RE: Siri

[Neal Ewers]

Hi, Short sentences do not work either. It is the length of the message it
seems to me. I can dictate an email from the email app, but I used to be
able to do this with Siri without ever opening the email app. I wonder if
they have done away with this?

RE: Siri

[Neal Ewers]

OK, I have a theory, When I dictate email or text messages to Siri, I often
hear her say something like, "Can you ask me that in fewer words?" I wonder
if the new OS has a problem in that Siri is now confused about sending a
message versus asking her a question. One would not ask a question in long
text, so if she thinks I am asking a question when I am actually dictating
the body of an email message, she would not like that if she thought I was
simply asking a question. I wonder if the programmers blew it, or if this is
a planned change, If it is. I know I can go into the message and tap
dictate, but is much more time consuming than what I used to do when Siri
excepted longer message text.

RE: Buying A Kindle Book With The Amazon App

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Rick and others,

There is no way to buy a Kindl book via the Kindl app just as there is no
way to buy an Audible book via the Audible app. A couple of years ago Apple
has changed their policy regarding in-app purchases, if Amazon sold Kindl or
Audible books via the app, they would have to pay Apple 30% of the price and
obviously they are not going to do that.

I think it's a bit greedy of Apple to demand this, it's not like they don't
make enough money and also they do not prevent people from buying Kindl
books or Audible books by forcing them to go through the website first. But
they do make the user experience less seamless and convenient.


Regards,
Sieghard

Hello Neil, I think that we just need to speak in lines. In order to make this

go and see if she was speaking in words. We need to go to the store or stuff

Re: Put emails on folders, can i!

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, since you are using gmail, it's best if you go to 
http://mail.google.com/mail/h and log in with your gmail username and 
password. Then go to the edit labels link. Now, create labels for the 
so-called folders you want. Email programs like Outlook, Thunderbird, 
iPhone mail, and mac mail see the gmail labels like folders. You can 
then move messages into these so-called folders using which ever mail 
program you use, even on the iPhone. You can take it a step further on 
the gmail site and create filters. I have one for example which says 
that if a message comes from viphone@googlegroups.com, skip the inbox 
and apply the viphone label. That means that when messages to this list 
are sent, they are not placed in my inbox, but instead are placed in the 
so-called viphone folder. Remember I say so-called because they are 
actually labels. The real emails go into a real folder called all mail. 
However you don't need to concern yourself with reading the messages 
from that one.


I hope this helps.

Re: The 2-finger double tap gesture

[Lauren Simmons]

I discovered the same play between screen protector on otterbox and screen 
of my iPod Touch. Now having owned the otterbox for a couple of months the 
play has lessened. I believe after frequent use the plastic flexes a bit and 
makes much better contact with the iPod screen. At this point I can't feel 
any play, and if no one told me and handed me an iPhone with the otterbox, I 
would not notice that there is a protective screen cover on the Defender. In 
short, keep at it and you will find the otterbox just as sensitive as no 
cover. I currently do not, and never had to press any harder on the screen 
than without the case.

After purchasing my IPhone 5 with my first otterbox case, I found 
eventually that there is a little play between the actual screen on the 
phone and the cover on the case.  I do definitely have to tap harder.  So, 
there are always variables that one must take into account as to why 
different situations occur.  I think it is too late for me to take my case 
back to Verizon so will probably continue to deal with it.  I am certain 
that a sighted person probably would not be able to detect the slight 
difference, but since I had previously had an IPhone 4 with a different 
case, I can now tell the difference.  I did not realize it was not 
supposed to have that much play until I showed it to another blind user.

To assess sensitivity of touch screen on iDevice simply place your finger
very, very lightly on the screen. Then increasingly place more of the 
fleshy

part of your finger on the screen. Do this repeatedly. In very quick time
you will get an idea of the sensitivity and pressure necessary to activate
icons on a touch screen. You want to first almost not even touch the 
glassy

surface.

To determine the amount of movement necessary for a swipe, practice with a
similar task. Swipe your finger the very slightest bit until you get an 
idea
of the distance you have to swipe to move from one item to another. Then 
go

to the extremes. The idea being one of finding the sweet spot to move very
quickly through the icons and screen elements.

It must be an amazingly difficult task for user manual writers and such to
explain simple and complex ideas as it appears there will always be some
that just don't seem to be able to accomplish any task--this kinda thing
always seems to make me furl my eyebrows in confusion. :)

  Hi

   

  I am back trying to use the iphone 5 for a phone call without headphones. 
What am I finding is that when the phone is up to my ear I can hear the person 
speak but they can't hear me. When I take the phone away from my ear it goes to 
speakerphone and conversation can be heard and made. Bring the phone back up to 
my face and I can have it really close to my mouth but the top end of the phone 
close to my ear mutes my speech and the caller cannot hear me. A one way 
conversion with me holding the phone and not being heard. I have seen on forums 
that this has happened to others but can't find a solution. It seems to be only 
on the iphone 5. Has anyone on this list experienced this and knows how to fix 
it? I want a conversation without headphones and speakerphone. Many thanks.

Kindle Personal Document Services

[Esther]

Hello,

Another feature of the Kindle app that I haven't seen discussed here
is the Kindle Personal Document Services.  You get up to 5GB of free
personal document storage space in the cloud associated with your
account, and bookmarks and annotations can be synced across your
Kindle App on various devices.  The Kindle Personal Document Service
can deliver (and optionally convert to Kindle format) the following
types of documents, which you can email to yourself as attachments
using the unique "Send-to-Kindle Email Address" that was created for
your account, and that is listed under you Settings:
Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx)
Rich Text Format (.rtf)
HTML (.htm, .html)
Text (.txt) documents
Archived documents (zip , x-zip) and compressed archived documents
Mobi book

Adobe PDF (.pdf) can be converted to Kindle format and delivered on an
experimental basis. While we have other apps that can read and manage
many of these formats on iOS devices, this is another feature that can
be explored.  Given the favorable experience many users have reported
of reading Braille in the Kindle app, this might be a desirable
option.

If you double tap the "Settings" button at the borrom right corner of
your main Kindle app screen, you'll find a "Send-to-Kindle Email
Address" that will be some user name, usually with a number appended,
at kindle.com  Emailed attachments that are sent that address will
show up in your "Docs" Library, which is one of the libraries, along
with "Books" and "Newsstand" that you can select for your device.
However, since Amazon charges for additions to your Kindle or Kindle
app that are sent over their 3G network ($.15 per megabyte in the
U.S.), in order to make sure your documents are only synced over when
Wi-Fi is available, to avoid these charges, change the email address
listed in your Settings page to go to "free.amazon.com" instead of
"amazon.com".  For example, if the name associated with your iPhone
Kindle app is "joey_555 at amazon.com" (where I'm spelling out the
"at" in the email address, so this information is not blocked for
people reading the list from the web site), email the attached
document you want to appear in your "Docs" library as part of your
Personal Document Services to "joey_555 at free.amazon.com".  The
first part of the email address is uniquely associated with your
account and device.  If you have an iPad with the Amazon Kindle app
installed, it might have a slightly different "Send-to-Kindle Email
Address" listed under the Settings, like "joey_1756 at amazon.com".

Also, in order to prevent spam, only attachments that are emailed from
addresses that you authorize will show up in your "Docs" library.
This generally means that personal documents will only be accepted
from the email you used to register your Kindle account.  However, you
can add other valid email accounts by logging into the "Manage Your
Kindle" web page at:
http://www.amazon.com/manageyourkindle
and then activating the link for "Personal Document Settings"
(Note, if you are using a Kindle Store in another country, change the
URL prefix from "www.amazon.com" to the appropriate address, such as
"www.amazon.co.uk" for the UK, "www.amazon.ca" for Canada, etc.)

On the web page for "Personal Document Settings", navigate to the
heading for "Approved Personal Document E-mail List" to read the list
of approved email addresses.  You can use the "Add a new approved e-
mail address" link to add a different email.

Helpful tips for personal document attachments:
The file size of each attached personal document should be less than
50MB (before compression in a ZIP file)
The email submitted should not contain more than 25 attached personal
documents

You do not need to include a subject line unless you wish to do so for
your own records. The exception is if you want to "convert" your
document to Kindle format. In this case you can type
"convert" (without the quotes) as the subject for your email.  The
main reason for converting to Kindle format is to take advantage of
the ability to highlight text and add notes.  If you send a Word
document as an attachment, it will show up in your Docs library, and
your reading location and bookmarks can be synced across the Kindle
app on various devices, assuming that you download the document from
the "Cloud" onto your "device" in the other Kindle apps.  However, you
won't be able to highlight, make annotations, or use the dictionary
for these other formats.

The document appears fairly fast after your email -- within 2 minutes
of my email when I was on a connected Wi-Fi network, even when I used
the "convert" option.  From the description on the Amazon support
pages, personal documents usually show up in less than 5 minutes.
However, I don't think that table of contents organization or
navigation is supported unless you attached an eBook format, such as
Mobi (Kindle-like format).

There are other options (such as using 3G Whispersync at special
rates), and downloading separate "Send

Hi,

Curious to know if anyone has had good luck with accessibility with any iTunes

Re: Siri

[Beth G]

Siri to give me look for being too long, even with punctuation. She began 
rambling about some story regarding her grandmother and her mother and her 
daughter and how I should ask a shorter question next time. Was pretty 
hilarious. But annoying.

Dropped Wireless Network Connection when Using Lire and Earl

[Craig Werner]

Hello, everyone.

When I use Earl, the newspaper-reading app, or Lire, the RSS reading
app, I lose network connectivity quite often after about twenty to
thirty minutes of use.  The wireless switch on my iPhone 3GS is still
on, but the status bar tells me "not connected."  If I try to enable
the network connection, it never holds for long.  The only thing I can
do is close the app and come back to it after a while.  I have reset
my wireless router and have also reset the network settings on my
iPhone.  I have not yet reset my iPhone to its factory settings.

A few things to note:  I'm using an iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.1.13.
The connection is a fast and robust Verizon FiOS one, and I never lose
connectivity between my router and my Windows 7 Home Premium machine.
I never lose connectivity when I use TuneIn Radio Pro with my iPhone.
I use Safari very infrequently.

Can anyone imagine what the problem might be?  All help is appreciated.

Craig

Marissa, Do use punctuation? I wonder if you say period, etc. after each
sentence, if this would be better. Perhaps you already do that. I do, and I
so far don't have this problem. Now watch, the next time I use Siri, she
will give me some lip for being too long.

EPUB Buffet ? about selecting and downloading books

[Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.]

Hi,

Haven't taken the plunge on the app yet, but sure I will soon.

What's the process of getting selected books from EPUB Buffet onto our iDevice? 
For example, does one need to select them to add to a Wish List, then still go 
to amazon.com via browser to finalize acquisition, or is there a direct route 
from selecting within this app to our Kindle account?

Thanks in advance. Keith

Re: Camera app question

[Lisa belville]

Woops, I should have checked all of my mail before replying.  I recommended 
Talking Goggles.


Actually, I've had the same issues with talking Goggles as you're 
describing.  I can try TapTap See under the same conditions, i.e. distance 
from the object and lighting and get usable results from TapTap See.


TapTap See will identify pictures and give you a general summary.I took a 
picture of my dad sitting outside smoking a cigar and it told me the pic was 
a man in a green jacket.  I'm not sure if it didn't recognize the cigar or 
if it just zeroed in on the most obvious parts of the picture.  Also, my dad 
is bald, so it didn't have any hair to describe.  It recognized I had a 
black dog, though, so you might get lucky with a hair color.


I tried identifying a 2 liter of Pepsi using Talking Goggles and it never 
gave me any information while TapTap See was able to confirm that it was 
seeing a 2 liter of Pepsi.  Again, same product under the same conditions.


Both apps are useful, but Talking Goggles seems to be more particular 
regarding lighting and proximity to whatever you want described.  I've 
gotten it to read a few laundry detergent bottles and my PC screen enough to 
know where I was once when I lost speech, so it's worth  the small price tag 
for those two instances alone.

Subject: Camera app question


Okay, so in briefly playing around with Talking Goggles app, I got it to 
read portions of text to me, I've been trying to take a picture of the 
bottle of water, but for whatever reason it's not reading anything about 
that to me. I am in a fairly lit room, so not sure what's going on. What I'm 
Looking for, is an app that will tell me various products, and maybe that 
will read text to me, but will also tell me for example if I take a picture 
of my niece, is there one out there that will say for example, picture of a 
girls face with blond hair, etc, Or could this be done using the video 
camera, or am I thinking a little too far ahead in technology? Maybe I'll 
giveTap Tap See a try. Also, where are The pictures stored that you take 
with Talking Goggles?

Re: Camera app question

[Lisa belville]

Hi.  You want Talking Goggles.  I believe it's $0.99.

You can record using the video choice or the still camera.  Most of us on 
this list seem to have more luck with the video setting, but it wouldn't 
hurt to try it out.


It will read text back to you, though it's been hit or miss for me.  As far 
as I know, you can't store any pictures or videos made by Talking Goggles.

Chocolate is the answer... who cares what the question is!

Hi,
Just last night, someone on one of the lists was talking about an app that 
you could not only Take pictures with and it will read back to you what the 
picture was, but I think they said that you could also take a video of 
something, and it would get a read-out response of what the video was also. 
I don't remember which app though it was. I looked up Google goggles, and 
tap tap see, but none of these mention anything about a video readout. Does 
anyone know what the app is that I'm referring to that you can take pictures 
and video with, and you will get both read back out to you?

Thanks.

siri

[Marissa]

Dear list,

I use siri frequently on my Iphone 4s and i have noticed that I cannot send 
lengthy texts, as I used to be able to . I know siri has a limit as to how 
much can be spoken but something weird is going on example to follow:

Siri send text to Jill 
"What would you like to say to jill?"

Me dictating to Siri :"Hey Jill how are you" What are you up to I will call 
you later to talk about the baseball game and we need to get together for 
lunch."

Siri replies "easy there Marissa can you ask that question again but 
shorter?" or wow that's a lot of words or some quote about Thomas 
Jefferson. This usually happens when dictating texts that are lengthy, I 
called Apple and they said nothing is wrong with my phone that its just 
siri being siri I guess they have done "internal updates to her" on their 
end. Anyone think I should go to apple and have them look at the phone 
anyway? this just started happening just recently?

Thanks

marissa

Re: Kindle.

[Alan Paganelli]

I spent last night downloading a boat load of books that they were giving away 
for free.  I also don't want to abuse it either by grabbing everything in site 
either.  I only grabbed books that I was interested in.  It's really neat!

Re: The 2-finger double tap gesture

[tcorson2]

After purchasing my IPhone 5 with my first otterbox case, I found eventually 
that there is a little play between the actual screen on the phone and the 
cover on the case.  I do definitely have to tap harder.  So, there are 
always variables that one must take into account as to why different 
situations occur.  I think it is too late for me to take my case back to 
Verizon so will probably continue to deal with it.  I am certain that a 
sighted person probably would not be able to detect the slight difference, 
but since I had previously had an IPhone 4 with a different case, I can now 
tell the difference.  I did not realize it was not supposed to have that 
much play until I showed it to another blind user.

To assess sensitivity of touch screen on iDevice simply place your finger
very, very lightly on the screen. Then increasingly place more of the fleshy
part of your finger on the screen. Do this repeatedly. In very quick time
you will get an idea of the sensitivity and pressure necessary to activate
icons on a touch screen. You want to first almost not even touch the glassy
surface.

To determine the amount of movement necessary for a swipe, practice with a
similar task. Swipe your finger the very slightest bit until you get an idea
of the distance you have to swipe to move from one item to another. Then go
to the extremes. The idea being one of finding the sweet spot to move very
quickly through the icons and screen elements.

It must be an amazingly difficult task for user manual writers and such to
explain simple and complex ideas as it appears there will always be some
that just don't seem to be able to accomplish any task--this kinda thing
always seems to make me furl my eyebrows in confusion. :)

Camera app question

[Shane clark]

Hi,
Just last night, someone on one of the lists was talking about an app that you 
could not only Take pictures with and it will read back to you what the picture 
was, but I think they said that you could also take a video of something, and 
it would get a read-out response of what the video was also. I don't remember 
which app though it was. I looked up Google goggles, and tap tap see, but none 
of these mention anything about a video readout. Does anyone know what the app 
is that I'm referring to that you can take pictures and video with, and you 
will get both read back out to you?
Thanks.

RE: Saving Text Messages on Computer?

[Alan Lemly]

Thanks, Carol. That is very helpful. I've also found that from within the
message conversations, you can select edit at the top right of the screen
and individually mark those you want and then select forward at the bottom
right of the screen to forward them to an email address. This does work but
it can be time consuming if the thread has a lot of messages you want to
keep.

 

I ultimately decided to pony up $20 and bought the MobileSyncBrowwser
program which has both Apple and PC versions. This program allows you to
extract messages, notes, phone call history, etc. from the iPhone's backup
files on your PC to export to other formats on your computer. It works very
nicely.

Open the text at  the screen that you want to save, then take the rotor
round  to the edit section and one of those options you have is to select
all. Once you have done this you can copy to clipboard, then go to an email
and paste it there.

RE: importing all music in to iTunes, what's the secret?

[Alan Lemly]

If any of the music you imported into iTunes is in a nonsupported format
such as flac, that music will not show up. You'll need to convert it into a
supported format such as mp3, AAC, MP4, etc. before importing.

Okay, the subject line says it all.  I have all my music in folders
organized by artist, with each of their albums in folders with their name.
Now I am using the mac for this task, and when I go to import, I go to the
folder, open it, let all the rows of artist to be displayed, then click
open.  It says it is importing all of the music, but when I go to look for
some music, under a artists name, there is clearly some albums missing.
More than 2 or 3 also.  So what is the trick, to make sure iTunes doesn't
skip any of these albums?  I have already tried Google, that's why I am here
now.

Re: Setting brightness to 0 on Kindle app bug

[Mario Barbuto]

  Hi Rick,

it is enough to set the brightness to a value 
less than 100 to produce the effects you 
described: the left and right flick gestures do not work anymore.
Anyway, you could continue to use the various 
menu options moving your finger around the screen 
directly on the menu choices and tap them.
To get back the menu to normal, I mean, to turn 
the left/right single finger flicks working as 
usual, just set the Kindle app brightness value to 100 again.

This way, in my experience, the app reinstall process is not needed.

Mario.

option which is return to book.  I found this both on my iPhone and iPad Mini.


The only way I was able to get the menu back to 
normal was to delete the app from my device and reinstall.


Just mentioning it here in case anyone else runs 
into this.  Note that reinstalling the app fixes 
it and you don't lose anything, not even your last read place in your books.

audio on phone call

[The Smiths]

Hi

 

I am back trying to use the iphone 5 for a phone call without headphones.
What am I finding is that when the phone is up to my ear I can hear the
person speak but they can't hear me. When I take the phone away from my ear
it goes to speakerphone and conversation can be heard and made. Bring the
phone back up to my face and I can have it really close to my mouth but the
top end of the phone close to my ear mutes my speech and the caller cannot
hear me. A one way conversion with me holding the phone and not being heard.
I have seen on forums that this has happened to others but can't find a
solution. It seems to be only on the iphone 5. Has anyone on this list
experienced this and knows how to fix it? I want a conversation without
headphones and speakerphone. Many thanks.

 

Regards

Janine

Re: truly irritating publisher restriction on Kindle

[Penny Reeder]

Check with Barnes & Noble.  The Nook app may make it available, and
the Nook app is free as well.  I read a couple of magazines with the
Nook app.

It is disgusting that any publisher would restrict access in this way, I agree.

RE: Moderator's note Re: Note Master on sale for both the iPhone and iPad

[Ron Pelletier]

Raul,

Just to let you know, you are doing a fantastic job at moderating this list.
When you have a family with 2 or 3 kids, there is always one who is not
happy with something like meals or the size of his/her room or having to go
to bed too early so, imagine a family of 1500 kids and you've got your
answer as to exactly why you will never make everyone happy.  Keep up the
good work because most of us appreciate the bang-up job you are doing.  And,
in case you still are wondering, I don't think at all that you are in a
conflict of interest.  On the contrary you know what you are talking about.
Act like a duck, let the water flow over your feathers and keep your head up
high.

Hello Bob. Normally I do send messages privately to the individual who needs
a personal moderator note for list behavior. However this is one of those
situations where you are damned if you do and damned if you don't.

I'll explain. If I keep messages private to someone who needs a moderator
message then I get messages from list members asking me why I haven't dealt
with the offender. The reason is because it looks like I'm not doing
anything. Now, if I handle it publicly, then I get a message on list,
instead of privately I might add, about how I'm attacking a list member and
that I should have done it privately. Perhaps you should have written me
privately to follow your own advice? In any case, I don't like having to put
people on list moderation because it generates more work for me and because
I think that most everyone here is an adult and can conduct themselves
accordingly. I could take the extreme approach and just revoke posting
privileges completely, but I don't choose to go that route either.

Moderating a list can be a tough job because you risk alienating people when
you have to perform your duties. In my business I have to keep good
relationships because I'm in the access technology training field. It's been
suggested that I should not moderate a list whose topic covers what I teach
clients because of a conflict of interest, but I don't see it that way. I
see this list as an overall positive forum with a lot of good information
and good networking for iOS and iThingy users. I love the iPhone and iOS and
want to be a part of a community such as this list. Since I have list
moderating experience and since a moderator was needed when Cara needed
help, I volunteered, and here I am. If you have a problem with how the list
is handled, please write me or Cara Quinn off list and we will do our best
to explain why something was done, or to fix the problem.

Earlier this week I had to write a message to someone who I consider a
friend to tell him about some list conduct problems. I didn't like doing
that, but it's something I had to do for the good of the list in general. I
could have avoided that and simply moderated his postings, but I chose to
talk to him about it instead. As far as I know things have worked out just
fine. However no one knows about that because I didn't post about it.

So, why did I write to Bryan publicly? In case you are wondering, it wasn't
to attack him or make an example of him. It was because I want the list to
know that this isn't the kind of behavior we the list owner and moderator
tolerate. This kind of thing has been happening a lot more of late as you
pointed out, and if I keep all of this private, then it looks like I'm not
doing anything about it.
So, again, I'm back at square 1.

Thanks for reading this, and now, let's truly close this topic. If anyone
else has any issues with this, write me or Cara privately. If anyone doesn't
agree with a list decision I've made, write Cara directly and let her know.

Thank you all.

Bryan, someone has already given you the app description which you could have

you have that in case you don't have the skills to follow the link yourself to

truly irritating publisher restriction on Kindle

[Kevin Barry]

I wanted to purchase a subscription to Fortune 
magazine on  the Kindle.
I've been  deprived of this magazine for something like three years 
and I thought I'd finally get it back.

No dice.
When trying to purchase it I am informed that due to 
publisher  restrictions this content only works on kindle hardware 
and not the kindle app.
Thus ends the last bit of sympathy I shall ever have for any content 
publisher complaining about shrinking sales in the digital age.

Re: CardDav [was "Re: caldav account to sync google contacts"]

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, not trying to break my own rule by saying me too, but I must agree 
here that this is what I've done. Although I can't blame Sieghard for 
not wanting to do this. You shouldn't have to setup more than one 
account to have the services you want. In my case I was already setting 
up several things anyway, so I figured, why not? For example, I setup a 
calendar service for my daughter's school schedule. Since I was already 
in there, it was no big deal to setup another one for my Google 
contacts. Speaking of Google contacts, that's what I use as my main 
contact list on both the pc, Mac, and iPhone. So everything is always 
synced. I'm sure I could do the same with Outlook.com, but since I'm 
already established with Google I didn't want to take the extra time to 
switch.

if you

problem with my bellsouth calendar

[Candy]

Hello everyone, 
I am having a problem with my bellsouth calendar, which I may mention is yahoo. 
 Bellsouth mail is yahoo mail.  Any way, for the last few days, when I enter an 
appointment on my computer, it doesn't sync to my phone, and when I enter an 
appointment on my phone, it doesn't sync to my computer.  I then entered a new 
contact and it synced right away.  This is very important since all of my work 
is done by appointment.  I would like to be able to view it in both places and 
until a few days ago, I was able to do so.  I am willing to start over, use a 
new calendar app, what ever it takes as long as I am sure the appointments are 
backed up.  I imagine they are backed up to icloud, but, that doesn't work with 
jaws.  Any suggestions as to how I may fix this?  Thanks in advance.

Re: Buying A Kindle Book With The Amazon App

Hi, yes, I have no issues purchasing books via Safari or any PC browser. 
 I think what folks are responding to is that Robert Carter mentioned 
in his last podcast that he was able to purchase books via the Amazon 
app but others have not been able to do so so we're wondering what the 
magic sauce is unless he was mistaken..

Re: Using CardDAV - Was Re: caldav account to sync google contacts

[Rick Alfaro]

Sieghard ,

What has been your experience with regard to your IOS devices when using 
Outlook.com?  Since Google stopped supporting exchange on free accounts, 
I'm having a heck of a time keeping my Outlook contacts in sync with my 
iDevices.  They sync with iCloud, but not with Outlook like they used 
to.  Any thoughts?

HI Raul,

You might just be correct about using exchange for gmail. I used to have my
gmail account set up as an exchange account, but for some time now kept
getting a message "Connection to the Server Failed". I had removed my
account since I am not really using it anyways, but on the last Today in iOS
episode a caller asked for instruction on how to sync his Google contacts as
well. One caller had provided instructions on how to set it up as a CardDAV
account, but another caller called in and explained that one could set it up
as an Exchange account and provided the settings, m.google.com for the
server and google.com for the domain. Then of course your gmail email and
password. So I just tried to set up my account again using those settings
and while the account was created without a hitch, once I opened Mail and
went into my gmail Inbox I received the same "Connection to the Server
Failed" message. I guess this is another good reason why it is much simpler
to use Outlook.com. I consider Exchange and Exchange Active Sync to be much
better than IMAP which only does mail.

You need to use CardDav and not CalDav to sync your Google Contacts. I
suspect this is just a typo.

I'm not sure what's going on with your phone, I just followed the
instructions I got on the web and it just worked.

To set your default Contacts go into Settings -> Mail, Contacts,
Calendars and jump down to the Contacts heading. Double tapping on the
default account button will let you change it.

I didn't have to specify that contacts is the service I want to use. I'm
assuming that's because the CardDav protocol is being used.

Make sure you give the account a recognizable name so you won't get it
confused with your Google IMAP account in the Settings -> Mail,
Contacts, Calendars page.

For example, I see

Google, Mail, Calendar, Notes
Google, Contacts

Note, I called both accounts Google, so I didn't follow my advice from
above. The "Google, Contacts" is the CardDav account I added to sync my
Google Contacts.

Re: Setting brightness to 0 on Kindle app bug

[Rick Alfaro]

Raul,

You know after I got stuck when setting it to zero and had to reinstall, 
I didn't go back in there and just left it as it was.  (lol)


Best,

Rick alfaro

Hi Rick, that wasn't me, but wow, that's a bug for sure. So, I assume if
you set it to something close to 0, like 10, then things still work
right? let's hope so.

Thanks for that tip.

I'm pretty sure someone else posted regarding this, I think it was Raul.
  I'm seeing the following:

If I go into the Kindle app View options available from the double tap
menu, and set brightness to 0 to conserve battery life, the entire
double tap menu is reduced to only 1 option which is return to book.  I
found this both on my iPhone and iPad Mini.

The only way I was able to get the menu back to normal was to delete the
app from my device and reinstall.

Just mentioning it here in case anyone else runs into this.  Note that
reinstalling the app fixes it and you don't lose anything, not even your
last read place in your books.

Re: Note Master on sale for both the iPhone and iPad

[Rick Alfaro]

This is true but to be honest, I far prefer the picker because I find it 
to be much more efficient as opposed to continuously having to swipe 
through all of those apps to get to the one I want.  I found it weird at 
first but now really like it.

Hello, Lauren,


Just type Note Master into the search field of the app store's search tab, then 
when the results show up, place your finger on the first tab of the screen. 
Flick left from there, and you should reach a picker. Flick up to the second 
result. That's the full app.


Thanks,

Hi,

For those out there who have installed this NoteMaster app, where or how does 
one pay for it? I installed directly from my iPod Touch via Apps store, 
actually I was offered the lite version in the Apps store, and since I could 
not find a reference to the full version, I went ahead and installed the lite 
version. After having installed it, I tried looking through the menus for a 
link to download the full version but didn't find one and there is no reference 
to a lite version installed on my iPod Touch. I figure this is a good deal at 
$4 or whatever, but if I can get away with a buck, then why not? The installed 
file was some 26 megabytes in size. Hoping someone out there might know what's 
happening here. Thank you Eileen for the information leading to this purchase.

Hello Folks,

I thought I would alert the list that Note Master is on sale for both the 
iPhone and iPad. The price is 0.99 reduced from 3.99. I use it all the time 
when I am traveling for my job. It is accessible with VO and the most recent 
update has made the app a pleasure to use. Here is the link:
http://link.store-news-app.com/2.0/?itunes=https%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Fnotemaster-amazing-notes-synced%2Fid297921531%3Fmt%3D8&storeID=1
Enjoy.

Re: Kindle.

[Arianna]

That's really odd. I don't have that issue at all. Have you tried placing a 
finger on the middle of the screen and then turning the rotor to images? 
Sometimes this fixes the issue. I've had this issue happen in one or two apps, 
but that's usually fixed it for me. If that doesn't cut it you might want to 
try all the other usual stuff—closing the app, restarting VO, restarting the 
phone, etc.


Thanks,
Ari

CardDav [was "Re: caldav account to sync google contacts"]

[Christopher Chaltain]

I only had to set up two accounts. One handles mail, calendar and notes. 
This is just using the default setup for Gmail. The second is for 
contacts and uses the CardDav protocol.

mail, contacts and calendar you have to set up 3 different accounts, if you
use Outlook.com with Exchange Active Sync you set it up once and it does it
all. I'm sure glad I decided to go with Hotmail/Windows Live 4 years ago
when I decided to stop using my provider's email, yes, changing email
addresses is a bit of work, but I still have my provider's email so one can
do it over time, but once it's done it's well worth it.

RE: caldav account to sync google contacts

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Matthew,

Go to Settings, Mail, Contacts, Calendar
Click on Add Account
Select "Other" at the very bottom of the list of accounts you can set up
On the next screen, select "CardDAV" account under the Contacts heading
Now enter your credentials, the server is google.com, then your gmail
address and password.
You can give the account a name such as Google Contacts

Also, here is a link with the same instructions from Google + some
additional information.
Doing a google search for "Setting up a CardDAV account for Google Contacts"
gave me that information in the first search result:

RE: Voice Over

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Beverly,

Have you tried a triple press of the Home Key? If you haven't enabled this,
I highly recommend you do so once you have Voiceover going again.

In iTunes, go to your device, by default the Summary tab should be checked.
Just tab all the way past your serial number, past where you can do a
restore and an encrypted backup and eventually you come to "Universal
Access". Activate that button and that is where you find the option to turn
on Voiceover.


Regards,
Sieghard

Hello List,

Never in my right mind did I think I would generate such a discussion 
about posting info on a app that others would be interested in. For those 
that need to have things given to them on a silver platter, get a life. I 
have been a member of this list for a few years and I can think back when 
others would request for a link to a specific app recommended or the cost 
of an app. This would irritate me because they wouldn't take the time to 
look it up for themselves, but I would never be rude to them.  The only 
way one can grow is to take ownership and responsibility for obtaining the 
info for themselves. Like others on this list, I am gainfully employed and 
have limited time at times to post a elaborate email regarding a full 
detail info on an app or all the features that makes it terrific.


Thanks for the kind words and support from the list. It is my suggestion 
that if list members want to belittle another list member for not meeting 
their high unrealistic expectation that they be place on monitor status. 
It's hard to have to deal with some of the rudeness from sighted 
individuals, to be subjected to rudeness from the blindness community. I 
will continue to enjoy the list, but will think twice of posting info to 
it. I don't have time for this kind of treatment in my life. Thanks for 
listening anD I will close this subject.

Re: removing the sim card in a 4 s

[Kay Malmquist]

Okay, This is just what I thought as it was the only hole I found.  How hard 
do you have  to press in on the paper clip?  I couldn't get it to budge. 
And one more thing.  If I put my sim in to another phone can I use it that 
way or will I need to set up my user name and password?  Any suggestions for 
in the U S as to what carrier would be a good one to just buy a sim card for 
so I can play with this phone?  I already have a 4 S but this one is jail 
broken and I just want to play with it.  Thanks for any help.

As  you're looking at the right side of the phone with the home
button to your left; the hole to insert the pin is to the left of the sim 
tray.
There is only one place it can go.

Subject: Buying A Kindle Book With The Amazon App


Whenever I try to buy a kindle book through the amazon app, it tells me that 
this mobile app does not support kindle downloads, gives me the option to 
add it to my wish list, and I am then supposed to log into amazon with my 
browser and buy it from my wish list.  But on the latest Tech Doctor 
podcast, the subject of which was the kindle app, Dr. Carter implied that he 
had been able to buy a book directly from this app.  I know that he reads 
this list sometimes, so if you see this, Dr. Carter, please tell me how you 
were able to buy a book without the additional two steps.  Or, if anybody 
else knows, let me know.  I am willing to log in with Safari to buy it, but 
if it can be done directly with the amazon app, I would like to know how to 
do it.


Thanks for any information.

I found that just putting the brightness back to 100% fixed the issue on my 
iPad without me having to uninstall the app and reinstall it. I also found 
that the menu wasn't actually reduced to just the one choice, "return to 
book". But you couldn't flick to any other choices, but had to actually find 
them on screen by exploring. Again, this was on an iPad, not the phone.

Hi Carl, 

I just typed in Kindle in the search box.  If we are talking about the same
app, it is listed as ebook buffet.  It is the fifth choice.

I can't remember who mentioned it, but recently somebody wrote to the list

gives you access to free Kindle books. It's awesome!

Re: Moderator's note Re: Note Master on sale for both the iPhone and iPad

[Robert Fenton]

Hello everybody: 

I don't usually respond to notes such as this but I am noticing a very 
disturbing trend on this list when discussions get heated and the moderators 
have to step in. While I generally support the moderators in breaking up the 
disputes, some of the tactics being used for doing so only serve to demonstrate 
or emulate the behaviors that were problematic in the first place. The note 
below is a good example of this problem. In attempting to raise concerns about 
behavior that needed to be dealt with where one list member was attacking 
others, the moderator used this forum to in turn attack the offender. 

Rather than proceeding this way, could the moderators consider sending a 
message like the one below solely to the perceived offender while, at the same 
time, notifying the rest of the specific infraction, the behavioral standard 
that is expected and that the matter has been raised directly with the person 
who breached the behavioral standard? That way, other list members can pattern 
good behaviors rather than problematic ones in circumstances like this. 

Thanks for listening. Bob Fenton

Re: Buying A Kindle Book With The Amazon App

[Cris Ali]

Sandy, Are you on the accessibility page of amazon?  I only got this message 
when I logged on to the www.amazon.com/access.  When I logged on to the 
regular page I had no trouble at all.  Try to go to amazon.com instead of 
amazon.com/access and see if this solves the problem.

I am trying to purchase a book with my PC, not with the Amazon App on my
phone.  I have the book on my wish list. I then click on the book's title
and I get the following message:
" This mobile site does not currently support the purchase of this item. Add
it to
your Wish List and you can view and purchase it from your computer."


But I am on my computer; I am not on a mobile web site. And the book is
already on my wish list. It's as if I am in a loop.

I have used Amazon to buy many things; the account is long established.

As stated many times here; you cannot purchase through the app. You have to
use the website.

At 03:49 AM 5/9/2013, you wrote:

Whenever I try to buy a kindle book through the amazon app, it tells me
that this mobile app does not support kindle downloads, gives me the
option to add it to my wish list, and I am then supposed to log into
amazon with my browser and buy it from my wish list.  But on the latest
Tech Doctor podcast, the subject of which was the kindle app, Dr.
Carter implied that he had been able to buy a book directly from this
app.  I know that he reads this list sometimes, so if you see this, Dr.
Carter, please tell me how you were able to buy a book without the
additional two steps.  Or, if anybody else knows, let me know.  I am
willing to log in with Safari to buy it, but if it can be done directly
with the amazon app, I would like to know how to do it.

Thanks for any information.

 I'm seeing the following:

If I go into the Kindle app View options available from the double tap
menu, and set brightness to 0 to conserve battery life, the entire
double tap menu is reduced to only 1 option which is return to book.  I
found this both on my iPhone and iPad Mini.

app from my device and reinstall.

Just mentioning it here in case anyone else runs into this.  Note that
reinstalling the app fixes it and you don't lose anything, not even your
last read place in your books.

Re: Finding free apps

[Donna]

Hi

The 2 apps that I use to alert me to FREE apps are; app price drop and apps 
gone free. Both are fully accessible with voiceover. Keep in mind, even you 
uses these apps for Free apps, you will still have to take a chance with the 
app by downloading it from the app store to see if it is functionablefor you. 
This can sometimes become frustrating, especially when an app of interest is 
free, but won't work for you.

RE: Access Note won't Stay Open

[Sarah Cranston]

Hi Sandy,

Before taking what I like to call the sledgehammer approach,  deleting and 
reinstalling, try turning your phone off and on again. If the app continues to 
crash, try a reboot. Hold down the power button and the home button for around 
fifteen seconds. If you have enough vision, you will see the Apple logo appear 
on the screen. Once that logo appears it's safe to let go of the two buttons. A 
reboot often helps when an app crashes.

HTH,

Sarah

Subject: Access Note won't Stay Open

The subject says it all.  I have been using Access Note successfully and often 
to take notes at meetings at work.  Now when I launch the app it won't stay 
open.  I hear "access note, all notes" and then the app closes. The only change 
I can think of is that I placed the app in a folder. But I've done this with 
lots of apps and no problem.  Any ideas of how to solve this? Thanks.

Re: Kindle.

Well there are quite a lot of ads, getting around them isn't too difficult. 
Just use the rotor to navigate by images, and things should work pretty well.

I usually have to use the picker. Ever since Apple redesigned their app store, 
only one result at a time seems to show up on the page. Correct me if I'm

RE: How do you deal with the table of contents on a Kindle book

[Sarah Cranston]

Do you mean something like autoscroll? I don't know if there is such a 
keystroke. The speed at which I read refreshable Braille tends to vary, so 
autoscroll isn't something I would use. Still, I know other screen readers have 
it, so it would be a nice addiction to VoiceOver.

Subject: Re: How do you deal with the table of contents on a Kindle book

Hi.

Can anyone tell me how to do that with a braille display.

I can find the table of content, but to select and start to read from an item 
in the table of content will not work for me.

Cheers Annie.

Re: more about External microphone needed for iPhone 5

[Sean Paul]

Neal:
Yes, I'm afraid that you're dreaming here. About the best mic I've found for 
use with the iDevices is the iRig mic which can be found online as well as at 
some local Walmart stores. This mic runs anywhere from 50-65 dollars depending 
on from where you purchase. This is a mic which pluggs directly in to the input 
jack on the devices. I use this mic for conducting onsite interviews. This mic 
has 3 different settings which will allow you to get pretty good sound. This 
mic also has an audio jack which allows you to plug in headphones to monitor 
your audio coming from it & the iDevice as well. This mic will work on any of 
the iDevices & will work with a meriod of different recording apps. Such as 
Bossjock, FiRe 2, the built in memo app, list recorder, etc. Note, this mic 
comes with a recording app which is worthless imo. I've also purchased a pop 
fillter for this mic. The mic can be used without the pop fillter, however, 
I've found that it works much better with one. I've also used an old sock, yes, 
washed of course... to accomplish the same task at times as well. Past that, If 
you've an iPad you can buy the Camera kit & run a USB mic using it. I use the 
Camera kit & run the Audio Technica ATR-2100 mic which is a USB/XLR combo 
Cardioid Dynamic mic. The audio on this mic is great using it both as a USB mic 
as well as an XLR mic. If you'd like some audio of this mic in action. I'll be 
glad to send you some. I've been told that the camera kit will work on iPhone 
5's to acomplish the same task however, since I do not currently have a 5, I 
can't speak on this. You could also buy a XLR adaptor from VeriCorder which 
will allow you to plug an XLR mic in to an iDevice, these adaptors get rather 
expensive very quickly & I've never tried this option. However, I have a friend 
who is a reporter in DC who uses his iPhone & iPad exscusively to news gather & 
report who does use this setup some. He tells me that he doesn't like it as 
much as just using the built in mic on the iDevices as there gets a bunch of 
digital noise in the audio after it is sent through the stations processing 
equitment. Any further, probably be a good idea to contact me directly off list 
as I'm sure this has gone way past the scope of this list at this point.

  Subject: RE: more about External microphone needed for iPhone 5


   

  Hi, another option I might have if I could find the right adapter is that I 
have a number of over the ear microphones that work with cordless phones and 
also work on my computer and other recorders. Unfortunately, Apple's wisdom 
suggested to them that they reverse the wires to their microphone connection, 
so none of these work with the iPhone. I have not yet found any kind of adapter 
to make these work, but I am guessing there is something out there. Anyone?

  Subject: External microphone needed for iPhone 5

   

  Hi all. I am looking for a microphone for my iPhone 5 that has the following 
properties. I'm not sure I will find it, but I am not happy with any of the 
ones I have.

   

  I would like one that does not do noise canceling. I have found that most of 
these do very strange things to the sound given the particular noise that is in 
the background.

   

  I would like it to have a boom that comes out close to my mouth. I think that 
may be the killer and there may be none I can find like that. I have found that 
the ear pods and others that have the microphone hanging off of the wire sound 
way too far away.

   

  I would like it to be wired, either one ear or two doesn't matter. I have one 
of the best Bluetooth microphones of the lot, the Plantronics m50, and, let's 
just say, I have heard way better.

   

  It does not need to be stereo. Mono would be preferred.

   

  Am I dreaming? I think so, but perhaps someone on this list might come up 
with something.

   

  Thanks much for reading and considering my question.

   

  Neal

Questions About The Heytell App

[Kerri Kosten]

Hi Everyone:

I recently discovered the Heytell app.
However, I have a question.
I have Heytell connected to my Facebook account.
However, I can't seem to be able to see who uses Heytell from my
Facebook friends. When I hit the button to select contact it brings up
my address book.
Is there any way I can see my Facebook friends instead of my address book?
Also, I don't see a contacts tab. Do you just hit the select contact
button from the conversations tab in order to see your contacts?
I want to see my Facebook friends though, not my address book.
Thanks,
Kerri

RE: Buying A Kindle Book With The Amazon App

[Sandy Finley]

I am trying to purchase a book with my PC, not with the Amazon App on my
phone.  I have the book on my wish list. I then click on the book's title
and I get the following message:
" This mobile site does not currently support the purchase of this item. Add
it to
your Wish List and you can view and purchase it from your computer."


But I am on my computer; I am not on a mobile web site. And the book is
already on my wish list. It's as if I am in a loop.  

I have used Amazon to buy many things; the account is long established.

Access Note won't Stay Open

[Sandy Finley]

The subject says it all.  I have been using Access Note successfully and
often to take notes at meetings at work.  Now when I launch the app it won't
stay open.  I hear "access note, all notes" and then the app closes. The
only change I can think of is that I placed the app in a folder. But I've
done this with lots of apps and no problem.  Any ideas of how to solve this?
Thanks.
