The easiest way I've found to shuffle music is just to ask Siri: "Siri, shuffle all songs in My Music." You can also do it by artist so it's pretty neat.

Minidust posted:Does anyone have experience with different CarPlay-enabled head units? I'm wondering how much the user experience varies across devices in different price ranges. Or if it's more the type of thing where, if the unit supports it, the CarPlay performance is basically the same. If the latter is the case, I'll only have to think about display size and touchscreen quality (I've noticed there are a couple of capacitive units out there). I imagine performance is pretty much the same across units since it's not really doing much other than sending buttons presses to your iPhone. Performance in the non-CarPlay part might vary, though.

My Airport Extreme of 4 years is dying. Short story is the wireless networks keep disappearing (it is like they stop broadcasting), and it takes a reboot to get them working again. So my question is should I get a new Airport Extreme or should try a so-called better router like the Nighthawk for the same price? In the past I've had bad luck with AirPlay (iPhone or MacBook to Apple TV) and non-Apple routers, but that was years ago. What has been the experience of others with AirPlay and non-Apple routers?

I don't know but I bought the newest Extreme last year (my first Apple router) and I'm super pleased with the results.

I bought one of those "better" routers a few years ago and it's great. Just buy one around $150-$200 and it sounds like (based on Wirecutter reviews) you'll have good, comparable results to Apple's Airport Extreme.

I just installed a Pioneer AppRadio 4 in my car and it's great and I think the cheapest way to get CarPlay on an aftermarket head unit. It's got a multitouch screen too. I got mine for about $400 on Amazon.

You have to go to the pioneer interface, however it multitasks. The CarPlay interface is just another app that is running on it really. The Pandora app is a Pioneer app, so you can run that, then switch to CarPlay and use maps and the audio from Pandora still plays even though the app isn't active on the screen. Note: I've only done this with one device at a time (my phone using pandora and apple maps) and it all just works, but I don't see why it wouldn't work with a second device.

I have Pioneer AVIC-8100 NEX that I also got from amazon for $400. It works pretty well and I imagine it's the same experience on the other radios like the cheap Alpine carplay only one. Mine also has a capacitive screen and it responds very well. Highly recommend if you can get a good deal on it.

GutBomb posted:I gently set my iPhone 6 Plus face down on the garage floor today to act as a light as I was working under my car. It's in one of the Apple branded rubberized cases. When i picked it up afterwards I noticed a bad scratch on the white bezel above the screen. Oh well. I guess I deserved that, setting my phone face down on a garage floor. Even though the case sticks out a little bit in the front I guess it wasn't enough. But then I made a phone call about an hour later, and while I was on the phone I heard a crack sound. Looked at the glass and sure enough, a crack appeared perpendicular to the scratch going right through the middle of it. It still manages to avoid the actual screen area. Is the glass so weak that a scratch is going to weaken the glass enough to crack, or is this just a coincidence. Has anyone else experienced any "spontaneous" cracks? Michael Scott posted:This is really weird. I would talk to Apple. What's your warranty situation? Endless Mike posted:It's a 6+ so it's under warranty. WetSpink posted:In my experience spontaneous cracks can be from battery heat, possible if you used light for a long time maybe. Moms iPad just cracked with no trauma at all from battery heat, cracked bottom left though but iPad guts might look different. NyetscapeNavigator posted:I had a similar looking crack on my 6+ and it was covered under warranty. In case anyone cares, I took it to the Apple store last night and they swapped out the phone no questions asked and when they saw my case was peeling they just gave me a new case too.

Josh Lyman posted:Do you have just the normal warranty or AppleCare Plus? Regular warranty. They asked what brought me in,i pointed at the crack and she said "oh that's a hairline crack, that's covered at no cost to you" Then she said to come back in an hour and pick up my repaired phone. When I got back they said they had some trouble with the repair so just went ahead and swapped over to a new (I'm assuming refurbished) phone and surprised me with a new non peeling case.

Something fishy going on here noirstronaut posted:I'm gonna purposefully gently caress up my phone so I can try and get the geniuses to give me a new case. If your case just wore out on its own, you can probably just go get it replaced for free, those have a 1-year warranty too.

Apparently there's a new feature to automatically switch to cellular when Wi-Fi connectivity is weak. I hope it works well, that is easily my biggest iOS pet peeve.

So I pushed my phone to the new beta today and wow .. I have to say they really polished this from iOS 8. It seems to have much better memory management, I have not had apps reloading all over the place and stuff is just much more smooth. I was considering switching to a new android handset I bought but .. with my issues worked out so far I don't want to go back.

If you're looking at a single album then there should be a shuffle button above the tracklist. If you want to shuffle every song then go under "my music", put it in "songs" mode, play a song, then hit the shuffle button on on the control screen. You can't shuffle an artist if they have more than two albums and you can't shuffle a genre. The workaround is to make a playlist for the artist or the genre and then shuffle that. Basically the message is to stop keeping your own music library and subscribe to Apple Music instead. withak fucked around with this message at 05:09 on Aug 7, 2015 |

That message works well enough for me. I'm a match subscriber whose main computer died and took all my music with it. I'm terrified to find out what happens if I redownload it and cancel match.
