RE: The dark side of Apple's two-factor authentication
Jed, You only get a recovery code if you enable 2-step authentication which has to be done via the http://AppleID.apple.com website. If you log in and go to the security section you will find this. Using 2-step authentication means that if you try to sign in to iCloud or the Apple website from a device which is not recognized you will first provide your password, then a code is sent to one of your trusted devices (iPhone or iPad) and you have to enter this code in order to complete the login process. The recovery key is for situations where you forget your password or as in the article where somebody tries to access your account and it is blocked which I think Apple does after inputting your password incorrectly three times.

Taylor wrote: Hello Everyone, I strongly suggest that you read the following article, very carefully. The link to the original post may be found at the end of the text. Mark The dark side of Apple's two-factor authentication Earlier this week, a strange message popped up on my Mac that I thought nothing of. You can't sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons. I dismissed it in my tired haze, thinking it would solve itself and went to sleep. The next morning, I didn't have time to deal with the message - which was now popping up every half hour - for a few hours until it became annoying. I figured I'd done something dumb and broken iCloud, but that it could wait. I'd turned two-factor on my Apple ID in haste when I read Mat Honan's harrowing story about how his Mac, iPhone and other devices were wiped when someone broke into his iCloud account. That terrified me into thinking about real security for the first time. When I finally had time to investigate the errors appearing on my machine, I discovered that not only had my iCloud account been locked, but someone had tried to break in. Two-factor had done its job and kept the attacker out, however, it had also inadvertently locked me out. The Apple support page relating to lockouts assured me it would be easy to recover my account with a combination of any two of either my password, a trusted device or the two-factor recovery key. When I headed to the account recovery service, dubbed iForgot, I discovered that there was no way back in without my recovery key. That's when it hit me; I had no idea where my recovery key was or if I'd ever even put the piece of paper in a safe place. I've moved since I set up two-factor on iCloud. I began nervously scouring the entire house for the code, before giving up after a few frustrating hours and began searching my computer for any trace of it. I found countless recovery keys but they weren't for the right things; for my Mac's hard-drive encryption, Twitter, Facebook and other accounts, but not for my Apple ID. How could I be foolish enough to misplace my Apple ID recovery key? I swore that I'd taken a screenshot, printed it and had taken a photo of it with my iPhone for extra safekeeping. This is when it began to sink in that this single ID held the keys to much of my digital life; everything from iTunes purchases going back seven years, app purchases and even the ability to get my iPhone out of the grips of Find my iPhone's lock. The sinking feeling began. After fruitlessly searching and a lot of cussing, I decided to call Apple. I figured that something must be wrong, since the support page claims you can use trusted devices to recover your ID in cases like this. The first person I spoke to told me immediately after getting on the phone that in no uncertain terms I had forfeit my Apple ID by losing the recovery key. He refused to help me. I hung up and called back. On the second call, I got a lovely woman who totally understood my plight and how terrible it was. She told me a similar thing had happened to her, and it had turned out OK. After 20 minutes of poking around and lots of awkward sighing, she put me on hold to talk to a senior manager. When she got back on the line, the story was just as bleak. We take your security very seriously at Apple she told me but at this time we cannot grant you access back into your Apple account. We recommend you create a new Apple ID. I couldn't believe what I was hearing and fought back that surely there was some other way, but I was told point blank that Apple would not help me. I offered a scan of my government ID, my trusted devices and other proof that it was me. Nope, that

If you have the free version, try searching for it and keep double tapping on the name until you get to a screen that says Stations, just before 102.5 KZOK and it will start playing when you double tap on it there, then you can add it to your favorites.

RE: intro, IPhone6
If you still get the Hello or slide to setup message in different languages that means your phone is not set up yet. What you have to do when you touch that message (don't worry about which language it is in, it rotates and once you tap it, it will continue in English) is to double tap anywhere on the screen with one finger. A doubl;e tap means just that, 2 quick taps one after the other. This is how buttons, links and other screen elements are activated, like pressing enter on the computer. If you are that new and are completely unfamiliar with how you enter information using the virtual keyboard, you may want to ask a sighted person to at least get you through the setup screens. Do you already hgave an Apple ID? If not it might be best to go to http://AppleID.apple.com on a computer and set one up first. You will need an Apple Id for many services Apple offers such as iCloud backups, iMessage messages, Facetime audio and video calls and of course to buy apps from the App Store or music and other media from iTunes. I highly recommend that during the setup process you enable touch Id and scan your fingerprint because that make it much easier to unlock your device. When it comes to typing on your phone, there are 3 styles: standard, touch typing and direct touch typing. I will not even go into direct touch typing as it is the most difficult to master and something for you to look at once you are further advanced in learning how to use your phone. By default standard typing is selected and if you have Voiceover on and a sighted person is helping you, make sure you explain that icons, buttons and so on have to be double tapped since for a sighted person all you have to do is touch something to activateit. Also, when it comes to typing, standard typing requires you to first find the letter, number or symbol you want to type and after Voiceover speaks it, you have to double tap anywhere on the screen just like when you activate a button or link. Alternatively, you can leave one finger on the letter after you find it and touch the screen with a second finger and that will also type it. You do have to be careful, however, that your first finger doesn't move as you do this. Touch typing means that you can touch a letter and it is typed as you lift the finger off it. Then you go find the next letter you want and again lift your finger to type it. This is preferred by most more advanced users, but in order to select touch typing you have to first master another gesture which is called the rotor. The rotor is a bit like a context menu and the gesture is done with 2 fingers and it's a turning/rotating motion similar to when you place 2 fingers on each side of a round knob like on a washer, dryer or dish washer and you turn the knob. On the iPhone you would place 2 fingers on the screen slightly apart and then do a clockwise or counter clockwise motion. You can repeat this gesture and each time you do it you may hear Voiceover say things like characters, words, headings and so on. In order to select touch typing you first of all have to be in an edit field since some items on the rotor are only present when the context requires them to be there and then you have to do this turning motion until you hear Typing Mode. Now if you use a single finger to flick from the top of the screen down towards the bottom it will change your typing mode from standard to touch typing, do it a second time and it goes from touch typing to direct touch typing, do it a third time and it wraps around back up to standard typing. If you flick to direct touch typing you can also flick up from the bottom to the top and go back up the list. If you do want to set touch typing as your style, then make sure after you have accomplished this to turn the rotor back to something like characters or words because otherwise you will most likely accidently change it again since all it takes is a flick up or down on the screen. I hope this helps a bit.

That hello thing is initial setup by the sound of it; and this is where it chooses the language. It'll not do anyhthing useful until the setup part is finished. After that, learning to tap quick enough accurately so your finger doesn't slide on the screen as you do it, or the focus moves, as you found out. Otherwise, flick right or left to skip forward or back through all the items on the screen; find a starting point by putting your finger somewhere on the screen, then do flicks after that;saves flicking over the whole screen and also saves groping about all over it looking for the one item.

The link to the original post may be found at the end of the text. Mark The dark side of Apple's two-factor authentication Earlier this week, a strange message popped up on my Mac that I thought nothing of. You can't sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons. I dismissed it in my tired haze, thinking it would solve itself and went to sleep. The next morning, I didn't have time to deal with the message - which was now popping up every half hour - for a few hours until it became annoying. I figured I'd done something dumb and broken iCloud, but that it could wait. I'd turned two-factor on my Apple ID in haste when I read Mat Honan's harrowing story about how his Mac, iPhone and other devices were wiped when someone broke into his iCloud account. That terrified me into thinking about real security for the first time. When I finally had time to investigate the errors appearing on my machine, I discovered that not only had my iCloud account been locked, but someone had tried to break in. Two-factor had done its job and kept the attacker out, however, it had also inadvertently locked me out. The Apple support page relating to lockouts assured me it would be easy to recover my account with a combination of any two of either my password, a trusted device or the two-factor recovery key. When I headed to the account recovery service, dubbed iForgot, I discovered that there was no way back in without my recovery key. That's when it hit me; I had no idea where my recovery key was or if I'd ever even put the piece of paper in a safe place. I've moved since I set up two-factor on iCloud. I began nervously scouring the entire house for the code, before giving up after a few frustrating hours and began searching my computer for any trace of it. I found countless recovery keys but they weren't for the right things; for my Mac's hard-drive encryption, Twitter, Facebook and other accounts, but not for my Apple ID. How could I be foolish enough to misplace my Apple ID recovery key? I swore that I'd taken a screenshot, printed it and had taken a photo of it with my iPhone for extra safekeeping. This is when it began to sink in that this single ID held the keys to much of my digital life; everything from iTunes purchases going back seven years, app purchases and even the ability to get my iPhone out of the grips of Find my iPhone's lock. The sinking feeling began. After fruitlessly searching and a lot of cussing, I decided to call Apple. I figured

iPad Mini 2
Hi all, I want to share this experience with you all. This morning I was playing with the TuneIn Radio app on my iPad Mini 2 when all of a sudden sound quit working unless I use Siri. I then rebooted the device several times with no joy. I even tried the volume buttons with no joy either. So in the end I had to restore using iTunes. But lol! Find my iPad was enabled so guess what? I had to restore the iPad Mini 2 in recovery mode! To do this whilst connected to iTunes press and hold the home and sleep/wake buttons for about ten seconds, after which release the sleep/wake button but keep the home button down until you see a message from iTunes that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click ok and restore as usual. You can do this even with Find My iPad, Find My iPhone or Find My iPod enabled. The first time was an absolute failure because the problem came back after restoring from an iTunes backup. So had to do it all over again, but this time it was a success after setting it up as a new device in iTunes. So all morning I downloaded all my apps and configure the device in general. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: Are you loving your iPhone 6 plus?
Hi Annie, I think I am about to take the plunge and get the 6. Are you still finding ways in which VoiceOver is not working the way you expected it to? When you're in Safari, can you go backwards to the web page you were on immediately before? Have you tried the on-screen braille and is it easy to learn to do? Can you, or anyone, suggest pod-casts that address on-screen brailling? Thanks so much, and I'm so glad you are happy with your 6. That's encouraging!

As Robyn has said, the battery life is enough of a reason in itself. Being able to crank up GPS, music, and other apps when you're away from a power source for a long time and not have to worry about running out of juice is liberating. If you are a Braille user, you may also like the fact that the larger screen makes Braille screen input a breeze, and I think the larger screen also helps for direct touch typing. Both of these options mean I use my external Bluetooth keyboard hardly ever now. KNFB Reader have said on Twitter that the 6 Plus is the best phone to use with it right now because of optical image stabilisation. This is particularly the case if you have issues keeping the camera totally steady when taking a picture. It's also very fast, but of course, so is the 6. I wouldn't like to return to a smaller phone, and hope Apple keeps a device in this screen size in future. Definitely get your hands on one before buying if you can though.

RE: next glass app
Sandra and others, Well, the app is rather new, but it would be worth it for those few (or is that most) of you who like beer and wine in Ireland, England, etc, to write the company and say something like “hey, we like beer and wine here too, what gives?” grin. Seriously, it can’t hurt for visually impaired folks and others outside the United States to ask that the app be made accessible and available. To give a little more background, the company actually sent folks around the country to buy up local beers and send or take them back to their headquarters and do a chemical analysis of each beer along with tasting them and giving them ratings. They were looking for the chemical similarities between beers that folks like or describe in the same way. That way they think they were able to isolate some chemical reasons why they taste the way they do and can then recommend beers with those same characteristics that someone maybe hasn’t tried. The company thinks this is a more neutral way than going by some persons subjective tasting notes. I heard about this from a sighted person who had participated in the beta round before the app became widely available, at least widely available in the U.S. I think it is an interesting project, but they need to do some serious work on the app before VoiceOver users can join in.

Re: The dark side of Apple's two-factor authentication
Apple was actually doing their job here, what if that wasn't the real person, but a hacker instead? If you're going to use that kind of security, you need to understand the responsibility that goes with it. Again, personally I think using 2 step security and file vault is overkill, but if you choose to use it and then you don't keep track of your key, you have no one to blame but yourself. Original message: I do agree with this, Merv. The lady in th article does make some valid points but to me, she sounded a little whiny. Now I know it is frustrating but if you know there is 2 step verification and you use it, keep your stuff in multiple safe locations.

I found countless recovery keys but they weren't for the right things; for my Mac's hard-drive encryption, Twitter, Facebook and other accounts, but not for my Apple ID. How could I be foolish enough to misplace my Apple ID recovery key? I swore that I'd taken a screenshot, printed it and had taken a photo of it with my iPhone for extra safekeeping. This is when it began to sink in that this single ID held the keys to much of my digital life; everything from iTunes purchases going back seven years, app purchases and even the ability to get my iPhone out of the grips of Find my iPhone's lock. The sinking feeling began. After fruitlessly searching and a lot of cussing, I decided to call Apple. I figured that something must be wrong, since the support page claims you can use trusted devices to recover your ID in cases like this. The first person I spoke to told me immediately after getting on the phone that in no uncertain terms I had forfeit my Apple ID by losing the recovery key. He refused to help me. I hung up and called back. On the second call, I got a lovely woman who totally understood my plight and how terrible it was. She told me a similar thing had happened to her, and it had turned out OK. After 20 minutes of poking around and lots of awkward sighing, she put me on hold to talk to a senior manager. When she got back on the line, the story was just as bleak. We take your security very seriously at Apple she told me but at this time we cannot grant you access back into your Apple account. We recommend you create a new Apple ID. I couldn't believe what I was hearing and fought back that surely there was some other way, but I was told point blank that Apple would not help me. I offered a scan of my government ID, my trusted devices and other proof that it was me. Nope, that won't do for Apple in this situation. She apologized profusely and said there was nothing more should do. Furious about the situation, I took to Twitter in a fit of rage, complaining that Apple couldn't help me out of a dumb situation, in which I could easily prove who I was.

Hi, Please read my post with subject, iPad Mini 2. The same will aply to iPhone and iPod Touch regardless of iOS version. However, I will add here that if you do the restore in iTunes you will have to make do with the upgraded iOS. Apple does not allow you to reinstall the same iOS unless it's the current one. Apple verifies the build of iOS about to be installed. If verification fails it can't be done. This is caused by you trying to install an older build of iOS that Apple is currently signing.

Re: shortcut hints
That is a hint. Hints are spoken about a second after whatever you touch, if a hint is present. You don't need to wait for the hint before you keep moving, though. To disable hints, go to Settings General Accessibility VoiceOver, and double tap the speak hints, on switch button to turn it off. This will disable all hints, though, which I don't recommend for new users or for anyone if a major upgrade has just been installed. You can miss messages that tell you what some button or other control does, and hints for even basic things can serve as a reminder on what to do if you forget. Your other option is to put Hints in your rotor. This way, you can rotor to Hints and flick up or down to turn them on or off, letting you enable them when you need to. From VoiceOver's settings, find Rotor and double tap. Find Hints, double tap so VO says it is selected, and you're done.

RE: updating to ios 8.12
Hi, I agree that some might think that doing an iTunes backup, clearing app switcher, and all the other things might be overkill. However when you are the one who did all these things and you are the one who survived a data loss from something going wrong with your upgrade, it won’t seem like an overkill any ore. In some cases what I do is an iTunes encrypted backup first, and then once it’s connected there to the pc after the backup, I just upgrade. However if I don’t use iTunes, and just do an OTA upgrade, I still backup to iTunes first in case of catastrophe. I may not do everything that others do, but I still don’t just update over the air either. Cheers.

RE: happy upgrading - ios8.12 is out and updating now here
My guess for those wondering, is that the main purpose of the fix was to address themissing ring tone issue. I read on Twitter that the main kernel of the iOS 8.1.1 wasn't even upgraded. This tells me it's a minor update indeed if the main kernel is still the same. So, what this means is that people should not expect a huge bug fix all of a sudden by upgrading from 8.1.1 to 8.1.2. Now, if you are on anything older than 8.1.1, then you should definitely upgrade, especially if you are on 8.0 or 8.0.2. For those of you still on 7.X, only you guys can decide on whether to upgrade or nt. I won't go into all that because it's been rehashed to death on this list on who and who should and should not upgrade to iOS 8.X.

RE: shortcut hints
Ah, the beauty of the rotor again! Only thing is that when I am swiping or tapping around I toggle what the rotor is set on so I continually turn sounds on and off, etc. I'm laughing. I'll just keep touching around to shortcut vo and see what kind of lag there is! I discovered something interesting today. I went into a Utilities folder the former user must have created. Voice memos, calculator, compass and contacts were in there. I'm not even sure what app I opened except after awhile I seemed to be in an edit field and later when I was trying to close everything and app switcher wasn't saying anything was open, I swear I was still in an edit field and it appeared as if I was in Safari. I swiped up with 3 fingers even though vo was not giving me any feedback and finally got out of the edit field and closed whatever I had inadvertently opened. Anyway, no matter which apps search field I was in, I found the letters easily. This leads me to ask if the keyboard is easier to use in some applications than others, or might I be approaching the possibility of actually being able to find the letters I want? I even saw that I could flick and run through the letters, vo spoke the shift key and more numbers etc. Subject: Re: shortcut hints That is a hint. Hints are spoken about a second after whatever you touch, if a hint is present. You don't need to wait for the hint before you keep moving, though.

Hi, This works on the iPhone 5, with one caveat. I have my ringer volume set quite high, so it's normally louder than the normal VoiceOver speech. So, the first announcement of the caller ID is at that higher volume. When I mute and unmute the phone, the ID is announced again, but now at the normal level of VoiceOver. Thanks for this.

They seemed wonky to me and did not play music similar to the chosen artist. I truly can’t believe Slacker did this again. Last time it took them a long time to fix it.

Announcement of darks guy notifications
Hi all, sometime back people were wondering if dark sky would alert to freezing rain or sleet or frozen precipitation. It does alert to sleet and snow, but I don't know about freezing rain yet. Although that a freezing rain advisory was issued today so I believe that it would alert to freezing rain also. So to clarify this is just to answer the question that people were wondering about sometime back and I said that I would write in if I got any answer to the question.

I need to look in to the firmware update as there seems to be an awful lot of bass and I am not sure if there is a way to lower the bass as I am hearing the bass when listening to spoken word on a podcast and it just seems to high.

Sprint: It May Be Worth Taking Another Look
Hello Everyone, First, just so you know, I am both a Verizon Wireless and A T T Wireless customer. The reason I am posting this is to let you know that a couple of days ago, I helped a friend migrate from a Galaxy Note 2, on Verizon Wireless, to an iPhone 6 Plus with Sprint. I only deal with corporate stores as I think they provide the best service and pricing. Anyway, I convinced her to switch to sprint for several reasons not the least of which being that Sprint offers unlimited, and as I have discovered, unthrottled data speeds. So, for her, not only did Sprint buy her out of her current Verizon Wireless contract, they waved her activation fee and, even by leasing the phone for two years, her monthly bill is $10 less than it was with Verizon Wireless where she had a data cap and a limited number of texts. Also, her monthly fee includes insurance for the phone. Moreover, in her case, she is getting much better cell coverage with Sprint than with Verizon. Now, of course the usual caveats must be observed such as Sprint's overall coverage in a particular area and such. However, the primary reason I am so impressed with Sprint is because of this new Half Off promotion they've just started. They want Verizon and A T T Wireless customers and, they are willing to pay for them. Effectively, if those customers switch to sprint, they will give you the same service you have with A T T or Verizon Wireless at half your current rate. Now, for me, for instance, since I have both unlimited everything on both Verizon Wireless and A T T Wireless, I could switch to Sprint for half my monthly fee on either. I was truly impressed with the level of customer service we received from Sprint and, if you're looking to save money and you're not happy with your current provider, perhaps you should give Sprint another look. As for me, because I am in the middle of beta testing both Verizon Wireless and A T T Wireless specific products, I won't be switching to Sprint but, I can tell you that if I did not already have unlimited talk, data, and texting with my current providers, I would switch to Sprint in a proverbial heartbeat. One more thing, perhaps it just in this area but I swear the data speed in this area is faster on Sprint than on A T T Wireless. We were able to download Alex in what seems like no time at all, while in the car with the phone connected to the charger. For your convenience, I will paste in some support text directly from the Sprint site that talks about the new Half Off plan. The link to the original article may be found at the bottom of the text. One more thing, I love that 6 Plus. It is a beautiful piece of technology. I can't wait to get one for myself.

naming calendar appointments using Siri
Hey folks, this will be my last question of the day. I hope it's not obvious, but when I asked Siri to schedule an appt, I didn't know in what order to tell her the specifics such as date, time and name of the appointment. It seems she is titling all the appointments as appointment. I don't get confirmation of the date unless I ask her later if I have an appt on that day. I don't think the date is even spoken when later I ask her to check if I have any appointments then tell her to give me the details once she has asked.

Re: naming calendar appointments using Siri
Try saying this: new calendar event, team meeting, next Friday at 2 That should do the trick. I'm not sure I follow your question about the dates, can you elaborate? Thanks.

Re: Announcement of darks guy notifications
Hi, As I stated previously its main focus is the alerting of precipitation. It does not do severe weather alerts. You'd need to use another app to gain access to those. I hope that clarifies. And yes it does alert for any precipitation frozen or other wise. We had sleet and snow flurries today.

RE: naming calendar appointments using Siri
Alex First I didn't know that I could say all of that at once. Rather than say New calendar event, team meeting, next Friday at 2 I asked Siri to schedule or create an appointment. Then she asked for date and time, and I gave a specific date. How can I give the appointment or event a name like PT or massage without having to go into calendar and writing it in?

Re: Sprint: It May Be Worth Taking Another Look
If someone wants access to the Sprint network, consider a provider called Ting. with this company consumers pay what they use. Why should someone pay for an unlimited plan if the consumer isn't talking thousands of minutes a month or audio or video streaming hours a day? With Ting, it is the same cell service at much lower prices than Sprint.

The reason I am posting this is to let you know that a couple of days ago, I helped a friend migrate from a Galaxy Note 2, on Verizon Wireless, to an iPhone 6 Plus with Sprint. I only deal with corporate stores as I think they provide the best service and pricing. Anyway, I convinced her to switch to sprint for several reasons not the least of which being that Sprint offers unlimited, and as I have discovered, unthrottled data speeds. So, for her, not only did Sprint buy her out of her current Verizon Wireless contract, they waved her activation fee and, even by leasing the phone for two years, her monthly bill is $10 less than it was with Verizon Wireless where she had a data cap and a limited number of texts. Also, her monthly fee includes insurance for the phone. Moreover, in her case, she is getting much better cell coverage with Sprint than with Verizon. Now, of course the usual caveats must be observed such as Sprint's overall coverage in a particular area and such. However, the primary reason I am so impressed with Sprint is because of this new Half Off promotion they've just started. They want Verizon and A T T Wireless customers and, they are willing to pay for them. Effectively, if those customers switch to sprint, they will give you the same service you have with A T T or Verizon Wireless at half your current rate. Now, for me, for instance, since I have both unlimited everything on both Verizon Wireless and A T T Wireless, I could switch to Sprint for half my monthly fee on either. I was truly impressed with the level of customer service we received from Sprint and, if you're looking to save money and you're not happy with your current provider, perhaps you should give Sprint another look. As for me, because I am in the middle of beta testing both Verizon Wireless and A T T Wireless specific products, I won't be switching to Sprint but, I can tell you that if I did not already have unlimited talk, data, and texting with my current providers, I would switch to Sprint in a proverbial heartbeat.

We were paying over $120.00 a month when we were both locked into Sprint. We got both our phones (her 4S and my 5) internationally unlocked. Domestic unlocking is still not possible.

Re: continuem reading with iBooks on iOS8?
Hello, Both the two-finger flick up and two-finger flick down commands for continuous reading work for me in iBooks. It is necessary to first touch the content portion of the display before issuing either command. Otherwise, VO reads the entire current screen rather than the book text.

RE: test
Hi Laury, If you refer to the message about making ringtones then the answer is Yes, you can make ringtones from songs. You can do this in many different ways using one of a number of apps out there, any third-party program which allows you to cut a 40 second or less segment from a song or you can use iTunes. I prefer iTunes since it’s already on my PC anyways and I posted detailed instructions not that long ago as to how to do this. If you go to the list archive (link is at the bottom of all messages) you can find it by searching for “Creating ringtones from songs using iTunes 12 - the complete guide” which was the subject of the post.

RE: Home Thermostat Controlled by iPhone
Andy, I have been using the thermostat by www.RadioThermostat.com http://www.RadioThermostat.com for several years now and they work great and the app is accessible. I know a few people posted that they have been able to find the thermostat which I believe is $140 from the website for $99 from Home Depot. Of course you also will need a professional installer to install this since it requires an extra wire to be run from the furnace to wherever you want the thermostat. This is a 24 Volt line which provides power to the thermostat. If you are lucky your existing cable may have 4 wires in it in which case you are good, if not a completely new cable may need to be installed. You can also search the archive for “Radio Thermostat” and you’ll find some of the old posts. There is also a WiFi thermostat from Nest available, but it’s more expensive and I don’t know about the accessibility although one would hope that it is accessible. You can easily find it on the Apple Store since it is sold there. Just look under “home automation”, can’t remember the price, but I think it was over $200. There is starting to be all sorts of neat stuff showing up in the area of home automation. I just purchased 3 wireless security monitoring cameras for my retail business. They are from a company called Dropcam which I believe was purchased by Nest. Of course I can’t see the camera feed, but the app is very accessible, I could easily set up the cameras and they do have 2-way voice communication so I can open the app, select a camera and hear what it picks up and the Talkback button is accessible so I can talk through the built-in speaker. I am also about to order the first WiFi connected thermostat which is now available for in-floor heating from the company Nuheat. It is called the “Signature” and I was able to find it for $190 (most places including Amazon sell it for $250 to $275). The app which I already downloaded has a demo mode and it seems to be very accessible. Like I said, all sorts of neat stuff out there and I really want to buy some of the Philipps Hue LED light bulbs which you can control with an app (turn them on/off, dim them, change their colour, program them to come on at certain times and all that), but they are still quite expensive and I am hoping the price might come down as competitors may also release products like that.

RE: Is it possible to forward text messages or print them
Not sure about printing, but you can definitely forward it to email. Just swipe down on a message in a thread, you'll hear Voiceover say More. Double tap and the message you were on will be selected. You can double tap other messages in the thread to select them although unfortunately Voiceover does not say selected. Then at the bottom you have an option to delete on the left and an option to forward on the right.

Beginner questions [was Re: shortcut hints]
If you're changing roter settings then IOS is interpreting your touches, swipes and taps as flicks up and down. I'm not sure if it's been mentioned or not, but you might want to check out the VoiceOver practice area. by going into Settings - General - Accessibility - VoiceOver and double tap on the VoiceOver practice button. The keyboard is the same in every application, but if IOS knows you're entering an email address, you will see a few extra keys on the keyboard down around the space bar, like the at symbol and the period.

Only thing is that when I am swiping or tapping around I toggle what the rotor is set on so I continually turn sounds on and off, etc. I’m laughing. *I’ll just keep touching around to shortcut vo and see what kind of lag there is!* *I discovered something interesting today. I went into a Utilities folder the former user must have created. Voice memos, calculator, compass and contacts were in there. I’m not even sure what app I opened except after awhile I seemed to be in an edit field and later when I was trying to close everything and app switcher wasn’t saying anything was open, I swear I was still in an edit field and it appeared as if I was in Safari. I swiped up with 3 fingers even though vo was not giving me any feedback and finally got out of the edit field and closed whatever I had inadvertently opened. Anyway, no matter which apps search field I was in, I found the letters easily. This leads me to ask if the keyboard is easier to use in some applications than others, or might I be approaching the possibility of actually being able to find the letters I want? I even saw that I could flick and run through the letters, vo spoke the shift key and more numbers etc. * ** *Subject:*Re: shortcut hints That is a hint. Hints are spoken about a second after whatever you touch, if a hint is present. You don't need to wait for the hint before you keep moving, though. To disable hints, go to Settings General Accessibility VoiceOver, and double tap the speak hints, on switch button to turn it off. This will disable all hints, though, which I don't recommend for new users or for anyone if a major upgrade has just been installed. You can miss messages that tell you what some button or other control does, and hints for even basic things can serve as a reminder on what to do if you forget. Your other option is to put Hints in your rotor. This way, you can rotor to Hints and flick up or down to turn them on or off, letting you enable them when you need to. From VoiceOver's settings, find Rotor and double tap. Find Hints, double tap so VO says it is selected, and you're done. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

RE: Is it possible to forward text messages or print them
Max, More is the only option in the action rotor. What you do, however, is double tap on More. As I said, this will select the message you have focus on even though there is no indication that it is selected. You can then flick through the conversation and double tap on other messages to select them.
