RE: another question color identifier.

[la...@comcast.net]

I have used the call a volinteer option frequently for colors It takes a little 
time for someone to become available, but I know they are checking the thing I 
want and that their descriptions are accurate.

Be My Eyes with the AI tab at the bottom, which I am not sure is available 
everywhere yet.
 
But Seeing AI is not very good at all with colors according to my wife.

Try Be My Eyes. The AI channel does a very good job, though it takes a little 
while for it to analyze the picture. Of course, it will depend on lighting and 
will not match what a person with sight could, but it seems better than other 
apps that I have tried. My wife is sighted, and a quilter and she has been 
impressed with what it has said.

RE: Preserving batteries

[la...@comcast.net]

another question about batteries. I have been turning my Braille Sense 6 
completely off when I know I won't use it for 2 or 3 hours to save battery, but 
is turning it off and on again three or more times a day harder on the machine 
than letting it sleep and needing to recharge more frequently?

Modern lithium batteries actually do not have to be fully discharged or almost 
fully, in fact, the recommendation is to not do this and to charge when you get 
down to between 40% and 20% and to then charge to between 80% and 100%; it's 
totally fine to unplug your iPhone from the charger when it's at 89% or 93% or 
whatever.

I'd suggest to run down your backup phone as much as you can.  I've had my

Apparently, Bookshare is having a problem. That is the first time I have ever 
heard of that message coming down on an audiobook. However, last night on my 
e-reader, I got the message about the zipped file at least three times. As I 
said there has never been a problem with audiobooks, so I'm guessing that book 
share is having a problem.

I also tried both  books, and although they both remained in the waiting

this having to wait  it  perhaps some kind of interface situation between Voice 
Dream and Bookshare, or perhaps Bookshare  sometimes just takes a bit of time 
before it can send the book to VoiceDream.  but I find it to be a minor

Subject: Voice dream reader, TTS update

Below is the phrase used to describe the latest update.
Version 4.20.3, 1d ago, We updated the voice management screen in Voice Dream 
Reader. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

What they did was to now include all the voices. So, they are all included now 
so you do not have to buy any voices. So, if you wanted to try some out that 
you dicd not want to pay for, they are now free!

RE: YouTube help please. Is there a way to quickly advance through a video on either the app or on the web?

[la...@comcast.net]

I don't know how this works with touchscreens, but those of us who use keys can 
arrow down to where it says something like "Seek control, x minutes played of y 
minutes. You then have keys you can press to move forward by larger segments. 
The length of time is dependent on the size of the video. There must be a way 
to find that seek control prompt. Hope you can.

Hello all,
I frequently have to quickly advance through lengthy YouTube videos. I am not 
able, it seems, to advance more quickly than by 10 seconds at a time by swiping 
up with a single finger. I know there's a way that is possible to quickly 
scroll when not using voiceover and cited. Any help would be appreciated.

Arrow down. You can almost hear what you are getting below the talk. When it

It will be silent for a couple of seconds, then start with the program you

Yes Voice Dream Reader is now listed with the longer name, Text to Speech TTS 
Voice Dream, but the company name is not Natural Reader Audio Books. I checked 
directly with the new owners and they purchased the Voice Dream LLC. name as 
well and it is still, and likely always will be, Voice Dream LLC. However, the

if you double tap on that button or just read a little further down in the app

No Lana, it does not.  However, just remember, that your new SD card
in the third gen stream is in xfat format, while the SD card in a
second gen stream must be formatted as fat32.  If someone wanted to
use a large capacity SD card in both the second gen stream, or the
third gen stream, they must first make sure their SD card is formatted
as fat32.

After formatting it I put all of her files and folders on it.
It says memory error 3 but everything looks fine when its in the computer.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

RE: Re: My iPhone starts playing music when the screen is locked and I'm not even in the same room, why?

[la...@comcast.net]

my TV has been doing that for more than a year. I have always had trouble with 
my remote. Since Comcast has something called Stream, which lets me get tv 
channels on my iPhone, I just ignored it., but every so often, it just turns 
on. It may be for thirty seconds or maybe longer till I turn it off, but then, 
a week or two later, it comes on again. 
Go figure.

This situation occurred yesterday for me and I thought that it may
have been because I pressed my watch up against something to trigger
the music playing from my phone.
It seems like I did not and music started playing at random. I just
stopped the music from playing.

If you break the price down, it is about $5.00 a month, or $1.15 per week. I 
think most people could give something up that would cover the cost.

RE: Re: Apple TV without a physical screen?

[la...@comcast.net]

If I understand this,  you still need a TV? My cable company has something 
called Stream. I can get all the television I want using my iPhone. Since 
something has gone wrong between my router, my TV, and its remote, and since it 
takes from ten to fifteen seconds for the sound to come up for me to know if 
the TV is on, I like this choice, but would prefer something which could be 
used even if I leave Comcast.

Hello, to get around this issue, I bought this several years ago. You connect 
an HDMI cable to it, and then to the Apple tv, and you send your audio out 
through the RCA jacks. It's used for those times when tvs or gaming consoles 
don't have their own audio outputs, and you need to have them for some external 
speakers. It's about a thirty dollar item:

Hi all,
Currently using Voice Dream Reader to read mp3 books.
Problem is if you miss something in a book it is hard to move back a 
small amount rather than a percentage.
Other apps will let you move in 30 second increments from the control 
centre.
With VDR you can only move next track.
The slider control in notification centre doesn't seem to work.
If I've missed anything or if my skills need improving please let me know.

> Gerardo et al,
I have a buddy in Canada with whom I often share weather information.  As a 
result, I've learned to,, for all intents and purposes, to convert literally on 
the fly.  I find it much easier to have the weather app report in Celsius and 
convert to Fahrenheit by using Siri to multiply the Celsius by 1.8 and then add 
32 to the result.  I know it seems a bit overwhelming at first blush, but as 
you do this repetitively, you will find that you'll find yourself doing the 
math in your head faster than asking Siri.
Another quick translation method is to keep inm mind that every 5 degrees in C 
increases the Fahrenheit temp by 9 degrees as follows:
0C = 32F
5C = 41F
10C = 50F
15C = 59F
20C = 68F
25C = 77F
30C = 86f
35C = 95F
etc.
Good Luck.
Wouldn't it be nice if a weather app offered to report temps in both celsius 
and Fahrenheit together?

Lana,
Mark was saying the videos do not include the Audio Description track, but he 
failed to use the word "description" in his statement.
Yes, they have the full audio and sound effects, minus the description track 
for the blind.
Apparently, if you want to buy the video, with full audio including audio 
description, you need to buy it through Prime.
I personally am fine with just the free MP3 with no video but all the sounds 
plus audio description.  My wife who is sighted, isn't a big fan of Sci-Fi.

Are you saying that the episodes come with video only? No dialogue or music, or

If so why don't you just open the Audible app, tap on the "Profile" tab at the

So, I go to my library, double tap on the book I want which then presents a new

And now my problems start. I double tap on the title part 1 but nothing

Are you kidding me I'd love that! Seriously I'd love that! Have you ever 
experienced a blood pressure cuff that squeezed again before it had even 
completely let up because there was an error like you had it too low on 
your arm or something? That's happened to me numerous times, but the 
last time it did that, it squeezed so hard and it seemed to take a long 
time before it stopped, and I don't think it's considered claustrophobia 
because when you're claustrophobic, you feel scared in a confined space, 
but I felt like I would never get my arm out ever again. I got so scared 
my mom had to come over and press on the power button I guess it is, so 
the air would go out and the cuff would let up. If there would be an 
app, that would be fantastic! Please, let me know! Thanks.

This is for books which are on both audible and kindle, not kindle only. For 
those you get your voice-over voice.

Hello Mont,
Yes, the audio narrators are real people, not a TTS.  
So, in the Kindle app, you can read the title via VoiceOver or choose to hear 
the human voices which were recorded in a studio; the same audio heard in any 
Audible title.
You can also navigate the title via the audio narration or via VoiceOver.  For 
example, when you use a VoiceOver gesture to change pages or jump to a specific 
location in the book, when next you engage the Audible portion, the human voice 
narration reading will resume at the same location. It's really quite amazing 
(smile).
In the US, a standard annual Prime membership subscription is currently $139.

Subject: Attention All Amazon Prime Subscribers
Hello Everyone,
I am posting this because I recently discovered a new resource for accessing / 
downloading newly released and more, Audible audiobooks at no additional charge 
to Prime subscribers.
Please understand that there is a great deal about Amazon and Amazon prime 
benefits that many find rather confusion, including me, so I am just going to 
relay my experience and in no way am I posting as an expert.
Okay, the other day, I saw an advertisement for a newly released collection of 
short stories that were published on Kindle, only, with audio narration 
(narration by Audible).  There was a fee for the collection but the 
advertisement stated that Prime members could download and read the collection 
for free.
Intrigued, I fired up my trusty iOS Kindle app and opened the Discover tab.
Now remember, I'm going to keep this as simple as possible.  In no way was my 
first experience a quick and smooth one for I had no idea of how any of this 
worked.
Okay, after opening the Discover tab, I selected the category, "Prime Reading." 
 There is also a "Kindle Unlimited" category, which I did not explore.  
I suspect that the Kindle Unlimited program is to Prime Reading as the Amazon 
Music Unlimited program is to Prime Music; a guess, only.
Once I selected Prime Reading, a new screen was displayed.  There are several 
sub categories to explore but, in order to search for a specific title, I 
selected "Browse the Catalog."
On the next screen, there are two important items to note:  (1) the search 
field and (2) the filter button.
Whether you merely want to browse the catalog or search for a specific title, 
set the filter to "eBooks with Audible" and launch your search.
All of the resulting titles will be eBooks that have Audible narration that are 
free for Prime members to read in Kindle and/or listen to via Audible.
Of course there are many, many ways to navigate through the Prime Reading 
universe but the above was the method I used to get started.
What I find most delightful is that I have been able to download some titles 
that were published for Kindle, only, and still enjoy the Audible experience 
without having to pay additional fees.
Okay, I hope you find this useful.
Happy Reading,

RE: Using voice over with Kindle

[la...@comcast.net]

Not sure where you are having a problem, but this is how I do it. 
When you download a book, or select it from your library, It opens somewhere in 
the book, usually at the beginning. If you swipe down with two fingers once, it 
will read a single page. If, instead, you swipe down twice with two fingers, it 
will read continuously from where you are in the book. 
A single finger double tap will get you into the menu. There are several things 
you can do from there, but the most useful is to keep swiping right to 
navigation drawer. Tap to enter there. Swipe again to table of contents and 
enter there. Depending on how the book is organized, you should be able to 
swipe past chapter headings and double tap on the part you want. Again, two 
finger single or double tap to read the page or continuously. 
Now, maybe you want finer navigation. This gets trickier. Again, it depends on 
how the book is organized. Use your two finger twist to go through a selection 
of movements like word, line, heading, link, all depending on the book. You 
also get things like voice rate and whatever else you have for that technique. 
You can also use a four finger right or left swipe to move by page, and don't 
ask me which is which. I always get them mixed up. 
That's about all I know. Hope it helps.

Subject: Using voice over with Kindle

Hi all, and thank you so very much for the help.
I tried to study the gestures for voiceover with Kindle but I couldn't catch 
on. I got the guide downloaded, but I couldn't figure out how to read it from 
the iPhone screen. It just seem to keep going all over the place. Is there 
anyone out there who could help? I would very much appreciate it. Please, and 
thank you very much.
God bless,

I was merely quoting John Ruskin.
I find freezing rain is the worst in my part of the world, having lived through 
two seriously bad ice storms when buses and cars basically slid to the side of 
the road and could do nothing about it, and everything was covered with at 
least an inch thick sheet of ice.  Few things could move.

If you have ever lived through any of the weather disasters which seem to 
happen more and more lately you may reconsider that statement about that there 
is  no such thing as bad weather. As far as weather for a particular area which 
is in the normal parameters I would probably agree although I must say that the 
older I get the less I like it when it's below -30 for more than a few days!
