Re: strange problem with mac and iPhone 5 contacts
Hi there I had a similar situation recently, except mine was with Notes. I found out how to crash Notes, and I did it good. In the process, I had a situation where my Notes on the iPhone were right and my Mac refused to sync with the iPhone and get the Notes right. Let me see if I can remember what we did because I had to call that 877 number for Accessibility support with Apple. We had to do one of those Remote Advisor sessions, but here's what I remember. Maybe it will help, and if I have left anything out, someone can jump in here. I had to go into icloud.com and sign off of icloud. I was warned to save Contacts on my Mac, which I did. Then we changed the Notes on my Mac by deleting the ones that were not supposed to be on there. Then I got back onto the Cloud and we let the Mac sync with the Cloud. This is the best idea I can come up with.

Accessible Anti-Virus for the Mac
Hello, I was wondering what would be a good antivirus program that will work with voiceover? I was told about nod for Mac, has anyone tried that to see if it's accessible? And if not, what would be a recommended product.

Re: Braille Display Questions
Hi Kristeen. VoiceOver should recognize your Focus 40 Blue, whether you are using your Mac, your IOS device, or a Windows computer. I've connected to a Windows compchter with Blue Tooth. I have with my Mac and iPhone. The one thing that I am finding is that you will want to connect it within the VoiceOver utility. With my braille display, even after it's on the list of devices, if I go to the turn Bluetooth on and try that way, I get an error message, even though it's on the list. When you connect it within the VO utility, y'blind want to make sure you have the braille display turned on before you tell Vo to find it. That sounds obvious, but these things can be kind of sensitive if they don't find each other right away. After Vo finds your display you will then be asked to put in a code. Some of them are 1234 and some are , so others here can tell you what the code is for the Focus 40 Blue. After that, you should do ok. Congratulations on getting a braille, of things, for a Christmas present. I never got anything that good for Christmas.

Has anyone with an IPhone 5 also had this issue?
OK, I just bit the bullet today and now have gotten an IPhone 5. God! Blessid! I love this thing! I do however have one very minor yet extremely irritating problem, and I didn't know if maybe I forgot to set something, or maybe if this is actually an IPhone 5 issue. First of all, let's talk about Siri. One thing I notice is that when she speaks back to me, even though I have Voiceover at a real comfortable volume, she is extremely quiet on the Siri side of things. Yes, I did turn it up while she was in the process of speaking, just like you do to raise the Voiceover volume. That worked, but I then find that sometimes if I use Siri dictation, when she repeats back what she's insertting into the text box, it's again really quiet. I'll turn it back up, but then later after a few times of use, she'll notcher self right back down. It's totally strange! I don't get it! Yeah, I did power off the phone and back on just in case of a glitch. I also did quickly quintupple rapidly do the 5 click press on the sleep button to reset my springboard. That did no good either. The other problem is, say I'm on a call and I get a text message, or say a Facebook alert etc. Voiceover reads the notification so loudly that it almost blows my eardrum! The first time it happened, I almost through the thing across the room as it scared me so badly. (OK, that's being a bit exagerant, but you get my point.) LOL! The bottom line is, it was extremely! loud. and I do mean, l'l'l'loud! I mean that sucker, had to be at least! generously speaking, yet literally speaking, probably 3 or 4 times louder than the person I was speaking to. As she was reading the notification, I quickly clicked my volume down button on the left side of the phone, and I got it where Voiceover was no longer blaring, but at that point, the person I was talking to was almost inaudible. Could this be because the setting under settings, sound was set to where the volume buttons effect the ringer and alerts? I shut that off, as I normally have that off anyway, but for some odd reason, that setting didn't carry over from my backup's restoration from my old 4S. I just know that is gonna drive me nuts and make me deaf in the longrun if I can't figure it out. LOL! Yes, I literally mean it, it was that? loud! It was insane! The really bizarre thing is, now get a load a this! on speaker phone? I don't have that problem. voiceover is pretty much the same exact volume as the party who is on the line. Isn't? that! weird? Anyway, yeah... I'm at a loss. If anyone has any clue, please! do tell! Now, I'm really! curious.

Re: Has anyone with an IPhone 5 also had this issue?
Chris; I am having both of these issues with my iPhone 4S, running iOS six. I also tried changing the localization for Siri, for example switching it to the UK voice. I found that I was additionally having the same volume issue that you are having. Related to the notifications, that is very irritating when it occurs. I typically have to have someone repeat themselves when they are speaking to me on the phone. http://empoweringtheblind.com Empowering the blind, one person at a time.

Re: Has anyone with an IPhone 5 also had this issue?
YOu have my sympathy. I also have the second issue. What I do is take the phone off my ear, then press two fingers on the screen to shut her up. As for Siri being quieter, I actually prefer it because I don't want to use headphones. For me, it's not really that much of a difference though.

Re: Has anyone with an IPhone 5 also had this issue?
Hi, I haven't experienced the 1st issue on my iPhone 5. Siri volume stays put on what I place it on. As far as your 2nd issue? Yes. It irritates me to no end. It is extremely loud, and really does hurt my ear. And it does indeed drown out the person I'm speaking to.
