Tried the hard reset and still nothing. Cant move, remove, or get icons to wiggle. Don't know what else to try or how this happened but it really is a pain!

If I sync my phone with the new pc and restore my apps from my account on iTunes will it restore my saved game files or do I lose those too?

Dennis;
If your "new" PC is a Win 7 PC use the transfer utility to transfer all your files from old to new.
I moved from a XP machine to a Win 7 PC and my iPhone never knew the difference.

Belinda,

The iPhone has no method for doing this except for selecting a silent ring
tone for that particular contact.

Unfortunately no... You can set that number up with a silent ringtone and
pretend you don't see your phone light up, but there is no way to just block the
number, or send it to oblivion.

Well I take that back, you can get terribly complicated, send all of your calls
through Google voice and let it block numbers for you and I had to go there
once. It wasn't pretty, but it worked.

I would love to be able to do this. The Droid does have this ability.
Someone made up a number to a credit card company and it is mine. I do not have that credit card and no matter how often I told them they still called. I finally had to write the CEO and his assistant finally stopped the calls. But it would have been so much easier to just block them.

If you're AT&T, there's "Smart Limits" that lets you list numbers to block calls/texts. It's more of a parental control thing, but does block numbers. It's an extra $5 a month, or something like that.

Not an expert, but ensure the keyboard is not paired to anything else.
If so disconnect, unpair, whatever called. Fresh batteries, installed
the correct way. Don't forget to turn the keyboard on. That's what I had
to do the last time.

Re: Can't pair iPhone to Apple keyboard...

I was able to pair my iPhone 3GS.

Make sure bluetooth turned on in Settings>General

Hold down the power key on the side of your bluetooth keyboard until the small green light starts blinking.

Once you see 'Apple Wireless Keyboard .. Not Paired' under Devices, then select that a message 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' would like to pair with your iPhone . Enter a pin XXXX

Type in the pin and you should be paired.

Hope this helps. I think the key is to hold down the power key for awhile on the side of the keyboard.

That trick worked when trying to connect my iPad and my iPhone. If you have it hooked via bluetooth to another device like an iPad, you can 'select the keyboard' and then select 'forget this device' to unconnect.

Key is to hold down the power key for awhile on keyboard. Also you can turn bluetooth off and on to reset the bluetooth as well and then hold down the power button on side of keyboard.

I do it manually. But there are programs for that, although nothing impresses me. That's why I'm doing it manually.

Pollux - http://polluxapp.com/

Does 10 for free I think and is $10 per YEAR and well worth it, even if you
only for a year, highlight as many as you want and let it run. I initially
did it on the majority of my entire library and it took about 3 days (I had
about 40GB of just music at the time).

Mp3Tag

This is donateware but you can still use it fully functional for free. It
is what I use and it is great. You can change one or multiple tags at
once. It allows you to change everything imaginable in the properties of an
mp3.

Open iTunes on connecting iPhone

Posted by: "AnneL" shadow484@comcast.net   alogston

Mon Dec 6, 2010 7:47 am (PST)



Hey, folks. I used to have iTunes open automatically when I connected my
phone. When I go to the options on iTunes, this choice is still there, but
it's grayed out and can't be checked. What's up with this? Does the latest
update just flat-out forbid this, or is there something I have to change on
my phone to make this work?

Thanks,
Anne

You have to update your voice mails system! You have to put in your cell number without the area code. Or u can go to this website.

Hello all:
I am looking for a recommendation for a real good stereo bluetooth headset for
my new iPhone4. I want to listen to music from iTunes with a wireless bluetooth
AND be able to talk on the phone (and be alerted when a phone call comes in).
My local AT&T store man says I need a stereo bluetooth headset for this.

recommendations? thanks!

> <http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/lifehacker/full/~3/xikkAerxKOs/everything-you-need-to-know-about-4g-mobile-broadband>

At least they acknowledge the problem. Namely, that there are NO 4G networks or cellphones.

> With Verizon's launch of their 4G LTE network, three out of the four major US carriers�Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile�boast 4G data networks. Each company's definition of "4G" is quite a bit different, however, and not a single one actually meets the International Telecommunication Union's (ITU) official definition. The ITU defines 4G as a connection capable of 100Mbps with high mobility (wherever you go) and up to 1Gbps with low mobility (Wi-Fi range). The cellular data network's 4G speeds don't even come close, and the only definition each network seems to be able to agree upon is that 4G is just what comes after 3G. While the title of "4G" isn't necessarily accurate and, in many ways, meaningless, we nonetheless have to live by the terminology these cellular data providers are using.

The ITU is who gets to define exactly what 4G cellular telephony IS. If they say that what Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon are calling 4G is NOT actually 4G, then IT IS NOT 4G.

We used to refer to "2.5G". Perhaps what they are trying to sell us on now should be called "3.5G".

An iphone4 requires a micro sim, even if you buy an unlocked

be without pin. I bought one in Belgium and got micro sim from
a carrier although it is pin locked but I use public hot spot.
