Android 2.2 conspiracy theory

It's George Bush's fault

On another forum that I participate in, there's a thing called a  "Coffee Alert". It's when one opens a post to read and it's funny or striking enough to make one spit his coffee all over the computer screen.
This was almost a Diet Coke alert....

  • Conspiracy Theory

    What if the overclocking issues are all bios related?
    What if MSI made a special bios and only supplied it to review sites to show what the board really could do?
    What if MSI had some sort of agenda with AMD to keep these boards from really shining?
    What if MSI/AMD got concerned that the Socket 754 would steal Socket 939's thunder?
    What if MSI would finally release a bios that gives us what we thought we were buying?
    What if MADE IN CHINA has something to with it?
    What if?
    You tell me  

    Ya I think its the Made in China! EVIL IS AFOOT! lol j/k china's alright but not for motherboards in my opinion Taiwan usually does a good job.. When I first recieve the board I was worried because it had that sticker.. usually to me it would mean the pcb was low quality and same with the cpu retention.. I could be wrong china may be the best but i dont know  
    Im begenning to realize that MSI is ECS. lol Only because I'm having so many issues. Otherwise its awesome, very attractive PCB nice design.. But doesnt work My Memory.. Hangs during gaming for like 5min.. maybe its memory?..

  • Conspiracy theory: the micro's stock earbuds break the j

    i used my micro for a month without ever (and i mean ever) using the earbuds... last weekend (2 days), i used the earbuds and now have a broken jack
    (i noticed the male end of the earbud plug is slightly longer than all of my other headphones by at least 0.5mm)
    anyone else have a similar experience?

    sounds like creative needs to have a re-call on this LoL
    but seriously its not fair to the consumer... It's annoying when I have to walk down the street and keep my hand in my pocket to hold the HP jack in place just so I can hear my music...
    I like creative as a company, and I am glad that theres another mp3 player out there that sets me apart from the IPAUD clones...
    But if the quality isnt there, I may have to invest in another companies products. I also think its kinda lame that just 2 months ago I purchased a player with 5GB and now a NEW one is being released that holds more for the same price... And I doubt i can get an upgrade or trade in...

  • Why Adobe is not supporting android device?

    I'm using android device but all adobe products are designed for iOS only. So, I need solution for this.

    Test Screen Name wrote:
    Another possibility is that the iOS port was an experiement (so they only set up one development team), and that they found that revenues did not justifying increasing the experiement to more platforms.  Just a thought. What would people pay for Android Photoshop apps, I wonder...
    That's my take on it.  I know it doesn't sound as good as a conspiracy theory.
    I'm not sure it even had to do with revenue, but you have a point about payment - I bet the average Apple user spends more on apps then an Android user.
    I'd guess that they were only going to put money into developing one system first, so they went with the one that has been around longer and probably did have market share at the time they began.  The devices are also manufactured by the same person, as opposed to the myriad of android variations out there.  And lets face it, iOS is a more polished system.  In full disclosure  I'm strictly an Android/PC user because I refuse to support the level of administrative control and planned obsolescence that Apple puts in their products.  Still, I think they make the best devices out there.

  • IPhone defaults to iMessage in group containing android user

    Since upgrading to iOS 8 and above, when sending a group message to a 4 iPhones and 1 Android, the message defaults to an iMessage. As a result, the android user never gets the message. We have been using the same thread for over a year and the problem is only recently been happening. We have deleted the group and started a new group, but once an iPhone user responds to the group, it automatically switches to iMessage and the android user is on

    Apple support, I need support on this. I spent over 4 hours on the phone with AT&T and Apple today, and nobody seems to know how to fix it. It is a minor annoyance with the family group not working and I miss dinner, however it becomes a major inconvenience when something at work gets missed and I get officially disciplined as a result. I don't know how to get Apple's attention on this. It seems that the thousands of people having this problem would get them to look at their code and realize that the switch, during an established group conversation, to iMessage might be a problem for non-Apple consumers. From an outsider's "conspiracy theory" model, this seems to me to be an executive decision on the part of Apple to get a few more people to purchase their devices.

  • Wifi connectivity, conspiracy?

    I have been experiencing connectivity issues with my iPhone for quite some time now. My phone will sustain the connection for a period of time, only to later drop the connection. In my opinion, I think this is some kind of conspiracy to charge people data usage while they are unaware of their disconnected wifi, or to charge people data as they are in the middle of streaming something.

    First off how do you figure Apple makes a device that charges you extra data... seeing as how it would be your carrier getting paid? Apple has already been paid when you bought the device.
    Conspiracy theory shot down.
    Now there are several things  you can do .. assuming you are on 6.0.2 as your post indicated.
    Reset network settings
    reset all settings
    restore through itunes (as new not from a backup)
    If it still has an issue you might have a hardware issue

  • Bluetooth broken? I have a fix.

    Bluetooth is still broken in version 4.0.0.19550.  Not surprising.  Thankfully, unlike previous versions of Skype, there is a way to make Skype THINK it's a professional app in this version!  You heard it here first, folks!  The Skype Gods really have been listening to our prayers, and bestowed upon us a version of Skype that--while still broken--is slightly less broken than previous versions!  Glorious day!  As a consumer, I am humbled to know that the developers not only listen to us, but recognize and fix the problems we find for them! 
    Alright, so, let's get this started, shall we?  How do you get your Bluetooth headset working on your Skype phone, and why isn't your phone/headset working properly?
    I'll tell you now, that it's probably got more to do with Skype than whatever ROM/kernel you're running. I tried this on my stock 4.2.2 Nexus 4, and on CM10.1 stable, running Franco's Kernel r151, and a Nexus 7 that's been through so many different ROMs and kernels, I couldn't begin to tell you. The headset I'm using is the LG HBS730, which has served me well in all tasks on my phone other than Skype for Android. This is a long-standing problem I've had with Skype; the conspiracy theorist inside of me wants to believe it's because Microsoft wants to push their Windows phones by purposefully making their Android client stink, but the realist in me hopes that's not true (what with the wide range of Android hardware that the Skype Client would have to support). 
    Okay, to get the headset working, I've done the following. 
    1. Make sure your headset's paired.  And, before you start skype, turn your bluetooth headset off and wait until it disconnects.
    2. I turn my phone's Bluetooth off and on again. Do not reconnnect the headset yet.
    3. Sign into Skype (I'm using the version that was updated on July 10, 2013 (version 4.0.0.19550).
    4. Join the call that your friend(s) are in. You will start to hear them over your phone's loudspeaker or the regular speaker.
    5. Turn your Bluetooth headset on, wait for it to connect. When it connects, Skype should automatically recognize it, and start using both the mic and the earphones on the headset, and you should be able to talk normally.  You will notice the Bluetooth icon has now appeared in place of the loudspeaker icon.
    Here are some things that will annoy you, though:
    When you get a regular phone call, the Skype call will be put on hold. When you end the phone call and try to rejoin the Skype call, Skype will still see the headset as connected, but will continue to use the phone's speaker and microphone.
    This is going to happen a lot, and here's how to fix that:
    1. Leave the call, and sign out. 
    2. Close the app from the little task manager thingy (If it's a Galaxy SIII, just hold the home button and swipe it away).
    3. Disconnect the Bluetooth headset. You can turn your bluetooth on your phone on and off again real quick if you think that helps--I have yet to determine if it does.
    4. Sign back into Skype, and join the call.
    5. Turn your headset back on again, and Skype should connect to the headset.
    5b. Sometimes, the bluetooth icon will appear active, but you will get sound from the phone and it will be using your phone's built-in mic.  Start from step 1 if this happens.
    Sadly, for some bizarre reason, I have not been able to connect my headset to my phone, and sign into Skype with the expectation that anything will work, at all. I wish it weren't so complicated, but it is.
    Oh, and FYI, don't bother with Skype premium. Group video doesn't work on Android phones OR Windows phones (even from Windows desktop to Windows phone, my friend and I tested; way to sell broken services, Microsoft!), so if you're on-the-go a lot, it's a total waste of money. Also, if you're bike riding, you're probably just going to anger off your friends in the Skype call with all the ambient noise. The mute feature on my headset is not recognized by Skype, so I have to dig my phone out of my pocket to mute it from the screen, but since Bluetooth headsets don't work at all on Skype for Android, I'm not going to hold the muting thing against them.
    I hope this helps, but more than that, I hope that one day, Microsoft will restore my faith in Skype. But considering it took them this long to revise their app to the point where Bluetooth even pretends to work, I'm not crossing my fingers.  Exhausted from the endless consumer-abuse, I'm looking for alternatives.
    Hope this helps, 'fellas.  
    Gaius C.

    Hmmm.. thinking the conspiracy theory of Microsoft nobling Android to sell their own phone operating sys is a good one as I can see no reason why Skype have not fixed this long standing, and very important issue. I have tried various versions of Android on various phones and headsets, the problem seems to be with all, only common factor, Skype on Android. I have seen no official response from Skype on any of the multiple forum threads discussing this problem. All I can say, in my opinion, is Skype is the problem, not an Android one, it's on your doorstep! Plantronics, who have supplied me most headsets, can only offer the advice that it worked fine on Skype Ver 2, and not worked properly since (when did Microsoft buy Skype?). I pay Skype for a service but they are leaving me with no alternative but to vote with my feet, Viber works and I think I need to start looking at all alternatives. Maybe I should look at Linux on the PC too!

  • Bladerunner "replicant" technology used in Creative Zen Micro

    For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Harrison Ford movie "Bladerunner" it's basically about a bunch of human looking androids who somehow find out that they have been built with only a certain lifespan (4 years i think) and because of this decide to kill their inventor.
    What has this got to do with Zen Micros ?
    Well I have been one of those users who has thought that all the RMA stories on this board were due to either bad luck or mishandling of the ZM's by the posters but my ZM has just died after EXACTLY 6 MONTHS of owning it and being treated with "kid gloves".
    It hadn't been dropped and was working fine until it just stopped and started making whirring clicking noises. None of the recovery mode options would work, nor would replacing the battery fix it.
    If I was a conspiracy theorist i'd think that it had been built by the Tyrell corporation (see "Bladerunner" for explanation). I'm guessing that if enough of the ZM's are returned that will probably kill Creatives reputation hands down.
    Nice one creative.
    On the plus side I am now getting a replacement within the warranty period, unfortunately i have to replace my silver one with a white one now due to lack of stock.
    I guess it doesn't matter though as it'll probably be going back to them in exactly six months time as well - so perhaps i'll get to try out the full range of colours.

    Closing this thread. I don't see anything positi've coming from conspiracy theory threads.
    Glad to hear you're getting your player replaced in any case.

  • APPLE = JUNK

    When is verizon going to get apples #*($ out of their @#$?  They have recently skipped over several good droid and windows based phones because of whats popular to the ill-informed masses of people out there.   Instead of propogating useless technology, why not spread your wings out there and get decent phones?  If at&t had better coverage in my area i would switch in a heartbeat just to get my hands on a new nokia with windows.  Much smoother, more customizable and all around BETTER phone.  Or the galaxy s2 would have been a great phone too, instead of that nexus junk plastic thing.  Now the s3 is out and im not sure if verizon is going to pick that one up either.  Samsung and nokia make the BEST phones in the world, its about time verizon started selling those phones.  People are starting to realize that apple just doesnt meet the hype. 

    If you honestly believe that none of Apple’s products are good, then yes, you are a fanboy. Apple makes good products. Samsung makes good products. Motorola makes good products. Asus makes good products. Nokia makes good products. Anyone who isn’t hellbent on railing against a certain company or OS can see that there are good devices, services, and operating systems on every side of this market.
    Now lets look at some unsubsidized, factory-fresh prices:
    Droid Razr Maxx: $650
    Galaxy Nexus: $650
    iPhone 4S 16GB: $650
    These phones are the latest models put out by their respective manufacturers. Correct me if I’m wrong on this. Notice anything? Like how their prices are exactly the same? These off-contract prices honestly don’t matter much to the average consumer who only upgrades when the contract is up, but since you dodged my legitimate point about the on-contract prices being the same, there you go.
    Yes, the Lucid is $80 on-contract. That’s great! It’s a great phone. But so is the iPhone 4, which is available on-contract for $20 more. Some people will take the Lucid, some will take the iPhone. The choice is theirs. The Lucid has 4G LTE, a larger screen, and beefier internals; the iPhone 4 runs a simpler OS with a higher-resolution screen and the full support of the iOS ecosystem. It’s a personal choice, I’d say those phones are about neck-and-neck.
    The Nexus being a “flop” doesn’t matter when we’re discussing phone quality. The Galaxy Nexus is a superior phone. That’s simply the end of that discussion. It came out after, has more powerful specs, a larger screen, 4G LTE, and runs native vanilla Android 4.0. That’s the end of that discussion. The build quality is on par with the SII because Samsung uses the same materials to do it. I’ve spent extensive amount of time with both handsets, and the only thing better on the SII is the camera.
    Apple’s iPhone 4S starts at $200, which is the price point they’ve offered their phones at since the iPhone 3G in 2008. If other companies are selling their 4G phones for the same price as Apple is, that’s their decision. Apple’s been selling phones at the same price point for 4 years now. And in fact, many HAVE decided to charge more. The Galaxy Nexus started at $300, though it’s now down to $200; and the Razr Maxx started at $300 as well, where according to the Verizon Wireless website, it remains. So there’s that “research” you wanted me to do.
    Your groundless conspiracy theory about Verizon employees being paid more to push the iPhone is complete nonsense. I can say from personal experience in two local Verizon stores that reps usually direct people towards the 4G LTE phones, as again, that’s Verizon’s main selling point right now: the largest LTE coverage in the nation. But hey, you don’t have to believe me, here’s an article from GottaBeMobile that echoes my story:
    http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/05/04/verizon-employees-pushing-android-over-outdated-iphone/
    And if you kept up with the mobile industry’s latest news you’d know that Verizon - according to reliable leaked roadmaps - is going to release several great phones later in the year, such as a Galaxy SIII variant running on LTE and an HTC phone similar in size to the Galaxy Note.
    I appreciate you SAYING that you can “prove” your position, but from what I’ve seen, you can’t. I hope venting here has been therapeutic for you, but at the end of the day, it's really just ranting. People will choose the phone that they want. If people want iPhones, you don’t get to attack them for that. Different strokes for different folks.

  • Skype call put on hold

    hi all anyone facing this issue . always Skype call put on hold when I make call to others. there is no option every time I need to cut the call again for making a call . it is really irritating . I am using iOS 8 .

  • Low quality call

    Hi.
    I am in Canada, on a low-speed upload connection (1 Mbps). That's how it is, all providers offer pretty much the same speed. I use skype to call my parents in Romania, with a huge upload speed (40 Mbps). For several months we have this problem: they don't understand my voice at all, they describe they hear some "noisy vibrations" which cover completely what I say.
    I am sure it is a problem with skype, and with the newer versions, I talked in the past with my parents without any glitch. I also know it's not something related to the microphone/drivers/Windows errors, as once I took my laptop to a place where the upload speed was 30 Mbps and my parents heard me perfectly.
    Any ideas on what I could try?
    Thanks!

    Now that was very helpful indeed, thank you!
    (It was expected that, once taken over by Microsoft, the quality of the calls on skype must drop).
    Ah- there's the rub!! I used Skype pre-Microsoft and post-M-soft. I CAN NO LONGER UNDERSTAND MY CALLERS!!!! I can *hear* them fine- the volume is fine, but the bandwidth allocations have narrowed so, that the consonants such as "S"and "F" are no longer discernible. The caller I speak with is unintelligible! Thus making the call WORTHLESS. I have considered deleting my Skype usage and account and going with another carrier, using equipment called an "ATA" (analog telephone adapter) through ObiTalk and using a global carrier (NOT skype). I do have high speed data internet- matters not whether I am using a desktop, smartphone, anything- even on another's account- the voice quality is MISERABLE and UNUSABLE now. SKPYE IS AWFUL. I am actually wondering if Microsoft WANTS skype to fail- as in, a conspiracy theory that Gates hates Skype SO much that he wants it to just "die". Soo disappointed with Skype now.

  • Still no WiFi on iPhone 4s after OS7 upgrade - Need upgrade

    Dear Verizon, Apple et al,
    You've got us between a rock and a hard place. My daughter's recently upgraded iPhone 4s has no Wifi. With four phones on Verizon and as long-time customers, we've been very good and loyal. But this situation is untenable. With a year-old phone my daughter upgraded her device to OS7 when it become available (and was prompted to). Since then (beginning of September, within her year warranty period) her phone has been unable to connect to Wifi. The Wifi is greyed out. We are a long-time Apple family and when I say, I've done everything...it means, I've tried everything with this phone to get it working again. She was away at college and unable to get into an Apple store before her year warranty expired, so she was unable to get a replacement. We kept waiting for Apple to provide a fix. To issue a statement. To own up to the mess they've caused. Nothing.. Really? Oh Apple, how far you've fallen. Steve Jobs on his fluffy  iCloud is definitely turning over and frowning.
    Verizon, we need an upgraded devise. Her phone quit functioning within the year period (you can see this by the alarming amount of data she's using), but she couldn't travel to Apple or Verizon to get it replaced within that time period. Can you take care of this please? We'll have to go elsewhere for her, and once one has left the fold, the rest will follow.
    Thank you,
    Long-time customer

    I agree with you. So many of us 4s users have been affected by this. I am at the two year mark myself so no warranty replacement for me unfortunately. I tried all apples suggested fixes and nothing works. Putting it in the fridge can get me going for a few minutes and I am able to update some of my larger apps this way, but in general my data usage has certainly increased and I have to really monitor it closely now. I believe it is Apples problem to deal with and remedy this issue warranty or not, it is obvious that it is the iOS 7 upgrade that has screwed the 4s users. Whether intentional or not it appears to be a conspiracy theory to get us to upgrade to the iPhone 5 which is really sad. I like the apple line and there is just no coincidence that so many 4s users were and are being affected by this plague of losing wifi capability so soon after this so called "fantastic" upgrade was announced and encouraged to be implemented. If I knew then what I know now I would have never upgraded! This just shows me two things, apple didn't not fully test this upgrade thoroughly enough, or that it shows the 4s was created with sub standard components which were over tasked and burned out with the iOS 7 update or soon thereafter. Apples only option for me was to pay them $199 to have my phone replaced! I would sooner spend $199 towards a new iPhone 5s before getting a replacement 4s that is sure to fail due to these existing issues. OR, has Apple pushed out the iOS 7.03 and 7.04 updates to rectify the problem and prevent more 4s phones from burning up their chips!? If so that is great however it leaves those of us that have already been affected holding the bag of goods and have been seriously harmed in the process. Apple needs to stand up and do the honorable thing to rectify the situation such in a manner that is similar with recalls on automobiles. For my phone I believe the damage is done and the updates have physically irreversibly damaged my phone. This is your one chance Apple, to make this right. Should you choose not to do so reflects a disgrace not only for your company as a whole but also for your employees from top to bottom as this in turn will hurt your future sales and profits like you have never seen. You have taken pride in producing quality products in the past. You were the leader that other OS followed. Now it appears you are following other OS's and your fan base is dropping like a rock. Not providing a viable solution to this problem will only hurt your reputation and status further. You have a choice to do what is right, and I seriously hope you will take it. I personally have more than 6 different iDevices in my own and will elect to buy non Apple products in the future along with encouraging other friends and family members to follow suit based on my own recent experience with your 4s / Debacle. Word of mouth goes a long way and can certainly turn out to be your worst enemy! Here is your chance Apple to do what is right, please make this right. Others reading this far, see the "White House Petition" that you can sign regarding this issue. Search the forums for link.

  • Memory install problems with my iMac. Can someone help me?

    I read several post before leave it my question here—like having similar RAM memory problems—but looks like nobody has the right answer. This is my dilemma.
    I have an iMac/Intel Core 2 Duo/2.8 GHz/RAM 2 GB/800 MHz,(Anodized Aluminum) 1st Generation - Summer 2007 Family, and has many others here I bought an extra 2GB module in hope to boost the memory from 2GB to 3GB (the new 2GB memory module and the old 1GB).
    I did the installation, making sure they fully seat into their sockets, turn on the computer, checking if the computer recognize the new memory module... and everything went right until I started working with the computer.
    The first indication of a problem happen 15 min. after I installed the memory. The computer crash and I follow the normal procedures to restart the Mac. No problems for about one hour.
    The second time the computer crash I was working an InDesign file, I did turn off and on the computer but this time it didn't work. There was no beep or other sound, nothing was shown on the screen. I took the new memory module out and replace it for the old 1GB.
    Now is working just fine. Is this an Apple scam to make us buy expensive Apple memory modules? The module in question, the one that I bought brand new from memory.com for just $26—instead of the outrageous price of $100 from Apple Store—in as follow:
    2GB DDR2-800 non ECC SO-DIM
    This is the recommended module for iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 24-inch at memory.com
    http://www.memory.com/net/System.aspx?model=37204
    I wondering if my problem could be the use of two different configurations (2GB+1GB modules) or is just a "conspiracy theory" that Apple want to make us buy expensive RAM memory.
    If I bought a "wrong module", why the computer recognize the upgrade and I was able to work, at least for 2 hrs?

    sergei63,
    It seems you did not purchase the correct memory! The memory for mid 2007 iMac (first generation Aluminum machines) is:
    667 MHz, PC2-5300, DDR2 compliant (also referred to as DDR2 667)
    Look in your owners manual and you will find this information. As you are finding out your machine will not run if it has incorrect memory in it.
    My suggestion is return the RAM you received and purchase the specification listed above.
    Regards,
    Roger

  • How can we stop the finger pointing?  Apps Vs iPad

    Here is a WiFi problem I sent the Print Magic HD developer with the hopes of getting Print Magic HD working on my iPad. Check out their response blaming Apple WiFi. My Wifi works well with all other Apps! Whose to blame?
    Set up:
    Print Magic HD version 1.0
    Brother HL-2170W; Rom Version 1.09; Net Rom version 1.06; Ram 32Mb iPad Version 3.2; 14 Gb; Model MB292LL; WiFi address 7C:6D:62:D9:16:E0
    Problem – Can’t Print
    Symptom: Print Magic HD seems to turn off WiFi after “Print” is pressed.
    I purchased the App after using your free Print Magic test App. With the test App, I was able to able to print from my iPad to my Brother HL-2170W WiFi laser printer. It did however, take a number of retries, but I was successful.
    I then purchased and installed Print Magic HD App and I'm not having any success.
    After confirming my Wifi is live, and the iPad is connected, here is what happens:
    1. Launch Print Magic HD
    2. Screen displays “looking for printers”. Please note that the iPad WiFi icon is displayed in the tool bar at top.
    3. Screen then shows “Brother HL-2170W series in Print Magic tool bar at top. I can observe the iPad WiFi icon is active in the tool bar.
    4. I then Press “Print” to print the simple telephone number I previously copied into the “Pasteboard”. I immediately observe that WiFi has been turned off by Print Magic HD as the WiFi icon is no longer displayed.
    5. Print Magic HD then quickly displays “Print Failed” error code. Sub text displays “Sorry, an error occurred while printing”. I then press “Ok” to dismiss prompt.
    6. Screen continues to display “Printing” with red Cancel button underneath and WiFi remains off. This App just hangs there.
    7. When I now check iPad settings, WiFi is indeed turned off.
    I can turn WiFi on and repeat this sequence verbatim every time.
    If I launch Safari after Print Magic HD error, it detects that WiFi is off and turns in on. Maybe your App should do the same??
    Is there a fix for this?
    RESPONSE:
    Hello,
    I spoke with our developers this morning and this is what I learned.
    Print Magic can not, in any way, control your wifi. Even if it was a bug, there is nothing in the app that can make this happen. What they did say was the iPad has had some "sketchy" wifi connections and has been going on and off more with certain applications. This is a universal complaint and has to do with the iPad itself. We are hoping Apple can correct this problem in their next software update. I have noticed at times that my wifi connection is not solid and is listed as "not connected" on my iPad when my PC is working fine.
    Also, the test app and HD app have all of the same coding and are exactly the same. Nothing has changed as far as that goes.
    I hope this information helps.
    Thanks,

    I know this will sound like a conspiracy theory, but maybe Apple doesn't want you printing from your iPad... yet. Could be something Apple did so as not to "Steal their Thunder" when they announce the upgrades on the next generation iPad. Just a thought...

  • One iPod shuffle on two computers

    Is there any way to use my iPod shuffle both on my desktop Mac and my iBook? Take this scenario: I fill my iPod shuffle about half full of music on my Mac Mini. Then, I grab my iBook and go on the road. While on vacation, I buy a new CD, or perhaps purchase a few songs from the iTunes music store. I import the CD into my iBook, and then wish to put it, or the purchased music, on my iPod shuffle. If I connect the shuffle to the iBook, it'll say something about the shuffle being linked to a different library and that continuing would wipe all the music off of it! All other iPod's I've used can be put into "manual" mode and this works fine, not to mention songs can be played directly from the iPod - the shuffle has to "think different" it seems. Is there a way to actually accomplish this, or would I then be forced to wait until I get home to load more music on the shuffle?
    I can hear someone already saying, just use your iBook for all your music. Nope, because I don't want to take out my iBook every time I want to listen to some music, nor do I want to manually be shuffling songs back and forth between iTunes libraries.

    The conspiracy theory for not having "manual" mode on the shuffle is that it's the cheapest iPod and "manual" mode somehow makes it easier to copy music from the shuffle to the host computer. I find that unlikely because it's just easy to get music of all the iPod models as long as you know what you're doing.
    There are progams that let you update the shuffle manually. They are easier than the alternative (copy the files to the iBook, load them into iTunes, update the iPod with the songs).
