Loading POI's onto N95

Is it possible to put POI's onto the N95 for use with the GPS and Maps apps.
In particular is it possible to download speed camera sights and set a warning. If so, what is the best place to get these?

I haven't really had a chance to dig into this as much as I would like, but so far I've worked out the following. POIs don't seem to be supported, but there is the landmarks facility. Ideal would be to have some 3rd party program that uploaded POI data into the landmarks database, but without that then the only solution is direct into Landmarks using XML. The input supports multiple landmarks in a file, but I don't know if there is an upper limit. You would also need to write some code or macro to generate a suitable XML from one of the available POI files available.
OK, I was going to post the XML, but cannot because it throws a spanner in the forum, but you can find out how to do it just by creating a landmark and then sending it from your phone to your computer (eg MMS email), then just make multiple copies of the lm: landmark sections. You can delete the address section as that is not needed.

  • How do I load a playlist onto my 4th gen shuffle using itunes 11?

    I have a 4th generation shuffle, and just installed itunes 11.
    It's ludicrous that the shuffle doesn't allow you to reorder your music (or in my case audiobooks) manually, or even to resort by album/disc/track #. 
    Even so, at least in iTunes 10 you could easily load a playlist onto it. 
    WIth the new iTunes, that process has become less obvious.
    Is there a way to load a playlist onto the 4th generation shuffle using iTunes 11?  Alternatively, is there a way to reorder the music on the shuffle manually or by sorting in iTunes?  Is there some other trick to be able to list to my audiobook in order without renaming the 500 tracks it's divided into?
    Note to Apple: This really shouldn't be that hard.  

    The "easiest" way to do this is to enable voiceover & sync your ipod to whichever playlist you want.  When it's syncd, go to the summary tab & check Manually manage music, then apply & sync.  After ejecting the ipod, turn it on.  The songs will still be out of order, but press & hold the voiceover button.  First it'll say "all music", then when it says the name of your playlist, release the voiceover button & press play.  The songs should be in the order you want them to be.

  • ITunes no longer loads "checked" songs onto my iPhone 5.  It seem to be all or nothing or choose from the 4 categories.  What happened to "sync only checked songs?"

    In the case you aren't trolling, here's some alternative mapping services.
    Apple is constantly working on improving their new Maps service, but until it reaches the level of finesse necessary to be usable, take a look at some alternatives.
    If you would like to send a suggestion to Apple, please go to http://www.apple.com/feedback or you can Report a Problem via the Maps app by tapping the bottom right.
    Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.

  • I cannot load more photos onto my iPad as I'm being told there is not enough storage. I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud so how can I now load more photos onto my iPad. Surely there is enough space!  Do I need to delete previous photos?

    I cannot load more photos onto my iPad even though I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud. As I am on holidays and taking loads of photos I thought  a good plan was to load them onto my iPad and then regularly back them up to iCloud. If I do this, do I then delete those photos from the iPad that I have backed up to iCloud and if I delete them from the iPad are they gone forever or can I somehow get them back from iCloud? I'm only new at all of this so I hope someone can assist me. I'd hate to lose all of my photos(I know they are still on my memory stick) but I would like to have them safe and secure and able to retrieved whenever I wish.

    You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
    Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
    Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
    If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
    On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
    Tap iCloud.
    Tap Storage & Backup.
    Tap Manage Storage.
    In the Backups section, tap your device.
    In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
    To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.

  • I need to scan loads of photographs onto my mac, what is the best scanner to purchase?

    I need to scan loads of photographs onto my macbook, but need recommendation for brand/type of scanner to puchase that works well with apple

    Be sure to scan any black and white photos as color and not Grayscale.  iPhoto doesn't play well with the grayscale profile. 
    I've used Canon scanners for some time.  There are several good brands that you can choose from so check their specifications for those that will meet your technical requirements and price range.

  • I have a MS IBM laptop w/iTunes and music library.   I loaded 3300 songs onto

    Again,  I loaded 3000+ songs onto my new nano 8 months ago.  I now want to add more songs to the nano,  got them onto mt iTunes library,  but cannot remembers how to add the 'recently added' songs to the nano!,,,,,,, I feel so stupid.  Help!

    If they are all iTunes purchases, just redownload them from iTunes to your new computer.  However, even though you will then have two identical libraries, they are not the same library, and an iOS device can only be associated to a single iTunes library at a time.

  • Loading a Picture onto the Scene

    I am trying to load a picture onto the scene by using the
    following action script commands:
    on (release) {
    loadMovie("Kjole1.jpg", ramme);
    Nothing happens when the button is released, so it doesn't
    work.
    "Kjole1.jpg" is a picture file in the same directory. "ramme"
    is a squere on the scene converted to a movie clip symbol. When I
    check, I get the message "The script contains no errors", but
    nothing happens anyway.
    What is the problem?

    I just want to tell you it's working fine now!
    The problem was the instance name. Thanks again for your
    help!
    Anyway - I have just tried it in a simple sample file. I am
    going to try it on our main file now. There we have made a slide
    show of pictures scrolling down on the right side of the screen. We
    converted the slideshow to a movie clip. The pictures in the slide
    show, are also buttons. When you click on a button / small picture,
    a big sample of the picture should be loaded on the scene, that was
    when we needed the LoadMovie command. But when I tried to put
    action on the buttons, the action didn't act on the scene, but on
    edit level since the movie clip became kind of a nested symbol.
    Do we have to copy and paste the frames back to the scene and
    get rid of the movie clip symbol? Or are there any acton script
    command we could use to solve this problem?

  • Indesign CC, Trial version.  Problem with type loading EPUB3 ebook onto Apple's ibooks

    Hello.  Using the trial version of Indesign CC, my wife has created an EPUB3 picture ebook.  But on trying to load the ebook onto Apple's ibooks, the type is absent.  Could this be because it is only the trial version of Indesign and that once she has the full version this should work?  Are the Adobe trial versions different from the full versions?  Thanks for your help.  Jonathan.

    There is zero difference between the trial and paid version.
    We’ll need more details to help.

    I just bought a Mac Mini but I can't seem to load Office 2001 onto the computer.
    When I insert the installation disks the icons to install are "X"ed out on the CD. The was a trail version of the software on the computer but I already have the software. I tried to delete the trail version from the hard drive and then install the software but it still does not work.
    Any suggestion on loading the software???
