GarageBand Questions

[Gavin]

Hi listers,

I have a few GarageBand questions I would like help with.

1. I've heard that, to remove the center channel of audio in GB, you can split 
the audio to 2 tracks, then invert the phase of 1 and pan it until the center 
channel is completely muted. Is this possible using VoiceOver? How?

2. When using loops, how do I paste multiple loops from the finder to 1 track? 
I tried creating a loop song the other day, but I ended up with a 90 track 
project that made my computer freeze when performing even the simplist actions. 
I tried licking each track in the hope that I'd be able to free up some 
resources, but that didn't seem to work. In fact, it only made things worse.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Regards,

Gavin

Re: Questions about sound check

[Mr. L. Alexander]

sound check to those unfamiliar is a level limiter for audio. as an example, 
it's to protect users from excessive sound levels. it is available both in 
itunes and most / all ipods. it's simply a matter of setting up in itunes 
preferences sound check in playback settings. when setting up on the nano, do 
the same in itunes but go to your device name in the main itunes window, like 
you would the iphone.

Re: siri

[Rachel Magario]

Thank you everyone!
I was thinking that maybe something was wrong with mine, since mine does not 
work 99% of the time, and my sister who does not even need siri, hers work most 
of the time, even when mine does not work. So I was starting to think something 
was not right with mine.
Who is responsible for siri's server, apple or the cell phone provider?
Rachel.

Re: iphone4s and triple home

[Chris Blouch]

First paragraph in this article also claims that triple-home turns on VO 
out of the box:


http://luisperezonline.com/2011/10/19/overview-of-new-accessibility-features-in-ios-5/

Could it also be that the triple-home setting is changed to VO if you 
have VO on when doing your iTunes sync?

Hello Charlie,
I have no problem , voiceover is turning on/off with a triple home on my phone

My question is if the triple home is by default assigned to toggle voiceover 
on/off on a iphone4s with ios5?
This could be very useful if a blind person need a iPhone of someone else and 
the iPhone is not set to use voiceover.

On this way, he/she can prepare the phone to use it with voiceover without need 
of a computer or  sighted assistance.

But, on the iphone4s of my friend, the triple home did nothing.

Is any iphone4s prepared with a triple home to start/stop vo?

Re: Looking for a monitor to connect to my mac mini

[Chris Blouch]

Lots of times thrift stores will have old ones that work well enough. 
They don't even need to turn on really because the sense pins are just 
resistors connecting certain ones together. They used to sell "vga 
terminators" but every site I found either discontinued them or they 
were permanently out of stock. Another option I've documented before was 
to get a VGA to NTSC/PAL adapter. It will appear to be a VGA monitor to 
your Mac whether you hook it up to a TV or not. I got one from here for 
about $27 plus shipping:

Re: Burning Itunes purchases to CD?

[Ricardo Walker]

I don't think that 's much of a rumor.  Its just the way things are going.  
Just like the 3.5 inch floppy.  The Macbook air has gotten rid of the optical 
drive and I'm sure you will see more of this in the next 2 to 3 years.  A lot 
of stereos are coming with 1 CD slot, AM FM radio, maybe HD radio, and a iPod 
dock and USB.  Remember just 10 years ago when many stereos had at least 3 or 5 
CD slots?

Re: Burning Itunes purchases to CD?

[Ricardo Walker]

I think whatever era one grew up in is always considered to have the best 
music. :).  I prefer hip hop from the 90's and early 2000's.  But that mostly 
has to do with where and when I was born.

Re: Questions about sound check

[Ricardo Walker]

Sound check is terrible in my opinion.  It does nothing but lower the volume of 
all your music.  If that is the purpose its meant to serve then its doing a 
great job.

Re: Questions about sound check

[Mr. L. Alexander]

that's exactly the job of this function.

in studio terms, it's a combination of a normaliser and mixdown regulator.

this basically protects your ears from excessive sound pressure, as well as the 
hardware.

we've all grown up with the concept of cranking up hifis to hear what we want, 
but with this, due to laws of sound, turning up the volume doesn't mean better 
sound quality. just higher volumes. hence this feature.

Re: GarageBand Questions

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,


for the loops, just paste the loop once into your project.  every time you 
paste, it adds a new track as you found out the hard way. :).  After you have 
imported the loop, just loop it instead of pasting.  To do this interact with 
arrange layout, time group and the name of the loop you've pasted or, if you 
have multiple tracks or regions already, interact with instruments then the 
region.  There you will find the loop handle.  Interact and press VO right 
arrow to extend the loop the amount of bars you desire.

You should go to www.mobileaccess.org and type garageband into the search 
field.  Then you will see all the audio tutorials I did for Garageband.

RE: Questions about sound check

[Missy Hoppe]

I've disabled sound check on my macbook, but the volume of a movie I purchased 
on itunes is still very, very low.
Fortunately, it wasn't that expensive, but if I can't figure out how to get 
movies or tv shows to play at the same volume as
music, I'll never buy another 1. I have my bose mediamates turned up almost all 
the way, and can still barely hear the movie.
I've rented this movie on DVD  in the past, and don't remember it having low 
sound, so am not sure what's going on. It's just
very disappointing. Would there be a way to rip the movie to a DVD and play it 
on my home theater? Maybe that would solve the
problem.
Thanks, and sorry if this changes the topic, but I was hoping that sound check 
was the problem, and that doesn't seem to be
the case.

Re: Questions about sound check

[Mr. L. Alexander]

If sound check has been disabled, your system volume is at a reasonable volume 
and your itunes volume is at top, there is the chance like some instances that 
the mastering of the film has used a different mixing config. this means that 
the volume does not match the normal setting we are all used to.

take as an example a DVD. each DVD is mastered differently, using different 
mixing consoles, production hardware and software, so in turn, the overall 
sound mix is different each time, unless the studio engineer has a default 
setup in automation.

oh well.

now to strangle windows XP. Don't ask why I'm even touching this filthy 
software DING!

Re: Sorry but I gotta ask again | VMWare Key Mapping

[Esther]

Hi Kevin,

There are two programs that I know are used for remapping your keyboard for 
VMWare running Windows.  The one you'll most frequently hear recommended is 
SharpKeys by RandyRants:
http://www.randyrants.com/sharpkeys/
This program is basically a Windows registry hack that lets you remap keys from 
two lists.  The other program is called KeyRemap4MacBook:
http://pqrs.org/macosx/keyremap4macbook/
Erik Burggraaf posted about this over a year ago, but under a confusing subject 
line about the Mac number pad.  This program will let you remap keys both for 
use on the Mac, as well as define key remappings on a per application basis, 
such as for VMWare Fusion.  You can read about it in this TUAW article from two 
years ago:


Both of these are either freeware, or with a suggestion that you donate if you 
find the program useful. You can probably get more detailed information from 
other list members, since I don't use VMWare Fusion to run Windows myself.

HTH. Cheers,

Esther

Re: Sorry but I gotta ask again | VMWare Key Mapping

[Mr. L. Alexander]

with the use of keymapping for fusion... does this effectively mean that the 
shortcuts I use on the mac can be echoed to windows instead of working out 
windows shortcuts?

if so... I'm in lol

RE: Sorry but I gotta ask again | VMWare Key Mapping

[Daniel Miller]

Hi,

Can someone that used jaws under vmware write me off list and explain how
I'd map a key to function as the jaws key? I hate not having my full set of
jaws commands simply because there's no key that will function as that
particular one.

Any help would be greatly apriciated.

with the use of keymapping for fusion... does this effectively mean that the
shortcuts I use on the mac can be echoed to windows instead of working out
windows shortcuts?

 

if so... I'm in lol

Hi Kevin,

There are two programs that I know are used for remapping your keyboard for
VMWare running Windows.  The one you'll most frequently hear recommended is
SharpKeys by RandyRants:
http://www.randyrants.com/sharpkeys/
This program is basically a Windows registry hack that lets you remap keys
from two lists.  The other program is called KeyRemap4MacBook:
http://pqrs.org/macosx/keyremap4macbook/
Erik Burggraaf posted about this over a year ago, but under a confusing
subject line about the Mac number pad.  This program will let you remap keys
both for use on the Mac, as well as define key remappings on a per
application basis, such as for VMWare Fusion.  You can read about it in this
TUAW article from two years ago:


Both of these are either freeware, or with a suggestion that you donate if
you find the program useful. You can probably get more detailed information
from other list members, since I don't use VMWare Fusion to run Windows
myself.

HTH. Cheers,

Esther

RE: Questions about sound check

[Missy Hoppe]

You know, I'm having trouble proving it for sure, but I think it's very similar 
to the problem with midi playback. I opened
the movie in itunes using my drive that still runs snow leopard, and it seems 
that it's ever-so-slightly easier to hear. I'm
not entirely definite, but if that is the case, Apple really, really needs to 
take a look at whatever equalizer/limiter
software they're using, because under lion, it truly sucks! I'm off to try to 
watch this movie, but I'm still not impressed
enough with the quality that I'll be in a hurry to buy any more movies from 
Itunes.

Re: Sorry but I gotta ask again | VMWare Key Mapping

[Esther]

Hi Lew,

Someone who uses Windows in Fusion should answer this for you, but I think your 
question is not being posed precisely.  Fusion itself will let you redefine 
keyboard shortcuts to be used in different virtual machines,which need not just 
be Windows, if you use it to run Linux or different versions of an operating 
system.  But the two programs I listed give you more flexibility.  

When you type keyboard shortcuts on the Mac, there's a possible issue about 
precedence with shortcuts defined on the Mac.  For example,  Command-Tab cycles 
between active applications on the Mac, so if you implemented that instead of 
Alt-Tab under Windows, the net result could be to dump you out of virtual 
machine into another Mac app.  Similarly, there can be conflicts with 
predefined keys like F10, etc. which by default are defined as the Exposé keys 
on the Mac, unless you turn these definitions off under settings, which I 
always do, since there are accessibility issues if you press these by mistake 
that can be very confusing to a user.

So KeyRemap4MacBook will let you redefine keys used for VMWare Fusion, but it 
still requires some thought before you randomly apply these.  Also, my 
understanding is that you should not try to remap the Insert key for JAWS to 
the CapsLock key.  One of the reasons is that some time ago Apple inserted a 
delay for the application of the Caps Lock key on Intel Macs to reduce 
accidental activation. (This may be an issue for some individuals with motion 
disabilities.)  You can read more about it under this Knowledge Base article:
• Intel-based Apple Portables: Caps Lock modified to reduce accidental 
activation:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1192
This is also in effect for other Apple Keyboards used with desktop Macs:
• Keyboard Caps Lock modified to reduce accidental activation:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1578

HTH.  I don't use Windows or JAWS under VMWare Fusion, so maybe someone who 
does can provide better answers.

Cheers,

Esther

cheers for that.

I think then, just in case for windows based repairs to systems, I may as well 
carry both a windows notebook and my mac. OK it's a bit more weight to carry 
but hey.

Re: Questions about sound check

[Chris Blouch]

So I wonder what iTunes does with the center channel on a stereo system. 
I usually run my Mac Mini's audio output via optical cable to my home 
stereo. I usually only have left/right speakers since the kids play with 
the other ones so on the stereo I have to turn off the missing speakers, 
including the center channel. One time I had Center turned on even 
though there was no speaker and wondered where the dialog went. Had to 
turn things way up just to hear it because it was just the bleedthrough 
on the left/right. So if iTunes is dropping the center channel rather 
than mixing it with the left/right that could explain it.

I've rented this movie on DVD  in the past, and don't remember it having low

very disappointing. Would there be a way to rip the movie to a DVD and play it

Thanks, and sorry if this changes the topic, but I was hoping that sound check 
was the problem, and that doesn't seem to be
the case.

Sound check is terrible in my opinion.  It does nothing but lower the volume of 
all your music.  If that is the purpose its
meant to serve then its doing a great job.

Hello all,

Does anyone use sound check for their iPods or iTunes?

Can you use sound check on a Nano but not iTunes?

Any guidance on how to best use it?  Do you like it?

Lastly, if you use sound check, do you have a volume limit on your Nano?

Thanks,

Re: Burning Itunes purchases to CD?

[Chris Blouch]

Last stats I found said online music purchases were to surpass CD 
puchases for the first time this year ($2.8B online v. $2.7B for CDs) 
and that shift has been happening for a few years now. While I like 
having a backup (or an original) CD on the shelf, it's hard to beat the 
instant gratification of purchasing some music online and listening to 
it in a matter of seconds. Plus the preview feature is hard to replicate 
with physical media.

Just like the 3.5 inch floppy.  The Macbook air has gotten rid of the optical

of stereos are coming with 1 CD slot, AM FM radio, maybe HD radio, and a iPod

I couldn't agree more with this statement. I've just heard rumors that physical 
media is going away fairly soon, so am trying
to prepare myself a little bit at a time. Naturally, as long as CDs exist, I'll 
buy them, especially for artists I already
own CDs for, but for less important stuff, I don't mind just having it 
digitally. Thanks for the suggestions on how to back
stuff up, though. They're all extremely appreciated.

hi john, that's right on the CD settings.

regarding backing up an itunes purchase or an entire library, I'd advise having a 
pen drive large enough or a small usb 2.5"
hard drive as your backup for itunes. My own library is about 80GB in full 
audio quality and it's worth backing up. OK I
don't buy from itunes. I prefer the CD route. the tactile pleasure of buying

Backing up your iTunes purchases is a matter of choice.  In the beginning,

this has changed where you can use an external HD.  If you are using Time 
Machine or some other method of backing up your

   In regards to burning the album for your mother, just create a playlist with

RE: Questions about sound check

[Missy Hoppe]

That explanation makes a lot of sense; I remember this movie being very 
surround sound intensive, so I'm almost definite it's
trying to play surround sound through 2 channels, which is why I can't hear 
anything. Unfortunately, I have no means of
hooking the macbook up to the home theater. Is there a way to force 2 channel 
audio, or better yet, can I burn the movie to a
DVD and watch it that way?
Thanks!

Re: GarageBand Questions

[Gavin Grundlingh]

Hi Ricardo,

Thanks for the tip on extending loops. The reason I originally asked
the question was because the song I'm trying to create consists of
several different loops, one after the other. I'd like to then take
tha multi-looped section and repeat the whole thing a certain number
of times. I planned to put all the bass on 1 track, all the piano on 1
track, all the drums on 1 track, and so on. Perhaps what I want to do
would be better explained if I sent you the file. Is there a way I can
get it to you?

Regards,

Gavin

Re: Burning Itunes purchases to CD?

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

This isn't exactly true.  that purchases  online will pass CD purchases.  
Online sales has already surpassed CD sales for a year or 2.  Its more that the 
revenue from online sales will surpass that of CD sales.  You must also keep in 
mind the price of a CD over the years.  I remember in the 1990s, it was common 
place to get a new album for $16, $17, or $18 before tax.  These prices have 
gone down tremendously to entice people to pick up CDs.  That accounts for much 
of the lost revenue from this media format.  Its hard to over inflat your 
prices when people can just get the album at home, with no physical media for 
like $10.  And if they want, just by a song for for a dollar or a little more.

 Hi,
 
 
 for the loops, just paste the loop once into your project.  every time
 you
 paste, it adds a new track as you found out the hard way. :).  After you
 have imported the loop, just loop it instead of pasting.  To do this
 interact with arrange layout, time group and the name of the loop you've
 pasted or, if you have multiple tracks or regions already, interact with
 instruments then the region.  There you will find the loop handle.
 Interact
 and press VO right arrow to extend the loop the amount of bars you
 desire.
 
 You should go to www.mobileaccess.org and type garageband into the search

[Traci]

Thanks all,

I'll have to play with this sound check further.  I'm looking forward to see 
how it is handled with the Nano docked.  Lol, it sucked with a headset, 
ohMyGall, my ear still hurts from the sudden burst of volume on a particular 
track.

Re: Burning Itunes purchases to CD?

[Mr. L. Alexander]

no. because the way the music industry is these days, you get dodgy media 
companies, managers who rip you off and then there's technology. don't get me 
started. I'm a long retired musician. better off to be honest.

Growl Notifications readout

[Traci]

Those of you that use growl, how do you have voiceover set up to handle the 
system dialogues that pop up?

It annoys me how every time growl notifies me, I'm pulled from my current 
application, and then I have no idea what I'm being notified about.

Am I missing some setting here?

Thanks,
Traci

interesting bug in voiceover with numbers and apostrophes

[Paul Erkens]

Dear listers,
Before I start bugging Apple with what I think is a bug, I would like to ask 
you listers about the following. I found the bug while working in Amadeus pro. 
In this sound editor, for some reason, you have to enter time in a strange way. 
Let's say I have a file open that is 30 minutes long, but I would like to jump 
right to 10 minutes, 3 seconds and half a second more. So 10 minutes, 3 seconds 
and 500 milliseconds. In Amadeus pro, I have to enter this, using apostrophes 
as time separators, and 2 apostrophes to separate the seconds from the 
milliseconds. Does this sound weird? I don't know why amadeus wants me to use 2 
apostrophes in a row, even though that works fine if you obey, although this is 
not important for this voiceover bug, but here I found something strange happen 
with voiceover.
Here's the test. For ten minutes 3 seconds and 500 milliseconds, here's what I 
type in inside amadeus pro. I'll type it literally, so let's see what your 
voiceover says here.
10'3''500
With my current voiceover punctuation set to some, I hear:
ten, thirty nine one one five hundred. This is strange, because what I type was:
1 0 apostrophe 3 apostrophe apostrophe 5 0 0.
What the heck is happening here with voiceover? Where does that thirty nine 
come from? I didn't type it, but if you omit the last apostrophe, so that the 3 
seconds are now only separated from the milliseconds by just one apostrophe, 
then everything speaks just fine. In other words, try typing this.
one zero apostrophe 3 apostrophe 5 0 0
If you do this, then you hear what is on the screen. With 2 apostrophes in a 
row though, voiceover screws up. Can anyone confirm this?
10'3'500 against 10'3''500.
Isn't that interesting? Hmm.

Re: iphone4s and triple home

[Paul Erkens]

To add to this: I remember reading somewhere, that if set up a new iphone with 
ios 5, the 4 s will have it, if you don't hear anything and you wait 1 or 2 
minutes, then voiceover would come on automatically. Maybe Kevin Ciao will know 
this for sure.

am I wrong or does growel now cost $1.99? where can one get this from? I tried 
getting it from google but didn't really try all that hard, but only found some

Re: Burning Itunes purchases to CD?

[Chris Blouch]

Agreed. You would think the profit margin from downloading a $10 album 
would be greater than CDs after the cost of duplication, shipping and 
store frontage/reselling is accounted for. What has changed is the 
labels can't stuff a bunch of junk on an album which you bought for the 
two 'good songs'. If the do you'll give them the $2 it's worth by just 
buying those two tracks. I think they also benefited from the media 
conversions as folks migrated from LPs to tapes to CDs. That migration 
over time generated a lot of revenue, which has pretty much dried up at 
this point. I remember dubbing LPs to casette and later re-buying some 
of those LPs on CD. At this point the quality is 'good enough' that most 
will never upgrade again. As has been pointed out on this list before, 
imperical studies found that more people chose the mp3 version of a 
track over the uncompressed version so something about that codec makes 
your iTunes library more appealing to listen to. The other great thing 
is portability. I used to carry a good sized "wallet" of CDs around and 
a portable CD player etc. which is now replaced by an iPhone. The 
iPhones now have enough capacity that most people just dump their whole 
library or, at a minimum, don't have to whittle the list down much. With 
more ubiquitous wireless access, even that need will go away over time. 
Why store it all when I can just play anything via the internet on 
demand. I'm not sold on that yet as I still like the idea of 'ownership' 
of my media. I still have the first Rush Moving Pictures CD I bough back 
in the early 80s.

Hi,

This isn't exactly true.  that purchases  online will pass CD purchases.  
Online sales has already surpassed CD sales for a year or 2.  Its more that the 
revenue from online sales will surpass that of CD sales.  You must also keep in 
mind the price of a CD over the years.  I remember in the 1990s, it was common 
place to get a new album for $16, $17, or $18 before tax.  These prices have 
gone down tremendously to entice people to pick up CDs.  That accounts for much 
of the lost revenue from this media format.  Its hard to over inflat your 
prices when people can just get the album at home, with no physical media for 
like $10.  And if they want, just by a song for for a dollar or a little more.

I couldn't agree more with this statement. I've just heard rumors that physical 
media is going away fairly soon, so am trying
to prepare myself a little bit at a time. Naturally, as long as CDs exist, I'll 
buy them, especially for artists I already

Hey all. I'd like to know this information too since none of the keys that I've

modifier key which is pretty much the same as the Jawskey. I know that I'll be 
going back to Lion soon so I won't need the version of Fusion that I have which 
is version 2, but that won't be until a few weeks when my computer exam is

Re: Growl Notifications readout

Yup, Growl has decided to start charging. I questioned this because some 
apps avoid implementing accessible notification by just pointing folks 
to Growl. While not expensive, it does mean that VO users will have to 
shell out and set up more to gain the same access. I has asked for 
comments on this but apparently it bothered me more than most others :)

Re: Looking for a monitor to connect to my mac mini

[Chris Blouch]

So you'll need two adapters. One is the HDMI or DVI to VGA and the 
second is the VGA to NTSC box to trick your Mac into thinking there is a 
monitor hooked up.


Nope. Not accessible at all. This is the same problem with Firefox. The 
Mozilla folks support the open Iaccessible2 API which is not implemented 
on OSX. Apple already has a perfectly dandy accessibility API but 
Mozilla has no intention of supporting a second platform-specific API 
since iAccessible2 works on both Windows and Linux. So the standoff 
leaves all Mozilla apps unusable on OSX for now. Different story on 
Windows as FF with IAccessible2 and NVDA or Jaws is somewhat the gold 
standard for good web accessibility support such as ARIA.

Little Mac Victories

[Traci]

Hope y'all don't mind me sharing such an email…


I was on a music site I like to buy from, from time to time.  I went there on 
my Mac and hesitated, thinking I should wait to hop onto my windows.  *Grin,* I 
decided to give it a whirl on my Mac.

Looky there!  There was a bit of struggle navigating the website, but for the 
most part it was a more pleasant experience than on my windows machine.  I was 
tickled to search for a track, log in, and purchase said track.

The song is now nicely inside iTunes, inside a playlist.  :) Loving it!

A side note here: ever since I reformatted my iPod Nano to Mac, syncing has 
been lightning faster.

It's a good Mac Day!

Voice Over acting Odd

[Becky Knaub]

Hi all,
VO is acting really odd on my MBP today. It has stopped talking all the sudden 
three different times.  I had to restart it and then it was fine. Anyone got 
any suggestions?  Also does anyone know why Safari often keeps saying busy?

safari refuses to launch.

[Jessica]

I've just recently tried to launch safari, only to have voiceover tell me 
"open," like it normally does when I perform the "open," command, only it just 
sits there and refuses to do anything.  I've tried to launch other aps, and 
they've opened perfectly fine, so don't understand what the problem is, and 
have restarted the computer, and nothing has helped.
  Has anyone ever had this issue?

where to start i I want to automate terminal commands

[Ioana Gandrabur]

Hi all,

I would love to create a script or what ever that I can call up to perform a 
series of terminal commands. I had a look at the automator and found a record 
option to type in all the steps. I performed the actions but when I tried to 
run the action got an error. I suspect that the key sequence goes to fast since 
it is saying that terminal is not running when it was expected to.
Any ideas how to do this or where to look for prewritten scripts I can modify?
Is the script editor a better option than automator?

I have no formal scripting experience but have read and written jaws scripts 
using their manual but really nothing fancy.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Ioana

Re: Voice Over acting Odd

[Rachel Magario]

I can think of 3 things.
1. check if you running low in your hard drive space.
If I get less than 50 Gb of hard drive my VO gets slow because I use loads of 
applications running at once.
2. turn your activity monitor on and ask somebody to check who is taking the 
most of your ram when vo gets quiet.
3. this must be really far off, but once I had so many attachments that when I 
turned my mail on my vo got really slow. I had to clean like 20 gb of 
attachments on my mail, but you are probably not data horder  like me. But just 
in case.
HTH,
Rachel

Hello Hank. If you have Google Chrome installed and have added the Google

Press the Google Chrome key (control+option)+h which puts you in chrome help. 
One of the links there is the interactive tutorial.

 Hi,
 
 If you have your devices syncing through iCloud, as you fix them on the
 iPhone, they will fix the related items within iCloud.  Similarly, if you
 fix these items on your Mac in AddressBook, they will automatically be 
 fixed
 on your iPhone.  You can confirm this by going to the other device and
 checking it.  That is, if you did the corrections on the iPhone,, just go 
 to
 your Mac and take a look in AddressBook and the same items should also be
 fixed there.  Again, this only is relevant if you have the same iCloud
 account on both devices and you have Contact syncing turned on.
