Apple... next time you promote a product being 32 GBs.. let it be 32GBs.

Apple.
First let me say the best creation for my fingers was the Iphone, But I have to complain. 2 Years ago I bought a iphone4 with 16 GBs because I thought I wouldnt be storing that much stuff on my phone. But I filled it up, and at first it wasnt a big deal til it became a big deal. Then I realized I needed more space so I decided to go with the 32GB Iphone5. But the thing I never noticed on both phones was that I never got what I asked for. I bought a 16GB phone but I only got 13 of GBs for my usage. with my 32 GBs i only got 27 GBs... Please for the next phone. Have all your APPLE associated Mandatory applications on a separate Memory chip so us the consumer can get what we want.. Now I got 24 GBS filled on my phone and I am totally limited to adding music, or recording video with my phone. Because I'm 8GB short of what I was sold..
Other than that.
Very Satisfied IphoneZombie.

It all comes down to math (Think Base-2 numbering system) and how much music you really want to have on your phone.
Plus, we've been experiencing this since the dawn of the computer.
Back when 128MB of flash storage was expensive, the formatted capacity was ~115-120MB depending on the maker.
16GB is more than enough for me because I have music streaming services and unlimited data plans
So lighten up, live a little, and enjoy your iPhone for all it's made to be.

  • The Nordins - Options for the next time you need a customer!

    The headline is from an email we received: "Verizon - Options for the next time you need customer service!"  Well, we changed it, just slightly.   Well, on 6/20/2013 we had the TV down; it was said to be a piece of video equipment that went down.  We could not get anything on the TV until next day.  The sad part is that we were watching the Heat-Spurs game and it quit just 1min-36sec. prior to the end of the game.  Then, we could not watch our daily Netflix show we watch every evening before going to bed.  So in calling twice, we found out about the video equipment problem.  But typically Verizon, they replaced the equipment and thought nothing about the customer that actually lost the reception!!  How about crediting us for the time "off the air".  You can't have the cake and eat it too.  Then, Verizon sends us emails about the bill, customer service, etc. but there is no way for us to email them back!!  Why do they think my time is less valuable then theirs; having to call their customer service and to wait a long time for answer by someone in "God knows where country".  What does that tell you about the customer service commitment!  It's like, yeah you are one of the slob users that keep paying the bills for lousy service.   Perhaps it's time for all of us to switch off our TV's for one or two days a week and not pay them for "our time off the grid".  Having some couple of thousand TV's off twice a week may shake them up a bit.   So here is my idea.  Establish an email address where we can reach anyone in customer service directly, in our own state, not somewhere 1000 and more miles away.  Additionally, if something is down, does not matter what time of the day, stand up for it and give the customer their credit due.  Thanks for reading

    It all depends how you use it.
    Once the initial break in period is over, like the first year, it should run just fine as long as you don't abuse it, don't let it overheat, keep the dust out etc.
    Do get the AppleCare as it's very expensive to repair a Mac.
    Some tips:
    1: Avoid using the built in keyboard and trackpad as much as possible. I know what's the use, but it's these too area's, the USB ports and the Superdrive that experience the most wear and tear.
    2: If you do use the built in keyboard, take off your watch and jewelry, it scratches. mars, reacts with the case and discolors it.
    3: The keybord is a bit weak compared to regular PC desktop keyboards, so use a wireless one, but have a wired one around for emergencies. The keyboard collects dirt, grime, hair, dust etc, underneath, you might want to have a light cover over the keys but still let air get underneath.
    4: Be gentle with the audio ports and the Superdrive, don't use your computer for watching DVD's. The Superdrive is important for recovering the machine with the installer disk which also must be well taken care of.
    5: A GOOD case, like a MacTruck or a padded one will absorb the shocks if dropped while transporting.
    6: The biggest concern is other people, they just don't handle things with care because it's not theirs and they are ignorant or even spiteful of the money you spent to have a quality machine.
    7: Clone your boot drive to a external regularly, in fact have two, one staggered back in time a few weeks, it's hold option bootable in case your hard drive dies. Free cloning software like Carbon Copy Cloner or the commercial version Superduper does the job well.

  • Hi, with mix16 pro app, can anyone tell me when you set different audio levels for different tracks, does the app remember the level set the next time you use it?  Or does it default to the original setting when you power down after a show?  Thanks!

    Hi
    I use backing tracks for some songs with a live band and we are having some issues with levels.  Some are higher than others etc.  I use i pad to run the tracks.  I am looking for an app that where I can control the levels better.  Ideally, an app where I can set the level of each track to a desired level and leave it at that level for good.  Mix16 Pro  seems to do that but I wonder does it save the setting as I do not want to set the levels every time I use it.
    Thanks

  • My laptop takes an extremely long time to start up after being shut down

    When I try to start up my computer it takes between 3-5 mintues to start back up again. 
    MBP 15"
    Purchased in Ocotber of 2011
    Any ideas?

    There are probably a lot of items being started when the computer does. You can open up "System Preferences", click on "Users & Groups", and then click on "Login Items" for a particular user. If you don't see anything suspicious, or anything that can cause long startup issues, navigate to (by pressing shift-command-G when in Finder, and yes, the ~ is necessary):
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents (can also get here by typing /Users/<account name>/Library)
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    /Library/LanuchDaemons
    /Library/StartupItems
    /System/LaunchAgents
    /System/LaunchDaemons
    /System/StartupItems
    If you don't see anything in there that would cause the "long" boot up time, then it is most likely something else (obviously...). If you have FileVault2 enabled, causing your entire hard drive to be enabled for Full Disk Encryption, that might increase the boot up time by a small amount. If you feel that your computer still is booting up way too slowly for your liking, then there could be some helpful indications during bootup. The next time you startup your mac, hold down the Command+V buttons on your keyboard, and you will see lines of text rather than your usual grey screen with the Apple logo

  • Last RoboHelp HTML v9 Workspace (formerly called Environment) does not reload next time RH9 loads

    Hey all, thanks in advance for any info you can provide.  All the RoboHelp references below relate to us using the respective version of RoboHelp HTML, and on my XP SP3 pc.
    I have worked with RH7, RH8, and now RH9, but RH9 is not behaving the same as the others as it relates to Workspace (formerly called Environment in prior RoboHelp versions).  In the other versions, the last screen arrangement/Workspace always reloaded the next time you loaded RH, but with RH9, it doesn't. 
    The previous “environment”, now called “Workspace” (upper right corner) does not remain what it looked like when you last closed it, the next time you open Robo.  It resets to some weird default EVERY time, instead of looking like the last time you closed it…even though it shows you with a checkmark that it did load it (but it didn’t!)!
    My Mini-work around is, I clicked “Workspace” (upper right corner) and loaded my environment file (mark.rhs), which loads the screens the way I want them, then did a SAVE to one I called “default” and since it shows you the last two you opened, each time I load Robo, I take turns loading them…no biggie, but it just saves some time so you can choose between YOUR two named files that do the same thing screen rearranging.
    Is this a known issue in Robo9?  Is there a fix?  I have uninstalled/reinstalled many times for other reasons, but this issue has always been present, even installing the latest patches.  Thanks in advance for any feedback.

    to Peter Grainge:  Sorry for any confusion...as you state, I expect to see the same exact workspace I left when I last closed RoboHelp and if I reload my workspace/environment and all looks well, I expect to see that same screen placement the next time RH loads...but that does not always happen.
    I did what you suggested and closed several of the extraneous Pods that appeared, closed RH, and it did save those settings...BUT I then loaded my saved workspace, closed RH, and the settings were not saved as the same funky screen placement appeared.  After checking, it is not the RH defaulted workspace, but actually my saved workspace plus the "See Also", "Review Pane", and Resource Manager" Pods, which I do not use.  So, as a test, I closed those 3 Pods and resaved over one of my saved workspace files.  I now get a much better percentage of the screens being what I expect each time I load RH, but for some reason, there are times that I reload my saved workspace, exit RH, and the next time I load RH, that funky screen placement is present again.  I had an environment issue with RH8, as it could never save the windows the way I needed them, and I had to move them each tim...maybe it was due to migrating from the previous version and it using the migrated/modified .rhs file...or multiple versions installed...who knows?  ;->
    Thanks for your reply!

  • Time Machine backup isn't being recognized in Migration Assistant

    I have an external hard drives with 3 partitions: 2 are TM backups of my two computers, and the other is just a file storage partition.
    I am trying to migrate files onto a brand new hard drive from a TM backup. I formatted the new HD and installed OS 10.9 on it, but when I open Migration Assistant, it only recognizes the other computer's TM backup and the file storage partition, not the Macbook TM backup partition. Additionally, this partition (when I view it on my other computer) shows up with the orange USB icon rather than the green TM icon.
    Does this mean my backup is corrupted? Is there a way to fix this without going back into my laptop and switching back to the old hard drive and wiping out the old backup and backing the whole thing up again?

    You won't be able to transfer data in Setup or Migration Assistant from a snapshot of a system running a newer major version of OS X; for example, 10.10 to 10.9.
    A possible reason for backups not to be available in Migration Assistant is that the computer doesn't have a name, or the name is corrupt. Open the Sharing preference pane and check the name. If you can't do that, reset the PRAM. Credit to ASC member Csnote for this observation.
    Most likely, some folders were excluded from the backups as the result of a failed or aborted software installation.
    Starting from a clean installation of OS X, set up a new administrator account and log in. Enter Time Machine and press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible.* Select the one you want and navigate to your home folder (in the Users folder at the top level of the old startup volume.)
    You should now be able to restore your user data. I suggest you do this in two stages. Quit all applications except the Finder before you begin.
    Restore all the visible items at the top level of the home folder.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Enter Time Machine and restore all items in the Library folder. Log out and log back in as soon as the restore is complete.
    Any other invisible folders or files at the top level of the home folder that you want to preserve will have to be restored separately. For most users, that isn't necessary.
    You'll have to reinstall all third-party applications from scratch, or restore them from another kind of backup, if you have one.
    You'll have another problem because you erased the startup volume. The next time you back up, Time Machine won't recognize any files as being the same as they were before, and will make a full copy of all files. There might not be enough space on one or more of the backup volumes for that. There are different ways of dealing with that situation, depending on your needs. The easiest way is to set the backup drives aside, if possible, until you're sure you'll no longer need the data on them, then erase them and start over. Meanwhile start a new backup on one or more empty storage devices. If that solution isn't workable for you, ask for instructions.
    *If you don't see any snapshots in Time Machine, exit the time-travel view and then hold down the option key while selecting
              Browse Other Backup Disks...
    from the Time Machine menu, which has an icon that looks like a clock running backwards. Select the backups of the computer by its previous name. If you don't have the Time Machine menu, open the Time Machine preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked
              Show Time Machine in menu bar

  • Can print one time, next time locks up on spooling to printer... 8.1 64 bit, M476dw

    Bought a M476DW about a month ago. Hooked it up to the network and installed the drivers on several machines and everything worked fine. Then last week had to re-install 4 of the laptops - just did a reset and reinstalled...
    Windows 8.1 64 bit,
    with a local install of Office 2013 64 bit and all updates.
    This was a clean install on all the laptops (Surface Pro 3's) most connected via dock.
    Installed the full-driver package from the website.
    All machines are set to private network with no firewall. No antivirus running except for WIndows Defender.
    After this install we had a new problem we did not have before. After you print the first document, the next time you print it locks up and says "spooling to printer".  No other application can print on the computer after the first document. The only fix is to reboot.
    Fixs attempted:
    Uninstalled and reinstalled (on all the computers)
    Installed the newest firmware - M476_Color_MFP_Series_FW_Update-20150112
    disabled the notification software
    disabled firewall
    installed new network cable
    set ip to static
    ran HP Print and Scan Doctor - Just says there is a problem (print queue), says reboot machine, then doesn't see a problem.

    Hey ,  Welcome to the HP Support Forum community.  I see that you're unable to install one of your HP 900 Inkjet Printers on an 8.1 machine.  I would like to assist.  I have some suggestions that might help.  There is another way you can install the printer.  Typically when users want to use their older printers with newer systems that don't have supported drivers I tend to advise they try alternate drivers.  Thus, I recommend you try the following steps, using the Deskjet 9800 driver instead:  Disconnect the printer's usb connection from the PC. Press the Windows Key + r.  Type in Control Panel and press Enter.  Next, click on Devices and Printers. Click 'Add a printer'. The 'Add Printer' window should open. Click on 'Add a local printer'.Click 'Use an existing port'.Click the 'Use an existing port' drop-down list; select LPT1: (Printer Port), and click 'Next'.Click the Windows Update button and wait for the updates to complete.In the Install the printer driver window, under Manufacturer click HP, and then search for the Deskjet 9800 driver under Printers . Once you find the desired driver,  restore the printer's usb-to-PC connection. The Installing Device Driver Software window should briefly display in the bottom right corner of the computer screen.  This is normal - wait for it to disappear.Click the Cancel button on the Add Printer window. Rejoice! Your printer's installed? Please let me know the result of your troubleshooting by responding to this post.  If I have helped you resolve the issue, feel free to give me a virtual high-five by clicking the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and clicking to accept this solution. Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.  Have a great day!

  • Number of times you can sync to a new library?

    My work computer was stolen this week for the second time and I'm wary of syncing my ishuffle to my home computer again because I'm sure the last time it warned me that you could only change the library it was associated to a specific number of times.
    Since I know I've changed it at least 3 times, I'm concerned I won't have enough left to convert to my home computer temporarily until a new work one is delivered and then connect it to the new work one (my home computer doesn't have enough room to store any music on it, so I can't use it as a permament dock for all my music), this restricts the number of times I could swap it over.
    So does anyone know the exact number of times you can switch between libraries?
    And what happens after that - does your ishuffle stop working completely?
    Also - if I connect it to my home computer to charge it temporarily, will this erase any songs in it (my home computer has been authorised to play the music I've purchased but there are other songs I've ripped from my CDs)?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    There is NO limit.

    NOTHING.

    In Settings UNcheck "Open iTunes when this iPod is connected" (don't forget to click "apply"). The NEXT time you connect the shuffle just to charge it. iTunes will NOT be involved (unless, of course, it's already running...).
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

  • I changed my apple id and password online, next time i turned on my computer icloud pops up asking for a password with my old apple id.  i enter my password and it doesnt work, how do i change my iCloud id to my updated apple id?

    I changed my apple id and password online.  The next time I turned on my computer, iCloud popped up asking for a password, but displaying my old apple id.  I tried signing in, but I think because it is my old apple id listed it doesnt let me.  Anyone have any idea how I can update the iCloud apple id and password to reflect that of my apple id?

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    my Iphone 5(purchased in Jan 2013) has suddenly developed a multicolored hue in the center of the **** screen. it looks pathetic and totally whacked out. Its rainy and humid where I stay this time of the year. Apple guys are you reading this? does the management go through this website.? Hey Apple guys, can you replace my phone for me.Its so slippery and slides out very easily from my hands. I have owned smartphones before but yours is a real slimy slider. so while I was shooting pics in varanasi in march it fell out of my palm (it was drizzling) and the rear screen (the section next to the camera) kinda cracked real ugly and obviously due to this the camera is behaving kinda crazy too. can you guys help me out here.?

    If your phone is defective (aside from the accidental damage) Apple will fix or replace the phone. You saud you purchased the phone in January so it is still under warranty. 
    If you have an Apple Store in your area, make a Genius Bar appointment.

  • HT204053 If I start using a new apple ID will I lose all my old purchases the next time I sync?

    Hello,
    I'm really, really confused and I'd appreciate some advice.  I came here after searching for information on merging two apple IDs so let me start my saying that I understand that I cannot do this.  I get that.  The FAQ says I just need to start using my preferred Apple ID from now on.  How exactly do I do this?  Is it as simple as logging in with the preferred ID next time I purchase something?  If I do that, what would happen to all my purchases under the old Apple ID the next time I sync my devices?
    Here is the background to my situation:
    I created an Apple ID when I first got an iPod many years ago.  It was my e-mail address at the time.  All my iTunes purchases have been made with that ID.
    I bought my first Mac a couple of years ago.  At the same time I purchased a MobileMe subscription.  My MobileMe subscription was later converted to an iCloud account.
    I'm no longer with the ISP that provided me with the e-mail address used for my first Apple ID.  My only e-mail account is now my me.com address.
    I tried to change my Apple ID to my new e-mail address but it said it couldn't be done because my me.com e-mail is already in use.
    All my iTunes receipts go to my old e-mail address that I no longer have access to.  I'd like my receipts to go to my me.com address.
    I have a MacBook Pro, iPhone 4S, iPod Touch (all synced through iCloud), I also have an iPod Shuffle.
    In order to get my iTunes and App Store receipts to go to my me.com address, I think the FAQs are telling me that I need to start using my me.com address as my preferred Apple ID.  It seems to gives me an option of changing my e-mail address for communications but as soon as it realises that it is a me.com address it says I can't do it.
    I'm concerned that if I just make make my next purchase with my me.com ID the next time I sync my devices I'll just have one song on there rather than my entire library.  Can somebody please guide me through this?

    You need to retain the ID you are currently using for iTunes in order to retain access to your purchases. You should go to http://appleid.apple.com and log in using the iTunes ID, and add a contact address there - you could get a GMail account (free). You may be able to forward mail on from GMail to your @me.com address, I'm not sure about that.
    You can continue to use the ex-MobileMe ID for iCloud - there is no problem about using two IDs in this way.
