A few iTunes oddities
Hi all, I've noticed a few oddities with the latest version of iTunes. My screen reader is JAWS 14, and I have an iPhone 5. Any input on any of the following would be greatly appreciated. 1) I cannot sync only selected audiobooks to my phone - it's either all or nothing. If I choose selected, no list of audiobooks appears from which I can choose. 2) I cannot download past purchased songs or preview any songs in the store--JAWS simply refuses to click on the relevant controls, detecting them instead as static text. 3) App updates don't automatically sync from my phone back to iTunes--I have to select transfer purchases otherwise the older version of the app remains in my library. 4) I have a very extensive playlist which will not appear in iTunes Match. It says iCloud, error playlist next to it. So I decided to create a smart playlist that was identical to the original playlist in question, but that excluded songs with iCloud status error. That playlist too, shows iCloud, Error playlist next to it. So I created the opposite smart playlist--one that only shows songs with iCloud status error. That playlist is empty, meaning that the songs should all be fine. Nevertheless, the original playlist absolutely will not appear on other devices with iTunes Match enabled. 5) I'm wondering if anyone with a carrier-unlocked phone has found an easy way to get past the congratulations, your device has been unlocked message that shows upon activation? There is supposed to be a continue button but it absolutely will not show up for me. Doing something else (i.e. closing and then reopening iTunes) will cause the screen to disappear, but I find this disconcerting; I now activate over the air rather than in iTunes when I do a reset for this reason alone.

Re: ITunes Questions
I am glad i haven't upgraded my itunes yet on my windows 7 machine. Everything is so easy to find in itunes 10.6 that i will hold off on my upgrade. The latest and greatest thing is not always as great as advertised.

If you go to the View menu and it says “Hide Sidebar” then you already have the sidebar visible and if you do a Control+S it will hide it, the shortcut key is a toggle. It is easiest to use F6 to find the sidebar, once youa re on it, Jaws will say “Sources Tree View”. I actually prefer now not to show the sidebar. If I want to change from the music library to the books library or the apps library I either use the shortcuts, Control+1 for music, Control+2 for movies, Control+3 for TV Shows, Control+6 for Books and Control+7 for Apps. Control+4 and Control+5 don’t do anything in my setup and if you, for example, uncheck Movies in the Preferences, Control+2 will not do anything. Another way to navigate to those areas is to use Control+Shift+F to jump into the “Search Library” edit field, then tab twice and you are on Music if your music library is what has focus. Press enter or space and a treeview opens where you can now arrow down to movies, Books, Apps etc. I never thought of iTunes as all that bad and I like iTunes 11 even better since it seems to be somewhat faster and more efficient. However, I believe Jaws 14 definitely will give you the best performance and, if you haven’t done so already, I highly recommend you listen to the December and January FS Casts Jonathan did. His 2-part series on iTunes 11 with Jaws 14 definitely helps in understanding iTunes and how to make the best of it. You can find the podcasts on the Freedom Scientific website under FS Casts. As for your girl-friends iPhone not showing up, I can’t explain it, if I enable the sidebar and connect my iPhone it shows up under Devices as it always has. If I hide the sidebar which, as I said before, I prefer, I find the “iPhone” button as follows: I press Control+Shift+F to go to the Search Library edit field. I press F6 once to jump to the first drop-down list of the column browser which is Genre. Of course that assumes you have the column browser enabled. I then Shift+Tab twice and I’m on the “iPhone” button, enter or space will activate it. I then have all the usual buttons like Summary, Info, Apps, Tones etc. which I can check to manage the various sync aspects of iTunes with my iPhone. The column browser, by the way, can only be enabled if you check the “Songs” button, it is greyed out if artists, albums or genres are selected.

Be that as it may, I realize that I have to put up with it, so, toward that end, I have some questions. My girlfriend and I both have ITunes version 11.something-or-other on our computers and we can't seem to get to the sources tree view consistently and easily. Is there a keyboard command that will consistently make it visible and bring focus to it? Second, on my Windows XP machine, I can see my iPhone 4 listed in the sources tree view when it's connected. On my girlfriend's machine running Windows 7, however, even though her iPhone 4 is connected and it syncs, the phone is not visible in the sources tree view. Why is that and how can we fix the problem. Both of our iPhone 4's are running IOS 6.1.2. There are other issues regarding her ITunes library, but I won't get into those right now. Thanks in advance.

1password for iphone, password copy using VoiceOver
Dear listers, Today I found out something about 1password that I thought I'd share. Question was: when using 1password on the iphone, how do I copy a certain password over to another application? Say you're inside the passwords tab sheet, or section. There you have a list of assigned text labels that indicate what each password is for, and if you double tap one using VoiceOver, you land in a new screen where you can see the password in question. Below it is the toggle to require master password authentication but instead, look at the password itself. VoiceOver will just read it, meaning it is not currently selected. Now, if you double tap the password, it becomes selected, and if you flick left or right, nothing appears to have changed on the screen. However, a sighted person told me that if you now touch just above the password, you'll find something that says: copy, menu item. You won't find this menu item using flick gestures. From here on it's easy: just double tap copy, and the password will go to the ios clipboard. Close 1password, go into another app and there into a text field, have the rotor on edit, flick down till you find paste, double tap it and you're done. Nice to know. A question in this regard is, what it means that we hear VoiceOver say: menu item. Could this imply that there are more items on the screen than just the word copy? I don't find any other items, and flicking while the VoiceOver cursor is on the copy menu item doesn't help me further. So what do you do when you encounter such a menu item? Can we reach other options from there? I tried the rotor to find a clue, but no luck, so I'm interested to hear if you know this.

Hey DJ. I use square myself. It's a great business tool for what I need. My work around on the sound jack being used by the square is either a splitter, I plug square into one jack and used to plug my Icom into another.

I think there may be some work arounds, but not entirely sure of them or their degree of success. A local coffee shop here uses it on an IPad mini now days. As the customer I am suppose to make some selectgions after they slide the card, but I can not make those selections. It wants me to select if I am leaving them a tip and if I want a text message receipt. They do not get a tip for holding a cup under a spout and possibly entering a food order into the register and I don't care about a text receipt. One day I mentioned that they could set voiceover to be on triple click of the home button, but they reminded me about the module plugged into the headphone jack too.

How can I remove the birthdays from calendar app?
I can’t figure out how to remove the birthday calendar from the Calendar app. It got the birthdays from my contact list, I think. When I try to look at a list view it always starts with January 2012 and has all the birthdays. The list goes through 2015. To find the real appointments and such I have to keep scrolling and scrolling. I just want to remove all the birthday calendar. I can’t seem to get a list view that just shows the regular calendar. When I did get a list view that included the birthdays and was going up and down the list it would read the wrong dates for specific appointments. Then when I would go back to it again it would read different dates. I did go to the month view and checked the dates to see if they were correct and they were. Is the only way to remove the birthdays to go to each contact and remove the date? That would really be a pain. I went to the calendars and then edit and then birthdays and it did nothing. Help, please. I really prefer the real calendar since Siri enters the appointments for me. Sherrie -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Gallegos r...@raulgallegos.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2013 8:38 PM Subject: Re: google voice Hello there. You will probably get other answers and so far I have read two other messages on this. It is not exactly a VoIP number, instead it is a virtual number. This means that for the most part if you have it forwarding to your cell phone number, when you make and receive calls to or from your Google voice number it will still use your cell phone minutes. You can of course use apps like talkatone to make data voice calls. One advantage of Google voice is that if you use it to text message, the messages are On the Google voice website and are virtually stored forever. Or at least as long as you want them to. In any case, a lot longer and easier to manage than the messages app on the phone. Another advantage is that if you get an incoming call through your Google voice number, you can record the phone call. This will play a message that all parties will here so they know they are being recorded. This comes in handy and of course you can later retrieve it from the Google voice website. There are many more advantages and I could go on forever and ever since I am a huge fan of Google voice. However I will mention one last advantage and say no more unless others are interested. I have an ObiTalk Phone bridge adapter. With this adapter I can make it so it uses Google voice as it's line. That means that my home phone is actually a Google voice number and I don't have to pay for home phone service. As long as I have this adapter connected to the Internet and configured, then I get free phone service.

Netatmo weather station
Sieghard, thank you very much for the info, looking forward to what you will have to say when you reconnect the unit to your new router using your IPhone. I've read all the details about the station on the site and will definitely buy it if you find it easy to set up. How about setting the connection between the indoor and outdoor unit? Is it done via your I device as well? Is it totally accessible? I'd rather not use a PC unless it's absolutely necessary to do any of the setting up as my version of JAWS is not as recent as yours and I can't update it easily. but we won't go into that!

RE: A few iTunes oddities
Hi Grant, I can't confirm your first point, somebody else brought it up last week and I checked it out and found the same happens for me on this latest iTunes update. Probably a good idea if everybody who cares about it will write to Apple Accessibility as well as Freedom Scientific. I'll try and check out your second and third point, but I rarely use playlists and don't use iTunes match at all. As for your fifth point I also can't comment since I bought my iPhone 4S directly from Apple at full price and already unlocked. Regards, Sieghard -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Grant Hardy Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2013 1:22 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: A few iTunes oddities Hi all, I've noticed a few oddities with the latest version of iTunes. My screen reader is JAWS 14, and I have an iPhone 5. Any input on any of the following would be greatly appreciated. 1) I cannot sync only selected audiobooks to my phone - it's either all or nothing. If I choose selected, no list of audiobooks appears from which I can choose. 2) I cannot download past purchased songs or preview any songs in the store--JAWS simply refuses to click on the relevant controls, detecting them instead as static text. 3) App updates don't automatically sync from my phone back to iTunes--I have to select transfer purchases otherwise the older version of the app remains in my library. 4) I have a very extensive playlist which will not appear in iTunes Match. It says iCloud, error playlist next to it. So I decided to create a smart playlist that was identical to the original playlist in question, but that excluded songs with iCloud status error. That playlist too, shows iCloud, Error playlist next to it. So I created the opposite smart playlist--one that only shows songs with iCloud status error. That playlist is empty, meaning that the songs should all be fine. Nevertheless, the original playlist absolutely will not appear on other devices with iTunes Match enabled. 5) I'm wondering if anyone with a carrier-unlocked phone has found an easy way to get past the congratulations, your device has been unlocked message that shows upon activation? There is supposed to be a continue button but it absolutely will not show up for me. Doing something else (i.e. closing and then reopening iTunes) will cause the screen to disappear, but I find this disconcerting; I now activate over the air rather than in iTunes when I do a reset for this reason alone.

RE: ITunes Questions
Hi marco, Everything is in fact just as easy to find in iTunes 11, but it's different and involves a bit of a learning curve. The old and familiar is always what some people prefer even if the new is better and there is no doubt that iTunes 11 is faster and now that I have gotten used to it and figured out all the shortcuts, I actually like how Apple has redesigned it. I should, however, say that in the very latest iTunes 11 update a few bugs have crept in, one of them being the one about not being able to sync selected audio books. I mostly listen to my Audio Books with Audible, but for some this could be a big issue and hopefully it is something either Apple or Freedom Scientific will fix. It would be interesting to see if somebody who uses Window Eyes experiences the same problem and I will maybe try it tonight with System Access to Go.

If you go to the View menu and it says Hide Sidebar then you already have the sidebar visible and if you do a Control+S it will hide it, the shortcut key is a toggle. It is easiest to use F6 to find the sidebar, once youa re on it, Jaws will say Sources Tree View. I actually prefer now not to show the sidebar. If I want to change from the music library to the books library or the apps library I either use the shortcuts, Control+1 for music, Control+2 for movies, Control+3 for TV Shows, Control+6 for Books and Control+7 for Apps. Control+4 and Control+5 don't do anything in my setup and if you, for example, uncheck Movies in the Preferences, Control+2 will not do anything. Another way to navigate to those areas is to use Control+Shift+F to jump into the Search Library edit field, then tab twice and you are on Music if your music library is what has focus. Press enter or space and a treeview opens where you can now arrow down to movies, Books, Apps etc. I never thought of iTunes as all that bad and I like iTunes 11 even better since it seems to be somewhat faster and more efficient. However, I believe Jaws 14 definitely will give you the best performance and, if you haven't done so already, I highly recommend you listen to the December and January FS Casts Jonathan did. His 2-part series on iTunes 11 with Jaws 14 definitely helps in understanding iTunes and how to make the best of it. You can find the podcasts on the Freedom Scientific website under FS Casts. As for your girl-friends iPhone not showing up, I can't explain it, if I enable the sidebar and connect my iPhone it shows up under Devices as it always has. If I hide the sidebar which, as I said before, I prefer, I find the iPhone button as follows: I press Control+Shift+F to go to the Search Library edit field. I press F6 once to jump to the first drop-down list of the column browser which is Genre. Of course that assumes you have the column browser enabled. I then Shift+Tab twice and I'm on the iPhone button, enter or space will activate it. I then have all the usual buttons like Summary, Info, Apps, Tones etc. which I can check to manage the various sync aspects of iTunes with my iPhone. The column browser, by the way, can only be enabled if you check the Songs button, it is greyed out if artists, albums or genres are selected.

My girlfriend and I both have ITunes version 11.something-or-other on our computers and we can't seem to get to the sources tree view consistently and easily. Is there a keyboard command that will consistently make it visible and bring focus to it? Second, on my Windows XP machine, I can see my iPhone 4 listed in the sources tree view when it's connected. On my girlfriend's machine running Windows 7, however, even though her iPhone 4 is connected and it syncs, the phone is not visible in the sources tree view.

RE: What's going on with the app Store?
I have a slightly different problem, but it may be related to last night, I'm not sure. I'm using the Apple Bluetooth keyboard. When I double tap the password field on the iPhone screen, No keyboard shows up. I have to turn off the keyboard, tap the screen, and then turn the keyboard back on. I have tried using the up and down arrows on the keyboard that is the normal double tap, but it must not work in password edit fields. Anyone have any clues about this situation, or how you enter a password field using the apple keyboard without having to tap the iPhone screen? Thanks.

RE: Netatmo weather station
Hi Marie, Just to answer your question about the indoor and outdoor module, no setup is necessary, they are pre-paired and as soon as you put the batteries in the outdoor module and the indoor module is plugged in they will talk to each other automatically. The indoor module also takes some batteries, but they are only meant to be for backup in case the power goes away or there is a power fluctuation. The unit comes with a normal I think it's a micro USB cable and it also comes with a USB wall adapter like you get with many devices nowadays. Just plug the USB wall adapter in an outlet, plug the USB cable into it and the micro USB plug on the cable into the indoor module and you are done. I'll also check how the batteries go in, they are Triple A and come with the weather station, and I'll let you know.

RE: VizWiz?
Hi Scott, Did you make sure you had Web Workers enabled and not just IQ Engine? Also, did you make sure you really had a good picture of the label? I took a picture of a can of Varathane once and asked What kind of Varathane is this since I wasn't sure if it was for interior or exterior use and if it was a Matte, Gloss or Semi-Gloss finish. The answer came back Interior Varathane, can't read the rest, give the can a quarter turn clockwise. I did so and send another picture with the same question and then got a perfect answer.

I knew I had a 50/50 outcome possible since the button was a 3 position button. Middle being off, and left being AC and right being heater. However I didn't know that at the time. I used Vizwiz to ask the question, which setting is for the air conditioner. Left or right. The first time I got the response that I was too far from the thermostat. So I took a closer picture, and eventually I got 5 responses. However all of them were dead wrong. The responses ranged from white, to 71, to thermostat. None of which actually answered my question. So I gave it up as a bad job and flipped the switch to the left, since on mine at home, left is AC, and sure enough, I gambled right. -- Raul A.

RE: What's going on with the app Store?
Hi Neil, When you say that no keyboard shows up, do you mean you don't have the virtual keyboard on the screen when your Apple Wireless Keyboard is connected? The virtual keyboard is hidden by default if your Apple keyboard is connected, but you can unhide it by pressing the very right button in the top row on the keyboard. I guess Apple assumes you don't want the virtual keyboard to take up space on the screen if you use a Bluetooth keyboard so they hide it automatically. If you are in an edit field, your Bluetooth keyboard is connected and you don't have the virtual keyboard, but want to use it, press that top right button and Voiceover will say Keyboard visible, press it again and Voiceover will say Keyboard hidden.

Updating from my iPad
I want to do a lot of updates on my daughter's iPad from within the App Store. How can I do this? When I go to Updates, all I see is Updates--no way to update anything.

New Skype Update is in the App Store
Hi Listers, There is a new Skype update, here are the 4 things they mention in the What's New section: Beautiful New Calling Experience Mark all your recent chats as read with just a few taps General Fixes and Improvements One-to-One chats now appear in the correct order I just installed the new update and had a quick look and I don't see any major issues. The DialPad is still working fine and if you are in the Recent tab there is now a new button at the top right called Tick. If you double tap it you are asked if you want to mark all recent chats as read and you can also choose Yes, don't ask again which means the next time you double tap on the Tick button it will just go ahead and mark all recent chats as read. When you are on a call it appears the bottom row of buttons has been rearranged a bit. The End Call button now seems to be by itself just above the Home Key which is nice because it's very easy to find it. Right above it are now the Speaker, Mute, DialPad and Show Options buttons. If you want to switch to speakerphone just double tap on Speaker it will then say that it is selected and you can now actually flick left and get to Earpiece and Speakerphone, double tap on Speakerphone and the call will switch to speakerphone. I think in previous versions you had to find these buttons by sliding your finger around after tapping on the button. I think it's safe to upgrade in any case, but if you want extra insurance you can always make a copy of the current Skype app in your Mobile Apps folder in iTunes Media and that way you could get back to the previous version.

Re: ITunes Questions
It's just as easy with iTunes 11 once you enable the sidebar and you set the radio button to either songs or artists. Just my £0.02 worth.

Marco the rocket On 2013-03-06, at 22:04, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote: Hi Tom, Control+S is the command to “Show Sidebar”, you can also go to the View menu with Alt+V and arrow down to where it says Show Sidebar, then press enter. If you go to the View menu and it says “Hide Sidebar” then you already have the sidebar visible and if you do a Control+S it will hide it, the shortcut key is a toggle. It is easiest to use F6 to find the sidebar, once youa re on it, Jaws will say “Sources Tree View”. I actually prefer now not to show the sidebar. If I want to change from the music library to the books library or the apps library I either use the shortcuts, Control+1 for music, Control+2 for movies, Control+3 for TV Shows, Control+6 for Books and Control+7 for Apps. Control+4 and Control+5 don’t do anything in my setup and if you, for example, uncheck Movies in the Preferences, Control+2 will not do anything. Another way to navigate to those areas is to use Control+Shift+F to jump into the “Search Library” edit field, then tab twice and you are on Music if your music library is what has focus. Press enter or space and a treeview opens where you can now arrow down to movies, Books, Apps etc. I never thought of iTunes as all that bad and I like iTunes 11 even better since it seems to be somewhat faster and more efficient. However, I believe Jaws 14 definitely will give you the best performance and, if you haven’t done so already, I highly recommend you listen to the December and January FS Casts Jonathan did. His 2-part series on iTunes 11 with Jaws 14 definitely helps in understanding iTunes and how to make the best of it. You can find the podcasts on the Freedom Scientific website under FS Casts. As for your girl-friends iPhone not showing up, I can’t explain it, if I enable the sidebar and connect my iPhone it shows up under Devices as it always has. If I hide the sidebar which, as I said before, I prefer, I find the “iPhone” button as follows: I press Control+Shift+F to go to the Search Library edit field. I press F6 once to jump to the first drop-down list of the column browser which is Genre. Of course that assumes you have the column browser enabled. I then Shift+Tab twice and I’m on the “iPhone” button, enter or space will activate it. I then have all the usual buttons like Summary, Info, Apps, Tones etc. which I can check to manage the various sync aspects of iTunes with my iPhone. The column browser, by the way, can only be enabled if you check the “Songs” button, it is greyed out if artists, albums or genres are selected.

On my girlfriend's machine running Windows 7, however, even though her iPhone 4 is connected and it syncs, the phone is not visible in the sources tree view. Why is that and how can we fix the problem. Both of our iPhone 4's are running IOS 6.1.2. There are other issues regarding her ITunes library, but I won't get into those right now. Thanks in advance.

Re: What are the pros and cons of using Fleksy?
Hello all yes I love Fleksy a lot and use it for both short and long messages. A tip: you can send e-mail directly via Fleksy by going into the menu and by choosing e-mail. Also if you have e-mail addresses in your favourites you can double tap on a send to menu item and it's just a case of double tapping on send. Another tip type the subject followed by a new line followed by your message. This tells Fleksy the first line is the subject of the e-mail and to treat the rest as the body. Happy typing! Chris. Christopher Hallsworth On 07/03/2013 03:03, Raul A. Gallegos wrote: Hello there. In addition to what Richard and Chuck have already said, this app was featured in a CNN article listing some of the 20 most best apps of late. This tells me that the app is getting some notice by a lot of sighted people as well. One thing which is really good about the app is that as long as you have an idea of where the letters are, you do not need to be 100% accurate. This reminds me of the predictive texting that many nonsmart phones like some from Nokia phones have. Some people would have said the price was a con because it was rather high. However the app is now free so that should not be an issue. In my specific case, it has not increased my typing by 50% like it has with other people. This is because I already typed rather fast on the iPhone due to the tactile dots from the screen protector I have on it. However it has helped increase my typing a little. If I am going to write a rather long email such as this one, I will probably use Fleksy or I will dictate. I f I am going to write a short email or just send texts, I will usually not use it because of how fast I already type. It would not be more efficient using the app and then copying the text and then pasting it into an email. So, in my case I use it some of the time but not all of the time. I know this does not directly answer your question on the good and bad of this app. However I am hoping that may be based on my experience with it, along with the experience of other list members, it will help you make a better informed choice as to whether this is something that you would benefit from.

Re: Utility of iPad
No and no, the Mini don't do anything the iPhone can't do, and for sure the Mini can't do stuff a Mac can do. But I and a few of us still have a Mini and like it for what it does do. The Mini does somethings different since it has the bigger screen, but you can still do it in your favourite armchair rather than compelled to do it at a desk. As ever, it's whether you feel the spending is justified in the extra you get from the new device.

How do I change my ID and password in iTunes
Hi, I have the latest version of iTunes, but it is the one I use to use with my iTouch and I don't want anything on the iTouch on the new iPhone. When I run iTunes, it asks me to enter my ID and password. When I got my iPhone, I set up a different email and password, but I try to enter it and it says it is the wrong one. I don't see any way to change my account settings. iTunes has always given me a bit of trouble, so perhaps I am overlooking something obvious. But, perhaps some wise person will be able to tell me how to log into iTunes with my new credentials? Thanks much.

Prizmo with StandScan Pro
Hello everyone, My StandScan Pro arrived today and I'm really impressed!

Cheers, Anne The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Living quished (because m p pie then returned to a 'balanced,,_ -~ relin. diet), along with many of its associated metabolic benefits '~ainterla% Parallel in time to the popularity of VLCDs, Dr. Robert Atkins promoted a less energy-restricted approach to a ketogenic diet. His focus Was on keeping carbohydrate intake low enough to induce ketosis, but not to severely limit (or even count) calories. To achieve this, he advised individu. als to eat protein and fat to satiety while keeping dietary carbohydrates low enough to maintain positive urine ketones. It was his view that this diet, including vegetables, limited fruit, and vitamin supplements, could be followed by the individual outpatient without close medical SUpervi. sion unless there was a pre-existing complicating condition like diabetes or hypertension. For most patients, however, the Atkins diet tended to be only a temporary sojourn into nutritional ketosis, whether for want of sweets or want of approbation from their friends and doctor. n , owever, in these parallel few decades of the VLCD and Atldns diet, hundreds of studies were done, and we learned a great deal about carbohydrate restriction. Among these lessons are many which can contribute to the safe and sustainable use of carbohydrate restricted diets going forward. Counting Calories vs Carbs It was Dr. Atkins' contention that when most carbohydrate was removed from the diet, heavy people lose weight more effectively than by classic balanced calorie restriction. The mechanism was (and remains) hotly debated. Claims of reduced metabolic efficiency during nutritional ketosis remain unproven. Among other points against this is the fact that Steve Phinney's bike racers produced the same power output in testing 0~ a stationary bike using the same oxygen consumption after adapting to the Inuit diet compared to their test on a high carb diet[23], leaving little room for metabolic inefficiency in this group of subjects.

After a week of eating a balanced diet to satiety, the subjects were given a low carbohydrate diet consisting of most of the same foods, with the exception that they were asked to limit their total daily carbohydrate intake to 20 grams. Over the next two weeks, their spontaneous nutrient intakes were carefully measured. Interestingly, the subject's average daily energy intake dropped from 3100 to 2100 Calories, and this was all due to the 'missing' carbs. Despite having the choice to eat more, the protein and fat intakes of these subjects remained relatively constant. And despite this 1000 Calorie per day deficit, their reported hunger, satisfaction, and energy levels did not change appreciably. What did change was their diabetes control - dramatically for the better. For more on this topic, see Chapter 15. But this study was just 2 weeks long. What happens in the longer term? Well, the process of full metabolic adaptation to a low carbohydrate diet takes up to 6 weeks, so for the first few months, we would expect wellbeing and function to get better.

Re: What's going on with the app Store?
I have had this happen many different times for quite a long time now. Normally taking the app store out of the app switcher and reopening it normally brings back the update screen showing what it should. From what you all say, that is not exactly what fixes it though. It has happened on different devices, different versions of IOS, different times and maybe other differences from one time to another. What I wonder is if sighted users get the blank update screen as well. Actually I think they probably do becaue it appears when this happens that the screen is actually visually just as blank as voiceover reports. Yes the tabs are still there just as it reports and some stuff at the top of the screen in the same manner. Luckily I don't think this is our issue exclusively. On 3/7/13, Raul A.

Re: What are the pros and cons of using Fleksy?

I knew I had a 50/50 outcome possible since the button was a 3 position button. Middle being off, and left being AC and right being heater. However I didn't know that at the time. I used Vizwiz to ask the question, which setting is for the air conditioner. Left or right. The first time I got the response that I was too far from the thermostat. So I took a closer picture, and eventually I got 5 responses. However all of them were dead wrong. The responses ranged from white, to 71, to thermostat. None of which actually answered my question.

One thing which is really good about the app is that as long as you have an idea of where the letters are, you do not need to be 100% accurate. This reminds me of the predictive texting that many nonsmart phones like some from Nokia phones have. Some people would have said the price was a con because it was rather high. However the app is now free so that should not be an issue. In my specific case, it has not increased my typing by 50% like it has with other people. This is because I already typed rather fast on the iPhone due to the tactile dots from the screen protector I have on it. However it has helped increase my typing a little. If I am going to write a rather long email such as this one, I will probably use Fleksy or I will dictate. I f I am going to write a short email or just send texts, I will usually not use it because of how fast I already type. It would not be more efficient using the app and then copying the text and then pasting it into an email. So, in my case I use it some of the time but not all of the time. I know this does not directly answer your question on the good and bad of this app. However I am hoping that may be based on my experience with it, along with the experience of other list members, it will help you make a better informed choice as to whether this is something that you would benefit from.

Re: ITunes Questions
I just hate how apple doesn't allow for the rolling back of an update if one discovers that the new update is not working for them. This is one of my reasons for holding off on itunes 11. Having used itunes 10.6 on a xp machine i can honestly say that the itunes 10 running on a 64 bit windows 7 computer is super fast and i don't think that the new itunes will be any faster and besides, how much easier then having itunes launching in about 10 seconds and it opening up right in the list view. It sounds like itunes 11 has a lot more keystrokes to do before one can get to doing work.

The old and familiar is always what some people prefer even if the new is better and there is no doubt that iTunes 11 is faster and now that I have gotten used to it and figured out all the shortcuts, I actually like how Apple has redesigned it. I should, however, say that in the very latest iTunes 11 update a few bugs have crept in, one of them being the one about not being able to sync selected audio books. I mostly listen to my Audio Books with Audible, but for some this could be a big issue and hopefully it is something either Apple or Freedom Scientific will fix. It would be interesting to see if somebody who uses Window Eyes experiences the same problem and I will maybe try it tonight with System Access to Go.

If you go to the View menu and it says “Hide Sidebar” then you already have the sidebar visible and if you do a Control+S it will hide it, the shortcut key is a toggle. It is easiest to use F6 to find the sidebar, once youa re on it, Jaws will say “Sources Tree View”. I actually prefer now not to show the sidebar. If I want to change from the music library to the books library or the apps library I either use the shortcuts, Control+1 for music, Control+2 for movies, Control+3 for TV Shows, Control+6 for Books and Control+7 for Apps. Control+4 and Control+5 don’t do anything in my setup and if you, for example, uncheck Movies in the Preferences, Control+2 will not do anything. Another way to navigate to those areas is to use Control+Shift+F to jump into the “Search Library” edit field, then tab twice and you are on Music if your music library is what has focus. Press enter or space and a treeview opens where you can now arrow down to movies, Books, Apps etc. I never thought of iTunes as all that bad and I like iTunes 11 even better since it seems to be somewhat faster and more efficient. However, I believe Jaws 14 definitely will give you the best performance and, if you haven’t done so already, I highly recommend you listen to the December and January FS Casts Jonathan did. His 2-part series on iTunes 11 with Jaws 14 definitely helps in understanding iTunes and how to make the best of it. You can find the podcasts on the Freedom Scientific website under FS Casts. As for your girl-friends iPhone not showing up, I can’t explain it, if I enable the sidebar and connect my iPhone it shows up under Devices as it always has. If I hide the sidebar which, as I said before, I prefer, I find the “iPhone” button as follows: I press Control+Shift+F to go to the Search Library edit field. I press F6 once to jump to the first drop-down list of the column browser which is Genre. Of course that assumes you have the column browser enabled. I then Shift+Tab twice and I’m on the “iPhone” button, enter or space will activate it. I then have all the usual buttons like Summary, Info, Apps, Tones etc. which I can check to manage the various sync aspects of iTunes with my iPhone. The column browser, by the way, can only be enabled if you check the “Songs” button, it is greyed out if artists, albums or genres are selected.

Yes, it's fabulous for entering dictionary words, but I found it difficult to enter anything beyond that. For example, websites, Email addresses, ellipses, names of brands that rely on typing dictionary words with initial capitals, emoticons, acronyms, and so forth proved rather tricky to enter--sometimes you can add words to the custom dictionary but more often than not you'll have to use the QWERTY and symbol keyboards, both of which I find buggy, and the latter I find incomplete.

Hi guys. I'm asking this again because I hadn't gotten an answer before. How do I go on to the next chapter of the game?

Hi, I figured it out. It is quite simple really if you know what you are doing. iTunes, for me, has always been a bloated piece of software I would rather not use.

Re: Converting M4A files?
I assume you see Switch in the File pull down for other file formats? It could be that the free version of Switch only supports the M4A file format on the Mac. Don't take my word for that.

Considering shrinking our data plan big time!
Hi all, I need some data plan advice. Currently, we have 2 lines with VZW, mine is still unlimited data, the other line has just been downgraded to 2gb data, because of an upgrade. Well, to save some money, I'm considering revamping our plan, into one of those share everything plans. The share 1gb of data, unlimited talk/text. I did the account analysis over the last 6 Months, and if it is accurate, we seldom use 20mb of data each Month. January, for some reason, each line used 21mb of data. With this information, sharing 1gb shouldn't be a hardship. Any thoughts here? Am I crazy to give up my unlimited data? How about those of you that use your iPhone as gps? I'm guessing that takes up a lot of data. Lastly, doesn't VZW make it pretty easy to change our plan later on? Say if we decide to go up to the 2gb plan. Don't worry, I know I won't get the unlimited data back. :) Thanks for any guidance. If I am figuring this out correctly, it could be a $25 savings each Month.

Re: Considering shrinking our data plan big time!
My understanding is that once you get in to those shared data plans, you can't get out. I could very well be wrong but the folks I've asked about it from both VZ ATT have told me that once you're in, you're in. I think the overall question I'd ask myself is this. Is the money I'd save really be worth giving up my unlimited data? If you were to happen to go over at some point, you'd really pay. So, to me it'd be worth just hanging on to the unlimited data if the cost difference was 20-30 bucks a month just to A, insure that I didn't go over B. just to be able to have it if I wanted it or needed it on a trip, your main internet connection out, etc. Now then, if the cost savings were more than 30 bucks a month or money was really becoming an issue. I perhaps would consider moving towards the shared plan. - Original Message - From: Traci To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2013 17:33 Subject: Considering shrinking our data plan big time!

One thing which is really good about the app is that as long as you have an idea of where the letters are, you do not need to be 100% accurate. This reminds me of the predictive texting that many nonsmart phones like some from Nokia phones have. Some people would have said the price was a con because it was rather high. However the app is now free so that should not be an issue. In my specific case, it has not increased my typing by 50% like it has with other people. This is because I already typed rather fast on the iPhone due to the tactile dots from the screen protector I have on it. However it has helped increase my typing a little. If I am going to write a rather long email such as this one, I will probably use Fleksy or I will dictate. I f I am going to write a short email or just send texts, I will usually not use it because of how fast I already type. It would not be more efficient using the app and then copying the text and then pasting it into an email. So, in my case I use it some of the time but not all of the time. I know this does not directly answer your question on the good and bad of this app. However I am hoping that may be based on my experience with it, along with the experience of other list members, it will help you make a better informed choice as to whether this is something that you would benefit from.

This reminds me of the predictive texting that many nonsmart phones like some from Nokia phones have. Some people would have said the price was a con because it was rather high. However the app is now free so that should not be an issue. In my specific case, it has not increased my typing by 50% like it has with other people. This is because I already typed rather fast on the iPhone due to the tactile dots from the screen protector I have on it. However it has helped increase my typing a little. If I am going to write a rather long email such as this one, I will probably use Fleksy or I will dictate. I f I am going to write a short email or just send texts, I will usually not use it because of how fast I already type. It would not be more efficient using the app and then copying the text and then pasting it into an email. So, in my case I use it some of the time but not all of the time. I know this does not directly answer your question on the good and bad of this app. However I am hoping that may be based on my experience with it, along with the experience of other list members, it will help you make a better informed choice as to whether this is something that you would benefit from.

Re: Editing Google Docs on the iPad
I have no idea what the best way to do it is, but the Google Drive app doesn't seem to be accessible when it comes to editing Google Docs. The NoteMaster app will let you edit documents in Google Docs directly. This may be a option worth checking out. There's a Lite version of NoteMaster, so you can check it out first.

Re: What are the pros and cons of using Fleksy?
I agree. On the native keyboard, I frequently can enter several common entries (i.e. my passcode) without even waiting to hear confirmation that I touched the right spot. In most cases, my finger lands on the correct letter or very close to it. Grant On 2013-03-07, at 2:51 PM, Maria Joe Chapman bubbygirl1...@gmail.com wrote: HI. I was just curious.

A tip: you can send e-mail directly via Fleksy by going into the menu and by choosing e-mail. Also if you have e-mail addresses in your favourites you can double tap on a send to menu item and it's just a case of double tapping on send. Another tip type the subject followed by a new line followed by your message. This tells Fleksy the first line is the subject of the e-mail and to treat the rest as the body. Happy typing! Chris.

Re: VizWiz?
Viz Wiz has consistently worked for me to solve complicated visual problems. Example I wanted to hook up stereo speakers and needed to know which jacks on my receiver were red positive or black negative. I took the picture of the back of the receiver and asked the question are the red connectors on the top or bottom. In about 30 seconds I got my answer that the red ones were on top. Ive had success with many similar very specific questions. I like Tap Tap See, but seldom do I just need to know what is in the picture. Usually I need something more specific and Viz Wiz does that reliably for me.

Hi, in my recent stay in Austin I was in a hotel and needed to find out which button setting would put the thermostat to the air conditioning. I knew I had a 50/50 outcome possible since the button was a 3 position button. Middle being off, and left being AC and right being heater. However I didn't know that at the time. I used Vizwiz to ask the question, which setting is for the air conditioner. Left or right. The first time I got the response that I was too far from the thermostat. So I took a closer picture, and eventually I got 5 responses. However all of them were dead wrong. The responses ranged from white, to 71, to thermostat. None of which actually answered my question. So I gave it up as a bad job and flipped the switch to the left, since on mine at home, left is AC, and sure enough, I gambled right. -- Raul A.

good budgeting app
Hello list: OK, this topic was recently discussed on list and I actually saved the messages from the discussion. Now, I cannot find said messages :). I could use a recommendation or two or three :) for a budgeting app. I believe pocket budget was recommended at one time and there was a second one whose name (or any reasonable guess at a name) alludes me. Hopefully I will be forgiven for bringing up a topic just brought up a while ago. I appreciate any thoughts. Take good care and I wish you enough.

Be that as it may, I realize that I have to put up with it, so, toward that end, I have some questions. My girlfriend and I both have ITunes version 11.something-or-other on our computers and we can't seem to get to the sources tree view consistently and easily. Is there a keyboard command that will consistently make it visible and bring focus to it? Second, on my Windows XP machine, I can see my iPhone 4 listed in the sources tree view when it's connected. On my girlfriend's machine running Windows 7, however, even though her iPhone 4 is connected and it syncs, the phone is not visible in the sources tree view. Why is that and how can we fix the problem. Both of our iPhone 4's are running IOS 6.1.2. There are other issues regarding her ITunes library, but I won't get into those right now. Thanks in advance.
