I just tried it here Alan. I opened an existing .jpg image and put a white 
border around it using the Markup tools, just as you have. You don’t describe 
the process you used to save your file, but I exported mine back as a .jpg 
file, rather than just saving it. The border was still there when I opened it 
the exported version.

Re: IOS 13.1?

Hi Rod and All, 

Been using iOS 13.1 without any problems on my iPad. Currently doing the update 
to 13.1.1 but can’t report on it as the update is still going. 

Cheers,

Re: Changing passcode

2019-09-29 Thread Neil Houghton
Hi Pat,

Sorry, if you have not previously backed the phone up to either your computer 
or the cloud, I would hope that this is not possible!

I you could do this then, surely, it would mean that anyone else who got hold 
of the phone could do this and access all your data!

Sort of a catch22 really - you need a good password to keep people out but 
then, if you forget it, it keeps you out too!

One reason why I use 1Password - but then I'd be up s**t creek if I forget that 
password!

I also keep secure notes in my keychain for some info I might forget - but then 
the barrier is my login password.

My thinking is that I expect to forget any password/info which I do not use too 
often. My passwords for my login and 1Password get used on a daily basis and so 
are (hopefully!) kept at the front of my mental filing cabinet.

If you don't want to erase and start again from scratch, you could try a few 
exercises to try and remember the existing password - some suggestions I came 
across:

• Take a deep breath. Leave your iPhone behind, go for a walk, and try not to 
think about the passcode per se. Separating yourself from the frustration may 
help jog your subconscious to release the information you have forgotten.

• If you still do not remember your passcode when you return, hold the iPhone 
in your hand and ideally sit or stand somewhere where you know you have entered 
your passcode before - If that is not an option, try to face a direction that 
you were facing when you successfully entered your passcode previously. Relax. 
Close your eyes. Open your eyes again. Enter the passcode without a conscious 
effort to remember the numbers or letters but instead "feel" it. You may be 
able to essentially trigger "muscle memory" of the motion pattern you have used 
before to enter the code.

OR, if you have a lot on the phone that you do not want to lose, one other 
(expensive) option - you could consider buying a new iPhone without restoring 
the old one. The hope would be that you might remember the passcode at some 
point in the future. Perhaps buying an expensive new phone will allow you to 
remember the passcode the next day. D'oh!


Good luck


Cheers



Neil

Subject: Changing passcode

A few weeks ago, my husband carelessly left his backpack  sitting on the 
train platform.  Two stations later, he realised what had happened and 
immediatiely went back to the start: but too late. The phone was gone. The very 
helpful conductors helped us lock the phone, and then we started a search to 
find the phone.   And we did  find the phone 2 days later, and got it back. 

Unfortunately, my husband couldn’t remember the Passcode. It was all 
numbers in some kind of mathematical array. The phone is on the family plan, so 
I am the person who has to fix it. 

I looked on the internet to see how to change the passcode, but most (or 
all) remedies involve erasing the phone (there is no  back up). 

I would like to know if uploading that data to the Cloud or the App Store 
in order to change the passcode also will erase the data, or would it be 
possible to see what is there, so we could replace it?

Hi Pat.
Is that iPhone regularly synced and backed up using iTunes on a Mac ?

If so then perhaps it can be restored using iTunes from the Mac.
