HT1689 Why is there a limit on the size of apps I can download in the App Store using 3G/4G?

I understand that this is helpful for those that have limited data each month, but for me, and I'm sure everyone else who has unlimited data, this is just a nuisance and rather frustrating. I'm in the Air Force and where I am right now I have zero access to personal wifi. I am unable to update or download many apps. The download limit should at least be optional. Android has that figured out, why can't Apple? I love my iPhone, but I am extremely annoyed with this.

The limit is there because Apple and the carriers have decided it should be. Submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

  • Why is there a limit on the number of times a "DVD player region" can be changed, and can it be adjusted for more region changes, or an indefinite number of region changes?

    Why is there a limit on the number of times a "DVD player region" can be changed, and can this numbert be adjusted for more region changes, or an indefinite number of region changes?

    Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.

    Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed.
    Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:

  • Is there a limit to the size of string we can paste in a text area ?

    Hi,
    I have a dialog box and in it a Text Area. When I copy from another page a large amount of data and try to paste it in the text area - it doesn't work.
    I can't paste in it more data but I can type in it manually.
    Is there a limit to the size of string we can paste in a text area ??
    Thanks in advance:)

    There is no Limit to the string size. Since Swing follows MVC architecture, the data to be pasted is stored in model and the view shows the text to the user. If the text size is large, the screen appears to freeze for the some time while the data is stored in model and painted on the screen.

  • Why is there a maximum email attachment size?

    I can understand why there is a maximum MMS file message size but why is there a maximum email attachment size set by the handset? The limit is preventing me sending pictures from my phone. MMS messages are charged at a flat rate but GPRS data is chared per kB. My operator, Tmobile, say they have no limit on email message sizes (and obviously they make more money if you send a larger file. If I transfer my sim card to my laptop or PDA I am able to send any size of attachment with no problem. But with the sim back in the handset a limit of 100kB is imposed. I get the same result using both Tmobile or Orange sims. This is especially annoying if you have a phone that produces high quality images with file sizes several times the limit. You can have a great image with no means of sending it at its original resolution. Anyone know why this is?

    Most operator's (carrier's) MMSC (Multimedia Messaging Service Center) servers do set a limit.
    What the MMS size limit that's guaranteed to go through is defined by a document known as the MMS Conformance Document (maintained by OMA, Open Mobile Alliance, which is a standardization organization by mobile device manufacturers and network operators, primarily).
    So, both the handsets (phones) may or may not have a size limit depending on how it was designed, and in addition the networks also have their own limits, and they do not need to be the same, but the doc I mentioned specifies what the devices and networks have to support, at least.
    More on OMA (and you can try to find the MMS Conformance Doc, if you wish):

  • Why is my word and pdf files so large? How can I reduce the size?

    My document contains mostly photos from a database via a path to the actual jpeg photos on disk.
    There are 39 jpeg photos + a small amount of text with each photo.
    The 39 jpeg photos on the disk add up to be 5.79 mb.
    If I export the crystal reports document as [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Non Editable] the, the file size is 36.8 mb.
    If I export the same data as a [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Editable] the file size is only 3.1 mb.
    That is a difference of 33.7 mb! Why?
    Also, when I export the same data to a PDF file it is much larger than I think it should be; 12.7 mb.
    Why is my word and PDF files so large?
    How can I reduce the size of the word and PDF files? (without reducing the photo quality).
    Are there any tools to post process the Word or PDF files to reduce the file size?

    You can't, extra size is to hold the details

  • This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    And I meant go to the apple store physically without preordering it online, and I meant the Southampton one. So could I just stroll in apple store and buy a iPhone 5 in Southampton apple store and buy the iPhone 5 straight away? Because I didn't want to have to wait? I just want to go in and buy it and go out with it, if you guys get what I mean? And felipeV if it is in stock could I just buy it and leave with my iPhone 5?

  • I was wondering, is there an application I can download from the App Store that allows me to plug in a USB cord from my Iphone and print from any computer?

    I was wondering, is there an application I can download from the App Store that allows me to plug in a USB cord from my Iphone and print from any printer?

    Sorry but no. iOS does not support connecting a printer via USB, only via WiFi, and without such support there's no way a developer can build an app to provide such capability.

  • HT1145 I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.

    I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.  How do I see them?  I also can't see them on my iPad using FileBrowser.

    You don't have access to it to configure it via Time Machine? You lost me on that one, Time Machine is used for Backup.
    Here is a basic article on the first setup and what you should see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1178
    To configure Time Capsule you should be using "Airport Utility" 5.3 or higher that is located in the Utilities folder. You can tell if its version 5.3 because the icon will have blue lines instead of orange lines like the older versions. Since you are running Leopard 10.5.6 and you ran Software Update you are probably already running the latest 5.3 version.
    The light flashing amber means you haven't entered enough information so that it can get to the internet. Once you have that info entered the light will turn green.
    If your absolutely sure your CAT5 cables are good you can try a hard reset. I think you have to push the reset button on the back and hold it for 5 seconds or so until the amber light blinks rapidly, then when you release the button it does the reset then.

    Hope this helps! If not I would probably call AppleCare support or see if you can exchange it.
