Re: Can you download Alex and other high quality voices on to an iPhone 5c?
Does the processor of the 6 make a noticeable difference in speed to those who have moved up from a 5C or a 5S? I guess there must be a noticeable difference for those who have moved straight from a 4S. Anyway, I'd be interested in comments.

All high quality or enhanced quality voices are available on phones with 32 bit processors, like the 5C 5, and 4S. Alex can only be downloaded on devices with 64 bit processors, like iPhone 5S, 6, 6 plus, iPad air 2, etc. The determining factor is the processor.

Re: Traveling with iPhone 6
I have the same Battery and its great! but one piece of advice. Don't use a 30 pin to lightning adapter on that battery. It will think your charging a device as soons as you plug the adapter in. I tried that and it told me it was charging as soon as I plugged the adapter in. To bad but it makes sense.

As for the 20 pin connector it is not very useful with my 5S and the adaptor is too expensive. I am considering a 6 inch USB to lightning cable for $9.95 from the people who make the SoapBox. I use the micro USB connector all the time to charge my JamBox mini, my Bluiz 2 bone conduction headset and also my Bluetooth transmitter that I use on other devices that have an earphone jack but are not Bluetooth. I also like the idea that I can unfold the prongs and plug it in a wall socket and recharge it in only 4 hours.

I am not sure, however, if the current model still talks because I think I heard that the updated model did not to so any more. I have the old version which has attached short cables for Micro USB and it also has a 30-Pin Apple connector. This was a nice feature when I still had my 4S because I didn’t even need an additional cable. I guess I could get a 30 Pin to Lightning adapter, but I have not done so because given it’s price I just don’t think it’s worth it and eventually all batteries wear out so most likely my next one either just has ports to plug in a cable or I’ll buy one with a Lightning cable. Being able to push the button on the battery and hear “Battery is full” or “Battery is less than 50%” and so on is a nice feature, but not crutial. I assume one could probably use an app like Tap Tap See to get feedback as to how many LED’s are lit up and get information about the battery status that way or just asking somebody is of course always a good alternative.

It has four USB ports and can even fully charge my iPad. If your requirements a less dramatic, there are some much smaller versions with less capacity. The Anker packs get very good reviews, and so do the LimeAide devices. My fiancee has a 12,000 MhA one from LimeAid. It works well and is a lot smaller than mine. There is also a model from another manufacturer that talks, but its capacity I think is only 6,00 MhA, which should be fine if you only need to charge the phone once.

Re: drum/rhythm app?
While it hasn't been updated in a long time, GigDaddy $2.99 has a good drum machine, but is also a multi-track recorder. It still works with iOS 8 though it hasn't been updated since 2011. If you search for free drum machine there are tons of free apps you could try out that would probably be less complex than GigDaddy.

download own ringtones to iPhone
Hi folks I am trying to add ringtones to my iPhone. 1. I have made an mp3 file of 6 seconds with mp3directcut and saved to my hard disk. 2. I added the file to my itunes library and that went fine. 3. I searched for the file rightclick on it and make it to a aac format version. 4. I renamed the file in windows with the extention m4r in the unknown album directory. 5. I copied the file also into the tones directory of Itunes Media. 6. My iPhone got synchronised by itunes and I specified to sync all tones. However, the tone won't sync and is also not visible in the tones in Itunes. What am I doing wrong? It is a small mp3 to m4r file of which I want to make an sms tone. Regards Davy -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

RE: Looking for a free, or cheap, accessible barcode reader
Actually, the original price of DigitEyes was $29.99, then they reduced the entire package to $19.99 and there are a couple component parts that are $9.99. I always recommend folks go for the full package. I noticed on my 5S running iOS 8.1.2 that it is much faster than it used to be. They do keep working on it and the database of codes is one of the most complete there is. But, it will never be as fast as a stand alone barcode reader like the ID Mates. But, $19.99 compared to $1,250 or so is worth being a bit slower. There are, apparently, some Bluetooth scanners that will interface with DigitEyes but they are not cheap. They have information on their web site.

Hi Diedre, Often, the delete button is on the very right edge fairly near the bottom, to the right of the p and slightly down. It works like the backspace in that it deletes the character you are on and then to the left. The exception is when you are typing a phone number in the dial pad when the delete key is on the right bbut fairly near the top of the screen slightly above the first row of numbers. The dictate button is often to the left of the spacebar whenyou are in an edit field or in a file where you can input. Be patient with yourself as you learn!

RE: hallelujah- I'm getting there
The first time after installing iOS 8.1 or maybe it was just 8, when I attempted to dictate I was asked to give it access to the microphone. I’m not finding any setting, so get into a text edit area where you have the keyboard showing. See if you can find the dictate button to the left of the spacebar. It is very small, so move your finger very slowly. Or, try a two finger double tap and if you here a ding, say what you want to dictate and then do another two finger double tap. That should do it and if it needs permission to access the microphone, a message will pop up.

RE: making a phone call
If she checks near the call end call button, there is a button to show keypad. It is a bit challenging to hear the numbers over the instructions from the service you are calling. If it is a place she calls regularly, and the options are consistant, you can program them into the phone number. Edit the phone number in the contacts, then at the lower left of the keypad there is a shift key, double tap that, or if she is using touch typing, just touch and lift, then just above that she will find a comma. Each comma represents a pause. It seems to be about 3 to 5 seconds, I'm not exactly sure. So put in one or more commas, then the number that needs to be pressed and so on. It may take a little trial and error, but once it is working, you don't have to mess with trying to enter numbers while listening to the recorded menu.

Re: hallelujah- I'm getting there
Hi, You seem to have had some answers here but the one you may still be missing is how to delete a wrong character. You need to slide your finger up the right-hand side of the keyboard, just a little way, passing the Return key as you go, and there's a delete button there. It is quite small so go slowly at first, to get used to finding it. If you have some text selected, it will delete that text. If you just want to delete a previous character when writing in a text field, just slide your finger onto it then lift it and the character you have just deleted will be announced. Hope this helps.

I found the Music app and saw the free stuff you could listen to, or buy, courtesy I Tunes. The categories and playing screen was pretty easy to navigate - I hope they change that up sometimes. Maybe if I hit the like button on things I really like, it will influence what it will show me? I went to Safari and was overwhelmed. I Hit on item chooser but had forgotten how to go through the alphabetized list I had read about. When I saw the search field in Music as well as Safari, I tried typing, and voila, I could do it. Only thing is I could not find the equivalent of a back space button for deleting misspelled characters. I guess I'll go into settings and check auto correct which normally I don't like. I was pretty sure there was also a dictate button or a way to use Siri to tell it what you wanted to search for, but I didn't get that going. It's back to Dresner for a second or third read.

RE: Can you download Alex and other high quality voices on to an iPhone 5c?
Carol, Coming from anything less than a 5S you would notice a difference. The difference between the A7 processor of the 5S and the A8 of the 6 and 6 Plus is minor. In benchmark tests there is a difference of 20 to 25%, but I doubt you would notice much in day-to-day use. Those who do say there is a significant difference are probably experiencing this because maybe setting up a new iPhone 6 has improved the overall performance just as it may have done if they had wiped their 5S and reinstalled it.

RE: 6+
Hi Jessica, There are really only 3 main differences: first of all the size would be the most noticeable difference. Second is battery life which is double or close to double in a 6 Plus because it has a 2,900 MAH battery which vs the 1,560 MAH in a 5S and lastly the camera has optical image stabilization which may or may not help with apps like KNFB Reader and so on. I still haven't seen a definitive article on whether it really does make a difference and I think maybe it could make a difference for people who don't have a steady hand, but if you can hold your iPhone still then it probably won't make that much of a difference. Then of course there are things like the power button which on the 6 Plus is on the right side at the top rather than on the top at the right corner and the 6 Plus has somewhat better speakers. As for the processor, the 6 Plus has the A8 processor, but in benchmark tests the difference between the A7 processor which is in the 5S and which is already a 64 Bit processor and the A8 is only about 20 to 25% and I doubt you will find that this increase will make much of a difference in day-to-day use. Most things on a 5S only take a few seconds so I guess if something took 5 seconds like maybe recognizing a larger document in KNFB Reader, it may take only 4 seconds on a 6 Plus. I certainly think that upgrading from a 5S to a 6 Plus is a waste of money for most people, only situation where it might make sense was for somebody who really depends on getting the best possible battery life or maybe if you do tons of typing and you totally can master direct touch typing with the phone in landscape mode on a table in front of you or maybe using braille input in the same way.

RE: download own ringtones to iPhone
Hi Davy, You still have to make sure the tone is actually added to yoru Tones library. If it doesn't show up in Tones in iTunes it means it has not been added. You can add it either by going to it in your Tones folder and just pressing enter on it so it plays in iTunes or you can open iTunes, go to the File menu, then select Add File to Library. Now browse to your iTunes Media\Tones folder, find the ringtone and then tab to Select and activate it. Now your tone should show up in the tones library and if you selected to sync all tones it should synbc across to your phone next time you do a sync. You don't have to have the tone in any other locations other than your Tones folder so you can delete it if it's still in your music library. Let me know if this worked.

RE: Traveling with iPhone 6

RE: making a phone call
Using a headset may help in terms of hearing Voiceover over your call. If my keypad is hidden I usually touch just above the home key and find the End Call button, then I swipe left until I get to keypad or you can just touch the phone about where the volume down button is and you should find the keypad button there. The following is a list of the buttons you have on the screen during a call if the keypad is hidden (that is from top to bottom): Name/number for your call Time elapsed Mute Keypad Selected, Speaker Add Call Facetime Contacts End Call I put selected in front of Speaker because this is what Voiceover says if speakerphone is active, it will just say Speaker if it is not, e.g. if you are using a headset. If you touch End Call above the home key, you would have to swipe left 5 times to get to the Keypad button. I hope this helps, sometimes I find it much easier to find something if I know what is there and I can visualize what the screen layout looks like.

It is a bit challenging to hear the numbers over the instructions from the service you are calling. If it is a place she calls regularly, and the options are consistant, you can program them into the phone number. Edit the phone number in the contacts, then at the lower left of the keypad there is a shift key, double tap that, or if she is using touch typing, just touch and lift, then just above that she will find a comma. Each comma represents a pause. It seems to be about 3 to 5 seconds, I'm not exactly sure. So put in one or more commas, then the number that needs to be pressed and so on.

There is another that just came out a couple weeks ago. It’s called current for face book. if you type current in the search box on the mac app store, it should be the first result you get.

RE: hallelujah- I'm getting there
Carol I'm playing with all this now. I'm using the double tap to choose a letter. With phone in hand I will reread the section in Dresner that talks about this, including selecting more than a single character, what you must be thinking of as selecting text. I went back to music though and found the dictation button after I practiced typing. I got all the letters right for the name of the band/artist but turned nothing up. Plus I didn't remember how to tell it to search for what I'd written. All the same, whatever I hit on did result in being told that there were no results. Was it a double tap to tell it to go ahead and search? The double tap is what I did to enter the edit field I think and it was what I did once in the search field to turn dictation on and off. I love dictation but I am also thrilled however that I can now type. Funny thing is that I did not practice at all for over a week - I just stopped trying planning to come back to it. In that period of time, my own cellular coordinates reorganized themselves and now I can find the letters just fine. In dog training and likely with people as well, they call this latent learning.

You need to slide your finger up the right-hand side of the keyboard, just a little way, passing the Return key as you go, and there's a delete button there. It is quite small so go slowly at first, to get used to finding it. If you have some text selected, it will delete that text. If you just want to delete a previous character when writing in a text field, just slide your finger onto it then lift it and the character you have just deleted will be announced. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: Looking for a free, or cheap, accessible barcode reader
It takes a bit of practice, because the bar codes are very small. You may have to slowly back away from the item to be scanned, to a distance of 8 inches or so. Move the camera with a steady hand, and the key is, slowly! When you're almost right on the bar code, Digit-Eyes will give a beep, and then if it finds the bar code, it will begin to read the result that it found in the database through the Internet. --- Be positive!

Re: IOS 8.1.2 (cannot open Contacts using VoiceOver)
OK. I tried having Siri opening Contacts. It didn’t work. Then tried opening the Contacts myself…it didn’t work. Then, I handed the phone to my niece. She opened it without VoiceOver being on. So, I tried it again. And, it showed me to be an idiot to my 13 year old niece. It worked fine. You don’t know how many times I’ve tried opening Contacts. Shutting down the phone. Turning VoiceOver on and off. Going into the Settings. Nothing since upgrading. And, all of a sudden it works. Go figure!

Re: Is Keyboard issue fix on 8.1.2?
It's been generally fine for me but I have managed to produce the double characters a few times. I think it may have to do with the way I (and possibly others) interact with the keyboard. I'm talking specifically for me about the Apple keyboard here, but I know others were having problems also. For me it was in my interaction of the Quick Nav keys and/or making the phone keyboard visible/not visible. I did try changing some of the harfd keyboard settings but to no avail. I couldn't get a pattern going for this double key action, try as I might this afternoon. Others may want to play here. I feel I can't really comment much further, apart from saying, again, that I still see the double characters on occasions, until I have found a reason/pattern for the occurrence, so I'll be glad of any other feedback on this one also. I'd like to think that, now I'm using this keyboard once again on a more frequent basis, I might eliminate these problems with correct interaction at the right times from myself.

It is a bit challenging to hear the numbers over the instructions from the service you are calling. If it is a place she calls regularly, and the options are consistant, you can program them into the phone number. Edit the phone number in the contacts, then at the lower left of the keypad there is a shift key, double tap that, or if she is using touch typing, just touch and lift, then just above that she will find a comma. Each comma represents a pause. It seems to be about 3 to 5 seconds, I'm not exactly sure. So put in one or more commas, then the number that needs to be pressed and so on.

RE: Looking for a free, or cheap, accessible barcode reader
It takes patience and practice. It also helps to have a general idea where the barcodes tend to be located. On Canned goods, the barcode is usually very close to the seam in the label. On boxes, they are usually on the bottom. Bags are also usually near the seam. It might help to get some sighted assistance if at all possible to get familiar with which part fo the package to focus on. The key is to start with the camera close to the item, then slowly, pull away so that the autofocus can kick in. If you move too fast or from side to side, the autofocus won't ever take over.

CREATING AN ALIAS WHEN USING ICLOUD
I noticed in a recent mail about FaceBook, it was suggested that you could create an Alias (presumably addresses) using ICloud. How many addresses are we actually allowed to have? This could be quite a useful tool to me in signing up for certain information but getting rid of spammers more permanently when the mailing for which I originally signed up (and subsequent spam mailings from others) isn't needed any more. I hope those of you who understand these things better than I can comment on this one. I know there are other methods/online services from which you can obtain an address which won't give out any of your private information, but they look a tad complicated for me and I just want some easy but efficient fixes for me particularly in cutting down the spammers. There are only so many you can block and I'm thinking that it might just be better to have Alias's that one can discard. If I'm off the mark here, forgive me, and I hope it's suitably within the scope of the list, since the question concerns ICloud Alias's in particular.

Re: hallelujah- I'm getting there
When you go into an edit field, you do double tap at that point. Then you enter your search word(s) and need either to find a Search button in some apps or usually the Enter key works here. I was thinking that you were in fact in an editfield and did want to delete a character, in which case the delete key here is what you want. Once you select text (which may be a few letters or lots more, then again you can tap the delete key and it will all go. Selecting and deleting text is really quite difficult to achieve, and I would suggest, if you're going to use an external keyboard, you may want to get used to this process (which is so much easier) doing it this way first at any rate. If you really need to do it without an additional hard keyboard, using the onboard keyboard, there are a number of things you can do and we can all help you here.

I’m using the double tap to choose a letter. With phone in hand I will reread the section in Dresner that talks about this, including selecting more than a single character, what you must be thinking of as selecting text. I went back to music though and found the dictation button after I practiced typing. I got all the letters right for the name of the band/artist but turned nothing up. Plus I didn’t remember how to tell it to search for what I’d written. All the same, whatever I hit on did result in being told that there were “no results.” Was it a double tap to tell it to go ahead and search? The double tap is what I did to enter the edit field I think and it was what I did once in the search field to turn dictation on and off. I love dictation but I am also thrilled however that I can now type. Funny thing is that I did not practice at all for over a week – I just stopped trying planning to come back to it. In that period of time, my own cellular coordinates reorganized themselves and now I can find the letters just fine. In dog training and likely with people as well, they call this latent learning.

It is quite small so go slowly at first, to get used to finding it. If you have some text selected, it will delete that text.

Re: IOS 8.1.2 (cannot open Contacts using VoiceOver)
Do I presume you've always opened Contacts OK before? If so then maybe this won't help. I havfe found on occasions, since IOS8, that it's been necessary to ensure I've actually been tapping on the button, rather than anywhere on the screen. Just tapping anywhere on the screen in these situations, after hearing the last item spoken which was the one that I'd wanted, just hasn't worked. It hasn't occurred with Contacts in my case and in fact I can't remember the last time I saw it now; but I do know it's not just been a case of hearing the last item as Contacts and double tapping the screen anywhere but actually finding the Contacts and positioning my finger on it to open. You might want to give it a go. I don't think it's a good work around myself and it shouldn't be necessary to position a finger on particular buttons to double tap them, but it sometimes is, so I live with it!

Re: IOS 8.1.2 (cannot open Contacts using VoiceOver)
I will have to pay attention to this irregularity. Never had a problem before this. And, it’s only happened to Contacts. It’s working fine now though. Or, it did last I checked.

I havfe found on occasions, since IOS8, that it's been necessary to ensure I've actually been tapping on the button, rather than anywhere on the screen. Just tapping anywhere on the screen in these situations, after hearing the last item spoken which was the one that I'd wanted, just hasn't worked. It hasn't occurred with Contacts in my case and in fact I can't remember the last time I saw it now; but I do know it's not just been a case of hearing the last item as Contacts and double tapping the screen anywhere but actually finding the Contacts and positioning my finger on it to open. You might want to give it a go. I don't think it's a good work around myself and it shouldn't be necessary to position a finger on particular buttons to double tap them, but it sometimes is, so I live with it!

Re: Looking for a free, or cheap, accessible barcode reader
Hello, I'm wondering if you have gone to the website and read the tips on finding the barcodes? I have been a user of Digit-Eyes from the very beginning when it was released. It takes practice to find the barcodes, but there are general concepts that I use depending upon what type of item I am attempting to scan. Can labels will have a seam that the edge will flap over from right to left. Usually, the barcode is to the left of this and toward the bottom. On square boxes, one can find the barcode opposite from the flap where one would open the box. I usually turn the box so the bottom is facing up and will start trying to find the barcode on the left side. These are just general tips and not all items will follow this. Digit-Eyes is only one app that I can choose from to obtain information on an item and is not the only app I'll use. It's nice to have several apps in my bag of tricks to get the job done. The best thing about Digit-Eyes is that I can create my own barcode labels and afix them to different items. HTH.

An interesting thing I found out today when I did a reset all settings
After I hit the reset all settings button the phone rebooted and voiceover came on. However, I had to enable Siri, which has never happened before. Usually Siri has been on when I have done a reset all settings. I also had to re-enabled dictation. Just wanted to put this in here in case some of you run into a problem when you do the reset all settings. I also had to go into the voiceover settings and reset the triple click home button. That was not enabled either after doing a reset all settings. With this new occurrence, it's a good thing voiceover comes on when he reset all settings is done because if it did not you could not turn it on using the phone.
