Re: iTunes under Mojave Issue

['Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries]

Hmmm.  That's not what is supposed to happen when you consolidate.  I know that 
computers don't always do what they're supposed to, but the consolidation is 
supposed to organize everything properly.  Oh well.  In either case, I'm not 
sure why you're having that problem.  I tested it here and all is normal.

Re: iTunes under Mojave Issue

Hi,

In some ways, it just doesn't matter, but if you really wish to try, you could 
go under the File menu in iTunes, down to Library, then right and down to 
Organize Library.  See if that cleans things up for you.

iPhone battery life getting worse – a trend likely to continue, says report

[Mary Otten]

Interesting. The XR is the one exception to this trend.

iPhone battery life getting worse – a trend likely to continue, says report
9to5Mac  /  Ben Lovejoy


Tests carried out by the Washington Post, CNET, Consumer Reports and Tom’s 
Guide suggest that iPhone battery-life is mostly getting worse with each 
successive generation.

Experts believe that’s a trend likely to continue for some time yet …

It’s not a problem specific to iPhones, says the Washington Post, but something 
seen with Android flagships too.

For the last few weeks, I’ve been performing the same battery test over and 
over again on 13 phones. With a few notable exceptions, this year’s top models 
underperformed last year’s. The new iPhone XS died 21 minutes earlier than last 
year’s iPhone X. Google’s Pixel 3 lasted nearly an hour and a half less than 
its Pixel 2.

There is one exception on the iPhone front: the iPhone XR, with its LCD screen, 
offered the best battery-life of all. But the results otherwise show a gradual 
decline.

The battery-life of the iPhone X was slightly worse than the iPhone 8. The 
iPhone XS didn’t last as long as the previous year’s iPhone X. And the iPhone 
XS Max – despite having the largest battery Apple has ever put into an iPhone – 
didn’t last quite as long as the iPhone 8 Plus.

That’s in direct contradiction to Apple’s claim that the iPhone XS ‘lasts up to 
30 minutes longer than iPhone X,’ but the problem there, says the piece, is 
that there are no agreed standards.

The Post’s Geoffrey Fowler was so surprised by his results he asked other sites 
to confirm.

I called up a squad of other tech journalists also obsessed with testing at 
CNET, Tom’s Guide and Consumer Reports. “Our overall average battery life is 
coming down,” says Mark Spoonauer, the editor in chief of Tom’s Guide, who also 
found the iPhone XS battery died sooner than the iPhone X. Many of the phones 
with the longest battery life, he adds, are a year old.

One industry expert says that’s not surprising. The iPhone XS does have a 
marginally smaller capacity battery than the iPhone X, but that’s not the 
problem.

[There’s] an open secret in the industry: the lithium-ion batteries in 
smartphones are hitting an inflection point where they simply can’t keep up.

“Batteries improve at a very slow pace, about 5 percent per year,” says Nadim 
Maluf, the CEO of a Silicon Valley firm called Qnovo that helps optimize 
batteries. “But phone power consumption is growing up faster than 5 percent” […]

And the phone power situation is likely about to get worse. New ultrafast 
wireless technology called 5G, coming to the U.S. neighborhoods soon, will make 
even greater demands on our beleaguered batteries.

Apple puts a lot of work into power optimization, but it’s not quite keeping up 
with the power demands of the performance increases.

What can you do to extend your battery-life, short of using your phone less? 
The main tips are to reduce screen brightness and to use Wi-Fi over LTE where 
possible.

In the tests, which made the phones surf the web constantly, the iPhone results 
were:

iPhone XR: 12h 25m
iPhone 8 Plus: 10h 10m
iPhone XS Max: 10h 06m
iPhone 8: 9h 51m
iPhone X: 9h 30m
iPhone XS: 9h 09m
The iPhone XR also beat out all the Android flagships tested, with Samsung’s 
Note 9 taking second place.

Until the oft-promised battery technology breakthrough delivers results, it 
looks like Apple’s obsession with performance boosts means we can expect a 
continued gradual decline in battery-life for some time yet.

Re: google chrome - entering passwords with VO

[Chris Moore]

Many thanks to Tim and Andrew.  The tab key seems to do a good job of focusing 
on the text boxes.  
I found that the alexa web page is far more accessible than the alexa app on 
the iPhone.  Entering contacts was a breeze whereas the alexa app was 
problematic.
