'Voice Memo' changed for the worst after 8.1...

Apple has changed how the 'Voice Memo' app works. It no longer switches automatically to speaker volume when played. You must now enable it manually by clicking the little speaker icon (will turn blue) towards the upper right corner.
Pre iOS 8.1 (or earlier versions) installation:
1. Voice Memo would sound through speakerphone once play is engaged
2. When a headphone is plugged in; sound comes through headphone, when removed; sound comes back to speakerphone.
Post iOS 8.1 installation:
1. When played with no headphones, sound now comes through the earpiece enabling you to listen like while listening to a call.
2. No sound through speakers - will not come on unless you press the little speaker icon (turned blue) towards the upper right corner. Will override earpiece volume.
3. When headphone is plugged in, it will override both speaker/earpiece depending on what mode it was on
4. Unplugging headphone will not bring sound back to speakers but only to earpiece.
Too much work.

I did a hard reset by holding the two buttons down. Mine worked the same way as you described. How about unplugging the headphone? It will not default back to the last state, ie; speakerphone>headphone>unplug headphone>earpiece. As stated in this logical order, it will not go back to speakerphone but to earpiece.
My guess is that they've added the 'earpiece' feature therefore an icon is needed. But instead of for controlling the speakerphone, the icon should be for the earpiece, or AT LEAST automatically defaults back to speakerphone when the jack is free.
Honestly, I'd rather prefer it like before instead of having more steps to tinker with.

  • Business Catalyst changes for the worst

    I just have to say that I am getting really frustrated with the changes going on with Business Catalyst at the moment. Here are a few things I am finding really frustrating. Does anyone else feel the same?
    What happened to the www.businesscatalyst.com site. It now redirects to a section within Adobe site. In my opinion  this new sub site is a usability nightmare, especially when trying to find out pricing.
    There are no clear links to  forums and support on this new sub site.
    There are so many broken links in the support site. Much of the useful content I used to reference constantly leads to broken links.
    Why have many of my sites automatically been switched to the V3 Preview. I also feel that V3 Preview a massive move in the wrong direction. Sure it looks pretty mut many of the useful cross links have disapeared such as links to the Advance Layout Customization whilst in a web app or catalog.
    My main frustration is with the support site. Come on Business Catalyst, why have you made something that was working fine into something that is almost ususable.

    Well good look in other systems such as wordpres then, I think folowing your comments you will find similar and different issues along the same stuff if these things are causing you problems.
    Change can be jarring for some and some adopt faster then others. Things are not perfect yet but with every release there is a big list of UI improvments with the new interface design. It also sets in place the framework interface design for all the new features being worked on.
    Web apps wont stay as they are and a new web app system with more controls, more options will be included and how it has been seperated in the interace has that line in mind.
    I think the left hand menu system is one of the more polished elements and I find it works very well, Top elements of pages, definition of buttons, and some links and things (some added in the last update) have been needed and People have commnted on say getSatisifaction and BC have listened and rolled out the changes.
    I do not think having just a general rant blast is any way constructive at all and I have to say, bar the tweaks needed your sadly in the minority with your views on it.
    But as with anything, if you feel this is not for you, find something that is. Good look though. I have used Many current CMS's out there and bar the small ones that lack functionality but have awesome UI design, Joomla, Wordpress, not exactly the best things in the world when you use them. Big Commerce is quite nice but has the same issues as the old BC UI and like...
    Blog is on the main site, town hall stuff is on the blog.
    In terms of the support changes, they are not good, I myself am trying to push on getting things improved as others in the comminty

  • Code that call and change for the PO after GR

    Hi All,
    I'm doing an automatic outbound delivery creation after doing goods reciept. The ouput type should be triggered when the PO is being change. Does anyone know where on the programs called by the transaction MIGO is the PO being change so that I can tract if the output type is triggered when I do GR?

    Hi  Sai,
                   I suggest  not  to change the PO Currency once the GR and Invoice  is Posted , As the  Reports which fetch the PO value will go wrong if we do that.
    PS.  In ME22n System disables  the Currency feild once GR and Invoice Is posted.
    Thanks

  • Hi how do i delete voice memos from my iPhone 4 after I have synched them with iTunes?

    Hi how do i delete voice memos from my iPhone 4 after I have synched them with iTunes?

    Hi James thanks so much for your reply
    What I was trying to do though was to mass delete the voice memos from the phone, and I was told that one can do that via iTunes. Problem is that when I do open iTunes, I am not able to locate a TAB thats says ON THIS IPHONE
    I was told that one could click on this and then select multiple Voice Memos and delete this way.
    Thanks again for your assistance

  • How can I get my voice memos back to the voice memo app on my iphone

    Yeah, i just synced my iphone with my iTunes library and almost everything went smooth..  my pictures, apps, contacts, calendar, etc.  But I can not find the most important thing, the voice memos..  I had transferred them to my iTunes library the last time i synced, so i thought logically they should sync back into my voice memo app. Its important because they were lectures (im in college)!  And I planned to keep in order until the end of the semester until i had to restore it and back it up (because i went to get a new iphone)..
    But now, i open the voice memo app, and its blank, there's not one memo..  And i don't know how to get them back in there..  I think i could put them in my Music library, but i dont want to do that.   I like to keep them in the voice memo app, so when i have exams i can just go back and listen to them in order (without them being all over the place.) 
    So all I'm asking is, is there a way to get my voice memos back to the voice memo app?  I have the latest version of iTunes (11.0.1.12) and an iPhone 4 with the latest iOs (6.0.1) and note i have a PC (Windows 7)..    I hate how iTunes totally changed their layout, it makes it harder.  That's why i couldn't follow older discussions on here, because the update made the layout so different..  Anyway, if you know what i should do, i would be very grateful.  Thanks. 

    Hey mahongue!
    I have some information here that may help you import your voice memos into iTunes. This information is written for the iPod, but the steps for saving your voice memos should be the same with your iPhone:
    Synchronize
    If iPod is set to update songs automatically and you record voice memos, the voice memos are automatically downloaded to a playlist in iTunes when you connect iPod. Once downloaded, the voice memos are removed from the Voice Memos folder on your iPod. To play the voice memos that have been synchronized to your computer in iTunes, select the Voice Memos playlist on the left side of the iTunes window. To play the synchronized voice memos on the iPod, select the Voice Memos playlist in the Music menu, not the Voice Memos menu in the Extras menu.

  • My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

    Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?

    And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
    I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
    The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
    And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.

  • I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

    I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine.  I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.   I just get barely audible static.  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

    Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
    Thanks!

    The answer helped me.But still, what are the settings that I have to change for the behavior of the mouse pointer towards finder? Also the mouse pointer sometimes  doesn't accept my command and start clicking itself.what is the problem and how to fix it?

    If the mouse clicks something on its own then it looks like you have a hardware problem with the trackpad or possibly the battery that is right underneath the trackpad.
    I have read that the battery can swell and that would put pressure on the trackpad.

  • I have an IPhone 5 black, an want tho change for the white one.

    I have an IPhone 5 black, an want tho change for the white one. Only 17 days and the painting is foling of :( . The phone is protected from day 1. Need help. Bought from Vodafone Portugal.
    Thx

    If a defect in a single device causes you decide that you will no longer purchase Apple products, that is certainly within your rights to decide. But I'd suggest you allow Apple to replace your iPhone, which again will be another black model, and see if that unit fares better. Then if that replacement iPhone has the same problem with the coating flaking off, you would have justification for asking Apple to replace the black iPhone with a white one.
    By the way, we are all just fellow users here, so making blanket statements about Apple's overall product quality and threatening to stop buying Apple products really is of no help to anyone.
    Regards.
