CopyTrans Contacts, a multi-featured PC tool designed to manage iPhone contacts, notes and calendars has announced it goes on sale for 24 hours celebrating the release of Star Trek Into Darkness movie.

 

The sale will be preceded by a retweet event between May 15th and May 16th at 4PM New York time directly on the CopyTrans twitter page which will decide the final discount rate:

 

The rules of the game are simple. The more retweets collected between May 14th at 3PM and May 15th at the same time, the higher the discount rate for the announced sale. The rate of discount could grow up to ninety per cent provided enough total retweets were counted.

Transferring iCloud notes to your iPhone or your PC is mission impossible if you are trying to use conventional Apple tools. I recently found a simple method to bring notes from my “iCloud” account to “On My iPhone” account.

 

To transfer my iCloud notes to my “On My iPhone” account, I used a small Windows tool called CopyTrans Contacts. You can download the program from here:

 

1. Download and run the program. Connect your iPhone to your computer

 

2. Let all of your iPhone data load up in the main program window and click on the Notes icon on the left-hand side. Your iPhone notes will be listed

 

3. You will also be prompted to log in to your iCloud account. Enter your Apple ID and password associated with your iCloud account and click on the “Login” button

 

 

4. Your iCloud notes will now also get listed in the program’s main window. Your iCloud notes will be designated by a small cloud icon to the right

 

5. You will now need to export your iCloud notes to your computer. To do so, simply select all of your iCloud notes (check the boxes on the left of each note entry) and click on the “Export selected” button

 

 

6. A new window will open asking you where to save your iCloud notes. Select a location which you can easily access – for example your PC Desktop. Your iCloud notes will be exported to your computer in the form of individual HTML files

 

 

7. Next, import the HTML files back to your iPhone by clicking on the “Import notes” button

 

 

8. Your iCloud notes will now be imported directly to your “On My iPhone” account

 

 

So far, this is the only method I know of to bring iCloud notes to “On My iPhone” account.

If you are not a huge fan of typing using the on-screen keyboard on your iPhone, you can use a popular free app to take notes in your own handwriting.

 

While there are a number of apps out there which allow you to take notes on your iPhone in handwriting, Use Your Handwriting GOLD will help you use your iPhone or iPad screen available space as much as possible in order facilitate your note-taking experience. Writing takes full advantage of your iDevice screen. If you are using the iPhone, all notes are written in landscape.

 

 

As you write, the app takes note of when you reach the end of the screen then scrolls left to add more space. While writing, you can use the eraser tool as well as the ability to disable auto-scrolling.

 

You can prioritize your notes by importance and sort them by categories you can customize.

 

 

You can download and use this iPhone note handwriting app for free with banner ads shown in the app’s interface. If you choose to upgrade to the paid version, you get backup and sync of your handwritten notes, multicolor writing, as well as an ad-free experience.

Have you ever found the amount of news and interesting articles content you find on the Internet overwhelming? I for example read news articles early in the morning before work and read articles on topics I am interested in after work. Sometimes, the amount of articles which would interest me is more than I could physically read without sacrificing too much of my free time or simply without tiring my eyes after a long day at work.

 

What I you could hire someone to read all the articles you are interested in? This is where Umano – a free iPhone app comes to the rescue. Umano has an army of human readers (at least two males and a female) who would pre-read daily articles from news, tech, and DYI sites such as Forbes.com, BBC, Gizmodo, Lifehacker, etc so you can download the voice recordings for each article and listen to what interests you in much the same way as you do when listening a podcast.

 

 

The scope of the articles is wide-ranging and ever-increasing and you can personalize your content by placing the articles you wish to hear in an “On-the-go” playlist for listening at a later time. There are also six main categories by which Umano categorizes the content read: Entertaining, Must Know, Geeky, Entrepreneurial, Inspirational, and Scientific – hopefully more categories are on the way.

 

 

The service is free and does not require a subscription and I use it to listen to articles on a daily basis while commuting to my workplace. There is also an Android version of the app available in Google Play.

Think it is about time to jailbreak your iPhone 5? I think so too. Let’s go. All you need is your iPhone, a PC or a Mac, a USB cable and a small program which will do the work. Follow the below instructions to jailbreak your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch in literary minutes!

 

Legal status of Jailbreak

Legal all over the world, including the USA.

 

Why would you want to Jailbreak your iPhone?

Most people would jailbreak their iPhone after having had their device for some time and when they decide it is time to go beyond Apple limitations imposed on their iOS device. Such limitations include being able to only download apps from the official AppStore.

What will Jailbreak allow you to do?

Jailbreaking your iOS device will allow you to:

  • customize and extend iOS and in-app user interface (themes)
  • download apps which have not been approved by Apple

Jailbreak will NOT prevent you from:

  • accessing the AppStore
  • using iTunes with your iPhone
  • making phone calls
  • sending messages

One thing: remember not to restore your iPhone with iTunes. This will remove Jailbreak and all its data from your iPhone.

The steps for Jailbreaking your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch

1. Make sure your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch iOS is up to date

 

 

2. Download the jailbreak program called evasi0n for both PC or Mac from here:

 

http://evasi0n.com/

 

3. PC users, extract the program from the ZIP and place the evasi0n.exe file to your PC’s Desktop. Double-click on the file in order to run the program

 

 

4. Now connect your iPhone to your PC and stand by until evasi0n recognizes your iOS device. Next click the “Jailbreak” button

 

 

5. The process of jailbreaking your iPhone will now begin automatically. Make sure you wait until the process fully completes and you do not touch your iPhone or your computer during that time

 

 

6. In a matter of minutes, evasi0n will instruct you to unlock your iDevice and tap on the new “Jailbreak” icon which has now appeared on your iPhone Home Screen

 

 

7. Do as instructed and tap “Jailbreak”

 

 

8. The process of jailbreaking will now continue and in no time, your iPhone will be successfully jailbroken

 

 

This is how to jailbreak your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch in the matter of minutes! You can now access the Cidia app from the Home Screen of your iDevice for countless possibilities of apps, extensions, customization themes, and more.

 

 

This iPhone jailbreak guide was inspired by: iFans.
