Can anyone recommend a good/accessible anti-virus app/programme for IPad/IPhone?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Wondering if anyone can help with this. Was just wondering if anyone could 
recommend a good and accessible anti-virus app/programme I could put on my IPad 
and IPhone?? 

My reason for  asking is that a  friend of  mine has just managed  to  get  a  
very very nasty virus on his Mac, simply while trying  to access a perfectly 
legit website. His Apple trainer  came out last night to see if there was 
anything at all she could do to fix the problem, but the virus had basically 
trashed his computer. So she's had to take the Mac back with her, wipe it 
completely and is  going to have to completely reinstall everything! 

Luckily for me I already have anti-virus software on my Mac, but having 
witnessed all that first-hand it  did  get  me thinking about protecting my 
IPhone  and IPad. So if anyone has any ideas  of  any good apps that will do 
this suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Many thanks.

Hi. I've tried that. It says that quicknav is on, but then still won't let me 
navigate at all.

Re: Help needed restoring quicknav for my bluetooth keyboard on my IPad please

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Thanks so much for  all your help/advice with this. I wound up having to get 
sighted assistance, switching voiceover off, then completely resetting the IPad 
and switching voiceover back on again. I then re-paired my keyboard. Since 
doing that so far, touch wood, quicknav seems to be working. But really, what a 
process to go through, and couldn't have done it without sighted help! Really 
hope Apple make bluetooth keyboards etc even more stable with the next IOS  
update! 

Thanks so much again for all your help.

Some questions about/help needed with using Twitterrific with voiceover

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Wondering if anyone can be of  any help here. Yesterday I installed 
Twitterrific on my IPad and IPhone. So far it looks really good, bbut I have a 
couple of questions which I'm hoping someone may know the answer to. 

 Firstly, doo you know if Twitterrific would also work on my Mac? 
 
 Secondly, I read in the help section of Twitterrific's settings about 
 cleanning your timeline cash data and reloading your tweets without all the 
 extra rubbish. I tried to follow the instructions they gave, but with 
 relatively little joy. Has anyone else done this using VO?, and if so could 
 you send me some instructions on how to do this?? 
 
 Many thanks for any help you can give.

Can anyone tell me how I edit the bio of my Twitter profile using voiceover please?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just a quick question. I'm trying to edit the information/bbio in my Twitter 
profile using voiceover. I've tried  it on all 3 of my devices (IPhone, IPad 
and Mac) and every time I get to the place where I can edit the text it all of 
a sudden seems to become completely inaccessible. Voiceover stops reading the 
text in the field I'm editing, so I've  no idea where abouts in the information 
I am, so consequently can't delete/amend/type anything different. My Apple 
personal ttrainer  spent 35 minutes in my lesson today trying to do the same 
thing using voiceover, but with absolutely no joy at all. 

So does anyone know how I can successfully go about editing  the 
information/bio in my Twitter profile using voiceover?? Is it actually 
accessible? Or am I always going to have to rely on a sighted person to change 
things for me?? 

Any help/information anyone  could  give on this would be most  gratefully 
appreciated. My personal trainer has sent  an e-mail to Twitter complaining 
about their inaccessibility in this regard. Would encourage anyone  else  who's 
having this problem to do  the same in the hopes  that Twitter will listen and 
improve things for us.

Can anyone recommend a mini external bluetooth keyboard (the smaller the better) for use with an IPhone?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Was just wondering if anyone had any answers to the following. I'm looking to 
get a mini external bluetooth keyboard to pair with my IPhone. I do have what 
they claim is a mini keyboard at the moment, but really it's still quite 
chunky/large comparatively. So if anyone has any recommendations for good 
external mini bluetooth keyboards which would work well with the IPhone really 
would be muchh appreciated. Very important point ... the smaller the keyboard 
the better. 

Thanks.

Does anyone know how I can turn up the sound on my IPad without voiceover's volume being affected too (e.g. when watching videos etc)?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I'm not sure if this question has been asked before. I was just wondering if 
there was a way of adjusting the balance of sound between voiceover and 
whatever else I may be listening to/watching on my IPad? For example, if I want 
to listen to music, watch videos, or clips on YouTube etc I turn the sound up 
on my IPad so I can hear whatever it is. However, this then also means that 
voiceover is extremely loud too, which I don't need. So is there a way of me 
being able to listen to things on my IPad and turn the sound up without 
voiceover's volume being raised as well? 

Any suggestions muchh appreciated. Thanks.

Hoping someone may be able to help with this. Was wondering if anyone knows how

So if anyone could tell me how I could change these tabs around to the ones I 
want to see I'd be most grateful.

Re: Does anyone know how I can change the tabs which appear in Twitterrific on IPhone and IPad?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Thanks so much for that! I knew they could be changed as my Apple trainer did 
tell me once, but it was only briefly and I couldn't remember for the life of 
me how to do it! 

On a slightly separate note, but still to do with Twitterrific, there is one 
thing that they definitely need to work on making more accessible for us - 
cleaning the timeline cash! At the moment when you follow the steps VO gives 
you absolutely no help what so ever about where the icons are that you need to 
touch (it doesn't speak them or anything). Even my trainer's tried and hasn't 
found a way so I'm having to rely on sighted help at the moment. So definitely 
something they need to fix, unless anyone knows something we don't. 

Thanks again.

 It looks like you tap  hold on the one you want to change.  Hold it until a 
 menu pops up.  Then tap one of the choices, which will replace the one you 
 wanted to change.
 
 Hope that makes sense.  I just changed mentions for favorites.

Re: Does anyone here know/can remind me how to pair a Keys-To-Go bluetooth keyboard with IPad please?

Hi 

Thanks for the instructions. I'd got that far, but have completely forgotten 
where the pairing button is on the Keys-To-Go keyboard. So if anyone knows 
would be much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Re: screen lock seems to ignore user settings

Hi all 

2 quick questions. Firstly, how do you enable low power/power-saving mode? 
Secondly, every time I've read an e-mail and return to my inbox VO says "switch 
to full-screen mode". What does this mean, and how do you go about doing so? 

Any help much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Hi all 

Was just wondering if anyone knows/can remind me how I go about creating groups 
within contacts on my IPhone/IPad? I haven't needed to do so for a while, but 
now I have so many contacts I think I need to start grouping them. So is it 
still possible? 

Thanks.

Hi all 

Thanks so much for all your help with this one. Selecting edit from the rota

Just one other question which is kind of related. I want to put a poster, which

Can anyone recommend a good full-size external bluetooth keybboard that works well with IPad?

Hi all 

Just wondered if anyone has any recommendations  for a good  full-sized 
external bluetooth keyboard that would work  well with IPad? My current one has 
finally given up on me, and despite trying everything I can think of itt just 
doesn't want to work any more. So I'm going to have to get a new one. So any 
recommendations of good products would be much appreciated.

Re: My top iOS 9 Bugs

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi 

Please can folk make sure they report these bugs to Apple, especially the 
bluetooth keyboard one! Whilst I do occasionally use the touch screen, 99.9% of 
the time I use my bluetooth keyboard for everything. I've reported it to Apple 
accessibility, but would strongly encourage everyone else to do the same, 
otherwise it'll never get fixed.

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Chris 

I have been having exactly the same problems with my bluetooth keyboard. It is 
definitely a serious bug. I have reported it to Apple, and would urge you and 
anyone else who experiences it to do the same ASAP. Hopefully, the more of us 
who report it the more  notice they might take and the sooner this awful bug 
might get fixed!! I for one am really struggling not being able to use my 
keyboard!!

Re: Inability to type with bluetooth keyboard in iOS9?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Alex 

I'm not going to say whether you should advise people to upgrade or not. 
However, the bluetooth keyboard bug is quite significant to those it happens 
to, as it just won't speak or let you type text when you're in any sort of text 
edit field. It just freezes and VO stops talking. The only way you can resolve 
it is to turn the bluetooth keyboard off and make do with the on-screen 
keyboard. But obviously this is by no means ideal when you're trying to write 
long documents or e-mails etc. I'm sure others will have their opinions too.

Re: Inability to type with bluetooth keyboard in iOS9?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi. 

Well I've had trouble using both an Apple keyboard and a Logitech keyboard. 
They need to fix it ASAP, as at the moment it's useless for people like me who 
are totally blind. Yes, I could try to type with VO turned off, but I'd always 
be very nervous as I wouldn't know what I was typing, whether I was still in 
the right place, etc etc. + there'd be a million and one typos!! Desperately 
hope that if enough people report it Apple might finally wake up and smell the 
coffee so-to-speak where these bugs are concerned and sort them out.

Re: A CALL TO ACTION: VoiceOver No Longer Announcing Number of Messages in the Native iOS 9 Mail App

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi. I have now reported this to Apple as well. The more people who report these 
bugs the better. After all, as they said in the last responnse I had from them, 
that's what they want us to do.

Re: A CALL TO ACTION: For All Camera App Users

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

I agree. The only reason I won't be reporting this bug is because I've never 
used the camera with VO, so would literally have no idea what I was on about. 
But I really think anyone who does should report it, along with any/all the 
other bugs they come across. After all, that's exactly what Apple asked us all 
to do in their last response to me.

Re: iOS9 and Fantastical

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi. 

I've noticed this too, and, as has already been said, it appears  not just to 
be a VoiceOver bug either as my sighted friend tried it without VO and it 
wouldn't let her do anything. She looked to see where we  could report it, but 
it wasn't obvious. So if anyone knows where we go to report this one please let 
us know.

Re: AmazonBasics bluetooth keyboard

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just to say please continue to report this bug to Apple at 
accessibil...@apple.com until it is properly fixed. As has been said on other 
lists, the more people who report it the greater the likelyhood that Apple 
might listen and fix it. They need to be made fully aware by a lot of people 
just what a serious problem it is/can be for  us.

Apples' response to my e-mail reporting IOS9 bugs - they really do want/need our help!

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just an e-mail to let you know I've had a  response from Apple following the 
e-mail I sent them reporting the IOS9 bugs. They say that they really want all 
our help, and have asked that every time any of us  experience any form of an 
IOS9 accessibility bug, however mild we think it is, to report it by e-mailing 
them at accessibil...@apple.com. I paste below  the text of  what they said, 
bbut the bottom line from them is please please all get reporting every time 
something occurs. 

Thanks. 

See text below. 

Eleanor

Secondly, regarding the bugs you are expeeriencing using bluetooth keyboards, 
please can you and all your contacts report every instance of a problem 
occurring to us as soon as it has happened. Please ensure you tell us what you 
were trying to do with the keyboard when the problem occurred, if/how you tried 
to fix it, and whether or not your attempts to do so were successful. We do 
appreciate that the use of bluetooth keybooards is very important for you, 
which is why we would like as accurate a picture as possible through as many 
reports of what is going on so that we can work on fixing the problems.

Re: iOS 9.01 and External Bluetooth Keyboards

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Chris 

Please report any problems like this with your bluetooth keyboard to 
accessibil...@apple.com. It's really important that as many people report it as 
possible in the hope that Apple might actually listen to us, take the problems 
seriously, and actually do something about fixing it.

Can anyone remind me/send me step-by-step instructions on how to update my IPhone/IPad through my Mac as opposed to over-the-air??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Sorry to be a pain, as I know this has been discussed many times on list, but 
I've lost the e-mails. Could anyone send me step-by-step/idiot-proof 
instructions on how I can update my IPhone and IPad using my Mac as opposed to 
trying an over-the-air update?? People say it's safer doing it this way, but 
I've had a total blank. 

Many thanks for any help.

Wondering if anyone can help me with this. I'm going to a friend's

I've not heard of this, so was wondering if this was indeed the case?? If so, 
how would I set this up for my friend as he's very interested in this feature?? 

Any help/advice given ASAP really would be very much appreciated.

Can anyone recommend a good Bluetooth keyboard case for an IPad Mini 4??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just wondering if anyone can help. I am hoping to get an IPad Mini 4 in the 
next few days (a belated Christmas/early birthday present). I want to keep it 
in a keyboard case so that I can use a keyboard with it at any time rather than 
having to worry about taking my external keyboard everywhere with me. So just 
wondered if anyone could recommend any good keyboard cases for IPad Mini 4 
which are reliable and robust/protect the device well?? 

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks.

Urgent questions re transferring data from an IPad Mini 3 to an IPad Mini 4 - any help/advice much appreciated

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Am really hoping someone might be able to help me here. I collected my new IPad 
Mini 4 today and have been trying to set it up all evening, but it's not gone 
without its hitches. 

My main concern has been/is ensuring that all my data came across successfully 
from my IPad Mini 3 (which I'll be selling to a friend once I've cleared it), 
to my new IPad. So I was advised to set up my new IPad from my latest ICloud 
back-up of the old one. However, when I came to do this my Mini 4 told me that 
it didn't have the latest IOS system on it (I.e. 9.2) so couldn't accept the 
back-up from my Mini 3! The only thing it'd let me do is set the device up as a 
new IPad and then update the IOS system. So does anyone know if there's now a 
way I can transfer the latest ICloud back-up of my Mini 3 onto my Mini 4?? 

Also, I want to make sure that all my ringtones come across successfully, as I 
have spent a long time building up my collection and don't want to lose them 
all/have to get them all again. So what's the best way of doing this?? Would it 
be through my Mac? If so, could someone give me some instructions on/remind me 
how to do this?? 

Thirdly, what's the best way/how do I ensure that all my photos, contacts and 
music have all come across safely?? 

So sorry for all the questions, but I want to make sure I've done everything I 
need to and that it's all work before I clear my Mini 3. So any 
help/advice/hints/tips anyone can give to assist me with this really would be 
very much appreciated. 

Many thanks.

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi. Thanks for that information. So, having just looked under settings on the 
IPad, would the reset I need be the one that says "reset network settings", or 
the one that says "erase all"?

You 

Question about FceBook - is it accessible using voiceover on IOS devices?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just a quick question about FaceBook. I'd really like to set up an account and 
start using it. However, when I tried to do this a couple of years ago to be 
honest I didn't find it very accessible on my IPad and IPhone when totally 
reliant on voiceover (which I am). So I just wondered whether things had 
improved and whether it was now accessible using VO? I use Twitter all the time 
and have no issues with it, and I'd love to do the same with FaceBook, but 
don't really want to take the plunge without asking about others experiences 
first. 

Thanks for any help you can give.

Re: Is your App Store app slow/sluggish? Here is how to clear the App Store cache

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi 

I was very interested to read this article, and was just wondering if anyone 
had tried to do this and actually got it to work?? It's just I've tried, and it 
might just be me doing something wrong, but it's not worked on any of my 
attempts. I'm particularly interested as I have my new IPad and want to keep it 
as uncluttered as possible. So if anyone knows if this works and can give me 
some detailed instructions on how to accomplish this (idiot-profof), I'd be 
really grateful. Alternatively, if anyone can recommend good apps or methods to 
help keep the IPad free from rubbish I'd also be interested. 

Thanks.

Please can someone remind me how I go about clearing my documents and data from the storage options in settings on my IPhone?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I am currently trying to clear some space on my IPhone. Obviously, one of the 
things I know to do is to manage things through the "manage storage" option in 
settings. However, I've had a complete blank and can't remember how to clear 
the documents and data from the various apps I've got. I've got no trouble 
finding the button that says "delete app", but that isn't really what I want to 
do - I just want to get rid of the rubbish which has built up in documents and 
data. So if anyone could send me some step-by-step instructions on how to do 
this would be most grateful. Or, do I actually have to delete the app in its 
entirety and then re-download it? 

Thanks.

How can I get text message forwarding to start working again having updated my IPhone and IPad to 9.3??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I know this might seem a really obvious thing to some, but I've tried and tried 
and can't get it to work. I've just updated my IPhone and IPad to IOS9.3. When 
I was running IOS9.2.1 I had text message forwarding running very successfully 
from my IPhone to my IPad. However, since updating I can't for the life of me 
get it to work. So was wondering if someone could remind me/send me some 
instructions on how to reset/re-activate this in case I'm missing a trick?? At 
the moment, every time the phone asks for the code from my IPad the IPad just 
comes up with the word "(null)", which I'm sure can't be right, and every time 
I've entered it into the phone (exactly as it's written on the IPad) it's not 
been accepted. 

So if anyone has any ideas at all/suggestions as to how I can get over this and 
get my text messages being sent to my IPad again as they were before the update 
it'd be very very much appreciated. 

Many thanks.

Can anyone tell me the best way to open and edit a PDF file on an IPad??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

The subject line says it all. I have been sent a PDF file (an application form) 
which I need to open, fill in and return by e-mail. I'd really like to be able 
to open/edit/fill in the form on my IPad. So was wondering if people could 
recommend what the best way of doing this would be/could send me some 
instructions?? Alternatively, if there's no way I'll be able to do it on my 
IPad, does anyone know how I can do it on my Mac? 

Many thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

Re: Can anyone tell me how I can makes sure that all my contacts are properly synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts please?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

This all sounds really good. So is this CardDav something you have to get from 
the App Store?, or is it already available on my phone or IPad? Is there any 
chance you could e-mail across some full/idiot-proof instructions so I can get 
it set up to sync everything to Google Contacts? Also, what would be the 
equivalent that I'd need for Android?, as I have an Android tablet too. 

Many thanks for all your help with this.

Hi all 

Thanks for the information I've just looked for CardDav in the App Store and 
it's not there. The only one remotely similar is something called All Sync 2. 
Any ideas? Has anyone heard of this app?

How can I ensure everything is winked onto all my Apple devices, + how can I merge all my contacts?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just wondering if anyone can help me with the following questions. 

First, when I updated my IPhone and IPad to the latest software, in both 
instances my Mac announced that I'd got purchased items on my devices which 
hadn't been transferred to my library, and that I should do so. However, I've 
had a complete blank, so could someone please remind me how I ensure that all 
my devices (Mac, IPhone and IPad) are winked and that everything's "in the 
library"? Any help much appreciated. 

Secondly, I'd like to merge all my ICloud and Gmail contacts, as I now have an 
android tablet for work purposes, so I'd really rather all my devices (both 
Apple and Android) shared the same contacts than have duplicates etc 
everywhere. Does anyone know how I can do this? Again, any help much 
appreciated. 

Many thanks.

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Thanks for this information. It's extremely helpful. So my next question is, 
bearing in mind that my Gmail account has been set up on my phone for ages 
(years/since I had it), where do I go to check/make sure that this CardDav 
function will work? Do I need to change the settings on the phone itself or do 
I need to go into my Gmail account from the Internet and change it from there?

Many thanks.

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I'm wondering if anyone can help me. I want to try to make sure that all my 
contacts are completely synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts, so that 
they will all work regardless of what device I'm using and so that they're all 
up-to-date/contain the same information and there aren't loads of duplicates 
about. Does anyone know how I can do this?? I'm sure there's a way, but I've 
just had a total blank. 

Any help would be much appreciated. 

Many thanks.

Re: Text forwarding

Hi 

I am having exactly the same problem between my SE and my IPad Mini 4. When I 
select the IPad on my SE the SE tells me to enter the code shown on my IPad, 
but no code appears. Any ideas where I'm expected to find this mystery code 
would be much appreciated, as I do want to have my texts forwarded from my SE 
to my IPad?? 

Thanks for any help.

Re: Iphone 6 unexpected shutdown

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I am still having this exact same problem with my IPad Mini 4. I tried 
everything - erasing all the content, resetting network settings, restoring it 
as new etc, but it's still persisting in shutting down with no warning (not 
even a low battery alert). I took it to an Apple Store who ran diagnostics and 
said that, apart from the unexpected shut-down history, all was fine. However, 
it's still continuing to do this, so I may well go back to see if I can get it 
replaced.

Re: App Store and itunes

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

That message and agreement seems to be appearing regardless of whether you've 
updated or not. I've not updated my IPhone yet and the message still came up 
when I went to update some apps. The agree button was just at the bottom of the 
screen and wasn't a problem to find.

If you have any questions or concerns 

Serious battery drain in IOS10.2 - can it be fixed or is it a bug?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I recently upgraded both my IPad and my new IPhone to IOS10.2, and since doing 
so have noticed that my battery is draining very very quickly, particularly on 
my IPad (I suspect that this is because, unlike the phone, there's no low power 
mode on it). I've a number of friends who are also experiencing this problem, 
so I know it's not specific to my devices. So I was just wondering whether, 
apart from the standard battery-saving measures that I've always used/are 
recommended, anyone knows of a way of fixing this problem? Or is it an IOs10 
bug which Apple needs to fix for everyone? On my IPad it doesn't even announce 
when my battery's getting low any more - it just shuts down with no warning 
(again, I know other people that this is happening to). 

So, if anyone's got any ideas on this they'd be much appreciated. Otherwise 
let's hope the next software update fixes it. 

Thanks.

Re: Serious battery drain in IOS10.2 - can it be fixed or is it a bug?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi 

I tried doing a "reset all settings" on the IPad at the weekend, but it still 
doesn't seem to have solved it. Does that have the same effect as "reset 
network settings" or do they do slightly different things?

Query re deleting individual messages from e-mail threads since updating to 10.2

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I'm hoping someone might be able to advise me on this one. I've just updated my 
IPad to IOS10.2. There's a lot I like about it, but I'm having a problem with 
mail that's really bugging me. Sometimes, when I receive a long e-mail thread 
of messages some of the messages in the thread aren't really of use to me, so I 
want to get rid of them and just keep the ones I need/which are of help. In 
previous IOS versions I could get rid of individual messages from a thread, but 
in 10.2 I don't seem to be able to do this at all. All I seem to manage is to 
move the entire thread to the trash, which isn't what I want. If anyone has any 
advice about how I can solve this issue/how I can just get rid of specific 
messages from a thread it'd be much appreciated. 

Many thanks for any help.

Please can someone remind me how to reboot my phone??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Was wondering if anyone could help me. I upgraded my IPhone to an SE tofay. 
I've installed 10.2, and was trying to reboot my phone having completed the 
update, but nothing seems to be working. I've tried what I always used to do 
(holding the power & home buttons down together) several times, but with no 
success. So has the method of rebooting changed, or should I just keep 
persisting with what I'm doing?? 

Also, on the subject of IPhones, what's the recommended charging time for them 
now?? Is it a good idea/ok to leave them charging overnight or not?? My reason 
for asking is that, when I tried to trade in my old phone they tried to nock a 
load of money off because they said they could see pixelation, which they 
blamed on me overcharging the battery. So what is best charging practise?, as 
if that is the case then I don't want to ruin this phone too! 

Any advice most appreciated. 

Thanks.

Can someone give me some advice about how to restore text message forwarding between my I-devices please?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Sorry for the cross-post, but I'm in quite significant need of help on this 
one. I received a very dodgy message this morning saying that my Apple ID had 
been temporarily suspended, and to sort it out I should log into the link given 
in the message. I was fairly certain that the message was definitely fake, as 
the spelling/English in it was absolutely atrocious. Nevertheless, I decided to 
completely reset my password etc etc just to be sure. I've done this, but 
despite best efforts (resetting the devices etc etc) I can't now get my text 
message forwarding to work for either my IPad or my Mac. So, if anyone has any 
help/suggestions/instructions on how I can go about restoring this I really 
would be most grateful. For example, do I need to go into anything on my Mac to 
make sure that all my devices are synced or named correctly so that they can 
all communicate to each other properly. 

I really don't know, and am desperately scrambling around for ideas as am 
stumped. So, as I said, any help much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Does anyone know how to post videos onto Twitter from an IPad using VO??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

My apologies for the cross-post, but I'm hoping someone might be able to answer 
this one. I've got some videos on my IPad which a friend sent me. I'd very much 
like to put them on Twitter, but can't work out how to do so using VO. Facebook 
is no problem at all, as I just select the videos I want, click the share 
button, and Facebook is there on the list. Easy. However, Twitter doesn't 
appear at all, so I'm a bit stumped as to how to post my videos/achieve the 
same result. There must be a way, as I've seen plenty of videos on there. So if 
anyone's got any ideas at all how I can post my videos to Twitter using VO it'd 
be much appreciated??. 

Many thanks for any help anyone can give.

Re: Does anyone know how I can link my Twitter and Facebook accounts so I can simultaneously post to both?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Thanks so much for all this useful information. How do I go about linking them 
through twitter.com?? I've tried going into settings and apps, but nowhere is 
voiceover saying anything about connecting to Facebook. So if someone could 
send me some totally idiot-proof instructions on how to do this with voiceover 
I'd be so grateful. I've managed to do it the other way round (Facebook to 
Twitter), and that was very very easy. However, Twitter to Facebook doesn't 
appear to be as straightforward. 

Any help much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Does anyone know how I can link my Twitter and Facebook accounts so I can simultaneously post to both?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Apologies for cross-posting, but I'm hoping someone might know the answer to 
this/be able to help me. I have a Twitter and a Facebook account, and I'd like 
to be able to link the 2 so that I can simultaneously post to both. I'm using 
IOS. A friend told me that it was possible, and gave me the name of an app, 
TweetCaster, but when I downloaded it I found it terribly inaccessible with 
VoiceOver. I then tried to look up how to do it online, and managed to totally 
confuse myself with all the different methods that came up. So I was wondering 
if anyone knew/could tell me of the best way/how I can go about linking my 2 
accounts? Do I need to do it through websites?, or is there a more accessible 
app that will allow me to do so? 

Thanks for any help anyone can give. 

Eleanor

Does anyone know what the most accessible app is for using Facebook with VO?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I'm seriously thinking of setting up a Facebook account. However, before I do 
so I wanted to find out from people what they think the most accessible app for 
using Facebook with VO is? For example, when I tweet I always use Twitterrific. 
So is there something similar that works with Facebook?, or is the native IOS 
Facebook app accessible with VO? 

Also, if anyone has any other good hints/tips/advice for me when I'm setting 
this account up that would also be very much appreciated. 

Many thanks.

Re: Brailliant BI 14

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Mary 

Yes, it does have on board internal storage capacity. There is a switch with 2 
settings. If you have it to the left then the BI 14 runs its own internal notes 
application, allowing you to make as many notes whenever and wherever you like. 
You can then also ask the Brailliant to sync these notes to your I-device and 
vice versa. If you flick the switch to the right then it just becomes a Braille 
display/keyboard for your I-device. You can’t attach anything like a memory 
stick to the Brailliant in order to provide external storage, but that’s not 
the point of the machine - the point of it is to be able to make notes really 
easily on the go without having to carry a lot of large equipment around with 
you.

Re: Brailliant BI 14

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Mary 

Yes, I’ve seen and have purchased a Brailliant BI 14. It arrived a couple of 
weeks ago, and I’ve been getting on well with it. It can either act as a 
Braille display and keyboard for your I-device, or it can act as a totally 
independent note taker. 

Where interacting with an I-device is concerned, it seems to work very well and 
does everything you’d expect it to. I do have a couple of criticisms of it, but 
they are more like things that HumanWare could do to further improve the device 
as opposed to actual criticisms, and I’ll certainly be feeding those back. 

>From the point of view of the independent notetaker, yes, it works, and yes, 
>you can delete notes etc. You can also then sync your notes to your I-devices 
>if/when you want to. Not sure I’d go writing an essay on it, but in terms of 
>ease, portability, and use on the go then yes, it seems good. 

I was meant to be having a day’s training on it, but that’s been postponed for 
now as the units have been recalled (something to do with the battery). So 
hopefully once that’s happened I’ll know more about it.

Re: Brailliant BI 14

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Ed 

I completely agree with all your points. 

The biggest improvement I’d like to see would be the ability to unlock/wake 
your IOS device from the Brailliant, rather than it always having to be the 
other way round - that got really frustrating!! 

On a slightly different point, but still one related to Braille 
notetakers/displays. I’m currently writing a document in KeyWord on my 
BrailleNote Touch, and I desperately need to put some page breaks in/force the 
document to start a new page. I can’t work out for the life of me how to do it. 
So if anyone knows would be much appreciated. 

Thanks. 

Eleanor

Re: Brailliant BI 14 display

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi Mary and Chris 

If it’s any help, I ordered and have received a Brailliant BI14, and am pleased 
with what I saw. I like the size and weight of it - it makes it very portable 
(much more so than other displays out there). I also really like the 
stand-alone note taking feature on it - it just means you can get it out and 
make notes really quickly/easily and then link those notes to your apple 
devices when you have time/if you want to. Also, obviously, I like the fact it 
will act as both a display and keyboard for my IPhone and IPad. There are a 
couple of things I’d like to see improved, and I hope HumanWare will take them 
on board.

Query re setting up the Amazon Echo Dot 3rd generation with my IPhone/IPad, and particularly how you set a radio alarm on it??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I’m wondering if anyone can help me with this one. I received an Amazon Echo 
Dot 3rd generation at the weekend for my birthday. Now, I absolutely love it, 
but I’m concerned I’ve not set it up properly or not linked something from the 
Alexa app properly etc, as one of the things I really want to use it for 
immediately isn’t working properly, and I just don’t know why. 

Basically, I want to set an alarm on it to wake me up in the morning with my 
favourite radio station. However, it won’t/doesn’t seem to want to let me use 
the radio station I want to, and yet it’ll set it perfectly happily to any 
other station I ask it. Where it gets even stranger is that it’ll quite happily 
play the station I want to use as an alarm. So I don’t understand what I’m 
doing wrong? So any help/ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated? Are there 
things I need to check on the Alexa app, the Dot itself, or any other apps on 
my phone?? 

Also, I thought I’d managed to link my Google calendar to the Dot, but again, 
it’s not letting me use all the functionality that it’s meant to have. For 
example, it might let me add an event, but it won’t let me move one. So again, 
any advice on how I can check that everything’s properly linked/connected would 
be much appreciated. 

Finally, if anyone has any suggestions on how I can double-check that my Dot’s 
set up correctly, things I should do, things it would be worth me 
enabling/linking, etc I’d be really grateful. I think I could really make use 
of the device, but to be honest, I feel like I don’t have a clue what I’m doing 
with it, especially with it playing up like this when I thought I’d done 
everything ok. 

Thanks for any help you can give.

How do you ensure that Voiceover’s turned on so you can set up a new IPad?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone can help with this, as I’m asking on behalf of a friend. He has 
a brand new IPad Mini being delivered to his home on Friday. He’s a voiceover 
user (no sight at all). So, when he gets the IPad out of the box how can he 
turn Voiceover on so he can go through the set-up process/know what he’s doing 
and what’s going on? He doesn’t really want to go into a shop unless he really 
has to, as that’s quite a trek for him. So if there’s a way he can turn VO on 
so he can do the set-up himself at home that’d be great. 

Any help much appreciated. 

Thanks.

How can I ensure that all my photos are syncing properly across all my devices, particularly my Mac?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone can help. I am currently trying to make sure that all my photos 
are syncing properly across all my devices (IPhone, IPad and Mac) as well as to 
ICloud. The IPhone and IPad aren’t so much of a problem, as I know that ICloud 
Photo Library’s on. However, as for my Mac, I don’t have a clue what I’m doing. 

So, firstly, how can I check that my Mac’s properly connected to ICloud? 
Secondly, how do I check that ICloud Photo Library’s turned on on my Mac? 
Thirdly, how do I use the photos app on my Mac? Fourthly, how can I ensure that 
all the photos I have do actually sync across all my devices?, including when 
my IPhone or IPad are actually plugged into my Mac? 

So sorry for all the questions, but I really want to get this sorted out and 
get everything working in harmony again. So any help would be much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Query re what settings I ought to check having upgraded to a new IPhone

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I’m hoping someone can assist me with this. I’ve just upgraded to an IPhone 8. 
The shop transferred my sim card, and most things seem to have come across ok. 
However, I’m just after any advice as to what settings people think I 
should/it’s important to check on my new phone to make sure they’ve all 
transferred correctly?? I’m particularly interested in saving as much power as 
possible, and also in protecting my privacy. So any advice would be veery much 
appreciated. 

Secondly, how do I go about changing the name of my IPhone, both on my phone 
and my Mac?, so that I know it’s my new phone I’m dealing with? And how do I go 
about removing any old phones from my Mac? 

Thirdly, there are some apps on this phone that I definitely don’t want 
on/won’t use, and I thought that if I removed them I might save myself quite a 
bit of storage space. So how/what’s the best way of doing this? 

Finally, how do I check that text message forwarding is working correctly 
between my new phone and my IPad/Mac? 

Sorry for all the questions, but any help would be much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Some queries re ICloud photo library and Google photos - can I sync them/get them to work together?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Firstly, thanks to those who replied about what settings to check on my new 
IPhone - was much appreciated. 

I have a couple of queries regarding ICloud photo library and Google photos on 
my devices (IPhone and IPad). I’d very much like to be able to get the 2 
libraries to work in sync, but am not sure if this is possible. So is there a 
way of doing this?, and if so what is the procedure? 

Also, I seem to be having some issues with photos that I’ve taken coming across 
from ICloud onto all my devices. So, for example, when I have a photo taken on 
my phone it goes straight onto ICloud with no problems. However, when I come to 
look for that same photo on my IPad it’s not there/never seems to come across 
for some reason. Exactly the same thing happens when someone sends me a photo 
via IMessage - I can save it to ICloud photo library on my phone, but it never 
appears on my IPad. Does anyone have any idea what the reason for this might be 
and how I might be able to sort the situation so that I have/can access all my 
photos on all my devices?? Any help would be much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Re: What SIM Card is used by second generation iPhone SE was RE: Apple Newsroom: iPhone SE: A powerful new smartphone in a popular design

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Whilst we are on the subject of SIM cards, I have a question. I currently own 
an IPhone 8, but am considering ordering a new IPhone SE. So would I simply be 
able to swap my IPhone 8 SIM card directly into my new IPhone when it comes? If 
so, how easy would this be to do for someone with no sight? 

Also, when it comes to setting up the new phone when I first get it, how can I 
ensure that voiceover is on from the word go to help me with the set-up??, 
otherwise, frankly, I’m stuffed as I can’t see the screen at all. 

Any idiot-proof instructions on both counts really would be greatly 
appreciated. 

Many thanks for any help anyone can give.

Some important queries re setting up a new IPhone SE from scratch - all help appreciated

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

After any advice/help from people on this list with this situation. I’ve 
ordered a new IPhone SE, and have just had confirmation of its despatch. So 
have some questions re setting it up which I’m hoping people might be able to 
assist with. 

Firstly, I know this sounds somewhat daft, but if anyone could e-mail me some 
idiot-proof instructions on how to set it up from scratch, including on how to 
get Voiceover started from the word go I’d be really grateful please?. I’m far 
more nervous about doing it than normal, probably because I know all the shops 
are closed, and sighted friends who would normally be able to assist me can’t 
do so at the moment due to the lockdown. So any step-by-step guide much 
appreciated. 

Secondly, is it better to set the phone up over the air?, or is it better to 
set it up through my Mac? I ask this because my Mac is currently away being 
fixed/serviced. So I just wondered whether it would make any difference which 
way I did it?, and if so whether I should wait for my Mac to return before 
attempting set-up? 

Finally, can anyone send me some step-by-step idiots instructions on how to 
swap my SIM card over from my currrent IPhone 8 to the new SE?? I’ve never done 
this before, and again, in normal times I’d happily get sighted help with this, 
but obviously I can’t do that right now. So any help appreciated. 

My apologies for all the questions, but I really don’t want to make a mess of 
this/muck it up completely/ruin the new phone/etc. So many thanks in advance 
for any help/advice that anyone can give me.

Urgent query re setting up my Mac and the log-in screen with VoiceOver

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Know this iisn’t IPhone-related, but it is Apple-related, so really really 
hoping someone can help with this. I have just had my Mac back after having to 
send it away for repair as it decided to crash/stop working completely. They 
appear to have done a clean install of Katalena. I have spent this evening 
re-setting it up with a friend. However, we are really struggling with 
VoiceOver. We went into system preferences and accessibility and enabled VO. We 
then went into users and groups, log-in options and accessibility options, and 
ticked the box that said about enabling VO from the start. However, this does 
not appear to have worked. Every time I now start my Mac VO literally says the 
word “username” and nothing more. It won’t tell me where I’m navigating on the 
screen or anything like that. So I literally can’t enter my password and log in 
myself. So was just wondering if anyone else has had/is having this problem 
with Katalena? Could anyone please send me a set of idiotproof instructions as 
to how I can set up VO properly and fix this problem please??? Any help really 
would be much appreciated, as what’s the point in having a Mac when VO won’t 
even speak to me to enable me to log in!!! 

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

Query re unexpectedly high home and locked screen and battery use on my new IPhone SE2020 - any advice appreciated

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone may be able to assist with this. Over the last couple of months 
I’ve been noticing unusually fast battery drain, both on my new IPhone SE2020, 
and also on my old IPhone 8. If it was just the IPhone 8 I might not be so 
bothered as it’s an older device, but I can’t understand the new SE doing/being 
the same. What has particularly surprised me is how high my home and locked 
screen use appears to be. Have never had this problem before. Have checked all 
the settings that are suggested on the internet to prolong battery life, and 
they all appear to be as they should be. 

So if anyone has any ideas as to how I can increase the amount of time my 
battery lasts, and, particularly, how I can get this stupid home and locked 
screen usage value reduced from the stupidly high value it says it is at the 
moment I’d be really really grateful!! 

Thanks in advance.

Query re how to transfer ringtones not purchased through Apple from my IPad to newly-restored IPhone?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone may be able to help with this. I was having a major battery 
drain issue on my IPhone 8, which wasn't resolving despite trying all the usual 
suggestions. So I ended up being advised to restore the phone, set up as a 
totally new device, and not transfer data through an ICloud back-up etc in 
order to avoid any possible rubbish/bugs/glitches being brought across. I did 
this and it's worked - IPhone is now wonderful. 

However, I had a significant number of ringtones which I'd downloaded from 
other people/sites (not got through Apple), and these haven't come across to my 
phone. They are still on my IPad. So was just wondering if anyone knew of a way 
I could transfer my ringtones from my IPad to my phone without transferring 
everything else on there?? 

Any suggestions/methods/step-by-step instructions on how I can do this really 
would be much appreciated, as really would like to get all my lovely tones back 
onto my phone. 

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give. 

Eleanor

Is anyone else having problems with photo descriptions linking to the wrong photos in IOS 14.3?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem? Up to fairly recently, 
when I've put descriptions on my photos, they've all been fine and have stayed 
with the right photos. However, since updating to IOS14.3 my photo descriptions 
seem to have gone mad and have started attaching themselves to completely 
random photos. So when I've thought I was showing someone one picture it's 
actually been something totally different. With sighted help I've tried 
re-labelling them all, but it's not worked, as the descriptions have just gone 
and relocated themselves again. 

So just wondered if anyone else has been having this/similar issues? If so, 
does anyone know of a way of fixing it? 

Thanks for any help in advance.

Re: Can I use my Amazon Alexa as a speaker for playing YouTube from my IPhone?, if so how do I do so??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Ok thanks. So are there any other settings I need to check before I try this 
then?? Only ask as I've never used my IPhone with any sort of speaker before. 
Sorry for all the questions, and thanks so much for your help.

Can I use my Amazon Alexa as a speaker for playing YouTube from my IPhone?, if so how do I do so??

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone may be able to help with this. Bit of a long story, so please 
bear with me. 

I'm currently trying to get my new Guide Dog used to/comfortable with the sound 
of applause. Someone suggested that there were good clips on YouTube which I 
could use, and indeed, there are. 

It then occurred to me that, if I could somehow use my Amazon Alexa as a 
speaker to play the audio from my IPhone I'd be able to have the sound at a 
much higher volume than my phone could ever hope to achieve. 

So I just wondered whether this might be possible? Is there a way that I could 
use my Alexa as a speaker to play these YouTube clips from my phone? If so, how 
do I go about setting it up/doing so?? 

Many thanks in advance for any help you can give with this, as I'm very much 
hoping it'll be of benefit to my Guide Dog and help her get used to/be a lot 
happier with the sound.

How can I transfer my data from my IPhone 8 to my IPhone SE2020 by connecting the 2 phones?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone can help with this. I have an IPhone 8, which I've had for 
years, and a new IPhone SE2020. I'd like to be able to transfer all my data etc 
straight from my IPhone 8 to my SE without having to go through my Mac. Someone 
said once that there was a way of doing it by connecting the 2 phones together, 
and that it was much more secure/reliable. So I just wondered if this was the 
case? What would I need to do it? And how would I go about doing it? 

Sorry for all the questions, but if anyone haas any answers/could give me any 
instructions I'd be really grateful. 

Many thanks

Can anyone send me a list of idiot-proof instructions for the gestures I need to know for an IPhone with no physical home button please?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Apologies for this, as I’m sure many of you will probably think I’m seriously 
behind the times. Basically, I’m getting a new IPhone as part of a job I do 
with/for my local council. Problem is that this new IPhone doesn’t have a 
physical home button. 

I’ve never encountered this before, as I’ve always gone out of my way to make 
sure that my phone has the physical button. However, this phone isn’t my 
choice, and I’m actually very nervous about getting it. 

So was just wondering if anyone could e-mail me a really idiot-proof list of 
instructions so that I can stand half a chance of managing to operate this 
buttonless phone?? Any help really really would be very much appreciated. For 
example, when setting up the phone in the very first place how on earth do I 
get VO to come on?? (Normally I’d just tripple tap the home button, and it’s 
sorted … but with this I’ve no idea). How do I go about switching apps with no 
button? How do I go about turning VO on/off with no button if I need to? The 
list is endless. 

So sorry If I’m coming across as a total idiot, but this phone doesn’t belong 
to me and I’m really really scared of making a total mess of it when I get it. 
So any help/lists of gestures/explanations of how to do anything, no matter how 
basic, really would be most gratefully received and very much appreciated. 

Thanks so much everyone.

Recommendations for a mini bluetooth keyboard to use with my iPad/iPhone please

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

I’m after a mini bluetooth keyboard to use with my iPad and iPhone. I don’t 
want a full-sized keyboard, as I’m a good touch typist and am used to small 
keys, +, I want a keyboard that can be easily transported taking up the least 
space possible. But that said, it does still have to be good quality/good to 
use and easy to set up. 

So if anyone has any reccomendations at all all ideas would be most gratefully 
received. 

Thanks in advance for any help.

How can I add my email account to my new Macbook using Voiceover?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

Hi all 

Hoping someone might be able to help me fairly quickly/easily with this. I have 
a new MacBook Air M3, which is fab. However, I can’t for the life of me work 
out how to add my email account to the system using Voiceover. When I open Mail 
it doesn’t automatically give me the option to do so. 

So was just wondering if someone could please send me some idiot-proof 
instructions on how to do so please?? 

Many thanks in advance for any help. 

Eleanor
