Didn't work

I've got songs on iTunes... ?

If i sync they don't go onto the phone tho...

 

[swordjo]

Drag the ones you want onto the music section of the phone.

 

[AK]

Doesn't work...

Is it cause they are 'acquired' songs... i.e. i never paid for them ...

They play fine on itunes tho...

Be sure and select the correct options within iTunes, click on your iPhone which should be listed on the left of the screen.

I generally make 1 playlist with all tracks I would like on my iPhone and then select this to sync to it.

 

[AK]

Did a playlist then when i drag it over the iphone and then over the music part it puts a red circle with a line through it

 

[sneeks]

Select it within the Playlist option of the iPhone settings in iTunes.

 

[Sarah]

I too made a playlist.."Iphone playlist" then just put stuff in there and sync that. I found that easier.

for ringtones download iRinger. Can make your own tune from any MP3 and it will import to Itunes as a ringtone for you, then just sync the phone again (make sure you tick the box for ringtones lol)

Can't change text/mail sounds unless you jailbreak.

 

[AK]

Lol cheers

There's nothing in the App store called iRinger?

Or access Audiko on your computer, search for the ringtone you'd like, download this and then add it to iTunes. Select to sync the ringtone in the iPhone options in iTunes.

How do I turn 3g off? I've only been up an hour and it's already on 91% battery lol?

Also do the charging docks work with a case on, and where's the best place to get one?

Ta

 

[sneeks]

3G shouldn't be draining your battery if you are in a area with good 3G coverage. My iPhone has been on for 1.5 hours and during that time I've checked email, listened to the iPod for a hour and the battery is at 97%.

3G can be turned on/off in General-Network settings.

lol, you download it on your PC not the phone, sorry should have said it's not an app

Turned it off now, I'm on 68% just now and all I've done is send a few texts ...

Wi-fi, Location Services and 3G all turned on.

 

[Sarah]

Im on usage 2 hrs 39 mins
Standby 4 hrs 11 mins

50% left

 

[AK]

Mine lol

I dunno how to crop properly lol

 

[sneeks]

That's not bad at all.

 

[AK]

That's not bad at all.

Really? Lol fair enough I'll quit complaining and get buy a charger for work lol

 

[sneeks]

Usually by 4.5 hours of usage my iPhone battery is nearly dead so your current reading is perfectly OK.

 

[AK]

Does sound about right lol

 

[sneeks]

Looks fine. All depends on what you are using the iPhone for. Browsing and video playback will obviously drain the battery far quicker.

 

[AK]

Good stuff.

How do I stop it cropping the pictures?! It's not letting me show the whole screen when uploading with Tapatalk?

 

[AK]

Is there a way to set up groups? i.e. text groups?

When i go into contacts and groups all it says is all contacts, all on my iphone and MACo (my work) global address list (which is imported from my e-mails being synced i think..

 

[rctempire]

Did you sync the phone with exchange then?

 

[AK]

Yes.

 

[rctempire]

Can use Gcontacts ive been told.

I would do it in outlook under your personal contacts
