Why should i get 3G?
I am debating on purchasing an IPAD2 or a macbook pro. Yes, they are completely different. I'm leaning towards the ipad2 right now, but am confused on the 3G. It already has wifi, why do I need the 3G?
The built in map program also uses the gps, if itis available. The other option, not mentioned in the discussion, is a wifi only pad. If you have an iphone or droid that can tether the 3g signal, you get the 3 g protability with the 130 buck up front cost. You are going to pay for the data either way, check with your carrier. But if you will only need the 3 g as a back up, the wifi only is a good option. If your daily routine is on the road, you probably want the 3 g for the pure convenience.

What does an apple Tv do? why should i get one? are they any good? how do you use them?
Any good? Im a grumpy "doesn't like anything person" AppleTV is far and above worth the $100 cost of same.
Tons of free content. You can wifi beam your screen to your TV via the AppleTV, beam movies, youtube content on the screen.
AppleTV doesnt even have a bottom, plug it into the wall, plug HDMI cable from IT to your Tv set.....
3 mins to set it up with remote and then its all cruising from there.
If you get one, youll only be upset that you didnt buy one earlier. -

WHY should I get an iPhone NOW?
I've been a Verizon customer forever and I've been DYING for an iPhone. So all my waiting has paid off, right? Why hasn't Verizon sent me any REAL info on the iPhone that's going to be available to me. I'm kind of disappointed. It's been a huge push to sell me an iPhone, but I get no details. I have plenty of questions that Verizon has not seemed to answer for me.
Everything I've been reading tells me that the iPhone that will be available for me (iPhone 4) will NOT be compatible on the Verizon 4G network. Is this true?
I'm also hearing that Apple will be rolling out an iPhone (iPhone 5?) in June or July that WILL work on the 4G network. If this is true, then WHY in the world would I spend $200 or $300 NOW on a phone that will be obsolete in 4 to 5 months?
Believe me, I REALLY want an iPhone. I've been waiting patiently for YEARS for this to happen. But I want to spend my money wisely and not end up with an obsolete phone soon after I get it.
Can someone tell me if this info is accurate and tell me why I should get an iPhone now instead of waiting a few more months and get a better phone that will work on a better network?
Thanks

If this is true, then WHY in the world would I spend $200 or $300 NOW on a phone that will be obsolete in 4 to 5 months? i wouldn't. i'll be getting a droid next month that is 4g. apple has shown no desire to work on current technology. also, NOBODY knows when apple will roll out an iphone5 or even if it will be 4g capable.
Believe me, I REALLY want an iPhone. I've been waiting patiently for YEARS for this to happen. But I want to spend my money wisely and not end up with an obsolete phone soon after I get it. then don't get the ip4. it's 8 months old, which is a lifetime for smartphones.
Can someone tell me if this info is accurate and tell me why I should get an iPhone now instead of waiting a few more months and get a better phone that will work on a better network? you shouldn't get one now. htc has a droid coming within the next month that is 4g AND can do voice and data over the network simultaneously. samsung and motorola have 4g droids with dual core processors coming out in july. these devices will blow away the ip4. and who knows....maybe by then apple will shed some light on the 4g issue, if they ever feel like building a 4g capable device. i'm waiting. if you are into the latest technology, then the ip4 is not for you.
Thanks

Why am i getting PLS-00306 here ??
Hi,
I am on Oracle 10.1 on Solaris.
I am running a very simple code,
set serveroutput on size 1000000
begin
for i in ( select index_name from user_indexes where table_name='BALANCES' )
loop
dbms_output.put_line ( i ) ;
end loop ;
end ;
Why should I get error,
dbms_output.put_line( i ) ;
ERROR at line 4:
ORA-06550: line 4, column 6:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'PUT_LINE'
ORA-06550: line 4, column 6:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
For that matter, instead of dbms_output.put_line, if we put anything that expacts a varchar2 value, its giving the error. Does my cursor not return a verchar2 ?
Please convey.
Thanks and Regardshey
u need use like this
begin
for i in ( select index_name from user_indexes where table_name='BALANCES' )
loop
dbms_output.put_line( i.index_name ) ;
end loop ;
end ;
since i variable is not of number or character type
its a binary_integer
i won't have any meaning here so use i.index_name
if u want to know the count then better use a variable say
counter
counter:=0
for i in (....)
loop
dbms_output.put_line(counter);
end loop
end; -
I have a question...how would you convince someone that they need the new iphone 4? I'm looking to buy a new phone but why should i get the new iphone?
I am not sure how many people are going to be interested in "pleading the case". No offence, but I'm not about to have sleepless nights on whether you decide to buy an iPhone.
Surely the lovers of all the phones are going to tell you how wonderful they all are. You'd be better off looking at some reputable sites which carry reviews of phones - to see how well they actually work and which ones offer the features you want. -
Assuming texting is optional in the service plan, why should I get it? I don't understand why people do texting. Why not just talk? I haven't had a cell phone before.
I think it's just popular with them because they would rather chat...than actually talk...and they can do it without anyone listening in on their conversation. They also love to exchange pictures. I am also finding that a lot of adults would rather text than talk. I personally would rather talk, but I do use texting now more than I ever use to. It is a quick way of communicating a short message and sometimes if you forget to say something in a phone call...you can just text it, rather than call back. Or if you want to hit the spouse up with a few items to get from the grocery store...just text it and they'd be less likely to forget. It's also a way to send the same message to more than one person. I definitely use it to communicate with my kids too. They shoot me a text saying they're home from school...or to pick them up at a certain time, because I can not always answer the phone at work.

i have been using an ipad for songs, apps, etc, i now am migrating to a mac book, my question is, i have been using my wifes apple id for all of our purchases, sharing, etc. now that i have a laptop, i am wondering, why should i get my own user id or why would i not just continue on using our common id?
she worries about us taking up too much space in the cloud, which i am not using yet but will learni dont know why you would make a separate account either if you have been getting on fine before, unless you need to talk to your wife with iMessage or something
if you do run out of cloud storage it's probably cheaper to just upgrade it than make your own apple id and have to buy everything again -
hi. i have been on Android, well since beginning. i dont like the pricing of apple products. they are too expensive. im student thats why
also dont like iTunes.
but i HATE android LAG! i have had Snapdragon 805 Note 4 and it LAGS LIKE SHIZ! HATE THAT!
sold the Note 4 yesterday. already own Nexus 5.
now i think its time to get Apple.
i need a tablet. i have TAB S and this iPad Air 2 in my eyes. AIR 2 sweeps floor with Tab S i know.
can some one convince me why should i get Air 2? i have few questions i need answer to.
1- how is battery life? i usually need a lot of it.
2- how is internet browsing? is it good? i have heard that its not good looking cause of that aspect ratio.
3- how to transfer files to and from Air 2 WITHOUT iTUNES? i dont like iTunes, cause it runs in the background in my PC and really just dont need it. i simply hate it.
4- can i download torrents to this Air2?
5- also can i use data from the 4G Air 2 and make or receive calls and messages from 4G variant?
and over all, is it any better than Tab S? how is UI, do people really get bored from plain UI? can i do any modifications if i like? i do a lot of mods in my android phones and tabs!
Remember guys its my first time with Apple thats why asking so much questions. pls answer me. i need to get it but first i need to know these things i asked from genuine users like yall here.
thanks in advance1. The iPad Air 2 has a new Battery that promises longer battery life. But of course that will depend on what you do with it. Battery intensive activities like games, and video playback will use more battery than regular activities like browsing or email answering.
2. Not sure what Aspect ratio would do to internet browsing. As long as the website is built correctly it will adapt to the screen.
3. The iPad does not have a user accessible file system. You can use cloud services, like iCloud Drive, or Google Drive, Dropbox etc... to get files to and from the iPad through Apps that can access these services. Alternatively other Apps exist that will let you upload files directly to the App through a browser on your computer. But for most transfers iTunes is required.
4. No. Torrents and torrent Apps are not allowed in the store outside of BitTorrent's Sync for Image shack
5. You can only make and receive cell calls and text messages on the iPad if you own an iPhone in conjunction with the iPad. Otherwise no. 4G is strictly for Internet access, not Phone service.
I like the UI, to me its not boring, its perfect for what you need to do with it, but YMMV. To each their own. The iPad is not really customize-able directly. It requires a certain degree of hacking, and that is not supported by Apple and as such cannot be discussed here.
If you really want an iPad, I suggest you forget what you do on Android, and take it on its own, because the experience is completely different. Trying to get it to do things you the way you do them on Android will just be an exercise in frustration. Its more of adapt to the way things are done on iOS and you'll see there are many many things you can do with it. -
I get missing plug-in error when opening my online bill which is in PDF format. I am using a 2010 Macbook with the latest version of Safari and Adobe suite installed in my computer. Why do I get this error? What should I do?
In relation to my previous inquiry regarding inability to view a pdf file using Safari...
Is it possible that I can view other online bills from other website but not this particular bill from one specific website?
Sorry if I missed any important point in this article -->Apple Safari 5.1 and Adobe Reader/Acrobat Advisory
Thanks again! -
Why am I getting a false location? I don't live in North Vancouver yet it says that's where I am. It should locate Burnaby. If I search for Burnaby "nothing found" comes up! Why?
As as been announced in the News worldwide, "Maps" is structurally defective and Apple itself is recommending that Users use a different 3rd party map app until they can sort it out.
Hope this helps -
Trying to send mail via Apple's email program (not iCloud off web page) after Mavericks show pane "iCloud cannot connect to account iCloud". Entering p/w restores mail but why should this be happening?
While I am no fan of Best Buy and would not buy a lightbulb from them I doubt you issues have anything to do with your iMac and more to do with your lack of experience and simply getting bad advice. Judging by you post I suspect you have loaded your computer down with a lot of crapware and that has caused it's problems. For example running antivirus apps on a Mac not only is a waste of time, it's a waste of money, system resources and will eventually create more problems that it solves. Please begin educating yourself on the subject by reading Thomas Reeds articles on the subject, Thomas is a frequent and knowledgeable contributor to these forums. You can find his webpage at http://www.reedcorner.net/tech-guides/
The good news is here are absolutely no, zero, zippo viruses for OS X. There are other types of malware available (for example trojans) however they differ greatly from viruses in that the use has to download and install them, whereas viruses do not work that way. OS X is not like MS Windows and is extremely secure.
My suggestion at this point would be to clean your computer of the crapware (including antivirus apps) however before doing so please download and install EtreCheck and post its report. Then we can see how your computer has been configured and begin to give you some advice on the next steps. -
All the my messages from my phone inbox disappeared.Why did it happen and how should i get the messages back?please help
Is the MacBook the computer you have synced with in the past? If not you can use the computer that you have synced with to restore your apps. Are you sure you are using the same Apple ID that you used to purchase the Apps?

Why am I getting two different conversations when the same person txts me and sends me an I message? I thought they should be in the same conversation?
I'm experiencing something similar. My conversations are kept together but if the screen is opened to a conversation and I receive a text from that person it doesn't show up on the screen. The message alert in the upper corner indicates a new text but I have to back out of the screen and go back in to read it.

My IPad is at 92% and I plug it in and it says fully charged but its not. Should I get it looked at ?
The battery meter is really just an estimate
However, you can calibrate it
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
