IPod is too small.  iPad is too big.

The iPod Touch and an iPhone are too darn small. It is too difficult to type on the tiny touch keyboard. The frequent mistypes are infuriating. The keys I want to press do not get pressed. A physical keyboard would help. And I have not bought an iPad because it is too **** big. I can't carry it all the time. What I want is a bigger iPod Touch. Big enough to be easy to type on, and small enough to put in my jacket pocket. About 6 or 7 inches.

Steve Jobs yesterday said that a 7" iPad was not something Apple would do. So while it's possible they might change their minds down the road, it's not going to happen anytime soon. There are some external keyboards that claim to be compatible with the iPod touch, but I don't think that's a solution that would work for you. So if a larger screen is a necessity, you'll need to consider some other product, perhaps one of the 7" Android-based tablets starting to be announced.
Regards.

  • I iPod touch too big to use while working out?

    I have an iPhone 6 plus, Is it ok if i buy iPod touch to use while working out? or will it be too big? or should i buy shuffle? Nano isn't an option because i don't use nike  or radio. I'm confused. help?

    Thats what I thought, but my mind doesn't go away from touch as it has wifi usability! I can use that at gym! And also if i feel to use the apps while i put aside my 6+ for some time as it is large, I thought of iPod touch again! OMG I'm still confused.crazy apple!

  • IPad is too big, iPod is too small.... There should be an in between!

    I love the iPad. It does all kinds of cool things I want it to do but unless you want to carry a monster purse (or you're a man and don't want to carry a murse) it's too big for portability. The iPod on the other hand is extremely portable for anyone.... But it's too tiny for any kind of functionality. Typing is cumbersom. Enlarging a screen is annoying because there isn't enough area to enlarge some pages enough to read them and see something on another location on the same page at the same time. There are competitor products out there that are technologically inferior to the iPad but they would work by meeting the size requirements I'd need. Thoughts?

    Rumors say that Apple will be coming out with a smaller iPad (7") about the size of a Kindle around March or April of this year. But that is only the rumor, I don't know for sure. In the meantime I would get a nice leather case to carry my iPad in, looks like a small handbag. Look Here http://www.targus.com/uk/cases_tablet.asp

  • I have taken videos with my ipad and they are too big to e-mail.

    Is there a way to compress them, on ipad, or keep them from getting too big in the first place?
    I have looked all over in settings and I can't anything to tell it how big to make the files or how to lessen the quality so the file wouldn't get to big or anything like that.
    Then I looked for an app that might be able to do that. Like compressor for iPad. I didn't even know that there was something named compressor, I went looking for quicktime pro and found that.
    Does anyone know if what I'm asking is possible?

    Get it onto your computer. Then there are free programs like mpegstreamclip that will allow you to make it smaller (as in it records hidef and you can make it smaller pixelwise, which also reduces the size, like 320x280.
    you can then upload that to youtube and then share hte links with your family. (if you don't want to share the movies with the world, there are settings in youtube where you can make it 'unlisted' and only people that have the address can see your video)
    theoretically you can upload that 800 megger, presuming it's less than 8 minutes, but it'll take you quite a while both to upload and to process.
    I did get it unto my computer that is how know how big it was. I have tried a 'shrinking' program. The one I got and used is named Format Factory, and the one you said, mpegstreamclip, was mentioned in the other forum that I found a day or so back. It came out too pixelated for my liking, tha that is why I said I would use different settings or try another program.
    The files is longer than 8 mins and yeah, I know it would take a while to do just about anything with it.

  • When I open my iPad the page is too big for the screen and won't shrink down. The keypad has also become very 'sticky'

    Recently when I open any apps the pages are too big for the screen. They shrink when pinched but immediately become bigger again. It's very difficult to scroll too. The keypad has become very sticky. Missing letters and spaces when I type and needing to tap the keys much harder than usual

    I have the exact same problem, I think.  I was on my iPad 3's home page swiping R-L to locate a certain icon when all of a sudden the screen appeared to get HUGE.  So big I could only see one or two icons.  I couldn't even turn it off to try a reboot because after I pushed the sleep/wake button, I couldn't find the red slide bar.  I finally just had to wait for the battery to die, then recharge it, and it looked normal again.  I also spoke with several friends who haven either iPads or iPhones, and they've all had this happen to them.  I checked my accessibility settings, and Zoom was already off.  So what is causing this problem for so many people, and what can we do to prevent it?  Please help.

    I have created an ibook in ibook author and it appears in ibook on my Mac.  How do I get it on my iPad.  It is too big to email.

    You can install MAMPon you mac (free web server, no configuration needed).
    Put ePub file in Applications/MAMP/htdocs and you can download locally (quicker than Dropbox, Mega, etc...)
    On your iPad's nevigator type:
    http://mac_local-lan_IP:8888/NameOfYourBook.epub
    You can see local IP on: System Preferences/Lan or System Preferences/Sharing
    iPad and Mac must be in the same lan/wifi network.
    Best regards.

  • How do you change the size of display in Firefox, I get Hotmail too small and Flikr too big

    I get the font size too small on Hotmail when viewing through Firefox. The screen size and font size is too big when viewing Flickr through Firefox. I am sure it is a simple question of adjusting zoom and I have seen it change while I am online. I just can't work out what I did to change it.

  • Sim card too big for ipad air?

    i have taken delivery today of a new ipad air but even the mini simcard seems too big for the holder, is it safe to still put it in?

    No. The iPad Air uses a Nano Sim. A Mini sim will not fit in the tray.
    You need to talk to your Cellular carrier and have them give you a nano sim for the new iPad.

  • My iPad standard window is bit too big for the screen.

    My iPad screen unexpectedly got slightly too big for the display window. The size is bit too big. For example, the keyboard when it pops up does not fully display all tkey sans. Another example is the time/power remaining bar slips out of sight.  Did I accidentally change something?  Is this an issue with version of iOS that I am using (4.3.3)? (Note I'm not talking about resizing by using your fingers.)

    John,
    I am having the same problem.  The enlargement is not the same as the 3 finger tap or the 2 finger zoom.  The screen opens and then bumps to a slightly larger screen just enough to make it too big to see the outer edges.  You can put 3 fingers on the screen and move the screen to see the edges but you cannot get it to shrink to the correct size.  This is the second time this has happened to me.  I am also having some other issues.  Sometimes while in an app the app will close and I will be diverted to the home screen.  And sometimes when playing "with Friends games" the letters on the letterboard (not the key pad) disappear, will not move or are giant.  I plan on taking it back to the Apple store this week but I hate the idea of having to start over.

  • Video dl in iTunes too big for ipod screen?

    So I just downloaded the digital copy of Pineapple Express and I noticed that the video is 853 x 356 which is way too big. How do I get it down to 640 x 480.

    You could also use a third party application such as Handbrake to create an iPod compatible version. Check it out below. Hope this helps.

  • Purchased episodes of The Killing Season 2 and tried on both ipad and computer - ipad can't download (too big maybe) and computer (Numb) is missing and others are not in sync.  Downloaded most recent itunes.  Help please.

    Purchased the first four episodes of The Killing Season 2 and am so frustrated.  Tried downloading on both my computer and iPad.  Think they might be too big for iPad - says it's downloaded but can't open even though GB says there is enough.  Am missing episode (Numb) on my computer and the ones that I have downloade to computer are not in sync with sound.  Have downloaded newest version if iTunes.  Please help.

    Here's how to do it.
    1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
    2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
    3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts  and etc.

  • Firefox 22 and higher shows fonts too big or too small, sometimes on the same page. How to "fix" this annoying 'improvement"?

    Since the update *every* website displays with the fonts too big or too small. On many websites, some of the fonts are too big and some are too small *on the same page*
    This makes for a horrible browsing experience.
    I've tried setting the layout.css.PixelsPerPx to a value of 1, but all it does is make most websites fonts too small, while leaving some websites fonts too large, with many web pages having fonts simultaneously too large and too small.
    The old behavior was quite acceptable and I'd really like to restore the behavior to what it was. How can I do that? Or do i just switch to Chrome and be done with it?

    Did you even bother to read the question?
    "I've tried setting the layout.css.PixelsPerPx to a value of 1, but all it does is make most websites fonts too small, while leaving some websites fonts too large, with many web pages having fonts simultaneously too large and too small."
    This "fix" doesn't work. Hundreds of people are complaining about how their browser was broken by this "improvement". Why not address the real problem instead of telling users to apply a useless hack to fix a programming error?

  • Screen looks like it is too big to fit ipad 1

    Screen looks like it is too big to fit ipad 1. Can only see part of the perimeter, icons along edge are showing 20%. Running the latest software update, it has been sycned and rebooted. Whats next?

    It's in the General>Accessibility page in settings.  If on, you may have double-tapped with three fingers, as James suggests.  If you don't want this feature, turn it off.
