IOS 7 back ground makes it difficult to read the text.  How can I change it in mail and messages?

HI,
iOS 7 back ground makes it difficult to read the text.  I know I can't change it in mail and messages, but Apple really needs to allow some customization.  This is really difficult to read for older eyes.

yeah I agree with all you guys statements, the color scheme on IOS 7 *****,
I am having to constantly turn on off on off on off  "invert color" mode just to switch between
the home screen, typing, and reading text messages, its an absolute pain!!
I never had any of this trouble in IOS 6.
What they SHOULD do, is make 2 different color schemes
one LIGHT color scheme,
and one DARK color scheme, for those using "invert colors" frequently.
See, what Apple doesn't seem to understand is, when you turn on "invert colors",
the lock screen turns bright WHITE, so you have to turn invert colors OFF just to read the lock screen,
then back ON when you want to type an email, read a text message, etc etc, then turn it off again when
you want to play a game.
and see, after awhile, when you switch invert colors on off on off after so  many times, it drains on the devices resources, & you have to reboot the device to get accessibility options working again.   I have to reboot the device several times a day now just because of that, when its just a simple fix of adding a darker color scheme as a 2nd or alternative option. 
I mean, even as a normal sighted person, turning on invert colors is annoying when your at the lock screen or playing a game, think about those of us who depend upon it just to read text on the screen..  VoiceOver has the smilar issues when you have to turn it off on off on all the time it drains the system resources of the phone also,
so I agree completely...
but ya know, they don't listen to us...  cuz its an option they don't use, so they don't understand... If they used that option for even 5 seconds, they'd understand what we're talking about....  What Apple should do is hire one of us as a beta tester to help them test out these types of issues,  from one of us like myself who knows a thinkg or two about accessibility options of the phone.
I've been an Apple idevice fan for years, but, IOS 7 was a major disappointment in the accessibility arena..
kind regards,
Tom

  • I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    You may want to keep Reader. You may want to select Acrobat as your default, but be able to click on a PDF (or PDF link) to open in Reader when needed. There are likely some PDFs that will not open correctly in AA 7 because of new features folks add. Just because it opens in Reader XI does not mean it is in the new format, but just that is the default opening you have. To tell the type of file, you have to open the PDF and check the properties (ctrl-D) and check Description>PDF version.

  • I have been having to change my email messages to plain text alternative in order to read the font.  Can I change the default somewhere?

    I have been having to change my email messages to plain text alternative in order to read the font.  Can I change the default somewhere?

    Maybe I need to try a different route.  I was able to change the font settings for the general mail.  I am now thinking it is a problem with Safari or the internet browser.  I am seeing the bubble font only on messages that contain pictures ~ When I click to view the full message in the browser, the font changes to a readable font.  

  • How can i change my apple id and password, i have 2 ipads, when i upgrade the 2nd ipad for the new iOS 5, i apparently synch, including the apple ID of the first one, now I need to change ID on the 2nd?

    2 ipads were upgraded on itunes on the same laptop, apparently synch and picked up the apple ID and password on the 2nd ipad, how can I change the ID and password..thanks
    I created a new one but let say i go to apps store and install app, it will show dialog box with the 1st apple ID.

    If these are both yours on the same account then give them different names so iTunes can tell them apart.
    If the sync was an accident then do a "wipe" of the other iPad and set it up as new under a different ID and make sure iTunes knows it's a different accout, that is set it up as one, before you begin the sync.

  • My Excel files were imported as read only files how can I change these

  • How to make an applet to read the Text file present inside a jar

    Hi All,
    I have writen one applet named ReadFile.java which reads a text file present in the same directory and does some manipulation of text file contents.
    The applet code runs successfully when i run the applet in command prompt like
    {color:#ff0000}*java ReadFile*{color}
    And i am getting the needed results.
    Then i made a jar file with the applet code and text file as
    {color:#ff0000}*jar cvf rf.jar ReadFile.class File1.txt*{color}
    Then i have inlcuded this applet inside a html file as
    {color:#ff0000}*<applet code= "ReadFile.class" width= "500" height= "300" archive = "rf.jar" ></applet>*{color}
    after this when i load the html file, the applet code is not executed fully. Its throwing FileNotFoundException: File1.txt.
    Applet is not recognizing trhe text file present inside the jar file.
    Can any body explain me how to overcome this problem. Any setting needs to be done for making the applet indicate the presence of Text file inside the jar file.

    what code in your applet gets the text file and reads it? are you using getResource or something similar?

  • Ever since the last Firefox upgrade installed, when I go to Wikipedia most, but not all, of the links and titles (books, movies, songs, etc.)are in something that looks like Zapf Chancery font. It is very difficult to read... how do i change it?

    It never looked like that before. The cursive font shows up on every page of wikipedia, only when I use Firefox as my browser. I have gone to the same site on Safari and it is fine there. I have emptied my cache to no avail.

    Thanks for your help. I followed your link to a similar question/reply and just decided to deactivate the Zapfino font. It fixed that part of the problem but there is still some smaller type in a different cursive font (Apple Chancery like but that's not it). Can't figure out what it is in order to disable it but i think I can at least live with that one.

  • Why do my vector files rasterize when I make a contact sheet in Bridge? How can I change quality?

    I am trying to make multiple vector files (Adobe Illustrator) into a PDF contact sheet. In doing this through the Output function of Bridge, the vector files are rasterized into a fuzzy, low resolution versions. I'm able to change the quality of the PDF itself; however, that does not affect how the vector files are rasterized. I can't seem to find any way to change this. I can make a contact sheet in InDesign or rasterize these things myself in Photoshop, but I thought Bridge was suppose to help "bridge" some of these functions and save some time. Has anyone found a workaround or some hidden quality box that I'm missing?

  • Do any of you have trouble reading the text on the 15" MBP?

    Does the 1440x900 resolution make it difficult to read the text on the screen?

    Not for me, but my eyes are good at close range for someone in his 60s. Those who are more farsighted and need reading glasses for close work may have more trouble.
    The things to be concerned about are the menus, dialog boxes, and other Finder and OS elements that can't be enlarged except by reducing the display resolution, which blurs everything on the display. In most applications' windows, you can easily change the font size or zoom in on the page as a whole to suit yourself. Ultimately, whether you're comfortable with the screen resolution at its native (maximum) setting is a purely personal decision that only you can make. I strongly advise you NOT to buy any computer whose display is uncomfortable to use at its native setting, because you will be looking at a blurry screen ALL the time if you have to use any LCD display at a non-native resolution.

  • All of my links on websites show up with a dark red background which makes it difficult to read. why?

    Where ever a link shows on any website, the background of the link is red and the text is blue. It's difficult to make out the text. How can I change the background to white like it is on all other browsers.
    Dan

    If the background of links is red then that is probably caused by an extension like SEO or SearchStatus that has the option set to highlight noFollow links.<br />
    You can check the options of such an extension.
    You can click the icon on the Status bar to open the SearchStatus options and un-tick "Highlight NoFollow Links"<br />
    See http://www.quirk.biz/searchstatus/
    If that didn't work then you need to check for other extensions.<br />

    How do I make just a section of a photo opaque in Pages? So that I an read the text I'm placing over it.

    If you're asking about Pages for iOS (this forum is for iWork for iOS), I don't see an option to make part of an image transparent.
    If you're asking about Pages for your Mac, you can use the instant alpha tool to make the background transparent. There is a separate forum for Pages on the Mac here.
