FileMaker Mobile for iPhone?

FileMaker (a wholly owned subsidiary of Apple) have produced a product called FileMaker Mobile for some time see http://www.filemaker.com/products/fmm/ which runs a subset of FileMaker on mobile devices such as Palm or Windows Mobile (née Pocket PC) devices.
The company I work for would like to see this product upgraded and ported to the iPhone.
Interestingly, while all the rest of the FileMaker range was recently upgraded to version 9, Mobile still languishes at version 8. Are they busy working on an iPhone version?
Yes, it maybe possible to do much of this using Safari to access via the web a FileMaker database but that relies on Internet access which is often not going to be available. Apart from the fact that WiFi costs literally a fortune here in the UK, our staff are often on Government sites with no WiFi access.
Note: As currently FileMaker Mobile only supports Palm (who have not updated their Mac support in eons and look like fading away as a company), and Windows Mobile (which does not support syncing FileMaker Mobile to the Mac), one could argue supporting the iPhone is the only path for the future.

I don't know what you mean about the internet access not being available on the iPhone; internet access is always available via either EDGE or Wi-Fi. That said, the PHP assistant and web publishing aspects of FM9 are outstanding, and I think that it will overtake the need for a mobile program. The reason being that with the PHP assistant, it optimizes the dbase for use over the internet.
We have not yet tried using FMP9 with web access, but certainly FMP6 (which we are still currently using - although we are working on upgrading to 9) is far, far too slow to use over a GPRS speed link (remember EDGE is practically none existent in Europe, and the first iPhone will not do 3G). As I said, WiFi will often not be available due to either cost or location, or deliberate policy of the corporate or government site we are working on. What I want to do is like FM Mobile run the database self contained on the mobile device (in this case an iPhone), which does not require any network connection at all, with changes later synced via the computer (just like FM Mobile and a Palm).

Visto Mobile for Iphone

I started testing out Visto Mobile for Iphone to access exchange email from work. So far it works great. You have to leave your computer on at work, which I do anyway. Email comes to Iphone. If I delete on the Iphone, it deletes on the work computer.
Is there a catch, other than Visto will eventually charge for this? Is anyone else trying this out? Is it safe and secure to use from my work's network standpoint? It solves my problems, so I'm hoping this is a viable solution, as long as security is not an issue. (I have no idea what Visto will ultimately charge for this service, any ideas??)
Thanks,

Its sort of secure. Any time an email goes through a 3rd party server there is a risk. For most of us its not that big a risk, but its still there.
No answers as to cost but I started using it the other day and it is Fan-****-tastic.

Trouble logging into Lightroom mobile for iPhone

Is anyone else having trouble logging into Lightroom mobile for iPhone?

It's working now. I guess you have to set it up in LR first. So I went through the LR setup and waited for an email from Adobe. I followed those steps next and then tried the phone again. This time it worked.

Which iPhone is supported by Lightroom Mobile for iPhone?

I cannot install Lightroom Mobile on my iPhone 4, I am told by iTunes that my iPhone 4 is incompatible, yet nowhere have I found any information suggesting anyone else is having this problem and I cannot find any information about supported iPhones.
My iPhone 4 is running 7.1.1.
I have Lightroom Mobile working perfectly on my iPad so I cannot see this as being a local issue.
Any suggestions as to how to resolve this issue?

The info is listed at the app-store. see the attached screenshot...

"Autoplay" doesn't work for playing audio in mobile Safari (iphone)?

I have 2 problems that would like solve, please help me. The first one is I've noticed that QuickTime doesn't play audio automatically when setting attribute "Autoplay" to true. The second my problem that I need playback audio in background mode, that is without opening Quicktime player window. Below my code how I try doing it...
<OBJECT ID='ctl05$MPHolder_MediaPlayer' classid='clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B' codebase='http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab' height=0 width=0> <PARAM name='src' value='http://kvinelearning.eu/iphone/els/IphoneSoundTest/2.mp3'> <EMBED height=0 width=0 SRC='http://kvinelearning.eu/iphone/els/IphoneSoundTest/2.mp3' controller='false' qtsrc='http://kvinelearning.eu/iphone/els/IphoneSoundTest/2.mp3' autoplay='true' PLUGINSPAGE='www.apple.com/quicktime/download' EnableJavaScript='true' NAME='ctl05$MPHolder_MediaPlayer' /></OBJECT>
Thanks all in advance and waiting replies.
Valeriy.

QuickTimeKirk, thanks a lot for your answer, but I'm interesting in Mobile Safari, not IE, FF or Opera This is these problems appear only for iphone browser, for others ones it works fine, even in Safari for Windows. So, autoplay still doesn't work... And please consult me about quicktime player browser's plugin, I mean why I cannot play sound with javascript function [documetn.getElementById("qtplayer").Play()] without opening sound track in plugin window? I really need playback in background. Or is it feature of quicktime?
Thank you in advance,
Valeriy.

How do I rotate an image in Lightroom Mobile for the iPhone?

Hi,
Maybe I am missing something obvious, but I can't figure out how to rotate any images in Lightroom Mobile for the iPhone. The documentation is for the iPad and shows a rotate control on the right hand side of the screen, but no such control is showing up on the phone. I tried various numbers of fingers to just spin the image, but no luck. Can someone please let me know how this is supposed to work?
Thanks!

Hey, thanks!
I had tried forever to figure that out. I could rotate up to about 45 degrees or so, but even that was hard to control.
Thanks for the help.

Cisco Mobile 8.0 for Iphone and Presence

Is there any plan to provide Presence and IM to the Mobile 8.0 client in the future?

1.     When will the updated 8.0 version be available for Iphone that will operate in the background?
8.0 on iPhone has been available for a while. There's no ETA on next release (8.5 maybe?)
2.     When will a Droid version be available?
ETA Nov 2010.
3.      If you are committed to Iphone an Droid only (no bberry or symbian os), is there any reason to implement the Cisco Unified Mobility product?
Not sure what Cisco Unified Mobility product you were referring to.
"Cisco Unified Mobility" is the feature on CUCM that provides SNR (Single Number Reach), MVA (Mobile Voice Access) and EFA (Enterprise Feature Access). It has nothing to do with iPhone or Droid.

I have iPhone 4S 32g Sprint,already cancelled a week ago.My question is,can I use at-t or t-mobile for a cheaper plan.any suggestion would do appreciated,by the way my phone has micro sd card.Have a nice evening to all the apple user's

I have iPhone 4S 32g Sprint,already cancelled week ago....My Question is if I can use any carrier like at-t or T-mobile for a cheaper plan....By the way my phone has a micro sd,any suggestions would appreciated,have a nice evening to all the apple user's & thank's....

I strongly recommend against switching to tmobile. They seem cheaper up front, but their "unlimited" data cuts you off at a certain point. They will even send you messages saying that you "went over your limit." Not only that but they sneak in fees, charges, and services that were never agreed upon making your bill more expensive. And forget ever trying to change your contract. They'll change it for you, but what they don't tell you is that they are roping you into another 2 year contract from that point on. No paperwork, no signatures, no nothing. They just screw you.
But other than that, yes you can unlock your iphone and use it with them. Though I wouldn't if I were you.

Virgin Mobile unlocks iPhones for free?

I currently have an HTC phone on Virgin Mobile, which has given me pretty good service for the monthly rate. I want to upgrade to the iPhone 5s and continue to use Virgin Mobile since it has given me such good service. However, I will be moving out of state next year and am worried that Virgin Mobile will not provide good service there, so just in case I want to be able to switch my iPhone to a different carrier. Virgin Mobile says they will unlock iPhones purchased from them for free (https://community.virginmobile.com.au/t5/Phones-knowledge-base/How-do-I-unlock-m y-Apple-iPhone/ta-p/80), but after doing some research, apparently it is really hard to switch carriers on a Virgin Mobile unlocked iPhone since they use CDMA. Sorry, I am not a techie, so am really unfamiliar to all of this. Will someone explain what that means, and if I would be able to potentially switch carriers?
Thanks!

Several confusing pieces of information here.
First, the link to Virgin Mobile in the first post is for Virgin Mobile Australia. They will unlock their phones if you ask them.
Virgin Mobile USA is a different company (in a different country) and does NOT unlock phones.
Second, the iPhone sold on Virgin Mobile USA does have a SIMM card slot, even though VM network is CDMA. These iPhones are hybrids and have radio circuitry that supports both CDMA (Verizon, Sprint, VM USA), as well as GSM (T-Mobile, AT&T in US, as well as the rest of the world). When activated on Virgin Mobile, phone uses CDMA and the SIMM card is inactive (as well as the circuitry supporting it). However, when you put an active SIMM card (for example, T-Mobile's), the phone should be able connect to a GSM network. The problem is, this doesn't work because the SIMM slot is locked and doesn't allow SIMM cards from other carriers.
Virgin Mobile iPhones are somewhat different from other American carriers, and it appears that there is no unlocking solution for these. I have searched the web thoroughly and haven't been able to find anyone who would be able to unlock an iPhone sold by Virgin Mobile USA, so that it can be used with a SIMM card of another mobile carrier (domestic or foreign). For iPhones on Verizon, unlocking isn't even necessary; they are CDMA phones, which means that the CDMA circuitry can only be activated on Verizon (therefore no Sprint or Virgin Mobile), but the SIMM slot is unlocked and can be used with any global carrier. With AT&T and T-Mobile, unlocking is required, since the two are GSM operators which use SIMM cards, so the phone is locked to the carrier. Unlocking can be done, in some cases (if you've been a customer long enough) even by the carrier itself, and there are third-party unlocking services out there. Unfortunately, Virgin is the only one where this, for some reason, cannot be done.

The Difference between iphone Unlock T-Mobile and iphone Unlock Free-Sim

As mentiond in the title my questions are:-
- What is the Difference between iphone Unlock T-Mobile and iphone Unlock Free-Sim?!
- Did they both work Internationally?!
- For the Unlock T-Mobile should i use their sim or i can use any sim directly?!
Thanks

Unlocked means unlocked and you can use any sim card and keep changing them and the phone will never lock if it is unlocked.
Sim free, means that the phone is sold at full price without a sim card, but the phone will lock to the first sim card that you put in it. A sim free phone will work internationally, but you will have to use a roaming plan with your phone company because the phone will be locked, so you CANNOT change it to a local sim card.
If you have an unlocked phone, you can use it internationally by inserting a local sim card and the phone should then work and you won't have to pay increased roaming charges as you would with a locked phone.
If you buy a T-Mobile phone that is unlocked, DO NOT activate it with their sim card or the phone will lock to T-Mobile and you will have to approach them to get it unlocked. Use it with another sim card straight away and it will remain unlocked.
