Sometimes these companies can be really pushy. If you already told Time
Warner that you don't have a computer, they should just leave you alone.

Ug, the heat!! I sure don’t blame you for not wanting to go out in that awful, horrid heat and humidity!! Too often, Apple stores its I-Phones in cabinets, and you have to be very specific in order to have the person you’re working with get specific I-Phones out. You wouldn’t want the I-Phone 7 as it doesn’t have an earphone jack. But maybe you don’t use it for music or for listening to the Yankees on away games since you can get the broadcasts on local radio. The I-Phone 6S does have an earphone jack, but it’s bigger. I’ve seen my friend’s phone. She’s either lost or messed up two I-Phones already since her contract with Verizon began. The I-Phone 6 S.E. is smaller, the same size as the 5S. Hope this information helps. As for not being able to get Wi-Fy in Starbuck’s, there’s some kind of difference with their Wi-Fy signal, and you’d have to do a special set-up on your I-Phone in order to get their Wi-Fy to work properly. You’d have to go into settings and manually set it up. Your phone just may not see it or may not be able to connectwith it. I read something about it at least a year ago. You should be okay with McDonald’s and with Duncan Doughnuts. I’m so sorry about Time-Werner wanting to cram down your throat their entire internet set-up when you have explained to the representatives that you don’t have a computer! Grabby companies anyway!

Well I have the 5S phone. I want to go to the Apple Store and look at the waiter phones if they have them out where I can touch them. But I may have a back it up in there because they have the Chargers I don't feel like bringing mine. Yes I probably have a lot of battery. So I'll get that done. But if I go there today and get this done they can help me with it and I will get over with. But hey what can you do. Yes I think there's a McDonald's and Dunkin' Donuts near me. Starbucks is well they have Wi-Fi but sometimes it doesn't work. But when I get home I want why five at Time Warner is trying to tell me I have to take the role whole Internet package. And I really don't want that. All I want is the Wi-Fi. So that's basically how that goes. But over the weekend it's going to get hot as you know what and I want to get this done before Saturday and Sunday when it gets so hot you can't stand it. I think by this afternoon it's going to be 90 and I want to be home here before then.

I use my notes section of my IPhone, to create grocery lists. We
have to drive too far to be forgetting items needed from the
store. So, it works out really great for us. Kathleen, if you
go outside, can you log on to a Wi-Fi from anywhere? I know you
said you don’t get it inside your new place, but if you go
outside and maybe to a coffee joint, or McDonalds, or some fast
food place, they will have Wi-Fi and then you can use it to back
up your IPhone to the ICloud. I have had to use that method
before. You don’t actually have to have it plugged into a power
source. Just have lots of battery. You could even update your
phone, if you can get onto a Wi-Fi. If you have an earlier
phone, like I do, you may not be able to get the IOS 10, when it
does come out. But, I know then you still won’t have your
picture taken for your Facebook page. I’ve never put a photo on
my Facebook page either. Seems like a lot of my friends are being
hacked on face book, and so far I haven’t. Knock on wood. I get
notifications all the time, and ignore them. You don’t have to
have a photo.

I want the rep to help me back up the phone too. Because I keep
getting a notification telling me I have to do it but since I
don't have Wi-Fi over here oh well. If the picture doesn't get
done tomorrow well that's OK. I can always go back to just
depends on how busy they are. Yes everything is still barricaded.
And some of the first floor is actually being torn apart where
the auditorium is so things are really find a vest up. They had
some water leaks over there too and that turned into a mess from
what I've been told. So that's the way that goes. A friend of
mine went to look at some radios and he found one he said it was
really small it was AM/FM and CD and he said the singles like a
toy. He told me I had dials on it and it was only $35. So that's
basically that. When I can't wear my Birkenstock sandals anymore
I'm going to send them back to get fixed. They need to be resold.
So I don't know how much they'll cost me what I want to get that
done so that's basically what I'm going
to do. But yes I got everything put away and she cleaned up the
Snapple mess. Thank odd most of it stayed in the bagp boy am I
glad the shopping trip is done. Tomorrow is I said hopefully will
be the Apple Store I just don't know what time we're going to go.
The person is going with me he has bad knees so we're going to
take her time. We're not going to rush either. I told him I
didn't want to but no I'm still in pain I still feel like I have
a stiff neck all the time. Every time I turn my head to the right
ouch that doesn't feel very good either. If I stay on my right
side too long oh boy. Not good but hey I'm learning to live with
it. But no I have trouble opening those Tylenol bottles. I wish
those came and screw tops but I'm fortunately they don't. But yes
I'm glad the shopping done but the thing is we forgot margarine
and I can't remember what else. Oh well I told her we could even
get that at the drugstore because I do sell food. There's a
Walgreens not far from here so that's
OK. So I can get margarine at least if I need it. And I got a
lot of bananas too. I'm really glad and I got uses it all my
Snapple and ginger rail and Coke zero. So I got most everything I
wanted.
