Apple phone as clicker?

wouldn't that be cool? being able to read your notes on the screen as you go through your presentation and also being able to use a quicktime-like slider to go to particular slides?
not really on topic, I know, but still, wouldn't that be useful? I think they said it had bluetooth... should work.

I'm not certain it has that much OSX power. Most of the enhancements seem to be about the same capability as Widgets from Dashboard, but that's not too shabby.
That means if you can make a widget that lets you control the functions of keynote, and they release a driver that lets you send information from a 'computer' widget to a 'phone' widget, then you should be able to set this up.
About the only 'programs' I have seen on the interface is the calendar and safari, and perhaps the address book, as well. Even then the address book and calendar couldbe widgets.
We shall have to see, but at least they didn't formally release a "Mac OSX CE" version, just integrated the system with the hardware.
I am, however, interested to see if this thing can handle pdf files, and may consider some iphone-specific templates for the future. That would be darned interesting.

  • How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?

    How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?  I can physically copy the tunes as mp3's but the phone does not seem to be able to play all of them.   Do I need to copy an entire album or can I just pick & choose individual songs?   The phone is question is an LG running who knows what for an operating system.

    AAC is Advanced Audio Coding.  Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD).  More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder).  Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
    You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button.  Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder.  After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version."  You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding.  Hopefully your phone will play that.

    Hello there MizzouTrojan,
    If I understand correctly you want all 6 devices to have access to a single calendar that each device gets notifications for and can edit. You can do that with an private iCloud shared calendar. First sign into www.icloud.com and use these steps from the following article to share a calendar:
    iCloud: Share a calendar with others
    Share a calendar privately
    Click the Share button to the right of the calendar name in the sidebar, then select Private Calendar.
    Note:    You can also share the same calendar publicly. For instructions, see the next task, “Share a calendar publicly.” 
    Type the invitee’s email address in the Add Person field and press Return.
    Click the pop-up menu with the invitee’s name and choose access privileges (View & Edit or View Only). 
    For each person you want to share the calendar with, repeat steps 2 and 3.
    When you’ve invited everyone and set their privileges, click OK.
    Invitation emails are sent from your iCloud email address to the participants you specified.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • How do I copy a music file with artwork to a non Apple phone?  Sometimes it works, sometimes not!

    When I copy MP3 files from iTunes to my non-apple phone, sometimes the artwork goes with the the track and othertimes it doesn't.  Anyone have an idea why this might be?

    General tips on getting stuff sorted in iTunes: Grouping tracks into albums.
    Tips on how to use the scripts at the top of the scripts page.
    The problem is possibly a multiple tags issue... Generally iTunes will write out the tags when you make changes, but sometimes the changes are not apparent in Windows Explorer or third party programs because the files have multiple tags and iTunes only updates one of them.
    Select the tracks in question in iTunes, right-click and use Convert > ID3 Tags > None, repeat at least twice, then use Convert > ID3 Tags > ID3v2.3. You will need to reapply artwork. As long as you've used the CreateFolderArt script first the artwork should still be in the folder, ready to be reinserted by the script after you've cleaned the tags.
    Try your small sample list first.

  • What will happen to my ipad and apple phone if I reset daughters ipad mini to factory settings, we are getting each others messages and mail

    Hi   I have my laptop, ipad and apple 4 phone.  Youngest daughter has ipad mini which I connected to my laptop to download free games, music and photos, now the ipadmini thinks its me and we are getting each others messages etc.     If I reset the ipadmini to factory settings, will this delete and/of effect my Ipad, Apple phone, I don't want everything DELETED on my devices.  HELP
    Thanks

    Yes it would be her device you remove your account from, but she would need an email address to have an Apple ID.
    I guess if it's only messages that you want her to use, you could create an iCloud email address alias and let her use that for messaging.
    First you'd need to create an alias for your iCloud address, you can do this at iCloud.com > mail, click on the gear icon in the bottom left corner and select preferences, then choose the accounts tab. The alias could be her name.
    After creating an alias you will need to add it to her device as an ID for messages, go to settings > messages > send & receive > Add another email.
    While you are there make sure she only sends and receives messages from that address, you also need to ensure the same settings on your devices use anything but that address.

  • I can make calls and send text messages on my new iPhone 5, but incoming calls and texts still go to my old (non-Apple) phone. Is this a problem with the phone set up, or is it a problem with my old carrier or my new carrier?

    I can make calls and send texts on my new iPhone 5,  but all incoming calls and texts are received by my old (non-Apple) phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

    Assuming you have these accounts set up in Mail, open preferences and under Accounts tab, edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Do you have a .mac address in the list? If so, delete it.
    Are you using iCloud?
    For the troubled account, select the correct SMTP server for that account in the box and check the box to use only that server with that account.

    Hi, raneth's boyfriend!
    Unfortunately, iTunes was told to restore all data from an old backup onto the new phone, and that cannot be undone.
    However, prior to this, iTunes 10 would have also asked to make a backup of the phone before doing the restore.  If the user elects to say "yes" to perform the backup, then iTunes would have backed up the phone before erasing it.
    Hopefully, that backup will still be available in iTunes, and if so, it would be backed up under the new phone's name prior to it being erased and restored (if the name of the new phone is different to the name of the old phone).
    To check if iTunes has a backup of the phone prior to the restore, look in the Devices category in iTunes Preferences.  All backups made are timestamped and are identified with the iPhone's name at the time of the backup.  Look for:
    • a backup of the phone using the new phone's name prior to the erase and restore, or
    • a backup with the same date and time as that when the phone was erased and restored (not the date and time AFTER when the phone was erased and restored!).  This may be the case if the new and old phones have the same name.
    If a backup is available, you can erase and restore again using that backup. The phone will be restored with what would hopefully be the original image of the new phone.
    If no backup was made prior to erasing and restoring the phone initially, then there is no way to
    undo it, meaning your phone's original data has been lost.

  • Hello, I just got an iPhone 4S and it seems that the bluetooth function in it doesn't work. I tried few times to pair it to other non Apple phones and it never worked. Does anyone has an idea how to solve the problem? Tks.

    This is not a feature of iPhone, iPad or iOS.
    Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, handsfree telephone
    devices/headsets, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the
    app store and internet tethering where provided by the carrier.
    Other than this it will not connect to a phone/computer/device.  (thanks to ckuan for the wording)

  • Non Apple phones no longer working with iMessage

    I had to reset iMessage on my iPhone and MacBook Pro in order to get it syncing again properly.  I don't know what happened but it just stopped syncing until I reset everything.  Now it is working.  However, I'm noticing that any non Apple phones are showing in Red in iMessage.  These are phones that I had had multiple conversations with successfully in the past, but now it just won't send anything.  I even have the old messages under the Red listed phone that show my previous successes.  Odd.

    Many apple phone users are especially fed up with RSGI Communication , Erandwana, Pune, Maharashtra, India.
    Their service report No. 36679.
    Allthough Mr Punit ( Technical Dept. Apple.) had requested RSGI to chance the device, still RSGI said they do not have the device ( I phone 5, white ,16GB) in stock.
    Today when we contacted them they said they won't be able to replace OR order to Apple unless and until we do not keep the device with them for 3 days.
    Mr Deepak of Technical Dept Apple was contacted who's telephonic Transript as proof is available with us.

    Is there a way to make a video call from my iPhone 4 to a non apple phone? Also is it possible to transfer pics using bluetooth from iPhone to other company mobiles? Its a great phone but sometimes I feel struck inside it.

    You'd need an app like Skype to video call with other phones.
    Data transfer is not supported via bluetooth and iphone to iphone is not supported at all.
