New iPod Touch

The new iPod Touch has been announced which included the FaceTime video calling facility (over wi-fi) which has previously only been available on the iPhone.

The new high-resolution (960x640) screen features the new Retina display, which makes the screen look amazing. That's because the Retina display's pixel density is so high, your eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which means images in games, films and photos leap off the screen. Text in books, web pages and email is crisp at any size.

The new Pod Touch captures video with two built-in cameras. It shoots amazing HD video from the back camera. And when you’ve finished shooting, you can edit and share your movie in just a few taps.

The iPod Touch is the most popular portable game player in the world. And with tens of thousands of games and other applications in almost every category just a tap away at the App Store, the iPod Touch has more games than any other platform.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


New iPod nano

The new iPod nano has been completely redesigned with Multi-Touch - the same technology that makes the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch so amazing. And it's also half the size.

Show off your album art, photos and the colour-coordinated wallpaper on the 1.5-inch colour display with 240x240-pixel resolution.

The new built-in clip makes it easy to move to the music. Just clip the iPod nano to your sleeve, jacket or bag.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


iPod Shuffle

The iPod shuffle is incredibly small, but it comes with 2GB of memory - enough for hundreds songs.

The iPod shuffle is now crafted from a single piece of aluminium and polished to a beautiful shine, so the new iPod shuffle feels solid, sleek and durable. And the colour palette makes it the perfect fashion accessory. Choose gleaming silver, blue, green, orange or pink.

It also includes the new VoiceOver feature: Say you're listening to a song and want to know the title or the artist. With the press of a button, VoiceOver tells you as the music dips down. And when your battery needs charging, VoiceOver tells you that, too.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


iPod Classic

With 160GB of storage, iPod classic gives your music and video room to move. The new iPod classic lets you enjoy up to 40,000 songs or up to 200 hours of video wherever you go.

Now with Cover Flow. Browse through your music and video collection by flipping through album art. Select an album to turn it over and see the track list.

Beautiful, durable, and sleeker than ever, the iPod classic now features an anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel enclosure with rounded edges.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPod Store.

 


iPad

Imagine being able to page through websites, write an email, flick through photos, or watch a film. All on a big, beautiful, multi-touch screen.

The iPad is the best way to experience the web. View whole web pages in portrait or landscape on the large Multi-Touch screen with vibrant colour and sharp text at a size that's actually readable. When you rotate the iPad to landscape, the page you’re viewing rotates too, then expands to fit the display.

You'll find thousands of apps on the App Store specifically designed for the iPad. And the iPad can run almost all the 200,000 apps for the iPhone and the iPod touch.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPad Store.

 


iPhone

The new iPhone is less than 10mm thick, and has a stainless steel case. It has a front-facing video camera which allows video calls.

The new "Retina" display is the sharpest, most vibrant, highest-resolution phone screen ever, with four times the pixel count of previous iPhone models. In fact, the pixel density is so high that the human eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which makes text amazingly crisp and images stunningly sharp.

It is now possible to shoot high-definition movies. Capture impressive video even in low-light settings, thanks to the advanced backside illumination sensor and built-in LED light. Then edit and create your own mini-masterpiece right on iPhone using the new iMovie app.

Available now from the Amazon UK iPhone Store.

Legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz endorses iPhone - MacWorld

Renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz tells her friends to buy an iPhone when they ask her what kind of camera to buy writes Ben Camm-Jones for MacWorld. Speaking to US broadcaster NBC this week, Leibovitz said that the iPhone was the “snapshot camera of today” and produced her own iPhone to take some snaps in the studio. “I’m still learning how to use mine. It’s great. It’s a pencil, it’s a pen, it’s a notebook. I can’t tell you how many times I see people show me their children. It’s the wallet with the family pictures in it. It is so accessible and easy,” Leibovitz said.

iPads and iPods “are helping our pupils learn without realising they are doing it” - The Guardian

“Teachers at Ysgol Glannau Gwaun, a primary school in Fishguard are convinced their pupils are benefiting from their iPads and iPods,” writes Steven Morris of The Guardian. The school has invested in 16 iPads and 20 iPods to improve literacy skills among their 247 pupils. Irwyn Wilcox, the headteacher said, “We were looking to beef up technology and find ways of engaging the pupils in different ways. I’m convinced it’s having an impact.” Pupils use the iPads in the classrooms and post their work to a secure virtual area run by Pembrokeshire, the local education authority. Rachel Morgan, Glannau Gwaun’s ICT co-ordinator, said children were “learning without realising they were learning.”

where can i get a iphone 4 screen replacement for under 50 pounds


thank you
jack, 18th November 2010
In reply to - jack, 18th November 2010 - where can i get a iPhone 4 screen replacement for under 50 pounds,

You wont is the quick answer, iPhone 4 screens are different from the iPhone 3G and 3Gs which could be replaced in two parts making the repair cheaper, the iPhone 4 has both LCD screen and touch screen/front glass bonded together so the cheapest place to repair out there at the moment is http://www.ukipodrepairs.co.uk who charge £99 all in.

we are going to travel to london and paris - will our iphones 3 & 4 work there and/or do we need a special adapter to plug in?
nancy daly, 25th November 2010
Hi Nancy, unless you can charge by USB you'll need an adaptor. If you have a charger you can just buy one of those special plugs at the airport.
Andrew, 25th November 2010
I have an ipod nano, ive had it for about 3/4 years now. This last year when i have used it, i have found it only lasting about two hours although it is fully charged.Have you any idea why this is happening, please dont tell me to bin it and get a upto date one. Im a very old ladie and im used to this modle.
Jane 26/11/2010
Jane, 26th November 2010
Jane, I'm afraid it is probably just the battery running down with age. I don't get much more out of my nano. I just charge it frequently.

You can't play your ipod songs directly using Windows Media Player, Phil, you have to use iTunes.

Declan, that is usually a sign that your iPod needs service - sorry.

Why is this happening and how do I correct this problem?
Ian Potts, 30th January 2011
where in the UK do I send my I pod to get repaired I am out in Afganistan and self help is not available
wynne jones, 31st January 2011
Ian, so you have all your photos on your computer? That's what you need. Then if you add photos to your photo library on your computer they should all sync with your iPod when you connect it. Does it not do this?
Andrew, 1st February 2011
Wynne, the phone numbers for technical support are here: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/contact/

andrew jennings, 5th February 2011
Andrew, this could be a million things. Can you be more specific about the problem? If your iPod is not charging, see this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA44551
Andrew, 5th February 2011
I have an ipad which has suddenly stopped working on the internet function - the screen is dark (as though you have selected it to copy) and I cannot type on the screen or use the button to see all the pages open so I cannot even delete them to start again. I can connect to the internet and google opens fine, I just cannot use it! Help please? Thanks
Jenny, 10th February 2011
Have you tried resetting it by pressing the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button simultaneously for about 15 seconds?
Andrew, 10th February 2011
Hi I have an iPhone 3GS i recently had to have it replaced due to the screen cracking, I backed up all music games and videos I had purchases through the phone on my laptop, but when it cane to putting them back on my replacement phone they were gone but it backed up onto the handset all contacts photos and even recent call log, it was only the purchased items I couldn't find please can you advise
Gillian, 13th February 2011
Gillian, do your purchases appear in your iTunes library on your laptop? If not, they might not have copied correctly. Is your laptop authorized for your iTunes account? See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
Andrew, 13th February 2011
I have added some songs from a cd onto my wife's 2nd Gen Shuffle. Ordinarily, I will sync and this will move them onto the ipod. However, when I sync, they do not transfer onto the ipod. I have turned on the "manually manage" songs and moved them across to the ipod, but as soon as I turn this flag back off, the tracks are automatically removed. Does anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I do have the latest update of iTunes on my laptop. Thanks in advance.
Andrew, 16th February 2011
I dont use my iphone anymore but can i still use it as a ipod if so how do i do it. The sim has been cancelled.
darren, 17th February 2011
Andrew, that's a bit of a mystery. Does it show any error message? Have a look at this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1420
Andrew, 17th February 2011
Darren, here is the Apple article on using your phone as an iPod Touch: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3406
Andrew, 17th February 2011
Thanks Andrew, I'll have a look at that link tonight. iTunes is up-to-date and no error message appears, so I'll have to wait and see I guess. Will report back if there's any resolution!
Andrew, 18th February 2011
I bought a radio with an ipod base (not apple) and was using it fine for a few months. One day i left my ipod (nano 2nd gen) on the base switched on for ages. When I went back to it, it was very hot and wouldnt work. It wont turn on at all :( I've tried to reset it, with no joy. When i plug it in to charge, you can see a faint apple sign, but when i plug it into laptop, it doesn't even register. I'm gutted as my songs arent backed up :( Help!! x
Pam, 6th March 2011
Pam, there shouldn't be any problem leaving your iPod plugged into a charger, so this doesn't sound good. All I can really suggest it taking it to the nearest Apple store and they can check it out.

Ipod classic. I do not appear to have cover flow or genius shown on my ipod although it is shown in my library. is this because my ipod is so old
Anne, 26th March 2011
If an album is loaded onto the library and it has someone else doing a duet the song is not listed as part of that album but shown separately. Also some albums by one person are shown as various artists.
Anne, 26th March 2011
Anne, the Genius is a part of iTunes, organising tracks into playlists. The playlists are then downloaded into your iPod when you sync it. Does that not work? You should have cover flow on your iPod - have you had a look at the manual?
Andrew, 28th March 2011
To sort out your artist data, select the track in iTunes and then choose File->Get Info. You can then edit all the track details.
Andrew, 28th March 2011
Hi Andrew...if only things were simple lol. If i go to my ipod menu it has music,photos, videos extras, clock, settings, shuffle songs, sleep, now playing. I have tried going into settings and extras and cannot find either cover flow or genius mentioned although on my friend's ipod it is shown in that list. Their ipod is newer than mine that was why I wondered if that was the problem. If I play the album and press the centre button I can see the album cover but as I said not cover flow.
