iPhone 12's MagSafe is the sleeper feature that's a bigger deal than you think, 
cNet News
Commentary: The fast-charging feature that snaps into place opens up the 
possibility for an array of wild new attachments.

The MagSafe is one of the quietly coolest features on the new iPhone 12. 

Apple's unveiling of the iPhone 12 family fittingly shined a spotlight on 5G
-- not a surprise given the amount of hype and investment dollars that have 
been poured into the next-generation wireless technology. While 5G continues to 
mature into the technological foundation for countless innovations, however, 
it's the low-profile MagSafe feature that may offer consumers the most 
immediate impact. 

It's almost sacrilege for me to write that 5G still needs to time to develop. 
After all, I've been covering the potentially game-changing nature of 5G since 
2015, when I first wrote about Verizon's intention to field-test the super-fast 
cellular technology. But the truth is that initial deployments don't represent 
huge boosts in speed.

MagSafe, on the other hand, offers some tangible benefits regardless of where 
you live or whether you're near the right cell tower. MagSafe charges faster 
than previous iPhones, bringing it on par with the quick charge that Android 
phones have long enjoyed. And, as dumb as this sounds, there's something cool 
about watching your phone snap into place, visual confirmation that you didn't 
fumble the placement of your device. 

"There's no more guessing where the sweet spot is," said Ramon Llamas, an 
analyst with IDC. 
MagSafe has its own long-term potential. The magnetic pins on the back of the 
phone harken back to other attempts to push an ecosystem of attachments, from 
Motorola's Moto Mods to the Essential Phone PH-1's modular camera.
Neither of those companies moved enough phones -- the Essential, in particular, 
was an outright flop -- to really interest many accessory makers to take risks 
on bold ideas. Most of the time, we got extra battery packs. 

Apple's scale changes everything. 
Paving the way
Apple's enormous reach -- Strategy Analytics estimates it will sell 180 million 
units next year -- means a potentially huge market for anyone looking to build 
MagSafe accessories. The opportunity is particularly rich for anyone looking at 
attachments beyond the basic wireless charging stand.
Think game controllers, camera grips, selfie sticks and, yes, wireless charging 
battery packs that could change the way we hold or interact with an iPhone. 

"We can't wait to see the innovative way that others will use MagSafe, creating 
a robust and ever expanding ecosystem," Deniz Teoman, vice president of 
hardware systems engineering at Apple, said in the Apple presentation on 
Tuesday.

That isn't hyperbole. Apple has a way of popularizing and legitimizing tech 
trends, from mobile payments to wireless charging. Where Motorola and Essential 
fell short, Apple could popularize the notion of magnetic attachments. 

Apple itself filed a patent for a folio case with additional power supply and 
the ability to charge AirPods, according to Patently Apple. While those patents 
don't always yield products in the real world, they're an indication of where 
the company may go in the future. 

Phone accessory maker Belkin , meanwhile, has already unveiled two MagSafe 
accessories, a charging stand that can handle an iPhone 12, Apple Watch and 
Apple Airpods, along with a more conventional car mount. Steve Malony, senior 
vice president of Belkin, said the initial products were more "bread and 
butter" when compared to future accessories on the roadmap. 

"Some of the ideas that we see come across our desk are pretty wild," he 
teased. "It's going to be fun to take those ideas and put them in play." 

Modular dreams
MagSafe feels like a spiritual successor to Google's Project Ara, a modular 
phone that used magnets to attach smaller components to the handset, allowing 
you to build it up like you were assembling something out of Legos.


Modular was hyped as a potential breakthrough innovation in smartphones. LG 
tried its hand with its G5 phone, which allowed you to swap out the bottom of 
the device for different attachments like grips and hi-fi speakers. The trend 
died off as quickly as it rose, with Google putting the project on hold, then 
quietly scrapping it. The G5 was such a flop that LG followed up
with a far more conventional phone the next year.   

"The bigger issue is that fully modular designs are more appealing to engineers 
than to consumers," said Avi Greengart, an analyst at

Re: Labeling Photos

2020-10-16 Thread Julian
Hi Diane,

I see that dictation slightly messed up the instructions I attempted to give 
you earlier. What you have to do is put focus on the item you want to relabel, 
use two fingers to double tap and hold until the label element option pops up. 
Now you can simply use the on screen keyboard to type in the name that you wish 
to give that element and save it and that should work.

Interestingly enough, apple announced a new iPad Air last month that will have 
touch ID built into the power button. I was really hoping they were going to do 
the same with at least one of the new iPhone 12 models.

I believe that people would like to have touch ID so that they can open their 
phone easier when they have to wear a mask. We all need to remember COVID-19 is 
still out there in all of us probably have to wear masks when we’re out and 
about. Face ID will not work very well when you have to wear a mask.

Yeah I’ve still got the ac adapter and cable in the box for my iphone 11 pro

I just use the lightening cable that I have from my iPod touch or earlier 
iPhone versions.

That is exactly right, the little wall adapter and charging cable never come 
out of the box any more when I get a new iPhone. I do use the headset, but if 
they don't include one any more then Oh well, it's not a big deal, I like the 
Apple wired Earpods and usually have to get a new one at some point during the 
lifecycle of my current phone. As for are they kidding when they say that they 
are reducing their carbon footprint, I don't think so, these things might be 
small, but when you consider how many tens of Billions of these are being 
produced by Apple, Samsung, Google and all the other companies this is no small 
matter. I would be very surprised if Samsung and other wouldn't follow suit and 
verysoon their phones will ship without a charger also.

I am with you on 5G, Les and Alan. I think it’s a bunch of height, especially 
Verizon and their MM wave which is vanishingly difficult to actually connect

AT are giving a little subsidy on the iPhone. They must be desperate. I think 
the SE2 could be very compelling. That’s especially if you like a home button.

suggestions? One friend says that hers is quite fickle but I don’t actually 
know what her whole set up is like. Plus if there’s anything I need to do that 
would require  site and is not accessible through other means, that would be a 
drag, At least once it’s been set up. If I need help with that that shouldn’t 
be too too difficult to get.
Thanks.

Try a two finger double tap and hold.
That should open an edit box.
Type the name and find the done or save button and double tap.

RE: But All I Wanted was Touch ID

2020-10-16 Thread chaltain
I'm pretty sure getting touch ID back onto an iPhone which doesn't currently 
support it will require a new device. I'd assume this would even be true if you 
had an under the screen finger print sensor.

At the time I got my doorbell, which was about three years ago, you needed an

I have a ring 2 doorbell.  After you get the notification on your phone, you 
have to double tap the notification to open the ring app.  This takes two or 
three seconds.  If you want to talk to the person at the door, you have to find 
the talk button, which voice over does not announce by swiping.  You have to 
know where it is, which is in the upper left part of the screen.  Voice over 
will announce it when you slide your finger over it.  Then you have to double 
tap the talk button.  These steps take a bit of time, so not immediately

To make things faster, if you have an Amazon Echo,, you can just wake it up and

quickist way to get to talk, if you are at home.

Re: Review iPhone 12 series??

2020-10-16 Thread Marie N.
I often go for the newest phones and last year I got an 11 Pro. I absolutely 
think it is the best IPhone I have used. I am somewhat disappointed in the 
new phones and see nothing that temps me to plunk down the amount they have 
put on these and especially when not including the headsets or the charging 
items. Not that the silly charging block they have continued to use is a big 
loss but the headsets are in my opinion.

I will be sticking with the SE and the 11 Pro for now.

Subject: RE: Review iPhone 12 series??

Hi Les,

Probably a wise choice not to pay top Dollar to get the iPhone 12, I think 
anybody who has anything from a 10 up is wasting their money. One thing, 
however, if I were to consider an upgrade I would certainly look at last 
year's iPhone 11 instead of the XR from 2 years ago. My wife and I hadn't 
planned to upgrade either this year and keep our iPhone 8 which we got 2 
years ago. However, we had 64 Gb models and while I only use about half of 
that space, my wife likes to keep lots of photos and videos on her phone and 
hers was full. Then our provider here in Canada came out with a pretty good 
deal, I could get an iPhone 11 64 Gb for $33/month over 2 years with $0 up 
front, that is $792 Canadian which works out to less than $600 US, not a 
super deal, but also not too bad so we went for it. Unfortunately they only 
offered the 11 with 64 Gb and since my wife likes smaller phones anyways we 
went with an iPhone 11 Pro for her with 256 Gb storage which cost the same 
$33 a month over 2 years + a downpayment of a few hundred Bucks, can't 
remember exactly how much, but again in the end a few hundred cheaper than 
if we had bought one outright. It seems that there is only a $100 or so 
difference between the XR and 11 and for that I think the 11 is a better 
choice, if you do want to sell it or trade it in in 2 or 3 years you 
probably make that extra $100 back in resale value.

Hi Mary, Alan and Interested Others,
Well, Verizon will not take advantage of us. My wife and I will be getting 
iPhone 10R models. I know I can learn to use Face ID, and now is a good time 
to learn. I figure it will be a long time before we see 5G in our area. If I 
am mistaken and it happens within two years or so, we can upgrade if we 
wish. In the meantime, with the money we will save, my wife can upgrade her 
iPad if she wishes to do so. I appreciate all of the discussion on various 
iPhome models. It really helped me make a decision for myself and the 
recommendation I offered my wife.

I am with you on 5G, Les and Alan. I think it’s a bunch of height, 
especially Verizon and their MM wave which is vanishingly difficult to 
actually connect to. So they’re ripping you off yet again. It’s interesting 
that both they and AT are giving a little subsidy on the iPhone. They must 
be desperate. I think the SE2 could be very compelling. That’s especially if 
you like a home button.

Hi Alan,
I am also with you and Richard. I will share my experience in the hopes it 
will help others. I have been a Verizon customer for many years. As a 
result, I am on a Loyalty Plan for individuals 55 and older. I was 
seriously considering the iPhone 12 Mini and had a lengthy conversation 
with a Verizon rep. Then I asked about how this would affect our plan. I 
learned that if I purchased a 5G capable phone, I would have to switch to 
a 5g plan. Our bill would go up by $54 per month. It gets worse. I live in 
a town which does not have 5G yet. No way to tell when that might come 
here. So I would be paying an extra $54 per month for a service I cannot 
use. Guess what I'm doing? I'm now looking at either the SEor the iPhone 
11 pro. I would welcome any comments pro or con about either phone. For 
me, 5G is out. Even if it were available, I don't think it's worth an 
extra $54 per month. Now, this could change, but it does not matter to me 
at this point.

My guess is the speakers on the 11 Pro Max are better and perhaps louder 
than the 11, simply because the phone is bigger and there's more separation 
between left and right, if the phone is held sideways that is. The speakers 
might sound better than those on the 11 or 11 Pro, not sure on that since I 
haven't heard them to compare. I've been using YouTube to look up things 
like this. Though audio from a video recording can be tricky and hard to 
judge depending on how the person has their mike positioned, it is an 
option.

Re: Considering a Mac book air

2020-10-16 Thread Daniel MacDonald
Hello Jenn,

These days, Macs come with sixteen GB RAM as a base model. Since you are going 
with a MacBookAir, you’ll have the traditional function keys. Previous models 
had the Butterfly Keyboard, which had a high failer rate. Apple finally went 
back to the Sizerswitch design, and they hopefully will never try a qwerty 
keyboard redesign again. One advancement in the Airs is Touch ID. It’s so easy 
logging into them, and Apple Pay for Web is also supported. I use the Air mom 
has for occasional work she needs done. She’s got the 2019 Air. I personally 
find the Butterfly Keyboard (on 2016-2019 Macs hard on my wrists, as I have 
cerebral Palsy. So get a 2020 MacBookAir and you’ll be good to go.
Daniel

Re: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

2020-10-16 Thread Wayne Merritt
For me, Face ID is pretty reliable and easy. I don't get perfect scans
every time, but it's no big deal for me to enter my pass code since i
use Braille Screen Input, or touch the numbers on the keypad. I won't
argue that Touch ID is perhaps quicker, but Face ID is not as bad as
many think. The times when I don't get good scans are usually
overnight when I wear my sleep mask, or when my phone is angled wrong
or I am not looking directly at it. It does get frustrating to enter
the pass code every so often, but again, not a deal breaker. Also, I
can use Face ID when my fingers are not clean, which is harder to do
with Touch ID. The hardest thing for me about Face ID is initially
setting it up on my own. I have no issues with scanning my head to
enter my face, but I do have issues with positioning the phone. Once I
get help to position the phone, getting my face entered is pretty
easy.
I also find the newer VoiceOver gestures pretty reliable. NO, they
don't work every time for me, but usually they don't work when I try
to slide my finger too fast. When I slow down, I can get to work every
time.
To each their own though.

Best,
Wayne Merritt

Re: Considering a Mac book air

Hello,

Hope this message finds you all well.
I have a Mac and I have used it for several years now.  I have not used a 
Windows PC since 2010, so, I have no idea about the recent advancements  of the 
jaws screen reader Because the last operating system within the windows 
platforms was either windows XP or Vista  if I   recall well enough. After 
graduating college,  I decided to try out a Mac because one of my friends had 
one and she was showing me all of the cool accessibility features on the Apple 
max. Before purchasing, I went to take some classes at the Apple store and the 
staff was nice enough to show me how to use voiceover. After  I purchased my 
first Mac laptop, I never looked back because the accessibility features were 
great. In my opinion, they were better than the Jaws  Screen reader I  used to 
use back then. My windows laptop was on its last leg anyway, so that was the 
main reason why I purchased  it at the time. Also, buying a Mac is 
cost-effective because you do not have to spend additional money on making your 
product more accessible. Not many blind people are able to afford paying a 
premium price to get a screen reader that is essential for work or school, 
unless an organization is willing to help with the cost associated Which also 
means going through the process of sending in paperwork to prove that you are 
either in school, looking for a job or at work in some cases.
Best,
Priscilla

If you are wearing a mask and have face ID, can you still use just a passcode

I believe that people would like to have touch ID so that they can open their 
phone easier when they have to wear a mask. We all need to remember COVID-19 is 
still out there in all of us probably have to wear masks when we’re out and 
about. Face ID will not work very well when you have to wear a mask.

Matthew,
First off, glad to hear you're updating and moving to the "other side"
as it were with Face ID. Yes, Face ID can be tricky at times, but I like it 
much better than touch ID, and sometimes wish that all of the Touch ID devotees 
would try Face ID for a week, versus just claiming Touch ID is better.
Regarding your questions, Yes, when you unlock the phone and stay on the Lock 
screen, the phone will not automatically go to the home screen without you 
performing the gesture. When I double tap on a notification after unlocking my 
phone, I'm taken into that app, and then can use the Home slide gesture to get 
back to the Home screen. I think there was at 1 time a setting to make the 
phone unlock and take focus immediately to the Home Screen. I don't recall 
where it was or the name, but perhaps someone else knows. I like having to 
perform the home gesture though since it usually doesn't take any time at all 
for me to get to the home screen or wherever I was before. One setting you may 
wan to change is "touch to wake" which is found in Accessibility and Touch 
settings. This means each time you touch the screen the phone will wake up. 
This can get annoying fast, similar to raise to wake in theory. If you like for 
the phone to wake up each time you touch the screen or move it, then that's 
good.

Have fun,
Wayne Merritt

Les,
If you are looking for an iPhone 11 with 128 GB, that should be
available. The 11 comes in 64, 128 and 256 GB sizes, according to the
Apple Store app.

Interestingly enough, apple announced a new iPad Air last month that will have 
touch ID built into the power button. I was really hoping they were going to do

RE: Review iPhone 12 series??

2020-10-16 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Sieghard,

It's nice to hear from you. Sounds like you and your wife are doing well, I 
certainly hope so. You make some really good points about the iPhone 11. We are 
going to the Apple Store tomorrow, so we will see. I really don't understand 
why Apple no longer sells the Pro model, or why they don't make an 11 with 128 
GB storage. When we purchased our 8 Plus models, we sprang for 256 GB, even 
though we knew we would never use that much. But at that time, Apple gave you 
more for your phone depending on the storage, so I figured we would get money 
back for both of us. Surprise, surprise. The 8 Plus models will get us $210 US 
regardless of the storage. My point here is that we all will make decisions 
based on two or three years down the road, and the rules will likely change by 
then. I can get by with a 64 GB model, my wife will wish the extra storage with 
a variety of photos and videos she gets. That's what happened with 
grandchildren! You have given me more to consider before
 We arrive at the store.
Best Regards,

Les

Hi Les,

Probably a wise choice not to pay top Dollar to get the iPhone 12, I think 
anybody who has anything from a 10 up is wasting their money. One thing, 
however, if I were to consider an upgrade I would certainly look at last year's 
iPhone 11 instead of the XR from 2 years ago. My wife and I hadn't planned to 
upgrade either this year and keep our iPhone 8 which we got 2 years ago. 
However, we had 64 Gb models and while I only use about half of that space, my 
wife likes to keep lots of photos and videos on her phone and hers was full. 
Then our provider here in Canada came out with a pretty good deal, I could get 
an iPhone 11 64 Gb for $33/month over 2 years with $0 up front, that is $792 
Canadian which works out to less than $600 US, not a super deal, but also not 
too bad so we went for it. Unfortunately they only offered the 11 with 64 Gb 
and since my wife likes smaller phones anyways we went with an iPhone 11 Pro 
for her with 256 Gb storage which cost the same $33 a month over 2 years + a 
downpayment of a few hundred Bucks, can't remember exactly how much, but again 
in the end a few hundred cheaper than if we had bought one outright. It seems 
that there is only a $100 or so difference between the XR and 11 and for that I 
think the 11 is a better choice, if you do want to sell it or trade it in in 2 
or 3 years you probably make that extra $100 back in resale value.

2020-10-16 Thread Richard Turner
Well, I compared the SE 2nd generation with the iPhone 11, and if there was a 
quality difference, it was very minor.
Face it, you are not going to get much stereo separation with the length of a 
phone.

Subject: Re: Audio quality on the 11 vs the upcoming models?

My guess is the speakers on the 11 Pro Max are better and perhaps louder than 
the 11, simply because the phone is bigger and there's more separation between 
left and right, if the phone is held sideways that is. The speakers might sound 
better than those on the 11 or 11 Pro, not sure on that since I haven't heard 
them to compare. I've been using YouTube to look up things like this. Though 
audio from a video recording can be tricky and hard to judge depending on how 
the person has their mike positioned, it is an option.

RE: Audio quality on the 11 vs the upcoming models?

Hi Matthew,
It was Sieghard who suggested that to me. I do not believe one can purchase the 
Eleven Pro. It's just the 11 in 64 or 256 GB.

Re: Audio quality on the 11 vs the upcoming models?

2020-10-16 Thread Wayne Merritt
My guess is the speakers on the 11 Pro Max are better and perhaps
louder than the 11, simply because the phone is bigger and there's
more separation between left and right, if the phone is held sideways
that is. The speakers might sound better than those on the 11 or 11
Pro, not sure on that since I haven't heard them to compare. I've been
using YouTube to look up things like this. Though audio from a video
recording can be tricky and hard to judge depending on how the person
has their mike positioned, it is an option.

Of course, we won't know for sure until someone gets their hands on one and 
does their tear-down, but since that wasn’t mentioned at all by Apple, I 
suspect the speakers are the same.

Not for all, but a gaming headset that's for a PC will work with an iPhone.

2020-10-16 Thread Kevin Minor
Hi.

In May of this year, I purchased a Hyperx Stinger Cloud gaming headset. I got 
it for my laptop. It has both the audio and mic all on a 3.5 mm plug. I was 
waiting for paratransit, and, just for fun, I decided to see if it would work 
on my iPhone X. I plugged in the lightning adaptor to the headset, and plugged 
that into the iPhone. IT WORKED! This setup isn't for everyone, because these 
headphones completely cover the ears, and they do a great job of blocking out 
outside sounds. For me, it's great, because it's not buds, they're comfortable, 
and the phones have a volume control, so I can turn the phone's volume all the 
way up, have it in my pocket, and adjust to a comfortable level with the 
phones. For $50, it's not bad, and I can also use them on my laptop.

Just sharing. I'll say again that this isn't for everyone. It's just something 
to try out if you like.

Have a blessed day and don't work too hard.
Kevin and Jilly the flying doggie

That might be a good move. Thanks for your help and recommendations, both of

it is HL2360DW not two 300 60DW. Anyway it’s a little overwhelming at this

Whew!Maybe I can contact the company maybe I can contact the company directly. 
That might be a good move. Thanks for your help and recommendations, both of 
you… Refurbished or what they’re calling replenished which may mean something 
different the prices range from like $89-$500. I did get the model number wrong 
it is HL2360DW not two 300 60DW. Anyway it’s a little overwhelming at this 
point. Especially when it comes to prices. Target sells them. And I can buy one 
on eBay too! What route to go? Too many choices!

Re: Wireless printers

2020-10-16 Thread deidre muccio
Richard, 
I see a 2300 D, not a 2360 DW. Plus it says it’s a duo something which I have 
no clue about. There isn’t much info on the description of this thing other 
than that I can print on paper envelopes labels and fabric! Nothing about size 
etc. I also saw a review that talked about how the printer will just stop 
working when I want to buy a new cartridge even if there’s still ink left. But 
then I saw some reviews that mentioned how to reset that function. Sorry, I’m 
just not savvy about this sort of thing. Not sure what gets plugged into what. 
The USB cable is used to charge the printer? And does something get plugged 
into my wireless router? That kind of defeats the purpose of its being 
wireless, I thought. I must be in the dark about all this.

Yes, you can since you also need the passcode after the phone restarts just as

I believe that people would like to have touch ID so that they can open their

still out there in all of us probably have to wear masks when we’re out and

RE: But All I Wanted was Touch ID

2020-10-16 Thread Paul JOrdan
If you are wearing a mask and have face ID, can you still use just a passcode 
to unlock your phone?

Thanks.

God bless!

I believe that people would like to have touch ID so that they can open their 
phone easier when they have to wear a mask. We all need to remember COVID-19 is 
still out there in all of us probably have to wear masks when we’re out and 
about. Face ID will not work very well when you have to wear a mask.

RE: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

2020-10-16 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Just curious, why would you not buy a regular 12 with a 6.1 inch screen, still 
larger than your current 5.5 inch screen of your 6S Plus. In fact, you could 
buy an iPhone 11 which would cost youless than half of what the 12 Pro would 
cost and then when Apple releases their phones next year or the year after that 
and they include both in-display Touch Id and Face Id you can get one of them 
and sell your ipHone 11.

Subject: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

Hello, so I've held onto my 6s plus for five years, since I had a bunch of 
music and books on it. I'm planning on upgrading to the 12 max, since I want 
the long battery life and the screen size for braille screen input. I'll be 
upset if touch ID comes back in a phone in the next year, because I will have 
spent money in this phone, but oh well. My main question is about the lock 
screen. From working with the phones of the students I teach, I'm comfortable 
with the gesture of press, slide, and lift to do the home and other things, but 
was checking on a few other things. I understand that you won't accidentally 
buy something just when you face towards the phone, because you need to click 
the side button twice, but will it stay on the lock screen while you're 
flipping through your notifications until you actually perform the home 
gesture? If you tap on a notification, I'm assuming you'll need to perform the 
home gesture to activate that part, then another home gesture to come out to 
the main screen? Is that correct?
Thanks, Matthew

RE: Review iPhone 12 series??

2020-10-16 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Les,

Probably a wise choice not to pay top Dollar to get the iPhone 12, I think 
anybody who has anything from a 10 up is wasting their money. One thing, 
however, if I were to consider an upgrade I would certainly look at last year's 
iPhone 11 instead of the XR from 2 years ago. My wife and I hadn't planned to 
upgrade either this year and keep our iPhone 8 which we got 2 years ago. 
However, we had 64 Gb models and while I only use about half of that space, my 
wife likes to keep lots of photos and videos on her phone and hers was full. 
Then our provider here in Canada came out with a pretty good deal, I could get 
an iPhone 11 64 Gb for $33/month over 2 years with $0 up front, that is $792 
Canadian which works out to less than $600 US, not a super deal, but also not 
too bad so we went for it. Unfortunately they only offered the 11 with 64 Gb 
and since my wife likes smaller phones anyways we went with an iPhone 11 Pro 
for her with 256 Gb storage which cost the same $33 a month over 2 years + a 
downpayment of a few hundred Bucks, can't remember exactly how much, but again 
in the end a few hundred cheaper than if we had bought one outright. It seems 
that there is only a $100 or so difference between the XR and 11 and for that I 
think the 11 is a better choice, if you do want to sell it or trade it in in 2 
or 3 years you probably make that extra $100 back in resale value.

Hi Mary, Alan and Interested Others,
Well, Verizon will not take advantage of us. My wife and I will be getting 
iPhone 10R models. I know I can learn to use Face ID, and now is a good time to 
learn. I figure it will be a long time before we see 5G in our area. If I am 
mistaken and it happens within two years or so, we can upgrade if we wish. In 
the meantime, with the money we will save, my wife can upgrade her iPad if she 
wishes to do so. I appreciate all of the discussion on various iPhome models. 
It really helped me make a decision for myself and the recommendation I offered 
my wife.
Best Regards,

Les

That is exactly right, the little wall adapter and charging cable never come 
out of the box any more when I get a new iPhone. I do use the headset, but if 
they don't include one any more then Oh well, it's not a big deal, I like the 
Apple wired Earpods and usually have to get a new one at some point during the 
lifecycle of my current phone. As for are they kidding when they say that they 
are reducing their carbon footprint, I don't think so, these things might be 
small, but when you consider how many tens of Billions of these are being 
produced by Apple, Samsung, Google and all the other companies this is no small 
matter. I would be very surprised if Samsung and other wouldn't follow suit and 
verysoon their phones will ship without a charger also.

For my part, I’m glad Apple is doing this. I have enough peripherals lying 
around the house, I don’t need any more, and I don’t need to be adding to my 
carbon foot print. I just wish Apple would knock a few dollars off the price of 
their devices, but as long as I keep buying them, I guess there’s no motivation

RE: Wireless printers

2020-10-16 Thread Richard Turner
OK, The Brother HL-2360 DW is a straight lazer-jet, black and white, and yes, 
you will need sighted assistance to set it up, but after that it should just 
work.
You select WiFi on the printer control panel, then there is something that 
blinks on the and you have to press the WiFi button on the Router.  Wait a few 
minutes, and it prints a test page showing Connection OK.
Then, you press the OK button on the Printer control panel and you are good to 
go.
When you select print from the share or more actions on your iPhone, you will 
need to wait until it finds your printer, which usually takes very little time.
When you select the printer, you will then have some options.
It will default to double sided printing, but if you want single sided, double 
tap where it says double sided and select single sided.
It will also show you how many pages in case you maybe only want to print 1, 
you can deselect the other pages.
Then, back at the top left is the print button.  Double tpa and you are 
printing.

The all-in -one model is not necessary unless you have sighted help for doing 
faxing, scanning, etc.
Since models change, and we bought the HL-2360 DW a few years ago, you may find 
another model with a similar feature set.
We prefer lazer-jets because you do not have the issue of ink drying out from 
non-use, and changing a toner cartridge is much easier than dealing with the 
ink cartridges.
You will need help setting the printer up the first time, with the printer drum 
and toner cartridge, but once that is done, you will be able to change 
cartridges as needed on your own.
You also get many more pages per dollar with a laser-jet than with an ink jet.


If you want to know, the all-in-one model is MFC L2710DW.  But, I don't 
recommend it for someone without sighted assistance.

I really like our Brother lazer-jets.
The newest one is an all in one that works great with all of our Apple devices, 
th1st gen SE, the 2nd Gen SE, iPad Mini 5, plus our Windows computers.
Our older Brother Printer is a little more finicky but I think that is our 
setup issue, not really the printers.
 
I'm going to get my sighted wife to set the older one up again and if it fixes 
the issue, I will let you know.
I will also give you some model numbers.

Subject: Wireless printers

Hello all,
Is anyone using a wireless printer with let’s say an iPhone SE 2020? I am 
getting tired of running down to the coffee shop to have things printed. Any 
suggestions? One friend says that hers is quite fickle but I don’t actually 
know what her whole set up is like. Plus if there’s anything I need to do that 
would require  site and is not accessible through other means, that would be a 
drag, At least once it’s been set up. If I need help with that that shouldn’t 
be too too difficult to get.
Thanks.

I'm not too sure how it will work yet as I haven't played with it much, but

RE: Siri quit saying things regarding sports

2020-10-16 Thread Richard Turner
If you are still having the problem, you may want to call Apple Accessibility.
It sorted itself out a couple of days ago.
You may of course want to reboot your phone first and see if that clears out 
whatever the issue is, but Apple thinks it is a server issue for the source of 
the sports info, rather than a Siri issue.
But it works great for me now.

The quickest way to find it is at the top of the main settings screen, there is 
a search box. Type the words
 tap to wake in there and it should come up first.

touching the screen did not wake it up.

Subject: Re: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

Matthew,
First off, glad to hear you're updating and moving to the "other side"
as it were with Face ID. Yes, Face ID can be tricky at times, but I like it 
much better than touch ID, and sometimes wish that all of the Touch ID devotees 
would try Face ID for a week, versus just claiming Touch ID is better.
Regarding your questions, Yes, when you unlock the phone and stay on the Lock 
screen, the phone will not automatically go to the home screen without you 
performing the gesture. When I double tap on a notification after unlocking my 
phone, I'm taken into that app, and then can use the Home slide gesture to get 
back to the Home screen. I think there was at 1 time a setting to make the 
phone unlock and take focus immediately to the Home Screen. I don't recall 
where it was or the name, but perhaps someone else knows. I like having to 
perform the home gesture though since it usually doesn't take any time at all 
for me to get to the home screen or wherever I was before. One setting you may 
wan to change is "touch to wake" which is found in Accessibility and Touch 
settings. This means each time you touch the screen the phone will wake up. 
This can get annoying fast, similar to raise to wake in theory. If you like for 
the phone to wake up each time you touch the screen or move it, then that's 
good.

Have fun,
Wayne Merritt

Hello, so I've held onto my 6s plus for five years, since I had a
bunch of music and books on it. I'm planning on upgrading to the 12
max, since I want the long battery life and the screen size for
braille screen input. I'll be upset if touch ID comes back in a phone
in the next year, because I will have spent money in this phone, but
oh well. My main question is about the lock screen. From working with
the phones of the students I teach, I'm comfortable with the gesture
of press, slide, and lift to do the home and other things, but was
checking on a few other things. I understand that you won't
accidentally buy something just when you face towards the phone,
because you need to click the side button twice, but will it stay on
the lock screen while you're flipping through your notifications until
you actually perform the home gesture? If you tap on a notification,
I'm assuming you'll need to perform the home gesture to activate that part, 
then another home gesture to come out to the main screen? Is that correct?
Thanks, Matthew

OK, I just confirmed that.

Re: The autoplay switch in the music app seems broken.

2020-10-16 Thread Wayne Merritt
I have Apple Music and haven't noticed this behavior. Can you describe
more where you are seeing it? Is it in the now playing screen? Also,
is it another enhancement from iOS 14.X? I have played whole albums
not in my playlists or library, and nothing happened when the album
finished. I haven't seen this with any play lists, but then again,
some of my play lists have literally hundreds of songs so I usually
don't reach he end when listening to them on and off over several
days.

Unwanted automatic launching of zoom

2020-10-16 Thread deidre muccio
Hello again,
Is anyone else having the issue of hitting on a link which could be from 
anywhere, Amazon or a patient portal from some hospital that suddenly launches 
zoom and does not take you to where the link has otherwise promised to lead 
you? I find this horribly annoying. I’m on the verge of  deleting zoom and only 
reinstalling it when I have to do a virtual call.
Does anyone know a reason why this would be happening? Or how to solve the 
problem?

Wireless printers

2020-10-16 Thread deidre muccio
Hello all,
Is anyone using a wireless printer with let’s say an iPhone SE 2020? I am 
getting tired of running down to the coffee shop to have things printed. Any 
suggestions? One friend says that hers is quite fickle but I don’t actually 
know what her whole set up is like. Plus if there’s anything I need to do that 
would require  site and is not accessible through other means, that would be a 
drag, At least once it’s been set up. If I need help with that that shouldn’t 
be too too difficult to get.
Thanks.

RE: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

2020-10-16 Thread Richard Turner
I think that wake up command is tap to wake, not touch to wake.
When I had the iPhone 11 for work, I found turning off raise to wake, but 
leaving tap to wake on worked very well.
I had to actually tap the phone to wake it up then do the home gesture, just 
touching the screen did not wake it up.

Subject: Re: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

Matthew,
First off, glad to hear you're updating and moving to the "other side"
as it were with Face ID. Yes, Face ID can be tricky at times, but I like it 
much better than touch ID, and sometimes wish that all of the Touch ID devotees 
would try Face ID for a week, versus just claiming Touch ID is better.
Regarding your questions, Yes, when you unlock the phone and stay on the Lock 
screen, the phone will not automatically go to the home screen without you 
performing the gesture. When I double tap on a notification after unlocking my 
phone, I'm taken into that app, and then can use the Home slide gesture to get 
back to the Home screen. I think there was at 1 time a setting to make the 
phone unlock and take focus immediately to the Home Screen. I don't recall 
where it was or the name, but perhaps someone else knows. I like having to 
perform the home gesture though since it usually doesn't take any time at all 
for me to get to the home screen or wherever I was before. One setting you may 
wan to change is "touch to wake" which is found in Accessibility and Touch 
settings. This means each time you touch the screen the phone will wake up. 
This can get annoying fast, similar to raise to wake in theory. If you like for 
the phone to wake up each time you touch the screen or move it, then that's 
good.

Have fun,
Wayne Merritt

Re: Preparing for face ID as a new user.

2020-10-16 Thread Wayne Merritt
Matthew,
First off, glad to hear you're updating and moving to the "other side"
as it were with Face ID. Yes, Face ID can be tricky at times, but I
like it much better than touch ID, and sometimes wish that all of the
Touch ID devotees would try Face ID for a week, versus just claiming
Touch ID is better.
Regarding your questions, Yes, when you unlock the phone and stay on
the Lock screen, the phone will not automatically go to the home
screen without you performing the gesture. When I double tap on a
notification after unlocking my phone, I'm taken into that app, and
then can use the Home slide gesture to get back to the Home screen. I
think there was at 1 time a setting to make the phone unlock and take
focus immediately to the Home Screen. I don't recall where it was or
the name, but perhaps someone else knows. I like having to perform the
home gesture though since it usually doesn't take any time at all for
me to get to the home screen or wherever I was before. One setting you
may wan to change is "touch to wake" which is found in Accessibility
and Touch settings. This means each time you touch the screen the
phone will wake up. This can get annoying fast, similar to raise to
wake in theory. If you like for the phone to wake up each time you
touch the screen or move it, then that's good.

Have fun,
Wayne Merritt

Do you have the Apple Music subscription?
If that is the case, that is the difference since I do not subscribe to apple

RE: Review iPhone 12 series??

2020-10-16 Thread chaltain
For my part, I’m glad Apple is doing this. I have enough peripherals lying 
around the house, I don’t need any more, and I don’t need to be adding to my 
carbon foot print. I just wish Apple would knock a few dollars off the price of 
their devices, but as long as I keep buying them, I guess there’s no motivation 
for them to do that.

I don't understand that why apple is not providing charger adopter and 
earphones/headphones? They claim that they didn't include these to reduce 
carbon emission. Are they kidding man or am I missing something else? If so one 
can imagine that in 2030 there release an iPhone 20, and will state that we 
didn't include headset/phone because we care about the environment and assume 
that buyer already have phone. ☺️ ☺️

I am with you on 5G, Les and Alan. I think it’s a bunch of height, especially 
Verizon and their MM wave which is vanishingly difficult to actually connect 
to. So they’re ripping you off yet again. It’s interesting that both they and 
AT are giving a little subsidy on the iPhone. They must be desperate. I think 
the SE2 could be very compelling. That’s especially if you like a home button. 
I’m sticking with my 10 R.

Preparing for face ID as a new user.

2020-10-16 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, so I've held onto my 6s plus for five years, since I had a bunch of 
music and books on it. I'm planning on upgrading to the 12 max, since I want 
the long battery life and the screen size for braille screen input. I'll be 
upset if touch ID comes back in a phone in the next year, because I will have 
spent money in this phone, but oh well. My main question is about the lock 
screen. From working with the phones of the students I teach, I'm comfortable 
with the gesture of press, slide, and lift to do the home and other things, but 
was checking on a few other things. I understand that you won't accidentally 
buy something just when you face towards the phone, because you need to click 
the side button twice, but will it stay on the lock screen while you're 
flipping through your notifications until you actually perform the home 
gesture? If you tap on a notification, I'm assuming you'll need to perform the 
home gesture to activate that part, then another home gesture to come out to 
the main screen? Is that correct?
Thanks, Matthew
