Accessible VPN

[Ketan Kothari]

Dear Friends,

I am Ketan Kothari in Mumbai, India.  I wish to listen to cricket
commentary from UK that is geoblocked.  Is there any accessible VPN?
Please do suggest.  Thank you.

Hi,

I use surfshark for windows, it's completely accessible. They're also
almost always doing sales.

[Noe Villeda]

That sounds good, will have to check it out.

Does anyone know of an accessible tool to either check your speed test, or an

Re: my iphone stopped working on my wifi

[Diane Giannetti]

We have lost our power also. Not back yet. Thank God Gail and George went out 
and got some coffee for us. Anyhow, I just want the people involved in taking 
care of our electricity to be safe and make sure all is OK before everything  
Goes on.  It’s frustrating for us but it’s got to be more frustrating for them.

Re: my iphone stopped working on my wifi

[Esther]

Hey, Diane!  That's great that George went out for coffee for you guys.  I'll 
bet the restaurants were really crowded.  I made myself a cup of tea, as my 
water heater is run by gas.  Good thing I don't run by gas!  Hahaha!  If I eat 
too many beans I might!  Anyway, hope we get power soon.  I'm calling 
Eversource "Neversource!"  Take care.

Esther, hope you sort things out very soon. It just seems like these storms 
have it in for the eastern seaboard if they miss us in Florida. Stay safe!

Orbit Writer and Pairing Devices

[Les Kriegler]

Hi All,

 

There has been some discussion on pairing devices to the Orbit Writer. While
I haven't received my unit, it's due any day now, I've been studying the
manual and would like to offer a clarification that could easily be
confusing. Let's say you wish to pair a device to the Writer on Bluetooth
Channel 2. You would activate the channel by pressing Space Left Arrow and
Dot 2. Now, here's what I believe can be confusing. The manual indicates
that you should press the same key combination "to pair."  This actually
places the channel into Pairing Mode. You then have to use your device's
Bluetooth search function to actually connect the device. I realize the
manual does describe that process. At first, I was confused because I'm
accustomed to using the term Pairing Mode which the manual does not indicate
in those words. Perhaps this is obvious to everyone else, but people who are
new to pairing devices could be thrown off by this. I also realize that the
biggest adjustment I will have is depending on haptic feedback for all
Writer System events. I've never done this, I've always depended on a
combination of speech and braille. So there will be a learning curve here.

Best Regards,

 

Les

Closing Apps On The SE 2020:

[Don Moore]

Open apps is pretty obvious.  When you're done though and want to close the
app to reduce the amount of battery drain, how do you do this?

Thanks in advance.

It works the same as the iPhone 8.  Double tap the home button and it should 
say app switcher.  Then do a three finger swipe up to clear the ones that are 
there.

Alexa app and adding an account

[Lelia Struve]

Hey everyone, so I am trying to as the subject says, add an account to another 
device. In other words, someone has an account and I wanna add my account to 
theirs. How do I do that on the Alexa app? I looked it up on google, but it 
says to go to the menu first and there is no longer a menu. Any help would be 
greatly appreciated thank you

Hi,

Is your understanding we pair the Orbit Writer under iPhone bluetooth, not 
VoiceOver Braille?

Re: Orbit Writer and Pairing Devices

[Priscilla Garces (prisci)]

Hi everyone,
Hope all of you are well despite this whole covid19 situation. I just have a 
question about the orbit writer. Is the orbit writer free for members of the 
talking library?
If so, how do you all request one?
Did any of you get the device when participating in the national convention?
I am considering getting one since I want a more portable braille display to 
always carry in my purse and keep up with reading braille.
I have the focus40 from freedom scientific even though it’s not the latest 
generation, but it works well for me.
 I mostly keep it at home since I use it with my Mac computer and it helps me 
still read braille.
What has been your experience with the orbit writer? And is their a difference 
between the orbit reader and orbit writer? If so, what is the difference?

I can be reached out at garcesp...@gmail.com 

Best,

Priscilla

The orbit writer is NOT a Braille display. It is a perkins-style keyboard to 
control your I device or computer.

RE: Orbit Writer and Pairing Devices

Yes, you have to use VoiceOver Braille settings to do the pairing.
It is seen as the Orbit Reader 20 with its serial number right now.
That may change in iOS 14, I hope.

Hi All,

There has been some discussion on pairing devices to the Orbit Writer. While I 
haven’t received my unit, it’s due any day now, I’ve been studying the manual 
and would like to offer a clarification that could easily be confusing. Let’s 
say you wish to pair a device to the Writer on Bluetooth Channel 2. You would 
activate the channel by pressing Space Left Arrow and Dot 2. Now, here’s what I 
believe can be confusing. The manual indicates that you should press the same 
key combination “to pair.”  This actually places the channel into Pairing Mode. 
You then have to use your device’s Bluetooth search function to actually 
connect the device. I realize the manual does describe that process. At first, 
I was confused because I’m accustomed to using the term Pairing Mode which the 
manual does not indicate in those words. Perhaps this is obvious to everyone 
else, but people who are new to pairing devices could be thrown off by this. I 
also realize that the biggest adjustment I will have is depending on haptic 
feedback for all Writer System events. I’ve never done this, I’ve always

Re: Messages has alerts

This usually means that you have a message that you sent to somebody that did 
not get delivered. Do you have to go into your Messages app find one that has 
the alert and you can dismiss it by tapping on it. Hope this helps.

Hi List,



I upgraded Outlook for iOS a day or two ago and am running version 4.49.1 of 
the app. When I opened my inbox today, I noticed that the vertical scrollbar 
for moving through the message list quickly is no longer present. Is anyone 
else experiencing this issue? I've started a Support thread with Microsoft but 
wanted to also check here.



Microsoft has asked me to take a screen shot and send it to them. Can anyone 
who is more experienced with screen shots than I remind me how to do this?



Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: Alexa app and adding an account

[Alan Lemly]

Lelia,

I'm a bit confused by your post because you mention something about adding an 
account to an account which doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Are you trying 
to use the Alexa app to open a new account, add a device to an existing 
account, or something else? You're correct that the menu button which used to 
be in the upper left corner of the app appears to be gone but if you execute 
the More button which is at the far right of the bottomline toolbar, I believe 
the options which used to come up under menu now appear there.

Re: Alexa app and adding an account

[Richard Turner]

In the app, after activating More, then settings, this is what you get under 
Guest Connect.

GUEST CONNECT

Let friends and family connect their Alexa account to your compatible Echo 
devices for their music and news. After 24 hours, your guest will need to 
reconnect.

Allow

HOW TO USE

1. Ask your guest to say,
"Alexa, connect my account."
2. Alexa will ask for their phone number.
3. To disconnect a guest, say,
"Alexa, disconnect account."

To listen to your music and news when visiting
friends, go to Guest Connect in Your Profile.

Hey, Reggie!  Thanks for the encouragement.  They say it could take up to a 
week for our power to come back.  I am planning on putting in a claim to my 
house insurance company for the food I have lost in my fridge and freezer 
combination.  Anyway, take care and it was so nice of you to write!  At least 
the weather here has calmed down and it's lovely!

Hi Keeton,

I'm not sure about vpns for you but is there no BBc or related sports station 
available to you?

I'm surprised india blocks cricket as it's your biggest religion.

I've even spoken to some Indians here in new Zealand that support india over 
the nz black caps  which I was horrified to hear.

I'm sure people will have suggestions and I'll have a look from this end also.

Good luck.

Hi All,

There has been some discussion on pairing devices to the Orbit Writer. While I 
haven’t received my unit, it’s due any day now, I’ve been studying the manual 
and would like to offer a clarification that could easily be confusing. Let’s 
say you wish to pair a device to the Writer on Bluetooth Channel 2. You would 
activate the channel by pressing Space Left Arrow and Dot 2. Now, here’s what I 
believe can be confusing. The manual indicates that you should press the same 
key combination “to pair.”  This actually places the channel into Pairing Mode. 
You then have to use your device’s Bluetooth search function to actually 
connect the device. I realize the manual does describe that process. At first, 
I was confused because I’m accustomed to using the term Pairing Mode which the 
manual does not indicate in those words. Perhaps this is obvious to everyone 
else, but people who are new to pairing devices could be thrown off by this. I 
also realize that the biggest adjustment I will have is depending on haptic 
feedback for all Writer System events. I’ve never done this, I’ve always 
depended on a combination of speech and braille. So there will be a learning 
curve here.

Hi everyone,
Hope all of you are well despite this whole covid19 situation. I just have a 
question about the orbit writer. Is the orbit writer free for members of the 
talking library?
If so, how do you all request one?
Did any of you get the device when participating in the national convention?
I am considering getting one since I want a more portable braille display to 
always carry in my purse and keep up with reading braille.
I have the focus40 from freedom scientific even though it’s not the latest 
generation, but it works well for me.
 I mostly keep it at home since I use it with my Mac computer and it helps me 
still read braille.
What has been your experience with the orbit writer? And is their a difference 
between the orbit reader and orbit writer? If so, what is the difference?

I can be reached out at garcesp...@gmail.com

Best,

Priscilla

connect the device. I realize the manual does describe that process. At first, 
I was confused because I’m accustomed to using the term Pairing Mode which the 
manual does not indicate in those words. Perhaps this is obvious to everyone 
else, but people who are new to pairing devices could be thrown off by this. I 
also realize that the biggest adjustment I will have is depending on haptic 
feedback for all Writer System events. I’ve never done this, I’ve always 
depended on a combination of speech and braille. So there will be a learning 
curve here.

Yes, you have to use VoiceOver Braille settings to do the pairing.
It is seen as the Orbit Reader 20 with its serial number right now.
That may change in iOS 14, I hope.

Sandy, are you successful pairing then reconnecting more than one device?

 

My initial few thoughts on this experience are I loved the price point of the 
Braille Writer. I like using the center joystick to interact with my phone. The 
braille input though, isn’t thrilling me, and I am learning how much I liked 
the reading side of a braille display. I didn’t realize that.

Joshua, I just got mine yesterday. I think what we are experiencing here are 
the consequences of being early adopters.  To me, the proof of Orbit Research’s

Anyone else having issues? Fingers crossed, you have other ideas what may be

Re: Orbit Writer and Pairing Devices

[Richard Turner]

Simon,
If a keyboard is using the braille layout, IE, 6 dots, plus a backspace, which 
is considered dot 7, and an enter key, which is considered dot 8; it has to be 
paired as a braille device because it does not have the standard QWERTY keys.
You have to press 1 to 6 keys at the same time to make letters, and/or 
contractions, and computer braille uses all 8 dots.
So it has to be run by a screen reader.
A standard keyboard does not depend on a screen reader with braille translation 
tables.
I hope that helps.
In short, you have to know braille to use the keyboard.
If you are still wanting to read more, search for Orbit Writer documentation 
and you should find a link to the Orbit Research page.
If not, I or someone else can dig up the link for you.
HTH,




Richard

haven’t received my unit, it’s due any day now, I’ve been studying the manual 
and would like to offer a clarification that could easily be confusing. Let’s 
say you wish to pair a device to the Writer on Bluetooth Channel 2. You would 
activate the channel by pressing Space Left Arrow and Dot 2. Now, here’s what I 
believe can be confusing. The manual indicates that you should press the same 
key combination “to pair.”  This actually places the channel into Pairing Mode. 
You then have to use your device’s Bluetooth search function to actually 
connect the device. I realize the manual does describe that process. At first, 
I was confused because I’m accustomed to using the term Pairing Mode which the 
manual doe

Here you go Simon. The link below will take you to the documentation page where 
you could grab the manual in different formats.

Simon,
If a keyboard is using the braille layout, IE, 6 dots, plus a backspace, which 
is considered dot 7, and an enter key, which is considered dot 8; it has to be 
paired as a braille device because it does not have the standard QWERTY keys.
You have to press 1 to 6 keys at the same time to make letters, and/or 
contractions, and computer braille uses all 8 dots.
So it has to be run by a screen reader.
A standard keyboard does not depend on a screen reader with braille translation 
tables.
I hope that helps.
In short, you have to know braille to use the keyboard.
If you are still wanting to read more, search for Orbit Writer documentation 
and you should find a link to the Orbit Research page.
If not, I or someone else can dig up the link for you.
HTH,




Richard

Yes, you have to use VoiceOver Braille settings to do the pairing.
It is seen as the Orbit Reader 20 with its serial number right now.
That may change in iOS 14, I hope.

It’s my understanding that the manual states you go to voiceover braille to do 
the actual pairing and connecting.

Hi,

Is your understanding we pair the Orbit Writer under iPhone bluetooth, not 
VoiceOver Braille?

Thanks,
Traci

Hi Janet, 

The first control in control Center Settings is access Within Apps. If you turn 
that off by double-tapping it, you should be able to play your games without 
activating it.

Best,
