Re: A Question for Audible Subscribers

2022-04-19 Thread Timothy Emmons
Guys, just a side note here for folks who are braille users using whisper Sync 
with audible and kindle. I've discovered this and You can open the kindle book, 
download the audible narration if you got the audible book when you got the 
kindle book, and you can turn speech off, and read as you listen. Turn the turn 
pages when panning setting off in settings accessibility, voiceover braille, 
and it will automatically flip flages as you read and listen. It's a whole new 
different way to read and while not for everybody or for all the time, it's 
good to have when you want or need it, pronunciation of words, and such. Just a 
quick note. Ok, I'll go back to my book now but wanted to throw that out there.

braille files too. Can I possibly read digital braille files from Bard or Nls 
or is that still not doable. Just curious. Thanks.

Airpod weirdness

2018-12-14 Thread Timothy Emmons



Guys, I have a really weird occurence and was wondering how to go about fixing 
it or if I were the only one to encounter it. It appears as if my right airpod 
has greatly diminished bass compared to the left. This has never happened and I 
didn't really notice it until the last phone update. Is there a way to fix it, 
or do I need to go see Apple and have them check it out at some point. They had 
a fuller sound and now it's a touch lopsided, unless I lay down and my ear 
seals the right one differently but I can't always do that. Lol. I know your 
ears can't change that drastically in a year, and the regular earpods sound 
perfect so not sure what's up. Any ideas guys? Thanks.

the pointer though. I'm on the lookout for one if something comes along, I find

Braille to speech apps?

2016-12-07 Thread Timothy Emmons


Sent from my iPhoneGuys, I have a curious question. Since I'm reading more with 
my phone, I'm looking to find an app that will translate braille to speech, 
like voicedream, but for braille files or documents. I dont Voicedream will 
translate them, not sure if read2Go would either, but looking for something on 
the iPhone that will translate braille to text so something like Voicedream 
will read them. Thanks for any help you can give. Take care and talk soon.

Got it. Thanks for that. I was just missing it all around.  I appreciate your 
help. This is definitely going to be useful for me especially in meetings and 
such. The Tisot Silent touch was nice, but this I think trumps that. Thanks 
again, this along with new IOS voices that I missed in the initial update have 
made my day, technically speaking. Take care guys and talk to you soon.

2016-09-14 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hi Claudio and folks, I just updated to Watch OS 3, and I can't figure out the 
haptic time as described here. Is there something I need enabled? Just curious. 
Thanks.

Re: just wondering if you are able to turn off the phone's pass coad feature on the lock screen if you have chosen to use a pass coad but now want to turn this off?

2013-09-19 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey, yes you can turn that off. I have had to do this on mine and had practice 
today of doing it about four or five times for patrons of mine, so here goes 
the instructions just in case someone hasn't answered this yet. 
1 Go into Settings General Pass Code Lock
2 Once there, there is a button that says turn pas code Lock off. Doubletap 
this and you're asked to enter your pass ode. (you're asked to enter it when 
you get into passcode Lock screen as well) 
3Once you've entered and turned pass code lo k off, I took one more 
precautionary measure, and swiped one more to the right and went to simple Pass 
code, which was turned on, and turned that off as well, and was done. 

Hope this helps and if you have further questions let me know. Thanks again and 
take care.

Re: Listing OCR Recognizer apps

2013-09-13 Thread Timothy Emmons
How does it identify pics on your device? I have tap tap see so was just 
curious. Thanks. 
On Sep 13, 2013, at 3:39 PM, Traci Duncan wrote:

 :) thank you for the replies so far.  I figured OCR  recognizer apps was a 
 sweeping subject for the list of apps.
 
 Let' see, I absolutely love tapTapSee.  It is the app that has pretty much 
 replaced vizWiz for me.  I have used it to read names of products in my hand, 
 I've used it to read something on the tv screen, and I've used it to identify 
 pics on my device.
 
 I think it is mostly the OCR apps that have me overwhelmed.  I don't use them 
 enough to know which work really well.  I've used Prizmo for reading mail or 
 longer portions of text.  I've also used it when I've taken a screen shot of 
 an online receipt and have it read it to me.
 
 I'm just not familiar enough with Perfect OCR, ImageToText, DocScanner, or 
 SayText.
 
 When I first got Recognizer, I gave it a whirl, but I had a hard time having 
 it recognize similar items of the same type.  It's a very cool app with 
 impressive technology, but lol, guess not for me.  :)
 
 Hopefully that answer some questions.  I should look in my store history and 
 remind myself which ones I paid for.

 Hi all,
 
 Inside my OCR folder, I have 11 apps.  In an effort to clean up my iPhone 
 a
 
 bit, could the group offer up their summery on the following apps.
 
 I’ll first list the 2 I use more frequently.
 Prizmo
 TapTapSee
 
 I occasionally use:
 RedLaser
 VizWiz
 Reviews, (use to be Consmer.)
 
 Here are the apps I’ve used very little, so don’t really know if they are
 worth keeping.
 
 DocScanner
 ImageToText
 Color ID
 SayText
 Recognizer, (regret this app big time)
 Perfect OCR
 
 
 So, my thought was, there are some of you that probably have far more
 useable experience with these apps, and you may be able to advice me on 
 keep
 
 or discard.
 
 Thanks for your help, :)
 Traci

Bluetooth missing

2013-08-28 Thread Timothy Emmons
Ok, I'm stumped, and I'm looking for a little help. Recently like within the 
past few days my iPhone 4 S seems to have forgoten allmy bluetooth devices, and 
parings, etc. My refreshabraille, my focus 40 braille display and I can't seem 
to pair with a new bluetooth speaker I got. I did have sounds drop out 
completely Friday but they came back Saturday. I'm running prebeta and beta 
software for testing purposes on my iPhone 4S 16 Gig with the latest IOs 6.1.3 
I believe the number is. How do you reset bluetooth, or do I need to restore 
from a previous backup to make them all pop up again. What's going on. Is 
Testflight posibly interfering with the bluetooth portion within the profile or 
something? Just curious. Any help would be appreciated. I threw this up on 
facebook for some of my AT folks and haven't heard back yet but was a little 
concerned. Thanks again and take care. Any help would be appreciated. Take 
care.

Apps stuck in update

2013-06-26 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hi guys, let me try and explain what's going on and maybe someone can assist me 
this morning. I have two apps, iHeart Radio and Slacker that are trying to 
update. I had a full iPhone a,d cleared some stuff out to let the updates 
continue. both iHeart and Slacker are now stuck in the updates, and when I 
click on them I get waiting, and they won't open or start the download. I tried 
to take them out of he app switcher to no avail, and even tried to delete them 
and uninstall them and they won't go anywhere and they seem to be stuck. Am I 
going to need to connect my phone to my laptop when I get home tonight and sync 
apps that way, or is there another way to clear this out and let the updates 
perform so I can use the apps. I'm running a 16 gig iPhone 4S with latest IOS. 
thanks guys. Take care.

Re: iBooks format?

2013-06-20 Thread Timothy Emmons
Yes, put them where you can get to them, add to library in iTunes, and then 
make sure that sync books is checked on your phone or iDevice, and it should 
snag them, but you have to add them to the iTunes library or they won't show. 
Hope that helps.

Re: Question re the Kindal ap.

2013-06-18 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey, jennifer, I wanted to address this real quick. You can go to 
www.amazon.com/kindlestore and it will open the mobile site. to get to it 
quickly I went into my utilities and added the site to my homescreen but to 
shop you just go to the kindle store mobile site, and go from there. As far as 
switching pages using a braille display it's Chord O or Chord O W or, 1 3 5, or 
2 4 6 with the space bar and it will advance pages or reverse pages. Hope this 
helps and happy reading. I'm a book nubt too so anything I can do to help let 
me know. Take care and talk to you soon.

Blogging

2013-06-11 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hi guys, I cross posted this because I'll take any assistance I can get. i just 
started a blog on wordpress. I know there are settings and such that you can 
adjust, namely putting an Rss feed to your blog. How does one navigate the 
settings and features, how accessible is it using Safari and the Mac, or is it 
best to use the iPhone app or is there an app that works with wordpres that 
gives you more accessibility than others. Just learning my way around so I'm 
curious. I would alos like to invite folks to follw and that sort of thing but 
not sure how to do that. I'm also interested in linking it to goodreads and 
audioboo, but haven't gotten there yet. I'm getting closer but the site seems 
to refresh a lot and I've gotten a little firather in the app itselfbut I'm 
still not familiar with how all the  settings work. Any help would be 
appreciated. I like what I see but want to do more. Thanks and talk to you 
soon.

Best Radio apps

2013-06-10 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey guys, just curious about a couple of things. Been looking for a good all in 
one radio app, and over the years I've played with Tunein radio, Ootunes, and 
recently had seen Hi Def Radio and was considering getting Hi Def Radio Pro for 
both my iPhone and iPad. What are some thoughts on apps and which ones do you 
recommend and why. Looking for a really good one, I'm liking Tunein, but always 
seem to go back to Ootunes. Tunein's shows on demand tend to catch my attention 
but I didn't know what everybody else thought about different ones and why, 
just getting an idea. Thanks and talk to you soon. Oh yeah, I meant to tell 
everyone. I'm no longer on facebook or twitter, it got too crazy and busy with 
a lot of things going on in life in general but I'm playing ande experimenting 
with a blog. it's a random blog but I might be able to have fun with it. If you 
guys are interested in following it, it's at: http://temons9.wordpress.com and 
I'l probably be doing some audio booing and the like up there as well so it 
could be fun. Anyway, take care and talk to you guys soon, but just was 
wondering about that. Talk to you soon.

Re: new accessible phone for the blind.

2013-06-06 Thread Timothy Emmons
I saw this and I'm in agreement with everybody here, on this. This is the 
question I pondered too. Why try to reinvent the wheel and in doing so, we lose 
all the funcionality we already have with the iDevices. Why reinvent the wheel 
as it were. I could go on and on about this, and for some it may be a good 
idea, but you lose a lot of the usability, iMessaging, facetime, the upcoming 
Bard app that  will be coming soon, among other things, it just seems like 
overkill or reinventing of a wheel that doesn't need to be reinvented, but 
that's my take. I may be missing something today and that's Ok, but I saw this 
earlier and I know a lot of these things like this don't normally take off 
greatly here. But, that's my spin on it. I am no longer on twitter or facebook 
at the moment, life and a hacker had fun with aprts of my account, so I stopped 
both of them for the time being but feel free to email me if you want to chat, 
and who knows I may do a blog at some point, I tend to go on about a lot of 
accessibility stuff and music and the like so who knows, but I digress. I'm 
curious to see what everybody else thinks but I had to say hmm on that one. 
Anyway, take care folks and talk to you soon. I've rambled enough. We'll see 
how this comes around and how well it takes off, I'm curious as I always am 
about new ideas and technology.

I do too, and you're right there. In doing this and working with the library 
and technology with a lot of different folks on different spectrums I tend to 
sometimes forget that and have to be reminded that not everybody can just get 
the iPhone like some so in that aspect it may fitthe bill quite well. It may be 
for the phone what the Saumsung Havens were for everyone else, so we'll see how 
that takes off. Thanks Chuck, like I said I tend to forget sometimes, because I 
deal with so many types of people with different learning ranges. And, the 
majority of people wanting a phone or to be able to do some of this are already 
open to the iPhone thing so I tend to forget, Lol. Thanks again and talk to you 
guys later on.

You're right Fred. like I said with Chuck just a second ago, I tend to forget 
sometimes, that that is the case, but there are those that just can't get or 
grasp the iPhone concept and it's Ok. I am curious to know how much this would 
run somebody and how readily available it's going to be, can you get it right 
alongside an iPhone, as a choice through providers, what are the big 
pricepoints, etc. I deifnitely need my afternoon coffee, I almost made a big 
mess with this but you're right. Thanks again Fred. Talk to you soon.

2013-06-06 Thread Timothy Emmons
I'm gradually learning, that that's the case. I tend to forget that sometimes, 
because even some of my elderly patrons and folks are iPhone not necessarily 
savvy,  but can grasp the concept because a granddaughter or grandson has it 
and can show them as well, and they've gotten interested there, but you're 
right, this may fall into that category. Where I'm more concerned as I think 
about this a little more is the price of something like this that is 
specialized. How much more is this going to cost and how much more will a 
consumer have to pay for something like this that you can do with a little more 
instruction and work, with the iPhone, or something equivalent that will cost 
considerably less because it is off the shelf and thus there for public 
consumption. Good concept overall in some areas possibly but I'm curious to see 
how it shakes out.

Is this even after the latest update to read2Go? Just curious, I have had that

 Hi,
 
 I'm having an issue with Read2Go. Before I take the sledge hammer approach 
 and uninstall and reinstall, I thought I'd ask if anyone else has been 
 experiencing this. I download a book into Read2Go and start reading. A few 
 sections in, when I tap the Next Section button, the app crashes. I open the 
 app again, open the book, and try tapping Next Section again. It crashes 
 every time. The only way I can progress through a book is to go to the table 
 of contents and select the next section. Then I may be able to proceed by 
 tapping Next Section once or twice, but eventually the app will always crash. 
 I have an iPhone 5. My mother, who is reading the same book I am, has an 
 iPhone 4S and isn't experiencing this issue at all. The reason I haven't 
 already broken out the sledge hammer is that I have around one hundred books 
 downloaded into the app and I'd like to avoid downloading them again if at 
 all possible. If this is one of those quirks of the 5, I'll live with it, as 
 it's not quite a show-stopper, though it does get annoying. Thanks for any 
 thoughts or suggestions.

Re: Screen Curtain a battery saver, but effective?

2013-04-10 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey gjys, sorry I had to chime in here, but screen curtain does not affect 
brighteness. What I do and it seems to work is to not only turn screen curtain 
on, go to brightness and drop that to zero percent. Also, don't forget to turn 
autobrightness off which will keep it from coming on if the phone rings or 
something like that. It tends to give me almost a full day of battery as 
opposed to dying halfway through my day depending on what I'm doing, but 
hopefully that helps somebody. Thanks again and take care. But, no, it doesn't 
dminish brightness using s reen curtain you have to manually turn that off 
whether you use n iPhone 4S, 5, iPad, iPod 5th Gen, or whatever, this what you 
have to do. Thanks again and take care. 
On Apr 10, 2013, at 12:36 AM, Lauren Simmons wrote:

 Hi James,
 
 I just turned the brightness up on my iPod Touch 5th gen to 100%.
 I then activated the screen curtain with a triple 3-finger tap.
 I then went into Brightness and wallpaper and the percentage of screen
 brightness was still at 100%.
 
 There might be a difference between iPod Touch 5th gen and iPhone, but
 all things being equal, the suggestion you conveyed below might not be
 true in terms of screen curtain regulating brightness. Just a quick
 test so my results will vary with others'. (Smile).

Re: The Blind Have Use For An iPad, Too

2013-03-27 Thread Timothy Emmons
I'm going to chime in here, and I am also going to forward this on to some 
folks, for a few reasons. The biggest of couse is, that yes blind people can 
use an iPad and it does have a place and it goes beyond the dexterity issues 
you mentioned in your message. It may be a little bigger than an iPhone 
especially if you don't have an iPad mini but along with the extra real estate 
as it were, some apps give you more features and ways to interact on a bigger 
screen and the app developers make some of their apps take advantage of that 
size. Voiceover works a little differently on the iPad than it does on the 
phone, the basics are the same but some of the interaction is different in 
double tapping, holding, swiping, you have more room to do b igger gestures a 
four finger swipe for instance to bring up the app switcher, moving through 
emails and texts by container instead of just headings which moves you from 
section to section, etc. I could go on and on, but those are just a few ideas 
and things but an example of an app that works so much differently and better 
on the iPad, is of course the sirius Xm app. This app, on the phone is workable 
but a little different. On the iPad all your channel information is displayed, 
you can move through the channels without searching for certain areas on the 
screen, and you can get to things more quickly than on the phone. iBooks read 
differently than on the phone your pages are bigger. If you use a braille 
display this makes a difference because you're not having to advance page by 
page as quickly. I hope this helps and hope this might clear some thigns up but 
the iPad does work for blind people, can be used for pleasure as well as 
business and depending on the need can fit righ in with some of the best 
accessibility out there. I am a regional librarian for the Blind here in 
Alabama, and work with the braille collection as well as the technology and 
alternative reading methods and I teach classes, and give instruction on the 
iPad a lot and can tell you it makes a difference in those that use it, for 
some they would rather have it than the iPhone or the iPod. I hope this helps 
and if you have any comments let me know. Thanks and take care.

 The Blind Have Use For An iPad, Too

 The blind might not be the original target market for the folks over at Apple 
 with the hugely successful iPad tablet in the first place, but this does not 
 mean that with a little bit of training, some perseverance, as well as the 
 right kind of software in place, the blind as well as visually impaired folks 
 too, are able to take advantage of this popular tablet device.
 
 As you can check out in the video above from Bloomberg, Jon Erlichman from 
 the same company participated in a workshop that actually helps instruct 
 teachers on how one is able to unlock the power of the iPad for the visually 
 impaired. This is definitely a heart warming video, as we see barriers being 
 broken down thanks to the wonders of modern technology. I wonder whether 
 similar training concepts and ideas can be incorporated so that those who 
 want to use tablets on the Android platform will not feel left out of the 
 equation.

Re: The Blind Have Use For An iPad, Too

2013-03-27 Thread Timothy Emmons
You may be right, and you do definitely have a point. The iDevices do allow 
yout o scroll and navigate the pages with the braille display but what I was 
trying to emphasize was the fact that your pages are indeed larger like reading 
a book on the iPad versus reading on your phone is for sighted individuals. In 
some circumstances, can be crucial to what you're doing and/or reading for 
work, or whatever your uses are. I'm writing this on my second cup of cofee for 
the morning so I apologize for the rambble, but that was what I was trying to 
get to there. This was in response to what Fred I believe was asking as to why 
or how blind people could use or benefit from the iPad and how it would be able 
to fit into what a person would use one for versus say an iPhone or iPod, so 
that was all I was trying to do. Take care.

 Hello, Timothy.
 I would respectfully disagree that any of the things you note below
 have to do with the iPad except for container movement. All the rest
 are due to companies not properly putting accessibility into their
 applications. If SXM properly made their products accessible, there
 wouldn't be an issue in navigation, and if Apple allowed iBooks to
 have pages turned by the scrolling of a braille display, the largeness
 of the pages wouldn't matter. Personally, I like typing on the iPad
 and actually like the size/shape of the product for certain functions,
 and it can definitely be used by blind people, but the things you
 specifically mention are problems in access on the iDevices, not
 advantages of the iPad.

 I'm going to chime in here, and I am also going to forward this on to some
 folks, for a few reasons. The biggest of couse is, that yes blind people can
 use an iPad and it does have a place and it goes beyond the dexterity issues
 you mentioned in your message. It may be a little bigger than an iPhone
 especially if you don't have an iPad mini but along with the extra real
 estate as it were, some apps give you more features and ways to interact on
 a bigger screen and the app developers make some of their apps take
 advantage of that size. Voiceover works a little differently on the iPad
 than it does on the phone, the basics are the same but some of the
 interaction is different in double tapping, holding, swiping, you have more
 room to do b igger gestures a four finger swipe for instance to bring up the
 app switcher, moving through emails and texts by container instead of just
 headings which moves you from section to section, etc. I could go on and on,
 but those are just a few ideas and things but an example of an app that
 works so much differently and better on the iPad, is of course the sirius Xm
 app. This app, on the phone is workable but a little different. On the iPad
 all your channel information is displayed, you can move through the channels
 without searching for certain areas on the screen, and you can get to things
 more quickly than on the phone. iBooks read differently than on the phone
 your pages are bigger. If you use a braille display this makes a difference
 because you're not having to advance page by page as quickly. I hope this
 helps and hope this might clear some thigns up but the iPad does work for
 blind people, can be used for pleasure as well as business and depending on
 the need can fit righ in with some of the best accessibility out there. I am
 a regional librarian for the Blind here in Alabama, and work with the
 braille collection as well as the technology and alternative reading methods
 and I teach classes, and give instruction on the iPad a lot and can tell you
 it makes a difference in those that use it, for some they would rather have
 it than the iPhone or the iPod. I hope this helps and if you have any
 comments let me know. Thanks and take care.

 I am interested in your train of thought, could you go a step or two
 further in your thinking or what you know. I have often thought about why
 a person who is blind might want to use an iPad however beyond the
 dexterity considerations I don't see any particular advantage unless one
 is visually impaired thusly the letters and icons would be larger.

 Apple with the hugely successful iPad tablet in the first place, but this
 does not mean that with a little bit of training, some perseverance, as

Re: TuneIn radio question

2013-03-25 Thread Timothy Emmons
Guys, if you get that from Tunein, you can always use Ootunes, it's a litle 
more cost wise, I think it's $4.99 but it allows for those cumulus streams that 
tunein doesn't, and works quite well. It's another way and you don't have to 
use iHeart radio. Just an idea, as I ended up having to do this. Take care and 
talk to you guys soon.

 Hi Debbie,
 Unless the content is protected. The only way then is to record off
 your iPhone's earphone jack or something kind of tacky.

 I'm not sure what computer system you're using, but, I'd get them on
 to it, pull them in to audacity  export them from there as MP3's.
 Just be
 aware that M4A is a compressed format  converting them to MP3 will
 compress them even further. If sound loss isn't any big deal, this
 should work out just fine for you. Any further help, let me know.

Re: I Heart Radio.

2013-02-22 Thread Timothy Emmons
Will do, glad it helped and glad it's working for you. I'll let you know, there 
are always things I either forget or just plain get stumped with so trust me, 
I'll yell, Lol. iHeart Radio was one of those things where I fell in love with 
the app especially after they introduced the whole custom stations thing along 
with the live radio and I've been hooke dever since and when I found the iPad 
version didn't work right, I gave the iPhone one a try and instantly never 
looked back. I wish they could get it fixed because if they did we could get to 
our friends stations and see what friends on facebook and all that were 
listening too, which right now we still can't get too on the iPhone version 
either but that's not one of those dealbreakers as much as it was not working, 
so the iPhone version works beautifully on the iPad. I'm running it right now 
as a matter of fact and love it. But, glad it worked, and I'll yell I promise. 
If you don't mind a bit of randomness on different things books, music and all 
that, feel free to follow me on Fb or twitter. I work for the regional Library 
for the Blind here so I also keep up with a lot of tech stuff and comment 
depending on what's going on, Lol. But glad I could help. Take care and talk to 
you soon.

loving downcast more and more, I'm already a huge fan. Thanks for this and I'll 
play with it and if I run into problems or need anything I'll yell. Thanks 
again and take care.

 Hi,
 
 Yes Downcast can do this. First, you need to get the files into Downcast. 
 These can be any unprotected audio format the iPhone can play. Downcast can 
 bring files in from the iPHone's iTunes library, you can use iTunes file 
 sharing to copy a file from your computer, or you can use an app like Dropbox 
 or Filer to export the file to Downcast.
 
 Once the file or files are in Downcast, go to Tools and choose IMport Files. 
 You import them into a podcast that is named by defaultImported followed by 
 the current date and time. As with actual podcasts, you can configure the 
 speed and other options, and Downcast keeps your place as you listen to the 
 files. It's very cool.
 
 Best,
 Anna

 Wait, I didn't know downcast le you inport audio books. Can you send 
 instructions on how to do that?  Or, is that iCatcher, and if so how does 
 that work. I could definitely use that. Take care.

 Hi, 
 
 Both are fully accessible and their feature set is about the same. Downcast 
 is the winner for me, because when you speed up a podcast or audio book, 
 the speech is less choppier in downcast. 
 
 Btw, I own both because icatcher was the first to let you import audio 
 books.

 Hello,
 
 people's thoughts on the pod casting apps, Icatch or downcast.  Both apps 
 cost, so I'd like to know if there are access issues please.

Re: Another Jail breaking Question

2013-02-06 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hi guys, I'm curious. I see a lot of jailbreaking stuff and see a lot of pros 
and cons on the subject. I'm curious though, if I were to jailbreak my iPhone, 
and decided to go back to the original iPhone say what it was before I 
jailbroke it, how do I do that, what would I do to get it back there. Just 
curious, and do they have a jailbreak for 6.1? Just curious. Thanks again and 
take care.

Re: Blue tooth

2013-02-02 Thread Timothy Emmons
Marisa, I've got one I'll hav ego look at the model number when I've got a pair 
of eyes, but it's an Lg,something, but it is bluetooth, works with voiceover, 
and the phone, and has two ear buds that fit in your ear. I paid about $75 or 
so for it, but it also has a feature that allows it to vibrate when you get a 
call so the bluetooth buds are in your ears, and a small loop goes behind your 
neck like we used to wear the old headphones of our ears when we weren't 
listening to them, and this piece has two cylinders one on the left and one on 
the right side. The buds have magnets on the back, and they attach to the 
cylinders when not in use, and the cylinder on the left side vibrates when you 
get a call and you're able to answer with the headset as well as control your 
volume, hangup, etc. You can also use Siri with this particular headset as well 
as voiceover and it handles switching from a call back to audio beautifully. 
It's a solid headset and like I said I'll get the model number and let you guys 
know. Thanks again and take care.

Re: Jailbreaking good or bad - Was Re: Key Vibrate

2013-01-10 Thread Timothy Emmons
 for a second. And
 then you'll have the option to Define, Bookmark and Highlight. A
 bookmark is always set at the beginning of the paragraph you'll on. A
 highlight is set on the sentence. So even it is imprecise because
 you'll see the exact Word you're pressing, in the end it'll be close
 enough. Once you set a bookmark, you can go back to it using the
 Bookmark menu, which lets you navigate to a autogenerated chapter,
 bookmark, or highlight.
 
 I'm going to add a Bookmark button in the next release so you can
 set a Bookmark at the speech cursor without having to invoke the
 context menu by long press.

 now. You need to press the text area and hold for a second. And then you'll 
 have the option to Define, Bookmark and Highlight. A bookmark is always set 
 at the beginning of the paragraph you'll on. A highlight is set on the 
 sentence. So even it is imprecise because you'll see the exact Word you're 
 pressing, in the end it'll be close enough. Once you set a bookmark, you can 
 go back to it using the Bookmark menu, which lets you navigate to a 
 autogenerated chapter, bookmark, or highlight. 
 
 I'm going to add a Bookmark button in the next release so you can set a 
 Bookmark at the speech cursor without having to invoke the context menu by 
 long press.

 Thanks Winston, I figured you had gotten it but were busy with other things 
 so it's cool. Glad to know that a lot of folks are using it, I have found the 
 bookmarks chapter marks and such very usable for navigation and have used 
 this since I have gotten it more than read2go because it does recognize more 
 formats, and has more voices with everything. Keep up the great work and I 
 hope to see some great things from you guys in the future. I noticec the 
 textbox and that is handy. The only thing is, how does one set bookmarks in a 
 particular book, or is it possible with voiceover yet. I can get to all the 
 bookmarks that are automatically generated but didn't know if I could set my 
 own. I haven't explored the chapter marks yet and was wondering if that is a 
 separate setting or how that works, but I use a lot of the automatically  
 generated bookmarks to navigate with now which is nice. Anyway, thanks again 
 for getting back to me, and keep up the great work. I'm recommending it to 
 not only blind and visually impaired patrons of mine since I work for the 
 Library for the Blind here in Alabama, but I am also recommending it to 
 students with learning disabilities that are on bookshare and even if they're 
 not to use the app because of all it does provide for the price especially. 
 I'm hooked and hope to see more great updates and features as you can. Thanks 
 for a great product and keep up the great work. Take care and talk to you 
 soon.

 Hi,
 
 Yes I did get your email. I'm thinking through text navigation of the text 
 area right now. I don't want to rush to a solution yet. I can't just turn on 
 VO support because I built the text box myself in order to handle very large 
 text. 
 
 Quite a few blind users are using my app happily now, using a combination of 
 chapter marks, bookmarks, text search, and manual scrolling.

Re: TuneIn Radio Question.

2012-12-07 Thread Timothy Emmons
It's actually not that bad. If you're using Tunein on your phone, go into Car 
Mode which is one of the buttons on the home screen after you launch Tunein. 
You are presented with a few buttons, one of which is search for stations, 
songs shows, etc. Dobule tap that it brings up the edit box and tap in, wcbs 
and hit search, It will bring up your results. Exit car mode and it will drop 
you in your results I believe, haven't done it in a day or two, but it will 
show you your results and you find the one you want and double tap it and 
you're golden. Hope that helps Thanks again and take care.

Re: 6.1 ios and bluetooth keyboard

2012-12-03 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey, not sure if anybody has gotten to you on this yet, but you can use the 
rotor commands on the keyboard, by hitting up arrow and either left or right 
arrow respectiviely to move the rotar through the different setings. You want 
to do this until you hear voiceover speak Characters. Then you can go down 
arrow letter by letter through a message. If you don't have your web rotar set 
up in voiceover go into general, accessibility, voiceover, web rotar, and 
select the diffeent settings you want announced, and one of these is character. 
Once you make sure that will show up come out of it, hit your up arrow, with 
either left or right arrow and you should be fine. Hope this helps. Take care 
and talk to you soon.

number. I set it up for texting and calling and use an app called Talkatone, 
that works with google voice to allow for phone calls. I can't remember all the 
steps I went through to set it up, but it's pretty straight forward until you 
get to the capcha, but once pased that you're set to go, the page is fairly 
easy to navigate and you can adjust things to your liking. I'll see if I can

Re: Please help, can't figure out how to use the rotor on Iphone

2012-11-05 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey guys, when I taught my last iPhone class, I taught the rotar this way and 
it worked great. The student was able to pick it up quite well, lightly using 
the back of the hand as my surface I showed them how to turn the rotar and what 
to do and it worked perfectly, this also works for gestures, and tapping as 
well. Hope this helps. Thanks. 
On Nov 5, 2012, at 3:12 PM, Rob Harris wrote:

 I don't think i'd have trouble demonstrating as such, though this is going 
 to depend mostly on the comprehension of the trainee.
 
 But you do the gesture on the back of their hand, while it is more or less 
 in situ with the iDevice, then they try and emulate what they feel you do. 
 You could step them through quite a lot as you do a gesture relative to what 
 was heard from VO and the trainee mirrors what you did;and then you get 
 to pause and see if they make the right gesture and reproduce again as 
 necessary and so on.  Getting  into the right angle to use right hand on 
 right hand for example could be a bit tricky, but   this method sounds as 
 plausible as any.
 Trainer would need a light touch so as to not hamper the trainees movements, 
 but  we tend to have a knack of following the movements of a guide lightly 
 so they're not sure you're still there.

 Cheryl, I completely agree, I would find it very difficult to demonstrate it 
 to someone. I’ve always described it to people as like turning a knob with 
 two fingers.

 Showing physically isn't that easy either when a person  can't see. You 
 can't exactly do it easily while somebody is touching your hand or force 
 their hand through it, or at least i can't. Besides, a lot of us don't 
 necessarily live where we have another blind person around to show us and 
 from what I understand the gestures sighted people use are somewhat 
 different. At least, none of my sighted friends can do their gestures with 
 vo on.

 Hi.
 
 I haven't followed this discution, but sounds like she have to have someone 
 to show hur phicically how to do it. It can be pretty difficult to explain 
 how to do it, or some people find it difficult to understand without having 
 someone to show them how to do it.

 Yeah, I have a friend who can't do the rotor gesture. She has tried and 
 tried until she has dreams (actually I think she said nightmares) where she 
 is trying to do the rotor so I finally told her to put it on the back burner 
 for a while because it is driving her crazy. She has read the description in 
 the iPhone book from NBP and I've tried to describe it several different 
 ways but she just can't seem to do it.

 Hi again,
 it might sound silly, but although I have been Iphone user for quite a while 
 I still don't know how to use the rotor. I know how to do the gesture I just 
 cannot get it working. When I try the gesture I always open an application. 
 I use the rotor the way that I kind of flick with both hands the opposite 
 ways. It is not very practical. I know it is doable using one hand only.
 Please could you try and explain what I might have been doing wrong and how 
 to get it working using one-hand gesture?
 I hope my question does make sense.
 Thank you for your help.
With regards
 Maria

Re: Question for those using Direct TV

2012-10-31 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey Karen, I have the same app and have the iPad app as well. it shows them on 
the iPhone but you can't access them, and the iPad app is supposed to allow you 
to watch them from your device too but when you select one, it will not play 
through the device. Not sure if that is accessible or not. I'm working with 
Direct Tv to see what's going on and will report back as I hear something. Hope 
that helps at least a little. Take care and talk to you son.

Re: Text App that works well with Voice Over on the new Ipod Touch?

2012-10-26 Thread Timothy Emmons
Never tried Gv conect, I've been using talkatone for a while. Get with me when 
you have time, and let me know what the quality of calls and such are with gv 
connect and if it's worth the price. I'm trying out the premium account for 
talkatone butg I'm always keeping an eye out for something that works good on 
both the iPad and iPod. This seems to be getting a lot of attention of late, 
and I'm actually using it more and more as my cell, it serves a lot of 
different purposes so it's nice. Anyway, give me a yell sometime and let me 
know what you like about Gv connect. Take care.

 I would highly recommend that your friend get a Google voice number. Then you

 The Google voice app itself is free and pretty good. However the one I like 
 better is called GV connect. It is not free, but works much better than the 
 free one. Getting a Google voice number itself is free.

Re: When something else has control of my onscreen keyboard

Guys, you just enlightened me on something I didn't know, and I've been using 
IOs and braille displays for as long as it was supported. I can't believe i 
missed this, and will have to try it. Out of curiosity if you have a bluetooth 
keyboard conected and need the onscreen keyboard, what is the ejet command on a 
regular keyboard. I'll be trying this with my rereshabraille soon. Thanks again 
and take care.

 Not true, the eject function does what he asked. It works for both 
 qwerty keyboards and braille keyboards. I don't know why it's called 
 eject, but basically when you press the eject keys, it brings up the 
 onscreen keyboard despite a hardware keyboard already being connected.

 Hi, I thought that there was an eject cord command for Braille displays.
 I'd suggest opening the keyboard help when you have the display 
 connected and type out various cord commands. I bet that if there is 
 an eject one, it will do what is asked in this thread. I just don't 
 remember what that cord command is since I no longer have a Braille

 paired with the iPhone.

 I wish there was a way on braille displays other than turning them off.

 Listers is there a tap or something I can do when another device 
 has my onscreen keyboard. For example my braille display or wireless
 keyboard.
 I
 find this happens allot and I'm far enough away from the device 
 that has control that I don't want to move to get it, but I want to

Re: Talkatone/Google Voice

2012-10-25 Thread Timothy Emmons
Hey Eric, I use talkatone a lot with my iPad and iPod. If I get a call, and 
this is assuming you have it set up to ring your phone through talkatone, I 
just slide to answer if the device is locked, I have my notifications set to 
alert me when the screen is locked so I can act on them, and I answer that way. 
I hope that works, and if not let me know. Thanks and take care.

 I am having one heck of a time with Talkatone. When my phone is asleep, and I

 Can anyone offer tips for using Talkatone with a Google voice number. The 
 help they give is geared toward visualizing the Google website, so is a 
 little sketchy for those of us using Windows and JAWS.
 
 All thanks in advance!
