Another iPhone upgrade question.

Does anyone know if they are allowing people to transfer upgrades betweens lines to pre order the iPhone on Feb 3?  My line isn't eligible, but a different line on my plan is.  I don't want to have to upgrade with that line and then transfer the phone.  I want to be able to transfer the upgrade like I have done in the past.  Has anyone heard if this will be able to be done?

If you read the threads and Verizon's own pre-release publicity, it is NOT possible to do an alternate upgrade for pre-orders on the the 3rd. ONLY lines eligible for an upgrade or those paying full price will be able to pre-order on the 3rd.
Options are to pre-order on the 3rd (if you must), activate on the eligible line and swap it out, or wait until the 10th when it is officially released and then order using an alternate upgrade....

  • Another iPhone bumper question. Please look!!!

    Right I'm afraid this is yet another iPhone bumper complaint. But I need some additional help or support.
    Right I brought my iPhone 4 last august and has just expired it's warranty, I do not have any additional cover plans either. In late august 2010 I signed up for my free iPhone bumper to help improve my signal issues. I have recently taken off my bumper to discover my steel antenna band unfortunately scratched quite bad. I've inspected the bumper inside and I've seen like a small peice of rough plastic sticking out and a scratch Mark in the same position on the iPhones band, and there are other scratches from the case too.
    Now I would like to know if I could get my antenna band replaced by apple? Free or at a cost? Also does anybody know of an email address I can use to contact apple or the correct phone number as I cannot make sense of their 'contact me' section on their website, I'm from the UK.  An email would be preferred if possible. I have also seen on some discussions that people have had their iPhones replaced weather apple still do this I don't know? So any feedback would be so greatly appreciated as I'm disappointed my phone now looks like this as i will be looking to upgrade to the new iPhone and sell this one.
    Thanks in advance
    Alex

    All cases scratch all iPhones, from the Original to the iPhone 4. This is a side-effect of the overall protection they provide. Dust dirt and debris get inside the case and cause abbrasions, there is really no way to avoid this, cleaning helps but can't stop every bit of wear.
    Put the bumper back on your iPhone, it will protect it, and make it look nice.

  • Another RAM upgrade question

    Hi everyone,
    I know there seems to be lots of RAM upgrade questions here but hey thats what forums are for.
    I'm looking to upgrade my macbook's RAM it's currently got 2GB (2x1GB)
    Is it possible to purchase 1x4GB and put that with one of my current 1GB sticks to create a total of 5GB?
    I would be interested to know if this is possible or if anyone has tried it.
    Thanks in advance
    Scott

    This will work if your MacBook is late '07 or newer.

  • 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.

  • Iphone upgrading question

    Ok so I purchased my Iphone 3g back in April of last year. When I called ATT they said I was able to upgrade my phone. I also did the *629# or whatever it is and that also says I can upgrade..im just wondering how so? I mean I only had the phone for a lil over a year. Does this sound correct? It does say Ill have to sign another 2 year contract..which is fine. Any help is appreciated. First time to post so sorry if I did something wrong.

    I'm not clear what your question is. Are you asking why AT&T is giving you the upgrade price, as if your feel undeserving? Or, are you really worried that they gave you misinformation on 2 separate occasions, by 2 different methods, only to be faked out when you place the pre-order?

  • IPhone upgrade question

    Hi,
      Not sure where this should be asked, hoping this is ok here!
      I'm looking to upgrade to iPhone 5, if that's what it's called.  When I do a *639#, I get full retail pricing and the same if I go online.  But, when I went by a AT&T store they said, I can get a reduced rate, cost of the phone plus 250 and 36 activation fees. I'm confused on why it's like that in the store but not online?  Any clarification would be grateful.
         Thanks, Jerry

    That is a good question for ATT since whatever is reported online is reported by ATT.
    ATT offers an early upgrade subsidized price which is not their full subsidized price. This is for those who have a fully subsidized phone currently which has not been used under contact long enough for ATT to offer their full subsidized price.

  • Iphone upgrading questions

    ok so i have a blackberry storm 2 right now my plan isn't up for another year and a half but i want 2 get the iphone when it comes out, so if i get the iphone will i be paying full retail or can i extend my plan another 2 years and get it at 199 or 299???

    No you'll have to pay full retail ($649 for the 16GB and $749 for the 32GB).
    Your other options are selling your current phone, then using the money from that to offset the iPhone's retail price, or cancelling your contract, then signing up again for a new contract with an iPhone. The downside to this is that you will lose your phone number, and have to start your contract over (2 more years). But, this will save you about $150.
    I recommend seeing how much your phone sells for on sites like ebay and cowboom, to get an idea of how much you can expect to pay out of pocket for your iPhone.
    Edit: a third option - which will only work on a family plan - is to add another line ($10 per month) and buy an iPhone on it. Then, make the iPhone the primary account holder. Find a cheap, used Verizon "dumbphone" for around $20, and use that on the line that used to be for your Blackberry. 
    This way, you are only paying $10 a month extra, plus the $20 or so upfront cost for the used dumbphone.

  • Another iphone wifi question

    I set up my iphone to connect over wifi. It won't connect to youtube or the internet except for Google. I can update weather and access the router settings through the phone. It will still connect over edge. Any solutions to this problem?

    I found the answer in another post. I have a Belkin router and this is what I did and got it to work:
    Now go to the WiFi settings in your iPhone and under your network press "Static."
    In the IP address put 192.168.2.50
    The Subnet Mask should read 255.255.255.0
    The Router should read 192.168.2.1
    In the DNS put 4.2.2.2
    Thanks for replying.

  • Another iPhone disabled question :-/

    Hi All,
    So I have disbled my iPhone 4s by forgetting my passcode (like it seems many other people do!). Also as the phone went dead as I was away for the weekend the SIM is also locked. I have often backed it up to iCloud but I never had the camera roll back up option ticked as I cannot see it when I sign into iCloud. I dont have iTunes on my laptop or access to the original iTunes where it was synced a year and a half ago.
    My question is can I get the phone unlocked by Apple? ( I have the IMEI number and proof of purchase) Is there any way of keeping or getting my photos/videos and messages? When I had my phone plugged into the laptop and was clicking backup through wifi will this have also backed up my photos?
    Thanks!

    The phone is not locked, it is disabled.
    Connect it to any computer with iTunes installed and restore as new.
    Then restore from the iCloud backup.
    The picture roll is gone as you've chosen to not back it up.

  • Another iTunes upgrade question - Pls Help!!

    Hi,
    Like so many others i too am having problems with the latest update of iTunes. I installed it - no problems. BUT when i went to run it, it wouldn't open. I read in some other threads that i should try and turn off my firewall protection (norton) which i did. When the firewall is off iTunes opens. However when i go to turn the firewall back on - iTunes doesn't open again. And when i try to 'configure' the firewall it freezes.
    I'm getting increasingly frustrated and would really appreciate some help.
    I use Windows XP and Norton anti-virus, internet security and firewall.
    Any help at all would be great. Thanks

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one with this problem. I had the exact problem. My iTune had been working perfectly until I upgraded to 6.0. Now my iTune won't open and every time I try to open up my Norton Internet Security, my computer freezes. Also, whenever I try to shut down my computer, it also freezes. I was up all night trying to fix the problem and it drove me nuts!! Finally, I thought maybe my computer was infected with virus, so my friend, who is a computer technician, took it and he is cleaning it up. After reading the posted messages, I'm so glad that I'm not the only person with this problem. I think Apple needs to come up with a solution quick, otherwise, there are going to be a lot of angry people out there. When I get my computer back, I may try to get McAfee instead of Norton. Have you read the other postings and try some of their suggestions, ie msconfig?

  • Another iphone hack question

    after my recent paranoia of someone having personal photos of mine because I think they have hacked into my phone, I was reading an article that was card 2011 and it was for this spy software that you don't need to have access to the phone to hack it that the hacker installs it their phone and they call the phone number they want to hack and bam bam it's done. Is this true or had the recent iOS updates dating back two years ago to now have fixed this?

    No, that cannot be done unless your iPhone is hacked/jailbroken.

    Anyone know of any problems i might have? maybe having to restart my 2 year contract with at&t for some reason?

    Good question.
    I believe that your SIM card should be interchangeable between your old 4GB iPhone and your new 8GB iPhone. Of course, if you take your SIM out of the old 4G what will the buyer of your 4G use for a SIM card to get started - are you planning to give him the non-registered SIM from the 8G that you get?
    If not, how do you expect him to get a SIM card unless you expect him to have to buy one from AT&T?
    I think that if the old SIM works, there should be no need to restart your two (2) year contract but first the old SIM needs to work.
    Let us know what happens.

  • Security upgrade question - Getting 6.1.6 downloaded to iphone.

    Security upgrade question - I have a 4S phone v6.01 with an upgrade to IOS 7.04 already downloaded and ready for install.  I would like to install the 6.1.6 security upgrade instead. How do I delete the ios7 in the queue or have the 6.1.1 pushed as an option to the phone?

    You can't install iOS 6.1.6 on that device and must update it to 7.0.6.
