1.0.2 Update and still no volume fix

Ok, I went to the AT&T store by my office and I call my house phone from every iPhone in the store, and they all had the same level volume as my iPhone. (LOW) So I no longer believe those FEW people that say it must be my phone and that there phone does not have volume issues.
I drive a somewhat noisy vehicle, and still this is the only phone I have ever had issues hearing callers on. For those people who say they have no issues, well then I suggest they leave there house or quiet office and tell me if they still have no hearing issues. Try hearing callers in a crowded restaurant or coffee shop.
To sum this up we now have two updates from Apple and they still ignore this problem. When we they fix this

They made the iPod the best feature on the phone, and that would be fine if advertised it as an iPod 6th generation that includes a phone... but they didn't. It is called iPhone that has an iPod, and the slacked off on the phone.
It is a phone, an iPod and an internet device in no particular order. Although I agree with you that the earpiece volume needs to be improved, this is the first generation of this device which was just released less than 2 months ago. For you it is the earpiece volume and for others it is something else that hasn't been addressed yet in less than 60 days so the assumption is Apple doesn't care and isn't working on any of it which is an incorrect assumption.
Yes the iPhone's earpiece volume is somewhat weak but apparently not for everyone to the extent of your complaint.
Within the first two weeks after purchasing the iPhone, I experienced occasional crackling through the earpiece with some calls only, not all.
I called AppleCare and after an hour on the phone trying various things - including the tech support person calling me on my iPhone to see if receiving a call made any difference over when placing a call - my iPhone was picked up and sent in for testing and repair or possible replacement. I was not informed about what was discovered as the cause of this particular problem but I was sent a new replacement iPhone in exchange. I haven't experienced the same earpiece crackling with the replacement and the earpiece volume seemed to be improved but it wasn't a night and day difference by any means.
Long story short and as already provided by another poster in this thread, I suggest calling AppleCare (800) 694-7466 to report this problem which is unacceptable to you. Your iPhone will be picked up for repair or possible replacement and if replaced and the replacement is no better and still not acceptable, you have a good chance of returning your iPhone for full credit without being charged a restocking fee.

    Has anyone else had this problem? if so have they found out how to fix it, or is this an on going issue?

    Hi,
    Your problem has some similarities to this problem that I reported earlier this month that that still arises every few days. I was thinking that my problem was related to some sort of bug in Entourage, but maybe it's something else...

    Using mountain lion operating system, downoaded iphoto 9.4 update, aperature 3.4.3 update and still cannot access photo stream.  now what??

    With Aperture, you should be able to use Photo Stream now, but you need iPhoto 9.4.2 > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1608
    After updating iPhoto to the latest version, open System Preferences > iCloud and tick Photo Stream. Finally, you will have to turn on Photo Stream on iPhoto and Aperture choosing Photo Stream on the sidebar of both programmes

  • HT5278 i did this update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though! ne1

    i did the ios5.1.1 update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though, and for my alarm. ne1 else had these problems?

    I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s.   Usually the solution is one of the following:
    1-  If  your volume indicator says  headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
    Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
    2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
    3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
    Hope one of these works for you

    Hello everyone,
    With Mac OS X 10.6.2 my isight is not recognized by my MacBook (2 GHz Intel Core Duo).
    I tried SMC resets, PMU resets, new installation of permissions and the installation of fixes from the following site:
    http://www.codium.co.nz/isight_fix/
    So far I had no success:

    Hello, Marko.
    You might want to restore you Mac's startup disk using a backup from before your ran the NZ iSight Fix. As noted on the page you link:
    Note on Snow Leopard: There have been mixed reports on this fix regarding Snow Leopard, it hasn't worked for many people, but it had for many others (including myself)...After having tried all relevant suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    and assuming your built-in iSight worked before you updated to 10.6.2, try the following:
    Use Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then download and install the
    Mac OS X v10.6.2 Update (Combo): http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
    Immediately after the restart that completes the update, repair permisssions again and test whether your problem persists.
    Properly applying relevant Combo Updates is so reliable for me that this is the only way I now update any of my Macs' OS X system software.

  • How can I stop ios 7.1.1 update and still sync and back my iphone4?

    iOS 7 wiped my iPhone 4 and I am still manually restoring the lost music,  photos ect that I can still find. I never want another update - yes apple I really think you don't gave a stuff about us, we can be forced to buy another phone and that'll boost your profits more so why would you care! Anyway the phone has downloaded but not applied the update. Next time on power my phone will be bricked! Yes I have back ups but iTunes lost those last time. And doubt they've done a fix for that! I've turned off auto sync in iTunes and it has been asking to do update which I decline as blew up my computer restoring from ios 7. If I try to backup and sync will the update happen? If so I need to dump apple as I cannot lose my phone and my pc again I am trying to do my finals! Apple treat your customers properly and test these updates properly as there are other options! Help!

    I had the same request and called Apple Store where I live yesterday and asked if there was any way to make this downgrade happen. But unfortunately not...

  • 10.7.3 Combo Updated and still no internet connectivity, 15" Early '11 MBP, Wi-Fi or ethernet

    Early 2011 15" MacBook Pro, 2.2Ghz i7, 8GB RAM
    I downloaded the 10.7.3 delta update on Saturday and installed it without issues. As soon as I started using it I was unable to connect to any internet conenction within OS X. Wi-Fi, Ethernet, nothing can connect to the internet, although I can connect to the router.
    I am able to connect to the internet using my Boot Camp Windows 7 partition, as well as through the Lion Recovery Disk's Safari Browser.
    I was able to download the 10.7.3 combo update as the hopeful solution to my problems using Windows 7.
    However, after installing it I am in no better position and my 10.7.3 install still has no access whatsoever to the internet.
    Looking for an urgent fix, and have tried most of the various forum suggestions (checking/unchecking settings, etc.) - all to no avail.
    Please help.

    I've been on 10.7.1 thru 10.7.3 and am still suffering from connectivity issues (brand new MBA running Lion). If you search using the keywords Lion Wifi Problems (or something to that effect) a lot pops up...one thread has almost 200k views and the other's got over 45k (other threads have a few hundred or a few thousand), just in the Apple Support area alone, ignoring the bloggers that have also raised this issue.
    The issue doesn't affect everyone running Lion, or all of a particular type of machine, but there are enough reports of Lion on different machines (upgrades to older machines, and pre-installed brand new ones, desktops and notebooks), using different routers, in different countries, etc., to show that this is a statistically significant problem, and that there's most certainly a bug in the OS. There are people running PCs and older OS versions and iOS on the same network, and the only thing with the problem is the machine running Lion. Unforunately, Apple has not officially acknowledged this problem, so for those of us who've tried everything and run out of options, we're stuck with what we've got - an expensive machine that can rarely/barely connect to the internet.
    There are some temporary fixes like logging out and logging back in (sometimes after logging into a different account), renewing the DHCP lease in network preferences, turning the router off and on again, reinstalling the OS, deleting all the remembered networks and passwords, deleting the preference file and letting it rebuild, changing the order of services in network preferences (e.g. so WiFi comes before Bluetooth), setting up a continuous ping so the network doesn't disconnect because there's no data transfer, etc., etc. For some people, this miraculously works, but for most, it's a quick fix or doesn't help at all.
    10.7.3 was supposed to address part of the issue (not finding a network when waking from sleep), but unfortunately hasn't for most people. I'm starting to think the only way this will get fixed is if people kick up enough of a fuss to mainstream media that they start to take notice and report on this. I would think that this is far worse a problem than the antenna issue, because these machines are more expensive, and lose connectivity regardless of how we hold them or where we take them. This is particularly frustrating for those of us who own machines that have no ethernet port, or are in places where the only option is WiFi.
    Best of luck with resolving this. Hopefully Apple will fix things soon!

  • 2.0.1 Update and Still Extremely S-L-O-W

    So I read the threads about 2.0 being slow. However, since the 2.0.1 update, despite the claim it was to fix that issue, mine is still extremely slow.
    In particular, applications like Contacts and SMS take a long time to open, before I can actually start using them. It takes a while to switch between screens and open apps. Typing can be a painful experience, sometimes hanging for several seconds before registering the last keystroke. Backspace can be a nightmare, since it doesn't delete as fast as it's pressed, resulting in unintentionally deleting an entire line once it catches up with the keystrokes.
    Having reset and restored, I'm at a loss since all of this was supposed to be fixed according to the 2.0.1 update.

    An interesting note from "iWork"
    Hello there,
    We have heard about your issue from the discussion thread below:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6305248?tstart=0
    We would like to know if you would be able to provide the following:
    - OSX and Pages versions
    - is iCloud file sync On for Pages
    - copy of a document that shows the slow issue with Pages
    - detals about workflow before the slow issue happened with Pages
    - is the file stored on the local hard drive or on a network serfer
    - are any apps, downlaods or backups in progress when Pages is open
    Thank you,

  • 10.7.2 update and still no thumbnail previews for my .RAW files?

    Well I updated lion to 10.7.2, and also updated iPhoto this evening and was hoping it would fix my .RAW image files not showing up as preview thumbnails in folders.
    But still have the issue of the .RAW image files being displayed as icons instead of preview thumbnails
    This is getting really annoying. It would be nice to see the .RAW image preview in the folders, like it used to in Snow lepard.
    Now I have to either get file info or open the .RAW files in Preview to see what the images are.

    Yes and no with Lion OS.
    I used to be able to mess with the icon size slider and this would sometimes make the preview thumbnail appear, but now since the update that trick no longer works and I just get the generic .RAW icon for all my RAW files.
    In finder, view options:  "show icon  preview" is checked and I messed with all the other settings as well with no solution.
    I never had this issue until I bought this new iMAC with Lion. My other iMacs with Snow Leopard work fine and display RAW preview thumbnails with no issues.

  • 10.3.9 update and still no epass Canada fix

    We Canadian Mac users still can't access our personal accounts at our National Government site - this should've been fixed weeks ago! Dare I say that if it had been ALL US MS users trying to access their personal accounts at the US government this would have been a priority. The way it stands, no Canadian using a Mac can access their National Government epass accounts.
    This is all we've been seeing for far too long now:
    (BTW, this includes all Mac browsers)
    Warning to Mac Safari users
    Unfortunately, access to epass Canada using a Mac Safari browser is temporarily unavailable. A recent software update distributed by Apple Computer Inc., caused an incompatibility with epass security components. Every effort is being made by epass Canada and Apple Computer Inc., to resolve this issue and restore your access to epass Enabled services.
    Until Apple Computer is able to provide a software update solution, epass Canada will be unable to support any Mac browser access. Please visit the Apple Computer support site at www.apple.com/support/ to obtain the latest updates before attempting to access epass Canada.
    With a solution expected in the very near future, your patience and cooperation is greatly appreciated.

    jawnl, this is what I found on the site:
    "Notice to Macintosh Safari users
    Access to epass Canada using a Mac Safari browser is temporarily unavailable. The Government of Canada is committed to offering the epass service to Mac Safari users as soon as technically possible. Until then, you can access our services by phone, fax, mail, or in person.
    We expect to have a solution in the very near future. In the meantime, your patience and co-operation are greatly appreciated. If you need more information on this issue, please contact the Government of Canada epass Client Service Centre at 1-866-372-7742 for calls within Canada and the United States or at (613) 948-2929 (collect) for calls outside Canada and the United States. The teletypewriter (TTY) number is 1-866-330-1890.
    Date modified: 2005-04-15"
    Since the information was modified just a few days ago, have you updated to Mac OS X(10.3.9) and Safari 1.3 to see if there is any difference? But what I don't understand is that the Canada Revenue Agency site says that Mac OS with Safari 1.2 and Java 1.4.2_05 is supported and so does the ePass Canada "Frequently Asked Questions."
