Same problem for me. I leave home or work, after several hours on WiFi data signal, only to be unable to acquire a 3G signal on my new (unlocked) 4S. The signal icon displays three or more bars, but none of my streaming media will work. This NEVER happened on my old 3GS. So, I can reboot and...

Maybe I'm jumping the gun, but some day, iPhone5 will come and eventually we will be able to j/b to puppy. So, if I currently have purchased apps through Cydia on my iPhone3Gs or 4, when I "upgrade" to 5 and can j/b it, will I be able to reload those paid-for apps to the new phone? Thanks...

As far as transferring photos from a digital camera to the iPad, it's a piece of cake, with the iPad camera docking accessory. That's what I did on a previous trip, freeing up my digital camera for more pictures. By the time I was about to return home, the camera's SD card was full and the...

I'm about to take a two week trip, using my iPad 32Gb as storage for photos from my digital camera (and any videos I take with my iPhone). Problem is, I have it currently so full of apps, books, music, etc, that there's not a lot of space left for "temporary storage." I'd like to set up a "new"...

Excellent comment, Alli. Well spoken and worth remembering for all of us who derive benefit for the folks who make these things happen. :)

Okay, the Greenpois0n team have given us the ability to jb our new AppleTVs. So, now what do we do with them? Where are the ATV apps, the CydiaTV store, the leadership to take this to a whole new level? ;) I know, ATV is not as attractive (or prolific) as the iP#'s of this world, but the...

I have the Apple video cable, which support both the iPhone and iPad, with direct component video interface to my HD TV monitor. YouTube and QuickTime videos work great, but I have some apps, mostly international news sources (Deutsche Welle, RT, BBC, France24) that support full-screen video...

I live in Maine and have an iPhone 3Gs, locked on AT&T. I'd like to get an iPhone4, but I'm so tired of being locked to any carrier. Not that I'd consider switching carriers while in the U.S. For all of it's shortcomings, AT&T is still the best GSM carrier--especially in coverage and 3G data...

Are there other iPhone app "remote" options for Apple TV, other than the "Remote" app, which really only controls the Mac and network connections? I thought I'd read someplace that there was a WiFi based full remote for ATV, that would do just about anything the little hand-held remote did. I...

Just got a new ATV on Saturday. I'm wondering what would be accomplished with a j/b. I have a j/b'd iPhone and that makes sense, but what is there that would be different were we to j/b the ATV? I'm all for is, but just would like to know what might be possible. Thanks.

I just got my Apple TV and like it very much. I'm glad they offered a nice selection of Internet radio stations amongst the options. While not a bad assortment of stations, some of my favorites are not amongst them. Is there any way to add to or edit the existing "Radio" offering on Apple TV?

Went out to the Apple Store on Saturday afternoon. The place was packed, but nobody was giving AppleTV a look. In fact, I had to get help finding the little boxed thing. It's so small and was hidden away by the Apple rechargeable batteries and other "accessories." Not much promotion. That...

I have a similar situation. I live in the US, but have a UK VPN, which allows me to watch BBC/ITV television content, as though I were actually in the UK. I have had to access this content through temporary connections with my MacBook and iPhone/iPad, but the ATV should be even better, as it's...

Easy or not... thank you very much.... ;) mp

Thanks, but most "restore SHSH in Cydia" refer to restoring to version 3.1.2. I'm wondering if I need to go that far back. Maybe a restore to 4.0 would be better? (What some of your extremely knowledgeable folk may not consider is that some of us, while not as experienced, are neither lazy...
