Re: Has anyone upgraded to IOS7 on an iPhone 4?

2013-12-11 Thread Chris H

Hi
no let me re-phrase, i had iOS 7 on my iPhone 4, now sold, it wasn't 
sluggish; just slow at times but usable, i still think the 4s runs much 
better though due to the improved hardware. Regards Chris.

Hi,

I would definitely say it is slower but I also wouldn't qualify it of being
sluggish.  It is quite workable.  I guess it all comes down to the user.

I have heard the IOS 7 is very sluggish on the 4.  I had it on my 4S and it
worked well.  I have since upgraded to the 5s but that was because I plan to
upgrade every 2 years and this was the time.

Phone Drive Add Network Place

2013-12-11 Thread Robert Vaughn
I'm currently running the latest version of Phone Drive on my iPhone 4S and
on my home computer I'm running XP.

From the computer I can connect to Phone Drive using Internet Explorer, but
when I connect through My Network places none of the folders in Phone drive
appear on my computer.

I have shared with other computers on my WiFi, so I'm wondering if it is
something in my phone that isn't set properly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Re: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?

2013-12-11 Thread Lucian Fratila
Honestly I can't think of any other app that with no prior notice pulled 
support from a large chunk of its users (those on iOS 6 in this case).

Yes I have an iPhone 4 and no, I don't want to upgrade to 7 for an obvious 
variety of reasons - and most certainly not because an app forces me to. What I 
find absolutely mind-boggling is that we're talking here about an offline app, 
that worked very well thank you on iOS 6 before.

Yes, I did contact Fleksy support and they simply told me that Fleksy version 
1.9 (the last iOS 6 working version) is not supported anymore. As if they had 
to!

Yes, there are apps that only work on iOS 7 these days. But they either started 
on iOS 7, or they have a backend that no longer supports the iOS 6 version. As 
far as I understand, the technology behind Fleksy is built-in inside the app 
and does not require online presence (heck, if a typing app requires you to be 
connected to their servers, then something is fishy big time).

So in short I find no excusable justification to what Fleksy did. They're lucky 
their service is not high profile and they don't affect a real lot of paying 
users. Just think the backlash that, say, Apple would get if suddenly iTunes 
would no longer start on OS X pre-Mavericks, and would give you no option but 
to upgrade, even on a 2007 laptop. Luckily for them Fleksy is no Apple. But at 
this rate, I don't see them even turning profitable. What a shame when it's not 
the technology that buries you, but poor customer support.

Another way to access MixCloud content via iPhone?

2013-12-11 Thread Tino Wolf
Hi,
 
as you might know, the MixCloud app has always had its problems being 
accessible wit VoiceOver. Now, after the last update, it's nearly 
impossible to use it as a blind. When I have searched for a CloudCast and 
want to open it, the focus always gets back to the sidebar where to choose 
Me, Feed and so on. If I can open it anyway, either the app crashes or 
after loading the CloudCast, nothing happens when hitting the Play button. 
Now, I'm looking for an alternative to Access MixCloud content. Can you 
help me with that? Thanks in advance for your answers.
 
Greetings
 
Tino

Why do you say Google Maps has much to be desired with respect to

A few months ago, I tried using Apple Maps to get to my destination. I 
tried using the name of the business, but Apple Maps wouldn't find my 
destination that way. I tried entering the address directly, but I got 
an invalid address message. I typed the name of the business in Google 
Maps, and it came right up. I've been using Google Maps ever since, and 
I haven't noticed any accessibility issues with it.

I realize my problems with Apple Maps were probably user error, and I 
plan to give it a try again, but I just find Google Maps so accessible 
and so much more intuitive.

I found things work better when I place VO on a piece of information to

vagaries of GPS, I found the margins for turn announcements to be on-par
with other GPS apps. When walking, I did find the announcement that I
arrived was often made right after the 15 metre announcement (I was tracking
remaining distance at the time, but in both cases, the announcement was
within a couple metres of the door. In one case, I already knew where my
destination was located. In the other case, I did not know. As it was a
clear day, I am not surprised about the very high accuracy for the unknown
location. For the known location, as it is a small shop in a long block of
shops, I was pleasantly surprised. I know better than to expect that level
of accuracy all the time. Such expectations are completely unrealistic given
how GPS works. As to rerouting when
 I went off route, well, the bus goes off route regularly. Apple Maps
rerouted quickly and quietly in the background. On my iPhone 5, it was a
complete pleasure to use Apple Maps, now that I have taken plenty of time to
understand how Apple Maps does things. I only hope public transit option is
implemented soon because Google Maps has much to be desired with

 There is an active discussion going on the BrailleNote list where

 Subject: Apex staying paired with IPad and IPhoneBluetooth and 

 I have both an IPad and an IPhone.  I recently got an Apex BT 32. 
 It seems that when I get my apex and IPad finally paired and work 
 with that for a while things go well.  Then, if I try to work 
 with the IPhone after, the switch, I have to pair again.  So, I 
 guess this is not very clear, but I am wondering how to use the 
 apex successfully with both the IPad and the IPhone without 
 having to go through the pairing each time. 
 Should I maybe completely turn off the device I was using with 
 the apex and then let the other device pair on its own?  Or, am I 
 asking too much to be able to use the devices without having to 
 pair each time? 

 Hope my question is clear enough?

 Subject: Re: T mobile users out there, question

 I live in Chicago and use the T-Mobile prepaid $30 a month plan that I
 described in my article on iPhone on the cheap.  I have an iPhone 5 from
 December 2012, before Apple supported the AWS band.  I regularly obtain
 download speeds of 10 Mbps and upload speeds 700 to 900 Kbps.
 Sometimes my upload speeds are one Mbps.  When I visit family in northern
 Indiana, the iPhone falls back to 2G EDGE speeds that are only two to three
 times as fast as a dial-up internet connection.  By next spring or summer,
 T-Mobile said that all cell towers will be refarmed to HSPA+ and/or LTE,
 making this a non-issue.

 Call quality is excellent and very clear.  My calls are much clearer than
 on
 a friend's iPhone 5 with ATT.  With the $30 a month plan T-Mobile says
 that
 five Gb of data is at LTE speeds and speeds are reduced to EDGE when five
 GB
 of data is used in a month.  I listen to iTunes radio, TuneIn and download
 two or three talking books from NLS each month and I don't even chew up one
 megabyte of data.

 Hi again.

 I haven't used the amount where they may throttle back your data
 speed.  I also have a WI-FI hot spot, and I specificly asked them if I
 could get an unlimited data plan for it.  They said I couldn't.  The
 maximum amount of data that I can get for my hot spot is 12 gigs per
 month, which is quite a bit.  They advertise their cell phone data
 plan as unlimited, so that's what I'm assuming, but you know what
 happens when you assume.  I don't download a lot with my iPhone.  I
 listen to iTunes Radio and sports, and that's it.  If I encounter any
 problem with running into a throttle back on my cell phone, I'll call
 them
 up to get a clarification of their so called unlimited plan.

 Here's an update.  I just called up T Mobile, and I specificly asked
 if my cell plan was truly unlimited data, and they said it was.  If,
 however, I used my iPhone as a tethered hot spot, I'm limited to 500
 MB of data using it that way.  Since I have a mobile hot spot I'm not
 going to use my iPhone as a hot spot.

Re: Radium info needed

2013-12-11 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Don,
There is a podcast on the Applevis site. Go there, search for radium, and it 
will be the first result. There's one thing in that podcasts which is not quite 
accurate. That is, you can get the live sports such as NFL. The guy who did the 
podcast was not able to get them but if you have an XM subscription on one of 
their radios, you can get those games. 
If you are specifically interested in at Sam, open radium, open more options, 
then double tap subscriptions. Select XM, and enter your credentials. Then you 
can type sirius into the search box on the main radium screen. And you will see 
a whole lot of listings. It's not like music doc, in that that app had all the 
listings already there for you as I recall. But this has more stations than 
music doc does. 
You can also type things like Russian, which I did and hit over 500 stations. 
Or you can type the call letters of the station. Or you can type a music genre. 
Then when you have your list of stations there is a button to add each to 
favorites and also a play toggle.

 few pointers as to the use of this app.Also, I used to use Music
 Dock, so I would appreciate comments from persons familiar with both apps.
 
 If I remember correctly, there were two apps with the name radium, and
 I got the one called radium perfect.

Looking for an e-mail client that will duplicate Microsoft Exchange filters

2013-12-11 Thread Pranav Lal
Hi all,
For those on the blindphones e-mail list, I have asked this before. I am
asking again since there are more iPhone users here.

My iPhone is synchronized with my e-mail account at work. My employer uses
Microsoft Exchange. I have a few filters in that account. Is there any
e-mail client that will duplicate those filters on the phone? The filters
move messages from various senders into different mail boxes.

strange ipad search findings

2013-12-11 Thread Mary Otten
Hi all,

I still have an old iPad 1 running ios 5. Having heard that audiobooks hq is 
now voice over compatible, I first tried searching for this app in the app 
store on my shiny new iPad mini 2nd gen. The search lets you search for iPad 
only apps or iPhone only apps, but there is on all category as there still is 
on my older iPad when I go for an app store search.

Using the new Mini, my search turned up no hits. Using the old iPad, I got the

Re: sorting fb friends on the iphone question

2013-12-11 Thread Feliciano G
You can do this by accessing M.Facebook.com and then go to the profile of your 
friend then at the bottom it will save managed list. Now if you are using a 
Apple device click on the person's profile then click on the first button with 
the name friends and then it will give you access there also.

35% volume bug

2013-12-11 Thread Mary Otten
I just got bit by the 35% volume bug on my iPad mini. I know I have to go and 
reset something, and I thought I would remember if I flipped around and 
settings. However whatever it is I'm supposed to reset is not coming to me 
right away. Can someone please remind me what it is I need to reset, after 
which I take the volume out of the rotor. I was being so careful. But not

Re: Adding Ibooks To Voice Dream On A Mac Using Mavericks

You can't add iBooks to voice dream, because iBooks have DRM. Voice dream does 
not read anything that has DRM associated with it. If the thing you have an 
iBooks is a PDF file or other non-encrypted thing, then you could add it to 
voice dream.

Re: having problem with dictation

2013-12-11 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, correct me if I'm wrong, but 2-finger double-tap is only used to end 
dictation. to start it, one must double tap the dictate button. So, if 
you or someone is trying to dictate, you don't start with 2-finger 
double-tap. This would have the expected results of playing what ever 
was last being played. it's always worked for me this way.

Google maps - Was Re: Apple Maps

2013-12-11 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, I'm also a Google Maps user for most of my travel needs. The only 
issue I have right now with Google Maps is when you bring up a public 
transit route, it's not reading the bus number I must catch like it used 
to. If there is a setting somewhere to display this, I have not found 
it. Other than that, the app is great.

Why do you say Google Maps has much to be desired with respect to

A few months ago, I tried using Apple Maps to get to my destination. I
tried using the name of the business, but Apple Maps wouldn't find my
destination that way. I tried entering the address directly, but I got
an invalid address message. I typed the name of the business in Google
Maps, and it came right up. I've been using Google Maps ever since, and
I haven't noticed any accessibility issues with it.

I realize my problems with Apple Maps were probably user error, and I
plan to give it a try again, but I just find Google Maps so accessible
and so much more intuitive.

I had fabulous success when I performed a multi-kilometre route

announcements to be on-par with other GPS apps. When walking, I did
find the announcement that I arrived was often made right after the 15
metre announcement (I was tracking remaining distance at the time, but
in both cases, the announcement was within a couple metres of the
door. In one case, I already knew where my destination was located. In
the other case, I did not know. As it was a clear day, I am not
surprised about the very high accuracy for the unknown location. For
the known location, as it is a small shop in a long block of shops, I
was pleasantly surprised. I know better than to expect that level of
accuracy all the time. Such expectations are completely unrealistic
given how GPS works. As to rerouting when

I went off route, well, the bus goes off route regularly. Apple Maps
rerouted quickly and quietly in the background. On my iPhone 5, it was a
complete pleasure to use Apple Maps, now that I have taken plenty of
time to understand how Apple Maps does things. I only hope public
transit option is implemented soon because Google Maps has much to be

The more I play with Apple Maps, the more I like it. I used Apple Maps
earlier to locate new potential places to live. After I got the

street name only) in the search edit field. I then right flick a
couple
times, or slide my finger down the display a little, and I find a
list of
cities. Apple Maps shows me the name of each city and country where
the
address and street is valid. I double-tap on the city I want.

Now, a pop-up window opens. At the top of the display is Directions
Button. One flick right shows the full address in the search field.
After
that is one's current location. Double-tap on directions and one
gets the
choices of driving Button, Walking Button, and Public Transit button.
Double-tap on any of these buttons to select it. Then, double-tap
on Route
Button to take Apple Maps to the next screen.

On this screen, one can start the route, or one can go to the
bottom of
the display and find the Directions Button. Double-tap Directions
to have
the route displayed. The displayed route is excellent, listing
direction
to travel, distance to next point, and direction to turn (left or
right).
At the end, it shows whether the place is on the left or right.

Also in the Start screen is a More Info Button and an Options
button. In
Options, one can add multiple stops to the route, amongst other
options.

Note: Currently Apple Maps does not support public transit
information, so
it brings up GPS apps on the iPhone that support Public Transit.
When I
opened Google Maps, my starting and destination information was
loaded for
me.

For a free option, this is very good. Also, the map screen can be
tactually explored by moving one's finger slowly. Apple Maps
announces the
street one is touching, and can go into tracking mode with sound
cues for
following streets on

Hi,

as you might know, the MixCloud app has always had its problems being 
accessible wit VoiceOver. Now, after the last update, it's nearly impossible to 
use it as a blind. When I have searched for a CloudCast and want to open it, 
the focus always gets back to the sidebar where to choose Me, Feed and so 
on. If I can open it anyway, either the app crashes or after loading the 
CloudCast, nothing happens when hitting the Play button. Now, I'm looking for 
an alternative to Access MixCloud content. Can you help me with that? Thanks in 
advance for your answers.

Greetings

Hi, correct me if I'm wrong, but 2-finger double-tap is only used to end
dictation. to start it, one must double tap the dictate button. So, if
you or someone is trying to dictate, you don't start with 2-finger
double-tap. This would have the expected results of playing what ever
was last being played. it's always worked for me this way.

Mighty boom Buster speaker ball!

2013-12-11 Thread Sandratomkins
Hi,
I've just received, through the post, something I ordered last week. Now, I 
must be honest, I have only played with it for half an hour or so, but, 
considering the price, the size, the portability, this is a brilliant little 
toy! So, what is it?

Basically, it is a small plastic ball measuring approximately an inch and a 
half in diameter. One half of the ball unscrews and shows a sticky rubberised 
pad. This sticky pad can be attached to, virtually, any surface. The ball is 
connected via cable directly to your iPhone. There is a small battery case for 
two I think they are called penlight batteries but will check on that later 
halfway along this cable. Also, when I say iPhone, this device will work with 
any sound output device that has an ear plug Jack so, a nano and iPod and iPad 
or any of the android devices. What it does: it uses the structure of the body 
to which you have attached it as a speaker. Thus, when I stick it to my large 
fridge I get a good big sound with a reasonable degree of base! Wooden 
cupboards are, of course, very good too! You can create different kinds of 
sound using different items, for example, a tin might get you more high-pitched 
frequencies. I was thinking, this might be useful for people with hearing 
difficulties who prefer different frequencies.

It is, of course, a sort of toy! But it actually works! I think it cost about 
€12, but don't quote me on that. This is something you can put in a pocket 
attached to the key ring or put in your bag and you could easily forget that 
you've got it. But you do have to remember to keep the cables and batteries 
with it. I shall play some more, but I was thinking it a worthwhile thing to 
mention here especially with Christmas coming up! It may be that there are 
Bluetooth versions of these which would make it even more portable! But as it 
stands I'm very glad have bought this one for now. Below is the first scan I 
have taken from the small bit of documentation that came with the device. Maybe 
it will whet your appetite? And I will be back with more info, if anyone is 
interested, that is.

Also, in iOS 7, Apple Maps detects whether one is driving or walking by the 
speed one is moving. When I was running it yesterday tracking a route, 
getting on the bus caused it to switch to driving mode. Getting off the bus 
caused it to switch back to walking mode. In walking mode, unless one has 
changed to tracking with headings, the map of the current surrounding area 
is displayed. There is lots of nice bits of information given, but to have 
each bit automatically announced, one must place VO focus on the particular 
bit.

Re: Apple Maps

Yes, Apple Maps is the native Maps app on the iPhone. I think we got 
into the habit of calling it Apple Maps when Apple switched from a 
Google app to it's own app in IOS 6.

Also, in iOS 7, Apple Maps detects whether one is driving or walking by the
speed one is moving. When I was running it yesterday tracking a route,
getting on the bus caused it to switch to driving mode. Getting off the bus
caused it to switch back to walking mode. In walking mode, unless one has
changed to tracking with headings, the map of the current surrounding area
is displayed. There is lots of nice bits of information given, but to have
each bit automatically announced, one must place VO focus on the particular
bit.

Re: Apple Maps

2013-12-11 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I haven't used Google Maps for public transportation yet. I haven't had 
any trouble clicking on a route though, getting more details about the 
route and starting the spoken turn by turn navigation in either driving 
or walking mode. You may have found an accessibility issue with Google 
Maps, but maybe others who use it with public transportation can help.

When I selected public transit in Apple Maps for my planned route, a screen 
opened with Google Maps as one of the choices already on my iPhone. I selected 
Google Maps. Google Maps showed me a screen with the bus stop I needed to walk

running. I selected the time I desired from the three and nothing happened. I 
double-tapped, found the location on the display and split-tapped, 
triple-tapped, and performed the double-tap and hold pass through gesture. 
Nothing caused the display to change or my selection to be accepted. I could 
not find anything that showed me the entire route, or even where I was supposed 
to get off the bus. Any suggestions?

Why do you say Google Maps has much to be desired with respect to accessibility?

A few months ago, I tried using Apple Maps to get to my destination. I tried 
using the name of the business, but Apple Maps wouldn't find my destination 
that way. I tried entering the address directly, but I got an invalid address 
message. I typed the name of the business in Google Maps, and it came right up. 
I've been using Google Maps ever since, and I haven't noticed any accessibility 
issues with it.

I realize my problems with Apple Maps were probably user error, and I plan to 
give it a try again, but I just find Google Maps so accessible and so much more 
intuitive.

Re: having problem with dictation

In iOS 7, this has changed. If the edit field is in editing mode, and the 
onscreen keyboard is visible, a two-finger double tap will start dictation. If 
a bluetooth keyboard is connected and the onscreen keyboard is not visible, the 
two-finger double tap will not activate dictation.

Re: Audiobooks on iTunes

2013-12-11 Thread Aser Tolentino
According to an email I received from iTunes support, audiobooks can now indeed 
be re-downloaded. I still haven't tried it. Lately I found that iTunes prices 
for some audiobooks are comparable to those on audible.

Respectfully,
Aser Tolentino, Esq.

 way as they seem to be more expensive. So, I would highly recommend the

Re: Apex staying paired with IPad and IPhoneBluetooth and

2013-12-11 Thread Teresa Cochran
Unfortunately, this is tricky, and it takes practice. It took me several tries 
with my Focus 40 Blue braille display. The good news is that you should only 
have to do it once, and it will stay paired. It simply takes speed and 
dexterity.

 Hi Donna, 
 What helps is to turn off or lock the first device before pairing 
 with the second.  Note that Apex can pair and use two Bluetooth 
 devices at once. 
 There is an active discussion going on the BrailleNote list where 
 a member (who is a member of this list as well) cannot keep the 
 connection alive (or, as he puts it, Apex drops the connection 
 after few seconds).

 Subject: Apex staying paired with IPad and IPhoneBluetooth and 
 
 I have both an IPad and an IPhone.  I recently got an Apex BT 32. 
 It seems that when I get my apex and IPad finally paired and work 
 with that for a while things go well.  Then, if I try to work 
 with the IPhone after, the switch, I have to pair again.  So, I 
 guess this is not very clear, but I am wondering how to use the 
 apex successfully with both the IPad and the IPhone without 
 having to go through the pairing each time. 
 Should I maybe completely turn off the device I was using with 
 the apex and then let the other device pair on its own?  Or, am I 
 asking too much to be able to use the devices without having to 
 pair each time? 
 
 Hope my question is clear enough?

 of base! Wooden cupboards are, of course, very good too! You can create 
 different kinds of sound using different items, for example, a tin might get 
 you more high-pitched frequencies. I was thinking, this might be useful for 
 people with hearing difficulties who prefer different frequencies.
 
 It is, of course, a sort of toy! But it actually works! I think it cost about

RE: Ipad mini

2013-12-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Carol,

 

Primarily it is the jump of 2 generations from an A5 to an A7 processor and
the fact that the iPad Mini now has a retina display which has a much higher
resolution. The latter may not be of much interest to you, the former puts
the iPad Mini on par with the iPhone 5S and the regular iPad in terms of
processing power although Apple set the processor's clock speed slightly
lower than that of the regular iPad.

If you already own an iPad Mini then there is little reason to upgrade, if
you are thinking of getting one then with the new processor it's a beautiful
and very fast device.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

RE: Has anyone upgraded to IOS7 on an iPhone 4?

2013-12-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Bill,

 

I feel pretty comfortable saying that if you had set up your iPhone 4S
completely as a new phone and started from scratch you would have had no
problem. I ran iOS 7 starting mid August with the last Beta version, then
upgraded to the public release and I never noticed a slow-down in anything
except maybe the initial opening of an app which may have taken a second or
2 longer.

On an iPhone 4 you could notice a bigger speed difference although it has
gotten better with the updates. I recently read that iOS 7.1 runs much
faster on an iPhone 4 and it seems that it runs just as well as iOS 6 ever
did. A Beta of iOS 7.1 has been available to developers for about 3 weeks
now and the feedback I have seen is pretty good.

I usually follow the messages quite carefully and most people who had a 4S
felt it ran the same with iOS 7 as it did with iOS 6. I don't know if you do
the basic housekeeping tasks before upgrading such as making sure all apps
are closed in the app switcher, doing a reboot of the phone etc., but had my
4S been sluggish after the upgrade I would have just redone the upgrade and
set up the phone as a new device, this usually fixes any issues and issues
can occur if you restore from a backup.

I cannot speak to the iPhone 4 but on my 4s it was bad. I sold my 4S. This
is just my opinion but I would not upgrade to 4 to iOS 7.

Re: where to find james in voicedream

2013-12-11 Thread Richard Turner
First, you have to be sure you are running version 2.93 of VoiceDream.
Then, go to settings, double-tap on Manage My Voices, then double-tap where it 
says Add Voices.
The default list is All voices.
James, on my device, is on the screen with rows 11 to 18, and is between 
Heather and Will.
If anyone still can't find it, either they are not running version 2.93 or they 
perhaps need to  get sighted help.
Note that the place where it says, Add Voices, does not say it is a button, but 
it is.

RE: I hotel ap

2013-12-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Booking.com is very accessible, there are only a few minor qwerks and I have
notified Booking.com about them. Last year they fixed the app very nicely
based on some suggestions I sent to them and they have been very responsive
with respect to accessibility.

 

Other travel apps which seem to work well and which also include hotel
bookings as well as flights and other stuff are Expedia and Kayak.

 

The app from Hotels.com also seems accessible and useable, maybe not quite
as well done as booking.com. I am planning to get in touch with them as well
to see if they would look at improving accessibility. The nice thing with
Hotels.com is that if you use them to book 10 nights you get a free bonus
night.

Hi Carol,

Primarily it is the jump of 2 generations from an A5 to an A7 processor
and the fact that the iPad Mini now has a retina display which has a
much higher resolution. The latter may not be of much interest to you,
the former puts the iPad Mini on par with the iPhone 5S and the regular
iPad in terms of processing power although Apple set the processor’s
clock speed slightly lower than that of the regular iPad.

If you already own an iPad Mini then there is little reason to upgrade,
if you are thinking of getting one then with the new processor it’s a
beautiful and very fast device.

Re: Has anyone upgraded to IOS7 on an iPhone 4?

Hi Kevin,

Before purchasing my 5S, I had installed IOS 7 on my iPhone 4.  It was
working well.  Of course, it had slowed down a bit but was still quite
workable.  I did everything on it that I was doing in IOS 6 but just a
little slower.  I didn't find it awful to use.  Some people will probably

Re: having problem with dictation

2013-12-11 Thread Alan Paganelli
I'm assuming here we're talking about dictation in a text field?  I'll do a 
single finger double tap on a text message or an email I want to reply to. 
That opens up the text entry field.  Then I'll do a 2 finger double tap to 
start dictation.  When I'm finished, I repeat the two finger double tap.  I 
love how dictation gives you think time when you need it too.  Hope I'm 
responding to the right question.  If not, please accept my humble apologies 
for wasting your time.

dictation. to start it, one must double tap the dictate button. So, if you 
or someone is trying to dictate, you don't start with 2-finger double-tap. 
This would have the expected results of playing what ever was last being 
played. it's always worked for me this way.

I'm really having a problem with syncing music and I have no idea what to do

2013-12-11 Thread Jen Colley
Hi,  
I purchased some music from the itunes store about a week ago.  I plugged in my 
phone to add the music to my itunes library and so that I could sync the music 
to my iPod touch 4.  
I went in tto the purchased playlist on my phone which is where all purchased 
music goes and there are 10 songs less but the amount of music reflects that 
the songs are there.  I then went in to recently added and all the songs are 
there too.  
I then connected my iPod touch 4 and all the songs that were purchased are 
showing up in the purchased area.  
I’ve unchecked and checked every box in itunes and still in purchased music 10 
songs are missing but in the music under songs they are all there and in 
recently added they are there.  I called apple care and they had no idea.  
I’m hoping someone can help me so I can make this right.  
Thanks for any help.

Groundwire and Acrobits Softphone apps for iPhone and iPad on sale for 50% (December 11, 2013)

2013-12-11 Thread Esther
Hi All,

Acrobits has just placed its iOS apps for SIP services on sale for 50%.  These 
are:
• Groundwire - Business Caliber SIP Phone ($4.99, usually lists for $9.99) by 
Acrobits
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/groundwire-business-caliber/id378503081?mt=8
• Acrobits Softphone SIP phone for VoIP calls ($2.99, usually lists for $5.99) 
by Acrobits
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/acrobits-softphone-for-ipad/id599981890?mt=8
• Acrobits Softphone for iPad ($5,99, usually lists for $12.99) by Acrobits
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/acrobits-softphone-for-ipad/id599981890?mt=8

The first two apps are known to be accessible, and have entries at AppleVis.  
The iPad version is a relatively recent release from a few months ago, but has 
been through three updates, and I don't know details of its accessibility. 
However, this capability of making calls through the iPad may be of interest to 
some users.  Note that you must have a service providers hat supports these 
capabilities for this to work.

Kelly posted a recent iPhone on the Cheap user guide at AppleVis explaining 
the use of such services and gave the link to it in a recent list post.  I'll 
paste in her shortened link here:

RE: Bluetooth speaker/dock for iPhone qestion

2013-12-11 Thread SSEric
Bill, I may have recently recommended this to someone else. Below is the
Amazon link.

It is several years old now, so has the original 30-pin connector. However,
it works great with the 30-pin to lightning adapter for my iPhone 5, Touch
and iPad Mini, even in cases.

This speaker/dock has an internal rechargeable battery that lasts a good
long time. It will recharge the iDevice whether the speaker is plugged into
power or not. It has an auxiliary 3.5mm jack for those devices that do not
connect with the pin or lightning plug.

The speaker only has three buttons for base, a volume rocker and power. The
sound is excellent, especially considering it was originally $120-something
and now is under $50. Very portable and comes with a very nice padded carry
pouch that doubles brilliantly for a wine bottle.

(Note the link is wrapping to the second line.)

HTH!

RE: Groundwire and Acrobits Softphone apps for iPhone and iPad on sale for 50% (December 11, 2013)

2013-12-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Just as an endorsement, Groundwire is definitely a fantastic app and
completely accessible. It's a good buy at $4.99 and anybody who is using
VoIP calling would probably not regret getting it.
As Esther said, these apps all require subscriptions to VoIP providers and
there are too many out there to list them, but Groundwire also supports
incoming calls if you have an incoming VoIP number and it even works if the
app is not in the app switcher. In this case you get a push notification
which allows you to answer the call.
The app is very much like the stock Phone app with a Favorites tab called
Quickdial, a recents tab called History, a keypad and access to your
contacts list. You can also record both sides of an ongoing phone call, the
Record button is just there along with buttons for Speakerphone, keypad etc.
One thing Groundwire does not offer yet is touch dialing, e.g. you have to
double or split tab the numbers and I find it often does not work well for
dialing access numbers or entering account numbers.
Skype currently has the edge here since to my knowledge it is the only app
where touch typing works on the keypad although it also only works on the
main keypad, if you are already on a call and bring up the keypad to enter
numbers, then once again you have to double or split tab.


Regards,
Sieghard

RE: Question on your bluetooth speaker.

2013-12-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Ed,

 

I am also sharing this with the list because others might be interested.

 

The speaker I think you refer to was the Turtleshell by Outdoor Technology.
This is a very good Bluetooth speaker which also has an IPX-65
water/dustproof rating which means while you cannot submerse it for any
length of time, it is splash proof and totally OK to use in the rain and
it's definitely OK in the shower where it's damp and where it might get
splashed a bit.

 

Outdoor Tech recently released the Turtleshell 2 which is much improved in
that it uses Bluetooth 4.0, it is louder, it has voice prompts and you have
a battery indicator in the status bar on the phone.

The other good thing is that even though it's a better speaker, it now costs
$130 US whereas the original one used to be I think $170 US.

 

The Turtleshell also has a 3.5mm jack so you could also use it with a cable
and any device with a 3.5mm output.

It has volume and playback controls, it's also a speakerphone and it has a
standard camera/tripod threaded mounting hole.

Battery life is 16 hours with over 700 hours standby.

 

You can check it out at http://www.outdoortechnology.com/Shop/Turtle-Shell/

 

I am a dealer for these as I sell them at my outdoor retail store, but
unfortunately the company is a bit slow in responding. I have been sending
them emails and calling for the last 10 days as I want to order some of the
Turtleshell 2 and they haven't replied yet. I have the original Turtleshell
and use it a lot. The speakerphone is not great but I expect it to be better
on the new one, as a speaker it's awesome and in my opinion much better than
the original Jambox which I also have.

 

Outdoor Tech also introduced a new smaller speaker called Buckshot which is
I think $50 retail, it still has a speakerphone.

 

The Turtleshell comes in Black, Electric Blue, Red, White, Seafoam Green,
Purple,, Orange and Green.

I believe quite a few of the colours are still out of stock since the second
generation of the speaker has been released not very long ago.

 

I have 1 person who would like to get one and if anybody else is interested
you can write to me directly at siegh...@live.ca. If I get enough interest
to order a bunch of them which means cheaper shipping to me, I could
probably do a bit of a special price for list members. The company does
offer free shipping if you order directly at the $130 price, once I find out
what my cost is I could give people a definite price including shipping. It
wouldn't be a huge difference and it would depend on how much interest there
is.

 

I definitely believe that this is one of the better speakers out there
especially if you like something that is rugged and ready for use outdoors
or the shower/bathroom and looking at other options I don't often see
Bluetooth 4.0 even from established companies.

Subject: Question on your bluetooth speaker.

 

Hi Sieghard,

I remember a while back you talked about some kind of Bluetooth speaker that
you used with your iPhone.  Can you tell me again what kind it is.  Also
would you recommend this speaker or would you suggest another kind.  I have
one now I bought from Wally World for 19.95 made by Phillips.  It work
pretty good but does not have a volume control on it.  So whatever info you
can provide me with for a good Bluetooth speaker would be appreciated.  I
like having your opinion as you have tested some of these devices and I can
look on line but you can't always tell how good they are that way.

 

Have a good day.

 

How was your trip to Las Vegas?  I have been there numerous times and really
enjoyed it.

 

Ed

Jambox Demo Mode

2013-12-11 Thread SSEric

I once got this device to run some kind of demonstration mode. It included 
sounds, voice and music. For the life of me, I cannot reproduce this mode. I 
have long since lost the users manual and cannot find instructions on line.

Does anyone know how to enter this mode? All thanks in advance.

RE: Apex staying paired with IPad and IPhoneBluetooth and

2013-12-11 Thread Myrna Votta
It often happens that when you are unsuccessful at pairing the Apex, or any
other device with either the iPad or the iPhone, you need to begin the
entire process all over again.  But, first, you need to tell the iPad to
forget this device.  You can then attempt to pair and if you still hear
the iPad tell you that search is dimmed, you probably will need to turn off
BlueTooth in both the iPad, as well as the Apex and reboot both devices and
start the entire pairing process again.  Unfortunately, you don't have much
time to enter the  and then quickly find the pair button.  Sometimes I
have been lucky and have paired very quickly; however, the first time I
paired my Apex with an iPhone, it took me about an hour to do it.

Hi Donna, 
What helps is to turn off or lock the first device before pairing 
with the second.  Note that Apex can pair and use two Bluetooth 
devices at once. 
There is an active discussion going on the BrailleNote list where 
a member (who is a member of this list as well) cannot keep the 
connection alive (or, as he puts it, Apex drops the connection 
after few seconds).

Subject: Apex staying paired with IPad and IPhoneBluetooth and 

I have both an IPad and an IPhone.  I recently got an Apex BT 32. 
It seems that when I get my apex and IPad finally paired and work 
with that for a while things go well.  Then, if I try to work 
with the IPhone after, the switch, I have to pair again.  So, I 
guess this is not very clear, but I am wondering how to use the 
apex successfully with both the IPad and the IPhone without 
having to go through the pairing each time. 
Should I maybe completely turn off the device I was using with 
the apex and then let the other device pair on its own?  Or, am I 
asking too much to be able to use the devices without having to 
pair each time? 

Hope my question is clear enough?

Re: Ipad mini

2013-12-11 Thread Joanne Chua
Yes, the hardware different for ipad mini and the new mini retina is generally 
the processer, and also the size. The new mini is actually a touch bigger than 
the mini 1st gen.
Like Raul said, 1st gen mini is using ipad2 processer, and the latest mini is 
using a i7 processer.
It is not too noticable but the 1st gen mini is slightly slowing down with 
ios7, compare to ios6. Which, it is rather expected. However, like Sieghard 
said, it is depends on an individual. Can you  accept a slightly slow 
processer, (less than 1 second slow) or you need to be always on the fasters 
and the latest and newest device.
As for me, i would like to have th newest and latest and fastest, but, i'm not 
sure if i can justify to pay another $500 or more to own that. Not to say Apple 
just replace my first gen mini for a new first gen mini after my Apple care out 
by 2 months.
If you are considering a new ipad mini, then, by all means, ipad mini retina 
will be a better choice for you than the mini 1st gen.

 Primarily it is the jump of 2 generations from an A5 to an A7 processor
 and the fact that the iPad Mini now has a retina display which has a
 much higher resolution. The latter may not be of much interest to you,
 the former puts the iPad Mini on par with the iPhone 5S and the regular
 iPad in terms of processing power although Apple set the processor’s
 clock speed slightly lower than that of the regular iPad.
 
 If you already own an iPad Mini then there is little reason to upgrade,
 if you are thinking of getting one then with the new processor it’s a
 beautiful and very fast device.

 Notice this is “set” walking directions, because with Apple Maps you can set 
 the default direction choice to be walking, which is excellent if you spend 
 most of your time in a walkable downtown region.
 
 Open the “Settings” app and choose “Maps”
 Scroll down to “Preferred Directions” and tap on “Walking” to set foot 
 traffic as your new default preference
 Exit out of Settings and go back to the Maps app for changes to take effect
 
 
 Directions will now be provided with a preference by foot travel, and it’s 
 usually pretty good, providing sidewalk shortcuts and foot/bike overpasses 
 when possible. For the most part, this is really best for a city, and it’s a 
 largely fruitless endeavor beyond the obvious for smaller towns, which often 
 set the walking directions as the same as driving directions.
 
 This can also be useful to toggle on for those visiting a downtown region for 
 the day, say if you have a car parked in a garage and have spent the day 
 walking around, since it can make the pin drop find-your-car trick more 
 appropriate for getting back to the car by foot.
 
 Get Walking Directions in Google Maps for iOS
 
 Google Maps handles walking directions a bit different than Apple Maps, with 
 no general default setting other than what you last used. This means if you 
 last looked for driving directions, that will be your default, or if you last 
 used walking, then foot travel would be the default. Anyway, using Google for 
 walking directions is super simple:
 
 Open Google Maps and search for a destination, or tap and hold to drop a pin
 Tap the walking guy icon at the top of the screen to toggle walking 
 directions on
 Now tap the desired route from the list to draw walking directions on the map
 
 
 Google Maps seems to have more walking data than Apple Maps, and you’ll 
 sometimes get slightly different and often better walking directions for some 
 locations, particularly smaller cities. Google also lets you drop a 
 destination into the middle of nowhere, meaning no where near a road at all, 
 and it will try it’s best to give you walking directions to get there – which 
 can mean travel through parks, trails, walkways, and other corridors that may 
 be otherwise not quite obvious.
 
 Even for driving I generally recommend having both Google Maps and Apple Maps 
 installed on iPhones, since adding Google Maps doesn’t take up much space, 
 and, let’s face it, it’s still more accurate for many places anyway. The 
 accuracy gap is shrinking, but urban folks will still often be better served 
 by Google Maps, and thus it really does deserve a place on the iPhone of 
 anyone who plans on spending a lot of time walking about in a city, even if 
 it’s just for vacation. Another helpful trick is to remember that many city 
 streets are laid out on a grid, sometimes in obvious north/south/east/west 
 fashion, which can makes reorienting the maps to be pointing north 
 particularly helpful when walking around.

TapTapSee

2013-12-11 Thread Melanie Clouser
Have they added a counter to the TapTapSee app that counts the number of 
pictures taken? I've purchased a 100 picture package for $8 on 11/13 and now 
I'm being told I've used my 100 pictures already. That noticed started a week 
ago. There's no way I used that many pics in 3 weeks. I barely use 10 pics each 
week. I love the app and don't mind spending the $8 for 100 pics but I want to 
be sure that I get my 100 pics for the $8.

Re: Fleksy Alternatives for pre-iOS 7 Users?

2013-12-11 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I'm not sure Fleksy is leaving that many people behind. The vast 
majority of people have moved up to IOS 7. I think the people with a 
real beef are those iPhone 3 users who can't move up to IOS 7 at all.


Fleksy is by no means the only app that predates IOS 7 which is now only 
supported on IOS 7. Obviously, a developer would have to spend testing 
resources on IOS 6 and IOS 7 if they're going to continue to support 
both levels of the operating system. This cost alone may keep a small 
company from supporting both operating systems. It's also my 
understanding that Apple changes API's from version to version, so it's 
not a given that there's no work involved in supporting both IOS 6 and 
IOS 7.


Apple did take a beating when they rolled out IOS 7 updates 
automatically to people whether they upgraded or wanted to upgrade or 
not, so I'm sure they'd take a beating in the scenario you described 
below. This doesn't mean it isn't a good business idea for Apple to keep 
moving people up and for developers to assume everyone is on the latest. 
This model has obviously been wildly successful for Apple, and there's a 
lot of benefits for Apple, developers and users to all be on the latest 
and greatest software.


On 12/11/2013 12:48 AM, Lucian Fratila wrote:

Honestly I can't think of any other app that with no prior notice pulled 
support from a large chunk of its users (those on iOS 6 in this case).

Yes I have an iPhone 4 and no, I don't want to upgrade to 7 for an obvious 
variety of reasons - and most certainly not because an app forces me to. What I 
find absolutely mind-boggling is that we're talking here about an offline app, 
that worked very well thank you on iOS 6 before.

Yes, I did contact Fleksy support and they simply told me that Fleksy version 
1.9 (the last iOS 6 working version) is not supported anymore. As if they had 
to!

Yes, there are apps that only work on iOS 7 these days. But they either started 
on iOS 7, or they have a backend that no longer supports the iOS 6 version. As 
far as I understand, the technology behind Fleksy is built-in inside the app 
and does not require online presence (heck, if a typing app requires you to be 
connected to their servers, then something is fishy big time).

So in short I find no excusable justification to what Fleksy did. They're lucky 
their service is not high profile and they don't affect a real lot of paying 
users. Just think the backlash that, say, Apple would get if suddenly iTunes 
would no longer start on OS X pre-Mavericks, and would give you no option but 
to upgrade, even on a 2007 laptop. Luckily for them Fleksy is no Apple. But at 
this rate, I don't see them even turning profitable. What a shame when it's not 
the technology that buries you, but poor customer support.

If you get the paid version, you will go into settings in the Voice Dream app,
