Can't delete podcast
Posted by: "Leti Yahoo" l_labell@yahoo.com l_labell

I have two podcasts with an unusual icon on the right side. It is a small square with two concentric circles around it.
Both podcasts had an issue when I tried to download them onto the phone. One is for a bad podcast, that cannot be downloaded at all, neither from the phone nor from iTunes. The other was a podcast that was too large to download over 3G, so the download failed. In the latter case, I downloaded the podcast to iTunes then synced it to my phone. At that point I has TWO copies of the file: the good one I synced from iTunes and the bad one from the failed download
I cannot delete the two bad files. As I said, both have this odd icon at the right hand side. You cannot swipe to delete them - swiping has no effect. I've gone into Settings->Usage and tried to delete from there, but that doesn't work. In the first case, where the podcast is bad and I couldn't even download it to iTunes, it does not show up in Settings->Usage. In the second case, when I had a good version and a bad version of the podcast, I deleted the whole group from Settings->Usage, but only the good version was deleted; the bad one remains.
Has this happened to anyone else? How do I get rid of these podcasts?
Regards,
Leti

I have the same issue with one podcast on my iPod, but could not find a fix
as well.
I'll look forward future posts hoping someone can send a way to get rid of
it.
Tks

DryCase for iPhone, iPod touch review
Posted by: "Brent" flapdoodle@gmail.com flapdoodle44

Sent to you by Brent via Google Reader: DryCase for iPhone, iPod touch
review via AppleTell » iPhone/iPod touch/iPad by Aaron Kraus on 3/4/12
Provides: Protection for your iDevice from water, dirt, and other 'bad
for your electronics' stuff
Developer: Dry Corp.
Compatibility: All iPhone/iPod Touch models, many Android phones,
cameras with fixed (non-moving) flush-mounted lenses
Price: $29.99
Available: Now
The more indispensable smartphones become in our everyday lives, the
more inconvenient their shortcomings become. We are not dry and clean
at all times, so the mandate that our phones never touch water or get
dirty often proves difficult—you may get caught in the rain or have an
accidental splash despite your best efforts, and losing a $200 phone is
kind of a drag. Enter the DryCase, a vacuum-sealed waterproof case for
iPhone/iPod Touch (and its bigger brother, the DryCase Tablet for
iPad). These cases provide perfect protection, guaranteeing not only
that your device stays dry, but the screen, camera, and audio out
remain useable.
Pump It (out)
DryCase is not the only maker of dry bags for protecting for
electronics; with the proliferation of touch screens, many companies
now offer clear plastic dry pouches that allow you to see and use your
device without removing it. DryCase's distinguishing feature is the
vacuum seal, which (literally) sucks, pressing the clear vinyl against
both the front and back of your device. Without air bubbles, you are
guaranteed better interaction with your iPhone's screen, and you can
even use the camera with only a slight loss of clarity. The vinyl is
heat-stamped and thick enough to stand up to casual scratching, and it
is even possible to use the speakerphone through the case, though both
parties will sound muffled. Note that the case works best on
touchscreen devices—the vacuum seal may cause any physical raised keys
on the front of a phone to be pressed (volume buttons, etc. on the side
are usually fine).
To use the DryCase, there are two swivel clasps at the top that roll
outwards to open. Slide your device in from the top and position it as
needed; if you use the included armband and want to take photos,
remember to line up the camera above the armband. The clasps at the top
rotate back inwards to seal up, then you attach the vacuum bulb and
squeeze to pump out all the air.
The DryCase works best with a naked phone or one with a soft case; hard
cases may cause air pockets where they protrude out from/above your
device. A waterproof headphone-out jack is located on the bottom of the
case, so there is a cable permanently attached inside the bag. Tests
proved it is best to plug this in and then position it away from the
device, otherwise it leaves a small air pocket which defeats the
purpose of the vacuum seal.
Take It Anywhere
The DryCase includes a choice of buoyant armband or lanyard (both
removable), so you can pick the right method of carrying for the
activity at hand. The lanyard does not provide buoyancy, so it is a
better choice in situations where you are unlikely to drop the device
in deep or moving water. The armband is buoyant enough to keep an
iPhone 4S at the surface of the water, so if you drop it in a river,
lake, etc., you are able to retrieve it. It is a large, padded velcro
affair comfortable enough for wearing all afternoon but snug enough to
stay in place during vigorous activity like paddling a kayak.
All DryCases are tested underwater overnight, ensuring they will cradle
your iDevice in protective dryness. A handy self-test mechanism is
built into the DryCase by means of the vacuum seal—after you pump all
the air out, the instructions recommend observing the encased device
for 10 minutes for any sign of air getting in. If no air can get in to
fill the vacuum, no water can get in, either.
Although obviously not a case for everyday use, those of us with a
passion for outdoor activities will find DryCase an indispensable form
of protection for our iDevices when used for any of the following:
- Jogging in the rain
- Taking an iPhone kayaking/canoeing/hiking/biking to use for GPS or
emergency contact (it protects against mud splatters just as well as
water)
- Using an iDevice or cellphone at the pool or beach
- Reading an iBook while in the bathtub
- Singing in the shower (with DryCase' DryBUDS waterproof headphones)

Re: Email password

Wayne,
I don't think you have to set the password twice. The outgoing server password and user id fields are optional. You usually only need to enter the outgoing server which should be of the form smtp.comcast.net or some such.
However the difference between the iOS5 device and your iMac is that the OS assumes that with a computer you are using the ISP that you have and usually it does not require user authentication for outgoing messages since you are on the ISPs network. When you use Comcast's outgoing mail server when you are off their network - (e.g on the phone network or using a WIFI on another network), Comcast will not send an outgoing message for you unless it authenticates you as an authorized user.
In my situation, I don't use my ISP's outgoing mail server with my phone but either use AT&T's outgoing server or my domain name administrator's server.

When you First setup an email account on a iOS5 device and for an internet provider email account, in Settings on iPhone/iPad one must set the password twice; once for income and once for outgoing servers. Had to get a new password for my wife and she could not send but could receive email because I didn't realize on iOS5 devices you have to set the out going server password also. Why? Don't have to on an iMac running Snow Leopard/Lion.

Thank you all - downloaded it because I heard it was great & as mentioned did not use it until getting your feedback!
The warning was about losing pictures or data using Dropbox!
Based on your comments and usage over a year or two, going for it! ;)!

It is best to never depend on one service, computer, or disk drive for you
only copy of something. Always have backups.

China is so nerdy. Instead of stuffing their mules with pellets full of
heroin like regular criminals, Chinese smugglers are apparently just
slapping dozens of iPhones onto themselves, then trying (and failing)
to get through airport security. Like this idiot with 30+ iPhone 4S
handsets on his person. More »

Selling iPhone 4 voids warranty?
Posted by: "V. Meyer" n2words@earthlink.net vemeyermn

I understand the iPhone 4 has a one-year warranty. Does selling the
phone to someone void the warranty? I searched Apple's site, but can't
find the answer. I figured someone on this discussion list would know
the answer.
Thanks, Voni

Nope. As a matter of fact, AppleCare can be transferred once to
another person if you sell or give it to someone else.

Thanks, Jim. I figured as much, but thought I'd ask anyway. Appreciate

Latest I've heard is... A guy is taking att to arbitration. This includes sending a certified letter to att legal dept. We will see how this goes.
I heard it on the "today in iPhone podcast" which is a very good podcast.
Also heard on CBS news AT&T is going to start giving us 3gb before throttling.
