[apple-iphone] What cool gadgets are out there?
I was looking at the Wahoo Fitness Run Pack and thought that was pretty neat.  Is this the best Fitness monitor out there?  What else is available that works well with the iPhone 4S?  I know there are tons for gadgets on the market for the Iphone. I know of the "NEST" Thermostat, even IGRILL works with monitoring temperatures on the grill as you cook.
 
 What else is out there pretty cool?

No iCloud set up but I believe the incomplete download may have been the culprit. Seems to be working OK again. Thanks for the tips.

Re: [apple-iphone] Password Popup
If an upgrade on one of the aps is incomplete that may happen.  Look on your upgrade aps page.  The only way turn it off is to go to a wifi zone and allow the upgrade to be completed.

Re: [apple-iphone] How do I send a Photo from my Mac to my iPhone?
Well there's one simple way that works: create an album on the mac and put in it all the photos that you'd like to see on your iPhone.  In fact you may create as many albums as you like.  Then before syncing, on the photos tab check all the albums that you'd like to and then sync.  You'll find all the albums then on your iPhone and the photos in them.

[apple-iphone] Fair Labor Association publishes findings of Apple/Foxconn Investigation
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/9To5Mac-MacAllDay/~3/2KgSfDsxrJA/ 
  
 Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: Fair Labor Association 
 publishes findings of Apple/Foxconn Investigation via 9to5Mac by Jordan 
 Kahn on 3/29/12 
  
  
  
  
  
  
 We knew the Fair Labor Association would publish the initial findings 
 of its investigation into Apple's Foxconn facilities, and now the 
 report is officially available through the organization's website. The 
 full report released today and is here. The press release outlining the 
 investigation is below. According to the recommendations, Foxconn 
 committed to "bring its factories into full compliance with Chinese 
 legal limits and FLA standards on working hours by July 2013." 
  
 The last we heard from the FLA about its audits into Apple's Foxconn 
 facilities was that it found "tons of issues." Apple became the first 
 technology company accepted as a member into the organization after 
 controversies surrounding working conditions in Apple's supply chains 
 abroad became mainstream. As for what the FLA found in its audits of 
 the three Foxconn facilities, here is an excerpt from the report: 
  
 FLA's investigation found that within the last 12 months, all three 
 factories exceeded both the FLA Code standard of 60 hours per week 
 (regular plus overtime) and the Chinese legal limits of 40 hours per 
 week and 36 hours maximum overtime per month. During peak production 
 periods, the average number of hours worked per week exceeded 60 hours 
 per worker. There were periods in which some employees worked more than 
 seven days in a row without the required 24 hours off. 
  
 The FLA said Foxconn's commitment will "reduce working hours to legal 
 limits while protecting pay, improve health and safety conditions, 
 establish a genuine voice for workers, and will monitor on an ongoing 
 basis to verify compliance." This will lead to a maximum 49-hour 
 workweek, including overtime for employees and a decrease in monthly 
 overtime from 80 hours to 36 hours. While we reported some workers were 
 unhappy with working fewer hours, Foxconn also committed to a 
 compensation package for workers with reduced overtime: 
  
  
  
 More importantly, while employees will work fewer hours, Foxconn has 
 agreed to develop a compensation package that protects workers from 
 losing income due to reduced overtime. In order to maintain capacity 
 while reducing workers' hours, Foxconn committed to increase its 
 workforce significantly as it builds additional housing and canteen 
 capacity. 
  
 Apple issued the following statement to The Wall Street Journal: "We 
 think empowering workers and helping them understand their rights is 
 essential." 
  
 FAIR LABOR ASSOCIATION SECURES COMMITMENT TO LIMIT WORKERS' HOURS, 
 PROTECT PAY AT APPLE'S LARGEST SUPPLIER 
  
 Independent Investigation Uncovers Significant Issues; 35,500 Anonymous 
 Surveys Give Voice to Worker Concerns 
  
 FLA to Monitor, Publish Progress Reports on Apple and Foxconn 
 Implementation 
  
 WASHINGTON, D.C.— After a thorough, independent investigation found 
 significant issues with working conditions at three factories in China 
 operated by Apple's major supplier Foxconn, the Fair Labor Association 
 secured groundbreaking commitments that will reduce working hours to 
 legal limits while protecting pay, improve health and safety 
 conditions, establish a genuine voice for workers, and will monitor on 
 an ongoing basis to verify compliance. The nearly month-long 
 investigation found excessive overtime and problems with overtime 
 compensation; several health and safety risks; and crucial 
 communication gaps that have led to a widespread sense of unsafe 
 working conditions among workers. 
  
 "The Fair Labor Association gave Apple's largest supplier the 
 equivalent of a full-body scan through 3,000 staff hours investigating 
 three of its factories and surveying more than 35,000 workers. Apple 
 and its supplier Foxconn have agreed to our prescriptions, and we will 
 verify progress and report publicly," said Auret van Heerden, President 
 and CEO of the Fair Labor Association, a coalition of universities, 
 non-profit organizations and businesses committed to improving the 
 health, safety, fair treatment and respect of workers worldwide. 
  
 FLA's investigation found that within the last 12 months, all three 
 factories exceeded both the FLA Code standard of 60 hours per week 
 (regular plus overtime) and the Chinese legal limits of 40 hours per 
 week and 36 hours maximum overtime per month. During peak production 
 periods, the average number of hours worked per week exceeded 60 hours 
 per worker. There were periods in which some employees worked more than 
 seven days in a row without the required 24 hours off. Full worker 
 survey data is available at www.fairlabor.org/affiliate/apple. 
  
 Foxconn has committed to bring its factories into full compliance with 
 Chinese legal limits and FLA standards on working hours by July 2013, 
 according to its remediation plan in FLA's report. The supplier will 
 bring working hours in line with the legal limit of 49 hours per week, 
 including overtime. This means a reduction in monthly overtime hours 
 from 80 to 36, and would be a significant improvement given that most 
 of the technology sector is struggling to address excessive overtime. 
  
 More importantly, while employees will work fewer hours, Foxconn has 
 agreed to develop a compensation package that protects workers from 
 losing income due to reduced overtime. In order to maintain capacity 
 while reducing workers' hours, Foxconn committed to increase its 
 workforce significantly as it builds additional housing and canteen 
 capacity. 
  
 FLA also discovered that 14 percent of workers may not receive fair 
 compensation for unscheduled overtime. The assessment found that 
 unscheduled overtime was only paid in 30-minute increments. This means, 
 for example, that 29 minutes of overtime work results in no pay and 58 
 minutes results in only one unit of overtime pay. Foxconn committed to 
 pay workers fairly for all overtime as well as work-related meetings 
 outside of regular working hours. In addition, FLA secured agreement 
 from Foxconn and Apple to retroactively pay any worker due unpaid 
 overtime. The companies are currently conducting an audit to determine 
 the payments due to workers. 
  
 According to FLA's worker survey, 64 percent of employees say that 
 compensation does not meet their basic needs. FLA will conduct a cost 
 of living study in Shenzhen and Chengdu to assist Foxconn in 
 determining whether worker salaries meet FLA requirements for basic 
 needs, as well as discretionary income. 
  
 FLA observed other serious issues in areas such as health and safety, 
 worker integration and communication, treatment of interns, and China's 
 social security enrollment, among others. 
  
 A considerable number of workers feel concerned about the protection of 
 their health and safety. More than 43 percent of the workers report 
 that they have experienced or witnessed an accident. These accidents 
 range from hand injuries to factory vehicle accidents. Foxconn has 
 committed to be more inclusive of workers in health and safety 
 monitoring and decisions. 
  
 Until now, Foxconn only recorded accidents that resulted in a 
 production stoppage. Beginning immediately, Foxconn committed to 
 require supervisors and workers to report all accidents resulting in an 
 injury. 
  
 Many of Foxconn's health and safety problems, including blocked exits, 
 lack of or faulty personal protective equipment and missing permits, 
 were immediately corrected during the course of the investigation. FLA 
 found that, one year after the Chengdu explosion, Foxconn had improved 
 operating procedures, measurement, and documentation to reduce risks 
 related to aluminum dust where Apple products are made. 
  
 The assessment also found that the union at Foxconn is dominated by 
 management representatives and does not provide true worker 
 representation. In keeping with local laws, Foxconn has agreed to 
 ensure elections of worker representatives without management 
 interference. 
  
 FLA also secured agreement by Foxconn to find alternative ways to 
 address low enrollment in social security benefit programs and to adapt 
 its internship program to ensure that interns enjoy the protections 
 necessary for a productive, healthy and safe educational experience. 
  
 "If implemented, these commitments will significantly improve the lives 
 of more than 1.2 million Foxconn employees and set a new standard for 
 Chinese factories," van Heerden said. 
  
 Following the FLA's methodology, independent assessors logged more than 
 3,000 staff hours inside the factories. They evaluated conditions based 
 on visual observation and review of policies, procedures and 
 documentation (payroll and time records, production schedules, employee 
 records); interviewed hundreds of Foxconn workers and managers both on- 
 and off-site; and conducted an anonymous worker perception survey of 
 35,500 randomly-selected Foxconn workers – providing an in-depth 
 understanding of working conditions, particularly during peak 
 production of Apple products. 
  
 Under FLA rules, its assessors have unfettered access to conduct 
 thorough investigations of Apple suppliers. This investigation of three 
 Foxconn factories at Guanlan, Longhua, and Chengdu, in China is the 
 beginning of FLA's in-depth, thorough examination of the entire 
 operation to assess whether workers' rights and labor standards are 
 being respected throughout Apple's supply chain. 
  
 "Joining the Fair Labor Association is voluntary. But once a company 
 joins, FLA sets the rules of investigations and has full access to any 
 supplier, owns the information collected and publishes its findings and 
 recommendations for remedial action," van Heerden said. 
  
 In addition to follow up studies related to this first investigation, 
 FLA will verify Apple's and Foxconn's implementation of their 
 remediation plans and will report publicly on progress.

If it's a single photo you could email it, but in general you need to sync photos in iTunes.
