Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard Shortcuts on iOS

2019-10-03 Thread 'Teresa Cochran' via VIPhone
Hi, all,

I've started using an old K480 that my husband bought. I tried looking up the 
manual, and there's something on the Logitech site, but the actual table of 
shortcut keys it refers to is either not accessible or not there. Could someone 
tell me which keys are used for extended functions like insert, home, end 
page-up and -down, etc.? I can navigate well with the keyboard, but only 
without these functions.

TIA,
Teresa

Limited Music List When Choosing My Own Music for Pocket Yoga

2015-08-05 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all,

I'm trying to choose my own music for yoga routines in the Pocket Yoga app. 
When the music UI service pops up a dialog, it only shows the two most recent 
songs I've used for my alarm clock. This service always pops up a full list for 
the alarm clock, but doesn't do this for the yoga app. Is this typical of a 
third-party app's interaction with the music app?

Thanks,
Teresa

Thanks. That was going to be my next step. I really like that option: I like to

 Hi Teresa,
 
 Maybe this is because of all the recent changes to the music app. Pocket Yoga 
 may not have been able to keep up. I would suggest adding the tracks you want 
 to use for Pocket Yoga to your alarm sounds list, and then putting them in 
 the app from there.

RE: easier way to move apps on iphone

2015-07-15 Thread Teresa Cochran
You don't have to move icons into folders. You can simply stop moving them and 
lift your finger when you reach a position you want to leave them on. You can 
switch pages by moving the icon in a straight line horizontally to the edge of 
the screen and waiting for a page change to be announced. You can continue 
holding down the app in that position to continue changing pages.

If VO-K doesn't work for whatever reason, you can always use

For what it's worth, the Amazon basics keyboard has held up the longest of all

accessible gaelic language iPhone apps?

2015-07-14 Thread Teresa Cochran
I haven't found an app yet that incorporates written and spoken words. I found 
a pretty accessible dictionary called Teach Me Gaelic, which is for Irish. I 
also found a YouTube post of a BBC program on Scots Gaelic. It really also 
depends which language you want to learn. Welsh is from a different Gaelic 
branch than Scots and Irish, and Scots and Irish are different enough from each 
other that you might want to stick to one or the other. (We won't even go into 
Manx :) ) I think it would be great to have Irish, Scots, or Welsh voices in 
iOS.

there's a Scots online school in Nova Scotia that I found out about as well. I 
don't know if the apps they use are accessible.

Sorry I can't be of more help. I'd love to at least find a repository of 
translated songs.

Re: Can I read a bard braille book on my iPhone without a braille display?

For what it's worth, there are many more audio titles on Bard than Braille

However, I can understand if space is a consideration or you simply prefer the

 Unfortunately, it is not possible to read braille books via VoiceOver.  
 I wish it were.  I wish they would put a translation program into the 
 Bard app, so we could read braille books without having to have a 
 braille display, as one can do with some of the third-party players, 
 such as the Victor Reader Stream.  However, they seem to have no plans

 Hello folks,
 
 Is it possible to read a BARD braille book on my iPhone without having

 know that most braille books on BARD are in Grade2 Braille.  If I read 
 the word Published it will be read public%$.  However, if voiceover 
 does back translation to Grade 1 it would be read correctly without 
 the need to have a braille display.  I am wondering if this is possible!

Re: Apple Music goes official, free for 3 months

2015-06-13 Thread Teresa Cochran
Well, actually, I've noticed different music services have different 
collections. For instance, Spotify seems to have a lot more obscure folk music 
than Rhapsody. One of the things I'll be doing when I try out Apple Music is to 
look up some of my favorite older albums and obscure artists, and see what they 
have. Pandora seems to have the most radio features, allowing you to shuffle 
all your radio stations together, for example. So there are slight differences 
which may be important to some.

Re: Reading .brf Files With the iPhone

Both Braille input and output have three modes starting with iOS 8. There's 
contracted, uncontracted, and eight-dot. With a .brf file, you should  use 
8-dot, since these files are all upper-case.

With your capitalization example, it looks like you're using Unified English 
Braille. If you want US grade 2, you can set this in Accessibeality, Voiceover, 
Braille. Unified English Braille will be used increasingly in the US and 
Canada, and has different rules.

Re: More Paypal app problems: can't send payment

 The new website is a pile of shit. PayPal force you to the standard view, and

 Hi all,
 I'm giving up on the Paypal app. I tried to send a payment a couple days 
 ago, then again this morning. Both times, it wouldn't work. Finally, I just 
 went to the website and did it from there. Here's what happened, and, just 
 to be safe, at no point did I use braille input.
 
 I logged in and chose to send money. I entered (well, pasted, but same 
 thing) the email address, then tried to enter the amount. Before I could, I 
 had to choose the radio button for the payment type (friend/family or 
 goods). Only after I selected that would the app let me edit the amount 
 field. I typed in the number, then tried to hit next, but nothing 
 happened. I looked back at my fields… and saw that the email/phone field, 
 where I'd pasted the email address before, was empty. It turned out that 
 every time I wanted to edit a new field (amount, message, etc) I had to hit 
 a radio button or the app would refuse to bring up a keyboard for that 
 field. Each time I hit a radio button, though, the first field on the 
 screen was cleared out for some reason. Thus, I could never continue, since 
 editing any field effectively made me hit a button that the app took as a 
 signal to clear out the address field, and the app can't go on with no 
 address.
 
 All my apps are up to date, and I'm on an iPhone 5 with iOS8.3. Does anyone 
 have any idea why this would be happening? I don't anticipate using Paypal 
 much for this kind of thing, but it would be nice to have the option for 
 times I need it.

 Along the front panel, there are two keys on the extreme left and extreme

 right respectively. This is the same as space-dot-2 and space-dot-5. Then as 
 you move in toward the center you will find rocker keys. These are for 
 scrolling the page. One of them is for left/right page scrolls, like on the 
 home screen. The other is for up/down page scrfolls, like a web page or 
 email. I forget which is which at the moment. Then as yu continue to go 
 toward the center you will find two buttons with an indented center. Your 
 finger pad will easily go here. The left one is for escape, which is the 
 same as space-b. The right one is for play/pause. This is the same as a 
 2-finger double-tap. Then right in the middle are the 2 most center buttons. 
 These are only used as shift keys when you are in 8-dot mode. So, if you 
 want a capital L, you would press one of these keys p[lus dots-1-2-3. I hope 
 this helps.

Game Center Notifications Being Flaky

Hi, all,

I'm noticing that I'm not getting all of my Game Center notifications. With the 
Crossly game in particular, the badges aren't accurate, either. Anyone else 
having this problem, or is it time to reboot my iPod? :)

 Hello.
 Using the Braille Edge, and attempting to read Bookshare books in read 2 go,
 you have to be able to scroll up and down, instead of scrolling left to
 right.
 I am trying to find out the Braille command to scroll up and down by page,
 but I can only find a way to scroll left and right.
 I can find the standard bluetooth keyboard command, option up and option
 down, but am looking for the braille equivalent.
 Thanks for any  assistance.

Re: ARE YOUR KEYBOARD ISSUES COMPLETELY SOLVED!

2015-05-02 Thread Teresa Cochran
I was having this problem horribly until I updated to 8.3. I'm very glad it 
happens extremely rarely, and as othehs have mentioned, I just restart 
Voiceover. I did a number of things to my iPod because of other issues, one of 
which was to completely reset it and not restore from a backup. I don't know if 
it's the 8.3 update or doing the reset or both, but technology is strange that 
way, and it's hard to know which solution works when you throw several at a 
device at the same time, as I did.

Carol, here's hoping the Voiceover restart resolves things for you. :)

 I don't use my keyboard very often, but when I do it's because I really

 I have so far had two occasions when this has happened to me again and the 
 only way out appears to be to reboot the phone, turn off the keyboard and 
 start all over again.  As you don't know when this is going to happen, it's 
 still an inconvenience to me and I'm about to write Apple's Accessibility

 I really thought this was sorted and so was very disappointed when first I

I can't remember where I read this, but it was on one of the tekkie sites, like

Netflix regarding audio description. I don't have this device, and I don't know

 Hello,
  
 I asked this a couple of times by replying to one of the threads about 
 Netflix audio descriptions, but never received a reply. I am in Canada and 
 have a second generation Apple TV. I found this Dare Devils show and did also 
 sign out of Netflix on my Apple TV and then signed back in, but no matter 
 what I do I get absolutely no options come up when I press and hold the large 
 round button on the top of my Apple TV remote. I also listened to David’s 
 Podcast on Applevis, but my Apple TV surely behaves differently. I don’t even 
 see this option for descriptive audio in the Settings which some people have 
 referred to and hence assume you require a third generation Apple TV to have 
 this. I did go to software updates and checked to see if there were updates, 
 but my Apple TV tells me it is up to date. I just wanted to ask again if one 
 needs a third generation Apple TV for this or if people on here have been 
 able to do this with a second Generation device. I am of course not buying a 
 third Gen Apple TV now even though Apple has dropped the price knowing that 
 it is extremely likely that a new Apple TV will be released this year and 
 most likely will be announced on zJune 8 during the Apple WWDC.

Re: USING BRAILLE WITH IPHONE 6

2015-04-20 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, Carol,

I don't have an iPhone 6, but I always use my device in portrait mode. There is 
enough information displayed on the Braille display even in portrait mode. 
Voiceover adjusts and will display whole lines in Braille. I'm not actually 
sure if there would be a noticeable difference in Braille between portrait and 
landscape modes, except for some of the options in apps, such as the scientific 
calculator, etc.

 Hi all,
  
 Just want to throw out one more question about using braille to those of you 
 who do this with an iPhone 6.  I intend to go that route fairly soon now but, 
 when looking at the 6S, I wondered if this was just too wide for me to be 
 comfortable in landscape mode.  Can braille be used in portrait and, if so, 
 do any of you prefer this?

Re: Blind Mice Mart

2015-04-20 Thread Teresa Cochran
They're mp3 files, which are in the low hundreds of megabytes on average, so it 
could possibly eat up a fair chunk of bandwidth. The only cost would be getting 
a sendspace pro account, which is about $10 US a month. Otherwise, it would 
take hours to download a file. This paid account is with Sendspace, the file 
manager that hosts the files, not with Blind Mice Mart.

The legality issue is probably a bit murky. The files are audio only, so that 
limits their desirability to the average sighted person.

Re: Blind Mice Mart

2015-04-18 Thread Teresa Cochran
The service used is actually SendSpace. You can download files for free, but 
the rate is very slow, about 5 to 25 KBPS. A pro account will allow you to 
download faster. Safari on iOS will open the file as it's downloading into a 
player. You have to sign into the Blind Mice site with a free Blind Mice 
account in order to access the movie vault.

 I hope this is a temporary problem. I did try restarting the Apple TV and

Two years ago, I decided to start using a passcode, and also the setting that

About a month after I set it up, I was sitting reading something, and noticed 
my Braille display suddenly lost access to the text. I had put the iPod next to 
my display on the table, and one  of the volunteers at the Blind Center I had 
gone to had simply literally lifted it. Before I could croak out a stunned 
Hey! it was long gone. I created a police report, but never saw it again. I 
had to buy another one. This time it doesn't leave my purse in public, unless 
it absolutely has to. I've also set up two-step verification and the same

 I would probably put in a number code if I were to dare to do it.  Is it the
 
 number type keypad that comes up, or are the numbers across in one line?
 I'm thinking you have to be able to do these without hearing what you've
 written, but could you confirm this please.

 Subject: I'm Tellin' You, Lock It Down
 
 
 Hello Everyone,
 
 As I have posted, I support several people on both iOS and OSX as both
 clients and friends.
 
 One of my friends, a fellow VoiceOver user, until now, has fervently
 refused
 to setup either a Touch-ID or PIN on her iPhone 6, despite my suggestions
 to
 the contrary.  She said she thought it was too much trouble.
 
 Today, she called me and told me that she, upon returning from a short
 vacation with her family, accidentally left her phone in her sister's
 house,
 approximately 800 miles away.
 
 While her sister will FedEx the phone back to her, my friend was afraid
 that
 her sister would and, according to her, most likely did, snoop on her
 phone.
 
 
 She truly laments not having taken the time to setup her Touch-ID and
 password.
 
 I'm tellin' you, lock it down before it's too late (smile).
 
 Mark

Re: crossword puzzle games

2015-04-04 Thread Teresa Cochran
In crossword puzzles, the words are all interconnected. For example, you might 
have the word  cat from left to right, there might be a clue for the word 
going downward, something like to pull gently. The first letter might be the 
t in the word cat, and it would have three letters, as this number is indicated 
in the clue. It would be t, u, g. Similarly, you might have a word going down 
from the c in cat as well. So strategy is key.

 Hi Michael,
 I have two word puzzle games to recommend, and I hope you can still find 
 them in the app store.
 
 The first is called Four Down, and it's a true crossword puzzle game and is 
 very accessible, or at least it was when I last played it.  I haven't seen 
 any updates for it in quite some time, so odds are that it should still be 
 accessible.
 
 The second game that I have is called Wordundrum.  This one is arranged 
 like a crossword puzzle in that you have words that run both vertically and 
 horizontally across the screen.  The main difference is that the objective 
 of this game is to fill in the missing letters to complete each word.  When 
 you get the app you're supplied with a starter puzzle pack, and you can buy 
 additional puzzle packs for a buck or two, and the puzzles range from 
 fairly simple to fairly complex.
 
 I've had good fun with both of those games and quickly got addicted to 
 playing them.
 
 
 Have fun!

It's not necessarily just doubling. I've gotten hundreds of repetitions of a

Re: VoiceOver and sound

2015-03-30 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, Harry,

The headphone and speaker have separate volume controls. With the headphoones 
plugged in, turn the volume up. Once you set these controls, they won't be 
modified unless you change them. Whatever is sounding will change when you 
press the volume controls. One exception to this, depending on how it's set, is 
the change with volume controls option in sounds. If this is off, your alert 
tones and alarms will not change with the volume controls.

Hope this helps. It can be confusing at times, but I do find Apple's 
implementation of volume controls to be quite clever.

 clients. I wouldn't say it's superior in every way though. Some people don't 
 want to have their email stored in the cloud. POP can also perform better. If 
 you're accessing your email from just one system then IMAP may not be the way 
 to go.
 
 BTW, as far as I know AOL, Apple, Yahoo, Microsoft and Google all provide 
 free email service. You may also want to check your ISP as well. I used to 
 have an account on Road Runner, and I now have a second account on 
 SuddenLink, which I use in the way you describe below Eleanor. I'm sure a 
 Google search will give you the list of the best free email providers. I 
 don't know which of these would have accessible interfaces though.

 Hi all
 
 I know this is a bit of a random question, but I'm looking to set up 
 another e-mail account as well as the Gmail one I already have. So was 
 just wondering  if anyone could recommend any other e-mail providers which 
 are as good/accessible as Gmail? I have my Apple training session this 
 afternoon, so any suggestions before then would  be much appreciated, then 
 I can get them to help me set it up. My main reason for having one is so I 
 can have a rescue e-mail for my Apple security, though I am also in the 
 process of trying to sort out 2-step verification for that (if that works 
 then as I understand it the e-mail address will become irrelevant).
 
 But nevertheless, any ideas on accessible e-mail providers would be much 
 appreciated, as it's always good/useful to know.
 
 Thanks.

 Many thanks.

Most Efficient Way To Move .brf Files From Dropbox to iCloud?

2015-03-27 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, folk,

I've gotten a little confused and seem to be going around in circles with this 
process. I have some non-NLS .brf files that I'd like to move from Dropbox over 
to iCloud. My iCloud account has much more space. I've got the Downloads app 
connected to Dropbox, but can't find an option to move to iCloud. The files 
don't seem to open in Voice Dream. Is there a way to move files directly from 
an app that will open them into iCloud? Some apps share, but won't open them, 
and some apps do the reverse. Access Note will open them, but won't share.

I know this sounds confusing, but that's the circular process I seem to be 
following at the moment. LOL

Ideas?

Thanks,
Teresa

Re: A Question About Reading Continuously in iBooks in iOS 8.2

2015-03-18 Thread Teresa Cochran
Speak screen uses text to speech to read the screen, but not with Voiceover. 
You could theoetically multitask using Voiceover in other apps while reading a 
book. I might think that you could do this with Braille only using Voiceover 
while speak Screen is reading the audio in iBooks, but I haven't tried this. It 
also allows you to read in iBooks and on web pages with the screen locked. if 
you get notifications, Speak Screen will continue to read and the book reading 
won'tbe interrupted. If you simply swipe down in iBooks, you're using 
Voiceover to read the book, but if you swipe after touching the status bar, 
you're reading with Speak Screen.

 Hello Marie and Everyone Who Replied to my Question:
 
 Thank you all for reminding me about the Speak Screen feature.  
 
 As it turns out, in iBooks, at least, Speak Screen results in two different 
 scenarios, the second of which is exactly what I want or, more accurately, 
 reflects the scenario in iOS 7.x.
 
 Marie, as you stated, if one first places focus on the Status Bar before 
 initiating the feature, the Speak Screen dialog box appears, reading 
 commences with the specified voice, rate, etc.  
 
 However, if, after enabling the Speak Screen feature, in ibooks, one merely 
 places focus anywhere in the actual text, then performs a 2-finger swipe 
 down, continuous reading will commence in the same way it did in iOS 7.x.
 
 Again, thank you all.  I couldn't have done it without you.

 Hello Everyone,
 
 When I perform a two-finger swipe down to initiate continuous reading in 
 iBooks, on my iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 8.2, I discovered that reading stops 
 when the display auto-lock kicks in.
 
 In iOS 7.x, this did not occur as, regardless of the system settings, the 
 display would remain on during continuous reading.
 
 Unless there is a workaround, in order to prevent iBooks continuous reading 
 from being interrupted, in iOS 8.2, I have to first disable the Auto-Lock.
 
 Am I missing something?
 
 All replies welcomed.

Re: braille screen input orientation

I don't know if this is a glitch or not, as I'm not sure what the intention 
would be if it was done on purpose. I do not pretend it's a slate. That option 
is extremely confusing for me. In tabletop mode, I simply flip my iPod so that 
the screen is facing me, then flip it back to tabletop mode, and this sets the 
orientation so that dots 1-2-3 are on the left, and dots 4-5-6 are on the 
right. For screen-away mode, I always find that it orients with the home button 
on the right.

 Hi. It seems that whenever the landscape mode is active for braille
 screen input, I have to hold the phone opposite of what it says. In
 other words, it says, home button to the left, but the home button is to
 the right, and vice versa. Also, the dots for the writing in braille
 seem to be pretty low on the screen, maybe I'm just not used to the
 braille input, which I'm not, i just turned it on last week. But with
 the weird landscape thing, I don't know why voiceover thinks the home
 button is the opposite of what I'm holding the phone. I have to reverse
 my braille letters, like a slate. I feel kind of dumb, really. i'm
 probably making it more complicated, but so far it's taking me much
 longer to type in braille than print, usually it's the reverse.
 
 help? Thanks, Dave

Re: any major bugs in new update?

2015-03-13 Thread Teresa Cochran
Oh, wow. That quick-nav toggling with the Braille display is definitely a come 
to mama feature. :) Now I'm even more excited about getting my Focus 40 Blue 
back from the hospital. I, er, dropped it and it got some serious injuries. 
I've already installed the update, and Voiceover definitely has more snap to it 
on my iPod Touch 5.

 Hi,
 
 I’ve had no trouble with either my focus 40 Blue Classic or my 
 RefreshaBraille with 8.3 beta 3. Entering contacts seems to be fine as well. 
 You can also toggle Quick Nav with a braille display now using Q-chord.

Hi, all,

I just got this keyboard to use with my iPod. There is an actual printed guide 
in the box. (I haven't seen that in ages.) However, I'd like to get an 
electronic version. I've googled for it and checked on the Amazon site. Does 
anyone have a copy or can you point me in the right direction?

 There is a key describer mode in which you can try out various combonations

All Inboxes Category Gone

2015-03-05 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all,

I seem to have made my all inboxes catebory disappear accidentally. I must 
have activated delete from the actions part of the rotor. I've tried pressing 
edit and then add mailbox, but it doesn't show the all inboxes item.

Where do I go from here?

Thanks,
Teresa

Wired Keyboard Suddenly An accessory Not Supported By This iPod Touch?

2015-03-04 Thread Teresa Cochran
Hi, all,

This started happening a few days ago. Yesterday; I did a wipe and complete 
reset of my iPod. The keyboard worked for about ten minutes, and now it doesn't 
even show up in the settings, general, about section as it used to.

Is there anything else I can try?


Thanks,

Re: Reading with Ibooks and a braille display

2015-03-03 Thread Teresa Cochran
There is a setting in Braille settings to change pages while panning. There's a 
bug which causes Voiceover to display thepage number even when this setting 
is on, unfortunately. This is why I mainly read in Kindle these days.

 Hi all,
  
 is there any way to get ibooks, like kindle does when having the setting on 
 for automatically turning pages as you pan,to not show that you are on the 
 next page but to just keep showing the text even after you go to the next 
 page?  Hope I am making sense.  I am sure that at one point, yesterday, it 
 was just smoothly going through the text and not displaying that, but I don’t 
 know if it was a fluke or something I might have done that I didn’t realize I 
 did at the time.  If there is any way to do this, I would be very grateful.

It used to toggle automatically when going into a text field, but it doesn't

order to navigate, or remember to toggle it off when you want to type text.

 Voiceover interrupting itself so I did the speak screen command. I wanted it 
 to stop reading so I tried a two-finger double tap thinking that it would 
 stop reading and it did. But when I tried to dictate a text message with 
 that same command, speak screen starting reading that email again. I had to

Re: A Virtual Reward Card On Your iPhone 6 Plus, Be Careful Who You Hand It To

2015-02-21 Thread Teresa Cochran
I thought I'd heard that there are kiosks you can use to bump your phone 
against, similar to using AirDrop? I don't think I'd be comfortable handing the 
device to someone, but I have to think that eventually things will be set up so 
you can use a device and do it yourself.

 Hello All,
 
 I am absolutely in love with the Passbook App and Apple Pay feature on my
 iPhone 6 Plus.
 
 The number of brick  mortar stores in my area that accept Apple Pay
 transactions via the NFC protocol is relatively high.  As a result, I find
 myself using my iPhone to make purchases at least once a week, sometimes
 even more.  
 
 The one thing I would like to see added to the Passbook app is the ability
 to quickly and easily add store reward cards without first having to install
 a store-specific app.
 
 Now I am well aware of the fact that there are a growing number of
 third-party apps and websites that will facilitate the creation of a
 passbook pass, however, given the recent data security breeches across the
 web, I am reluctant to give out any private purchasing information to
 third-party, and as far as I am concerned, unvetted entities.
 
 Given my recent success with Passbook, I have been considering virtualizing
 all of my store-specific reward cards by installing an app such as KeyRing
 or Stocards.  
 
 Using such an app would allow me to quickly display the virtual card on my
 phone's display allowing it to be scanned at the time of purchase.  
 
 I was planning on downloading a few such apps this evening when, earlier
 today, while in a brick  mortar store, I witnessed a customer hand her
 iPhone 6 Plus, with a virtual reward card displayed on the screen, to a
 store employee in order for the employee to scan the bar code.
 
 To everyone's surprise, the employee dropped the iPhone.  Because of a
 convergence of circumstances, the phone landed on the floor.  Not good. The
 customer was, to put it mildly, furious.  
 
 After having seen this, I'm not certain if I want to use virtual store
 reward cards if doing so means that I must first hand my device to a store
 employee.  
 
 A virtual reward card on your iPhone 6 Plus, be careful who you hand it to.
 
 Mark

This prrocess is kind of hit and miss as well. If you're familiar with Mac

 Thank you for trying to help with specifics of what I should hear, and where

I find it interesting that sighted persons who try to help have a
 mindset where they think something should work a certain way, even when I
 give them specific different info. I often prove them wrong, such as that
 you can indeed have a non g mail e mail sign in for google, and that you can
 have more than one sign in, though of course, that isn't exactly logical or
 particularly efficient either. I don't find doing mail on the phone all that
 comfortable and primarily do e mail from my desktop. I created a g mail e
 mail to use only on the phone and I've got a Verizon account I access on the
 computer.
Now it's back to that audio demo to see what Jonathan discovered,
 which I have not yet discovered. So far I am disappointed that when Google
 find results it only tells me that it has found them but it does not
 automatically read them. Maybe I am missing an additional button I need to
 hit on to get the speaker to read all the findings.

 next swipe right goes to the voice search button which you can use to call

 reached when swiping right is Google now which when executed will provide

 they're is a recents button in the top right corner of the screen which for

Visual Aspects of Trivia Crack Game: What Do They Mean?

2015-02-16 Thread Teresa Cochran
Has anyone explored the interface and discovered the functions of spins, 
characters, skins, stats, etc.? I'm a little confused about whether to choose 
categories after a spin and various other issues. I was invited to give skins 
to friends on Facebook. It said they were stuck already which I have no clue 
about, but now my sister is playing with me, so I suppose it's a good thing. :)

I'm having a lot of fun with this game, despite the visual confusion.

Thanks,
Teresa

 There is a button that says new game, double tap there and if the language

 English I do believe is the default language. Then choose your game mode.
 Choosing Challenge mode will set up a game with several different people
 where you have to answer the same questions as the others who are playing
 you, I believe the person who gets the most correct answers in the fastest
 time is the winner. If you choose Classic mode you will play one on one
 with another player. Then you have to choose if you want to play with a
 friend or if you want to play with a random player. After you have made
 your choices, double tap on play now. I always choose to play with a
 friend. If you choose to play with a friend, the next screen will let you
 either invite a Facebook friend, or to search for a player. The game is
 very accessible, except when you are given a question that says Who Is
 This or What Flag Is This, and a picture is shown, but if you have enough
 coins, I think it is 3, then you can skip the question and get another
 one. Just remember you only have 30 seconds to answer the question. After
 each question, you will be given three buttons, one is fun, one is boring
 and one is continue. I ignore the fun and boring buttons and just double
 tap on continue to get my next question if I got the previous question
 correct. If you miss the question, you can double tap on Continue to take
 you to the game screen so you can choose a game with someone else if you
 have any other games that you are in the middle of. I hope this ramble has
 made some kind of sense. The game is a lot of fun.

Re: Sonos and Deezer with new features - now my top choice for music services

2015-02-15 Thread Teresa Cochran
Does one need Sonos hardware to get these features? I'm not familiar with 
Sonos. Is it companion software for a device, or does it work by itself?

 Hello Craig and others,
  
 I just received an email from Deezer this morning with the following:
  
 The Sonos app has been updated!
 You can now use these Deezer features directly on your Sonos device:
 • Discover a better navigation experience and an easy-to-use interface.
 • Listen to your Flow, your 100% personalised radio.
 • Find recommendations, search and create playlists.
  Add songs to your Favourite tracks.
  
 Go to your Sonos app to try it now. Don't have the app? Download it from the 
 App Store or the Google Play Store.
  
 Of course I tried it immediately to see if these updates may have fixed the 
 problem I had with my songs constantly skipping half way through and going on 
 to the next song. Sure enough, I played the entire Greatest Hits album from 
 Journey with not a single skip or hiccup.
  
 The implementation of all the Deezer features is absolutely outstanding and I 
 bet Sonos fans with Spotify subscriptions will leave them behind very quickly 
 if they realize how much more Deezer offers. Of course with Deezer Elite 
 which offers lossless streaming similar to Tidal, Deezer also wins over that 
 service since they have way more tracks, I believe they claim 35 million 
 tracks.
  
 I know Deezer as a stand-along service is not available right now in the 
 States, but it is available via Sonos and now that they have basically put 
 the full functionality of the website and the Deezer app into Sonos it is to 
 me a total no-brainer. I had already cancelled my Spotify subscription a 
 while back, but still have the Tidal trial subscription which was offered at 
 40% off for the first 3 months, but now I am going to cancel that and simply 
 upgrade my Deezer account to Deezer Elite.
  
  
 Regards,
 Sieghard

Re: Sonos and Deezer with new features - now my top choice for music services

2015-02-15 Thread Teresa Cochran
 a headphone jack and goes for $299.
  
 5.   The Play 1: The smallest speaker with a single driver, once again no 
 input or headphone jack. Cost is $199 and it still sounds amazing. Any of the 
 portable players, Play 5, Play 3 or Play 1 can be set up as a stereo pair, 
 but they have to be the same, e.g. two Play 1 or two Play 3, you can’t set up 
 one Play 1 and one Play 3 as a stereo pair.
  
 6.   The Playbar: This is a soundbar with 9 individually driven speakers. 
 It’s about 3 feet long and won all awards in 2014 for the best soundbar. It 
 has one single optical digital input and you hook it up to the optical 
 digital output of you TV. Of course you can still play all the internet 
 content on it wirelessly same as with all other Sonos players and if you 
 have, for example, a CD player hooked up to another Sonos player, you can 
 play music from your CD’s, any source that is hooked up to one Sonos player 
 is available on all players and you can play it just in one room or you can 
 group your players together. I can group bedroom and bathroom and listen to 
 Deezer wheras my wife could group kitchen and livignr oom and listen to 
 something else or you can put all your Sonos players in “Party Mode” so 
 whatever you play is synchronized across all players in your house. The 
 Playbar is $699.
  
 7.   Lastly, the Sonos Sub: This is a wireless subwover which is about 
 the size of a traditional PC desktop tower except that it weighs almost 40 
 pounds and it sets you back another $699. You can set up a Sonos Sub with all 
 other Sonos players except for the Connect which is the non-amplified player 
 that connects to an existing stereo system. A set of Play 1 and the Sonos Sub 
 sound amazing and that setup would cost you two times $200 + $700, so a total 
 of $1,100. Of course a set of Play 3 or Play 5 with the Sub sound even better 
 especially if it were a large room.
 You can also set up the Playbar with the Sub and a set of Play 1 or Play 3 as 
 rear channels for a full 5.1 surround setup.
  
 As for content, you can point the Sonos app to a folder or external drive 
 connected to your computer where you have all your music and play all that 
 music on your Sonos system. You can also play any music on your iPhone to 
 your Sonos system and while Sonos currently doesn’t support Airplay natively, 
 you can hook up an Airport Express to a Sonos players and it basically 
 becomes just a source so you Airplay to the Airport Express and it’s 
 available on your entire Sonos system.
 As for music services, Sonos supports just about anything there is from Tune 
 In stations, Slacker and Songsa to Sirius XM, Deezer, Spotify, Tidal and so 
 on. I think all in all they support over 30 music subscription services and 
 most of them are also very easy to use via the Sonos app, essentially each 
 music service is an app that lives inside Sonos just like Netflix or Youtube 
 are apps that live inside the Apple TV.
  
 OK, I think that about describes what Sonos is, I think anybody who owns one 
 or more Sonos components love it. I am really hoping that they are going to 
 release a headset or a small battery powered headphone amplifier which you 
 could clip to your belt and plug in a headset you already own so that you 
 have access to all your Sonos content on a headset.
  
 I also have my laptop connected to my Sonos Connect in my office, so I can 
 take my Logitech wireless keyboard anywhere in the house and all I have to do 
 is set the Sonos player in the room I am in to play that source and I get 
 Jaws anywhere I go. Currently I have my Play 5 sitting in the bedroom as well 
 with a headset connected so that way I can use the computer in the evening if 
 my wife is already asleep.

 Sieghard

Re: playing WMA audio book files from Overdrive on Iphones

2015-02-13 Thread Teresa Cochran
I'm fairly certain you can only play Overdrive MP3 books on the iDevice. WMA is 
a Windows format, and also, the files have a lot of protected content, so may 
not play in anything other than Overdrive without self-destructing. I hope I'm 
wrong, though. I can't test it, since you can only use Windows to transfer the 
files, and I don't have access to that application.

 iPhone, iPod and iPad don't support WMA files. 
 
 I know an article which introduces two methods on how to import WMA to iTunes 
 and then transfer WMA  to iPhone/iPod/iPad via iTunes at: 
 http://www.faasoft.com/articles/wma-to-itunes-to-play-wma-on-iphone-ipad-ipod.html
 
 Method One: Import WMA to iTunes for Windows
 
 Launch iTunes, and then click File  Add File to Library to open WMA 
 files that you want to import. Then a window will pop up as clearly. Just 
 click Convert to convert WMA to iTunes M4A format. Once the conversion is 
 done, you can play WMA files in iTunes or import WMA to iPhone, iPad and iPod.
 
 Method Two: Add WMA to iTunes for Mac
 
 For Mac users, the widely used solution is to convert WMA to iTunes more 
 compatible formats like MP3, M4A, AAC, etc with special WMA to iTunes 
 Converter. Faasoft's great WMA to iTunes Converter is the best one of them, 
 which enables to convert WMA to iTunes with fast speed and high quality.

Re: Problems Selecting Text In E-mail

2015-02-12 Thread Teresa Cochran
Selecting text that isn't in an edit field is a quirky process. There are a 
couple of workarounds if selecting it directly doesn't work. You can try 
hitting reply and then the text will be editable, making it a bit easier. You 
can also have Voiceover read a chunk of text, then use the copy last-spoken 
text to the clipboard command, three-finger-quadruple-tap to copy it. Note that 
this last method will also copy the Voiceover hint, as well, as in selected 
or edit field, so you'd have to clean that up once you paste it somewhere 
else. Sometimes, without using the rotor at first, you can use the pinch 
gesture to select some text, then go to the edit field and continue. It's kind 
of a buggy process all the way around, unfortunately.

HtH,
Teresa

Contact Info For PBS App Developers Concerning Accessibility

2015-02-11 Thread Teresa Cochran
Ok, I think the US Public Broadcasting System app could use some accessibility 
fixes. Video controls are really not accessible. Tapping random bits of the 
screen with Voiceover off is not the best solution. I want to write to the devs 
about this. I already used the report video  problems form, but it doesn't 
allow me to give contact  info in case I want to give other feedback.

Anyone else have email or even know of a place in the app to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Re: still cannot clear notification center!!

2015-01-29 Thread Teresa Cochran
I've found two solutions to this problem. You can either leave things as they 
are and delete each item individually with the actions rotor item, or you can 
go to settings, general, reset and reset all your phone settings. The second 
option is more of a pain, because you may lose your passwords, unless you 
restore from an encrypted iTunes backup. I only used the second method 
accidentally, as I was trying to reset settings to attempt to correct a 
Bluetooth keyboard issue. That issue didn't change, but I was suddenly able to 
use triple-tap to clear notifications.

Please note: this is a bug that has been reported by some. This bug does not 
allow you to clear the notifications either with a double-tap twice or a 
triple-tap.

HtH,
Teresa
