Re: Creating more space on IPhone?
Hi, Something similar happened on my iPhone 4, 16GB. I wrote to viPhone about it, and was given instructions to try and install it with iTunes, which, when I got ready to do, a sync was done, then on the phone, I was allowed to install it. I did go and delete a few things also though.

Re: Creating more space on IPhone?
Well, 5gb is easy to believe, depending on what the app has downloaded or cached, and that's about a third of your total right there. Music is probably around 200mb, depending on how big each song is, and four more apps of 200mb each gets you to another gigabyte right there. Clear out content on that 4gb app, that's most of the problem, then see about erasing larger apps you don't use. For instance, I erased all my music (since I can just re-sync it anyway) and deleted Garageband since I never use it anyway.

Creating more space on IPhone?
Hi, I've got a 16 Gig IPhone 5 and can not download the new IOS 7 because it tells me I only have 2.7 gigs available on my phone and it needs at least 3 gigs for it to download. Do apps really take up that many gigs? Every app I see in the "Usage" section takes up megs, not gigs. The only one that takes up 5 gigs is OOTunes, which I find hard to believe. Also, I don't have much music on my phone.61 songs, and 15 photos. Is something up with the phone, or have I really used close to 14 gigs of pure apps? Again, I find it hard to believe, but I'll take any advice. What can I do to gain more space? Jim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: itunes radio and skipping songs
Ok, I unfortunately didn't know you could create one of your own, where would you find that? I figured you could, but don't recall finding that option when I played around with it. I wasn't all that impressed with some of the preset stations, considering the fact that some of the titles of them didn't have much of a description, but some of them were pretty cool-sounding, so not really sure what I think of it as of yet. Will give it another shot though. On Sep 20, 2013, at 9:21 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi, > > Those are dimmed if your listening to the pre set featured stations.

BARD App Available in App Store
Hey all, I just wanted to let my fellow listers know that the NLS Bard app is now available in the app store. I found typing Bard Mobile and not just Bard was the quickest way to find it. Once installed you will need your user name and password to login, most likely your user name is your email. To view your books you will need to save them to your Wish List on your computer to view them and download them on your iPhone. I have only played around with the app briefly, but it seems fantastic so far.

Re: BARD App Available in App Store
Actually, you can add books to yur wish list from within the app in the get books tab, then download them once they're added there. When they're downloaded, they will appear in the bookshelf tab. I also love the tone and speed adjustments.

IOS 7 without the eye
Hi All, A number of issues that came by on this and other lists, have already been addressed in a wonderful and very recent book by Jonathan Mosen. His book is called IOS 7 without the eye. I bought it yesterday and it is absolutely a great read. If you are an iphone user already, this will tell you all you want to know about what's new, and which are the bugs in VoiceOver for the moment. This book specifically touches on all important new things that a blind user may want to be made aware of. Even for me, being a non-native speaker, everything is clear. It was written from a blindness perspective, and I would like to encourage you whole heartedly to go buy it. Just google for mosen ios without the eye and it will come up as one of the top results. I payed using paypal, so that is also an option. If you want to get up to speed with ios 7 as well, it's all I needed. Hth, Paul. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: itunes radio and skipping songs
I'm sure they anticipate it but what should they do? Say they normally have 100 servers handling all the load with maybe 20% extra capacity. If they anticipate the load on release day would take 1000 servers, do they just build like crazy only to later have 900 servers collect dust until the next big thing? I doubt that. So maybe they put in an extra 100 servers figuring they will need it sooner or later and just accept that not everybody can get in on launch day.

Re: youtube video embed problem
Max you have a Wordpress site, right? I think there's a visual editor where you click on that, or press the right-click button with whatever speech software you're using, then it brings up a window where you can paste the link in? I find that's the hardest thing to do on wordpress sites, add a link. The most important thing to make sure of is that it's got the correct code around it when you paste it, in other words href="website"yourtext the techie geeks on this list will correct me if I'm wrong. There may even be a shortcut with the keyboard to make it easier to imbed a link. You may also need to use a plugin through Jetpack for video as the links act a little differently, at least with WordPress they seem to.

With a developer account, I've had time to playaround with iOS 7 on my iPhone 4S over a month now. After updating to iOS 7, I found that the norwegian voice have changed, and to a new and quite unusable one. I immediatly reached out to the accessibility team at apple to report this mistake, and they said they couldn't help with unreleased software, so they "forwarded" me to the bug reporting tool on the developer page, wich is not that VoiceOver friendly. I managed to report a bug regarding the voice, and nothing have happened since. Yesterday, when I confirmed that the update was available, I sendt away a mail again to the accessibility team regarding this, and after a few mails, they said they forwarded my request to get back the old voice to the speech team. Since norwegians are few, I encourage norwegian VO-users to report the voice issue to apple. Also I was able to speak about the problem in the media. You can read the article here: http://www.digi.no/922924/iphone-snakker-daarligere-norsk For non-scandinavian, just use Google Translate. Are there someone here who can help in any way? We over here would be very thankful if so. Best regards David -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: IPhone search in ios7
Any ideas how we can access the iPhone search now? Obviously the home button no longer does it and flicking down with one finger doesn't work for us. Thanks.

Re: iOS 7 and Refreshable Braille Displays
That message has appeared for me, I believe. Try simply restarting the phone and, if that fails, forget the Brailliant in bluetooth settings. If you still have no luck, you could try a network settings reset, which will wipe out all bluetooth, wifi, and VPN profiles and settings.

Re: Accessing the different voices using voiceover and IOS7.
Speaking of the male Siri voice, is it only available in U.S. English? If so, how unfortunate for someone who prefers the Irish or Australian voices . . . or any other, for that matter. :) Christine On Sep 19, 2013, at 10:24 PM, Jessica Moss wrote: > I don't know if this applies specificly to IOS7, or voiceover in general, > sense I haven't done this in ages, but I've just updated, finally managed to > I think, download the enhanced voices, only to find all the available > languages, but no voices associated with them when I select them. > Is there a reason for this?

Re: iOS 7, the worse update for norwegians using VoiceOver
There is a similar issue with the UK British male voice, it now sounds a little wobbly, that's the best way I can explain it, even now the high quality voice is down the sound is less solid and refined than it used to be.

Re: New IOS and Apple Bluetooth Keyboard
Thanks. I looked for it being mentioned on Google, but I didn't see it mentioned on any accessibility websites. I've mentioned it to apple accessibility and got the usual response about not being able to comment on when it can be resolved. But I suppose this is the risk you take when you update to the first release of an operating system. Still, at least nothing seems to be massively broken in accessibility.

Hello, I got sent some ppt powerpoint presentations. I trie dopening them in preview but couldnt really read much. Is there a way to open these on the mac that will allow you to read the non-image text with vo? I suppose i could just print htem and scan and ocr them but if i could just read them that would be less cumbersome.
