TheDon Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 So there was another bug with the iphone's alarm, awesome work by Apple there, it's not exactly rocket science to make a clock that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted January 4, 2011 Moderator Share Posted January 4, 2011 MILLIONS of iPhone users were totally told off by their boss after their favourite toy in the whole world forgot to get them up for work. A software bug affected the rectangular nipple's ability to effectively parent its charges, leaving them vulnerable to self-reliance for the first time since 2007. Many were found by family and friends rocking in a foetal position and asking when phone was going to wake-up. Martin Bishop, a 37 year-old Manchester United fan and Transformers enthusiast, said: "It's just like the time I got evicted because it didn't tell me to pay my mortgage. I'd call social services if I could get a signal." As Apple engineers focused on fixing the latest glitch in the £600 calculator, the company pledged to keep its stores open round the clock, offering advice on whether to eat vegetables and how to sit up properly like a big boy. Specially trained counsellors will also be on hand to assure customers their phones still love them and do not want to touch them in the bad place. Bishop added: "I got to work at ten-thirty and my boss was all like 'what time do you call this?' and I was like holding my phone up saying 'ask him' and my boss was like 'well, all this cardio-thoracic surgery still needs doing'." Meanwhile Apple has apologised for the phoney-woney boo-boo and insisted it would not affect its new OSX-powered toilet roll holder that knows when you've finished doing potty. iphone be naughty, say sleepyheads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerlad Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 iGibbets is a good free game, a little like Angry Birds. Needs more levels though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I have finally given up the cigs and have decided to save the money I would have spent and reward myself in say 4 months time if I am still off them with an ipad. The question is,do I wait for the version 2 or stick with a 1st gen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Version 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Always wait for version two. It should be along within four months too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Thats what I was thinking,there have been rumours it will be announced on 1st Feb. My only thinking about 1st gen is that it will invariably be a lot cheaper when the secon one is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted January 13, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2011 Actually has a go on one of the guys at work's iPad the other day, couple of mins on a blatent Halo rip off called Nova. That type of title will never work on a touchscreen. I also discovered that there must be something wrong with my fingers because it would not recognise an awful lot of my touches on the screen at all.

The_Rev Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 iPad 2 is rumoured to have a 2048x1536 display. If that's true, it's such an upgrade over the iPad it's almost unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Bit of a noob ipod question- If I plug my ipod into my current library on itunes, does the music on itunes override what's on the ipod, thereby erasing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Yup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Surely it doesn't if you select manually add songs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Just to be sure I haven't mis-understood. This Ipod is synced to this computer usually or to another one? --------------------- Pay for goods with o2 and Iphone 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 5, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted February 5, 2011 If it's synced to that computer, you should be able to just select "manually add songs" and it won't override what's on there. If it's synced to another computer, i.e. another library, then I don't think you can do that. It's THE most annoying feature of ipods, imo. My ex gf had to replace her hard drive on her laptop and because of that, even though it was the same computer, it thought it was anew library (even though it was identical) so it wiped her phone, including her apps.

YLN Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I'm thinking of buying myself an ipod touch. I need an mp3 player now that my computer doesn't really play music any more. I would be going for the 32gb at €300. Can't believe that the difference in price between the models is so much seeing as it's just an extra 24gb. If It had a usb port, I could attach a 500gb external hard drive for €50, but it doesn't so, I'll either go for the 8gb one and actively choose music I will actually listen to, or just put everything onto a 32gb without having to engage my brain. I won't be using it for gaming, or video chats, but I would like to be online while on the move. Not that I'm ever on the move, but I do intend to be soon. I don't want to spend €300 on it and considering I really only want it for its most basic functions, would anyone recommend that I go for an older generation version second hand, or buy the current version second hand on ebay. Is there something cheaper that would let me get wifi where available and with a good bit of memory to hold a few songs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 rumours emerging of an iphone nano. click here 2 thirds the size, no home button, £125 price point and the same processor as the iphone4. I think at this price it would be a massive success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 £125 That sounds much too cheap for an Apple product. If they were to produce a handset smaller but just as powerful I'd expect them to pitch it much closer to the standard Iphone price. They don't under charge on anything. BTW, I have an Ipod Touch 16GB in mint condition that is just gathering dust. If anyone wants to take it off my hands please send me a PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were to produce a handset smaller but just as powerful I'd expect them to pitch it much closer to the standard Iphone price. They don't under charge on anything. I dont know. Apple need something like this because they see what is happening on Android. You can buy a ton of mid range handsets on Android, and thats what people were doing 12, 18, 24 months ago and as they are coming out of their contracts they are deciding they quite like smart phones and would like a high end one next. As they are already invested in the Android eco system, they go high end Android. Apple could use a mid range handset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
