iPhone apps S/D

whoa didn't know this:

And dropbox knows if you're on the same network so it transfers files over WIFI instead of online if the computers are in the same place.

do you know any of the technical details? e.g. which protocol are they using?

nope

Is there a way to use Dropbox ONLY through the cloud? I don't want my personal files staying in my work computer.

Yes. Just don't install dropbox on your work computer. You can still log into the website.

Or you can manually tell the client on each machine which folders you do and don't want it to synchronise to that computer.

box.net meanwhile has 1) 100mb per file limit and 2) no desktop client software unless you pay for it.

there's a reason Steve Jobs offered dropbox 800 mil...

Yeh, the 100MB limit is kind of for shit when I'm trying to back up videos.

I will take another look at Dropbox.

Guys for real, how the fuck do I send email attachments? I know there's got to be a way with the right apps

I would love to know. I use an app for Gmail, which is way better than the built-in Mail app, but it doesn't allow attachments either.

Dropbox!

actually not sure what you want to do, but you can upload a photo or document from your iphone to dropbox, then share a link to it via email, all within dropbox.

have I mentioned DROPBOX!

If you like making music on your iPad I strongly recommend the Animoog app.

99 cents now, 29.99 soon. so get it soon.

It's fun x2.

I remember now the downside of Dropbox: 2GB capacity on the free version. I should have taken advantage of one of their big promotions.

OTOH, free Box=100MB max file size. Oh well.

I paid the 100/bucks for pro, and have gotten more space simply for suggesting so many people sign up.

is agenda the best calendar app, and tweetbot best for twitter?

I mean Dropbox can send links but I need to be able to keep PDFs of my references and resume on my phone and be able to speedily reply to Craigslist job postings on the fly. How to I shot?

So I got the iPhone 4S today, after having had the 3G for the last few years. What apps are worth getting that I didn't have access to before - any recs?

dropbox app should be able to handle all that stevie

Like emailing as an actual attachment? It can't, unless I'm missing something. You can only email links to the file.

- find thing you want to attach
- open it
- choose the option to send it by email
- a new email opens with thing attached to it

Going the other way round (i.e. starting an email before attaching something) is more intuitive but you can't do it that way. Also you can only choose to email something if the app allows it. I know right.

I think Stevie might want to be able to attach a document to a reply to another email?

Stevie, if you're emailing from a link in a CL ad, you could copy the email address and then do what AA said and paste it to the To field.

yeah you cant do it directly--you download the PDF to ibooks (or the picture to photos) and then from there you can email it

and, no, you can't attach a file from a new email or reply email--it has to be done from w/in another file-management program

Any good file mgmt apps that allow multiple attachments?

um, being dumb

how do I refresh calendars in agenda on iOS?

The Animoog is incredible. Thanks for that!

cozen - think you might need to shut it down completely (ie in the 'dock' at the bottom) and then re-open. Bug, i think.

Tempus >> Agenda >>>>>> Calvetica 4 >>> Calendar

why do people like words with friends? i didn't realize it was the same as scrabble so my wife and i downloaded it and were like uhhhh this is just a shittier version of scrabble. we didn't even finish a game. is it just because it's free?

i think people like it because it's like scrabble.

actually like scrabble with more scoring.

asynchronous online multiplayer ie play by mail

but there's a scrabble app, that actually looks nice and works well and is good! idgi

scrabble app doesn't let you play by mail, unless they've updated since I last played

who cares? i don't really get when that would come in handy? just not for me, i guess ...

welcome to 2011

i'm pplains on ww/f. available to play any ilxor whose name isn't wmc or dom passantino.

so you can play scrabble with a number of friends while idling on the bus?

yeah?

yup

seems fairly straightforward. not sure what's to get

scrabbles fun. wwf let's you play wherever and whenever you have an internet connection

scrabble app is cool too, not fronting, just doesn't have online MP. never mind asynchronous online MP, which would seem to me the key feature of any iOS board game

animoog is so rad.

ya

The scrabble app does have online multiplayer. And does the same Facebook integration that wwf does.

For local play, scrabble on the iPad and using the tile rack app on iPhones is awesome.

The Scrabble app seemed much more sluggish to me than WWF, so I deleted it.

Scrabble isn't available in some countries either, unlike wwf, n/a

yes it is not available or "n/a"

i thought with s1ocki gone i would be able to claim the crown as king of dad jokes but now he's back :(
