Perfect Message Tone
Posted by: "Andrew Piantanida" piantanida31@yahoo.com piantanida31
Wed May 2, 2012 3:20 am (PDT)
I did this just for fun, but found myself loving it:
You know the way 'Droid snobs set their message tone to say "'DROID!", sort of like a Cylon Centuron in the original "Battlestar Galactica"? That robot voice?
On my iPhone, I downloaded an app called "Voice Plus" for $1.99. Then I recorded my voice, in the "robot" setting, saying "IPHONE!". And I set it as my message tone.
So around the office, when my co-workers get a text, you'll hear, "'Droid!". Whenever I get a text, you'll hear, "iPhone!".

That's very cool. It's funny to watch an audible text or call come in in a crowded. How many pull out their phones to see if it's for them? LOL

Facebook Notification Tone?

Wed May 2, 2012 3:24 am (PDT)
Does anyone know how to change the Facebook notification tone on an iPhone 4S? Mine just rings with the tri-tone. Is there a setting for this? It seems like the new OS allows custom settings for almost every tone, including calendar & texts.
Thx. -Andy P.

Has anyone else gotten this message asking to set the stupid security questions and provide an email address from Apple? Seems a little strange. I am nervous since my previous apple account was hacked.
Thanks.

+1 or not -- in Create Contact
Posted by: "jiminmanjr" jiminmanjr@yahoo.com jiminmanjr
Wed May 2, 2012 7:02 am (PDT)
A friend got a new cell phone, and texted me today. I didn't recognize the number (obviously), but then went to add the contact to My Contacts.
When clicking "add to Contacts" in the text message, it automatically puts a +1 before the area code. I always delete it... but is that necessary? Do I need to worry about it?
I only have one out-of-country friend that I text, and her information is stored in. If texting to a US number, does the +1 impact things at all?
Thanks!!

Dropbox

Is it worthwhile? I read that it is free, but I also read that there can be a cost associated with it.
Also there is something called Cloud Console on sale right now. Is it worthwhile? Sometimes I find it's more difficult to remember which app I saved something to.

I love Dropbox. It is a great companion to an iPad. I use it a lot to move
PDF files to my iPad and then open them in Goodreader. It is also a good
way to share files with a friend. You can set up a URL to give them and
they can down load it.

I have not heard of Cloud Console, so looked it up. It looks to be a client that is compatible with Dropbox and SugarSync.
For me, Dropbox was my first cloud storage. To this day I have found nothing better. When I signed up for Dropbox, I got 2GB free storage with no file size limits except for the amount of space...ex. a 2GB storage limit means the largest file you can upload is a 2GB file. I've been a user of Dropbox for over 4 yrs. After the first year, I decided to go with the Pro 50. That's 50GB for $99 a year. Worth every penny for me. Since I can upload any size file up to 50GB, I didn't bring my MBP to NYC 2 yrs ag for a weeks vacation. I had my iPad, camera connection kit and the GoodReader app. Every night I'd offload my CF card of all it's pictures of the day onto my iPad, put them into GoodReader, zip them into 1 file and upload them to Dropbox, then delete the photos on my iPad. I got home and all my pictures were on Dropbox. There are other cloud based storage companies out there...Box.net, SugerSync are examples but as of the last ime I checked (quite awhile ago), they had file size limits.
So, for free or pay, Dropbox is the best IMHO. Best thing to do is go to the Dropbox website, take their tour and decide for yourself :-)

iTunes users griping about Apple's security questions

Apple's security questions via iPhone Atlas: Apple iPhone tips,
how-tos, troubleshooting, and news - CNET Reviews by Lance Whitney on
5/1/12
(Credit: Apple)
A handful of iTunes users aren't too happy about the security questions
being thrown at them to verify their accounts.
Apple recently ramped up stricter security measures for iTunes and iOS
users in an attempt to prevent accounts from being abused or
compromised. Beyond just entering a password, some users are now being
asked to choose three security questions and a backup e-mail address
when they try to download content.
But it's the selection of questions themselves that appear to be
upsetting some of the Apple faithful, according to The Register.
Users are being asked to choose from a tight list of questions,
including:
- "What was the first car you owned?"
- "Who was your first teacher?"
- "Who was your best childhood friend?"
- "In which city were you first kissed?"
Some people chiming in on Apple Support Communities say the answers to
certain questions are too easy to figure out or are public knowledge.
Others are saying they don't even know the answers to certain
questions. A few have suggested that ... [Read more]
