IPhone 4 Case to specifically help with RSI (Repetitive strain injury)

Hello! Does anyone know of a case, that would help someone who suffers with RSI?  (Repetitive strain injury).  I find the iPhone 4 rather uncomfortable to hold.
I did see somebody on the train the other day who's case which has a hard front and sides but a very soft cushioned back. I've tried to Google this but it's impossible and I've also been to the Apple store.
Many thanks.

The issue is when our sweaty, meaty hands make contact with the antenna so anything which is non-conductive. So any plastic or rubber case will do the job.
This will fix the issue where bridging the two antennas causes things to go squiffy and make the iphone respond like every other phone.
I find it strange that people are acting like signal attenuation is totally new. Every phone ever made looses signal when lost. The issue is that the bare antenna means the signal loss is higher than any other phone. The case just puts things back in balance and signal loss will occur but back in line with other phones.

  • How do I set up a calendar on my iphone that doesn't sync with iCloud?

    I have an iPhone, iPad , iMac and Mac mini all connected to iCloud for syncing of iCal, Mail, Address Book etc.
    I want to set up a calendar on my iPhone that doesn't sync to my other devices, so that I can set reminders that will only pop up on the iPhone.
    Can anyone help with advice? Does iCal/iCloud handle this?

    Have read the printer manual, it will contain instructions for connecting it to a network, and then to your Mac. You don't identify this printer so it's difficult to be more specific.
    You can also go to the printer manufacturers website and seek assistance there.

  • Help with encapsulation and a specific case of design

    Hello all. I have been playing with Java (my first real language and first OOP language) for a couple months now. Right now I am trying to write my first real application, but I want to design it right and I am smashing my head against the wall with my data structure, specifically with encapsulation.
    I go into detail about my app below, but it gets long so for those who don't want to read that far, let me just put these two questions up front:
    1) How do principles of encapsulation change when members are complex objects rather than primitives? If the member objects themselves have only primitive members and show good encapsulation, does it make sense to pass a reference to them? Or does good encapsulation demand that I deep-clone all the way to the bottom of my data structure and pass only cloned objects through my top level accessors? Does the analysis change when the structure gets three or four levels deep? Don't DOM structures built of walkable nodes violate basic principles of encapsulation?
    2) "Encapsulation" is sometimes used to mean no public members, othertimes to mean no public members AND no setter methods. The reasons for the first are obvious, but why go to the extreme of the latter? More importantly HOW do you go to the extreme of the latter? Would an "updatePrices" method that updates encapsulated member prices based on calculations, taking a single argument of say the time of year be considered a "setter" method that violates the stricter vision of encapsulation?
    Even help with just those two questions would be great. For the masochistic, on to my app... The present code is at
    http://www.immortalcoil.org/drake/Code.zip
    The most basic form of the application is statistics driven flash card software for Japanese Kanji (Chinese characters). For those who do not know, these are ideographic characters that represent concepts rather than sounds. There are a few thousand. In abstract terms, my data structure needs to represent the following.
    -  There are a bunch of kanji.
       Each kanji is defined by:
       -  a single character (the kanji itself); and
       -  multiple readings which fall into two categories of "on" and "kun".
          Each reading is defined by:
          -  A string of hiragana or katakana (Japanese phoenetic characters); and
          -  Statistics that I keep to represent knowledge of that reading/kanji pair.Ideally the structure should be extensible. Later I might want to add statistics associated with the character itself rather than individual readings, for example. Right now I am thinking of building a data structure like so:
    -  A Vector that holds:
       -  custom KanjiEntry objects that each hold
          -  a kanji in a primitive char value; and
          -  two (on, kun) arrays or Vectors of custom Reading objects that hold
             -  the reading in a String; and
             -  statistics of some sort, probably in primitive valuesFirst of all, is this approach sensible in the rough outlines?
    Now, I need to be able to do the obvious things... save to and load from file, generate tables and views, and edit values. The quesiton of editting values raises the questions I identified above as (1) and (2). Say I want to pull up a reading, quiz the user on it, and update its statistics based on whether the user got it right or wrong. I could do all this through the KanjiEntry object with a setter method that takes a zillion arguments like:
    theKanjiEntry.setStatistic(
    "on",   // which set of readings
    2,      // which element in that array or Vector
    "score", // which statistic
    98);      // the valueOr I could pass a clone of the Reading object out, work with that, then tell the KanjiEntry to replace the original with my modified clone.
    My instincts balk at the first approach, and a little at the second. Doesn't it make more sense to work with a reference to the Reading object? Or is that bad encapsulation?
    A second point. When running flash cards, I do not care about the subtlties of the structure, like whether a reading is an on or a kun (although this is important when browsing a table representing the entire structure). All I really care about is kanij/reading pairings. And I should be able to quickly poll the Reading objects to see which ones need quizzing the most, based on their statistics. I was thinking of making a nice neat Hashtable with the keys being the kanji characters in Strings (not the KanjiEntry objects) and the values being the Reading objects. The result would be two indeces to the Reading objects... the basic structure and my ad hoc hashtable for runninq quizzes. Then I would just make sure that they stay in sync in terms of the higher level structure (like if a whole new KanjiEntry got added). Is this bad form, or even downright dangerous?
    Apart from good form, the other consideration bouncing around in my head is that if I get all crazy with deep cloning and filling the bottom level guys with instance methods then this puppy is going to get bloated or lag when there are several thousand kanji in memory at once.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Usually by better design. Move methods that use the
    getters inside the class that actually has the data....
    As a basic rule of thumb:
    The one who has the data is the one using it. If
    another class needs that data, wonder what for and
    consider moving that operation away from that class.
    Or move from pull to push: instead of A getting
    something from B, have B give it to A as a method
    call argument.Thanks for the response. I think I see what you are saying.. in my case it is something like this.
    Solution 1 (disfavored):
    public class kanjiDrill{ // a chunk of Swing GUI or something
         public void runDrill(Vector kanjiEntries){
              KanjiEntry currentKanjiEntry = kanjiEntries.elementAt(0); // except really I will pick one randomly
              char theKanji = currentKanjiEntry.getKanji();
              String theReading = currentKanjiEntry.getReading();
              // build and show a flashcard based on theKanji and theReading
              // use a setter to change currentKanji's data based on whether the user answers correctly;
    }Solution 2 (favored):
    public class kanjiDrill{ // a chunk of Swing GUI or something
         public void runDrill(Vector kanjiEntries){
              KanjiEntry currentKanjiEntry = kanjiEntries.elementAt(0); // except really I will pick one randomly
              currentKanji.buildAndShowFlashcard(); // method includes updating stats
    }I can definitely see the advantages to this, but two potential reasons to think hard about it occur to me right away. First, if this process is carried out to a sufficient extreme the objects that hold my data end up sucking in all the functionality of my program and my objects stop resembling natural concepts.
    In your shopping example, say you want to generate price tags for the items. The price tags can be generated with ONLY the raw price, because we do not want the VAT on them. They are simple GIF graphics that have the price printed on a an irregular polygon. Should all that graphics generating code really go into the item objects, or should we just get the price out of the object with a simple getter method and then make the tags?
    My second concern is that the more instance methods I put into my bottom level data objects the bigger they get, and I intend to have thousands of these things in memory. Is there a balance to strike at some point?
    It's not really a setter. Outsiders are not setting
    the items price - it's rather updating its own price
    given an argument. This is exactly how it should be,
    see my above point. A breach of encapsulation would
    be: another object gets the item price, re-calculates
    it using a date it knows, and sets the price again.
    You can see yourself that pushing the date into the
    item's method is much beter than breaching
    encapsulation and getting and setting the price.So the point is not "don't allow access to the members" (which after all you are still doing, albeit less directly) so much as "make sure that any functionality implicated in working with the members is handled within the object," right? Take your shopping example. Say we live in a country where there is no VAT and the app will never be used internationally. Then we would resort to a simple setter/getter scheme, right? Or is the answer that if the object really is pure data are almost so, then it should be turned into a standard java.util collection instead of a custom class?
    Thanks for the help.

  • Will iphone cases work with the touch

    when looking for a case, can you use an iphone case?
    or do you have to buy specific touch cases?

    1G Touch cases also won't work with the 2G Touch that was just released. The case is a slightly different shape and there's a volume control on the side that would be covered by a 1G case.
    The way power is supplied to the Touch through the dock connector changed as well.

  • Help with contacts between iphone and address book

    I am learning my way through the syncing activities and will say, as some other have, that it is a bit more complicated than I had hoped. I've had a mac for over 20 years and used the older mac.com, which I would sync with my computer. I did not renew it when I found I wasn't using it for the cost.
    I recently got my first iphone and had the contacts moved from my old cell phone by AT&T when I bought it.
    I have a lot of contacts in my imac's address book and I do not want to move all of them to my iphone. Some are just historical in case I want to email that person. For my iphone, I just want the contacts I use most often.
    So, in address book, I made a new group and named it iphone contacts. In this I have about 20 cnotacts with email addresses.
    On my iphone, I have many of these same people listed, but just their phone numbers as I did not send emails from my previous wireless phone.
    So my questions are:
    is there any way to get the two to combine via syncing? I want to keep the phone numbers in the iphone contacts and combine them with the email addresses that are in my address book on the imac. I would like to avoid having to open them both and do a lengthy copy and paste event But unless there is some way to tell the lists to combine with each other, on the iphone and in the group list I made in address book that I name iphone contacts, than that is what I'll do. But I thought it was worth a query here to see what options I might have.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Bump, I did not get any replies to my query if there was a way to combine my iphone numbers in my cell phone contacts with email addresses in a group list in my imac's address book via syncing, so I am wondering if anyone knows if there is an app that might help me.
    Thank you in advance.

  • IPhone Case With Wrist Strap?

    Now that the iPhone 4 is a serious HD camcorder, and a much better stills camera, the need for a wrist strap is even greater. Products like the Flip Mino come with an integrated wrist strap hook, a little hole in the side of the device that allows you to thread a wrist strap through. But the iPhone 4 doesn't.
    So my question is, does anyone know of any cases that have an integrated wrist strap hook? Failing that, are there any iPhone cases that have a fixed (non-removable) wrist strap?

    Until my phone was stolen last night I had this exact Belkin Ergo:
    http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=512055
    And I really liked it.  The case was low profile enough to fit in the pocket of my jeans or purse, the strap was sturdy and springy (I tied a knot in it to make the loop smaller) and I was definitely using the **** out of it.  The back of the phone is contoured with ridges which looks more helpful for shoulder cradling than it really is, but it does reduce slippage.
    I recommend this product!  I am buying a second one now, and am grateful you helped me refind the link without having to go through all my receipts.
    The Interim below looks very nerve-wracking in terms of where the cable is attached.

  • I desperately need help with Mail, specifically sending

    For Starters:  I am on OSX 10.9.2 and am trying to use mail 7.2.
    https://discussions.apple.com/post!input.jspa?container=2998&containerType=14&qu estion=I+desperately+need+help+with+Mail%2C+specifically+sending
    I cannot send.  I have been at this for hours and hours and hours.  Here are the details.
    my mail server however is s1.sistercompany.net
    I can receive email just fine.  I can also send mail just find having set this up on my iphone and also in thunderbird (which i hate hate hate hate hate hate hate, which is why I am desperate to set up mail)
    The settings in thunderbird are as follows:
    Servername: s1.sistercompany.net
    port: 465
    Authentication method:  normal password
    Connection Security:  SSL/TLS
    However, I just can't get this to work in Mail.  When I write an email and hit send I get a popup that says:
    Cannot send message using the server s1.sistercompany.net
    The certifcate for this server is invalid.
    Now, my tech guy says yeah the certifacte is invalid because you are going through sistercompany server, there should be some way to just accept the certifcate anyway (but he has never used mail before).
    So I have serached around and come up with this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11706
    Which tells me to use the verify certificate dialogue, which I would do except there is no verify certificate dialog.  Any thoughts?

  • Any Iphone case (snaps tightly) with belt clip ?

    Can anyone suggest Iphone case with belt clip (with rotation upto 90 degrees or more).
    I have tried several of them (with belt clip) all of them are not snapping iphone properly and have a feeling that iphone may fall if walk little fast.
    Has any one has any suggestions.
    Earlier I had a motorola phone whose holster with belt clip snaps in properly

    I bough that case and returned it when I accidentally
    figured out how to get the phone out. Once you put
    the iPhone in the case, it's close to impossible to
    remove the phone to the point of breaking the case.
    It suggests to slide out the phone: the angle is too
    tight and it was close to scratching the screen.
    Highly not recommended and stay clear from this case!
    I agree. I bought one when I got the iPhone last week, mostly because I didn't want to use it without any case at all. You're right: it's very difficult to remove the iPhone. Plus, the belt clip feels very flimsy.
    I'm holding out for a leather case with some padding to protect the iPhone when I drop it. Ideally, I'd like one similar to the case that I bought for my Sony PDA six years ago. It was pricey (about $71 with shipping), but worth every penny. I just checked the company's Web site (http://www.vajacases.com) - they make an iPhone case, but it looks like you have to remove the phone to use it. They apparently have more designs on the way, though.
    (The funny part is that the iPhone with the clear case fits almost perfectly in my Vaja case! I think I may use it that way until they come out with a flip case that's specifically designed for it.)

    Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
    I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud  2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel.  I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version). 
    The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.”  After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
    Sound familiar?  Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue?  Thanks much in advance!

  • Looking for help with respect to configuring MS Exchange server to handle attachments over 10 MB for forwarding to Salesforce (Email-to-case).

    Looking for help with respect to configuring MS Exchange server to handle attachments over 10 MB for forwarding to Salesforce (Email-to-case).
    Problem - SFDC does not create cases from emails that have more than 10 MB of attachments. Our clients will not go-live if their clients cannot send in emails with attachments over 10 MBs
    Potential resolution - Configure MS exchange to strip off the attachments(if over 10 MB) and store it in a public folder, forward the email to Salesforce (so the case gets created or the email
    is associated to an existing case), the client should have some way to know if the attachments were stripped off and should be able to dlownload the attachments and continue with case resolution.
    Any help is appreicated!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    From your description, you want to achieve the following goal:
    Configure Exchange to filter the attachments if the size is over 10 MB and store it in a public folder, and then forward the email to Salesforce.
    Based on my knowledge, I'm afraid that it can't be achieved. Exchange can filter messages with attachments, but it couldn't store these attachments on public folder automatically. Also, I don't see any transport rule can do it.
    Hope my clarification is helpful.

    My iphone 5 doesn't sync with itunes on my pc. it says this computer has  previously been synced to another io6 device or iphone? please help what to do?

    The error message you're seeing is likely the other way around -- i.e. something like "This iPhone has previously been synced with a different computer".   There's no problem syncing multiple iOS devices to the same computer.
    However, the reverse is not true for the iPhone --  you cannot connect an iPhone to another computer without it being erased, even if you manually manage music and video.  So, it sounds like you've been syncing your iPhone to a different computer?
    Also, 5.1 (not 5.0.1) is the latest iOS.
