Can we make things more Useful...? not an update question.

Ok well i said its not an update question.. well it kinda is.
today is friday.. the release date of the new iphone 3g.. great.. i love my iphone.. im goin to wait a week or so before i go ahead and buy the new phone for sake of bugs and lil tweaks..
ok so today i dont know what drove me to update my iphone.. and it got totally bricked for 3 hours.. until i finnally got thru using the "clicking" solution... well i understand the server is overwelmed.. and everyone is updatin and the same time.. but there was a prompt askin if i wanted to update and get the latest iphone software and the latest version of itunes... good.. lets all download it.. most of us it will take 3-6 hours for the iphone to update because the whole problem with the overload on apples side...
..BUT...
what if we cant wait that long?
i SYNC'd my iphone before the update.. well everyone does... itunes prompts you to do so.. WHY.. emphasizing on WHY... if we synced the phone to our computer systems.. and a problem like for example is goin forth now with this update... CAN'T we just restore our iphones back to how it was before we even tried updating it?
IT did SAVE to our computers right?
why cant we just double click here, right click right there..
and BOOM..
back for pre 2.0 days.. well until after the storm has passedt..
why cant we have that option in itunes... heck why not?
hey doctors will always have beepers to get in contact with.. so hey the whole life death situation thing means it isnt that that THAT bad.. but hey everyone needs there cell phone and people use cell phones.. this one in particular for business.. so maybe we could have avoided some confrontation to some conference calls and clients.. etc... well regardless.. as easy for the update to have made the iphone in a way "bricked".. i think it should have been easy to restore to pre 2.0 .
windows has that option in its system restore feature...
download something that messes up your system? virus? update that doesnt work well with the OS?.. restore to an earlier date is an option in the control panel..
i think itunes need something like that with the iphone version..
last but not least..
i love my iphone :-D

  • How can I make my imap email not take the emails off the server?

    How can I make my imap email not take the emails off the server when I delete them on my iPad?
    Can anyone help me whith this?
    I tried to use the pop account in gmail settings but that was downloading all my emails sice 2008 ( more than 300 deleted emails tha can only be found in the deleted email box), when I just have 5 or 6 email in the inbox .
    How can I solve this????
    Thank u all...

    I have the same problem. For years I have been able to delete emails from my ipad and have them remain on the server so I can deal with them on the desktop. Now they get deleted from the server when deleted from the ipad, which makes the ipad unless for reading mail.
    You answered to delete the email account on the ipad and set up a new one as a pop. I have made many attempts to do that in the  incomping mail server "Host Name" field but it always errors out even when the host name is equal to what my desk top has. So I can see no way to change away from IMAP. I started with an ipad 1 and now have an ipad 2.

  • Can I make another website using iWeb,then publish it to a different server through the SMTP panel on iWeb

    Can I make another website using iWeb, and then publish it to a different server through the SMTP panel on iWeb, even though I have a website published on mobile me, can I just use the SMTP engine to publish a different site but to a different server, that's the question I'm asking. I'm hoping for a quick reply. Thank you for your time in reading this.

    Yes.  You can do it one of two ways: 
    1 - select FTP Server in the Publish To menu (click on the site folder to get to the options) and enter the FTP address, username and password and publish as you would if using MMe.
    2 - select Publish to Folder and publish. Use a 3rd party FTP client like  Cyberduck to upload the site files to there server using the FTP address, etc.

    I'm using an iPad mini can I make calls without using face time?

    You can use apps such as Skype For iPad from the app store, but if you are asking whether you can make 'normal' phone calls with it then no, you can't.

  • After registration of 6 divices/apps I bought two readers. Now I cant not use them because of no free license. What can I do? Adobe does not answer my questions.

    Thanks too all the people who responded. . . . (noone)
    Got it sorted though. Seems that Apple has issues with multiple apple id's.
    Seems i had to somehow remember and use the original id i had when i first bought my 1st iPhone. . . .
    Even after that it was extremely hard to get my apps back on my PC.
    If anyone else has the same problem. . . .email Apple. Cya.

    can I make an mp3 using Quicktime Pro?

    QuickTime can play .mp3 files and can edit audio formats but it can't export to .mp3.
    Use iTunes for that.

  • I downloaded a handwritten doc that is illegible, can I make it more clear to read?

    The document is an old birth certificate. I can't read the names of the mother and father. I wonder if thebirth certificate department will help me?
    In the meantime, does any one know of a tool that makes writing more legible? (I've seen such a thing on television crime movies.

    What kind of document is that and how bad does it look?
    Is it a PDF file or an image file (JPG, PNG, TIFF) or something else?
    If you can extract it as an image then you can try to improve the contrast or gamma with an image editor or use other filters in such a program. It may not be possible to do much about this if the quality is really bad.

  • Can I make a DVD using Quicktime or anything else in my arsenal?

    First off I apologize for m idiocracy in posting this in "Quicktime for Windows" before this as I simply was noy paying any attention, also, please forgive me what I am about to ask has been discussed, but I didn't find any answers in my searching so here goes: How can I make a DVD that will play in TV set DVD players? Do I need any alternate programs or possibly an upgrade to Quicktime Pro?
    Heres the situation I have that way, with any luck, you'll understand what and I am trying to do (and hopefully tell me it's a rather easy process): I have a friend that has a bunch of skate videos available for download on his personal web page....turns out those downloads are .mgp and they play through Quicktime. Now what I want to do is take those said videos and make them into a DVD I can watch in any player. Is this possible with Quicktime, iDVD, or anything else that came standard with my new Macbook or do I need another program? Sorry, I'm a new Mac user.
    Thanks for the help I've already been given on ths site and the info I am sure to receive now. So far these discussion forums have been extremely helpful.

    If you have do do many then buy Toast 8 Titanium and use them directly in Toast and skip first making a QT version then turning around and making yet another version. Which avoid compressing the clips twice as well. MPEG-1 is a very low quality codec so I would not compress the clips once to QT and again to iDVD.
    Also iDVD is fussy and takes forever, Toast isn't and doesn't.

  • Can I make objects that do not print?  Like a guide box for labels.

    I wanted to print labels for my memorex DVD labels but couldn't find templates for pages.  The doc files open but pages prints the lines of the guides which are never exactly correct so they look horribly uneven.  Can I make a separate layer that doesn't print or objects that won't print but are selectable.

    The 'guides' are probably text boxes, into which you place the text.
    Select one of these, then use the Stroke controls in the Format bar to set the stroke to 'none.'
    Choose View > Show Layout to see the position of the box (and other layout elements, such as the left and top margins and the header box in this screen shot):
    When printed, or viewed with Show Layout turned off, the same portion of the same page will have this appearance (not including the difference in scale caused by the automatic scaling of graphics on this board):
    "View" in the instruction above means either the View button on the Toolbar or the View menu in the Menu Bar.
