Quick question about the FM Radio in the iPod Nano

Can I listen to stations not in my geographical region? For example, can I listen to LBC outside of London?

With FM radio, You can not reach the stations that don't broadcast in your region. But you can listen to them online (if they broadcast tha station online), by computer or some apps on cell phone.

Questions about the ipod camera connector...

Hi,
i got some questions about the ipod camera connector.
1)Is the camera connector compatible with the Sony camera DSC-P93A ?
In fact, this camera got PTP protocol.
PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) Oui
Marque PIM (Print Image Matching) Oui
PictBridge™ Oui
So, do the camera need to have the three following protocols to be compatible with the camera connector ?
=>Mass Storage, PTP, and Type 4
Or maybe does it need only one of it??
2) Is it compatible with a USB memory card reader?
Thank you

Wel, if i've right understood what you said, my camera is compatible because it got PTP protocol ?
That's weird, cause i wrote a mail to sony to ask them about the compatibility of my camera, but they answered that it wasn't. But of course, i'll prefer to believe you than them !

I heard about the iPod Nano recall over fire risk, I entered my info online a in said that I was eligible, but since early December I have not heard anything more from. In which time someone I know has sent off theirs and received their replacement nano?

I heard about the iPod Nano recall over fire risk, I entered my info online and it said that I was eligible, but since early December I have not heard anything more from itunes/apple. In which time someone I know has sent off theirs and received their replacement nano already. Is there an email address I can email to request info? Would be much appreciated! Thank-you.

use the info you got in the email and check your repair status on apple's website

I am from Germany. I have a Question to the iPod nano 1st gen replacement program: Can I upgrade to Ipod touch 8GB? The new Ipod nano Generation is too smal for my hands

Hello! Not a problem, because you will get a Ipod Nano 1st generation as a replacement, not a new / latest generation.

Question about the "iPod radio remote"

I assume the "radio remote" is the same for every country and is under software control. I want to buy in Canada but use in UK and Canada.
Has anyone got one and seen the RDS work, in the UK almost every FM channel is RDS. Do they have RDS in Canada (Toronto) can anyone confirm?
And of course it says FM so this again I assume no AM, not that I need AM it was just an interest in if it could do it.
What happens about headphones, you can plug a pair into the remote, can you still plug into the bottom of the iPod or does the remote connector get in the way.
What is the story with "line out" I use this all the time as I amp my headphones. So I assume you cant use line out? or is the remote a line out also.
And I assume the remote cable and you headphones act as the aerial, how is the quality? Is it any good indoors, some little FM radios I have used drop to mono indoors. Does this Apple one frop to mono if the signal is weak?
Someone that has one can perhaps answer
Cheers

I can at least answer some of the questions.
The RDS function on this radio/remote is poor in the
UK. You have to set the radio function on the iPod
to "Europe" and when you do this RDS info is not
displayed on almost all radio stations such as
Virgin, XFM, Capital, GLR, etc. It does display on
Radio 2 however. At least, this is my finding. So
it's unpredictable at best. Setting the radio to
"USA" on the iPod increases the likelihood of getting
the RDS to display, but the downside is that you can
then only tune the radio in increments of 2mhz which
is a bit awkward if your looking for 89.1mhz!
There are three settings for the radio which you
choose via the iPod. They are USA/Europe/Japan. No
setting for Canada, although I'm sure you will still
be able to use it over there as I can still use mine
here in the UK even if it's set to USA.
No, there is no AM radio.
You can plug headphones into the remote or the
headphone jack on the iPod, or both at the same time.
I'm not sure I understand your question about the
bottom of the iPod. The radio plugs into the iPod
via the dock connector.
There is no 'line out' on the iPod. If you mean the
one on the dock, then no you can't use it as you
cannot place the iPod into the dock whilst the
radio/remote is connected as they use the same
connector.
Yes the cable of the remote acts as the aerial.
Reception is surprisingly good where I am, but it
will of course depend on where you use it. I've
used it indoors without any drop in signal or it
dropping to mono.
Lastly, you need to update the software for both the
nano or the 5th generation for the radio to work
(after you do this a radio function appears in the
menu), and some users have found that doing this
screws up the iPod. I have mine working on both the
nano and the 5th gen without any problems.
There is a review of the radio/remote here. I like
mine and consider it a worthwhile accessory, but of
course there will be those who disagree.
iPod
Radio/Remote Review.
Thank you for the reply.
Think your right USA or Europe will work in Canada.
Yes I mean the line out via the dock, I just wondered if the remote become a line out socket (I also use a pocket dock for line out for headphone amp as I use a pair of Sennheiser HD600 with my ipod) but of course that is silly becasue you have a volume control on the remote and line out is normaly fixed.
Based on your views I shall get one in March when in Toronto

Help. about the ipod nano charged with usb 1.1

i just got the ipod nano. now i am charging it. according to the mannul, it will take 3hr to charge it by usb 2.0.
considering i only have usb 1.1, so my question is how long it wil take to charge the nano. until i wait for 6hr and the screen still shows do not disconnect. i can transfer the music and image to the nano. thanks.

Sorry, I'm not really sure how long the charge will take with USB 1.1, but I'd guess it would be way longer that "twice as long".
The "do not disconnect" will show as the display until you eject the iPod thru iTunes.
Now here the tricky part since I don't have a 1.1 USB. If you eject it thru iTunes, I believe the screen will show if it is still charging or "charged". So when you know you need to charge it, plug in to the `puter, then eject and leave it connected, to see what happens.
I do recommend getting the USB power adapter. For USD30.00, it is really worth it. Well, for me at least. I charge regularly (4 times a week) and only plug into my computer to add more music (maybe once a month). Your usage may be different, but it is so easy to come home and just plug it into the dock (plugged into the wall).

Quick Questions about the New T530

With the T530 finally showing up online for those of us in the U.S., I have thrown it into the pool of models I am considering and comparing it to the T520, but it is getting very hard to find information about it. Here are my top questions about it that I can not find answer to.
#1: Can the backlight on the keyboard (if you choose to get one with it) be toggled? If so, would it be through bios, a key combo, or software?
#2: Will accessories for the T520 be compatible with the T530? Including the 9-cell and the slice?
#3: Because this is a new item, and there might be high demand, is there a possibility of shipments bottlenecking? I.E.: if I buy one right now, will my order get postponed multiple times and take months?
Sorry if these answers have already been answered elsewhere, but I really did try (used Google and the forum search) to find the answers before posting. Plus, I'm sure there are a few people like me trying to decide between the T520 and Ivy-equipped T530, so maybe this thread will help them too.

joshua144,
This is a bit outside my area of expertise, but I don't think the slice battery from T420/T520/W520 generation will work on the new systems like T430/T530/W530 which require battery authentication.
Check the tabook http://www.lenovo.com/psref/pdf/tabook.pdf to know which battery options are supported on which systems. And note that the slice battery option for T520 is different than the slice battery option for T530.
Just because the 28++ battery (from your link) is backwards-compatible with the older systems, does not mean the older batteries like 27++ are forward-compatible with the new systems.
As for your other question about FN and CTRL, the FN button is still on the outside of the keyboard just like ThinkPad has always been. And there is still the BIOS option to swap CTRL and FN.

3 Questions about the iPod.

If my work gave me a 30gb iPod video, does it have the one year warranty? and will it work if I purchase the Apple Protection plan for it (2 years)? If it worked, do I send it report for service and send it directly to Apple (after they send the package to put it in)?
Also, when I am listening to some songs, when it is aobut 3/4 done, it skips to the very end then freezes, then waits about a minute then plays the next song, and it will happen over and over. - It does this on the same songs over and over.
Also, some of my songs on iTunes are in the correct order (track number, album number, etc.), and they are out of order on my iPod. How can I fix this error?
My main question is the first one, but since I was asking questions, I went ahead and asked the other two questions also.
Thanks for your help!

A Fifth Generation iPod refers to the 30GB, 60GB or 80GB iPod with video.
1. If your current MP3s were not purchased from some other online store and are not copy protected they'll work with your iPod
2. Around 2000 depending on song length and file format. The advertised song capacity of iPod is based on 4 minute songs encoded in AAC (MP4)format at a bit rate of 128 kbps. Longer songs and songs encoded at a higher bitrate or in uncompressed formats take up more space. You'll get a similar number if you MP3 are that bit rate or lower, the figures are pretty approximate.
3. You won't be able to use Firewire to update, only to charge. USB 1.1 will be signigicantly slower that USB 2 but if you can live with that should work ok.

General Questions about the iPod Touch

Hello,
I'm considering buying a new iPod touch after the Keynote Yesterday. I have a few questions though that I'm on the fence about:
1. Does the iPod Touch Mail Client Sync with the OSX Mail Client. Does it sync in Tiger? Does it sync in Leopard? Or does it only sync via .Mac
2. Does the Calendar Program allow you to create new events on the calendar like an iPhone, or can you only view existing events like on the iPod. What about the Address Book?
3. When the Wifi is not connected can you view your email messages?
4. When the SDK kit is released in February, will I be able to purchase developer's apps for the iPod Touch, or will they be exclusive to the iPhone?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

1. The mail client works with POP or IMAP, it does not "sync" with the OSX Mail app that I am aware of however if you are using OSX Mail to access a POP or IMAP account they can be configured to work together.
2. You can add events to the calendar as well as contacts to the address book directly
3. You can view emails w/o WiFi if you have configured Mail to do so
4. I don't have an official answer for this one, but I would assume the answer is yes.
Hope that helps, all of this information is avaliable on the iPod Touch product pages.

A few questions about the iPod Touch

Okay so I'm thinking about getting one of these because friends have recommended them and I have the money. First off I bought a 2nd gen ipod nano off ebay a couple of months ago but lost everything on my pc so I'll have to replace all of the songs before I can sync it. Does this happen with the ipod touch? Or are they actually stored on it? Also, what are the best features of the ipod touch over the nano? And is it really worth it? Another friend has an iphone and said I should touches are crap and I should get an iphone because they're so much better, but they cost like 3x more than touches. Why are iphones so much better? Help is appreciated.

Does what happen?
Are you blaming the loss of files on your PC on the iPod? You should always backup your PC's files whether or not you have an iPod.
vedderfan94 wrote:

Of course the songs are actually stored on the iPod, how else would you be able to carry them around with you and play music?
vedderfan94 wrote:

Touch screen and apps.

Your call.

The Touch does not contain a cell phone, camera, GPS, or compass but otherwise essentially the same as an iPhone and running the same O/S.

A quick question about the htmldb_item.checkbox function

I know many posts about checkbox have been posted, yet I couldn't find the answer after some searches.
I have something like:
select
htmldb_item.checkbox(1, col_name)
from...
What I need is to have is the the heading of the checkbox column same as what the wizard does. I mean you can 'check all' with that. If I put a string after the right parentheses, I got that string rendered as the name of the checkbox column, which was not I want.
I couldn't find the answer from the document, neither from the how-to.
Thanks in advance.

I couldn't find the answer from the document, neither
from the how-to.Do you want a checkbox as the header for the checkbox column? So you can check/uncheck all the checkboxes? If so, this is addressed directly in the how-to.
If this is not what you want I don't understand exactly what it is that you're attempting. Perhaps some elucidation would be in order?

Two quick questions about the project and timing panes

1) Is there a hotkey for toggling between the project and timing panes?
I can't seem to find this anywhere. I know F5 and F6 open and close them, but I'd like to be able to simply activate then without having to click on them. I'd like to be able to simply toggle between them and navigate using the arrow keys
2) Is there a way to lock together the project and timing views so that when you open a group in one that group is also opened in the other?

Sure, play/stop SHOULD work, but it doesn't always. And the up/down arrows only work to move layers in some instances. Try this. In a normal project, select a layer in either the layers pane or the canvas. Use the up/down arrows and you'll find Motion cycles between layers. Now close the layers pane (F5) and open it again. Now try to use the up/down arrows. It no longer cycles on my machine (and probably yours).
In fact, Motion 4 broke a LOT of the keyboard shortcuts that used to work seemlessly in Motion 3.
For example: I create a text object and start typing my text. About 30 percent of the time hitting the spacebar while typing text will cause playback to start. Pure annoyance.
I used to be able to Hit HOME and END to go to the start and end of the project when the layer's pane is active, now I can't.
About 25 percent of the time when I'm in the layers pane and I hit spacebar, instead of playing the project, I turn off the layer that was currently selected.
Those are just a few of my pet peeves. There are definitely some real issues with shortcuts in Motion 4.

Two quick questions about the new iMacs...

I work at a church, and this summer, we are breaking ground on a new building. I am hoping to get a new iMac to go in the new sound booth to run the Power Point. Two questions:
Would a church get a special discount when buying from Apple?
Did I hear somewhere that the new iMacs support an external monitor (a different output than the main monitor)?
Thanks!
Matthew

<<Would a church get a special discount when buying from Apple?
Did I hear somewhere that the new iMacs support an external monitor (a different output than the main monitor)?>>
I know Apple offers education and government discounts... I'm not aware of discounts for church organizations.
Yes, the iMac CD offers support for dual monitors, mirrored and extended.

Quick Question About the GS70 Stealth Pro-099 and Kensington Locks

Does the GS70 Stealth Pro-099 work with Kensington Locks (Does it have the Security Slot)?

Quote from: rhradacut on 16-December-14, 09:57:49
It should be on the right side along with the card reader slot and USB ports, between the power connector and ventilation slots.
Thanks! I just wanted to be sure before purchasing one of the locks.
