Using rubber cast and still loosing bars.

I recently bought the Iphone 4. I then purchased a rubber case for the death grip. But even with the case on I'm still losing bars. Is this happening for anybody else? Or is this just a fluke. Not sure what to do, maybe return the phone and hope for the best.
Thanks

Can you elaborate? I mean, do you lose the same number of bars. I don't think the case is supposed to totally eliminate it so if you used to lose 3 bars and now lose 1 or 2, that might be normal.
Also, which iOS do you have? 4.0 or did you upgrade to 4.0.1? If you updated, there should be fewer bars lost, but you'll probably start with fewer too - unless you are in a great spot with 5 bars. With the first OS, I could lose 4 bars. With the update, I usually just lose 2, but I start with fewer.
I know one antenna expert reported you could lose 24 decibels without the bumpers, but with them they still lost a far amount - I think it was something like 15, but I may be wrong.
I'm not sure about the argument another poster brought up about only helping in fringe areas. If you cut down on the decibel loss, you should have fewer bars lost, regardless. Oh, there may be times you are at the very bottom edge of, say, 4 bars, and drop to be at the very top of 2 bars or something, but multiple tests should generally show fewer bars lost than without the bumpers, in my opinion.

How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

You don't. Mirroring is duplicating your ipad screen on another projector - so you can't have another app going on your iPad without it also showing up on the projected image. Some apps are designed so that you see a different image in the iPad than the mirrored out display, but even then you're within the app itself.

Ichat is not working. tried using port 443 and still does not work

ichat not working. tried using port 443 and i stay on for about 45 seconds then it disconnects. Can you help?

HI,
Can you tell me the make and model of your routing device.
The 10 Second error message is caused by a break in the connection.
This could be the Wifi being dropped (if you are using WiFi) due to interference from other nearby routers.
It can be dues to setting or features of the router and if the experience has changed that could be due to a speed increase in your internet service.
If you are using Ethernet and having this issue it is much more likely to be a setting/feature issue.
Examples.
Netgears. These have a separate WAN set up page that lists either DoS or SPI as one of the things that can be Enabled or Disabled.
Linksys. If your model has a Security tab and this has Firewall then DoS and SPI are port of this.
Netopia devices Tend to have a 4 level Firewall which DoS and SPI are part of the two highest settings.
DoS = Denial Of Service and is a Threshold based "Protection" Feature.
it judges whether too much data is being sent to you (it was designed originally to stop people overloading Web Servers (many people, many refreshes).
iChat can outstrip the setting with most Internet Connections in most part of the world. (In fact iChat can send more data than most Video Streaming sites)
One thing you can do that may get around this is to reduce the Bandwidth used in iChat (iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth Limit drop down)
Try 500kbps

Do i have to buy a phone from verizon to use the edge plan? can i buy a used verizon phone and still recive the $25 per month discount with 10 gigs of data?

id prefer to buy a used phone for a lower price, but only if i can still get the edge discount

Don't do it... That verizon Edge will literally bring you over the edge should you try to leave, be sure to read the complete contract which they don't advertise correctly...
Verizon Wireless is basically a criminal who misleads their customers. My contract was almost up. I sign up for the Edge program, and the way it was explained to me, was "oh this way you can upgrade when you want (really once a year) and you aren't in a contract". Well that was a lie. I decide to go elsewhere so I call and ask what I need to do. They say "well, you are in a contract", (ok that wasn't told to me but fine) I ask what my termination fee is, they say "To get out of your edge program, you have to pay the $500 remaining fee for your phone ( Galaxy S5 which I was paying monthly, $25) and a termination fee for your service of $150."
HOLD up, so basically you are telling me that you guys came up with a way to charge two **** termination fees????? If I decided to take my phone with me, I could almost understand that, but If I give the phone back, why would I be paying for something that is no longer in my possession??? They say" That is how the Edge program works" WHAT COMPANY RUNS GAME LIKE THAT ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE THAT PHONE AND RESELL IT??? WHAT COMPANY LIES AT THE START OF A PROGRAM AND NEVER TELL YOU WHAT THE REAL DEAL IS???
I will be making it my business to go to every possible website to not only complain but warn potential customers to stay away from this company who will mislead you and then rob you when you decide to walk away. I worked for a telecommunication company for 10 years and never heard of anything like this in my life...***?!?!?!?!?!?

Ipod touch wont show up in usb or itunes help pages just bring me in circles. how can i get it to show up. I use windows xp at home and tried everything then tried a relatives computer using windows 7 and still nothing. this is an older ipod touch

the help pagers just bring me around in circles. the ipod doesn't show up in system devices under the busses. i've tried just about everything.

When i got the ipod a few days ago from a third party the only screen i could get to come up was a picture of a usb cord with an arrow pointing towards the itunes logo. I downloaded i tunes and couldn't get it to change. brought it to at&t store today they hooked it up with my usb cord to thier computer and suddenly the menu screens work and i could even get online with it yet when i try to hook it up to one of my computers it doesn't show up anywere where can i go to get this fixed and fixed quick jumping around the apple help pages have put me in a foul mood and im sick of it two days spent trying to get it to show now. im sick of waiting around i need help asap so i can return this **** thing if it turns out it is broken somehow..which i dont think it is.

Has anyone seen the CC Desktop use 100% CPU and show spinning bars on Apps tab?

Yesterday I subscribed to creative cloud. I installed the Creative Cloud Desktop but when I go to the 'Apps' tab all I get are the progress bars constantly rotating. I let it do this for over half an hour but nothing changed. I can see that the Creative Cloud Task is running at over 100%. I am using it on iMac running OS X Mavericks

I have had my Iphone 4s for a year and a half now and the speakers just stopped working two days ago. I can still use my headphones and still talk on it. What do I do?

I need help with Iphone 4s speakers

"Speakers", I assume you mean the receiver and the (one) speaker at the bottom.
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers

Can i conect a extreme via the rj45 and still extend my wireless to another main extreme acting as the router?

Can I connect a extreme using the rj45 and still extend my wireless to another time capsule working as the router?

Yes, that should be possible. I am assuming that you have the first AirPort connected to the Internet modem or another router by Ethernet and you want to extend it with another AirPort.

Good point BDAqua, the Escape key helps get me back to reality in Lion.
While I've only dabbled around a little in Lion since it's release (I upgraded a 10.6 Clone to Lion on one of my FireWire Drives) now I'm currently downloading Mountain Lion (to upgrade a Clone of that Lion Clone) so that now I can continue to move forward in madness.
P.S. Trust me, I'm not laughing.

Adding stills to a concert and lot loosing the sync

Hi all, Thanks for your attention to my dilemma. I have finished editing a school concert of my daughter singing. Now that I'm done, she has given me some stills, which I've added to iPhoto. She would like them added to the concert video. How do I de-link the audio and video of the concert, add stills in various places and not loose the synchronization between the audio and video? I've seen that I can extract the audio from the video, but I can't figure out how to insert the stills without "pushing" the video and loosing my sync. I'm sure it can be done. I just someone to point me in the proper direction.
cheers,
Jack

The problem here is that you have a finite length of audio which, to keep in synch, has to match visuals of the same duration.
One thing you can do to extract the audio so that you have the soundtrack in a separate timeline. Now decide for how long you want each photo to appear. Let's call it 5 seconds. Edit out 5 seconds of one of the clips of the video and add the photo. hat will retain the total length of video and keep you in synch.
Alternatively, have you considered having the photos appear in a corner of the screen while the video is playing, in other words: picture within picture. This can be done using Quicktime, but is a bit fiddly although worth the effort.
When editing the video of my younger son's wedding (the part where his older brother gives the infamous Best Man Speech), I managed to insert old photos of incidents referred to in his speech as he was making it, to the intended embarrassment of all concerned!
Here is how to do it:
Organize the video clips and/or stills that you want to superimpose on to your main video clip, by having these in separate, individual iMovie projects (no matter how small). It helps if these are in the exact length/time you want later.
Now start with the clip in your iMovie project on to which you want to superimpose one of more smaller video clips or stills. Lets call it Main Clip. Export this (share) to Quicktime Pro in DV (full quality). make sure it has the same aspect as before (Quicktime tends to default to 4:3. If you want 16:9, read on).
In Quicktime, with this project open, select File ~ Open File. Select the iMovie file (in your movies folder) of the first clip/still you want superimposed. This will open in its own QT window. Select Edit ~ copy. If it is a movie clip then select all ~ copy (or you will only get one frame!). Switch back to the Main Clip window, and click in the scroll bar where you want the extra clip/still to appear. Choose Edit ~ Add to Movie.
You can repeat this as many times as you like, if you want to build a 'Video Wall', i.e. have several superimposed clips/stills on the same Main Clip.
Do not worry that the new clip overlaps or covers up the Main Clip, at this stage.
Choose Window ~ Show Movie Properties. The Properties Dialogue appears.
You will see a list of video (and audio) tracks. Track one will be the Main Clip, track 2 your new added (superimposed) clip. Click track 2, then click visual settings. From the Scaled Size pop-op menu, choose percent. Then type 50 into the first box. If Preserve Aspect Ratio is turned on you won't need to type 50 into the second box. You have made the pasted footage appear at one quarter its original size. The inset is now hugging the top-left corner of the Main Clip. If you want, you can type numbers into the Offset Boxes to shove it away from that corner (there are 72 pixels to the inch).
If your original Main Clip was required in 16:9, unclick (de-select) Preserve Aspect Ratio, and type in the relevant numbers in the two boxes, in Video Track 1.
PAL (for Europe):
Standard DV (4:3) 788 x 576
DV Widescreen (16:9) 1050 x 576
NTSC (for the USA):
Standard DV (4:3) 720 x 528
DV Widescreen (16:9) 874 x 480
This will not affect video track 2, but if that is also wanted in 16:9 repeat for that track.
You can superimpose, 3, 4, or more such 'overlaps' on the same clip, and spend a happy afternoon tapping away for each track in the Offset Boxes until you have got them all in the right place! You can even overlap them, if you can remember (or note down - hire a secretary to take notes) which track you want on top etc.
Save the completed QT file. Import the completed file into a new iMovie project. Import this into the original iMovie project, substituting the old clip you copied to QT as Main Clip for the new fancy clip you have made.

If Other (the yellow bar) is too big something is corrupted. The only solution (that I know of) is to restore from your most recent backup using iTunes (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766).
