What's changed between the the 3GS iPhone and the iTouch?

Got a 3GS iPhone to replace my iTouch, but here's what no one ever told me...
I always synced my iTouch at home ( Mac G5 ) , where my full iTunes library resides on an external drive. I used to take my iTouch to my work computer in my office ( Mac G5 ) hook the USB connector to that computer and charge my iTouch and play songs through my big loud computer stereo system. No songs or iTunes data is on my computer at work. It is a work computer. Both machines are set to manually manege everything, and automatic syncing is turned off in the prefs of both iTunes apps.
My new iPhone, however, will not let me play the songs on my work computer. It geys the songs out, and only if I sync it with my empty iTunes library will it let me get to the songs I have loaded on the iPhone, which are ALL SONGS I HAVE PURCHASED CD's of and and made mp3's.
It seems Apple is now dictating how my legitimately purchased music is being used as well.. Is this true, or am I missing something?
If this is a new DRM nonsense built into the iPhone, well fine. Then tell me where I can get a dock that charges the iPhone and has audio and video cables to hook up to my stereo/AV amp directly.
I tried an earlier dock model that worked on he iTouch, but the 3GS iPhone said it wasn't compatible for playing or charging.
Love the phone, but, come on here... Thanx -KK

Well, I can see how this could work, but It presents a problem for me. A) My iTunes library is approaching 100 gig, and b) I only want to sync up in one location. I know that the external drive can be that location, but...
Here's the thing. I also am a stubborn guy, and when I spend as much money on compter stuff as I do ( I'm surrounded by it ) I don't always want to feel that I need to invent a workaround because I don't fit into the traditional sales model.. I know this is a bit dousche-ie about this, but my big point is that Apple is now telling my how I can use my legitimately purchased music. It makes me want to go out and pirate stuff just out of spite. But instead, I'll play by the rules and that buys me the God given right to ***** about little things like spending more money for a device and getting less service back in return!
I think the dock will work OK for me, but thanks for the feedback.
SoapBox now put away...

  • What are differences between the target tablespace and the source tablespac

    The IMPDP command create so manay errors. But the EXAMPLE tablespace is transported to the target database successfully. It seems that the transported tablespace is no difference with the source tablespace.

    Short of trying to then reverse-engineer the objects that are in the dump file (I believe Data Pump export files contain some XML representations of DDL in addition to various binary bits, making it potentially possible to try to scan the dump file for the object definitions), I would tend to assume that the export didn't include those type definitions.
    Since it looks like you're trying to set up the sample schemas, is there a reason that you wouldn't just run the sample schema setup scripts on the destination database? Why are you using Data Pump in the first place?

  • Big Colour and detail changes between Original Nikon RAW files and the images created on the Preview page!

    Big Colour and detail changes between Original Nikon RAW files and the images created on the Preview page! Yes there are distinct visual changes when I preview my Nikon NEF RAW Files.Please note I do not use iPhoto at all.
    If you view it as a contact sheet straight from the original folder there are no alterations but the moment you double click and want to 'Preview' it, this new preview page introduces very noticeable distortions : lighter shading goes missing and colour goes darker e.g orange turns red and mid blue goes deep blue!  Alarmingly the little column on the left of the preview page showing the collection shows the original file colours and then after a few seconds show the new distorted image...you can see this visible change and it takes place after a few seconds once you double click! Also if you use Apple's 'Cover Flow' to preview, this function will replace your original RAW file with the new 'altered preview' image!
    I have raised this with Apple but they have yet to reply...has anyone ever experienced this? I have used my Mac book for 18months only noticed it about 5 days ago!
    I went to Apple store and we tried it in other laptops and Macs and it happened to all of them so we think this is a software issue and not down to the laptop.
    Any help is much appreciated!

    Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.

    I would suggest you try to update your iOS 8.0.2 to the latest iOS 8.1.0 with iTunes on your computer. Don't try to do the update on your iPhone, it takes time and some error always occur. After updating to iOS 8.1.0, if your iPhone can't restart properly, try Wondershare Dr.Fone for iOS trial version. It will say that your iPhone is not in normal mode, offering you the option 'restart the device'. Just click the button to let your iPhone restart.

  • Changes between MII 12.0.2 and 12.0.9 (patch 7)

    Hi,
    We've upgraded one of our non-production MII environments from MII 12.0.2 (build 88) to 12.0.9 (build 23), and some of our dashboard apps are not working correctly.
    One issue that I've tracked down sounds similar to this post: [Re: java.io.EOFException]
    But is different.  We have a BLS that has a local property (called Hold_qty) that acts as an accumulator of a QUANTITY value that is returned in multiple rows from the associated SQL query.
    Under 12.0.2, Hold_qty is defined with data type String.  There is a repeater, with an assignment that assigns Local.Hold_qty the value of Local.Hold_qty + Order_table.Output(/Row/QUANTITY).   This worked fine on 12.0.2, as the String would be converted to integer automatically (with value 0), then would accumulate the QUANTITY values.
    Now in 12.0.9 it is no longer working and the Hold_qty value is NA after the repeater is done.  It seems that MII is no longer converting the string type to integer before attempting the addition, thus the addition is attempted with Hold_qty having string NULL value, instead of integer Zero value.  Because it is null, then MII calculates the result to NA.  The MII manual does state that "Calculations that include null values return a value of NA". 
    My question, is why did the precedence of type conversion vs. property evaluation change between the versions?  Is this change documented somewhere?  I didn't have very good luck finding a list of changes in all of the versions between 12.0.2 and 12.0.9.  Can someone point out where I can find such a list?  I searched SAP notes and it seems that only some of the SPs between 2 and 9 have Notes but not all of them. 
    I changed the data type of Local.Hold_qty to Integer in the BLS and now it works correctly on 12.0.9, but I'm still curious as to why the change, as using Strings instead of integers and allowing the type conversion was a recommended approach in at least one post in the past: [Integer with Value of NA??]
    Thank you and best regards!

    Hi Jeremy,
    Thank you very much for providing the list of notes - that is VERY helpful.  I reviewed the list and did see a couple that seem to be related to the issue that we are seeing.
    Specifically:
    Note 1168706 which is included in SP04.  But this fix seems to imply that what we were doing in SP02 should still work.
    Note 1435052 which is SP09 patch 4, says:
    "3- In a MII Transaction, if you have an XML Document with a field of type integer, and when you assign it to "nullnumber", it doesn't show up in the Data as "NA". But it displays a number eg. "-2147483648".
    This isn't exactly what we are seeing, but seems very closely related, so perhaps the fix for this issue is what is causing our problem?  Perhaps this fix introduced a new bug?
    What is the proper means of reporting a potential bug?  Should I wait for confirmation in this forum?
    Thank you again so much for your help.  As a final suggestion, since your list of MII releases and the associated SAP Note numbers is so useful, would it be possible for you to create a sticky thread that lists all releases (with associated SAP note numbers)?  Or maybe this is overkill due to the way they are listed in the download section of Service Marketplace?  If so, please disregard.
    Best regards,
    Steve Christensen

  • I cannot sync my Notes between my ipad, my iphone and my mac, despite setting Notes to sync with iCloud

    I cannot sync my Notes between my ipad, my iphone and my mac, despite setting Notes to sync with iCloud. Any Suggestion?

    perfect. ok do the following:
    settings > mail, contacts, calendars > go into the exchange account. You should have an email in the account field...[email protected] or [email protected], etc.... I am assuming you don't remember the password to this exchange account so once you know the email, you can go to email providers site and click on forgot password and you will go through the steps to get a new password. Once you do this, you will need to go back into your "exchange account " and the field that has the exchange email > touch the > to open settings. Change the password to your new password you got from above. Once you do this, you can add the exchange account to your ipad and all of your contacts will sync to both devices.
    Please confirm.

  • Getting Big Headache, What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7

    3) What is the difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7.
    4) I have a Flash Lite 3.1 but uninstall information says "Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera Mobile", did you releaase this? Is this an illegal copy? A developer's copy?
    *I don't know exactly where I got it, but I got it from the HTC developer's forum: XDA-developers.com
    *I also use Opera mobile, a web browser for Pocket PC's.
    5) What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera? Is the only difference is that Flash Lite Supports everything flash related, while Flash Lite Opera supports only flash in opera?
    Hi, I don't expect all answers, but I hope someone or someone from adobe support can clear some things up for me.

    The program under my "remove programs" list is specifically called "Adobe Flash Lite for Opera". The XDA forums people said along time ago that it was Flash Lite, and kept calling it Flash Lite, and not Flash Player 7.
    Now what about this:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/version/
    The table shows the differences between FP 7 SDK, FL 2.1, and FL 3.1. And it's quite obvious that FL 3.1 has way more features than Flash Player 7. What does SDK mean? And why are you telling me FP 7 has more features?
    With this information, can you or anyone else provide any more details and clarification?

    hi! i have a iphone 5s in t mobile but now i live in mexico city, what can i do for unlock this iphone and have a signal in telcel, please helpme guys! i lost mi sim

    What do you mean? Your only way to unlock that phone is to have had 40 days continuous service with T-Mobile and then process the unlock through them. If you had an account with T-Mobile you should be able to login and process your unlock. If you did not you can click on the chat program but they are going to tell you the same thing.

  • What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?

    What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?  I've been having to key in changes to both devices because sync doesn't sync. 

    If you really are running Mac OS X 10.7.5 and iOS 6.1.3, you should be able to sync through iTunes, but in current releases you need to use a central contact service like iCloud.
    Did you have it working and then not working, or have you never had it working?
    Are you trying to use iTunes, iCloud, or something else?
