7 Essential Apps for Grade School Students

In grade school, kids might not quite be ready to own a tablet or smartphone, but that doesn’t mean they can’t get something out of using mom’s or dad’s device every once in a while.
Apps can be a fun way to teach your children everything from how to write the alphabet to how to identify stars in the sky all under the guise of him or her having fun playing with a parent’s shiny toy.

Twitter’s iOS Upgrades Are Awkward, Helpful [REVIEW]

When you load up Twitter’s iPad update for the first time, chances are you’re going to think there’s something wrong.

The updated version of the iPad app abandons Twitter’s card-style layout — where tapping on a tweet would make it swipe in from the right side of the screen — for a much more space-filled design. Your navigation is limited to tapping on the four tabs on the side of the screen.

The space on the side of the tweets for your profile is uncomfortable, and the overall impression is that the app isn’t resizing properly to fit your tablet’s screen.

Design quibbles aside, Twitter has packed a number of enhancements into the iPad version of the app that will ultimately make you forgive its less-than-sexy look.
Photos and article summaries linked from tweets appear and disappear with a tap. This is a smooth and fast experience that definitely impresses on either device. 

An extra tap makes photos full-screen — so you can get an up-close-and-personal look at that cheeseburger your friend is having for dinner.

iPhone 5 Review Roundup: Apple’s New Baby Makes a Big First Impression

The iPhone 5 is set to hit store shelves on Sept. 21. A few lucky reviewers, however, have already gotten the chance to spend a few days with the device and craft their reviews of the latest-generation of the iconic smartphone.
So what are they saying?
Overall, reviewers are pretty impressed with the update. The phone’s hardware has earned accolades from every reviewer across the board — they love both how the new phone feels and looks.
Reviewers also laud the iPhone’s new 4-inch screen, although not all are in love with how some current apps — not yet having been adjusted for its new size — look on the latest device’s screen.

The same can be said for Apple’s new Lighting connector, which is able to transfer data faster than Apple’s previous connector. But the headache of not being able to use some accessories – and lack of support for iPod out, a specification used in many cars – was a problem for many.

AT&T’s FaceTime Blocking Leads to FCC Complaint

Three interest groups announced their intent to file a complaint with the FCC against AT&T, after the carrier said it would block Apple’s FaceTime from its cellular data service unless customers signed up for a particular plan.

Free Press, Public Knowledge, and the New America Foundation’s Open Technology notified (PDF) AT&T Tuesday of their intent to file a complaint with the FCC about “AT&T Inc.’s decision to block certain users from accessing the FaceTime application over AT&T’s mobile networks,” which the groups allege is a violation of Net Neutrality laws.

FCC rules require notification of intent 10 days prior to the actual filing of a complaint.
“AT&T’s decision to block FaceTime unless a customer pays for voice and text minutes she doesn’t need is a clear violation of the FCC’s Open Internet rules,” Free Press Policy Director Matt Wood said in a statement.

Tips To Save Battery On Your iPhone

iPhone & iPod

All iPhones are powered by a battery, and run from a hard drive. When the hard drive is processing information then it will spin, using power from the battery. This is applicable to all the iPod and iPhone models, including Touch, Nano and Classic. If you are finding that your power is going to quickly on your iPhone or iPod then you can benefit from following some of the very simple tips below.

Using the backlight effectively
Set your backlight to register for just a few seconds after usage. There is no need to have your backlight on for 30 seconds after you put the phone down, so adjust this one straight away. You can do this immediately by selecting the backlight timer from the iPod / i Phone menu settings. There are options for you to choose exactly how long you want your backlight to stay on for, and you can even remove in daylight altogether if not needed. You will be amazed how much battery you save by doing this. Far too often the main reason for quick battery loss is due to the backlight timer being on for too long.

Do NOT use .WAV or .AIFF music formatts
These files are far too large, and will normally result in your iphone skipping tracks and get your hard drive spinning frantically. If you avoid these then youwill have more free space, and better efficiency when playing music - therefore saving battery.

Locking your i Phone / i Pod
Do not underestimate how much power can be saved by using the sleep and wake buttons. Make sure that you lock your device every time that you are not using it. As with the back light you can go into the menu setting and if desired you are able to make these functions work automatically by selecting auto lock and choosing the length of time your phone should not be in use before changing to sleep mode. It is recommended that you do this as soon as possible.

Listening to Music Efficiently
Now that you know what files not to use when playing music (AIFF and WAV), you can continue to be more efficient! How many times have you been listening to music with your headphones only to remove then for a few minutes because someone enters a room and starts a conversation with you. Now, how many times have you removed the headphones and not thought to hit the "PAUSE" button to stop the track. By hitting the pause button you can save so much battery, especially if you are working in a busy office where you are being approached on a regular basis.
Get yourself some good headphones so that you do not need to set the volume to maximum.

Setting up Good Playlists
Playlists are usually created and then when it comes to playing them we find ourselves skipping through lots of songs in order to get to 1 that we want to hear. Most of the time half the songs on your playlists will not even get played! Take into consideration that skipping tracks and stopping songs etc takes uo much more battery as the hard drive is being stopped and started and does not process the information continuously. Make sure that your playlists are good so that you can avoid skipping away, and attract battery saving!

iPhone & iPod Apps
Don't leave your apps running in the background and always make sure that they are switched on when you have finished using your device. Apps can use a considerable amount of the battery and space on your iphone / ipod.

cant open I photo library on Mac Os 10.X

Resolution

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
