RE: Apple Introduces Cheapest iPad Yet, Special Edition Red iPhone - Bloomberg

2017-03-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Christopher,

I have no idea, when you search for something in Google something is bound to 
pop up, I was just pulling Pablo's Android headphones because it's so much fun 
to tease him, criticise Android even just a bit and he's charging to the 
rescue. Good thing he didn't buy a Note 7 or he would have had to wear a Nomex 
suit and carry a fire extinguisher in his backpack. Anyways, I'll stop it now, 
it's fun for a bit but enough is enough.
Pablo, I give you $100 for your iPhone 7, sounds like it's just lying around 
there and from the way you make it sound it's just a piece of junk so it must 
not be worth a lot, right and for that $100 you can probably buy 2 Android 
tablets. *smile*


Take care,
Sieghard

I looked for a date and couldn't find it, but when was that article written? 
The fact that Blackberry had 25% of the market share and Nokia 7% makes me 
think it's based on kind of dated information. Be interesting to know if things 
have changed at all. I know I'm happier with Android now then I would have been 
just a year ago.

RE: Item chooser question

2017-03-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Wayne,

Does it pop up for you when you are doing 2-finger double taps? I just tried 
various hard presses and nothing seems to bring up the item chooser except a 
very pronounced 2-finger triple tap. In any case, you can't turn it off or 
disable it and all you can really do is practice your gestures so you can 
consistently do the ones you want avoiding the ones you don't want.

Regards,
Sieghard

the gesture for the item chooser is a two finger triple tap.
Unless the iPhone 7 has an ultra sensitive screen and you are touching with 
more fingers than you realize, I'm not sure how you are getting it.
Or, is that because of a 2 finger hard press?

much funnier than Android users? It’s because Android users are usually
so frustrated with their phones that they have no sense of humour. There

Sieghard,

Sorry man, but you made me laugh a lot. You said “But Pablo, don’t say
it is better because it is not.”. Because it is not? why is it not?

Because you said so?

Have you used an android phone with android 7.1 ?

No right?

Ok, I have more knowledge to say that it is better. If you try an
android phone for months and you come to the list and explain why you
believe IOs is better than android. I will not laugh, I promise.

But come on man. If I am saying that for me android is better, obviously
I am saying why I believe than android is better than IOs. It is better
because I don’t have the software policies that IOs has. More over I
have found better accessibility in apps that exist in IOs and android. I
have found in android a lot more flexibility, something that IOs doesn’t
know what that means. I have found a lot of customization, another word
that IOs doesn’t know what that means.

Leave the list?

No way, I like to bother you, you know I have nothing else to do during
the whole day, and during the whole week, during the 365 days of the
year. If I don’t lieve the list is for three reasons; because I have IOs
devices, because I train people with IOs, and because I like to bother you.

Again, all of this are my opinions, and I am basing my opinions in my
experience and expectations.

How do you get Siri to say email addresses correctly? One problem 
I have with Siri is that it will say the punctuation in my 
messages when I don't want it to.  I would like to have it put 
the actual punctuation in my messages.  Same goes for email 
addresses.  If I want to send an email, how do I get Siri to say

Sieghard,
Sorry man, but you made me laugh a lot. You said “But Pablo, don’t say it is 
better because it is not.”. Because it is not? why is it not?
Because you said so?
Have you used an android phone with android 7.1 ?
No right?
Ok, I have more knowledge to say that it is better. If you try an android phone 
for months and you come to the list and explain why you believe IOs is better 
than android. I will not laugh, I promise.
But come on man. If I am saying that for me android is better, obviously I am 
saying why I believe than android is better than IOs. It is better because I 
don’t have the software policies that IOs has. More over I have found better 
accessibility in apps that exist in IOs and android. I have found in android a 
lot more flexibility, something that IOs doesn’t know what that means. I have 
found a lot of customization, another word that IOs doesn’t know what that 
means.
Leave the list?
No way, I like to bother you, you know I have nothing else to do during the 
whole day, and during the whole week, during the 365 days of the year. If I 
don’t lieve the list is for three reasons; because I have IOs devices, because 
I train people with IOs, and because I like to bother you.
Again, all of this are my opinions, and I am basing my opinions in my 
experience and expectations.

on this list again after you left for Android a year or two ago. Anyhow, I 
guess Android must have become amazing in those few months and it sounds as if 
you will once again sell your iPhone and leave this list to join the Android 
side. I’m glad Android and the google Pixel are such good alternatives to iOS 
and the iPhone, without competition nobody would be very motivated to do 
better. But Pablo, don’t say it is better because it is not. It is simply 
different and Android appeals to some people more than iOS and vice versa.

Pablo,



I'm not sure why you think it's wrong for a for-profit company like
Apple to want to make money on their products. I guarantee you that any
company not operating in this fashion won't be long of this world. And
you speak of Android as if it's one company instead of the multitude of
companies that make devices that run under Android. If you don't like
Apple's closed file system which seems to be working pretty well for
them based on their sales and current stock price, you should use an
Android device and I hope it meets all your needs. That's the way supply
and demand is supposed to work in our economic system.

Pixel doesn’t have a sd card slot, but it is not the only android
device. Samsung and many other big cellphone brands creates phones with
sd cards.

Really the problem with apple is that they want to make money with
everything, and they want to handle what you place in your iPhone
memory. With the story abour copy rights they have done very difficult
for users manage music between iPhones, or also between iPhone and other
devices. Yes, we can use iTunes to transfer music to our iPhones, but
use this app is really difficult for standard users. More over in
android devices you can store there documents of all types, you can
create folders and subfolders in the same way how we do in our
computers. In iPhones the story is different. It is one of the reasons
why I bought an android device. Android and IOs have different politics
and different cultures. Apple’s culture is money, money and more money.
Android’s culture is share, share and share again. Apple wants to
control so much

Hi Sieghard, while I can appreciate your issue regarding OS
reliability and phone integrity, the fact is people are moving away
from Apple devices for just that reason.  With the added advances in
the camera, both front and rear, pictures will get larger, and I
don’t even think there are phones available higher than the five
that have 16 gig memory, and even those devices are pushing it.
When they introduced the enhanced camera in the iPhone six, they
realized that sixteen gigs just wouldn’t do if people wanted to take
pictures, I mean, I’m still amazed that they’re still offering the
32 gig devices, especially in the iPad, but again, this is just the
smaller issue.  How many phones out there are getting more and more
waterproof and dust proof, and they don’t seem to have a problem
with an SD card slot, in addition, the OS security could be plugged
to avoid that sort of thing.  Fact is, I think that Apple is
guarding it’s closed platform so people are forced to get their
content from iTunes and App store.  Open up the file system and
you’re looking at an easier way to jailbreak, and Apple couldn’t
have that.  Regardless, I do think that Apple should open their eyes
when it comes to expansion, if only to make it easier to connect to
a portable solution, lest they get left out in the cold when the
Android devices that allow for expansion come rumbling in.  Just a
thought.

Hi Victor,



I am not sure if Apple could keep their walled garden concept and
offer SD card expansion slots. If you allow people to introduce
media on an SD card then the OS must have access to the folders or
maybe it would be more accurate to say that Apple would have to give
users access to what is on the SD card and that would possibly
defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform. Any SD
card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of
latency in how fast things get loaded and I think this all goes
against what Apple wants to achieve. I think actually that even some
high-end Android phones are moving away from that, but I might be
wrong, just something I heard. Does the Google Pixel for example
have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion slot on an
iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but
having it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there
hardly is any space left as is and of course making a highly
waterproof or water resistant device would probably be much more
difficult if

Hi Pablo,

 

I like to bother you just as much and I guess we make each other laugh. So why 
is Android better? Because you say so, right? Yes, you have both devices and 
you think and this is the keyword here “you think” that Android is better. That 
of course means it is better in your opinion, right? As I said, I am sure 
Android by now is very advanced, I am sure the Google Pixel is a very nice 
phone and I’m sure many people prefer Android over iOS. But that doesn’t mean 
iOS is not good and that many people don’t prefer it over Android. I know a 
number of people who have switched from Android to iOS and think it’s way 
better and the same goes the other way around.

Anyways, now you better shut up because you know nothing and I could take you 
any day and with both hands tied behind my back, how do you like that *grin*

Oh, and if the Pixel with Android is so great, why has Apple sold more iPhone 7 
in the first weekend than Google has sold Pixels since they were released?

Watch ESPN is a separate app; I set it up but haven’t tried to watch stuff. Its 
purpose is to let you see ESPN content that is on the different ESPN channels. 
No idea how that part of it works.

I don't understand how this devolved into an argument over which is better, 
iPhone, or Android.

The fact is, each has benefits above and beyond the other, and there is no 
clear winner.

Just like if you come across a blind Android user, they'll say that the Android 
is more accessible, and the iPhone user will state the opposite.

I simply pointed out that Mary could not make such a blanket statement with 
providing a factual basis for her statement.  I outlined what was wrong with 
her statement, and I've moved on from there.

I've no idea how we've gotten into this devolved argument again.

I've noticed that this argument comes across every few months and I don't 
understand why.

Every one has read the benefits of each OS, and it's all subjective, in the end.

This is just my opinion, but I've used both Apple and Android, and I find 
Android to be the better platform. I appreciate it's openness and 
customizability. I like the widget support it's had for years. I like the 
variety in form factors. Android does have trouble with fragmentation though, 
but I'm willing to put up with this for the benefits I perceive.

Apple is a great product and a great ecosystem. I used it for years before I 
thought Android accessibility had caught up enough to make the jump possible. I 
still use an iPhone for work.

I think either platform is great depending on what you're looking for and how 
you use your phone. I think choice is good, and I don't think people need to 
get defensive when talking about the brand they chose to use or put down the 
other options. I for one hope both platforms get better and more accessible.

One cannot say that Apple is making most of the money in this

Mark,

I have two-factor authentication enabled and I have the iCloud Control Panel 
installed on my Windows 10 laptop and a Windows 7 desktop at work. I don't 
recall what I had to do, if anything I may have had to enter a code or 
something, but I certainly don't seem to have any issues. I mostly have iCloud

Sieghard,
Sorry man, but you made me laugh a lot. You said “But Pablo, don’t say it is 
better because it is not.”. Because it is not? why is it not?
Because you said so?
Have you used an android phone with android 7.1 ?
No right?
Ok, I have more knowledge to say that it is better. If you try an android phone 
for months and you come to the list and explain why you believe IOs is better 
than android. I will not laugh, I promise.
But come on man. If I am saying that for me android is better, obviously I am 
saying why I believe than android is better than IOs. It is better because I 
don’t have the software policies that IOs has. More over I have found better 
accessibility in apps that exist in IOs and android. I have found in android a 
lot more flexibility, something that IOs doesn’t know what that means. I have 
found a lot of customization, another word that IOs doesn’t know what that 
means.
Leave the list?
No way, I like to bother you, you know I have nothing else to do during the 
whole day, and during the whole week, during the 365 days of the year. If I 
don’t lieve the list is for three reasons; because I have IOs devices, because 
I train people with IOs, and because I like to bother you.
Again, all of this are my opinions, and I am basing my opinions in my 
experience and expectations.

Hi Pablo,

I like to bother you just as much and I guess we make each other laugh. So why 
is Android better? Because you say so, right? Yes, you have both devices and 
you think and this is the keyword here “you think” that Android is better. That 
of course means it is better in your opinion, right? As I said, I am sure 
Android by now is very advanced, I am sure the Google Pixel is a very nice 
phone and I’m sure many people prefer Android over iOS. But that doesn’t mean 
iOS is not good and that many people don’t prefer it over Android. I know a 
number of people who have switched from Android to iOS and think it’s way 
better and the same goes the other way around.
Anyways, now you better shut up because you know nothing and I could take you 
any day and with both hands tied behind my back, how do you like that *grin*
Oh, and if the Pixel with Android is so great, why has Apple sold more iPhone 7 
in the first weekend than Google has sold Pixels since they were released?

Let's Use Social Media to Advocate for The Visually Impaired

2017-03-23 Thread M. Taylor
Hello All,

Earlier this week, both Apple and Starbucks announced that they were, in
effect, reaffirming their commitments to several agendas.  

In apple's case, they introduced iPhone 7 and 7 Plus RED Special Edition,
which is intended to give customers a way to participate in the fight
against aids.

In Starbucks case, they affirmed their commitment to hiring thousands and
thousands of veterans and immigrants.  

Upon reading each of these announcements, via various social media outlets,
I requested that these two companies make a commitment to the blind and low
vision.

To Apple, I asked that they play a more active role in research that will
bring, eyesight, (in quote marks) to the blind and low vision.

To Starbucks, I asked that they commit to a policy of hiring blind and low
vision employees, where reasonably possible.  

I am posting this to the list in order to ask those of you with social media
accounts to make similar requests of these and any other companies that
boast of their commitments to investing in any particular demographic.  

We must begin to directly advocate for ourselves, as visually impaired
people, if major change is ever going to occur and we must do it on the
global stage so that our sighted counterparts will know that we are here and
that we matter.

The Gospel According to Mark, Chapter 2017.2.1.1.A. (smile)

RE: an odd problem with facebook messenger

2017-03-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
When I just checked there seem to be a few new sections or whatever you want to 
call them, one was "active now" and another one said something about creating a 
room. Each of them had three dots beside it and when I tapped on that it popped 
up with a window where I could hide this. It did say that it may reappear if 
there was new content or something like that, but now after I did this after 
"New Message" it goes straight into my contacts list.
I saw nothing about "ad of the day". One thing I wonder is whether you maybe 
custom labelled something and it's showing up here. The other day I downloaded 
the new Paypal Business app. On my home screen it just showed up as "Business". 
I therefore custom labelled it "Paypal Business". Next thing I was in the CBC 
News app which has sections like Top Stories, Canada, World, Politics, 
Business, Tech and Science etc. Suddenly the "Business" section was read by 
Voiceover as "Paypal Business".
This is clearly a restriction to the custom label feature as it seems to now 
treat all occurances of the word "business" as "Paypal Business", almost more 
like what I expect from a custom dictionary. Of course I went bak to the Paypal 
business app, brought up the custom label feature aain and changed it back to 
"Business".

RE: A Question to iTunes for Windows Users with Two-Factor Authentication Enabled on Their iCloud Accounts

2017-03-23 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,
I do not use the iCloud Panel but I do use itunes and the Cloud. I have an iPad 
Mini 4 and an iPhone 6S+ and I have two factor authentication enabled. I use 
that very successfully with both devices. Oh it also works well with the Apple 
TV 4. Although I am glad I have a Bluetooth Keyboard that lets me switch 
between all three devices at will just to save time. That has nothing to do 
with accessibility just an added benefit.
Hope that helps,
Merv

Hi Sir,
I can't address iCloud control panel for Windows as I hadn't known it to be 
accessible so hadn't touched it in years.  If it's been improved I'd love to 
know of it. As for tfa yes I've run with it for years and sometimes iTunes

if your pc is a trusted device then it shouldn't be much of an issue. 
the biggest issue I ever had with it truthfully was when I only had one Apple 
device and had restored it to factory defaults before setting up my new device 
thus couldn’t verify myself to get into my Apple ID to set up that second 
device. Oopsey time for a momentary panic attack which at that point I solved 
by temporarily disabling tfa long enough to set up new device and then could 
re-enable it. but from the sounds of it you might have more than one device so 
hopefully that'll never be an issue for you or me now again (smile).
I'm sure if I'm missing a facet others will chime in too.

Subject: A Question to iTunes for Windows Users with Two-Factor Authentication 
Enabled on Their iCloud Accounts

Hello All,

Later this evening, I am going to enable two-factor iCloud Authentication on 
several accounts, some of which use iTunes for Windows.

To all iTunes for Windows Users, who have done so, were their any problems 
using iTunes for Windows or the iCloud for Windows Control panel after enabling 
two-factor authentication?  If so, how did you resolve the problems.

Thank you,

Sieghard,
Sorry man, but you made me laugh a lot. You said “But Pablo, don’t say it is 
better because it is not.”. Because it is not? why is it not?
Because you said so?
Have you used an android phone with android 7.1 ?
No right?
Ok, I have more knowledge to say that it is better. If you try an android phone 
for months and you come to the list and explain why you believe IOs is better 
than android. I will not laugh, I promise.
But come on man. If I am saying that for me android is better, obviously I am 
saying why I believe than android is better than IOs. It is better because I 
don’t have the software policies that IOs has. More over I have found better 
accessibility in apps that exist in IOs and android. I have found in android a 
lot more flexibility, something that IOs doesn’t know what that means. I have 
found a lot of customization, another word that IOs doesn’t know what that 
means.
Leave the list?
No way, I like to bother you, you know I have nothing else to do during the 
whole day, and during the whole week, during the 365 days of the year. If I 
don’t lieve the list is for three reasons; because I have IOs devices, because 
I train people with IOs, and because I like to bother you.
Again, all of this are my opinions, and I am basing my opinions in my

If you have an old iPad, such as an iPad two or three or even an iPad air the 
original air, and you don't want to lay out the big bucks for an iPad Pro which 
is still rumored to be coming later this year, that's the advantage of buying 
this one. It's cheaper. If it satisfies you and you don't have or want to pay 
the big bucks, you can still get an Apple tablet for a "cheap price".

Florida and was signed in with my Prime account.

Everything seems accessible so far. I have not tried to purchase anything
yet but shopping and Browsing is very good. And there is a 4 digit pin to
protect the account from someone just getting on the App and buying while
I'm not looking, laughs!

I was wondering if anyone has actually purchased on Amazon through the Apple
TV 4 yet and if it was accessible.

This is a good step forward since so far Apple and Amazon have not played
well together. I'm hoping that Amazon Prime will eventually come to the
Apple TV 4 so I can watch movies without having to use my iPad or iPhone.

RE: iTunes 12,6

2017-03-23 Thread Merv Keck
So far I am using 12.6 successfully on my windows 10 Home with Jaws 18. One 
weird quirk I noticed was that some files I had deleted but apparently were in 
the cloud showed back up and had to be deleted again. I have the cloud enabled 
in preferences because it seems to make my experience work more smoothly with 
my Apple TV 4 when playing files on my PC.

Hi All, 
Just checking what people's experiences have been with iTunes 12,6? I don't 
want to update and then have to delete everything off to re-install an earlier

Hi Marie,

If a device is reset and you are at the initial screen which says "swipe to 
setup" you must have a SIM card installed otherwise you cannot complete the 
setup. Once it is setup you can take the SIM card out and it is no problem, but 
you do need it initially.

You do not need to activate the phone to use it as an IPod. The activation is

I wish I had kept the email you sent me a few months ago when you became active 
on this list again after you left for Android a year or two ago. Anyhow, I 
guess Android must have become amazing in those few months and it sounds as if 
you will once again sell your iPhone and leave this list to join the Android 
side. I’m glad Android and the google Pixel are such good alternatives to iOS 
and the iPhone, without competition nobody would be very motivated to do 
better. But Pablo, don’t say it is better because it is not. It is simply 
different and Android appeals to some people more than iOS and vice versa.

Hi Victor,

I am not sure if Apple could keep their walled garden concept and offer SD card 
expansion slots. If you allow people to introduce media on an SD card then the 
OS must have access to the folders or maybe it would be more accurate to say 
that Apple would have to give users access to what is on the SD card and that 
would possibly defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform. Any SD 
card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of latency in how 
fast things get loaded and I think this all goes against what Apple wants to 
achieve. I think actually that even some high-end Android phones are moving 
away from that, but I might be wrong, just something I heard. Does the Google 
Pixel for example have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion slot 
on an iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but having 
it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there hardly is any space 
left as is and of course making a highly waterproof or water resistant device 
would probably be much more difficult if the device had an SD card slot 
Personally I have no problem with Apple offering internal memory, I totally 
agree that nowadays 16 Gb doesn’t get you far, but I wonder how many people 
still buy 16 Gb devices if they can get a 64 Gb device (4 times the space) for 
$100 more.

Sieghard

comparing the smartphone market to the market which includes TV’s, appliances,

But it's true. There's a whole lot of the technical press that is all over 
articles every time some company gains a little bit of marketshare. Waymore 
phones have android on them then there are iPhones. And that makes exactly no 
difference, because the vast majority of the actual money being made is being

Hi Alan,

Well said, Apple has a totally different business model as it relies on its 
hardware and services to make money. Google makes its money from advertising, 
but of course now that Alphabet Inc. which owns Google and a multitude of other 
companies has been set up, it is even more complicated. The fact is that 
Android is a platform which manufacturers can use and customize and impose 
their own UI elements on, there are hundreds and hundreds of manufacturers who 
make Android devices and there is one company which makes Apple devices with 
iOS. I always hear how users are running from Apple to Android because of all 
that fantastic flexibility and freedom Android offers, yet while apple 
experienced less growth about a year ago, the iPhone 7/7 Plus again were hugely 
successful and just as people leave iOS to try Android, the opposite is also 
true. I really think we should stop making every argument for or against one or 
the other a competition as to what is better. The fct is that both platforms 
are good, both are very mature by now, you can get beautiful devices from Apple 
and you can get beautiful Android phones. Everybody decides what they want and 
you are totally correct that Apple should make as much money as they can which 
of course is what they do. They are a publically traded company and they have 
an obligation towards their shareholders to make money. Pablo left the iPhone 
behind a couple or 3 years ago because he thought Android was so much better. 
When he came back to the list having just bought an iPhone 7 I think he said 
himself how Android had all this flexibility but that it also had its issues. I 
personally can’t justify owning two high-end smartphones and maintaining two 
cell phone plans and while Apple sometimes totally screws up, I do for the most 
part like their devices and ecosystem and so far have not felt the need to try

Pablo,

I'm not sure why you think it's wrong for a for-profit company like Apple to 
want to make money on their products. I guarantee you that any company not 
operating in this fashion won't be long of this world. And you speak of Android 
as if it's one company instead of the multitude of companies that make devices 
that run under Android. If you don't like Apple's closed file system which 
seems to be working pretty well for them based on their sales and current stock 
price, you should use an Android device and I hope it meets all your needs. 
That's the way supply and demand is supposed to work in our economic system.

Pixel doesn’t have a sd card slot, but it is not the only android device. 
Samsung and many other big cellphone brands creates phones with sd cards.
Really the problem with apple is that they want to make money with everything, 
and they want to handle what you place in your iPhone memory. With the story 
abour copy rights they have done very difficult for users manage music between 
iPhones, or also between iPhone and other devices. Yes, we can use iTunes to 
transfer music to our iPhones, but use this app is really difficult for 
standard users. More over in android devices you can store there documents of 
all types, you can create folders and subfolders in the same way how we do in 
our computers. In iPhones the story is different. It is one of the reasons why 
I bought an android device. Android and IOs have different politics and 
different cultures. Apple’s culture is money, money and more money. Android’s 
culture is share, share and share again. Apple wants to control so much what we 
do in our devices. Android gives freedom to do what ever you want, and more 
important, in a very easy way.

2017-03-23 Thread Cris Ali
I have no interest in the apple versus android comparison.  What I find 
interesting though is that the new iPad is even weaker than the iPad pro  9.7 
inch which was released last spring.  The iPad pro 9.7 of last year has 5 MB 
front facing Camera and 12 MB back Camera.  The new one has 1.2 MB front 
facing, and 8 MB back Camera.  They both has the same A9 processor and they 
have similar storage options.  It also seems that the new model is slightly 
heavier. So the question is then:  What is the advantage of buying the new iPad 
other than the fact it is slightly cheaper?
Did any of you find any other advantages for buying the new iPad?

Apple Introduces Cheapest iPad Yet, Special Edition Red iPhone
More stories by Alex 
Webb

Apple Inc. introduced a revamped 
version of its most popular-sized iPad at the cheapest price yet, and a shiny 
red iPhone 7, whose sales will help to combat AIDS.

Apple unveiled a new 9.7-inch iPad with a brighter Retina display starting at 
$329, and a special edition red-aluminum finish iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, 
part of the company’s decade-long partnership with (RED), which contributes to 
the Global Fund to fight HIV and AIDS.

“Since we began working with (RED) 10 years ago, our customers have made a 
significant impact in fighting the spread of AIDS through the purchase of our 
products, from the original iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition all the way 
to today’s lineup of Beats products and accessories for iPhone, iPad and Apple 
Watch,” Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said in a 
statement Tuesday.

Apple is the world’s largest corporate donor to the Global Fund, contributing 
more than $130 million, the company said.

Apple is expected to reveal a significant upgrade to the iPhone later this year.
Cupertino, California-based Apple last year unveiled a new iPhone which 
reignited sales growth in the Christmas quarter after a year of declines. Those 
falling sales came even as Apple introduced a cheaper handset in March in an 
effort to spur growth in emerging markets. The only sales growth in the 2016 
fiscal year came from the services business, which includes Apple Music and the 
App Store, and the other products category.

Apple shares rose less than one percent to $142.55 at 10:24 a.m. in New York. 
Earlier they hit a new intraday high of $142.80.

The new iPad starts at $329 for 32GB with Wi-Fi and $459 for 32GB Wi-Fi plus 
cellular. It will be available to order starting March 24 in the U.S. and more 
than 20 other countries and regions. The iPhone (RED) models will be available 
in 128GB and 256GB models starting at $749 from March 24. Apple also announced 
new storage capacity for the iPhone SE. That 4-inch display model will now be 
available in 32GB and 128GB models, doubling the current capacity and replacing 
the previous models.

Other product launches Tuesday include a new app called 
Clips,
 that helps people combine video clips, photos and music that can be shared 
through social media and messages. Apple also said its Swift Playgrounds iPad 
app, which helps students learn to code, is available in five additional 
languages: Japanese, French, German, Spanish and simplified Chinese.

2017-03-23 Thread Pablo Cesar Morales
Gerardo,
I disagree. I have found better accessibility on android apps, and in all areas 
of android than what I have found in IOs apps and IOs. I also use both 
platforms. I have several examples of apps on android that provide better 
accessibility than what I have found in IOs. IOs is more limited, and it makes 
more simple the use of phone and apps, but simplicity doesn't mean better. 
Ability to get information, is what I call accessibility.

Apple Acquires Workflow App

2017-03-23 Thread Alan Lemly
The Workflow app got a lot of attention on this list when it came out a
couple of years back so I thought the below news item I got from Mac Rumors
via Lire might be of interest. I'm pasting the story after my signature.

Apple Acquires Popular Automation App Workflow

Wednesday March 22, 2017 4:48 pm PDT by Juli Clover

 

Apple has acquired well-known and popular automation app Workflow, reports
TechCrunch. The deal was reportedly finalized today for an unspecified sum.

 

Workflow, first released in 2014, is an automation tool that can essentially
do anything. It allows users to create a variety of workflows to accomplish
tasks like creating GIFs from a series of photos, pulling images from a web
page, translating an article, posting photos to multiple social networks at
once, calculating a tip, and tons more.

 

 

It is equipped with a built-in Gallery, which allows people to quickly find
and use a wide range of automation tasks, and it can be used to create
custom automations.

 

Apple is purchasing the Workflow app and the Workflow team, including Ari
Weinstein, Conrad Kramer, and Nick Frey, will be joining the company.

 

"We are thrilled to be joining Apple," said Weinstein in a statement.
"We've worked closely with Apple from the very beginning, from kickstarting
our company as students attending WWDC to developing and launching Workflow
and seeing its amazing success on the App Store. We can't wait to take our
work to the next level at Apple and contribute to products that touch people
across the world.

 

Apple confirmed the acquisition of Workflow, which notably received an Apple
Design Award in 2015 for its excellent accessibility features, likely one of
the reasons behind the purchase.

 

Typically apps acquired from Apple disappear from the App Store, but
Workflow will remain available and will be made free starting later today.
The Gallery will continue to be updated on a regular basis, as will app
integrations.

 

Beyond the app, it is not clear what Apple will do with Workflow in the
future, and whether it will be built into future versions of iOS and macOS,
but it is definitely a possibility. TechCrunch speculates that it could be
used alongside Siri in the future, or perhaps be the backbone of powerful
automation tools for the iPad.

 

Update: Workflow can now be downloaded from the App Store for free. [Direct

If you mean directly connected to the phone, not that I know of (although 
there are micro xd cards which go up to 128gb I think, and you can purchase 
a usb lightning card reader).


However, you can connect external large drives to a pc which is always on, 
and make the drive sharable, or connect such a drive to the usb sharing port 
of many wifi routers (my new router from TPLink has 2 such usb ports, giving 
you an instant sort of NAS).  And of course, you might consider setting up a 
NAS yourself (more trouble to setup, but it's always on and faster and more 
reliable than connecting an external drive to a wifi router).


Hope somewhere in there is the answer you needed?

Music is actually an app not a folder and unfortunately there is no way to 
get music into the Music app except to use iTunes, buy the music from the 
iTunes Store or  sign up for Apple Music. Actually if you do have Apple 
Music and you have some of your own music which is not available from 
iTunes, you still need to have this music either in iTunes or on your 
iPhone so it can get uploaded to Apple.
You can use Dropbox or OneDrive to store you music and then use a 
different app to play said music, I think one of these apps is called 
CloudPlayer.
Having said all this, the latest version of iTunes is actually the most 
accessible version since iTunes 11 and syncing music is really not very 
difficult.

Yes, you are right. Like Christopher said before. Everything depends of

several years, and for several years I have been complaining about apple 
software policies. Now with android I don't have those problems, so of 
course  I am happy using android more than IOs. However people who are 
comfortable using apple software policies , they don't see any advantage 
using android. But those are likes. I like apple because it was the first 
smart device that I used. However some situations that aggravated me that 
probably doesn't aggravate you or other users, moved me to android. But you,

Pablo,



I'm not sure why you think it's wrong for a for-profit company like
Apple to want to make money on their products. I guarantee you that
any company not operating in this fashion won't be long of this world.
And you speak of Android as if it's one company instead of the
multitude of companies that make devices that run under Android. If
you don't like Apple's closed file system which seems to be working
pretty well for them based on their sales and current stock price, you
should use an Android device and I hope it meets all your needs.
That's the way supply and demand is supposed to work in our economic

It doesn’t make sence. Yes, a lot of people is leaving IOs and are
moving to android. You should try it, is much better. However I should
recommend  that don’t buy a cheap android phone. Try to buy a nexus 6p,
or a pixel phone. They are great.

Well, apparently not too many people are moving away. Apple is making
most of the money in this industry. There are many people who make
android devices. Most of them make no profit. Companies don't stay in
business forever if they don't make a profit.

Hi Sieghard, while I can appreciate your issue regarding OS
reliability and phone integrity, the fact is people are moving away
from Apple devices for just that reason.  With the added advances in
the camera, both front and rear, pictures will get larger, and I
don’t even think there are phones available higher than the five
that have 16 gig memory, and even those devices are pushing it.
When they introduced the enhanced camera in the iPhone six, they
realized that sixteen gigs just wouldn’t do if people wanted to take
pictures, I mean, I’m still amazed that they’re still offering the
32 gig devices, especially in the iPad, but again, this is just the
smaller issue.  How many phones out there are getting more and more
waterproof and dust proof, and they don’t seem to have a problem
with an SD card slot, in addition, the OS security could be plugged
to avoid that sort of thing.  Fact is, I think that Apple is
guarding it’s closed platform so people are forced to get their
content from iTunes and App store.  Open up the file system and
you’re looking at an easier way to jailbreak, and Apple couldn’t
have that.  Regardless, I do think that Apple should open their eyes
when it comes to expansion, if only to make it easier to connect to
a portable solution, lest they get left out in the cold when the
Android devices that allow for expansion come rumbling in.  Just a
thought.

Hi Victor,



I am not sure if Apple could keep their walled garden concept and
offer SD card expansion slots. If you allow people to introduce
media on an SD card then the OS must have access to the folders or
maybe it would be more accurate to say that Apple would have to give
users access to what is on the SD card and that would possibly
defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform. Any SD
card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of
latency in how fast things get loaded and I think this all goes
against what Apple wants to achieve. I think actually that even some
high-end Android phones are moving away from that, but I might be
wrong, just something I heard. Does the Google Pixel for example
have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion slot on an
iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but
having it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there
hardly is any space left as is and of course making a highly
waterproof or water resistant device would probably be much more
difficult if the device had an SD card slot Personally I have no
problem with Apple offering internal memory, I totally agree that
nowadays 16 Gb doesn’t get you far, but I wonder how many people
still buy 16 Gb devices if they can get a 64 Gb device (4 times the
space) for $100 more.



Regards,

Sieghard

RE: Apple Introduces Cheapest iPad Yet, Special Edition Red iPhone - Bloomberg

Yes, you are right. Like Christopher said before. Everything depends of likes. 
Some people like apple, some people like android. I used iPhone for several 
years, and for several years I have been complaining about apple software 
policies. Now with android I don't have those problems, so of course  I am 
happy using android more than IOs. However people who are comfortable using 
apple software policies , they don't see any advantage using android. But those 
are likes. I like apple because it was the first smart device that I used. 
However some situations that aggravated me that probably doesn't aggravate you 
or other users, moved me to android. But you, me and everyone are different.

Well, apparently not too many people are moving away. Apple is making
most of the money in this industry. There are many people who make
android devices. Most of them make no profit. Companies don't stay in
business forever if they don't make a profit.

Hi Sieghard, while I can appreciate your issue regarding OS
reliability and phone integrity, the fact is people are moving away
from Apple devices for just that reason.  With the added advances in
the camera, both front and rear, pictures will get larger, and I
don’t even think there are phones available higher than the five
that have 16 gig memory, and even those devices are pushing it.
When they introduced the enhanced camera in the iPhone six, they
realized that sixteen gigs just wouldn’t do if people wanted to take
pictures, I mean, I’m still amazed that they’re still offering the
32 gig devices, especially in the iPad, but again, this is just the
smaller issue.  How many phones out there are getting more and more
waterproof and dust proof, and they don’t seem to have a problem
with an SD card slot, in addition, the OS security could be plugged
to avoid that sort of thing.  Fact is, I think that Apple is
guarding it’s closed platform so people are forced to get their
content from iTunes and App store.  Open up the file system and
you’re looking at an easier way to jailbreak, and Apple couldn’t
have that.  Regardless, I do think that Apple should open their eyes
when it comes to expansion, if only to make it easier to connect to
a portable solution, lest they get left out in the cold when the
Android devices that allow for expansion come rumbling in.  Just a
thought.

Hi Victor,



I am not sure if Apple could keep their walled garden concept and
offer SD card expansion slots. If you allow people to introduce
media on an SD card then the OS must have access to the folders or
maybe it would be more accurate to say that Apple would have to give
users access to what is on the SD card and that would possibly
defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform. Any SD
card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of
latency in how fast things get loaded and I think this all goes
against what Apple wants to achieve. I think actually that even some
high-end Android phones are moving away from that, but I might be
wrong, just something I heard. Does the Google Pixel for example
have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion slot on an
iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but
having it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there
hardly is any space left as is and of course making a highly
waterproof or water resistant device would probably be much more
difficult if the device had an SD card slot Personally I have no
problem with Apple offering internal memory, I totally agree that
nowadays 16 Gb doesn’t get you far, but I wonder how many people
still buy 16 Gb devices if they can get a 64 Gb device (4 times the
space) for $100 more.



Regards,

Sieghard

I don’t agree.  Granted, the 300 dollar price tag is nice, but not
with the memory it’s offering.



I think the 32 and 16 models of any device is outdated, unless it’s
got an expansion slot for an SD card.



Frankly, I’m completely surprised that Apple hasn’t embraced this
concept, sin

i,
android, however, at the end of the day, is android. and no matter how 
much you customise it, no matter how accessible it is, at the end of the 
day, it's android, and trust me, some of us don't like it. and no, it's 
not a matter of being able to use it or whether it's accessible.

Pablo,



I'm not sure why you think it's wrong for a for-profit company like
Apple to want to make money on their products. I guarantee you that any
company not operating in this fashion won't be long of this world. And
you speak of Android as if it's one company instead of the multitude of
companies that make devices that run under Android. If you don't like
Apple's closed file system which seems to be working pretty well for
them based on their sales and current stock price, you should use an
Android device and I hope it meets all your needs. That's the way supply
and demand is supposed to work in our economic system.

Pixel doesn’t have a sd card slot, but it is not the only android
device. Samsung and many other big cellphone brands creates phones with
sd cards.

Really the problem with apple is that they want to make money with
everything, and they want to handle what you place in your iPhone
memory. With the story abour copy rights they have done very difficult
for users manage music between iPhones, or also between iPhone and other
devices. Yes, we can use iTunes to transfer music to our iPhones, but
use this app is really difficult for standard users. More over in
android devices you can store there documents of all types, you can
create folders and subfolders in the same way how we do in our
computers. In iPhones the story is different. It is one of the reasons
why I bought an android device. Android and IOs have different politics
and different cultures. Apple’s culture is money, money and more money.
Android’s culture is share, share and share again. Apple wants to
control so much what we do in our devices. Android gives freedom to do
what ever you want, and more important, in a very easy way.
