The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.6/29/10

For several years, video clips have automatically downloaded, along with stills, to iPhoto from my Sanyo VPC-C6. For some reason the last two downloads did not include any videos. They are still in the camera. Any thoughts?

Hi Gary,
I am just out of mobile (cell) range at home and I was wondering if the new iphone 4 with the antenna on the outside of the phone would have a better coverage range than a 3gs?

I emailed Steve Jobs and asked if there would be a trade in credit when the 4th gen iPod touch comes out. No response yet. I expect that to have a front and rear facing camera.
