iPhone 5 battery replacement program

Re: Bluetooth Ear Bud/Headphones Inquiry
I have the LG HBS730 Bluetooth earphones. I got them from amazon for somewhere around $64.95, I think. They come with a charger that is a standard micro usb plug. The battery recharges pretty fast and you get around ten hours of use on a single charge. This model also has TTS to tell you the level of the battery charge and whether the earphones are connected to your phone when you turn them on. I use this headset for the same thing you do when walking and listening to blind square and it works well for me. I hope this helps. Oh, and one more point, there is a newer model (the hbs800) but the reviews seemed to indicate that the sound quality was superior with the 730, so that is the model I went with.

Direct Touch Typing, Not!
OK, some have claimed they can still use Direct Touch Typing in iOS 8.2. I don't think so. I have tested it on both a 5s and a 6 and it simply behaves the same as standard typing, meaning you have to double tap each letter. I've tried it when replying to an Email, composing an Email, entering text in an edit field, etc. If the typing mode is set to Direct Touch Typing, nothing happens unless I double tap on a letter. The regular Touch Typing still works as before. Personally, I always use the regular Touch Typing so I am fine with 8.2, but if I were someone who prefers Direct Touch Typing, I would be writing to accessibil...@apple.com JMTCW, Richard The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it. -- John Ruskin, 1819-:1900 -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

RE: medical transcription reference material
Yeah, and if I can get this training done and actually begin working I may consider this with the scripts but have to get all the preliminary stuff out of the way, if I can. Very discouraged at this point, it isn’t my MT knowledge that is holding me back it is their stuff and so far about 50% has been inaccessible. They sent me a document so full of pictures that I could not even print and then scan it back in and the lady said she had to “actually type the document” so I could read the instructions. Made me chuckle, it was not that long and typing it probably took a matter of a minute, provided she could read through the pictures, that is. Never having seen, I can’t understand why someone would put pictures over words as it was described to me. Even the Optacon would have had trouble had I tried to use it. I guess since it sounds confusing to me, I don’t see how someone with good vision would make sense of it. Then what do I know. Week to go and I feel as ready for this transition as I felt on my first day at the hospital using a MagCard typewriter a Lanier tank system with one take that was always getting off track. One report, a discharge summary by an OB-GYN I only understood the “thank you” at the end of the report. Then you have family who talked me into a custom-made desk, brought it and unloaded a shelving unit that was about 40 years old which had paper and other stuff in it but they used the large empty boxes I had been saving to unload my desk in the hospital and when I said those were for my office, they said they put my office stuff in them. LOL, now I have to find more boxes in less than six days. If it can go wrong lately it will. I want to dig a hole, climb in, and pull it in after me; this whole transition thing makes me feel really dumb.

Yes, I remember several years back I was on a USNEWS Group and several transcriptionists ere using Dragon and making a lot of lines doing it, most of them had hand problems, and I sort of had them after 39 years of transcription.

moving last roe apps, was Re: iOs 8.2
re the moving apps in the last roe problem, I have noticed something quite interesting, only as I have 3 iPhones, a 4S, a 5S, and a 6. on the 6, the problem doesn't exist, and that roe of apps can be moved as easily as any other. on the 5S, apps in that roe won't move, but folders will, so I have to move a couple of folders so that an app I want to move in that roe gets pushed in to another, when it can be moved normally. on the 4S, apps in that roe act the same as on the 5S, but so do some folders, so often I have to move them from other roes, to push the app I want to move in to another roe.

RE: iOs 8.2
Neal, I got this same hiccup too when I updated using iTunes for Windows 11.4.x. However, when I unplugged my lightning cable and reconnected it, iTunes then saw my updated iPhone 6.

When doing the update earlier, I hit the learn more button and read the full list of changes.

I'm sure you can do a search on the web to read more about that annoying bug. I recall seeing a few other bug fixes and enhancements that peeked my interest, but don't remember at the moment what they were. Anyway, worth the update if only for the VO stability improvements.

If you listen to the keynote apps for the Apple Watch are a big topic and there will be thousands in April when the watch is released and yes, people have to use the Apple Watch app on the iPhone to look for and get apps for the Apple Watch. Also, settings including accessibility settings are done via the Apple Watch app. Whether you shell out $349 (the minimum for the smaller of the Apple Sport Watch) is of course up to you and a decision based on whether you need an Apple Watch. I think for many the need factor is more a want and it's cool factor. Apple of course makes it sound like people definitely would want an Apple Watch which of course is normal. If you want a nice band for the watch that will cost you another $50 minimum and I think you can easily spend $100 or $150 for the fancier bands and the stainless steel watch, the one they call actually Apple Watch will set you back a minimum fo $550 for the smaller version (38mm) and $599 for the larger (42mm) version and it goes to $1,050 and $1,100 respectively. You could of course sell your motorhome and get the Gold version which starts at ten thousand *smile*. Anyhow, Jonathan already said that he will buy one via his business since it is his business to be informed and write about it so if you subscribe to his Twitter feed or check his website you'll be able to read some good articles about how the accessibility is implemented and how it really works a little while after April 24.

This model also has TTS to tell you the level of the battery charge and whether the earphones are connected to your phone when you turn them on. I use this headset for the same thing you do when walking and listening to blind square and it works well for me. I hope this helps. Oh, and one more point, there is a newer model (the hbs800) but the reviews seemed to indicate that the sound quality was superior with the 730, so that is the model I went with.

I have a pair or wired buds but one of the buds fell off so using it and its great noise canceling feature is now down to just one ear. I am curious if anyone has a pair of wireless ear buds either in the ear or over the ear which has the noise canceling feature so you can hear VoiceOver well when in a crowded place and you can choose to either use one of the ear buds or two. For example when I walk and listening to Blind Square I like to have one ear plugged in and when I cross the street I just pull it out. Anyone have anything like this?

iYomube OCR app
Does anyone have experience with this app? I heard about it on the blind bargains podcast. It is made by a company from Japan and it looks like they are just now making it available to the United States. There are no reviews on their app store page. It sounds like it does something similar to talking goggles but hopefully it does a better job for a price of $30. It can also take still pictures like the KN FB reader.

If you listen to the keynote apps for the Apple Watch are a big topic and there will be thousands in April when the watch is released and yes, people have to use the Apple Watch app on the iPhone to look for and get apps for the Apple Watch. Also, settings including accessibility settings are done via the Apple Watch app. Whether you shell out $349 (the minimum for the smaller of the Apple Sport Watch) is of course up to you and a decision based on whether you need an Apple Watch. I think for many the need factor is more a want and it's cool factor. Apple of course makes it sound like people definitely would want an Apple Watch which of course is normal. If you want a nice band for the watch that will cost you another $50 minimum and I think you can easily spend $100 or $150 for the fancier bands and the stainless steel watch, the one they call actually Apple Watch will set you back a minimum fo $550 for the smaller version (38mm) and $599 for the larger (42mm) version and it goes to $1,050 and $1,100 respectively. You could of course sell your motorhome and get the Gold version which starts at ten thousand *smile*. Anyhow, Jonathan already said that he will buy one via his business since it is his business to be informed and write about it so if you subscribe to his Twitter feed or check his website you'll be able to read some good articles about how the accessibility is implemented and how it really works a little while after April 24.

Re: When Tomorrow Does Registrations For iOS Beta Program Start?
From various sites I've googled up, it's only available to members of the Apple Seed program. I'm not sure if it is even possible to get invited, but I think public is a misnomer, if what I read is correct about joining to get 8.3. I think Apple basically has to notice you some other way, or the program is closed to new invites, and then if they pick you, you get to get the beta.

RE: [Bulk] [Bulk] RE: iOs 8.2
Hi Shawn, I think it’s more of a limitation set by Apple. If I remember correctly a larger iOS update won’t download on cellular data.

RE: Will Apple Watch be accessible with voiceover?
Numerous postings online have indicated that the watch will have VO and some level of accessibility. To what degree it will be accessible...well, that's going to be one of those things we'll just have to wait and see. There's what can be considered accessible by meating the bare minimums and what will in practice be truly accessible in the real world or what we as Voiceover users would consider to be reasonably accessible. I’m more interested in the actual time telling aspect of the watch. If there's going to be at all any means of telling the time in a tactile way or if one will only be able to check the time by having it spoken outloud. There has been no hint that something like tactile feedback for time telling will be included. Only buzzing for heart rate and notifications and so on. This for me at least would be a deal breaker. Talking watches especially in a professional or work setting get old and annoying real quick. They can become intrusive and tacky and the last thing I want is for someone to know that I'm checking the time every few minutes to see when their god awful presentation or conversation will be over or mine for that matter. Who knows, maybe not with this innitial model, but maybe down the road someone will come up with a touch watch face and call it privacy or spy mode.

RE: [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Re: iTunes shows CDs with songs in reverse order
Hey Anna- There is no header that says 'Track # which is what we looked for first, but then decided to try and click left of the single checkmark- which added a second checkmark and put everything back in reverse order- 21 at the top going down the list to 1. Then I asked my husband to click on that new left checkmark and voila- the tracks suddenly appear in order from 1 to 21- amazing!!! Apparently the order can only be fixed with the mouse if it gets out of whack. I worked with apple accessibility on this today, and we could not resolve- so will be thrilled to tell the tech about the lack of accessibility with the keyboard and how to fix it with a sighted helper and mouse when she calls back tomorrow.

i think that any way you do your transcription and are productive that it is ethically fine. I was told by Houston Lighthouse that i needed to be using a qwerty keyboard. Why would I do that when i type 60 wpm on a qwerty and 200 wpm on a braille keyboard. That's simply good math. I will obviously get better line counts the faster I can type without errors.

RE: iOs 8.2
Hi Allen, Jonathan has confirmed that the Apple watch does have full Voiceover support and if you Google this you can find some information about it. If you listen to the keynote apps for the Apple Watch are a big topic and there will be thousands in April when the watch is released and yes, people have to use the Apple Watch app on the iPhone to look for and get apps for the Apple Watch. Also, settings including accessibility settings are done via the Apple Watch app. Whether you shell out $349 (the minimum for the smaller of the Apple Sport Watch) is of course up to you and a decision based on whether you need an Apple Watch. I think for many the need factor is more a want and it's cool factor. Apple of course makes it sound like people definitely would want an Apple Watch which of course is normal. If you want a nice band for the watch that will cost you another $50 minimum and I think you can easily spend $100 or $150 for the fancier bands and the stainless steel watch, the one they call actually Apple Watch will set you back a minimum fo $550 for the smaller version (38mm) and $599 for the larger (42mm) version and it goes to $1,050 and $1,100 respectively. You could of course sell your motorhome and get the Gold version which starts at ten thousand *smile*. Anyhow, Jonathan already said that he will buy one via his business since it is his business to be informed and write about it so if you subscribe to his Twitter feed or check his website you'll be able to read some good articles about how the accessibility is implemented and how it really works a little while after April 24. My guess is that it will work quite well, but I'm sure we will find out.

Yes, it’s a very nice app and so far, accessibility improvements have been added in some of their updates. One thing that is missing is the ability to access your shared mailboxes.

When doing the update earlier, I hit the learn more button and read the full list of changes. Though this is not VO related, I was very pleased to see that some calendar bugs have been fixed, such as the GMT bug which has been present since iOS 8.0 initial release. I'm sure you can do a search on the web to read more about that annoying bug. I recall seeing a few other bug fixes and enhancements that peeked my interest, but don't remember at the moment what they were. Anyway, worth the update if only for the VO stability improvements.

RE: iOs 8.2
Alan, you raise a good point. I don’t want to belabor it, but back in the day, computer software, even when accessible, had many many bumps in the road. We have grown accustom to having everything work right out of the box. There are two sides to this. Why shouldn’t it. It works for other people, although if you read about some of the latest Apple iOS releases, it effected people who see just as much as people who are blind. And thus, the other side of the coin. Not everything works perfectly for every person. If you consider the number of apps native to the iPhone and those by third parties, it is quite amazing that as many of work as do. I know, there are people who say that all things should work all the time and right out of the box. But I will tell you, as someone who has developed iPhone apps, you test it as best you can by a number of people and as soon as you give it to that one last person, they will find something that doesn’t work. As Alan said, it is complicated and there are many things that can be tried, and if you took the time to try everything you can do on the iPhone, for example, in every imaginable situation, it would take you and all your friends a very long time and you may not find them all. So, while sometimes I may complain about things not working, I also understand the many steps developers go through to try as best they can to make things work.

Re: Bluetooth Ear Bud/Headphones Inquiry
Yes, in fact that is one of the things I love about this headset. The earbuds attach to the band by thin wires so if they come out of your ears they won't go far.

Re: iOs 8.2
does anyone know how weather proof this watch is? as it could be very handy when I go out riding if it is reasonably weather proof, rather than having to try to juggle the reins and the iPhone. Simon - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2015 4:28 PM Subject: RE: iOs 8.2 Hi Allen, Jonathan has confirmed that the Apple watch does have full Voiceover support and if you Google this you can find some information about it. If you listen to the keynote apps for the Apple Watch are a big topic and there will be thousands in April when the watch is released and yes, people have to use the Apple Watch app on the iPhone to look for and get apps for the Apple Watch. Also, settings including accessibility settings are done via the Apple Watch app. Whether you shell out $349 (the minimum for the smaller of the Apple Sport Watch) is of course up to you and a decision based on whether you need an Apple Watch. I think for many the need factor is more a want and it's cool factor. Apple of course makes it sound like people definitely would want an Apple Watch which of course is normal. If you want a nice band for the watch that will cost you another $50 minimum and I think you can easily spend $100 or $150 for the fancier bands and the stainless steel watch, the one they call actually Apple Watch will set you back a minimum fo $550 for the smaller version (38mm) and $599 for the larger (42mm) version and it goes to $1,050 and $1,100 respectively. You could of course sell your motorhome and get the Gold version which starts at ten thousand *smile*. Anyhow, Jonathan already said that he will buy one via his business since it is his business to be informed and write about it so if you subscribe to his Twitter feed or check his website you'll be able to read some good articles about how the accessibility is implemented and how it really works a little while after April 24.

If you listen to the keynote apps for the Apple Watch are a big topic and there will be thousands in April when the watch is released and yes, people have to use the Apple Watch app on the iPhone to look for and get apps for the Apple Watch. Also, settings including accessibility settings are done via the Apple Watch app. Whether you shell out $349 (the minimum for the smaller of the Apple Sport Watch) is of course up to you and a decision based on whether you need an Apple Watch. I think for many the need factor is more a want and it's cool factor. Apple of course makes it sound like people definitely would want an Apple Watch which of course is normal. If you want a nice band for the watch that will cost you another $50 minimum and I think you can easily spend $100 or $150 for the fancier bands and the stainless steel watch, the one they call actually Apple Watch will set you back a minimum fo $550 for the smaller version (38mm) and $599 for the larger (42mm) version and it goes to $1,050 and $1,100 respectively. You could of course sell your motorhome and get the Gold version which starts at ten thousand *smile*. Anyhow, Jonathan already said that he will buy one via his business since it is his business to be informed and write about it so if you subscribe to his Twitter feed or check his website you'll be able to read some good articles about how the accessibility is implemented and how it really works a little while after April 24.

Hi Allan. Actually, part of your statement about installing a software update through cellular data isn't true. Not all carriers let you do that. For example, and maybe someone from Canada that uses the carrier Telus can confirm this, they only let you download up to 100 MB on the phone. If the software update or whatever you're downloading exceeds this limit, there will be a message saying that you need to connect to Wifi in order for the download to work.

Re: Bluetooth Ear Bud/Headphones Inquiry
I have these too, and Kimber is right. These are awesome, and you tend to forget sometimes you have them in. You can use one ear and depending on what I’m doing, I tend to use one ear while I’m on the phone or doing something that I need to listen for. But, their highs and lows are nice, and nothing distorts but yet they’re light weight and easy to use. I can get almost a ten hour battery life out of them if I play my cards right.

LG Hbs-730 Tone+ Bluetooth Headset was RE: Bluetooth Ear Bud/Headphones Inquiry
Kimber and Tim, I've been considering a bluetooth headset for a while but have not yet taken the plunge. I have a couple of additional questions about the LG Hbs-730 Tone+ and I hope I'm not being redundant from prior posts: 1. How does the sound quality really compare with the Apple earpods when listening to a decent-quality music track? I've heard that bluetooth just can't touch wired earpods but am curious how you think music sounds with these. 2. Does this unit have a remote button that will let you do things such as rewind and fast forward when listening to audiobooks with BARD Mobile or Voice Dream or when playing music tracks? Does it have volume buttons? 3. Is this headset a2dp compatible? I think I'm calling that the right thing. My understanding is that this compatibility means that it works with VoiceOver and can handle all the phone functions. Thanks for your comments.

Apple's $10,000 question: How to stop Apple Watch from becoming obsolete
Hello Everyone, I enjoyed the presentation yesterday where Apple showcased the new Apple Watch, again. I was planning on purchasing the watch when it is released in April, 2015 but, after reading the following cNET article, I may wait for the second generation. I just don't know. Anyway, enjoy the article at the bottom of which you may find its direct URL. Until Next Time, Mark Apple's $10,000 question: How to stop Apple Watch from becoming obsolete Apple enters the high-end watch market with the 18-karat gold Apple Watch Edition. But CEO Tim Cook stays mum about how to keep the smartwatch relevant a year or two down the line. by Shara Tibken @sharatibken March 10, 2015 5:00 AM PDT Apple CEO Tim Cook reveals the 18-karat gold Apple Watch Edition will range from $10,000 to $17,000. Tim Stevens/CNET Apple expects some iPhone owners to shell out more than $10,000 for a smartwatch. And it hopes they don't care if it becomes outdated in a year. The Cupertino, Calif., electronics giant on Monday revealed pricing for the three models of Apple Watch, which will be available April 24 in nine countries. The device starts at $349 for the basic Apple Watch Sport version and goes up to $17,000 for the premium Apple Watch Edition. That huge price gap comes from the use of the materials in the watches -- 18-karat gold for the high-end Edition versus aluminum for the Sport -- but not for any of the actual features. iPhone owners won't be able to do any more with the expensive gold number than with the entry-level model -- beyond showing off their ability to afford a wearable device that costs more than some cars. By pricing its smartwatch that high, Apple, one of the world's largest makers of smartphones and tablets, is setting itself up as a luxury watch seller. But the transition could be tricky. The computing world is moving faster than ever before, as technology executives like to tell us, and what's new one day may easily be outdated a few months later. Spending $10,000 to $17,000 on a golden gadget that could become obsolete in a year is a risky proposition, especially since we don't yet know if Apple will have a trade-in program, how it will support older devices in the future and whether any of the components in the device are replaceable. Although the watch's features are exceptional, almost all activities can be done with an iPhone, rendering the watch a completely discretionary gadget, highly dependable on disposable income, price and recent expenditures, noted Sarah Kahn, an IBISWorld technology analyst. Apple declined to comment for this report beyond the comments made Monday by CEO Tim Cook. Apple Watch is the most advanced timepiece ever created, he said during a press event in San Francisco. It's a revolutionary new way to connect with others and a comprehensive health and fitness companion. History has shown that buying the first generation of a new Apple product often isn't the smartest move. Apple tends to update its products in short order -- usually within a year and sometimes even earlier. And it incorporates new features in each update that make the prior model less attractive. Consider the bigger screens and Apple Pay mobile payments in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, introduced in September 2014, the TouchID fingerprint sensor for the iPhone 5S the year earlier, and the Siri digital voice assistant for 2011's iPhone 4S. And then there's Apple's fluidity with pricing. When Apple started selling the first iPhone in June 2007, it offered an 8GB version for $599 and a 4GB model for $499. But in September of that year, it discontinued the 4GB model and slashed the price of the 8GB model by $200. After early iPhone buyers complained, they got a $100 gift card to use at Apple retail or online stores. But they still paid a cost for being an early iPhone adopter. It was the second-generation iPhone, the 3G, that really attracted consumers in high numbers. Apple sold more units of the iPhone 3G in the first quarter it was on the market (6.9 million) than it sold of the first-generation device in its first five quarters combined (6.1 million), Apple reported in April 2009. That's partly because it had more wireless carriers on board, partly because the second generation was just a better device and partly because the app store, then one year old, offered iPhone customers thousands of apps that extended the functionality of the phone. When you're spending more than $10,000 for a watch, you expect it to last. Typically, high-end watches that retail at the levels of Apple Watch Edition are worn for years. Some become heirlooms, passed down from generation to generation. Old iPhones may be treasured, but more often than not, they become a hunk of metal and glass you store in a drawer when you buy the new model. Junking a $200 phone or a $300 to $500 smartwatch is one thing. A $10,000 piece of gold is an entirely different matter (though the cash-for-gold stores may be pleased).

Wordpress.com mystery
Hello, all: For the past hour or so, I have been attempting to get onto wordpress.com. I cannot load the main site, my blog, or any other blogs I read on the site. I have even tried searching through Google. The URL’s come up, but nothing on the site will load. I checked with a few people who say they are having no trouble. This is happening on both my iPhone using the wordpress app and Safari, and on my MacBook Air. I am having no trouble reaching any other web sites. Any thoughts/suggestions? TIA. Christine P.S. I have rebooted both the computer and phone, have cleared my history and signed out, then back into, the app, to no avail. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: [Bulk] Re: iTunes shows CDs with songs in reverse order
Hi Cher, I’m terribly sorry about the bad advice. I thought about it some more and realized that the column you need to click is the track number. Have your husband click that, and I think everything will be sorted properly.

I had my husband click on 'Name' with the mouse and instead of reversing the order, it scrambled the tracks. I had him hit it again to undo, but it just scrambled more. I had read your advice on the internet but have never found anything on a keyboard accessible way to change track order.

Just above that should be a Name button you can click to reverse the order.

Re: [Bulk] RE: iOs 8.2
It happened to me for a second time when I was installing this latest update, at the very end. I have gotten the impression, more so this time than last when I was basically in a panic wondering how to fix it, that the phone has enough information in it already to complete the update, that it really doesn't need iTunes any more anyway. I just waited, maybe 30 seconds, and my phone came back on, wanting to be unlocked. It was still disconcerting, but not the panic, when it happened this time, I don't know why it happens, I wish it didn't. If it happens next time, I will calmly sit there and wait to see if my phone comes back on, on its own, as it did today.
