All Things Mac/ Apple
-
maybe a shitty question, but i still need to try my luck
so i want to update the software on my Iphone 4…it´s the first time i´m doing it and since i don´t want to lose all the things saved on it, i´ve already saved a backup of the actual "status" with itunes...already saved the apps as well!
now i want to save the pics and vids on it...should i do this with itunes or the "normal" way with copy&paste?...can´t find the right buttons in itunes, to sync. the pics from the iphone to my desktop!

You could just use iPhoto, even if you don't actually use iPhoto. Your phone will mount in the same way it does in iTunes so you can just bung 'em all in an album and access the source files via Finder.
-
Just to add to Winchy's advice…..even simpler would be to use Image Capture -(in applications)(presuming you are on a Mac).
-
not owning a mac…well not yet, so i just went the copy&paste way.
i had stored like ~4700pics and videos on my iphone, so i had to wait a bit
now i´ve just updated the new software and after going through the iphone settings, it´s just recreating the backup version (2hours to go!)...
i thought, after installing the new software, that i just could go ahead and sync. all the stuff (apps, pics, vids, contacts) which i have saved in itunes into the iphone and that´s it...unfortunately not! :-\

Dropped/ cracked my iPhone 4 screen last night. Anyone know if that is covered by Apple insurance? If not, anyone know the cost to fix it? Trying to decide if I should wait for the 5 or bail and grab a 4S?

You should be able to get a new screen for $100. I wouldn't bother going to Apple as they'll probably be more. Best deals in Toronto are in Chinatown.
FYI, Apple wants $300 if you crack a new iPad screen and it's not a replacement. They give you a new iPad.

Thanks for the help. Wondering if I can just go to AT&T and get a new screen? Not that I want to pay $100 for a new screen on this old phone…

L,
If you are gonna replace, wait for the 5.
It's supposed to drop next month.
That's what I was thinking. Just a pain in the ass with this busted screen. Thanks

Yeah I thought about that. Only issue is that I have a aftermarket back that was a bitch to put on and I am pretty sure the whole thing will be fucked if I try to do this. Prob will anyways. Thanks G.

Just ordered a replacement off of ebay. Couldn't stand looking/ dealing with it in its current state. Bring on the 5!!!!

Talking of all things MAC. Woke up this morning to Mail crashing with a "Mail quit unexpectedly" message. Apple support wanted to charged me USD55 per hour to help. Am currently downloading Snow Lion (for USD20) because then I will be in warranty and they'll help me out for nothing…..
About one in twenty crashes, I manage to down load mails before it crashes. Then if I turn WiFi off I can restart and work on those mails.
Reconnect to WiFi and it manages to send the mails before if crashes again..
FECK FECK FECK

Part of the "magical" Apple experience, huh?
