Re: Calling 9 1 1 with SIRI

[Gmail]

Hey, that's awesome! I'm glad you can now do this, as I tend to be a panicer in 
bad situations, and that's when I would most want a phone with a physical 
keypad. This way, though, I don't have to worry about being clumsy; ones 
perception of time always stretches in high-stress situations like that. I also 
agree with you about the delay being a good feature.


Thanks,
Ari

Calling 9 1 1 with SIRI

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hello,

 

A year or two ago there was a discussion about how to best call 9 1 1 in a
true emergency situation. Many on the list expressed concern that their
dialing skills are maybe not so good and they were afraid that in a real
emergency and under a lot of stress they may not be able to quickly bring up
the emergency call screen from the lock screen and dial 9 1 1. At the time
various apps were discussed as literally dozens of them exist to help with
this. Some are very basic and others offer more features like dialing other
emergency contacts or making it easy to send one's GPS coordinates to the 9
1 1 operator.

When this discussion took place, it was not possible to call 9 1 1 by
telling SIRI to "Call 9 1 1". SIRI would inform you at that point that she
couldn't do that. Recently I heard a Podcast where a situation was mentioned
where a young guy got pinned under his car when he was doing repairs and his
jack collapsed. Apparently he had his iPhone in his pocket and was somehow
able to activate SIRI and shout "Call 9 1 1". My first thought was that this
is nonsense since it doesn't work. Then I thought that maybe things changed
so I simply tried it. I told SIRI to "Call 9 1 1" and surprise surprise,
SIRI replied "Calling emergency services in 5 seconds". Of course at that
point I quickly hung up since I didn't really want to call, but it is good
to know that one can now use SIRI in case of emergency to reach a 9 1 1
operator. I think the 5 second delay is a good way to prevent accidental
calls and it allows one to try it out. Just make sure you have a reliable
way to hang up before the call goes through, probably best with the Earpods
where you can simply press the hang up button on the headset remote.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Tunein radio questions

[Donald L. Roberts]

I just downloaded the latest version of Tunein radio to my wife's iPhone 
4S.  This is the basic one with the in app purchase options. At any 
rate, I had much difficulty and never did get the app to work 
correctly.  Is it my lack of expertise, or are there major accessibility 
issues with this app?

reading books with the fopydo stand

Hi.  Has anybody had any luck using the Fopydo stand to read books?  I
understand the instructions when they say to place the short side of a
document against the back of the stand meaning the top of an in8-1/2 by in11
document.  Can the stand handle a book or we to wait for the hoped-for book
attachment?

Re: Difference Between Using a HotSpot or a Jetpack

[Alex Hall]

One uses your phone to simulate a Jetpack, one *is* a Jetpack. Functionally, 
they both do the same thing, the only difference is one is on your phone and 
the other is a separate, dedicated device. If you use your phone, yes, it takes 
data; if you use a Jetpack, it does not. However, most cell plans nowadays give 
you a set amount of data to be shared between all your lines, of which your 
Jetpack is one. Thus, you can think of all data used by any device on your plan 
as counting toward your limit. Of course, this varies from provider to provider 
and plan to plan, so check with your particular provider to see how things work 
in your situation. The trend, though, is toward shared data among all lines on 
a plan.

Re: Flipboard

[Nancy Badger]

I use flipboard, and it appears to be quite accessible. Sometimes I have to 
hunt around the screen to find out where the content is coming from. It's on 
there, sometimes I just have a hard time finding it. Other than that, I have 
signed up for two way too much stuff and I have way too much material to read!

The Fidelity app is very accessible. However, you may need to have an account 
in order to trade.

Re: IPod touch sixth generation battery life

[Richard Turner]

the next time I run it way down and fully charge it, I'll try to keep beter 
track.
In fact, maybe I will do what I did when I got my 5th gen a few years ago. I'll 
set it to shuffle and lock it and let it run and see what happens.
I have almost 4 days worth of music, so that won't be a problem.

RE: crashed iphone?

[Paul Roberts]

I had to do this, soon after I got my Iphone 5s.
 
One afternoon, I noticed I was getting no sound and when I checked with a 
neighbor, they too couldn't see anything and so when I called the Apple Store 
in Liverpool, they advised me to hold down, both the home and on-off buttons 
together, for around 20 seconds 
 
 
Whilst this didn't work ,I plugged my Iphone in, via the cable and plug which 
came with it and after around 10 minutes or so, it started working again.
 
In more recent months, I have had a similar thing happen, whereby Voiceover 
just stopps talking altogether but then it will sometimes come back on of it's 
own acord.
 
All very strange indeed and rather irritating.
 
Regards 
 
Paul.

Hi Jeremy,

I would also try plugging the phone using the supplied adapter into a wall 
outlet as opposed to the computer. It is possible that the computer is in 
generating sufficient power to get the battery back up to where it needs to be 
before it will let the iPhone power back on.

At the end of my work day, I took the phone off the charger, and realized it

I have tried to turn the phone back on, and no luck. Now that I am home, have

I have an Iphone 6+.
Any help would be appreciated.
Especially sense I use my phone as an alarm to wake me up in the morning for

Thanks, richard. 20 hours or so of playback with the screen locked is kind of 
disappointing, especially considering you have a new device with a new battery. 
it can only be down from here. I will be curious if others on the list have

Hello,

So, I was listening to my music on my iphone all day.

I got the battery is running low message and for the next 3/4 hours I put it
on the charger.

I heard the last song play, and thought that I went through my song list for
the day. I thought no problem, and sense my work day was about over, didn't
restart it.

At the end of my work day, I took the phone off the charger, and realized it
was off.

I have tried to turn the phone back on, and no luck. Now that I am home,
have it charging again from my computer like I have done with the phone
sense I got it and it still hasn't come back on.

I have an Iphone 6+.

Any help would be appreciated.

Especially sense I use my phone as an alarm to wake me up in the morning for
work heh.

I kind of need it badly lol.

IPod touch sixth generation battery life

[Mary Otten]

For those of you who have purchased the newest iPod touch, I am curious how is 
the battery life? I have an iPad mini, which I like quite a bit, but I know 
that the touch has a little bit better chip in it. I also have an iPhone 5 S, 
which I'm really satisfied with, but I noticed that I'm not getting the battery 
life out of it that I used to, not surprising given how much I use it. So I'm 
thinking about upgrading my phone and turning the 5S into more or less an iPod 
touch. My old for S is about done. I'm curious about the new touches battery 
life, however, because it would be far cheaper to get one of those and then it 
would be to purchase a new phone. All of this is just in the thinking stage. I 
have read articles about the battery life compared to the iPad mini, but of 
course, that is with the video fully engaged. And I don't plan to do that with 
a new touch. So, any comments would be appreciated.
Mary

RE: using knfb reader version 2 with the Fopydo stand

[Richard Turner]

I don’t know, I’ve not tried magazines.  I suppose it will depend on how large 
the magazine is.  You can raise the height of the Fopydo to 14 inches above the 
document and still have it be stable.  That is just what he has marked so you 
can be sure the platform is level.  You could possibly get it even higher, but 
it might become too top heavy.

Yes, it works great!

I did about 40 pages of a book just to test out the document stand feature and 
while I had to make a couple tries to get it going, once I did it in the order 
suggested in the user guide, it worked perfectly.

Good luck

Hi Jeremy,

I would also try plugging the phone using the supplied adapter into a wall 
outlet as opposed to the computer. It is possible that the computer is in 
generating sufficient power to get the battery back up to where it needs to be 
before it will let the iPhone power back on.

I heard the last song play, and thought that I went through my song

At the end of my work day, I took the phone off the charger, and

I have tried to turn the phone back on, and no luck. Now that I am

I have an Iphone 6+.

Any help would be appreciated.
