Hi again, Kliphton,

 

Just out of curiocity, what caused  your iPhone to go into DFU mode? Were you 
trying to jailbreak and are you sure it’s in DFU mode and not in recovery mode?

 

Also, I believe Scott is correct in saying that you can restore from iTunes if 
your phone is in DFU mode. A manual restore using an IPSW file is of course not 
a problem, but I don’t think it’s necessary. Here is a link to an Apple support 
thread which seems to also confirm this:

install it manually.  Anyone no where I can get it from?  I have tried google, 
and on there it’s all about IOS8 and how to update the beta.  Thanks.

RE: Google MAPS

2014-08-06 Thread Hicks Steven (CORNWALL IT SERVICES)
Thanks for taking the time to help me, I tried it for the first time this 
morning.
It is pretty impressive to say the least!
Do you know if the screen locks when you are on a route?
The phone is in my pocket but if I turn it up, I can hear it easily.  Caused 
some confusion on the bus I think :-)
Is there a walking mode as well?

Yes, it's accessible. I haven't used the Maps app from Apple in quite a while, 
so I'm not sure what advantages you have in Google Maps over the Maps app from 
Apple.

When I originally looked at the Maps app from Apple, I couldn't enter a 
destination except by address. With Google Maps, I can just type the name of a 
location and then select the one I want from a list. I also save popular 
destinations to my profile and then I can just select them from there. I assume 
Apple Maps has these features, and it was just user ignorance on my part.

Google Maps will also store your route locally on your phone. You'll need an 
internet connection to download it originally, but if you end up driving 
through an area with no coverage, as I did last weekend, you still get turn by 
turn directions. I'm not sure if Apple Maps has this feature or not.

Finally, I just find Google Maps to have a simpler more intuitive interface. 
Again, that could just be what I'm used to though, and it's definitely 
subjective.

Both apps are free, so there's no issue with having both on your phone and 
giving each a try.

Re: Bluetooth between Apex and IPhone

Hello All.

Since I got my Focus Blue, and although I have an Apex for my work, I don't 
like using the Apex with my I phone any more. I just don't find the Humanware 
Apex working so well with IOS since I have experienced both the Focus Blue 40 
and now the 14 with my IOS device. Most recently my chpex had to be fixed and 
when I got it back, I still find one cell weak.

 Of course, a newer iOS device is probably what HW will tell you you need, but 
 I tend to think that's not the case. I can't offer any specific advice on 
 fixing it, unfortunately, but I can say that you aren't alone. This is just 
 one of the great many reasons I've given up on Humanware's notetakers 
 altogether.

 HI guys
 I've never in my life worked with Bluetooth before, until awhile ago today; 
 the paring between my Apex and IPhone 3GS with IOs6.3 went without a hitch! 
 I was able to work with it great! however subsequent times, either the two 
 devices aren't found, or when they are, all of a sudden, I can be Brailling 
 away on my Apex, and the connection loses itself, with the Apex returning to 
 the Main Menu. The Apex is fine because it detects my laptop OK, so might 
 the problem be the IPhone maybe it not being close enough? Thanks for ideas, 
 because as I said before, I've never worked with Bluetooth before, thus 
 maybe I might be missing an important tip?

Re: Baum braille display

2014-08-06 Thread Kawal Gucukoglu
I did see this Braille Display at Sight Village which is held in the UK every 
year. Although I liked the Braille, I thought the device rather expensive and a 
bit chunky for my tastes. But pairing it to 3 or 4 devices will be good for 
someone if they can afford the heavy price tag. Just my thoughts.

 I saw the Ultra Vario 20 cell braille display today.
 The cost is $2395.00 and is made by Baum.
 In my opinion, it is one of the best braille displays I've seen.
 It has a switch to toggle from display mode to notetaker mode.
 In the notetaker mode, it has a word processor that can read the standard 
 text file types, BRF, TXT, DOC, etc.
 What you write in the word processor can be opened on the computer I think as 
 a TXT file.
 It also has a pdf and excel viewer. They plan to add a power point viewer 
 this fall.
 You can have up to 4 bluetooth devices paired at one time. A key combination 
 toggles through the different bluetooth channels.
 It has 32 GB of internal flash, plus can read and save to USB sticks.
 It has a key lock switch.
 I found the keyboard very comfortable to write on.
 It has the standard braille keys and the baum navigation keys, plus a few 
 extra modifier keys for accessing menus, modes, etc.
 There is also a 40 cell model which cells for $3395.00.
 The braille felt very sharp and clear to me.
 It will start shipping around August 15th.
 
 You can read more about it and find a local dealer at:
 http://www.baumusa.com/
 If I didn't already have the Braille Edge in my office, I would buy the 20 
 cell for its portability and features.

 SFO Terminal 2 San Francisco International is about to make life decidedly 
 easier for blind and visually impaired travelers. The airport has teamed up 
 with Indoo.rs to unveil a Bluetooth beacon system that will help these 
 passengers find their way through Terminal 2 using only their phone. When 
 users walk past one of the 500 transmitters, their devices will announce 
 nearby points of interest; they can find flight gates, ATMs, information 
 desks and power outlets without asking for help. An early version of the 
 necessary app also has a directory for sighted visitors. The guide 
 technology only works on iOS devices so far, but The Verge understands that 
 it will eventually support Android-toting guests as well. Indoo.rs expects 
 the service to be available either late in the third quarter or early in the 
 fourth.

Re: Kobo on ipad mini

Dear Anne,

this is most generous a description.  Thank you!

 Hello Andrew,
 
 
 Kobo is complex to set up and has changed many times in the years I've been 
 using it.
 
 When you launch Kobo, you should find the Library button at the top left of 
 the screen, just under the signal strength indicator for your mobile carrier. 
 Double tap the Library button.
 You should find a button labeled Nav Menu icon iPhone. Double tap this and, 
 sweeping right from the top left, you should find
 Home, Library, All, Books, Magazines, Kobo collections and lots more. Double 
 tap on Books.
 Your books should then appear. Double tap on the book you want to read. 
 Sometimes, you have to do this several times before it works.
 With a book open, you need to double tap anywhere on the screen to bring up 
 the tool bar at the bottom, but with VoiceOver active, you can't access the 
 Settings screen. You need sighted help to get it set up. The page transition 
 style you need is Scrolling. After that, a two-finger swipe up the way will 
 read the whole chapter.
 
 At the end of the chapter, double-tap the link at the bottom right of the 
 screen to go to the next chapter. A three-finger swipe up will turn the pages 
 should you be interrupted in the middle of a chapter. It also works well with 
 a Braille display.
 
 Cheers,
 
 Anne

 Thank you for responding.  I am really confused in Kobo.  I can't even find

 hour trying to figure things out but to no avail.  I explored the 'settings

 puzzled why I can't find the list of my books although I have downloaded

 I'm afraid that Kobo isn't accessible on an iPad. It works great on an

 On an iPhone, the page transition style must be set to Scrolling for Kobo 
 to be accessible.

I have to say that my experience with Apex linked to my 4s has been very

 I was able to work with it great! however subsequent times, either the two

Re: Google MAPS

2014-08-06 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I don't think the screen locks when you're using google Maps. I touch 
the screen when using it to get more information on where I am, the next 
direction and how close I am to my destination. When my wife uses it, 
who's sighted, she just leaves it on her lap while she's driving so she 
can refer to the route on the screen.


Yes there is a walking or pedestrian mode. Early in the process, when 
you're selecting your route, there should be some tabs at the top, and 
you can choose between driving, walking and public transit.


I'm glad I could help.

Yes, it's accessible. I haven't used the Maps app from Apple in quite a while, 
so I'm not sure what advantages you have in Google Maps over the Maps app from 
Apple.

When I originally looked at the Maps app from Apple, I couldn't enter a 
destination except by address. With Google Maps, I can just type the name of a 
location and then select the one I want from a list. I also save popular 
destinations to my profile and then I can just select them from there. I assume 
Apple Maps has these features, and it was just user ignorance on my part.

Google Maps will also store your route locally on your phone. You'll need an 
internet connection to download it originally, but if you end up driving 
through an area with no coverage, as I did last weekend, you still get turn by 
turn directions. I'm not sure if Apple Maps has this feature or not.

Finally, I just find Google Maps to have a simpler more intuitive interface. 
Again, that could just be what I'm used to though, and it's definitely 
subjective.

Both apps are free, so there's no issue with having both on your phone and 
giving each a try.

It is in my jacket pocket and I didn't really have any issues with the screen

 assume Apple Maps has these features, and it was just user ignorance on my 
 part.

 Google Maps will also store your route locally on your phone. You'll need an 
 internet connection to download it originally, but if you end up driving 
 through an area with no coverage, as I did last weekend, you still get turn 
 by turn directions. I'm not sure if Apple Maps has this feature or not.

 Finally, I just find Google Maps to have a simpler more intuitive interface. 
 Again, that could just be what I'm used to though, and it's definitely 
 subjective.

 Both apps are free, so there's no issue with having both on your phone and 
 giving each a try.

Re: Bluetooth between Apex and IPhone

2014-08-06 Thread Alex Hall
True, some commands (space-e, space-z, or space with all six dots) will do 
this. A quick correction, though: the pass-through command is enter-4-5-6 (or 
4-5-6-8), not backspace-4-5-6. You also only need to add the spacebar if you 
are using eight-dot braille.

How to initialize? More on Apex with IPhone via Bluetooth

2014-08-06 Thread Gerardo Corripio

 HI guys
Wow incredible! Call it luck, but I find since I had to resynchronize my 
Apex and IPhone via VO's Braille setting because it got to a point where 
it said the IPhone was incompatible with the Apex (or something along 
those lines), my connection experience between these has been wow! 
Imagine my joy in reading names of twitter followers in Braille after 
I'd only heard them with Jaws? but ok enough of this rambling!
My question this time is what's the initializing procedure? The way I do 
it now, is:

1.-On the Apex, go into Braille Terminal Mode;
2.-Unblock my IPhone, and wait until they connect, blocking and 
unblocking until they pair, holding the phone close to the Apex etc.
Thus my question, if there is a way, what's the correct initialization 
procedure when preparing the Apex to pair with my IPhone? Thanks for info.

 Yes there is a walking or pedestrian mode. Early in the process, when you're

Re: Baum braille display

2014-08-06 Thread Gmail
Having the thumb keys is definitely a feature I'll miss, but I can get used to 
using the navigation buttons for panning. I already have them on the

be interesting. I remember seeing it on the Refreshabraille, but I eventually 
picked the Brailliant for its less boxy appearance.

 I don't know if you've ever seen one of the Brailliant displays, but it

 I saw the Ultra Vario 20 cell braille display today.
 The cost is $2395.00 and is made by Baum.
 In my opinion, it is one of the best braille displays I've seen.
 It has a switch to toggle from display mode to notetaker mode.
 In the notetaker mode, it has a word processor that can read the standard 
 text file types, BRF, TXT, DOC, etc.
 What you write in the word processor can be opened on the computer I think 
 as a TXT file.
 It also has a pdf and excel viewer. They plan to add a power point viewer 
 this fall.
 You can have up to 4 bluetooth devices paired at one time. A key 
 combination toggles through the different bluetooth channels.
 It has 32 GB of internal flash, plus can read and save to USB sticks.
 It has a key lock switch.
 I found the keyboard very comfortable to write on.
 It has the standard braille keys and the baum navigation keys, plus a few 
 extra modifier keys for accessing menus, modes, etc.
 There is also a 40 cell model which cells for $3395.00.
 The braille felt very sharp and clear to me.
 It will start shipping around August 15th.
 
 You can read more about it and find a local dealer at:
 http://www.baumusa.com/
 If I didn't already have the Braille Edge in my office, I would buy the 20 
 cell for its portability and features.

Re: Radium and sirius?

2014-08-06 Thread Chris Chaffin
Hello, 
I started having trouble On Monday afternoon with the Radium app playing my 
Sirius stations.
I then tried switching to  the Sirius app, but the Sirius app said my log in 
information was invalid.  So I called Sirius customer care, and was informed 
that Sirius was gradually making people change their passwords for security 
reasons.
I then got my password changed for my mobile device, and the Sirius app now 
works for me.  But the thing is that the Radium app still does not work with my 
Sirius stations.  It accepted my new password, but none of my sirius stations 
will play.

I am beginning to  think that sirius changed something on their end that no 
longer lets Radium access there station feeds.  I think we all need to  make 
the developer of the Radium app aware of this, so hopefully it can be fixed.

The Radium app will play other stations, just not sirius radio stations.

Re: Radium and sirius?

 Hello, 
 I started having trouble On Monday afternoon with the Radium app playing my 
 Sirius stations.
 I then tried switching to  the Sirius app, but the Sirius app said my log in 
 information was invalid.  So I called Sirius customer care, and was informed 
 that Sirius was gradually making people change their passwords for security 
 reasons.
 I then got my password changed for my mobile device, and the Sirius app now 
 works for me.  But the thing is that the Radium app still does not work with 
 my Sirius stations.  It accepted my new password, but none of my sirius 
 stations will play.
 
 I am beginning to  think that sirius changed something on their end that no 
 longer lets Radium access there station feeds.  I think we all need to  make 
 the developer of the Radium app aware of this, so hopefully it can be fixed.
 
 The Radium app will play other stations, just not sirius radio stations.
 
 I tried to  delete the app, restart my phone, then re install the app, but it 
 still did not work.
 
 If anyone finds a solution for this, please share it with us all!!

cleaning up documents and data on IPhone 5C

2014-08-06 Thread Raggedy Ann
There are over 1 gig of documents and data on my phone that I cannot delete, 
not even locate. I do not have an ICloud account, so I'm assuming they are 
somewhere on my phone. I am also not using e-mail on my phone yet. 

I have tried locating them through various settings options, including general 
usage but only the amount is shown, no option to delete or clean.

How can I clean up these documents and data?

Thanks.

Ann

RE: iphone and blood pressure monitoring

2014-08-06 Thread Rick Alfaro
I'm really looking forward to a non-invasive way of checking blood sugar.
With today's technology there's no reason why we should have to prick our
fingers to get a blood glucose reading. I truly believe the technology is
there but has been held back by lobbiests for the big pharmaceutical
companies. If anyone can get it done it would be Apple.

Keeping my fingers crossed.



Best regards,

WE should see blood pressure devices which work with the iPhone hopefully
soon since Apple's new Health app and the health kid for devlopers allows
companies to develop both hardware devices as well as apps which will work
well with the iPhone. Apple is working with at least one manufacturer of
medical devices, I think it was something like Epic Systems, but I can't
quite remember, and I'm sure there will be more just as there will be more
in the area of home automation. Both health kit and home kit are features of
iOS 8 and I'm sure there is lots of good stuff coming within the next year
or so.

 Listers,

 This may be pie in the sky question but can the iPhone be useful in
precise blood pressure monitoring at all?  I know that there have been
discussions here on the subject of the iPhone and blood sugar monitoring so
I was wondering whether the iPhone might help with blood pressure monitoring
somehow.  I have a talking blood pressure monitor from the RNIB but I have a
feeling that it is rather imprecise and gives me not infrequently rather
wild readings.

 Thanks for any comments.

 Hi again, Kliphton,
  
 Just out of curiocity, what caused  your iPhone to go into DFU mode? Were you 
 trying to jailbreak and are you sure it's in DFU mode and not in recovery 
 mode?
  
 Also, I believe Scott is correct in saying that you can restore from iTunes 
 if your phone is in DFU mode. A manual restore using an IPSW file is of 
 course not a problem, but I don't think it's necessary. Here is a link to an 
 Apple support thread which seems to also confirm this:

I have no issues with my Apex running 9.4.  I assume you did as directed as

I think I've found the best luck by dropping the connection from the iPhone

In Keysoft 9.3 and 9.4, I found similar connection problems. Nothing changed 
except the Keysoft version, so I have to think it's something Humanware did. 
Of course, a newer iOS device is probably what HW will tell you you need, 
but I tend to think that's not the case. I can't offer any specific advice 
on fixing it, unfortunately, but I can say that you aren't alone. This is

importing audio books for voice dream

2014-08-06 Thread Joe Paton
Good Afternoon from a hot south-east of the UK, here is my lack of
knowledge.
Running Voice dream reader, I can, given enough time, import files for
VDR to read from dropbox.

However downloading files is a slow process.

I can see how to get music media in to an Itunes library, but What is
not clear, is how to import third party books in to itunes, for further
synchronization with an I Device.
If somebody could shine some light on this for me, that would be just
the best news today.
Kind regards and thanks.

Re: importing audio books for voice dream

2014-08-06 Thread Brett
Hi Joe, 

These steps are off the top of my head, as I am not near a computer at the 
moment. Hopefully they are close enough to help you figure it out. 

If the audio book comtains several files, you first need to zip them up on your 
computer. 
2. Connect your iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes. 
3. In the left hand column, in iTunes, go down to where you see your phones 
name. 
4. Tab until you get to apps, I think the option is and press the space bar to 
check the apps checkbox. 
5. Tab across until you get to the list of apps that can transfer documents, 
then use your up and down arros to move to voicedream. 
6. Once VoiceDream is highlighted, tab to the add button and activate it. This 
will open a standard open file dialog. 
7. Brows to the zip file you created and press enter on it. This should then 
copy the book to your iPhone. 

Once this is done, you can disconnect your phone from iTunes. When you launch 
VoiceDream and hopefully you will see the audio book in VoiceDreams library. 

Hopefully I have all these steps correctly. If not hopefully someone else can 
chime in or i can check this out tonight to varify the steps, if you don't get 
it working. 

Hope this helps, 
Brett.

sighted, she just leaves it on her lap while she's driving so she can refer
to the route on the screen.

Yes there is a walking or pedestrian mode. Early in the process, when you're
selecting your route, there should be some tabs at the top, and you can
choose between driving, walking and public transit.

I'm glad I could help.

 Yes, it's accessible. I haven't used the Maps app from Apple in quite a
while, so I'm not sure what advantages you have in Google Maps over the Maps
app from Apple.

 When I originally looked at the Maps app from Apple, I couldn't enter a
destination except by address. With Google Maps, I can just type the name of
a location and then select the one I want from a list. I also save popular
destinations to my profile and then I can just select them from there. I
assume Apple Maps has these features, and it was just user ignorance on my
part.

 Google Maps will also store your route locally on your phone. You'll need
an internet connection to download it originally, but if you end up driving
through an area with no coverage, as I did last weekend, you still get turn
by turn directions. I'm not sure if Apple Maps has this feature or not.

 Finally, I just find Google Maps to have a simpler more intuitive
interface. Again, that could just be what I'm used to though, and it's
definitely subjective.

 Both apps are free, so there's no issue with having both on your phone and
giving each a try.

Re: importing audio books for voice dream

2014-08-06 Thread Arnold Schmidt
The following message tells you the beginning of how to import a book to 
Voice Dream via iTunes, but there are some steps I need to add. Transferring 
a book to Voice Dream via iTunes is different from the other apps that can 
use ITunes to transfer material to them.


First, when you  navigate to the zipped file you want to transfer, you do 
not hit enter on it, just highlight it by focusing on it with the up and 
down arrow keys.  Then, tab to the open file button, and hit enter. 
Technically , it does not open it yet, it just prepares it to be opened in 
the app into which you are transferring it.  Under most circumstances, after 
hitting the open button, you would then tab to the synch button, or the 
apply button, activate it, and iTunes would transfer the file to the app. 
However, to import something to Voice Dream, after you hit the open button 
in iTunes on your computer, start Voice Dream on your phone, and activate 
the add button, which is in the lower left hand of the screen, when you are 
in the list of books you already have in Voice Dream.  Start flicking over, 
and iTunes is the first one, or really near the beginning of the list.  Tap 
iTunes,then flick around until you find the name of the file you just opened 
in iTunes on your computer.  If there is more than one, there is a select 
all button.  Tap the file name or the select all button, then continue to 
flick around (in my case, I go to the left, and you will find a load button. 
Tap the load button, and wait a minute, and Voice Dream hopefully will tell 
you when the file, or files, have been loaded, with an okay button. 
Finally, flick to the done button, and tap it.


When I couldn't get Voice Dream to import files, I admittedly went through 
some frustration and use of profane language until I got it figured  out. 
Although, in my opinion, it is almost more trouble than it is worth, It will 
work.

I need to restory a backup I made this afternoon. I only seem to get the option 
to backup. Can someone tell me how to restore a backup from iCloud?

Thanks.

Re: restoring from iCloud

2014-08-06 Thread Kliphton Senior
This option is only going to show up after you have restored your phone in 
iTunes, then is when the radio button to restore from backup on your computer, 
or from an iCloud backup will be availible.  Choose iCloud, then go to your 
phone, sign in to your WiFi network then restore from backup should appear.

 Yes there is a walking or pedestrian mode. Early in the process, when you're

 choose between driving, walking and public transit.

 Yes, it's accessible. I haven't used the Maps app from Apple in quite a
 while, so I'm not sure what advantages you have in Google Maps over the Maps
 app from Apple.
 
 When I originally looked at the Maps app from Apple, I couldn't enter a
 destination except by address. With Google Maps, I can just type the name of
 a location and then select the one I want from a list. I also save popular
 destinations to my profile and then I can just select them from there. I
 assume Apple Maps has these features, and it was just user ignorance on my
 part.
 
 Google Maps will also store your route locally on your phone. You'll need
 an internet connection to download it originally, but if you end up driving
 through an area with no coverage, as I did last weekend, you still get turn
 by turn directions. I'm not sure if Apple Maps has this feature or not.
 
 Finally, I just find Google Maps to have a simpler more intuitive
 interface. Again, that could just be what I'm used to though, and it's
 definitely subjective.
 
 Both apps are free, so there's no issue with having both on your phone and
 giving each a try.

If you get a call you can answer it as usual.  If Google Maps needs to tell
you of the next maneuver you will hear it in your ear.  The person you are
talking to will have no clue that this happened as they will not hear it.

Subject: Thought you might be interested
 
10 ways Apple, Google and others will change the way you drive:

Apple and Google are driving toward the connected car. Government and car 
manufacturers are working with them to achieve this. This isn't just about 
sending emails or music playback -- driving will be changed forever. Your car 
will speak to you. Here are 10 ways driving will change:

Car: Your heart rate and pulse show me you're a little tired. Would you like 
me to cool the cabin and play loud music?

Plessey Semiconductors is developing seat sensors that mean your car will 
respond to your physical condition. As in-car telematics become accessible 
using smartphones, further opportunities will emerge.

Car: You seem to be driving to the theatre, would you like me to find and book 
you a parking space?

Location services combined with your car's understanding of the places you go 
mean your vehicle will be able to work with smart transit and parking 
allocation systems.

Car: You need to top up the engine fluids and the tires need inflating.

Your car carries a ton of sensors. These are already used in crash scene 
evidence collection and an app called Automatic can access this information in 
some cars now. One day, all your mobile devices will do the same.

Phone rings: Hi there, this is your car, I'm just calling to let you know 
someone else is sitting in the driver's seat. Do you want me to authorize them 
to drive, or shall I disable myself.

A camera in the rear view mirror will run a facial scan. Apple's Touch ID in 
the steering wheel or on your phone could be deployed to boost such security 
features.

Car: I see we are in slow moving traffic. Would you like me to take over so 
you can read some emails?

Renault's vision for self-driving cars sees you in control. Drive your car if 
you want, or hand over to autopilot when that makes sense.

Car: A driver in the next street is driving erratically. Slow down. Beware.

Cars won't just talk to you and to service providers. They will also speak with 
each other. They will know how you drive, and warn their drivers accordingly.

Phone call to emergency services: Hi there, this is a silver Audi on Route 57. 
I've been in an accident. Please send help.

Europe's 'eCall' law comes into effect in 2015. All new cars will be required 
to host an embedded SIM and mobile connectivity to alert emergency services in 
case of theft of accident.

Car: You have been speeding. I have contacted law enforcement and you have 
been issued a ticket.

These connected solutions sound impressive, but intelligence works both ways. 
Poor drivers will be penalized: For your protection.

How much will you pay? Making it compulsory for new cars to carry SIMs mean 
they must be online. Carriers will want to charge. Drivers will pay. Carriers 
will offer additional services for additional fees.

Insurers will love this. Insurance firms are already offering Pay How You Drive 
policies, in which drivers agree to put connected sensors in their cars which 
measure things like braking speed, acceleration and more. The theory is solid 
-- safe drivers pay less -- but will there come a point when car insurance is 
no longer necessary? One thing's for sure, car insurers will do everything they 
can to maintain the existence of the vehicle insurance cash cow.

Love it or loathe it, the way you drive is going to change. Think about this 
when you decide between Apple's CarPlay or Android Auto.

RE: download link for IOS 7.12 iPhone 5s?

2014-08-06 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Christina,

 

DFU mode stands for Device Firmware Update mode. If an iPhone is in DFU mode
it is recognized by iTunes, but it does not load iOS. This is mostly used by
people who jailbreak or who want to upgrade or downgrade manually. Below are
the steps for putting an iDevice into DFU mode:

 

1. Plug your device into your computer with a USB cable. 

2. Turn off the device. 

3. Hold the Power button for 3 seconds. 

4. press the Home button for 10 seconds without letting go of the power
button.

5. Release the Power button but keep holding the Home button for another 15
seconds.

 

If the process was successful iTunes will alert you by saying that it has
detected a device in Recovery Mode. 

it's most likely not something you will ever have to worry about.

Sieghard

Hi again, Kliphton,

 

Just out of curiocity, what caused  your iPhone to go into DFU mode? Were
you trying to jailbreak and are you sure it's in DFU mode and not in
recovery mode?

 

Also, I believe Scott is correct in saying that you can restore from iTunes
if your phone is in DFU mode. A manual restore using an IPSW file is of
course not a problem, but I don't think it's necessary. Here is a link to an
Apple support thread which seems to also confirm this:

Apple iPhone 6 event is on Tuesday, September 9

2014-08-06 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Listers,

 

I was just listening to the latest today in iOS podcast and Rob announced
that Apple apparently confirmed to what used to be All Things D that they
will hold their iPhone 6 event on Tuesday, September 9. This of course is no
big surprise when you look at announcements for the last few years, but it
is surprising that Apple announced this 5 weeks in advance where in the past
they only confirmed the date about a week or so before.

 

According to Rob this means the public release of iOS 8 should follow on
Wednesday, September 17 with the new iPhones being in stores and shipping on
Friday, September 19.

 

It will certainly be interesting to see which of the old devices will stick
around and if there will only be a 4.7 and 5.5 inch iPhone 6 or also a 4
inch and whether all of the new devices will have sapphire crystal touch
screens. The A8 chip is a given for the new phones and I think the rumours
pretty much nailed the sizes for the new larger iPhones. What I haven't
heard much about is what kind of upgrade the camera will get except that
pictures seem to indicate a single flash again and also nothing much has
been said about battery capacities. Oh, yes, I did hear that the iPhone 6
will also include a barometric sensor for measuring air pressure. I guess
the rumours should sort of come together in the next few weeks. Enjoy the
anticipation! If you want to keep up with what's going on subscribe to the
Today in iOS Podcast, Rob has been talking about all the iOS 8 Betas (Beta 5
was released last Monday) and there will probably be one more Beta in 2
weeks before the Goldmaster release shortly before the event. For those who
don't know this, the public release is usually the same as the Goldmaster
unless something super serious is discovered in the Goldmaster release.
