So I'm trying to back up my girlfriends phone to my PC. I did so a while ago and encrypted it, but of course I can't remember the password. I have no use for the existing backups on the PC, but it won't let me disable the encrypted backups without the password. I deleted all of her previous backups off the PC and just want to do non-encrypted backups from now on, but it keeps asking me for a password. Is this possible to do without restoring her phone?

Has anyone gotten a Chase card to work? I have the same Amazon Visa card and it isn't supported for me either. Only my Costco Amex was.

Here's one of the better slo mo videos I've captured with the 6. I like how it turns kids screaming into whales communicating underwater. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05pRpWfKW7k

As you said, you have to specifically select Slo Mo in the camera app. When you go to watch the video, you'll see sliders underneath the progress bar. Move the sliders to the section you want in slo mo.

If I try to edit a playlist the songs I add won't stay. If I try to change the play order songs will duplicate, disappear, etc. and the edits won't take effect. Yep this happens to me all the time and is really loving annoying.

Tried Apple Pay for the first time at Jack in the Box last night. I held my phone close to the sensor, the Touch ID thing came up. I scanned my fingerprint like 8 times and it said "cannot process payment" like 8 times before I just gave the dude my CC. Am I supposed to be doing anything other than just scanning my finger print?

Bouchacha posted:My 4S which I bought about 2-3 years ago keeps cutting shutting down at around 20-30% battery life randomly. One time it shut down with 28%. Last night I was looking at it and the battery went from 53% to 0% and then shut down and wouldn't start unless I plugged it in. I plugged it in just enough for it to boot up and it showed 28% charge, then a 37% a minute later when I checked again. Wtf is going on? Should I just replace the battery? Your battery is dying. A battery replacement, or a new phone are your solutions.

These are the literal best Lightning cables out there, and semi-cheap as well. The only downside is the connector piece you hold is fatter than the one on the Apple, so you have to be careful if your case covers the bottom of your phone.

I think I ran out of space after 3 photos and 1 video. 5GB is absurdly too small, and the reason why my phone hasn't been backed up since like the second week I had my 6. It's too annoying to plug in and clean off on a weekly basis.

banana allergy posted:Software updates exist to make your phone better. A phone will usually handle several major updates until it starts to suffer, and by then it's essentially no longer state-of-the-art hardware and you need to decide whether you want to pay for the new fast thing or hang onto the old one until it gives out. Except when new versions run like poo poo on old hardware. My girlfriend has a 4S and iOS 8 runs AWFUL on it, and of course there's no way to downgrade.

I just cleaned most of the pics and all of the videos off my phone. I'm left with 178 pics, yet when I go into iCloud settings, it says that my next backup requires 6GB of storage for my camera roll. It seems that Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Sharing both doesn't count against the iCloud storage, so I'm stumped as to how I need 6GB for 178 pics and no videos. Any ideas?

From a number of pages ago, but I figured this out. Apparently, the "Recently Deleted" album contained a shitload of phantom photos from a long time ago. They disappeared form showing in the album, but they actually still existed somehow. I rolled the date back on my phone a few years, and they magically appeared. There was about 1000 pics, including tons of burst photos. After I deleted these (manually, why the gently caress is there no mass select option yet?), my Camera Roll went down to a more reasonable 400MB.

So regarding the restrictions menu, is there an easy way to toggle them on and off? Say I want to block my son from watching stupid videos of other people playing Minecraft (YouTube app deleted, and Safari disabled in restrictions), but want to be able to easily toggle it off if I use the iPad? Going a couple menus deep in the settings, entering the restrictions passcode, then re-enabling the Safari slider then doing the reverse when I'm done is a bit cumbersome to keep doing over and over. Is there an easier way? Or perhaps a better way of restrictions? I'd like to avoid real parenting if possible.

Duckman2008 posted:Specific Answer: Thank you. One follow-up question: I am the one currently on ATT. My work has 3G repeaters inside the building, so I don't get LTE when I'm here. If I get a Verizon phone, will it also be able to use ATT's 3G bands? And just to clear up the why-the-hell-are-you-buying-a-Verizon-phone question, my girlfriend is on Verizon. She has a piece of poo poo 4S with a dying battery and needs a new one badly. I'd buy a 6S using her Verizon account, then give her my 6 and do the SIM swapping. I am on ATT unlimited data, so I still have to wait 2 years to upgrade my line. So I guess my ATT 6 would have to work on Verizon, and the Verizon 6S would have to work on ATT.

Trying to find the best way to get my girlfriend on my account in a mobile shared plan. - She is currently on Verizon, out of contract. - I am on ATT with an unlimited data plan. I am willing to give up my unlimited, because going on their 15GB shared plan would save us both money per month. - She wants to keep her number. - I am not upgrade eligible, but she has no interest in paying for the new phone. I have a 6 that I would give her, and I'd take the new phone. Do we have to buy a 6S using her name/number, and just select ATT as the provider? Then later can I add her phone to my account, then SIM swap so I get the 6S and she gets my 6?

banana allergy posted:I would add the new line at time of purchase (you can buy it basically however you like) and port her phone number over then. That'll activate the new phone's SIM card on her number immediately and all you'll need to do is swap SIMs out. Back your 6 up ahead of time so you can erase it and give it to her to set up as soon as her number is on it. So it'd just be like me buying a new phone and adding a new line to my account? Is there an option to port a number over after selecting a new line? Or do I have to call ATT to get that done after I get the phone?
