Re: Setting Up FitBit using VoiceOver

2018-04-12 Thread Katey Glass
Hello There,

I’ve recently upgraded from my One to a Charge 2.  Now, I do have some limited 
vision, and have been using one sort of Fitbit or another since 2014.  

I used a magnifier to read the code from my Charge 2 when setting it up.  And 
like others have said there are some buttons that are not accessible, However, 
the app is for the most part accessible.  

I almost got an Apple Watch, but it’s hard to come up with that kind of mone!  
Plus, I have a lot of other people that I’ve been in challenges with so, I’d 
miss that! 

HTH

Unfortunately the only language that does that is Samantha.  All the rest of

Re: Seeking Comments on Using the Jawbone Up 24 Fitness Tracker and Join Me In Requesting Greater VoiceOver Accessibility

2015-01-11 Thread Katey Glass
Hello Mark,

Unfortunately, I cannot help you with the JawBone Up app, as like your friend I 
decided to go with the FitBit Flex because I'd heard it was voiceOver 
accessible.  I've used my Flex since June of last year and love it.  

Hope someone else can advise you.

Re: New iPad Air 2

2015-01-01 Thread Katey Glass
Hello Todd, 

After 2 days of playing phone tag with Zack, we were able to have an 
interesting discussion last night.  It seems as if this is in fact a new bug in 
iOS 8!!!I would encourage you to let them know if you haven't already.  If 
you have you & I are a part of a small number of people who have reported this 
bug.  

I'm really impressed with the length Zack went to to replicate this bug!   I 
told him I thought it was a connection between Zoom & VoiceOver which only 
started after iOS 8.  As the two worked well and as expected in iOS 7.  I'd 
never updated my old iPad and don't use my iPhone 6 Plus in landscape mode so 
hadn't tried it until I noticed that the same thing happened on both devices.  

With this information Zack tried turning on zoom & Voiceover at home on his 
personal iPad that was running iOS 7 and it worked as it used to.  He then did 
the same thing on his wife's iPad running a later version of 7 and it worked as 
it should.  

He went back to work & tried it on a number of devices running iOS 8 and there 
was the dreaded problem!!!   With Zoom and VoiceOver the bug was there!  He 
then went to talk to some engineers who did the same thing on a number of 
devices and they all saw it!   

As I said I encourage you to report this bug!   He said a small number of 
people have reported it but because he cared enough about it and brought it to 
keep people's attention they are escalating the priority of this issue!!!   He 
also has said he'll be in touch with me in the future and he likes building 
relationships with people.   So he encouraged me to keep his information and 
report other issues to him.  He also told me I was excellent at isolating the 
issue.  As I said only a tiny number of people reported this, 37!   So 
normally this bug would be last on the list but it's being given priority since 
it worked so well before.  

Unfortunately for now those of us who use zoom & voiceover have to use them one 
at a time!   

Katey.

Funny you'd say that!   Zack called me back, he's going to work with me 
tomorrow to see if that's the problem.  He did agree that they have conflicting 
 jesters.  Plus he wants me to take pictures of my devices when the spotlight 
keyboard is on the side.

Re: New iPad Air 2

2014-12-28 Thread Katey Glass
I set up my iPad Air 
2 as a new device and when I only had VO running it allows me to swipe home 
pages in both landscape and portrait modes.   But as soon as I add Zoom and 
have it running with VO the odd behavior starts again where swiping only works 
in landscape mode.   I tested it on my iPhone 6+ and when I turned off zoom and 
only voiceover was running it worked perfectly!!!  So It appears to be a VO  & 
Zoom conflict.  I'm waiting for zack to call me back.  If he doesn't in a 
little bit I may call and let someone else help.  As I didn't get a case 
number.  

Any other VO & zoom users?   

Katey.

Re: New iPad Air 2

2014-12-28 Thread Katey Glass
Yes I am.  I reset all my accessibility settings and passcode & fingerprint 
then tried the 3 finger swipe only to see it was locked to landscape!   So 
somehow when I set my fingerprint is how it will be locked for use.  Right now 
I'm on the phone with apple Accessibility to see if they can reproduce the 
problem.  

Ad it seems as if it gets locked in the way the fingerprint was set in.

Re: New iPad Air 2

2014-12-28 Thread Katey Glass
Well, I did a reset of my settings and it solved part of my problem!   I can 
now use the 3 finger jesture to switch between home screens in landscape mode. 
It also let's me scroll web pages & email in landscape mode as well.  The only 
strange thing is the keyboard for spotlight view still shows up on the right 
sideways!!!  Both with VO on & off.  

All I need to do is reset all my settings back to how I like them but no data 
was lost!   Wonder if it would help some slightly odd behaviour I see on my 6+?

Re: New iPad Air 2

2014-12-27 Thread Katey Glass
I guess I'm the only one who's seen this behavior on the iPad after a restore?  
 Well, I also found the same thing happens when I turn my iPhone 6+ into 
landscape mode it acts the same way.  I may call Apple Accessability to see if 
they've heard of this.  

Btw when I was in an Apple Store I tried an iPad Air 2 in landscape mode and it 
acted fine.  Wonder if resetting all my settings would fix it.  Also I noticed  
when I try to use the spotlight search in landscape mode the keyboard is at the 
right side sideways like it's in portrait mode!!!   My fiancé's doesn't do 
this.  This happens weather voiceover is on or not.  

I also found I can't scroll in web pages in landscape mode.  Does anyone have 
any suggestions as to why this is happening?   Any suggestions would be 
appreciated.  

Katey.

New iPad Air 2

2014-12-26 Thread Katey Glass
Good evening, 

I just got a new iPad Air 2 and did a restore from my 3rd Gen iPad now when I 
put it into landscape mode I cannot do a 3 finger swipe between pages or a 3 
finger swipe up and down my email list.   However when it's in portrait mode 
the. 3 finger swipe does what t should.  

Is this because I hadn't updated my 3 rd gen iPad? Or some other corruption 
from my iCloud backup??? 

Many thanks,

Re: 6+

2014-12-08 Thread Katey Glass
Good Evening,

My fiance and I just upgraded this weekend from iPhone 5s's to the 6 Plus.  
Right now we are "getting used" to the phones.  I really haven't talked on the 
phone without using a headset, he has, he thinks it feels weird.  

I like the size as I am a VO user primarily but can use my vision and zoom on 
occation so I do like that!  However, I'm not sure about the size overall.  It 
doesn't fit in my pockets like my smaller phone, I know "duh!" but I guess I 
didn't realize how BIG it really is.  

Perhapse, the case I have is also adding some bulk, as it's a "wallet" style so 
I ordered a TPU case which is similar to my old one on my 5s.  We'll see.  

Plus I'm still getting used to the overall size!  How long does it take to get 
used to that?  

We are both thinking of maybe going to the 6.  Gee, I would have never thought 
I'd have thought the phone would be too big!

Re: notification center

2014-11-29 Thread Katey Glass
A rare bug indeed!  I  guess its not worth my trying to reset all settings if 
it may not fix it.  I guess what I'll do is continue to clear the Notification 
center with my vision and a magnifier.  I'll write to apple accessibility as I 
realize this is not the optimal solution and not one a totally blind person 
could use.  

As stated my phone was able to do this prior to iOS 8.1 which is when I updated 
my iPhone 5s.

Re: Intermittent problems with Speaking Notifications on the locked screen

2014-11-04 Thread Katey Glass
I have to agree, I have my iPhone 5s to not read lock screen and it does 
occasionally.  This is quite annoying as when on iOS 7.1.2 all it said was One 
Notification (or how many were on the lock screen when the new notification 
came in.  

I do not want my phone reading my lock screen, I did wait to update to iOS 8.1 
as I knew that there were lots more problems with iOS 8.0.  

Does anyone know of a fix, other than muting speech or turning off voice over?

Re: Having both the high-quality voice and Alex in iOS eight

2014-10-26 Thread Katey Glass
I was able to switch Alex and Samantha, Samantha is my default and Alex is in 
the rotor. Now my incoming messages are not read out on the lock screen, it 
only says "incoming message" as it  did on iOS 7.1.2 and on my iPad.  So I 
guess switching Alex and Samantha had an effect, unless they are read out 
randomly.  

Thanks,

iOS 8.1 and 3rd Gen IPad

2014-10-25 Thread Katey Glass
Good Evening,

I was wondering if updating a 3rd Gen IPad was OK?  I just did my iPhone 5s and 
so far am liking it, only bug that seems to be is that despite my setting being 
correct to not read alerts in the lock screen, they are.  

I wonder if this has something to do with the fact I downloaded Alex?  Also, 
should he be my default voice?  It appears that I cannot have Samantha as my 
default and Alex in the rotor, He has to be the default.  I wish Samantha could 
be the default and Alex be one of my choices in the rotor.

Looking forward to your thoughts.  

Katey

I finally updated my to 8.1

2014-10-25 Thread Katey Glass
Good Afternoon,

I wanted to let everyone know I finally updated my iPhone 5s to iOS 8.1.  I 
have a question, before the update my incoming messages and texts didn't read 
them outloud on the lock screen.  Now they are reading them out.  

Under General, Accessibility is there a setting that got changed some place?  I 
seem to remember a way to totally take them off the lock screen that is 
visually) which will only play a sound and I may have to revert to this as I do 
not want my messages read out for all to hear.  

Also, has anyone updated an iPad 3rd Generation to iOS 8.1?  If so, how's it 
doing?  I'm currently running 7.1.2 and its running fine.  

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Re: Bluetooth Headset Profiles?

2014-10-24 Thread Katey Glass
I had the 700's and 750's and both are just as responsive.  I tried the 730's 
and they were just awful!  I wound up giving them to my fiance who's a 
non-voice over user.  

These headphones LG HBS 750 can be purchased on Amazon.  We got them from 
Verizon locally so I'd guess you can pick them up at any local place, in fact I 
saw them at Radio Shack as well.  I'm very glad that LG fixed what ever it 
broke in the 730's which caused it to not work right with VO, but then again 
I'd read reviews of sighted people who had problems while listening to 
streaming music when it would cut in and out between songs, but Mike never 
complained of this!

Re: Using iTunes to update will take far less space

2014-09-18 Thread Katey Glass
Last night while I was sleeping and my iPhone 5S was plugged in and connected 
to wifi the new iOS was pushed to the phone. I haven't updated yet as I'm 
waiting to see when the bugs are squashed.  

Interestingly though my iPad 3 Gen was also plugged in and on the wifi but no 
push!  I think my fiance's iPad got the push as didhis iPhone.  

Weird.

Re: Is anyone using any fitness tracking wrist bands?

2014-08-22 Thread Katey Glass
Hello,

The fitbit connects to your phone, iPad or computer via bluetooth.  You can set 
up to 5 different alarms.  

I love my flex and hope to get the aria scale eventually.  Right now I'm using 
a standard digital scale and reading the weight with my monocular.

Re: FitBit and External Equipment for Newby

2014-08-13 Thread Katey Glass
Good Evening all,

I have a fitbit flex and always have it on my wrist, except for when I shower.  
I've read that it can sometimes interprit an arm movement for a step, but I 
think overall it's been accurate for me.  I like how it encourages me to keep 
moving and many days I get over 10,000 steps in.  

At the moment I don't have the Aria scale, but hoping to get it in the future, 
at the moment I've been using a digital scale and reading the number with my 
monocular (I do have some useable vision) and manually entering it into my app. 
I have an app on my phone called Weight record that displays my body fat and 
BMI I'm sure it's not as accurate as the Aria scale and probably works by using 
some mathmetical equation but the app was free-- LOL.  

I enjoy walking and doing workouts from Leslie Sansone.  I find they really get 
me sweating and I've lost over 20 pounds since March of this year.  

Katey 

PS I got my Flex around June 15th of this year.

I use the fitbit app and the flex and yes the app is very accessible.  I've had 
it for 2 weeks.  What do you want to know?  I find it motivating to see how 
active I really am especially since I'm trying to lose weight.

Re: Importing BookShare Books from Read To Go into Voice Dream

2014-06-01 Thread Katey Glass
Did you all know that you can change the amount of time that BookShare will 
show history?  I think by default it's only 30 days but there is a calendar 
where you can change how far back BS will display your download history.  I 
know as I use VDR and have looked quite far back in my history before.

Re: Battery draining

2014-03-16 Thread Katey Glass


Good Afternoon All,

I just wanted to let you know that this location services "bug" of staying on 
constantly doesn't just effect us VoiceOver users.  In fact, It hadn't affected 
me (a VO user) but did affect my fiance who's not a VO user.  

I first went to Privacy> Location services (I turned on VO to do this BTW)

I noticed that not only was FourSquare on, but it said it was currently using 
his current location despite the fact it wasn't in his app switcher.  So I 
turned off the phone and back on and location services was still in the status 
line.  

I did a hard boot, holding the power button & the home button to no avail.  

So I googled location services constantly running and found the following forum

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5984935

There it told me to go to the following:

You can either turn off background refresh of GPS altogether or turn off the 
individual apps that use GPS all the time like google maps, Foursquare, or 
Facebook. They will still be able to use GPS when you open them, but will not 
keep the GPS running in the background when the app is closed.
For some reason, after I updated to 7.1, this was activated and had all the 
apps updating in the background even when they were closed.
 
Now I have no problems. GPS and location services only open when I open the 
associated app.

This seems to fix it, I turned off FourSquare as directed above and suddenly 
the location services icon only shows up when FourSquare is launched as it does 
on my phone, but when FS is taken out of the app switcher the location Services 
goes off in the status line.  

Both my fiance and I have iPhone 5s and are both running iOS 7.1.  

I hope this helps someone out there.

 I turned off all background refresh. It looks like location services gets

 Also, it looks as though this is only happening to people running VO. None 
 of my sighted friends are having the battery drain problem.

Re: deleting voicemails on the iphone 5

2014-02-15 Thread Katey Glass
I've seen this as well, especially when I want to delete voice mails entirely 
from my iPhone 5s.  I'll delete them, and then do a mass delete all, only to 
have them come back the next time I go into voice mail.  Maybe not all of the 
ones I've deleted, but some. So, I again delete them and eventually they all 
go.  

If it matters I'm using an iPhone 5s, running iOS 7.0.4 on the AT&T network.

Re: LG HBS730 Headphones, Do They Work With IOS 7?

2014-01-05 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

Sorry for the delayed response, I was able to test the LG HBS730 today on my 
iPhone 5s running both iOS 7.0.3 and then I upgraded to iOS 7.0.4 and while the 
delays I experienced under iOS 6 (latest version) on my 4s weren't as bad, it's 
still not as responsive as the LG HBS 700's.  I'm not sure what LG did 
differently between the two devices, besides add voice prompts and I believe 
that it's Bluetooth 3.0.  

So, as a VoiceOver user we still have to get the LG HBS 700 as they work with 
VoiceOver with no lag or should I say barely noticeable lags.  I had hoped that 
iOS 7 would have fixed this but it doesn't appear to have.  Also, as I said it 
lags badly on a 5s so the hardware didn't make a difference either.  

I have a few other bluetooth speakers and none of them have a lagging problem 
with VoiceOver either.  So... I'm not sure why the 730's do.

Re: Movie reading web site

2014-01-04 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

I have to say I missed Philomena when it was in the theaters unfortunately!  I 
agree that I do wish they'd make more movies available to us, even if they were 
an in app purchase.  

For full disclosure, I'm a partial, and for years I've sat close to the screen 
when I went to the movie theater and relied on friends or my fiance to describe 
to me what was happening on the screen.  Well, on Christmas Day my fiance and I 
went to see "The Best Man Holiday" at a local theater (a Regal Cinema) and I 
asked for the discriptive audio device.  We sat where we usually do and do you 
know what I discovered?  I discovered how much visually I missed in the movies! 
 Like facial expressions and small subtle movements.  Of course there was a 
part where they described when a character looked at various headlines and in 
the past I'd have to ask my fiance what they said and they were read to me!  I 
felt like I got a fuller appreciation for the entire movie.  I also realized 
that us partials really do miss a lot visually!  

Sorry for the off topic, comments.  I agree that I hope they do make more 
tracks, even TV show tracks available thru MovieReader.

Re: LG HBS730 Headphones, Do They Work With IOS 7?

2013-12-30 Thread Katey Glass
Hi Arnold,

I'm just bumping this up as I'm interested in knowing if anyone has tried these 
under iOS 7.  If not, I'll try as my fiance has the 730's I'll ask him if he 
notices any dropouts, though he's ssighted.  If he doesn't I'll turn on VO on 
his phone and try for myself by turning on VO on his 5s.

Re: No Cursor Tracking in Zoom IOS 7

2013-12-14 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

I'm another low vision user, and as long as I've had my iPad, which is a 3rd 
gen Zoom has never tracked VO unfortunately  in my own experience.  So, I'm a 
VO only typist.  I'm primarily a VO user but do sometimes use Zoom alone.

Re: The Fleksy update is in the app store.

2013-12-01 Thread Katey Glass
before I report this as a bug, can anyone else successfully use the copy and 
paste option on fleksey?  I can set up and use favorites and post to facebook, 
but when I try to copy and paste to a person not in my favorites then it 
doesn't paste what I typed despite the fact it took the text out of the typing 
field in fleksey.  

If this matters I'm using an iPhone 5s on 7.0.3.  I know I haven't updated to 
7.0.4 yet!  LOL

does it fix the fact that the screen locks while you are typing using it? This

Re: Voiceover volume bug present in new iPad mini retina

2013-11-27 Thread Katey Glass
Melissa,

Yes, you can set this by doing the following.  This bug is present on iphone 5s 
as well.  May I also suggest you call Apple Accessibility and report the 
problem.  The more people that tell them the more likely they will fix this 
problem.  

In the meantime, here's what you do to fix it:
Go to Settings
General
scroll down to reset and tap on that
reset all settings - note this will not earase any of your apps, music or other 
media content.  

What this will do is reset all settings such as wi-fi settings and VO settings 
(sadly) but it will also re-set the VO volume.  Now Go to the VO setting and 
rotor and take Volume out of the rotor so you don't accedently get it stuck 
again.  

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

Re: New Iphone's 5S with questions

2013-11-27 Thread Katey Glass
Hello,

I had this happen to me a few weeks ago, I upgraded from a 4s to a 5s and the 
first week it acted as my 4s did when a text would come in, it would say the 
time and the number of allerts.  Then for no real reason it started reading my 
entire text message out!  Like you all I was not ammused by this!  

I was given some work arounds which worked, but  was not what I wanted.  I can 
dig that up for you if you need me to, unless someone knows what the procedure 
to not have the texts displayed on the lock screen, if memory serves, you go to 
settings>notification center> show on lock screen and turn this to off.  That 
was one way, but I feel sure there was another way.  

However, what finally fixed it for me was I wiped my iPhone, re-installed the 
iOS and as a new device it functioned as it did on my 4s, so I reinstalled my 
backup from the iCloud from my 5s and the unwanted text message reading 
commenced again!  So, I bought more iCloud space, and put my 4s back up to the 
cloud, and then wiped my 5s again and did a reinstall from the 4s backup.  

Now I know this sounds like a lot of work, but I was also missing my custom 
ringtones, so this actually solved 2 problems I was having. 

Hope this helps, let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Re: Ring tone Sinking Problem

2013-11-14 Thread Katey Glass
Hello Eric,

I had this exact problem when I originally updated from my 4s to my 5s.  
Strange thing is that not only were my homemade ringtones missing, but some of 
the ringtones I'd bought from iTunes.  

So, let me first say that I'd lost them somehow because not all m tones had 
synced to my mac running ML.  What I finally had to do as no matter what I did 
to try to sync all my ringtones to my mac was to purchase additional space on 
the iCloud, sync my 4s back to the cloud, as both 4s and 5s couldn't be synced 
on the free 5G that Apple gives us.  

After I'd re-synced my 4s back to the cloud, I went to my 5s and wiped it, in 
other words I reset it and it looked like it had just come out of the box, and 
when it asked me if I wanted to set up as a new device or another on the cloud, 
I chose the 4s backup.  After a while everything was back on my 5s, including 
the ringtones!  

Hope this makes sense, let me know if I can be of further assistance.  

Katey 

PS, this also cleared up the bug where my text messages were reading on the 
lock screen instead of just saying the time and one allert.

Re: Text messages in lock screen

2013-11-13 Thread Katey Glass
OK I re-read that, show on lock screen, now the screen stays black, when
the message comes in, nothings read and just the text tone is played.  this
may have to do, but I know for a long time my screen did come on, message
was displayed visually on the screen along with the text sound.  Then it
would say the time and one notification.
strang indeed.

thanks,

Katey

Re: Text messages in lock screen

2013-11-13 Thread Katey Glass
Mark,

I appreciate your efforts.  That didn't change it, the 1st setting was as
you said, but I did change preview first to lines to none and it still
reads my entire text on the lock screen instead of just saying one
message.  :(  I'm not sure what's going on and why it suddenly changed
behaviourss!  :(  This just simply doesn't make any send what-so-ever!

I'm at work now, so can't really call Rick, I may try at lunch as I can be
on an office phone but there are no other settings on the phone that we can
physically fix.  Like I said to another email, I may re-sync my 4s to the
cloud and restore from that back up as that one isn't doing this, or wasn't
doing at at the time.

For now, I've jsut put my mute switch on and then it doesn't read the texts
out on the lock screen.  I simply don't understand.

Thanks for trying

Katey

Re: G-I-D Text messages in lock screen

2013-11-13 Thread Katey Glass
Yes, my read in lock screen was always sent to "off" but it started reading
them in the lock screen despite this setting havn't been changed.  So I had
to do a fresh install of my iOS and when it was a "new out of the box
phone" it didn't read the text message in the lock screen, so I did a
re-sync to my iCloud and before the apps were downloaded it didn't read the
text in the lock screen, however as soon as they all were downloaded, this
morning (as I let the sync happen overnight) it's happening again!  Gurrr!
I'm at work now so can't do anything.  I'll call the person I was working
with last night to see what he sugguests.
What I may want to do is re-sync my 4s as I haven't had the 5s for so long
and let that backup to the cloud and then I'd have all my ringtones back
and hopefully not the problem.  I haven't downloaded any new programs
(other than the ones Apple gives new iDevice owners since getting my
phone.  Any other apps have been free ones -- Plus they will still be
linked in the app store.  I'd have to re-donwload some BookShare books and
a BARD book but that's easy enough.
I just don't know what caused this behavour.  BTW, if I mute my phone (by
pushing the switch to mute) it doesn't read them out on the lock screen.

Text messages in lock screen

2013-11-12 Thread Katey Glass
Good Afternoon all,

I have a 5s running iOS 7.0.3 and suddenly today it started reading my 
text/iMessages when the lock screen in son.  I changed no settings!   Up until 
today it just told me I had a notification or something.  

So I double checked in general>accessibility>VoiceOver and read in lock screen 
is set to off.  

I called Apple Accessibility and they were baffled.  I then reset (again) all 
my settings   Guess what?  I still have my SMS/iMessages read in lock screen.  

Also, if I turn off my iphone when I turn it on, right after I reboot it and it 
says VoiceOver on it fetches my email. Even without my having changed those 
settings.  I have it set to fetch to manually and mail was not in the App 
Switcher.  

I think I need to see a Genius.  I've had problems with this iPHone since I got 
it.  Not just the usual volume setting, but when I tried to use iCloud to 
restore it from my 4s some of the programs didn't come, like Pandora and I had 
to use my computer backup which then got me Pandora back but lost ringtones.  

I still have my 4s and wonder if I should whipe my 5s and set it up as a new 
device?  after re syncing my 4s as both cannot be in the cloud!  

Please help me.

thanks,

Katey

Re: Using Zoom and VO

2013-11-11 Thread Katey Glass
actually, I'm primarily a voiceover user, but I occasionally use zoom on my 
iPad and I can launch it via the tripple click home button after VO is running. 
 On my iPhone I use VoiceOver most of the time, if I want to see something I'd 
rather use a magnifier as I'd have to have it so big, that I'd be panning so 
much it would take a long time for me to accomplish anything.  Lol.

Re: VO volume on iPhone 5s after updating from 4s

2013-11-04 Thread Katey Glass
Here's a copy of the email I sent to apple

Good Morning/Afternoon,



My name is Catherine Glass and I've been using an iPhone since the 3GS came
out with accessibility, I had a 3GS, 4s and now a 5s.  Unfortunately, I
write today to report a bug which I, and many other blind/visually impaired
VoiceOver users seem to be having with our brand new 5s units.



This bug involved the VO volume in the rotor.  I have had this selected on
my 4s and it worked as expected, raising my VO volume independently of the
system sounds from 1% to 100%.  However, after receiving my brand new 5s
this weekend, and restoring it from a backup of my 4s, the volume when I
flick up is stuck at 45%.  While I can raise and lower the volume using the
volume buttons on the side, the system sounds -- ringers and alerts are
rather loud.  If us lower the volume of sounds the VO voice gets way too
low.



I am a person who has some usable vision and I can see that when I press
the volume up button to raise the VO volume the little symbol which tells
how high the volume is almost to the top and still VO voice is somewhat low
in volume.  This is not the case with my 4s.  I can make the system sounds
rather loud and have VO speak softly.  If I put VO volume in my rotor it’s
stuck at 45%.



What should I do to fix this issue?  I have a brand new iPhone 64 Gig,
silver on the AT&T network.  I got this through the AT&T store.  Any
information you can provide me would be greatly appreciated.

Mark,
Thanks for the tip.  I may wind up trying that.  But If I sync my phone
with my mac and then reset it after syncing it, wont' the volume come back
in the rotor or the volume which it was set at be there?  What I was
thinking of doing was exactly what you said, going to settings> general>
reset> and the first option reset all settings.  I know that all my
accessibility settings as well as my battery saving tips which I put in my
4s will be gone (and all papers as well).  I can manually go back and reset
them -- I still have my 4s and thus I could easily go through the menus and
put back the ones I want-- minus the volume in the rotor.  I guess what I
want to know is this a software or hardware bug?
Thanks again,  Katey

Re: VO volume on iPhone 5s after updating from 4s

2013-11-03 Thread Katey Glass
Hello,

Yes VO volume will adjust with the volume buttons, but when I lower it using 
the buttons my VO & ring volume decreases and I do have adjust with side volume 
turned to off and so the VO voice and the allerts are both low despite the 
slider telling me the ringer volume is 84%.  It didn't work like this on my 4s. 
 When the slider was at a high volume, the system and allert sounds were loud 
and VO spoke softly.

VO volume on iPhone 5s after updating from 4s

2013-11-03 Thread Katey Glass
Hello all,

Sorry for the cross post, but I have a question.  I recently updated my iPhone 
4S to a 5s, and I was aware of the bug where you have the volume in the roter.  
I knew one should't go below 35% and that it couldn't go above 90%.

IAfter my update I still had volume in the roter, and it was on 45% and 
wouldn't go above that!  I didn't dare go below that.  I still have my 4s, 
which I can go all the way to 1% to 100% successfully each and every time.  

So, how do I get my VO volume to go up to 100%?  Should I sync my iPhone 4S 
with the computer with it up to 100% in the roter volume and then sync my 5s so 
that volume is at 100% and then lower it to say 75% and take volume out of the 
roter?  

Any help and insights would be appreciated.  

Katey

Re: considering updating from a 4s to a 5s

2013-10-29 Thread Katey Glass
Thanks all, I decided to go ahead, as my contract was up -- I went to AT&T and 
hopefully I should get it  this weekend, as they were out of stock.  

I also went with their new program "Next" so I'm paying (over time) for the 
phone and this allows me to be able to get a new phone next year if I want.  

Of course, if I don't like it for whatever reason I can always return it and go 
back to my 4s.  

I will admit that I turned on VO on the 5s they had on display, and I put 
volume in the roter and I tried turnning up the volume to 100% and it would 
only go to 90%.  Then I went below 35% and I wasn't able to get above that!  

Does this effect everyone?  How do you fix this?  I know easy is to not use the 
volume in the roter!  Any other ideas?

considering updating from a 4s to a 5s

2013-10-29 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

I've heard some of the problems some of you have had with the iPhone 5s, namely 
if you turn the volume in the rotor lower than 35% it won't go higher and of 
course some fingerprint reader issues.  

Does this effect everyone?  Do you regret updating?  Since the last iOS update 
my 4s seems more stable, no hypersensitivity issues and the phone after it 
rings stays in the ear piece.  

I realize the iOS will definately be faster, so what do you think?

Re: VoiceOver reporting Phone Is Locked twice

2013-10-23 Thread Katey Glass
I see this on both my iPhone 4s and iPad 3rd gen.  Not sure what is up with
this?  I updated both divices OTA.  I don't think I saw this before iOS
7.0.3.  What I did see before is if I was listening to a book or podcast
and pressed a volume button, it would say screen locked despite the screen
not lighting up -- as I do have some vision and can see that.

Many thanks

Re: difference in quality, restore or new device?

2013-10-19 Thread Katey Glass
I'd be interested in knowing this as well.  I currently havee an iPhone 4S and 
will be getting a new 5s soon, so I was thinking of going with a new device so 
as to avoid the bugs (namely the answering bug) that seems to be happening on 
my 4s.  

I know it would be very painful to have to re-download all my apps.  Also, I 
was going to make an encrypted backup on my mac as well as an iCloud one.  Just 
in case I decide to not set up as a new device.  

Thanks,

Katey

Re: Major issues with Safari after upgrading to iOS 7

2013-09-29 Thread Katey Glass
Hello,

I have a 3rd Gen iPad and ever since I've updated to iOS 7 I too, have noticed 
that VoiceOver will no longer track when I read webpages either in the page or 
in app reader view.  I never had this problem prior to the upgrade.  

Interesting that doing a restore didn't fix the problem, as I was considering 
doing that.  I may have to take my iPad into an Apple store and have them look 
at it.  However, I still can "read" the page, as VoiceOver will still read the 
text, only thing is that the tracking won't happen, therefore no clicks will be 
heard and I can't see the page moving.  

I think that on my iPhone 4S it does track but I'll have to double check that.  

Many thanks,

Katey

Re: Unable to read what I have written when composing a text message in IOS7

What I do to read what I've written in a text message is I put VO focus on the 
send button and then swipe to the left.  Then it will read the entire tesxt

Re: Reading in Safari

Not really, except that when I  need to go to another page!  the links are
hard to find at that point.  Plus it's a little funny to not see the page
moving and have an idea of knowing where you are in the text.  And if it
hits a picture it acts funny.  Katey

Reading in Safari

2013-09-23 Thread Katey Glass
Hello all,

I was wondering, if anyone has experienced this while reading webpages in
Sarari on iOS 7?  I have *some* vision and can see when the page moves and
the box is around what voice over is reading.  Now, since I've updated both
my iPhone 4s and iPad 3rd gen when reading web pages both in the native
page view and "reader view" I've noticed that the box no longer tracks
what's being read and the page doesn't move.

Also, one doesn't hear the "clicks" between paragraphs.  Of course, Ive
encountered the usual bugs out there but was wondering if this was just
something particular to my iDevices or if it's known and I haven't seen
anything out there about it either on this list or by doing a google
search.

Many thanks,

Katey

Re: IOS 7 visual issues

2013-09-20 Thread Katey Glass
I have to agree, from a low vision prospective and even sighted co-workers
are saying they have to "get used" to the new screen.  I have a 4s so maybe
on a larger screen the keyboard is easier to see?

Also, on my iPad 3rd Gen last night I noticed that VoiceOver didn't track
any longer.  In other words it would read the text but the box would not
highlight the paragraphs being read -- this happened both in regular safari
and in the "reader" views.  Along with the other VO bugs I Hope they fix
this!  As I was already mostly a VO user but now even more so!

Re: where will you purchase the iPhone 5s

2013-09-16 Thread Katey Glass
I'm getting the 5s as well.  I'm going to try to get it this Friday at
the AT&T store, but not unitl Mid-day as I'll be working a half day
and hope to get there before they run out.

I did get my 4s on the 1st day it was out, and that was late in the
day... so maybe I'll have the same luck this time.

I'm trying to decide which apps I can safely delete off for now and
then if I need them re-install them later, as I have a ton.  That way
it will make the switch easier-- I hope.

Just hoping Voice Dream Reader is approved soon.

Harry,

you can always look on the Bookshare.org page and log in, under
history there will be the books.  At the moment I'm not in the middle
of any books, and I have both R2G and the BookShare app.  So, if I
want to start one this week, I may have to use the BookShare one.

wonder if it's a good idea to delete it entirely from my phone?  Any
thoughts appreciated.

Spotify vs Mog?

2013-07-31 Thread Katey Glass
Which one in your opinion is more accessible and which one has the better
music selection?  I've been considering these for a while now but wanted
someone's opinions.

Many thanks.

Re: Fleksy question

Thanks for that answer!  OK so I won't delete it if it's a bug!  I've never 
used favorites before -- just used the cut & copy, but thought with this update 
I'd give it a try.  Oh well, guess I'll just keep using it the same way I've 
been using it for a year or so.

Re: voice dream or read 2 go?

2013-07-15 Thread Katey Glass
Hello Scott,

Yes, I have also noticed that the Read2Go app will sometimes as you say, pause 
while reading.  Like you I found it annoying and this is the reason I've also 
started reading a lot of books with Voice Dream Reader.  

I like the improvements which have been made since I got the app, so I'm a very 
hapy customer.

I use the LG HBS 700all the time when listening to Voice Dream, it was the 730

Re: Listening to Voiceover

2013-05-25 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

When out I have the volume loud enough so that I can hear my phone but not 
overly loud.  I also hold it off center and more than likely closer than the 
average sighted person does.  Also there are times I use a magnifier and 
actually look at my phone, and yes I know this looks different, as I've seen 
others who have low vision do this and I figure if someone sighted wants to 
ask, then they can .. but in public I have my cane as well, so I figure they 
probably know I don't see well!  LOL  

I do carry my apple earbuds with me for when it's too loud and I don't want to 
use a magnifier as Voice over is really more efficient for me to do things with 
for longer periods of time.  And yes I know that theres zoom on my phone, but I 
have to have that zoomed in so much that thats very inefficient for me to use 
at all.

Re: Bluetooth LG Stereo Headsets

2013-05-24 Thread Katey Glass
Hello Allen & All,

Well, this is interesting that it is an iOS problem, but does sound plausible.  
When my fiance came home from work I had him to pair it to his Droid Bionic and 
it works to his satisfaction.  He played Pandora and didn't experience the 
dropping or crackeling sounds I did on Pandora on my 4S.  Also, he's sighted 
and doesn't use talk back on his droid, I may see if it works, but I won't be 
switching!

So, since his 700 is relitively new, we'll trade for now.  However, once the 
new iPhone comes out later this year we may have to get a new bluetooth for 
him!  Also, I forgot to mention earlier that reading using Read2Go was also an 
awful experience, as it seemed that I'd lose a few words on each sentence.  
Also, typing without VoiceOver on (as I do have a little vision) wasn't a good 
experience either as the key clicks wouldn't even come through the headset.

Bluetooth LG Stereo Headsets

2013-05-24 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

I just wanted to write you all and let you know that I ordered an LG HBS 730 
headset from Amazon to replace my older HBS 700.  I read all the reviews which 
were mixed but I went ahead and tried it.  

Unfortunately for a voiceover user this is not a good choice.  I should have 
just bought the 700 as I know this worked but I thought it would.  

I should have paid attention to those reviewers who said that between songs 
that audio would break up & one could hear a crackeling sound.  That's a 
warning for those of us who use VoiceOver as VoiceOver stutters and texting is 
nearly impossible!!!  I know all bluetooth headsets have a lag, but this one is 
absolutely unworkable!  
 
I know this is the headset & not my phone as I can "unpair" the 730 and repair 
my old trusty 700 and do the exact same thing (type a text) and VO doesn't 
stutter or totally go away!

So, while I'd hoped the newer model with the voice which tells you that you are 
paired & lets you know that the battery status iswould work, it doesn't!  So, 
this will be my first return to Amazon!  Fortunately that sounds like it will 
be an eaxy process, as they said when I called them that I can go through the 
website & tell them I want to return it & then I can take it to any UPS store 
and they will print my lable.  

I will say this, that this is my first ever return to Amazon and I've been 
shopping with them since 1998  So, either I've been extremely lucky or I 
was fortunate that everything and everyone liked what I bought them.

Hello all,  

I was wondering if I have this on both my phone & iPad   if I removed the ads 
from my iPhone what would I need to do to get them removed from my pad?  I 
removed them from my phone via an in app purchase but when I downloaded it to 
my pad it has the ads again.  Do I need to pay again to remove the ads?  BTW 
both my iPad and IPhone are tied to the same Apple ID.  

Any insights would be great!

Re: stuck sleep/power switch on a 4S

2013-03-04 Thread Katey Glass
Well, as I had AppleCare Plus I was able to successfully exchange my iPhone
4S with the worn out sleep/wake switch for a new one.  Since I'd backed up
to the Cloud everything came back.  That is except for my BookShare books,
but fortunately the BookShare website has a History of the books you've
downloaded so I just re-downloaded them again.
So I guess the lesson is to  have AppleCare plus so that your phone is in
warrenty for the full 2 years.

Re: stuck sleep/power switch on a 4S

2013-03-03 Thread Katey Glass
Daniel, 

Thanks for letting me know that information!  I really appreciate it.  Wow even 
on the iPhone 5 that happens!  I guess it's a small moving part and they are 
bound to wear out.  Interesting that Apple tests their phones and the carriers 
don't.  I got my phone from AT&T.  

Will let you all know what happens, but I expect smooth sailing.  And yes,I've 
backed up my phone to the iCloud therefore everything should come back, 
correct?  I wonder if my bookshare books will or if I'll have to redownload 
those?

stuck sleep/power switch on a 4S

2013-03-03 Thread Katey Glass
Hello all,

I have a 32 Gig iPhone 4S that I purchased on Oct 15, 2011 and I have Apple 
Care Plus for it.  Unfortunately my sleep/power switch has become very hard to 
use.  I have always had my phone in a case & have never dropped or gotten it 
wet.  Currently I have a speck candyshell case on my phone, however even when I 
take the phone out of the case it's still very hard to get it to sleep/wake 
using the switch.

I do have a Genius Bar appointment this afternoon, and until then I've been 
using the assistive touch menu as a work around, however I've seen on the 
internet that some people have had problems getting Apple to exchange their 
phones,now they could be people who don't have Apple Care Plus but I know my 
phone is under warrenty as ironically I was at the Apple Store on Friday and 
was able to exchange my power cable which was fraying.  

Apparently this is a well documented thing that happens to iPhone 4 & iPhone 
4S's.  I'm shocked as one would think as much as we use the home button that 
that would wear out much faster!  

My question is has anyone on this list had their power/sleep button become hard 
to use?  If so, did Apple exchange the phone?  I know I could upgrade to the 
iPhone 5 but I don't want to, I'd like to see what happens this year with the 
new update.  

This is my original iPhone 4S, I had 3 iPhone 3GS's (all exchanged through the 
Genius Bar) as I had battery problems with the first 2 so within a 1.5 year 
time span I had 3 3GS's and in the same amount of time I have only had 1 4S.  
Oh yeah, do you know if the phones you get when you exchange them at Apple are 
they refurbished or are they new?  

Thankks, 
Katey

iTunes Music Match vs Amazon Cloud player

2013-02-26 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

I was wondering what is the difference between Amazon Cloud player & iTunes 
Music match?  First off, are they both accessible?  I found the Amazon Cloud 
player in the App Store & so far it seems accessible, plus apparently I'd 
purchased a few albums which are stored in my Cloud account.  

I guess I was wondering this is that there is a CD I want to purchase on Amazon 
which if I purchased the physical CD theyd add it to my Cloud account.  If I 
purchased the same "Album" from iTunes would it be in a cloud someplace or 
would it be on my iPhone physically?  Can one stream from the Cloud using 
iTunes Match?  I know you can using Amazon's Cloud Player.  

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: voice dream and bookshare

Hello,

At the moment thiis program works with the following, found in the "add"
menu.

DropBox
Web Browser
Editor
Clip Board
Guttenberg
BookShare

I think it can read PDF's as well.  I actually haven't read all the
directions that it came with.  Hoping someone else who's used it longer can
chime in!

Re: voice dream and bookshare

2013-02-19 Thread Katey Glass
I just downloaded the paid version yesterday, and once you sign in with your 
BookShare credentials, from the home screen go to the bottom and hit the "add" 
button.   list of choices will display with the last one being BookShare.  
Click on the BookShare button and you will get the familiar search screen - the 
one with the  categories  that you get when using the BookShare app.  

BTW, I do like the BookShare app, and have been happily using it for a long 
time, I just wanted to try this app out because of the different voices one can 
choose from, plus some books while they read while in the BookShare app,  for 
whatever reason the sentenses are read choppily, even though they display fine 
on the screen.  I have enough vision to see the highlight as it reads, and I 
can see it pause from time to time in some books.  So, I thought maybe this app 
wouldn't do that.  

Also, note I got it yesterday and it was on sale, that is on Tuesday, Feb 19th 
it was on sale.

Re: Object recognition app

2013-01-20 Thread Katey Glass
Thanks Tom,

I was able to remember the name by going to AppleVis.  I downloaded it onto my 
iPhone 4S and using moderate room light I was able to get it to successfully 
identify nearly all the objects I placed in front of it.  For a first version I 
think it's pretty good, but like others have said a repeat function would be 
good.  I will admit I have some sight so I can line things up pretty well, even 
if I can't read the print myself, but even items placed upside down are 
recognized.  I will have to see how my friend who has less vision than I do and 
who says she can't use her Camara to do VizWiz or other apps like that does 
with this.  

Thanks,

Katey

Object recognition app

2013-01-20 Thread Katey Glass
Hello Listers,
I was wondering what are teh app names that are out that one can use to 
recognize objects?  I know Omoby can do this but I thought I recently heard a 
podcast that there's a new one out.  

If anyone knows please let me know, if not I'll have to go review the podcasts 
I subscribe to find it.  

Many thanks,

Katey

Re: Apps "Waiting"

2013-01-05 Thread Katey Glass
It can take a long time to restore from the cloud it depends on how many apps 
you have to restore.  It took my friend a while to restore from the cloud a 
number of apps from one iPad to another.  I wasn't sure how many apps she had 
though.  So, bottom line is the more apps you have and the size can affect how 
long it takes to restore them.

Re: Voice Dream Reader

2013-01-04 Thread Katey Glass
Hello all,

I'm glad to see more people have experienced what I have with the
Dream Reader app.  I have only the demo version (AKA Free) version and
I do like the voice choices that it has!  However, as others have
noted that while VO is running those of us who are using it can't
interact with the text like the sighted people can.  I have limited
vision (can't read the print on the phone for sure) but I can see when
I place my finger on the text it moves -- just as if VO weren't
running!  Therefore I don't see a way for VO users to interact with
the text as the directions describe.

I'm a avid BookShare reader and have the Read2Go app.  I see that the
Dream Reader seems to not be able to move past the notice section, as
others have stated I will write the developer.  However, as I've been
a BookShare member since 2007 and been using Read2Go for probably a
year (at least) I'll write to them to see if they can get additional
voices -- maybe in a similar fashion that Dream Reader lets us choose
which ones we download.

I realize this is a limit of Apple, but it's a shame that apps that
are voicing and use the Accopella voices can't "share" them!  As I
noticed that both Heather and Ryan are choices for DreamReader and
these are the ones that come with Read2Go.  I know it's the sandbox
effect!  The same is true for GPS apps, many of them use the same
Samantha voice that comes on the phone!

Well, enough of my rant.

Re: Earpods and Apple Care

Hello All,

Yes earbuds/earpods are covered by AppleCare as I have gotten a replacement

I have had AppleCare on all my Apple devices.

Re: Router and Iphone

2012-12-18 Thread Katey Glass
Hello All,

I see that this says router & iPhone, however, my fiancé and I both have iPads 
running iOS 6.01 and we have an older Lynksys wrt54g router and we never seem 
to loose connection with it.  The only time we ever seemed to have a loss of 
connection is when we had a friend over who was also using an iPad and we all 
were trying to play Uno on RS Games.  Then we'd get thrown off the server but 
none of us seemed to lose Internet connectivity.  

I have a iPhone 4S and I connect it to the router to get my podcasts and to 
back it up at night and then again, I don't see it losing connectivity.  So, 
how do you all know you are losing internet?  

I guess I shouldn't worry as things are working as they should.  Also, I may 
mention we do live in an extremely small apartment so, maybe it's because we 
are close to the router which I'd purchased in 2007 when I got my Icon.  

Thanks,

Katey
