Any experience buying a new contract from Amazon Wireless?

So I'm currently contemplating switching from my current network over to Verizon Wireless and using the sale on Amazon Wireless where every phone is a penny with a new activation. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience getting a contract through amazon wireless and would give some feedback on their system. Should I go through Amazon to get my contract with Verizon or would I better off paying for the phone and going to a physical store to get up my contract?

If you buy through Amazon, you will sign 2 contracts, one with Verizon to maintain your line of service for 2 years and one with Amazon to keep that particular phone active and not change your plan for 6 months. If you think you may need to make changes to your plan, or you'll want to activate another phone within that first 6 months, then you'll want to go directly through Verizon, or through another retailer that doesn't ask you to sign that type of contract.

I'm an existing Verizon customer eligible to upgrade my iPhone. Can I buy the new iPhone from any retailer or must I buy through Verizon ?

I'm eligible to upgrade my current iPhone at a discount. I do want to stay with Verizon. Can I buy the new iPhone from any retailer or must I buy it through Verizon only ?

Congrats on your upcoming upgrade yvon1012. This phone is awesome. You can buy it from any retailer and connect it to your Verizon account. Make sure this phone is compatible with our network. If you are eligible for a discount, you can purchase your new phone for a low amount via my verizon online http://bit.ly/xB4iTc .

BUY A NEW COMPUTER FROM GET A REFURBISH ONE BACK

I bought a laptop brand new and had issues with the wifi and ethernet connecting to the internet.I spent numerous days and hours trying to get this resolved over the phone before finally getting in touch with someone who suggested in having the computer sent off to the repair factory.This computer was sent out in new condition plastic still on it used only a matter of a couple of hours and shipped back in the same non working position with the plastic peeled off.I was directed to a case manager by the name of Richard who was very short offered no apology or incentive for the situation I was in nor a replacement considering the pc had not functioned correctly at any given time.He made me ship the pc back and promised that the computer would be fixed this time.I reshipped the computer back out and received it yesterday and it was still not fixed.I called back and after spending several hours on the phone yesterday was told that he would have to contact me back at his earliest convenience 24-48 hours.This morning by noon I had not received a call from Richard so I called in and after spending an hour on the phone I finally got him.I apologized for being upset the first time around he then asked what the situation was? I was floored to know that he hadn't even seen my caseAfter explaining my situation for the 4th time today he said all he could do is send me a refurbish computer no incentive no apology nothing.I asked if I could switch to a desktop or just get credit and he denied me that.He refuse to help me in a manner that was professional and again was short and rude about it.So today after all the hp products I have invested in I will be receiving a refurbish unit after buying a new unit from your company and taking back the current desktops I have purchased and replacing them with macs since my experience with them has been much more appreciated and respected.I will be ridding myself of all affiliation to your company because of the horrible experience that I have received from customer service, supervisors and case managers who are employed at your company as well as sharing my experience with other people in my profession and friends who have or are thinking about purchasing a new computer.I email you because I hope that unlike many of the other people in your company you actually care but either way this has been the most absolutely horrible experience to date in my pc buying experience.Regards,NEVER MAKING THE MISTAKE OF BUYING ANYTHING FROM HERE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I buy a new iPad4 from the apple online store will it ship with ios6?

I let a so called "friend" borrow my iPad and the **** went an updated the OS to ios7.
Dispite restoring from a backup on my computer ios7 remains, rendering it usless for work.
If I buy a new iPad from the Apple Online Store will it certainly ship with ios6?
No guesses please.
Many thanks.

I don't believe there is any correlation between the serial number and the version of iOS, but the sales person may be able to tell you when the unit was received into their stock. If it was before September 18th, it certainly should have iOS 6.

As I said you need to:
You need to wipe the hard disk and reinstall the OS by booting into the recovery partition and reinstall the original OS via the internet. It will ask you to enter your ID

If I have iWork 09, will I have to buy the new app from the mac store?

I already have iWork 09 on my computers. Will I have to buy the new app from the App Store?

Larry,
After you install Mavericks, run Software Update. You should be offered the updates in the normal update mode. No charge.

I am planning to buy the New Ipad from Apple online store. Can I purchase the unlocked version because the online store gives me the option of US carriers ONLY?

I just uploaded my iTunes library to the cloud using iTunes Match. When I buy a new song from iTunes, is it automatically put in the Cloud or do I have to push iTunes Match. I certainly don't want to upload the whole library again. Thanks

It should do so automatically, if not check it's staus this way.
In iTunes press "Command J" or select "View Options," under the view menu. In the popup window check iCloud Status. It will now appear as one of the columns in your main iTunes window.
This column will show which of your songs are matched, uploaded, ineligible, etc.
When you navigate to the song you downloaded you will see it's iCloud status.
If the status says, "waiting," and you want it available on Match now, then in the iTunes "Store," menubar pulldown, select "Update iTunes Match."
It will scan your drive, and update all status'.
You will not have to upload everything again.
Even if in iTunes you turn Match off, and back on again.
Match remembers you!

From individual to family plan (one phone from Amazon wireless, the other an Iphone)

Alright, stay with me here.
My fiance and I are currently on separate family plans with our respective parents. We are about to start our own plan together, but her family's contract ends a few months after mine.
I want to get the HTC incredible 2 from Amazon wireless. I would have to start an individual plan because she's not ready to switch over.
She wants to get an Iphone, which you can't get through Amazon wireless. We'd have to go to Verizon, best buy, etc.
Can we easily go from having me on an individual plan to a family plan? And would she still get the rebate for the Iphone (making it only $200)?
Thank you.

Do you want to keep your current phone numbers? If so, you will need to do an Assumption of Liability for each line to transfer them from their current account into your name. It's a simple process, and free, you just call or visit a Verizon store with the current account owner and do the paperwork. Verizon will do a credit check, and you may have to pay a deposit.
If you do an AoL, your contract end date stays the same, and you keep your current number. You could do an AoL now, upgrade your phone when it is eligible, and then move your wife's phone over whenever you're ready (with another AoL). You don't have to wait for the contract to end. Doing an AoL and starting a Family Share plan with the transferred line is also easy, they can probably take care of it for you at the same time.
Each line on your plan will have its own contract, so if you want to upgrade at different times and/or at different places, you can do that.

Buying the new ipad from Israel

What would be the best channel to order the device?
Should I be buying from US or from EU ?
I'm confused by the fact that the US models are assosiated with a specific carriar, while the EU models don't seem to be carrying this assosisation.
Also - Does the purchase location in any way affects the warrenty?

Guys,
I understand bouhady problem completly and infact have the same one myself.
For the holidays a coworker of mine is travaling to US, he will be staying with his relatives near this Apple store http://www.apple.com/retail/theoaks/
I would like to purchase the new iPad and have my friend pick it up, sadly I don't know the correct process to "authorize" my friend to pick the device for me.
Also I don't know how I need to pay for the device, can I pay with my credit card or do I need to give him the money?
Would it be better to have Applie deliver the order to his relatives home perhpas?
Help from someone who has purchase like this pefore would be very appreciated.
Also as bouhady mentioned, our local applie representitive (sadly not applie itself) is not yet selling the new iPad http://www.idigital.co.il/ so we can't buy it here. Also, I would preffer buying from Apple officially as some people have said: "This one is for Steve".
So guys, that is the status.

Buying a new computer from the Apple Store

I know someone who is interested in getting a new computer (probably an iMac) who is a retired teacher. Do you think she will be able to get an educational discount?
She is upgrading to make use of FireWire 800 (her current iMac only has FW400 ports) Also, are there any Macs available yet that use USB 3.0 ?
If she buys a tower, will she be able to upgrade to USB 3.0 at a later time?

The official terms of eligibility for educational discounts in the US can be found here:
http://storeimages.apple.com/1953/store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/salespolicie sEdIndividual.html
They say that someone has to be a current employee of an educational instution; retirees are not eligible. The terms in other countries may differ.
There are no Macs at this time that offer USB 3.0. If she buys a Mac Pro, yes, she can add a USB 3.0 PCI card, at least one example of which is available now. It will not be possible to add a USB 3.0 card to any other Mac (since no other Mac has slots), though it's not impossible that someone will come up with a Thunderbolt to USB 3.0 converter. Sonnet Technologies has announced a Thunderbolt expansion chassis that would probably accept a USB 3.0 PCI card, but that's starting to get a bit pricey.

Any experience buying mini-dv tapes in bulk?

Any concerns/advice with buying tape in bulk or preferred vendors? It seems to be a much less expensive way to purchase tapes.

I buy in bulk from:
http://tapestockonline.com
Bulk is the only way to go to get reasonable prices.
I never reuse a tape as it increases the chances of dropuout. When you can get good tapes for about $2.65 each, it isn't worth the risk of reusing a tape.
I have seen that claim that switching brands can cause problems. I've also read that is not supposed to be a problem any more. Regardless, I stick with one brand (Maxell) just to be safe.

A bad experience buying a new iPhone 4s

I bought a new iPhone 4s on jan 23rd, well, never used!
I downloaded everything from ITunes, (I have experienced apple iPod, so I do know what I did!!!)
I've never used it because it doesn't work when finding the mobile operator which is Vodafone.
I tried with others mobile operators too but, anything! Now my iPhone is in a support services, I underline : NEVER USED!!!!
vodafone itself sent me an email saying me that the procedure started and for any questions write them, well I wrote them after a week, but no answer.
NOW HOW MAY I HAVE AN ANSWER?
HOW MAY I HAVE AN EXPLANATION?
IS IT A PROBLEM BY APPLE OR BY VODAFONE?
more, I know that Apple itself in this cases could change the iPhones.
could it be possible in my case?
What to do besides wait for?
thanks for any answer!

Should I buy a new battery from a third party vendor?

Hello,
I am totally new to this portion of support and to the world of laptops so please bear with me for a moment. I don't think I need a new battery yet but I did some research on-line and the general consensus seems to be that Apple and batteries don't mix. Should I go with a 3rd party battery? I want to have a spare in case I need it.
Thank you in advance for your advice.

If you don't need a spare battery now, there is little reason to get one. LiIon batteries deteriorate a small amount whether you use it or not, so the common wisdom goes. You can buy replacements online overnight if you have no store nearby, so I see little reason to have spares on hand unless absolutely critical. I would have no problem with Apple or Newertech Nupower batteries myself, but even they can go bad at variable times. A 6 month (Apple, I think) or 1 year warranty (Newertech) is about all you can expect. I would question others, especially ones that are too cheap. Counterfeits are very easy to make.
