RE: wireless charging

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi.  A couple of curiosity questions about wireless charging.

 

1.

.  Does using wireless charging use more or less electricity  than plugging in 
a power cord to charge an iPhone?

 

2.Are there any risks of receiving an electric shock while touching the 
charge pad if your hands are damp?

Thanks.

 

Mike

Hi,

 

Can someone tell me which IPhones can be wirelessly charged or maybe it would 
be easier to list the older phones that cannot? Can the new SE2020 use a 
wireless charger?

 

Thanks.

How can I sync my Outlook 2010 contacts that are on my computer to my new iPhone 8?

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 5 to an iPhone 8.  I want to copy my
contacts from Outlook 2010 to my new iPhone 8 contacts.  But when I tried to
sync my Outlook 2010 contacts using iTunes 12.7.1.14, none of my Outlook
2010 contacts are copied to my iPhone.  

I open iTunes, then activate the iPhone button, then tab to the summary tab,
and then arrow down to the Info tab.  Then I tab to the sync button just
after contacts and press enter or space.  Then I tab to the main sync button
and press enter or space.  I hear the tone that syncing is complete, but I
have no contacts on the phone.  After I tab to the sync button for contacts
the next tab takes me to a button that tells me that my contacts are being
synced to my iPhone over the air from iCloud.  But the only thing I have
ever done with iCloud is create an id

I will appreciate any assistance you can offer.

Mike

RE: Convince me guys IOS or no IOS

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

The reasons Android phones can be different is because they are running 
different versions of Android.  The same is true for iphones using different 
releases of IOS.  There are a lot of differences how things are done between 
IOS 7 and IOS 10.

And as someone already stated, all Androids are different, all iPhones are all

iDevices.

RE: MYSMS

[Mike O'Brien]

 

Hi

 

You don’t need an app to send a text message from a computer to a Phone
.  The capability of emailing a text message to a phone has been available for 
some time.  Of course the text message rules about length etc. still apply.  To 
send an email as text message from a computer to a phone, address the email to 
complete-phone-mumber@carior-suffix.  For example, to email a text message to a 
Verizon.com phone for phone number (123) 456-7890 use an address of 
1234567...@vtext.com.  Note that some carriers have different suffixes for 
plain text messages and mms messages with media such as pictures attached.  You 
can find a list of the carrier suffixes to use at

 1.Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel.

 Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software

 1.iTunes
 2.Apple Software Update
 3.Apple Mobile Device Support
 4.Bonjour
 5.Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)

 Don't uninstall these components in a different order, or only 
 uninstall some of them. Doing so might have unintended affects.

When I go to iTunes, preferences, devices and tab to the list of backups,

4. Select the one you want, then tab to Delete and activate  it, confirm and
it's gone. Reopeat until all old backups you don't want are gone or delete
all of them and then right away do a new backup of your phone of course
after you first transfer all purchases and do a sync. I recommend you do an

Confusion over syncing outlook contacts

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

I'm setting up a new iPhone 5C running IOS 7.1.1 for my wife.  I have seen
messages on this list, and read in the Getting Started with the iPhone NBP
book you must use iCloud with the iCloud Control Pannel to sync contacts
from the computer to the phone.  I have set up the phone to use iCloud, but
I do not have the iCloud Control Pannel.  But when I was in the phone
settings and on the Info tab of iTunes 11.2, there is a setting to sync
contacts.  So I checked it and then synced the phone.  After syncing, it
appears that all of the Outlook contacts are now on the phone.  Can anyone
clarify?

fact that you are told that the bill is the front or back.  I don't know why
this would be important but, you have a choice.  The only thing I am not

on it. By default, show settings is turned off. If one toggles it on,
within the Eyenote app there will be a settings button that one can select
speech, tones, or vibration. This feature use to be in the older versions of
Looktel Money Reader. To me, it's important that this app has a choice in

Hi listers,

 

I also tried out this app and at first it didn't seem to work.  I then
noticed that no matter how dark my space the light on the phone did not come
on.  with look tell Money reader the flash comes on when needed so the bill
is identified no matter what the light conditions.  Once I moved to a bright
area the app began to work similar to looktel. 

 

I thought it was interesting that it identified the front or back of the
bill but then I realized that I could not imagine when I would actually need
to know this.  

 

Having the app work in all light conditions would be a welcome improvement
for those not using the looktel app.

happening.  So, out of curiosity, I pointed the camera at a bill and iNote

iPhone encrypted backups

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

I backup my iPhone 5 to my computer using iTunes.  So when I connect the
iphone to my computer, iTunes starts and automatically backs up the phone.
I like to create an encrypted backup for both security and it will backup
email passwords.  So my first question is if I do an encrypted backup, are
the subsequent automatic backups also encrypted.  If not is there any way to
make the automatic backups encrypted.  My second question, is there a way to
keep multiple backups in Itunes.  When I go to device preferences , I only
ever see the latest backup.

Thanks.

RE: Syncing an iPhone on a different computer?

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

Thanks for your reply.  But when you said you can sync your device with as
many computers as you own, were you referring to syncing with iTunes or
iCloud?  I am syncing with iTunes, and when I told iTunes to sync, I Got the
following warning, from which I ran away quickly.

The iPhone Mike's iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. 
Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?
An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and 
syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this
iTunes 

 So back to my question, can an iPhone be synced to theoriginal iTunes
library on another computer?

Thanks

You can only sync your device with 1 account but you can sync your device
with as many computers as you own.  I have my iPhone 4 syncing with my XP
Netbook and my Windows 7 Laptop. I use my iTunes accountwhere my iPhone 4 is

 Hi

 I know that you are only supposed to sync an iPhone with a single iTunes.
 But, my main Windows 7 computer where I sync the phone is awaiting a new
 hard drive.  So, can I safely copy a backup if the iTunes library to 
 another
 Windows XP computer , point iTunes to that library, and then sync the 
 phone
 on that computer?  Is there anything else that would need to be copied to
 the second computer?

 Thanks.

At Bat and mlb.com

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

I thought I had read on this list several months ago that if you had a
mlb.com account, you could listen to games on the iPhone without purchasing
a separate At Bat subscription.  I have had a mlb.com subscription for as
long as it has been around.  So I downloaded and installed At bat, read the
help, and did the steps to create an user id and password using my mlb.com
user id and password.  I just installed the update to At Bat this morning.
So when I open At Bat, and double tap login, it asks me to log in using my
mlb.com user id and password.  When I enter the user id and password and
double tap the log in or go button, it tells me you don't have access to
this feature, see inapp purchases.  To be able to listen to games on both
the iPhone and the pc, do you have to purchase subscriptions to both
services, or can you do this only purchasing one.  If you can do this using
only one, which one would that be.

Thanks.

Hi

As has been said, that's the default for gMail.  But if you want to see your
own messages, edit your account settings and put recent: (that's recent
followed by a colon) right before your gMail user name.  You will then
receive a copy of every message you send through gMail.

RE: iPhone cases with belt clip and rubber shell - was - Re: How many folks carry their iPhone without a case?

[Mike O'Brien]

Hi

When I got my iPhone 5 several months ago, I found the MiniSuit Clipster
Combo Case with Kick Stand + Holster Belt Clip for Apple iPhone 5 (ATT,
Verizon, Sprint and Unlocked Models)- Black on amazon.com.  It sells for
about $10.  It is a hard shell that covers the back and the edges of the
iphone.  It is not bulky, and when you put it into the holster for the belt
clip, the screen is also covered.  There are also openings in the back left
side, top and bottom to reveal the lense, buttons and ports.  But
unfortunately, I think it only comes in black.  You can find it at:

Hi, unfortunately I don't know of other cases other than Otter Box and
Griffin cases which have belt clips. Also, those are the thicker cases If
you want something which doesn't add too much bulk I would be surprised if
it came with a belt clip.  However with all that, I could be wrong.

Right now, I have an OtterBox Defender, and I love it. It's starting to show
its age rather spectacularly, though. There are some chips in the hard
plastic shell, and the headphone port cover is dangling from one side. I'm
looking to replace it, but I think I might want something a little less
bulky. Don't get me wrong, I love my OtterBox, but it can get kind of in the
way sometimes. What are some good cases that have clips and rubber shells?

 I'm coming in very late on this, but I personally like the TPU s-pattern
or S-line cases. They are form-fitting, add little bulk, and have grips on
the sides to help your phone not slip through your sweaty fingers. Plus, and
this is my personal favorite, they come in different colors. Regardless of
whether you are blind or not, I personally feel that colors do matter in
this world. So, since I like Blues and Purples, I have cases of these colors
to match my personality. Plus, TPU is a kind of plastic which helps in cases
where the phone may drop onto the ground. yes, I know there are web sites
which say you don't need cases, but I choose to have one. I'm no longer in
the army camp of those who feel they need a life proof case, or an Otter Box
case for their every day needs, but the TPU cases do help my peace of mind.
I also have a Speed Dots Screen Protector but that's more for typing speed
over any sort of protection.

 Me too,

 I use my 5 naked. ;) No cases here.

 I do carry the phone in my purse when in transit and use it for work /
personal every day so when not in my purse, it's always out and about. :)
When at work it's always plugged into my Mac for development so it is always
charging as well.

 For myself, I both like the Mophi products as well as the Bumpers from
Apple.

 I did use a Bumper on my 4 and 4S and a Mophi Juicepack Air for my 3GS.

 For the 5, I've thought of also getting a Bumper but just haven't gotten
'round to it yet. :) I think the Bumpers are a great idea as they don't
compromise the phone's appearance and do keep it from accidentally sliding
off of a table etc.

 As well, I do agree with others here that using a case is cool too. 
 Since the iDevices are really important life-changing little 
 beasties, I.E. since your phone is valuable to you for more reasons 
 than just the convenience of having a phone, being careful is 
 certainly a wise idea. :)

 For now though I just use it without a case.

RE: Sat nav Solution.

Hi

 

Sendero is the company that developed the navigation component of MobileGeo.
They say they will be demonstrating their new Seeing Eye GPS application for
the iPhone at the upcoming CSUN conference, , Jan. 27th through Mar. 1st.  I
am assuming that this is the same App that is being discussed in this
thread.  But I don't know the availability date.

Hi Kawal,

 

That sounds very nice, but who is this company and from where do you get the
information?

the first quarter of our new financial year is a rather vague time frame.
If their financial year follows the calendar then do they mean it will be
out by March (in 4 or 6 weeks) or will it be out a year from now?

Until I find out a bit more this doesn't get me very excited, but I
certainly would be if I knew something with a full feature set similar to
MobileGeo was on the 4-6 months horizon. Of course it would be nice to know
if they already have a price range in mind.

I did various google searches on Sat Nav Solution and Satellite
Navigation Solution combined with Sendero and iPhone and found nothing
other than Sendero LookAround and a few references to the Sendero/Seeing-Eye
project.

Sieghard
