Is Gmail push broken in mail.app now since iOS8? I know you had to link your device before a certain date before, but now it just seems like it's completely busted, despite being on the same device.

xzzy posted:Has the youtube official app performance gone to poo poo lately for anyone, or is it just my 5 starting to show its age? Same problem here on my 5, so I'm not sure if it's limited to the 5's performance capabilities or not. Shouldn't be, considering how fast it used to be, and all we're doing is rotating the drat thing.

teraflame posted:Is there a plex-like app for photos? I don't use plex for pictures because it doesn't maintain folder structure and can't even organize by them. You can browse Plex libraries by folder structure if this makes a difference for you. I use it for my photos, and while the features are unbelievably sparse, it's not bad for simple libraries. It lets you organize by album, where you have a photos folder, and in there, there are folders of albums, and it will be smart enough to figure that part out, but beyond that, I don't think it will organize any further. It might work for you though; it's worth playing around with it for a bit.

tuyop posted:Can Overcast import files from my computer? Some podcasts I like aren't available as streams and you have to download and put them on your podcast app. It was working great with the Podcasts app but I've decided to forget getting that to work ever again. I had the same problem. I just tell iTunes that the mp3s are audiobooks and it...sorta works. Since they merged audiobooks into the iBooks app, it loses quite a few things that worked well when they remained in the music app. Like tracklists, and consistent playback resuming. It's probably the fastest way to get it back, but youll have to deal with seeing the track names as just 'Track 12'. Minor annoyance.

I bought sleepCycle the other night and wanted to know from other users if I have to set the alarm every night or if I can just schedule it.

Why in gently caress does the iBooks app lose track of progress? It can save it fine, take me back 40 minutes, or as much as 4 goddamn hours. Any fix to this?

I'm moving away from Evernote and grabbed Scanbot to replace Scannable. Scannable is amazing and works very quickly, and I see that Scanbot has a ton of features and tons of high praise, and will upload to my Google Drive. What I'm wondering, though, is how to configure it to apply the B/W filters and make it appear like a Scannable's scans instead of just a cropped photograph. Do I need to buy some plugin or something? Am I missing setting? I want it to behave how scannable does, but instead of using Evernote upload to my google drive instead. Anyone who uses this have suggestions?

My first gen iPad still streams Plex and YouTube perfectly. I don't use it for much else other than iBooks. I'd like to replace it with a retina iPad mini at some point but I'm in no rush.

eightysixed posted:Yea, but you have to use YouTube through Safari, because the app is no longer compatible, right? At least that's the cake for me. I haven't upgraded my youtube app for a while, mainly because I'm lazy. The native old YouTube iOS app I don't think works anymore, but the official YouTube app I have on here still works just fine. Glad I haven't upgraded if new versions break it.

maduin posted:I use Spotify and listen to full albums all the time and have no idea how people find it difficult to do. Same for me, though I moved back to iTunes this weekend to give my Apple Music free trial a shot. Pretty comparable so far, though the interface in iTunes is loving horrible. A tiny hidden hover-menu to add an album without viewing the whole thing at once, and half the time the context menu hover image is hidden or overlapped by something. Also iTunes will scroll my artists sidebar down about 15% everytime I love an item. Incredibly annoying. Took some time to match my followed artists and saved music, as well as uploading a few of my own albums that iTunes lacked, which is more than I expected. On the whole, Spotify and iTunes are probably 90% the same in terms of licensed music and artists, but some of the things one or the other are missing are loving weird. iTunes really surprised me with a few obvious things missing that Spotify had, and vice-versa. Right now, Spotify is a better bet for me because of web accessibility, social features like collaborative playlists, easier to use interface. But, I'm gonna try Apple Music for the 90 days; it has a few really nice things going for it. Siri is massive for me, much easier to upload your own music than on Spotify making it easier for me to have a complete library, and no hard limit that I'm on saved songs. Spotify caps users at 10,000 songs, but you can get around it with playlists, I am not aware of Apple Music limiting anything. Figured people might be considering alternatives right now, especially with Rdio going under. I used Google Music years and years ago right when it launched and thought it was pretty great that I could store all my music elsewhere, but it took a long, long time to upload everything, and the apps available at the time were terrible. Haven't looked at it since, but I know it's been improved.

tuyop posted:Lifehacker had some good guides on using apps for a GTD method last time I checked. You know this could be much, much easier for you. 1. Grab foobar2000 2. Grab the lame.exe 3. Rip CD with foobar 3. Point foobar to Lame when prompted in the converter section (only need to deal with this the first time you do it) 4. Set converter settings to output to a single file Once you have this setup which takes about 10 minutes, you can just open foobar, rip audio CD, and pick the converter profile you created for this. edit: added some real instructions and links Unacknowledged fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Dec 29, 2015 |

tuyop posted:You could also use VLC's wifi import, or listen in possibly Goodreader the same way, but I think GR doesn't save position in audio files. Wait what? How's that? You can just set the metadata in foobar before or after you rip it. If you're only going to create 1 file, just dont do any metadata work until its output, throw it in foobar, properties, add your artist, title, album data. Seconds of work, really. Foobar is pretty amazing for this type of stuff.

I had a few spare minutes at work and setup a portable foobar for you to try it out. Here's the process: 1. Open foobar, go to File > Open Audio CD. Hit the Rip button 2. When you hit the converter section, there should be a single default converter profile that I've setup for you. Use that, it will output all the tracks to a single V0 VBR mp3 (you can change that if you need to). 3. When you get to the stage of ripping it, it will ask where you want to output the file (which you can actually choose in the converter profile if you want to save it to the same place each time). 4. Next, it will ask you (one time only) to point it to the lame.exe file. I've put that exe inside the zip I've provided in: foobar2000/lame/lame.exe, just point it to that file's extracted location (wherever you wanted to keep your foobar installation) when it asks. It will remember it next time. Now you're done. Most of the setup is done, only requiring a couple of others since setting paths on my machine here would persist to yours and throw up some missing folder errors later. I don't mean to force this on you, but I do think you're putting in a ton more work than you need to for something like this. Download link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10868783/foobar2000.zip Virus free, I promise. Just a straight foobar installation with the lame files and the converter profile in there.

tuyop posted:Well, that's pretty awesome. Thanks, I'll give it a go. Ahh, didn't really realize it was multiple CDs. However, foobar can do the joining for you as well if you setup a new converter profile. You just make a playlist of your full audio CD tracks, however many, then right click > convert, choose your new profile for joining the tracks as one and you're good. I'm 90% sure the existing profile I made on there will work for that as well, so granted, you're encoding to lossy format twice, but with book audio it doesn't really matter. Should be easier than audacity by a long shot.
