Re: Library WMA Audiobooks- Lost

I have WMA files working on my iphone now. I had to do 2 things. First change the Import Settings in iTunes and uninstall and reinstall the OverDrive Media Console. You need 3.2.0.6 version and I had 3.2.0.5. Only way I could update is to uninstall and reinstall.
I am not sure if both is needed since I changed the import settings first and then figured I needed the newer versioin of the console.
To change import settings:
import settings in iTunes and
transfer the title again.
1. In iTunes, go to Edit | Preferences….
2. On the 'General' tab, select the 'Import Settings…' button.
3. In the 'Import Using' field, select 'AAC Encoder'.
4. In the 'Setting' field, select 'Spoken Podcast'.
5. Click the 'OK' button to apply changes and close the 'Import Settings'
dialog box.
6. Click the 'OK' button to close the iTunes Preferences dialog box.

Subject: Re: [apple-iphone] Library WMA Audiobooks- Lost
This is something I am working on for our library. I downloaded a WMA file and iTunes converts it giving a message like "Converting 3345. The next chapter says "Converting 4356" etc. Very strange. If I write down one of these numbers I can search on the iPhone for it and find that chapter - sometimes. I cannot find the audiobook anywhere on my iphone looking through the music app. MP3 files work through the app, but so much of what I want and are customers want are WMA formats.
I wil let you kow if I find out anything. OverDrive claims they have this fixed with their updated app and media center, but I still can't get it to work. I have someone else at work testing it.

You need to have overdrive on the iPhone/pad to read/listen even though
iTunes is used to get them onto the device they show up in overdrive.

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: New Apple Store app
launches Thursday; here's how it will change Apple's retail operations
via BGR: The Three Biggest Letters In Tech by Jonathan S. Geller on
11/1/11
While information about Apple's new iOS app and retail plans have
leaked out in various forms over the past few weeks, we now have the
whole story thanks to a trusted source. On Thursday, Apple's new retail
store app for iOS will launch, and it will bring two major features
with it. First, it will enable online ordering with retail store pick
up. This has already started happening in a few stores in California
and New York City Apple stores as well, and more stores will go live on
Thursday. Hit the jump for details on what happens when you place an
order through the app to pick up in a retail store nearby.
- If a customer orders an in-stock product, pick up will be available
approximately 12 minutes after completing the order. Why 12 minutes?
Well, the order goes through the system to the designated Apple Store
in about 3 minutes. Apple's back-of-house employees have 2 minutes to
set all of the products aside on a shelf from the minute it was
ordered. There is then a 7-minute grace period for employees to get
everything else in order. Around 12 minutes after purchasing, customers
will be able to walk into the Apple Store, skip lines, skip registers,
get their products, sign for them and leave. We're told Apple is really
excited about this, and it's something customers have been seeking for
a while.
- If a customer orders something that a retail store does not have
in-stock, like a custom-configured machine, an accessory the store does
not carry, or something like an engraved or gift-wrapped device, the
customer will be a given a pick-up date right after the purchase is
completed. Everything will have free shipping when sent to an Apple
retail store. Once the order arrives at the Apple Store and is
available for pickup, a push notification will be sent to the customer
through the Apple Store app, letting him or her know the order is
ready. We're told the same 12-minute timeframe applies here as well: 12
minutes from the time the push notification is received, the customer's
order should be waiting to be signed for.
- We have been told customers who opt to purchase online or through the
app will be given priority when they walk into the store over a
customer waiting for a retail specialist, and that Apple expects the
majority of customers over the next few years to use the in-store pick
up option as their default method of buying products. This will help
with foot traffic in retail stores while also reducing the cost of
shipping for Apple, and possibly even reducing the number of stores
Apple needs to open to accommodate sales.
- Apple will offer customers the ability to return items purchased
online to retail stores.
- Lastly, we're told that Apple will be attributing revenue from items
purchased in this manner to the retail store where the items are
delivered and retrieved. This should help create new job opportunities
since hiring at Apple Stores is based on sales. Apple is reportedly
expecting a 30% increase in sales at retail stores from this program,
and it will only be available in the U.S. for now.
The other major feature coming in Apple's new app? Customer self
check-out at retail stores. This is a huge deal and Apple is the first
to be able to put it together. Here is how this will work: after you
find the item you want to buy, like an accessory, you launch the Apple
Store app on your iOS device and there will be an option to buy a
product in the store. You scan the product with the camera on your
device in the app, click purchase, and it will charge whatever credit
card is associated to your Apple ID. You then just walk out of the
store. Yes, we have been told that Apple will not be checking purchases
which seems hard to believe, but this self check-out option will launch
Thursday worldwide at all Apple retail stores.

In iOS5, is there any way to view your flagged messages as a group? You can see the flags if you scroll through the messages, but is there a way to go directly to the flagged message or messages?

> I downloaded a song from iTunes on my computer and it went to my iPhone automatically. Now I can't get the song off my iPhone or the itunes program even if it's not selected to sync on the iTunes program. How do I remove it from the iPhone and iTunes?
On your iPhone: Settings - Store - UNcheck "Music".
Then music you put on your computer will not *automatically* be downloaded to your phone.
In iTunes on your computer: Preferences - Store - UNcheck "Music".
Then music you put on your phone will not *automatically* be downloaded to your computer.

I was wondering the same thing too. I bought a copy of a couple mags to see if I wanted to subscribe. Now I want to delete the mags and not be bothered with notifications when the new issues come out since I didn't subscribe.

Re: wifi sync

When you set up sync over wifi on the iPhone is says that the iPhone must be
connected to a power source for syncing to happen. It does not have to be
connected to a computer. An charging source should do. It will not sync if
not plugged into power.

Mine will sync to iTunes as long as the iTunes program is open on my PC and I'm on wifi. It doesn't need to be plugged in.

Mine started out that way after I set it up, but now requires power. Don't know what changed.
