Raul,
Thanks much for your suggestion of Dropbox. My only concern is that I
will need an internet connection to access my folders. This is fine as
long as my G4 works!
Is there any way also to download those folders to the iPhone, as I would
on a computer, and store them locally?
At least Dropbox will allow me to upload them from a computer.
I will experiment and let everyone know as soon as I have something
working.

Hello there. First off welcome to the list. Second, no doubt you will get other
responses but here's what works for me. I use a program called drop box. This
is something which will work in your Windows computer as well as in your
iPhone. The service is free to sign up and gives you 2 GB free for use. You can
earn additional storage by referring people or by doing various tasks. Once you
sign up for dropbox and install it on your computer it will create a dropbox
folder. Any files that you put inside this folder can be inside other
subfolders as well. So maybe you could have a songs folder or lyrics folder
inside dropbox. That is the first step. Next, there are multiple apps in the
app store which are text editors and which will read dropbox folders. The one I
like a lot is called droptext. This app is completely voiceover accessible and
will read your dropbox folders and allow you to add new or edit existing text
files which are located there. I believe this will solve your issue of having
to write out lyrics in multiple places.The app I believe is two or three
dollars. Drop box itself is free.there are other solutions but this one seems
like would work the best based on your question. Good luck and let us know if
this works.

I have been on this list only for a few weeks, but am pleased to find some very
helpful users of the i devices. In case any of you have a recommendation, this
is what I would like to do:
I am using a 64-bit iPhone 4S with the latest iOS update and the Focus 14 blue
from Freedom Scientific.
I am looking for an app that would allow me to store hundreds of small text
files containing song lyrics, scripture readings, church bulletins, etc. I
sing in my church choir and have been printing everything on paper, which
requires both time and organization each week. I would like to store
everything in my iPhone so that I can locate what I need quickly, turn off
speech and use the Braille display for reading and singing.
I have the text files stored on a Windows computer and would rather download
them than retype everything, if possible. Each file is titled with the first
initial of each word in the song, or some other appropriate identifier for a
text file to be read aloud.
Is this a dream, or something actually possible?
I thought about just using Notes, but don't know if there is a limit to the
number of notes I can store or if I can download files to create new notes.
This does of course need to be accessible, as I have no vision.
If you know of any apps that might fill my need, please let me know what they
are and where I can find them. I am not concerned about cost.
Thanks in advance,
Beverly Wieland
