Re: Kindle app or kindle

also, the amazon fire 7 inch screen, which i bought at the beginning of the 
year, has a better processor, and as well as the native amazon underground 
store, you can sideload the google app store.


if someone wants to get a feel for the android system at a very reasonable 
price, well you can't go wrong!

From the little I've heard, you're better off using the iOS Kindle app.

Amazons voice assistant thing for older Kindles is lackluster, at best. You
have much more flexibility over reviewing text with VoiceOver than you do
with Amazons clunky, bolted on solution.

When I think Kindle, I think of devices like the Kindlo Paperwhite, not the 
Fire tablets. So, sorry for my comments disparraging aeathat product. I wasn't 
thinking of it when I was thinking of Kindle devices. I think of Kindles as 
sort of one-trick ponies, not the tablets they've been coming out with lately.

Re: Kindle app or kindle

2016-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
The original question came from someone who was happy with the Kindle app and 
was looking to find out if there were advantages to purchasing a Kindle device. 
I can't see any in terms of reading kindle books, unless you particularly like 
the voices that are offered on fire. Or maybe you just like to mess with 
gadgets. And that $40 tablet is cheap. The speaker is awful. And it's on the 
back. But it works. And for $40 on sale, you can't complain. I am disappointed 
that Amazon has chosen not to offer all of the Ivona voices, which they own, 
for download for use with their devices. I wonder why they haven't done so. I 
wrote to their excess ability department, and got no response. No surprise.

considering, kindle is an amazon product. it works just as good as the 
kindle app.


it just runs on the android system, which many blind people get on with just 
fine!


the amazon fire, which is about 40 pounds, in the UK, is a lot cheaper than 
an iphone.


also it isn't clunky, it is just a different operating system.

Speach is fine, and there are very good voices, which you can download for 
free, also you can buy a higher spec tablet, which is still much cheaper, 
than the iPhone.


But for 40 pounds, you can't grumble!

It boils down to personal preference.

Re: Kindle app or kindle

2016-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
If you're happy with the app, there isn't really any need to get a Kindle. I 
have one of the cheap Kindle fire tablet that I picked up for $40 a few months 
ago. It's OK. For that price, it's great. But the app there doesn't really do 
anything that the Kindle app doesn't do. So unless you really want the voices 
that are available on Kindle device, I don't see why you'd want one, unless you 
just like Messing with gadgets. Frankly, the reason I purchased the Kindle fire 
was it somebody told me a particular voice was available. It happens to be my 
favorite female reading voice, and it's not available on Kindle on iOS. 
Unfortunately, I found out that that voice is in fact not available on the 
Kindle fire. Oh well. One thing I do like about the Kindle device is reading 
books in Russian, because I like the voice there. But that's hardly a common 
thing for folks in this country.

we’ll go from there.

Re: Kindle once more

2016-01-25 Thread Russ Kiehne
Here is how I buy Kindle books on my Ios device:

from the book Kindle for iOS Accessibility Gestures - Quick Reference Guide.epub

You can shop from the Kindle Store using the Safari browser and deliver Kindle 
titles to the Kindle reading app on your iPad, Phone, or iPod touch. Your 
device must be connected to a wireless or data network in order to download 
Kindle content to your Kindle reading app. 
>From the Safari browser, visit the Kindle Store website: 
· iPad: www.amazon.com/ipadkindlestore 
· iPhone or iPad touch: www.amazon.com/kindlemobilestore 
 
1.   Sign in to the Kindle Store with the same Amazon account you used when 
you registered the Kindle reading app. Browse for Kindle titles you want to 
read, and then tap to view the product detail page. 
2.   To send the Kindle title to your device, from the Send wirelessly to 
drop-down menu, select your device. If you don't see your device, make sure you 
signed in with the Amazon account registered to your iPad, iPhone, or iPod 
touch. 
3.   Tip: Tap Try a Sample to download the beginning of a book for free. 
4.   After you purchase content, your titles are delivered to the Kindle 
app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Check your cloud tab.

He does not have to buy a Kindle. He can get the free Kindle app from the app 
store accessed on his iPhone. He downloads that and signs in with his Amazon 
account credentials, then he can buy books on the web. He cannot buy them in 
the Kindle app, because Apple wants a big cut of the price of books. So Amazon 
does not let iPhone app users buy books from within the app can't blame them 
very much for not wanting to give Apple 30% of the cost of the book. But, he 
buys the book on the web, and right there on the website, he tells Amazon to 
send the book to his iPhone Kindle app, and it shows up. No fuss no Mas.

  Hello listers,

  Sorry I may have asked this question before.  My nephew loves math and 
science.  He found interesting books on amazon; but they were all kindle books. 
 The prices were very low; but he does not have kindle.  My question is if he 
downloads the kindle application on the iPhone 5c that he has, will they work? 
Where and how does he download it?  Is it for free or does he have to pay for 
it?  Does he have to buy the kindle device itself?  Which one do you advise me 
to buy for him if I will end up doing so?
  Many thanks for any help

Re: Kindle ap question

2016-01-05 Thread Chuck Dean
 When you're in the Kindle app, at the bottom, there are two buttons. One says 
cloud, and one says device. If you select the device option, it will only show 
books that are downloaded to the device. All archive books are in the cloud.


 So, if you choose the device option, after you read a book, and then archive 
it, it will not show on the screen.

I hope this helps,

However, there deson’t seem to be any notation on the archives list that the

RE: Kindle Help Please

2015-08-13 Thread Alan Lemly
Desi,

As Anna has said, go to Amazon on your computer and find the book in the
Kindle Store or in your Wish List and purchase it through your browser.
You'll be given the option of picking the device where you want to put the
book provided you have multiple devices on which to play it. I have the
Kindle for PC program on my computer but I always put Kindle books on my
iPhone. After you complete the purchase, the book should be listed on your
device in the Kindle app.

Re: Kindle app and Voice Dream Reader.

2015-03-01 Thread Christopher Chaltain
In the US, passing on digital media is illegal, although you should 
definitely check what you agreed to when you purchased the material, 
sometimes a limited amount of sharing is allowed. Unfortunately, 
breaking DRM even for your own purposes, is not clearly legal in the US. 
For my part, and I'm not a lawyer, I think breaking DRM for your own 
personal use is covered under the fair use act and is further allowed if 
you're doing it for purposes of accessibility. Sony for example doesn't 
think it's legal to break DRM for your own personal use even under the 
fair use provisions but has not chosen to pursue this opinion in court. 
Whether it's legal or not is one issue, but whether it's allowed under 
the agreement you signed when you purchased the material is another 
question. It may not be illegal, but the company could take action 
against you such as revoking your membership or preventing you from 
purchasing material in the future.


I'm not defending the DMCA or DRM provisions, but I'm just saying that 
this is a complicated issue, and it isn't as easy as saying it's legal 
to break DRM as long as you don't share the results. IMHO, people need 
to read their purchase agreements and make their own decisions on what 
they're comfortable with.

Russ,

Do you use the windows or the Mac to convert your e-books? Are you still have 
my husband do it on the Mac using caliber. But it's in accessible to me, and 
since we got the Kindle app I quit doing it. However, if there were an

This answer below is correct, but there are fairly easy ways to remove DRM from 
books.  This is not illegal.  Of course, passing on the unprotected books to 
others is.

 

You can Google this, or you can write to me off list and I can give you some 
pointers.  I read Kindle books in my notetaker, or in Voice Dream Reader, or 
wherever, once I have taken the time to remove the DRM.

No.

Kindle, iBooks, and Nook books are DRM, Digital Rights Management, which means 
they can only be read with their own app.

Voice Dream Reader can only read non-DRM books.

No.

Kindle, iBooks, and Nook books are DRM, Digital Rights Management, which means 
they can only be read with their own app.

Voice Dream Reader can only read non-DRM books.

This answer below is correct, but there are fairly easy ways to remove DRM from 
books.  This is not illegal.  Of course, passing on the unprotected books to 
others is.

 

You can Google this, or you can write to me off list and I can give you some 
pointers.  I read Kindle books in my notetaker, or in Voice Dream Reader, or 
wherever, once I have taken the time to remove the DRM.

Have you read any other books successfully on your IPad?

I haven't read for a while but you have a few commands you can do.  If you 
slide your finger around the screen, you should get an idea what to do if you 
haven't read a book using Kindle before.  Otherwise someone who reads regularly 
can help on this one, or I'll get mine out and tell you.  Just don't want to

Re: Kindle book cannot be read using iOS Kindle app

2014-12-02 Thread Jane
The Kindle app can't read images. I understand there are some magazines that 
offer images of the pages, but you can read a text alternative instead. 
Sometimes I guess it can happen with books, where they just take a picture of 
the page. ' definitely ask for a refund.

All the books are supposed to be accessible with VoiceOver.  Unless this book 
that Howard got is all pictures, it should be readable, but isn't.  And for 
$51.99 it should do the dishes too, grin.

I hope he gets a refund or they make it accessible.

Hi,

If I remember right, there is a way to send feedback from within the Kindle

Anna

Re: Kindle book cannot be read using iOS Kindle app

2014-12-01 Thread Howard Dupuis
The book I bought is called "Plato's Rivalry with Medicine: A Struggle and 
its Dissolution," by Susan B. Levin. (The publisher is Oxford University 
Press.) When I open the book on my iPad using the Kindle app, all I hear 
is: "VoiceOver does not support this content." The Amazon page says 
text-to-speech is enabled for various Kindle devices. When I show my iPad 
to a sighted person, the text of the book is there, though I'd not know 
that. Thanks for all your responses.

 I purchased a new book -- published just this year by the Oxford

Re: Kindle book cannot be read using iOS Kindle app

2014-12-01 Thread Mary Otten
The book does not need to be text to speech enabled in order to read it on the 
Kindle app. I have some books where Amazon says TTS is not enabled, and they 
read fine. I have seen problems with the android Kindle app with some books I 
bought that turned out to read fine with the iOS app. I have no idea why that 
is. But this is the first time I've heard of a book that was not readable with 
the iOS app. Would love to know what the book title is.

Re: Kindle question.

2014-10-23 Thread Cheryl Homiak
I don't think you can do this from the iPhone Kindle app. I have an old Kindle 
keyboard and I can transfer files to the hard drive easily from that. I imagine 
that is also true of the current Kindle stand-alones but I don't know that for 
sure.

Cheryl

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper
thrown in the trash!
Then God gave me a new heart and life:
His joy for my despairing tears!
And now, every day:
"This I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord
never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness."
(Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV)

Re: Kindle question.

2014-10-23 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Maria,
If you want to literally transfer the file without benefit of a Kindle app, 
then I believe the answer is no. Kindle books are encrypted. I don't know of 
any way to get that off of the iPhone.
However, if you want to try to read the book in a Kindle application, then yes, 
you can do that on a PC with the Kindle application with accessibility plug-in. 
Access is very rudimentary compared to what you have on the iPhone. And the 
Kindle application for Mac is totally worthless, inaccessible.

Have you tried a different book? I have a Kindle book that contains sections at 
the ends of chapters which I can’t access with VoiceOver. I asked about it on 
this list a week or so ago, but the problem is specific to that book. 
Apparently, there are arrows to be clicked on, but VoiceOver can’t see them.

Re: Kindle Ap

2014-07-30 Thread Michael Feir
I very much enjoy reading books with the Kindle app. The table of
contents is my only slight gripe as you can't flick between chapters
and other titles. Instead, you have to feel around the screen until
you hear the title you want and then double-tap it to go there. You
can scroll between pages of a large table of contents. It's very
workable but not as intuitive as it might be. Other than that, I've
had absolutely no isues with reading and jumping around in books.

Re: Kindle Ap

2014-07-28 Thread Russ Kiehne

Perhaps the following article from AccessWorld will help:

Using VoiceOver with the Accessible Amazon iOS Kindle App
Janet Ingber
A free and accessible iOS version of the Kindle app from Amazon was 
released on May
1, 2013. This app gives people who are blind or visually impaired 
another option
for purchasing and listening to books and periodicals. Previous versions 
of this
app were not accessible with VoiceOver. This article will discuss 
installing the

app as well as purchasing and reading content.
Here is part of the Kindle description from the iTunes Store:
The Kindle app is optimized for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch, giving 
users the
ability to read Kindle books, newspapers, magazines, textbooks and PDFs 
on a beautiful,
easy-to-use interface. You'll have access to over 1,000,000 books in the 
Kindle Store
plus hundreds of newspapers and magazines. Amazon Whispersync 
automatically syncs
your last page read, bookmarks, notes, and highlights across devices 
(including Kindle),

so you can pick up your book where you left off on another device.
You can read the
entire description at the iTunes Store
.
Installation and Set-Up
In the iTunes App Store, type "Kindle" into the search box, and the 
first result
is the new Kindle app. The first time the app is launched you must enter 
the e-mail
address and password for your Amazon account, so you will need to have 
an account
before beginning the registration process. Prior to entering the 
information, there
will be a dimmed "Register this Kindle" button and an unlabeled button. 
Once the
e-mail address and password are entered, the "Register this Kindle" 
button becomes
active, and the unlabeled button disappears. When the new screen loads 
(and assuming
you haven't previously purchased anything from Amazon's Kindle store), 
VoiceOver

will say, "You have no items in the cloud."
On the bottom of the screen are four buttons: "Switch to Grid View," 
"Cloud," "Device,"
and "Settings." For easier reading leave the "Grid View" in its default 
setting.
Activating that button will cause items to be read as a grid instead of 
as a list.
If the button is activated, then the material will be presented in grid 
format, and
that same button will change to "List View." If the "Cloud" button is 
activated,
then all Kindle items will be displayed, including those that may be 
present on another
device. If the "Device" button is activated, only the items on that 
specific device

will be displayed.
The Settings Menu
In the Settings menu, the "Back" button is in the upper left, and the 
"Done" button
is in the upper right. The first heading is Library Sort Order. By 
default it is
set to "Recent," but the Library can also be sorted by author or title. 
Selection

is done via radio buttons.
Sync
The next item in the Settings menu is the "Sync" button. Any content 
purchased on
a device should automatically sync to any other supported device. If 
content isn't
synced, activate the button. To test this feature, I tried to sync my 
content on
the iPhone Kindle Library with my MacBook Air and PC running Windows XP 
and Window-Eyes
8. The Mac app was completely inaccessible. Sighted assistance was 
needed to register
the device, and accessibility didn't improve after that. I got a bit 
further with
the PC version. My books appeared on the screen, but when I opened the 
books, I couldn't

read them.
Registration
The name of the account holder will be listed, and a Kindle e-mail 
address will also
be shown. In my case it took the first part of my e-mail address and 
added "@kindle.com."
Use this address to send documents directly to the Kindle. Next is a 
button labeled
"Contact Us," which brings up a form for entering text. Following that 
is a button
labeled "Page Turn Animation," which is turned off by default. Next is a 
"Social
Networks" link. When activated it explains how to share your information 
and post
parts of books to your social networking Wall or Newsfeed. There are, 
then, links
for Facebook and Twitter. The final Settings option is a button labeled 
"Other."
When this button is activated, it brings up a list of options, including 
"About"

and "Terms of Use."
Library
The app's home screen displays content. To change which material is 
displayed, use
the button in the upper left. By default it's set to "All Items," but 
other options
are "Books" and "Newsstand." If there are items in any of the 
categories, they will
be listed. The button to go back to the main Libraries page is located 
in the top
left corner, but instead of saying "Back," it gives the name of the 
section currently
being displayed. For example, if the Books section is on the screen, the 
button will
say "Books." The "Done" button, which is used to exit the screen, is in 
the upper

right corner.
Purchasing and Downloading Content
It is not possible to purchase content directly from the iOS Kindle app. 
Your device
must be connected to a wireless or data network in order to transfer 
cont

Re: Kindle Ap

2014-07-28 Thread Teresa Cochran
Sometimes I use my husband's classic keyboard Kindle, but I find myself missing 
Braille all too soon. One great thing about the iOS app is that you can use 
Braille with it. The controls are a little unconventional, because you have to 
double-tap the text in the book to get into the menus then double-tap the menu 
button to get a second level of options, but this is very easy to deal with.

Re: Kindle Ap

2014-07-28 Thread Raggedy Ann
Nothing in particular other than reading books. Several people told me they had 
a difficult time reading with the Ap but had no problem with the stand-alone. 
Maybe those people weren't too sure of what they were doing. 

I just installed the ap on my phone and now I will get the books I need and go 
from there. Having another piece of equipment seems like a waste to me when the 
ap would work just as well.

  I'm not sure why you've heard conflicting reports. The Kindle app does indeed 
work and is accessible on the iPhone. If there's something you want to do with 
it that you're afraid won't work, maybe you need to be more specific about your 
concerns. I read lots and lots of books with mostly my braille display but also 
by starting scrolling and just listening but if there is something more 
complicated you want to do that is causing you to think you should get the 
actual Kindle, ask about that. I have one of the old Kindles - I think now it 
would be called a keyboard Kindle - and I hardly use it any more, but I realize 
the newer Kindle stand-alone machines may be more accessible.

  I’m not saying it’s not a good deal, but 10 titles a months is hardly 
unlimited. I wonder why companies use such misleading jargon.

  It's real and is official as of today.  It's $9.99 and covers over 600,00 
books plus a ton of audio titles; the iOS app will work with it although I've 
not had time to do any research on this.  According to what I've read on the I 
Love my Kindle blog, you can rent up to 10 titles a month.

2014-07-18 Thread Amy Billman
Agreed, Donna.
I had hoped they’d do that like Audible does. Even if they went to like their 
credits system or something where as you say, you’re actually buying the books, 
so that if you do cancel, you can reread them later.
In most cases, if I am paying for a book even in a circumstance like this, if 
it’s good enough I will want to reread in future.
 
And, of course some stuff like cookbooks (which that’s a lot of my Kindle 
content lately,) I’m hardly going to want to rent those. *smile* What’s the 
point?

Yes, I've heard about this service as well. $10 isn't to expensive in my 
opinion, to be able to read 10 books a month, that's $1 per book. The "rent" a 
book is the downfall to the service for me. I had much rather pay a monthly 
membership fee, get a big discount on an unlimited number of books. This way 
the book is mine to reread if I discontinue my monthly service. 
 
Just my opinion.

Yes, my husband got an email from Amazon about it. I haven't gotten one yet. I 
don't want to try from his email, because it looks like it's a promotional 
token linked to his account. I haven't had luck getting into the Kindle 
Unlimited page yet. I get a "service unavailable" error message. Maybe the 
kinks are still being worked out.

RE: Kindle Unlimited

2014-07-18 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I’m not saying it’s not a good deal, but 10 titles a months is hardly 
unlimited. I wonder why companies use such misleading jargon.

It's real and is official as of today.  It's $9.99 and covers over 600,00 books 
plus a ton of audio titles; the iOS app will work with it although I've not had 
time to do any research on this.  According to what I've read on the I Love my 
Kindle blog, you can rent up to 10 titles a month.

Hi jennifer. You can choose to search within a category such as the kindle 
store. It a combo box right on the amazon site. Select kindle store when you 
search for a kindle book and that's what you'll find.
To browse for things, go to the kindle store and then to kindle ebooks or 
kindle books. Once you get there, things are very well laid out.
Hope that helps.

RE: Kindle magazine subscriptions - do earlier issues go away when new issues are posted?

2014-05-07 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Not all magazines are available through NFB-Newsline.

How do you send articles to your mailbox? There used to be links associated 
with articles, but they went away 6 to 9 months ago, at least on my app. Did I 
unknowingly change a setting or something?

Thanks.

Hello All,

While I am almost certain the following question has been asked and answered at 
some point in the past, I could not locate it so I will ask:  Why would one 
choose to subscribe to Kindle magazines as opposed to using the NFB Newsline 
service?  Assuming one has access to Newsline and that the magazine is 
available on Newsline, of course.  For the record, I am a big fan of the Kindle 
iOS app.

I  absolutely adore the Newsline app and think it is amazing that they allow 
one to send unencrypted articles directly to email Inboxes.

Thank you,

I'm not sure about the magazines in Kindle.

However, I subscribe a few of them using Zinio and since I've paid for them, 
they stay in my library until I decide to trash them.

I don't see why the Kindle app would treat subscriptions any differently..

Re: Kindle/Audible Service Whispersync for Voice

2014-03-31 Thread MissWings

Hi Alan,

I can't testify as to how this works on syncing between the audio and 
Kindle versions, but I know this does work even if you only have the 
Kindle app on your phone, as that's my situation currently.  I try to 
listen to audio versions of books when they're available, so mainly I 
use Whisper Sync to get audio versions at lower costs than I would if 
I just bought the audio book itself.  I don't mind paying extra for 
the Kindle version, as I can have both versions for a lower price if 
I get them together, and in fact I've come across several Kindle 
books that were free, and then later found out about Whisper Sync, 
and so only had to pay a couple of dollars each for the audio versions.

At 06:58 PM 3/28/2014, you wrote:
I have an Audible subscription that runs me about $12.50 per book. 
Today, I was searching for a title that I could only find on Audible 
when I thought I'd check out whether the Kindle Store had it and the 
cost. I did find it in a Kindle version for $5.99 but was surprised 
that this title also contained the following in the description:




Whispersync for Voice



Now you can switch back and forth between reading the Kindle book 
and listening to the Audible audiobook. 
Learn 
more or 
scan 
your Kindle library to find matching professional narration for the 
Kindle books you already own.
It went on to say that the professional narration could be added for 
$4.49 after purchasing the Kindle version. This would give me both a 
Kindle and Audible version of the book for $10.48 which seems a very good deal.


I was wondering if anyone had tried this service and if it works 
with an iPhone running the Kindle app or if you have to have the 
Kindle hardware to use it. I'm also curious at how well the sync 
feature works between the Audible and Kindle versions.

Re: Kindle App

2014-02-26 Thread Sherrie
I think there is a link on the Kindle store Called Manage My Kindle.  I 
think you are supposed to be able to delete books from this screen but I 
could  not read the list of books with Jaws.
I might break down and get some sighted help since I have downloaded a lot 
of free books for my husband.

You can archive books but not delete them entirely. Those you archive will 
say not downloaded when you flick past them in your device library.
