Nice! So why doesn't the 8 give you the infinity symbol? I think they missed a bet.

I'm using the plantronics 903+. Has bass boost sounds good , last 6 hours , recharge in 2. Volume up/down track forward and back, voice prompts. $70.
It's not loud enough for stitcher podcast in a noisy truck but music ok.
It's not legal in a vehicle since it serves both ears so I'm looking for a single ear alternative that music sounds DECENT.

Re: Bluetooth headset with Music
Posted by: "Richard Bauer" rk911@yahoo.com rk911

yes. streaming audio such as music, podcasts, etc. requires an additional
capability that some headsets do not have. it's called the Advanced Audio
Distribution Profile (A2DP). i had an older plantronics headset that i used
on my old motorola v710. that same headset worked just fine with the
iPhone4 but only for phone calls. i had to get a newer BT headset that had
the A2DP in order to hear my music and podcasts on my phone. jawbone also
makes a BT headset with this capability and there may be others. i bought
and really like the Plantronics Voyager Pro Plus and recommend it.
good luck to you.
_____________________ ______
Rich, are you saying that a BT headset can work with the phone for calls but
NOT work for playing music? This is what is happening. I'm not aware of a
toggle or selection with Apple's Music app that selects the output, the way
the Phone app does.
I just thought, "if it works for the phone, it should work for music"...

iCloud's App Search Engine: A First Step To A Cloud-Enabled P

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: iCloud's App Search
Engine: A First Step To A Cloud-Enabled Phone via TechCrunch by Sarah
Perez on 1/13/12
Apple has built a search engine for apps. It's called iCloud – or more
technically, it's one aspect of the overall iCloud service. Using it,
you can search through every app you have installed on your iOS device
or have ever purchased in the past. And it's available on your iPhone,
iPad or iPod Touch right now.
Note to Android users: This whole post is about Apple's iCloud. Android
has cool ideas, too. I love my Nexus S. But Android is not being
addressed in today's article.
The average smartphone user has 64 mobile apps installed on their
mobile device. I'm ahead of the curve. I have around 400. It's pushing
nearly 7 GB of storage. Granted, many of these apps were installed for
testing purposes only – they aren't used daily by any means. But my
real problem is that I'm not inclined to remove apps I don't use. They
just sit there on the phone, abandoned, languishing on the back
screens. I could delete them, but I don't. You know…just in case.
But the promise of iCloud, as I see it, is that these apps can
disappear from the iPhone's homescreen, but never have to fully
disappear from reach. They can be recalled through a simple search.
That search mechanism already exists. For now, it's tucked away under a
couple of screens within the iPhone's App Store. It's neither an
everyday necessity for the average user or functional enough for a
power user's needs. But it's there, and somewhere at Apple HQ, it's
being improved.
Today, it's easier to flip through your screens to find your apps,
especially if you only have 64 of them (or less). Worst case scenario:
you can't remember which folder you tucked the app in, so you flip to
the left side of the homescreen and use Spotlight Search to find the
app in question instead.
But let's extrapolate out to a few years into the future. A few years
of downloading and abandoning apps on our backscreens. A few years of
iPhone upgrades, with hundreds of leftover apps syncing to new devices.
Why not delete the unused apps? Why not perform regular app cleanups?
Because users are lazy. I'm lazy. I don't want to. I have better things
to do. So does everyone. And so the apps continue to sync from one
device to the next, forgotten.
We need a new metaphor for search. Homescreens, app folders and
Spotlight Search will not be enough. We need a cloud-hosted index of
searchable apps.
A number of companies are working towards this end. (See: Chomp,
Quixey, Do@t, Xyologic, Appolocious, AppsFire, Kinetik, and Crosswa.lk,
for example). There are a lot baby steps being taken here, and the
occasional leap. Build a search engine like Google, but for apps!
Include rankings and user reviews! Use keywords from app descriptions!
Make it social! All good ideas. But not enough.
And anyone who's just building an app search engine app without some
other larger business behind it, could easily get trounced on by Apple
in the coming months.
To see what I mean, check out the bare-bones iCloud app search engine
that's on your iOS device right now (assuming you're on the latest
version of iOS):
- Launch the App Store app.
- Tap "Updates."
- Tap "Purchased" (at the top).
- Drag the screen down so you can see the search box.
- Enter in a keyword (try something common, e.g. "photo.").
- Tap "Search."
Look at your results. There, all your apps matching your keywords.
Ranked by – how? – I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like time of
installation. It's certainly not update date or alphabetically.
This iCloud app search engine is only partial functional, though. Like
Spotlight, it only looks at the app's titles, not descriptions, for
keywords. It doesn't know how much you've used an app or how you've
rated it. Sometimes, it would show me which apps were installed versus
which are available on the cloud. Sometimes it got buggy and showed all
apps as having the iCloud download button, even if they were installed
on the device.
But it's there. And it's only a matter of time before iCloud search is
integrated with Spotlight Search and Siri, via APIs. We'll soon be
calling up our preferred apps using natural language, both in typed-in
queries and in spoken ones. We won't need to know whether the app is
currently on our phone. iCloud will know. Siri will know. We may not
even need to initiate the download ourselves. Our phone will do that
for us.
In addition, our homescreen clutter will be gone. Apps will delete
themselves after periods of non-use unless you configure them as
"locked." Maybe there will be an "auto organize" option for our
homescreens, which arrange apps based on usage.
With the exponential growth of the mobile application ecosystem, this
is one of the only possible ways to manage the entirety of a user's app
archive in the months ahead. Many of today's apps are cloud-based, but
this will be a cloud-based phone.
Maybe I'm dreaming? But if Apple can't get it done, someone should.
(Android? Windows Phone? An app developer? A startup?) The mobile
ecosystem is still young enough to be entirely disrupted by someone
with a new idea for parsing the new web of apps. Today, I believe it's
Apple that's the closest to implementation, given the glimpse it's
given us with iCloud. But who knows? We could still be surprised.

iTunes Non-Synch Message
Posted by: "robfrankeldotcom" rob@iphonewingman.com robfrankeldotcom
Fri Jan 13, 2012 10:28 am (PST)
Greetings:
Recently, when synching my iPod Touch 3 to iTunes on my MBP, I get a message that reads:
"iTunes Sync
10 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information."
I've searched, but can't find where the "more information" is. Anyone know where this message would be displayed? It's not on the iPod Touch and doesn't seem to be anywhere on the MBP.
I synch to the machine, BTW, not the Cloud.
Thanks,
Rob Frankel

With the device plugged int here should be an exclamation point after the
name of the device under the "Device" list right before the "Eject" icon -
click on it. Chances are you have iPhoto or something set to sync that has
content that can not be played on the phone - usually .3GP (other cell
phone standard video), etc - I get this every time I sync and If you ignore
it the first time it just logs it on the device and doesn't pop up anymore.

Hi Rob. There should be a plus sign under the message. You can click that
to expand the window and it will show you which items have not been synced.
I hope this helps.

yes, I did that ... and the Apple guy had me do it too. I ended up fixing it by doing a complete backup and restore through iTunes. That fixed it. My iPhone seems to want to get flakey about once a month, and I've had it only since October 2011. One more time and I'm going to complain to Apple.

I am assuming that you are speaking of Apps page, when you have clicked on your iPhone under Devices and then the Apps tab. If so is the Sync Apps box checked?
Or are you speaking of Apps in the left frame under Library?

Dear All
Need desperate help. "No service" being displayed on my iPhone4.
I think cyclically for 5 seconds full 5 bar & signals come, then after 5 seconds it drops to one bar & then after another 5 seconds to "No Service". This cycle keeps on repeating.
Have tried restarting, re-inserting SIM. What to do next ?
