Problems registering iPhone G3 in the UK?

Just picked up my lovely new iPhone plugged into iTunes and tried to register. But the form refuses to accept that I live in the UK so does not recognise my zip code or phone no.
Anyone else having this problem? Is registering important?
First iPhone so still stumbling around here.

i had a similar problem this morning with my 3g iphone. i cancelled registering. evrthing else worked fine then. you can always register another time - think the problem may be so many new people registering with apple

    Hi, i have a problem whith Iphone 4 whith the home boton! What can i do?

    As you do not state what the exact issue is... See here...
    The Home button is slow to respond
    If the Home button is slow to respond when exiting one application, try another application.
    If the issue exists only in certain applications, try removing and reinstalling those applications. For further assistance in installing and troubleshooting applications see this article
    If the issue continues, Try turning iPhone off and then on again. If the iPhone will not restart, try resetting it.
    If the issue is still happening, try to restore the iPhone
    Seek service is the issue is still occurring.

  • I have a problem when iPhone 5 includes the camera in the dark on the screen appear mlenki point that wink. what is it?

    I have a problem when iPhone 5 includes the camera in the dark on the screen appear mlenki point that wink. what is it?

    I still don't have any idea what caused the problem. It didn't go away when I re-synced. However, when I completely shut down the iPod (64GB Gen4) by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button until it gave me the red 'slide to turn off' control, and then rebooting it from scratch the problem went away.
    It looks like there was some conflict between the system and the app that is going to be quite difficult to find. If it happens again I'll try to be more observant of the conditions and report more information.

  • Problem with iphone 5 changing the time

    Has anyone had an issue with the iphone 5 changing the time. It does it whether it is set up for automatic time or manual. I have to constantly on a daily basis change to the correct time.

    Here is one of the links I was talking about https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4347494?tstart=120. It has been discussed a great deal, but I'm not so sure of a solution. You might take the time to read through this. I don't have a Verizon phone, so it has not impacted me. Good luck.

  • Problems on iphone 3G after the install of the the new OS4 & OS 4.0.1

    Dear All,
    Please find below a list of problems that I now have with my iphone after updating to the new operating system.
    1) NO WIFI
    2) NO GPS
    3) BLACKED OUT PICTURES IN CAMERA ROLL AND PHOTOS
    4) VERY SLOW TO ANSWER CALLS
    5) PHONE IS VERY SLOW TO LOAD APPS
    6) BATTERY NOW IS DEAD AFTER 3PM AFTER A FULL CHARGE OVER NIGHT AND NO USAGE.
    When I first got the iphone it really was amazing although the connectivity of the phone was not as good as my last phone it was still the best phone I have ever had. I was amazed at all the apps and how easy it was to use. It really was the best phone you could buy. There has been nothing wrong with my phone for over a year now and I have not had one complaint, until now. This new update has destroyed my phone. I had my car broken into and I had my TomTom stolen just as I got the phone. So to save money I installed a sat nav system to the iphone. This worked perfectly and I have been very happy with it as I use it for work all the time going to places that I have never been to before. This is now useless as the GPS no longer gets a signal. I will now have to get a TomTom as I have to have a sat nav for work and I have no idea when Apple will sort this out....if ever. I also go Geocaching and that uses the GPS as well, that is now on hold until works. For work I have to be in contact all the time and this is done through e-mail, updating apps, listening to the radio, watching video's and getting the weather is all done through my WIFI at home that I can no longer connect to unless I am sitting on the router. I then went to show some friends of mine some photo's that I had taken only to find that the photo's that I wanted where just black blocks.
    I have always shouted about how good this phone is and that there is nothing that it can't do, if you need it to do something there will be an app for that, well is there an app for taking back to the old operating system???? I can't believe that Apple has done this! I am so close to going back to my old phone that is the Nokia N95... at least I can get WIFI and GPS with that. I am so disappointed with this phone right now it's to the point that that I'm embarrassed to get my iphone out in case someone asks me to show them something and it won't work. I never thought I would be making excuses for Apple.
    I am now hearing all kinds of things about the Apple iphone 4 and that worries me as my contract is up for renewal in August, and I was going to get the new iphone 4 but now I think I might go back to Nokia or even blackberry.
    Apple, this really is very poor work, this phone was a revolution and took the world by storm. I fear now that you have lost your edge in the market and are going to get a very bad reputation very quickly and Blackberry will just take over. Software must be tested fully before releasing it this is the same with the new phones. People would rather wait a year to get a phone that works and is right with no problems rather then get a phone that just more problems than it is worth. To me its sounding very much like Microsoft. This is their trick....send it out and let the public tell us what's wrong, then we will take ages trying to fix it.
    Please can you look into this ASAP as I'm sure there are a lot of people out there who have the same problem as me and really want to get them sorted sooner rather than later, even if this means changing the phone back to the old operating system until you have this one sorted. At least the old one worked.
    Also, an idea of how long it will be until this gets sorted would be great news, if it will only be a few weeks I'm sure I could sort something out but if I have no idea I will be forced into making a big change. As I say I will be upgrading my phone soon and I would like to stay with Apple and be a loyal customer but I fear if there is no feed back and this is not sorted I will be going to another phone.
    PLEASE LET ME KNOW THAT APPLE IS TRYING THERE HARDEST TO FIX THE ASAP AND THAT THIS BLOG IS BEING TAKEN NOTICE OF.
    many thanks for your time and effort in this matter, I hope to hear from your very soon.

    You're in a mess because you installed two pieces of software that have not been released yet and are still in beta. If you were a registered developer(I'm guessing you're not) you'd have access to the developer forums to post your question. You're only solution is to wait until the software is OFFICIALLY released or use google & hope you don't end up making your phone permanently inoperable.

  • Problems with iPhone 4s since the IOS 6 update

    I've had nothing but problems with the IOS 6 update! The day after the update my camera started to slowly go out. I open my camera ap and the "lens cap" appears and then it sits for a few seconds and takes me back to my home screen. Annoying yes, but not the end of the world. But today I wanted to break my phone in half. I started to dial my brother's phone number and before I keyed the last two digits of his number my phone decided to call the number on it's own. I have yet get that off my screen. I can no longer make or receive any calls. When my phone is locked instead of my screen saver appearing my phone displays a screen that looks as though as my husband is trying to call me with his caller id photo- I swipe to "answer" it and it reverts back to the phone screen with keypad and the half dialed cell phone number of my brother! All calls are going straight to voicemail. When I leave the phone ap the green bar appears at the top of the screen and says "tap to return to call". If you tap to return to the call - there it is again-the half dialed number of my brother. I'm losing my mind and so frustrated. I put it into airplane mode hoping to "refresh" it and it still does it in airplane mode. I've never had to reset it and I'm not sure what option of resets to pick. Any advice is welcomed because I'm lost at this point.

    Try to reset the phone. Hold both the home and power buttons at the same time. When the Apple logo appears on the screen, you can release the buttons and wait for the device to reboot. No data is lost during ths process.

  • Hi, I upgraded my iphone 4 to iso 5 beta 6, but now it shows "No Service" at top left, and unable to complete your activation. Also tels that this device is not registered as part of the iphone developer programme. How could I fix this problem? Please..?

    Hi, I upgraded my iphone 4 (4.3.3) to iso 5 beta 6, but now it shows "No Service" at top left, and unable to complete your activation. Also tells that "this device is not registered as part of the iphone developer programme." How could I fix this problem? Please help me...,

    I had a similar occurrence with my just activated iPhone 4.
    I had been using the phone for three days when an odd occurrence with voice mail caused me to call tech support. After some discussion they decided to push the activation to my phone (even though I had been using it for three days). When I went to power it back up again I repeatedly got the "no service" notification. I got tech support on a land line and we tried hard reboots and so on. No joy. They told me to take it in to the point of sale and either the SIM card or the phone needed (or both) needed replacing.
    I tried one last hard reboot after dinner and the phone came up with service, but I took it in to the point of sale in the morning and they swapped the SIM card out and I went to a Genius Bar appointment to get the phone checked out. It is supposedly OK, but I am still having some problems when syncing it so I will have to visit the Genius Bar again tomorrow about that. At least I have not experienced the "no service" problem in the roughly 24 hours since the SIM card was replaced. (Fingers crossed)

  • Apple ID problem on iPhone 5: Cannot log in to verified address or reset or delete the address

    My Apple ID included my name and our company's domain, so to make things like calendar invites a bit more anonymous as they fly around the web, a while back I went to https://appleid.apple.com and changed my Apple ID to correspond to a more anonymous email address.
    While on https://appleid.apple.com I registered and verified the original email address as an Alternate Email Addresses.
    It seemed like it was hard or impossible to change some things, like my iPhone 5, to use the new Apple ID with iCloud, because it only allows me to enter a password, not change the account's email address.
    In general it seemed like everything still worked, though, until the recent update to iOS 7.
    In iOS 7 > settings > iCloud, it's asking me to "Sign in to iCloud" and to "Enter the Apple ID password for "[my old Apple ID email address]."  But when I do enter the password, it doesn't accept it and simply tells me to again to "Sign in to iCloud..." and to "Enter the Apple ID password..."
    I thought perhaps it was confusing my old ID w/ an old password, but neither old or new passwords work.
    After doing research in the Apple Support Communities, I found some saying that I'd just have to go to the bottom of the iCloud screen and it the "Delete Account" button.  Frustrated, I did.  But whether I next selected "Keep on My iPhone" or "Delete from My iPhone" the next thing is says is "Password Required" and "Enter the Apple ID password for  "[my old Apple ID email address]."
    Since that's the very thing that isn't possible for me (always giving the error "Your Apple ID or password is incorrect") I:
    went to https://iforgot.apple.com and entered my old Apple ID (which, again, is verified still in my Apple ID account as an Alternate Email Address)
    clicked "next"
    selected "Email authentication: To access your information, we will send an email to the address(es) on file for you."
    clicked "next"
    and go this message, "Email has been sent."
    However... it never sent the message to that email account.  So I did it again multiple times.  Then I went and checked spam filters. Then I looked at email logs on the server... Nope... it is not sending the message.
    In desperation I decided to just wipe the phone clean and start afresh through iTunes, where I clicked "Restore iPhone..."  When I did a dialogue box popped up that said, "Find my iPhone must be turned off before [iPhone 5's name] can be restored. Go to iCloud Settings on your iPhone and turn off Find My iPhone before restoring your iPhone." 
    On the phone in settings > iCloud, there is a "Terms and Conditions" blue link that I "Agreed" to, which gives me access in iCloud to turn off Find My iPhone, but as soon as I do, the Apple ID password for that old email address is demanded, again... and of course I don't have it...
    In researching I read that perhaps another alias could be added to my https://www.icloud.com > email > preferences > accounts, but as it turns out the alias can't be my old Apple ID.  It has to be an alias that include @icloud.com in the address.
    What can I possibly do, now, please? 

    Well, in my case things have turned out well.
    Apple Supports' highest level personnel talked to the Apple engineers.  The Apple engineers said that if I had a receipt for my phone that they would be able to release the phone's Apple ID.  I did have the receipt, because thankfully the Apple Store emailed it to me when I made the in-store purchase, so I emailed it them along w/ a link to this discussion because they were asking for a description of the scenario.
    A couple days later they emailed me saying:
    ~~~~~
    Thanks for contacting Apple.
    The device serial number on your case does not have an Activation Lock enabled. To get help for the issue you’re experiencing, you’ll need to contact AppleCare Support.
    You can start your support request online and get connected to an expert at the Contact Apple Support website:
    http://www.apple.com/support/contact
    [name]
    AppleCare Account Security
    ~~~~~
    Ouch. 
    I then recontacted the Apple Support person who had been helping me. He said he'd talked for 45 minutes with the Apple engineers and had one *last* idea.
    He had me log into https://appleid.apple.com/ > Password and Security, then he had me delete my Rescue Email Address (which was the same as my old/original Apple ID that has been stuck on my iPhone 5's iCloud account).
    After doing that he had me go to the Name, ID, and Email Adresses tab (which you see when you first log into https://appleid.apple.com/) and change my newer Apple ID back to my old original one. (Note: An email is required to verify each of these account changes.)
    Then I went into my iPhone's settings > iCloud, and YAY!!!! it let me log into my account!  Then I went to the bottom of the iCloud screen and deleted the account.
    Then I went back into Apple ID, logged in, and deleted the old Apple ID, re-entered my new one, and saved it. (Note: An email is required to verify each of these account changes.)
    Then I went back to my phone and entered my Apple ID's email address and password... and it worked!
    Now I just need to fix some stuff that got goofed up in all of the experimenting.
    If anyone else on the planet has read this much, I would recommend going back in and adding all the info you can to your Apple ID so that your backup addresses and aliases are right.
    Final thought: My problem was a result of an error/problem with Apple's product.  I kind of wish it was like other industries that try to compensate for their own mistakes (restaurant = free meal, airline industry = upgrade, etc.) because this took a LOT of my time.  But I do appreciate the support workers' perseverance in helping.

    This device does not have a sim card in it. Could this be the reason or am I missing something when I am trying to update.
    Yes. You can't update or restore any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim card need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. If you want to update, you need to get a sim card.

  • Problem, unable to register my mobile with the new enterprise email

    Dear All,
    I have a serious problem, my company changed the domain name thus my enterprise email has changed. Now I am unable to register my mobile with the new server. The system admin replied that once the mobile is regitered you won't be able to re-register it again with any other domain. I think it's a nightmare, I am unable to register any emails or even to reactivate my personal emails.
    I need your help,
    Thanks,
    George

    I had the exact same thing with my shuffle - same error message saying that it was corrupt so I restored it (wiping everything in the process) and the same message came up as soon as it reloaded. Thank god I didn't try it with my iPod or iPhone first. So many issues with this new version of iTunes!!!!!!!!
