I agree!  People say they are looking for more games and then reject games when

I am MamaPeach67 on Dice World. The only thing that aggrivates me is people on 
here ask for people to play them and they never accept the games. I do play 5 
out of the 6 games, no pig games please.

Hello everybody,


I had to sign up with a new user name for Dice World, because I could 
not ever get my password reminder from my other account.


Now I have no players, or people I used to play games with. I only play 
Farkle.

But if you play Farkle, and would like to play with me, please search 
for this email address.


icecreamlover1...@gmail.com  


Like I said, I only play Farkle. I'd like to find some friends to play 
with, as I miss the game.


Thank you,


Terri

Subject: Uber Eats Pricing Problem

Last night we had an unpleasant surprise with an Uber Eats order. 
The delivery fee unexpectedly increased from $4.95 to around $20.00. 
Surprisingly, one can get telephone support for Uber Eats, but it 
did not help with this problem. Even though I contacted support 
immediately, it was too late to cancel the order. The representative 
told me there is an upward pointing arrow next to the delivery fee 
shown on the screen. That shows that dynamic pricing is in effect, 
although the exact delivery fee is not shown. I'm not sure that 
arrow is visible using VoiceOver. In case it really is present, do 
watch for it to avoid unpleasant surprises. If it's not, complaints 
are in order. Good luck.

RE: Uber Eats Pricing Problem

2018-03-26 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I am not sure about Uber Eats, but in the regular Uber app it is indicated when 
peak pricing is active and while you don't see how much more a trip is, you do 
see the price and if you sort of know what it usually is the difference is 
quite clear.

That's good to know. Clearly, I missed it. Interestingly, the support person 
with whom I spoke said the exact amount would not appear, just an upward arrow; 
however, this could be another  instance of support not fully understanding the 
app.

Thanks.

Subject: Uber Eats Pricing Problem

Last night we had an unpleasant surprise with an Uber Eats order. The delivery 
fee unexpectedly increased from $4.95 to around $20.00. Surprisingly, one can 
get telephone support for Uber Eats, but it did not help with this problem. 
Even though I contacted support immediately, it was too late to cancel the 
order. The representative told me there is an upward pointing arrow next to the 
delivery fee shown on the screen. That shows that dynamic pricing is in effect, 
although the exact delivery fee is not shown. I'm not sure that arrow is 
visible using VoiceOver. In case it really is present, do watch for it to avoid 
unpleasant surprises. If it's not, complaints are in order. Good luck.

Subject: Join Me In Requesting that VoiceOver Accessibility for Zillow for iOS, 
Be Restored

Hello Everyone,

Zillow is a very excellent real estate buying and home rental service.

As OF THE LATEST RELEASE, VoiceOver accessibility for Zillow, for iOS has
been broken.

While some VoiceOver functionality exists, the ability to single-finger
swipe from right to left, in order to have VoiceOver focus scroll the
screen, as well as the 3-finger screen-scroll gesture, no longer functions
as expected.  

Please join me in requesting that VoiceOver accessibility be restored.  

You may contact Zillow directly by sending an email to:
iphonefeedb...@zillow.com, or by posting a review in the App Store, or by
contacting them on Twitter at, @Zillow.

The following text was taken from my feedback to Zillow.  You may use any or
all of it in your communication with them:

[BEGIN FEEDBACK]:
I am writing to inform you that as of the last several releases of Zillow
for iOS, VoiceOver accessibility has been steadily degrading.  

VoiceOver is Apple's software screen reading solution for the blind and low
vision.

As of this latest release, several VoiceOver gestures such as single-finger
swiping from right-to-left, and the 3-finger screen scroll gesture no longer
function as expected.

As a result, a visually impaired user cannot access the various listing
information for a home.

I fervently request that VoiceOver accessibility be restored to full
functionality as soon as possible.  
[END FEEDBACK]

Thank you all for your support on this.

Hi Jewel,
Here is what I found on the web:

Originally meaning pictograph, the word emoji comes from Japanese e (絵, 
"picture") + moji (文字, "character"). The resemblance to the English words 
emotion and emoticon is purely coincidental.

I'm glad Apple is going to put some accessibility items in the ever
growing emojy category. As stated before, the general populous is not
going to make buying decisions based off of cane emojys, just like
they would not make the buying decisions based off of other emojys. At
least they are recognizing people with disabilities, even if it is in
this small way. I recall not too long ago when emoji's were starting
to be added at all, hearing concern from some blind folk that there
were not any access emoji's. So it's good to see that Apple have
gotten around to it. I still like and will occasionally use the
Braille Badges from the American Printing House; these emojys are much
more than canes and dogs, and are super fun to use, plus they're free.

Kane then a 5 foot Kane is indeed going to seem like it's turning the corner

to turn a corner. I had also experience the same feeling when I use Kane's
that were measured up to
my chin as oppposed to up to my sternum. I find using a 3 foot cane, On the
other hand,  too short
for me and makes me feel like I am pitching forward. I'm not sure how I know
this, but I also
believe that Jewel is 5 feet tall so maybe a 3 foot long Kane would  be the
right size for her!
As for the emoticon, I'm not sure in what context one would care to use one.

RE: Uber Eats Pricing Problem

2018-03-26 Thread Richard Petty
That's good to know. Clearly, I missed it. Interestingly, the support person 
with whom I spoke said the exact amount would not appear, just an upward arrow; 
however, this could be another  instance of support not fully understanding the 
app.

Thanks.

Just as in the regular Uber app "dynamic pricing is indicated and Voiceover

Subject: Uber Eats Pricing Problem

Last night we had an unpleasant surprise with an Uber Eats order. The delivery 
fee unexpectedly increased from $4.95 to around $20.00. Surprisingly, one can 
get telephone support for Uber Eats, but it did not help with this problem. 
Even though I contacted support immediately, it was too late to cancel the 
order. The representative told me there is an upward pointing arrow next to the 
delivery fee shown on the screen. That shows that dynamic pricing is in effect, 
although the exact delivery fee is not shown. I'm not sure that arrow is 
visible using VoiceOver. In case it really is present, do watch for it to avoid 
unpleasant surprises. If it's not, complaints are in order. Good luck.

Richard, I am curious at what point it showed you that the price had gone up to 
$20?   Does the app not show you the final total before you confirm your order? 
 

I am just curious as we were thinking of trying it out and we haven't used it 
before.

They need to improve in Uber eats being able to see the list of available 
cities: it’s annoying that I keep getting emails telling me to check it out, 
not only do I find that it’s not available where I am, but, even though the 
screen says there are 50 pages devoted to the list of available cities, you 
can’t read them!

Join Me In Requesting that VoiceOver Accessibility for Zillow for iOS, Be Restored

2018-03-26 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

Zillow is a very excellent real estate buying and home rental service.

As OF THE LATEST RELEASE, VoiceOver accessibility for Zillow, for iOS has
been broken.

While some VoiceOver functionality exists, the ability to single-finger
swipe from right to left, in order to have VoiceOver focus scroll the
screen, as well as the 3-finger screen-scroll gesture, no longer functions
as expected.  

Please join me in requesting that VoiceOver accessibility be restored.  

You may contact Zillow directly by sending an email to:
iphonefeedb...@zillow.com, or by posting a review in the App Store, or by
contacting them on Twitter at, @Zillow.

The following text was taken from my feedback to Zillow.  You may use any or
all of it in your communication with them:

[BEGIN FEEDBACK]:
I am writing to inform you that as of the last several releases of Zillow
for iOS, VoiceOver accessibility has been steadily degrading.  

VoiceOver is Apple's software screen reading solution for the blind and low
vision.

As of this latest release, several VoiceOver gestures such as single-finger
swiping from right-to-left, and the 3-finger screen scroll gesture no longer
function as expected.

As a result, a visually impaired user cannot access the various listing
information for a home.

I fervently request that VoiceOver accessibility be restored to full
functionality as soon as possible.  
[END FEEDBACK]

Thank you all for your support on this.

Mark

Feel free to ask at the camp fire or on forums about tips. At least the camp

 strength, dex etc, but when I try to go to the campfire, it says I'm not
 connected to the net?
 Is this broken because I do have internet on my phone lol.

 Basically it's a game where you send your character on quests that winn you
 items and skills you need in more advanced quests. It's all rapped in a
 story where you have large and small goals. Love the game and the community
 it created.

Re: A bose Soundwear question

2018-03-26 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
Hi,
I would like to respond to your question with another question. Is it really 
isolating the sound for the listener or do people around you hear what you are 
listening to? I am not sure I’d want people hearing the sound I hear. THis is 
what I like with the bone conduction headphones. Yes, sound quality is not 
great but I’d want awareness of surroundings mostly when I’m out and about.

Thanks for letting me know.

Best,

Ioana

Subject: Re: Apple proposes new emojis for people with disabilities, CNET

I'm glad Apple is going to put some accessibility items in the ever
growing emojy category. As stated before, the general populous is not
going to make buying decisions based off of cane emojys, just like
they would not make the buying decisions based off of other emojys. At
least they are recognizing people with disabilities, even if it is in
this small way. I recall not too long ago when emoji's were starting
to be added at all, hearing concern from some blind folk that there
were not any access emoji's. So it's good to see that Apple have
gotten around to it. I still like and will occasionally use the
Braille Badges from the American Printing House; these emojys are much
more than canes and dogs, and are super fun to use, plus they're free.

Hi 

Not sure about the camp fire bug. I don’t have any issues.

The first chapter took me days more like a week to complete. This should give 
you lots of time to see if you want to buy additional chapters. I love the game 
and have even donated money just because the developer is so good about making 
sure accessibility is optimized.

Happy questing.

Hello everybody,


I had to sign up with a new user name for Dice World, because I could not ever 
get my password reminder from my other account.


Now I have no players, or people I used to play games with. I only play Farkle.

But if you play Farkle, and would like to play with me, please search for this 
email address.


icecreamlover1...@gmail.com  


Like I said, I only play Farkle. I'd like to find some friends to play with, as 
I miss the game.


Thank you,


Terri

RE: Apple proposes new emojis for people with disabilities, CNET

2018-03-26 Thread Cristóbal
I mean I guess . . . I really can't get all worked up about this. I think I'd 
be more peeved if they went with the hard-core black aviator sunglasses looking 
up at the sky with the  scrunched up blind person face emoji look.
I suppose it's constructive to point out the strap around the wrist thing, but 
I don't think people actually seriously take emojis as accurate 
representations. And if they do . . . then they've probably got other issues 
going on.

You should ask ACB this question, not me. ACB leadership approved this 
controversial design. The inclusion of the blind emoji depends whether Apple 
stands behind its submission or withdraws it and resubmits new emoji. Blind 
people could also oppose the inclusion of some of the emoji with the standards 
organization if Apple refuses to withdraw the emoji. If the standards board 
rejects the proposal, the timeframe is completely uncertain.

I love RPG type games, but not sure about having to pay for future chapters
to advance the storyline.
Thus far, most of the information makes sense, you have your stats such as

items and skills you need in more advanced quests. It's all rapped in a
story where you have large and small goals. Love the game and the community
it created.

RE: question about apple smart battery case

If it’s the original Apple battery case you may or may not find it on Amazon, 
but you will definitely find it in the Apple Store either online or at one of 
the Vancouver locations like Richmond Centre, Oakridge or Pacific Centre.

When it’s all charged up, you’ll get a message “100 percent on A C Power.  The 
phone charges first, then the case.  If you just get the message 100 percent, 
the case is still charging.

As to the case, it’s kind of a rubbery substance.  The battery is located in 
the rear of the phone, and there’s kind of a bulge where the battery is.  Not 
bad though.  I’ve got my case on the 8 and I’ve been real happy with it.  I 
charge the phone every other day, because that’s how long it takes generally to 
start to discharge the phone itself.  Others may differ though.

I have an iphone 7 with the accompanying apple smart battery case. I like it 
fine but I have noticed something. When I first got it, when I booted up the 
phone or woke it up, I would get the remaining charge in the smart case as well 
as the phone. An IOS update or two ago, that changed and now all I get is the 
words “smart battery case” and the phone charge and no info on the case. Has a 
setting changed that I missed?

Galileo will consist of 24 satellites and they may not have launched as many 
yet because completion of Galileo is not until 2020, another 2 or tow and a 
half years from now. Galileo is also not a world-wide system as it provides

When it’s all charged up, you’ll get a message “100 percent on A C Power.  The 
phone charges first, then the case.  If you just get the message 100 percent, 
the case is still charging.

 

As to the case, it’s kind of a rubbery substance.  The battery is located in 
the rear of the phone, and there’s kind of a bulge where the battery is.  Not 
bad though.  I’ve got my case on the 8 and I’ve been real happy with it.  I 
charge the phone every other day, because that’s how long it takes generally to 
start to discharge the phone itself.  Others may differ though.

Hi. I’ve been meaning to post this for some time so here goes.

I have an iphone 7 with the accompanying apple smart battery case. I like it 
fine but I have noticed something. When I first got it, when I booted up the 
phone or woke it up, I would get the remaining charge in the smart case as well 
as the phone. An IOS update or two ago, that changed and now all I get is the 
words “smart battery case” and the phone charge and no info on the case. Has a 
setting changed that I missed?

RE: Translator: free for the day

2018-03-26 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I guess I missed this yesterday, but then I do have Google Translate which also 
works OK and in any case I find none of these apps can be relied upon for 
translating longer passages of text with complex sentences. Anyhow, when I just 
checked it out it said it was $9.99, I think she said in her email it was 
normally $40. Also, one other thing I noticed is that this app hasn't been 
updated in over a year, a bit strange especially for a relatively expensive 
paid app.

Last night we had an unpleasant surprise with an Uber Eats order. The delivery 
fee unexpectedly increased from $4.95 to around $20.00. Surprisingly, one can 
get telephone support for Uber Eats, but it did not help with this problem. 
Even though I contacted support immediately, it was too late to cancel the 
order. The representative told me there is an upward pointing arrow next to the 
delivery fee shown on the screen. That shows that dynamic pricing is in effect, 
although the exact delivery fee is not shown. I'm not sure that arrow is 
visible using VoiceOver. In case it really is present, do watch for it to avoid 
unpleasant surprises. If it's not, complaints are in order. Good luck.

Re: Apple proposes new emojis for people with disabilities, CNET

2018-03-26 Thread Kelly Pierce
The issue is the perception the public has about blind people and
their independence. It is not about cane purchasing decisions. Apple
and the ACB are advancing the notion that short canes to the stomach
are normal and expected along with a cord wrapped tightly around a
blind person’s wrist. This is not how most blind people travel,
particularly the most independent and confident travelers. I
completely disagree with the proposition that inaccurate depictions of
blind people are better than none at all. Emoji’s are just one means
of how the public can change its belief on what it means to be blind.

Arlene,
Our T-Mobile service was pretty good up until about a year ago. At
that point, even though I live and work in a city and populated area,
call quality and data service went way down. If my wife called me or I
called her, then one person could not hear the other. This was the
case whether I called her from work or when at home. T-Mobile may have
good coverage in some areas, but compare it to a larger carrier like
AT and there's no contest. AT blankets the area I am in, and much
of the area across the state of Texas, and much of the rest of the US,
so it was an easy decision. I had been with AT for a long time but
thought I'd switch to T-Mobile for something different. I learned my
lesson and am paying reasonable rates with AT

Re: Help with One Password

2018-03-26 Thread Wayne Merritt
In recent versions of 1Password, when looking at a list of passwords
or other information, if I want to reveal all of the information there
is usually a show details button that appears after you double tap on
the account or password that you want to see. When I double tap the
show details button, then I am able to view all information associated
with an entry.

 Hi Kim,

 I am guessing that you are working with 1password on iOS? I would
 suggest closing it out in the app switcher and reopening it to see if
 the problem clears up. You also might restart your iOS device and see if
 that helps. It is all working normally for me.

Re: Apple proposes new emojis for people with disabilities, CNET

2018-03-26 Thread Wayne Merritt
I'm glad Apple is going to put some accessibility items in the ever
growing emojy category. As stated before, the general populous is not
going to make buying decisions based off of cane emojys, just like
they would not make the buying decisions based off of other emojys. At
least they are recognizing people with disabilities, even if it is in
this small way. I recall not too long ago when emoji's were starting
to be added at all, hearing concern from some blind folk that there
were not any access emoji's. So it's good to see that Apple have
gotten around to it. I still like and will occasionally use the
Braille Badges from the American Printing House; these emojys are much
more than canes and dogs, and are super fun to use, plus they're free.

Re: accessibility/accessible category in app store

2018-03-26 Thread Michael Feir
The Applevis site is still your best choice for finding out about
accessible apps. There's really no way for you to get the app store to
limit search results to accessible apps. However, there are curated
collections of accessible apps. One of these is specific to apps which
support VoiceOver. The other includes apps with support for other
accessibility features.

To get to these curated collections, go into the app store and double-tap
on the "apps" tab along the bottom. Once you've in the "apps" area, you
need to find the "quick links" heading. The quickest way to to this is by
touching the bottom left tab but not double-tapping it. Next, flick left
until you come across the "accessible apps" or "apps supporting VoiceOver"
links. Alternatively, you can start from the top of the screen and turn
your rotor to headings. Flick down through the headings until you come to
"quick links". Next, flick right though these links until you come to the
accessibble apps or apps supporting VoiceOver collections. Double-tap on
the one you want. You can then read a short blurb at the top and go through
a curated list of apps which are known to be accessible. Just be aware that
this is nowhere near a complete list. I haven't seen the list updated much
at all. Like I said, a visit to the Applevis site is a much better and more
complete list of accessible apps. I've asked Apple to add the ability to
filter apps for accessibility but have never received an answer. Hope that
helps.

Re: iPhone input question

I would ask Apple directly.
My guess is, and it is only a guess, you would need some kind of attenuated 
cable unless you were connecting to an audio out jack as opposed to an earphone 
jack.
But, I would never try that without asking Apple.

Uber Eats Pricing Problem

2018-03-26 Thread Richard Petty
Last night we had an unpleasant surprise with an Uber Eats order. The delivery 
fee unexpectedly increased from $4.95 to around $20.00. Surprisingly, one can 
get telephone support for Uber Eats, but it did not help with this problem. 
Even though I contacted support immediately, it was too late to cancel the 
order. The representative told me there is an upward pointing arrow next to the 
delivery fee shown on the screen. That shows that dynamic pricing is in effect, 
although the exact delivery fee is not shown. I'm not sure that arrow is 
visible using VoiceOver. In case it really is present, do watch for it to avoid 
unpleasant surprises. If it's not, complaints are in order. Good luck.

RE: question about apple smart battery case

2018-03-26 Thread Donald Moore
When it’s all charged up, you’ll get a message “100 percent on A C Power.  The 
phone charges first, then the case.  If you just get the message 100 percent, 
the case is still charging.
 
As to the case, it’s kind of a rubbery substance.  The battery is located in 
the rear of the phone, and there’s kind of a bulge where the battery is.  Not 
bad though.  I’ve got my case on the 8 and I’ve been real happy with it.  I 
charge the phone every other day, because that’s how long it takes generally to 
start to discharge the phone itself.  Others may differ though.

Re: iPhone input question

2018-03-26 Thread Malcolm Parfitt
Hello,


As far as I am aware, the cable you refer to is an output connection only.  It 
cannot be used as an input.

Out of interest, what microphone do you use?

Thanks.

iPhone input question

2018-03-26 Thread Fanus
Hello list
I use an external stereo mic with my iPhone which prooves that the lightning 
port is also an input port. Now I am curious to know if one would be able to 
use that short connector cable which comes with the iPhone 7 to record from an 
external source. I am very tempted to test this but I am a bit worried that I 
could damage the iPhone. Does any of the experts have an opinion on this 
possibility?
Regards
Fanus

Re: Land of Livia

I do. I like it, but if quests take too long, I often forget about them and not 
play for a few days.
