I find that after I hit the undo button after I have shaken the phone I then need to hit the space. If I do that it deletes the text and says something about selection deleted. Hope this helps.

However all the text that I had previously dictated remained in the edit field. Sounds like a bug to me. I will reported to Apple.

I'm wondering if that's how it should work so that you have an option if you really want to delete it or not. It's just that it didn't speak to me the first time, and I wasn't expecting it. I wonder what people think? Anyway, thanks for your observations. It's appreciated!

The little blurb that accompanies the update is useless. It gives no specifics as to what they fixed. In fact, there are several updates out that are suffering from this problem. The usual Facebook and messenger four instance. I wish Apple would require developers to actually tell us specifically what they fixed or improved when they put out an update. Mary Sent from my iPhone Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >: Sep 28 10:49AM -0700 Hi Mary, Audible mentions "Crash Fixes" in the What's New section for this release. Yes, that is fairly generic, but if whatever they changed makes the app more stabil and causes it to crash less then I guess there is not much else they can say. Facebook and Messenger always just state the generic message that they are releasing updates about every 2 weeks to make the app better. I have at times seen more detailed information if actual new features were added. I agree that maybe they could be a bit more specific at times. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mary Otten Sent: Monday, September 28, 2015 9:20 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: A new audible update is out For the daring amongst you, there is now a new audible update in the App Store.

However, I opened it again, and after some time, I got to see my library. Of course this phone is old and slow, so I shouldn't expect too much. So far, it's OK. No more crashes.

Might be worth to call Sonos and tell them about this developer and ask if they couldn't make a deal with them to offer this as a music service, I assume there would have to be some sort of fee. If Sonos ever comes out with a high-end headset which hopefully will be soon this would be pretty awesome. I did download the Nature Space app and also the ThunderGod app from the same developer which is a $9.99 app in the US app store ($11.99 in Canada) and has only thunderstorm and rain sounds with no in-app purchases) and I'll see how it sounds on my Sonos surround setup with Playbar, Play 1 rear speakers and Sonos Sub.

In the blurb that accompanies the update, there is a note that they have added some kind of open in Safari action. And this is supposed to let you do that without leaving the app. I assume they mean the newsify app. I looked around in settings, did notsee anything like that. I did 3-D touch on an article link, thinking it would open in Safari. More accurately I thought it would offer me an action menu that would give Safari as a choice. But it didn't. If somebody is using this app and gets this update and figures out what this open in Safari thing means and how to activate it, I would love to know. Thanks and advance.

I hope those of you who have noticed issues are also writing :) From: Don & Cher [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 28, 2015 12:19 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: Broken playlist accessibility in iTunes These problems refer to keyboard accessibility issues in playlists and were created in iTunes 12.2.1 and continue in 12.3: *Selection: Within playlists created with these iTunes versions, selection no longer seems to follow the cursor keys- so standard windows keyboard commands for cut or copy result in a "nothing selected" error message. It is impossible to re-arrange the order of songs created under these versions of iTunes. The only playlists which are still functional are those which were created in prior versions of iTunes. *Navigation: Using the arrow keys, after arrowing up or down for 15 or so lines, the selection focus is lost. You cannot read the information or proceed further in that direction without first arrowing backward one line- which then allows you to move forward one more line- thus advancing only one line at a time (backwards then forwards) in a see-saw fashion. The cursor actually does move but the focus seems to be lost and the new song information is not read. Using the home or end key moves the cursor to the end or beginning of the playlist; but JAWS does not read the information on that line. It is necessary to arrow away from that song and back before the information can be read. Similarly, the page up and page down keys will not read the information for the song on which the cursor lands. *Nuisance artwork: With these iTunes versions, artwork appears on each line of the playlist. Even copying the songs from an old playlist without artwork into a new one created under these versions produces a playlist with the artwork icons. *Nuisance iTunes becoming unresponsive: Accidental use of the standard windows command Control-Home results in iTunes freezing. This command is so commonly used for various purposes by keyboard users that this is bothersome. This is my previous message to you re these issues: From: Don & Cher [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2015 8:09 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: Keyboard accessibility to playlists broken in iTunes 12.2.1 Since installing iTunes 12.2.1, new playlists are not accessible to persons relying on keyboard accessibility to work with them. I phoned Apple Accessibility recently to see if the tech could replicate my problem. He verified that with the latest iTunes, you cannot use keyboard shortcuts to select, copy or move songs in new playlists with the keyboard (using a PC). He verified that it is not a JAWS issue as he did not have JAWS installed, and could not perform these functions either. I can still use all these keyboard commands within playlists created prior to installing the new iTunes- but even if I duplicate an old playlist and rename it (so I can have a editable playlist) the newly duplicated playlist is non-editable- apparently because it was duplicated under the new iTunes. The only way I can add songs to one of these new playlists is by using 'add to playlist' on the context menu- and the order of songs is unchangeable by this method- I.E. the order you add the songs is unchangeable after the fact. So, basically playlists are not very useful.

KNFB reader didn't download despite repeated requests, so I deleted and re-installed. If I go to take a picture, the app closes and the focus changes to "wallet" which is on the same page of apps as KNFB reader. Suggestions? Others have same experience? Thanks.

So how can you correct this. Also have any of you since you have upgraded noticed that you will have A bet quicker the normal battery drop. Like you can have your battery be at 97 percent and then the next time you turn your phone on it will be at like 94 percent. So what can you all turn off or change to make it last A bit longer? -- Casey "Jennie Facer" <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >: Sep 28 08:44AM -0600 There are a few of us that have settings stuck in the app switcher. I think it is a bug in iOS9.0.1. I am not sure what to say about your quick battery drop other than when it is below 20% it will go into power saving mode so you can have more battery until you can charge it.

Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >: Sep 28 08:30AM -0700 Hi Casey, \ Somebody else already posted about Settings being in the app switcher after a reboot. There really is nothing you can do about it, if you think it's a bug report it to Apple, but as far as I am concerned, I think this is so trivial and irrelevant that we should send them messages about more serious issues like the phone calls answering problem which some people experience first. As far as battery is concerned, I would do a Reset Network Settings, if there are any processes stuck which needlessly use WiFi or data this will clear that up. The reset option for this in in Settings > General > Reset. Keep in mind that you will have to reconnect to your WiFi after doing this and hence make sure you know your WiFi password. Apart from that you can Google "iOS Battery saving tips" and you'll find a multitude of articles which describe the things you can do like turning off Bluetooth if you don't need it, setting mail from Push to fetching mail on a 30 minute schedule, looking through your background app refresh and location services and turn off items which aren't important to you etc. Regards, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Casey Sent: Monday, September 28, 2015 7:33 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: having setting in the app switcher everytime I start up my phone from being off Hi every since I have updated my phone to IOS 9.0 every time I turn on my phone from being off settings will be in the app switcher and I haven't opened it yet.
