Re: Apple Mail question.

2012-02-08 Thread Zachary Kline
Hi Jim,
It depends where you're looking, really. If you're looking in the favorites 
bar, then yes, by default, you only see the inbox and sent mailboxes. There's a 
button you can press in that bar to show a mailbox list, however. If you're 
using classic view, which you can set in preferences, then mail behaves as it 
did in Snow Leopard.
I hope this helps,
Zack.

Re: Siri and Orthography

2012-02-08 Thread Michael Busboom
Hello Esther,

Your posting below causes me to wonder something else:

Is it possible to peruse iBooks stores or other App stores on your Mac and have 
the item you purchased download to your iPhone when you go into the App store?  
I find that I am far more proficient on my Mac, in terms of web surfing than on 
my iPhone.  If the answer to this question is in the affirmative, then how do I 
indicate that the item purchased is intended for use on the iPhone as opposed 
to on the Mac?

Thanks and kindest regards,

Mike

 In your response,Esther, you mentioned Talking to Siri: Learning the

  It has been my impression that ebooks can't be read on the iPhone.  If I

Hi Jim,

Run the installation directly from the volume (the .dmg file).  For some 
reason, that method is accessible, where as copying it to the applications 
folder and running it from there is not.  I got that tip on this list from 
Annie N last summer.

Best regards.

Automatic Downloads of iTunes Purchases on iOS devices [was Re: Siri and Orthography]

2012-02-08 Thread Esther
Hi Mike,

I've changed the subject line to reflect your question about automatically 
downloading iTunes purchases you make on your Mac to your iPhone. Yes, it's 
possible to browse for iBooks and Apps on your Mac using iTunes, purchase these 
items from iTunes on your computer, and have the item you purchased 
automatically download onto your iPhone or other iOS device. This also works 
for music purchases. On your iOS device, go to Settings >  Store.  If you have 
a new iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad, this is the last of the settings items for 
the options that are built into your device, just before the individual 
settings that may be present for apps that you purchase.  On my iPhone I have 
to do a three finger flick up to scroll to the second page in order to access 
the "Store" setting. You can also use the four finger tap in the bottom half of 
the screen to go to the last element of the screen.  (Note: I have far too many 
apps with settings loaded onto my iPhone to navigate to the "Store" s
 etting by going to the last element on my screen, so I just scroll to the 
second page, touch the bottom of the screen above the home button, and flick 
left to get to the "Store" setting.)

Double tap on the "Store" button.  On the "Store" screen you can set up 
Automatic Downloads, so that new iTunes Store purchases made for your account 
will automatically download to your device.  This includes "free" apps, books, 
or music, and applies to purchases made from any location, such as your 
computer or another iOS device that shares the same Apple ID for your iTunes  
account.  There are separate switches for Music, Apps, and Books, and you can 
double tap any of these to toggle the switch to "On" or back to "Off".  So you 
might want to have your new app and book purchases automatically download to 
your iPhone, but not your music purchases, if you buy a lot.  There's also a 
switch that allows you to use cellular data to download these new purchases 
when not connected to Wi-Fi.  I usually leave this turned off, so that large 
items don't download until I have a Wi-Fi connection in order to avoid having 
this add to my cellular data usage.

There is a similar setting to activate automatic downloads for books, apps, and 
music under your iTunes Preferences menu on the Mac under the Store tab.  On 
your computer, press command-comma, then navigate to the "Store" tab 
(Command-4).  I leave these unchecked -- especially the option for apps, in 
case a later version of an app loses accessibility, since I don't want my 
working versions to be replaced. However, you might want to automatically 
download music purchases made on your iPhone to your home iTunes library.  

When iBooks was first released, it was not possible to browse or purchase books 
through iTunes.  This is a relatively recent feature -- meaning that it has 
been around for some months, but some users may not be aware of it.  

You may find that book browsing, in particular, is easier to do from iTunes on 
your Mac.  List users who have both an iPhone and an iPad will recognize that 
more iBooks browsing options are available from their iPads than from their 
iPhones because of the larger screen real estate.  If I want to view options 
for items like "Popular Pre-Orders" or "Best of the Month" on my iPhone, I can 
copy and paste the link from iTunes and mail it to myself.  If I double tap on 
that link from my iPhone, I'll be able to access that special page, but I may 
not find some of those link options under the Store screen in the iBooks app, 
simply because it would make the screen too cluttered.

1. To browse the iBooks Store from iTunes on your Mac, select the "iTunes 
Store" in your sources table.  Pressing Command-Shift-H will automatically 
select the iTunes Store, or you can choose "Home" under the "Store" menu of 
your iTunes menu bar, or else simply navigate to your sources table, interact, 
and navigate to "iTunes Store"

2. Navigate using your right or left arrow key to "Books".  I usually do this 
by pressing right arrow from the sources table  to navigate through the buttons

Go to mailbox in the menu bar, and arrow down to new smart mailbox then press

Name the mailbox, then set up the criteria for the messages you want to go in

Declaration addressed to Apple for Accessibility inprovement

2012-02-08 Thread Daniela Rubio
Hello all:
Here I send a link for a sign recollection addressed to Apple.
The iniciative was started by a group of spanish speaking people, but I think 
it would be great for all, regardless of our native language.
The page is in spanish, but is very easy to follow. The form fields are just: 
Name, Last name, E-mail and the check box where you accept the regulations of 
the page.
In the page we can see the letter in english and spanish, but I paste it here 
before the link.




Users with and without disabilities who use Apple products declare the 
following:

We recognize the great work done by Apple in order to include support for 
multiple  disability profiles for their products. With this, many people can 
access a big variety  of services and content on the same date, in the same way 
and paying the same as people without disabilities. However, the great 
potential of this effort made by Apple could grow more.  A major commitment by 
the company is required to achieve full accessibility in their products and 
services, as people with disabilities still face problems accessing them 
freely. For all this we request:

Apple should give more importance to the accessibility of applications from the 
App store and the Mac app store, since there are many developers who ignore or 
do not pay attention to the needs of people with disabilities. It is very 
important to raise the presence   of accessible design issues and tools for 
improving accessibility within the documentation, design guidelines and 
development tools provided by Apple to its developers, for at this time, , 
documentation and accessibility tools fill in   positions of minor importance, 
and many developers are unaware of these elements.
Apple should reward the efforts of developers who create  accessible 
applications  by giving them  a greater visibility within the application 
stores. for this  a new category or  distinction  for applications should be 
created in  the Mac App store and app store,  where  applications in which  
accessibility is assured are classified. To achieve this, besides creating the 
distinctive character or the corresponding category in the App Store, Apple 
should define procedures for evaluating the   applications accessibility during 
the review process prior to the publishing of each application.
Apple should integrate accessibility within their staff. Employees at Apple 
should have more training and awareness about accessibility and disabilities  , 
so they can more effectively help this group of users to take more advantage of 
Apple's products and services.
According to the fact  that Spanish is a language whose speakers number is high 
worldwide, and more people from spanish speaking   countries acquire and use 
Apple products, we find necessary  that the support of accesibil...@apple.com 
extends into Spanish  in order  to improve  the feedback  between Apple and its 
users, for this feedback has proved to be very important for the company.
