Auto startup of iTunes

2012-03-27 Thread Peter Crisp
My Wife's iPhone4s when connected up to her Macbook (Snow Leopard), doesn't automatically initiate the startup of iTunes. It does however initiate the startup of iPhoto - i think because it detects new photos on it not previously synced. Is there a setting somewhere to make iTunes auto start

Hi Martin, I'm using a 3G sim in a third generation iPad. I was told by someone in a Telstra shop that Telstra will not be issuing a 4g micro sim for the iPad because our version of the iPad does not support our version of 4g. So wondering if the iPad switches over to the faster network with

What the tech at Telstra couldn't sell you was a 4G LTE contract. However, what you do have is a sim that gets you on the 4G HSPA+ dual carrier network instead. The tech may have called it a 3G sim, but the ITU classifies it as 4G as well. As you say, it is pretty damn fast. Considering my

H. It's kind of everyone splitting hairs. You can call Vivid 4G but it's not great coverage and not great speeds and note really what you expect of 4G. At the end of the day the iPad doesn't support 4G LTE and it will be either the next model(s) or we wait until 2015 when 700MHz
