Re: question about ios6 for developers
Hallo William, there is already support for rtf documents in iOS. At least reading shouldn't be a problem. Apple's Cocoa Touch framework includes a so-called UIWebView class, which can handle rtf files. You can observe this when reading a rtf that is attached to an e-mail. However, a developer might choose another way of presenting the files ... Greetings Jan --- ColorVisor - The app to identify colors.

First and foremost, you will be able to read talking books on iPhones, iPads, and Android based mobile devices. However, these mobile apps will have to protect Talking Books from unauthorized use. All of their files will have to be encrypted so that only devices authorized by NLS and used by registered patrons will be able to access books. This process was one of the biggest hurdles to overcome while they were developing the app. Plans are also in the works to distribute audio magazines including Talking Book Topics on digital cartridges. At least three magazines can be put on a single digital cartridge. Because of the higher cost of these cartridges, though, users will have to mail them back to the library so that more magazines can be put on them. Web-Braille, which was started in 1999, will be on the Bard website as well. Now, you will be able to download Braille magazines, music scores, and Braille books all from just one website. Previously, Web-Braille had its own website. The NLS collection will now also have a broader selection of materials with synthetic-speech narration because they will be joining forces with commercial audiobook producers. NLS still has to be granted permission from the rights holders to use commercial audiobooks, but they are constantly working on that issue. In recent years, audiobooks have come from one producer, Brilliance Audio. NLS has only had the money to obtain 200 audiobook titles a year. Now, they are reaching out to other audiobook publishers. For the most part, people are pretty happy with BARD: it is simple, it provides a basic need, and it does that well. [But] it is growing like crazy, and we have to plan for that, said Michael Martys, an NLS automation officer. It costs $4,500 to produce a talking book from scratch. However, it costs much less when you have the master files of a commercial audiobook. This includes the work that NLS has to do with the book which includes navigational markup and metadata and convert the files into digital talking books. Because the commercial audiobooks don't cost as much to produce, this could free up funds to produce more books each year. Working with commercial audiobook producers will also allow NLS to get the book out much, much faster, said Neil Bernstein, NLS research and development officer. And patrons will get to hear a wider variety of narrators--perhaps even discovering some new favorites. In the months ahead, NLS will evaluate the quality of various text-to-speech programs and begin to experiment with producing books using that technology--not to take the place of live narration, but to augment what they have. For example, it could be used, by

First locate the contact you want to delete. Next double-tap the Edit button which you will find in the upper portion of the screen. I can't remember if it's toward the right or left, but it is definitely at the top. Move to the bottom of the contact info. You can do this by tapping with four fingers near the bottom of the screen. Double-tap the Delete button, which is the last element on the screen and is located at the very bottom. On the next screen you should find a delete contact button and a cancel button. Double-tap the Delete Contact button to remove the contact. Return to your contacts list and the contact will be gone. I hope this helps.

All the songs are in the same place and if you play them from the playlist or the view where you can check or uncheck them, they all play. I have had some of these on this phone before so I know they work. If anyone has any ideas I could sure use them. Thanks much.

RE: BT earphone won't connect
Did you try going into bluetooth on the phone and removing the device. Now, pair again. If you have other devices showing that you do not require, you might try removing those, too. Maybe even remove everything so that the Bose shows first. Eric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: typing on the phone
I'm still a relatively new iPhone user, and I've been trying touch typing lately myself, but I tended to swap the roles of my fingers depending on which side of the keyboard I was on. For example, I usually use the pointer finger on my right hand, but if I know I'm going to be typing something on the far right side of the keyboard, like a 'l' or a 'p' then I know my middle finger might be hanging off the edge of the keyboard, so I'll swap the roles and look for the character with my middle finger and tap with my pointer. Another thing I realized, as I experiment with different typing methods, is that when split tapping, I tend to sweep my finger back and forth across the keyboard and never lift it off the iPhone. When I first started touch typing, I resented having to take my finger off the keyboard, but now what I'm finding, is that instead of placing the finger back on the keyboard in the same spot where it was when I took it off the keyboard, I now try to locate the next character without sweeping my finger across the keyboard itself. I think this has made me a slightly faster typer with touch typing than with split tapping. I know this probably sounds pretty obvious to the experienced iPhone users, but in case there's anyone else out there who's still learning like I am then maybe this tip will help. BTW, I still need to experiment with using my thumbs. I also am glad this discussion has continued. I wouldn't have given touch typing another try so quickly if we hadn't had this discussion.

Depends if the tapper is likely to hit the edge of the screen, then we have to swap or change angle dramatically, and have to do a certain amount even when touch typing as control type keys need it regardless. - shift, return, More numbers/letter/other, etc. But a recent theme about double thumb typing offered an interesting deviation in which case covering half the kb each, the appropriate thumb hunts and the other taps, and vicerVersa. - Original Message - From: Jeremiah Rogers jeremiahzrog...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012 5:35 PM Subject: Re: typing on the phone One question for you split tappers, any tips for when to switch the duties of fingers?

Re: Avoid Skype 4.0.1325 update
Hi Kevin, I just updated my Skype as well and even made sure that the update installed by going to About Skype: in the My Info tab and I do have 4.0.1325. I don't see any changes in accessibility, I can go into the Messages Tab, open up old conversations and read all the messages that were sent back and forth, I can see when calls were made, their duration etc. The Dialpad also still works fine. I actually sent you several IM's on Skype using my iPhone 4S, I dictated the messages using SIRI and then doubl tapped Send and since I had Skype open on my computer at the same time he messages showed up there as well and everything seems fine.

issues with wi-fi
My ipad shows I'm connected to wi-fi here at home, however, my att data gave me a message this morning that no more data is available on my data plan that I use when on the road or out of town. Why did my data plan get used when I'm clearly logged on as being on wi-fi? I upgraded my ios last week, and I don't like some of the new functions, such as when I scroll down to see how many signal bars I have and such, the system doesn't show me the time.

RE: twitteriffic and notifications
Hi Mary, Echofon and the official Twitter for iPhone app are the only two accessible options I'm aware of that have native push notifications. Some choose to use a third party push service, such as Boxcar, to work around this. I find Boxcar to be increasingly flaky and a battery drain so have removed it from my phone. Echofon does not support displaying of real names, showing only a person's Twitter username, so for now I use Twitter for iPhone primarily. Tweetlist has been promising for a long time that push is just around the corner, but we're still waiting.

Re: Activating the Notification Center
Regarding the notification center, one solution is to lock the phone, unlock it, and on the unlock screen swipe/flick to the right to view current alerts/notifications. Regarding the page turning gesture, I always have my fingers in a vertible line, but I heard from someone a few days ago that the gesture will work whether your fingers are top to bottom or side to side. I think as long as you've got 3 fingers on the screen and they're all moving to the left or right at once, it doesn't matter how you have them. It makes more sense to me to have my fingers vertically, like turning a page in a book.

Re: iTunes Alternatives
Previously I went looking for a good media manager, and several of them claimed to support the iPod. I didn't have an iPhone at the time, so I didn't care about that particular feature. You don't say what OS or screen reader you're using, so I'll assume you're talking about Windows. Winamp and FooBar are both accessible and have iPod support either built in or as a plug in. A page with links to more information is at http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/29716/heres-five-alternatives-to-itunes-10-for-easily-managing-your-ipod/ Media Monkey and Songbird also claim to support the iPod, and I had some success with them with respect to accessibility, although at the time, I wouldn't call either of them accessible. Songbird has been changing rapidly, so it might be worth taking a look at again. A more comprehensive list of iTunes alternatives, some of which may be accessible, can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_iPod_managers On Linux, I see that RhythmBox, Banshee, Clementine and Amarok all have some level of iPod support, and I know RhythmBox is accessible. I haven't heard any of these alternatives discussed on list yet though, so if you give any of them a try, I'd be curious to know how you get a long. I suppose I may try RhythmBox at some point, but I'm pretty much trying to rely on the cloud for now. Another option is to use the cloud. I use Ubuntu One for example, which has a Ubuntu, Windows, IOS and Android client. I don't think there's a Mac client though, at least not yet.

Re: issues with wi-fi
Melissa, while I can't specifically address your question in detail, I would certainly concur that there are definitely wi fi issues in 5.1.1. I, along with other people I know have noticed that the phones jump off of wi fi more than they did before. I've had to really pay attention to keep up with which messages go as texts and not iMessages for reasons which I can not control. Facetime hangs up more than it did before. So, at this point, my level of expertise goes to, come on 5.1.2! grin. Hope maybe someone else on here is smarter about this one.

RE: issues with wi-fi
Hello Melissa, I am so sorry your iPad inadvertently used up all of your data. The reason for this is that, since updating I suspect, your Wi-Fi connection has dropped out. Yours is the first I've heard happening on an iPad, however. I suggest you do the following from time-to-time during the next 24 hours or so: 1. Power cycle your iOS device. Be sure not to launch any apps after the system is up and running. 2. On your iOS device, go to Settings. 3. Confirm that you are connected to your selected Wi-Fi. You can do this by simply touching the appropriate Item in the Settings list; that is, there is no need to actually open the Wi-Fi menu item. 4. Assuming that your Wi-Fi does not say Not Connected, close the Settings area and make sure focus is placed back on your normal iOS launch pad. 5. Lock your iOS device by pressing the Sleep/Wake button. 6. After about 10 minutes or so, wake-up your device and go into the Settings area and check to see if the Wi-Fi is still connected. Chances are, it will report that it is not connected. Melissa, if you find that you are losing your Wi-Fi connection, you may need to reset all of your network settings. This should fix the problem. To everyone: Please be aware that I have discovered several apps that seem to break Wi-Fi connectivity since 5.1.1 was released. I have removed them from my iOS device and now my Wi-Fi connection is rock-solid, again. The apps I removed were the CNN USA App and both of the Time Warner cable Apps.

WiFi Dropping or Not Listed In WiFi settings
Hello, Recently, this has happened twice within the last 2 weeks. Fortunately, I have the alert on to warn me to sign on to a WiFi connection or to cancel. This is the only way that I knew that I was not using my WiFi and 3G was eating at my data. I could check every time I open the phone, but that would get old after a while. When I went into settings and checked my WiFi options, my ISP was not listed nor the one other in the neighborhood. I used the sleep/lock button 5 times to see if that would fix it and it did. However, this doesn't get to the root of the problem to make a permanent fix to the issue. Does anyone have any suggestions or an explanation on why this is happening? I am running iPhone4 with IOS 5.0.1. Thanks in advance. Eileen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

RE: issues with wi-fi
Hello Veronica, You ask an interesting question. My answer is that it depends upon how you have the app setup. For example, in my case, I had the CNN app setup to give me notifications. Now, perhaps, if I had not allowed either notifications or allowed the app to access my current location, it would not have broken my Wi-Fi. Frankly, by the time I isolated the problem, I didn't care anymore, I only wanted my Wi-Fi to stay connected. Finally, I am not saying that the CNN app, alone, is the problem, I am saying that removing it fixed my issue.

RE: WiFi Dropping or Not Listed In WiFi settings
Hello Eileen, Setting the iPhone to ask before joining a Wi-Fi hotspot is certainly one way to become aware of any Wi-Fi problems. However, this request will only come if an app requires Wi-Fi; you will not know exactly when the connection was lost, a vital component in troubleshooting. Also, I have noticed that, even when my Wi-Fi was not connected, before fixing the problem, it would become connected when an app made a request. Thus setting the phone to ask before connecting, in some instances, can cause an app not to connect when it otherwise would have. It all depends upon the specific nature of the Wi-Fi connectivity problem. As far as I know, Apple has not yet acknowledged this problem despite hundreds and hundreds of posts about it.

Fortunately, I have the alert on to warn me to sign on to a WiFi connection or to cancel. This is the only way that I knew that I was not using my WiFi and 3G was eating at my data. I could check every time I open the phone, but that would get old after a while. When I went into settings and checked my WiFi options, my ISP was not listed nor the one other in the neighborhood. I used the sleep/lock button 5 times to see if that would fix it and it did. However, this doesn't get to the root of the problem to make a permanent fix to the issue. Does anyone have any suggestions or an explanation on why this is happening? I am running iPhone4 with IOS 5.0.1. Thanks in advance.

Re: Avoid Skype 4.0.1325 update
Kevin, You should read more than one post about broken accessibility before making such comments. It appears Kevin Chao has a specific issue which so far nobody else has confirmed. At least 5 or 6 others including myself have absolutely no problems with this Skype update, so no, the dumbasses aren't all that dumb after all and maybe Kevin has already solved whatever issue he had by removing and reinstalling the app, at least I hope so. I hope all other 1273 list members (not counting you and myself) found your post as useful as I did. And for all those who wonder if they should upgrade to the latest Skype update, it seems you can safely do so, if you are worried you may experience the same issue as Kevin just update from your phone so at least you can delete the app if there is a problem and sync with the previous version in your iTunes library. I have copied this latest version to a Backup folder so in case something ever happens and accessibility truly does get damaged at least I have a version I can use and for certain apps which are important I think keeping copies of versions where accessibility works well is always a good idea.

Re: iPhone, iPad, and 1 bluetooth keyboard
Hi Robbie, I think the eaqsiest way to do what you want to do and not buy a second keyboard is to make sure that bluetooth is not turn on on both of your devices at the same time if both are in range of the keyboard. You could be away from home and have the keyboard and your phone work just fine, and bluetooth could be active on your IPad that you left at home. But you can't have them both with bluetooth switched on and in range of each other. I have a friend who discovered this when he purchased an IPod Touch and tried using it with his bt keyboard while at the same time having his IPhone on and in close proximity to his location with the Touch.

The reason for this is that, since updating I suspect, your Wi-Fi connection has dropped out. Yours is the first I've heard happening on an iPad, however. I suggest you do the following from time-to-time during the next 24 hours or so: 1. Power cycle your iOS device. Be sure not to launch any apps after the system is up and running. 2. On your iOS device, go to Settings. 3. Confirm that you are connected to your selected Wi-Fi. You can do this by simply touching the appropriate Item in the Settings list; that is, there is no need to actually open the Wi-Fi menu item. 4. Assuming that your Wi-Fi does not say Not Connected, close the Settings area and make sure focus is placed back on your normal iOS launch pad. 5. Lock your iOS device by pressing the Sleep/Wake button. 6. After about 10 minutes or so, wake-up your device and go into the Settings area and check to see if the Wi-Fi is still connected. Chances are, it will report that it is not connected. Melissa, if you find that you are losing your Wi-Fi connection, you may need to reset all of your network settings. This should fix the problem. To everyone: Please be aware that I have discovered several apps that seem to break Wi-Fi connectivity since 5.1.1 was released. I have removed them from my iOS device and now my Wi-Fi connection is rock-solid, again. The apps I removed were the CNN USA App and both of the Time Warner cable Apps.

Re: is it possible to determine Sim card number without removing it?
Hi, Yes - thats what most people use it for, but it from memory will also give you the imei which is what I think you're after. You don't have to do anything like jailbreak to run it; just open it with your phone connected and it *should* detect the phone and give you some different bits of information about it. If you think you've messed up whilst using it and for whatever reason you accidentally pressed a button and your phone stops talking which could happen, just remember that tinyUmbrella won't do anything permanent to your phone - rebooting it will bring it back to how it was. In otherwords, downgrading the operating system is a multi step process which involves tinyUmbrella, iTunes and some files that you need to download - there simply is no way that you will inadvertently downgrade the phone just by running tinyUmbrella. When I used it, I was trying to find out what network a 3GS that I had acquired was locked to. It was an American network and I'm in the uk, so I was unable to activate the phone to get any info from it at all. Using tinyUmbrella, I found the imei and confirmed via a website I found that that specific imei was locked to att. That phone in question did end up jailbroken, but that was because I needed to use an unofficial unlock - you have no need to jailbreak if you don't want to. Cheers, Ben.

The main problem I experience is activating Categories to change channels. I have to unload VoiceOver, and tap on the screen near the home button, but it's not as reliable as I'd like it to be.

You can also access xm channels on OOTunes by searching for music dock in that app as well. I haven't tried it yet but hear it streams better there, provided you have an online account -- it'll ask to enter a username and pass word when going to listen to an xm station from what I've heard.

RE: is it possible to determine Sim card number without removing it?
Hi, the IMEI of the phone isn't the same as the number on the Sim. Also, the IMEI can be readily obtained in settings/about on the phone. Jonathan -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ben Mustill-Rose Sent: Tuesday, 22 May 2012 12:41 p.m. To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: is it possible to determine Sim card number without removing it? Hi, Yes - thats what most people use it for, but it from memory will also give you the imei which is what I think you're after. You don't have to do anything like jailbreak to run it; just open it with your phone connected and it *should* detect the phone and give you some different bits of information about it. If you think you've messed up whilst using it and for whatever reason you accidentally pressed a button and your phone stops talking which could happen, just remember that tinyUmbrella won't do anything permanent to your phone - rebooting it will bring it back to how it was. In otherwords, downgrading the operating system is a multi step process which involves tinyUmbrella, iTunes and some files that you need to download - there simply is no way that you will inadvertently downgrade the phone just by running tinyUmbrella. When I used it, I was trying to find out what network a 3GS that I had acquired was locked to. It was an American network and I'm in the uk, so I was unable to activate the phone to get any info from it at all. Using tinyUmbrella, I found the imei and confirmed via a website I found that that specific imei was locked to att. That phone in question did end up jailbroken, but that was because I needed to use an unofficial unlock - you have no need to jailbreak if you don't want to. Cheers, Ben.

I want to use my old phone number on his new phone. Someone from ATT said that it would work, but I would need to call ATt with the sim card number. Is the SIM card number the same as the serial number? Can it be found on the phone? I purchased the phone from the Apple website, and the invoice lists a serial number. Could the SIM card number be listed as something else?

Re: Avoid Skype 4.0.1325 update
Hello! I've updated to the latest version of Skype, and I have no accessibility issues. :-) Sent from my iPhone On May 21, 2012, at 5:07 PM, Sieghard siegh...@live.ca wrote: Kevin, You should read more than one post about broken accessibility before making such comments. It appears Kevin Chao has a specific issue which so far nobody else has confirmed. At least 5 or 6 others including myself have absolutely no problems with this Skype update, so no, the dumbasses aren't all that dumb after all and maybe Kevin has already solved whatever issue he had by removing and reinstalling the app, at least I hope so. I hope all other 1273 list members (not counting you and myself) found your post as useful as I did. And for all those who wonder if they should upgrade to the latest Skype update, it seems you can safely do so, if you are worried you may experience the same issue as Kevin just update from your phone so at least you can delete the app if there is a problem and sync with the previous version in your iTunes library. I have copied this latest version to a Backup folder so in case something ever happens and accessibility truly does get damaged at least I have a version I can use and for certain apps which are important I think keeping copies of versions where accessibility works well is always a good idea.

RE: creating twitter lists: was Re: twitteriffic and notifications
Hi Melissa, in Twitter for iPhone, you can manage lists, but not create them.

RE: issues with wi-fi
Thanks Mark. In any case, no harm in removing it for awhile as an experiment. It's not like I can't bring it back if I so desire. grin. I may try it.

My answer is that it depends upon how you have the app setup. For example, in my case, I had the CNN app setup to give me notifications.

Re: issues with wi-fi
Some of you, Mark and maybe others, bring up an interesting point. It has always been my experience and understanding that IOS drops the wifi connection intentionally if nothing is using it after it has been locked for some period of time and then is suppose to transparrently reconnect when you wake it up. Over many versions it has also been my experience that from time to time it does not reliably reconnect without some manual double tapping on the network you want in wifi under settings. Sometimes pressing the power button to lock the screen and unlocking it again triggers it successfully. I also understand the problems you have been point out are loss of connection even while in use, but I think both while in use and while the screen is locked have been referenced. I have not yet upgraded to 5.1.1, but can not be sure the upgrade will not be forced through circumstances at some point. I am hoping there is not a reason to have to try to avoid it and that it is not tied to having a very troublesome experience. It is encouraging that Mark has reported it to be solid though (this issue at least) worked out in his case under 5.1.1. On 5/21/12, Veronica Elsea veron...@laurelcreekmusic.com wrote: Thanks Mark.

Re: XM radio ap.
Hi Mark, Thanks. This will help. When initially launched, the app does open in the Categories List, and that's fine. Once choosing a station, though, and then I open the app, it goes back to the last station played. That's the problem I have. If I could get the App to always start in the Categories list, I'd be set. I'll check in Settings and see if that can happen.

The main problem I experience is activating Categories to change channels. I have to unload VoiceOver, and tap on the screen near the home button, but it's not as reliable as I'd like it to be.
