Location Reminders, how to

How do I get reminder locations to work? I have two location reminders one for leaving and one for arriving, none of them have worked yet. Background app refresh in settings has no reminder icon to toggle on or off but my Location triangle is on. What can I do?

Two things to try:
Check Settings > Privacy > Location Services and make sure "Reminders" is "On"
In Reminders, referring to the first screen shot you posted, click "Edit" in the upper right, then click the "i" in the circle at the right of a reminder. Make sure the geofence is set correctly around your home in your reminder.

Get Siri to set location reminders (using multiple reminder lists)

I found a way to get Siri to set location reminders using multiple reminder lists (but you can just use one list too):
First make additional lists in the reminder app: click list button (the lines on the left) > edit > create new list > done. Make as many as you want. I have grocery, home, personal, business, family.
Let's say you want a reminder to pick up apples when you get to the apple store. You must add the location in your contacts to your name in contacts.
Do the following:
In maps app find the location with search.
Tap the blue arrow > Add to contacts > Add to existing contact
Choose your name in contacts. It will be added under your address for home or work so you will need to edit it:
Click Edit.
Click on the small label on the left of the new address - it will just say "address"
Scroll to bottom of page and click on Create custom label
Enter the location name like "Apple Store". Click Done.
Important Note: You will need to delete the url it adds under your home url section and maybe other things it messes up with the new contact info instead of yours - so check all the fields each time you do this.
To make a location based reminder using a specific list you must open that list yourself - Siri will not open it for you.
Example:
Open grocery list yourself in the reminders app
Tell Siri something like: "remind me to pick up apples" (Do not mention the location yet - if you do it will not work)
Siri will ask: "When should I remind you?"
Say: "When I get to the apple store"
Siri will say she will remind you and you will see the location reminder in the grocery list.
This is how it works for me but if you know an easier way let me know! This is beta so I'm sure it will get easier.

I have one thing to add. You don't have to open the list manually. Tell Siri: "Add to my <listname> list". For example, if you have a list named "Work", tell Siri: "Add to my work list". Siri will reply, "What should I add to your 'Personal' list?
and you can continue from there.
There is a syntax for doing all this in one sentence, but I find it only works about half the time. Too many fields for Siri to parse in her current Beta stage

I can't set location reminders on my iphone, it says "Your calendar service, which keeps track of your reminders, doesn't allow location-based reminders"

"Your calendar service, which keeps track of your reminders, doesn't allow location-based reminders"
How do i fix this? my reminders location is on, but still cant do it....

Solution.
Since the change from google maps to apple maps. It is now necessary to go to your details in contacts, select your home address, maps appear now select by tapping on a road next to your home, a new pin appears saying dropped pin, click the arrow then add to contacts, add to existing, select yourself, then edit, delete the old home address then change the new one to read home. Do for other stored addresses. Works just fine now with siri

If you are missing using google maps - try the Nokia map app called "here"

This is the Photoshop Elements forum, not the Premiere Elements forum, located here:

When you open the project, it should ask you where the first file is located. After you tell it where it is, it should be able to find the rest of them if they are located near the first one. Then save the file. If you move the files again, you will have to relink them again.

I am trying to reinstall my epson printer driver after reinstalling my operating system. The download will not complete and I get this message that the download cannot be saved because of an "unknown error," and to try to save the download in another location. How do I find another location?

Hi, clintonfrombirmingham: I wanted to thank you for jumping in and attempting to help me. I went back to the apple store yesterday and the space issue was caused by a setting from five years ago that was saving all mail in the hard drive in the apple mail application. Once all of that mail was deleted and the setting changed I was able to reinstall the printer driver and other things that would not function properly. Now my only issue is that the printer will not connect wirelesslessly. But I'm going to work on that at another time.

As long as you enabled it when you first activated your Iphone, it's pretty straightforward. Using any computer, go to icloud.com. Sign in with your Apple ID. A screen will come up with a map showing the general location of your phone. If you have a friend with an iphone and are logged in using Safari, when you get close, you can tell your iphone to make a sound. Good luck.

Where to locate and how to use the filter thershould to binarized image

Good morning friends. I am using
Labview with VDM and let me know where to locate and how to use the
filter thershould. Also that parameters used to binarized image captured
via webcam and display it in black and white.
Thank you very
much.

Is the image that you are getting a RGB one? Use color plane extraction and then use a binary threshold to convert it into a binary image. You can also directly use a color threshold and convert a rgb (color) image to a binary image.

My iTunes says there are 17 songs it cannot locate. How do I locate which songs these are without clicking on each song in my whole library?

My iTunes says there are 17 songs it cannot locate. How do I locate which songs these are without clicking on each song in my whole library?

To locate all of the broken links in your library try:
Lost & Found Playlists
Create a regular playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist (it may take some time to count the tracks that are to be dropped). Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist. They can be deleted with Ctrl+A to select them and then Shift+Delete to discard them.
The exercise can be repeated with different media sources if needed.
Or try iTunes Folder Watch with its option to check for dead tracks on startup.

Location reminders not working..?

Does anyone knows what is happening with location reminders in iOS7?
As soon as you close the reminders app it just won't work...

In iOS7, location-based reminders won't fire if the Reminders app is explicitly terminated by the user.
That is if the user removes an application from the Multi-Tasking application list (brought up with a double-press of the Home button), iOS 7 will conclude that the user doesn't want this app to get any more run-time. That implies that Reminders won't be launched again to display your location-based reminders.
The following is generally a good starting point to verify that Reminders will be able to fire location-based reminders:
Settings > Privacy > Location Services
Verify that the toggle for Reminders is ON and that a purple hollow location arrow is displayed next to it.
This arrow may be solid if Reminders was provided the device's location within the last minute.
Give a minute or so to this arow to give you the current location access status of this app.
If the toggle is ON but you don't see the purple hollow location arrow next to it after one minute:
- Verify that the following is ON for Reminders:
Settings > General > Background App Refresh
- Launch Reminders and keep it in the background by pressing the Home button.

Location reminders with siri in the UK

I have been trying to get location reminders to work via Siri. I have set up my home location via my contact information and via the map as the advice on this states but it is not workiing. I tried various things to get it to work but nothing worked so I made an appointment for the Genius Bar at Regent Street, I was told that location based reminders via Siri do not work in the UK.
I could not find any information on line that stated it didnt work in the UK and today I received further information from someone else at Apple that location reminders via Siri should work. One thing I did notice is that when I ask Siri to create a reminder it does this as a task, I was told at the Genius Bar that this is due to it not working in the UK.
Does anyone have any firm information or advice on this as currently Apple are telling me different things?

Welcome to Apple forums
We don't know when Apple will implement this in Siri, so wait at least to iOS 6

FCP X version 10.1.1. When Sharing to DVD I get the following alert " There was an error burning your discd. Not enough Disk Space in Target Folder" I have 700GB   free. Where is this target folder located? how can I fix this problem? not space prob

Sharing to DVD I get the following alert " There was an error burning your disc. Not enough Disk Space in Target Folder" I have 700GB   free. Where is this target folder located? How can I fix this problem? This is definitely not a space problem.
Since starting with FCP X, there has been tons of issues, now that the product actually works with the exception above, makes it impossible to share the production. Has Apple fixed this problem. is there a knowledge base article on this?
On another note, One reason I have not purchased support on FCP X is because you sold a product that never worked for almost an entire year or more.   Now I can finally finish my project, I cannot share it.....Really. This has to be fixed now, I am loosing money as I typed this.

Just curious, why would repairing permissions, rebooting ( rebooted 2 times already today) or creating a new user possibly fix this.
I cannot create a new user, that is way too much work. I will repair permissions again, I repaired permissions just a few days ago. Then I will reboot, login and turn off App Nap and rerun the Share DVD.
There must be something seriously wrong with the OS if your are suggesting creating another user.   WOW!

Location Reminders at Wrong Time/Place

Location reminders worked great until a few months ago. Not sure if it was the iOS8 update or what, but it has issues now.
I use "Reminders" on iOS8 to remind me at my work. A lot of the time they don't go off when I get there, and pop up hours later when I am at my apartment. It happens all the time and basically makes this once cherished feature useless.
I recently purchased another location reminder app called "Checkmark" (I think its called). It has the exact same issue.
I also noticed that sometimes they go off immediately after I change my wifi settings at my apartment, though a lot of the time they just go off randomly.
I believe I am on iOS 8.1

Here's the rev level info:
Patch: 116577-16 Obsoletes: 117706-08 Requires: Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWics5, SUNWica5

Patch: 121657-19 Obsoletes: 117706-08, 116577-43 Requires: Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWics5, SUNWica5
And yes, this problem occurs for existing and newly created events:
Summary: Testing
Start: Thursday, March 13, 2008 8:30:00 AM CST
End: Thursday, March 13, 2008 9:30:00 AM CST
The above reminder was for an event scheduled at 9:30am. The event in the calendar is at the correct time.
During the previous time changes, this worked fine. However, note that the upgrade was done in December.
Thanks,
Roger S.
