Question about trying to set up my iphone 4s

I just got my iphone 4s and I have a question about setting it up.
I don't want to screw things up, especially in terms of the ios 5 setup.
I'm not sure if the 4s comes with ios5 pre-installed.
I had an iphone 3g that was stolen a few months ago, so the last time I used itunes to synch the phone it was a 3g and whatever ios it was able to use, which wasn't even the latest ios 4, if I recall correctly.
So, when I first turn on the 4s and connect it to itunes, will I be able to simply load up my contacts, photos and music without itunes messing it up because it's a 4s rather than a 3g?
Can I treat it as a completely new phone in tunes and yet still be able to load up the contacts, photos and music that are backed up there, or would I need to re-do these things from scratch?
The contacts are minimal, so it's not a big problem to do that, and I only had a few photos and small music playlists, so these aren't a problem either.
But I don't want itunes to mess me up if I just connect the 4s to it, but if it doesn't have ios 5 loaded, then I do want to upgrade to that.
Thanks for any quick advice.

what do you mean, it died? plug it into the power! :-)

Where exactly did you get this message? Are you trying to set up iCloud, iTunes & App Stores, just an email account?

I was told I can set up my phone service through iTunes, but I can't seem to figure out where to go at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Question about SAP client setting when create new connection in CR2008

Dear All,
I have a question about SAP client setting in Crystal Report 2008 when I try to create a new connection use SAP OpenSQL(SAP Table,Cluster,or Function).
I have a SAP IDES environment with 5 clients.
While I try to create a CR standard report use SAP OpenSQL, I entered 800 into Client field in u201CUser logon credentialsu201D. The connection can be created and I can get table list. After I built a report ,I can not get data from IDES client 800, but I can get data from client 000.
I am sure client 800 has data.I checked client 800 table with Tcord se16.
I also did other tests and felt confused a lot.
Even inexistent client, such as u201C00u201Dand u201C8000u201D can be used for creating connection.
I just want to know how can I get data from client 800.
Thanks for your kindly help!
Wayne

Dear Ingo,
Thanks for your reply!
I am not sure about your suggestion clearly. What's your mean all the authorizations to use CR?
Maybe I should clarify my operations.
I logon CR2008 as administrator and created two SAP connections with different client.
There is a table named "/BEV3/CHBALLG" be showed in these connections.
I checked clients "000" and "800" both have data in the table.
I can use client 000 connection create report and get right data, but the report base on client 800 connection could not get data.
If change to another table,such as "/SAPDMC/LSOFIL", I can get data both form these connections.
I found one thing is very weird. Client "00" and "8000" do not exist in my IDES environment, but I can use them for creating connection.
May I have your further suggestions?
Wayne

I'm trying to set up my iphone 5s and it has been on the apple screen for hours with no improvement

I'm trying to set up my iphone 5s and it has been on the apple screen for hours with no improvement
I don't know how to restart it...I've tried everything and it won't move away from this screen. It's been plugged into my computer for a while now, and still does nothing.

You need to connect to the compuer via the lighting cable that came with it. IF that failes follow this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Question about trying to install an old program

I am trying to install music writing software from a CD. This software has worked well for me on XP and Windows 7. When I tried to run it from the disk, I got an error message. So, I went through the whole "compatibility mode" process, trying it
in both XP and Windows 7 modes, without success. The installation process would begin, but then it would hang up. The software in question is called "Mozart," and I am attempting to run an early version, Mozart 6. The website for the software is
mozart dot co dot uk.
Now, here's the rub: I posted a question about this at the Mozart Software Yahoo Group, and one participant there said that he had installed Mozart 6 on a Windows 8 computer without difficulty. So, the question becomes, what am I doing wrong? Or do I have
a hardware problem? I have a new Toshiba laptop with 6 gigs of ram. I have Avast anti-virus software as well as Spybot anti-spyware software - could one of those be blocking a program installation from the disk drive?

Did you try download the latest version or applied the latest service pack?
This software is not free, you can also contact them for better support
Also using 2 antivirus is not recommended. You also can try to disable them, disable UAC and disable firewall to check

Question about transferring data from 3GS to iPhone 5

I upgraded from 3GS to iPhone 5. Before reading any articles on transferring data through iTunes, I configured my 3 email programs, contacts and calendar (Google). The Apple instuctions state that I should backup 3GS FIRST, then restore to iPhone 5. Question is, if I do the backup and restore AFTER having configured my mail programs, will that cause problems, such as creating duplicate accounts and contacts? I am especially concerned about creating duplicates in my contact list, which would be a semi-horror if I had to delete every other one of over 1,700 names. Perhaps I should delete my email accounts and contact list BEFORE restoring to my iPhone 5, basically start from scratch?

When restoring the device, whatever is currently setup on the device is irrelevant. Everything currently setup on the device will be erased.

I have a question about a discrimination as user of iPhone

I am using an app named VoiP where you can sin up at the webpage www.internetcalls.com
I have used this service to make cheap calls from my iPhone since a long time and am quite pleased. However I received a mail with publicity of a new service named VoiPyo and the rates are much cheaper than the app I am using now.
It seems that it is the same company who lauched this new service which you can see on their website www.voipyo.com but it says that users of ios CAN NOT SIGN UP BUT MUST USE THE ANDREOID PHONE FROM A FRIEND
They use the same app from itunes store; both websites are the control of the same company and I feel very much frustrated that having an iPhone makes me pay more expensive rates. I assume this is not legal or should be looked into by apple.
I tried to contact apple directly but the contact information is so complicated that there is no option to report this.
Can anyone advise me what to do and how to inform apple
Thank you

Apple will not read nor respond to any posts here. These are user-to-user forums only. And as long as the app isn't deceptive in some way, which it doesn't seem to be that it is since you're not paying for something you can't use, there's almost certainly nothing Apple can or would do about it.
Again, take it up with the developers or find another service.
Regards.

Newbie question about C coding and SDK for iPhone app

Hello,
I am interested in trying to create an app. However, I have NO experience writing code I already have downloaded and installed the latest version of the SDK.
I know I have to learn: C, Objective C, and Cocoa.
I just picked up "C for Dummies" as a starting point. I figured the K&R might be a bit overwhelming to start with. Thing is, "C for Dummies" suggests doing some exercises in Text Edit and then using GCC to compile and test. But, then again, it has a copyright of 2004--long before Snow Leopard.
My question is, do I really need to do the exercises in Text Edit? Can I just use Xcode for entering the code and testing it? And, any suggestions for learning C and Xcode tutorials are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

But, I really want to learn coding and not just take the easy route by using Xcode.
The simplification of using Xcode may have been a bit exaggerated throughout this thread. You will still learn how to program full-on by using Xcode -- it's not like you're taking a shortcut or anything. Well, technically speaking, you are, but Xcode is the expected way to develop on a Mac nowadays -- it's how Apple expects you to develop and how most people are doing so. Should you choose, you can taking a deeper dive into the inner workings of compiling and whatnot by using a text editor and the Terminal, but keep in mind that the extra complexities here could complicate the more important overall goal of learning the basics of how to program. There is absolutely nothing wrong with simply using Xcode for the novice part of your programming days. In fact, it's probably the path I would recommend. Some here might suggest that it is beneficial to learn the intricacies of compiling through the Terminal and whatnot early on, and they are right -- it is beneficial, but the benefits of taking a route (at least for the time being) that allows you to focus on the more pressing issues of learning how to program without having to delve too deeply can be just as beneficial. After all, it's not like you can't go back and learn how to compile via Terminal later on -- that's what I've done (or, rather, am in the process of doing).
I always thought Terminal was something not to mess with.
Not so much. Like most things in programming (or life, for that matter), the Terminal is something not to mess with +if you don't know what you're doing+. Basically, it breaks down like this. The GUI that Apple has created for you in Mac OS X (by GUI I mean "graphical user interface" -- the icons and windows and buttons and so forth that you use to perform tasks on your Mac -- in other words, everything outside the Terminal) is geared toward the common user who does not need to access advance aspects of the system's functionality. Consequently, it makes common tasks much simpler to perform, but in the process it hides some of the deeper levels of the system's functionality from the user. This is a good thing, since most people wouldn't know what to do with this functionality and would create problems for themselves if they did have easy access to it. However, for some users who know more about the inner workings of the operating system, there needs to be a way for them to access this functionality, so that they can do certain things (like accessing certain files and performing certain tasks) that they would not be able to do using the Mac OS X GUI -- that's what the Terminal is for. It allows the user to operate the system on a lower level. In other words, it allows you to get closer to the operating system. This is good in a way, because it allows you to perform tasks that you wouldn't otherwise be able to perform by giving you more control over the operating system, but it is also bad in a way, because it can allow you to mess up some of the deeper aspects of your system if you don't know what you are doing. Most people leave the Terminal alone for this reason, and because they have no need of it, but if you want to be a good developer, you're going to have to work with it sooner or later.
Now, with all that being said, it's not that easy to mess things up using the Terminal. It's not like your system's going to crash if you misspell a command. All in all, the Terminal is very forgiving, but it will do what you tell it to do, even if you tell it to kill itself, and it is for that reason that you need to know what you are telling it before you try to tell it something. If you understand what you are telling the system, than operating on a lower level and being closer to the operating system is completely safe.
The Mac OS X operating system is based around Unix, so when you are communicating more directly with the operating system by using the Terminal, you are interacting with its Unix core. For this reason, using the Terminal goes hand in hand with understanding Unix. So, if you're going to want to use the Terminal, then I recommend you get a good book on Unix to teach you the basics of Unix commands and shell programming and whatnot. Any book on Unix will do, since more or less everything you learn will be applicable to the Mac OS X's Terminal, but there are a few that are specifically directed to Mac OS X users, and that always makes things easier. Most of these books aren't updated to cover past Tiger, but this really doesn't matter (someone correct me if I'm wrong). A few examples are O'Reilly's "Learning Unix for Mac OS X Tiger" by Dave Taylor or Peachpit Press's "Unix for Mac OS X Tiger" by Matisse Enzer. Also, the book "Unix Programming Environment" by Kernighan and Pike is an excellent book on Unix, although fairly outdated, so I would highly recommend it, although I would recommend it as a supplement to another, more recent, Mac-based Unix book and not as your primary source for learning Unix. The skills you will acquire from these books will help you later if not sooner, so I recommend giving one of them a read at some point, whether you are planning on compiling using the Terminal right now or not.
Anyways, I hope this helped to clear some of this up for you, and please let us know if you have any further questions.

Questions about slow motion recording on the iPhone 6 Plus

I took a couple of slo mo videos and they look cool, but there are a few things I don't understand.
The frame rate I took them at is 240 fps.
In an online article, I read the slow down speed is just 1/4th. But if the regular frame rate is 30 fps isn't the slow down 1/8th? I think that is true, because a video in the "recent" album says "8 seconds" but actually plays back at 64 seconds, which is 1/8th speed. And it's 64 seconds long after I upload it to YouTube.
One question is whether there is an easy way to see the actual playback time other than doing the math?
Another question is I understand there is supposed to be some way of editing the videos so you can adjust which parts are slowed down and which parts aren't. I can see how to trim, and I see the narrowly spaced bars (normal speed) and widely spaced bars (slow speed) but I don't see any way of adjusting those.
Any hints about this? Or other slo mo recording any editing hints?
Thanks,
doug

End result after talking with AppleCare.
1. Yes, if you record at 240 fps it is 1/8th speed.
2. There is no way in either Photos or iMovie on the iPhone to see the playback time! Just the time it took to record the video.
Doesn't it seem that people would want to know the playback time of a video?
I have submitted feedback.
I figured out how to edit the spacing of the real-time vs slo-mo portions. So that's no problem. But there is no way of knowing what the playback time is other than editing it on your computer or uploading it to YouTube or some place like that and see the result. Or manually timing it I guess.

Question about default wallpaper settings on new iPhone

The default wallpaper for the iPhone 3GS is planet Earth. I was wondering if the option for "camera roll" (to use as wallpaper) is there by default...or is it added there after you take your first photo or only after you use a photo as wallpaper the first time.
Strange question, I know.
Thanks

Page 142 of the user manual:
Wallpaper
You see a wallpaper background picture when you unlock iPhone. You can select one of the images that came with iPhone, or use a photo you’ve synced to iPhone from your computer.

Question about google search and icons on iphone interface icons.

Hey everyone. I noticed that I can look up images on google but nothing comes up when I do a web search on anything I got what I needed from yahoo but the page just stays blank on Google. I restarted my iphone with no luck. Has anybody else noticed this issue or is it a preferences setting? My second question is, can I get rid of things I don't want on my iphone interface like the weather or stocks programs (icons). Thanks for the help.
-Mike

Thanks for getting back to me. What I meant by my first question is, when I go into Safari and then select google in the bookmarks I can't get a result when I enter a key word in the search field on the Google page. I touch the search window and the keyboard pops up. I put in something I want to search for and nothing happens. Any ideas would be great.
Thanks.

Noob question about trying to duplicate rows in a table

Simplification of problem is I've got a table with user_id, name, year where user_id is pk. I would like to take all the rows that match year=2008 and insert them into the same table, but start the user_id at a certain number and set year=2009.
I know this doesn't work, but it's what I want to do in noob-code:
INSERT into TABLE (
user_id, name, year
) VALUES (
SELECT user_id_seq.nextval after starting at 3500, name, 2009 from same table doing insert to where year = 2008
I've contemplated using a temporary table, I've also seen mention of cursors, but don't quite understand what they are. I'm really, really new to Oracle and SQL in general, but am familiar with programming and shell scripts. I know more in depth searching might land me what I want, but I think my search syntax would be just as weak as my knowledge of the material. I'm just thinking this is something so basic and easy that my searches aren't using the right terms to catch a hit.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
You can INSERT all the results of a query by substituting the query where you otherwise would have "VALUES (list)".
For example:
INSERT into TABLE_X
       (user_id,              name, year)
SELECT user_id_seq.NEXTVAL, name, 2009
FROM    table_x
WHERE   year = 2008;This assumes that the sequence user_id_seq exists and is ready to issue the correct value. (It's unclear if that's part of the problem.)
Temporary tables and cursors (which are a way of getting query results in PL/SQL) are only useful for inserting in rare situations, where you have to do very odd, convoluted things. Think (at least) twice about how to do what you need to in SQL, and if you can't think of a way, then ask.
Yes, basic things often are hard to search for, especially if you don't know the right terms.
There are several good teach-yourself SQL books that explain this kind of thing. Getting one would be a good investment.
[All the Oracle manuals|http://www.oracle.com/pls/db111/portal.all_books] are on line. There's an example of this in the SQL Reference manual, under THE INSERT command.

Clarified usefulness of cursors. They have a lot of good, common functions, but helping with INSERTs is not one of them.
