Hi all, According to the rumours, Apple will be removing touch ID from all the new devices. It is important to note: Apple has been on a quest to remove all buttons, switches, and so forth for several years, so I expect these rumours are accurate. I do not remember the spelling of the Chinese

Donna, I couldn't agree with you more. I’m hoping that Apple will, in fact, maintain some form of Touch ID. I just can't imagine that they would completely eliminate such a trusted form of ID verification. Of course, I said the same thing about removing the headphone jack and we all know h

You know, I don't know about anyone else, but I'm feeling frustrated with Apple. I was really hoping that the new iPhone models would include an option for a faster iPhone 8. Face ID sucks. It takes significantly longer to unlock your phone, and is much more finicky. I'm feeling resentful th

I believe I have a contract with AT&T. That contract allows me to trade my phone up for a nominal price after 12 months. That 12 months has now elapsed. But I suspect that there is probably still some benefit in the trade up policy. So, I’ll stay where I am. Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 31, 2

Use VO j to jump to the table of tasks. Then when you select a task, interact with it to find the button and VO space on it to run it. I only looked at one of them to see how it works so other tasks may require a different method to run it. From E.T.'s Keyboard... ancient.ali...@icloud.c
