Re: Apps and Widgets

[John Panarese]

As a side note, apparently, you can also have widgets added to your Mac 
desktop from you iPhone. I have not experimented with this, but I read an 
article talking about it.

Hey, at least you got it all working. That’s the first big step. Just take 
your time now and be patient with the learning process. It’s not difficult if 
you put your mind and focus to it and take the process one step at a time.

Re: locked out of my macbook pro

[John Panarese]

If this was a work computer, you might be just better off wiping it and 
starting over, unless you have something important you need to get at. If you 
don’t have the recovery key saved anywhere, I’m not sure if Apple can help you. 
It’s usually on the user to save that key. I know it was a work system, but for 
the future, always choose the option to be able to recover your password with 
your Apple ID in case you forget the system password entirely.

Re: locked out of my macbook pro

[John Panarese]

   If you know your administrative account name, you can select that you forgot 
the password for the account. You don’t have to select that you forgot all of 
the passwords. Did you have the account associated with an Apple ID?

Re: locked out of my macbook pro

[John Panarese]

The recovery HD is completely accessible to VoiceOver. Once you press and 
hold command-r for about thirty seconds, wait a bit longer and start VoiceOver 
with Command-F5.

This is a very comprehensive Apple Support article, but, hopefully, it can 
be followed. There are instructions for both Apple Silicon Macs and Intel.

Re: Word count on the Mac

[John Panarese]

Instead of interacting with the document layout area and the body of the 
text, use VO-shift-up arrow until you cannot stop interacting with anything. At 
that point. Use VO-left arrow to locate the popup menu with the word count. You 
can then VO-space on it to find additional information about the word count and 
character count, etc.

Re: Word count on the Mac

[John Panarese]

  Have you tried totally uninteracting with the text and using VO-left or right 
arrow. There is a popup menu with the word count that, if activated, will show 
you additional text info.

Re: We Deserve Better from Apple Why I Can No Longer Recommend a Mac to Fellow Blind Computer Users.

[John Panarese]

Google Chrome, Brave and Firefox are alternative browsers to Safari on the 
Mac. In addition Safari in Sonoma seems to work with better results on two 
different machines of mine compared to Ventura. 

There is an old expression about people and opinions that I’m sure some 
folks are familiar with. In thirty or so years in this industry, I wish I had a 
dollar for every negative review and voiced criticism of a piece of software, 
hardware, operating system etc. I’d have retired by now …

Re: battery life of the 15 pro

[John Panarese]

It depends on my daily usage, but usually over 60 percent most days if not 
70.
 If I am using it a lot for calls and streaming, it was at 50 or so. I think 
the first day I had it the percentage was at 42 when I went to bed, but I 
wasn’t paying attention as to where it started when I set it up earlier that 
day.

Re: battery life of the 15 pro

[John Panarese]

   Honestly, 
I say this knocking on wood, but it’s longer than even the 14 Pro. Not a 
considerable difference, but even with some extensive use, my battery level at 
the end of the day is at least 10 to 15 percent higher than it was with the 14 
Pro. I will have to pay more attention, but I can say that after a week of 
using the 15 Pro.

Re: Please tell me how I put pictures in the main body of the email.

[John Panarese]

I’m not sure what you are asking here. If the photos are in a text message, 
double tap on each image. There will be a Share option on the next screen. 
Choose, Mail, from there to attach the photo to an email message. This is, if I 
am understanding you correctly.

Accessible GPS apps and bread crumbs

[John Panarese]

Hi guys,
   I’m trying to find an accessible GPS application for the iPhone that will 
offer really easy to use bread crumb features for an older gentleman who is not 
really tech savvy. He lives on a farm that is approximately 60 acres in size. 
He needs an app in which he can navigate between specific landmarks on his 
property and be given directions or indicators if he wanders astray. This would 
be, for example, reaching a water tower from his house or finding his way back 
to his house from another part of his property.

If anyone can suggest a specific app that will fit the bill, please let me 
know. Also, if one can give pointers that I can pass along to the person, I’d 
appreciate that as well.

Re: Mute Switch Always Says "Unmuted"

  I haven’t been able to follow this thread closely, but I wonder if it is

Re: Mute Switch Always Says "Unmuted"

[John Panarese]

  I’m using a 14 Pro with the latest iOS 16 version and I am not experiencing 
this. VoiceOver says, muted, Or, unmuted, when I move the mute switch to either 
position.

Re: No Function Key

[John Panarese]

Yes, the function key is usually the furthest on the left at the bottom of the 
keyboard. If it is a full-size keyboard with the numeric keypad, you're going 
to find it where the insert key would be on a PC keyboard in the six pack.

Re: Deleting drafts in Mail app

[John Panarese]

  You might have to put a subject into the subject field or type something into 
the message body as well as sending it to yourself. This has worked for me 
consistently. It seems that just editing the to field isn’t always enough.

 I setup notifications on my DoorDash app, so I get notified at each

Re: Update on Airpods Order

[John Panarese]

The AirPods Pros have a charging case you can either directly connect or use 
wireless charging for. The AirPod Max is connected by a charging cable to one 
of the headphones.

Re: Keynote help?

[John Panarese]

Hi Jennifer,
  In theory, you should be able to use Power Point to edit a presentation once 
it’s imported from KeyNote. Again, I say, in theory, because I have not done it 
personally.

   Here is an Apple support link that others and myself have found useful:

Re: Question about update

[John Panarese]

  It’s done through Finder. When you connect the iPhone to your Mac, you will 
first have to indicate to trust the Mac on the iPhone side and vice versa. 
Then, in the Finder Sidebar under Devices, you will see all of the iPhone 
settings like you did in iTunes. You can update from there.

Re: Just received an iPod Touch 7 and no wall cube

[John Panarese]

   I don’t believe mine had the cube either in the box. I think it only came 
with the USB cable.

Re: setting up team viewer on the mac to use with AIRA

[John Panarese]

   You typically have to unlock preferences to give an app permission to use a 
specific MacOS feature. Normally, there is a table with the apps and a checkbox 
with the app that you can uncheck if you decide at any point that you don’t 
want to allow that app to sue that feature any longer. I have Zoom and a few 
other apps listed with Screen recording, and they all have checkboxes 
associated with them.

Re: Any opinions on the Airpods versus the Airpods Pro?

[John Panarese]

   You might need to look at the different tips that can be changed. I had this 
problem at first too until I figured out that one can change the tis that 
insert into your ears. That made a difference for me, at least. I have only had 
one fall out if I accidentally pop them out with a hand when I am wiping sweat 
from my forehead or I’m reaching for something over my head.

   I agree with all the points. I can’t say enough great things about the 
AirPod Pros. I loved the original ones. Don’t get me wrong. The Pros are just 
leaps and bounds better.

Re: Door dash

[John Panarese]

 There wouldn’t be an add to cart. You add to order and then it will verify 
your total order. There will eventually be a screen that will enable you to 
place the order. I just did this with a local pizza place and ordered three 
meals for my family.

Re: recovering a note that was just deleted

[John Panarese]

   There should be a recently deleted folder when you double tap on the, 
folders Mac, button. I think that keeps notes up to 30 days that were deleted. 
I’m not sure if there are any specific requirements for this folder to show, 
though.

Re: Mac Question

[John Panarese]

   You have to turn it on for it to work  in the login window. In System 
preferences, go to Users and Groups. Select, login options, from the list of 
users at the bottom of the list, and then unlock the preferences. Near the 
middle of the login option pane, you’ll find an, Accessibility, button. There 
is a table on that screen in which you can enable the various accessibility 
options at the login window. Just select, VoiceOver, and check the box to have 
it available for you.

   VoiceOver settings under the rotor allows you to select or deselect anything

  I’m not sure what you are experiencing. You might be holding too long on the

Re: Can I use purchased ringtones from the iTunes Store for email or just for text tone and ringtone

[John Panarese]

  Ok. So what I did is this:

1. I opened Settings
2. I selected, Mail.
3. I selected the Notifications near the top of the screen.

4. I have several accounts, so I selected one of the accounts.
5. It should have a default sound. Double tap on that and you should see a 
collection of text tones and ringtones as selections. I am seeing ones I have 
bought and ones I collected from various sources. Note that these are both 
textures and ringtones.

Re: Can I use purchased ringtones from the iTunes Store for email or just for text tone and ringtone

[John Panarese]

   As far as I am aware, they should be available to you. I have a lot of 
different texttones and ringtones I’ve either purchased or collected, and they 
are available as sound options for mail. You might have to look around on the 
screen as I believe they might be organized by Apple defaults and 
purchased/collected. I’ll try to take a look if you continue to have problems 
locating them.

Mac for the Blind Online Courses

[John Panarese]

Hello everyone,
I am posting the below with the very kind permission of our moderator, 
Mark. I am Hoping to spread the word and get as many interested folks as 
possible in online courses I plan to conduct in the near future. However, 
please read the blow information and only respond by way of the contact form or 
direct email to me that are stated in the text below. Please do not post back 
to this list in regard to this matter. Please also understand that this is all 
in the planning stages, so your responses will certainly dictate and effect my 
final delivery and course selections as well as the times and dates.
I thank you for your attention and any inconvenience, especially if you are 
reading this more than once from other lists.




 I have mentioned here in the past that I was interested in pursuing 
holding online courses of various kinds in the future. I got a bit sidetracked 
and caught up in several other projects and tasks, but I have slowly been 
contemplating and pondering the subject as time has passed.

What I would like to do is first offer some free courses to help current 
users or potential users of the Mac and iDevices get themselves started or 
familiar with a lot of the basics in an easy, straight forward in systematic 
manner. With the current circumstances created by the COVID19 pandemic, I also 
think free courses would be helpful to many and appreciated as well. 

   Obviously, if this project gains interest, it will expand and include 
several intermediate and advanced areas of material regarding the Mac or 
iDevices. I have plenty of ideas and thoughts, but it will basically depend on 
the response from the community and the interest of users.

With that all said, let me present my ideas and thoughts as they stand now. 
Please do pass this information along to as many possibly interested people you 
know and share it with them all.

The How

 I plan to hold these courses in some kind of online or telephone manner. 
This will come down to what the general consensus of the interested people feel 
is best. I am looking at Free Conference Calls as one possible avenue, while 
other conferencing solutions, such as Zoom, has been suggested by many, along 
with a few others, including Microsoft Teams. 

The When

At the moment, I'd like to start doing something in May. Specifically, the 
weeks of the 11th or 18th are potential starting points. Again, though, this 
will depend on the number of people interested and their suggestions.

The What

 As far as the material I plan to present, here are some initial topics I 
would like to offer.

• An Introduction to your Mac and MacOS using VoiceOver
• VoiceOver Basics on the Mac: Interaction to Navigation
•Basic Web Browsing on the Mac with VoiceOver and Safari
• VoiceOver and applications on the Mac
•An Introduction to your iDevice and its potential using VoiceOver
•VoiceOver and iOS: Basic Gestures and the Item Rotor Explained
•VoiceOver and Applications in iOS: A Crash Course
• Your Apple Devices and Their Connectivity and Potential Power

What I need from You

Now, what I would like from those who are interested is to please respond 
to my ideas for the how, when and what options. You can do this by using the 
https://macfortheblind.com/contact-us
Link on  the main page
 or you can email me directly at,
j...@macfortheblind.com
 Please indicate in the subject that you are interested in attending the 
online courses. Also, please tell me the following:
•What conferencing method might be desired or felt to be the easiest for you to 
use?
•What days of the week and times of the day would be most convenient for you to 
attend an online course that would last between one hour and an hour and a half?
•Out of the topics listed above, please let me know which ones would be of the 
most interest to you.

Once I receive responses from the community, I will contact you directly 
with details and set up the initial course time and material. If I receive a 
mixture of suggestions, I will do my best to present multiple courses with the 
desired topics to accommodate as many folks as I possibly can.

I thank you in advance for your interest, and I hope that I will meet you 
online in the near future.

Re: Apple card payments

[John Panarese]

   You might have to call Apple from the card info screen. When you are looking 
at your card info, there is a, More, option. It used to be that there was an 
easy way to add options to how the card is paid. I only see bank accounts now. 
I know you can call customer service and present any questions or issues.

Re: Has Anyone Ordered From Little Caesars Pizza Before

[John Panarese]

   I think that’s the essence of some of the initial comments that are being 
missed by some. It’s not a matter of not wanting these apps to be accessible. I 
have been on a personal crusade for a long time to push getting applications 
accessible so that the blind have equal footing when it comes to accessing 
them. My point several messages ago is that I find simply calling in my orders 
is so much easier and faster. Yes, ordering online or through an app, even if 
it’s accessible, is time consuming and even frustrating in some instances. It 
takes me less than a minute to call in my order to one of the two pizza places 
still open around me, and I also have the luxury of easily calling them back if 
something is wrong with the order. That’s just the basic difference to me in my 
world. I’ve used all of the delivery apps with mixed success, so I am in no way 
saying that we, as the blind community, should not push for their accessibility.

Re: Has Anyone Ordered From Little Caesars Pizza Before

[John Panarese]

   Do people actually make calls any more to order food? I prefer to call and 
make orders verbally than use apps if possible. Speaking to a human and 
specifying items when it comes to multiple orders has been much more successful 
to me. Doordash and Grub Hub are fine, but I just had an issue with the order 
being incomplete with a local restaurant chain via Grub Hub.

Re: Locked out of Mac mini main screen

[John Panarese]

   Depending on his version of the operating system, you can try to restart the 
Mac in recovery mode. Hold the command and r keys together at startup and keep 
them down. You should be able to access the recovery HD. From there, select, 
terminal, from the utilities menu and use the

Utility to reset his password.

Re: Keyboard is locked!

[John Panarese]

   I’m assuming that, just like on a Mac, Control-option-semicolon locks the 
VoiceOver keys. I haven’t looked at VO settings on the iPhone in depth, but I 
am of the mind this is what you did.

I’ve been using the app for three or four years now and it is very 
accessible. It’s very easy to use and allows you to really keep a good handle 
on your cards and finances. The last time I checked and had to use it, the 
website was accessible.

Re: Question on Bose Noise Canceling 700 and iOS app

[John Panarese]

   The Connect app for Bose was not really that accessible when I last used it. 
I needed sighted help with it. I don’t know if there is a specific app for each 
headset, but I had the Connect app for a while when I was using Bosenoise 
canceling ear buds.

Re: copying ringtones to an iOS device from the Mac in Catalina

[John Panarese]

  Hmm. I’ll have to mess with this. In theory, if you do a VO-F6 and it 
indicates all of the selected items you have chosen are present, the drag and 
drop Should include all of the selected items.

Re: copying ringtones to an iOS device from the Mac in Catalina

[John Panarese]

  The one thing that might be missing here for multiple selections is, yes, 
VO-Command-enter is used for multiple selection, but you have to navigate to 
each file using the VO-arrow keys and then pressing VO-Command-Enter to select 
that item.

Re: AirPods Pro

Re: Question about charging the phone

   Connecting your phone to a computer is always going to be a much slower 
charge. I would plug it into the wall instead. It should only take an hour or 
two to fully recharge from a  low to completely dead state back up to 100 
percent.

Re: IOS 12 question

  It's still here on my iPhone 8. It's the last item under accessibility

Re: Moving files in iOS 12

  It's the same as iOS 11. You have to choose, edit mode, by swiping down with 
one finger. Then choose, drag app name. Go to where you want to move the app 
and swipe down with one finger to hear your options. Double tap on the one you 
wish.

Re: removing an app

[John Panarese]

   Provided you are running iOS 11:

1. Swipe down with one finger when you are on the app you want to delete and 
double tap with one finger when you hear, Editmode.
2. Swipe down with one finger again and when you hear, delete, double tap with 
one finger.
3. Confirm you want to delete the app in question.
4. Press the home button to get out of edit mode.

Re: My first Apple Watch – series 3

[John Panarese]

The easiest thing to do is choose a watch face that includes the battery 
indicator as a complication. I have done this with the modular watch face. 
Also, you can include any complication as an "auto speak" item. So, for 
example, when I tap the watch to get it to tell the time, I have it set to also 
announce the battery level as well.

Re: My first Apple Watch – series 3

[John Panarese]

Hello,
The notification center for the Apple Watch can easily be reached from the 
main screen by flicking up or down with one finger until you hear, 
notifications. Double tap with one finger and you'll be able to view all of 
your notifications. 

I have paired my Air Pods, though it wasn't as easily as it is made to 
sound to occur. You have to be sure your other Apple Devices are not in range 
or the Phone, for example, will offer the pairing request. In my case, after 
some effort, it just seemed that the watch suddenly started working with the 
Air Pods. I put the case against the watch, took the air pods  out of their 
case and put them on. They just started to work, but this happened after a good 
five or six attempts.

The OMKBWTABSUS bluetooth keyboard with VoiceOver

[John Panarese]

Does anyone know how well the OMKBWTABSUS bluetooth keyboard works with 
VoiceOver on an iPhone or an iPad. I have a client who is attempting to use 
one, but it seems some of the key combinations will not work. In particular, 
the control key doesn't seem to function as expected.

Re: Firefox on the Mac.

[John Panarese]

   It is accessible, but there are two specific issues. First, it can be 
sluggish with some sites with VoiceOver. Secondly, the rotor option with VO-u 
and general VO navigation doesn't always seem to register with all sites.

Re: iPhone X a disappointment? Here's what real people think, CNET

[John Panarese]

   I know, off the top of my head, seven people using the iPhone X, including 
my sister, brother in-law and cousin, and they all have told me they love it. A 
couple had to get used to the lack of a home button and complained about it the 
first few weeks, but it doesn't bother them any more.

Re: Making Siri work better for me

[John Panarese]

   Instead of saying, call "person name", try, dial "person name". I have had 
much more success.

   Also, for directions, I try to be specific. "give me directions to the 
closest IHOP to my current location" for example.

Re: Touch ID While Charging

[John Panarese]

If you read some articles out there, that is how they suggest you do it. 
Also, using the thumbs as your primary means for Touch ID is also recommended 
over other fingers. When setting up Touch ID, try to place your finger in 
different angles each time you place it. This gives you a much better chance of 
always being able to unlocking the phone when you use it.

Re: Apple Denies You the Choice

[John Panarese]

  I thought it only asks you a few times, but then goes away. I have a few 
clients who prefer not having touch ID or even a Passcode in use. That is their 
choice.

Re: IOS11 and moving apps not working

   As was also pointed out by someone else, you have to have a light touch on 
the double tap. If you do it too hard, you envoke the 3D touch response. It 
took me a few tries to get the hang of it.

Re: Siri is still pretty stupid

[John Panarese]

I've actually not noticed anything different in iOS 11 than iOS 10 with 
SIRI. Sometimes, she works brilliantly, and if you take the time to work with 
her and learn how to ask things, she does a fantastic job. In other instances, 
you get the imp version of SIRI who seems to decide that making you work for 
everything is a lot of fun. In cases like that, I have learned to either 
restart the phone or just find another way to get at what I want. I just used 
SIRI quite successfully to search for restaurant information and get directions 
for later today.
