Re: Siri Voices On Two Phones

Mostly for payment reasons and the fact I’ve got some apps I’ve purchased that 
are on my accounts she uses also.

She should try to set up her own Apple Id, I assume somehow whatever one 
selects on one device is synced to the other device via the Apple Id.

Is there a particular reason why you want to use the same Apple Id on both 
devices? In my opinion this is asking for problems if two different people use 
the phones.

Hi Folks,

 

I have quite the quandary.  I have two phones, a 6S and an XS, both with my 
Apple I.D. on them, however, one is being used by my daughter and has a 
completely different number from the 6S, which I am using, also with a 
different number.

 

She currently has an Australian male voice on her Siri, and it’s bled over to 
mine.

 

When I changed it on my phone, it changed on hers.  She changed it back to 
Australian male, which also made the change on my phone.

 

Is there a way she can keep her Australian male and I keep my female voice?

Re: Need to replace iPhone 8 looking for pros/cons of iPhone 11 vs iPhone X

[Victor Gouveia]

I also need to replace my phone, but unlike you, my screen is still working, 
what ever scratches there are on the phone doesn't affect the screen.


Regardless, I am personally waiting to see if Apple is going to release this 
new S.E. in the new year, that way, I've got a new phone and it's the same 
form factor as the 8.


If your phone is non-functional, you may have no choice, but if your phone 
is functional, you may want to wait.

I am not replacing my SE for a few months, but as for the Home Button and 
not having it, here is what I figure. I learned to use a touch screen. I can 
learn to use one without a Home Button. I wonder what other kind of strange 
change is eventually in store for us down the road?


I am sorry this probably is not helpful to your quandary, but just a comment

Subject: Need to replace iPhone 8 looking for pros/cons of iPhone 11 vs

Hi,

Recently my Iphone 8 has been suffering from some battery issues (not 
holding a charge), plus two weeks ago the screen cracked, so it looks like 
it is time to upgrade my phone.


According to verizon, I can get an iPhone 11 64gb for the same monthly 
payment I am making now on the iPhone 8.


My questions are:

1.  Have enough of the bugs been shaken out of the iPhone 11 series to make 
it a reasonable choice?

2.  Would the iPhone X series be a better choice?

How hard is it to get used to not having an actual home button?  I know that 
the iPhone X/XR/XS don't have the actual home button, and a friend let me 
try her ipad without the home button and it seemed difficult to navigate 
without the physical button.


Also, which case would everyone suggest for the 11 or X depending on which I 
get?



Any suggestions/reccommendations are greatly appreciated.

SIRI Voice

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Folks,

Not sure if this thread has come through the list yet.  Has anyone had their 
SIRI voice change with the advent of the 13.2.2 update?

As of that update, I no longer have Samantha as my SIRI voice, I have an 
Australian as my SIRI voice.

I know I didn’t make this change, unless my senility has finally caught up with 
he.

Is this a permanent thing, or will this happen again with further updates?

I know, it’s a silly question, and no, I am not expecting an answer, but it’s 
just weird, as other updates have not done this to me, and while I’m not 
worried, unless I can’t change it, it does bother me if I’m going to have faith 
that Apple’s updates will actually fix things, instead of breaking them.

Re: Voice Over Help Please.

[Victor Gouveia]

Janet,

Did you remember to double tap with three fingers to bring the voice back, 
in case you turned it off with your first double tap?


Your original message said you did a three finger double tap to see if you 
turned the Voiceover speech off, but you never said if you did it again, 
just in case you didn't.


In other words, if it was a volume issue, and you turned the Voiceover 
speech off when you did the three finger double tap, if you didn't turn the 
speech on again with the same three finger double tap, then the volume keys 
will not work.


If you did perform the three finger double tap, then disregard my message, 
but if you did not, then try the three finger double tap, then try my 
solution, or, the other solution of using Siri to raise the volume like the 
other person suggested, it may help.

The phone appears to be completely dead!  Although, I did get a phone call,

Music Library

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Folks,

As of this latest update, 13.2, I am finding my daughter’s iCloud library on my 
phone.

First some background...

I have two iPhones, a 6S, which I am using, and an XS, which my daughter is 
using.  Both are using different numbers, but the same Apple I.D., so 
consequently, she’s got Apple Music, and a subscription.

I also use Apple Music, but not the cloud music, I use the stuff I get off my 
computer that is uploaded to the phone.

I have turned off Apple Music in the music settings, and even when my iTunes 
shows the music in my library on my computer, when I sync the music to my 
phone, , it tells me I cannot sync downloaded music to my phone, which is fine. 
 I don’t even know how iTunes on my computer has the music from my daughter’s 
iPhone, since she doesn’t even sync with this computer.

Any ideas as to how I can get this turned off so her music isn’t showing on my 
phone?

I’m finding every second song is hers, even though I’ve set my music to 
shuffle, and I’m not following any playlist, it’s just a shuffling of my music 
on my phone.

Hope I’m explaining this right...

If anyone has a solution for me, I would greatly appreciate it.

I’ve even gone into the iCloud settings, but I can’t find music as one of the 
apps using iCloud.

Anyone have any ideas?

Victor

Voiceover and the Clock

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Folks,

I’m using an iPhone 6S and the latest 13.2 and have noticed that I am unable to 
change tabs within the clock app.

I had to get my sighted daughter to change to the world time tab from the 
alarms tab.

I tried restarting Voiceover, as that usually fixes things when Voiceover 
doesn’t want to interact with an element, but that was no help this time, as 
well, re-starting the phone didn’t help either.

Can anyone else replicate this latest bug?

Thanks.

Re: The iPhone SE2

[Victor Gouveia]

It's easy to say just wait and see, but in my case, not so easily done.

My iPhone 6S is currently giving me really crappy battery life, as I didn't 
upgrade the battery when I should have, so, now, I have to decide whether to 
buy the iPhone 8, or wait for the SE and just change out the battery on my 
6S.


I wish I knew that Apple would give me the SE in exchange for the 8 when it 
was released, but I don't think they do that sort of thing.

If that new phone is true, then that will be the phone for me, as it
would have the home button.  I would need a phone with at least my 256
GB that I've got on my iPhone 8.  One thing I love to do, is to listen
to audio books either mp3 ones that I put onto voice dream reader, or
by using the bard mobile app.  I'm currently listening to The Grapes
of Wrath which if you haven't yet read, I highly recommend.

Re: Questions regarding voice dream reader, and a new problem.

Terri, if you use Facebook, and have not turned off background app refresh, 
Facebook, especially messenger will continue giving you notifications in the 
background while you're doing other stuff.


For an easy fix, you can turn off notifications for Facebook and Facebook

there's nothing you can really do.

Subject: Questions regarding voice dream reader, and a new problem.

Hello everyone,

Are use voice dream reader all the time, to read audiobooks, and to view 
other files. Eventually, I plan to try to read PDF files, or EPUB files. But 
I don???t know when I might start doing this. Anyway, I have noticed an odd 
problem with Voice Dream reader, in the last few days. I wanted to find out 
if anyone might know what???s causing this. Or if anyone else has experienced 
it. For instance,  when I start reading one of my audiobooks, I start 
getting these chiming sounds throughout my reading. The file plays fine. 
There does not seem to be any other problems that I can tell.
However, the chime is usually a single chime, and can be infrequent.  It can 
vary in how often it happens. The chime does change every once in a while. 
Sometimes a double chime will play, almost sounding like a doorbell.


So I was wondering, is anyone else experiencing anything like this?
Why might this be happening? And what can I do about it?

It???s rather annoying, and if I can stop it from happening I would like to do 
so.


Any help is very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Terri

Re: Apple cancels AirPower wireless charging mat, citing quality issues

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Chris,

Believe me when I say that I do not feel sorry for Apple at all.

I don't even use an iPhone anymore because of it's cost, but my daughter is 
using an iPhone 6S for the time being, so I remain on this list to keep up 
with news and trends in accessibility.


Having said that, I actually cheered when QUALCOMM won the lawsuit against 
Apple, so, no, I do not feel sorry for Apple.


I just know, due to various news stories I've read and market trends I've 
noticed, that Apple is getting sued left, right, and center.  Granted, big 
companies do tend to get sued quite a bit, but as Apple is one of the first 
companies to go into the trillions, they're going to be ripe for the 
pickings, frivolous or not.

I'm not sure Apple gets sued any more than the other big guys, and they
bring their own share of law suits. Sounds to me like people are just
feeling sorry for Apple. Remember, no one has provided any evidence that
this product was dropped due to law suits, and the fact that it was
delayed would indicate issues with supplies, quality or other technical
difficulties.

Hi Chris,

No proof, just a hypothesis that seems more and more plausible due to the 
mounting number of patent suits filed against them by one company or 
another.

  One of the most interesting announcements from Apple’s event on Monday 
was the Apple Card. While a number of details about the card were revealed on 
Monday, TechCrunch is out today with a closer look at Apple Card and how it 
works.

  TechCrunch’s Matthew Panzarino explains that the version of Apple Card 
shown on Monday is Apple’s “version 1.” This means that, much like other Apple 
products, the company will be “iterating on the contest with new features and 
benefits.”

  One of the things about Apple Card that Apple touts is that it will offer 
“interest rates that are among the lowest in the industry.” The fine print here 
says that rates will vary between 13 percent and 24 percent, which is rather 
standard in the credit card industry. Panzarino notes of two things Apple will 
be doing to set itself apart here.

  For one, there is no “penalty interest rate” on Apple Card. Apple touted 
on stage on Monday that there would be no fees for late payments, which led 
some to speculate that Apple would increase your interest rate if you were 
late. That isn’t the case.

Penalty rates are an increase of your interest rate if you fail to pay 
on time. That is not true. Apple Card has no late fees and no penalty rates. 
You will continue to pay your agreed upon interest rate on your outstanding 
balance, but that rate will not go up. It will impact your credit score, as 
Apple does do standard reporting.

  Further, Apple will attempt to “place Apple Card users at the low end of 
their interest rate tier.” This means the company will try to “shift you to the 
bottom of a tier when you qualify” as opposed to having you pay the interest 
rate that correlates exactly to your credit score.

  Other details of note include that Apple Card does not require a 
signature, as well as the fact that the physical card has a “fixed number on 
the mag stripe, but you don’t know what it is.” The only thing you see are the 
last four digits. There is also no support for multiple users or shared cards, 
while replacement cards are free. You’ll also have to have two-factor 
authentication setup.

  In terms of security, Apple Card will allow you to generate a new credit 
card number at any time through the Wallet app. Furthermore, your CVV will 
refresh at every transaction.

You can hit a button to regenerate the PAN (primary account number), 
providing you with a new credit card number a

situations where you are forced to tell someone your credit card number but do 
not necessarily completely trust the recipient

Each purchase requires a confirmation code (CVV) that will refresh 
every transaction.

  Last but not least, Panzarino offers some color on why Apple decided to 
base the Apple Card rewards system on cash back instead of points or miles. 
Essentially, Apple wanted “the simplest, most universal benefit structure,” 
which is cash.

detail on Apple Pay Transit and more. Earlier this week, we showed you the 
unique setup process of Apple Card in the Wallet app.

Subject: News Plus Service and News App as it has been

I just called the Apple Disability Support number, 877.204.3930,  as Richard 
Turner suggested because reading news articles has been a difficulty for quite 
some time now, as everyone has indicated since the IOS 12. I placed my comments 
with the support person who answered and expressed a couple of other concerns I 
am feeling about iPhone moving forward for us. You all may already have this 
information, but I was told that going to >apple.com/feedback and submitting 
comments or ideas we might have is helpful to the team looking into these 
issues. He seemed to feel that many improvements and ideas had come from that 
source, and it probably saves the tech support team from having to listen to 
little old ladies and their gripes and concerns about the equipment and 
software.

 

Just thought I would share that in case anyone does not have that information. 
I told him that I was truly not sure what I was going to do moving forward. I 
have the SE. He could not tell me for sure whether that would still be 
supported in IOS 13 or not, telling me they never know these things either 
until they happen. I also told him I would like to see an SE 2 with some 
aspects of updated technology as I was really not interested much in carrying 
something larger or more bulky. Who knows what they do with all of that, but I 
did express my feelings. The representative was personable, professional and 
receptive to hearing. It’s also a quiet environment to call which is a good 
thing as well. I have terrible difficulties calling technical support which is 
noisy in the background, trying to listen to the tech and my device, making the 
entire experience beyond stressful.

 

 

Anyway, just sharing and hope it helps.

 

Thanks.

I signed up for the free month trial of Apple news service. I am a bit 
baffled regarding the list of magazines. I know it’s only the first day

understand why it would appear that I am not seeing the full list of 
magazines. When I go to the end of the very long list, I’m stopped in the 
case of my iPhone ex are with Southern living being the last magazine. 
They are in alphabetical order. On my 7+, which I updated first, I got as 
far as sunset magazine, which should come just after Southern living I 
guess, and no more. I do not see the Wall Street Journal listed, although 
it is a newspaper technically and not a magazine. Same for the Los 
Angeles times. I can’t see articles from those papers, but not the whole 
paper. I was under the impression that we were going to get access to the 
entire thing. The magazines look like the full deal. But those papers are 
not in the listing. I wonder what I’m missing. It looks quite accessible. 
When you double tap on a magazine title, it downloads and you can see the 
full listing of the titles of articles and features. Then you double tap 
on one and you go there. So that part looks good. But I’m just not 
understanding where are the rest of the magazines. Nothing beginning with 
T through Z?

Re: Apple Card announcement today and thoughts of the group

[Victor Gouveia]

I think it may be that Apple realizes that placing their eggs in one basket is 
just stupid business, especially with the decline in Apple sales over the last 
couple of years, and the fact that the iPhone has not changed much between the 
X and the XS and XR could signal a change.

Perhaps not a dissolution of the iPhone and it’s sister products like the iMAC, 
but at some point, someone at Apple is going to have to wake up and realize 
their products are just more expensive versions of other products currently on 
the market.

At least that’s my opinion.

  I read the Apple news brief about their announced Apple Card today and am 
curious what others on the list think about it. I'll say up front that my 
interest in credit cards and similar financial vehicles is first their 
widespread acceptance at the places I hsop and second the amount of rewards I'm 
able to earn when using them. To recap the rewards paid by the new Apple Card:

   

  1.   Items purchased directly from 
Apple using the card earn 3% rewards.

  2.   Items purchased from other places 
using the card with ApplePay earn 2% rewards.

  3.   Items purchased using the 
physical Apple Card without ApplePay earn 1% rewards.

   

  I'm pretty sure I've stated the above correctly but please chime in if your 
understanding is different.

   

  I know we have members from all over the world but my experience in the USA 
with ApplePay hasn't been what I'd call wide acceptance. In fact, Since 
ApplePay has existed, I've only been able to use it a handful of times at 
either a McDonald's or Walgreens. So while I agree that 2% rewards for use of 
the Apple Card is pretty generous, I'm not convinced it will be realizable at 
the places I shop unless ApplePay becomes accepted in a lot more places than it 
currently is.

   

  I'm curious what others on the list think about the Apple Card. I understand 
about companies needing to expand their product offerings in order to generate 
more revenue but I can't say Apple's efforts to expand into News, media 
entertainment production, and financial services generates a feeling of 
confidence for me.

Re: Help with setting up a printer to print from my iPhone

[Victor Gouveia]

There should be an app by the manufacture r of your printer that looks for your 
printer.

You may want to be close to your printer so it can find it remotely via 
Bluetooth or infra-red, then, once it finds it, it’ll look for the printer’s 
wi-fi settings and connect from there.

If it’s an HP, then there’s an HP Smart app that will do all of this for you.

I believe Brother also has this function.

  Once you have the printer on WiFi, just try printing an email or something 
and sea if it finds the printer. 

  Or, as others suggested, see if there is an app that is required.

  You could do a web search for the printer model and printing from an iPhone 
and see what you find.

Re: Audible

[Victor Gouveia]

Richard, has Audible changed this in the last day or so, because when I 
download a book from the Audible sight, the name of the book is clearly printed 
on the file name I download, along with the Audible extension at the end.

Sure, there’s a long string of numbers following the title of the book, but the 
title is always there.

Has this changed in the last week or so?

  Here is what you can accomplish with the measurement app with voiceover 
turned on. 

   

  Let’s say you wish to measure your dining room table. 

1.. Open the measure app. 
2.. Place your  phone back camera facing down over one end of your tablde. 
3.. Touch the middle of the screen  You should hear it say,  add a point” 
it will announce “point at center of screen.” double tap. 
4.. Move to the opposite end of the table. As you move it will announce 
distances

  What Is The Measure App On iOS 12? Here's What You Can Use It For

  By Lucia Petersan.

   

  With the release of iOS 12 on Monday, users of Apple mobile devices of all

  kinds gained access to a ton of new apps and tools - including a surprise

  hit: The "Measure" app. What is the iOS 12 Measure app, you ask? It's both

  exactly what it sounds like, and a whole lot more. Through the magic of

  ARKit 2 - the latest version of Apple's augmented reality development kit -

  you can use your iPhone or iPad to take the measurements of just about

  anything in your environment. Although the idea of an AR tape measurer isn't

  nearly as exciting-sounding as, say, being able to catch a Pokemon in your

  living room, it's one of the more practical applications of AR technology -

  and as some folks have demonstrated on Twitter, you can still have some fun

  with it, too.

  Apple's own Measure app isn't the first of its kind; other developers have

  previously harnessed the power of ARKit's earlier version, which was

  released in 2017 alongside iOS 11, to create similar apps (with varying

  degrees of success). The functionality of Measure isn't new, either -

  although it works through different technology, the end result isn't

  dramatically different from what you can achieve with a laser distance

  measure. 

   

  What Measure does that these other options don't, however, is make this kind

  of tool accessible to anyone with a compatible iOS device. Want to calculate

  the length or area of something that's tough to get a tape measure against?

You might also want to consider what the lack of Apple selling anything lower 
than an iPhone 7 means, because it would seem that lack of support will be 
coming soon for iPhone 6 and down.

I think that’s what happened with the iPhone 4S and below when the 7 came out.

Hi Mitch,

I think the most important question you need to ask yourself is, can you live 
without the 3.5 mm headphone jack. You will definitely lose that by going to 
the seven. If you’re happy with the way things are, maybe you should just sit 
it out for this year. If you feel like you want to upgrade, while this is not a 
bad offer, I would personally ask how much more they would charge to go to the 
eighth instead of the seven.

  Hi Tom,

   

  This is all very good advice. I also advise my clients similarly. Unless the 
new models have something that you absolutely must have, I would stick with 
your iPhone 7 and wait till next year to see what Apple offers up. I am 
currently using an iPhone 7 running the iOS 12 beta and it’s working just fine.

Re: iPhone xs 512gb Space Grey and Watch series 4 on backorder

[Victor Gouveia]

This is not so crazy.

I know phones from LG, Motorola and Samsung will hold SD cards up to half to 
a full terabyte.


I happen to know someone who has to empty her phone every month or so 
because she literally has thousands upon thousands of pictures and videos on 
her phone that she uploads to SnapChat, Instagram and Facebook, and her SD 
card is only thirty-two gigabytes.  Even though I've added the SD card to 
her phone memory to create a sixty-four gigabyte phone, it's still not 
enough, and that's saying something.


There's no doubt, when I talk to her next, she'll be sporting a nifty new 
iPhone.  LOL.

I wouldn't even begin to know what I'd do with 512Gb of storage on my

like to take lots of 4K video or have tens of thousands of songs you want to 
store on your iPhone it makes sense, but for the amount of music listening I 
do on my iPhone I simply stream whatever I want via LApple Music and I don't

Craig, if I'm not mistaken, an iPod Touch has all the same features of an

I was also saying this because if the manufacturers were offering such an
offer, I would take advantage of it in a heartbeat.  LOL.

I'm also kind of really jealous.  I told Sieghard offer-list that until a

offered me six gigs of data, visual voicemail, unlimited calling to the US

almost a decade until I switched to Android and was able to change and get a
better deal with a more local carrier.  I was reading about all the
incredible plans people were getting from the US, and some in Canada, and
that green giant, Jealousy, would inevitably lurch up and chomp my ass for
staying with the same ridiculous plan for so many years.

I only used the term lease for in my estimation that which I'm doing with my

Those are not leases, those are commitments and usually go with plans.

I was under the impression these device leases were separate from the plan,
and one gets to upgrade every year or new release, which ever comes first.

What you describe is no different from the contracts currently offered now.
Is this new terminology being used for commitments or contracts?

Hi,

Re: Harming battery if left on a charger all the time

[Victor Gouveia]

Sieghard, Android just wasn't in my comfort zone at that time two years ago.

I had tried a phone running Android 2.2, and that turned me off, then when I 
tried Android 4.4, Talkback had made great strides in getting better than 
Android 2.2, but again, the accessibility just wasn't as good as an iPhone.


Eventually, I just couldn't ignore how great the unlimited plans were 
getting, and since I hadn't tried Android's Talkback in a few Android 
versions, I got a hold of a newer Android running Android 6.0 and I noticed 
that Talkback had gotten better.


Admittedly, some of the gestures took me some time to get used to, and I 
still haven't gotten fully used to the double gestures, but alas, the 
ability to customize the gestures, the half price, even a third of the price 
phones as good, if not better than the iPhone and the expanded storage just 
became too much of a draw for me, and so, I madder the switch fully last 
month.


I still had to lapse my contract with my current carrier, and besides, my 
wife was using that iPhone, or rather, my daughter was, as my wife and I had 
given the phone to her, and we both adopted the Android way, not to be 
confused with the Jedi sort of way.  LOL.


My point in all of this was that the cheaper companies did not have an 
iPhone as part of their line-up, so I had to buy a phone outright, or adopt 
Android.  Sort of no choice, really.


When one can get an Android phone with the same hardware specs as the iPhone 
from China for only 150 dollars American, you quickly find out how low your 
budget really is.  Sheepish Grin.

Hi Victor,

But what has your plan to do with Android? I have my $49 plan from Koodo 
which of course I was only able to get if I brought a device, but it makes 
no difference if said device is an iPhone or Android phone.
I was on a Telus plan before and had a locked Telus phone, the interesting 
thing is that since Koodo is owned by Telus a phone that Is locked to Telus 
will actually work with Koodo although I did end up with an unlocked iPhone 
6S Plus after I lost mine 2 winters ago in the snow and never found it again 
until the snow was gone 4 months later. Fortunately I have my phone insured 
as a separate item through my home insurance with only a $100 deductable and 
they paid me the full price of what the iPhone 6S then cost, $1,029 and that 
is when I decided to upgrade to a 6S Plus which I bought from an Apple Store 
unlocked. Of course I was still on my 2-year Telus plan, it ended last 
January and then my wife and I switched to Koodo.

Re: Harming battery if left on a charger all the time

[Victor Gouveia]

Robin, didn't mean to offer any offence, I honestly thought there was some 
leasing plan offered by the manufacturer that allowed you to lease your 
phone for a certain amount every month, then upgrade when a new iteration of 
your device was released, sort of like I had wish that Window eyes would do, 
until they quickly went out of business when my Jaws SMA was up.  LOL.


I was also saying this because if the manufacturers were offering such an 
offer, I would take advantage of it in a heartbeat.  LOL.


I'm also kind of really jealous.  I told Sieghard offer-list that until a 
month ago, I was paying upwards of 130 dollars Canadian for my plan which 
offered me six gigs of data, visual voicemail, unlimited calling to the US 
and Canada, and global texting.  I paid that amount for several years, 
almost a decade until I switched to Android and was able to change and get a 
better deal with a more local carrier.  I was reading about all the 
incredible plans people were getting from the US, and some in Canada, and 
that green giant, Jealousy, would inevitably lurch up and chomp my ass for 
staying with the same ridiculous plan for so many years.


What's worse is that on top of that, I was making all kinds of excuses as to 
why I was continuing to pay that much until I realized they were just that, 
excuses.  LOL.

Hi,
Goodness gracious me I wasn't aware I'd walked into a pop quiz on semantics
this night (laughs). While it's true there are early termination fees with
these perhaps more aptly termed plans or contracts as you say since I hadn't
plans to switch carriers or the like they work for me. This year I'll pay
precisely $444 for the use of my device for 12 months plus its associated
sales taxes. the other associated costs of my plan such as line charges data
and other sundry surcharges levied upon us by governmental entities would
remain as they are regardless.
I only used the term lease for in my estimation that which I'm doing with my
device is no different than that which those I know who lease vehicles are
doing in essence hence the use albeit not so precise terminology.  I hope
that clarifies.  By no means am I saying this is the best option for anyone
merely that which I chose and mentioned in the context of explaining why my
battery issues might not mirror those of others due to their age.
Take good care.
  Robin

Those are not leases, those are commitments and usually go with plans.

I was under the impression these device leases were separate from the plan,
and one gets to upgrade every year or new release, which ever comes first.

What you describe is no different from the contracts currently offered now.
Is this new terminology being used for commitments or contracts?

Hi Victor,

 

I hadn’t noticed this yet, but it behaves like this for me as well in iTunes 
12.7.2. Maybe somebody has figured out how to do this, I’d maybe call Apple 
Accessibility because it certainly doesn’t make much sense. It used to be that 
pressing enter after you type a search term would search your library and I 
think shift+enter would search the store.

Anyhow, for me it’s a minor annoyance since first of all I rarely use iTunes to 
play music (I have Sonos) and secondly if I do use it I have it set up to use 
the column browser. This allows me to quickly narrow my selection down by 
artist and album and then only the songs from the artist or album I selected 
are displayed.

To use the column browser you have to make sure you library sidebar selection 
is set to “Songs”, then you can go to the view menu and show/enable the column 
browser.

Sieghard

After I’ve pressed enter, and I re-check the box for my library, the search

Re: Apple Apologizes After iPhone Battery Slowdown Controversy | Time

[Victor Gouveia]

I agree with Malcolm, though not as vehemently.

I also have to think that, while the slow down would have been nice to know 
about, how much more frustrating was it to have your phone powered down for 
no apparent reason.


One thing I noticed that my phone would do was power down when it was 
updating, then I found out it had to do with my phone's storage space and 
how low it was getting.  The problem was that I had to solve the problem on 
my own. It would have been nice to have the device tell me about such 
things, but it didn't do that, it simply shut itself down to delete 
temporary files and active apps.


Deleting temporary files, apps, music and audiobooks helped, and it's no 
longer shutting down, but it was frustrating to say the least.


I would think the shut downs would be a great deal more frustrating then a 
slight slow down, but that's just me, and perhaps Malcolm.  Smile.

Frankly I am rather tired of the Apple bashing that appears to be 
fashionable among  some members.


Not all that long ago you had to spend around £150 to add  Talks to make a 
Nokia device accessible.  If you changed your phone another £50 transfer 
cost was required to transfer Talks to your new device.


An Apple phone costs us no more or less than slighted people you cannot say 
that about many products!  Take Windows alone, access software  costs as 
much or more than the machine itself but who complains?
Yet I would say that VoiceOver gives us more access to iOS features than 
does any Windows screen reader.  Can you compare Narrator with  VoiceOver 
both are screen readers hilt into the operating system but they are light 
years apart.  If your PC was like an Apple device there would be no need for 
JAWS or NVDA.



I have an iPhone5S here and it runs iOS11.2 perfectly well.  How many 
computers of that  age can run Windows10?


You may argue that an iPhone is slower with the latest version of the 
operating system but is this not true with any device no matter what the 
platform is.

I think the point the original poster was making is that Apple started 
main stream accessibility when they made Voiceover part of iOS with the 
iPhone 3GS in 2009. This was only 2 years after the iPhone was first 
released and while I am sure Apple did this partly to maybe have more 
chances for getting government contracts where accessibility needed to be 
available, it still took a bit of vision to do such a deep integration 
both in iOS and MAC OS and of course now in TVOS and Watch OS.
The fact is that Google/Android and now Microsoft are all playing catch up 
as they follow the example Apple set. Before 2009 accessibility as a right 
was not a term you hear, now you do.
I know Pablo that you think Android is so much better and all that and I'm 
sure it's a pretty good experience by now, but I bought an iPod Touch 
third generation in 2009 and remember in those initial years (2009, 2010, 
2011 and so on) when I was also listening to Podcasts and demos of Android 
accessibility and back then it was a joke compare dto iOS.
Prior to 2009 you had to spend about as much as a subsidised iPhone costs 
now to get something like MobileSpeak if you wanted an accessibile 
smartphone of some sort and of course if you count the cost of what 
MobileGeo used to cost let alone KNFB Reader for Symbian what we can get 
now even if you do buy a $1,000 iPhone at full price is pretty amazing. I 
paid that much for MobileSpeak and MobileGeo alone and my Microsoft Mobile 
6.1 smartphone at the time could do a lot less than what my iPhone can do 
now.
KNFB Reader when it was first available for a few Nokia phones I think was 
$1,500.
Of course now with Seeing AI which is completely free my KNFB Reader 
rarely gets used any more since for what I do which mostly is just reading 
a single page or envelope the short text function in the Seeingt AI app 
usually does the job.

But Apple is not the only one who have created accessibility. All these

in IOs. KNFB reader is just $20 for android. Maybe you need to try and

Before you can get the back, forward buttons, you'll have to clear the ok

Re: Word Ladder

[Victor Gouveia]

I just hit the delete key until I've deleted the entire word.

I mean, they're only three to five letters long, and if you're so busy as to 
not have the time to delete the word character by character, then you 
shouldn't be playing games in the first place.  LOL.


If, on the other hand, you're playing against the clock, which I don't think 
is fair for that game given we're at a disadvantage being blind and all, 
then I think the clear button is not there, but if it is, it would be the 
button to the right of the edit field.

Jewel,

In most cases, a bullet marking a clue is a clue that specifically goes to
the ladder's theme.

Sometimes it's a bullet, sometimes it's a special character, and on the very
few occasions, I've had a few where the mark wasn't even noticed by
Voiceover.

There is an edit field, just above the keyboard, which sits just below the
clues, in other words, if you flick through the clues one by one, you'll
eventually get to the edit field, however, as Melanie stated, there is not
an actual spot to enter your answers if your answer is correct, you'll hear
the tone that indicates you've got the answer right.  If you hear no tone,
the answer is wrong.

Unfortunately, short of flicking through the clues one by one, you won't
know which of the clues is correct save by listening to which clue is filled
in.

So, you listen to the clue, input the answer, if you hear a tone, you've got
the answer correct, so you go back up to the clues and read the next clue,
then fill in the answer again, and so on.

Good luck.

Re: Text Message Question

[Victor Gouveia]

I think this may have something to do with the fact that his number is 
integrated into so many apps that the iPhone is taking all those apps and 
compiling the data incorrectly.

For example, it might be using his phone number under the Face Time app, so it 
thinks it’s an iPhone, or Facebook  or Twitter apps might have something to do 
with it.

I would check the Face Time app first, just to make sure that isn’t the issue.

By the way, have you tried calling Apple support or doing a Google search for 
this issue?

  Hi Mike 

  Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.  

   

  When I deleted the entire contact and re-entered the information back into 
contacts, I did select mobile for my son’s phone number.  I even closed or 
turned off my phone off completely and turned it back on before sending a 
message to him.  It is still showing up as an IPhone in the message app.  What 
I mean by this is that when you go to messages and select compose,, the box for 
the text message appears as IMessage rather than text message.  I have only two 
other contacts who do not use IPhones and when you go to compose a text to 
them, they say text message rather than IMessage.  

   

  What I do not get about Apple is how it has a memory like an elephant.  When 
I hit compose to send a text to my son, and I begin typing his name into the To 
field, I get an option to send a text to him along with a sister and a couple 
of cousins from a group text we had going about a month ago.  Even though I 
deleted the group text, it is still appearing when I type his name or my sister 
or my couple of cousins into the to field in a text message.  I have to be 
awfully careful not to pick that as the name I want the message sent.  It could 
be downright humiliating depending upon who I am complaining about lol.  Just 
kidding.  

  Ok, thanks so much for your suggestion.  Hope someone else reads my email and 
has more to add. Have a good evening.

  Hi Kathy,

   

  Basically I think what you want to do is change the iPhone label to, Mobile, 
instead of iPhone.  To do this try the following:

  1. Open your contacts, navigate to your son's entry,, & double tap to select 
it.

  2. Navigate to the, Edit, option, & double tap to open it.

  3. Now swipe right to the,iPhone button, & double tap to open it.  This is 
where you change your son's phone label.  Swipe to the, Mobile, option, & 
double tap to select it.

  4. Find the, Done, button & double tap it to save your settings & you can 
close your contacts.

  I'm not 100% sure this is what you need, but if I'm wrong someone will 
correct me.  I believe you can leave iMessage checked as well.

  Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Re: IPad Pro 10.5

[Victor Gouveia]

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this or not, but are you aware of the 
different types of USB ports on your computer?


A good rule of thumb is to get the specifications of your computer, and see 
what type of ports they are, whether they are USB 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, USB C, and 
I forget the other kind.


If you have an older computer, then it might be possible that you have the 
former, USB 1.0, and those types of USB ports do not charge devices, they 
only form an attachment to your device from your computer.


USB 2.0 is the standard type of port that started charging, but even those 
were often hit or miss in the early years.  It wasn't until the later years 
that 2.0 became the standard, followed quickly by the USB 3.0, which is what 
most computers come with these days.


In any case, see what sort of ports you have, and go from there.

I would not trust some guy on the phone, especially if the iPad comes 
standard with a USB cable.  It simply can't be there for just transferring 
from iTunes.

Re: Seeing AI and scanning documents

Can you outline what justifies your paranoia?

I've never seen anything that says Microsoft actually does this.

Microsoft is probably selling your data in exchange for providing a free

you share with Seeing AI.

You will note that the heading level was kept, and the bullets, not
to mention the accuracy.
VoiceOver Gestures
* Practice Mode: Four finger double tap, Puts
VoiceOver in practice mode so you can practice gestures without
opening or changing anything.
* Select and speak the item: Touch with one finger.

If you slide your one finger without lifting it, you can explore what
is on the screen without changing or opening anything.
* Select the next or previous item: Swipe right
or left with one finger.
* Read all from the top of the screen: Two-finger
swipe up.
* Read all from the current position: Two-finger
swipe down.
* Stop or resume speaking: Two-finger touch.
* To dismiss an alert or go back to the previous
screen: Twofinger scrub: Move two fingers rapidly in a small circle
or slide two fingers back and forth three times quickly (making a "z")
* Speak Screen: Touch the status bar with one
finger and swipe down with two fingers; only works if Speak Screen is
turned on in settings, general, accessibility, speech. VoiceOver will
continue reading even if the screen is locked.
* Scroll one page up or down at a time:
Three-finger swipe up or down.

In Email, if you touch somewhere in the list of emails, then swipe
down with three fingers, it will refresh the Email list and get any
new messages.
* Three-finger swipe right or left. For example):
Go to the next or previous page (on the Home screen.
* Open Notification Center: touch the status bar
and swipe down with three fingers.


Now, if they add the ability to save multi-page documents, for me,
this will replace KNFB Reader hands down.

Re: Retrieving Deleted Text Messages

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Rick,

There are apps that will do this for you, but they are inaccessible to the 
blind, at least the ones that I know of.


If you've got some sighted assistance, let me know, and I'll dig out my 
list.


Keep in mind that I can' rightly remember if they are paid or free apps, 
though I think you may get more functionality if you pay, but I can't be 
sure of that.


Either way, they are not blind friendly and requires sighted assistance. 
Not even Jaws OCR function reads them.

Re: Skype and IPhone

[Victor Gouveia]

I don’t believe a phone number has anything to do with the Skype service.

You can purchase a plan and use their service exclusively for about twenty 
bucks a year and get US and Canadian Unlimited calls to land and cell phones, 
and still a number is not necessary.

Even if you use their SMS service, it’s done through your Skype account, not 
your cell phone number.

Re: Uber app experience getting increasingly bad

[Victor Gouveia]

I think it should be noted that companies may have their headquarters or 
head offices in the United States, but they may outsource their customer 
service telephone calls and assistance to third world countries that pay 
cents on the dollar per hour to their workers instead of the minimum ten 
dollars per head an hour in North America.


So, I think people ought to watch what they say because most large companies 
are outsourcing their customer assistance calls to India, The Philippine 
Islands and Pakistan.


I know for a fact that Microsoft does it, A T & T does it, and a host of 
other companies like Wind Mobile here in Canada.

are mostly from third world countries, not America.

Not sure how you managed to get 3 managers to call you, you must have
been lucky. But the majority of people who are denied rides due to
having service animals do you get anything besides a generic response
with Uber, and also Lyft.

"Now, all 3 managers also confirmed that when they credit your account 
with

the credit, they also will notify you of the drivers outcome."

This goes against their privacy policy, according to an agent. So no,
that is not factual.

Anyways, if they see that indeed the driver did accept to take service

But yes, the app is absolutely sluggish on iOS. There's not even a way

I know there are people in their "accessibility" team who are working on

I don't understand how this devolved into an argument over which is better, 
iPhone, or Android.


The fact is, each has benefits above and beyond the other, and there is no 
clear winner.


Just like if you come across a blind Android user, they'll say that the 
Android is more accessible, and the iPhone user will state the opposite.


I simply pointed out that Mary could not make such a blanket statement with 
providing a factual basis for her statement.  I outlined what was wrong with 
her statement, and I've moved on from there.


I've no idea how we've gotten into this devolved argument again.

I've noticed that this argument comes across every few months and I don't 
understand why.


Every one has read the benefits of each OS, and it's all subjective, in the 
end.

This is just my opinion, but I've used both Apple and Android, and I
find Android to be the better platform. I appreciate it's openness and
customizability. I like the widget support it's had for years. I like
the variety in form factors. Android does have trouble with
fragmentation though, but I'm willing to put up with this for the
benefits I perceive.

Apple is a great product and a great ecosystem. I used it for years
before I thought Android accessibility had caught up enough to make the
jump possible. I still use an iPhone for work.

I think either platform is great depending on what you're looking for
and how you use your phone. I think choice is good, and I don't think
people need to get defensive when talking about the brand they chose to
use or put down the other options. I for one hope both platforms get
better and more accessible.

gains a little bit of marketshare. Waymore phones have android on them
then there are iPhones. And that makes exactly no difference, because
the vast majority of the actual money being made is being made by

Sorry, Victor. I am not confused. I know the difference between profit and 
market share. One, profit, is relevant if you're a business. Two, marketshare, 
is not relevant at all if you're not making any money. You will go out of 
business if you do not make money. Eventually, whoever is subsidizing all of 
your losses will get tired of it, and you will go away. It's that simple. If 
you get complacent, then you won't be selling as many hi profit margin 
products, and then you have a problem. But since I just saw an article that 
talked about how the-year-old iPhone 6s sold more than Samsung's top two phones 
of last year, the S7 and S7 edge, I don't think Apple has anything to worry 
about in the complacency department.

Most of them make no profit. Companies don't stay in business forever if they 
don't make a profit.

  Hi Victor,

   

  I am not sure if Apple could keep their walled garden concept and offer SD 
card expansion slots. If you allow people to introduce media on an SD card then 
the OS must have access to the folders or maybe it would be more accurate to 
say that Apple would have to give users access to what is on the SD card and 
that would possibly defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform. 
Any SD card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of latency 
in how fast things get loaded and I think this all goes against what Apple 
wants to achieve. I think actually that even some high-end Android phones are 
moving away from that, but I might be wrong, just something I heard. Does the 
Google Pixel for example have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion 
slot on an iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but 
having it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there hardly is any 
space left as is and of course making a highly waterproof or water resistant 
device would probably be much more difficult if the device had an SD card slot 
Personally I have no problem with Apple offering internal memory, I totally 
agree that nowadays 16 Gb doesn’t get you far, but I wonder how many people 
still buy 16 Gb devices if they can get a 64 Gb device (4 times the space) for 
$100 more.

  Apple Introduces Cheapest iPad Yet, Special Edition Red iPhone
  More stories by Alex Webb

  Apple Inc. introduced a revamped version of its most popular-sized iPad at 
the cheapest price yet, and a shiny red iPhone 7, whose sales will help to 
combat AIDS.

  Apple unveiled a new 9.7-inch iPad with a brighter Retina display starting at 
$329, and a special edition red-aluminum finish iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, 
part of the company’s decade-long partnership with (RED), which contributes to 
the Global Fund to fight HIV and AIDS.

  “Since we began working with (RED) 10 years ago, our customers have made a 
significant impact in fighting the spread of AIDS through the purchase of our 
products, from the original iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition all the way 
to today’s lineup of Beats products and accessories for iPhone, iPad and Apple 
Watch,” Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said in a statement Tuesday.

  Apple is the world’s largest corporate donor to the Global Fund, contributing 
more than $130 million, the company said.

  Apple is expected to reveal a significant upgrade to the iPhone later this 
year.
  Cupertino, California-based Apple last year unveiled a new iPhone which 
reignited sales growth in the Christmas quarter after a year of declines. Those 
falling sales came even as Apple introduced a cheaper handset in March in an 
effort to spur growth in emerging markets. The only sales growth in the 2016 
fiscal year came from the services business, which includes Apple Music and the 
App Store, and the other products category.

  Apple shares rose less than one percent to $142.55 at 10:24 a.m. in New York. 
Earlier they hit a new intraday high of $142.80.



  The new iPad starts at $329 for 32GB with Wi-Fi and $459 for 32GB Wi-Fi plus 
cellular. It will be available to order starting March 24 in the U.S. and more 
than 20 other countries and regions. The iPhone (RED) models will be available 
in 128GB and 256GB models starting at $749 from March 24. Apple also announced 
new storage capacity for the iPhone SE. That 4-inch display model will now be 
available in 32GB and 128GB models, doubling the current capacity and replacing 
the previous models.

  Other product launches Tuesday include a new app called Clips, that helps 
people combine video clips, photos and music that can be shared through social 
media and messages. Apple also said its Swift Playgrounds iPad app, which helps 
students learn to code, is available in five additional languages: Japanese, 
French, German, Spanish and simplified Chinese.

I'm intrigued by this notion of a recumbent bike, and more so to pair with 
an iDevice.  I've not come across either, would still
like a bike with feedback, preferably the sort to occupy the mind or 
attention long enough, not just raw stats.  I get fed up with
just counting, and don't work to a clock. I think it was the mid-70s, early 
80s at the outside, when computer games were new,
they'd hooked an exercise machine to one as input, so had to peddle or pedal 
or row or whatever not to lose the game absolutely.

This idea appeals if such exists out there somewhere.

This could be an idea for adolescents to get out of their gaming chair with

Usually the iAssociate game controller inserts symbols such as

have run into a problem with a dollar sign.
The answer to the association is Ke$ha, but I can't get it to accept the 
dollar sign.
At first, I just typed in Keha expecting that the dollar sign would be, 
automatically entered, but
when I found that this didn't happen, I opened an alternative keyboard, 
located the dollar sign,
double tapped it and then went back to the letters keyboard and typed in ha, 
but, no joy!  the

dollar symbol had not gone in.
Any ideas of what I should do to fill in the word?

Hi Terri,

Just so we can be clear, when you refer to the older connection, are you

This might help in your search.

Hello everyone,

I could use some help, if anyone would be willing?

I told you all earlier, that I purchased a couple of older Iphone chargers, 
and that I couldn't take them back. I learned from you all, what it was that I 
needed to purchase, in order to use the chargers.
However, I can't seem to find them on Amazon, no matter how I search. It's 
getting rather frustrating, to say the least.
I bought 1 a while back, in 2016. So I tried looking at my previous orders. 
But for whatever reason, that's not listed. Well nothing was, actually. Which I 
found odd.

I was wondering, would someone be willing to go to Amazon, and please find 
what I need? Then just send me the link?

I would appreciate any help. I don't want 1 from Apple. I just want 1 quite 
affordable. The cheaper the better really, as I need 2 of them. Plus, I am in 
the process of moving. So as long as they will work, this is what matters most.

Again, any help would be very much appreciated. I am beyond frustrated!

Thank you,

Terri

Re: IPad Mini 4

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Evan,

I agree with you.

I have a desktop computer that is at least three to four years old, while my 
daughter uses my laptop that is only a year old and much, much faster.


Either way, it's still a great computer to use and so I use it on a daily 
basis.


I happen to know that there are people I know that are still using a 
computer with Windows XP on it.  They don't use Internet Explorer, and just 
use Firefox, and they can't even get iTunes installed on it because the 
latest version won't support it.


Regardless of that, one does find that apps tend to get more and more 
sophisticated and processor intense, and so end getting slower and slower. 
The device ends up taking longer and longer to load apps, and the simplest 
functions end up getting more difficult and time consuming.


I agree with your mindset, as long as it will run it, why the heck not and 
keep using a tried and true device.


I'm still using a 4S and have no intention of upgrading to the 7, least of 
all it's lack of a headphone jack.  Smiles.

Okay, okay, that might be true theoretically, but the real question is, what
apps do people want or need to use that a given device can't run because it
is too slow or for some other reason is outdated. That is the only practical
question. If there are significant numbers of apps, or even a few, that a
lot of people want or need that they can't run on their device, then the
device is for all practical purposes obsolete. But if there are none, or at
least none that people really want or need that it can't run, then what
practical difference does it make how old it is?

Hi Larry,

 

I hate to say this, but I’m thinking there’s another problem with your system, 
not necessarily with Windows or iTunes...

 

I have just tried going to various parts of the iTunes window and I was able to 
get to the view options from any point.

 

Ok, I just pulled up iTunes and have discovered something that might not have 
occurred to me.  Have you been in the phone or device view this whole time?

 

In other words, after tabbing through the iTunes window, right after the media 
button, did you press the button right after that for your device, whether it 
be an iPhone, iPad, iPod or what have you?

 

If so, you can’t access the view options from there.

 

You have to tab to the back button until you get to the iTunes library on your 
computer, not your device.

 

Once there, you’ll be able to manipulate the view options from there.

 

So, tab around, to the back button, and keep hitting your spacebar until the 
back button disappears.  Once it disappears, you’ll be in the view for your 
iTunes library on your computer.

 

At that point, press control+J, or press alt+V, followed by the letter O and 
that will take you to the View Options.

 

At that point, tab down and you’ll here Jaws say, “view options”.

 

>From there, tab down to change your preferences.

 

Hope this solves your problem.

Re: Viewing Apps in iTunes with Jaws solved

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Larry,

I think we should compare our iTunes window to see if they are the same.

All iTunes windows have a search field, so we’ll start from there.

Tabbing from there lands me on a search options button, followed by the media 
button, which form me, currently says music.  To change it, press your spacebar 
and arrow up or down to music, depending on where you are on the list.

Tabbing from there, lands me on a series of checkboxes beginning with library, 
connect, radio and store.

Tabbing from there lands me on the sidebar, and jaws speaks out, “Library 
Sidebar Tree View”, followed by the option you currently have focus on, which 
in my case is songs.  Tab again and you land on another sidebar option and mine 
says library.  Tab again and you land on the Sidebar edit button.

You can change what appears in this tree view by pressing the spacebar on the 
edit button and tabbing through the checkbox list and checking and unchecking 
the ones you want to appear.  As I said, I currently only have mind checked on 
songs.

Tabbing from here you land on another sidebar option, and this one is set to 
show all playlists, and another tab lands on the hide button, to hide this 
feature.

Tabbing once from this button lands you on a multi level list view, and this is 
where you have all the songs, or, depending on how you have your view set up in 
the sidebar options, your library items.  In my case, it’s a list of all the 
songs I’ve currently got in my library, begging in a a to Z list.  A’s at the 
top, and Z’s and numbered items on the bottom.

I think we’ll stop here to compare, and let’s see if your iTunes experience 
matches mine to see where the differences are, and if we can get your to look 
like mine.

Hi Victor,

 

Thanks for pointing this out, I also had not noticed that there are the two 
different views, but I'll definitely file this away for the future and 
hopefully this will also help Larry who was another person who was not able to

Hi Folks,

 

AT one point, we had gotten messages of people being able to scroll through 
their installed apps on their various devices with the latest release of iTunes 
12.

 

Some people, such as myself, were at a loss as to why it wasn’t working for 
some people, especially me.

 

I’m happy to say that this problem has been resolved.

 

It would seem that you must go into your view options and select list view  
instead of grid view.

 

Once I did this, my issues were solved, and I could now select and de-select 
various apps to install and uninstall on my phone.

 

Thanks go to Sieghard for giving me the incentive to keep looking for a 
solution.

Re: Viewing Apps in iTunes with Jaws solved

[Victor Gouveia]

You can also find the view options in the view menu with alt+V, then arrow down 
to “Show View Options” and press enter.

Regardless if which choice you exercise, the above or pressing the keystroke of 
control+J, you’ll have to wait a few seconds or so for the view options dialog 
box to pop up.

When I activate my view options, Jaws does or says nothing to let me know that 
the dialog box has popped up.  Whether this is Jaws’ fault or iTunes fault, I 
don’t know, but if you give it a few seconds or so, tab around the Jaws should 
say, “View Options”.  If you keep tabbing, you’ll hear Jaws say, “View As”, 
then tab once more, you’ll get to a list box with the option to show as grid 
view or list view.

If you keep tabbing you get to the sort order, what you want to show, in other 
words, what you want Jaws to speak upon landing on an item and stuff like that.

Once you’re done. there’s no OK button or anything, just close it with alt+F4 
and go back to your list of items in iTunes.

Hope this helps.

Cher and Larry,

 

Let me say up front that I'm running iTunes for Windows 12.5.4.42 on my Windows 
7 desktop.

 

When I launch iTunes, it comes up with music as the selected media. To switch 
to apps, press ctrl + 7. Above the main screen where content is displayed are 
three folder tabs or buttons, Library, Updates, and App Store. You want Library 
to be selected which you should be able to tab to. Once library is selected, 
you should be able to invoke the view options by pressing ctrl + J. The first 
item in the dialog which opens is view as where you should select list. There 
are other sort and tickboxes to select what you want displayed about the apps 
library. Press ctrl + J when you're done. I assume you can set view options for 
other media content too such as music following the above steps.

 

I hope this helps but post back if you have more questions.

Selecting Device Apps From Within iTunes

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi All,

I read the good news that Sieghard wrote about the latest version being able to 
select and deselect apps on the device for installing, but I can’t seem to be 
able to get a list.

When I go to apps in my library, I get an information message that my apps will 
be listed in that particular area, but there are no apps there.

When I go to my device and select the apps page, I am able to see the list of 
folders, however, when I shift+tab to the apps list, it seems to be empty.

Sieghard, what is your secret for making it compatible with Jaws?

Thanks.

Audio descriptions should work in Netflix if you have the audio

Re: Audio Description and Netflix

[Victor Gouveia]

I think this has to be set separately from within the Netflix app, not 
within the iOS settings.

Hi Terri,
Audio descriptions should work in Netflix if you have the audio descriptions 
setting turned on. It depends if the movie you are watching has audio 
descriptions added. At least that's how it works on iOS.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS

I never said I want them “all” gone.  I said that most of the apps like Home, 
Health, Stocks, and Entertainment are simply useless.

 

Therefore, you are missing something.  Yes, you have the wrong impression that 
I want them all gone.  Not true!

 

That is why I said Apple is really screwed up anyway.  They do not know what

  Hi John,

   

  I usually move all the apps I don’t use or use extremely rarely to whatever 
the last home page is for me, in my case it is page 4. Now that so many apps 
can be deleted there are very few that go on that page. Stocks and iBooks are 
two examples, both can be deleted but I keep them just because occasionally a 
PDF needs to open in iBooks or I may in fact want to know how a particular 
stock is doing. This way they are out of the way where I never need to go which 
to me is even better than putting them into a folder which I then have on a 
home page I do use. I wouldn’t even call this bloatware, apart from essential 
apps there are only a few which can’t be deleted. Yes, Health is one of them, 
for me that is OK because I use it frequently and I’m pretty sure quite a few 
of us on this list do use it on a pretty regular bases as many of us have 
compatible devices like scales or blood pressure monitors etc. Anyhow, judging 
from the responses I have seen it would that only one person has a real issue 
with the fact that there are maybe 2 or 3 apps which can’t be deleted, as 
Christopher said, if we start getting into minor details like that .there must 
be very few major ones.

 Again, Todd, because you or I might not have any use for them, it doesn’t 
mean that others don’t use them. Move them into a folder as I’ve done with the 
apps I don’t use. You can tell Apple accessibility all you want, but it doesn’t 
change the fact you are a single user and there are millions of others who make 
use of the apps you or I may not consider important or useful. Apple is far 
from the only company who unfortunately has what might be called bloatware on 
their systems. I agree with you that it would be nice to have the ability to 
delete some apps, but I also understand why this isn’t the case. Thus, again, 
that’s why you can create folders.

Re: Latest version of iTunes with windows 10 and jaws for windows

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Sieghard,

You may be right about that.  I have mine set to sync my entire playlist, and 
in terms of apps, I delete them manually off the phone.

I stand corrected and apologize for my misstatement.  Smiles.

Subject: RE: Latest version of iTunes with windows 10 and jaws for windows

Hi Victor,

 

Connect your phone, then go to your device and either to music, apps or tones, 
check to sync selected items (in music or tones) and then try to select artists 
or albums or tones or, in the case of apps, try to select apps to sync.

None of this works any more.

Furthermore, I like to set my view to Songs and then turn on the column browser 
so I can select a particular genre, artist or album. Jaws does not read 
anything in All three of these lists (genre, artist and album). OK, let’s say 
on my new laptop it doesn’t, on my old one it seemed to sometimes work, but it 
would always say “L1” or something like that along with whatever it read.

In a way I don’t care too much about it any more since now that I have Apple 
Music I typically don’t sync my entire music library to my phone any more, apps 
I can download from the App Store and in a pinch I can manage my tones 
manually. I can still select to sync all tones easily enough so my work-around 
is to have one folder with all my ringtones and this folder I don’t add to my 
iTunes library. I then have another folder and all tones in this folder I add 
to my library and thn I simply sync all tones. If I want to get rid of some I 
just go to the tones library in iTunes and delete the ones I no longer want and 
then resync. If I want to add tones I copy them into this folder, add it to the 
library again and then rsync.

 

If you can select tones and apps with Jaws 18 and the latest version of iTunes 
you are the only one I know of who can do it and you really should do a Podcast 
and show all of us how it can be done.

 

Take care,

Sieghard

Re: Netflix

Not quite sure what you mean by you haven't found one yet.

Off the top of my head, I can name five, Marvel's Daredevil, Fuller House, 
Marvel's Luke Cage, Marvel's Jessica Jones, Master of None, and the 
Goldbergs.


All of these Netflix shows have description, and Daredevil's into it's 
second second season, all described.  The third season should be released 
soon to coincide with the fall line-up of all the major networks.


These are just a handful of shows of the top of my head.

There are probably others that I wasn't interested in that are up there 
also, so please don't tell me that you can't find any that are described.

I have a couple questions on getting started with Netflix.

Would I be better off setting it up from my Windows laptop and then

If I'm not mistaken there is a plan that allws use of two devices.  Do I

log in from either the phone or computer, depending on which I wish to

Re: Netflix

[Victor Gouveia]

So you'd rather pay the price for cable, with only 4% of it's content 
described?


Sorry, but that won't happen.  Also, more and more of what Netflix puts out, 
is being described, whereas cable's contributions are stagnantly staying at 
4%, at least for the foreseeable future, according to legislation in the US, 
and since most of Canada's content comes from the US, I don't see it 
improving for Canadians either.

Re: iPhone 7: How to force restart, enter Recovery Mode, and enter DFU mode

It’s a mode on your phone that allows it to have iOS installed over the

I think it stands for disfunctional unit, but don’t quote me on that.  LOL.

Hi, again. My message bounced back to me earlier today. What is DFU mode? I'm 
simply not familiar with what that is. All the best, Brian

On Sep 19, 2016, at 3:49 PM, Mary Otten  wrote:


  iPhone 7: How to force restart, enter Recovery Mode, and enter DFU mode

  9to5Mac  /  Jeff Benjamin



  Since the Home button on iPhone 7 isn’t a mechanical button anymore, and is 
instead a capacitive solid-state button controlled by software, it’s no 
surprise that performing hard resets, entering recovery, and entering into DFU 
mode no longer works the same way on iPhone 7.

  The good news is that you’ll only need to adopt a new button combination to 
perform each of these tasks. Have a look at our full video walkthrough, and 
we’ll show you how. 

  How to force restart iPhone 7
  To force restart (hard reset) the iPhone 7, press and hold the Sleep/Wake 
button + Volume Down button for 10 seconds. Because of the Home button change, 
it’s been replaced by the Volume Down button during the process.

  The side-effect to this method is that the Volume HUD appears on screen each 
time you wish to force restart the iPhone 7. Not a big deal, but not as 
“clean-looking” as in the past.

  How to get into Recovery Mode on iPhone 7
  Step 1: Connect your iPhone 7 to your Mac or PC with a Lightning to USB cable.

  Step 2: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button until 
the screen turns off. Continue holding the Sleep/Wake button + Volume Down 
button, even after you see the Apple logo appear.

  Step 4: Release the Sleep/Wake + Volume Down button once you see the Connect 
to iTunes message appear on the iPhone 7’s screen.

  Step 5: Launch iTunes, and you should see a message stating that “There is a 
problem with the iPhone that requires it to be updated or restored.”

  Video tutorial

  Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more iPhone 7 videos

  How to get into DFU mode on iPhone 7
  Getting into DFU mode, as you can probably guess, also requires a change.

  Step 1: Connect your iPhone 7 to your Mac or PC with a Lightning to USB cable.

  Step 2: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button 
simultaneously for 10 seconds.

  Step 3: Release the Sleep/Wake button while continuing to hold the Volume 
Down button for 10 additional seconds. Unlike Recovery Mode, which presents a 
Connect to iTunes message on the screen, the iPhone 7’s screen will remain 
blank while in DFU mode.

  Step 4: Launch iTunes, and you should see a message stating that “iTunes has 
detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can 
be used with iTunes.”



  The Volume Down button takes on an additional role on iPhone 7

  How to exit Recovery mode or DFU mode on iPhone 7
  As long as there are no issues with your iPhone, getting out of Recovery Mode 
or DFU Mode is easy.

  Step 1: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button 
simultaneously until you see the Apple logo appear (or the connect to iTunes 
message disappear when in Recovery Mode). You iPhone should boot back to the 
Lock screen.

  Although there is no longer a mechanical Home button on the latest iPhone, 
it’s still relatively easy to force restart, enter Recovery Mode, and enter DFU 
mode by strategically wielding the Volume Down button + Sleep/Wake button 
combination.

No, not wireless adapters, but wired adapters that hook into the lightning port

Re: Trouble with ring tones

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Chris,

I think maybe it is, just with a different title then you're looking for.

Try editing the meta information for the file by going into the Get Info 
option of the file in iTunes before you sinc it, and make sure the 
applicable titles, artists and so on are correct.

Subject: Trouble with ring tones



I made a ring tone from a song I have that was a total of 36 seconds.  The 
file extension is m4r.
I dropped it in the automatic iTunes folder, and when I open up iTunes, it 
is there under Ring Tones as it is suppose to be.  But when I sync my iPhone 
with iTunes, for some reason it does not show up on my phone.


Things I have tried:
Syncing it multiple times, even after restarting my phone as well as iTunes.

Just to see if iTunes was syncing correctly, I deleted some ring tones from 
iTunes, then synced my phone again to see if those ring tones would be 
deleted from my phone, and yes, they were.
So if anyone knows why this ring tone is not syncing to my phone, please let 
me know!


Chris

Re: Best list for that OS that must not be named

You might also want to go over to inclusive android.  It's all about android 
from a person with a disability's perspective, and it's got loads of 
tutorials, both audio and written, game and app directories, and where to 
get started.


I'm also looking to make the switch, and this is where I got all my

Hi good people.
Following the recent discussion on this list concerning the accessibility of 
Android, the thought crept into this fundamentalist
Apple Taliban to maybe have a look at that other alien system, partly for 
the benefit of myself and partly to help my sister who has
both a Samsung Galaxy phone and a Samsung Galaxy pad. The operating systems 
are somewhat similar but a bit different still. I heeded
the advise of some people on the list and read Jonathan Mosens excellent 
article on the accessibility of Android.
To make this long and definitely off-topic rant a bit briefer i just want to 
know which list is the best for hearing about the
accessibility of that other heathen operating system and where there’s no 
unnecessary Apple bashing? Anyone knows?
Again sorry for posting this off-topic rant here, and if the moderators want 
to take steps, by all means do so, only reason i post
here, i say to my defence is that i couldn’t think of anywhere else to go 
with my query.

Thanks.

Re: Installing OSX on windows as a VM?

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Sieghard,

I have to take exception with your statement that people buy the MAC because 
it's better hardware.


Don't know whether you're serious when you make that statement or not, but 
Apple computers don't use hardware any different from a standard IBM 
compatible/Dell/HP computer.


In other words, the hardware is exactly the same.

it would only take a user to partition his or her drive into two partitions, 
format one partition for Windows, and the other for Mac.


Once done, you can install what ever OS you want on each partition.

Once installed, you can run the Windows OS, with a OS10 virtual machine, or 
run and OS10 computer, with a Windows virtual machine.


From what I hear, the former is easier because Windows doesn't make you jump 
through any hoops with Virtual machine set up, meaning no extra software 
needed, though I really can't speak to that experience, whereas MAC's have 
to install separate software and set it all up, but again, I really can't 
speak to that.


Regardless, if you open up a MAC you'll notice nothing different from a 
Windows computer.


Fact is, it's all in the software, which I have to admit, is slightly better 
than Windows software, and I've heard that MAC's have excellent graphics, 
but Windows isn't as limiting as MAC OS, otherwise, why require a Jailbreak 
in order to do any serious work with it, but I'm reaching into the land of 
conjecture now, so I'll quit.


Either way, statements such as yours are purely baseless.

Victor

OK, so I didn't know this, apparently it can be done, but it seems to 
require jumping through more hoops than one would have to when installing 
Windows on a Mac. Also, the article you provided a link for mentions this:


Before we start, we should tell you that Apple’s licence for OS X expressly 
forbids it being installed on anything other than a Mac, so if you choose to 
do it, don’t say we didn’t warn you.


I was always under the impression people want a Mac because it's considered 
to be better hardware and of course also because of the OS. Therefore I 
think if one wants a Mac then why not buy one instead of trying to recreate 
an experience which in all likelihood won't be as good.

While you can install Windows on a Mac, I don't think you can install

Re: Word Ladder

[Victor Gouveia]

Jewel,

You do realize that there are three or so number of pages within the game 
packs, right?


Unfortunately, the developer, whom I've been in contact with, has been 
notified that Voiceover does not change the pages, so I'm afraid the only 
remedy for this is to turn Voiceover off, then swipe from right to left at 
the bottom of the screen.


This will turn the page, and Voila, many more games to go.

I'm sorry, I thought you had noticed the page one of three at the bottom of 
the screen.


Let me know how it goes.

Subject: Word Ladder

I have asked this question before, and if there was an answer, I did not see 
it.
Finding the daily game is simple and straightforward, but finding others 
that I have not, already,

played is very time-consuming and is a real pain in the neck.
It would be lovely if, once a game has been completed, it could be marked as 
having been so, and it
was deleted from the list, but, as far as I know, there is no way of doing 
this.
I have tried opening different game packs, and double-tapping a number, but 
this is very unreliable
and it rarely results in me being shown a game that I have not played:  and 
I know that there are

oodles of these.
 If I go right down the list until I reach game pack 28, no matter what 
number I tap on, I am,
invariably, presented with game 1124, and, I can tell you frankly, that I am 
getting, heartily,

sick and tired of game 1124! not that I ever play it.
Last night, I tried going beyond game pack 28, and came to new games coming 
soon, a promise that, I
fear, is very long in the keeping, but I was presented with games that I had 
played, although, I
must say, that they were ones that I had played long ago, but which were, 
still, vaguely familiar.

Has anyone discovered if there is a way of clicking on unplayed games?

Re: Quick way to delete contacts

[Victor Gouveia]

Hi Jewel,

I stand corrected.

I just looked, and the duplicate contacts apps are under productivity apps.

There are several ones there, some are paid apps, and some are free.

I actually purchased cleanup Dupes, and it's served me well for a couple of 
years.


It does matches, and percentage matches, in other words, contacts that look 
the same, but they won't merge until you give the go ahead, either for each 
one, or for all of them.  I do believe that the partial matches are sorted 
by percentage matches, in other words the 25% matches are listed so you can 
verify whether they are matches or not, or the 50% matches and the 75% 
matches, etc... .


It can be done manually, or automatically, running in the background.

You can either do a search in the app store for cleanup dupes, or check out 
the apps on applevis.com under the productivity apps list, as I believe 
cleanup dupes is listed there.

There are apps listed on Applevis that are completely accessible that will
merge all your contacts so that you don't have multiple contacts for the
same person.

I had the same problem...

I had telephone numbers in one contact, and e-mails in another, and some had
addresses in another contact.

Boil it all down, the searches took forever.

In any case, check the App section of Applevis, and under the utilities
section, I think, there are apps that will do this.

Good luck.

I have done many stupid things in my 77 years, but, surely, the most stupid
would have to be when I
acquired an iPhone exactly 1 year ago, a year that has been full of
frustration and tribulation!
yeah--yeah--yeah!  I can hear a huge outcry from many who think otherwise,
but that is my opinion
and I haven't found any reason to change it!
I am having a hell of a job trying to get my contact list straightened out
of the mess that it has
got into.  I wish that my monstrosity would delete as easily as Terri has
found it to be, though one
contact at a time.  I open a contact that I wish to edit and press delete
until I am in danger of
getting repetitive strain injury, but does it delete?   no fear!  there it
stays, grinning at me!

Subject: Quick way to delete contacts

I know how to delete a contact one at a time: open contact double tap edit
and double tap delete. I
have not yet figured out a way to make this process quicker. Is there a way
to select contacts from
the contact list and then delete a group? I, being foolish, told the iTunes
software to sync my
contacts from Outlook with the phone. Unfortunately my Outlook contacts are
a jungle of insanity,
three and four different and the same email addresses for one person, etc.
Going through them one by
one and deleting each one per the above process is quite time-consuming. I
hope someone can lead me
toward A way to select multiple contacts for deletion.
Thanks for any ideas you can share. This list is awesome.
Best,
Terrie Terlau.
