After I activate the iphone with an internet connection..

After I activate the iphone with an internet connection on my home computer, do I ever have to have internet on my home computer for my iphone to work? Like do I need the itunes store for my iphone if I'm never going to buy anything from it or can I just use the internet connection from my iphone? Because after I activate my iphone I was thinking about canceling my internet on my home computer because I'll have it on my iphone..would that work? Thanks!

As posted above me here. One of the Requirements for an iPhone is a PC and an Internet Connection.
1. iPhone needs Internet to communicate with the servers when you do any iPhone Updates
2. iPhone needs Internet to communicate with the servers when doing a restore
3. iPhone uses internet when you connect to iTunes to confirm you are an AT&T User so you can see your number in the Summary screen
Also if you ever want to put music, tv shows, podcasts etc. On iPhone most of this comes from the iTunes Store so that requires the Internet to download the content.
Also if you want to take advantage of WiFi in your home then you need active internet if you got a Wireless Router
If you do not use Internet on a PC allot, Check into a cheap DSL package and that should suite your needs for using the internet only when you need it.

Is there a way that I can control iTunes with the iPhone without any internet connections?

First let me say that I am ready to throw this POS in the lake. Is there a way that I can control iTunes with my iPhone without any internet connections? On my houseboat I have a wifi router and want to connect my phone to my computer to control my music which plays from my computer through my stereo. I can easily do it with my laptop without having to jump through any internet APPLE BS , but I dont want to have my laptop out on the deck. I just want to use the phone as a remote control.
Remote wont do it because it keeps saying Im not connected to the internet, even though is is connected to my computer. Same problem with JumiAmp.

It should have an option to manage iTunes library without network connection, like Bluetooth or connect directly to the computer without a router or wi-fi, i live outsite of the city and i dont have the ability to control my iTunes librry from the iphone

Download CC versions for installation on a computer with no internet connection

So I have just signed up with CC as I am wanting to get Photoshop and lightroom
So I have a computer with no internet access, and so I would like to download the CC versions of the software on my work computer.
Once downloaded, I will install the software on the computer with no internet connection, then utilise my mobile phone to teither the computer to the internet to register the products.
So my question is how do this?
Downloading the software using the manager on my phones internet is not an option. (with 300mb per month quota on the phones not an option)
I am wanting the CC features of photoshop not CS6 so registering the cs6 version is not an option.
Also when updates come out for CC where can download those.
(we have had a change of govt so I might get 24mb/s internet in 2019)
thanks

Hi Paul,
Welcome to the Community!
You can certainly download the files on a different machine and install on a computer without internet however you should connect to internet once in a month so that we can charge your credit card.
The option to connect to internet with phone will work however updates needs to be downloaded via internet as the size might be in GB's.
To download the executable files, visit this page http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.html. Remeber to follow the Very Important instructions or else the download will not start.
Thanks!

I want to ask that if some one restore iphone and the icloud is activited before it was last so the can activate the iphone and after restore can we track it

i want to ask that if some one restore iphone and the icloud is activited before it was last so the can activate the iphone and after restore can we track it

No.
If the iPhone is running iOS 7, activation lock included with iOS 7 will prevent someone from restoring the iPhone or completing the process.
If the iPhone can be restored, it cannot be restored from the iPhone's backup - only as a new iPhone or not from the backup.

WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

Hi,
WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

The answer to your question is - neither!
Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

Can't activate the iPhone 3GS after updating to iOS 5

Hi All,
I updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5 and i got the setup screen for the language and region and eventually i can't activate the iPhone
as the iTunes says " there is no sim card installed in the iphone that you are attempting to activate "
However the iPhone is already unlocked and i've been using it with 4.3.3 and also 4.3.5 and it was absolutely fine.
Now i keep rebooting it and removing the sim card (which is working on another handset alreay) and it says the same msg
PLEASE HELP !!

First off, if you're using stuff like Redsnow and Ultrasnow you have violated any kind of warranty you had. This is no longer Apple's problem so look for help elsewhere. Second, you should have known that if you try to upgrade an illegally jailbroken or unlocked phone with the stock apple update, you would lose both the unlock and jailbreak. Obviously you're baseband is messed up and if you flashed it with the iPad 6.15 baseband you're out of luck ever trying to update the iOS version legitimately since you can't undue a baseband flash. You should have known that before you started messing with it. So either get a legit contract with AT&T, sprint or Verizon or try to salvage your mess through a jailbreaking/unlocking forum. You won't get any help here my friend.

Try deleting the account(s) you're having problems with, resetting your phone (hold on/off and home buttons simultaneously 10-15 seconds until Apple logo appears, release buttons and wait for it to restart), then add back your mail accounts. I've read that this has worked for some.

That is because that sync ability (for contacts and calendars) has been removed. Use iCloud instead.
