Re: scheduling an Uber ride?

Again, once you hear the tipping button, swipe with one finger either to the 
right or left until you hear it say, “schedule in advance.” If you swipe in one 
direction and don’t hear it then swipe back in the opposite direction.

Have you kept the app updated? Perhaps you might want to check in the app store 
to see if there are any updates.

Still no luck. The only thing I see is a tipping button. I have looked 
everywhere and I cannot find it. I was told we do have it. I even logged off 
and back on to the app. Also, how do you delete places were you've been? My

On the following screen, you can change the date of the ride if it isn’t

your finger near the bottom of the screen, probably just above the Home button 
again and double tap to “set the date.”

On the following screen you will set your pick up location and destination.

Once you get the address set the next screen for type of Uber ride you want 
will come up automatically. If your good with the uber-x economy then again, 
just above the home button is a “schedule ride” button. Double tap it and your 
ride will be set.

If at any time you need to cancel the ride you can double check it under 
the “upcoming rides” area.

Once your wait time starts I don’t think it will notify you until your ride 
is at the location.

I do wish they would make communicating with the driver easier or at least 
more apparent on the screens.

Good luck.

Actually, there's two ways of doing it. In the screening, where you can say 
where too, there is a another button that says schedule in advance. This will 
take you to where you could also schedule a ride in advance. so we have the 
schedule and advanced ride button on the home screen, and then you also have it 
in the where to area. I hope this helps.

Smart NFC food packages might be coming to a store near you - CNET

Smart NFC food packages might be coming to a store near you - CNET
 
NFC technology would allow you to access product information with the tap of
your phone. 
Active & Intelligent Packaging Industry Association 
Smart packaging might be heading to a grocery store near you, allowing you
to access details about your food with a tap of your phone. 
The NFC Forum -- responsible for promoting the short-range wireless
technology -- announced it has partnered with the Active & Intelligent
Packaging Industry Association (AIPIA) to create interactive tags and labels
for food and other consumer products. It'll potentially allow you to
instantly read information on your phone before you buy something. 
You're probably familiar with NFC technology, which is often used for
e-tickets and mobile payments, especially since it's supported by most
modern phones. There's packaging that already has QR codes, but NFC
technology wouldn't require an app or scanning -- the data is just
tap-and-receive. 
According to AIPIA, incorporating this new technology into packaging allows
for "enhanced efficiency and security, reduced waste and better control in
sales and marketing." But there's no word as to when this technology will
officially hit the market, or which food brands will support it.

Apple iPhone 7 S Release Date, Price and Specs - CNET

2017-08-01 Thread M. Taylor
CNET Reviews - Saturday, July 29, 2017 at 5:00 AM
Apple iPhone 7 S Release Date, Price and Specs - CNET
The iPhone 8 isn't the only phone we expect Apple to deliver before the end
of the year. Nor is it the only iPhone rumored to be giving Apple a headache
at the moment. Apple is rumored to be developing an edition of the iPhone 8
that has a reflective finish.
 
Most of this season's renders, mockups, and design drawings have been of the
iPhone 8. Here, one shows the 10th anniversary edition's rumored reflective
finish.
Benjamin Geskin / Twittter 
The company's manufacturing woes, apparently driven by the technical
complexities of producing the dramatically redesigned 10th anniversary
edition iPhone -- possibly called the iPhone 8 -- have reportedly spread to
the rumored iPhone 7S and 7S Plus in recent weeks. Now, according to some
sources, all three forthcoming models are in danger of missing Apple's usual
September delivery date. (Though not everyone agrees.)
Apple typically delivers an "S" series upgrade in September in odd-numbered
years, like 2017. This year, however, Apple and its suppliers are said to be
struggling to mass produce the next flagship model, possibly called the
iPhone 8, as well as the iPhone 7S and 7S Plus. According to a persistent
series of reports by media, analysts, and supply chain sources, the debut of
the "S" series, which will likely be a modestly upgraded version of the
current generation iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, may be delayed. 
The iPhone 7S and iPhone 7S Plus are currently scheduled to start the final
phase of production in August -- months behind the normal timeline. This
could result in any number of previously unthinkable scenarios including a
postponed announcement, a significantly delayed ship date, or an
announcement followed by severe product shortages. As the drama continues to
unfold, we'll collect all of the rumors below.
iPhone 7S specs we might see:
•   Overall, an incremental update of the current generation iPhone 7
•   LCD display with TrueTone
•   Apple's next-generation processor (the A10X or A11)
•   Physical home button with support for Touch ID
•   iOS 11 (preview)
•   Wireless charging
•   Aluminum and/or glass case
•   Enhanced waterproofing
•   New color options including red
•   2GB of RAM
•   Priced around $649 (iPhone 7S) and $749 (iPhone 7S Plus)
Announcement and release dates
True to form, Apple has officially announced nothing about the iPhone 7S or
7S Plus. And yet if this was a typical year, we'd still have confidence that
the company was set to introduce and ship the "S" series sometime during the
first half of September. According to the relentless drumbeat of rumors,
however, an unprecedented set of manufacturing challenges has knocked this
year's release schedule into disarray. 
For months, we've heard speculation that Apple may not have the flagship
iPhone 8 ready to go until late 2017. More recently, the postponement buzz
has extended this foreboding prediction to include the "S" series; in
mid-July, Economic News Daily (via MacRumors) reported that all forthcoming
iPhone models are facing "production delays." Nothing is certain -- and we
still may see the iPhone 7S and 7S Plus appear right on schedule in early
September. But October, November, and beyond remain distinct possibilities.
What's new with the 2017 iPhone 'S' series upgrade?
  
The two on the left are said to be iPhone 8 components; the two on the right
are said to be coming to the iPhone 7S and iPhone 7S Plus, respectively.
kamisky via reddit 
Most reports suggest that phone sizes will remain the same, setting the
stage for a 4.7-inch iPhone 7S and 5.5-inch iPhone 7S Plus. The "S" family
is expected to have an aluminum alloy chassis (via DigiTimes), while the
iPhone 8 may get a glass and steel chassis. The forthcoming 7S Plus is
nearly certain to have two cameras on the back, consistent with the current
generation 7 Plus, though it's conceivable that the entry-level iPhone 7S
could also get two rear-facing lenses in order to make fuller use of the AR
capabilities featured in next generation of Apple's mobile operating
system's (more on that below).   
Much of the speculation about the iPhone 8, and one of the major factors
said to be putting a crimp in production, involves a rumored virtual home
button and its integration with Touch ID. The iPhone 7S and 7S Plus,
however, are expected to stick with the current generation's conventional
setup: a fingerprint sensor embedded in a physical home button. We do hear
that the iPhone 7S and 7S Plus will get a performance upgrade; all three
2017 models are said to use Apple's next-generation A11 chip. 
Most of the "wireless charging" rumors -- technically, it's called inductive
charging -- have revolved around the iPhone 8. But the CEO of Wistron, a
Taiwanese iPhone assembler, reportedly revealed that that an upcoming
5.5-inch iPhone model -- assumed to be the 7S Plus -- would be waterproof

Re: scheduling an Uber ride?

2017-08-01 Thread Eileen Scrivani
Sarai, 

I just used this last week and it worked like a charm. Near the bottom of the 
screen, somewhere above the Home button, is a button that says “schedule a ride 
in advance.” If you don’t locate it then swipe either right or left until you 
hear it say just that and then double tap the button.

On the following screen, you can change the date of the ride if it isn’t the 
current date. Then go down a bit and there are picker buttons to select 
hour/minutes and either AM/PM. Once you have the date of your ride then move 
your finger near the bottom of the screen, probably just above the Home button 
again and double tap to “set the date.”

On the following screen you will set your pick up location and destination.

Once you get the address set the next screen for type of Uber ride you want 
will come up automatically. If your good with the uber-x economy then again, 
just above the home button is a “schedule ride” button. Double tap it and your 
ride will be set.

If at any time you need to cancel the ride you can double check it under the 
“upcoming rides” area.

Once your wait time starts I don’t think it will notify you until your ride is 
at the location.

I do wish they would make communicating with the driver easier or at least more 
apparent on the screens.

Good luck.

OT: seeking feedback from any who have switched from JAWS to NVDA

2017-08-01 Thread Donna Goodin
Hi all,

I'm considering putting NVDA rather than JAWS on a PC I will be using at work.  
I would be interested in feedback from anyone on list who has either done this, 
or tried to do it, and been unsatisfied.  Since this is not Apple related, 
please respond to me privately at doniado...@me.com .
TIA,
Donna

Re: Qobuz music streaming

2017-08-01 Thread Ronald van Rhijn
Hello Anne,

Some weeks ago I have used Qobuz for a few weeks with different operating 
systems. Only on iOS and Android I could do everything I needed to do. The 
players for Mac OSX and Windows arent fully accessible. I’ve contacted Qobuz 
and told me they are working on it, for waht thats worth.
Apart from the fact the layouts of the OSX and Windows players, which are 
confusing at times due to the use of only changing parts of the screen when 
selecting an option, not all buttons are labeled (and could’n be labeled for 
some reason) the players use some pop-up boxes for adding to playlist etc, and 
these arent’ spoken bij Voice Over. For me thats a real deal breaker, not to be 
able to add tracks to a playlist. so I canceled my trial and will have a look 
sometime next year if its been improved.
 
HTH

Qobuz music streaming

2017-08-01 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello everyone,

I’ve been asked if the music streaming service Qobuz is accessible on the Mac 
with VoiceOver. As it doesn’t interest me personally, and I don’t want to sign 
up for a trial period and then get spammed forever afterwards, I was wondering 
whether anyone here has tried it. Apparently, Qobuz is supposed to provide very 
high quality sound which would be lost on me anyway as my hearing isn’t that 
great these days.

Cheers,

Anne
