Re: Sirius XM app

2015-05-24 Thread Steve
On my iPhone, with the new version of the XM app, you can't flick left and 
right for the categories.  They are in a vertical row on the center of the 
screen--I have to doouble-tap one.  If not all the categories are showing, do a 
three-finger flick-up for the next page.

Subject: Sirius XM app


So I finally thought I was really getting used to the new SiriusXM app with 
VoiceOver. However, within the past few days, when I tap channels, and try to 
flick left and right through the categories, VoiceOver loses focus. Also, if I 
click the button next to a channel, to ad it to favorites, the app crashes. Any 
thoughts or workarounds? Thanks.

Disabling Unread Messages Badge Count in Gmail App

2015-05-24 Thread Craig Werner
Hello, everyone.

When I hear the Gmail App announced while flicking through my resident apps
on my iPhone 5 running iOS 8.3, the number of unread messages in my Inbox
is spoken even though I have Background App Refresh turned off in the
General section of my iPhone settings. How can I disable the notification
of unread messages!

Thank you.

Craig

Re: Disabling Unread Messages Badge Count in Gmail App

2015-05-24 Thread Alex Hall
Oh, okay. You can have the badge on or off, again in Notification Settings. 
Even though it has a badge, it may not be refreshing in the background, which 
seems to be the heart of your question (why would it be refreshing if you don't 
want it to?) When you open the app, it refreshes. If you close it with 3 
messages left unread, it will know it has 3 unread messages. If it updates that 
badge later even though you haven't opened it, that's another matter, and I'd 
go to the app itself and see if there are settings in there. Apps should honor 
the iOS settings, but maybe this one isn't doing so for some reason?

 Alex, I failed to put the question clearly.  Here's Take 2.
 
 Under Settings, Notifications, the Gmail app is listed in the do not 
 include section.  Background refresh for all apps is toggled off under 
 Settings, General, background Refresh.  Given this scenario, why does the 
 Gmail app tell me the number of unread messages in my Inbox when I flick to 
 its name on one of the pages of my home screen in preparation for opening it? 
  For example, if there are 3 unread messages, VoiceOver will say Gmail 3.

 you can control the notification style, lock screen visibility, badge, and

Hello!

Are some iPods equipped to use the cell network for Internet? An acquaintance 
of mine with multiple disabilities including coordination can't afford DSL or 
cable Internet for WIFI. I am looking into other solutions. Would an iPhone 
work better for using a cell plan for email and Internet? This person has cell 
phone service for another type of phone that is easier to use for phone calls 
and messages for her. But she can do flicks, double taps, and could learn other 
iOS gestures. She could also get on a friend's family plan for cell service and 
could afford that. I am thinking that an older model cell phone (5C or 5S) 
might be the most affordable. But an iPod might work as a solution if the iPod 
can use the cell network.

Thanks for your thoughts.

It isn't as fast, but it works well and I think she pays less than $30 a month.

It basically uses the cell network, but provides a wifi hotspot.

Their site is less than screen reader friendly, but might be worth looking

Re: Disabling Unread Messages Badge Count in Gmail App

2015-05-24 Thread Alex Hall
The badge is just the number on the app, a notification is different. I'm not 
sure which one you're after here, but in either case, go to Settings, 
Notifications, Gmail (or whatever the app is called),and have a look. Here, you 
can control the notification style, lock screen visibility, badge, and more.

Re: Disabling Unread Messages Badge Count in Gmail App

Alex, I failed to put the question clearly.  Here's Take 2.

Under Settings, Notifications, the Gmail app is listed in the do not
include section.  Background refresh for all apps is toggled off under
Settings, General, background Refresh.  Given this scenario, why does the
Gmail app tell me the number of unread messages in my Inbox when I flick to
its name on one of the pages of my home screen in preparation for opening
it?  For example, if there are 3 unread messages, VoiceOver will say Gmail
3.

As for the setup screen, although it is not intuitive, just single-finger, 
double-tap the display and you will be taken to the next step.

You may need to double-tap the display several times in order to get the phone

Hi.

 

I was going to listen to a hockey game on Radium.  I used this app with no
problem on my old iPhone 4.  I brought up the app on my 5C, and whenever I
attempted to tap on the skip tutorial option I was sent to my home screen.
Anyone else having this problem?  Thankfully I have another app that I can
use to listen to the NHL playoffs.

Can an iPod use Cell Network for Internet, Email, and Downloading

2015-05-24 Thread Terrie Terlau
Hello!

Are some iPods equipped to use the cell network for Internet? An acquaintance 
of mine with multiple disabilities including coordination can't afford DSL or 
cable Internet for WIFI. I am looking into other solutions. Would an iPhone 
work better for using a cell plan for email and Internet? This person has cell 
phone service for another type of phone that is easier to use for phone calls 
and messages for her. But she can do flicks, double taps, and could learn other 
iOS gestures. She could also get on a friend's family plan for cell service and 
could afford that. I am thinking that an older model cell phone (5C or 5S) 
might be the most affordable. But an iPod might work as a solution if the iPod 
can use the cell network.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sincerely,

Terrie Terlau

2015-05-24 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Fazil,

Congratulations on getting a 6 Plus.  

As for the setup screen, although it is not intuitive, just single-finger, 
double-tap the display and you will be taken to the next step.

You may need to double-tap the display several times in order to get the phone 
to recognize it.  

Do not feel badly as many users have experienced this conundrum. 

As for iTunes on your computer?  Well, are you using a Windows PC or a Mac?

Subject: Difficulty In Setting up IPhone6Plus

Hi, list.
I am trying to setup a brand new IPhone 6 Plus but am having problem with it. 
When I tried to restore from the backup, ITune told me that I could not do that 
because the software is too old. Then ITune updated IOS from 8.1 to a higher 
version. Then the phone started and is sitting on the opening screen. I can not 
go past Information button. The prompt is in a bunch of languages. It also says 
Slide To Set up but I can neither click the Information button nor slide to 
setup because Voiceover is not accepting commands/gestures.
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: Can an iPod use Cell Network for Internet, Email, and Downloading

2015-05-24 Thread Andy Baracco
no! That is the difference between the iPhone and the iPod. The iPod Touch is 
WIFI capable though, so it can do Email and internet when connected to a WIFI 
network, or a WIFI hot spot when away from home.

Subject: Can an iPod use Cell Network for Internet, Email, and Downloading
Hello!

Are some iPods equipped to use the cell network for Internet? An acquaintance 
of mine with multiple disabilities including coordination can't afford DSL or 
cable Internet for WIFI. I am looking into other solutions. Would an iPhone 
work better for using a cell plan for email and Internet? This person has cell 
phone service for another type of phone that is easier to use for phone calls 
and messages for her. But she can do flicks, double taps, and could learn other 
iOS gestures. She could also get on a friend's family plan for cell service and 
could afford that. I am thinking that an older model cell phone (5C or 5S) 
might be the most affordable. But an iPod might work as a solution if the iPod 
can use the cell network.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sincerely,

Re: Disabling Unread Messages Badge Count in Gmail App

 Under Settings, Notifications, the Gmail app is listed in the do not

 Gmail app tell me the number of unread messages in my Inbox when I flick to

  For example, if there are 3 unread messages, VoiceOver will say Gmail 3.

honeywell thermostat question

Hi, all. Has anyone had experience with the new Honeywell thermostat.  We
just had one installed. It has voice recognition which isn't working well at
the moment.  It works with wifi and does have an app for the IPhone.
However, I haven't been able to find how to create a log in.  Basically, I'm
just wondering if anyone has had any experience negative or positive with
this one.  Thanks.  Sorry I'm being so vague, but I don't know enough to
know what I need to know.  The installer is coming back out this week to
help us figure it out.  

God bless!

Defender By Otterbox For IPhone 6-Plus?

Hi, list.

I got my Iphone6 Plus this afternoon along with Defender Case by Otterbox.

I noticed that the thick plastic on the screen is not flushed with the

Is anyone else is experiencing this too?
