Hi,
I took the plunge and got a refurbished series 7.
Janet,
I am so glad that all is working correctly.
As for the volume issue? I have made the same mistake, time and time again.
You are definitely not an idiot.
It sounds as though you reached a very patient and caring Apple rep to whom you
mattered. I am so glad for you.
Thank you for
Glad to hear you figured it out and nothing is wrong with your device.

I don't ignore what people say on lists, but I realize that people are more
likely to complain about a bad experience then they are to let everyone know
that it went OK. I put a lot of weight on the reports from AppleVis and compare
them to how I use my iPhone. I also remember that upgrading
In Settings > Camera the item is "Scan QR Code" and it will say "on" or "off".

You don't have to be that close, I find it's easier to just put the phone on
the page or packaging where the QR code is located and then lift it up and
straight off the page/item slowly. Stop every so often to see if something
happens.

You don’t have to “scan” them.
If the camera is pointed at the QR code, it is automatically recognized. Much
easier than dealing with bar codes.
You can be many feet from the TV to capture a QR code.
Like I said in a previous post, using the Code Scanner app in the Control
Center
Hi everyone,
I have a question for someone who is good at creating shortcuts. Can you have a

Another question: How do you scan them? I assume they are like bar codes, in that you have a general idea where they might be, then move the phone around hoping to hit it. Does it vibrate or beep to let you know when you hit it. Finally, I have heard in tv comercials where they want you to scan
In my opinion; no.
They are for drawing and/or handwriting.
Even with VoiceOver on, I can think of no way to use one that could possibly
justify the price.
If you are good at handwriting, that can be added to the rotor and done with
your finger tip, or the old style stylus which has the kind of

The easiest, in my opinion, is to go to settings, control center, and make sure

That way, you can bring up the control center, and select Code Scanner.

I check to see what people on lists say about updates before updating, have
skipped one or two. I am skipping 16.2; I hear too many minuses about it. I'll
see what people say about the next one, and if it sounds safe enough, I'll skip
16.2.

Janet, keep in mind that this could have just been some glitch which happened
to you and while it's frustrating and unfortunate, there will always be stuff
like that happening.
You may also want to check if your Bose speaker is able to take firmware
updates as updating devices if it can be done
