Charging me a shipping fee for the new drive

Cat you posted this and it's a small part of it but please explain why.
A free CD containing the full application suite will soon to be available to order from our Online Store (a Shipping & Handling charge will apply).
I paid for the card and as long as the card is not 5 years old I expect CL to support it for free. Why charge us a shipping charge when it could be put in the download section for all of us. This is why CL's days are numbered and if you think this monopoly Cl has over us will continue please call Senator Russ Fiengolds office here in Wisconsin and ask them what I have sent them.
I have copied tons of peoples posts from last year and explained to them how this company takes money but never fixes the problems a lot of us have.
I'm getting old waiting for you guys to get it together and would like to see something before I die.

First let's clarify, they are not charging a shipping fee for the DRIVERS. You can download the drivers all you want. BUT if you want the full software suite IN ADDITION to the drivers then you gotta pay. It's just too large of a download for CL to host it. Which is why many of us agree that a bit torrent file would be the ideal solution. Everyone shares the bandwidth. http://forums.creative.com/creativel...essage.id=6344?It kinda sucks that we don't even get so much of a "We'll pass along the idea of hosting a .torrent file to the people in charge" from the mods ... I mean hell, back when I was a moderator for evga's forums we were in direct contact with the head marketing guy. We would constantly pass along things?from the forums like that.
And evga LISTENED to the people, and even involved them in some of the decision making process. It's really not that hard. And we were able to share information about software fixes, etc. HEAR THAT MODS? Seriously, all you have to do is say "We'll look into the possibility of hosting a .torrent" and you've instantly satisfied a lot of people concerning this issue. WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT?!? I've been in your shoes...(well not really...evga never pissed off as many people as CL has lately...) I understand that it is difficult having to deal with a bunch of people who are this upset. But...seriously... The effort to try to appease the pitch-fork and torch wielding mob seems a little sketchy at best. *sigh*?

    Go to the Apple Store webpage and in the upper right go to Account and select Track an Order. There you will find the status of your order. You only get a tracking order when the items ships.

    I have a new Samsung phone and I live in CT. Last month they charged me $38 on my bill for the sales tax for the new phone which was $600. I'm paying for the phone itself over 20 installments of $30 each.  Now again I'm getting that same $38 charge. I can't  believe that the monthly CT tax is higher than the payment for the phone itself. Does this make sense. Last time I spoke with them on the phone it was for 1 1/4 hours for something simple. I don't want to call unless I need to. The salesman told me nothing about any of this. Thank you for any help you can offer.

    The bill from last month states:
    CT state sales tax**     $38.10
    ** In some states sales tax or surcharges are calculated on the full cost of the full retail price or VZW cost of the device you purchased and not on the discounted price you pay. The sales tax or surcharges charged on your device was based on $599.99 and appears on this first bill.
    The current bill says the same.
    Actually, now I'm realizing that last month's bill stated I was making the first payment toward the phone. Now this month also says it's the first payment toward the phone when it's really the second.

  • Hi! How can I change the shipping address for the program of replacement of the 1 generation ipod nano? I've already received the empty box and now I should send back the old ipod but I'd like to receive the new one to another address. Thank you.

    I would contact Apple directly and have them work with to get the iPod shipped to a new/different address.

  • Can I use my 10W iPad 2 charger for the new iPad air?

    I need several chargers - work, home, travel. Therefore, can I use the 10W chargers from previous iPad models for the new iPad Air? I don't want to purchase 2/3 additional chargers when I purchase my new iPad. Also, can I use the 12W iPad air charger for my iPhone? I don't want to fry it so want to confirm beforehand.

    The new model will have the 12W charger, so you should be able to use it with the new model - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327 :
    iPad models come with one of two different adapters. iPad (third generation) and earlier comes with a 10W adapter while iPad (4th generation) comes with a 12W adapter. iPad mini comes with a 5W adapter.
    While these USB Power Adapters are designed for use with iPad or iPad mini, you can use them to charge all iPhone, iPad, iPad mini, and iPod models by connecting them with either the Lightning to USB cable or the 30-pin to USB cable.

  • Charged a broken device fee for a device not broken when sent.

    I needed to start communication with others in the community about my most recent transaction with Verizon, dating back to the start of January 2014. I have been a customer (with full subscription) of verizon wireless since 2010. My most recent transaction has been extremely unsatisfactory and has completely turned me off to renewing my contract with Verizon when it is complete.
    I opened a new line in November of 2013 in order to slowly phase into a phone number with an area code that matched my current living situation. I also wanted to enjoy a new phone, as my S3 had been slowly letting me down. My choice was the LG G2, which is a great phone with the exception of the first two that Verizon sent me had a major flaw, in which the phone would enter a lock loop, when I tried to open the phone up to use it. The issue happened over 50% of the time, and I had to wait several minutes in order to get the phone to work. Verizon, did what I thought at the time, was a very good job handling the issue and shipping me out replacements both times, finally landing on a 3rd LG G2 that did not have the issue.
    I received an email a few weeks later that I was being assessed a $299 fee for a broken device. I immediately reached out to Verizon to find out what the heck was going on. I did not send in a device that had any physical issues, and only known issue is that aforementioned problem with the lock loop, which Verizon admitted was a manufacturer defect and replaced it. I spoke with a rep who assured me he was on my side and would help me rectify the problem. I went through almost an hour of communication until he told me that he would have to do more research and get back to me. The only thing I received was an email showing me a phone with a large singular crack down the middle. This is either not my phone or the crack happened off of my watch. I don't think I should be held responsible. Am I wrong here? I have been relatively pleased with Verizon and I don't mind paying a premium because they seem to have good service. I do have to say that this is completely unfair, and out of the principle of the issue I wouldn't renew my contract with Verizon, This is a shame for them, or I would hope, as I have two current lines and just got engaged which would mean my fiance would sign on with me at the end of her contract. I am certainly thinking of going elsewhere now.
    I have spent a lot of money with these guys, and this seems like almost blatant robbery. If the cost made sense I would want to pursue the issue in small claims court. I am that insensed. At this point I started a new line to get a new phone and ended up paying more than retail for it, now I am saddled with another two year contract AS WELL AS having paid full price (now with a $299 fee) for the phone. I broke a screen once with my Samsung S3 and it cost me $100 to fix. I  would have NEVER sent a broken phone in to get charged $300 for. I have to say I am extremely dissapointed. Safe to say once I stroke that check Verizon will have officially lost a customer.

    Here is the problem. Verizon sent you a label to return the device via a carrier of their choosing. USPS or FedEx or UPS
    when you packaged it there is a certain responsibility that it is packed securely.
    Now having said that there can be a doubt; that the device was damaged by the return carrier. But that is an uncertainty, and it would be a decision for a court to decide.
    You can file a small claims case against Verizon wireless and ask for the $299 plus the filing fees and the amount you lose from work per hour and then have Verizon prove that the photo was actually your photo.
    Please be aware just showing a picture will not sway a judge to believe Verizon. They will get statements from employees at the return center attesting it was damaged in the return box.
    However your best defense will be to explain to the judge there is no proof that the damage was your doing. In that it could have been the return carrier. Or the return center.
    You may prevail. But it will take a little work on your part.
    Verizon will more than likely contact you prior to the court date to settle. If they do settle with you, get the settlement in writing first and for the full amounts. Do not agree to arbitration and if the settlement does not meet your needs simply refuse and go to small claims court.
    I wish you, Good Luck

  • When ordering enlarged photos from iPhoto, must I purchase them one at a time and pay a shipping fee for each and very one of them.  Sort of a ripoff but I can't figure how to purchase many and pay one shipping fee.

    You may have better luck posting in the iPhoto forum if no one on this forum is able to assist. I'm sure you are doing something wrong though.

  • Is there a fee for the podcast service?

    Is there a fee for the podcast service?

    If you're here asking about the Mac OS X Server Podcast Producer, that's part of Mac OS X Server, and Mac OS X Server is a feature-upgrade to, and does cost more than, the more familiar Mac OS X (client) software package.  You'll also need sufficient network bandwidth for whatever you're planning here, particularly if you're going to be distributing this podcast material directly from your Mac OS X Server box.
    If you're here asking about creating podcasts using Garageband or other tools, then yes, there can be fees associated with those products.  Garageband is part of the iLife tools, and a version of that is installed with new Mac systems, though upgrades do cost money.  (And get yourself a good external cartioid condensor or equivalent microphone; the audio quality from the built-in mikes is very poor.)
    If you're here asking about the podcast downloads using iTunes and accessing the Apple servers for the podcasts you can download - and specifically about publishing the podcasts - then I believe those are free (at least for non-commercial podcasts), but you'll want to check the iTunes Making a Podcast document for details
    If I've not guessed at your particular goal(s) here (your question is unfortunately somewhat ambiguous), please consider providing a little more background on what you're up to and what problem(s) you're solving.

  • Can I use iphone 4s USB cable to recharge for the new ipad

    Can I use iphone 4s USB cable to recharge for the new ipad

    The iPod, iPad & iPhone cables are identical, however, the chargers are not.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • HT3302 Where can I get a screen replaced for the new ipad?

    Do apple repair screens for the new ipad?

    Apple does not repair iPads, but if the screen has been damaged due to accident will replace the entire iPad for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ on the iPad, the cost will be relatively minimal; $49 in the US. Otherwise, see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq/
    There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipad repair".  You can also look for parts and instructions and do the repair yourself. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPad serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform your own repair, you will get no further support from Apple.
    This is the iPod touch forum, by the way.
    Regards.

    Apple id : [email protected]

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • When is the new docking station going to come out for the new iPod touch with the lightning connection?

    I have just got the new iPod Touch for christmas. I am now wondering when a docking station will come out for the new iPod Touch with the new lightning connection. I have not been able to find a docking station that fits the iPod Touch without having to buy the adapter(the adapter does not allow the iPod to be charged)
    When will a docking station come out for the new iPod Touch?
    Olivia Davey

    You would have to ask the makers of the docking stations that question. Belkin has a dock now that uses Apple's Lightning cable:
    http://www.belkin.com/us/F8J057-Belkin/p/P-F8J057
    so all it basically does is provide a stand and pass through the headphone jack. There's at least one other dock here:
    http://www.thelightningdock.com/products/iphone-5-dock
    If you're referring to Apple's Universal Dock, there have been no indications that they will make any new dock, though of course none of us here know their plans for future products.
    Regards.

  • Does anyone know of a suitable dock for the new iPad Air?

    After purchasing a new iPad Air on Friday, I searched for a charging/syncing dock from Apple.  There are none!  Then, I searched the Internet for 3 days, and the choices are few. 
    Does anyone know of a good and sturdy dock for the new iPad Air?  I have very little desk space and always buy an Apple dock for my iPhones and iPads.
    Is it possible that the dock for the iPad 4 could be used for the new iPad Air?  Currently, I have an iPad Third Generation and its own dock, which is 30 pins.  The available 8 pin adapter is not sturdy enough to put an iPad Air on.
    For my iPhone 5, I have a Twelve South High Rise dock (because of the case), but it won't do for an iPad. 
    Any ideas?

    This isn't going to be super helpful because I don't know of any by name, but have you looked through App Store? I am almost positive you will come across at least one in there. This assumes you are running software version 2.0.
