How to use iOS 11's Notes app as a document scanner - CNET
Apple has a habit of building features into iOS that eliminate the need to

Hi Wayne.
All I ever do if I want a contact number for a particular company is go to
Google and put in something like contact details for Microsoft and then you
will find something. I also am in the UK.

You're not the first person I've heard say bad things about charter. For now, I

I'm not gonna cancel it until I settle on a good alternative.

It’s just a different thing.
Instead of going through a phone company to get to your house like the local
bell for DSL or cable they use a wireless system. There’s a central tower with
sector panels on top and then they point these small panel looking antennas
towards the tower for service. Y
Yes, when I was reading about them, it said something about them being fixed
wireless providers. Sorry if this is a dumb question but what exactly does that

I know a little bit about them. I believe both are fixed wireless providers so
they may install a small panel on your home that broadcasts back to a tower.
Some used licensed space and others use regular non licensed WiFi frequencies.

Oh, that's too bad! Thanks for the warning, though. Maybe I'll take a closer
look at some of the smaller providers. There's one that got reviewed well, but
they want to contract, and I don't. :-)

Hi,
No, AAC is correct. Ring-tones in iTunes are normally an m4r file and the AAC
version of the original song will create an m4a file, which is an AAC formatted
file. Thus, changing the "a" to an "r" will result in the m4r file.

Hi Rhonda, you can’t with out QOS and I’d argue your connection is to slow to
