It would be nice, if voice dream reader, could support .OGG files.  I
am glad though, that it will now support .M4B files.  I don't have a
lot of audio books in that format, but do have a couple things that
would be nice to not have to convert to mp3 format.

2024-02-03 Thread Richard Turner
If you only have one device, having syncing to iCloud enabled may go a long way 
to getting everything back if you delete the app and start over.

I forwarded your note to my contact at the Applause Group.  I hope he has a 
better suggestion.

 

Perhaps the update that should be out Monday or so will help.

 

How is your internet speed?

I don’t know if that may be a factor.

Hi, Richard,

 

 

I have almost 74 gigs free out of 256 gigs. Yes, I have both emptied the App 
Switcher and rebooted my phone. Nothing seems to make a difference. I'm almost 
tempted to uninstall and reinstall VDR and start over. I absolutely should not

Just because they are set to update automatically, doesn’t mean they always do, 
at least, not in a timely manner.

 

You may want to go to your purchase history in the app store and see if Voice 
Dream Reader shows Open or Update.

If Open, it is current.

Have you got the latest update? It came out a day or two ago, maybe three at the most. I can’t remember. That has definitely fixed my iPad problem, at least as of yesterday.

RE: Voicedream not downloading book share books.

2024-01-31 Thread Richard Turner
There is an update today that they think may fix this.

They have two engineers working on it.

Here is what the update says:

Fix bug when loading content. Custom margins for PDFs, support for more audio 
files and fix go to percentage 

 

The Fixed bug while loading content is the relevant one to this issue.

I hope it solves it for those dealing with this.

Of course, signing out and back in may also help.

It may well be because I have a big Voice Dream library. But if it says

download complete, which it always does, I feel like I should be able to go

into my library and see it’s there. Not unavailable. Why is it unavailable?

And why God‘s name, since I have iCloud Sync enabled on both of my devices,

why doesn’t that work? I don’t even open it on my phone anymore because

there’s so many books that I’ve downloaded to my iPad that I know absolutely

if I open my phone there’s going to be a massive problem. So I suppose I

should just not have my phone answering with iCloud anymore. But then what

do I do when I finally get a new phone  Probably next year? I just wish

these people would get into the guts of this thing and fix it.

RE: Voicedream not downloading book share books. Addendum

2024-01-29 Thread Richard Turner
I just downloaded a book on the iPad Mini 6 from Bookshare and it took well 
less than 1 minute to say download complete. 
I checked and it was available and also on my iPhone.

So, I cannot duplicate the issue at all.
I have only a little over 300 titles in my library.

Mary,
I'm really sorry you are having such headaches.  I took the liberty of 
forwarding yours and Kimberly's emails to my contact at Applause group.  
Frankly, they are uncovering a lot of bugs in the Voice Dream Reader app, but 
they are also finding that iOS 17 has brought out a lot of issues that could 
not have been foreseen.

Time will tell, but I have a feeling those of us who have been long time users 
will have to subscribe, though at a slightly lower rate before too many more 
months.  I hope they get the issue you and Kimberly are experiencing resolved 
before then.

Myself, I have not had that issue.  IN fact, last week I bought myself a 
refurbished iPad Mini 6.
When I set up Voice Dream Reader and elected to use iCloud, I was frankly 
shocked at how smoothly that went.  My phone is the 13 pro.  I have quite a few 
long audio books in mP3.  The longest is Barbara Streisand's tome that at 
normal speed I think is over 40 hours.
My entire library transferred and became available in a little less than an 
hour.

I have not added a book from Bookshare on the iPad since, but I have added a 
couple on the iPhone and they were available almost immediately.  

Who knows what is ultimately responsible for this.  It could be a range of 
things, like wi-Fi speed, device resources, and of course, the mood of the 
various Gremlins that like to interfere at times. 😊

I know this doesn't help.

I don’t download large audio files. I do have a few MP threes, but nothing like 
that has been downloaded by me in a very long time. So, these are books from 
bookshare. So I expect that when it says download complete, it’s there. So they 
need to fix it. I thought they had it fixed after an update a few months ago. 
But it didn’t last.

I have a very large voice dream library as well.  I don't usually have
any problems when stuff says download complete.  However, if these
files are large ones, like my audio dramas, even though I know the
file is completely downloaded, I have to wait a couple minutes or so,
for the file to kind of process and become available.  If I don't,
I'll hear unavailable and the name of my zipped file.  I'm talking
about audio dramas, that are 3 or more gigs in size.  Voice dream
reader is great.  I use it all the time.  Bookshare downloads work
very well, and having a great selection of text to speech voices is
very nice

why God‘s name, since I have iCloud Sync enabled on both of my devices, why

RE: Voicedream not downloading book share books.

2024-01-26 Thread Richard Turner
After reading your message, I opened voice Dream Reader, and selected a book 
from bookshare and it downloaded in less than a minute.

I would check your Bookshare settings and especially your internet connection.

Do you have lots of apps open on your device?

If so, close them out of the app switcher.

Hi, over the last week or so I have been noticing that every time I try to add 
a title to my book share library through Voice Dream Reeder I keep getting a 
continuous message that says “waiting“. I have closed down the app and reopened 
it again and still those books all just seem to be stuck there and it keeps 
saying waiting and they will not download. Any suggestions? Is anyone else 
experiencing this bug? Thanks in advance. This is very frustrating as I depend
