Re: Evaluation: iPhone 6 and iOS 8: A Look at Accessibility with the Help of iOS Without the Eye, by Jonathan Mosen - AccessWorld® - October 2014
I'm an iPhone 5 user. I use Siri and Voice Over for most of what I do with a phone--send text messages, make calls. I upgraded to 8 because of an article much like the one in this message which I have just read most if not all of. I'm now using 8.0.2. I have had enough problems with VO and Siri that I re-installed 8.0.2. Some slight improvement after that but not much. The problem I have in particular is the inability to place a call or send a text message reliably. To me, that, and not the bells and whistles, is why I got the phone. Whether my experience is typical I cannot say. Nor can I say whether it's because of my 16-G iPhone 5. But, unless you really need the bells and whistles, I'd be somewhat cautious about the upgrade. Hype is nice, but I've already seen the Jetsons world and I can't use a device because of hype. - Original Message - From: Dane Trethowan grtd...@internode.on.net To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Saturday, October 11, 2014 1:13 AM Subject: Evaluation: iPhone 6 and iOS 8: A Look at Accessibility with the Help of iOS Without the Eye, by Jonathan Mosen - AccessWorld® - October 2014 If You're thinking about upgrading to IOS 8, already done the upgrade or just want to find out what all the fuss is about when it comes to the new iPhones as far as audio and accessibility etc goes then I strongly recommend you read this article. http://www.afb.org/afbpress/pub.asp?DocID=aw151003 ** Dane Trethowan grtd...@internode.on.net Skype: grtdane12 Phone US (213) 438-9741 Phone U.K. 01245 79 0598 Phone Australia (03) 9005 8589 Mobile: +61400494862 faceTime +61400494862 Fax +61397437954 Twitter: @grtdane

Hi Gary and all, I upgraded to the 7.1, and I've had a lot of problems with Siri. It's very frustrating. I would like to eventually get the KNFB reader app, but I'm wondering how everything will work together. That's been my experience.

Playing Your! Files On An IOS Device
Hi! I’ve decided to post an eMail on this subject for a variety of reasons, the main being that there seems to be a myth doing the rounds, the myth says that its impossible! to play third party content such as different audio file formats etc on an iPhone or other IOS devices. This is - to a major extent - true if you’re using say the iPhone’s “Music Player” App. This - to me at least - is not a big issue as every operating system with its built-in features does have its limitations, you cannot - as far as I know - play FLAC files in Windows Media Player for example unless you use a third party plug-in so essentially we’re referring to the same type of problem but with different operating systems. The other annoyance with IOS is that - unless you have an adapter available from Apple - you cannot copy your music files from say your computer over a USB connection to a particular folder on your iPhone of your choosing but again, there are ways around that snag. Okay so its best not to focus on what can’t be done and focus on what can be done so let’s do that with IOS. The first App you’ll need is a Player and there are several good one’s out there but for the sake of simplicity let’s focus on two, oOplayer and File Browser, both do exactly what their names suggest. With both you can set up remote locations such as a Dropbox account, computer on a local or remote network, UPNP/DLNA device and so on, when configured you can then select what files you wish to hear or view. Now supposing you want to take your iPhone away from any network and want your favourite music to accompany you? No problem as both the aforementioned Apps will allow you to download your Music from a specific point - computer, Dropbox account etc - right to a folder on your iPhone where you can browse, play and manipulate your files to your hearts content. So this brings us to another possibly challenging topic, iPhones have only so much storage space so what if you have thousands upon thousands of files you wish to access at any one time or supposing your music collection is in a Lossless format that takes up a good deal of space? If this is the case then its time to look at a pocket sized hard drive with a built-in Wi-Fi network, I mentioned my Skyshare drive towards the end of last week and this drive has its own built-in Wi-Fi network which the iPhone can connect to. Once connected the Apps I mentioned earlier - oOplayer and File Browser - have direct access to the drive thus the content you’ve placed too the drive. The Skyshare drive on the surface looks like any other portable hard drive, it has a USB port on the back for connection to a computer with a USB 3.0 port for the copying and manipulation of content, you can also use the Wi-Fi abilities of the drive for copying/manipulating files though this process is considerably slower when compared to USB 3.0 or even 2.
question on streaming audio with SoundForge
Hi All, Once I could ghave an audio file or program playing via the internet and record it in progress with soundforge via streaming. Now I can not and belive something got accidently changed on my end. I would genuinely be greatful to someone helping to make this feature return. Here is how I have recorded a streaming file in the past. I am using Windows Seven professional. System Access in my primary screenreading software. However, I do have access to JAWS, Window-eyes and NVDA. 1.Open Soundforge. 2. Press control plus the letter r to start the recording process. 3. Press alt plus r to start the actual recording. 4. Access the internet and locate the sound byte I wish to record. Then start that sound byte playing 5. When the audio is finished, go back to soundforge and press escape twice to stop the recording. 6. Edit out the unwanted material at the beginning of this recording and save the final product. That is how it was done up to about a week ago. Now when trying to record from streaming audio folloing the above steps, nothing records. Thanks again for any help. God, who does not sleep and who awakens us from sleep that we may ask, gives much more graciously.

Re: Playing Your! Files On An IOS Device
You mention here an adapter from apple that allows you to move files, I assume media specifically, over to directories on the phone from the computer. Do these adapters require software to go along side them to allow access to the phone's filesystem, software like sharepod, etc, and does this allow you to pull music from the device, even without having to have the files already stored within ITunes on the computer? I understand that installing some sort of file manager on the phone would give partial access to those areas allowed to it, if it were connected to dropbox or a wireless device as you mentioned here, but how well does that work for all types of media other than music, like audio books. Also, does installing a file manager on the phone give complete access to all media on a phone, without you having to jealbreak? I'm mainly curious as one major downfall I have with storing my music and books on my phone is the ability to retrieve them from the phone if I no longer have them in my ITunes library on my computer. There's plenty of software for doing this, but as far as I've been able to figure out, not much of it is accessible. If I could purchase an device to make a connection from the phone to the computer and have the ability to copy my media straight over to the phone, I'd be a happy camper for sure. Thanks. Blessings.

Once connected the Apps I mentioned earlier - oOplayer and File Browser - have direct access to the drive thus the content you’ve placed too the drive. The Skyshare drive on the surface looks like any other portable hard drive, it has a USB port on the back for connection to a computer with a USB 3.0 port for the copying and manipulation of content, you can also use the Wi-Fi abilities of the drive for copying/manipulating files though this process is considerably slower when compared to USB 3.0 or even 2. ** Dane Trethowan grtd...@internode.on.net Skype: grtdane12 Phone US (213) 438-9741 Phone U.K. 01245 79 0598 Phone Australia (03) 9005 8589 Mobile: +61400494862 faceTime +61400494862 Fax +61397437954 Twitter: @grtdane
Re: Playing Your! Files On An IOS Device
Ah, yeah, I was just reading up on the Camera kit for the IPad, after I sent my last message. Unfortunately, the page I found was from 2010, so not sure how accurate the info would be now. May still be worth checking it out if the kit isn't super expensive, if it still works on the 6 plus and IOS8. It's worth noting here though, that it's apparently necessary to jailbreak, in order to have access to the filesystem of the IPads, but the ability to use USB devices, keyboards, microphones, etc sounds pretty neat if it still works. This brings me to ask another question or two, but I'll begin it in a new subject to keep things organized. Thanks and take care. Blessings.

With both you can set up remote locations such as a Dropbox account, computer on a local or remote network, UPNP/DLNA device and so on, when configured you can then select what files you wish to hear or view.

No problem as both the aforementioned Apps will allow you to download your Music from a specific point - computer, Dropbox account etc - right to a folder on your iPhone where you can browse, play and manipulate your files to your hearts content.

Sharepod, copytrans, is any of it accessible?
Well, Guess the subject pretty much says it, but does anyone have any experiences with any other software that lets us move media back and forth from our IOS devices? I've kind of messed about with sharepod and Copytrans, but didn't have much luck with either. I seem to recall that there was a plugin for NVDA that would somewhat improve access to Copytrans, but I've never been able to locate it. Ran into a small situation yesterday after I restored my computer to find that even though I had kept my ITunes library in tact, I'd ended up with all my music and books stuck on my phone. Apparently, sense I'd not told ITunes to keep my library organized or copy the music to the media folder, everything in my library showed as an invalid location. while I could eventually rebuild my library with my music and books and re sync the phone, it would certainly be easier and much quicker if I could just replace what was missing. this is where most folks recommend external software to copy their media off their devices, so figured it'd be worth asking, hopefully turn up something nice and accessible. Any information would of course be greatly appreciated, and hope everyone is well. lessings.

RE: question on streaming audio with SoundForge
Wait, I think you missed a step. Did you use your mike? Or What you hear? -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of dan Thompson Sent: Sunday, October 12, 2014 8:53 PM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: question on streaming audio with SoundForge Hi All, Once I could ghave an audio file or program playing via the internet and record it in progress with soundforge via streaming. Now I can not and belive something got accidently changed on my end. I would genuinely be greatful to someone helping to make this feature return. Here is how I have recorded a streaming file in the past. I am using Windows Seven professional. System Access in my primary screenreading software. However, I do have access to JAWS, Window-eyes and NVDA. 1.Open Soundforge. 2. Press control plus the letter r to start the recording process. 3. Press alt plus r to start the actual recording. 4. Access the internet and locate the sound byte I wish to record. Then start that sound byte playing 5. When the audio is finished, go back to soundforge and press escape twice to stop the recording. 6. Edit out the unwanted material at the beginning of this recording and save the final product. That is how it was done up to about a week ago. Now when trying to record from streaming audio folloing the above steps, nothing records. Thanks again for any help. God, who does not sleep and who awakens us from sleep that we may ask, gives much more graciously.

Re: Playing Your! Files On An IOS Device
Haha, excellent, I love new toys. If you happen to figure out anything neat with the kit, if you get one, please do let me know, as my 6 plus should be here in two days or so, me hopes. If it's still possible to use things like USB keyboards and such on the phones, I'll certainly be hopping out to purchase one. Take care. Blessings.

Okay, as yet I'm unable to confirm that the camera kit works with the iPhone 6, several people say it does and I've seen nothing to say that it doesn't though I'd prefer a defiant answer before I purchase one so I'll continue looking to see what others are saying.
