RE: suggestions for a good daisy app

2012-08-25 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Margaret,

Just copy all the MP3 files that make up the Daisy Book (provided they are
named so they are in order from first to last) and then use something like
the free Chapter and Verse program which you can download from
www.LodenSoftware.com to convert the MP3 files to M4B and merge them into a
single audio book file which your daughter then can copy into her Audio
Books folder in iTunes and sync to her device.


Regards,
Sieghard

I turned off video backup in iCloud. I did a backup. I was told that the video 
will be deleted from the iCloud backup. The backup size was reduced by one gb. 
The strange thing is that when I turned back on the video backup, I was told 
that the next backup size will be one gb larger again. This it something I 
couldn't understand. Any idea? 

Thanks.

Email Problem - Download Remaining XX KB Not Working

2012-08-25 Thread Peggy Carpenter
Hi, in the past week something has changed with my email on my iPod Touch.  
Now when I get a message which has a button that says Download Remaining xx KB, 
I tap on it and it doesn't download.  It changes briefly to say Downloading, 
but then goes back to say Download Remaining XX KB Button.  

I've checked in my email settings and nothing seems to have changed.  I am 
pretty sure it worked about a week ago and can't think of anything I have 
changed.  

Anyone seen this behavior or have any suggestions?  

Thanks.

Do you also sync your camera roll with your computer, and if so, do you sync

on your computer.

RE: Typing styles on virtual keyboard

2012-08-25 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Gerardo,

 

The way one types on the virtual keyboard is about as subjective as it can
be and if you get 10 answers to this there are probably 8 different
descriptions of how people type. whatever works for you is what you should
do. As opposed to proper 10-finger typing on a full-size keyboard which is a
standard technique, typing on an iPhone is where everybody has to figure out
what works best.

 

One thing you might keep in mind is that if you do a lot of typing on your
iPhone, you should maybe give Fleksy a try. The Fleksy app has been
discussed a lot on the list since it's release about 3 or 4 weeks ago and
the consensus is that for most people Fleksy works extremely well and
results in double, triple or even better typing speeds. If you are new to
the list, just go to the list archives (the link is at the end of each post)
and search for Fleksy, you can read the description by searching the app
store for Fleksy and since the last version it is possible to download the
app and practice typing as much as you want for free, if you like how it
works and find it useful an in-app purchase will give you full functionality
which means you can copy the text you typed to the clipboard with a single
button tap for pasting into another application, send text directly to
email, a text message or Twitter. The regular cost for the app is $14.99 in
the US and Canada although there was a sale price recently, not sure if it's
still on.

Sieghard

HI guys: How do you guys go about typing on the Iphone virtual keyboard?
Here's my trick hoping to get some more ideas, but especially help those of
you who are only getting started on this new adventure! I've had mine for
only about a month and a half but suffice to say the experience, once
getting the hang of a few tricks, is awesome!

Now for the typing: I type with my right hand in case this makes any
difference; Imagine on the keyboard three areas; the index finger goes from
the a to the f along with the letters above and below; the middle finger the
g h and sometimes j and the letters above and below; the ring finger the
rest of the keyboard. Yes! It requires some coordination but once getting
the hang of it, apart from feeling more confident typing, I'm little by
little picking up speed. Any more ideas?

RE: List of DAISY mobile apps

2012-08-25 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Jay,

 

I am surprised that Indaisy is not in that listing. I bought both Daisy Worm
and Indaisy when I bought my first iPod Touch 3 years ago, but haven't used
either one for a long time and I don't even have them installed any more and
even deleted them completely from iTunes. I listen exclusively to Audio
Books and just about all of them come from Audible which means I use the
Audible app of course. If I do order the occasional Daisy CD from the CNIB
in Canada or download a book from the CNIB Library I either download the MP3
version as many books are offered for download either as a single zip file
download of the daisy files or as an MP3 download. Even for the daisy
download I then delete all the other files and once only the MP3 files are
left I use Chapter and Verse to create a single M4R audio book file or, in
the case of extremely long books, I might create 2 or 3. I found the daisy
apps somewhat clunky and getting the daisy files onto my device via FPT or
iTunes files transfer to me always seemed complicated. Maybe these apps have
evolved and become better although I must say that I have not seen any posts
regarding Indaisy or Daisy Worm updates and improvements in a super long
time, are they even being updated?

Sieghard

Even when I double tap the listen button Siri doesn't respond and
consequently I have to restart the phone.
Anyone else have this problem? I even turned VoiceOver off and used Siri a
few times with the same results. So I'm thinking perhaps it's a Siri bug and
not VoiceOver.

Re: Anyone have experience pairing Big Jam Box with iOS

2012-08-25 Thread Steve
That isn't correct for the Big Jambox, that is the Jambox itself.

The Bigr Jambox has two buttons on the side.  The top one turns the unit on, 
then hold the bottom one in for a couple seconds and it will go in pairing 
mode.  Then put your iPhone in discovery mode.

I find that the Jambox is infinitely easier to pair than the Bose Soundlink. 
As a matter of fact, last week, I turned on the Jambox and accidentally 
double-tapped the forward button.  I was greeted by loud music, as it had 
activated my wife's phone which had previously used the Jambox and was 
twenty-five feet away in the home office.

On the side of the JamBox just above the speaker connector is a switch. This 
is a three position switch with the bottom position being off, the middle 
position is on and the top position is pairing mode. The switch is spring 
loaded such that it will not stay in the top position. Move it to the top 
and hold it for a few seconds. Let go of the switch and it will 
automatically return to the middle on position. At that point, however, the 
JamBox will be in pairing mode and if your iOS device is in the bluetooth 
dialog, it will see the JamBox and ask if you want to pair it.

inserting athe sim in an iphone 4g

2012-08-25 Thread Joe Paton

Hi folks,

which way is the sim oriented in the sim tray on the iphone4.  I 
guess the question is, where should the cut off corner be oriented if 
you are holding the sim and about to insert the tray back in to the phone.


I should not have let the cleaner do my desk, then it would have been 
as it was when I extracted it.


AAh well. that is the way it goes.

Advantages of Unlocking an Locked iPhone4

2012-08-25 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello List, 

I am not sure if my email was posted because I momentarily lost power. So
here I go again and if this is a duplicate, please excuse me for reposting
the topic. For those who have an unlocked iPhone, what are the advantages of
unlocking a locked phone. The main reason for this question is that I will
be traveling overseas and would like to swap out the Simm card to replace it
with a data card from the particular country. Are there other advantages
besides that, that I should consider doing this? I have already called AT 
T and I know that this is feasible with my phone. The only inconvenience is
that you need to restore the phone. Is it best to back up to the Cloud, as
well as to the computer? Which type of back up will restore all the apps
back into the folders that they are in now or will I have a huge project on
my hands after the restore? I believe the tiny pin hole in on the right side
of the phone about 1 inch from the bottom. Is that correct? What kind of
tool is needed to eject the Simm card from the phone and can that be
purchased from the Apple store? Thanks for any suggestions and
justifications for unlocking a locked phone.

RE: Advantages of Unlocking an Locked iPhone4

2012-08-25 Thread Daniel Miller
Hi,

As far as what backup to use, I'd do an iCloud backup, since doing it from
iTunes won't restore your folders, I don't think. You can use a paperclip to
eject the sim card, so no tool needs to be bought. Also, be aware, your
phone will be jailbroken once it's unlocked, unless the method ATT uses
doesn't jailbreak.

Re: Advantages of Unlocking an Locked iPhone4

2012-08-25 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Obviously the att person won't be telling her to jailbreak her phone!

Eileen, to answer your questions:

The only advantage is that you will be able to use other phone
companies with your phone; this is all unlocking does.
In my experience you won't have to backup your phone; in the past I've
connected it to iTunes and a carrier update has been downloaded 
installed - E.G. the phone was unlocked more or less automaticly. I
didn't need to backup my phone, although you should do this every now
and again anyway.

Cheers,
Ben.

Re: Typing styles on virtual keyboard

2012-08-25 Thread David Chittenden
Hi,

I use the index and middle fingers on my right hand, so only two fingers rather 
than the three fingers you use. Also, my keyboard is set for touch typing, so 
each letter is entered when I lift the finger.

Most sighted people, and some blind people, hold the phone cradled in the 
interlaced fingers of both hands and use the left thumb for the left half of 
the keyboard and the right thumb for the right half of the keyboard. According 
to a sighted friend, the thumbs method is the quickest. He happens to be one of 
the few sighted people I know who uses two fingers of one hand, which he says 
is slower, but he also finds it to be less of a strain on his hands.

Re: Typing styles on virtual keyboard

2012-08-25 Thread Michelle McQuigge

Hello,
I'm one of those blind people who strongly favours the thumb-typing 
method shown to me by a sighted friend. I used to be an 
index-finger-typist, but quickly realized I was much more productive 
with the more mainstream approach. With that said, I found that it only 
works on the iPhone when touch-typing is enabled. Standard typing with 
thumbs, i.e. double-tapping every letter after finding it, was both 
tortuously slow as to be nearly impossible. If you're going to try it 
that way, I highly suggest you make the switch. Most of us on this list 
have already taken that leap, I think, but thought I'd put it out there 
in case you're still experinmenting with different settings.


Best of luck figuring out what works best for you. As Sieghard said 
earlier, this truly is a subjective matter with no right or wrong answer.


Take care,
Michelle

RE: Advantages of Unlocking an Locked iPhone4

2012-08-25 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Eileen,

OK, so you got a few responses, some with correct information, some with
speculations. Ben is correct, an official ATT unlock will, of course, not
jailbreak your phone. As for the SIM card, your phone would have come with a
little gadget to poke into the hole and pop out the SIM tray, but as already
mentioned, a bent-open paperclip will do just fine. From what I heard on
Today in iOS there is a process involved, my understanding is that if your
phone is off contract you simply request the unlock from ATT and within a
few hours you should receive an email with instructions. All people ever
reported was that the instructions were clear and easy to follow, nobody
explained exactly whether they had to download anything, I sort of doubt it
since updates for the iPhone as far as I know come from one place only and
that is Apple. I once bought a little Go Phone in Hawaii during a vacation
and when I was back in Canada I called ATT and explained that I bought this
for my holiday and now that I was back in Canada I'd like to use the phone
here. The lady gave me exact instructions on the phone, of course I had to
get a sighted person to do this, but it involved going into the menus and
eventually to punch in a very long code and once that was done the phone was
unlocked.

I have an unlocked iPhone 4S which I bought directly from Apple at full
price and all I can say is that it is definitely nice to have an unlocked
phone although unfortunately I didn't know about StraightTalk when I went to
Maui last March otherwise I might have been able to get some sort of plan,
ATT unfortunately is very stupid about it. If you are going to Europe or
Asia you should have no problem to get prepaid voice and data, only thing is
that maybe not all carriers or resellers may offer a micro SIM, I think I
might invest eventually in the SIM cutter from www.CutMySIM.com which allows
you to easily cut a regular SIM card down to micros SIM size and I think
they even give you an adapter which allows you to use it again in a
full-size SIM card slot.

Sieghard

RE: Voicebook

2012-08-25 Thread AnonyMouse
Hello,

 

We finally have figured out how to get more Newsfeed on the Facebook app. So
this should help for those that like the new Facebook app.

 

When you reach to the bottom of the Newsfeed. You will hear a noise like a
ding that tells you that there are no more feed to read. Well, it just so
happen that to a person with vision will see a dot right above the Home
button. So what you do is take a single finger and double tap hold. Now
swipe towards the top of your device and release. Wait a few seconds. Go
back down towards the bottom where you left off from the last status. Now
flick to the right. You will now have more newsfeed! I was able to do this
pretty consistant and now all of my feeds will now display past the 15th
Status.

 

Personally, I don't care for the VoiceBook VO for a number of reason.
Mostly, it doesn't show all of the status as I can get with the Facebook
app. No matter how quirky it is. Facebook app is now my to go to app.

 

Hope that helps!

I can't get Voicebook to work at all.  It stays in the same feed and says to
swipe up or down which I do but it stays in the same feed over and over.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.  I do like the regular facebook app
with the update but it doesn't show very many feeds.

 Hi Alvin, 
 
 Do you also sync your camera roll with your computer, and if so, do you sync 
 your computer with iCloud? If so, try moving the videos to a different 
 location on your computer.

 I turned off video backup in iCloud. I did a backup. I was told that the 
 video will be deleted from the iCloud backup. The backup size was reduced by 
 one gb. The strange thing is that when I turned back on the video backup, I 
 was told that the next backup size will be one gb larger again. This it 
 something I couldn't understand. Any idea? 
 
 Thanks.

RE: Prompts

2012-08-25 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I am not aware that there is such an app, after all, it's easy to clear the
apps in the app switcher and good practice to do so if not once a day at
least a few times a week. I have gotten so used to doing this and never have
issues with the iPhone or Voiceover becoming sluggish.

Sieghard
