Is there a way to keep Text2Speech locked in front on my screen at all times?

I want to be able to access Text2Speech at all times.  It would be great to have it locked in the front of my screen at all times, even when I switch spaces.  Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Hey Everyone,
DISCOVERED THE ANSWER!!!!!
I recently got one of these fun little squares and I just figured out (what seems to be) a simple way to keep the clock face on. (Though, I certainly agree with the comments about the ultimate impracticality of doing so for a long time, as the the battery in this thing only has so much to give.)  I'm running the latest update on it.
This seemed too easy to believe when I did it! No need to keep it empty of music! No need to keep it in Fitness running! I think this works because the clock face, stop watch, and timer are all in the same segment of it's little nano operating system.
If you turn on the stopwatch then switch back to the clock face, it will stay fully illuminated as long as the stopwatch is running. I think the limit on the stopwatch is 24 hours, but my guess is your battery is going to be dead long before that. I'd recommend setting the brightness super low if you're going to do this.
Anyway, problem solved if you want to keep it lit for however long you like. (of course you have to sacrifice the stopwatch)
Enjoy!!

  • Is there any reason that my lock keeps unlocking in my network settings? Is there any way to keep it locked? It sure is inconvenient when I have to reboot to get back on the internet and re-lock that lock.

    You could try changing the settings in System Preferences/Security & Privacy/General/Advanced/Require an Administator password to access locked preferences
    But this will affect all Preference settings.

  • Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up every time an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?

    Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up everytime an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?  This is killing my battery, but also is kinda the whole point of the notification center in my mind.

    This is something I've been wondering. I am a bit like you, I like being able to have a glance at emails or Facebook updates without having to log in, and I think it would be great to be able to turn off the notification switching the screen on, especially for emails as I do get a lot, and Facebook, but I somehow doubt it is possible.
    I am currently monitoring how much this eats up my battery charge. On a normal day, after an overnight charge, I would probably still have 30%-40% left when I leave work in the evening. Today, I was down to 48% by lunchtime, where I've usually got a good 60-70% left... Might have to turn email notifications off on lock screen until it's possible to have them appearing in the list without flashing me...

  • HT4970 Is there a way to keep a reminder on my lock screen - and counted on the bubble of the reminder app -  until the task is checked off?

    Is there a way to keep a reminder notification on my lock screen - and be counted on the bubble of the Reminder app - until the task is checked off in the Reminder app?

    Let me clarify my question regarding the Reminder App. Lets say I set a reminder  for a task for today at 2PM. At 2PM my phone sounds and  I pull out my phone and on the lock screen is a notification of my reminder.  However, lets say I dont complete the task that I was suppose to do at 2PM  and, therefore I have NOT put a check mark in the reminder app box that the task was completed). What I want is for the notification on my lock screen to keep hounding me until I put a check mark in the reminder item. I want the bubble in the Reminder App on my home screen to contain the cound of UNCOMPLETED tasks (e.g. tasks that do not have a check mark in them).
    Is there an option in the Reminder App to do this (e.g. the "dont stop hounding me" option) ? It all seems so logical. Someone must have asked how do this before but I couldnt find it.

  • When I listen to music on my iPhone and pause it, if I come back to it later, the playlist has started over. I have a 4S running on iOS 7.0.4. Is there any way to keep this from happening so that my playlist will start off where I last was?

  • My daughter has an iPod touch using my apple ID, I just purchased an iPhone with the same ID. Is there a way to keep my stuff seperate from her ipod but still share the iTunes account?

    My daughter has an iPod touch using my apple ID, I just purchased an iPhone with the same ID. Is there a way to keep my stuff seperate from her ipod but still share the iTunes account? I was looking through the photo section on my iPhone and found pics my daughter has taken from her iPod. I do not want my pics, emails, etc to show up on her iPod. Is there a way to stop this from happening or do I have to create a different Apple ID for her to use instead?

    If you have iOS 8 on all devices then:
    If under 13 years create a new ID for her by:
    Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support
    The use family sharing to share apps
    http://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/family-sharing/
    Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
    If underage and not i)S on all devices then you have to create an ID for here under your name and supervise it use:
    Create a NEW account using these instructions so yo do not have to use a credit card.
    Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    More details of how:
    http://ipadhelp.com/ipad-help-tips-tricks/how-to-get-free-apps-from-the-app-stor e-without-a-credit-card/
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently?  Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my device?

    How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently?  Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my actual phone?  I'm concerned that the sync feature will remove the pictures from the cloud when they are deleted from my phone.
    Thanks for the help.

    Can I back up iPhoto to the cloud via some apple service (iCloud)
    No
    or do I need to use something else?  If so, any recommendations?
    An external hard disk:
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • Is there a way to keep my Mac Pro On the network without sleeping???

    i'll try to explain this the best way I can. I often wish to access my Mac Pro over the network either for file sharing, or for use with Apple Remote Desktop. The problem is after about 20-30 minutes, the Mac Pro sleeps and disappears from the network. Is there a way to keep it on the network without turnig off sleep mode? I really don't want the hard drives working 24/7 if possible....
    Thanks in advance!
    JPT
    P.S. I'm sure it doesn't matter, but just in case..I'm using the new Apple Airport Extreme base station.

    In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, check the 'Wake for Ethernet network administrator access' checkbox under the Options tab, and then use an application such as this one to send it the signal.

  • My husband and I both have iPads and somehow when they were setup the both we're setup using the same email I'd address. When I go to delete and rename one iPad it says all info and pictures will be erased from my iPad. Is there a way to keep the info iPa

    You can go to Settings/iCloud and delete the account, then create a new iCloud account.  You can still use the same account for the app store though.

  • Is there a way to keep the search bar from unfolding downward?

    I just updated to FF 34 and see that when I start to type something into the search bar it now unfolds downward, taking up about seven lines worth of space -- even though I have search suggestions disabled. The problem with this is that the unfolding covers up part of the urls, tab and top-of-webpage text that I sometimes reference (or even copy-n-paste) to guide my search-term selection. I usually use only my default search engine, so the disadvantages of this "obscuring" definitely outweigh any advantages from being able to more easily select an alternate search engine on-the-fly. In fact, one reason I used the search bar to begin with is to *avoid* the kind of unfolding behavior search engine pages often have. But it's actually more intrusive here, because it is covering up more pertinent text. Is there any way to keep this "unfolding" behavior from happening automatically when using the search bar in FF 34? Thanks

    You can revert to the older Search Bar scheme like this.
    Open up '''about:config''' ''(typed in the Location Bar)''
    Right-click and toggle this preference to '''''false'''''
    '''browser.search.showOneOffButtons'''
    Then restart Firefox.

  • Is there a way to keep unread email at the top of the list?

    Is there a way to keep unread email at the top of the list?  I do not delet email after it's read so I end up with many 'read' email between the un-read email.  Is there a way to cluster the un-read email at the top of the list?
    Thank you,
    Patrick

    Just make a smart mailbox (unread mail) and leave it in the sidebar.

    I know I am responding to my own thread, but I an SOOOO disgusted with Apple right now.
    The new iOS 7 was the lead story on CNN today... and it wasn't positive. Easy to see why, it's a graphics disaster. It is ugly, difficult to read, doesn't interface aesthetically with the iPhone 4S, and gives everyone in America vertigo. Either fix the appearance, or find some way to allow us to roll back to our previous iOS. Do so quickly, or this life-long Apple customer [circa 1978] will be moving on. If this represents shades of what is coming with OS Maverick, I am petrified. Further, I am a GM of a chain of newspapers and websites in the Austin, Texas area. I will be ripping out a scathing editorial. The notion that we can't roll back from something millions of us hate is despicable. I'm giving you one week. Be sure I am not alone.

  • Is there any way to keep the flash from going off when you receive a text or other notification?

    I have an iphone 4s.  Is there any way to keep the flash from going off when you receive a text or other notification?  I keep it next to my bed at night and keep thinking there is lightning when something comes thru.  LOL

    Go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn LED Flas for Alerts to Off.
