Just got the Iphone (3G) and iPod Touch (both still in the box) and don't know what to do for a "beginner" setup.

So what or what should I do, there's too many stuff out there but where to start...


Should I jailbreak it or leave as is......WHAT!?!?


What recommendations is necessary??
 
Check out Slickdeals.net for the U200 code that gives you free 200mins a month, I added it about a month ago. Might be hard to get now but well worth a try.Any NTers already got it?
 
Nevermind guys, i'm hearing the code is dead. If something comes around again i'll let you all know.
 
Quick question. Is there anyway to stop the iPhone from auto-correcting certain words while composing SMS texts? It auto-corrects cuss words and other words itdoesn't know even after I press the "x".

Apple does not allow for programs to run in the background. They're working on a Push Notification service, but as of now once you close itit's closed as far as the program goes.

[h2]OpenClip says iPhone firmware 2.1 breaksit[/h2]

Anyone getting used to the cross-app clipboard framework for the iPhone wrought by OpenClip, heads up: your party might be drawing to anend. The organization says that apps no longer have access to the common storage areas of other apps in the latest beta of firmware 2.1, which basically putsthe kibosh on the very reason OpenClip is able to do what it does. They're throwing around a couple ideas -- one of which would involve creating afunky-looking contact in your address book to marshal data between apps, while another would see data get pushed to a server, a move that Apple wouldeffectively be unable to stop. Then again, with rumors still fresh that real copy / paste iscoming in 2.1, maybe these guys want to hold off for just a bit to see what happens.

Googlesearch

Regarding the topic of insurance, a Google search only returned a rumor that the iPhone would be covered, but that rumor was shot down. Turns out at&t isextending insurance to PDA phones (w/ an increased deductible), but the iPhone is still excluded. Of course, this was supposed to have taken effect some timein the past couple of months so, your best bet is to check out at&t's website or give them a call.

I've been using beejive for a year now on my iphone and it always keeps me signed on even when I'm on stand by or silent. I checked too on my other snson the computer to see if the iPhone still kept me signed on. Does not notify you though but refreshes once you load up the webpage to see if you got a new aimor not.

Have you checked in any iPhone forums?

My guess is that you won't be able to use it until it can be unlocked, just like those people that want to use it with T-Mobile here in the states.

even when i try to get my email manually it doesn't always update


Have you tried deleting the account and setting it up again? What e-mail service are you using? Have you searched online to see if other people are having thesame issue?
 
Is there anyway to delete the default Apps that come with the phone ? (iTunes, YouTube, etc..)
 
With Apple's announcement that thecompany will be holding a special media event on September 9th, we're reminded that Kevin Rose was the first source of the September 9th date.

Rose originally reported that we would see new iPodnanos and small cosmetic changes to the iPod Touch in September, but also revealed that iTunes 8 would arrive as a "big update" with new features.Later when he revealed the September 9th date, he described a new musicrecommendation feature within iTunes 8, but gave few details. An anonymous tip has since suggested that this "genius playlist" feature would be ableto generate a playlist based on the qualities of a selected song, giving a Pandora-like experience with your own musiclibrary. This, however, remains unconfirmed and is published for interest only.

Finally, Rose said yesterday thatiTunes 8.0 have new "trippy" visualizations with one described as "planet like objects wrapping around each other with stars/lightstreams".

Apple's media event takes place at 10am Pacific time on September 9th, and according to Cult of Mac, Apple has uncharacteristically told at least one journalist that the event is "a big deal and [he] should try to bethere".

Update: A new blog post claims this is"what's new" in iTunes 8:

iTunes 8 includes Genius, which makes playlists from songs in your library that go great together. Genius also includes Geniussidebar, which recommends music from the iTunes Store that you don't already have.

With iTunes 8, browse your artists and albums visually with the new Grid view; download your favorite TV shows in HD quality from the iTunes Store; sync yourmedia with iPod nano (4th generation), iPod classic (2nd generation), and iPod touch (2nd generation); and enjoy a stunning new music visualizer.
 
So my iPhone is stuck at the initial loading window.. and every so often it vibrates twice... do I need to "reformat" this thing and start over

^ yes you need to restore. Probably in the process of you trying to delete your youtube, mail and itunes etc you mess up the procedure to start up yourspringboard. Its not safe to delete the stock apps that come with the iphone, i jailbroke and unlock my 2g and i use this program off cydia called categoriesand i just move them into one folder, so its not cram everywhere.
