Can a Thick slab of magnet affect my iPhone 6 plus?

Hey Guys, I've read a previous post wherein someone had concluded that an iPhone cannot be damaged with a thin magnet. I have an iPhone 6 plus and I happened to keep it next to a thick slab of magnet  (the ones that are attached to cling doors, having height, thickness and width similar to that of A matchbox). It was kept about 6 inches away from the iphone ( having apple's leather case on) and was kept for about 2 minutes till I realised. I might sound a little newbie but I'm really getting Paranoid about my new iPhone being affected by the magnetic waves in any way as it was a big solid chunk of magnet. Though I see no signs of damage at the moment, I'm afraid of it being affected later on. Please help! Thanks & regards, - Harsh

Interestingly enough, Image Capture recognizes only the 1,200 photos on the iPhone, but I'm reluctant to use it because it won't append the Metadata that I have preset in Aperture or automatically run the preset enhancements.  I also don't use Image Capture so I'm not sure if it might leave out any Metadata or have some other drawback that I'm not aware of.
If Image Capture imports correctly, use it to import to a folder and then import that folder to Aperture. You can use the same presets when importing from a folder as when importing from a camera of iPhone.
The same buggy behavior has been reported for iPhoto, since the iOS 8.1 release. It happens in iPhoto, Image Capture, Aperture, but not all are seeing this problem.
For example, see these discussions:
iPhoto Yosemite duplicates Photos while importing from iPhone
iPhoto 9.6 shows duplicate photos present on iPhone
Connecting iPhone duplicates photos in iPhoto
duplicate photos in camera roll on iPhoto
Unfortunately, there is no clear picture yet, what circumstances will make it happen, and how to prevent it.
For some forum members it was the Photo Stream (Duplication upon importation from Iphone to Iphoto), others found it was caused by HDR photos, for some the problem went away after the 8.1.2 update, for others it started with this update.
A few forum members reported, that it helped to dismount the iPhone and plug it in again (iPhoto 9.6 shows duplicate photos present on iPhone), and then the duplicates went away. One member reported, that Apple Support claimed this problem to be caused by iCloud iPhoto libary (Beta), and indeed turning off iCloud iPhoto libary (Beta)  made he duplicates vanish for him.

  • Can I restore my info to a new iPhone 6 plus using a backup of an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.1.2?

    Just bought a new phone and want to import all my app settings and information. I have heard all the complaints about iPhone 4s running iOS 8 and don't want to update until I have it preinstalled on a new 6+.
    Can I restore my info to a new iPhone 6 plus using a backup of an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.1.2?
    or would I have to upgrade my 4S to iOS 8, backup, and then restore the new phone. I need to ensure that my 4S powers on and works so I can receive trade in credit for it (~$200), so this is worth a bit to ensure that my 4S stays functional.
    Thanks

    You can load a backup from an earlier iOS version onto a device with a later iOS version, but not the other way around.
    If you're going to do this, I'd recommend doing a backup of your 4s to your computer (not iCloud) and load the backup onto the 6+ from the computer.  You can try an iCloud backup/installation, but also do a local backup in case something goes wrong. A local backup is more comprehensive than an iCloud backup, and in my experience it loads more reliably.

  • Can't sync personal ringtone from iTunes to iPhone 6 plus

    Hi
    I have created a personal ringtone , a 20 sec clip. I saved it as an arc and renamed it to .M4R
    I added it to iTunes which correctly put it in the tones folder. I connected my iPhone - checked the sync tones option /all
    and hit sync.
    The ringtone refuses to come across.
    I am using iOS 8.1 and iTunes v12.0.1.26
    any help would be great
    thanks

    Hello,
    I just discovered something yesterday as I was having the exact problems. Here are some questions that I'll ask with my comments next to them.
    1. Did you burn CDs onto your computer's hard-drive? If so, your iTunes will treat these files differently than if you had used iTunes or downloaded an .mp3. There are quite a few different formats which can be played on your iTunes or iPhone. They are: .mp3, .wav, .m4a, and more . I have no problems with the .mp3 format, but I do have problems with the other formats. I believe that you would have to convert your format of your song from, let's say, a .m4a to a .aac. Then, I delete the .m4a format to avoid redundancies.
    This was my biggest issue, and I hate it. It's very cumbersome. I hate iTunes, in general.

  • Iphone 6 plus can not receive or make calls

    Intermittently, I can not eceive or make calls on my iPhone 6 plus.  Callers tell me that they call me, they hear the phone ring a number of times and it goes to voice mail.  I get the voice mail notification but my phone did not ring.  When I try to make a call, I get a recording that 'the number or code that you dialed is not valid.'  Other times the message is that I am not authorized to make a call on this device.  Other time it works fine.
    I can not detect a pattern.  I reset the PRL ( Iuse Sprint).  I did a soft reset on phone.  I called Sprint and they did something on their end but it didn't work.  They told me to take the phone back to Apple.
    Any suggestions?

    I have this same problem and just finished speaking with AT&T (though I cannot make or receive any calls). The technical support staff opened a case. This problem seems like it may be related to the problem reported in the following threads:

  • Can i replace my 16 GB iphone 6 plus with a 64 GB one and pay that 100$ difference ?

    i bought my my 16 GB iphone 6 plus about a month or a month and a half ago and i found that 16 GB is not enough at all for me so i was wondering if i can replace it with a new 64 GB iphone 6 plus and pay that 100$ or so. I also got my iphone with the apple care+ insurance .. so is that possible?

    If you purchased it directly through Apple you are outside your return window and cannot return it, get a refund and buy a new one. If you bought it elsewhere you will have to check their policies. There is not trade up policy with AppleCare + or without.
