Apple Watch band is too short for me

I've checked out size of band for Apple Watch and all of these model are too short for me. Even Classic Buckle that is the longest type of band in all family is still not fit. My wrist size is 230mm. Feel so sad...... Hope Apple will made longer band size in the next gen.

Let me try this again. (This is for a stainless 38).
I saw the specs on the band. I tried to use a tape measure to determine if it would fit, and I should have had help as that is hard to do alone. But is seemed alright, and I ordered the watch.
I am a watch junkie. I have never had a problem like this. You come to expect a certain "standard" when you buy a watch, and ALL of my watches have a longer
strap, and I guess (Shame on me) I assumed so would the Apple Watch.
The band fits, so to speak, but the part that is left after you pass it though the buckle, is not long enough, and the band keeper-loop thingey does not have enough band to keep it in place. Therefore you are constantly having to slide the loop back over it to keep it in place.
I could send it back, but you might imagine how I feel about that. I made sure I got mine on the 24th because I stayed up and ordered it right after midnight on the 10th. I really wanted the watch.

Watch bands are too short.

What solution does Apple offer to those of us who need watch bands longer than 215mm?
Can extra links for the link band be purchased?
Can the Link band actually be extended past the length of 215mm? (I ask because I know that the links progressively get narrower along the length of the band).
Are there any Apple employees around that have done their training and can answer the above?

This is a user to user technical support forum. If any Apple employees ARE here, they would be unable to provide you with any information other than what Apple has already make public on their website. I'm sure there will be plenty 3rd party accessories for the watch, including bands. Meantime, you'll just have to wait and see.

Apple Watch Band too small. Will there be a XL size?

As I looked through the options for the Apple Watch I was really pumped to get one. This was until I saw Apples band size chart. Immediately I realized that the band sizes would never fit my wrist. It is frustrating to think that Apple has alienated a whole group of customers because they decided not to make a XL Apple Watch Band. I guess my question to Apple is will there be a XL Apple Watch Band?
Its frustrating to think that I may not be able to pre order my device because of small bands.

I have read several comments like this - even mentioned it when I went to the Apple Store for my try-on. (BTW my wrist problem was that mine is around 170mm, which is at one end of the Leather Loop and the other end of the other size - glad I did not pre-order the larger band like I planned.) Anyway, the two people I spoke to said that (1) yes they have heard many comments/complaints about no larger sizes and (2) they have not heard of any plans by Apple at this point in manufacturing larger bands. However, they did say that there will be bands coming out by third party manufacturers and then (and I) would be very surprised if no one made an effort to fill this market if Apple does not decide to.

Channel length too short for calculation

I've just switched from 9.1 to 2010 and I was told that our VBS scripts wouldn't need updating - not so it seems.
I have the following piece of code:
Call ChnAlloc("Input PSD")
L1=Cno("RealPart")
L2=Cno("ImaginaryPart")
Call FormulaCalc("Ch('Input PSD'):=Ch(L1)^2+Ch(L2)^2")
but this doesn't work anymore. I get an error message saying that channel 7 (Input PSD) is too short for calculation. Previously I would have checked the data matrix but I can't find this anymore so I assume DIAdem works in a different way know. The help files suggest that the channel length option for ChnAlloc is optional so I don't understand why it thinks the channel is too short.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks, Si.

Hi SI,
You only need a minor addition, and you get the benefit that all new channels can have their length(s) dynamically changed. Please add this line of code after creating the channel and before the FormulaCalc() command:
ChnLength("Input PSD") = NeededNumberOfRows
Back in the dark days of the DIAdem memory matrix, DIAdem would by default launch with 60 static channels of exactly 8196 rows each. As you apparently know, you could customize the memory matrix to have fewer or more channels, and you could change their static lengths assigned when DIAdem launched. The fully dynamic channel lengths are a vast improvement, but it does mean that for FormulaCalc() commands you need to tell the channel to be big enough first. Interestingly, none of the ANALYSIS commands require you to do explicitly set the channel length before writing to them-- just the channel calculator.
Ask if you have any further trouble,

Apple watch bands

I see the different Apple watch bands can be purchased seperatly. Can these bands be used with the sport watch or can only the sport bands be used with the sport watch? Also, will the watches be available at other retail stores like the phones? Thanks!

The sport watch comes with 2 different sized bands. So we know that they are replaceable. The dimensions look the same between the two, the regular watch being heavier with the stainless steel. Just wondering if the standard bands will fit the sport watch. I really don't want to buy the more expensive watch to get the band I want.

Clips too short for transistions?

i am adding images to my movie from the photos tab and when i add a transistion between them, it says clip too short for transistions. now why is that? i added transistions between other images in the beginning, so why is it giving me problems right now?

Well then how come when i click apply on the ken burns setting for the picture, it shows 9:01, sometimes 10:01, then i add the transistion, and it says too small.. heres the new thing that just happened, i added a reflection theme and added an image in the drop zone.. now when i add a transistion right after it to a clip that shows 10:12, it says the previous clip must have a duration of 9:01. the theme itself shows 7:01.. so how do i change the duration of the theme?

Apple Watch band too small

I asked the Apple chat people if the Tim Cook Genius Division was working on a solution that will allow those of us that don't fit Apple's idea of who should buy and wear their Apple Watch, a way to wear the watch rather than put it in our pocket with our iPhone. They told me that there are no plans at this time to customize the Watch. I explained that I don't want to customize it I would just like to be able to wear it as it is marketed, on my wrist. They told me that in essence that would be customizing it. I am hoping that someone will realize that it would be very easy to make a Milanese Loop band longer or any of the bands for that matter. Why frustrate their public and lose sales. It doesn't make sense. I guess we can duct tape them on our wrist until young enthusiastic entrepreneurs start marketing bands that fit us. Now that will be customizing.

I visited the Apple Store today for my 15 minute try-on session. Was very disappointed that every single band that I tried on did not fit. I could not get my hand through the Milanese loop, the Black Leather band was too small by two holes and the Black magnetic link band actually fit but as soon as I started to bend my wrist, the band got looser and looser and then would just open and fall off. Under normal all-day wear, I would surely loose the watch with this band because it does not loop around enough for my wrist.
What a shame that they are not making bands for people with larger wrists bones, fat wrists, skinny wrists, whatever! They should accommodate all size people even if they only have those specialized sizes in very limited quantities. If I have to wait 2-3 months for it, so be it! at least I can still get one.

Can you use any Apple watch band on any Apple watch as long as the face size in the same?

I was told you can only use the Sport bands on the Sport watches but that the Apple Watch and Apple Edition can take any band, is there any truth in this?

If you go to the Watch site (on the menu bar above) and look at the different models you see that some models use a more integrated method of band attachment. Others use a bar for attachement that allows more flexibility in band use.

Apple Watch does it make provisions for left-handers? either a mirror image version, or the ability to rotate the display 180º allowing it to be worn on the right wrist and controlled with the left hand?

Does the apple Watch accommodate left-handed people? is there a mirror image option, or can the display be rotated 180º, allowing the watch to be worn on the right wrist, and manipulated with the left hand? Just wondering if you have thought about that?
Thanks,
Rick
PS: none of the "communities " accessible to me seemed appropriate for this question, so I am posting here, hoping someone will forward it on to the proper place in Apple.

There's a option when setting up the watch to set it up for left handed users. That and the easily user revisable straps will accommodate lefties.

Apple Watch Bands, information and pre-orders

Will it be possible to get the silver aluminum apple watch with a black sport band? And what time in which time zone will the Apple Watch pre-orders open? And how much storage will the apple watch have?

We have no more information than you do on the Watch. We are users just like you, so only have the same public info that is available to everyone at this point.
Sorry,

Apple watch band option

I want a space gray apple watch (not the sport) with the black sport band. is there a way to pick the color of you watch with the band you want?

Not yet. They aren't out and Apple hasn't started taking orders. Then you will find out. We don't know.

Apple Watch bands interchangeable

Sorry...I saw a note to put Apple Watch questions in the iPhone board, so I am.
I'm planning on buying the Apple Watch Sport. Are all the bands interchangeable or just the Watch Sport bands? I'm looking to get one of the leather bands but prefer space gray over stainless steel.

Aux cable for Mini Cooper too short for Iphone.

Just purchased a Mini Cooper and the AUX cord that connects the Iphone to the Bluetooth is too short to reach my vehicial mount. I need a longer cord or an extention. Anyone have any ideas?

You said it was an aux cable. nothing you said indicated it was proprietary in any way. If it is not an aux cable, but a dock cable, those are usually proprietary to the auto manufacturer. If they don't have anything, try e-bay, but beware the cheap chinese junk out there.

Apple TV Picture now too big for the 16/9 screen, wrong resolution ?

Now that I've added a new Samsung Home Theatre system to my new Samsung 46" HDTV, the Apple
TV picture is displaying way too big, cutting off about 1/2 the picture!?! The resolution seems to be set wrong ( 720 ?). The other inputs DVD and DirectTV display OK. I have the TV set for 16x9. It was working fine before I plugged the AppleTV into the new Home Theatre System. I then tried replugging the AppleTV directly into the TV's other HDMI port but the problem still remains.I can't find any way of readjusting the resolution. Any suggestions ?

Problem solved. It's a faulty HDMI port on my TV.
I have been plagued by intermittent random problems with my old Apple TV, especially where there was a blank screen but audio could be heard - solved by a restart. Then today I got the new Apple TV and it displayed as though there was overscan (actually - way more than overscan should cause now that I can see what it SHOULD look like). The final piece of the puzzle was trying to play content purchased previously on iTunes - no HDCP. Finally something pointing to the HDMI connection. I did a bit of troubleshooting - swapping cables, swapping HDMI ports and problem solved. Of the 3 HDMI ports on my TV - when the Apple TV is plugged into port 2 I get this massive overscan and HDCP doesn't work. In ports 1 and 3 it works perfectly. Thankfully the problem with the new Apple TV was consistent enough for me to easily diagnose the problem - unlikely the random nature of the issues I was having with the old Apple TV. Time for a new TV - hurrah! (it's under warranty...)

Charge cord too short for Lumia 900.

The charge cord for the Lumia 900 should be a little longer. Even with the plugin right off the side of my bed the charge cord is not long enough for me to be able to read off of my Lumia 900 without needing to unplug my phone from the charger. (To read news articles the phone has to be in the portrait orientation with the Windows home button at the bottom. My Samsung Focus charge cord length was long enough.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks Kosh and Android for the replies.
Basically the usb charge cord supplied by Nokia for my Lumia 900 is not long enough to be able to charge and use the phone at the same time. (My battery usually doesn't last a full day.) Nokia supplies a short cord compared to other manufacturers. I believe the charge cord supplied should be longer to equal what other brands supply.
I would buy a longer usb charge cord but Nokia does not offer one and I am concerned I may not find a good quality one and it may wear out the usb port on my phone prematurely. Plus I will be upgrading my phone soon.
