RE: Just a reminder, there is a spirit level Built into your phone.

2014-03-21 Thread Thom Spittle
It is a tool that you can use to level something. So if you open it, place
the long, flat side of your phone on the item you'd like to level (shelf or
picture), it should announce how many degrees you are out of alignment.

There is also one for when you lay it flat on a table, it will tell you how
far out of alignment, but not whether it's left and right, or front to back,
that is out of alignment. For that, just use the long, flat edge like
before.

It also has a vertical one for leveling walls or dressers.

 Hi,
 In case there are new people who don't know about this, if you open 
 the compass and then flick with three fingers to the left you will 
 open the spirit level. I find it is actually quite good!
 
 Always was a bit of a leveller,

For under $300, what are the best bluetooth headphones on the market? I want
over the ear models that can block out external sounds like train, plane,

I'm taking Amtrak to New York City next week and I want something that won't

Hey Eric,
I have the same problem and, yes, it is very frustrating.  In the messages
app, rather dictating or typing, the cursor seems to jump to the beginning
for no apparent reason and with no way of knowing that it has done so.  As a
consequence, I sometimes end up with the end of a message at the beginning.
For me, this started with IOS7 and I have found no way around it, short of
yelling at the phone, which doesn't help but makes me feel better (just
kidding).
Thanks,

I don't know if this has been addressed here. When I dictate in the short
segments required, often time my additional segments end up above what I
first dictated. This seems to happen whether I just tap dictate to continue
or actually move focus by character or word to the end of my last segment.

I really hope I explained that.

Does anyone have any recommendations what I could be doing wrong or how to
improve. It is most frustrating and I generally and up canceling the entire

I have the original Jambox, though I don't recall its official name. 
This was the first to be released after which there was a big Jambox and
later a Mini Jambox.  Mine is the one with three buttons across the top, the
left one of which is round.  On the right end are a 3.5 millimeter stereo
jack, the power input plug, and a three position switch, the top most of
which puts the unit in pairing mode.

Please would someone familiar with this box tell me what the user can do
with the top three buttons other than raising and lowering the volume. 
I believe there is a means of answering a call when blue tooth is connected
and also possibly making a call.  Additionally, pressing the round button
will announce the charging status.  Sometimes it says Jambox is ready.

I should also mention that I do not have the latest firmware primarily
because the updater is not very accessible.

Thanks for any info.

RE: iPhone 5 and Apple Wireless Keyboard: Control Key not Stopping Speech

2014-01-10 Thread Thom Spittle
I think it got broken in IOS 7. It worked well in IOS6. Hopefully they will
fix it. I have to use a 2 finger single tap to hush it up. Hard to do if
it's on the dock.

Converting Avi to MP4

2013-12-27 Thread Thom Spittle
Hi there group,

I got a mini mac for Christmas and want to convert my AVI files to MP4.

I also have 2 iPod 4thgens, and an iPhone 4s, an iPhone 5 and an apple TV.

 

I have a free avi to mp4 converter for windows. Here are my questions.

1.   Is there a free or low cost converter, accessible for the mac (if
so which ones and the prices)?

2.   This converter that I'm using takes a long while converting, what
customized settings are best for a good balance of quality on the Apple TV
for my children, and one that uses a smaller file size for transferring to
the iDevices?

3.   Would converting them via the mac save time, since macs are so
boss?

 

Thanks in advance

Thom

I don't think that you can import mp3 books in bard mobile.
What they were talking about with zip files were NLS books that you may have

I have had no problems adding books to the wishlist and importing them to
the app.
If you need any help, let me know.

 was: Re: Bard Mobile
 
 The error looks to me like it's a bard problem but I think it's definitely
 not a problem with anybody's individual phone.
 
 I just posted steps for dropbox. Here they are again.
 
 1. Put the zip file in your dropbox folder on your computer. Make sure it
 has time to have uploaded into dropbox.
 
 open dropbox on your device. If your zip file doesn't show up there, just
 wait; eventually it will.
 
 3. Find the zip file. Double tap it. Then wait till the progress says
100%.
 
 4. Double tap share.
 
 5. Double tap open in.
 
 6. Double tap open in bard mobile.
 
 The bard mobile app will open but will still not show the new book. This
 time I just left it open and and after a couple of minutes I got an alert
 that said the request had timed out. This may or may not happen to you.
 Remember the book has to do more than just be in the app; it has to be
 authorized which means the server is being contacted if I understand
 correctly.
 
 7. Go out of the app. I didn't remove it from the app switcher; I just
 pressed the home button on my phone and then pressed the home button
 twice
 to get back into the app switcher and found the bard mobile app and double
 tapped on it.
 
 I think it might have still said 5 audiobooks but as I flicked through the
 books, I found my new one. Then I checked again and it did say 6
 audiobooks.
 Order of this may vary. You might have to go out of the bard app and back
in
 more than once.

 Subject: Best bluetooth head set for work use
 
 Hi Listers,
 
   I work as a counselor but also do a lot of work on my talking
 computer.  Much of my work is confidential and there is a chance people
can
 over hear.  Also, my office companions never complain about the screen
 reader but I know they would prefer not to hear it.
 
 So, if price is not a factor what would be a quality comfortable device
that
 would be somewhat subtle but  have good sound and ease of use. I need to
 be able to hear the person talking to me clearly but also be able to type
 notes or look up things on the computer for them.
 
 Volume is important as I've found some devices hard to hear when there is
 background noise.
 
 I would prefer not to be wired to my computer.  A added benefit would be
if
 the device can pair to more then one device.
 
 Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

 Hi,
 
 Short answer: no. Longer answer: no  see below for why this is the case.
 
 The only way that this would have a chance of working is if a Blutooth
 device database was created with information about devices and their
 locations, in the same fassion as the WIFI hotspot database. However,
given
 the reasonably short range of most Blutooth devices, any company that
 wanted to attempt this would most likely have to enter peoples properties
 to gather any sizable amount of data.
 On top of this, the mobile nature of Blutooth devices would make for
 terrible accuracy levels; after all, do you really leave your iPhone in
one
 place all the time? If you're anything like me you take it almost
everyware
 you go - my 4S has been all over England and has been known to visit wales
 every now and again.  Consider what would happen if you tried to check
 your location whilst on a train: undoubtedly there will be a large number
of
 Blutooth devices in range, but their homes would be spread out
 throughout the country, making the task of determining your actual
location
 more or less inpossible.
 Lastly, WIFI access points are almost always left on, whereas I only
really
 turn Blutooth on when I'm using it. Even if we set aside the above
problems,
 it's entirely possible that a user may not have her Blutooth turned on
when
 data was being gathered, resulting in her device not being indexed.
 
 Cheers,
 Ben.

  Wifi does help with GPS accuracy though. That's because GPS apps, in
  addition to checking with GPS satellites, also check with hot spot
  databases and triangulate your location based on the hot spots you're
  around.

  Can I use an Apple TV as an air play source for audio?  For example,
will
 Pandora come through my TV speakers?
 
  I understand all the video content for an Apple TV, but I'm not sure if
I
 can just stream audio through it.

  Hello Jen and all:
 
  The keystroke that may assist you is option command s. that toggle will
 make that list appear and disappear.
 
  As for the challenge with your iphone syncing but not really, look in
the
 device portion of the table you made reappear with the previously
 mentioned keystroke. if you find a listing for your iphone that is not
really
 there, perform a command E to eject the device. then try closing itunes.
 
  If there is no listing of a phone in the device area, simply try closing
 itunes. it should not cause any problem.
 
  Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.
 
  Take good care and I wish you enough.

Yes, but that doesn't do anything to remove the many duplicated files that

they're accessible. I downloaded a trial of Dupe Away and can't even find

the film you're going to go see at your theater, and than start the
track when your film begins. The app will listen to the audio in the
theater and sync the audio track with where the film is so that the
user doesn't have to try and match the two tracks themselves. to test
the app, I downloaded the Princess Bride track and then watched some
Youtube clips from the film. In all three cases, the sync option
worked perfectly. The MovieReading app's latest version is expected to
be released before November 22nd, the opening day of the film
Philomena which will be the first movie to use the app's new
features. MovieReading is currently available on iOS, and they hope to
have an Android version soon. Pasted below is a press release from
Solo-DX about the MovieReading app and Philomena.

There was no manual. I just played around with the app and the website to
get the subtitles working. This will not be a good way of watching a movie
with subtitles using voice over. 

I am waiting for something on the audio description feature.

track when your film begins. The app will listen to the audio in the
theater and sync the audio track with where the film is so that the
user doesn't have to try and match the two tracks themselves. to test
the app, I downloaded the Princess Bride track and then watched some
Youtube clips from the film. In all three cases, the sync option
worked perfectly. The MovieReading app's latest version is expected to
be released before November 22nd, the opening day of the film
Philomena which will be the first movie to use the app's new
features. MovieReading is currently available on iOS, and they hope to
have an Android version soon. Pasted below is a press release from
Solo-DX about the MovieReading app and Philomena.

As exclusive U.S. partners with Universal Multimedia Access, Hollywood
Access Services is releasing Solo-Dx on MovieReading, the first ever
auto-syncing audio description app available for first-run movies. The
debut title on this exciting new platform will be The Weinstein
Company¹s Philomena, in theaters November 22. Using acoustic
fingerprinting technology, this new auto-syncing method will
completely change moviegoing for the blind and visually impaired via
their smartphones. It's really easy to use -- download the app,
download the description track, go to the movie theater, and enjoy!
Even if you arrive late, you can simply hit sync and your audio
description will pick up in the right place. Right now, if a visually
impaired person wants to go the movies, they either have to have
someone next to them explain what is happening on the screen, try to

There are a few ways that you can do this.
First, if the songs you want to add are in your music library, go to the
song and hit your application key ( just to the left of your right hand
control key)
Then arrow to add to playlist, right arrow and choose the playlist you want
to add it to.

OR..
If the songs are not in your library, go to the song or folder via windows
explorer, control c to copy. Then go to the playlist you want to add them to
in iTunes. Control P to paste.
It will add the selected songs to that playlist, as well as your music
library.

Note:
After you control P, iTunes may seem unresponsive  for a while during the
importing process, just be patient.

RE: Experience Descriptive Audio at the Theater with a New iOS App

2013-11-20 Thread Thom Spittle
Hey Keith and others,
After downloading the compatibility file, I went to the how it works section
of the website.  There is a flash box with all unlabeled buttons.
This is what I did with Jaws.
Top of page. Then hit b for button, I think it said Unlabeled zero button.
Hit enter.
 A woman will be talking in Italian. The iPhone will pick up her voice and
the text will show in the center of the iPhone. 
I know that this will be better when audio description comes to the site.
Here is some information:
There has been a company that sells the audio description  tracks on amazon
and probably on their own site. They had it to where you would have to pause
and unpause either the DVD or audio file to sync it.
It seems as though they are expanding to use this Italian  developer to have
their tracks sync automatically, which is awesome.

Though this hasn't come across yet, I would imagine that they will charge a
dollar or 2, to get the audio descriptions. I, for one, will gladly pay this
price for the freedom.

They also have tracks made for DVD movies. I would expect to see them as
soon as they know that the syncing partnership works.
Also, I read a poster that thought it would only be available at theatres.
It will work wherever you are listening to it. Theatre, home, car; wherever
it can pick up the audio.
The first run movies will be available on November 22, 2013. And you can
download them. But remember, you can't listen to the descriptive audio
unless you are located where the movie is playing. So, no freebies to those
who would like to hear the movie somewhere else.

I am trying to find a link for the US  company that does this. I will get
back to you.

It's technology advancements like this that lift my spirits for a more
accessible world.

Thom

there even if it’s subtitles only. So, when is the app going to actually
have movies available? I know, they mentioned the one movie that comes out
on November 22nd but is that going to be the only one? I would be totally
thrilled if the new hunger games movie would be available. When I lived in
Phoenix I had access to a theater with audio descriptive service but it is
not available where I currently live and it’s a bummer. So, I am totally
thrilled about this app.

Thanks,

Christina

Many theaters around the country are starting to offer the visually
impaired the option of listening to the descriptive audio track while
they're watching a film. Sadly though, this technology is not
available everywhere, and sometimes it doesn't work. The team at
Solo-DX wants to make the experience better by having the blind
film-goer use a smart phone app to listen to the descriptive audio
track instead. Last week, I had the opportunity to test out the new

Philomena which will be the first movie to use the app's new
features. MovieReading is currently available on iOS, and they hope to

RE: Tap TapSee

2013-11-15 Thread Thom Spittle
I thank tap tap see to have given me the oppertunity to see what a wonderful 
app they have made, and let me use it for the last year or so. I will support 
them, at the 100 picture package rate.
If this app started off as a paid app, I may not have bought in. But, I'm glad 
I did.

A dialog box can be helpful, it would certainly take up less data than a voice 
clip
The sighted people should receive pay for helping us identify things for us. 
Those that really like this app will gripe, but continue to use it, because it 
is so helpful.

 Hi Anthony,
 
 They did change the rules, but any company has the right to do so. I have a
 retail business and if I sell a pair of binoculars for $200 because when I
 bought it a few months before I paid $150 and that is sufficient margin for
 me but now suddenly the price of the same model went up to $170 because
 maybe of the exchange rate and a price increase by the manufacturer then
 of course I will have to raise my price not only y the $20 more that I pay but
 by about $30. A Customer might have seen the binocular for $200 and now, a
 week later, he comes in and it's $230 you could also say I am changing the
 rules mid stream. But the fact is that if my cost has gone up it is my right 
 to
 do so. At the same time I have and will continue to drop prices on product
 where my cost goes down and I often ask customers who complain when
 something is more expensive whether they would want me to leave the
 price where it is if a product drops in price. Of course everybody thinks it 
 is
 of course fair to drop the price but most have a big problem if the price goes
 up.
 
 I think it would have been better if Tap Tap See had charged from day 1,
 then a price increase would just be that, now going from free to paid it
 seems for a few that is considered totally unfair. Fortunately it is only a 
 few
 and I am happy for once to see that themajority of people do see the value
 of the app and are willing to pay for it.
 
 Could Tap Tap See have announced this? Yes, they could have started a
 months or 2 ago and put out an announcement on their website that due to
 the cost of image recognition they could no longer provide the service for
 free. Some would have seen that and for some it would have still come out
 of left field as you called it. There is nothing unethical or sneaky about 
 what
 they did and once the discussion started Tap Tap See was nothing but
 involved and upfront about explaining what is going on.

 Sieghard

 Balance is an app for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad designed to help you
 keep track of the balances of all of your accounts. Intended to replace a
 paper-based checkbook register, Balance maintains a list of credits and
 debits to each of your accounts. When you enter a new transaction, Balance
 automatically recalculates that account's balance. You can enter recurring
 transactions into Balance, and new occurrences will be entered into
Balance
 automatically. Password protection is available to keep others from
looking
 at your transactions. Balance also allows you to export your transactions
to
 your computer. With Balance, you'll always know how much money you
 have in each of your accounts so you can avoid overdraft fees.

I'm not sure which platform you are using. But, with windows, if you connect
your phone up to the PC, then open the folders in explorer until you get to
your images. Select all and delete.

Siri Issue

2013-11-04 Thread Thom Spittle
Hi listers,

For the past two days, siri has not worked for me. I have tried shutting
down the phone and starting it back up, Restarting it with home  Lock, and
a quick restart with the lock button 6 times quickly. My cell signal is max,
and my wifi is max. I have even tried shutting off wifi  to see if siri
works on the cell service. I disabled siri, then enabled it again.

Nothing worked.

Note. I have a 4S, running IOS 7.0.3.

My wife has an iPhone 5 running IOS 6 and her siri is working just fine.

 

Suggestions are appreciated,

 

Thom

RE: getting turn-by-turn walking directions with Apple Maps

2013-11-03 Thread Thom Spittle
I've used google maps in the background. When it's time for the
announcement, it comes up like a push notification.
I thought there was a way for it to repeat, but I may be getting my apps
confused.
I'll check and get back to you.

 Hi Anna,
 
 You know, it's funny, I've never intentionally locked the screen when
using
 any GPS app.
 
 I'll take a short walk tomorrow and test it out, as I am certain you will
do, as
 well.
 
 The only GPS application that continues to give turn-by-turn navigation,
in
 the background at least, that I've used is A T  T Navigator.
 
 I did install Google Maps on my phone a while ago but found that I prefer
A
 T  T Navigator and the native iOS GPS solutions.  My biggest issue with
 Google Maps is that there is no Repeat button.  So, unless you are
sighted,
 there is no way to either confirm or have the TTS repeat its last
instruction.
 
 Despite countless request for this feature, as far as I know, Google has
not
 addressed this issue.
 
 As a side note, about 3 months ago I created a route on both my iPhone 4 S
 and my Android phone both using Google Maps.  I wanted to see if there
 was any significant difference in the app's performance.
 
 So, I started out on my route with Android in one pocket and iOS in the
 other.  They were virtually identical.  As I traveled, it felt as though I
were
 hearing the instructions in stereo from two twins sisters.  It was a lot
of fun.

  Subject: getting turn-by-turn walking directions with Apple Maps
 
  Hello,
 
  I tried twice today to get turn-by-turn walking directions using Apple
  Maps, but while the app listed good directions and a travel time that
  indicated they were walking directions, I wasn't told when to make
  turns. I opened Settings/Maps and chose Walking Directions. Then I
  opened Maps, chose Directions, and entered start and end locations.
  Then I chose Route. I confirmed that Voice Directions was set to
  normal volume. Is there anything else you need to do to get this to
  work? I had the screen locked while walking, but I thought this was
  supposed to work even when the screen is locked. I'm using an iPhone
  5S
 with iOS 7.0.3.
 
  Thanks,
  Anna

RE: the mistery of the pictures

2013-11-02 Thread Thom Spittle
Hi Pablo,

This is very interesting.

So, it looks like there is 3 minutes between photos.

You say that your phone is always being charged when this happens.

I wonder if you don't put the phone on the charger, if the pictures would
still be taken.

Hi David.

Yes, I shown these pictures to some friends, and the pictures shows nothing.
But let me expose my idea about it. Another curious thing, is the pictures
are taken between 11:56pm  and 3:00am. 

 the pictures shows nothing, because at that time, I am charging my iPhone
on the table, and how I place my phone on the table, is with the lent of the
camera, facing down, over the table.

I have no kids, I live by my self, I have no guide dog, and I don't believe
in gusts either.

This what I believe. There is an app that is taking the pictures, maybe Find
My iPhone?

Why I think so?

1. The pictures has been taking at hours when I am sleeping. I love to
sleep.

2. The pictures are in groups, I mean, one day 3 pictures has been taking in
sequences, as 3 pictures with just a few minutes of distance between each
other. One day 3  pictures are taken at 11:56 pm, the next at 11:59pm, and
the last picture at 12:02 am. Other day the pictures are taken at 2:56  pm,
the next at 2:59 am, and the last at 3:02am.

The time is always at :56pm :59 pm or :02 am. Some times is at 11 pm, other
is at 2 am, or 3 am.

What I believe is there is an app that is taking the pictures, maybe find my
iPhone?

How can I stop it, I have no idea.

only way to know is through ascertaining what the pictures are.

Hi all.

I am noticing that every day, my iPhone is storing around 2 or 3 pictures in

when I am taking these pictures. I got my iPhone in my pocket the whole day,
and I guess that those pictures will not be so interesting. Even though, I
would like to know, why my iPhone is taking pictures, when I am not taking

Who is taking these pictures? 

But these last  days, I am finding 3 or 4 pictures new in my iPhone, every

What is going on here?

One

So,
 when I type in something to search in Spotify, I have a hard time getting
it to
 let me exit the keyboard so that I can tap the search button.  Any
 suggestions as how I make this process work better or if I've set
something

RE: Trying to clear my music

2013-10-27 Thread Thom Spittle
Jenn,
When you connect your iPhone to iTunes, you can go to devices, and then to
your iPhone.
It is here where you can decide what content goes onto your phone. 
I have mine only syncing playlists, then I choose which playlist or
playlists go to my iPhone, which to my iPod, etc. This way you can change
your playlist on iTunes, and it will be updated the next time you sync your
iPhone to iTunes.
I am getting a playlist together for Christmas music. When I want it to go
to my iPhone I will check the box to add it to my iPhone. When the season is
over, all I need to do is uncheck that box, and when I sync my iPhone again,
that Christmas playlist will not be on my phone any longer.

Understand?

Thom

 Thanks for this.
 The one thing I ask though is this is both purchased and just downloaded
 music that it is showing up.
 I guess the real problem is, I have to much music for my phone but have an
 iPod touch that can handle it all so don't really want to delete from
itunes.
 I was under the impression that you could completely remove all music
 purchased or downloaded from your music app on your phone.  Then you
 could go to itunes and manually manage your music starting with a cleaned
 out music app.
 If I'm understanding this wrong I'm sorry.

 Hi Jen,
 
 OK, if you follow exactly what I outline below you can disable showing
 songs you purchased but not downloaded:
 
 Go to Settings, iTunes and App Store, you have the following screen:
 
 Settings, back button - at the very top left iTunes and App Store, heading
-
 to the right of the back button and all the way across the top.
 I suggest you start at the back button and swipe right to follow along.
 
 Apple Id, jen.co...@shaw.ca
 This is underneath the top line with the iTunes and App Store heading.
 I just put your Shaw email here as an example, if you use it as your Apple
Id
 that is what Voiceover will say, if you use a different email address as
your
 Apple Id then Voiceover will say the Apple Id followed by that email.
 Now swipe right and you get the heading Show All
 Underneath are 2 items (you can continue to swipe right) and you can
 double tap these to turn them On or Off.
 The 2 choices are Music and Videos.
 Swipe right once again and you hear a description explaining what these
are
 for, Voiceover will say:
 Show all store purchases and iTunes Match uploads in your music and video
 libraries, even if they have not been downloaded to this iPhone.
 
 What is probably happening on your phone is that Music is On which
 means anything you ever purchased will be listed, but it's not actually
 downloaded to your phone. If you go to a song or album you have the
 option to download it.
 If you want to strictly manage what is on your iPhone by syncing it from
your
 iTunes library on your PC then you should turn off both Music and Videos
by
 double tapping on each. After you turn it off you can go back to your
music
 app and I bet that now it will say that it's empty unless of course you
already
 synced music to your phone.
 
 
 Regards,
 Sieghard

There is also a checkbox in iTunes that asks if you want to fill the
remaining space with music. If this is checked, iTunes will add random songs
to fill up your iPhone. 
Make sure this is unchecked.

 I'm using the latest version of itunes and I'm not seeing the select

 playlist or jenres.
 IOnly thing I see in my iPhone is music which I checked and sync entire
 music library is unchecked.
 I don't want or know how to make a play list, I just want to delete all
the
 music on my phone and put back what I want one song at a time.
 It says I only have 5 songs on there but I only have 1.20 GB of apps and
30 mb
 of documents and the rest is music since I have a 16 GB phone.
 When I go to music there are a lot more than 5 songs.
 I'm totally lost.  I've unchecked and checked everything everyone has
 suggested thus far and still my problem isn't fixed.

 Thank you.
 I fixed some of the problem.
 I figured out that my list of songs that was showing up on the phone was
 stuff that I purchased through itunes which is ok.
 I'm still not sure though why it's saying that most of my memory is used
 when I only have about 1 gb of apps and 1 gb of music.
 It's saying under other that there is like 12 gb in use and I don't know
what
 that is or how to get rid of it.
 I didn't realize that music there wasn't a songs area.  You have to look
by
 artists or genres or playlists in order to select.
 I was looking for just a songs tab like there is on the phone where
 everything would be listed and I could go through and get rid and add
music
 I wanted to sync.
 I have no idea even about itunes match so I turned that off long ago and
the
 automatic updates thing is turned off too.

 Hi Jen,
 
 First of all, you didn't say whether you turned off Music and Videos in
 Settings and iTunes and App Store and whether this in fact resulted in
your
 Music app showing no music.
 If you do this and your music app still has music in it, you should just
delete
 this music on your iPhone manually.Here is how you can do this:
 1. If it's just a few songs, select the Songs tab at the bottom of the
screen,
 then on each song swipe down with 1 finger to select Delete from the
 Action rotor and double tap. This is the same method you use to delete a
 text message or email.
 2. If you have quite a bit of music downloaded, select the Artists tab.
 Let's assume you have Dire Straits showing as an artist. Double tap on
Dire
 Straits and let's say you see 2 entire albums, Brothers in Arms and Love
Over
 Gold. You can flick down with 1 finger to go to Delete and double tap and
 the entire album is deleted at once.
 
 once no music is left you can now connect your iPhone to iTunes, go to
your
 device and check the music radio button.
 Now tab until you get to Sync All Music, tab another once or twice and
you
 will find Sync selected playlists, genres, artist and albums. It may say
it
 slightly differently, the main thing is you check this option, the one for
 Selected music.
 Once this is checked, tab again and you'll find treeviews for these items,
if
 you have Playlists you will find a treeview with all your Playlists, you
will
 find one for all the Artists you have, one for all albums and one for all
 Genres.
 In each of these treeviews (maybe they are listviews, I can never remember
 if Jaws say Treeview or List View here) you can arrow down through what is
 there and using the space bar check what you want.
 I prefer to select my music by Artist so I go through my listing of 200 or
so
 Artists I have and I check the ones I want, then I tab to Apply and they
will
 sync to my iPhone.
 If you strictly want to manage your music that way it is important to keep
 Music off in Settings and iTunes and App Store under the Show All
 heading.
 If you sync let's say Abba, Billy Joel, Dire Straights, Elton John and
Madonna
 from your iTunes library and you also have purchased Rod Stewart and
 Supertramp on iTunes, then if Music is off only the first 5 artists I
mentioned
 will be on your phone if you are in the artist view, if you turn Music On
Rod
 Stewart and Supertramp will also show up, but these songs will not be
 downloaded, there will be a download button beside each song if you go
 into the album and through the list of songs and you could double tap it
and
 redownload each song.
 
 You really have to decide if you want to manage your music via iTunes or
the
 cloud, but I think from what you said you want to do it via iTunes, so
make
 sure you turn Music and Videos off and don't buy/enable iTunes Match
 because then everything you have in your music library becomes available
 via the cloud.
 
 One more thing you want to do if you strictly want to manage your music
via
 iTunes is to turn off automatic downloads for music. This is also in
Settings
 and iTunes and App Store. Just swipe down further past the Show All
 options and where you can turn on iTunes Match and you come to a heading
 which Voiceover reads as Automatic Downloads.
 Here you have 3 items: Music, Apps and Updates.
 The explanation underneath reads Automatically download mew
 purchases, including free, made on other devices.
 This means if you leave this on for Music and you buy a song from iTunes
on
 your iPod Touch or in iTunes on your computer, then this song would
 automatically be downloaded to your iPhone.

RE: making a comma with handwriting

2013-10-18 Thread Thom Spittle
Switch to punctuation with a 3 finger swipe down, then make the comma. If it
says anything else, do a 2 finger swipe down and the comma should be one of
the choices.

Hi group.

I have pretty much figured out all the letter and numbers and don't have any
trouble making any of them.  The only one I can't make is a comma.  Can only
one tell me how they made a comma.

RE: Interesting dellema with the bard ap.

If you have dropbox, you shold be able to transfer it to the phone. Keep it
as a zip file. Go to the file via dropbox. Once loaded, you can export to
bard mobile.
The only catch is authenticating the book with bard. If their system is
down, it may not authenticate it.

 You may run into the same problem though, where you won't be able to

  For example, Russ Kiehne posted these instructions to the list:
 
  Doing some research, I found the following, hope it helps:
  Loading books into the BARDmobile app
 
  The BARDmobile app is able to play any DAISY/NISO 2005 formatted
  book. To load the books into the iOS device for playback use the
 following instructions.
  1. If not in a ZIP archive format. You should compress the directory
  holding the books files into a ZIP file.
  2. Connect the iOS device to your computer with a USB cable.
  3. Open the iTunes application and select the iOS device button at
  the right of the main window.
  4. select the Apps radio button on the main screen.
  5. At the bottom of the Apps screen is a section titled File
  Sharing with a column list of apps. One of those will be the
BARDmobile
 app select it.
  6. Press the Add. button located in the bottom right of the screen.
  This will give you a dialog to select the ZIP file from step one. The
  book will then be added to the app. You may need to restart BARDmobile
 to see the new book.
  NOTE:
  At this time the BARDmobile app will only play DAISY/NISO 2005 books.
  Other DAISY formats such as DAISY 2.02 and ePub 3 will simply fail to
 load.

  If Tap Tap See or Camfind don't give you the information you could try

  However, in a case like that I think using the help of somebody with

  always the easiest. If nobody is there you could always call a friend or

  somebody in a video call, then once identified mark it for future use.
 
  As awesome as the iPhone is and as much independence as it offers in

 Hi.  Well I knew that should be wright, but the second dvd I saw that I
got
 out of the box was one that had ads on it, but it didn't start with that
show.
 and the last one in the back wasn't it either.
 So I think I know what to do.

  If Tap Tap See or Camfind don't give you the information you could

  However, in a case like that I think using the help of somebody with

  eyeballs and human speech rather than something with a lens and a

  a friend or relative who uses Skype or has an iPhone and use
  Facetime to show the

  somebody in a video call, then once identified mark it for future use.
 
  As awesome as the iPhone is and as much independence as it offers in

  ways, it still is not and never will be replacement for the
  occasional
  human
  interaction, at least I hope not.

RE: OCR

2013-10-10 Thread Thom Spittle
Say text is a good one.
Use a darker background, you put the camera (not the phone) close to the
center and slowly move it up.
It will make a sound when the edges have been detected. 
Hold still and it will take the picture.

 Hi Tom,
 
 Not true, you can touch the bottom of the screen in any app or the lock
 screen and when you hear the double tone swipe up and the control center
 will come up. Works for me every time and so far in every appp where I
 have done that. It would hardly be much of a time saver if you had to exit
to
 the home screen every time you want to bring up Control Center to change
 the brightness or turn Bluetooth on or off etc.

 Subject: An alarm question
 
 Hi all. iOS 7 seems to have changed the way one cancels an alarm. If I set
an
 alarm in iOS 6, I would have a snooze and a cancel button. Now, in iOS 7,
the
 cancel button seems to have disappeared. I can tap snooze, but the only
 other button I see is unlock. Am I missing something. If so, where do I
 change this behavior. I have checked both clock and settings and looked in
 the user guide.
 
 Thanks much.
 
 Neal

RE: Apple Maps Voice Guidance in walking mode.

2013-10-07 Thread Thom Spittle
I have had great success. I'm not sure if I turned on headings with voice
announcement or not, but it gave me turn by turn directions. It was nice in
that it told me a few times before it was time to turn, and the number of
feet until I turned was very accurate.

 Subject: Apple Maps Voice Guidance in walking mode.
 
 Hello Folks:
 
 Has anyone had any luck using apple maps with voice guidance in walking
 mode in IOS 7?  I've tried it with and without Voiceover but no joy.
 Indeed, if there is voice guidance available in walking mode, Voiceover
 would not be necessary.
 
 Any thoughts?
 
 thanks all over the place.

 If the phone is unlocked I see an OK button for the alarm, if not,
unlocked I
 don't see that and then it seems to go to snooze, I then unlock the phone
 and when it goes off again I find the OK button.  Drives me a bit crazy
 because if I wanted snooze on I would have set it that way.

RE: Siri and relationships, how to use?

2013-10-02 Thread Thom Spittle
I don't think that it can identify older or younger siblings, just sister.
Then I would assume he will ask which sister you would like to call, text,
or email.
It works for my mother and sister, but since I only have one of each, I'm
not in the same boat as you

Tell siri that Susan is my sister, it will take you from there.

 It does actually. Every time you double tap on a text field it should
activate
 the keyboard. You know this as it will say is editing.

Yes, When in a call, you can hide the keyboard and there is a speakerphone
button as part of a choice of 6 items. It's located on the right side of the

RE: iOS7 Alarm Problem

2013-09-25 Thread Thom Spittle
Hi gang,
I have a repeting alarm for 6am every weekday. When it goes off, I turn off
the alarm and set a timer for 20 minutes, and get up when it goes off.
This morning after I turned off my alarm, I asked siri to set a timer for 20
minutes. The response was, a timer is already running, do I want to restart
it? 
Perhaps this is the background App feature that we've heard about. I'll
check it out some more and let you know.

 screen and waited until 8:38 came around and the alarm went off. After I
 finished my test I told SIRI to Delete my 8:38 PM alarm and SIRI
confirmed
 that it was gone. SIRI has great functionality when it comes to alarms.
You
 can ask it to show you the alarms you have, if, for example, you have one
for
 6:30 AM and feel you should get up 15 minutes earlier you can just tell
SIRI
 Change my 6:30 AM alarm to 6:15 AM. You could, of course, tell SIRI to
 Delete all my alarms and enjoy sleeping in, your daughter probably would

RE: Speaker Phone with Voiceover

2013-09-24 Thread Thom Spittle
Sieghard,
Here's a question for you though. If the switch to speakerphone is only for
voice over users, then did they put in the proximity sensor for only the
blind to use? 
I don't know of another app that uses this, with the exception of the lift
to talk with siri.
But iPhone 4 has the proximity sensor as well, and it doesn't have siri.
Hmmm..

 There might be other explanations but they would require wild speculation

 Hello Brice,
 
 Yes, on my 4S this happens a lot especially during the first 10 or so
seconds
 of a call. However, I had this problem with iOS 6 as well, in fact, I
received a
 replacement 4S 64 Gb back in March because my camera wasn't auto
 focusing any more and my old 4S was much better with that. Which phone
 do you have, a 4, 4S, 5 or a brandnew 5C or 5S?
 I would be interested  to hear from people who already have their 5S if
 anybody has that issue.
 
 I actually think Apple should completely remove this automatic switching
to
 speakerphone. I don't understand why I can't tap the Speakerphone button
 just like any sighted person if I want my call on Speakerphone and this
 would completely get rid of this issue which has been an issue to some
 degree for certain people for the last 4 years. What does everybody else
 think, would you prefer to have to double tap on the Speakerphone button
 or would you prefer to keep the automatic switching as is?

 Hi,
 As far as i know, Kindel and iBooks both does not anounnce page turn when
 you turn from page to page.
 I also found that it is easier to navigate page turn on iBooks, if you
wish to
 do it manually compare to Kindel.
 In order to navigate page turn, or to a specific page on Kindel, if you
are a
 voiceover user, you need to double tap to bring out the menu, and 'go to
 button', which is where you have the choice of table of contents, begining
 book, end of book, etc.
 What i found anoying with Kindel is it gives you the percentage of the
book
 by default rather than the page by default. This means, is harder for One
to
 go back in the future for reference purposes or such.
 As far as downloading other books are concern, you can simply download
 your third party books thru your email. When you got a 'dot mobi' file on
 your attachment, it will promp you as to which program you want to open
 with. choose Kindel, and the book will transfer to your kindel, under
device
 rather than cloud library.
 
 Hope this help

  Hi,
 
  I recommend trying both to see what reading experience you prefer.  As
  far as Voiceover speech, there's really no difference in my opinion.
  They both do continuous reading.  In iBooks, you might find it easier
  to navigate via table of contents in books since this is not always
  provided in Kindle books.  But, both apps are free, and both have free
  books you can download so you can get a feel for which one you like best
 with Braille support.

RE: Handwriting - how to get a comma

2013-09-24 Thread Thom Spittle
Hey Cara,

I found the colon for you.

Like Ron said, you have to do this quickly. Make the two dots, but make sure
that one of them is on the top half and one is on the bottom half.

It does not work all of the time, but about a third of the time.

Hi Ron,

 

yep, tried that already. Actually that was the first thing I tried.

 

It makes the double-tap sound and a period is printed.

 

Thanks so much though for the suggestion.

Well, the colen works the same way.  Just put 2 periods one above the other

Hello,

 

I am quite intriqued by the new handwriting feature and have been practicing
a bit. I have a feeling that if a person knows how to write which I do since
I lost my sight at the age of almost 17, this could become a rather
efficient method of text input. I actually don't understand why Apple does
not make this available to all iPhone users instead of restricting it to
Voiceover users.

They could have made Handwriting a keyboard choice so to speak. This way if
you added the Handwriting keyboard to your list of keyboards, one could
have simply tapped on the keyboard button at the bottom to switch to it, but
maybe they have their reasons.

 

Anyhow, I would like to know if somebody has figured out how to best insert
a comma. I know of course I have to switch to the punctuation area and I
have managed to figure out how to do most commonly used symbols like a
period, semicolon, colon, question mark, exclamation mark, Dollar sign, @
symbol, underscore etc.

 

I am still having a bit of trouble with a dash, if you draw a horizontal
line across it always interprets it as an underscore.

 

I don't think I managed to get a comma done more than once and I have no
idea how I did it. If I simply draw a line down the screen it inserts this
as a vertical line, if I give the line a bit of a curve it usually inserts
a right parenthesis. Any explanations are appreciated.

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

RE: Prizmo utilizes level functionality, was: New Spirit level feature part of iOS 7. Wow

2013-09-23 Thread Thom Spittle
Agreed, Sieghard, however the plain level that is built in to IOS 7 still
needs some tweaking from an accessibility standpoint. I sent an email to
accessibil...@apple.com letting them know that an announcement of x and y
axis when spoken with voice over, would help us trememdously.
I also suggested that an option for a solid tone to be played when the 0%
level has been reached. Currently, the screen changes color, so a tone
shouldn't be hard to do.

 Hello,
 
 I haven't had a chance to try this yet, but I did notice in the What's New
 section of the most recent Prizmo update that they said something about an
 indication that the iPhone is held flat and parallel to the table. Of
course
 this would easily be possible if they query the level function which Apple
 has built into the compass app and maybe it will help a lot with getting
 better free hand OCR results.

  A spirit level tells you when something is level.
  If you lay your iPhone on it's long edge with the screen facing you,
  you
 get a
  horizontal level.
  If you hold the long edge of your iPhone against a wall, you're
  checking vertical level.
  And, if you lay your iphone on a table with the screen facing up, you
  are using a plane level.
  With any of these, your iPhone will tell you the amount of degrees
  that
 your
  phone is off of horizontal, vertical level, or plane level.
  So, let's say I place it on a picture frame, on edge, with the screen
 facing me,
  and the level running. I can adust the frame until the iPhone level
  tells
 me
  that it's at zero degrees. This would tell me that the picture frame
  is
 level.
  Do the same on shelving to check level from side to side, or from
  front to back.
 
  I hope this helps,
  Thom

This is

Hey Sieghard and Kara,
Thanks for the tip.
You can also draw the first letter and it will shorten the list, right?
Then once you do this, how do you go through this list? Do you have to come

 Subject: How to Increase Siri's speech
 
 Hi all,
 
 while trying out the many great new IOS7 features, I've discovered that
the
 new Siri makes me wince a little. Smile. Is there any way to increase
the
 speech? The Samantha voice sounds slow and a bit drunk. The male voice
 sounds much more pleasant, but I'd like to increase the voice tempo if
 possible. Does anyone know how to accomplish this feat?

 I'm going to upgrade to iOS 7 tonight, but I'm curious how you kept your
app
 structure the same. Maybe I have misunderstood, but I thought there were
 only 3 apps per line now instead of 4, so there would be fewer apps per
 page.
 
 Thanks, Keith

 Subject: Success with IOS7
 
 Hi all,
 
 After sorting out my problems with the iTunes transfer of my apps, I'm
 happy to report that I successfully installed IOS7. It was incredibly
easy! It
 took about 8 minutes for iTunes to download the upgrade. It then took
 about
 20 minutes to install, and in about 30 minutes total time I had IOS7
running. I
 gotta say, the first thing I noticed was some of the different sounds used
for
 clicks have changed; they sound a bit cheap to me. Memories of Pacman pop
 into my head when I'm in the settings menu. Smile. One thing I'm really
 grateful for is that my apps and folder structure was maintained
throughout
 the process. I was definitely not looking forward to rearranging apps and
 folders. This upgrade was so painless that I'm still not sure I actually
 completed this task, but when I looked in Settings/general/About, it
states
 version 7.0.
 
   For the few out there who have not upgraded, the following is the very
 useful information I used to complete the process. It really helped to
first
 make sure all of my apps were updated as the update process did not have
 to go through this step as stated in the article.

 http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-57603329-285/five-things-to-do-
 before-installing-ios-7/
 
 Don't forget, the first major step is to install iTunes 11.1 as it will
 automatically prompt you to install IOS7.
 
 Joseph

Re: Using the Keyboard with iOS7

2013-09-20 Thread Thom Spittle
I use the right hand VO key (3rd from the left on the bottom). To remove an app 
from the app switcher, go to the switcher with VO and H twice quickly. then 
arrow to the app you want to remove and hit the right VO key and the down arrow.

For the control center and the notification center, I use the VO M command and 
use the right hand VO hey and up arrow to get to the control center and the 
right VO key and the up arrow to go to the notification area.

 Yes, I am talking about doing  the three finger (a.) Swipe up to close an app

 I thought of posting this answer as well, but since a keyboard was referred

 someone who knows how to do this from a keyboard might post those 
 instructions.

 Hi Mickey.
 
 Bring up the App Switcher in the usual way.  Now swipe right once and find 
 a program you wish to close,  Do a three finger swipe up and you will hear 
 that the app is closing.  Repeat this process for any other apps you wish 
 to close.
