When I'm in a single story building that has alot of electronics , tvs , iphones cell phones ect- when I use find my iphone why does it show 3 different addresses as well as streets that are blocks from where I really am?

When going to the gym and launching find my iphone- why does it show 3 different addresses and streets blocks away and then if I move in the building to another area it shows exactly where the phone is?

Because the earth is large and you phone is getting your location from a satellite miles in the sky and you are under a roof.

  • Why does text show differently (vertical alignment) when viewed on a PC than on a Mac?

    The text shows misaligned (different) when viewed on different platforms (Mac or PC)
    The Menu section on this website ~> Menu
    Is there a way around this or a fix it. I was trying to look at the code in Dreamweaver and I did see some weird (>Span<) tags, I'm wondering if it might have to do with it.
    The goal is to align the right side (prices) perfectly. I even had to do the 'tracking' individually to every line. It does work, depending on what platform I'm working on, if I work and publish from a Mac, it would look fine no matter what browser I use, but when viewed on a PC the text gets misaligned. The same happens if I work and publish from a PC, it would show misaligned on a Mac.
    Hope there is a reasonable explanation for this.
    - Thank you,
    Ricardo

    The primary cause of the misalignment is the fact the text is using a "Web Safe" font. A "web safe" font is not a single font. Rather it's a list/stack of fonts for the site visitor's browser to try until it finds one that's available the visitor's computer. That means on one computer the text is in one font (i.e. Arial) and on another computer it's another (i.e. Helvetica) with the subsequent fallout caused by the varying character widths between the two fonts. The best way to reduce this variation between site viewers is to use a Web Font (either an Edge Web Font or a Self-Hosted Web Font).
    The alignment still won't be entirely consistent across browsers (or even versions of browsers), because each browser has it's own text layout engine and the engines do sometime change, but the variation will be radically reduced.

  • I cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4.. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    i cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    I am having the exact same problem with trying to sync my iPad with my computer. To make a long story short, I had to reinstall Windows for my computer and therefore had to reinstall itunes.
    I have done back ups in the past for my ipod touch and other ipods with no problems, but unfortunately I have never been able to back up my iPad. During a sync, the iPad would always disconnect from my computer and it would never finish. it would say the connection was lost, but nothing is wrong with the connection.
    So now I have over 100 apps and thousands of pictures that I am afraid will be deleted if I run the sync in itunes. I have tried to transfer purchases and it goes through the list of apps, but nothing is ever transferred.
    Any help would be appreciated. I am not interested in jailbreaking my iPad to solve this problem. There should be a fix for this and I want to upgrade to ios 4.3 as the original poster. Please help

  • Scratches on the back of my MacBook Pro, are these from where they machined the aluminium or was this a worker at the factory being careless?

    There are lots of uniform scratches that are evenly spaced on on the back of my MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), are these from where they machined the aluminium or was this a worker at the factory being careless? They are pretty light scratches and sometimes not visible, has anyone got the same on their laptop?
    Thanks in advance!

    There's no way to know the reason why they are there, but it looks like a human mistake.
    You have 14 days to return your Mac if you bought it from Apple, so do it and get a new one. This is what you should do if you have any problem

  • I misplaced my iPhone and used Find My iPhone to track it down. It shoudl me a Google type may with my current location and the location of the iPhone; it was located in a ]heavily wooded area a few miles from my home. That was incorrect, Why?

    I misplaced my iPhone and used Find My iPhone to locate it. The map showed my home and the apparent location of the iPhone which was five miles south of my home in a heavily wooded area. It turns out that was an incorrect location as I eventually found my iPhone in my office three miles in the other direction. Can anyone provide m with an explanation for the discrepancy and inaccuracy?

    I Lost my phone at the office building with more than 10different company and thousands of employees. since no one returned the phone and the device was already turned off i tried logging in and use find my iphone to send a message. But after days since no one is returning it i tried putting passcode on lock mode... And who would have thought that after a week someone will call me and told me that she will return the phone. But unfortunately i forgot the lock code so i cant use it. I dont want to restore it since my photos and videos are not sync to my itunes. if only theres a way that it would only just require my apple id and not the 4 digit code

    There's no way to unlock it without restoring it.

  • Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    When you open Firefox in Safe Mode, it automatically disables your custom settings, themes, and add-ons. THOSE changes are temporary.
    However, if you click any of the boxes underneath the line, "You can make some or all of these changes permanent", and then choose "Make Changes and Restart", everything you checked will be forever changed, even when you start Firefox again in 'normal' mode. [See attached image for a preview of the Safe Mode options].
    To be clear:
    1. If you check any of the boxes but do NOT select "Make changes and restart", those things will not be changed at all in safe mode.
    2. If you select any of the boxes and you DO select "Make changes and restart", you will permanently lose any of the items you checked (bookmarks (except for backups), user preferences, etc.).
    If you performed the action in step 2 above, you will only be able to restore those things if you have a previously created back-up of your Mozilla Profiles folder (not the same as the Firefox program folder).
    Hope this helps.
