stand is tricky to set up and is a bit flimbsy as it is made out of 
cardboard, though it is also very light weight and folds down  quite thin.

The power supply or battery pack runs the LED lights so yu have consistent 
lighting, which is its unique feature.  If yu are going to go with this one, 
get the Power bundle, that way yu get the AC adapter and battery case for 8 
double A batteries so yu can use it when not around an AC outlet.

However, for a lot less money, I prefer the Fopydo Scanning Stand.  It is made 
from corrigated  plastic, so much more durable and has such an open design that 
lighting is seldom an issue and it too can be used with or without a case on 
the phone.  Plus, the Fopdydo can be used with an iPad Mini as it is sturdy 
enough to hold the weight.
I have the descriptions and links to the various stands on my web page at:

Can it be used when your iPhone is in a case?  Mine’s a very lightweight case,

Good afternoon,

I’m seriously considering getting a StandScan Pro to use with my iPhone, 
especially with such scanning apps as the KNFBReader.  I’d like to know 
people’s thoughts on it.  How easy is it for a totally blind person to not only 
use but also to assemble and disassemble?  I know it comes with a power supply 
or a battery pack.  Do you recommend one over the other?
I figured a tool like this would allow me to take much better pictures of 
things than what I currently take.
If you don’t like the StandScan, what would you use instead that would give me 
the same results?
Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Jim

Re: Force Touch With Voiceover on Apple Watch

2017-10-14 Thread Deb Lewis
Yes, just press hard. The watch will vibrate and make a series of
sounds when you've activated whatever force touch is going to give you
at that point. One I use regularly is to go into activity, force touch
on the per centages for move, exercise and standing. You'll get the
weekly summary and the option to change your move goal. Or, force
touch on the time and you can change which face is showing. To go
ahead and keep your current face, just press the crown. It's a pretty
cool feture.

Why you need to upgrade from this older version of Windows 10 - CNET

2017-10-14 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,  

I am cross-posting this to both the V iPhone and Mac Visionaries mailing
lists for those who, like me, use both Windows and Mac.

Mark

Why you need to upgrade from this older version of Windows 10 - CNET


CNET How To - Thursday, October 12, 2017 at 2:00 AM
Why you need to upgrade from this older version of Windows 10 - CNET
If you have refused Microsoft's Windows 10 updates for the past couple of
years, it's now time to upgrade. Microsoft announced that it is no longer
rolling out security and quality updates to Windows 10 version 1511, which
was released nearly two years ago in November 2015.
What's a quality update?
There are two types of Microsoft updates: feature updates and quality
updates. Feature updates add new features and functionality and are
generally released twice a year. Quality updates provide security and
reliability fixes and are released monthly -- typically on what is known as
Patch Tuesday, the second Tuesday of every month. When Microsoft says that
Windows 10 version 1511 will no longer receive security and quality updates,
it's just being redundant; security fixes come by way of quality updates. 
Does it matter if I'm running Windows 10 Home or Pro?
It does not. The end of service for Windows 10 version 1511 affects not only
both Windows 10 Home and Pro editions but also Windows 10 Education and
Enterprise editions.
How do I check which version of Window 10 I have?
In the search box on the taskbar, type winver and hit Enter. This opens the
About Windows window that tells you which version of Windows 10 you are
running. If it listed as Version 1511 (or, gasp!, earlier), then it's time
to update.
How do I update?
Open the Settings app and choose Update & security. Next, choose Windows
Update from the left column and then click the Check for updates button. Or,
if an update is sitting there waiting for you, click the Restart now button
to restart your PC and install the update. Alternatively, you could wait
until next week and install Windows 10 Fall Creators Update when it's
released on October 17.
 
Now Playing: Watch this: 10 quick ways to speed up Windows 10 
3:27 
And if I refuse?
Well, your computer will continue to work but you will no longer receive
updates to patch up any holes that might leave you open to future security
vulnerabilities. You will be operating, as they say, without a net.

RE: Advice on StandScan Pro

Subject: RE: Advice on StandScan Pro

 

Hi Jim,

 

The StandScan Pro was the first scanning stand and was brilliant at the time.

It doesn’t matter if the phone is in a case or not as the key is having the 
camera over the whole in the top of the stand for scanning the page in the 
bottom of the stand.

The stand is tricky to set up and is a bit flimbsy as it is made out of 
cardboard, though it is also very light weight and folds down  quite thin.

 

The power supply or battery pack runs the LED lights so yu have consistent 
lighting, which is its unique feature.  If yu are going to go with this one, 
get the Power bundle, that way yu get the AC adapter and battery case for 8 
double A batteries so yu can use it when not around an AC outlet.

 

However, for a lot less money, I prefer the Fopydo Scanning Stand.  It is made 
from corrigated  plastic, so much more durable and has such an open design that 
lighting is seldom an issue and it too can be used with or without a case on 
the phone.  Plus, the Fopdydo can be used with an iPad Mini as it is sturdy 
enough to hold the weight.

I have the descriptions and links to the various stands on my web page at:

One question to add to my other questions regarding the StandScan Pro.

Can it be used when your iPhone is in a case?  Mine’s a very lightweight case, 
but I didn’t know if it would get in the way of scanning a picture.

Thanks again.

Subject: Advice on StandScan Pro

 

Good afternoon,

 

I’m seriously considering getting a StandScan Pro to use with my iPhone, 
especially with such scanning apps as the KNFBReader.  I’d like to know 
people’s thoughts on it.  How easy is it for a totally blind person to not only 
use but also to assemble and disassemble?  I know it comes with a power supply 
or a battery pack.  Do you recommend one over the other?

I figured a tool like this would allow me to take much better pictures of 
things than what I currently take.  

If you don’t like the StandScan, what would you use instead that would give me 
the same results?

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

 

Jim

RE: How to Pin Notes in iOS for Easy Note Access

2017-10-14 Thread Richard Turner
It is part of the Actions rotor.
Touch the note you want to pin to the top of the list and flick down with one 
finger.  The first option will be pin note.
The word pin will be spoken at the end of the title of the note, which is 
VoiceOver simply reading the icon.

HTH,

Does the ease with which you can read an incoming text message or
notification on the Apple watch vary according to which clock face you have
downloaded? I would love the convenience of being able to read incoming
notifications on my watch just by pressing the rectangular button, but new
notifications don't seem to be there when I do. Am I doing something wrong?
Does anyone have any tips or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Using an iPhone 5S with latest iOS, tried on a 118 Mb book, but no go! I left 
it alone for nearly 45 minutes at the "Exporting book) after having selected 
"Copy to Bard Mobile" but nothing! I'd check on Bard Mobile's Bookshelf, but

  Chris,

   

  Here are the instructions I just got to work to transfer a zipped BARD book 
in a Dropbox folder to the BARD Mobile app:

   

  1.  Open Dropbox on your iDevice 
and navigate to the appropriate folder containing your BARD book zip file.

  2.  Place focus on the book you 
want to transfer and double tap.

  3.  A new screen opens and if you 
touch the middle of it, Voiceover will announce something like "zip files can't 
be previewed" which you can ignore. Touch the upper right of the screen where a 
button called more actions is. You don't want it but swipe left once and focus 
should be placed on a share button which you should double tap.

  4.  At the very bottom of the 
screen is an unlabeled button which simply says button on my iPhone 7. Double 
tap when it has focus.

  5.  A share sheet will open and 
you should swipe right until you hear open in and then double tap.

  6.  You'll hear an announcement 
saying "exporting" which might take some time to clear depending on the size of 
the book. You'll hear a sort of burble sound when it is done and another share 
sheet will appear on the screen which you should swipe right on until you hear 
"copy to BARD Mobile" and then double tap.

  7.  Go to your BARD Mobile 
bookshelf and the transferred book should be in its proper place such as 
audiobooks.

   

  I'm glad this still works but I must admit that it seems less intuitive and 
less accessible than it did in prior versions of iOS.

  Thanks Alan for the update.  I am still running ios 10.  I am waiting on ios 
11.1 before updating.

  It might even be ios 11.03, because I seen a few different apps that have 
been broken with this current update.  That is really strange that you get that 
result with the export button.  Maybe the current ios update broke something in 
Dropbox.  Hopefully Dropbox will address this issue in a future update.

   

  Thanks again,

   

  Chris

button which is just to the left of the more actions button, nothing happens. 
Very curious. I don't know if this is something we lost because of iOS 11 but 
I'm suspecting so.

Hello, no, but on 3D Touch capable devices it's just wonderful to clear all old 
notifications in one go thanks to a new custom action in Cover Sheet, the new 
name for what was the Notification Centre. Just focus on the "clear 
notifications in this section", flick up with one finger, perform a one finger 
double tap and watch them all magically disappear.

Most of  the news alerts have a sound to draw your attention. In earlier 
versions, the alert would read without you having to touch the phone. Under the 
current version I have to either swipe the screen to read the message, or lock 
and unlock the screen to get it to speak. when it speaks it speaks everything. 
I am assuming that this is just a flaw in the locked screen. There are some 
other functions that do not work correctly in locked screen mode. 

I also notice that when I am in an application that notifications disappear 
before I can check them. Perhaps this is part of the same problem. 

I am  awaiting resolution of this problem. If none is forthcomming, maybe they 
can show us how to go back to IOS 10.

Did anyone see that apparently not reading notifications on the locked screen 
is a change with a purpose? Apple is giving users the ability to read 
notifications only after the user's ID is known by the phone. So, your 
fingehprin opens the locked screen and it will show either the whole 
notification or only the place it comes from. Maybe this is the reason the 
notifications are no longer read. Not good in my opinion, but I took off the 
open screen by resting finger off, and now I can look at them without 
automatically going to the main home screen. Hope they will reinstate reading 
with VO in the future.

I figured a tool like this would allow me to take much better pictures of

If you don’t like the StandScan, what would you use instead that would give me

Did widgets only become available in IOS 11?  If not, could someone

  I'll try that, but I solved the issue by finding and adding the 
widget. I had never worked with widgets before, so I didn't understand at 
first what Robert and Larry were talking about. While i was at it, i added 
several widgets for apps that I use frequently. Widgets are a very powerful 
tool, kind of like icons on a PC's desktop.

Ask Siri how much charge is in your case. You might have to ask 
twice but Siri will tell you.

And with iTunes 12.7? Re: Using Dropbox to transfer books from computer to Iphone's Bard Mobile app?

2017-10-14 Thread Gerardo Corripio
Using an iPhone 5S with latest iOS, tried on a 118 Mb book, but no go! I left 
it alone for nearly 45 minutes at the "Exporting book) after having selected 
"Copy to Bard Mobile" but nothing! I'd check on Bard Mobile's Bookshelf, but 
nothing was on there! Any ideas? Also has anyone tried with iTunes 12.7 to see 
if one can still import books to Bard Mobile?

I have a friend who is getting an android phone.

If anyone knows of a good tutorial that would help learning their version of
voiceover, I'd really appreciate it.
