Re: Syncing Question from New iCloud Drive User
Mark, At this point my syncing questions are moot. I should have known that installing iCloud for windows was going to expect me to run the latest version of iTunes which I discovered today no longer runs on my system but instead returns an error dialog. I'm still not ready to give up the sidebar of iTunes 11.4 although I know it is inevitable at some point. I'm glad I made a full system image backup before installing iCloud for windows because I should have my system back like it was pre-iCloud when the restore completes in a couple of hours.

Re: siri opening apps
I've been getting this Siri unprefictibility a lot lately especially where opening apps and calling contacts is concerned. I am running Ios 8.3 on an iPhone 6 but I'm skeptical that the iOS version has anything to do with it. As Sieghard said, sometimes siri just doesn't work and I think it has something to do with an issue at the Apple servers.

Re: siri opening apps
Actually, I'm a big fan of the iTunes sidebar which was discontinued with iTunes 12. And since Itunes 12 was required for use with devices running Ios 8.4 or higher introduced with Apple Music, I'm holding steady with iOS 8.3 until I come across a more compelling reason to upgrade.

RE: siri opening apps
I'm still getting the unpredictability primarily with opening apps. I've found that if I go into Settings, General and turn Siri off and back on again, she'll successfully open the app the next time I ask her. This is a pain to have to do and it doesn't seem to stick before she'll be back to saying "I don't see that app on your device" or some such thing. I'm not convinced it's an iOS version issue either but I sure wish I could figure out what causes this and come up with a workaround.

RE: How to transfer Somethig Else games to iTunes to be coppied to my new iPhone (when I eventually get it)?
Ari, I'm re-posting Mark's original message on this subject which was titled How To Backup Your Third-Party VoiceOver Accessible iOS 9.x Apps and sent Fri 10/30/2015 9:32 PM. You can find his message following my signature. Alan Lemly Hello All, I am cross-posting this to both V iPhone and Mac Visionaries. NOTE 1: This document assume that you do not use the automatic app update feature on your iOS device. NOTE 2: The following applies to those who use an iOS device in conjunction with iTunes on a computer, only. As we have all experienced, there are times when updates to an app can break VoiceOver accessibility. In iOS 8.x and earlier, assuming that one had previously synchronized with iTunes on a computer, if an update broke accessibility for a particular app, one could simply delete the newly updated copy of the app from the iOS device and then, connect the device to the computer and install the older version of the app, back to the iOS device. This was possible because in iOS 8.x and earlier, assuming app WiFi syncing was not enabled, the synchronization process included copying any newly downloaded app from the iOS device into the iTunes Library located on the computer. As of iOS 9.x, the synchronization process between the iOS device and the computer, no longer includes copying apps from the device to the computer. For those of us who rely on VoiceOver accessibility, this new process means that should an updated app break VoiceOver access, we can no longer restore an earlier version of the app using the same time-tested method as we have all come to enjoy. Before I continue, I urge all of you to please contact Apple and express how significant this change in the synchronization process affects those of us who are blind or low vision. The good news is that there is a simple workaround, so to speak, available to those of us who want to insure that we always have an accessible copy of an app. Just update the app in iTunes before connecting the iOS device. Updating apps, in iTunes on the computer, actually downloads a full copy of the app in the .IPA format which, just as always, can be copied to any authorized iOS compatible device. Confused? Don't be; the following example should help clarify the process: [BEGIN EXAMPLE] DAY ONE: 1. You're very happy with all of your currently installed apps. Your favorite app is the Candle Shore BLOG.com app and you don't want to lose VoiceOver accessibility to it, should it be updated. 2. You want to make certain that you have a full copy of this accessible version of the app on your computer, just in case any future updates break its accessibility. 3. On your computer, you open iTunes and navigate to the Apps area. You locate the Candle Shore BLOG.com app and, Click the Update button. This will update a full copy of the app on your computer to the same version that is currently on your iOS device. Remember, you will only do this if you like the current version that is on your iOS device. Because you like to plan for worse case scenarios, you decide to perform such an update for all of your mission-critical apps like those having to do with banking, GPS navigation, etc. DAY TWO: 1. Upon checking the App Store, on your iOS device, you discover that there is an update to the Candle Shore BLOG.com app. 2. You update the app and discover, to your dismay, that VoiceOver accessibility has been broken. 3. You immediately delete the app from your iOS device. 4. Now, you connect the iOS device to your computer and, from within iTunes, you install the older, accessible, copy of the app, back to the iOS device, just as you would have done in iOS 8.x. [END EXAMPLE] The bottom line is that if you are currently running iOS 9.x or later, you should manually update any important apps, on your computer, now, before any future updates break them.

In the AppleVis podcast, I thought Winston said you transferred content from your computer to voice dream on your iDevice using iCloud drive software on your windows and Mac computers.

Chuck, That's great. I found I got much better at it too after writing that tutorial and practicing a lot more with it.

After you type what you need with Fleksy VO, do a 2 finger swipe up and you'll be taken to the screen where VO will read your input and let you copy it for pasting to the app of your choice. You might try using the Fleksy Keyboard in minimal mode instead of with the spacebar present. This will present the keyboard more like the original Fleksy app. You can switch from the spacebar keyboard by doing a 2 finger swipe down in the keyboard area. A 2 finger swipe up while in the minimal Fleksy keyboard will switch back to the Fleksy spacebar keyboard. Good luck.

Re: Pause Recording In DropVox?
Ari explained below the documented way to pause a recording in DropVox while using VoiceOver but that method seldom works for me. I've found that putting one finger on the play button and then double tapping with another finger. Watt I call a split finger double tap, usually works fine to pause.

RE: Pause Recording In DropVox?
Well, Sieghard, since I use iTunes 11.4 a whole lot more than DropVox and since I have a DropVox workaround, I'll stick with iOS 8.3 a bit longer since I'm not quite prepared for the forced upgrade to iTunes 12.x required by iOS 9.x. I'll more than likely be getting a iPhone 7 next February provided it still has a headphone jack so I might just piggyback up to iOS 10. I'm really not a software Luddite but I loathe an upgrade that doesn't let me continue doing what I've mastered with my existing group of apps unless that upgrade provides a benefit that outweighs any cost from lost features or time spent re-learning things.

There you go, Alan, another good reason to upgrade. I just tried the triple tap in Dropvox and it seems to work reliably as well.

RE: Is anybody having any success with the Fleksy keyboard?
Chuck, I wrote a Fleksy Keyboard tutorial and a tips guide for the first-time Fleksy keyboard user in the middle of January and though they've released a couple of upgrades since then, I think most of what I wrote is still accurate. You can download the Fleksy Keyboard tutorial.html from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ubtto7ggk95vmjc/Fleksy%20Keyboard%20tutorial.html?dl=0 You can download the First-Time Fleksy Keyboard User tips.htm from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/476an5w5l60w3dt/First-Time%20Fleksy%20Keyboard%20User%20tips.html?dl=0 I marked up each of the above documents so that putting your rotor on headings and single-finger swiping will jump between sections. Some sections contain bulleted lists so single finger right swipes should jump between bulleted items. I've noticed a bit of improvement with the Fleksy Keyboard when manually typing in a letter at a time in the last couple of upgrades. The keyboard also seems to behave better when it's called up for input in another app but I admit, it can still be frustrating when doing this. It still has the annoying bug of repeating what you just deleted when you press the first letter of new input for those of us using VoiceOver. I've trained myself to ignore the first spoken thing following a deletion. I hope you find these helpful and post back if you have more comments and questions. Oh, and they've never made the Fleksy Keyboard anything as easy to use as the Fleksy VO/original Fleksy was for VoiceOver users in my opinion.

RE: Is anybody having any success with the Fleksy keyboard?
Chuck, I still find the Fleksy VO app very useful and still use it. I'm trying to make myself use the Fleksy Keyboard more often since like they say, practice makes perfect, or in this case, practice does give you better results. After you type what you need with Fleksy VO, do a 2 finger swipe up and you'll be taken to the screen where VO will read your input and let you copy it for pasting to the app of your choice. You might try using the Fleksy Keyboard in minimal mode instead of with the spacebar present. This will present the keyboard more like the original Fleksy app. You can switch from the spacebar keyboard by doing a 2 finger swipe down in the keyboard area. A 2 finger swipe up while in the minimal Fleksy keyboard will switch back to the Fleksy spacebar keyboard. Good luck.

Hi Alan, I read your tutorial, excellent job! However, I went back and tried Fleksy and had very poor results. It's first prediction is wrong about 99% of the time. Second or third prediction is usually the correct one. I do not know if this will improve over time, I seem to remember that it does have a learning future with in it. It is technically faster than the iOS keyboard, but it is very frustrating! By the way, I went back to my old Fleksy VO app, and tried typing with it. It got every word right!

RE: Voice Dream Reader 4 is in the App Store
Anna, I'm curious since I've not used iCloud much except for backup of my iPhone 6 via the storage option. I checked all the listings under Settings, iCloud and found nothing listed as iCloud Sync. I'm wondering if it's time to turn more of this iCloud stuff on but I seem to recall some problems with it a while back which they've no doubt worked out by now. Is the iCloud Sync only available with iOS 9.x since I'm still running 8.3? Or maybe it's located under one of the other options such as iCloud Drive. I thought it would be a good idea to turn this on before upgrading my Voice Dream app. Thanks for any suggestions.

RE: How to access digital booklet which came with iTunes album
Yes, mine came with the album download as well but wasn't listed under the music app no doubt due to it being a PDF file and not playable music. I would have thought that such digital booklets coming with albums purchased on the iTunes Store would be easily accessible on one's iPhone but I could not locate it in iBooks or in any other app. I finally located it on my computer, transferred it to an appropriate Dropbox folder and brought it into Voice Dream Reader. That's a better place to listen to it than iBooks anyway.

Ignore my message: Help Needed Manually Updating Latest Versions of Apps with iTunes 12.4
List, Please ignore the message I just posted requesting assistance manually updating app versions to my computer using iTunes 12.4. I wasn't fully checking the screen for an update button with focus placed on the app containing the update. I just successfully updated my Dictionary app and I apologize for the false start. Alan Lemly Hello Mark and Others, Now that I've updated my Windows 7 computer to iTunes 12.4 and updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 9.3.2, I've gone back and reviewed the older posts discussing how to manually upgrade app versions to one's computer using iTunes now that this is no longer automatically done with iOS 9.x. I believe Mark Taylor posted the original message about this last October and I believe Anna Dresner has also commented on it. Here is my current issue which I haven't been able to resolve by following those posts. A number of app upgrades showed up in the Apps Store after I upgraded to iOS 9.3.2. I suspect these weren't previously available to me since I was running iOS 8.3. I upgraded a handful of these on my iPhone. One of these upgrades was to Dictionary Pro version 5.1 by Farlex so I now have version 5.1 of this app on my iPhone but have version 4.5 of it in my iTunes library on my computer. With my device disconnected from my computer, I go into apps within iTunes, select the Updates button at the top of the screen, and get a grid view of the apps in my library which I assume have available updates. This is where I run into a problem because I'm not seeing any way to manually update them on the computer. I get no option to do this when right clicking or calling up a context menu when on the Updates tab with the app selected. I also get no such option to update it when I place focus on the My Apps tab, view them as a list, and place focus on the ones I want to manually update. I know Mark's original post instructed us to start iTunes without a device connected, go into Apps, and manually update those for which you wanted to get versions transferred to your computer. I just can't figure out how to do this. I don't know if this has changed with the recent iTunes 12.4 upgrade but I sure would appreciate any help with how to do this. I did note that a new app I had downloaded to my iPhone did transfer into my iTunes library on my computer. Only the existing apps already there for which I grabbed newer versions on my iPhone didn't automatically transfer. Thanks in advance for any help.

RE: iTunes SideBar, Anyone?
Hi Sieghard and others, I know others have commented about accessibility issues with the new iTunes 12.4 for Windows but my comments below reflect my using it with ZoomText and my remaining vision. Music appears to be the default media selected at the top of the sidebar. This control is actually a drop-down box that when entered, opens to present Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Apps, Books, and Tones which were simply listed in the old sidebar. ZoomText announces these after pressing enter and arrowing down the list but it is slow and inconsistent in doing so and I wonder if the other screen readers might be having some accessibility issues with this. When your iDevice is connected via USB cable to your computer, a control for it will appear just to the right of the media drop-down box. When it has focus, below it in a stacked list will be Summary, Apps, Movies, Music, etc. which in iTunes 11.4 were presented as tabs or buttons much like column headings across the top of the screen. I'm still playing with the easiest way to access these items since the arrow keys seem extremely sluggish on my system. The mouse appears the quickest way for those with vision and the tab key I think eventually gets to all the controls but it takes a good deal of tabbing. The only other thing I'm noticing with version 12.4 for Windows on my Windows 7 computer is that iTunes often stops responding and I have to go into task manager and close it in order to thaw out this freeze.

Mark, I'm glad iTunes 12.4 hasn't locked up on you. Maybe it's just my bad luck and it doesn't happen so often that I can't live with it.

I don't know about you but, as a low-vision user of Zoomtext, the first thing I do is to disable the album artwork column that is the default music Playlist view. Simply stated, when I select a playlist, I only want to see the list of songs in that list, without any artwork. To have a playlist be displayed without album artwork: 1.

RE: Weird itunes mystery.
Cheryl, I agree with you one hundred percent and I still use my Windows XP box to run older programs that I had no interest in acquiring versions compatible with Windows 7. I've always believed that you should run the operating system that you know and that runs the programs you need to get your work done. Windows XP still does an awful lot of that for me. That's great that your iPhone running iOS 9.x is still working with iTunes 11.4 but it is a bit curious based on what I've also read. Your iPod is acting more as I would expect but the inconsistency of the two devices is baffling. Good luck managing the inconsistency and I'll keep my fingers crossed that your iPhone and iTunes keep on working.

Can Anyone Duplicate This Audible Version 2.8 Issue?
I've been using the BARD Mobile app for most of my reading the past several months and have not used Audible in quite a while. I started an Audible book last night running the latest version 2.8 and have the narration speed set at 1.25 times. I'm a big fan of the Apple earpods and often use their remote button to rewind by pressing and holding it quickly three times. With this latest version of Audible, I'm noticing that after I rewind in this manner, the narration speaking speed is noticeably slower even though it is still set at 1.25 times. The only way I can get it to return to speaking at the set speed is to execute the narration speed button and close the screen that opens. I don't actually have to change the setting. I was wondering if anyone else can duplicate this issue and whether you've discovered a workaround? Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: Allaccess
Lelia, I don't know if menus retrieved using All Access are consistently formatted across the country or not but I just used it to fetch the menu for the Dairy Queen nearest to me. Although the menu I got appeared to have formatted visual headings, they were not marked up headings that could be accessed using the rotor. I then opened the item chooser by doing a two-finger triple tap and then typing blizzard in the text box which appeared. I was given a list of each menu item containing blizzard in its name and also given the menu visual heading of Blizzard Treats in the Item Chooser list. Double tapping on any of these would move focus to that item on the menu. This is the best way I can think to navigate an All Access menu provided you know the name of the item you want and don't care to swipe through the entire menu.

RE: Weird itunes mystery.
Cheryl, I wish I had an answer for you but I was under the impression that those running iOS 9.x had to run iTunes 12.x to get correct iTunes behavior with their iDevices for things like syncing and backing up. Since you were getting your iTunes 11.4 to sync okay before this problem arose, I guess something about my information was incorrect. I too have a desktop system running Windows XP but I'm transitioning to another desktop system running Windows 7 which is the one on which I run iTunes. I ran iTunes 11.4 on my Windows 7 system until day before yesterday when I upgraded it to version 12.4 since I was finally ready to upgrade to iOS 9.x and believed iTunes 12.x was required to get correct functionality between iTunes and a device running iOS 9.x. As Richard suggested, maybe Apple Accessibility will be able to help but I suspect they're going to start that upgrade your iTunes rallying cry when they learn you're running iTunes 11.4. I hope you're able to resolve your issue.

Okay. I guess I'm not familiar with how apps work in the Android world since what you're describing doesn't seem to require any app intervention.

I can confirm that in the bottom left corner of the native Podcasts app screen while an episode is playing is a playback speed button which VoiceOver speaks.

Any Problems with Recent iOS 9.3.2 Update?
Hi List, I've finally taken the plunge and updated my Windows desktop system to iTunes 12.4 which was recently released so that I can now upgrade iOS on my iPhone 6 from version 8.3 to the latest 9.3.2 release. Other than the one thread I've seen on a problem Wren had installing the upgrade, I haven't noticed any comments about it. Has anyone experienced anything negative with the latest iOS upgrade with respect to VoiceOver or other accessibility issues or with respect to once-working apps not working as well? I've gotten my iPhone fully backed up to iTunes and will do a full restart of it and remove any apps from the Apps Switcher before upgrading it via iTunes on my computer. The only thing I probably won't do is reset the network and I'll just ask for Sieghard's forgiveness on this because I know he is a big fan of doing it. I'm looking forward to finally joining the rest of you with an updated iOS. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

RE: How Do You Use iOS?
Sorry for my tardiness in replying to this thread but I've been on the road. Here's my list of apps I use regularly: 1. BARD Mobile. Far and away the app I use the most since reading takes up a lot of my free time. I also use Voice Dream Reader and Audible for reading but not as often as BARD Mobile. 2. NPR News and NPR One for keeping up with my favorite NPR programs. I also use my local public radio app for listening to local public radio programs. 3. I use the native Mail app more and more to keep up with my email. 4. The native Messages app for my texting and the Facebook Messenger app to text Facebook friends not in my telephone contacts. 5. Square Cash for sending funds electronically with no fees. 6. KNFB Reader for OCR scanning and reading. 7. Digit-Eyes for product scanning and maintenance of lists of products regularly purchased. 8. Dropbox for maintenance of files in the cloud between my computer and my iPhone. 9. DropVox for quick recording with my iPhone. 10. ZeroTap to paste input entered on my computer into applicable apps on my iPhone. 11. Mini Keepass to track passwords on my iPhone which syncs nicely with those passwords maintained on my computer with the Keepass application. 12. Google to get quick answers to pop culture questions that Siri seems much more inept at answering. 13. Dictionary app by Farlex for looking up words as needed and for its word of the day and other daily information including its 5-word matching game. 14. FlightView Elite for tracking flights and getting helpful gate information when flying. 15. Fly Delta when flying. 16. My bank and investment company apps are very helpful for tracking financial information and making credit card payments. 17. The native Stocks app for tracking stocks of interest. 18. The Fleksy Keyboard for on-screen input with my iPhone. 19. The native podcasts app for listening to episodes of subscribed podcasts. 20. iBlink Radio for other podcasts published by AccessibleWorld. 21. The native weather app to track local weather. 22. BlindSquare GPS for GPS features and simulating locations for upcoming travel. It is very handy for saving locations I am visiting in order to explore locations of interest which are nearby and which can be easily visited on arrival by saving them as POIs in BlindSquare. It also makes it easy to summon Uber to take you to these locations. 23. Uber and Lyft to get me where I need to go especially when traveling. 24. iMDB for getting information on movies, TV shows, and actors. 25. Sports Scores and Alerts for getting score notifications on my favorite teams. 26. Shiprack for tracking packages. It's easy to set these up by forwarding a shipment notification email to a Shiprack email address. 27. Disney Movies for syncing audio description for Pixar movies playing on a TV or other device. 28. Song Guru for playing music games on my iPhone for guessing the artist from snippets of played songs.

Hello Everyone, I am cross-posting this to both the V iPhone and the Mac Visionaries Mailing List: I was having lunch with a friend today at a sunny outdoor caf and, during our conversation, the subject of iOS and the number of apps we use on a regular basis came up. As we began listing our favorite apps, I once again realized how much iPhone and it s related apps have revolutionized my life in almost every aspect. Below I will list the apps I used today and/or within the last two days. In some cases I will list the name of the app, in others, I will only list the type of app. I hope you will contribute to this thread by listing the apps you use most often as I and others would like to get to know you and, perhaps, discover an app or two about which we can learn. Okay, here we go: 1. Clock: I use the iOS clock for wake-up alarms and in some cases, to time activities such as workouts or cooking. 2. Calendar: I use my Calendar for virtually all my appointments. Today, for example I was reminded of two upcoming doctor appointments and, of course, today s lunch date. I also used it today to schedule new appointments including a date with a person I met via an online dating app which I will list below. 3. Messages: I send and receive text/iMessages all through the day for everything from staying in touch with friends to financial activity notifications. 4. The Weather app: Even though we do not have much variation in our weather patterns out here, I usually check the weather at least once a day, before going out. 5. Financial apps: I use my financial institutions, including banks and credit card companies, apps to transfer funds, pay bills, and monitor account activities.

RE: Fleksy
Kimberly, A 2-finger swipe down in the Fleksy spacebar keyboard area will switch to the Fleksy minimal keyboard. This gesture will also insert a new line so you might immediately want to swipe left to delete that inserted line.

RE: two finger swipe up; was RE: Fleksy
Chip, You are right that a 2-finger swipe up generally invokes reading of the entire screen or page by VoiceOver. I guess keyboard app developers have some leeway with the use of gestures since a 2-finger swipe up on the Fleksy minimal keyboard will switch to the Fleksy spacebar keyboard. By the same token, a 2-finger swipe down in the Fleksy keyboard area will insert a new line and also switch from the Fleksy spacebar keyboard to the Fleksy minimal keyboard where this gesture in the rest of iOS causes Voiceover to read the remainder of the page from your current location.

RE: What is with Audible?
I have no idea whether any of the below comments will affect the issue Rose is having with Audible but since we're talking about Audible, I have some comments about it. 1. I'm not having any problems with getting books purchased from Audible and added to my library presented appropriately in the Audible version 2.13 app on my iPhone 6 running iOS 9.3.3 and they download to my device without issue. 2. I did note a couple of issues accessing the Audible website with Safari on my iPhone. The search button in the upper right of the screen is unlabeled and double tapping on it when it has focus with VoiceOver active does nothing. When VoiceOver is turned off, pressing this button causes a text box to drop down where you can enter your search text. I reported this to Audible Tech Support today. 3. The last time I tried purchasing Audible books on my computer running Windows 7 and Firefox, the button which is labeled either next or continue and must be executed to advance after you add books to your shopping cart was not displayed or announced by ZoomText with Firefox. I had to use IE 11 to complete my purchase. I've also reported this to Audible. 4. Audible telephone support has always been good in my experience and they can be reached at (888) 283-5051. 5. Be aware that at one point in time, you could access your Audible account with either a separate Audible ID or your Amazon ID. I'm not sure if that is still the case because at some point, I got the feeling I would be better off using my Amazon ID to manage my Audible content and switched to it. Make sure you are being consistent and using the appropriate ID for your purchases and your Audible app. Hopefully, Rose will get some help from Audible telephone support to resolve her issue.

Have a ton of NLS books but ... after a childhood and many adult years without ready access to more than a book or two at a time, I now tend to read two to three at a time, depending on which equipment, which subject and where I am when I have time to read. I know, I know, but being able to store 200 books on a 32 GB card on the Stream, more than 50 on my iPhone and about 20 on my old iPad ... it is so much better than waiting for the library to send you something, or series out of order.

Gervais Sent: Tuesday, July 26, 2016 10:29 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: What is with Audible? Hi Rose, I apologize if I am trying to figure out what is happening. Are you downloading the book from the Audible site from your computer? I know that in the past, I used to download them using the Audible Download Manager, which once I began the download on the site, the download manager would download the files and import into iTunes, at which point I would connect my iPhone and sync to the phone. I have long stopped this procedure as it got too complicated. So in an effort to simplify things, I now just go to the site, whether on my iPhone, iPad or even on my Windows machine, and buy them from there, but not download them. I then launch my Audible app on either my iPhone or iPad and refresh my library, at which point the new books appear and I can easily download them onto my device. I found this process much simpler and easier then having to download to my computer and sync afterwards. I am not sure if this is the same or if perhaps you have a Mac and Audible has a Mac App, not sure as I don't have a Mac, yet! I know that using the method I use to sync books to my Audible app, I've rarely had an book not sync. I think in the past three years, since I began doing all through the iDevice, I've only had two books not appear in my list. For those two books, it was just that their system, although it had noticed that I purchased those books, something went wrong when it tried to sync and behaved as if I hadn't bought them. At that time, I just called Audible themselves and they corrected the issue, and I tried once more and the app was able to see the books
Audible iPhone Safari Workaround to Search for a Book
Hello List, The other day I reported a problem with the search button when trying to search for a book using my iPhone at the Audible site in Safari. Firstly, the search button is unlabeled and VoiceOver only announces "link" when placing focus on it in the upper right corner. Secondly, executing the button while VoiceOver is active does nothing. Today, instead of double tapping the search button, I tried doing a double tap and hold on the second tap. This brought up a menu labeled Javascript at the bottom of the screen with options to open or cancel. Executing the open button causes the Audible search box to open with the keyboard displayed at the bottom for entering search text. Also, a new Audible version was released yesterday for those who might be experiencing problems with Audible on their iDevices. I loaded the new version which seems to work fine on my iPhone but I haven't tested it fully. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

I have the link to the Audible mobile store on my home screen. If I double tap that, then set my rotor to form controls, I can find the edit box within which to type whatever I want to search for, then double tap search and I'm good. No need to find some unlabeled buttons whose existence I was and remain unaware of.

Firstly, the search button is unlabeled and VoiceOver only announces "link" when placing focus on it in the upper right corner. Secondly, executing the button while VoiceOver is active does nothing. Today, instead of double tapping the search button, I tried doing a double tap and hold on the second tap. This brought up a menu labeled Javascript at the bottom of the screen with options to open or cancel. Executing the open button causes the Audible search box to open with the keyboard displayed at the bottom for entering search text. Also, a new Audible version was released yesterday for those who might be experiencing problems with Audible on their iDevices. I loaded the new version which seems to work fine on my iPhone but I haven't tested it fully. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

RE: Apps for keeping up with sports scores
Wayne, I thought that charge to extend the time for sports score app notification alerts applied in the earlier days of the app. I know I paid it at one point because it was necessary to extend the notification time for the alerts I set up which were end of game scores. I'm not sure if that charge still applies and you should check within the installed app itself instead of its description in the Apps Store. I know I've not remitted any more funds through in app purchases for Sports Scores and Alerts. Let us know what you find out.

One other question: in the more information part of the app's page in the App Store, there was information on the kinds of in-app purchases that can be made. IN the many purchases listed, there was one for unlimited alerts for 30 days and one for unlimited alerts for 180 days. Does this refer to scoring and other kinds of game alerts, or different kind of alerts altogether?

Chris, Thanks for clarifying this. It's been so long since I got the app and I know I paid at least once to extend the notification period and think I also paid to get rid of the ads when Luno went to the ad-supported approach.

RE: uploading music to the cloud
Well, not everyone wants to stream their music and $9.99 a month for Apple Music versus $24.99 a year for iTunes Match is not an insignificant cost difference. I'm not surprised if Apple has decided to combine these two since it will boost their revenue stream. Here's an ultimate guide to iCloud Music which discusses the various aspects of these two services: http://www.imore.com/icloud-music-library-ultimate-guide Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Wayne Merritt Sent: Saturday, August 13, 2016 3:20 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: uploading music to the cloud A correction on this: Apple recently announced that they are combining Apple Music and iTunes Match, and will be gradually fading iTunes Match out. If you are subscribed to both, then you will just have Apple Music, at least I believe that's right. Check some of the Apple tech sites for full details, suchas iMore or 9to5 Mac. I heard this about a month ago. For the end user, this means that if you are subscribed to iTunes Match then you won't be charged for another year. It also means that you get the same functionality with iTunes Match, such as being able to download songs and get copies of songs in the cloud, added to Apple Music. IMO, they should have done this in the beginning, but whatever. It makes more sense to me to have them both combined in one service.

Re: Uber X
Tom, I copied the below description of uber services after doing a Google search. I hope it's helpful and I'm pasting it after my signature. Alan Lemly What’s the difference between UberX, XL, UberSelect, and Black Car? DECEMBER 16, 2015 BY DOUGH 261 COMMENTS “Let’s Uber to the restaurant, and then get an Uber to the concert!” By now, “Uber” has become a verb meaning, “to request a ride from Uber,” and “get an Uber” is understood to mean the same thing. You already know that Uber is an on-demand ride sharing service, but you might not know that there are several types of “Ubers” that you can request. My promo code ‘cws7s2‘ works for all Uber services! The four levels of Uber service are: UberX, UberSelect, and Black Car. Each is a different type level service for different types of customers, so make sure you know what you’re getting before you “uber” over to your destination. UberX: The least expensive Uber service. Seats 4 riders. Drivers use sedans like Toyota Prius, Honda Accord. Known as UberPop in Europe. UberXL: Seats at least 6 passengers. An UberXL car will be an SUV or a Minivan. Higher fare price than UberX UberSelect: A luxury sedan that seats up to 4 riders. Expect a BMW, Mercededs, Audi, etc with a leather interior. Formerly known at UberPlus in some markets. UberPOOL: Share your ride with another person and split the cost. Only available in LA, SF, NYC, and Paris. Read more about POOL. UberBLACK (Black Car): Uber’s ‘executive’ luxury service. Commercially registered and insured livery vehicles, typically a black SUV or luxury sedan.

Anyone Having a Problem Searching the US Apps Store?
I'm curious whether anyone else is experiencing the problem I've had the last couple of days when searching for apps in the US Apps Store on my iPhone 6. On more than a couple of occasions, I've gone to the Apps Store on my iPhone, executed the search button on the bottom menu, typed the name of the app I'm looking for in the text box, and completed the process by double tapping the search button. Then, I get an interminable screen which says "in progress" and it never completes the search. This has happened on numerous occasions and I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue. Thanks. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Anyone Else Noticed Recent VoiceOver Changes?
I'm curious if anyone else has noticed a couple of VoiceOver changes that I became aware of in the past couple of days. I updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 9.3.4 last night but I noticed these changes while still running iOS 9.3.3. The first change is minor and concerns how VO speaks the minutes when announcing the time when they are less than 10 after the hour. I feel certain that before a couple of days ago, VO would say the o for zero before announcing the minute. For example if the time were 8:05 a.m., VO would say 8 oh 5 a.m. Now, VO is saying 8 5 a.m. Like I said, no big deal but I'm curious why they would change such a thing and I'm wondering if anyone else noticed it. The other issue is more annoying. When VO is reading my texts and emails I've composed back to me, the pause indicating punctuation such as a period at the end of a sentence seems to have greatly decreased or disappeared altogether. I've had to double check on more than one occasion to ensure that I included a period because VO read my text as if the sentences were typed without one. I've reviewed my VoiceOver settings to make sure nothing has been added to control this and could not find anything. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm using the Samantha high quality voice for VoiceOver if this makes a difference. Thanks in advance for your comments.

Rob, Thanks for the suggestion but turning off the use pitch change setting didn’t' affect my issue.

RE: Anyone Else Noticed Recent VoiceOver Changes?
While I appreciate your opinion, I've always preferred the Samantha high quality voice and the default lower quality one doesn't change the issue I posted about. In addition to my original post differences, I'm also noticing that my status bar now pronounces the number of wifi bars as weefee bars when I'm sure it used to say WyFie bars. And my battery charge now says 93 battery power instead of 93 percent battery power as it used to. Rebooting my phone or choosing the default voices doesn't change these new pronunciations and I'm surprised no one else is experiencing them.

RE: Anyone Else Noticed Recent VoiceOver Changes?
Rajmund, You're a prince and thanks so much. I always try to remind myself to put the rotor to something like headings or words so not to inadvertently change one of the other items it contains. I must have mistakenly set the punctuation to none because now that I've set it to some, I'm getting the proper pause at periods in my texts, wifi is being pronounced WyFie in my status bar, and percentage is being announced with my battery charge. When the time gets to a new hour, I'm sure the o will once again be stated for minutes less than 10 after. After three years, I was hoping to avoid such newbie mistakes but one must always be careful of the inadvertent rotor changes and recognize better than I did when you change one.

By that, I mean, the plastic on the actual cable, near the end that you plug into the phone, cracked open, allowing the inside to be visible. SO, I got a replacement off eBay, which, cost me �1.50, however, over 2 were sold. The cable arrived today, and, looking at it instantly told me that it wasn't a valid apple certified cable. But, no problems, or so I thought, it charged beautifully, until Thought I'd plug it to iTunes, and show a friend something. That's when reality hit me. At first, silence. Second, iTunes gave an error. Then, said an iPhone was detected, but it could not connect, (or whatever it says) please disconnect this iPhone, and try again. Did this about 5 times, switching between 3 USB ports of this laptop, for which, I have used the old cable to restore phone with. So, here's the question, is it possible that it is the cable, or would it worth trying again? PS. Its windows 10, on which, I have installed the update yesterday, and iTunes is detecting an update, but couldn't bother figuring out Microsoft edge, so that I could download it, hence the question.

RE: Looking for any way to put audio books on iPhone 6
Jerry, I'd agree with Sieghard that if you have mp3 audiobooks you're wanting to get on your iPhone, Voice Dream Reader and Dropbox are the easiest solution. You can copy the zipped mp3 books into an appropriate Dropbox folder on your computer and easily add them to Voice Dream using the app. I don't know if you're a US citizen but if you are, the BARD Mobile app is excellent for getting books from the NLS BARD service provided you are a citizen and have established a BARD account.

Re: How in the world does anyone use Ok Google on an iPhone
Arnold and others, I don't know if we're getting different results from Google but when I just tried saying okay Google, focus does move to a cancel button at the bottom of the screen but VoiceOver saying cancel didn't affect my Google search. I just asked my question after VO said cancel and Google answered me just fine.

Re: How in the world does anyone use Ok Google on an iPhone
I've found the Google app to be inconsistent in starting with the okay Google command. I didn't know that this inconsistency was due to VoiceOver since it usually works for me after my first successful search. I do my first search by placing focus in the box where you normally type your search terms, swiping right once and moving to the voice search control, and then double tapping. Google will sound a sort of chime indicating it's waiting for your voice command and it works fine. It is an extra step instead of saying okay Google but it is much easier than turning VoiceOver off. The okay Google usually works for me after I've done my first search with the voice search control. Good luck.

1. Place focus on the message you wish to forward. 2. Single finger double tap and hold. 3. A popup menu appears above the message and the last item on it is more which should be double tapped. 4. A marker will be placed next to the message which had focus to indicate its selection and a forward button will be available on the bottom right of the screen. 5. Double tap the forward button and a screen will open where you can indicate who the message is being forwarded to. Good luck.

RE: Apps for keeping up with sports scores
Wayne, I like Sports Scores and Alerts by Luno Software. I think I paid something at one time to get rid of some ads perhaps but it's listed as free under the iTunes US Apps Store. It does a very good job of notifications of the teams you've selected although like all apps that have many features, it had a bit of a learning curve. The developer has always been responsive to emails I've sent about accessibility issues and I've not noticed any of late.

It seems like this topic comes up each fall. I'm looking for an app to send me notifications of sports game scores, like for my favorite football teams. I have been using Yahoo Sports for the last year or two. It worked great for awhile and I got the notifications. However, earlier today when I went to look when some upcoming games were scheduled, there were several unlabeled buttons and other items on the screen. I realize that we are in preseason for the NFL, but I still would have thought that there would be a list of this weekend's preseason games. My wants are easy: free and easy to navigate; can send game/score notifications; and can let me set an unlimited number of favorite teams. I don't mind if there is a cap on the favorite teams, just so long as that cap is not 1 or 2 teams. I would also want a way to see a list of coming games and past games with scores, so even if a team is not in my favorites, I could still find it.

Re: KNFB reader
Krister and others, I'll add to Sieghard's already helpful instructions. Try getting a piece of paper you know is white with black text for scanning with Knfb reader. Place it on a table you know is dark in a room with good lighting. After you place the iPhone on top of the paper with the rear facing camera in the center of the page, slowly lift the phone to the height Sieghard suggested which is about 8 inches for me. Now place two fingers on the field of view button on the right side of the Knfb main screen. Gently lift one of those two fingers while leaving the other one in contact with the screen. The field of view picture should take using this split finger method with a bare minimum of phone movement. If your page has good contrast with its background and your lighting is good, I'm thinking you might get your first field of view report where all four corners are seen. You can use this same split finger method when taking the actual picture scan. Best of luck and please keep trying.

Thread hijacking was Re: Word Ladder was KNFB Reader
Jewel, I realize I'm not the moderator and I beg Mark's and Cara's forgiveness, but when you reply to another post and change the subject, you hijack the thread as you just did with this thread on the Knfb reader. Those of us who read email by threads as I do on my iPhone get messed up if we're following the thread you hijacked either because we're interested or we posted to it as I did. Even if you completely erase the thread history and totally replace the subject, the message is tagged in such a way that the posting history is still tied to the thread yet those following along by subject using a threaded email client will be out of luck since you've hijacked the subject. If you can't remember the posting address of the list, please copy it from a message to which you are replying, cancel that message, start a brand new message, and paste the address you copied into the To field. Now you can type in your new subject since you'll be starting a new thread. Thanks so much for not hijacking threads in the future.

RE: Gesture Changes with Voiceover and Zoom
And if you want to copy the last thing VoiceOver spoke to your clipboard, you'll have to turn zoom off since the three-finger quadruple tap is the gesture to do this.

Hello everyone, I could use some help, if anyone would be willing? I told you all earlier, that I purchased a couple of older Iphone chargers, and that I couldn't take them back. I learned from you all, what it was that I needed to purchase, in order to use the chargers. However, I can't seem to find them on Amazon, no matter how I search. It's getting rather frustrating, to say the least. I bought 1 a while back, in 2016. So I tried looking at my previous orders. But for whatever reason, that's not listed. Well nothing was, actually. Which I found odd. I was wondering, would someone be willing to go to Amazon, and please find what I need? Then just send me the link? I would appreciate any help. I don't want 1 from Apple. I just want 1 quite affordable. The cheaper the better really, as I need 2 of them. Plus, I am in the process of moving. So as long as they will work, this is what matters most. Again, any help would be very much appreciated. I am beyond frustrated!

RE: iphone 7+ questions.
Hi Simon, I'll answer your questions before going through all my inbox so my apologies to the group if this reply is redundant. Yes, the home button on the iPhone 7 turns VoiceOver on and off as it always has via a triple press even though the button is now haptic rather than a mechanical button. The lightning splitter made by Belkin and available from the US Apple Store for $40 provides access to stereo listening and all the functions of the remote button when used with Apple earpods. I've never used a stereo microphone with mine but I assume its full functionality should also be available.

I wonder if you happen to know the following. as the iPhone 7 home button doesn't actually click, can it still be used to turn voiceOver on in the normal way? if not, how does one turn voiceOver on on the 7? also, with these splitters, can they be used with something like a stereo microphone, or is the lightning connection on them purely for charging? I ask this, as I use my iPhone for recording, and the 256GB on the 7 would be really useful for that, but I normally use the lightning connector for my stereo mic, and the headphone connector for monitoring and/or better hearing voiceOver, but am not sure I will be able to do that with the 7 and one of these splitters, as no one seems to know at the moment. Simon - Original Message - From: "Sieghard Weitzel" <siegh...@live.ca> To: <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2017 6:56 AM Subject: RE: iphone 7+ questions. Hard to say what Apple will do regarding pricing, it depends on what size of 7 Plus you want (currently the options are 32 Gb, 128 Gb and 256 Gb) and it depends if you buy on contract or plan to buy outright. When new phones are released Apple often offers the older phone only in the smaller sizes so they may eventually drop the 7 Plus in 256 Gb once the new phones have been released. On contract I wouldn't be surprised if you may find some $99 deals although a 7 Plus in 128 Gb probably still would cost at least $199 on contract. If you plan to buy a 7 Plus you are only getting the last generation so you can always go on the Apple website and compare the price of the current iPhone 7 Plus and last year's 6S Plus, this should give you an idea of what may come, beyond this it's anybody's guess. The 7 Plus should support iOS at least through to version 14 or 15. Assuming Apple continues to count up by one each year, iOS 11 will be released this year (2017), iOS 12 will be next year, iOS 13 in 2019, iOS 14 in 2020 and iOS 15 in 2021. Below is a listing of iPhones starting with the 3GS in 2009 (the first with Voiceover) and which iOS version they were released with: 2009: iPhone 3GS with iOS 3 2010: iPhone 4 with iOS 4 2011: iPhone 4S with iOS 5 2012: iPhone 5/5C with iOS 6 2013: iPhone 5S with iOS 7 (first 64 bit) 2014: iPhone 6/6 Plus with iOS 8 2015: iPhone 6S/6S Plus with iOS 9 2016: iPhone 7/7 Plus with iOS 10 2017: iPhone 7S/7S Plus/iPhone Pro with iOS 11 I didn't list the iPhone SE which was released in March last year sort of half way between the 6S/6S Plus and the 7/7plus and which originally came out with iOS 9. The last one for this year is of course speculation as to the name, but rumours strongly point towards 3 iPhones this year, a "normal" 7S/7S Plus with a possibly new form factor and a new even larger iPhone with all the latest bells and whistles like an OLED screen, wireless charging and like the old 4/4S with a design which has glass both front and back. The iPhone 6 Plus, 6S Plus and 7 Plus all have a 5.5 inch screen, this new high-end iPhone which is rumoured to cost well above $1,000 US is said to have about a 5.8 inch screen and apparently this year it is the only one with OLED screen and wireless charging. The difference between the old home button and that of the iPhone 7/7 Plus is that the new home button really isn't a button at all, it has no mechanical part and dos not move/push in at all. There still is a "button-shaped" indentation in the screen which gives you the sense there is a button there, but it's just part of the glass and when you press it all you get is haptic feedback, a vibration similar to what 3D Touch feels like. Eventually there won't be a hoe button at all and maybe even this years new high-end phone could have technology where Touch Id works anywhere you put your finger on the screen and there are even rumours that things like the volume buttons on the side maybe touch sensitive areas instead of actual buttons. I think in a few years we all should
Re: How can I preview driving directions to another city?
Keith, I apologize but think I might have omitted a step with my Apple maps instructions. After selecting the route and double tapping the estimated trip time at the bottom of the screen, another screen opens with a double row of buttons at the bottom with options like gas stations, dinner, and you should double tap on details. This opens the list of entire trip instructions but again, the list seems to time out and return to the map which seems like a bug.

RE: Effective use of KNFB reader
Turab, I'd suggest you open the KNFB Reader app and on the main screen bottomline menu in the center, locate document type and double tap. This will open a picker item where you select between multi-column or single column document. My KNFB Reader seems to default to multi-column document type which works great when scanning something like a newspaper but not so great when you want the scanned page to be read left to right line by line, top to bottom. I believe you'd want the single column document type to get this result. Richard is right about considering a scanning stand but try changing the document type first to see if the results are ordered more as you expect. If you want to scan a multi-page document, place focus on the button just above the bottom right most button of select profile. The button just above it is batch mode is off. For scanning more than one page, double tap it and it becomes process multi-page document. Then you can proceed to take pictures of each page. Good luck.

RE: Help Needed with Calendar App or with Accessible Alternative
Sherrie, Thanks so much for these instructions for displaying all native calendar app events in a list. Making sure the list setting isn't selected when in month view as discussed in item 3 below did the trick. I will add that item 5 below needs to include the additional instruction that list view needs to be selected after drilling down on a day containing a calendar event which will then display all calendar events in a list. I'm unclear whether this list setting will stick and have to be unselected later in month view but I now know the workaround. Thanks again.

When I open the calendar I might occasionally have to tap on today to get to the current section. I saved the following instructions in my files because it works. Anyway this is how you get it into a list: Submitted by Rob on 11 April, 2014 - 06:17 Hi, One possible work around: 1. bring up the list of months. 2. Select current month (or another month where you know you have an event). 3. You should then have a month screen with all the days showing. Before selecting a day with an event on it, if the list button is shown as selected, unselect it with a double tap. 4. Having done that, Swipe through until you find a day where an event should show. For example, it might say Friday 11th April, 1 event, then double tap on that day. 5. All events that you have on the calendar should then show up on the next screen. If the list button is selected on the month screen, tapping on an event doesn't work. Hope this helps.

I've been unable to figure out how to do this with the native app and can only get a list of a single day's events.

I know Fantastical 2 is often praised here but I'd like to know if it will let me get a list of upcoming events for longer than a one-day period.

Creating New Calendar Events with Fantastical 2?
I have a question about creating calendar events for those on the list who use the Fantastical 2 app. I see that the iTunes App Store description of Fantastical states it has natural language parsing. This sounds like a feature related to entering new events by spoken word which brings up my question. Is it possible to take advantage of Fantastical's natural language parsing when entering calendar events with Siri? I know with one of the latter releases of iOS that apps can have a connection to Siri for input but I don't remember hearing if Fantastical is one of those. Do those using it to create events use dictation or type with the on screen or a Bluetooth keyboard or some other input device? If dictation is used, how well does it work?

Re: Dropvox Recording Offline?
Fazil, I'm not sure why you'd use Dropvox as your iPhone recorder if you don't want it linked to Dropbox but I'm sure you have your reasons. My understanding is that recordings you make with Dropvox are not uploaded to Dropbox and are kept on your device until you have network access. If you're concerned about using data, you should be able to adjust your Dropvox and Dropbox settings not to use data so that only your WiFi connection is used. Also, Dropvox has a setting from within the app to um link it from Dropbox but to me, this sort of defeats its purpose.

Re: How can I preview driving directions to another city?
Keith, I got the full text list of driving directions in Apple Maps after searching for a contact, double tapping on their address, and double tapping on the directions button. The first screen presented shows a map but has buttons at the bottom with miles and hours for the trip. If I double tap on one of those, I get a screen with a list of the complete trip directions. I did note that Apple Maps seemed to time out of this list and return to the map for some reason but I could tell that the entire trip was presented. I thought Google Maps did a better job because its list of directions stayed on screen and didn't time out. With Google maps, I also had to double tap on the estimated trip distance or time to get to the complete list of directions. The disadvantage of Google versus Apple maps is that Google doesn't have access to your contacts. I also wish they would let you share a directions list but I couldn't figure out how with either of them. I hope this helps.

Help Needed with Calendar App or with Accessible Alternative
Hello List, I'm fairly happy with the native iOS Calendar app since I pretty much manage my calendar events using Outlook 2010 on my Windows 7 computer and sync them to my iPhone 7 via iTunes. One thing I really would like to see with a calendar app is a list of upcoming events for say a week or a month. I've been unable to figure out how to do this with the native app and can only get a list of a single day's events. If what I want to see is possible with the native Calendar app, I'd love some directions on how to do it. If I need to get another app to do what I want, what recommendations can you offer? I know Fantastical 2 is often praised here but I'd like to know if it will let me get a list of upcoming events for longer than a one-day period. As I mentioned, I'm not as concerned with input capabilities of a calendar app since I intend to continue managing them with Outlook on my computer. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
