  • How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • How can you get your iPhone videos to compress to one video instead of 5 different frames?

    How can you get your iPhone videos to compree to one video instead of different frames

    It sounds like you to 5 separate videos. If you start recording, then stop it, then start it again, you will have 2 videos. Not 1. As for splicing them together, you will need a video editing package for your PC. I don't know if Windows Movie Maker (or whatever they're calling it now) can handle this or not. On a Mac, I'd say just use iMovie.

    Well, you're timing is perfect then   Are you eligible for any upgrade pricing from your service provider?
    I skipped over the iPhone 4s, and I am eligible for full upgrade pricing in almost exactly one month from yesterday, so I will be moving to an iPhone 5 next month.

    The only control you have is that, if you're syncing Calendars in iTunes, you can specify how many days back you want to go (e.g. "Last 30 days")
    Other than that, not really - you can do thing slike limit how meany messages Mail downloads, but that's not much help

  • How can you fix your iphone when it is stuck on the apple logo

    My Friend has an iPhone 3G(S) and  he wanted to put music on his iPhone. So he connected it to iTunes and said that the iPhone Had an iOS update. so he did the update and after the update, it got stop on the apple logo and it got an error and the iPhone is not responding and it is stuck on the Apple Logo.

    Alright Hernan there are a couple of steps you could try.
    Your first step has been mentioned twice, that is a "Hard reset". This can be done by holding both the Power/Lock Button (Top left hand corner of the device) and the Home Button (Circular button in the Bottom-Middle of the device) for about 3-5 seconds until the device shuts down, then attempt to start it up again.
    If this fails, you may have to take a rather drastic measure and put the device into "Forced Recovery Mode". This will erase all your data on your iPhone (So I'd hope you won't have to do this unless you backed up recently) and reset it to an empty device.
    To do this, head over to this article on the Apple Support Site and follow the instructions.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
    It does say for unable to restore or update, but look for the section where it says "Use the following steps to place your device into recovery mode."
    Hope this helps you!

  • How can i backup my files in recovery mode?

    i went into recovery mode and tried to repair my hard drive and it says it can't be repaired and I have to restore my computer. is there anyway i can backup my files from recovery mode onto a new disk?

    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is not fully functional. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    1. Start up from the Recovery partition, from Internet Recovery, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
    2. If Method 1 fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    3. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    4. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
