Nokia X6 questions from an interested buyer

i am selling my Samsung Galaxy S as i am very disappointed with its poor battery life and various bugs that came along with it. even with Froyo 2.2 coming the only thing that would save its day would be an excellent battery life, a fully-optimised software with Google Android and a good network signal which in my case i don't have.
until i saw your Nokia X6 which might suits me as regards music is concerned. but i wanted to ask:
1.. does it have the ability to edit/make a playlist on-the-fly (without the use of a software)
2. does it have the ability to add songs to the playlist on-the-fly
4. can i customise the EQ settings on ALL or a particular song to my liking?
5. compared to a resistive screen how is the touchscreen? is it that responsive?
6. what would be the best way to update the software? over-the-air or thru the Ovi suite?
7. i'm a bit particular on a phone's software and firmware. is there a way to
know the phones software version? and
is there a way to find out what updates does the OS "provide" my phone? (i.e. OS details)
8. is the X6 BBC iplayer compatible?
9. is there a way to actually play divx or xvid (in avi or mkv containers) on the X6?
10. i've heard there is no "kinetic scrolling" ability on the main menu. only on sub menus and the music & video menus i think. is this true? if yes then can this be applied on the next software update?
11. is there a cover flow-esque style in the music menu / player?
the reason i will be buying the X6 is mainly for its music capability ( a dedicated audio chip, surround sound, etc.). the apps are secondary but would be very beneficial to me in many ways anyway....
please convince me that this is the phone for me...
thanks.

The Nokia X6 is a music phone. It comes in 3 different variants;
Nokia X6 32GB
Nokia X6 16GB
Nokia X6 8GB
The Nokia X6 32GB Comes With Unlimited Music License so you can download as many songs as you want for 1 year. To your questions here are the answers;
1
Yes
2
Yes
4
EQ settings is customizable, so this effects all the songs.
5
Touchscreen repsonse is fast but not fast as the HTC Legend, Galaxy S.
6
Over the air is safer than the OVI suite (which sometimes can lead to a dead phone).
7
If you press *#0000# it will show you the firmware on the X6. If you go here you can select the X6 and it will tell you the latest version and the improvements/fixes/updates.
8
Don't know.
9
Don't know.
10
kinetic scrolling is available on the main menu using either v20 or v21 firmware.
11
Nope there isn't any. It just plain. It does however display album art.
By the way the Nokia X6 has other settings for the music player such as:
- Loudness
- Stereo Widening
- Balance (L/R)
This phone is great for music needs and the bettery is top notch. The speakers are by far the best from any other Nokia phones and the audio quality is the best and better than 5800 (which I owned before).
1. are there any phones that is as good as the X6 when it comes to the audio specs?
Nokia X6 is the best music phone so far. Some say Nokia 5800 got better audio quality, it's either their def or something. Anyone advises you to get 5800 for audio quality is a just dreaming. Nokia X6 audio quality is better than 5800.
2. with the coming C-series (C7 & C6) would they be as good as the X-series? basing on the specs & features so far they seem to be marketed as smartphone or for business users and doesn't seem to be as a "dedicated" music phone.
The C6 and C7 are no good for music.

Questions from a Prospective Buyer Regarding Calendar and Contacts

Hi. I am interested in buying a new IPod Nano, largely for its Calendar and Contacts features. I am replacing a Palm PDA that I accidentally lost earlier this week.
I looked at some Nanos in the Apple Store near me but there were no calendar items or contact entries in any of the Nanos. I therefore have a few questions that weren't answered for me at the Apple Store.
Regarding syncing with Address Book and ICal:
1. If you have multiple Groups in Adress Book, will all the groups show up in the Nano? Or does the Nano lump all the contacts into one group?
2. Similarly, if you have multiple calendars in ICal, will all the calendars show up on the Nano as separate calendars?
3. Do all alarms set in ICal, for both calendar events and to-dos, show up in the Nano?
Lastly, a few questions about the calendar view in the Nano:
4. Does the Nano's monthly calendar view somehow indicate which days have events? I couldn't tell at the Apple Store because there were no events in the Nanos there.
5. In general, do people find the Nano's calendar view sufficient? From what I could tell, you can view a full monthly calendar and then click on a day to see that day's calendar items. But I couldn't tell if there was a larger day view. Also, it didn't seem to have a week view. So, I'm just looking for general opinions on the calendar's overall usability.
Thanks a lot in advance for all replies.
David

+1. If you have multiple Groups in Adress Book, will all the groups show up in the Nano? Or does the Nano lump all the contacts into one group?+
It's just one big group.
+2. Similarly, if you have multiple calendars in ICal, will all the calendars show up on the Nano as separate calendars?+
You can view as All or select on one Calendar. If you view as All you don't get to see which calendar an entry is for. It's just one big group.
+3. Do all alarms set in ICal, for both calendar events and to-dos, show up in the Nano?+
Not sure on this. I don't think it includes to-dos. Also the nano does not make much of a noise. It does have a full speaker on it. I don't hear the alarm on it.
+4. Does the Nano's monthly calendar view somehow indicate which days have events? I couldn't tell at the Apple Store because there were no events in the Nanos there.+
Yes, there will be a dot on a day with an entry.
+5. In general, do people find the Nano's calendar view sufficient? From what I could tell, you can view a full monthly calendar and then click on a day to see that day's calendar items. But I couldn't tell if there was a larger day view. Also, it didn't seem to have a week view. So, I'm just looking for general opinions on the calendar's overall usability.+
When selecting a day you get a list of the items for the day. You can then select one to see more details. There is no week view.
You do realise it is read only. You can't edit at all. If you are expecting alarms then you will be disappointed with the nano.
If you were relying on an iPod for calendars you would be better served by the iPod touch. The calendar on the nano is useful for seeing if you are doing something on a day, but not great for reminding you that you have something happening in a few minutes.

Questions from a prospective buyer regarding the Zen To

I have a few questions..
) Can you transfer music *to* and *from* your computer, or only *from* it, like the ipod?
2) What files can it store? That is to say, to what extent does it act like a hard dri've? Could I copy avi files onto it, and then copy them onto another hard dri've? How much freedom do you have in copying files?
Thank you for your time.

Hey,
You can transfer TO and FROM without any problems from the zen on ANY computer that has the software installed. There is basically a data foler and a music foler and you can store ANY type of file in the data folder and only the supported music types for playing on the Zen. I love my Zen, I hope you will get one and enjoy it for years!

Basic question from a new buyer

Hi everybody,
As a lifelong musician, I've used "Finale" in the past, to generate music based on musical notation as the input. From Apple's ads for Logic Express, it's not clear to me if music can be entered that way. (although it looks like it can be output that way) Can I write music using standard notation in Logic Express?
Thanks in advance.

I also am very comfortable working with notation. You may have figured it out by now, but below the Arrange area is the Editor window. One of the buttons is labeled "Score", and clicking that gives you a notation window. When that is open, a Part Box also opens on the left of the screen, and you can drag and drop items from there onto the score. There are also keyboard shortcuts, and it's worth digging around in the manual a little bit to find out about how to work in this editor. It's very versatile, and I use it all the time.
Happy writing!

Airport Extreme question from a possible buyer....

Hey all!
I was thinking about buying an Airport Extreme so I can wirelessly backup to my hard drive for my macbook. The price I can deal with, don't worry, but here is my question:
Can I use the Airport Extreme with my current router?
Currently, I am using a BT Home Hub (v1.0) with a belkin router (with the DHCP not set to give out ip addresses) which extends my network (perfectly) and gives out the same ip addresses the Home Hub does.
Can I replace the Belkin Router with an Airport Extreme? This is so I can extend the network and share my hard drive so that all mac users in my house can backup.
For this to work, I need to be able to disable DHCP on the Airport Extreme and insert my LAN ethernet cable into the WAN port (is that right??) and hopefully the Airport Extreme will send out the same network that the Home Hub does.
-- Can I do this? --
Reason I am asking is because I don't want to fork out loads of money on an Airport Extreme, only to find out it doesn't work and be really disappointed and have wasted £120!!
Thanks, James

Hi James,
I use a similar setup, usually without any problem. The last week has been a different story though, both in function and in Apple's responsiveness to problems. I would recommend reading the thread here before making the purchase. At the very least, it would be a good idea to wait until Apple acknowledges the problem and brings a fix forward.

Email question from a prospective buyer :)

Well I currently use the BB Curve and happy with it, to a point. I know I will sacrifice a few things to move but gain others, the #1 thing I need to know is email. As a sysadmin, the BB is amazing for email as they have their server poll the IMAP server, and based on filters either send to the phone or not. Based on those I can play ring tones (like alarms for server crashed, etc.)
My co-worker has an iPhone and says no you can't, but I am sure someone has written something like that or is there a different email client out there? I just need to know if I am home sleeping and something crashes, I will get some type of alert email which I don't think is a lot to ask? He said it has to do with apps dont run in the background, etc. so is he right? If so, I can't make that purchase
Tnx much as playing with this phone is really cool and I'm sold on it, but the fact remains (which seems odd) that I can't just be notified if I get a new message!

No, I have to look at my email all night long to see what automated server email is coming in.
I used to have a BB, but as a sys admin I only ever used it for email (and occasionally check my calendar). I don't use any of the email search feature or document editing features of the BB. I'm an admin, all I care about is the latest email.
The iPhone does do a good job with that (Exchange Active Sync). It will only alert you to new email in you inbox (same as OWA, since they use a similar architecture). You can still see all you email on the server, it's just the alerts are for inbox only.
The email alert tone is rather soft and canot be changed. That's why when I wake up during the night, I look over to see if there are any monitoring emails.
That being said, I am happy with the phone, despite some of the shortcomings. I turned in my BB back to corporate within one month of the iPhone supporting Exchange.
Hope this helps

Question from potential iphone buyer, no iPhone service at my home

I want to buy an iphone, but at&t doesn't work at all at my house. (it works great 3 blocks away). I'm afraid I'll miss important calls when I'm at home. I could have iphone forward calls to my house, but that involves the hassle of remember to forward and unforward whenever I get home or leave home. Also, there may be an extra charge for forwarding calls. I've thought about telling people in my outgoing message to try my home number if they get voicemail. Anyone have any other ideas?

I could have iphone forward calls to my house, but that involves the hassle of remember to forward and unforward whenever I get home or leave home
If you were to get an iPhone and use this strategy, bear in mind that you cannot switch call forwarding on or off if you are not in an AT&T service area - thus since you don't have service at home, you'd have to do it before you get home and after you leave home once in service coverage.
The reason is that these features are network based, not phone based, so if you aren't in a signal coverage area, the network won't know you've changed settings.

Why can't I post a question from my new system?

Hello All:
I was just trying to post a question from my new mbp but it wouldn't allow me to do anything. It continually gave me a message highlighted in 'red' that i was;t allowed to modify or post anything. I've been asking questions for quite a while and have never seen this. I also happen to have my older bmp, also logged onto the 'Apple Discussions' site, open beside me. Can anyone explain this to me please? BTW, my new system obviously has Yosemite on it while my older bmp has Lion. Thanks in advance, to all those who respond.

ChitlinsCC, I'm adding your reloaders to my article on how to make using ASC easier.
Here is my ASC work flow...
1) I login.
2) Block the automatic 30 minute logout.
     Unless you do something every thirty minutes you get logged out. The forum software waits to tell you this as long as it can to keep you in suspense ;-) . Filling out a reply is the exception to the thirty minute window.
        Start an auto reloader.
Safari = SafariTabReloader
Firefox = ReloadEvery: "Reload web pages automatically"
Others = Reloaders | Cerberus - Support Center
You need to pick a page that will reload over time without stalling out. It's ASC. I've found my profile display the best to use. I get my Profile page after some logins. It's ASC. Change rccharles to your apple id.
https://discussions.apple.com/people/rccharles?view=discussions
Reply technique
Open a new browser window. Pick some discussion. Open a reply window. As long as this reply window is open, you will stay logged in. The 30 minute times is reset as needed by the ASC software.
3) I open another window to do my normal ASC browsing.
4) I have a FireFox bookmark to goto the discussions that I have participated in. I've modified it to add on the content stuff.
         turingtest2 recommends. Change rccharles to your apple id:
https://discussions.apple.com/people/rccharles/content?filterID=participated~obj ecttype~objecttype%5Bthread%5D
5) Use turingtest2's generated links with the /content suffix as browser bookmark to the ASC discussions:
Site map of Communities and Categories
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2463
6) Adjust the ASC web page layout.
For FireFox
I run with Hiroto's modification to user content. This is the only way these forums are readable for me. How to adjust the format and layout of ASC Web Pages:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7501
For Safari
"ASCPowerTools is a Safari Extension designed to give more control"
http://www.etresoft.com/ascpowertools
7) Read and answer my old posts. I kind of memorize the time I last posted. ( It's way bad that apple eliminated the last poster to a thread. )
8) I use tabbed browsering. From a list of discussions, hold down the command key then click on the link. You get two tabs this way. The original window will keep where you have been.

HT201272 I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there are less movies available there than there are in my i-Tunes account. I've done some looking around at questions from others, but haven't found an answer that works for me.

I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there less movies available there than what is available in my i-Tunes library. I have 38 movies showing in my library but only 23 are showing in the Movies tab on the Apple TV. After researching this a little, there are only 23 movies showing under Purchased in the Quicklinks of my i-Tunes account. The majority of my collection are digital copy downloads that came from DVD purchases. Some of the missing movies were added in the past couple of months, the rest are a year-or-so old. I have done some looking around at questions from others, but I have not found an answer that will fix my situation. How do I update my library to get ALL of my movies to reflect that they were "Purchased"(as it says they were in their Properties)?

The pros and cons of to CC or not to CC have been done to death
Its a fact the CC model will work for some, especially newbies and small businesses.
The risks associated with the CC model have been well documented.
For long term users of CS perpetuals its generally a large hike up in cost compared to the upgrade system.
Then there are the....... Adobe can rot it hell...... group who will never subscribe
To each their own, you do the math to suit your cashflow whatever that is and then make an informed decision
To those on the CC model, I'd like to offer some practical advice.........do not allow automatic updates.........make regular backups............develop an exit strategy of alternatives for when you can no longer afford the subscription costs............never ever assume that the Adobe update is bug free
Enjoy your cloud

Thank you for that post, and the advice. I just happen to be one of those who it does work for. I've been around long enough to know that CC isn't going to work for everyone(the large publishing/radio/web company I work for isn't upgrading to CC because of the costs involved). But it does for me as I potentially venture out into the full-time freelancing world and away from the more structured big office environment. I can't make decisions based on what is best for anyone else, or what will hurt or help Adobe. Just what affects me, and that's all.

Need recommend to build MB + CPU + VGA ....a question from Vietnam

1st, sry my E is not good...
My job is working with 60% Pr 40% Ae (full HD)
I need recommend to help me choose 3 option
CPU + MB (in VN they same price)
1.   i7 950 + X58
2.   i7 2600 + p8z68
3.   2xE5520 + asus Z8NA (2nd)
VGA (in VN they same price)
1.   GTX 570
2.   Nivida Quadro 1800 (because quadro 2000,3800,4800.. all supported is very difficult to buy it in VN) Quadro1800 can be GPU hacked ? (2nd)
My PSU 750W
RAM DDR3 Gskill buss 1333 4x4gb
a question from Vietnam, need to help so much
Thanks alot
Waitting for Harm recommend

I concur with Harm's recommendation. The Quadro 1800 is obsolete: It is based on the equally-obsolete GeForce 9600 GT but with only a 192-bit memory bus instead of a 256-bit memory bus. As such, the only memory configuration that was available on the Quadro 1800 was 768MB. Unfortunately, Premiere Pro CS5 requires a minimum of 765MB of free, unused graphics memory just to even enable GPU accelerated mode at all even with the hack. But since Windows itself eats up some of that 768MB, you'd be left with less than 750MB of free, unused graphics RAM with that Quadro 1800. As a result, Premiere Pro CS5 will be stuck in software-only mode even with the hack if you have the Quadro 1800 as the primary card.
