New Apple Earpods are very nice

I have to say these new earpods are very nice. The sound is great and the fit is very comfortable.
I have Bose earbuds for my iPod Nano (Gen 7) and Apple's earpods are brighter in sound with adequate bass. The Bose earbuds have a little more bass with the Nano. The earpods sound really nice with my Macbook Pro Retina and iPhone 4. I don't use the EQ with any of my devices.

Hello Keg55,
I have a Macbook Pro (early 2011) and was really wondering if these new Apple EarPods are compatible with the Macbook Pro series. When I am asking that question I am thinking of the microphone on the cord, is it recognized by the Macbook Pro?
My Macbook Pro doesn't have a dedicated mini-jack connection for mics so that would be really helpfull. My guess is that it is, as the previous version of iPhone headsets worked like a charm. I know you can't answer for my specific Macbook Pro as you have the one with retina display. So my question really is;
Is the included mic recongnized by your Macbook Pro Retina?

    Exposure to liquid  Apple Watch is water resistant but not waterproof. You may, for example, wear and use Apple Watch during exercise (exposure to sweat is OK), in the rain, and while washing your hands. If water splashes on to the watch, wipe it off with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. Try to minimize exposing Apple Watch to these substances and follow the instructions below in the “Cleaning and care” section if Apple Watch comes into contact with them:
    Soap, detergent, acids or acidic foods, and any liquids other than fresh water, such as salt water, soapy water, pool water, perfume, insect repellent, lotions, sunscreen, oil, adhesive remover, hair dye, or solvents.
    Submerging Apple Watch is not recommended. Apple Watch has a water resistance rating of IPX7 under IEC standard 60529. The leather bands are not water resistant. Water resistance is not a permanent condition and Apple Watch cannot be rechecked or resealed for water resistance. The following may affect the water resistance of Apple Watch and should be avoided:
    Dropping Apple Watch or subjecting it to other impacts.
    Submerging Apple Watch in water for long periods of time.
    Swimming or bathing with Apple Watch.
    Exposing Apple Watch to pressurized water or high velocity water, for example, showering, water skiing, wake boarding, surfing, jet skiing, and so on.
    Wearing Apple Watch in the sauna or steam room.

  • Why does apple remove screen recorders? they are very nice D:

    how come apple removes screen recoders but andriod doesnt?? well i already got one but i know why they remove emutalotrs due to pricray but why screen recoders? i saw one in the app store called Cloud Player made by the same creators of Display Recorder but is  was for ios 7 and i was gonna get it when i got my new ipod for christmas (which will support IOS 7) and now it been removed now

    Apple has not said why and it is against the terms of use of this forum to speculate on Apple decisions

  • Is the wait for a second iPad mini worth it? And just curious, most new apple devices are priced at the previous models price, correct?

    I'm not trying to speculate, but most new devices are priced at thee previous models original price? Correct me if I'm wrong please.
    Thanks!

    Since nothing in terms of a new mini has been announced, there would be no way anyone could answer that question. As for pricing, in the recent past that has tended to be the pattern, but again, could easily change.
    And there is no way to answer the question that does not involve speculation.

  • How durable are the Apple EarPods?

    Hi,
    I was wondering how durable the apple EarPods are to being broken.
    When I. Say broken I mean how vulnerable are the speakers to being blown?
    I like my music loud and so not want to destroy these headphones.
    Thanks in advance,
    -Ebony

    they are more a product that they include to include it
    if they didn't make iphones they would not make the headsets
    and people without iphones never buy the headsets even though they works apart from the button and mic part
    read a review that said the new type was much better then the old type but still garbage if I agree I donno
    but still have my first ipod touch 1g headset and it will works

  • New e-mail address, so created new apple id, iTunes store asks for password for old e-mail/apple id

    There are lots of posts on this subject over the years about this problem but none of the solutions work for me.
    Apple id problems go back many years, if they cant handle that, how do we trust them in security issues?
    anyway, here is what it says.
    Sign into iTunes store
    Enter the Apple ID password for
    "old e-mail address"
    So I enter the password (same one as before, it works in Mail etc on the iPad, only a problem on iTunes store.
    App updates would not work, but they finally did when I did a iPad reset and backup restore.
    But the iTunes store apple id problem is still there.
    I am a user of Apple since 1982, do not like where things are going, honestly, but they are the only game in town. Not a fan of overly automated system processes with no feeling of "transparency" in the way things happen these days. 
    Can anyone help?  If not I will live with it, but..........this is not the old Apple any more.

    It may not be called Express lane any longer, but this is where you find it now: https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
    On your old email - Apple does not assume an email will not change. This is why they provide for recovery if you no longer have access to the email. In order for that to work however, you needed to have followed their recommendation and set up your security questions and/or provided a secondary email address. If you not longer have access, they you can try calling Apple and asking for the Account Security Team. If you can convince them you are who you say you are, they may be able to help reset your password.
    Are you saying iTunes on your computer is updating all Apps? If so, I don't understand how. Apps purchased on your old Apple ID are able to be updated only using the Apple ID used to purchase or download them. If what you ar esaying is true, I suspect only thos apps tied to your new Apple ID are being checked and updated. If it is happening as you describe, your iPad is the one behaving as it should, not iTunes on your computer.
    Please do not take offence to this but it still seems as if you don't understand how the Apple ID works, not just that you don't agree with it. I've refined my analogy a bit, so please bear with me. I am not trying to be condesending but I HAVE tried to made it as simple as possible for anyone else that may read this.
    Imagine you buy a house. You have keys to the house and once inside, you buy all the funrniture you need - with one condition - because of some complicated distribution agreements with the furniture manufacturers, the seller mandates that the furniture you buy must be used only in that house.
    Some day in the future, you lose the keys to your house so you buy the house next door with its own new set of keys. You go inside the new house and wonder where all your furniture has gone. Simply, you own both houses but
    Upset at this situation, you try to recover your keys to your first house by asking the bank to mail them. You once had the chance to give the bank an alternate address to which they could mail keys but didn't so not they can only mail them to the first house. Since you can't get inside, you cannot retrieve the new keys that they send.
    After getting some good advice, you decide to talk to visit the bank personally. You convince them you are the owner of house #1 and they give you a new set of keys. Yay!
    You go back to house #1 and finally manage to get in. But, since house #2 is newer, you decide to live there. Now you want to move your furniture so you have a comfortable place to sit and sleep. Oops, you can't take the furniture from the old house because of your agreement with the Furniture seller so you have to buy new furniture.
    House = Apple ID
    Keys = Password
    Furniture = Apps and other content purchased with the first Apple ID
    Keys = Password
    Alternate Address = Alternate Email Address
    Furniture Seller = Apple
    Furniture Makers = App Developers, Film and Music Rights Holders
    You may not agree with this, but the fact is, Apple owns very little of the content they sell - basically only their own apps and iOS itself. Allowing merging of Apple IDs or transfering ownership of Apps from one Apple ID to another is a logistical nightmare and would create major issues with app developers, music and film rights holders and anyone else who provides content for sale through iTunes or the App Store.
    You cannot compare a functioning iCloud with non-functioning iTunes and App Stores. iCloud doesn't care about your apps - it's about syncing and identification (iMessage, Facetime, iCloud services like Find My iDevice) only. So long as you are using the same Apple ID on each device, it will sync between them any supported content you decide. In fact you can use a different Apple ID for all there if you wanted. The key is to be CONSISTENT.
    One additional thing we have not brought up already. If the iPad was activated with your original Apple ID and you ever need to restore it (not an uncommon possibility), you will run into a problem with Activation Lock. It's a security feature designed to discourage iDevice theft by rendering it useless if one tries to activate it using anything other than the Apple ID used to activate it originally.
    Again, you may not agree with how it works, but I hope this finally makes sense and you at least understand how it works.
