Which lead to the obvious photoshop, making me suspect that their ad agencies or creative types must be aware of what goes on at SA
Anyone able to help me figure out some odd behavior with Paper by 53 app and the Pencil stylus?

I'm left handed, trying to draw, and maybe every 20-30 seconds or so it seems like maybe the palm rejection doesn't work properly and seems to be multi-touching me out of the Paper app back to the home screen. I'm working on an iPad Air 2.

Is there some setting somewhere that I can tweak to let the device know I'm left-handed (if that's the problem)?

The problem is that the pencil stylus is junk and I'm sorry that you paid a lot of money for it.

Fortunately I didn't pay for it, but I did figure out the issue: multitasking gestures were on.

There's also an hdmi adapter for the iPad so you could just skip the Windows laptop completely, unless there's some esoteric reason everything has to go through it.

Yeah, being able to draw on the mirrored window with a SMARTBoard is a big plus. I would just use my MBA and QuickTime but the SMARTBoard is a piece of poo poo and won't work with my laptop at all (the projector is alright, though). So I can just project the iPad without a new dongle if I need to.

Yeah, student teacher, and that's not an option here. I actually use SMART Ink pretty regularly for literacy tasks and source analysis, it's fine because it just lets me draw on the internet.

I've opened SMART Notebook like, once. What a piece of loving poo poo software. I hear math teachers love it but I need that janky garbage like I need less whiteboard space (oh wait).

It's not terrible, but I'd only use it for the auto-lock feature to tell the truth, unlocking the computer can be just as cumbersome as entering a password. But I don't think it's quite ready to pull out of the oven just yet.

At one point when I was testing it last night, something got all messed up with it and I ended up having to hardboot to recover. Currently I don't have the OS X part running.

Anybody know of an app that can export the call logs? I've found a bunch but they all require local backups, I can't seem to find any that can do it from the phone. I'd like to get a CSV of my call history. Is that even possible?

You can't do this in an appstore app, there's no (legit) API offered to access this. Might be a jailbroken one to do it.

Apple originally pulled it after like a week and apparently finally decided it was okay and let it back in.

PhoneView or IExplorer

I use PhoneView constantly to keep a permanent rolling external accessible log of voicemails, call logs, and text messages.

Does other poo poo too.

Honestly I have no idea. I think maybe I just clicked on the first imgur app I saw way back when? I'm not an avid user, just when I'm bored on the train so it's always done the job. Now that I know there's an official one I'll probably end up switching to that. Thanks!

Why even bother, sticking with upit, or Awful App which will upload to imgur automatically from camera roll/photo library with a long-press, this feature is not present in the Android app, FYI.

This and I'm kinda mad that I updated to the new version from the oooooooold version which let you upload stuff fine, and in bulk to boot. Its biggest problem was that it kept forgetting your login and you'd have to enter your details again.

That's awesome. I was just looking for a way to easily upload camera photos, ideally from the Photos app, but I pretty much only upload images for use on here, so this is even better I guess.

PDF Expert is half off right now. Does it handle syncing any differently than Goodreader? If I make an annotation in Goodreader is has to sync the entire file again. Any chance PDF Expert does only the annotations? It sort of sucks having to reupload/download an entire 20mb file because of one highlight.

Cam someone help me with a problem? I use the apple Podcast app, and it's fine, but if I've been listening to a podcast and pause it, the Bluetooth handshake in my car makes the podcast play. I don't always or even usually have BT source active in my car, so the podcast could be playing for minutes or hours without me knowing it and it's a pain in the rear end to find where I left off.

Is this a problem with the App, my car stereo, or is that how it's supposed to work and I just have to be anal about turning off Bluetooth/STOPPING not pausing the app, stuff like that?

That's really weird and sounds like a problem with your car. Mine pauses whatever was playing through BT when I'm not on the BT source. I'm using the stock deck on a 2010 Mazda.
