Christina,
   VO-shift-space is reliable once I found that keystroke.

   I tried entering a custom keystroke in Fantastical but could not. Will need 
to look at that again.

Good Luck,

if I held down the keys it would open. If that is normal, then good.

   So I tried that method with Dropbox and it eventually opened to its folder

   So I need to find out the right way to open these apps from menu extras.

thing is that if you lose focus on the app, you can find it via the application 
chooser by using vo keys plus F1 or vo plus FN plus f1 twice.

Re: item chooser

[David Griffith]

The behaviour of item chooser has changed in Yosemite.

What used to happen is that there would be a delay, sometimes quite a 
long delay and then item chooser in its entirety would come up.


Now, on my system at least, item chooser will appear much sooner but not 
with the full list of items. Item chooser will normally announce the 
number of items initially loaded. What I think is happening is that the 
longer you wait the more that items are loaded into the chooser.


So if you bring up item chooser in Safari not all the page elements will 
be immediately available. If you continue to press the end button or 
equivalent on a laptop keyboard you will hear that the last item in the 
list keeps changing as the list is expanded to include all the elements 
of a page.


Personally I have grown to like this change as it means that item 
chooser comes up generally much faster than before. However if you are 
looking for an element further down the page you may have to wait before 
the item you are looking for will be added to and available in the list.


If you are used to hearing item chooser and believe that an item is 
immediately available this is confusing. However eventually everything 
as before should be added to the chooser.

automatic downloads of purchased material on iTunes for windows

[Faisal ali]

Hi everyone,
I bought quite a few songs last night on iTunes on my phone. On my mac, the 
songs I purchased downloaded automatically with out any issues. However on 
windows, they are not downloading. When I try going to check for available 
downloads, it says there are no more available downloads when there are clearly 
songs missing that it hasn’t downloaded. Has anyone else seen this behaviour? 
If so, is there a work around? I tried downloading material from the purchased 
link in the iTunes store on windows, but that page is very poorly laid out in 
my opinion and I cannot make heads or tails of it. I just want my purchased 
music to automatically download like they do  on my mac.

Re: automatic downloads of purchased material on iTunes for windows

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

No real experience with the Windows version of iTunes, but try the following.  
Go into iTunes Preferences, to the Store tab.  Confirm that you have it set to 
automatically download the specific media you wish to be automatically 
downloaded.  To download other items that have not already been downloaded, 
check the box to Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases from the same pane.  After 
closing the Preferences, the list of media should include those items that are 
still in the Cloud and there should now be a Download button beside the title.  
Pre that Download button so that the item will become locally available.

Later...

Re: automatic downloads of purchased material on iTunes for windows

[Jeff Berwick]

Hi Tim,

Do you know how I can get my purchased Tones to download in iTunes on the Mac?  
There isn't an option to check them in Store preferences, and none of mine show 
up on my Mac.  They do, however, show up on my iPhone.

Tia,
Jeff

Hi,
For this, simply plug your phone to your mac and go to transfer purchases. I 
believe its under the file menu.

item chooser

[Jean]

David and All:
On some pages the item chooser works fine but on most it is a very long delay 
before it appears and sometimes it doesn’t appear at all.  I have an eleven 
inch Air so how would I do the end key within the context of the item chooser?  
Would this make it appear more quickly?
As always, many thanks in advance,
Jean

Question about NFS and screen

[Jenine Stanley]

Quick question about using NFS  on an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus. 

Does the screen need to be visible? If you have screen curtain on all the time, 
do you need to turn that off and hold up your phone to something, screen facing 
that device, to use NFS technology?

Re: Question about NFS and screen

[Alex Hall]

I assume you mean NFC. If so, no, the screen curtain shouldn't matter. I'm not 
speaking from experience, but there's no technical reason to imagine the screen 
matters. NFC is just a short-range radio transmition, so it should work either 
way.

Re: Question about NFS and screen

Thanks Alex. 

I have no idea why in my brain I had that as NFS rather than NFC. It wouldn’t 
even matter then which side of your phone was pointing at the receiver or cash 
transaction device if it’s a radio signal. 

Not there yet but soon enough.

Re: Question about NFS and screen

[Alex Hall]

The range is very short, as in a few inches. Thus, while the status of the 
screen being on or off shouldn't matter, the facing direction may. Again, I've 
had zero experience here, so I'm just going off documentation and what I know.

RE: Question about NFS and screen

[M. Taylor]

Hello Jenine,

Please keep in mind that in order to use Apple Pay, via the NFC protocol, you 
must use the device's Touch ID sensor as you hold/wave/pass the device 
over/near the vendor's payment/transaction terminal.

One nice thing I've noticed while doing this is that it is not necessary to 
first have the Passbook app running in the background in order to successfully 
complete a transaction.

Oh, it is also not necessary to first unlock the screen in order to complete a 
transaction.  

Simply put, Apple Pay facilitates the smoothest brick & mortar purchasing 
experience I've ever had the pleasure of conducting.

Several of my friends, sighted and non-sighted alike, go out of their way to 
patronize vendors who accept Apple Pay via NFC.

Mark

Re: tips for Nightowl please

Yes you can send a DM from twitterific on the iPhone. DM are a standard twitter 
function that’s supported on all the clients I’ve every used. Haven’t used that 
client for a while on the iPhone though.

Re: Numbers

[Garth Humphreys]

Just started playing with numbers on the mac for the first time, I’m an excel 
user at work. 
1. Can you define a range with a name so you can just reference the range with 
that name?
2 What’s the syntax for referencing a table or range on a different sheet and 
or file?  e.g., I’m trying to do a Vlookup where the table is on a different 
sheet, what’s the best way?

That’ll do for a start, thanks for any assistance.

Viewing Purchase History Online?

[Alex Hall]

Hi all,
It's a long story, but the bottom line is this: I need to view the purchase 
history for an Apple ID, and I can't use iTunes. Is there a way I can do this 
online only? If so, what is the link? Thank you in advance.

Re: Problems with Voice Dream Reader on an iPhone 6

[Anders Holmberg]

Hi!
I really don’t see the need of yet another app specially developped for blind 
people.
Of course there sometimes is a need for it for example the voice dream reader 
and the knfb reader apps.
But as pages works just like a charm on both the mac and ios devices i don’t 
really see no need for a special writing app for blind people.
But thats my personal opinion and maybe there are good arguments for it.
And if someone buys it thats fine for me.
Though i wouldn’t.

Re: word count

[Anne Robertson]

Hello,

In Pages, show or hide word count is in the View menu. The count appears to the 
left of the Formatter. It’s a menu button and the menu offers several choices 
such as character or paragraphs.

In TextEdit, you need a script to do this.

Cheers,

Anne

Safari weirdness when clicking on multiple links from one email message

[Donna Goodin]

Hi all,

I have noticed that lately if I have an email message from which I want to view 
multiple links, even though I click on different links, Safari will always open 
to a certain one.  So let's say a message has five different links, and I want 
to look at each linked page.  I click on the first one and all is fine.  But 
when I close that page, go back to the message, and click on the second link, 
I'm taken back to the page of the first link.  does anyone know what's up with 
this?  It's very annoying.
Thanks,
Donna

bt keyboards and keys being heald down

[Juan Hernandez]

Hi All,

 

I am running latest iOS 8.1.3 on my iPad air 2.

 

I have seen sometimes, that when getting into an edit field, where I can
type, that voice over or the iPad will simulate a key press.  I t will act
as if someone is holding down one of the letters on the Bluetooth keyboard.
I have to kill the app, and voice over sometimes for it to stop.  I can't
seem to find a trend of how to reproduce this error.  I have had this occur
on my apple bt keyboard, an older zagkeys profolio keyboard case, and
latest, on my new clam case pro.

 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 

Best,

 

Juan

Hi All,

Any x code user here, could you tell me if you have a link or something about 
constraints in interface builder?

I'm using version 6.1.1 and trying to figure this part out of a swift code book 
I'm reading through.

Re: xcoders please help

I’d strongly recommend starting out by looking at the apple docs: 
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AutolayoutPG/WorkingwithConstraints/WorkingwithConstraints.html
 

 

That being said I’m not a fan of the new auto-layout system. I usually uncheck 
the “use auto layout” box and either code my GUI elements to act the way I want 
or use the old “autoresizing” method.

Re: Problems with Voice Dream Reader on an iPhone 6

[Christina C.]

have you listened to a podcast on Dream Writer or read about the features that 
are specific to voiceover users? These features seem to make a lot of sense to 
me. I really want to purchase voice dream writer due to the features offered in 
it especially when trying to edit documents on an iDevice and fighting to get 
the curser in the proper spot and copying and pasting in the exact spots. I 
find this to be very cumbersome and therefore avoid editing documents on my 
iDevices. However, I do want to try it with voice Dream Writer and plan to 
purchase it.

Re: Problems with Voice Dream Reader on an iPhone 6

[Christina C.]

Voice Dream Reader is not used only by the blind community and not everyone in 
the blind community uses applevis or viPhone.  When I love an app I don’t mind 
at all when a developer mentions a new app in the update notes, especially if 
it is an app I love and find very useful. I actually quite appreciate learning 
that their newest app is now available in the app store. Even my sighted family 
members are happy when they learn their favorite app developer has a new app 
out. I do not regularly visit a developer’s website or app pages in the app 
store to see if they have made anything new. I prefer a small blurb in the 
update notes instead of being bombarded in my inbox or with constant ads within 
the app. I also do not feel like the developer was taking a cheap shot and 
putting out a fake update just to advertise voice Dream Writer. he had 
negotiated with the TTS companies so that one would not have to double purchase 
voices for both voice Dream Reader and Voice Dream Writer. He wanted customers 
to be able to carry those in app purchases over to Voice Dream Writer. In my 
opinion, I thought that was very considerate of him.  The update to voice Dream 
Reader was necessary to make that happen, it wasn’t just a cheap way to 
advertise his new app.

Re: Fantastical

[Christina C.]

Hmmm, I’ve never tried to open it from menu extras. Did you try the application 
chooser? I’m not talking about the applications folder. That is how I used to 
get to it or I would use a shortcut keystrokes that I set up within 
fantastical’s settings and that would usually bring fantastical into focus. It 
was like it was always sort of hanging around somewhere in the background. When 
I got sighted assistance a sighted user could see it open but the only way I 
could bring it into focus was by using the application chooser or the hotkeys 
tha I set up within Fantastical’s settings.

Re: Fantastical

Christina,
   VO-shift-space is reliable once I found that keystroke.

   I tried entering a custom keystroke in Fantastical but could not. 
Will need to look at that again.

item chooser

Re: Fantastical

[Christina]

Unless things have changed, you should be able to get to fantastical from the 
application chooser.  Do you know what that is?  I'm not at my computer right 
now, I think it is VO plus F1 F1. Depending on your settings, you may also need 
to hold down the FN key. That is how I used to get to it once fantastical was 
hiding in the background.

 I haven’t used Fantastical in a very long time and purchased it a couple 
 of years ago. I used to get to Fantastical via launch pad from the doc. 
 Also, in settings there is a option to set up a hot key to open 
 fantastical. One more thing is that if you lose focus on the app, you can 
 find it via the application chooser by using vo keys plus F1 or vo plus FN 
 plus f1 twice.
