Another iPhone 5 question. Apple store upgrade.
Hello,
I currently have several unused upgrades on my Verizon account, I’m going to be buying an iphone 5 at an apple store on launch day. I’ve never purchased from any store other than a Verizon store before. I was just wondering if I might encounter any difficulties upgrading my phone at their store, I realize I'll no longer have my unlimited data grandfathered over. I was just wondering if anyone knows how the process works at the Apple store if I'm eligible for an upgrade.
thanks.
You will not encounter any issues. Just make sure that your bill is up to date prior to going into the store.

this is the error it gives me :/ how will i go about deleting my old iphone if i dont have it??
This should clear up on its own and allow you to delete the account, however it can take 3-5 days before this happens.

Dear sir
I bought my iPhone 4 from Apple store in Charlotte N/C about 2years ago without contract.
Now I tried to upgrade it to iOS 7.0.4.but after that my phone not work with last sim card.
And invalid sim appeared.so I bought it without contract but it seems to be lock in my country
Please tell me whats the matter?
My phone serial no 86034HTCA4T
Modem firmware 04.12.09
ThanksWithout contract is not the same as unlocked. The update to iOS 7 relocked
the iPhone to the wireless carrier to which it was originally locked. You must
contact that wireless carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
If you used jailbreak or other hack to unlock the iPhone initially, the method
used may prevent a legitimate unlock from succeeding and may render your
iPhone unuseable. -
Can I use it in another country?
Not sure what factory unlocked really implies..With restriction and proper procedure, you can probably use the iPhone in another country. As KiltedTim mentioned, you've failed to provide us with sufficient information. Since you bought the iPhone form an Apple store, why didn't you speak with someone at the store?

i had to replace my i4s phone with another one from the apple store. i need to download all my contact info and other stuff from the cloud to my new phone.i see a screen that says RESTORE I PHONE and are you sure you want to restore the iphone to its facory settings? all of your media and other data will be erased. they i tunes will verify restore with apple. After this you will have the option to restore your contacts and other settins. The question is will it restore my first phones info? I am hesitant to delete anything lol.
No. If you made your backup to iCloud, iTunes will not restore from an iCloud backup. See:

IPhone purchase at Apple Store
Is there any difference when purchasing an iPhone at the Apple Store for the Verizon account?

As I stated in another post .... I was due for upgrade and a $50 discount.
Because I ordered through Apple .... Verizon told me I don't get the discount! .... That's just wrong! I waited as a loyal VZW customer for the iPhone .... and they just **bleep** on me for it.
No they didn't. Yes, you purchased the iPhone but you didn't purchase it from Verizon. You went through another retailer (Apple). If you read the details about the NE2 it says that the credit may not be available at all retailers (may be a different word used...sorry can't recall exactly). If I'm not mistaken if you purchased at Best Buy it would be the same. The NE2 is a Verizon incentive for when you purchase and upgrade your device with them. Yes, you upgraded, but not with Verizon. You just retained the service with them...Apple made the sale. It sucks, but it's not surprising.
It's possible that you may be able to talk them into giving you the credit anyway...someone on this forum claimed to have pulled this off, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it. -
I am Stella from Indonesia.
i bought my iphone 5s in Apple Store in America, and I use it in Indonesia. i compare the camera with iphone 5 then i realize that my camera is more darker, and not HD, then i compare my camera with another iphone 5S, and thats so much deferent. How can it be and what should i do? i bought it in Apple Store, so i am really sure my iphone is original.To make sure that this is not software related, set it up as new device without using a backup, also make sure that the lens is not covered by a case or protective film.
Then check the camera function again. If the quality is still not that good, this could be hardware related and the phone has to be serviced. In your case this could be a problem, because you'll have to bring the phone back to the USA to get it checked by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider. The warranty is only valid in the country where the phone has been bought, and Apple does not accept international shipments.

Dear sir I have 2 iPhones , I downloaded find my iphone and find out there is another iPhone on my Apple ID and in another location in same city Erbil which I live and I tried to use lost mode but it is still not stopped
It could be that someone has accessed your AppleID/iCloud account with out authorization. Or it could be that you forgot to remove find my iPhone form a phone that your previously owned.
Change your Apple ID password. -
I'm visiting new York(USA) for work on Sunday, just wanted to know if i can buy an un locked iphone from the apple store or not, since i'm not a resident, to the record we don't have an apple store at my country.
You can buy an unlocked iPhone at any of the 5 Apple stores in NYC. All are open on Sunday. Note a couple of things, however:
US iPhone 5's will work on 3G in the rest of the world, but not on LTE because the US phones use different channels than other countries
Be sure you say "unlocked", not "no contract"
If it breaks it must be returned to a US store for repair, and if shipped to Apple it must be from and to a US address -
I recently had to replace my 2009 Macbook Pro's hard drive. I had the apple store upgrade the OS to Mountain Lion while it was in being repaired. I want to restore all of my old data and files. If I perform a restore from Time Machine, with a date prior to having the hard drive replaced, will it revert back to the old OS?
No, it won't revert to the prior OS X but you you may have third party apps installed that were compatible with Lion that may not be compatible with Mountain Lion.

After you restore from TM, check HD > Incompatible Software -
its availble to get unblocked iphone 4s from apple store ? if yes what about its price ? if not can u help me to get it .
Pricing hasnt been announced as far as I know, but the Apple Store said unlocked iPhones will be available in November. Seeing as its the 30th of October, maybe check back within the next week or two?
Cost will probably be somewhere between $550-900 US depending on model/storage space. -

hi, my name is Laith I'm from Iraq I just want to know what are the steps for buying a new iphone 5 from apple store and how to ship it to Iraq ???? and I would be grateful for you
Legality aside (I'm not a lawyer and have no opinion on the matter) in order to make a purchase of an iPhone 5 you would need to travel to a country where they are for sale and purchase it there. Be sure to get one that is officially unlocked or you would not be able to use it with your cell carrier. Be sure that your carrier supports use of the iPhone before you buy. Also note that the warranty of the iPhone is only valid in the country of purchase.
Appe does not ship outside of the countries where it sells the phones. -
Hello I bought my iPhone from liverpools apple store, I put a giffgaff cArd inside and it locked my phone into 02 network. I contacted o2 as you suggested and they told me that they didn't lock my iPhone. Please find me some help
I guess you mean unlock the device. To lock it would mean to be possible to se it only with one carrier.
So no, unlocking the device must be done by the original carrier, you should contact them to do that. -
For instance, who is this kid? He's on all the iPhones in the apple stores right now. There are about 20 photos of him in an album. Anyone know?
1. If you break your post into paragraphs it is much easier to read.
2. I have no idea what your post is referring to, and how - if at all - it relates to iPhoto.
3. It's a good idea to re-read what you've posted, and ask yourself how it might look to someone who doesn't know you and doesn't know what's going on with your machine. -
Is the iPhone 5 at Apple Stores to see yet?
Is the iPhone 5 at Apple Stores to see yet?
I want to see the iPhone in person before I preorder. I'm deciding between black and white.
ThanksNo. It will be put on display in Apple Stores the night before the 21st.
You will just have to look at the press pictures that Apple has on their website.
