Can I use my PC to type notes and transfer to iPhone?

When I used a Nokia, I had software that would let me perform phone functions on my PC when it was connected to it.  How can I do that with iPhone4?  In particular, I want to enter text for the Notes section and sync it to the phone.

The iPhone doesn't let you create notes directly to the iPhone from a computer, but there are a couple of apps.
A good one I recommend if you make notes on your computer, and need to save them to your phone is "PlainText". It's a free app. When you install it, you can create a note on the device and sync them directly to DropBox or your computer.
When you plug the phone into iTunes, navigate to the "Apps" section of the device and scroll down, you will see apps that allow file sharing. Click on PlainText, and then click on "Add..." and choose the .txt file you want to sync into PlainText.
You can also do this from DropBox by syncing PlainText to its own folder in your DropBox. When you drop .txt files into your DropBox folder for PlainText, you'll see it in the app.

    No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

    I will address your second question.
    First, make sure your iPhone and iPad have absolutely identical Apple IDs.  If they do, use that Apple ID in Settings > iCloud on your iPhone to select the "Notes" option.  Lo and behold, all your iCloud notes should appear on your iPhone.

  • Can't use internet when I'm not connected to Wi-Fi

    I can't use 4g even when my phone tell me that I'm connected. So I can't use internet when I'm not at home. I never had that problem with my Lumia 925 just with my 930 and it's frustrating that I can't find any information on why.

    What did your carrier say about this?
    Where are you and your carrier is who?
    Did you make any changes to the accesspoint settings?
    Has it ever worked?
    If it ever worked, what changed?
    Are you on you own network or happen to be roaming?
    Have you tried a new SIM?
    In short..

  • Can I use Time Capsule as external storage and not for Time Machine?

    Can I use Time Capsule as external storage and not for Time Machine?
    I want to just use it like a USB drive but wirelessly and so other people in my suite can use it wirelessly to get the files I put on there. Let me know if you need me to explain some more

    Will the Time Capsule come with directions on how to set it up as external storage rather then time machine.
    Yes, AirPort Utility will walk you through the setup.
    Because when I watched the video on it it says that time machine is automatically recognized
    You have to turn Time Machine "On" for each Mac separately. By default, it is "Off". Leave it off if you do not want to use Time Machine.  If by some chance Time Machine is "On", then turn it "Off"

  • Can i use create function for MSSql scalar and table valude function.

    Hi,
    1) Can i use create function for MSSql scalar and table valued function?
    2) How many type of user defined function are there in oracle 11g express?
    3) And can i reture any "type" form user defined function?
    yourse sincerely

    Q1)That means even if i return predefined types like integer, varchar2 then also PGA is used ?The data type does not determine where the variable is stored. A string (called a varchar2 in Oracle) can be stored in stack space, heap space, on disk, in a memory mapped file, in a shared memory, in an atom table, etc.
    It is the who and what is defining and using that string, that determines where and how it is stored.
    The Oracle sever supports 2 languages in PL/SQL. The PL (Programming Logic) language is a procedural/declarative language. It is NOT SQL. SQL is integrated with it. The PL/SQL engine uses private process memory (PGA). So PL/SQL variables exist in the PGA (but there are exceptions such as LOBs).
    Q2) So please suggest me solution in oracle.Sounds to me you are looking at how to implement a T-SQL style function as an Oracle function, and once implemented, do joins on the function.
    Do not use PL/SQL in SQL in place of a SQL select. It is not T-SQL.
    One cannot use PL/SQL to create functions along the style of T-SQL, where the function executes a SQL using some conditional logic, and then return as if the function was a native SQL select.
    T-SQL is an extension to the SQL language - making it a hybrid and very impure language implementation. PL is based on ADA - part of the Pascal family of languages. The E-SQL (embedded SQL) approach used in languages like C/C++, Cobol and Ada, has been transparently done in PL/SQL. You can write and mix PL code and variables with SQL code. And the PL/SQL engine figures out how to make the call from the PL/SQL engine to the SQL engine.
    But PL/SQL is not "part" of the SQL language and does not "extend" the SQL language in a T-SQL fashion.
    So you need to check your SQL-Server preconcepts in at the door, as they are not only irrelevant in Oracle, they are WRONG in Oracle.
    The correct way in Oracle, in a nutshell - Use the SQL language to do data processing. Use PL/SQL to manage conditional process flow and the handling of errors.

  • I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?

    I have two iphones, different telcos, i am using the same apple id for both - how can i use the 10GB icloud free memory of my new iphone 5?

    Thank you KiltedTim!
    YES, that is the free 5GB icloud memory for each apple ID. Can I not add the free 5Gb of my second Iphone to my original apple ID (5GB also) as I want to use one Apple ID name on both 2 Iphones? Is it necessary to have a different apple ID for the second Iphone to avail the free 5GB it carries with it?
