kindle app

2013-07-01 Thread Gary Petraccaro
I just had an experience where recently purchased books on a Kindle did not 
appear on my phone unless I deliberately searched for them.  Any ideas?

Thanks.

 Hi all.  MBraille is now available.  As a tester, I can say that this app 
 is
 awesome as it supports contracted and uncontracted Braille and it also is 
 in
 6 languages.  You can also tweet, facebook, send a mail message, and text 
 as
 well as perform some callendar functions.  You can also do a google search
 from the app.  It costs 30 dollars.  There's also an email list.  To
 subscribe send a blank message to mbraille-subscr...@lists.mpaja.com After
 sending you will get a confirmationmessage to reply to and then you are 
 on.
 If you have any questions that's a great list and the developer is
 constantly making improvements.  Also if there are any questions I'll be
 happy to answer them as well as any of the other testers.  There is a free
 version which I know allows for tweeting.  Enjoy!

I really want to learn to use MBraille, and I'm a lifelong braille
user.  However, I am having a lot of trouble brailling with it.  Is it
maybe because I am using an iPhone 4.0?

No jailbreak for 6.1.3 on the 5 unfortunately and I'm not sure I

Re: goolge maps with turn by turn on the iPhone 4 how to get the spoken turn by turn directions to work

2013-07-01 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, the latest version of Google maps start button isn't spoken as start 
button, but as something inocuus. Just tap the bottom center of the 
screen and double tap and the directions will start. I use this app 
almost daily to get bus directions here in Houston for the Metro and it 
works super. It's true that it could use some better accessibility, but 
it still works the way it is.

Re: jailbreak and itunes

2013-07-01 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, if you have anything newer than 6.1.3 you will not be able to 
jailbreak. Once you jailbreak you can use an app called PWNTunes which 
will allow you to copy and paste music into your iPhone's my music 
folder and then it will build the database for the Music app to play the 
music as if you had synced it via iTunes. However if the only reason you 
want to jailbreak is because of a problem in iTunes, you might want to 
explore that problem first and see what's up with it and perhaps get 
that fixed. I don't want to assume, but it sounds like you are trying to 
fix a rip in your pants by making that rip bigger first in order to 
eventually patch it, rather than just patching it up the right way to 
begin with. Don't get me wrong, I am a supporter of jailbreaking, but I 
also know it's not for everyone, and most especially if a person is 
frustrated about something which isn't on the phone directly.


Good luck.

What I don't like about the Kindle app is, your books get stored in the 
Kindle cloud.  You can either store them on your device or in the cloud but 
you cannot store them on your computer.  That means you cannot copy them to 
your external hard drive.  The cloud is fine as long as you have access to

Re: jailbreak and itunes

2013-07-01 Thread Shane clark
So Raul, you cannot jailbreak iOS 6.13 on a 4S right?

Sent from my iPhone

 Hi, if you have anything newer than 6.1.3 you will not be able to jailbreak. 
 Once you jailbreak you can use an app called PWNTunes which will allow you to 
 copy and paste music into your iPhone's my music folder and then it will 
 build the database for the Music app to play the music as if you had synced 
 it via iTunes. However if the only reason you want to jailbreak is because of 
 a problem in iTunes, you might want to explore that problem first and see 
 what's up with it and perhaps get that fixed. I don't want to assume, but it 
 sounds like you are trying to fix a rip in your pants by making that rip 
 bigger first in order to eventually patch it, rather than just patching it up 
 the right way to begin with. Don't get me wrong, I am a supporter of 
 jailbreaking, but I also know it's not for everyone, and most especially if a 
 person is frustrated about something which isn't on the phone directly.
 
 Good luck.

open tomorrow and get in their face about your dissatisfaction with the app. 
This is not a toll free number but it's worth a shot to talk to a live person.

Subject: so frustrated with an app, please help

 

Hi listers,

as the subject says I'm so frustrated, I'm all most in tears.

A while back I was at the university of waterloo in Ontario Canada, and some 
one demonstrated the zoomreader app to me to help me read boxes and cans 
amongst other things.  At the time I thought as soon as I could afford it I 
definitely would invest in this app.  A few days ago my husband got me an app 
store card.  By now there was a lot of apps I wanted since I laid my eyes on 
zoomreader back in February.  Since zoomreader is $20.00 and that was the full 
amount of the card, I decided to get some other things I wanted and get the 
zoomreader another time.  I got the sluzzle game and abbyy text grabber and 
translator, and so far I am really happy with the purchases I made.  I also 
wanted to get a portable cctv in February because that was also demonstrated to 
me at the University but they are very expensive, and this morning I was 
browsing the via app and I clicked on cctv and magnification and came across an 
app called seeit, and after reading the description decided to get it, here is 
where my frustration starts.

The app comes with an invert feature which works just fine, it makes the page 
black with white text which is the only way my eyes can actually see printed 
material.  The app is pretty straight forward, there is a flash light button on 
the top right hand corner of the screen.  At the bottom there is a normal 
button, color button, an invert button and a resume/pause button.  The app when 
you open it basically automatically opens your video camera using the rear 
facing camera.  Right above these buttons is a long bar that if you swipe up 
and down it's suppose to zoom the screen.  All buttons work with voiceover.  I 
placed a cd cover on a white counter background and low and behold in the 
middle of the screen there is a black square with white lines on it.  I try 
zooming it but nothing.  When I move the camera close to the document the white 
lines become large blurry peaces of text.  I let the I phone stand still for it 
to autofocus and maybe that will clear up the text, but nothing.  I tried with 
regular color but nothing, I tried with the flash light on and off but nothing. 
 I let my fully sighted husband try the app, and guess what?  

he couldn't get the text clear unless he had it at it's smallest zoom level and 
even then he had to wear his glasses to read the print.  The app has a problem 
zooming and auto focusing and it doesn't replace thousand dollar portable 
cctv's as the seller describes on the app store.  I just wasted seven dollars 
from my gift card which could have went somewhere else to give me accessibility 
in another app to make my life easier.

I contacted apple and they told me they could not help me with support because 
I bought my I phone a year ago and I was not entitled to support unless I paid 
$35.00 then I told the lady that it was regarding the app store, an app that 
doesn't stand up to it's description, and that who do I contact about a refund. 
 She told me the only way to get help was to visit www.expresslane.apple.com  
So I did, all I got was frequently asked questions, articles, and tricks  
tips, and instructions.  Great for other issues but nothing about refunds.  
Then I called the toll free accessibility number and the really nice guy told 
me to click on to the same sight, and click on iTunes, then store, then 
purchases and downloads.  I tried this too but nothing, no where where I could 
send a request for a refund.  I'm so sorry for the long

original and complete format so I'm not really sure what you mean. The 
filenames are a bit cryptic since they contain no title but just a book number. 
I don't disagree with your assessment of the Kindle for PC program but it seems 
once you've downloaded it, Amazon keeps track of that and gives you the option 
to save a new Kindle purchase to either your iDevice or your PC. At least it 
did for me.



  There was a pretty good thread on this issue from Neal Ewers a while back but 
I guess you missed it.

  Alan, I'm talking about storing the books on your computer in their origenal 
format not as a book number.  You've paid for the book so why can't you keep it 
on your computer and back it up to DVDEs in the origenal format.  I had the 
Kindle reader accessible version on my computer and didn't think much of it.

Actually, if you have the Kindle for PC program installed, Amazon should 
give you an option to download the Kindle book to your PC or your iDevice. I 
have a folder called My Kindle Content that has Kindle books in it. Of course, 
they are named with numbers so you can't tell what they are by title but they 
are on my PC.

What I don't like about the Kindle app is, your books get stored in the 
Kindle cloud.  You can either store them on your device or in the cloud but you 
cannot store them on your computer.  That means you cannot copy them to your 
external hard drive.  The cloud is fine as long as you have access to it.

Re: Travel Booking Apps

2013-07-01 Thread Wayne Merritt
Sieghard,
I need to thank you for reaching out to the developer and for telling
us about the Booking.com app. My wife and I needed to book a hotel
rather quickly last week and I recalled your messages about this app.
I was a little skeptical of finding a hotel in the area we were going
to, but I did find not just one but many listings. I found one that
fit what we were looking for and was able to book the hotel stay very
easily. It took a little trial and error to figure out what button to
press in order to add the hotel or the room choices, but I completed
the process independently and without major incident. I especially
liked the process of selecting the expiration year for my credit card.
Very smooth and fluid. I also liked how it asked me if I wanted to add
the hotel stay to my calendar and to Passbook. I haven't really had a
need to use Passbook, but do like how you can access information in
there. Great app!

Regards,
Wayne Merritt

On 6/30/13, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote:
 Eric,

 I posted a few messages about the Booking.com app which is probably one of
 the most complete hotel booking apps with over 300,000 hotels and Bed and
 Breakfasts offered worldwide. I contacted the company in mid May because
 while the app was fully accessible, once you did a search and ended up on
 the results page, Voiceover was very slow and sluggish and you couldn't
 swipe through the results properly. If you did pick a hotel by double
 tapping on it, then the rest of the booking process was fully accessible
 again.

 I received an immediate reply regarding my request and was told that this
 would be passed on to the developers. A week or so later I received another
 message (without asking) that the development team was looking into this.
 About another week or 10 days later I received a third message saying that
 the development was in the process of making changes which would improve
 Voiceover accessibility and that these improvements would be available in
 the next update. It took about 2 weeks for the update to appear on the app
 store, but it did come out in mid June and now the app works perfectly.
 There are still a few buttons which could maybe be labeled a bit better,
 but
 nothing is so that one can't figure it out easily.

 Booking.com is a pretty large organization and I was very impressed with
 their reaction, it was basically a month from when I contacted them until
 the improved app was available in the app store.

 Kayak works quite well, too, but I like Booking.com because it integrates
 with Passbook and so does the Air Canada app which is very accessible so at
 least for most of my domestic travel here in Canada I can have all my
 confirmations, boarding passes and so on in Passbook and I find that very
 convenient.

 The Trip Advisor app is by the way also accessible and a good resource if
 you want to check out ratings and reviews of hotels, attractions and
 activities. I booked my entire Thailand trip using mostly Booking.com and
 Trip Advisor. When I was there I did use an app called Thai Flight to book
 some in-country flights.

 If you search for booking.com you should find my previous posts quite
 easily in the archives since it's a unique search term.


 Regards,
 Sieghard

RE: Questions concerning using email on the iPhone.

2013-07-01 Thread Sarah Cranston
Control+Shift+Up Arrow is a standard Windows keystroke. It selects the text 
from your current location to the top of the window. Then the text can be 
deleted. With an iPhone, turn Quick Nav off, then down arrow until you come to 
the first blank line after the text you want to delete. Press Shift Up Arrow 
until all the text is selected, then press Backspace to delete it.

  Hi Alan,
  My Kindle books are inside my documents folder, in a folder also named, My 
Kindle Content.
  You can rename the book files such as,
  B00C4ZHD0O_EBOK.azw
  to,
  Sully Street B00C4ZHD0O_EBOK.azw
  If I open that file the Kindle  for PC reader will be launched and the book 
title will be on the screen.
  Then I just hit control plus r to read the book or space bar to stop.

Hi, if you have anything newer than 6.1.3 you will not be able to jailbreak. 
Once you jailbreak you can use an app called PWNTunes which will allow you to 
copy and paste music into your iPhone's my music folder and then it will build 
the database for the Music app to play the music as if you had synced it via 
iTunes. However if the only reason you want to jailbreak is because of a 
problem in iTunes, you might want to explore that problem first and see what's 
up with it and perhaps get that fixed. I don't want to assume, but it sounds 
like you are trying to fix a rip in your pants by making that rip bigger first 
in order to eventually patch it, rather than just patching it up the right way 
to begin with. Don't get me wrong, I am a supporter of jailbreaking, but I also 
know it's not for everyone, and most especially if a person is frustrated about 
something which isn't on the phone directly.

Good luck.

Re: GPS issues - request clarification

2013-07-01 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, Blindsquare does an ok job of telling you how far you are from the 
intersection. It tends to work better if you are walking rather than 
moving in a vehicle like a bus or someone's car though. Yes, as far as I 
know, if you have an iPod Touch with a compatible GPS it can connect to, 
then it should work just fine. I have personally never tried this though.

Re: Storing Kindle Books on Your PC

No.  You cannot read kindle content on a stream.  I like the kindle app for 
iPhone though as it lets me keep some books on my iPhone for those times I find 
myself sitting around somewhere and need to waste some time.  Nothing like 
having a book to listen to.  When that happens I usually have an ear phone in 
my pocket just for those private listening times.

   number. I don't disagree with your assessment of the Kindle for PC program
   but it seems once you've downloaded it, Amazon keeps track of that and 
   gives
   you the option to save a new Kindle purchase to either your iDevice or 
   your
   PC. At least it did for me.
  
  
  
   There was a pretty good thread on this issue from Neal Ewers a while back
   but I guess you missed it.

   Alan, I'm talking about storing the books on your computer in their 
   origenal
   format not as a book number.  You've paid for the book so why can't you 
   keep
   it on your computer and back it up to DVDEs in the origenal format.  I had
   the Kindle reader accessible version on my computer and didn't think much 
   of
   it.

   Actually, if you have the Kindle for PC program installed, Amazon should
   give you an option to download the Kindle book to your PC or your iDevice. 
   I
   have a folder called My Kindle Content that has Kindle books in it. Of
   course, they are named with numbers so you can't tell what they are by 
   title
   but they are on my PC.

   What I don't like about the Kindle app is, your books get stored in the
   Kindle cloud.  You can either store them on your device or in the cloud 
   but
   you cannot store them on your computer.  That means you cannot copy them 
   to
   your external hard drive.  The cloud is fine as long as you have access to
   it.

Subject: so frustrated with an app, please help

 

Hi listers,

as the subject says I'm so frustrated, I'm all most in tears.

A while back I was at the university of waterloo in Ontario Canada, and some 
one demonstrated the zoomreader app to me to help me read boxes and cans 
amongst other things.  At the time I thought as soon as I could afford it I 
definitely would invest in this app.  A few days ago my husband got me an app 
store card.  By now there was a lot of apps I wanted since I laid my eyes on 
zoomreader back in February.  Since zoomreader is $20.00 and that was the full 
amount of the card, I decided to get some other things I wanted and get the 
zoomreader another time.  I got the sluzzle game and abbyy text grabber and 
translator, and so far I am really happy with the purchases I made.  I also 
wanted to get a portable cctv in February because that was also demonstrated to 
me at the University but they are very expensive, and this morning I was 
browsing the via app and I clicked on cctv and magnification and came across an 
app called seeit, and after reading the description decided to get it, here is 
where my frustration starts.

The app comes with an invert feature which works just fine, it makes the page 
black with white text which is the only way my eyes can actually see printed 
material.  The app is pretty straight forward, there is a flash light button on 
the top right hand corner of the screen.  At the bottom there is a normal 
button, color button, an invert button and a resume/pause button.  The app when 
you open it basically automatically opens your video camera using the rear 
facing camera.  Right above these buttons is a long bar that if you swipe up 
and down it's suppose to zoom the screen.  All buttons work with voiceover.  I 
placed a cd cover on a white counter background and low and behold in the 
middle of the screen there is a black square with white lines on it.  I try 
zooming it but nothing.  When I move the camera close to the document the white 
lines become large blurry peaces of text.  I let the I phone stand still for it 
to autofocus and maybe that will clear up the text, but nothing.  I tried with 
regular color but nothing, I tried with the flash light on and off but nothing. 
 I let my fully sighted husband try the app, and guess what?  

he couldn't get the text clear unless he had it at it's smallest zoom level and 
even then he had to wear his glasses to read the print.  The app has a problem 
zooming and auto focusing and it doesn't replace thousand dollar portable 
cctv's as the seller describes on the app store.  I just wasted seven dollars 
from my gift card which could have went somewhere else to give me accessibility 
in another app to make my life easier.

I contacted apple and they told me they could not help me with support because 
I bought my I phone a year ago and I was not entitled to support unless I paid 
$35.00 then I told the lady that it was regarding the app store, an app that 
doesn't stand up to it's description, and that who do I contact about a refund. 
 She told me the only way to get help was to visit www.expresslane.apple.com  
So I did, all I got was frequently asked questions, articles, and tricks  
tips, and instructions.  Great for other issues but nothing about refunds.  
Then I called the toll free accessibility number and the really nice guy told 
me to click on to the same sight, and click on iTunes, then store, then 
purchases and downloads.  I tried this too but nothing, no where where I could 
send a request for a refund.  I'm so sorry for the long message but I wanted to 
be as clear and detailed with my problem and frustration.  Can anyone help?  Am 
I stuck with a six dollar plus applicable provincial taxes app that I can't 
use?  There must be a way to get my money back and use it towards an app that 
will be beneficial to me and my accessibility needs, instead of an app sitting 
on my phone that not only I can't use but even a sighted person can't use.

Thanks for listening, again please accept my apologies for the long message, 
and thank you in advance to anyone who can provide me with any feedback or help.

Regards 

the almost in tears Zoe

an alternative to chord 1+4 often use dot 7 when the bluetooth
connection has been established, works on my iphone 4 and 4s  tried
with Focus Brailliant and Braille Edge displays and it all works.
Best regards, Jesper.

 Is there a way to lock the screen with a braille display?

 First, the command spacebar plus dots 1,4 is in the list of braille

 Is it a worth while command, not in my opinion, I was just reporting the
 fact that it does work, but only in a very specific situation.

 Make sure your device is locked.
 2.  Turn on the braille display of your choice.
 3.  Wait a few extra seconds, say 10.
 4.  Press the home key on your device.
 5.  Wait again until you hear the display and the device connect.
 6.  Press spacebar plus dots 1,4 and your device will unlock.  If you have
 a pin code to unlock your device, you can then enter it; otherwise it will
 simply unlock.

 Personally, I’ve done  this with the Refreshabraille 18 and an iPod Touch
 5th gen, the BrailleSense Plus and an iPhone 5 and with the Braille Edge
 and both devices, as well as the Focus 14 and the iPhone 5.

 However, if I am going to press the home key to wake up the device part
 way, I am going to just reach up and double tap to unlock it.  But the
 original question was simply, can I unlock the device with my braille
 display?
 Just because something can be done doesn’t mean it should.

 Richard

RE: goggles problem

2013-07-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Alan and Lois,

 

I don't have the 1.3 version any more, either. Anyhow, I am not sure if you
saw my message, but I did write to Sparkling Apps, the developer of Talking
Goggles and received a reply 5 minutes later in which they said they would
look into this. Let's give them a chance to do so, I saw a lot of complaints
from people saying it wasn't working any more, but it appears nobody thought
that maybe this should be brought to the attention of the developer or at
least nobody said they had written to them. If anybody wants to add their
voice to mine, you can send an email to supp...@sparklingapps.com.

Sieghard

Goggles had a new update, version 1.4, which came out about June 17th. Is
this when the problems began? You might want to roll back to version 1.3 if
you kept a backup.

not just a point and shoot like tap tap see is.  I use it on my washing
machine and dryer.  They both have electronic controls and a LCD screen.
Now add to that, trying to get a description on a washing machine that's
shaking side to side making the screen shake and yet if I play with talking
goggles enough, I can usually get it to tell me what I need to know but it
can also take 10 minutes of fooling around too.  It is not a point and shoot
app but with patients and exparimentation it does work as advertised.

When I first got Goggles it worked fine. Though I admit that I wasn't always

phone and I have it set to have speech on and best result to no affect. I
don't know what has suddenly changed. I even tried using a still capture
image and it says nothing is ever recognized. I know I have lights on even
if the flash on the phone itself isn't on. I'm using the 4s. My brother
wondered if perhaps how much reception you have or data bars may have
anything to do with it. That I don't know. I am in Ohio visiting family

in anyway. If anyone is able to shed light on the current problem it would

Talking Goggles - the answer to why it doesn't work from the developer

2013-07-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello All,

 

Below is the reply I received from Sparkling Apps, the developers of Talking
Goggles. The problem is not on their end, but it has to do with what seems
to be turning into open warfare between Apple and Google. Apparently Talking
Goggles used Google in some way, but you all can read the message. If I hear
back from the developer regarding a solution I'll post it.

Dear Sieghard,

 

For now, it seems that google has stopped support for goggles from iOS

off the store until we find a solution to get around this.

Re: Questions concerning using email on the iPhone.

2013-07-01 Thread Christopher Chaltain

Oh of course! I was thinking of some special hot key in the email client.

BTW, control+shit+up-arrow only selects the previous line for me. I use 
control+shift+home to select everything from the current position to the 
top of the document. This is on my PC.


So you're right, if you want to delete that text from the body of the 
message you just use standard editing commands. The ones you mention 
below if you're using a bluetooth keyboard or the pinch gesture and the 
roter if you're using the on screen keyboard.

RE: Questions concerning using email on the iPhone.

2013-07-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Christopher,

If it is Jaws, then Control+Shift+Up Arrow selects the prior paragraph, I
assume if you are underneath a message header this might select all of it
and you can then press Delete to delete it.

Anyhow, Simon, if you want to select text and delete it on an iPhone, you
have to Cut it, i.e. set your rotor to words or lines depending on how much
at a time you want to select, then use the pinch out gesture (put 2 fingers
on the screen and move them apart) to select the text, then turn your rotor
to Edit and flick down to Cut. This will take the selected text out of the
email message and put it on the clipboard, but that's OK as long as yo don't
paste it anywhere.

If you are using a Bluetooth keyboard there are keyboard commands for
selecting text, but since I rarely use a Bluetooth keyboard for anything but
typing, I don't know what they are.

Sieghard

Hi Raul,

I thought BlindSquare uses data for it's maps. I don't recall ever
downloading maps for BlindSquare and if it relies on data then it wouldn't
work with an iPod Touch unless you had a Wi-Fi connection which normally is
not the case when you are walking around. Using an external GPS receiver may
give you a GPS signal, but BlindSquare, Sendero LookAround or Ariadne
wouldn't know what to do with it unless they have access to maps.

Subject: Re: GPS issues - request clarification

Hi, Blindsquare does an ok job of telling you how far you are from the
intersection. It tends to work better if you are walking rather than moving
in a vehicle like a bus or someone's car though. Yes, as far as I know, if
you have an iPod Touch with a compatible GPS it can connect to, then it
should work just fine. I have personally never tried this though.

 Hello,

 Will any of these systems work on i-touch with GPS interface and will 
 they tell how far one is from the intersection?

 Thanks,

 in terms of the streets, I don't care about businesses around me. 
 Now, when I'm more familiar, then I'll usually like knowing what else 
 is there. Ariadne is excellent as well as long as you follow the 
 below suggestions of making sure the app is in the foreground, start 
 monitoring is enabled and you will then get the current location spoken
by Voice Over itself.

 I was wanting something to read me intersections on a bus.  Seigard 
 (sp?) mentioned blind square would do this, and I've found that 
 Ariadne GPS will too, as long as it's open, in the front, and VO is 
 turned on.  The Start Monitoring button is what's needed to 
 activate this feature.  I'm running Ariadne on an iPhone 4 btw.

Re: tap tap see and laundry

2013-07-01 Thread Donna
Hi

Some have have stated that they use TapTap See to get descriptions to pictures 
in their cameraroll. I have tried this with no success. What am I'm doing 
wrong??? I have tried double tapping a picture af opening it after voiceover 
announces the date that that the picture was taken. I have also tried tapping 
and hold to get a description of a picture, nothing. 

Any suggestions?

   Hi, Alan. I only have a couple of Kindle books but they are on my PC 
with
 azw extensions and one is 15MB and the other is 26MB. I assume this is 
their

 original and complete format so I'm not really sure what you mean. The
 filenames are a bit cryptic since they contain no title but just a book
 number. I don't disagree with your assessment of the Kindle for PC program
 but it seems once you've downloaded it, Amazon keeps track of that and 
gives
 you the option to save a new Kindle purchase to either your iDevice or 
your

 PC. At least it did for me.

 you keep it on your computer and back it up to DVDEs in the origenal

 Actually, if you have the Kindle for PC program installed, Amazon 
should
 give you an option to download the Kindle book to your PC or your iDevice. 
I

 have a folder called My Kindle Content that has Kindle books in it. Of
 course, they are named with numbers so you can't tell what they are by

 What I don't like about the Kindle app is, your books get stored in 
the
 Kindle cloud.  You can either store them on your device or in the cloud 
but
 you cannot store them on your computer.  That means you cannot copy them 
to

 your external hard drive.  The cloud is fine as long as you have access to
 it.

from list members and clicked on the report a link in itunes and wrote to them, 
let's see what happends with this.  If it doesn't work I will defenately try 
the applevis instructions.
I thank you so much for your help.
I just want to add that it's very sad when so many wonderful developers work so 
hard to provide accessibility for blind people that there are a few bad apples 
who claim to do something but in the end just take your money for nothing.

I tried claiming a refund that way once and nothing ever happened.

 

Applevis has an article on this, but it's essentially the same as using that 
Report a Problem link in the purchase receipt email, so I don't know how well 
it will work, here is the link:

 

http://www.applevis.com/guides/obtaining-refund-inaccessible-apps

 

If reporting the issue doesn't work, you could always try and call Apple 
Accessibility and ask if they can help. Phone number is 1-877-204-3930.

Zoe,

 

You can also get a refund from your receipt that comes in your email. It will 
say a receipt number. In here there is a report a problem link.

Hi listers,

as the subject says I'm so frustrated, I'm all most in tears.

A while back I was at the university of waterloo in Ontario Canada, and some 
one demonstrated the zoomreader app to me to help me read boxes and cans 
amongst other things.  At the time I thought as soon as I could afford it I 
definitely would invest in this app.  A few days ago my husband got me an app 
store card.  By now there was a lot of apps I wanted since I laid my eyes on 
zoomreader back in February.  Since zoomreader is $20.00 and that was the full 
amount of the card, I decided to get some other things I wanted and get the 
zoomreader another time.  I got the sluzzle game and abbyy text grabber and 
translator, and so far I am really happy with the purchases I made.  I also 
wanted to get a portable cctv in February because that was also demonstrated to 
me at the University but they are very expensive, and this morning I was 
browsing the via app and I clicked on cctv and magnification and came across an 
app called seeit, and after reading the description decided to get it, here is 
where my frustration starts.

The app comes with an invert feature which works just fine, it makes the page 
black with white text which is the only way my eyes can actually see printed 
material.  The app is pretty straight forward, there is a flash light button on 
the top right hand corner of the screen.  At the bottom there is a normal 
button, color button, an invert button and a resume/pause button.  The app when 
you open it basically automatically opens your video camera using the rear 
facing camera.  Right above these buttons is a long bar that if you swipe up 
and down it's suppose to zoom the screen.  All buttons work with voiceover.  I 
placed a cd cover on a white counter background and low and behold in the 
middle of the screen there is a black square with white lines on it.  I try 
zooming it but nothing.  When I move the camera close to the document the white 
lines become large blurry peaces of text.  I let the I phone stand still for it 
to autofocus and maybe that will clear up the text, but nothing.  I tried with 
regular color but nothing, I tried with the flash light on and off but nothing. 
 I let my fully sighted husband try the app, and guess what?  

he couldn't get the text clear unless he had it at it's smallest zoom level and 
even then he had to wear his glasses to read the print.  The app has a problem 
zooming and auto focusing and it doesn't replace thousand dollar portable 
cctv's as the seller describes on the app store.  I just wasted seven dollars 
from my gift card which could have went somewhere else to give me accessibility 
in another app to make my life easier.

I contacted apple and they told me they could not help me with support because 
I bought my I phone a year ago and I was not entitled to support unless I paid 
$35.00 then I told the lady that it was regarding the app store, an app that 
doesn't stand up to it's description, and that who do

BlindSquare does rely on data. In addition, I use it on a regular basis on the 
bus and the intersections are announced as they are past. I find it to be a 
very reliable option while traveling on the bus.

 Hi Raul,
 
 I thought BlindSquare uses data for it's maps. I don't recall ever
 downloading maps for BlindSquare and if it relies on data then it wouldn't
 work with an iPod Touch unless you had a Wi-Fi connection which normally is
 not the case when you are walking around. Using an external GPS receiver may
 give you a GPS signal, but BlindSquare, Sendero LookAround or Ariadne
 wouldn't know what to do with it unless they have access to maps.

 Hi, Blindsquare does an ok job of telling you how far you are from the
 intersection. It tends to work better if you are walking rather than moving
 in a vehicle like a bus or someone's car though. Yes, as far as I know, if
 you have an iPod Touch with a compatible GPS it can connect to, then it
 should work just fine. I have personally never tried this though.

Re: Converting podcast listening from Itunes to Downcast

2013-07-01 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Tom,

If you don't have the sidebar up, go to the View menu and choose Show Sidebar, 
or press Command-Option-S on a Mac; I think the command is Control-S in 
Windows. If you use a Mac, interact with the sidebar. Find Podcasts, and press 
the Context menu key, which is VO-Shift-M on a Mac, context key or Shift-F10 in 
Windows. The first choice is Export; press Enter on this choice. a Save As box 
comes up; use it to choose the filename and where you want to save the file.

Once you have the file, email it to yourself and then check mail on your 
iPHone. Double-tap on the attachment, and choose to open it in Downcast.

Best,
Anna

Deleting podcast episodes in DownCast

2013-07-01 Thread Wayne Merritt
Greetings. Using the latest version of DownCast, does anyone know if
there is a way to delete individual podcast episodes? For instance, if
I am listening to Cool Blind Tech, and have listened to podcast 49,
can I delete it from the list of available podcasts in the Cool Blind
Tech area? It would be great if this were possible, to clear out what
has been listened to and shorten the list of available podcasts. Using
the latest of Downcast on an iPhone 5 wiht iOS 6.1.4.

Hi Wayne, 

The answer is yes and I will give you the directions below to accomplish
this. 

1. Open Downcast.
2. Find the podcast name that you want to open and double-tap on it. 
3. In the lower left-hand corner, there will be an edit button. Double-tap
on it. All of the podcasts that have been downloaded are listed there. 
4. Find the podcast that you want to delete. Double-tap on it and it will be
selected. Repeat this process for any other podcasts that you want to
delete. 
5. The second button from the left (next to done) is the action button.
Double-tap on that. 
6. When the next screen opens, it will say, Delete Episodes Button.
Double-tap  on this and the episodes are deleted. You are then returned to
the main screen for that particular podcast listing the other podcasts that
are left in your list. HTH.

Re: Deleting podcast episodes in DownCast

Okay, great, thanks. One question, can these same steps be done for
podcasts that you have elected to stream, but do not want to listen
to? For instance, the podcasts that I frequently listen to, I have
chosen to download, but others that I don't listen to very often I
stream. Can I delete the streaming podcasts from the list? Not sure
why the edit button never occurred to me before. I guess since I
couldn't find an action menu, as appears in other parts of iOS 6, I
got confused.

Thanks again,

Re: VoiceBook?

Penny, uninstall the app and reinstall it and see if that helps.

Subject: VoiceBook?

Is anyone else having problems with VoiceBook?  It won't move  away
from the Refreshing data from Facebook screen.  I have re-booted the
phone, closed and re-opened the app several times and am at a loss as
to what else to do.

I really like the efficiency this app lends to looking at FB quickly,
as well as the accessibility of performing various actions.  I know it
doesn't do everything, but I am certainly missing what it does usually
do!

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Re: Deleting podcast episodes in DownCast

2013-07-01 Thread ROBERT CARTER
Hi,

You can delete an individual podcast episode in Downcast by focusing on the 
name of the episode double-tap and hold the second tap until you hear three 
small clicks. You then do a one finger flick to the right and there will be a 
delete button as well as a few other options.

 I have been working with this app most of the day to learn how to do things,
 and I must say that its features are amazing!!
 It does a lot more than just post to Twitter, facebook, and send text
 messages!
 
 The command structure built into this app is brilliant, and can enable even
 more feature intergrations later in the future.
 But even more amazing than to send tweets, facebook post, text messages, and
 emails directly from the app, is its editing features!
 
 The editing features basically turn it into a small braille note pad.
 You can browse what you have typed by sentence, word,or character.
 You can move the cursor to anywhere you want in the document and add words,
 delete words, or change things however you want.
 You can even move the cursor to a point in the document and paste something
 that came from another app, like a link from Safari or an email.
 
 Now you can also select by characters, words, or sentences.  After you have
 selected text, you can then copy or cut the text from your document and move
 it to where ever you want.
 And even with all of these features and abilities, this does not include the
 fact that it is capable of contracted grade 2 braille!
 
 Now, lets consider the price?
 
 Lets all remember that Braille Touch was $20, and even though it is a good
 app, it comes no where near being filled with all of the features of
 MBraille!
 So do I think all of those extra features of MBraille is worth ten more
 dollars? You bet!
 I have been waiting for an app like this, and I am just so proud that we
 finally have it!

 First of all, my apologies to your guide dog. That must have been a hard 
 thing to swallow for him. *smile* But in all seriousness, I'm happy that 
 you're finding TapTapSee to be more and more useful with every day. The 
 laundry use of the app as a color sorting tool you mentioned is a good use 
 case that we'll have to take a look into. We'll have to see why the 
 identifications don't come back to you with the proper tags. However, as 
 you mentioned, the lighting of the facility may be part of the reason for 
 the inconsistent results. Nevertheless, we'll take a further look into our 
 system and see if we can improve this issue. Thank you for proving us with 
 your feedback and experiences.
 Thank you,
 Dmitriy

 Hi. 
 Keep up the good database work it is really becoming more and more 
 useful the more things it can identify reliably and we use it to 
 identify cans and boxes that we cannot identify by touch alone. The 
 more products that can be easily identified the better in our opinion. 
 We have however, not had such good luck with using it as a laundry 
 sorting tool the color identification seem not to be that great, 
 though lighting and the 4s camera can be part of the problem here. 
 One day I was standing waiting for the bus and I just took a random 
 picture of the approaching bus, it did not identify the busline sadly 
 but told me there was a man with a blue jacket in front of me which 
 turned out to be true when asked. The man was abit baffled when I 
 approached him but well after telling him the background he found the 
 thing we could use our iPhone for very cool. 
 Best regards, Jesper. 
 Ps. My Guide dog is very displeased with the app though, since it once 
 identified his fron paw as a cat's paw, very humiliating and 
 degrading! *smiles*

Re: TapTapSee Feedback

2013-07-01 Thread dmit...@taptapseeapp.com
Pinky,

TapTapSee is a free app designed to help the blind and visually impaired 
identify objects they encounter in their daily lives. Simply double tap the 
screen to take a photo of anything and hear the app speak the 
identification back to you (Note: Spoken identification requires VoiceOver 
to be turned on).

When you first open TapTapSee a Privacy Notice pops up that needs to be 
accepted for you to use the app. Once it's accepted you're taken into the 
app, which consists of a camera and four buttons at the top of the screen - 
Repeat, Library, Share and About.


To take a picture simply double tap on the screen and wait for the 
identification to come back to you. This will take seven to 10 seconds, 
depending on your network connection. The image gets sent out to our server 
where it is processed and then given a tag that is sent back to the user's 
device. The VoiceOver in the device speaks the identification back to the 
user.


TapTapSee also includes the following four features:


The Repeat button was developed in case the identification was missed by 
the user on the initial response.


The Library button allows the user to access the device's Camera Roll in 
order to send images to TapTapSee for identification. To access this 
feature simply click on the Library Button and then proceed to select an 
image that you want to have identified from the Camera Roll (Note: If 
access to the Camera Roll is denied then the Privacy Settings must be 
changed on the device).


The Share button gives the user the ability to Share the image via Email, 
Twitter or Facebook. The Share button also includes the option for the user 
to save the image to the device's Camera Roll and more.


TapTapSee gives users a general identification of the images. However, if 
for example, the user takes a picture of a can of soup and wants to know 
the name of the brand, the application will be able to read the label and 
return the identification with the brand name. Nevertheless, keep in mind 
that TapTapSee will only be able to recognize the objects that are within 
the camera's scope. Sometimes it take a bit of playing around with 
TapTapSee to get the desired identification.


TapTapSee also has a Focus notification sound that can be turned ON and OFF 
as desired in the About screen. Once an object comes into focus, the app 
makes a sound to notify the user that it's in the optimal position to take 
a photograph.


TapTapSee gives the user the ability to take up to three images at a time 
to be identified. However, the total amount of images taken for 
identification are unlimited.


Please let me know if you have anymore questions.


Best,

Dmitriy

RE: goggles problem

2013-07-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Eileen,

Don't worry, I doubt Alan's version is working now any more since this is an
issue with google not allowing apps which are installed on iOS devices to
access certain data and I assume Alan said his is working because maybe he
hasn't used it in the last week or so. At first I said it was working fine
because when I saw the first messages about this it seemed like I had just
used it a couple of days before and it worked and sometimes it's easy to
forget that it's been a week since you used a certain app. Lois confirmed
that her 1.3 version isn't working either and while the developer replied to
her saying they are aware of the issue and are working on it, the reply I
received and which I posted specifically stated it was a problem with
Google. I don't know exactly how Goggle gets it's information, but obviously
it has something to do with Google so until they resolve that I guess we are
all in the same boat. If it turns out it won't work at all any more then I
guess the world will continue to revolve around the sun and we have to jump
ship so to speak and utilize other apps although for some things Talking
Goggles was excellent.


Regards,
Sieghard

RE: How to Determine App Version from iDevice?

Hi Alan,

 

Christopher's suggestion is one option, however, like most computer
programs, most apps do have an About section somewhere (sometimes under
Help, or Support or under More or in the Settings area of an app if said
app has a Settings area. One can usually find the app version there.

RE: Deleting podcast episodes in DownCast

2013-07-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Eileen,

Alternatively, you can double tap on Edit when you are where you see the
list of episodes of a particular Podcast. Now you can double tap each
episode you want to delete and it will be selected, then double tap on
Actions which is just above the home key, now double tap Delete and
confirm that you want to delete. I have to try Robert's method if it's just
one episode, ut if you want to delete 2 or 3 episodes this method of going
through Edit and Actions is pretty good as well.

I have asked the developer of Downcast a couple of times if he plans to
implement deleting via the Action rotor so that all you would have to do is
flick down on an episode to change the Action rotor to Delete and then
double tap to delete it, but so far he replied and said he had trouble
finding the information from Apple as to how to program this. Hopefully
eventually he will manage to implement this since I love this gesture for
deleting emails, text message conversations etc.

Sieghard

Hi,

You can delete an individual podcast episode in Downcast by focusing on the
name of the episode double-tap and hold the second tap until you hear three
small clicks. You then do a one finger flick to the right and there will be
a delete button as well as a few other options.

RE: Deleting podcast episodes in DownCast

Hi Eileen,

Alternatively, you can double tap on Edit when you are where you see the
list of episodes of a particular Podcast. Now you can double tap each
episode you want to delete and it will be selected, then double tap on
Actions which is just above the home key, now double tap Delete and
confirm that you want to delete. I have to try Robert's method if it's just
one episode, ut if you want to delete 2 or 3 episodes this method of going
through Edit and Actions is pretty good as well.

I have asked the developer of Downcast a couple of times if he plans to
implement deleting via the Action rotor so that all you would have to do is
flick down on an episode to change the Action rotor to Delete and then
double tap to delete it, but so far he replied and said he had trouble
finding the information from Apple as to how to program this. Hopefully
eventually he will manage to implement this since I love this gesture for
deleting emails, text message conversations etc.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hi,

You can delete an individual podcast episode in Downcast by focusing on the
name of the episode double-tap and hold the second tap until you hear three
small clicks. You then do a one finger flick to the right and there will be
a delete button as well as a few other options.

 Greetings. Using the latest version of DownCast, does anyone know if 
 there is a way to delete individual podcast episodes? For instance, if 
 I am listening to Cool Blind Tech, and have listened to podcast 49, 
 can I delete it from the list of available podcasts in the Cool Blind 
 Tech area? It would be great if this were possible, to clear out what 
 has been listened to and shorten the list of available podcasts. Using 
 the latest of Downcast on an iPhone 5 wiht iOS 6.1.4.

Unable to Roll Back Talking Goggels Version

2013-07-01 Thread Alan Lemly
I hope someone has a suggestion on how to get the previous version 1.3 of
Talking Goggles back on my iPhone 5. I keep backups of all app ipa files
whenever a new version comes out. I've gone through the steps of removing
Talking Goggles 1.4 from my phone, removing it from iTunes, copying the 1.3
ipa file to the Automatically Add to iTunes folder, and then re-syncing my
phone to itunes. However, after having done this about 4 times now, every
time I check the Goggles version from within the Purchased Header of the
Apps Store Update, it is listed as version 1.4. I'm perplexed why this is
not working.

 

I followed the same steps as above when rolling back the Facebook app from
version 6.3 to version 6.2 and it is listed with version 6.2 in the
Purchased Apps section of my phone plus it shows as having an update
available on the updates screen. Talking Goggles doesn't show as having an
update so I'm assuming version 1.4 the latest keeps being reinstalled.

 

Any suggestions on how to get the old app installed on my phone from one of
you experts? Thanks in advance.

 

Alan Lemly

RE: goggles problem

2013-07-01 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hi Sieghar, 

I have to agree with you that Talking Goggles worked terrifically when JAWS
or WE stopped working and I needed to trouble shoot the monitor to see what
Windows was screaming about. Oh well!!! There is always VizWiz and TapTapSee
to fall back on, as well as using Skyping a friend. I'll just have to get
creative or wait for my husband for sighted assistance, but it is so nice to
not be dependent  upon others to perform simple tasks.

Subject: RE: goggles problem

Hi Eileen,

Don't worry, I doubt Alan's version is working now any more since this is an
issue with google not allowing apps which are installed on iOS devices to
access certain data and I assume Alan said his is working because maybe he
hasn't used it in the last week or so. At first I said it was working fine
because when I saw the first messages about this it seemed like I had just
used it a couple of days before and it worked and sometimes it's easy to
forget that it's been a week since you used a certain app. Lois confirmed
that her 1.3 version isn't working either and while the developer replied to
her saying they are aware of the issue and are working on it, the reply I
received and which I posted specifically stated it was a problem with
Google. I don't know exactly how Goggle gets it's information, but obviously
it has something to do with Google so until they resolve that I guess we are
all in the same boat. If it turns out it won't work at all any more then I
guess the world will continue to revolve around the sun and we have to jump
ship so to speak and utilize other apps although for some things Talking
Goggles was excellent.

RE: RE: Questions concerning using email on the iPhone.

2013-07-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Mario,

Might I ask how you would suggest this can be improved? What gestures would
you like to see for selecting text and are there other touch screen devices
which offer a better experience? I guess I should rephrase this, do Android
phones offer a more user friendly experience when it comes to selecting text
since to my knowledge those are the only other somewhat accessible touch
screen devices out there? I have never used an Android device so forgive my
ignorance, but is selecting text and copy/cut/paste even accessible for a
blind user on an Android phone?

With a bit of practice I find it relatively easy to set my rotor to lines
and then use multiple pinch out gestures one after another to select a fair
bit of text. When you are talking about hundreds of lines then sure, I agree
that this would be a challenge, but then again I do have a computer and
while my iPhone is awesome and I can do lots of things with it, some things
are still done more efficiently on the computer and I would hazard a guess
and say that this holds true even for sighted people.


Regards,
Sieghard

I'm looking for something fun, that has a lot of good sound affects as
you're playing the game. I've tried playing some text games, but really
can't get into them. 
Thanks, Shane.

how to find the Sendero Seeing Eye GPS app?

2013-07-01 Thread Eileens Misrahi
Hello,

I was going through my tweets and there was a tweet for Sendero Seeing Eye GPS. 
I did check the app store, but I couldn't get a listing. Has anyone been able 
to download it to there iPhone yet? I am curious what people think about it and 
is it really worth the dollars70 for a 1 year subscription and dollars130 for a 
3 year subscription? I know that there have been several individuals that have 
been waiting for the app to be released. The pricing has always been a mystery 
until now. Since I have Sendero on my Apex, I'm on the fence if I will indulge.
