Does 9720 support the screen reader app
Hello,
I havent bought a Blackberry yet but i am looking for a phone which has a hardware keyboard and also talks back to you, for my wife who recently became blind.
Can i install the screenreader app on a 9720?
I want a SIM free phone which has a keyboard and also has a screen reader or talkback, and it is proving very difficult to find one.

Hi @derekstorkey! Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
Yes you can install the screan reader app on older BlackBerry Devices. However, I looked at the 9720's Manuals and I can't find any documentation that it supports the app, so I can't assure you that this specific model supports that. For more information about downloading and installing BlackBerry Screen Reader, visit www.blackberry.com/screenreader
Have you tried considering BlackBerry10 devices? They come preloaded with Screen Reader and you don't have to download anything. Try the Q10 or the BlackBerry Classic

This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed
I was successfully creating Windows Store Apps using Visual Studio 2013, using my dev account. VS has recently re-registered my ID as well.
Today, any Strore App (including "Mail", "Store", "PC Settings"...) not running nor any of project is not launching when I start debugging. It gives dialog as shown below. Also, as the app starts showing as installed in the
start screen, when I tap it there, it doesn't run. Just splash screen flashes for a few seconds and then disappears.
Microsoft Visual Studio
Unable to activate Windows Store app '3a829624-c06f-426b-8186-9312684573a2_bs4v6h88qrjp4!App'. The activation request failed with error 'This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed'.

Lock screen does not support the new panoramic feature in iOS7
Lock screen does not support the new panoramic feature in iOS7.
You are supposed to be able to take panoramic photos and then set them as your lock screen background.
Then you can move your phone around to see the full photo.
My i5 doesn't !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I believe this was removed in the later betas of IOS 7. It may make a reappearance in a future update.
It was mentioned at WWDC when iOS 7 was announced, but there is no mention of it on the Apple website. -

My iphone4s does not lock the screen automatically when playing music and charging
My iphone4s (iso5.1) does not lock the screen automatically with the condition in charging and playing music.
System has been set to lock the screen in 1 mins.
Everything goes fine when not in charging, the system can lock well even playing music.
System can lock as well when all the music playing apps are closed, even when charging.
I don't think that's my apps' problem, all my music playing apps have the same problem.
My ipod has the exact same problem described above, I believe that's an iso system bug.It's not something i'm familar with but i will forward it internally for investigation. Could you please send me a PM with the IMEI of your phone and the build number? You can find these under Settings -> About phone and Settings -> About phone -> Status.

As of Monday 4/20, I've encountered a significant problem with Silverlight on my Vista PC.
Several weeks ago I read a brief item stating that Google would be dropping support for npapi and that it would affect Silverlight sometime in April. One of my key daily apps uses Silverlight, but I didn't receive notification from that software's author
about the pending change and how it would be handled. Successfully used the app every week (Mon-Fri) this month for 8-10 hrs/dy day (as I've been doing for the past ~5+ years: past year under Chrome, year before that under FireFox, ~3 prior years
under IE) and on Fri 4/17 shut it down for the weekend. When I booted up on Mon morning and tried to log into the key app however, it prompted me to download and install Silverlight, acting as though I never had it installed!
I recalled the earlier warning about Google dropping support, so I closed Chrome, started up FireFox, but got the same prompt from the app -- it directed me to install Silverlight. I downloaded it (had no choice as to which version, just got the "Silverlight_x64.exe"
file) and got part-way through the install when this error msg popped up: "Unable to Install Silverlight. Your operating system does not support the 64-bit version of Silverlight". WHAT?! Clicking on the "more info"
link led to this msg: "Message ID: 1518. Your operating system does not support the 64-bit version of Silverlight. Click here for the latest version of Silverlight." That link simply led back to the download page which resulted
in receiving another copy of the same executable file.
According to my system ( > Control Panel > System ), I'm running "Windows Vista Home Premium", with a "System Type: 64-bit Operating System". I've been using this same Vista PC since Sep 2008 and running Silverlight for
around the past 5 yrs.
? -- Why doe the Silverlight installer code flag my OS as not supported?
? -- Is there a way to get an older version of Silverlight that will run under Vista?
Thanks in advance for any helpful comments.Andy -- Thanks for the link, but I'm not adventurous enough to download from a non-MSFT site.
Besides, since I didn't make any changes to my hardware/software config, I expect a MSFT rep to explain why their two programs suddenly stopped working together and then provide whatever code fix is needed. A phone call to their tech support (predictably)
led to nowhere but a recommendation to purchase one of the company's support offerings (which I declined to pursue). The Silverlight development team appears to participate in these forums, so I'd hope one or more of them offers a realistic solution.
Here's something I forgot to mention in my original post: In several of the threads on this subject (some dating back to 2008!), people have
suggested running IE as the browser vs FireFox or Chrome; however, that idea fails to note that the error msg (Message ID:1518) clearly states that "your operating
system does not support the 64-bit version of Silverlight"; it doesn't say anything about
what browser you're using. -
Using the Android Reader app, why is the signature option greyed out?
I have a client that has enlisted me to create 3 fillable PDF forms. I used FormsCentral to create these fillable forms, then I saved them as PDFs to my Dropbox. I opened the Adobe Reader app on my Tablet, and access the forms. As for the client, they are home builders, and these 3 forms are 3 different stages of the building process. They are using them to interact with the new homeowner. They want to do this on Samsung Note 10.1 tablets with Verizon data. There are 3 issues I am faced with fixing:
1. The signing process is quite a process. Meaning too many clicks to setup and apply a digital signature according to the customer. And that is on a PC, because I am unable to use the "signature" function - the button is greyed out. Why is that?
2. Once we resolve the above issue, then will there be a way to "lock" the form so that the customer's responses and selections are unchangeable? If so, how?
3. Once the form is signed and "locked" (if possible), what is the simplest way to send the form via e-mail? I ask because they want there to be a way to setup the form to e-mail copies to the addresses that are entered into an e-mail field on the form. Sort of "auto-populate" the addresses as well as be able to set a predetermined address (back to their office) so that the results may be sent via mobile instantly upon completion.
I know that is a lot to ask. Your help would be most appreciated!
Thanks in advance, Rob(1) Why is the Signature button greyed out (disabled)?
You used FormsCentral to create fillable forms and exported to PDF. When exporting FormsCentral forms to PDF forms, FormsCentral adds "extended rights" to PDF forms so that users can fill out the PDF forms in Adobe Reader (which is a PDF viewer, not a PDF editor).
The current version (11.5.0) of Adobe Reader for Android does not allow signatures to be added to any "Reader Extended" PDF documents (including forms). We are actively investigating and trying to resolve the problem.
(2) Is there a way to "lock" a PDF form?
You can "flatten" a PDF form after the form has been filled out and signed by a customer. Once flattened, it's not possible to change filled data or signatures. When you try to email a filled PDF form (optionally with a signature), Adobe Reader for iOS will present the E-mail Document dialog with two options: "Send Original Document" and "Send Flattened Copy". You can choose the "Send Flattened Copy" option.
Unfortunately, the feature has not been supported in Adobe Reader for Android yet.
(3) What is the easiest way to send a "flattened" copy via email?
Because the issues 1 & 2 above have not been resolved, you are not able to do this in Adobe Reader for Android. However, you can do this in Adobe Reader for iOS.
First, you need to add a Submit button to your PDF form. I am not sure if you can do this in FormsCentral. But you can use Adobe Acrobat (a paid product) to add a Submit button.
Setting action buttons > Add a submit button
When your customer taps the Submit button in the PDF form, Adobe Reader (for iOS - for now) will present thee same E-mail Document dialog. Once the "Send Flattened Copy" option is selected, Reader will launch the default Mail app and auto-populate email address(es) specified for the Submit button action.

Hello Marlis,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you view the app in the iTunes Store by selecting "View in iTunes" in the link below, under the Information pane you can indicate whether the app is able to be shared via Family Sharing. For the app you are asking about, it does appear Family Sharing is enabled for it.

How does one unlock the screen rotation?
How does one unlock the screen rotation?
If there is a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
My iphone 4 has face time capability but does not have the face time app in settings to turn it on. I have done a restore and it didn't do anything. Can anyone help?
There is no FaceTime app. To initiate FaceTime go the contact page of the person you want to FaceTime in your Contacts app and select FaceTime at the bottom of the screen.

I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have. Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording? If so, how? Step by step needed. Thank you for your time.
Did you remove Quicktime X?
On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above. -
Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive. "Could not complete backup to media share. The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features." What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?
This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).
