Jackie, you have surpassed yourself (or should I say that Lady W has
surpassed herself)
Brilliant notes with some great creativity, did you pull the chain to stop
the train?
Cheers
Paul

Welcome aboard the 11hundred hours train from Cork to Technology. the
following passengers were on board, this train was driven by the one and
only Lady W.
Ken Walsh, Derry Walsh, Chris Egan, Martha Parkinson, Dominique Farrell,
Pat McCarthy, Jackie McBrearty, Martin Kelly, Stuart Haxell, Cearbhall
O'Meadhra, Nelly Beattie, John Chambers, Paul Griffith and Clare
Cassidy.
Our resident Mr complicated Cearbhall told us about his difficulty signing
into his audible app. Cearbhall uses audible.com and a user name rather than
his email address. Cearbhall deleted the audible app and reinstalled it
and this enabled Cearbhall sign in using his user name. Jackie suggested
about changing from the user name to email but I'm not 100% sure how that
ended up.
Stuart mentioned the key chain and how useful he finds this for remembering
his passwords. Jackie agreed with Stuart. There was allot of explaining
about where to find the key chain and the fact that two factor
authentication needs to be enabled before using this. Jackie was prompted
on this when she updated her phone to the iPhone11. If key chain is on you
can find your list of passwords by going to Settings and passwords.
Jackie told us about the email she received from the soundscape team. Jackie
did post this email to the list so Lady W will not repeat the information.
Jackie informed us all about the genius that is Paul Griffith who told
Jackie about setting a marker for her local post office. Jackie made contact
with soundscape as she was unable to add it from searching for the place
within the app. Jackie's post office is located on Robbers lane. Soundscape
is still getting rave reviews by our members. Dominique was on the NCBI labs
event talking about it, this podcast can be found on Alexa.
Clare told us all about her trip to Dublin, she said she didn't use any GPS
apps but counted steps and used her visual memory.
Clare asked about her apple watch and the fact she can't enter her passcode.
Everyone echoed that if your passcode is 1, 2, 3, 4, then you need to double
tap each digit rather than just single tapping.
Clare also told us about her iPad and the fact that it has a different jack
to her iPhone 12pro max so her wired earphones would not work on the iPad,
she had to purchase a wee converter to use the earphones.
Clare was also asking about closing a tab in safari as she has some sort of
typing tutor on the main page and she can't get out of it. Stuart directed
her by telling her to look for the tab button this is located somewhere on
the screen either on the top or bottom and double tapping on this will
bring up the tabs. This then got a little confusing and Lady W lost the
plot.
Paul cheered us all right up by telling us he struggled to use rip.ie
during the week. Paul was searching for a death but when he did the search
it didn't appear accessible it came up as a graphic. Cearbhall suggested to
try using OCR on it via jaws. This is done by pressing the jaws key, O and
then A. Jackie asked did he accept all cookies as this could also pose an
issue, cookies were accepted. Paul will give the OCR a go and report back.
Last week fangs and fur tested an issue that was reported by the Quiz group
last week. When fangs and fur tried it out they discovered they needed to do
a two finger double tap twice while having whatsapp open. This did not work
for the quiz group so they ended up using zoom. This also got very
complicated so Lady W tooted the horn and left another station.
Martin told us all about sandwiches and his home button on his ancient
iPhone. Last week he told us all about his home button not working. When
Martin took it to the apple store he was told replacing the home button
would also mean replacing the screen. We all echoed yet again to martin to
purchase himself a new iPhone SE2020 and he'd have a functioning home
button.
Martin's issue started a wee chat on Siri and how he/she can be very
uncooperative, swear words were used to describe its behaviour. Lady W will
not repeat such bad language as they are not befitting a lady with such
high standing as Lady W.
Lady W stopped the train in a station and all passengers disembarked and
Lady W was arrested for stealing a train. So the meeting ended with Lady W
getting carted off by the Gardaà while screaming for chocolate Eclairs.
Lady W.
