How to read PDF files on iPhone via Safari instead of lame email attachments « Pimm - Partial immortalization The 2 main drawbacks to reading PDFs on the iPhone are the must-send-it in email in order to store and open “solution” and the user-unfriendly, landscapeless left-right scrolling reading mode. Not anymore. Both problems can easily be overcome with the help of a Safari browser hack using the almost forgotten data: URI schemes. From now on you can store and open your PDF files (and many others) in the iPhone’s Safari browser even in the Wi-Fi- and EDGE-less airplane mode and you can read PDFs in a landscape mode with only 1 one pich (that fits a column) and significantly less left-right scrolling in a much more satisfying, although not yet perfectly manner. Here I show you in 4 steps how to do so. 1. 2. 3. 4. The same algorithm with screenshots: I’d like to thank for W. Here is Peter Meyers’ diagnosis in length: First, the only way to permanently store and view a PDF is to email it to yourself and then open the attachment.

Impact Of Social Media On Meetings & Events - SlideShare Secret New iPhone Features | Mossblog | Walt Mossberg | AllThingsD One of the nice things about the iPhone is that, like the iPod, it can be easily updated by Apple with new features and bug fixes. When such new software is available, you are notified the next time you plug your iPhone into your computer and the new stuff is downloaded into the phone automatically. Apple issued its first iPhone update this week. In the Favorites list in the Phone module, the iPhone’s equivalent of a speed-dial list, you can now have 50 entries instead of 20. I’m sure readers have found some other secret features in this first iPhone update. Email me at mossberg@wsj.com.
Walt Mossberg's Got a Secret - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) No, I'm not talking about anything bad. Actually, its very good -- secret iPhone features! Yes, as usual Walt Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal digs deep into all-things-Apple and reveals some hidden features included in the recent 1.0.1 iPhone firmware update. Sadly, these "secret" features don't include some of the ones I, and others, would like to see, such as the ability to text message more than one person at a time or an IM client. But even though they might not be fantastic, earth-shattering enhancements, they still, as Mossberg points out: "make the iPhone nicer to use." Some of the "secret" features found by Mossberg include the capability of having 50 favorite numbers in the phone application instead of the previous 20, the option to BCC yourself in the mail application instead of just CC, and the ability to now play music through previously incompatible car adapters and speakers originally designed specifically for the iPod.

Switching from the Treo to the iPhone (Usability Issues and Getting Things Done) Update: I bought an iPhone, and I've successfully switched from the Treo. More posts to follow. Like many users of the Treo, I'm considering switching to the iPhone, but I have a few reservations. Following the GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology, I've become used to rapidly creating lists and tasks. I'm concerned that the iPhone, with its touch screen keyboard and inability to cut and paste text, is not well-suited for word processing, business, and productivity applications -- but I'd like to be proved wrong. This post is an updated compendium of opinions and impressions of iPhone users. (Suggestions for links and reviews would be appreciated.

Insanely Great News Filemarks let you store high res images, text files, and PDFs on an iPhone!

iPhone Problem Solved: When iPhoto Stops Syncing / Importing Photos Before I bought my iPhone I sold my Canon Elph digital camera A) In anticipation of using the "First Apple digital camera to be released since 1997" (The Apple Quicktake 200 digital camera was discontinued in 1997) B) So as to raise funds to make my iPhone purchase. I got $260 on eBay for a package that included my camera and a few accessories. I made a commitment to the iPhone camera before I even purchased my iPhone to use the camera as my one camera source. About 10 days ago I experienced my first iPhone problem. iPhoto just randomly stopped syncing with my MacBook. This problem is indicative of the "import button" in iPhoto being grayed out and "unclickable". As with ANY problem, before troubleshooting, make sure you have your computer backed up - in particular your iPhoto libraries and pictures. Since I'm in local area technical service for the iPhone as an AT&T employee I tried the following: Check for syncing ... working? Still didn't work? If this worked ... iPhoto is corrupt.
