Re: 9.3 so far

Hi Carol, Yes, you do the swipe from within the app. If you have your phone in portrait orientation, I find it works well to have my hand turned so my four fingers are in a row, straight up the screen, parallel to the long sides of the phone. Then, I flick all of them together in the same direc

Re: How do you force restore an iPad after a failed upgrade?

Hi Chris, This is how you put an iPhone in DFU mode, which is what I think you're asking for. I assume the process is the same on an iPad. Connect the iPad to your computer. Hold down the Home and Power buttons for 10 seconds. Then release the Power button, but keep holding down the Home button

Re: Mega discovery in 9.3

Hi Daniel, did you and your roommate try a regular swipe, or swiping with two or three fingers to switch apps? My guess is that the feature is available to everyone but only requires four fingers if VoiceOVer is running. Best, Anna > On Mar 24, 2016, at 9:53 AM, Daniel Miller wrote: > > Hi

Re: IPhone Calendar Again

Hi Fazil, There should be an Add button in the upper right corner of your screen when you are creating an appointment. I just opened the Add Appointment screen, and that's where it is on my phone. In case it matters, my phone is in portrait orientation. Best, Anna > On Mar 24, 2016, at 11:3

Re: still not able to get cookies

Hi, Remove Safari from the app switcher. Then open Safari Settings and try setting cookies to a different setting, backing out of Safari Settings, then coming back in and setting it to Allow from Websites I visit. Then reopen Safari and try again. Best, Anna > On Mar 24, 2016, at 5:49 PM,

Re: Wifi calling

Hi, I don't think it shows in the status bar, but it's worth having on if you spend time in places with good Wi-Fi and bad cellular connections. The phone switches to Wi-Fi when the cellular connection is bad without your having to do anything. Best, Anna > On Mar 25, 2016, at 12:15 AM, cand

Re: i-books

Hi Paul, If you're in a book, press the Library button in the upper left corner. Choose Select, and double-tap any book you want to delete. Now choose the Delete button near the top of the screen. Best, Anna > On Mar 28, 2016, at 12:14 PM, Paul Richard McGann > wrote: > > everyone, > >

Re: Need to Check Status of IOS Update on iPhone

Hi Danny, All your mom needs to do is choose the Slide to Open option, which appears in multiple languages. Once she does, the phone will complete its setup quickly. If I remember right, she won't have to answer any additional questions or configure in any way. Best, Anna > On Mar 28, 2016,

Re: Braille input

Hi, Getting all ten fingers on an iPhone screen could be difficult, particularly with the smaller ipHones. I do think having a spacebar on the screen would be helpful, though, since I'm sure that one reason I have trouble with onscreen braille input is that when I flick right to enter a space,

Hi Harry, Yes, make sure iCloud sync is on for both devices, and everything should sync up. Best, Anna > On Mar 31, 2016, at 10:14 AM, Harry Bell wrote: > > Everything went well on my iPhone 5S iOS 9.3 and iCloud Sync is up and > complete. But when I downloaded the VDR app onto my iPad Air
