Re: can't turn voice over off, help

2014-10-24 Thread RobH.
The triple click home might not be set if updated, worth going into 
accessibility to check that.  Meanwhile, Siri is a reliable option... 
usually.

Hi Louana. There are a few ways of turning Voiceover off. One is to do a 
triple click of the home button, or you can ask Siri to turn it off for you. 
If you're near a computer, I think you can turn it off with iTunes. HTH.

Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote

2014-10-24 Thread Richard Turner
Hi Chris
I'm using an iPhone 5S running iOS 8.1.
I suppose it could be that this is new in iOS 8. I don't know. I actually don't 
use Accessnote that much. I keep meaning to spend more time with it. Maybe now 
I will.

I bounce back and forth between using Pages for some things and PlainText 2.
Some folks I know really like Meteor Notes.
There are an ton of choices out there.
Perhaps you can just stick with accessnote.
Good luck,
Richard

 Hello Richard,
 
 Ok, still no dropbox button.
 I uninstalled the app, moved all of my files to another folder in dropbox, 
 restarted my phone, then reinstalled the app.
 Of coarse, I had to log back in to dropbox, and give access note permission 
 to access dropbox, and in the process it specifically asked me if it could 
 access the access note folder in apps.  There was nothing to tap on to change 
 it to anywhere else in dropbox.  And I assume that you already know, but I am 
 running version 1.2 just like you are.
 Like you, I am totally stumped!! 
 Now I have seen other apps that let you select where you want to save a file 
 in dropbox, but never in access note.
 I am not sure what you are running it on, but I am running it on an iPhone 5

 I hope it starts to work better with ios 8, since there has been previous

 just in case, I am checking out a couple of other apps.

Does anyone use this app and input text using Braille Screen Input? I

Thought I would ask before plonking down the money for it. I like Pages a lot,

trying to open a message with the subject line ios 8.1.

Re: AccessNote was Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote

2014-10-24 Thread Richard Turner
Chris,
My apologies.
My apologies to everyone else.
Apparently what I was seeing was a list of my apps in my productivity folder.
AccessNote is not working at all under iOS 8. At least, not to add a note. When 
I hit add, it is taking me out of accessnote.
But, thanks to iOS 8, it happens so fast and silently that I thought I was 
seeing a menu.
Like I said, I have not used the app that much.
Sorry for the wild goose chase.
Whatever you do, don't upgrade to iOS 8 just yet.

 understand it is designed mainly to work with bluetooth keyboards and 
 Braille displays.
 Thought I would ask before plonking down the money for it. I like Pages a 
 lot, but the more the merrier smile.
 Any comments greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 Hi Chris
 I'm using an iPhone 5S running iOS 8.1.
 I suppose it could be that this is new in iOS 8. I don't know. I actually 
 don't use Accessnote that much. I keep meaning to spend more time with it. 
 Maybe now I will.
 
 I bounce back and forth between using Pages for some things and PlainText 2.
 Some folks I know really like Meteor Notes.
 There are an ton of choices out there.
 Perhaps you can just stick with accessnote.
 Good luck,

 Hello Richard,
 
 Ok, still no dropbox button.
 I uninstalled the app, moved all of my files to another folder in dropbox, 
 restarted my phone, then reinstalled the app.
 Of coarse, I had to log back in to dropbox, and give access note 
 permission to access dropbox, and in the process it specifically asked me 
 if it could access the access note folder in apps.  There was nothing to 
 tap on to change it to anywhere else in dropbox.  And I assume that you 
 already know, but I am running version 1.2 just like you are.
 Like you, I am totally stumped!! 
 Now I have seen other apps that let you select where you want to save a 
 file in dropbox, but never in access note.
 I am not sure what you are running it on, but I am running it on an iPhone 
 5 with ios 7.1.2.
 I hope it starts to work better with ios 8, since there has been previous 
 reports that there were problems.  I use access note on a daily basis, but 
 just in case, I am checking out a couple of other apps.
 
 Thanks for your help!!

 That is very strange.
 I'm using Accessnote Version: 1.2.
 
 Under the Accessnote settings the Dropbox sync is on.
 Do you have a sync button on the main screen? Did you double tap on that?
 I can't think of anything else that would explain this.
 I don't recall any thing different in setting it up.
 If nothing else works, maybe deleting the app and reinstalling it would 
 help.
 Sorry I don't have any better ideas.

 All I have is the back button, the action button, review on / off

 I checked the help, and it also did not mention a dropbox button.
 All I can think of is that there was a choice regarding this when I 
 originally set up dropbox with the app, and I must have restricted it to 
 just the AFB note folder.  Because I am not seeing that dropbox button 
 that you are refering too.

 If you are in the accessnote folder, find the back button in the upper

 Then, there should be a dropbox back button in the upper left.
 Double tap on it and you should have a list of all your dropbox folders.
 I just did this twice to make sure.

Hi,
Same here. I will like to investigate if it's outlook or Jaws. I've
experienced this same issue with a thread on KNF reader.
I want to believe it has to do with a threads that are too long.
For now the suggested work around from Sieghard is the way to go: Try
replying to the mail, then you can read it. Afterwards, you can reply or
cancel it

Re: accessible app to determine horizontal level

Hi,

Actually, I believe it only gives a left and right level.  I assume you could 
turn the Iphone so that it is edge on to you so it would represent the level to 
you and away from you.  I have never thought about this til now.

I just tried laying my phone flat on a table and then lifting each of the 4 
sides slightly and it does seem to give level readings on all side.  I am 
unsure how to interpret this but maybe you can figure it out.

Re: My Outlook only freezes when I try to open a message with the Subject iOS 8.1

2014-10-24 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I would be shocked if this were a Windows or even an Outlookbug. It 
reminds me most of those strings that crash Eloquence, but if I remember 
right, someone said they were using JAWS with WLM, so it wouldn't be the 
same problem. Maybe it's the size of the buffer being used in the JAWS 
off screen model. With these generic subject lines and the hijacking of 
threads, a message titled IOS 8.1 could be pretty large.


Before we start pointing at a particular application, we need to know a 
lot more. Does it only happen with JAWS? What about those NVDA and 
Outlook users? What about those JAWS users using Thunderbird or WLM? I 
can't be of much help myself since I usually read my email with my 
iPhone, AquaMail on Android or Thunderbird and Orca on Ubuntu.


When someone sees this problem, do they have any sighted help available? 
Is it just JAWS or Eloquence crashing or is the whole system really hung?


I'm sure the poster below was joking, but as I said above, I'd be 
surprised if it's a Windows bug, and I don't think it would have 
anything to do with Windows getting confused between IOS 8.1 and Windows 
8.1. I for one don't agree that Windows is this stupid. On the other 
hand, every platform, especially when you're including the operating 
system layer, the application layer and the access technology layer, is 
going to have bugs. Just as I wouldn't say IOS is that stupid because of 
this focus bug in IOS 8.1, I also wouldn't call another platform or 
operating system stupid. Maybe it's because I have too much respect for 
other operating system developers, or maybe I just think it's 
hipocritical to take offense when someone unfairly criticizes IOS and 
then turn around and do the same thing to another platform.

Re: accessible app to determine horizontal level

2014-10-24 Thread RobH.
The iPhone 6 is meant to do this anyway.

But variations on a plumb bob spring to mind, another DIY project.Set 
squares are wonderful things for this,  and measureing is a delicate 
ticklish business at the best of times.  I still like doing this, though 
hardly cost effective these days.

Hello listers
Is there an accessible app to determine horizontal levels? I do some

horizontal.

Re: adding music to i phone manually

2014-10-24 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I seem to get the same audible notifications when using iTunes that I've 
always gotten.


Using NVDA and iTunes on Windows, I usually tab over to something that 
says something like LCD status text area and if I leave focus there, 
NVDA automatically reads out the status as it changes. If the transfer 
is quick enough, this may not help, but I do this whenever I'm doing an 
IOS update, and I find it very helpful and reassuring.


I'm not sure when I first noticed it, but I now have a button that says 
something like Only sync checked songs. When I go over to the list of 
artists, I use the context menu to see if an artist is checked or not. I 
only check the artists I want synced to my iPhone and after checking the 
artists I want (or actually unchecking the artists I don't want since 
the default is that they're checked) then when I sync with my iPhone 
only those artists that are still checked will end up on my iPhone.


I'm not sure how helpful this is. I can't check the actual wording of 
these fields and buttons at the moment since I'm not in Windows right now.

Re: accessible app to determine horizontal level

2014-10-24 Thread RobH.
Ok, fiddled, it's pretty good.

Use the edge, not the flat back.  Then it told me a positive or negative 
number.  I used the long edge, and it said horizontal;  I stood it on end 
and it said vertical.  with it facing me, the number quoted seemed to quote 
the number for the low end, I'm avoiding saying left and right.  But since 
the long edge is better for accuracy, putting it against something 
horizontal or vertical does get the right response and does seem consistent 
with it's finding.
Don't use the edge with buttons on.


Fancy having something that useful without knowing!

  Hi,

  Actually, I believe it only gives a left and right level.  I assume you 
could turn the Iphone so that it is edge on to you so it would represent the 
level to you and away from you.  I have never thought about this til now.

  I just tried laying my phone flat on a table and then lifting each of the 
4 sides slightly and it does seem to give level readings on all side.  I am 
unsure how to interpret this but maybe you can figure it out.

The compass app in utilities will do this.  Just tap the spirit level

 When you click on it there's a labeled button that says read, which will

Re: i tunes 12 and adding music manually

Somewhere in iTunes there is a setting to sync all songs in a selected
folder. This was how I ultimately solved the issue of transferring and
syncing music. After that, I was able to delete songs and clean up the
library over time. Sorry but I don't recall where that option is but
if you look in the main music window or in the Settings dialog box,
you should find it.

It used to be that when I flicked up once on a message thread, the option

It would archive the thread.

Now, since I updated to OS 8. Threads, and I believe individual messages as
well, are going into the 'trash' of gmail even though the archive folder is
set to all mail, and in the  move discarded messages heding, I have
'archive mailbox, all mail' selected.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

RE: accessible app to determine horizontal level

Don't both long edges on the new phones have buttons on them?

Subject: Re: accessible app to determine horizontal level

Ok, fiddled, it's pretty good.

Use the edge, not the flat back.  Then it told me a positive or negative 
number.  I used the long edge, and it said horizontal;  I stood it on end and 
it said vertical.  with it facing me, the number quoted seemed to quote the 
number for the low end, I'm avoiding saying left and right.  But since the long 
edge is better for accuracy, putting it against something horizontal or 
vertical does get the right response and does seem consistent with it's finding.
Don't use the edge with buttons on.


Fancy having something that useful without knowing!

  Hi,

  Actually, I believe it only gives a left and right level.  I assume you 
could turn the Iphone so that it is edge on to you so it would represent the 
level to you and away from you.  I have never thought about this til now.

  I just tried laying my phone flat on a table and then lifting each of the 
4 sides slightly and it does seem to give level readings on all side.  I am 
unsure how to interpret this but maybe you can figure it out.

  Hello Dan
  Thanks, This seems to be very handy but perhaps you can answer one 
question. How do I determine which value is which i.e. when I place the 
iPhone on a flat surface there is the level from left to right and the level 
to me and away from me if that makes sense. I suppose both these readings 
would appear on the screen.

Hi,

The compass app in utilities will do this.  Just tap the spirit level

Subject: Re: adding music to i phone manually

I seem to get the same audible notifications when using iTunes that I've 
always gotten.

Using NVDA and iTunes on Windows, I usually tab over to something that 
says something like LCD status text area and if I leave focus there, 
NVDA automatically reads out the status as it changes. If the transfer 
is quick enough, this may not help, but I do this whenever I'm doing an 
IOS update, and I find it very helpful and reassuring.

I'm not sure when I first noticed it, but I now have a button that says 
something like Only sync checked songs. When I go over to the list of 
artists, I use the context menu to see if an artist is checked or not. I 
only check the artists I want synced to my iPhone and after checking the 
artists I want (or actually unchecking the artists I don't want since 
the default is that they're checked) then when I sync with my iPhone 
only those artists that are still checked will end up on my iPhone.

I'm not sure how helpful this is. I can't check the actual wording of 
these fields and buttons at the moment since I'm not in Windows right now.

 give you an audible indicator that it is transferring or one that sounds

 letting you know when things are happening audibly.

Once again, if you want to read a message where this happens, just reply to the 
message after you restart Outlook. You can then read the message in your reply 
email and if you don't want to actually send a reply just escape out of that 
and delete the message, but at least you can read it that way.

I just read several dozens of viPhone messages without problem, avoiding all

Passing this on in case it may help others.

Yes there is a way to do this.

Then you should see you're return and delete options. 
Then on the overdrive website it says that in the  legacy version of the app 
you can double tap the more icon to show the return and delete options. 
 Then it says that you can return a book to the library  with also deletes it 
from you're device. 
You can delete  a book from you're device  but it will still be checked out to 
you're library. 
 
In other words it really doesn't tell me how to  return the book  before the

HQ voice for the 4S?

2014-10-24 Thread Donald L. Roberts
My 4S is still running IOS 7.1.2 although I may upgrade at some point.  
Is there an HQ voice which is either already on the 4S or one which can 
be downloaded?


In most situations, the compact voice is fine.  But when reading a 
Kindle book, I would prefer a better voice if available.  What are my 
options?


Thanks.

The triple click home might not be set if updated, worth going into

Hi Louana. There are a few ways of turning Voiceover off. One is to do a
triple click of the home button, or you can ask Siri to turn it off for you.

If you're near a computer, I think you can turn it off with iTunes. HTH.

so on. What you can't run with the 4S is the new Alex voice, it only works on 
phones which have the 64 Bit processor and in the iPhone family that is only 
the 5S, 6 and 6 Plus.

Subject: HQ voice for the 4S?

My 4S is still running IOS 7.1.2 although I may upgrade at some point.  
Is there an HQ voice which is either already on the 4S or one which can be 
downloaded?

In most situations, the compact voice is fine.  But when reading a Kindle book, 
I would prefer a better voice if available.  What are my options?

Thanks.

Don Roberts

RE: adding music to i phone manually

2014-10-24 Thread David Redman
On a full size keyboard for a pc the key just to the left of the right hand 
control key is called the menu key or the right click key. Sometimes called the 
context menu key. It performs the same action as right clicking on an item.

I seem to get the same audible notifications when using iTunes that I've 
always gotten.

Using NVDA and iTunes on Windows, I usually tab over to something that 
says something like LCD status text area and if I leave focus there, 
NVDA automatically reads out the status as it changes. If the transfer 
is quick enough, this may not help, but I do this whenever I'm doing an 
IOS update, and I find it very helpful and reassuring.

I'm not sure when I first noticed it, but I now have a button that says 
something like Only sync checked songs. When I go over to the list of 
artists, I use the context menu to see if an artist is checked or not. I 
only check the artists I want synced to my iPhone and after checking the 
artists I want (or actually unchecking the artists I don't want since 
the default is that they're checked) then when I sync with my iPhone 
only those artists that are still checked will end up on my iPhone.

I'm not sure how helpful this is. I can't check the actual wording of 
these fields and buttons at the moment since I'm not in Windows right now.

 Well, now I have to admit I just figured it out. I can now transfer
 individual songs from an album by finding the list of songs not the name
 of the album and then selecting all. Use the menu key and then add to
 play list and select my phone. What confused me is that I tunes does not
 give you an audible indicator that it is transferring or one that sounds
 when it is done as it used to do. I tunes is not very consistant with
 letting you know when things are happening audibly.

Large text in calendar events is no more in 8.1.

To all make use of the large text. I've noticed that in calendar events don't 
come up using large text anymore. Mail, contacts, and notes, all features a 
large text but not calendar events. I'm pretty sure that in previous OS's, that 
it used to be the case. I sent an email to accessibil...@apple.com to let them

hi,

Since I've seen posts before about bluetooth divices I hope this isn't too 
off topic but,  I have seen some say they have this bluetooth divice.  I 
have figured out how to work it pretty good but, could anyone who has one 
and is more experienced than me isthre a way to activate seri from the 
divice itself without using the home button onthe iPhone?  I know some 
bluetooths have this but, I can't figure  out how to do it withthis 
bluetooth.  I've tried holding down the answer/hangup button onthe left side 
of the  bluetooth but, all that does is call backthe last person I called.


Thanks for help,

Bluetooth and handwriting issues in 8.1

2014-10-24 Thread Denny Schwab
Hello,

I took the plunge and upgraded to 8.1.  Now I have two issues I have found.

1.  When using my bluetooth keyboard, even if quick nav is off, the
keyboard will not work in an edit field.  I need to cycle quick nav
back on, then off, and hit a space bar to start the keyboard working.
Then I can remove that space and type normally.

2.  When using handwriting in an edit field, I cannot change the mode
from lower-case to upper-case or any other option.  To do so I need to
first enter a letter in lower-case. Then I can change the mode and
delete that character if desired.

Anyone else having these issues?

Thanks,

Denny

Re: Bluetooth and handwriting issues in 8.1

2014-10-24 Thread Wayne Merritt
I am having the handwriting issue on an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1. It
is very annoying to say the least, but I didn't think of writing
something in lower case and then erasing and switching to upper. I
usually prefer uppercase anyway since I'm more confident when I need
to draw the larger letters. Anyway, email Apple Accessibility and
remind them. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Hi Wendy, but what are you actually trying to achieve that you're now not
able to? Other than not seeing the device listed, is there something not
working the way you want?

Hi Wendy, if you just log in to the iTunes or App Store from your phone and
download a purchase or make a new one, that should do it.

Siri Launching Issues

2014-10-24 Thread Brian Fischler
Hey all,

Not sure if this is an IOS 8.1 issue or device specific issue. I am noticing a 
lot of times every day when I press the home button to launch Siri nothing 
happens. I can touch the screen and Siri is running but no matter how many 
times I tap the listen now button on the screen nothing. Additionally I am 
having issues often enough when I do a two finger double tap in a text field to 
begin dictating something. I can also hit the dictate now button and nothing 
either. I am using an iPhone 5s and this would happen periodically in IOS 7 but 
not as bad as this. The only thing that gets Siri working again is a reset of 
the phone and it happens at least 65% of the time when I try to use Siri or 
dictate. Any thoughts?

Re: AccessNote was Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote

2014-10-24 Thread Chris Chaffin
Hello Richard,

Do not worry about it.  You were just honestly trying to help out.  We all make 
mistakes.
It is true, Access Note is now free in the app store, but ever since ios 8, all 
of the reports are that it is no longer accessible.  I do not know if this is a 
ios bug, or a bug with Access Note.  Since there has not been any updates since 
November 2013, my fear is that once Access Note went free, that meant that AFB 
will no longer be updating the app.  Therefore, if it is a bug in Access Note, 
then it will never be fixed.  I do not know if I will get a response, but I do 
plan on writing Access Note support to let them know of the problems, plus to 
see if they plan on updating the app to work with ios 8.

I have been looking and trying out different apps to replace Access Note, now 
one that does let you access any folder in your dropbox is Nebulous.  Now there 
is a small cost for this app, but it does have all of the same features as 
Access Note plus a few more, plus, it is totally accessible with voiceover.
For a free choice that is voiceover accessible is Plain Text.  Now when you 
first set up dropbox to sync with this app, it will ask you if you want it to 
access all folders or just its own folder.  There is an in app purchase to get 
rid of ads and support the developers, but the ads are not in the way at all, 
so it is a personal preference.
Since I am still checking out both of these apps, I do not know everything 
about them yet, but I know there are other list members that use both of these 
apps.  And of coarse, you can find both of them in the app store.

Chris

 Apparently what I was seeing was a list of my apps in my productivity folder.
 AccessNote is not working at all under iOS 8. At least, not to add a note. 
 When I hit add, it is taking me out of accessnote.
 But, thanks to iOS 8, it happens so fast and silently that I thought I was 
 seeing a menu.
 Like I said, I have not used the app that much.
 Sorry for the wild goose chase.
 Whatever you do, don't upgrade to iOS 8 just yet.

 I hope it starts to work better with ios 8, since there has been previous

 just in case, I am checking out a couple of other apps.

 Under the Accessnote settings the Dropbox sync is on.
 Do you have a sync button on the main screen? Did you double tap on that?
 I can't think of anything else that would explain this.
 I don't recall any thing different in setting it up.
 If nothing else works, maybe deleting the app and reinstalling it would

Re: Siri Launching Issues

2014-10-24 Thread Christina C.
I am on an iPhone 5S and I am having Siri launching issues as well but they are 
different than yours. In short, when I go to launch Siri via the home button I 
get the Familiar Siri is listening sound followed by an abrupt bong, then 
nothing...Siri is not listening or working. The only fix I have been able to 
reproduce is to go back to my home screen. So far, it seems to happen if I try 
to initiate Siri within any app like Safari or messages. It seems as though 
Siri will only work if I am at my home screen. :(

I also was having problems with dictation. I'm not sure yet if the problem is 
fixed yet because I haven't played with it much yet. I could not get a 
two-finger double tap to initiate dictation. Then just yesterday, I tried a 
single finger double tap on the actual dictation button. Then a message popped 
up asking me if I wanted to enable dictation and I chose to do so. It seems to 
be working now. I've only used it once since then. Go into settings and make 
sure dictation is enabled because now, we have the option to enable Siri and 
dictation separately .

Re: some more bugs with 8.1

2014-10-24 Thread Bill Gallik
There a number of apps that will not immediately clear the SEARCH field. 
However, I've found that if you deploy the CLEAR button a second time you 
should encounter a DISMISS button; subsequently tapping this button will 
clear the SEARCH field -- at least this seems to be a consistent work-around 
on my iPhone 5 (iOS 8.0).

Ok, fiddled, it's pretty good.

Use the edge, not the flat back.  Then it told me a positive or negative 
number.  I used the long edge, and it said horizontal;  I stood it on end 
and it said vertical.  with it facing me, the number quoted seemed to quote 
the number for the low end, I'm avoiding saying left and right.  But since 
the long edge is better for accuracy, putting it against something 
horizontal or vertical does get the right response and does seem consistent 
with it's finding.
Don't use the edge with buttons on.


Fancy having something that useful without knowing!

  Hi,

  Actually, I believe it only gives a left and right level.  I assume you
could turn the Iphone so that it is edge on to you so it would represent the
level to you and away from you.  I have never thought about this til now.

  I just tried laying my phone flat on a table and then lifting each of the
4 sides slightly and it does seem to give level readings on all side.  I am
unsure how to interpret this but maybe you can figure it out.

  Hello Dan
  Thanks, This seems to be very handy but perhaps you can answer one
question. How do I determine which value is which i.e. when I place the
iPhone on a flat surface there is the level from left to right and the level
to me and away from me if that makes sense. I suppose both these readings
would appear on the screen.

Hi,

The compass app in utilities will do this.  Just tap the spirit level
and it will do just that.  I use it to make sure pictures and other things
are level.  It isn't absolutely 100% accurate but it is very close.

Sounds like it is not device specific. Sorry to hear others are having this 
issue, and yes, I had enabled dictate in the settings, but the issues are still

off when this happened and Siri still would not work so it might not be a VO

 I also was having problems with dictation. I'm not sure yet if the problem is

Re: Curious if iPhones are totally useless if you are not on Wifi

2014-10-24 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

If you have a good connection, LTE or 4G should work fine. I've downloaded 
music, used my phone as a hot spot, used GPS apps that needed data, and watched 
a Space Shuttle lift-off. Of course, if you have a weak signal, all bets are 
off with any device. Even if it's an LTE signal, if it's only one bar, it may 
very well not work. But with a reasonable signal, you should be fine. My guess 
is that you simply didn't have a very good signal for some reason. Too bad, 
though - it sounds like a very unpleasant experience.

Best,

The iOS 8.1 thread - maybe we should stop replying to it

2014-10-24 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello Rose and others,

 

Just a suggestion, but since so many of us are having issues with that iOS
8.1 thread causing Outlook and at least in one message I read Thunderbird
not to respond, maybe everybody should just stop replying to it as this
perpetuates the issue. In any case, replying to that thread to discuss the
problem really isn't part of the iOS 8.1 topic and as Raul reminded us
all, it's always a good idea to take a moment to see if a reply really
should be in a thread with a particular subject.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

RE: Siri Launching Issues

2014-10-24 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Brian and Isaac,

Could it be that SIRI volume is turned down all the way so that SIRI
launches but you don't hear the tones? I would try and ask SIRI something
like What is the time and then when you think SIRI is giving the answer
press the volume up button repeatedly.

Sieghard

 Hey all,
 
 Not sure if this is an IOS 8.1 issue or device specific issue. I am
noticing a lot of times every day when I press the home button to launch
Siri nothing happens. I can touch the screen and Siri is running but no
matter how many times I tap the listen now button on the screen nothing.
Additionally I am having issues often enough when I do a two finger double
tap in a text field to begin dictating something. I can also hit the dictate
now button and nothing either. I am using an iPhone 5s and this would happen
periodically in IOS 7 but not as bad as this. The only thing that gets Siri
working again is a reset of the phone and it happens at least 65% of the
time when I try to use Siri or dictate. Any thoughts?

Re: Curious if iPhones are totally useless if you are not on Wifi

2014-10-24 Thread Wayne Merritt
When I used the iPhone 5 on ATT, there were times when LTE crawled
and was very slow. At those times, when I noticed it, I went into
settings and turned LTE off. It seemed like I got faster speed when I
was on 4G. I haven't noticed any slow LTE signals on my iPhone 6, but
I also haven't been on LTE too much with wifi at both home and work.

Sorry to hear of your experience,
Wayne

 Hi,

 If you have a good connection, LTE or 4G should work fine. I've downloaded
 music, used my phone as a hot spot, used GPS apps that needed data, and
 watched a Space Shuttle lift-off. Of course, if you have a weak signal, all
 bets are off with any device. Even if it's an LTE signal, if it's only one
 bar, it may very well not work. But with a reasonable signal, you should be
 fine. My guess is that you simply didn't have a very good signal for some
 reason. Too bad, though - it sounds like a very unpleasant experience.

 Regardless of FaceTime the fact that apps take forever to load when not on

RE: Curious if iPhones are totally useless if you are not on Wifi

2014-10-24 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Brian,

I live in a small town in northern British Columbia, Canada, and we don't have 
LTE yet, only 3G. I can, however, easily make Facetime and Skype calls over 3G 
and sometimes it's actually way faster to download Audible books via 3G than it 
is via my WiFi although I think there is another issue at work here since I 
have a relatively fast internet connection at home, 25 Mb down and 5 up.
I have noticed however that when I am in Vancouver or other places where there 
is LTE that it is way faster than what most people have at home as far as 
internet goes. In Vancouver last time I did a speedtest and had 42 Mb down and 
23 Mb up, that's awesomely fast especially for the upload speed.
I would recommend you get the Speedtest app from OOKLA, that is the same as the 
www.speedtest.net website, and check what sort of speed you are getting when 
you are on LTE. I would, however, say that if your phone shows you have LTE 
coverage that there is something wrong since it should easily handle Facetime. 
Incidently I have often done just what you described, called my Mom or another 
friend when I dropped something and couldn't find it any more.

Now, as for SIRI not knowing who your Mom was, I would go to Settings, General 
and SIRI and check that your contact is selected there because otherwise SIRI 
doesn't know who you are and hence doesn't know who any of your relationships 
are.

I have very few issues with SIRI here in Canada except that occasionally an 
answer gets cut off. Whenever I went to the States (once or twice a year) I 
always found SIRI doesn't work as good there, maybe it's because there are so 
many more people in the States than in Canada and it's a server capacity issue.


Regards,
Sieghard

speech option wasn't there yet. I can't remember how to exactly do it, but 
wasn't the Way of getting the high-quality voices going into settings general 
accessibility voiceover and then languages and dialects?

In iOS seven, the place to go to change the quality of your voice is 
settings/general/accessibility/VoiceOver/languages and dialects. The new speech 
option only appears in iOS 8.

RE: Siri Launching Issues

2014-10-24 Thread Paul and Paula Jordan
Hi all. Just for your information, I'm not at all sure that the SIRI issues
are related to IOS 8 or 8.1.  I'm  using an IPhone 4s running 7.1.2 and
having issues with SIRI cutting off halfway through a request or not
responding at all.  I also have a friend who has an IPhone 5 running 7.1.2
with the same sort of SIRI glitches. I wonder if it's a server problem as
opposed to an IOS issue. Just a thought.
God bless!

I am on an iPhone 5S and I am having Siri launching issues as well but they
are different than yours. In short, when I go to launch Siri via the home
button I get the Familiar Siri is listening sound followed by an abrupt
bong, then nothing...Siri is not listening or working. The only fix I have
been able to reproduce is to go back to my home screen. So far, it seems to
happen if I try to initiate Siri within any app like Safari or messages. It
seems as though Siri will only work if I am at my home screen. :(

I also was having problems with dictation. I'm not sure yet if the problem
is fixed yet because I haven't played with it much yet. I could not get a
two-finger double tap to initiate dictation. Then just yesterday, I tried a
single finger double tap on the actual dictation button. Then a message
popped up asking me if I wanted to enable dictation and I chose to do so. It
seems to be working now. I've only used it once since then. Go into settings
and make sure dictation is enabled because now, we have the option to enable
Siri and dictation separately .

matter how many times I tap the listen now button on the screen nothing.
Additionally I am having issues often enough when I do a two finger double
tap in a text field to begin dictating something. I can also hit the dictate
now button and nothing either. I am using an iPhone 5s and this would happen
periodically in IOS 7 but not as bad as this. The only thing that gets Siri

time when I try to use Siri or dictate. Any thoughts?

Hey all,

I am curious are iPhones pretty much useless unless you are on wifi? I had 
heard from some people that 4G and LED are almost as good as wifi, but I 
have always noticed a lot of apps take forever to load if I am not on wifi 
or crap out. I was just coming home from the store and the bag my stuff was 
in ripped and I was so proud of myself as I thought I could FaceTime with my 
Mom to help me find everything as I was in no man’s land with no one around. 
I pressed the hold button to launch Siri said call Mom, and got what is your 
Mom’s name? Are you kidding me, yes, before today I have called my Mom, and 
she is listed on my iPhone as Mom, after three times of Siri asking what my 
Mom’s name was, I called her manually. Then I asked her to FaceTime and go 
figure even though I clicked answer FaceTime would not work and I was on 
LED. I thought FaceTime worked on LED now? Regardless of FaceTime the fact 
that apps take forever to load when not on Wifi and I am on ATT are others 
having an awful experience when not on Wifi? Eventually someone walked by 
and picked up my stuffs neither my foot sweep of the area nor my guide dog 
found anything.

 Hello Richard,
 
 Do not worry about it.  You were just honestly trying to help out.  We all 
 make mistakes.
 It is true, Access Note is now free in the app store, but ever since ios 8, 
 all of the reports are that it is no longer accessible.  I do not know if 
 this is a ios bug, or a bug with Access Note.  Since there has not been any 
 updates since November 2013, my fear is that once Access Note went free, that 
 meant that AFB will no longer be updating the app.  Therefore, if it is a bug 
 in Access Note, then it will never be fixed.  I do not know if I will get a 
 response, but I do plan on writing Access Note support to let them know of 
 the problems, plus to see if they plan on updating the app to work with ios 8.
 
 I have been looking and trying out different apps to replace Access Note, now 
 one that does let you access any folder in your dropbox is Nebulous.  Now 
 there is a small costfor this app, but it does have all of the same 
 features as Access Note plus a few more, plus, it is totally accessible with 
 voiceover.
 For a free choice that is voiceover accessible is Plain Text.  Now when you 
 first set up dropbox to sync with this app, it will ask you if you want it to 
 access all folders or just its own folder.  There is an in app purchase to 
 get rid of ads and support the developers, but the ads are not in the way at 
 all, so it is a personal preference.
 Since I am still checking out both of these apps, I do not know everything 
 about them yet, but I know there are other list members that use both of 
 these apps.  And of coarse, you can find both of them in the app store.

 AccessNote is not working at all under iOS 8. At least, not to add a note. 
 When I hit add, it is taking me out of accessnote.
 But, thanks to iOS 8, it happens so fast and silently that I thought I was

 Like I said, I have not used the app that much.
 Sorry for the wild goose chase.
 Whatever you do, don't upgrade to iOS 8 just yet.

 like to compair the two to determin if it's worth the extra megs using alix. 
 I want to appolojise  forthis thread. I know it was discussed a lot  earlier 
 but, I can't recall how it  works.
 
 thanks,
 Billy Maynard

Re: HQ voice for the 4S?

2014-10-24 Thread Donald L. Roberts
Thanks for that info.  Voice over is the one place I did not go because 
I was concerned about disabling it and not being able to bring it back.  
Although now that I think of it, I guess I could have turned it back on 
using Siri if necessary.

Where exactly did you check? The option is in Settings, General, Accessibility, 
Voiceover. Once you are there go to Speech, then double tap on the default

Re: Reading .rtf files on the iPhone

Hi. I'm having a weird issues with Word files in Dropbox where the
first letter of each line of the document is cut off and doesn't show.
I can read text files without any difficulty but for some reason this
happens with Word documents. I would love to keep using Word documents
since Dropbox can now remember my last position if I go to the status
bar on my Braille display or go to another app, and my place isn't

I am on an iPhone 5S and I am having Siri launching issues as well but they
are different than yours. In short, when I go to launch Siri via the home
button I get the Familiar Siri is listening sound followed by an abrupt
bong, then nothing...Siri is not listening or working. The only fix I have
been able to reproduce is to go back to my home screen. So far, it seems to
happen if I try to initiate Siri within any app like Safari or messages. It
seems as though Siri will only work if I am at my home screen. :(

I also was having problems with dictation. I'm not sure yet if the problem
is fixed yet because I haven't played with it much yet. I could not get a
two-finger double tap to initiate dictation. Then just yesterday, I tried a
single finger double tap on the actual dictation button. Then a message
popped up asking me if I wanted to enable dictation and I chose to do so. It
seems to be working now. I've only used it once since then. Go into settings
and make sure dictation is enabled because now, we have the option to enable
Siri and dictation separately .

Re: adding music to i phone manually

2014-10-24 Thread Christopher Chaltain
You can bring up the context menu by hitting the applications key on 
most Windows keyboards or the Shift+F10 combination. The context menu 
brings up actions you can take specific to the current object that has 
focus. I often forget it, but it's a good habit to look at the context 
menus when exploring a new application to see what actions you can get 
to quickly.


Ah, I haven't done a file transfer since moving up to iTunes 12. I've 
just done syncing, so that's why I'm still hearing the same tones I've 
always heard.

I seem to get the same audible notifications when using iTunes that I've
always gotten.

Using NVDA and iTunes on Windows, I usually tab over to something that
says something like LCD status text area and if I leave focus there,
NVDA automatically reads out the status as it changes. If the transfer
is quick enough, this may not help, but I do this whenever I'm doing an
IOS update, and I find it very helpful and reassuring.

I'm not sure when I first noticed it, but I now have a button that says
something like Only sync checked songs. When I go over to the list of
artists, I use the context menu to see if an artist is checked or not. I
only check the artists I want synced to my iPhone and after checking the
artists I want (or actually unchecking the artists I don't want since
the default is that they're checked) then when I sync with my iPhone
only those artists that are still checked will end up on my iPhone.

I'm not sure how helpful this is. I can't check the actual wording of
these fields and buttons at the moment since I'm not in Windows right now.

  Hello Richard,


  Do not worry about it.  You were just honestly trying to help out.  We 
all make mistakes.
  It is true, Access Note is now free in the app store, but ever since ios 
8, all of the reports are that it is no longer accessible.  I do not know if 
this is a ios bug, or a bug with Access Note.  Since there has not been any 
updates since November 2013, my fear is that once Access Note went free, that 
meant that AFB will no longer be updating the app.  Therefore, if it is a bug 
in Access Note, then it will never be fixed.  I do not know if I will get a 
response, but I do plan on writing Access Note support to let them know of the 
problems, plus to see if they plan on updating the app to work with ios 8.


  I have been looking and trying out different apps to replace Access Note, 
now one that does let you access any folder in your dropbox is Nebulous.  Now 
there is a small cost for this app, but it does have all of the same features 
as Access Note plus a few more, plus, it is totally accessible with voiceover.
  For a free choice that is voiceover accessible is Plain Text.  Now when 
you first set up dropbox to sync with this app, it will ask you if you want it 
to access all folders or just its own folder.  There is an in app purchase to 
get rid of ads and support the developers, but the ads are not in the way at 
all, so it is a personal preference.
  Since I am still checking out both of these apps, I do not know 
everything about them yet, but I know there are other list members that use 
both of these apps.  And of coarse, you can find both of them in the app store.

AccessNote is not working at all under iOS 8. At least, not to add a

But, thanks to iOS 8, it happens so fast and silently that I thought I

Like I said, I have not used the app that much.
Sorry for the wild goose chase.
Whatever you do, don't upgrade to iOS 8 just yet.

Re: AccessNote was Re: Reading Dropbox Files with AccessNote

2014-10-24 Thread Chris Chaffin
Hello Bill,
Access Note automatically list the files that are in the access note dropbox 
folder.  Of coarse, in order for Access Note to access your dropbox, be sure to 
go into the settings of Access Note and sign in.
Now, Access Note does not automatically update the files in dropbox, in order 
to do this, you have to double tap the sync button on the main screen.  As long 
as you do this, any changes you make will be done in dropbox.

I hope this helps,
Chris

This is a curious problem.  

I am posting to let you all know that, while I'm not exactly proud of it as I 
have not yet updated to the latest version, I am using, along with my beloved 
Apple Mail, Outlook 2007 and have experienced no hang-ups or freeze-ups so the 
problem must be limited to Outlook 2010 and 2013.  

For the record, I have opened the problem thread with Outlook before first 
having opened it on my Mac, just to make certain that Outlook 2007 was having 
no problems with it.

Just an F Y I.

Re: Bluetooth Headset Profiles?

2014-10-24 Thread Katey Glass
I had the 700's and 750's and both are just as responsive.  I tried the 730's 
and they were just awful!  I wound up giving them to my fiance who's a 
non-voice over user.  

These headphones LG HBS 750 can be purchased on Amazon.  We got them from 
Verizon locally so I'd guess you can pick them up at any local place, in fact I 
saw them at Radio Shack as well.  I'm very glad that LG fixed what ever it 
broke in the 730's which caused it to not work right with VO, but then again 
I'd read reviews of sighted people who had problems while listening to 
streaming music when it would cut in and out between songs, but Mike never 
complained of this!

Add *any* folder to main folders list in Mail in iOS8

2014-10-24 Thread Alex Hall
Hi all,
In iOS7, you could go to the list of folders and accounts in iOS Mail, hit 
Edit, and choose unread, flagged, or a few other mailboxes you wanted to 
appear in that main list. As far as I know, though, you couldn't choose a 
folder from inside any account, only the folders iOS offered. In iOS8, though, 
I was just able to add my iCloud account's Apple folder to the list, meaning I 
no longer need to dig into my iCloud account just to get to it, saving a couple 
steps. This is really great!

One word of warning: VoiceOver doesn't seem to indicate the selected folder. I 
double tapped Apple in my list of folders to add it, and I was not told it was 
selected. I hit Done anyway, hit it again t exit the list of accounts, and the 
folder appeared (this will make more sense if you try the process). So, it 
works fine, but VoiceOver doesn't seem to know which folder you select. The 
system does, it just isn't spoken.

Re: can't turn voice over off, help

2014-10-24 Thread Shawn Krasniuk
Don't forget you can turn on voice over with Siri as well. You don't need to 
necessarily go into settings to turn it on.

 The triple click home might not be set if updated, worth going into
 accessibility to check that.  Meanwhile, Siri is a reliable option... 
 usually.

 Hi Louana. There are a few ways of turning Voiceover off. One is to do a
 triple click of the home button, or you can ask Siri to turn it off for you.
 
 If you're near a computer, I think you can turn it off with iTunes. HTH.

was Re: Is it time to upgrade? now is bug with email attachments IOS 8.1

2014-10-24 Thread Shai
Hello Alex,
Could you please explain what you mean by a three finger scroll
gesture? I tried a three finger flick up and a three finger flick
down;however, this merely announces what page I am on of that specific
email and I am still unable to double tap on attachments.

On 10/23/14, Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com wrote:
 The bug with attachments is part of the larger focus problem that persists
 in 8.1. Use three-finger scrolling to get down to the part of the message
 with the attachment, so that you cn touch (instead of flick to) the
 attachment. Now, double tapping should work as expected.

 Hello,
 Another bug that I have seen from my experience is being able to open
 a Word attachment in the mail app with VoiceOver.
 When one opens the email and double taps on the attachment, nothing
 seems to occur. Simlarly, when one double taps and holds to receive
 the open in dialogue, it is not received.
 I mentioned it on here to see whether there was a setting that I was
 missing, but have not received any replies on this so far.

Re: seeing purchases, family sharing

2014-10-24 Thread Traci Duncan
Thanks, I have my eye on a inexpensive app, so we’ll give that a try.  I 
thought it was the credit card that mattered.  All pass  future purchases must 
be made with the same credit card.  If it only has to do with the apple ID, 
than the app should definitely show up.

I understand moving forward with new features and such, it is just a bummer 
that even devices running ios7 aren’t eligible for family sharing.  Usually it 
is older devices being left behind.

Traci

On Oct 23, 2014, at 5:29 PM, Jonathan Mosen jmo...@mosen.org wrote:

 Hi Tracey, the credit card used shouldn't have an impact. What counts is the 
 account from which an app was purchased, and whether that Apple ID is now a 
 part of the family group.
 There have been some instances where Family Sharing doesn't fully work until 
 a member makes a purchase or gets a new free app.
 Family Sharing works just fine for Windows users with iTunes 12 and above.
 I don't think it is realistic to ask Apple to go back into previous versions 
 of the operating system and add a new feature to it. That would set one heck 
 of a precedent for no good reason. New features are added all the time and 
 that's what we all hope for when we get OS upgrades.

 Hi all,
 
 We have 2 devices in the house with ios8.  This morning I set up family 
 sharing and wanted to find the previously purchased app Looktell money 
 reader.  I double checked on the app store and look tell says yes for family 
 sharing, however I am not seeing it under family sharing purchases.
 
 My only guess here, is maybe a different credit card was used, since it was 
 purchased such a long time ago?  Or what if a iTunes gift card was used, how 
 does that effect things?
 
 Do you guys have any suggestions?
 
 A little side, personal note, I think it sucks that family sharing only 
 works on ios8 devices  up or osx10.10.  That leaves a lot of devices in the 
 cold, and how about windows users -- what do they do?
 
 Thanks,
 Traci
