prayers and reason for unsubscribing soon
bites had now become 10. I was so worried about my eye that I put this arm problem aside until I solve this cornea issue. I thought I was having an allergic reaction to something. By the beginning of December my whole entire arm from the elbow down was covered in scabby itchy pimples. I thought oh my God what's going on? I changed my soap, detergent, and started to watch what I was eating. Due to the cornea problem and the Christmas holidays I didn't get to my family doctor until January. By January both my arms were covered in these strange itchy things. The doctor looked at my arms and fingers and said oh don't worry it's nothing, you have scabies. Pardon my language but I answered what the hell is scabies? She said it's a bug sometimes humans get. Usually from sex but since your husband doesn't have it and you didn't cheat on him you got it from the motel you stayed at, or from a shopping mall, or someone hugged you who has it. She continued on to say it will be gone in a few weeks. She said it's contagious but since you will be treating yourself in the next week don't worry about it. She gave me a lotion with pesticide in it and told me to apply it to my whole body from the knec down before bedtime and shower after 12 hours in the morning. She said do not apply to face and scalp because scabies don't go there and it's not safe. She said repeat this process one week later. During this week of treatment vacuum the house every day and wash linens and all clothing warn every day. So off I went astonished at what I had heard. Where the heck did I get something like this. Oh well I thought it will soon be over, or so I believed. On my way to the pharmacy to pick up the lotion full of embarrassment I kept on thinking about the doctor's words when she said to me, "zoe I know you are a clean person and your house is clean but this illness has nothing to do with cleanliness, rich, or pour. Anyone can contract this disease. She continued on to say because you are type 2 diabetic your immune system is compromised and so it's easier for you to catch something like this. The scabby pimples on your arms, are the bugs laying eggs and leaving their pheacies behind. The body has an allergic reaction to those things. I cried all the way to the pharmacy. I went home and began the treatment as the doctor had described. My husband and I slept in separate bedrooms and I kept away from my mom just encase. I put my bracelet business on hold thinking it's only a few weeks. I laundered every day running my clothing through the dryer three times to make sure I kill everything that could be on my clothing. I got depressed but my family reminded me of everything the doctor told me and I was consoled and thought to myself what am I crying about this will be over soon. Boy was I wrong. One week later when I was finished the treatment I was still itchy and the scabs were still there. I called the doctor and she confirmed what I had read online that the body would slowly extract the pheacies and eggs and eventually the itchiness would go away, it would take about six weeks for everything to return to normal. By the way by mid-January I could no longer sleep, the itchiness would keep me up all night itching, burning and crying from pain and sleeplessness. During January I attended the funeral of a beloved older man who had passed away suddenly and I had visited his widow and also I visited a 96 year old woman who I have known since I was born, who is like a grandma to me, not to mention the hospital visits for my cornea, the Christmas parties and services in my church. I thought my God I hope no one caught this from me and at the thought I was devastated. My family consoled me saying Zoe you didn't know what it was, it's not your fault. During the six week period after the treatment I decided to take precautions just encase. I stopped going to church, visiting people, I didn't allow anyone to come over, I didn't do daily things like banking, grocery shopping, etc. I continued to vacuum every day, cleaned the house diligently, and of course laundry every single day. My husband and I stayed away from each other accept for the occasional peck on the lips quickly. I was miserable but this would soon be over. I began to make Easter plans, my bracelet launching party, plans, and planned for my step daughters visit in the summer to meet our new granddaughter. Things were not as the doctor or I thought. At the end of the six week mark, I was itchier than ever. The pimples had spread to other parts of my body and they were scabbier than ever. I made a doctor's appointment again and off I went. She looked at my body and said "these are scabies I'm absolutely 100% sure, but if the medication didn't work, I don't know what else I can do for you, so I will send you to a specialist, a dermatologist." In the next week after that disappointing appointment I began to feel bugs walking in my hair, nose, and ears. My sleep was next to nothi

RE: A Neato Question.
Hi there, I purchased it because since I can't see the dirt I tend to vacume the same spot over and over again and that slows me down. Another reason I purchased this vacume is because since I'm slow at doing things since I feel a lot this takes one chore off my hand. For example when my mom cooks it might take her an hour to make a meal but it may take me two to three hours to make the same meal. So now while I'm picking weeds or doing laundry the vacume is getting done. Regards Zoe by the intersessions of the holy Theotokos, Lord have mercy on us.

RE: Neato ap updated.
Hi Jim, I too have this vac. I don’t have any pets or guide dog. It’s very convenient, but if you are a neet freak like me well then it’s good but it doesn’t get the cob webs on the base boards. Not that I expected it too do so. For the most part it does a really good job. It goes under the beds and tables which is a bonus. Itt doesn’t do stairs of course. I find it cleans laminate floors really well, vinal tiles not as much as I would like. Ceramic tiles does very well. Carpets good too. App is easy to use once you get the hang of it. Hope this helps Regards Zoe by the intersessions of the holy Theotokos, Lord have mercy on us. Jesus said when I return will I find the faith, not will I find faith, but the faith.

Sandy you answered all my questions to the fullest now it makes me want it even more, heres hoping to some financial prosperity in the future for purchase.

Hi Zoe, Glad you like the sound of the BotVac, I certainly still like mine! I shall have a shot at answering your questions. Different types of flooring: I have wood, tile, Laminate and carpeting. I can't say that the Bot performs differently from floor to floor, but it just works! There are 2 types of brushes, which are very easy to change, One is like a squeegee, called the spiral blade brush, which, I find, is especially good for hard floors, but does a good job on carpets too! However, the other brush, the one which comes installed, is a mixture of squeegee blade and bristles. I think that this latter brush might be best for a deeper carpet brushing. I plan to use that one, say, once a week and see how that does. You were wondering about thresholds, I have various types of these, some are just a small step of about half an inch, while others are real thresholds, I.E., a sort of wooden strip, 5 inches across, which has a small up-step of a quarter of an inch, then a slope up and then down and a little fall-off, the Vac seems to take a run at it and clambers over!! I was standing very still, and the Bot climbed onto my foot, and then up my ankle! I'd say he got to about a 45 degree tip before I lost my nerve and ran off! It is like being harrassed by a big beetle! Getting onto rugs etc is no problem at all! One of the few times I got a message saying he was stuck, I found him rocking on top of the dog's rubber bone! So, I don't see a problem with your doorways. Mind you, When you get your Bot, you should have a little time to play with him and decide if it will work for you. Falling down stairs? This morning, I did my upstairs. When I did it first time, I was concerned lest he fall down. I already knew he had "cliff detection" (which I wish I had!!) but I wanted to be sure. This time I was busy elsewhere, so left him to it, with no problems. The really cool thing, I find, is that if you put him, say, upstairs, where there is no dock to go home to, he will go back, to the exact spot where you started him off. This means, you don't have to worry about finding him again! If you get into a habit of placing him in the same spot, you will always know where he is when he is quiet and finished. As far as accessibility goes, the app is well done and totally accessible, apart from the battery status, which VO can't recognise for some reason. Neither can the KNFB Reader app, as it is just a icon whith some indicator bars. I am still working on a work around for this!! You do get a few of the error messages, but not all. However, as Jeramy discovered, there is a work around for this which, in my opinion, is acceptable. Today, my internet went off and will probably, stay off until my partner gets back, so, firstly, I found the app could not find the Bot. So, I just used the Home button and it did its job for me. At one point, it stopped and "bling blonged" at me. I couldn't guess what was wrong! I felt sure I had emptied the bin, the brushes felt OK and the battery should have been fine. So, with no app and no internet, I had to get the KNFB Reader up (thank goodness it doesn't need the net to work!) took a shot of the screen on the Vac and managed to read, not perfectly, but well enough, that the bin needed emptying. I did this, though there wasn't anything in it! Maybe the act of carrying it upstairs sprinkled some loose dust on its sensors or something, but it then worked perfectly. So, if push comes to shove, An OCR app may do. I couldn't use BE My Eyes, because of the no net situation. Sorry for such a long reply, please ask anything you like about this, my new Pal! Sandy. PS If anyone, with no sight at all and one of these Vacs can tell me how they manage to dock it, manually, and be sure it is in the correct position, I would love to know how you do it! sent from the dark side of the moon > On 27 Jun 2016, at 15:54, zoe fiogkos <fiog...@rogers.com> wrote: > > Hi guys, I have been following this thread religiously because this gaget > sounds fantastic and for the most part accessible.

RE: Small update on the BotVac app accessibility.
Hi guys, I have been following this thread religiously because this gaget sounds fantastic and for the most part accessible. However I can't afford this right now but I'm hoping this will change sometime in the future, so I have some questions. My house is laminate flooring, tiles in the bathroom, carpet in the bedroom, and plastic vinil in the kitchen. Does this vacume distinguish between the different types of serfaces and vacume accordingly? Also the bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom have a small barrier in the doorways. I'm not sure how to explain this but there is a wide strip, like a small step separating the rooms from the laminate flooring in the livingroom dining room, can the vacume pass through these small barriers, can it somehow step over these seperaters? Also when I take it up stairs to another lecvel, will it know to vacume the whole level without falling down the stairs? Thanks for any help and feedback provided in advanced.

Hi Jeramy and all interested in the BotVac app accessibility! My Bot just did the ground floor and returned itself to the dock. I heard the tune and got the message "I am done cleaning", then, I heard, what I now know to be an error sound, a sort of "bling blong" repeated a few times at a minute's interval. I have had this before and when it occurs at the end of a successful cycle of cleaning, I can be fairly sure it means the bin needs emptying . But, this time, upon seeing the error showing up in the app, I tapped on "more info" and, as Jeramy said, it took me straight to the appropriate webpage and he error showed up, as I had expected, "bin full' or some such. This is great! This little discovery has just extended accessibility of the app/BotVac enormously!! Now, just the setting up of the Wifi and the battery status and we are fully there!!

RE: apple id mix up please help?
Thank you so much, icloud is fine all ready checked it, same with facetime etc. so I will follow your instructions for the app store and see if that solves the problem. I’m sure it will let you know what happends. From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: January-10-16 3:07 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: apple id mix up please help? Hi Zoe, Here is how to do this without erasing everything: 1. Open the App Store 2. The “Features” tab at the bottom left should be selected, if it is not, double tap on it to select it. 3. Now touch the features tab again and then swipe left, you should be on “Terms and Conditions”, if not, touch again the Features tab and swipe left again, sometimes it takes a moment for the page to load. 4. Swipe left one more time and you should hear “Apple Id” followed by your Apple Id email address. Double tap on this button and you hear a tone and a few options pop up, you’ll find the following on the screen: Apple Id – this is at thr top Your Apple Id email address – this is o the second line or if you swipe right once View Apple Id button – this is the first button you can tap Sign Out I forget – this is if you forgot your password and want to reset it Cancel – to cancel out of that screen. 5. You want to tap on “Sign Out”. 6. You are now back to the main screen and where before when you swiped left once from Terms and Conditions you had your Apple Id, you now have a “sign In” button, double tap on it. 7. You will have two options: “Use existing Apple Id” and “Create New Apple Id”. Double tap on “Use existing Apple Id” since your husband has an Apple Id already. 8. On the next screen you have two edit fields, one to type in your husband’s Apple Id and then of course one for his Apple Id password. Enter these and tap on “OK” then he’ll be signed in with his Apple Id. If he is also signed in to iMessage and Facetime with your Apple Id you have to go to each of them in Settings > Messages and Settings > Facetime, double tap on the Apple Id, sign out and sign back in with his Apple Id. Potentially you also want to check in Settings > iCloud and make sure he is signed in there with his own Apple Id.

videos on an iPhone 6
Hi guys, my husband who is sited got a free iphone 6 and for the most part he is loving it. Even though I'm a blind user I'm successfully teaching him how to use it, but I've run into 2 problems and I'm hoping you guys can help. I don't know if I'm having a brain fart, excuse my language or if I've never done this and simply don't know how. Problem 1 my husband took a home video and he wants to save it onto our laptop. Using itunes how do we save the video onto our laptop so we can delete it off his phone. His phone is only 16 gb capacity so he wants to save things on the laptop. How do we do this. Problem 2 we want to use facetime between us but on my phone which is a 6 plus I can't see him on facetime. When I go into my contacts for example Kathy, voiceover says iphone text iphone call iphone facetime. But when I go under my husband I only get text and call. Any ideas?

RE: videos on an iPhone 6
Hi Sieghard Sounds easy enough, that is how I copy and save my photos, so there shouldn’t be a problem. I will try it when he gets home. Thanks so much for waking up my brain to do this. As for the facetime, it’s very strange. I’ve checked all his settings, he’s connected, facetime is on, etc. And still I was unable to see the facetime option under his name in contacts, however when another member suggested I view an imessage from him, I did so and bang the option appeared under his name when I went into contact. Very strange and I can’t explain it but somehow the problem is solved. Again thanks for helping I really appreciate it. By the way I want to say thanks to you for being such an active and helpful member on this list because I have learned a lot from you just by reading your responses for help to various problems of all the different members who ask for help. Sometimes you have solved my problems or answered my inquireies Without even knowing it. So I thought I would take this opportunity to send you my sincerest thanks from the bottom of my heart. I wish more people were like you and of course some other members on this list, who help without any materialistic or financial compensation and you seem to enjoy helping and that makes it even more special.

Connect your iPhone to the PC with the Lightning cable, open Windows Explorer with Windows Key+E, find the iPhone which should show up and you can browse to the images folder, find the photo and/or video you want to copy and just copy and paste. You may or may not be able to delete it from there as well, for me I somehow can’t delete pictures, others have said they can, but once copied, you can always go to the Photos app on the iPhone and delete the video there. As for Facetime and iMessage, make sure he has this turned on in Settings and also that he is connected to the internet either via WiFi or via cellular data.

I don’t know if I’m having a brain fart, excuse my language or if I’ve never done this and simply don’t know how. Problem 1 my husband took a home video and he wants to save it onto our laptop. Using itunes how do we save the video onto our laptop so we can delete it off his phone. His phone is only 16 gb capacity so he wants to save things on the laptop. How do we do this.

When I go into my contacts for example Kathy, voiceover says iphone text iphone call iphone facetime. But when I go under my husband I only get text and call. Any ideas?

RE: videos on an iPhone 6
I guess that is a salution. I'm curious though why am I given the option for facetime with all my other contacts who have iphones but not with my husband? Any ideas? Like I said I guess its not a big deal since I can go through the facetime app but it's mind boggleing why I have the option with everyone else in the contacts and not him. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Rajmund Sent: December-29-15 11:15 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: videos on an iPhone 6 Hello, I'll give a spin to question 2.

solution for my facebook mesanger videos
Hi everyone since no one new how to help me, I asked my friends and did some investigating on my own and figured it out. Just in case someone wants to know how to do it, here's my explanation. I could not figure it out using the iPhone, but I did figure it out using the computer. I'm sure the process would be similar for a mac and a pc. Basically I went into facebook, I clicked on messages, then I clicked on the name of the person who sent me the messages. As I scrolled through the messages, I heard graphics. When I got to the video I heard play video and I clicked on it, now with windows I was given the option to save, but I'm sure with the mac you could right click and download and save the video. Now I think I can somehow import this video to iTunes and transfer it to my iPhone if I want. Regards Zoe p.s. may be someone can give me instructions how to put it on my phone, if you know how, thanks so much -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

RE: [Bulk] RE: Why does my iPhone hiss at me!!!
Guys the swishing sound you guys are hearing is a feature for sighted people. When you touch the home key if you ever so gently touch it twice without pressing it you will hear the swoosh sound. What that actually does is it moves the top half of the screen to the bottom so that people don't have to stretch there fingers to get to the top half of the screen. Don't worry about it, it does nothing for blind users accept to give us a nice sound effect.

I turn voiceover off and with one finger swipe down and I see all the messages scrolling till I get to the top of the conversation, I turn voiceover back on and it reads me the first message but then that's it, no matter how much I flick it doesn't read anymore messages. Any ideas? Can anyone help? Using voiceover how can I read this lengthy thread of messages?

RE: [Bulk] Re: [Bulk] Talking atlas for iPad
Hi tom, thanks for responding so quickly. I’m so disappointed because I don’t have an ipad could you possibly give me an email for the developer so I could send him a request. I’m a lover of geography and this sounds absolutely fantastic, if I could afford an ipad I would get it just for this app no matter how stupid that sounds that’s the way I feel. Thanks again.

virus apple accessibility team
Good evening fellow listers, Today while having my morning coffee, I picked up my iPhone (which by the way is a 6 plus running the latest ios) to watch days of our lives like I do every day. I opened safari, the page I usually watch the show on, and it would not let me click to watch the video. A pop up appeared saying virus detected ios security or something to that affect. I didn't know how to get out of this pop-up. The background was gray and this pop-up in the middle my only choice was an ok button. Panicking I clicked it and it took me to some other website. Quickly coming to my senses I clicked home button and got out of there. However I thought when I click on safari again it will take me to the same website. I went into safari and clicked pages and clicked close on that website. I lost voiceover and had to do a hard reset because nothing on the phone worked. When I restarted the phone everything seemed fine. So smart me said let me try this again. I went back to the website and I saw where I usually click to watch the video now voiceover was saying click to close add and continue, so sounded logical and I clicked it, oh no, now we have a new problem. Like before a pop-up appeared saying safari security major issue please contact apple support at 1877-203-4097 or I think that's the number. Automatically my wheels in my little brain began to work and I thought something isn't right. Since I'm a voiceover user I thought I better call apple accessibility and make sure that I'm actually speaking to someone from apple, and not any tom, dick, or harry. I called apple accessibility at the number that you wonderful people on these lists have provided, (by the way thanks for that). They were wonderful, patient, and absolutely a pleasure to deal with. The website apparently has been hacked and the pop-up with the phone number is a scam to get you to call them so they can ask you for all your personal information. At least that's what the teck thought. He told me to stay away from that website for a few days in hopes that they get it sorted it out, and of course reminded me to never call a number that says they are apple support but to always call the numbers I know to be true. In speaking with the teck I told him about some problems I'm having reading my Greek recipes on the mac using the rss readers and he passed me over to a mac tech that is familiar with voiceover and we played around with the mac for a while. I'm so impressed with the people I spoke to today. Just wanted to let you all know about my strange experience and my wonderful experience with apple accessibility. I feel I should post this to all the lists I belong to that deal with apple products so people can read about my experience and not make the same mistakes I did. So please accept my appologies if you get this more then once. Have a great evening Zoe -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

new iPhone 6+
Hi all, my wonderful husband got me an iPhone 6plus for Christmas, wich for me was this past Wednesday. I thought I would share my thoughts on the phone with the list. I am severely visually impaired but not totally blind so I do depend on voiceover. Having said that for those of you who have some vision, here is what I have to say. The colors on the six plus are stunning, the clarity is fantastic. I cannot see pictures by holding them in my hand but with a cctv something seems to compute with my eyes, so viewing pictures on an iphone six plus has given me the ability to see what my husband looks like after 18 years of marriage, scary, just kidding. The speaker is fantastic my music sounds fantastic, battery life is significantly better then my 4s. There is lots of room on my home screen so having all my folders that I had on my 4s doesn't take up the whole screen. On my 4s the folders took up the whole screen from what I can see I have lots more room for more folders. I haven't had the chance to play with the features that I didn't have on the 4s but so far I'm loving it. Yes it's certainly much bigger then the 4s but that doesn't bother me, usually visually impaired people like bigger screens. I like both the zoom view and the standard view of the phone but haven't decided wich one I'm going to stick with. That's all for now as I play with it more I'll let you all know my likes, dislikes, and observations. Regards Zoe -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

RE: [Bulk] Re: feedback from a multi-lingual user
Hi I can also confirm these bugs. I use English and Greek. Speech rate changes on it's own, however in my case autodetect languages in mail, text messages, notifications etc. works but doesn't work properly. Meaning when Greek text is detected voiceover starts speaking Greek, but it does it improperly. What do I mean you ask? It reads letters instead of words and sentences, and it reads some of the Greek letters in Greek and some in English, so I hear 2 voices. Of course as soon as the language is detected since I know of this problem, I use the roter and switch languages and problem solved and I'm able to hear the proper text by the proper voice. I have told apple about this way back in ios 6 but they haven't fixed it. The issue of the speech rate changing came with the latest update. I'm still happy that my iPhone can read my native tongue so no complaints, and I am greatful that with the new and latest update Greek has been included in the dictate feature that comes with voiceover accessability. Before the latest update I had to use dragon dictate for anything I wanted to write in Greek but now I have the dictate, now only if they would add a Greek spell check that would be great.

This app allows you to type whatever you want on your Windows computer and have the text instantly show on your iDevice. You can send text from your iPod or iPhone with or without your iDevice being attached to your computer and you do not need iTunes running. Here's how you use this app. You type in a url into the Run dialogue of your Windows computer (you only have to do this once and save the path as a shortcut on your desktop etc). You are then presented with a very simple and easy to use screen with a single edit field. You type in your message into the edit field then down arro to a send button, and your text will instantaneously show on the TextSync app on your iOS device. You can now use the Copy button in the TextSync app to copy the text to the iOS clipboard and move the text into any other app. I launched Internet Explorer on my Windows desktop computer and copied a Wikipedia article with 137,000 characters and pasted in the desktop version of the TextSync edit field, and it took only a couple of seconds for the text to be copied to my iPod--it is definitely a fast little app. Again, it is important to Note that your iDevice does not have to be physically connected to your desktop at all. Nice!. Since I want to be able to fill my iPod with very important private information, I contacted the app developer to inquire about the security of his app. Here is his reply/explanation: Hello, The security is ensured by P2P direct link via IP, thus there is no chance to perform a mid-person attack (which happens when you attempt to connect to a server by entering domain name, which need DNS servers to resolve the IP address). The direct link need no DNS server, and all your data stream remains on the local network, not over the Internet. You can rely on the Wi-Fi connection. Here is the link where you can read up on this app including a very good audio podcast on how to use this app. http://www.applevis.com/apps/ios/productivity/textsync-typing-computer Here is the link to the apps store: TextSync - Typing from computer on the App Store on iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/textsync-typing-from-computer/id866535807?mt =8ign-mpt=uo%3D8 Oh yeah, though this app is $3 I'm using the free version, after the initial ad when starting the app, the additional very small ads at the bottom of the screen don't interfere with the use of this app at all. For $3, this is a great buy and sure to be one of my most used apps when I make the purchase. Joseph -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

RE: TextSync - Send text from a Windows computer to your iOS device
Thank you so much for all the detailed instruction, while I was waiting for a response from the list, I figured it out. I'm so excited about this app, it sounds like it will be very yseful to me. Thank you again so much for the help. Regards Zoe -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: June-11-14 9:05 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: TextSync - Send text from a Windows computer to your iOS device Zoe, the first step is to get the TextSync app on your iPhone 4S. It sounds as if you might have already downloaded it to your computer through iTunes which would give you the option of syncing your computer to your phone through iTunes to transfer the app to your phone. Your other choice is to go to the Apps Store on your phone, search for TextSync with no spaces between Text and Sync and download it straight to your phone. The developer is Notable Group. I think this would be easier than syncing the computer to your phone via iTunes to transfer the app. Once the app is installed on your phone, the first time you run it, you will be presented with the URL you will need to put in the address box on your computer's browser in order to link your computer with your phone. This is the URL you were asking about in your post. You should bookmark this URL address in your computer's browser. Be aware that the URL provided by the app consists of numbers, periods, and a colon within it such as 192.168.1.35:1515. I have my phone set to only pronounce some punctuation and this colon was not spoken by VoiceOver on my phone. In my case, the colon came before the last 4 numerical digits in the URL. Once the URL provided by the TextSync app is successfully entered into your browser, a box will open on your browser while the app is running on your phone and anything you type into that box will automatically appear in the comparable box on the app. There is a button below the box allowing you to copy this text to make it easy to transfer it to another app on the phone for pasting. It is also possible to place text into the box on the app for transfer up to the computer into the TextSync URL opened in your browser. I hope the above makes sense but write back if you have more questions. The app is very useful.

This app allows you to type whatever you want on your Windows computer and have the text instantly show on your iDevice. You can send text from your iPod or iPhone with or without your iDevice being attached to your computer and you do not need iTunes running. Here's how you use this app. You type in a url into the Run dialogue of your Windows computer (you only have to do this once and save the path as a shortcut on your desktop etc). You are then presented with a very simple and easy to use screen with a single edit field. You type in your message into the edit field then down arro to a send button, and your text will instantaneously show on the TextSync app on your iOS device. You can now use the Copy button in the TextSync app to copy the text to the iOS clipboard and move the text into any other app. I launched Internet Explorer on my Windows desktop computer and copied a Wikipedia article with 137,000 characters and pasted in the desktop version of the TextSync edit field, and it took only a couple of seconds for the text to be copied to my iPod--it is definitely a fast little app. Again, it is important to Note that your iDevice does not have to be physically connected to your
RE: Suggestions Needed Concerning How to accumulate gold in Solara Game, and Questions to anyone who has completed the Game
Hi everyone I really love this game. Once the wonderful developers added the manage shops button, things are much easier. When starting the game you don't realize that the castle expantions will stop around the 30 level mark from what I can see the castle is 12 by 24 when I got to this state I had to delete a lot of little shops that were giving me small amounts of gold and build the bigger ones. That is the whole idea I think that you will destroy smaller shops as you progress through the game to make room for the bigger ones. Some times you half to just camp out and accumulate gold so that you can use at the later more expensive levels and believe me they get really expensive both for building shops and training heros. I have but esper to help me along and to support the developers but you don't need to, you can play the game all the way through with pretty good results. My only beef with this fantastic otherwise game is I feel the arena is very unfair. I have a funny feeling that if you manage to win first place in the arena more then two times no matter what you do it will not let you even get close to first place. I have one in the early stages twice and ever since then even if I up levels during the week to be the same with other players, even if I change my hero combinations, even if I battle castles with heros at least three levels down from me a lot of the times I get a big fat defeat. There have been times where I did nothing no building no questing no nothing accept fight in the arena we are talking about approx. 400 fights in a day and no results accept for defeats. I think that's a little unfair because yes everyone should win and have a chance but concoring a game with constant play compaired to someone who may play only once a week makes the game sort of rigged lol, don't get me wrong I'm not complaining as much as it sounds like I am just sharing my observations. I otherwise love the game and I can't wait for the developers to come out with solara 2 or some other game. I hope when I reach level 50 there will be an option to restart the game, but I have no idea I'm on level 40. Anyhow sorry for the long message but just wanted to share my thoughts.

RE: Suggestions Needed Concerning How to accumulate gold in Solara Game, and Questions to anyone who has completed the Game
Exactly your right. I find some times the battle button gives me a few more wins then other times the chalange a close rival gives me more wins, I guess it depends on what the computer wants to do no matter what we want. The other thing that baffles me is even if I use the skip button to go through the fights faster there are some people that I noticed may go up even more then a 100 points in a few minutes. I too have gone up quite a bit in a few minutes when using the skip button and getting ratings like +20 but I've noticed on the first day of battles people going up 1000 points in a very short amount of time, how do they do it? Why aren't they getting defeats? Meaning let's say for argument sake someone has a max food of 1000 food and they keep clicking skip, obviously they are going to move up very quickly all most like magic but the question remains why aren't they getting defeats? I've done the same thing by moving really quickly but when I'm getting victory after victory all of a sudden I'm getting like 5 or 6 defeats in a row and all my hard work goes for nothing. Hope my rambling makes sense but the truth of the matter is I'm stumped and really trying to figure it out. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jack Conti Sent: September-18-13 12:18 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Suggestions Needed Concerning How to accumulate gold in Solara Game, and Questions to anyone who has completed the Game no, winning has nothing to do with it. i am at level 50 and have lost to 3 level 45 heroes. and next try beaten three 49 level heroes.

language settings help please
Hi listers, first of all I have not been able to send mail for a while due to technical issues that now have been solved, so just wanted to say it's great to be back. Now onto my issue and questions. Since I speak 2 languages fluently like a lot of people, obviously the accessibility issues on the iphone have some what solved this for me. However having said that and being greatful to apple for giving me the opertunity to read write and access content in my native language I have an issue that I'm baffled by. I have my iphone language set to English and the Greek language as a secondary language, I flick up and down to access the 2 languages but unfortunately there is a bug and the Greek is not working correctly and apple knows about this, the only work around for this at this point is to actually set the iphone language layout to Greek everytime I want to read Greek. I know none of you can solve the bug issue, but my question is this, why can't I set the iphone language to Greek and English as a secondary language? I would like the main language to be Greek and to turn the roter to language, flick up and switch to English when I need, if I have the main layout set to English and flick up I get the Greek, why can't it be the other way around? Does anyone know how to set this up? I hope I've made my issue clear and that it doesn't come across as rambling to those reading. Sorry for the long message and hope someone out there can help, and of course I appreciate everyone's help and valuable time.

On all these lists I kept on hearing about this game but wasn't interested, just plainly because it didn't seem to be my cup of tea. One day I was bored and thought to my self what is the big deal with this game? Why is everyone talking about it so much. Well, I downloaded it to my iPhone 4s and ever since I can't put the iPhone down, not only that but my husband who is fully sighted tries to steal the phone away from me when I'm busy so he can play. Firstly I'm so impressed at how accessible this game is. Secondly I love the sound effects that I have the game running all day, even when I'm waiting to restock in food or something, I just have it next to me and the sound of the ocean relaxes me so much, side note I love the ocean so much, that if I believed in past lives and all that, then I'm sure I was a dolphin or mermaid, while I first had the game running and my husband had know idea about the game, he thought he was going crazy and was looking to find crickets in our house. The game needs a lot of patients to succeed but it's also very entertaining. I never thought I would like a strategy game, or anything like that but I'm so hooked that I decided to share my thoughts with you guys. I hope people try it out, and I'd like to know if anyone knows the developer info because I'm so impressed I'd like to thank them and share my thoughts with them, also do these developers make other games similar? Mind you if they do it will be a while until I can start another game because I'm only on level 18 and have a long way to go until I finish this game, but when I'm done I would like to start something just as entertaining and accessible. Thanks for listening all and boy is it hard to gather esper, for those just starting the game don't waist your esper for food and stupid things you'll need it later.

a few thoughts on Solara
Hi everyone, I just wanted to share my thoughts with you on the game Solara. On all these lists I kept on hearing about this game but wasn't interested, just plainly because it didn't seem to be my cup of tea. One day I was bored and thought to my self what is the big deal with this game? Why is everyone talking about it so much. Well, I downloaded it to my iPhone 4s and ever since I can't put the iPhone down, not only that but my husband who is fully sighted tries to steal the phone away from me when I'm busy so he can play. Firstly I'm so impressed at how accessible this game is. Secondly I love the sound effects that I have the game running all day, even when I'm waiting to restock in food or something, I just have it next to me and the sound of the ocean relaxes me so much, side note I love the ocean so much, that if I believed in past lives and all that, then I'm sure I was a dolphin or mermaid, while I first had the game running and my husband had know idea about the game, he thought he was going crazy and was looking to find crickets in our house. The game needs a lot of patients to succeed but it's also very entertaining. I never thought I would like a strategy game, or anything like that but I'm so hooked that I decided to share my thoughts with you guys. I hope people try it out, and I'd like to know if anyone knows the developer info because I'm so impressed I'd like to thank them and share my thoughts with them, also do these developers make other games similar? Mind you if they do it will be a while until I can start another game because I'm only on level 18 and have a long way to go until I finish this game, but when I'm done I would like to start something just as entertaining and accessible. Thanks for listening all and boy is it hard to gather esper, for those just starting the game don't waist your esper for food and stupid things you'll need it later. Before I go I know this app has in app purchases but now that I've played this game I'd gladly pay for it if it wasn't free.

Re: a few thoughts on Solara
Thank you chela I will try that address. Christine, as I said in my message watch your esper, don't waist it, when you run out of food, it will offer you more food using your esper don't accept. Esper is hard to aquire and some buildings cost a lot of esper. Now to your question, at the top left of course holding the phone in landscape of the screen if you gently touch and move slowly you will find how much gold you have, voiceover will say something like 123 gold, if you flick to the right you'll hear voiceover anounce something like 211 esper, if you flick again voiceover will anounce something like this 123/200 food, if you flick again to the right voiceover will say,something like this 5 population, flick again right and voiceover anounces,level progress 25 percent, flick again and voiceover announces the level your on for example level 1, flick again right and voiceover anounces screenshot button, flick again right and you will hear, quests, flick right again and you will hear, people button, flick again and you'll hear, options button, flick again and you'll hear, iapp store and treasure, flick again right and you'll hear, arena, flick again and you'll hear, heroes, flick right again and you'll hear,built button, flick again right and you'll hear, collect 123 gold from 1 shops for example or if you have no gold to collect you'll hear collect from shops dimmed, flick again right and you'll hear open new shops. now find the quest button and double tap on it, when your taken to the next screen you'll see name of quests listed, double tap on the one you want, when the game takes you to the next screen move your finger towards the left top corner of your screen until you hear back button then start flicking to the right and you'll hear a deiscription of the quest the heros name and a few other things like rewards experience etc. keep flicking until you hear voiceover announce fight button, double tap that button now your taken to another screen where depending on the level your on you either choose your heros and click the fight with 2 food button or something like that. I say something like that because i don't remember on level one if it gives you the option to choose your heros. Anyhow there is a lot more I can explain to you, or walk you through but unfortunately I can't do it tonight because I'm going on a day trip tomorrow and need to get to bed earlier then usual, if you want to wait until the weekend i would be happy to help you out.

facebook app
Hey everyone, There's an update for facebook, I updated and didn't think anything of it. Today I was reading an article on the bbc and clicked share to share on facebook and since I was there I decided to brouse the newsfeed and see what my friends are up to since I'm not a daily facebook user, and omg to my surprise! When you flick right to go through the news feed, now voice over says double tap to like share or coment if you double tap a menu pops up with the three choices and you double tap the one you want. Wonderful no more fumbling around to find the like or share or comment button. Regards Zoe twitter @FiogkosZoe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: facebook app, some questions
my only complaint so far is that when you enter the chat screen there is no back button. It's great that voiceover now anounces who is online and who is not but hey facebook app people where the heck is the back button when i'm done. Also when you click on a person's name who is not online to send them a message golly gee here we go again there is no back button.

Hi everyone, I play a game on my phone called match my music and I really like it but I would like to contact the developer to make some suggestions but when I'm in the app store on my phone and I swipe to the left I hear voiceover say developer information and then when I flick left again I hear voiceover saying unpronounceable and I don't know how to contact the developer and I really want to.

Delete the text that's already there and then just switch to numbers on the virtual keypad and enter in the correct number. Then double tap the save button.

So in my observation of playing the game on a daily basis and the game responding differently with VO with any game play on any given day I can say that this is a flaw in the game itself.

Re: mousekick help please
Hello Jan, Thank you for actually being interested in the problems the app is causing. The three finger swipe doesn't work in the training mode or the gaming mode. I do have some vision and the button you mention in the training mode is not visible. Therefore voiceover or no that option is out. Just in case i'm missing something i'll have my husband look at it, he is fully sighted. Just to repeat the three finger swipe left doesn't work in either mode weather you hold the phone in landscape or portrait.

On which device do you play MouseKick? If the three-finger swipe to the left doesn't work at all, there is a workaround to leave the training mode: There is, indeed, a back button on the screen in the lower left corner of the screen. However, you cannot reach it with VoiceOver, since I want to save a blind user from accidentally hitting it. The finger swipe should provide the same functionality. If you turn VoiceOver off, you can tap the button and leave the training mode. The same button also appears in a real game. However, we have to find out, why the swipe gesture doesn't work, since this is the preferred way to quit a game. Greetings Jan --- MouseKick - The mice are coming!

rebuying text grabber translator
Hi all, here's a doozy for you all. Most of you probably know I bought an app that I wasn't happy with, and iTunes refunded me for the bad app. Here's where the problem comes in, they made a mistake and refunded me the 99 cents that I paid for the abbyy text grabber translator. I told them I'm happy with that app and that I don't want a refund for that one. Basically they told me sorry for the misunderstanding but the refund has all ready gone through, and now you need to rebuy the app because you won't be eligible for the updates. I uninstalled the app from my iPhone 4s and tried installing it again but it doesn't ask me for money it just installs it self again. Any ideas? What should I do?

At the time I thought as soon as I could afford it I definitely would invest in this app. A few days ago my husband got me an app store card. By now there was a lot of apps I wanted since I laid my eyes on zoomreader back in February. Since zoomreader is $20.00 and that was the full amount of the card, I decided to get some other things I wanted and get the zoomreader another time. I got the sluzzle game and abbyy text grabber and translator, and so far I am really happy with the purchases I made. I also wanted to get a portable cctv in February because that was also demonstrated to me at the University but they are very expensive, and this morning I was browsing the via app and I clicked on cctv and magnification and came across an app called seeit, and after reading the description decided to get it, here is where my frustration starts. The app comes with an invert feature which works just fine, it makes the page black with white text which is the only way my eyes can actually see printed material. The app is pretty straight forward, there is a flash light button on the top right hand corner of the screen. At the bottom there is a normal button, color button, an invert button and a resume/pause button. The app when you open it basically automatically opens your video camera using the rear facing camera. Right above these buttons is a long bar that if you swipe up and down it's suppose to zoom the screen. All buttons work with voiceover. I placed a cd cover on a white counter background and low and behold in the middle of the screen there is a black square with white lines on it. I try zooming it but nothing. When I move the camera close to the document the white lines become large blurry peaces of text. I let the I phone stand still for it to autofocus and maybe that will clear up the text, but nothing. I tried with regular color but nothing, I tried with the flash light on and off but nothing. I let my fully sighted husband try the app, and guess what? he couldn't get the text clear unless he had it at it's smallest zoom level and even then he had to wear his glasses to read the print. The app has a problem zooming and auto focusing and it doesn't replace thousand dollar portable cctv's as the seller describes on the app store. I just wasted seven dollars from my gift card which could have went somewhere else to give me accessibility in another app to make my life easier. I contacted apple and they told me they could not help me with support because I bought my I phone a year ago and I was not entitled to support unless I paid $35.00 then I told the lady that it was regarding the app store, an app that doesn't stand up to it's description, and that who do I contact about a refund. She told me the only way to get help was to visit www.expresslane.apple.com So I did, all I got was frequently asked questions, articles, and tricks tips, and instructions.

Re: mousekick help please
I'm so sorry, i think you missunderstood, I don't have my phone locked in portrait the problem as i said is that the app says to three finger swipe left to exit the training mode, but it doesn't work, I had to exit the app and take the app out of the app switcher and then re open the app to get to the home screen.

I am sorry that you had this trouble so far. Please try to unlock your device orientation before playing MouseKick. Regrettably, there is an orientation bug in the app, which sometimes messes up the game and training view. What you told about your problems may come from this. I already submitted an update that fixes the bug to Apple. So it will very soon be published. Just contact me, if you should have further questions or hints. Any feedback is appreciated.

Re: Facebook app frustrations
Hello Christine, I too had the same problem, the way I worked around it is I double tap on one of the notifications and once in the actual notification then the back button appears which takes you to the news feed or your main menu. When I first started using the facebook app, and I would be flicking to the left to brouse the newsfeed I was able to stop on a certain post and feel for the like button and when voiceover would confirm that I was there I would double tap it, however this is no longer the case, now when I want to like or comment or see likes or comments I half to actually stop on the post I want double tap it to enter and then all the options are visible and working.

I had my Daughter take a look at the screen, just incase the button might have been moved to a newer location on the screen, I think lately, the App might have been updated and the Back button is no longer there. So, what I found does work, is to double tap on the Notification Heading and that shouldprompt you out of that screen and allow you access to the main screen again. Try this, it should work, I know I was stuck in that one screen myself, and it was a pain to get out. Hope this helps. Take care. -Original Message- From: Christine Grassman Sent: Sunday, June 16, 2013 8:34 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Facebook app frustrations All righty, fellow Facebook folks: I am trying to figure out why, and more importantly, if there is a workaround for the following issues: 1. Liking something sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. (I find this is true both on the phone and on my Mac.) 2. When I want to see who liked a post, sometimes it will show me, and other times it will go to the one page of the last person to like. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to this. 3. When I check my notifications, on the phone, there does not seem to be a back button; am I missing something? 4. Sometimes when I want to like on someone's page because of something shared, I can only like the shared link on its original page, not on my friend's page. 5. There are times when I click on a friend's page to read further something posted, and the app does nothing at all. 6. Sometimes I cannot get to the posted link, or read the comments. (I realize some people's privacy settings might not permit me to see their comments, but it is unlikely that this is true of all of the people on the larger sites I am referring to.) Any workarounds, explanations, and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Happy Father's Day to those to whom it applies.

Re: status bar
I've noticed the same thing and had the same thoughts, is this my imagination, did I not notice it before? The more I think about it I'm sure it wasn't there before.

Re: Hello and help please
So here goes, the 2 finger swipe doesn't work. In contaplating this matter, I went into the settings and took down the text size from 56 to 40 and low and behold problem solved. The 2 finger swipe works but also the flicking. If at least one letter of the first word in the message is showing on the screen then the 2 finger swipe or flicking works and voiceover reads the message, however if i have text set to the highest possible then voiceover refuses to read the body until text from the body is visible, and the only way to get visible text from the body at such a large text is by turning voiceover off and scrolling the text up. I was hoping to keep my large text but voiceover doesn't agree so I half to settle for 2 levels down unless someone knows of another trick. Thanks so much for the help.

Re: Hello and help please
Yes your absolutely right in your instructions, everything now works. I still have the extra step of turning zoom on but once a play with it a while I'm sure it will be second nature. Thanks for all your help. - Original Message - From: Alan Lemly wale...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2013 12:40 PM Subject: RE: Hello and help please Zoe, I would suggest you turn Zoom on in your settings by going to Settings, General, Accessibility. The Zoom setting will be near the top and I believe comes right after the VoiceOver setting. After you turn this on, whenever you do a 3-finger double tap, the screen will be magnified. When you first do the 3-finger double tap, you can hold on the screen after that second tap and move your three fingers to increase or decrease magnification. Once the screen is magnified, moving your three fingers on the screen will cause it to scroll. After you set the Zoom setting on, I would suggest you decrease the font size of your text to avoid the type of conflicts with VoiceOver the large text setting is causing you. I would also recommend that you start using VoiceOver more to read to you since it really does an excellent job. With the Zoom turned on, you will be able to magnify the screen on the fly as you need it so the larger fonts shouldn't be necessary. Note that with the Zoom setting turned on, the 3-finger double tap which normally turns speech on and off for those not using Zoom now turns magnification on and off. To turn speech on and off, you will need to do a 3-finger triple tap. A 3-finger triple tap turns the screen curtain on and off for those not using Zoom but for those using Zoom, you need a 3-finger quadruple tap. I hope this helps but please post back if you have more questions.

Yes another member suggested the exact same thing. It's an option that seems to work, however taking the text size down two levels does the trick too. but I'm glad to know about how to use zoom thanks to the instructions given by another member. In any case finally voiceover is reading the messages. - Original Message - From: Raul A.
