Anyone have an IPOD Touch?
« on: December 26, 2011, 09:33:41 PM »
If so, any idea how to change the birthdate on the touch? I was able to set the month and day but it wouldn't let me select the right year so I got stuck using 2011.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Yes, I'll pop into Yahoo chat tonight, been busy, so haven't had a chance to play with this as much as I'd like. I was watching some youtubes on and off and I think there's an APP I can download that will give me internet when I'm out of range of mine, also doing some reading about tethering, I always have internet on my cellphone so I guess there's a way to hook these 2 up. I did get some music on there and I read there's a way to download youtubes to it, so I have to try doing that tonight. I also downloaded a police scanner APP, totally cool, and an APP where I get like 40,000 radio stations. Any other ideas of APP's that I might like?

Well, there are apps available now for the 2012 elections.  I haven't found one for my iPhone that I can't live without yet, but I bet there will be more eventually. I'd like to see Fox News come up with a free one. Or maybe Drudge or Real Clear Politics.

Whatever you do, BG, don't search for poker playing games in the applications. Again, DO NOT do that. :)

Can you please ask your son how I zoom in to read a story? I have Drudge on there and I can't figure out how to zoom in to read the headlines.

Thanks!

You should be able to use two fingers and swipe outwards on the screen to zoom in. That's how my iPhone works.

Basically Pinch outwards.  You can zoom in and out using the Pinch feature.

I use Digsby, which logs me into Google Chat, Facebook Chat, Yahoo, MSN, and AOL.

I still use Yahoo because my father who travels around Southeast Asia still uses it.  Although he is slowly moving to Facebook and Google Chats.

When BG says 'Yahoo Chat' she means Yahoo Messenger. I've used it since I was 25, so it's been around a long time. I also use MSN Messenger. I hate Facebook chat. It never seems to work right for me.

Well, when I think of 'chat' I think of several people in a chatroom like we did years ago. Messenger is a conversation between two people. We do have the ability to bring other people into our discussions with us, but I see no need for that. Ever.

A police scanner app. Interesting! I'm going to research that!

I downloaded the top rated 1, i think it was free or like $1.99, I can't remember, but you can listen to police scanners in your area or all around the US and the World, you should listen to the Cook County Chicago 1, OMG!
