2.0 software on Edge iPhone turned it into garbage

What is Apple doing? A once great phone has turned into garbage thanks to 2.0.
1. Touchpad has crappy response - tap and tap and tap and tap, oh is something about to happen, no , tap then tap then tap - give up and reboot. (Reboot, is that a PC term that Apple had begun to emulate?)
2. View web, turn it landscape, web stays portrait.
3. Try to open application (native, not third party) - slow as a constipated gorilla.
4. e-mail tries to connect but can not even when using Wifi
5. type text in web address bar, or SMS or email - lags longer than an 80 year old woman at the grocery counter looking for pennies to pay for her milk.
6. Did Apple do this on purpose to force people into buying the 3G version? To force idiots like me who flocked to buy the edge version on its' debut day, the same day Apple probably decided to screw the public by planning the 3G version, and the price cut of the original. To force us into shelling out another $199 to buy the 3G. I'll look hard at Sprint's "Iphone killer" first.
7. Individual songs skip, fading in and out, bringing back memories of 45's and an old diamond needle
8. Individual songs repeats, without the repeat option selected. Let me bring out the Victrola and listen to my grandma's 33's and 78's
8. Is Apple's new ad line going to be, "Hello I'm a Mac...Hello I'm a PC who used to be a Mac."
9. Apply, Rinse, Repeat - didn't solve anything. I restored the phone to original settings, set it up as a new phone, reloaded songs, contact, calendar and still a phone unworthy of being called an apple product.
10. Apple - stop screwing with loyal customers. We'll only take it for so long.

That must be something specific to your Edge phone. When I upgraded my Edge phone I did not have any problems whatsoever. All of the native applications seemed to be faster not slower. The downloaded applications worked great. I did not have any problems with the landscape vs portrait on web or any of the applications that use it.
It sounds like you have a hardware problem and not a software problem. I would suggest that you call Applecare and tell them about it or if you are close to an Apple store, take it to the genius bar. You are not experiencing the normal performance of a 2.0 upgrade on the Edge iPhone.

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, put it into iTunes Library and convert it to an .mp3. How do I get the voice memos from my phone? I can't seem to move them out of the Devices folder, no matter how much I try to copy and paste or drag and drop

I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, turn it into and .mp3, and email it. My iPhone shows up under "Devices" in my iTunes but doesn't allow me to move the voice memo files I see sitting there into my Library no matter how much copying and pasting or dragging and dropping I try to do.
Also, I need to convert the file to an .mp3.
How come no voice memo files show up when I go into my iPhone via My Computer? All it shows are the videos and pictures in the DCIM folder, but not the voice memos. Is there another way to access the voice memos other than through iTunes?

Email it to yourself, then save the file and then see if you can convert it to MP3.

Turning Photos into Paintings

Which software is better at turning images into paintings? Adobe Photoshop CS6 or Adobe Illustrator?

Why make it a competition? They're both better! ;-)
I would suggest it depends on what you intend to express (including output production), and your comfort level with the applications. Russell Brown has a video showing ways to make more traditional media referenced painting with Photoshop CS6 here: http://av.adobe.com/russellbrown/PaintingAssistant_SM.mp4
Illustrator also have some great tools for making natural media brushstrokes. Here's demo from AI CS5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMVCjMm2xWo

Created animation in flash turn it into a rollover

So I have created a great little one second animation for my instagram Icon and it runs perfect. My question is does anyone know how I can bring it into adobe edge and turn it into a rollover button so when you rollover it the entire animation plays?

Hi Alek
You can directly generate sprite sheet of your animation from Flash Pro.You can generate the same from the library panel.
Let us know If that helped.

I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S. It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S, 16 GB to the most recent version (8.1?). I don't know what I was updating from, because I can't access that, but it was whatever was installed on it (I got it about a year ago, so probably 6.something).
It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync with my macbook plus, which is what I have always sync'd it to. (I backed it up and sync'd it right before I tried to update the software.)
Since it originally froze almost 3 hours ago, it shows a white screen with the apple on it and a line underneath. When I try to sync with my laptop, it says it needs me to enter a passcode on the phone, which I can't enter because the screen is frozen. So I'm unable to access the iPhone portion of iTunes.
I have tried to turn it off, with no luck. I have tried rebooting my laptop and syncing, but I still get the same result.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I really wanted to wait to update the software, but I was having internet connectivity issues for the past 3 weeks, and Sprint suggested updating the phone's software.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. If still nothing, connect to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, iPhone may turn ON itself. If still nothing keep on charger and Reset. It can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger.

The screen on my iPhone turned into an xray like display. With the assistance from Apple Support, I Upgraded the software version. But still did not resolved the issue.

Error -3259 is a network timeout error, usually. This article might help:

Long list of "software" problems on iphone 4.

My wife and I have iphone 4s, purchased about a year apart (I got mine as a cheaper leftover after the 4S came out.) My phone is fine but hers is having a long list of weird problems nothing seems to permanently fix. It is about 2 1/2 years old, and covered under a product replacement plan from Future Shop, where we got it. (Our city just got it's first Apple Store over the holidays.)
The problem is all of her issues seem to be software or "network" related, yet all the common fixes/tests are not yielding any results.
The biggest issue with the phone is with iMessage. I know it is normal for the occasional iMessage to send as an SMS instead, especially if there is a hiccup in the network. The thing is, hers does this all the time, sometimes mid-conversation. If I send her 3 messages in quick succession, she might get #1 and #3 as iMessages but #2 wont appear until 15 minutes later as a text message--making trying to converse via message really annoying. It has done this for several months now, getting progressively worse. We have 3 friends who are our neighbors in our apartment building. We can send a group iMessage to everyone, everyone will get it as an iMessage, but she will get it as a text, usually anywhere from 10-20 minutes later. One of our friends can't even send her an iMessage--he will only ever get the green "send as text" option for the send button, even if they are in the same room, and connected to the same wireless network. When another friend in the same apartment tries to iMessage her from her iMac, it tells her "that is not a valid number for iMessage"--yet it clearly is, because iMessage DOES work...sometimes. All 5 of us are on the same network, Virgin Mobile, so it is not the network--none of us have any problems except for her. It is frustrating because during the day we are both at work and don't have coinciding breaks and sometimes I NEED her to get a message, and it is bad now to the point where I can't be guaranteed she got my message until I get a response back later on. We have not tried turning "send as SMS" off yet, because we don't mind the phone sending an iMessage as a text when iMessage is not available--what the problem is is the delay, the likelihood she may never even *get* the message, (sometimes it doesn't send at all.) and the fact that it will still do this even on a strong full signal or wifi (the wifi network in our apartment is fine, our computers, xbox, 3DS's and my phone never have any issues.) We can try it, but my worry is that if something is wrong with iMessage, turning off SMS will mean she'll never get some of these at all. (more often than this happens as it is, mind you)
Her safari is also extremely laggy, which seems to hint at a connection problem, maybe.
The phone has been reset 3 times. Once, we reset it and restored from backup. No dice. Then, future shop reset it from the phone itself while they had it over night trying to duplicate the issue. Still no dice. Finally, on the advice of a future shop tech, who said they can't do anything unless we can prove a hardware failure of some kind, advised resetting from itunes and NOT restoring from backup. So we did that--the phone was completely reset as "new phone", and nothing has been restored from backup, only contacts from iCloud. Right now the phone has only 2 apps re-downloaded on it, and a few songs, and it did it again earlier today. So, still no luck. (It hopefully goes without saying we have verified all her software updates are done and everything is fully up to date.)
After the reset, a new issue surfaced--it was vibrating randomly. After troubleshooting, we discovered she was getting vibrate alerts from email, despite the fact that email push notifications are OFF and her email app was closed at the time. She had to turn off vibration and sound for email to get it to stop. Now, maybe that is what she has to do, but my iphone has push notifications off as well--but sound and vibrate still on--but will only beep/vibrate if the mail app is open. Otherwise, I don't get the notification. (Maybe my phone is broken, and hers is doing what it should for once? LOL) The thing is, she never touched that setting the first time she got the phone, and has NEVER received vibrate alerts for email. Why suddenly after a full reset would things be enabled that were never on in the first place?
So I am stumped. It is a huge inconvenience to keep resetting this stupid thing, and we don't really want to pay the genius bar to look at it, but I can't help but feel like these recurring problems can't be software related when we've had this reset so many times--and it's not "network" issues because she is the only one. We have tried checking the diagnostic record for panic.plist (wishful thinking I guess), read through a ton of posts here, and tried what we could... any further advice/what we can try? Is there any chance this IS hardware, something corrupt in the phone memory/storage? An issue with the receiver? If so, how do we prove it? Can the genius bar scan it somehow?

If you have an Apple Store in town, setup a genius bar appointment. The genius bar tech should look at the phone and try to diagnose the problem free of charge. They may not want to fix it free of charge, but they should perform their diagnosis and tell you what they find for free.
It sounds to me like her iPhone is losing its connection to the Apple iMessage servers. You might try actually turning off iMessage snd signing out of iCloud on her iPhone, then after a restart of the iPhone sign back into iCloud, then turn iMessage back on. There is no guarnatee that this will resolve her problems, but it might help. If her iPhone is not connected to external power, and it has been more than 10-15 minutes since she last used it, it has probably turned off the wifi radio, and will be depending upon cellular data for the iMessage traffic to flow. This could easily account for the delays she is seeing, and even it dropping back to SMS, especially if you have poor cellular data coverage. If this is the case, then getting something like a Mophie Juice Pack Air for her iPhone might help, as it would allow her iPhone to be connected to external power (the Juice Pack) thus keepig the wifi radio on more.

I tried to update the iTunes software on my iPhone today, and now the phone won't work unless I "restore" it. I don

I tried to update my iTunes software on my iPhone today and plugged it into my laptop. Before the process was complete, I received an error message saying I had to "restore" my iPhone before it would work with iTunes. Even more importantly, and troublesome, is the fact that now my phone won't even work at all. I can't turn the iPhone on, and all the screen shows is the iTunes icon with a picture of the white power cord. Can someone advise if there is a way to update the software without restoring my iPhone, which will cause me to lose everything on the phone (much of which I have not backed up yet)? Last, is my stuff already backed up by iCloud? I believe I have sellected that option on my phone, but honestly, have never really understood what iCloud is or does. Thanks in advance for any assistance/advice.

why dont someone answering gthis ******* problem..

Cannot restore my iPod touch 3g "Software for this iPhone is not currently"

Hello,
II have a big problem, I cannot restore my iPod touch.
I cannot get anything to show on the screen, it seems stuck in DFU mode. When I connect it to my pc, iTunes show this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
"Check for update" is grayed. Capacity/serial/Software show N/A.
iTunes detects it as an iPhone but it's an iPod touch.
I tried 2 different computers.
I tried to download firmware and shift restore them, tried many, none work, telling it is not compatible.
When I click restore simply, it show this message "Software for this iPhone is not currently available".
I tried different ipod cable too, no luck.
The only way I can see something on the screen is with greenpoison (note that before this, I never tried nor wanted to jailbreak, but I tried a lot of things since 2 days including this, but no luck), so with green poison, I can get the iTunes + cable logo on the screen, but it won't restore either.
my iPod is just 1 year old, and 32gb, I'm rly frustrated and sad about all this :S, I tried lot of things, searched a lot, nothing work.
This happened when I came back from the gym, in my car, the iPod would not turn on, I tried again at home, and after some home/power, it turned on, I took a shower and when I came back, it was the same problem but since, it never turned on again.
Any help would be rly appreciated, thanks.

If its stuck in DFU mode, just hold the Power/Sleep button and the Home button until the device resets. If your unable to access the springboard, you might need to RECOVER your iPod Touch using the Recovery method, not DFU mode.

The iPhone and iPod Touch is very similar, except the iPod Touch doesn't have phone capabilities.

If you never Jailbroken, then why is greenpois0n installed? Did you buy this from a previous owner?

While updating the software of my iphone 4 it just stop and restart and keep doing this

While upgrading the software of my iphone 4 it just stop updating and the apple screen appear then it just turn on and off on the apple screen..i try the sleep mode and turn it off but when it turn on it goes on the apple screen and restart on and off..tell me what to do please....i try everything reseting while conecting through usb etc..

Your screen is probably broken in that area and the "ink spot" you think you see is LCD liquid on the inside of the panel that's leaked and spread out.

My software was up to date, I did a restore and a restart. My iphone kept turning off in the middle of the restore so it took a while. Nothing seemed to work. I left it charging over night and it did finally charge.
