We're back!

2014-10-06 Thread Gordon Smith

 Hello everybody
 Looks like we're back in busition.  I've just had to explain 
the reason for the failure to a couple of clients, and I'm not 
about to do so on list.
 However, suffice it to say that it is now fixed, and we can 
resume discussions where we left ofc.

 Great to be back.
 Kindest regards

How to 'slide to stop'

2014-10-06 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello, 
How do I activate an iPhone App control labeled as “slide to stop”? Double tap 
does not work. Turning off VoiceOver and sliding up, down, left, right with one 
finger or two fingers does not work either. 

How would “slide to stop” work for someone not using VoiceOver? 

the App in question is Runtastic pedometer. On IOS 6 I can use the task 
Switcher to stop the App. I can then restart the App and choose to delete the 
session and then start a new session. On IOS 8 I can still stop the App using 
the App switcher, but on restarting the App it carries on from where it left 
off. I have not yet found a way to reset the step count and miles to zero. 
Hopefully “slid to stop” would do that if I could only activate that control. 

Many thanks for any help.

Can I change the name iTunes gives to my iPhone?

2014-10-06 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello, 
Is it possible to change the iPhone name which iTunes allocates when you first 
set up an iPhone? I ask as I have an iPhone 3GS and an iPhone 5S which have 
confusingly similar names. I would like to change the name allocated to one of 
them. 

Note that when I first connected the iPhone 5S to my iMac I asked it to restore 
the backup of my iPhone 3GS. Maybe that is why they have similar names! 

When I get a decent case for the 5S I will use that by default but will keep 
the 3GS as a backup phone. 

Many thanks.

You should be able to double tap and hold on the slide to stop, then slide your 
finger to the right.
