CAR MOUNT / CHARGER THAT IS SIMPLE AND LOGICAL ?????

Here's the deal... obviously most newer car stereos have an aux input. And if not, almost all aftermarket radios do. What good is an UGLY suction cup mount with a seperate wire for power ? What good is a cigarette lighter mount with no power ? Why can't someone make a simple mount that plugs into the cigarette lighter and powers the phone while holding it in place ? THAT'S ALL ! A small wire could then connect the phone to the aux jack or even the cassette if you want to go back to the 90's. We all know FM transmitters SUCK, but they insist on only offering these things with the stupid transmitter on it ! Does anyone PLEASE have a link to a car mount for the iphone that plugs into the cigarette lighter, holds it there in a mount, and provides power ?????????!!!!!!!
Thanks.

Belkin HAD exactly what you want and I WAS using it with my Touch. But, of course it WON'T work with the 3G. They don't seem to be on track to replace it with anything simmilar and everything I've seen is clunky in comparison.
Here it is on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Auto-iPod-Connector-White/dp/B00009KAPX/ref=pdbbs_sr1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1219509454&sr=8-1
Too bad it was great while it lasted. It has a little mini plug on the underside of the plug so mini to whatever cable goes to your input AND it has a volume control so it acts like a preamp so you can keep a balance among your device and built in radio. Sigh: What are all these manufactures thinking, when something is Made For iPod why isn't it really??
Edit: I missed the mount part, I use a cupholder mount originaly designed for HP Ipaq (ebay) that fits great. I didn't want to put that much weight on the lighter socket, it would wear it down in time.

Good iphone car mount that works with case?

I need a car mount for my iPhone so that I can use the phone's GPS app. I've looked around and so far I can only find mounts that work for iPhones without any case.
I would rather not have to remove the case everytime I got in my car, so are there any recommended mounts out there that work for phones with cases?
Thanks!

Griffin makes an FM/lighter mounted model, which has several bottom mounting brackets, to fit several phone models. I tested it out today, but the ipod buttons on the model don't work correctly, and FM was spotty to awful, as always on these type of setups. It did hold my naked cellphone well, and wish it had worked as advertised - cost about $100 at Best Buy.
Belking has a similar model (about $70 at Best Buy), without the FM transmitter, also on a lighter stalk, which may work, since it grips the top of the phone with a wider clip, made to adapt to case thicknesses, I presume. I have not tried out this model, but may do so, since I have never found a single FM transmitter that works well - too much static, fading in and out, etc.
Is there anyone who can recommend a lighter mounted (on a flexible stalk) charger for the iphone, that has a stalk long enough to accommodate any rental car, I would very much appreciate it.

I plugged in my macbook pro power adapter and heard a loud bang. I checked the charger by opening it and found out the charger blew the whole mother board up. So i buy another charger, as i live in Egypt, that blew up the same way, please help.

You'll certainly need a new logic board.
If I were you, I would take the machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them evaluate the problems and give you an estimate for repair. If you're out of warranty, be prepared to pay a very high price to get your computer repaired.
Good luck,

I Need a Car Mount That WORKS!!

I've been through two car mounts...the iOttie that Apple.com sells, and another bought at BestBuy. Both encountered the same problem in my car...
I need the mount to stick to a plastic surface that is curved. My first failed attempt had a sticky suction cup...it was not sticky enough and the suction cup does not work on plastic.
I'm desperately trying to find a good solution...any recommendations?

HI Peter,
I would recommend the Tackform Ultra Grip.. One thing I want to point out is that most of the quality sticky suction cups will still stick to a slightly curved surface. The issue many people run into is that the actual dashboard material is porous and over a few hours or days the air slowly seeps through and you lose suction. In this case there really wouldn't be a good direct to dash suction cup solution for you.. The Tackform Ultra Grip comes with an additional 3M pad that you can use first but many people don't like putting any type of adhesive on your dash.
If you're looking for solid. The Ultra Grip locks on super tight to surfaces. It has a bigger suction cup than most mounts out there.

Since downloading latest OS (07?) on my 4G-S can't use regular charger. Phone blinks and bleats but does not charge. Can charge in car and from computer keyboard port. Much slower.

Since downloading os 7.1 to my Iphone 4G-S I have been unable to charge it on the regular charger. I can use my USB port on my keyboard and my car charger but when I hook up to my regular charger the phone blinks on and off and bleets little beeps and does not charge. Ipowered off and on again with no success.

No such model exists, therefore there cannot possibly be an issue with it.
If it works with other chargers, that would indicate a problem with the charger.

Can I charge my Ipod Classic with my car charger that I use for my Iphone?

I have an iPod Classic that I would like to take to camp. Can I use my wall charger and/or my car charger that I use for my iPhone to charge it?

Yes.

Best iPad 2 Stand and Car Mount?

I don't know whether this has been discussed, but that's the best iPad 2 stand and car mount?

This is my favorite stand.
http://www.arkon.com/iPad_accessories/iPad_stand.html
What I like about it is the way it folds up. With practice you can snap it from fully open to fully shut, and stuff it in a shoulder-bag (or whatever you're using to carry your iPad in), in a flash, with just one hand. It's light, clicks to hold the iPad at nearly any angle from vertical to around 50 degrees off vertical, and has very soft padding on all the right spots so that you don't have to worry about it scratching the iPad or somebody's expensive table top.
The downside is it's plastic. So it's not going to last forever, or win points for adding a touch of elegance to the room, but for twenty bucks a pop I'm happy with it.
Can't vouch for any of the other stands they make, like the ones for the car, haven't tried any of them yet.

I am so angry - there has to be a misundering. my Itunes was disabled as there was a charge that I did not authorize and I cannot find the phone

I am so angry - there has to be a misunderstanding. my Itunes was disabled as there was a charge that I did not authorize and I cannot find the phone number for security and the dingbat girl who I'm emailing send me a link that does not work. And I am extremely frustrated. Please help. I need a phone # to contact security.

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

After uploading our phones with the latest update, we have noticed that the battery life has deminished considerably. I now have to charge my phone overnight and two or three times a day. Prior to the update, my battery life lasted me at least a full day

After uploading our phones with the latest update, we have noticed that the battery life has deminished considerably. I now have to charge my phone overnight and two or three times a day. Prior to the update, my battery life lasted me at least a full day. We have several phones in our office and the ones that have updated (4) now have issue holding a charge/battery life. I really liked this phone and can not believe that you are now going to charge us $79 a battery to fix what is most definately a problem with your latest update. I know other people outside of our company that are having the same problem. Not to mention when I called AT&T it was confirmed to me that they are hearing the same issue and then some from other customers as well. Your own people, once I talked to them earlier today, told me they are showing a history of issues that are showing up after the update was put in place. Of course she tried to say, "Maybe the age of the battery and the update both contributed". Whatever.
I want you all to know how disappointed I am in your company for the handling of this issue. I always thought "Apple" was the line I didn't have to worry about having any types of issue. And that you all would stand behined your product 100%. Now I am not so sure.
I would love to hear back from your company on how you perceive the issue with all of these phones that prior to the update didn't have any issues and how after the update THEY ARE NOW having issues. I do not believe this was an issue due to the age of a battery and that was pretty lame to say so. It was fine and now its not.
Please feel free to contact me and help me figure out a way to pay for all of the batteries that will be needed for our company to contiue doing business as needed.
Thank you.

How can i create a simple netweaver portal page that shows text and images?

Hi,
i have a simple question or maybe it's not so simple.
I am completly new to SAP Netweaver 2004s Portal. At the moment i'm trying to understand the struture of the whole thing. I already know how to create roles, worksets and pages and i know how to combine the different elements so a user can acces them.
And now i want to create a simple portal page that shows text and images. Is it possible to create such a simple page with the portal content studio? What iView do i have to use?
(I just want to create a start page with a welcome text on it.)

Marc
Considering that you would any ways go ahead with complex development from this simple start page I recommend create a Web dynpro Iview for your start page (include the Iview in your page).
For putting the contents use Netweaver Developer studio to build a simple start page application and put your static text on that Iview.
Please go through the following log after your NWDS development is over - This will make you comfortable for further challenging work.

My iPod touch 4th gen. Won't charge with a enercell charger that I've used since December. It will only charge with the apple USB cord that came with it. And even the takes it about 6 sec. To realize its charging. Help me fix this?

Yes, I've been using it for months. And I can charge other devices with it. (my iPhone) but something weird just happened..... I kept on pluging it in the iPod and sometimes it would start to chàrge then sometimes it won't charge. Charges every time with the iPhone though.

So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

I am pretty sure it will always use the credit card unless payment method is set to none.
That has been my experience anyway.
They already have the money from the gift card so would rather collect from your credit card.
