I would like to be a better writer. Your question made me realize that not all of us think about the future. Twenty years ago I would not have believed two children would be deceased, or that I would be HoH and LV (Low Vision) and live alone. I have a story that involves a father in Europe and...

Apple User Group I bought my first Mac in 1999. It is the year I first joined DSLR. I came back in 2003. Apple and MUG (Mac User Group) has been a part of this forum for years. This is a place to go for help with every type of Apple product including software. I am going to introduce...

If you use a Mac, click on the Mac icon (looks like a hard drive) on your desktop. In the menu on your left look for the word Downloads. Click on it. You should find everything you ever downloaded here. :)

Hmmm I don't think so. In my case it was vBulletin code, whereas 3G has more to do with cellular technology. I live in a rural area surrounded by tall hills and forests. I need a cell phone that is 3G or I can't make a cell call from home; I am not near 4G, anyway,. It must be a Bluetooth...

Yes I do I do check the remember me box. I am kicked off sooner than 60 minutes. I had my issues with VBulletin in other venues too. This is the best of the forums. In my case it has been the PC code used. Not all forums play nicely with Unix, and Capcha locks up my computer every time. I am on...

You are not alone! Do you TTY? Is there a deaf group in Knoxville? If you don't know, someone in this group will know. I don't live in TN. It is hard to accept loss of a sense when you are so young. It's easier for me as I am a lot older than you. Do you have aids? Do they help? Have you...

I'm straight; you're not. So what? I'm straight; my grandchild is gay. So what? I'm straight; my grandchild loves a deaf gay. So what? I'm straight; I've had LGBT friends most of my 70+ years. Now what do I do?. They want to live we me, I don't pretend to understand their lifestyle; I...

I looked at the Boogie Board and I like it, but I am disappointed. I could not find one price on the website, and the nearest retailer is 100 miles round trip. This is more than annoying.

VBulletin is nothing new. I moderated on a million member forum that uses it for a long time. I just finished trying o send a fairly long message to a member. I couldn't send the message because I was kicked off. The directions for PCs do not work well with OS X machines. I was locked into a...

My immediate opinion is probably negative. I suspect very strongly the apps are not universal, and will not play nice with Apple, Straight Talk, and TracFone. Part of the issue for me is color. I don't see all colors well; black and white works best for me. Back in the Ice Age when I bought...

I have the same problem. I also live rural, so I need a WiFi/3G plus Bluetooth capable cell phone that is a minimum 3M/3T hearing aid capable phone. I also need a large keyboard. The virtual keyboard is the only type that fits my needs as I am also low vision. . I buy at TracFone to avoid...

I can never remember mine. It's a good thing I added it to m signature. Unitron is a very good unit. I like mine as the audiologist can adjust each independently as I continue to lose sound. My loss is very uneven. My original request was for a Panasonic aids. I had wires from the ears to my...

The cost to replace mine is more than insane. At home, I keep mine in the Global II storage box with Dry-Brik II desiccant. When I go out I have three different sizes of boxes I can safely use to carry mine. They are all hard shell with padding and a foam liner. Depending upon the box, my aids...

I traveled for 60 years. I've driven in three countries of North America and live in Illinois. I usually had a breakfast sandwich. If I didn't I would wait a little later and get McD fish sandwich. Many times dinner was from the grocer. We like the variety of meats and cheeses with the local...

I forget that parking lots mean different things. The parking lot I referenced is familiar to me, it is very small and it was empty at the time. There is a rare few parking lots I walk into alone. Since I don't have near sight, too much can go wrong. Thank you for reminding me to be more careful...

Illinois signed it into law. New York is slated to follow. New Jersey is considering it. I used some of those annoying phone systems in the past that are too complicated to use. But you won't know it until you try to order pizza.

Can you help me? Partial deafness, and the idea I will lose what is left of my hearing is very new to me. I am one-of-one in my county. I have never been exposed to a deaf community. I am not aware of where to look. I've lived in small rural communities for the last 35 years. I don't know...

Um... I don't understand your question, Highlander. FCC licenses telephone companies, ham radio operators, and television stations. It doesn't license software, or oversee horrible Internet providers. I wish it did.

At least it is not behind a paywall, too :D

I spent some time today talking to Ian at NexTalk about their Access Home Edition software. Presently it only works on a PC running Windows.(I have to wait.) It essentially replaces the unwieldy TTY with a virtual machine that is included in the software. Within the year there will be a...
