hi,joseph,
That was an excellent mini-tutorial. I was thinking along the same lines, but
my memory of the steps was quite a bit hazier than that. Thanks for that. It
will be a good future reference.

Thank you Teresa! I think I should also remind some of the new users of
iTunes that the tutorial was meant to be used when "any" file is to be moved
from one's iOS device to a desktop, or from one's computer to their iOS
device.
It was not just for files associated with OoTunes. .

AS far as I know, you can't download with Safari.
There are alternate web browsers that have a download component.

depending on what you want to do.
On Jun 28, 2014, at 11:02 AM, J
No, there really isn't when first setting up. However, you can set up VO in
iTunes. Unfortunately, it's assumed at setup that you already know how to use
VO. Maybe that would be a good suggestion for Apple Accessibility.

Yes, there certainly is. find the number you want to add, then flick right. You

The iPhone will route the call to whichever device you use to accept it. For

you answer the call on the iPhone by using a 2-finger double tap or by double

Yes, this does explain a lot. I thought it was yet one more problem with the
new Bluez, as I have been far from impressed with them overall. This makes so
much more sense,though, and explains why the call would be routed seemingly
