Re: PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO GET THINGS OFF MY PHONE
I had an unusual experience this evening. I was going to try and find the Money reader app, so, I tried to uninstall the old non-working version. first I tried deleting it from my phone. I double tapped and held, and it made the correct sound. I then flicked to delete, and double tapped that, but it wouldn't delete. Next, I tried deleting it from my iTunes Library, and got a dialog asking me if I was sure I wanted to delete the app from my iTunes Library. I hit yes, then it said the app could not be deleted from my phone, even though I deleted it from my Library. I synced it anyway, and sure enough, it was still there. totally weird! So went my adventures trying to get stuff off my phone.

Use F6 or multiple presses of the tab key to get to where Jaws says Apps table Treeview. Now you can arrow down through all your apps in iTunes and check or uncheck them. Those you check get synced to your phone and those that are not checked don't. If they were checked and you clear the checkmark they will get removed. When you are done tab to Apply or go to File, Devices and select Sync. If I want to remove multiple apps or put multiple apps back on my phone I find this much more efficient than deleting them from my phone one by one.

Re: All Football ap
did you ever select the choose tab? that would give you two choices, college, and pro. once you tapped either one, you had a button that opened a picker item, so you could choose which week's schedule you could read. you would flick up or down, to get to the desired week, then flick right, to see the scheduled games for that week. but mine is now fixed!

Re: All Football ap
yes, I hear that! I don't remember if I payed anything for mine or not, so, as you say, there may be two different versions of the same app. but since it's working as It should, I'm a happy camper again! - Original Message - From: Debbie Downey To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2014 1:34 PM Subject: RE: All Football ap Hmmm, I reinstalled mine and still don’t have anything that refers to week 1. I wonder if there are a couple of different versions of this app? I know I paid something for mine so it wasn’t the free one if there is a free one. It definitely is All Football Radio. The tabs that I have are: Team List and that is where you can select either professional or college; next is schedules and then more information is tab 3. I don’t see anything that refers to a picker; there is a table index where you can use the headings in the rotor to go through the alphabet to find the team you want or if you’re in the schedule tab you can do the same thing in the table index to move by date and then flick right until you find the game you want. The one thing I do notice is now that I’ve reinstalled the app I no longer get that alert sound with the unreadable message. So, as long as it works, it is fine with me.

Re: Curious if iPhones are totally useless if you are not on Wifi

I had heard from some people that 4G and LED are almost as good as wifi, but I have always noticed a lot of apps take forever to load if I am not on wifi or crap out. I was just coming home from the store and the bag my stuff was in ripped and I was so proud of myself as I thought I could FaceTime with my Mom to help me find everything as I was in no man’s land with no one around. I pressed the hold button to launch Siri said call Mom, and got what is your Mom’s name? Are you kidding me, yes, before today I have called my Mom, and she is listed on my iPhone as Mom, after three times of Siri asking what my Mom’s name was, I called her manually. Then I asked her to FaceTime and go figure even though I clicked answer FaceTime would not work and I was on LED. I thought FaceTime worked on LED now? Regardless of FaceTime the fact that apps take forever to load when not on Wifi and I am on ATT are others having an awful experience when not on Wifi? Eventually someone walked by and picked up my stuffs neither my foot sweep of the area nor my guide dog found anything.

I was under the presumption that Apple doesn't CHARGE for its Services so long as you have purchased its AppleCare, but I could be WRONG. If anyone knows, feel free to correct me. It's just a different policy between Microsoft Apple on whether or not to CHARGE for Technical Services (InPerson and/or TelePhone).

This morning, she said Apple had pushed through the ios 8 update on her phone, mine is still showing 7.12. Why would this be? She uses screen zoom on her phone, and is now having difficulty adapting to the new unwanted update. I am a voiceover user. To my mind I am not sure it is fair for Apple to insist that everyone load the new ios update. This may be an unfair comparison, but a couple of days ago on my PC, Microsoft pushed through an i.e. 11 update. I use Jaws 14, which does not work well with i.e. 11. I was able to call for free the Microsoft disability support line to walk through removing the update because they understood the negative effect on my screen reader. By comparison, apple charges for their tech support, which my wife does not have, and there is no going back to the previous ios version. I think I like Microsoft's corporate policy better. Thoughts?

Hello folks. I usually don't post on here much. However, I am very displeased with Apple. For a company that is very Reputable, I expect a lot more out of apple. I am extremely disappointed. I just might let them know this. First, when a person dials a number manually with voice-over, the numbers stick. I don't know if this is fixed in IOS 8.02 or not. Second, I use my blue tooth keyboard a lot. Now my key board does not type or activate items with Voice-over. I can navigate on the screen. But not type or activate items. On previous updates the issues mentioned above didn't exist. I took my iPhone to the Apple store and they couldn't figure out the issue. I am not mad at the technicians at the store. I am upset with the developers of Apple. They should know better. Also what's this crap of them updating the software and then having the cell phone service not working. If apple keeps this bull crap going on they will lose customer such as myself who have grown to love Apple products. I might email apple and let them know this. If Apple continues to do foolish things like this on their updates, then I will switch to a droid. What a sad day that would be.

I know what you're saying. I have labels all over my house for things that are not accessible, but I don't make my money washing cloths or cooking in my microwave. I know, that doesn't change the small percent of the population we are. I understand that. I also understand that there has been a steady decline in Apple's accessibility. I know this from talking to a lot of Mac users who are now deciding if it is time for them to go back to Windows. Again, I am mostly talking about people whose jobs depend on using their computer or device. Again, that doesn't change the percentage, it was very hard to read that list. There are those who try to brow beat companies into being accessible. I have often thought of them as just whining and crying, oh we poor blind people. AAnd that is what some of them do. Others, take a more coorperative approach. So there are extremes on either side. Some wait for apple to offer them the same magic sighted users have, while others try to convince the company to do a better job. This is what the beta team does. The beta team evidently had some very smart people who were blind on it. No, we still haven't changed the percentage of people who are blind in the world, but they put in a lot of work trying to help Apple develop a product that would work well for us. In other words, there needs to be some people in the blindness community that tries to work against the flow. You may call us impatient if you wish. You may think we don't understand what it is like to not have accessibility at our fingertips. I bet I am older than most everyone on this list. Try having to hire 80 readers in Graduate school who read books on my 12 reel to reel recorders. It took about as much time to organize the readers and the books as it did to read them. And we still haven't changed the percentage. We never will. But that doesn't mean we don't try to make things more equal. I don't believe there is any shame in that. So, let's not blame people who are pushing the envelope as being whiners and impatient. Some of those people have been the ones to get us where we are today.

The way people's perceptions change about what they can and cannot, will and will not, accommodate! Does anybody besides me remember the days of the bag phone? Certainly, size is something to be taken into consideration. But my experience is that people usually find a way to accommodate what they perceive as being important enough to have along with them. Who knows what will be put out to make it easier for one to carry a larger phone! I remember my school days of lugging around a typewriter, books, folders, etc. from class to class. From that point of reference, managing a bit larger phone is no big deal to me: a phone that substitutes for so many of the things i had to drag around all day. I'm not at all criticizing people who want to make their decision based on size; that's an individual choice. But I do have way too many serious issues in my life to deal with to spend much time worrying about the size of a phone. I'll take it or I'll leave it; I may express my opinion to Apple; ultimately I will express my opinion by what I buy or don't buy, and let others do the same. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

Pretty much, when you pick your team, the app shows you all radio stations carrying that game on both sides of the ball. Unless your team has an agreement not to stream outside of the area, this should do the trick. I'll find out for the next preseason game if the Chicago 'Bears have such an arrangement.

Because customer service often requests such information, I'm wondering if this will allow me to read serial numbers on electronic equipment such as a modem, DVR, radio, etc. Would be cool if this thing could read the little displays on washing machines, microwaves, stoves, etc. Kinda curious if this will allow for 2-page scans when scanning a book such as a novel or textbook.

Perform a two finger double tap to start dictation. Say something and then repeat the gesture to stop dictation. Now listen carefully to the speech volume. Which level is it at, Siri, or VO!

Make sure that the volume level is different for Siri and regular use. They each have their own level, so set them apart from each other. Now, locate and activate an edit field. Perform a two finger double tap to start dictation. Say something and then repeat the gesture to stop dictation. Now listen carefully to the speech volume. Which level is it at, Siri, or VO! If you want to force / turn off the mic, activate Siri and then dismiss it. You should notice that the volume returns to the VO level. It's not necessary to say anything to Siri when you activate and disable it.

Re: adding phone numbers to contacts from the recent tab
Yes, there certainly is. find the number you want to add, then flick right. You should see a button that says more information. Tap on this button, now, you will see several bits of information. flick right, until you see add to existing contact. then tap that. your contact list will come up. you then have to find the contact you want to add the number to. Either find the index, and flick up or down, until you come to the letter the name starts with, or just put it into the search field. once you have found the contact, then tap on the contact. It will populate one of the phone fields with the number you're wanting to add. You will probably want to change the label. E.G. home, mobile, fax, work, main, ETC. once you've done that, look for the done button, and tap that. this should close out the phone contacts, and it should be added. I always go back into my phone's contacts group, and make sure it did.. I just always like to be sure that it took. Maybe a biit much, but that's me.

Re: a message for Raul about the blu tooth keyboard you did the podcast on
I'm writing this message on that very keyboard! It's a great little keyboard! The keys are comfortable to use, and the size of keys on a normal keyboard. This is a light weight, but very well built keyboard. I'd like to thank Raul for doing that podcast! My laptop died, and I was trying to figure out how I was going to manage without a computerusing this keyboard, and my iPhone four, I've been able to browse the net, get through some of my more than 8 thousand messages, and find I'm constantly grabbing it, turning it on, and waiting a few seconds, and doing whatever I need to do. I would highly reccomend this keyboard as well, and at just over $35, it was in my budget, at a rather awkward time for me. Sent from my iPhone On Nov 8, 2012, at 8:00 PM, Raul A. Gallegos r...@raulgallegos.com wrote: Hi, first off, glad you gave it a listen. In case new users are reading this message, I did a podcast on the Amazon Basics Bluetooth keyboard. Look for it on my home page at http://raulgallegos.com. Now to answer your question. This was the keyboard I ended up with after trying out about 4 of them. In all fairness, the prior ones I tried were not current ones, meaning I haven't tried the Verbatim one which is mentioned quite frequently here. I also haven't tried the Freedom one which has been mentioned through the last couple of years. Nor have I tried some of the other ones which are popular on Amazon, like the Zagg Bluetooth keyboards. I have tried out the Apple Bluetooth keyboard and like it fine, however I wanted to try out one which was less expensive. Yes, I still use this keyboard, and yes, it's now my keyboard of choice. I have also tried out other smaller keyboards like the one which SpeedDots sells, but found that if I was going to go that small, I might as well use the onscreen keyboard since it provided me with the almost the same speed. I would highly recommend either the Amazon Basics one or the Apple one for someone who wants a full size keyboard. Keep in mind that the Apple one is more sturdy, but costs more. Keep in mind that although the Amazon one is about half the price, it's still a very nice alternative, and as long as you are not one to constantly drop things, it will work just fine. I have since purchased a Targus bag which is meant for tablets, and use it to store my keyboard, chargers, Bluetooth headphones, and few other iPhone accessories when I travel and this has worked out just fine in keeping my keyboard safe. I hope this answers your questions. Thanks. -- Raul A. Gallegos If you let a smile be your umbrella, then most likely your butt will get soaking wet.

RE: Seeking Advice on Digit-Eyes
Nancy, have you found that the cameras in the iPhone 4S and 5 makes a difference over the iPhone 4? I know the camera is more megapixels, so, I would think the larger ones would work better, but I don't think I've seen anything on list confirming this. Thanks. From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Nancy M Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2012 10:12 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Cc: wfgal...@charter.net Subject: Re: Seeking Advice on Digit-Eyes We've found that different solutions work for different people. And they even work differently for the same people under different circumstances. Like any purchase, you need to consider the cost and the benefit of the various solutions. It may help to understand what Digit-Eyes is intended to do. Most of the people here sound like they are thinking of it in the context of reading UPC labels. It does do this, but the purpose of Digit-Eyes is to help with labeling -- both creating your own (text or recordable QR code labels) and for reading those created by others (QR code and three barcodes: UPC, Code 3 of 9 and code 128). Some people use it for both labeling and reading; some for just reading UPCs. You can even buy the two functions separately if you want to. Our vision in creating Digit-Eyes was to create a tool that fit the following criteria: a) small (does anyone really like to use a device that is awkward or obtrusive -- particularly in public?) b) portable (AT isn't much use unless it is where you are, not in another room or left at home) c) robust and very reliable (AT equipment that isn't working or that is undependable is very frustrating) d) working (electronic devices that are out of battery are worthless) e) replaceable (if you lose your iPhone, when you synch up your new one, you'll find all your saved labels are restored from your backup) f) easy to learn and use (Digit-Eyes does require some practice -- like many things -- but it is generally very simple to use, just a matter of repetition) g) both inexpensive and powerful in terms of data (what good is it to have product identification system that can't identify your item? we have about 28 million UPC/EAN codes and the updates are both continuous and free. Most of the other solutions have about a 50% product identification rate; Digit-Eyes runs 95%+ in most countries and languages) h) very inexpensive in terms of supply (our target is 1 cent per label or less) i) very inexpensive in terms of acquisition (Our target was to have a product that anyone could easily afford and not have to save up or get a grant to buy. Begging for money isn't fun and our family has a LOT of things to do where $500 or $1000 would come in handy!) I think that in most cases, we did hit the design objectives. The tradeoffs are that you do need to learn to use the iPhone camera and if you are using it to read UPC codes, you need to learn about code placement and (like every other solution), it isn't for everyone. Some people read Braille, some don't. Some people like having a dog, some don't. Some people are very comfortable using JAWS, some are not. Here are a couple of things we've learned: a) a lot of people use the print-it-yourself labels and love them. b) a lot of people use the washable pre-printed labels, ditto. Oddly, we have as many positive comments from sighted spouses as from our intended user base. c) finding UPCs has become simpler because manufacturers are moving the labels from the sides to the bottoms of boxes d) the improvements in the Apple cameras are making it possible for us to analyze much larger image portions all at once, which means that finding codes and labels is easier e) about 1 in 50 customers needs help learning to use the camera and Skype is a great way to do this. Every time I (or one of our staff) works with someone over Skype, we learn stuff about how that app is used. I think if you get Digit-Eyes and learn to use it, that you'll like it (most people do); if it turns out that it is not for you, you can return it to Apple. Cordially, Nancy If you have an existing barcode scanner that attaches to your PC (like the Metrologic one), you can also now use the desktop version if you are so inclined: https://www.digit-eyes.com/cgi-bin/digiteyes.fcgi?action=quickScan On Tuesday, October 2, 2012 9:30:02 AM UTC-5, William F.

RE: my update did not go well!
I had done that several times. When all this happened, I was also in the middle of getting the latest version of iTunes. I finished that, and did the power button six times again, and finally, after a couple of minutes of high intensity tention on my part, the phone was recognized, and I was able to proceed with the restore. After a long while, it seemed to take forever, lots more high drama, my phone appears to be successfully updated, restored, and back to it's original state, with the possible acception of updating software. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2012 8:07 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: my update did not go well!
