Re: Voxie or List Recorder - Was using iPhone for studies
Eric, which of your podcasts deal with all ways of saving files onto your computer as listed in your email below! I would be interested in knowing which methodss to use in which circumstances. I use this recorder on occasions, but not all the time, as you do, I would like to become more proficient. Any help you can give would be much appreciated.

If the free ibill app reads money for you why bother with a $9.99 app like Looktell Money reader. On the other hand sometimes using apps specifically designed to work with Voice Over and the visually impaired population provide excellent quality for the few extra dollars. It is interesting how some features in a app make it work better for one person and make it more challenging for another. I found it confusing to use the FTP method of Voxie to transfer recordings. were in List Recorder I some times use Dropbox, sometimes use email, and sometimes iTunes file share. It depends on if I'm transferring one recording, many recordings, or backing up the entire contents of List Recorder. Voxie served me well for a few months and is a great value.

My accessibility experiences concerning jailbreaking have infact all been positive. Up until around 1.5 years ago, Cydia, the jailbroken app store was completely inaccessible.

RE: question
Stephanie, the phone seems to always add one extra page beyond ones on which I have apps. For instance, when I started moving apps I don't use to page 3, page 4 was created. When I put an app on page 4, page 5 popped up. I then either deleted or moved the apps on page 4 back to 3; page 5 then disappeared. You cannot delete the apps that your phone came with, such as Compass or Calculator; you can only delete ones you have added. I think you can have up to 11 or 12 home screens.

Re: Voxie or List Recorder - Was using iPhone for studies
Hi Carol, YOu can find the series of podcasts I did demonstrating List Recorder at the below link. http://www.sixthmode.com/lr-podcasts-eric I believe Podcast 6 covers how to email a recording as well as how to send it to drop box. However each podcast has a description that says what it covers so you should find what you need at this page. Podcast 7 is devoted entirely to export / import. This is how you can back up all or part of your List Recorder contents to your Mac and then how to bring it back if needed. List Recorder is a big app. A person could use it easily as just a nice recorder but it is much more then that. And the great thing is that it continues to be developed by a enthusiastic developer and a growing group of visually impaired volunteer supporters. I hope you and others find these podcasts helpful.

However each podcast has a description that says what it covers so you should find what you need at this page. Podcast 7 is devoted entirely to export / import. This is how you can back up all or part of your List Recorder contents to your Mac and then how to bring it back if needed. List Recorder is a big app. A person could use it easily as just a nice recorder but it is much more then that. And the great thing is that it continues to be developed by a enthusiastic developer and a growing group of visually impaired volunteer supporters. I hope you and others find these podcasts helpful.

RE: Dish receivers 922, 722 and hopper/joey and streaming with I devices
Paul, You may have missed it then but I did post my findings regarding this feature being missing with the Hopper. I emailed them regarding this and never got any kind of response. I did speak to their tech support rep and the most he could tell me was that after investigating he could verify that the feature was not there but he couldn't say whether it was by design, or simply overlooked. He did offer to see what he could do about replacing my Hopper and Joeys with models supporting this feature but I declined. The Prime Time Any Time feature in our case was too good to give up.

I also have a SlingBox adapter plugged into one of the USB ports on the Hopper. You can get the adapter for $30 from Dish. My experience with streaming has been ok for the most part. If you get the free Dish app for your iDevice, you can stream stuff on your DVR or watch live TV. Unfortunately, the part of the app that actually displays the video on your device has a bunch of unlabeled buttons so you really have to poke around to figure some of them out. The one big issue I have with this is that if you have a Hopper, the watch on TV option is no longer available. This option allows you to find something in the program guide and when you click on watch you can choose to watch it on your tv and not stream so it's sort of like an accessible remote control allowing you to have it change the channel on your DVR to watch real time. This feature is there if you own a 722k or 922. Not sure why they decided to not make it available with the Hopper. I have spoken to them and also emailed them with no real responses so not sure if it will ever be added back again for the Hoppers. The Hopper has 3 tuners but it has the Prime Time Any Time feature. This feature when enabled, uses 1 tuner and automatically records all 4 major networks between 7pm and 11pm. It's a fantastic feature. The DVR itself of course isn't accessible but you do have the ability to view the program guide through the app where you can schedule recordings along with the ability to stream previous recordings. Again, it's stream only which isn't the case with the 722 and 922, or so owners of those boxes have told me. Hope this helps somewhat.

I recall reading on here that some other dish users had issues with the Hopper receivers and streaming to their iPhones/iPads. I currently have two dvrs for four tbs and my understanding is that with the Hopper, you can have up to six tvs hooked up where as with the other 922 and 722 boxes, it's only two tv connections with only the 922 receiver having slingbox capabilities. Can anyone speak as to the accessibility with any of these receivers and streaming to an iPad or iPhone or exicuting any of the dvr recording features online and so on? I don't have an Apple TV, but will most likely be getting one later in the year. I would be upgrading from a couple of 625 receivers one of which is mine. I was thinking about buying a netgear usb adaptor to insert into the receiver that I own to catch my wireless router, but I've read conflicting reports online that this particular dvr device is not Internet capable outside of being hooked up directly to a landline which I do not have. I would appreciate any feedback or observations on any of the above. If I do decide to upgrade and sign on for two more years, I'd like to get the right receiver.

In contrast, everyone? contributing in this topic has at some point jailbroken their device, so in theory, the information offered will be much more accurate. My accessibility experiences concerning jailbreaking have infact all been positive. Up until around 1.5 years ago, Cydia, the jailbroken app store was completely inaccessible. A couple of us emailed the developer and it was made completely accessible in the next version. An app that some of us use called voice activator used to crash when vo was turned on. Once I found this out, I emailed the developer and from memory a fixed version was released the next day. Cheers, Ben.

The two biggest I deal with occasionally are folders closing a split second after I open them and I just have to re tap the screen and occasionally when I press the sleep button my phone will take a screen shot instead of locking. to fix this I just tap the home button twice then hit the sleep button and it goes right to sleep. these are the only issues I have ever had with voice over.

Re: 7 little words
Forgive me if I explain the obvious. There are 7 clues and some are quite obscure. For example a clue might be 2 of 100 and the answer is Zeroes. Each combination of letters stay as they are and you need to put them in order. So, for the above example you look for the combination that spells what you think the answer is. In this case there are 2 groups oes and zer. You tap your choice but they have to be in proper order. Then tap the guess button to see if you're right. Either right above or right below the guess button is an x, this clears the edit field if you know you've screwed up and want to start that word over. Let me know if this helps any.

I am sure if he can make it accessible for the iOS platform, he could make it accessible for the Mac. ALthough he may not realize how accessible it is on the iOS platform.

I just keep it on because I like listening to alerts for my favourite cities in the States.

Re: Weather alerts on your phone
I have checked my settings as recent as yesterday during the severe weather we were having in our area. Not one time, not once did it sound to alert me of the severe thunderstorm watch nor the warnings. That is has been my experience with the app. That isn't opinion. If yours has been different. That's great, I'm glad for you. I'm glad I got the app when it was free as well. I'm also glad I'm not putting my life on it. , that I'm still using a good old-fashioned weather radio @ least when I am at my home or in the studio...

Using the record feature on Tune In Radio Pro?
Hi. I had a question concerning the record feature on Tune In Radio Pro. Any time I have hit record, it does not start right at the spot that I have chosen. Instead, it backs up about five minutes or so, and begins recording at that spot. I am wondering why it does this? I have gone into the settings to try and find something that might indicate why it does this, or to try and find a setting that would enable me to change this, but have found nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks. Chasity -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Hi, I'd like to know if you can use Digit-Eyes with an external bar code scanner. I recently bought the QuantumT MS3580 USB bar code scanner for around $160 and am currently using it with my BrailleNote Apex BT32 and a service called BC Scan, which can be found at www.bcscan.com The scanner, BrailleNote Apex and the BC Scan service work great for scanning bar codes, but you have to have a live Internet connection going to use this service. That may not be practical in a grocery store setting, for example, where I may not have access to Wi-Fi. So, I'd like to get a USB adaptor to hook this scanner up to my iPhone and try it out with Digit-Eyes or other bar code scanning apps and my iPhone 4 and maybe even try BC scan over 3G using Safari. . Just to clarify a bit, even though I mentioned the QuantumT, the actual manufacturer of the MS3580 scanner may be either Honeywell or Metrologic. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.

Re: Using the record feature on Tune In Radio Pro?
This is just a guess, but maybe it starts from the time you started listening to the stream. Or if that is not the case, then it starts from the time that the stream is buffered. So if you're not listening to live music because you pause, maybe it starts from that point. I am not sure. -- Raul A.

Re: Using GV Phone Extension - Was Jailbreaking
Hi. Either Verizon or ATT will be fine. The only reason I ask is because I know that sometimes sprint accounts are tied in a little closely with Google voice numbers and so things may not work quite the same. Some Google voice numbers are considered land lines while others are considered mobile phones. If you look up your Google voice number on white pages.com you will know if it is considered landline or mobile. If your Google voice number is considered a mobile number, then you can call it or receive calls from it with unlimited minutes using Verizon or ATT. However if it is a land line, then you will have to add it to your favorites list in Verizon or a list in ATT. With GV phone extension, I have it set to the callback feature. So when I make an outgoing call it first connects to Google voice and then calls my phone back. So I get an incoming call and as soon as I answer my phone call is put through. I have another jailbreak tweak called auto answer. I said this to automatically answer when my Google voice number calls. The end result is that when I double tap on a phone number to call, Google voice calls me back from my Google voice number, and the phone answers automatically. So it looks like a normal outgoing call. I hope all this makes sense. -- Raul A.

I have paid for and use the full version of List Recorder. I do wish that it allowed you to back up the entire list structure to dropbox directly.

This is how you can back up all or part of your List Recorder contents to your Mac and then how to bring it back if needed.

If the free ibill app reads money for you why bother with a $9.99 app like Looktell Money reader. On the other hand sometimes using apps specifically designed to work with Voice Over and the visually impaired population provide excellent quality for the few extra dollars. It is interesting how some features in a app make it work better for one person and make it more challenging for another. I found it confusing to use the FTP method of Voxie to transfer recordings. were in List Recorder I some times use Dropbox, sometimes use email, and sometimes iTunes file share. It depends on if I'm transferring one recording, many recordings, or backing up the entire contents of List Recorder. Voxie served me well for a few months and is a great value.

RE: Downcast? And, any other pod catchers?
I could be wrong, but at the bottom of the first 100, I think there is a button that says get next 100, I have only had the app a week and so I am not absolute about it but it seemed to me that I did see it when I was searching for something else.

Re: IOS Training Now Available
Scott! I have been on this website before and I think it is awesome. Will you please write me off list. I would love to do an interview on my Podcast about this. I am new to the podcasting world but every little bit helps. Thank you for sharing this! Mike Malarsie m...@howtobeblind.com On Jul 6, 2012, at 5:21 PM, Scott Rumery wrote: Hello everyone, I am posting this message to the list with our moderators approval which I sincerely thank him for. I hope that you will all join in on the excitement with me. I am very fortunate to be a part of a new business launch in the assistive technology field. The name of this new company is Fedora Outlier LLC, and it is located in Atlanta, GA At this point you may be wondering what Fedora Outlier is? A very good question and if you all would give me a few moments of your time, I will try and answer it. Fedora Outlier is the brainchild of our President VaShaun Jones who is blind himself. VaShaun has been working with Apple for a number of years on all of their accessibility features of all of their hardware. This includes the complete line of Mac computers as well as all of their IOS devices. So as you can imagine he is very much in the loop about everything with Apple accessibility. Being a blind person that uses Voice Over on a daily basis for both work and pleasure VaShaun decided to develop his own business from the ground up teaching and consulting on everything Apple. This business venture became Fedora Outlier which officially opened for business on June 1, 2012. As you can plainly see by that date we have only been in business for one month now. To say that business is slow would be an understatement, but VaShaun believes in doing it slow and making sure that all of the infrastructure is in place for success, and I wholeheartedly believe in this. You may be wondering why I am bothering to tell you all this. I am telling you this because those of us here at Fedora Outlier cannot be successful at what we are doing without you in the blindness community. We need your help to spread the word about us so that the blindness community knows that we exist. It is to this end that I am including a small advertisement that VaShaun made announcing our services and programs that we will be offering. In this ad is all of the important contact information if any of you have any questions. I would also like to ask the list if they would please go to our website and look around so that they can get a better understanding of what it is that we offer to the blindness community when it comes to Apple accessibility. If you would, could you all take a few minutes and subscribe to our monthly newsletter Delivering Access, and go to our Facebook page and click on the like button, and finally go to our Twitter page and follow us. This will be of great help to us in reaching our goal of 1000 newsletter subscribers, Facebook likes, and Twitter followers by the end of the year. You can do all of this from: http://www.fedoraoutlier.com Thank you for reading this message and if you have any questions just let me know. Scott E.

However each podcast has a description that says what it covers so you should find what you need at this page. Podcast 7 is devoted entirely to export / import. This is how you can back up all or part of your List Recorder contents to your Mac and then how to bring it back if needed. List Recorder is a big app. A person could use it easily as just a nice recorder but it is much more then that. And the great thing is that it continues to be developed by a enthusiastic developer and a growing group of visually impaired volunteer supporters. I hope you and others find these podcasts helpful.

And, if the apps you have are meeting your needs there is no reason to upgrade them. For example if Red laser baar code free reader meets your needs why bother with Digit-Eyes or the Looktell Recognizer. If the free ibill app reads money for you why bother with a $9.99 app like Looktell Money reader. On the other hand sometimes using apps specifically designed to work with Voice Over and the visually impaired population provide excellent quality for the few extra dollars. It is interesting how some features in a app make it work better for one person and make it more challenging for another. I found it confusing to use the FTP method of Voxie to transfer recordings. were in List Recorder I some times use Dropbox, sometimes use email, and sometimes iTunes file share. It depends on if I'm transferring one recording, many recordings, or backing up the entire contents of List Recorder. Voxie served me well for a few months and is a great value.

Since Voxie Pro has been meeting my recording needs I admit that I haven't looked at others very seriously. I understand the Voice Over compatibility in List Recorder, but quite honestly Voxie is very Voice Over friendly as well. It also has recording categories so you can organize them into whatever you want. Like all apps, there are a few things about Voxie I don't like, but the express recording and the recording quality and the settings and built-in web server so you can download your recordings without iTunes is a huge plus for me.

Re: ipad first gen not charging on computer?
Hi Hank, Richard, Anna, Joseph, and others are correct. The standard USB2 specification for computers means that most laptops will not supply enough power to charge an iPad. This is also true of the older Mac computers -- certainly any model made before 2007. On the newer Mac computers the USB ports are high power USB ports that will detect when an iPad or iPhone that requires more power to charge are connected, and provide enough power to charge the device, slowly. If your iPad is shut down when it is connected it will slowly charge. You can read more about this in the MacWorld article titled The iPad's charging challenge explained by Dan Frakes, March 23, 2012: http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html (On a Mac you can use Command-Shift-R to read this in Safari reader, with only the text of the article shown.) As to what you can do about this, apart from using your wall charger, which is the quickest way to charge your iPad, there was an AppleVis post that referred to a USB adapter called the RAVPower RP-UA01 that is supposed to let you charge your iPad from your computer USB port (but I don't know how fast). I'll give you links to this product at New Egg and at Amazon. The product is currently featured for $7.99 at New Egg. It is $9.99 at Amazon, which may have an easier return policy. • New Egg RAVPower RP-UA1 Smart Swift PC USB Charger for iPad/iPad 2/New iPad (currently $7.99 with free shipping in continental U.S.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0WP08B2732 • Amazon RAVPower RP-UA01 iPad USB Charging Sync Adapter - Allows you to charge your iPad iPad 2 the new iPad with any computer or USB Hub ($9.99 including free shipping) http://www.amazon.com/RAVPower-RP-UA01-iPad-Charging-Adapter/dp/B006WUC5FU You can also read the reviews at these sites.

Re: ipad first gen not charging on computer?
Hello thanks for explaining why it doesn't work that info explained alot, also would like to thank you for giving me the links to that charger, I am going to look in to those. thanks Hank On 7/6/2012 8:44 PM, Esther wrote: Hi Hank, Richard, Anna, Joseph, and others are correct. The standard USB2 specification for computers means that most laptops will not supply enough power to charge an iPad. This is also true of the older Mac computers -- certainly any model made before 2007. On the newer Mac computers the USB ports are high power USB ports that will detect when an iPad or iPhone that requires more power to charge are connected, and provide enough power to charge the device, slowly. If your iPad is shut down when it is connected it will slowly charge. You can read more about this in the MacWorld article titled The iPad's charging challenge explained by Dan Frakes, March 23, 2012: http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html (On a Mac you can use Command-Shift-R to read this in Safari reader, with only the text of the article shown.)

Re: DigitEyes or another bar code reader?
Hi, Well, that's a thought. Isn't the hot spot expensive, though?

You could leave your scanner hooked up to your apex and use the hotspot on the phone so your apex would have internet in the store. - Original Message - From: Tom Lange lang...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Thu, 5 Jul 2012 21:02:06 -0700 Subject: Re: DigitEyes or another bar code reader? Hi, I'd like to know if you can use Digit-Eyes with an external bar code scanner. I recently bought the QuantumT MS3580 USB bar code scanner for around $160 and am currently using it with my BrailleNote Apex BT32 and a service called BC Scan, which can be found at www.bcscan.com The scanner, BrailleNote Apex and the BC Scan service work great for scanning bar codes, but you have to have a live Internet connection going to use this service. That may not be practical in a grocery store setting, for example, where I may not have access to Wi-Fi. So, I'd like to get a USB adaptor to hook this scanner up to my iPhone and try it out with Digit-Eyes or other bar code scanning apps and my iPhone 4 and maybe even try BC scan over 3G using Safari. . Just to clarify a bit, even though I mentioned the QuantumT, the actual manufacturer of the MS3580 scanner may be either Honeywell or Metrologic. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.
