2 times faster, half the price. but 10 times slower to active

Apple should consider other schemes to get folks want to buy an iphone flow through its stores quicker instead of averaging 3 hrs of waiting + activation.
For example, Apple can sell iphone at full price, then if you go home and activate iphone with AT&T, you get refund from AT&T for the price difference......etc.
It is Apple's reputation to lose even if AT&T is the bottleneck.
Think about this from another angle, if Apple want to sell 10 million phones. It will be 30 million human hrs wasted. This is NOT Apple like experience at all.

It only took me 10 minutes to get the entire process done at my local AT&T store on Sunday before I was out the door with my iPhone fully functional. So far of the people I know that have gotten new iPhones the ones who had the problems were the ones that went to Apple stores. Not sure what it is but there are stories all over the net saying Apple employees are constantly getting failed activations and always on the phone with AT&T.
Edit - And yes, as users there is nothing we can do. You should give Apple some feedback with the link above.

    It is up to you. It depends what you want to use the iPod for.

  • I read on the website that the update 4.0 was supposed to work faster than the last but I that since I updated (2 days ago) my work in firefox has become quite sluggish. Any suggestions?

    Hi there. I upgraded to firefox 4 on Monday (two days ago) since I saw that the new version was supposed to run faster than firefox 3 that I was using. However, since I've started using it, I wait longer for a page to download than I had to before and the whole browser just is sluggish to respond. Any suggestions?

    Sounds like it either believes that there are headphones plugged in, or the switch is broken.
    Why in the world would you take it to Best Buy for service? Take it to an Apple Store. They can replace it on the spot if it's defective.

  • Firefox apparently doesn't start from the icon, but it says it is active when the computer is shut down.

    Apparently Firefox is running, but I can't see any evidence of this on the screen. When I reboot the computer, usually I can call up and use Firefox as usual. This is quite a nuisance, as it happens several times an hour. No notification of a crash is provided, ever.

  • HT201363 I would like to log into an old Apple ID account and forgot the password but it is no longer active and I forget the answers to the security questions. How do I log in?

    I Want my music from my old Apple ID account but I can't remover my password and the email is not active so I can't log onto it. I don't remember my security question answers. What should I do? Am I logged out forever?

    You need to ask Apple to reset its security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • Firefox loads the app but is extremely slow

    I always used Firefox as my browser to run an app (rock you game) on facebook without any problems. For 3-4 weeks it has been extremely slow, the page loads but very slowly, and then every "mouse click" takes at least 30 seconds to respond and execute. Sometimes it just blocks and I have to reload. I tested it on Google Chrome, and it works perfectly fine. I already cleared my cookies, updated my plug ins, did reset, and even re-installed Firefox. Nothing seems to work. Can you please help me? Thanks

  • The music on my nano is not playing properly, I can hear the song but it is slow and not the way it is meant to sound.

    I have used the online help and reset my ipod but that still doesn't work and it was working fine this morning and is fully charged.

    Did you try a complete restore of the device in iTunes? Perhaps tried a different set of headphones before doing that?  Does this only happen with particular songs or all of them?

  • I thought ff4 was suppose to be faster than 3.6 but it is slower loading and getting to websites. Are ther certain add-ons that could be affecting ff4 that did not affect 3.6?

    ff4 generally slower loading and loading pages.

    same problem here for the past two days till this morning when I created a new profile and removed ALL addons from the default profile. With the new profile with NO addons, I got to the sites with video that I had problem with and flash player did work.
    Now, I only have three addons that have not created the problem; adblock, flashgot, and flashblock.
    Create a new profile and check it out.

  • Moving and renaming clips in the Project Window is EXTREMELY slow, but the rest of the program is fine?! PPro CS6

    I have Win7 Pro X64 with  Core i7 and 32GB RAM...
    When I'm editing and doing other things, adding FX etc, the program works fine BUT when I do ANYTHING in the Program Window i.e. renaming clips, moving clips, etc the program acts as if it's bogged down... I can't for the life of me figure this one out... 
    I don't have a large number of clips/footage items
    I've cleaned the cache
    What else could be causing this? When I say slow, I mean a good 10 seconds before the program responds to anything I've done, and when renaming clips, I always have to do it twice because the first time it doesn't "take"
    Thanks all for any help!
    Aza

    It occurs with or without clips in a sequence... the problem isn't the sequences, the problem ONLY occurs in the Project Panel, every other panel is as fast as my machine will allow (very fast) only the PROJECT Panel is EXTREMELY slow when moving clips into folders, etc
    ALSO, all my drives and preferences are set up the same in every project, only THIS project is moving slowly... I even divided the project up into 4 separate projects to cut down on the number of clips in each project, and it still moves slow... almost as if something has carried over to each project, or something

    Is there any Multiplication happening in the condition type or any other conditions executes. Please check those..
    Another way is, if always  a multiplication of 10 is happening then pass the value by dividing it by 10. But this way is not a nice way or programming...
    Check out both and let me know if not working.
    Cheers,
    Thomas.

  • I deleted my note by accident i do have notes on icloud. so i had half the note saved but the other half was very important and hard to right. i restored my ipod on i cloud back up but it still doesnt show i put so much time in that anyway to get it back?

    How did you delete the Note? If you did a "select all" and "cut", open the Note and shake your iPhone to undo the cut action.
