    How to shuffle songs by Genre in the new My Music?

    Yes, I know this is an IOS site. We have a Apple Music family plan and 1 of us is an android user. Apple Music works pretty well on Android too, however; trying to shuffle a genre does not seem possible??? The above instruction works on IOS but NOT in the android app. In fact, we can't find a...

    4S - remove 5.0.1 jailbreak, not restore to 5.1?

    They want to "try IOS" vanilla before likely jailbreaking, thus don't want to be "stuck" on 5.1 for who knows how long. /BD :cool:

    4S - remove 5.0.1 jailbreak, not restore to 5.1?

    I have a 4S jailbroken on 5.0.1 Want to sell to someone that doesn't want a jailbroken phone but wants to still be on 5.0.1 and NOT 5.1 ? If I remove the jailbreak by doing an iTunes restore... now that Apple isn't signing 5.0.1 anymore - will I end up on 5.1??? Other ways to remove the...

    Unlocked 3GS - getting it ready for sale?

    My daughter wants to sell her 3GS that was unlocked with Ultrasnow. It is on IOS 4.3.3 with 05.13.04 firmware. She wants to erase all of her data but keep the jailbreak/unlock so it is attractive to sell. Can she simply go to Settings/General/Reset ... and just erase everything or will that...

    Restore non-jailbreak back-up on jailbroken IP4?

    Yup... previous was breaking down (both Mute & Vol-Up non-functional). Would have jailbroken myself but happened to find a good one on eBay (I hope) that was already jailbroken with the new, untethered Redsnow on 5.0.1 /BD :cool:

    Restore non-jailbreak back-up on jailbroken IP4?

    Getting a 5.0.1 jailbroken (Redsnow untethered) IP4 later today (Yeah!) I have a backup I made on a non-jailbroken 5.0.1 (different) IP4. Can I just do a restore of all my apps etc using the non-jailbreak backup onto the IP4 that is newly jailbroken ? ... or will that totally mess-up the...

    Running/Cycling Apps???

    Using RunKeeper, which works pretty well. One thing I wish it could do is to "Pause" its minutes per mile pace tracking. When Road or Mtn Biking, there are times when one stops for a "bio break" or to peel off a clothing layer. Other than pulling out the iphone while I'm all sweaty to stop and...

    Is it just me ...

    Nope; comparisons to Windows are irrelevant. As to the 'vette (cool car, BTW)... The issue here is that the new hood in your analogy will absolutely fit on my older car (Leopard). Apple CAN release it, they simply choose not to. I really do like to upgrade (iPad & iPod)... I just do not like...

    Is it just me ...

    Sorry, Sean but that just doesn't cut it. It totally makes sense on the iPhone when new IOS features require the new hardware capabilities on the 3GS and iPhone4 to work so aren't supported on the iPhone 3G. It "does NOT" make sense that say the numeric remaining battery life is not supported...

    Is it just me ...

    No need to be sorry, I totally agree! Would love to use FaceTime and the Mac App Store but my 2 yr old MacBook is (and likely to stay awhile) on Leopard too. I'm thinking that Apple would like to encourage an upgrade model for Macs that is similar to the iPhone... Like every few months on IOS...

    iPhone 4 vs. 3GS - Storage size difference(s) ???

    Yes. Everything (as far as I can tell) is identical between the 3GS and the iPhone4. /BD

    iPhone 4 vs. 3GS - Storage size difference(s) ???

    Sure, I buy that. What is still odd is that the same exact playlist with the same exact songs that takes 9GB on the 3GS ends up taking 9.6GB on the iphone4 ??? /BD :(

    iPhone 4 vs. 3GS - Storage size difference(s) ???

    Have had a 3GS and an ipad. Got a (used) iphone4. My music playlist is 9GB. First odd item is that (both running 4.1) the 3GS storage capacity is listed as 14.3GB while this iphone4 lists capacity @ 14.01? Is that normal? I tried activating the iphone4 first using the itunes backup from the...

    how to put android on 3gs?

    Chris - there are many reasons to jailbreak... although admittedly less than before IOS4 was released (with multi-tasking). For me; being able to use Lockinfo + SBSettings makes my iPhone experience better and richer and removes most if not all of the incentive to use my android phone...
