What will iOS5 features will not be supported on a 3GS?

Everytime a new iOS comes out, the feature set that is supported on the iPhone 3GS gets watered down and watered down.  Yeah yeah yeah, I know I need to update my hardware, but it just isn't in the budget this month.
Other than some of the more obvious things, like Siri and mirroring, what features in iOS5 will not be supported on the iPhone 3GS hardware?  I thought someone would put out a list, but there is nothing in the wild yet.

    No, it does not.  It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer.  The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

    Are they selected to sync?  Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

    What does that have to do with syncing content to the device?  FYI, nothing.

  • What I watch features do not require iPhone 5 or better?

    I Am considering purchase of I watch.  I am trying to find out which features must use a iPhone 5 or better Or do all features an daps require the phone.  Any NGO is welcome.

    Which of course begs the question: Why does one need an iWatch? Is this backup in case the iPhone stops working?
    It is a new world. People don't want to have to fish out their phones or have them always in hand - especially with the new iPhablet. In the new wearables market, the iWatch is always attached to your body. If it needs your attention, it will tap you on the wrist. It serves as your credit card and texting/twitter interface. It will not appeal to many people, but it wasn't designed to.

  • What are the Features of NOT

    I purchased the NOTmad o/s and was curious what are some of the extra features and or difference between that software and creatives.

    For me the killer features are:
    Integration with Explorer</LI>
    Xtreamer, which allows you to control the player from the PC with an excellent interface</LI>
    Playlist sorting and shuffling</LI>
    Ability to copy to PC with completely customisable folder/file filter</LI>
    Stability...</LI>
    I'll probably think of more when I've posted this

  • Are all of the features of OS4 fully supported on a 3GS?

    I'm thinking about purchasing a new black 8 GB iPhone 3GS or a refurbished white 16 GB iPhone 3GS.

    Features that work on 3GS
    1. Multitasking
    2. Folders
    3. Better email system
    4. iBooks
    5. Create playlist (without going through iTunes)
    6. 5x Zoom in option for camera
    7. Picture sorting based on where you taken that picture
    8. Home Screen wall paper
    9. Spell checking (email & notes & more...)
    and much more...

  • TS1363 no matter what I do Itunes will not recognize my ipod nano..I've tried everything and all directions

    No matter what I try i can not get itunes to recognize my ipod nano when I connect.  I have tried multiple trouble shooting fixes on the site.

    While Apple may request a Pay-Per-Incident, if it is determined that your device has a hardware issue, that PPI will bewailed after troubleshooting is completed. Or, you can request that they waive that if you've already done a lot of troubleshooting.  The PPI is only for issues that a user could resolve on their own but want Apple to provide a walkthrough over the phone.  You can get free support by going to an Apple Store instead, for example, as well.

  • My iPhone 5 got problem when connect with lighting cable, this will keep pop up message "this accessory may not be supported"

    My iPhone 5 got problem when connect with lighting cable, this will keep pop up message "this accessory may not be supported", I can't charge or sync at all. I tried plug and unplug many time, still can't detect/charge my iPhone5, but sometime will 'lucky' that can connect to my iTunes and charge battery…
    This message will auto pop up also when I don't have plug anything in my iPhone 5, It is very annoying…
    The lighting cable is original and now i'm using OS 7.0.4 / iTunes is 11.1.3
    What I can do to fix this problem? Thank you.

    I would try using another cable you can likely borrow one to test from somebody
    if it's the same then likely the connector in your iphone have been damaged

  • List of features will work/not work in SRST

    Hello Team,
    Can I get the link from the Cisco site which will work and will not work( A complete feature list) to refere and inform to the business teams who can take the decision for a Migration Project, Thanks!!!
    Regards,
    Bala                  

    There are two modes of SRST - SRST itself (1) and Unified CME in SRST mode (2). Mode (2) provides more features for call-processing. Mode (1) is a bit simplier to configure.
    According to SRND:
    Unified CME in SRST Mode
    When Unified CME is used in SRST mode, it provides more call processing features for the IP phones
    than are available with the SRST feature on a router. In addition to the SRST features such as call
    preservation, auto-provisioning, and failover, Unified CME in SRST mode also provides most of the
    Unified CME telephony features for the SCCP phones, including:
    • Paging
    • Conferencing
    • Hunt groups
    • Basic automatic call distribution (B-ACD)
    • Call park, call pickup, call pickup groups
    • Overlay-DN, softkey templates
    • Cisco IP Communicator
    • Cisco Unified Video Advantage
    • Integration with Cisco Unity with MWI support at remote sites, with distributed Microsoft Exchange or IBM Lotus Domino server
    You can find additional information about SRST modes and features in SRND.
    Kind regards,
    Andrew C.

  • No matter what I do iTunes will not save my card details.

    Dear all,
    No matter what I do iTunes will not save my card details. Everytime I go to buy something it says "Your account information has changed" and takes me to the card details page. I update the card details correctly and click done and it takes me back to the store. I then go to buy something and it comes up with "Your account information has changed" and sends me back to the card details page with all the updated details I put in missing. This makes it completely impossible for me to use the iTunes store.
    Please help!
    Many thanks!

  • What version of firefox will support mp4 video tags without plug ins or extensions?

    I have a web site that my users upload mp4 videos to my website. I use html 5 and use the video tags type movie/mp4.
    The only browser that has worked without any add ins, plug ins or extensions is safari 4.x and safari 5.x with quicktime. What version of firefox will support playing mp4 videos without any add ins or extensions?

    That will probably not happen if there are codecs used that require a license.

  • After upgrading to iOS5 I can not auto download anything. The buttons will not switch to ON. Any thoughts?

    After upgrading to iOS5 I can not set the store to auto download anything. The buttons will not stay in the ON position. Any thoughts?

    I experienced this one time and this is what I did and it worked for me. You can try it as well and see of it works for you.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap on your ID and sign out. Restart your iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign In. Then go to automatic downloads and try again.

  • After years of no problems I can't print photos. When I select print I get the message "There are no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed this feature will be unavailable.  What are themes? How do I install them?

    After years of no problems I sddenly can't print photos. When I select print I get the message "There are no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed this feature will be unavailable.  What are themes? How do I install them? Why has this problem suddenly arisen?

    Re-installing does not affect your Library in any way. You don't delete it, only the app.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

    When I connect my ipod to 2 different Mac computers, it will charge but is not showing up in itunes for sync. What happened?

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your Mac? Have you tried a different USB cable?
    What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the Mac?

    Has this iPod ever worked on this Mac or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
