RE: Re: direct tv remote app?

RE: Terribly SORE index finger!
As many have said, I think the key is to use a much lighter touch. You might also try using other fingers to give the index finger a break. I find the middle finger works well for me but just be careful Siri doesn't misinterpret it as a rude hand gesture.

Managing Files on iDevices
I'm starting to use a handful of apps that allow transfer of files between my computer and my iPhone 5 via iTunes. I've never been impressed with how file management or lack thereof works on Apple iDevices but I realize it is what it is and am making the best of it. I'm wondering if anyone knows how the iDevice handles a file that you've transferred to it from more than one app. For example, if I've transferred a Word doc to Office 2 Plus and also to Ubidisk, would that file be stored twice on my iDevice? I suspect it would but since Apple keeps a lot of how file management works on its devices behind the curtain, I wasn't really sure. This is more of a question of curiosity but I'd be interested in the answer from those who are knowledgeable in this area. Thanks in advance.

RE: I need help with mini keepass please.
Hi, Maria. There is an easy way to copy the password or the user name with Mini KeePass. When your entry is displayed, you can double tap the password field and its value will be copied to the clipboard. This copying is indicated with a visual tag that briefly flashes copied without sound. Either the user name or password will be copied if you double tap their items. I prefer using the split tap method which will also copy the values. Hope this helps but post back if you need more details.

RE: playing music on my iPhone from my network_The Tonido App
Max, it is possible to play music stored on your local computer network on your iPhone if you have the Tonido app. This app is not for playing music on a cloud server but will let you turn your own computer into a server where you can access any of the files it contains. Tonido also has a music player built into it and supports playlists so you have access to any of your music without having to transfer it to a cloud server. In order to use Tonido and set up your local computer as your personal cloud source, you have to install the applicable Tonido Desktop program on your computer. They have versions for most operating systems including Windows, OSX, and Linux. Once you install the desktop software, you use it to set up your Tonido account so that your mobile device can access the files on your computer. Here's the link to the Tonido downloads page where you can get the desktop program: http://www.tonido.com/tonidodesktop_downloads/ After that is done, you can get the app for your mobile device and install it. Here's a link to the Tonido app for the iPhone: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tonido-file-access-music-video/id388726418?m t=8 I'm still playing around with Tonido but it seems to do everything it says including the ability to play music on your local computer with its music player.

iPhone 5 and Inconsistent Headset Remote Results
I'm looking for some suggestions for correcting a problem I'm having with my Apple Earpods that came with my iPhone 5 and use of its remote and volume buttons. Often, when using the earpods, neither its volume or remote buttons do anything. However, if I power off my phone, when I power it back on, I note that the volume on reboot seems a bit louder which always foretells that the earpod buttons will then work. This rebooting doesn't always work the first time but eventually the earpod button functions return but alas the cycle always repeats. I've tried other earpods with buttons and they seem to work even less frequently including a replacement earpod set I got from Apple under warranty. I'm not a big fan of resetting my phone and am even less inclined to consider a phone replacement since I'm not convinced this isn't purely a headset issue. I am running iOS 6.1.4 and thought I'd throw this out there since there are many smart folks on this list and I'm seeking ideas. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

After playing around some more with my earpods and iPhone 5, fiddling around with the earpods plug in the jack either through rotation or re-seating will eventually cause the volume icon to flash on the screen after which I get a slight volume boost and the control buttons on the earpods then work. This has to be a hardware problem so after the iPhone 5S/FC new release storm passes, I'll get my phone replaced since it's still under warranty.

What you describe sounds definitely like warranty to me, I have gotten my phones replaced for less over the years.

They work just fine on any other gadget. I tried three different sets to be sure. I bought some Samsung earphones for about $4.95 from Amazon and they work to start and stop the music or books as well as to control Siri. Only the one button works on the Samsung earphones but it is the one I need. I am hoping that perhaps the IOS 7 will restore the capacity to use the Apple earpods. Eventually I may have to replace the phone because of the earphone problem and the fact that the home button will no longer close a folder. And the power button will not work at all. The iPhone goes to sleep only after the allotted amount of time has passed. When I first started having the earpod problems I did several hard resets and even restored the whole iPhone from a backup. No luck. If it didn't cost $200 to replace it through the insurance I would do so ASAP.

Inaccurate Reporting of Apps Store Upgrades During Release Crush was RE: app store issue
During most of yesterday, my Apps Store badge with the number of upgrades went from 44 to nothing even though I had not upgraded anything. When I opened the Apps Store, I was told all apps were updated. This strange behavior apparently had something to do with the server crush related to the release of iOS 7. Today my Apps Store badge once again says 44 updates available. I've found patience and a wait and see attitude work much better for me as far as new computer and phone operating systems are concerned.

FW: [BARD-Support] Welcome to BARD Mobile
Here's the announcement from NLS BARD Technical Support about the release of the BARD Mobile app. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: NLS BARD Technical Support [mailto:bard-supp...@listserv.loc.gov] On Behalf Of NLSDownload Sent: Friday, September 20, 2013 8:42 AM To: bard-supp...@listserv.loc.gov Subject: [BARD-Support] Welcome to BARD Mobile Dear List Members, We are excited to tell you that the BARD mobile iOS app is out! There are several things which we thought those of you interested in the app would want to know before you download it, and things you might want to do in order to ensure that you'll be able to use the app right away without frustration. BARD Mobile will work on any iOS device running iOS 4.3.3 or later. This includes the iPhone 3GS and all later iPhones, all iPads, and fourth generation or later iPod touches. If you have one of these devices, be sure it is running iOS 4.3.3 or later. You can't use a temporary password when logging onto BARD from the app, so be sure you have a working BARD username and permanent password before you attempt to log in with BARD Mobile. The app also will not work if you need to agree to the BARD pledge. If you have a temporary password, log into the BARD website at https://nlsbard.loc.gov to create a new password. And even if you have a working password, it's a good idea to log into the website and take the pledge if requested. Note that you can log into the BARD website using Safari on an iOS device if you like. The BARD Mobile app allows you to download items from the Recently Added Books and Recently Added Magazines sections of the BARD site and from your wish list. So if there are books you know you're going to want to read right away, add them to your wish list. It is also easy to add books to your wish list from within BARD Mobile because when you browse the site either from within the app or from Safari on your iOS device, the Download link following every book title changes to an Add to Wish List link. BARD Mobile must be open while books are downloading; if you switch to a different app, downloading will stop. Also, the screen must be unlocked throughout the download process. We encourage you to take a look at the BARD Mobile user guide. You can find it at https://nlsbard.loc.gov/apidocs/BARDMobile.userguide.iOS.1.0.html. The manual is also available in the app, in the Help section of the BARD Mobile bookshelf. If you want to read braille books with BARD Mobile, you'll need a braille display. Be sure to read Section 7 of the user guide, as it explains how to configure your display and provides keystrokes that make reading braille a smooth experience. If you have BARD books or magazines on your computer, you can use iTunes file sharing or Dropbox to load them into BARD Mobile. Load them as zip files; BARD Mobile will unpack them automatically. When you open a talking book or magazine that you have loaded in this way for the first time, be sure BARD Mobile has access to the Internet, as the app will need to download an authorization file from the BARD website. This step is not necessary for braille files. This should be enough info to get you started. Enjoy the app!

FW: [BARD-Support] Downloading books and magazines with the BARD Mobile app
Here are the steps for downloading a book with BARD Mobile as posted by the NLS BARD Technical Support team. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: NLS BARD Technical Support [mailto:bard-supp...@listserv.loc.gov] On Behalf Of NLSDownload Sent: Friday, September 20, 2013 1:06 PM To: bard-supp...@listserv.loc.gov Subject: [BARD-Support] Downloading books and magazines with the BARD Mobile app Dear List Members, Here are the steps for downloading a book with BARD Mobile, the iPhone app for using BARD. Open BARD Mobile, and Choose the Get Books tab. You have several options on this screen. If you want to download a book from your wish list, choose the first option, which is Wish List. If you double-tap this option, your wish list will be displayed in reverse chronological order. Double-tap the title of the item you wish to download. Next is a section called Recently Added Titles. It includes four options: Audio Books, Audio Magazines, Braille Books, and Braille Magazines. Double-tap the option you want to see a list of recently added titles in that category. Each item on this screen includes the title and a More Info button. Double-tap the title of the item you want to download, or double-tap More Info to see a synopsis or other information. There is a Download button on the More Info screen, which you can double-tap if you decide to download the item. The final section on the Get Books screen is called BARD Website. It includes one option: Browse BARD. If you double-tap this option, the BARD main page opens. Use the search options on this page to find books as you normally would. The link following each book title is an Add to Wish List button, so you can easily add the books or magazines you find to your wish list. You have several navigation options while browsing BARD. In the top center of the screen is a heading called BARD. To its right are Back and Forward buttons. These work like the standard Back and Forward buttons in a web browser; the Back button takes you to the page you last visited, and the Forward button returns you to a page if you have used the Back button to go to a previous page. To the left of the BARD heading is another Back button. This one takes you out of the BARD site and back to BARD Mobile. This is the button you'll want to double-tap after you have added books to your wish list and want to download them. So the procedure for choosing and downloading books from the BARD main page is as follows: 1. Find the books and/or magazines you want to download, and add them to your wish list. 2. Double-tap the Back button to the left of the BARD heading to return to BARD Mobile. 3. Double-tap the Wish List option. 4. Double-tap the title you want to download. A confirmation message will appear. 5. Select OK. While the title is downloading, you can double-tap it to pause. Double-tap it again to resume the download. Selected items will download one after another in the order they were selected. If you double-tap an item already queued for download, it will be moved to the top of the queue. If you leave BARD Mobile while items are being downloaded or the screen locks, downloading will stop. Downloading should resume the next time you open the app. If it doesn't, select the bookshelf tab. All items you are trying to download are listed there and labeled Queued for download. Double-tap the item or items you want to download. BARD Mobile will always download via wi-fi if it is available. If you're not in wi-fi range, BARD will download via the cellular network if you have turned on Download over mobile network in the User Account section of Settings. If this option is off, BARD Mobile will stop downloading until it has access to wi-fi again. We hope this information will help as you begin to use BARD Mobile.

-Original Message- From: NLS BARD Technical Support [mailto:bard-supp...@listserv.loc.gov] On Behalf Of NLSDownload Sent: Friday, September 20, 2013 1:12 PM To: bard-supp...@listserv.loc.gov Subject: [BARD-Support] Getting help with BARD Mobile Dear List Members, The full BARD Mobile user guide is available from within the application. To read it, open the Bookshelf tab. There you will find five categories: Audio Books, Audio Magazines, Braille Books, Braille Magazines, and Help. Double-tap Help and you'll find one item called User Guide. The user guide is displayed as a web page. The table of contents is at the top, and each item in it is an in-page link, meaning that if you select it, you will be taken directly to the text for that item. Each table of contents entry is also a heading, so you can skim through the guide by changing the rotor to Headings and flicking down with one finger. Standard VoiceOver reading commands work just fine. To have VoiceOver read from the current position, swipe down with two fingers. To pause and resume the speech, do a two-finger single tap. When you're finished reading Help, select the Help back button in the upper left corner of the screen, and then select the Bookshelf: Select Category back button. If you have Internet access when you read the user guide, BARD Mobile will load the most recent version of the guide from the NLS website. If you don't, BARD Mobile will load the version that was current when your version of BARD Mobile was created. So over time, there may be discrepancies between the online and offline versions. It's a good idea for everyone to read the user guide, but if you plan to read braille books, it's particularly important that you read Section 7, as it tells you how to configure your braille display and provides keystrokes that will make it easy to read and navigate braille books and magazines. We hope you'll find the user guide helpful as you learn to use BARD Mobile.

Reverting to Prior iOS Version was RE: Question which I already made probably know the answer to, regarding reverting back iOS.
Jennifer, I've never rolled back an iOS version but someone posted a link to this list I believe in the past day or so where you could download the last iOS version before 7 was released. I assume it still works since the site still loads and here's the link: http://ipswdownloader.com/ The top of the page has the heading Download Firmware (IPSW) Files for iOS Devices. Just below this heading are three drop-down boxes where you select your Device, its Model, and its most recent firmware before iOS 7. I think the available choices in each box will vary based on the previous box selections. After making your selections in each of the three boxes, there is a download link just below the boxes where you can save the last iOS version file to your computer's hard disk. There is some further description below this link which discusses that your device will be reset to factory defaults and will lose all data and content upon doing a restore to a prior version. When one upgrades to a newer version, you don't lose anything if all goes to plan. You should therefore make a backup in iTunes to either your computer or iCloud or both before doing a restore. The restore is done from within iTunes but this is also described on the page at the above link. As I said, I have never done one of these but if you want to roll back from iOS 7, this appears to be the way to go. Maybe others who have actually done this in the past can comment further. Good luck.

RE: My dilemma with Direct TV
Karen, I was running the DirecTV app 2.5.1 which is at least a couple of versions old on my iPhone 5 and when I now launch the app, I get that same message that an upgrade is required. Developers apparently have the option of forcing an upgrade if they feel it is necessary and I don't imagine we'll be able to roll back to a working prior version.

When I updated the Direct TV app on my phone awhile back, it seemed to be inaccessible. So, I decided not to update my IPad mini. I discovered a few days ago that the app on my Mini won't let me open the app until I update it. Is there any way around this? I see an ok button, but no cancel button when that message appears. If I update, is there any way to go back to the old version? I have tried using the new version on my phone, and can't seem to find any tv listings, other than suggested listings which don't really interest me. The old search by time and date, and by channel seems to be lost somewhere. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

iPHone 5 Contacts Icon and Problem Moving to Desktop Page 2
I know these are really basic questions but I'm an iPhone newbie so hopefully you'll cut me some slack. 1. I just synced my Outlook contacts and calendar with my iPhone but I'll be darned if I can find a Contacts icon on my iPhone's main screen with which to access the contacts. I know at least part of the sync was successful since I have calendar items under that icon. How do I review my phone's contacts? 2. The apps icon sits on desktop page 2 of my iPhone 5 but I'm having a lot of difficulty getting to that second page. I found the page dots at the bottom of the screen where it says page 1 and swipe up or down to change page selection but when I swipe, nothing happens. I have to turn VoiceOver off and then swipe left or right as a sighted person would do to get to the second page. Any suggestions on an easier method or what I might be doing wrong?

I save all my email on the gmail servers with about 3.3GB of these messages archived in the All Mail folder. The gmail server inbox contains just the messages not yet downloaded to Outlook on my desktop computer. I'm concerned that the first time I access gmail with my iPhone, all messages including those archived will be downloaded from the servers to my phone. Let me change that. I think with IMAP, the full message is not actually downloaded but just the headers and subjects. I only want the iPhone to get messages that are in the inbox, not all the archived messages. Can anyone tell me if I need to configure my phone differently to get what I want?

iTunes 11 Store and Screen Reader Compatibility
I use an older version of ZoomText (9.19) and I know it has compatibility issues with iTunes but I notice when accessing the iTunes Store on my PC, that much of the content presented seems to be images. At least I cant' find much text to copy to something else that can read it when ZoomText won't. I'm curious how other screen readers work in the iTunes Store when accessing it via your computers. Do others experience problems here and have you come up with any workarounds. the latest release of ZoomText which is version 10 is supposed to be compatible with iTunes. However, the Tech Support rep I spoke with yesterday admitted that he wasn't sure it worked with the iTunes Store since he thought the Store used a lot of images to present text. Is anyone out there using ZoomText 10 and if so, how does it work with the iTunes Store? Thanks in advance for any comments.

RE: iPhone 5 Setting to Turn Off Caller Identification and Time Elapsed During a Call
I figured out what I did to cause my iPhone 5 to speak the caller's name when talking with someone using my earpods. I changed a setting in VoiceOver to turn on Speak Notifications in Locked Screen. Since the calls where I was having the problem were taken while walking with my phone in locked mode, the phone was notifying me of the caller's name based on that setting. I know better than to change the default setting which is off for this item but as I say, live and learn.

iOS 6.1 User Guide VoiceOver Gesture Errors
I've been reviewing the VoiceOver gestures section of the iOS 6.1 User Guide I downloaded from the Apple Support site.

Also, the user guide says to mute VoiceOver speech, use a three-finger triple tap but mine is muted with a three-finger double tap. Has anyone else noticed this error?

RE: Voice Dream Question about Entering Bookshare Account Info
Thanks, Richard. You're right. I must have goofed when playing around with the rotor and inadvertently set my keyboard from standard to touch typing. I've got it set back now and will be more careful in the future.

If you touch the wrong letter, don't lift your finger, just slide it to the letter you wanted. You might try the rotor and see if typing mode is available and change it back to standard typing.

RE: punctuation and dictation
I don't know if Siri can get it right from inflection but if you say question mark and period in the appropriate places, Siri will definitely place the correct punctuation and not the words.

RE: BARD app coming
Tom, since the iDevices don't have external storage capability, I imagine users will have to manage the available storage built into their device. A BARD book takes about 10.4MB per hour of recorded audio so a 10-hour book takes 104MB of space. If you load up your device with a lot of books, your space will run out. I suspect the app will work in such a way that letting the NLS store the books and the users grab them when they need them will be how most folks will manage this. With more and more things moving to the cloud, the days of downloading everything to your local PC or to an external memory device are numbered.

Rating Apps
What method do most on this list use to rate apps? I just went into the iTunes Store using iTunes on my PC and as I've commented here before, my ZoomText screen reader finds very little to read in the store because most of its text appears to be image-based. I was able to magnify my screen enough to find the Voice Dream rating which I clicked but it didn't offer me a chance to comment. Is it easier to rate apps using the iPhone itself because iTunes on the PC isn't very easy to work with. Thanks for any suggestions.

Wired Single EarEarphones Recommendation
This may sound odd but I'm looking for a recommendation for a wired single-ear earphone for use with my iPhone 5. I'm not looking to spend a lot of money (less than $50) but I would appreciate decent quality not unlike what I'm getting with the earpods that came with the iPhone 5. I'm interested in a single ear model since I would like to have my other ear available to stay attuned to what's going on around me. I'm not really interested in bluetooth due to its cost and battery requirements. I tried the Apple store but didn't come across anything. It would be really nice to get something that has a mic and remote and volume up and down buttons like the earpods but I don't think such a thing exists in a wired, single-ear model. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Alan Lemly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

I'm sorry if these have already been discussed but I haven't read all the threads dealing with this app. I've just now played with it a bit and would recommend the following: 1. It would be nice if the app would allow the user to get the word spelled if desired. 2. When the choice is made, the color of the answer selected turns green if correct and red if incorrect. This is fine for sighted users but it would be nice if VO would announce correct or incorrect. Alan Lemly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

RE: ITunes Questions
Hi, Tom. I feel the same as you about iTunes. The View menu contains the commands to turn the side view on and off. The keyboard shortcut toggle to do this is ctrl + the letter S. If the side bar is not shown, ctrl + s will display it and if it is shown, ctrl + s will hide it. I'm running Windows XP and notice sometimes that my iPhone also is not displayed when I connect it to the computer's USB port. When this happens, I unplug it and then reconnect it and then it usually displays in the iTunes side bar.

Be that as it may, I realize that I have to put up with it, so, toward that end, I have some questions. My girlfriend and I both have ITunes version 11.something-or-other on our computers and we can't seem to get to the sources tree view consistently and easily. Is there a keyboard command that will consistently make it visible and bring focus to it? Second, on my Windows XP machine, I can see my iPhone 4 listed in the sources tree view when it's connected. On my girlfriend's machine running Windows 7, however, even though her iPhone 4 is connected and it syncs, the phone is not visible in the sources tree view. Why is that and how can we fix the problem. Both of our iPhone 4's are running IOS 6.1.2. There are other issues regarding her ITunes library, but I won't get into those right now. Thanks in advance.

RE: Converting M4A files?
Debbie, the first step is to get your voice memos transferred to iTunes where they should be easily convertible to mp3 format using iTunes. The below link has a good article on how to transfer the voice memos from your phone to iTunes: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/6403/iphone-transfer-voice-memos-from-iphone- to-computer/ Here is the text from that article: The ability to quickly record voice memos on the iPhone is a frequently overlooked feature. Furthermore, figuring out how to import these files from your iPhone to your computer can be tricky. Here are a couple of ways of getting your voice memos off your phone and onto your computer. The voice memo feature is very interesting. I've seen it used from everything to sweet messages to one's spouse to quick voice recorder for lectures or interviews. Once you have a voice memo recorded, there are two main ways of transferring the voice memo to your computer. 1. Via iTunes iTunes will transfer voice memos once you enable that setting. 1. Dock your iPhone via USB 2. Click the name of your iPhone under Devices in the left column 3. Click the Music tab 4. Click the checkbox for Include voice memos 5. Sync your device 6. Your files will appear under a new Voice Memos playlist 7. You can right-click on a memo to perform advanced tasks or gain access to the actual audio file. If you are having difficulty, several people in the comments below have recommended these additional steps: - Unplug iphone from the computer after the failed sync - In iTunes, select File - Library - Organize Library - Consolidate files - Plug in the iphone sync again. 2. Direct Share from Phone You can also email or MMS the voice memo directly from your phone. If you only have a few files, emailing them may be a good option. 1. From the voice memo screen click the silver button in the lower right corner. This will take you to a list of your voice memos. 2. Select the voice memo you want to share and press the large blue share button at the bottom right of the screen. 3. Select Email or MMS Once the voice memo files are in iTunes, you can select them in the song list and convert them to mp3 under the File menu.

Saving AppleVis Podcasts to Computer for Transfer to Stream
I hate to ask a stupid question, but I'm having a problem saving AppleVis podcasts to my computer so I can transfer them to my Victor Reader Stream for listening. I find the podcast I want just fine but when I'm in Firefox and right-click on it to save the link as, the file that is saved is only a few seconds long. I really don't want to listen to these just on the computer but I can't figure out how to save the full podcast. There is an excellent one on Fleksy which I just listened to and I'd like to put it on my Stream to listen to it again. Thanks to anyone who can direct me on how to do this.

RE: An App to Send Callers Straight to Voice Mail
I don't know about an app, but the following is from the iOS 6.1 User Guide page 44 and gives these ways to send a call straight to voicemail: 1. Press the Sleep/Wake button twice quickly. 2. Press and hold the center button on your headset for about two seconds. Two low beeps confirm that the call was declined. 3. Tap Decline (if iPhone is awake when the call comes in).

RE: Saving AppleVis Podcasts to Computer for Transfer to Stream
Sieghard, thanks for your suggestions. I noticed when downloading the AppleVis podcast using Firefox that the files of type was set to something like Yahoo Music mp3. That sounds like it should be fine but when I changed it to All Files, I got the full podcast. I also got the full podcast when downloading with IE8 which I really don't like using. I'll look into subscribing to the podcast feed.

Secondly and I am sure you have your reasons, but why not subscribe to the Applevis podcast with an app like Downcast on your iPhone. You can set this to either download the newest podcast or the last 2 newest or whatever or stream them. For that matter, you could subscribe in iTunes and the Podcasts would be downloaded to a Podcast folder in your iTunes Media Folder automatically and you could grab them from there to copy them to your VictorReader Stream. I know these are work-arounds and not necessarily a solution to why the entire Podcast is not downloaded by Firefox, but at least it's something to think about.

Lightning to 30-Pin Adapter Choices
I deleted the message where someone was asking about an adapter which would enable them to plug their iPhone 5 with its smaller Lightning port into existing docks, etc. they have that use the older 30-pin connector. So I'm starting this new thread with some options I've found for and adapter. Today's Rakuten (formerly Buy.com) email deal has the Lightning 8 pin to 30 Pin Converter Adapter + Lightning Cable for iPhone 5 iPad 4 Mini for $7.99+ FREE SHIPPING. This is one of those third-party jobs so as others have posted, you might want to stick with the Apple name brand or purchase this knowing that it's quality may be less than desired. Since you're only risking 8 bucks, it might be worth the risk. Here's the link to the item: http://drhotdeal.store.rakuten.com/p/lightning-8-pin-to-30-pin-converter-ada pter-lightning-cable-for-iphone/245819053.html Since that link is a bit long, here's a TinyURL link to the same theing: http://tinyurl.com/awha4ty Amazon sells the Apple Lightning to 30-Pin Adapter for $24.95 plus shipping. However, if you have another item that you need from Amazon to get your order over $25, you'll qualify for free super saver shipping. Here's the link for the adapter at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/dp/B0097BEFZE/ref=sr _1_1?s=electronics http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/dp/B0097BEFZE/ref=s r_1_1?s=electronicsie=UTF8qid=1363016909sr=1-1keywords=lightning+to+30-p in+adapter ie=UTF8qid=1363016909sr=1-1keywords=lightning+to+30-pin+adapter Here's a TinyURL for the same item: http://tinyurl.com/ahj8m2p Finally, here's the same Apple adapter that Amazon offers but from the Apple Store. It is the Lightning to 30-pin Adapter for $29.00 plus shipping and can be found at this link: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter Hopefully, that link will not break since it's not long.

Reinstalling Uninstalled Apps
I'm curious about how iTunes manages uninstalled apps. I know the apps are kept under a folder named Mobile Applications. I'm curious why one of the apps I deleted from my phone still shows up in this folder after a sync between iTunes and my phone. I would have thought it would be removed. I know one can re-download an uninstalled app from the Apps Store but if the ipa file is backed up on your local computer, is there another procedure for reinstalling it to your phone using iTunes?

Update on Single Ear Earphones for iPhone 5 Use
I wanted to update the list on my experience with two single ear headsets I've used with the iPhone 5. I took Raul's advice and bought the Plantronics M50 bluetooth headset and agree with his comments that for $28.99 at Amazon, this is an excellent bluetooth option for use with the iPhone. The battery life is excellent, the set is lightweight and fits comfortably in my ear, and the on-screen battery life indicator is very convenient. The unit has a separate slide power on switch, a button to answer an incoming call, and a button to toggle the volume. These are all easily accessed. The headset paired easily with my iPhone 5. I will say that the sound quality is not excellent but is certainly good enough for the price and my intended use of the device. Here's an Amazon link for anyone who wants to investigate further: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IMB5NG/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UT F8 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IMB5NG/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=U TF8psc=1 psc=1 The other single ear headset I bought is wired and is the JLab J3MS JBuds In-Ear Single Earphone Style Headset with Enterprise Class Mic (Black). This earphone is $12.95 at Amazon and well worth the cost if you don't mind using a wired set. The sound quality is very good and better than the Plantronics M50 in my opinion. The wire has a high-quality feel unlike some cheaper earphones I've used in the past with thin, almost plastic-feeling wires. The unit comes with different sized ear tips. It has a mic and a button that lets you answer incoming calls and also works like the center button on the iPhone 5 earpods to start and stop music playback and to go to previous and next tracks and to rewind and fast forward through playing tracks. You can also summon Siri with this button and my testing of it with Siri worked well. There is no separate volume button, however. For $12.95, this is an excellent wired single ear headset. Those wishing to review it at Amazon can do so here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004TBY6YW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UT F8 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004TBY6YW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=U TF8psc=1 psc=1 Alan Lemly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

RE: Weird issue with VO Volume
Alan, thanks for this very helpful post. I wonder if you might clarify something for me. I set my Change with Buttons setting to off as you described below and also set my overall volume for everything to 100%. Can you confirm that if I now use my volume buttons on the side to change the volume for whatever I'm doing that this volume will apply for all phone audio whether it be phone calls, music playing, VO, or whatever? What if I use the rotor volume control to change VO volume in some app. Will that new volume setting be reflected everywhere in the phone? Thanks for clarifying this for me. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Paganelli Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2013 5:17 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Weird issue with VO Volume Lisa, most blind people have change with buttons turned on. This means that it's possible that focus is on something else at the time when you were adjusting the volume and the level got changed. The first year I had my iPhone this drove me crazy with the volume changing and once or twice I had to do a reset to get voice over back. When change with buttons is turned off, you set an over all volume for every thing. I have mine set to 1 hundred percent. That doesn't mean though that your phone is always at full volume. It just means that all the elements are at 1 hundred percent which is where you want them to be. Now, the only thing the buttons on the side of your phone do is to adjust the master volume. So if you turn the volume down, that's all that happens is the master volume goes down but if you get a phone call, the volume will be where you set at with the master volume and no more screw-ups with volume changes on one part of your phone and not on another. Don't take my word for it, see how it works for you. It's easy enough to turn it back. Here's how to do it. 1 Open Settings. 2 Flick right with 1 finger to get to sounds and single-finger double tap. 3 Flick right to get to change with buttons Do a single finger double tap to toggle the button from on to off. Flick left to get to the sound volume setting and single finger double tap. Now flick 1 finger up or down to adjust the master volume setting. I have it set to 1 hundred percent. Now done and hit the back button to exit the settings. You won't have any more accidental volume changes. I've had my phone this way now for about a year and wouldn't turn on change with buttons back on again even on a bet. To easy to get yourself in trouble accidentally.

Using an iPhone 5 with Amazon Basics BT Keyboard. I somehow have the volume for voice over popping up all of the time. It doesn't matter if I'm in the app store or settings, the percentage for the Voice Over volume is always there, so I inadvertently adjust the speech volume when I try moving around on the screen. The up and down arrows on the keyboard also control the volume no matter where I am, so it's hard to really move around without making things too loud or too soft. this is definitely the VO volume, because the regular navigation noises don't change while the voice output does. Any ideas how I can fix this? It's driving me crazy. Forget love, I'd rather fall into chocolate.

I've had ATT before, but am hoping verizon performs better/faster. Has anyone seen any glaring differences between att and verizon coverage and performance? I heard sometimes you get the cutting in/out static at times, and sometimes garbled speech on one end of the call or another. Also, is verizon's internet performance better than sprints? I had sprint in Daytona florida and it had some of the worst 3g speeds I've ever seen! Try as slow as 12 KB/s and sometimes as fast as 50 kb/sno, that's not a joke. And, I'm not sure how many people could answer this one...but is Verizon as flexible as att when it comes to traveling in the US? With att the iPhone worked pretty much everywhere I traveled. At times att 3g was slow but not too many instances of that happening. My final question deals with battery life. Is battery life comparable between the 4S and the 5? Gosh, i hope the 5 isn't worse than the 4s. Any help will be greatly welcomed. Jordan Norregaard -- The information in this email is confidential and may be legally privileged.

Your passwords are stored on the secure Roboform server and are, of course, encrypted there so even a Roboform employee couldn't actually see them. The service is $20 a year, but this gives you the licence to install on as many devices as you want and your passwords will sync automatically. For example, if you had it on a PC and your iPhone and you add a password on the PC, it will sync to the cloud and you can then sync on your iPhone and it gets the latest updates from the server. You might want to search the archives for things like password or password manager, others on the list use other apps and have their reasons. Many want a free app, I personally have to sync between at least 3 or 4 computers at my business and my laptop and iPhone and I don't mind paying $20 a year for a service that works and gets good ratings. I'm sure others are good, but Roboform is what I have had for years and I have never found a reason to change it. The app is nicely accessible and you can set a PIN for the app in addition to having to use your master password so nobody can even get into the app. Only thing is that with the current version for some reason it seems that I can't access password protected SafeNotes, but I am working with Roboform to fix that.

Opening App Link in iTunes
I'm curious about others' experience downloading apps with iTunes 11. I just went to MamaPeach's LyricWiki link in her email. On that page, there was a link to open LyricWiki in iTunes. When I clicked on that link, iTunes did in fact open but it was displaying my music library, not the iTunes Store with the LyricWiki app available for download. This has happened every time I've clicked on a link to open an app in iTunes. Each time, I have to go to the iTunes Store, select the Apps tab, search for the app of interest, and then purchase/download it. Why is there a link on an app's webpage to open it in iTunes if this doesn't work? Or if I'm missing something, I'd love to know how others do this. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

RE: portable bluetooth keyboard
Denise, I like the Verbatim Wireless Bluetooth Folding Keyboard available from Amazon for $44.80 at the following link: http://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-Wireless-Bluetooth-Folding-Keyboard/dp/B004L9 LT2E/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronicsie=UTF8qid=1363578223sr=1-1keywords=verbati m+bluetooth+keyboard Here's a TinyURL to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/cd3chnn I like this keyboard because of its portability. It folds in half an comes with a carrying case. The fit and finish of the keyboard seems well constructed. I will admit that I haven't used it enough to comment on the key layout but the feel and action of the keys I do like. This keyboard is definitely smaller than the Apple bluetooth keyboard. There are others on this list with more experience using this keyboard than me so maybe they'll chime in as well.

RE: Possible problem with the earPods that came with my iPhone 5
Neal, the earpods that came with my iPhone 5 did not have the microphone problem you are describing but they were defective in that the volume down button on them had no impact when depressing it. I took them back to the Apple Store and exchanged them for a new pair which have worked flawlessly. So, it seems likely that you've gotten a bad set that need returning. Good luck.

They are the strangest things I have ever seen. But, to the point. If I record something on the internal microphone and then something with the microphone on the earPods, the volume on the Pods is way way down, even if I hold the microphone right up by my mouth. I have to imagine that this is a problem with the microphone on the pods, but I'm not sure. Does anyone else have this problem. I realize that if they are hanging down on your neck and are blocked by clothing, etc. their volume would be low, but that's not how I am using them. Do people think what I am reporting is normal?

Problems with Bluetooth and my Replacement iPhone 5
Well, I'm beginning to wonder if I've got a bit of a lemon curse. I took my iPhone 5 to the Apple Store today and got it replaced due to the faulty headphone jack and got one with an excellent jack and running iOS 6.1.4. I got it all restored and in the process of checking out various things, I noticed that it is unable to find my bluetooth JBL Flip speaker. This seems an odd thing not to work and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar with their iDevices. I have bluetooth turned on and it says it's searching but it's not seeing my device which is turned on and just a few inches away. Surely I didn't get a replacement phone with faulty bluetooth and would welcome any suggestions of what else I might try. Thanks.

Actually, I did not do that Ricardo and thanks so much for setting me straight. Everything is now working as it should. I really made an effort to peruse the JBL user manual for such an instruction before posting but did not find it.

I have an iPhone 5, 64GB that I purchased in February of this year that is running iOS 6.1.4. I'm not saying I'm not ever upgrading to iOS 7 but I'm definitely not interested in doing so at this time. My problem is that the headphone jack on my phone is faulty. I use the earpods extensively and I have to fiddle with the plug every time I plug in the headset until I get the proper volume coming out of the earpods and get the volume and remote buttons on the earpods working. I'd say that 90+% of the time when I plug in the earpods, the volume is lower than it should be and the headset buttons don't work until I get the connection right. I've already had the earpods replaced once and this did not help so I'm convinced this is a earphone jack hardware issue. I would have preferred Apple replacing the phone through the mail but the senior advisor I spoke with tells me that they can't request the iOS version it comes with and he's fairly certain it will come with iOS 7. So I'm going to the Apple Store tomorrow and hoping that any 64GB black iPhone 5's that they have in stock still have iOS 6.1 on them. I will take my laptop with me containing a full encrypted backup using iTunes from which I can run a restore and get my apps and other things on the new phone. I'm curious if Apple had sent me a replacement through the mail with iOS 7 on it and here's where I need help in understanding the iOS installation process and what I believe I've heard folks on this list call Apple's signing of it. I take this to mean that even if one has a version of iOS on their computers, installing that version requires an action and signing or blessing if you will from Apple as part of its installation. The Apple senior advisor I spoke with didn't seem to understand this and that's why I'm posting this message. I did download the iPhone5,1_6.1.4_10B350_Restore.ipsw file about 1am the morning of September 20th from a link provided on this list. This file is about 1GB in size but I need someone in the know to explain if I could successfully install this on a new iPhone and what the steps would be. I think I understand that this can't be done from what I've read posted here. I appreciate anything helpful anyone could post on my issue. What I don't need is someone trying to convince me why I should just accept iOS 7. Believe me when I say I've thought extensively about the iOS I want to run and that I also think Apple could get me a replacement iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4 if I talk to the right person. Thanks.

RE: AppStore badge shwoing 2 Updates available but all apps listed in Updates are already downloaded
Neil's answer that the inconsistent update numbers relate to iOS 7 makes sense. I'm still running iOS 6.1.4 and have been seeing constantly changing numbers in the Apps Store badge ever since iOS 7 was released. I'm not big on updating stuff anyway so I'm happy ignoring the inconsistently reported update numbers and trucking merrily along with iOS 6.1.4. It does seem odd that Apple can't get this right since they know which versions we have on our devices and they know what the current versions in the Apps Store are.

RE: iToons
Lelia, I find the easiest way to control what is synced from iTunes to my iPhone 5 is to use playlists. You can create as many playlists as you want giving them appropriate names and selecting the tracks that are included in them. When you connect your iPhone to your computer with iTunes running, make sure the sidebar is running by pressing ctrl + s and placing focus on your iPhone in the sidebar. On the main iTunes screen, buttons or labels will be presented at the top and you should tab to the music one. At the top of the screen just below those buttons is a tick box labeled Sync Music followed by the number of songs on your device. Just below this are two radio buttons and you should select the second one which is labeled Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Under this are sections for Playlists, Artists, Genres, and Albums with the first two on top of the next two. Each of these sections contains lists within each category where you can tick those items you specifically want to sync. For example, the Playlists section will list all the playlists you've created and you can mark those you want to sync. Hopefully, this will get you started but post back if you have more questions.

FW: [bardtalk] NLS Websites
I'm including the below message from Lloyd Rasmussen posted to the bardtalk email list. Lloyd works for the NLS and while this is not an official NLS communication, it does contain some additional detail about the restored BARD site. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: bardt...@yahoogroups.com [mailto:bardt...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Lloyd Rasmussen Sent: Friday, October 04, 2013 8:33 AM To: bardt...@yahoogroups.com Subject: [bardtalk] NLS Websites I have heard that yesterday Library of Congress management requested that websites be put back online. This includes, among other things, www.loc.gov/nls and nlsbard.loc.gov. This means that data from these sites should be accessible, but there will be minimal maintenance and no support from Washington. No new materials will be added until the shutdown ends. Please treat the site with respect, downloading what you really need but not going into a hoarding mode. We don't yet know when normal operations will resume at NLS, but we will be back.

iTunes was RE: iToons
Hi, Lelia. First let me say that I changed the subject to spell iTunes correctly. Sorry if that's being overly pedantic but even though sometimes I feel iTunes is cartoonish, I thought we should get the spelling right. To add individual songs to a playlist, I'll tell you how I do it. I'm sure there is more than one way but I do if this way from within iTunes: 1. Put focus on music in the iTunes sidebar. 2. Use the Search Music box in the upper right corner to get the tracks listed I want to add to the playlist. 3. Highlight those listed tracks in the main window that you want to add to a playlist and press ctrl + F10 to bring up the context menu. 4. From the context menu, you can select either New playlist from selection to create a playlist on the fly or Add to playlist which will present your list of existing playlists from which to choose. Good luck.

RE: iTunes again, music not showing up in folders.
Lelia, one thing that confused me was I downloaded a new song from Amazon, added it to my main playlist in iTunes, and then synced my computer with my iPhone. However, when I went to play that song, it was not on my phone. When I checked the playlist in iTunes, it was not there either. On another attempt, I noticed that when you have songs listed in iTunes and go into the context menu to add them to a playlist that if your iPhone is connected, the first listed group of playlists in the context menu will be those on the iPhone followed by the playlists on the computer. You want to add the songs to the playlists on the computer so they will sync correctly to the phone. At least that fixed the problem I was having. Good luck and let us know if this works for you.

RE: Playing Music From Personal Drive
Here's what I posted earlier about the Tonido app that will do what you're wanting. I have heard that the desktop program that must be installed on your computer to get your account set up is not very accessible but I was able to install it with my low vision without any problems. I thought this would be a good time to mention the Tonido app. This app is not for playing music on a cloud server per se but will let you turn your own computer into a server where you can access any of the files it contains. Tonido also has a music player built into it and supports playlists so you have access to any of your music without having to transfer it to a cloud server. In order to use Tonido and set up your local computer as your personal cloud source, you have to install the applicable Tonido Desktop program on your computer. They have versions for most operating systems including Windows, OSX, and Linux. Once you install the desktop software, you use it to set up your Tonido account so that your mobile device can access the files on your computer. Here's the link to the Tonido downloads page where you can get the desktop program: http://www.tonido.com/ http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tonido.com%2Ftonidodesktop_dow nloads%2Fsa=Dsntz=1usg=AFQjCNFzv1Jc4P1fj_DzvuBVvf4kDIOd_g tonidodesktop_downloads/ After that is done, you can get the app for your mobile device and install it.

RE: Leather iPhone 5 and 5s Case
Alan, I have an iPhone 5 and mine is always in my pocket too. Based on a recommendation I got from this list, I use the Tech21 case that completely covers the back of the phone and the sides with holes for the plugs and the lightning connector. I also have a film protector on the screen since the Tech21 does not cover it at all. The case does have a special material around the edges that remains flexible until it comes in contact with something at which time it hardens. I really like this case because it offers good protection without adding any bulk to the phone.

Probably not, as I said, it's OK, I am sure it will fit great, but it smells funny and in my book looks cheap and you can probably buy a $3 TPU case which would do just as good a job protecting the phone, that's like one tenth the cost of Apple's leather case and I can guaranty that the Apple case is not ten times as nice.

Authorized Content Sharing with Others
I'm hoping someone can update me on how an iDevice user can do authorized content sharing with others. I remember in the early days of iPods when most iTunes Store music had DRM, that one could authorize a certain number of devices to have access to their library. I'm curious if this is still possible and if you have to go through iTunes to share a song whether it has DRM or not with another. Did we ever have the ability to share a song from iPhone to iPhone for instance without going through iTunes? I'm doubtful this has ever been possible but I seem to recall an ad for some electronic device being able to do this kind of thing. Thanks for any assistance you can offer to enlighten me.

App for Getting Flight Gate Info
I don't travel that often but when I do I want to be able to get flight gate info since I almost always have a connecting flight. Ideally, I would like an app with accessibility that would let me plug in my airline and flight number and would show departure gate and termination gate. This way I can get a feel for how much effort and time I'm going to need at my connecting airport. Can anyone recommend an app for doing this? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

RE: BARD Mobile app question
Susan, if a book has markup in it, that markup is available as long as the book is played on a device capable of navigating that markup such as an advanced NLS player, one of the portable players such as the Victor Reader Stream, or on an iDevice running the BARD Mobile app. The markup is not tied to a user's account. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of susan Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2013 11:16 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: BARD Mobile app question Thank you to everyone for your responses. I understand that the ease of navigation is dependent on the Daisy markup levels built into the recording. However, my question is really about whether or not the functionality of the navigation is keyed to a user's account. In other words, since in my case with my current authorized player I cannot jump directly to level 2 navigation, am I likely to encounter the same restrictions on the phone app? In this case, my options would seem to be either exchanging my player for an advanced one if possible or, alternatively, using Read to Go or a similar app to read this kind of book, in which case the same questions exist. It sounds as though the BARD Mobile app works well for continuous reading situations, but perhaps less well for student/reference situations when a user, for example, wants to quickly access a recipe or Bible verse. Again, any thoughts/clarifications are appreciated. -Original Message- From: Richard Turner Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2013 8:53 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: BARD Mobile app question Yes. The bard mobile app has the same functions as the advanced player. Above the play button will be a button that may say something like front matter that when you double tap on it, depending on the levels available in a given book, will toggle between all available levels. On either side of that button are buttons labeled previous and next, so you can then jump by whatever level you set.

RE: importing all music in to iTunes, what's the secret?
If any of the music you imported into iTunes is in a nonsupported format such as flac, that music will not show up.

Now I am using the mac for this task, and when I go to import, I go to the folder, open it, let all the rows of artist to be displayed, then click open. It says it is importing all of the music, but when I go to look for some music, under a artists name, there is clearly some albums missing. More than 2 or 3 also.

RE: Saving Text Messages on Computer?
Thanks, Carol. That is very helpful. I've also found that from within the message conversations, you can select edit at the top right of the screen and individually mark those you want and then select forward at the bottom right of the screen to forward them to an email address. This does work but it can be time consuming if the thread has a lot of messages you want to keep. I ultimately decided to pony up $20 and bought the MobileSyncBrowwser program which has both Apple and PC versions. This program allows you to extract messages, notes, phone call history, etc. from the iPhone's backup files on your PC to export to other formats on your computer. It works very nicely.

RE: password apps
Sandy, I like KeePass for keeping my passwords on the computer and the companion Mini KeePass app for keeping them on the iPhone. Although there is no automatic sync between the two, managing the process manually either through iTunes or Dropbox is not difficult.

RE: KeePass
Sandy, I think Raul has already answered your questions but I'll chime in with my perspective too. I still do most of my computing on a Windows XP desktop computer so I wanted a passwords program that would let me import my extensive passwords from the old program I'd used for years and that also had an iPhone app. I chose to get KeePass 2.x because it was the latest version and had more options with respect to importing and the use of custom fields which it calls custom strings. You don't have to use both programs but I assume you still use a computer and have passwords you need when using it so that's why you might want both. This is not a requirement if all you want is the MiniKeePass app. That app has an option to create a new passwords database from within it. I'll add to what Raul said about transferring the passwords file between KeePass on the computer and MiniKeePass on your iPhone. There are several options to do this in addition to using Dropbox. You can also sync the file through iTunes, get it through a Safari link, and get it through an email attachment. MiniKeePass has some excellent help information about this which you can access by selecting the Info button at the bottom of the MiniKeePass screen. This is an excellent program and app and I've had no accessibility issues using either the computer app with ZoomText or the iPhone app with VoiceOver. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: Raul A.

The reason you would want both programs is because this way you can keep one file sync between your PC and your iPhone through dropbox. If you get keepass version one you can install it on your PC and when you create the file be sure to save it to your drop box folder by default. The app called minikeepass for the iPhone will read that same version one file from the drop box folder. In order to get it from dropbox into the iOS app you will need to export it from the dropbox app and choose minikeepass to open the file. Again this is only necessary if you want to keep the same file synced between your PC and your iPhone. If you are only concerned about keeping password on your iPhone and the PC does not matter, then you only need the iPhone app. I hope this makes sense.

Re: KeePass
Hi Lauren. Great post about KeePass. I just went into MiniKeePass and created a test record. When I got to the password field, there was a button labeled wrench next to it. When I selected this wrench button, it let me choose the number of characters I wanted in the generated password from between 10 and 25. There is also a button where you select the style of the generated password. I used the default of mixed upper and lower case letters and numbers. This generated a secure password. At least it was something I'd never be able to remember. Have you tried that wrench button?

Selecting and Copying Text
I'm hoping one of you gurus can help me with this. I often want to copy text from a message conversation or from an edit box, etc. in order to paste it into another app. I can't figure out how to do this. I thought I'd turned on almost every rotor option there is in the settings menu but I either don't have one or am missing what I need to choose to do this. I know how to select edit and copy or paste such as after I've used Fleksy to copy something but I'm not getting how to select something myself in order to copy it. Also, what is the easiest way to select partial text from within a group of words such as part of a text message? I come from the Windows world where I often use shift and the arrow keys to highlight and select characters for copying and pasting. I realize without a keyboard that such a thing is difficult with the iPhone but I'm hoping there is an alternative that someone can explain to me. I believe someone may have mentioned something about pinching text in order to select it but I'm struggling with how that is done with very low vision. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

RE: KeePass
Hi Lauren. Sorry that I completely missed what you were asking. But I wouldn't have had any answers. I just use the split tap method to enter my master password using the on-screen keyboard and it's anything but fast. I suspect that the strength of the password and the ease at entering it are going to be inversely proportional so all you can do is practice. I agree that KeePass is an excellent passwords manager and I'm very glad I switched to it.

RE: How do you'll type very long messages on your Iphone?
As many have stated, many alternatives exist for typing long messages on the iPhone. I personally prefer the Fleksy app. I was horrible with it at first but like everything else, practice does make perfect. And they've improved some problems I didn't like about it with their latest version. Fleksy presents a keyboard with oversized letters on the bottom third of the screen. It is laid out like a regular keyboard but with only the letters. You type near where you believe the letter you want to be and Fleksy sounds an audible click as each letter is selected. It then does an amazing job at selecting the word it thinks you were typing. If it's wrong, you can swipe up and down with a single finger to choose from other alternatives. It really is quite amazing and gets better the more you use it. Good luck.

Hi Bhavesh, I have an iPhone 4 and sometimes use it to do my email. I was writing short replies when I was typing my replies on the virtual on screen keyboard. That works fine most of the time but there are times when a line or two just doesn't cut it. You either send that person a message saying I've made a note of this and will reply in greater detail when I get to a computer. Better then nothing but doesn't really resolve the problem. I bought myself an Amazon Basics Bluetooth keyboard on sail for 26 bucks from Amazon when the regular price was 45 dollars. I'm not interested in all the keyboard commands to strictly use the keyboard to control my iPhone. So, when I hit the reply button on my iPhone that brings up the on screen keyboard. That's when I switch my hands from the iPhone to the Amazon Basics Bluetooth wireless keyboard. As I start typing, it appears on the screen of my iPhone. Misspelled words are corrected in the usual way. When I'm finished typing I put my hands back on my iPhone and send the message. Given this description and method of use, the only thing you need to know about the keyboard is where the power button is and the recessed paring button oh and where the battery compartment is. The keyboard is roughly 10 inches long, 5 inches from top to bottom and maybe a half inch thick at it's widest. It runs off of 2 double (A) batteries. This keyboard does not fold so you can slip it in a backpack etc. I did buy the cover for another 20 bucks and it's a pretty nice little case. It's soft black canvice on the outside with fleece inside. The keyboard is a bit tight to fit in the case when you first get it but that eases up after some use. If your going to carry it around with you, I'd strongly recommend getting the case. If your going to use it mostly at home then save the 20 bucks and order a pizza with it.

NLS Update on Talking Book App

Bose MIE2i mobile headset - Seeking User Comments
Amazon has some of the Bose headsets at 10% off through June 22nd. I know many on this list highly recommend Bose products but they've always seemed a bit pricey to me. I was reviewing the Bose MIE2i mobile headset which is one of the discounted ones which Amazon is selling for $116.95 and was curious if anyone here has experience with it. I would appreciate your comments and reviews of this headset. Here is an Amazon link for those curious about this item: http://www.amazon.com/Bose-326223-0030-Bose%C2%AE-Mobile-Headset/dp/B0043WCH 66/ref=br_lf_m_1001204251_1_3_ttl?ie=UTF8 http://www.amazon.com/Bose-326223-0030-Bose%C2%AE-Mobile-Headset/dp/B0043WC H66/ref=br_lf_m_1001204251_1_3_ttl?ie=UTF8m=ATVPDKIKX0DERs=wirelesspf_rd_ p=1548148662pf_rd_s=center-2pf_rd_t=1401pf_rd_i=1001204251pf_rd_m=ATVPDK IKX0DERpf_rd_r=0JVWPXJNRQE85YG6ZEBY m=ATVPDKIKX0DERs=wirelesspf_rd_p=1548148662pf_rd_s=center-2pf_rd_t=1401 pf_rd_i=1001204251pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DERpf_rd_r=0JVWPXJNRQE85YG6ZEBY That link is so long it will no doubt break when posted to the list so here's a TinyURL link to the same thing: http://tinyurl.com/m4epx2t Alan Lemly -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

RE: KeePass Questions
Hi, Sandy. I'm not sure what is happening with that error you're getting about the composite key being invalid when first loading KeePass. I can say that KeePass provides options for protecting your data by allowing you to use either a master password, a key file, your Windows user account, or some combination of these. I think if you use more than one of these, KeePass refers to the protection as a composite key. You can read about this here: http://keepass.info/help/base/keys.html I noticed when I launch KeePass to check on a password, the Master Password which I use is ticked and I have to give it this password to get into the database. Below this Master Password is a tick box for a Key File which says none on my setup and a tick box for Windows user account which is not ticked on my setup. Is it possible that you've got one of the key file or Windows user account boxes ticked? That doesn't really seem likely since you're getting in the second time but I'm fishing here. You can create your own fields in KeePass which it calls custom strings. You do this in the Edit Entry dialog box when on one of your password records. For example, if you press enter when in your list of passwords, this dialog will open and be on the Entry tab where you enter Title, User Name, Password, URL, and Notes. The second tab of this dialog is the Advanced tab with an Add button where you can create your custom string fields. I think you can name these whatever you wish for each password record but I'd strongly suggest you use consistent custom string names for the same type of fields. For example, if you set up something like account number, I'd call it AcctNo across any record where you have an account number. Databases are just so much easier to use if you're consistent. Once you've set up your custom strings, you can copy their contents into the clipboard when on the password record containing them by pressing shift F10 followed by S to present the list of custom string names. Whichever one you select here will have its value copied to the clipboard. As you probably know, pressing ctrl b or ctrl c while on a password record will copy the user name and password, respectively, to the clipboard. All of these instructions are for accessing KeePass on the computer where I do the majority of my maintenance with it. The generate password feature is for those who want a secure password but don't want to think up one for themselves. KeePass will automatically generate one for you. It will certainly require use of the copy and paste feature as it will be random and not easily remembered. I hope the above helps but post back if you still have questions. Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: Sandy Finley [mailto:finleykn...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, May 20, 2013 5:32 AM To: simmonslaure...@gmail.com; 'Raul A. Gallegos'; wale...@gmail.com Subject: KeePass Questions Raul, Lauren and Alan, I have set up a database in KeePasss and have a couple of questions. I have a file currently called Passwords.kdbx. When I try to oopen it I get the following message: Passwords.kdbx failed to load the specified file. The composite key is invalid. Make sure the composite key is correct and try again. If I attempt to open it a second time and enter the master password the file loads just fine. Not sure what this message means and what to do about it. I have successfully imported the file to Drop box and I can oopen it in either KeePass or MiniKeePass. So that's working well. Is there a way to add fields? I have some info in the Notes filed, like phone numbers and some adcount numbers, but I'd rather have them in separate fields. Finally, what about the Generate Password feature? Not sure what that does. I have found the Help docs useful and will continue to work with them. Much thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
