Re: getting an iPad mini

2013-05-15 Thread Eric Caron
Lois,

Where did you see this price?  Best price I've seen was on Blind 
Bargains for $299.00.  I've never seen a new one for less.  I also plan to 
eventually get either a mini or full sized iPad but am waiting for a bit longer 
to see what news arrives next month.

RE: getting an iPad mini

2013-05-15 Thread Eric SS
Stretching the topic a bit, what is your feeling re: getting a mini now or
waiting until June, November, whenever for the potential new device. Then,
if the changes are only in the screen and possibly upgrading the processor,
would you think it worth waiting or is the current device sufficient for
Voiceover uses.

Thanks!

Eric

Re: good earbud headphones recommendation

No, they are definitely not noise cancellation, isolating your buds. You can 
hear outside sounds quite well. I often walk with them in with music turned 
down low.

Eric is right.  The Bose headset is very comfortable, an the audio
quality is excellent.  The bass isn't boomy, and the treble isn't
peaky.  The set comes with medium-sized covers already mounted and
includes small and large covers.  The little headphones do not
penetrate deeply into the ear canal.  The complete model number for
the in-line microphone and remote version is MIE2i.

They cost more, but in this case they are worth more. Those are the bows MIE-2. 
That version has the microphone and volume controls online, whereas the MIE are 
just earbuds. The version without the volume control and Mike are $99, and the 
other version are $129.

They sound great and fit perfect. They are small and lightweight and can be 
worn all day without realizing they are there. Also, Bose stands behind them, 
even if damage results from your own accident.

I am normally not a Bose fan. I think most of their products are overrated and 
overpriced. But, in this instance, I am happy to pay the extra price for the 
super high quality and comfort.

RE: Recording from the iPhone to the iPhone?

2013-05-13 Thread Eric SS
Sean sorry that I did not get back to you sooner.

I did not have luck trying to record something playing on the IPhone using a
recording app on that same IPhone. I tried several applications, but each
recording app would suspend what was playing as soon as they began
recording.

I guess you gathered what I was trying to do. I live in the Eastern time
zone and follow the Giants who play most of their games in the Western time.
So, it is past my bedtime when they start many games. I could replay the MLB
television feed, but the announcers (one of them) is horrible to listen to
and is not very descriptive for us nonvisual folks. I don't know why they
will not allow us to replay audio games.

I have tried recording off my ITouch to either a small Sony voice recorder
or Bookport Plus. But, as either of those do fine for recording and
playback, I do have to be awake to start the recording process. Then I get
the occasional game like last Friday night when the San Francisco feed was
horribly slow and kept dropping out throughout the game. It just happened to
be one of those nights I could not sleep and could have just listened to the
game live, but I really, really hoped to eventually fall asleep. By the way,
either the BP or Sony digital will record forever, so I do not have to worry
about stopping them.

Thanks again for the suggestion, and I'll try any other ideas you might
have. This just may be another price of living in the wrong place. Although,
I still like to think of myself as just being misplaced for a long, long
time -- 22 years now.

The best!

Eric

I've never tried this but, perhaps you can. Open up a recording app, start a
game & see if it records. I do know you can record skype calls this way but,
other audio I'm not sure. If it works for you, let me know please.

If you look through the Apple this podcasts you will find one version there. 
Although, it is barely listenable; barely informative.

I sure wish they would release and unfinished version, without the

Hi,

I've been trying out ship-rack for tracking packages, but one thing I
can't figure out is how to delete a package once it's been delivered.
I double-tap the dlete button, but nothing happens.  The only thing is
that a check-mark appears next to the package info, but I sure don't see
a way to actually delete the item.

Does anyone know of another good package tracking app?

Re: Reading Newspapers Efficiently Using iPhone Apps

Chuck, you can add to or edit a subscription list from within the newsline app. 
This is essentially the same thing as a favorites list.

Hi Craig,

I tried the Earl app, which works ok, but because it is voice
generated ,is a little too slow for me. Also you are limited on the
amount you can read without paying for a subscription, which seemed a
little over priced to me.

I just finished reading the New York  Times and the Chicago Tribune on
the NFB Newsline app, which is 100% free. It is very easy to navigate
papers and magazines. You can set up a favorite list, but this needs
to be done online and the TV guide needs to be set up over the phone,
which is a little weird, but Newsline  was originally a phone in
service.

Have your rotor set to Headings, and you can scan  the articles by
flicking through the titles. When you hear an article you want to
read, do a two finger swipe down.

I think NFB Newsline is only available in the US and you need to
register with NFB Newsline and give proof of disability.

If you are a BookShare member you can read the same NFB Newsline
papers with Read 2 Go. Go to Search, and then periodicals.
It works well, but not as well as the NFB app. Bookshare has an annual
fee of $50.

RE: Reading Newspapers Efficiently Using iPhone Apps

Craig, I highly recommend NFB NewsLine. You can access papers and magazines
either via their excellent app, Read to Go or Safari. I think for variety
and completeness of content and price, you cannot do any better.

Subject: Reading Newspapers Efficiently Using iPhone Apps

Greetings to the list.

I have just finished listening to Garth's fine iblindtech.com podcast on the
Earl newspaper reading app.  I am about to download the app and give it a
try.  The idea of reading newspapers on an iPhone prompts a
question:  Suppose you have several hours to spend reading newspapers and
several papers to read.  Which app will allow you to read the greatest
number of articles in the shortest amount of time?  I am excited by the
possibility of being able to emulate the process a sighted person goes
through when she or he reads a paper, and an app such as Earl might well
narrow the gap between the amount of information a blind person can absorb
in a given period compared with the amount a sighted person might absorb
during that same period.

Thank you for your thoughts.

Craig

Hi Paul,

I'm rather addicted to this game at the moment and it is working 
perfectly.  I only use Yatze and Farkle . 

I use a 4 s with the most recent update.

If you want to try playing agains me to see what happens my user name is VTEric.

I can't think of what else you could do other then deleting and reinstalling 
the app.

Oh, one other thing.  I'm using the no advertisement version.  this is the .99

Re: to Eric Carn, (sorry about your name) list recrorder full version

2013-04-25 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Keith,

I don't know a lot about updating apps or how they act when they are 
perhaps on your computer and not on your device.  I didn't know a app that was 
not on your device would show up in the updates.  I'm guessing you are seeing 
this in iTunes. 

I do know that if you purchased one of the List Recorder apps you can download 
that app again onto your device for no additional charge.  Just be sure you 
download the same one you originally purchased. So if you originally downloaded 
List Recorder and then did a in app purchase go ahead and do that again.  If 
you originally purchased List Recorder Full go ahead and download that one.  If 
the one you purchased was several versions ago that will make no difference and 
the cost is still free.  The app is a lot more advanced then when it first came 
out so if you have not used it in awhile you are in for a treat.  Just the 
ability to append and pre pend to recordings is a great feature.

Again be sure you understand that List Recorder and List Recorder Full are 
considered two different apps by the app store.

I hope this helps.

Eric Caron   



So my guess is that if you see a update for any app you should be able to 
download it for no additional cost.

Re: to Eric Carn, (sorry about your name) list recrorder full version

Hi Reggie,

List recorder and List Recorder Full are considered two different apps. 
 If you purchased List Recorder and then did the in app purchase then you can 
repeat those steps and you will not be charged a second time.
If you did not originally purchase the app called List Recorder Full and you 
now do that from the app store it is considered a different app and you will be 
charged.

So you definitely can get the List Recorder app back without paying again.  You 
just need to duplicate the process you originally used with the same app name.

I hope this helps.

Re: Seeking a memo app that will allow me to apend...

2013-04-24 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Bill,

I tried to send you a reply earlier but must have messed up as I did 
not see it posted.

I use List Recorder to record in the way you are describing.  It has 
append and even pre pend so you can add to the end or to the beginning of a 
existing recording.  You can keep doing this as much as you like.

I also like that the app is developed for voice over users.  You might also 
like the strong organizational capability as it is easy to use and easily 
modified to meet your needs.

I did look at dictabulus free but didn't look at the $17.00 app.  The free app 
seemed usable at first glance but then I started having trouble.  I noticed the 
paid app had a 5 star rating but the free one was 2.5. 

Anyway List Recorder full is $7.99 

I hope you find a good solution.

Hi Bill,

List Recorder is fully accessible and not only will let you append to 
the end of a recording but also append to the start of a recording.
The thing I like the most however is the amazing levels of organization you can 
easily create and modify with List Recorder.

Re: bluetooth headset and siri

2013-04-15 Thread Eric
My good bit of experience is that no Bluetooth yet is as good as wired 
microphone with Siri. The microphone is always the downside of Bluetooth. I 
have found sound quality as good as wired, but not microphone.

Ear buds Review

2013-04-12 Thread Eric SS
NuForce NE-600 M/Black

Note the spelling is N U Force not N E W

These are buds in the true sense. They are probably the smallest buds I have
seen. If you think of them as having three parts, the stem for the bud that
fits into the ear canal, a middle portion with the speakers and an outer
piece. Each of these sections are about equal in length with a total length
of about an inch. The buds are the simple round silicone with an outer
phalange that seals sound in and out, although they do not totally isolate
outside noise. They are furnished with small, medium and large sizes. The
sound driver section is probably the circumference of a large pencil and the
outer most section the size of a regular pencil eraser. They are metal
construction and feel as though they are solid metal but very light weight.

The cable is flat, which is said to help prevent tangling. On the left wire
there is a microphone and one button for controls. There is no volume
control. The instructions were very few, so I gather you can press and hold
to access Siri; press to answer or disconnect calls or play/stop music;
press twice to skip forward. That is all I have been able to accomplish thus
far. The cable connection is angled.

I must say these are nearly the best sounding ear buds I have tried.
Certainly for the price. They do not have the base of my Bose MIE2. I have
never really bought into the idea that speakers need to be burned in but I
am going to pay special attention to see if the quality changes as I use
these. Even though they are just the round silicone buds, they do stay in my
ear quite well, and that is a huge problem with most all buds I have tried.

I purchased from Amazon for $29. The M/Black refers to the color I got. I
know there was red, and maybe one other color. I do highly recommend these
as a second pair you might use in situations you are afraid to lose or
damage your best buds.

Let me know if I can be more clear about anything.

 For example, if you are in a list of E-mails or podcasts or whatever, if you

the three finger flick down to move up in the list by screen, you can double

Re: Fast Forward And Rewind With iTunes And iPhone 5

Hi Jessica,

I use the 15 second rewind and fast forward in the music app when 
listening to audio books.  if this is not showing up for you then you may need 
to press the Album Art button to get the additional controls.  I have not tried 
this recently but I think that also a double tap and hold on the forward and 
back buttons may result in a rewind or fast forward action.

I use List Recorder in the way you describe.  I make a item with a

Re: be safe app

2013-03-16 Thread Eric Oyen
I was reading about it on their information page. not sure that its completely 
voiceover compatible. there is also a pay version that offers extra 
functionality. If the app works with voiceover, it would make a good app for 
those of us that travel alone in unfamiliar territory.

Re: VizWiz?

2013-03-07 Thread Eric Caron
Viz Wiz has consistently worked for me to solve complicated visual problems.  
Example I wanted to hook up stereo speakers and needed to know which jacks on 
my receiver were red positive or black negative.  I took the picture of the 
back of the receiver and asked the question are the red connectors on the top 
or bottom.  In about 30 seconds I got my answer that the red ones were on top.  
Ive had success with many similar very specific questions.  I like Tap Tap See, 
but seldom do I just need to know what is in the picture.  Usually I need 
something more specific and Viz Wiz does that reliably for me.

If you are interested in the five-minute hourly update from NPR, another good

alternative, although this app is very nice.

Hi Raul. I do have the S-11. I am pretty sure I am going to return it, though, 
for the reasons I stated in my comparison earlier.

However, can you tell me what the little beaded like band is? It is about 5 
inches long and came in a sealed plastic bag. I have not had anybody eyeball 
the instructions for me, hence the question here.

All thanks!

RE: Most Excellent Bluetooth Ear Buds Anyone?

2013-02-14 Thread Eric SS
I ordered these after the few recommendations. Please allow me to express my
opinion such that I do not challenge others'. Many of the things we look for
in devices are subjective and can make or break an experience for one and
never be noticed by another.

I primarily contrast the Motorola S-11 with the Plantronics Backbeat
903/RUS. They both have the business that hangs around the ear and an arm
with the speakers and bud that go into the ear. I found the Motorola wanted
to go deeper into the ear canal and came with a tip with phalange to block
out sound and seal in base. This was especially noticeable when I removed
their tip and replaced it with another that did not try to seal the ear
canal. I lost considerable sound quality and volume.

The other major design difference is that Motorola uses a fixed length band
across the back of the head to hold the two ear pieces together and in
place. The Plantronics hang nearly independently on each ear with a cable
connecting them more for transmitting information and keeping the right and
left pieces secure in storage. I would say my head size is very average, but
the flexible band of the Motorola held the ear pieces too tight against my
head and ears for comfort. I could not find a way of extending the band, but
perhaps I missed it.

With regard to music quality, I give the nod to the Plantronics. Even
without the base boost, music of all types sounds clear and reproduced as
intended. The boost seems a bit much for the situations when I listen to
music, i.e., walking about or during short breaks in waiting rooms, etc.
Even for a long session of just listening to music, I think the boost is too
deep and so seldom use it.

I did not test the microphone. Here I have never found a truly good signal
as in telephone calls, but especially when using Siri or dictating. As that
is most important to me (dictating and Siri), I feel stuck between resigning
myself to cords getting in the way or limiting voice with bluetooth.

One last nod to Plantronics is in bluetooth lag. I have had many, many BT
devices and I realize this is a bother with almost all of them, but some
much worse than others. Price is certainly no guide, either. I would guess
the delay is twice as long for the Motorola as the Plantronics when entering
a key press when editing, for instance. Most distressing if you have to key
a lot, which you do, since you cannot rely on dictation or Siri.

I highly recommend you try the Plantronics 903/RUS. Amazon has them for
around $50. The RUS designation is the newer model. It does come with some
silly feature that allows you to "hear what is going on around you". It uses
a microphone to play sound through the earpieces, but the problem is you
have no idea which side of you, front or back, above or below, or how close
or far away the sound is. I cannot think of a good use for it.

Thanks for enduring the rambling. I hope I got something of some use to
someone.

Eric

My Plantronics 903 Bluetooth ear buds broke, and I am not sure they can be
repaired. So, I am in the market for something new.

I require stereo earbuds with the smallest possible footprint and wait.
Hopefully, they have good music sound, not necessarily excellent
stereophonic quality, but microphones seem to be the downfall of most
Bluetooth devices. I have found the best test of microphone ability is using
Siri.

I set my price limit at about $150, but less is always better!

IPhone 5 Case and Keyboard

2013-02-06 Thread Eric SS
I copied this from TechCrunch. I have not had anyone take a look at any
pictures for a better description and cannot add anything on how this would
perform as acase or keyboard/controller.

Ultra-Thin Magnetic Keyboard and Controller Won't Fatten Up Your IPhone 5
 Andrew Liszewski 
 The EX Hybrid Controller system isn't the first compact wireless keyboard
or gamepad designed to sidle up to the IPhone, but it might be the first
that's actually worth using. At just 2 millimeters thick they won't fatten
up your phone. And since the separate accessories attach via the magic of
magnets, both can be attached in either landscape or portrait orientations.

To actually connect either the EX Hybrid controller or keyboard to your
IPhone 5 you'll have to get used to your phone wearing a thin case that
provides a magnet-friendly backing. But it's not required. Either accessory
will still work with your phone when not connected because they're
self-powered and rely on a wireless Bluetooth connection. The case just
provides a convenient way to marry the two together.

And although they look far too thin to house a useful battery, both the
keyboard and controller are claimed to have as much as 40 hours of battery
life on a single one hour charge. Which is made all the more impressive
given the EX Hybrid kit, which includes the case, the keyboard, and the
controller, will set you back just $50.

Calendar possibly fixed?

2013-02-01 Thread Eric
I may not have enough experience or data to test this thoroughly, but it 
appears as though the calendar has been fixed. The issue was appointments were 
not reliably showing. I have been advancing one month and going back to the 
current month to be sure they were there, and it appears that no longer is 
necessary.

If anyone else notices this has been corrected, I would appreciate 
confirmation. All thanks!

Re: speeding up iTunes

2013-01-27 Thread Eric Caron
Hello Kristeen,

Sorry this response is so late.  Just catching up to list emails.  If 
you are talking about iTunes on the computer then there is no built in way to 
speed up play back.  However, it can be done.  Some time ago Esther posted 
directions on how to use a script that uses quick time player.  I followed her 
directions and now I have the ability to set up different speed increases and 
use them in iTunes play back.  I'm not good with scripts and need to learn how 
to use them over again every year or so.  Luckily once they are set up they 
just seem to keep working.  You may want to search the arcives on the 
macvisionary list if you are a member there.  perhaps someone stronger then me 
with script use can post the information for you.  But, it is possible.

On the iPhone you can find more controls and a speed up playback option is 
there.  I think I pressed the Album art button to see more controls.

Lastly the speeding up is not as good on other devices like the NLS book reader 
or the Victor Reader Stream so I don't use it as much as I would if the quality 
was better. 
 
If this would be of great help to you or others let me know off list or on and 
I'll try to find the post with directions.  This may take me some time to get 
back to you!

Re: Recording phone calls

2013-01-26 Thread Eric Caron

Using List Recorder in speaker mode I am able to record phone conversations.  I 
have used this to more easily get directions and phone numbers and such 
recorded.  To do this it is necessary to be first on the phone call then open 
list recorder and start a recording when in speaker phone mode.

List Recorder is designed from the ground up to work with Voice Over.  It is 
available in a full version for $7.99 or in a light version for .99.  The light 
version is then upgradeable for $7.99. 

This is a app I rely on more then almost any other.  It is a excellent 
recorder, a note taker, and allows for easy organization of contents.  It works 
with Drop box, email, and iTunes file sharing.  It also now lets you append and 
pre-pend to existing recordings.  The newest version also allows recording to 
continue when you demonstrate a app making it useful for recording podcasts of 
iOS app demonstrations

Checkmark Update

2013-01-23 Thread Eric
Based on response to questions here, I may be the only person using this app. 
It is an excellent replacement for the native Reminders app, however. There are 
some Siri and synchronizing issues, but it is much easier to Enter and review 
reminders in this application. Unfortunately, it is now back at the regular 
five dollars price.

However, my issue had been inability to delete entries, whether newly added or 
expired. I spoke with the developers yesterday and they told me how to delete 
an entry. It is reverse the normal process of double tap, hold, swipe to the 
right. In this app you swipe to the left. They say that swiping right invokes 
the snooze feature, but I am not sure that Actually works with voice over.

Other then the few minor issues, this is most excellent in my opinion because 
it puts reminders in chronological order, not the order you interred them. I 
have not found anyone who knows if you can rearrange Reminders in the native 
Reminders app so that they appear in chronological order and not the order you 
entered them. I think this is another huge swing and miss by Apple.

If anyone has questions, please ask and we will learn together.

Mailto:sseri...@gmail.com

The app is Checkmark, one word. I am sorry I have not been able to figure out 
how to link directly to the App Store.

Are you satisfied with your IPad Mini?

2013-01-20 Thread Eric SS
I would like opinions/experiences from those totally blind/Voiceover
dependent IPad Mini users.

If you have an IPhone too, do you have any regrets for purchasing the IPad?
I mean, do you find it really isn't useful. Or maybe it is most useful. So,
how and where?

For those with WIFI or WIFI plus cellular, do you wish you had gotten
cellular or do you find you don't really need cellular?

I have the IPhone 4S and an ITouch. I am wondering if I really want to
purchase a Mini. It seems the only advantage would be having one with
cellular. Otherwise, I am afraid I might just be burdening myself with a
larger ITouch.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Eric

Re: bought the Plantronics ear buds

2013-01-19 Thread Eric
I was talking about the Plantronics 903 headphones. They are available at 
Amazon for $47. The search Plantronics 903 brought them up.

I think they are most excellent for listening to voiceover and music. The 
microphone may be somewhat suspect but I find that is the case with all 
Bluetooth devices. The truest test seems to be does Siri recognize everything.

Shelley, think of them as glasses and wearing them in the reverse. The cord
goes behind your head. So, the curb part with the bud on it goes over your
ear and in front and then is placed into the year. That stem with the bud
will rotate and Extend so that you can set them to your comfort.

Any specific questions, give me a call: 296-9467

Re: List recorder recording volume

Hi Negoslav, 

In more recent versions of List Recorder the Tilt Gestures are off by 
default.  you will need to turn them on in settings to use them.

Re: List recorder recording volume

2013-01-17 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Sherrie,

  You can use the tilt forward gesture to go to the tool bar and the first 
button to b read is "Record New Item"  lift the phone back up  and a new 
recording will start.  So yes, the gesture can start the recording without any 
tapping.  You can also tilt the phone right and when you hear add item double 
tap and you will be in a new item and on the record button.

my preferred method to record quickly is to keep list recorder in my doc on the 
far left.  I open the app and then tap Record new item , which is also on the 
bottom left.  I'm then immediately making a recording. 

Hope this info helps.

Re: List recorder recording volume

2013-01-17 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Fanus,

No You can't increase the volume but you can increase the recording 
quality.  I think the default is 22 KHZ  you can up it to CD quality in the 
settings area.  That may give you the higher recording level you are asking 
about.  

Hope that helps.

The iPhone volume will not effect the recording.  

Glad you are enjoying List Recorder.  It is one of my most used and most useful

Re: Fleksy Question

2013-01-16 Thread Eric Caron
Bill and others,

I would like to do the in app purchase for Fleksy but cant figure out 
where it is.  When I first got Fleksy it started with a screen with a few 
options including instructions.  After playing with the app a little it no 
longer opened to that screen but now just starts and says tap once to start or 
something like that.  I checked Fleksy settings in the settings area of the 
phone and there is nothing I can do there.  In my current app I can't figure 
out how to get out of the typing mode. 

Sorry for such a strange question but I'm stumped.

Re: SPAM email, hacked email accounts and password safety

2013-01-14 Thread Eric Oyen
a lot of the password problem has to do with the power of modern systems. my 
machine here cn crack most passwords within 6 hours for most passwords of 12 ro 
20 characters. 

A big part of this capability has to do with a rainbow dictionary file. I spent 
about 5 days letting a password generator create every sequential password 
combination starting from 4 characters and proceeding through the 40 character 
limit. the passwords included every generatible character (15 symbols, 
punctuation, numbers, upper and lower case letters). the file was approximately 
1.5 TB. This is what most modern script kiddies (I refuse to honor them with 
the title hacker) uses. Some educated guesses (such as birthdate, sun, other 
personal info) can be made on available data (no one is immune to having an 
online profile these days). this will tend to cut down the time required. 
Still, the oldest (and most tried and true) method is still the classic social 
engineering. the second is hidden code (virii, worms, and trojans). With the 
plethora of vectors available, its a wonder that more doesn't happen. 

anyway, this my 2 cents worth.

Re: Bluetooth headset in church or no-interruptions environment?

2013-01-12 Thread Eric
I guess this would not work for those wearing a dress, but I run my headphones 
cord down through my shirt and into my pants pocket. I can then tuck my ear 
buds into my shirt collar and pull them out as needed. For more formal wear, I 
suppose this would  not work, though. How great is it to never have to dress 
formal!

Incorrect Weather Location

2013-01-11 Thread Eric
My new iTouch shows the wrong weather location in notifications. I have checked 
that my address is correct in the contact selected as representing me in 
settings. I cannot think where else to look to be sure to get the correct 
location. This is not even somewhere close to me, as currently it shows a 
difference of 20° in that location and my home.

All thanks for any suggestions!

Re: Recording, Or Taking Notes On, A Phone Call?

2013-01-06 Thread Eric Caron
Hi folks,

Currently I am able to use List Recorder to record a phone 
conversation. It only works in speaker phone mode but the quality is pretty 
good.  Here is what I do.

the phone call must be started first.
I then press the home key and go to List Recorder.
I then start a new recording.
Now the other person's voice is recorded as it comes out of the speaker and 
mine is recorded normally.  I find this useful when I need to remember 
information being given to me over the phone.

Hi Denise,

I recently spoke to the developer of List Recorder and the fix

Re: Free iPads for Christmas

2012-12-25 Thread Eric Oyen
its legit as far as it foes. its really an advertising gimmick. they get your 
data and then, low and behold, you find you didn't win after all (and they 
still have your name, email, and other particulars). 

frankly, my feeling is this: if anyone is gibing away something expensive, 
there is always a hook somewhere.

also, the site caused my browser to crash (they have some flash on there that 
appears to interfere with the action of my screenreader and browser 
combination) not worth the hassle.

Re: considering switching television provider and am curious about app/online accessibility

2012-12-24 Thread Eric
Supposedly, a T and T universe has accessible apps for the iPhone. I sure hope 
so! I am making the switch in a couple of days.

There is a podcast on the Apple viz. sight about the universe app, but I have 
not yet listened to it. A friend Has U-verse and indicated the app is 
accessible, but we did not go into detail how accessible and what he can access.

I can let you know more after Wednesday or Thursday.

Audio/Video News "Paper?

2012-12-23 Thread Eric
I am wondering about a news app that will play stories, but you can tap skip 
forward or back through them, as you might skim a newspaper.

Actually, my ultimate news service would only show me new news once. New 
stories would only show when events occurred or repeat stories only when 
substantially updated. It is frustrating and a waste of time to hear the hourly 
news over and over when perhaps only one story is new or much different at the 
end of the day as at the start.

Any ideas will be most appreciated. I seldom write just to thank people for the 
help you provide, but do know I am most grateful for all the information you 
share.

accessible dive log app

2012-12-21 Thread Eric Oyen
Greg,

I understand that you are the developer of the dive log app. I am looking to 
get my PADI certification and I am finding that without an accessible dive log 
app, getting such certification will be very difficult. to this end, I request 
that you take all available effort to make your application accessible. there 
are many of us blind divers out here and taking the effort to make your app 
accessible will only lend good public relations and greater profitability for 
your organization. 

since you are the first (and so far as I know) to hint that you might ake these 
changes, you would set the best example for others to follow (and earn some 
money and good public relations in the process). 

so, I request that you make the effort to make this application accessible as 
quickly as possible. 

who am I?
I am one of only 40 or so totally blind solo mountain bikers, and also enjoy 
other sporting activities that are not normally possible for the totally blind 
(such as skiing, glider flying, solo skydiving, and others). most of these 
activities I do with only minimal visual assistance or none at all (using the 
compass app on the iPhone and a reasonably accessible gps application like run 
keeper).  I am constantly being told that I cannot do the things I do because I 
am blind. because of this, I go out of my way to prove these naysayers wrong. 

so, I would greatly appreciate it if you would see your way clear to getting 
this request exercised as quickly as possible.

thanks

Re: Scuba diving and accessible dive logs

2012-12-20 Thread Eric Oyen
I happen to know about 15 blind scuba divers personally. that is just in the 
state of colorado alone. I know 4 here in phoenix (where I am vacationing 
currently). this is a lot more than a handful. 

all of these individuals point out one common cause that there aren't more of 
us in diving: attitudes on the part of instructors. another common complaint is 
accessibility.

there is one place here in arizona that will offer PADI rated instruction to 
blind scuba enthusiasts. its called aqua wet scuba. the cost is about $500 for 
the courses and certification. I haven't looked up anything for colorado. I 
happen to be interested in this activity mostly because someone told me that it 
would be impossible for me to do it. I am already a proven totally blind 
mountain biker, so scuba diving isn't beyond me (unrelated sports with similar 
difficulties).

Re: Do not download List Recorder 2.4.2 update

2012-12-20 Thread Eric Caron
Hello Listers,

There are two versions of List Recorder in the app store.  List 
Recorder Full version 2.2 has the newist updates and works correctly.  this can 
be updated or purchased as a new app.  this app is $7.99 and has the full 
features.

the other app is just called List Recorder.  this one is .99 cents and is a 
light version when first purchased.  after trying this version a in app 
purchase for $7.99 updates the app with the complete features.  It is this 
version that has a bug in the newest 2.4.2 release. 

the fix for this bug has all ready been submitted to Apple.  Unfortunately 
Apple may be closing soon for the Christmas holiday so it is possible that the 
update may not show up until after they open again.  If your device shows the 
List Recorder app please wait for the new virsion.  If your updating List 
Recorder Full you are good to update.


The new version will be 2.4.3.  
Time permitting I will soon do a podcast showing the newest changes to List 
Recorder.

Re: Scuba diving and accessible dive logs

2012-12-19 Thread Eric Oyen
accessible diving apps aren't the only apps that need to be made more 
accessible. the problem is that the developers are of the opinion that we don't 
matter. we need to make them understand (even if it means that we attack their 
revenue stream) that we are a non-trivial market segment and that, the blind, 
are participating in more of the same activities that everyone else does. 

I have already had some experience with a developer that wouldn't even listen 
to reason, even when his position violates US federal law (he's the developer 
of the smart crd system for the denver-rtd regional transit system. The person 
is so stubborn in his position that he has gone as far as trying to deactivate 
accessibility features on the denver-rtd.com website. It basically took a 
direct order from his boss before he would even come over to the colorado 
center for the blind to talk to us. I am still not certain he has recognized 
the error of his opinion.

anyway, we as a community, need to make these developers see that we are 
serious (even if it means that we have to cut off their funding to do so).

its the old adage: money doesn't talk… it SCREAMS at the top of its lungs.

Do not download List Recorder 2.4.2 update

2012-12-19 Thread Eric Caron
Dear Listers,

If you have not updated List Recorder Version 2.4.2 please do not  update.  The 
new version has a problem.  the developer is aware of the problem and is 
working on a fix.  There are currently two versions of list Recorder in the App 
Store.  the Original List Recorder and also List Recorder Full.  The apps 
should work the same but because beta testing was done on the Full version a 
problem with the other app was not detected.  Those people who updated the full 
version are not likely to discover a problem.

Again the developer is both working on a fix and also working on having the 
last version restored to the app store.  

I'll post again   if I receive any other updates concerning this.

In the mean time remember to back up your List Recorder data regularly and also 
of course the same is true for your phone in general.

Two Perplexing Calendar Issues

2012-12-18 Thread Eric
First, calendar events do not always show. I have two active calendars, and 
often times I will not see any schedule events. However, if I go to the month 
at the top of the calendar and go back and month and then forward to the 
current month, events will show up. I can look at and events details and then 
go back to month view and again will see no further events in the month, 
including the one I just reviewed. I have to again go back a month and forward 
to the current month to see events populate.

Second, I have somehow ended up with multiple entries of events. For instance, 
I have February 2 as ground hog day recorded 11 times. I am unable to erase any 
of these occurrences. I edit the event and delete it, including all future 
occurrences,. The iPhone seems to hang for quite some time before it will 
finally go back to operation, but all occurrences of that event are still there.

Any explanation of what could be going on or solutions will be most appreciated!

Re: accessible alternative apps for reminders, notes and birthday calenders?

2012-12-10 Thread Eric
A good replacement for reminders is checkmark, one word. It has some 
shortcomings, but makes it easier to enter items than the reminders app. I 
believe it is two dollars?

Re: Apps to help manage diabetes

2012-12-01 Thread Eric
I use this app, too. The only difficulty I have had with it is selecting the 
period. I find that I have to save all other information, look at the log, open 
the last entry, and then select my period and save again. It sounds more 
difficult than it is but it does require an extra step.

If anyone has a fix for this, it would be appreciated

Re: Sharing Calendar & Appointment Info

2012-11-28 Thread Eric
 I wonder if it has to do with which calendar you have selected. I am using the 
for S and do have this field. However, since the latest update, we can no 
longer determine which calendar is selected, other than to deselect all and 
select them back one by one.
