BBM Across Platform, what about the older devices?

Yes, as we all heard is that bbm is coming to android and Iphone. We all know that BB10 does not us BIS and the older devicec need BIS to operate to the full, why can blackberry not open this to all so that i can bbm without BIS on my older device? yesBIS is nice but what about the people that want to use their older phones like the BB10.
Only some features work without BIS, like the excample whatsapp, browser but all the good stuff like Blackberry world are blocked as well as Blackberry Protect, Facebook and so i can go on ....
Let the people that want BIS get it like that and the other that want it without BIS get it like that then Blackberre will be more flexible.
Cant they see they will now loose more customers to the other platforms where they can keep the people on the older native devices ....Please Blackberry UNBLOCK US ....

Yes, 1.19GB of "other" is normal. Normal is a little over 1GB.

Recently had my Q10 stolen, and received a new one. What about the stolen device?

This is more of a generic question, but... since the alternative is to call Verizon and get put on hold, I thought I would poll here first.
When devices are stolen do the carriers put a 'block' on those phones so they cannot be used on the network? Why don't all mobile carriers band together and when phones are unlocked prohibit them from joining any carrier's network? I was away on a trip, and did not have wireless updating turned on, so of course I lost a bit of stuff. It angers me that phones are stolen all the time, people lose data, and thieves win.

I know with VZW and with Sprint...if your device is report stolen it can't be activiated again on their network.

Hi, i'm a new member of this community. I've recently learn about flashback malware and other threats to Mac devices. I've installed the new Mac OS X update for Lion 10.7, and the flashback removal tool. what about the update for Flash Player?

Hi,
i'm a new member of this community. I've recently learn about flashback malware and other threats to Mac devices. I've installed the new Mac OS X update for Lion 10.7, and the flashback removal tool. What about the update for Flash Player? Should i install it? Otherwise, should i permanently remove this app?
I realy need some advice.
Thank's to all.

Be sure to install the latest version of Safari (version 5.1.7) which is available via Software Update (in the Apple menu) if you have not already installed it. This update will automatically disable older versions of Flash when new versions are available, and will instruct you on how to install the latest version on your system. This should help keep your system safe from any vulnerabilities in Flash.
Note that this is only useful if you use Safari, though other browsers have their own update mechanisms you should research and enable or configure to your liking.

How can i transfer my 'internet accounts' to a new(but already in use ) mac , so mail, contacts , agenda , etc. work exactly like on the older device?

i started using a new macbook pro 15" mid 2014.
now i have a lot of different email adressen ( from school , gmail , hotmail , ... ) .
i tried to set them up manually , with succes on the gmail ones . but hotmail doesn't work good, some don't work at all.
hotmail's contacts are missing in contacts app etc.
really annoying.
so i was wondering if maybe i could just import my ' internet accounts ' in whole , to the new computer. through maybe a time machine backup of the older device?
is this possible ?
im talking about the 'internet accounts' not the user account.
thanks in advance !
grt,
Cedric

If I copy my current iTunes library to the new computer, what will happen when I plug my iPod in?
if you copy the iTunes folder from the old to the new Mac, your Touch will just continue to sync with iTunes as if nothing happened.
make sure you copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder).

What is the latest device software?

hi, can you please tell me what is the latest device software official relase for bb 9900 ?

Change logs are the responsibility of the carriers to release, and so many of them just never do so. In general, a later OS level would be "better" than an older one, as it would contain bug fixes and new features/functions that are absent in the older version. But, nothing more exact than that can be provided...it is up to you to choose the OS level you desire to operate on.
Good luck!

What is the earliest device to realistically test iPhone apps on?

I am aware that many of the older devices do not have camera's or flash. However, if a dev creates a 'generic' app that does not utilize those features, what device should he/she realistically 'target' for his app development? We can set our Deployment for iOS 3.1 or whatever, but at the end of the day, that may not make much sense without having some factual statitstic's to rely on.
I would like to purchase an older 'device' to test app's on, such as a 2nd gen iPod (running iOS 3.1), to test with. But, not knowing how many of those devices are still being used, is that a good device to purchase and test with? I'd hate to purchase one only to discover that I should have purchased a later model.
All comments and suggestions are most welcome.
Thanks.

Do you want to test 3.1.x regardless of device ...or...just non-camera devices regardless of iOS version? Which of those meets your definition of 'broader audience'?
I just want to test on non-camera/torch devices. My original app is a gratuity calculator which includes a flashlight and a magnifying glass. As mentioned above, the Lite version will only have the gratutity calculator. So, my Lite goal is to reach as many folks as I can with that particular configuration.
K T wrote:
You can build an app that detects flash and camera and hides them (UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities), but to also do 3.x gets complicated. You may want to build an app that doesn't go below 4.x, and deals with camera/flash missing and simply find someone to test for you. The current simulator has neither
Glad you brought this up because I set the 'Capabilities' to Camera only and the app would not even run on my iP4. All Xcode4 said was 'Finished running on ...'. Re-booting both my iMac and Xcode did nothing to change this. Never figured that out, but because I am targeting only the iP4, I am no longer worried about this, so I removed those build specs. My current Deployment target is 4.0, but I can change that. Thanks for your comments in this regard.
I appreciate the help.

What are the best devices to use in my car to listen to music on my 3rd gen iPod Nano?

What are the best devices on the market today to use in my car to listen to music on my 3rd Gen iPod nano? I currently use the Monster device that plugs into the electrical adapter (former cigarrette lighter!) in the car. It's a pain in the neck to manually search for unused FM stations on a long trip. I want something that automatically searches for unsused FM stations or, better yet, that will allow me to somehow connect the iPod into the CD player or directly to the radio itself. I have a 2004 Toyota Highlander.
Any suggestions for quality after-market products from the Forum?

If you have files with the .m4v or .m4a extension its better to change them to .mp4. The M4 extensions will sometimes download in the browser instead of playing.
A usefull free app for file conversion is Miro...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Movie-Video/Easy-Movie-Player.html
It can quickly convert to all the formats you need to load for html5 playback: MP4, OGG, WebM
If you include these three, fallback to flash will only be required for Internet Explorer V 8 and older. V 9 is supposed to support html5 but I haven't actually seen any proof of this.
Players like flowplayer and JWLongtail are convenient because the control bar icon be customized. This lets you get away from the nasty looking QT control bar.

i want to produce wedding dvds.whats the best software to use...final cut x I'm thinking but what about the quality of the dvd? Can i use idvd?

The only Programms I worked with are DVD Studio Pro and iDVD. You can burn a Video-DVD with Toast but there is no real option to design your Menu. Just a few themes as far as I discovered.
Do you have a Blue Ray Device to burn* the HD-DVD? Are the Bride and Groom able to watch the Blue Ray?
* which is only possible with DVD Studio Pro and not iMovie as far as I know.
This might help
For better quality I would go the Compressor & DVD Studio Pro workflow I just learned.
Export the Movie as is from Final Cut Pro and then use Compressor to encode the File.
Consider delivering the Movie in a different way like a private video on vimeo, a Website or on an SD card which is not really romantic...

Mifi 4510L Mifi Hotspot...is it the network? and what about the firmware update?

I have spent several months trying to seek a solution on the repeated and frequent disconnects from the Verizon wireless network using my Mifi 4510 L. No success. I have conversed with Verizon Wireless "experts" on this matter and have basically been ignored, since they do not have a solution. It has cost me a pretty penny in wireless costs due to lost connections in downloads, etc...for which I do not get any credit from Verizon on my wireless bill...go figure.
I have even been accused by Verizon that the problem is my computer and hardware, even though I have ran several hardware, software, and "real-life" connection checks on other wireless networks with no issues at all. I even have been getting better connectivity when I use my Verizon USB UML290...but I hate having to switch moving my SIM card from the USB Modem to the MIfi4510L...one of these days the SIM card will fail. Verizon has checked the signal strength at my home and work locations (which I already knew as good), but never heard back from them.
Anyway, I have verified that my wireless network adapter works just fine on other wireless networks (no dropouts, etc). I have even upgraded to another Windows Operating System - Windows 7...which is more superior than Vista in dealing with wireless communications. I have implemented quite a number of the solutions provided by other great Verizon Wireless Community members, but the connectivity problems continue to occur.
When I did a review of my wireless hardware logs, I noticed that when I was encountering problems, the dynamically assigned address given to me on the Verizon Wireless network changed quite a bit, even when I was using the same web site. When my wireless connection worked fine, the dynamically assigned address was consistent. This seemed to change when I encounter peak network load times.
I would appreciate a straight answer from Verizon Wireless on what is going on with the network. I live in a solid 3G coverage area...but just far away from 4G to benefit for the increased throughput. The closest 4G location footprint is about 40 miles away from me.
Finally, what about the Mifi 4510 L firmware update? I have yet to see any notification about this firmware update, either through normal e-mail channels or even through my Mifi configuration site
http://192.168.1.1/mifi.cgi
What gives?
I realize that I am sounding a little perturbed about this matter, but it has been almost 4 months now...and Verizon is not living up to their part of the bargain on providing good tech support on the Mifi 4510L. When they do not have an answer...they ignore the customer. Not good business!!!

The firmware update was released a few weeks ago and there were multiple threads in this forum for it:
Software Update: Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi™ 4510L
The firmware update primarily addresses a problem with the MiFi switching from 3G to 4G and back. I would not expect it to resolve a connection issue for anyone in a 3G only area. Work through the firmware update instructions included in the link above and see if it helps.
There were no email notifications but the MiFi should have been redirecting you to the MiFi homepage every time you tried to browse the internet. The firmware update is mandatory so if you have not already completed the update then there might be something wrong with your device.

What about the rural areas ???

As we all know BT's Fibre rollout plans keep getting put back and back. The rural areas are suffering and of course Bt announce BT sport free for fibre users (Yes I'm aware that any non fibre users can use the app to watch sport if with broadband) also to top this off they have announced 18 new channels for fibre users only at a cheap cost. My question is what about the little guys ? My exchange has no plans yet for fibre although 2 miles north or south they have fibre. Why should we be penalised for not having it ? I've had Youview for nearly a year now and to be comepletly honest it seems orientated to fibre users only. Does anyone else feel this way or is it just me ?

"don't moan about it taking a bit longer to get to you" It's not just a bit though Colin its 5 years if not longer could be 10 years. I took Youview on being told by many different Bt staff i could get the same services as everyone else. Surely when the youview service was sold to me they could have explained there and then certain services were for fibre only. It just annoys me to find i can't get these services and even more so things are finally hitting the platform.. Colin really your answer is to move ? bit drastic don't you think ?.

HT4946 in-app purchases are backed up but what about the apps themselves (purchased and free)?

Are the apps backed up too or do they need to be purchased, downloaded and installed again?

You can transfer your purchases to computer iTunes.
Connect and select iPhone in iTunes under DEVICES, right click and choose Transfer Purchases from ...
BTW, you can alway re-download again for free if it's still available in the app store.

Friends, I want to know what is the Bluetooth device in the HP Touch Smart TX2-1275 DX ?

Check specification of your model here.
This tablet is without bluetooth module.
You may buy usb micro Bluetooth adapter.
With that kind of device you don't need to even remember then it's plugged.

Which Bag do you use for your Camera? What about the GadgetBag 300EG?

Which Bag do you use for your Camera? What about the GadgetBag 300EG?

I agree - it's all about preference. I use the ThinkTank Retrospective 7. I *love* ThinkTank's attention to detail... everything from having a rain cover included with the bag, to having ingenius use of velcro (sp?) patches to enable you to "silence" the bag so it doesn't make the big "SCRATCH" sound when opening the bag during a quiet event, etc.
My best advice would be to do your research (which you're clearly doing) and have a clear understanding of the return policy wherever you buy it, and then don't be afraid to return it if you get it and feel it doesn't meet your needs. A restocking fee is a small price to pay to not be stuck with a bag that doesn't work for you. And if for any reason you get it and can't return it, there's always eBay.
