Apple - Any news on a iphone 3g charger adaptor for audio docks?

My 16g iphone 3g is still lying on my desk collecting dust. I've had it for 3 weeks now.
I use my original iphone every day charging it up using my expensive Audi dock on my way to work, then if needed top up with more juice in my Bose soundock, neither of which will charge with my 3g.
You advertised the iphone as 3 products in one, a mobile phone, a web browsing device and a ipod. Now apple please will you deliver on your end or the deal and make my 3g iphone work with my ipod certified equipment, cos I am not gonna upgrade $1000 worth of equipment that I bought less than a year ago.
Apple you have a duty of care to your loyal customers, just announce whether you are gonna be providing adaptors or not, Thankyou

Thanks for the link, actually i'd already been on the Ridax site to view this solution. It all looks ok except my knowledge of electronics is very limited and have no idea if it will be safe to use in the U.K, buying a $40 converter to use in a $50,000 dollar car, not knowing if it's compliant is one risk too far for me.
I was really hoping for a product that is apple certified or better still produced by apple to solve this problem. Maybe a product that was more fairly priced, it's only a converter at the end of the day, $40 is excessive especially when I think I've got 2 Audio devices to convert. I think something around the £10 mark ($20 US) would be fair. As the Ridax converter is the only solution ATM I can see why they are able to command a $40 price tag but I'm holding out in the hope that Apple will announce something official on this matter, so I can finally clean off the dust on my 3g and start using it.

Is there any news to have Iphone 6 in the market ?

Is there any news to have Iphone 6 in the market ?

You'll just have to make your best guess. Whether Apple will stick to pattern is unknown, though it would seem likely that they'd release new iPhone hardware at the same time that they release the new version of iOS. That may not occur that way, though. If you don't need a new phone now, you can wait and see what happens, but you may be waiting some months.

Any resolution to syncing iphone 5 with outlook for mac 2011

Did this get resolved? "any resolution to syncing iphone 5 with outlook for mac 2011"

Do you see Outlook sync options in iTunes?
This Apple doc has some tips that should help -> Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing

I just want know if is possible use the iphone's charge battery for the i-pod touch. Thank you!

i just want know if is possible use the iphone's charge battery for the i-pod touch. Thank you!

Using an iPhone wall charger for the iPod is fine. You can also use an iPhone cable for the iPod.
The term " iphone's charge battery" is not really clear.

Will my iPhone 4 charging adaptor (output 5v, 2.1a) work with my iPhone 5? The adaptor that comes with the 5 is 5v, 1a.

Will my iPhone 4 charging adaptor (output 5v, 2.1a) work with my iPhone 5? The adaptor that comes with the iPhone 5 has an output of 5v, 1a. I am concerned that the output is too high for the 5.

It will work fine. The iPhone will only draw the power it wants.

I called apple tech support cause my iphone 5 charger just stopped working. Aplle tech support said they can send me a new charger but why do they need credit card information if i have only had the the charger for 2 months and i have 1 year warranty?

I called apple support because my iphone 5 charger stopped working and they said they would send me a new charger but why do they need credit card information if every apple product has 1 year warranty?

Hi CryyCorr33
Sound like they did what is called an express replacment. What apple does is they put a hold on your Credit Card for the amount of the cord because they are sending you the cord first. Then, once you receive the new cord in about 2-3 days, you'll put the defective cord in the box and ship it back out and when they receieve the defective one, they'll be able to remove that hold from you card.
I believe the reason behind the hold on your card is incase you don't return your defective one to them so they can find out the cause of the issue.
An Apple Retail Store could swap them out for you in store incase you happen to be near one. This requires no hold.
Hope this helps

Any news on the iphone 5

Is there a date out yet?

No one here would know anything about any new iPhone. You'll have to go to the rumor sites & read...well rumors.

Any news on when LIghtroom will be updated for the Nikon D750? There is already an ACR update.

Anxious to use LR with my new camera. Even a "Release Candidate" would be great!

There is never any news. Adobe never announces in advance when new releases are coming out.
So, you will just have to wait like the rest of us.

As of Dec 08, is there any news on when iPhone/ATT issues will be resolved?

I've found about a billion posts bashing the iPhone 3G, but most of the content and articles are rather outdated. So, it's December 1st and I'm considering getting an iPhone later this month. The 2.1 came out a while back, and 2.2 has now been out for a while...
-Has there been any improvements with the 3G service?
-Has there been any improvements with the battery life and how many hours do you typically get out of 1 charge?
-Does it still have issues with dropping calls / txt messages?
-Are people still replacing SIM cards as a potential fix for issues or will a new SIM card that comes with it be no different than a replacement card?
I'd like to hear experiences good and bad, and if you're in the East Bay (Northern CA), tell me how the coverage has been for you, or even the Bay Area in general. I'm hoping to hear people who have purchased iPhones in the last month or so have had a better experience, but from what I've read so far I'm not sure if that's the case.
Thanks

good luck... it's a "depends" kinda answer you'll receive from the masses. Personally, I went from R2.0 in July to R2.0.2 before experiencing any issues at all with my 3G iPhone... wondering why there were people out there with so many issues. I've since learned the past two upgrades. Simple answer... I'd wait!! Especially if you're not hooked yet by having used someone else's. I feel AT&T connectivity is poor right now trying to get a robust enough 3G network up and running to handle the volume of user's and "forget" their claim to having more "bar's". I live in a dark orange and blue coverage area and reception is inconsistent. If you want to read my specifics, read on....
My issues have been:
1. GPS accuracy... corrected in R2.1
2. Dropped call's from "day 1" more dropped call's on AT&T the first three days in my local area than I have 7-yr's traveling nationwide on business with Verizon (I believe AT&T holds 80% responsibility for this). Just had two today in a dark orange coverage area in my home
3. 3G is intermittent to say the least. I live 3-miles from the closest 3g tower and my svc will vary from No Svc to 5-bars (note: 3G connectivity depends on the number of users on a tower at the same time; therefore, you will watch your connectivity/signal strength vacillate in a matter or seconds or minutes with no consistency) When in strong 3G area's the iPhone will sing...
4. about a month ago they started having FETCH issues on the iPhone where it would not accurately go out and pull emails in from your ISP... my experience was up to 45-60 min after a FETCH setting of 15-min. and "audible" notifications of emails arriving wasn't happening and my volumes are always at max setting. This was seemingly resolved with R2.2 10-days ago and just today it started acting up to where I am no longer receiving audible alerts to emails coming... and FETCH seems to work only 75% of the time. Good news is that when it does act up, the emails seem to arrive earlier than the set FETCH intervals.
Biggest issues I have is lack of any real consistency of the above... I went to Verizon this past weekend to play with the new "Storm" and was really disappointed with its poor intuitiveness and poor ease of navigation. It may have great features and may work 100% of the time, but if I have to waste time navigating my way around it, I might as well keep my iPhone. I really do like my iPhone when it works, but the only way I would abandon it now is if I could exit my contract without penalties to AT&T and even then I know I would miss it. It reminds me of the early days and headaches of cable TV with all its glitches... If your not on AT&T and can hold off a little longer on the iPhone, I can almost guarantee with all the missing features requiring hardware changes and required bug fixes that APPLE will have to release a new generation iPhone... I even heard rumor that there is an iPhone in the works that has a slide keyboard coming out... not that I would be interested in that feature, adding bulk to it. but point being APPLE will cannibalize this current generation iPhone for another in the next 10-months.

Any new info on Iphone 4 pricing in the UK

I am with 02, due for an upgrade as my contract is up next week.
02 have confirmed that I can upgrade to new handset my no news yet if that upgrade even with 18 or 24 month contract will be free or not, I know PAYG prices have been released but I am getting mixed reports on pricing for upgrade - any info anyone?
BTW I am after the 16g in Black!
Thanks

If you go to the Apple website, then you can pre-order all the iPhones - the 8gb will set you back £415 and the 32gb will set you back £599.
o2 have not released any prices yet and you cannot pre-order on their websites, just Apple, so you will probably have to wait until nearer 24th June.

Iphone not charging from jaguar ipod dock in car

i have a jaguar x-type 2003 with the audio connectivity module added on. It has a dock connector. When I attach my iPhone, it prompts airplaneode and says it is an unsupported device. If I click no to airplane mode, it works through the stereo to listen to music. However, the iPhone does not charge while connected. My iPod does charge when connected. Any thoughts on why this would be? Others have experience with this unit? Any advice?
Thanks!

Reid Wainess,
There are differences between the iPhone and the iPod when it comes to accessories that provide power, or other functions.
I would recomend contacting Jaguar to see if they have certified the dock as "Works with iPhone", if they have, it should work, and could be an issue with the dock or the iPhone.
If they have not, then not being able to charge is one of the possible issues that may arise. This article gives more information on "Works with iPhone"

Am using Firefox 5.0.1, any new tabs open with a search engine for imvu and when I go to about:config there is no entry for browser.newtab.url that I can modify

I am using Firefox 5.0.1.4205 with Windows 7 Home Premium Service pack1. My new tabs in Firefox open with a search engine for imvu rather than google as I would prefer. I can't find an answer to my problem so far because when I try the recommended use of about:config and finding browser.newtab.url; it is not listed. Is this version of firefox to old to have that, or is it just missing? What can I do to get my new tabs to open with a Google search engine. This is on my 80 year old father's computer so he is not likely to upgrade browsers as I would on my home computer. Thank you for any help with this.

The new tab page (about:newtab) wasn't introduced until a later version of Firefox (iirc, ''Firefox 10'') , which is why that pref can't be found.
Sounds like your father picked up some Malware.
Maybe this is what you're dealing with.

Is there any way to use iphone as a backup for images while travelling

Iphone would make a great back up store for digital images taken with a real camera while travelling, if there was a way to transfer full resolution image files from a PC to iphone via USB. When I am travelling light, I dont carry a laptop with itunes and the iphone doesn't appear as a drive when connected to a computer. Not sure why the file system is hidden.
Any ideas for this?

The iphone does not support disk mode, which would allow it to be used for storage.
At present, I know of no way to do what you want.

Has anyone downloaded any video podcast to iphone and get only the audio?

Hey,
I downloaded few video podcasts. I had turned on Music Video, Podcast and Video syncs. But I see only the first frame of the video podcast and I can only hear the audio... no video... Has anyone faced the same problem and has anyone been able to solve this?

This works the same way on the video iPod; a video podcast will show up both under 'Podcasts' and under 'Video'. If you play it under Podcasts, you only get the audio; if you play it under Video you see the video. Music videos work the same way.
Presumably this is useful if you just want to listen to the audio track of a video podcast and want to avoid the battery hit of displaying video you're not going to be watching. Frankly, though, it's confusing. Particularly on the iPhone, it'd be better to have a show video/don't show video option that you can select while the track is playing.
