Will third-party iPhone Downloads and Applications screw up my phone?

If I download a third-party app, such as the iPhone NES emulator, will it screw up my phone and make me restore my phone before I update to a newer software?

As someone who has installed many 3rd party applications (via Installer.app), I can say that it is hit or miss with different apps. There are some applications that are constantly upgraded for bug fixes and other issues, while some apps are still on the first version there were released on.
If you're comfortable with it, just try installing some of the apps and see which ones work for you. If an app freezes, unfreezing is just a 8 second press of the home button away.

  • Will third party software called "Bug me" and "YAPS" work on the Centro?

    I am currently a Tungsten E2 user. I am considering buying a Palm Centro and want to know if the third party programs "Bugme" and "YAPS" work on the new Centro that is offered by Verizon? Secondly does the Centro have the ability to "tap" in letters off the touch screen as the Tungsten can or do I need to push the very tiny buttons on the front of the phone?

    Any 3rd party applications that are designed to work on the Palm OS 5.4.9 should work on the Centro.
    The Graffiti writing utility is not included on the Centro.
    You can check out the user guide for the Centro on the Palm.com website. Go to Palm.com, hover the mouse over the support and downloads link at the top. Select Knowledge Library and on the bottom of the page is a box for solution ID. Enter 20198 and you will get the list of the manuals available. Select the Centro link and you can read all about the Centro and how to setup and use the phone.

    This was strange but has to do with how startup disk and nvram interact
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1795765
    I think your problems were solvable and not that the Sonnet card and 5,1 is not bootable, in fact the 5,1 is easier, there are more supported cards.
    I have the 1,1 where the Sonnet Pro is recommended but for data only and are not bootable because of the 32-bit EFI firmware. NOT the 4,1 and 5,1. The 2008's are problem child and have a mix of PCIe 1.1 slots, first implementation of EFI64 that also has problems. Also the 4,1 has two PCIe 2.x slots 3 and 4 that share a controller but that simply limits bandwidth.
    I would have left the TRIM support and NVRAM changes in Yosemite to a separate thread if you wanted to focus on the Sonnet Tempo Pro support in Mac Pro 2010-12 5,1s.
    Also the make of SSD can vary and they also have their own firmware as do bootable controllers along with the EFI of the Mac, all of which have to work together.  Meaning it might be that Samsung 840 va 840 EVO vs 840 Pro will all be slightly different but my experience is Samsungs work well (as do others like Crucial with the proper firmware - and there was/is an issue with the firmware of the Samsung 840 but not with booting).
    The PCIe card gets seen and treated as external and therefore 'eject' but of course you can't when it is the system boot drive.
    One thing I found last week and meant to mention:  After installing or changing PCIe cards, RESET SMC made all the difference in the world with the long boot delay. Some PCIe cards will add a few seconds, system has to search the device tree which now shows another controller with multiple devices - and sometimes NVRAM and SMC are what I will call "dirty" and need to be rebuilt and reset.

  • Third party dirver in distribution application

    I am not sure how to add Third party dirver in distribution application in LV11 service pack1.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    There are different ways, one that I use successfully in the past is to include the third party driver in the project, include it in your installer and use the "run after install" (I can't remember the exact name of this feature and being at home on my mac I can't check because LabVIEW mac can't build installers) option to launch the installer.
    Other ways would require more work I think, have look here.
    I've look a bit but I couldn't find a good (and recent) white paper about this on NI Knowledge base... can someone find a good white paper?
    Hope this helps

  • Upload Third Party Software Component and assignment to Track

    Hi,
    I created a Track where I have to add a Third-Party Software Component (HMVCGLXBRIDGE.sca).
    How can I upload Third-Party Software Components and make it selectable for adding it to the Track under SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure > Change Management Service > Landscape Configurator > [Track] > Add SCu2026
    THX for any comment
    Regards

    Hi Pascal,
    my structure in detail
    Track: BOM
      Product: SalesBOM
        Software Component: SC_SALESBOM
          Dependencies (Context: BuildTime): BPEM Buildt 7.12, ..., HMVCGLXBRIDGE, ..., VC FREESTYLE KIT 7.12
    --> I added the SC "HMVCGLXBRIDGE" afterwards in the SLD und after an update and synchronisation in CMS it is also not shown
    I checked the HMVCGLXBRIDGE.sca and there are two files in the BUILDARCHIVES folder:
    - test.sap.comhm-vc-glx-bridge.dcia
    - test.sap.comtcvcglxbridgecomp~.dcia
    Furthermore there are this folders:

  • Tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance

    I tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I eventually tried again and was able to contact via "chat" to someone qualified to help. The problem was that in my existing "bridge" - preference was (I think by default) - checked to startup in background on Login. I did not realize this - because I don't think I set it that way in the first place (maybe I did a few years ago) - and I could not see anything in task manager to suggest that bridge was running an application or any process - but when I learned this - I was successful in installing PS CS6.
    Yes, I'm still not on solid ground re: whether or not I want to change from "owning" the tool or renting it -- what concerns me is that is sounds like regardless of users wishes, Adobe is headed in this direction and will eventually make it financially more feasible to go that route. At the moment I think they are "asking" for everyone to get on their bandwagon, but who knows. They have a powerful set of tools, that they continue to support and advance - and along with those development and support costs, they also would like to make a profit - so I understand if their past marketing model is no longer sufficient.
    Thanks again.

  • Why won't iTunes allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created in December of 2014 and January of 2015, but will allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created before December of 2014?

    When I buy and download high resolution music files (FLAC and DSD), I convert them to AIFF files and add them to my iTunes music library.  Specifically, I have been converting DSD64 files to 176.4/24 AIFF files.  These AIFF files (modified in some respects by iTunes) have been synched to my old iPhone 5 and new iPhone 6.  Until December, every 176.4/24 AIFF file played as expected.  In December, I purchased two DSD64 albums, which I converted to 176.4/24 AIFF files using AudirvanaPlus 1.5.  These 176.4/24 AIFF files will not play on either iPhone.  When I converted those DSD64 albums to 88.2/24 AIFF files, they played on both iPhones.  In December, I also purchased several 192/24 FLAC albums and converted them to 192/24 AIFF files using Amarra HiFi.  These 192/24 AIFF files play properly on both iPhones.
    Why won't iTunes allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created in December of 2014 and January of 2015, but will allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created before December of 2014?

    I have a similar problem and have spent three sequential days at the Apple Genius Bar before we were able to exclude most other possibilities and found that certain files (in my case all mp3s from CDs I own) that play just fine in iTunes 11.0.1 and that used to play in iOS 6.0.1 do not play in iOS 6.1. We restored the phone to factory settings and synced only a few of the music files that were problematic. They still did not play. We reproduced the problem on my iPad mini (iOS6.1).
    Apple Telephone Support suggestion was to convert all mp3 files in iTunes to AAC (which according to Apple Website may degrade sound quality). No further suggestions or escalation but a recommendation to place comments on www.apple.com/feedback and, if there are enough complaints, someone at Apple might take an interest in this problem. Something has changed in iOS 6.1 where files that played on prior mobile system software no longer work.
    Apple, please pay attention to this glitch with iOS 6.1.

  • TS1717 My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
    iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
    Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.    

  • HT1692 I use an iPhone 5, and want to sync my phone calendar and contacts with Outlook 7 calendar and contacts; twpo problems--I now get dozens of new calendars every time, and my calendar will not syncd at all.; meaning that date entries on Outlook do no

    I use an iPhone 5, and want to sync my phone calendar and contacts with Outlook 7 calendar and contacts; two problems--I now get dozens of new calendars every time, and my outlook calendar will not sync at all.; meaning that date entries on Outlook do not come across ot iPhone.

    It is unusual for the calendar to sync and not the contacts in Outlook. I've worked with Outlook for years. You didn't answer what computer OS you are using. If it is Windows, have you tried to reset the sync history in iTunes? Do that by opening iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and click on reset sync history. If you have done this and it doesn't help, then we can try and run scanpst.exe on your Outlook file and see if there are any errors. Search your computer for that file, however it normally resides in one of the Microsoft Office folders in the folder Program files. After that, you can see if it will sync.

  • HT4623 I attempted to update the software of my dated iphone 3G. The version 4.2 downloaded and installed successfully on my phone...only to state at the end that "Your SIM does not seem to be supported. Please insert a supported SIM....". I can't even re

    I attempted to update the software of my dated iphone 3G last evening. My phone was constatantly connected with iTunes during the process. The iOS version 4.2 downloaded and installed successfully on my phone...only to state at the end that "Your SIM does not seem to be supported. Please insert a supported SIM....". It gives me no option on the phone other than making an Emergency call. I can't even restart or reboot the phone, or access springboard, etc. The black screen displays a USB cable plugged in to the iTunes logo. Incidentlly, I have been using this SIM for many months on this phone. I also tried inserting other functional SIMs. None of this works. Can someone help please!! Thanks,

    Maybe it was hacked before and now through the update it's locked back to the original carrier.
