Suggestion for a possible iphone with slide out keyboard.

I dont really know if there is a suggestion forum but i thought it would be neat if apple designed a iphone with a physical keyboard for those people who love to text. Apple could even run a internet pole to see what there customers would think i mean the iphone is top notch but i think having one with a slide out keyboard could possibly increase apples sales. Any who just thought id throw that out there and keep up the great work Apple.

This is where you need to go with your suggestion: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
I would not hold my breath.

    can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the 6 plus?

    There are 2 separate issues here:
    - The Apple 30 pin to USB cable was redesigned to remove the 2 button squeeze feature pricesley because of your issue with the buttons falling off and consumers being unable to disconnect the cords.  The newly redesigned cable removes these 2 side buttons for a shorter 30 pin connector that will work just fine in Apple devices.  If there is an ergonomic reason for wanting the larger 2 button design you can buy a host of 3rd party Apple 30 pin to USB cables on the market.  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA591G/C/apple-30-pin-to-usb-cable?fnode=3a

    - The issue of your iPad reporting that it isn't charging is a DIFFERENT issue.  Your USB cable is FINE.  The reason you are getting this message is beacuse the Power Adaptor that the USB cable plugs into isn't providing enough electrical juice.  If you are plugging your USB cable into your PC it might not be getting enough power.  If you are plugging it into your iPhone Power Adaptor (5W) it isn't strong enough to charge your iPad with it on (it will trickle charge if you have your iPad off).  What you need is the Apple 12W charger for iPad.  Your original power adapter that came with you iPad 2 was a 10W charger that Apple no longer sells.  Make sure the USB cable you are using it plugged into either a 10W or 12W power adapter!  http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipad/ipad_accessories/power
    Tech speak if interested: the 12W charger uses the USB cable to detect which iPad is connected and gives it 1 AMP for iPhone, 2.1 AMP for iPad 1,2 & Mini and 2.4 AMP for iPad 3&4.

    Apparently not (in the U.S.).  See the photo - it only shows T-Mobile as accepting contract-free (from the Apple Store).

  • Solutions for issues on iPhones with firmware 3.0

    Don't know if these issues - flaws and fixes have been addressed in this forum, but here it is.
    Issues:
    Since updating to firmware 3.0 on my 2G and 3G iPhone, I have noticed the following problems on both iPhones:
    1) slow response, faster battery drain, general erratic behavior
    2) GPS is inaccurate, long time to connect to satellites for GPS tracking, was accurate when on firmware 2.2.1 using Map app (only on 3G or maybe 3GS iPhones too)
    Fixes:
    1) turns out that the cause of the first issue on both iPhones (at least for me) was when the iPhones updated to firmware 3.0 - PUSH email service was automatically enabled. Disabling PUSH email service to FETCH email service in preference did the trick. While your there, scroll to the bottom and chose Advance then choose each email address and change to Fetch as well for each email address listed. Yes this will disable Push email, but will temporarily fix this issue until the firmware fix comes out.
    2) this issue is really addressed for 3G and 3GS iPhones with GPS capabilities only. To make the GPS accurate again and connect with tracking satellites, turn off 3G networking service. Probably another firmware issue which causes a GPS - 3G network conflict, but once the 3G network service is disabled, the GPS worked accurately again and connected to tracking satellites instantaneously. GPS accuracy worked flawlessly with Navigon app mapping when 3G network service is disabled. When you need the 3G service just activate again.
    These simple fixes might not work for everyone, but try it out, it worked for me.

    and by the way...
    I found out that if you push Play, FM, Record and the 5-way-button-down; it resets the player.
    You don't have to wait for the battery to run down.
    OH MY GOD!!!!!
    YOU'RE MY HERO!!!!!
    I still have my own topic unanswered about the file sorting in the player, tho....:(

  • Suggestion for modification in iphone

    I would like iphone to read pdf files, and save ebooks in my iphone, for example: student medicine, i like save books in mi pda,

    You can read pdf files on the iPhone, if they have been sent to you in an email, or if you look them up in Safari. That is how I refer to the iPhone User guide from the Apple site.
    eBooks can be a problem, because sometimes, as is done by my college library, they are downloaded as Windows Media files, and they have specific DRM. They also have an expiration date to them. You check them out just like a library book. They, meaning the particular ones from my libraby, can't be used on an iPod, or iPhone.
    I read a post in the past week about someone downloading audio books from CD into iTunes and syncing them. I can't remember it exactly, but if you search the discussions you should find it. Use audiobook as a search topic.
    Otherwise, making suggestions for modifications is done through their feedback page, www.apple.com/feedback
    Hope this helps you.

  • Need suggestions for a new printer with OS 10.9.5

    I have a 2010 HP 6500 A Plus printer that has worked well with my iMac circa 2010. Printer is not feeding paper. It won't scan. Are there suggestions for a new compatible printer for OS 10.9.5.?

    Hey Debbisita,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are experiencing issues with your Printer and OS X. Before opting to purchase a new printer, you can try these troubleshooting steps to completely isolate the issue:
    Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/ts3147
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • DO Corp. owned iPhones brick when wiped (employee registered for "Find My iPhone" with their iTunes account)

    We issue Corp. owned iPhones to employees.  If the employee registers the phone for "Find My iPhone" using their personal iTunes account, if the employee leaves or is terminated and we have to wipe the phone, does the phone brick?

    They do not brick, but it would be necessary to either turn off Find My iPhone prior to restoring the device or knowing the Apple ID/password that the Find My iPhone was setup with to turn it off afterwards.
    Without this information, the device would be useless.

  • Suggestions for Apple in dealing with icloud outages

    The ongoing outage of icloud mail service to many of us, two days and counting as of Sept 12, 2012,  prompts me to make some constructive suggestions for Apple.
    Apple should find ways of letting customers know whether customer inability to access their icloud mail is something the customer can fix or whether it is a problem only Apple can fix.
    As a starter, the popup windows that users see when icloud mail is unavailable should direct them to the web site where system status of icloud mail is shown, namely
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/
    Customers will be less likely to exhibit anger toward Apple if they are given some real information about why icloud mail is unavailable. This can be put on the system status web page above.
    The staff on the floor at Apple Stores should know, and be willing to tell customers, that when their own ipads are having difficulty communicating because of a server problem, that this may also affect the service to customers.
    Apple should consider gathering from clients of icloud mail some alternative email accounts that could be used to notify clients of outages.
    Apple should acknowledge that people do rely on their icloud services and should find ways of using backup servers, much as hospitals have backup generators to supply electricity when municipal sources fail.

  • Any suggestions for a wet iPhone? It's dried out, but all I get is a black screen, even when hooked up to charger. You think the apple people could  actually fix this?

    I got a wet iPhone. It's dried out now, but still dark screen, even when plugged in

    Hence the term "OUT OF WARRANTY EXCHANGE".

  • Suggestion for improving battery life with Reminders in iOS5 on iPhone 4

    I am experimenting with a location-based reminder, and once again the Location icon is permanently on and my battery is being drained. I'm not a programmer but I have a couple ideas:
    Use the accelerometer in the phone to determine if it's moving, and then start looking for location.
    Most people, when they're at work, are at work for several hours, so there's no benefit to polling for location while you're sitting at your desk. Perhaps the phone could learn your routine and know not to look for location between say, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
    Or you could have a setting to explicitly tell it not to poll during the week between certain hours.
    This would make Reminders more useful. Also is there better battery management for this stuff on the 4S? Is that another benefit?
    Thanks!

  • Suggestions for formatting external drive with bad block?

    I have a OWC Mercury 300 GB external drive.  I wanted to erase it and use it as a backup for one of my laptops.  The drive had been working fine as a Time Machine back up for an old (intel) iMac. I told Disk Utility to erase and reformat.  It erased, but refused to reformat saying there was a bad block on the drive.  Now Disk Utility recognizes the external drive but won't do anything with it.  No Verify. No Repair.  All grayed out.  Any suggestions?

    I wasn't a hard error, that's why. Repartitioning and reformatting will often fix soft errors in the directory structure. Had there been a real, new, bad block on the drive it would not be repairable. A soft bad block error can be fixed by reformatting. The hard block error may be fixable by using Zero Data one pass that may spare out the bad block. But if none of that works then you need to replace the drive.
    You were fortunate that the error probably was spurious and resolved by repartitioning (may have been in the disk's RDB.)

  • Any suggestions for editing Music Videos with Multiclip?

    Hi there. I have been reading about the new multiclip feature in FCPHD5. Sounds as if it would be perfect for editing a performance music video with multiple run throughs. In fact it almost seems too good to be true. I was writing to ask if anyone has tried this and what problems they encoutnrered or what workflow they could recommend. I haven't used multiclip before (or editied many music videos either) and would appreciate any suggestions.
    This is my idea so far.
    capture offlineRT the whole tape, make subclips with an angle setting of each take. Then edit the multiclip in a timeline which includes the song as an audio track. I thought I would synch with inpoints manually set to the beginning of the songs first riff in playback (as there was no clapper on set that day, curse them)
    I have questions about onlining as well and how to make it a less tormenting nerve racking experience. Maybe its just me but the thought of trashing all the media, duplicating projects and recapturing makes me break out in a cold sweat. But I'll deal with that later.
    Thanks for your thoughts, observations, suggestions.
    Have a merry Christmas
    Sincerely
    Peter Stenhouse

    The plan was to sync up the mixed PT audio to the video track. However the club screwed up the recording and I was left with using the audio from one of the tripod mounted cameras that I placed a stereo mike on.< </div>
    General advice for live performances:
    1. Depending on a computer to make the only recording is a silly idea. Use tape or a minidisk. Take a line feed off the main board and record it on at least one of the cameras.
    2. There is nothing that will substitute for missing timecode better than a good countdown. Insist the band develop a creative visual and aural timing cue that all cameras and mics can see.
    3. The most important part of shooting a performance or a lipsync gig for mulitcamera assembly is preproduction. The bugs, glitches and gotchas are all well known and thoroughly documented on thousands of band blogs.
    4. There is no excuse to go into a location shoot unprepared and carrying a solid backup plan for all of the stuff that will go wrong.
    5. A full, all-camera, all-personnel rehearsal is a good idea.
    6. The band's lighting guy knows nothing about video. Give him some help or give him the day off.

  • Suggestion for installing 11gr2 crs with existing 10g crs...

    Hi, I need suggestions on installing 1120 rac on suse 11 where already 10g rac with asm is running. I need to upgrade the 10g crs and asm while installing 11g crs. Pls share your experience on these
    1- what are the challenges to run 10g database on 11gr2 crs? is this suggested?
    2- challenges to upgrade asm and crs to 11gr2.
    3- can we use 2 asm instance in 11g grid infra to manage 10g and 11g db separately.
    4-what could be back strategy for this kind of setup? RMAN?
    5-how many extra ip i need to install 11g crs with existing 10g crs . we plan to use 3 ip for scan.
    Also if possible please share any doc for this kind upgrade
    Thanks,
    Abhai

    1.) Yes this is o.k. Just see this MoS Note:
    Pre 11.2 Database Issues in 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure Environment (Doc ID 948456.1)
    2.) Well first only clusterware is upgraded. You will be asked if you want to upgrad ASM, but this is not mandatory at first.
    You can use ASMCA later to switch ASM from 10.2 to 11.2 (this does not have to be done during upgrade).
    3.) No you can only have 1 ASM running. So it is either 11.2 or 10.2 ASM. (However I suggest 11.2).
    However you can/should have multiple diskgroups. One data and fra for the 11.2 databases where you set the rdbms.compatibility to 11.2 to use the new features, and one data an fra diskgroup for the 10.2 databases.
    4.) As long as the compatibility setting of a diskgroup isn't changed, you can always switch ASM back to use 10.2 executables. (Just do a srvctl remove asm and add ASM).
    Search this forum - there has been another thread about this.
    Regarding fallback of clusterware => See installation guide.
    5.) Mandatory are just 3 additional IPs for the SCAN.
    Upgrade documentation see the installation guide of 11.2 GI.
    Upgrade for ASM see Storage Admin Guide.
    Upgrade to move OCR and Vote to ASM see Clusterware Admin Guide.
    Upgrade to database see Database Upgrade Guide
    Additionally look in MoS for the Upgrade Companion.

  • Suggestions for cover/skin compatible with iTalk

    I have Speck Products Tough Skin and it is not iTalk compatible to say the least.
    Any suggestions on a good alternative?

    Hi,
    1- The [Otterbox|http://www.otterbox.com/apple-iphone-4-cases/apple-iphone-4-cases,def ault,sc.html] has a solid reputation for being the most durable case of all. It's a little chunky but anything that offers decent protection isn't going to be paper thin. I'm not aware of any customizable photo case.
    2- There are many cases with a backup battery built in ([Mophie is popular|http://www.mophie.com/mophie-juice-pack-air-iPhone-4-battery-case-p/114 5_jpaxp4.htm] but none have inductive charging. Fair warning- this technology is still in it's infancy with consumer gadgets and many consider the inconveniences (having a large lump on the back of your phone) not worth the 3 seconds it saves you from having to plug it in.

  • A suggestion for all the people with panics and piix

    Everyone may overlook this because it seems so simple of a possible fix. So I will try to explain why it may help. It has worked for me, and several others. My laptop uses this chipset, and so it intermittantly panics for me if I don't use this. My information may not be 100% precise, but I will try to explain the best I know.
    Since linux started using udev, hardware detection is asynchronous now. This allows faster and more efficient detection, but can cause all sorts of problems depending on the quality of your motherboard, bios, and other gear. So depending on circumstances, the time it takes for udev to get responses from all hardwares might vary depending on any number of circumstances. Limitless changes in kernel, firmwares, bios, drivers, etc- everyone's experience might vary. It may have worked fine in 2.6.17, but 2.6.18 does not work at all, 2.6.19 is spotty, etc...
    This problem mostly occurs in my usb/external and sata drives. But in certain times I will get panic on my ide internal drive on boot. The bootloader relies on BIOS detection to get started. But once kernel loads, control is turned over to kernel. But kernel/udev request might not get response in time (since its asynchronous now) before boot tries to turn over to root=/dev/xxx. So mount fails, panic occurs. Earlymodules=piix tries to thwart this problem by loading the module much sooner. But again, depending on yout hardware, it might not happen soon enough. Also, since the drive will be busy at random times depending, it might need to finish up before it will respond to udev.
    In summary, the drive has not responded to udev/kernel before the bootloader finishes loading the kernel and tries to turn control over to the new root. earlymodules=piix works for some, not others. Especially now since pata over ide. If you have this problem, the fix very well might be as simple as this, especially if you have sata, scsi or usb drives: Add rootdelay=15 on kernel line in bootloader. For example:
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26ck root=/dev/sda2 rootdelay=15
    15=15 seconds. Might not need this much, but 15 second delay should be ample time for most people. For me, i don't use the earlymodules=piix, and I use rootdelay=5, and every time is fine. This option tells the kernel to literally wait x seconds before trying to turn root=/dev/xxx over and continuing boot. during this pause, you might see misc. devices returning info to udev before continuing, including your drive.
    It really probably does seem to easy or simple to be true. But try it- it might work for you. I have seen more people say OMG IT WORKED!! versus people who say it didn't. Hope this helps some of you.
