RE: Facetime on ipad mini

2014-08-15 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Andrew,

You find Facetime in the Settings app. Swipe about 10 or 12 times past
General, just before Facetime is Phone and Messages.

As far as finding the Facetime app, you can use Spotlight Search. Do the
following:

1. Touch any app on your home screen, then do a 3-finger swipe down to bring
up Spotlight search
2. Type Facetime into the search field at the top of the screen.
3. Review the search results in the middle of the screen. If you find
Facetime and it is followed by something like Utilities that means it is
located in a folder called Utilities. If it says nothing it means it's on
one of your home screens and not in a folder.

Facetime is an iOS stock app so it can't be deleted and it's definitely
going to be somewhere.

Oh, one more thing, if you don't have a heading called Applications in
your spotlight search results, you might not have that enabled. You would
have to go to Settings, General, Spotlight search to check that. Spotlight
search is the fourth item in General Settings after About, Software Update
and SIRI.


Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: Re: Facetime on ipad mini

I've been through my home screens that equal 3 several times but can't find
it.  I run iOS 7..1.2 which is the latest, I believe.  I will go through all
my folders again.  I asked siri to make a facetime call to a contact but
siri said that it couldn't do so because I had restrictions on in FaceTime.
I went through my settings but I can't find anything to do with facetime
there either.  I feel a bit of a dummy at the moment.

Thanks for your replies, folks.

 Andrew,
 
 Are you using iOS 7 on your iPad Mini or is it an original iPad Mini 
 which is still running iOS 6? The Facetime app was only added in iOS 7.
 
 However, you don't really need a Facetime app to make a Facetime call.
 Please note also that Facetime Audio is another feature which was 
 added in iOS 7, in iOS 6 one can only do regular Facetime calls which
include video.
 
 If you are running iOS 7 then maybe your Facetime app was moved to 
 another home screen or into a folder.

 Sieghard

 Dear Listers,
 
 I have a facetime app on my iPhone 5C but I can't find anything like 
 this equivalent on my ipad mini.  I assumed that facetime app would be 
 there by default.  Do I have to download a special application to be 
 able to do facetime on iPad mini?
 
 Thanks for any tips.
 
 Andrew

Related message re Memo Is It Me? or is there a bug in the native Voice Memos App

2014-08-15 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Morning.

Following on from Mark's question, I got a recording from some one through an I 
message and when I came to listen to it, I could not get out of it. I had to 
shut down I message through the app switcher. I know this isn't a memo related 
question but I did get a memo recording via I message so therefore this is 
related.

Thank you.

I'd just like to thank Mark Taylor for his clarity when he does reply to 
people's messages.

Kawal.

 Hello All,
 
 Today, I made a quick recording in the Voice Memos app.  Try as I may, I
 could not get the recording to playback on my phones speaker, located at the
 bottom of the device.
 
 I toggled the 1 button I found from Headset to Speaker yet, when Speaker was
 selected, audio would come from the earpiece area located above the display.
 
 Am I missing something here?  I do remember that, at some point in the past,
 I was able to make a recording and then simply play it back for all to hear
 via the speakerphone feature.

 iPhone.  I have an invoice that I have to send to a facility every month. 
  I
 have to change the date and then send it to them.  For now, I am doing it 
 on
 my windows computer, but, would like to be able to do it on my phone if
 possible.  I have filed the invoice in my dropbox.  If I send it that way,
 the people who receive it will have to download the file, correct?  It 
 only
 sends the link, right?  Any advice is appreciated.

What's the best Facebook App?

2014-08-15 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
Hello.

At this present time, I set up a new Facebook account and deactivated my 
account for later use. What I'd like to know is the following. What is the best 
Facebook App to use on IOS the official App or another app from the App Store? 
I no there is no simple answer  but I'd like to hear what others say about what 
is best to use with the I phone. However Facebook annoys me because I got too 
many invites and too many E-mail notifications so I deactivated my account as 
Facebook is one of my hated websites.

Kawal.

 It is a little tedious, but since Dropbox allows for the Open In option,
 you can open a file in Group Mail and then it will be available to send from

 I don't know what the current price is for the app.
 I've not used Quick Office, so I can't compare to that for ease of use, etc.

Re: NFL AudioPass Question

2014-08-15 Thread Wayne Merritt
I saw the abbreviations in the app last night when listening to the
game. If you think of the abbreviations being for cities, as well as
getting the team's name when the game is currently happening, this
might help.

I have another Audio Pass question: is there a place in the app or on
the site that lists the full schedules for each team? I am looking for
a second team to list as a favorite and would like to look through the
various schedules. The only way I have found to do this so far is by
looking on the team's website under schedule. Seems like most team
sites are laid out in much the same way, which makes the process of
finding the schedule easier.

If you hold the iPad in landscape, you will have a split screen with the

But if you just prefer portrait mode, the back to inbox button is in the top

Re: NFL AudioPass Question

2014-08-15 Thread Chris Chaffin
You can always use Siri to  get a teams schedule.
For example, just say, What is the New York Giants 2014 season schedule.
Now it will list all preseason and regular season games.

Siri usually does a good job at getting sports information.
You can also use Siri to  get all games being played this week, a teams current 
standings, and a list of teams by division, conference, or all teams, in the 
order they rank.
I use Siri a lot when it comes to  getting sports information because it is 
just quicker and easier.

Hope this helps,

Chris Chaffin

Re: NFL AudioPass Question

2014-08-15 Thread Wayne Merritt
And for those of us that don't use Siri, either because we don't talk
loud enough or have other speech issues, is there another way? I fired
Siri 2 months after I got my iPhone. It either did not understand me
or did not give me the correct answers. So I don't use Siri anymore.
It is great if you have a clear voice, but not so much if you don't.

 You can always use Siri to  get a teams schedule.
 For example, just say, What is the New York Giants 2014 season schedule.
 Now it will list all preseason and regular season games.

 Siri usually does a good job at getting sports information.
 You can also use Siri to  get all games being played this week, a teams
 current standings, and a list of teams by division, conference, or all
 teams, in the order they rank.
 I use Siri a lot when it comes to  getting sports information because it is
 just quicker and easier.

 Hope this helps,

 a second team to list as a favorite and would like to look through the

 Hello Eileen and all,
 
 If you don't want to do the exercise Move proposes, you can request a 
 different exercise. In the update that came out earlier this summer, when you 
 did this, the screen didn't update properly, so you couldn't find out what 
 the new exercise was. This has been fixed. Also, if you use the countdown 
 timer, it now speaks timer progress every 5 seconds until the last 5, and 
 then every 1. It's so nice to hear how much time is left.
 
 You need the Youtube app to access the videos. The developer plans to add 
 text instructions to a future update, but he's trying to get clear directions 
 from a trainer, and that's taking a while. In the meantime, he is trying to 
 include only videos that have clear verbal instructions and get rid of the 
 ones that have no spoken content. I haven't checked out many videos yet, so I 
 don't know whether he's done that yet.

 Hello,
 
 I've loved the Move app
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/move-daily-activity-to-stay/id55599476
 0?mt=8 since I got it from AppsGoneFree a year and a half ago. It's a 
 fitness app that prompts you to do specific exercises throughout the day
 at the interval you set. The exercises are chosen at random. For instance,
 at 9:20, you might be asked to do 25 crunches, at 10:20, you might be asked
 to walk up and down 4 flights of stairs, etc. The app was always reasonably
 accessible, but there were a few issues. I pointed these out to the
 developer, and he has fixed them in an update that came out this morning.
 
 This is a great app for anyone who wants to get in a little better shape
 and doesn't want to do a long workout at any one time. You can buy
 additional exercises to get more variety, and you can remove exercises you
 don't like so that the app won't propose them. And if it suggests one you
 don't want to do, you can ask for a new one. And with these accessibility
 improvements, it's particularly good.  Thanks so much to the developer,
 Kevin Holesh, for making such a good and accessible app!
 
 Cheers,
 Anna

The Facebook app works fairly well. If you received too many emails and

control what event triggers an email. You might want to consider using the
mobile Facebook site which is much easier to navigate. It is m.facebook.com.

RE: email opens in message, instead of inbox, using iPad air

I don't have an iPad, but if you hold it in portrait mode and are in a

I guess you would first have to let us know if you are using the iPad in
landscape or portrait mode. If you use it in landscape mode then as Richard
said, you will see both the messages and mailbox list but even here a scrub
gesture should take you from an open message back to the list of messages.

 Hi,
  
 It is true that the Flex is supposed to be worn on your wrist.  If I'm going 
 to be walking, I usually attach the band to my shoe or sandal so it will 
 record my steps.  Around the house, I figure it doesn't matter so much.  
 There are plenty of steps I take while carrying something, so if it thinks 
 I'm stepping when I'm actually cleaning, it doesn't much matter.  I even wear 
 it during my water aerobics class.  It doesn't cover my actual steps in the 
 pool, but my arms are always moving, so I think it is close enough.
  
 I agree with Linda that knowing how many steps you take helps to do more.  I 
 get my 10,000 one way or the other.  If on my treadmill, holding the hand 
 rail, I attach it to my shoe. 
  
 I also like the silent alarms you can set up.  The Flex vibrates.  You can 
 set up 5 per day, and setting it up is completely accessible on your phone.
  
 I have both my Flex and Aria synced with my fitness pal app, and I log my 
 food into that.  In my fitness pal, you can see your progress, and because 
 Flex tells the app what I've done, it can include the calories I really have 
 taken in and the ones I've used.  My fitness pal also shows my weight.
  
 I apologize for the long post.  I'd be happy to answer anything off list.  My 
 e-mail is at the bottom.

 Hi Terrie,
  
 I have the Fit Bit Zip. The Zip can be clipped to your clothing and is, in my 
 opinion, the best pedometer that I have used. It also allows you to track 
 calories burned and duration of exercise. I have to admit, I have not used 
 the logging for food. I am torn between staying with Weight Watchers and 
 trying the food logging available through Fit Bit.
  
 I did have to set up my account online before registering my Zip.
  
 One of the reasons I chose the Zip instead of the Fit Bit Flex was the 
 potential for the flex to interpret hand motion as a step. I can't remember 
 whether that was mentioned here on the list or if I read it on FitBit.com
  
 The Zip is $59 at most places and the Flex is $99. I purchased my Zip 
 atdrugstore.com. You receive 5% back and I received an additional 8% back 
 shopping through extrabux.com.
  
 I have had my Zip registered since July 5th. This week I will log over 
 300,000 steps. It has definitely helped me to be more active.

Re: FitBit and External Equipment for Newby

2014-08-15 Thread Lois Butterfield
Hi Annie,

Unfortunately, the answer is no.  it really only tracks your movement in the 
water as if you were walking, and there is no keeping track of time.

I’m not sure if there is such a tracking device out there.

Good luck.

Hi Lois. 

I love swimming, and I would like something that can go into the water and 
track some information, how long I have been swimming, can that device be used 
for that.

Best regards Annie.

  Hi,

  It is true that the Flex is supposed to be worn on your wrist.  If I’m going 
to be walking, I usually attach the band to my shoe or sandal so it will record 
my steps.  Around the house, I figure it doesn’t matter so much.  There are 
plenty of steps I take while carrying something, so if it thinks I’m stepping 
when I’m actually cleaning, it doesn’t much matter.  I even wear it during my 
water aerobics class.  It doesn’t cover my actual steps in the pool, but my 
arms are always moving, so I think it is close enough.

  I agree with Linda that knowing how many steps you take helps to do more.  I 
get my 10,000 one way or the other.  If on my treadmill, holding the hand rail, 
I attach it to my shoe. 

  I also like the silent alarms you can set up.  The Flex vibrates.  You can 
set up 5 per day, and setting it up is completely accessible on your phone.

  I have both my Flex and Aria synced with my fitness pal app, and I log my 
food into that.  In my fitness pal, you can see your progress, and because Flex 
tells the app what I’ve done, it can include the calories I really have taken 
in and the ones I’ve used.  My fitness pal also shows my weight.

  I apologize for the long post.  I’d be happy to answer anything off list.  My 
e-mail is at the bottom.

  Good luck,
  Lois

  Hi Terrie,
   
  I have the Fit Bit Zip. The Zip can be clipped to your clothing and is, in my 
opinion, the best pedometer that I have used. It also allows you to track 
calories burned and duration of exercise. I have to admit, I have not used the 
logging for food. I am torn between staying with Weight Watchers and trying the 
food logging available through Fit Bit.
   
  I did have to set up my account online before registering my Zip.
   
  One of the reasons I chose the Zip instead of the Fit Bit Flex was the 
potential for the flex to interpret hand motion as a step. I can’t remember 
whether that was mentioned here on the list or if I read it on FitBit.com
   
  The Zip is $59 at most places and the Flex is $99. I purchased my Zip 
atdrugstore.com. You receive 5% back and I received an additional 8% back 
shopping through extrabux.com.
   
  I have had my Zip registered since July 5th. This week I will log over 
300,000 steps. It has definitely helped me to be more active.

Re: wonderful accessibility update to move fitness app

2014-08-15 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello Lelia,

Some of the exercises have countdown timers, but others don't. The one you did 
doesn't because it told you to do a specific number of lunges. Some, however, 
have time elements, such as Downward Facing Dog for 60 seconds. The timer is 
only available when the exercise requires one.

HTH,

 Hello Eileen and all,
 
 If you don't want to do the exercise Move proposes, you can request a 
 different exercise. In the update that came out earlier this summer, when 
 you did this, the screen didn't update properly, so you couldn't find out 
 what the new exercise was. This has been fixed. Also, if you use the 
 countdown timer, it now speaks timer progress every 5 seconds until the last 
 5, and then every 1. It's so nice to hear how much time is left.
 
 You need the Youtube app to access the videos. The developer plans to add 
 text instructions to a future update, but he's trying to get clear 
 directions from a trainer, and that's taking a while. In the meantime, he is 
 trying to include only videos that have clear verbal instructions and get 
 rid of the ones that have no spoken content. I haven't checked out many 
 videos yet, so I don't know whether he's done that yet.

 Hello,
 
 I've loved the Move app
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/move-daily-activity-to-stay/id55599476
 0?mt=8 since I got it from AppsGoneFree a year and a half ago. It's a 
 fitness app that prompts you to do specific exercises throughout the day
 at the interval you set. The exercises are chosen at random. For instance,
 at 9:20, you might be asked to do 25 crunches, at 10:20, you might be asked
 to walk up and down 4 flights of stairs, etc. The app was always reasonably
 accessible, but there were a few issues. I pointed these out to the
 developer, and he has fixed them in an update that came out this morning.
 
 This is a great app for anyone who wants to get in a little better shape
 and doesn't want to do a long workout at any one time. You can buy
 additional exercises to get more variety, and you can remove exercises you
 don't like so that the app won't propose them. And if it suggests one you
 don't want to do, you can ask for a new one. And with these accessibility
 improvements, it's particularly good.  Thanks so much to the developer,
 Kevin Holesh, for making such a good and accessible app!
 
 Cheers,
 Anna

I don't have an iPad, but if you hold it in portrait mode and are in a

I guess you would first have to let us know if you are using the iPad in
landscape or portrait mode. If you use it in landscape mode then as Richard

gesture should take you from an open message back to the list of messages.

Re: Captcha Solutions for iOS?

2014-08-15 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hi Teresa,

This is a far stretch, but how about taking a screen shot, so it's in the 
camera roll. Then you could try to use maybe TapTapSee, goggles, or one of the 
OCRapps on the phone to import it and see if it will crack the capture. I used 
to use VizWiz when I had a capture that didn't have an audio link to it, but 
the app has worthless because I think they have run out of funds to keep it up. 
HTH.

Best,
Eileen

 Hi, all,
 
 Is there any such thing as of yet? The last two audio captchas I've used have 
 luckily been very good, but I'm wondering if there's something similar to 
 WebVisum or Rumola out there. Rumola has a logo for one, but it isn't out yet.
 
 Thanks,

Amazon Debuts Payment Processing App and Card Reader

2014-08-15 Thread Steve
BlankI'll be interested to see if this is more accessible than the Square 
reader.
(article below)
Steve
Lansing, Mi
Amazon debuts mobile payment app and card reader By Mae Anderson Associated 
Press Amazon is taking direct aim at mobile payment systems such as Square 
by introducing the Amazon Local Register, a credit-card processing device 
and mobile app designed to
help small business owners accept payments through their smartphones and 
tablets. The move places the largest U.S. e-commerce retailer in competition 
with Square and other established mobile payment processing systems such as 
PayPal Here and Intuit's
GoPayment. Amazon's technology includes a card reader that attaches to a 
smartphone, Kindle or tablet. The reader processes credit or debit card 
payments via a secure Amazon network, the same one that processes Amazon.com 
purchases. The service is designed
to serve on-the-go small business owners who might otherwise only accept 
cash or checks, including massage therapists, food truck operators and 
artists who sell their work at outdoor fairs. Small businesses can start 
using Local Register by creating an
account on http://localregister.amazon.com . Businesses must buy Amazon's 
card reader for $10, and download the free mobile app from the Amazon app 
store, the Apple app store or Google Play. The app works on most smartphones 
and tablets, including the
Kindle Fire. Similar to Amazon's strategy in many of its businesses, the 
company aims to compete on price in the mobile payment arena. For customers 
who sign up for the service by Oct. 31, Amazon will take as its fee 1.75 
percent of each payment processed,
or each swipe of the card, a special rate that will last until Jan. 1, 
2016. For people who sign up after Oct. 31, Amazon will take a service fee 
of 2.5 percent of each payment processed. The first $10 in transaction fees 
will be credited back to the
customer, essentially paying for the card reader. That's below most of its 
competitors' rates. Square takes a fee of 2.75 percent of each transaction. 
PayPal Here takes 2.7 percent of each transaction and Intuit's GoPayment 
rates start at 1.75 percent
per transaction if businesses pay a $19.95 monthly rate or 2.4 percent of 
each transaction without a monthly payment. I've actually heard some 
business owners say the only thing that would make them change (point of 
sale) systems is cost savings, said
Matt Swann, vice president of local commerce for Amazon. Payments are hard 
and that's one of the things that gets in the way of serving customers, 
especially for small businesses, Swann said. Payment tools need to be 
inexpensive, simple and trusted
to get the job done. Local Register is part of a slew of new products and 
services that Seattle-based Amazon has introduced this year. The company's 
Fire smartphone debuted this month. In April, it began selling the Fire TV, 
a media streaming device.
Meanwhile, Amazon is expanding its same-day delivery service and offering 
grocery delivery and video and music streaming for its Prime loyalty club 
members. Investors have largely given Amazon a pass on profit as it focuses 
on spending the money it makes
to grow and expand into new areas. But there are some signs patience may be 
waning. The company's most recent quarterly report in July showed a 
deeper-than-expected second quarter loss despite surging revenue. Since 
then, the company's stock has fallen
about 11 percent. Amazon has been expanding into the payment space with 
other products: Amazon payments, which lets users with stored credit card or 
banking information on the Amazon site use their Amazon login to pay at 
sites other than Amazon. And Amazon
Wallet, a beta app that lets users store gift cards, loyalty and rewards 
cards and membership cards and redeem them in store or online.

Re: email opens in message, instead of inbox, using iPad air

2014-08-15 Thread Deb Lewis
I think it's a major annoyance actually. That last message is
selected, but I don't know how to get it unselected when you close the
mail app. Occasionally mine doesn't open a message but I have no idea
what determines this.
It doesn't make any difference whether it's portrait or landscape as
has been stated.

 I don't have an iPad, but if you hold it in portrait mode and are in a
 message, won't a scrub gesture take you back to your mailboxes?

 I guess you would first have to let us know if you are using the iPad in
 landscape or portrait mode. If you use it in landscape mode then as Richard

 gesture should take you from an open message back to the list of messages.

 Hi,

 If you hold the iPad in landscape, you will have a split screen with the
 message on the right side, and the inbox and back button on the left hand
 side.

 But if you just prefer portrait mode, the back to inbox button is in the
 top
 left corner.

I am trying to start using Tumblr to share some of the articles I write, as in 
Newsify you can post to Tumblr, but the Tumblr app is only partially accessible 
very poorly unlabeled buttons and I got stuck in a few screens that had a ton 
of unlabeled elements. I heard there are some paid apps out there for Tumblr 
and wanted to find out if anyone knows of one that works well with VoiceOver.

Using NLS cartridges with mac

noticed that after each book, there is another book saying book error.  each 
actual book is there from beginning to end and these books that are book 
error are taking up space on the cartridge.  When I go in to the cartridge

Fantasy Yahoo question

2014-08-15 Thread Kellie
Hey all, I have a question about the Yahoo fantasy sports app. I believe 
someone on this List mentioned that most of it was now accessible. If so, will 
be drafting portion of the fantasy sports be doable for a blind person? Last 
year, my husband, was part of a league but he wasn't able to draft his own 
players because it wasn't accessible. This year, we are going to have a league 
that is comprised mostly of blind  individuals. So we are curious on the 
feasibility of using this app for us.

If anyone has any information I would appreciate it. Thank you in advance

Re: Using NLS cartridges with mac

2014-08-15 Thread Caitlyn Furness
Vicky,
The reason you are having problems with the books is that when a mac transfers 
things to a USB drive, etc, it leaves mac dust.  This clogs up things for 
nonmac devices.

There used to be an app called blue harvest which would remove this mac dust 
from external media.

Only other solution I know of is to put the cartridge into a pc and manually 
remove the ghost files..

Re: Fantasy Yahoo question

2014-08-15 Thread Brian Fischler
Hey, Yes, live drafting on the Yahoo app is fully accessible. I have been 
working with the Yahoo developers on it for over a year. I drafted all my 
baseball teams in April with zero issues. The one thing that doesn't seem to be 
accessible is pre ranking your players as it is not yet offered in the app even 
to the sighted, and you cannot due it on the website with VoiceOver. I would 
highly suggest trying a mock draft to get familiar with the layout so when you 
do your live draft you aren't caught off guard. The mock draft is identical to 
what the live draft will be so you will want to just around the screens to 
check it out. It's fantastic, and a great job by Yahoo getting the app to work 
with VoiceOver. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Re: Using NLS cartridges with mac

2014-08-15 Thread Cheryl Homiak
Actually this is kind of strange. Is it the NLS player you are using or some 
other? I've transferred talking books from my mac to both the NLS player and 
first generation stream without any extra error files. As for Mac dust 
these are the trash files and spotlight files that the Mac OS system puts in. 
They really shouldn't be causing a problem or at least they never have for me. 
The amount of space they take up on your cartridge, if that is what they are, 
should be negligible. If I wanted  to remove these, I did it  from the command 
line in terminal but not everybody is comfortable with doing that. But I am 
wondering why this is happening for you. I've often put several NLS books on a 
cartridge from my Mac and never had any problem that I can remember. I haven't 
done this in a while so maybe something has happened in the OS system's recent 
versions to cause this. When I have time I'll try to replicate your problem and 
see if I can find you a solution. I don't use my NLS player much now but when I 
did I didn't see this problem so something must have changed.


Cheryl

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper
thrown in the trash!
Then God gave me a new heart and life:
His joy for my despairing tears!
And now, every day:
This I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord
never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.

RE: wonderful accessibility update to move fitness app

2014-08-15 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
I got the app, too. It seems pretty cool. I bought some extra exercises. There 
are four options at 0.99 each, but then the 5th option is Everything for $2.99.

I can't figure out how to change the interval of reminder from 45 minutes to 90 
minutes, and changing the time of alerts from the default 9am to 6pm to my 
preference of 8am to 9pm. Any help will be appreciated.

Hello Lelia,

Some of the exercises have countdown timers, but others don't. The one you did 
doesn't because it told you to do a specific number of lunges. Some, however, 
have time elements, such as Downward Facing Dog for 60 seconds. The timer is 
only available when the exercise requires one.

HTH,

 Hello Eileen and all,
 
 If you don't want to do the exercise Move proposes, you can request a 
 different exercise. In the update that came out earlier this summer, when 
 you did this, the screen didn't update properly, so you couldn't find out 
 what the new exercise was. This has been fixed. Also, if you use the 
 countdown timer, it now speaks timer progress every 5 seconds until the last 
 5, and then every 1. It's so nice to hear how much time is left.
 
 You need the Youtube app to access the videos. The developer plans to add 
 text instructions to a future update, but he's trying to get clear 
 directions from a trainer, and that's taking a while. In the meantime, he is 
 trying to include only videos that have clear verbal instructions and get 
 rid of the ones that have no spoken content. I haven't checked out many 
 videos yet, so I don't know whether he's done that yet.

 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/move-daily-activity-to-stay/id55599

 0?mt=8 since I got it from AppsGoneFree a year and a half ago. It's 
 a fitness app that prompts you to do specific exercises throughout 
 the day
 at the interval you set. The exercises are chosen at random. For 
 instance, at 9:20, you might be asked to do 25 crunches, at 10:20, 
 you might be asked to walk up and down 4 flights of stairs, etc. The 
 app was always reasonably accessible, but there were a few issues. I 
 pointed these out to the developer, and he has fixed them in an update that 
 came out this morning.
 
 This is a great app for anyone who wants to get in a little better 
 shape
 and doesn't want to do a long workout at any one time. You can buy 
 additional exercises to get more variety, and you can remove 
 exercises you don't like so that the app won't propose them. And if 
 it suggests one you don't want to do, you can ask for a new one. And 
 with these accessibility improvements, it's particularly good.  
 Thanks so much to the developer, Kevin Holesh, for making such a good and 
 accessible app!
 
 Cheers,
 Anna

RE: Quickoffice - edit Office documents, spreadsheets, and presentations

2014-08-15 Thread Richard Turner
It is accessible.
I have an observation about that.
While it is accessible, it would not be my first choice for editing word
documents.
When you open a document and double tap to get it editing, you can't just
slide your finger around to find text.  You have to navigate pretty much by
using the rotor set to words.
Lines work when reading, but I wasn't as successful moving by lines when
editing.
I have not tried this with a Bluetooth keyboard or braille display as yet.
This was on the iPhone 5S.

Re: Using NLS cartridges with mac

2014-08-15 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I wonder if your player is running really old firmware. The very first versions 
of the player firmware didn't work well with the Mac. With later versions, 
however, the few extra files a Mac puts on your cartridge will be ignored, and 
Cheryl is right - they don't take a lot of space.

To find out what firmware your player is running, remove the cartridge and 
press the Sleep button 10 times. It should be 2.1.7 or later. If it isn't, log 
into BARD and follow the Latest DTBM firmware and installation instructions 
link to update it.

Best,
Anna

 Hello Lelia,
 
 Some of the exercises have countdown timers, but others don't. The one you 
 did doesn't because it told you to do a specific number of lunges. Some, 
 however, have time elements, such as Downward Facing Dog for 60 seconds. The 
 timer is only available when the exercise requires one.

 You need the Youtube app to access the videos. The developer plans to add

 a fitness app that prompts you to do specific exercises throughout 
 the day
 at the interval you set. The exercises are chosen at random. For 
 instance, at 9:20, you might be asked to do 25 crunches, at 10:20, 
 you might be asked to walk up and down 4 flights of stairs, etc. The 
 app was always reasonably accessible, but there were a few issues. I 
 pointed these out to the developer, and he has fixed them in an update

 This is a great app for anyone who wants to get in a little better

Yes, there are about 8 sounds. Double-tap Sound, and a screen displaying all of

you double-tap it, so you can decide by hearing them which one you want to use.

Re: Facetime on ipad mini

2014-08-15 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Dear Sieghard,

Thank you so much for these careful instructions.  I'm going mad here because I 
still cannot find Facetime on my iPad mini that runs the latest iOS.  Searching 
for facetime in the spotlight did not reveal any results beyond the e-mails 
which we have exchanged regarding facetime.  I've been through all my home 
screens and folders with a fine toothcomb and still haven't found it.  I can't 
have deleted it, canI?

It's not a matter of life and death so please ignore me.

Many thanks for trying.  i've certainly learnt a few things from these 
difficulties, and that in itself is a great help.

Best wishes

Andrew
On 15 Aug 2014, at 07:25, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote:

 Andrew,
 
 You find Facetime in the Settings app. Swipe about 10 or 12 times past
 General, just before Facetime is Phone and Messages.
 
 As far as finding the Facetime app, you can use Spotlight Search. Do the
 following:
 
 1. Touch any app on your home screen, then do a 3-finger swipe down to bring
 up Spotlight search
 2. Type Facetime into the search field at the top of the screen.
 3. Review the search results in the middle of the screen. If you find
 Facetime and it is followed by something like Utilities that means it is
 located in a folder called Utilities. If it says nothing it means it's on
 one of your home screens and not in a folder.
 
 Facetime is an iOS stock app so it can't be deleted and it's definitely
 going to be somewhere.
 
 Oh, one more thing, if you don't have a heading called Applications in
 your spotlight search results, you might not have that enabled. You would
 have to go to Settings, General, Spotlight search to check that. Spotlight
 search is the fourth item in General Settings after About, Software Update
 and SIRI.

 Sieghard

 Are you using iOS 7 on your iPad Mini or is it an original iPad Mini 
 which is still running iOS 6? The Facetime app was only added in iOS 7.
 
 However, you don't really need a Facetime app to make a Facetime call.
 Please note also that Facetime Audio is another feature which was 
 added in iOS 7, in iOS 6 one can only do regular Facetime calls which
 include video.
 
 If you are running iOS 7 then maybe your Facetime app was moved to 
 another home screen or into a folder.

Re: inserting symn card in ipad miny

2014-08-15 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Maria, this is one of those things where it might pay to have sighted 
assistance the first time you do it, but once you know how, it's easily done. I 
pop sims in and out of my devices all the time when I travel, so i don't get 
hit by extortionate roaming charges.
It's really easy to do with the right tool. There's a sim tray on the side of 
the device. You pop the Apple Sim removal tool into a tiny round hole, press, 
and the tray pops out. I'd do it on a flat surface because the nanosims can be 
easily lost.
I understand that with some iPhones in some markets, Apple does not bundle the 
sim removal tool with the iPhone. It's standard in New Zealand and I suspect it 
will be standard in Australia. I don't recall if a sim removal tool came with 
my Mini or not. They're really small and can easily be missed in the box.
If you can't find the sim removal tool, a paperclip usually does it.
Best of luck.

grabbed this weeks schedule off of the AudioPass page and added the team
names below. I'm sure there are some typos, and it isn't in a very good
order, but hopefully it'll help.

JAC - Jacksonville Jaguars
CHI - Chicago Bears
PHI - Philadelphia Eagles
NE - New England Patriots
TEN - Tenessee Titans
NO - New Orleans Saints
SD - San Diego Chargers
SEA - Seattle Seahawks
DET - etroit Lions
OAK - Oakland Raiders
GB - Green Bay Packers
STL - Saint Louis Rams
NYJ - New York Jets
CIN - Cincinatti Bengles
BAL - Baltimore Ravens
DAL - Dallas Cowboys
NYG - New York Giants
IND - Indinanapolis Colts
MIA - Miami Dolphins
TB - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
BUF - Buffalo Bills
PIT Pittsburgh Steelers
ATL - Atlanta Falcons
HOU - Houston Texans
ARI - Arizona Cardinals
MIN Minnesota Vikings
DEN - Denver Broncos
SF San Francisco 49ers
KC Kansas City Chiefs
CAR - Carolina Panthers
CLE - Cleveland Browns
WAS - Washington Redskins

Hi All,
I'm not up on all these abbreviations when looking through the games

Does anybody have a listing of the 3 letter codes for the teams?
Thanks in advance for the help with this app.
I did manage to listen to the bears game only because of the CHI

Re: email opens in message, instead of inbox, using iPad air

2014-08-15 Thread Alan Paganelli
I'm not experiencing that with my iPad Air.  When I open the email app, the 
app opens with a list of email messages on the left half of the screen and 
the first 5 lines of text for each message on the right.  Double tapping on 
the message on the left expands the list of messages on the right starting 
with the oldest message at the bottom of the list but I may have that 
reversed as I'm writing this on a netbook XP machine.

Hi,
On my iPad III, the mail app does always open in the last message that was
previously opened, even if you had closed the message, and this happens even
in portrait.  I have always thought this a bit odd but the back button is
right where you would expect it, at the top left, and so this is only a
minor annoyance.

I don't have an iPad, but if you hold it in portrait mode and are in a
message, won't a scrub gesture take you back to your mailboxes?

I guess you would first have to let us know if you are using the iPad in
landscape or portrait mode. If you use it in landscape mode then as Richard
said, you will see both the messages and mailbox list but even here a scrub
gesture should take you from an open message back to the list of messages.

If you hold the iPad in landscape, you will have a split screen with the

But if you just prefer portrait mode, the back to inbox button is in the top

Re: email opens in message, instead of inbox, using iPad air

2014-08-15 Thread Alan Paganelli
Before I exit the mail app, I hit the back button so that the list of 
accounts is showing.  For example, EarthLink, iCloud, VIPP.  Voice over will 
then read the folder choices with the usual 2 finger flick down and 
announcing the number of messages in each account and all I need to do is to 
double tap the one I want such as EarthLink for example.  Then EarthLink 
opens with it's list of folders such as inbox and then announces how many 
messages are there assuming I didn't finish reading them all.  Under in box 
is the other folders out box sent mail etc.  HTH

I think it's a major annoyance actually. That last message is
selected, but I don't know how to get it unselected when you close the
mail app. Occasionally mine doesn't open a message but I have no idea
what determines this.
It doesn't make any difference whether it's portrait or landscape as
has been stated.

Re: Aria Scale

2014-08-15 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
All,

Have been using the FitBit Aria now for just over a year, brilliant device, 
easy to setup using Voice Over and the FitBit iOS app, and as others have said, 
not only accurate, but, through the app you maintain a record of your weight, 
BMI and other key stats, which is useful and interesting.

This also goes towards the app being more accurate when counting your steps 
etc, plus, calories burned when walking and exercising, after all, a lighter 
person may use less or more energy to excercise etc.

The scales can be linked to up to 8 FitBit accounts making this a great unit 
for the family, I also like the fact that I, for the first time in my life, am 
able to weigh myself in absolute privacy.

RE: Aria Scale

2014-08-15 Thread Lynda Ingraham
Hi Neil, 

I set up my scale a couple of days ago. It was absolutely accurate regarding
my weight. The glitch was with the calculation of my BMI. I weighed myself
twice. There was less than a half pound difference in the two weights.
However, there was an 8% difference regarding my BMI. I called Fit Bit
regarding the discrepancy.  I happened to get someone that could have been
new or just doesn't understand body weight and BMI. She said the reason for
the 8% increase in my BMI was due to the 6/10's of a pound increase in one
of the weights. Do you have any idea whether metal implants could affect the
BMI calculation? I have quite a bit of metal. I have a totally artificial
ankle, two hip implants and a spinal cord stimulator with a battery. 

I did contact the company for my spinal cord stimulator. They said some
people have noticed a small surge in stimulation. I did turn the device off
while weighing myself. 

Fit Bit is going to send a new scale. I appreciate that very much. Just
trying to figure out if this is going to be an ongoing problem due to the
metal. 

Thank you, 

Lynda

All,

Have been using the FitBit Aria now for just over a year, brilliant device,
easy to setup using Voice Over and the FitBit iOS app, and as others have
said, not only accurate, but, through the app you maintain a record of your
weight, BMI and other key stats, which is useful and interesting.

This also goes towards the app being more accurate when counting your steps
etc, plus, calories burned when walking and exercising, after all, a lighter
person may use less or more energy to excercise etc.

The scales can be linked to up to 8 FitBit accounts making this a great unit
for the family, I also like the fact that I, for the first time in my life,
am able to weigh myself in absolute privacy.

RE: wonderful accessibility update to move fitness app

2014-08-15 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
When I double tap on Alert, I get the Buy Everything package tab. This has 
happened about 10 times. I've tried closing and reopening the app, and still 
the same. I've sent a note to Kevin.

I bought all 4 exercise packs. When I tried to deselect from among the many 
exercises, I could only deselect about a quarter of them before double tapping 
no longer changed anything. Also, another note to Kevin.

I like the app's potential, though.

you double-tap it, so you can decide by hearing them which one you want to use.

 Hello Lelia,
 
 Some of the exercises have countdown timers, but others don't. The one you 
 did doesn't because it told you to do a specific number of lunges. Some, 
 however, have time elements, such as Downward Facing Dog for 60 seconds. The 
 timer is only available when the exercise requires one.

 Hello Eileen and all,
 
 If you don't want to do the exercise Move proposes, you can request a 
 different exercise. In the update that came out earlier this summer, when 
 you did this, the screen didn't update properly, so you couldn't find out 
 what the new exercise was. This has been fixed. Also, if you use the 
 countdown timer, it now speaks timer progress every 5 seconds until the 
 last 5, and then every 1. It's so nice to hear how much time is left.
 
 You need the Youtube app to access the videos. The developer plans to add 
 text instructions to a future update, but he's trying to get clear 
 directions from a trainer, and that's taking a while. In the meantime, he 
 is trying to include only videos that have clear verbal instructions and 
 get rid of the ones that have no spoken content. I haven't checked out 
 many videos yet, so I don't know whether he's done that yet.

I think we all have that same issue. I emailed accessibil...@apple.com 
mailto:accessibil...@apple.com  letting them know that this was an issue. I 
don’t recall this being the case in IOS 6.x but maybe I’m wrong. Either way 
it’s very annoying. I did get a response stating that it was being submitted 
for investigation. I also reported the other lock screen issue where the screen 
locks before one has enough time to read the alerts irrespective of what you 
have the time out set to under settings.

Re: Aria Scale

2014-08-15 Thread David Chittenden
You are getting BMI confused with body fat percentage. Body fat percentage is 
calculated using the electrical charge sent through your body and measuring 
resistance. This is the number you want to pay attention to.

BMI, on the other hand, is an almost completely useless number. It was created 
because health workers can look at a chart and see where you are on the chart 
compared with the average. BMI does not take into account bone density, body 
fat compared with muscle, and so forth. Muscle weighs more than fat, so just 
being focused on weight can be unhealthy. And yes, any change in the weight, 
even by a few numbers to the right of the decimal point, will change the BMI 
number.

Finally, Always weigh yourself under the same conditions. My conditions are in 
the morning, after I get up and use the toilet, before I get into the shower, 
and before I drink anything. All of these factors will change your weight.

that list occasionally is just unlock my phone. I'm not aware of any 
other solutions.

RE: is there a way to stop my alerts from being read over and over again,

2014-08-15 Thread Neal Ewers
Hi, I don't think there is a simple way. However, I have an alarm app that I
have set for every half hour. I beeps and then goes away. But after a number
of times it does this, there are all those announcements I hear when I
unlock my phone. All I have to do is to open the app and then close it
again, and this clears all announcements, until I get one again. I know it
doesn't really answer your question. I don't know if all apps work this way,
but it's worth a try.

Google Play Books: Page Selection Going Random at Chapter Transitions

2014-08-15 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all,

I'm having a difficulty that I don't remember ever having before, but I haven't 
used this app in a little while.

When I reach a chapter transition with speech muted and using my Braille 
display, Google Play Books starts flipping rapidly through the pages. If speech 
is on, this doesn't happen. Has anyone else experienced this? I've already 
tried taking the app out of the app switcher and rebooting my iPod, but this 
doesn't have any effect.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Teresa

 created because health workers can look at a chart and see where you are on 
 the chart compared with the average. BMI does not take into account bone 
 density, body fat compared with muscle, and so forth. Muscle weighs more than 
 fat, so just being focused on weight can be unhealthy. And yes, any change in 
 the weight, even by a few numbers to the right of the decimal point, will 
 change the BMI number.

 Hi Neil, 
 
 I set up my scale a couple of days ago. It was absolutely accurate regarding
 my weight. The glitch was with the calculation of my BMI. I weighed myself
 twice. There was less than a half pound difference in the two weights.
 However, there was an 8% difference regarding my BMI. I called Fit Bit
 regarding the discrepancy.  I happened to get someone that could have been
 new or just doesn't understand body weight and BMI. She said the reason for
 the 8% increase in my BMI was due to the 6/10's of a pound increase in one
 of the weights. Do you have any idea whether metal implants could affect the
 BMI calculation? I have quite a bit of metal. I have a totally artificial
 ankle, two hip implants and a spinal cord stimulator with a battery. 
 
 I did contact the company for my spinal cord stimulator. They said some
 people have noticed a small surge in stimulation. I did turn the device off
 while weighing myself. 
 
 Fit Bit is going to send a new scale. I appreciate that very much. Just
 trying to figure out if this is going to be an ongoing problem due to the
 metal. 
 
 Thank you,

 All,
 
 Have been using the FitBit Aria now for just over a year, brilliant device,
 easy to setup using Voice Over and the FitBit iOS app, and as others have
 said, not only accurate, but, through the app you maintain a record of your
 weight, BMI and other key stats, which is useful and interesting.
 
 This also goes towards the app being more accurate when counting your steps
 etc, plus, calories burned when walking and exercising, after all, a lighter
 person may use less or more energy to excercise etc.
 
 The scales can be linked to up to 8 FitBit accounts making this a great unit
 for the family, I also like the fact that I, for the first time in my life,
 am able to weigh myself in absolute privacy.

Hi Maria, this is one of those things where it might pay to have sighted
assistance the first time you do it, but once you know how, it's easily
done. I pop sims in and out of my devices all the time when I travel, so i
don't get hit by extortionate roaming charges.

It's really easy to do with the right tool. There's a sim tray on the side
of the device. You pop the Apple Sim removal tool into a tiny round hole,
press, and the tray pops out. I'd do it on a flat surface because the
nanosims can be easily lost.

I understand that with some iPhones in some markets, Apple does not bundle
the sim removal tool with the iPhone. It's standard in New Zealand and I
suspect it will be standard in Australia. I don't recall if a sim removal
tool came with my Mini or not. They're really small and can easily be missed
in the box.

If you can't find the sim removal tool, a paperclip usually does it.

Best of luck.

RE: Facetime on ipad mini

2014-08-15 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Andrew,

As I said, make sure you have apps enabled in Settings, General, spotlight
Search. I guess you could always try and search for another app like Notes
or App Store and if they show up in Spotlight Search then obviously apps are
included in your search.

Alternatively, if you know handwriting you could turn the rotor to
handwriting (this has to also be enabled first in Voiceover Settings, Rotor)
and then write an F onto your screen with your finger. When I do this,
Facetime is the first app which shows up, if I do a 2-finger swipe down to
check other apps I have installed and which start with F, I get
Facebook, Fleksy, and Flight View.

Dear Sieghard,

Thank you so much for these careful instructions.  I'm going mad here
because I still cannot find Facetime on my iPad mini that runs the latest
iOS.  Searching for facetime in the spotlight did not reveal any results
beyond the e-mails which we have exchanged regarding facetime.  I've been
through all my home screens and folders with a fine toothcomb and still
haven't found it.  I can't have deleted it, canI?

It's not a matter of life and death so please ignore me.

Many thanks for trying.  i've certainly learnt a few things from these
difficulties, and that in itself is a great help.

 Andrew,
 
 You find Facetime in the Settings app. Swipe about 10 or 12 times past
 General, just before Facetime is Phone and Messages.
 
 As far as finding the Facetime app, you can use Spotlight Search. Do the
 following:
 
 1. Touch any app on your home screen, then do a 3-finger swipe down to
bring
 up Spotlight search
 2. Type Facetime into the search field at the top of the screen.
 3. Review the search results in the middle of the screen. If you find
 Facetime and it is followed by something like Utilities that means it is
 located in a folder called Utilities. If it says nothing it means it's on
 one of your home screens and not in a folder.
 
 Facetime is an iOS stock app so it can't be deleted and it's definitely
 going to be somewhere.
 
 Oh, one more thing, if you don't have a heading called Applications in
 your spotlight search results, you might not have that enabled. You would
 have to go to Settings, General, Spotlight search to check that. Spotlight
 search is the fourth item in General Settings after About, Software Update
 and SIRI.

 Are you using iOS 7 on your iPad Mini or is it an original iPad Mini 
 which is still running iOS 6? The Facetime app was only added in iOS 7.
 
 However, you don't really need a Facetime app to make a Facetime call.
 Please note also that Facetime Audio is another feature which was 
 added in iOS 7, in iOS 6 one can only do regular Facetime calls which
 include video.
 
 If you are running iOS 7 then maybe your Facetime app was moved to 
 another home screen or into a folder.

RE: inserting symn card in ipad miny

2014-08-15 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
The Sim removal tool is included here in Canada as well. I usurped a small
plastic box which at one point contained these really thin breath freshener
strips and I always have it in my passport wallet with my SIM removal tool
when I travel. If I go to a country where I buy a local SIM I put my
Canadian Nano SIM into this container together with the tool. Then when I'm
an hour or so from landing again in Canada I put the airline blanket over my
lap in case I drop the Sim and I change it. As Jonathan said, it's easily
done once you practiced a couple of times. SIM cards have one corner which
is cut off a bit and that corner goes towards the top of the iPhone and
towards the outside.
