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

2016-11-19 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Unfortunately this is not strictly a Freedom Scientific problem, NVDA isn't 
doing a lot better with iTunes and while there are a few scripts out there 
which help a bit, there aren't any which make a huge difference. I have a 
feeling that Apple would have to make some pretty major changes so that 
companies like Freedom Scientific can get at the information and in turn do 
whatever is needed to make it as good as it can be.
The same applies to the iCloud.com website, I highly doubt Apple is 
implementing web accessibility guidelines/standards here since the site is more 
or less unuseable for somebody who needs to rely on a screenreader.

Sieghard

Hi Todd,

Why do you always feel insulted by everything people say. I am not getting on 
top of you and just as you I say whatever I want if it is relevant to the 
topic. I simply pointed out that the inaccessibility of iTunes is not only a 
Freedom Scientific problem and that they are not to blame alone.

And now I will say one more thing. From now on I will no longer reply to 
anything you post, I will not attempt to answer any questions you ask. 
Unfortunately I think you will find that your agressive and confrontational 
tone will result in many others doing the same. I know you have additional 
challenges beyond being blind, but that doesn't give you the right to yell at 
anything anybody says which you don't like. Now as you are so font of saying 
"that is it". 

Take care,
Sieghard

Hello everyone,
Thanks for the input.  I thought there might be some workarounds for some of 
the problems. It appears that accessibility with iTunes in windows has gotten 
worse over the years. I was just trying to see what was possible when using 
iTunes with windows 10 after all there is the need to sync data from the iPhone 
and iPad to one's computer from time to time I can remember when some of us 
upgraded to iOS 10. A lot of us simply connected our cables to our computers to 
download 
I was just trying to find out whether I could sync my  contacts and other 
material such as photos and notes from my phone when using iTunes in windows. I 
guess not. Thanks for all your help.

2016-11-19 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Victor,

Connect your phone, then go to your device and either to music, apps or tones, 
check to sync selected items (in music or tones) and then try to select artists 
or albums or tones or, in the case of apps, try to select apps to sync.
None of this works any more.
Furthermore, I like to set my view to Songs and then turn on the column browser 
so I can select a particular genre, artist or album. Jaws does not read 
anything in All three of these lists (genre, artist and album). OK, let’s say 
on my new laptop it doesn’t, on my old one it seemed to sometimes work, but it 
would always say “L1” or something like that along with whatever it read.
In a way I don’t care too much about it any more since now that I have Apple 
Music I typically don’t sync my entire music library to my phone any more, apps 
I can download from the App Store and in a pinch I can manage my tones 
manually. I can still select to sync all tones easily enough so my work-around 
is to have one folder with all my ringtones and this folder I don’t add to my 
iTunes library. I then have another folder and all tones in this folder I add 
to my library and thn I simply sync all tones. If I want to get rid of some I 
just go to the tones library in iTunes and delete the ones I no longer want and 
then resync. If I want to add tones I copy them into this folder, add it to the 
library again and then rsync.

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

Take care,
Sieghard

No problem, doing the usual phone/iOS maintenance stuff like updating/restoring 
via iTunes or doing regular or encrypted backups is no problem. The thing I 
miss the most is easy management of tones in iTunes. I used to be able to 
simply arrow down my list of tones and press the spacebar to check or uncheck 
the ones I wanted and then sync, the same was true for apps at one point.

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

2016-11-19 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Denise,  

You ask an excellent question and you have received some very good advice.  

I would like to offer another suggestion that you may find useful.  

If you use Microsoft Outlook on your new computer, you may wish to install the 
iCloud Control Panel.  This simple tool is completely accessible with screen 
readers and will allow you to sync/access your iCloud data such as Contacts, 
Appointments, Notes, etc via Outlook.  

This is the primary way I keep all of my iCloud data in sync across all of my 
Windows, Macs, and iOS/Android devices.  

Installing the iCloud control panel is easy and Apple keeps it up-to-date for 
all necessary versions of Windows including Windows 7.x and 8.x..  

Another quick and easy way to access your iCloud data on your PC is to use 
iCloud.com.  Depending upon your screen/reader of choice, your mileage may vary 
but I think it definitely worth a try to access iCloud via your web browser and 
see what happens.  

Explore all the options and discover what is right for you.

As a Windows user, I value the fact that Apple continues to maintain a definite 
bridge between iCloud on both Windows and Mac.  

Mark

Hi Victor,

 

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

None of this works any more.

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

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

 

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

 

Take care,

Sieghard

No problem, doing the usual phone/iOS maintenance stuff like updating/restoring 
via iTunes or doing regular or encrypted backups is no problem. The thing I 
miss the most is easy management of tones in iTunes. I used to be able to 
simply arrow down my list of tones and press the spacebar to check or uncheck 
the ones I wanted and then sync, the same was true for apps at one point.

Hi Debbie,

I did find that the column browser list views in the latest version of iTunes 
with Jaws will read if you refresh the screen with Jawsk Key+Escape. You may 
have to do this from time to time, but this is a work-around which at least I 
find allows me to use the column browser and to select a genre, artist or 
album. The song list which for me has over 4,000 songs for some reason seems to 
always read fine.
The library app section also works OK in this release, you can arrow left and 
right and up and down to see the apps, either check “Updates” to see only apps 
that have updates or all apps, but again with the occasional screen refresh it 
works and you can tab to the Update button for a specific app, read the Whats 
New section or tab to Update aAll. Once updates are in progress whether they 
are app updates or an iOS download you can go to the search edit box with 
Control+F and tab I think twice to come to the Activity Popover or whatever 
it’s called. Activate it with the spacebar or enter, tab once and then down 
arrow to see the download progress, again Jaws Key +Escape (screen refresh) is 
your friend here.
The library’s tone section reads fine for me, I can easily arrow down through 
all my tones and play them.
Movies and TV Shows in the library is also OK and I don’t use books, audio 
books or Podcasts with iTunes so can’t comment on those.

Objectively it’s not all that bad if they would somehow restore the ability to 
easily select apps, tones and music by artist, album or individual song t sync 
and if they fixed the iTunes file transfer section.

Sieghard

Hi Victor,

Connect your phone, then go to your device and either to music, apps or tones, 
check to sync selected items (in music or tones) and then try to select artists 
or albums or tones or, in the case of apps, try to select apps to sync.
None of this works any more.
Furthermore, I like to set my view to Songs and then turn on the column browser 
so I can select a particular genre, artist or album. Jaws does not read 
anything in All three of these lists (genre, artist and album). OK, let’s say 
on my new laptop it doesn’t, on my old one it seemed to sometimes work, but it 
would always say “L1” or something like that along with whatever it read.
In a way I don’t care too much about it any more since now that I have Apple 
Music I typically don’t sync my entire music library to my phone any more, apps 
I can download from the App Store and in a pinch I can manage my tones 
manually. I can still select to sync all tones easily enough so my work-around 
is to have one folder with all my ringtones and this folder I don’t add to my 
iTunes library. I then have another folder and all tones in this folder I add 
to my library and thn I simply sync all tones. If I want to get rid of some I 
just go to the tones library in iTunes and delete the ones I no longer want and 
then resync. If I want to add tones I copy them into this folder, add it to the 
library again and then rsync.

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

Take care,
Sieghard

Hello everyone,
Thanks for the input.  I thought there might be some workarounds for some of 
the problems. It appears that accessibility with iTunes in windows has gotten 
worse over the years. I was just trying to see what was possible when using 
iTunes with windows 10 after all there is the need to sync data from the iPhone 
and iPad to one's computer from time to time I can remember when some of us 
upgraded to iOS 10. A lot of us simply connected our cables to our computers to 
download I was just trying to find out whether I could sync my  contacts and 
other material such as photos and notes from my phone when using iTunes in 
windows. I guess not. Thanks for all your help.

Syncing tones works the same as syncing music. the real problem with syncingg 
tones is that iTunes also wants to update your music and this was happening six 
years ago. I do agree that I would truely prefer if they treated apps like they 
did during the early days of itunes 11.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for the input.  I thought there might be some workarounds for some of 
the problems. It appears that accessibility with iTunes in windows has 
gotten worse over the years. I was just trying to see what was possible when 
using iTunes with windows 10 after all there is the need to sync data from 
the iPhone and iPad to one's computer from time to time I can remember when 
some of us upgraded to iOS 10. A lot of us simply connected our cables to 
our computers to download
I was just trying to find out whether I could sync my  contacts and other 
material such as photos and notes from my phone when using iTunes in 
windows. I guess not. Thanks for all your help.

The same applies to the iCloud.com website, I highly doubt Apple is

more or less unuseable for somebody who needs to rely on a screenreader.

Denise,

If you feel strong enough to have what you want be done, then, suggest you 
contact Freedom Scientific on this one.

That is it.  Please watch out your language.  You used a bad word here.  Rip it

Good morning everyone… In order for peoples voices to be heard regarding 
accessibility of iTunes, it is my opinion, that both companies need to be 
contacted. You can even send the same email to both if you'd like…
The address to contact VFO Formally freedom scientific, is: 
suggesti...@vfo-group.com
The address to contact Apple is:
accessibil...@apple.com
The person that mentioned that Apple needs to make the changes first, is 
correct. 
Take care, and have a great day!

It would be interesting to know if the BlindTunes scripts make selecting apps

Hello everyone,
Thanks for the input.  I thought there might be some workarounds for 
some of the problems. It appears that accessibility with iTunes in 
windows has gotten worse over the years. I was just trying to see what 
was possible when using iTunes with windows 10 after all there is the 
need to sync data from the iPhone and iPad to one's computer from time 
to time I can remember when some of us upgraded to iOS 10. A lot of us 
simply connected our cables to our computers to download
I was just trying to find out whether I could sync my  contacts and 
other material such as photos and notes from my phone when using 
iTunes in windows. I guess not. Thanks for all your help.

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

2016-11-21 Thread Thom Spittle
Hi Listers,
I have been in contact with the developers of a windows program called waltr2.
Their site is 
http://www.softorino.com
It will sync music, tones, documents and audio books to your iDevice without 
the need for iTunes. It works very well and the program is accessible, for the 
most part. You just connect your iDevice to the computer and launch waltr2. You 
see your device, then tab once more and open the familiar windows dialog box 
for choosing items. I put all of what I wanted to transfer in one folder and 
selected all. It puts the items where they should go on your iDevice. 
It costs $39.95, and their tech support is great.
There is a 24 hour full trial.
I have suggested a way to import a playlist feature.
If you import movies, it will convert the file (AVI, MKV, and others) to MP4 
and transfer to your iDevice. Just go to videos and there it is.

I wish apple would fix iTunes. I have called them months ago and they said that 
they will look into it. The blind customer service rep had no problems on his 
mac. Lol.

Go figure.

If you have any questions about waltr2, just let me know.

Waltr2? For Windows? That's news to me. I thought it was *only* for the mac. 
Thanks for sharing. ANd no, that blind Apple representative wouldn't have 
problems with iTunes on his or her mac, because it is 100% accessible on there, 
and it will be because of their own screen reader VoiceOver. Lol! But that's no

Hi Thom,

This interests me greatly and I'll be looking at it more closely as soon as I 
can. What are you saying  by your comment that it works wel, for the most part? 
What doesn't work properly and is the software provider going to fix it any 
time soon?

It seems that, even if we don't get a good version of iTunares we're probably 
going to see some alternatives and that can't be a bad thing. Personally, I 
just don't want to bother with iTunes any more because, as soon as you get just 
a little bit used to a new version with all the things that do and do not work, 
it's changed again! I certainly want to transfer to and from my phone. By the 
way, can you save to the program as well as put music etc into your phone?

I'll just have to look at it now, wont i!

I may also look at the other program menbbned in this thread, time permitting!

Anyway, I'll look forward to any further comments you may be able to make and 
will be pleased to get in touch with you once I've purchased.

I heard that blindTunes  really went up in price. Does anyone have any up to 
date information?

It would be interesting to know if the BlindTunes scripts make selecting 
apps and tones for syncing possible. I use Leasey Advanced and there are a 
few things in Leasey which help a bit with iTunes, but nothing that goes 
that deep.

I'm a bit of a Johnny-come-lately on this thread, but has anyone mentioned 
the BlindTunes scripts? I haven't used iTunes in ages, but I used these 
scripts with a fair degree of success when I did use the program. I've since 
changed computers and simply haven't gotten around to putting iTunes on it, 
no need.

Waltr2? For Windows? That's news to me. I thought it was *only* for the mac. 
Thanks for sharing. ANd no, that blind Apple representative wouldn't have 
problems with iTunes on his or her mac, because it is 100% accessible on 
there, and it will be because of their own screen reader VoiceOver. Lol! But 
that's no excuse to not make it 100% accessible on Windows.

It will sync music, tones, documents and audio books to your iDevice

It costs $39.95, and their tech support is great.
There is a 24 hour full trial.
I have suggested a way to import a playlist feature.
If you import movies, it will convert the file (AVI, MKV, and others) to 
MP4 and transfer to your iDevice. Just go to videos and there it is.


I wish apple would fix iTunes. I have called them months ago and they said

I don't think the interface is very good with jaws at all.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for the input.  I thought there might be some workarounds for some 
of the problems. It appears that accessibility with iTunes in windows has 
gotten worse over the years. I was just trying to see what was possible 
when using iTunes with windows 10 after all there is the need to sync 
data from the iPhone and iPad to one's computer from time to time I can 
remember when some of us upgraded to iOS 10. A lot of us simply connected 
our cables to our computers to download
I was just trying to find out whether I could sync my  contacts and other 
material such as photos and notes from my phone when using iTunes in 
windows. I guess not. Thanks for all your help.

is more or less unuseable for somebody who needs to rely on a

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

2016-11-22 Thread englishrider91
I was just on the phone with Apple Accessibility yesterday to talk with them 
about the problems for screen reader users when trying to sync music to an 
iDevice with the sync selected artists, albums, and playlists method. The issue 
is that no screen reader I've tried (the latest version of NVDA, JAWS 17, and 
even Narrator) on my Windows 10 machine will read anything in these lists. I 
haven't yet tried (I think it was Marc's suggestion) of using the refresh 
screen feature of JAWS to try to get things reading with it. NVDA's text and 
object review commands don't make it possible to read anything, either. The 
reason I haven't yet tried JAWS 18 is that I only recently received my SMA 
update to version 18, and I haven't yet had a chance to install it. I'll report 
back with more news when I've installed JAWS 18 and tried the screen refresh 
command. By the way, I did all the tests of the screen readers mentioned above 
when the rep was on the phone with me. He said that the issue was with 
Microsoft. I specifically asked him if anything had changed in the latest 
versions of iTunes 12 in terms of the way they programed those lists (after 
all, the lists of the column browser work fine in the main music library) and 
he said that as far as he knew, nothing had changed except the way things were 
arranged in the program, not the underlying structure of the way things were 
made in the program,. I told him it'd be interesting to see if blind users of 
the latest iTunes and Windows 7 were haveing the same issues. A friend of mine 
is running Windows 8 or 8.1. I'll have to check if she's having the same issues 
I'm having. She's also running NVDA. I want to see if this is really a 
Microsoft issues with not presenting things well in Windows 10 to any screen 
readers' or if the issue is with iTunes.

Lol the Apple Accessibility rep had the idea that all Windows screen readers 
were rather limited, and could only perform the "basics," as he put it. I 
couldn't let that slide, and set him straight on that. I must say, he was 
rather surprised. I wonder if that was just his Mac bias or Apple propaganda 
talking. Either way, he needed to know that not only were Windows screen 
readers very capable, but that I was a capable user of two of them, so that he 
knew I wasn't just spouting Windows screen readers are better than VoiceOver on 
Mac.

Anyway, just thought I'd tell you all about the issues I'm having, and that I 
spoke to Apple about them, and that I'm going to do some testing. It'd be 
really useful if people running Windows 7 and the latest version of iTunes 12 
could see if they're having the same issues I am' so I i can keep a useful 
dialogue going with Apple, and possibly start one with Microsoft. Sorry if any 
of this has been a bit nonsensicle; it's rather early here, and I'm not 
propperly awake yet. I just wanted to get this in before I forgot any of it.


Thanks,
Ari

Hello Ari,

Very well done, to demonstrate all these issues with multiple screen readers 
and educate the Apple Accessibility representative! It would be very 
interesting to know whether Windows 7 users are having the same problems. I 
find it hard to believe that the problem is completely due to changes in 
Windows because some parts of iTunes are fully accessible in Windows 10, while 
others are not. But the better defined the problem is, the more likely it is 
that someone will try to solve it.

Best,
Anna

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

2016-11-22 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I installed iTunes on one of my Windows 7 desktops at work today, but I forgot 
to bring a Lightning cable so I couldn't connect my phone. However, just from 
looking at the library section, Windows 7 with Jaws 18 and the latest version 
of iTunes behaves exactly the same in the column browser list views as that 
combination does with Windows 10, I still have to do the screen refresh for 
Jaws to read any of the content in the genre, artist and album list views and 
Jaws still says something "Description L1" with each item. My guess is that I 
will have no more success with a phone connected when it comes to transferring 
selected ringtones or apps and whoever that guy at Apple was who said it was 
because of Windows he just didn't know what he was talking about. As a "loyal" 
Apple employee he probably just didn't want to say that Apple could possibly 
not be perfect. I really think 500 or 600 list members should al phoen Apple 
Accessibility and ask why iTunes on a PC is so horrible and ask to have this 
fixed, maybe then Apple would take note. Preferably everybody should make a 
habit out of it and call and ask how this was coming once a month.

I was just on the phone with Apple Accessibility yesterday to talk with them 
about the problems for screen reader users when trying to sync music to an 
iDevice with the sync selected artists, albums, and playlists method. The 
issue is that no screen reader I've tried (the latest version of NVDA, JAWS 
17, and even Narrator) on my Windows 10 machine will read anything in these 
lists. I haven't yet tried (I think it was Marc's suggestion) of using the 
refresh screen feature of JAWS to try to get things reading with it. NVDA's 
text and object review commands don't make it possible to read anything, 
either. The reason I haven't yet tried JAWS 18 is that I only recently 
received my SMA update to version 18, and I haven't yet had a chance to 
install it. I'll report back with more news when I've installed JAWS 18 and 
tried the screen refresh command. By the way, I did all the tests of the 
screen readers mentioned above when the rep was on the phone with me. He 
said that the issue was with Microsoft. I specifically asked him if anything 
had changed in the latest versions of iTunes 12 in terms of the way they 
programed those lists (after all, the lists of the column browser work fine 
in the main music library) and he said that as far as he knew, nothing had 
changed except the way things were arranged in the program, not the 
underlying structure of the way things were made in the program,. I told him 
it'd be interesting to see if blind users of the latest iTunes and Windows 7 
were haveing the same issues. A friend of mine is running Windows 8 or 8.1. 
I'll have to check if she's having the same issues I'm having. She's also 
running NVDA. I want to see if this is really a Microsoft issues with not 
presenting things well in Windows 10 to any screen readers' or if the issue 
is with iTunes.


Lol the Apple Accessibility rep had the idea that all Windows screen readers 
were rather limited, and could only perform the "basics," as he put it. I 
couldn't let that slide, and set him straight on that. I must say, he was 
rather surprised. I wonder if that was just his Mac bias or Apple propaganda 
talking. Either way, he needed to know that not only were Windows screen 
readers very capable, but that I was a capable user of two of them, so that 
he knew I wasn't just spouting Windows screen readers are better than 
VoiceOver on Mac.


Anyway, just thought I'd tell you all about the issues I'm having, and that 
I spoke to Apple about them, and that I'm going to do some testing. It'd be 
really useful if people running Windows 7 and the latest version of iTunes 
12 could see if they're having the same issues I am' so I i can keep a 
useful dialogue going with Apple, and possibly start one with Microsoft. 
Sorry if any of this has been a bit nonsensicle; it's rather early here, and 
I'm not propperly awake yet. I just wanted to get this in before I forgot 
any of it.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for the input.  I thought there might be some workarounds for 
some of the problems. It appears that accessibility with iTunes in 
windows has gotten worse over the years. I was just trying to see what 
was possible when using iTunes with windows 10 after all there is the 
need to sync data from the iPhone and iPad to one's computer from time 
to time I can remember when some of us upgraded to iOS 10. A lot of us

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

2016-11-23 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Ari,

I would beg to differ with respect to how well Jaws is reading the content of 
the column browser lists. I used to be able to arrow down and it would read 
perfectly, now I have to frequently use the screen refresh command (it was me 
who mentioned it) and even then it says "L1" after each genre or artist or 
album Jaws reads. I also think the guy who spoke to has probably very little 
information is to what underlying changes the iTunes team may have made and 
obviously he is clueless when it comes to Windows screenreaders, Jaws was doing 
a good job with Windows 95, 98 and 98SE when there was very basic Mac 
accessibility and since 2000 or 2001 when Windows XP came out and until Mac 
released this current form of Voiceover there was no accessibility of the Mac.

Anyhow, I am using Jaws 18 and on my laptop I have Windows 10 and the latest 
version of iTunes and there is no improvement as far as I can tell when 
compared to how this worked with Jaws 17.
I also installed iTunes on one of my desktop computers at my work which is 
still on Windows 7. I am also using Jaws 18 and the issues are identical, the 
column browser needs to be refreshed a lot and neither apps nor tones are read 
by Jaws when I connect my iPhone. Since this worked perfectly with iTunes 11 it 
is clear that the Apple guy you spoke with really is clueless and he just said 
that it was because of Windows because he is probably told not to say it was 
because of Apple. There simply is no excuse for this and I'd love to have a 
chance to talk to Tim Cook, quote him on some of Apple's wonderful 
accessibility propaganda especially from their recent event and then ask him 
how he explains the incredible oversight and lack of accessibility with two 
products which have been around for many years, iTunes and iCloud.com. I also 
would like to hear him justify how they are sending out links to surveys which 
are completely inaccessible... really, a survey? How hard can it be to make it 
accessible, I get others all the time where the checkboxes or radio buttons and 
so on are perfectly accessible.

Sieghard

Hey, Sieghard,


I had a little bit of the same issue you're talking about with JAWS in the main 
music library, but NVDA didn't have this issue. This was with JAWS 17, as I 
said, and I'll test with JAWS 18 as soon as possible. I tried the JAWS screen 
refresh keystroak in the iPhone music section, with the sync selected artists, 
albums and playlists setting, and still nothing would read. This is super 
frustrating. If you tested the latest version of iTunes 12 with Windows 7, and 
we're running into similar issues, even in the main music section, where he 
wasn't having as much trouble, it doesn't seem like a Windows 10 problem, at 
least not totally. When you get a chance, can you try things with the iPhone 
music section when your iPhone is connected to that Windows 7 computer? I'd 
like to see if you're getting the same results as I was in that section of 
iTunes with jaws, NVDA, and Narrator. Obviously, you're probably not going to 
get any kind of good results with Narrator on Windows 7, but if you can try it 
with NVDA and JAWS on Windows 7, that be great. I want to see if we're having 
the same results or not. I want to try to pin this down, and start speaking to 
whoever turns out to be responsible for things being this crappy.


Thanks,

Hi Ari,

As I explained in my previous email, I have already tried the Windows 7 + Jaws 
18 combination with the latest iTunes and my phone connected. If I go to apps 
and tones I get the exact same thing as I do with Windows 10 + Jaws 18. The 
apps read, but I can't check them and the tones just say that I'm in the Tones 
treeview and Jaws reads zip.

Unfortunately I'm not an NVDA user. I know it has some similarities with Jaws, 
but I'm just not familiar enough with it to quickly install it and test this 
and I just don't have the time right now to spend time on it beyond what I 
could easily and quickly do.

Apple claiming this is a Windows 10 issue is ridiculous, the behaviour in 
Windows 7 is identical and they just have to get their act together and talk to 
Freedom Scientific to see what they each have to do to make this better.

frustrating. If you tested the latest version of iTunes 12 with Windows 7, and 
we're running into similar issues, even in the main music section, where he 
wasn't having as much trouble, it doesn't seem like a Windows 10 problem, at 
least not totally. When you get a chance, can you try things with the iPhone 
music section when your iPhone is connected to that Windows 7 computer? I'd 
like to see if you're getting the same results as I was in that section of 
iTunes with jaws, NVDA, and Narrator. Obviously, you're probably not going to 
get any kind of good results with Narrator on Windows 7, but if you can try it 
with NVDA and JAWS on Windows 7, that be great. I want to see if we're having 
the same results or not. I want to try to pin this down, and start speaking to 
whoever turns out to be responsible for things being this crappy.


Thanks,
Ari

Oh, owch! That is definitely a problem, then. I'll let Apple know that other 
screen reader users are having the same problems I've been having. I'll also 
let them know that these issues aren't a Windows 10-specific thing, either. 
This is so frustrating.,! iTunes used to be usable, at least. Frustrating at 
times, but definitely usable! Now not only is file sharing wonky, but syncing 
selected music and ringtones is, as well. Apple really needs to fix things! I 
sincerely hope the next version of iTunes fixes all the problems Windows screen 
reader users have been having!


Thanks,
Ari

Dear Mark,
I have downloaded and installed the i-cloud controller. I am not sure that 
icloud.com  website works very well with speech  as I am having a little 
difficulty entering the required code with JAWS.  In any case, can you give me 
some idea how the controller is suppose to work? I'm just trying to retrieve my 
contacts, and that does not appear to be happening right now. Thanks.
BY the way,  I am using speech  only.

Hello Denise,  

You ask an excellent question and you have received some very good advice.  

I would like to offer another suggestion that you may find useful.  

If you use Microsoft Outlook on your new computer, you may wish to install the 
iCloud Control Panel.  This simple tool is completely accessible with screen 
readers and will allow you to sync/access your iCloud data such as Contacts, 
Appointments, Notes, etc via Outlook.  

This is the primary way I keep all of my iCloud data in sync across all of my 
Windows, Macs, and iOS/Android devices.  

Installing the iCloud control panel is easy and Apple keeps it up-to-date for 
all necessary versions of Windows including Windows 7.x and 8.x..  

Another quick and easy way to access your iCloud data on your PC is to use 
iCloud.com.  Depending upon your screen/reader of choice, your mileage may vary 
but I think it definitely worth a try to access iCloud via your web browser and 
see what happens.  

Explore all the options and discover what is right for you.

As a Windows user, I value the fact that Apple continues to maintain a definite 
bridge between iCloud on both Windows and Mac.  

Mark
