That is pretty cool about Canada, wish we had it together like that
here. I still can't enjoy apple pay in most places.

Re: UBER and payments

[Janet Bell]

Morning all on the subject of apple pay and paying with a debit card using your 
iPhone please can someone tell me how you go about putting the details of your 
card on your iPhone so that if you buy something that is more than you are 
allowed on applepay you can use your debit card without having to get someone 
to tell you the number.  if this is possible I would love to know

Subject: RE: UBER and payments

It’s also a problem of the financial and payment processor system in general.

Here in Canada we only got Apple Pay over a year after it was announced and 
almost immediately you could pay virtually everywhere with it. This is mostly 
because our banks/card processors moved to chip cards years ago, you don’t sign 
any more but just as with a debit card from your bank you insert the card into 
the reader/terminal/PinPad and enter a 4-digit PIN. The next step was 
contactless payments, usually if the transaction is less than $100 all you have 
to do is tap your card to the terminal/PinPad, no need to enter a PIN or sign 
and even though anybody who would steel your card could use it this way you are 
protected as long as you report it stolen.

Most merchants already had contactless terminals/PinPads When Apple Pay finally 
came and in the beginning it was more of an issue whether your bank/credit card 
already supported it. For a few months it was only America Express, then some 
of the major banks/card processors signed on and by now almost all do. There 
are a few very small stores who still don’t have contactless terminals and here 
you still have to insert your card and enter your PIN, but it’s very rare, I 
doubt it’s more than 5% of all merchants, certainly not more than 10%.

Hi Mike,

 

  1.. You setup the Wallet app so that your credit card is used to fund 
ApplePay 
  2.. 2) You go into Uber, choose “Menu”, choose the “Payment” button, and then 
set ApplePay as your Uber payment  method.  To be sure you’ve got this right, 
when you’re done, you may want to remove your credit card from Uber, and then 
if it works it will have to be using ApplePay and they won’t have your credit 
card number.
Every time I’m at a cash register in any store I always ask them if they take 
ApplePay, and if they say no, I ask them to please tell the manager that a 
customer was asking for it, and I often explain to them how much easier it can 
be for some people than searching for the correct card etc (to hopefully 
convince the manager this is a real advantage for shopping customers).

 

I am surprised how little ApplePay is being used in Tallahassee (which is a 
small city I realize).  Some of the trouble is merchants like CVS and Walmart 
who want to setup their own pay systems as a competitor to ApplePay, and so 
will  not accept ApplePay.

 

 

Hth,

  Recently, my card got hacked and I have had to put a new card into the UBER 
app.

  However, when I try to schedule a ride, it shows that my method of payment is

  How can I change that to my visa card?

  I went into the payment screen, but found no way to change the default method

  Any assistance would be much appreciated.

The basic commands have not changed. If you want to deal with music press 
control 1.

Tones control 7
apps control 8

the rest have more to do with your tabbing around
Also control i will allow you to change information about a particular

Hello everyone,


Does anyone have a tutorial on using iTunes, and the latest version of

If nobody has such a thing, do you all know where I might find something?

I could really use the help, please. I have the latest version of NVDA,
windows 7, and I think I am 1 update behind, when it comes to iTunes. I
use a laptop with a full-sized keyboard, including a number pad. If
knowing this makes a difference, or is helpful?

RE: The new NLS website is currently scheduled to go live this coming Sunday, July 9th.

This is very useful information, Rich.

Subject: The new NLS website is currently scheduled to go live this coming 
Sunday, July 9th.


I received this on another list and thought many here would appreciate the 
information.

SUBJECT : New website launch
 
The new NLS website is currently scheduled to go live at the longstanding NLS 
URL of www.loc.gov/nls
this coming Sunday, July 9th.  There will be no change to the URL for the 
homepage.  Your bookmarks to the longstanding NLS URL for the homepage will 
still function correctly and take you to the new site.  The longstanding URL 
for BARD login will also remain exactly the same.  No changes have been made to 
BARD or the NLS catalog.  The site has also undergone repeated accessibility 
and screen reader testing here at NLS and out in the field.
 
Please be aware of the following issues and activities during the switchover 
period of three days, from Sunday the 9th through Tuesday the 11th.
 
1.  The old website-the one we're all familiar with-will continue to exist 
through October (at least) and our patrons can continue to use it while they 
gradually become familiar with the new site.
Its URL, however, will change: the old site will no longer be at 
www.loc.gov/nls, but rather at 
www.loc.gov/nlsold.  There will be a prominent link 
on the homepage of the new website-on the left-hand side, under the box of 
"Quick Links"-so that patrons can jump back to the homepage of the old website 
if they wish to.
If they are on the old site, there will be an equally prominent link so they 
can jump to the new site.
 
2.  On the new website, the "Search" field at the right top edge will be 
optimized only once the switch of URLs is made on Sunday and Monday.  For that 
reason, it may be a couple days before it is fully functioning.  Patrons can 
use built-in navigation on the new site to find what they are looking for 
during this brief period.  We appreciate your patience during the time required 
for the "Search" to become fully optimized for searching the new site.
 
3.  During the same three-day period, for the most visited areas of our 
website, we will be embedding new internal URLs and redirected URLs so that 
patrons can easily find what they are looking for.  Again, we appreciate your 
patience as this process is completed.
 
4.  We will be grateful for your feedback about any issues you encounter, or 
suggestions you can make.  Please send them to 
d...@loc.gov and ms...@loc.gov.  We 
will log and prioritize those changes we cannot make immediately so that we can 
iterate on them continuously in the weeks to come.
 
For more information contact:
David Pelizzari d...@loc.gov

Re: Question About OoTunes App

[Evan Reese]

Thanks Flor,
I guess I was hoping the station info might be updated more frequently for the 
iOS app than for the Victor Stream.
And you’re right, the Digitally Imported stations will not play on the Stream, 
(There’s an accessible Digitally Imported app to play those by the way.) but 
it’s not limited to those. A majority of stations, quite a large majority in 
fact, in genres such as trance and techno will not play on the Stream at all.
If you think it may not be any different on the iOS app than on the Victor 
Stream, then it wouldn’t be worth the $4.99 for sure.
I’m glad to hear that he responds to messages, but it’s quite a lot of stations 
that aren’t working.
Thanks much.

RE: UBER and payments

[Sieghard Weitzel]

It’s also a problem of the financial and payment processor system in general.
Here in Canada we only got Apple Pay over a year after it was announced and 
almost immediately you could pay virtually everywhere with it. This is mostly 
because our banks/card processors moved to chip cards years ago, you don’t sign 
any more but just as with a debit card from your bank you insert the card into 
the reader/terminal/PinPad and enter a 4-digit PIN. The next step was 
contactless payments, usually if the transaction is less than $100 all you have 
to do is tap your card to the terminal/PinPad, no need to enter a PIN or sign 
and even though anybody who would steel your card could use it this way you are 
protected as long as you report it stolen.
Most merchants already had contactless terminals/PinPads When Apple Pay finally 
came and in the beginning it was more of an issue whether your bank/credit card 
already supported it. For a few months it was only America Express, then some 
of the major banks/card processors signed on and by now almost all do. There 
are a few very small stores who still don’t have contactless terminals and here 
you still have to insert your card and enter your PIN, but it’s very rare, I 
doubt it’s more than 5% of all merchants, certainly not more than 10%.

Sieghard

set ApplePay as your Uber payment  method.  To be sure you’ve got this right, 
when you’re done, you may want to remove your credit card from Uber, and then 
if it works it will have to be using ApplePay and they won’t have your credit 
card number.
Every time I’m at a cash register in any store I always ask them if they take 
ApplePay, and if they say no, I ask them to please tell the manager that a 
customer was asking for it, and I often explain to them how much easier it can 
be for some people than searching for the correct card etc (to hopefully 
convince the manager this is a real advantage for shopping customers).

I am surprised how little ApplePay is being used in Tallahassee (which is a 
small city I realize).  Some of the trouble is merchants like CVS and Walmart 
who want to setup their own pay systems as a competitor to ApplePay, and so 
will  not accept ApplePay.

Good evening all,

Recently, my card got hacked and I have had to put a new card into the UBER app.
However, when I try to schedule a ride, it shows that my method of payment is 
now apple pay.
How can I change that to my visa card?
I went into the payment screen, but found no way to change the default method 
from apple pay to my visa card.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Wanted, tutorial for using iTunes with NVDA

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,


Does anyone have a tutorial on using iTunes, and the latest version of NVDA?

If nobody has such a thing, do you all know where I might find something?

I could really use the help, please. I have the latest version of NVDA, 
windows 7, and I think I am 1 update behind, when it comes to iTunes. I 
use a laptop with a full-sized keyboard, including a number pad. If 
knowing this makes a difference, or is helpful?


Thank you,


Terri

Question About OoTunes App

[Evan Reese]

Hey Guys,
I have a Second Generation stream which I like very much overall. The problem 
I’m having is that whenever I do a search for stations on it, especially for 
non-mainstream genres in electronic music for example, I get plenty of results 
but most of the stations frustratingly fail to start.
I have an iPad Mini 4, and I was wondering if the app for OoTunes is more 
reliable on that.
Anyone using it? Do the stations it shows in search results actually play most 
of the time, or even all the time? If so, then it would be worth the $4.99 they 
want for it.
Thanks for any feedback.
Evan

now apple pay.

How can I change that to my visa card?

I went into the payment screen, but found no way to change the default method 
from apple pay to my visa card.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

The app is called My Way Lite from the Swiss Federation of the blind.
It provides breadcrumb  navigation and directs the blind end user
through a path not a particular endpoint.  it is free.

RE: which GPS app should i buy?

[Chip Orange]

Hi Sandra,

I think the accuracy for consumers changes from 2 meters for gps to 1 meter for 
Galileo; nice, but not a critical difference for the average consumer.  It is 
expected to perhaps be more important for automation, but then GPS is also 
being upgraded to the same level of accuracy.

As for phones, the Samsung Galaxy 8 is the only one I could find which has 
Galileo compatibility, but I too read that a consumer won't be able to use 
Galileo for several years yet.

hi Andreya,
While you are correct, from everything I have read, the accuracy is still much 
greater than the other alternatives. I mean, as we speak, now!

I believe it runs on the Sanson galaxy, but I'm open to correction here, there 
might not even be such a thing as a Sampson galaxy, I don't know. however, this 
might be the very thing that will push me onto the android platform.

 Another consideration is where in the world you are located.  You do not
 say
 and this is an important consideration for anyone asking for app
 recommendations. Nearby Explorer is only currently available in North
 America while the other two have maps for other parts of the world.  Also,
 you do not say if you need the app in a language other than English.
 Nearby
 explorer supports only English while Blind Square supports more than 20
 languages.  English though is an international language spoken throughout
 the world by educated peple.

RE: Another question about gps apps

[Chip Orange]

I really like Near-by Explorer, but I don’t think it would be all that helpful 
in traversing a specific route which isn’t based on named roads (that is, I 
don’t think it can record “routes”).  Just like Blind Square, it could only 
record the end of the route and aim you at it.  Either of these could also 
allow you to record way points along your route, but you would have to remember 
to switch to the correct  next waypoint each time you arrived at one.  I 
believe Near-by Explorer is better at getting you to a point in that it allows 
you to use your phone as a “pointer”, and it will indicate to you when you have 
the end of your phone pointed directly at the desired point.

 

  I think Seeing Eye can record a route of waypoints  however.

 

 

Hth,

 

Chip

Blind Square is not strictly speaking a GPS app. It does not do turn-by-turn 
directions.

But, once you find the point of interest you want, Blind Square can launch 
Google maps, Apple Maps, or several paid GPS apps.

If all you want is the turn-by-turn directions, Google Maps does a fine job.

RE: Another question about gps apps

[Richard Turner]

Presuming the route from their apartment to the mailbox is outside, BlindSquare 
could mark the mailbox as a place, then give information about distance and 
direction if that was tracking was turned on.  It would say things like, 
Mailbox 800 feet at 10 o’clock.
Seeing Eye GPS recently added waypoints.  I have not tried them, but I gather 
if you walk a route it will mark your turns and you could make the mailbox a 
favorite.

I cannot remember the name of the app that is primarily designed to track the 
path you walk and allow you to retrace it.  Is it MyWay classic?

There are probably others.

Re: Tune in radio

[Robert Doc Wright]

does anyone know how to contact the developers of tuneIn radio? I have sent an 
email from both the app and their web site with no response. I'm trying to let 
them know that their broadcastor wizard does not work. I filled in all of the 
information and clicked on "sign me up" and the page never changes.

  Hello folks,

   

  For the past couple of days, Tune in radio keeps giving me an error, but it 
doesn't say what the error is.

  It isn't allowing me to play anything.

  Now, when I click onto car mode, it only allows me to play my favorites, but 
that's it.

  I can't search for new stations, books, nothing.

  I have a yearly subscription that hasn't even begun to run out. It doesn't 
end until next April.

  Any suggestions as to why I am getting this error?

  Thanks in advance.

  Blind Square is not strictly speaking a GPS app. It does not do turn-by-turn 
directions.
  But, once you find the point of interest you want, Blind Square can launch 
Google maps, Apple Maps, or several paid GPS apps.
  If all you want is the turn-by-turn directions, Google Maps does a fine job.

Hi all, so here is a question, I know with google maps you can get 
directions say from your place to a store or something like that.  Can you do 
the same with a GPS app like blindsquare? Say can you get directions from my 
house to a point of interest? Is there a GPS app that can do something like 
that? 



Thanks for any tips you can give.
