Hello fellow listers,
three quick questions for you:
1. Anyone know of a good, easy-to-use, VoiceOver-accessible iPhone
ringtone creator for the Mac? I got my 64GB iPhone 5 on the 27th, am starting
to become familiar with using it, but still have a long ways to go, but am
interested in starting to make my own ringtones from the vast iTunes library I
have. Even if all the app does is convert a clip edited in a sound editor,
such as Sound Studio, into the M4R format, that'd be great, but a fully
VoiceOver-compliant app which would permit editing, etc, would be great too!
2. Can someone please explain how iPhone works, when it comes to
cellular vs WI-FI data? I see, in my iPhone 5's status menu, signal strength
for both the Verizon network, as well as my WI-FI, so I know both work. I spend
most of my time at home, so does this mean, with the exception of voice mail,
making calls, and the like, that my phone automagically uses WI-FI for things
like TuneIn Radio, or does it use cellular data? Right now my plan is the
Share Everything plan with 300MB of data, and I know I should upgrade this to
at least 2GB. I just don't want my ignorance in this area to end up costing me
mucho dinero! I did discover, in settings, that there was an option for
turning cellular data off, so I did this, for the time being. I assumed that
the phone would use my wireless router, when in range, yet I discovered that I
ended up sending about 6.2MB of data and receiving about 4.3MB. The 3 apps I
have on the phone, so far, which could be responsible for this, are Skype,
TuneIn Radio and Zello Walkie-Talkie. So far, I've been obtaining my apps
using the iTunes App store, thru my MacBook and syncing them manually to my
iPhone.
3. HOw the heck does one make 3-way calls with iPhone 5? When I'm in
the phone app, am on a call, and have the keypad hidden, I see an "Add Call"
button, but usually it's dimmed. I haven't seen, as of yet, any way to do
this. FYI, it appears, at least for the moment, I only have 3G here and not 4G
LTE. Would that make a difference at all?
Any and all help in these areas will be greatly appreciated!
Take care,
Ron
