Check your Calendar settings on the iPhone (Settings  Mail and calendars) and 
make sure that the Exchange calendar is set as your default calendar.

Any ideas why I can add a calendar appoint through outlook and it comes to my 
iphone but if I add it on my iphone, it doesn't sync to outlook. We are on an 
exchange server would that make a difference? Any ideas to solve this would be 
great.
I believe in daring to be different-if different means looking up rather than 
putting down, in helping rather than hurting. I'll be as different as I can.

I’m getting the update notification, but hesitate to do anything till I get a

Ideally, the music will already be on your iOS device, whether you imported it 
through iTunes or some other means. The excitement is that this app has all of 
your songs at the same volume and transitions smoothly between songs when 
listening. It also has some good sound if you like hearing bass, trevel, and 
the like. Finally, it offers more features than the built-in music app. Muxic 
is only $0.99 so why not give it a try? You'll only be out a buck.

Re: A Tip for A T T Wireless Customers Who Are Thinking About Upgrading to iPhone 5

2012-09-15 Thread Frank Ventura
Good grief, people actually went into a cell store merely to preorder a phone, 
let alone pick up something. Usually going into a cell phone store  is 
something I only do as self punishment. I'll admit I also preordered an IPhone 
5 but I did it without even getting dressed or getting my but off of the couch. 
I merely had the Apple Store App installed o my old IPhone. I loaded it up and 
with a few taps got a confirmation email that said it would be delivered to my 
home on the 21st. Hope all of those folks at least got a free lollypop or 
something.

Hello Everyone,

I went into the A T  T Wireless store a few hours ago to see if I am
eligible for an upgrade.  Somehow I knew I wouldn't be but I just wanted to
confirm (Smile).  Not that it matters as I have decided to purchase iPhone
5.

I was amazed at the fact that the store was jam-packed with customers.
While I no longer frequent the A T  T Wireless or Verizon Wireless stores
as much as I used to, I visit enough to have been truly surprised.  There
was a waiting list to enter the store.

I asked the receptionist why the store was so busy and she said it was
because of all the people who are pre-ordering iPhone 5.

It would appear that not everyone was underwhelmed by Apple's keynote
presentation.

After leaving the store, I decided to go over to the Verizon Wireless store
and, it too, was jam-packed with people preordering.

All I can say is that there appears to be something magical about the
Apple-effect, as I have come to think of it.

By the way, I decided not to wait at the A T  T wireless store.  The
receptionist reminded me that I can check to see if I am eligible for an
upgrade by doing the following from my iPhone:

1.
Open the Phone App.

2.
Switch to the Dial Pad.

3.
Dial *639#

4.
Tap the Call button.  By the way, 6 3  9 spells the word NEW.  You will
receive a text message stating your eligibility status.

I pre-ordered Friday morning around 5AM. I first tried ordering directly from 
the apple web site. That was around 3AM. However, I couldn't complete it 
because I needed my wife to help with a box that was not being spoken. However, 
when I tried to go back in around 5AM when she wokeup, the delivery time had 
changed to 2 weeks. I then went to verizon web site and pre-ordered there. It 
is suppose to be delivered on the 21st. I got a 32GB for my wife, and a 64GB 
for myself. I am switching from ATT. I have been with ATT for many years now, 
and didn't really want to switch. I did it because ATT does not have LTE in my 
area yet. A few other reasons made me switch also. However, I now know that you 
can't do voice and data simultaneously on verizon network. I don't use it much, 
but I do want it. I guess something has to be sacrificed one way or the other. 
The LTE access was more important to me in this case.

 Amazing how fast these things sell out.
 This was my first time involved with a preorder for an iPhone.
 Previously, I got my 3gs and 4 after all that order rush was over.
 It took me at least three-four tries to get into the final order

Iphone 5 cases

Don't want to go leather this time, maybe something more high tech like carbon

Hi Scott, Amy and others,
If you want a quick, easy way to look up braille codes you can't remember, 
there is an app, made by someone I know, called Braille Reference, and is $0.99

Under the computer braille section, if you select to search by name, it will 
show you an alphabetical list of contractions.  The At sign is the fourth one 
in the list.  He says dots 7 and 4, which is correct.  However, you can get

Subject: Re: Small braille keyboard/displays for iPhone

David,

Do you tend to use contracted more than uncontracted Braille? Also I think I'm 
going to get one of those booklets that will help me remember how to make an 
at @ symbol etc.  I never used computer Braille. In fact until a year ago or 
so I had not used Braille since I was in school which was a good while ago. :)
I'm really looking to use my RefreshaBraille for more than just reading. :)

All braille displays work similarly with the iPhone. It is the iOS software 
which controls everything. The braille display is for viewing and the keyboard 
is for typing. Controls are more basic than with a braille note taker.

I would be cautious about getting the HumanWare or vario displays. Connections 
can be more problematic do to the nature of the bluetooth driver stacks and 
controls in the HumanWare products.

I have an Alva BC640 and a RefreshaBraille. Both work well with my iPhone.

That said, I prefer the Refreshabraille because I can turn it on and off whilst 
my iPhone is unlocked and it connects and disconnects without difficulties. My 
Alva, on the other hand, requires that I lock my iPhone before I turn the Alva 
on. After the display is on, I unlock my iPhone and the Alva automatically 
connects. However, when I write in 8 dot computer braille, the Alva is easier 
because all 8 dots are in a row (40 cells gives more room for the keyboard). On 
the Refreshabraille, dots 7 and 8 are next to the spacebar, so harder to press 
dot 7 for capitalisation.

National Braille Press, NBP, in the US has a braille brochure with the computer 
braille code. They also use to sell a book training on computer braille. In 
computer braille, the letters are the same, numbers are dropped to the lower 
part of the 6 dot cell (1 is dot 2, 2 is dots 2 3, 3 is dots 2 5, Etc.), and 
there are unique symbols for each punctuation mark. Upper-case letters are the 
same as lower-case letters with dot 7 added. I write computer braille at the 
same speed that I write contracted braille.

For large files, I find my iPhone 4 does better in 8 dot mode rather than 
contracted braille mode. Also, in contracted braille mode, iOS has a half 
second buffer. If you stop writing for half a second, whatever is in the buffer 
is translated and written to the field. Braille entry works whenever the 
keyboard is activated. Also, almost everything VO speaks is simultaneously 
displayed in braille. I regularly take notes in braille during meetings with 
speech muted.

not really what I need.  I need something more along the lines of being able to 
turn off VoiceOver on my iDevice yet still use it through braille while in a

Hello Everyone,

just wanted
to
confirm (Smile).  Not that it matters as I have decided to
purchase

I was amazed at the fact that the store was jam-packed with

While I no longer frequent the A T  T Wireless or Verizon

as much as I used to, I visit enough to have been truly
surprised.  There
was a waiting list to enter the store.

I asked the receptionist why the store was so busy and she said
it was
because of all the people who are pre-ordering iPhone 5.

It would appear that not everyone was underwhelmed by Apple's
keynote
presentation.

After leaving the store, I decided to go over to the Verizon
Wireless
store
and, it too, was jam-packed with people preordering.

All I can say is that there appears to be something magical
about the
Apple-effect, as I have come to think of it.

By the way, I decided not to wait at the A T  T wireless store.
The
receptionist reminded me that I can check to see if I am
eligible for an
upgrade by doing the following from my iPhone:

1.
Open the Phone App.

2.
Switch to the Dial Pad.

3.
Dial *639#

4.
Tap the Call button.  By the way, 6 3  9 spells the word NEW.
You will

That may be true, but Amazon has made at least some effort in addressing

up the accessibility built into Android. I admit this may not be as much
as we'd like, and it isn't as much as what Apple is doing, but the
implication that Amazon isn't doing anything with respect to
accessibility is a bit overstated.

Speaking of SIM cards. If you are in the U.S. and want to use TMobile on an

Hi Eric,

Verizon used to be a CDMA carrier, but with LTE this has changed. Also, just
for your record, the iPhone 5 uses a Nano SIM. The iPhone 4 and 4S used
the Micro SIM which is smaller than a regular SIM, the Nano SIM is yet
smaller, in fact it's outright tiny. Also, you were able to cut a regular
SIM card to the size of a Micros SIM either with a sharp knife nd a steady
hand along with either a Micro SIM as a template or a template you can find
online along with instructions. You could also buy a special cutter which
made the task a lot easier from various places, one of the best I heard is
from www.CutMySIM.comhttp://www.CutMySIM.com and their cutter actually came 
with an adapter so you
could use your newly cut Micro SIM again as a regular SIM similar to how you
can use adapters to use a Micro SD card in a regular SD card slot. I just
googled Can you cut a Micro SIM to the size of a Nano SIM and got a ton of
results, here is what CNEt has to report:

Can you cut a Micro SIM to the size of a Nano SIM??
Answer: Yes, but it's not as easy as cutting a regular SIM to the size of a
Micro SIM.

The nano-SIM isn't just smaller than the micro-SIM - it's also thinner.
If you're expecting a new iPhone 5 on Friday, and you're buying it unlocked
directly from Apple, you're going to need a nano-SIM to go with it.
Obtaining one is easy if your carrier is one supporting the new device,
because you can just call them up and request one. But what if you're
already stuck in a contract with a carrier that doesn't provide nano-SIMs
yet?

Fortunately for you, scissors, some sandpaper, and a pair of steady hands
will allow you to cut down your existing SIM or micro-SIM into a nano-SIM.

The nano-SIM is around 40% smaller than the micro-SIM, measuring 15 x 12 x
0.76mm. That means there's zero chance you'll be able to stuff your
micro-SIM into your iPhone 5 without modifying it first. But CNET reports
that it's possible to cut down the micro-SIM for a nano-SIM slot - just like
you could cut down your iPhone 3GS's regular SIM card for use in the iPhone
4. It does require a little more work, however.

You see, not only is the nano-SIM smaller than the micro-SIM, but it's also
12% thinner. That means you don't just need to cut it down to size, but you
also need to put it on a diet and thin out out a little bit. CNET's John
Chan explains:

Now, let's say the SIM tray on the iPhone 5 allows a nano-SIM up to 0.70mm
(as permitted by the allowance in the standard set by ESTI), I will need to
pare down 0.12mm on my micro-SIM so that it will fit. After a few minutes of
sanding with some sandpaper (240 grit, for those who care), it was finally
down to 0.70mm. But did the sanding damage the card?

I'm happy to report that the card, even at 0.70mm, continued to work when
inserted in an HTC One X. Sanding the non-metal side of the micro-SIM did
not appear to affect how it functions.

Before you go ahead and do this, wait until you receive your iPhone 5 on
Friday and double-check that a micro-SIM cut down to size - without sanding
- doesn't fit. It's likely it won't, but as Chan notes, we can't be sure of
that until the iPhone 5 is released and it can be tested.

Re: No Cradle?

Two possibilities here. The first of all is that you may be thinking of the 
Apple's included 30 pin to mini USB adaptor that was included in European 
iPhones to comply with EU regulations. Secondly if the cradle had a built in 
keyboard you may be thinking of the Apple iPad keyboard dock. I think the 
former is more likely. Speaking of the Apple iPad keyboard dock; I was in an 
Apple store here in Boston to find out if Apple still made it. The prepubescent

Hi, It makes sense that after turning it off with the keyboard that
you would not be able to turn it back on with the keyboard. This is
because the voiceover command, VO-H that you used by pressing it 3
times quickly, simulating pressing the home button 3 times quickly, is
a voiceover command. I do not believe that any voiceover commands are
recognized when voiceover is not running. So therefore of course the
phone recognizes that you are pressing its actual home button when you
go over to the phone and press it, however without voiceover actually
running, it can not recognize VO-H as a press of the home button
because voiceover is not running.

Re: Is there an iPhone 4 with 8GB capacity

2012-07-15 Thread Frank Ventura
ATT does not sell unlocked IPhones. However, if you have an IPhone on ATT and 
you have completed your contract ATT will unlock your phone. Apple does sell 
unlocked IPhones directly through the Apple store, but of course they are 
considerably more exspensive than the locked ones.

 I didn't buy one at the time, but when Apple came out with the iPhone 4, you

 4 for $99 after the iPhone 4S came out.

 If you want to pay less for your iPhone, a contract with a wireless company
 is the way to go as opposed to buying it flat out from an Apple store. Just
 my opinion.

That was a bug introduced by IOS 5.1.  It doesn't matter if you use VoiceOver 
or not.
Maybe Apple will put out a fix some day.  They broke that as well as the 
ability to use several braille displays with 5.1.  They are aware of the

music for about 15 seconds and then nothing.
When I am able to get something to stream it seems to jump around and pause to 
the point where it does affect the over all viewing. I'm pretty sure that it's 
not my connection per say because I can stream netflix and YouTube with no 
issues so who knows.
For 99 cents, I'm not too broken up about it, but it appears that the app has

I'll keep on trying as long as Apple doesnt' pull it or something and hopefully

RE: TV Premium English Experience

2012-04-24 Thread Frank Ventura
Ilene, how do we know Apple pulled it from the app store? There are times 
developers pull apps from the store for technical reasons. In this case it was 
only pulled from the US store. As of this morning the UK channels still are 
playing.

Hello List, 

I thought I would chime in on this, since others are having a variety of 
experiences using this app. It's early evening in California and I opened the 
TV Premium app. The stations were up in 1-2 seconds. I observed that the 
stations were listed, but not what it was playing. I am able to access the UK 
stations with no interruptions. I was able to get Comedy Station
(USA) to play for about 2 minutes and then it stopped. Probably in a few days 
this app will be totally broken. Apple is onto it and they immediately pulled 
it from the app store. I thought I would just tell you what I found. 

Cheers,
Eileen

I purchased both the Premium TV English and Premium TV German app, once they

which is which so you have to open the app to find out and then remember which

RE: My New IPhone 5

2012-12-25 Thread Frank Ventura
Kelly, little late now but just for others. What you could have done is before 
you got the phone you could have signed up for whatever plan you wanted on the 
website or through the phone. Then once you got the phone you could have just 
taken it to a TMobile store and they would have put the nano SIM in for you. I 
have always had good service from Tmobile and I am sorry it was such a rough go 
for you.

Subject: My New IPhone 5

On Friday evening after work, I became a proud owner of an iPhone 5, finally 
joining generation tech in living the ultra-connected, information rich digital 
lifestyle.  I bought a 32 Gb version at Apple's North Michigan Avenue store 
here in Chicago.  The store was a controlled chaos of hundreds of people, most 
of them swirling around the open floor plan to soak up the Apple vibrancy and 
catch the buzz.
It is hard to get noticed by Apple sales staff, who struggle to decide who is a 
tourist and who is an actual shopper wanting to buy something. For sighted 
people, all the Apple employees are wearing
bright red shirts.I eventually was connected to a saleswoman.
Once I purchased my phone, she brought me to a second floor area where she 
introduced me to a trainer named Russell. To my amazement, Russell helped me 
with unboxing the phone for the first time and then provided a 45 minute 
tutorial on the phone's physical elements, accessibility settings, initial set 
up, and he showed me how to perform the basic gestures to use the phone.  He 
showed me how to insert a nanno sim card and at one point he attached an audio 
splitter to the headphone jack and we both listened to voiceover through 
headphones so I could hear the demonstration and successfully learn the phone's 
basic gestures while Russell offered iPhone coaching and feedback. He was 
patient, thorough, and totally knowledgeable about voiceOver for the blind and 
understanding how helpful it is to our independence.

After buying my IPhone and receiving an iPhone tutorial, I then went to a 
T-Mobile store a couple of blocks away to sign up for service.
The monthly unlimited data and texting plan I wanted with 100 minutes of voice 
for $30 wasn't available in stores, only online. Signing up for service online 
was useless without a nanno SIM card to run the phone. The store had these, but 
I needed to buy a plan that they sell.
 I was now between a useless store and a useless website. What to do?
Brian at the T-Mobile store suggested I buy a daily plan and switch it over 
when I got home.  He gave me the address of a website I could visit for the 
switch.  Brian said the money on this plan could be ported to the other plan.  
Brian installed the nanno SIM into the iPhone and entered the many settings 
into the device. He was tapping the screen for at least five minutes entering 
data. Once home, I tried logging onto the website an was completely 
unsuccessful.  I called customer service and learned that new customers are put 
on ice for two days and have no website access during this time. I told another 
T-Mobile representative why I wanted to log on so soon: so I can change 
services to one more affordable. At first, the representative contemplated the 
silly idea of referring me to a website I could not access to change my 
account. He then placed me on hold to check into the problem. When he came 
back, he had switched me to the affordable plan I wanted. I was so relieved and 
happy. Now that I was switched over, I provided my credit card again to pay the 
difference between the $10 in daily credit I bought at the store and my new 
monthly plan.

The T-Mobile fiasco ended Saturday morning when I rose to find my paid for 
service cancelled for lack of payment, which I had paid the night before.  
Another day and another call to T-Mobile speaking to a representative on the 
other side of the world. He successfully diagnosed the problem: my account was 
short $2 from a charge from the daily plan that I never wanted in the first 
place. In a very graceful gesture, he offered to credit my account for $2 and 
restore my service to the monthly plan, which took effect a couple of hours 
later.

T-Mobile is quickly getting its act together in supporting the iPhone.
The $30 a month plan is super affordable, compared to triple the price for ATT 
service.  A week and a half ago, super-fast 3G service compatible with the 
iPhone was turned on in Chicago and other major American cities. Every issue in 
getting my iPhone up and running on the company's network was greeted by staff 
with innovative can do solutions that enabled me increasingly greater use of my 
iPhone.  Now, I am set up permanently with T-Mobile.

After putting my life savings into a brokerage account for a juicy Apple gift 
card, I was able to ultimately afford the phone of my dreams by

Make sure you are using the correct number from the gift card. You have to peel

that
once I select it, I make sure I touch it again, then swipe left and 2 or 3
swipes should put you on the redeem button. I haven't redeemed a Gift Card

I
asked the customer service clerk to read the code to me and then once I
redeemed the cards and the balance showed on my account I just asked him

Hi Frank,

There has been some discussion on this and you may want to search the archives 
for terms like Go Payment, Square Reader or card processing etc. I 
personally have not have had any reason to try any of these services, but I do 
remember that those who have posted on here all said that the fact that these 
card readers all seem to plug into the headphone jack is a problem since it 
shuts up Voiceover. You may be able to get around it with a bluetooth headset, 
but this also doesn't seem to be just easy, either.

I am not sure if I have the names correct, I am pretty sure Go Payment and 
Square are providers of such readers, but you can always google credit card 
processing with an iPhone and get the exact spelling of the major players and 
then search the archives for those.

I use a Macintosh to do this so don't know what a Windows user would do.

Using Itunes radio on iOS 7.1

2014-03-15 Thread Frank Ventura
Hello all, I am using two different iPhones (one 5 and one 5s) with iOS 7.1 and 
using the Voiceover Screen reader. In The Radio section of the Music app there 
is a field that says something along the lines of enter a song, artist or 
genre. In theory I should be able to double tap on it with one finger and get 
into edit mode with the on screen keyboard. When I try double tapping on it 
nothing happens and it does not go into edit mode. Any suggestions?
Thank you

Mobile was RE: Does Microsoft Office Run on the iPhone and iPod?

There has been some confusion which I may have contributed to, but also if 
folks would be careful to use real app names, things would not get quite as 
confused.

The app I've been talking about is Microsoft Office Mobile which is free and 
is free for home use.  It works with OneDrive (formerly SkyDrive) and only 
Office 2007 and above documents that have the x at the end of the file 
extension, like .docx or xlsx, etc.

Microsoft also released Microsoft Word for iPad which requires an Office
365 subscription if you want to edit documents.
It is only for the iPad.
Apparently, it will also edit older .doc files.

I do not have an iPad or an Office 365 account so am hoping that Microsoft will 
make the Microsoft Office Mobile app which works on the iPhone, iPod Touch 
and iPad, fully accessible with VoiceOver.
My sighted wife can edit documents quite easily with it and VoiceOver will read 
the documents, but you can't edit them with VoiceOver.

RE: Bluetooth keyboards not working

2014-04-07 Thread Frank Ventura
Tried this a few times with no success. Below is the text of the response I got 
from Apple:




  Hello,



Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We continue to investigate the 
issue, but in the meantime, there is a potential workaround you may want to try:



When you find that the keyboard is not entering any characters, try using 
Control+Option+Right then Left arrow to move away from the field and then back 
again. If that does not work, please do this two times in a row 
(Control+Option+Right then Left arrow+Right then Left arrow). While this will 
not necessarily keep the keyboard from entering this state again, it should 
clear the state each time.



If you continue to have issues, please let us know.

SSEric

Subject: Airplay: I Just Ain't Getting It!

First, a general question. Is Airplay no longer an option in the Music app?
I don't see it on my iPhone 5 or Touch running the latest IOS.. I am sure it 
used to be there, but I don't play music all that often and never had cause for 
Airplay, so I am not sure when it disappeared. Is there something you must do 
to activate it in the Music player?

Specifically, I bought a Philips Airplay enabled speaker. It requires that you 
acquire your network. I then bring up Wifi on my phone or Touch and can see the 
new option for Philips. This is fine, except that if I switch from my home 
network to this new Philips one, which is attached to my home network, I can 
then no longer stream via wifi. Is this just the way it is?

By the way, with regard to my first question about Airplay not showing in the 
music player, the way I was able to play music was to first select the Philips 
from Airplay in the MLB At Bat app. I then switched to Music and played music 
through the speaker.

I am trying to decide whether or not to keep this speaker and if I want to mess 
with Airplay at all. If my finding is true that you do have to join the 
speaker's network connection, thus not able to stream via your home network, 
then that doesn't seem so viable, since most of what I do listen to is 
streamed. Also, as I said, I don't really do music listening all that often, so 
it might not be worth it, and I will just stick with Bluetooth options.

Incidentally, as I shopped Amazon for Airplay speakers, I saw that a whole lot 
of them showed as discontinued by various manufacturers. It makes me wonder 
about the future of the format.

Thanks for any education on how Airplay does or does not work.

Eric

RE: bluetooth keyboard and IOS 8

2014-09-17 Thread Frank Ventura
Has anyone figured out how to activate the home button via the keyboard in iOS 
8. Previously you could do VO H and it would work but now it just says 
something about  a heading?

Use Quick Nav to get most of the voiceover commands. You'll have to turn quick 
nav off to type. Pay attention because voiceover may restart occasionally in 
all this. Big nuisance but you might be able to work around it in this way.

 Robert,

 Fairly wide spread and apparently inconsistent bluetooth keyboard 
 problems have been one of the issues many of the bug reports have been 
 focused on. I posted several messages which theoretically were in 
 violation of the NDA I agreed to when I signed up for my developer 
 account and pointed out some of the bugs. I along with several others 
 repeatedly warned people not to upgrade right away and to be fully 
 informed about the bugs. Now that you have upgraded you will have to 
 live with it until Apple fixes it. I know others who say Vo bluetooth 
 commands don't work for them. I have an iPhone 5S and a Logitech K811 
 bluetooth keyboard and Vo commands work for me just fine. My only 
 issue seems to be that I have to turn quick nav off in order to type 
 anything in any edit field, apart from that it's working OK.


 Regards,
 Sieghard

 Ever since upgrading I can no longer use the voiceover keyboard commands.
 the only ones that work are the arrow keys and the rotor.  I even 
 tried forgetting the device, shutting down the phone, turning it on 
 and pairing the keyboard again the only keys that seem to work are the 
 arrow keys, escape and caps lock.
