IPhone integration suggestion

I'm very interested in buying an iPhone but have concerns about accumulating multiple pieces of computer equipment. It would be really nice if Apple would develop a sort of docking system for the iPhone where the iPhone could be plugged into a notebook shell like a card. The iPhone would be the master processor and notebook would be an auxiliary where processors would augment as parallel processors (more power). The shell would hold a larger hard drive (store music, data, applications, etc.). You could have internet access and telephone capability through the iPhone while you're working on a document as your riding on a train or a bus. You can leave the shell in your office/home if all you need is the finished product. You'd have the portability of the iPhone with the utility of a notebook all in one integrated unit instead of having a bunch of pieces floating around. Sell it as one unit (basically take the new "Air" notebook and put a slot in it for the iPhone). Away you go.

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

    Maybe it would have been a better idea to confirm that iTunes is supported in Windows 8 before buying a computer with that Operating System.
    There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.
    Like the fact that you just called most of us stupid there

    I also lost my ringtones.  I have spent about $100 dollars on ringtones to apply different songs to different callers...and now i can't find them.

    After updating to Maverick on my Mac - unable to open numbers or pages docs on iPad or iPhone any suggestions or info?

    I Just found it on the apple site, it arrived on a cd a few days later and worked just fine again.
    i would recommend backing everything up just in case. Better safe than sorry, trust me. I've lost so much when i didnt back up once when re-installing the system.
    IT shoulldnt erase everything, bt it might, so back up just in case
    should you loose everything, then i have some tips on moving stuff fromyour iphone/ipod to the computer

    I am now unable to download email to both my iMac and my MacBook Pro.  I have accessed my verizon.net account directly and all of the emails are there.  The issue appears to be that the messages will not download to either of these machines - they do download directly to both iPhones.  Any suggestions?  Thanks

    Hi Zak, thanks for the reply.
    The filename is whatever is set to be the background fill of the site (I presume the desktop background fill, if mobile versions are set to be different). I've tried a number of different files, sizes and types/formats and the result is still the same, so as far as I can tell it's not the file itself causing the issue...
    It uploads all pages (desktop, tablet and phone versions), .css files and .html files, and even the favicon .ico file but then hangs on the first image file, which incidentally is the background fill image.
    The total number of files is said to be 154. It gets stuck on file number 24.
    Yes the "Resume" dialog appears and upon clicking it just attempts to continue from the hang at the first image file (apparently 66% of the way through).
    Re: the "BC site has changed" part - I thought as much but figured worth reporting.
    ... Incidentally, as I've written this reply, I left the "Resume" dialog open (ie neither clicking "resume" or "cancel" and just as I've finished typing it appears to have published the site successfully?!! (I must've left it for roughly 5 minutes)
    Bizarre behaviour... I'm not sure if this will repeat itself with other sites but I'm sure there's a bug here that needs looking at regardless...?!
    Any thoughts?

  • How do I make iCloud work between my Mac and my iPhone as suggested in the video's on Apple's website ?

    I'm trying to share a set of Numbers projects between my MacBook and my iPhone.
    I notice that iWork.com does NOT do what I am expecting from the Apple Video's : it only allows me to consult documents through Safari, but not to open one directly from iCloud.com in the appropriate app for editing ...
    Through file sharing in iTunes it seems to work for one of the projects ... but another project which has multiple tabs and rather long tables doesn't open on my iPhone due to "unknown error" ...
    Even then, the iTunes file sharing process can hardly be called seemless, and in no way even approaches what is suggested in the video's :
    The video's suggest that when working on a file on one device, then picking up another device the file will show the changes ...
    In reality here's what I have to do to make a change on the file on my Mac, share it with the iPhone, then change something on the iPhone and share it back with my Mac :
    1. save the changes to the document
    2. add the document to iTunes file sharing
    3. sync my iPhone
    4. open Numbers on my iPhone
    5. add the document from iTunes
    6. open it
    7. make a change
    8. sync the iPhone
    9. choose "save as ..." in iTunes to overwrite the copy on my Mac
    10. open the document in Numbers on the Mac
    Guess what ... when making a new change, I have to go back in iTunes, delete the link to the document and add the document again in order to be able to share the change ...
    I would expect the syncing with iTunes to at least take care of the file updating on the respective copies on Mac and iOS device ... apparently not so.
    Anyone knows how to really make Documents In The Cloud work ?

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?

  • Looking for a camera with the flip photo capability of the iPhone~ any suggestions?

    Looking for a digital (small) camera that would allow me to see myself when taking a photo without having to flip the camera completely around... Are there any suggestions on where I should start to look/recommendations? New to the camera world!

    How much do you want to spend?  What do you think about the D5200?  With a DSLR sensor, the image quality will be incredible compared to an iPhone.  Need more light?  Just add an external flash.

  • Web gallery for iPad and iPhone -- your suggestions

    Hi,
    My current website has Flash-based galleries created in LR using SlideShowPro.  I want to create an alternate web gallery for viewing on the iPad and iPhone.  Can someone here recommend a LR web gallery plug-in for this purpose?  If possible, I'd like the gallery to work the way the iPhone Camera Roll works, but at very least, I'd like viewers to be able to simply flick their way through the images.  (SlideShowPro Director does this, but I'm not quite ready to take on its complexity.)
    I found a pretty nice solution here:

    Someone else just asked this and I answered. You can use the hard drive publish service to push photos into a gallery that synchronizes with iTunes. It works really well.
    Here is the other post:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4410886#4410886
    I use the hard drive publish service to create galleries for my iPad. I setup iTunes to sync photos from a particular folder, and then setup Lightroom to publish to that folder. Each time I want to create a new gallery for my iPad, I just create a new published folder and drop the photos into that folder. Then I publish the photos. The publish feature allows me to update photos in collections easily, as well as setup specific sizes for export to my iPad.
    I have also used published smart collections for my portfolio images. When I tag a photo with a particular gallery keyword, it gets added to the collection. I then just publish the photos in the service and I've got them on my ipad. It works really well!
    Setup a hard drive publish service
    Open the Library module
    Go to the Publish Services.
    Press the + to and choose Go to publishing manager.
    Click Add
    Choose Hard drive as the service type. Name the publish service iPad Photos
    Choose to export your photos to a specific location. Make note of this location and instruct iTunes to use the same location for synchronizing photos. Do not choose to put in a subfolder.
    Choose the format as JPEG, Color space as sRGB, and set your quality in the File Settings section.
    Choose to resize your photos to fit the iPad in the image resizing section. I have chosen Width & Height of 1500x1500. This will give black bars if your photo doesn't match the aspect ratio of the iPad. You can also choose Dimensions and set a dimension. The output photo will be cropped to fill the screen. I have an iPad 2 and wanted to be able to zoom a bit, so I chose dimensions larger than the iPad.
    Set the other options as needed -- sharpening, metadata, and watermarking.
    Click Save.
    Back at the Library module you should now find your new publish service. Create a gallery.
    Right click the service and choose Create Published Folder.
    Name the folder the name you want to appear in your iPad Photos app.
    Drop files from the photo browser into this new collection.
    Right click the collection and choose Publish Now.
    Repeat these 4 steps anytime you want to create a new gallery on your iPad.
    All you need to do now is to sync the photos on your ipad using iTunes.
