I am using the compact voice. I will try with the premium voice and see if it 
changes anything. I never considered this possible variable when trouble 
shooting.

2012-05-12 Thread Damshe Thomas
The only way speech comes back without waiting is to restart the phone. On very 
rare occasions, after no more than ten seconds, which ever app I happen to be 
using closes, I am back at the home screen and speech is working. The change in 
speech rate didn't affect the frequency.

Ricardo,

good point, I'm also using the high quality premium voice.

which of course all ties into my point about speed.

those using higher speeds tend not to use the high quality premium voice
synth, as it does not scale as well.

so, you have a good point here.

The only way to test if a lower speed fixes it, is to reduce your speed.

I do not have the issue, never have and I have owned all three

the iPad, and have owned an iPhone 3GS, 4 and now the 4S.


So that's 6 iOS devices, and never had the issue, but, I have my

rate set to just 40%.


Does anyone with the speech stopping issue, have their synth rate set
at a

more moderate level say, 60% or less?


If we can find a user who has their synth speed at 60% or less, who
has

the issue, then I'll begin to consider it being a different cause of this
issue, but, the more I talk to folk about this, the more those who suffer it

That is, a tendency to be running your Voice Over synth up at 90% - 100%.

which of course all ties into my point about speed.

those using higher speeds tend not to use the high quality premium voice

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-10 Thread Kirsten Edmondson
So it's happened to me twice in 24 hours. I was about to email and agree but 
decided to slow speech first, only to discover it already at 50% instead of 
what I thought of as 65%. I reduxwd it to 40 but can no longer cope with that 
slow. I'm fairly certain I have hq American though being in uk Daniel might be 
hq Daniel by default. How do I check? 
I personally don't think that making the speed down for 48 hrs will be any use 
as its more sporadic than that. I'm also not sure that though it seems a long 
time that it is really as long as a minute or more.

Mario,

do you clear your app switcher at least once a day and power cycle at least 
once daily?

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-10 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
well this all goes to show that it could be what I say it is, we need a few 
control subjects who use the speed at 100% or at least more than 60%, and who 
have the issue, to reduce speed for say 48 hours or so and see if it occurred.

I use my device at 40%, last night I upped it to 100%, and used it like that 
for about an hour or so.

I rapidly swiped through news apps, switching to letter navigation etc, and 
swiping like mad.

once, and only once, I got Voice Over to hang for about 10 seconds, this has 
never, ever happened before, and the only change I've made is the speed of my 
synth.

I continued to swipe at my usual forotious rate. Now this is only one test, we 
need those of you who state you have the issue to drop your speed, just for a 
day or so, and see if the issue goes away.

Maybe others are just  slower with there devices?

I think it would be helpful to know if you are able to determine, did
the slower rate change the issue any, I.E. did the speech come back
any more quickly? Also, have you found any way that you use to regain
speech when it happens other than wait 60 to 90 seconds or longer?

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-09 Thread James Mannion
Neil,
I completely agree with you that finding what is causing the problem
should help the cause and it would be really nice to be able to
confirm that it is a speech rate issue. I keep my speech rate at 45%,
not because I do not want it faster, but because I can live with 45%
and have come to strongly believe that faster rates subject us to more
usability issues than just adjusting to a lower speed. I have limited
myself to 45% for that reason and choose not to get accustomed to a
higher speech rate on IOS for the reasons stated above and because it
is so much harder to accept a lower rate once you have gotten use to a
higher one. I do experience the issue, but so far it has not been to
near the extent that others describe in frequency and savarity. So far
mine does not happen all that frequently and so far has not been for
60 to 90 seconds on any regular occasion. Once it really seemed like a
long time, but I still don't think that long. 60 to 90 seconds is a
very long time when you are waiting to do something, especially when
interacting with an interface. I don't even think it takes the banking
machine tipically that long to process your transaction and spit out
your cash and that is a lengthy process.

sixty percent. Sixty percent didn't solve the issue so I tried fifty percent 
and have continued to encounter the problem. I went as far as reseting my phone

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-09 Thread Kevin Barry

I use my 4s at 100% speech rate.
The bug is still present and so far the only common  denominator I've 
noticed is it seems to rear its ugly head when I'm rapidly swiping.

Maybe others are just  slower with there devices?

At 04:45 PM 5/9/2012, you wrote:
just because the issue only began with iOS v5.0, this does not 
exclude it being related to the speed of the synth.


it maybe that previous coding of the OS allowed without issue the 
speed that some users like, but, that coding in iOS v5.0 does not.


I'm not saying that it is the speed issue, but, that it seems 
plausible, and without anyone who has the issue, declaring that they 
have the issue, with speed below 60% then we cannot rule it out.


more over, we know that the iOS device continues to operate 
normally, only the speech stops, leading me to consider it a synth 
specific issue.


the people who have the issue, seem to have the speed set high, were 
as, those who say they do not, seem to have it set at 50% or less.

2012-05-09 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
the issue is that for all creators of stuff, if only a small minority of your 
user base have an issue, and none of them are in your beta testing cycle, you 
rely on those who have the issue to demonstrate it even exists and that it is 
not, frankly, user operator error.

Regarding this bug or any other, I don't personally like having to do testing 
in order for a company to fix the problem unless I'm on their testing team. 
However, since we are a small minority, I guess part of me feels that whatever 
we can do to give Apple all the information they need may help in the end. I 
can't stand speech at lower speeds, but am willing to put up with it for a few 
hours to see if I can prove or disprove the assumption that slower speeds are 
not affected and higher speeds are.

Because I've been in beta testing situations before, and still am in certain 
things, this isn't new to me. Still, it's annoying.

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-09 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
Eric,

No one said, well at least, I certainly did not, that you had to reduce speed 
forever.

In tech support the hardest issues to resolve are those which seemingly have no 
reason nor rhyme.

Apple are likely powerless to fix this, until they know what is causing it.

If you read over my messages clearly, you'll see that I recommended reducing 
speed for 48 hours or so, if the issue persists then its not that, if though it 
resoles. bingo, you can then report to Apple accessibility, this is how you 
reproduce the issue, and this is how you fix it.

now they have something concrete to work with.

Its very, very highly likely that Apple accessibility folk will not be using 
their demo unit devices at anywhere near the speed some of you are, so they 
probably are thinking to themselves, no, no issue here. only a hand full of 
users have it, and we can see no pattern.

so, if you want it fixing, find the pattern and demonstrate how it happens and 
how to fix it.

just because the issue only began with iOS v5.0, this does not exclude it being 
related to the speed of the synth.

it maybe that previous coding of the OS allowed without issue the speed that 
some users like, but, that coding in iOS v5.0 does not.

I'm not saying that it is the speed issue, but, that it seems plausible, and 
without anyone who has the issue, declaring that they have the issue, with 
speed below 60% then we cannot rule it out.

more over, we know that the iOS device continues to operate normally, only the 
speech stops, leading me to consider it a synth specific issue.

the people who have the issue, seem to have the speed set high, were as, those 
who say they do not, seem to have it set at 50% or less.

RE: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-09 Thread Eric SS
Neil, I don't mean to be disrespectful, but what point is there in lowering
speech rate to test if that is the issue. If you have the problem, you know
it and knowing why you have it really does nothing.

If you can accept working with slower speech, I suppose that is a solution
of sorts, but it makes about as much sense as telling someone with car
troubles they will have to drive at half speed and all will be well.

I guess you could argue that half speed speech is better than an
intermittent no speech, but only for a very patient customer. It is no
solution at all for most customers and should not be to Apple, either. I
doubt it is. It just really bugs me that they will not even acknowledge
there is a problem and say it is on their list of things to fix. But, with
so little feedback, compared to what they got from thousands and thousands
of customers and hundreds of web writers and some real writers, too, and
they still would not cop to the antenna issue, I don't expect we will ever
hear anything on our little issue.

2012-05-09 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
well we've not been discussing that as a possible issue. The issue at hand is 
whether or not an iOS device without peripheral attached effectively stalls, in 
terms of Voice Over speech, for up to 60 - 90 seconds, as a result of, as I 
suspect, very high speech rates being employed.

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-09 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
Chris,

In fact the only thing I see that you all have in common, that is, those of you 
who have this Voice Over stop speaking bug, is that your synth speed is set 
very fast.

The only way to test if a lower speed fixes it, is to reduce your speed.

I do not have the issue, never have and I have owned all three versions of the 
iPad, and have owned an iPhone 3GS, 4 and now the 4S.

So that's 6 iOS devices, and never had the issue, but, I have my speech rate 
set to just 40%.

Does anyone with the speech stopping issue, have their synth rate set at a more 
moderate level say, 60% or less?

If we can find a user who has their synth speed at 60% or less, who has the 
issue, then I'll begin to consider it being a different cause of this issue, 
but, the more I talk to folk about this, the more those who suffer it seem to 
have in common.

That is, a tendency to be running your Voice Over synth up at 90% - 100%.

If it were in fact caused by something innocuous as the speech rate being

addressed either.

I personally have my speech rate set to one hundred percent. I think I would
go crazy trying to use my phone at half that speed for any length of time.
Maybe someone can go ahead and give it a try and see if that's really a
contributor, but I doubt it since so many of us have experienced this
particular bug under all sorts of circumstances and situations across
various iPhone and iPad models.

even if you clear the app switcher regularly, do you power cycle daily, I
mean turn it off and back on again?

I also would suggest turning down the speech rate temporarily.

 It appears that iOS 5.1.1 is out for iPhones, Touches and iPads for those 
who wish to give it a try. I remember running into some issues that didn't 
prevent me from updating to 5.1 on my phone, but did crash it the first time I 
tried downloading it. Gizmodo only mentions a few bug fixes so I don't know if 
there's anything accessibility related. Perhaps others can dig up the 
information.

It doesn't really sound like this release addressed much. I would not be
surprised if there are few or no fixes for anything accessibility.
They may have made a quick fix for the app launching on unlock since people
made such a huge deal out of that small avoidable not really a problem
issue, but I wish they would fix the speech locking up over that one. It is
really strange though that they put out this release to fix what appear to
be such minor issues and they let huge issues hang out there for 6 or 9
months until some planned release and at least claim to have addressed them.
Purely speculation here of course on all of this, but I am betting there was
some change in this release that Apple has some motivation to make and it is
not written anywhere.
Something like a jailbreak whole patched or something.

even if you clear the app switcher regularly, do you power cycle daily, I

I also would suggest turning down the speech rate temporarily.

one thing to try, and I appreciate that you'll not want to do this for

issue resolves.


A: speech rate no more than 60%,
clear your app switcher twice daily, with one of these clearings 
occurring in the evening, immediately followed by a power cycle.


It is my belief that the issue will go away, I'd be interested to see.

if it does, keep clearing the apps, and power cycling once a day after 
one of the app switcher clear outs, and slowly increase the speech rate, 
and I mean slowly, say 65% and upwards in 5% increments.

Eric,

Do you have your synth speed set to very fast, or quite slow, I believe 
the default is about 30% or perhaps 40% but not faster.


I keep mine around 50% but never higher.

I also clear the switcher daily and restart.

in your posting you give no reference to if you clear the switcher and 
restart your iOS device daily.


do you do both of these things and what rate do you have VO set to?

RE: iOS 5.1.1 is out Voiceover going silent bug

2012-05-08 Thread Cristobal
If it were in fact caused by something innocuous as the speech rate being
above fifty percent or so or some other variant such as the app switcher
having x number of apps in it or not turning the device off and on, that in
itself could and should be considered as a major bug that Apple hasn't
addressed either.

I personally have my speech rate set to one hundred percent. I think I would
go crazy trying to use my phone at half that speed for any length of time.
Maybe someone can go ahead and give it a try and see if that's really a
contributor, but I doubt it since so many of us have experienced this
particular bug under all sorts of circumstances and situations across
various iPhone and iPad models.

I never leave things in the app switcher anyway, so I think that that out. I'll

Danielle,

It would be my strong guess that it is a mixed issue primarily relating to 
screen reader synth speed, available processor at the time, RAM, apps running 
at the time etc.

one thing to try, and I appreciate that you'll not want to do this for long, 
but, humour me, try for 48 hours doing the below and seeing if the issue 
resolves.

A: speech rate no more than 60%,
clear your app switcher twice daily, with one of these clearings occurring in 
the evening, immediately followed by a power cycle.

It is my belief that the issue will go away, I'd be interested to see.

if it does, keep clearing the apps, and power cycling once a day after one of 
the app switcher clear outs, and slowly increase the speech rate, and I mean 
slowly, say 65% and upwards in 5% increments.

Eric,

Do you have your synth speed set to very fast, or quite slow, I believe 
the default is about 30% or perhaps 40% but not faster.


I keep mine around 50% but never higher.

I also clear the switcher daily and restart.

in your posting you give no reference to if you clear the switcher and 
restart your iOS device daily.


do you do both of these things and what rate do you have VO set to?

This has been going on since IOS5. I know I have discussed it at length

probably too much. Apple has never acknowledged the issue, although they 
did

once ask for clarification of what situations caused it.

Trust me, I am a very heavy user and fairly knowledgeable and the issue is
real and is not limited just to a few new occurrences on this list. I have
tested it under all situations I can come up with on a 4S and old ITouch,
with both quality voices and even alternate accents. I have restored both
devices on several occasions; complete restores and not merely from 
backup.

I have methodically added applications to the devices to find if maybe one
is causing the problem. None of these has revealed anything but 
randomness.


The only thing I can see that is more apt to trigger a lockup is quickly
scanning elements. I have found if I stop speech or wait until it has
finished speaking, I can reduce the occurrences, but even this does not

seems to be the magic time to allow it to right itself, but I count to 40

place in the middle of the New York Times once or twice per issue. Hence,
nursing the device to recover on its own is best.

I have had this locking up in nearly every application from those I have
purchased to native apps. Again, it seems to be most consistent when
skimming from element to element. They do not have to be paragraph length
clips, but may be dates in the calendar app.

I have presented all of this to Apple on many occasions and have begged
their assistance or at least some acknowledgement of the issue. As I said,
beyond requesting more information one time, I have never even been given 
so

much as a thank you for your inquiry.

The only reasons I can think some don't seem to be having this issue ever

like they used to say with Windows: If you have not crashed, you are not
using your computer enough. Well, there could be some Fan Children refusal
to believe anything could ever be amiss with one of the annointed's

Hello,

It definitely happens, and really looks like memory buffer overflow issues. VO 
remains running, but the voice disappears. If you have a braille display 
connected, you will find that the braille display continues running. My guess 
is that the problem is related to the HQ voices.

2012-05-08 Thread Eric SS
Hi Neil. I keep my speech rate at 65% most often, but I will very that from 60 
to 75%. Anything slower seems torturous.

I do go into the application switcher and clear it before I am going to do a 
lot of reading. That has not seemed to make a difference, however.

The one area I am lax is I do not restart my phone every day, not even every 
several days. But, I have not found that that will make a difference. 

I hope it does not sound as though I am rejecting all alternatives. I have just 
tried so many, and none of them have been successful. It is most maddening 
because the problem is intermittent.

All thanks!

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out

2012-05-08 Thread Neil Barnfather - TalkNav
I do not have that bug of silence for up to 90 seconds or so, very rarely does 
any of my iOS devices go quiet like that... and even when they do, its for no 
more than say 5 seconds max.

do you regularly, and I mean regularly, like every night, empty your app 
switcher, and restart your phone... I do this religiously every night, clear 
the switcher and restart the phone.

also do this on my iPad, perhaps you are experiencing something which is 
setting or app specific to your device.

For all the great accessibility Apple's done with the phone, this is a major
bug one would figure would be addressed by now in some fashion. Then again,
who knows, maybe it's just not that easy to fix. 

I recently got an iPad 2 and for the first week or so, I hadn't experienced
that issue and started getting all jazzed that maybe it was just an iPhone

It doesn't really sound like this release addressed much. I would not be
surprised if there are few or no fixes for anything accessibility.
They may have made a quick fix for the app launching on unlock since people
made such a huge deal out of that small avoidable not really a problem
issue, but I wish they would fix the speech locking up over that one. It is
really strange though that they put out this release to fix what appear to
be such minor issues and they let huge issues hang out there for 6 or 9
months until some planned release and at least claim to have addressed them.
Purely speculation here of course on all of this, but I am betting there was
some change in this release that Apple has some motivation to make and it is
not written anywhere.
Something like a jailbreak whole patched or something.

This is not an issue I have encountered. Have you determined a pattern? For 
example, have you found this issue occurs when using a certain app? Have you

tried (yes I know it's painful) reinstalling from scratch? Sometimes 
something does become corrupted or some software conflict has occurred that 
only seems to be resolved when starting from a complete restore back to 
"factory" settings.

Hi Jenifer and all,

Just because accessibility isn't mentioned in the summary of the update
doesn't necessarily mean no accessibility improvements will be included.
There may not be any, but there have certainly been times in the past where
there were some, but they weren't mentioned in the update What's New
summary.

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out

2012-05-07 Thread James Mannion
We are referring to the loss of speech from voiceover bug, not the
unlock bug. I completely agree that the unlock bug is so much of a
small issue if one could even really call it an issue. I have also
been quite frustrated what a huge deal people have made of the unlock
bug, making it sound like this is the most horrable thing we deal
with. Honestly, blowing the unlock bug up to that perportion is
rediculous!

Sometimes something does become corrupted or some software conflict has

It doesn't really sound like this release addressed much. I would not be
surprised if there are few or no fixes for anything accessibility.
They may have made a quick fix for the app launching on unlock since 
people

made such a huge deal out of that small avoidable not really a problem
issue, but I wish they would fix the speech locking up over that one. It 
is
really strange though that they put out this release to fix what appear 
to

be such minor issues and they let huge issues hang out there for 6 or 9
months until some planned release and at least claim to have addressed 
them.
Purely speculation here of course on all of this, but I am betting there 
was
some change in this release that Apple has some motivation to make and it 
is

not written anywhere.
Something like a jailbreak whole patched or something.

RE: iOS 5.1.1 is out

2012-05-07 Thread Cristobal
Pretty much everywhere. From swiping in a particular app or on one of the
homepages going from app to app or just tracing a finger around the screen.
It might not happen for a long time and it'll happen a couple of times
within a five minute span. There's really no rime or reason to it. I know
it's not something exclusive to my device as it'll occur on my iPad as well
and others have commented on this same exact behavior on this list. It's
been present in iOS 5.0.1 and the subsequent updates since then. I can't
speak to earlier versions as my first phone was the 4S running the 5.0.1 OS.

Never had this issue persay, however I will at time on my 4S get in to a
situation wherein voice over does not seem to keep up with my flicking or
swiping and I end up tapping in to the wrong app.

The speech locking up where Voiceover will just go silent for sixty to
ninety seconds at a time for no reason or solution other than either
restarting the phone or waiting out the sixty or ninety seconds for
Voiceover to come back.
For all the great accessibility Apple's done with the phone, this is a major
bug one would figure would be addressed by now in some fashion. Then again,
who knows, maybe it's just not that easy to fix. 

I recently got an iPad 2 and for the first week or so, I hadn't experienced
that issue and started getting all jazzed that maybe it was just an iPhone
thing, but of course, reality had to step in and and yesterday, I
experienced the Voiceover going silent bug twice in about an hour's time.

It doesn't really sound like this release addressed much. I would not be
surprised if there are few or no fixes for anything accessibility.
They may have made a quick fix for the app launching on unlock since people
made such a huge deal out of that small avoidable not really a problem
issue, but I wish they would fix the speech locking up over that one. It is
really strange though that they put out this release to fix what appear to
be such minor issues and they let huge issues hang out there for 6 or 9
months until some planned release and at least claim to have addressed them.
Purely speculation here of course on all of this, but I am betting there was

No, it is a bug, it happens to me all the time. It will especially happen if 
you are swiping through something very quickly. It's like it goes in to

Um, what speech locking up are you talking about? I don't have that issue.

It doesn't really sound like this release addressed much. I would not be
surprised if there are few or no fixes for anything accessibility.
They may have made a quick fix for the app launching on unlock since people
made such a huge deal out of that small avoidable not really a problem
issue, but I wish they would fix the speech locking up over that one. It is
really strange though that they put out this release to fix what appear to
be such minor issues and they let huge issues hang out there for 6 or 9
months until some planned release and at least claim to have addressed them.
Purely speculation here of course on all of this, but I am betting there was
some change in this release that Apple has some motivation to make and it is
not written anywhere.
Something like a jailbreak whole patched or something.

Re: iOS 5.1.1 is out

2012-05-07 Thread Wayne Merritt
For the curious,, below are the release notes that I found from the
Geek with Laptop site, along with the site's URL for iOS 5.1.1.

1. Improves reliability of using HDR option for photos taken using the
Lock Screen shortcut
2. Addresses bugs that could prevent the new iPad from switching
between 2G and 3G networks
3. Fixes bugs that affected AirPlay video playback in some circumstances
4. Improved reliability for syncing Safari bookmarks and Reading List
5. Fixes an issue where ‘Unable to purchase’ alert could be displayed
after successful purchase

Looks like they didn't fix much. The address I found for this information is:
http://www.geekwithlaptop.com/download-ios-5-1-1-firmware-for-iphone-ipad-and-ipod-touch

This site has download links and information of what versions of iOS
devices the update will work on, however if you have v5.0 on your iOS
device, then you will probably be able to update to 5.1.1.

Regards,
Wayne Merritt

Hi.
But is the licence window readable? Just before downloading the upgrade?
As for me, I didn't hear any single word spoken by VoiceOver, only its 
clicks.

It appears that iOS 5.1.1 is out for iPhones, Touches and iPads for those who 
wish to give it a try. I remember running into some issues that didn’t prevent 
me from updating to 5.1 on my phone, but did crash it the first time I tried 
downloading it. Gizmodo only mentions a few bug fixes so I don’t know if 
there’s anything accessibility related. Perhaps others can dig up the 
information.

RE: iOS 5.1.1 is out

2012-05-07 Thread Cristobal
I downloaded it this time with no issues. The one bug I was glad to see
addressed and I always encountered was that purchase prompt error every time
I downloaded an app about how x number of items were unable to be
downloaded. Other than that, I didn't notice anything on the list of fixes
that I had trouble with. I guess I'll keep an eye out per say for any
accessibility improvements/fixes.

Hi Everyone;

So far I haven't found any changes.
