Re: Sitrix access

, they will allow me to install the screen reader. My question is JFW or NVDA. That will depend on how well NVDA can access our specialised programs. I would prefer to avoid the several hundred dollar JFW upgrade cost as my JFW license is 5 years out-of-date.. Kind regards, David Chittenden

Re: Sitrix access

Yes, but the organisation does not support Apple (save for iPads), so they will probably require OneDrive. I personally would prefer iCloud. I seriously doubt they will accept dropbox. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my

Step outside the US, and Alexa falls apart. Unlike Siri and Google, Alexa does not support anything outside it's limited geographical area. This is why it is able to be so much better there, it is limited in scope. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com M

Re: Anyone ever factory reset their Sonos player?

We upgraded to the new Sonos Play Base to go with our new 70" Samsung TV. We needed to factory reset all the Sonos speakers in the house to get them working with the new configuration. It took about an hour. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile

PlayBase is the update to the PlayBar. It is a large flat rectangle. It beams sound around the room, giving a more dynamic listening experience. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my iPhone > On 25/04/2017, at 05:55, Te

Well, I was unaware of how to start VoiceView independently. It is good to know that one can do so without needing to initially set up in settings. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my iPhone > On 25/04/2017, at 12

Re: Anyone ever factory reset their Sonos player?

The sound is definitely better from the PlayBase. My partner gave me one for Easter.. Sonos Playbar is popular enough that we were able to sell it for just a hundred less than we paid for it on eBay. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988

Interesting considering that they have some blind people working in the position. If it is not accessible, they have accessible work-arounds in place. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my iPhone > On 27/04/2017, at 14
