I tried using BlueTooth BEATS earbuds, and that did not help either. Eventually, when I  began using my MFI hearing aid (which I hadn't been using when the power went off), VoiceOver would work without stopping.

Very often we have to reset all settings in order to tackle the problem we are 
facing on the phone. It is very tedious. In fact, most of the time the problems 
are related to the accessibility settings. Should Apple provide an option for 
us to just reset the accessibility setting? What do you think?

You can select the interval in which you want announcement and the voice the 
app uses.  This app works with iOS15 talks when the app is quit from the App 
Switcher and when the device is locked.
 
If you want the announcement and you have an Apple Watch then turn

Are there any apps that will connect to Dropbox, and that will let you stream 
full folders at a time, and even create playlists from those streams? Thanks so 
much.

Re: Another Weird Pronunciation Issue

2019-11-25 Thread Alvin Ng
Try read continuously the following text with us siri male and samantha voice.

Apple Seeds Third Beta of watchOS 6.1.1 to Developers
Apple today seeded the third beta of an upcoming watchOS 6.1.1 update to 
developers for testing purposes, one week after seeding the second beta and 
three weeks after releasing the watchOS 6.1 update.   Once the proper 
configuration profile has been installed from the Apple Developer Center, the 
new watchOS beta can be downloaded through the dedicated ‌‌Apple Watch Software 
Update. To install the update, the ‌‌‌Apple Watch‌‌‌ needs to have at least 
50 percent battery, it must be placed on the charger, and it has to be in range 
of the iPhone.   watchOS 6.1.1 appears to be a minor update focusing on 
performance improvements and bug fixes that weren't able to be addressed in 
watchOS 6.1.   No new features were found in the first two betas of watchOS 
6.1.1, but we'll update this article should new features be found in the third 
beta.  Related Roundups: Apple Watch, watchOS 6 Buyer's Guide: Apple Watch Buy

 I've not ever heard the issue with defeat with any voice, until I read back 
that sentence with Tom Enhanced. If you read the word by itself, it pronounces 
it correctly, but in a sentence it said defeeturing. Very stupid.
 GPS seems to be a new thing with various voices so I think it came with iOS 13.
You can go into the VoiceOver Speech, Pronunciations and add it in with the 
substitution G P S, and make sure it is set to all voices.
That fixed it for me; but it shouldn't have said it that way to begin with of 
course.

 Good fine Alan.
 That means it is not a Voice Dream Reader issue.
 I just checked and yes any superscript number is read as to the power of.
 I suspect in books where that is used, or the m-dash, iOS 13 is 
 pronouncing them differently.
 
  
 I switched to the British Siri Male voice on the language rotor and it did 
 not say to the power of on the memory numbers on the Apple Store.
 Also, when I switch to the Irish Siri voice even though the language is US 
 English, no to the power of.
 So, it is only with US voices.
 I'm going to send this to Winston with Voice Dream as well.

Re: A Fleksy Keyboard Tutorial

2016-01-17 Thread Alvin
I have changed the magic button to global bog it doesn't show up on the 
keyboard. There is a need for me to switch to the native Chinese keyboard. Any 
advise? 

On 17 Jan 2016, at 5:10 PM, Krister Ekstrom  wrote:

Hi,
This is a very good tutorial indeed. Please allow me to try to add some things 
that i’ve discovered:
1 to uninstall an extension you have to click on the area at the top of the 
screen where there are just clicks to be heard from VO, then look at the text 
that appears below that describes the extension. If you have chosen the right 
extension, swipe to the button that says ”remove” and press it. This removes 
your extension.
Unfortunately right now this is rather a hit or miss scenario but it works.

2 when opening the emoji keyboard for the first time, there’s a dialog 
explaining that you can change colors of the emoji. This dialog has to be 
removed before you can do things with your emoji keyboard. You remove this 
dialog by looking for an ”ok” button which you double tap.
3, on the ”more” screen there’s a button called ”languages” as was mentioned in 
the tutorial. This button or link pops up a dialog that lets you choose 
additional languages to download. I for example have Swedish and English as my 
languages.
At the top of the dialog is a list of the language(s) you already have 
installed and the one you’re currently using is highlighted. Below is a list of 
additional languages you can download.  Double click on the name of the 
language you want and a progress meter will appear showing how many percent of 
the language has been downloaded. When the download is complete, the language 
disappears from the list of downloadable languages and appears at the top of 
the dialog among the languages that are downloaded. Here you can choose whether 
you want to use that language by double clicking it, the language then becomes 
highlighted and is ready for use. Tip: if you have the full sized keyboard, the 
one with the spacebar on it, you can do a quick swipe left on the spacebar and 
the language will change on the fly. This change will stick until next time you 
swipe quickly on the space bar to switch languages.
Lastly, remember patience, patience, patience, there’s a learning curve 
involved with this app, so take your time learning it and don’t give up if it 
doesn’t work for you the first time.

Problems with iPhone 6 running ios 8.1

2014-11-08 Thread Alvin


Running window 7 and iTune 12. I am not able to sync my music library and tones 
to my 64GB iPhone 6 which is running iOS 8.1. Each time I sync, I hear the sync 
complete tone after a very short duration, but nothing sync to my phone. 
However, I am able to transfer purchases from phone to iTune. I also reset and 
erased the phone content and set it up as a new phone. Without putting any new 
items on my phone, nothing can be sync to the phone. 

Also, continuity does not work between my iPhone 5 and 6. Both have handoff 
enabled. 

Text message forwarding also not showing the code needed to enable the 
forwarding. 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Spotlight search after using siri

2012-09-23 Thread Alvin

Wonder if anyone can reproduce this problem. 

After using siri, I launched the spotlight search. I was not able to enter any 
test into the search field. The field is in editing mode. Pass thru gesture 
also won't work. At the end, I quit spotlight search and launched an app. 
Launched spotlight search again. This time I was able to enter the text. 

Thank you.

Re: Video storage puzzle

2012-08-25 Thread Alvin
choon Hwee

I turned off video backup in iCloud. I did a backup. I was told that the video 
will be deleted from the iCloud backup. The backup size was reduced by one gb. 
The strange thing is that when I turned back on the video backup, I was told 
that the next backup size will be one gb larger again. This it something I 
couldn't understand. Any idea? 

Thanks.

Video storage puzzle

2012-08-25 Thread Alvin
I have deleted all the video I have taken using the iPhone camera app. The 
total size of these video is about one GB. Now, there is no more video in my 
camera app. However, it still shown up in the iCloud backup. Also, the size of 
the video taken is also reflected in the usage statistics. How can I clear out 
the storage? 

Thank you. 

Alvin
