RE: Does using JAWS touch cursor with iTunes make it any better?

[M. Taylor]

Keith,

The message that you copied is one that I posted to the Jaws for Windows 
mailing list, earlier today.  

As I wrote in my original post, I find the Touch Cursor very useful with regard 
to iTunes for Windows.

HI,

This is  being copied from a message on another list. Curious to learn if it 
helps.
Not able to check at the moment, or even later today.
Thanks, Keith

Copied from another list: 

I find that with the latest version of Jaws, when it comes to the latest 
version of iTunes, the Jaws Touch Cursor works very well on my Desktop PC.

Please remember that one does not need an actual touch screen in order to use 
the Jaws Touch Cursor feature.

Re: How do I set up a sound bar?

[Monica Jones]

Unfortunately, most of the customer service people at Wal-Mart know next to 
nothing about anything they sell. I'm glad you found something at Best Buy. 
Most of the time I find them to be very knowledgeable. If you buy it from 
Wal-Mart, you'd better know exactly what you are looking for. Also, you'd 
best know what questions you need to ask, but even then, they will just look 
at you and say, uhhh. Some might look at the box or outside of the 
package and then they'll ask you what it means after they read it in the 
event that they do find something. (grin)

Hi there Sieghard,


How are you?

Thank you for explaining everything to me regarding the sound bar, my
TV, and Apple TV.


I wanted a sound bar, to receive better sound from my small tv.

However, I didn't do a lot of research on sound bars. I had an idea as
to what they were, and I knew I didn't want to have to spend a klot of
money. But that was about it. I didn't want to ask something off-topic
for the list. I really wasn't sure if this was, because I was discussing
the Apple TV as well.


Anyway, my friend and roommate who tries to help me, doesn't know much
about technology. So we couldn't figure it out. The lady at Wal-mart,
where I bought the sound bar, and where I will never purchase
electronics again, wasn't very helpful at all! So it made the situation
even more frustrating.


This past Monday, we were considering going to Best Buy, and taking the
sound bar, tv, and optical cable down there. They were willing to help
us get it set up.

However, I ended up returning the sound bar and cable back to Wal-Mart.
It turns out, I don't have an optical port on this TV. At least if I do,
I am still not aware of it. But the problem has been solved. I am no
longer frustrated, and I now know next time to do more research on
something I know barely nothing about. Lesson well learned..


I ended up purchasing a pair of speakers with sub wolfer, from Best Buy.
It cost a lot less then the sound bar, and this made me rather happy.
Plus, the man with geek squad, was quite helpful. They usually are when
I go in there. He made sure my friends and I knew how to set up the
speakers. We got home, and set them up in no time. It was terrific!


Thank you for listening to all of this, and giving me important
information. I learned a lot!

Terri,

The third gen Apple TV has only 2 types of outputs, HDMI and optical audio 
out. Most new TV's have also an optical audio out and most soundbars have 
an optical audio in. This means you connect your ?Apple TV to your TV via 
HDMI and then connect your TV to the soundbar via the optical audio cable.
This way the TV receives both video and audio via the HDMI cable which 
carries both signals and the TV then sends just audio to your soundbar.
This is sort of beyond what is on topic for the list and nobody can really 
answer your question without knowing exactly what inputs and outputs your 
TV has and what inputs are on your soundbar.
If the soundbar only has analogue inputs as in RCA style red and white 
then you have to see if your TV has this type of output and connect the 
output from the TV to the input of the soundbar.
If the soundbar has an optical audio input you could of course use the 
optical cable and connect the Apple T V directly to your soundbar totally 
bypassing the TV. This means the TV would not have to be on for you to 
listen to any of the Apple TV channels and if your TV was connected to the 
Apple TV via HDMI and you had somebody sighted around who wanted to watch 
then you just turn on the TV and mute or turn down the TV volume.

Sieghard

Subject: How do I set up a sound bar?

Hello everybody,


I have a few questions, and I am hoping someone on here might be able to 
help me.



Last week, I bought a small, 19 inch, Insignia tv, for my bedroom. It
does not have the greatest of sound. But it isn't awful either.

However, I want to contact my 3rd generation Apple tv to this tv. This
way, I can watch whatever I want when I can't sleep, and won't possibly
disturb my roommate.


I thought about just purchasing some small speakers, because I don't
need extreme sound. But for some reason, when I use the Apple tv on the
Insignia tv in the living room, I always have to turn the volume way up.
Voiceover is loud! But the programs are not. So this is why I decided to
purchase a sound bar. I don't know much about them, but have heard of
them before.


So last night, my roommate and I went to Wal-Mart. I honestly didn't
want to spend too much money, especially when I didn't kno

Re: latest itunes

[Christopher Chaltain]

I tend to agree with you myself, but others have pointed out on this 
list that the accessibility of App Store apps is the responsibility of 
the app developers. Apple publishes the accessibility specifications, so 
it's up to the app developer to follow those specifications. The same 
reasoning would apply to a developer writing an application for Windows, 
where there's also plenty of information on how to make your application 
accessible.


This is also one of the reasons why I still like the third party screen 
reader developer option. It means there's one more interested party out 
there worrying about whether I can access an application or not. How 
much of a priority can it be for a company to make their application 
accessible on a competitors platform or have their screen reader jump 
through hoops to make a competitors application accessible?


On 30/08/16 23:19, Sieghard Weitzel wrote:

Well, while it may not all be up to Freedom Scientific or VFO or
whatever they are called now, it is both the responsibility of Apple and
the screenreader makers. I sure hope that VFO is having talks with Apple
about iTunes accessibility since only they can tell Apple what Apple
needs to do so that they can do what they must do.

Apple used to point out that iTtunes worked best with Window Eyes, but I
think for a while before Windo Eyes became part of VFO Jaws was actually
working at least as good or better and now that both screenreaders are
under the same hat so to speak I really hope Apple and VFO get their
wires crossed in a way that is going to result in an improvement to
accessibility and not a reduction.

it’s their problem.

Re: Does using JAWS touch cursor with iTunes make it any better?

I've heard it does work, although I'm not positive about how much it'll 
help with iTunes, and I haven't really played with it myself. I just 
read an article from Jonathan or Mark or someone else who writes really 
helpful articles on things like this and it talked about  what a great 
feature this was in JAWS. It's on my to do list to spend more time 
playing with it.

Hi. Matt Dierckens runs a google group called Apple Beta Discussion. You can 
subscribe to it by sending a blank email to 
apple-beta-discussion+subscr...@googlegroups.com. Also the same guy has a Roger 
group version of that list. If you have Roger and you'd like to be a part of 
that group, email me privately with your handle on Roger and I'll ask him if 
it's cool that you become a member.

There is a list currently operating.
A friend of mine has been waiting over a month to be subscribed.
I've written to the owner suggesting that I could set up a list if he is too 
busy but have heard nothing and that was weeks ago.

Re: bluetooth keyboard and app switcher?

[Brett C.]

Press control, option, H, H to get to the app switcher. That’s VO H twice. You 
can open an app with VO space bar, or combination of up and down arrows with 
quick nav enabled. You can also use option up or down arrow to reveal options 
to close or open an app.

devices to backup iPad, phone and Mac

I want to understand. The hard drives such as Seagate Plus and the memory

they are not used for anything but music, movies, and other media, can I use

RE: Which gps app

[Chip Orange]

I want to add that I've been very disappointed in the quality of the maps 
included with Blind Square GPS (from Open Street Maps), and I am going to 
switch to one of these mentioned here by Mark.

I also purchased Arriadne GPS, and while I need to spend more time learning how 
to use it, it seems very good at giving you an overall feel for how an area is 
laid out, and it's price is so very good, what have you got to lose in trying 
it out?  I'm not sure that it does turn-by-turn directions, but even if not, 
it's still quite useful.

Does using JAWS touch cursor with iTunes make it any better?

HI,

This is  being copied from a message on another list. Curious to learn if it 
helps.
Not able to check at the moment, or even later today.
Thanks, Keith


Copied from another list:



I find that with the latest version of Jaws, when it comes to the latest 
version of iTunes, the Jaws Touch Cursor works very well on my Desktop PC.



Please remember that one does not need an actual touch screen in order to use 
the Jaws Touch Cursor feature.

If it is to expand the overall memory of your iDevice for apps and other

music, then you could always get those external har drives that you
could connect to through wi-fi, download the manufacturer's app and play
the content that way.

I personally have not done this but I do have a good friend of mine
that does.  While commuting on the bus, he plays movies and music from

an iPad.

Is that feasible? I’d like to expand my storage. A 1TB drive would be
just great, but 500GB would be okay.

I guess it would have been better to have mentioned when I originally posted

I’ve read that I can put it all up on the cloud, but I also read that I have to

I don’t intend to bash other list members, but I don’t think you received the 
correct information from anybody at this point. The short answer is No, you 
can’t hook up external hard drives. The slightly longer answer is that there 
are USB sticks which plug into your Lightning port and there are Wi-Fi enabled 
hard drives as well as network attached storage devices which allow you to 
access their information.

The big restriction with  any of these is that you will  need to use whichever 
app is designed too  work with the device you purchase. This means you can’t 
buy a Wi-Fi enabled hard drive, put all your music on it and then access said 
music from the music app on your device. Similarly you couldn’t buy a 64 Gb or 
128 Gb USB stick with a Lightning port, plug it into your device  and access 
the ffiles on it from just any app. You typically would have to download the 
app from the maker  of your USB stick or hard  drive and inside that app you 
ccan then see all the files on your sstorage device provided of course the app 
is accessible which is not a given.

Another option is to pay for say 1 Tb of Dropbox storage or buy an Office 365 
subscription from Microsoft which comes with 1 Tb of OneDrive storage. You can 
then have all your files in the cloud with one of these services and use their 
apps which are quite accessible to access the content. If it is mostly music 
you have there  is an app called Cloudplayer (among others) which gives you a 
pretty good set of features and it allows you to access the music in Dropbox,, 
OneDrive, Google Drive etc.

Jonathan Mosen also has a blog article on his website about significant 
accessibility improvements for the Synology Discstation. This is a company 
which makes 2-bay and 4-bay network attached storage devices. Apparently the 
interface to manage these is now much more accessible and according to Jonathan 
they also have an accessible iOS app which would give you access to all your 
music and I assume other files as well. But once again, it would be from inside 
their app and not with the stock Music app.

Apple has relaxed some of their restrictions, but they still don’t allow you to 
access the file system the same way you can in  Windows or Android.

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

  I was looking around on Amazon and I’ve found external portable hard drives 
for Macs, but they don’t mention whether I could use them with an iPad.

  Is that feasible? I’d like to expand my storage. A 1TB drive would be just 
great, but 500GB would be okay.

  Thanks.

Has anyone used the new Charge 2 or the Surge? I looked at the specs for

Aria Scale

[Lynda Ingraham]

I purchased an Aria scale several years ago. It was accurate with my weight.
However, it would not calculate my bmi correctly. There was nothing wrong
with the scale. It calculated the bmi's right on many other people. I have a
lot of metal implanted in my body. We believe that is why the scale wouldn't
work correctly. Just wanted to put that out there for others who may have
lots of metal.

Well, while it may not all be up to Freedom Scientific or VFO or whatever they 
are called now, it is both the responsibility of Apple and the screenreader 
makers. I sure hope that VFO is having talks with Apple about iTunes 
accessibility since only they can tell Apple what Apple needs to do so that 
they can do what they must do.

Apple used to point out that iTtunes worked best with Window Eyes, but I think 
for a while before Windo Eyes became part of VFO Jaws was actually working at 
least as good or better and now that both screenreaders are under the same hat 
so to speak I really hope Apple and VFO get their wires crossed in a way that 
is going to result in an improvement to accessibility and not a reduction.

As one of the mods of this list, I must take some offense with your message. I, 
as well as Matt, the other moderator, have been enduring some significant life 
changes right now and haven’t had time to add people. Publicly bashing this

but further discussion on this list about it is offensive and in poor taste.

Re: Interest in a list to discuss I device and Mac betas?

i just received a message saying I was accepted in the Apple Beta discussion 
list.
However it did not come with any information on how to write to the group. 
which usually comes immediately with Google Groups.
Very odd.
The only address is a noreply address.
If I don't get something today with useful information, I'll be interested in 
an alternative group.

RE: Can I Hook Up An External Portable Hard Drive to My iPad Mini?

[Daniel L. Gervais]

Well it does depend on what you want to do with that external hardrive. 
If it is to expand the overall memory of your iDevice for apps and other
data, then there isn't really any way of doing this.  If you want to
have the external hard drive to play media content, like movies or
music, then you could always get those external har drives that you
could connect to through wi-fi, download the manufacturer's app and play
the content that way.

I personally have not done this but I do have a good friend of mine
that does.  While commuting on the bus, he plays movies and music from
this hard drive through the manufacturer's app, but whether the app is

I don’t think you can.

Subject: Can I Hook Up An External Portable Hard Drive to My iPad
Mini?

 

I was looking around on Amazon and I’ve found external portable hard
drives for Macs, but they don’t mention whether I could use them with
an iPad.

Is that feasible? I’d like to expand my storage. A 1TB drive would be
just great, but 500GB would be okay.

Thanks.

Evan

Frustration with Trying to Cancel Newsstand Subscription on iPhone Kindle App

[Christine Grassman]

Good day, all:
I wish to unsubscribe from a magazine within my iPhone Kindle app. I tried to 
find the subscription itself on both the Kindle app and within my Amazon 
account on my iPhone. According to the information I found, I am supposed to be 
able to locate the subscription within Manage Content and Devices. I see my 
subscription title in the Kindle app, but there is no “more actions” to 
unsubscribe. On my Amazon app, I can only locate purchased books, even though I 
have “All” checked. What am I missing? Thanks. 
Christine

Re: How do I set up a sound bar?

[Terri Stimmel]

Hi there Sieghard,


How are you?

Thank you for explaining everything to me regarding the sound bar, my 
TV, and Apple TV.


I wanted a sound bar, to receive better sound from my small tv.

However, I didn't do a lot of research on sound bars. I had an idea as 
to what they were, and I knew I didn't want to have to spend a klot of 
money. But that was about it. I didn't want to ask something off-topic 
for the list. I really wasn't sure if this was, because I was discussing 
the Apple TV as well.


Anyway, my friend and roommate who tries to help me, doesn't know much 
about technology. So we couldn't figure it out. The lady at Wal-mart, 
where I bought the sound bar, and where I will never purchase 
electronics again, wasn't very helpful at all! So it made the situation 
even more frustrating.


This past Monday, we were considering going to Best Buy, and taking the 
sound bar, tv, and optical cable down there. They were willing to help 
us get it set up.

However, I ended up returning the sound bar and cable back to Wal-Mart. 
It turns out, I don't have an optical port on this TV. At least if I do, 
I am still not aware of it. But the problem has been solved. I am no 
longer frustrated, and I now know next time to do more research on 
something I know barely nothing about. Lesson well learned..


I ended up purchasing a pair of speakers with sub wolfer, from Best Buy. 
It cost a lot less then the sound bar, and this made me rather happy. 
Plus, the man with geek squad, was quite helpful. They usually are when 
I go in there. He made sure my friends and I knew how to set up the 
speakers. We got home, and set them up in no time. It was terrific!


Thank you for listening to all of this, and giving me important 
information. I learned a lot!

Interest in a list to discuss I device and Mac betas?

[Adam Morris]

Hi all,

I realise there is currently a list to discuss betas but people aren't 
being added in over a month.


I'm gauging interest in a new list.

If people can write to me off list at

a...@damorris.com

if interested.

Depending on interest I'll set up a list.
