Apple does make keyboard cases and keyboards for the larger iPads, but not for 
the mini. Unfortunately.

RE: Bluetooth keyboards for iPads

2022-04-07 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I got my wife, who's sighted, an 11 inch iPad for Christmas. She bought herself 
a keyboard case, which seems like a pretty nice one to me. I don't know the 
brand, and she's asleep right now, but I can find that out in the morning. I 
think Apple also makes it's own keyboard case for the iPads.

With the VoiceOver short cut keys, you can basically use the keyboard to 
perform any gesture you can perform with VoiceOver, so once you master those 
short cut keys, you pretty much never have to touch the screen again. Richard 
Turner has some nice documentation on these shortcut keys on his web page. You 
can also get to them by going into the VoiceOver settings. Although I don't 
have the shortcut keys all down yet myself, I do use my iPhone with the K-380 
bluetooth keyboard, and I can do quite a bit before I get stuck and reach for 
the screen.

Subject: Bluetooth keyboards for iPads

Hello everyone,


I am possibly getting an iPad for my birthday. Although, I am not 100 percent 
sure about this. I have wanted one for a while now. But I can do most things I 
want to do, on my phone. Plus, I don't really know how having one might help me.

However, I certainly will make the best use of one, if it is something I get 
for my birthday.


With all that said, does anyone know if they make bluetooth keyboards, 
that fit over an iPad?

I guess that would likely be more of a keyboard case?


I know years ago, they used to make something like this. As when I had 
an iPad Mini, for a short time, I had one of those.


My other question is this.

If you can use a bluetooth, keyboard case with an iPad, are there 
commands you can use, so that you aren't always having to use the screen?


I think my hesitation with having an iPad, is that I know how slow I am, 
when it comes to a touch screen. I can do quite a bit with my phone. And 
I use it all the time. But when it comes to typing on it, I am rather 
slow at it. No amount of practice over the years, has really changed 
this. So I know it will be this way for me, if I am trying to use an 
iPad. As often as I can, I use my bluetooth keyboard with my phone, to 
type. Or I dictate.


Any thoughts, or suggestions would be much appreciated. I would likely 
be getting an iPad Mini. As this is what I have talked about wanting, in 
the past.


Thank you,


Terri

Widget on iPad

2022-04-07 Thread Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND
Hi,

As of a recent update on my iPad mini, I am noticing a widget that periodically 
shows up which says "waiting widget".  It then seems to disappear after a short 
time.  Then if I am in an app and come back out to the home screen, it is there 
again.

As another person posted, several other strange widgets had showed up after 
updating to IOS 15.  I was able to remove those by the double tap and hold 
method, but I don't seem to be able to do anything with this waiting widget.

Does anyone know what it is for or how to remove it?

Thanks,
Pam

Re: Bluetooth keyboards for iPads

2022-04-07 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Terry,
I recently purchased an iPad mini, and I bought a keyboard to go with it. I 
sent the keyboard back. It was the sort you described, with a keyboard and then 
the iPad fits in the top. I had a few problems with the keyboard. Number one 
was the large bezel around the keyboard, which meant that the  space barwas not 
in a good position for me. Number two was the small size of the keyboard. That 
is because it’s an iPad mini, so of course the keyboard isn’t anything close to 
full size. I’ve been typing for 50 years, make that closer to 60. I learned on 
an old manual typewriter and typed on those for years. all these little dinky 
keyboards with their lousy key travel etc. are not my idea of a good time. You 
may have better luck of course. Or you could have a separate keyboard that’s 
not a case, and then you’ll have more choices. There are not very many cases 
made with a keyboard in them for the mini.

Bluetooth keyboards for iPads

2022-04-07 Thread Terri Stimmel

Hello everyone,


I am possibly getting an iPad for my birthday. Although, I am not 100 
percent sure about this. I have wanted one for a while now. But I can do 
most things I want to do, on my phone. Plus, I don't really know how 
having one might help me.


However, I certainly will make the best use of one, if it is something I 
get for my birthday.



With all that said, does anyone know if they make bluetooth keyboards, 
that fit over an iPad?


I guess that would likely be more of a keyboard case?


I know years ago, they used to make something like this. As when I had 
an iPad Mini, for a short time, I had one of those.



My other question is this.

If you can use a bluetooth, keyboard case with an iPad, are there 
commands you can use, so that you aren't always having to use the screen?



I think my hesitation with having an iPad, is that I know how slow I am, 
when it comes to a touch screen. I can do quite a bit with my phone. And 
I use it all the time. But when it comes to typing on it, I am rather 
slow at it. No amount of practice over the years, has really changed 
this. So I know it will be this way for me, if I am trying to use an 
iPad. As often as I can, I use my bluetooth keyboard with my phone, to 
type. Or I dictate.



Any thoughts, or suggestions would be much appreciated. I would likely 
be getting an iPad Mini. As this is what I have talked about wanting, in 
the past.



Thank you,


Terri

Re: Using files as ring tones without iTunes

2022-04-07 Thread Joshua Hendrickson
I think I'll stick with iTunes.  That is easier for me than using
something like garage band.  However, the demo was done quite well.
Thanks for providing it for us all.

 I'll record the demo tonight and put the dropbox link in this group.
 I'll send you the link privately as well Jasmine. I received the email
 you sent me.

 Hi,
 Have you been able to do this in the last few months? I can't seem
 to get the GarageBand app to work, maybe because I'm totally blind.

 Sincerely,

 The only way I know of to accomplish what you want is to import the
 M4R file into GarageBand on your iPhone. Then you can share it as a
 ringtone and it will show up in your ringers and alerts. That is the
 only way I have been able to put M for our files into my ringtones
 and alerts.
