Indeed - it will eventually make "I'm on the train' sound good.

mixture's posts can come over as being rather blunt sometimes but he's helped me in the past and I'm really glad that he posts on this forum, he really does know his stuff, Stuart.

Indeed. Thanks Stuart.

Rather blunt? The guy's got issues that's likely described in detail in DSM-5. Normal it isn't.
No, I do not "have issues", and quite honestly, personal attacks are uncalled for.

As I have said on here a million times.....

Pay me for my advice and you'll get nice friendly hand-holding waffle and a 20 page report afterwards.

Expect me to come on here, at my own initiative, unpaid ... the advice will be 100% technically accurate ... but I will get straight to the point with no waffle.

Not a personal attack as no one mentioned but if the cap fits........

Its not all about you. No one is expecting you to come on here, or any other thread where you are appear as an expert on all things, in your rude and brusque manner calling people morons or idiots.
I am sure there are many friendlier and just as helpful ppruners to fill the void.

Oh come come, it was blatantly obvious who his attack was targeted at....

calling people morons or idiots.
For the record I didn't call anyone here that.

It was a generic term targeted at anyone who thinks its a wonderful idea to sit on their phone and then fail to comprehend why they've broken it through their own sheer stupidity and ignorance of fundamental physics.

Apple's name is now Verboten in the Ancient house. They have, without either consultation or information, removed the best bit of an iPad. So I am told.

Words like arrogant, thoughtless and useless are the mild ones. A quick google produces many many irate people.

Camera roll has been killed off by the goons that do software. I bet none of them were female and that none of them ever left California, not even to go to Austin.

Camera roll was the essential method for global families and friends to stay in touch. I am told.

Couple of things....

- Could you confirm the version of iTunes (iTunes menu -> about)

- If you go to Applications -> Utilities -> Console, does anything of interest pop-up when you plug in your phone and/or try to connect it to iTunes ?

Thanks Stuart, will take a look.

For future reference though, you may find the built-in screenshot capabilities a bit less hassle....

Summary from wikipedia.....

Command-Shift-3: Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then select an area: Take a screenshot of an area and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Take a screenshot of a window and save it as a file on the desktop
Command-Control-Shift-3: Take a screenshot of the screen, and save it to the clipboard
Command-Control-Shift-4, then select an area: Take a screenshot of an area and save it to the clipboard
Command-Control-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Take a screenshot of a window and save it to the clipboard

In Leopard and later, the following keys can be held down while selecting an area (via Command-Shift-4 or Command-Control-Shift-4):

Space, to lock the size of the selected region and instead move it when the mouse moves
Shift, to resize only one edge of the selected region
Option, to resize the selected region with its center as the anchor point
