why is the iphone 5 often damaged when you buy it?

the aluminum on the black iphone 5 is being damaged in Foxconn assembly, Apple is replacing all damaged scuffed,chipped/scratched devices.
also there was a 2,000 worker riot at Foxconn that has damaged the assembly line for the iphone, get your replacement iphone5 while you can as there is soon to be a shortage

  • Why do the playlists merge together when you turn the I touch ?

    Why do the playlists merge together when you turn the I touch ?
    I have multiple playlists on my I touch but if you turn it horizontal all lists are on the view.

    The iPhone isn't the issue.  It's your Apple ID.  Whenever you update an existing application, it requires that you use the Apple ID that was originally used to download the app in question.
    Did you create a new Apple ID for your new iPhone?

  • Why do the Iphone sounds mute when voice recording?

    Why do the Iphone sounds mute when voice recording?

    Thanks for the response!  I use Display Record with various sound/video themes and would like to include them in my presentations.  For what it's worth, I will make a suggestion to Apple, to make the muting of sounds, during recording a user preference/setting.

  • Anyone have a problem with the iPhone 6 freezing when you're trying to send a text?

    I seem to be having a couple of problems with the iPhone 6 or possibly the update 8.1.2.  Sometimes when I turn the phone horizontally to text, nothing happens and it only works if I turn it back vertically.  Also, sometimes when I receive a call from someone who is already on my contact list, only the number shows up and not the name or picture connected with that contact.  It appears when I answer, but sometimes I don't want to answer if I don't recognize the number.
    Anyone else having these issues?  Do we need another update to the software to fix these problems?

    How much available storage do you have on your iPhone? You can find this at Settings>General>Usage
    If your available space is measured in megabytes (MB) then it is causing problems for your phone's operating system.
    If your available space is measured in gigabytes (GB) then that isn't the source of the problems and you can move to some other troubleshooting steps. First, try a simple restart  (holding the sleep wake button for about 5 seconds until the power off slider appears).
    If the problems reoccur after you've restarted the phone, I recommend Reset All Settings, which is located in Settings>General>Reset

  • HT2729 hi, sorry first time user here! i just purchased a television series in HD but i only want to keep the SD (I read when you buy HD you recieve HD and SD) versions to cut down on space. How do i delete the HD version? Thanks

    am i able to delet a hd version but keep a sd?

    Delete some of the content on your iPad. If you have other TV shows that you have already watched or other movies that you've already watched, go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Videos. Swipe across any of the shows or movies to bring up the red delete button.
    You should be able to download them again later. But read this first.

  • Darn, I missed the Great iPod Giveaway when you buy an Apple Computer

    I still have these questions and I will do my best to keep this real short. I had tried the iPod a long time ago but I broke all 3 of them and except for the first one, I have no idea what I did. I have the new iPod: Missing Manual (can't remember the exact name, but it was written by David Pogue, who really writes in a style that I relate to.) I still would like to use this technology for the numerous classes I teach and exercise classes I incorporate into my teaching too; and of course in my own personal life.
    Besides being a bit ******** in this area of technology, I am hoping some people can offer me some help until I get the additional assistance that should be here any day. I saw the iPod Shuffle (I think it is called.) On the Apple Store home page, it is the one which looks like it is in the "landscape" position, has a larger display and shoot, I can't remember the name. Oh well, other than wanting some opinions on this one, I wanted to remember the name. I am putting together a new MacBook Pro and will purchase which ever music player I decide on--with your help of course!! Does this have a video monitor and the ability to take video recordings too? However, I no not need that function in the iPod I choose. I would like something that dos not look too "wild" as I walk in to class and introduce myself as the next music/dance instructor.
    I have kind f learned more about iTunes 9, which I assume is how I will download and upload all of my music. I know with the first unit, I broke it because it aid t install the CD (or whatever it came in) to get the iPod ready and I guess the HD formatted for music. I really am not sure what it is I had to install but it turned out it was already installed and since I installed it again, and than tried to figure out what was wrong with it, I broke it.
    Are there any recommendations with a good quality, great sounding (and I can afford extra earphones, if there are some that are far superior to the ones that come with the unit). I hope it has gotten a bit easier to understand because turning things and trying to remember where I put a genre or group of song types.
    Anyway, without getting into all the boring details why I have not had very good luck with getting one of these amazing machines up and running and than remembering how to do it when I want to add some more tunes and keep it nice and tidy.
    Thanks for your time, and I hope help. I really do appreciate any info that can help me one day master this very difficult task for me.

    The iPod touch is a fantastic little toy, though the touch screen does take some getting used to. Is there anything in particular about using it that you're unsure about?
    One great thing about the Touch is that it uses flash or solid state memory instead of a typical hard drive with many moving parts. That's one less thing that can go wrong!
    If you're looking for headphones, the best ones I can recommend are by Bose (http://www.bose.com). I'm honestly not sure about earphones--I've just used the earphones that come with my iPods and have very little experience with anything else. You could take a look through the MacWorld website and check reviews there. Here's one set of reviews: http://www.macworld.com/products/ipod/headphones.html
    As for speakers, if I would be purchasing them, I'd look at JBL products (http://www.jbl.com) or Logitech products (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/speakersaudio/home_pcspeakers/&cl=us,en). The exact item you need depends on what you're using the computer and speakers for (ie: if you're playing a video on a big screen, you may want one set of speakers, but if you're only playing music in a small room, a less expensive/smaller item would probably do the job just fine).
    Hope that helps!

  • What virus scan if any is on the original iPad when you buy it

    What virus protection if any is on the original iPad. When you buy it?

    Lets consider a few things, is the iPad generally safe on the interwebs without some sort of third party scan (scam) ware in your premise.
    Lets risk assess how many most/all PC and later day Mac systems become infected/compromised .
    They are auto downloads through a browser or Email attachments with auto-scripting of some sort.
    Open ports (no fire walling)
    Social engineering.
    And via Flash scripting.
    1) Now as for the IPad, built in protection consists of preventing virtually anything being downloaded/installed via the web browser. PDF can be but viewed within a sandbox.
    2) All authorized apps are distributed and installed only via Apples approval process via the App Store and ITunes
    (Some corporates can install their own software via private channels at a cost)
    3) A factory (Not jailbreaked) ios device has no access to command line so no ports can not be opened with ease.
    4) Social engineering - this usually involves driving the victim to their web browser then see point 1 above or point 5 below.
    5) Apple and Adobe haven't found a way to get a version of Flash to work on ios devices within the Apple released developer SDK and APIs. So no risk of running compromised Flash in foreseeable future at least not on a factory ios device.
    6) You do however run the very real risk of theft and even this has been considered with Find My iPad/iPhone apps and remote locking and system wiping functionality.
    Other than adding resource overhead what else could third party virus scanning do on such a locked down system ?

  • Have the IPhone g and when I slide my finger across it to unlock it or even turn it off it does not do anything does anyone know why.

    I have the IPhone 3g and when I slide my finger across it to unlock it or even turn it off it does not do anything does anyone know why.

    Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release and wait for it to restart.

  • Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    And Apple won't tell you. All they will tell you is what countries are supported for LTE right now. You can express your interest to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    but you will not receive a reply. It may be waiting on Telcel to approve. They may not feel that their LTE network is robust enough to handle that much load yet. But I'm just guessing. We'll just have to wait and see what develops.

  • With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?

    With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?
    I usually go to bed after my wife. I have the Do Not Disturb set for 11 pm to 7 am, and I can see the moon symbol.
    So why when I go to bed at midnight and plug in my iPhone to recharge do I get a LOUD BEEP?
    My wife is banning my phone from being next to my bed and an alarm clock.
    To me it seems that the "Do Not Disturb" should turn this beep into a vibrate.

    section2i:
    If that is true, then you should file that as a bug using the link above:
    If I am reading what you are saying correctly, you are saying that when vibrate is 'off', and you turn on the phone and plug it in that a vibration occurs, and that it is not respecting the vibrate 'off'.
    That would be a slightly different issue from what I am asking about (Do Not Disturb), and would probably need a separate bug report.

    Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.

  • Can't figure out why colors don't totally change when you select type with curser? It looks like it has by looking at it, but when you highlight the area after the old color is still there. It happens with objects to. Driving me NUTZ. Help!

    Can't figure out why colors don't totally change when you select type with curser? It looks like it has by looking at it, but when you highlight the area after the old color is still there. It happens with objects to. Driving me NUTZ. Help!

    Select the text, and open the Appearance palette (Come on guys, text highlight is irrelevant, it happens to objects too says the OP), and see what's listed there.  For a simple text object, there should only be a line item "Type", followed by "Characters", and when double-clicked the Characters line item expands to tell you the stroke and fill color.  For a basic object, there should be a fill and/or stroke.
    What happens sometimes, is that you end up adding extra strokes/fills to objects or text, and the appearance palette is where that will be noted.  Especially when you are dealing with groups, and/or picking up a color with the eyedropper, you may inadvertently be adding a fill or stroke on top of something.  You can drag those unwanted thingies from the Appearance palette into its own little trash can.
