Tips for Playing Hanging With Friends

[Brandon A. Olivares]

Hello,

I just got this app, and am trying to use it. I’m just not understanding how it 
works. Sometimes it seems to layer dialogs on top of one another, so it’s hard 
to navigate.

When I give a word and the other person is solving it, it doesn’t tell me 
whether they got it right or not. I’m not seeing a way to find this out.

Any tips for playing this game would be appreciated.

Peace,
Brandon

Re: iTunes radio not working in version 8.1.1

[Woody Anna Dresner]

Hi Hope,

Once iTunes Radio is open, you need to choose or create a station. There are 
iTunes featured stations at the top, and then a My Stations section. If you 
already have a station you want to hear, double-tap it to start playing. 
Otherwise, type an artist or song name in the search box to create a station 
based on that song or artist.

Best,
Anna

Re: apps that record in stereo?

[Feliciano G]

I don't know of any.I got this from Jeff Thompson from blind abilities.
Jeff Thompson, 9:20 PM, Hey, I like your page on Facebook. The cheap ones are 
the tascam IM2.
I should actually try that Mike again as things may have changed but it used to 
be that it shuts off voiceover from being heard.some people like using 
non-microphone headphones while using that MikeI think it records well if 
you're recording loud noises such as a concert a sports game or a raging 
girlfriend yelling. Just saying.,

RE: Adding audio books

[Cristóbal]

I do indeed sort my audiobooks this way and when I want to read something, I 
just go and zip a particular title to upload via Voice Dream. I find iTunes 
best for managing my media and I like being able to sort by genre, artist and 
album title. The actual audiobook playing on the otherhand, is very lacking 
with i-devices and the native app. Anyway, I use the control+I keyboard command 
to edit tags if I havent’ already done so with MP3Tag before importing the book 
to begin with.

I understand where you’re coming from, but ever since I learned to change the 
Meta tag information, stuff like that simply hasn’t happened, and you can 
change that sort of information too, simply by utilizing that same Get Info 
dialog box, and, of course, making sure that the shuffle feature isn’t on in 
your music player.

 

Just thought I’d offer an alternative.

Hi. 

 

I have chosen to use a third party app to play audio books because I frequently 
found audio books that had the attributes changed and played through the music 
player wouldn’t always play in the correct order.  I found that I had to use 
something like audio book binder or builder or mp3 to iPod converter to make 
the audio book in to a long file.  Now I can simply zip up my file and import 
it in to voice dream reader.  Much less time consuming and every book I have 
tried so far plays in order.

Hi Fanus,

My WiFi at home is ADSL hence it has nothing to do with my cellular data limit. 
That means that as long as I am connected to my WiFi at home or at work my 
cellular data is not being used and while I think there is a limit to how much 
data I can use on my ADSL, it is so high that it's never been an issue.
. I don't know what arrangement you have. WiFi can also use cellular data if 
you are using some sort of hot spot or smarthub, but like I said, that is 
something you probably know. When you say you have "WiFi which allows me to 
connect to the cell network for internet purposes" that sounds to me like you 
are using cellular data for everything.

  go to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to
  Apps. Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a
  list of apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be
  one of these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your

I've even listened to audiobooks via Downcast. Not since Voice Dream introduced 
the MP3 option though. Still, the option is still there.

Hi Victor,

First of all, there are no more tabs in iTunes 12. What used to be the Options 
tab is now a button aklthough changing media type still works more or less the 
same. 

I do, however, agree that Voice Dream is a superior experience when it comes to 
audio books. If you use the built-in music app you still have to add the book 
to iTunes and go through all the steps of finding all the files and changing 
them to be recognized as an audio book. With Voice Dream all you have to do is 
select all the files and zip them, then either copy the zipped folder to 
Dropbox and import into Voice Dream or use iTunes file sharing. I also think 
the navigational options are superior in Voice Dream.

Sieghard

That means that as long as I am connected to my WiFi at home or at work my 
cellular data is not being used and while I think there is a limit to how much 
data I can use on my ADSL, it is so high that it's never been an issue.
. I don't know what arrangement you have. WiFi can also use cellular data if 
you are using some sort of hot spot or smarthub, but like I said, that is 
something you probably know. When you say you have "WiFi which allows me to 
connect to the cell network for internet purposes" that sounds to me like you 
are using cellular data for everything.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hello Sieghard
Thanks, that sounds quite easy.
I am curious. You asked if I can't do it with wifi. Well, I have a wifi network 
because I have a wifi which allows me to connect to the cell network for 
internet purposes. How would one do a wifi transfer?

Hi Fanus,

Can't you do it on WiFi? Anyhow, to do this in iTunes, connect your phone, go 
to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to Apps. 
Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a list of 
apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be one of 
these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your book on the 
computer and select it. It will take a moment or a few moments and the book 
should be added, now if you sync your device the book should transfer.

Sieghard

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Pablo,

 

Of course you decide when to upgrade, but iOS 8.1.1 is in my opinion a pretty 
good compromise. Yes, there are some bugs, but some major ones have been fixed 
and some of the new features are nice. Like I said, you have the information 
and you decide. Apple is definitely planning lots of updates to iOS 8. Usually 
there is only 1 major update, e.g. in iOS 7 there was 7.1 and then 7.1.2 which 
was the last version. It took Apple until March to release iOS 7.1 whereas this 
time iOS 8.1 was released in October. There are lots of rumours that Apple has 
already been working on iOS 8.2 and I guess there is a chance that before 8.2 
we’ll see 8.1.2 so like I said, Apple may not have released iOS 8 with a 
minimum of bugs, but they are working hard on making it better. Keep in mind 
that with Android you are largely at the mercy of carriers as to when you get 
an update or not and many carrier do their own customizations to Android which 
make accessibility more difficult.

Sieghard

Hi Seaghard.

Thanks for your note. It is what I was asking, something clear, direct. Little 
bit IOs 8 is been better, but I will wait a little bit more, maybe one more 
month, to see if the most part of bugs are fixed.

Thanks again.

As Charles said, Aplevis did put up an article and somebody actually posted all 
the fixes yesterday. Anyhow, there has been some good progress with SIRI 
working much better with Voiceover and with notifications. For example, I was 
on the phone today when another call came in and Voiceover told me who the 
caller was without me taking my phone away from my ear. Some focus issues have 
also been resolved, but no, not every single bug has been fixed.

2. Make sure all apps are updated

3. Remove all apps from the app switcher and at least reboot your phone by 
turning it off and on again or do a Reset all Network settings which will also 
reboot your phone.

 

 

Happy updating,

RE: Adding audio books

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Victor,

First of all, there are no more tabs in iTunes 12. What used to be the Options 
tab is now a button aklthough changing media type still works more or less the 
same. 

I do, however, agree that Voice Dream is a superior experience when it comes to 
audio books. If you use the built-in music app you still have to add the book 
to iTunes and go through all the steps of finding all the files and changing 
them to be recognized as an audio book. With Voice Dream all you have to do is 
select all the files and zip them, then either copy the zipped folder to 
Dropbox and import into Voice Dream or use iTunes file sharing. I also think 
the navigational options are superior in Voice Dream.

Sieghard

Everyone is stuck on using a third party app to read audiobooks, but I've 
seen no one simply mention to change the file attributes from within iTunes, 
at which point, the files will be classified as audiobooks and moved 
accordingly.

Simply highlight the file or files you wish to instruct iTunes that they're 
audiobooks, then press your applications key, and press the letter G for Get 
Info and press enter.

Once in the properties of the file, press tab to get to the list of tabs, if 
not already there, and press the right arrow to get to the options tab.

In the options tab, press tab to get to the combo box labelled, "Media 
Type:" and press the down arrow to identify the files as an audiobook file. 
Once done, make sure you check the box that says, "Remember Playback 
position", and the box that says, "Skip when shuffling", then tab to the ok 
button, and press the spacebar.

I should mention that the above steps are for Windows based PC's or MAC's 
booting Windows.  I should also mention that from that point on, the files 
will be located under books in your media library, they will no longer be 
kept with the rest of your music, that is, unless you have auto sorting set 
to off.

Anyway, hope this helps.

Re: Adding audio books

[Maria and Joe Chapman]

Hi.

I have chosen to use a third party app to play audio books because I frequently 
found audio books that had the attributes changed and played through the music 
player wouldn’t always play in the correct order.  I found that I had to use 
something like audio book binder or builder or mp3 to iPod converter to make 
the audio book in to a long file.  Now I can simply zip up my file and import 
it in to voice dream reader.  Much less time consuming and every book I have 
tried so far plays in order.

 
Cheers

Online banking and iOS app support

[Cristóbal]

Hello list,

 

So I need to open a small business checking account. I could go with either
USBank or Wells Fargo as I already have accounts with them, but I’ve been
thinking of just going the online bank rout. I was curious of anyone uses an
exclusive online bank and if they have reasonably accessible iOS apps? The
typical stuff. Depositing checks, bank transfers, account balance, etc. 

 

I may just end up going with one of the banks I mentioned, but since it’s
not like I can test drive an online option without going through the process
of opening an account, I thought I’d ask.

 

Nerd Wallet has a good breakdown of online banking options in general:
http://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/banking/nerdwallets-top-online-checking-accou
nts/

 

If it matters, I was leaning towards Ally. Simple looked like a good option,
but I believe they’re not accepting new customers at the moment.

RE: another FaceTime question

You just double tap on where it says Front Facing camera and that should switch

Well, it must have indeed been the internet problems that wouldn't let me 
FaceTime with my brother or sister, with it still not working with my brother 
tonight.  But, my brother asked his daughter in another city to give me a 
FaceTime call, and it went through just fine.  However, my question, what would 
I have been doing wrong that I couldn't find the button to switch to the back 
facing camera? I found something on the screen that said front facing camera, 
but tapping on that did nothing.  I also found the mute and end call buttons, 
but nothing to let me switch the camera.  I don't recall having this problem 
the last time I used FaceTime several months ago.

Thanks for your note. It is what I was asking, something clear, direct. Little

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released

[Pablo Morales]

Hi Raul.
I don't know why you are saying that I want an IOs free of bugs. I didn't say 
in my email, please read it again. I am just asking if he bugs that has been 
boring the voice over users, are still there. Why I am asking this?
well, because with IOs 8, there were found many, too much bugs, later with the 
IOs 8.1, not many of those bugs were fixed. Of course that my question make 
sense, I am asking again, if the bugs that you, user of IOs 8 found in this 
release, are still in IOs 8.1.1. It is not so difficult to  understand. Now if 
I am wanting that apple develop an IOs free of bugs, believe me Raul, I know 
that it will never be.

This is a busy list?
yes, maybe if apple makes a better job creating their operated system, the 
number of email list will be very few. But, I know it is a lie for ever. Well, 
thinking about how busy is this email list, is because of this, that I am 
asking. I am not able to read 300 emails daily. Sorry, I am very busy.
But I promise you, that I will keep my topic until apple stop playing with 
their customers. Yes, you have been looking my emails since IOs 6, later IOs 7, 
IOs 8, and so on
I am not hapy?
yes, and I am using my right to highlight something that ai believe unfair..

Re: Adding audio books

[Victor Gouveia]

Everyone is stuck on using a third party app to read audiobooks, but I've 
seen no one simply mention to change the file attributes from within iTunes, 
at which point, the files will be classified as audiobooks and moved 
accordingly.


Simply highlight the file or files you wish to instruct iTunes that they're 
audiobooks, then press your applications key, and press the letter G for Get 
Info and press enter.


Once in the properties of the file, press tab to get to the list of tabs, if 
not already there, and press the right arrow to get to the options tab.


In the options tab, press tab to get to the combo box labelled, "Media 
Type:" and press the down arrow to identify the files as an audiobook file. 
Once done, make sure you check the box that says, "Remember Playback 
position", and the box that says, "Skip when shuffling", then tab to the ok 
button, and press the spacebar.


I should mention that the above steps are for Windows based PC's or MAC's 
booting Windows.  I should also mention that from that point on, the files 
will be located under books in your media library, they will no longer be 
kept with the rest of your music, that is, unless you have auto sorting set 
to off.


Anyway, hope this helps.

Hi Fanus,

My WiFi at home is ADSL hence it has nothing to do with my cellular data 
limit. That means that as long as I am connected to my WiFi at home or at 
work my cellular data is not being used and while I think there is a limit 
to how much data I can use on my ADSL, it is so high that it's never been an 
issue.
. I don't know what arrangement you have. WiFi can also use cellular data if 
you are using some sort of hot spot or smarthub, but like I said, that is 
something you probably know. When you say you have "WiFi which allows me to 
connect to the cell network for internet purposes" that sounds to me like 
you are using cellular data for everything.

Hi Fanus,

Can't you do it on WiFi? Anyhow, to do this in iTunes, connect your phone,
go to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to
Apps. Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a
list of apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be
one of these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your
book on the computer and select it. It will take a moment or a few moments
and the book should be added, now if you sync your device the book should
transfer.

  When you impoort mp3 files into iTunes, it assumes they are music. So,
depending on how the files are tagged, you may find them under artist,

was before.

Hello Susan,

Were I to be purchasing an iPhone, for the first time, all things being equal 
and assuming that my area of the country was well covered, I would go with 
Sprint's unlimited talk, texting, and data plan.  

I've had a Smartphone for over 6 years now and have never come close to using

to determine what data usage I need. In other words, how do streaming,

I determine how much I am likely to need? What about individual vs. family

another FaceTime question

Well, it must have indeed been the internet problems that 
wouldn't let me FaceTime with my brother or sister, with it still 
not working with my brother tonight.  But, my brother asked his 
daughter in another city to give me a FaceTime call, and it went 
through just fine.  However, my question, what would I have been 
doing wrong that I couldn't find the button to switch to the back 
facing camera? I found something on the screen that said front 
facing camera, but tapping on that did nothing.  I also found the 
mute and end call buttons, but nothing to let me switch the 
camera.  I don't recall having this problem the last time I used 
FaceTime several months ago.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi Pablo. All iOS versions have Voice Over bugs, Safari bugs, mail bugs, 
messages bugs, phone call bugs, ETC. You will never get a completely bug-free 
system. You will have to decide for yourself which bugs are deal breakers for 
you and which ones you can live with. For me specifically for example, the 
voice over scrolling bug which has been there since iOS 8.0 and all the way 
through 8.1 has now been fixed with iOS 8.1.1. Are there other bugs, of course 
there are. I have known your posts since before iOS 6 basically saying the same 
thing. If you want Apple to put out a bug free iOS, you will be waiting 
forever. You can read the messages on this busy list, or you can go over to 
www.applevis.com and see what they have to say about the existing bugs there.

 

Good luck.

Subject says it, just use the usual precautions:

 

1. Sync and backup your phone either to iCloud or iTunes

2. Make sure all apps are updated

3. Remove all apps from the app switcher and at least reboot your phone by 
turning it off and on again or do a Reset all Network settings which will also 
reboot your phone.

 

 

Happy updating,

Help using braille imput!

[Kathy Metters]

I am having trouble brailling on the iPhone 6. For some reason, I am unable to 
find dots three and six when using the table mode. I can place my fingers on 
dots 1 2 3  and get the letter L, but when I go to write a K, I cannot find dot 
three. Has anyone else experienced this difficulty? Is there a easier way of 
railing on the screen?  any help would be greatly apreciated.  
thank you

RE: Can I save a Microsoft Word file on my device rather than keeping it in the cloud or in DropBox?

Hi, an update on this. I have found no way to do this other than cutting and 
pasting the document from DropBox into a new word file on my Phone. But, this 
does work.

Hi,

I don't think you can save a file in a different location than from where you 
opened it in the Word app.  A new file can be saved on the phone, but I just 
tried with one I opened from DropBox and I could not find a way from within the 
app to save to a different place.

That would be a good option.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released

Hi Pablo,

 

As Charles said, Aplevis did put up an article and somebody actually posted all 
the fixes yesterday. Anyhow, there has been some good progress with SIRI 
working much better with Voiceover and with notifications. For example, I was 
on the phone today when another call came in and Voiceover told me who the 
caller was without me taking my phone away from my ear. Some focus issues have 
also been resolved, but no, not every single bug has been fixed.

RE: Inaccurate iPhone 5 S battery gauge

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Sounds like you want to recalibrate your battery. Charge it up to 100%, then 
use the phone until your battery actually runs out completely and the phone 
shuts down. Then charge it up again to 100% (preferably over night when you are 
not using it) and repeat the discharge until it turns off. Then charge up one 
more time and see if the behavior corrects itself.

If answering phone calls is more important to you, then I would suggest a
Bluetooth ear peace such as the Plantronics Voyager Legend.  You can still
listen to good quality audio books, mp3 music etc and when a phone call
comes in, the music gets paused and you can take your phone call.  Assuming
of course your device is an iPhone.

For an iPod there are very good ear phones in almost all price ranges from
around 20 dollars on up to several hundred dollars.

Hi Eden,

You'll get mixed answers here because ear buds or headsets are one of 
these things which are a very personal item. Some people hate the Apple 
Ear pods whereas I like them a lot. There is of course a difference when 
it comes to what you want to use them for. If you want a high-end music 
listening experience then no ear buds will live up to a $200 or $300 full 
headset with full ear cups. But for making phone calls, listening to 
spoken audio or GPS information, I find that the Apple Ear pods work best 
for me. I have also heard people saying they don't like them because they 
are too big for their ears and don't stay in and once again that is not a 
problem for me. In fact, if I put them in correctly I can turn my head to 
the side and shake it like a dog and they won't come out. I also like the 
fact that I can just put in the right side a bit which gives me access to 
the remote control for picking up phone calls, playing/pausing audio or 
for use with Blindsquare and they block out very little external sound 
which is good when I am walking and have to listen to traffic. A lot of 
higher-end ear buds have foam to block out as much sound from the outside 
as possible so you can hear better whatever it is you are listening to, 
but of course for most blind people that is not very desirable.

Streaming takes the most data.
How much would you do when you are not on wireless?
If you choose to do the vast majority of your streaming over wireless, you do 
not need a large data plan.
If you google data usage for email, surfing the web and streaming you will 
likely find some good charts on how much each one takes.

  Hi listers,
  After using an Ipod Touch for about a year, I’m about ready to take the

comparing rate plans among the various U.S. carriers. My primary 
question/concern is how to determine what data usage I need. In other words, 
how do streaming, downloading, email use etc. impact daily and monthly data 
allotments and how do I determine how much I am likely to need? What about 
individual vs. family plans? Please feel free to contact me off list at

Re: Adding audio books

[Arnold Schmidt]

To get a book transferred to Voice Dream there is one additional step, after 
synching.  I just tried it, without doing this step, and the book was not in 
Voice Dream when I opened it.  Open Voice Dream, and tap the add button, in 
the lower left of the screen.  ITunes will be the first choice.  Tap this, 
and the books that are possible to be loaded into Voice Dream, the ones you 
added before you did the synch, will be listed.  Double tap the one you 
want, or use the select all button.  Then, flick to the left, and tap the 
load button.  In a bit, it will say file loaded, after which you tap the 
okay button.  Finally, tap the done button, and you will be in your list of 
Voice Dream books.

Hi Fanus,

Can't you do it on WiFi? Anyhow, to do this in iTunes, connect your phone, 
go to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to 
Apps. Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a 
list of apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be 
one of these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your 
book on the computer and select it. It will take a moment or a few moments 
and the book should be added, now if you sync your device the book should 
transfer.

  I don't know that this is less tedious, but it is necessary if you want
those files to be seen as books.
  When you impoort mp3 files into iTunes, it assumes they are music. So,
depending on how the files are tagged, you may find them under artist,
title, unknown, etc. in the music folder.
  With iTunes 12, I find this whole process a bit more challenging than it
was before.
  You can search for the book in the music library, then if your search
gets
you all the files, you can right click and select get info. You will then
need to change the "kind" from music to audio book.
  You will also have choices of skip when shuffling, remember your place,
which you want if it is a book.
  If the files are not tagged correctly, you may find chapters out of
order.
Remember, iTunes does not care what the file names are, it sorts only by
the
internal tagging.
  I believe folks on this list have recommended software that can make the
tagging and all that much easier, but I don't recall what the name was.
  Personally, if I want to listen to an audio book that is in mp3 format,
I
now use VoiceDream Reader.
  With VoiceDream, you simply need to make sure the files are named in
such
a way that they will be sorted in order, add them all to a zip file with
the
zip filename the name of the book. Add the zip file to dropbox, and use
VoiceDream to import the zip file.
  When it is done, you will have a book that is named whatever the zip
file
was named, and each file will be treated as a chapter in the book.
  It works fabulously.
  HTH,
  Richard

Re: Is Safari bug fixed when going back a page?

Hi Arnold,
Obviously, people are having varying results. In my case, I use Safari a lot on 
an iPad mini and my iPhone 5S. I have found that the workaround touching the 
status bar works extremely well in almost all cases. I really hope they fix the 
problem, but I have not found it to be a huge impediment to my successful web

Re: ear pods?

I think bluetooth headsets won't work for me. I don't like the lag 
enough as it is with my braile display although it's really not there 
with that, but I have noticed it with bluetooth keyboards and such on my

the lag is still there although it might be less noticeable to some. Where I notice it is 
when I am trying to type text on the virtual keyboard. If you use the standard method of 
text entry you may not even notice it, but if you use touch typing and are fairly quick 
with it you will notice it as it is just ever so slightly less responsive than with a 
wired headset or no headset. It's not much, but enough that at least for me it is

There are good bluetooth headsets both single earpieces and stereo headsets.
However, you will not find a bluetooth headset which will not have a slight
lag and the audio quality will not be as good as that of a wired headset. Of
course this all depends on your standard and that of the caller on the other
end. If you get too much of your body between the headset and your phone you

You can still listen to good quality audio books, mp3 music etc and 
when a phone call comes in, the music gets paused and you can take 
your phone call.  Assuming of course your device is an iPhone.


For an iPod there are very good ear phones in almost all price ranges 
from around 20 dollars on up to several hundred dollars.

fact, if I put them in correctly I can turn my head to the side and 
shake it like a dog and they won't come out. I also like the fact 
that I can just put in the right side a bit which gives me access to 
the remote control for picking up phone calls, playing/pausing audio 
or for use with Blindsquare and they block out very little external 
sound which is good when I am walking and have to listen to traffic. 
A lot of higher-end ear buds have foam to block out as much sound 
from the outside as possible so you can hear better whatever it is 
you are listening to, but of course for most blind people that is not 
very desirable.

RE: ear pods?

[Alan Lemly]

I'm sure the Plantronics Voyager Legend is an excellent bluetooth headset
but we should mention that it sells for 73.43 USD at Amazon versus 29.00 USD
at the online Apple store for the Apple earpods.

Know what's available thoroughly including its cost and you'll make the best
purchasing decision.

I agree with Allen that the Voyager Legend is one of the best bluetooth
single earpieces you can get. Others like the Jabra Supreme also have voice
control, i.e. you can say "Answer" and it will answer the call without you
even touching the headset, but the lag is still there although it might be
less noticeable to some. Where I notice it is when I am trying to type text
on the virtual keyboard. If you use the standard method of text entry you
may not even notice it, but if you use touch typing and are fairly quick
with it you will notice it as it is just ever so slightly less responsive
than with a wired headset or no headset. It's not much, but enough that at
least for me it is annoying and the reason why I prefer the Apple Ear Pods.
I find them even more comfortable and while I can't say Answer to answer a
call, I can just press the Answer button on the remote.

There are good bluetooth headsets both single earpieces and stereo headsets.

However, you will not find a bluetooth headset which will not have a slight 
lag and the audio quality will not be as good as that of a wired headset. Of

course this all depends on your standard and that of the caller on the other

end. If you get too much of your body between the headset and your phone you

may experience drop-outs.

Ok so earpods are wired, thanks for that info too.  are others using
wireless ones with remotes that they like?  My only reason for asking is
I often use my braille display with my phone so I have the phone in my
purse or what not and may want to listen, but I myself notice that
wireless headsets of any kind seem inferior to me.  I have never used a
bluetooth setup to take calls, but if the cutting out I got from really
expensive wireless headphones is any indication, it might be a
nightmare.  I do have head motion problems, and I wonder if this affects
the bluetooth or wireless sensor.

Re: How do I see the list of apps on my iPhone 5c when my phone is plugged in to my pc using windows?

[carol.pearso...@googlemail.com]

You won't see them unless your phone is plugged in.

If you have collected apps from the Store but haven't allowed a sync of them 
via ITunes, I'm not sure you see them either, but won't say for definite.

  You can see that list by opening iTunes, go to your phone and tab a few times 
to the treeview which starts with Summary, arrow down once to Apps and then use 
F6 until you get into the list view of apps. You may have apps in that list 
which are not on the phone, but all that sync with your phone will be checked 
and those which are not checked are not on your phone. If you want to add or 
remove apps, just check or uncheck those you want and when you are done tab to 
Apply or go to File, Devices and then select “Sync”.

Re: Is there a tutorial for the braille feature?

[carol.pearso...@googlemail.com]

I don't know of a tutorial.

To delete character, swipe left with one finger.  New line is swipe right 
with one finger, I think, but am not near my phone to check.  If you just 
put one in then delete as given earlier, you'll know if that's the right 
command.


Sorry, it's a bit late over here and I'm racing to give you a reply right

Re: seeking advice on purchase of first iphone

[Richard Turner]

Streaming takes the most data.
How much would you do when you are not on wireless?
If you choose to do the vast majority of your streaming over wireless, you do 
not need a large data plan.
If you google data usage for email, surfing the web and streaming you will 
likely find some good charts on how much each one takes.
Then you can decide what kind of data plan you will need.
I personally do almost no streaming away from wireless, so we have 300 mb of 
data and have never come close to maxing it out.

Re: Persistent Bug with Repeated Characters in Edit Fields With External Keyboards, Or is This Just Me?

[Richard Turner]

If you mean by repeated keystroke that you type a letter and get two letters 
for the price of one, then yes.
If I power down the phone, then power it back up, it seems to work well after 
that, at least for a while. When it happens again, I have to power down and so 
on.
I reported it to apple accessibility.
I suggest others do likewise as this is truly an annoying bug.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released

[Wayne Merritt]

I too am totally blind and have had no trouble in moving apps. I have
experienced the apps in the last row above the dock not being able to
be moved, but I can move apps to other screens or other parts of the
same screen. Moving apps is a bit of a science at times, so if you are
to the point of turning off VoiceOver, perhaps you need more practice
in moving apps around.

Best,
Wayne

 For those wondering, here are the accessibility fixes mentioned by
 AppleVis:
 1. The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of
 VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial
 release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to
 resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things
 such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon
 Mobile app.
  2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all
 commands/responses appear to be spoken fully.
  3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification
 is received, even when the device is locked.
  4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone
 calls.
  5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback
 when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call.
  6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen
 from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking.
  7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the "Details"
 screen of message threads that contain attachments.

 It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S
 and the older iPads.

Re: ear pods?

[Wayne Merritt]

I knew I had gotten used to my Apple Earpods when I was listening to
music with a pair of regular headphones, went to adjust the volume,
and remembered that the headphones were not the EarPods. When I got my
first iPhone several years ago, I threw the earbuds away, not knowing
what they were and not caring. Then about 6 months later I realized
what I had done and was sorry. I got a pair of new EarPods with my
recent iPhone 6 purchase, and have put them in a drawer for when the
current ones bite the dutst. It doesn't happen very often, but I've
had to make the trip to an Apple Store at least once to get a
replacement before.

Persistent Bug with Repeated Characters in Edit Fields With External Keyboards, Or is This Just Me?

[Teresa Cochran]

Hi, all. 

This has been a problem for me intermittently since I've owned an iThingy, but 
now it's the worst ever. I've updated to iOS8.1.1, and I'm basically happy with 
it. But this repeated keystroke thing is getting to the point that I'm using 
dictation and the onscreen keyboard a lot. This happens with my Focus 40 
Braille display and my Anker Bluetooth keyboard. Anyone else experiencing this?

Thanks,
Teresa

RE: Resetting Network Settings was RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi John,

I think this is one case where you have your opinion and we have ours and we'll 
just have to agree that we disagree. Not much point in saying you are right 
since there is no way to proof that it is so. Just because you never had 
problems with an  upgrade not doing this doesn't mean somebody who had problems 
might not have avoided them by doing it.
It's a bit like upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8. Microsoft may make it 
possible to upgrade, but I would never do it and the only way I ever upgrade 
from one major version of Windows to another is by doing a complete fresh 
install and in the same way I will always do a Reset All Network Settings or at 
least a reboot of my device after removing all apps from the app switcher 
before doing any sort of iOS update.

Regards,
Sieghard

Re: Is there a tutorial for the braille feature?

[RobH.]

Type onscreen braille
With Braille Screen Input enabled, you can use your fingers to enter six-dot 
or contracted braille codes directly on the iPhone screen. Tap codes with 
iPhone laying flat in front of you (tabletop mode), or hold iPhone with the 
screen facing away so your fingers curl back to tap the screen (screen away 
mode).

Turn on Braille Screen Input. Use the rotor to select Braille Screen Input. 
If you don’t find it in the rotor, go to Settings > General > Accessibility 
 > VoiceOver > Rotor, then add it.

Enter braille codes. Place iPhone flat in front of you or hold it with the 
screen facing away, then tap the screen with one or several fingers at the 
same time.

Adjust entry dot positions. To move the entry dots to match your natural 
finger positions, tap and lift your right three fingers all at once to 
position dots 4, 5, and 6, followed immediately by your left three fingers 
for dots 1, 2, and 3.

Switch between 6-dot and contracted braille. Swipe to the right with three 
fingers. To set the default, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > 
VoiceOver > Braille > Braille Screen Input.

Enter a space. Swipe right with one finger. (In screen away mode, swipe to 
your right.)

Delete the previous character. Swipe left with one finger.

Cycle through spelling suggestions. Swipe up or down with one finger.

Select an item on the Home screen. Start entering the name of the item. If 
there are multiple matches, continue to spell the name until it is unique, 
or swipe up or down with one finger to select a partial match.

Open the selected app. Swipe right with two fingers.

Turn braille contractions on or off. Swipe to the right with three fingers.

Translate immediately (when contractions are enabled). Swipe down with two 
fingers.

Stop entering braille. Do a two-finger scrub, or set the rotor to another 
setting.

Explore Mode: doubleTap and hold until VO says explore mode.

RE: ear pods?

[Cristóbal]

A question on the Voyager, is it activated with a switch that you can flick or 
is it one of those buttons you have to press for five or so seconds? I have a 
couple of different bluetooht ear pieces and while I like my Aftershokz Blues2 
a lot, I find myself going back to my old and trusty Plantronics M50 because of 
this one basic feature.

I agree with Allen that the Voyager Legend is one of the best bluetooth single 
earpieces you can get. Others like the Jabra Supreme also have voice control, 
i.e. you can say "Answer" and it will answer the call without you even touching 
the headset, but the lag is still there although it might be less noticeable to 
some. Where I notice it is when I am trying to type text on the virtual 
keyboard. If you use the standard method of text entry you may not even notice 
it, but if you use touch typing and are fairly quick with it you will notice it 
as it is just ever so slightly less responsive than with a wired headset or no 
headset. It's not much, but enough that at least for me it is annoying and the 
reason why I prefer the Apple Ear Pods. I find them even more comfortable and 
while I can't say Answer to answer a call, I can just press the Answer button 
on the remote.

There are good bluetooth headsets both single earpieces and stereo headsets. 
However, you will not find a bluetooth headset which will not have a slight lag 
and the audio quality will not be as good as that of a wired headset. Of course 
this all depends on your standard and that of the caller on the other end. If 
you get too much of your body between the headset and your phone you may 
experience drop-outs.

Jen,

 

Not sure why it’s not there for you, it is right below Summary for me. Maybe 
others can check and somebody might know why it’s not there for you. Did you 
try to type “A”, maybe you somehow pass it? That treeview can be a bit slow

You can see that list by opening iTunes, go to your phone and tab a few times 
to the treeview which starts with Summary, arrow down once to Apps and then use 
F6 until you get into the list view of apps. You may have apps in that list 
which are not on the phone, but all that sync with your phone will be checked 
and those which are not checked are not on your phone. If you want to add or 
remove apps, just check or uncheck those you want and when you are done tab to 
Apply or go to File, Devices and then select “Sync”.

Re: How do I see the list of apps on my iPhone 5c when my phone is plugged in to my pc using windows?

[John Diakogeorgiou]

Sieghard I noticed yesterday when I was looking for this as well that
it has disappeared. I had no issue with this in the past. I am not
sure if it started when I installed ITunes 12 or more recently than
that. It's really strange since I used this all the time.

RE: How do I see the list of apps on my iPhone 5c when my phone is plugged in to my pc using windows?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Jen,

 

Not sure why it’s not there for you, it is right below Summary for me. Maybe 
others can check and somebody might know why it’s not there for you. Did you 
try to type “A”, maybe you somehow pass it? That treeview can be a bit slow 
responding when you first get to it.

You can see that list by opening iTunes, go to your phone and tab a few times 
to the treeview which starts with Summary, arrow down once to Apps and then use 
F6 until you get into the list view of apps. You may have apps in that list 
which are not on the phone, but all that sync with your phone will be checked 
and those which are not checked are not on your phone. If you want to add or 
remove apps, just check or uncheck those you want and when you are done tab to 
Apply or go to File, Devices and then select “Sync”.

There are good bluetooth headsets both single earpieces and stereo 
headsets. However, you will not find a bluetooth headset which will 
not have a slight lag and the audio quality will not be as good as 
that of a wired headset. Of course this all depends on your standard 
and that of the caller on the other end. If you get too much of your

Hi Eden,

You'll get mixed answers here because ear buds or headsets are one of 
these
things which are a very personal item. Some people hate the Apple Ear 
pods
whereas I like them a lot. There is of course a difference when it 
comes to

what you want to use them for. If you want a high-end music listening
experience then no ear buds will live up to a $200 or $300 full 
headset with
full ear cups. But for making phone calls, listening to spoken audio 
or GPS
information, I find that the Apple Ear pods work best for me. I have 
also
heard people saying they don't like them because they are too big for 
their
ears and don't stay in and once again that is not a problem for me. 
In fact,
if I put them in correctly I can turn my head to the side and shake 
it like
a dog and they won't come out. I also like the fact that I can just 
put in
the right side a bit which gives me access to the remote control for 
picking
up phone calls, playing/pausing audio or for use with Blindsquare and 
they

block out very little external sound which is good when I am walking and
have to listen to traffic. A lot of higher-end ear buds have foam to 
block

out as much sound from the outside as possible so you can hear better
whatever it is you are listening to, but of course for most blind people
that is not very desirable.

RE: ear pods?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I agree with Allen that the Voyager Legend is one of the best bluetooth single 
earpieces you can get. Others like the Jabra Supreme also have voice control, 
i.e. you can say "Answer" and it will answer the call without you even touching 
the headset, but the lag is still there although it might be less noticeable to 
some. Where I notice it is when I am trying to type text on the virtual 
keyboard. If you use the standard method of text entry you may not even notice 
it, but if you use touch typing and are fairly quick with it you will notice it 
as it is just ever so slightly less responsive than with a wired headset or no 
headset. It's not much, but enough that at least for me it is annoying and the 
reason why I prefer the Apple Ear Pods. I find them even more comfortable and 
while I can't say Answer to answer a call, I can just press the Answer button 
on the remote.

You can see that list by opening iTunes, go to your phone and tab a few times 
to the treeview which starts with Summary, arrow down once to Apps and then use 
F6 until you get into the list view of apps. You may have apps in that list 
which are not on the phone, but all that sync with your phone will be checked

Re: ear pods?

[Alan J Paganelli]

I've heard others talk about lag time with a Bluetooth ear peace.  I have 
never experienced this with my Plantronics Voyager Legend.  Hey, I don't 
often get that lucky either.  Usually if it can go wrong, it usually does go 
wrong and usually for me.

There are good bluetooth headsets both single earpieces and stereo headsets. 
However, you will not find a bluetooth headset which will not have a slight 
lag and the audio quality will not be as good as that of a wired headset. Of 
course this all depends on your standard and that of the caller on the other 
end. If you get too much of your body between the headset and your phone you 
may experience drop-outs.

Hi Eden,

You'll get mixed answers here because ear buds or headsets are one of 
these

things which are a very personal item. Some people hate the Apple Ear pods
whereas I like them a lot. There is of course a difference when it comes 
to

what you want to use them for. If you want a high-end music listening
experience then no ear buds will live up to a $200 or $300 full headset 
with
full ear cups. But for making phone calls, listening to spoken audio or 
GPS

information, I find that the Apple Ear pods work best for me. I have also
heard people saying they don't like them because they are too big for 
their
ears and don't stay in and once again that is not a problem for me. In 
fact,
if I put them in correctly I can turn my head to the side and shake it 
like

a dog and they won't come out. I also like the fact that I can just put in
the right side a bit which gives me access to the remote control for 
picking

up phone calls, playing/pausing audio or for use with Blindsquare and they
block out very little external sound which is good when I am walking and
have to listen to traffic. A lot of higher-end ear buds have foam to block
out as much sound from the outside as possible so you can hear better
whatever it is you are listening to, but of course for most blind people
that is not very desirable.

Re: ear pods?

[Alan J Paganelli]

A good Bluetooth ear peace should cause no trouble taking and making phone 
calls.  I have the Plantronics Voyager Legend which is an ear peace meaning 
it fits over the top of either ear and a boom style microphone points down 
at about a 45 degree angle.  I cary my iPhone 5s in my lefthand pants pocket 
and have the ear peace in my left ear.  The biggest advantage to this is, it 
leaves your hands free.  When a phone call comes in, the legend announces 
the callers name if you granted permission to load contact names into the 
ear peace's memory.  The legend announces the callers name and asks you 
answer or ignore.  If you say ignore, then the caller is sent to voice mail. 
If you say, answer then the caller is put through and you can start talking 
to that person.  The ear peace goes for around a hundred bucks but if you 
keep an eye on Amazon, you can get it when they put it on special for $69.99 
and free shipping.  It was well worth the wait for it to go on special. 
Other places have it as well so it pays to shop around.

RE: How do I see the list of apps on my iPhone 5c when my phone is plugged in to my pc using windows?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

You can see that list by opening iTunes, go to your phone and tab a few times 
to the treeview which starts with Summary, arrow down once to Apps and then use 
F6 until you get into the list view of apps. You may have apps in that list 
which are not on the phone, but all that sync with your phone will be checked 
and those which are not checked are not on your phone. If you want to add or 
remove apps, just check or uncheck those you want and when you are done tab to 
Apply or go to File, Devices and then select “Sync”.

RE: Adding audio books

Hi Sieghard
Sorry, I forgot to say that my modem uses a separate sim card and that is on a 
Vodacom data plan where I have a 6 GB limit, while my iPhone sim is also by 
Vodacom but I have only a 500 MB download cap. When I do downloads on my iPhone 
i therefore switch wifi on to make use of the 6 GB cap. The PC is also 
connected via wifi with the cell modem.
Do you think it would be possible to transfer from the PC to the iPhone without 
"going out on the cell network" i.e. do a direct transfer without using the 
download cap?

Hi Fanus,

If you can connect to your modem via WiFi from your PC and from your iPhone 
then you are using WiFi. You can verify this by checking to the left of the 
time in the status bar. If you see something like 3 of 3 bars or 2 of 3 bars 
followed by your
WiFi name that means you are connected to WiFi. What I of course don't know 
is what your data limit is on your cellular modem. Do you share a set amount 
of cellular data between your modem amd your iPhone or they on separate 
plans?

I tried ADSL a time ago but I am too far from the telephone exchange so the

connects to the cell network. I have never tried to communicate from the

Hi Fanus,

My WiFi at home is ADSL hence it has nothing to do with my cellular data
limit. That means that as long as I am connected to my WiFi at home or at
work my cellular data is not being used and while I think there is a limit
to how much data I can use on my ADSL, it is so high that it's never been an
issue.
. I don't know what arrangement you have. WiFi can also use cellular data if
you are using some sort of hot spot or smarthub, but like I said, that is
something you probably know. When you say you have "WiFi which allows me to
connect to the cell network for internet purposes" that sounds to me like
you are using cellular data for everything.

Hi Fanus,

Can't you do it on WiFi? Anyhow, to do this in iTunes, connect your phone,
go to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to
Apps. Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a
list of apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be
one of these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your
book on the computer and select it. It will take a moment or a few moments
and the book should be added, now if you sync your device the book should
transfer.

Re: ear pods?

[Alan J Paganelli]

If answering phone calls is more important to you, then I would suggest a 
Bluetooth ear peace such as the Plantronics Voyager Legend.  You can still 
listen to good quality audio books, mp3 music etc and when a phone call 
comes in, the music gets paused and you can take your phone call.  Assuming 
of course your device is an iPhone.


For an iPod there are very good ear phones in almost all price ranges from 
around 20 dollars on up to several hundred dollars.

Re: ear pods?

[Eden Kizer]

Ok so earpods are wired, thanks for that info too.  are others using 
wireless ones with remotes that they like?  My only reason for asking is 
I often use my braille display with my phone so I have the phone in my 
purse or what not and may want to listen, but I myself notice that 
wireless headsets of any kind seem inferior to me.  I have never used a 
bluetooth setup to take calls, but if the cutting out I got from really 
expensive wireless headphones is any indication, it might be a 
nightmare.  I do have head motion problems, and I wonder if this affects 
the bluetooth or wireless sensor.

RE: Resetting Network Settings was RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released

[Alan Lemly]

Sieghard,

You're preaching to the choir here. I agree that your suggestions are wise
to follow when doing an iOS upgrade. I've experienced the disaster when
helping a friend upgrade to iOS 7 through iTunes and it didn't take and
required her to reset her phone and start over. Anything that might avoid
this problem is certainly worth a few minutes of inconvenience when
resetting wi-fi passwords.

Hi Alan,

Yes, if you use 5 or 6 different WiFi networks then that could be
inconvenient. I mostly use my Home WiFi and my work WiFi and a couple of
times a year I visit my parents and may use theirs or that of a friend. I
don't find entering 3 or 4 WiFi passwords very inconvenient, but everybody
is different and for some it may be a daunting task knowing they have to
reconnect to even just their own home WiFi. In this case removing all apps
from the app switcher and at least shutting down the phone for 30 seconds
and turning it back on is a good compromise. I know a couple people here
said they don't even close out their apps when they upgrade. All I can say
here is to each their own. I have heard a lot of stories where people
upgraded without doing any of the recommended things and they end up with
horrible battery life, unexpected crashes or other weird inconsistancies. I
am just not prepared to risk that especially since doing even the Reset all
Network settings at best takes 2 or 3 minutes.

Sieghard, I assume that resetting network settings will also cause you to
lose all wi-fi password settings for any previous networks you've logged on
to. If one moves around a lot to many different wi-fi networks, losing this
can be a major inconvenience. Obviously, the cost of this inconvenience must
be weighed against any benefit this network reset offers when upgrading.

Hi Christina and Eden,

The least one should do before an update is to remove all apps from the app
switcher and to turn off the phone, wait 30 seconds and turn it back on.
This is just good practice because an iPhone which has not been rebooted for
a long time can have stuff in memory and so on which may negatively impact
an iOS update. Doing a Reset all Network Settings in Settings, General,
Reset does in fact not delete any networks, but it will as the name
indicates "reset" all network modems to factory settings and it will delete
your WiFi password which means after you reboot the phone you have to go to
Settings, WiFi and reconnect to your WiFi. However, it will also clear out
anything which potentially could effect an update from memory and it is
something some people who know a thing about iOS recommend. It's not
strictly necessary, but while I have often read on the list how people had
problems where an update didn't complete or really messed up the phone, I
have never in 5 years had a single problem with an update not going
perfectly smooth and I do follow my own advice here.

Re: Adding audio books

[Fanus]

Hi Sieghard
Sorry, I forgot to say that my modem uses a separate sim card and that is on 
a Vodacom data plan where I have a 6 GB limit, while my iPhone sim is also 
by Vodacom but I have only a 500 MB download cap. When I do downloads on my 
iPhone i therefore switch wifi on to make use of the 6 GB cap. The PC is 
also connected via wifi with the cell modem.
Do you think it would be possible to transfer from the PC to the iPhone 
without "going out on the cell network" i.e. do a direct transfer without 
using the download cap?

Fanus

Hi Fanus,

If you can connect to your modem via WiFi from your PC and from your iPhone 
then you are using WiFi. You can verify this by checking to the left of the 
time in the status bar. If you see something like 3 of 3 bars or 2 of 3 bars 
followed by your
WiFi name that means you are connected to WiFi. What I of course don't know 
is what your data limit is on your cellular modem. Do you share a set amount 
of cellular data between your modem amd your iPhone or they on separate 
plans?

Hi Sieghard
I tried ADSL a time ago but I am too far from the telephone exchange so the 
download speed was awfully slow. So, yes, I have a modem to which I connect 
from my PC or iPhone via wifi and the modem takes a simcard which then 
connects to the cell network. I have never tried to communicate from the 
iPhone to the PC via the wifi network, so I am not sure if it is possible.

Hi Fanus,

My WiFi at home is ADSL hence it has nothing to do with my cellular data
limit. That means that as long as I am connected to my WiFi at home or at
work my cellular data is not being used and while I think there is a limit
to how much data I can use on my ADSL, it is so high that it's never been an
issue.
. I don't know what arrangement you have. WiFi can also use cellular data if
you are using some sort of hot spot or smarthub, but like I said, that is
something you probably know. When you say you have "WiFi which allows me to
connect to the cell network for internet purposes" that sounds to me like
you are using cellular data for everything.

Hi Fanus,

Can't you do it on WiFi? Anyhow, to do this in iTunes, connect your phone,
go to it and in the list view which starts with Summary arrow down once to
Apps. Now tab or use F6 until you get to file sharing. Here you will find a
list of apps which are capable of iTunes file sharing. Voice Dream will be
one of these, arrow to it and then tab to the "Add" button. Browse to your
book on the computer and select it. It will take a moment or a few moments
and the book should be added, now if you sync your device the book should
transfer.

RE: ear pods?

[Alan Lemly]

I'll echo Sieghard's comments about the Apple earpods. I also have an iPhone
5 and prefer the wired earpods for the majority of my listening. I think
they sound much better than bluetooth devices I've used and I find the
remote and volume buttons very convenient when listening to books while I'm
moving about. The remote button gives me access to play and stop and move
backward and forward without having to access the touch screen which is most
convenient when walking. I also think the sound quality is quite good.

Subject: RE: ear pods?

Hi Eden,

You'll get mixed answers here because ear buds or headsets are one of these
things which are a very personal item. Some people hate the Apple Ear pods
whereas I like them a lot. There is of course a difference when it comes to
what you want to use them for. If you want a high-end music listening
experience then no ear buds will live up to a $200 or $300 full headset with
full ear cups. But for making phone calls, listening to spoken audio or GPS
information, I find that the Apple Ear pods work best for me. I have also
heard people saying they don't like them because they are too big for their
ears and don't stay in and once again that is not a problem for me. In fact,
if I put them in correctly I can turn my head to the side and shake it like
a dog and they won't come out. I also like the fact that I can just put in
the right side a bit which gives me access to the remote control for picking
up phone calls, playing/pausing audio or for use with Blindsquare and they
block out very little external sound which is good when I am walking and
have to listen to traffic. A lot of higher-end ear buds have foam to block
out as much sound from the outside as possible so you can hear better
whatever it is you are listening to, but of course for most blind people
that is not very desirable.

Re: giraffe reader versus stand scan.

[Steve]

Generally, lighting is important.

Having said that, I've found amazing results with the Knfb Reader by itself 
in virtually total darkness using automatic flash.

Based on that, I'd say you could probably get good results with the Giraffe 
which is a little more solid than the Scanstand.  You could also have 
somebody build a jig for you if you want something fairly permanent.

hi list.

I have just purchased the Knfb reader. Granted I have only played with
this app for a little while, but I find, given my spatial orientation
difficulty,that I am having trouble positioning the iPhone the correct
number of inches above the page I would like to scan.  If I do enough
fiddling, I can manage to get all four edges in the camera's viewfinder.

I have tried this with both a small and large hardback book.  I have
used the page that is the straightest for testing.

Given this problem, I am considering buying either the giraffe reader,
or the stand scan. I am leaning towards the giraffe reader, because of
its portability factor, but am wondering if the light provided by the
Knfb readers flashlight,as well as the flash on the camera, are enough
to suffice in most environments? are there situations where the stand
scan, because of its built-in light,would perform better than the
giraffe reader?

how important is lighting to the results of the scanning process?

Thank you very much for your help.
Julia.

For those wondering, here are the accessibility fixes mentioned by 
AppleVis:

1. The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of
VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial
release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to
resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things
such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon
Mobile app.
 2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all
commands/responses appear to be spoken fully.
 3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification
is received, even when the device is locked.
 4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone 
calls.

 5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback
when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call.
 6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen
from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking.
 7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the "Details"
screen of message threads that contain attachments.

It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S
and the older iPads.

RE: is 8.1.1 has been released

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Jessica,

I apologize for disagreeing with you. This is like having to turn Voiceover off 
to tap the End Call button or whatever it was you said the other day. There are 
a lot of people o the list including myself who are completely blind and who 
move apps with Voiceover just fine. Yes, there is one bug and that is effecting 
apps in the last row above the dock. For me 2 of the 4 apps in that row can't 
be moved, for others none of them can't be moved. But I can move all other apps 
either to other spots on the home screen, to other home screens or into folders 
and positively saying that it can't be done unless you turn off Voiceover is 
not correct information. I assume it is possible that somebody's phone may have 
other issues just as some people say they can't clear notifications by triple 
tapping the Confirm clear section button or double tapping it twice. Either 
method does it for me and for most, but apparently for some it doesn't.


Regards,
Sieghard

Yes. In order to move apps, one must find where they want the app to go, 
remember that spot, turn off voice over, drag the app to the new location, then 
turn voiceover back on.

 Subject says it, just use the usual precautions:
 
 
 
 1. Sync and backup your phone either to iCloud or iTunes
 
 2. Make sure all apps are updated
 
 3. Remove all apps from the app switcher and at least reboot your phone by
 turning it off and on again or do a Reset all Network settings which will
 also reboot your phone.
 
 
 
 
 
 Happy updating,
 
 Sieghard
