Subject: [fb-exchange] Cork TechClub Saturday 12th June.
Lady W is back in the side-saddle for this mornings antics in Cork. Hold on
tight as we trot and gallop our way through Technical issues.
The following people were in attendance:
Ken Walsh, Derry Walsh, Chris Egan, Martha Parkinson, Noreen Meagher,
Jackie McBrearty, Dominique Farrell, Martin Kelly, Cearbhall O'Meadhra,
Paul Griffiths, and Pat Walsh.
We had sorries from Gavin Allman.
Chris who was coming live from the cave told us all about an issue with his
borrow box app. Chris selected his book ; The many adventures of Winnie the
Pooh. Voiceover wasn't reading the summery but he could preview the book and
borrow the book. Many suggestions were given and the one that appeared to
semi work was a single finger quadruple tap. This gesture brought him down
to the section with the summery. Chris has the time and the cave to mess
around more with reading the summery of his favourite books.
Pat Walsh, was asking us about the reminders app, I don't know what was the
issue with this app but he wanted another app that would do the same thing.
So Pat did a live test on the native calendar app and he'll also work on this
and see what he can learn.
Pat was also asking about muting jaws while in a zoom meeting. Pat was
directed to press a combination of buttons that include insert, space and S.
This note takers eyes glazed over and in the end Pat was just told to hit or
batter the control key to silence jaws.
Ken was asking about the audible app. During the week Ken was talking to one
of his other friends who was also an audible member, this friend had paused
her membership but the weird thing she was unable to sign out. This baffled
the group and I'm unsure if there was any resolution to the problem as
everything we suggested Ken had told her and still nothing.
The following piece on Be my Eyes may not be fully accurate but this note
taker took delivery of cupcakes. So anyway Ken has issues when he trys to
connect with the specialised help on the Be My Eyes app, once he attempts to
connect they can't hear him and he can't hear them. No one seemed to have the
same issue as Ken accept for the odd connectivity issue that gets resolved
after the person ends the faulty call and reinitiates the call for help. Ken
does not have any issues getting general help so this one puzzled us all. Ken
got banned before as apparently after three failed attempts the developers
believe your up to no good and you get banned from the app. We know Ken is
not naughty we believe its a connection issue and it was suggested Ken makes
contact with the developers again.
When we started on Microsoft people discussed screens being upside down and
the methods on fixing the issue for our sighted peers who don't have the
ability to read upside down. This note taker heard bla bla bla bla and
cupcakes danced in her head. Perhaps one of the above attendees can explain
the keys to press that will put the screen the right way up again.
Derry wanted to know the number for the AIB special number. So Derry here it
is 1800 207232.
Then a conversation started with muting and unmuting with zoom and teams.
This note taker is biased and states zoom is much easier and cleaner to deal
with than teams.
The meeting ended with innuendos.
All stay safe and upright this week and the journey continues next week Live
from the real Capital of Co Cork.
Lady W
