Headphones something interesting apple wrote!

i was looking through the tips here
http://www.apple.com/iphone/tips/
i found something interesting, if you click on sleep/wake button tab, there is a part which reads ...
'When iPhone is locked, nothing happens if you touch the screen. You can still listen to music and adjust the volume, and use the button on the included stereo headset to play or pause a song, or answer or end a call.'
Now does anyone else notice they say use the button on your headset to play or pause a song,,, is it just me ? i got some plain headphones with no buttons with my ipod 3G....

On the earbuds that came with the iPhone 3G, you should notice a small nub located on the cord attached to the right earbud. This is the button that will allow you to start/stop music or answer/disconnect calls by squeezing it. It also contains a microphone to pick up your voice for phone calls.

TS2771 Reset ipod 4 and still cannot get speaker to work... with headphones it works, but without headphones, nothing. Apple reset it and said hardware problem, but nothing else.. Any ideas??

Any ideas to get speaker on ipod touch to work.. took to Apple store, for them to wipe it out,to confirm what I said is correc... they said Hardware Issue, and nee a new one, b/c they have no idea.
Works with headphones in???

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem (you may have done these)
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

HT1766 My iPhone is disabled because I downloaded something from apple

I downloaded a new version of something from Apple for my iPhone 5s and now it is disabled and I need a pass code and I do not know it!

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

Can I use my Koss headphones with my Apple iPhone 5c?

Can I use my Koss Ur/29 headphones with my Apple iPhone 5c?
Thanks,
hrw

To clarify what Lawrence said, you can use the headphones for phone calls, but you can't answer calls from the headphones as there is no button on the headphones to do so. Answer the call on your iPhone, and the sound can still play through the headphones.

I need connect bluetooth or wireless headphone to my apple tv and what can i do with Optical Audio

ATV does not asupport bluetooth for audio or any type of wireless headsets.
If you want to connect the ATV to a receiver, connect it either via HDMI or Optical Audio.

Why Apple do not allow Bluetooth sharing between different devices even when I want to share something between apple devices I have to make sure that we have the same application

My iPod shuts off repeatedly when using the Nike running app. Have already tried the headphones solution that Apple has recommended. Can anyone help?

My iPod shuts off repeatedly when using the Nike running app. Have already tried the headphones solution that Apple has recommended. Can anyone help?

Using the 5th generation iPod. Purchased it a few months ago before the new one was launched. Yes the workout randomly ends when I am no where near the time or distance I have programmed in. I keep tried to restart the workout and the same thing keeps happening over and over again. I figured it may have been the headphones but I have even tried holding the headphone connection in place, and different headphones as well and it continues to happen.

Interestingly, Apple never refers to the MacBook's as Laptops, here's why!

Hey Folks.
I was quite shocked when I discovered the following;
http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro/care
QUOTE from the link above.
*Using Your MacBook Pro*
When you’re using your MacBook Pro or charging the battery, it's normal for the bottom of the case to get warm. +*For prolonged use, place your MacBook Pro on a flat, stable surface. Do not place your MacBook Pro on your lap or other body surface for extended periods of time. Prolonged body contact can cause discomfort and potentially a burn.*+ The bottom of the MacBook Pro case functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the computer to the cooler air outside. The bottom of the case is raised slightly to allow airflow, which keeps the unit within normal operating temperatures. In addition, warm air is vented from the slots in the back of the case.
END QUOTE.
Fair enough, it's common sense if you are working long hours to place the laptop on a flat surface and not your body. However, it's interesting how Apple never reefers to the machine as a laptop because they are careful with that word and it's meaning! The reason is, if you have the MacBook Pro on your body for a certain period of time it will start to overheat. Which is quite frustrating.
What I did now was i downloaded: http://homepage.mac.com/holtmann/eidac/software/smcfancontrol2/index.html to monitor the temperature and limiting the RPM of the hard disc.
However, my point is, since we all spent a fortune on this machine we shouldn't go to that extend to fix this issue. If i want to lay on the couch and have my MacBook pro on my lap; then this is my will to do so, now I can't be comfortable laying on the couch and having the MacBook Pro on my lap without worrying that it will overheat, which totally *****!
APPLE I'm disappointed in you

First of all, I really doubt that Apple is trying to avoid the use of the word laptop because of usage implications, they just call the model by its name or using the now more ubiquitous term "notebook". Second, I'm really not sure how you have come to the conclusion that if you keep your MBP on your lap for too long it will overheat, within my business we have owned a good 15 version of Apple laptops and I have yet to see one overheat. Yes, it will get hot if you leave it on your lap while watching a HD video and encoding an H.264 movie in the background, but the fans will cool the machine just fine (assuming that you don't have the machine wrapped in a blanket or something).
The vent on the MBP is located in a very good spot where it is extremely hard to block, if you want side vents go buy a 6" thick 12 pound Dell, I'm sure it has some massive fans on the side, after all there's sure plenty of room. In fact, speaking of Dells and other PC laptop brands, the Mac is notoriously good at handling heat and doesn't have effects like you see with a lot of PCs (i.e. sound card shutting down, machine overheating, etc.). As I said before, I have yet to see a single one of my many Mac laptops overheat, from the iBooks to the MacBook Pros and I probably use my machine on my lap at least 50% of the time.

Can I use Mac Book at same time as watching something on Apple TV?

Hi
I recently purchased a Mac Book Pro along with Apple TV. I purchased a movie via Lovefilm (UK based site) on a "watch it now" basis. I then proceeded to watch using Airplay and "mirroring". However doing it this way I quickly realised that while the movie is playing on my TV I obviously cannot use my Mac in the meantime, for example searching internet, emails or other documetns.
Is there a way around this? Can I use Apple TV another way so I can send content from my Mac to the TV to play, but be able to use the Mac at the same time as a computer?
Thanks for your help! I'm a first time Mac person after 17 years of Windows so still finding my way around!

Hi alstemp, don't use AirPlay Mirroring for watching movies that you put in your iTunes library. It will not only prevent you from doing anything else on your MBP, but it's also pretty system-intensive. Save AirPlay Mirroring for when you need to do something on the big screen or when you're streaming something from a website.
What you have to do is set up Home Sharing in iTunes. To enable this, go to Preferences (click on "iTunes" on the menu bar and select "Preferences" or press the command and comma [,] keys at the same time). In the window that opens, click the Sharing icon. Make sure the box labeled "Share my library on my local network" is checked then hit OK.
Now turn on your Apple TV and go to Settings. Scroll down to Computers and click Turn On Home Sharing (if the button is labeled Turn Off Home Sharing, then it's already enabled). If you haven't entered your Apple ID and password on your ATV yet, you'll be prompted to do so.
Go back to the ATV's main menu and select the Computers icon. You'll now be able to access the media in your iTunes library from your ATV.
Note that Home Sharing will only work if your computer is on and running iTunes.
EDIT: I see now that you said you bought this film through Lovefilm. Unfortunately, as far as I know, Lovefilm is a streaming service and not yet available on the ATV. So for now, you will be stuck with AirPlay Mirroring. Note that you can also rent movies through iTunes.

If Apple EarPods just randomly decided to break into 2 pieces and get stuck in the headphone jack, will Apple replace or repair the iPad for free?

After I was done listening to some music, I of course puller out the EarPods from the headphone jack. But then I noticed how the tip broke into 2, so half of the tip is stuck in the headphone jack. Since they were Apple EarPods, and I didn't inflict any damage to them, would I receive a free repair or replacement on my iPad?

Are you still under warranty? You're going to have a tough time convincing them it wasn't your fault they broke, I predict. In any case, someone else had a good idea on one of these types of threads: take it to an electronics shop as they probably deal with this situation quite frequently.

Bluetooth Headphones and iPad/Apple TV; audio-video split

Apparently Apple TV can't output to Bluetooth headphones?
Is it possible to say; play a YouTube Vid on iPad; where the video is Airstreamed to Apple TV; but the audio output goes from the iPad to a set of Bluetooth Headphones; instead of to the TV? Bluetooth headphones work fine with an iPad.

Probably software - it would actually be a great enhancement for many people.
