Can somebody help me out here? I've been trying to download the photos off my iphone 6+ for a while now. Whether I use itunes, find the device and open the photos folder under devices, or use the windows photo app, it will only show me the last few photos I've taken, instead of the thousand that are actually on the phone. It will even show that the drive on the device is nearly full, but again when I try to DL it only shows like 8 of the last photos. My phone is lagging like a mofo because of this. I've Google searched and tried all the ways it's supposed to work.

Thanks!

when you plug in the phone, do you get the Windows pop-up box asking what you want to do? At that point you should choose "Open Device to view files", and proceed as follows:









For whatever reason it places images and videos into separate folders like that - you have to copy each one separately for best results. If you try to copy the whole thing at once, it usually stops prematurely.

This is on Windows 7, I haven't tried it on 8 or 10.

Oh also, you have to go into each folder separately, and let the folder populate with files, wait until that finishes, then select all and copy.

If you use Lightroom, you can download them with it.

Keyboard sounds - Keyboard sounds have been slightly tweaked. Space and backspace now have distinctive sounds unique from other key press sounds.
About damn time! That should've been in iPhone OS 1

I got ios 9.3. When i press 'define' on a word and go to 'manage', online instructions say there should be dictionaries in all languages to choose from. I have only English and 'apple dictionary'. no icloud icons, no list.

No where online am i finding a similar situation.

any ideas?

Same here; I'm on 9.3.4.
It may be a function of the language used in "Settings"-- my phone is set only for English.
You can try adding a language to the phone or keyboard to see if that gives additional language choices on "define."

I did last night actually, whole digging into every possible path into settings. i added french. The phone went into a black screen saying "upgrading languages" and then once it was done. I tried. still. I rebooted, same.

now i read ur post, went to test it, i got all language dictionaries listed.

Thanks!

It's a bokeh of upper 1/3 of Apple logo. Though there could also be new/updated colors.

The bokeh might be referring to the rumored dual lens option for the camera.

My gf's 5S was having the same issues, had to do a restore to newest IOS and that alleviated the problem a bit. Then she dropped her phone and shattered the screen. No more battery problem

I really appreciate that. I found a 4s at my parents house. Will resort to that when I can't handle these glitches any more.

Amazon leaked that indeed there's no headphone jack. Imagine they swap out the space for micro SD slot. Steve Jobs would be so pissed he'd be the first zombie.
