Re: deleting a book from device in Audible

['Marshall Scott' via VIPhone]

I had a similar problem deleting an book from within the Audible app on an 
iPod.  After you get the Delete this item showing up in the app, you double tap 
it.  This action moves you down to the book title.  You then have to move back 
up to the Delete this book and click again to actually delete the book.
I hope this makes sense!

Re: Astrovolcano

Is there any chance the puzzle might be referring to Mons Olympus?  Its the

Re: Calls missing from recent calls list

[Marshall Scott]

Hi,
I’ve seen something similar.  I have my land line forwarded to my iPhone and I 
have selected several contacts set as favorites.  I then turn on Do Not Disturb 
which prevents the iPhone from ringing for every Tom, Dick and Harry 
telemarketer from interrupting me.  Anyway, a few weeks ago,, I had exactly the 
same thing happen.  No idea why.
Sorry for the long post!!

Re: Blocking unwanted calls on the iPhone

[Marshall Scott]

Hi,
I use the Do Not Disturb feature to stop the phone from ringing then I use the 
Favorites Feature to allow the 7 people I want to talk to allow them to ring 
the phone.  The problem with this solution is that all notification sounds are 
also disabled.

Hi,
You can do this by turning on Do Not Disturb.  TYhe only problem with this

iPhone Self muting

Hi,
I just upgraded my iPhone 6 to iOS 9.2.  Now it has started muting itself when 
I touch the home button.  Anybody have any suggestions?

Hi, Anna,
I've never had to reboot my phone before. How does one do this?  Also, When I 
said muting, I meant that sound was being turned off completely and the phone 
had switched to vibrate mode.

Re: apple tv 4th generation thoughts

[Marshall Scott]

Hi, Anthony,
I guess it's possible that apple has reduced its accessibility efforts in 
addition to the things I mentioned in my previous message.  After all, Apple's 
resources, while large, aren't infinite.And with Apple's emphasis on 
releasing new hardware each year; they may have diverted effort from 
accessibility.

Re: apple tv 4th generation thoughts

[Marshall Scott]

I think there are two major reasons for the recent problems with accessibility 
at Apple.  The first is that Apple now has to develop and support software and 
hardware for four product lines.  These lines are OS X, iOS for iDevices, the 
apple Watch and finally Apple TV.  Apple also has to support older devices like 
the iPhone 4S.  The differences between these products may be slight but they 
have to be tested.
The second issue is that Apple has decided on a 12 month release schedule.  As 
a former programmer, I feel like this is too short a development cycle to 
really fix bugs in software
Just my opinion.
