How to airplay music or radio from Tune-in on ipod touch

Hi, I feel so stupid; I can't work out how to play music or tune-in pro radio from my ipod touch 6th gen via airplay into my airport express. I have found airplay mirror button in the control centre but when I tap it, I get only one choice: my apple tv. I thought airplay has by now become pos

Well, the KNFBReader can kind of read computer screens. You probably won't be able to use an otherwise inaccessible app by having the KNFBReader read the screen to you. But if you get stuck, you might be able to figure out why by having it read an inaccessible dialog box or something like that.

I use a headset from Aftershokz. They are bone-conduction which means they don't cover your ears. I was getting a lot of ear infections and I thought maybe it was because my ears were covered for 8 hours a day. Plus I was worried about the effect headphones had on my hearing. That's not scienti

I'm glad I found out that screen curtain saves no battery life. But I think turning the screen brightness down does. I have mine set to 0 on all of my IOS devices. A visually impaired friend had his set very high and he'd actually lose power while it was plugged in. If he was using it for gamin

David this sounds correct to me as well, black requires juice just like all the other colors. Turning down the brightness is the only way to save power with the screen. Frankly, I don’t bother, just put the brightness in auto mode and let her rip. > On Nov 15, 2016, at 1:00 PM, David Chitten

I can help you with everything but the base adjustment. On the cordless side, the Plantronics Voyager 5220 is a fantastic headset with the best noise cancelation I’ve used so far and that’s saying something because plantronics has kick ass sound cancelation in their products for a long time now

You'll want the version from the website. The app store version, because of Apple's "sanboxing" approach to apps, takes away some functionality. Such as being able to save in some formats, or missing some options. Rachel. > On Nov 16, 2016, at 11:34 AM, Anders Holmberg wrote: > > Hi! > I am g
