VoiceOver saying Actions Available

[richardturner42]

Someone asked me today why VoiceOver says "actions available" at the end of a 
text message they just read. Hints are off.
They either just noticed it, or it just started.
Any thoughts?

RE: Help with iTunes

[Cher Bosch]

And when I called, the tech made it clear that since I'm using windows and a 
3rd party software (JFW), it is up to FS to keep up with all the things Apple 
breaks with each new release! Very irritating!

Hi, yep, I'd be very happy! I haven't written on this recently but, to be 
honest, I am seriously taking a look elsewhere because I'm sick of the constant 
change in the app and the things that are difficult to visualise, slow to move 
to and change every time there's a new version, not to mention those things 
that just don't work after a new version comes out. It's not good enough in my 
book and certainly spoils what I still consider to be the very best device out 
there so far as accessability is concerned.


I am wondering if Apple's policy is that everyone who can't manage iTunes, or 
doesn't want to bother with it, doesn't have to as they can use the Cloud and 
download all the music from - well, guess where! 


No, we already have lots of music and want to use it ...


Yes, we still have a Windows PC and the learning curve with a Mac was too great 
for me so I gave it up ...


You're welcome to pass this on!

Re: How /Do I Close a Folder with Files in It?

I’m currently using the Dropbox app to view them because I haven’t decided how 
many of them I want to keep on my iPad Mini. I’d certainly like to keep some of 
them though, and I’ll probably need to know how to do the same thing in the 
Music app as well I would expect when I transfer more of them over.

RE: Apple Watch

[Merv Keck]

I got my 38 mm sport for $250 $U S back in February or March. I thought that 
was a fair deal for a new Apple Watch so I decided to not wait until September. 
So far I have been pretty happy with everything except battery life. Even with 
a lot of things turned off I end up charging my watch twice a day. Probably 
because I live in Florida and get quite a few Weather alerts for multiple 
locations in a 12 hour period. 

If I was looking to buy one now I might wait until September unless the price 
was really good. I love answering the phone on my watch if I get caught in the 
middle of something and can’t get to my phone.

Hi Elayne,

 

I believe there are a number of Podcasts both on Applevis and Cool Blind Tech. 
Remember that there is a good chance Apple is going to release a new, second 
generation Apple Watch this fall. This could happen as early as the first or 
second sweek of September when they usually have their iPhone event and since 
that is less than 2 months away I’d seriously consider waiting. Even if you 
decide you would still like to get the original Apple Watch you can probably 
get some good bargains. If a new watch is coming some large retailers like Best 
Buy may start discounting the original watch even in August in anticipation of 
the new model and also as part of Back to School promotions. Of course this is 
only a guess, but if you waited this long you could wait another 6 or 8 weeks? 
Apparently Watch OS which also has a beta version out now is much improved and 
I wouldn’t be surprised if new hardware this fall will add even more features 
and improvements. I have so far resisted getting an Apple Watch and I am 
definitely waiting to see what Apple may have coming up since I am not at all 
planning to upgrade my 6S Plus already this year. It’s fun to have the latest 
and greatest, but also with the iPhone I don’t expect anything earth shattering 
this fall according to what rumours are out there, but there are already 
rumours that the 2017 iPhones which are the 10th anniversary iPhones will get a 
major overhaul which may include wireless charging, a new form factor and much 
more.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hello everyone.
 
This afternoon we listened to a few podcasts on the Apple Watch. They were 
amazing and showed us just some of what the watch can do. So guess what? Hannah 
and I have invested in a 42 mm Apple Watch Sport, in gold, and it will come 
with a nylon band in gold/royal blue. But we had a thought after dinner. Due to 
limited dexterity, we might snap the buckle on the straps. So we have invested 
in an alternative band made out of leather and it has a magnetic closure. These 
will all be coming Friday along with a new hot water dispenser.
 
Happy timekeeping!

Re: Voicedream writer: how to import files from dropbox

[Chris Chaffin]

Is the file you are trying to open from Dropbox a plain text file?
Currently, this is the only type of file you can import.

After double tapping the file you want, it should automatically close the 
dropbox windows and put the file in the edit field within the Writer app.

Hope this helps,

Chris

the podcast by Alex Hall on AppleVis is free.

Are you reading with VoiceOver, or with Writer using the proof reading option?
If VoiceOver, I'm not sure.
The best way, I've found, is to use the spell check feature in Writer.
Maybe others have tried other methods that could help.
Good luck,

Re: Apple Watch

[Aleeha Dudley]

Hey Keith, 
Apple was very careful to show that all the new features in Watch OS 3 would 
work on the current watch. However, there are many sources out there that say 
that apple is coming out with a new one very soon. Especially given some of the 
new features, the watch is really going to need a RAM and memory boost to 
shine. It’s also about time for a new one, given the amount of time since the 
original was released. One of the more recent Blind Bargains podcasts mentions 
some of these details as well. I believe it’s number 66.

Remember that there is a good chance Apple is going to release a new, second

second sweek of September when they usually have their iPhone event and since 
that is less than 2 months away I’d seriously consider waiting. Even if you

only a guess, but if you waited this long you could wait another 6 or 8 weeks? 
Apparently Watch OS which also has a beta version out now is much improved and 
I wouldn’t be surprised if new hardware this fall will add even more features 
and improvements. I have so far resisted getting an Apple Watch and I am 
definitely waiting to see what Apple may have coming up since I am not at all 
planning to upgrade my 6S Plus already this year. It’s fun to have the latest

this fall according to what rumours are out there, but there are already

know how to close it. I have other folders in there and I don’t always want to

Thanks very much. I suppose it’s something obvious, but after nearly three

RE: Using GPS Apps in the UK

[Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND]

Hi Sieghard and Eleanor,

Thanks for the good suggestions.  I had forgotten that Seeing Eye had the 
one-month subscription option.  I don't own either Seeing Eye or Blind Square 
yet.

I know this is very subjective, but I am trying to get an idea of what our data 
usage might be like and how much we might need if using online maps.  We will 
probably be getting off the ship at about 14 ports, although some will be in 
Scotland and one in Whales, and I have only seen Ireland and England referenced 
here so far for use with Blind Square. I really have no clue as to how fast a 
couple hundred meg of data might get used up.  Getting a pre-paid plan in 
England might be a better way to go. If there is anyone in the U.K. who wants 
to chime in with suggestions, I would appreciate that.

Now I am going to have nightmares about Sandy's vacuum chasing us all over 
Ireland...lol!

Hi Pam,

As for free offerings I would say Apple Maps and Google Maps would be your best 
and most accessible options.
You may want to check with Sendero about getting a one-month subscription for 
the UK version of the Seeing Eye app and Blindsquare, if you already own it, 
will probably work well in England and Ireland.
As for data you should see if you can get AT&T to unlock your phones or at 
least one of them. This way you could get a prepaid plan in the UK and I'm sure 
some of the list members from England can give you some information, but you 
can get some pretty good plans in many European countries for not all that much 
money.
Lastly, when you stop in Ireland make sure Sandy's robotic vacuum hasn't 
escaped although my understanding is that has pretty good collision avoidance 
so you are probably safe *smile*.

Sieghard

Hi All,

My husband and I will be taking a cruise that stops at ports in England, 
Scotland, Whales, and Ireland.  We are both blind, and are looking for 
recommendations for good GPS apps we can use there while walking and/or taking 
taxis.

We live in the U.S. and we are also looking at the AT&T plans for data usage 
while we are overseas.  The cheapest one is for 200 meg of data.  I do not 
really have a good idea of how far this would go while using any online maps.

Any thoughts on this?

strange braille display issue

[Patti Johnson]

I am noticing suddenly my focus 40 braille display will not stay
paired with my phone.  Just in the last day or so it's gone off, I've
locked then unlocked the phone and it's come back.  I wondered if the
plug was not in well but it is.
The display is not a later one, one of the earlier focus 40s; so I
wonder if that is the problem.
Sure would hate to loose it, it's wonderful being able to use it on
the phone or ipad.
Any ideas?  I know I can unpair and pair it again, and I will if I
have to, but  just wondered if anybody else has had this problem.
Thanks,
Patti

RE: Need some help turning off this varification code thing I somehow turned on.

[Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.]

Hi,

Are you sure they're just not asking for your AppleID passcode?

After one powers off the phone and reactivates the device, entering your 
passcode is required, the touch ID is not yet active on the phone. 
After the above, the first time one goes back to the AppStore to purchase an 
app, one must enter the Apple passcode associated with your AppleID.

I'm not sure if this also applies to the circumstance you described, where 
after unlocking the phone and a passcode is asked for, that this step would 
also be necessary.

I can't tell from your message below if you are getting a second request for a 
code, or just the one.

At any rate, I hope you get this fixed. I can't believe one could mistakenly 
activate 2-step verification.

Keith

So, I did a quick Google search about what's going on with my iPhone, and the 
answers I got just left me more confused than I already was. Firstly, what's 
the difference between two-factor authentication and twostep thearification?

Here's what's going on. A few days ago, I unlocked my iPhone only to be greeted 
by a prompt to enter my Apple ID password. There was nothing on the screen to 
explain why I needed to do this, but ever since getting iOS 9 a while back, 
I've had to do this from time to time. I didn't think anything of it, because 
nothing ever seemed to happen afterward. Now, though, every time I try to 
purchase something from the app store, I'm greeted with a varification code 
prompt. The only text message-capable iDevices in our household are my iPhone 
6S and my husband's iPhone 5C. This varification code thing is a huge hastle 
for both of us. How on Earth can I get rid of it?


Thanks,
Ari

RE: Using GPS Apps in the UK

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Pam,

As for free offerings I would say Apple Maps and Google Maps would be your best 
and most accessible options.
You may want to check with Sendero about getting a one-month subscription for 
the UK version of the Seeing Eye app and Blindsquare, if you already own it, 
will probably work well in England and Ireland.
As for data you should see if you can get AT&T to unlock your phones or at 
least one of them. This way you could get a prepaid plan in the UK and I'm sure 
some of the list members from England can give you some information, but you 
can get some pretty good plans in many European countries for not all that much 
money.
Lastly, when you stop in Ireland make sure Sandy's robotic vacuum hasn't 
escaped although my understanding is that has pretty good collision avoidance 
so you are probably safe *smile*.

Regards,
Sieghard

Voicedream writer: a question about cursor routing while editing

[Kimber Gardner]

Hi All,

I've just started playing with voicedream writer on my iPad and it
seems pretty nice. I plan on checking out a podcast someone
recommended by mystic access, but in the meantime I have a question.

If I am reading over a document I just created and I notice a typo or
something else that needs correction, is there a fast and easy way to
route the cursor directly to that place?

My problem right now is that the edit cursor (for lack of a better
term) is nowhere near the reading cursor. So when I find a typo, it's
a struggle and very time consuming to get the cursor positioned so I
may make the correction.

Thanks for any pointers.

Kimber

RE: Apple Watch

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Elayne,

I believe there are a number of Podcasts both on Applevis and Cool Blind Tech. 
Remember that there is a good chance Apple is going to release a new, second 
generation Apple Watch this fall. This could happen as early as the first or 
second sweek of September when they usually have their iPhone event and since 
that is less than 2 months away I’d seriously consider waiting. Even if you 
decide you would still like to get the original Apple Watch you can probably 
get some good bargains. If a new watch is coming some large retailers like Best 
Buy may start discounting the original watch even in August in anticipation of 
the new model and also as part of Back to School promotions. Of course this is 
only a guess, but if you waited this long you could wait another 6 or 8 weeks? 
Apparently Watch OS which also has a beta version out now is much improved and 
I wouldn’t be surprised if new hardware this fall will add even more features 
and improvements. I have so far resisted getting an Apple Watch and I am 
definitely waiting to see what Apple may have coming up since I am not at all 
planning to upgrade my 6S Plus already this year. It’s fun to have the latest 
and greatest, but also with the iPhone I don’t expect anything earth shattering 
this fall according to what rumours are out there, but there are already 
rumours that the 2017 iPhones which are the 10th anniversary iPhones will get a 
major overhaul which may include wireless charging, a new form factor and much 
more.

Sieghard

Using GPS Apps in the UK

[Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND]

Hi All,

My husband and I will be taking a cruise that stops at ports in England, 
Scotland, Whales, and Ireland.  We are both blind, and are looking for 
recommendations for good GPS apps we can use there while walking and/or taking 
taxis.  

We live in the U.S. and we are also looking at the AT&T plans for data usage 
while we are overseas.  The cheapest one is for 200 meg of data.  I do not 
really have a good idea of how far this would go while using any online maps.  

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks.
Pam

RE: Link for ChirpOMatic,

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Chirpomatic let's you record a bird's song and the app then tries to identify 
it. As they say on their website, Chirpomatic is for birds what Shazam is for 
music.

Ari,

Yes! ChirpoMatic is a birdsong identifier. Having identified your bird, you 
have an option to go into Chirp to learn more about that particular bird. There 
are pictures and general info in Chirp. Chirp is the app which is a sort of 
library of all the Birds in the target area, I.E., in my case, Britain, Ireland 
and Northern West Europe. If you like, Chirp is the reference guide and 
Chirpomatic is the tool, linking actual birdsong around you to the reference 
guide. In Chirp, you can select a bird and listen to recordings of its calls. I 
think you can choose to listen to a sort of medley of songs, but not sure, mine 
is an old version

So, lets not get too "Twitchy" ove this!!

Re: Question regarding Apple TV, and channels

Hello, and thank you for the responses to my questions.

I really appreciate it. Yes, this definitely seems complicated to 
accomplish. Now, if in someway you are able to accomplish this, getting the 
code, and going to the necessary webpage, what will this do? I mean, what 
will this allow you to do? I am guessing for YouTube, it will allow you to 
sign in over Apple TV. Is this correct?

But what will it do for the other channels, such as ABC?

Thank you again,

Terri

on a note pad or word pad for when it is needed. I am pretty sure, if I 
remember correctly, you only have a limited time to get this code entered 
in on the appropriate web page. I own a 4th generation, so I am not sure 
how much time you are given on a 3rd generation, if it is even different. 
This can be rather frustrating to say the least.

Subject: Question regarding Apple TV, and channels

Hi everyone,

I have an Apple TV, 3rd generation model. I do not currently have cable. 
So I realize what I can do, is limited.

Although, I do have a Netflix, and Hulu account.

Here is my question.

I want to use YouTube on my Apple TV. But when I try to choose my YouTube, 
it says something about going to a certain YouTube page, and entering this 
code. But I do not understand how to keep the code up on the screen, and 
re-read it.

Can I do that? I am totally blind.
Once I go and enter this code, will I then be able to use my YouTube 
account on Apple?
It has said this for channels like, abc also. After I watch so many 
episodes of a show. If I do this for these other channels, then will I 
mostly have full access?


Any help will be very much appreciated. I am trying to understand this 
all.


Thank you,

Terri

Re: questions about main twitter app

I do that and even do the three finger swipe down where it plays the 
sound and says refreshing content. However it's still showing me a bunch 
of out or order stuff. Strange.

Hi all, 

I'm so sorry my punctuation is not brilliant, but I was dictating the email as 
I am a very slow typist on the phone

I just wanted to help the members of the group by sending our issues to Apple

generic one so I just thaught I would keep every one updated

I'm sorry if I have annoyed any one as that was not my intention

Re: Link for ChirpOMatic,

['Sandratomkins' via VIPhone]

Ari,

Yes! ChirpoMatic is a birdsong identifier. Having identified your bird, you 
have an option to go into Chirp to learn more about that particular bird. There 
are pictures and general info in Chirp. Chirp is the app which is a sort of 
library of all the Birds in the target area, I.E., in my case, Britain, Ireland 
and Northern West Europe. If you like, Chirp is the reference guide and 
Chirpomatic is the tool, linking actual birdsong around you to the reference 
guide. In Chirp, you can select a bird and listen to recordings of its calls. I 
think you can choose to listen to a sort of medley of songs, but not sure, mine 
is an old version

So, lets not get too "Twitchy" ove this!!

So when I launch the main twitter app, I'm not seeing the same stuff I'm 
seeing when I launch Tw-Blue on my computer. I'm seeing stuff way out of 
order and from a day or two ago. I dismiss the while you were away 
hoping to see current stuff, but I still don't. The main twitter app
