A few questions about my iPod Touch 3G

The first question is:
When I browse my Music Library in my iPod why can I not see additional information on the songs? Like Year, Bitrate, etc. I assure you I have a very organised Library and the information that I mentioned above, I can see them in my iTunes on my Mac.
The second question is:
When I play music on my iPod there are certain Apps/Games that when I start them they stop the music playack. This is really frustrating. What I am looking for is for a way (Like throught Settings or something) so under any cercumstances the Music won't stop whatever App or Game I start.
Thank you for the help.

No, that info is not available on the Touch.

I could be wrong but I don't think there is a way to do this.

A few questions about the iPod Touch

Okay so I'm thinking about getting one of these because friends have recommended them and I have the money. First off I bought a 2nd gen ipod nano off ebay a couple of months ago but lost everything on my pc so I'll have to replace all of the songs before I can sync it. Does this happen with the ipod touch? Or are they actually stored on it? Also, what are the best features of the ipod touch over the nano? And is it really worth it? Another friend has an iphone and said I should touches are crap and I should get an iphone because they're so much better, but they cost like 3x more than touches. Why are iphones so much better? Help is appreciated.

Does what happen?
Are you blaming the loss of files on your PC on the iPod? You should always backup your PC's files whether or not you have an iPod.

Of course the songs are actually stored on the iPod, how else would you be able to carry them around with you and play music?
vedderfan94 wrote:

Touch screen and apps.

Your call.

The Touch does not contain a cell phone, camera, GPS, or compass but otherwise essentially the same as an iPhone and running the same O/S.

Few questions about iPhone vs Touch

Okay so i'm thinking of getting an iPod Touch but since I have AT&T already I might get an iPhone instead. But a few things are keeping me undecided.
I know that you need to activate your iPhone and from reading a few things on this website it says that the store you buy it from does it. I already have a wireless contract with AT&T, so do I need to pay some kind of activation fee or can I just stick my SIM card into it.
Also I want to make sure that I can still use my iPhone as a normal iPod if I were to cancel my contract with AT&T. Now I ready on this website that you just need to get the SIM card in your phone that was used to activate it and you should be able to fix it, is this correct?
Now if it is correct what if my SIM card messes up or something? My mom and dad both had their SIM cards go haywire within 24 hours of each other. How can I use it then?
Last, I have been hearing problems about 3G vs WiFi, like youtube going slow when on WiFi but perfect on 3G. Does this problem still exist? Is it fixable? How easy is it to switch from 3G to just WiFi or to basically shut off 3G? I do not pay for a data plan so I do not need to end up with a $200 bill because I accidentally used 3G instead of WiFi.
Last question, can you still use the iPhone like you can the iPod for listening to music in your car and still receive phone calls with no problems?
So what are the pros and cons vs iTouch vs iPhone?

I know that you need to activate your iPhone and from reading a few things on this website it says that the store you buy it from does it. I already have a wireless contract with AT&T, so do I need to pay some kind of activation fee or can I just stick my SIM card into it.
How much will I pay for iPhone 3G?
If you are upgrade eligible and your account is in good standing, you will pay $199 for 8GB (black) and $299 for 16GB (black or white). Two-year contract required.
If you are not currently eligible, you may have the option to purchase an early upgrade priced at $399 for 8GB (black) or $499 for 16GB (black or white). Two-year contract required.
In the future, AT&T may offer a no-commitment option of $599 for 8GB and $699 for 16GB.
Is there an upgrade fee?
Yes. There is an $18 upgrade fee which will be billed to your account.
Also I want to make sure that I can still use my iPhone as a normal iPod if I were to cancel my contract with AT&T. Now I ready on this website that you just need to get the SIM card in your phone that was used to activate it and you should be able to fix it, is this correct?
If you were to Cancel your contract please remember terms and conditions apply for early termination. Once De-activated you will not be able to fully update your iPhone when an iPhone update is released as it requires an active AT&T SIM card to confirm account information and unlock the iPhone for full use.
Now if it is correct what if my SIM card messes up or something? My mom and dad both had their SIM cards go haywire within 24 hours of each other. How can I use it then?
You need an active AT&T SIM card to be able to re-activate an iPhone after a Restore and or Update of the OS. De-activated SIM cards will not work.
Last, I have been hearing problems about 3G vs WiFi, like youtube going slow when on WiFi but perfect on 3G. Does this problem still exist? Is it fixable? How easy is it to switch from 3G to just WiFi or to basically shut off 3G? I do not pay for a data plan so I do not need to end up with a $200 bill because I accidentally used 3G instead of WiFi.
Switching back and fourth is pretty easy. The moment you leave a WiFi zone range it will hop onto at&t network automatically. Walk back into range of a WiFi Zone you connected to before and it will auto connect for you. Like when you leave and come back home.
iPhone comes with a $30 unlimited data plan. So you will not go over your data usage only SMS usage if you do not have a plan to cover your usage.
So what are the pros and cons vs iTouch vs iPhone?
Phone comes with a monthly bill and a contract, iPod Touch does not.

General Questions about the iPod Touch

Hello,
I'm considering buying a new iPod touch after the Keynote Yesterday. I have a few questions though that I'm on the fence about:
1. Does the iPod Touch Mail Client Sync with the OSX Mail Client. Does it sync in Tiger? Does it sync in Leopard? Or does it only sync via .Mac
2. Does the Calendar Program allow you to create new events on the calendar like an iPhone, or can you only view existing events like on the iPod. What about the Address Book?
3. When the Wifi is not connected can you view your email messages?
4. When the SDK kit is released in February, will I be able to purchase developer's apps for the iPod Touch, or will they be exclusive to the iPhone?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

1. The mail client works with POP or IMAP, it does not "sync" with the OSX Mail app that I am aware of however if you are using OSX Mail to access a POP or IMAP account they can be configured to work together.
2. You can add events to the calendar as well as contacts to the address book directly
3. You can view emails w/o WiFi if you have configured Mail to do so
4. I don't have an official answer for this one, but I would assume the answer is yes.
Hope that helps, all of this information is avaliable on the iPod Touch product pages.

Hi, my name's Michael and I had a question about my iPod touch. I recently dropped it but I still have a warranty and Apple Support said they couldn't fix that my screen doesn't recognize my finger is on there trying to do anything?

Hi, my iPod touch was recently dropped but afterwards I called Apple Support and they told me I have a 17 day warranty for my Apple iPod Touch, so then I asked them if I could send it in to get fixed but what had happened to my iPod was that when I click the home button and try to ''Slide to Unlock" it doesn't recognize that I'm trying to do anything else the only thing that I can do is press the "Sleep" and "Home" Buttons and nothing else. Anything you can do to help me please??

Even if you were still under AppleCare warranty, it would not cover damage from a fall.
That "17 day" warranty makes no sense, though. iPods have a 1-year free AppleCare warranty for service, and 90 days for free phone support:
http://www.apple.com/support/products/ipod.html
Apple can repair just about anything that might be wrong with your iPod, but it will cost you. Call, explain the problem, ask for a repair appointment at your nearest Apple Store (or get a case number and ask for instructions to mail it in for a repair), but get a firm quote on the repair cost before authorizing the repair (or mailing it in for repair).

Several questions about iCloud & iPod touch

I have several questions regarding iCloud which I just started using yesterday.
So far most of my music has been uploaded, but many songs say that "an error occurred" so they were not able to be uploaded. 1) How can I get these songs to upload/try again? 2) These songs are currently on my iPod touch. I haven't configured my iPod for iCloud/iTunes Match yet for fear of losing the music that is already on there. If something from my desktop was unable to be uploaded, will it be deleted from my iPod when I set up my iPod for iCloud/iTunes Match?
3) I have purchased music with my iPod but not synced it with a computer. Will that music be lost if I start using iCloud on my iPod? Will it be uploaded to the cloud so I can access it on my laptop and desktop (which are both Mac products and set up with iCloud)? I no longer connect my iPod to a computer because the laptop it was connected to and had all of my music on died and my new one doesn't have enough storage. My desktop is old and has my older music collection and I fear losing all of the music that is on my iPod (that I don't have anywhere else). I hope that iCloud will help me with all of this- please tell me that it will! 5) I accidentally downloaded half of an album to my iPod and half to my laptop. Will iCloud allow me to have the whole album on 1 device? Thanks so much!

Lots and lots of questions
The new Photos app in OS X should address much of this - it greatly simplifies syncing stuff across machines. Apple has details on it up here:
https://www.apple.com/osx/photos-preview/
It says "coming this spring" and a pre-release version has already been made available to developer testers.

I have a question regarding the iPod Touch and iPhone batteries.

Hello,
I started asking myself questions lately about my iPod Touch 5th generation battery. A few months ago, when a friend of mine asked me to plug her iPhone 5S in the wall (the battery depleted), I noticed that her phone was at 1% of battery power. Then I compared my iPod Touch battery with her phone's battery, and discovered that my iPod Touch stops working when the battery is close to 10% battery power. This is concerning to me because I feel like I only have about 85-90% of battery power available when I use my iPod Touch, while my friend has over 99% of battery available. It's a huge gap, I can't use this 10% that I wish i had. I'm wondering why iPods can't stop functioning when the battery is close to 1% instead of 10%? Can you imagine not being able to use 10% of your battery! And it was like this since iOS 6.1.3. My iPod Touch would shut down automatically when the battery would be depleted, but in reality, it still had 10, maybe 15% left. Why is that?
Thank you.

Hey Lil'fighter, First, stop comparing an iPod with an iPhone. They may look a like on the outside, share the same iOS, and some of the components, but that is as far as it goes! The biggest reason your friends iPhone out last the iPod is a bigger battery, greater capacity. Secondly, the phone is configured a bit differently and uses power a little more effectively. Third, it is impossible to completely drain the battery in either device. A safety circuit prevents you from doing that. With Li-ion batteries if you completely drain one, it will de-ionize and become useless; never charge again. I suspect the threshold is set higher for an iPod then on an iPhone. But if you feel your iPod is not performing as it should, and a reset or restore does not improve function, then by all means take it to Apple and have it evaluated. Hope this helps. Cheers.

Few questions about syncing

Hi,
I have a few questions about syncing. Since this is my first iphone and apple product, I'm not familliar with it. My mother bought the tomtom app for navigation. And she said that it has 3 uses (for 3 different devices). Now the app is in her library on her computer. So if i try to sync with her library, it will erase all my previous apps. How come? Also I'm planning to use a laptop in college so I'll have to sync it with that.
What should I do to keep my apps?

All 3rd party apps - paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to download the app. This is required by 3rd party app developers to prevent people from stealing from them with paid apps. If not for this, you could pay for and download the TomTom app which is not cheap and all your friends and family members with an iPhone could install the app on their iPhone without paying for it, which in effect is stealing.
There is no device limit for the number of iPods and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library on the same computer, but in regards to all iTunes content - music, movies, tv shows, and 3rd party apps, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.

A few questions about how ZPM works.

We have patch management (in ZCM 11.2.2), but honestly don't use it much. I have a few questions about how it works that might make me use it more, if I understand it more.
If I deploy a patch (or a set of patches), it creates a bundle for that deployment. That bundle seems to include actions that deploy the actual patch bundles (correct?). Do I have to recreate a new deployment bundle every time I want to push a new patch? i.e. If I push a Java update, and a month later, a new one comes out, do I build out a new bundle with the new patch in it, or do I modify the old one?
Once the patch is deployed, can I safely delete that deployment bundle, or should they just pile up?
Is there a way to "auto-approve" patches? Lets say I always want a group of machines to have the latest Adobe Flash Player patches. Can I set up ZPM to automatically cache and push the latest patches for a specific product, or do I have to manually remediate each patch? (I'm thinking of how MS's WSUS does "auto-approval")
I see most packages aren't cached in list, but occasionally, a patch is cached without me touching it. Why? Can I change what gets automatically cached?
Thanks for any help/answers you can provide.

For #1, (assuming you're not using baselines), you would check the new version of the patch (vulnerability) and do a new deployment.
#2 - once you're satisified that the machines are deployed (or the best to your ability) you can delete the DEPLOYMENT package. It doesn't delete the actual vulnerability bundles to my knowledge. That's why it's a good idea to name your bundle deployments with something meaningful, IMO (and maybe include a nice desription).
#3 - currently I don't believe this is possible. I know you can probably configure it to auto-download the patches, but not auto-deploy everything. Given the propensity for software to wreck other things (hello MS .NET patches), this is probably not a good idea. At least I'd never auto-download and auto-deploy any patches without testing them first, and certainly take my servers a little more cautiously than my workstations.
#4 - I think you can configure what's cached, but I could be wrong.
I know there's a lot of improvements coming in the pipeline, and it doesn't hurt to "vote" for your enhancements via the enhancement system (more work for Shaun--haha)

Few questions about Airport Extreme/Express

I have a few questions about Airport extreme/express:
1 Can you access hard drive trough express?
2 I have cable NOT wireless modem. What would be the best option (speed-wise) to connect to internet- connect modem to Extreme and access internet wirelessly from it? To connect modem to Extreme and imac?
3 How fast is read/ write from hard drive connected to Extreme?
4 How many hard drives can you connect to Extreme (or Express if that is possible)?
5 Can you remotely sync Ipod nano/ shuffle using Extreme?
I really hate wire clutter around my desk. What I intend to do is to connect hard drives and printer to Airport Extreme and access them remotely. That would leave empty desk:).
Thanks

1. You cannot connect a hard drive to the Airport Express USB port.
2. The speed of wireless networking is faster than the speed of most cable internet services. Therefore, you won't notice any difference in your internet connection speed between (a) a cabled connection directly between Mac and modem or (b) a wireless connection between Mac and base station and modem.
3. Apple has not published any specs on the speed of hard drive access for the Airport Extreme N Base Station. Several people have posted their own measurements (do a search in this discussion forum), and generally those results are not very good.
4. Apple has not placed a limit on the number of drives you can attach to the Airport Extreme N Base Station (with use of a hub). How many do you want to connect?
5. You cannot remotely sync an iPod using the Extreme Base Station.

I have a few scratches on my iPod touch 4th gen screen and it really bothers me I need a way to get rid of them

I have a few scratches on my iPod touch 4th gen screen and it really bothers me and I need a way to fix it without replacing the screen or causing further damage

Hey Pandorafromtn, Not to rub salt in you open wounds, but prevention would have cost less than $10! Anything that will remove the scratches will most likely ruin the screen. I am aware of a product that works well for fill scratches in eyeglasses. It paints on, is kind of milky semi-transparent then drys to a haze. You then rub / polish until clear. Will it damage the coating on an iPod screen? I don't know. But may be for not, I can't remember the name of the stuff. I guess contact a eye care center, they may be able to help. Replacing the screen would be the best option you have or learn to live with it. In the future use a case and/or screen protector. Or you could start working on your incantations, "Oculus Repairus!" Don't forget the flick of the wrist to get your wand in the correct angle as you state "Repairus". All joking aside, Good luck. Cheers.

A few questions about Patone colors

I have a few questions about patone colors since this is the first time I use them. I want to use them to create a letterhead and business cards in two colors.
1)
I do understand that the uncoated is more washed out than the coated patone colors. I heard that this is because the way paper absorbs the inkt. This is why the same inkt results in different colors on different paper (right?). My question is why is the patone uncoated black so much different than normal black (c=0 m=0 y=0 k=100) or rich black:
When I print a normal document with cmyk, I can get pretty dark black colors. Why is it that I cannot have that dark black color with patone colors? Even text documents printed on a cheap printer can get a darker color than the Patone color. It just looks way too grey for me.
2) For a first mockup, I want to print the patone colors as cmyk (since I put like 10 different colors on a page for fast comparison). I know that these cmyk colors differ from the patone colors and that I cannot get a 100% representation. But is there a way to convert patone to cmyk values?
I hope that some of you can help me out with my questions.
Thanks.

You can get Pantone's CMYK tints in Illustrator, (Swatches Panel > Open Swatch Library > Color Books > PANTONE+ Color Bridge Coated or Uncoated) but in my view, what's the point? If you're printing to a digital printer, just use RGB (HSB) or CMYK. Personally, I never use Pantone's CMYK so-called "equivalents."
Pantone colors are all mixed pigmented inks, many of which fluoresce beyond the gamut limits of RGB and especially CMYK. The original Pantone Matching System (PMS) was created for the printing industry. It outlined pigmented ink formulations for each of its colors.
Most digital printers (laser or inkjet) use CMYK. The CMYK color gamut is MUCH SMALLER than what many mixed inks, printed on either coated or uncoated papers can deliver. When you specify non-coated Pantone ink in AI, according to Pantone's conversion tables, AI tries to "approximate" what that color will look like on an uncoated sheet, using CMYK. -- In my opinion, this has little relevance to real-world conditions, and is to be avoided in most situations.
If your project is going to be printed on a printing press with spot Pantone inks, then by all means, use Pantone colors. But don't trust the screen colors; rather get a Pantone swatch book and look at the actual inks on both coated and uncoated papers, according to the stock you will use on the press.
With the printing industry rapidly dwindling in favor of the web and inkjet printers, Pantone has attempted to extend its relevance beyond the pull-date by publishing (in books and in software alliances, with such as Adobe) its old PMS inks, and their supposed LAB and CMYK equivalents. I say "supposed" because again, RGB monitors and CMYK inks can never be literally equivalent to many Pantone inks. But if you're going to print your project on a printing press, Pantone inks are still very relevant as "spot colors."
I also set my AI Preferences > Appearance of Black to both Display All Blacks Accurately, and Output All Blacks Accurately. The only exception to this might be when printing on a digital printer, where there should be no registration issues.
Rich black in AI is a screen phenomenon, unless in Prefs > Appearance of Black, you also specify "Output All Inks As Rich Black," -- something I would NEVER do if outputting for an actual printing press. I always set my blacks in AI to "Output All Blacks Acurately" when outputting for a press. If you fail to do this, then on the press you will see any minor registration problems, with C, M, and Y peeking out, especially around black type. UGH!
Good luck! :+)

Few questions about iPhone 4S

Hi,
Recently I got an iPhone 4S, it is my first new phone in a long time, before this I had an old nokia, so I just have a few questions about it.
I havve read a alot of horror stories about the 4S battery life, mine seems ok, here is what I would like to know
1) How long should a healthy battery last?
2) how long should it take to charge to 100% from 1 or 2%?
On my daily commute I use listen it to music and sometimes user twiiter/facebook. I also get alerted of emails when they come in. So far it has just about lasted just about two days maybe before I had to recharge. Is this about right? As stated above I am coming from an old nokia, which is very dated now but the battery lasted almost a week before I had to charge, so having to charge my phone this often is new to me. My iPhone is really great and I just don't want any problems. I have turned off all extras that I don't need.
BTW are the iPhone 4S battery issues a software or hardware issue?
Thanks

I attempted to read your post, but in amongst all the random, unrelated waffling, I couldn't actually find exactly what your iPhone related question for this "Using iPhone" forum was.
Would you like to clarify? Concisely.

Few questions about Lenovo G550

Hello, I plan to buy an inexpensive laptop, propably it will be a Lenovo G550L but I got few questions about this model. Here are my questions:
1. What 320GB hard disks are mounted inside G550L, Western Digital, Seagate or Hitachi (exact model if possible)?
2. How are the hinges of LCD screen in this model, cause they look pretty weak. Do they break easy, does anyone got any experience with this type of hinges which are "forward type" instead of normal?
2. I have noticed that there are two types of laptop chassis in this model one is matte black and another is grey glare. How to determine which model has which finish? Which finish got laptops with T4300, 3GB RAM, 320GB HDD, Intel IGP x4500, no card reader, no hdmi.
Thanks in advance.

my friend samsung any net, toshiba regza link, panasonic viera link is their special TM to support CEC
but just for their product not other products,for instance a samsung dvd player and a samsung lcd can sync easily with with hdmi cable
and in this case you dont need an extra remote control to control dvd besides tv.just with having a remote you can control both of them or the other audio visual products from that campany
please think???? how could you control your lenovo when it does not have a remote?
every device need to send signals to the remote not by just some wires like HDMI
lcd has a remote and a dvd player also has a remote and if those are from a unit company,they share a common signal with HDMI cable ,then you could control both of them with just one remote.
this can ease your work,as you dont need a lot of remote around your devices
but they should be from just a unit producer cause they uses different protocols
and of course they want to sell their various products and oblige you to buy other products from that producer to have the compability for having just one remote.

Few questions about recovery on P100-400

Good evening all,
I have a few questions about recovering my laptop...
So, I was thinking if the only way to clean my entire disk is to use the Recovery DVD?
I ask this because I think that the computer becomes too "heavy" with all the applications it came with. So I was wondering if I can format the Hard Drive instead of recover it.
If I format the drive do I loose warranty? Is there any future problem related to genuine software?
It's possible to install Windows XP Pro (and not the actual windows xp media center) with the original Operative system's product key?
Thank you.
Best Regards.

Hello
I will try to give you few answers and I hope it will help you.

I do not understand what you mean with I can format the Hard Drive instead of recover it but you can do follow: install OS using delivered recovery media and after doing this remove all applications you do not need. After doing this maybe your notebook will not be heavy anymore.
> If I format the drive do I loose warranty?
NO.
> Is there any future problem related to genuine software?
I do not know what you mean exactly
> It's possible to install Windows XP Pro (and not the actual windows xp media center) with the original Operative system's product key?
No. Something like this is not possible. Product key belongs to delivered and preinstalled OS.
