Re: too many apps in a folder?
I would rather have the ability to create the folders within itunes and sync those with the phone.

Speaking of which, I wonder if anyone has approached Apple about giving us the ability to create folders within folders. I mean, I have like seven or eight game folders, and I would love to place my accessible games in one folder so I don't have to go hunting for them, and being able to create folders within folders would boost this ability greatly. I'm just wondering if anyone has heard of spoken of this before.

Re: good budgeting app
Hi Patrick, I use HomeBudget. I find it fully useable although some buttons arn't correctly labelled, or have extraneous text on the end of the label. There is a lite version you can try to see if you like it and if it meets your needs. Once you get the app, go in to settings and change the view to menu. This will make the app more accessible. One feature I can't live without, is the ability to sync your budget with others, so you don't have to be the only one doing all the entry. It's worth downloading the user guide from www.anisu.com ,hope this helps, Brett.

Re: I got my iphone 5, can i use i cloud to sync py apps?
Without a computer, what I would do is perform a full backup under settings, ICloud, storage and backup on the old iPhone. Then when you are going through the setup assistant on your new iPhone 5, specify that you want to restore from that backup. This will allow you to transfer the most data, but it will take a while for things to re download and a few things such as media will be missed out. If you've already gone through the setup assistant on the new iPhone, you will need to go into settings, general, reset, and choose erase all content and settings to get the setup Wizard to show up again. You'll also need to triple tap the home button to cause voiceover to show up at this stage. This will erase all the data currently stored on the iPhone 5. While a few apps allow you to sync data using iCloud, many do not. So the backup option is likely better.

Alarmed was Re: Calendar event, can I check?
Hello all Thank you for your help. I'm pleased to report the Alarmed app is just what I was after. I was able to set a super reminder to occur on the first Wednesday of every month. I love this app to bits! Don't get me wrong, the default calendar/reminder apps are good, but if you want more customization and flexibility, the Alarmed app is the way to go. It is completely free in the app store, with an in-app purchase for the extras pack should you wish to do that. I did this very thing, because I want to support the developer with the excellent work he has done to make this app 100% accessible with VoiceOver. Thank you once again, and, as the developer said, are you alarmed? Smile. Chris. Christopher Hallsworth On 06/03/2013 12:02, Chris H wrote: Hello all.

Audible app update 2.1 has arrived
Hi, the good news is there’s an update. the bad news the two glaring accessibility issues I noted personally in version 2.0 still remain that is unless I’m just stuck on stupid and am missing something. In version 2.1 I still can’t get the 2 finger gesture to activate back buttons. and I still can’t fathom for the life of me why it is that the time elapsed indicator allows you to change its value by swiping or flicking upward and yet it returns to its original position when playback of a book resumes. Here’s hoping in future such functionality will be restored. Robin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Is there an accessible TV remote app for the iPhone
I've been wanting such a thing for the two years I've had an iPhone, and so far the only thing that comes close, and it's not even really a true remote control in the sense of transmitting an infrared data burst, if that's what you're looking for, is the Verizon app suite for the FiOS set-top box. While it does accessibly practically everything the FiOS handheld remote does, including programming the DVR, browsing the EPG, etc., it requires you be on the same Wi-Fi network as the set-top box you are attempting to control.

Re: Considering shrinking our data plan big time!
My contract ended with Verizon yesterday. I still have unlimited data, 450 talk, and 200 MSGS per month for $81 and some change. I don't use much data, but I just can't wrap my mind around going to a shared plan. The only way I can keep my unlimited data is to buy an iPhone at full price, and that's what I'll probably do. I don't need unlimited talk and text, so why should I join a shared data plan which takes away my unlimited? It may sound foolish to pay full price for a phone, but while I was trying to decide what to do, I got service on a 5 through Sprint with unlimited data. Sprint's data network is terrible in my opinion, and I got out of that contract post haste! I live in a major Metro, and VZW is so far ahead of Sprint it's not even funny. I'm glad I held on to my unlimited data through VZW. I'll have to pay a lot to keep it, but to me, it's worth it. Kyhle -Original Message- From: RobH!

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 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: VizWiz?
Hello all. Yes, Web Workers were enabled on my device, but that's a good question. (smiles). As for the developers, I've contacted them a couple of times, once after my article was published in 2011 about their app. I have contacted the m previously about this particular issue, and they said they were aware of it. However, I'm not sure there is much they can do. This stuff is done on a voluntary basis, right? If so, as the old saying goes, beggars can't be choosers. I'll give the app another try when I have a complicated visual delemma that can be solved through things like this and see what happens. One of the features I contacted the developers about was the ability to type my question instead of having to record an audio file. They said they were going to include that in the next release, but some complication or other must have gotten in the way of that, as this was 16 months ago. Take care, Scott On 3/8/13, Cara Quinn caraqu...@caraquinn.com wrote: Actually though, with Raul's experience, one answer was 71, which could have been the temperature the thermostat was set to.

Re: ipod battery
To recalibrate your LI battery, let it run all the way down and then charge it back up fully. You may need to do this two or three times. Note that this doesn't change the batteries capacity at all but just makes sure the meter is accurate. How old is your phone? A LI battery will lose about 10% of it's capacity each year. Note that 10% is a minimum.

RE: Push notification for Gmail in native iOS mail app
I kind of had the idea that Exchange may have been done away with since all the board posts and blog entries were at least six months old and often older. Still, what a bummer. I actually like the native iPhone mail app and would prefer to have all my accounts in one spot. I may just consider paying for the Google apps service if that's the case. Can anyone comment on whether paying for exchange does in fact address this issue and how accessible the process is? I downloaded the native Gmail app last night and it is certainly a different layout. Accessible, but just different. Not as clean or straight away as the native mail app. Can anyone speak as to the current accessibility of Push4.0 or ultimate notifier? I saw a review of Push 4.0 on Apple Vis, but that was from a few months ago.

It'll work for paid Google Apps users, and it'll continue to work for all existing devices that are set up to use it. But if you haven't used it on your phone before then unfortunately you're out of luck and you'll have to set up IMAP, which does not include push. There are several third party apps such as Ultimate Notifier and Push 4.0 and the native Gmail app that can push mail to you.

Re: Considering shrinking our data plan big time!
Hi All, Is Verizon the only company where you can buy your cell phone outright and have unlimited data? What if you want to use your phone as a hot spot, will you be able to add this to your plan as needed? This may seem like a strange question but if you have an ipad with a data service that is with att is there any way to switch it short of getting a new ipad? the service is not a contract service but is merely one that you can enable at will. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone On Mar 8, 2013, at 8:14 AM, Kyle Seitz wolfpac...@live.com wrote: My contract ended with Verizon yesterday. I still have unlimited data, 450 talk, and 200 MSGS per month for $81 and some change. I don't use much data, but I just can't wrap my mind around going to a shared plan. The only way I can keep my unlimited data is to buy an iPhone at full price, and that's what I'll probably do. I don't need unlimited talk and text, so why should I join a shared data plan which takes away my unlimited? It may sound foolish to pay full price for a phone, but while I was trying to decide what to do, I got service on a 5 through Sprint with unlimited data. Sprint's data network is terrible in my opinion, and I got out of that contract post haste! I live in a major Metro, and VZW is so far ahead of Sprint it's not even funny. I'm glad I held on to my unlimited data through VZW. I'll have to pay a lot to keep it, but to me, it's worth it. Kyhle -Original Message- From: RobH!

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.

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.

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.

RE: New Skype Update is in the App Store
Looks like I got lucky and got the updated version this morning, March 8, but, I have not opened it up yet, just read the blurb from iTunes. From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2013 10:13 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: 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: too many apps in a folder?
I have to agree, I spent an hour creating folders a couple of weeks ago and found I had so many blank spaces on every screen that I wanted to move everything around but by then I was tired and everything I tried seemed to make another mess, Eventually I just reset the aps back to alphabetical order and forgot the folder, just moving Newsstand to page 6 where it won't be in my way and putting stocks in the utilities folder and gave up. I'd love to have been able to do this on the computer where I had a keyboard to work with. Maybe I will get my folders and fill in the blank spaces to shrink my 5 pages to 3 but right now isn't the time I am going to attempt it again. Moving one app around is one thing, trying to create games, navigation, and so forth and then get everything on maybe two to three screens is time-consuming and I don't have the time. I know I could do it better on the computer, if only iTunes would allow me to access the process. I still like the feel of a real keyboard under my fingers, I can use the onscreen stuff and often do but I am most comfortable with a keyboard. Probably always will be.

RE: Audible app update 2.1 has arrived
Hi Robin, Yes, I agree, as far as I am concerned I see absolutely no improvements with this Audible update except that they added an 8 minute sleep timer. I really would like them to upgrade their sleep timer so you can set the time simply as a custom time and also that there is a subtle warning 10 or 20 seconds before the timer runs out and an easy way to reset it if you are stil l awak and hear the warning. The sleep timer app iTired does this beautifully, but unfortunately you can't use it with third-party apps, only the native music app. Another big thing I would like to see fixed is the fact that there is no indication in the Chapters and Bookmarks area which chapter is currently playing. If Voiceover said Now Playinbg or Selected or whatever when you come across the chapter that is playing at the time it would make it much easier to find your chapter and either double tap on the one before or the one after. I will write to Audible again with these suggestions and hope as many as possible join me in this.

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.

Re: How do I unlink my iTouch with iTunes so those apps won't get transferred to my phone
Hi there. One approach could be to reset and erase all content from the iPod touch. That of course is kind of it extreme especially if there are certain apps that you want to keep. One thing to keep in mind is that if you use iTunes to sync, you can connect the iPod touch and under the apps section of the device tell it to not install newly acquired apps from your Apple ID. This second approach is how I do this with my children's iPhones. My phone will install all newly acquired apps whether it is by me or by my children. However there is are set up so only the apps they install are on their phone. This way we are all able to use the same Apple ID, and I can keep track of which apps they are purchasing.

Re: Is there a note taking app that allows dictation and drop box transfers
Hi there. No doubt you might get several suggestions for this because there are several apps which will do this and do this well. My personal favorite is plain text. The free version has ads, but the paid version does not. It is a very easy to use app which also has drop box and iTunes filesharing support. I highly recommend this one especially if you are looking for a simple notes style app which doesn't Have a lot of extra bells and whistles which you may not want considering that you may only want note taking capabilities.

Re: VizWiz?
Hello Scott and others. I agree that it would be a wonderful addition to the feature set if you are able to type out your question rather than record it. Sometimes people can phrase a question differently this way. Also, there is no guarantee that the web worker listening to your recorded question is a native speaker in whichever language you speak. So if you write it down, even if they have to use a translation software, it might get your question better answer. In my particular case, they did give me answers that were related to the picture of the thermostat, but it is like they did not listen to my actual question in trying to find out which setting was for the heater or the air conditioner. On a funny note, had they mentioned chicken or some other food item, it would have given me an idea of what to order for dinner. :-) On Mar 8, 2013, at 8:28 AM, Scott Davert scottslistm...@gmail.com wrote: Hello all. Yes, Web Workers were enabled on my device, but that's a good question. (smiles). As for the developers, I've contacted them a couple of times, once after my article was published in 2011 about their app. I have contacted the m previously about this particular issue, and they said they were aware of it. However, I'm not sure there is much they can do. This stuff is done on a voluntary basis, right? If so, as the old saying goes, beggars can't be choosers. I'll give the app another try when I have a complicated visual delemma that can be solved through things like this and see what happens. One of the features I contacted the developers about was the ability to type my question instead of having to record an audio file. They said they were going to include that in the next release, but some complication or other must have gotten in the way of that, as this was 16 months ago.

Re: Audible app update 2.1 has arrived
Hi, I am in total agreement with you about the chapter indication and have mentioned that throughout my dialogs with them both by phone and email. that glaring admission drives me mad. I can’t imagine these changes would be difficult to implement though admittedly I’m not a code writer. It’d be one thing if we never had such functionality such as fast-forward and back buttons that respond to gestures and the like before but to have had them and then lost them in the cases of some of these features is maddening and I said as much to them. Supposedly according to the response I got today such accessibility concerns will be addressed in version 2.1 as for whether that is in fact true or not time will tell I suppose. Oh me of little faith (smile). and my apologies if I earlier erroneously referred to the current update by the wrong version number it is in fact version 2.01 which was released. Thank you for joining me in contacting them about these feature requests the more the merrier I say and I, like you hope others will do likewise. Robin From: Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Friday, March 08, 2013 2:13 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Audible app update 2.1 has arrived Hi Robin, Yes, I agree, as far as I am concerned I see absolutely no improvements with this Audible update except that they added an 8 minute sleep timer. I really would like them to upgrade their sleep timer so you can set the time simply as a custom time and also that there is a subtle warning 10 or 20 seconds before the timer runs out and an easy way to reset it if you are stil l awak and hear the warning. The sleep timer app “iTired” does this beautifully, but unfortunately you can’t use it with third-party apps, only the native music app. Another big thing I would like to see fixed is the fact that there is no indication in the Chapters and Bookmarks area which chapter is currently playing. If Voiceover said “Now Playinbg” or “Selected” or whatever when you come across the chapter that is playing at the time it would make it much easier to find your chapter and either double tap on the one before or the one after. I will write to Audible again with these suggestions and hope as many as possible join me in this.

In version 2.1 I still can’t get the 2 finger gesture to activate back buttons. and I still can’t fathom for the life of me why it is that the time elapsed indicator allows you to change its value by swiping or flicking upward and yet it returns to its original position when playback of a book resumes.

As for the developers, I've contacted them a couple of times, once after my article was published in 2011 about their app. I have contacted the m previously about this particular issue, and they said they were aware of it. However, I'm not sure there is much they can do. This stuff is done on a voluntary basis, right? If so, as the old saying goes, beggars can't be choosers. I'll give the app another try when I have a complicated visual delemma that can be solved through things like this and see what happens. One of the features I contacted the developers about was the ability to type my question instead of having to record an audio file.

Hello List, I have had similar occurances in obtaining the correct answer to a particular question. I used to use VizWiz all the time, but now I have other options. The issue I have been having recently is that it takes a tremendous amount of time to get a response from a web worker. I try to send a request when it would not be so busy, but it really doesn't matter what time of the day I use the app. It's ashame because when you don't have sighted assistance, it's nice to have a backup.

I agree that it would be a wonderful addition to the feature set if you are able to type out your question rather than record it. Sometimes people can phrase a question differently this way. Also, there is no guarantee that the web worker listening to your recorded question is a native speaker in whichever language you speak. So if you write it down, even if they have to use a translation software, it might get your question better answer. In my particular case, they did give me answers that were related to the picture of the thermostat, but it is like they did not listen to my actual question in trying to find out which setting was for the heater or the air conditioner. On a funny note, had they mentioned chicken or some other food item, it would have given me an idea of what to order for dinner. :-) On Mar 8, 2013, at 8:28 AM, Scott Davert scottslistm...@gmail.com wrote: Hello all.

Re: Audible app update 2.1 has arrived
It is a crude work around, but one way you can tell what chapter you are currently playing is to set a book mark, then select the book marks button in the chapters and book marks, and go to that book mark. It will tell you what chapter you are in. And another feature I wish VoiceOver could access in the new audible app, (I hope it is simply that I don't know how to access it), is a jump forward button. I know it exists, for it talks about jump forward and back in the settings, I just think VoiceOver isn't finding it.

I really would like them to upgrade their sleep timer so you can set the time simply as a custom time and also that there is a subtle warning 10 or 20 seconds before the timer runs out and an easy way to reset it if you are stil l awak and hear the warning. The sleep timer app iTired does this beautifully, but unfortunately you can't use it with third-party apps, only the native music app. Another big thing I would like to see fixed is the fact that there is no indication in the Chapters and Bookmarks area which chapter is currently playing. If Voiceover said Now Playinbg or Selected or whatever when you come across the chapter that is playing at the time it would make it much easier to find your chapter and either double tap on the one before or the one after.

Re: paring bluetooth headphones with my IPhone
Sure thing. Go to settings, Bluetooth. There you'll see a list of Bluetooth devices connected to your iPhone if any are there. Now power on your new Bluetooth ear phones. After a few seconds, they should show in that list. Your iPhone will tell you if your new phones are connected or not. In this case, they probably won't be connected. Now double tap on the name of your now phones and iPhone will tell you when they are connected. Then close the Bluetooth menu and exit settings. You should not have to pare them again. All you need to do from now on will be to turn your phones on. They will connect automatically. If not, you may have to repeat the above steps.

Re: Prizmo with StandScan Pro
Bonjour Anne, I see you got the StandScan pro! I have it too and think it very good. I would just like to add one comment to your findings: it would appear, from your two nearly excellent scans, that there is little to choose between the 9 volt and 12 volt options, however, this is only true when there is reasonable ambient lighting. Something I have been looking for, and think to have found with the StandScan Pro, is a way of making sure that: 1. The phone is always in the perfect position and 2. that the lighting within the box is perfect regardless of other conditions. I have found that 12 volts of power is necessary to obtain perfect/near perfect results even in complete darkness! When the ambient light is good enough, one doesn't even need to use the LED lights included in the StandScan box, but, especially, for those of us who have no light perception, and are unable to avoid creating shadows etc, the StandScan plus 12 volts of light, is capable of fulfilling these 2 requirements. By the way, did you buy the 12 volt battery holder, by any chance? I thought I did, but it seems I didn't. If I can find it on their website, I will try and order it, because I don't always want to rely upon a mains connection. Also, for those who are interested in these more abstruse points, your scans were double page scans taken from a book, something to be aimed for, but in general, single page scans are, as in the case of a letter in the post, the most important challenge re access and independence. So, just an observation from here: the other day a friend came round, all het up, with a letter from a solicitor. My friend read it to me and wanted my reaction to it. He was distressed and kept reading me the text, all in a rush, interjecting expletives in lieu of commas! In the end I said I'll just make a copy of this and read it again when I can concentrate properly. I did this using the StandScan Pro, I got a perfect scan and was able to find the word or in a significant sentence which made all the difference! So, an example of the need to have absolutely perfect scans sometimes. I am certainly glad to have this scanning aid and would recommend it to anyone, regardless of their free-hand scanning skills. I think it will work both for those of us who have developed a facility with the various scanning apps and those who have had absolutely no success at all! But I would definitely recommend the use of 12 volts for relyable results in all situations! Onwards and upwards! Sandy.

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.

So if you write it down, even if they have to use a translation software, it might get your question better answer. In my particular case, they did give me answers that were related to the picture of the thermostat, but it is like they did not listen to my actual question in trying to find out which setting was for the heater or the air conditioner.

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.

Re: Considering shrinking our data plan big time!
The share plan is great for your cell carrier because you have a shared 1 GB etc between all your devices. If you have teenagers in that plan, they use all the data and when you need it, you find yourself buying another block of data. Even if you go over by so much as a meg, you get charged for another chunk. In my case, it's 2 GB chunks. So if I go a meg over, I automatically get charged 15 bucks for another 2 GB chunk because I'm not on a shared plan. It's the only reason they want you to go that way. That having been said, you may run into other charges as well. For example, if the second phone isn't using enough data, you get hit with a non usage charge. Granted it's only a buck or 2 but it is in that effort for your carrier to maximize profits in an already tight market. Consumer Reports had an article on this very topic last month or the month before that and it uses several kinds of situations to show how they maximize profits for your carrier but in some situations it can help save. If it were me, I'd lay hands on a back issue or two of CR and read it. It may be well worth your time and trouble to locate it. If your a Bard user it won't be hard to find it.

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: What are the pros and cons of using Fleksy?
I love Fleksy for doing a quick Tweet, a facebook status update, or writing a quick note. If I need to be more specific, I use BrailleTouch or my blueTooth keyboard. I'm learning how to use the built-in IPhone keyboard, but I type at a snails pace with that keyboard as of right now. I'm glad to have different options to accomplish tasks with my phone.

RE: Converting M4A files?
I've used Switch too with few problems. TuneConvert is another fairly useful program that will convert allot of files fairly accessibly, but it costs. If you do allot of conversion though and have allot of different sources, it makes the process a little more cost effective. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Christopher Chaltain Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2013 11:51 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Converting M4A files?

Re: Is there an OCR app for the Iphone that is accessible
Say Text is another one, but it can be a little tricky sometimes with moving your hands and stuff. There is also a one called, tiny scan pro but I am still getting used to it.

RE: Converting M4A files?
This was my original reason for posting the instructions on using iTunes for the conversion. I assumed you had to use iTunes to get the voice recorded files from the phone to the computer before they could be converted to mp3 format. Is this not the case?

RE: ITunes Questions
Hi, Tom. I feel the same as you about iTunes. The View menu contains the commands to turn the side view on and off. The keyboard shortcut toggle to do this is ctrl + the letter S. If the side bar is not shown, ctrl + s will display it and if it is shown, ctrl + s will hide it. I'm running Windows XP and notice sometimes that my iPhone also is not displayed when I connect it to the computer's USB port. When this happens, I unplug it and then reconnect it and then it usually displays in the iTunes side bar.

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.
