Re: I need a good bluetooth headset recommendation

2016-09-07 Thread David Chittenden
Well, I like what I hear about Apple's new Air Pods. Yesterday, I played with 
the new Motorola branded Verve completely wireless earbuds. They are also 
rather expensive (more than the Air Pods, and are a bit large / awkward. They 
completely block out sounds, and they sound rather good. They get mixed reviews.

Until Xmas, when I plan on getting my very own Air Pods, I use my tiny S530 
earpiece. The original version is currently being sold out, so is around $4 and 
up on eBay. The new S530 sounds better, uses micro USB charging, and is an 
astounding $10 on eBay. I just received my new ones yesterday. The talk time is 
almost 4 hours, and the delay is very little.

Of course, the Air Pods, according to Apple, will have no delay, so will work 
well with VoiceOver.

No. If you have jump on demand, you bring your phone back, get the new one, and 
continue on. Depending on the cost of your old phone versus the new one, your 
payment could change. As long as you keep the service, you won't owe anything 
on the phone, other than the monthly payment of course. If however, you 
terminate service, then you owe them for the full price of the phone. But there 
is no contract as such with respect to how long you have to keep their phone 
service.

Are you saying you have to fully pay off the current phone before trading in 
for a new phone minus the minimal trade-in value of the phone? If so, Apple's 
program is a bit different. When a new phone comes out, the phone you are using 
can be traded in for the updated model. The contract is reset to two years at 
that point.

T-Mobile doesn't have contracts. For that matter, the other carriers have these 
no contract plans too. I think they all have some sort of plan similar to the 
T-Mobile one. You don't have to have paid off the price of the whole phone 
before you turn it in and get a new one on the T-Mobile jump on demand plan. If 
you don't have that specific thing, you can still get a phone and pay it over a 
number of months, but in order to get a new phone from T-Mobile, you must pay 
off the old one first. Then you can either keep it or trade it in on your new 
phone, and of course, what you get for the trade-in won't be that great. But 
yes, you could get an iPhone every year on the jump on demand program. In fact, 
I'm not remembering this right probably but I think you can actually change 
phones more than once a year. I forget how long you have to have kept a phone 
before you're eligible to turn it in and get another one.

Re: The special I phone programme.

2016-09-07 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
As far as I know, I didn't think T-Mobile did! contracts.  At least, not 
anymore.  Correct me, if i'm wrong.  I thought that was what now made T-Mobile 
so unique from a lot of other carriers.

Re: Duxbury for Mac and Embossers

2016-09-07 Thread E.T.

Anders,
   I took another look at the specs of the Everest v5 and find its the 
same weight but the sheet feeder adds to the dimensions. Its also about 
$800 more than the Basic D v5. But I like the idea of being able to put 
the thing anywhere and send jobs via wifi. And a sheet feeder would make 
it more portable as well. So I will put this in my letter to Santa and 
wait for the jolly old man in red in December!

  The only difference betweem the Everest and Basic is the Everest is sheet

OK Scott. You put out some pretty harsh language and accusations against 
Jonathan on this list earlier today. You said you'd seen the phone and seeing 
that it can charge and have the ability to use the older headphones with the 
adapter that Apple is including. How will this work with the included adapter? 
That is what you were saying, is it not? Thanks for clarifying.

Hi!
Well there is a setting in the braille settings menu called liblouise which 
changes how the printed material looks.
You can change braille tables there.
I haven’t changed this in a while so i have to look and get back.

Re: and you can charge and have audio at the same time over 3.5 adapter

2016-09-07 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Mary, that's correct. The adapter that ships with the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus 
does not allow you to charge at the same time as you have wired headphones 
plugged in.
I've had this verified by sighted people who saw the adapter displayed on the 
keynote, and looked at the adapter on Apple's site.

Re: and you can charge and have audio at the same time over 3.5 adapter

2016-09-07 Thread Mary Otten
Hi all. Over on the iPhone list, there are people saying that the pictures of 
the adapter that's going to come with the new iPhone 7 do not show the ability 
to plug in headphones and charger at the same time. Since this is a big deal, 
or has been made an even bigger deal now, I would be curious for those of you 
who say that it's possible to explain how. Is there a splitter? I'm just trying 
to figure out why the images on apples own website would appear to show just 
the one plug for lightning and the one for the headphones, not any kind of 
splitter making charging possible. Not trying to start a war. Just trying to 
understand how it will work. For my personal use case, it's not a big deal. I 
can't remember ever charging my phone and using wired headphones at the same 
time.

the water would come out and it still worked.  Would Samsung do that?  Are they 
just copying each other or are Samsung smart watches not able to go in the

Re: The special I phone programme.

2016-09-07 Thread Mary Otten
Don't hold your breath waiting for Apple to do this program with a Mac. People 
tend to keep their max for several years. The whole point of this program is to 
get people on board so they upgrade their iPhones as often or more often than 
they used to when carriers subsidized phones, and you could essentially get one 
every two years. It's also supposed to take the sting out of the high cost of 
the phone. You get to pay for it over time. I didn't use the Apple program. I 
used the one through T-Mobile. But they're fairly similar.

Also, one more thing, the main Capital One app (this is different than

As you swipe from account to account, it does not read each card
product properly.
In these types of emails I also usually include a link for Apple's iOS
developer resources on accessibility and VoiceOver:
https://developer.apple.com/accessibility/ios/

Email already sent to Capital One!

Re: and you can charge and have audio at the same time over 3.5 adapter

2016-09-07 Thread Daniel Miller
While I agree that this is being blown way out of proportion, according to the 
images that are on the Apple website and in the store app, there is not a pass 
the report for charging with the new lightning to 3.5mm  adapter. That would 
probably explain why it's only nine dollars to replace it.

Re: Please Join Me in Sending VoiceOver Feedback to CapitalOne Regarding The Current Version of Their Wallet App

2016-09-07 Thread Mika Pyyhkala
Hi,
Thanks I've noticed this also I have three Capital One cards, and as
an aside they have a good promo right now with Quick Silver you get a
$15 Uber credit after every 9 rides.

I will send in a request about the app as well, and alert some people
working on accessibility with financial organizations.

One final tidbit, again OT, is Capital One has an Alexa skill.

Best,
Mika Pyyhkala

Please Join Me in Sending VoiceOver Feedback to CapitalOne Regarding The Current Version of Their Wallet App

2016-09-07 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

I would greatly appreciate your support in sending a VoiceOver feedback
report to CapitalOne regarding the latest release of their iOS Wallet app.

I have already written the report so all you need to do is to paste it into
a new email, either in its entirety or modified as you see fit, with a
subject line of "Wallet App Feedback", without the quote marks.  

Please email your report to:
wal...@capitalone.com

[BEGIN REPORT]
Subject:  Wallet App Feedback

Hello,

VoiceOver accessibility has been broken in the current version of the
CapitalOne Wallet app for iOS, released on September 7, 2016.

Problem 1:
It is no longer possible to switch between credit cards when VoiceOver is
enabled.  VoiceOver is Apple's software screen reading solution for the
blind and low vision.

Problem 2:
The Feedback option is mislabeled.  This is to say, VoiceOver mistakenly
reads the Feedback item in the Settings area as "Privacy Policy".

I Fervently request that these issues be addressed as soon as possible as I
and countless other blind and low vision CapitalOne customers have come to
greatly depend upon this tool.

Thank you.
[END REPORT]

Thank you all for your support on this one.

Mark

Re: and you can charge and have audio at the same time over 3.5 adapter

2016-09-07 Thread Scott Granados
They showed charging the phone and pods at the same time and I actually held an 
adapter that has a port for your standard lightning adapter and another for the 
8th inch jack.

Also, someone was just corrected on CNBC for raising the charging and listening 
to music concern and pointed at the adapter, you might look there for more 
detail.

Re: Some interesting rumours regarding 3.5 mm jack issue on the iPhone seven

2016-09-07 Thread Scott Granados
I saw the iPhone early but really couldn’t admit to that until the conference 
was over.

That’s one reason I was calling people out so much because I held a charger / 
adapter combo so you could charge and have an 8th inch jack at the same time.  
You had Jonathan and others whipping people in to a frenzy for nothing.  (well 
to generate blog traffic but what ever)  Was very hard not to let it slip.

Also get ready for 450 megabits to the handset.  There’s a very very fast 
cellular modem included with even more frequency bands.

taken on my iphone.  It has .mov extension.  I need to give it to somebody who 
has a Windows machine to view.  Am I right in thinking that it would have to be 
converted to a different format so that it can be viewed in Windows Media 
Player?  If yes, how can I achieve this?

Please help, this is urgent.

Many thanks

Andrew

   Do you know about the  character viewer OS X? Enable it in System 
prefs, keyboard. Then you can find all the various special characters 
one might ever need, even hidden ones.

It is unicode value 249 if that helps.

So, on windows, you could turn on your numlock, hold down the alt key,

That would give you the U-grov.

Hi Scott,
As for the head phone jack, we will adapt to what ever apples new  "design" 
brings so lets all wait and "see"!

Why waist all that lead! ;)
Just grab a 5 pound sledge hammer like hillary's staff uses to destroy ! 
:)Galaxy S5 & BlackBerry Smart phones"!
Besides the hammer is reusable and you don't have to worry about reloading it!
Hey Scott? you use to also hunt big game?
BOW was my preference!
Apples were involved but they were hanging on the trees with the "bucks" 
underneath! ;)

Need help typing Spanish characters

2016-09-07 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, I'm totally stumped!

I am trying to type a spanish document, but no matter what I do, I cannot for 
the life of me figure out how to type the U-Grov.  I know how to do a U acute.  
Obviously, all 5 of your vowels can be done with Option+E, followed by the 
letter.  So for example:

Option+E then A=á

Option+E then E=é

Option+E then I=í

Option+E then O=ó

Now, here's where things get interesting.

Option+E then U=ú

But how do I get the U-grov?

It is unicode value 249 if that helps.

So, on windows, you could turn on your numlock, hold down the alt key, and then 
on the num pad, while holding down alt, type 0249.

That would give you the U-grov.  

(ù)

This is used for words like say...  lingùe

Any help?  I just don't know what keys with the option key to hit.  I really 
don't wanna invoke the spanish keyboard layout.

Chris.

Re: system dialogue that won't go away

Stacy,
Do you have keyboard commander turned on? If so then just doing your
keyboard commander keystroke and X should start an email message with a
screen shot.

Best Wishes,

Re: My command Key sometimes does not work

2016-09-07 Thread Phil Halton
It sounds to me like you don't have anything selected or copied in order for 
copy and paste to actually work. You will probably find that those commands are 
grayed out in the menus and won't work because there's nothing copied or 
selected for the commands to work with.

Hello my friends:
seems that you can not get my problem:
my command key is not working with some keys some times, like copy,
paste, move to trash, but in the same window, it can work with w to
close the window. so I think that the command itself is working ok,
but why is this? is there some situations that if I press something
before the command, it is not working?
and in the same window when I re open it again, the commands copy,
paste, and move to trash  are working with the command key.
and the commands themselves are working through the edit menu, but I
neeed to achieve my thigs faster, so I need your explanation.

I can't understand  concerning the cut command, can't we make cut on
the root of the mac, or at any place?

I don’t think the QC headphones have upgradable firmware, at least mine don’t

They are great headphones though.  Little heavy on the battery usage but the

Yeah a 308 round is what the M60 shoots. This is a round capable of taking down 
a helicopter or advancing troops and you want to rabbit hunt with it.:)  Bambi 
yes, deer would be perfect or elk or caribou but rabbits, not so much..  Come 
to visit the US and I’ll take you to shoot my M16 or the 308 Remington 
autoloader and you can put all the 223 or 308 you want down range.:)  We can

Re: Some interesting rumours regarding 3.5 mm jack issue on the iPhone seven

2016-09-07 Thread Scott Granados
Yes, this seems to be the top end device now.

I have to say, mine is really growing on me.

There’s a smoothness about it with my 6s+ running IOS 10 that’s missing in the 
legend.  Weird stuff is gone like music starting randomly and the lag seems 
improved.  Still there a little but no where near  the lag of the edge for 
example.

Siri also works very well and doesn’t cut off sometimes.  It’s not a 
revolutionary update but it’s just a smoothing out of some of the few rough 
edges of the legend.

Remember, I’m a very very picky bluetooth person so when I say rough edges most 
others would probably not even notice or care the things I’m talking about are 
very minimal differences but when you add them up the experience with the 5220 
is just more enjoyable as a whole.

I'm in full agreement with you mark. The headphone jack removal has a huge

Re: lables compatible in pages?

2016-09-07 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Zoe,

There is no label template provided in Pages, but you could create your own if

You would need to create a template with text boxes of the appropriate size and 
in the correct positions.

Cheers,

Anne
