Macs for College

2021-03-12 Thread Maria Reyes
Hi, 
I'm looking for a good Mac laptop that'll work for college. If it has an SD 
card reader, that'll be great. I have an Orbit reader so that I can put books 
on it and I just put it on the SD card.

Re: How do I use the new COVID-19 tracking feature in IOS 13.5?

2020-05-21 Thread 'Maria Reyes' via MacVisionaries
my understanding is that it works through bluetooth. so I'm guessing you would 
have to log if you have COVID-19 into an app and your phone will notify you if 
you have been exposed. there aren't any apps yet.

 Hi all,
 
 I just installed IOS 13.5 so I could use the COVID-19 tracking feature. 
 Problem is, when I go into settings and enable COVID tracking, it tells me 
 that it can't be enabled because I don't have a necessary app installed. 
 So, I went to the app store and downloaded the Apple COVID-19 app. I 
 installed it, and answered the questions, but I'm still getting the 
 message that COVID tracking in settings cannot be enabled. Does anyone 
 know what I need to do to utilize this feature? This is really a big miss 
 by Apple. If they expect people to use this, they needed to let us know 
 what we need to do.
 Cheers,
 Donna

Re: Keychain

2020-02-28 Thread Maria Reyes
Hi, When you go to a website where keychain has your log in credentials saved, 
you will see it ask you if you want to log into the website using the username 
or email you provided then next to that you will get a button that says log in 
with and it will say your username. double tap on that button and you will have 
to authenticate with FaceID or Touch ID.

Re: How to change an incoming e-mail from going to Junk to going to Inbox in Mail

Apparently not. I just know that I have a Gmail account and most of the 
messages go into my inbox. I only see about 5 or 6 messages in the Junk folder. 
I don't know about other accounts but I've heard you can set some kind of 
filter for your gmail account so your mail will go to your inbox.

Re: How to move through messages in Mail on iPad using BT keyboard?

Hi, I would also like to know this. I've never heard of a command for moving to 
the next message in Mail.

Hi all,

I've been spending some time with my iPad this week, and there's one keyboard 
issue that I've yet to solve.  Is there a keyboard command to move to the next 
message in mail?  so far, the only way I've found is to turn off QuickNav and 
move using the arrow keys, but that's an awful lot of keystrokes just to view 
the next message.  Is there an easier way?  I'm using a Logitech Slimb Combo 
keyboard, in case that matters.
TIA,

Re: WeChat on the iPhone from a VO perspective

2019-05-28 Thread Maria Reyes
Hi Mike,
I haven't used WeChat in a very long time, but yes, you have to hit return in 
order to send a message. I never found a setting to change this, so I guess 
it's how it works for now. Other than that, the app is really accessible.

Re: A TTS Engine instead of a Human Voice for Reading a Novel? Maybe

2019-04-16 Thread Maria Reyes
I would say I'm used to reading with TTS (Eloquence on the computer, and Voice

I've gotten used to her voice, but on a lot of novels I read in VDR I use the

Now I don't remember if it's the first or second more button but check those 
out. One of them should have apps that you can toggle on and off. One of them 
should be Dropbox. After you toggle that to on and hit the done button, scroll 
down past AirDrop to the bottom of the screen and you should see a Dropbox 
button.

 Well, I hope he's wrong about Apple's end being near, but what he 
 describes is certainly true in our house.  I used to upgrade just about 
 every year.  But I did not upgrade this past year, and I'm thinking about 
 sitting out next year, too.  If I'm going to pay $1000 for a phone, I 
 definitely want more than one year's use out of it.  While I'm happy to 
 spend a little more to support Apple because of all they've done for 
 accessibility, my bank account isn't bottomless.  You'd think someone at 
 Apple would be putting all this together.  It's one thing to charge top 
 dollar because you can get it.  But if products aren't selling, then they 
 need to revise their business model.

Re: texting with my iPhone

keep in mind if you have a passcode or Touch ID enabled you will have to 
authenticate.

That still happens in iOS. My guess is that you're getting multiple 
notifications, and they are being grouped together. Double tapping this group 
expands it, letting you see each message notification, but not taking you to 
Messages. If you have a single message, tapping it will do what you expect.

You can either expand the group, then choose a message and tap it, or you can 
open your notifications settings and disable grouping if you really don't like 
it. Again, though, if you have a single message and tap it, you should go 
straight to the Messages app.

RE: Apple Annoyances Was Re: Mac OS Start up Chimes

2018-09-01 Thread Maria Reyes
You have to keep in mind that Face ID is a first gen product like Touch ID was 
when it was first released. I love my iPhone X and Face ID works for me.

Subject: Apple Annoyances Was Re: Mac OS Start up Chimes

Well I for one am not about to give up my Apple products and go to the 
darkside. I bought my new Mac this past March and just recently purchased an 
iPhone 8 and they're both working great. As for the iPhone, I'm going to keep 
this 8 until they decide to stop supporting it. I'm also reluctant to switch to 
Face ID but not because of what's been said on here. I have no problems swiping 
up to go home or to use Face ID to unlock the phone. What's really deterring me 
is the method to use Apple Pay. I use Apple Pay almost everywhere except for 
Walmart of course who still uses old and obsolete methods for payment. It's 
nice to just point my phone at the debit machine and hold my finger on the 
Touch ID sensor to make my purchase. With face ID it sounds like you have to 
point the phone at the machine, point it at your face, then point it back at 
the machine and double press the side button It would be nice if Apple could 
eliminate some of these steps. Maybe when they stop supporting the iPhone 8 
hopefully Apple Pay will be quicker than it is now. If not, I guess I'll just 
have to persevere.

discontinued it for one computer and not on another.

Hi all,

According to the rumours, Apple will be removing touch ID from all the new 
devices.

It is important to note: Apple has been on a quest to remove all buttons, 
switches, and so forth for several years, so I expect these rumours are 
accurate.

I do not remember the spelling of the Chinese company, but their new flagship 
phone has Apple's 3D Face ID, and the touchscreen embedded fingerprint sensor 
which Apple was reportedly rumoured to be experimenting with last year.

All the other Android Face ID systems are currently using 2D picture matching 
Face ID.

Kind regards,

Donna,

I couldn't agree with you more.

I’m hoping that Apple will, in fact, maintain some form of Touch ID.  I just 
can't imagine that they would completely eliminate such a trusted form of ID 
verification.

Of course, I said the same thing about removing the headphone jack and we all 
know how that turned out (smile).

Personally, I have absolutely no desire to use Face ID.

Let's just wait and see what happens on September 12th, okay?

By the way, it is for this and other reasons why I continue to purchase and use 
Android devices; you know, just in case Apple takes this big brother thing, a 
little too far for my tastes (smile).

You know, I don't know about anyone else, but I'm feeling frustrated with 
Apple.  I was really hoping that the new iPhone models would include an option 
for a faster iPhone 8.  Face ID sucks.  It takes significantly longer to unlock 
your phone, and is much more finicky.  I'm feeling resentful that Apple is 
trying to force me into a technology that I have tried, and do not like.  I 
don't want Face ID.  I don't need a ginormous screen.  I sure as h*** don't 
need three cameras.  I'm starting to wonder if my next phone will be a cheapy 
that makes calls and texts, and I do the rest from my Mac.  I don't want some 
giant tech company to dictate how I will use technology.  If Apple wants to 
continue to promote face recognition to the exclusion of more convenient 
technologies, that's their prerogative.  But they should have kept a touch 
option available for those of us who tried face ID and know it sucks.  And as 
for the new flick up for home?  It sucks, too.  Being able to quickly press a 
home button--be it actual or virtual--was much more efficient.  My only 
power--small though it may be--is my purchasing power.  And I am really 
wondering if my next phone will be a non-Apple product.

I know this is only tangentially related to the start-up chime, but I feel it's 
all part of the same thing.  Why not leave the chime enabled, or at least make 
it an opti

Re: Apple hopes its Maps do-over gets you where you need to go, cNet

This sounds like an interesting overhaul. So would the app look different then? 
would it recognize someone’s house by its address or is it only business 
buildings?

Re: An iTunes question

2018-06-17 Thread Maria Reyes







So the genius option that was in the music settings gone? I 
remember you could turn genius on and off there.

Hi,
On a Mac, go into iTunes Prefs, in the General pane, and uncheck the checkbox

"Show Apple Music Features" checkbox.  On an iOS device, go into Settings, 
Music.
Make sure that when you turn it off, you press OK in the Preferences window on 
your Mac or back out of Settings on an iOS device before turning it back on.  
This will ensure that it takes and does a proper rebuild/reset when re-enabling 
it.

I do not have iTunes music match, so it seems like I should be able to turn

Re: Accessible mail apps for iPad

2018-05-11 Thread Maria Reyes
Hi, 
I think the iPad splits the mail into 2 separate things. So your message list 
would be on the left side for example and the message you're viewing is on the 
right. What works for me is when you are in full screen mode (you should see 
inbox back button) is to double tap the button and I'm taken back to my 
messages list. Yes I would also use Outlook for iOS. I tried an app called 
Spark and it doesn't seem to be accessible. As for the Gmail app, it does allow 
other accounts, but I don't like having to go into every single thread in order 
to mark them as read. they should put in a rotor action where you can mark the 
message as read like the mail app.

They're actually big enough to do what they say, that is true.  But can and

You know, when I was using HIMS products, I always had very good customer

RE: I Need Help with Assigning a Custom Gesture in iOS 11

How does it work?

Hello Everyone,

Try as I may, I cannot discover how to assign a custom gesture, I just
created, to any action, in the Assistive Touch area of iOS.  

My Goal is to assign a custom gesture that will allow me to skip to the next
song in a Play List.  Can this be done?  If so, please tell me how. 

I have watched over 20 YouTube videos and read countless articles but no one
seems to describe exactly how one assigns a newly created gesture to an
action.  

All replies greatly appreciated.

RE: Performing hardware test on my mac mini

Subject: Re: Performing hardware test on my mac mini

Hi,

The key that they are referring to is the actual letter "d" key.  You hold down 
the "d" key on startup and the Mac is put into Diagnostic mode.  All well and 
good, but Diagnostic mode is not accessible with VO, so, you're out of luck 
with this option.  If you are attempting to see if a fan is working, I suggest 
Google searching something like SMC Fan Kit which allows for monitoring and 
modifying internal fan speeds.  You do need to be careful with this app as it 
is only partially accessible and you do not wish to mess with too many of the 
default fan speeds unless you know what you're actually manipulating and the 
consequences of modifying it.

Later...

 don't believe the Macintosh actually keeps the password for Google accounts

Certainly I have had a lot of issues with Google and the Mac Mail count over

If you have a phone associated with your Gmail account you can recover via that

I posted this earlier, but I didn’t see any replies or I just missed them, but 
I’m trying to use iCloud Mail on my windows 10 laptop using the built in mail 
app. I have the account with an app specific password, however, when I try to 
send messages, they won’t send. I get an error email. I do have the address 
correct. Is there something I need to enable in my settings?

RE: adding podcasts in native app

2018-04-16 Thread Maria Reyes
Hi, at the bottom of the screen you will find 4 tabs from left to right: listen 
now, library, browse, and search. You want to double tap on search. Find the 
search text field, and type in the name of the podcast. You should see a header 
with the search results. Once you find the podcast you want to subscribe to, 
flick until you hear subscribe. Then double tap. Now you should see the 
podcasts under library > shows.

Hello All:

In the past, it has been an easy matter to search for a podcast then add it to 
my feed. Now however, the search field under the add button requires the full 
url instead of the podcast name. Am I missing something? How do I simply search 
for a podcast, decide I like it and add the feed to my podcasts?

Thanks in advance,

Danny, 
To enable Touch ID go to settings > touch ID and passcode then follow the 
steps. Then go to the website. Make sure you are after the prediction bar or 
the keyboard. I think the button is called autofill contact.

We do a lot of work with Amazon and Audible, so this is a pretty big annoyance. 
The option to fill in the password is there, but the password no longer appears

Re: still not able to see Word Count in Pages

2018-03-03 Thread Maria Reyes
Hi, 
Go to more, then keep flicking until you hear word count switch button off. 
Double tap to toggle it on. The button is right before the text field.

A promising work in progress: initial thoughts on HomePod

2018-02-12 Thread Maria Reyes
ePod isn't technically built as a TV speaker, but since 
it's now the best speaker I own, and all my TV watching happens through an 
Apple TV, I wanted to see how well the two devices would work together. The 
result: passably.

It's possible AirPlay 2 will improve the Apple TV's connection to HomePod when 
it launches later this year, but for now, AirPlay 1 isn't a bad option. It can 
be set up easily enough by holding the Siri Remote's Play/Pause button on the 
Home screen, or by swiping down from the top of the remote while watching a 
video to select the HomePod as your speaker.

Once HomePod is tied to the Apple TV, it will stay connected up until HomePod 
is asked to stream another audio source. This means you can ask common 
questions of HomePod regarding the weather, a movie you're watching, or other 
queries without breaking the AirPlay stream; but if you ask HomePod to play 
music or a podcast, then the next time you turn on the Apple TV you'll need to 
reconnect it.

Up Next on iPhone. While Siri works great for all things music-related, I also 
enjoy having the ability to use my iPhone to see what song is playing or manage 
playback. Thanks to the new audio playback controls introduced in iOS 11.2.5, 
this is easy to do. Switching audio sources, either from Control Center or the 
Music app, allows you detailed control of playback and a glance at what's 
currently playing on each device. If you're in Music, you and any family 
members granted Home access can even view and rearrange the Up Next queue.


The HomePod isn't yet what it will become.

Apple has a history of releasing 1.0 products that are limited in severe ways, 
but that also do a few foundational things impressively well. HomePod continues 
that tradition.

It could be argued that, since competitors like Amazon's Alexa are already so 
dominant, Apple needed to come out of the gate with a stronger 1.0. As it 
stands today, HomePod is certainly not a mass-market device like the Echo or 
Google Home. It needs improved SiriKit support, most notably for audio domains 
so that Spotify users can give it a serious look. It also needs more 
first-party Siri domains in order to provide a consistent Siri experience 
across Apple devices.

Despite what it's lacking, though, HomePod does a few things very right. In my 
mind it's clearly the best looking smart speaker on the market, the setup 
process is ridiculously easy, and yes, as a music player it sounds incredible. 
The hardware that supports Siri is also great, with HomePod's microphone array 
providing near-perfect detection of "Hey Siri," even when the music's turned up.

It's not a product for everyone yet, but I think it can get there over time. A 
few software updates, and HomePod could potentially have much wider appeal. For 
now though, despite its current limitations, the HomePod still provides an 
impressive, quality experience for Apple users like me. If you're happy with 
Apple Music, and you're already invested deeply in Apple hardware, HomePod 
offers a lot to enjoy.

I wish this prompt only happened once, but unfortunately it repeats itself. If 
I only listened to music, I likely wouldn't use max volume much; when listening 
to a podcast, however, turning the volume up happens more often because it 
means I can move around the house freely while still listening to a show. ↩︎
I have heard of other people having issues with these things that worked fine 
for me, however. ↩︎
