Re: using iCloud on new iPhone 7

2016-09-18 Thread Kliphton Miller
This is probably triggered by 2 factor authentication, not 2 step barification. 
 Do you still have your old device?  That’s probably where it sent it.  Or what 
about your iCloud security code?  One of these may work.  Otherwise you may 
have to log in to iCloud on your mac, and disable it and then set it up again 
when finished proving it on your new phone.

your choice, but since I am a court cutter, I don’t have the option to 
switching on my cable box.  If it weren’t for my daughter working for comcast, 
I would miss out on a lot.  But since she does, I get pretty much everything a 
cable subscriber gets, for half the cost.  I pay 40 bucks a month for sling, 
and nothing for HBO, show time, stars, or the network channel apps like ESPN,

Wow, it really doesn’t take much time.  Especially when you use the app for 
your every day programing, it’s just like remembering things in school, or how 
many steps it takes to get to your mail box.  2nd nature, at least for me

verizon wireless sucks!

2016-09-17 Thread Kliphton Miller
So, best buy, sams club, and even target had verizon iPhone 7
s still available today.  But they wouldn’t let me just buy it, said I had to 
be a customer.  I guess T-mobile stopped partnering with the 3 companies 
mentioned above, cause non of them offered t mobile service.  Sucks too, cause 
I had the cash to drop on there counter and they wouldn’t take it.  Guess I 
gotta roll the dice with the apple store.

Dictation and speech with Sierra?

2016-09-23 Thread Kliphton Miller
Hello, on El Capitan and before, in system preferences there was a dictation 
and speech section.  This allowed us to choose a  voice that was system wide, 
or for various things like the time.  It seems that this has been removed.  Is 
there a different area where this can be done, or has it just been removed.

Moving favorites to the favorites bar, was Bugs in Apple Mail with MacOS 10.12

2016-09-22 Thread Kliphton Miller
The way favorites are added has not used vo period or vo coma for some time.  
The way to move mailboxes to your favorites.
1.  Highlight the mailbox you want to move
2. Do the mouse down command.  Vo command shift space bar.
3. Stop interacting with the mailbox list, go to favorites, and interact with 
it.
4. Place the mailbox on the 1 you want it right before, and then do the mouse 
up command.  Vo command, shift space bar.
Repeat this, until your mailboxes are the way you want them.  HTH

Well, I was going threw old and new settings, to find out what was new or 
hidden, instead of buying a book, or asking someone else to figure it out for 
me.  So, if you are editing a contact, and you do either the ring tone, or the 
text tone, there is a dialog that pops up when you go to select the sound, that 
says “emergency by pass”  If you check it, then when do not disturb is on, 
there calls or text will come threw.

Re: Signatures again.

John, I have noticed that when I do signatures on 1 system, it removes them on 
another.  Meaning, it won’t stay on both at the same time.  You have a fix for

Re: No more hardware escape key on upcoming MacBooks

I do use it once in a while, but command W closes it just fine.

I used escape all the time for all the same purposes on mac OS as on windows:

Now that I'm completely mobile and have no use for a pc style system, I think

desktop hardware into a mobile software driven system, why not just leverage 
the increasing power of mobile?

Re: iPhone 7+ blows away the new Google Pixel XL in a real world application test and fails at memory management test

2016-10-27 Thread Kliphton Miller
I love that feature to Scott.  I have it do it for about 5 sites.
Redmondpie.com
IDownLoadBlog.com
Macrumors.com
9to5Mac.com
I just wish it was available on the phone.  I think iDownLoadBlog has a app, 
but it's a bit clunky at best.

Re: No more hardware escape key on upcoming MacBooks

2016-10-27 Thread Kliphton Miller
You can use the VO keys to get out of pop ups.  And most people don't like 
change, so they want to whine and cry about it until it happens.  Especially 
about there purchases at the app store.  But the bottom line is, you can't 
change it, and you will buy it any way.  So hog wash across the board!

As for the missing headphones on my 7+ can't say I've noticed, just gotta make

Must get a couple of extras to make sure I'm caught  short.

If I really need an escape key then I'll plug in my usb keyboard or connect to 
the bt keyboard.

Don’t worry Simon, we all think the worst and then Apple shows us the best.  
How many people were worried and dare I say even tried to create a panic storm 
over the lack of headphone jack which is a total non issue now, the virtual 
home button. Let’s go back, how many blindness lists had claims of the watch 
not having voice over and so on and so forth.

I don’t see that MacBook air design ever hitting the market only because 
there’s not enough room in that form factor as well as a way to dissipate the 
heat.  You think the air can run warm, try a quad core MacBook 15 inch with all 
that extra metal for a heatsink.  Besides, they want to sell you a MacBook pro 
if you need that kind of horsepower for an extra 2000.:)

Frankly, I just want something I can implant on my brain that gives me google 
available 24/7 directly wired to my brain so I have all the resources of the 
planet available at a thought rather than having to type or speak.  For that 
matter, how nice would it be to just download language packs or skills.  (Want 
to learn Calculous, pay your $100 and boom, you’re doing derivatives.)

Things I like are definitely the touch ID, I’ll have to try the touch bar to

like that for premium graphics now on the pro I have to pay extra.  If I pick a 
15 inch model the extra powerful graphics should be included, not $100 extra.  
Having 2 TB of storage is nice but not worth $800 more considering how much 
less expensive high end flash storage is on the 3rd party market.  And why why 
why, only 16 GB?  Give me a 32 option, I will pay more for that more willingly 
than for extra graphics power.  For the price of the storage I’ll just build my 
own flash based NAS and store my files on the network.  I don’t feel I need to 
run right out and replace my MacBook mid 2015 that’s 2.8 turbo boost to 4.0 ghz 
quad core powered anyway.  Why not give me an 8 core option?

Apple, you need to start doing better, push the boundaries more and innovate 
more.  This incremental stuff is the game of lesser players.

Direct TV Now is swinging for the fences!  Not only are they offering a free 
appleTV4 if you commit to 3 months of service, but for a limited time, you can 
get over 100 channels for 35 bucks, and add on HBO and cenamax for only 5 bucks 
each.   That is huge!  Considering HBO is 15 bucks by itself on appleTV and 
other cable providers.  Read more here

My rule of thumb is, if I don’t know the sender, then I don’t open it.  A lot

 Hey all,
 
 Ok the old iCloud website was bad enough but this is ridiculous what they 
 have done with it. Would love to hear if anyone can access mail on the 
 iCloud site so they can create a mail rule. I used to be able to do this 
 and the steps were a little weird but now there is no way to get to mail. 
 I go to iCloud get signed in, go to settings then VO space on settings to 
 switch app. I can get to mail and I VO space on it and it takes me back to 
 the main screen of Find your devices. Please do let me know if anyone 
 knows how to get to mail so I can setup a new mail rule. Thanks,

Re: No more hardware escape key on upcoming MacBooks

So bottom line Scott, your saying pass on the 2016 model, and wait it out for 
2018?  I have my 2014 MacMini, and really have no need for a portable computer,

Yes, go back to internet settings, and highlight the account, vo right, and 
there should be a check box for enabling mail.  It might ask you for the 
password, but since it is in your keychain of internet accounts, it may not.  
Good luck.

Re: 2016 Macbook Pro

2016-11-03 Thread Kliphton Miller
I will get the 256 model, I have a MacMini with 512 SSD right now, and don’t 
even fill up half of it.  The reason being, I have a net work attach storage 
server with 24TB and a time capsule with 3TB, so I see no need to save anything 
internally.  I am looking forward to mastering the touch bar, although I am 
sure that will take a little longer than it usually does, since the touch bar 
will be app specific.

Re: No more hardware escape key on upcoming MacBooks

2016-10-26 Thread Kliphton Miller
Honestly, who uses an escape key anyway.  I was just sitting here thinking, and 
I couldn't think of 1 thing I actually use the escape key for.  Windows yes, 
but not on OSX.  JMO

Subject: No more hardware escape key on upcoming MacBooks

I just saw an article talking about how you can re-map and existing key, such 
as control, caps lock, command or option, to take the place of the escape key 
which is going away on the new MacBooks to be revealed on Thursday. There will 
still be that functionality on the new magic track bar or whatever they're 
calling it. But if you are a person who wants to have a hardware escape key, 
you will have to remap an existing key to get it. For those of you who use caps 
lock for voiceover, good luck. I have no idea how that Mike coexist with this 
new functionality. Or you're stuck with the new magic track bar and it's soft 
functionality. Could be interesting.

Re: Is development for OS Over?

2016-12-15 Thread Kliphton Miller
There will be a new line of iMacs coming out sometime next year.  They delayed 
them, cause they need to find a way to put the touch bar on the keyboard that 
ships with it.  Personally, nothing exciting has changed since mavericks, but 
they foot print is getting smaller, just glad updates are free, based on the 
lack of changes we have seen.  From what the reviews and reports say about the 
2016 MacBook Pro, they probably should have waited on those too.

Re: direct TV now, live chat, and 72 hour rewind option

2016-12-08 Thread Kliphton Miller
it all depends on your region.  I live in the tampa FL area, and I get fox, and 
that is it.  Although there are some NBC shows that are on demand like chicago 
fire, chicago PD, and some ABC shows too.  CBS is rumored to being close to 
signing on, but who knows when that will happen

to delete apps with the remote, find the app you want to delete, hold down the

Helpful tip for direct TV now users

2017-01-14 Thread Kliphton Miller
Well, was wondering why the movies, shows, network, and other features that are 
on the phone weren’t showing on the appleTV4.  So, while watching a show, turn 
voiceover off, swipe up once, turn voiceover back on, and you will have the 
list of on demand content for movies, shows, networks.  Once you get to the 
category you want to view, just swipe down, not click the track pad, again, in 
the network section it will do like it did on sling TV, and say 2 of 15, 3 of 
15, and so on.  It’s a pretty short list so I am sure you can remember what 
your favorites will be.  As for the shows and movies, those are all read just 
fine.  HTH

Re: Outlook 2016 or Apple mail

2017-04-09 Thread Kliphton Miller
I have never used word on the Mac,  I really have no need since text edit does 
what I want it too.  As it comes to outlook and apple mail?  I have to give the 
thumbs up to apple mail, it organizes by thread, gives you a unified in box, 
and I love the jump to favorites feature on the Mac, wish there was a way to do 
this on phone!lol. I used the office suite on windows from 2005, until  2013.  
I got my first Mac in 2011, but ran windows in fusion for 2 years.  Once I 
realized that text edit, and sometimes pages could do what I needed it to do, I 
dumped windows.  I love outlook for windows, but hate it on the Mac.  If I were 
to pick, for Mac anyway, apple mail would be it, no question!

Re: IPad Pro in place of laptop?

2017-04-11 Thread Kliphton Miller
If I didn’t use my Mac for downloading files I would go this root.  The iPad 
Pro has a lot of built in power, and for what you want to use it for you should 
be just fine.  The poster said something about apps crashing when closing?  I 
don’t use the home button to close apps, I use the escape key, and on my 
keyboard there is a dedicated home button inbeded into the function row.  So 
I’d say go for it, unless you have to download large files, or import other 
things.  Otherwise, you can get access to most things threw cloud services like 
iCloud, pCloud, as much as I hate it dropbox, google drive, one drive, and hey 
I even connect my WD 32TB server with my cloud account and can access files 
there.  So it is all up to you.  HTH

Re: Very useful utility.

Also, I don’t see how the caps lock key as a modifier has anything to do with 
this subject.  The caps lock key can’t launch pages or numbers for me with a 
single keystroke.  It can’t open safari for me, and it sure can’t tell me the 
time.  I am one that is against the caps lock key as a modifier for 2 reasons, 
1.  Quick nav pretty much takes care of having to use it or the vo keys.  2. It 
reminds me to much of the screen reader most of us left behind, why would I 
want to be reminded of that layout?  JMO

With the weekly apple conference that I host, we all use the internet audio 
from the app, and the sound is great.  It’s usually about 7 to 10 of us.

So, anybody tried both, what is the advantages and disadvantages?  Except with 
fusion I know you can run both systems at once, so besides that?  Personally, I 
don’t even use windows enough to care, but told this friend I would ask the

 Hi!
 For you who are testing the latest Ios 11 Public Beta i have a question 
 for you.
 If you’re using airplay, does VoiceOver follow the airplay audio so that 
 it comes through the airplay system instead of the Iphone speaker?
 I have this problem and can’t even use the audio routing feature so that 
 voiceover will stay on the iphone.
 I have reported this to apple.
 I have another problem where in controlcenter i cant select any airport 
 device which was possible in ios 10.

Re: SOme mail makes Voiceover Crash.

2017-07-11 Thread Kliphton Miller
You should report all bugs to apple.  Even if you think it is small.  This way 
we get all things early and they can fix them.
Are you testing an apple beta?  want to discuss bugs with other testers?  Then 
come join a friendly, helpful, laid back community where we can squash these 
bugs together, and report them to apple. Subscribe here
public-beta-users+subscr...@groups.io
Because of the non disclosure agreement, I have to say if your not a beta 
tester, please don’t join the group.

Re: Refreshable Braille devices?

2017-07-25 Thread Kliphton Miller
I doubt that the expensive ones will go away.  Yes the orbit gives a cheaper 
option, but it has been rumored to have a lot of bugs, it only connects to 1 
device at a time, and as long as state agencies are paying for there clients to 
have them, they will continue to be around.  JMO
