Yeah, well I had already downloaded the file. So that wasn't it. The wait was while it backed up the iPhone.

> It turns out it wasn't really stalled. More like watching glaciers move. I left it alone and it took 6 hours to upgrade. Does anyone else think this is excessive?! What can take 6 hours???

Among other things, downloading a several-hundred megabyte file when the servers are busy....

But the desktop itself for HanDBase hasn't changed since the "old
days" and is a pain to work with.

Agreed. I don't really use the desktop other than to move backups to the Mac from my iPhone.

GV Mobile sounds interesting. And, why do I need it? My iPhone is a phone, and I am not seeing in these messages what it does for the average user. thanks for any help.

If you don't use Google Voice then you likely have no need for it, but for
those of us who do it provides a direct interface to all GVoice services
without having to navigate a scaled down mobile web interface.

I am also trying to figure out if it makes sense to start using Google Voice. I've had a number back when it was the previous start up company. I just never found a reason to try it out.

I don't have an iPhone yet. It is funny that I bought an iPod Touch first generation immediately after they first came out. There weren't even cases available for them yet. I was definitely one of the first people to buy an iPod Touch. Yet, for whatever reason, I wasn't interested in an iPhone until now. I will be getting my iPhone in October, so I am trying to learn about its features by reading your questions and comments.

It is hard to comprehend certain things if you can not visualize them. Maybe because I never owned an iPhone before, some of the things I read here sound strange to me. But I am sure that once I have that phone in my hand, it will be an easier hands-on experience. I love gadgets, so now I am dying to get my new phone and start learning along with all of you iPhone pros. :)

What bluetooth do you have? I have the Jawbone Icon and I am unable to do so,
but wondered if I wasn't doing something correctly. Anybody know if this update
helped the Icon have this feature?

4.1 has a lot of bug fixes and features not in 4.0.x - all phones and
touches should be updated to it.

Can you listen to music with any bluetooth headset

Sent from my BlackBerry wireless device

No - it has to support A2DP (Stereo Profile) - Most newer headsets support
it, older and/or cheaper ones only support the "Handsfree" (phone) profile,
look for one that supports at least both Handsfree and A2DP (Stereo sound
along with Play/Pause), if not AVRCP (FF/Rewind/Skip/Back controls) as well.

Shortly after I bought my iPhone 3GS in July 2009, I had to get a new phone due to battery issues. I **think** I kept my original cords, but I'm not 100% sure.

Regardless, since that time my USB/charger cord has had some twisting issues. At both ends, it's like a kinked vacuum power cord - the outer rubber material has slowly twisted and torn. About two months ago, it had gone down almost two inches on the phone jack end, and an inch or so on the USB end.

I've used electrical tape to cover it, but that doesn't seem to be the best option. I now have to set the plugged in phone down at a certain angle in order to charge. If I am holding it up (while lying in bed), I lose the charge signal, or it goes in-and-out.

Has anyone else had this trouble with their charger cords? I could go buy a new one, but just didn't want to spend the money if I didn't have to... but maybe others have had this happen.

Thanks!

The power cord doesn't have strain relief at the ends as it should. I have had 4 or 5 of these break over the years.
I just take it to the Apple Store and they give me a free exchange for a new one! I recommend you do the same.

Last night I downloaded the 10.1 system (I think that's the latest), and left my phone plugged in to the computer overnight. When I got on the phone this morning, there is an app for "Game Center" on the main screen - not pushed to the third screen like new apps typically do.

What is it? Am I missing something? I checked out the app, and it looks like mostly paid games that I don't need.

Thanks!

It seems that for the past month or two I've had some weird instances with Facebook on my iPhone 3GS.

I will go into the app, look around, and then close it... and have 33, or 45, or 58 notifications. I'll open the app again, and I'll have a notification on being tagged in a picture, or a new post or something, but not the quantity that I see on the home screen.

Also, on the Main Menu of the page (Inbox, Photos, Check-In, etc)., I will sometimes have the same notification showing up for two or three days - even when others have come in after that. I don't know how to clear it up... but it's just a minor thing.

Anyone else having this happen?

Are you sure you have the latest facebook app? Be sure to download the latest version.

Also, I recommend you reboot your iPhone, and also exit out of facebook and then re-login.
