iOS 4 Nike+iPod Problems

So, I’m all ready to go out for my run this morning, so i start my nike workout on my iPod Touch 4th Generation (Review coming soon) and I walked in circles for about fifteen minutes while my iPod tried to detect my sensor. I finally gave up and ran without it. But i was frustrated. I was wondering why the sensor wasn’t detected when it was so quickly detected the night before when the two times I tried. I researched for about an hour and I found the similar problem was happening with all iOS4 users. The iPod would detect the sensor the first couple of times but after that it would not detect that at all. I have addressed apple on the situation but it seems as if they were notified about it a long time ago but nothing has been done yet. The good news is that the problem is NOT a HARDWARE problem, so it can be fixed with a simple update released from apple. But they need to be aware of this issue so if you are having the same problem please call apple support and “act” like your a expert and make them aware of the issue. Apple won’t jump over a few reviews but they sure will over a few hundred!

(P.S. I have received the new iPod Touch and the review will be coming soon along with a HD video test)

The Final Roundup of the Apple Music Event 2010

I am deeply sorry this post took so long but it is finally ready, i have been researching a lot :)

• New iOS software made for iPad
• All new iPods
• New iTV

New iOS 4.2 Software | “It’s all about the iPad”

iOS 4.1 hasn't even been released yet (the current software for iPhones and iPad’s is version 4.0.2), and iOS 4.2 still isn’t coming till November-but Steve Jobs thought it couldn’t wait. The upgrade will bring the iPad up to speed with the latest user look and app innovations that have been available on the iPhone for many months. Wireless printing has finally come to the iPad and is expected to result in a large boom from consumers. Airtunes name was changes to Airplay because as Steve Jobs said "We’re changing the name of Airtunes to Airplay, and it’s not just music anymore. You can stream all kinds of media anywhere in your house.” All the features of iOS4, including folders, multitasking, and more will also arrive when it's released in November. Also, Apple announced the upcoming release of iOS 4.1, which will fix many bugs and bring some new features to the iPhone 4. The biggest new feature is the support of High Dynamic Range photos (HDR). This is new imaging software that takes three photos in fast succession-one normal, one under-exposed and one over-exposed. It then combines the three to give you an better image.

The iPod Touch 4th Generation | “A new way to touch”

The long awaited iPod Touch 4th Generation was finally announced. All the features include facetime, music, mail, voice control, voice memos, retina display, movies, TV shows, safari, maps, accessibility, app store, photos, youtube, HD video recording, still photos, home screen, gyroscope, iTunes, game center and built-in Nike-iPod. Also available for purchase at the app store are iMovie and iBooks.

Yes its true, apple finally did add a camera to the their beloved iPod Touch. The front camera is made for Facetime, apple’s new video chat network that now runs over wi-fi. The rumors that there is no still camera on the new iTouch are false. There is in fact a HD video camera and a still camera. The new iPod now just in took over %60 of apples sales last Monday. I have no choice but to also say the bad news about the new iTouch, although there is a still camera, apples dirty little secret is that the camera is only 0.7 mega-pixels. It is sad and frustrating but when you hold the new iPod it is unbelievable that they fit a camera in this in the first place! It is a ‘wopping’ 0.28 inches thick, it is the smallest MP4 player in the world.

My next post will be a review and HD video camera test with the new iPod, because I am awaiting for the shipment of my iPod’s now.

Other iPods introduced are the new iPod Nano and Shuffle (Pictures on the right).

Its Happened

You are going to hear it here first. Apple has not let us down this year. They have refreshed their entire iPod lineup and it is in store next week. The iPod Touch has dual cameras, facetime, A4 processor and retina display. The prices of the touch are 8GB/$229 32GB/$299 64GB/$399. The iPod Shuffle click wheel has been welcomed back to the product and is now half the size of the 2nd generation. It is priced at $49. The iPod Nano is probably the most praised item coming out of the event this year. The new Nano is half the size of the old one and has a multi-touch interface. It also has a clip like the iPod Shuffle. A short, sweet and too the point post, apple has done it again.
