Are there any ipod classes or phone support besides apple?

Like many people I'm trying to get dvd movies to watch on my ipod. I've looked up and down this board for two days which has been somewhat helpful but I have yet to be able to rip my dvd and put it on my ipod. I'm sick of wasting entire days on this problem. I would happily pay for a class or some phone support besides apple which does not support this problem. What the f#!k I've already spent a fortune in time with no end in site. Also it would be nice to get the hang of all the features without having to suffer through the frustrating of having to figure it out one post at a time. I think I would just sell my ipod if it wasnt a gift.

The IPOD was designed and is sold to support video content available through the Apple Store. Apple never said they would support every video converting program made by anyone trying to make a buck or freeware that confuses 98 percent of its users. Getting videos on the IPOD is not hard. For a 40 dollar investment, you won't even need to search on any web site for your answer. And flash the company even has a trial to download and flash they have been in business for over 5 years and have made convertors to support over 265 different devices and lastly they have an actual support site manned by folks that designed the programs. I do understand your frustration, but when you look in the wrong places for so long you will get frustrated. The product is great! And does what it was advertised to do!

Are there any Java classes which generates UI Maps based on UI Hints

Hi,
I would like to know how UI Hints work and how UI Maps are generated based on UI Hints.
Are there any java classes behind?

Can someone help me on how to do this?

Are there any know issues with using multiple (2) apple tv's in the same household??

I'm thinking of getting a second Apple TV. Are there any known issues with using multiple (2) apple tv's in the same household? Thank you in advance.

No, shouldn't have any problems

Are there any faster wireless routers compared to the Apple Extreme Base Station?

Are there any faster wireless routers compared to the Apple Extreme Base Station?

The speed of wireless is limited by the technology. If you are using 802.11n wireless at 5 GHz, and assuming you have a strong connection, the speed will approach the 270-300 Mbps range. Other routers will achieve similar results if they have 5 GHz capability.
As far an ethernet connection is concerned, the Gigabit ethernet ports on the AirPort Exteme will provide top performance, along with other routers that have Gigabit etherent ports.

Are there any good basic/feature phones that have been discontinued?

My brother currently has the Samsung Intensity II and it's giving him a lot of problems. After troubleshooting with tech support it is best for him to replace the phone. The insurance deductible is $45 but the phone will likely be refurbished. I am seeking a non-smartphone for him that I can purchase via eBay or Craigslist. Because he is 16, he wants some type of smartphone. Preferably the iPhone or a low/mid-grade Android phone. I won't allow him to get a smartphone until he gets a job and pays for the phone and monthly data plan.
I am sort of disappointed in the selection of basic phones on the Verizon website - there are only 7 phones under $100. It seems backwards that there are 23 smartphones under $100. The conspiracy theorist in me would think this is a ploy to coax customers to move towards smartphones but I digress. I have been looking at the Samsung Brightside and the ZTE Adamant (discontinued - not offered on vzw.com) and they seem pretty cool and reasonably priced on eBay. Are there any other basic or feature phones that you would recommend [including discontinued and upcoming phones]?
I would rather not purchase a phone directly through Verizon so that it does not extend the contract or interfere with his upgrade date (to ensure that he will be able to afford the phone of his choice when he is ready).

Another vote for the Env3 - son and daughter both had them (18 and 21) and they were more than adequate phones and worked well for them. My son (now nearing 24) is still using his though he is eligible for an upgrade now - he likes it and sees no reason to change until it quits on him.
The Alias (original) was a good phone for my daughter before her Env3, and I really enjoyed my LG Voyager, touchscreen. None of the phones require a data plan, if you can find them.

Are there any issues when using AirPlay on an Apple TV that is using a shared internet connection?

I am currently in a hotel and I have my MacBook Pro, iPad, and Apple TV (2nd gen). The hotel I'm in has both wired and wireless internet connections. I cannot directly connect my Apple TV to either connection because the hotel connections require you to agree to some terms and conditions that the Apple TV can't access. To further complicate things the ethernet connection in my room doesn't work at all. So the solution I found to at least connect the Apple TV to the internet was this: using my MacBook Pro, I connected to the hotel wireless connection (to bypass the hotel internet's T&C). I then shared that wireless connection via ethernet to the Apple TV. It works. I can watch YouTube and Netflix but I can't take advantage of AirPlay. I've updated, restored, and reset the Apple TV numerous times, but no luck. Are there any settings or connections I'm missing?

Airplay from what? iTunes or iPad?
I assume iPad - in this setup the iPad and AppleTv will be unlikely to be able to see each other on the hotel network even if both are connected wirelessly. If they can and you don't have a user/room specific login I'd be concerned about other users seeing my devices too. These things are generally designed for single user access not to create your own local network. I suspect in the T&Cs for the wi-fi service it may preclude sharing the internet connection with another device, but if it works....

Are there any portable e. readers that support Mac software???

Does anyone know of any portable readers that work w/ Mac? For example, Sony makes a fantastic one but it only supports Windows! Open to any suggestions...thanks!!

There are many "readers" as you call them for different file formats listed on Versiontracker.
One included with some Macs, which you can download is Zinio's:

If you are talking about reading software for the blind, Mac OS X has built-in software in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Universal Access for Text to Speech.

Are there any known good home phone systems for the Home Phone Connect

I've had the Home Phone Connect now for several months. I have had a Panasonic KX-TG7641 for a good while now. I bought this system to connect a cell phone through the Bluetooth to make a receive calls at home. This cell phone stayed docked in the charger next to the Panasonic base station. There were a few extra steps involved in order to make calls using the Bluetooth and every time my mother-in-law visits it is an extensive training process to show her how to use the phone. Every. Time. She. Makes. A. Call.
I saw the HPC and figured I could simplify the system and since the cell we kept connected was off contract, I got the HPC for free and signed up for 2 years with it. This was a mistake. While I can always hear the callers on the line, they sometimes report that I am too garbled to understand. Today I knew I was going to be on the phone on hold for a while, so I used my home phone handset for comfort (vice holding my Galaxy up to my head for an extended period of time)
After a 30 minute on-hold with the Veterans Administration I finally got through to an operator who informed me she could barely hear me/broken and garbled. Where I have my HPC at it is right in a window and I have steady 2 bars on it always. I told her I could call back on my cell phone, but she insisted we power through it so I wouldn't have to wait again on hold. Well we eventually made it through the call.
After hanging up I used my Google powers to see what the issue it/how to fix it. It appears that the people that have issues when using the HPC also have Panasonic phones/base stations connected to it. This might be because Panasonic phones are widely available and are the most common ones in use, but it might also be in that something is incompatible between the 2 systems. Odd, since the way it connects is similar to an old POTS. Could it have something to do with the DECT 6.0 that hey use (on the 1.9GHz band) where other older devices use standard 2.4 or 5.8?

Thank you for the tip. Sorry if it's the wrong forum. I don't post here often. I searched for the Home Phone Connect under devices and found it under "Other" so figured this was the best place to post it. Could you point me to the correct place for the HPC discussions?
I'll double check later when I'm home on my computer to see iff the problems being reported are all using the DECT 6.0 (1.9GHz). Might be causing some interference of some sort.

Are there any iPod Speakers that do NOT charge your iPod when connected?

Hi there,
I'm looking for an affordable iPod speaker that does not charge or gives you the option of not having your iPod charge.
I know people who keep attaching their iPod to the dock speakers that they have, and it constantly keeps charging and that literally killed the battery on their iPod's.
I know there is the Logitech MM32 (connects through headset jack), but not sure if that is compatible with the new Nano 3rd Generation.
Does anyone know of any other speakers that does not charge your iPod while connected (when connected to the wall outlet -> AC) or gives you the iPod not to charge the iPod?
Thanks in advance!

Constantly charging does NOT kill the iPod battery, it is a myth.
Once the battery is charged the main charging stops and it is switched to 'trickle' charge which means it get a slight charge every so often.
There is not problem at all in keeping the iPod topped up, just make sure you discharge it fully approx once a month as per Apple's instructions here :-
http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipods.html
And general battery advice here :-
http://www.apple.com/batteries/
The key is the number of full charge cycles you o through, if you only ever keep topping up the battery then you will not go through full charge cycles very quickly. If you only ever top up the last 5% of the battery then you can do this 20 times and it will only count as 1 charge cycle. Based on the 400 they say you can get from a battery before the capacity drops to 80% that would mean you could top up the battery that last 5% over 400*20=8,000 times.

Are there any skins for the macbook endorsed by Apple?

I really want something that in case it damages my macbook apple will cover it. Plus, I heard how easy the white one scratches and that worries me.

Marware http://www.marware.com/ products seem good, and lots of people are happy with them. They'll leave no residue, and I can't begin to think how they could damage the macbook. They won't, however, prevent all possible damage. Besides, the apple warranty doesn't cover cosmetic issues, or normal wear and tear. Hence, their endorsement or lack thereof of any cosmetic add-ons is irrelevant.
Unless you plan to leave it in the box, you're bound to inflict some minimal amount of wear and tear on the thing, no matter how careful you are. Hey, I agree: it's a pretty machine, but I figure it's meant to be used...
Cheers,

Are there any apps to alter the aspect on Apple TV?

I'm using an iPad Air and an iPhone 4s

it's not widescreen it can't mirror to fill the whole screen it would not be mirror if it could
it would require the ios devices to have data it could not display on it's own screen but could display on the tv
use your remote most tvs have ways of chupping top and buttom of the non widescreen ipage to make it fill the screen
or stredge the image making everbobdy really wide to fill it
but there is no magic way of handling it like an old non widescreen movie would not just turn widescreen when played on your widescreen tv

Hi. Are there any overviews of my purchases from the Apple Store available on your website?

Unfortunately I couldn't find a community for anything other than the App Store, but my question is aimed at the purchases from the Apple Store here on your site. I would like to print out a reciept for my Mac Mini which I bought in 2009.
Tural

If you made your purchase from the online Apple Store, did you create an account? If so you can sign into your account and view the purchases that you have made in the recent past. Unfortunately, the information retained by Apple and available for your viewing only covers the last 18 months.
If you made the ourchase with a bank card, oerhaps you can loctae that information in your bank card records and with that information Apple may be able to locate the purchase for you. Call 1-800-MY-APPLE in the US when you have located the bank information for the purchase.

Are there any tools from NI can generate the pass-through layer (IVI class driver) for IVI class specific driver?

IVI class driver (layer) will provide interchangeable feature for a IVI class specific driver. It would work as a pass-through layer and finally make calls to the IVI class specific driver. Since there could be a lot of functions to be passed through. Are there any tools from NI (Labwindows/CVI or Labview) can do this ?
Thanks a lot.
BTW: the IVI class specific driver interface is generated from Labwindows/CVI tools.

Hi Chris,
Yes, I did. To support interchangability, from my understanding of the IVI specs, there should be another layer IVI-C class driver on top of this IVI class specific driver. As in the IVI‑3.1: Driver Architecture Specification:
Although IVI‑C class drivers export inherent,
base, and extension capabilities, they do not actually implement them. Except
for a few inherent functions and attributes defined exclusively for class
drivers, class driver functions and attributes provide a pass‑through layer to
the IVI‑C specific driver. An IVI‑C specific driver is responsible for
implementing the operations of functions and attributes and for communicating
with the instrument. The IVI‑C specific instrument driver contains the
information for controlling the instrument, including the command strings,
parsing code, and valid ranges of each instrument setting"
So where is this IVI-C class driver and how is it created and communicate with my class specific driver?
Thanks a lot.
Cheers,
IVI‑3.1: Driver Architecture Specification
