Iphone (and Ipod) security option.

Although the look and feel of those nice objects is raising the perfection, may I suggest that a little hole could be made in the metallic part in order to optionnally screw a safety accessory to keep the phone in hand/in the pocket with a chain or attached to a necklace. If you remember the old Ericsson T39M, you have the figure!
What do you think? Could'nt it be useful to avoid some theft of this very tempting object?!
regards,
Claude

Are you suggesting that users drill a hole in their hand in order to chain the iPhone to it?
As much as no one wants to loose their iPhone, I don't think that chaining it to a hole in one's hand is the best solution.

  • My Ipad 2 external speakers does not work and headphones has popping sound. This all occured at the same time as my Iphone and Ipod headphones only played mono (no, the "mono" option is not on). How can there be audio issue for all these devices?

    My IPad 2 external speaker does not work and the original headphones have popping sound when used. This all occurred at the same time as my IPhone and IPod headphones only plays mono (and no, the "mono" option is not on) with the original headphones, as well as, other headphones tested.  How can there be audio issue for all these devices at the same time?
    As you may have noted from the list of Apple devices I own, I believed in the Apple and the products it was producing; but it is hard to believe from my experience and the other voices within the Apple Community that we are all experiencing the same hardware issues. Especially since I recently, I upgraded to an IPhone 4g (no, my faith in IPhone 5 series is very little) and is experiencing the same audio problem as described above. So now, I am off to the Apple store again to be told that it’s a hardware problem on new IPhone. Really? Apple, what happen to the pride in the product you were producing?

    Everyone does things a little differently. I love to "jam " along with iTunes ( or old Lp's) . Always have. That's where/how I've learned to play .
    I'm sure leonieDF is giving a proper way to jam along on a keyboard with an iTune. He blows my mind all the time with what he knows. Nuff respects to him !
    What I do is make a GB project I call "Jam With". I'll make several new tracks that are blank. Just has a few instruments named in the blank tracks. You can change those per song ...
    Because I'm not concerned about changing the pitch / key.... of the iTune or the tempo ... I can simply play along with it.

  • IPhones and iPods ALL drop wireless at same time-but not iPad??

    In my family, we have mutliple Apple devices online at the same time.
    iPhone 3s
    iPhone 4s
    two iPods
    iPad 2
    I also have two work laptops and a personal laptop, all running Windows 7. Plus, I also have an XBOX 360 on a Linksys wireless gaming router (older one...can't run WPA2 security, only WPA)
    They are connected to internet with Netgear WNR2000 wireless router, running WPA security, up to 54 GB/s (I believe on 2.4 GHz).
    HERE'S MY ISSUE:
    About once every day or two, all of my iPhones and iPods will drop off of the wireless network - at the SAME TIME.  However, every other device in my house is running perfectly smoothly on the network.  Including the iPad 2, which never has any network issues.   The "fix" is, going over to the router and cycling it off and on again.  But that is not a real fix. 
    The dropping is kind of random, sometimes in the morning, sometimes in the evening.  But usually after several hours after a recycle.
    I have tried all kinds of router channels,1 -11, I have tried WEP and both kinds of WPA security (AES and TKIP).  I cannot do WPA2 because of my older Linksys access point.
    The problem started happening when I added security to the router.  But I do not want to have the router without security any longer, so removing it is not an option.
    Does anyone have any idea why all of my iPhones and iPods would drop the wireless network at the exact same time, however, my iPad 2 and every other device in my household NEVER drops?
    I have already tried renaming the network, and that doesn't help, and I have tried moving the channel around - no better.  I am trying reserved IP addressing for my i-devices...but am not optimistic. (I read about trying this somewhere...)
    Please help!  If someone could at least help explain what is common between my iPhones and iPods but not common with the iPad it might help me figure this out.

    @wjosten
    I agree that network interference can cause problems. I have surveyed the other close networks and tried multiple channels, same result.
    But if it were bad channels, I don't know how that would explain why only the same set of iDevices would all be thrown off network at same time (and it's always the same ones),  while my other devices all work fine. 
    My router is only single channel, so everything is on the 2.4ghz band.

  • TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
    If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
    Problem solved.
    And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

    You won't lose them, but they will be erased from the phone then put back on (so it may take a while).

  • SYNCING IPHONE AND IPOD TO MAC BOOK

    JUST PURCHASE MAC BOOK HOW DO I TRANSFER OR SET MY IPHONE AND IPOD UP ON THE MAC WITHOUT LOSING MY DATA

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Install and run iTunes then connect the device(s) with the USB cable that came with them, to use iTunes you will need to create an Account with the Apple Store. iTunes will backup/synch the data on your device(s) with your MacBook.

    Thanks

    On each of the phones you're gonna use a new Apple ID for iCloud: turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
    This will have no affect on the ID you share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

    connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.

  • How can I back up my iPhone and iPod to a new iCloud account without losing any data?

    Hello
    Before Mountain Lion comes out I want to create a new iCloud account because I don't want to use the @me.com email that I created with my current iCloud account. I want to create an entirely new account with a new @me.com email address. I use iCloud to back up my iPhone, iPod and am signed into it on my mac. Basically I want to back up my iPhone and iPod to a new iCloud account and not lose any data. Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks so much for any help.

    Before you connect to a new PC, make sure that autosync is disabled in Edit/Preferences/Devices, otherwise your phone will be wiped during the following sync.
    Then back up manually:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to the new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
    Transfer the purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

  • Synch between iPad, iPhone and iPod nano

    When I buy music on ITunes from iPad, how can I transfer the music to my iPhone and iPod nano without using a PC?

    With an iPhone then if you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded then it should appear in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone. For the Nano you can't, you will need to copy the music from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and then sync it to the Nano (and similarly for the phone if you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded) - you can't connect either of them to your iPad for direct trasnfer.
