I have been using this iPhone 5s, for the last year. Using 7.1.2 since march 
of this year. Of course, I had bunches of problems when IOs 7.0 was release. 
But since march, my phone has been working perfectly until now. Maybe in 
march 2015, I will get my iPhone working fine again. But will be again, 6 
months of problems, and 6 months of good use of my iPhone.

I have not been following your iPhone problems, so please answer one
question for me.  Did you ever exchange your phone for another unit or is
this the same phone which has been giving you problems?

Raul, I don't want to be arguing with you , really it is not helpful for the
list. But I have to clarify that my porpoise is , advice and help everybody,
even me.
I don't know if you remember, since I started writing emails to the list,
regarding IOs problems, that I have been saying, that if we are customers of
apple, we should push apple to do a better job. It is my porpoise. If we
stay quiet, apple will not improve the quality of IOs. Do you Remember IOs
6?, it had some bugs, remember Ios 7? It had more bugs than IOs 6, and look
IOs 8, the worse IOs that the customers has seen. Looks like every year the
quality is lower, and lower, and lower.
Why is it happening?
Easy, because apple is not feeling that they need to improve the IOs
quality.
A few days I read on the list, someone saying that apple is doing a good
job, because in a few weeks, they have release 2 updates of IOs 8. I don't
see this issue on the same way. If they have to fix things, it is because
there were things to be fix. Again Raul, if we always are happy with
whatever apple is doing, always they will decrease the quality.
My advice to everybody, is write to apple, call them, make a lot of noise,
then they will take care about what are the problems of their customers, but
been good boys, quiet, they will not feel the need to improve anything.
I hope that you see now what is my porpoise writing not positive messages.
Pablo tired of IOs bugs.

I think he means, he usually means:-

if it's not advice that is useful or helps someone, then it serves no real
purpose on the list.   There have been timely warnings about bugs to save a
few falling over them,  that at least was useful.
He encourages us to ask ourselves - does this add to the knowledge presented
so far.

I think that about summarises it,  hope I don't go getting flack for saying

Hi Raul.
In the rules of the list, I don't see anywhere anything saying that the
messages posted to the list, should be something that is positive for apple.
Are you owner of apple?
No, right?
Ok, so if I am in disagreement with the way how apple is handling the
accessibility, something that affect me, you, and everybody in this email
list. What is your problem?
That my emails are not saying that IOs 8.x is great?
No, it is not great, and you know that.
That the way how apple is pushing everybody to upgrade their devices, not
allowing to reinstall the IOs that the people has already installed is not
fair, is not good?
Well, Raul, maybe it is something that is not positive, but it is true.
That IOs 8.1.1, after I asked here if they fixed the bugs that IOs 8 had,
and after read emails saying that there are some bugs, and other people
saying that IOs 8.1.1 is great, for example Sieghard. Person that looks like
he works with this matter, and has knowledge.
What is your problem  if after read the post in the list, and after see that
I wasn't able to  do a restore of my iPhone with the same version of IOs
7.1.2 that I had installed, I feel me frustrated?
This email list is only for people who works for apple, or people who is
happy  with apple?
No, I don't think so, I understand that this email list is to talk about

Re: notification center

2014-11-30 Thread Gary Petraccaro
I have had a problem with the shift key not responding to a doubletap.  What 
worked for me and which surprised me, btw, was that changing the rate of the 
doubletap made a difference in how the shift key worked.  I had to slow down 
my usual speed.  What I usually did worked for my 7.12 iPhone but not with 
this different 8.1.1 iPhone 5.  Just a thought.

 If you want Alex as your default voice also add US English and download Alex,

Subject: prospective buyer

 

Hello all

I am finally getting ready to enter the new world of advanced technology, as 
best it suits us as visually impaired individuals.

According to my sister who has an old I Phone 4s, the I Phone 
is the only phone to consider in terms of voice over and accessibility. She 
loves hers and has had no trouble with the apps she uses. However, reading 
posts in the last day since I’ve joined is a bit alarming.

I don’t know if one of the issues with an update that renders 
Safari troublesome is something quirky that occurred with a recent update or 
has to do with Safari and voice over as it’s existed for awhile now.

What I will need in a smart phone are features that allow me to do everything 
possible with just a tap or swipe. I do not want to type numbers or letters. In 
addition to being totally blind, my fingers are often numb to the point that I 
cannot identify clothing, numbers on a phone pad, etc. I can move my fingers I 
just can’t identify things easily when they are numb. If I have to type on the 
surface of the phone and search out letters, I will likely be doing myself no 
more good than if I were typing.

 

I need to keep an appointment calendar. I need to keep records and set memos 
and reminders. 

I need to be able to do E Mail by listening to incoming posts 
and by dictating outgoing posts. I’m not interested in texting. Currently I use 
Outlook on a desktop PC. 

I need to do Internet searches, read PDf files, shop, log onto 
Face Book, download Bookshare, NLS, Blind Mice movies, Newsline magazines and 
Newspapers. I might want to check out offerings on Hulu. 

I’d like to be able to easily access audio only

archives of various podcasts of political radio personalities.

Skype works well I hear and some camera features work extremely well on the I 
Phone with voice over. 

 

I was working on a novel this summer and had to stop because 
typing was aggravating the carpal tunnel. I understand that a dictation program 
akin to or by the same people who designed Dragon is part of the I Phone. Does 
it work for more lengthy word processing? 

Beyond that depending on whether or not I buy something through 
a company like Verizon as opposed to buying minutes I would want to use GPS.

I don’t have any help here from anyone that is using features 
specifically useful for a blind individual. My tolerance for fumbling, lags in 
information coming up, buggy software is very very low. I’m certainly capable 
of learning if given proper instruction and by that I mean in person 
instruction by a savvy user. I doubt I’d have the patience to teach myself 
using a reading a manual or help files type approach. Just being honest here! I 
don’t have a lot of hope that anyone from the Verizon store will know what I 
need to know in terms of the voice over features.

I hope to find someone in my area who is using their phone well 
and can demo for me.

I hope many of you here will tell me to go for it.

know if this addresses your problem.
Given all the negative press and overall uproar Apples gift of the U2 album has 
caused, a simple Google search for Removing U2 album from iTunes yielded the 
exact instructions. Just send your friend the following link, it's like 1, 2, 3

Hi all, I don't know how this happened but there is a song from YouTube in my 
control center. When I am editing and trying to do the dictation, the music 
starts to play when I do the double tap to start or stop the dictation. Can 
anyone please please please tell me how to get this thing out of my control

iTunes Match Dilemma

2014-11-30 Thread Destene Noller
Hi Everyone

I have iTunes Match and each time I play a song by double tapping the song 
title, the song appears to download even though I am extremely careful not to 
touch the download button. Can anyone tell me why this is happening? In most 
cases, I want to stream my music. I thought that that was at least one reason 
for paying for the service in the first place--to have a choice whether or not 
to stream! Am I missing some setting perhaps?
Thanks for any suggestions!

Make sure that you have blue tooth turned on when using these GPS apps.  You

Yes, I keep trying it, 200yards and past two other junctions and it still 
thought I was at the previous one.  It mentioned relative house numbers a few 
times, and still missed I'd taken a turn, good job I was on familiar territory! 
 This wasn't even that built up an area.  It missed announcing another 
junction, which I took anyway; then declaired a house number that doesn't exist 
as a close tends to be too short for 3 digit numbers.
I never fail to be amazed at the difference between those that rate it and rave 
about it, and my direct experience which usually leads me to abandon it again 
as next to useless.

It's your choice, there's still no real substitute for a real sense of

 For those wondering, here are the accessibility fixes mentioned by

 1. The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of
 VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial
 release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to
 resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things
 such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon
 Mobile app.
 2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all
 commands/responses appear to be spoken fully.
 3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification
 is received, even when the device is locked.
 4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone
 calls.
 5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback
 when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call.
 6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen
 from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking.
 7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the Details
 screen of message threads that contain attachments.

 It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S
 and the older iPads.

Why it took those redundant steps is beyond me, but it is working now.

If you only are dealing with US currency, EyeNote works as well as money reader.

Plus, it tells you if it is the front or back of the bill.

 myself I don't want to spend the time to have them do it.
 
 Thanks for the info.

Re: to update or not - Re: moderator warning - Re: starting with IOs 8.1.1

2014-11-30 Thread Gary Petraccaro
I have to agree as well.  Case in point:  I was trying to tune into a 
football game on Direct TV for my wife so she would miss as little of her 
game as possible.  I looked for the game, and found a likely channel.  What 
sounded like the game I wanted came on and then the audio blanked.  When my 
wife got back to the tv, she said that there was a notice about a search 
feature of some kind.  There was no sound at all.  When I tried turning the 
receiver off and on, same thing.  I immediately called the 800 number for 
Direct TV and she and I spoke with them to make the point about this being a 
decidedly less than successful way of dealing with the situation.  Btw, the 
notice said to turn to the wrong channel (snicker.  I doubt that any 
changes will be made, but not registering the point would have been 
counterproductive.  Same with Apple Accessibility.  These people are here, 
talk to them.  The people on this list can be helpful, but, if no help is 
forthcoming or no solution, then bug Apple.  They can't respond to a problem 
unless they know about it.

All this is true, but many iPhone users and many members of this list
will point out that the iPhone gives you the best accessibility on a
smart phone. I don't think Pablo or anyone else should have to choose
between the best accessibility experience on a smart phone and putting
up with these bugs in subsequent releases of major versions of IOS. I
don't always agree with Pablo, but I think he has every right to
complain and be frustrated with IOS 7 and now IOS 8. I'm sure Pablo pays
the same for his iPhone as everyone else does. This isn't a cheap
device, and I don't think it's too much to expect that it should work as
documented. I'm not saying it should be perfect or bug free, but I'm
still dealing with a few pretty frustrating bugs over two months after
IOS 8 was released.

Christopher and others,

I agree that Pablo has a point. However, he has made his point dozens of 
time over the last few years and I think many list members are just getting 
tired of hearing his rather radical point of view true as it may be. The 
point is that repeating it on Viphone has about as much effect on Apple as 
beating a dead horse would have on riding it from point A to point B. I 
don't think anybody enjoys the bugs, but maybe it's time for Pablo to start 
a website or Google Plus community or something along these lines with the 
express purpose of attracting people who feel how he does and where Apple 
may notice them should enough people sign up. But I guess since he is 
leaving the iOS platform after his 5S lifetime is over, this will not happen 
so we're back at running in circles. I am at any rate done with comments 
regarding this at least until Pablo is back with more of the same when iOS 9 
comes out *smile*.



Regards,
Sieghard

I'm not Siegherd, but I do use My Way Lite. From what I can recall, My Way 
Classic one is able to share information to others. Otherwise, there's really 
no difference. Hence, I decided that I didn't need that feature. My Way 
Classic at the time was $14.99 to purchase. The ability to set bread crumbs

situations that the qraditional GPS apps will not give me the independence 
necessary. HTH.

 Hello all

 I am finally getting ready to enter the new world of advanced technology, as
 best it suits us as visually impaired individuals.

 According to my sister who has an old I Phone 4s, the I
 Phone is the only phone to consider in terms of voice over and
 accessibility. She loves hers and has had no trouble with the apps she uses.
 However, reading posts in the last day since I’ve joined is a bit alarming.

 I don’t know if one of the issues with an update that
 renders Safari troublesome is something quirky that occurred with a recent
 update or has to do with Safari and voice over as it’s existed for awhile
 now.

 What I will need in a smart phone are features that allow me to do
 everything possible with just a tap or swipe. I do not want to type numbers
 or letters. In addition to being totally blind, my fingers are often numb to
 the point that I cannot identify clothing, numbers on a phone pad, etc. I
 can move my fingers I just can’t identify things easily when they are numb.
 If I have to type on the surface of the phone and search out letters, I will
 likely be doing myself no more good than if I were typing.



 I need to keep an appointment calendar. I need to keep records and set memos
 and reminders.

 I need to be able to do E Mail by listening to incoming
 posts and by dictating outgoing posts. I’m not interested in texting.
 Currently I use Outlook on a desktop PC.

 I need to do Internet searches, read PDf files, shop, log
 onto Face Book, download Bookshare, NLS, Blind Mice movies, Newsline
 magazines and Newspapers. I might want to check out offerings on Hulu.

 I’d like to be able to easily access audio only

 archives of various podcasts of political radio personalities.

 Skype works well I hear and some camera features work extremely well on the
 I Phone with voice over.



 I was working on a novel this summer and had to stop because
 typing was aggravating the carpal tunnel. I understand that a dictation
 program akin to or by the same people who designed Dragon is part of the I
 Phone. Does it work for more lengthy word processing?

 Beyond that depending on whether or not I buy something
 through a company like Verizon as opposed to buying minutes I would want to
 use GPS.

 I don’t have any help here from anyone that is using
 features specifically useful for a blind individual. My tolerance for
 fumbling, lags in information coming up, buggy software is very very low.
 I’m certainly capable of learning if given proper instruction and by that I
 mean in person instruction by a savvy user. I doubt I’d have the patience to
 teach myself using a reading a manual or help files type approach. Just
 being honest here! I don’t have a lot of hope that anyone from the Verizon
 store will know what I need to know in terms of the voice over features.

 I hope to find someone in my area who is using their phone
 well and can demo for me.

 I hope many of you here will tell me to go for it.

Oops forgot about Airdrop!
You might be able to use that to do what you need!
Open control center:
Touch the status menu then 3 finger swipe up from bottom of screen!
Find the airdrop button and single finger double tap .
Then select the option you wish to use [either just contacts or everyone!
And of course the other people must do the same on theirs!
Then you should be able to go to the file in question and see if you have an

Raul, I don't want to be arguing with you , really it is not helpful for the
list. But I have to clarify that my porpoise is , advice and help everybody,
even me.
I don't know if you remember, since I started writing emails to the list,
regarding IOs problems, that I have been saying, that if we are customers of
apple, we should push apple to do a better job. It is my porpoise. If we
stay quiet, apple will not improve the quality of IOs. Do you Remember IOs
6?, it had some bugs, remember Ios 7? It had more bugs than IOs 6, and look
IOs 8, the worse IOs that the customers has seen. Looks like every year the
quality is lower, and lower, and lower.
Why is it happening?
Easy, because apple is not feeling that they need to improve the IOs
quality.
A few days I read on the list, someone saying that apple is doing a good
job, because in a few weeks, they have release 2 updates of IOs 8. I don't
see this issue on the same way. If they have to fix things, it is because
there were things to be fix. Again Raul, if we always are happy with
whatever apple is doing, always they will decrease the quality.
My advice to everybody, is write to apple, call them, make a lot of noise,
then they will take care about what are the problems of their customers, but
been good boys, quiet, they will not feel the need to improve anything.
I hope that you see now what is my porpoise writing not positive messages.
Pablo tired of IOs bugs.

if it's not advice that is useful or helps someone, then it serves no real
purpose on the list.   There have been timely warnings about bugs to save a

He encourages us to ask ourselves - does this add to the knowledge presented

Hi Raul.
In the rules of the list, I don't see anywhere anything saying that the
messages posted to the list, should be something that is positive for apple.
Are you owner of apple?
No, right?
Ok, so if I am in disagreement with the way how apple is handling the
accessibility, something that affect me, you, and everybody in this email
list. What is your problem?
That my emails are not saying that IOs 8.x is great?
No, it is not great, and you know that.
That the way how apple is pushing everybody to upgrade their devices, not
allowing to reinstall the IOs that the people has already installed is not
fair, is not good?
Well, Raul, maybe it is something that is not positive, but it is true.
That IOs 8.1.1, after I asked here if they fixed the bugs that IOs 8 had,
and after read emails saying that there are some bugs, and other people
saying that IOs 8.1.1 is great, for example Sieghard. Person that looks like

2014-11-30 Thread Pablo Morales
Sieghard
I can say the same thing about you. You always are defending apple here, you 
always are trying to minimize the problems or apple bugs, and looks like you 
are soling iPhones. Yu always has good ways to fix a problem, and sometimes you 
have good news about something interesting. Because of that , you looks like 
you are making some money with apple.
Even though, I could be wrong.
But, I can say that  is time to stop making advertisement  of apple here.
You don't want me talking bad about apple?
Ok, easy, accept some times, that the people with bugs has the right to be mad, 
and go back to your corner, but don't start defending apple like someone who is 
defending their family.
You almost always, when someone is frustrated with the last bugs of apple, you 
jump to the front, and starting justifying  apple, or trying to make the 
problem to looks, like without importance. It has been happening in the last 3 
years. Also Sieghard, you know that I don't have one point, I have several 
points, and every year I have several points. Or you mean because of I made 
complain about IOs 6, I have no right to say anything about IOs 8?
Why?
Are you saying that the bugs that IOs 6 had,  were the same that IOs 8 has?
If it is what you mean, man, then apple is worse than I thought.
So, you don't want to read me making complain about IOs 8?
You have 2 choices. One you can give me the money that I paid for my iPhone, or 
you can just recognize that apple is wrong, and stop justifying  apple 
behavior. Apple is been unfair since Steve Jobs died.
This email list is to try about apple accessibility, specifically on iPhones. 
This list is not to defend or attack any position. My concerns are related with 
the accessibility. Your position is about what?
Thanks
Yours truly,
Pablo

Christopher and others,

I agree that Pablo has a point. However, he has made his point dozens of 
time over the last few years and I think many list members are just getting 
tired of hearing his rather radical point of view true as it may be. The 
point is that repeating it on Viphone has about as much effect on Apple as 
beating a dead horse would have on riding it from point A to point B. I 
don't think anybody enjoys the bugs, but maybe it's time for Pablo to start 
a website or Google Plus community or something along these lines with the 
express purpose of attracting people who feel how he does and where Apple 
may notice them should enough people sign up. But I guess since he is 
leaving the iOS platform after his 5S lifetime is over, this will not happen 
so we're back at running in circles. I am at any rate done with comments 
regarding this at least until Pablo is back with more of the same when iOS 9 
comes out *smile*.

All this is true, but many iPhone users and many members of this list
will point out that the iPhone gives you the best accessibility on a
smart phone. I don't think Pablo or anyone else should have to choose
between the best accessibility experience on a smart phone and putting
up with these bugs in subsequent releases of major versions of IOS. I
don't always agree with Pablo, but I think he has every right to
complain and be frustrated with IOS 7 and now IOS 8. I'm sure Pablo pays
the same for his iPhone as everyone else does. This isn't a cheap
device, and I don't think it's too much to expect that it should work as
documented. I'm not saying it should be perfect or bug free, but I'm
still dealing with a few pretty frustrating bugs over two months after
IOS 8 was released.

Yes, I keep trying it, 200yards and past two other junctions and it still 
thought I was at the previous one.  It mentioned relative house numbers a few 
times, and still missed I'd taken a turn, good job I was on familiar territory! 
 This wasn't even that built up an area.  It missed announcing another 
junction, which I took anyway; then declaired a house number that doesn't exist 
as a close tends to be too short for 3 digit numbers.
I never fail to be amazed at the difference between those that rate it and rave 
about it, and my direct experience which usually leads me to abandon it again 
as next to useless.

It's your choice, there's still no real substitute for a real sense of

Hello Anthony,

This is not the case for me. I prefer the female high quality voice but Alex at

way I described. The female hq voice I s my default, I can turn the rotor and 
flick down to select German which I have also in my rotor and I have downloaded 
the german high quality voice and if I flick down again (or I can flick up

Re: 4s and IOS 8

2014-11-30 Thread Christopher Chaltain
You should be able to check if you have enough free space by going into 
Settings - General - Software Updates. If you don't have enough space, 
you'll see this on the screen. Note that swiping doesn't work in this 
screen. You'll need to slide your finger around on the screen to find 
the information.


Note that if you use iTunes to perform the install, you'll need a lot 
less free space. I did it this way since I wanted to grab an encrypted 
backup first, and I didn't have enough space on my iPhone 4S.


You can also free up storage to make enough space, either by removing 
media from the phone or removing apps. Everything is easy enough to put 
back after the install. Note that I've read that IOS 8 adoption is 
slower than releases in the past and it seems to be because IOS 8 
requires more free space than previous versions. People don't have the 
free space on their phones and aren't taking the time to free up more space.

There are a lot of apps like this in the app store. Whether they are accessible 
and how well they work I can't say, maybe check www.applevis.com to see if any 
of them are reviewed there. Anyhow, here is one of 
them I found when I did a quick Google search for what you are looking for. If 
you check the What other apps do people buy section you'll find links to 
other bluetooth sharing apps you can check out by clicking on the links. This 
app is free, but if you want to get rid of ads you have to do a 99 Cent in-app 
purchase.

Anthony,

 

What exactly is it you want to do where Tom’s Podcast with Jaws 16 differs from 
what you are trying to do with Jaws 15. Part of this could be that he set up 
his iTunes differently since I don’t think there should be a difference between 
Jaws 15 and Jaws 16 in that respect, but if you can give one or two specific 
examples it would help.

Raul, I don't want to be arguing with you , really it is not helpful for the
list. But I have to clarify that my porpoise is , advice and help everybody,
even me.
I don't know if you remember, since I started writing emails to the list,
regarding IOs problems, that I have been saying, that if we are customers of
apple, we should push apple to do a better job. It is my porpoise. If we
stay quiet, apple will not improve the quality of IOs. Do you Remember IOs
6?, it had some bugs, remember Ios 7? It had more bugs than IOs 6, and look
IOs 8, the worse IOs that the customers has seen. Looks like every year the
quality is lower, and lower, and lower.
Why is it happening?
Easy, because apple is not feeling that they need to improve the IOs
quality.
A few days I read on the list, someone saying that apple is doing a good
job, because in a few weeks, they have release 2 updates of IOs 8. I don't
see this issue on the same way. If they have to fix things, it is because
there were things to be fix. Again Raul, if we always are happy with
whatever apple is doing, always they will decrease the quality.
My advice to everybody, is write to apple, call them, make a lot of noise,
then they will take care about what are the problems of their customers, but
been good boys, quiet, they will not feel the need to improve anything.
I hope that you see now what is my porpoise writing not positive messages.

Adding to this, if the offending person continues to keep sending the offending

turns around and bashes us. Look at the message he posted to Sieghard about 
advertising Apple. And to the person that suggested to use the delete

RE: gaps app to help find stuff around an apartment complex?

2014-11-30 Thread M Tobia
Yes, WY Fi is important, but turning on Blue Tooth also helps improve GPS 
accuracy.  A little while back, I was speaking with Apple Accessibility  about 
some issues with Apple Maps and they told me that I should also have blue tooth 
turned on for best GPS results.

I have included some text from an apple web site explaining why blue tooth 
helps improve accuracy, you can read the whole article by going to:

http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201357

About location precision or accuracy


Depending on your device and available services, Location Services uses a 
combination of cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS to determine your location. 
If you're not within a clear line of sight to GPS satellites, your device can 
determine your location using crowd-sourced Wi-Fi5 and cell tower locations or 
iBeacons.

Apps that can show your location on the screen, including Maps, indicate your 
current (approximate) location using a blue marker. If your location can’t be 
determined precisely, a blue circle also appears around the marker. The size of 
the circle shows how precisely your location can be determined—the smaller the 
circle, the greater the precision.

A relatively small location circle

Note: When Location Services is active, a purple or gray arrow icon appears in 
the status bar.

Maps, directions, and location-based apps depend on data services. These data 
services are subject to change and may not be available in all geographic 
areas, resulting in maps, directions, or location-based information that may be 
unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete. Compare the information provided on the 
device to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to resolve any 
discrepancies.

Do you mean wifi? I know GPS accuracy is improved when wifi is enabled and your 
phone can look for near by hot spots. I've never heard this about bluetooth 
though, and I'd be surprised if it were the case given how bluetooth works. 
BTW, I agree you'll get better results with wifi enabled, but you should still 
get good results without it.

I assume when this article talks about bluetooth it's referring to 
iBeacons. I thought ot that when I wrote my response, and sure, if 
you're in a place using iBeacons, bluetooth will help, but I doubt this 
is very common place, and it didn't sound like it would help in the

Hi Marie,

 

Go to http://AppleID.apple.com. Find the “Manage your Apple ID” button, just 
below it will say “Change preferences, edit privacy settings, and keep your 
details current.”

If you arrow down again you’ll find a link “Reset your password”.

Activate the link and on the next page enter your Apple Id email, then click 
“Next”.

I believe you now can choose how you want to reset your password, one choice 
would be to provide the answers to the security questions you selected and 
there might be an option to do it via a trusted device. I am not totally sure 
since I use the 2-step verification method and if you do this it will ask you 
for your recovery key which is provided when you set up 2-step verification and 
which you have to ensure you write down and keep it in a safe place.

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

was not, and I looked on Applevis and saw that the last  comments there 
indicated it is not; however, that was in January, and I thought some things 
were posted to this list that indicated people were playing it, so thought I 
would check. My mom plays it, and it would be nice to have a game I can play 
with her. Tried to talk her into Hanging with Friends, but have not been 
successful so far.

Thanks for any help.

I wish I could. I have the skype app on my iphone4. I accidentally started

 All,

 I think I may have figured out how to hang up a call using skype on
 the IPhone. Use your pointer and middle finger and tap twice anywhere
 on the screen when you want to hang up. When I do this, it hangs up
 the phone. Can someone else confirm this works for them too?

 On my phone, when I tap twice with my two fingers, I hear about 2
 seconds of a song play from my music and this disconnects the call and
 voice over speech returns. The song does quit playing after 2 seconds,
 but I am actually wondering if it is the song playing for a few
 seconds that is causing skype to hang up? I know the double tap with
 my fingers is a quick way to start and stop playing music on the
 IPhone so maybe this is working to our advantage?

 For those just reading this, when you make a call on skype on your
 IPhone speech is turned off so you cannot swipe to hear or find the
 hang up button so this finger double tap may be a workaround.

 btw I am running skype 5.6.1 (latest version) on an IPhone 3S.

I have some questions about a new iPhone that I'm getting.

2014-11-30 Thread Kevin Minor
Hi.

 

I called up ATT to check on their mobile plans.  I decided to switch to
them after being unable to use T-Mobile at my Brother's house, while ATT
worked great on his iPhone.  I was going to get an iPhone 6 plus with the
Next plan where you pay zero down and pay the iPhone off in installments.  I
can't get that at present, but I was able to get an 8 gig iPhone 5C for
$.99.  I have some questions regarding the new iPhone.

 

First, does this iPhone have VoiceOver on it?  I called up Apple, and was
told it did.  I'm just double checking to make sure I can use the phone.

 

Now for my other question.  I have an iPhone 4 with 32 gig of storage.  I'm
not sure how many apps I have, but I'm pretty sure it's more than 8 gig
worth.  How do I copy specific apps from either the iCloud or iTunes to the
new phone?  I'd prefer not to delete them from iTunes so I can have them
when I get the latest iPhone with the maximum amount of storeage.  In fact,
how do I back up the iPhone?  Can I delete apps off it and back up the
iPhone, then restore it with the fewer apps?

 

I know I'm way behind when it comes to iPhones.  Until now I haven't had the
need for something better than what I currently have.  I'm looking forward
to the new iPhone with Siri.

 

Oh yeah, I just thought of another one.  How do I get VoiceOver turned on
with the new iPhone?  I know I can plug in the iPhone into my PC and turn it
on with iTunes.  I'm just hoping there's a way to do it without plugging it
into the PC, because I'm worried about all my apps being copied to it and I
run out of storeage.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Don't work too hard.

Re: I have some questions about a new iPhone that I'm getting.

2014-11-30 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Yes, the iPhone 5C will have VoiceOver on it. If it hasn't been set up 
before, you should be able to activate VoiceOver with a triple push of 
the home button. You can also use Siri to start VoiceOver, assuming you 
have a network connection, such as over your cellular plan.


You should be able to backup your old iPhone and then restore that 
backup to your new phone, but I've never actually done this myself, so 
definitely wait for others to weigh in on this.

I know I’m way behind when it comes to iPhones.  Until now I haven’t had

Oh yeah, I just thought of another one.  How do I get VoiceOver turned

RE: I have some questions about a new iPhone that I'm getting.

2014-11-30 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Kevin,

 

I wonder if you could change your choice of phones. I heard on the Today in iOS 
Podcast that one of the large box stores in the States, I think maybe Target, 
was offering the iPhone 6 16 Gb for $99 for Black Friday/Cyber Monday. 
Quantities I think were limited so maybe they are all gone, but it would be 
worth checking.

 

I thought the 5C was free with contract and the 5S was $99. If you are paying 
$99 for an 8 Gb iPhone 5C I think you are getting ripped off.

 

Anyhow, as for you apps, I would suggest you back up your iPhone 4, but when 
you set up your new phone it would probably be best to set it up as a new phone 
and then just download whichever apps you want. If you purchased an app once 
you can always download the app again for free provided of course that you use 
the same Apple Id on your new iPhone. If, for example, you purchased Money 
Reader, then after you sign in on your new iPhone you would go to the app 
store, search for Money Reader and instead of the “Get” button you would simply 
see a “Download” button which means you purchased the app and now it’s 
available for you to be downloaded.

 

Do reconsider your choice of an 8 Gb phone. If your iPhone 4 still works it 
would probably be better to save up a bit longer and get an iPhone 6 16 Gb 
which is $199. You pay $100 more but you have the newest phone which will serve 
you well for the next 4 or so years whereas a 5C has neither touch Id, nor is 
it Apple Pay capable nor does it even have a 64 Bit processor. And especially 
until Monday I wouldn’t be surprised if you could get a deal on a 16 Gb iPhone 
6 even if that $99 deal is no longer available.

 

 

Regards and good luck,

Sieghard

RE: I have some questions about a new iPhone that I'm getting.

2014-11-30 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Sorry, I forgot about your Voiceover question. Christopher already answered it, 
but to add to what he said, basically at this point there are no iOS devices 
which are still current devices and which don’t have Voiceover. All models of 
the iPhone since the 3GS, all iPads (full-size and Mini) and all iPod Touches 
since the third Gen model which was released in 2009 have Voiceover.

Re: airplay with iOS 8.1.1

2014-11-30 Thread Richard Turner
Yes, Siri will not work after using Airplay.
The other thing I think I have discovered, is that VoiceDream will not play 
when the phone is locked after using Airplay.
I have not experimented with other things like music or BARD, but VoiceDream 
not working in the background is enough to report another set of bugs with 
8.1.1.

RE: skype - I figured out how to hang up a call!

2014-11-30 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi David,

 

Could you maybe write again and let us know if this message was some sort of 
mistake? The thread/message you are replying to is almost 3 years old, from 
January 20, 2012. In the current version of Skype you can hang up calls with a 
2-finger double tap just like you would hang up a phone call. But you can also 
touch the home button and then slide your finger straight up from there and the 
End Call button will be right there.

 

I know you say you have an iPhone 4 which is by now a pretty old device. I 
guess there might be differences between what you experience and what I 
experience on my 5S, but if Voiceover completely goes away on your iPhone when 
you use the Skype app, maybe try to completely delete Skype and then redownload 
it to see if that helps. I would also suggest you empty the app switcher before 
using Skype to free up as many resources as possible.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghardmessage you

All,

I think I may have figured out how to hang up a call using skype on
the IPhone. Use your pointer and middle finger and tap twice anywhere
on the screen when you want to hang up. When I do this, it hangs up
the phone. Can someone else confirm this works for them too?

On my phone, when I tap twice with my two fingers, I hear about 2
seconds of a song play from my music and this disconnects the call and
voice over speech returns. The song does quit playing after 2 seconds,
but I am actually wondering if it is the song playing for a few
seconds that is causing skype to hang up? I know the double tap with
my fingers is a quick way to start and stop playing music on the
IPhone so maybe this is working to our advantage?

For those just reading this, when you make a call on skype on your
IPhone speech is turned off so you cannot swipe to hear or find the
hang up button so this finger double tap may be a workaround.

btw I am running skype 5.6.1 (latest version) on an IPhone 3S.

RE: Changes to Goodreads App

2014-11-30 Thread Michelle Bernstein
I also dislike the changes the Goodreads team has made to the currently reading 
shelf and in fact, I now only use the site to rate books that I have already 
finished reading. The currently reading option seems designed for maximum 
visual impact which is no longer of value to me.  I also wrote to them about 
this change and I would urge anyone who uses the sort and has difficulties with 
any of its options to email them.  They do respond to emails and forward 
concerns, but I too dislike this recent change.  Michellr

bard and clock/timer question on IOS 8.1.1

2014-11-30 Thread Paul and Paula Jordan
Hi all.  Until I updated to IOS 8.1.1 I was able to set a timer in the
native clock app to when timer stops, stop playing and turn on a BARD book.
When the timer ran down the book would stop playing.  This no longer seems
to be true.  I think I have everything set up correctly, but the book
continues to run after the specified time.  Has anyone else had this
experience.  Is there a setting I need to fix?  I'm running IOS 8.1.1 on a
brand new IPhone 6.  Thanks in advance. 

God bless!

RE: airplay with iOS 8.1.1

2014-11-30 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Richard,

 

I just tested this with an MP3 audio book and Voicedream and that is one issue 
I don’t experience. Here is what I did:

 

I started playing the MP3 audio book in Voice Dream.

I then pressed the home key and exited Voice Dream, the book continued playing.

I then locked my phone and the book continued playing so everything seems good 
here.

 

I then stopped the book, opened the Audible app and started playing a book.

I double tapped the Airplay button in the Audible app and sent my Audible book 
to my Sonos system via the attached Airport Express.

The Audible book played and via Airplay and I next paused it and tried to ask 
SIRI a question.

As usual, I got the stop listening tone immediately after the start listening 
tone, so no go here and the bug with SIRI not working while or after using 
Airplay still exists. I say “still exists” because I am using iOS 8.2 Beta.

I now went back into Voice Dream and started my MP3 audio book again and it 
started playing via Airplay on my Sonos system since I still had Airplay 
selected.

I now exited the Voice Dream app and the book continued.

Next I locked the phone and my book still kept on playing via Airplay.

Next I unlocked my phone again, stopped the book and turned Airplay back off. 
At this point SIRI was still not working, but I could start my book playing in 
Voice Dream, exit the app and lock the phone all without my book pausing or 
stopping.

 

Now I guess I go and reboot my phone so that I get SIRI back.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Yes, Siri will not work after using Airplay.

The other thing I think I have discovered, is that VoiceDream will not play 
when the phone is locked after using Airplay.

I have not experimented with other things like music or BARD, but VoiceDream 
not working in the background is enough to report another set of bugs with 
8.1.1.

 Thanks Jonathan, that worked, but why?
 I hadn’t realized audio ducking had gotten turned off.  Is that “feature”

 That seems to me, on the face of it, one of the stupidest consequences to

Raul, I don't want to be arguing with you , really it is not helpful for the
list. But I have to clarify that my porpoise is , advice and help everybody,
even me.
I don't know if you remember, since I started writing emails to the list,
regarding IOs problems, that I have been saying, that if we are customers of
apple, we should push apple to do a better job. It is my porpoise. If we
stay quiet, apple will not improve the quality of IOs. Do you Remember IOs
6?, it had some bugs, remember Ios 7? It had more bugs than IOs 6, and look
IOs 8, the worse IOs that the customers has seen. Looks like every year the
quality is lower, and lower, and lower.
Why is it happening?
Easy, because apple is not feeling that they need to improve the IOs
quality.
A few days I read on the list, someone saying that apple is doing a good
job, because in a few weeks, they have release 2 updates of IOs 8. I don't
see this issue on the same way. If they have to fix things, it is because
there were things to be fix. Again Raul, if we always are happy with
whatever apple is doing, always they will decrease the quality.
My advice to everybody, is write to apple, call them, make a lot of noise,
then they will take care about what are the problems of their customers, but
been good boys, quiet, they will not feel the need to improve anything.
I hope that you see now what is my porpoise writing not positive messages.

Hello.

First question: Yes,t he 5C hs voice over on it so you can definitely use it no 
problem.

For your second question at leas concerning apps you have purchased int eh app 
store, once you set up your new phone, go the app store and tap “purchases” and 
you can just download them on the new phone.

 Hi.
  
 I called up ATT to check on their mobile plans.  I decided to switch to them 
 after being unable to use T-Mobile at my Brother’s house, while ATT worked 
 great on his iPhone.  I was going to get an iPhone 6 plus with the Next plan 
 where you pay zero down and pay the iPhone off in installments.  I can’t get 
 that at present, but I was able to get an 8 gig iPhone 5C for $.99.  I have 
 some questions regarding the new iPhone.
  
 First, does this iPhone have VoiceOver on it?  I called up Apple, and was 
 told it did.  I’m just double checking to make sure I can use the phone.
  
 Now for my other question.  I have an iPhone 4 with 32 gig of storage.  I’m 
 not sure how many apps I have, but I’m pretty sure it’s more than 8 gig 
 worth.  How do I copy specific apps from either the iCloud or iTunes to the 
 new phone?  I’d prefer not to delete them from iTunes so I can have them when 
 I get the latest iPhone with the maximum amount of storeage.  In fact, how do 
 I back up the iPhone?  Can I delete apps off it and back up the iPhone, then 
 restore it with the fewer apps?
  
 I know I’m way behind when it comes to iPhones.  Until now I haven’t had the 
 need for something better than what I currently have.  I’m looking forward to 
 the new iPhone with Siri.
  
 Oh yeah, I just thought of another one.  How do I get VoiceOver turned on 
 with the new iPhone?  I know I can plug in the iPhone into my PC and turn it 
 on with iTunes.  I’m just hoping there’s a way to do it without plugging it 
 into the PC, because I’m worried about all my apps being copied to it and I 
 run out of storeage.
  
 Thanks in advance for any help.
  
 Don’t work too hard.

Re: bard and clock/timer question on IOS 8.1.1

2014-11-30 Thread Richard Turner
All you need is the iOS built-in clock, which has a timer feature.
The easiest way to get to it is to open the control center, then double tap on 
the clock app which is in the bottom row, the timer is often the default 
selection, but if it isn't it is in the lower right.
Double tap on it so it is selected.
Then, explore the screen, and you will find an hours setting and a minutes 
setting, then a button that says something like when timer ends, if you double 
tap on that, it will open a screen of sounds but the last item on that screen 
says stop playing double tap on that and then find the set button in the 
upper righthand corner and double tap that.
Then go back to either the hours or minutes and touch the one you want to 
change and do a single finger flick up or down to get to the amount of time you 
want.
Then, double tap on the start button.
Now, go back to BARD and start playing your book and when the timer ends, the 
book should just stop playing.
You will find the next time you go to the clock timer, it will remember your 
last setting.
HTH,
Richard

Re: K-NFB Reader and the 4S

I have an iPhone 4S, so I've been paying attention to this question, but 
I don't have KNFB Reader myself yet. From what I've read on list, it 
seems to do well, just a bit slower. Hopefully someone else will weigh 
in or maybe you can check the archives.

 What exactly is it you want to do where Tom’s Podcast with Jaws 16 differs

Re: I have some questions about a new iPhone that I'm getting.

 Hi Kevin,
  
 I wonder if you could change your choice of phones. I heard on the Today in 
 iOS Podcast that one of the large box stores in the States, I think maybe 
 Target, was offering the iPhone 6 16 Gb for $99 for Black Friday/Cyber 
 Monday. Quantities I think were limited so maybe they are all gone, but it 
 would be worth checking.
  
 I thought the 5C was free with contract and the 5S was $99. If you are paying 
 $99 for an 8 Gb iPhone 5C I think you are getting ripped off.
  
 Anyhow, as for you apps, I would suggest you back up your iPhone 4, but when 
 you set up your new phone it would probably be best to set it up as a new 
 phone and then just download whichever apps you want. If you purchased an app 
 once you can always download the app again for free provided of course that 
 you use the same Apple Id on your new iPhone. If, for example, you purchased 
 Money Reader, then after you sign in on your new iPhone you would go to the 
 app store, search for Money Reader and instead of the “Get” button you would 
 simply see a “Download” button which means you purchased the app and now it’s 
 available for you to be downloaded.
  
 Do reconsider your choice of an 8 Gb phone. If your iPhone 4 still works it 
 would probably be better to save up a bit longer and get an iPhone 6 16 Gb 
 which is $199. You pay $100 more but you have the newest phone which will 
 serve you well for the next 4 or so years whereas a 5C has neither touch Id, 
 nor is it Apple Pay capable nor does it even have a 64 Bit processor. And 
 especially until Monday I wouldn’t be surprised if you could get a deal on a 
 16 Gb iPhone 6 even if that $99 deal is no longer available.
  
  
 Regards and good luck,
 Sieghard

 Subject: I have some questions about a new iPhone that I'm getting.
  
 Hi.
  
 I called up ATT to check on their mobile plans.  I decided to switch to them 
 after being unable to use T-Mobile at my Brother’s house, while ATT worked 
 great on his iPhone.  I was going to get an iPhone 6 plus with the Next plan 
 where you pay zero down and pay the iPhone off in installments.  I can’t get 
 that at present, but I was able to get an 8 gig iPhone 5C for $.99.  I have 
 some questions regarding the new iPhone.
  
 First, does this iPhone have VoiceOver on it?  I called up Apple, and was 
 told it did.  I’m just double checking to make sure I can use the phone.
  
 Now for my other question.  I have an iPhone 4 with 32 gig of storage.  I’m 
 not sure how many apps I have, but I’m pretty sure it’s more than 8 gig 
 worth.  How do I copy specific apps from either the iCloud or iTunes to the 
 new phone?  I’d prefer not to delete them from iTunes so I can have them when 
 I get the latest iPhone with the maximum amount of storeage.  In fact, how do 
 I back up the iPhone?  Can I delete apps off it and back up the iPhone, then 
 restore it with the fewer apps?
  
 I know I’m way behind when it comes to iPhones.  Until now I haven’t had the 
 need for something better than what I currently have.  I’m looking forward to 
 the new iPhone with Siri.
  
 Oh yeah, I just thought of another one.  How do I get VoiceOver turned on 
 with the new iPhone?  I know I can plug in the iPhone into my PC and turn it 
 on with iTunes.  I’m just hoping there’s a way to do it without plugging it 
 into the PC, because I’m worried about all my apps being copied to it and I 
 run out of storeage.
  
 Thanks in advance for any help.
  
 Don’t work too hard.

If the buttons aren't labeled, you might start by letting them know and see if 
they could make the app more accessible to VoiceOver users.

Disappearing ring tones...

2014-11-30 Thread SoonerAnnie
Hi all, 

Something strange has been happening to my sister and me the last couple of 
days and I am at a loss as to how to proceed. A couple or so weeks ago I 
purchased a ring tone from the iTunes store and downloaded it with absolutely 
no problems as usual. Yesterday my sister and I both wanted some Christmas ring 
tones, so we proceeded to purchase and download them. We set them to be our 
default ringtones (we each only downloaded one) and everything was okay for a 
couple hours or so. Then suddenly hers...and then mine...began using the 
default ring tone, and the tones we bought were nowhere in sight! I have family 
sharing, so was the one who purchased hers, but that shouldn't have caused a 
problem, I wouldn't think. All the other ring tones I have purchased are with 
my other ring tones, but not the one I purchased yesterday evening. So, I went 
back to the iTunes store and purchased them again, even though the message came 
up that I had already purchased it and would I like to buy it again. I said yes 
because I was unable to find them anywhere...and the same thing happened...at 
least to me. As of tonight, my sister's second attempt at downloading hers is 
still holding, though it seems pretty precarious. When she checks in settings, 
sounds, ring tones, it shows that her default ring tone is the default IOS ring 
tone. But when she clicks on that, VoiceOver says that the Christmas ring tone 
is selected...and it still does play when her phone rings. But we are afraid 
that if we change her ring tone, it will disappear once more. When I go into my 
purchases in the iTunes store, it shows everything except tones! Why are they 
so elusive...and how can I keep tones from running away from me? Inquiring 
minds want to know! If anyone has any experiences, thoughts, suggestions, etc., 
etc., etc., I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks for taking the time to read. 

Regards, 

Ann

Hi,
I heard on a podcast that Apple is aware of the problem and is working 
on it.

Is there a way to change the from address when it says iCloud.com to a different email address when sending a message

2014-11-30 Thread Wren Langley
Hi all, and thank you for the help. I have two accounts in my email. One is an 
iCloud account and when is my SBC global.net account. Sometimes when I try to 
send a message the front part says iCloud.com. I want to know if there's a way 
to change it so that my SBC global.net address could be used instead. Thank you 
all very much and God bless, Wren Langley

 the book continues to run after the specified time.  Has anyone else had

RE: Disappearing ring tones...

2014-11-30 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Ann,

I have never purchased a ring tone from iTunes.  However, I know that, were I 
you, I would copy the actual ring tone files, themselves, to any other location 
than the one in which iTunes places them.  Doing this would allow you to access 
them without fear of having them removed.

As I write this I realize that you may not know how to determine file locations 
or how to change or modify how iTunes points to them.  So, I will list the 
basic steps and then, if you're interested, you can follow up.  

Now, although I own a Mac and love it dearly, I sync all of my iOS devices via 
iTunes on my Windows computer.  Regardless of which ever version of iTunes you 
use, the basic steps should be the same.

Okay, here we go:

1.
Create a folder on your computer in which you will place copies of your 
purchased ring tones.  You may name it whatever you like so long as it makes 
sense to you.  For example, I keep copies of all my ring tones, purchased or 
created in a folder called Mark's RingTones.

2.
After you have downloaded/purchased the ring tone from Apple, find its entry in 
iTunes.  You already know how to do this.

3.
Perform what is essentially a right-mouse click on the item in iTunes and, from 
the resulting menu, select to show the file in Windows Explorer (PC) or Finder 
(Mac).

4.
Now, copy that file to the folder you created in step 1, listed above.

Ann, at this point you can simply close iTunes and if all goes well, you won't 
need to use the copied files.  

However, if, for whatever reason, the files go missing again, you can add the 
files back to iTunes from the folder that you created in step 1, listed above.  

Now personally, I wouldn't wait for something to go wrong but, instead, I would 
perform the following steps, if for no other reason than to remove the iTunes 
Store from the proverbial equation.

1.
From within the Ring Tones area of iTunes, delete the purchased ring tone 
entries.  Make sure you have a copy of the files stored somewhere on your 
computer.

2.
From the File menu, select add file.

3.
From the resulting Dialog box, locate the files in the folder that you created 
in step 1, listed above, and add them back into iTunes.  

4.
Sync your iOS device.

Good Luck, Ann, and Happy Ringing.

Mark
