zoothorn Posted October 28, 2020 Author Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) @ProDave and @Onoff sorry I didn't realise there was an apple store in aber! Im sure an 'essential shop' so bound be open.. wobbly table.. that's pretty obscure/ over my head as intended Im sure. [sorry ProDave.. I meant to put @Declan52 not you, & I cant undo it!] Giggle on at me.. no prob admitting I'm a total idiot at new ipads (& wm's) & building stuff compared to y'all. thx zH Edited October 28, 2020 by zoothorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan52 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I think you have to make an appointment to visit an apple store to get anything looked at by their jedi masters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Chrome is a much better browser than Safari. About 6 months ago I switched to Chrome on my iPhone after experiencing major problems with Safari and no problems since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi daiking.. easier said than done, I did try, i think someone else suggested going on apple forum to ask, but it needs a mob phone number.. and mine's so old its screen says 'registration failed ' or something, i last used it 2 yrs ago / lives in car for emergencies you see.

But as to actually doing it, without being able to Apple register, Im at a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIM registration has failed then and that phone no longer works. Go to Asda and get an Asda sim and put that in it and register it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a small sim card in, and i used to buy vigin top up card, so it was on a prepay £10 card thingy till it ran out, buy another etc. Not a monthly affair.

And @daiking the ipad seems working fine in 'private' mode too, even weak signal from hub (old thick wall behind me in new top room prolly). Can someone help tho similar thing: I've recorded 2mins of video (just my rotten ASHP motor noise last night) I need to send via email, but try 'attatch' but pop-up says "How do you want to share this file?" then "This file is too large.. try sharing with Onedrive". So I cant attatch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daiking Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Just catching up again with this. Nokia 3410? I remember selling those in 2003(!) when I worked for a Telco ?. Sort of glad the browser frig is still working but at some stage you will surely need to attach the thing to an Apple ID so that you can update the things you use. No idea on the windows thing with email though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoothorn Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 @Onoff checking back this morning.. its still stuck on 257 of 269 mb. So close. Not sure if this way works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterW Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Redo it - sounds like a lost connection during the upload. only other way is to resize the video and tbh that is near impossible without a PC and uploading it to a different online conversion service.
