I had that calm radio on my computer and I paid way too much for a subscription

transfer the Calm radio full version to my i device because it's fully paid.  
There is a free version that is quite nice; but the full version is really 
super, for it has nature sounds that i do not think are in the free one; but I 
may be wrong about that.
All that above to say this: I now have the iPod recording 75 minutes of dolphin 
sounds for a friend who would like a cd of dolphins.  Yep, we can accommodate 
that.
Another note: I am seeing names on this list that I have not seen in years.  
It's almost a class reunion or family reunion to see so many familiar handles.  
I imagine some of you feel the same as I.

Bump App

2013-07-08 Thread Traci Duncan
Has anyone here used the bump app?  It is for sharing information between 
phones that have the app.  Photos, files, contact info, etc.

Both users need to have the app open, hold your phone, and gently but firmly 
bump hands.  It is pretty cool!  There are some unlabeled buttons.

The best part is, it is available for both Android & iPhone.  An Android can 
bump an iPhone and vice versa.

Enjoy,
Traci

Re: Text Grabber & Prizmo

2013-07-08 Thread David Chittenden
The best way to find out current cost for any app is to open the App Store, 
double-tap on search on the bottom, double-tap on the edit field at the top, 
type the name of the app, and double-tap search in the lower right corner of 
the keyboard, or press the return/enter key on the bluetooth keyboard. The 
price that appears is the current price of the app.

Hi.

 

I called AT&T to unlock my iPhone.  I was told I needed some sort of number
which is located somewhere around the sim card.  Where is this, and what is
it?  Also, if I need to remove the sim card for this how do I do this?

 

Thanks in advance.

Re: external battery for the iPhone 4S

2013-07-08 Thread Mike Arrigo
The most protective cases are probably the otter box, but they are too 
hard to work with, I tend to swap my sim card between my iphone and my 
android phones quite a bit, so I need something that I can take apart 
fairly quickly. The juice pack does make the phone a bit thicker, but 
the extra power is well worth that, I don't need to have the smallest device.

Original message:
The Mophing Helium is lighter and I believe charges the longest now. It 
does not add a lot to the weight or bulk up the phone and does at 
protection, other than the screen. I think I am getting  two extra 
charges from it.

2013-07-08 Thread Mike Arrigo
I prefer unlocked phones too, GSM is much more flexible since your account 
information is stored on the sim card, and this can easily be moved to 
different phones. This is why I don't like CDMA carriers like verizon and 
sprint.

Netatmo battery placement, was: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello again,

 

OK, I checked all 3 modules and the battery placement is consistent except
that the main indoor module which usually should be plugged in using the
included wall adapter and USB cable has 4 Double A batteries as backup power
and the outdoor module and new indoor module use 4 Triple A Batteries.

 

Here is how to put the batteries in correctly:

 

Open the end cap with a large coin, you usually can open it also by putting
the ball of your hand on it, push down a bit and turn.

Hold the station vertically in front of you so the opening is pointing up.

Turn the station so the 2 holes where the batteries go (2 in each hole) are
away from you, sort of in the 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock position.

Put 2 batteries into the left hole (11 o'clock) with the knobby thing down
so the smooth end of the battery is up.

Put the other 2 batteries into the right hole (1 o'clock) so the knobby on
the battery is facing up.

Replace the end cap and turn it until it locks.

 

 

Hope this makes sense.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

That or be able to do a double tap and hold to bring up the delete prompt

Hi Ketan,

 

Double tap on a Podcast so that you are where you see all the episodes.

Now double tap on “Edit” at the bottom left of the screen

Now double tap each episode you want to delete and Voiceover will tell you
it is “Selected”

Now double tap on “Actions” right above the home key

>From the menu that pops up select delete and confirm when prompted.

 

I wish the developer of Downcast would be able to figure out how to
implement the Action rotor which would allow you to just swipe up or down on
an episode and double tap to delete just as you can do with emails.

 

 

Good luck,

will update with downloads ready for download and then I go down the list

RE: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Sean Paul,

 

I think I'll make a little distribution list in Outlook with people I know
have the weather station or are interested and that way I can easily post to
the group as well as to that group of people which means it is less likely
to miss one of my posts. In any case, I will definitely let the list know
when the additional sensors become available although even now as it is the
Weather Station is very good, support for the additional indoor modules will
most likely not take long and I guess one advantage of buying a station with
just an extra indoor module is that you don't have to come up with all the
money at once, it's not a cheap accessory. On the other hand you can also
spend several hundreds of Dollars on a really good wireless weather station
which only has the outdoor sensors and an indoor station with a LCD screen
which of course isn't accessible and also is not accessible for a sighted
person unless they are standing in front of it.

 

I think Netatmo has a good thing going and as far as I know nobody else has
yet come out with a competitive product.

 

If anybody wants direct news about this let me know and I'll put you in my
Netatmo email list. You can, of course, also sign up to receive a newsletter
from Netatmo directly by going to the following link:

 

http://blog.netatmo.com

 

Just go to the second edit field, fill in your email and click "Subscribe".

Subject: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

 

Hello Netatmo users,

 

I just wanted to send a brief update for those who bought a Netatmo Weater
Station.

 

If you read my last message you are aware of the fact that Netatmo is now
offering additional indoor modules for $79. I received one of these which I
put in my basement after pairing it with my station. The pairing process was
easy, fully accessible and I am including a detailed step-by-step
description at the end of the message since this will only be of interest
for those who have a station and are planning to buy an extra module or
modules.

 

I would like to point out that for the next couple of weeks the additional
module will not be of much use to a Voiceover user since the measurements it
provides are not yet accessible with Voiceover. I just received a message
from Netatmo's head developer, Carlos, and he said he will work on this and
send me a Beta version to check out what he has done shortly. If my past
experience is an indicator I would expect he will do this quite quickly and
I will let everybody know, of course after I give him my feedback he still
has to release an official update with those changes.

 

Neil had asuggested that it would be good if the Weather Station could
include pollen count and Carlos told me that this is something they will be
looking at further on down the road. I believe this year they are busy with
getting 2 more sensors released, a rain sensor and a wind speed sensor. Once
these 2 add-ons are available the Netatmo Weather Station will be as good as
just about anything that is out there but of course its other features like
being able to check the readings from anywhere in the world via the app make
it even better.

 

OK, here now the description/instruction regarding the pairing process:

 

Double tap on the Menu button at the top left, it becomes a Settings button,
double tap on that.

It will take a moment for the Settings menu to load since I believe it
accesses information online.

Now double tap on My Stations.

Double tap on Add/Remove a Module

On the screen that appears you will see a heading called "Setup" at the top
and a "Next" button to the right, double tap on that.

You now will find the following text: Please plug in the Netatmo Station's
big module, double tap "Next" once again at the top right.

Voiceover will now say : Touch and hold the top of the station for 10
seconds. After you do that, double tap "Next"

If you explore the screen, Voiceover will read "Your station is powering up,
please wait".

You should hear a tone, and you will find "Please select an accessory".

The choices are: "Netatmo" and "Cancel", double tap on Netatmo.

Now you find: Congratulations, you will now be able to add modules to your
station or remove them. Double tap on "Next" at the top right again.

On the next screen you have a heading called "Modules" at the top and a
"Done" button to the right of that.

Have a sighted person read it on your recorder and then braille it onto a peace 
of Dymo Labeling tape and stick it on the bottom of the speaker so it'll last a 
long time and you won't lose it.  Usually it's just 4 digits.

  Hi, Traci.

  Just looking at Amazon and yes, this speaker does sound really cute, I'm 
  thinking of the strawberry myself.  

  I can't tell from the reviews and the product description if this is a 
  stereo speaker or if I'll need to buy two of them to get a stereo sound.

  Also, how easy was it to pair?  They say the pairing code is on the bottom 
  of the speaker, so not sure how doable this will be for me since I can't see 
  the code.

  TIA

  I'm a little bit crazy over the hdmx jam speakers.  The classic model, which 
  is what I own 2 of, can usually be found for around $35.  Up front, I have 
  to say, I like this speaker so much because it is darn adorable.  Lol!

  That aside, it works brilliantly!  If you are strictly using it for 
  bluetooth, there might be better options out there.  I believe it only gets 
  4 hours of battery life using bluetooth.  I haven't tested this much.

  I primarily use it via a 3.5mm cable.  It is suppose to get 12 hours of 
  battery life this way, but I swear it goes way beyond that mark.  I use it 
  with my touch, iPhone, shuffle, and I have a book sense player.  It works 
  great for all of them.

  I love the packaging of this product.  It looks like a little jam jar; 
  perfect for travel.  The base of the unit is rubbery, so it stays in put 
  nicely.  There is a switch on the bottom for on/off.  Around the lower rim 
  of the unit, there is mini USB port for charging, 3.5MM port, volume down, 
  pause/play, & volume up.

  Hope that was helpful!

RE: Questions about Downcast

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Ketan,

 

Double tap on a Podcast so that you are where you see all the episodes.

Now double tap on “Edit” at the bottom left of the screen

Now double tap each episode you want to delete and Voiceover will tell you
it is “Selected”

Now double tap on “Actions” right above the home key

>From the menu that pops up select delete and confirm when prompted.

 

I wish the developer of Downcast would be able to figure out how to
implement the Action rotor which would allow you to just swipe up or down on
an episode and double tap to delete just as you can do with emails.

 

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

Unlocking typically refers to allowing the phone to use SIM cards from 
other carriers. This only applies to GSM phones, so it wouldn't apply to a 
Verison phone.


You can unlock a Verison phone, but there's no guarantee that another 
carrier will let you use it on their network. CDMA phones are locked based 
on a carriers database and not the SIM card.

I'm not sure what I want to do yet.  If the Treker Breeze does the same
things the Seeing Eye app does, it may be an option.  As for using
another carrier besides AT&T, is that possible with my iPhone, which
used to be with AT&T.  I also should have mentioned that I was outside

RE: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Keith,

 

Sorry, it just means to make sure your main module is plugged in with USB
power to the wall adapter which is the suggested way to use it. It does also
have 4 Triple A batteries, but they are meant as backup power in case of a
power outage.

 

I also just realized that |I never did explain how the batteries need to go
in, well, I did actually explain it in one of my much earlier posts, but not
in this last one. I meant to open up the new indoor module just to make sure
I don't say it wrong and then add that in, but I sent the message and
totally forgot. I'll send another message with that information when I get
home a bit later.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Thanks, Sieghard.

 

What is meant by "Plug in the Netatmo Station's big module"? Does this mean
to USB connect the main station to the PC?

 

This info is very helpful. Once I hear from you the data from the accessory
module is read by VO, I'll be buying 2 modules.

Subject: iApp Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

 

Hello Netatmo users,

 

I just wanted to send a brief update for those who bought a Netatmo Weater
Station.

 

If you read my last message you are aware of the fact that Netatmo is now
offering additional indoor modules for $79. I received one of these which I
put in my basement after pairing it with my station. The pairing process was
easy, fully accessible and I am including a detailed step-by-step
description at the end of the message since this will only be of interest
for those who have a station and are planning to buy an extra module or
modules.

 

I would like to point out that for the next couple of weeks the additional
module will not be of much use to a Voiceover user since the measurements it
provides are not yet accessible with Voiceover. I just received a message
from Netatmo's head developer, Carlos, and he said he will work on this and
send me a Beta version to check out what he has done shortly. If my past
experience is an indicator I would expect he will do this quite quickly and
I will let everybody know, of course after I give him my feedback he still
has to release an official update with those changes.

 

Neil had asuggested that it would be good if the Weather Station could
include pollen count and Carlos told me that this is something they will be
looking at further on down the road. I believe this year they are busy with
getting 2 more sensors released, a rain sensor and a wind speed sensor. Once
these 2 add-ons are available the Netatmo Weather Station will be as good as
just about anything that is out there but of course its other features like
being able to check the readings from anywhere in the world via the app make
it even better.

 

OK, here now the description/instruction regarding the pairing process:

 

Double tap on the Menu button at the top left, it becomes a Settings button,
double tap on that.

It will take a moment for the Settings menu to load since I believe it
accesses information online.

Now double tap on My Stations.

Double tap on Add/Remove a Module

On the screen that appears you will see a heading called "Setup" at the top
and a "Next" button to the right, double tap on that.

You now will find the following text: Please plug in the Netatmo Station's
big module, double tap "Next" once again at the top right.

Voiceover will now say : Touch and hold the top of the station for 10
seconds. After you do that, double tap "Next"

If you explore the screen, Voiceover will read "Your station is powering up,
please wait".

You should hear a tone, and you will find "Please select an accessory".

The choices are: "Netatmo" and "Cancel", double tap on Netatmo.

Now you find: Congratulations, you will now be able to add modules to your
station or remove them. Double tap on "Next" at the top right again.

On the next screen you have a heading called "Modules" at the top and a
"Done" button to the right of that.

If you swipe right or explore the screen further you find:

Outdoor Modules

Garden, button: that is of course what it says on my screen since I named my
outdoor module "Garden".

Indoor Modules

New Indoor Module, button: double tap on that.

Now on the next screen it says: Please insert batteries in the module. If
batteries were already inserted, please remove, wait 20 seconds and insert
them.

Find the Next button at the top right and double tap it (after you insert
the batteries of course).

It will now instruct you to "Place the Module near your station", do that
and once again double tap on "Next".

You will now find the following on th

2013-07-08 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Unlocking typically refers to allowing the phone to use SIM cards from 
other carriers. This only applies to GSM phones, so it wouldn't apply to 
a Verison phone.


You can unlock a Verison phone, but there's no guarantee that another 
carrier will let you use it on their network. CDMA phones are locked 
based on a carriers database and not the SIM card.


Here's a web site where you can read more on unlocking your cell phone

Hi Sieghard.

I'm not sure what I want to do yet.  If the Treker Breeze does the same
things the Seeing Eye app does, it may be an option.  As for using
another carrier besides AT&T, is that possible with my iPhone, which
used to be with AT&T.  I also should have mentioned that I was outside

Thunder Space

2013-07-08 Thread SSEric
I read about this thunder storm app on Gizmodo today. It is supposed to have 
3-D thunderstorm sound and flashing lights to simulate lightning. I bought it 
for the sound for $.99. However, I cannot get anything to happen with voiceover.

If anyone else has tried this app, do you have a tip on how I might be able to 
use it. I have not yet been able to ask someone to visualize the screen, so it 
may just be a matter of getting past some opening screens.

Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for the tip on getting back to my place, that works great!
I've done several jumps to specific footnotes and it has worked every time in 
the book I am just finishing.
I use the rotor to get to the line, then set it to words to get on the footnote 
number. 
This is the first book where I've tried looking up footnotes, so I don't know 
if there is any variation from book to book.

Thanks so much guys.

This is why you should never, ever, ever, ever depend entirely on a
GPS solution. Learn your roots and use a GPS only as a backup.

Re: Kindle footnotes

2013-07-08 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
Hi,

Double-tapping just brought me to the menu most of the time. However sometimes 
it worked but it is hit and miss. Any help would be appreciated.

TO go back to your previous location you go to menu and press the "back" 
button. Then, when you exit menu and return to book you should be where you 
left off before jumping to the note.

Still would love to hear about a consistent way of going to footnotes.

Thanks for all your help,


Ioana

Re: In my case, the Seeing Eye GPS app is quite expensive.

Question, if a phone is unlocked, can you use on any carrier? I  am very happy 
with what I have, just  curious.

Hi Kevin,
 
If your contract is done you can contact AT&T for official unlock instructions, 
they are obligated by law to provide them and unlock your phone. Once done your 
iPhone will work with any GSM carrier/SIM like T-Mobile or MVNO’s like Straight 
Talk. T-Mobile might be worth checking into, I am in Canada and only know what 
I hear on the list and on Podcasts like Today in iOS, but I believe they offer 
some less expensive plans. Another advantage of unlocking your phone is that 
even an iPhone 4 when unlocked has a higher resale value and is easier to sell.

Hi Sieghard.
 
I’m not sure what I want to do yet.  If the Treker Breeze does the same things 
the Seeing Eye app does, it may be an option.  As for using another carrier 
besides AT&T, is that possible with my iPhone, which used to be with AT&T.  I 
also should have mentioned that I was outside of my 2 year original contract,

RE: In my case, the Seeing Eye GPS app is quite expensive.

2013-07-08 Thread Ron Pelletier
Hi Les,

 

You certainly can add POI's on the Breeze.  I added about 70 to mine only in
my local area.  Of course, they are announced in my voice but it works just
fine.

 

Just for your information and not to be continued because it is sort of off
topic.

Hi Kevin

 

I own a Trekker Breeze.  It works really well for walking and driving
routes.  It doesn't have the features related to adding POIs, you're stuck
with what they provide.  Typing in addresses is done letter by letter, far
from the dictation capabilities with the iPhone.  While I don't use the
Trekker a lot, I did use it yesterday on a walking route I had saved in my
favorites list, and the Trekker performed really well, announcing my
destination as I arrived.  Good luck.

Case sensitivity and Email addresses [was "Re: Help with keyboard shortcut."]

2013-07-08 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Email addresses are case sensitive, although the domain part is not, but 
most email providers ignore the case of an email address to avoid confusion.


There's usually no reason for people to talk through their hat on the 
list. For example, a Google search quickly leads to 
http://email.about.com/od/emailbehindthescenes/f/email_case_sens.htm 
which authoritatively answers this question.

Sorry Penn.  I think you might.  Didn't know you had a hat, but if you put

Does the capitalizing of a first letter matter in an email address?  i'm
probably wrong about this, but someone told me once that the cap or uncap of
a letter before the at-sign is immaterial.  I'm probably talking through my
hat.

Moderator message about new users - Was Re: Help with keyboard shortcut.

2013-07-08 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hello Donnie. You have the right address. However up until now you were 
moderated. All new users to the list are moderated by default. Once I 
see that the user is a real person who isn't posting off topic messages, 
I will remove the moderation flag. I got a little behind this weekend 
because of things in real life which I was doing. So, this unfortunately 
meant that messages which came in from around Friday and on until today 
were held in the moderation queue. Also, just so you know, replying to a 
message and changing the subject with something totally different is 
hijacking a thread and frowned by many people -- your friendly moderator 
included.

Re: LookTel money reader

2013-07-08 Thread Esther
Hi Richard,

I think the vibration mode was an option for deaf-blind users, but you're 
correct that there are no such options in the current version of the app.  I 
have the older versions of LookTel Money Reader, but I don't think that I can 
use them with the iPhone 5.  I do miss having the tones when the mute switch is 
set on.  And check the AppleVis directory for this app; the last comment is 
from a user who misses the vibration option of an earlier version.

Cheers,

Esther

Re: LookTel money reader

2013-07-08 Thread Esther
Hi,

The vibration feature was available in earlier versions of the LookTel money 
reader release (I think after 1.1 came out in July 2011), but isn't present in 
the latest version of the app with the expanded list of currencies.  You had to 
have the mute switch on.   I liked the fact that you could have your bills 
identified with tones, and kind of miss this feature, which gives more privacy. 
 Still, I suppose it could be confusing if you had bills of different 
currencies, since this only told you the denomination.  If you read the 
comments in the AppleVis app directory entry for this app, you'll find a recent 
entry from someone who states that he misses the vibration and tone options 
from the earlier versions of the app.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Re: In my case, the Seeing Eye GPS app is quite expensive.

I also have t-mobile, they definitely have better rates than at&t.
Original message:

Kevin,



If your contract is over with AT&T, request them to unlock the phone.
I use T-Mobile, another GSM carrier. If you are in an area with good
T-Mobile coverage, consider their basic prepaid plan.  For $30 a
month, I have unlimited data and texts and 100 minutes of voice.  For
more minutes, I use apps like Magic Jack that use the data connection
to make voice calls.



One of the reasons I have stuck with my job as long as I have is the
ability to afford tools that extend my independence like the iPhone
and the Seeing Eye app.

from the dictation capabilities with the iPhone.  While I don't use the
Trekker a lot, I did use it yesterday on a walking route I had saved in my

carrier besides AT&T, is that possible with my iPhone, which used to be
with AT&T.  I also should have mentioned that I was outside of my 2 year
original contract, so it didn’t cost me anything to get rid of the data

Also, most carriers require you to have a data plan these days. And, 
there are lots of things that can be done by having data on your 
device, it would be far too limited without it.

Original message:
Such is the way of life. Some things we can afford and some we can not. 
6 years ago I bought a maestro /Trekker, which was the only GPS 
solution for visually impaired people, and I paid fifteen hundred 
dollars for it.
Now we have a GPS app that only cost seventy dollars a year. Who knows 
what the future may bring.

Hang in there!

Hi.


The following is a combination of a request and an observation. It’s 
not intended as a complaint. It’s just to demonstrate that what’s not 
too expensive for some can be quite expensive in other cases.


My request to Sendero is to have the GPS information stored on the 
iDevice. Earlier this year I canceled my data plan for my iPhone to 
save money. I pay $25 for three months of phone service. If I were to 
reaquire a data plan, my only reason for doing so would be to use the 
Seeing Eye app. For most of you, who already have a data plan, you 
would be spending just for the cost of the app, and your data plan can 
be used for other purposes. In my case, however, the app would cost me 
something like $700, because I’d have to purchase a 2 year contract 
from AT&T, plus the cost of a minimum of a year for the app, and if I 
decide I don’t want the app after the first year, I’m stuck with an 
extra year of data that I probably wouldn’t have gotten in the first place.


That’s my take on things. Again, I’m not complaining, I’m just throwing 
another thought on things. I probably won’t be purchasing the app for a 
while, but I probably will get it, as well as the 2 gig a month data 
plan. I can find other uses for the data besides GPS, so it will be 
worth it for me.



Have a good day, and don’t work too hard.



GO REDS!

Re: external battery for the iPhone 4S

2013-07-08 Thread Mike Arrigo
I got the juice pack helium for my iphone 5, they just released the 
juice pack plus for that phone with a 2100 MA battery too. You could 
also get an external battery pack, I think they have those as high as 
1000 MA, but that would not protect the phone and would be an extra 
item to carry around.

Original message:

I don't know about the longest, but I got a Mophie 2000 mah battery pack
refurbished for $15.00. these can run upwards of $80.00> it's a good little
pack that also protects my 4S. Cheaper than having the battery replaced for
$40 or $50 or so. Quite happy with it.

You should be able to connect an external battery, since this uses the USB

RE: Help with keyboard shortcut.

2013-07-08 Thread Kimmie
Sorry Penn.  I think you might.  Didn't know you had a hat, but if you put
an capital letter in the email address where there isn't one, it won't go
through.  Some email addresses have them, but I haven't struck it, but like
you I'm probably talking through my hat as well. Hehehehe.

Hello from a new member in Saginaw Michigan

2013-07-08 Thread Jerry Mader
Hello folks.
I'm Jerry mader.
I'm in Saginaw Michigan.
I'm new to the I Devices so i may have a lot of questions.
I hope this was the right list to come to, because I have an IPod Touch Fourth 
Generation and i'm using 6.1.3 on my I device.
I'm curious to know, Does VizWiz still work?
I plan to use both Tap See and VizWiz together.
There are times when you do need to ask a specific question and i figure why 
not have both around.
And also the second question is, Can i using the Braille keyboard Braillest, 
input contracted grade two Braille? And can i make this my default keyboard so 
i can always have it pop up when ever a new edit field comes up?
Thanks very much folks.

Re: gps in a vehicle?

2013-07-08 Thread Chris Chaffin


I have had decent results with this with blind square as previously 
mentioned.
But when I do this, I increase the distance blind square is looking, plus 
turn off all announcements except streets.  This cuts down on extra chatter, 
and allows blind square to keep up better.

Hi, blind square does a fairly good job at announcing intersections.
However it will miss some due to the speed at which you travel in while
riding in a vehicle. Ariadne is excellent for announcing the address
ranges as you move, but not as much with intersections, although it has
a very nice explore feature which helps somewhat.

Hello Don, here are the steps to help you get Voice Book working. Number one
go to Facebook, I did this via the and.Facebook.com site. When you get
there, you need to go into your settings, then go into your apps, Find voice
book, and make it so that voice book is no longer allowed on your Facebook.
I hope that part makes sense. Then, number two On your eye device, uninstall
voice book. Be sure both Voicebook and Facebook are out of your app
switcher. Number three reinstall voice book, and follow the directions to
Allow voice book to be an app on your Facebook page. Now, when you try to
use voice book, it might still give you those errors a few more times. But
keep trying after you do all the steps I told you, and it should work. I
hope that wasn't too confusing.

Text Grabber & Prizmo

2013-07-08 Thread Donnie Parrett
How much do these apps cost for an IPhone 4s?  What I would use one the most
for is when I get mail out of our mail box.  I used to have a scanner hooked
to my computer and all I had to do was scan the letter, save it to my
computer, and then I could have JAWS read it to me.  I can't seem to do that
with the new scanner I have, so if I could get something on my phone to do
that, it would be absolutely awesome.  Which one of these apps do you think
would be best for what I need it for?

Re: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

2013-07-08 Thread Sean Paul
Siegard:
Please please let me know when both adicional sensors are avable, I'm very 
interested in getting this whole weather station package.
  - Original Message - 
  From: Sieghard Weitzel 
  To: viphone@googlegroups.com 
  Sent: Monday, July 08, 2013 10:47
  Subject: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules


  Hello Netatmo users,

   

  I just wanted to send a brief update for those who bought a Netatmo Weater 
Station.

   

  If you read my last message you are aware of the fact that Netatmo is now 
offering additional indoor modules for $79. I received one of these which I put 
in my basement after pairing it with my station. The pairing process was easy, 
fully accessible and I am including a detailed step-by-step description at the 
end of the message since this will only be of interest for those who have a 
station and are planning to buy an extra module or modules.

   

  I would like to point out that for the next couple of weeks the additional 
module will not be of much use to a Voiceover user since the measurements it 
provides are not yet accessible with Voiceover. I just received a message from 
Netatmo's head developer, Carlos, and he said he will work on this and send me 
a Beta version to check out what he has done shortly. If my past experience is 
an indicator I would expect he will do this quite quickly and I will let 
everybody know, of course after I give him my feedback he still has to release 
an official update with those changes.

   

  Neil had asuggested that it would be good if the Weather Station could 
include pollen count and Carlos told me that this is something they will be 
looking at further on down the road. I believe this year they are busy with 
getting 2 more sensors released, a rain sensor and a wind speed sensor. Once 
these 2 add-ons are available the Netatmo Weather Station will be as good as 
just about anything that is out there but of course its other features like 
being able to check the readings from anywhere in the world via the app make it 
even better.

   

  OK, here now the description/instruction regarding the pairing process:

   

  Double tap on the Menu button at the top left, it becomes a Settings button, 
double tap on that.

  It will take a moment for the Settings menu to load since I believe it 
accesses information online.

  Now double tap on My Stations.

  Double tap on Add/Remove a Module

  On the screen that appears you will see a heading called "Setup" at the top 
and a "Next" button to the right, double tap on that.

  You now will find the following text: Please plug in the Netatmo Station's 
big module, double tap "Next" once again at the top right.

  Voiceover will now say : Touch and hold the top of the station for 10 
seconds. After you do that, double tap "Next"

  If you explore the screen, Voiceover will read "Your station is powering up, 
please wait".

  You should hear a tone, and you will find "Please select an accessory".

  The choices are: "Netatmo" and "Cancel", double tap on Netatmo.

  Now you find: Congratulations, you will now be able to add modules to your 
station or remove them. Double tap on "Next" at the top right again.

  On the next screen you have a heading called "Modules" at the top and a 
"Done" button to the right of that.

  If you swipe right or explore the screen further you find:

  Outdoor Modules

  Garden, button: that is of course what it says on my screen since I named my 
outdoor module "Garden".

  Indoor Modules

  New Indoor Module, button: double tap on that.

  Now on the next screen it says: Please insert batteries in the module. If 
batteries were already inserted, please remove, wait 20 seconds and insert them.

  Find the Next button at the top right and double tap it (after you insert the 
batteries of course).

  It will now instruct you to "Place the Module near your station", do that and 
once again double tap on "Next".

  You will now find the following on the screen: Modules which is indicated by 
Voiceover as a heading.

  The following is all it says, of course it can take a moment until you get 
the message that it found the new module and for me it did say a couple of 
times that it couldn't find a module at first, but I think the person I asked 
as to how the batteries go in told me to put them in the wrong way and I had to 
experiment. The way I described above is definitely correct.

  In progress.

  The station is looking for the module. 

  Congratulations, the station found a new module.

  New Module, that is a text field and can be edited in the normal way.

  I renamed my new module "Basement" and then double tapped on the "Done" 
button at the top right.

  Now I see the screen again with heading Modules and it lists my outdoor and 
indoor modules.

  Under Outdoor modules I have "Garden" as before.

  Under Indoor Modules I now have "Basement, button" and "New Module" where 
before all I had was "New Module".

Re: Foursquare accessibility

2013-07-08 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Four Square is free and the Four Square app is accessible with 
VoiceOver. It's a way to find out what's around you, where your friends 
are, get tips on the places you visit, get coupons for places you visit, 
let your friends know where you are, get points for places you visit and 
more. To learn more about Four Square, I'd suggest checking out 
https://foursquare.com/about/


GPS systems use the Four Square POI database, but I don't think you have 
to use Four Square to use your GPS apps.


I use Four Square, but I can't tell you if you should use it or not.

RE: gps in a vehicle?

David,


I've found that opening the native Apple Maps and turning Tracking on with
headings will do what you want.  You have to stay in the app for this to
work though.  It works for me very well and timely.  I have LTE so the data
is transfered and updated very quickly.

My question echoes previous posts on this list.

 

While in a moving vehicle, which gps app will tell you what streets you are
crossing as you travel?

 

I downloaded ariadne, it does not do this. It does do a good job for the
road you are on, or turn onto, but does not give info on streets you cross.

 

Apple maps on my Iphone 4s can plan a route, but that's about it.

 

Any advice/suggestions are appreciated.

Hi Shaf,

Yes, it's possible that the Seeing Eye server is down, since I'm also getting 
an unknown error.  I had problems connecting back on the evening of the first 
day I registered the app, after using this during the day (some days ago), but 
everything sorted the next morning, and I haven't had connection problems until 
now.  I'm getting the same "unknown error" message when I launch the app.

UE Boombox identified as a headset but is it really?

Guys

When I pair my UE Boombox it comes up as a Bluetooth headset but I can’t see a 
button on it anywhere to pic up or hang up calls. Does anyone know if iOS is 
just mis-categorising it?

Re: gps in a vehicle?

2013-07-08 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, blind square does a fairly good job at announcing intersections. 
However it will miss some due to the speed at which you travel in while 
riding in a vehicle. Ariadne is excellent for announcing the address 
ranges as you move, but not as much with intersections, although it has 
a very nice explore feature which helps somewhat.

It makes sense to me that a GPS app wouldn't announce street crossing while

RE: Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

2013-07-08 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Thanks, Sieghard.

What is meant by "Plug in the Netatmo Station's big module"? Does this mean to 
USB connect the main station to the PC?

This info is very helpful. Once I hear from you the data from the accessory 
module is read by VO, I'll be buying 2 modules.

Thanks. Keith

Subject: iApp Netatmo update regarding additional indoor modules

Hello Netatmo users,

I just wanted to send a brief update for those who bought a Netatmo Weater 
Station.

If you read my last message you are aware of the fact that Netatmo is now 
offering additional indoor modules for $79. I received one of these which I put 
in my basement after pairing it with my station. The pairing process was easy, 
fully accessible and I am including a detailed step-by-step description at the 
end of the message since this will only be of interest for those who have a 
station and are planning to buy an extra module or modules.

I would like to point out that for the next couple of weeks the additional 
module will not be of much use to a Voiceover user since the measurements it 
provides are not yet accessible with Voiceover. I just received a message from 
Netatmo's head developer, Carlos, and he said he will work on this and send me 
a Beta version to check out what he has done shortly. If my past experience is 
an indicator I would expect he will do this quite quickly and I will let 
everybody know, of course after I give him my feedback he still has to release 
an official update with those changes.

Neil had asuggested that it would be good if the Weather Station could include 
pollen count and Carlos told me that this is something they will be looking at 
further on down the road. I believe this year they are busy with getting 2 more 
sensors released, a rain sensor and a wind speed sensor. Once these 2 add-ons 
are available the Netatmo Weather Station will be as good as just about 
anything that is out there but of course its other features like being able to 
check the readings from anywhere in the world via the app make it even better.

OK, here now the description/instruction regarding the pairing process:

Double tap on the Menu button at the top left, it becomes a Settings button, 
double tap on that.
It will take a moment for the Settings menu to load since I believe it accesses 
information online.
Now double tap on My Stations.
Double tap on Add/Remove a Module
On the screen that appears you will see a heading called "Setup" at the top and 
a "Next" button to the right, double tap on that.
You now will find the following text: Please plug in the Netatmo Station's big 
module, double tap "Next" once again at the top right.
Voiceover will now say : Touch and hold the top of the station for 10 seconds. 
After you do that, double tap "Next"
If you explore the screen, Voiceover will read "Your station is powering up, 
please wait".
You should hear a tone, and you will find "Please select an accessory".
The choices are: "Netatmo" and "Cancel", double tap on Netatmo.
Now you find: Congratulations, you will now be able to add modules to your 
station or remove them. Double tap on "Next" at the top right again.
On the next screen you have a heading called "Modules" at the top and a "Done" 
button to the right of that.
If you swipe right or explore the screen further you find:
Outdoor Modules
Garden, button: that is of course what it says on my screen since I named my 
outdoor module "Garden".
Indoor Modules
New Indoor Module, button: double tap on that.
Now on the next screen it says: Please insert batteries in the module. If 
batteries were already inserted, please remove, wait 20 seconds and insert them.
Find the Next button at the top right and double tap it (after you insert the 
batteries of course).
It will now instruct you to "Place the Module near your station", do that and 
once again double tap on "Next".
You will now find the following on the screen: Modules which is indicated by 
Voiceover as a heading.
The following is all it says, of course it can take a moment until you get the 
message that it found the new module and for me it did say a couple of times 
that it couldn't find a module at first, but I think the person I asked as to 
how the batteries go in told me to put them in the wrong way and I had to 
experiment. The way I described above is definitely correct.
In progress.
The station is looking for the module.
Congratulations, the station found a new module.
New Module, that is a text field and can be edited in the normal way.
I renamed my new module "Basement" and then double tapped on the "Done" button 
at the top right.
Now I see the screen again with heading Modules and it lists my outdoor and 
indoor modules.
Under Outdoor modules I have "Garden" as before.
Under Indoor Modules I now have "Basement, button" and "New Module" where

Re: gps in a vehicle?

2013-07-08 Thread Chuck Dean
In my experiences none of the apps will do this. Seeing Eye app will announce 
streets when you're walking, but if you are over 15 mph it  does not do it.
I believe this is to cut down on continuous chatter.
But, I have not used all the GPS apps, so there may be one that will.

gps in a vehicle?

2013-07-08 Thread David Gross
My question echoes previous posts on this list.

 

While in a moving vehicle, which gps app will tell you what streets you are
crossing as you travel?

 

I downloaded ariadne, it does not do this. It does do a good job for the
road you are on, or turn onto, but does not give info on streets you cross.

 

Apple maps on my Iphone 4s can plan a route, but that's about it.

 

Any advice/suggestions are appreciated.

VoCalc and Mopedi apps?

As subject, I would like to hear comments about VoCalc and Mopedi as apps, 
I'm sure good accessibility is agiven,  so likes, dislikes, tips and 
whatever.  I'll probably buy anyway,  but might as well risk being tempted

Re: Questions about Downcast

When I refresh all my feeds to update, I just find it easiest to then go right 
into the downloads tab and then activate the pause button. My feeds will update 
with downloads ready for download and then I go down the list and delete the 
ones I’m not interested in downloading and then activate the pause button again 
which now says enable. Since I’ve got over sixty feeds, it sometimes takes a 
bit for everything to get updated so I just go do whatever else I want on the 
phone in the meantime.

RE: external battery for the iPhone 4S

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Dan,

Those 2 things are mutually exclusive, there are many batteries with 6000 MA
and more, but you will not find a case with such capacity since it would be
much to bulky. My guess is most cases will be 1800 or 2000 MA and less with
many of them only in the 1000 to 1200 MA range which helps, but it is not
enough to charge your battery if it is down to 20% or less. An iPhone has
around 1430 to 1450 MA depending on the model so a battery must have more in
order to provide one full charge.

I have the MyCharge Peak 6000 which has 6000 MA and hence one would think
that strictly based on the numbers it should charge my iPhone's battery 4
times completely, but in reality it is something like two and a half times.
I assume if you were to turn the phone off and then charge it maybe it would
charge it a bit more, but as the battery charges your phone your phone also
is on and uses up battery power especially if you are using it.

I think you find the most information if you simply look at battery cases
for the iPhone 4S on Amazon and compare the capacity (the value for MA or
Milliamps). You may get a few answers from list members and maybe that is
all you are looking for, but there are many cases out there and Amazon
almost always lists the specs and also you can see the rating and read
reviews.

Sieghard

RE: gps app

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Eric,

 

This certainly does sound more like a GPS reception issue. I would also
recommend not to press the phone right up against your body, the closer it
is to a source of water which your body is the more this can distort your
GPS signal.

RE: iPhone Contacts alternative

2013-07-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Xivan,

 

I doubt you find anything that is more accessible than the contacts app on
the iPhone and with a bit of practice I think you will find that it is super
fast to find contacts.

 

First of all, you can use SIRI to call people and for the most part it works
very well. If you are somewhere you don't want to say who you are calling I
think some of the other suggestions are worth your while to practice.

As Joseph said, there is a search field at the top and if you type even 2 or
3 letters you often narrow the list enough to find who you are looking for
quickly.

What Chris says about using the Contacts tab in the Phone app makes no
difference since it is the same as the actual Contacts app. Having said
this, I rarely go into the Contacts app, it is actually inside my Utilities
folder on my second home page since mostly when I need a contact I want to
either call, email or text them and I can access the contact information
from all of those apps.

Another very efficient way to find people is to use the Table Index. Once
you are in your list of Contacts, touch the very right of the screen.
Voiceover will say "Table Index, Adjustable". You can now either flick down
with one finger on the screen to move to a particular letter of the
alphabet, let's say for example, you want "F", you just flick down 5 times
and at that point you have all your contacts starting with "F" starting at
the top of the screen.

You can also do a double tap and old once you are on the Tavle Index, then
drag your finger down the screen and you can super fast move to a letter
towards the end of the alphabet.

As with all gestures, this does take a bit of practice.

If you do have an iPhone 4S or 5, you can also say "Show Me" followed by a
name in your contacts list and SIRI will display the contact information.
You can double tap on a phone number to call it, double tap on the email
address to start an email etc.

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

 

I find it much accesses the same

It takes many clicks to find someone and then select the way you want to

I just want to make phone calls, and I can't put everyone in the favorites

What contacts app are you guys using?
Is there an accessible alternative to the native app?
