Re: issue navigating a document in Word on Mac

2022-04-13 Thread Bill Gallik
I wish I could be more helpful in this matter, but when I first installed the 
Microsoft Office Suite on my Mac Mini I was experiencing the issue as described 
in this thread.  Several months ago I was trying to work with a document I had 
copied from my old Windows PC and tapped some sort of control that I simply 
don’t remember.  The issue completely vanished.

As I say, I wish I could recall that control.  But I post this message to the 
thread to encourage others that there is a solution.

OT: Paying Accessibly for Taxi Rides in New York

2022-04-13 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries
Hi, All:

Please pardon what's probably the OT, but I am going to be in Manhattan
starting Thursday, and I expect to use taxis quite a bit, along with
perhaps an Uber or Lift or two.

No concerns about Uber, but several about how to use the accessible
payment kiosk mounted in front of the right side passenger seat in the
back of New York cabs. I haven't been able to find a good howto to read
in advance, and being in the moment is often fraught with distractions.

So, if anyone can give me a quick pointer or two about how to use a
credit card, or even my phone (perhaps over NFC?), I'd be grateful. For
instance, where and how does one insert one's credit card? Is it a swipe
kind of thing? Or an insert and wait for the beep beep?

Any pointers greatly appreciated!

Janina

Re: Does anyone use Chromecast?

2022-04-13 Thread 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries
Hi, Donna:

Yes, I have three pairs of the old Google Max speakers throughout my
apartment. I love casting to them because I can then wander around my
apartment and not miss anything.

BTW: I understand the new Book Share app will have the ability to cast,
and I can't wait. That will be so cool!

Best,

Janina

Re: Does anyone use Chromecast?

2022-04-13 Thread Rob Bender
Hi everyone. I hope this is the right place to ask this question since this is 
not an Apple issue. I have a question about Chromecasting to smart speakers. 
We have a number of Google Homes in our apartment and TuneIn stations drop at 
different times during the day. Just wondering if this happens using Apple 
HomePods as well.
 Brand new modem and router and we still experience this the most in the 
afternoons. Just trying to isolate if this may be a problem with ChromeCast and 
TuneIn rather than with the Google speakers specifically. If anyone has any 
ideas you can write to me privately at rbende...@gmail.com. Thanks.

Hi Rob,

With some stations it does happen with our HomePods and Sonos speakers.  But I 
live in a rural area, so I’ve always assumed it’s because of our lousy internet.

Hi Donna. Thanks for your prompt reply. We are in a high rise apartment in a 
big city so I hope it isn’t a problem with our Internet. The technician who 
installed the new equipment last week said that he adjusted the signal from the 
cable for best performance so I don’t know what else our provider would do. I 
think I may have run out of things to try and any ideas are welcome even if 
they may not seem to be related to my problem.

A Question for Those Experiencing Siri Not Dialing Phone Numbers Beginning with Symbols

2022-04-13 Thread M. Taylor
Hello Everyone,

I am just going to put this out there and if anyone knows of a solution,
please pass it on.  

I have researched this bug, on the web, and a great deal of people are
reporting the problem.  I, as yet, have not discovered a solution.

If the following makes no sense to you, then just ignore it.

In iOS15.4.1, Siri will not Dial Telephone Numbers that Begin with a Symbol

On some Wireless networks, one can selectively display one's CallerID by
inserting a prefix symbol sequence in front of a telephone number.  

Please note that the prefix symbol sequence continues to function as
expected when one manually selects the phone number from the Contacts list
or from the Favorites page in the Phone app.  The bug does not appear until
one attempts to use Siri to dial a contact, hands-free.

Steps to Reproduce the Bug:
1.
Create a Contact with a local telephone number that includes the prefix
symbol sequence of *31#.  For example "*31#2125551212" (without the
quotation symbols.)  This will allow the contact (John Doe) to see your
telephone number even when the show caller ID setting is disabled, in the
Phone app.

2.
>From the Settings area, select the Phone app.

3.
Set [SHOW MY CALLER ID] to OFF.

4.
Say to Siri, "Call John Doe."  Siri will respond with "Calling John Doe" and
the phone app will appear.  After a few seconds, however, the phone app
disappears and no call is placed.

Mark

A question about showind audio description in a group setting?

2022-04-13 Thread Karen Lewellen

making that subject clear is a challenge.
Here is the situation, one of my co-workers is going to be showing  films 
as apart of a series where only a few members need audio description.
Think of well like going to the movies, without the special equipment 
provided  by the company.

How would you manage the process?
Is there  software that helps filter, say if rented on YouTube, and you 
desire spoken subtitles?

If my question is confusing let me know,

It cannot be done as the audio description is part of the same track as the 
movie. It might be possible with Share-Play, but that would. mean everyone has 
to be on there own device.

Re: A question about showind audio description in a group setting?

2022-04-13 Thread Karen Lewellen
hmm could a single device running share play work if one was channeling the 
film audio through a control surface of some kind or a sound mixer? say 
one  channel for the track of the film with audio description, and one 
track with the main track?
Slightly different question, if there is no audio description, but 
subtitles is there a way for the subtitles to be spoken, again through a 
headset paired in, instead of the main sound for the rest of the room?

Thanks for helping me answer their questions.
Karen
