Re: What's the easiest way to remove my old iPhone from my list of devices?

[Donna Goodin]

So when I go to services and interact, the first thing I'm hearing is Manage, 
that seems to allow me to manage my iCloud storage.  If I VO arrow to the  
left, my Mac starts making this dreadful noise, sort of like the one it makes 
when you search in the iTunes store.  That seems to apply to two different tab 
areas, as I can hear a noise that sounds like it is moving over to a different 
tab.  Once I VO left past all of that, I'm at iCloud storage.  That's what I 
see when I'm not interacting with the table.  And tabbing only seems to take me 
into the table.  
Cheers,
Donna

 Hi,
 Try resetting the old phone to factory settings.
 I did that Thursday on  an iPad mini2 and it said this will also remove

pinging my phone from my Mac?

[Donna Goodin]

Hi all,

So exploring the whole device removal issue got me curious about something 
else.  Is there any way to ping your phone--i.e. make it play the sound--from 
your Mac without going to the iCloud website?
TIA,
Donna

Re: Really odd situation with app updates on I O S9

Hi,
Resetting network settings doesn’t remove Bluetooth device pairings and such. 
At least, it never has for me.
Hope this helps,

Re: What's the easiest way to remove my old iPhone from my list of devices?

[Alex Hall]

I'm honestly at a loss, as I've never seen anything like that. I'd suggest the 
Find My Phone removal method I put forth in my previous message, as that seems 
like it'd be the easiest.

6s and touch to open contexual menu

[Regina Alvarado]

I know this is a mac list, but since Jonathan did a podcast on the 6s Plus, I 
thought I would send along a tip. There is nothing to say an app does not work 
to bring up the contectual menu, but there is a definite difference in the feel 
of the vibration. When an app will not work, the vibration is longer by a bit 
and there are 2 beats to it. When it works there is only one small beat. When 
you immediately swipe to the right the contectual menu is right there. It is 
wonderful for calendar and notes and reminders. Hope this helps someone.

Re: iPhone 6s Plus Audio Demonstration

[Grant]

The link was embedded in his message. Here it is: 
http://soundcloud.com/jmosen/6splus 

Searching for the word “download” then doing a VO+SPACE on that link will cause 
the audio file to be saved to your Downloads folder in Mac OS X.

I agree, excellent podcast Jonathan. Thanks for sharing your impressions and 
obvious enthusiasm and excitement about your new phone. Like you, I wonder what 
practical benefits we may end up seeing with 3D Touch, but the possibilities 
are there. I’m still debating whether to upgrade from the 5S, but I do have 
some concerns about how easy I’d get used to the larger size.

Re: talking dashboard?

[Alex Hall]

Editing: I'm not sure, but I know Script Editor has some odd problems in auto 
save. Actually, that's much of the reason I haven't worked on the scripts in a 
while; I once lost a *lot* of changes that I had to rewrite. Try save anyway, 
and be very sure you're working on a *copy* of the scripts, not the originals.

The slow speech problem is easily fixed. I default to system speech if VO is 
off or doesn't allow scripting access, and it sounds like your VO doesn't. Just 
open the VoiceOver Utility, select General in the table (it should be selected 
by default), and check the "allow VoiceOver to be controlled by AppleScript" 
checkbox.

Re: talking dashboard?

[E.T.]

Alex,
   Can the Auto Save be turned off? I tried doing a normal save but it 
seems that Auto Save still wants to get involved. I also will be in the 
habit of saving copies of edited scripts to a thumb drive.


   Took care of the slow speech, thanks.

Re: talking dashboard?

[deedra waters]

Alex, the biggest thing for me currently is the wifi battery and time/date.  
Reminders is also an issue but it’s not  critical but it would be useful.

Reason why i need something like that is because The macbook and i move around 
a lot combine with needing to check that info  often. I  was mostly curious 
however if that info was combine somewhere. into 1. If you are willing, I would 
love to get this info because it is important to me.

Has anyone else experienced an issue of being unable to create a thread with 
multiple recipients?  Once I've added the first recipient, I get put in a 
messages thread with that person, and the Add Contact Button is gone.  Anyone 
found a solution?

Re: talking dashboard?

[E.T.]

Hi Alex,
   Had forgotten about this when I upgraded to Yosemite a few months 
ago so had to start over.


   When I edit scripts, I get an error regarding auto save and the 
options are to revert or save anyway. How can I resolve this.


   Then when I execute one of these scripts, the speech is much slower. 
Where do I need to go to change this? Thanks much.

Re: talking dashboard?

[Alex Hall]

They aren't really designed that way, because the more information a script has 
to grab, the longer it takes. If you assign each one you want to a keystroke, 
it's easy to just hit the first keystroke, listen, then hit the second. I 
suppose I could combine a couple or three, if you really want me to.

Re: talking dashboard?

hi,

Is there a script anywhere for talking dashboard that causes it to read all the 
info? Kind of like: if i want to hear all of the info then i could do something

to be able to hear the time and date along with maybe the battery and some

Re: talking dashboard?

[E.T.]

   Just an idea. Assign numbers to the scripts you want to use the most 
then hold the option key and press each number one at t time to hear the 
info. Would that work for you?


   I have only edited the date and time script so far. Its only 
necessary to edit the line that starts with set template. I played with 
this until I got what I wanted. Just be mindful of the keywords used and 
the syntax. I broke the script once or twice but no damage resulted.

Re: can't sync iphone

Jeff,
   I upgraded my iPad to iOS 9. Just now I connected it to the Mac 
which is running iTunes 12.3. It looks like iTunes defaults to something 
new with HTML content. Stop interacting and vo left arrow and you will 
be back in familiar country. I am going to look at prefs later and see 
if I can change what iTunes opens to.

Re: accessible blogging software for mac

Hi!

Yes! This is what I use as well, from
http://www.red-sweater.com
I have also heard that MacJournal works well with VoiceOver from here:
http://marinersoftware.com/products/macjournal/

Those are definitely some options. Anyone feel free to correct me on 
MacJournal. I heard good things about it and tried it very briefly, but did not 
find it compelling enough to switch away from MarsEdit.

Re: size of the Plus (was: Improved speaker on iPhone 6s)

[Robin]

You wanna know what Apple WillDo ToChange TheLook

Samsung's GalaxyS6Edge & GalaxyS6Edge+


I'm specifically Referrin'To the CurvedEdges

Apple appeared to Copy the Placement of the 
PowerKey by MovingIt from the TopCenter-Right to 
the RightSide as illustrated on Samsung'sGalaxy 
MobilePhones beginning with the GalaxyS5 MayBe even the GalaxyS4


I'm not sure if Apple will do this, I just simply 
predicting it will happenn BasedOn PastExploits

I got tired of the 5S as the design hadn't

was looking for something different.  No doubt 
Apple will not be changing the design of their

I don't yet have one, but in preparation for 
upgrading, I wanted to see how the Plus would 
fit into my life. I have a cardboard cutout of a 
Plus, with some popsicle sticks taped to the 
back to give it structure. I carried it for a 
day, then attached my iPhone 5 to it for the 
next day. Both days, I was amazed to find that 
the cardboard Plus felt large in my hand, but 
small in my pocket. It's very thin and light, 
and is longer and narrower than you might 
imagine. Not being a more boxy shape lets it 
rest in my pocket better, and I had no problems 
with it the two days I tested it with my model. 
While not an actual phone, this gave me 
confidence that the Plus will be just fine, 
which is good as it's the one I was leaning 
towards. The better battery life, larger braille 
input area, landscape mode for apps, and image 
stabilization are all things I'm looking forward to.


You can easily print out the same template I 
used, and carry around a cardboard version of a 
Plus, to see how it'll work for you. Yes, it 
might require minor adjustments in position or 
grip, but there are definite advantages and I 
encourage you to consider the change to a Plus 
as just that: a change, rather than looking for 
something the same size as the 5S but with 
better internals. Of course, if the plusses 
don't outweigh the minuses for you, there's 
nothing wrong with the 6S, that's why Apple 
makes both sizes. Give the Plus a shot though; 
you might be pleasantly surprised.

use Braille screen input, the larger screen 
real estate you have to work with might make 
typing easier. On the other hand, are folks 
finding the phones easy to carry when out and 
about? Do they fit comfortably in your pockets? 
I use my iPhone 5S on my commutes and often I 
don’t even need to take it out of my pocket 
to use the touch screen. I have a transit 
widget that I check to monitor bus departure 
times, and I use apps like BlindSquare and 
Google Maps as well. And of course, I can 
listen to music or audiobooks while commuting, 
too. If I couldn’t carry the phone in my 
pocket and had to carry it in a backpack or 
briefcase, that would be quite a bit less 
convenient for me. How do you folks feel about 
this—for those whoo’ve used the larger phones 
for a year now, do you eventually adjust to the larger screen size?

Re: talking dashboard?

[E.T.]

   Its an option you can do right away while Alex looks into combining 
some.


   Just save the zip file and put the scripts into a folder you want to 
run them from. You might even like them as they are and not do any 
editing. I added 4 or 5 and only edited the date and time, the others 
were fine for me. The only thing I changed was from 24 hour to 12 hour 
format and changed what was spoken to make it sound better. "The time is 
now..." for example.

what I wanted. Just be mindful of the keywords used and the syntax. I broke the

I also think that mac journal from mariner software is pretty good for blogging 
as well.
Have use both and think that maybe mars edit is maybe just a bit better for 
blogging and mac journal has more general journaling options.

Re: Installing Windows on Mac Question

[Brent Harding]

I thought I read that if it was somewhat newer than that even that you couldn't 
go beyond Lion or Mountain Lion, and if one doesn't have those in your purchase 
list, those machines get stuck at what they came with. I'm not sure how true 
that is though.

  Hi. You won't have any problems installing on your Mac. I used to have 
Bootcamp but now I've switched back to VMWare Fusion which is all I need but 
that's personal preference. I apologize in advance for going off topic a bit, 
but how old is the MacBook you are using? If it's 2007 or above, you can update 
to the latest version of OS X which is Yosemite and even update to El Capitan 
when it comes out. To find out the year of the Mac, open the menu bar with VO+M 
and go down until you hear about this Mac. Enter on that and you should see all 
the info about the Mac.

Hello all, 

Before I ask my question, I want to provide the following information: I 
have been a Windows user for quite some time and would like to continue to do 
so. I have also recently taken up the Mac and have been fortunate enough to 
have an older MacBook Pro given to me while I learn this operating system. 
Unfortunately, it is my understanding that the older MacBook Pro at my disposal 
cannot be updated beyond OSX 10.6. On the Windows side my preferred screen 
reader is JAWS but I also have NVDA and Window-Eyes installed. I would like to 
add right here that I really do not want to make this a Mac versus PC 
conversation; as a blind computer I am grateful that I have access to both. 

Question
I was considering acquiring both a new Windows 10 laptop as well as a new 
MacBook Pro. But since I am not independently wealthy, I wondered if it would 
not be more cost effective purchasing only the MacBook Pro and then installing 
Windows on that system. I would like to know how well Windows runs on the Mac 
and get an idea of the difficulty of actually accomplishing this feat. 
Additionally, are there any recommended specs, such as the amount of RAM or 
preferred processor, for this type of setup? I am fairly competent with a 
Windows PC but still consider myself a novice on the Mac; either may or may not 
be of help during the process of installing Windows on a Mac. Any suggestions 
and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Mauricio

Re: Installing Windows on Mac Question

[Shawn Krasniuk]

No, anyone with a 2007 Mac or later can jump from Snow Leopard to Yosemite. I 
think that'll be true once El Capitan gets released this Wednesday.

Re: What's the easiest way to remove my old iPhone from my list of devices?

[Jeffrey Shockley]

Hi,
It’s definitely easier on the phone, that’s for sure. :)
What you do is go to Settings/iCloud. Then, find where it has your name, and 
double tap that button. Then, a new page will come up, and you double tap the 
Devices button. At least, if I remember right, that’s how I just did it.
Hope this helps,
Jeffrey

 There's a services group, inside of which is a table of iCloud services. 
 Interact with that group, but *not* the table. It sounds like you're in 
 the table, the first item of which is indeed iCloud Drive.

 Hi all,
 
 Trying to remove my old phone from my list of devices, and not having 
 much luck.  So far I have been trying to do it from iCloud.com.  Is 
 there a better way to do this?  If not, how do you do it from the 
 website?  I've selected my old phone, and VO says remove Device, but 
 when I press VO-Space or enter, nothing happens.
 TIA,
 Donna

Re: Installing Windows on Mac Question

[Shawn Krasniuk]

Hi. You won't have any problems installing on your Mac. I used to have Bootcamp 
but now I've switched back to VMWare Fusion which is all I need but that's 
personal preference. I apologize in advance for going off topic a bit, but how 
old is the MacBook you are using? If it's 2007 or above, you can update to the 
latest version of OS X which is Yosemite and even update to El Capitan when it 
comes out. To find out the year of the Mac, open the menu bar with VO+M and go 
down until you hear about this Mac. Enter on that and you should see all the 
info about the Mac.
