luvdunhill Posted September 28, 2013 Report Posted September 28, 2013 I've heard that the Apple Genius will help if you're screwed/bricked by their iOS software update, even if warranty is out. Might be true Good idea! Should I play dumb and ask if they will do the upgrade for me?
blessingx Posted October 2, 2013 Report Posted October 2, 2013 BTW, for those looking to add slowmo to older iPhones, I've been having success with SlowCam (iPhone 5 and 60 fps).
shellylh Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) Crap. I just updated my ipad to ios7 and now the remote app switches and gets locked into portrait mode. Who the fuck ever uses their ipad in portrait mode? Has anyone found a fix for this. I am going to be really pissed if it stays like this. Edited October 3, 2013 by shellylh
Salt Peanuts Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 Who the fuck ever uses their ipad in portrait mode? I do, bu then again, I'm weird. As for the Remote app orientation, I think it may not be a bug since it's been like that from iOS 7 beta.

en480c4 Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 Got my 5S yesterday. Holy hell this thing is snappy. No real complaints running iOS7 on my 4s, but wow. Now I just need to figure out how I'm going to get audio to my speakers at work. I've been using a 30 pin dock with my 4S, and need the volume control on the phone. I've read that the lightning docks all lock the level as full line out, which is problematic. Hmmmm... Any suggestions are appreciated.
grawk Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 30 pin extension cable with a lightning to 30 pin adapter?That's how I use my ipad mini in my car
shellylh Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) What happens if you rotate your body 90 degrees? Nothing happens. It stays the same orientation. Oh, now I'm maybe realizing that your post was perhaps a joke. Haj: Some have reported that when they restart the ipad, it was fixed and can now go into landscpe mode. That didn't work for mine. I wish I would've known about this since I never would have upgraded. I hate using the ipad in portrait mode, it is especially annoyiny with the smart cover on it, and use the remote app daily. The ipad3 also seems slower, opening and closing windows now. Perhaps it is the really awful zoom effect-hate that too. Also newstand seems even more annoying since I can't close the nytimes app with one click of the home button anymore. Edited October 3, 2013 by shellylh
grawk Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 shelly, maybe set the switch to orientation lock (or off it, if that's where it is), then restart, then set it back to the alternate setting?
blessingx Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 Watch out guys there's a new "easy" Touch ID spoof.
shellylh Posted October 6, 2013 Report Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) shelly, maybe set the switch to orientation lock (or off it, if that's where it is), then restart, then set it back to the alternate setting? Still doesn't work. At this point, I am guessing that I am going to have to wait for Remote to get updated before it will work again (it was last updated Jan 30, 2013). Very frustrating.

justin Posted October 8, 2013 Report Posted October 8, 2013 my iphone 5 has a yellow screen issue and ive been holding off until the warranty is almost up to get it fixed/replaced, figuring they'll just give me a new unit and then i can upgrade to the 5S and have a fresh 5 to sell. i bought it online from verizon. so do i take it to the verizon store? or an apple store? if an apple store i could do that in Denver as there isnt one where i live
shellylh Posted October 8, 2013 Report Posted October 8, 2013 Well, I always knew there was something wrong with you. 1
grawk Posted October 9, 2013 Report Posted October 9, 2013 Well, I always knew there was something wrong with you. That's not what's wrong with Jacob. 1
shellylh Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Got the iphone 5s today and it's up and running! 2
blessingx Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Does Remote work in landscape on it?
shellylh Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 That's funny - I didn't try yet. What does work fantastically is the fingerprint Touch ID!
blessingx Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Cool. How do you like the phone so far?
shellylh Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 Pretty good although some if the integration with calendars is not going so well. I didn't have much time to mess around with it today unfortunately. Instead, I spent the evening trying to figure out what has been biting me for the last 4 days.
Dusty Chalk Posted October 11, 2013 Report Posted October 11, 2013 I've been dealing with that, too. Fucking hate it. 1

I've read that the lightning docks all lock the level as full line out, which is problematic. Hmmmm... Any suggestions are appreciated. www.Cablejive.com makes a 30 pin adapter cable that has both a 1/8" headphone jack and a USB jack on one end. So you can connect (1) a mini-mini cable between the dock and the 5s headphone out and (2) a lightning charging cable to the USB, while the 30 pin socket on the other end is connected to the actual 30-pin dock. I have one and it works well. The 5 and 5s headphone out sounds much better than an Apple 30-pin to lightning adapter with the crappy DAC inside the adapter.
Salt Peanuts Posted October 17, 2013 Report Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Just read that AT&T is making their Mobile Share plan mandatory for new customers starting in 10/25/13, just as Verizon had done when they introduced Share Everything plan. On a separate note, anyone get Apple leather case for 5s? Any thoughts? Edited October 17, 2013 by Salt Peanuts
raffy Posted October 17, 2013 Report Posted October 17, 2013 Even for individual customers? Not that I care because I'm on a family plan
