Whenever you can, use your Apple ear buds, or any other ones for that
matter. You will not hear any of your on screen commands on your recording.
As for stopping the sounds when not wearing ear buds, how would you know
what you were doing, unless you could read the screen?

Just tried clear record. The free version and straight away what I didn't like
is that when I hit the record button, the sound defaulted to headphones. Anyway
I can get it to default to speaker? Also, it didn't even recorded the music I
tested it with. I put this down to defaulting to headphone
But two finger double tap to stop recording works without noise in my
experience

Hi Ren,
What you do is go to the file menu of iTunes. Then go to add folder to library.
Now you have to choose your folder from a treeview. Once you get that selected,
press enter on open. It then should be added correctly.

Hi Keith,
If you can't run the computers, the only thing you can do is deauthorize all

that you can only do this once a year. I think the option is on the Store menu
in iTunes.

After adding punctuation to the rotor, go to punctuation and swipe down one

This is the little work around, but it will still be good once it is fixed.

For question 1, the answer is yes. When one restores from a back-up, the system
will place everything into the new iOS. If any apps are not accessible to the
