HT1414 So is there a reason why the so called amazing apple company creates a feature that if you forget your passcode they can't email the wonderful thing?

It is annoying, I'm sure I will get some smartass comments about this because "well apple is just that best darn thing out there" or "its your fault" I don't give a **** this is annoying.

Apple does not have your password.
Apple does not have a magic backdoor into the device
It's a security and privacy thing.
If you can't remember your own passcode, it's your fault and you should not set one.

    Is there a reason why the mail badge icon on my iPad doesn't disappear when I open an email on my iPhone using my iCloud account?

    Hi everyone!
    Looking also for an app that allows me to merge email and send them out to each recipient individually. Apparently that's not possible yet. Here's what the guys at RedbitsApps told me about Group Email capabilities: 
    "The current version of the app relies on the device operating system to send the emails. For this reason, sending individual email instead of a single email to multiple recipients is not possible. Apple doesn't allow apps to send single emails to many recipients easily. We may use a custom sending software in a future version."
    Let's keep looking guys... 

  • If you forget your passcode and do a restore will this gain access again to the unit?

    If you forget your passcode and a complete restore, will this gain access to the unit?

    Yes. For the screen-lock passcode you can restore from backup. You may have to place the iPod in recovery mode to do the restore. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Ifyou lost the Restrictions passcode yiou have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Is there a reason why the iOS 7 update put my phone into recovery mode?

    I was prompted to update my phone, which I did, and when it finished downloading, I got the "Connect to iTunes" screen, which I thought was odd. The iTunes tells me it was put into recovery mode. Is there any reason as to why this happened?

    Oh no! My iTunes doesn't want to recognize my phone now either.

  • Is there any reason why the spray brush tool is not present in my tools?

    It appears this tool is not in my tools, can anyone tell me how to obtain it??

    It is normally paired with the Brush tool.  Click down and hold to make the menu appear.

    Is there a reason why my macbook pro didn't come with a disc?

    If you just bought it and it came with Lion then you don't get a DVD. Instead what they have done is created a Recovery Partition on the drive that serves the same function.

  • Repeating the message 'Did you forget your password? "message. Help

    When I try to login to the iTunes store or check my account I get the error message:
    *Did you forget your password? Your password was incorrectly entered numerous times and for your protection, you will need to retrieve it before continuing to use the iTunes store'*
    Of course I have followed the link, re-set my password, tried to log in and I get the message again - and again - and again
    the iphone works normally.
    any ideas?

    as you suspected, when you click on that "Did you forget your password" link on your local install, you're supposed to be taken to the screen where you can have your password reset to a system-generated value. after resetting the password, an email is then sent to the email address associated with that users record. having said this, can you let me know the URL to which that link is directing you on your local install (sending it to [email protected] would be great)? it sounds as if it's not pointing to the right place...for some reason. to be thorough, could you maybe include the url of the screen you're coming from as well? maybe there'll be a clue there as to what might be causing your issue.
    thanks,

  • Why is the window for entering bookmarks so small? Is there any reason why it cannot be resizable so that users can expand it if necessary.

    I have a problem with the window size when entering bookmarks. I would like to expand the window so that I do not have to scroll down through the many folders I have.
    Is there any special reason why the window is a fixed size? As far as I can see there should not be any problem with having a window which users can expand if necessary.
    Thank you,
    Sasha

    I am using final cut express 4. It seems that any clip over a certain length, say 5 min, does not fully transfer! All shorter clips are perfectly fine. Is there some reason why longer clips are not fully transferred? (a half blue circle shows up on the transfer list, indicating that the clip was not fully transferred. When I check in the capture scratch folder, sure enough the whole clip is not there!
    Is there some glitch in final cut express that only allows short clips to be transferred in full?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try to answer all the questions (I am a relative novice). Your help is appreciated.
    By the way, the other reply I received suggested the following:
    In Final Cut Express>System Settings>Scratch Discs make sure the Limit Capture/Export File Segement Size To: is not checked.
    I did this and it was already unchecked. So this is not the answer...
    The strange thing is, I have been logging and transferring with FCE for 2 yrs without any problems at all with shorter clips, but have come up against the problem with long clips (over 5 or so min)  the whole time. I got around it by simply making sure I stopped recording after less than 5 min while shooting footage. OR if I accidentally got a long clip, I import into imovie and then import into FCE. Not very streamline and I worry about compressions altering quality!
    I am now trying to import a 20 min and a 17 min clip and it only transfers around 3 minutes of each, I have re-tried several times and it happens repeatedly. The blue circle in the transfer list shows up as a half blue circle instead of full. Clip cuts off after 3 or so minutes.

  • When I save a filtered photo from my iphone (filtered with "Tonal") onto my desktop into iPhoto, the filter dissappears and its saved as a standard color photo. Is there a reason why and way I can save it as is?

    When I save a filtered photo from my iphone (filtered with "Tonal") onto my desktop into iPhoto, the filter dissappears and its saved as a standard color photo. Is there a reason why and way I can save it as is?

    The reason is that Apple screwed up and despite threads for this issue dating back several months, there is no fix.  It's outrageous -- a dozen or so photos that I just took got completely screwed up because of this.  There isn't even a way to replicate the effects in iPhoto without major guesswork and tweaking.
    I mean this isn't even something that should be an issue.  How Apple thought that a user would want his filters to disappear is beyond me.  I mean it's so absolutely counterintuitive that I'm baffled that such a destructive 'feature' could've made it through.
    So much for Apple's quality control!  They'll forever say it's intentional and part of the 'lossless' design where the effects aren't permanently applied, but there should be an option.  Some users want their filters to stay when they take them.
    In fact, ALL USERS WANT THE FILTERS TO STAY.

  • I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

    I just deleted an email account on my iPhone 5s and all my notes just disappeared when I went to access them. Is there a reason why my notes would just disappear? I don't recall linking my notes to the email account I deleted.

    I've wondered about this issue as well. I have multiple email accounts, some old ones that I don't use much, others setup for support of particular projects/groups.
    I have no idea how and/or why some notes are linked to a particular account.
    I'd much prefer to have the ability to link all of them to an account of my choosing, thus when emailing from a note tied to a specific email account, that account would automatically be used to perform that email.
    But more importantly, why can't we be allowed to create 'folders' that function the same way as the Finder on my Mac. This file structure could then be accessed by every iOS app and device.
    This type of file structure would be a god-send for the camera roll on my phone. I HATE having all my pictures in one huge clump (cloud?)! After all, who wants to live under a cloud all the time?

  • Reasons why the E72 is NOT a 'smartphone'

    Contrary to what Nokia says in its marketing blurb and what the dealer claims, the Nokia E72 (and by inference, others in its ilk) is NOT a 'smartphone' by any stretch of the mind.  Yes, the E72 (and its predecessor the E71 and to a lesser extent the E63) are designs of beauty, good form factor, full QWERTY keyboard, brilliant screen, good camera and wonderful media compatibility features.  But a 'smartphone' is more.  The following are some reasons (having owned - and regretted big time - an E72 for the past 2 weeks:
    1. Top of my complaints list is the fact that the E72 does not have a good desktop suite.  The Nokia PC Suite that it ships with is a poor substitute.  For one, it merely allows the phone's contents to be viewed on a PC screen; it does not allow for the phone's data to be viewed or manipulated offline.  What this means is that the E72 must be connected to the PC for you to be able to see the contents.  What a 'smartphone' needs is the ability for its desktop suite software to be able to be used even when the phone is not connected to the PC (ie offline). This requires a full copy of the phone's data to be stored on the PC and one is able to view, change, edit, etc this data.
    Reasons why one wold want to work offline on the PC are many.  Firstly, it lets you edit the data on the PC (much easier to work on a full PC than on an E72). You can input all your contacts data, etc on the PC then sync to the phone.  Similarly, other data (such as diary events, notes, etc can be authored on a PC and then uploaded on to the E72.  Additionally, one can use the PC Suite software as your main PIM (personal info management) software.  But I suppose Nokia doesn't want people to be able to do that.  What a shame, if that's what the modern day executive needs then he'll just go elsewhere.
    Another reason why the PC Suite software should allow full data manipulation is ... what if your phone is lost, how would you access all your info (contacts, calendar events, memos, notes, etc)?  Even if you have a daily backup, the Nokia user would actually need to acquire another phone (similar model or equivalent) and then do a restore.  Until then, the backup file is of no use (because it cannot be viewed or manipulated).  Such backup strategies (in proprietary flat files) are from the dark ages of computer technology!  Nokia still believes it is cutting edge!
    2. Nokia's PC Suite software is a joke.  Not only does it require that the phone is connected to the PC for it to work, it actually handles data quite differently from the way the phone itself handles the same data!  You can change the fields on the phone but not on the PC Suite, eg you can edit the field on the phone from "Mobile" to "Mobile 1", you can create a new field called "Mobile 2" but on the PC Suite, all you get is the standard "Mobile" and the second mobile field you create is not found! Wow, what synchronisation!
    3. On the phone itself, a true 'smartphone' gives its user a multitude of options to do things his/her own way.  In calendar events mode, I may want to set alarms 15mins before or 30 mins after!  The E72 only allows before, that too only with a set of predetermined figures - ie I cannot set an alarm 23 mins before.
    For some events, I may want to repeat the event and its related alarm on a weekly, monthly or annual basis.  A professor may want to set a weekly alarm (starting from week 1 of the semester to week 14 of the semesster) for his lectures.  Another person may want to set an alarm on a certain day of the month for his loan repayment to the bank.  The Nokia allows you to set an annual anniversary alarm only.  I cannot set an alarm for an event 3 days ahead (say, to give me advance notice to buy a present for a loved one!)
    When editing calendar events, if you change a field but then decide to not keep the new figure, there is no option to cancel. Only the DONE button is present. You have to save (done) then re-edit the field. Silly.
    Similarly the Snooze buttin ought to give the user flexibility to put the alarm off for any set of time.  The phone may remind me of an upcoming event say 4 hours beforehand, I then need to put if off (snooze) for say an hour before it reminds me again.  That's what a 'smartphone' does, remind you politely like an english butler!
    4. The synchronising cable that Nokia ships with the E72 is another joke - its no longer than 6 inches long. Coupled with the requirement that the phone must be hooked up to the PC when doing any work on the PC Suite (see items 1 & 2 above), what if there is an incoming call? How do you answer the call with a 6 inche cable connecting the phone to the PC?  Sure Nokia want's to make savings, but it should be practical.
    The above are the main grouses that I have with the E72.  As any reader can aappreciate, they are all related to the software side of the phone.  At the moment - and with my unit being still new - I have not come across any issues related to the build quality. Yes the design of the battery cover seem flimsy. Its ok so far but I can see its not going to last that way for very long. Yes there is a bit of light leak directly under the Home key but I can live with it. The rear battery cover smudges easily and is a pain to keep clean, but hey, you can't have it all good.
    But as far as the software side is concerned, yes, I do expect it to perform well in handling my data.  We live in a modern world where most of us have an information overload in our daily lives.  That's why we look forward to a 'business smartphone' - a device that is better than a personal assistant and one I can carry in my pocket.  But when we have major global corporations such as Nokia promising you an 'advanced business smartphone' that actually falls three steps short, then I believe the public is being cheated for good.
    I hope other readers would read this post and are better informed about what kind of device they'd be getting should they decide to purchase an E72.  I also realise that Nokia may decide to edit (or even delete entirely) this post, but hey, if that happens, then I'd be promptem to post a copy of this review in a dozen other public forums.
    Have a great day!
    There ought to be laws out there on the use of the term 'smartphone'

    You are correct, well done - it is my view.
    But no, I am disabled and don't work for anyone, but I was a programming consultant.
    If I'm buying or bought anything in the past such as an E71 or E72 then I make sure it can do what I need it to before hand. The E71 surpassed my requirements.
    Mine came with a USB cable over a meter long, however I use bluetooth and need to do nothing - if my PC is on it knows my phone is there and visa versa without me doing anything (smart!).
    The phone can access any of my PC files I require using the phone even when I am out and the PC is switched off. The phone tells me which bus stops to get off at and which way to go when I do. The phone can manage all my calls right down to tailoring for specific numbers and depending on my GPS location do different things. I can automatically order my repeat prescriptions from anywhere and watch live TV or stream my favourite radio stations wherever I am. I can use msn or any messenger, wherever I am - I could go on and on - my phone is definitely 'smart'.
    Ovi is similar to PC suite but much more. You can sync contacts with the ovi server and then access them from any PC. I don't need that functionality so I don't know it very well but I have used it a few times. Ovi is Nokia's mobile web service, go to 'my nokia' to find out, its not difficult.
    I have no need to read your post again, none of what you said justifies the heading you gave this thread.
    If your beloved Palm is so great then go buy another one, why would we be bothered about them in this thread.
    Bottom line is this, you have NOT given any good reasons why the E72 (or any E series phone) 'is NOT a smartphone'. What you believe we think about what is excellent is irrelevant.

  • Any reasons why the content of a fillable form cannot be viewed or printed?

    I have created a 2-page form on Adobe Acrobat XPro. I emailed it to specific people and they filled it out, saved it and emailed it back. I am able to view what they typed in my monitor only, when I click on the field, but it will not print the content. Any reasons why the content of a fillable form cannot be viewed or printed?

    That's what I asked the people I emailed the form to and someone just emailed me saying: "I'll check my adobe. It keeps asking me to update and I keep ignoring it so maybe it was my fault". So there is the answer I guess. I saved the document as an Extended PDF and selected Enable Additional Features. Is there anything else I should consider?
