Thanks for this.  I know, for me, I don't put the positive stuff out there like

Subject: A thanks to Accessibility

Often only the problems with Apple Accessibility are aired on the list. This 
time I want to give a shout out and cudos to them. 

I bought a 7 watch. Three times yesterday I called them, and received just 
stellar help. The first call I thought I understood how to wipe my watch 4 
using what I was told. What I was looking for was just not there. Second call 
the gentleman worked and worked with his phone with VO and finally found what I 
needed to do. As an aside it was so simple I have no idea why I didn't think of 
it. 

Now I have my old watch wiped but no matter what I did with the new watch I 
couldn't make it talk. Thus I could not set up manually and I sure had no luck 
getting the watch in the pairing window. Back I went to Accessibility. This 
time the gentleman I spoke with guided me easily through the setup, and we had 
a nice chat at the same time. 

So, if there is need for assistance don't hesitate to contact them. The last 
gentleman told me Accessibility is a very high department at Apple in a 
conversation we were having about how he ended up in Accessibility. So, 
obviously Apple takes it seriously. A problem I brought up to them with Books 
was fixed because I brought it up to them. They really do listen to us and try 
to help.

intended to reduce possible distractions from multiple notifications.1
Notification Summary can be used to bundle notifications and have them
delivered together at a later time.

 


As with all software updates, we recommend that you check the
 Compatibility Guide before installing a new OS version on
your smartphone. Once you’ve updated your iPhone to iOS 15, it’s important
that you correctly configure the settings for these two new features.

If you use the new Notification Summary, here’s how to configure your
iPhone.†

 


Step 1: Turn off the app in the Apps in Summary list

Thanks Sieghard for the great loon sounds.

 

I carved out the three calls from the Bird Note recording.

I think the tremolo in particular would make a great alarm, who wouldn’t wake 
up with that call coming out of nowhere, grin.

Hi Alan,

 

I also prefer using a credit card especially since here in Canada it is now 
extremely rare that you can't simply tap the card or of course I can use Apple 
Pay with my iPhone or Apple Watch, but I find having a bit of cash in my wallet 
is still handy for certain things. One example is when I take a taxi, here in 
our small town they now finally have meters, but those only apply when you take 
a longer trip out of town, in town any trip is still $12 and I usually give the 
driver a bit of a tip, if I want to do this with a card (and they only accept 
debit cards at this point due to the much lower fees) I would have to ask the 
driver to set it up with a $2 tip or 15% of whatever whereas it's really handy 
to have a $10 bill and a couple of Toonies or a $10 and a $5 bill and ask him 
for a Dollar change.

 

And for all you non-Canadians who probably have no idea what a "Toonie" is, 
it's our nick name for a 2 Dollar coin. The word is made up from "Loonie" our 1 
Dollar coin which was introduced to replace the 1 Dollar bill in 1987 and the 
number 2.

The Loonie name comes from the picture of the Common Loon which is on one side 
of the coin, this is a water bird which occurs regularly in every single 
Canadian province and Territory, in fact, 95% of the world's Loon population 
breed in Canada, it's also found in Alaska, northern Minnesota and New England.

The Loon is the provincial bird for the province of Ontario and while Canada 
doesn't currently have a national bird, most Canadians think this should be the 
one.

The call of the Loon is very distinct and has 3 main variations, Whale (almost 
like a wolf howl), Laugh or Tremolo and Yodel.

Below are a few facts and then two links, one to an article (it doesn't have 
the recording), and two more for different recordings of the Loon calls:

 

• chick can swim right away, but spends some time on the back of a parent to 
rest, conserve heat, and avoid predators

• has many bones that are solid, rather than hollow like those of other birds, 
which aid its diving ability

• can stay under water for up to 5 minutes and dive to depths of 60 to 70 m 
(196 to 229 feet)

• may have to run as far as several hundred metres (800 to 1000 feet) on the 
surface of the water on a calm day before gaining enough speed to take off 

• Loons can live up to 30 years, longer than Canada Geese (24 years) and much 
longer than ducks (10 years)

• Although no one is sure why, Common loons' eyes are bright red in the summer. 
They then change colour in the fall, fading to a dull reddish brown, while

their striking black and white plumage fades to grey.

• Species include the most common and recognizable black and white Common Loon, 
the Red-throated Loon, the Pacific Loon, the Arctic Loon and the Yellow-billed 
Loon.

My recommendation is to download the Libre 2 app and create an account even 
before you get the unit.

Personally I don't use the reader as it is totally inaccessible for a totally

And I forgot what people had said about the transmitter or receiver. I want to

If someone would be willing to help me out I’d appreciate it very much.

Thank you.

I’m not using the receiver anymore if I don’t have to do so.

 

I have my phone with me and always on unless I do a shut down due to an issue 
or it just seems to be time to reboot the phone.

 

Thanks for the info on the Menu.  My FS Libre has 70 as a low, 55 as an extreme 
low, and 240 as a high.

 

It is so nice to not have to do the process I had to do before the ability to

The aunt needs to stay open all the time. When you go into your app switcher 
you can shut everything else down, but that one Hass to stay open. And anytime 
you turn off your phone, you have to go ahead and re-open the app when you turn 
it back on. Scan your sensor each time you do, and it’s a happy camper.

All,

 

Again thanks so much for all the input.

 

Today I scanned the sensor with my phone and my phone still says that it can’t 
scan as the sensor is associated with another device.

 

I will just keep scanning with the reader until I need to change the sensor.

 

My iPhone did make noise like it was trying to scan (2 beeps or something like 
that).  I don’t recall it doing that yesterday.

 

I do like the ease of this device and believe it will give me a lot more 
control over my diabetes.

 

Again thanks all.

Hi all,

First, no you do not need to be on insulin do use the Libre, as I am not using 
insulin and I have the libre sensors.

My doctor was able to get the Libre for me because I said I wanted to have 
better control of my diabetes and I can’t do that because it’s difficult to get 
blood test since I can’t see it all and it’s hard to get enough blood on the 
strip using a meter.

Secondly when you are using the app on iPhone to check your readings with the 
Libre patch you need to put the top of the phone against the patch and then it 
will scan it and give you your readings. Again, you need to touch the top of 
the foam to the patch.

I hope this helps.

Thanks Everyone,

 

Well I’m still not able to scan the sensor with my phone and think that yes I 
may have to wait until I apply a new sensor and then use my Libre 2 app to 
activate it.

 

I even tried having the reader more than 20 feet away from me and my phone 
thinking the phone might work if the reader was out-of-range.  Didn’t make a 
difference.  😉

 

The sensor is for 14 days and the screen specifically says the reader is Libre 
2.  Using iPhone SE 2020 and IOS 14.8.

 

So for now I will use the reader to scan the sensor and have Voice Dream 
Scanner read what the display shows.  

 

Looking forward to using my phone as the alerts on the reader are not very loud.

 

Again thanks everyone for all the comments and suggestions.

As others have said, you don’t need the reader.  I am not diabetic, but my 
husband is, and he is totally blind and uses it every day with just the app.  I 
have a feeling that since you activated the sensor with the reader, that you 
may not be able to use this particular sensor with the app, but after this 
14-day sensor is finished, just apply the new sensor and use the app to scan 
it.  Also, as others have said, after you activate it, you will need to wait an 
hour.  The app will notify you when your hour is over and prompt you to scan 
for a reading.  We have never had a reader with my husband’s unit, as I talked 
with a coworker and he told me not to get it, as the app is the most accessible 
way to use the Libre.  We told the doctor that we didn’t want or need the 
reader.  Hope this is helpful.

You didn’t need the reader at all. I don’t know how you might get the device to

every so often, just to keep tabs on things. It works real well, at least it 
did the last time I used it. But as I say, I do not know if it is possible to 
switch your sensor over to the phone from the reader. Just don’t use the reader

They are not going to leave that expensive of an item on the porch, especially 
with all the package thieves running around and they don’t want to be liable.

 

O well, patience is a virtue, right?

RE: Free Style Libre Arrived

2021-09-24 Thread Vivian Conger 
Thanks Everyone,

 

Well I’m still not able to scan the sensor with my phone and think that yes I 
may have to wait until I apply a new sensor and then use my Libre 2 app to 
activate it.

 

I even tried having the reader more than 20 feet away from me and my phone 
thinking the phone might work if the reader was out-of-range.  Didn’t make a 
difference.  😉

 

The sensor is for 14 days and the screen specifically says the reader is Libre 
2.  Using iPhone SE 2020 and IOS 14.8.

 

So for now I will use the reader to scan the sensor and have Voice Dream 
Scanner read what the display shows.  

 

Looking forward to using my phone as the alerts on the reader are not very loud.

 

Again thanks everyone for all the comments and suggestions.

 

Vivian and Sallie

As others have said, you don’t need the reader.  I am not diabetic, but my 
husband is, and he is totally blind and uses it every day with just the app.  I 
have a feeling that since you activated the sensor with the reader, that you 
may not be able to use this particular sensor with the app, but after this 
14-day sensor is finished, just apply the new sensor and use the app to scan 
it.  Also, as others have said, after you activate it, you will need to wait an 
hour.  The app will notify you when your hour is over and prompt you to scan 
for a reading.  We have never had a reader with my husband’s unit, as I talked 
with a coworker and he told me not to get it, as the app is the most accessible 
way to use the Libre.  We told the doctor that we didn’t want or need the 
reader.  Hope this is helpful.

over to the Libre 2. Which has the alarm sensors.

Hi Vivian,

You didn’t need the reader at all. I don’t know how you might get the device to 
change from the reader to the app on your phone. I have used the libre with my 
phone, but 10 R. I’m not diabetic, so I only use the continuous glucose monitor 
every so often, just to keep tabs on things. It works real well, at least it 
did the last time I used it. But as I say, I do not know if it is possible to 
switch your sensor over to the phone from the reader. Just don’t use the reader 
again. It was an unnecessary expense that they should not have sold you.

Hi,

 

As andy has said, the app is accessible on the iPHone including any iphone 
since the 7 / 7s.

 

And no the reader device is not accessible to us as it doesn’t read things out!

 

The iphone app does have alerts which you can set,

And the app has a tts built in that if you enable it will read the test to you 
when you take a reading.

 

You don’t need the libre view app to read your blood glucose readings 

There is a log on the phones libre freestyle app that you can open and read all 
tests for at lest 90 days if not more.

 

Your endocrinologist if they have access to the service can share your test 
results  

Through the web interface.

 

Oh and if you check there might be the new version of the libre sensors out in 
your country,

 

They have I believe a Bluetooth option as well as NFc 

So the bt can sync to the phone and your readings taken automatically with out 
the need to scan the sensor manually,

And that way making the libre link system a full CgM product.

 

 

Good luck and I hope you enjoy then when you get it.

 

It’s made my life a lot better with diabetes control.

The libre View app is the app that you will use to get your readings from the 
freestyle Libre device.  The app is accessible.  The sensor has an NFC chip and 
when you move the iPhone next to it, you will get the reading.  Of course, you 
need to launch the ap first.  The reader has a visual display only, and is not 
accessible.  The reader has settings that allow you to set parameters to give 
you warnings if your reading is high or low, and sighted assistance is neded to 
set this up.  But this would be something you would only do once. Remember that 
the sensor will have to be replaced every 14 days.  The reader will give you 
warnings when it gets near time to replace it.  I don't know if the app does 
that, as my wife uses it and not me and she can see well enough to use the 
reader, but I did put the app on her phone and used it a few times.  I know 
many blind people who are using the device and like it.

There is no need for you to cancel the order.

Subject: Free Style Lebra (sp) & iPhone

 

Thanks for letting me know that my message came through.

 

OK I know this has been discussed many times but I lost all my emails on my 
primary account so am basically starting things all over.

 

My Endocrinologist is ordering the Free Style Lebra (sp).  I hadn’t paid much 
attention to previous threads as I didn’t think I could get any sensor.

 

I’m using the iPhone SE2020 and IOS 14.X.

 

What I would like to know is this app accessible with the iPhone?  I think I 
heard that the reader is not accessible for a blind person.

 

If the sensor and the phone are not accessible together, then I need to stop 
the order.

 

Hoping it is accessible and that there might be instructions out there on its 
use.  

 

Any thoughts are welcome.

 

Thanks so much.

Sorry for highjacking a message but I wanted to reply to the list as a test.

 

In the last 2 weeks I have sent 3 fresh messages to the list and I wanted to 
make sure I was sending to the right address.  It looks the same to me but 
usually someone responds to inquiries.

 

The first message was regarding Facebook vs. Facebook mobile and the other 
messages were about a specific hearing-aid app.

 

If I missed responses, that’s on me but if they didn’t make it to the list, 
then I wanted to figure out what’s happening.

 

Many thanks for any thoughts.

HI,

I’ll paste the link below as well as their phone number.

When I started with MLB Audio it was on a computer, so I set up my account from 
their web site, then I associated that account with the app when you sign in 
with your account info on the app.

Their support people are usually quite nice and helpful too.

I went looking for this and didn’t find it.  I search in the App Store on my

Could you please send the link again and I will check it out on the computer 
and then try to download on my phone?

 

I did download MLB the #1 Official app but I can’t get passed the screen that 
wants me to subscribe to MLB TV for $24.95 per month.  That is not what I want.

 

Many thanks for any assistance.

Well when you open your YouTube app, you swipe through, there’s a search button 
you double tap on it you type in whatever you want to search for, like let’s 
say ABBA songs, then on the bottom of your iPhone screen to the right there is 
a search button you double tap on that and then you swipe through the list of 
videos that there are.

Good Afternoon All:

 

I am not a good searcher and tried to find a guide to Youtube on Applevis
but was so overwhelmed that I didn't have much luck.

 

I need the very basics sort of like a step-by-step guide.

 

Any assistance or pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

RE: Caution against following advice to reset settings when reporting iOS 14 issues to Apple Accessibility

2020-09-19 Thread Vivian Conger 
Thanks everyone for all the comments on IOS 14.  I usually allow automatic 
updates but went in and turned that off for now.

 

I love my iPhone SE 2020 but Apple sure isn’t as careful with updates as when

Gordon,

 

Yes, I also did an iCloud backup before upgrading to iOS 14. I didn't expect my 
restoration of my encrypted iTunes backup to bring back iOS 13.7. I just wanted 
to get all my settings back with iOS 14 which is what usually happens when you 
do an iTunes restore. However, my iPhone just has a Apple logo on it which 
appears for a few seconds then disappears and then repeats. I'll try to do a 
recovery with iTunes again before going to the Apple Store.

You're encrypted backup isn't going to work since it's a 13.7 backup and your 
phone is running 14. If you're lucky your phone might just be stuck in recovery 
mode and didn't actually try to downgrade back to 13.7 which I'm not sure if 
Apple is still signing that anymore. Do some google searches on ways to get 
your iPhone out of recovery mode to see if any of those suggestions will work. 
Maybe you'll get lucky and it will boot up in IOS 14 and you'll just have to 
set up as a new phone. Do you backup to iCloud as well? If so, you might be 
able to restore from that.   

On 9/19/2020 6:26 PM, Alan Lemly wrote:

Hello List,

 

I want to caution others from avoiding the problem I'm experiencing after 
calling Apple Accessibility to report an issue I was having with iOS 14. I was 
checking out the setting under my name/Apple ID and when I opened Media and 
purchases, I noticed that when swiping through the various controls to check 
out the screen that focus kept jumping back to the Apple ID control in the 
upper left of the screen. This was some major jumping and occurred on several 
controls on that screen. Trying to be a good citizen, I called Apple 
Accessibility to report the issue. I spoke with someone named Willard who was 
nice enough but who suggested I reset all my settings to factory defaults. I 
argued with him that I had a lot of custom settings and wasn't comfortable 
doing that but he said it was the first suggestion they gave after getting 
contacted about problems following an iOS upgrade. Against my better judgment, 
I reset all my settings. Here are some of the things that were reset that will 
prevent me from ever doing that again:

 

1.  All my Apple cash credit cards were removed.
2.  My Touch ID was reset.
3.  The accessibility setting for Voiceover with the home button was reset.
4.  All my custom keyboards were removed.
5.  My keyboard settings were changed from Touch typing to standard typing.
6.  My default ringtone was reset.
7.  The background color of my home screen was reset from a sea green to 
something that appears to be sort of a red orange color.
8.  Other custom settings I had made were reset that I can't recall.

 

I was able to puzzle out and reset most of the settings but could never figure 
out how to reset the background color of my home screen. I looked under display 
and screen settings and under Wallpaper but found nothing. I then decided to 
restore my encrypted backup I made with iTunes before upgrading to iOS 14. That 
took over an hour and now all my phone does is that the Apple logo appears on a 
black screen as it used to when doing a hard reset but it appears for a few 
seconds and then disappears and then reappears again. The phone which is an SE 
2020 will not restart and is no longer recognized when I plug it to the 
lightning cable and open iTunes.

 

So the moral of this story is if you have an iOS 14 issue to report to Apple 
Accessibility, don't let them convince you to reset your settings. I've never 
had a problem with restoration of an iTunes encrypted backup before but I guess 
my phone is out of commission until I get to an Apple Store.

 

I did upgrade iTunes to its latest version before backing up before upgrading 
to iOS 14. If anyone has any recommendations to try, I'd truly welcome them 
because I need my phone before I'll be able to get to an Apple Store.

have purchased an air purifier a few weeks ago before there was a  run on them. 
We looked at a few Bluetooth models and naturally, they were all at least $100

I’d suggest contacting your credit card company. Just because the card was

RE: Problem with Siri and Sending Messages

2020-07-09 Thread Vivian Conger 
All:

I have an iPhone 7 on Verizon.

Everything the Apple Accessibility and I tried didn't fix this issue.  I had to 
do a hard reset which fixed the issue.

Now I'm just pulling my hair out trying to get all the settings
How I want them.  This is a royal pain but doable.

Problem with Siri and Sending Messages

2020-07-08 Thread Vivian Conger 
Hi,

 

I know this has been covered on the list some time back but as I didn't have
any issues until yesterday, I read the messages but didn't commit the fix to
my memory.

 

When I press the Home button and ask Siri to send a message to anyone, she
says sorry there is a problem. Try later.  When I ask Siri other things like
the temperature or time or whatever there is no issue.

 

This is different than what happens sometimes when a connection cannot be
made even though I have 2 out of 4 bars for cell and 3 out of 3 bars for my
wifi.

 

I have turned Siri off and back on twice in Settings and rebooted my phone.
Still the problem occurs.

 

I am using an iPhone 7 with IOS 13.5.1.

 

The only other thing I can think of is to try a soft reset but can't
remember how that is done.  Or will this need a hard reset through Settings?

 

Many thanks for any suggestions.

I actually fixed it by turning off dictation under keyboard and turning it back 
on and now it is working.  I couldn't find the use home button place so tried 
just the dictation off and on and that worked.

This sometimes happens to me and I’m using an iPhone 7 currently.  I think it 
might have something to do with the cell provider.

Buying New iPhone - Advantages of Through Apple or Verizon

2020-05-21 Thread Vivian Conger 
Good Afternoon All:

 

I am looking to purchase a new iPhone (probably the SE 2020) and wonder what
the advantages are going through Apple or Verizon.

 

I know this will probably be subject to personal opinion and I'm OK with
that.

 

Many thanks.

As soon as you select keypad, you can press the numbers on the keypad and dial 
a number. There is no reason to double tap in the phone number field. 

If you have a reason for trying that, please share.

 Vivian, is there a reason you don't use the keypad? That is the simplest way

Subject: Setting up a new iPhone SE 2020 step by step

 

I am reposting the below at the request of Vivian.

 

Alan

 

Hi List,

 

I decided to make detailed notes of the steps involved in setting up a new 
iPhone mainly for my own benefit since I forget what is involved as I only do 
this every couple of years. In my case, I bought this SE 2020 directly from the 
Apple Store app with no SIM card included since I have a prepaid Verizon plan 
and could not specify my carrier successfully when ordering. The below numbered 
list will be very detailed since I'd rather have too much information than not 
enough. Any settings provided came from my iPhone 8 running iOS 13.4.1.

 

1.  Opened iTunes on my Windows 7 computer, verified I was running its 
latest version of 12.10.6, connected my iPhone 8 using the lightning cable, and 
did an encrypted backup.
2.  Did an iCloud backup by going to Settings - Alan Lemly - Apple ID - 
iCloud - iTunes and App Store, iCloud, iCloud backup, and executing Backup now.
3.  I read a lot of books using the BARD Mobile app and since any books 
downloaded to an iPhone are not transferred to a new restored iPhone, I made a 
list in an Excel file of the downloaded books I wanted to re-download to my new 
iPhone and the location of any current reading position in those books.
4.  I plugged my lightning cable connected to my computer to the new phone 
and the Apple logo appeared on the screen. The white screen appeared a few 
seconds later with the cycling languages appearing and I pressed the home 
button 3 times quickly to turn on Voiceover. Although I was hearing clicks as I 
swiped, Voiceover did not start talking until a number of seconds later. In 
fact, I pressed the home button 3 times again because I wasn't sure I had 
turned Voiceover on. This turned Voiceover off and I had to press the home 
button 3 times again to turn it back on and I heard Voiceover say hello and 
when I swiped once, Voiceover said press home to open.
5.  I pressed home and Voiceover said Setup and put me in a list of 
language buttons with English at the top. I double tapped on English.
6.  The screen which opened said Select your country or region heading. I 
double tapped on the United States button which was the first in the list.
7.  The screen which opened said Quick start heading Bring your current 
iPhone or iPad near this iPhone to sign in and set up. The older iPhone must be 
using iOS 11 or later with Bluetooth turned on. There was a button at the end 
to Set up manually.
8.  A screen opened on my old iPhone to set up a new iPhone using my apple 
ID with a button to continue. A screen appeared to position some pattern in a 
circle but I double tapped the Authenticate manually button instead.
9.  I was prompted to input the 6 digit authentication code displayed on my 
new iPhone using the number pad screen on my old iPhone. My new iPhone then 
prompted me to enter my passcode of my old iPhone. I had to double tap each 
number on the on screen number pad on my new iPhone since touch typing was not 
turned on.
10. I was prompted to set up touch ID on the new iPhone which I did.
11. Several screens were presented asking me to place my finger and lift my 
finger which I did. I was then taken to a screen which said Adjust your grip 
and it said keep going to capture the edges of your grip. I double tapped a 
Continue button at the bottom of this screen.
12. I was then prompted to again place and lift my finger until I got the 
Complete message. Touch ID is ready was spoken and I then executed the Continue 
button at the bottom of that screen.
13. The next screen said Transfer your data heading. The explanation said 
you can directly transfer your data during setup or finish downloading it 
later. Buttons on this screen were Transfer from iPhone, Download from iCloud, 
or other options. The Transfer from iPhone said the time to transfer was about 
1 hour. The download from iCloud said I could start using my iPhone in about 15 
minutes and my data would download later over wifi. I executed the Transfer 
from iPhone button.
14. I was taken to a Terms and conditions screen on the new iPhone where I 
double tapped an Agree button in the bottom right corner.
15. I was taken to a Settings from other iPhone heading screen where it 
listed some settings about allowing Siri to use voice input, contacts, etc. and 
allowing maps to use my location. I executed the Continue button at the bottom 
of this screen without customizing any settings.
16. I was taken to a Keep your iPhone up to date heading screen which was 
basically a commercial

Hi All,

 

Someone has purchase 2 Kindle books for me and I got emails asking me to
accept the books.  Well I've done that more than once and am unable to
figure out how to get the books.

 

I do most of my email on my PC but usually read Kindle books on my iPhone 7
running 13.3.

 

Hoping someone has a suggestion as to exactly what I need to do or where I
need to go.

 

Many thanks for any assistance.

Hello Dennis,

I plan on purchasing a subscription later this weekend so I will probably 
schedule another meeting next week.

What I think I will do is send a general meeting notification to the group, 
first, then, about 10 minutes before the meeting is to start, I will send the 
meeting link to the group.  This may cut down on any risk of encountering a 
Zoom Bomb.

We will see.

Mark

Hi Gordon and Everyone,

That was great!

Thank you all for joining our meeting.  

I will definitely purchase a subscription so that we can have meetings without 
a 40-minute time limit.  You guys are definitely worth it.

Perhaps we can pick a topic for each meeting or something.

Again, thank you all for calling in.

Mark

I had to jump out of the meeting because I have some new furniture to unload. 
It was nice talking with those of you who were able to come out and I hope we 
do this again.

Usually, attachments are at the bottom of the message. 

I usually touch the lower left corner, then flick left, and most of the time, I 
land right on the attachment and double tap.

Sometimes it will say double tap to download, then once the file name shows up, 
another double tap will open it.

Once in a while, I have to flick left to get beyond the signature, then find 
the attachment.

HTH,

Hi  Vivian and Sallie,

 

The first thing that you need to check is weather Airplane Mode is not On and 
you are getting proper Network coverage. If everything is good to go then try 
reactivating the imessage. To do this Go to Settings > Messages > iMessage Turn 
the slider OFF and ON. Also under the same scroll down and you'll find "Send as 
SMS" make sure that it's ON and this is the setting that must be ON when 
iMessage is unavailable or you're sending the message to a phone other than an 
iphone.
Note: Carrier message rates may apply.
 

Hope this helps

The things that I tried for those 10 messages are:

 

Rebooting the phone.

Deleting her messages from my message list.

Dictating through Siri within or outside the message app.

Going into Contacts and selecting her name and then dictating the message.

Single finger, double tap when she sent me a message and then dictating in the

Asked Siri to send her phone number a text.

 

I can’t remember if I tried anything else but know that I was a very unhappy

Double tap the dish you want, flick through the options you'll be presented

In the last week or so, my phone's battery has been behaving extremely oddly. 
When not charging, the battery drains very quickly; it can often lose at least 
5% in a couple of minutes. Conversely, when I have it plugged in, it charges 
very slowly, maybe 1% every five minutes or so. It is an iPhone 7 that is a 
little more than 2 years old. I'm not running iOS 13 yet because of the bug 
with ending calls and losing speech. I don't think it can be a problem with the 
lightning port, because it does charge when plugged in the wall and a computer. 
However, if I am doing something like uploading to iCloud, it can actually 
drain even while plugged in. When I check the battery health, it is at 84%. Is 
it time for a battery replacement?

In the last week or so, my phone's battery has been behaving extremely oddly. 
When not charging, the battery drains very quickly; it can often lose at least 
5% in a couple of minutes. Conversely, when I have it plugged in, it charges 
very slowly, maybe 1% every five minutes or so. It is an iPhone 7 that is a 
little more than 2 years old. I'm not running iOS 13 yet because of the bug 
with ending calls and losing speech. I don't think it can be a problem with the 
lightning port, because it does charge when plugged in the wall and a computer. 
However, if I am doing something like uploading to iCloud, it can actually 
drain even while plugged in. When I check the battery health, it is at 84%. Is 
it time for a battery replacement?

Vivian, those two sets of words show addresses that are only 10 digits apart, 
1519 and 1509, I won't say the street or city; but the numbers are on the same 
street and city; so the police would be probably one house off, at worst, which 
isn't ideal, but better than having no real clue.

By the way, the three words for any particular address are not perminent. They 
change quite frequently. For this reason, before you give a three words address 
to any one, one has to check the three words at the time they need to determine 
their exact location. For example, if the three words address to your backyard

For example, the door of 10 Downing Street is slurs.this.shark, while the area

It was born out of company founder Chris Sheldrick's postal-related problems 
growing up in rural Hertfordshire.

Open Voice Dream Reader,

Then, double tap on User Manual and it will be loaded into your library.

Open it, and double tap on play.

Or, open the user manual, and at the top of the screen, double tap on document,

You can email it to yourself as a plain text file and open it on another device

That's certainly not normal behaviour for Voice Dream Reader. I read books 
which are ten or more hours long and it only stops when I use the two-finger 
double-tap to make it. Does this happen on other documents you've tried to 
read? Perhaps, there's some unusual property of the particular document. One 
possibility might be if you have the autolock set on your phone. I have mine 
set to never and simply lock my screen manually when I'm not using the phone. 
Perhaps, a notification is interrupting the reading. I haven't encountered that 
myself. In fact, I've had to pause what I'm reading just to properly check and 
hear a notification. I hope this issue can be resolved speedily for you. Voice 
Dream Reader has well and truly proved its worth for me.

I have IMAP on my phone and POP on my computer.  I may have to have someone 
help me change the computer so that everything cyncs but for now the computer 
is the only device that removes email off the server.  My laptop is also set to

Pop or iMap are set at the server, not on the device; so you cannot have pop on 
one device and iMap on the other. 

Using very old systems with new software is bound to run into problems.

 

Carolyn, as for the sending issue, that sounds like an SMTP settings issue.

You'll need to check with your Internet Service Provider as to what they should 
be on your iPhone.

You are right, it is a pop account.  Can I change it only on the phone?  
Because there isn't a way to do so on my computer.  Let us just say that I'm 
running an old system and old software (for the moment anyway) and leave it at 
that.  



But would the type of account really prevent me from selecting and deleting

What you describe sounds like you use the POP protocol which should be avoided 
like the plague. I don’t know your email provider, but most nowadays support 
IMAP and if you set up your email account on your iPhone as well as your 
computer using the IMAP protocol you will have no more issues such as you 
describe and in addition you get proper syncing of emails, e.g. if you reply to 
an email on your iPhone the email will show as replied to on the computer and 
the corresponding sent message is in your Sent Items folder, if you delete an 
email on your iPhone it will also be deleted on the computer. Essentially with 
IMAP any changes you do are done on the server and any devices whether it’s one 
iPhone and one computer or one iPhone and 5 computers get all the changes.

Hi Mark and everyone. Given this new policy, I'll be unsubscribing after around 
9 years on the group, but I want to express my disappointment about this change.
During Cara's excellent and even-handed leadership of this group, we had many 
occasions where app developers would engage with us about their apps, 
especially when those apps were blindness specific.
Since this particular app was one that has come up here on multiple occasions, 
with some mentioning it as one of their top apps of 2018, it seemed 
appropriate, on-topic, and of value to interested members to let them know 
about recent developments, especially a free trial. This has been welcomed on 
other groups.
It's a difficult and false distinction to separate the app from the service, 
when the app is the vehicle for that service.
Further, the service itself would in the past have been considered on-topic, 
because one uses it on an iPhone and it is blindness specific.
Anyway, I've learned a great deal over the last 9 years, so thanks to everyone 
for that.

Just be careful that you don't drop it and break one of the hinges.  I had a 
friend that did that.  She can still use it but it's a bit cumbersome now.

Hello,
You could try the iClever try-fold keyboard. It folds up small enough to fit in 
a purse or in a messenger bag. It is around $30 on Amazon.

Hi,

I believe you are having this issue when you are trying to send a text message 
using Siri to a person who has an Android phone. I found this same issue 
happening when I use Siri to send a text message to my son who has an Android 
pone. If you have an email text that you have tried to send to him in the text 
message field and try and send another message using Siri it will send the 
second one. If you clear out all your text messages and then try sending with 
Siri again it will not send it. But if you send a text message bye the messages 
app it will send just fine. I believe this is an issue with the new IOS 12 
using Siri to send text messages to an Android device as it is trying to send 
it using iMessage instead of SMS.

I have another person try this on her iPhone 7 and it did the same thing. It 
would not send them using Siri to another person who has an Android.

Hi all.  When I dictate a text message using Siri I almost always get a

RE: VO Continuous Reading of PDF

Thanks Richard.  She is using her new iPhone XR which she loves by the way.  
After I sent the message to the list, I mentioned that I thought iBooks would 
read PDF documents.  She said there isn’t iBooks but there is Books so she 
copied the document into it and it worked like a charm.

Is she using a Mac? I have not heard of doing that on an iPhone or iPad. I do 
not have a Mac, but on an iPhone or iPad, I just double tap on the attachment 
and it will download the file, double tap again and it will be in viewing mode, 
at which point a two finger flick down will read it through unless there are 
some odd codes that stop it reading. 

Then I flick right with one finger, and then down with two and it will pick up 
reading again.

Mary,

No problem if you have enabled two-factor authentication and also set-up a 
trusted phone number.
I only have one iOS device and no mac, so I don't have other devices to receive 
verification codes on.
However, since I have verified my sim and phone number it works fine.

I recently performed a full reset of my iPhone 7 and I was very curious to see 
how that would go since I use two-factor auth and no other devices to get a 
code on to verify my identity.
However, no worries.
Here is were the trusted phone number came in and I entered my apple id 
credentials and it connected to apple servers and no problem with two-factor 
auth since it automatically discovered that the sim and phone number on this 
device is set-up as a trusted phone number in two-factor auth of my apple id.

He responded within a day. Here is his reply which I greatly appreciate:

Hi Richard,

 

Thank you first and foremost for the download and kind words. I love that this 
app has made such an impact on so many users around the world. As for the 
Standings page that is actually a page that I have linked to from ESPN. 
Unfortunately I have not built a native page for this yet. I do plan on it 
sometime in the future but just have not gotten around to it yet. I'm glad you 
have found great use with the app. I have some many users that have stuck with 
it for 3-4 years now and in the last few years have learned that I have a major 
following in the blind community because of the friendly voiceover capabilities.

 

Thank you!

Mine is the IC-BK05, 3-color backlight, full size tri-folding keyboard.  I 
don't care about the backlight feature either, but I do prefer the full size 
one.  My husband has a smaller size of this keyboard, but I find it easier to 
use the larger size.

Thank you both.

 Do you happen to know which models you use? They have an updated model with a 
back lit option. I'm thinking of buying the older model because I don't need 
the lighting. Oh also, have either of you had problems with the E key?

Thank you,

I just tried a battery check on my iPhone 8 and I got a strange answer.

Siri said, your iPhone is at 52 percent, there is a problem, please try again.

 

So Siri gave me the correct information, but for some reason, Siri also said 
there is a problem and to try again.

Now this is the only thing I get the message on.  I can check the temperature, 
get the weather, get sports scores and more, and never get the problem message!

 

Very strange, especially since Siri always gave me the correct information.

Hi All,

After I found out I wasn't the only one whose Siri was asking to try again 
later, I called Apple and spoke with a nice young man. He had me put the SE 
through several things.  The only time I got Siri to say something along the 
lines of 'something seems to be wrong.  Please try back later.'


I got variants of that message every time I asked Siri for a battery check.  
Siri then gave me the correct info and then the part about something being
wrong and to try back later.  Asking Siri for a battery check was the only time 
he added the something wrong part.

Brendon  tried a diagnostic and could find nothing 'wrong'.

Will you tell me what Siri has said to you along that line? Perhaps we could 
try to get an engineer's attention or at least find out what's going on and
how to fix it.

I have an SE-64 and the latest update 11.04.1.  Brendon had the same SE-64 and 
he did not have the same thing happening.  He and I will talk again early
next week and I would appreciate it if you have had this 'something's wrong' 
type of trouble, would you take the time to let me know so perhaps we could
find some kind of pattern?

If you wish, you could send me the info directly and I'll give it to the Apple 
tech.

Thanks,

Nancy

Go to Settings > Touch Id and Passcode to turn off using a passcode. You will 
have to enter your passcode in order to get access to the settings in this 
section, once you are in you can turn it off.

I am not sure what the "expand/minimize speaking bar" is so somebody else has 
to help you with that.If you mean the "speak selection" and "speak screen" 
items then you find those in Settings > General > Accessibility > Speech, here 
you can check if these two items are turned on or off.

In addition, the SE has a headphone jack. If you require that to be present on 
the iPhone. 

 

I do want to point out as well that even though from the 7 onwards, you can use 
headphones which use the the older style of connecting. Not sure what it is 
called but you will need to use the dongal which will enable you to use a 7 and 
onwards iPhone which do not feature a headphone jack. You should get the dongal 
in your purchase if 7 or above. I know it's less convenient, but at least apple 
provided a solution and believe me, if they didn't, I wouldn't of brought 
another iPhone. 

 

Certainly not because they are not amazing devices which we can hold in the

Subject: RE: Upgrade process from iPhone 5S

 

Hi Richard,

 

It is slightly newer than the 6S, but it actually has older technology. The 
processor is the same, but it still has the first generation Touch Id sensor 
(same as the 5S) whereas the 6S and 6S Plus have a faster and more reliable 
Touch Id home button. The SE also does not support 3D Touch whereas the 6S and 
6S Plus do. I would absolutely not recommend an SE at this late stage of the 
cycle and while my wife has a 6S and I have a 6S Plus and they are very good 
phones and we like them, I would probably even suggest to go with an iPhone 7 
as the minimum. Yes, it doesn’t have the 3.5mm headphone jack any more and come 
with a set of Lightning Earpods and if you want to use a wired headset and 
charge at the same time you need the Belkin Rockstart adapter/splitter.

Anyhow, Bill asked if he needs to reconnect his bluetooth keyboard and headset 
so it seems like he is using a bluetooth headset more than maybe a wired 
headset and if so the lack of the 3.5mm headphone jack is probably not an issue 
for him.

Bill, if you think you want to keep your next phone for 4 years than I would 
definitely suggest you look at getting an iPhone 7, if you can afford an iPhone 
8 then get an iPhone 8, it is the most future proof and will let use use 
wireless charging, but you have to buy a wireless charging pad, they are not 
expensive on Amazon, maybe $20 or $30, less than an original Apple Lightning 
cable. Of course you can still plug it in as well.

The iPhone 7 is only offered with 32Gb or 128Gb, the iPhone 8 is offered in 
64Gb or 256Gb. I don’t know how much storage your current 5S has, but 32Gb is 
almost not enough if you want to put a bunch of music on it and also take some 
pictures. If you primarily just want apps on it and use a music streaming 
service where you don’t store music on the phone or if you don’t care much 
about listening to music on your iPhone then 32Gb is probably fine.

Lastly I would recommend that if you have an Apple Store nearby that you simply 
ask them to help you to make sure your 5S is backed up and to then switch your 
SIM (your current SIM from the 5S will work in the newer phones) and lastly to 
restore your backup and make sure everything is as it should. If you bring your 
keyboard, tile and headset they can even make sure they are connected and 
working. You may have to tweek a few things, but for the most part you would 
walk into an Apple Store with your old 5S and you would walk out a couple of 
hours later with a new phone which is fully set up more or less the same as 
your old one. trans

There is an adapter you can find in the apple store which will allow you to do 
it.  It’s around $30 as I remember and it works well.  Come to think of it, 
there are two types, one for the new headphones and the other using the old 
one, both though plugging into the phone and allowing the battery to be

Getting Voiceover to read continuously is actually not necessary, as long as 
you can unlock your phone pressing the volume up button will do the trick. Just 
make sure you press it, let go, press it, let go etc. Pressing and holding it 
will not raise the volume, you have to press it like 10 or 12 times.

Hi Vivian,

Please try the following:
One. Navigate over to your home screen. Then, be sure to unplug your headphones.
Two. Flick or swipe up with two fingers to make VoiceOver start reading all the 
elements on the screen.
Three now, start pushing the volume up button and you should slowly start to 
hear the voice reading the elements and that should fix your issue.
Hope that helps.

I don't know why it is doing this, quite honestly, I figured it was just my

and if I can use this word in conjunction with a phone, caress the place that 
goes against your ear a couple times quickly, and it will force the sensor that 
is supposed to sense that the phone is against your ear to switch back to the 
earpiece, and it should stay this time. I'm about to the point of doing this 
caress before I even put it to my ear the first time, hoping it won't do that

I don't know why it is doing this, quite honestly, I figured it was just my 
iPhone 6, it is getting old. But when it does it, take it away from your ear, 
and if I can use this word in conjunction with a phone, caress the place that 
goes against your ear a couple times quickly, and it will force the sensor that 
is supposed to sense that the phone is against your ear to switch back to the 
earpiece, and it should stay this time. I'm about to the point of doing this 
caress before I even put it to my ear the first time, hoping it won't do that 
switching in the middle of a call.   I have more of a problem having it not 
switch to the earpiece in the beginning.

You may want to check the VO volume setting itself, but also under settings, 
sounds, make sure that change with buttons is off.

Arnold,

 

I thought I tried that but apparently not enough.  I can finally hear VO but 
not very loud.  At least I know I may not need to visit the Apple store after 
all.

 

I will go and see if I can change the volume more but at least I know VO works 
without using the headset.

 

Thanks so much for your suggestion.

The volume of VO through the speaker and headphones are two separate settings. 
When VO is supposed to be talking through the speaker, press the up volume 
button several times to see if you can begin to hear it. Sometimes, the speaker 
volume gets turned down for no apparent reason.

Hi All,

 

I am using an iPhone 7 and OS 10.32.

 

Does anyone know a solution to VO not speaking unless headphones are plugged

Things that I have tried include:

 

Shutting down the phone and powering back up.

 

Going through Settings and turning VO off and back on.

 

Turning Siri off and back on.

 

Fully charging the phone overnight.

 

VO works just fine with headphones attached.

 

Siri works just fine with and without headphones plugged in.

 

I’m not even able to update to 11 as I need to have the headphones plugged in 
to use VO and, as far as I know, it is recommended to have the phone plugged

I will try to get to the Apple store today as I’m where there is one.  Once I

there are no available appointments at the Geneous Bar.

 

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi Vivian,

Please try the following:
One. Navigate over to your home screen. Then, be sure to unplug your headphones.
Two. Flick or swipe up with two fingers to make VoiceOver start reading all the 
elements on the screen.
Three now, start pushing the volume up button and you should slowly start to 
hear the voice reading the elements and that should fix your issue.
Hope that helps.

Hi Carla,

Check your junk folder. Sometimes verification messages end up there.

RE: Apple TV Recommendation

2017-07-31 Thread Vivian Conger 
Thanks so much.  I’m very glad to have a clear picture now and not 
misunderstand what Apple TV box does.

Adding the Apple TV will not make your TV accessible for selecting and watching 
cable content, but when you switch to the apple TV set top box while it is 
connected to your TV, certain apps that are on the Apple TV (or that you 
install to the Apple TV) are accessible. NetFlix is accessible and Hulu is also 
accessible. There are other apps that you can get that are accessible too, some 
do require a cable subscription, but if you want the Apple TV for specifically 
accessing NetFlix, purchase the Apple TV 4th generation. The 32 gig, the 
smallest that they make, would probably be what you’d want, but there is also a 
64 gig model available. Again, the Apple TV will not make your TV accessible. 
There is also a Samsung TV that I recently was given as a 50th birthday present 
that has talking menus, but that runs almost $300 for a 32 inch. I am able to 
access NetFlix and Hulu with this television. You did say you weren’t gonna 
purchase a new TV, so the Apple TV would be the way to go.

I would like to hear what people's recommendations would be.  I haven't done

I believe you’re mistaken here.  The apple tv won’t make your tv and its menus 
accessible.  The apple tv is a set-top box which brings much content to you and 
the apple tv itself is very accessible but has nothing to do with conventional 
tv.

One thing you may want to do is be ware of 3d touch. I struggled to type in my 
passcode because I didn't realise that 3d touch would be on by default and I 
had to press much more lightly than I was used to. I usually have 3d touch off 
but have begun to experiment. Other than that, it was a pretty smooth and 
enjoyable upgrade. Things just work so much better. I upgraded from a 6 to a 7. 
I'm getting much bettter results from the camera when I use KNFB Reader to read 
mail or apps like Tap Tap See to identify things.
