I too like the internal microphone. It’s only mono, but it picks up a lot of 
sound and is very clear.

Thanks very much for the replies.

I'll take a close look at the iq6 or iq7.

Someone mention that you have some samples recording, can you please share the 
link again?

The Rode IXQ L mike is around $120USD, and is pretty similar with the iq5 in 
specs. 

 

As far as for basic recording, honestly, i think the iphone mike and the 
earpod's mike is good enough for everyday basic use. If not, you can look 
around $50USD mark for things like the Tascam, Olympus, etc etc. But again, 
those entry level mike are generally good for voice and speech recording, not 
some "field recording".

Although, i have been using the internal mike for field recording, and live 
performance. Of course, the quality is not great, but it is not overly horible  
either.

Wow. I really don't know about recording anything, and don't really need to 
cover a wide area, like a hall or anything. I'm not doing any kind of 
professional level recording. I just want something that sounds better than the 
internal microphone on the iPhone. Which mic do you think would be a good fit, 
then? I don't necessarily want to post process or anything like that. Would the 
IQ mic be too much Mic, then? Do you think I would be better served with 
something a little simpler?

For my taste, the IQ5 is a bit too much of a pinched sound. The 6 is XY and the 
stereo spread is nice. The 7 is MS and if you use the HandiRec app from Zoom, 
and have a way to post process. You can control the stereo spread and even make 
it wider. I like the sound of the 7 best and it is the quietest.

Is it better to buy the IQ 5 or the IQ 6? Also, will these Mike's work with 
DropVox? I know that that app supports stereo recording, but I don't know if it 
matters what Mike you use.

 

Thanks for posting the info on your extender. I plan to get an OtterBox case 
for my future iPhone 6, so having the extender is important.

RE: battery charging backwards, confounded and need solution

Tara, when the phone is plugged in and you check the battery read out at the 
top right, does it announce a percentage followed by the word "charging"? If 
your phone is actually charging it will say so or, if it was at 100% and fully 
charged it may say "100%, on AC power". If it only says the percentage and not 
charging then something is either wrong with your cable, the AC adapter or you 
have it plugged into an outlet which doesn't have power. Of course if you have 
it plugged into a power bar with a switch maybe the switch got turned off.

Dear all.

My phone is plugged in and with the time the battery seems to be going down. In

Re: external mic for iPhone/iPad

Wow. I really don't know about recording anything, and don't really need to 
cover a wide area, like a hall or anything. I'm not doing any kind of 
professional level recording. I just want something that sounds better than the 
internal microphone on the iPhone. Which mic do you think would be a good fit, 
then? I don't necessarily want to post process or anything like that. Would the 
IQ mic be too much Mic, then? Do you think I would be better served with 
something a little simpler?


Thanks,
Ari

RE: external mic for iPhone/iPad

Joanne, They will all work with most apps. The only thing is, the MS 
microphones do not really do what they should do unless you use the Zoom App. 
The IQ6, however, records just beautifully on any recording app I own.

 

I have not had any experience with the other microphones you mention.

If you search the archives for IQ 6 or IQ 5 you will probably find them.

These microphones are about $100 and do not work with many cases on  iPhones,

RE: external mic for iPhone/iPad

Ari, it is not the microphone that decides the drop box issue, it is the 
recording app. Many of them will export to drop box.

For my taste, the IQ5 is a bit too much of a pinched sound. The 6 is XY and the 
stereo spread is nice. The 7 is MS and if you use the HandiRec app from Zoom, 
and have a way to post process. You can control the stereo spread and even make 
it wider. I like the sound of the 7 best and it is the quietest.

RE: Backing up a voice dream library

Ari,

 

I'm also using iTunes 11.4.x with an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 so I'd be
curious whether it's the iTunes or IOS versions causing the issue. My money
is on the IOS version.

Alan, I'm having the exact same problem you are. I am using iTunes 11. I
know that I'm doing the process correctly, as I did the file sharing
transfer with another app, VLC for iOS, and everything went smoothly. I
managed to transfer the library once when I was using iOS 7, and that went
perfectly! For some reason, though, things aren't working this time when I'm
running iOS 8. I tried to contact Winston, but he hasn't gotten back to me
as of yet, which is odd, because I contacted him once before, and he was
very quick at responding.

 

 

Thanks,

Ari

Thanks for the clarification. I was sort of surprised that even if I
couldn't open the SQLite database after doing a Voice Dream file library
transfer using iTunes, that nothing showed up in Windows Explorer in the
folder I selected to which to copy it. Maybe I didn't give iTunes enough
time but I wasn't even hearing any disk activity after initiating the

I've used the iTunes method before, and found it to work. It's an SQLite
database, not a collection of files, so your computer probably won't be able
to open it. VDR will back up to iCloud in the course of a normal automatic
backup, though, so you have that assurance if you use iCloud.

Mary,

I'm not sure this is possible if what you're wanting is to back up the files
residing on your iPad in the Voice Dream library to your computer. Normally,
if you want to transfer files on your iDevice to your computer, you have to
use iTunes to do this with the File Sharing section of the Apps tab.

I just connected my iPhone 6 to my computer, opened iTunes, navigated to
Voice Dream in the File Sharing section of Apps, placed focus on the Voice
Dream library which is the only thing shown in the files listed as being on
Voice Dream, selected the Save To button, and navigated to a folder called
Voice Dream on my external hard drive that I set up to hold these files.
Even though I have many items in my Voice Dream library on my iPhone,
nothing was shown in the Voice Dream folder on my computer when I completed
this process. I also find it odd that I was unable to drill down into the
Voice Dream library folder shown in the file sharing section of iTunes.

This leads me to believe that you cannot transfer content from your Voice
Dream library on your iDevice to your computer with iTunes. On the other
hand, you could make sure that whenever you transfer content into Voice
Dream using the app that you go through a cloud-based service such as
Dropbox. That way, the files are backed up to the cloud and you could also
access your Dropbox folder using your computer to copy them to another
location on your computer for backup purposes.

I'm sort of trial and erroring here so I welcome comments from others who
know a lot more about Voice Dream than I do.

RE: external mic for iPhone/iPad

Richard, I have it already. It's not a cable. It is a plastic piece with a 
female lightning connector on one end and a male lightning connecter on the 
other. You obviously plug the microphone into the female connecter and plug the 
male end into the phone. It has two pieces. The second piece is something that 
goes around the male end and in a way, shortens the male end. It actually 
doesn't shorten it, it just places an object in the path. This is in case you 
have a shorter case and don't want the microphone just hanging out there in

Re: external mic for iPhone/iPad

Is it better to buy the IQ 5 or the IQ 6? Also, will these Mike's work with 
DropVox? I know that that app supports stereo recording, but I don't know if it 
matters what Mike you use.

Thanks for posting the info on your extender. I plan to get an OtterBox case 
for my future iPhone 6, so having the extender is important.

Re: Backing up a voice dream library

Alan, I'm having the exact same problem you are. I am using iTunes 11. I know 
that I'm doing the process correctly, as I did the file sharing transfer with 
another app, VLC for iOS, and everything went smoothly. I managed to transfer 
the library once when I was using iOS 7, and that went perfectly! For some 
reason, though, things aren't working this time when I'm running iOS 8. I tried 
to contact Winston, but he hasn't gotten back to me as of yet, which is odd, 
because I contacted him once before, and he was very quick at responding.


Thanks,
Ari

I've used the iTunes method before, and found it to work. It's an SQLite
database, not a collection of files, so your computer probably won't be able
to open it. VDR will back up to iCloud in the course of a normal automatic

RE: Backing up a voice dream library

Mary,

I agree and I wish iOS gave us more control over file management but I've
learned to adapt. I believe the accessibility offered by iOS devices will
always be better than what Android offers and I place a much higher premium
on that than on file management.

Speaking of adapting, your Bookshare books are pretty much already backed up
in the cloud since you can always use either your iDevice or your computer
to re-download your titles directly from Bookshare. So as long as you know
what the Bookshare titles are either through a separate list you keep or
through the Bookshare website where you can view your history under the My
Bookshare link, you can always re-download them.

Finally, you could download your Bookshare titles using your computer and
place them in its Dropbox folder where they could be accessed by an app such
as Voice Dream Reader. I know this isn't a very convenient workaround if you
prefer as I do to grab Bookshare titles directly using Voice Dream Reader.
But you would have your Bookshare titles backed up in the cloud from the get
go.

If Apple ever gives us more file control with our iOS devices, I'll be one
of the first to take advantage of it. But I have to say that I'm not holding
my breath.

Good luck with coming up with a solution that works for you.

Alan Lemly

Hi Alan, my problem is that much of my library is from book share. So it
didn't originate with dropbox. So I'm not sure about how you would move
things to and from dropbox and keep the integrity of the books. I do have a
few things that did not come from book share. But most things did. I would
be interested in comments. It doesn't have to be to the computer. What I
wish is that I could back up to some sort of cloud service. It would be even
better of course, if Apple would let us just plug in a thumb drive and back
up the whole business to the thumb drive. That is one of the only good
things about android that I like over iOS. Smile.

Re: Requesting feedback on iGrill by iDevices

2015-04-21 Thread John Diakogeorgiou

Ron two things, The reason I purchased the IGrill II is because I use
it in my smoker and often cook more than one piece of meat at a time.
Also, chicken only needs to be cooked to 155f to meet safety standards
at least in the United States.

Re: Backing up a voice dream library

You can check to be sure, if you like. Open Settings, then go to iCloud, then 
tap Storage, then Manage Storage. Here you'll see a list of all the iOS devices 
 whose backups you have stored; tap the one you want, probably the one for your 
current device. Once that loads, tap the Show All Apps button, then be sure 
Voice Dream (no, it won't say Voice Dream Reader) is in the list and switched 
on. This will also tell you how many megabytes VDR is taking up, indicating 
roughly how much is in the library being backed up.

Okay, thanks Alex. I did not realize that voice dream would automatically back 
up to iCloud along with things like mail, photos, etc. I do have back up 
enabled, and VoiceStream doesn't show as a separate app, but then neither do 
many other apps. So, I guess I will just suppose that it is properly backing up.

http://www.amazon.com/Lightning-Accessories-Functionality-dockStubz-CableJive/dp/B00KH08E1A/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?ie=UTF8&keywords=dockStubz%20for%20Lightning%20by%20C&qid=1426976354&ref_=mp_s_a_1_fkmr1_1&sr=8-1-fkmr1

It will likely rap because it is a long link, so you may have to cut and paste 
if it doesn't work.

Thanks, Richard. There is also the IQ7 which is, like the IQ5, an MS 
microphone. Same price.

I have ordered an extender which actually now makes the microphone work with 
likely all the cases out there although I have not proved that. I don't have 
that information at my fingertips, but I will try to locate it.

Neal Ewers has sent several messages about the IQ 5 and 6 microphones and has 
done some audio samples.
If you search the archives for IQ 6 or IQ 5 you will probably find them.
These microphones are about $100 and do not work with many cases on  iPhones, 
but going by the samples Neal has provided, they are great microphones.

Re: Backing up a voice dream library

I've used the iTunes method before, and found it to work. It's an SQLite 
database, not a collection of files, so your computer probably won't be able to 
open it. VDR will back up to iCloud in the course of a normal automatic backup, 
though, so you have that assurance if you use iCloud.

Re: Using Tweetings Lite on an iPhone 6

Tweeting has its share of bugs, and the developers don't seem to understand 
when I try to explain over Twitter. I've asked for an email address, but 
haven't gotten a response. I know some people that use this app quite happily, 
so I have to be missing something.

Twitterrific actually does do the gap filling. There was an update a few months 
ago that made this feature accessible, so you'll now find a Load More button 
right in your timeline, just like Tweetlist.

Re: Backing up a voice dream library

Again though, VDR data is included in iCloud backups (assuming, of course, 
you've left the app enabled in your backup settings). This way, your library is 
always as new as your latest backup, and there's no question of which library 
version is where or which copy is the newer one.

external mic for iPhone/iPad

2015-04-21 Thread Joanne Chua

Hi all,

I'm in need of doing some field recording for an audio project that i'm involve 
in.
However, i'm hoping i can uterlise my iphone6+ as much as i can for this 
project.
Just wondering, have anyone come across any external mic and the pro audio 
recordin apps that might work?
I'm trying out the Rode Rec Le app, it is accessible with the main home screen, 
however, when you press 'add button', it freezes the phone with voiceover turn 
on. It can work just fine without vo though.
Any other idea?

Joanne

2015-04-21 Thread Peter Logan

I agree that the accessories like charging cables are over priced from Apple 
.. but I'm willing to pay the extra to insure that I got a quality cable. 
Not saying that the ones from Amazon are bad .. just be careful that in 
saving a few bukcs you mess up your phone ...

first of all, check if it is the charging cable, that is causing you the

and i wouldn't buy a charging cable from the apple store, as they are over
priced, and you can get as good or even better cables from elsewhere, such
as amazon, and you will have more choice, and you can get varying lengths.

just make sure, that you look at the customer reviews, and what ratings they
get.

If i can help you any more, i will be happy too.

But i won't be able to get back to you until tomorrow, as it is late here in

Take care,

Dear all.

My phone is plugged in and with the time the battery seems to be going
down. In half hour it went down from 87 % to 82 %. Couple hours before
it was at hundred percent. And during this time there was no heavy
usage of the phone. The phone was plugged in and charging. The battery
should have stayed at 100 %. Any suggestion as to what could be going

Re: Backing up a voice dream library

2015-04-21 Thread Mary Otten

Hi Alan, my problem is that much of my library is from book share. So it didn't 
originate with dropbox. So I'm not sure about how you would move things to and 
from dropbox and keep the integrity of the books. I do have a few things that 
did not come from book share. But most things did. I would be interested in 
comments. It doesn't have to be to the computer. What I wish is that I could 
back up to some sort of cloud service. It would be even better of course, if 
Apple would let us just plug in a thumb drive and back up the whole business to 
the thumb drive. That is one of the only good things about android that I like 
over iOS. Smile.

RE: battery charging backwards, confounded and need solution

Although I didn't experience the battery charging backwards problem, I did
start getting flaky results when charging my iPhone 5 both when it was
connected to my computer and to an AC wall outlet. I took it to the Apple
Store and they cleaned out the lightning connector plug on the iPhone using
a soft brush like a soft toothbrush. I don't know if they also used
compressed air or not because they took it in a back room to clean out the
connector. They said it contained a lot of lint and I never had another
problem after they cleaned it.

RE: Backing up a voice dream library

Mary,

I'm not sure this is possible if what you're wanting is to back up the files
residing on your iPad in the Voice Dream library to your computer. Normally,
if you want to transfer files on your iDevice to your computer, you have to
use iTunes to do this with the File Sharing section of the Apps tab.

I just connected my iPhone 6 to my computer, opened iTunes, navigated to
Voice Dream in the File Sharing section of Apps, placed focus on the Voice
Dream library which is the only thing shown in the files listed as being on
Voice Dream, selected the Save To button, and navigated to a folder called
Voice Dream on my external hard drive that I set up to hold these files.
Even though I have many items in my Voice Dream library on my iPhone,
nothing was shown in the Voice Dream folder on my computer when I completed
this process. I also find it odd that I was unable to drill down into the
Voice Dream library folder shown in the file sharing section of iTunes.

This leads me to believe that you cannot transfer content from your Voice
Dream library on your iDevice to your computer with iTunes. On the other
hand, you could make sure that whenever you transfer content into Voice
Dream using the app that you go through a cloud-based service such as
Dropbox. That way, the files are backed up to the cloud and you could also
access your Dropbox folder using your computer to copy them to another
location on your computer for backup purposes.

I'm sort of trial and erroring here so I welcome comments from others who
know a lot more about Voice Dream than I do.

Hi, My son had a similar problem. He took a toothpick and cleaned out the 
charging port, the part on the phone where the cable plugs into. It held a nice 
batch of pocket lint. Now the phone charges fast. No promises, but an easy one 
to check.

Backing up a voice dream library

2015-04-21 Thread Mary Otten

I would like to know if there is a way to back up my voice dream library 
without using iTunes. If this is possible, how? If this is not possible, how 
can I back up the library using iTunes on my Mac to just back up the library 
and nothing else? My iPad, where the library resides, has never been backed up 
to iTunes. And I don't want it to be.

RE: Requesting feedback on iGrill by iDevices

2015-04-21 Thread Ron Pelletier

Hi Richard,

Be carefull with the poultry preset.  I didn't think my chicken was cooked 
enough at 165º. I checked with my doctor who told me poultry should be cooked 
at 180º to make sure all bacteria is gone.  I created a preset of my own for 
poultry and it is much better without being overdone.  After this happened, I 
remembered that I had a meat chart somewhere.  When I found it, it said 180º 
for chicken or turkey.

I just received an iGrill2 yesterday and used it for the first time last night. 
I used it in my oven and it worked well. I set the type of food I was cooking 
and it did indeed give me an alarm when the temperature was ten degrees away 
from the target and then again when the food was done. It will be very useful 
for chicken; in my effort to get it thoroughly cooked I often overcook it. This 
seems to solve the problem for me. One other feature I think I will take 
advantage of is to purchase a third thermometer probe that I can use for 
ambient temperature. For me, that will be later, but could be useful in 
controlling smoker temperature.

I found the registration screen to be less than accessible and I don't think I 
was able to get the app and device fully registered.

Hi John,

I have used my iGrill mini in my oven several times and also on my George 
Forman grill.  It works very well. It now will give you an alarm 10º before the 
set cooking temperature so it gives you time to do other things before it 
reaches set temperature.

I love it

By the way, the only difference between the iGrill mini and the iGrill 2 is 
that the iGrill 2 has two probes.  Its quite a bit more money and not really 
necessary unless you want to cook 2 items at the same time.  I know some people 
like to cook a chicken and a roast pork together but I usually cook only one 
item at once.

My phone is plugged in and with the time the battery seems to be going
down. In half hour it went down from 87 % to 82 %. Couple hours before
it was at hundred percent. And during this time there was no heavy
usage of the phone. The phone was plugged in and charging. The battery
should have stayed at 100 %. Any suggestion as to what could be going

Simon,

Especially on eBay Caveat emptor applies in a triple measure. In case you 
are not familiar with the expression, it is Latin and translated means “Let the 
buyer beware”. It is now up to you and try to get the phone unlocked, worst 
case scenario will be that you have a phone locked to a carrier which is of no 
use to you. If the phone is a CDMA phone it can be even worse, here is a quote 
from an article I found when I did a Google search for “What to know when 
buying a used iPhone” regarding iPhones which have been report lost or stolen:

If you’re on a CDMA network like Verizon or Spring make sure the iPhone 
you’re buying doesn’t have a bad Electronic Serial Number (ESN).
ESN’s go bad when a device is reported lost or stolen, and a carrier won’t 
activate devices with bad ESN’s on their network.

I read a news article on CBC recently about this, basically carriers have 
some sort of blacklist and the numbers of stolen or phones which have been 
reported lost are put on this list and if you end up buying one (maybe from the 
thief) then you can’t activate this phone at all and apparently carriers at 
least here in Canada do share this information.

Anyhow, I hope things work out for you, but if this was officially an 
off-contract phone the seller should have unlocked it before selling it and you 
as a buyer should not have bought it unless you were planning to always use it 
with the same carrier. There are, by the way, a lot of good articles when you 
google “What to know when buying a used iPhone”. Apple even gives people a way 
to check what is called the activation lock. Here is a good article which 
explains this:

  Hi Simon, that shouldn't matter whether you're buying it from eBay, or 
any other carrier. The carrier that is locked to is responsible for unlocking 
the device for you. So you might want to consider talking to the person that 
you're buying for and see if they will unlock it as these are individuals.

  Simon,

  Especially on eBay Caveat emptor applies in a triple measure. In case you 
are not familiar with the expression, it is Latin and translated means “Let the 
buyer beware”. It is now up to you and try to get the phone unlocked, worst 
case scenario will be that you have a phone locked to a carrier which is of no 
use to you. If the phone is a CDMA phone it can be even worse, here is a quote 
from an article I found when I did a Google search for “What to know when 
buying a used iPhone” regarding iPhones which have been report lost or stolen:

  If you’re on a CDMA network like Verizon or Spring make sure the iPhone 
you’re buying doesn’t have a bad Electronic Serial Number (ESN).
  ESN’s go bad when a device is reported lost or stolen, and a carrier 
won’t activate devices with bad ESN’s on their network.

  I read a news article on CBC recently about this, basically carriers have 
some sort of blacklist and the numbers of stolen or phones which have been 
reported lost are put on this list and if you end up buying one (maybe from the 
thief) then you can’t activate this phone at all and apparently carriers at 
least here in Canada do share this information.

  Anyhow, I hope things work out for you, but if this was officially an 
off-contract phone the seller should have unlocked it before selling it and you 
as a buyer should not have bought it unless you were planning to always use it 
with the same carrier. There are, by the way, a lot of good articles when you 
google “What to know when buying a used iPhone”. Apple even gives people a way 
to check what is called the activation lock. Here is a good article which 
explains this:

Hi Simon, that shouldn't matter whether you're buying it from eBay, or 
any other carrier. The carrier that is locked to is responsible for unlocking 
the device for you. So you might want to consider talking to the person that 
you're buying for and see if they will unlock it as these are individuals.

Hi,

   I just managed to register with Blind Mice Mart, which was a long job, 
so many sites, although they purport to deal with hundreds of countries, the 
address field is US centric and one has to faff around with Zip codes and 
State abreviations etc. Anyway, now it is done and I took a look at the 
Movie Vault. I only found about 10 films there, is that all there is or am I 
missing something? plus, my real interest would be to listen to films/TV 
episodes in Italian, is there any chance of this?

The legality issue is probably a bit murky. The files are audio only, so

I just received an iGrill2 yesterday and used it for the first time last 
night. I used it in my oven and it worked well. I set the type of food I was 
cooking and it did indeed give me an alarm when the temperature was ten 
degrees away from the target and then again when the food was done. It will 
be very useful for chicken; in my effort to get it thoroughly cooked I often 
overcook it. This seems to solve the problem for me. One other feature I 
think I will take advantage of is to purchase a third thermometer probe that 
I can use for ambient temperature. For me, that will be later, but could be 
useful in controlling smoker temperature.

I found the registration screen to be less than accessible and I don't think 
I was able to get the app and device fully registered.

Hi John,

I have used my iGrill mini in my oven several times and also on my George 
Forman grill.  It works very well. It now will give you an alarm 10º before 
the set cooking temperature so it gives you time to do other things before 
it reaches set temperature.

I love it

By the way, the only difference between the iGrill mini and the iGrill 2 is 
that the iGrill 2 has two probes.  Its quite a bit more money and not really 
necessary unless you want to cook 2 items at the same time.  I know some 
people like to cook a chicken and a roast pork together but I usually cook 
only one item at once.

Hello everyone.
I am trying to install some ring phones onto my iPhone.
However, I must be doing something wrong. I selected the files, and it says how 
many are selected. But it won't let me sync the ring tones onto the iPhone. How 
do I go about doing this? What can I be doing wrong? When I go to sink, is is 
that sink is unavailable. But it makes the sink sound. So I am rather confused.
Shouldn't the ring tones be under the ring tone and alerts section? Or is this 
wrong? Any help with this situation would be much appreciated. I'm getting 
frustrated.
Thank you so much!

RE: Requesting feedback on iGrill by iDevices

2015-04-21 Thread Ron Pelletier

Hi,

The probe is a thermometer so, I guess you can put it in the oven and it will 
give you the temperature of the oven but that won't tell you what the setting 
is.  If your oven is set to 450º and you want 350º, the probe will tell you 
when it gets to 350º but it will keep going up so that is not much help.  I 
have another device that is much better for that.  It’s the infrared 
thermometer for the blind.  Its an instant-read thermometer.  Just open the 
oven door and point the thermometer inside the oven and press the button.  I 
start at a lower setting and raise it checking regularly.  It is available from 
Brooks Technology and I beliebe its brookstechnology.com

RE: Requesting feedback on iGrill by iDevices

2015-04-21 Thread Ron Pelletier

Hi John,

I have used my iGrill mini in my oven several times and also on my George 
Forman grill.  It works very well. It now will give you an alarm 10º before the 
set cooking temperature so it gives you time to do other things before it 
reaches set temperature.

I love it

By the way, the only difference between the iGrill mini and the iGrill 2 is 
that the iGrill 2 has two probes.  Its quite a bit more money and not really 
necessary unless you want to cook 2 items at the same time.  I know some people 
like to cook a chicken and a roast pork together but I usually cook only one 
item at once.

You will get the prompt to update whether you "need" this update or not. 
Note the message below deals with downloading the installer directly and not 
the update to iTunes itself. If you get the popup to update iTunes then go for 
it. I did it, and it wasn't an issue. I do have a 64-bit system, but I have no

Re: getting iPhone unlocked?

Hi,

If the ESN is blocked or the phone is faulty in any way you can just
start a dispute in the resolution center and eBay will force the
seller to refund you including both sets of postage. Don't start a
dispute just because it's locked to Vodafone though; if you can't get
it unlocked and loos out it's your fault for buying it before
researching if unlocking would be possible or not. So long as there is
nothing wrong with the phone that hasn't been mentioned in the
description I don't feel the seller has been dishonest.

Cheers,
Ben.

RE: getting iPhone unlocked?

2015-04-21 Thread SSEric

My son got stuck with a phone with a bad ESn just before they started the
Activation Lock. Fortunately for him, he traded a gun for the phone and had
taken down the guy's ID information. The local police were able to encourage
the guy to cancel the trade.

Simon,

 

Especially on eBay Caveat emptor applies in a triple measure. In case you
are not familiar with the expression, it is Latin and translated means "Let
the buyer beware". It is now up to you and try to get the phone unlocked,
worst case scenario will be that you have a phone locked to a carrier which
is of no use to you. If the phone is a CDMA phone it can be even worse, here
is a quote from an article I found when I did a Google search for "What to
know when buying a used iPhone" regarding iPhones which have been report
lost or stolen:

 

If you're on a CDMA network like Verizon or Spring make sure the iPhone
you're buying doesn't have a bad Electronic Serial Number (ESN).

ESN's go bad when a device is reported lost or stolen, and a carrier won't
activate devices with bad ESN's on their network.

 

I read a news article on CBC recently about this, basically carriers have
some sort of blacklist and the numbers of stolen or phones which have been
reported lost are put on this list and if you end up buying one (maybe from
the thief) then you can't activate this phone at all and apparently carriers
at least here in Canada do share this information.

 

Anyhow, I hope things work out for you, but if this was officially an
off-contract phone the seller should have unlocked it before selling it and
you as a buyer should not have bought it unless you were planning to always
use it with the same carrier. There are, by the way, a lot of good articles
when you google "What to know when buying a used iPhone". Apple even gives
people a way to check what is called the activation lock. Here is a good
article which explains this:

Hi Simon, that shouldn't matter whether you're buying it from eBay, or any
other carrier. The carrier that is locked to is responsible for unlocking
the device for you. So you might want to consider talking to the person that
you're buying for and see if they will unlock it as these are individuals.

Re: Using Tweetings Lite on an iPhone 6

2015-04-21 Thread Wayne Merritt

What issues and unlabeled buttons have you found in Tweetings? Please
describe the situations when you have come across them. I feel the
same way about TweetList as you. If anything, I am looking for that
potential replacement for when TweetList no longer works. I have
looked at Twitterrific, but I like how TweetList handles things, such
as the "fetch missing tweets" option when you need to fill in gaps in
a timeline.

RE: Using Tweetings Lite on an iPhone 6

As much as I try to dump it, I always end up going back to TweetList4. It seems 
to have been abandoned, but it works so well, the fact that it's no longer 
being updated I find to be no big deal. 
I gave Tweetings a try, but it's still a bit rough around the edges as far as 
Voiceover. Unlabeled buttons, inaccessible actions, etc. I'd be willing to give 
it another shot if some things get cleaned up. 
Twitter's one main issue and that I find to be a big time annoyance is that 
every time you load more tweets, you have to go hunting for your previous spot. 
Twitteriffic is good, but there are some funky things about it that I just 
can't get used to.
I'm going to use TweetList4 until the wheels fall off which who knows, may be

Subject: Netflix audio descriptions with Apple TV second generation

Hello,

I asked this a couple of times by replying to one of the threads about Netflix 
audio descriptions, but never received a reply. I am in Canada and have a 
second generation Apple TV. I found this Dare Devils show and did also sign out 
of Netflix on my Apple TV and then signed back in, but no matter what I do I 
get absolutely no options come up when I press and hold the large round button 
on the top of my Apple TV remote. I also listened to David’s Podcast on 
Applevis, but my Apple TV surely behaves differently. I don’t even see this 
option for descriptive audio in the Settings which some people have referred to 
and hence assume you require a third generation Apple TV to have this. I did go 
to software updates and checked to see if there were updates, but my Apple TV 
tells me it is up to date. I just wanted to ask again if one needs a third 
generation Apple TV for this or if people on here have been able to do this 
with a second Generation device. I am of course not buying a third Gen Apple TV 
now even though Apple has dropped the price knowing that it is extremely likely 
that a new Apple TV will be released this year and most likely will be 
announced on zJune 8 during the Apple WWDC.

Sieghard

TellMeWhen App Not Telling Me Anything

I listened to the 3/9/15 podcast by AnonyMouse on the TellMeWhen app and
thought I'd give it a try since my understanding was that it would notify
you when watched authors released new books. Here's a link to the AppleVis
podcast:

 

http://www.applevis.com/podcast/episodes/tellmewhen-ios-keep-track-new-books
-music-and-movies-people-you

 

I downloaded the app to my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 and went into the
authors section and added about 5 or 6 of my favorites. One of these is Greg
Iles who released The Bone Tree today. However, I didn't get any
notification from TellMeWhen that Iles had a new book released today which I
thought was the purpose of the app. I do have its notifications set because
I checked these in settings.

 

I'm curious if anyone else is using this app and if so, what has been your
experience with it? If it has notified you of new releases, what's the trick
to getting it to do this?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Alan Lemly

Re: Netflix audio descriptions with Apple TV second generation

2015-04-21 Thread Teresa Cochran

I can't remember where I read this, but it was on one of the tekkie sites, like 
LifeHacker or Gizmodo. Apple is having registration issues with Apple Tv and 
Netflix regarding audio description. I don't have this device, and I don't know 
more than that, so perhapss a bit of online research will turn up something.

Hi,

It worked for a while but now it does not seem to be working for some
reason. I watched the first six episodes of Daredevil with Audio description
on the third generation apple TV but then the option mysteriously
mysteriously disappeared. I have tried everything to get it back including
restarting and signing in and out of Netflix multiple times but the option
will not come back. People have denied that audio Description was ever on

I just do not know where it is now.

Mich,

The checkbox to enable encrypted backup is in your phone area, i.e. when 
your phone is connected to iTunes you go to your iPhone, then tab a lot 
(stay in the Summary tab which is what is selected by default) and 
eventually you get to some buttons about check for update, restore and after 
that there will be information about backups and you will find the "Encrypt 
backup" checkbox here. Check it with the spacebar, enter whichever password 
you want to use, tab once, reenter the password, then tab to OK and press 
enter or the spacebar. This will set the password and start the backup, just 
let it do it's thing, Jaws will most likely read out the percentage of 
completion from time to time and when the backup is complete iTunes will 
make it's usual triple tone. From now on you can select the Backup option 
under "File" and "Devices", you only have to check the encrypt backup box 
once and enter your password that first time. Just make sure you don't 
forget it because if you encrypt your backup you can backup your phone for 
years and never think about it, then if you ever have to do a restore it 
will ask you for the password and as we all know from at least a couple of 
people on this list that happened to them and they suddenly realized that 
they no longer remembered the password to unlock the backup. If that happens 
you are up sh... creek in a wire canoe without a paddle.

It would help to know what operating system and screen reader you're using.

On Windows 7 with NVDA I can just tab over to the encrypted backup once
I've tapped the space bar on the iPhone button.

Hello,

 

I asked this a couple of times by replying to one of the threads about Netflix 
audio descriptions, but never received a reply. I am in Canada and have a 
second generation Apple TV. I found this Dare Devils show and did also sign out 
of Netflix on my Apple TV and then signed back in, but no matter what I do I 
get absolutely no options come up when I press and hold the large round button 
on the top of my Apple TV remote. I also listened to David’s Podcast on 
Applevis, but my Apple TV surely behaves differently. I don’t even see this 
option for descriptive audio in the Settings which some people have referred to 
and hence assume you require a third generation Apple TV to have this. I did go 
to software updates and checked to see if there were updates, but my Apple TV 
tells me it is up to date. I just wanted to ask again if one needs a third 
generation Apple TV for this or if people on here have been able to do this 
with a second Generation device. I am of course not buying a third Gen Apple TV 
now even though Apple has dropped the price knowing that it is extremely likely 
that a new Apple TV will be released this year and most likely will be 
announced on zJune 8 during the Apple WWDC.

Re: getting iPhone unlocked?

2015-04-21 Thread Alexander Masic/Bitter-k

Locked devices is something wich should be forbiden in my opinion.
because often when you buy this, you sign a contract for 12/24 munth. so
isen't it enough to do that? you are not able to escape from them anyway.

Kliph skrev den 15-04-21 15:34:

I used a company called cellunlock.net
They charged me 100 bucks to unlock my 6Plus. But a friend of mine
unlocked his 5s, and it only cost him 40 bucks. Was done with in 2
business days. Pretty easy to do too. YOu just put in the carriers
simm card you want to use, and plug it in to iTunes, and it is
unlocked. This is after you receive the email that it has been
successfully unlocked. iPhones are unlocked remotely, so you don’t
have to worry about putting in a unlock code. HTH

Simon,
Especially on eBay Caveat emptor applies in a triple measure. In case
you are not familiar with the expression, it is Latin and translated
means “Let the buyer beware”. It is now up to you and try to get the
phone unlocked, worst case scenario will be that you have a phone
locked to a carrier which is of no use to you. If the phone is a CDMA
phone it can be even worse, here is a quote from an article I found
when I did a Google search for “What to know when buying a used
iPhone” regarding iPhones which have been report lost or stolen:
If you’re on a CDMA network like Verizon or Spring make sure the
iPhone you’re buying doesn’t have a bad Electronic Serial Number (ESN).
ESN’s go bad when a device is reported lost or stolen, and a carrier
won’t activate devices with bad ESN’s on their network.
I read a news article on CBC recently about this, basically carriers
have some sort of blacklist and the numbers of stolen or phones which
have been reported lost are put on this list and if you end up buying
one (maybe from the thief) then you can’t activate this phone at all
and apparently carriers at least here in Canada do share this
information.
Anyhow, I hope things work out for you, but if this was officially an
off-contract phone the seller should have unlocked it before selling
it and you as a buyer should not have bought it unless you were
planning to always use it with the same carrier. There are, by the
way, a lot of good articles when you google “What to know when buying
a used iPhone”. Apple even gives people a way to check what is called
the activation lock. Here is a good article which explains this:

Hi Simon, that shouldn't matter whether you're buying it from eBay,
or any other carrier. The carrier that is locked to is responsible
for unlocking the device for you. So you might want to consider
talking to the person that you're buying for and see if they will
unlock it as these are individuals.

previous network to unlock it for me, like I have done once before,

Re: transfering ring tones

2015-04-21 Thread Eileen

Hello,

Maybe you can answer this question about adding ringtones with iTunes 12.1.2. I 
go through all the steps in the current version and interact with the scroll 
area where the buttons are found to either sync all or selected ringtones. 
There is also a table listing the ringtones. I make sure all are checked. I 
stop interacting with the table and the scroll area and find the apply button 
and activate it. I hear the charm that I think the ringtones have ALL sync to 
the phone. This is the problem. When I go into a contact to select a ringtone, 
2 out of the 3 are listed at the top. I have been able to reproduce this by 
repeating the process and then the ringtone that was dimmed is now present, but 
one of the other ones is dimmed. So, what's the deal on this one? I created 2 
of 3 ringtones in Amadeus Pro, with a extension of m4r. I'm using an iPhone6 
with 8.3. I hope someone can solve this mystery.

Thanks in advance. 

Cheers,
Eileen

Re: Bluetooth Keyboards again--Questions

2015-04-21 Thread David Justice


I'm writing this message using a Logitech K810 Bluetooth keyboard.  The device 
I'm using is an iPod Touch running iOS 7.x.  The Touch is in another room 
plugged in and charging.  It is about 20 feet away from where I am sitting.  
I'm also wearing a Bluetooth headset so that I can hear VoiceOver.  I can not 
detect any lag between what I am typing on the keyboard and what I am hearing 
through the headset.  

As others have said, normally you do not have to pair the keyboard again just 
because you've turned it off and then back on.  

I do not carry a Bluetooth keyboard around with me, but if I am near one I am 
more likely to use it to access the iPod Touch than I am to use the touch 
screen. This does not mean I have anything against using the touch screen, it 
simply means I use whatever is most effective at the moment.  

I do not have the latest hardware, and rarely use my iPod running iOS 8.3, so 
can not say from personal experience whether the latest iPhones running the 
latest iOs have any problems with Bluetooth in general, or Bluetooth keyboards 
in particular.

his 5s, and it only cost him 40 bucks.  Was done with in 2 business days.  
Pretty easy to do too.  YOu just put in the carriers simm card you want to use, 
and plug it in to iTunes, and it is unlocked.  This is after you receive the 
email that it has been successfully unlocked.  iPhones are unlocked remotely, 
so you don’t have to worry about putting in a unlock code.  HTH

Re: looking for an accessible and free health app?

2015-04-21 Thread Cheryl Lenartiene

This definitely shouldn't be a problem with Fertility Friend. Their service is 
internet based, and account based, so it would just be a question of switching 
accounts. You can even log on their website when you are at the computer.

I'm not sure whether you can track multiple people through iPeriod though. Your 
data is stored on the phone, and your account is used for data backup (maybe 
also for posting to forums, but I don't do that). What you could do is install 
both the free and paid version of iPeriod. I believe that each app stores data 
separately, unless you choose to import the data from the free version into the 
paid version. I remember having to manually import my data, but it's been a 
while since I upgraded.

RE: Netflix audio descriptions with Apple TV second generation

2015-04-21 Thread Tom Rash

I have a third generation Apple TV and the description doesn't come up on
mine either.  I did sign out and sign back in to my Nedflicks account.  I
think the description feature will not work on Apple TV until possibly the
new Apple TV comes out.

Subject: Netflix audio descriptions with Apple TV second generation

Hello,

I asked this a couple of times by replying to one of the threads about
Netflix audio descriptions, but never received a reply. I am in Canada and
have a second generation Apple TV. I found this Dare Devils show and did
also sign out of Netflix on my Apple TV and then signed back in, but no
matter what I do I get absolutely no options come up when I press and hold
the large round button on the top of my Apple TV remote. I also listened to
David's Podcast on Applevis, but my Apple TV surely behaves differently. I
don't even see this option for descriptive audio in the Settings which some
people have referred to and hence assume you require a third generation
Apple TV to have this. I did go to software updates and checked to see if
there were updates, but my Apple TV tells me it is up to date. I just wanted
to ask again if one needs a third generation Apple TV for this or if people
on here have been able to do this with a second Generation device. I am of
course not buying a third Gen Apple TV now even though Apple has dropped the
price knowing that it is extremely likely that a new Apple TV will be
released this year and most likely will be announced on zJune 8 during the
Apple WWDC.

Sieghard

RE: transfering ring tones

No, you can't get a ringtone onto your iPhone that way just as you can't email 
a song to yourself and add it to your music library on your iPhone. You have to 
use iTunes or apparently this iTools software, but I haven't tried that yet 
since I find the process with iTunes is easy and straight forward. I sometimes 
do think I have to fix things which aren't broke, but so far I haven't had that 
urge yet when it comes to iTunes.

Re: Blind Mice Mart

2015-04-21 Thread Sandratomkins

Hi,

I just managed to register with Blind Mice Mart, which was a long job, so 
many sites, although they purport to deal with hundreds of countries, the 
address field is US centric and one has to faff around with Zip codes and State 
abreviations etc. Anyway, now it is done and I took a look at the Movie Vault. 
I only found about 10 films there, is that all there is or am I missing 
something? plus, my real interest would be to listen to films/TV episodes in 
Italian, is there any chance of this?

Probably, shooting for the moon here...

All info most welcome,

Sandy.

RE: getting iPhone unlocked?

Simon,

 

Especially on eBay Caveat emptor applies in a triple measure. In case you are 
not familiar with the expression, it is Latin and translated means “Let the 
buyer beware”. It is now up to you and try to get the phone unlocked, worst 
case scenario will be that you have a phone locked to a carrier which is of no 
use to you. If the phone is a CDMA phone it can be even worse, here is a quote 
from an article I found when I did a Google search for “What to know when 
buying a used iPhone” regarding iPhones which have been report lost or stolen:

 

If you’re on a CDMA network like Verizon or Spring make sure the iPhone you’re 
buying doesn’t have a bad Electronic Serial Number (ESN).

ESN’s go bad when a device is reported lost or stolen, and a carrier won’t 
activate devices with bad ESN’s on their network.

 

I read a news article on CBC recently about this, basically carriers have some 
sort of blacklist and the numbers of stolen or phones which have been reported 
lost are put on this list and if you end up buying one (maybe from the thief) 
then you can’t activate this phone at all and apparently carriers at least here 
in Canada do share this information.

 

Anyhow, I hope things work out for you, but if this was officially an 
off-contract phone the seller should have unlocked it before selling it and you 
as a buyer should not have bought it unless you were planning to always use it 
with the same carrier. There are, by the way, a lot of good articles when you 
google “What to know when buying a used iPhone”. Apple even gives people a way 
to check what is called the activation lock. Here is a good article which 
explains this:

 

http://www.techrepublic.com/article/before-buying-a-used-iphone-or-ipad-check-activation-lock

Hi Simon, that shouldn't matter whether you're buying it from eBay, or any 
other carrier. The carrier that is locked to is responsible for unlocking the 
device for you. So you might want to consider talking to the person that you're 
buying for and see if they will unlock it as these are individuals.

unlock it for me, like I have done once before, as it is one I am buying from
