Re: Muxic is an App Worth Checking Out

[David Morton]

I'm not entirely sure what's causing the sluggishness.  I never noticed it 
myself, but then again, I'm not a VoiceOver user.  

What I can tell you guys, is that there's a TON of things going on 
audio-wise behind the scenes in the app.  Not only is it validating timing 
for crossfade, but it's also handling audio normalization, etc, etc.  I'm 
wondering if VoiceOver is affected by the heavy use of the audio system. 

Here's a test... could someone run this for me?  Turn off Normalization 
entirely, and let me know if you still have the same issue.  

Unfortunately, this is one of those that I'm not sure I'll be able to fix.  

That being said, the frequent crashes should be fixed in the next few days 
when Apple pushes the latest version to the App Store.  I've fixed the two 
"Title" sections at the top of the Queue page for the release after that, 
and I've also added a few more goodies.  

Do be aware that in version 4.0, I'm moving the Stations tab to the library 
(where it probably should have been all along), and I'm creating a 
"Similar" tab that will provide you with personalized music suggestions 
based on the music that is already in your library.  

Again, let me know if there's anything I can do for any of you, and thanks 
for downloading and being patient as I work through some of the kinks.  I'm 
doing my best to make sure all of you are happy with your purchase.

Re: Muxic is an App Worth Checking Out

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hello David, thanks for your responses regarding this app. I for one 
feel it's a 5-star app and am happy that you have taken the time to join 
this busy list to give feedback and answer questions. I'll turn off the 
normalization and see what happens. I don't mind the slower response 
times as much as I mind the crashing. If I can get the app to crash with 
actual reproducible steps, I'll be sure to let you know.


All the best.

Re: ibooks

[Craig Werner]

The offer of a free copy of _Winnie-the-Pooh_ by A. A. Milne has long
expired.  The book is more than worth the purchase price, though.

Re: digit-eyes, mor information button

[JoJo and Clinton]

I purchased the full version of Digit eyes yesterday and really like it a lot.  
The only thing I find to be annoying is the fact that it asks me to log in 
every time I tap the information button to get more information on a particular 
item that i've scanned.  I did register so how do I log in using my digit eyes 
account?  Can someone help?

Thanks so much.

Make sure you have the latest version. I could find the numbers on the dial pad

Hello All.

Now that the Skype application is more accessible on the I phone and as I 
got rid of my Skype Adaptor which I was using on my chordless phone at home but 
using it no more, I am wishing to use Skype on my I phone to burn my unused 
credit.  However, if I call my bank, I am unable to key in numbers such for my 
account number and other info required so that I can use the automated service 
as when I bring up the dial pad, the numbers are displayed across rather than a 
traditional dial pad where you get one two three and then you move down a row 
and you get four five six you get the picture.  Can some one tell me if they 
have ever been able to key in numbers when you are using skype whilst on 
another call using it?  If not, who to contact to make this feature accessible 
namely the person who is in charge of making this application more accessible 
please?  I know this question may be better on the I phone list, but I do not 
belong to that.

Thanks in advance.

Re: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

I have the latest version but would like to see that the dial pad is made like 
the I phone, as you touch each number and lift your fingers off rather than 
double tapping the Dial pad. Can this be done?

New Tech Doctor Podcast entitled Teaching the Mac in France

[Robert Carter]

Hi All,

In this just published Tech Doctor podcast, Robert talks with Anne Robertson 
who lives in France.

In addition to working as a translator, Anne teaches blind and visually 
impaired people to use the Mac. Robert and Anne discuss her approach to 
training and explore how folks in France go about acquiring technology.

They discuss the use of braille and the popularity of ebooks. Anne reads lots 
of ebooks from a Canadian company called Cobo. These books are accessible on 
both the Mac and iOs devices. Check out the podcast for all of the details.

The Tech Doctor podcast is available on iTunes, iBlink radio and at
http://www.dr-carter.com

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?

[Scott Davert]

Thank you all for your feedback! I'll give stanza a try and see how
well it works.
I've tried renaming files with the xml extention to html, and it
didn't quite work out. I wanted the xml version of the file converted,
as this would preserve any formatting attributes found in the DAISY
content.
As it stands, I'm much more impressed with the readability of files
available in the iBooks app, than I am the read2go app. Being able to
search text, being able to use the command to move by page, and the
fact that braille support just seems better in iBooks are my reasons
for choosing it over Read2go.

Thank you all again for your responses!
Scott

I tried that and when I loaded it in Stanza, It had a lot of weird stuff at 
the beginning of the book.

You may be able to just rename the .xml to .html or .htm, I don't remember

Hi.

I think calibre can convert from xml. Unfortunately calibre is not much

sometimes not.

RE: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?

[Cristobal]

I do believe that Calibre while inaccessible with screen readers can still
be used to convert using the command line prompt. 
I haven't given it a try, but I have heard of others fiddling with it and
getting it to work.

You may also want to give that a try.

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?

Does anyone know anything about MobiPocket Creator?  If so, is it accesible?

I do believe that Calibre while inaccessible with screen readers can still
be used to convert using the command line prompt.
I haven't given it a try, but I have heard of others fiddling with it and
getting it to work.

You may also want to give that a try.

Thank you all for your feedback! I'll give stanza a try and see how well it
works.
I've tried renaming files with the xml extention to html, and it didn't
quite work out. I wanted the xml version of the file converted, as this
would preserve any formatting attributes found in the DAISY content.
As it stands, I'm much more impressed with the readability of files
available in the iBooks app, than I am the read2go app. Being able to search
text, being able to use the command to move by page, and the fact that
braille support just seems better in iBooks are my reasons for choosing it
over Read2go.

Thank you all again for your responses!

HI all.
I'm wondering if there is a simple utility to convert files from

iBooks? I have a mac, but would like to do the conversion process on
my PC if I can. I know about Robobraille, but am looking for a

HI Russ.
While using this program does create some odd text in the file, it
doesn't seem to be present when exported to iBooks. After this program
was suggested, I looked it up on AppleVis, and there's a step by step
guide on how to do this.

RE: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Kawal,

 

OK, here is a full explanation of the buttons and how to use them after you
initiate a call. I did not include a description of the Contacts tab and the
Call Phones tab as they are mostly self-explanatory. I am not sure where you
see the numbers displayed straight across, any time I use Skype and bring up
the DialPad during a call I get a normal telephone style DialPad. Now, I
think you are in the UK and I do remember something about Anne from France
having this issue although I can't remember if it was with Skype or the
regular Phone app so I guess this could be something that has to do with the
European region settings, but that's only speculation.

 

After you call your bank and the call has connected, you will have 5 buttons
at the bottom of the screen, from left to right they are:

 

Mute

Double tap to mute/unmute the call

 

Earpiece

Double tap and just above and in the middle you get "Speakerphone" and
"Earpiece" options. Double tap on Speakerphone and the call will switch to
Speakerphone. At that point the "Earpiece" button in the bottom row is now
called "Speakerphone". Double tap it again and you can choose "Earpiece"
above to switch back to the earpiece.

Please note that if  you use a headset when you start the call the
"Earpiece" button is called "Headset" and your options above after double
tapping it are "Speakerphone" and "Headset".

 

Dialpad

This will pull up a typical phone style DialPad with 1, 2, 3 at the top, 4,
5, 6 below, 7, 8m 9 below that and * 0 and # which in Skype is called "Hash"
at the very bottom.

I can't remember if the DialPad that comes up when you are in a call used to
have the letters on it, but if it did they are now gone. However, they are
still there on the main DialPad which comes up when you double tap on the
"Call Phones" tab. If, for example, you find the "2" and then slide down a
tiny bit you will hear "ABC" before you get to the 5.

Now, only thing to keep in mind is that the Skype DialPad does not work with
the touch typing method so you do have to double tap or split tab on the
numbers to dial them.

But I did just test this to make sure nothing has changed, I called my
Mastercard toll free number, I could easily enter "1" for English and then
my 16-digit card number. I find split tapping here works better as it's a
bit faster. Now on to the next button:

 

Show Options

This button brings up some options above, "Show Messages" and "Show All
Messages".

However, I noticed just today that if you slide your finger up from the
"Show Messages" or flick left, Voiceover announces the call duration, then
the name of the contact or phone number you dialed and right at the very top
or where you can't flick left any further there is also a "Show Dialpad"
button which will bring up the Dialpad. It is, of course, easier to just
double tap on the "Dialpad" button, but it's there.

If you double tap "Show Messages", the call window disappears and you are
placed in the messages tab and see all messages related to whoever you are
currently calling. If it is a Skype Out number, you would just see all call
start/end times and call durations. If it is a Skype contact and you
exchanged text messages, you would see those as well.

If you double tap on the "Show All Messages" button the active call window
disappears and you are placed in the main Messages tab where all your
contacts are listed with whom you exchanged messages or placed calls. You
can double tab on any of them to see all the details. 

At the bottom you have 4 tabs, from left to right they are:

 

Contacts

This displays all your contacts

 

Messages

This will show as "selected" and of course displays all your messages

 

Active Call

This will take you back to your active call window where you get back your
initial options and can hang up. If you are not in a call this tab is called
"Call Phones"

 

My Info

Here you can change your Avatar, sign out, type a mood message, see/change
your status, go into your profile, see how much Skype credit you have, see
the status of your Skype number if you have one and the same for voice
messages and call forwarding. At the bottom is the "About Skype" which
displays version information.

 

OK, now back to the last button on the very bottom right of the active call
window:

 

End Call

As the name indicates, this will hang up the call.

 

A few final remarks: If you are calling a Skype contact there is no DialPad
button, but the first button on the left is now "Video". The other 4 buttons
are still there, but "Mute" is now second from the left, "Earpiece/Headset
is now in the middle right above the Home key where the Dialpad button is
for a regular phone call and "Show Options" and "End Call" are the same.

If you start a voice call you can double tap the "Video" button on the very
bottom left and start the camera. Skype will use the front camera (facing
you) by default, but once video is going you can double tap the "Video"
button again and above

Re: NFL App question.

[Wayne Merritt]

There are two I can think of right off, both are accessible. One is
called Pro Football Radio and Media, and the other is called Pro
Football Radio and Live Scores. Both offer different tidbits, like the
Live Scores app offers constantly updated scores when listening to a
game or browsing through the games on at the time. Both have similar
layouts across the bottom, such as schedules, teams, and so forth. The
Live Scores app lets you mark certain stations as favorites, and then
access them from the favorites tab on the bottom of most app screens,
as well as showing the frequency and call letters of stations for each
team. The Pro Football Radio and Media app lets you listen to podcasts
on your favorite team  which offer may include game highlights of the
prior game's activity and scoring. As I say, both are equally
accessible and cost $0.99 in the App Store. My favorite is Pro
Football Radio and Live Scores, for the live scores, the ability to
see station information, and the ability to mark stations as
favorites. I also like how the schedule screen is laid out, showing
past games, and live/final games. There are other apps for listening
to games, but these are the ones I know about and have tried.

Wayne

RE: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi again, Kawal,

 

I would assume it can be done, but it is currently not possible. This would
be something for a feedback message to Skype requesting that they allow for
touch typing on their DialPad. Maybe others on the list who know more about
this can chime in because for all I know Apple might have put a restriction
on where you can use touch typing. Strictly speaking a DialPad is not an
edit field so maybe it can't be done. Anyhow, if you practice your split
tapping where you find the number you want with one finger and then touch
the screen with a second finger to dial it you may find this works quite
well. I find it easier and quicker than double tapping each number.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Re: Muxic app help

[David Morton]

Thom, 

I'm David Morton.  I wrote the application. 

Yes, version 3.0, which is what you have, is crashing alot.  This is 
extremely frustrating to me to see so many users experiencing problems. 

That being said, there's good news.  I've fixed the bugs that are causing 
most of the crashes.  

And now for more bad news: It takes Apple about 10 days right now to review 
and approve.  By that measure, we're looking at an update actually hitting 
the app store sometime in the middle of next week.  

Again, I apologize for the crashes, and extremely disappointed in myself 
for letting them escape, but they should be fixed soon.

This isn't possible with Google Voice either. I believe that I read on here
or some other tech forum that one touch typing for internet based phone
services such as these isn't currently possible. Who knows.

HI Russ.
While using this program does create some odd text in the file, it
doesn't seem to be present when exported to iBooks. After this program
was suggested, I looked it up on AppleVis, and there's a step by step
guide on how to do this.

I do believe that Calibre while inaccessible with screen readers can still
be used to convert using the command line prompt.
I haven't given it a try, but I have heard of others fiddling with it and
getting it to work.

You may also want to give that a try.

Thank you all for your feedback! I'll give stanza a try and see how well 
it

works.
I've tried renaming files with the xml extention to html, and it didn't
quite work out. I wanted the xml version of the file converted, as this
would preserve any formatting attributes found in the DAISY content.
As it stands, I'm much more impressed with the readability of files
available in the iBooks app, than I am the read2go app. Being able to
search
text, being able to use the command to move by page, and the fact that
braille support just seems better in iBooks are my reasons for choosing it
over Read2go.

Thank you all again for your responses!

HI all.
I'm wondering if there is a simple utility to convert files from
various formats such as xml and MS Word into ePub for reading in
iBooks? I have a mac, but would like to do the conversion process on
my PC if I can. I know about Robobraille, but am looking for a
software solution that may also allow me to do batch conversion if

possible.


Thanks in advance for any help!

that all of the episodes would show up.  Any thoughts on this?

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?

[Scott Davert]

Right, you have to open the xml with a web browser, copy the text to
the clipboard, and then press alt f to get in to the file menu and
choose create new from clipboard. The shortcut keys for various things
don't seem to work, but you can access the menu structure  through the
one that does work, alt f. Then, Just hit alt f again, and go to save
as and enter the book name followed by the .epub extention. Also,
since iBooks indexes books based on the information you can edit in
this program, you need to set the title and author accordingly. Do so
by pressing alt V, and then arrowing down to book info. You can
backspace out the title of unknown and enter whatever you want. Also
note that the next field you get to when tabbing will say "genre" but
it's mislabled. It's actually the author.
After saving the file where ever you want, copy it to Dropbox, open
Dropbox app on phone, find file, open file, and then go down to the
lower right corner of the screen on your iDevice and double tap the
export button. Choose to export to iBooks, and then wait. Once the
export process has completed, the file will be in your iBooks library
and iBooks will open the file for reading.

Hope this helps,
Scott

RE: Muxic is an App Worth Checking Out

[Jonathan Mosen]

I've seen the sluggishness, but it's not exclusive to Muxic. For example I
find on my 4S that Downcast and Musicdock make VoiceOver slower to respond
as well. Perhaps Muxic is a bit worse than those two apps, but I suspect
that's because of it's intensive nature.

Hello David, thanks for your responses regarding this app. I for one feel
it's a 5-star app and am happy that you have taken the time to join this
busy list to give feedback and answer questions. I'll turn off the
normalization and see what happens. I don't mind the slower response times
as much as I mind the crashing. If I can get the app to crash with actual
reproducible steps, I'll be sure to let you know.

All the best.

Re: digit-eyes, identifying unknown labels?

[Nancy M]

Hi Erik,

I talked to you this morning and (oddly) to another person with the 
identical issue.

The problem (at least then) was that your client had purchased the washable 
code 128 labels from Envision America and, when our software finds these, 
we just report what the number is and don't allow recording.  To record 
using Digit-Eyes, you need to either print your own Digit-eyes labels 
(which is free) or buy the washable ones from us.

At least at present.

To set up the accessibility settings on the iPhone, go to settings -> 
general -> accessibility -> voiceover and set them as you need.   If want 
to set on the triple-click home feature, that is on the accessibility page, 
not the voiceover page and is located at the very bottom.

I appreciate the fact that you took the time to call -- please do call back 
any time that we can help.   

And stay tuned for the neat features in the next release of Digit-Eyes!

Cordially,
Nancy

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?

[Tara Prakash]

Does it keep the headings in tact for you?
I get thousands of page breaks and no headings when I convert xml files to 
epub.

Right, you have to open the xml with a web browser, copy the text to
the clipboard, and then press alt f to get in to the file menu and
choose create new from clipboard. The shortcut keys for various things
don't seem to work, but you can access the menu structure  through the
one that does work, alt f. Then, Just hit alt f again, and go to save
as and enter the book name followed by the .epub extention. Also,
since iBooks indexes books based on the information you can edit in
this program, you need to set the title and author accordingly. Do so
by pressing alt V, and then arrowing down to book info. You can
backspace out the title of unknown and enter whatever you want. Also
note that the next field you get to when tabbing will say "genre" but
it's mislabled. It's actually the author.
After saving the file where ever you want, copy it to Dropbox, open
Dropbox app on phone, find file, open file, and then go down to the
lower right corner of the screen on your iDevice and double tap the
export button. Choose to export to iBooks, and then wait. Once the
export process has completed, the file will be in your iBooks library
and iBooks will open the file for reading.

general question about the weather radio app and push notifications

[Paul and Paula Jordan]

Several people on this list have mentioned a weather radio app that allows
alerts to be set up.  I saw 2 weather radio apps in the app store.  One was
the NOAA weather radio app that costs  $4.95.  Is this the one you're
referring to?  

 On a different topic, what are push notifications?  Does one have to do
something with the phone to hear them?  Thanks.

Hi,
You may be able to just rename the .xml to .html or .htm, I don't remember
which one works the best.

Hi.

I think calibre can convert from xml. Unfortunately calibre is not much
accessible, but maybe it will work. I have sometimes got it to work and
sometimes not.

Best regards Annie.

RE: Muxic app help

[Thom]

Hi David,
I can understand what goes into building an app. I can be patient until the
next update comes up.
Let me know if there is anything in the future that you'd like  some
feedback on. I have quite a bit of computer experience and would love to
help someone in that capacity.

Thom,  

I'm David Morton.  I wrote the application. 

Yes, version 3.0, which is what you have, is crashing alot.  This is
extremely frustrating to me to see so many users experiencing problems. 

That being said, there's good news.  I've fixed the bugs that are causing
most of the crashes.  

And now for more bad news: It takes Apple about 10 days right now to review
and approve.  By that measure, we're looking at an update actually hitting
the app store sometime in the middle of next week.  

Again, I apologize for the crashes, and extremely disappointed in myself for
letting them escape, but they should be fixed soon.

Re: Muxic app help

Be patient no more.  

It's out in the U.S. Store already, and I think it should be ready to go 
internationally in a matter of hours, if it's not already out there.

Re: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

Hi Sieghard.

Thanks for your full explanation and yes you are right about the dial Pad 
coming up correctly whilst in a call as I did it just now although I am not 
fast enough to put in the numbers as I need to practice as I am not use to 
tapping twice to enter a number as I use touch typing on my I phone.

I will look at your e-mail slowly to try and picture what you say when I next 
use Skype on my I phone and there was no difference in what you said as now for 
some reason the dial pad is showing correctly.  Do you know who to contact if I 
wish to ask if the numbers can be made like the I phone?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Muxic is an App Worth Checking Out

[David Morton]

3.0.1 is out in the U.S. App Store, and internationally should be following 
very quickly, if it's not already out.  

This update should (crossing fingers) solve the frequent crashes many of 
you are experiencing.

After the at bat update the articles in the news ...

[Tom Rash]

After the at bat update the articles in the news tab don't read as well. I 
should say the titles don't read as well. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any 
work arounds for it?

Resources for comparing iOS and android

[Ioana Gandrabur]

Hi all,

I am impatiently waiting for the iPhone five because I have a new upgrade 
coming exactly at this time.

However I would be curious to find any interesting documentation about 
comparing accessibility and features of android phones and iOS. Anybody that 
can point me to any such info?

Thanks,

Re: Resources for comparing iOS and android

[Wayne Merritt]

Look at podcasts from Blind Cool Tech:
www.blindcooltech.com
SeroTalk:
www.serotalk.com
among others. If you can wait till September 21, that is the release
date of the next iPhone/iOS 6, or until next Wednesday when Apple will
have its press event unvailing the next iPhone and new iOS version,
that should provide some more details on accessibility and many other
things.

Good luck,
Wayne

Re: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

[Scott Howell]

Yes it could be possible if the developers implement it. Apple does not block 
this capability from developers.

App to compress mobile data

[Keith Watson]

Hi All,

There is a new app in the app store named Snappli that will do video and data 
compression on the fly. What does this mean? So lets say you go to YouTube and 
view a 1 meg video. Snappli will compress the incoming video stream to anywhere 
between 600K and 800K. That's 20 to 40%. Why should you care? Well if you have 
a data cap of 500 meg or 2 Gig then you can stream 20 to 40% more stuff before 
reaching your data cap. And here's the best part. It's free!

And before you ask, no I don't have the iTunes url. Just search for S N A P P L 
I in the app store.

Have fun

Keith

Focus or other Facebook app

[Regina Alvarado]

Is there a paid version of Focus for Facebook? If not, can someone tell me
how to fix this, please.  

 

I was running down my unread feed.  At the bottom of the screen is always an
iAdd.  By accident I touched the screen with another finger which took me
into the iAdd.  I found the close add button, but when I got back to my
previous screen there was nothing on the screen.  The only place I could
find the feed was in the dock.  When I tapped on the item it did nothing.  I
could not back out of the feed or go forward.  I closed the app and
re-opened, but still I was in that same sdcreen.  I had to completely turn
off my phone and re-start it to have the feed show correctly.  I thought
this was just a fluke (bad operator), but I did it on purpose twice more so
I know this is what happens.  What is the best app for Facebook other than
Focus o is there a way to stop the adds from messing up the app if opened by
accident or even on purpose?  

 

Another question about Focus.  Is there a way to friend or accept friend
requests on Focus itself or do I have to go to the site?  I truly like
Focus.  It is straightforward without a lot of junk to wade through, but I
really need to know how to fix if I am going to continue using it.  Thanks
in advance for any help given.

RE: Resources for comparing iOS and android

[Jonathan Mosen]

Another resource you might consider is the BlindPhones discussion list.
Unlike a lot of lists out there, this one is not platform specific, so it
allows people to discuss the merits of one platform over another. There are
a number of users on it who have used Android and iOS.

3.0.1 is out in the U.S. App Store, and internationally should be following
very quickly, if it's not already out.  

 

This update should (crossing fingers) solve the frequent crashes many of you

Hello David, thanks for your responses regarding this app. I for one feel 
it's a 5-star app and am happy that you have taken the time to join this 
busy list to give feedback and answer questions. I'll turn off the 
normalization and see what happens. I don't mind the slower response times 
as much as I mind the crashing. If I can get the app to crash with actual 
reproducible steps, I'll be sure to let you know. 

All the best.

I'm not entirely sure what's causing the sluggishness.  I never noticed it
myself, but then again, I'm not a VoiceOver user.  

 

What I can tell you guys, is that there's a TON of things going on
audio-wise behind the scenes in the app.  Not only is it validating timing
for crossfade, but it's also handling audio normalization, etc, etc.  I'm
wondering if VoiceOver is affected by the heavy use of the audio system. 

 

Here's a test... could someone run this for me?  Turn off Normalization
entirely, and let me know if you still have the same issue.  

 

Unfortunately, this is one of those that I'm not sure I'll be able to fix.  

 

That being said, the frequent crashes should be fixed in the next few days
when Apple pushes the latest version to the App Store.  I've fixed the two
"Title" sections at the top of the Queue page for the release after that,
and I've also added a few more goodies.  

 

Do be aware that in version 4.0, I'm moving the Stations tab to the library
(where it probably should have been all along), and I'm creating a "Similar"
tab that will provide you with personalized music suggestions based on the
music that is already in your library.  

 

Again, let me know if there's anything I can do for any of you, and thanks
for downloading and being patient as I work through some of the kinks.  I'm
doing my best to make sure all of you are happy with your purchase.

slower to respond and other things are slower to happen, both in and out of

Re: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

[David Chittenden]

Hello,

Rather than double-tapping, try split-tapping on the buttons. To split-tap, 
place a finger on the button you want. Touch and release the screen with 
another finger. When you lift the second finger, the selected button (number, 
call, Etc.) will be activated. I find this method to be almost as fast as 
touch-typing. Some have reported it to be faster with experience.

Re: NetFlicks and adding programs to instant queue?

[Kevin Barry]

It's quite simple using Win7.
Just search for  what you want.
Assuming you find it, there is a button that says "instant queue".
Just hit it and you're there.

Hi,

I have figured out how to add programs to the instant queue in

what you want to watch, as you have to toggle VO off/on to scroll

from my Windows 7 PC then watch them on the phone. However, I cannot 
find a way to do this, or to see the brief description of the 
program when using the PC.


Can anyone offer any advice?


Many thanks,

Re: Can't upgrade listrecorder

Hi Ann,

I would just add to  what sieghard said by noting that the in app 
purchase bug from the first release is no longer a problem.  So getting the 
full version as described should go fine.

RE: A Skype Query on the I Phone.

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hello Kawal,

 

I read a bit more about this issue with the keypad not working in touch
typing mode and it appears that this currently is an iOS limitation. You
might want to send an email to accessibil...@apple.com and just ask them why
you are not able to use the touch typing method with the Skype DialPad. It
would be interesting to see how they explain this. Of course iOS 6 is coming
out in about 2 weeks so maybe this will allow for this which would mean a
future Skype update then could make use of the touch typing method on the
DialPad. As far as sending this to Skype, you can go to the "My Info" tab at
the bottom right of the main screen, then at the very bottom of that list
tap on "About Skype" and then swipe right until you hear "Send Feedback" and
double tap. I think this opens either a form or email.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi Sieghard.

Thanks for your full explanation and yes you are right about the dial Pad
coming up correctly whilst in a call as I did it just now although I am not
fast enough to put in the numbers as I need to practice as I am not use to
tapping twice to enter a number as I use touch typing on my I phone.

 

I will look at your e-mail slowly to try and picture what you say when I
next use Skype on my I phone and there was no difference in what you said as
now for some reason the dial pad is showing correctly.  Do you know who to
contact if I wish to ask if the numbers can be made like the I phone?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Kawal,

 

OK, here is a full explanation of the buttons and how to use them after you
initiate a call. I did not include a description of the Contacts tab and the
Call Phones tab as they are mostly self-explanatory. I am not sure where you
see the numbers displayed straight across, any time I use Skype and bring up
the DialPad during a call I get a normal telephone style DialPad. Now, I
think you are in the UK and I do remember something about Anne from France
having this issue although I can't remember if it was with Skype or the
regular Phone app so I guess this could be something that has to do with the
European region settings, but that's only speculation.

 

After you call your bank and the call has connected, you will have 5 buttons
at the bottom of the screen, from left to right they are:

 

Mute

Double tap to mute/unmute the call

 

Earpiece

Double tap and just above and in the middle you get "Speakerphone" and
"Earpiece" options. Double tap on Speakerphone and the call will switch to
Speakerphone. At that point the "Earpiece" button in the bottom row is now
called "Speakerphone". Double tap it again and you can choose "Earpiece"
above to switch back to the earpiece.

Please note that if  you use a headset when you start the call the
"Earpiece" button is called "Headset" and your options above after double
tapping it are "Speakerphone" and "Headset".

 

Dialpad

This will pull up a typical phone style DialPad with 1, 2, 3 at the top, 4,
5, 6 below, 7, 8m 9 below that and * 0 and # which in Skype is called "Hash"
at the very bottom.

I can't remember if the DialPad that comes up when you are in a call used to
have the letters on it, but if it did they are now gone. However, they are
still there on the main DialPad which comes up when you double tap on the
"Call Phones" tab. If, for example, you find the "2" and then slide down a
tiny bit you will hear "ABC" before you get to the 5.

Now, only thing to keep in mind is that the Skype DialPad does not work with
the touch typing method so you do have to double tap or split tab on the
numbers to dial them.

But I did just test this to make sure nothing has changed, I called my
Mastercard toll free number, I could easily enter "1" for English and then
my 16-digit card number. I find split tapping here works better as it's a
bit faster. Now on to the next button:

 

Show Options

This button brings up some options above, "Show Messages" and "Show All
Messages".

However, I noticed just today that if you slide your finger up from the
"Show Messages" or flick left, Voiceover announces the call duration, then
the name of the contact or phone number you dialed and right at the very top
or where you can't flick left any further there is also a "Show Dialpad"
button which will bring up the Dialpad. It is, of course, easier to just
double tap on the "Dialpad" button, but it's there.

If you double tap "Show Messages", the call window disappears and you are
placed in the messages tab and see all messages related to whoever you are
currently calling. If it is a Skype Out number, you would just see all call
start/end times and call durations. If it is a Skype contact and you
exchanged text messages, you would see those as well.

Muxic Question

[Tamara Rorie, Esq.]

Hi List:

I got the app yesterday and am loving it.  I do have one question, though.
I notice that after listening for a few minutes, the app will suddenly close
and the music will stop with no warning and for no reason.  Is there a
setting that I can change that will make this stop?  It often happens in the
middle of a song and when I go back in, I have to start the song over again.
Also, on another note, I 

 

Did turn normalization off and have had no problems with V/O sluggishness.

 

Thanks,

Tamara

Re: Muxic Question

[Wayne Merritt]

The update released today in the US app store is supposed to fix
crashing issues, according to the developer. I've also turned
normalization off and have experienced less sluggishness. I won't say
it is gone altogether, but definitely not nearly as much. I'm also
able to use other apps while Muxic is going in the background, which
before there was a delay with this. I would love to be able to use
normalization though without the sluggishness, since not all of my
tunes are at the same levels. Perhaps the next iPhone will assist with
some of these intensive processes.

Right. I meant in the current version it may not be possible. Should have been

Hello All.

Now that the Skype application is more accessible on the I phone 
and as I got rid of my Skype Adaptor which I was using on my chordless phone at 
home but using it no more, I am wishing to use Skype on my I phone to burn my 
unused credit.  However, if I call my bank, I am unable to key in numbers such 
for my account number and other info required so that I can use the automated 
service as when I bring up the dial pad, the numbers are displayed across 
rather than a traditional dial pad where you get one two three and then you 
move down a row and you get four five six you get the picture.  Can some one 
tell me if they have ever been able to key in numbers when you are using skype 
whilst on another call using it?  If not, who to contact to make this feature 
accessible namely the person who is in charge of making this application more 
accessible please?  I know this question may be better on the I phone list, but 
I do not belong to that.

Thanks in advance.

Kawal.
