Suggestions for sync phone w/Sprint service

I need a new phone for work and there seems to be such a limited number that will work with my employer's Sprint service and my new mac's isync feature. I am in sales and my boss would like to keep it to $60 or so (with the rebate/new service). Possible? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Karen

I've just looked at the Sprint web-site, and, unbelievably, it appears you cannot get ANY of the most popular and Mac-friendly phones from them at all: i.e. Sony Ericsson or Nokia.
Natively iSync supported phones are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/index.html
then there are others supported by third-parties here:
http://www.novamedia.de/sync
http://www.feisar.com/sync
http://www.markspace.com/missingsync_windowsmobile.php
But from Sprint's rather pathetic offering, it appears you'll be limited to a MOTORAZR - but check that it is 100% iSync compatible because some mobile networks cripple the phones they sell.

    is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress  itunes  doesn't recognize the feed.
    my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/methods):
    garageband : create & edit audio. add 1400x1400 image.
    share to itunes.
    drag file to desktop.
    upload .m4a file to google drive.
    create a link post in wordpress using "podcast" tag & create "podcast" category.
    click on "entries rss" in wordpress, which takes me to the rss subscribe page (which is basically just my wordpress address with "/feed" at the end.
    i copy this url.
    go to itunes store > then "submit a podcast"
    itunes gives me the error message "we had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed."
    when i try to subscribe to my podcast in itunes, it does, but gives me no episodes available.
    i went back into wordpress and changed settings/ reading settings to : "full text" from "summary"
    still the same error message.
    i added a feedburner step after wordpress but got the same errors. i don't think i should have to add feedburner.
    wordpress seems to be encapsulating the rss, what am i doing wrong?
    this so much easier when you could go directly from garage band to iweb to mobileme; i miss those apple days (also idisk).

    if anyone has a super EASY process, i would LOVE to know what it is. EASY, meaning no html and also free. there are many free online storage systems available, many of which i currently use. the above process was just me trying to figure it out, if you have an easier method, please share. thank you so much!

    MobileMe is not free.
    Search : free webhosting
    You can narrow the results by being more specific by adding town, province or country.
    You can also start by checking out your own ISP.

  • ISync with Samsung SPH-800 Instinct cell phone on Sprint service

    Anyone have an idea how to sync the Instinct with iMac using OS X 10.5.6, or MacBook using 10.4.11?

    I tenuously believe you could not as of 1/1/09. No third party stuff, although apple makes it too hard to find out for sure, and some of the european third party isync plugin developers have obtuse websites.
    For Sprint, I think the Blackberry Pearl will work with The Missing Sync ($) or PocketMac for Blackberry (free,) for iCal via a usb cable. No bluetooth. Address Book will not work. I think you have to use another program to sync contacts.
    Sprint's upcoming iPhone-alike Palm Pre supposedly will support iSync, but early adopters often get the misery they deserve as unwitting beta testers.

  • Mixed feelings - Suggestions for a phone

    Yeah...smartphones...one of the technologies I have literally never really gotten into. I have used others phone so I do know how to operate them and probably know more than most about them actually but never really used different brands and such. I have mostly had influence in Samsung Galaxies at that. 
    I have mixed feelings about it and I am not 100% sure I will even be purchasing a phone for actual use any time soon or not. Long story short my phone bill is getting too high so I was thinking about going just all cellular. 
    Anyway so I would like to get suggestions as to what type of phone would be best suited for my needs. First off, I  do want a newer-ish phone. I also would like to point out that I have a visual impairment so probably a larger screen would be suggested but not a real requirement if it has apps to enlarge text/etc. 
    Here are some basic guidelines I would prefer to go by:
    -bluetooth of course
    -wifi if possible ( hotspot is the word I don't know? ) 
    -4G ( ? ) 
    -newer-ish meaning I am not looking for a flip up .... yeah...(don't even know why I listed cause we specificallyt alking about smartphones but whatever ) 
    I also need suggestions on what type of protective case that should go with it. I will probably get two of whatever phone I finally decide on. One for myself and one for my dad. I would probably get the survival version of a case for both of us.

    Bear in mind as of yet the Xperia Z2 isn't out in the US and rumors are currently saying May release dates. Personally I'm planning to grab a Note 3 once BB puts it up at $199 again (Missed a Weekend sale) so if you can't wait a couple of months that may be a good route to go.
    There's also the LG G2 which got high praise and is currently free with contract for most carriers, that screen size is 5.2" compared to the Galaxy Note 3 at 5.7" although personally I think the Note 3 would be better software wise.
    Apple doesn't make bad phones hell pretty much everyone in my family has an Iphone. I think the biggest I could say they have is the small screen sizes which are getting disappointing.
    Thanks for the feedback! I have been following this thread thus far and I will be continuing to do so. 
    I have heard similar rumors about a May/June launch of the device. I have waited this long already for a smartphone a month or so isn't going to hurt me to wait evenl onger. Even though I am considering geting a flex for my dad maybe. A friend has one and showed it to me. It looks pretty cool with the design I bet he would like the design/look of it personally more so than I would.

  • Suggestions for Chunking Large Outbound Web Service Messages from BPEL

    We have a problem today when Oracle EBS sends a large amount of data to BPEL, BPEL processes that data and then attempts to pass that data as a web service via a partner link to the PeopleSoft integration broker. When the message is too large ( > 10,000 records or so) we are hitting some issues on the PeopleSoft web server side being unable to receive that large of a message.
    "allocLargeObjectOrArray - Object size: 32768016, Num elements: 8192000"
    We are considering adjusting the BPEL program to chunk the outbound data being sent to PeopleSoft. The idea would be to use some type of loop and just break after so many lines, transmit the current message and then start a new message.
    The PeopleSoft integration broker has a setting, for outbound type integrations, that can enable an automated chunking feature called ‘Max App Message Size’. I was wondering, does BPEL have a similar configuration setting that might provide this feature? I’m dreaming up that this could be a property of the partner link object that could allow you to specify a certain ‘max size’ and then it would just know to start a new message at that threshold. That might avoid us having to make any additional BPEL code changes at this point.
    Currently using version 11.1.1.1.
    Any advice, much appreciated.

    Ken

    I have found the following tutorial that implements something similiar to what I am trying to do: http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/odi/10g/10135/odiscenario_bpelcallback/odiscenario_bpelcallback.htm#t3
    Because of this, I am now confident that the conversation IDs can be used to achieve correlation. I have implemented the pattern by performing
    an invoke activity on the web service, passing the result of ora:getConversationId() as part of the message. The conversation Id returned is of UUID-Form.
    After the invoke activity, I have added a pick activity to receive the response message supplied by the web service through IDeliveryService.post(...). I can see that the message is received correctly by loooking at the contents of DLV_MESSAGE. However, the pick activity times out every time (after 10m). Looking at DLV_SUBSCRIPTION reveals that the conversation_id for the pick/receive activity is set to a value of the form bpel://localhost/default/MyBpelProcessName~1.0/7610001-BpInv0-BpSeq2.7-2. As far as I know, this should instead be set to the UUID that ora:getConversationId() returned before performing the invoke activity. What is going wrong here?
    Thanks for your help!

  • Any suggestions for good phone?

    Is there a good phone to use without data plan? I do not need internet browser I just call and txt.
    I want it to be a decent looking.
    If not how many phones comes with the 10 dollar data plan? I can't seem to find any.
    Thanks

    Go to verizonwireless.com and browse the feature phones - those do not require a data plan, and only you can decide what "decent looking" means to you.

  • Suggestions for ear/headphones

    I just got my Nano and the Nike + system. The one problem I am having is with the ear buds that came with the Nano. No matter what I try, they keep falling out. Any suggestions for ear phones or headphones that work well for a runner?
    Thanks!

    I have tried several different brands, all earbud style:
    Sennheiser OMX-70 -- these do not fit my ear. The neck from the speaker to the outside piece is short and thick and so the headphones constantly pop out. I bought a podfitkit, which creates a mold around them to hold them in. It helps, but its difficult to get them in my ear with the mold. Plus, they are bright green, not my favorite color.
    Shure e2c -- these are great sounding headphones, but I had trouble keeping them in after I started sweating. Plus, the cord is heavy, so you really need to use a clip with them.
    Skullcandy smokin' ear buds -- these sound the best (to me, even better than the Shure e2c's). Lot's of bass without sacrificing quality for the higher frequencies. Very light, but are in canal models and thus can be difficult to keep in when sweating. Also, I don't like the cord. It is shorter for one ear. I prefer an even length cord. There is a merchant on EBay that sells them with Etymotic ear inserts. Have read other reviews that say this improves the sound quality and how well they stay in your ear.
    Philips MP3-CD with flexible ear hook -- these don't have the best sound, but they stay in my ear better than any others. Indoors, the sound quality is pretty good. But, they are designed with a bass port which creates a lot of wind noise when running outside. Have never had one fall out. Probably my favorite for use while running, but not otherwise. Walgreen's has them for less than $10.

  • I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

    I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

    The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works.  Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up.  Try them again. 
    Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp.  Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp.  Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.  
    Kep trying.

  • Best phone for Sync-ing with iCal?

    I'm due to upgrade my mobile and wondered which is the best available handset for Sync-ing with a mac. At present I have the Sony Ericson K750i which was working fine up until I upgraded to Tiger.
    Any ideas?

    Has anybody had any experience syncing the Motorola
    KRZR with iCal?
    I own a Motorola KRZR K1m (Sprint), which is supposedly supported by iSync 2.4. This seems to be a troublesome phone in regard to compatibility with iSync. If you read the iSync discussions, you will see many problems. Those that do get iSync to accept the KRZR as "supported" seem to still have problems with iCal in particular. Evidently, there are some system hacks available to force the sync to work with iCal. If you are not comfortable with getting inside files and re-writing code, then you may not be a happy camper.
    Naturally, if you have access to a Windows machine, you will have no problem. (... Getting ready to duck, since that last statement will draw out all the Apple apologists and Apple-employee-wannabes ...)
    Personally, I have had no success getting iSync to recognize my KRZR at all. While I can transfer files via bluetooth, the iSync issues make me wish I had some other phone. In fact, the iSync/KRZR issues are probably going to lead me to change to another (known to be supported) phone. Since I'm stuck with Sprint, that won't be easy.
    Good luck!

  • Iphone5 visit to Apple Genius Bar after phone would not connect to network.  Now phone is stuck in network set-up menu.  Suggestions for next steps?

    I am experiencing the never-ending searching on my iphone5.  Looking for solution and wanted to share some advice.
    I traveled out of the cellular network on 5/24 and turned off my phone.  The phone was turned back on 5/25 when I returned to an area where the phone previously connected to the network.  When the phone began searching for the network I performed the recommended trouble shooting steps, power on/off, reset network.  Once home I took it to the Spring store then to the Apple store.  No connection success.  Although the phone could connect via wi-fi and everything else worked fine the phone would not connect to the cellular network leaving the phone and internet service unavailable. 
    I asked  the Apple Genius Bar if their efforts would still allow me to update my phone via the backup information on the icloud.  The answer was yes.  However after all their efforts my phone was returned locked in the set up menu and is continues to search for a network.  I can no longer access a wi-fi connection or other apps on the phone following the factory reset and connecting the phone to the cellular service that work on 5/24.  Any tips are welcome since my phone is currently a paperweight.  Thank you.
    DO NOT ATTEMPT A FACTORY RESET or attempt removing/adding your device to existing cellular service unless your phone is under warranty or you are prepared to purchase a new phone.

    Sounds like a data issue on the iPhone. What does the carrier say? Sometimes hardware issues can cause the device to show 'searching' continuously.
    Basically, if you restore in iTunes, and the service is not activating after calling Sprint, you may be looking at a hardware replacement of the device.
