Ekona Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 Lucky sod! I admit, iTunes isn't the be all and end all, but once you understand how it works and just let it get on with it, it's absolutely fine. I have all my music running from a NAS, with a single iTunes library that updates from either my PC or Jo's iMac. It accepts stuff from my iTunes account or hers, ripped CDs, or dodgy stuff I get from the interweb. Was it a faff setting it up? Yes, but only because I was trying to force it to do something that it wasn't designed for. Once I figured that out, and guided it on its way, it was more than happy. Half the trouble with moving from Windows/Linux stuff to Apple stuff is that you're so used to bodging everything, that you can't accept that there's a program that has s singular way of doing things. I used to love telling Win where to install stuff, as I wanted it in specific places to make my life easier. I can't do that with Apple stuff so easily, so it's best just to let it do its own thing and then you find it's actually a terrific piece of software.

Lexx Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 See various claims online that the 6 is developing a bend if kept in a pocket when sitting down etc. Probably BS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZEUS Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Does anybody know if the iPhone 6 will connect to the standard Bose Bluetooth in my 350, before I get one and then realise I need a new head unit too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humpy Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 The below was posted from a friend on stalk book - well it made me chuckle. My favourite quote on the apple watch so far "It’s a gaudy wristband aimed at raising awareness of Chinese factory conditions. Or a handy visual tag that helps con artists instantly identify gullible rich idiots in a crowd". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question and I found out the hard way when I upgraded my phone to the Sony Xperia and my head unit and it was a no go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gangzoom Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Regardless of if you like the iPhone 6 or not (am not a fan, wouldn't be getting one), Apple is selling shed loads, and making £££ on each one. Unlike other companies Apple seems to be able to defy economics, and make their products more expensive with each upgrade but still they sell like hot cakes.......so frankly I really don't think Tim Cook cares one bit about people comparing the iPhone 6 to older android phones Personally I think smart phones have reached their design peak, hence they are all looking the same, and I think Apple knows this.....hence the Apple Watch was the focuse of the Tim Cooks presentation a few weeks ago. As for the Apple Watch, that does look like a massive step forwards compared to all the other 'smart' watches. I cannot wait to get one regardless of cost, I'm glad Apple made it comparable with the iPhone 5, I would have bought a iPhone 6 just so that I could get the watch....so call me a Apple fanboy but it's my money and I love spending it on useless gadgets Edited September 24, 2014 by gangzoom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bockaaarck Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I had a look at the iphone 6 at the Apple store in Bath a couple of days ago. If I'm honest it felt cheap, I was rather underwhelmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fodder Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 My OH said to me this morning "Your phone will end up moob shaped" while they were talking about it on the radio.
