Tutorial on accessing the iPhones GPS location?

Hi
Is there any tutorials out there that would show me how to access the iPhones GPS location? I've heard that it can be done but it didn't say anymore than that!
Many Thanks in advance

Hi Guys,
Found the information I was looking for, if you are interested it is here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS144092a96ffef7cc-66bf4d0212658dde8c4-7fff.html
Oh and OMG! They have made it so simple! Thank you Adobe, you are my gods! *LOL* Is that a bit too much? *LMAO*
Many Thanks for making such a kick arse system, I really look forward to what you will do with it in the future.

Can I use the gps on the iphone to locate the last place the phone was before the battery died?

How can I find my iphone if the battery is dead. Is there a way to find where it was when it died?

Pray to whatever superior being you believe in that it will be returned.
With a dead battery it is not possible to track it.
There is no service that stores the prior GPS locations of iDevices. That would be a HUGE privacy invasion.

If my iPhone was stolen and wiped clean can I figure out the exact time it was wiped and the last GPS location before it was wiped?

Sorry, no.

Cannot display the folder. Microsoft Outlook cannot access the specified folder location.

Hi, guys
I cannot view delegate mailbox in Outlook. Following is my configure.
I have two mailbox A-User and B-User
Login Outlook as A-User, click File -> Account Settings -> Delegate Access, add B-User and give Editor permission of Inbox.
Right click A-User's root inbox and select Properties -> Permission, select B-User and check "Folder visible".
Login Outlook as B-User on other computer, click File -> Account Settings -> Account Settings, select B-User and click Change -> More Settings -> Advanced, add A-User.
Now I can see a root A-User in Navigation Pane. But when I click it, it shows
"Cannot display the folder. Microsoft Outlook cannot access the specified folder location."
or
"Cannot display the folder. Microsoft Outlook cannot access the specified folder location. The operation failed. An object cannot be found".
I searched some solutions from internet, but all of them don't work. Could you give some suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi,
First, please double check if you have given the right permission to B-User on your step 2.
In addition, we can try to give a higher permission to the B-user to check the result.
Please feel free to post back and let me know the result.
Best Regards,

Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls

Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts using the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls tab. Has anyone a fix for this problem? If you want to try it out, do the following?
Dial a number from your iPhone Keypad. After cutting the call, try to save the number you just dialled to your contacts by choosing the new contact option. You will see that you will not be able to key in the name of your new contact.

Works fine for me.
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Two days ago, I have a new iphone 4S. After I installed the OS and start the iphone, I found a strange screen says "!9D/JC" that blocks the iphone and I can not access the iphone until click many times on the "Desmiss" button at the botom of the screen.

I appreciate if you could provide me support to solve this problem especially it consumes the battery a lot.

Another post originally dated 5th Feb, 2012 with a slightly different unheard of error "%7D/JC".

The user also claimed that he didn't meddle with iOS. No solution could be found though.

I forget the lock code and now I can not access the iphone. What I can do?

I forget the lock code and now I can not access the iphone. I try to restore it, but ask me to go to iphone settings to which I have no access and I can not download the latest version of iOS to do it.
Thanks!

If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod), however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

How can I use the iPhone GPS without a contract?

Is there any way? Call me crazy, but I want GPS and I already have a cellphone that I'm not interested in replacing. Would it be possible to go and get an iPhone and use the GPS without paying for a plan? I already use AT&T, but what don't want is to pay for the data plan. Does the GPS system use the AT&T service to function at all?
Thanks!

The iPhone 3G will be sold at at&t and Apple brick and mortar stores only - at least initially, and activation and signing a two year contract will be required at the store when the iPhone is purchased. The unlimited data plan is not an option and is required.
The iPhone includes what is called A-GPS or assisted GPS.
The iPhone Maps application downloads selected maps from Google, which is downloaded to the iPhone via wi-fi or at&t's cellular network. GPS without having access to maps won't be much good. Some 3rd parties may provide select maps that can be purchased and downloaded to the iPhone via the iTunes App Store for access via GPS if there is no cell phone reception, but this is unknown.

IPhone GPS location incorrect when connected to home wireless network

Hi all,
My iPhone GPS works well except when I am at home and connect to my wireless network. It always gives the same incorrect location about 3km away from my house. When I turn wireless off then the phone gives my correct location.
I think it is somehow getting confused when connecting to my airport. (I wonder if it is showing the location of the local telephone exchange?)
Has anyone else encountered this problem or found a solution? Or can I somehow tell my airport where it is?
Thanks!

A company called Skyhook Wireless maps WiFi and cell tower locations it scans. Apple uses this to help your GPS locate itself quicker. Here's how it works: http://www.skyhookwireless.com/inaction/apple.php
If your WiFi has not been scanned properly, you can submit a WiFi location update by going here: http://www.skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/submit_ap.php

Map screen: assign the same GPS location to a "sparse" group of pictures

Let's say a have a buch of photos that have beeen taken at the same spot at different times. The pictures are scattered across the fimstrip and might even belong to different collections in the same catalog (or even different catalogs?). What is the best way to assign the same GPS coordinates to all these pictures using Map screen?
Of course, the direct way to do that is to carefully select all these photos in the filmstrip and then click the desired location on the map. This is problematic for more reasons than one. Firstly, it is difficult to scroll through the entire strip and pick out the pictures one by one. Secondly, if I acccidentally miss one or two pictures, I have to start all over again.
The better way would be some sort of copy-paste appproach: copy the desired location into the clipboard (from another image or straight from the map) and then paste it over the desired images one by one or, better, over groups of images. One feature that at first looks promising in this regard is the text entry field on the right that contains the GPS coordinates in text form. It is editable, meaning that I can copy the coordinates (in text form) from one image and paste it into the same field of another image. However, this unfortunately does not guarantee that the images will end up with identical locations: the image that received new coordinates might (and will) end up with a slightly different location on the map that the "donor" image. This means that the coordinates are stored internally with better precision than their representation in that text entry field.
So, what are the other options?

You could also do this copying of GPS location to whatever photos you want using non-Lightroom (freeware) tools such as GeoSetter or ExifTool. This makes the issue of precision go away, and of course those tools can copy the GPS location to any photo you have, regardless of what Lightroom catalog it is in.
So, you'd have to use LR to write the metadata to the photos, then use non-Lightroom tools to copy the GPS location, then back in Lightroom read the metadata.

How do I change the photo GPS location from DMS to D.ddd

I get GPS location as part of the information along with a photo. It shows in Degrees Minutes and seconds. Is there a way to make it record as Degrees and fractional degree?

Thanks. Is sadness, like many other aspects of Apple "can't do it" attitude. Prevent rather than enable.

How do I clear out history on the iPhone search located on home screen

Past text messages come up in the iPhone search even though they were deleted and are no longer in phone book.

Only by restoring your phone as a new device, not from backup. The data is in a cache that is not user accessible. It will eventually be overwritten as you use your phone. But, if you want it gone now, restoring as new will get rid of it.

HT1766 My iPhone 5 "froze" and the only item that is displayed is an iTunes logo (musical notes) and a white USB cord with arrow pointing towards the logo. I cannot access the iPhone through my computer or get it to do anything else. Dave

While attempting to set up my new iPhone for iTunes the first time, an error message displayed on my computer saying that I needed to restore it to my factory settings and the only function that the iPhone displays is the message listed above.

that's the exact same thing that happened to my iPhone 5. (see my thread) Well that occured after I downloaded the iOS 6.2. The very same image appeared to my phone. What I did was (well the situation left me no option) restored it to factory settings. However, your iTunes must dowload (i think) new version of software for your phone. It took me 3 hrs!. But I also have to warn you. It may still ask you to restore again, and again, and again, after each restoration.
What I did was, disconnect the cable from your phone and computer, then press the power and home button together, hold it down lke that till the apple logo appears. The phone successfully worked but Siri & the voice command keep messing with my calls, playing music by itself, returning to home by itself.

Access the iPhone files.

I found there are many directories we can't access such as /private/var/mobile/Media/iTunes_Control/. I want to access the videos from iTunes. Can anybody give me some ideas?

Sorry, I thought you came to a conclusion on this before?

Using desktop to access the iPhone

I just got the iPhone and am trying to use the phone from my desktop. I need to populate my address book among many things and find it easier if I use my desktop. Is this possible?

In a word, no.
The iPhone does not support disk mode.
You select transferring data from your computer to your iPhone under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync with iTunes.
