Re: unable to update phone

 Thanks for the tip! I've accidentally activated it before, but never 
knew of its potential.

Also, if you ever have problems finding something on the screen, don't forget 
the item chooser. It's a powerful feature and if you use it on that software 
update screen you'll find the install button very easily. Just do a 2-finger 
triple tap to invoke it.
Once you found the link, button or other element you want, a double tap will move you to it and if 
you flick down once first (action rotor is active here) you will go from "Move To" which 
is the default to "Activate" and if you double tap on that the link or button you are 
selecting will be activated right away.
You can practice this simply by bringing up the item chooser when you are on your home 
screen. If you have a full home screen with 4 items in a row and 5 rows + your row of 4 
docked items, the item chooser will say it has 24 items and all your apps and/or folders 
on that home screen including the dock items are displayed in alphabetical order. If you 
find, for example, the Phone app and simply double tap on it, Voiceover focus will be 
placed on the phone app and you can then double tap to activate /open it. If you first 
flick up or down to put focus on the "Activate" option in the rotor, the Phone 
app will immediately open.

Are you sure the three finger swipe up is registering? Are you getting the
page 3 of 4 message or whatever it says? I had this issue prior to IOS 9,
and a three finger swipe up to move to the next page followed by exploring
the screen for the word install always did the trick.

still using I.O.S. 8.4.

Hello,
That might be why. I was on 30%, adapter on, and it automatically

  Hi Vicky,

   

  Are you confusing Windows 10 with iOS 10? As Shawn pointed out, iOS 9.2 will 
be next, Apple has already released the fourth public beta a couple of days ago 
and I would guess that it will be publically available within a week or two. 
There may be another beta next week with the final release in the first week of 
December, but it won’t be long now.

  iOS 9 will continue until next September, another 10 months or so. Apple 
usually announces major iOS releases in June with first developer beta testing 
and then a bit later public beta testing and the final release in mid September.

  Thank you to everyone who answered my question. After several swipe attempts

  Are people having luck with I.O.S. 10 or should I hold off on that one?

Re: TV GuideMobile Is Back and It's Better Than Ever

2015-11-20 Thread Richard Turner

Mark, while I'm sure you believe sincerely that you recommended this app from a 
totally blind person's perspective, I respectfully disagree. 
Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted your original post, but you gave none of 
the VoiceOver work around steps in the original post that you now have included 
in your answers to everyone's comments. Having to do the VoiceOver Pass Through 
gesture and slide left is not an obvious thing to do when presented with a 
screen that only says to swipe left.,
I found a good work around fairly quickly because I am used to having to work 
around apps that are not immediately accessible. 
I've been using iOS devices since 2009, and took to them like the perverbial 
duck to water. But, I do not consider an app wonderfully accessible when the 
first thing you have to do is figure out a work around because the stated 
gesture does not work with VoiceOver.
I agree that once you are in the meat of the app, it is excellent.
Richard

Tips for knowing changes from iOS6.1.3 to latest?

2015-11-20 Thread Gerardo Corripio

 HI guys
As stated here in previous days, I recently got a 4S having updated to 
the latest iOS 9.1; Previously when I had my 3GS almost three years, I 
was stuck with iOS6.1.3, thus the jump from 6 to latest is kind of 
overwhelming! thus what tips would you guys suggest apart from maybe 
listening to the AppleVis podcasts on "What's New for each iOS? How have 
you guys when jumping from 6 to latest, managed to kind of know the 
changes? for instance yesterday I was all of a sudden, put in to some 
kind of Voiceover Help mode from within Whatsapp, thus changes like 
these that sometimes kind of get me off the loop a bit! thanks for info.

Re: TV GuideMobile Is Back and It's Better Than Ever

2015-11-20 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Mark,
I appreciate the fact that you covered a lot of things in one post rather than 
making several posts. However, I have to disagree with you about your notion 
when you say that excess ability can mean different things. I don't have a 
problem with a glowing recommendation for an app which is mostly accessible. 
However, not pointing out the immediate problem that you have when you first 
open the app is in my view not doing anyone service. Sure,  there is apparently 
a workaround for this problem. I think that making this problem and it's 
solution clear in the initial post would have really helped. And I think people 
should do that. Even with an app is mostly accessible, when making the initial 
review of the app, pointing out to people where there are still issues is 
helpful. That way they will know in advance what you already learned.

Re: unable to update phone

2015-11-20 Thread Gerardo Corripio
 Wow thanks for the tip! I've seen before I accidentally activated Item 
Chooser, but never understood its potential. Thanks again for the tip!


El 20/11/2015 12:55 a.m., Sieghard Weitzel escribió:

Also, if you ever have problems finding something on the screen, don't forget 
the item chooser. It's a powerful feature and if you use it on that software 
update screen you'll find the install button very easily. Just do a 2-finger 
triple tap to invoke it.
Once you found the link, button or other element you want, a double tap will move you to it and if 
you flick down once first (action rotor is active here) you will go from "Move To" which 
is the default to "Activate" and if you double tap on that the link or button you are 
selecting will be activated right away.
You can practice this simply by bringing up the item chooser when you are on your home 
screen. If you have a full home screen with 4 items in a row and 5 rows + your row of 4 
docked items, the item chooser will say it has 24 items and all your apps and/or folders 
on that home screen including the dock items are displayed in alphabetical order. If you 
find, for example, the Phone app and simply double tap on it, Voiceover focus will be 
placed on the phone app and you can then double tap to activate /open it. If you first 
flick up or down to put focus on the "Activate" option in the rotor, the Phone 
app will immediately open.

Sieghard

the screen for the word install always did the trick.

Please, I need info about this particular model - external battery question.

2015-11-20 Thread Mária Orovčíková

Hello list
please, is there anyone having this battery? I am interested in this 
particular model:
2nd Gen Astro Mini 3200mAh Portable Charger External Battery Power Bank 
with PowerIQ Technology.

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps=[Apple+MFi+Certified]+Anker+2nd+Gen+Astro+Mini+3200mAh+Portable+Charger+External+Battery+Power+Bank+
I am just wondering if this model will fit with Iphone 6 and otterbox 
deffender case. I do not want to remove the case, so I am looking for a 
battery of small size, but decent capacity, for charging Iphone 6 at 
least once to its full capacity and so that the battery fits with Iphone 
6 and otterbox deffender.
I also do not want a case with built-in battery, I have been fine with 
Otterbox deffender so far.
Since the battery I am asking about is not available here in Slovakia 
and I will have to order it from abroad, I need to know the info in advance.
I know stores have policy of returning products in case customers do not 
like it, but I want to avoid that because all shipping fees would cost 
me much much more than the product itself.
I know I should ask sellers to provide this info, and I will certainly 
do that, but as there are various cases available on the market, sellers 
might not know.

So it will be kind of risky to buy the battery without knowing these things.
I will be grateful for any kind of help/advice/suggestion.
Thank you very much in advance.
With kind regards
Maria

RE: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service

2015-11-20 Thread Cristóbal
One thing  to keep in mind with Sprint is that it's CDMA. Personally, I'm never 
doing another Sprint branded phone. GSM or even a Verizon phone that can also 
be used on GSM networks.

Subject: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the USA, 
Sprint Launches LTE+ Service

Hello Everyone,

Sprint announced it is launching it's new LTE + 3 band LTE service in 77
markets in the USA.  This also comes with an offer to cut T-Mobile, AT and
Verizon plan costs in half.

The following is the text to the article the link to which is located at the
end of the piece.

Enjoy,

Mark

print today launched its LTE Plus network, which is available today in 77
major markets in the U.S. To celebrate, the carrier is announcing what its
calling "the biggest wireless offer in U.S. history", offering 50 percent
off of T-Mobile, Verizon and AT rate plans. The offer runs from November
20 to January 7, 2016 and the pricing remains in place until January 8,
2018.

"We've made tremendous strides with our network because we know consumers
want wireless service that provides consistent speed and reliability," said
Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are so confident that customers will have an
amazing experience that we are encouraging them to give us a try with the
biggest wireless offer in the history of our industry. Customers switching
to Sprint will never need to look elsewhere. They will learn what our 58
million customers already know - Sprint offers the best value and an
award-winning network."

T-Mobile, Verizon and AT customers who want to switch to the network will
get Sprint plans that mirror their old plans, only for half the price. For
example, a T-Mobile customer with four lines and 10 GB of data per line pays
$180 per month at T-Mobile, but will only pay $90 at Sprint. An AT family
who pays $100 for 15 GB data will get the same thing at Sprint for $50.
Verizon customers paying $80 for 12 GB will get the same for $40. Verizon
and AT customers will also get 50 percent off access fees.

The discounts are only available to consumer plans for Verizon's 1 GB, 3 GB,
6 GB, 12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB and 25 GB shared data plans, T-Mobile's Simple
Choice 2 GB, 6 GB and 10 GB plans and AT's 300 MB, 2 GB, 5 GB, 15 GB, 20
GB and 25 GB shared data plans. Specific carrier features like unlimited
music and video, data rollover and cloud options do not carryover to Sprint.

Customers switching over to Sprint can also take advantage of iPhone
Forever, Sprint's plan that allows customers to upgrade to a new iPhone
every year. It's also a "worry-free" offer, with customers having 28 days to
try out Sprint's service. If they're not happy, they can return it without
incurring a restocking fee. Sprint will also pay any switching fees up to
$650 per line with an American Express Reward Card after online registration
and phone turn-in. 

Sprint says its new LTE Plus network is faster than Verizon's and AT's
networks, citing Nielsen Mobile Performance data. NMP uses crowdsourced data
from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found
that in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it
fastest on Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100
Mbps, includes stronger service with an extended 2.5 GHz signal and more
reliable service with three bands of spectrum: 1.9 GHz for broad coverage,
800 MHz for indoor coverage and 2.5 GHz for faster speeds.

Current Sprint customers will get a free tablet with one year of free
service while supplies last. Sprint says this offer is a $360 value.

RE: Best Case for iPhone 6S

2015-11-20 Thread Cristóbal
I'm partial to the Ballistic cases. The size and weight it adds to the phone is 
minimal and the buffer edge it provides around the screen is more than  what a 
lot of other cases have. 
I don’t'  care for Otterbox or those other cases that turn your phone into a 
mini transformer and make it hard to insert and remove from the case. Getting a 
phone in and out of a Ballistic case is straight forward and doesn't involve x 
amount of pieces and possibly bending a nail prying  open this or that.

RE: how do you tell songs that are better copies from your originals in your music after iTunes match

2015-11-20 Thread Don & Cher
If you imported songs from CDs using Apple Lossless, they will have much higher 
bit rates than songs purchased from Apple. In your list of songs, use the view 
options to turn on bps. However, I agree that at this point your original 
Imported songs have been replaced by iMatch versions.

Yes, I didn’t think I’d have two copies but was wondering which ones were 
better kb256 copies.  Thanks.

Hi Larry,
I'm not sure what you mean with her question. You will only have one copy of 
each item after iTunes match is done. Were you thinking you would have two 
copies, when the original and the other one from the server? Or were you 
wondering how to tell which of the songs is from the server and which is still 
your original after the match is done? I'm actually not sure anymore how to do 
that. It seems to me that it used to say next to the song something about cloud 
or local or match or something. I can't remember. But mine doesn't say that 
anymore and hasn't for sometime. Generally speaking, if the things that you are 
matching were all ripped from CDs, and you did it at a high bit rate, the 
server will probably not replace what you had. But if you ripped it at say 120 
8K bps, then those will be replaced, assuming they are in the Apple music 
collection and can therefore be replaced. Otherwise, those will just be 
uploaded to the cloud and will be available to you on all of your i-devices and 
your PC of course.

For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service

2015-11-20 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

Sprint announced it is launching it's new LTE + 3 band LTE service in 77
markets in the USA.  This also comes with an offer to cut T-Mobile, AT and
Verizon plan costs in half.

The following is the text to the article the link to which is located at the
end of the piece.

Enjoy,

Mark

print today launched its LTE Plus network, which is available today in 77
major markets in the U.S. To celebrate, the carrier is announcing what its
calling "the biggest wireless offer in U.S. history", offering 50 percent
off of T-Mobile, Verizon and AT rate plans. The offer runs from November
20 to January 7, 2016 and the pricing remains in place until January 8,
2018.

"We've made tremendous strides with our network because we know consumers
want wireless service that provides consistent speed and reliability," said
Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are so confident that customers will have an
amazing experience that we are encouraging them to give us a try with the
biggest wireless offer in the history of our industry. Customers switching
to Sprint will never need to look elsewhere. They will learn what our 58
million customers already know - Sprint offers the best value and an
award-winning network."

T-Mobile, Verizon and AT customers who want to switch to the network will
get Sprint plans that mirror their old plans, only for half the price. For
example, a T-Mobile customer with four lines and 10 GB of data per line pays
$180 per month at T-Mobile, but will only pay $90 at Sprint. An AT family
who pays $100 for 15 GB data will get the same thing at Sprint for $50.
Verizon customers paying $80 for 12 GB will get the same for $40. Verizon
and AT customers will also get 50 percent off access fees.

The discounts are only available to consumer plans for Verizon's 1 GB, 3 GB,
6 GB, 12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB and 25 GB shared data plans, T-Mobile's Simple
Choice 2 GB, 6 GB and 10 GB plans and AT's 300 MB, 2 GB, 5 GB, 15 GB, 20
GB and 25 GB shared data plans. Specific carrier features like unlimited
music and video, data rollover and cloud options do not carryover to Sprint.

Customers switching over to Sprint can also take advantage of iPhone
Forever, Sprint's plan that allows customers to upgrade to a new iPhone
every year. It's also a "worry-free" offer, with customers having 28 days to
try out Sprint's service. If they're not happy, they can return it without
incurring a restocking fee. Sprint will also pay any switching fees up to
$650 per line with an American Express Reward Card after online registration
and phone turn-in. 

Sprint says its new LTE Plus network is faster than Verizon's and AT's
networks, citing Nielsen Mobile Performance data. NMP uses crowdsourced data
from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found
that in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it
fastest on Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100
Mbps, includes stronger service with an extended 2.5 GHz signal and more
reliable service with three bands of spectrum: 1.9 GHz for broad coverage,
800 MHz for indoor coverage and 2.5 GHz for faster speeds.

Current Sprint customers will get a free tablet with one year of free
service while supplies last. Sprint says this offer is a $360 value.

RE: starting to Twitter

2015-11-20 Thread Cristóbal
Tweetings was my go to Twitter app after it was apparent TweetList4 was 
abandoned. More and more however, I have found myself going back to 
Twitterrific. There were some scrolling bugs that I didn't care for, but have 
since been fixed in Twitterrific and it's gotten better at maintaining one's 
place. While I do like Tweetings a lot, there is way too much app crashing and 
hanging with VO that haven't really gotten better with updates. Also, I have 
noticed that with Tweetings, entire chunks of tweets will simply not show. If I 
don't check into it for a while and refresh the main home list, my tweets can 
jump from say three hours to one hour ago, etc. Twittterrific doesn’t' do this. 
Twitterrific also has the URL shortening which is very helpful to cut down on 
Voiceover chatter. That said, I do prefer Tweetings' way of reading out 
retweets and quoted tweets.
The official Twitter app was fairly decent for a short bit, but it's been 
forever since I really tried to use it as accessibility didn't get better and 
in fact, got worse.

RE: TV GuideMobile Is Back and It's Better Than Ever

2015-11-20 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Ed,

The first time you launch the app, there is a welcome screen that is a series 
of screenshots that VoiceOver does not announce.  There are two ways to bypass 
this screen, the simpler of which is to turn off VoiceOver, then single-finger 
drag from right to left about 5 or so times.  After doing this, turn VoiceOver 
back on and explore the screen upon which you will locate the finish button.  
Activate that button to be taken into the app.  You only have to navigate the 
welcome screen, once.  The second way to navigate the welcome screen is to 
single-finger double-tap, hold, and drag from right to left, about 5 or so 
times in order to display the Finish button.

Mark

Re: aftershox head phones

2015-11-20 Thread Andy Baracco
I have the Bluez 2 and I believe that there is now a Bluez 2S but I see no 
justification to upgrade. I know that they were running an Indygogo campaign 
to raise money for a new product called the Titanium Trekz which should be 
available for general purchase in spring 2016. I did not preorder through 
Indygogo and I do not know if that effort succeeded, but I may buy them if 
they become available because the Titanium housing should be more flexible 
and less likely to crack or break. They also mentioned something called Leak 
Slayer, which is a technology that is supposed to greatly reduce the audio 
bleed, but they say this kind of thing whenever they release an upgraded 
product.

Has anyone tried the new Aftershox head phones? The new model is supposed to

One thing  to keep in mind with Sprint is that it's CDMA. Personally, I'm 
never doing another Sprint branded phone. GSM or even a Verizon phone that 
can also be used on GSM networks.

Subject: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the 
USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service


Hello Everyone,

Sprint announced it is launching it's new LTE + 3 band LTE service in 77
markets in the USA.  This also comes with an offer to cut T-Mobile, AT and
Verizon plan costs in half.

The following is the text to the article the link to which is located at the
end of the piece.

Enjoy,

Mark

print today launched its LTE Plus network, which is available today in 77
major markets in the U.S. To celebrate, the carrier is announcing what its
calling "the biggest wireless offer in U.S. history", offering 50 percent
off of T-Mobile, Verizon and AT rate plans. The offer runs from November
20 to January 7, 2016 and the pricing remains in place until January 8,
2018.

"We've made tremendous strides with our network because we know consumers
want wireless service that provides consistent speed and reliability," said
Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are so confident that customers will have an
amazing experience that we are encouraging them to give us a try with the
biggest wireless offer in the history of our industry. Customers switching
to Sprint will never need to look elsewhere. They will learn what our 58
million customers already know - Sprint offers the best value and an
award-winning network."

T-Mobile, Verizon and AT customers who want to switch to the network will
get Sprint plans that mirror their old plans, only for half the price. For
example, a T-Mobile customer with four lines and 10 GB of data per line pays
$180 per month at T-Mobile, but will only pay $90 at Sprint. An AT family
who pays $100 for 15 GB data will get the same thing at Sprint for $50.
Verizon customers paying $80 for 12 GB will get the same for $40. Verizon
and AT customers will also get 50 percent off access fees.

The discounts are only available to consumer plans for Verizon's 1 GB, 3 GB,
6 GB, 12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB and 25 GB shared data plans, T-Mobile's Simple
Choice 2 GB, 6 GB and 10 GB plans and AT's 300 MB, 2 GB, 5 GB, 15 GB, 20
GB and 25 GB shared data plans. Specific carrier features like unlimited
music and video, data rollover and cloud options do not carryover to Sprint.

Customers switching over to Sprint can also take advantage of iPhone
Forever, Sprint's plan that allows customers to upgrade to a new iPhone
every year. It's also a "worry-free" offer, with customers having 28 days to
try out Sprint's service. If they're not happy, they can return it without
incurring a restocking fee. Sprint will also pay any switching fees up to
$650 per line with an American Express Reward Card after online registration
and phone turn-in.

Sprint says its new LTE Plus network is faster than Verizon's and AT's
networks, citing Nielsen Mobile Performance data. NMP uses crowdsourced data
from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found
that in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it
fastest on Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100
Mbps, includes stronger service with an extended 2.5 GHz signal and more
reliable service with three bands of spectrum: 1.9 GHz for broad coverage,
800 MHz for indoor coverage and 2.5 GHz for faster speeds.

Current Sprint customers will get a free tablet with one year of free
service while supplies last. Sprint says this offer is a $360 value.

Re: starting to Twitter

2015-11-20 Thread Alex Hall
Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do anything like that, 
on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus. Gap-filling can be set to automatic, which 
should take care of the missing tweets. URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean 
Twitterrific reads only the t.co links, I'd rather hear the short version of 
the actual link so I know where I'm going. Both are solid apps, and each has 
things the other lacks. All I can suggest is to try both, or at least find 
podcasts on both, to help make the choice.

Re: starting to Twitter

2015-11-20 Thread Jonathan Mosen
I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a lot of 
Twitter lists, and I find Twitterific doesn't do a good job of retaining one's 
place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is that opening links is 
unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many taps, but it's a fantastic client 
overall.

Unsubscribing for a While

2015-11-20 Thread Alex Hall
Just a note to say I'll be unsubscribing for a while. It's nothing on the 
list--not a member, or a policy, or anything like that. I just get so many 
messages that my Apple email folder is constantly flooded. By the time I get to 
them, they've usually been answered, and I end up deleting nearly everything 
that comes in. I'm just trying to cut back on my email; I'll remain on the 
MacVisionaries list, but I'm dropping this and the other Apple/VO lists for a 
bit. Again, it's not the fault of the list or anyone on it, it's just too much 
traffic with too little benefit for the moment. My @VOTips Twitter account is 
still active, and I'm still on AppleVis if anyone needs to get ahold of me.

I'm happy with the iPad in a Griffin Survivor,  but it is pocket issues -

I'm partial to the Ballistic cases. The size and weight it adds to the phone is 
minimal and the buffer edge it provides around the 
screen is more than  what a lot of other cases have.
I don’t'  care for Otterbox or those other cases that turn your phone into a

from the case. Getting a phone in and out of a Ballistic case is straight

You won't go wrong with any of the Anker batteries, they are very good and 
consistently get very high ratings. The particular battery you provided a link 
for has all the information you are asking for in the description. For example, 
it says:

The Apple Connection: This 3ft Lightning cable charges your Apple gear via a 
super slim connector head. MFI certification means it will sync, too,  no 
problem.
The included Lightning cable does not fit Lifeproof iPhone 6 cases, but fits 
the vast majority of other cases.

I also do not want a case with built-in battery, I have been fine with Otterbox

Since the battery I am asking about is not available here in Slovakia and I 
will have to order it from abroad, I need to know the info in advance.
I know stores have policy of returning products in case customers do not like 
it, but I want to avoid that because all shipping fees would cost me much much 
more than the product itself.
I know I should ask sellers to provide this info, and I will certainly do that, 
but as there are various cases available on the market, sellers might not know.
So it will be kind of risky to buy the battery without knowing these things.
I will be grateful for any kind of help/advice/suggestion.
Thank you very much in advance.

Re: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service

2015-11-20 Thread Brent Harding
I think they are all unlockable now after the contract or payment plan are 
paid off. I think Verizon is as much CDMA as Sprint is. Sprint is a decent 
value for the money though, at least around here. There are places where it 
doesn't work so well, but that problem probably exists with everyone.

One thing  to keep in mind with Sprint is that it's CDMA. Personally, I'm 
never doing another Sprint branded phone. GSM or even a Verizon phone that

Subject: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the 
USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service


Hello Everyone,

Sprint announced it is launching it's new LTE + 3 band LTE service in 77
markets in the USA.  This also comes with an offer to cut T-Mobile, AT 
and

Verizon plan costs in half.

The following is the text to the article the link to which is located at 
the

end of the piece.

Enjoy,

Mark

print today launched its LTE Plus network, which is available today in 77
major markets in the U.S. To celebrate, the carrier is announcing what its
calling "the biggest wireless offer in U.S. history", offering 50 percent
off of T-Mobile, Verizon and AT rate plans. The offer runs from November
20 to January 7, 2016 and the pricing remains in place until January 8,
2018.

"We've made tremendous strides with our network because we know consumers
want wireless service that provides consistent speed and reliability," 
said
Marcelo Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are so confident that customers will have 
an

amazing experience that we are encouraging them to give us a try with the
biggest wireless offer in the history of our industry. Customers switching
to Sprint will never need to look elsewhere. They will learn what our 58
million customers already know - Sprint offers the best value and an
award-winning network."

T-Mobile, Verizon and AT customers who want to switch to the network 
will

get Sprint plans that mirror their old plans, only for half the price. For
example, a T-Mobile customer with four lines and 10 GB of data per line 
pays
$180 per month at T-Mobile, but will only pay $90 at Sprint. An AT 
family

who pays $100 for 15 GB data will get the same thing at Sprint for $50.
Verizon customers paying $80 for 12 GB will get the same for $40. Verizon
and AT customers will also get 50 percent off access fees.

The discounts are only available to consumer plans for Verizon's 1 GB, 3 
GB,

6 GB, 12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB and 25 GB shared data plans, T-Mobile's Simple
Choice 2 GB, 6 GB and 10 GB plans and AT's 300 MB, 2 GB, 5 GB, 15 GB, 20
GB and 25 GB shared data plans. Specific carrier features like unlimited
music and video, data rollover and cloud options do not carryover to 
Sprint.


Customers switching over to Sprint can also take advantage of iPhone
Forever, Sprint's plan that allows customers to upgrade to a new iPhone
every year. It's also a "worry-free" offer, with customers having 28 days 
to

try out Sprint's service. If they're not happy, they can return it without
incurring a restocking fee. Sprint will also pay any switching fees up to
$650 per line with an American Express Reward Card after online 
registration

and phone turn-in.

Sprint says its new LTE Plus network is faster than Verizon's and AT's
networks, citing Nielsen Mobile Performance data. NMP uses crowdsourced 
data

from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found
that in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it
fastest on Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100
Mbps, includes stronger service with an extended 2.5 GHz signal and more
reliable service with three bands of spectrum: 1.9 GHz for broad coverage,
800 MHz for indoor coverage and 2.5 GHz for faster speeds.

Current Sprint customers will get a free tablet with one year of free
service while supplies last. Sprint says this offer is a $360 value.

RE: Best Case for iPhone 6S

2015-11-20 Thread Fazil
I had a little problem with Otterbox Commuter when I had it for my IPhone6Plus.
Power button was getting pushed frequently with just the accidental touch of my 
finger.
So, I replaced it with Otterbox Defender. Defender does not have that problem, 
however, its screen protector does not snugly flush with the screen and leaves 
some air-pockets here and there, thus you have to tap very hard at times.
HTH.

Subject: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the USA, 
Sprint Launches LTE+ Service

Hello Everyone,

Sprint announced it is launching it's new LTE + 3 band LTE service in 77 
markets in the USA.  This also comes with an offer to cut T-Mobile, AT and 
Verizon plan costs in half.

The following is the text to the article the link to which is located at the 
end of the piece.

Enjoy,

Mark

print today launched its LTE Plus network, which is available today in 77 major 
markets in the U.S. To celebrate, the carrier is announcing what its calling 
"the biggest wireless offer in U.S. history", offering 50 percent off of 
T-Mobile, Verizon and AT rate plans. The offer runs from November
20 to January 7, 2016 and the pricing remains in place until January 8, 2018.

"We've made tremendous strides with our network because we know consumers want 
wireless service that provides consistent speed and reliability," said Marcelo 
Claure, Sprint CEO. "We are so confident that customers will have an amazing 
experience that we are encouraging them to give us a try with the biggest 
wireless offer in the history of our industry. Customers switching to Sprint 
will never need to look elsewhere. They will learn what our 58 million 
customers already know - Sprint offers the best value and an award-winning 
network."

T-Mobile, Verizon and AT customers who want to switch to the network will get 
Sprint plans that mirror their old plans, only for half the price. For example, 
a T-Mobile customer with four lines and 10 GB of data per line pays
$180 per month at T-Mobile, but will only pay $90 at Sprint. An AT family who 
pays $100 for 15 GB data will get the same thing at Sprint for $50.
Verizon customers paying $80 for 12 GB will get the same for $40. Verizon and 
AT customers will also get 50 percent off access fees.

The discounts are only available to consumer plans for Verizon's 1 GB, 3 GB,
6 GB, 12 GB, 18 GB, 20 GB and 25 GB shared data plans, T-Mobile's Simple Choice 
2 GB, 6 GB and 10 GB plans and AT's 300 MB, 2 GB, 5 GB, 15 GB, 20 GB and 25 
GB shared data plans. Specific carrier features like unlimited music and video, 
data rollover and cloud options do not carryover to Sprint.

Customers switching over to Sprint can also take advantage of iPhone Forever, 
Sprint's plan that allows customers to upgrade to a new iPhone every year. It's 
also a "worry-free" offer, with customers having 28 days to try out Sprint's 
service. If they're not happy, they can return it without incurring a 
restocking fee. Sprint will also pay any switching fees up to
$650 per line with an American Express Reward Card after online registration 
and phone turn-in. 

Sprint says its new LTE Plus network is faster than Verizon's and AT's 
networks, citing Nielsen Mobile Performance data. NMP uses crowdsourced data 
from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found that 
in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it fastest on 
Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100 Mbps, includes 
stronger service with an extended 2.5 GHz signal and more reliable service with 
three bands of spectrum: 1.9 GHz for broad coverage,
800 MHz for indoor coverage and 2.5 GHz for faster speeds.

Current Sprint customers will get a free tablet with one year of free service 
while supplies last. Sprint says this offer is a $360 value.

Re: aftershox head phones

2015-11-20 Thread Greg Wocher

Hello,
The only issue I really have with these headphones is that the battery 
life is not all that good. I believe it is only 6hrs talk time. My 
plantronics headset I use has a talk time of 11 hrs. If it were not for 
the short talk time of the aftershox these would be the ideal headsets.

Re: aftershox head phones

2015-11-20 Thread Michael Feir
I've ordered the Trex Titaniums during the Indegogo campaign and hope
to have my pair within a month. As long as you have an external
battery, that six-hour limit shouldn't be all that big a deal. So far,
I've heard good things about the sound improvements and the leak
slayer tech introduced in the Blues 2S and Trex Titaniums. I had a
wired pair of their M3 headset and it served me well for around two
years. The wire attachment point where it enters the headset was the
weakness. Eventually, it'll snag and pull on things. It has gotten
loose and I've begun to notice some crackling. I'll be happy to get
the Titaniums despite the battery drain due to Bluetooth. It shouldn't
be that bad especially with external batteries handy. I'll never have
to worry about snagged wires again.

RE: starting to Twitter

2015-11-20 Thread Cristóbal
The one aspect where I find  using Tweetings to be cumbersome and could use 
some improvement is with adding/removing users and managing them in lists. This 
was where TweetList and TweetList4 shined. It could be too that I just don’t’ 
know where and how to better do it within the app.

I agree. Tweetings in general is very good at keeping one’s place.

I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a lot of 
Twitter lists, and I find Twitterific doesn't do a good job of retaining one's 
place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is that opening links is 
unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many taps, but it's a fantastic client 
overall.

Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do anything like that, 
on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus. Gap-filling can be set to automatic, which 
should take care of the missing tweets. URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean 
Twitterrific reads only the t.co links, I'd rather hear the short version of 
the actual link so I know where I'm going. Both are solid apps, and each has 
things the other lacks. All I can suggest is to try both, or at least find 
podcasts on both, to help make the choice.

hanging with VO that haven't really gotten better with updates. Also, I have 
noticed that with Tweetings, entire chunks of tweets will simply not show. If I 
don't check into it for a while and refresh the main home list, my tweets can 
jump from say three hours to one hour ago, etc. Twittterrific doesn’t' do this. 
Twitterrific also has the URL shortening which is very helpful to cut down on 
Voiceover chatter. That said, I do prefer Tweetings' way of reading out 
retweets and quoted tweets.
The official Twitter app was fairly decent for a short bit, but it's been 
forever since I really tried to use it as accessibility didn't get better and 
in fact, got worse.

Re: starting to Twitter

2015-11-20 Thread Greg Wocher

Hello,
I do have a difficult time with tweetings keeping my place in the list. 
It never seems to go back to the right place after I go to a link from 
within the tweet. I also don't like how tweetings displays the time the 
tweet was sent. It will either say 1h or 32 meters instead of 1 hour or 
32 minutes. I use the native twitter app all the time and I find no real 
accessibility issues with it.

I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a

retaining one's place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is that 
opening links is unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many taps, but 
it's a fantastic client overall.

Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do anything
like that, on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus. Gap-filling can be
set to automatic, which should take care of the missing tweets.
URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean Twitterrific reads only the
t.co  links, I'd rather hear the short version of the
actual link so I know where I'm going. Both are solid apps, and
each has things the other lacks. All I can suggest is to try both,
or at least find podcasts on both, to help make the choice.

has the URL shortening which is very helpful to cut down on
Voiceover chatter. That said, I do prefer Tweetings' way of
reading out retweets and quoted tweets.
The official Twitter app was fairly decent for a short bit, but
it's been forever since I really tried to use it as accessibility
didn't get better and in fact, got worse.

Ok,  Then can you send the the list of jestures and how to play?  This is why I 
was in tutorial mode since I don’t know how this game works.

I wouldn’t try to play it on tutorial mode. Play against the easiest and 
slowest player, being Dave. It is very easy to win in that case. 

This game I find to be very intuitive and realistic. I’m up to Amber, the good 
medium player. Trying to get up to expert soon. :D

1 Password - how's it working?

2015-11-20 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Hi,

Recently there was a very nice podcast done on using 1Password, but shortly 
after that there were a number of posts about it not being able to be used 
easily by several folks on this list.

I'm just checking on how things are working out for those who are using 
1Password.

Would ios Keychain be an alternative, or other apps worth considering?

Thanks in advance, Keith

Re: aftershox head phones

2015-11-20 Thread John J Jacques
Hi Michael and all.  I have had the original Aftershox and now have the
Blues2 and one thing I notice is that you can't use the headphones while
plugged in to a power source via the USB port.  I have had no problem
with the band breaking as some have, and the only reason I replaced the
original set is because the USB port broke, so there was no way to charge
them.

Have a good one:

A Quick Question for Those Who Use Google Maps

2015-11-20 Thread M. Taylor
Hello All,

The last time I used Google Maps, about a year or so ago, when on a route,
there was no way to get the app to repeat the last instruction.  Is this
still the case?  

Can one have VoiceOver reat the last/most recent instruction?  

Thank you,

Mark

Re: Air Hockey question

2015-11-20 Thread Brandon A. Olivares
It’s all in the user guide. Basically you tap on the screen to place the puck, 
then slide up to hit it.

When the puck is coming towards you, move your finger left and right to line up 
the puck in front of you. When it’s directly in front of you, you’ll hear a 
ding. Then you can swipe up, or upper left or upper right to hit the puck in 
that direction.

That’s really all there is to it.

Re: Best Case for iPhone 6S

2015-11-20 Thread Cheryl Lenartiene
Hi all,

I am told that the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are slightly thicker than the 
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The cases, therefore, are not interchangeable. I 
looked into getting an OtterBox Defender for my iPhone 6s Plus, but was steered 
away from it by the representative at my cell phone company because the fit 
would have been tight.

Cheryl

Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances;
for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a

of retaining one's place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is 
that opening links is unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many 
taps, but it's a fantastic client overall.

Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do
anything like that, on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus.
Gap-filling can be set to automatic, which should take care of
the missing tweets. URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean
Twitterrific reads only thet.co links, I'd rather
hear the short version of the actual link so I know where I'm
going. Both are solid apps, and each has things the other lacks.
All I can suggest is to try both, or at least find podcasts on
both, to help make the choice.

I already went pass the welcome screen. After using the app and swiping around

Hello Ed,

The first time you launch the app, there is a welcome screen that is a series 
of screenshots that VoiceOver does not announce.  There are two ways to bypass 
this screen, the simpler of which is to turn off VoiceOver, then single-finger 
drag from right to left about 5 or so times.  After doing this, turn VoiceOver 
back on and explore the screen upon which you will locate the finish button.  
Activate that button to be taken into the app.  You only have to navigate the 
welcome screen, once.  The second way to navigate the welcome screen is to 
single-finger double-tap, hold, and drag from right to left, about 5 or so 
times in order to display the Finish button.

 Hi all.
 So, I'm not touching my iPhone... but it will hiss at me sometimes! Lol.
 Different than the mail swoosh! Any idea of why? Seriously... it's kind of

RE: TV GuideMobile Is Back and It's Better Than Ever

2015-11-20 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Anthony and Everyone who has contributed to this thread.

In an effort to reduce list clutter, I will reply to everyone’s comments in 
this one post, okay?  

1.
Anthony, you are quite welcome.  

I believe Tom has already answered your question as to how TV Guide Mobile 
differs from NFB Newsline.  I will add that the NFB solution is wonderful but I 
prefer TV Guide Mobile as, for me anyway, it allows for more seamless 
interaction.

2.
Hello David,  I appreciate your frustration and will not attempt to change your 
opinion of TV Guide Mobile.  However, as with many mainstream programs that 
offer a welcome screen, once navigated, the heart of the program is quite 
accessible.  Just so you know, single-finger, double-tapping, hold and swiping 
to the left will move you through the welcome screen at the end of which 
displays the Finish button.  All I can say is that I have been using this app 
for over 4 years and have enjoyed many, many hours of television programming as 
a direct result of having this useful and accessible tool.

3.
Jenifer, yes, TV Guide Mobile gives episode summaries including original air 
dates.

4.
Les, at present, I cannot reproduce your problem.  That is not to say that 
there is no problem but only that I cannot reproduce it on my 6 Plus.  As a 
possible workaround, single-finger, double-tap on a channel number in the left 
most column in order to display only that channel’s lineup in a simple list 
view.  As for how the app has improved?  Well, now one can change the date and 
time for the displayed listings.  The search feature is completely accessible.  
The menu buttons are properly labeled, etc.  There are many, many VoiceOver 
accessible issues that have finally, finally been resolved.  

5.
Kathy, while I appreciate the fact that the welcome screen does offer a bit of 
a challenge to VoiceOver users, once navigated, the heart of the program is 
quite accessible.  I realize that saying this does not reduce your initial 
disappointment as we have become so used to accessibility being defined by the 
experience encountered at an app’s launch but there are other proverbial 
yardsticks by which to measure accessibility.  Once navigated, you will not 
encounter the Welcome Screen again and will, I think, enjoy the power of this 
tool.

6.
Richard, I assure you that I recommended this app from the perspective of a 
totally blind user.  Many things are difficult, until they are not.  Case in 
point, many new blind iPhone users, whom I have supported over the years, felt 
deceived when they first began using iPhone saying something like, “You said 
this phone was accessible.  People told me that it’s easy to use iPhone but 
it’s not.”  In each and every instance I reply, “I never said it would be 
easy.”  Also in each instance, after a week or so, they usually began to 
realize the power of iPhone.  It is no different with TV Guide Mobile.

7.
Mary, I want to make it clear that I stand by my glowing recommendation of TV 
Guide Mobile.  I believe it to be a very powerful tool for any VoiceOver user 
who wants to browse television listings.  Also, on those few occasions when I 
do recommend apps that are more accessible for low vision users than those who 
are totoally blind, I do not neglect to include that distinction in my post.

Again, thank you all for contributing to this thread.

Mark

Getting back to the main app store page on an ipad mini

2015-11-20 Thread Jen Colley
Hi,  
I was just looking at something in the app store.  Now I want to get back to 
the main app store page on my ipad mini.  I mean where you can get app updates 
etc but I can’t seem to get out of the app info I was looking at.  
I have tried closing the app store in the app switcher and still when I reopen 
it the page returns back to what I was previously looking at.  I even tried 
completely shutting down my iPad and turning it back on but still the same 
thing happens.  
Thanks in advance for any help.

WifiTransfer and folders?

2015-11-20 Thread Gerardo Corripio

 HI guys
I was just up on Apple vis's forum topics, and came across the entry on 
Wifi Transfer and how to transfer from PC to IPhone, and am curious if 
WifiTransfer can transfer folders? For instance if i'm wanting to 
transfer a folder of Oldies, via WifiTransfer, can this be done, or does 
it have to be file per file? What experiences have you guys had with 
wifi Transfer? By the way, the entry if you guys want to give it a read, 
is at AppleVis, but now i can't find it to give you guys the URL!

Hi all,

I am told that the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are slightly thicker than the 
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The cases, therefore, are not interchangeable. I 
looked into getting an OtterBox Defender for my iPhone 6s Plus, but was steered 
away from it by the representative at my cell phone company because the fit 
would have been tight.

I'm partial to the Ballistic cases. The size and weight it adds to the phone is 
minimal and the buffer edge it provides around the 
screen is more than  what a lot of other cases have.
I don’t'  care for Otterbox or those other cases that turn your phone into a 
mini transformer and make it hard to insert and remove 
from the case. Getting a phone in and out of a Ballistic case is straight 
forward and doesn't involve x amount of pieces and 
possibly bending a nail prying  open this or that.

Hello Everyone,

TV Guide Mobile just released its latest version; and, in so doing, has
recommitted itself to VoiceOver accessibility.

In fact, the first item listed in the "what's new" section is the notice
about greatly improved VoiceOver accessibility.

So, I strongly encourage anyone who wants a smooth and marvelously
accessible television listings experience, to download TV Guide Mobile and
give it a whirl.

If you like it, please, please send your feedback to them so they know that
blind and low vision people participate in the television viewing
experience.

Thank You,

Mark

Yes, Mary, I agree. I got the app and have just seen what is wrong with the

Hi Mark,
I appreciate the fact that you covered a lot of things in one post rather 
than making several posts. However, I have to disagree with you about your 
notion when you say that excess ability can mean different things. I don't 
have a problem with a glowing recommendation for an app which is mostly 
accessible. However, not pointing out the immediate problem that you have 
when you first open the app is in my view not doing anyone service. Sure, 
there is apparently a workaround for this problem. I think that making this 
problem and it's solution clear in the initial post would have really 
helped. And I think people should do that. Even with an app is mostly 
accessible, when making the initial review of the app, pointing out to 
people where there are still issues is helpful. That way they will know in 
advance what you already learned.

Hello Anthony and Everyone who has contributed to this thread.

In an effort to reduce list clutter, I will reply to everyone’s comments 
in this one post, okay?


1.
Anthony, you are quite welcome.

I believe Tom has already answered your question as to how TV Guide Mobile 
differs from NFB Newsline.  I will add that the NFB solution is wonderful 
but I prefer TV Guide Mobile as, for me anyway, it allows for more 
seamless interaction.


2.
Hello David,  I appreciate your frustration and will not attempt to change 
your opinion of TV Guide Mobile.  However, as with many mainstream 
programs that offer a welcome screen, once navigated, the heart of the 
program is quite accessible.  Just so you know, single-finger, 
double-tapping, hold and swiping to the left will move you through the 
welcome screen at the end of which displays the Finish button.  All I can 
say is that I have been using this app for over 4 years and have enjoyed 
many, many hours of television programming as a direct result of having 
this useful and accessible tool.


3.
Jenifer, yes, TV Guide Mobile gives episode summaries including original 
air dates.


4.
Les, at present, I cannot reproduce your problem.  That is not to say that 
there is no problem but only that I cannot reproduce it on my 6 Plus.  As 
a possible workaround, single-finger, double-tap on a channel number in 
the left most column in order to display only that channel’s lineup in a 
simple list view.  As for how the app has improved?  Well, now one can 
change the date and time for the displayed listings.  The search feature 
is completely accessible.  The menu buttons are properly labeled, etc. 
There are many, many VoiceOver accessible issues that have finally, 
finally been resolved.


5.
Kathy, while I appreciate the fact that the welcome screen does offer a 
bit of a challenge to VoiceOver users, once navigated, the heart of the 
program is quite accessible.  I realize that saying this does not reduce 
your initial disappointment as we have become so used to accessibility 
being defined by the experience encountered at an app’s launch but there 
are other proverbial yardsticks by which to measure accessibility.  Once 
navigated, you will not encounter the Welcome Screen again and will, I 
think, enjoy the power of this tool.


6.
Richard, I assure you that I recommended this app from the perspective of 
a totally blind user.  Many things are difficult, until they are not. 
Case in point, many new blind iPhone users, whom I have supported over the 
years, felt deceived when they first began using iPhone saying something 
like, “You said this phone was accessible.  People told me that it’s easy 
to use iPhone but it’s not.”  In each and every instance I reply, “I never 
said it would be easy.”  Also in each instance, after a week or so, they 
usually began to realize the power of iPhone.  It is no different with TV 
Guide Mobile.


7.
Mary, I want to make it clear that I stand by my glowing recommendation of 
TV Guide Mobile.  I believe it to be a very powerful tool for any 
VoiceOver user who wants to browse television listings.  Also, on those 
few occasions when I do recommend apps that are more accessible for low 
vision users than those who are totoally blind, I do not neglect to 
include that distinction in my post.


Again, thank you all for contributing to this thread.

Mark

hi Carol,

All music you purchase from the iTunes store is available on any of your 
devices whether you use iTunes Match or not. If you have iTunes Match, the 
music you rip from CD is also available on all your devices. If you stop using 
the service, that music will disappear from iCloud, but you'll still be able to 
load it onto your iPhone and such via iTunes.

When you sign up for iTunes Match, iTunes scans your library to see whether any 
of the music you ripped from CD is available in the iTunes store. If it is, it 
makes copies of that music available to you. It uploads any music that isn't in 
the iTunes store so that you can download it to your devices.

While you are using iTunes Match, you can download the copies of music from the 
iTunes store at any time; these downloads will replace the files on your 
computer. This is great if you ripped the music at a lower bit rate than the 
copies in the iTunes store. If you stop using the service, you can keep using 
the files you downloaded from the iTunes store.

HTH,
Anna

oftentimes it doesn't work well for me. I'm not sure if it's my arthritis in 
my hands and the slight neuropathy, or, if it's just that I'm not that great 
at it.

Mark, while I'm sure you believe sincerely that you recommended this app 
from a totally blind person's perspective, I respectfully disagree.
Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted your original post, but you gave none 
of the VoiceOver work around steps in the original post that you now have 
included in your answers to everyone's comments. Having to do the VoiceOver 
Pass Through gesture and slide left is not an obvious thing to do when 
presented with a screen that only says to swipe left.,
I found a good work around fairly quickly because I am used to having to 
work around apps that are not immediately accessible.
I've been using iOS devices since 2009, and took to them like the perverbial 
duck to water. But, I do not consider an app wonderfully accessible when the 
first thing you have to do is figure out a work around because the stated 
gesture does not work with VoiceOver.

I agree that once you are in the meat of the app, it is excellent.
Richard

Hello Anthony and Everyone who has contributed to this thread.

In an effort to reduce list clutter, I will reply to everyone’s comments 
in this one post, okay?


1.
Anthony, you are quite welcome.

I believe Tom has already answered your question as to how TV Guide Mobile 
differs from NFB Newsline.  I will add that the NFB solution is wonderful 
but I prefer TV Guide Mobile as, for me anyway, it allows for more 
seamless interaction.


2.
Hello David,  I appreciate your frustration and will not attempt to change 
your opinion of TV Guide Mobile.  However, as with many mainstream 
programs that offer a welcome screen, once navigated, the heart of the 
program is quite accessible.  Just so you know, single-finger, 
double-tapping, hold and swiping to the left will move you through the 
welcome screen at the end of which displays the Finish button.  All I can 
say is that I have been using this app for over 4 years and have enjoyed 
many, many hours of television programming as a direct result of having 
this useful and accessible tool.


3.
Jenifer, yes, TV Guide Mobile gives episode summaries including original 
air dates.


4.
Les, at present, I cannot reproduce your problem.  That is not to say that 
there is no problem but only that I cannot reproduce it on my 6 Plus.  As 
a possible workaround, single-finger, double-tap on a channel number in 
the left most column in order to display only that channel’s lineup in a 
simple list view.  As for how the app has improved?  Well, now one can 
change the date and time for the displayed listings.  The search feature 
is completely accessible.  The menu buttons are properly labeled, etc. 
There are many, many VoiceOver accessible issues that have finally, 
finally been resolved.


5.
Kathy, while I appreciate the fact that the welcome screen does offer a 
bit of a challenge to VoiceOver users, once navigated, the heart of the 
program is quite accessible.  I realize that saying this does not reduce 
your initial disappointment as we have become so used to accessibility 
being defined by the experience encountered at an app’s launch but there 
are other proverbial yardsticks by which to measure accessibility.  Once 
navigated, you will not encounter the Welcome Screen again and will, I 
think, enjoy the power of this tool.


6.
Richard, I assure you that I recommended this app from the perspective of 
a totally blind user.  Many things are difficult, until they are not. 
Case in point, many new blind iPhone users, whom I have supported over the 
years, felt deceived when they first began using iPhone saying something 
like, “You said this phone was accessible.  People told me that it’s easy 
to use iPhone but it’s not.”  In each and every instance I reply, “I never 
said it would be easy.”  Also in each instance, after a week or so, they 
usually began to realize the power of iPhone.  It is no different with TV 
Guide Mobile.


7.
Mary, I want to make it clear that I stand by my glowing recommendation of 
TV Guide Mobile.  I believe it to be a very powerful tool for any 
VoiceOver user who wants to browse television listings.  Also, on those 
few occasions when I do recommend apps that are more accessible for low 
vision users than those who are totoally blind, I do not neglect to 
include that distinction in my post.


Again, thank you all for contributing to this thread.

Mark

Re: Best Case for iPhone 6S

2015-11-20 Thread Lois Butterfield
If the case has some give, it will work.  I have a Speck Candy Shell case, and 
it fits both phones.  A harder case I had for my 6 did not fit my 6S.  It 
depends on how it is made.

I would think the Otter Box would fit both, maybe the 6S better.  Perhaps the 
air pocket issue would be resolved with a slightly thicker 6S.

Take care,

Hi all,

I am told that the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are slightly thicker than the 
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The cases, therefore, are not interchangeable. I 
looked into getting an OtterBox Defender for my iPhone 6s Plus, but was steered 
away from it by the representative at my cell phone company because the fit 
would have been tight.

  I'm partial to the Ballistic cases. The size and weight it adds to the phone 
is minimal and the buffer edge it provides around the 
  screen is more than  what a lot of other cases have.
  I don’t'  care for Otterbox or those other cases that turn your phone into a 
mini transformer and make it hard to insert and remove 
  from the case. Getting a phone in and out of a Ballistic case is straight 
forward and doesn't involve x amount of pieces and

Re: Best Case for iPhone 6S

2015-11-20 Thread Jennie Facer
The iPhone 6+ and 6S+ are interchangeable. I like the tech 21 flip case. You 
have to answer the phone with the case open, but then you can close it and talk 
so you don't get nasty grease on the screen. It sells for about $50. I got mine 
at the Verizon Store.

Re: Getting back to the main app store page on an ipad mini

2015-11-20 Thread Regina Alvarado

I need this answer also. There used to be a cancel or back button. A friend 
checked with accessibility, and the only thing they came up with was the scrub 
gesture. However, that gesture is one I have never gotten to work anywhere. Do 
not know if it is just my fingers not being strong enough or if I am doing the 
gesture incorrectly.

Hi Vicky,

 

Are you confusing Windows 10 with iOS 10? As Shawn pointed out, iOS 9.2 
will be next, Apple has already released the fourth public beta a couple of 
days ago and I would guess that it will be publically available within a week 
or two. There may be another beta next week with the final release in the first 
week of December, but it won’t be long now.

iOS 9 will continue until next September, another 10 months or so. Apple 
usually announces major iOS releases in June with first developer beta testing 
and then a bit later public beta testing and the final release in mid September.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Thank you to everyone who answered my question. After several swipe

the lower left of the home key. The phone is now rebooting, so I will hope for

Are people having luck with I.O.S. 10 or should I hold off on that one?

Hello Ed,

The first time you launch the app, there is a welcome screen that is a series 
of screenshots that VoiceOver does not announce.  There are two ways to bypass 
this screen, the simpler of which is to turn off VoiceOver, then single-finger 
drag from right to left about 5 or so times.  After doing this, turn VoiceOver 
back on and explore the screen upon which you will locate the finish button.  
Activate that button to be taken into the app.  You only have to navigate the 
welcome screen, once.  The second way to navigate the welcome screen is to 
single-finger double-tap, hold, and drag from right to left, about 5 or so 
times in order to display the Finish button.

Was this an issue with your cell phone carrier or your regular Internet

deal that offered fast broadband for only $5 more than I paid for a UNIX shell 
at a neighborhood dial-up Internet provider in 1994.  On a recent Sunday night, 
the advertised download speed of 25 MBPS was not happening.  Instead, the speed 
test showed only 8 MBPS.  I guess everyone was watching Net Flicks and YouTube.
My partner spends more time watching YouTube videos on an iPad than I spend

Yeah, I have noticed this too.  I found the picker fields by placing my finger 
on the lower right hand corner of the phone.  Or, perhaps it's in the lower 
middle of the phone screen, just above the home button.  Next time, place your 
finger on the bottom part of the screen after you select the picker, you should 
be able to swipe to your selection after making that area become active.

Hi, folks:

I use Skype on the iPad but when I add callers, if they do not answer, I 
receive a message that says “so and so already on the call” how do I disconnect 
that person and redo it short of restarting the conference? thanks and have a 
great day.
I've been meaning to call Procrastinator's Anonymous, but I keep putting it off.

Re: adding ripped cds to itunes with match enabled

2015-11-20 Thread Brett C.
Larry, I’m only familiar with iTunes on Mac, but  I think the features are the 
same.
Mary, once in a playlist I hit command J. There are two popup buttons, the 
second lets you select what you’ll see in the table. You have to activate the 
popup again after each selection. I view my music as songs in list view.

Re: Which iPhone to get for which carrier

2015-11-20 Thread Kelly Pierce
I believe Apple created one phone for the CDMA carriers and one for
the GSM carriers in the United States for the 6 and 6plus.  For this
year's model of the 6s and 6s plus, the unlocked phone Apple sells
will work with both the CDMA carriers, such as Verizon and Sprint, and
the GSM carriers, such as T-Mobile and AT  some carriers have
changed requirements on what kinds of iPhones are allowed on their
network so check.  I believe it is now possible to buy an unlocked
iPhone separately from Apple and use it on a third party reseller from
Verizon like Page Plus.  The iPhone 6S and 6s Plus supports band 12
for the first time.  This new frequency can penetrate buildings more
easily and its signals travel much farther than other frequencies.
Many will discover that they now have cell service where previously
they had no service.  Also the 6s and 6s Plus supports a new frequency
used by AT  I would strongly urge you to get the 6s or 6s Plus for
the new frequencies and the ability to use both kinds of networking
technologies.

Can you enable icloud view in itunes on the pc?

Subject: Re: adding ripped cds to itunes with match enabled

 

The iTunes match service will analyze the music you add to iTunes. If iTunes 
match can match the song, it gives you a cloud version of the song that can be 
accessed or downloaded from any of your devices. If there is not a match, such 
as a local artist, iTunes match will upload your copy of the song to be 
accessed or downloaded from any device. If you enable the iCloud view in your 
music grid, you’ll be able to know if the song has been matched in the cloud or 
uploaded. I hope this makes sense.

Re: For Those Who May be in the Market for a New Cell Provider in the USA, Sprint Launches LTE+ Service

2015-11-20 Thread Kelly Pierce
Realize that the only iPhone that can use an LTE Plus network
described in the Sprint offer is the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus.  Other
iPhones cannot take advantage of the faster speeds or the extended

> from Android users in 44 of the largest markets in the U.S., and it found
> that in 20 of the 44 markets, users downloading files over 5 MB did it
> fastest on Sprint. The carrier says the new network can reach up to 100
