Re: How many use VO Braille Screen Input?
Yes, braille screen input is a great feature. There are some places where it does not work. If you are in a multi-line edit field it will not let you go to the next line.

Normally, if you want to transfer files on your iDevice to your computer, you have to use iTunes to do this with the File Sharing section of the Apps tab. I just connected my iPhone 6 to my computer, opened iTunes, navigated to Voice Dream in the File Sharing section of Apps, placed focus on the Voice Dream library which is the only thing shown in the files listed as being on Voice Dream, selected the Save To button, and navigated to a folder called Voice Dream on my external hard drive that I set up to hold these files. Even though I have many items in my Voice Dream library on my iPhone, nothing was shown in the Voice Dream folder on my computer when I completed this process. I also find it odd that I was unable to drill down into the Voice Dream library folder shown in the file sharing section of iTunes. This leads me to believe that you cannot transfer content from your Voice Dream library on your iDevice to your computer with iTunes. On the other hand, you could make sure that whenever you transfer content into Voice Dream using the app that you go through a cloud-based service such as Dropbox. That way, the files are backed up to the cloud and you could also access your Dropbox folder using your computer to copy them to another location on your computer for backup purposes. I'm sort of trial and erroring here so I welcome comments from others who know a lot more about Voice Dream than I do.

I appreciate that they got back to me, and in a very timely manner. Peter, Thank you for your question about Apple Watch Accessibility. Yes, we do have support in Apple Watch for accessibility, that information will be posted on apple.com shortly. Below are the marketing descriptions of the Accessibility features for Apple Watch. Phil ——— VoiceOver VoiceOver is a gesture-based screen reader that uses the speaker on Apple Watch. It tells you everything that’s happening on the screen and helps you navigate it — even if you can’t see it. VoiceOver on Apple Watch is compatible with built-in apps and is available in all 14 supported languages. Font Adjustment Activate Larger Dynamic Type to increase the text size for a range of Apple Watch apps, including Mail, Messages, and Settings — and even some third-party apps — to make it easier to read. You can also choose Bold Text to make the text heavier across built-in apps. Zoom With Apple Watch, it’s easy to zoom in on your content by using the Digital Crown to move across the screen by rows. With magnification up to 15 times the native size, Zoom helps you enjoy all that Apple Watch has to offer. Grayscale If your vision is impaired by color, Apple Watch lets you enable grayscale onscreen. Once you set the filter, the settings apply systemwide, so you’ll see only shades of gray on the Home screen, apps, and more. Extra Large Watch Face Apple Watch has many different faces that you can change and customize. One of them is an extra large watch face — with numbers that take up the entire screen — that makes it easier to view the time. Reduce Transparency For features like alerts, Siri, and Glances, you can increase the contrast on your Apple Watch screen by reducing the background transparency. On/Off Labels To make it easier to see whether a setting is on or off, you can have Apple Watch show an additional label on the on/off switch. Reduce Motion When you turn on Reduce Motion, ﰆﰉﰃﰚﰅﰉﰋﰏﰅﰔﰃﰦﰏﰔﰏﰁﰉﰅﰃﰡﰅﰆﰃﰔﰏﰅﰆﰊﰛﰏﰏﰁﰅﰏﰌﰏﰔﰏﰁﰉﰆﰜﰅﰡﰃﰛﰅﰏﰞﰍﰔﰚﰌﰏﰜﰅﰉﰋﰏﰅﰚﰍﰛﰍﰌﰌﰍﰞﰅﰏﰄﰏﰊﰉﰅﰃﰡﰅﰈﰊﰃﰁﰆﰆﰉﰃﰚﰅﰉﰋﰏﰅﰔﰃﰦﰏﰔﰏﰁﰉﰅﰃﰡﰅﰆﰃﰔﰏﰅﰆﰊﰛﰏﰏﰁﰅﰏﰌﰏﰔﰏﰁﰉﰆﰜﰅﰡﰃﰛﰅﰏﰞﰍﰔﰚﰌﰏﰜﰅﰉﰋﰏﰅﰚﰍﰛﰍﰌﰌﰍﰞﰅﰏﰄﰏﰊﰉﰅﰃﰡﰅﰈﰊﰃﰁﰆﰆﰉﰃﰚﰅﰉﰋﰏﰅﰔﰃﰦﰏﰔﰏﰁﰉﰅﰃﰡﰅﰆﰃﰔﰏﰅﰆﰊﰛﰏﰏﰁﰅﰏﰌﰏﰔﰏﰁﰉﰆﰜﰅﰡﰃﰛﰅﰏﰞﰍﰔﰚﰌﰏﰜﰅﰉﰋﰏﰅﰚﰍﰛﰍﰌﰌﰍﰞﰅﰏﰄﰏﰊﰉﰅﰃﰡﰅﰈﰊﰃﰁﰆsome screen elements no longer move.

Re: iOS 7: Braille feature enhancements and caviots
hi what is the memoth code in braille setting. Can you read all computer braille math in memoth? Thanks On 9/18/13, Joseph Lee joseph.lee22...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, For braille display users and braille fans: We have a number of feature enhancements for braille entry and output, including: * You may need to pair with your wireless device again (at least this happened when I was trying to use my Apex, and iOS asked for the passcode). * By default, English braille will be in UEB. You can change this from VoiceOver's braille settings screen - there is a second screen which shows available braille tables (for English, these are Unified, US and UK). * If you disable automatic braille translation, you wouldn't see what you're typing in braille on the braille display until you press spacebar key. * A famous implementation (more towards a time-out) issue where VoiceOver would insert contractions while typing in the middle of a word has been fixed. For example, if I type te, pause then type st sign (dots 3-4), before it would insert still; in iOS 7, it types st. * I can verify Scott's note that select all command doesn't work anymore. Thanks.

Please let me know if this is helpful. When you open the touchscreen braille keyboard, first try to find the four corners of the touchscreen. Let's assume you have not flipped the dots in the Settings. First, type dot 1 for the letter A with your left index finger. Move your finger toward the corner of the iPhone until you find the limits of the touch sensitive area of the screen. Then type an apostrophe with your left ring finger, dot 3. Move this finger toward that corner of the iPhone until you find the limits. Now go back and forth with the letter A and the apostrophe until you have comfortably and reliably located your left hand. Next, do the same thing with your right hand. Start with your right index finger on dot 4 for the at-sign. Then locate your right ring finger on dot 6 for the capital sign. Then check both the at-sign and the capital sign back and forth until you've found a good position for your right hand. I am curious to know if this is helpful for anyone who is new to BrailleTouch or anyone who is having trouble getting certain characters to work. Please let me know.

First, is this VoiceOver loss situation common among all models of the iPhone running IOS 6.01, or is it relatively rare and hard to reproduce? Second, if it's fairly common, is Apple planning to do something about it? Third, instead of doing the reset that I just described, would simply powering down the phone and restarting it have been a better idea? Lastly, I'd really like to check out the Escape the House game and wonder if I should uninstall and reinstall it to resolve the issue of being unceremoniously dumped out of the app when trying to get past the first screen.

interesting apple pattent
Please read below. Verry cool. An Apple patent application discovered on Thursday outlines an invention that uses metadata from emails, texts and other communications to determine how a synthesized voice sounds in a text-to-speech (TTS) system. Source: USPTO The filing, titled Voice assignment for text-to-speech output, looks to create speaker profiles which can change the voice characteristics of TTS output to match parsed-out metadata like age, sex, dialect and other variables. As noted by the application, many systems exist today to aid the visually impaired, including the system on Apple's iPhone, however most TTS engines generate synthesized speech having voice characteristics of either a male speaker or a female speaker. Regardless of the gender of the speaker, the same voice is used for all text-to-speech conversion regardless of the source of the text being converted. Apple's invention proposes a different solution. Instead of hearing the same voice for every message, the invention obtains metadata directly from the communication or from a secondary source identified by the directly obtained metadata to create the most suitable speaker profile. According to the patent filing, Providing a speech output that is associated with a speaker profile allows speaker recognition while providing a more enjoyable and entertaining experience for the listener. An example is provided in which a user receives a message from Charles Prince, who has an email address of charles.pri...@isp.uk, regarding a party for Albert. In this case, the system could use the .uk address as primary metadata. Secondary metadata can be gathered if a contact card is attached to the message, or if Charles Prince's information is already in the user's address book. Metadata samples. The data from the text and the corresponding metadata are then fed into a TTS engine, which assigns a speaker profile to convert the text into speech. After converting each word and phonetic transcription in the text to distinct sounds that comprise a given language, the TTS engine then divides and marks rhythmic sounds like phrases, clauses and sentences. In some implementations, speech can be created by piecing together pre-recorded voice fragments, including sounds, entire words or even sentences, that are stored on a mobile device or in an off-site database. In other implementations, the TTS engine can include a synthesizer that incorporates a model of the human vocal tract or other human voice characteristics to create a synthetic speech output according to the speaker profile. One of the most interesting iterations notes that a speaker's voice can be recorded and analyzed to generate voice data. From the patent filing's description: For example, the speaker's voice can be recorded by a recording application running on the device or during a telephone call (with permission). The voice characteristics of the speaker can be obtained using known voice recognition techniques. In this implementation, a speaker profile may not be necessary as the speaker's name can be directly associated with voice data stored in voice database. As for output, the system may pick the .uk email address to use as primary metadata, taking contact card information like a birthday to determine sex and age, to subsequently output a speaker profile matching an older male with a British accent. Charles Prince's physical address, phone number, or picture can also be used to determine a speaker profile. The more metadata available, the more refined the output. Flowchart of TTS system. It is unclear if Apple plans to deploy such a system, however the company currently has a similar, albeit less advanced, system in place with Siri. While the feature is limited to certain regions, Siri has an option to choose dialects like English (United States) or English (United Kingdom) to recognize incoming voice commands, as well as provide responses in the selected accent.

I do agree though that sometimes these companies are damned if they do and damned if they don't. If they don't make enough changes then they're labeled as stagnant or not being innovative enough. If they make too many changes then people complain about having to learn a whole new interface.

Also with the way the app store is handled on Apple's end they can make improvements on the fly without a huge app update, they can just do it over the server. There aren't any big issues with the app store and I am not sure why the blind community is all in a huff over it.

We are writing to ask a question to those in the list. As you know, we are committed to develop Fleksy and make it available for more and more users. One of the restrictions we've had so far, is that on iOS, Fleksy cannot replace your system keyboard across the device. We provide as much integration as possible, letting you email, SMS, tweet, and (soon) post to Facebook from within Fleksy. And you can copy and paste to any other app. We are trying to go beyond this: we could provide Fleksy as a keyboard across the device, so you can use it in every single app without the need to have a separate app, or to copy and paste. We've also noticed that Android is becoming more and more accessible for visually impaired users with each update. So, here's a question for the list: If there was a phone that was accessible, and that had Fleksy built in from the start. By built in, we mean that Fleksy could be used as a system keyboard on every app, and that Fleksy would come with the phone, i.e. without having to purchase the app separately. How likely would this be to make you consider buying such a device? Obviously we are talking about a hypothetical scenario, so for now let's assume all other features will be the same as your current device. Would the availability of Fleksy as a system typing mode to use in every app make you consider an accessible Android phone in your next upgrade? Looking forward to your thoughts on this.

The event is designed to spur increased collaboration on accessibility solutions among developers from industry, consumer, and government sectors. The event will encourage the use of accessibility APIs (application programming interfaces), as well as publicly available data sets, in order to build accessible apps for mobile phones and websites. A key objective is to promote the concept and practice of developing applications with regard for generally-accepted accessibility guidelines, thereby maximizing their usability for everyone, including people with disabilities. The event will offer training on development topics, in-person collaboration on programming projects, and professional networking among developers. As important as the actual event itself will be collaborative activity in electronic spaces before, during, and after the event. Rather than limit this to accomplishments that can be achieved during a single, in-person event, this Developer event is not intended to be an end in itself, but will instead serve as an organizing opportunity to create mechanisms for ongoing collaboration among developers who are interested in building accessible technology solutions. It is also a goal of the AI to make smart use of new media tools to create electronic spaces for such collaboration. We encourage others to also activate online collaboration spaces associated with this effort. To this end, we suggest use of a particular abbreviation, DevAcc, as an electronic tag that facilitates searching and coordination toward these objectives. Please pre-register for the event by sending your name, affiliation, and contact information to dev...@fcc.gov by August 31, 2012. Also send disability accommodation requests to fcc...@fcc.gov. If there are particular ways that you'd like to participate, or related activities that you'd like to inform us about, also feel free to write to dev...@fcc.gov. The meeting site is fully accessible to people using wheelchairs or other mobility aids. Open captioning and assistive listening devices will be provided on site.

For example; just now I tried to type super dooper but could not input dooper as it wasn't recognised as a real word. As I, for one, love to use words of my own devising, i could get too frustrated if my only and default method of input were to insist that all my words be recognisable. At the moment, I think this is a fabulous tool for fast, accurate, and intuitive typing and i would love to see it, rather like the dictation option on the 4s, as an option alongside the default keyboard, but do need to keep the old method available. However, placing the app in the doc means that I can use it after just one click of the home button, once in the app I have the option to email, message and copy, to name just a few. I have tried them all and all work well! plus, having chosen copy, I found it easy to adjust and correct my text before sending it. In this way, one could overcome the odd shortcoming. Go for it!

Note, you will need to go to a newsline address with your PC to set up the criteria for your own individual news feed, however it will solve a problem for me since the Detroit News and Detroit Free Press have become unusable for me in the past couple weeks.

Re: it is now possible to downgrade your a5 i devices
How do you save your shsh blobs On 5/11/12, alex wallis alexwallis...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi list, in case nobody else has got around to posting this yet, I thought I would pass on the information, that a new version of the tool called redsn0w has just been released. this version offers support for downgrading a5 devices, those being the ipad 2,3 and iPhone 4s. I think the tool can be used to downgrade non a5 devices as well. Please note, that for the downgrade you do need to have saved your shsh blobs for the ios version you want to downgrade to. Also, these blobs are personalised to your phone, so you can't use someone elses if you didn't save them. if you didn't save them, sorry your out of luck, in order to have saved them you would have to have been jail broken. I am going to downgrade now til a new jailbreak is out for 5.1.1, as I did save my blobs. I guess for anyone who did save them and who wants to go back to a much less buggy ios version than 5.1 and above this method will also be useful, as no more unlock or braille display issues if you go back. please follow the below link for more information and instructions. http://is.gd/ZiNCj3 also, you will need both the firmware file for the latest iOS upgrade, and the firmware file for the version you want to downgrade to. There is a link in the blog entry comments where to get the files, when you download them, your web browser will rename them to zip files, so you will need to manually rename them to have the extension .ipsw on the end. Note I would suggest only change the extension, the part after the period, as I have no idea what happens if you rename the file completely. I hope people find the above useful.

I really like the idea of Skydrive, but I don't know how restrictive it is about using your Hotmail ID.

But personally, I like sky drive, it gives me 25 GB of free space, and works just like googl drive, and drop box, and already has a IOS app. So I can share, edit, and modify all my documents across all computers and devices.

You get 5GB of space free. You can use this in addition to other storage solutions you already have. The iOS apps are soon to follow when Apple approves them. Check out drive.google.com to take a test drive. I've verified that it works on the Mac but Windows users miles may vary. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
