iPhone apps S/D

email them photos instead of sending them to their phones.

It can be any format.

1. Note start and finish times of song
2. Reduce song length to 30s or less
3. Convert to AAC
4. Rename converted song ext to .m4r
5. Drag from filesystem to iTunes Ringtones section
6. Restore original song's length

I've tried this and it isn't working - I drag the file to the iTunes Ringtones section but it doesn't appear there. However, iTunes now keeps telling me that it can't sync the ringtone to my iPhone because I can't find it. I even tried manually creating a "Ringtones" folder in my iTunes library folder - that didn't work either. Any other ideas? (I'm trying to find instructions on iPhone forum, too...)

there was a brilliant site that explained how this worked, and i tried looking for it the other day to post here. couldn't find it, though. however: i did, categorically, link to it somewhere around these parts -- if not upthread here, then on one of the other iPhone or apple threads.

that's not a great deal of use, i know. and i can't remember how it differed from what AA posted there, which is pretty much what i remember doing myself.

yeah i used that site you linked and it worked like a charm

maybe it was this from schwantz:

Basically (in iTunes)

1. Set up the prefs to convert songs into AAC files. I think you also need iTunes set up to "Copy Files to iTunes Music Folder When Adding to Library."
2. Select a song, and get info on it. In the "Options" tab, set the in and out points you want.
3. Convert the track to AAC. It will convert only the section you set in the options. Go back in the options of the original track and un-set the in and out points.
4. Drag the new AAC file to the desktop. Change to file extension to m4r.
5. Double-click the file on the desktop. It should now show up as a sync-able ringtone in iTunes.
6. Don't forget to change the converter prefs back to mp3, or you'll end up with a bunch of crap AAC files in your library.

It's kinda ironic that I installed the Budget app cause the machine I run it on costs 525 euros here. hahahaha Ah well.

"Why is there no skype app yet?"

they are working on it. I think it's called Fring or sth.

Flickup is kinda crashing at times for me. :-(

fring is online, asis truphone.

do you still get charged minutes when youre talking to someone via the skype apps?

Huh? On your comp no if the other also uses skype. But I'm not sureo n my iphone. haven't tried it yet. I just installed it. :-)

yeah on the phone. i dont know why theyd give you an app that would make calls free?

if you call another country with it, I wonder if you just use normal minutes and skip the international rate.

nope that is the awesome beauty of these apps!

why would AT&T allow this? Am i missing something? am i being a dumbass?

they only work over wifi, not 3g.

OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH. GOTCHA

So what's the best drum machine app... iR-909?

Probably Beatmaker.

is NNW working for anybody? i sound like a freakin broken record here, but it won't even LAUNCH for me anymore. this was one of the first apps ever and i still can't even get it to approximate working. wtf!

working beautifully here, i have to say -- the newest version, whatever number that is.

if there anyway (maybe via app) to email more than one photo at a time?

my email is working ok

slocki, it might be a problem with the number of feeds you are trying to download? how many feeds do you subscribe to?

I must subscribe to 30/40 max and NNW ON IPHONE is fine for

Has anyone tried 4 tracks lite - the portastudio app?

New Byline looks even better, apart from shitty wood-effect theme. Byline 1.0 is v. good, and editable notes and folders gonna rock. NNW can GTF.

http://www.blogherald.com/2008/10/09/byline-20-the-iphone-app-for-google-reader-freaks/

byline 2.0 is still only $4

max, can we get an email update?

absolutely--email working fine but not the way id like it to. when will gmail get push notification? also when will my work use an IMAP server instead of POP3? i guess the deal is that i have to turn off push in order for fetch to work--and then when the phone is off it doesnt fetch every 15? i feel like i have more questions than answers at this point. i think i am putting up with what is normal on an iphone but who knows?

gmail pushes through for me?

thanks max

How's Google Earth?

email working ok still

thanks max

google earth: fun for five minutes. so, just like the desktop app, then.

Byline is awesome guys. Palringo def IM client right now

NNW has been painfully slow these past few days. byline is increasingly attractive but a) can't be fucked moving from newsgator to google; b) really don't want to give stet any further reasons to go "NYAH I WAS RIGHT" at me.

I like Earthscape, but it's slow and it currently suffers from "not enough users to make it useful" syndrome, like a lot of other apps with potential.

Is a total slap to move to Google Reader: just export yr feeds from NNW, and import them to Google Reader. Byline really rocks.

Earthscape's free at least. (Then again, I'm sure better earth browsing apps are free too)

is there any way to set up two gchat accts in fring?

I finally got a 3G compatible car charger, and now I can run my phone's headphone jack into the AUX port on my stereo. Pandora in the car = bliss.

did you get this one and if so how does it work?

Could the goddamn MMS "implementation" suck more? They give you a link with two gobbledygook things to enter, but you can't copy and paste. FAIL!

this is insane.

fwiw i found this http://iphone.macworld.com/2007/08/sending_and_receiving_mms_on_y_1.php

Would you want to read books on your iphone?

If I see 'YouTube not available' one more time I will fucking scream.

^^ is that because of no imbedding or because of poor connection on 3G or what

nfi, but it happens more than 50% of the time.

i get it all the time but im edging so not surprised. i like that i can read books on iphone because it makes me feel smug when i think about people who bought a kindle

hey when the "3G" turns to "E" does that mean i'm on the edge network?

i am v v tuomas on this thing i just bought it tuesday

yes it does

I would like an app that makes the iPhone look like a 5-year-old monochrome display Nokia so that when I get a text message on the bus I don't feel like a total bourgie prick breaking it out.
