Re: a question about apple care, for an unlocked iphone.

2017-11-30 Thread Dennis Clark

Hello Mark, Cliff  and list ,
I purchased a computer from Apple today, and they told me that I had 60 days 
to purchase Apple Care. It kind of sounds like it depends on which Apple 
employee one is talking with.

Best,
Dennis

Hello Cliff,

I stand corrected.

I thought it was 60 days but, now that I think about it, when last I was 
in an Apple store, I was told 30 days from the date of purchase, as well.


I don't know why I cannot get that 60-day time period out of my head. 
(smile).


I apologize for any confusion I may have caused.

Mark, I called apple about this last friday, and they told me apple care 
had to be purchased within 30 days of any device.  When were you told 60 
days?

Karen,

In the U.S., one can add Apple Care Plus to an iPhone up to 60 days
from the date of purchase.  This, of course, is assuming that one buys
the device from an authorized retailer.

I would expect the same or similar would be true in Canada, also.

Subject: a question about apple care, for an unlocked iphone.

Hi folks,
I do hope I have the service plan name correctly.
As of December 1, all Canadian mobile providers must unlock phones
free of charge.  I recently got an  IPhone 5..more to the type, that
is tied to Bell, and that I
intend   having unlocked.
Once that is done I want to have an apple genius help me do some
things, add all the enhanced voices the phone will support for example.
As I have no other functional apple product, and to insure things are
done well with some backup in person I want to buy the Apple care
support service.
Can I do this even if I did not buy the phone from Apple directly? My
hope is that as I acquire the other apple things I desire, like a
slightly older macbook pro, the care package will extend to those items 
as well.

Possible?
Kare

Subject: Oh look, Apple is 'getting sloppy' now - BGR

Oh look, Apple is 'getting sloppy' now
By Zach Epstein.
Well, Apple fans, I have some good news and some bad news for you this morning. 
The good news is that it looks like Apple's new iPhone X is such a smash hit 
that Apple bears are giving the whole "Apple is doomed" spiel a rest for a 
while. A report from earlier this week suggested that Apple sold
6 million iPhone X units. during the Black Friday weekend alone. The remarkable 
feat is made even more mind-boggling when one considers that Black Friday is 
all about deals, and there are no deals at all on Apple's $1,000+ flagship 
iPhone.
Then, of course, we have the bad news. It appears as though "Apple is doomed" 
may have at least temporarily transitioned to "Apple is sloppy," and we're 
getting some truly special hot takes based on this fun new theme.

I've seen a bunch of sloppy takes on Apple's supposed sloppiness over the past 
few days. It wasn't until I came across "Is Apple getting sloppy?" on the BBC 
website that I felt compelled to share some thoughts on this emerging 
misconception.
So, what's the premise of this BBC article? Apple is getting sloppy, you see, 
because the latest versions of its macOS and iOS software have bugs.
Provided as evidence in the article are a grand total of three - yes, three
- bugs. The first is the High Sierra root access bug Apple issued a fix for on 
Wednesday, the second is an earlier High Sierra the revealed forgotten 
passwords instead of providing a hint (also fixed), and the third is the 
infamous iOS bug that auto-corrected "I" to an "A" followed by a question mark 
in a box (yup, also fixed).
The article is a trainwreck from the get go; the caption under the image at the 
top of the page reads "Users are not used to finding major flaws in Apple's 
products." Umm, what? The iPhone line is in its tenth year and I cannot recall 
a single launch before 2017 that wasn't accompanied by at least a few major 
flaws. "Antennagate" is obviously the most famous among them, but there are 
dozens.
And what about software? "Users are not used to finding major flaws" in Apple's 
software? Really? Has there ever been a version of any major operating system, 
let alone iOS and macOS, that has been free of major flaws? That was a 
rhetorical question. The answer is no.
Even if we pretend that all software isn't inherently buggy, in order to accept 
the premise that Apple is sloppy we also must pretend that Apple's software is 
more prone to severe bugs than comparable software. Remember that period of 
time when it seemed like a new apocalyptic zero-day Windows flaw would pop up 
every few months? Well erase that from your memory, please. In fact, let's just 
make believe the many, many, many thousands of Windows bugs that have popped up 
over the past three decades never happened.
There are plenty of instances where Betteridge's law of headlines does not 
apply, but no sane human would argue this is one of them. So to answer your 
question, BBC, no, Apple is not getting sloppy. Software has bugs. Products 
have flaws. To think these statements are anything other than absolute truths 
is ridiculous. The best that we as consumers can hope for is that companies 
work as diligently as possible to fix these flaws. Thankfully, Apple rarely 
disappoints in this regard.

Please Take Some Time to Thank The App Developers

2017-11-30 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,  

I am posting this to encourage everyone to please take the time to send some
love to the app developers of your favorite and/or most frequently used
apps.

I really do think that it is important that we, as a community, continually
remind developers, even those that include VoiceOver accessibility in their
releases,  that we're here and how important their apps are to us, as
visually challenged individuals.  

I am sometimes asked by iOS/Mac OS users, how it is that I frequently
acquire direct feedback channels to app developers and software quality
maintenance engineers.  I am convinced that the primary reason for my
success, in this regard, is because I take the time to, compliment, as well
as criticize app functionality, especially where VoiceOver is concerned.  

In fact, generally speaking, I take more care to praise successes than to
ridicule failures both online and off-line, alike.

So, if there is an app or two, particularly close to your heart, make a
joyful noise and let it be proverbially heard in the App Store, on social
media, etc.

Mark

Hard to tell without any example. Are the sites popular enught that there
is a good chance one of the members of this list receives the messages too?
Or perhaps you could forward one. Generally, I find the most annoying
e-mail messages are those that contain tables for layout. These make pertty
designs for our sighted friends, but are near impossible if the table is
layed out with a blank first row.

Hi!
Some mail seem to hang voiceover for some reason.
But i can not figure out why.
I think it may have to do with the formating or something similar.
But where can i set mail to show all mails as plain text?
I cannot find that in the settings.
Thanks.

Re: Making table of contents, and splitting to sections?

Have you considered something like iBooks Author to make an ePub? I know it’s 
not an answer to your exact question but I suspect a good chunk of the 
functionality you want is pretty baked in.

Oh look, Apple is 'getting sloppy' now - BGR

2017-11-30 Thread M. Taylor
Oh look, Apple is 'getting sloppy' now
By Zach Epstein.
Well, Apple fans, I have some good news and some bad news for you this
morning. The good news is that it looks like Apple's new iPhone X is such a
smash hit that Apple bears are giving the whole "Apple is doomed" spiel a
rest for a while. A report from earlier this week suggested that Apple sold
6 million iPhone X units. during the Black Friday weekend alone. The
remarkable feat is made even more mind-boggling when one considers that
Black Friday is all about deals, and there are no deals at all on Apple's
$1,000+ flagship iPhone.
Then, of course, we have the bad news. It appears as though "Apple is
doomed" may have at least temporarily transitioned to "Apple is sloppy," and
we're getting some truly special hot takes based on this fun new theme.

I've seen a bunch of sloppy takes on Apple's supposed sloppiness over the
past few days. It wasn't until I came across "Is Apple getting sloppy?" on
the BBC website that I felt compelled to share some thoughts on this
emerging misconception.
So, what's the premise of this BBC article? Apple is getting sloppy, you
see, because the latest versions of its macOS and iOS software have bugs.
Provided as evidence in the article are a grand total of three - yes, three
- bugs. The first is the High Sierra root access bug Apple issued a fix for
on Wednesday, the second is an earlier High Sierra the revealed forgotten
passwords instead of providing a hint (also fixed), and the third is the
infamous iOS bug that auto-corrected "I" to an "A" followed by a question
mark in a box (yup, also fixed).
The article is a trainwreck from the get go; the caption under the image at
the top of the page reads "Users are not used to finding major flaws in
Apple's products." Umm, what? The iPhone line is in its tenth year and I
cannot recall a single launch before 2017 that wasn't accompanied by at
least a few major flaws. "Antennagate" is obviously the most famous among
them, but there are dozens.
And what about software? "Users are not used to finding major flaws" in
Apple's software? Really? Has there ever been a version of any major
operating system, let alone iOS and macOS, that has been free of major
flaws? That was a rhetorical question. The answer is no.
Even if we pretend that all software isn't inherently buggy, in order to
accept the premise that Apple is sloppy we also must pretend that Apple's
software is more prone to severe bugs than comparable software. Remember
that period of time when it seemed like a new apocalyptic zero-day Windows
flaw would pop up every few months? Well erase that from your memory,
please. In fact, let's just make believe the many, many, many thousands of
Windows bugs that have popped up over the past three decades never happened.
There are plenty of instances where Betteridge's law of headlines does not
apply, but no sane human would argue this is one of them. So to answer your
question, BBC, no, Apple is not getting sloppy. Software has bugs. Products
have flaws. To think these statements are anything other than absolute
truths is ridiculous. The best that we as consumers can hope for is that
companies work as diligently as possible to fix these flaws. Thankfully,
Apple rarely disappoints in this regard.

Hi Donna,

If you are using the Touch Bar MacBook Pro, you can hold down the function and 
VoiceOver keys and get the number row to activate the VoiceOver options that 
are available using the standard function row on a MacBook that doesn’t have 
the Touch Bar. So, it isn’t the actual function keys but the function keys as 
they are used with VoiceOver.

Re: An accessible nutrition tracking app please! SOS

2017-11-30 Thread Nickus de Vos
Hi
Last I used My Fitness Pal a couple of months ago, it was almost totally 
accessible with voiceover. Great thing about My Fitness Pal is that you can 
also use it on your computer threw a browser, so you can build your meals, etc. 
on the computer, then just quickly and easily add them on the app as you go bye 
your day.
It has probably the most extensive food database of all apps of these type 
which is out there, it also gives you very good data.

Making number keys behave as function keys on Mac with toucher?

2017-11-30 Thread Donna Goodin
Hi all,

Sorry to ask this again.  I know it has been answered, and I could have sworn 
that I'd saved the message, but now I can neither find the saved message nor 
get an answer on Google.

Isn't there a way to make the keys on the number row behave as function keys?  
I tried holding down FN, but that didn't seem to do it.
TIA,
Donna

An accessible nutrition tracking app please! SOS

2017-11-30 Thread Daniela Rubio
Hello friends!

Here I come with a question about an accessible and practical nutrition 
tracking app.

Recently, dew to medical therapy, I started a diet in which I need to track my 
nutrition intake (net carbs, proteins and fats). I have tried with Carb 
Manager; and some months ago, it was working nicely, it even allowed me to 
build my recipes and include them in my data base. But in their last update, 
the app, even if I can use it some how, became very difficult to handle, slow 
and it has drown back in accessibility.

I would love to hear your thoughts about these kinds of apps, if some one knows 
about one which is straight forward and in which I can search foods from a data 
base, see net carbs, proteins and fats and track my real daily intake?

Thank you very much for your thoughts on this and any recommendations you can 
make. I need to say that if I need to pay for the service, I don’t care if it 
will meet my needs.

Thanks!

Best
Daniela

Re: a question about apple care, for an unlocked iphone.

2017-11-30 Thread Kliphton Miller
Mark, I called apple about this last friday, and they told me apple care had to 
be purchased within 30 days of any device.  When were you told 60 days?
