Caution: Apple Tech Says Audible App Has Slightly Damaged my iOS Installation
Hello, everyone. I recently brought my 2.5-year-old iPhone 5 into my local Apple store for a battery check. It passed well, but the technician who did the work-up told me that two apps, one of which was the Audible app, had slightly damaged the iOS installation. He could repair the OS, he said, but repair, although free, would take along time. He didn't think the damage was significant and urged that I not have it undertaken, suggesting rather that I un-install the offending apps and re-install them to see if I noticed a difference in battery life. I was surprised to learn that an app could damage an iOS installation. Since the advice came from an Apple technician, I thought it important to post here. Has anyone on the list ever received such a warning or heard of this possibility? I have un-installed the 2.5x version of Audible I have been using since I think it is most likely the guilty culprit.

Re: Disappearing audiobooks in the audible app
Hello, Mary. I'm sorry to tell you I have given up using any version of Audible later than Version 2.4.2. The latest roll-outs have been too unsable. The current ersion carries a scandalously low average rating of 2 stars. Audible's apology for customer troubles, found in the description of the app, is pathetic. I will shortly be posting a message about the possibly that unstable apps such as Audible might even damage a user's installation of the OS.

New Trivia Game
Hey guys. I don't know how many of you know this, but I found a new trivia game. It's called True Or False Quiz Battle. Basically what you do is you go through 5 rounds of multiple choice questions and then the final round is as the name says, you answer a series of true or false questions to determine the winner. The only annoyance is that if you keep the app open, it doesn't auto refresh so the only way I could take my turn is if I close the app and reopen it. I'd report it to them by writing a review but I can't because I read somewhere that Apple restricts beta testers from writing reviews. If you download the game, could you all report it? Oh and if I'm wrong about Apple restricting users from writing reviews, write me off list and correct me just in case we talk about something that breaks NDA.

Re: Caution: Apple Tech Says Audible App Has Slightly Damaged my iOS Installation
I wonder what is likely causing more apps to crash with VO lately? I have an iPhone 6 from Sprint. It could be a coincidence that several apps are written such that VO crashes them, but I hope there isn't some kind of hardware reason at play. I do have Apple Care on it, so they could ship me a different one while mine goes in, since I am a far enough Uber ride round trip to almost buy a 16 gig, as far as my distance to the nearest Apple Store. As far as taking the ship it in option, how does that likely affect Sprint's leasing program? I know these programs typically want the same phone back that I leased from them, but Apple doesn't always return the same one repaired if they found a defect. - Original Message - From: Craig Werner To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, August 18, 2015 6:13 AM Subject: Re: Caution: Apple Tech Says Audible App Has Slightly Damaged my iOS Installation Hello, Paul.

Re: Caution: Apple Tech Says Audible App Has Slightly Damaged my iOS Installation
Hello everyone. All technicians are not created equal. I once had a seri issue after resetting my iPhone to its default settings. A technician told me to restore my iPhone. I later discovered that I had to enable seri. It's probably unlikely that an app will damage an installation. You could get a second opinion, live with the issue or reinstall IOS.

Re: Can anyone get the New voice OCR app to work?
Hello, The link I gave you is to the app in the UK appstore. The Appstore is part of the iTunes Store. Anyway, I searched for “Voice OCR” and it was the second result. I actually found it in the French Appstore as I live in France, but simply changed the “fr” to “gb” since you’re in England.

Re: Caution: Apple Tech Says Audible App Has Slightly Damaged my iOS Installation
Yes, John, I am now agreeing with you and Paul. When a customer has a battery evaluation, the tech is looking at the number of relatively full charges over a specific period of time and can see which apps are using the most power. I fail to see how this data can be used to form a schematic, so to speak, of the overall health of the OS.

Re: New Trivia Game
I contacted them through the website. If you want to email them and not just read all the FAQs, you will have to go through a captia, but it is the first audio captia I've run into that is very clear and easy to hear. They replied in about 6 hours, pretty good. I mentioned the issue Shawn brought up, and they said they would look into it, but these things go better if more people give them good feedback.

However, you can still go to the developer's website and contact them directly. This is probably a better way to bring up accessibility issues than through reviews anyway, since it's private communication with the dev. To get the contact information, check out the Information section at the bottom of an app's page. It should include the developer's website.

It's called True Or False Quiz Battle. Basically what you do is you go through 5 rounds of multiple choice questions and then the final round is as the name says, you answer a series of true or false questions to determine the winner. The only annoyance is that if you keep the app open, it doesn't auto refresh so the only way I could take my turn is if I close the app and reopen it. I'd report it to them by writing a review but I can't because I read somewhere that Apple restricts beta testers from writing reviews. If you download the game, could you all report it?

Apple music question with iPhone and new Nano.
OK, so since I've been getting into the Apple Music thing in a big way in the last month, and since they also announced the new Nano, I now have some questions. My iPhone is full with Bard books and Audible content, and so I have to stream my Apple music library. I never used iTunes for music before, so I'm starting fresh with content. My big question is if I get one of the new iPod Nanos, will it have the ability to run the latest itteration of the music app so I can get the Apple music features? Also, if I go through and make albums available for offline listening, will the Apple Music service then attempt to download this music to my iPhone, on which there is really no room? I know that the Nano is the really small device, about one inch wide, and that it has only specific apps on it, music being the main one. Therefore, Bard books and Audible would stay on my iPhone. I believe I'm limited with what the Nano comes with, and can't alter it in any way. Finally, while I can look this up while doing my research, what are the new models again, and the prices? Perhaps there's a page with this info that I cruised by when the announcement was made. Thanks, Matthew -- The following information is important for all members of the VIPhone list.

Re: Question about braille displays and compatibility with iPhone six
I did a test with iOS using the braille edge yesterday and here are the some of the pros and cons. The edge allows you to either use it iOS or you can use the take notes with the edge it self. How ever when using with iOS when typing notes with the edge iOS doesn't announce each character when typing. It also has bluetooth and usb capability.

Re: Apple Tv
You may or may not be able to reduce your cable subscription to cable. The problem is that in order to receive several of the channels offered on the Apple TV one must be able to get those channels presently on their cable. Suggest you think about getting an app called Sling TV for your phone, see information below. below... Imagine everything you liked about cable. You probably enjoyed surfing the channels, watching the shows people were talking about when they aired instead of months after. And, if you were lucky enough to own boxes of a certain caliber, pausing and rewinding said TV shows in real time. Now, imagine everything you hated: the costly bill at the end of the month, the bulky, expensive equipment that marred the side of your house and entertainment center. Not to mention the service contract that never seemed to end. But what if you could get everything you loved about TV without any of those gripes? That, in a nutshell, is Sling TV. It's live TV streaming whenever and wherever. No contracts, no equipment and no costly statement. Sling TV? Is it the same thing as a Slingbox?While there are some concepts borrowed from Slingbox, Sling TV is in a different league when it comes to cutting the cord. Sling TV is a US-only service offered from DISH that allows you to watch the channels you'd typically find on basic cable for $20 a month without a contract, subscription to DISH or any pesky cable equipment on your roof or in your living room. What devices can I use to watch it?Create an account on DISH's website and use that info to login to the app on iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV and Amazon Fire TV Stick, Google's Nexus Player, Xbox One and Roku TV. The service will also work on select LG and Samsung smart TVs, and on Macs and PCs via a website portal. The service is expected to come to Google Chromecastlater this year. The system is more eloquent than apps like TWC TV or Xfinity, and while the latter is almost universally available, trying to remember whose name and email you use to login can ruin a session before it even starts. What channels are included?So far, channels on the basic, $20-per-month plan include ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, TBS, HGTV, DIY Network, Food Network, Travel Channel, CNN, Cartoon Network, ABC Family, Disney Channel, AMC, IFC and, most recently, AE, History, H2, Lifetime, Bloomberg and most recently, Polaris+. The biggest change to this roster is HBO. Starting April 12 for the premiere of the new season of Game of Thrones, Sling TV will offer live HBO for $15 a month to current Best of Live TV subscribers. Also new is the addition of DishWorld multi-lingual content to Sling TV. In addition to the base subscription, seven add-on packages are available for $5 apiece each month: a.. Kids Extra, with Disney Jr, Disney XD, Boomerang, Duck TV, and Baby TV. b.. Sports Extra, which includes the SEC Network, ESPNEWS, ESPNU, Universal Sports, Univision Deportes, beIN Sports, ESPN Buzzer Beater, ESPN Bases Loaded and ESPN Goal Line. c.. Lifestyle extra, with Cooking Channel, DIY, truTV, WE tv, FYI, and LMN. d.. Hollywood Extra, which includes live and video-on-demand content from EPIX, EPIX2, EPIX3, EPIX Drive-In, Sundance TV and Turner Classic Movies (TCM) e.. World News Extra, with HLN, News 18 India, Euronews, NDTV 24x7, France24 and RT. f.. Deportes Extra includes Azteca, beIN Español, beIN HD (English), Univison, Univision Deportes and UniMás. g.. Películas Novelas Extra includes Azteca Corazon, Cinelatino, De Película, De Película Clasico, Pasiones, Univision tlnovelas, Univision and UniMás. FunctionalityNow, remember when you asked about Slingbox? Well, it's true, Sling TV and Slingbox share a few similarities beyond the first syllable. Sling TV allows you to pause, rewind and fast-forward live TV on some channels (note the word some there), and the ability to watch shows a few days after they've aired. Also similar to Slingbox, Sling TV lets you watch its service on most mobile devices anywhere in the world. That is, as long as you can establish and maintain a bitrate of about 1.5 Mbps for high-quality streams, 0.8Mbps for medium resolution, and 0.5 Mbps for low-quality. Sling TV on Roku TechRadar was given two platforms to test Sling TV. One was Roku (specifically on a Roku 3) and the other was iOS, which we'll get to in a minute. By and large, the experience on Roku was everything I've come to love about a cable box: simple functionality, clean layout and crisp picture. Installing the app was as easy as going to Roku channel store, finding the Sling TV app and pushing it to my Roku 3. Coming from the home screen, Sling TV's interface loads up In a matter of seconds. The time it takes to get from home screen to live TV is astonishing - it's leagues faster than the time it takes my DirecTV cable box to boot up. Once loaded, the stream was crisp and clear.

It is likely that one of the big features will be an app store for the Apple TV which allows you to install apps which third party developers will make. These could be anything from games to apps from organisations like CNN or BBC to apps from music services like Spotify, Deezer and so on. This will hugely enhance the functionality and usefulness of the Apple TV since it of course is logical that you may want to play content from a music service or news organization via your TV or sound system the Apple TV is attached to. Of course the app store may be supported by the third gen Apple TV, but nobody can say for sure. Another expected enhancement to the Apple TV is SIRI integration and control. My guess is that you will be able to talk to the Apple TV via the remote and tell it to open a certain app or play something etc. I highly doubt that the third gen Apple TV which is already 3-year old hardware will be able to support this. Next is the upcoming offering of a subscription based TV service. Once again, maybe this will be supported or maybe not. One should keep in mind that while the second gen Apple TV still can play Netflix and a bunch of the existing channels, it does not even have Youtube support any more. This quietly disappeared a few months ago. Lastly there is the expected integration and support of many connected home automation devices like thermostats, lights, locks and so on. You may not have these now, but such devices will be the norm rather than the exception in the coming years. I think in general that it is simply a bad idea to rush out and buy an Apple TV now even though it may only be $50 especially because we already know from rumours that a new Apple TV maybe announced as soon as September 9. That is only 3 weeks away and within another week or so we probably know for sure if Apple is sending out invites for a September 9 event or if it will be held a week later. Why not wait these few weeks and see what happens, if no Apple TV is forthcoming you can still spend your $50 in 3 weeks, but what you can currently do with the Apple TV will not replace your existing cable subscription. I would give the same advice to somebody who wants to buy a new iPhone although that is a bit different because iPhones are updated annually whereas the last Apple TV update was 3 years ago. It is my guess that while a new Apple TV will probably cost more than $50, it will not be hundreds of Dollars simply because it is in Apple's interest to keep the price low so people get it and then subscribe to channels, consume paid iTunes content or buy apps from the new Apple TV app store which of course will generate a new source of income for Apple.

No matter what I do, I can not get the download to continue, and I have no idea if there is a way one could remove the voice and somehow restart the download again. It seems as if the phone is now stuck in this mode. I really need to get a new phone, as this one is old, but finance is a problem right now. To make it even more difficult, my lock/sleep button does not function properly, it seems the little spring has gone, so I can not really switch the phone off and on, to try and reset it in that way, and the only way to reset it now seems to be via itunes and a restore option.

Re: Apple Tv
The problem with sling is that if I am watching a channel offered through this service on one television another individual in my home could not watch a different channel at the same time. According to them this is something that they are working on to improve or change.

Now, imagine everything you hated: the costly bill at the end of the month, the bulky, expensive equipment that marred the side of your house and entertainment center.

It's live TV streaming whenever and wherever. No contracts, no equipment and no costly statement. Sling TV? Is it the same thing as a Slingbox?While there are some concepts borrowed from Slingbox, Sling TV is in a different league when it comes to cutting the cord. Sling TV is a US-only service offered from DISH that allows you to watch the channels you'd typically find on basic cable for $20 a month without a contract, subscription to DISH or any pesky cable equipment on your roof or in your living room. What devices can I use to watch it?Create an account on DISH's website and use that info to login to the app on iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV and Amazon Fire TV Stick, Google's Nexus Player, Xbox One and Roku TV. The service will also work on select LG and Samsung smart TVs, and on Macs and PCs via a website portal. The service is expected to come to Google Chromecastlater this year. The system is more eloquent than apps like TWC TV or Xfinity, and while the latter is almost universally available, trying to remember whose name and email you use to login can ruin a session before it even starts. What channels are included?So far, channels on the basic, $20-per-month plan include ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, TBS, HGTV, DIY Network, Food Network, Travel Channel, CNN, Cartoon Network, ABC Family, Disney Channel, AMC, IFC and, most recently, AE, History, H2, Lifetime, Bloomberg and most recently, Polaris+. The biggest change to this roster is HBO. Starting April 12 for the premiere of the new season of Game of Thrones, Sling TV will offer live HBO for $15 a month to current Best of Live TV subscribers. Also new is the addition of DishWorld multi-lingual content to Sling TV. In addition to the base subscription, seven add-on packages are available for $5 apiece each month: a.. Kids Extra, with Disney Jr, Disney XD, Boomerang, Duck TV, and Baby TV. b.. Sports Extra, which includes the SEC Network, ESPNEWS, ESPNU, Universal Sports, Univision Deportes, beIN Sports, ESPN Buzzer Beater, ESPN Bases Loaded and ESPN Goal Line. c.. Lifestyle extra, with Cooking Channel, DIY, truTV, WE tv, FYI, and LMN. d.. Hollywood Extra, which includes live and video-on-demand content from EPIX, EPIX2, EPIX3, EPIX Drive-In, Sundance TV and Turner Classic Movies (TCM) e.. World News Extra, with HLN, News 18 India, Euronews, NDTV 24x7, France24 and RT. f.. Deportes Extra includes Azteca, beIN Español, beIN HD (English), Univison, Univision Deportes and UniMás. g.. Películas Novelas Extra includes Azteca Corazon, Cinelatino, De Película, De Película Clasico, Pasiones, Univision tlnovelas, Univision and UniMás. FunctionalityNow, remember when you asked about Slingbox? Well, it's true, Sling TV and Slingbox share a few similarities beyond the first syllable. Sling TV allows you to pause, rewind and fast-forward live TV on some channels (note the word some there), and the ability to watch shows a few days after they've aired. Also similar to Slingbox, Sling TV lets you watch its service on most mobile devices anywhere in the world. That is, as long as you can establish and maintain a bitrate of about 1.5 Mbps for high-quality streams, 0.8Mbps for medium resolution, and 0.5 Mbps for low-quality. Sling TV on Roku TechRadar was given two platforms to test Sling TV. One was Roku (specifically on a Roku 3) and the other was iOS, which we'll get to in a minute. By and large, the experience on Roku was everything I've come to love about a cable box: simple functionality, clean layout and crisp picture. Installing the app

However, you can still go to the developer's website and contact them directly. This is probably a better way to bring up accessibility issues than through reviews anyway, since it's private communication with the dev. To get the contact information, check out the Information section at the bottom of an app's page. It should include the developer's website.

Basically what you do is you go through 5 rounds of multiple choice questions and then the final round is as the name says, you answer a series of true or false questions to determine the winner. The only annoyance is that if you keep the app open, it doesn't auto refresh so the only way I could take my turn is if I close the app and reopen it. I'd report it to them by writing a review but I can't because I read somewhere that Apple restricts beta testers from writing reviews. If you download the game, could you all report it?

Larry, I see that although your subject says version 12.2.1, one of your messages said that your new version is 12.2.2. I had missed that message until now- so is 12.2.2 actually what you are using?

RE: Apple Tv
Nobody knows which if any of the new features will be supported by the third generation Apple TV. It is likely that one of the big features will be an app store for the Apple TV which allows you to install apps which third party developers will make. These could be anything from games to apps from organisations like CNN or BBC to apps from music services like Spotify, Deezer and so on. This will hugely enhance the functionality and usefulness of the Apple TV since it of course is logical that you may want to play content from a music service or news organization via your TV or sound system the Apple TV is attached to. Of course the app store may be supported by the third gen Apple TV, but nobody can say for sure. Another expected enhancement to the Apple TV is SIRI integration and control. My guess is that you will be able to talk to the Apple TV via the remote and tell it to open a certain app or play something etc. I highly doubt that the third gen Apple TV which is already 3-year old hardware will be able to support this. Next is the upcoming offering of a subscription based TV service. Once again, maybe this will be supported or maybe not. One should keep in mind that while the second gen Apple TV still can play Netflix and a bunch of the existing channels, it does not even have Youtube support any more. This quietly disappeared a few months ago. Lastly there is the expected integration and support of many connected home automation devices like thermostats, lights, locks and so on. You may not have these now, but such devices will be the norm rather than the exception in the coming years. I think in general that it is simply a bad idea to rush out and buy an Apple TV now even though it may only be $50 especially because we already know from rumours that a new Apple TV maybe announced as soon as September 9. That is only 3 weeks away and within another week or so we probably know for sure if Apple is sending out invites for a September 9 event or if it will be held a week later. Why not wait these few weeks and see what happens, if no Apple TV is forthcoming you can still spend your $50 in 3 weeks, but what you can currently do with the Apple TV will not replace your existing cable subscription. I would give the same advice to somebody who wants to buy a new iPhone although that is a bit different because iPhones are updated annually whereas the last Apple TV update was 3 years ago. It is my guess that while a new Apple TV will probably cost more than $50, it will not be hundreds of Dollars simply because it is in Apple's interest to keep the price low so people get it and then subscribe to channels, consume paid iTunes content or buy apps from the new Apple TV app store which of course will generate a new source of income for Apple.

Re: New Trivia Game
Hi Shawn, You're right that people running iOS betas can't write reviews. However, you can still go to the developer's website and contact them directly. This is probably a better way to bring up accessibility issues than through reviews anyway, since it's private communication with the dev. To get the contact information, check out the Information section at the bottom of an app's page. It should include the developer's website.

It's called True Or False Quiz Battle. Basically what you do is you go through 5 rounds of multiple choice questions and then the final round is as the name says, you answer a series of true or false questions to determine the winner. The only annoyance is that if you keep the app open, it doesn't auto refresh so the only way I could take my turn is if I close the app and reopen it. I'd report it to them by writing a review but I can't because I read somewhere that Apple restricts beta testers from writing reviews. If you download the game, could you all report it?

RE: Disappearing audiobooks in the audible app
Craig, Thanks for yours and others' posts about Audible and its problems with recent versions. I admit I've been updating the app all along but haven't been using it as of late since I've mostly been reading BARD books. Now that you've provided a reliable version number, I uninstalled the most recent Audible version from my iPhone 6 and reinstalled version 2.42. I'll sit tight with it until we hear consistent positive comments about a later version.

I'm sorry to tell you I have given up using any version of Audible later than Version 2.4.2. The latest roll-outs have been too unsable. The current ersion carries a scandalously low average rating of 2 stars. Audible's apology for customer troubles, found in the description of the app, is pathetic.

RE: Caution: Apple Tech Says Audible App Has Slightly Damaged my iOS Installation
Hi Craig, You wrote in your original post that the rep suggested removing the app or apps in question may fix the issue which it appears is poor battery life. If this is so I fail to see how installing these apps “damaged” th iOS installation. First of all the sandbox approach Apple takes probably prevents an app from actually “damaging” iOS itself. Secondly, if removing the app fixes the issue then iOS can’t be damaged since deleting an app from your phone does not result in any sort of restore to a prvious state in iOS. I think maybe this was simply a poor choice of words from the rep. As Paul said, all Apple technical reps are not the same and maybe he just meant to say that the current version of Audible results in more power consumption. This last issue I think I can confirm. I use Audible quite a lot and it seems that since this last update I am constantly running low on battery and actually ran my phone down to where it shut off by itself a few times which usually doesn’t happen before. I am going to take a closer look at the battery usage statistics, but I think the current version of Audible has done something to the battery life in addition to occasionally causing the 2-finger double tap not to work. The same, by the way, applies to when you use the remote on the Apple Earpods. Quite often since the last update I want to stop my book by pressing the pause button on the remote and instead of stopping the book that is playing it starts playing music. I hope a lot of Audible users here call them or email them because the entire series of 2.5.x updates are simply sucks.

When a customer has a battery evaluation, the tech is looking at the number of relatively full charges over a specific period of time and can see which apps are using the most power.

Problem downloading u.k. english voice on a 4S
Hi I had to restore my 4S and updated the software to 8.4.1, then restoring from a prior backup. Now, I like to use the u.k. enhanced voice, but after the restore I have some problems with this. The voice does not sound the same, and when I look at the settings, I hear that 68 mb of 156 mb has been downloaded. No matter what I do, I can not get the download to continue, and I have no idea if there is a way one could remove the voice and somehow restart the download again. It seems as if the phone is now stuck in this mode. I really need to get a new phone, as this one is old, but finance is a problem right now. To make it even more difficult, my lock/sleep button does not function properly, it seems the little spring has gone, so I can not really switch the phone off and on, to try and reset it in that way, and the only way to reset it now seems to be via itunes and a restore option. Any help on what I could do would be appreciated. Where I live there is no apple store, and in the end the phone will have to be sent somewhere to have the button repaired at least.

It is likely that one of the big features will be an app store for the Apple TV which allows you to install apps which third party developers will make. These could be anything from games to apps from organisations like CNN or BBC to apps from music services like Spotify, Deezer and so on. This will hugely enhance the functionality and usefulness of the Apple TV since it of course is logical that you may want to play content from a music service or news organization via your TV or sound system the Apple TV is attached to. Of course the app store may be supported by the third gen Apple TV, but nobody can say for sure. Another expected enhancement to the Apple TV is SIRI integration and control. My guess is that you will be able to talk to the Apple TV via the remote and tell it to open a certain app or play something etc. I highly doubt that the third gen Apple TV which is already 3-year old hardware will be able to support this. Next is the upcoming offering of a subscription based TV service. Once again, maybe this will be supported or maybe not. One should keep in mind that while the second gen Apple TV still can play Netflix and a bunch of the existing channels, it does not even have Youtube support any more. This quietly disappeared a few months ago. Lastly there is the expected integration and support of many connected home automation devices like thermostats, lights, locks and so on. You may not have these now, but such devices will be the norm rather than the exception in the coming years. I think in general that it is simply a bad idea to rush out and buy an Apple TV now even though it may only be $50 especially because we already know from rumours that a new Apple TV maybe announced as soon as September 9. That is only 3 weeks away and within another week or so we probably know for sure if Apple is sending out invites for a September 9 event or if it will be held a week later. Why not wait these few weeks and see what happens, if no Apple TV is forthcoming you can still spend your $50 in 3 weeks, but what you can currently do with the Apple TV will not replace your existing cable subscription. I would give the same advice to somebody who wants to buy a new iPhone although that is a bit different because iPhones are updated annually whereas the last Apple TV update was 3 years ago. It is my guess that while a new Apple TV will probably cost more than $50, it will not be hundreds of Dollars simply because it is in Apple's interest to keep the price low so people get it and then subscribe to channels, consume paid iTunes content or buy apps from the new Apple TV app store which of course will generate a new source of income for Apple.

RE: Disappearing audiobooks in the audible app
Hi Mary, For me this issue has mostly gone away, but sometimes it still happens as well and in my case a Refresh will not help. I can usually get things back to normal by closing the app in the app switcher and reopening it again, but it does seem to happen a lot less often than before. Having said that, Audible does say something about this in their What's New notes from the last update and I believe they said something that if users have been experiencing this before that this last update does still not fix it.

RE: Apple Tv
Hi Laury, I don't think you'll regret waiting to see what Apple has in store for us regarding the Apple TV. I have a second gen Apple TV and even though Youtube has been gone from it for several months I decided to wait for the fourth gen Apple TV which I will definitely want to get. As far as saving a lot, this may be a bit further away since I also heard that Apple is still making deals with content providers and many subscription based channels may not be available until 2016. Anyhow, once the official announcement comes we'll find out all of these detiails.

Why not wait these few weeks and see what happens, if no Apple TV is forthcoming you can still spend your $50 in 3 weeks, but what you can currently do with the Apple TV will not replace your existing cable subscription. I would give the same advice to somebody who wants to buy a new iPhone although that is a bit different because iPhones are updated annually whereas the last Apple TV update was 3 years ago. It is my guess that while a new Apple TV will probably cost more than $50, it will not be hundreds of Dollars simply because it is in Apple's interest to keep the price low so people get it and then subscribe to channels, consume paid iTunes content or buy apps from the new Apple TV app store which of course will generate a new source of income for Apple.

Re: Disappearing audiobooks in the audible app
Thanks, Craig, for the number of the last stable version. However, since I never update using iTunes anymore, I don't guess that will do me any good. That brings up my other pet peeve, about Apple not letting us roll back within the phone or the iPad. Given the sloppy programming that's going on with big companies like audible/Amazon, this seems like it would be a very very useful thing to have.

Re: Disappearing audiobooks in the audible app
Hi C card, I haven't found any luck with closing audible and then coming back in. And refreshes don't always work, that is just one. Sometimes it takes too. And sometimes it's the refresh button in the app, and sometimes it's the one under the settings button, even though that is supposed to be for your library, and not your device. I have seen the problem with both books in my library disappearing and books on the devicedisappearing temporarily. I remember seeing that note about the disappearance problem, but I had not been having it until I updated. So naturally, stupidly, I assumed that, since I wasn't having the problem, the update would not introduce it. However, it did so in spades. I think I will call their tech support and complain, if for no other reason than to let them know that there is yet one more person out there experiencing this ridiculous annoying issue. I wonder if Amazon taking them over has adversely affected their ability to program well. I know that is just plain snarky, but I'm so disgusted with Amazon, that it wouldn't surprise me. I still have an old iPad one with audible. It works great. The iPad is very slow, and it is also almost full, but it works wonderfully well. Something to be said for old stable programs.

RE: transfering documents
Hi Martin, All models of the iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad are iOS devices hence iOS is the only operating system which will work; you can't install Windows on an iOS device the same way as you can on a Mac. As far as having Word documents on your iPod Touch, the short answer is Yes. You can achieve this in a number of ways. The easiest would be to install the Dropbox or OneDrive app on your iPod Touch as well as on your computer and to have the documents in a Dropbox or OneDrive folder. They would then show up on your iPod Touch and you can open and read them. If you want to also edit them you would have to install the Microsoft Word app from the App Store. I am not completely up-to-date on all the details regarding accessibility and what you can do, but I believe Microsoft has made Word quite accessible and I also think you no longer need an Office 365 subscription for many of the editing functions. You can probably get most of that information from the app description of the Word app and of course find a lot more by Googling Word for iOS. If you are not a Dropbox and/or OneDrive user, you can also get all the basic information by doing a Google search about these services. Keep in mind that if you want to use Word on your iPod Touch it's probably better to use OneDrive since it is from Microsoft and integrates better.
