RENT:  The iPhone.  $100 Per Month.  2 Month Contract.  Then Buy for $399.

Seriously, how many people here who own the iPhone would have rented the iPhone for $100 per month for 2 months (for a grand total of $200) knowing that it would be available in the beginning of September for $399?
In essence, isn't that EXACTLY what happened to everyone who purchased it the first week?
So who here would have done it?

I may have. It's all in how you look at it. You rent cable service for $100 a month and don't get to keep anything tangible for it. Why wouldn't you do the same for the iPhone? You would have had access to the internet, phone calls, music, etc. Not much different than renting cable services. Heck, you rent the voice service on the iPhone for what, a minimum of $60 per month?

  • I have lightroom.  My photos are stored on an external disk drive with a backup disk.  With iCloud, will all of my photos go to the cloud?  Will I still need the external drives? Is the $9.99 per month for just one year or for always?

    I am an amateur photographer and have lightroom.  My photos are stored on an external disk drive with a backup disk.  With iCloud, will all of my photos go to the cloud?  Will I still need the external drives? Is the $9.99 per month for just one year or for always? 

    If the iTunes database files are on that drive, launch iTunes with the Shift key(Windows) or Option key(Mac OS X) held down, select Choose Library, and navigate to it. The computer may need to be authorized to play protected content, and if the library contains rented movies, those won't play.
    If not, import the content to an iTunes library.

    I bought the 9.99 per month subscription to LR Mobile.  There was a special running that included Photoshop with this subscription.  How do I download and register Photoshop?

    If you have the PS+LR bundle, then you should install the Creative Cloud app, first.   One CC is installed, it’ll show all your eligible products on its Apps list, with Install buttons next to the apps you’re licensed to use, and Trial or Try next to the apps you’re not licensed to use.
    The CC app is the first thing on the Adobe Products page.  It is a desktop app, not tablet app.

  • Why is the 1st bill on £14.99 per month contract £15.14.(£12.62 + vat)

    My wife an myself have recently taken out £14.99 per month contracts. We have both received our first bill for £15.14 (£12.62 + vat).I have downloaded both bills which state EE Regular - 500MB £14.99 with no explanation as to where the extra charges are from.Could someone enlighten me as to what the extra charges are for or are EE trying it on.

    When did you sign up to this contract? That's when your service contract starts and also when the min. term starts from.
    When was your 1st bill issued? There's usually a few days delay after the contract starts before the billing is set up. Those few days are what you are paying in your 1st bill on top of the month in advance. It is quite usual.

  • My 30 day Photoshop trial finished yesterday. I purchased the $9.99 per month Photoshop package and received an email saying "Thank you for your payment etc" But when I go to open PS it still says "the trial has expired.."

    My 30 day Photoshop trial finished yesterday. I purchased the $9.99 per month Photoshop package and received an email saying "Thank you for your payment etc" But when I go to open PS it still says "the trial has expired.." Is it supposed to work automatically or is there a step I'm missing?

    1. Close all the Adobe Applications. Log-out from creative.adobe.com and re-login.
    2. Once you launch the software and when you get the error saying the the trial version has expired, you will have an option saying "License this software".
    3. Select this option and enter your credentials and click next.

    I own CS 5 Design Premium. Reading the FAQs, it seems I am eligible to upgrade to CS 6 but I can't find the upgrade to purchase and download. I can't upgrade to CC because $49 per month is too much for me -- I don't use this product for work. The $29 offer seems reasonable but $49 is way too much. I don't need the majority of the programs included in CC, but subscribing to just three of them will cost way more. Really not sure what to do here :-(

    Thanks Ned. I did find this page, however it isn't an upgrade. I have been purchasing Adobe products for years so that I could just pay the upgrade price for current products. With the current system, I would be paying much more than I would for an upgrade. For example, I have been using my version of CS for at least three years. The upgrade cost me $750 so that comes out to around $21 per month. I guess I have no options as far as upgrading except for paying for the overpriced CC. Oh well, time to start looking for alternatives. It was just so convenient to have the same programs at home that I use at work.
