For the last few months, my screen will often become unresponsive. This happens in apps, on the homescreen, and from the lock screen.

Things I've done to try to remedy the problem:

-hard reset

-using the 9.3 beta

-reset the phone and set up from backup

The next logical step is to reset the phone and set up as new, but I'd like to avoid that for obvious reasons. Any suggestions other than that?

I have a mini 2 that struggles to connect to wifi in my bedroom. I have no problems connecting to wifi in the same room on my 6s+, which I believe has improved radios.

Does anyone know if the mini 4 or Air 2 has the improved radio? If so, I may consider upgrading.

Edit: it's my home wifi, not my iPad. The only reason my 6s+ has a strong signal is WiFi assist.

I plan on upgrading to a 6s+ and keeping my 6 as a backup instead of paying for insurance. The Apple website says to store an iPhone in a cool place with 50% battery life. It also advises to power on the device every 6 months and recharge.

Any other steps I should follow? I hope to use this as a back up for many years to come.

I'm about a month into the CG routine. I have low porosity, 2b hair that is pretty short (about chin length).

Currently, I am co-washing with Suave Naturals (the ocean scent), using Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Restorative conditioner as a rinse out AND leave in, and styling with Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie and Aussie Instant Freeze Gel.

Before co-washing with Suave, I was using Renpure Cleansing Conditioner, but since it has amodimethicone, I wanted to try co-washing with something CG approved. Since I've switched, I'm getting build up. The obvious answer is that the build up is coming from the Suave, but I thought it wasn't supposed to cause build up? Additionally, I'm wonderi

I've listened to iMore and CultCast and both are good, but I'd like to try some others. What's the best podcast about Apple news, rumors, and tech advice?

Edit: Thanks for the suggestions!

Quick background...I'm a former Mac user. Two years ago I sold my 2009 MBP for a cheaper HP laptop for one huge reason: I need to be able to use Microsoft Office. While Pages is OK I'm a teacher in a school that is totally Windows based and I need seamless compatibility when editing Word documents. While I generally favor OSX over Windows in all other areas, I'm most comfortable and productive using Office on a Windows machine. I've never used Office on a Mac. I've done lots of searching, and reviews are really mixed.

My HP laptop needs to be replaced. I've logged hours of searching for a new laptop and have found a few that I like. Our Best Buy has a Dell model that feels very premium and

  • Budget range: $700-$1000 (up to $1200 if it's a "steal" for what it's worth)

  • Purpose (netbook, ultraportable, mainstream, gaming, desktop replacement, etc.): Mainstream; portability not important

  • Screen size preference: 15 or 17

  • OS preference (Windows/ Mac/ Linux): Windows, but I also like OSX. I just need Word to work extremely well, and I'm not sure the Mac version of Office can offer this.

  • Gaming requirements (example games and desired fps/settings): Not necessary

  • Performance requirements (video, CAD, etc.): None in particular

  • Method of computer support (office supplier, college bookstore, self support): M

I am thinking about picking up the 16GB iPod Touch for my four year old twins. I've read all of the reviews and done my research on various gadgets, I am platform neutral (owning Android and iOS devices, and I'm aware of my options. I am leaning towards the iPod Touch for lots of reasons that I won't bore you with.

My only reservation is the timetable for when Apple will withdraw support in terms of iOS updates. Some of the earlier generations were only supported a couple of years. I understand that Apple is better than most Android OEMs on this, but would it be reasonable for me to expect that the iPod touch 5th gen would be able to handle iOS9? 10?

And obviously, I'm not buying anything
