3 Questions About iOS 7
Hi all, I hope this message finds you well. I recently installed iOS 7 and am really enjoying using it. However, I am repeatedly facing 3 main problems. 1. If someone calls me when the phone's screen is locked, the speaker gets turned on when I answer the call. Consequently, I have to shake the phone in order to turn off the speaker. 2. The screen gets dimmed and locked after the prescribed time duration even while I'm using Fleksy. This makes it very difficult to continuously type via Fleksy for more than a minute because the phone automatically gets locked. 3. Many a time,the speaker's volume gets reduced to 13% even if I don't do anything. As a result, I often end up missing important phone calls because I can't hear the ringtone. Has anyone else faced these problems? Is there any way to fix them? Your help would be highly appreciated.

Re: 3 Questions About iOS 7
Did you go in to General and explore some of the settings like the locking of your screen? Have you also read the IOS latest user guide or listened to any podcast regarding IOS 7? Just so we know what you have done to fix anything on your phone. Jonnathan Mossen's latest book on IOS7 is a good resource. Perhaps you could write to Jonnathan or visit his website for more details as that tells you what is new with Voice Over. Kind Regards Kawal.

Re: 3 Questions About iOS 7
Hello, I can confirm this behavior in fleksy. I’m guessing this isn’t an IOS issue but a fleksy one. In regards to ringer volume, you might want to go into settings/sounds and turn change with buttons off. This way you can’t change the volume of ringtones and alerts with the volume buttons.

Bricked my Macbook Air. Is a genius the only option?
Hi everyone, This morning I started the latest software update on my Macbook Air and maybe about half way through my two year old ran through the office, hooked the power cord on her foot, and yanked it out of the laptop. Now there is no power, no sounds, no signs of life at all. Fortunately I have a few backups so I'm not dying or anything but is there any tricks that I can do on my own before taking it to a genius? Thanks for any tips! Happy almost Halloween! Mike M -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Bricked my Macbook Air. Is a genius the only option?
Have you googled the problem? I just did and there seems to be a way to restore, so maybe if you can boot it into recover mode things will work. Unfortunately, this is not accessible, so you will need sighted help.

Strange problems with fonts and text attributes in Text Edit
Hi, I having problems changing fonts and adding text attributes in tExt Edit. I'm not sure whether Voiceover is incorrectly reporting what I'm trying to do or whether I'm doing something wrong (probably the latter!). When I select text and bold it, whether that's a word or a line, Voiceover reports that all the text is bold. When I go to change the font, I do a select all, and press command t to bring up the fonts. I interact with the table of font families and change it to something like helvetica, but when I go back into my document, the font hasn't changed. Am I missing something?

Re: Bricked my Macbook Air. Is a genius the only option?
Hi, Was it in the middle of the download of new updates or the installation? Losing power from the adaptor doesn't usually cause much grief unless your battery is more or less toast and the MBA won't work without the power adaptor. You may need to reset your System Management Controller (SMC) to get everything back on track. To do this: • Plug your power adaptor into the wall and into your MBA. • wait a couple seconds then press your power button to turn the MBA on. It should start up if there wasn't something firmware-ish being installed when the power was kicked out. If that doesn't do it, you'll need some sighted assistance to determine if the power adaptor is still able to send power to the MBA and/or to determine if you have any batter life. Beyond that, the Apple Store or a certified Apple Tech may be your best choice. Later... • Hold down the left-side shift-control-option and power button at the same time, then release them all simultaneously.

Re: Matched Items download?
Hi, Yes, you can download all the music that you've matched. They should still be in the Cloud unless you told them to be deleted from the Cloud when you deleted them from your computer. In your iTunes Prefs, in the Store pane, make sure that Show in the Cloud Purchases is checked. The songs that you've matched should still be listed in your Music Library and you can select them, then press VO-shift-m and choose Download. If you select all, you can use the same VO-shift-m command to download all instead of having to do this individually. HTH. Later...

Re: Bricked my Macbook Air. Is a genius the only option?
HI Mike, You mentioned you have a backup of your data? If you do, try starting your MBA and holding down the command and r keys when the chime sounds. Hold them for a few seconds. (at least 5 ish) Once you do that, you can then enable VoiceOver by pressing function-command-F5. This may take a few seconds to work. I sometimes seemingly need to do this a few times. ;) You'll see a table which should show you four options. One of these options should be Reinstall OS 10. From here you can reinstall a clean copy of OSX. Once you do that, you can then restore from your Time Machine backup. Hope this helps!
