WHY---------???? WHY can't I use my bluetooth for voice commands with the driods?

I purchased a droid1 and found out very quickly that my bluetooth COULD NOT BE USED WITH THE DROID OR VOICE COMMANDS-----IT IS NOT A HANDS FREE DEVICE!! I paired my bluetoot with the droid and expected to make calls as I did with my OLDER phone but NOPE-----IT WILL NOT WORK-------YOU HAVE TO "TOUCH" THE DROID TO MAKE A CALL BEFORE YOU CAN TALK VIA BLUETOOTH! WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING? A basic function (AND LEGAL) like voice command calling wasn't put into these driods? PLeaase..........what--why-----how-----could they overlook such a basic and legal requirement (MOST STATS REQUIRE HANDS FREE OPERATION)..............I'm baffled and extremely disappointed because I can not use any of these 'smartphones'=droids.
Be very careful before you buy one without being informed of this flaw--------the DROIDS are not HANDS FREE DEVICES--------sadly.

I had the same shock when purchasing 2 new Droids less than a month ago. The store rep emphatically told me that Bluetooth dialing worked but of course that was wrong. The Froyo 2.2 version corrects that -- if you haven't received an update notice from Verizon you can get it here: http://www.droid-life.com/2010/08/03/manual-android-2-2-update-for-motorola-droid/ and do it yourself. it's pretty simple.

I'm have iPhone's & iPads with AT&T. I want to change to Verizon. Can I still use my old iPhone and iPads with the new company?

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID. When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data. If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account. If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

What can't I use my iPad in another house with the same internet service as mine

Why can't I use my iPad in another location that has same internet service. Comcast. As me

Presumably, if that house was a wifi network, and you know the wifi networks password so you can connect, you can use it. Does the homeowner have a secured network? Have you asked them for the password to connect?

Can no longer use CD/DVD for installing drivers with bootcamp?

So I was about to use bootcamp to install Windows 7 yesterday, but then I saw that I needed either a CD/DVD or a USB drive for the support software (already have a dvd with Windows 7). Instead I updated the OS and then planned to try again today after returning home with a blank CD. But now there is nothing in the description that says I can use a CD, only stuff about USB drives. I tried going through the process anyway, with a blank cd inserted, but I got a popup telling me to insert a USB drive. Am I going crazy or was this previously an option that has now been removed with the last update? I have found images online that mention CDs/DVDs, but the attached screenshot clearly does not mention it. If its of any relevance, I am on a Retina Macbook Pro, using an external dvd drive. Also I actually don't own a flash drive, and although they're pretty cheap these days it seems silly to have to buy one just for this.

Just download the Bootcamp drivers separately and then load them once you've installed Windows on the system. It's really the same steps, just when you do it yourself, it's not part of this wizard.

Use Siri and older voice command at the same time?

Hi all,
It is my understanding that Siri cannot be used simultaneously with the older version voice command.
If I wish to use the older voice command function, I have to deactivate Siri, which is terribly incovenient.
Is there any way I can use both simultaneously?

No, it's not normal. You should be able to send and receive from any mail account set up on your device, whether the account is also set up on another device or not. Have you tried sending email from your @me account on your Mini? Does that work properly?
Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try on your Mini:
On Safari and go to www.apple.com to confirm that your connection to the internet is working properly
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Fetch New Data, make sure Push is set to On, tap Advanced at the bottom, tap your @me.com address and make sure Push is checked.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Mail section) and confirm that you have selected your @me.com address as your defalut.

HT3131 In terms of cooling, is it OK to use demanding applications for extended periods with the internal display of my MacBook Air closed?

I'm using a Thunderbolt display when in the office and often run one or two Parallels VMs concurrently, which makes the fans spin a lot. I'm worried that the 13" 2011 MacBook Air isn't being cooled enough with the lid closed so I tend to open it up - am I just being paranoid?

The cooling of the MacBook Air is accomplished via an internal fan which draws in and exhausts air in the rear gap area below the hinge. This gap remains unimpeded whether the computer is open or closed. In fact, Apple has specifically designed the notebook to operate in a "normal" open screen configuration, as well as a closed (clamshell) mode. As long as you retain an adequate clearance and allowance for clean cool airflow at the rear of the Air, there is no recognized issue of whether the unit will adequately cool.
This does not preclude that the user can also "enhance" cooling with external conduction cooling devices designed to extract heat from the heat conductive aluminum case But in normal circumstances it is not required, nor even mentioned by Apple that it is necessary to do so. In fact, Apple even sells a stand for operating the MBA in a closed, vertical position for space savings. This does in face preclude use of a cooling pad, and still it is not a problem.
While there may be those who observe that the open case affords more surface area for direct case to atmosphere heat transfer, one must also recognize that this is probably more than offset by the fact that the device does not generate extra heat supporting a operting and lit display when closed.

How can I open another iCloud account for each devices with the same apple id

my family has 2 iPhones 1 iPad 1 Macbook and 1 iMac. I had all the devices set up with one iCloud under 1 Apple ID. Now things are getting so mixed up with pictures, videos, calendar, notes and reminders etc. 1 iPhone is also unable to sync due to not having enough storage for all our devices. Someone from Genius Bar said we can have iCloud for each device under 1 Apple ID. I backed up all pics. videos notes important docs to my iMac and MacBook then I turned off all iCloud in all of the devices now I need help to create a new iCloud account at least for my 3 mobile devices to end all the confusion. every time I try to click the button "set up iCloud on this device" I always go back to apple site with step by step by step instruction but I keep going around in a loop. Please help

I'm not sure what they told your at the Apple store, but each Apple ID can only create a single iCloud account. If you want separate accounts for all these devices, they will have to be created using separate IDs. Note: you can do this and still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account. The iCloud ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for other services.
To create an account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with a different Apple ID. If you want to migrate a copy of the current iCloud data to the different accounts, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the devices keeping the current account will not be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

3-D is very memory intensive.
System requirements | Photoshop
Mac OS
Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
Mac OS X v10.7, v10.8, or v10.9
2 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
3.2 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with 16-bit color and 512 MB of VRAM (1 GB recommended)**
OpenGL 2.0–capable system
Internet connection and registration are necessary for required software activation, membership validation, and access to online services.*
** 3D features are disabled and some Mercury Graphics Engine enhanced features may not work with less than 512 MB VRAM. Read the Help article.
Bottom line, you don't have enough VRAM

Why can't we use debit card for Ask To Buy on iOS8?

Loving the family sharing in iOS 8 but one thing that I don't like is you have to add a CREDIT card in order to add a child?? I tried adding my 11 year old daughter and it told me I couldn't because I had a debit card on my account. I don't have any credit cards and don't plan on getting one. Why can't we use debit which is what I've been using since I've had my itunes account for years?

I'm not sure that Apple have said why (these are user-to-user forums), the only thing that I've seen only mentions using a credit card : http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/
Up to six people in your family can share purchases from iTunes, iBooks, and the App Store without sharing accounts. Pay for family purchases with the same credit card and approve kids’ spending right from a parent’s device.
You can try leaving feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
