Re: Dots 1 and 2 reversed in Tabletop Mode?
I don't think the dots reversal has to do with which phone one is using, though I suppose this is possible. I don't think we know what has caused some to have the dot reversal but I believe Alex mentioned that his originally worked correctly so there has to be other factors involved. I would think the larger size of the 6+ might have something to do with braille appearing to be across the bottom and not in any ind of V shape but we don't really know even that for sure at this point. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

Maybe you've already done that. What I didn't believe was that the dots in tabletop had to be in a V rather than in a straight line and it appears that the possibility of both configurations has now been confirmed. It does seem like this app is very maleable; it's just that we don't know what the rules are for making change. i like were mine is now so I hope it doesn't change for me before we figure out the rules. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

Hello folks. I usually don't post on here much. However, I am very displeased with Apple. For a company that is very Reputable, I expect a lot more out of apple. I am extremely disappointed. I just might let them know this. First, when a person dials a number manually with voice-over, the numbers stick. I don't know if this is fixed in IOS 8.02 or not. Second, I use my blue tooth keyboard a lot. Now my key board does not type or activate items with Voice-over. I can navigate on the screen. But not type or activate items. On previous updates the issues mentioned above didn't exist. I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they couldn't figure out the issue. I am not mad at the technicians at the store. I am upset with the developers of Apple. They should know better. Also what's this crap of them updating the software and then having the cell phone service not working. If apple keeps this bull crap going on they will lose customer such as myself who have grown to love Apple products. I might email apple and let them know this. If Apple continues to do foolish things like this on their updates, then I will switch to a droid. What a sad day that would be.

Re: Dots 1 and 2 reversed in Tabletop Mode?
,When in table top mode, the keys are at an angle. I am writing this message in table top mode. dot 3 is in the left back corner. Dot 6 is in the right back corner. Dot 1 is across the left front from the left edge of the screen to the midpoint. Dot 4 is from the right edge to the midpoint connecting with dot 1. Dots 2 and 5 go from the back adge of dots 1 and 4 to the sides, and on the back edge between dots 3 and 6. In other wordss, the front edge is dots 1 4 when tracking from left to right. The back edge is dots 3 2 5 6 from left to right. Across the middle of the screen from leht to right is dots 2 and 5. The braille input works quite well once one gets used to it. I am brailling almost as fast on my iphone as I do on my braille dispaly keyboard. One final note: I am finding that right swiping for space must be a little more of a movement or it is registered as a dot press. I find space easier in away mode rather than tabletop mode.

I still think it's clever how they arranged this, and also see how it gets confusing. So, I'm going to repeat something I said, and paraphrased someone who put it more verbosely, though still concise and right. Tip the face of the phone towards you first, then put it down into table mode, and the dots are then in the right order. It's a pity we couldn't get a sighted description of the shape of the buttons at this point, the 6 areas cover pretty well the entire screen except for a gutter between, to separate them. This V layout business is necessary to get so many fingers on a phone screen at once, so pretty sure they don't all line up along a long edge, though that would be good on an iPad, along a short edge even. If you don't try too hard to twist the wrists to line up the hands with the phone, they will fall into the V shape and line up with the buttons quite naturally. I suppose the effort is trying not to think of the V shape, but just fingers on dot keys; and just do it. Those with the greatest success, have done just that.

Hi, Tabletop mode requires your fingers to be in kind of a V shape, so try positioning them that way. Also, you can hold one finger on the screen to start an exploring mode. It will stay in this mode as long as you leave at least one finger on screen. Try that so you can find the dots. My guess is that they aren't really reversed, but they seem to be because the dots aren't quite where you expect them to be.

For the first little while that I had my iPhone 4, I used a Pixelspec HD case with a Solona screen protector, but the protector kept getting pushed up on the sides by the case. I ended up removing the protector and the case, and switching to an OtterBox Defender. When that broke some time after getting my iPhone 4S, (the case lasted about four years for me) I moved to a Griffin Survivor. When I get my new iPhone six, I'll most likely be moving back to the OtterBox defender again, since I like that style of case and clip better then the Griffin Survivor. The Defender allows easier access to the camera then does the Survivor. This was by design, as the Survivor has been made to comply with higher military specifications in regards to how much dirt, dust, moisture, etc. to protect against. The Survivors clip also grips the case in such a way that the charging port is unable to be accessed, and the Defender does not. I haven't yet decided if I'm going to get a tactile screen protector from Speeddots that works with my iPhone 6's Defender case. Lol. It looks like I've made up my mind that I'm going to get an OtterBox cup of defender case for my new iPhone, as I'm talking like I have already decided to do so.

Re: Dots 1 and 2 reversed in Tabletop Mode?
I lifted the following off AppleVis, think it might have a valid point, like resetting or clearing a previous calibration. only a flunked calibration could have produced this mess. So an antidote or revert to dot positions of factory default, would be useful, and hopefully, this is it. One thing I didn't see mentioned is that you can double-tap all six dots to recalibrate the dot positions. On my iPad, the default dot placement was rather weird. I guess whoever set up the initial calibration must have had their hands in odd places, either that or I am holding it in a weird way and don't know it. Anyway, I have found that I've had to recalibrate the dot positions a few times while practicing to get the hang of things. - Original Message - From: Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, September 27, 2014 9:43 PM Subject: Re: Dots 1 and 2 reversed in Tabletop Mode? I've used the explore mode already, and it showed exactly what I already knew: the dots are reversed. The dot closest to the lower edge of the phone on the right is dot 4, as it should be, and immediately next to that is... dot 2. Just above and to the right of dot 4 is dot 5, right where I'd expect it to be. Above and just left of the (misplaced) dot 2 is... dot 1. Dot 3 is across from dot 6, just where it should be. I am comfortable with the shape of the keyboard, but the fact remains that dots 1 and 2 are swapped somehow. I used to see this if I calibrated in Tabletop mode, but now I see it all the time in that mode, whether or not I calibrate.

I still think it's clever how they arranged this, and also see how it gets confusing. So, I'm going to repeat something I said, and paraphrased someone who put it more verbosely, though still concise and right. Tip the face of the phone towards you first, then put it down into table mode, and the dots are then in the right order. It's a pity we couldn't get a sighted description of the shape of the buttons at this point, the 6 areas cover pretty well the entire screen except for a gutter between, to separate them. This V layout business is necessary to get so many fingers on a phone screen at once, so pretty sure they don't all line up along a long edge, though that would be good on an iPad, along a short edge even. If you don't try too hard to twist the wrists to line up the hands with the phone, they will fall into the V shape and line up with the buttons quite naturally. I suppose the effort is trying not to think of the V shape, but just fingers on dot keys; and just do it. Those with the greatest success, have done just that.

Hi, Tabletop mode requires your fingers to be in kind of a V shape, so try positioning them that way. Also, you can hold one finger on the screen to start an exploring mode. It will stay in this mode as long as you leave at least one finger on screen. Try that so you can find the dots. My guess is that they aren't really reversed, but they seem to be because the dots aren't quite where you expect them to be.

They tell you how to answer calls and that in the lock and home screens as a sighted person, but has anyone figured out how to do the same when Voiceover is on?

Re: Alex voice, how is it?
I personally didn't like it. It hangs when closing certain apps, and lags often when reading. I am running him on a 5S 32GB. Maybe after some of the updates he will be fine.

Re: viewing text messages in the lock screen
What you can do now is reply to the text message on the lock screen. To do this locate the message, flick up or down with one finger to reply and double tap. At my end it seems sluggish overall with VoiceOver stuttering after each letter. I will report this to Apple once I have a chance to compare this with the same feature on my iPad Mini. For now though I do it like you could always do; double tap on the message and reply in the Messages app. Sent from my laptop On 23/09/2014 04:12, Jed Barton wrote: Hey guys, I thought i saw some place, you can read a text message in the lock screen?

Yes, there are quirks. It's best to type in a text field with QuickNav off. You can toggle it by pressing the two side arrow keys simultaneously on the keyboard.

I am just guessing here, I know the first hour I spent with the Braille Note I felt strange with that configuration but now it is fine, anything beats a slate and stylus.

That flattened v shape description never really made sense to me even though I know what a V shape is. maybe that's why this is working for me where Mbraille didn't; I never bothered to try to picture any kind of V when I started with the built-in input where I struggled to do that with mbraille. I'm not at all saying that's not accurate, just that it never worked for me. If there's a curve instead of being a straight line, it's not enough for me to feel that it is slanted and it does feel like a Perkins to me. But I imagine that a lot of this depends on your finger length, hand size and how you place your fingers. I have no explanation for your dot reversal; I might have briefly seen this in explore mode if I tried to move the finger I was holding down but otherwise I haven't seen this and I sincerely hope I never do.

Some of this depends on calibration, which I really haven't seemed to need and I think there is some leeway for where you put your fingers unlike the virtual keyboard where your fingers must always be placed in an exact place. In tabletop mode, I don't understand your description of dots 3 and 6 being across from each other because in tabletop mode we are not looking at two columns along the short sides facing each other bugt at a row going along the long side. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

Re: Ios8 02 with keyboard
Hi, There is a bug in iOS 8 that everyone has been talking about. It is all over the archives of this list. The best thing to do is to always have Quick Nav off when typing no matter where you are. You may also not get your feedback the way you are used to in some apps. I have mine on characters for hardware keyboards, but it only speaks the words after I type them. You can also try going into settings, general, keyboards, then add a keyboard even if you don't use it for a while. You can delete it in a moment. Now go into the notes app and compose a note. Now make sure quick Nav is off and press command plus spacebar to move throughout the two keyboards you have onscreen. I have added the eMojy keyboard and the normal Apple onscreen keyboard, and I just switch between them a few times, and then the keyboard should work with Quick Nav off. I hope this helps you a little bit. Great luck! I am using my Logitech keyboard right now and I have an iPhone 5 and an iPad mini with retina and they all do the same thing. Thank you so much!

Re: Ios8 02 with keyboard
Good advice Jen. But I can't even use space with the command and options to activate something. It is really earitating conserding I use the key board for a lot of things. The people at the Apple store don't even know how to fix it. On 9/28/14, Jennie Facer jennie.fa...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, There is a bug in iOS 8 that everyone has been talking about. It is all over the archives of this list. The best thing to do is to always have Quick Nav off when typing no matter where you are. You may also not get your feedback the way you are used to in some apps. I have mine on characters for hardware keyboards, but it only speaks the words after I type them. You can also try going into settings, general, keyboards, then add a keyboard even if you don't use it for a while. You can delete it in a moment. Now go into the notes app and compose a note. Now make sure quick Nav is off and press command plus spacebar to move throughout the two keyboards you have onscreen. I have added the eMojy keyboard and the normal Apple onscreen keyboard, and I just switch between them a few times, and then the keyboard should work with Quick Nav off. I hope this helps you a little bit. Great luck! I am using my Logitech keyboard right now and I have an iPhone 5 and an iPad mini with retina and they all do the same thing. Thank you so much!

Re: issues I have with the new update.
I have not been following this thread, but whomever wrote the original message has not been paying attention since a solution to the bluetooth keyboard problem has been posted several times before yesterday. Yes, the keys sticking in the phone keypad is an annoying problem. Yes, iOS 8 is perhaps more buggy than iOS 7 was but those of us who updated were warned by several people on this list to not upgrade if you were not willing to deal with some very annoying bugs. So if after updating, they want to spend their money on another platform, that is their choice.

Re: Phone refuses to load.
Hi Del. You may have to force the phone into DFU mode. To do this, after connecting the phone to iTunes, hold down the Home and Power buttons together for about six seconds, then release the power button while keeping the Home button held down until iTunes detects the phone in DFU mode. This should take about another 10 seconds. Jonathan. Sent from my iPhone On Sep 29, 2014, at 3:23 AM, Bluesman02 bluesma...@ntlworld.com wrote: Hi Jonathan, Many thanks for your reply.

RE: the 16 or the 64G?
I got the 16GB 6 Plus. I really meant to pre-order the 64GB, but it wasn't available when I was ordering on the first day, so I told myself the 16GB would be okay. And, in my case, maybe it indeed will be. I do have the KNFB Reader on my phone, and I don't store documents or books and things of that nature. Also, with the 16GB, those free apps such as Pages were indeed not installed, although I guess I could get them if I wanted. When I checked my 16GB iPhone 4S running iOS 8.0.2, it showed the capacity as being 12.7GB, and the amount available as 10.0GB. Then, when I setup my iPhone 6 Plus 16GB by restoring from an encrypted iTunes backup after updating it to iOS 8.0.2, that phone showed the capacity as 11.8GB and the amount available as being 9.2GB. There was a difference of 2.7GB used on my 4S, as opposed to 2.6 on my 6 Plus, but I'm guessing that the plus usage will increase up to 2.7 or more once I start using the apps on my phone. But, even if an over the air iOS update takes between 5 and 6GB to install, I might just be okay, or of course could always use iTunes where less space would be needed. - Original Message - From: kliphskor...@icloud.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Sat, 27 Sep 2014 06:22:31 -0500 Subject: RE: the 16 or the 64G?

It all depends on your expected usage. That is, if you never store music, movies, audio books, tons of voices, or huge apps on your phone, 16GB is fine. If, however, the extra 48GB is worth the $100 so you *can* fit all the stuff I just listed, that's fine too. Basically, there's no functional difference between the two, and the 64GB is $100 more.

RE: THE EMAIL BUG IS GONE!!!
Hello, I read so many messages about this and wonder if I am the only person who doesn’t have this. I don’t recall ever having an issue with the Delete button not doing what it’s supposed to do after I touch it and double tap right from iOS 8 Beta 1 back in June. Last Sunday I downgraded to iOS 7.1.2 and then upgraded again to iOS 8 and my new installation of iOS 8 is still OK regarding this and I actually would say there are no changes, e.g. the new install didn’t fix anything but also didn’t break anything.

KNFB Reader Translating Languages To English
Hello, I was wondering if anyone who has purchased the KNFB Reader app and has scanned materials in another language and used the translation feature yet? There are times when I may only be able to find a book that is in a foreign language that I want to read in English. I'm curious how well this works. One example that comes to mind is when I travel overseas and find items that I may want to purchase, but I have no idea what it is and the shop keepers are not able to speak English. This would be a nice addition when traveling abroard. Thanks. Eileen Sent from my iPhone -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

I just might let them know this. First, when a person dials a number manually with voice-over, the numbers stick. I don't know if this is fixed in IOS 8.02 or not. Second, I use my blue tooth keyboard a lot. Now my key board does not type or activate items with Voice-over. I can navigate on the screen. But not type or activate items. On previous updates the issues mentioned above didn't exist. I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they couldn't figure out the issue. I am not mad at the technicians at the store.. I am upset with the developers of Apple. They should know better. Also what's this crap of them updating the software and then having the cell phone service not working. If apple keeps this bull crap going on they will lose customer such as myself who have grown to love Apple products. I might email apple and let them know this. If Apple continues to do foolish things like this on their updates, then I will switch to a droid. What a sad day that would be.

RE: moving apps around in IOS 8?
Hi Christopher, When this was first brought up I tried to move an app in the bottom row and it worked fine. Until then I have noticed that I can move some apps out of the bottom row or to a different place in the bottom row, but othes I can't. On my second home screen I have 4 folders in the bottom row and I can move all of them around as much as I please. On my first home screen I can move 2 out of the 4 apps. It would be interesting to know if others experience this inconsistent behavior as well, all you have to do is double tap and hold on each app in the bottom row and just see if you get the moving... followed by the app name announcement. If you just hear the triple tone and nothing else it doesn't work, if you hear the triple tone followed by Moving and the app name then you can let go and press the home key to get out of this mode since it would work, but you don't actually have to move the app of course.

But, I should have explained the situation a bit better with a particular contact. I've sent a contact request to someone to join me on skype, and the person did not respond. Now, if I want to remove that particular contact, all I find in the more menu, is block, resend the request, or cancel. Now for the question: how do I remove this particular contact? There seems to be no delete button here, and no matter what I do, I can not seem to remove this contact. Any other contact where I have had contact with the person can be removed, but not a contact where there was no communication as yet. What am I missing this time round?

When the contact opens, double tap on the contacts name again at the top which will show you their profile 3. Now at the bottom underneath the profile are 2 buttons, Add to Favorites and More.

RE: New Skype On The iPhone
Hi Christopher, That is correct, but if you flick down to Accept and then double tap it still is necessary to unlock the phone before the call is connected. I don't know if this is the case for non Voiceover users, but it's too bad it doesn't just connect the call from the lock screen. Also, if I have a text message notification, flick to Delete and then double tap it does not get deleted. If I unlock my phone after doing that and open the Messages app that text message is still there.

RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?
Hi Tom, As Jonathan pointed out, it used to say Clear Section and you double tapped and then you got Confirm Clear Section and you had to double tap again. Now it just says Confirm Clear Section and you double tap then make sure you double tap again on the Confirm Clear Section for the same notification of course and it should work. What I mean is that if you double tap Confirm Clear Section for Messages and then you double tap a second time but you are actually tapping on Confirm Clear Section for Mail then of course it won't work. For me at least a fast one-finger triple tap also works 100%, but double tapping and double tapping again also works. Maybe others can try this and post feedback to see if it seems to work for everybody or not.

RE: Ios8 02 with keyboard
There is no fix, at least not one that makes it so it was like before. People have reported that installing a second virtual keyboard and switching to it using the touch screen then switching back to the US English keyboard helps. If you don't have a second keyboard installed, go to Settings, General, Keyboard then tap on Add and select something like the Emoji keyboard. Now go to any edit field, at the bottom next to the More Numbers you will have a button where you can toggle back and forth between the English keyboard and Emoji keyboard. Do that at least once, e.g. switch to Emoji, then back to English. Now try your bluetooth keyboard and hopefully it will work. Remember that you are in an Edit field and want to type text you have to turn Quick Nav off otherwise it won't work.

It is all over the archives of this list. The best thing to do is to always have Quick Nav off when typing no matter where you are. You may also not get your feedback the way you are used to in some apps. I have mine on characters for hardware keyboards, but it only speaks the words after I type them. You can also try going into settings, general, keyboards, then add a keyboard even if you don't use it for a while. You can delete it in a moment. Now go into the notes app and compose a note. Now make sure quick Nav is off and press command plus spacebar to move throughout the two keyboards you have onscreen. I have added the eMojy keyboard and the normal Apple onscreen keyboard, and I just switch between them a few times, and then the keyboard should work with Quick Nav off. I hope this helps you a little bit. Great luck! I am using my Logitech keyboard right now and I have an iPhone 5 and an iPad mini with retina and they all do the same thing. Thank you so much!

RE: Phone refuses to load.
Hi Del, How long has it been where it is showing the Apple? Also, did you do a few preparations before installing? Here are the steps you should always perform: 1. Make sure all your apps are updated. 2. Bring up the app switcher with a double press of the home key and close all apps. 3. Connect to iTunes and, if you sync media and/or apps, do a Transfer All Purchases and a Sync, then do a backup. If you don't usually connect to iTunes to sync music or apps, at least do an iCloud backup. 4. As a minimum, power down your phone completely, wait 30 seconds and restart it. Possibly even better is to go to Settings, General, Reset and tap on Reset All Network Settings. This will tell you that all your network settings will be set to factory default, you have to confirm and then this will be done and the phone will reboot. Keep in mind that doing this will require you to reconnect to your WiFi network and you will have to make sure you know the password to do so. 5. Now go to Settings, General, Software update and update iOS. As Jonathan pointed out, if your 4S is really stuck and hasn't come back after a couple of hours, then connecting your iPhone to a computer with iTunes is the only way to fix it.

RE: issues I have with the new update.
Hi Kevin, I agree with Gary, send your bug reports to Apple, email them, call them, do both, the more the marrier. The email address for Apple accessibility is very easy, it's accessibil...@apple.com. The phone number for the Apple Accessibility Department is 1-877-204-3930. As you said, remember that just as the people at the Apple Store, the people at the accessibility department who answer the phones are not the ones who are in charge. While it's important to let them know that you feel iOS 8 is a very disappointing release with lots of bugs, it's also important to be courteous and not rude. As for switching to an Android phone, well, what can I say, you might love it or you might regret it even more than upgrading to iOS 8. But if you think the tapping is greener on the other side of the iOS fence then you are probably mistaken since I'm sure Android has its own issues. Oh yes, by the way, there were lots of warnings out there regarding upgrading especially if you use a bluetooth keyboard a lot and I posted several times about the number sticking bug when you dial a phone number saying that if you use your iPhone a lot to make phone calls where you dial the numbers rather than using your contact list then it might be much better not to upgrade until these bugs are fixed. I totally agree that Apple hasn't exactly impressed with the iOS 8 update, but it's everybody's responsibility to gather the facts before upgrading and the facts about all these major bugs were out there and easy to find and read about. In addition to that you could have downgraded until at least 8 days after the upgrade and I posted how to do so last Sunday and repeated twice since then as to how you can find that post. Once you downloaded the iOS 7.1.2 file downgrading via iTunes takes less than 15 minutes. But Apple stopped signing the firmware I think on Thursday so it's too late now.

I just might let them know this. First, when a person dials a number manually with voice-over, the numbers stick. I don't know if this is fixed in IOS 8.02 or not. Second, I use my blue tooth keyboard a lot. Now my key board does not type or activate items with Voice-over. I can navigate on the screen. But not type or activate items. On previous updates the issues mentioned above didn't exist. I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they couldn't figure out the issue. I am not mad at the technicians at the store. I am upset with the developers of Apple. They should know better. Also what's this crap of them updating the software and then having the cell phone service not working. If apple keeps this bull crap going on they will lose customer such as myself who have grown to love Apple products. I might email apple and let them know this.

Hello folks. I usually don't post on here much. However, I am very displeased with Apple. For a company that is very Reputable, I expect a lot more out of apple. I am extremely disappointed. I just might let them know this. First, when a person dials a number manually with voice-over, the numbers stick. I don't know if this is fixed in IOS 8.02 or not. Second, I use my blue tooth keyboard a lot. Now my key board does not type or activate items with Voice-over. I can navigate on the screen. But not type or activate items. On previous updates the issues mentioned above didn't exist. I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they couldn't figure out the issue. I am not mad at the technicians at the store. I am upset with the developers of Apple. They should know better. Also what's this crap of them updating the software and then having the cell phone service not working. If apple keeps this bull crap going on they will lose customer such as myself who have grown to love Apple products. I might email apple and let them know this. If Apple continues to do foolish things like this on their updates, then I will switch to a droid. What a sad day that would be.

Re: Dots 1 and 2 reversed in Tabletop Mode?
Okay, but if you thoroughly read this thread you will know that this is not true for everybody. Some people are having dot reversals.

So, I'm going to repeat something I said, and paraphrased someone who put it more verbosely, though still concise and right. Tip the face of the phone towards you first, then put it down into table mode, and the dots are then in the right order. It's a pity we couldn't get a sighted description of the shape of the buttons at this point, the 6 areas cover pretty well the entire screen except for a gutter between, to separate them. This V layout business is necessary to get so many fingers on a phone screen at once, so pretty sure they don't all line up along a long edge, though that would be good on an iPad, along a short edge even. If you don't try too hard to twist the wrists to line up the hands with the phone, they will fall into the V shape and line up with the buttons quite naturally. I suppose the effort is trying not to think of the V shape, but just fingers on dot keys; and just do it. Those with the greatest success, have done just that.

Hi, Tabletop mode requires your fingers to be in kind of a V shape, so try positioning them that way. Also, you can hold one finger on the screen to start an exploring mode. It will stay in this mode as long as you leave at least one finger on screen. Try that so you can find the dots. My guess is that they aren't really reversed, but they seem to be because the dots aren't quite where you expect them to be.

NFL mobile strikes again!
This morning I realized that NFL Mobile had disappeared from my iPhone 6 or was never there; haven't looked at my 5S. So I downloaded and opened it and got the screen from Verizon and then their text message. But it absolutely will not send and if I hit cancel I just end up going through the dialong again and the message comes up again. I went into Messages and sent a message out to a friend to make sure there wasn't something wrong on my end; it sent out fine. With this Verizon message, the send button never dims; it never changes or says sending; it just sits there. I am so fed up with this app at the moment! I have tried twice this year to communicate with Support about this and the replies I got both times were not really relevant at all to the issues I stated; it was if they had a set of prepared scripts or lines to choose from because they did not really interact with my information which was very thoroughly stated. I do have NFL Now on my iphone for better or for worse but right now NFL Mobile is not functioning because I can't get the text message to Verizon to send. . I even deleted it and tried downloading the app again with the same results. This gets stranger! NFL Mobile is still on my 5S and appears to be fine. I have no idea why this app didn't sync to my 6+.

Then I was offered a case, I went with Otterbox, of course, And some other device, one was Bose Bluetooth speakers. In addition the man told us the android tablets were free because I bought a new iPhone, so my cousin who has wanted one for a while got it set up for her. I came home, had a difficult time finding the place to plug in the lightning cable first I knew it was on the bottom and figured the case was covering it, I found that but then I have never been particularly good with the cable on my iPad so. Finally got iTunes up restored all my apps. Sadly I lost all my Bard books and I don't always remember what I had planned to read. I see access to my iBook's is still there but Read2go is empty and I have not looked at Audible just yet. Then, because I had to give my apple Password at Verizon I decided to change it. Finally got there and I can't tell you how many times it told me it was either not strong, did not a capital letter or that they did not match. I know it is security but it is a true drag if I have no clue what it is. My 4s went for trade, but my late Husband's 5 they would not take because it had not been wiped and I tried the passwords he often used but I can't get into his phone, have no clue what he was using, probably something to keep me out, only because I put a Diabetes app on his phone (at his request no less) when he was sleeping. The upshot is it is a brick to me, they can't turn off the find my iPhone without being able to access his account and based on the trouble I had this evening with my own password, I can't imagine how to fix it so I can take it back to them. I suppose I could use his apple ID. Say I forgot the password and change it provided I can think of one they will accept that it, something I can remember and not a jumbo.

RE: Light detector doesn't work for me either
I think this might just be another bug in iOS 8. I read that this one also affects sighted users and it seems that some apps just randomly can't access the camera even though they are allowed to. The good news is that if this is not isolated to Voiceover then a fix will probably be more likely to come sooner rather than later. I would try the following: 1. Turn off Camera in Privacy for Light Detector, then delete the app. 2. Throw everything out of the app switcher and reboot your phone, i.e. turn it off completely, wait 30 seconds and turn it on again. 3. Download the app again from the App Store and hopefully when you open it the first time you will be prompted to allow the app to use the camera and it will then work.

Re: the 16 or the 64G?
With the next plan from ATT, you don't have to keep getting a new phone. Once you have paid for your phone, your bill goes back to normal. That is what I was told anyway, and is the reason I went with that plan for this phone.

I think its an overall trend with smartphones. There are lots of success Androy phone model, no longer give you te option of 32gb. They either give you the 16gb or 64gb (discount Samsung). As far as why it is the case, i'm not sure. I thought it will make more sense for apple to have 32gb, 64gb and 128gb. But who knows what behind the brain of it. Maybe, we Apple might want to retain the 32gb soully for iPads.

I was a bit annoyed about having to go for the 64GB 6 at first, but when I found out that its price was inline with the previous 32GB price it didn't seem as bad. Personally I'd rather Apple introduced a cheaper 32GB model instead of simply dropping that capacity, but with the 6 pricing, your actually getting more storage for your money than you were before.

RE: I say that you should go for it - Re: KNFB Reader, First Impressions
As far as resetting the password for an Apple Id, I wouldn't be surprised if Apple had something in place for situations like this where somebody passes away and a spouse needs to get access. I would call Apple and ask.

I can do well from my computer, typing on the 6 since it is larger is a bit of a challenge but doing so on the IPad is really the challenge, I keep hiding the keyboard when I want to hit the return key which does not help me at all. Since the storm last night kept me up, I tried to set up keychain on the iPad, got stuck then finally got the less with the code, but I am and always have been terrible at numbers, so I had to work at it six times before I managed to remember the number and get it input correctly. I can't figure out the fingerprint thing at all it seems and when I called my cell a while ago the iPad did not allow me to answer but I did not see a choice for that under the Handoff settings.

When I got to Verizon they had one iPhone 6 left, 128 GB which was above what I need but it was the same price as the 64 and while I was there since I changed to the Edge plan (next year I have another new phone) plus well it just sounded okay with me. Then I was offered a case, I went with Otterbox, of course, And some other device, one was Bose Bluetooth speakers. In addition the man told us the android tablets were free because I bought a new iPhone, so my cousin who has wanted one for a while got it set up for her. I came home, had a difficult time finding the place to plug in the lightning cable first I knew it was on the bottom and figured the case was covering it, I found that but then I have never been particularly good with the cable on my iPad so. Finally got iTunes up restored all my apps. Sadly I lost all my Bard books and I don't always remember what I had planned to read. I see access to my iBook's is still there but Read2go is empty and I have not looked at Audible just yet. Then, because I had to give my apple Password at Verizon I decided to change it. Finally got there and I can't tell you how many times it told me it was either not strong, did not a capital letter or that they did not match. I know it is security but it is a true drag if I have no clue what it is. My 4s went for trade, but my late Husband's 5 they would not take because it had not been wiped and I tried the passwords he often used but I can't get into his phone, have no clue what he was using, probably something to keep me out, only because I put a Diabetes app on his phone (at his request no less) when he was sleeping. The upshot is it is a brick to me, they can't turn off the find my iPhone without being able to access his account and based on the trouble I had this evening with my own password, I can't imagine how to fix it so I can take it back to them. I suppose I could use his apple ID. Say I forgot the password and change it provided I can think of one they will accept that it, something I can remember and not a jumbo. I need someone to help me get it on my WIFI, had to change its password when I had to exchange the CenturyLink box last April and no one stayed around long enough to read it so I could get it in braille and my scanning ability is
RE: Notification center, anyone having this problem?
Yes, you can delete individual notifications this way, e.g. if you have mail notifications set to show the 5 most recent messages then you can swipe down and double tap to delete each one, but you have to do it 5 times to clear the entire section. If you want to clear the section all at once you can still do so using the “Confirm Clear Section” button as it has been described before, either double tap and then double tap again or triple tap once.
