Re: Calibrating The Home Button
Sometimes when you press the home button on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch there can be a delay or even take a couple of tries before it responds. In this tutorial you will see how to fix this. Step 1 Open a stock application like the Calendar, Weather, or Youtube Step 2 With one of these apps opened, hold down the power button until the 'slide to power off' control appears. Step 3 As soon as you see it, press the home button and keep it pressed until the red slider disappears and the app is forced quit to the home menu. Step 4 That's it! Now you should have a much more responsive home button. http://snapguide.com/guides/calibrate-your-home-button/ - Original Message - From: CD cd5...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2012 12:42 AM Subject: Calibrating The Home Button Could someone resend the steps to recalibrate the home button?

Re: Deleting messages from the server
Hi, the default for a gmail account is to archive messages instead of deleting them. Google has the belief that since you get so much free email space, why would you want to delete a message. This way if you want to get to some information which you deleted, it will be archived instead. However since not everyone subscribes to Google's beliefs, you can choose to not archive messages and then the delete method is available. HTH -- Raul A.

Re: How to introduce my IPhone to ITunes and not disturb how I have everything already set up on the phone?
I'm in a similar situation where I used to sync my phone with iTunes for updating apps and music via playlists. Then I reformatted my computer and so set up iTunes all over again. Rather than restoring from my old iTunes library I started a new one because a lot of the music was screwed up because of poor tagging. So I've fixed that now and am looking for a way to sync my phone with iTunes again for app and music management like before. Yet if I do this, I get the warning that everything in my phone will be replaced by the new sync settings of the iTunes library. So, what I wonder is, if I choose the apps i want from iTunes, when it does the sync, if it sees that the apps match exactly on what I already have, will they be deleted and reinstalled per the sync? If so, then it would stand to reason I'd lose my data. However the other side is, maybe if it sees that the apps on my phone are the same as the ones I choose to sync from iTunes, then it should leave them alone, saving my data. The odd thing is even though I haven't yet synced my phone because of not being 100% sure what it will do to my data, I have successfully backed it up without syncing. So, iTunes will let you back up, just not sync without giving you that warning. I get the reason for the warning, but there has to be a way to tell the computer's iTunes that I want to preserve what I have now and it should match it. If I find a solution, I'll post here. However if anyone already has a solution, definitely share. The various searches I've done on the net don't seem to really answer this question.

Re: determining position on screen
Hi, if you move your finger around you can tell based on where your finger is at the time you find the app. This is assuming you use your finger to find the app rather than flicking to find it. If you flick to find it, determining its position is not as straight forward. Basically the home screen below the status bar and above the dock has 16 squares. They are 4 across and 4 down. So if your app is let's say on the right edge of the screen about half way down, it's probably on row 2, column 4, or row 3 column 4. I would recommend just reviewing the home screen before moving apps, so you have an idea of where things are at before you try moving them. HTH -- Raul A. Gallegos I have 6 locks on my door.

RE: Facebook advice
John, I have tried about five different apps, and still the Face Book app works as well as any or maybe a bit better, depending on your needs. I am not sure what it cannot do, as I am a pretty low-level user, only posting status updates and sometimes where I am, and liking or commenting on others' posts. I believe I can send pictures, but I am not sure if I can tag others. It has taken forever to get where I can understand how it works, sort of, but I think I am close now. It is a matter of classifying people into lists and then checking each list for updates, as it doesn't seem the News Feed is most reliable posting everything or posting in proper order. That is where I may just not be understanding the point of that particular feature. I still struggle with figuring out what kind of notification from whom, but I eventually do find them.

Re: typing on the phone
It's always been my understanding that this is how the majority of people type on their smart phones with a querty keyboard or numeric keypad, i.e. using their thumbs. This is how I typed on my last two Symbian phones, which had a numeric keypad and then a querty keyboard. I'm not so sure it's how the majority of people use the touch screen interface on their smart phones. It seems like more people use a pointer finger. I don't have any statistical data though, so this is all just anecdotal. BTW, I have been giving touch typing another chance, and although it's early, I'm thinking I may end up preferring it over split tapping. I know I've been a big advocate of split tapping, but all of the people on this list talking about how great touch typing is caused me to give it another chance, and I may be glad I did.

RE: typing on the phone
I still prefer split as opposed to touch, I made a ton of errors with touch, maybe because I have typed for many years and lifting fingers is such a part of that, sliding around to find what I am looking for, well, it just seems easier to move my hand, left index finger usually. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Christopher Chaltain Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2012 10:10 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: typing on the phone It's always been my understanding that this is how the majority of people type on their smart phones with a querty keyboard or numeric keypad, i.e. using their thumbs. This is how I typed on my last two Symbian phones, which had a numeric keypad and then a querty keyboard. I'm not so sure it's how the majority of people use the touch screen interface on their smart phones. It seems like more people use a pointer finger. I don't have any statistical data though, so this is all just anecdotal. BTW, I have been giving touch typing another chance, and although it's early, I'm thinking I may end up preferring it over split tapping. I know I've been a big advocate of split tapping, but all of the people on this list talking about how great touch typing is caused me to give it another chance, and I may be glad I did.

Trying to Decide between Apple and Logitech Bluetooth Keyboards
Greetings to the list. I am trying to decide between purchasing the Apple aluminum Bluetooth wireless keyboard or the Logitech Bluetooth wireless keyboard. I believe the current offering for the Logitech unit is their model 920-003241. At any rate, I am attracted to the Apple keyboard because of its ability to change the iPhone's volume and other parameters with the function keys. Is this possible with the Logitech keyboard? I am attracted to the Logitech keyboard because it appears the on-off switch is more difficult to activate by accident and because I know from experience that Logitech produces high-quality peripherals. Does anyone have any thoughts on these two keyboards? Thank you for all help. Craig -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

RE: Anyone have the Jawbone Big Jambox BT Speaker
BlankEric, It looks like this speaker was just released yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to compare it with the Bose Soundlink. But, judging from the reviews, I think it deserves serious consideration. It has the same accessibility features as the original jambox. Here is the article: Jawbone Big Jambox Review: Bigger, Louder Wireless Speakers PHOTO: The Big Jambox compact wireless speakers are seen here in this undated file photo. The Big Jambox compact wireless speakers are seen here in this undated file photo. (Jawbone.com) Good Morning America Like frame Recommend 31 Like frame end tweet82 tweet 82 Google More Sharing ServicesShare Share on facebook_likeEmail Comment Print Single Page Text Size -/ + By JOANNA STERN (@joannastern) May 1, 2012 It's simple physics: A bigger vibrating body creates louder and larger sound. And it's that simple principle that sums up the new Jawbone Big Jambox. The company's popular small Bluetooth Jambox speaker has powerful and impressive sound for its size, but according to Jawbone, there's been one complaint about that little speaker: it isn't always loud enough. The Big Jambox is, as you might have guessed, bigger than the original Jambox. But at $299 it's quite a bit more than most iPhone or iPod speaker docks. The new device hits stores later this month (May 15th) — is it worth your hard-earned cash? And is it really that much louder? The Big Jambox might have big in its name, but it's not really all that big, at least in comparison to other speaker docks, like the iHome iP4. Sure, it is bigger than the original Jambox, which is about the size of a box of animal crackers, but the 10 x 3.1 x 3.6-inch / 2.7-pound speaker can easily be picked up in one hand and ported to the backyard while your other hand grabs the six-pack or fold-up chair. The minimalist, clean design of the original Jambox has thankfully been left untouched. In fact, it looks as if the original was stuck on Wayne Szalinski's Honey I Blew Up the Kids contraption and enlarged. And like the original, it's available in several colors, including red, white, and black. There are a few more controls on the speaker now; the top of the speaker has Previous, Next, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons so you can control everything on the speaker if your phone is across the room. It also has a button with a J on it, which when pressed starts the voice of a friendly, yet robotic, woman, who announces the battery level. de frame list of 1 items FHA Cuts Refi Requirement Rates Hit 3.01% APR! Calculate New Mortgage Payment Now. www.MortgageRatesExperts.com list end de frame end The right edge of the speaker houses a power button, a pairing button, which makes it very easy to pair via Bluetooth with your phone, a line-in jack, a Micro USB port, and a charging port. Speaking of charging, the Big Jambox, like the original, has a built-in battery -- no wires hanging all over the place and no need to go buy those big D batteries. Jawbone promises 15 hours of continuous music playback before you have to recharge; I've been testing the speaker for the last three days and have listened to at least five hours of music and the nice robotic lady tells me, Battery is about three quarters full. Pairing the Jambox with any Bluetooth device -- phone, tablet, or laptop -- is incredibly simple. Turn on the Bluetooth pairing mode on the speaker (yes, that lovely lady will tell you it's ready to pair aloud) and your device and the two will sync up. Start playing music on your phone and you'll hear it coming out of the box. And it's then that the Big Jambox really shines. Like the little box, the sound that comes out of it is beyond impressive. Audiophiles will be impressed with the two proprietary active drivers and the two opposing passive bass radiators, and people who aren't impressed by audio jargon will just love listening to good sounding music. And they might just take note of the balanced audio, the crisp sounds, and the strong bass, especially when listening to a bassier and fresher tune, like Flo Rida's Wild Ones. As for the volume, the speaker lives up to its promise of loud sound. At full blast I worried that I was going to be kicked out of my apartment building. When I tested it at a park, I could hear the music from quite a distance -- I'd say well over 20 feet -- but I didn't get to test it at a party or outdoor BBQ. My guess, is that it would suffice for those situations, though if you have a big outdoor space you might require a wireless speaker system. The Jambox cannot sync with other Jamboxes, so this isn't going to be that sort of solution. I also did notice that the music can distort or sound overblown at those high volumes. Big Jambox: Big Wireless Sound Even more impressive are LiveAudio optimized songs. LiveAudio is a Jawbone technology that enables 3-D sound; you can turn it on by pressing the volume buttons at the same time and then

Hi, Yes, the ability to use the function keys to do things like adjust volume, play/pause media, etc is universal. It is not exclusive to just the Apple bt keyboard.

Re: typing on the phone
Most sighted people use their thumbs to type even on touch screens. As to what most blind people using touch screens use, that's anyone's guess. I have used both styles.

RE: split screen on the iPad
Aren't they called containers? Kind of like frames on a computer screen. It takes a little to get used to, but that's probably because us screen reader users are not used to having information presented to us in that way. There's a container option in the rotor as well to jump around. It took me some time to familiarize myself with certain apps I use on both my iPad and phone since the layouts are different.

Re: Google books
There is another possibility. If you purchase the current version of Google Play Books, then took it out of the ITunes library and off the device, it may be possible to put the older version back. I have this version, and I imagine others do, too. Someone could then send you the file via email attachment, and I should think this would be entirely above-board. Teresa Visualize whirled peas.

Depending on your operating system, look in your trash or recycle bin for Google books.ipa. Go into your ITunes library and delete Google Play Books (the new version). Make sure it's deleted from your device. Now restore Google Books.ipa to your ITunes library, and sync your device. You may also be able to find the file in a backup. You are replacing one app with another, so this is not a big change for your phone. If you get word of an update for Google Books, investigate it carefully before updating. Go to Applevis or somewhere on the web to be sure it's an accessible version, or try it yourself if you care to.

Re: typing on the phone
lol, No ma'am. At least not on my recommendation. Type the way that feels comfortable for you. If it ain't broke, etc, etc, etc. :) Ricardo Walker rica...@appletothecore.info Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On May 17, 2012, at 7:31 PM, Vicki Meizinger mom.meizin...@gmail.com wrote: Oh boyl, time to change my life again.

This is how I typed on my last two Symbian phones, which had a numeric keypad and then a querty keyboard. I'm not so sure it's how the majority of people use the touch screen interface on their smart phones. It seems like more people use a pointer finger. I don't have any statistical data though, so this is all just anecdotal. BTW, I have been giving touch typing another chance, and although it's early, I'm thinking I may end up preferring it over split tapping. I know I've been a big advocate of split tapping, but all of the people on this list talking about how great touch typing is caused me to give it another chance, and I may be glad I did.

I've always used my right thumb for all my typing, that is, until I got my apple bluetooth keyboard last fall. Now, if I'm going to be typing more than a couple of words, I use that instead. -Gretchen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
