This may be off topic, but I can't seem to find an answer. My husband and I
both have Iphones and no land lines. I have a 4S running ios 6.1.3.

I am hard of hearing, and when I get a voice mail, and it is not one of my
contacts, I can not always make out the name or the message. I seem to be
only able to play the message once. ..then my choices are to either call
back or delete. is there any way to play that message a second, or even a
third or more times?

Thanks,
Jeannie

Thanks, pat. I will try that..But there if there is no name due to the
caller not being in my contacts, then what?

The other day some woman called. She wanted to know something about some
pics i had taken..couldn&#39;t make out the whole message or even when she said
her name. I did try calling back, but she wasn't there.

I have a voice mail now from a friend and I will try that method

Simply select the VM again, and hit play. You can replay it as often as you like.

The little arrow that appears to the left of the message when you select a message in your list of voicemails is the "replay" button.

Hello,

There are also:

MySQL [$2000 from Oracle] [www.mysql.com] - I assume that there may be an
open source version but Oracle assimilated MySQL like the Borg collective.

PostGreSQL [www.postgresql.org], [www.pgadmin.org] (the admin GUI for DB)
-Free [Note: this is essentially, the Rolls Royce of open source databases.
PostgreSQL is the default database on Mac OS X Server as of version 10.7.
Binary installs available.

You can also have totally massive loads of fun compiling Postgresql if you
have such a fantastic groovy craving for Xcode... :)

Note: No idea on how to import into Postgresql from Foxbase. There is a
large user community.

John F. Richardson

mySQL is now owned by Oracle and the original mySQL team put together an
alternative MariaDB that is compatible and more capable.

IIRC MySQL used to be included in OS X, along with PHP and Apache. It seems
you now need to install Xcode but this is free from the App Store.

BTW Xcode is 1.65 GB so it will take a while to download!

Can anyone help with my group message question?

When I type a group name into the To field and press Enter, it expands
automatically. Does yours not do that?
