Re: oticon device to connect to bluetooth

2023-10-31 Thread Les Kriegler
For anyone who might be interested, you can also purchase a TV adapter for the 
Oticon hearing aids. In my opinion, it’s been a game changer for me. I 
connected via Bluetooth and I can use it as well activating it right from my 
hearing aids. I would encourage anyone interested to check with your 
audiologist who can arrange Nally to get you the TV adapter, but set it up for 
you.

Hi Carolyn,

I also have Bluetooth hearing aids, and when I am using them, I am getting the 
sound rather than the haptic feedback when I initiate Siri. Very interesting. I

Hi. I just tried it with the Arteck Bluetooth keyboard and it still isn’t

but I can’t move up and down. I don’t have a Logitech keyboard to try. I’ll try

Logitech Keyboard and Apple TV 4th Generation

2023-10-20 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi All,

I have been using a Logitech K380 with my Apple TV 4th Generation for about
two years. After going away for a couple weeks, when returning, that
keyboard no longer works. The arrows yield no response and the Return key
either does nothing or launches a different app that I am focused on. Since
my keyboard was out of warranty, I decided to purchase the K780 which I know
many use on this list. The same problems with unresponsive arrow keys are
present on that keyboard. On my iPhone, the return key does not activate an
app. Logitech says it is something Apple software modified. Is anybody
successfully using am Apple TV 4th Generation with either the K380 or K780?
If anyone can suggest another compatible keyboard, that would be
appreciated.

Best,

 

Les

RE: My iPhone starts playing music when the screen is locked and I’m not even in the same room, why?

2023-05-31 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Mary,
On occasion, that has happened here, but it's very rare. When it does, I stop 
playback and all is well. It's currently not a regular occurrence, perhaps a 
few times per year, so I have not explored the matter further. Be well.

Subject: My iPhone starts playing music when the screen is locked and I’m not 
even in the same room, why?

I guess my subject line says it all. This is happened to me on several 
occasions. I can’t have been playing a song, but close the music app and gone 
on to other things. It can happen when my phone is in one room and I am in 
another room and then I come back, and I hear music playing on my phone. It 
happens in no discernible pattern that I can figure out, but it has happened 
often enough where I know it can’t possibly be a fluke. It never used to 
happen. I can’t say exactly when it started, certainly sometime in the latest 
iOS cycle, 16. But it’s only been in the last few months. Has anybody had this 
happen and if so, what did you do to fix it?

Re: weird issue with capitalone 365 and voiceover

2023-03-24 Thread Les Kriegler
When I have run into problems, like this with Bank of America, I find that the best way to resolve. It is to get one of their technical people on the line and demonstrate the problem step-by-step to them. When I did encounter issues with Bank of America, that is what works best. You can tell someone about it, but it’s not the same as showing them via the steps you outlined.

Could people who have iOS 16.2 or earlier check if they can still successfully 
ask Siri to restart or shut down their device?

I am on iOS 16.3 public beta and this seems to have stopped working which is 
too bad because it was a handy command.

RE: Apple Watch Question

It seems to be app specific. I tried it from the Home Screen and nothing 
happened, no audio message.

I have no idea.

 

I was told that the Magic Tap is the Magic Tap, is the Magic Tap on all Apple 
devices.

 

Obviously, I should try everything out first.

That does nothing.

So, the question returns, who told whom to do a Magic Tap to get audio feedback 
and on which watch?

Thanks,

That helps.  IN that exact situation, the two finger double tap does indeed say 
live audio on or off… however, I’m getting nothing from the ECG app no matter 
how long I hold my finger on the crown.

 

No big deal, but I may call Apple to see if something is wrong with my Series 6.

 

It is good to know though, that Magic Tap, truly means, Magic Tap on all 
devices.

I think it is more a feature of the OS, not the version of watch.  I have a 
series 6 running OS 9.2 and it works for me.

 

After starting the ECG app, touch near the bottom of the screen.

It will first say, hold your finger on the crown, pause for a second, then say, 
magic tap for live audio.

On that screen, if you do the magic tap, it will either say live audio on, or 
live audio off.  The magic tap is a toggle.

 

Hope this helps.

Re: Shut down, sound revisited

2022-10-27 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Ellen,

Thanks for this. I did as you suggested, and it did omit the shut down sound 
from the lock screen. My main reason in sending this message in the first place 
was to hopefully assist me Chapman, who is having the same difficulty I was. 
Hopefully, she figured this out in his getting her shut down sound work. In my 
case, I would actually prefer to shut down from the lock screen, as it’s less 
gestures to do so. In any case, I will play with this and see what kind of 
results I continue to receive. So far, so good. Thanks again for pointing this 
out.

RE: Moving Apple cash to my bank account

Hi Terri,
An excellent question, as I was curious about this as well. This should get you 
headed in the right direction.
Open wallet.
Swipe over until you hear Apple Cash and your balance. One finger double tap to 
activate.
Swipe right until landing on the More Button and activate that.
Swipe right again and you will hear options to add Money and Transfer to a bank 
account.
That should get you going. I will be doing this in the near future. Good luck.

list of transactions, they have an option to transfer.

However, I don't have this as an option. I don't understand why.


Do I somehow have to add in my bank account?


Any help would be much appreciated. This is rather frustrating.


Thank you,


Terri

A Quick Update

2022-09-15 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi All,

I appreciate the well-wishes we received. I am doing much better. Being
vaccinated, boosted and the anti-viral medications have made a big
difference. My wife is two days behind me, but she's also progressing. I
have every confidence we will be fine.

Best,

 

Les

Re: Does iPhone 14 have Lidar capability?

2022-09-12 Thread Les Kriegler
I am with Verizon. I am a little suspicious of them, because they offer the 
most money if you upgrade to a different plan. So you wind up paying for that 
discount they are giving you overtime. Just read the fine print and make sure 
you know the details.

2022-09-12 Thread Les Kriegler
Caroline, don’t get me wrong, if somebody wishes to use my phone and they ask 
me and tell me why they want to use it, I will allow it. But I make that 
choice. I would never leave my phone sitting on a table. Too many people can 
pick it up and do things to it. We have a granddaughter and my wife’s phone 
gets picked up by her all the time and God knows what happens when she does 
that. But, I’m not gonna worry about that.

Re: NFL and iOS App

2022-09-12 Thread Les Kriegler
Richard, thanks for this review. I suspect the NFL knows they have problems. 
Why else would they be advertising as much as they do. Another company that 
bothers me is NBC. Peacock if you wanted to watch the Sunday baseball games 
they do you have to sign up for premium at 499 a month. Now they are offering 
it for less than half of that for one year. But again, as far as I’m concerned, 
who needs any of this. I do have SiriusXM and I’ve never regretted it. that was 
4.99 per month. so I don’t want anybody’s heart to go into arrhythmia.

Hi Richard,

Well, one of the differences between the iPhone 14 Pro and the pro max is video 
playback. One reports 23 hours and the max is supposed to provide 29 hours. 
Really, I just don’t think that’s worth it. I do mostly audio, so I would 
assume that number would go up if I’m not doing that much with video playback.

Sieghard I have eight iPhone 12 mini and I haven’t really been happy with the 
battery life. It doesn’t meet my needs. So I think this is the only thing that 
makes sense. I like the idea of the start up chime and so often I start my 
phone and more for the night I have to start of the second time before it will 
actually start. So this should help. Anyway, thanks for the information. You 
are a funny man. I trust your judgment even if you make a mistake. By the way, 
I do think that crash detection is in the iPhone 14. Have a good one.

As always people will upgrade whether they have to or not. And let's not forget 
there are many who still have phones like the iPhone 8, X, XS or XR and if they 
wish to upgrade this year simply because their phones are getting old then any 
iPhone 14 whether Pro or not is still a good choice. For sighted people who

there is a slightly larger battery, slightly improved camera on the 14/14 Plus 
and big time improved camera on the Pro models and the emergency SOS via 
satellite which again for users who are off the grid a lot could offer some

And anybody who doesn't think they need all that they can probably score a good

You'd be hard pressed to list 3 good reasons why somebody should upgrade from 
an iPhone 13 to a 14 or even from an 11 or 12 to a 14.
I am actually quite underwhelmed with this years phones especially the regular 
models which still have the A15 chip just like the 13 models from last year. 
They say they improved the camera a bit and the front camera now has auto focus 
so I guess if you are a selfie obsessed person that may be one good reason. The 
emergency SOS via satellite is definitely a feature and a good reason for 
people who go off the grid a lot and then that is about it.
I have a regular iPhone 11 which works great and for things like doing OCR, 
recognizing currency or using other Seeing AI features I doubt you would be 
able to notice an improvement between it and the iPhone 14 or even iPhone 14 
Pro. For sighted people who love taking tons of photos and are really into good 
photography the 14 Pro definitely would be a great option, if you really want 
to take advantage of door detection and maybe other features in various apps 
which require the LiDAR sensor then you have also a very good reason for the 14 
Pro or Pro Max, but only if you don't already have a 12 Pro/Pro Max or 13 
Pro/Pro Max which already have the LiDAR sensor as well.

I had my call from Telus, my provider in Canada today and I could have upgraded 
to an iPhone 14 Pro 128 Gb for $30/month over 24 months and then I would have 
to give the phone back to them or buy out that option for $560. This means that 
over 2 years I would have paid $720 and if I then wanted to keep the phone I'd 
have to buy it out for $560 so in total I would pay $1,280. I can go to the 
Apple Store and buy a new iPhone 14 Pro 128 Gb in Canada for $1,399 so I guess 
doing the deal with Telus may save me $100 or $120, but not a huge difference. 
AS for trade-in, Telus said they would give me $200 for my iPhone 11 64 Gb 
which is laughable because I know I could easily get $500 for it if I put it up 
for sale now privately.
So I will just wait and see what happens for a while, if the iPhone 14 and 14 
Pro phones aren't accepted as much as Apple may hope they are you may soon find 
stores, carriers and maybe even Apple offering extra deals and Black Friday is 
only just over 2 months off. I am of course somewhat tempted to get an iPhone 
14 Pro because I like the idea of the MagSafe charging where a slight bump or 
pull on the Earpods wouldn't dislodge the phone from its charging position on 
the wireless charging pad and you can get external batteries like that new 
Anker 622 MagGo which has 5,000 Mah capacity and it snaps onto the back of the 
phone without covering the camera opening, but I'll just wait a bit longer.

Hello Les,

Just FYI, you don't have to touch the screen at the top right to slide down for 
Control Centre or Notification Centre, touching anywhere at the top will do, 
right, middle, left, it doesn't matter.
Same goes for sliding up from the bottom to go home or bring  up the app 
switcher, you can touch the bottom centre, left or right and slide up and it 
all works.

Hi Cait,
Congrats on your new phone. Here are a couple more gestures which you might 
find helpful. If you start at the top right corner of the screen and slide your 
finger down, you should hear two beeps. You will hear Control Center. This is 
where you can check wi-fi and bluetooth status and the brightness of your 
screen. I keep my brightness at 0% for best battery life. Using the same 
gesture, top right corner, if you slide your finger down until you hear three 
beeps, you will hear Notification Center. Here, you can check any notifications 
you have received.. You can then slide your finger toward the top of the 
display and delete the notification you are reading. Swiping right in the 
notification center will show any notifications you have and you can act on 
each one or delete them all if you wish. Of course, you can keep any of them if 
you wish. Hope this is clear and helpful to you.
Best Regards,

Re: voiceover gestures on the i phone 13

2022-08-06 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Cait,
Congrats on your new phone. Here are a couple more gestures which you might 
find helpful. If you start at the top right corner of the screen and slide your 
finger down, you should hear two beeps. You will hear Control Center. This is 
where you can check wi-fi and bluetooth status and the brightness of your 
screen. I keep my brightness at 0% for best battery life. Using the same 
gesture, top right corner, if you slide your finger down until you hear three 
beeps, you will hear Notification Center. Here, you can check any notifications 
you have received.. You can then slide your finger toward the top of the 
display and delete the notification you are reading. Swiping right in the 
notification center will show any notifications you have and you can act on 
each one or delete them all if you wish. Of course, you can keep any of them if 
you wish. Hope this is clear and helpful to you.
Best Regards,

Les

I’m trying my trying to add my aunt on the appointment. I’ll tell you what I 
have done so far I opened up for example August 1 and I went to edit and when I 
talked about add invitees I double tapped on that and typed in Aunt and then of 
course it brought up Diane but for some reason it’s only finding her email even 
when I double tap on more info. And when I email her the appointments like 
today for example

 There wasn’t anything in the sent items to tell me that she had gotten it. 
Thanks for reading regarding this matter.

Re: Question about MLB app?

2022-07-09 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Fred,

Well, I am glad it is working better for you at least for now. I know you use 
the Apple TV and you have the MLB app for that, right? I have it on my phone 
and I don’t know if it’s the same as the Apple TV which I have as well. I did 
contact MLB and asked that they request that the radio feeds be added, but 
sadly, that hasn’t happened. I wonder if it will happen next year? We’ll see. 
Have a good day.

OK, here is what I do. When I launch the MLB app, I choose audio. I just tried 
this a couple of minutes ago. It is showing the correct day for me. Now, there 
are no fees to choose from because those don’t go up until a couple hours 
before the game start. Since all the games are tonight, this would be expected 
behavior. It has been like this regardless of what update I am running. I know 
I have the latest update because I receive automatic updates.

Hi Bill,

That’s great news. I will have to check it out. Now if the Cubs score some runs 
today, that would be good.

Re: Sirius-XM problem

2022-07-03 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Bill,

I am sorry you are in countering so many difficulties. I can now confirm that 
there are problems with the SiriusXM stream on my end. Yesterday, I wanted to 
listen to the Cleveland guardians game against the Yankees and what I got was a 
read out of the daily schedule as a post of the live stream. So something is 
definitely messed up there. N Nice wins for the Cubs lately.

Good morning,

I do have a suggestion. At this point, it might be useful to uninstall and 
reinstall the product. That might resolve the issue you were having. I hope it 
does.

Hi Bill,

I just went to the SiriusXM app on my iPhone. What I did was I chose sports. 
Then I chose MLB. Then I chose a channel that I wanted to play, it happen to be 
my teams game, the Cubs. It started playing immediately. I’m not certain what 
would’ve changed in your system, but things are working fine here and this is 
the procedure I followed to get the stream to play. Good luck with this.
Best,

Hi Richard,

Hope you’re doing well. I think the command for turning screen curtain on and 
off is a triple three finger tap. I know, it’s hard to keep track of all of 
these.

Re: Google Nest Thermostat Ap

2022-02-26 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Denise,

I have the Nest app and the nest thermostat. I’ve used it for years. It is very 
accessible. The only issue is the scheduling function. It is very difficult to 
create a schedule, however, it will learn your habits and so I don’t see the 
scheduling issue as a big deal. Other than that, I am able to perform all the 
necessary functions that I need. You should do well with it.

Hearing Aid Question

Hi All,
My hearing aids went in for service today. I received a loaner pair. There was 
an option to lower external sounds when VO was running on my phone. When I 
stopped using the phone, in about three seconds, any external sounds returned 
to it normal volume. I called Apple Accessibility and the rep with whom I spoke 
said the only setting she was aware of was attention Awareness settings which 
had no effect on this issue. Anybody know how to activate this feature? Thanks 
for the assist.
Best Regards,

Re: Need A New Money Reading App

2021-10-22 Thread Les Kriegler

You are correct. CashReader costs around $25 and is a one-time purchase. I am 
hoping to visit a couple of countries ar some point, perhaps next year, so I 
purchased the app.
Best Regards,

Re: iPad Question?

Hi Pam,

I actually have the new iPad mini on order. Could you explain what containers 
are and how you would navigate them. Do you swipe left and right the same as 
you do with other elements? Thanks for the assist.

Well, I have been using Face ID for close to a year. I can state one fat 
categorically. Touch ID worked essentially 100% of the time for me. Face ID 
does not. It works the majority of the time, but certainly not always. Wow I 
can live with Face ID, I do hope that Apple comes out with a touch ID option. 
Even if it’s not an actual button, I would still like to see them implement 
that. If they don’t, I can live with it, however.

Hi again Mary 

I had another thought. You might want to ride to support and iTunes.com and 
pose that question to them. Again, I would be confident that they would work 
with you on this.

Re: Apple One

2021-09-27 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Mary,

While I have not had experience with the subscriptions, I would think that if 
you decide you wish to go for the premium bundle, Apple would be cooperative in 
assisting you with a refund. I’m not certain that Apple accessibility could 
take care of it, but I would think that you would get cooperation from Apple. 
Hopefully, somebody who has more experience will respond to your query.
Best regards,
Les

UPS Deliveries

2021-09-25 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Sieghard,
Well, you know, I could have done that, but I didn’t wish to bust Richard’s 
chops. In all seriousness, I think the reason they left my wife’s iPad is 
because we now live in a Senior Living Community in an apartment. For all I 
know, the UPS driver may know us by now. We sold our home and moved out of the 
area to be closer to our kids, so deliveries are easier for us than they were 
when we owned a home. Thanks for a trip down memory lane with the Apple Stores.
Best Regards,

Les

Re: iPhone accessible thermostat preferably with Echo capability?

2021-09-20 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Alan,
We have used the Nest Thermostat for years. I realize there are less expensive 
options out there. As far as the app is concerned, other than not being able to 
work the schedule feature, it is perfectly accessible. The schedule is not a 
big issue for me, since it learns your preferences as you adjust the 
temperature. That piece works well. When we travel, it is easy to adjust the 
state of the system. For instance, we went away for 9 days, and I turned the 
system off. Before we arrived home, I was able to re-enable the system. It does 
work with Alexa. Hope this helps.

Re: Is Zelle Accessible?

Hi Arnold,

Yes, Zell is definitely accessible. I’ve used it for a couple of years and it’s 
worked well. I have also use Venmo and that works, oh that was more tricky to 
set up. It sounds like you can access the Zell interface through your bank. 
That’s the way I do it and it works fine.

Re: MLB Audio

2021-07-12 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Richard,

Well, I hope you have more luck than I did. I spoke with MLB regarding the lack 
of video feeds on the MLB TV app. Fred had alerted us to that a while back. So 
far, they haven’t fix that issue. So I guess we shall see. I meant the audio 
feeds. The video feeds work. The audio feeds/radio broadcast do not.

Hi Richard,

I appreciate your review, it is very helpful. I am planning to purchase this 
keyboard in the next week or so. My question is this. How do you set up a 
Bluetooth pairing with this keyboard? I know about the three assignment keys 
and I’m wondering if that is part of the process. Thanks.

No, you can unmute yourself. I was on a meeting the other day where everybody

Subject: Updated MLB TV app offers no radio feed access.

 

All: The latest update of the Apple TV version of MLB offers no radio feeds. I 
called them this afternoon to ask that they be restored because I often will 
listen to games through my Apple TV  while doing other things with my phone. If 
you have the same concern please call MLB at: 866-800-1275.

Thanks for your support.

RE: Updated MLB TV app offers no radio feed access.

2021-05-23 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Fred,

Thank you for pointing out the lack of radio feeds. I have encountered other 
problems with this update and had not noticed that omission. I had difficulty 
logging in which was required by the update for all devices used. I received 
error messages after typing in my password. What I did not realize was that 
after typing in the password, you had to choose the Done Button before trying 
to log in. Also, the first game in the schedule does not provide the names of 
the teams. One positive is that VoiceOver no longer speaks information once the 
feed starts playing. One option we have for now is you can play the radio feed 
through the MLB app if you have an Alexa or Google-enabled speaker. You say 
“open MLB.” Then after an introductory message, you say”play and the name of 
the team. Often, in my case, it’s Play the Chicago Cubs. I do find that on my 
Amazon Fire TV, the TV and the cable box both need to be off for this to work. 
This does not substitute for using the MLB TV app, and I will certainly contact 
MLB about this and the other issues I referenced above. Thanks again for 
bringing this to our attention.

Best Regards,

 

Les

Re: TeleMed.

Hi Jenny,

How are you doing? Yes, it would be an app you would put on your iPhone. I have 
used something called virtual visits and that is very accessible. I do think it 
depends on what your provider uses. I have not had experience with Tele med, 
but I would hope it would be accessible to you.

RE: Bank of America App

Hi Debbie,

I went to the App Store. The app you want is Bank of America, Mobile Banking. 
There is another Bank of America app related to finance and another called B of 
A also related to finance. Is it possible that the wrong app was downloaded? 
The problems you describe are so different from the Mobile App. Anyway, just be 
certain to download the correct app.

Thank you Les.

 

Perhaps it’s the iPhone 8 that is the problem. 

 

Actually it was my husband’s phone that we were trying to do this on so I’ll 
see if he wants to work on it again! 

 

I don’t remember which tab we went into but we were looking at alerts to see 
about modifying those and that is where we couldn’t find a back button nor a 
button to sign out and the tabs on the bottom were not the same as on the home 
screen. 

 

Maybe I’ll put the app on my phone which is also an iPhone 8 and work with it 
some more.

Hi Debbie,

I have been using this app for many years and find it quite accessible. 

Currently, I am running it with my iPhone 12 Mini and IOS 14.5. I do not find a 
back button on the screen, but really do not need it. Let me provide a few 
suggestions to get you started. First, the tabs you want are on the lower right 
corner of the screen. By default, the accounts available to you should appear 
first. You can single finger double tap to activate any of them. Along the 
bottom right corner are a list of tabs. They include accounts, transfers and 
bill pay. Just double tap any of them to activate them. There is an electronic 
assistant called Erica. She can assist in paying bills, transferring money and 
many other tasks. You don’t have to use her, I find I do sometimes, and other 
times, I use the app’s facilities to do what I want. Finally, on most screens, 
there is a sign out button. Again, just double tap to activate and confirm you 
wish to sign out. Swiping from left to right should help you once you activate 
the feature you wish to use. I would be happy to assist further if you wish, 
but this should get you going.

Hello,

 

I’ve downloaded the bank of America app to my iPhone 8 with the latest IOS 
update and find that it is not very accessible. 

 

I received a verification code which I entered but then it was very difficult 
to find a continue button. I actually called AIRA and they were able to help me 
find it using another iPhone to check the screen. There were 2 buttons which 
were not labeled so that I could say whether I wanted the device to be 
remembered and AIRA had to tell me which button was which; yes or no.  

 

Okay, so I got logged in and selected one of the tabs on the bottom just to 
check out what was in there and then I couldn’t find a back button and the Z 
scrub didn’t work. I couldn’t even sign out of the app so I just closed out of 
the app and will wait for the session to time out to log me out.

 

Does anyone have any work arounds for this app or am I doing something wrong? 
Is it just not accessible? Maybe it’s slightly usable?

 

Thanks!

 

Debbie

Hi Debbie,

I do this so often I did not even think about this. If you touch the upper left 
corner of the screen, there is an item called Go Back to Previous Screen. You 
can also swipe left and find this, it is the first item on any given page. 
Also, sometimes, it’s helpful to use Explore by Touch. You do this by touching 
in the middle of the screen if you get stuck and cannot swipe anywhere. I 
wonder if possibly the app did not install properly on your husband’s phone? It 
can happen. Let me know if I can assist further.

times, I use the app’s facilities to do what I want. Finally, on most screens, 
there is a sign out button. Again, just double tap to activate and confirm you 
wish to sign out. Swiping from left to right should help you once you activate 
the feature you wish to use. I would be happy to assist further if you wish, 
but this should get you going.

Best Regards,

 

Les

Subject: Bank of America App

 

Hello,

 

I’ve downloaded the bank of America app to my iPhone 8 with the latest IOS 
update and find that it is not very accessible. 

 

I received a verification code which I entered but then it was very difficult 
to find a continue button. I actually called AIRA and they were able to help me 
find it using another iPhone to check the screen. There were 2 buttons which 
were not labeled so that I could say whether I wanted the device to be 
remembered and AIRA had to tell me which button was which; yes or no.  

 

Okay, so I got logged in and selected one of the tabs on the bottom just to 
check out what was in there and then I couldn’t find a back button and the Z 
scrub didn’t work. I couldn’t even sign out of the app so I just closed out of 
the app and will wait for the session to time out to log me out.

 

Does anyone have any work arounds for this app or am I doing something wrong? 
Is it just not accessible? Maybe it’s slightly usable?

 

Thanks!

 

Debbie

Hi Paul,

Great catch. I had no idea the radio broadcasts are archived. As you listened 
to the Cubs game, I hope you are a fan of the team.

yes, it is possible.

Below is what I did today:

i double tapped on the MLB audio  tab 

there is a button : previous day 

I double tapped and screen displayed previous day games.

I double tapped on pirates vs. cubs and the broadcast of yesterday's game began 
, from the beginning 

There were  buttons to select games from other dates as well.

hope this helps.

That TMobile ads is for MLB TV, so you get access to all the TV broadcasts as 
well as the radio.  Regular price I think for that is around $120 per year.

But, you can get MLB audio, for just the radio broadcast and the occasional 
“Game Of The Day” that includes the TV for $20 per year.

RE: Apple AirPod Max, a moral etiquette question about wearing in public when active outside

2021-03-29 Thread Les Kriegler
Yes, someone could walk up behind you and brab them. I would never wear them 
when walking around. I would also be careful even when sitting down in a public 
place. Perhaps I will feel differently after a while, but I would rather error 
on the side of caution as they say.

Ok. Given the fact transparency is so well done, are any VI folks here brave 
enough to wear them walking around?  To me, it might be triggering fodder for 
those with their own moral high ground. It’s not like everyone is listening to 
Dubstep with the volume at 90%!  Opinions welcomed!  And without opening

Do you have to turn off bluetooth on the computer to switch back to the phone?

I’m also not sure how someone could conclude that the Airpod Pro’s are so much 
easier to work with without actually having experience with both products. I 
have the Airpod Pro’s myself, and I’m tempted by the Airpod Maxes, so I’m 
paying attention to these threads. Most of what I’m hearing seems to be around 
connectivity issues, and I wouldn’t think these would be fundamentally 
different between the Pros and the Maxes. Although my Pros have been great, 
I’ve had the occasional issue pairing them to my iPhone and my PC. I’ve always 
been able to resolve any issue I’ve encountered though. I wouldn’t hesitate to 
buy a pair of Maxes based on what I’ve read on this list to this point. I’m not 
sure they’re for me though, since I’m not sure I can justify the price, 
especially since I already have the Pros. I haven’t really seen a convincing 
use case where I would see myself grabbing the Maxes enough to justify the 
cost. This is just my own personal subjective opinion though.

Well Simon, if you make up your mind based on a handful of reports of 
difficulty with a new product then you may find you cut yourself out of a 
possitive experience. 

Some of the issues, at least for me, were user error.

But, given the cost in NZ, I certinly would not buy them without an absolute 
guarantee that I could get a full refund.

But don't judge them by a few people's troubles.

I've had far less issues with these than with some computers that cost twice as 
much, etc.

That sounds like somehow you got the sample of spatial audio started.

If oddities like that happen again, try the reset by holding the digital crown

Subject: Airpods max observations

 

Hello,

Just started using my AirPods Max seriously yesterday. I have had some 
interesting anomalies. First of all, when I installed the latest update on the 
phone, I had the headphones on. When the phone re-started, the headphones did 
not automatically connect. That was not a surprise. However, when I unlocked 
and logged back in with my passcode, music began playing on the pods. This 
sometimes will happen if the two-finger double tap is misinterpreted by the 
phone. However, I made sure the music app was not open, removed the headphones 
from my ears to break the connection, but the music continued to play. I shut 
down the phone completely but the music continued to play. I was finally able 
to get it to stop after re-starting the phone twice. That is odd to me.

 

Amy

RE: Apple Airpods Max, review after a few hours

2021-03-28 Thread Les Kriegler
Hi Richard,

I know what you mean about trying to keep track of e-mails! Well, I decided to 
reset my Air Pods. The one thing I did notice was that I did not hear any 
message about them being disconnected. These anomalies make me wonder if I have 
a problem or not. My experience as of late with Apple seems to depend on who 
you reach. They are working well, though. By the way, I took a look at the Air 
Pods support page where they did discuss how to reset the Air Pods. Would you 
like me to send you the direct link, or do you have it already?

Best,

 

Les

Hi Les,  

I've lost track of what emails I answered and which I didn't.

A hard reset did the trick.

And, I too had to work at getting them connected, but I think that was user 
error on my part.

Holding the digital crown and noise cancelation buttons down for severl seconds 
reset them and they have worked great all day.

So far, about 11 hours on the first full charge and they are around 50% charged 
still.

Later,

Do you notice when you have noise cancelation on, that the right ear still

feels like polyurethane, or even silicon.  My wife says it still looks odd, and 
with the headphones in it, more like a purse, but it appears to be quite 
sturdy.  I gather it has no charge of its own, it just tells the headphones to 
go into a deep sleep…

 

Now, as for the headphones themselves…

I am quite seriously impressed!  Yes, they are heavier than the average 
headphones but so well designed you don't notice that much after putting them 
on.

Yes, they are warm.  It will be interesting when the warm weather hits how much 
I'll want to have them on.

 

But, if you want amazingly good sound, that kind of just works with Apple, they 
are fabulous!

 

One thing I am very pleased about is what they call Transparency Mode.  

There are 6 microphones on the outside of the headphones.  While you are 
listening over Bluetooth to your Apple device, if you turn on Transparency 
mode, those microphones allow you to hear the outside world without diminishing 
the sound quality of whatever you are listening to.  Unlike other things I have 
had that tried to do that, the sound is in stereo.  So, if someone speaks to 
you from your left side, you hear it on your left side.

 

Those microphones are used to assist with the noise cancelation mode so it can 
tell what the outside noise is and counteract it.  So, when Noise Cancelation 
is on, the world is pretty much blocked out.

Well, of course Apple TV stuff has it. And I believe I saw where Hulu has it. I 
should go double check, because I know there’s at least one other service that 
has it. I heard it the little sample when you go in for the AirPods Pro, you 
can just hear a little sample of what it sounds like. And it’s very impressive. 
So I’m thinking that if it gets adopted on a wider scale, it could be quite 
awesome. Of course maybe competing services won’t go for it, but why not?

No, I never bought the Airpods. I do not like things in my ears. I will use the 
wired earphones that come with iPhones, but I prefer headphones that go over 
the ear.

The ear cups on these are big enough that they fit over my ears so that they 
sit on the side of my head without touching my ears.

I guess that is why when the noise cancelation is on, you are really in your 
own little world.

I decided to designate some of UNCLE Sam's gift toward these.

O, and the bluetooth lag while I am writing this with MBraille is not 
noticeable. 

Later,

 

Richard

Interesting, richard. I really want these, but the price is out of my range, 
seeing as how my husband is retiring in a couple of months and won’t be getting 
Social Security for another year. So I’ll wait for a sale. Smile. Do you have 
AirPods Pro? I ask because I do have those, and I’ve been very impressed with 
spacial audio, but it’s not available very many places. I think if it catches 
on, the AirPods Max could be absolutely stunning.

I received the Airpods Max today and unboxed them and was surprised how very 
sturdy and solid they feel.  I know, I've heard about them, but holding them in 
your hands for the first time, everything about them screams quality!

 

Now, everything I have read about the "smart case" which some people call the 
"smart pouch", and I have heard some say "Smart Bra"; but I would go with 
pouch.  I don't know if they changed the material, but the descriptions I had 
heard made me think I was going to have a mesh kind of thing that was kind of 
stretchy like the afore mention article of women's clothing.  However, this one 
feels like polyurethane, or even silicon.  My wife says it still looks odd, and 
with the headphones in it, more like a purse, but it appears to be quite 
sturdy.  I gather it has no charge of its own, it just tells the headphones to 
go into a deep sleep…

 

Now, as for the headphones themselves…

I am quite seriously impressed!  Yes, they are heavier than the average 
headphones but so well designed you don't notice that much after putting
