This might have some merit, although there is the additional SIM card cost and only several days' battery life. Tkstar Mini Waterproof GSM GPS Tracker Free APP Android Iphone Free Platform | eBay This is a specialist pet product, but again battery is an issue. Dog GPS Tracking Systems  | Track...

I was attracted by the concept of GPS to be able to map where your lost item might be. I thought it might be a great idea if there was a mapping tracker which could provide a trail of location information - particularly good if something is stolen. However, I have done some research and, am I...

Thx. How do I find the first one? I would be pleased to know that there was an issue with the app, because I have been racking my brains to think what I may be doing wrong!

This is driving me barmy. I use the AirDroid desktop in Chrome on my iMac, which has the latest OS, and the app on my Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505. I keep getting the 'failed to connect' message, both with the web.airdroid.com method and using the recommended IP address. I have tried the obvious...

Hoping you guys might still be following this post...I have two main screens. How do I swap them over to change which one is the home screen? Thankyou.

Really appreciate your advice, but that did not work in my situation.

When I plug in my GT-I9505 to charge, after about two minutes, it starts beeping with a double beep sound about every second. Someone suggested that this wasn't a phone issue, but third-party software. But I am interested to note that the beeping occurs exactly as the lightning bolt flashes in...

I am connected as a media device by usb to the iMac. Cannot see the phone in Finder. Any suggestions?

Thankyou. Keep Gmail's copy in the inbox is fine. How do I delete the regular mail app from my phone? I can't see it in Applications Manager and it refuses to disappear when I drag it to the trash.

Another note...I suspect that when I am near the iMac, the email comes to my inbox there, but if I am on 3G, it goes to the standard app on the S3. I am not very technical, so these are only guesses.

I usually receive mail using the gmail app, but I also have the standard mail app with the '@' sign in the middle of the link button. I have two issues: (a) I have started having an issue where new mail will not show in the gmail app, but will in the standard mail app. I have a feeling that this...

Really happy with AirDroid. Thanks for the tip. :cool:

Unless I am being a bit daft (sadly, a real possibility!), I can't see how to transfer the pic files from Kies to iPhoto even when I am connected via USB. Anyone who can explain this to me or point me to an explanation would earn my eternal admiration and be first in line to be CTO at my...

So, do you mean a micro SD card reader plugged into the USB port on the iMac? Meaning I would need to pull the SD card out each time. That sounds like a bit of an arse, but I have to admit that the other options are more so! I can't understand why on earth this is not completely simple. Do...

Thankyou, Mr Hound. Option one seems very close to working. When I connect via USB in PTP mode, iPhoto automatically starts. But then I can't find the phone listed anywhere in iPhoto, so can't locate the photographs. Arrgghhhh. With Kies, I can connect the S3 with the iMac, select the pics in...
