JCC Apple/Mac discussion

Wait. IS THE VIBRATE DIFFERENT FROM THE 4? WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN REPORTED?!!!!!!

 

lol
I'm not saying it's an earth shattering change. But it does show how much apple look into products, if even a minor function like that is improved on. And considering I'm on my phone for half the day for one thing or another, it's a good change.

Anyway Vodafone finally transferred my number over, so today will be the first day I will be exclusively on the new phone, rather than switching between the two.

 

I wasn't being sarcastic. Now I have to buy this phone.

 

Now only if I could get itunes to install on my laptop and my iphone will actually be worth the upgrade I used. I had to use my wife's itunes to do the contacts which is stupid.

 

Anyone's have the rattle?

 

All my iPhones since the 4 (we have had 5 in our house) have a feint rattle, it's the compass isn't it? You can barely hear it

 

My 3GS was rattle free, but anyway this particular rattle seems to come from the camera. It's very noticeable when the device is placed on a hard surface - even gently. I know it's the camera because (and I didn't work this out myself!) if you open the camera and focus on a distance object the rattle is still present (just tap the casing), but if you near-focus the rattle disappears.

Seems a bit odd.

 

not getting that tbh

 

Think yourself lucky. Seems quite a few 4S's have the same issue.

 

probably not even 1% considering 1000 blog posts dont even come close to a blip when they sold 4 million in one weekend. If you have a problem with it just get it changed at an apple store, theyre usually ok with things like that in my experience.

 

I scratched my phone and they replaced it for free. No Apple Care.

Same with iPad.

IT'S AWESOEMEMEMDE

 

hah yeah. My sister had a massive dent in her ipad, and it kept crashing (she caused the dent). It was like 10 months after she bought it, but they gave her a brand new one

One of my chargers for macbook burned down (their fault) they replaced it.

My macbook (old white one) case cracked like 3 times, and they replaced it.

and other stuffs

 

Still can't install iTunes on my computer. Windows 7 64 bit piece of garbage.

 

I've pretty much given up. The only thing I can try now is re-installing windows but I never got windows CD's with this laptop.

 

What errors are you getting?

Also there would be some way to make system restore disks for your laptop.

 

I'm burning the DVD now. I just had to Google it. After talking to Applecare nerds for an hour it's something in my registry. Toshiba told me to reinstall windows so that's where I am at.

 

Well after a clean install of windows I was able to install iTunes finally. Now I can finally put music on my phone.

 

The Most Anal CEO Ever

 

Interesting article about what Apple should do with its $82 billion in cash reserves.

None of that makes the slightest bit of sense to me.

All Apple needs to do to dominate consumer electronics for the next decade is create an Apple TV. A giant iPad that hangs on the wall, integrated with the app store. They'll dominate the video game industry for a decade. They can completely re-imagine cable tv schedule interfaces the way they re-imagined voicemail menus for the iPhone. They can ship each tv with a redesigned iPod touch that doubles as a remote centered around activities the way the high end Harmony Remotes work.

 

Has anyone had any success in upgrading logic boards themselves? I just inherited a PowerBook G4, and it's in awesome shape but really could do with a new logic board. It's so far off warranty that it isn't even funny, and if it doesn't work out, I'm fine with trashing the computer.

 

I might order my 4s today as a belated birthday present to myself. I was waiting until we just happened to be near a ln Apple store but they didn't have the 16GB at the one we walked into yesterday.

 

Finally got an iPad2 a few weeks ago, really loving it so far. But where are the Apple Weather and Stock apps?

 

One of the biggest things I was worried about when I switched to an iPhone was not being able to watch flash videos. I downloaded Skyfire web browser today and it's awesome. I highly recommend it if you watch a bunch of videos or streaming content on your phone.
